TWO Brits were last night arrested after a car mounted the pavement and smashed into pedestrians, with terrifying footage capturing the screams of horrified witnesses following Marbella's annual Champagne party.
A seven-week-old baby was among the six injured in the rampage, which was allegedly fuelled by alcohol, on the Costa del Sol resort's Golden Mile.
Traumatised witnesses described how they feared "they would die" when a crazed Audi driver ploughed into revellers at kick-out time outside Towie haunt the Ocean Club.
Injuries included broken legs and a fractured pelvis while one person is undergoing tests after being knocked unconscious.
Two British men, in their 20s, have since been arrested with the Interior Ministry saying both showed signs of having been drinking alcohol.
The pair are expected to be hauled before a judge on Tuesday.
Video of the crash, filmed from a nearby apartment block above the scene, captures tyres of the car squealing as it races around the street, with a shuddering smash heard before someone can be heard screaming "somebody help me".
Others can be seen appearing to rush over to those injured in the horror, with one witness telling The Sun how she was left fearing for her life, saying: "I was lying on the ground. I thought I was going to die.
"I saw two people get hit and heard at least another six hit. It came out of nowhere."
Local media Sevilla has since reported the group involved had been fighting at Ocean Club before being asked to leave, with the argument spilling out onto the streets.
Witnesses told police the Audi SQ7 deliberately drove at high speed at pedestrians in an area off-limits to cars which runs from a roundabout down to steps overlooking the Mediterranean and the entrance to the Ocean Club.
The vehicle was left a write-off after a high-speed police chase which ended with the black Audi invading the wrong carriageway on the nearby Golden Mile dual-carriageway running between Marbella and Puerto Banus before hitting several cars including one in which three people including a young baby were injured.
A witness said she saw at least six hit by the speeding vehicle.
Another witness, who had been at the Ocean Club all day, told The Sun: "I thought it was a terrorist attack at first.
"We thought someone would get out and start shooting people."
The young Brit, who did not wish to be named, said the car arrived shortly after an altercation between two groups of young men.
He added: "It drove along the pavement towards us, slowly at first.
"Then some big muscly blokes jumped in and it sped up, going round in circles hitting people.
"The tyres were squealing – it was going on for about five minutes. I had to jump over a wall to stop him hitting me.
"People were jumping in bushes and getting under cars."

The traumatised witness, a 22-year-old Brit, added: "I was on the phone to my mum, dad and boyfriend because I thought I was going to die."
A well-informed police source allayed fears of terrorism, saying: "A man of British origin believed to have been driving under the influence of alcohol has been arrested.
"There is no evidence this was in any way terrorism-related.
"Three pedestrians were injured at the scene of the original incident.
"There were casualties at the car crash scene as well, including a young baby, but none are believed to be serious."
Cops closed off part of nearby Marbella's Golden Mile where the hit-and-run driver crashed near a five-star hotel a couple of miles from the Ocean Club after fleeing the scene.
A nearby worker said: "I've heard the man they've arrested got into a row over a girl and may have driven deliberately at the pedestrians that were injured."
Local social media sites carried pictures of an injured man in shorts lying on the ground, with one social media user commenting: "A car has just sped along the seafront by the Ocean Club in Puerto Banus and has run over a lot of people.
"The car has fled the scene."
The Ocean Club is a favourite of Brit celebs including Katie Price, footballer Aaron Lennon, Calum Best and the Towie cast including Mario Falcone, Mark Wright and Sam Faiers.
A spokesman for the Ocean Club, where most revellers are Brits, said they were not aware of the incident and it hadn't happened inside the club.
The club was today celebrating its annual Champagne party, at which revellers often end up spraying each other with expensive bottles of bubbly.
The event normally attracts celebs and top footballers.
The Interior Ministry says the driver also was seriously injured when the car eventually crashed.
The Civil Guard says officers tried to stop the car at a motorway check Sunday evening when it sped off into the town, where it rammed into a crowded pedestrian avenue.
The Interior Ministry says that three people were injured on the street and that the driver and four others were hurt in a multiple car accident caused by the fleeing car.
The ministry says police arrested two passengers in the car.

Monday evening July 1
Opening response
Favor us, Lord, and deliver us.
Lord, come quickly and help us.
Prayer of thanksgiving
Blessed are you, Lord God, creator of day and night:
to you be praise and glory forever.
As darkness falls you renew your promise
to reveal among us the light of your presence.
By the light of Christ, your living Word,
dispel the darkness of our hearts
that we may walk as children of light
and sing your praise throughout the world.
Blessed be God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Blessed be God forever.
That this evening may be holy, good and peaceful,
let us pray with one heart and mind.
Silence is kept.
As our evening prayer rises before you, O God,
so may your mercy come down upon us
to cleanse our hearts
and set us free to sing your praise
now and forever.
Rejoice, the Lord is King!
Charles Wesley
Rejoice, the Lord is King!
Your Lord and King adore,
Mortals, give thanks, and sing,
And triumph evermore;
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice,
Rejoice, again, I say, rejoice.
Jesus the Savior reigns,
The God of truth and love,
When he had purged our stains,
He took his seat above:
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice,
Rejoice, again, I say, rejoice.
His kingdom cannot fail,
He rules over earth and heaven;
The keys of death and hell
Are to our Jesus given:
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice,
Rejoice, again, I say, rejoice.
He sits at God's right hand,
Till all his foes submit,
And bow to his command,
And fall beneath his feet.

Rejoice, again, I say, rejoice.
He all his foes shall quell,
Shall all our sins destroy,
And every bosom swell
With pure seraphic joy;

Rejoice in glorious hope,
Jesus the judge shall come;
And take his servants up
To their eternal home:
We soon shall hear the archangel's voice,
The trump of God shall sound, Rejoice.
Confession of sin
Let us confess our sins to God.
A time of silence and self-examination may be kept.
My God, for love of you
I desire to hate and forsake all sins
by which I have ever displeased you;
and I resolve by the help of your grace
to commit them no more;
and to avoid all opportunities of sin.
Help me to do this,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
The Lord enrich us with his grace,
and nourish us with his blessing;
the Lord defend us in trouble and keep us from all evil;
the Lord accept our prayers,
and absolve us from our offenses,
for the sake of Jesus Christ, our Savior.
The Word of God
Psalm 47
Sing praises to God! Sing praises!
Clap your hands, all you people!
Shout joyfully to God with a joyous shout!
Because the Lord Most High is awesome,
he is the great king of the whole world.
He subdues the nations under us,
subdues all people beneath our feet.
He chooses our inheritance for us:
the heights of Jacob, which he loves.
God has gone up with a joyous shout—
the Lord with the blast of the ram's horn.
Sing praises to God! Sing praises!
Sing praises to our king! Sing praises
because God is king of the whole world!
Sing praises with a song of instruction!
God is king over the nations.
God sits on his holy throne.
The leaders of all people are gathered
with the people of Abraham's God
because the earth's guardians belong to God;
God is exalted beyond all.
Glory to the Father and to the Son
and to the Holy Spirit;
as it was in the beginning is now
and will be forever. Amen.
Sing praises to God! Sing praises!
Psalm prayer
As Christ was raised by your glory, O Father,
so may we be raised to new life
and rejoice to be called your children,
both now and forever.
Psalm 49
Happy are those who trust in the Lord.
Listen to this, all you people!
Listen closely, all you citizens of the world—
people of every kind,
rich and poor alike!
My mouth speaks wisdom;
my heart's meditation is full of insight.
I will pay close attention to a proverb;
I will explain my riddle on the lyre.
Why should I be afraid in times of trouble,
when the wrongdoing of my bullies engulfs me—
those people who trust in their fortunes
and boast of their fantastic wealth?
Wealth? It can't save a single person!
It can't pay a life's ransom-price to God.
The price to save someone's life is too high—
wealth will never be enough—
no one can live forever
without experiencing the pit.
Everyone knows that the wise die too,
just like foolish and stupid people do,
all of them leaving their fortunes to others.
Their graves are their eternal homes,
the place they live for all generations,
even if they had counties named after them!
People won't live any longer because of wealth;
they're just like the animals that pass away.
That's how it goes for those who are foolish,
as well as for those who follow their lead, pleased with their talk.
Like sheep, they're headed straight for the grave.
Death will be their shepherd—
but those who do right in their hearts will rule over them come morning!—
their forms wasting away in the grave
rather than having some dignified residence.
But God will save my life from the power of the grave,
because he will take me.
Don't be overly impressed when someone becomes rich,
their house swelling to fantastic proportions,
because when they die, they won't take any of it with them.
Their fantastic things won't accompany them down under.
Though they consider themselves blessed during their lives,
and even thank you when you deal well with them,
they too will join the ancestors who've gone ahead;
they too will never see the light again.
Wealthy people? They just don't understand;
they're just like the animals
that pass away.
Glory to the Father and to the Son
and to the Holy Spirit;
as it was in the beginning is now
and will be forever. Amen.
Happy are those who trust in the Lord.
Psalm prayer
Save us from envy, God our Redeemer,
and deliver us from the chains of wealth,
that, ransomed through your Son,
we may inherit the crown of everlasting life;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Old Testament reading
Judges 2
The Lord's messenger came up from Gilgal to Bochim and said, "I brought you up from Egypt and led you into the land that I had promised to your ancestors. I said, 'I will never break my covenant with you, and you are not to make a covenant with those who live in this land. You should break down their altars.' But you didn't obey me. What have you done? So now I tell you, I won't drive them out before you, but they'll be a problem for you, and their gods will be a trap for you." When the Lord's messenger spoke these words to all the Israelites, they raised their voices and cried out loud. So they named that place Bochim, and they offered a sacrifice to the Lord there.
When Joshua dismissed the people, the Israelites each went to settle on their own family property in order to take possession of the land. The people served the Lord throughout the rest of Joshua's life and throughout the next generation of elders who outlived him, those who had seen all the great things that the Lord had done for Israel. Joshua, Nun's son and the Lord's servant, died when he was 110 years old. They buried him within the boundaries of his family property in Timnath-heres in the highlands of Ephraim north of Mount Gaash. When that whole generation had passed away, another generation came after them who didn't know the Lord or the things that he had done for Israel.
Then the Israelites did things that the Lord saw as evil: They served the Baals; and they went away from the Lord, their ancestors' God, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt. They went after other gods from among the surrounding peoples, they worshipped them, and they angered the Lord. They went away from the Lord and served Baal and the Astartes. So the Lord became angry with Israel, and he handed them over to raiders who plundered them. He let them be defeated by their enemies around them, so that they were no longer able to stand up to them. Whenever the Israelites marched out, the Lord's power worked against them, just as the Lord had warned them. And they were very distressed.
Then the Lord raised up leaders to rescue them from the power of these raiders. But they wouldn't even obey their own leaders because they were unfaithful, following other gods and worshipping them. They quickly deviated from the way of their ancestors, who had obeyed the Lord's commands, and didn't follow their example.
The Lord was moved by Israel's groaning under those who oppressed and crushed them. So the Lord would raise up leaders for them, and the Lord would be with the leader, and he would rescue Israel from the power of their enemies as long as that leader lived.
But then when the leader died, they would once again act in ways that weren't as good as their ancestors', going after other gods, to serve them and to worship them. They wouldn't drop their bad practices or hardheaded ways. So the Lord became angry with Israel and said, "Because this nation has violated my covenant that I required of their ancestors and hasn't obeyed me, I in turn will no longer drive out before them any of the nations that Joshua left when he died." As a test for Israel, to see whether they would carefully walk in the Lord's ways just as their ancestors had done, the Lord left these nations instead of driving them out immediately or handing them over to Joshua.
Silence may be kept.
New Testament reading
Luke 13:1-9
Some who were present on that occasion told Jesus about the Galileans whom Pilate had killed while they were offering sacrifices. He replied, "Do you think the suffering of these Galileans proves that they were more sinful than all the other Galileans? No, I tell you, but unless you change your hearts and lives, you will die just as they did. What about those eighteen people who were killed when the tower of Siloam fell on them? Do you think that they were more guilty of wrongdoing than everyone else who lives in Jerusalem? No, I tell you, but unless you change your hearts and lives, you will die just as they did."
Jesus told this parable: "A man owned a fig tree planted in his vineyard. He came looking for fruit on it and found none. He said to his gardener, 'Look, I've come looking for fruit on this fig tree for the past three years, and I've never found any. Cut it down! Why should it continue depleting the soil's nutrients?' The gardener responded, 'Lord, give it one more year, and I will dig around it and give it fertilizer. Maybe it will produce fruit next year; if not, then you can cut it down.'"
Silence may be kept.
Gospel canticle
The Magnificat (The Song of Mary)
God, you have done great things and holy is your name.
With all my heart I glorify the Lord!
In the depths of who I am I rejoice in God my savior.
He has looked with favor on the low status of his servant.
Look! From now on, everyone will consider me highly favored
because the mighty one has done great things for me.
Holy is his name.
He shows mercy to everyone,
from one generation to the next,
who honors him as God.
He has shown strength with his arm.
He has scattered those with arrogant thoughts and proud inclinations.
He has pulled the powerful down from their thrones
and lifted up the lowly.
He has filled the hungry with good things
and sent the rich away empty-handed.
He has come to the aid of his servant Israel,
remembering his mercy,
just as he promised to our ancestors,
to Abraham and to Abraham's descendants forever.
Luke 1:46-55
Glory to the Father and to the Son
and to the Holy Spirit;
as it was in the beginning is now
and will be forever. Amen.
God, you have done great things and holy is your name.
Brief silence.
The Apostle's Creed
Let us unite in this historic confession of the Christian faith:
I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
he descended to the dead.
On the third day he rose again;
he ascended into heaven,
is seated at the right hand of the Father,
and will come again to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting. Amen.

Are you a fan of corn? What about corn on a cob? As summer enters its final leg, corn on a cob becomes part of our daily meals. We can simple boil it or throw it on the grill at home or over coals at the campsite. Whatever the situation, corn is always delicious and can make it even more flavourful with a nice spread.
Delicious spread for corn
Try the following herb butter spread with olive oil to top the corn on the cob. Make a few batches at a time and store in the refrigerator for an easy way to jazz up sweet corn all summer long. Use it cold or let it come to room temperature before serving.
All you need is:
- 1 tablespoon butter, at room temperature
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh herbs, such as basil, parsley or chives
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
Mash butter in a small bowl with the back of a spoon until soft and creamy. Stir in oil until combined. Mix in herbs, salt and pepper. Et voilà! You are ready to enjoy delicious corn on a cob!

After capturing their sixth consecutive title in the Alcan Dragon Boat Festivals high school category, coach Dr. Hugh Fisher is still at a loss to explain how the Laoyam Eagles do it every year.
"I cant account for why they do so well. You look at some crews and you can see that they can do better because they have poor technique or something like that, but when you get into the competitive class they are all using good technique, the racers are good," said Fisher.
"(In the competitive class) theyre probably giving up 30 or 40 pounds per paddler compared to other crews. Maybe the lighter boats move better, but theyre not as strong either, so I dont know."
Last year the Eagles barely won the high school title, edging out the Eric Hamber Secondary School in Vancouver.
"That was a rebuilding year for us, and they won by inches. This year they won convincingly again," said Fisher. "Last year we were mostly Grade 9s, and this year we were mostly Grade 10s. There were some older kids, but mostly Grade 10s, and they were up against Grade 12s from other schools.
"This was the strongest team Ive seen yet. My feeling is that with this result the Eagles should probably be going to the club world championships, which are in Canada next year. Its an open competition, but I think they would do quite well with another year under their belts."
The Eagles also competed in the Open events, and were seeded in the Competitive A Division after their first race against the top mixed adult teams. They missed the finals, but went on to win the consolation final.
"Last year the team won the Recreational A final, so this was even a step up from that," said Fisher.
The Falcons, the development team for the Eagles, also had a breakthrough year. They won their first race and were strong enough in subsequent races to make it to the finals, where they unfortunately were placed in the lane next to the Eagles. The Eagles took off quickly, leaving the Falcons in their wake.
"It was unfortunate, the Eagles took off so fast that in no time at all the Falcons were floundering around in the wash from the Eagles boat," said Fisher.
The Falcons were last in that heat, but it was still an improvement over 2004 when they won the consolation round.
Other Pemberton teams and paddlers had success this year. Jeanette Helmer raced with the False Creek Masters team, which won the womens category.
The Bald Eagles, a mixed team, finished second overall in the regatta by a 50th of a second. "We were just a thumb and forefinger behind, thats how close we were," said Fisher, who rowed with that team.
The Pemberton Spirit, a womens team, won the B Division Open category, improving on last years results as well.
Fisher also raced on a team called Dangerous Cliffs, named after a friend who passed away this year. That team finished second to the strong False Creek squad in the mens race.
"Overall, I think its the best results weve ever had," said Fisher. "People look at our teams and cant believe how well we do.
"People say you must have a fantastic course and great equipment and train all the time, and we say, no, we have One Mile Lake, which is a little puddle, we train twice a week for the last 10 weeks.
"I really dont know what it is. Ive been with the (Eagles) a week out and I think theyre not training well, not where they should be maybe, and then they come through. Every time."

How to clean ceramic tiles
1. Never use a sponge mop
Ceramic tiles are usually relatively easy to keep clean, unless you use a sponge mop, that is. The trouble with these is that they will push dirt and grime into grout, which can be extremely tricky to get out again.
2. How to clean grout
When grout does start to look a bit grimy, there's one thing that is guaranteed to get it sparkling again: bleach.
It may not be natural, but it definitely works. Dilute your bleach down with equal parts water, then dip a toothbrush into the solution. Scrub into the grout, leave for an hour, then wipe away with a clean, damp cloth.
3. Purchase a universal cleaner
No one wants their cupboards cluttered with tens of cleaning products. Our favourite universal cleaner, Flash, not only smells divine, but will get your floors sparkling.
It's the perfect cleaner for ceramic, lino and vinyl flooring.
How to clean linoleum flooring
4. Sweep, sweep, sweep
Unless your linoleum has been stuck down with the strongest glue known to man, vacuuming is ill-advised. Sweeping is preferable, and an easy way of keeping floors clean if you do it often.
A quick, 60-second sweep after cooking will prevent dropped crumbs being squished into the flooring.
5. Spot clean
Where linoleum is concerned, spot cleaning is the best option. Much like laminate flooring, which we'll discuss later, keeping the floor as dry as possible is paramount to avoid water damage.
Spot clean spills using a microfiber cloth slightly dampened in hot, soapy water.
Carpet-cleaning tips
6. Pick up pet hair from carpets
If only our fluffy best friends didn't leave hair everywhere! Remove all trace of animals easily by using a rubber glove to lift pet hair.
Pop the glove on, and wipe your hand over hair-covered areas to lift.
7. Use entrance mats wherever possible & remove shoes
It sounds obvious, but preventing stains on carpets is much, much easier than trying to scrub them clean. Encourage the rest of your household to use entrance mats as a minimum, and remove shoes whenever possible.
8. Soda water & salt remove stains
To remove fresh stains, soda water and salt can be really useful.
For liquid stains like coffee, blot the liquid with kitchen towel, then soak a clean cloth in soda and apply to the stained area. Rinse the cloth and reapply as necessary.
If the stain persists, grab some salt, and sprinkle over the stain. Leave it to sit for 10 minutes before vacuuming away.
9. Use castor cups to protect carpets
Castor cups are becoming increasingly common, and it's no wonder. We pay so much for our lovely carpets, it seems such a shame to ruin them with heavy chair legs.
Invest in some almost invisible, plastic castor cups and you'll never have to bother trying to get indents out of your carpets again.
10. Baking soda removes carpet stains
Expert Home Tips love baking soda. Here's another reason why - baking soda is great at removing carpet stains.
Sprinkle the powder liberally over the area, leave overnight, then vacuum clean. It really doesn't get easier than this!
How to clean wood floors
11. Use neutral floor cleaners on waxed wooden floors
Although they may look hard-wearing, natural wood floors must be treated gently. We advise only using shop-bought products specifically designed for cleaning wood flooring. These will protect, rather than damage wax coatings.
12. Use freshly-brewed tea to clean natural wood floors
Neglect natural wood flooring, and it can soon lose it sparkle. A great way to revive it is using freshly brewed tea. Dip a clean, microfiber cloth into the liquid, wring out well until just damp, then wipe over floors.
Dip a clean, microfiber cloth into the liquid, wring out well until just damp, then wipe over floors.
13. Avoid dragging furniture
If you're lucky enough to have solid wood furniture as well as a solid floor, be sure to take care when moving it. Heavy legs can easily scratch the surface more easily than you'd imagine, and the damage is hard to repair when done.
14. Avoid using acidic solutions on wood floors
Natural wood is a truly beautiful thing. If you want to keep it that way, stay away from acidic solutions such as vinegar. Over time, these may cause your wooden floors to become dull and faded.
How to clean laminate floors
15. Mop up spillages ASAP
The most important thing to remember when caring for laminate flooring is to never allow them to get too wet. Spillages should be mopped up ASAP to avoid having to soak the area. Moisture can leak underneath the floorboards and damage laminate.
16. Spot clean laminate flooring
For everyday floor cleaning, there's no need to wet the entire area - a better way to clean laminate flooring is to spot clean. This can be done with a microfiber cloth, lightly dampened with clean, soapy water. This process will again protect laminate flooring from becoming damp underneath.
17. The importance of dry mopping
When your laminate floors do start to look a little worse for wear, you can go ahead and mop with a slightly dampened microfiber mop. Once clean, follow-up with another mopping, this time with a dry microfiber mop head.
Once clean, follow-up with another mopping, this time with a dry microfiber mop head to keep moisture to a minimum.
18. Remove scuffs with this amazing cleaning tip
Floor scuffs? A really nifty way to remove these is by scrubbing with a tennis ball. The tight fibres of the ball will rub off marks from the soles of shoes easily.
How to clean natural stone floors
19. Use a pH neutral product on natural stone floors
Preserving the natural beauty of stone flooring is easy, providing you don't use harsh products.
Some chemicals can alter the appearance of stone, so we advise choosing a cleaning product that's pH neutral.
20. Add a stain prevention layer to your stone floor
To keep your stone floor clean for longer, consider applying a stain prevention layer once clean.
Stains must be completely dry before you attempt this. For easy application, we recommend applying the solution with a long-handled foam roller. Continue to roll over the entire area for 10-15 minutes to ensure the solution is fully absorbed.
Wipe over with a rag to remove excess liquid and you're done!
Vinyl floor cleaning tips
Remove scuffs with a rubber
This is one of those odd but awesome tips, and we can't get enough of it! Next time you see a scuff on your vinyl floor, don't panic - you can rub the mark right off using a rubber.
21. Make sure you pick the right product when cleaning vinyl floors
There are two types of vinyl flooring - waxed and unwaxed. It's important to know which one you have before cleaning your floor, as the wrong product could damage the surface.
If you're unsure, check with the manufacturer.
22. Remove stains using bleach
Vinyl flooring is one of the most hard-wearing flooring choices around. If you have a seriously bad stain that nothing will budge, bleach could be the answer.
Alternating between soaking the stain in a diluted bleach solution, then scrubbing and so-forth should eventually return the vinyl to its former glory.
Cork floor cleaning tips
23. Use a natural DIY solution to clean cork floors
Cork floors are few and far between. If you're lucky enough to have one, make sure you look after it by lovingly making your own solution to clean it with.
Mix 1/4 cup vinegar into a bucket and add a drop of dish soap. Use a soft, sponge mop to wipe down the floor, then wipe with a microfiber cloth.
Wow! Those cleaning tips are going to get my floors cleaner than ever. Do you have any of your own?

FLNC - Variant R2340Q
Painting allows me to reflect and heal. My son, Wesley was born with a congenital heart defect, and the past two years have been spent fighting for his life—first with a succession of four open heart surgeries and finally with a heart transplant in May 2015.
At the root of Wesley's illness was a single genetic irregularity—a variation in the gene FLNC resulting in a cardiac myopathy condition that caused thickening of the heart walls and defective formation of the coronary artery and aortic arch.
This body of work takes its name from this genetic variation, FLNC – Variant R2340Q, and represents Wesley's journey in a series of seven pieces. The paintings that form the middle movement of the series were painted over older works; the layers were carved and stripped away through a variety of methods—a manifestation of the wrenching, pendulous swing between hope and despair. In contrast, the paintings that begin and end the series are intentionally smooth in texture, depicting times when it was easier to regulate my emotions, despite the intensity with which I felt them.
These paintings represent both my darkest times and moments when I felt profound connection with the universe. While contemplating these abstract visions, I invite the viewer to meditate on these questions: How do we maintain hope in the face of fragility and death? How can we turn trauma into a conduit for art, expression, and identity? How can something so small, the slightest variation, change our world completely?
Nature is my sanctuary. The natural world and all its creatures have come to me in my dreams and in waking for as long as I can remember. I currently reside on a tidal pond, next to a creek that bends and twists through marsh banks into the brush, a short distance from the woods and ocean. Migratory birds delight in the crabapple tree, sea roses, lavender, day lilies and shasta daisies. Turns dive at high tide, great blue herons skulk at low tide, deer wander out in to the long marsh grass, coyotes prowl, bears lumber across the muddy pond bottom, stoats race about the marshy banks and red wing black birds perch on the cattails and reeds. The paintings in this series are transformations of the natural forms I encounter in my habitat into abstract visions. In this series as I ask the viewer to consider a time when humans were more part of the natural world? How does nature nourish one's mind, body and soul? How does nature shape one's aesthetic?

Hello, this is my first message so hope it all goes well.
Before I retired I was a semi-profesional freelance photograher.
In those days it was film only and I acumulated quite a Large stock.
To ensure these photo's did not deteriorate even though they were Kodachrome
I started to digitize them with a scanner, a cannon 8800f in any spare time I had.
lately the scanner has been playing up when in preview it leaves black bars on
the edges of the scanned pic's. I have noticed that this problem occurs more often
with long use time or when the ambient temp is high.
Has anyone else had this problem with their scanner and did they find a cure?
Hi vettehead,
Based on your discussion the scanning element is starting to fail. This model printer was retired and spare parts or service in no longer available.

text: Members of the Rapid Action Battalion guard a street during an operation in Dhaka in January [File: AP] Bangladesh's security forces have killed more than 30 alleged drug dealers in gun battles over the past week with right activists warning a campaign of extrajudicial killings may be under way. The suspects were killed across the country under similar circumstances since the nationwide crackdown on the narcotics trade was launched in early May, Al Jazeera discovered from police reports. In most cases, local police and members of the elite Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) force acted on tip-offs, raided houses where alleged drug traffickers operated, and after coming under fire engaged in deadly "shootouts". Some relatives of the deceased, however, say their family members were picked up by police and later shot dead. Criticising the deaths, Bangladeshi human rights activist Sultana Kamal said at a press conference on Monday that arrests should be made and suspects tried before a court, but that is not happening. "People do not want to witness such killings. It is a violation of law to use the firearms, bought by the people's money, in extrajudicial killings. What is the country's judicial system for, if the law enforcers themselves try to serve justice?" said Kamal. {articleGUID} War on drugs The recent spree of "shootouts" started after Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina earlier this month asked RAB to tackle the drug problem. According to the Department of Narcotics Control of Bangladesh, there are at least seven million drug addicts, of which five million are hooked on methamphetamine. On May 14, RAB Director-General Benazir Ahmed told a press conference a "stronger stance" would be employed to prevent drug abuse. Ahmed said police cases through the courts "would be less encouraged … due to backlog. These cases normally take a lot of time to get processed". Thirty-three alleged drug dealers have now been killed in "gunfights" with security forces across the country since the operation began. RAB's mobile court also sentenced 2,471 people, of whom 347 were drug dealers and the rest drug addicts. Police said more than 500 people had been detained over the same period. Philippines model Parallels have already been drawn to the situation in the Philippines, where its President Rodrigo Duterte declared a war on drugs, with his security forces killing thousands of drug dealers. Human rights activist Nur Khan Liton told Al Jazeera "this killing spree" in Bangladesh is similar to what is happening in the Philippines. "The law enforcers think of solving the drug problem through instilling fear. This won't work," said Liton. He urged the government to properly investigate each death so "under no circumstances, such extrajudicial killings are accepted". Minister of Home Affairs Asaduzzaman Khan defended the anti-narcotics drive on Monday, saying Hasina instructed his ministry to take a "zero tolerance" policy against the drug trade to stop it "at any cost".

It has been almost a year since the first plastic straw ban was enacted in Seattle, July 2018, since then the movement has snowballed and has become what was dubbed by the website Eater as "the Biggest Trend of 2018."
U.S. Straw Bans
Per QSR Magazine, millennials are currently the largest U.S. generation, and 72% of millennials say they spend more money on brands that demonstrate social and environmental stewardship. Consumer research studies show that "millennials rank the use of environmentally friendly packaging as the most important thing a brand can do to demonstrate commitment to sustainability—ranking even higher than the use of renewable energy to manufacture and transport products." (Source: https://www.qsrmagazine.com/outside-insights/how-serve-packaging-s-natural-fit-millennials)
And let's not forget, ditching the straw will save you money! One less SKU to stock and a more streamlined process.
Here at LidWorks, we have been collecting data from consumers and operators to develop a range of the best Strawless Lid Solutions available and we would love to share them with you. In fact, we just completed a Consumer Field Study to find out which style StrawLess Lid Solution your customers will like best. Interested in learning more? Contact LidWorks at email@example.com or 888.752.5579. If you are looking to "Up Your Lid Game," call the experts at LidWorks!
You are probably wondering...Is a Strawless Lid the "correct choice" for your company right now?
Here is the long and short answer. Yes. It is.
Why? It's simple, everyone benefits. Let's explore...
For starters, it's smart business. Getting ahead of the curve will build goodwill for your company. As plastic bans continue to grow, it is likely that the choice to eliminate straws will be made for you. Making the switch now will allow you to take control and show current and potential customers that you are serious about helping the environment. This will build brand loyalty and repeat customers. Not to mention that it's a cost saver. Ditch the straws and keep the savings. While you're at it, you will streamline your process, reduce SKU's and increase efficiency.
Further, switching to a Strawless Lid is not only a wise business choice, it's also the ethical thing to do. Straws are detrimental to the environment, our marine life and our health. Let's break down why that is.
Due to the relatively thin material that they are made of, straws break down into microplastics quicker. Microplastics are any plastic particle that has a diameter of less than 5mm and are most commonly found on beaches and in deep waters. These tiny bits of plastic are often mistaken for food by marine life and in turn, ingested. This blocks the animal's digestive system and can have devastating results. Some of the plastics are so small that they even get embedded in the animal's flesh. These microplastics are then passed down through the food chain and make their way to humans through ingestion.
So why don't we just increase our recycling efforts instead? Well, it's not that simple. Even if all of us started recycling all of our straws, a noble but unrealistic goal, most facilities can't process them due to their size and light weight. Straws fall through the cracks on the conveyor belt mixing with other materials ending up in a landfill.
So that's the quick info on what all this Strawless Lid talk is about. At the end of the day, a Strawless Lid just makes good business and ethical sense. It's a "win-win" solution for companies like yours. LidWorks is excited to be a part of this evolving landscape and to share our StrawLess Lid Solutions with you. Our goal is to help our environment flourish and your business grow. For more information contact LidWorks Sales at firstname.lastname@example.com or 888.752.5579. Remember..."Up Your Lid Game".

Today we have left San Francisco! After watching our buddy run the marathon (in under 4 hours!) we had brunch and then parted ways. Originally, the plan was to walk over the Bay Bridge and start hitching from there, however you can't walk over the bridge. So at quickly made our plans change.
We finally found the only way to get out of the city heading East and not South was to take a bus. So, we decided to head towards Sacramento. For extra few bucks, we found we could get a bus to Reno, NV -- so we jumped on that. It will be nearly halfway to Salt lake City for us, so are pretty happy about that. Tomorrow we will begin the hitch to SLC, and OR starts in a few days!
Happy to be traveling again, and will be easing into the hiking thing ;)

The Philippines' case study underscores the success of the national elimination strategy, which includes a provincial-level malaria-free certification effort. By 2013, one third of the provinces in the Philippines achieved malaria elimination, and the entire country aims to become malaria free by 2020. The case study reviews the key interventions that led to success, such as strong surveillance, prompt treatment of malaria cases, and targeted vector control.

The U.S. military has been tangling for years with environmentalists and Gulf War I veterans over depleted uranium (DU). The Pentagon uses the stuff in anti-tank warheads, because it's denser than lead. But many groups have claimed that DU is behind a range of illnesses, including the mysterious "Gulf War Syndrome." The Defense Department has consistently denied this.Intrepid Defense Tech reader Darius has dug up the Army's 1981 patent application for what appears to be the anti-armor munitions. And it may give some ammunition (ouch!) to those opposed to DU. According to the application, the warhead's "lethal fragments may be made of... chemically toxic debris."

Kicks Not Flicks - Football Say No To Knives
Football Teams from across London are coming together on Saturday 28th July to show their support to #StopKnifeCrime and to raise funds for the Ben Kinsella Trust. The event takes place in the Arsenal Hub starting at 2.30 pm with the presentation of prizes at 5.30 pm.
Patrick Green, CEO of the Ben Kinsella Trust said "Football is such a positive force in our society. It brings people together, breaks down barriers and improves health and well being. It is also a force in tackling social issues in society. Knife Crime is now at it worst for over a decade. Too many young people have been victims or know someone who has suffered from this hideous crime. We are really pleased to see so many teams from across London coming together to show solidarity and help our work to stop knife crime. Ben loved football. He was a massive Arsenal fan and we are so proud to be part of this great event"

Once again, I'm walking into the chilly first few days of a new year exceedingly grateful for the Cultivate What Matters team and for Powersheets. This goal setting resource has been life changing for me, someone who is a little cynical about progress and who struggles with consistency.
The 2018 Powersheets had a few new changes I really appreciated, but the thing I loved most this year within the prep work was this question: "What have you unknowingly decided that you cannot do?" as a sample response, Lara Casey talked about some of the things that had been said to her or about her that had stuck and informed the way she thought of herself. I touched on it a bit in my 2017 goal setting, but once again God brought before my eyes how much fear and shame limited my service to him and love of work. As I wrote out the things I longed to do but couldn't begin or the simple tasks I walked by every day, I identified these shame fashioned shackles:
- I'm not educated enough to write boldly about biblical truth
- I'm not disciplined enough to establish and implement routines
- This stage of life with young children means that I can't do _____.
- I don't have what I need (personality type, resources, help, or experience) to accomplish what I want or feel called to do
- My perspective cannot be trusted because I am overly emotional and blow things out of proportion
- I am "too much" and bothersome. What I think of as "pursuing people" is actually just annoying them.
After writing out that list, I shared it with my sister, who quickly expressed her sorrow over learning that I thought of myself that way, and retorted that she didn't believe a single one of them. There's a certain power in speaking our shame. When we say outloud what our hearts have so subtly embraced, its easier for us to identify them as the ridiculous lies that they are, or to have someone help us to see with clear vision.
God offered Adam and Eve clothing from an animal who died because of their trespass so that they did not have to cover themselves when they realized they were naked, and he offers us robes of righteousness bought with the precious blood of his son so we don't have to live with heads hung low and shrinking back in fear because of disqualifying thoughts.
What crushes those shameful thoughts is not positive thinking about myself and my abilities, but confronting those lies with the truth of God's word because of what Christ has done. He offers me a new identity (2 Corinthians 5:17), meets my weakness with his strength and uses it to display his power (2 Corinthians 12:9), supplies all that I need to live a godly life (2 Peter 1:3), and is able to make all grace abound to me so that I am sufficiently equipped for every good work he has prepared for me (2 Corinthians 9:8; Ephesians 2:10). The Holy Spirit faithfully brought to mind these verses as I thought about how my life and days would be different if I lived out of the reality of what scripture says about who I am instead of the lies that shame whispers to me. I liked what I imagined: a life of productivity, characterized by delight in my work, selfless love and pursuit of others, more writing, less burdening of my husband, a more orderly home ready to receive the guests I long to welcome, and a sense of empowerment guiding courageous steps of faith and acts of obedience.
And there it was to claim. My word of the year: EMPOWERED. God has given me dominion over my life and home and promised to supply all that I need by the power of his spirit to carry out his purposes and do it well. He has set me free from the law of sin and death, and liberated me from a yolk of slavery and shame so that I can joyfully serve without fear. I am not empowered by my self esteem or confidence in my giftedness, but because of his faithfulness to his promises and the power of his spirit which dwells within me.
So I set my goals this year based on the things I feel held back from because of guilt or shame.
- Clear the Clutter. "Messy" and "unorganized" are not part of my personality. I am capable of keeping a clean car, and doing things "all the way, right away" and "cleaning up before moving on" as I ask my son to do. I can implement systems and daily goals that radically change the climate of our home and reduce my stress level.
- Eradicate Back Pain. I live defeated by my herniated discs rather than taking diligent and deliberate action to beat it. Daily faithfulness and a commitment to prayer could mean being pain free by 2019.
- Pursue Writing as a Career. I can produce more professional work than the occasional quick post on the blog and Instagram. I can harness, revisit, and develop ideas. I can email those of you who "subscribe" rather than simply assuming that these words are not worth reading. I can begin to faithfully collect and research for the book ideas God has painted in my heart and mind. He opened doors in 2017 to pursue publication and write for outside sources and I am excited to walk through them and devote myself to writing more intentionally.
- Sharpen My Mind. I have far more time than I realize. I can read a chapter a day, listen to podcasts more deliberately, and even take free online seminary classes to grow in my knowledge and challenge my thoughts. I am capable of finishing, not just starting books, and just because I can't enroll in seminary, doesn't mean I can't be learning and growing.
- Intentionally Love and Pursue Others. My own insecurity and assumptions should not mean that the needs of others go unmet. This year I want to intentionally meet the people God has placed in my life with self forgetfulness, unafraid of what they may think of me and more concerned for how God might use me to bless or encourage them.
- Do Things I Enjoy. My attitude towards my neglected hobbies is sad. Sewing, music, crafting, and learning new things are not a waste of time. Delighting in them brings God joy. I can make time for them without guilt.
- Invest in My Marriage. Our life, time, and relationship looks different from the marriages many of our friends. Cultivating our friendship and fortifying our covenantal relationship asks a little more of me than what comes naturally and requires some creativity. That's okay. Letting go of expectations could give way to a really fun year for us.
- Be Intentional about Will's Education and Spiritual Formation. I am not a "Pinterest Mom" or a PreSchool Teacher. So far from it. But that doesn't mean I cannot teach Will diligently. I'm excited to implement instruction of the list of things I want him to know, and to be faithful in presenting them, without concern for results, and trusting the spirit to bear fruit from these seeds sewn in faith.
Each of these goals have more specific and measurable goals and action steps beneath them that make me really look forward to this year. Mostly though, reading them and believing that accomplishing them is possible makes me really grateful for God's kindness.

Facts: Mother and Father are the never-married parents of Child. After separating several years after Child's birth, the trial court established paternity, a residential co-parenting schedule, and Father's child support obligation. The trial court also ordered Father to pay Child's private school tuition, which would be a deviation in the child support worksheets and would be in addition to the normal child support obligation. Father appealed.
On Appeal: The Court vacated the trial court's judgment.
Father argued that the trial court erred in (1) assessing private school tuition as an extraordinary educational expense without finding that private schooling was appropriate based upon the parents' financial abilities and the lifestyle of the child if the parents were living together, and (2) failing to articulate that Father had the ability to pay the full amount of tuition in addition to the child support.
Tennessee courts may order a deviation from the amount of support if the deviation complies with the requirements of the Child Support Guidelines, and the amount or method of such deviation is within the discretion of the tribunal. However, the trial court is required to state in its order the basis for the deviation and the amount the child support order would have been without the deviation. In deviating from the Guidelines, primary consideration must be given to the best interest of the child for whom support under these Guidelines is being determined.
The Child Support Guidelines also state that when making its determination regarding a request for deviation the trial court:
[S]hall consider all available income of the parents as defined by this chapter and shall make a written finding that an amount of child support other than the amount calculated under the Guidelines is reasonably necessary to provide for the needs of the minor child or children for whom support is being determined in the case immediately under consideration.
The Child Support Guidelines further provide that additional support for private school expenses should be calculated separately and should be added to the basic child support award. They also provide that these expenses should be considered on a case-by-case basis and that the courts should also consider whether the private elementary or secondary schooling is "appropriate to the parents' financial abilities and to the lifestyle of the child if the parents and the child were living together."
The Court held:
The extraordinary educational expense guideline mandates that the trial court shall, first, consider "whether the private elementary or secondary schooling 'is appropriate to the parents' financial abilities and the to the lifestyle of the child if the parents and the child were living together.'" If the court finds private schooling is appropriate, then the trial court is required to calculate the extraordinary education expenses separately and add them to the base child support award. The record before us reveals that the trial court did not make the required factual determinations that private schooling was appropriate, based upon the facts of this case. . . .
For the foregoing reasons, the upward deviation [] for school tuition is reversed and this issue is remanded to the trial court to make the requisite findings to determine, inter alia, whether private schooling for the child is appropriate based upon the facts of this case. If the court finds that private schooling is appropriate, then it shall determine who pays what portion of the private school tuition and costs attendant thereto.
The case was remanded to the trial court for the necessary factual findings.

The Proms used to seem like a two month-long gathering of all the geeks, swots and hapless toff and jerks in England (and Colonies). The festival came across as a celebration of the smug, self-satisfied bourgeoisie.
Having overcome such dispiriting prejudice, I now reserve my criticisms for the Proms programme itself. It always has gems, sometimes a multiplicity. But it's largely a succession of one tedious 19thC symphony after another, albeit played by a rich variety of leading orchestras. I tend to home in on the vocal music.
Proms 2008 highlights I'm waiting for include:
Thurs 31 July – Monteverdi's Poppaea (Danielle de Niese)
Mon 11 August – Puccini's Il Tabarro (Barbara Frittoli)
Sun 17 August – Beethoven Mass in C
Fri 22 August – Mahler 5 etc (Angela Kirschlager)
Sun 24 August – Bach's St John Passion
Sun 31 August – Verdi's Requiem
Mon 8 Sept – Mahler 6 (Chicago SO)
That's less than 10% of the total festival, but a mouth-watering prospect nevertheless.
To its credit, the BBC transmits all 76 concerts live on the indispensable Radio 3, with a few also on BBC Four TV. But, as with so many big events, the BBC's presence transforms the Proms. In applying its Middle England gloss to the events it covers, the BBC changes them. It's what makes its Wimbledon output inferior to French TV's coverage of the Paris Open. And makes Glastonbury virtually unwatchable.
Online access: many BBC radio programmes are available online, streamed. Please see the BBC channels' web sites for details. Archived radio and TV is accessible online via:

To George Washington from Robert Howe, 25 February 1783
Camp 25th Feby 1783
Dear sir
I have delayd answering your Excellency's favour in reply to mine requesting leave of absence until the matter betwixt Genl Hazen and Mr Edwards was determined, as it appeard to be your wish (to me always a Law) that I should remain 'till it was over. As motives of Business induced the request I made, the delay has not been without inconvenience to me, but my own affairs Shall always be, as indeed they always have been, subordinate to my Publick duty—I think with your Excellency that too many General Officers ought by no means to be absent at a time, & perhaps I have not been without Surprise at the number who have, & the Earnestness with which some have requested it. I am very Confident that your Excellency by kindly accommodating to their convenience & inclination has not only hurt your own feelings but that you have made the Burthen of command much heavier to your self. There are some who seem to think the Army made rather for them, than they for the Army, & Contrive to Solace themselves at Home, or in the Lap of pleasure until the Campaign cCmmences, & [then] return and assume the most Honourable & Sprightly commands if they can. I rejoice that I can not be rank'd in this number, because except the time when your Excellency honour'd me by permitting me to Attend you to Rhode Island & the few weeks you then indulged me with to Reconnoitre the States of Massachusetts & Newhamshire, I have not in the whole time I have been under your immediate Command, (now near four year) been out of the Camp, unless, for a day or so, in its Vicinity, & Even that very seldom for I can not admit the time I was [Persecuted] by Mr Walton under Colour of the State of Georgia, & the time I was miserably detain'd afterwards for want of money to pay my way out of Philadelphia as leave of absence—A [severer tour] of Duty than that never in the Course of an Eight years war having fallen to my Lot—the calls of [ ]Business and inclination are common to all, & I will be bold to say that Except your Excellency who have nobly and intirely Devoted your self to the cause of your Country & have set at [ ]the importunities of both as much, as any man in this Army was no [leave] to be given to General officers at all; I could chearfully remain forever in Camp, on which it is given will content my self with a third of the allotted time, & would [even] not ask that, when I can possibly avoid it—as part of the Business I now wish to go upon is of a pecuniary nature, & in a manner Essential to my present Existence in the Army, another Part, if I am so happy as to Effect it, may probably [fit] (after the Peace) the Colour of my Future life; [but] neither object shall influence me if this necessity of service [absolutely] requires my presence; if it does not I should be glad of permission to set out tomorrow, I should be happy Sir to Execute any Comm[and] you may have—Having postpon'd my setting out So much beyond my time, I am afraid it will be impossible for me to finish my business by the 15th of April but if it can be done, I shall certainly be punctual [to] the time, or even if it is not I will be so if your Excellency injoins it, tho it should be ever so Detrimental to my self—[I have] take this Opportunity upon my [leaving] Camp my Dear Sir to thank your Excellency (as Earnestly I do) for your many Personal attentions to me, as well as official [ illegible Complying] with the requests I have presum'd to make to you, of which be assur'd I retain a [deep] sense, & I beg of you sir to believe, for in the sincerity of my heart I [ ] it, that I have an Affectionate Attachment to you, & feel every Earnest wish for your honour, glory & happiness, as well as every [desire] to promote them. I am Dear Sir with the greatest Respect & Regard your Excellency's most obt hum. servt

As an investment property owner, it's tempting to go it alone when renting out your property to avoid extra financial outlay. You're already working hard to get the home ready to rent, paying for upgrades, repairs, insurance, and more. Especially in Portland, where right now the rental market is super red hot, it's easy to think that with so many tenants to choose from, it will be a breeze to find good ones.
Oregon Eviction Process: When a Tenant Stops Paying Rent
What to Look for in a Good Portland Property Manager
2016 Rental Market Update - Portland Property Manager Explains
Why Isn't My Property Renting?
Landlords, are you wondering why you're property isn't getting interest? You've spruced it up and put it on the market, but the clock is ticking. Every second that goes by without a renter is one where you are losing money. In this article, we're going to answer your question: My rental property is not renting, what am I doing wrong?
Tips for Getting Your Portland Home Rent Ready
How to Retain Great Tenants
The incentive for retaining renters in your investment property is clear and easy: it's less expensive to keep current renters instead of finding new ones. Reducing turnover goes hand in hand with less loss of revenue, and that goal is achieved by the work of many within a property management company. But so much more ties into creating a home that your renters are reluctant to leave, that a good property management team can stay on top of, and deliver.
Is Your Carpet Making You Sick?
Get a Leg Up on Renting Strategy
We don't need to tell you that the rental market in Portland is sizzling right now. As summer fades, demand for housing is still as hot as those Portland summer days we have left behind. If you plan on moving to Portland, or upgrading your current rental situation, it's best to start preparing to apply for a new rental now by doing the following...

Placement Methodology
Placement cohorts combine the main and all branch campuses and use the most recent contract end date. Placement rates are calculated on graduates from the graduation cohort who are eligible for placement, based on the most recent contract end date. A student may count as placed if they are employed in a field for which their training prepared them. If a student has graduated from the program, the school needs to determine whether he/she is eligible for placement.
All graduates must be declared eligible for placement unless they meet one of the following five conditions for ineligibility: the graduate is deceased, the graduate is permanently disabled, the graduate is deployed for military service/duty, the graduate studied under a student visa and is ineligible for employment in the U.S., or the graduate continued his/her education at an institution under the same ownership.
The calculation for placement is defined as: total number of placements divided by total number of completers minus ineligible completers.

Experiments described in this paper demonstrate that a weak constant current when running through the eye ball may noticeably alter the sensitivity of rod vision as well as that of cone vision. The direction of these changes of sensitivity depends upon which pole is placed on the eye ball. In the case of cone vision this direction is also influenced by the wave-length of the light stimulus. The authors advance an hypothesis explaining the action of the constant current on the eye by changes in the relative concentration of Ca and K ions in the neighborhood of poles. Special experiments performed with Ca and K iontophoresis have confirmed this interpretation.

Marcialonga Cycling Craft 14. Juni 2015
Marcialonga Cycling Craft in Predazzo
Marcialonga Cycling am 31. Mai in Predazzo
Marcialonga Cycling am 1. Juni in Predazzo
Marcialonga Cycling Craft part II. After being cancelled due to horrible weather conditions at the end of May, the 7th running of the notorious Marcialonga Cycling Craft road race in northern Italy has been rescheduled on Sunday 7 July, 2013. Italian organisers came to the conclusion that the race couldn't skip this year's race and managed to rearrange the entire event at the beginning of next month. In addition, entries have been reopened to give an opportunity to join the race also to those who couldn't make it last May.
Start and finish zone will be located in Predazzo city centre, where spectators might gather to cheer all participants and enjoy the expo area featuring sponsor booths, entertainment and the eventual pasta party.
Concerning the race itineraries, riders will cycle down through the entire Val di Fiemme, reaching the village of Molina and Lake of Stramentizzo, and continue up to Capriana and Anterivo little villages, where the Presenting Sponsor CRAFT Intermediate Sprint has been positioned. A 10k downhill will follow and once San Lugano Pass is reached, next challenge will be the 7k climb (over 17% gradient) to Pampeago Pass (Ski Center Latemar Pampeago KOM). An epic climb surrounded by majestic Dolomites that will certainly mark the long race (Granfondo), as those competing in the medium route will turn back to Tesero and Predazzo, right before this climb. After the pass, there is a 12k steep downhill, riders will enter the South-Tyrol area and climb the Costalunga Pass (up to 1752 meters a.s.l. - ITAS Assicurazioni KOM), before descending back to Val di Fassa and Predazzo, after 116 kilometres and 2.352 meters elevation gain.
Cunico, Di Salvo, Krys, Kairelis, Muraro, Bertuola and Eskov are certainly among the strongest podium candidates, as Gentili, Schartmüller, Vaccaroni, Zogli, Sonzogni and Mazzel are on the women's side.
The 7th Marcialonga Cycling Craft road race is part of the National Challenge Giordana series and forms the Combined Event 'Punto3 Craft' along with last January's Marcialonga XC ski-marathon and the Marcialonga Running event scheduled on September 1st.
