The year 1995 saw the first online casino open it had just 18 games. Since then, online gambling has taken off, manifesting into the multi-billion dollar worldwide industry that it is today.

Knowing the odds of the game means a punter needs to learn as much as they can about the game.
- Understand the rules of the game before you play. It's far too easy to make expensive mistakes if you don't know what you're doing.
Spending time reading and learning the strategies can teach you a thing or two.
Play Only at the Top Sites
You wouldn't dream to invest in junk bonds then treat casino selection as you would an investment, starting with credibility and reputation.
- Make sure that whatever site you join has a good reputation for paying their customers. If the reviews are saying that it's taking several weeks to get their bank wire, or months to get a paper check, do not play on that site.
- Join 2-3 sites. You'll have more variety and an assortment of prices and bonuses to choose from.
Play trusted sites that have been in business for a long time, and they're certified for fairness by an reputable independent auditor.
Make sure their site uses a highly regarded company for its software.
Gamble Online With a Good House Edge
Investigate which games and bets offer you the lowest house edge per bet. House edge is a measure of how much the casino pays relative to what true odds would pay.
Whether you're an avid card shark, a sports betting fanatic or maybe you just enjoy adventure games or the simplicity of slots; it's a part of your gambling journey to discover exactly what is your game. Online gambling offers hundreds of games for nearly every type of player. Finding your game, the one that suits your individual gaming tastes will ensure you'll be enjoying the game as much as possible.
Read the terms and conditions of your Welcome Bonus
The 'Welcome Bonus' is a popular marketing technique that online casinos use to get new punters in the door. Some online gambling sites lure punters in with offers of enormous bonuses. Those enormous bonuses also comes with an enormous deposit that is required on the punter's behalf. Not including that there are "playthrough" requirements before a punter can withdraw your winnings.
It's best to check to see which games count 100% and whether the playthrough is just for the bonus amount, or your deposit. Avoid online gambling sites which don't let you keep the bonus after you play it through because that is not cool. You should also do the math to see how much total play is needed.
There are all sorts of bonuses available in online gambling:
- Sign-up bonus
- Welcome bonus
- Deposit bonus
- No deposit bonus
- Free bonuses
- Refer-a-friend bonuses
- Loyalty bonuses
Pay close attention to the rules attached to each individual bonus. That way, you won't waste your time paying, playing and not collecting.
It's super easy to get carried away especially when you're having fun. It's also dangerous during a hot streak to spend more money and time than you were anticipating to spend. Do yourself a favor and set a time frame for your online gambling.
Set an alarm and listen to it. If you decide you're going to play for two hours, literally clock out at two hours. Pat yourself on the back for practicing gambling and self-control.
Online gambling casinos are open 24/7, however that doesn't mean you need to play for hours at a time. Try to limit your online gambling sessions to 90 minutes and be sure to take regular breaks. This way, you will feel better which means you will perform better. Think positively with inspiring gambling quotes that can help motivate a winning mindset.
Drinking impairs your judgement when gambling and although you may feel invincible, dude, you're not. Same goes after having a few beers, that roulette long shot looks so achievable, but your perception is warped. Truth is, you're not at the top of your game when you drink. So, stay sober and stick to a strategy.
Alcohol and gambling do not mix in a way that improves the clarity of your decision-making. Honestly, having a drink dulls your decision-making skills so it's a good plan to stay clear-headed.
Don't chase losses
Sometimes you win, and sometimes you lose, because they are both part of the game. A small loss can always be made up another time. A big loss is harder to come up on and then there's chasing losses. That basically never works. Online gambling isn't going anywhere, so the best thing to not chase your losses. Exit the gambling site and try again some other time.
Implement Logical Bankroll Management
Pro poker players practice sensible bankroll management. In bankroll management, they strategize how to handle downswings. The same proactive bankroll thinking and planning is applicable to online casino players. The number one goal is to make sure you don't exhaust your funds so you play with a budget. The second goal is to avoid hidden fees.
There may be hidden fees associated with online gambling transactions. For instance, Moneybookers/Skrill are specialists in gambling transactions and they charge nothing to have money sent to an online casino. Yet bear in mind that a conversion fee may still apply depending which currency you are using.
Other bankroll management techniques are choosing table stakes that are a specific percentage of your bankroll or setting yourself a loss limit. You can also set yourself a 'winning limit.' A winning limit is a figure you will reach before stopping for the day. The lesson to learn here is how well you win is just as important as handling how well you lose.
Know When To Stop
- Quit while you're ahead. If you always blow all your money, you'll always walk away feeling like you can't break even. But if you can practice self-control and walk away with money in your pocket then you can walk away a winner.
Losing money you can afford to lose is no fun. And losing money you can't afford to lose invites problem gambling into your life. Establish healthy gambling behaviors early like a quitting target with what you can afford to lose in advance. Then be sure to always quit if you hit that level.
There are all kinds of casino games and believe it, some have odds that are better than others. Some reduce the house edge to minute levels, while online gambling sites benefit the house rather than the player. Once you know which game you want to play, do some detective work. Look at other online gambling sites and compare their different styles with the house edge. Start playing the site that has the best odds.
Use your brain and beat casinos at their own game. For example, Black jack's house edge can be whittled down to only 0.05% by implementing good strategy. Yet slots have a 3-6% house edge which a punter can rarely ever overcome. Play the games that give you an advantage over the casino like blackjack, baccarat and video poker.

Sound off.
I'm quite shocked about this revelation. Here's a background. In less than 24 hours, some of the best creative minds in the advertising business will be in France for an 8-day international advertising awards - Cannes. As in most international creative awards, Sub-Saharan Africa rarely makes a good showing, except for industries like Music, Writings and whathaveyou. No advertising agency in Sub-Saharan Africa has bagged even a shortlist. So the expectation this year for Cannes Advertising Award has been high as Nigerian agencies make a record entry for the award: from 5 last year to 23 this year. And so the increase in entries this year raises a possibility of a shortlist, at least. For those who don't understand why a shortlist is important in advertising awards, you only need to know that some of the toughest juries are advertising juries, and add to the fact that in an award category of more than 2000 entries, the jury may just award only 150 works or less. Yes, it's that tough.
Even though some influencers in the industry are getting cynical and tired about awards, regions where it's still a rarity to win them still strive to win, at least to fuel regional pride and individual creative capacity.
So hopes are high this year... Is Nigeria going to break the jinx? Which agency waits to earn bragging right? Which creative team or Creative Directors will have their career changed for good? Is this the year to register our 3rd world advertising industry on the global map? Questions and hopes mix in high temperature.
I've seen most of the works and I must mention that it's very likely that this is the year. Perhaps, I'm wrong but my bet is high. But then, if it doesn't happen this year, we could just have a major intervention in our creative departments and start all over again, or keep praying to whatever gods we believe in. Some of the works are truly brilliant.
By some chance meeting, I had a chat with one of the creative directors whose agency entered works and to my surprise, he mentioned that another agency has been investigated to ascertain whether the works they entered for awards or for international publications are genuine. (For the non-advertising people, loosely defined, genuine works are those that are approved by clients and published in the media the same way as they were approved.) If the works weren't approved and they are exposed as such, the industry calls them Scam ads.
And o'boy, there are scam ads everywhere. The latest one that got international attention (and derision) was an ad by an Indian advertising agency for Ford Figo. The work, in my opinion aren't creatively bad although the technique isn't really new. But there were cries, even on Huffington Post, about the tastelessness of the idea. What made it all annoying was that the ads weren't approved by Ford but the agency published them as though they were. Wait for it... The creative team got fired! And that's because the industry needs to sanitise itself to avoid cases where unapproved works are entered as "approved."
In the case of awards, most advertising festivals state in their entry requirements that only genuinely-published and client-approved works must be entered. But there's been stories of agencies scuttling this for selfish reasons.
I understand. In a bid to validate themselves, creative people are prone to letting enthusiasm becloud their sense of reason(ing). Hence, they hope that the award organisers will remain ignorant of their shady move.
Back to the matter. I got curious when the creative director mentioned that another Nigerian agency has been investigated by an international publication. I strongly doubted it especially because I know the agency and respect their thinking, and also because it's rather expected that reporting them (whether or not they enter scam ads) is expected from "bad-belle people".
It's not important now to mention that I confirmed from those related to the agency if they've been investigated and they confirmed that some of the entered works are questionable in status.
But I really do wish that it isn't true because that portends a bad direction for the industry. If the works do win awards (or shortlist) and are followed by public relations efforts, should the rest of the industry join in celebrating the broken jinx at the expense of ethical practices?
If we do remarkable works and exhibit them appropriately, we will not only earn global recognition but we will help push the industry forward in ways that favour the clients, the creative people and the region.
So as team Nigeria takes the flight tonight, I wish them the best. But most importantly, I hope they see collective interest above individual selfish agendas. May the Force sorry... May the juju be with you :)
And may all and the best (scam) ads win.

Any anime fan knows Goku's reputation as one of the most unbelievably strong characters out there. As a Saiyan, he can ascend to greater and greater heights of power through his super transformations, and nearing death in battle only makes him bounce back stronger than ever. And as if he wasn't bad enough on his own, his many friendships give him plenty of allies, easy access to senzu beans, being able to use the fusion technique, and quick power boosters like the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.
So yeah, Goku is scary strong. But despite his reputation for being the guy the Dragon Ball series goes out of its way to cater to, Goku has been beaten. Many times, actually. And we're going to prove it to you. Looking through the original Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, Super, the movies, GT, and one very special non-canon fight, we're going to look at times when the impossible happened.
These fights aren't ranked since they each have such varying factors behind Goku's defeat. But we're defining "beat" as one on one encounters where the opponent stood tall, and Goku had to retreat, heal up, or wait for a rematch another day. Throughout the franchise, this is 15 Characters Who Have Beaten Goku.
Though the grudge between Vegeta and Goku would become what the Dragon Ball franchise is famous for, Goku has had plenty of enemies turn into allies over the course of his adventure. In fact, it almost feels like he has to fight someone before he can be friends with them. But before Vegeta, the biggest threat Goku came up against was King Piccolo, an antagonist whose brood would kill numerous friends of Goku.
Though King Piccolo's reincarnation into Piccolo Jr. would eventually lead into an alliance between the Saiyan and the Namekian, King Piccolo had no such interest in friendship. He wanted power, while Goku wanted revenge for the death of Krillin. And while Krillin's death at the hands of Frieza would later be the tipping point that turned Goku Super Saiyan, the first time just wasn't enough, and King Piccolo dominated Goku. It even appeared Piccolo had killed Goku at first, but instead we learned he had just temporarily stopped his heart.
Dragon Ball Super has already introduced numerous powerful fighters for Goku and his friends to go up against, and naturally Goku himself is having some of the biggest clashes with them. But what might be surprising fans is just how many of these battles from Super Goku is losing. Hit is just the latest of the bunch to score a win, an assassin who Goku encountered during a tournament pitting a team representing Beerus versus one siding with Champa. Goku himself admitted that if Hit hadn't been holding back, Goku might have died during this fight.
But the fact that Hit was forced to restrain himself is exactly why Goku lost. Under the tournament's rules, no killing was allowed. And as an assassin, Hit's powers are at their strongest when going for killing blows, so fighting at a nonlethal style was putting him at a disadvantage. Realizing this, the ever honorable Goku decided he didn't want to win an unfair fight and casually jumped outside the ring to cost himself the match. It was a voluntary loss, and it's stuff like this that made us decide against ranking these losses in any particular order. Hit was obviously extremely powerful and possibly could have ended Goku's life, but the anticlimactic and self-induced loss definitely doesn't make this a very impressive victory for Hit.
Long before power levels and super transformations became the defining method to prove who was strongest, the Dragon Ball franchise was much more like true martial arts, where years of training and proper technique can lead to surprising victories. A muscular man with no fight experience going against someone who had mastered numerous fighting styles can often be a one-sided beating for the bigger man. This was especially true in the original Dragon Ball.
There was never any doubt that Goku is extraordinarily strong. Even as a child, he had a difficult time finding challenging opponents. But his first true defeat wasn't against someone with bulging muscles like Broly, or the power to destroy planets like Buu. It was just a man by the name of Mercenary Tao who tormented local villagers. There're no excuses for Goku's defeat here except his adversary was better trained and Goku didn't have enough time to adapt to his style and find a weak point. The inevitable rematch was much less one-sided, but Mercenary Tao was an early reminder that even a superhuman power like Goku's can be overcome with superior training.
This will probably be one of the most debated entries on this list, but we're going by the end result, which saw Majin Vegeta leave Goku on the ground after a hard fought fight. Now, Goku was concealing his Super Saiyan 3 transformation at this time for the sake of it being a fair fight, but let's just say Goku had gone SSJ3. As we learned during his fight with Fat Buu, the transformation was using up Goku's limited time he had to visit Earth. So all Vegeta would have had to do was survive long enough for Goku's time to run out, and he likely would have, since Goku would never kill someone he still considered a friend.
If you're still skeptical, let's look at it from Vegeta's side: SSJ3 Goku had a fairly even match against Fat Buu, so we can assume they were close in power. Majin Vegeta later fought Fat Buu and got beat down. Rather than take defeat, Majin Vegeta sacrificed himself to try and kill Buu and blew them both to pieces. So it's reasonable to assume if Goku had used SSJ3 against Vegeta, Vegeta would have used that same technique. And since Goku can't regenerate like Buu, it likely would have left him dead(er), and we'd still be including it on this list.
Facts are facts, and Goku prefers a fair fight, while Vegeta is willing to play dirty. So whether it was the kamikaze detonation or the sucker punch to the back of the head, Vegeta's pride wasn't letting him lose this fight.
While the parody series Dragon Ball Z: Abridged has treated Raditz like the biggest joke of the Saiyan race, Goku's long lost brother with the rock star hair really was quite formidable when he first arrived. During his initial run in with Goku, Raditz quickly asserted his power by laying out his little brother—with one hit.
All it took was a knee to the stomach and Goku was on his back and could only helplessly watch as Gohan was kidnapped right in front of him. The swift beating made Goku realize he was no match for his evil older brother, and he turned to an uneasy alliance in his former rival Piccolo to even the odds. From there, the fight escalated into an unfair contest to measure since it was two on one, but Raditz was still clearly stronger than both of his challengers. And despite his death and short-lived duration in the series, he succeeded in driving Goku to such desperation that the newly dubbed Kakarot succumbed to his first death in the entire franchise while sacrificing himself to restrain Raditz.
To fans of Dragon Ball Z alone, Master Roshi is probably remembered as nothing more than the old pervy guy who lives with a turtle. But like many of the characters who originated in the original Dragon Ball, he was once a far more important character and able to keep up with the fighting ability of the most powerful characters around. But to Goku, this warrior side of Master Roshi was known as the alias Jackie Chun, a name Roshi went by complete with different hair and clothes so Goku would think there were lots of people out there who could still beat him. While in reality, Goku was already stronger than almost everyone around at this point.
This is another loss that came within the rules of a tournament, but this was one of Goku's few truly decisive tournament losses. This wasn't a fight he lost by technicality or by some trick of the rules. He just clashed against a superior fighter this time around. And yeah, Master Roshi barely won and might have even lost a rematch had one happened a day later, but this was one of Goku's earliest experiences of technique and training tipping the balance of power.
It's losses like this one that made us decide against trying to rank these defeats. In the canon of the series, this was Goku's first loss since becoming a Super Saiyan. And it was a bad loss, too. If not for the intervention of Vegeta, Goku very likely could have died during this encounter. He was left helpless on the ground with 19 quickly sapping all his energy, and barely any damage done to his opponent. But in retrospect, this fight was even more humiliating because of how weak we quickly learned 19 was.
In truth, it wasn't 19 that defeated Goku, but the heart virus that Future Trunks warned of. It was just really bad timing that the negative effects kicked in right while he was in the middle of a fight. As Vegeta demonstrated, a healthy Super Saiyan would have no problem dismantling this android. Unfortunately, a bad heart means Android 19 joins the elite list of fighters who got the better of Goku.
Dragon Ball GT might have a bad reputation among a lot of the fans of the franchise, but one area that it did well in was creating new and interesting villains. The evil dragons were a good balance against over use of the dragon balls, and the villains of Hell escaping back to Earth was another intriguing move. But probably the best remembered villain from GT would have to be Baby, who had more episodes devoted to him than any other villain in the infamous series. Like the other villains, Baby's strength felt like a counter to what the characters had taken for granted since the Saiyan's lust for power was exactly what made Baby such a huge threat when he took control of their bodies.
Unfortunately, one of the main gimmicks of GT was Goku being transformed back into a child, which made his body unable to handle as much power as he could before. So when it came time to tangle with Baby, Goku was unable to utilize his Super Saiyan 3 form effectively and was defeated without much of a challenge for Baby's multiplying power. Goku was even nearly killed during the initial encounter, and only survived due to being rescued by Kibito Kai.
Yes, the guy who dies in the very first arc of Dragon Ball Z once defeated Goku. Nowadays, Tien is regarded as little better than his fellow Dragon Ball originals Yamcha, Master Roshi, and Oolong. But all of them were once feared for their power, and Tien was perhaps the most promising of the bunch. His first fight with Goku saw him demonstrate all sorts of techniques fans who exclusively watched DBZ would never think of, such as the ability to grow extra arms to fight with.
This victory was yet another that took place within a tournament, and was honestly the most luck-based of the bunch in its finish. As is usual in the series' tournaments, landing outside the ring meant defeat. So it was a critical moment when Tien and Goku were both high in the air and falling fast towards the Earth. Whoever hit first was going to lose. Despite his failing energy, Goku emitted enough of a Kamehameha to slow his descent so that Tien was poised to land first. But as luck would have it, the two fell right past a city street and a car zoomed by right as Goku passed, hitting him and knocking him down into the street first. Despite Tien's impressive fighting performance, his victory was really a fluke, and when the two fought again next year, Goku would prove that by beating Tien in far more conclusive circumstances.
In case the earlier mentioned Majin Vegeta victory still didn't have you convinced, there's no denying the first fight between Goku and Vegeta went the Saiyan Prince's way. Even with all the training he got from King Kai, Vegeta proved to be the most powerful antagonistic Saiyan Goku had encountered thus far, and continuously had new tricks to counter Goku's techniques. The most effective maneuver was definitely Vegeta utilizing his Saiyan tail to transform into a Great Ape. No amount of super speed or strength could counter Vegeta's Great Ape form crushing Goku between his hands.
Of course, anyone who's seen the series knows the fight didn't end there. Gohan, Krillin, and Yajirobe all interfered on Goku's behalf to remove Vegeta's tail and take away his Great Ape form. But the damage was done, and Goku was left helpless for the rest of the fight. Despite the good guys standing tall at the end, in the one on one portion of this encounter, Vegeta asserted his will and was surely on the way to literally ripping Goku apart.
Even though this fight didn't see Goku getting beaten unconscious as several others on this list have, it was still shocking to witness. And the funny thing is Goku himself gave away the ending to this fight before it ever happened, telling his friends that he didn't have a chance against Cell. Maybe Goku slacked off in training because he felt confident Gohan could handle this, or maybe he really did do everything he could to prepare and it still wasn't enough. Regardless, the end result was Goku forfeiting in the middle of the Cell Games after he realized his clash with Cell was going against his favor.
But Cell's triumph over Goku doesn't end there. Due to being a sore loser once he realized he couldn't defeat Gohan, Cell decided to detonate himself and destroy the Earth. Goku wasn't having that though, and was forced to use Instant Transmission to take the blast away from his friends, even though it meant sacrificing himself. This gives Cell an even bigger distinction in the franchise—he's one of only two characters to have killed Goku. The other? That was another sacrifice from Goku when he restrained Raditz while Piccolo killed them both.
If we're talking about someone getting "beaten" in the most literal definition of the word, we can't really leave out two characters who have periodically left Goku bruised and seeing stars. The spouses of Goku and Vegeta have shown no shortage of bravery in standing up to some of the most powerful beings in the galaxy, and that includes their own husbands. And since Goku met Chi-Chi and Bulma when they were both kids, that means he's had many years of enduring their tempers.
From the first day that Goku met Chi-Chi, she was shoving him off the Flying Nimbus in midair for using some… unusual methods of determining her gender. And Bulma nearly killed Goku the second she met him, inadvertently ramming into him with her car, and opening fire on him with a gun when he began to fight back.
But it's their devastating slaps that both women are known best for, and Goku has been the recipient of them for sure. He probably had it the worst from Bulma in Battle of Gods when Goku mocked Vegeta's fury over Beerus striking Bulma. Goku suggested whenever it looked like they were in trouble, they should just hit Bulma so Vegeta would power up. Suffice to say, neither Bulma nor her husband appreciated that suggestion, and Goku got a few well deserved slaps for making light of the matter. Throughout the franchise, no one has been beating Goku around for longer than Chi-Chi and Bulma.
You might be kind of iffy on this one since Goku wound up killing Golden Frieza in the end, but don't forget the circumstances that led up to that finish. Goku was so overconfident and giving in to his typical flaw of wanting to give everyone a fair fight that he allowed himself to be put into a position where he was going to be killed. In their one on one fight, Frieza left Goku lying helpless on the ground. Not only that, but even after Vegeta stepped in, Frieza still won by simultaneously killing Vegeta and destroying the Earth.
Sure, Goku got the kill in the end, but it was only after being saved by Vegeta, having his strength restored by a senzu bean, and Whis being merciful enough to utilize his time travel powers. Goku was beat, people. Without his friends, he was a dead Saiyan in this encounter. And the sad thing is, Goku learned nothing from this. After being chastised by Beerus and Whis for his unwillingness to let go of his competitive grudge with Vegeta that kept them from fighting alongside each other, Goku laughed off the reprimand, meaning this will likely happen again.
Here's that special fight we mentioned at the start of this article. Screw Attack's Death Battle series theorized how not one, but two fights of Goku vs Superman would go, and Goku lost them both. Obviously this fight isn't canon to anything, but it got a lot of notice from fans and had some really strong reactions, so it's definitely worth a mention here. Two iconic characters who are among the last survivors from their destroyed home planets, growing up to be two of the most powerful characters in the world of fiction? You're darn right fans wanted to see this, and like the outcomes or not, the Death Battle team made a pretty good argument for Superman's triumph.
The first fight took place years ago, and capped Goku's power at the Super Saiyan 4 transformation. Not knowing that Superman derived strength from the sun, Goku inadvertently knocked his opponent into what would have been certain death for any other character. Unfortunately for Goku, it just allowed Superman to power up, plow through a desperation Kamehameha, and destroy Goku along with planet Earth.
Round two took place about a year ago, meaning this time Super Saiyan God could be factored in for the difference maker. Superman used the Dragon Balls to wish the Earth and Goku back into existence, and the fight began again with Goku utilizing his new form. This one was a much shorter encounter. Goku quickly dished out his best, but fearing the Earth would accidently be destroyed again, Superman didn't play games this time and used his heat vision to destroy Goku's brain. The message was clear—no one beats Superman. It honestly shouldn't be too surprising. Bombs, gods, and armies have all failed to defeat the son of Krypton, so how could a lone Saiyan do what so many others couldn't?
Though we've said numerous times that this list isn't meant to be a ranking, we of course have to end things with a memorable loss (saving Android 19 for last didn't feel quite as climactic). Anyone who has been paying attention to events in the Dragon Ball franchise lately knows that Beerus is currently one of the most powerful characters ever. And yes, much more powerful than Goku. But then, Goku has beaten foes stronger than himself before, like gathering Earth's energy for a spirit bomb to defeat Kid Buu. So it's not as if there's no way he could ever beat Beerus. And yet, in Battle of Gods, even with his friends helping him power up into a Super Saiyan God, Goku still lost.
What makes this a loss worth saving for last is that Beerus revealed after he won that he wasn't even using his full power against Goku. This wasn't like some of the earlier entries where he came up short, but it could be anyone's win in a rematch. This was simply Goku getting totally outclassed to the point he granted Beerus permission to fulfill his threat to destroy the Earth if he wanted to. And though Goku can now become a Super Saiyan God at will, it's not as if his friends granting him another power up could lead to a sure victory in a rematch. Beerus is one of the few opponents Goku has faced with a reliable friend of his own. Should trouble arise, Whis has not only demonstrated that he can throw Beerus around, but he can also rewind time to avert an undesirable outcome. So suffice to say, Goku really stood no chance in this encounter.

Orange Crush Line
(produced here at CBE)
Several years back high orange offspring began showing up from specific pairings in my collection. I held the best of these back and bred them into two specific bloodlines. The results of these pairings have been great, consistantly producing exceptional looking "high orange" offspring. I decided to call this line "Orange Crush" because of the vivid orange color and to differenciate it from other breeders also producing northerns with orange color.
Thanks, Donna
Examples of some of the offspring from this line.

Anatomy Lab/
We were joined by two lovely groups of people yesterday for our Anatomy Lab workshop at the Be Magnificent Summer School. Using collage packs that had been specially designed and produced at Rabbits Road Press, participants explored the emotional anatomy, as well as physical anatomy, of the human body.
For the afternoon session we were based at Waltham Forest College and worked with creatives from Headway, a charity supporting people with brain injuries, and students from the college. The evening workshop was an open public workshop at the William Morris Gallery. The collages produced were pretty stunning and we even got a change to make individual GIFs for each person. Below are just a few examples of the collages that were made, too many lovely works to fit in!

Within the 1950s the world needed to deal with the post warfare destruction and rebuilding of architecture from the German bombing. With the assistance of main trend editor Maggie Prescott—whose character was primarily based off of BAZAAR's personal Diana Vreeland—famously pals with Avedon in actual life—Jo turns into fashion's newest darling by a collection of attractive photograph shoots staged throughout Paris.
In the direction of the end of the decade, many younger males adopted the extra tailor-made, British-influenced Teddy Boy style of gown – high-waisted, slender 'drain pipe' trousers, long jackets, slim ties and huge, shiny pointed sneakers called 'winklepickers'.
These modern conditions nonetheless produced an identical impact on the fashion business: while so many issues in the lives of People have been changing, they stayed clear from the radical, intense fashions while preferring the normalcy of ordinary developments.
Fashion remained deliberately fluid, throwing out feelers in all instructions, after they all swing one feelers were cast in the direction of the Twenties, especially by Hardy Amies in London, who showed fits with straight unbelted hip-hugging jackets over straight skirts.
As one trend writer put it, 1957 was the 12 months by which Gabrielle Coco" Chanel (at age seventy four) turned an adjective in her personal time." Form of like Googling," Chanelisms had been creeping again into vogue ever since the lady emerged from retirement several years before, however in 1957 they have been ubiquitous.

Tuesdays From 6th April, 10.00pm
Nine ordinary Americans have volunteered to participate in a unique experiment, to be stranded deep in the heart of Central Alaska. Their goal is to make it back to civilization. Left with only the barest of essentials, they travel sixty of the harshest miles on the planet while battling hunger, fatigue, and an unforgiving winter that will make survival almost impossible. These nine strangers must work together to hunt, fish, and trap their own food. Along the way, they encounter several backcountry shelters that they must utilize in order to protect themselves from Alaska's frigid winter temperatures and whipping winds. This epic test of wills lasts almost an entire month, and the brutality of life in the wild will tax each member physically as well as psychologically. And this is not a contest. There is no million-dollar prize waiting for them at the end of the journey.

For Mozilla Firefox engine fans out there, you may just be surprised to hear this one. Mozilla Corp. has recently released newest version, the Firefox 3.1 Beta 2 engine. What's cool about this is that it's Javascript is faster and has a privacy mode.
Released in December of last year, it has a Private Browsing feature. This enables the user to erase any trace of browsing history. With this, it has been called the "porn mode" of the engine. We say it is as cool as it gets.
Though for shortcut key addicts out there, you may want to know that there has been a feature removed in this engine. That is the Ctrl+Tab tab switching feature. Instead, it has been replaced with another feature in which the user may switch on the current and previous tab.
Well, despite these alterations, we think that the new Mozilla Firefox will be much appreciated knowing it has a TraceMonkey, which makes browsing all the quicker, coupled by its privacy feature. The Firefox 3.1 Beta 2 engine is available for download for Mac OS X, Windows and Linux in www.mozilla.com.

The Brazilian mother of two reportedly traveled to Rio de Janeiro to see Dr. Denis Furtado for buttock enlargement surgery.
It's thought Lilian Calixto had booked to receive PMMA acrylic fillers to increase the size of her behind and a hormone injections used to treat symptoms of the menopause.
"Doutor Bumbum"— HiperNotícias (@hipernoticias) July 17, 2018
Desesperada e revoltada, a família de Lilian Calixto pede justiça pela morte da bancária. Durante o velório, o filho da vítima desabafou entre lágrimas.#HiperNotícias https://t.co/ipxdEgt3v5
But hours after being injected Calixto started gasping for air and Furtado took her to hospital where she was reported to be in an "extremely severe condition and unresponsive to manoeuvres," she died in the early hours of the morning.
A source is reported in the press saying the celebrity surgeon injected the fillers into an artery by mistake which led to the formation of a clot which would have ruptured in her heart.
Furtado is now considered a fugitive of justice.
Brazil: celebrity backroom plastic surgeon Dr.Bum Bum on the run after patients death following botched operation in his apartment https://t.co/1xqwpA17cE— Sam Cowie (@SamCowie84) July 17, 2018
Two patients die for every 100,000 cosmetic surgery procedures, according to plastic surgery deaths statistics published in the Plastic and Reconstructive surgery journal.
The most common cause of death among cosmetic surgery patients are pulmonary embolisms when the flow of oxygen to the lungs is blocked by a blood clot.
Fat embolism can also arise in surgeries including the so-called "Brazilian Butt Lift' or Breast augmentation when lumps of silicone cause complications.

Jeanette Edwards, professor of social anthropology at University of Manchester and chair of the council's inquiry said: "We've been shocked by some of the evidence we've seen, including make-over apps and cosmetic surgery 'games' that target girls as young as nine."
"There is daily bombardment from advertizing and through social media channels like Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat that relentlessly promote unrealistic and often discriminatory message on how people, especially girls and women, should 'look', Professor Edwards said in a statement.

Making Instructions, But Not Using Lpub?
Aimeeaa posted a topic in Archive - old v2 questionsDo any other programs exist for making step-by-step instructions from ldr/mpd files, apart from LPub? I find it really unintuitive, buggy, and sluggish - for example, when I try and drag a box containing a callout, or arrange things on a page, it bugs out and things jump around all over the page, often outside the page borders. I make sure as I've learned to use LDraw better and better, that I include steps and rotations in the files themselves, but even then LPub is a nightmare to use. Blueprint seems to only be for LDD. So what can I do? Is it a case of get good with LPub or go home? Edit: I should also mention, about 75% of the time, the program crashes on startup (at the splash screen), and 100% of the time, it gives redundant error messages when I open a file, move something, edit a page, or perform any action, saying it failed to open, for example C:/Users/Name/Desktop/MOCs/LPub3D/tmp/c:\users\name\desktop\mocname.ldr.

Holiday Shopping Tips
Dec 9th
Posted by Joel Harrison in Credit Fraud
The holidays are here and shoppers are out (and in) in full force. It seems as the years go by, online shopping is becoming the ideal way to get your loved ones, and yourself, gifts for the holidays. Cyber-Monday is growing every year with deals getting better than those offered on black Friday. Retailers are offering deals online that you just can't get in the stores.
I still go out on black Friday, but it is more of a nostalgic thing. I like to watch people go crazy and reminisce about the good old days when shoppers would trample each other More >

Apple Maps launched back in 2012 alongside iOS 6 and was initially critiqued for a number of issues.
Many insisted the software lacked the accuracy present on Google Maps – some locations were said to be in the wrong place while others were missing completely.
However, since its initial release Apple has made huge strides forward with the software by adding a host of new features and improvements.
Additionally, last year it emerged the firm was rebuilding its Maps app with its own data.
Images of the app's old and new versions have been contrasted by digital cartography blogger Justin O'Beirne and show a stark difference in vegetation and detail.
It is worth noting Apple has only gathered its own data in California thus far.
However, it appears the American tech giant is also determined to improve the transit directors and indoor maps that are available on its software.
MacRumours has noted Apple's Feature Availability page for Maps has been updated and insists transit directions are now available across a variety of US territories.
It is also worth noting transit directions on the app exist across Australia, Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden, too.
Apple has also updated the indoor maps that are available with notable airports such as Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL), Newcastle International Airport (NCL), and Milano Linate Airport (LIN) being added.
A number of malls across the world also have indoor maps now, too.
These range from outlets in Japan to Australia.
Indoor plans on Apple Maps provide fans with vital information such as the location of different shops and bathrooms.
Apple's Feature Availability page has a full list of indoor maps that are available.
The new update for Apple Maps appears to demonstrate the firm's commitment to improving the service overall.
However, it is worth noting the software does not currently offer a number of features that are incredibly popular from Google Maps such as Street View.
Street View launched in 2007 and its functionality has since expanded to include the interior of buildings.

Is there any way to map the
A000????.??? filenames in the System Volume Information to their original names, without restoring them?
The reason I ask is that several files in one user's System Volume Information RP1 were infected by a rootkit. Although they've been removed, I'd like to be able to figure out what they were originally.
A0001253.sys and
A0001211.sys are not very helpful names. :)
It happened on two systems, one XP SP2, the other XP SP3.

Things have been so crazy around here, and I haven't had time to get onto the computer and blog about it all. But now that things have quietened down, and my Humans have gone back to their normal routines, I can use the computer and blog to you guys.
(Usually, it's Momma that blinks in photo)
Wow, my first Christmas was so awesome! The night before Christmas, we all went over to my iGrandmother's place (she's the only one in the family with an iPhone) and had a big dinner. Lots of people were there. Both sets of my grandparents, Aunt Jol, Cheryl and Gen-Gen, and even Godma Des has come from Australia to visit! There were lots of presents being exchanged, and lots of food. Pops even went into the kitchen to help iGrandmother prepare some pasta (which I didn't get to eat - hiew!). There was also a giant turkey being served around (which I also didn't get to eat - hiew hiew!).
The humans then went and sang - luckily no bug related music this time (unlike Beetles Night). It was pretty loud, and some of the songs didn't make any sense at all. But everyone looked like they were having a pretty good time.
Oh, and I almost forgot: this night was the first time I got to meet Tails! He was pretty rough with me, and kept jumping on me and trying to pick a fight. Everyone was quite surprised, as Knuckles was the really well-behaved between the three of us! But because of me and Tails and a whole lot of Golden Offerings, we got put into the playpen.
If you look closely in the picture, you can see the Altar of Snack Conjuration. Knuckles has one at his place too!
The party went till pretty late, and I didn't get to bed till really really late, but I did snooze in the car ride home.
The next morning, my Humans woke me up early to go down to the tree to open presents!
Between Momma, Pops, Aunt Mainey and myself, there was lots of presents under the tree. We took turns opening the presents, and I got so much cool stuff! It was so exciting, and I love Christmas!!!
When I opened all my presents, I got a Spongebob cushion, a purple puzzle thing that randomly drops snacks (I haven't quite figured out how to work it yet), a Piglet plushie, lots and lots of snacks, and my favorite:
Christmas is soooo exciting! I can't wait for next year's Christmas. I'm going to go and check out my Bloggy Dog friends' blogs now and see what they all got for Christmas. Merry Christmas again!

Bigg Boss inmates react to Big Brother 'rape'
While some Bigg Boss inmates found the news of the alleged rape on the Brazilian version of reality show Big Brother 'traumatic', some say that they didn't feel safe in the Bigg Boss house either. Read on.tv Updated: Jan 20, 2012 01:59 IST
The incident where a contestant of the Brazilian version of reality show Big Brother was allegedly raped on live TV while she was drunk and unconscious has left Indian show-makers shocked. Producers back home assure the rules here are much stricter, so there's no room for any act of violence on their shows.
"It is shocking. To avoid any untoward happenings, we don't allow any alcohol during the show. There's a zero-tolerance policy against violence and, if there is a complaint by any girl, we will take the strictest action. Also, we only allow a limited display of affection. There is a line that producers needs to draw," says Niret Alva of Miditech, which produces Survivor India.
Rajiv Lakshman of Colosceum Media, producer of Splitsvilla and Masterchef India, says, "We don't allow alcohol or indecency. There are separate rooms for guys and girls, and tight security at night too."
Endemol India, which produces Bigg Boss, adds that security is of utmost concern to them and they would barge in and stop any act of violence. Roadies' producer Raghu Ram says, "The producer who kept shooting for TRPs should be sued."
The ex-inmates of Bigg Boss 5 are also shaken. "It is a traumatic incident. All I can say is, I was looked after with utmost dignity (in Bigg Boss)," says singer Raageshwari. Shradha Sharma, however, says, "I never felt safe in there, That's because if some guy would have behaved indecently, the crew would have take time to come for rescue. Also, Sky and Sid were not decent."

I am part of today's hop, but after collecting a very upset daughter from school, I've had to abandon everything for some "mummy & me" time. I will photograph my card later tonight when she's gone to bed and then upload it. So please bear with me. I am very upset for her at the moment. All I will say is that some parents are really not fit to be parents if they bring their children up to disregard the feelings of their friends. It's not some petty playground squabble either, but something that has been running in the background, unbeknownst to us. I'm not quite sure why human beings can't treat each other with love and respect and consider each other's feelings. I could go on and on about this, but I know it won't change anything, it won't change people. So I will stop there. It just makes me so very sad.

After a recent visit to the Pacific Northwest and a surge of inspiration, we are preparing to unveil some new creations that we hope will continue to push the boundaries of bonsai display. Stay tuned!
We're really excited about the stands we have in the works right now, we'll be posting photos of them on our Instagram soon! We're also excited about our new powder coating system that will give the metal on our stands a beautiful, durable finish. It's been so fun to see our designs transform through the conceptual phases into a tangible product that reflects our vision for the future of American bonsai.
As we continue to research the needs of bonsai artist and develop new prototypes, we are now moving forward with some of our concepts in hopes that we will have some stands for sale on our website within the next couple of weeks. Follow us on Instagram for more updates.

The tragedy in Kaipara Harbour. Eight men dead. The largest maritime disaster in recent times. A senseless, avoidable loss of life.
Children are now without their fathers, mothers without sons, wives and partners without their loved ones, forever. And countless extended family members and friends whose lives have been changed forever because of a decision to tackle a bar in an unforgiving sea, in atrocious conditions.
I've had so many conversations over the weekend about what happened on the Kaipara, and every conversation comes back to one central question - why?
Why did the boat cross the bar and go out into the open sea in the first place, when the weather was forecast to deteriorate that afternoon? And why, when the weather did turn, did the skipper make the decision to try and re-enter the harbour in such a huge swell? They are questions we may never know the answers to.
The skipper, Bill McNatty rang through to Coastguard Radio and asked for a 60 minute watch. That was at 2.02 on Saturday afternoon. He was going to attempt to cross the bar. And then by 3.02, when there was no contact with the Francie, the Coastguard raised the alarm. Local boats in the area couldn't see a vessel. It had simply disappeared.
I live on the same coastline on the West Coast, but I'm a little further south. And my husband and a friend were talking about going out for a surf at Piha on Saturday morning. And Luke said if they were going out, it had to be in the morning because they knew the swell was going to 'spike', as they say. And as we know, the conditions on the West Coast can change dramatically and dangerously in a matter of minutes.
I swim on both coasts - the East and West - but when you're in the water out West, you're so much more aware of the strength and the force of that surf. It is unforgiving. You feel the weight of the water behind every wave and it pulls you back with such a force, when the tide sucks back out again. It's safe to swim out West, you just need to stay between the flags. You need to know someone is always watching.
And I don't know any locals who've died in those waters in the last five years or so that I've lived there. It's day-trippers or tourists who are the most vulnerable. They typically enter the water where it looks calm ... but without realising it they've walked straight into a rip. And that is why the situation in Kaipara is as baffling as it is tragic. It was a locally-skippered boat. Locals know the West Coast. The sea conditions and weather reports dictate everything they do. That a skipper with so much experience attempted to tackle that bar in such a huge swell ... it just doesn't make sense.
One fateful decision. Eight lives lost.
The Coastguard says the Francie was the only vessel to cross the treacherous bar on Friday and Saturday in terrible conditions.
It made it across three times - but not the fourth. Not the fourth time when the Coastguard said the waves breaking on top of the swell would have been close to the height of a two storey house.
And that brings us back to the central question, doesn't it? Why? Why when there was so much at stake, did the Francie try to cross the bar one last time?
The answer to that question may lie with the Francie at the bottom of the sea.

There really isn't a colour which we at Design & Co don't like, however as we absolutely love the richness and warmth being created in many homes by the vibrant jewel tones at the moment, we thought we'd take the opportunity to share the love!
Our favourites are emerald green, sapphire blue, and rich warm amethyst. We've selected our favourite ways to use these colours within interior spaces, and hope you too will fall in love with the opulence which can be created if these colours are used effectively.
The darkness of the charcoal walls and flooring make the bright sapphire blue sofa and blue green of the rug pop, coupled with the beautiful gold accents, this creates a room which is luxuriously timeless.
Did you know that green takes up more space in the spectrum visible to the human eye and it is the dominant colour in the natural. It is therefore a natural choice in interior design and is used a lot as an ideal background colour because we are so used to seeing it everywhere. The emerald in this chair is the perfect choice for this interior space.
Our first choice for the beautifully rich amethyst is from the Caesarstone Concetto collection. This stunning (and surprisingly practical!) surface for your home has the added bonus of being able to be back lit to further enhance the natural beauty of the stone. Call us if you'd like to find out more about using this stunning product in your home.
If you love what you see so far - it's easy to add these rich warm colours to your existing scheme, why not start with the basics - perhaps update a tired chest of drawers with a splash of emerald green like these below.
Another way to add colour is to use a wall covering. There is a great selection of wall coverings available today, and its so easy to update your room with even one feature wall. This stunning grass weave is available from Design & Co via eurowalls, and comes in a variety of colours, including a warm orange, or this beautiful teal blue and silver.
You can also add these beautiful colours with accessories - the Design & Co team can source a wide range of these for you - have a browse through some favourites below, and contact us if we can help with your interior solutions.
