del Toro: Good-bye Tolkien, hello Lovecraft.
Ok, I think damn near everyone knows that Guillermo del Toro is no longer directing THE HOBBIT films. So what is his next project?
Deadline is reporting that H.P. Lovecraft's AT THE MOUNTAINS OF MADNESS will be the basis for his next film.
The Barren, windswept interior of the Antarctic plateau was lifeless–or so the expedition from Miskatonic University thought. Then they found the strange fossils of unheard-of creatures…and the carved stones tens of millions of years old…and, finally, the mind-blasting terror of the City of the Old Ones.
The planned film will be shot in 3D with James Cameron as a co-producer. Sound goods to me. It is about time that a decent film was made from Lovecraft's material.

April ain't no month to be actin a fool…it's EARTH MONTH!
As a planet Earth lovahhh, I am super excited that April is right around the corner. What better way to show some love for our beautiful and magical home then by participating in an Earth Month Challenge. I feel like when we were kids, we did all sorts of activities to promote a healthy planet and clean lifestyle. As we've gotten older, those activities have decreased tremendously in our lives… and that's completely bogus!
I wanted to share with y'all this [super sweet, but I'm biased because I totally made it] 30-day Earth Month Challenge, where we all can encourage ourselves, friends, and families to take small initiatives to better our planet. Keep reading to find learn about my April 2018 – Earth Month Challenge, and how you and your #squad can get involved.
April 2018 – Earth Month Challenge Ideas:
1. Calculate your Carbon Footprint.
What is your carbon footprint? It is the Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions equivalent that your person generates both directly and indirectly. When you calculate your carbon footprint, you evaluate just how much CO2 emissions you're contributing to the climate. Whether it be by your apartment, travel, food and more, you can learn about your own personal impact on the climate.
Calculate your carbon footprint using The Nature Conservancy calculator.
2. Don't Use Straws for a Month.
I don't know if you've seen the video of the people trying to pull the straw from that turtle's nose, but I can't watch it all the way through because it's so sad and super uncomfortable. Stopping the use of straws for a month is a small but mighty step in keeping the oceans clear of waste, and might save you a few bucks at the grocery store.
3. Pledge to go Paperless.
Everything's electronic now anyway, lol. Pledge to not use paper, or at least be mindful of how many paper products you use on a daily basis. If you have the option, try using a paper product with recycled content.
4. Run an Earth Day 5K.
5. Plant a Tree/Wildflowers.
#FTB (for the bees!). Honeybees are the cute little bees you just gotta love because they are the reason we are alive on this planet. When we plant wildflowers, we give them plant biodiversity, and the pollen needed to stay alive and keep doin' their bee thanggg.
This is a good infographic I found on the internet regarding a bee's bro status. Know your bees people, and love the BROS!
6. Learn How to Properly Recycle.
Recycling is actually a process and there are different means to recycle different things. Take a small step, by properly sorting your own personal recycling. Something small like separating paper, cans, glass etc. can make a difference!
7. Collect Food Scraps and Compost.
Composting is a way to take organic waste and reuse it. A collection of grass clippings, leaves, and other kitchen scraps breaks down over time and makes a great plant fertilizer, and improves soil quality. If you have a backyard garden, you need to get started composting ASAP.
To learn more, check out this awesome blog post on Composting 101 by Pure Living for Life.
8. Repurpose an Old Item into Something New.
9. Eat All Natural for a Day/Vegetarian.
I love meat, and I have no shame in that. I would love it slightly more if the production of it wasn't as bad for the environment as it is. Even being a 1/7 day vegetarian is a small step in lessening your own carbon footprint.
10. Time Your Shower.
11. Observe Earth Hour.
So the official Earth Hour takes place on March, 24th but you can still take part as a commitment and pledge to our Earth and planet. Learn more about Earth Hour here.
12. Donate to A Earth Oriented Cause.
If you're going to be buying things, make a mental note to pledge to a company that makes a conservation effort. Sustainable fashion is on the rise, my dudes. Patagonia and Tentree have some really cute clothes items, they encourage you to get outside, and they give back to the environment. What's not to love?
13. Watch an Earth Related Documentary.
14. Unplug Electronics Not In Use.
15. Switch to Energy Efficient Light Bulbs.
LED bulbs are the new Vogue lol. That's a stretch, but switching to energy efficient lighting such as LEDs, can save on energy, and save you money long term. Note that the more the lighting is used, the better it is for your wallet in the long run. You're probably better off encouraging the switch in an office building.
Call me a lighting snob, I used to hate LEDs because of the blue light shade they emitted. But now things are all good because they have the warm LED light, and I am thrilled.
16. Use Reusable Shopping Bags For Shopping.
Ever since I moved to California, I've had to pay 10 cents for plastic bags at the grocery store. I invested in reusables, and I gotta say it's way easier since you only need to take one trip carrying your groceries inside (HUGE plus), and it's less plastic. Win, win.
17. Go on a Hike.
18. Grow a Garden.
19. Support Local Farmers.
Buying locally minimizes the food transportation emissions and helps out your local growers. Besides, there is something about buying sweet corn or tomatoes from a local farm that tastes so much sweeter. Or is that just me?
20. Take Public Transport to Work.
Trains FTW. Also, you have the option to NAP (!!!)… so that's always a good move. My workplace offers incentives for me to take public transport to work, so I literally get PAID to take public transportation.
21. Use a Reusable Water Bottle.
22. Do Cold Laundry.
Heating water uses energy. Cold washes use less!
23. Plant a Succulent Terrarium.
24. Consider Going Solar/Purchasing Energy Efficient Appliances.
If you are a homeowner, consider getting energy efficient appliances or going solar. If your system is older, it is way less energy efficient, and that costs you more money out of pocket.
25. Volunteer Locally.
26. Work from Home.
No pants, fewer emissions.
27. Turn Off the Sink When You Brush Your Teeth.
28. Only Dry Your Hands With One Paper Towel.
GUYS this one has actually changed my life. We definitely don't use enough of the paper towel when we dry our hands after using the restroom. Check out this Ted Talk video, and you too will be mind BLOWN.
29. Skip the bath, Shower instead.
Don't get me wrong, I love a good bath bomb as the next person, but this Earth Month, try and take a shower instead. It uses less water.
30. Get Educated.
I love nature and I love plants. The best way to support our environment and the Earth we live on is by staying educated.
Of course, this doesn't just mean going back to school! Simply reading up on scientific developments and technologies is a great initiative to take during the Earth Month Challenge. Research a topic you care about, such as wildlife conservation, ocean cleaning technologies etc.
This beautiful planet is our home, and we must start treatin' her right.
How do you plan on getting involved during this year's Earth Month Challenge? Comment your ideas in the comment section below!

Somehow when he said we would go for a holiday again for our 9th wedding anniversary cum my 31st birthday, I had already foreseen this coming… but I decided to give it the benefit of doubt. Now I wonder why I was positive-minded enough to do that – repeatedly.
Like a fool being taken on a (figurative) ride, I am.

Ingredients Have Immigration Stories, Too
The crops that thrive in various climates around the globe have stories to tell.
Strawberries are immigrants. While the berry has grown wild around the world for millennia, the garden variety we snack on today only exists because of a chance Pan-American hybridization. In the 1700s, two strawberry varieties that had been imported to France from the New World crossbred, producing plump, juicy berries that were then exported around the globe for cultivation. They are now one of the biggest crops in the Americas.
Many plant species and ingredients that we've come to identify with certain regions have similar stories. Like humans who spread out to all corners of the earth, plants have traveled far and wide from their origins, diversifying themselves and the global food supply along the way. Knowing the migration stories of the things you eat could change your whole outlook on consumption.
The Long Road to Flourishing
Take pomegranates, for example. This fruit originated in the lands spanning from Iran to northern India, then spread throughout the Mediterranean thousands of years ago. In 1769, Spanish settlers brought the pomegranate to California, where the fruit—and the Spanish—put down roots. While Spain officially lost its colony in 1821, the pomegranate remained, having been naturalized to the drier parts of the state. Eating a California-grown pomegranate today is like taking a bite out of the remnants of the Spanish Empire.
Mangoes, like strawberries, would not be the fruit we know today if it weren't for migrants cultivating the plant's seeds in new locations. The mango, which is native to India, traveled to Southeast Asia in conjunction with the spread of Buddhism and Hinduism. Explorers from China and Iraq also took the fruit back with them to their home countries. It didn't make its way to the Americas until the 1700s. But in each new settlement, the best, most adaptable fruits were selected to breed, resulting in the contemporary, multicultural mango.
Today the mango is still traveling. One prominent producer of the fruit is Ecuador, which exports 70 to 75 percent of its mangoes to the US. The country has a competitive advantage over other big mango exporters because of its climate: Ecuador's harvest season is long, lasting from mid-October to early February. And as Ecuador's mango exportation increases, the country can build more treatment and packing plants and hire more workers, many of them immigrants. The country's current constitution, ratified in 2008, is actually quite revolutionary, as it grants legal rights to ecosystems and citizenship to immigrants.
Crops at Risk—and What's Being Done to Save Them
Plants tell the story of culture, migration, and globalization. So when they are at risk, our global food economy, history, and culture are also at risk. Farmers around the world are facing geological challenges, like natural disasters that decimate crops. In Washington State, vast orchards of the world's finest black cherries grow under the constant risk of wildfire. The long-term, compounding effects of poor soil quality—in Washington and around the world—are eroding the land and making it hard for farmers to grow nutritious and delicious fruits and vegetables. This is especially evident in areas that practice large-scale monocropping (the planting of only one type of crop). Without genetic diversity, orchards and fields are more susceptible to disease, erosion, and destruction.
But there are protections in place. During times of geological crisis, like the 7.8-magnitude earthquake that hit Ecuador in 2016 and affected the country's mango crops, humanitarian organizations like CARE step in to help communities rebuild so families can continue to earn a livelihood. In California's San Joaquin Valley, where pomegranates grow, drought is a serious concern. So UC Davis's Fruit and Nut Research and Information Center is investigating more sustainable agricultural practices. Joining them is Sustainable Conservation, a local organization that incentivizes business owners and public agencies to restore damaged ecosystems and replenish California's fresh water supply.
Fluctuating food and drink trends can also affect the viability of crops. Exciting—and sometimes exhausting—for eaters, these trends are not always good news for the people who work in the global food industry. Spikes and dips in demand—one day avocado toast is the most popular dish in town, the next day, it's charcoal lemonade—can impact their entire way of life. Even more significant fluctuations can occur due to the local economy, climate change, and political unrest—factors that have prompted non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and grassroots campaigns to support food workers and craftspeople. These initiatives are helping them to fight poverty and job insecurity, giving them hope for a more stable global food future.
Your choice of what to eat or drink affects more than your taste buds. To be a truly conscious consumer, be aware of where your food is coming from, follow changes in national food policy, support farms and industries that share your values, and back organizations that try to make life better for agricultural workers around the world. Then you'll really enjoy that next strawberry.
To help you understand more about where your food comes from, Munchies and Liberté have partnered to produce UPROOTED, a three-part mini-documentary series premiering in December 2017. This series profiles three ingredients found in Liberté products that are not only delicious, but have stories to tell about how they reached their ideal climates and how they've changed the communities around them.

An investment in the Hartlepool region has been revealed today - but the price will be paid by an increase in household bills.
Hartlepool Water has announced an £8.5million investment, which will be paid for by average bills of 37p, per home.
Despite this rise, the company has said that average bills are lower than they were three years ago, and the money raised will help to maintain and improve the town's water services.
The increase in billing from last year is 2.1% - but prices in 2015 were dropped by 7.5% in the first place. Average water bills were cut by £11.
Kevin Ensell, Hartlepool Water Operations Manager, said: "Bills are back down to what they were three years ago thanks to the reductions we've made and the priority we place on being efficient and offering value for money.
"We're keeping costs as low as possible for the long term while investing heavily in the region in line with what customers told us was important to them."
Hartlepool Water, which is owned by Anglian Water, has broken down how the investment will pan out over the next 12 months.
Around £1million will be spent on maintaining water pipes and equipment across Hartlepool, £3.5million will be spent on increasing the "resilience" of the Wynyard water treatment works and £4million will go on running the equipment and operating the network.
The company has also said that customers using a water meter will pay even less, with the average metered bill standing at £120. This will equate to 32p a day.
Mr Ensell added: "Water meters remain the best way to save money and stay in control of your bill, with the annual average metered bill coming in £17 cheaper than without a meter.
"In our region more homes now have a meter, but there are still many customers who are not using the meters they have fitted and we would urge them to switch and save.
"It's free to switch and if you aren't completely satisfied you can switch back, for free, within two years."

Tank Warfare: Operation Pugilist DLC is now live on Steam!
October 19, 2017
The latest DLC addition for Tank Warfare: Tunisia 1943 is live! Continue the epic battles that helped define the outcome of World War II today, and take advantage of the 15% launch discount!
About this DLC:
The spring offensive of the British forces in Eastern Tunisia began with an attempt of a frontal breakthrough of the Mareth defensive line. After a massive bombing and a fire assault, British forces consisting of 50th Northumberland Infantry Division and 50th Royal Tank Regiment launched an attack on the coastal part of the Mareth line fortifications. Infantry of 8th Battalion Durham Light Infantry crossed Wadi Zigzaou and captured two small bridgeheads on the left bank: Ouerzi and Ksiba Ouest. The main obstacle for continuing the offensive is the river in flood after rains. Spanned crossings for heavy vehicles are collapsing quickly by flow of water, which made crossing difficult for tanks and artillery.
- Two operations of 12 turns for each of the parties (Mareth Line, March 22-24, 1943).
- Precisely recreated area of over 100 sq. km: seashore, strong points and oases, a desert with harsh terrain and extensive gullies.
- Historical organizational structure of units at the time of the offensive.

Produced in the Elizabeth shape from 1982 to 1986. The scalloped rims are trimmed in platinum. Marked Paragon Malvern on the underside.
|Salad plate with slight surface scratching and wear to platinum trim (2 available)
Paragon started out as "Star China" in 1897 and only started using "Paragon" as a trade name around 1903. In 1919, the company name was changed to "Paragon China Company Ltd". Known initially for its tea and breakfast fine bone porcelain it expanded in the 1930's into a full range of dinner ware as well as greatly expanding its export markets.
The fine quality of its china brought it several royal warrants of appointments from Queen Mary, the Queen Mohter and Queen Elizabeth.
In the 1960's Paragon was purchased by Royal Albert who for several years continued to produce some its more popular patterns until 1992. Eventually, Royal Albert was also bought out by Royal Doulton.

Microsoft officials warned customers of its BPOS bundle of hosted Exchange, SharePoint and Lync on Monday, May 10, that an upgrade of Exchange Online was slated to begin on May 12. Microsoft didn;t tell users to expect any downtime as a result of the upgrade. It seems something went wrong before May 12's upgrade ever began. Users are reporting there have been intermittent, multi-hour Exchange Online outages on May 10, 11 and 12 at different times in North America, Europe and Asia.
On May 12 at around 9 p.m. ET, CVP of Online Services Dave Thompson posted a detailed explanation of the problems that hit Exchange Online, acknowledging that there were problems on Tuesday, as well. Thompson also apologized to customers and announced the availability of the Microsoft's health-status dashboard to public.
Thompson said:
As a result of Tuesday's incident, we feel we could've communicated earlier and been more specific. Effective today, we updated our communications procedures to be more extensive and timely. We understand that it's critical for customers to be as fully informed as possible during service impacting events. We'll continue to improve the timeliness and specificity of our communications. The primary mechanism for communicating to our customers on issues has been and will continue to be the Service Health Dashboard. For North America, that dashboard is at https://health.noam.microsoftonline.com/.
Here's Thompson's explaination of the issue:
On Tuesday at 9:30am PDT, BPOS-S Exchange service experienced an issue with one of the hub components due to malformed email traffic on the service. Exchange has the built-in capability to handle such traffic, but encountered an obscure case where that capability didn't work correctly. The result was a growing backlog of email. By 12:00am PDT, the malformed traffic was isolated and the mail queues cleared. The delays encountered by customers varied, on the order of 6-9 hours. Short term mitigation was implemented and a fix was under development.
At 9:10am PDT today, service monitoring again detected malformed email traffic on the service. The problem was resolved at 10:03am, but users experienced up to 45 minute email delays during this time. A second, but related issue was detected via monitoring at 11:35am PDT, resulting in email stuck in some end users' outboxes. The issue was remediated at 12:04pm PDT. During this time, more than 1.5 million messages had queued on the service awaiting delivery. The backlog was 90% clear by 4:12 PM, but because of this large backlog of email, customers may have experienced delays of as long as 3 hours. We're implementing a comprehensive fix to both problems.
In an unrelated incident, starting at 1:04am PDT, service monitoring detected a failure in the Domain Name Service (DNS) hosting the http://mail.microsoftonline.com domain. This failure, prevented users from accessing Outlook Web Access hosted in the Americas, and partially impacted some functionality of Outlook and Exchange ActiveSync devices. The team diagnosed, and fixed, an underlying problem in the servers hosting DNS for the http://mail.microsoftonline.com domain, and restored service at 4:52am PDT. The team identified a number of improvements in our handling of problems associated with DNS, and will provide a full post mortem of this incident available through Microsoft Support.

It's time again to select a new movie to watch! Let's go to the random number generator…
#154 – Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels.
I remember seeing trailers on TV for this when I was younger. It looked like some kind of heist film, but I never saw it or found out any more information about it.
Four London working class stiffs pool their money to put one in a high stakes card game, but things go wrong and they end up owing half a million pounds and having one week to come up with the cash.
It comes in at 107 minutes. It's definitely not too heavy a commitment. Heist films aren't usually things I'd go out of my way to watch, but if this one's good, then I'm game!
I guess this counts as our first IMDB Quest foreign film, though I don't tend to see British as foreign…

The spectacular beauty of fall here in Schroon is captured by Danielle Swinton, who whipped out her Samsung Smartphone one recent moning and captured these two beautiful shots. As Danielle tells us, her phone takes better pictures than her camera. We think Danielle is being a bit modest -- afterall it was her artistic eye which bought these images into focus.

I should be getting ready for the stupid community garage sale, that I must have been drunk when I signed up for. But, other than a cabinet and drawer, I'm not so inclined. Lord knows I need to be, I've got enough crap around here...maybe I'll just open the doors and post a sign...make me an offer...hum...
I've been busy. I HAD to do a lovely triptych of an ugly dinosaur for my youngest nephew's room. It's not MY design, it looks just like the comforter
Anyway, it's done.
And, then just because I love torture, we are reupholstering another chair.
This is just a side chair, that belonged to my grandmother Nash.
See, I gave my sister 6 of my dining room chairs, and now find that I'm in need. I'm cool with this, as I wanted a different look, and this most certainly will be. Stay tuned for the finished product.
Henceforth and hereafter, you may just call me Martha Stewart.... check out my roses.... I'm also a master gardener.

Self-Protection: Antidumping Duties, Collusion and FDI
Davies, Ronald B.

Liebman, Benjamin H., 1971-
It is well established that the threat of antidumping duties can help sustain collusion between a foreign firm and its domestic counterpart. However, when the foreign firm is a multinational, its subsidiary will fight against a new duty, potentially making this threat hollow and collusion less likely. We show that the multinational may therefore choose to submit to a tariff even under collusion since evidence indicates that duties are more difficult to remove than initiate. In this way, it is possible to obtain a greater degree of commitment, although it comes at a cost. Nevertheless, we show that this can be a more profitable strategy than those previously explored. In fact, we find several cases where subsidiaries of multinational firms have indeed filed for protection from their own parents.

Tracey Emin - Here I am, a fucked, crazy, anorexic-alcoholic-childless, beautiful woman. I never dreamt it would be like this
Tracey Emin, Strangeland, Hodder & Stoughton, 2006.
Here I am, a fucked, crazy, anorexic-alcoholic-childless, beautiful woman. I never dreamt it would be like this.
Tracey Emin's Strangeland is her own space, lying between the Margate of her childhood, the Turkey of her forefathers and her own, private-public life in present-day London. Her writings, a combination of memoirs and confessions, are deeply intimate, yet powerfully engaging. Tracey retains a profoundly romantic world view, paired with an uncompromising honesty. Her capacity both to create controversies and to strike chords is unequalled in British life. A remarkable book - and an original, beautiful mind.
Tracey Emin is at a strategic disadvantage when it comes to writing her autobiography - we know most of the juicy bits already. After all, Emin has forged her artistic career on making a public display of the most shocking and personal elements of her life story. Thanks to her embroidered tent, Everyone I've Ever Slept With, we know more about her sex life than we do about most of our friends.
She has made exhibitions out of the sexual abuse she suffered as a child, her abortion and her darkest feelings of loss, self-doubt and betrayal. Even her grubby sheets have been on display at the Tate. How much more do we want or need to know?
Those who do want more detail on all the best-known Emin myths won't be disappointed by Strangeland. It follows her down the dark alley where she was raped, aged 13. It details with some relish her stinking flat, her alcoholism and her wanking habits. And it describes, movingly, how she was left holding a dead foetus in the back of a London taxi five days after her botched abortion.
But the real revelations here are of a gentler kind. While her best-known art has shown Emin at her most confrontational, in her writing, we meet a calmer, more sensitive soul. The middle section of the book takes place in Turkey, where she finds some kind of peace exploring her roots and bonding with her estranged father. It ain't very rock'n'roll - they pick olives, go to the seaside and exchange family gossip. But after the uneasy squalor of her childhood in Margate, it comes as a relief.
The quality of Emin's writing is another nice surprise. At its best, it shows flashes of insight and originality: 'As we drove from the sea, the land became a rolling mass of drunken hills.' But the most interesting thing about this book is what it doesn't tell us about Tracey Emin. For one so open and confessional, there are some glaring omissions. Her art, for a start, is hardly touched on. When did she turn to it and why? There is a fleeting mention of the 'emotional suicide' she suffered in 1992, when she destroyed all her paintings and started producing the confessional art which made her name.
But the events which prompted her breakdown, and inspired her creative rebirth, remain a mystery. By the end of Strangeland, we are no closer to understanding the extraordinary metamorphosis which transformed the abused little girl from Margate into one of the art world's brightest stars. That is the real enigma of Tracey Emin. And, for once, she's keeping it to herself. - Alice O'Keefe
In 2002, Tracey Emin's father faxed her a short narrative describing his early life in his native Turkey. In it, the older Emin recounts with the fantastical eye of a child his youth as a factory worker, and how he was taken sexually taken advantage of by his employer's wife. "Yes, she had two perfect legs, like a goddess, blonde hair and olive-coloured eyes, and her breast was pure white, like an angel's without wings," writes the older Emin to his daughter. "It was here that I took my first alcoholic drink, brandy, as we made love." Eventually, Emin's father sees sex and alcohol as his enemies as they haunt and attempt to destroy his life. Emin's father faxed the tale of his battles with vice in hopes that she would, in her words, "cut down on drinking."
Frequently associated with the Young British Artists, or YBAs, Tracey Emin began her artistic career as she began her life: on the margins. Born ten minutes after her fraternal twin, Paul, Emin grew up in the hotel that her mother managed in the seaside town of Margate. After a night with friends there, when she was thirteen, as she walked back to the hotel, Tracey was raped. "She didn't call the police or make any fuss," writes Emin about her mother's reaction. "But for me, my childhood was over, I had become conscious of my physicality, aware of my presence and open to the ugly truths of the world." Emin's early life and rape are recounted in "Like a Hook from the Sky," the long, nuanced essay that opens Strangeland, her collected writings first published in 2005. Divided into three parts, "Motherland," "Fatherland," and "Traceyland," the essays in Strangeland are a cumulative autobiography, with each essay building a self-portrait in lyrical language, conversational in its immediacy. Conflating true events in her life with her emotional experience of them, Emin makes myth of the mundane, affirming her authority over victimization and vice.
I'm often interested in how artists deal with hereditary -- in terms of innate predilections toward behavior or impulses for certain vices or violence or the like -- and truly Emin is fearless in her continual interest in confronting her victimization and vices in her artwork and writings alike. In dividing Strangeland into two distinct parts named for her parents, Emin acknowledges the profound effect that her parents' lives had upon hers, for good or bad. And certainly, in the "Traceyland" section of the book, Emin confronts how those lives have formulated hers, which has fundamentally been affected by her refusal to have actual children, and simultaneous insistence that her artwork and creative output are, in fact, her offspring.
Emin's father's story, included in Strangeland, inspired Knowing My Enemy (2002), a large, metaphorical sculpture made of wooden slats and boards forming a dock-like structure that leads to a shack. Assembled in a jagged, rushed fashion, the wood becomes a boardwalk to the shack, stimulating a sense of isolation as well as intrigue. The sculpture opened Emin's retrospective, Love Is What You Want, at London's Hayward Gallery last year. As Emin explained in an interview with Ralph Rugoff, one of the show's curators, the sculpture isn't meant to be lonely, or melancholic, but blissfully solitary. "I've often tried to make a place where I think my dad would be happy, or where I would be happy," said Emin. "And one of my dad's dreams was to live in a little hut on the beach with a corrugated-iron roof, and to hear the sounds of rain coming down off the roof and the sea lapping up. And this is a dream that I share with him." But parents' dreams for their children sometimes differ from those of their children's, and almost always from the reality of those dreams. In making a work that alludes to the demons she's inherited from her father, based on her father's written narratives, Emin visually articulates that incongruity between what we want and what our parents wanted for us, as well as the divergence between familial memory and myth.
Writing and language has long been central in Emin's artistic practice, as Cliff Lauson notes in an essay in the magnificent catalogue for Love Is What You Want. Lauson explains that before becoming an artist, Emin imagined that she could be a writer, and began publishing short pieces in her early days as a painter. Famously, she solicited investors for her practice in a letter writing campaign; for ten pounds, investors would receive a few pieces of mail from her. In the early 1990s, while still on the outside of the YBA group, Emin and a friend set up an art shop in London, where they sold hand-made objects that often joked on the YBAs' art world. Upstairs, Emin wrote in a room that she called the Detective Office, which seems fitting given the tenacious, explorative character of her prose. While her long-running column for The Independent, titled "My Life in a Column," (collected and published last year in a volume of the same title) tends toward diary, Strangeland and her other purely autobiographical writing seem to be more of a means for her to describe her life's experience as not exactly how it happened, but how it felt.
The essays that comprise the maternal and paternal portions of Strangeland are exotic, describing her parents and her childhood with them in absorbing, fanciful sentences that unfold in quick syntax. But in "Traceyland," we see what those personalities produced, and how they informed Emin's attitude toward reproduction of herself, in terms of her art and children. Though loneliness and longing is palpable in essays such as "Remember, St. Valentine Loves You," the most beautifully raw inclusion is "Abortion: How it Feels." In it, Emin is truthful and brutal, delineating her hesitation and oscillation between decisions with stoic precision. She doesn't sugarcoat; she is calmly honest in the simultaneous joy and pain that she felt and insists that she will always feel. "I walked through Regent's Park; the blossom, pink and white, floated above me, and the clouds floated above the blossom, and heaven floated above the clouds. And with both my hands across my stomach, I said, 'Hello, tiny. Welcome to this world,'" Emin writes, before continuing that she gradually began to understand the personal reality of parenthood. "If I had the child, it would be my responsibility. I was alone. I couldn't think straight. I knew I had only a week or so to make up my mind and if I made a mistake I would have to live with a lifetime of regret."
Emin's abortions have formulated and informed a huge body of work -- sculptures, installations, paintings, drawings, and writings. Perhaps the most poignant works, to me, are Baby Things (2008), an assortment of tiny sculptures scattered around a British seaside town with a high rate of teenage pregnancy. While the work was on view, people tripped over the teensy teddy bears, baby socks, and clothes that served as tender monuments to the lives of babies loved, lost, and borne. In this work, like so many of her other pieces, Emin has transformed a space, public or private, into a place that is shaped by her psychical sense of body and experience. I see Strangeland as integral in determining those places and spaces, Emin's use of language a tool for her to understand and voice how she herself was shaped. - Leah Triplett
Tracey Emin attained fame at much the same time as she acquired notoriety. The appearance of her tent embroidered with the names of all the people she'd slept with became ineradicably linked with her drunken appearance on Channel Four after the Turner Prize ceremony - hilariously, to discuss the question, "Is painting dead?"
This remains the kernel of her identity as an artist: that she is inseparable from her own works. It is a position one encounters in the realm of political extremism, but nowhere else in the comfortable, Saatchi-funded world of modern British art. It was and remains surprising how provoking Emin's emergence into public life managed to be. She succeeded in exposing a liberal, jaded critical establishment for the solidly bourgeois cabal that it is. Her chaotic behaviour seemed counter-cultural rather than merely boorish.
More than that, by her unrelenting frankness she uncannily imparted a touch of the Emperor's New Clothes to her fellow Brit-artists. While the likes of Damien Hirst and Sam Taylor-Wood evolved a faintly sickening, deeply conventional pseudo-aristocracy out of money and fame, Emin was taking photographs of her (unflushed) toilet in Margate, with an accompanying text that concludes: "That'll be 46 grand thanks!"
Strangeland should not, then, be approached as a memoir unless a memoir can be understood to be a Tracey Emin artwork. She is no fake; or at least, she's not going to be exposed as one that easily. Strangeland proceeds through exactly the same fusion of self and medium as, for example, her entrancing forays into crafts such as embroidery that are emblematic of female passivity. In other words, she seizes upon a form in order to make it her own, to demonstrate her own formlessness.
"At the moment of my birth into this world, I somehow felt a mistake had been made. I couldn't scream or cry or argue my case. I just lay motionless, wishing I could go back where I'd come from." From this characteristically uncowed beginning she proceeds to describe a childhood of more or less unrelieved vulnerability: squalor, rape, financial and social insecurity, shame. After her first experience of sexual abuse she recounts her aunt asking her if she has been "naughty, mucking around, playing strange games". "I didn't know what strange games were," Emin writes. "To me, it was all part of living. A strange living. I had never known the truth so I had never cared for the truth, rationality or reason.""Motherland", the classically sordid English seaside story of growing up in Margate with her mother and twin brother, forms one half of her identity here; the other derives from her Turkish Cypriot father, who abandoned the family when Emin was a small child.
In "Getting to Know My Enemy: In My Father's Words", her father tells the story of how he himself was sexually abused by the wife of the owner of a Turkish Delight factory, where he was forced as a child to work after his mother's death. Emin describes her travels, as an adult, around Cyprus with her father, and a relationship she had there with a Turkish fisherman. Just as everything in the Margate sections is fractured, squalid, violated, so the world of Cyprus is antique, romantic, mythical. "For four months Abdullah and I were lovers. We spent our days drinking Izmir red wine. At night we would go out on the small boat and f--- like crazy in the sea. We would climb up hills and sit on top of Lycean tombs. He would play the zuz and I would dance. We were like performing bears - performing for each other."
The last part of the book, "Traceyland", is about Emin the artist, the offspring of these two contradictory forces, squalor and romance. It is rather like a written version of Emin's infamous bed, full of the profanity of the body. She describes a traumatic abortion she endured at 19, her feverish sexuality, her self-destructive impulses. She is incoherent, self-obsessed, by turns victimised and defiant. When she talks about art it is with the chastened, programmatic reverence of someone reformed: "Strolling on the plateau of life, desperate for the mountain, I never thought that I would get this far. It's only art that has carried me through, given me faith in my own existence."
Reading this section, those who admire Tracey Emin will find themselves in a familiar deadlock with those who regard her as the most fraudulent product of a fake artistic movement. Succinctly, she describes the situation herself, in a final, amusing chapter in which she remembers a journey she once made to Niagara Falls. Next to the thundering spectacle of the water there was a museum, "a quaint little place full of curiosities". Inside, Emin felt strangely drawn to the history of the barrel-rollers, people who got into beer barrels and threw themselves over the Falls.
"They made every calculation, of course," she writes. "Survival would ensure fame and fortune. But most did not survive. In 1880, I might have been one of those people." - Rachel Cusk
Readers may sympathise with Tracey Emin. Her big mouth and huge appetite for self- advertisement make her a ready target; she's so shameless and yet, by her own account, so abused. ('And then they started: "SLAG, SLAG, SLAG." A gang of blokes, most of whom I'd had sex with at some time or other…') Life has dealt her a raw yet currently rewarding deal. And now that she's a proper celebrity, as real as Cindy Sherman — the photographer of a thousand guises — and much more in-your-face, she owes it to her public to keep delivering, living her dreams, spicing resolutions with relapses.
Margate's most famous daughter grew up in what were, by her account, intermittently abject circumstances. A mostly absent Turkish Cypriot father, a mother resourceful enough to help herself to lead from roofs when broke, a fitful formal education, a feral sex education and catastrophic front teeth: she had it all up to here, that's to say up to the point where she had to either sink or swim. Buoyant, she finds herself, at the age of 42, issuing an autobiography that wrings out the memories with a self-indulgence bordering on infatuation. 'I thought with my body,' she claims. Leading with her chin, she has filled these pages using lots of old material, pieces reprinted from ID magazine ('The Proper Steps for Dealing with an Unwanted Pregnancy'), GQ ('The Mummy Screams') and other such outlets.
These writings are a mixture of heartfelt missives and slurp resembling homework long overdue. They read like extended versions of her insecurity blankets, the ones with attractively misspelt words appliquéd all over, though here, for once, Spellcheck has been employed.
'Trying to make sense of everything', as she says, is a fitful task. Grand-dad Emin had four wives; great-great-great-grand- father was a slave 'in the Ottoman empire'. As for the great-great-great-grand-daughter herself, she inhabits an empire of the imagination broken down for editorial convenience into Traceyland, Motherland, Fatherland, Strangeland and Dreamland. In these parts she's the focus of attention, of course, and never more so than when she came a close second to Paul, her twin brother. 'When I was born, they thought I was dead.'
Between babyhood and adulthood came the setbacks that are taking the artist a lifetime to savour, with self-help manuals providing supportive vocabulary. 'Like a wounded bird I began to rebuild myself, using the experience of failure as my foundation,' she trills. Valentine's Day 1988: the post arrives. 'Nothing there for me — no love. No one loved me, I started to cry.'
This is the type of emotional fix that provokes Emin's best work, her scratchy drawings of splayed legs and wishbone bodies, terse and sharp. Words fail her more. She keeps trying to be Andy Warhol the diarist but lacks his laconic tone. On holiday in Cyprus with her dad she has trouble with a fisherman and insects. 'The flies were in love with me,' she boasts, 'They loved me like I was a piece of donkey shit. One night I counted over 60 bites.' It's the counting that's significant; the figure is either made up or (sad to say) she actually did bother to tot them up.
Ego is all. In Norway, visiting the site of Munch's 'Scream', she feels herself enwombed somehow. 'I wanted to jump inside the picture and cradle the Scream in my arms. Another lost soul.' Steady on, old girl, is the obvious response, but we must remember that this, like so much else related here, was a performance assignment. A cameraman and sound recordist were on hand taping her rendezvous with destiny.
Such base details are omitted, as are the routines of a busy professional life. We are not to know that at the Royal College she painted earnestly. Better, she assumes, for us to hear about that memorable night when she ripped off her microphone during a Turner Prize-related Channel Four live transmission and staggered away ('pissed out of my brains … complete fucking horror') bawling for her mum and leaving David Sylvester, Norman Rosenthal, and other worthies astounded at her upstaging of their 'debate'. This exit propelled her immediately from D list to B list. 'My gallery is inundated with requests for me to appear on chat-shows,' she noted a day or two later. 'My art's selling like hot cakes.'
Emin reality dissolves all too readily into Emin dreams. When the anecdotes become too repetitive even for her she nods off and tells us about it:
Dreams don't have time. Neither does sleep, nor death. That's why it's sometimes good to wear a watch. I always took my watch off when making love. Even if I kept all my clothes on. Even if it was outside in winter, I would always take my watch off.
Among her fantasy figures is the Director of the Tate. 'Nick Serota comes on the line to wish me a happy birthday anyway.' Dream on, Trace. We all remember with varying degrees of shame ending school exercises in creative writing with 'Then I woke up'.
'Here I am, a fucked, crazy, anorexic-alcoholic-childless beautiful woman. I never dreamed it would be like this.'
A Tracey Emin strength is the knack of producing work that looks unpremeditated. It protects her through would-be aphorism ('One cannot live on vodka alone') and gulps of affirmation ('Deep in my soul I know the soul can endure'). But — another chapter, another pregnancy scare — she does overdo the artlessness. 'I am relieved, relieved to know that at 37 years of age I am just a woman with a fucking good imagination.' This imagination of hers is an asset worth coaxing into new prospects. She writes, using capital letters for extra loud emphasis, 'DON'T BE AFRAID TO TAKE THE PAST HEAD ON.' Fair enough, but why not go easy on all that baggage? Can't the personality be given a rest? I guess not. - William Feaver

Toronto police say they are investigating not only an anti-Muslim rally that took place on the doorstep of a downtown mosque nearly a week ago, but allegations of hate speech inside the mosque as well.
More than a dozen people converged on Masjid Toronto last Friday, calling for a ban on Islam as Muslims prayed inside. Police said that prompted multiple complaints over the weekend from people in attendance that day, as well as others who were not present.
After a formal complaint was filed Tuesday, the rally is under investigation by the hate crime unit, corporate communications director Mark Pugash confirmed to CBC Toronto.
But less than 24 hours later, police received another complaint — this time for alleged hate speech inside the mosque.

Clive Davis has admitted he is still in shock over the death of his protege Whitney Houston five years ago.
Clive Davis is still in shock over Whitney Houston's death.
The 48-year-old singer drowned in a bathtub in 2012 at the age of 48, just hours before she was due to attend Clive's pre-Grammys gala at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles and the music veteran admitted he still finds it hard to believe his protege is dead.
Speaking on The Hollywood Reporter's Awards Chatter podcast, Clive said: ''Her death was just a tremendous shock. I had just been with her 48 hours before, and she was vibrant and looking forward to making a new album.''
And Clive, 85, will always consider Whitney one of the greatest singers of all time.
He said: ''The three greatest singers of all time are Aretha Franklin, Barbra Streisand and Whitney Houston. Whitney could do anything.''
Meanwhile, unreleased Whitney Houston recordings were made public as part of a brand new soundtrack to mark the 25th anniversary of 'The Bodyguard' this year.
The collection called 'Whitney Houston - I Wish You Love: More From The Bodyguard' was released on November 17, and featured a host of unheard pieces from the late singer's legendary career.
The collection was released exactly 25 years after the release of 'The Bodyguard: Original Soundtrack Album', which the 'I Wanna Dance With Somebody' singer co-executive produced with Clive.
The Grammy Award-winning album was the first record to sell more than one million copies in a single week, and has sold more than 45 million across the world to date.
It's the top-selling soundtrack of all time - while 'The Bodyguard' marked the star's movie debut - and it has gone on to become one of the best selling albums of all time.

MWD Commits Up to $10.8B for Two-Tunnel Water Project
The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California board of directors on April 10 voted to commit up to $10.8 billion in funding for two water tunnels to carry water under the San Joaquin/Sacramento River Delta to Southern California.
The vote commits the giant Los Angeles-based water wholesaler to fund up to 64 percent of the $16.7 billion project at a total annual cost of up to $515 million, or $4.80 per household.
About 30 percent of the water that flows out of taps in Southern California comes from Northern California through the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. But the water delivery system through the Delta area is outdated, the natural ecosystem has been under severe stress and the 1,100-mile levee system is vulnerable to earthquakes, flooding, saltwater intrusion and sea level rise. The state has sought for 40 years to route water supplies around the Delta to reduce these problems and vulnerabilities.
The California Water Fix project calls for two 40-foot diameter tunnels under 35 miles of the delta to increase water supplies to Southern California, reduce saltwater intrusion, protect water supplies in case of disaster and allow more water to be set aside for wildlife and other environmental concerns.
So far, the MWD is the only major water provider to support the project; water districts in the Central Valley and the Bay Area have balked at the cost. That prompted Gov. Jerry Brown's administration to put forward a scaled-down proposal for one tunnel at a cost of $11.1 billion.
The board decided not to support the scaled down plan and turned away requests from some board members to postpone the vote for a month. While the vote count was very close, board members' votes are weighted differently, with urban representatives getting greater weight to their votes.
Despite opposition votes from the two largest cities, Los Angeles and San Diego, the final tally was 61 percent for and 39 percent against.
"For decades, we have sought a solution to the problems of the Bay Delta, problems that put Southern California's water supply at risk," Metropolitan board Chairman Randy Record said in the discussion leading up to the vote. "We finally have that solution, California WaterFix. We simply could not jeopardize the opportunity to move this long-sought and much-needed project forward."

THE POWER THAT JESUS USED by Ernest Holmes Part 1
THE POWER THAT JESUS USED Throughout our lives, we have read and wondered about the miracles of Jesus. But to how many of us has the thought come that this same power must be available to everyone? We have been so accustomed to thinking of Jesus as a man filled with love and compassion and human kindness that we have overlooked something else about him that is equally important. Jesus had access to a spiritual Power that he used in every way. To him it seemed the most natural thing in the world that he should be able to tell the paralyzed man to walk, or multiply the loaves and fishes, or still the wind and waves. I happen to be one of those who really believe that Jesus did these things and that we could also do them if we had the know-how. It takes nothing away from Jesus when we say that in addition to his love and compassion and his great humanity, we also have access to the same Power, which enabled him to do such wonderful things. Even his own followers thought he must have been using a power that no one else possessed; however, when we study his words carefully, we find that he said that others could do what he did if they followed the same rules. Jesus was not the great exception; he was the great example, and he even said that "greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father." What we want to find out, then, is the nature of this Power that Jesus used, learn how it operates, and then apply it in our own lives in helping ourselves and also in helping others. I am not thinking only about the healing miracles when people have been restored to physical health. For while this is wonderful and good, there is much more to life than merely getting rid of a pain. Jesus had access to some kind of Power that was available for every purpose. He had access to an Intelligence that guided him in everything he did. And he had a deep inward peace and feeling of security that removed all confusion and doubt and uncertainty from his mind. What we want to find is the key that unlocks the doorway to the Power greater than we are. What we want to do is to discover the secret, which he so plainly told us was a certain kind of relationship he had to God, who, he said, was present everywhere and was also within him and within everyone.
We are accustomed to thinking of the powers and energies in nature, and we know that the whole field of modern science is devoted to the discovery of these powers and learning how to apply them for our everyday needs. We also know that these powers which science uncovers have always existed, they were always there waiting to be used, and always ready to respond when we use them rightly. We think of a scientific man as one who uses a power of nature. We do not say that he possesses it as a personal thing. For, of course, this would not be true. What we say is that science discovers the power, unlocks its energy, and then uses it for definite purposes for the betterment of humanity. What we really mean by this is that there are certain physical laws and physical powers in nature, which are greater than we are but which can be used, and that these powers operate for us as though they were our servants. We employ them; we do not implore them. That is, we do not beseech them, we do not coerce them, and, as a matter of fact, we do not even concentrate them. We merely use them. But Jesus had access to another kind of power, which he called the Power of the Spirit. We cannot doubt but that there are spiritual powers which act like physical ones; that act for us and in a certain sense become our servants when we have first leaned how they operate. But in doing this, we must always comply with them, for the secrets of nature are disclosed, and the powers of nature can be used only when we first comply with the way they work. Of all people in the world, the true scientist is the most humble. He stands in reverence and awe before the wonders of a self-operating universe that operates independently of his will, his coercion, or even his desire. When it was discovered that a hen lays a certain number of eggs and then sits on them and hatches out chickens, someone had the foresight to realize that you can have as many hens as you want to sit on as many eggs as they can cover and produce as many chickens as are desirable, provided you actually put the hen and the eggs together. Here is an example of the way nature works, with complete independence of our thoughts and our will and our desires, but always with this in mind, that when we comply with the way she works, we receive the benefit.
And so it is with every scientific discovery. In the laboratory, man observes the laws of nature, discovers how they work, and then applies them, and nature herself
produces the result. We are so used to thinking of this that we take it for granted, not realizing that every day, in some physical laboratory, new things are being revealed to us because we are learning how to cooperate with the Source of all power. Jesus worked in a different kind of laboratory. He understood a different set of laws, and because he used these laws, a power was delivered to him that has amazed the world. It is our purpose to rediscover these laws, find out how they work, and apply them for every legitimate purpose, and then reap the benefit for us and for others. Of course, in doing this, it is necessary that we follow the example of the one who really knew. The only reason we have to suppose that Jesus knew is that he proved his claim. What we should do, then, is to find out exactly what Jesus believed, and why, and how he used this secret of the ages so effectively. The first thing we shall learn is that Jesus believed himself to be one with God, and he believed that the Divine Presence was right where he was. He communed with this Presence through prayers and meditation until it was the most real thing to him in life. We find, then, that the whole background of his teaching starts with the idea that there is such a Presence and such a Power; that the Presence is accessible to all of us, and that the Power can be used by anyone who has faith in it. This is no doubt the greatest secret of the ages. It is the miracle of the answer to prayer. It is the miracle of Life itself. We need to believe that you and I, so little and so alone, do have access to a Power that has the possibility of making everything in our lives happy and harmonious if we cooperate with it. Right here, I would like to inject this thought – for it is one that so many people express – how can we believe in a Power that we can neither touch nor taste nor handle?
The answer to this is simple enough. Let us go right back to the hen sitting on her eggs. Neither you nor I nor the hen ever put a chicken in an egg, nor did we ever take one out. The hen, instinctively, by some method of which she is not consciously aware, follows the law of her own life. She lays the eggs and then she sits on them, and nature performs the miracle for her. The Power, which does this, cannot be touched or tasted or handled. It cannot be seen. And yet, we are so used to it that we never question the results. We build incubators and set the eggs in them, and subject them to a certain heat for a certain period of time, with complete
assurance, with absolute faith, because experience has taught us that we can do this and have chicks hatch. So it is with every law that we use. No one has ever seen the powers of nature. We only see how they work, and we accept them with the simplicity of a child. Again someone might ask: How can we believe in a Divine Presence when we have not seen it? The answer to this also is simple. How can we believe in the law of attraction and repulsion, which we have not seen? How can we believe that a magnet will attract iron since we do not see the power of attraction that draws it? No one has ever seen love or human affection; no one has seen kindness and tolerance and human understanding; but we have all felt them, and we have no more doubt of their existence than we do of our own being. I do not think we need to be concerned with the fact that we do not see God other than in His creation, or that we have not seen the forces of nature other than in and through what they do. When Jesus told us that we should have faith, he was not telling us about something that is impossible for us attain, for Jesus was the most simple and direct of men, and he knew that faith is a natural attitude of mind. It is the very simplicity of his teaching that eludes us. As a matter of fact, it is so easy that it is hard, so simple that it is difficult, so direct that we fail to catch its significance. For whether or not we know it, we all have faith. We are merely mostly using it in reverse. So Jesus told us that there is a Divine Presence that will guide us if we let it. And he told us that there is a Power that will operate for us if we believe that It will. But he also told us that this Presence is love and this Power is good and that we cannot hope to derive the greatest benefit from the Presence as Divine guidance, or the Power as the operation of Divine Love, until we first greet the Presence in love and use the Power for good. So far as I know, he laid down no instructions other than these: God is love and God is good. Therefore, Divine Power is delivered to us only in such degree as we love and as we are constructive.
All the prayers or the will of man can neither add to nor take from the powers of nature. This is so self-evident that one cannot even argue against it. What we have to do, then, is to invite the Presence and use the Power. We invite the Divine Presence every time we think about It in love and with true humility. We draw
inspiration into our minds and into our imaginations and loose it through our actions when we recognize this Presence, and we benefit from the use of the Power when we comply with the way it works.

Cathrine comes from the west coast of Jutland, from small town called Ringkøbing. In January 2013, what seemed to be a "normal" internship became an amazing academic journey that allowed her to develop her thesis in collaboration with the Danish Cancer Society and improve her social research skills . In this post she will take you through her journey by sharing her experience.
I am a Bachelor's student from January 2013 with specialisation in Public Health Nutrition & Food Policy. I am currently looking into possible candidate programs and at the same time applying for jobs while working part time in my old line of work: as an airhostess at SAS. I am 41 years old, I am married and together with my husband we have four(!) sons.
My Bachelor's thesis "Transfer of Menu Board Labelling experience. From the United Kingdom to a Danish setting" was developed in co-operation with the Danish Cancer Society's Department of Prevention & Documentation.
My findings at this moment are being used by them, the Consumer Council, The Danish Heart Association and the Danish Diabetes Association together with major Danish fast-food outlets, to develop a set of guidelines to implement Menu Board Labelling in Denmark. A fellow student and I did a literature review of relevant grey and scientific literature on implementing and effects of MBL (primarily literature from USA) and based upon the review and the report and guidelines already developed for implementing MBL in the United Kingdoms, we wrote the guidelines and recommendations for MBL implementation here in Denmark. But coming to an agreement between industry and the involved Danish NGO´s has taken longer than expected. Therefore MBL with not be implemented before summer 2014.
Initially I and a fellow student was doing our 6th semester (and I also my 7th. semester) internship at the Danish Cancer Society, where our tasks was to do a literature review (which we had only briefly had experience with once before at the 5-days-exam) of grey and scientific literature on the international experience with Menu Board Labelling (MBL) and the effect on the consumers, followed by a written report which with recommendations on how to implement MBL in Denmark and assure the Danes understanding and correct use of this calorie/kilo Joule information.
What started as an internship randomly picked turned out to be a huge academic journey for me. We were assigned our own office and our results and findings were closely followed by the Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Fisheries of Denmark (Fødevareministeriet) and the Danish fast-food industry involved in the project.
From knowing little (nothing!) about MBL we both turned out as "experts" on the field. This led me to the decision to stay at the Cancer Society for another internship. This way I could use my knowledge and expertise and to turn my Bachelor's Thesis into a project, where I could partake in the next step of implementing MBL in Denmark as well as further increase my academic skills; in project management, social research and in academic writing. Not skills usually linked with a profession's bachelor, but most definitely something this specific education enables the students to master due to the combination of modules and relevant internships.
I was so fortunate to experience my work being used immediately, which was made the process extremely rewarding.
After submitting my thesis and before the final exam, Metropol (Aileen Robertson and Alexandr Parlesak) offered a session in how to turn our Bachelor's Thesis into a new abstract and poster with intends to admit them to a variation of nutrition conferences worldwide.
I submitted my poster and abstract to the Danish Society of Nutrition Research (Selskabet for Enæringsforskning) and the International Society of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity (ISBNPA) and I was accepted to both.
At SfE I was giving a power point presentation on my findings and MBL knowledge and at ISBNPA I was presenting my poster together with the always-great Chalida Svastisalee. I received a small funding from Metropol that covered approximately 1/5 of my expenses and unfortunately the Cancer Society was not able to assist my journey with funding.
I personally had from the beginning decided that attending was an investment in the future, but I also know that some have been accepted but have had to decline to attend due to lack of ability to cover all the expenses.
B U T, attending these conferences gave me the opportunity to do some very important networking with students and professionals (besides finding the boarding card of a professor at Aalborg University and in return getting an open invitation to attend lecturers, before deciding on a candidate and having a "near-death" experience in a taxi on the way to Ghent Airport with Chalida and two wonderful ladies from the DTU National Food Institute and to talk about my research and education in a inspiring and very professional environment.
I wish you all the best of luck at GHN and I hope I may have shed some light on what the education may lead to. I am not yet in a place, where I know my next step but I know I want to pursuit the political and communicative aspect of the education and in a Danish (at least European) context. I have just received notice from Copenhagen Business School that I need to obtain another 60 ECST´s to enter their candidate program in Political Management and Communication. 30 of them in social research methods so my first priority after Christmas is to prove to the admission board that due to my internships I am very experienced in social research methods. I´ll let you know what happens :)
A very Merry Christmas & a happy New Year!

SC convicts Sasikala in DA case
In a major blow for AIADMK general secretary V K Sasikala's chief ministeral dreams, the Supreme Court on today convicted her in disproportionate assets case.
Sasikala and three others have been asked to surrender themselves.
The Karnataka government had challenged the May 11, 2015, state High Court verdict acquitting Jayalalithaa, Sasikala and her two relatives – V.N. Sudhakaran and Elavarasi – for allegedly amassing disproportionate assets to the tune of Rs 66.65 crore during her first term as Chief Minister from 1991 to 1996.
The bench of Justice Pinaki Chandra Ghose and Justice Amitava Roy pronounced the verdict, that was reserved on June 7, 2016. The High Court's acquittal verdict had come on May 11, 2015.
The High Court, while acquitting the four, had reversed the trial court judgment convicting them on September 27, 2014.
The Bengaluru trial court had sentenced the late leader to four years in jail and imposed a Rs 100 crore fine in the disproportionate assets case. The trial lasted for 18 years.

Monkey and I had a playdate tonight with my friend Pam and her family. We went over to their house and Monkey had a blast running around and getting into things with their three girls. We both got out our cameras for some playing of our own, although nothing too serious. Here's one of his playdates:
Now, truth be told I can't remember for sure if I took this shot since I handed my camera off so Pam could check out the lens I had on and she snapped a couple, and this was taken right after one I know she took but right before one I know I took. So, in the interest of guaranteeing that these 184 photos are all ones I've taken myself, how about this one of Monkey playing peek-a-boo with Pam's husband, who was in the kitchen:
You can see another of his playdates peeking in the background. Now, looking at this one I'd say that either I took both, or we have very similar shooting styles. Either of which is a distinct possibility.

The theme for a photo of the week I sometimes participate in is "miniature," and I thought this fit although I'm not sure if I'll actually submit it. I love this little thing, although I grieve every time I think of how it came into my possession. A few springs ago–four to be exact–Firefly's second cousin was killed in a train/car collision, along with another little girl. They were both just five years old. He had a collection of little cars, and at their funeral his parents–Firefly's cousin and her husband–had everyone pick one to take home with them to remember him by. Mine was picked for me by his brother. It lives on my desk:
This is what I wrote in my old blog after we returned home from the funeral:
five years, three months, four days
should not come
in sizes so small,
and they should never
come in pairs.
and the awful truth is
i know that they come
in sizes
