Photos of Completed Product
HeadGives information about the head of the costume. If reviewing a set of ears, the answers would also go in this section.
Wear Satisfaction How satisfying this piece is to wear with regard to comfort, fit, material quality, etc.
I'm extremely satisfied with the head! In fact its been the most comfortable head I've owned/weared. It's lined completely and the ventilation is great! I can even wear my glasses with him and my glasses barely fog up. The vision at first was a bit bad due to the paint/ eye material he used, but this was his personal suit and was an older suit of his and has since changed his technique! The eyes have since been replaced/ re painted and the vision is almost flawless now. There is a little blind spot but that is average for most suits.The head is also small which makes for easy travel and looks best with plantigrade suits!
Appearance Satisfaction How satisfying this piece is to look at with regard to material quality, design, how closely it matches the concept, etc.
His appearance is amazing! Everything is symmetrical and match up with the character completely. The shaving is flawless on the head. The fur is very soft, especially the mint green and short white. His expression is very cute but also a bit grumpy with I really love! MidnightSwim has a very unique style of eyes and heads that work amazingly especially with grumpy characters. I did not have concept art as again, this was a personal character/suit of theirs.
BodyGives information about the main body of the costume. If reviewing a separate set of pants/legs or torso, the answers would also go in this section.
Wear Satisfaction How satisfying this piece is to wear with regard to comfort, fit, material quality, etc.
The body is very comfortable to wear! And allows for great movement. I've been able to do a lot in it from bowling, to running around to dancing. Very few seams have popped since I've owned him, even then they've been small ones in common spots such as the armpit and been easy to sew! The quality again is amazing. The body is not lined but that is NOT a common thing to do, which makes it easier to clean and not be so hot, which allows for easy airflow! He is a plantigrade suit so there is no padding in him. He is also 'skin tight' which shows my body shape more which is totally okay with me! I think it adds character.
Appearance Satisfaction How satisfying this piece is to look at with regard to material quality, design, how closely it matches the concept, etc.
All markings are symmetrical. There is no shaving on the body since all short pile fur was used. The fur feels very soft especially the white/mint green fur! I'm very satisfied with the fur used and colors, it really makes him pop especially with the green!
Hands and FeetGives information about the hands and/or feet of the costume.
Wear Satisfaction How satisfying this piece is to wear with regard to comfort, fit, material quality, etc.
The hands fit me perfectly, I have tiny hands so usually paws can be big on me, but these are perfect for me! They're very comfortable and do not slide off, it also makes it easy to grab stuff. The quality is great also, they've been very durable and only popped one seam since I've had them. They are not lined, which again, IS NOT COMMON. This makes them easy to clean and does not make them hot and have easy airflow. The feet were not made by MidnightSwim
Appearance Satisfaction How satisfying this piece is to look at with regard to material quality, design, how closely it matches the concept, etc.
The appearance is great! They have a cute feral look which I love, they are also 4 digits which makes them more animal like which I love. They are both symmetrical and have no shaving done since again, all short file fur was used on them. The fur is very soft! The pawpads are made of minky which is my favorite material to use for paw pads, so I'm very satisfied with them! The only thing is they do not match the paw pads on his reference sheet which is okay since I believe a mint green isn't available in minky. The claws are also made of minky and are small which is very cute!
OverallHow satisfied the reviewer is with the overall buying experience, including their interactions with the maker and the resulting final product.
Product Satisfaction How satisfied the reviewer is with the overall look and feel of the costume in its entirety.
How well does everything fit together and match up?
Everything matches perfectly! There are no gaps between anything and he looks like a big ol doggo! The costume looks like all of their other suits.
Overall Project Quality
Very satisfied with him! His very cute, lovable and makes a great character to perform in. He was very affordable but this was due to him being an older suit + personal suit and the price he was sold to me for does NOT reflect their current prices.
Purchase Process Details the interactions between the customer/reviewer and the maker of the item with regard to the buying process.
Initial Contact
I purchased the suit over Twitter when they posted him for sale.
Maker Response Time
They were very quick and prompt! We communicate through Twitter.
Maker Professionalism
They are very professional and easy to contact! They speak more friend like now, but are still professional about it.
Project Completion Time
He was shipped out within 1-2 weeks, but this was due to them moving during the time.
Final Comments
Overall I would definitely recommend MidnightSwim to anyone who is looking to have a cute/ unique suit done! Their heads especially are very comfortable and lined flawlessly. I also love that I can wear my glasses which i was not able to do with my previous suits. I would definitely love to have Jaeger re done by them in the near future. The tail and feet paws were not made by them. The tail was made by Shagpoke and the feet were made by PocketWolfStudios

There are so many in need, and so many projects that could make a difference in the world. But how do you decide which projects should be funded and launched first, and if I donate to Medical care or Donate to Medical Research, how will my donation help?
Bella Vista is spearheading several different project segments, but all of them are connected. To better answer your question, this is the order in which we are proceeding with out projects, and why:
- California Outpatient surgical centers
- Bella Vista Medical Center
California Outpatient or ASC (Ambulatory Surgical Center)
Whenever you are out to make a positive impact in the world, it is always best to start at home first. As such, we have looked at our local community and found that there is a huge number of people waiting for surgeries. Once these surgeries are completed, these individuals will be able to resume their normal lives, which includes returning to work. This will lessen the burden on and alleviating the burden on their families, friends and institutions, as well as restoring tax dollars to the economy, which we desperately need.
In addition to the altruistic purposes, this also will bring greatly needed revenue into Bella Vista for use in our other projects, via the Doctors, Insurance companies, and Donors.
Finally, these centers will be used as educational facilities, to teach foreign doctors new, less invasive and life saving techniques and procedures which they can in turn utilise and teach to others for the purposes of providing medical care and training to those who otherwise do not have access to it.
Bella Vista Medical Center
Two of the greatest medical issues facing our society today, are Alzheimer's and the lack of viable organs for transplant procedures. As such, Bella Vista has set its sights on remedying both of the situations with a clear and focused Research pathway.
The Research community has made great strides in the use of stem cells to repair the damage done by Alzheimer's disease. That same field of research has made great progress in growing organs from cells taken from our very own bodies. This means that we no longer need to ensure matches for organs, nor do we need to take anti-rejection medication, as these organs have been grown from our own tissue, and carry our own DNA.
No longer will we have to worry if we will be able to enjoy our retirements with our memories and sanity intact, nor will people have to die while waiting on a lengthy transplant list for a new heart or lung, which may not even successfully function once transplanted into our bodies.
The Center for Tissue Repair will be the first of many building to be located on the site for the new Bella Vista Medical Center, which will not only allow us to do our research at a fraction of the typical costs, but also allow us to stimulate an economy which is in dire need.
For these reasons, CTR has been prioritised second on our Project plan.
Bella Vista Medical Center - Basic Medical Education Facilities
We would love to deploy new Rapid Response vehicles, or open a new hospital in the Northwestern region of Bulgaria in the EU; however, without properly trained staff, they would be nothing more than rusting vehicles and a dusty building which cannot service nor assist anyone. For this reason, Bella Vista will first open a new BASIC medical training facility. This facility will train first responders, such as EMTs, Paramedics and mobile nurses. We will also teach Phlebotomists and lab techs for use in CTR on the Bella Vista Medical Center campus.
Bella Vista Medical Center - Rapid Response Vehicles
The amount of time it takes for a person to receive basic and advanced medical care after a medical emergency occurs, will determine the survivability and permanent impairment sustained from the incident. If we could put properly equipped Rapid Response Vehicles, Ambulances and Medevac craft with the new trained EMTs, Paramedics, and ER nurses from Bella Vista's Basic medical training facility, we would greatly increase the survivability while decreasing the permanent disabilities resulting from medical emergencies in the region.
Bella Vista Medical Center - Mobile Medical
From the date we first started this project in 2015, Bella Vista Medical Center (BVMC) will take a decade to build and open to the general public. During this time, hundreds of thousands of people will either die or suffer due to a lack of sufficient medical care, screening and treatment. And once BVMC is open to the public, we will still have a strong need for mobile facilities to reach the outlying towns and villages, as the majority of the population will be unable to travel the distance needed to receive regular medical care.
For more than 50 years, hospitals have used mobile medical facilities to diagnose, and treat patients, as well as to share the cost of expensive technologies, like MRI and PET scanners.
Bella Vista will deploy several mobile medical trucks as well as companion trucks for radiological needs, such as MRI, PET and X-ray. With the implementation of these facilities, Bella Vista will be able to start healing the region of Northwestern Bulgaria, as well as start giving practical, real-world experience to the nurses who have graduated from the basic training programs at the new BVMC campus. This practical experience will help them to prepare for the opening of BVMC in 2025.
Bella Vista Medical Center - new Tertiary Care Facility
The heart and soul of the BVMC campus will be the new Tertiary Care Facility. This Facility will open up a whole new world for people of this region and the world. BVMC will be a primary medical care facility for the Northwestern region of Bulgaria, but it will also be a tertiary care facility for the entirety of Bulgaria as well as parts of Romania, Greece and Serbia.
This facility is not only a hospital for the urgent needs, but will also serve as a base of operations for the Center for Tissue Repair. A place where new procedures can be pioneered and new techniques can be perfected. This facility will be the proving ground for the worlds answers to dementia, and organ failure. In short, BVMC may be the place that is responsible for saving you and or your loved ones lives.
Bella Vista Medical Center - Advanced Medical Education Facilities
The final stage in the birth and development of BVMC, will be the opening of the Medical School on the Bella Vista campus. Bella Vista will train a new generation of Doctors and Psychologist to complete the healing process of this region and to improve the quality of medical care, world wide. UBV will be the educational arm of the BVMC, and will fully integrate our research, ER, surgical, and diagnostics facilities into a fully circle medical camps.
Whether you are a patient, doctor, nurse, technician or student; Bella Vista will be the place to care for your medical needs.
With the Exception of the US Based surgical centers, all projects are included in the total budget of Bella Vista Medical Center.
Please Donate Now to help us bring this vision to life, and make the world a better, healthier place for many generations to come.

BJP to take opposition head on over land bill
Bengaluru, Apr 4: With the land bill emerging as a common anti-government plank for the opposition, BJP on Saturday vowed to take on the "disinformation campaign" being run by the Congress and other parties.
Party has decided to reach out to farmers in every village and explaining to them all aspects of the bill.
The controversial bill was discussed in detail on the concluding day of the two-day National Executive meeting and formed a part of the party's political resolution adopted there. [Modi reveals his 8 mantras for success]
An elaborate power-point presentation on the issue was made at the meet and a booklet titled 'Information to Counter Disinformation (placing facts before the people)' was released as the party sought to rally its cadre around in support of the bill which is pending in Parliament.
"We will not allow the disinformation campaign which is baseless...The disinformation campaign by the opposition will be met with...The party will reveal the facts at every village and tell people that we have come with a law that is in favour of farmers and people."
"All party members would be going out to explain the public on the contents of the land bill. The intention of the government is to help farmers," Union minister Nirmala Sitharaman told reporters. [Land bill in focus on second day of BJP meet]
Asked if national executive members expressed concern over any aspect of the bill, she said "chinta (concern), if there is any, is about the disinformation campaign. [Land Bill: BJP will not bat an eyelid, takes aggressive approach]
She said the party will engage with allies like Shiv Sena and SAD, which have expressed serious reservations, and added that the party's intention was to take everybody on aboard and not to hurt anyone.
"When we are willing to engage with the opposition then why would not we engage with our own allies," she said.

Soil structure can begin to evolve from a single grain of massive form. When coming from a single grain, the development starts from the binding of soil particles form a clump (cluster) which later became ped. There are five main mechanisms that unites these particles, namely:
1. Activities during the growing root penetration.
2. Water movement which followed the direction of root growth leads to soil erosion and breakdown which then triggers the formation ped.
3. Activities exit and entry of soil fauna.
4. wetting and drying that expands and constrict the particles.
5. Disbursement, freezing, expanding and wrinkling particles.
Lump (ped) of land that form, should be stable, and stability ped formed depends on two conditions, namely:
a. The integrity of the soil surface at the time of rehydration, and the strength of the bond between colloidal particles in the ped when wet,
b. Ped resilience can be determined by wet screening method.
In this method, the dry soil is placed in a colander and then dipped into the water, the water immediately pervasive and urgent air trapped in the pore spaces of land, ped is not strong against this pressure will be broken and damaged, dropped through holes sieve. Ped-ped ped left is stable against water.
Generally, there are three groups of materials colloidal (diameter <1 m) which acts as an adhesive, the particles in the formation of soil aggregates, namely: (1) The clay mineral colloids, (2) iron oxides and manganese colloidal, and (3) colloidal organic matter, including results and overhaul activity of microbial cells. By the time the water evaporates, the plates will be adjacent clay and assisted by the adhesive, then there was a clumping (aggregation).
Figure 1:32. Sketches of the Land Aggregation Mechanism
Based on the above, the role of soil structure is very important for the agricultural world and the growth of plants. Without good soil structure, growth, development and production plant will be disrupted. How to determine the structure of the soil on the ground? And how the structure of the land in a farm. To answer this question must be observed in the field through practical observation soil structure.

New research shows that the British population are unclear about the symptoms of one of the most common eye conditions and are delaying treatment due to a number of unfounded myths.
In fact a medical study has revealed that 88% of people with cataracts were not receiving treatment or even in touch with eye health specialists.
Cataract facts
Lack of awareness of symptoms
Research undertaken for specialist eye hospital group, Optegra Eye Health Care, shows that despite 40 per cent of British adults being worried about cataracts affecting their vision, there is very low awareness of the symptoms:
In addition, further research revealed that:
Cataract treatment
Optegra offers treatment with the very latest technology, ensuring precise and accurate cataract treatment with lenses tailored for your own eyes.
Femtosecond laser technology is used as part of the cataract or lens replacement package because it is proven, precise and tailored specifically for individual eyes. Femtosecond laser technology allows the surgeon to precisely place laser pulses that effectively soften the lens for removal and ensure the appropriate condition for the optimum lens placement, helping to restore vision and eliminate any existing cataract.
Patients with private medical insurance who are having a cataract procedure may wish to 'upgrade' to the refractive lens exchange package, and the insurer may cover the cataract cost. Each insurer is different however, so it is important to speak with them before commencing your treatment.
To find out about the most common cataracts symptoms, read more here.
If you're experiencing any of the symptoms of cataracts, you may not have cataracts and your vision problems could be a result of other eye conditions. We would highly recommend that you book a personal consultation with one of our Consultant Ophthalmic Surgeons to discuss your concerns and have a thorough eye assessment.

FULLERTON, Calif. - Cal State Fullerton (16-9) topped Boston University, 3-1, to open up the Easton Invitational on Thursday night.
The Titans got the scoring started in the first as Alexa Neil led the inning off with an infield single. After stealing second, she would come around to score on a Deshea Hill double.
Fullerton would tack on some much needed insurance in the second. Irie Siofele led the inning off with a single and moved into scoring position on a sacrifice bunt. Neil would drive her in with a double to left-center and Ari Williams would follow that with a triple to dead center making it a 3-0 ballgame.
B2 | And Ari follows it up with a triple! That scores Lex easily and it's 3-0 now #TusksUp pic.twitter.com/6alge5KRsn— Titans Softball (@Fullerton_SB) March 15, 2019
Boston would plate a run in the fourth after three straight singles against Dani Martinez, but the freshman right-hander did a great job to limit the damage.
Sophie Frost came out of the bullpen to throw the final two innings recording her first save allowing just two hits while striking out a pair.

When I started listening to podcasts, I was an independent consultant traveling to and from clients, mostly by car. I rarely used the headphones on my iPod as it was almost always plugged into my car stereo. When I started working at Audible in their Wayne, NJ offices, that behavior continued.
When Audible moved to Newark, I started taking the train to work. That's when I noticed a marked difference in my podcast consumption. My total commuting time was only about 25 minutes – barely enough time to get into, say, Marketing Over Coffee or a presentation from IT Conversations. Since commuting didn't require me to keep my eyes on the road anymore, I also started reading books during my commute.
Now, I work in New York City and take the train to Penn Station – it's a 35 minute trip. So far, I'm alternating my media between a book + music (it drowns out the chatter on the train and helps me concentrate on my reading) or podcasts. That said, I still don't have nearly the listening time that I used to, which is disappointing. It almost makes me look forward to mowing the lawn, so I can sneak in a few more podcasts.

With Courmayeur being located at the foot of Mont Blanc, the highest mountain in Western Europe, this town provides easy access for skiers looking for the slopes. However, Courmayeur is also a great destination in its own right and if you are looking for somewhere to relax and unwind, this destination will not let you down.
There are a number of great sight-seeing destinations in Courmayeur but these are the main areas you will want to visit if you are spending any time in the region.
Spa Days
The use of spas as a relaxation tool can be traced back to Roman times and the people of Italy have been flocking to Courmayeur for centuries. This is down to the natural waters in the area which provide the perfect opportunity for spas to provide rest and relaxation all guests. A great number of hotels in the Courmayeur region will have spas on their own but the biggest and most well-known spa in the area is the Pre Saint Didier. This thermal bath complex is found a mere five kilometres from the heart of Courmayeur and it is the place to be.
The spa received a massive refurbishment in 2005 and ever since then it has been the number one place to visit to enjoy massages, mud therapy sessions and steam baths. With a number of outdoor pools, you can relax while getting a stunning view of the mountains that surround the local area.
No matter how long you are staying in the region, you need to find the time to visit a number of the local restaurants. If you are in Courmayeur for a day trip, you are recommended to stop in at the Christiana for lunch. This is an extremely popular restaurant and it boasts of making the finest thin-crisp pizzas you can find in the Alps. This is quite a claim but the general consensus is that they are able to match this boast and the prices fare very well in comparison to many of the other restaurants in the local area. When the sun is shining, this is the perfect location to enjoy some fine dining and get on with the important activity of people watching.
It is not as if this is the only recommended restaurant in the region though. The Cadran Solaire provides fantastic seasonal regional fare in a setting that is very atmospheric. A major plus point of this restaurant is the fact that the building can be traced back to the 16th century, providing you with a link to the history of Courmayeur. Some other great restaurants in the local area include La Palud, the Pizzeria Du Tunnel and Pierre Alexis 1877.
Chiecco is also a great example of the famous cuisine that Courmayeur is famous for and this restaurant, which is found on a mountainside, is a massive hit with locals and tourists. As you may expect, it is far from being the cheapest restaurant you will enjoy on your travels but the quality of food on offer will be well worth the price.
Grab a drink or a coffee to relax
There are also a number of fantastic bars and coffee houses in the area for you to relax in. The Bar Roma is probably the best known bar on the famous Via Roma. The pedestrianized streets of Courmayeur provide the perfect setting to take a stroll while looking at the many designer boutiques that are available in the region. Anyone looking to party into the small hours are recommended to jump into a taxi and head to Chamonix, where there is a much livelier nightclub scene.
As well as being located close to a number of great ski runs, you will also find that there are many hiking and walking trails to enjoy. No matter what sort of exercise and activity you are looking for in Courmayeur, you should find that you are able to make the most of your trip.
Given its close proximity to Mont Blanc and the Alps, if you are heading to Courmayeur, there is every chance you will fly in and out of Geneva Airport. To ensure you make the most of your trip, it would make sense to pre-book your Geneva to Courmayeur transfers. If you are looking to relax as much as possible on this break, start your trip in the right way by being picked up at the airport in comfort and style.Google+

Local High Schools Participate in National School Walkout By Sophie Corbett, junior at Carondelet High School

Local High Schools Participate in National School Walkout
By Sophie Corbett, junior at Carondelet High School
On Wednesday, March 14, several local high schools, including Alhambra, Carondelet, College Park, De La Salle, and Northgate, joined thousands of schools across the country and participated in the national school walkout, a protest against gun violence, particularly in schools.
The walkout took place exactly one month after 17 students and teachers lost their lives in a school shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. Students walked out of class from 10am to 10:17am; each minute represented one of the seventeen victims. Students who participated did so to honor the seventeen lives lost and to call for gun reform laws.
"Enough is enough," said College Park junior Ana Perez. "I participated to stand for those students that don't feel safe at school because guns are very easily obtained." Students had signs and wore orange to represent their support for stricter laws. "I think it's time for our elected officials to start making changes to our current gun laws," said Payton Martin, a junior at Carondelet. The walkout was completely student led and organized. "It's really inspiring to see teenagers around the country step up and make their voices heard, and I'm glad that my school provided a safe space for us to be a part of this powerful movement," added Payton.
Students at Carondelet and De La Salle staged their protest on the sidewalks of Winton Drive, the street that connects the two sibling schools. Alhambra students poured onto their football field, and at College Park there was a school organized protest in addition to the student led walkout. Northgate even organized an entire week full of activities, including having discussions about mental health and writing letters to elected officials. While not every student chose to participate, all schools in the area saw a large turnout. It is evident that our local high school students are advocating for change and speaking up for what they believe in.

Preservation of Evidence and Medical Assistance
A person reporting sexual misconduct is reminded of the importance of taking every precaution to preserve all evidence and to abstain from tampering with any items at the scene, changing clothes or washing any area of their body. Under some circumstances, the reporting party should seek immediate medical attention before washing themselves or clothing. If clothes have been removed, place each item separately in paper bags. The reporting party should preserve all phone call logs, emails, text messages, online communication and other evidence that is relevant to the specific complaint.
Medical assistance can be sought from any emergency room, such as the one located at Lakeland Medical Center, St. Joseph, Michigan. Financial assistance for hospital exam costs may be available—contact Michigan Crime Victim Services Commission for more information (517-333-SAFE).
In addition to the collection of evidence, hospital staff is able to check for other potential injuries and respond to the potential of pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases.
Confidentiality, Counseling and Support
The University will seek to be sensitive, supportive and respectful to all involved individuals. The University will also seek to take reasonable steps to maintain appropriate levels of confidentiality and will refrain from including in publicly available records the identity of the reporting party.
Although the University will attempt to limit the number of individuals who may learn about an allegation of Misconduct, the University cannot guarantee confidentiality in all matters. The University will attempt to balance the reporting party's request with the moral responsibility and federal guidelines to create a safe and nondiscriminatory environment. Ultimately, and especially in cases that involve pattern, predation, threats or violence, the University reserves the right to proceed in whatever manner it deems appropriate.
To comply with certain federal laws, the University is required to report statistics regarding Misconduct on its campus. Recordkeeping for this statistical report will be accomplished without the inclusion of identifying information about the reporting party or witnesses to the extent permissible by law.
Counselors and chaplains (hired or appointed by the University for a specific job description to provide counseling and pastoral care) have confidentiality obligations that prohibit them from reporting and activating established University processes. Therefore, while these individuals are able to provide confidentiality and important support, they are not the designated individuals to whom formal or informal reports should be given (see below).
A person reporting sexual misconduct, relationship violence, stalking, and discrimination based on sex are encouraged to seek the assistance of trained professional support systems. On-campus services for students include:
Off-campus community services for students include:

There might be a number of reasons for this.
First, we started in Melbourne, and then will expand to Sydney and Brisbane in late April 2018.
Adelaide, Perth and then other cities will follow.
So, if you live in a place we currently don't service, you won't see any deliveries.
Secondly, Passel chooses the "least inconvenienced" Passer.
So, you have to be in the right place at the right time!

Tavistock Investments (TAVI:AIM), a top 10 UK financial adviser network, hit break-even in the second half of its financial year according to a trading update issued ahead of full year results.
Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA), after excluding non-underlying items, is now expected to show a profit for the year to 31 March 2016, chief executive Brian Raven says.
Analyst Eric Burns at WH Ireland previously forecast a full year EBITDA loss of around £700,000 in an April 2016 research note.
'If I was giving this year a mark out of 10 it would be eight-and-a-half – and I don't tend to give 10s out very easily' said Raven.
Progress on profitability was backed up by good performance in two other areas Raven says are important to the company's success.
Customer service quality and the conversion of low margin assets under influence (AuI) into more valuable assets under management (AuM) are both key performance indicators for the business.
Tavistock services a network of 328 advisers managing a combined £4 billion of assets on behalf of their clients.
Around £430 million of these assets have so far been allocated into Tavistock's in-house discretionary fund management service which trades under the brand Tavistock Wealth.
Discretionary funds under management, where a provider is able to make investment decisions on behalf of its clients, is one of the more profitable areas in investment management and has been at the heart of the success of companies including Brooks Macdonald (BRK:AIM) since it joined AIM in 2005.
Tilney Bestinvest's £600 million acquisition of Towry Law in April valued the business at around 6.7% of funds under management, most of which were discretionary, though the deal looks expensive compared to peer group valuations.
Including shares potentially issued as deferred payment for recent acquisitions, Tavistock's market capitalisation of around £19.6 million is 4.6% of current discretionary funds under management.
Tavistock could be able to transition as much as £1 billion into its discretionary service by the year ending 31 March 2018, according to a forecast produced by analyst Burns at WH Ireland.
Prior to today's update, Burns pencilled in a 0.16p loss per share for the financial year just ended, with underlying post-tax profits of 0.23p and 0.49p per share for Tavistock's financial years to end-March 2017 and 2018.
Shares in Tavistock trade 11.8% higher at 4.75p.

Review: Shoulderpod S1 Professional smartphone rig
Shoulderpod, a company based out of Barcelona, began shipping the first 1,000 units of its new product, the S1 professional smartphone rig — a tool that helps mobile photographers and filmmakers improve stability while shooting. The $40 (CND) rig can be used in three ways: As a handheld stabilizer, a stand and it can also be fixed to a tripod.
Compared to other products like the made-for-iPhone SmartPhocus, Shoulderpod's rig is a one-size-fits-all product capable of handling devices between 48 and 93 millimetres. It does not, however, come with its own set of lenses or lens adapters.
Those who wish to use lenses will have to use clip-type lenses like olloclip's macro, telephoto lenses. (Note I haven't tested Olloclip's lenses and cannot vouch for their efficiency).
The S1 comes beautifully packaged in a small box containing the adjustable grip (this part has the tripod thread), a small weighed handle and strap made with grosgrain ribbon and leather.
The weighed handle makes quite a difference when using the rig for handheld shooting. It helps stabilize the hand and minimize movement.
Overall, the S1 is small and easy to carry, its rubber grip holds devices firmly without damaging them, it does not require a special case, it can be mounted on a tripod and is easily adaptable to virtually every device on the market. The grip is also small enough to leave the entirety of your device's screen free to use without covering any part of it.
It's hard to find something constructive to say about a product that is so simple and adaptable. The only downfall I've noticed, as mentioned before, comes for people who want to shoot with lenses and other gear. Thankfully, Shoulderpod's S1 is not cumbersome and serves as a safe grip for your devices.

the Gift of BellaAs many of you know I have been a very public supporter of the movie, Bella. I saw the movie for the first time in Nashville at the 2006 NRLC Conference. I was moved by the very realistic circumstance that Nina found herself and the serious response that Jose had to her situation. Having been involved for the last 32 years in listening to women who find themselves in unexpected pregnancies, I could appreciate both the film's approach and the characters' interaction as they addressed the subject of abortion.
I met the producers and found that they also believed that the film could help the "Ninas" of the world choose life. Their goal was to make a life affirming film. Such a film can help saves lives.
As many of you know the film went on to win the Toronto Film Festival in 2006 and the Smithsonian Legacy Award in 2007. Alejandro Monteverde was invited to sit with the First Lady Laura Bush during the 2007 State of the Union and Eduardo Verastegui has had many opportunities to explain his decision to make only films that will uplift the human spirit. Together with their fellow producers Leo Severino, Sean Wolfington and Steve McEveetty, they have presented a decidedly different way of approaching movies and the film as something that affects culture.
I have spoken in recent months on how the arts can promote the culture of life. Bella is just one way in which the film as an art form can influence the culture for good.
I am not the only one who liked the film. Tony Bennett was at the New York premiere and loved the film. He called it a work of art. He loved the music which is a particular favorite aspect of the movie to me.
Now Bella has finally opened and as I am writing this blog, it is Friday, November, 2, 2007. If you have not seen Bella, I invite you to go and partake of it. You will find it quite endearing and thought provoking. It is only playing in select theaters nationwide. I have learned that even good films, when they are produced by independents do not automatically get placed in theaters. There are all sorts of machinations involved. I have been told that if Bella does well this second week that the prospects of wider distribution are excellent. so it is important that people see Bella in order to allow more people to see Bella. Go figure. But as I said in the beginning, I am always encouraged by new ways that we can advance the pro-life message. Promoting life and affirming family values as Bella does is an important part of the mix. Having people in Hollywood who will live the Gospel of Life is so important if we are to make any impact on the culture.
Bella is getting a lot of buzz around the country and there have been some very interesting interviews that have addressed some of the challenges in making the film.
The folks in Hollywood may ignore Bella. The fact that it did well the first week must be supported by a good second week for the movie types to take any notice. So as I said take a break this weekend and catch a little film with a lot of heart. Bella.

Wojciech Kossak, self-portrait.
Wojciech Horacy Kossak
31 December 1856
Paris, France
|29 July 1942 (aged 85)
Kraków, Poland
|Known for
Notable work
|The Racławice Panorama
Panorama Berezyna
Olszynka Grochowska
Wyjazd na polowanie w Gödöllö
Krwawa niedziela w Petersburgu 22 stycznia 1905 r.
Wojciech Kossak (Paris, France, 31 December 1856 – 29 July 1942, Kraków, Poland) was a noted Polish painter and member of the celebrated Kossak family of artists and writers. He was the son of painter Juliusz Kossak, and twin brother of freedom fighter Tadeusz Kossak, and the father of two highly talented literary daughters, Maria Pawlikowska-Jasnorzewska and Magdalena Samozwaniec and of a painter son, Jerzy Kossak.
Wojciech Horacy Kossak was born on New Year's Eve of 1856 just before midnight, while his twin brother, Tadeusz Kossak, just after, on 1 January 1857, in Paris. The family eventually left France.[2] His middle name was in honour of his godfather, French painter Horace Vernet. Kossak began his education upon his family's return to Poland. He went to middle school at Three Crosses Square in Warsaw and later attended high school, the Gimnazjum św. Anny, in Kraków. He simultaneously studied painting with his father Juliusz.[3]
Between 1871-1873, Wojciech studied at the School of Drawing and Painting - later the School of Fine Arts - under Władysław Łuszczkiewicz, followed by a stint until 1875, at the Munich Academy of Fine Arts, with professors Aleksander Strähuber and Alexander Wagner.
Wojciech Kossak's historical painting was different in style from that of his predecessor Jan Matejko. He belonged to a new generation of Polish battle-scene artists influenced by the work of his father Juliusz. However, like Matejko, he is known for depicting the history of Polish armed struggle and notable Polish battles of Central and Eastern Europe against foreign oppressors. Among his most famous paintings is The Racławice Panorama.

"Currently, I have twenty working barbers, and we are here to cut. My team brings the business. My barbershop is culture. Period." - Israel Torres
"Our business practices volunteerism: coat drives, food drives, advocating for little league teams, cancer foundations, college campus events and supporting our veterans. We are privileged more than others in this world. We have a platform to set an example. Especially now more than ever. Plus, I have a great team of barbers, and they don't all have just one color of skin."
His shop is a platinum trombone to his community. Born and raised in the Latino-Chicago village, he began cutting hair during his teenage years, and that's when everyone started knowing his name. "Growing up in a lower income family. I couldn't afford to get a haircut, so I learned how to cut my own hair. Then my friends wanted me to cut their hair and I realized, I was a barber. My first goal was to become a licensed barber. I'm platinum now."
"It's 2019 and barbers aren't just men. My barbershop has a woman barber, Savannah, and her clientele is up there. Little girls will look up to her and should. We welcome all genders in my barbershop. It's about self-expression and I encourage everybody to express themselves to a certain extent, though I'm still the boss."
Most clients strongly agree that walking into Israel's barbershop without an appointment is like jumping on I-55 during five-o'clock traffic. On the weekends, you'll find Israel and more than half the Platinum staff cutting, their clients smiling, well before the capes are even off. It's effortless. But ultimately, Israel's love for his Mexican culture and unique leadership are what keeps the doors open. It's almost comic seeing new clients walk into Israel's barbershop expecting a leather seat to be empty the moment they finish writing their names on the waiting list.
Since becoming a shop owner of Seven26, located in Cicero, one of the few Latino communities near Chicago, Juan Acevedo has taken on the challenge to influence with positivity and encourage other barbers across Chicago to do the same in their communities. In 2014, Juan launched the very first 24 hour Chicago barber charity event, #CuttingtheNegativity, which helped fund his former elementary school.
He created the event to challenge local barbers to donate their time and money by cutting hair for free. For almost five years, Juan and his no negativity movement have traveled across the country, asking barbers to put their egos and wallets aside and cut hair out of love. Due to violent headlines in Chicago he decided to bring #CuttingtheNegativity back home. The Latino business owner has set a new goal for himself, to make the barber charity event more than just a hashtag.
In May of 2016, a horrific act of gun-violence took place inside Sunni Powell's Barber Shop which shook him and the entire community. Sunni chose to stay open, knowing business might never be quite the same. He continued using his space to encourage children to be independent thinkers by inviting Chicago artists to perform for the community.
In June 2018, Sunni helped relaunch The Barber Cease Fire Movement, and commits to make it a recurring event each year. His passion for spreading knowledge and petitioning for peace has captured the attention of humanitarians, entertainers, and most importantly, the Chicago Police Department.
"I wanted to set a precedent for peace. All the barbers came together to give free haircuts for the kids, and to show the whole world what peace looks like in our community."
"You cannot be a gangster and be a barber. You're always in the same place."
"Black barber culture is the foundation of black-American businesses. This cultural thing. This cutting hair for people who look like you or for anyone who needs a haircut. Whether it be for style or a health thing, it's precious for black culture."

|Tue, 05 Aug 2003 22:58:39 GMT
I have introduced two changes in the behavior of the FTP.FTPDirectoryScanner to make it behave like the normal DirectoryScanner : - possibility of following symbolic links which are directories, governed by the followSymlinks property, - including "" (root directory of the fileset) in the includedDirectories, as long as it matches include patterns These 2 changes are introducing behavior changes with ant 1.5.3 The impact of the changes : - symbolic links : if you are doing a get operation and there is a symbolic link pointing to a directory in the fileset, then you are going to download from the link too, whereas you previously would not have - the inclusion of "" in includedDirectories impacts only the action RM_DIR. I need to check whether it works anyway. The aim of the exercise was to make FTP.FTPDirectoryScanner pass the same tests as DirectoryScanner. My thoughts : 1) concerning the inclusion of "" in includedDirectories 1a) change the implementation of RM_DIR in order not to delete the root dir of the fileset or 1b) revert the inclusion of "" in includedDirectories and change the tests + document the difference with DirectoryScanner 2) Concerning the symbolic links 2a) keep the code change and simply mention it in WHATSNEW. Then users who do not want to download symbolic link directories can simply set the corresponding attribute to false. or 2b) add a flag in DirectoryScanner#setFollowSymlinks to record the fact that follow symlinks has been explicitly set to true, and only follow symlinks if the user mentioned it explicitly ? What are your thoughts ?

I loved this beer. It was to my tastebuds a typical West Coast Imperial IPA: High Alcohol (9.5% ABV), caramel malts, and hoppy as a mofo, with some mango and orange peel mixed in there as well. The Speakeasy Double Daddy IPA poured a cloudy orange with nice head retention. Mr. JK loved this one too. We paired it with some skirt steak and broccoli rabe*, and it was fantastic, 8/10.
*MR. JK and I have perfected the art of cooking greens. We blanche the greens (in this instance, broccoli rabe) in rapidly boiling salted water, then plunge into an ice bath to stop the cooking, and then drained and squeezed to get as much water out of there as possible. With broccoli rabe, the peeled stems are added first to cook them some more than the leaves, which cook quickly. Minced garlic and ginger are tossed into a hot wok with some sesame oil and cooked quickly, and then the greens are added to the wok, along with some super hot pickled peppers that Mr. JK picked up on one of his Chinatown excursions. Tasty stuff!

Over the last couple of months some of our abject minions dedicated evaluation team members have been trying out the Hard Time gloves from 5.11 Tactical and Ironclad.
They're based on the Tac AK2 glove with Kevlar and two articulated knuckle plates . The knuckle backs are hard laminate, separated to improve flex. There is goatskin on the palm, finger facings and fourchettes—and by fourchette we mean the "forked strip of material joining the front and back sections of the fingers of gloves", not the female genital piercing of the same name.
One additional advantage of these knuckle plates is that they're much lower profile than other brands. Sadly, such gloves are in violation of policy & procedure for a number of law enforcement agencies. Certain administrations view them like they would a sap or cudgel…cuz, you know, wearing a pair of hard knuckle gloves automatically makes you the Boxer of Quirinal.
We digress. The attribute we liked most about this glove was the tactility. You can easily manipulate an AR trigger or 1911 hammer and perform mag changes. Most telling, you can easily reload a 12-gauge, which in our experience has always been an excellent indicator of good fit and dexterity in a glove.) We didn't take apart a bolt carrier group or anything that like that but they definitely provide for superior dexterity.
The gloves fit snugly and have adjustable wrist straps. The current models are wrist cuff only, which might turn some wearers away. Those requiring an extended cuff (for break-and-rakes, for instance) will not get the protection they need, but 5.11 is releasing a gauntlet version with additional reinforcement soon.
This provision aside, the Hardtimes seem good to go. They will wear if you use them hard, of course, and the knuckles will get scratched up, but if you're upset about your gloves being scuffed then you're probably the same guy who snivels when he has to drop a magazine on the deck during training.
The biggest drawback we see on the Hard Time gloves price—they're $10 more than Oakley Pilots, but you're paying for greater dexterity (and it's American Kevlar, too). They're obviously more expensive than Mechanix gloves (which for the record we really like), but they'll also hold together long past when a Mechanix will be in rags. Hard Time tactical gloves are currently offered in black or desert in the "Accessories/Gloves" section of 5.11's website.

text: Though something felt a bit off, Lykke Li still managed to entertain at the 9:30 Club last night. In the middle of a song early on, she stopped her band and asked the crowd to put away their cameras and phones. A few songs later, she asked, "Are you sad about not being able to use your phones?" From some artists, this would seem like obnoxious mockery, but not Lykke Li—for her it was somehow just part of the charm. Her inability to hit the high notes in "Little Bit" was something else altogether, but aside from that misstep, last night's show was pretty much everything the sold-out crowd was asking for.

Grown Up Rocky Road
Who doesn't love a good baking recipe post??
I was lucky enough recently to be sent some lovely chocolate goodies from The Grown Up Chocolate Company, a brand I had never heard of (how??). Once I'd swiftly eaten what I was sent, I went online to order myself a bunch more to bake with. The bars I was sent were the 'Superb Salted Peanut Caramel Bar', the 'Crunchy Crispy Toffee Trilogy Chocolate Bar' and the 'Crunchy Praline Chocolate Wonder Bar'. The company reimagines chocolate bars we loved as children, made again for adults - except they're better. I looooooved what I was sent, my favourite being the 'Superb Salted Peanut Caramel Bar'. Think a Snickers but tastier. And I immediately wanted to bake with it. My idea was Rocky Road, but a little more grown up (get it? Ha!)
So if you're into baking/chocolate/peanut/salted caramel anything - read on for the recipe!
Note: There's a lot of 'ish' to this recipe. I winged it.
Salted Caramel Peanut Rocky Road
Prep Time - Literally like 15 minutes
- 400g (ish) milk chocolate
- 6 (ish) bars chocolate - I used the GUCC bars
- 200g (ish) marshmallows - I grabbed a bag in my local supermarket which was a little under. Mini mallows are good, as are big ones if they're cut. Whatever floats your boat!
- 200g (ish - sorry) roasted unsalted peanuts - I found some salted caramel ones by KP - ideal!
- Not needed but I had some peanut butter cups that I threw in too. Can't have too much peanut!
- Line a square baking tray with tin foil/baking parchment/cling film. It's not going in the oven, so anything works.
- Chop up the peanut bars, and throw two in a glass bowl along with all of the milk chocolate. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water and stir until it's partially melted. Don't let the bowl touch the water.
- Whilst the chocolate is melting, chop up the mallows (if you have the big un's) and place in another bowl along with the peanuts and the rest of the chopped up chocolate bars. Give it a stir until it's all combined.
- Once the chocolate has mostly melted, pour over the marshmallow mixture and stir, stir stir. This is where I made a huge melted chocolate mess on the counter. Sigh. Once the mixture is combined, transfer it to your baking tray, cover and refrigerate. So easy!
All in, this took me about half an hour. I spent a lot of that time cleaning up the mess I made. In hindsight, I wish I had another bar kept back to decorate the top. But that's just the decorator in me - the actual result was flippin' delicious!
Enjoy the recipe (and the sugar high). It's one I'll definitely be making again soon. Thanks Grown Up Chocolate Company!

Natalie Bush-Lents
Charlotte, North Carolina
I have spent much of my life nurturing my intellectual and rational sides - completing a law degree and becoming a practicing attorney. Avoiding the emotional and spiritual sides of life seemed like a safe path. My brand of feminism involved out-thinking and out-competing the men. I discovered Qoya shortly after giving birth to my daughter, and everything changed. I started a journey (which I am still on) to love, trust, and honor my body, heart, and soul, and to listen to my inner voice. The inner voice had always been there - I had made many major life decisions "based on my gut." But through Qoya I embraced the power of truly feeling what is present in my body and welcoming my body's wisdom.
If Qoya speaks to you, I would be honored to hold space for you on your own journey. Together, we move to remember our essence is wise, wild, and free!
I am currently teaching on Thursdays at 5:45 PM at Okra Yoga, 1912 Commonwealth Ave, Charlotte, NC. Register at www.okracharlotte.com/yoga/
When did you take your first Qoya class? June 2016 with Lyndsey Love Azlynne!
What does it mean for you to teach Qoya? For me, teaching Qoya allows me to share an amazing gift with others. Through Qoya, if I can help one woman to breathe a little more deeply throughout her day, to notice and trust that feeling in her gut, or to keep her body moving through a difficult transition, that is enough.
What is your favorite song to dance to right now? "Alaska" by Maggie Rogers
What book has inspired you on the path to embodying the feminine? Autobiography of an Orgasm by Betsy Blankenbaker
What would you tell someone who is thinking of taking a Qoya class for the first time? If you are thinking about it, do it! You are so fortunate that Qoya has found you. Try it with an open mind and open heart.

Violet Chain
(Violet Chain #1)
Author: J. Kahele
Publisher: J. Kahele
Publication: July 18, 2015
Genre: New Adult, Romance, Contemporary
My Rating:
After catching her fiancé with another woman at their engagement party, Violet Townsend's world is turned upside down.
Desperate to numb the pain, she falls into the arms of charming, young entrepreneur Chain Alexander.
Chain, a notorious womanizer of Philadelphia, not looking for anything more than a night of pleasure with a woman, is drawn to Violet instantly. There is something about her that he needs and wants so desperately and it's not just sex.
But Violet is resistant. Can she open her heart again after having it broken so brutally? And more importantly, should she?
This book is intended for mature audiences only!
Wow, that was hot!
Violet Chain is another New Adult book that swooned me. The story started when Violet Townsend discovered that her fiance cheated on her. After years of dating, she caught him having a sexual affair with a woman who later on claimed that she was pregnant. After their break-up, she met the hot and devilishly gorgeous businessman playboy Chain Alexander. The sexual tension instantly became apparent and they eventually hooked up. But as their sexual encounters frequented, Violet became confused whether she should trust a guy again and risk her heart or just leave everything purely sexual between her and Chain.
The thing that I actually liked about this book was the author's writing style. J. Kahele's writing made it easy for me to connect with the characters and the story. The book was also a fast and easy read and one with a simple and uncomplicated plot.
As for the main characters, I really, really love Chain Alexander. He's like a dream come true. Noted as a womanizer, he actually has a sweet soul and a tender heart– which were big points! Unfortunately, I had a difficult time liking Violet. To be honest I really don't mind bratty characters as long as they don't annoy me, but this woman constantly got on my nerves. I understand that she's broken-hearted and she has trust issues but what I don't understand is the way she was so selfish
most ofall the time, incessantly using Chain as her sexual release but always leaving him hanging in the air right after the sex.
When it comes to whole story though, I find it great. I like the hook-up, friends-with-benefits concept. The sexy scenes are also extra-hot and they definitely give feels! As a whole, it was a well-done NA book. I highly recommend it to readers who fancy smexy and emotional reads! 🙂
P.S. It has a cliffhanger ending, so the second book is definitely a-must!
(I was a given a free copy of this book from the author J. Kahele in exchange for an honest review. Thank you, Ms. J!)
