Chris Porter scored twice as Crewe went on the rampage in a 5-1 defeat of a desperate Chesterfield side in League Two.
It looked ominous for the Spirietes as early as the sixth minute at Gresty Road when Porter took his tally for the season to five as he drove past Tommy Lee.
Chesterfield's Chris O'Grady volleyed over when well placed and Matthew Briggs skied a presentable far-post chance on the stroke of half-time.
But the game was out of reach of Gary Caldwell's men soon after the break with Crewe adding two inside seven minutes. Porter swept into the far corner after being released by Ryan Wintle after 47 minutes and young defender Perry Ng scored his first goal for the club seven minutes later.
A poor throw by goalkeeper Lee was intercepted and Ng strode into the box and drove home. Cooper added a fourth in the 66th minute when he turned his man and picked his spot.
Chesterfield grabbed a consolation when Kristian Dennis' shot came back off the bar and hit defender Eddie Nolan before rolling into the net with 18 minutes to go.
But substitute Callum Ainley rounded off the rout as he finished off from close range with nine minutes to go after Jordan Bowery's effort was parried by Lee.

It was a crazy idea… Not the first I have had. Probably not the last.
I wanted to do what I could. I didn't have much, so figured it wasn't much to lose. I wanted to save sharks and do real research that would help to protect our ecosystems. I had seen to much madness – everyone fighting for money and not really caring about impacts humans were having.
Always fought for research dollars- never got much of them. Funny to me that we know more about outer space than inner space. I guess that is why I started working on and with the ocean. How to take that into my own hands?
In comes the Sea Watch. She is a big girl that needed se love and care. She had been decommissioned from USC's research fleet. They dropped funding and had left her setting at dock in Fish Harbor.
I had been approached to run a vessel for Discovery Channel for a Shark Week Production called Great White Triangle.
I bought her for a song. Friends volunteers and family helped to refit and fix her.
As things evolved – I began to realize our real mission. It wasn't hard to see. We were motivating and inspiring while teaching many people. The stories of our adventures drew people in. They wanted to learn and become involved.
Fast Forward to present.
We have cast the lines and shoved off on our biggest adventure to date. We are heading south into the unprotected waters of the eastern tropical pacific to fight pirates, poachers and shark finners. We have truly become EcoPirate s – we are the Pirates of of the Pacific.
Short on funds, not everything repaired, not everything is ready- but we are out of time. Either give up or go…the point of not return had come…. Push had came to shove.
We are at sea aboard the Sea Watch. We call her the SharkBoat. Day 1 of our adventure sends us back to where it all began…. Fish Harbor
Follow our journey

As a way to promote women's empowerment and gender equality, UNIC Windhoek is continuing with its #WednesdayCelebrateWomen campaign from last year, through which the Centre celebrated inspiring women each Wednesday. This year, as a way to get to know each feature better, UNIC Windhoek will feature one inspiring women per month.
For this month's #WCW, UNIC Windhoek celebrates Christolina Kaventura, a registered nurse by profession who is popularly known as Sister Christy.
Sister Christy is currently employed at the Cancer Association of Namibia (CAN). She is actively involved in generating cancer awareness at the community level and through social media, in the organization of wellness days and in training nurses on pap smears and breast examinations. Sister Christy's true passion involves the National Cancer Outreach Programme which allows her, together with the CEO Rolf Hansen, to visit the rural areas of the country to host cervical and breast cancer screenings and to educate fellow Namibians.
Check out Sister Christy's interview with UNIC Windhoek! Read along as she talks about cancer in Namibia, challenges faced by Namibia's health system and shares her thoughts on women's empowerment and gender equality.
Can you tell us more about your appointment to the First Lady's Advisory Council? What kind of positive changes do you hope to promote while on the council?
The appointment was on 01 November 2016 and is till 31 October 2020, and it is [given to] individuals with expertise on HIV and cancer related issues.
The First Lady personally requested several referrals to advise on women's health for oncology (specifically, cervical cancer awareness, education and screening). I along with other candidates from CAN were appointed. I commit myself to providing information and advice on matters critical to health, and I engage in matters/activities where action is needed to the benefit of the council. I wish to provide innovative ideas based on my work experience and exposure in support of the First Lady's strategic pillars (health).
What are your thoughts on women's empowerment and gender equality?
Every woman deserves the right to quality education and health care services. An empowered woman has more confidence and the ability to tackle gender inequality.
Women should be seen as equal members of the community. Through this, they will achieve more respect. Women's empowerment and equality is negatively affected by the cultures and should be addressed through the engagement of traditional leaders and headmen.
I think there has been a certain level of improvement in terms of gender equality in Namibia, but sometimes there tends to be a level of misunderstanding or misinterpretation.
In terms of women's empowerment, what would you like to see happen in the next generation?
I would like to see more women taking leadership positions in many organisations, [increased] visibility of innovative and creative young women in this generation as well as all possible opportunities in terms of human development benefiting women in Africa.
I want more young women to be able to participate in policy and decision making plans. The Government, as well other organisations, should start investing intensively in awareness raising and putting in place measures to control violence against women. I would like to see more young women being educated at the tertiary level and outnumbering men in medicine and technical fields.
What are your thoughts on health care in Namibia?
My most vast worry about Namibian health care lies with the quality of life for patients up until end of life, for palliative patients. There is a huge need of a palliative care centre or hospices in Namibia.
Unequal distribution of health [resources] still remains a concern because health care in Namibia still benefits the rich or the high-income population, as they can afford private health care services. We need systems that can connect our healthcare systems in Namibia and allow all Namibians, irrespective of our socioeconomic background, to have better access to quality healthcare.
I have noticed that the nurse/healthcare provider – patient relationships, especially in the state health facilities, have been negatively affected/influenced. The general community talks negatively about the health care providers in state facilities, and this leads to patients no longer having faith in treatment received. This may affect patients' recovery and may lead to an increase in many patients not seeking health care and not adhering to treatment. This should be taken seriously and be improved through awareness.
More still needs to be done to ensure continuity of care in state facilities as well as between state and private facilities. The nation needs to be more informed or made aware that health care does not only remain the responsibility of the Government/Ministry of Health and Social Services, but each one of us is highly responsible for our own health while [possibly, simultaneously] responsible for others (in the case of children, their parents take responsibility).
There seems to be weaknesses in keeping lines of communication between health care providers and patients/families/employers, and the psycho-social aspect of health seems to be neglected by our health care systems. Patient health care does not only end with the patient's life, but every patient does have a social life too. This includes families or employers, and they play a huge role in the patient's recovery and rehabilitation. I think more education needs to be done on the psycho-social aspect of health in order to better recovery, rehabilitation and to counteract discrimination or stigma in cases of some chronic illnesses, as this may improve the qualities of life amongst those affected.
There are still areas of [Namibia] where patients, especially in remote rural areas, have to drive from far, especially for cancer treatment, since the only treatment centre is the AB May Cancer Care centre in Windhoek. Traveling this far from home may be an overwhelming burden, sometimes with little help from the CAN with transport money. Sadly, sometimes some patients choose not to be treated at all or delay to come for their treatment. We hope in the future with more oncologists these services will be brought closer to these isolated regions/areas.
What's your take on cancer awareness in Namibia, and what do you think can be done to better the level of awareness of preventable cancers?
According to researchers, 40% of cancers can be prevented. Currently CAN is doing its best, through the National Cancer Outreach Campaigns, to create awareness. More still needs to be done because awareness creation and public health education should be an on-going process. Health care information systems in Namibia need to step up, and these systems should be [not be fragmented and instead be integrated].
More public awareness and education through the media on healthy lifestyles and the link between HIV/AIDS and some types of cancers should be done. The Government can play a critical role but through synergistic partnership with civil societies to improve awareness and reduce duplication in cancer as well as ensure accurate information is delivered (this will ensure everyone is spreading the same message). This will help the nation in taking the message seriously.
Political mobilization, a union of more awareness activities and more youth involvement will support a comprehensive approach in preventable cancer awareness. The general public should also involve themselves in these cancer awareness activities through social media (Facebook, Twitter and Instagram) and share the message of healthy lifestyles, early detection in order to prevent these cancers.
I think it will also be important to introduce the link between cancer and healthy life styles or basics on childhood cancer as a topic into the school's life skill curriculum as from the upper primary level. Children need to be made aware before they start with activities, like smoking and alcohol consumption, because sometimes is difficult to stop when already started. If measures on awareness creation are taken at an early level, then misconceptions about some forms of cancer will be counteracted and people will start seeking health care early. Those individuals who are public figures, community leaders, traditional leaders/healers and political leaders should be used for or be involved in spreading the message of healthy lifestyles, early warning [signs] and the importance of timely health care for cancer.
In your experience, what is the most common type of cancer in Namibia and which gender is mostly affected?
The most prevalent type of cancer is breast cancer; the most affected are women. Whereas, skin cancer is the second most prevalent and more common among men. Cervical cancer [is also] increasing at an alarming rate, of course only affecting women.
The United Nations adopted the Sustainable Development Goals in 2015, which include 17 Goals that aim to transform the world by 2030. Which of the SDGs resonates with you the most and why? How do you / plan to work towards achieving this goal?
Goal 3: Ensure Healthy Lives and Promote Well-Being for All at All Ages.
As we all know without a healthy nation, sustainable development cannot be achieved. Health is a fundamental human right for everyone, irrespective of your gender, race, age educational status or socio-economic background. Every person is entitled to have the best possible health status. As a health worker, I feel is my responsibility to be part of the team that actively works hard in order to promote health, prevent disease and prolong life.
As part of the CAN, I will use the opportunity during the national cancer outreach campaigns, to be able to monitor and assess the challenges faced by our health systems and communicate accordingly. As we are all aware, lifestyle choices determine our health and well-being. Therefore, during these community campaigns and educational talks, I will try my utmost best to create awareness and provide health education on the importance of healthy lifestyle choices and timely health care, not only [for] cancer but [for] health in general.
Why is it important to empower women and girls to pursue careers in the medical field, especially in a society where traditional cultural roles dictate the value and rights of women?
It is and will remain my wish for women to outnumber men in the medical field. Women have always been central in providing medical care, whether offering remedies in the home, nursing homes and villages or through their roles as mothers, caretakers or nuns, because of this I think women will make the best doctors.
Medical knowledge is developed and passed on in many ways. Every community has ideas about the causes of and cures for suffering, illness and disease. These are often spiritual/ traditional beliefs as well as practical therapies, techniques and cultural practises which sometimes causes misconceptions about health. I think the women are the most important pillars of the nation in overcoming these misconceptions. Therefore, it is important to have women in the medical field.
In my experience as a nurse, patients tend to be more assertive with women health workers. They seem to be more open to them (patients feel like they are really talking). If we have more women as doctors [in a] society where traditional cultural roles dictate the value and rights of women, I think that women will be able to advocate for others and be more valued and respected.
After a long day at work, what do you do to unwind?
Life is all about balance. After a long day at work, family time is always on the call out. I spend time at home with my family performing my responsibilities as a wife and a mother (cooking, cleaning) and have a 30-minute period of physical activity (exercise). I also spend some time watching TV with my kids. I enjoy doodling on weekends or curling up with a good book. Sunday is mostly preserved for relaxation.
What motivates you, and who is your role model?
My husband is my biggest motivator. I will not be embarrassed to mention that since ever we started socialising years back, he has been telling me how vital my education and dreams are. He always reminded me that no real man wishes to be with a woman who is not esteeming her dreams. Though, taking my life seriously or being who I want to be was not all because of him, but [our relationship] gives me stimulus in doing what I want to do and helps me broaden my personal horizon.
Working for a welfare organisation like CAN has intensified my passion for helping others, and this also inspires me to help others and bring change in their life. I get a lot of support from my manager, CAN CEO Mr Rolf Hansen. He always helps me discover the extent of my capabilities and helps develop my leadership and problem solving skills.
I have some motivational [characteristics] myself; I am a hard worker, positive thinker and I've learnt a lot from my toughest failures and [use these lessons on the path to] my future. My late Grandfather was and will always be my role model, because of the way he led by example and instilled in me good solid values. He will remain my main inspiration. I am who I am today because of his support.
What is your advice to girls following their dreams?
To all girls following their dream, you have already made the right decision by doing so. All you need to know is that with a lot of hard work and a good education, anything is possible. Your dreams are what [get you through] during difficult times, and during these difficult times, always find time to remind yourself that you are in the right track and in the end you will be an inspiration to others.
Learn from your mistakes and never give up. Never allow your dream to be shaped or determined by others expectations because no one else will pursue them for you. As we all know in life we come across people who make you feel your dreams are impossible, use this as fuel to make your dream come true and prove them wrong.
Sometimes [dreams are not understood by] parents and [because of] some cultural backgrounds. Keep your head high and be strong because in the end you will make them all proud. In life, every girl is special and every girl has earned the right to be exactly who she is. Each one of us has a unique story to tell about life, with our own unique dream and will go through different challenges and different routes to reach them, but in the end the most important is that you will get there and accomplish your goals and dreams, no matter how long it takes.
Always rely on yourself, just make use of others to guide you, because when all else fails, you need to put on your metal shoes and do it yourself because you can. Remember that being at the wrong place at the wrong time, with the wrong people can ruin a person's life. It is important to make sure you hang around the right/positive people who will motivate you to do the right thing.
It is important for every girl to follow their dream with integrity. It's not about how you look in the eye of others but is who you are in terms of humanity. It's about your morals. No matter how things are around you and how many times you fail, [it is important to be] decent, truthful, and honest, and most importantly to honour yourself.
Last but not least, cast your burden to the lord, pray to Him and He will carry you through. With Him you will never fail. "The integrity of the upright will guide them but the perversity of the unfaithful will destroy." Proverbs 11:13

In Spring 2015 I launched my home business teaching art classes to children.
I have experience both with the arts and working with children including:
- KidzArt Instructor, K-2nd Grade
- "Mission: Renaissance" Fine Art Instructor, K-6th Grade
- Homeschooling Vendor for Visions, Inspire, South Sutter & Placer CORE
- Custom Pastel, Watercolor & Oil Paint Artwork
- FAME Art Docent Elementary School Volunteer
- UC San Diego, B.A. in Visual Arts
- Girl Scout Troop Leader, Seven Years and counting
- Parenting my own 11 and 13 year old boy and girl
- And I'm so proud of my current art class students who have won Crocker Art Museum & Yearbook Cover Art Contests!
About Art Classes
In my art classes, children will learn fine art skills that will last a lifetime. I teach a classical method of drawing and painting that anyone can learn. At the first class, students will be given the step-by-step tools to build a drawing and add colorful, true to life effects to make a beautiful work of art. Not only will they build technical skill, but they will gain self-confidence. This decreases frustrations and opens them up to the joy that comes with discovering their own creative success. While classes take place in a group-setting, I work one on one with each child to allow them to work independently and progress at their own pace.
Classes are ongoing, weekly 90 minute sessions. This gives ample time for children to take their time, clean up, and finish class with a mini art show. They will begin the program with drawing pictures and coloring them with pastels. Once they have mastered drawing they may progress to watercolor painting.
I look forward to helping your child "see" the world in a new way as they grow into independent and confident artists!

"Mommy...Why does that bird keep crashing into our window? What's wrong with him?" my son asked.
The robin had been hanging around our house for weeks, perching on a piece of patio furniture, gazing at our glass patio door, and periodically flying head on into it - crashing - then falling down, stunned. He'd repeat it several times - for hours some days, unless we'd scare him off.
"He sees his reflection. He might think it's another bird, but it's really just him."
As I said it, I thought about how we, as human beings, have the tendency to beat ourselves up. We can be so self critical - of our physical appearance, our abilities, our emotional state, our behavior, and of mistakes we make that it feels like we are crashing into a window over and over again. Sometimes the self-loathing "crash" can be in the form of extremely negative self-talk, excessive drinking, taking risks or sabotaging relationships that we don't feel worthy of.
We also might see certain qualities or behaviors in others that disturb us, however, it's important to consider that sometimes, we are just recognizing our own reflection. We are seeing a quality that lives within us and we are rejecting it. It's not about the other person, it's about us...we are looking at our own reaction reflecting back at us, just as the bird reacts to its reflection by crashing into it. The robin thinks he's seeing another bird, but really, it's just him.
In Buddhism and other Eastern philosophies, there's a concept called dualism and non-dualism. As human beings, we have the capacity for self-reflection. We connect with an independent, dualistic sense of self, our ego. We learn that in many ways, we are separate from each other - we look different, we make different choices, we live different lives.
But sometimes, we grow so attached to our differences, that we exist only in this dualistic reality, and assume that everything is separate from us. Our American culture is very much one about independence of the individual. Even our medical system looks at our wellness in pieces, under the assumption that the mind and emotions are separate from the body. Unfortunately all too often, no one makes the connection that they're all linked. Body, emotions, mind, sense of self, health, environment - it's all one. One system affects the other and they're so intertwined that to address them separately is like trying to patch cracks in the mortar, when, if you would step back, you'd see the whole infrastructure is teetering on the brink of collapse. Without that perspective of the whole, looking at individual pieces can result in a lot of band-aids without a real cure or solution.
While this concept can be applied to many parts of life and society as we know it, I like to consider non-dualism on a personal and interpersonal level - the notion that we are all connected and that we are more similar than we are different. Not only that, but that we can look to others and into nature to see our own reflection - to understand who we are, how to grow, and ultimately, what the solution is to anything we might be experiencing.
We aren't separate within ourselves and we aren't separate from each other. Just as any plant, animal or even the earth itself moves through changing cycles of growth, destruction and renewal, so do we. Just as everything has a beginning and end, so do we, and so does every state that manifests - mental, physical, and emotional - all have a beginning and an end. Recognizing these cycles as part of the design of our universe, our world, and our reality, can help us accept not only ourselves and any life change that we move through, but we can see ourselves reflected in the world around us. We can begin to see that we are all one, in the ways that count. From this place, grows compassion and understanding, empathy and universal love for not just each other but all living things.
As I watched the bird crash into the patio door over and over again, I was reminded of the importance of letting go and moving on. Why would we want to do anything else? Seeing his struggle and understanding it, feeling it, and knowing what I as an individual could choose to do to stop the pattern, I saw my own reflection in the behavior of a robin on a warm summer's morning.
We can choose to look into the mirror and celebrate the details of our individuality, but know that at heart, we are all from the same center and live similar cycles. We can look at our reflection and know that we are not alone. We can choose to step back and see all the intertwined fibers of our reality, and we can choose not to suffer over life's details, but to accept whatever we are presented with as an opportunity to learn and to support each other with compassion and understanding. Because we are all in this thing called "life" together. We all share the spark, from the tiniest insect to the largest tree, from the most impatient woman to the most frail child, from the strongest man to the most wise elder. In the most important ways, we are the same...
The bird doesn't come around anymore. I imagine he's moved on, in the moment, flying somewhere free, memory of crashing into his own reflection just dust in the wind.

Purple and Turquise are all the rage this season.
2 Replies to "A bit of purple"
I like the color saturation and how the reflections draw the eye to the shape of the boat.
Very beautiful. I really love how the silohuettes (sp?) break up the colors of the sky and the water.

Bosnian Memories is an example of how the combination of oral history and technology can contribute to rebuilding trust in a post-conflict society.
It provides online access to personal narratives of war across borders of language and culture, and aims to support the development of an inclusive society with space for multiple historical interpretations and uneasy truths.
Scholarly research and human rights practices have shown that the preconditions for long-term social and economic development in post-war societies are largely determined by the capacity of its political leaders, media, judiciary, intellectual community and educators to deal with a burdened past. New independent countries in the Western Balkans, former republics of Yugoslavia, are facing the challenge of building a civil society strong enough to publicly acknowledge the history of ethnic cleansing during the war in the nineties, and systematic killing and displacement of minority groups in World War II.
Without public recognition of these traumatic events, the past will remain an obstacle in the process of forging a stable and peaceful society. The process of articulating war experiences is a necessary condition for the social agency of different groups that are not at all or insufficiently represented in the public realm, political discourse and historical curriculum.

Huskies Finish 1st Round of NCAA Golf in 3rd Place
May 30, 2002
Columbus, OH - The Washington men's golf team completed its rain-delayed first round of play at the NCAA Golf Championships at Ohio State's Scarlet Course with a 5-under score of 279 on Thursday morning. The Huskies are in third place overall, two stroke behind top-ranked Georgia Tech and Illinois. Colorado is in fourth place at 4-under.
Husky sophomore Brock Mackenzie (Yakima) shot a 66 to tie Colorado's Ben Portie for the opening round lead.
Washington's first-round ended Wednesday afternoon when heavy rain suspended play with the Huskies on holes 15-17. Washington returned to the course at 7:15 a.m. ET Thursday and finished out its round by paring every hole with the exception of a birdie by junior John Robertson (Olympia) on the par-4 16th hole and a bogie on the par-3 17th hole.
'A good start is always better than a bad start,' says Husky first-year coach Matt Thurmond. 'You have to be happy that all five guys were in it until the end with us throwing out a 72 toward the team score. It was all you could ask for in a first round. With one guy going low and everyone else doing a good job, it was a perfect team round.'
Mackenzie's 66 goes in the Husky record book at the lowest score in postseason competition. He bettered his own mark of a 67 he shot during the final round of this year's West Regional where the Huskies tied New Mexico for first-place honors. His gross score and score vs. par was the fourth best round by a Husky golfer this season.
'He has really stepped up,' Thurmond said. 'He did it at regionals and he did it during the first round here. That's what you hope for from your number one guy, that he would be out front leading the way. To be out leading the tournament, that's even more than you can expect.'
Mackenzie's score was the 14th time this season he has carded a score in the 60s. It was the 24th time in 44 rounds that he has shot under par. His score was one stroke off equaling his career best of a 65 he shot at The Prestige in October. Mackenzie had seven birdies during his round.
Robertson also finished under par for Washington, shooting a 70 during a round that featured two birdies and just one bogie.
As a team, the Huskies had 19 birdies during the first round, including six that were chip shots from off the green. Washington led all Division I teams this season with 696 birdies entering the NCAA Championships according to Golfstat.com.
Husky sophomore Corey Prugh (Spokane) added a even-par 71 to the UW's effort while classmate Dan Potter (Coeur d'Alene) and junior Conner Robbins (Bremerton) both shot 1-over 72.
The Huskies' opening round 279 was their third best first-round score of the season. Washington shot 277 at the Vandal Fall Classic and carded a 276 on the way to winning the Western Intercollegiate. It marked the 17th time this season the Huskies have turned in a single-round team score under par.
'Traditionally this year we haven't started very well,' Thurmond said. 'Our first rounds have been our worst rounds and we've had to come on strong in the middle rounds and in the end. That's what you worry about going into the opening round. You don't want to shoot a big number and get yourself out of it after the first round or the first two rounds.'
Washington's best finish at the NCAA Championships came in 1999 when the Huskies were fourth overall behind Troy Kelley's second-place finish.
The Huskies started their second round at 8:45 a.m. ET. Complete results and live scoring of the NCAA Championships is available at www.Golfstat.com

First Presbyterian Church Asheville is partnering again this Spring with Ministry of Hope the Chaplain's Program at Swannanoa Correctional Center for Women to Host a Mother-Child Retreat Monday, April 9 & Tuesday, April 10.
Swannanoa is a minimum security state operated facility. A small group of about 10 incarcerated women will be invited to spend two days and one night with their children ages 2- 11 at the YMCA Blue Ridge Assembly in Black Mountain. FPCA will provide host site volunteers for those 2 days including providing 4 meals and snacks. The children will meet their mother's on Monday morning April 9 spend the night, and return to their caregivers home on Tuesday afternoon April 10.
It has been recognized that children need quality, supervised time with their mother, especially while she is incarcerated and cannot see them regularly. Children face tremendous loss and sadness over their separation, and young children often have a lot of fear about what is happening to their mother. Mother's also benefit and gain skills in interaction with their children before time for their release. FPCA has taken on this important ministry, with a long tradition of area churches hosting the retreat.
Offsite Volunteers: Donations of snack food or monetary gifts for children's goodbye bags

OTOC lifts first-half profit to $2.7m
Mine infrastructure builder OTOC has posted a 264 per cent jump in first-half profit to $2.7 million.
The result was achieved on a 45 per cent surge in revenue to $73.8 million.
Chief executive Simon Thomas said despite difficult trading conditions in the mining services sector, the company had delivered strong revenue from its traditional North-West resources market and supplemented that revenue with solid growth in its government infrastructure, communications, facilities and surveying businesses.
OTOC said it would continue to evaluate acquisition opportunities as well as expand and diversify its service offerings, geographic reach and recurring revenue base.
Shares in the company were steady at 12 cents at 10.45am.

Hey everyone, and welcome! It's been that time of year again, where the Christmas trees get decorated, and Christmas meals are served. Everyone's in a jolly mood, and the festive music is still ringing in our ears. So, before we get fully into the swing of January, here's our musical Christmas menu:
In this end of year special, our Stars have handpicked a selection of fresh meals, that all excel in flavour. Prepare your forks and knives, because this playlist contains it all.
To kick off my reccomandation of the top three meals, I would like to start with a banger. This amazing song, chosen by our lovely master chef @ItsPugle comes straight from Australia, where rapper "360" will have a green and warm Christmas. Here it is: Yesterday, by 360 and Hein Cooper.
Main Course:
As a main course, I will recommend you one of the best meals on this menu, served to you by our amazing @julian_L. The name of his meal is "Brand New" by the american singer and songwriter Ben Rector. I don't really listen much to pop rock, but this song definetely made me open my mind to other genres.
To finish off sweet, I would propose a song from a known artist, namely MYRNE. Straight from the kitchen of our amazing chef @IguanaSetup I present to you "Confessions". You'll love this sweet, crunchy dessert.
Thanks for checking out our gourmet selection of goodies. I hope you liked it, have a merry Christmas if you're still celebrating - and a happy New Year to all! This has been Leo, and I'm signing off!
Loved it! :)
Thumbs up!
Great blog! @LeoRager

Breakfast is my favorite part of the day, but I never wake up early enough during the week to make something extravagant. So I normally have cereal with fruit. But this is a fun, easy and healthy way to have something different. I used Van's lite multigrain waffles - only 70 calories and 1 gram of fat per waffle. Use fresh strawberries instead of jelly for less sugar. And don't go crazy with the peanut butter.Read More

Good place
Aleksandra Horwood
Liked it a lot! Everybody so friendly, especially the life guard!
sophia lewis
Great place to train
Attila Csipkés
It was a Great event by Fabio Santos A.K.A. Professor Gringo.And this place is very lovely! Kind staff.
Shyam Khattri
Best place for top quality squash and gym. Swimming pool is a big bonus too..and staff....always helpful.
Good friendly staff
The gym doesnt have everything but this place is good overall. Clean, with good deals and pretty much everything you need
Wayne Horo
Excellent pool
Adam Smith
Great pool. Friendly staff. Useful gym for a regular gym goer!
Fariah N
Love this place!!! Great to go for a fun night out with a group. The whole concept of a drink which you play ping pong is great! You have fun and a workout which burns off the wine and you can deffo feel it in your legs the next day if you got into the game! The UV lighting is cool - wear white and you glow! More...
Matt Draper
I do love coming to bounce for the ping pong. I play with my friend who used to play for the county. We have great games. It's fun not retrieving the balls and getting table service. But it's just so expensive. 1hr with 2 pints each was just shy of £60 tonight! However, we say this every time we go and we still go back. More...
R Mutt
Bounce is quite unique business, where customers enjoy a good game of ping-pong with their meal or drinks. I must admit, their vegan pizza is one of the best I have ever had. The flavours were simply superb. However, my only critique would be the lack of communication to customers. When on arrival, I was left to play ping-pong with friends without knowing it would cost us to play a game. Though it was fun, I was slightly annoyed that we weren't told we had to pay after 20 minutes in. However, don't let my critique stop you and head down to Bounce for a newer and modern concept of dining. More...
Dave C
Plenty of tables to play Ping Pong on. I definitely recommend booking a table as it gets very busy. The tables are good with projected video for some interesting games you can play on them. There is also a bar which has a good range of drinks and an area for food. Definitely worth visiting with a few friends. More...
Kelemen Csaba
Attentive and friendly staff. Delicious, great serving and good beers. The restaurant is very cozy. Separate tables are also available.
If you want to eat very cheaply, McDonald's is a good choice. If you want more, do not eat in mediocrity because you can eat in the good places at almost the same prices. Such as. here! More...
Hayden Went
Table tennis and drinking? Awesome! This is just plain fun, no point in being too serious about the games, half the fun comes from hitting the balls into other people's games - or just other people! Accidentally of course, otherwise it'd be pretty frowned upon. Great place to bring anyone to and just have some easygoing fun. More...
Emma Burgess
I've been here twice. Once as part if a large group from work and the second as a small group for a birthday party. The venue was great for both. Staff are friendly and drinks are reasonably priced. Really fun nights out, expect the unexpected as there are ping pong balls flying everywhere. More...
Preciosa M
Staff are nice. Bouncers are a bit grumpy but I didn't have any issues with them. We're nice to me. Atmosphere is great for groups. Fast service and tried the wings, they were great More...
Gordon Allan
Good fun. Looked like it would be great for a group. They give you a big bucket of balls so no need to chase them around and there is also table service on drinks.
Dean Moiler
I love this place! It's been a staple party spot since I moved to London. The staff are really great, if you organise a party with one of their ping pong game masters you'll involve everyone in your group, not only the ones good at playing. The food is also pretty fantastic, though I'm always disappointed by the Blue Moon that is available as standard, even with a lovely looking orange slice (bring in some Camden Hells on tap!). Definitely a really great night out. More...
Could have a better cocktail menu. Also would be nice if there was just 1 other game than ping pong for those who went with friends. But that said the UV was a nice touch. More...
Emma Wood
Absolutely ridiculous time whacking pink ping pong balls all over the place. Great service good fun atmosphere. Pretty loud and much bigger than expected
Pierre Bertrand
The place is great, there is loud commercial music playing, a huge bar where you can but all sorts of cocktails and beers.
The most important thing : you can play ping pong with your friends!!
The ambience is very similar to a regular night club, except you can play table tennis. More...
Anders Jacobsen
Cool, cavernously huge ping pong venue with pizzeria, bar and plenty of ping pong tables. Some tables have interactive sensors/projectors for some more light-hearted, competitive fun. WiFi didn't work when we were there. More...
Rupert Oscroft
Very fun night out, a great place to go if you're competitive! Loved the contraptions for collecting the balls perpetually flying around- worth keeping an eye open for these as it's easy to get one in your drink (or face) if standing too close to some overzealous players!
Paul Snelling
We had our work Chrsitmas party here and it was fantastic. Reasonably priced especially for the area. The staff are polite and helpful. You can get them to organise a tournament or play casual. The atmosphere was brilliant so even though it was very busy it didn't feel over crowded. I would recommend this to any big group looking for an evenings entertainment. We went planning to leave after our time slot at 8pm and were there till close at 2am! More...
Bob Barton
Great fun if you play table tennis at any level. We just played ordinary ping pong but variations are available e.g. score points by landing the ball in areas marked on the table recorded electronically. No shortage of balls or decent bats. Food and drink also available. More...
Matthew Leopold
A vibrant and interesting bar. Obviously, lots of ping pong tables. But what makes it more interesting and fun are the helpers who arrange your time at the table. They set up group games, competitions and lots of different activities. The restaurant serves surprisingly good and upmarket food. More...
Caro Line
First visit to Bounce after hearing a lot of good things. The concept and atmosphere are fun; as a later private party we were taken to the smaller room to play ping pong. A great venue choice for a casual affair. More...
Avtar Sura
Many would have Bounce down as the best ping pong bar in London. Located just minutes from Old Street, it's a cool and quirky underground venue where groups of up to 20 in size can hire tables for all the competitive socialising they could possibly want. Away from the table tennis action there's a cocktail menu created by award-winning mixologists and a cracking pizza counter serving up all kinds of authentic Italian goods. More...
Diego Luiz
Best ping pong place in London. Packed during weekends, and week days during the winter, so book a table before going.
Equipment (paddles, ping pong balls, ...) nearly professional. They got some staff (ping pong gurus) to play and kinda teach as well (not sure if you need to book).
It's a bit pricy, but it's worthy it, especially with you want to go with many friends (4+)
Nice drinks as well! More...
Dan Bayliss
Had a fun time with the wonder ball. Pizza I had was really good and despite being so busy I got served quite quickly. Nice venue with a good atmosphere
Milosz Krasinski
It's called the home of Ping Pong for a reason. It's always great night out there. Very busy place though but service as whole is spotless. Expect high prices for everything as this is central London. However great investment for the very top experience you are going to remember for a long time. More...
Ben Carman
Wicked time, great to play table tennis in a pub with your mates wish you got more time. This is a great idea and well delivered would highly recommend a visit.
Jonathan Ben Garcia
Great place and atmosphere, but bar staff are too slow serving drinks.
Pranjal Jately
Very fun and social place. Not the place if you are looking for a serious game of ping pong. Would definitely recommend to those just playing for fun and socialising.
Robin Patel
Great place! Had so much fun. Really well thought out idea. Great place to take a date or meet up with a group. Food was alright, menu was a little misleading.
Dyana Zada
The place is amazing for Ping Pong and drinks, but not food.
I had a lot of fun with my friends, it is highly recommend for groups (Book first of course). The atmosphere, the music, the staff, the bar and the spaciousness were great. But I don't recommend the Chicken Anglais that I had which was not up to the expectation. Though it was elegantly presentable, fair quantity and well cooked, but it had a blunt and dull taste I felt it was not worth its price at all. More...
Luke Moore
Went with group of 9. One table was fine. Great change from just going to a standard bar.
Vincze Szilard
Really cool place, bar and ping pong - what a match - you can play infinitely, the guys are picking up the balls with a stick that has a mini tennis racket and an upside down basket ball net to it... it is so cool, so you can be lazy and not pick your balls up More...
The gym doesnt have everything but this place is good overall. Clean, with good deals and pretty much everything you need
Claudio Di Gregorio
Fun place. We booked a table tennis for 2 hrs and were about 15 people. Next time we'll surely book another table. Drinks were excellent, especially the gin selection. Pizza was also good.
Sam Siam
30 minutes is not enough. If you're coming here to play make sure you get an hour. Balls will be flying everywhere so if you're not into a little contact then don't bother coming! Excellent selection of food and drink to warm you up before you get into the competitive spirit. Great place to network and to more importantly, have fun! More...
Tony Ward
Great night! Loads of tables to play on and a flexible booking arrangement. Decent bar and good pizza's from the restaurant. Been twice now and would definitely go again. More...
Alex MacPhail
Brilliant fun for mates or functions!
Table tennis equipment is in great condition. Unlimited bucket of balls to use, which keeps getting refilled. Beers served while playing and placed on a little table next to the net.
Highly recommend this activity! More...
Angela Jarvis
Have belonged to this gym for over six years.The staff are charming and very helpful.The facilities are well organised and maintained.The pool is 25 meter length but has a proper deep end.If you avoid the pre work rush,lunchtime and post work times you can enjoy a very peaceful swim,a gem.There is also plenty of gym area if you are so inclined including free weights on the top floor. More...
Francisco Moreno
Great location, staff very helpful and nice, cheap, 25m swimming pool, decent machines practice fitness.
Decent gym for casual use. Dumbbells go up to 40kg. Would be perfect if it had a proper squat rack
Alice P
I love Charing Cross Sports Club. All the staff are warm and friendly, they go out of their way to help and there is always a great atmosphere the moment you arrive and see Monika's smile behind the reception desk. I really enjoy the swimming pool - 25 m. I think it is one of the best pools I have swum in - the water fresh and cool. What I love is that it's a place that feels like home - it's an individual club that knows its members and looks after them. More...
Pavel Valkanov
Small, but well run club. The highlights are the swimming pool and table tennis lessons. It never felt crowded or stuffy.
Pere Sarrio
Best gym and squash courts in Fulham
Annlin Chao
Very nice staff and clean swimming pool, enjoy so much exercising there!!
Jeremy Thomas
Great pool, squash courts and tip top friendly staff.
andrew ufot
The best sports club in town...the staff are ultra friendly.
soren Kristensen
Very nice facilities with a good atmosphere. Big pool (25 meters) and different classes with really good instructors.
Mark Ryan
Good local sports club and well priced.
Vitaly Savicks
Very nice sports club with a gym and a swimming pool for a competitive London price. The downsides are: very limited number of wight training machines and equipment, e.g. no pullup bar, no calve press chair, only a single bicycle (particularly weird, since there are many ellipticals and treadmills). More...
Beata Duncan-Jones
…for a Londoner? - the best pool in the world! Yes, this is what I say about Charing Cross Hospital Sports Club swimming pool each time I pass the reception desk after a swim.
If you ever dreamt of a private pool, feeling fed-up by the state of the local facilities, this is your pool! Yes, a very clean pool, quiet with friendly staff. Unlike in some other local pools, you will find no smell of urine, fungus or chemicals or noise, just the pleasant sound of swishing water. The cosy ladies changing room is clean and comfortable. The management look after the place very well and add items which improve comfort, such as hair dryers, plastic bags, grab rails or recently, new shower heads which make showering great. Hopefully an additional non slip mat will be placed on the approach to toilets to prevent slippage.
Doing back stroke you can enjoy a view through the glass wall of beautiful trees seen outside against the blue sky and planes passing overhead. You might think you are in Hawaii especially as the pool's water temperature is lovely and you never get a shock when immersing yourself in the water.
An additional attraction at this pool on some afternoons is an opportunity to watch swimming lessons being given by a genius teacher Perry, Norman or John the British champion. Inadvertent observations of their lessons helped me to learn the front crawl!
The pool does not seem crowded; in fact it is possible at times to be in the pool alone. The atmosphere is very good and people can do exercises by the side holding onto the rim of the pool if they want to. There are plenty of foam accessories freely available which can add attraction to the exercise, but mainly people swim in lanes.
These are my personal impressions, technical details about the pool and timetables can be found on the web page :-) More...
Wayne Faram
I have an off peak membership. There are 3 gyms, all laid out well. A good amount of aerobic machines, and the upper gym is ok if you want to use slightly heavier weights. A great mix of people. It's clean with very good air conditioning. Staff are helpful but relaxed. It's a gym for everyone. More...
Barnaby Rowland
Great value and pool
Rhys Thomas
Squash courts in OK nick. Had some issues with flooding before.
Luka Boyle
Fantastic, changing facility was great showers are nice and hot with an adjustable temperature, and lockers are great, and there are lots of spaces inside to put ur stuff. Poll has a deep end (3.90 m) that is great and a shallow end. There is lots to do and there are even diving boards! great and nice pool, but there doesn't seem to be any lifeguards and there are no lane ropes so be aware of that. More...
Bhavesh Pratap
I love this place. Good ambiance. A nice swimming pool.Not fully crowded and so you get to use any equipment of your choice at all times. Each and every staff is just brilliant. More...

DENVER — Three teenage girls from the Denver suburbs traveling to Syria to join militants from the Islamic State were intercepted by American law enforcement authorities at a German airport over the weekend and returned to their families, federal law enforcement officials said on Tuesday.
The young women, described in news reports as two sisters of Somali descent and a friend of Sudanese descent, were reported missing by their families on Friday. One family said they had taken their passports and $2,000 from home, according to the Arapahoe County sheriff's office, which said the families had no knowledge of why the teenagers had left.
The sheriff's office described them as 15- and 17-year-old sisters and a 16-year-old from another family.
Federal law enforcement officials said one teenager had apparently become inspired to join the Islamic State group and had coaxed the other two to follow. After receiving reports about their disappearance, officials detained them at the international airport in Frankfurt and brought them back to Denver.
The authorities in the United States have stepped up their efforts to stem the flow of Americans trying to join militant groups in Syria and in corners of Iraq controlled by the Islamic State. At least a handful of recruits appear to be young women who marry militants or work as battlefield nurses or in other support roles.
It is unclear whether the three young women will face any criminal charges. Suzie Payne, a spokeswoman for the F.B.I.'s Denver office, said they were "safe and reunited with their parents."

Birth Photography FAQ's
What is birth photography?
Birth photography is more than getting photos of the baby being born. There are so many emotions during a birth. If you want to remember your labor, the moments before welcoming your babe into the world, and your baby taking their first breath, please consider birth photography! There really isn't anything like the first moments following the miracle of birth, and with the rush of everything, it is impossible to remember every detail.
What services do you offer?
I offer birth photography, that covers the labor, birth, and up to 2 hours after the birth. As well as a package that includes a newborn session. In addition to birth photography, I also offer doula services! For more information on that, click here.
When should I book?
As soon as possible! My clients book anywhere from the moment they find out they're pregnant, to the third trimester. I take a limited amount of births per month, so I do suggest booking sooner than later! Another reason to book early, there is more time to make payments!
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes! I offer payment plans, because I understand that there are a lot of expenses for expecting parents. The payment amount and frequency is decided by you! The only requirement is that the final payment is made by 38 weeks in your pregnancy. If that isn't possible, because you booked late in your pregnancy, I will just wait to deliver your gallery until the final payment has been made.
What if my partner isn't comfortable with having an extra person in the room?
This is something that I hear somewhat often. I think it can feel intimidating to some, to think of having a stranger in the room with them. This is why I always have in-person consults with clients before booking photography, to answer any questions, and just get to know each other. I highly encourage having your partner read this blog post! It may help them have a better vision of what it will look like to have a photographer present. I've heard from many partners that in the end, they were so thankful for an extra person there.
What if my labor is really, really long?
Labor is unpredictable, and your labor can be long or short! I am fully aware of this, and am prepared to wait many hours for baby. There is no additional cost if your labor goes long. Depending on your progress, I may leave for a short time. Most likely, I will just find food or coffee that is near by. I like to stay close!
I'm a modest person.. I'm not sure birth photography is the right fit for me.
For my mamas who are more modest, and don't feel comfortable being exposed, I encourage you to look into birthing "outfits"! There are skirts, dresses, robes, bralettes, sports bras, etc. If you want some tips, I am happy to share ideas! Also, you get to choose what I photograph, and what is/isn't shared. Birth IS an intimate time, and I totally understand wanting some privacy.
How graphic will my photos be?
This is completely up to you! Some clients want photos of crowning, and some don't. I always ask! When you sign the contract, you have the choice of whether or not you want your photos shared on social media, and if you do, which images.
When do you come to my birth?
I typically arrive at your birth place when you are in active labor. It really depends on the person, and how their labor is progressing. I often tell my clients to call me when they're around 5-6cm, if they're being checked.
When do I call you?
Please, please, call me right away, when you think you're in labor! If it's during the day, a text is fine. If it's the middle of the night, a phone call! My clients usually let me know that they're experiencing some contractions, and then we go from there. If you're a second-time mom, I usually head in right away. Those second babies are often (not always!) born much faster. I would rather arrive early then miss the birth!
What if you miss my birth?
This has only happened one time, and it was one of my first births. My client waited to call me a bit too long! It was her first baby, and transition happened super fast. However, I now give my clients a lot of instruction on when to call me, to ensure this doesn't happen. Of course, there can be unpredictable emergencies, and it may be physically impossible for me to attend your birth. This is a worst-case scenario, and isn't expected. Also, for this reason, I have MULTIPLE photographers ready as backup!
Anyway, IF I miss your birth, because your baby was born quickly, I would still come as soon as possible. I would arrive at your birth, and start shooting as I normally would, and stay a little longer. There is still SO much to capture after the birth, so it isn't something I feel should be a concern! I hope that is reassuring.
What can I expect from you at my birth? Are you very involved?
My role at your birth, as a hired photographer, is to document all the details of your birth. I am essentially a fly on the wall, quietly moving around the room. My involvement is that of a photographer, unless you decide to add-on doula services. Of course, if an extra hand is needed, I will not hesitate jumping in if asked!
Do you shoot cesareans?
I would absolutely LOVE to shoot a cesarean. Unfortunately, the local Bellingham hospital does not allow photographers in the OR. If you are delivering at a hospital that allows it, wahoo!! I would love to document your birth. If you are having a c-section in Bellingham, there is still SO much of your birth to document. There are the moments before surgery, and following. If you want to talk more about how I can document your c-section, please reach out!
What hospitals do you cover?
I will shoot at whatever hospital my client is delivering at! If you are not local to Bellingham, please reach out and we can talk about the logistics of me traveling to your birth.
Do you use flash?
I do not. I feel it is too disruptive during labor. I do, however, adjust lighting as needed, if you don't have any objections. I like to turn on some lights, or open some blinds, to provide as much light as possible, without having the entire room lit up, for your comfort.
Do you shoot video?
I do! This is a possible add-on for all of my sessions. It is such a fun addition to any session! To see some birth videos, click here.
What else do you shoot?
I am a birth and lifestyle photographer. I shoot anything from birth, to newborn sessions, milestone, family sessions, in-home lifestyle sessions, Fresh 48 sessions, and more!
If you are interested in learning more about birth photography, doula services, or any other session that I offer, please inquire here! I can't wait to hear from you!

Learn HOW TO MAKE GLUE for your kids' projects with corn starch, vinegar and corn syrup. If you have kids, knowing how to make glue can save costs when crafting and can save the day if you run out of store-bought glue. This homemade glue is great for paper crafts and preschool projects.
I love making my own craft supplies here in my home daycare. We've made all kinds of homemade paints in the past, and today, I'm going to show you how to make glue.
We go through a ton of glue here in my daycare, so making our own glue saves money and waste, especially when we have toddlers and preschoolers at the craft table.
Little kids tend to use way more glue than necessary when they're crafting. They love gluing, but until they get the hang of really controlling the amount of glue they use for their projects, there's a lot of waste. That's where making your own glue can come in handy and save you some money.
This was the first time I've made homemade glue for my daycare kids.
The recipe is super easy, using corn starch, vinegar, corn syrup and water.
I'm happy to say that our homemade glue turned out great and worked well. The kids loved using it, and there was no need to feel we were being wasteful when they applied it too liberally to their projects.
Making homemade glue is a great for a few reasons:
- homemade glue is much less expensive than store-bought, bottled glue
- You can set out a large quantity in a pot or bowl for a group of crafters to make
- it's easier for a young child to dip into a jar of homemade glue than to struggle with a stubborn squeeze bottle
- it's just fun to make homemade stuff 🙂
Note: Homemade glue takes longer to dry than store-bought glue, but it really does work!
Note: Homemade glue is not an effective glue to make slime with.
How to Make Glue with 3 Kitchen Ingredients
Get the printable recipe at the bottom of this post
- 3/4 cup water
- 2 tablespoons corn syrup
- 1 teaspoons white vinegar
- 1/2 cup cornstarch & 3/4 cup cold water (combined)
- food colouring (optional)
- whisk
- container or jar for storing your homemade glue
How to make your glue
In a small pot, stir together your water, syrup and vinegar.
Place your pot on the stove and bring the liquid to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
While it's coming to a boil, combine the cornstarch and cold water in a small bowl.
Slowly whisk the corn starch and water mixture into the pot of boiling liquid.
Continue to whisk until everything is well-blended.
When the glue is well-mixed, remove the pot from the heat.
Allow your glue to cool a bit before pouring it into a glass jar or plastic container.
Let the glue sit overnight before using it.
And that, my friends, is how to make glue when your kids run out or when they tend to be wasteful with store-bought glue.
Below you'll find a few extra tips you might find handy when making homemade glue.
If your homemade glue thickens overnight
I will say that I had a moment of fleeting disappointment when I checked my glue after letting it stand over night. It had solidified into a thick gel.
The fix to thin homemade glue:
To remedy this, I added a tbsp or so of water, and gave it a good stir until the glue returned to a consistency I was happy with.
Adding colour to your homemade glue (optional)
If you like, you can stir a drop or two of food colour into your homemade glue before it cools. Adding a bit of colour helps young children see where they've applied their glue when they're crafting.
Using your homemade glue
Kids can apply their homemade glue to their projects using :
- paintbrushes
- cotton swabs
- craft sticks
How to store homemade glue:
Store your homemade glue in a sealed container in the fridge to prevent mold from forming.
Shake before using.
This homemade glue recipe is easy to make, and great for paper crafts and kids' craft projects.
- 3/4 cup water
- 2 tablespoons corn syrup
- 1 teaspoons white vinegar
- 1/2 cup cornstarch & 3/4 cup cold water combined
- food colouring optional

Tweed Marijuana Inc. announces the acquisition of additional seeds and plants
Apr 03, 2014, 17:16 ET
OTTAWA, April 3, 2014 /CNW/ - Tweed Marijuana Inc. ("Tweed Marijuana") (TSXV: LWI.H) announced today that its wholly-owned subsidiary Tweed Inc. ("Tweed") has completed an acquisition of medical marihuana seeds and plants from certain growers licensed under the Marihuana Medical Access Regulations (MMAR) in advance of the April 1, 2014 deadline for transfers to occur. The Marihuana for Medical Purposes Regulations (MMPR) allowed for the transfer of seeds and plants from growers licensed under the MMAR up until the end of March 2014 with authorization from Health Canada. With the requisite Health Canada authorizations, Tweed has completed transactions with a number of growers licensed under the MMAR whereby it has acquired over 60 new strains of medical marihuana so that patients who choose to obtain medical marihuana from Tweed can benefit from a wide variety of choices. With the addition of the newly acquired strains, Tweed will have over 80 strains it can offer patients.
One shipment of material which was intended to be acquired from licensed growers under the MMAR is being held by the RCMP while it confirms the details of the shipment. In an effort to be transparent, the RCMP was informed in contemplation of shipping the material and was invited to examine the material. No remuneration has been exchanged at this point and no payment will be made until the shipment arrives and is properly processed at the Tweed facility and tested by an independent laboratory. The contracts with the vendors relating to this shipment provide that if the transfer is disallowed by Health Canada or otherwise prohibited by law, the contract is void.
In addition to providing Tweed customers with additional variety, these purchases were undertaken to assist Tweed in ensuring that it had sufficient future inventory to meet demand, which is already showing signs of exceeding short-term production capacity. In the medium-term, Tweed believes that with those acquisitions which were completed and an acceleration of its own in-house growing capabilities, it will have sufficient supply available to meet expected demand.
Tweed welcomes the opportunity to introduce the newly acquired strains as quickly as possible in the coming months.
About Tweed Marijuana Inc.
Tweed Marijuana is a TSX Venture Exchange listed company. Its wholly owned subsidiary, Tweed, is a licensed producer of medical marijuana in Canada. The principal activities of Tweed are the production and sale of marijuana out of its facility in Smiths Falls, Ontario as regulated by the Marihuana for Medical Purposes Regulations.

WASHINGTON — President Trump broke with leading Republicans on Tuesday and voiced support for Roy S. Moore, the Republican Senate candidate in Alabama who has been accused of sexual misconduct with teenagers and has seen his campaign's prospects imperiled.
In his first extensive remarks on the accusations that date back decades, the president cited the vigorous denials by Mr. Moore, who is facing off in a high-stakes special election against Doug Jones, the Democratic candidate.
"He totally denies it," Mr. Trump said of Mr. Moore, who has been accused of molesting a 14-year-old girl and sexually assaulting another teenager.
Mr. Trump also said he was "very happy" that women in the United States are now coming forward with accusations of sexual misconduct against lawmakers and media figures, many of them Democrats.
Asked by a reporter about whether electing "a child molester" was better than electing a Democrat in the Alabama race, Mr. Trump responded by insisting that Mr. Moore denies the charges against him.
"He says it didn't happen," the president told reporters at the White House. "You have to listen to him, also."
For the president, defending Mr. Moore is a politically fraught echo of his own campaign, in which multiple women accused Mr. Trump of sexual improprieties that he vigorously denied. Like Mr. Moore, the president insisted his accusers were liars and dismissed calls by members of his own party to abandon his campaign. His support of Mr. Moore has renewed attention on those past allegations.
Mr. Trump's willingness to accept Mr. Moore's denials underscored the growing Republican divide in Washington, where party officials have worried that their connections to Mr. Moore — a Breitbart News-backed candidate — would taint establishment candidates across the country. Senate Republicans said on Tuesday that they were bewildered by Mr. Trump's weighing in on the Alabama race after he had remained quiet, and they said that the president had put them in a difficult position.
Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the majority leader, and House Speaker Paul D. Ryan of Wisconsin said last week that the accusations against Mr. Moore were credible, and called for him to abandon his campaign. Other senators have warned that Mr. Moore could be expelled if he were to be elected in the Dec. 12 vote.
But Mr. Trump set aside those concerns and suggested that a victory by Mr. Jones would jeopardize an agenda that the president's administration was already struggling to advance. Referring to some of the issues that Alabama voters prize, Mr. Trump attacked Mr. Jones, a former federal prosecutor in Birmingham who is now leading Mr. Moore in some polls that were taken after the misconduct accusations surfaced nearly two weeks ago.
"We don't need a liberal person in there, a Democrat, Jones," Mr. Trump said. "I've looked at his record. It's terrible on crime. It's terrible on the border. It's terrible on the military."
The president suggested that the passage of time, and the fact that Mr. Moore's accusers did not come forward earlier, should call into question the accusations. And he noted that Mr. Moore has been elected repeatedly by voters in Alabama.
"I do have to say, 40 years is a long time," Mr. Trump said as he left for a five-day Thanksgiving vacation at his Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Fla. "He's run eight races, and this has never come up. So 40 years is a long time."
In a statement after Mr. Trump's remarks, Mr. Jones's campaign said, "Doug believes the women, and that the people of Alabama will hold Roy Moore accountable."
Mr. Jones is scrambling to ensure that Alabamians do not forget the controversy. On Tuesday, his campaign repeatedly aired a new television ad featuring recent comments from Ivanka Trump, the president's elder daughter, who said that she had "no reason to doubt the victims' accounts" and that "there's a special place in hell for people who prey on children."
Until Tuesday afternoon, Mr. Trump had remained mostly quiet about the accusations against Mr. Moore. He had left it to his press secretary, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, to say that the president believed it was up to Alabama voters to decide the race to fill the seat left vacant by Jeff Sessions, now the attorney general.
The White House, though, had begun signaling its worries about the policy consequences of a victory by Mr. Jones. Kellyanne Conway, the counselor to the president, said on Monday on Fox News that Mr. Jones could not be counted on to support the tax changes that Mr. Trump is trying to push through Congress.
"Doug Jones in Alabama, folks, don't be fooled," she said. "He will be a vote against tax cuts. He is weak on crime. Weak on borders. He is strong on raising your taxes. He is terrible for property owners."
Asked whether that meant that the White House was urging a vote for Mr. Moore, Ms. Conway said, "I'm telling you that we want the votes in the Senate to get this tax bill through."
Mr. Trump's defense of Mr. Moore, who has been abandoned by nearly all of the Republican establishment in Washington, was seen as tantamount to an endorsement.
Mr. McConnell has called on Mr. Moore to step aside as a candidate, and the National Republican Senatorial Committee has severed ties with Mr. Moore, saying it would no longer raise money for his campaign.
Mr. Trump took a different stance on Tuesday, but he also signaled that his public support for Mr. Moore might not be without limits. He declined to say whether he would travel to Alabama to campaign for Mr. Moore before the special election. And the president did not explicitly urge voters to cast a ballot for Mr. Moore.
Mr. Trump's most recent campaigning in Alabama, where he won 62 percent of the presidential vote last fall, fell surprisingly flat. In September, Alabama voters rejected Mr. Trump's pleas and chose Mr. Moore over Senator Luther Strange, the White House's preferred candidate, in the Republican primary.
Yet on Tuesday, Mr. Trump's bottom-line position seemed to align with many of Alabama's most influential Republicans. Gov. Kay Ivey has said that she both believes Mr. Moore's accusers and that she intends to vote for him. And last week, the Alabama Republican Party's steering committee opted to reaffirm the party's support for Mr. Moore's nomination.
Just one statewide Republican organization — the Young Republican Federation of Alabama — has publicly withdrawn its support for Mr. Moore, its steering committee saying in a resolution over the weekend that its "duty is not to the individual candidates but to the longstanding growth and sustainability of the Republican Party." Senator Richard C. Shelby, the state's ranking lawmaker, said he would not cast his ballot for Mr. Moore, who was, in effect, twice removed from the Alabama Supreme Court for defiance of federal judges.
In Alabama, Mr. Moore has spent decades amassing a pugnacious and unapologetically controversial record — his views on same-sex marriage and Islam, for instance, are regularly condemned as bigoted and intolerant — that is central to his appeal to many of the state's voters. Around the time that Mr. Trump addressed reporters on Tuesday in Washington, Mr. Moore's lieutenants were urging voters to look past the allegations that transformed the Senate race almost two weeks ago.
They again sought to undermine the credibility of some, but not all, of Mr. Moore's accusers. But they reserved some of their fiercest attacks for the news media and Republican officials, like Mr. McConnell.
"If you can be tricked in two weeks about Judge Roy Moore, then they win," said Dean Young, a close adviser to Mr. Moore and a failed candidate for Congress.
Mr. Young refused to take questions during his appearance outside the State Capitol in Montgomery. Instead, he vowed that the campaign would stop responding to questions about the allegations against Mr. Moore, and he depicted Mr. Jones as a liberal extremist.
And he appealed to Mr. Trump's popularity.
"We want to send Judge Moore to Washington because Judge Moore will help President Trump get done what needs to get done," Mr. Young said. "And all this 'Jerry Springer' stuff is over."

Happy Independence Day! On July 4th, 1776, the Declaration of Independence was adopted by the Continental Congress. The opening lines of this document are among the most famous in the English language. Less well known is the list of grievances that form the basis for the document's declaration of independence from the British crown.
Reading through the 28 statements of grievance put forward in the Declaration today, one cannot help but be struck by how many of them apply to our contemporary political situation, in the struggle between the people of the United States and the two narrow party factions that monopolize political power at all levels of government. In the spirit of Independence, let's consider a few of these parallels and let the facts be submitted to a candid world.
The history of the present party system is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations.
The ruling factions have refused their assent to laws, the most wholesome and necessary to the public good.
They have prevented the passage of laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation until their assent should be obtained, and when so suspended they have utterly neglected to attend to them.
They have called together legislative bodies at places and times unusual and uncomfortable, for the sole purpose of fatiguing the people into compliance with their measures.
They have called for, and succeeded in achieving, the dissolution of public assemblies and free associations of citizens who oppose their invasions on the rights of the people.
They have endeavored to prevent the population of these states, for that purpose obstructing the laws for the naturalization of foreigners, and refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither.
They have obstructed the administration of justice by refusing to approve judges to sit on the judicial bench.
They have erected a multitude of new executive offices, and sent hither swarms of officers to harass the people and eat out their substance.
They have affected to render the military independent of and superior to the civil power.
They have supported the stationing of large numbers of armed government agents among us, and protect them by a mock trial from punishment for any murders which they should commit on the inhabitants of these states.
They have manipulated the means of trade with all parts of the world.
They have abolished our most invaluable laws and altered fundamentally the form of our government.
They have abdicated government here by waging war against us.
They are at this time in full support of transporting large armies of domestic and foreign soldiers to complete the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of cruelty and perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy of a civilized nation.
They have excited domestic dissensions, and through their acts and policies have invited attacks on our soil from abroad.
In every stage of these oppressions, the people have petitioned for redress in the most humble terms. Repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injury.
With that, we have identified fifteen parallels between the grievances listed in the Declaration of Independence and our political situation today. As for the rest, the reader can decide if they are still applicable today. Beyond that, we have yet to state any of the standing grievances against the present party system that are not encompassed by those in the Declaration.
When is enough, enough?
