The housing market grew at a sustained rate in 2017. The market is likely to see a slight slowdown in 2018-2019, however. First off, the new Housing Plan, unveiled in late September, is favourable over time via a supply-side shock, plus a four-year extension to the Pinel scheme and the PTZ interest-free loan. Second, the relative acceleration in prices and the continued slow increase in lending rates will eat into households' ability to purchase.
- Recent trends in pre-owned and new-build
- 2016-2017: a highly sustained market
- 2018: slight dip probable
- Focus - Housing reform plan
The supply-side shock measures (deregulation of public and private land ownership, simplification of construction regulations, efforts to discourage abusive legal claims) are designed to ultimately lead to increased housing supply and lower costs, and hence to lower new-build home prices. But the impact will be gradual and probably fairly limited despite the incentives, because municipalities, which deliver building permits, tend to favour commercial real estate construction over building homes.
The refocusing of the PTZ interest-free loan on areas where the housing market is tight has, in the main, been deferred until 2020 and so will have no effect in 2018. The reduction from 40% to 20% of the interest-free loan component in the purchase cost will, however, cause the number of new-build purchases to fall. The Housing Plan's main impact on sales in 2018 concerns the Pinel buy-to-let scheme. Its refocusing will result in a drop in buy-to-let sales of between 6,000-10,000, as zones B2 and C are now excluded from the scheme. Developer new-build sales are thus likely to fall by 5-7% relative to 2016.

Paella Party
Anusasananan, Linda Lau, Schneider, Sara, Sunset
Make an authentic Valencian paella on the barbecue or a quick version on the stove. Take your pick for a lively midsummer meal
* Paella has transcended Spanish borders and earned international fame primarily as an extravagant, saffron-- scented rice and seafood dish cooked in a wide, flat pan. But in its native home of Valencia, paella comes in many forms, from rustic versions based on products from the land to showy variations using the bounty of the sea.
David Llodra grew up eating paella in Alboraya, a small town north of Valencia in a rice-growing region near Albufera Lake. His grandmother made a traditional country-style version, with chicken, rabbit, and beans, over a fire fueled with wood from orange trees. One day, however, having broken her arm, she was unable to cook. Llodra's craving prompted initiative: "Just tell me what to do, and I'll make it," he pleaded. And a new paella master was born.
Llodra himself has emigrated from Spain and now lives in Sonoma, California, with his wife, Katherine, and 1-year-old daughter, Eden. Here, he has adapted his authentic paella to American ingredients and equipment-- charcoal briquets instead of felled and split orange trees, for instance. The natural cycle of a charcoal fire in a kettle barbecue matches the stages of cooking paella: browning the chicken, simmering the broth, and cooking the rice. The even heat also produces a delicious brown crust on the bottom, called socarrat, a highly prized delicacy in a well-made paella. The pans themselves are now easy to find here (see page 138). California medium-grain rice works just as well as more expensive imported Spanish rice. And, in what also seems like a departure but really isn't, Llodra rarely uses expensive saffron. Most Spaniards, he says, actually use a product called colorante, which gives the rice a yellow tinge; we find turmeric a suitable alternative.
Paella cooked as Llodra does it, on the barbecue, makes for a leisurely outdoor party. Prepare all the ingredients beforehand, then cook the paella while guests nibble on tapas and watch the proceedings. If you are uncomfortable with an audience in the yard, however, or want a lighter, contemporary seafood paella, choose our simplified stovetop version on page 138. Either dish makes a great party centerpiece.

We indicated in the beginning of these commentaries on the Messianic Consciousness in Jewish Prophecy that the messages of our Prophets are divided in three parts. These are our separation from God and its consequences, the process of our return to Him -- usually called repentance --, and the Final Redemption as our permanent connection to Him. These are also prophesied the last book of the Torah, and the Creator sent His Prophets to remind us about them. Hence we see the same messages delivered repeatedly through their writings. They are stated in different ways, ranging from a direct and severe language to allegoric and sometimes poetic expressions.
These repetitions are aimed to awaken all levels of consciousness regarding our relationship with God, for these are destined to be united and harmonized towards His Plan called the Messianic Era. Hence the Torah and the Hebrew Scriptures speak to us in many levels and dimensions in order to guide our intellect, discernment, thoughts, mind, feelings, emotions, passions and instincts. Thus we understand why God's messages to us are stated and delivered in many ways and forms. We must grasp God's words to become fully aware that our choices -- not Him -- have taken us where we are here and now.
We have to open our entire consciousness to become aware of who we truly are before the Creator. Thus we realize our way back to Him, His ways and attributes. The fifth chapter of Isaiah's messages focuses again in our bond with God, followed by our separation from Him after choosing ego's fantasies and illusions instead of Love's ways and attributes.
"Let me sing for my well-beloved a song, of my beloved about his vineyard. My beloved has a vineyard in a fruitful hill, my well-beloved had a vineyard in a very fertile hill." (Isaiah 5:1)
It begins praising our beloved Creator for His bond with us, His vineyard. He exalts us in a fruitful hill, which means the awareness of our permanent connection with Him. This fertile hill is Zion, Jerusalem and the Temple. The point here is to realize what we are, have and do in this special place God has exalted. Our connection with Him is something we can't grasp with our discernment or understanding, for being with Him is beyond conception. Hence we only have the references the Creator showed us in His Torah as His attributes. These are the guidelines as the fertile land to fructify in the material world. The fertile hill as the goodness we harvest out of Love's ways and attributes. Hence it is our choice to make the vineyard of our consciousness fructify in the goodness of God's guidance.
"And he dug it, and cleared it of stones, and planted it with the choicest vine, and built a tower in the midst of it, and also hewed out a vat therein; and he looked that it should bring forth grapes, and it brought forth bad grapes." (5:2)
God gave us His Commandments to remove the negative traits and tendencies in consciousness for us to allow only goodness in all facets of life. As we chose we harvest, as we sow we reap. Goodness voices its fair complaint.
"And now, oh inhabitant of Jerusalem and man of Judah, please judge between me and my vineyard." (5:3)
The Prophet addresses us individually as one who dwells in Jerusalem, in the awareness of our permanent connection with God. Also as the individual Jew who has an eternal Covenant with Him. Our consciousness is summoned to discern, to judge from cause and effect. We already know that Love is its own cause and effect, and that Love does not coexist with anything different from its ways and attributes. Then if Love is not the effect, what is the cause? God calls us to reflect and use our judgement as discernment. He speaks to our common sense at the basic level of cause and effect. Then we have to respond for that we think, believe, feel, speak and do.
We have said often that our Chassidic sages call "vessels" all levels and dimensions of consciousness. They wisely describe discernment, mind, emotions, feelings and passions as empty vessels waiting to be filled with what we choose to pour into them. We also know that thought precedes action, though some of us act without thinking first. The idea is to be aware of the traits and qualities about beliefs or ideologies we entertain in our mind, the kind of trends we impose in our emotions, the sensations we imprint in our feelings, and the expressions we give to our passions. All becomes a matter of choice.
"What could I have been done more to my vineyard, that I have not done in it? Why, when I looked for it to yield grapes, did it yield bad ones?" (5:4)
The Creator makes us accountable for our choices because we indeed are a matter of cause and effect. The lesson is about choosing Love as the cause, for we know that Love is the effect. Love removes what is different, opposite or against its ways and attributes. In order to make Love rule and prevail in all levels of consciousness, first we must return to God's Love. We must yearn for His Love hard enough to make us return to Him, His ways and attributes. He tells us through the Prophet that He fulfills His promise of Final Redemption, as long as we begin allowing our Love to remove what is not necessary in our consciousness. Making Love's ways and attributes prevail over ego's fantasies and illusions.
"Now I will tell you what I will do to my vineyard. I will take away its hedge, and it will be eaten up. I will break down its wall of it, and it will be trampled down. And I will lay it waste: it shall not be pruned, nor dug; but there shall come up briers and thorns: I will also command the clouds that they don't rain upon it." (5:5-6)
The Final Redemption in Judaism is about the complete removal of the negative trends in human consciousness, and also in the material world. We must understand it as an individual and collective process we have to initiate. As we say "let there be peace and let it begin with me", we also let Love and the goodness of its ways and attributes begin to manifest in all levels of consciousness. Historically we have not allowed this total Redemption for a reason of choice. The Creator gave us free will to choose what is right and good, not the opposite. The Torah invites us to understand evil as a reference and not a choice, hence we are commanded to choose goodness as the blessing, as life.
"For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah the plant of His delight. And He looked for justice, but behold violence; for righteousness, but behold a cry." (5:7)
As we said above, the fertile and fruitful hill is our connection with God, and we as Israel are planted by Him. We are the other end of this bond in the material world, His delight on Earth, for we are commanded by Him and destined to make prevail His righteousness and justice. These two summarize His Torah as the entire instruction to eliminate violence and suffering from the world. God has honored Israel to make righteousness and justice prevail out of the goodness of His Love. Once more we must understand our moral and ethical imperatives not only as the outcome of fairness to do what is right, but the outcome of Love. God loves and delights in justice and righteousness, for these come from His Love, hence we honor Him by making our Love the motivation and the cause of justice and righteousness.
In this context we the Chosen People are accountable to Love as the material manifestation of God's Love. The rest of this chapter reiterates that we are accountable for our permanent connection with the Creator. Through the Prophet, He points out the negative trends in our consciousness that dispossess and oppress the weak among our people. Selfishness, greed, indifference, cruelty and indolence devastate the goodness of Love, leaving behind misery and suffering. The vanity and futility of ego's fantasies and illusions that call good evil and evil good. God reaffirms time and again that evil and wickedness are wiped as He fulfills His promise to redeem us from them.
God's anger is recalled. Again we understand it as the anger we experience as the result of frustration in the emptiness left by ego's fantasies and illusions. Anger is what we feel out of our separation from God's Love. There is no wrath in God but what He tells us about our wrath, to make us return to His ways and attributes. Our anger and frustration become the trigger to our way back to God. The pain and misery we suffer with the outcome of our negative choices hit our feelings and emotions, filling them with anger, rage, frustration, depression, indolence and indifference. These are the enemies that threaten our consciousness and repel our Essence and true identity.
The message in this chapter can be summarize saying that when we don't care for our vineyard -- the goodness God has planted in us --, and embrace the negative trends in consciousness, these turn into the enemies that seek our destruction. This happened to us in the times of our Prophets, and we assimilate it now in our current times as well. Our enemies increase against us as we allow negative trends to take over our consciousness.
"And they shall roar against them in that day like the roaring of the sea; and if one look unto the land, behold darkness and distress, and the light is darkened in the skies thereof." (5:30)

The continuing impunity of top health care leaders only appears to encourage future bad behavior.

Today, Google have a front-page doodle celebrating the 66th anniversary of the Roswell incident in 1947 which led to many alien-related conspiracy theories. The logo becomes a point-and-click adventure game. Naturally I think this is a great idea since I love adventure games. In adition to the conspiracy theories, the Roswell incident has served as inspiration for many science fiction stories. I thought it would be fun to look at just a couple of them.
Star Trek Deep Space Nine – Little Green Men
Without doubt, my favourite Roswell-related stories is the Star Trek Deep Space Nine episode Little Green Men. According to this story, the crashed ship at Roswell had been thrust back through time from the 24th century. Its occupants were three Ferengi – Quark, Rom and Nog (plus a stow-away changeling named Odo). This was a blatantly comedic episode – one of the funniest in the series and a personal favourite of mine. There was lots of laugh-out-loud moments as the Ferengi (considered ethically backward by humans in their own time) make observations on 20th century humanity.
Stargate SG1 / Atlantis
According to the series Stargate SG1, the Roswell aliens were members of a race known as the Asgard. These same aliens actually came to earth in the form of Norse gods during ancient times. The first asgard that our heros meet is none other than Thor himself. My favourite asgard character was Hermiod who featured in a number of episodes of Stagate Atlantis. He was the resident asgard on the starship Daedalus. When he disagreed with human characters, he would often mutter to himself in his own language (alien swear words?)
Indianna Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
In the fourth Indianna Jones film, the occupants of the Roswell crash were not actually aliens in the traditional sense, they were Interdimensional beings, not that this makes any great difference to the story. Say what you will about the introduction of aliens into Indy, but connecting these creatures into Roswell was actually quite a clever move. Indianna Jones as a character was alive in 1947 and would have been a logical choice for the government to call on as an expert consultant.
So what about you? What's your favourite Roswell-inspired sci-fi story?

John Stott by Julia Cameron was published by Christian Focus Publications in March 2012 and is our 20306th best seller. The ISBN for John Stott is 9781845507879.
All the books in this series although written for young people are very readable small biographies for people of all ages. Small? Well small in the number of pages and size of the book but huge in the content!
I have read a fuller biography written for adults, but truly, if you want to know about this remarkable man, then you can do no better than to read this Trail Blazer.
Julia Cameron starts with some delightful stories of John Stott's early childhood, family was very important throughout his life, school days and his meeting with Eric Nash (Bash) who had such a strong influence on his lifelong commitment to students and young graduates. Then she describes his college years and his life at All Souls, Langham Place, London, from where he accepted prayerfully many opportunities for preaching and teaching worldwide. He wrote many books and being a firm believer in having enough but no more, gave away most of his royalties. His bolt hole was 'The Hookses' bought as a derelict farmhouse in Pembrokeshire, slowly developed, largely by his own and his friends labour, into a comfortable retreat which he lent to any who needed it.
As his influence grew, he was called to do more and more until he employed Frances Whitehead as his secretary and she became his lifelong friend and support. One of the many friends we are told about in this book.
Uncle John, as he was known to many, travelled widely, bird watching at every opportunity, a wise, very lovable, humble man who had an influence for the good on so many. There is much more in this book to learn about him. Do read it!

Their home is found in around 1 square km of reclaimed land, with an estimated 16,500 families living on it in abject poverty. The average family size is mum, dad and 4 to 6 children, with extremes where families have more than 10 children. The lowest possible population estimate where the Pedder's live is about 125,000 people. Missions to Mark and Christine is all about discipleship, church planting, educational development, birthing programs, career coaching and thought development and believe Salvation is total transformation.
You can connect and engage more with the Pedder's via their blog.
URGENT UPDATE: Parola Fire
The fire that swept through Parola on Tuesday 7th February, 2017 has had a devasting effect on this community. It is estimated that up to 3,000 families lost their homes and everything that they had. With an average family size being 8 people, there are a lot of people requiring immediate assistance. Their names have been counted and registered by local authorities and many of them are staying nearby the burnt out slum area or at various other nearby locations, but they have very little.
Mark and Christine Pedder's heart is to start a rice distribution program for the next few weeks to assist the families that have been affected by the Parola Fire.
One 50 kg sack of rice for AUD$50 will feed 4 families for up to a week, AUD$100 will feed 8 families for a week, AUD$200 will feed 16 families for a week and so on.

Accountability in politics is possible only when the governed obtain fair, unbiased information about the government's track record and future plans. The federal government preaches accountability, but is being only selectively transparent about its own spending activities. In addition to being bad public policy, this opacity does a disservice to democracy.

Westmoreland Web Site Dedication
Westmoreland District
Web Site Dedication
In 2002, Terry Fethe developed the first district website for the Westmoreland District by launching the WestmorelandDistrict.com website as a Wood Badge project. What began as one man's contribution to his district became a vital communication tool to scouters across Northwest Alabama and the council. In 2010 the council website, 1bsa.org, became the official host of district websites providing every district a place to publish their website where it could be easily integrated into the council site.
Terry passed away in 2002 shortly after the website's successful launch. The Westmoreland site is dedicated to his memory. In 2007, Terry's brother Harold, an Eagle Scout himself, came across the dedication noted on the original site's homepage and the following is a result of his efforts to pay tribute to his brother's life.

THQ Stock Plunges as Video Game Maker Restructures
Titles based on movies and TV shows for children are out, but THQ will still develop "South Park: The Game."
Shares of struggling THQ, a company once known best for its video games based on Pixar, DreamWorks Animation and Nickelodeon properties, were freefalling 25 percent in after-hours trading on Thursday to 57 cents. Three years ago they traded for $25.
The company, which recently said it would stop making console games for kids, reported a net loss Thursday of $56 million in its fiscal third quarter compared to a $15 million loss in the same quarter a year ago. Revenue dipped 3 percent to $305 million.
PHOTOS: THR's 2012 Digital Power 50
The company's latest disaster is the uDraw line of games, which knocked $33 million from its operating income during the quarter. THQ said Thursday it "has no further commitments or plans to manufacture uDraw hardware."
The company's restructuring, some of it laid out Wednesday and Thursday, includes laying off 240 people and the halving of CEO Brian Farrell's salary for a year, from $718,500 previously down to $359,250.
The company intends on slashing $160 million from its expenses annually, primarily by exiting the formerly lucrative kids' licensed console games category.
THQ said Thursday it "will focus on its core game franchises and digital initiatives."
STORY: New Research Shows Gamers Playing More on Mobile Devices Than Consoles and PCs
Successful sellers during the quarter were Saints Row: The Third and WWE '12. The company also said it is developing South Park: The Game.
Also reporting quarterly earnings Thursday was competitor Take-Two Interactive Software, which said net income fell to $14 million from $41 million a year ago. Revenue dropped 29 percent to $236 million.
Take-Two's results beat Wall Street's expectation on the bottom line though not on the top line and shares were climbing 2 percent in after-hours trading.

LIG is an acronym for "Life in God – Lewe in God". Eight years ago the Holy Spirit pointed out to us the desperate need of the young people of Kleinmond and surrounding areas, for the Father's love. He promptly backed it up with scripture – Eph 4:18-19.
With no real clue what to do, yet armed with God-breathed passion for the young people and the knowledge that it was His will, we started out on this exiting journey, where we as the founders and leaders of LiG, changed just as much as the young people touched with God's love.
We started out with 15 young people, but our hearts yearned for the opportunity to share the gospel with more young people. Our God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above what we can ask or think – and that is exactly what He did. Within a period of about a month, the numbers jumped from 15 to 150. We were gloriously in trouble – suddenly overwhelmed by the number of children as and still not sure how to serve them best.
'…do not grieve for the joy of the Lord is your strength.' ~ Neh 8:10
God is faithful and He provided us with a strategy, volunteers and resources to make a difference in their lives. We soon realized that our involvement in the children's lives will have to be more than preaching the gospel if we want to see the truth thought actually manifest in their lives. We had to engage them spiritually, mentally, physically and emotionally. This revelation was once again powerfully backed up by the Lord when our senior pastor, Dr. Allan Bagg, started teaching on whole life prosperity. So many people go unfulfilled through life, never knowing the fullness of what Jesus has accomplished on the cross.
'…You (God) have kept your promise because you are righteous…' Neh 9:8
This revelation lead us to establish an education initiative, with the aim of rectifying sub-standard literacy and numeracy skills, provide remedial tutoring and after school care, as well as to provide bursaries to top schools for promising candidates.
Based on the credits earned through the year, a group of young leaders is selected once a year to participate in a leadership development camp. Most of the leaders produced by these camps are also incorporated in the yearly Holiday Club. The Holiday Club provides an awesome training ground and excellent personal growth opportunities to the young leaders. They reach out to approximately 400 children per day in song, dance, games and of course, the Word. This is also a powerful way in which the leaders give back to the community they come from.
We also engage with the young people through various clubs, such as Horse riding, surfing and hiking.
However, LiG's primary point of contact with the young people remains the Friday night workshops where children from age 8 and up are presented with life skill training from bible in a variety of age appropriate ways, which includes time for healthy socialization. This time is essential to establish and affirm relationships of trust with the young people, without which our ministry would be much more difficult. A lot of the change taking place in the lives of the young people is a result of patient one-on-one mentoring. The aim of the variety of activities is to attract as many children as possible through meeting them at their point on interest, which, if prayerfully and wisely managed, will give Jesus access to their point of need.
At this point LiG needs vehicles that are efficient and of suitable size to facilitate reaching out the young people in the many ways pointed out. We are also looking at property to establish a Youth Centre to serve as base of operations and to increase our effectiveness in the lives of the young people.
Vision Young people of integrity, economically empowered and enabled to make morally sound decisions regarding their families, their own lives, the community where they live and the natural environment
* Restoring the youth's hope in the possibility of a successful and fulfilling future; * Utilizing the abundant and varied skills, talents and gifts of individuals and organizations to bring about behavioral change in the youth; * Providing the youth with knowledge, tools and skills to make morally sound decisions; * Building integrity and character; * Building the youth's capacity to participate in the economic development of the community; * Fostering wholesome parent/child relationships; * Encouraging participation by parents in the lives of their children; * Fostering love and respect for the environment over which they are stewards
* Remedial intervention to rectify sub-standard academic performance; * Initiating a sustainable scholarship program to provide greater opportunity for learners to develop and pursue their talents and gifts; * Leadership development camps and events; * Social and life skills training programs; * Establishing a youth centre as an essential tool towards bringing about the envisaged positive behavioral change; * Training youth mentors living in the community to assist the youth in dealing with life's issues; * Training youth leaders in a variety of outdoor activities to encourage and enable the young people to participate in wholesome extra mural activities; * Providing specialized sports development opportunities; * Introducing the youth to the concept of serving in the community; * Promoting in the youth a love for the environment we live in by involving them in projects protecting and enhancing our environment

Be Informed of these Various Attributes and Types of an Industrial Vacuum Cleaner
It is a fact that dirt and grime have a very crucial impact in our lives every day. We are perpetually surrounded with various matters and working conditions where particles and dusts happen. It is of this concern that the important role of industrial vacuum cleaners would come in since these equipment can aid us in picking up dirt and dust from our surroundings.
Since dust and dirt are everywhere in our home, offices, warehouses and other work places, it is important to choose the right industrial vacuum cleaner to do the job. We also have to take note that vacuum cleaners are designed with different features that will enable them to conduct cleaning based on the specific requirements.
Some of the main types of vacuum cleaning systems that are available in the market will be described here and each can meet different applications from the other.
Presenting the first kind of industrial vacuum cleaning system which is the stand-up type. Designed for regular use, these kinds of cleaners are efficient, durable with a combine power for convenient use, and have a certain degree of mobility and flexibility.
Going to the next type of industrial vacuum cleaning system is teh ride-on. This type of vacuuming systems is designed specifically to take care of large industrial scale of jobs. Industrial sectors with large complexes and warehouses would be served well with this type of cleaner since it can cover large spaces.
The next type of industrial vacuum cleaners is the wet and dry type which is of very high quality standards and performance. Debris, wastes, dirt of all shapes and sizes can be easily picked up by this extremely powerful vacuum cleaning system. Aside from that, they have large waste tanks that can accommodate large waste capacity so much so that they do not need to be emptied regularly.
The next type of vacuum cleaning system is the one that is generally used in residential applications called the upright system. With enough power, this type of cleaner can also deal with large amount of wastes as well. There are some attributes that you must take into consideration when choosing your vacuum cleaner in order to get its topmost performance, especially the market is offering a lot of range for these vacuum cleaners.
Among the features that you should look for in your vacuum cleaner are a motor with a matching vacuum producer able to produce vacuum level in the water column above 60 inches, has a bag equalizer where plastic bag can be fixed in the dirt container thus easy for dirt to be removed, has a big canister for storage, with a differential pressure gauge for primary and secondary filters, and a vacuum producer for inlet safety filter.

***I suspect that this may turn into a slightly ranty post, so stop reading now if you don't like my moaning***
After being rejected by another running brand earlier this week (more on this later), I have been thinking about what makes a "better" running blogger…
I have concluded that having more twitter followers does not automatically make a person a better blogger. By only working with bloggers with large number of followers on twitter, I genuinely believe that brands are missing out.
Brands only appear to work with London/SE based bloggers. Guess what running brands, there are loads of runners living outside of London. It has reached the point where I can predict which group of London-based bloggers will be sent the same kit to review. The group never seems to change which is a shame. It would be awesome to see brands working with new bloggers, outside of London.
I have also concluded that, as a runner and not a healthy eating obsessive, the most "popular" running blogs are not necessarily the most enjoyable running blogs. After getting bored with the endless product reviews, race reviews and class reviews, I stopped reading most of the London-based blogs. No offence, but in my personal opinion, the majority of these blogs do not represent the experiences of runners in the rest of the UK.
Recently I have read some seriously misleading product reviews in blogs. By misleading I am referring to the subject of non disclosure. Although I am reluctant to name and shame, this is probably one of the most misleading posts I have seen. At the start of the post the blogger states that she bought the items, however, towards the very end of the blog it becomes clear that the items were actually provided by SportsShoes. I really dislike being misled by bloggers.
Incidentally I applied to work with SportsShoes as a product reviewer and was unsuccessful. I pitched myself as a new(ish) running blogger who had not worked with a major running brand before (I viewed this as a positive). Unfortunately, my application to blog for SportsShoes did not even receive a response. As a regular user of SportsShoes this was disappointing.
Although I fully understand that a brand can pick and choose who they work with (at the end of the day runner bloggers provide cheap advertising), I was disappointed to not even get a response. In future I will not be purchasing my running gear and trainers from SportsShoes.
So please make it clear when you are writing a glowing review of a product you were sent for free. Also please check for spelling mistakes and typos. The occasional spelling mistake and typo is fine, these things happen. A post that is full of spelling mistakes and typos is not acceptable, especially when you are working with a brand. If in doubt, please ask someone to check your post before you hit submit.
By the way the correct spelling is definitely (not defiantly or definately).
As for my most recent and not very positive experience of working with a brand, events earlier this week reinforced my opinion that brands are only interested in working with bloggers with a large number of twitter followers. I have added Flip Belt to my list of brands who are apparently only interested in working with runners with a large social media presence.

Grantham court: Prison officer grabbed knife from man outside her home
A man carrying a bread knife for his own security was tackled by a prison officer in her own driveway.
Matthew John Harrison, 41, of Sycamore Drive, Sleaford, admitted possessing a knife blade in a public space on April 17.
Prosecuting, Daniel Pietryka said Harrison was in Derwent Road in Grantham at 7pm. He was seen entering a driveway and the householder came out to challenge him.
He shouted "I have a knife" twice. The woman, a serving prison officer, saw the handle of the bread knife sticking out of Harrison's waistband and she took it from him.
Mr Pietryka said Harrison was shouting to warn people he had a knife so they would not hurt themselves.
Simon Cobb, defending, said Harrison was 'foolishly' carrying the knife for his own protection.
Mr Cobb said Harrison's partner had got into debt and was being 'pursued vigorously'. He said: "They have seen him and followed him in a car. He ran into a garden to hide and the occupant of that address challenged him. He has not taken the knife out of his waistband and he has warned them, not as a threat, but as a warning not to injure themselves."
Mr Cobb said Harrison was not in a public place at the time, although the charge was possessing a knife in a public place. He said the issue was whether this was a dangerous circumstance. He said: "He has not drawn the knife and it has been taken off him."
Magistrates decided to adjourn the case until May 23 for a report. They granted Harrison unconditional bail.

Prosciutto and cheese bites
• 600ml whole milk
• 2 cloves
• 1/2 onion
• 1 fresh or dried bay leaf
• 80g unsalted butter, plus extra for the pan
• 80g plain flour
• 1 tbsp English mustard powder
• 200g Comté cheese or good aged Cheddar, grated, plus extra for the pan
• Rough Puff Pastry
• 12 slices of prosciutto or Bayonne ham
Put the milk, cloves, onion and bay leaf into a saucepan and slowly bring to the boil. Remove from the heat and set aside to infuse. Melt the butter in a saucepan, then whisk in the flour and mustard powder. Cook on a low heat for a few minutes, then strain the milk and gradually add it to the roux. Cook for 5–6 minutes, whisking all the time, until the flour has been cooked out. Add the cheese, mix well and leave to cool. Preheat the oven to 190ÆC/375ÆF/Gas 5. Roll out the pastry into a large rectangle, 30 x 40cm. Spread the cooled cheese mixture over the entire surface of the pastry. Lay the ham on top, covering the whole area. Tightly roll the pastry up from the long side into a log and cut into slices about 4cm thick. Brush a large ovenproof frying pan or oven dish with butter and sprinkle with some more grated cheese. Fit the buns into the pan, leaving about 1cm space between each. Sprinkle more cheese over the top and bake in the oven for 25 minutes, until golden brown. (makes 30-40)
Savoury tomato and olive palmiers
• 8 sun-dried tomatoes, drained and finely chopped
• 100g tomato purée
• 1/2 quantity Rough Puff Pastry
• 200g pitted green olives, finely chopped
Mix the sun-dried tomatoes and tomato purée together and set aside. Roll the pastry out to a large square 3mm thick and cut into 4 rectangular strips. Spread the tomato mixture onto the pastry rectangles to cover entirely, and sprinkle on the chopped green olives. Roll the short side of each strip in towards the centre, keeping it tight as you roll. Roll the other short side in towards the centre in the same way, so they meet. Press the two sides together, then wrap in cling film and put in the freezer to set. Preheat the oven to 180ÆC/350ÆF/Gas 4. Remove the frozen pastry and leave to thaw for 10 minutes, then cut into 1-cm thick slices. Put on an unlined baking tray and cook for 15 minutes, flipping them over halfway through the cooking. Remove from the baking tray immediately and serve. (makes about 20)
Lamb ragoût with fresh pasta
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 2 onions, cut into small dice
• 2 celery stalks, cut into small dice
• 1 carrot, cut into small dice
• 3 garlic cloves, chopped
• 2 fresh or dried bay leaves
• 1 thyme sprig
• 1kg lamb shoulder, cut into small dice
• 1 tbsp tomato purée
• 125ml white wine
• 500ml lamb stock
• Pasta dough, cut into pappardelle
• Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
• Chopped flat-leaf parsley, to serve
• Grated Parmesan, to serve
Heat the olive oil in a large casserole dish, add the onions, celery and carrot and sweat until translucent. Add the garlic, bay leaves and thyme. Add the lamb meat, season well with salt and pepper, sweat, then add the tomato purée. Cook for a few minutes, then deglaze with the wine. Add the lamb stock and simmer for 3 hours, covered, until reduced, adding, more stock or water if it gets too dry as it cooks. Cook the pasta in boiling, salted water until al dente. Drain and add to the ragoût with parsley and Parmesan. (serves 4-6)

Recyclable and compostable materials
Post-consumed products from paper, raw or plastic materials can be recovered, processed and recycled for reuse in various industries.
Recycling is a process to change waste materials into new products while preventing the waste of potentially useful materials, reducing energy usage, reducing air pollution (from incineration) and water pollution (from landfilling). For example, used office paper would be converted into new office paper, or used foamed polystyrene into new polystyrene.
Composting which is the process of recycling organic waste materials into a rich soil known as compost, returns nutrients back into the soil in order for the cycle of life to continue. Finished compost looks like soil–dark brown, crumbly and smells like a forest floor.

text: The Readymen just returned from a whirlwind nationwide tour. Despite the fact that a lot of stuff went wrong, they still had a good time, played a bunch of good shows {and bad}, made some new friends and renewed some old friendships. This is the list of people that the readymen would like to thank, and why. If one of the bands is playing in your area, do yourself a favor and see them. If you know any of these people, count yourself lucky. If you're not on this list, don't feel bad - it's being constantly updated as band members probe alchohol fogged memories.

Remember Halloween back in the day?
You and your friends would tromp around your block.
On the doors of your neighbors you would knock,
And older people would party and play
Until Facebook and Twitter came our way.
Before, only the famous' costumes could shock.
But now, even you shouldn't dress like a cock.
Your fellows will take pictures; "Selfie," they'll say.
That picture could go viral on reddit;
Your mom or your boss could discover that shot.
You must be careful with your phone on Halloween night.
That "harmless" Instagram could come back to bite you a bit;
You may have stopped looking so hot.
With social media and smartphones, Halloween can truly fright.

1. With all three boys in CAP now... I get some quiet Tuesday evenings and the occasional Saturday or weekend. They were all off volunteering at the Heritage Flight Museum today, and having a great time.
2. Lucky them, they get lunch there. Which means chili, three times in two days. I made a big pot last night for dinner with enough for leftovers tonight, and guess what they were served for lunch at HFM? Lucky them, but maybe not-so-lucky me, know what I'm saying? (Chili for dinner, musical program to follow...)
3. Lucky me, I've been quilting all afternoon. Getting back in the saddle and making progress on my larger version of this,
Inspiration, here.
4. I can tell the grapes back by the garage are ripe. Guess how? Purple bird poop all over the driveway. Awesome.
5. The boys are growing into young men right before my eyes. So why can't they eat without dropping food on the floor? Seriously, we have to sweep after nearly every meal. You?
6. But they're great helpers. Had friends to dinner last night and the boys jumped right in with the clean-up afterwards. Hallelujah.
7. I'm trying really hard not to start any new projects until I finish the aqua bed quilt. But, oh, it's soooo tempting to do some fall sewing!
Must. Finish. Bed quilt. First.
You? Do you have five projects going at once? Or finish one before you start the next?
8. Mending doesn't count. I guess I have done some other sewing. I've fixed the hole in Tate's shorts, hemmed up Gunnar's BDU pants, since he took three steps before they started moving (I guess there's no point in asking why the Air Force doesn't have uniforms in children's sizes), and - much to Wyatt's joy - sewed his new flight wings insignia (which he earned with his solo flight, last month) onto his BDUs. But that isn't exactly fun sewing. BDU's are tough like denim, and some of the patches go on the chest pockets. I've been 'cheating' and sewing right through the pocket so I can do it on the machine. They've got lots of other pockets :D
9. One of the bunnies went to his/her new home yesterday. Friends from church took George aka Fluff Daddy aka Agnes (as in, He's so fluffy I'm gonna die!) Time to put the others on craigslist.
10. And, it's time to go pull dinner together. Hurray for leftovers :D

Clean floors must be overrated. :p
Ours should only be half as dirty with half the kids gone, right?? ;-) ha ha ha ha ha
But many happy sighs for progress on your quilting project!

We have to sweep after every meal, too. Or we could just leave the mess for the ants to clean up. I prefer sweeping :-)

J.P. Morgan
For the third year running, J.P. Morgan has been voted the Global Bank for Supply Chain Finance. "We are truly delighted to be recognised once again by the TMI readership" commented Jeremy Shaw, Regional Trade Executive for J.P. Morgan. "We are continually working at delivering practical answers so that our clients might benefit from real working capital optimisation".
J.P. Morgan has been continually building on their unrivalled capabilities in this area. The firm is still the only bank that can deliver solutions across the entire financial and physical supply chain. "It's a key differentiator for us" remarked Shaw. "Our clients are faced with unprecedented challenges. With the suite of capabilities at our disposal, we have worked as their partner by helping them look at ways to increase efficiency and/or mitigate risk throughout the supply chain".
Ten years ago J.P. Morgan took the decision to start integrating their transaction banking activities because they had product areas that were providing solutions to treasurers, purchasing managers and CFOs in a discrete manner. The decision to consolidate product companies within the treasury services business, such as payment and collections, trade, supply chain finance, cards and liquidity management has allowed the firm to offer a significantly broader set of products which can be bundled and provided to clients today. "This is something that we've been building on consistently over a number of years. Important, however, is to have people that understand these processes intimately and can therefore discuss with the client how they can help overcome their challenges. Our clients don't split up chunks of their supply chain, so why should we?"
BNP Paribas
With the growing complexity of today's global supply chain, BNP Paribas brings together data and transactions from trade and payments to free up working capital and to achieve value throughout the supply chains. We offer fully flexible cash management and financial supply chain solutions to adapt to local practices. For instance in a number of countries in Southern Europe, BNP Paribas offers e-invoicing solutions fully integrated with e-banking tools, that enable Corporates to improve their management of payment transactions and reconciliations between commercial and financial data.
We are also a strong player in SEPA and, with Fortis Bank, are both committed to innovative solutions for the future such as SEPA compliant direct debit and our new global card acquiring platform to support clients in enhancing their receivables management.
SEB continues to invest heavily in delivering service excellence across the markets in which it has expertise, in particular the Nordics, Germany and Central & Eastern Europe. Now established as the bank of choice for corporates headquartered in, or operating in these regions, this Award is once again a statement of client support and confidence in SEB, and a validation of the innovation for the bank is renowned.
"Developing an integrated approach to the financial supply chain, including cash and trade, to deliver value to the corporation is a pivotal element of SEB's strategy. We have devised the SEB Corporate Financial Value Chain™ which is a structured approach to identifying, prioritising and delivering improvements to financial processes, releasing working capital and creating additional value. Many of our clients have experienced dramatic improvements in process efficiency, liquidity and risk management by working with SEB in this way. We are delighted by these Awards which recognise the benefit that our clients continue to derive from SEB's innovative approach to enhancing value across the financial supply chain."

Recently we have added general purpose single component building adhesive under the brand name of PERMA MASTER FIX and a very high quality building coating material under the brand name of PERMA UNI COAT, and an anti-carbonation coating for the walls of parking lot buildings under the brand name of PERMA FLEX COAT to name a few.
What are the advantages of products offered by your company?
Over the years our products have established performance in the most critical situations on highly demanding sites. This is due to our untiringly dedicated R&D professionals and the highly trained application teams spread all over the country. Our quality control and quality assurance standards match the best in this field in the world.
What is your opinion about the recent performance of construction chemicals industry in India?
From early 1980s this industry started organizing itself in the Indian construction industry. Prior to this period tiling in new construction was limited to bathrooms and toilets. There were only a couple of brands of glazed tiles available in the market. But early 80s saw new tiling companies entering the market with a wide range of sizes and shades. The architect took advantage of this and designed floors, walls and facades with tile finishing. This followed with many building changing their mosaic tiles with ceramic finishes. These activities obviously needed special tile fixing adhesives and colored tile joint fillers to bring out the best out of a tiling jobs and at the same time ensuring the safety of secure fix. Construction chemicals industry responded positively in providing these new products demanded by the construction industry totally indigenously.
During later part of 80s a big canal project in the western India required huge quantities of curing compound as per ASTM standards as specified by the World Bank standards. Several construction chemicals companies came forward and indigenously produced the curing compound as per ASTM (The American Standards) which was tested by the several reputed laboratories for its conformity with the standards and used on the project.
During early 90s Konkan Railways project started to establish a railway link between Mumbai and Goa. This required several huge bridges of pre-stressed concrete to be constructed. With the Distance between concrete making at the batching plant and concrete pouring at the site increasing there was a need of a highly retarded concrete. The specification called for a synthetic concrete admixture based on melamine formaldehyde condensate. Again the construction chemicals industry stood up to the challenge and indigenously produced the admixture for its utility on the entire project.
These projects and experiences gave the professionals in the Indian Construction Chemicals Industry the right confidence and enthusiasm in making new products indigenously suiting to our environmental conditions. There have been many such critical requirements on various projects such as Metro Rail, Sea Link, Tunneling Very High-rise buildings etc. On all such occasions the industry came up with indigenous solutions saving millions of dollars worth of foreign exchange.
This industry is highly knowledge based industry. Professionals of this line are highly educated and disciplined. They understand that their responsibility towards providing critical solutions to the civil engineering industry is like the responsibility of a doctor treating a patient. Their outlook towards critical
civil engineering requirement is more technical rather than based on just business priorities. There is a good understanding between the professionals of most of the companies who are in this business of construction chemicals irrespective of whether they belong to a multinational company or an indigenous Indian company. There exists an association under the name "CONSTRUCTION CHEMICALS MANUFACTURERS ASSOCIATION" or CCMA. Under this association all the members/professionals meet regularly once in a month and discuss various issues of interest to the industry.
Can you highlight the prime growth drivers for this segment?
As there is continuous need for food so also there always is need for better shelter and infrastructure. This keeps putting pressure on the construction industry. Construction industry looks for solutions to these growing problems in constructions chemicals. Construction chemicals manufacturers keep discovering and providing those solutions to the construction industry regularly. Growth of this segment is tied up with the growth of construction industry itself.
Please highlight your company's current performance and growth prospects.
Perma has been showing steady performance and growth ever since its formation. This is due to its wide range of products which go not only in new construction but also in repair and rehabilitation of old structures. After a spell of recession the construction industry is looking forward to a healthy growth. This gives better prospects for our growth in near future.

The Famished Road by Ben Okri.
A Spiritual Guru may take reams of paper or hours of discourse to say something so profound, which a fiction writer has done so simply. Here is another beautiful example:
"D'you know what happens when you hurt people?" Ammu said. "When you hurt people, they begin to love you less. That's what careless words do. They make people love you a little less."
The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy.
These kinds of sparks do elevate our spirits. And, they also spur us to dust up the characters idling in our heads and to weave stories around them.
I've no illusions that anything I put on the paper will be worth seeing the light of a printing press at least for the next twenty years. By then I hope to acquire some decent skills of being a fiction writer.
But one needs to spell out such grand missions when life seems to be stuck in a black hole.

The trailer for "Spotlight," starring Michael Keaton, Mark Ruffalo, Liev Schreiber and Rachel McAdams, was released today. The film tells the story of the Boston Globe investigation into systematically ignored abuses in the Catholic Church. The investigation ultimately exposed widespread concealed abuse around the world and earned the Globe a Pulitzer for public service journalism in 2003.
The intense trailer features lots of stormy views of Cambridge and Boston, so it's safe to say you can play Boston filming locale bingo while watching "Spotlight." The film is scheduled for a November release, meaning it's arriving right in time for award season consideration, and everyone knows how much the Academy loves dramatic true crime stories. Maybe Michael Keaton can continue his "Birdman" Oscar luck with this one.
What do you think? Are Keaton/McAdams/Schreiber the new Redford/Hoffman, and this is our new "All the Presidents' Men"?

Nothing is friendlier to reading aloud than classic storytelling and the vivid narration of colorful events. Author Mary Stewart has again mined the rich vein of Arthurian Britain for the magical events of this tale. Reader Richard Mitchley is pleasantly effortless to listen to as he deftly follows the pace and mood of the text without attempting to place a personal stamp on it--a cultivated reader, he focuses on craft, rather than display. He differentiates character voices lightly but delivers every word of dialogue with such naturalness and conviction that the listener never feels anything is missing. This is genre entertainment that does what it does "excellent well." J.N. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: JUN/JUL 98]

It's always disheartening to see the same misinformation peddled over and over again. I guess it's a tenant these days that if you say it enough times, whether it's right or wrong, people will start to believe it.
So it is with fracking.
The environmental left (no, that's not redundant) has made opposition to fracking a rite of passage. Just utter the word and you get cries of anguish. You don't have to understand it. You just have to oppose it. At a recent political gathering, I overheard one leftie say to another, "Fracking? We're against that, right?"
Fracking is back in the news again because several state legislators, cajoled by hysterical environmentalists, have proposed bills that would ban the procedure in Florida. SB 462/HB 237 would prohibit so-called fracking.
Not surprisingly, we're told of this through an overlay of misinformation. A Naples Daily News reporter recently wrote, "Fracking is a general term for various ways oil companies pump chemicals into a well to either dissolve or break up underground rock formations to stimulate oil or gas production."
Wrong. Fracking isn't pumping chemicals into a well. Fracking is a popular shorthand for hydraulic fracturing, pumping water under very high pressure into an oil- or gas-bearing formation. Slurried sand, part of the injection fluid, holds open the fractured rock to ease recovery of the trapped hydrocarbons. Chemicals make up less than 1% of the mix.
For those interested in learning about fracking, I recommend two terrific books -- Gregory Zuckerman's The Frackers and Gary Sernovitz's The Green and the Black.
The indisputable fact is hydrolytic fracturing, coupled with horizontal drilling, has transformed global energy, revitalizing old fields and opening up new ones that were previously unprofitable. It has freed the U.S. from energy dependence on the unstable Middle East. And it has benefitted the environment by providing cheap natural gas to replace coal in our power plants.
Some say the combination of fracking and horizontal drilling is one of the most important advances in the past 50 years. I don't disagree.
But some do. Our local watchdog, the Conservancy of Southwest Florida, has made a cottage industry of decrying fracking and its presumed evils. Instead of doing the hard work to reduce nutrient pollution of our waterways, a real problem in Florida, it has chosen instead to pick the low-hanging fruit, grab the headlines and demonize something it barely understands.
The Conservancy claims "toxic chemicals" used in the fracturing fluid will contaminate aquifers that provide our drinking water. I challenge them to prove that. The fact is the chemicals, mostly fluidizing and suspending agents (some of them food additives) are used in minuscule amounts, far below toxic levels, and are further diluted in the formation and largely recovered in the pump-back fluids.
The horror stories from fracking's early days (see Zuckerman and Sernovitz) simply don't apply anymore. Today's procedures are well controlled, with care taken to ensure the fluids are safe, casings are secure and leakage is minimized or, in most cases, eliminated altogether.
Whether you believe this or not, the proposal to ban fracking is a solution looking for a problem. Fracking hasn't been done here. There has been no hydraulic fracturing in Florida. The Conservancy cites the Collier-Hogan well near Lake Trafford as an example. But that well wasn't fracked. It was acidized, a long-standing procedure to boost production that's been used for decades around the country, particularly in limestone formations like we have in Florida. Further, in spite of frantic attempts to prove the Collier-Hogan procedure tainted nearby groundwater or aquifers, no signs of pollution have ever been found.
The confusion between fracking and acidizing points up another problem. All of the local attention is being given to "fracking." In fact, hydraulic fracturing is but one of many types of enhanced recovery that could be used in Florida. Along with acidizing, some of the others include microbial treatment to fluidize heavy oil, carbon dioxide injection to cut oil viscosity, surfactant sweeps to scrub residual oil and gel emplacements to reduce water production.
Regulating just fracking isn't enough.
What should be done? Don't ban anything. Get some facts. Put a hold on all forms of enhanced production until risks can be assessed. Carry out an objective study -- the DEP is right group to conduct it -- based on Florida's geology. Investigate possible damage to our water supply from all types of enhanced recovery. Then, when real information is available, impose standards.
Sen. Kathleen Passidomo (R-Naples) and a number of her colleagues agree with this approach, which was tried without success the past two sessions. It should be tried again; it's the right way to go.
In the meantime, SB 462/HB 237 should be allowed to die, with or without hearings. The bills are inadequate and have little merit.

My Mother Has Been Hallucinating All Night And Half A Day And She Is Still Going. Dr. Suggested More Of Her Medication. Any Suggestion On How To Deal With This Situation? Thank Youuu, Rosana
Asked by rosana gonzalez
My Mother Has Been Hallucinating All Night And Half A Day And She Is Still Going. Dr. Suggested More Of Her Medication. Any Suggestion On How To Deal With This Situation? Thank Youuu, Rosana
She goes from scary visions to funny ones. In other words she gets panicky and afraid and later she laughs a lot from what she hears in her head. My friends insists I should consider a nursing home but if I can handle it, what would they do differentely than what Im doing?. Thank you!!! Rosana
Hallucinations are false impressions (hearing and/or seeing things or people that are not there, for example) and delusions are false beliefs (such as believing money has been stolen, or that a spouse is having an affair). Such symptoms are common in individuals in the middle/moderate stages of Alzheimer's disease. However, it is necessary to point out that if the hallucinations came on suddenly, it may signal some sort of medical issue, such as an infection. If this is the case, it is recommended that your mother be evaluated in person by a medical professional. Dealing with hallucinations and/or delusions can be one of the more challenging aspects of caring for an individual with Alzheimer's disease Although your mother is disconnected from reality, what she is experiencing is real to her; you will not be able to convince her of the truth. Instead of trying to change her behaviors, it might be easier to manage them. First, assess whether the hallucinations are causing your mother anxiety and/or distress. Not all hallucinations and delusions are unpleasant, so you might really address them only if your mother is upset. Otherwise, acknowledge and validate your mother's concerns, but then redirect and distract her with something more pleasant. For example, if your mother is seeing family members who have long passed, such her own mother, you might say, "Mom, I know you loved your mother so much! She was one special lady. Her apple pie was the best I ever had! Speaking of, why don't we go into the kitchen and get a slice of that cake I picked up yesterday?" Here, you are recognizing and validating your mother's concerns, but you are neither confirming nor denying her reality. By redirecting her, you are taking her mind away from what is unpleasant, and steering her towards something more positive.
