Losing weight is not that hard as most of the people think.
It is the right combination of many things like healthy lifestyle, nutrition plan and suitable exercise program. Actually, the rule is very simple. If you want to lose pounds, you must burn more calories than you consume.
Most people believe the harder they workout the more fat they burn.
Sweating intensively in the gym, does not always guarantee positive results. Caloric burn depends on a workout's duration and intensity and it's easier to work out longer when exercising at a lower intensity.
Your heart rate is your indicator of how fit you are and what the intensity of your workouts should be.
If your resting heart rate is high, you are not physically very fit, and if your heart rate is low, that means you're physically fit. The simple explanation behind this is that the more conditioned your body is, the less effort it needs to make to pump blood thru your body. That's why athletes have so much low resting heart rate, about 40-50 per min. And if you have a lower resting heart rate than someone else, don't assume that you're in better shape than them.
If your workouts are effective, your resting heart rate will slowly decrease. And if you want to lose weight you must target your heart rate. Fat burning can happen as long as we are targeting our heart rate the right way. So, what is target heart rate for weight loss?
First of all, What is a target heart rate?
In order to really make your workouts efficient, you need to pay attention to your heart. Actually, your heart rate, to be more specific.
Your target heart rate is a range of beats per minute that helps you determine if you're exercising at the right intensity. If your pulse is too low, you won't get the maximum benefit from your workout; if it's too high, you won't be able to train as long.
A target heart-rate zone is a certain percentage of your maximum heart rate (Max HR), the highest number of times your heart can beat in one minute.
Heart rate training may sound complicated, but it's really quite simple. You just need dedication and exercise routine. It's about exercising at the right intensity for burning fat, strengthening your cardiovascular system or whatever your exercise goals are. And your heart rate is the indicator that will tell you when you're exercising at the right intensity.
When it comes down to losing weight and getting the right results, it is important to have heart rate calculator, because using a heart rate monitor can help motivate you to exercise.
Heart Rate Monitor
For measuring your heart rate you can use your fingers to count the pulse, but that method isn't accurate enough. The easiest way to know what your heart rate during exercise, is using a heart rate monitor.
By wearing a heart rate monitor during your workout, you get fast and accurate response. A strap goes around your chest, and a watch on your wrist displays your heart rate in beats per minute. With your Free Team Beachbody account you can view your target heart rate zone in the fitness tools section. All you need to enter is your age and sex. This is something that is highly recommended to get the best accuracy of your heart rate.
Even in the P90X workout, Tony Horton recommends a heart rate monitor and asks you to check it often. It can keep you motivated and energized for making your body more fit, so you can be able to handle higher heart rates for longer periods of time.
Determine your maximum heart hate
Knowing your maximum heart rate is very important to remain safe during exercise. A maximum heart rate (Max HR) is the highest number of beats your heart contracts during a one minute measurement. The best method of determining your individual maximum heart rate is to be clinically tested and monitored on a treadmill. The other method is by using an age-predicted maximum heart rate formula:
- WOMEN: 226 – your age = age-adjusted Max HR
- MEN: 220 – your age = age-adjusted Max HR
For example, if you are a 35 year-old man, your age-adjusted maximum heart rate is 185 bpm ( bpm stands for beats per minute).
For best and accurate results consult your coach and your doctor.
So, what should your target heart rate for weight loss be?
Target zone is a heart rate range that helps you maintain an intensity level while you work out. Target zones typically correspond with a specific exercise goal and helps to effectively grade if an exercise is actually working for you or overworking you. Please note that each person's heart rate will be different for each zone.
It is very important to know that working out in the so-called "fat-burning zone", which is about 60% to 75% of your maximum heart rate, burns fewer calories than working in the so-called "aerobic zone". That is due to the fact that working in this cardio zone, you are actually working out at 75% to 85% of your maximum heart rate. So for the best results, stick to aerobic zone.
Getting your heart rate closer to your max heart rate might show more calories being burned, but that doesn't indicate burning fat.
To really target the long-term savings bank where your body stores fat, you need to lower intensity activities that keep your heart rate in the fat-burning zone for longer.
Choosing a workout and intensity level to reach your fat burning zone will depend on your fitness level.
For getting the maximum benefits of any exercise program, the most important thing is knowing how to measure a maximum heart rate, as well as understanding how a target your heart rate zone while exercising can determine successful weight loss. In the end, continuously keeping track on your heart rate, will make you better understand the overall health of your heart.

How much will solar panels cost?
May 18, 2017
After reading articles, hearing news stories and listening to your friends, your interest in having solar panels installed one your home is piqued. And why shouldn't it be? After all, solar power can dramatically cut your energy costs while taking advantage of one of the planet's greatest natural resources — the sun. However, as you pursue this path, more than likely, you have one main question on your mind — and it's the question Legend Solar employees hear all the time when they're out in the community.
How much will my panels cost?
Often preceded with something specific about the size of your house, the question generally goes something like this: "I have a 3,000 square foot house. How many panels do I need?" Or, "I have a 6,000 square foot house, how much is solar going to cost?"
The problem is, solar power is not measured in square feet. It's not determined based on a single factor alone. And it takes a little longer to answer than a simple sentence in a passing conversation.
"There's just not a cookie cutter setup for a home, and we wouldn't want that for the customer either," says Shane Perkins, co-owner of Legend Solar.
Rather than offering customers a one-size-fits-all solar plan, Legend Solar bases each solar system on a combination of a numerous variables, including the amount of energy used in the home, how many people live in the home, the angle of the roof, the municipality in which your home is located, and more.
"It really depends," says Jud Burkett, director of corporate communication for Legend Solar.
Even those customers who live in St. George, Utah, for example, may have completely different scenarios depending on whether they live north or south of the Virgin River and therefore receive power from St. George City or Dixie Power.
"It's not like a car where everyone buys the same car and gets the same options," Burkett says. "We're providing you with a car that does exactly what you need it to do and that takes some knowledge of what you need your car to do."
Continuing with the car analogy Burkett adds, "We don't want to sell you a dump truck if you only need a Tacoma."
The process behind the pitch
There are likely more than a handful of people out there who are a bit skeptical of Legend Solar employees' inability to pull a project bid off the top of their heads, seeing this as a sales tactic to schedule a more involved conversation with them. However, if you consider the innumerable potential scenarios in a given household, it makes more sense as to why the Legend Solar team needs to spend a little more time.
A retired couple and a family of five may each live in a 3,000 square foot home, but if the retired couple only lives in their home part of the year and the family of five has teenagers who are firing up blow dryers and video game systems for hours each day, their usage will be dramatically different.
The key to determining how much your solar system will cost is for you to provide Legend Solar with your power bills for the last 12 months so they can determine your kilowatt usage. They will also need your physical address to get a vision for how a solar system would work on your property. Are there trees surrounding the home? What direction does the roof face and what is the tilt of the roof? Do you live in an area with restrictions on net metering? All these factors will be taken into account.
Complex process — but not for you
While the process to determine the solar system that is right for your home is complex and personalized, you don't have to worry about any of it. Once you provide the 12 months of power bills and physical address, the Legend Solar team will handle everything from there. So even though the answer to your initial question: "How much will it cost to put solar on my house?" may take a little longer than simply spouting off a figure at a vendor booth at the latest home and garden show, in the end you will have a complete picture of what you can expect to pay — and a completely personalized solar system that is right for you.

Patiala: The Sports Authority of India (SAI) and Indian Olympics Association (IOA) have been asked to select the women`s hockey team for the upcoming World Cup in Rosario, Argentina later this month.
The existing selection committee has been asked to select the squad for the World Cup on August 13-14.
Indian women`s hockey was rocked by a sex scandal recently when a fringe player had raised sexual harassment allegations against chief coach M K Kaushik, who was sacked there after and former international Sandeep Somesh was appointed as the new coach.
Somesh and Modi are the two coaches who belong to the few among the staff to got a call-up from the Sports Authority of India.
The players had appealed that Somesh and Modi were their choices, as both of them had been the support of the team, right from preparing strategies to analyzing their strengths and weaknesses.
The Sports Ministry has also included the names of former captains, Pritam Siwach and Sandeep Kaur, in the coaching staff for the camp, at the National Institute of Sports (NIS), here, which started yesterday.
39 probables have been called for camp.
Pritam Siwach is Arjuna awardee, who led India to the silver medal in the 1998 Asian Games, and Sandeep, who was skipper for the 1998 World Cup, are among the four coaches with the team.
After the sex scandal, the players demanded the removal of some of the coaches but requested that Somesh and Modi be retained.
The government observer for women`s hockey, Rupa Saini, has replaced Madhu Yadav, who is also a selector, as team manager.

Hong Kong is my favourite city, I just love the way it writhes with life through most of the day. It is a city of many faces, and one of the things that I like to do when I visit Hong Kong is to visit the outlying islands.
Two of my favourite islands are a short ferry ride from Central, on Hong Kong Island.
Cheung Chau is a dumbbell-shaped, car free island that many locals flock to at weekends for a bit of respite from the city. It has a famous temple called the Pak Tai Temple that is dedicated to the Taoist God of the Sea. Each spring the temple is the focus of the Cheung Chau Bun Festival which celebrates the end of an ancient plague. The weeklong festival climaxes with a large, carnival-like street procession featuring costumed children on stilts held aloft above the crowd, lion dances and other colourful participants. The parade winds its way through the narrow streets to the grounds near the Pak Tai Temple, which are dominated by enormous bamboo towers studded with sweet white buns, and where the main festivities take place. At midnight, athletes scramble up one of the towers in a contest to grab the top-most 'luckiest' ones.
Cheung Chau has a good beach, lots of excellent restaurants and accommodation. It is easy to walk around, and it best to visit midweek.
Lamma Island is much bigger than Cheung Chau, being the third largest island after Lantau and Hong Kong.
It has some nice beaches and a mountainous spine with Mount Stenhouse being the tallest peak. The two most popular villages on Lamma are Yung Shue Wan and Sok Kwu Wan, both of which are accessible by ferry. Many people catch the ferry to Yung Shue Wan and walk the trail across the island to Sok Kwu Wan, where there a great many popular seafood restaurants.
Because of its greater size, and the fact that it has a hinterland comprised of natural bush, Lamma is quieter than Cheung Chau but both islands are very interesting to visit. Even if you didn't wish to spend much time on either island, it is worth going just for the experience of sailing across Hong Kong Harbour, which is a hive of activity and is plied by all types of vessels from magnificent cruise ships to traditional junks. Just the views of sailing down the harbour with Hong Kong Island on one side and Kowloon on the other and the incredible skyscrapers which seem to soar ever upwards makes for a fascinating journey alone.

American Flags in Weiser.
100% Made in America!
Just how did the American flag turn into exactly what it is today?
Folding the American flag.
The U.S. flag is a solid symbol of American identity and national pride. Also called Old Glory, the U.S. flag has a vibrant history and also has undergone several adjustments since the initial official flag of 1777.
Today the U.S. flag consists of thirteen horizontal stripes, seven red rotating with six white stripes. The stripes stand for the original 13 colonies; the stars represent the 50 states of the country. The shades of the flag are symbolic also: red signifies hardiness and valor, white signifies pureness and also innocence and blue represents vigilance, willpower and justice. The factor the Continental Congress originally chose the red, white, and blue shades was not made clear in the resolution embracing the flag. Historians think it was most likely a color selection based on the British Union Jack, which had actually previously flown over the colonies.
In time, some have connected a little various significances to the three colors, for example, the color red representing the bloodshed spilled to maintain our liberty, however the significance of the initial meaning has been rather consistent from 1782.
How did the American flag grow into exactly what it is today?
It is a lot more than the 3 colors or a "decoration". Consider the places around the globe that the American flag has actually flown, think about the improvement it has actually undergone throughout the years on American soil. It is genuinely humbling to think about all that was offered and also given up so that the American flag can fly openly throughout this nation.
The flag that started with only 13 stars expanded to 50 with the addition of states to the Union. The variety of stars on the flag gradually rose to its existing number today where a new star would be added to the blue field on the 4th of July after the day of each new state's admission.
The variety of alternating horizontal red as well as white stripes has actually stayed at thirteen except from 1795 to 1818 when fifteen stripes appeared on the flag to note the admission of Kentucky and Vermont to the Union. In 1818, it was decided that adding a stripe to the flag for every new state would certainly not occur as it will make the flag look crowded and also it would certainly make the flag unwieldy. It was agreed then that the flag would certainly return to consisting of just thirteen stripes to represent the initial colonies.
The American flag is an icon not just of hardiness, valor, purity, innocence, vigilance, determination and also justice; it is a sign of freedom. Freedom that has been battled so hard for over the years. Liberty that has cost this country and the families within so much, but it is still a beacon to those wanting they had the freedom that the nation has.
Folding the American flag.
Typical flag rules suggests that before an American flag is stored or flown, its handlers ought to two times fold it in half lengthwise; then (from the end opposite the blue area) make a triangular fold, continuously fold it in triangles until the other end is reached. This makes a triangular "pillow" of the flag with only the blue starred area showing on the outside, as well as it takes thirteen folds to generate: 2 lengthwise folds and also eleven triangular ones.
The flag isn't folded up in this fashion due to the fact that each of the folds has a special symbolic meaning; the flag is folded in this manner because it provides a sensible ritualistic touch that identifies folding a flag from folding a common item such as a bedsheet, and due to the fact that it results an aesthetically pleasing, easy-to-handle shape. This thirteen-fold treatment was a typical method long prior to the creation of a ritualistic assignation of "implying" to every of the actions.
A sophisticated flag folding event incorporating these meanings has actually from then on been created for special occasions such as Memorial Day and Veterans Day. These meanings are "real" in the feeling that they mean something to individuals who participate in the event, however they are not the reason that a flag is folded in the traditional thirteen-step manner.
This is America as well as its symbol is the American Flag. Even though numerous Americans near Idaho state happily fly the flag outside their residences and companies every day, it is fitting that we, as a country, have actually established apart one specific day each year to honor our flag as well as to remember that it stands for the ideals and values that we need to strive to support.

Preparing for school - what parents need to know
Russian education is still, with all the changes, it remains one of the best and most complete in the world. However, for small children lessons - a serious burden. Especially for the restless and active. And the task of parents - to help kids, first graders.Preparing for school - when to start
Early Development Proponents say that teaching a child to read and write should be almost a year. And in the traditional education system, the age of onset of learning core subjects recommended to move to 5-6 years. It was then that a greater number of children starting to show interest in their studies. Listen to the advice you need and those, and others, but when you start teaching your child - it's up to you. And it will help you determine the right time kid himself. When he begins to show an interest in reading, to ask what is written - you can begin to teach him the alphabet. This will in 2 years, or 6 - are not so important. Fit the child, certainly not worth learning through the power goes much slower.
What a child needs to know in the first class?
Preparing for school involves learning core subjects - reading and math. The child must know the alphabet and be able to read by syllables, to know the numbers to 100, to be able to count from 10 in reverse order. If a kid goes to kindergarten - where all this will teach. If not - then care for this lies with the parents. They should give the child the basics of literacy and numeracy. You can do it yourself or hire tutors. A good option for children who do not go to the garden - educational circles. There's the baby adapts to the school environment, learn to socialize with other children, listen to the teacher. This gradual preparation for school is very important, without it, the child will be hard at first.Preparing for school - psychological aspects
How to help your child adjust to school? After sitting still in class, listening to teachers - it is not easy. Especially the kid who used to do several things at once - to play with friends, draw, sing. In good schools, the learning process is designed so that the children are being actively introduced into it, it is interesting. But in ordinary classes are conducted classically - children sit and listen to a teacher - says.
If your school's traditional training scheme - help the child. Firstly, do not scold him, if the teacher is not satisfied with the behavior of the child. In a playful way, dolls seated at their desks, explain why the lessons can not run or scream. Try to convey to the child that what the teacher says, it is very useful. For example, teach him to read the price tags in stores, and you tell yourself that it will soon be able to buy the products. The kid is very important to be independent, and he will make an effort to learn something new, that will bring him to the world of adults.
Second, talk to the teacher. No swearing, quietly tell about the peculiarities of the child's behavior. Since Soviet times, in school all students are accustomed to row with the same brush. This is - a gross error. And in your power to change the attitude of the teacher to your child. Naladte relationship with the teacher, make friends. Help the class, accompany the children on walks and excursions. Good attitude of the teacher to the child - one of the most important aspects of successful learning.

Michael Mmoh defeats friend Sebastian Korda in first round of Elizabeth Moore Sarasota Open
Give Sebastian Korda, 17, three more years and this match will be much closer down the road. Perhaps a toss-up.
But on Monday in the first round of the 11th annual Elizabeth Moore Sarasota Open, Michael Mmoh, 20, proved stronger and more experienced in winning the battle between Bradenton residents.
The muscular 6-foot-2 Mmoh defeated the slender 6-4 Korda 6-2, 6-4 to move on in the tournament being held at Laurel Oak Country Club.
Mmoh and Korda aren't strangers. On the contrary.
"We practice together all the time," Mmoh said. "I'm pretty good friends with him and his dad. I see the whole family a lot. It was unfortunate that we had to play each other in the first round."
Korda's father is Petr Korda, the former professional tennis star from the Czech Republic who won 10 ATP titles and was ranked No. 2 in the world in 1998 after winning the Australian Open. Sebastian's mother is also a former pro tennis player and his sisters Jessica and Nelly play on the LPGA Tour.
The young Korda is the reigning Australian Open junior champion.
"I think Sebastian is a very young and talented player," Mmoh said. "His results have been good and he has so much room to improve. I think he could become a very good tennis player. He has a ton of potential."
So does Mmoh, who was born in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and came to Bradenton to train for several years at the IMG Academy. Mmoh, who turned pro in 2016, has won two ATP Challenger events in Knoxville, Tenn., and Lexington, Ky. He's also won four ITF Futures tournaments.
"I've been working hard with my coach Glenn Weiner," Mmoh said. "He's been doing a great job. I've just been putting in the hard yards and the results are paying off. I've had a pretty successful year, so far. Hopefully, I can keep it going.
"I want to be able to start making moves in my career. I've had a pretty good start. I'm happy with my play and results.
"I think I have a lot of potential. I hope to be able to rise up to it and have a successful career."
The first set was tied at 2-2 when Mmoh took control and went on to win the next eight games. Trailing 4-0 in the second set, Korda showed some grit winning four of the next five games before Mmoh put him away.
"Obviously, it was very tough with the windy conditions," Mmoh said. "It was tough, honestly, I didn't have a lot of rhythm in the first set. Luckily, I won it pretty easily. He had trouble finding his rhythm, as well.
"The first set wasn't the best of tennis at times. We both just kind of pushed through.
"I played the big points pretty well. I think experience was on my side."

So, it's finally time for the Big Reveal! Exciting, right?! Actually, I let it slip last night on Twitter (oops!), although I think only one astute person (hi, Maya!) caught on!
Today I went for the anatomy ultrasound and the gender was confirmed - well, as much as they will confirm it - she said she 'strongly believes' it's a....
Ha! Betcha thought I was telling there.
Really, I needed to hear and see it again. After all the input I've gotten from different sources, including you guys on my little poll up there - I had myself convinced it was a boy. Well, guess what?
Baby's a GIRL!!! Here she is - It's all looking good, only I have a 'low anterior placenta', which hopefully will resolve itself in the next couple months and not result in a C-section (eeks). All the development is right on schedule and there are no soft markers for any problems like Down's or neural tube problems. Hooray!
I am finally feeling more confident that things will be okay. Did I tell you I bought a crib off Kijiji? I got a white sleigh crib. It's still disassembled for now - I can't wait to start playing nursery. It's hard with my husband gone, as we like to make most decisions together. And in general, we like the exact opposite things (doesn't that figure?), so purchases for the nursery will have to be very well considered and approved by both of us!
I also am making the switch from OB to midwife. I'm going back to the midwife I had for my first pregnancy. I can't tell you the relief I feel about this. The OB I was seeing was professional, respected, and competent, but I'd wait an hour after my appointment time to see him for 5 minutes. And sometimes I felt like I was being rushed out the door, or that my questions were 'silly'. When I told him today, he actually seemed annoyed with me - and said, "Well, why did you even start with me?". Whoa. My family doctor referred me to him when I had an ectopic pregnancy, that's why. And after that I figured he was my go-to guy for OB/gyn stuff.
Anyway. Closing the chapter.
I found the midwife to be profoundly empathetic, calm, patient, and kind. She never acted like my questions were silly or condescended to me. She always treated me like a person, not a name on a list. She was incredibly giving of her time and so, so kind when I went through the first miscarriage. I am looking forward to being in her care. Plus, I trust her to avoid interventions as much as possible and aim for a more natural birth. The OB was already talking about C-sections, for goodness' sake. I'm 'only' 19 weeks along!
On to pickles - With an abundance of cucumbers in the garden and only me around to eat them, I decided to whip up some refrigerator pickles. This is super easy to do, doesn't require any canning experience, equipment or know-how, and I think you should do it too.
Refrigerator Pickles
you will need:
- 2 cups of cucumbers (or zucchini, green/yellow beans, green tomatoes, bell peppers, whatevs), peeled (unless they're the skinny English kind) and cut into spears or slices at your discretion
- 2/3 cup sliced onion (sweet, white, or red - or pearl onions, or quartered small onions, or a lesser amount of quartered shallots)
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 hot pepper (jalapeno, little red chilis, or 1 tsp of red pepper flakes)
- 1 Tbsp chopped fresh dill (or 2 tsp dried, or a sprig of fresh per jar)
- 2 cups white vinegar (or apple cider, if you like)
- 1 to 1 1/2 cups sugar, depending on how sweet you like your pickles
- 1 Tbsp salt (regular granulated will dissolve better, but you can use coarse pickling if you like)
- 2 tsp mustard seeds
- 2 tsp celery seeds
- 1 tsp pickling spice mix
- 1 Tbsp of dried roasted garlic (I used PC's Blue Menu)
- any spice you like (try turmeric + curry powder for an Indian flavour, or caraway, or groud mustard)
Combine the vinegar, sugar, salt and your optional brine add-ins in a pot on the stove and bring it to a simmer, stirring to dissolve the sugar and salt. Once it's all dissolved, ladle it over the vegetables, cover, and put in the refrigerator.
Now, the hard part. DON'T EAT THE PICKLES for at least a couple days, if you can stand the wait. They will keep for months in the fridge, but I guarantee they won't last that long because they are super yummy! And easy enough to make any old time.
I'd love to hear if you make these! It takes hardly any time at all and is so worth it. Ready? Go!

Undetected intraocular pressure (IOP) peaks seem to be related to glaucoma progression. Performing a diurnal IOP curve profile (IOP-CP) has been used to determine IOP fluctuations; nevertheless, IOP-CP is considered cumbersome for both the patient and the physician. An alternative method of detecting IOP spikes is the water-drinking test (WDT). The purpose of our study is to investigate the acceptance of patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) of two diagnostic tests of IOP fluctuation: WDT vs. IOP-CP.
A sample of non-consecutive patients with POAG was recruited from public hospital in Guadalajara, Mexico. A signed consent form was obtained from all participants. The study protocol was granted by the local IRB. After a comprehensive ophthalmological assessment, patients underwent in random order a WDT and an IOP-CP. The WDT consisted of an initial IOP reading, intake of one liter of water in less than five minutes; after drinking water, IOP was measured every 15 minutes for 1 hour. IOP-CP was done at 3 different moments (8 AM, 1 PM and 7 PM); at least 2 consistent IOP measurements (differences < 3 mm Hg) with a calibrated tonometer had to be got. The same observer masked to previous IOP measurements, performed all tonometries. Participants were also asked to determine which test would prefer as an initial test; an acceptance score was also requested to each patient using a visual analogue scale (0 to 10).
Fifty two candidates were screened and 38 (27 female and 11 male; mean age = 63.7 ± 8.6 yrs.) were included to participate in the study. Significant differences in WDT were found at two time points (30 and 60 min vs. baseline; p=0.001). Nine subjects (23.6%) had clinically significant changes (IOP peaks larger than 4 mm Hg). The IOP-DC showed no significant differences regarding mean IOP values in none of the moments; only two individuals (5.3%) had clinically significant differences. Patients preferred the WDT (92.8%) as an initial test score and acceptance score of such test was 9.8 ± 0.6 which was significantly better (p = 0.0001) than IOP-CV (8.1 ± 2.3).
Our results demonstrate that WDT outperform IOP-DC to detect significant changes in IOP; furthermore, patients prefer the WDT as a diagnosis test and give a better score of acceptance as compared to the IOP-CD.

The Cheapest Ways to Move Furniture Interstate in Australia
Moving furniture interstate in Australia can be a real hassle, particularly if you are on a budget, or have limited time.
Families especially have a harder time moving because they have a whole household full of furniture and appliances to pack and unpack. Professional movers can do all the packing for you, but they can be very costly.
Indeed, you must have a thousand questions about how you can save money moving interstate. But consider this – according to the Australia Bureau of Statistics, 339,000 people from all over Australia moved interstate in 2014-5. This means a lot of people are asking the very same questions that you are asking right now.
Fortunately, there are some cheaper alternatives for people moving interstate. Even families that have a lot of furnishings can save money with a little research, hard work, and the helping hand of creativity.
Saving Money When You Move Interstate
The good news is – there are several excellent lower cost alternatives to hiring professional movers available for Australians moving interstate. These choices are not for everybody, but they can help you control moving costs.
Cost-effective alternatives for moving furniture interstate in Australia include:
1. Sell, Then Buy Anew
Simply sell all your furniture and buy replacements when you reach your new home. This method works well for singles, retirees and students, but it is not so good for people who own family heirlooms, valuable pieces or families who need to budget.
2. Hire Your Own Truck
You can always hire a truck, because there are many hire-truck companies out there fighting for your business. Believe it or not, modern hire trucks are easy to drive because most of them have automatic transmissions. But you will have to load and unload your belongings yourself.
3. Hire A Trailer
If your vehicle is equipped for pulling a trailer, a hire trailer is usually a cheaper option than a truck. Although pulling a trailer for a long distance is not particularly fun, especially if you are not used to it. Fuel costs can also be steep.
4. Why Hire When You Can Borrow!
If you know someone who owns a truck or trailer, ask if you can borrow it for the weekend. You can save a lot of money in hire fees if you can talk a friend or relative into lending you his or her truck or trailer. Just remember to send it back with a full tank of petrol as a 'thank you' to your friend.
Something to remember – do-it-yourself moving can become costlier than you think. You might have to take time out of work, and there are costs on the road that you may not expect. In addition to fuel, you may have to pay for hotel rooms and restaurant meals.
These costs can add up, so despite what some people think, hiring a truck or trailer is not always the cheapest way to move furniture interstate.
Nor is it necessarily fun. Do you really want to try and drive all the way from Melbourne to Brisbane pulling a trailer behind your car? Why not make the trip in a nice comfortable airliner instead and leave the driving to the professionals.
5. Hire A PODS Container
There is one very cost effective alternative to hire trucks and professional movers. It's probably the option that you haven't even considered yet.
They are called PODS, and they take all the hassle out of moving.
A PODS container is simply a cargo container for your possessions. We drop the POD off at your home, you load and pack it yourself (which eliminates labour costs). Then our professional driver picks it up and takes it to your new home.
Instead of pulling a trailer for hundreds of kilometres down unfamiliar roads, you and the family can enjoy a nice leisurely road trip to your new surroundings. The PODS container, and all of your belongings, will be waiting for you when you arrive.
Then, all you have to do is unload it and you can take your time unpacking in your new home.
So, if you're looking for a cheap way to move furniture interstate in Australia, and you want the process to be as hassle-free as possible, simply visit our website. You can also call us on 1800 467 637 or send us an email at email@example.com.

When facing death, we are suddenly overcome by the truth that ones life is
ephemeral, and at the end, we are nothing more than corporeal existence.
We witness the moment when all their earlier cultural and intellectual existence
leaves and all but the decomposing body is left. The organs cease to work and
the flesh becomes burrowed by maggots. Death fades away the dignity of
humanity and brings it back to the status as just an organism. Paradoxically,
facing death is the moment when we become aware of life all the more keenly.
While we are witnessing death, we sense that our own lungs!are breathing, our
heart is beating, blood is being pumped through our veins, and the organs
disgorge vomit in our stomach.
This show presents this duality of death with the medium of maggots. As
maggots are born in a dying or dead body, they consume the last bit of the living
remains. Death, strangely enough, leads to the power of life.

Get Lucky
Professor Wiseman, as wise as him name suggests, executed a ten-year study to determine the nature of luck, and published his findings in a book called The Luck Factor: The Scientific Study of the Lucky Mind. Among other things, he experimentally studied the lottery winnings from people who count themselves as "lucky" and compared them to those who are self-described as "unlucky,"
It led him to conclude that a significant portion of one's good fortune is not random, but rather due to one's state of mind and behaviors. He concludes that luck is an artifact of psychology, where a person is lucky not because of cosmic accidents, but because one achieves a particular mindset which precipitates and amplifies "lucky" events.Professor Wiseman has even outlined four principles to help one increase their good fortune:
Principle One: Maximise Chance Opportunities(link)
Lucky people are skilled at creating, noticing and acting upon chance opportunities. They do this in various ways, including networking, adopting a relaxed attitude to life and by being open to new experiences.
Principle Two: Listening to Lucky Hunches
Lucky people make effective decisions by listening to their intuition and gut feelings. In addition, they take steps to actively boost their intuitive abilities by, for example, meditating and clearing their mind of other thoughts.
Principle Three: Expect Good Fortune
Lucky people are certain that the future is going to be full of good fortune. These expectations become self-fulfilling prophecies by helping lucky people persist in the face of failure, and shape their interactions with others in a positive way.
Principle Four: Turn Bad Luck to Good
Lucky people employ various psychological techniques to cope with, and often even thrive upon, the ill fortune that comes their way. For example, they spontaneously imagine how things could have been worse, do not dwell on the ill fortune, and take control of the situation.

text: Hi all, Not sure if this is the right place to put this, but I hope it is - I did spend some time deciding! Anyway, I've come up with an idea that's snowballed into a rather complete idea, and in a day or two I think I'll be able to start writing. It's a short story, although it'll probably be on the upper end of the wordcount scale, and it's my first horror. It's actually psychological if I had to put it in a sub genre, a little bit like the Silent Hill video game series, along with The Evil Within, a soon-to-be-released video game. The thing is, the genre is completely new to me. I'm obviously going to read some horror short stories, but I'm actually more fond of the raw idea I have, and I want to get it down on paper, so I don't want to 'waste' too much time doing that. So how is a horror written, generally? Do I use the 'short sentences create tension' thing, or is that too childish? When is less more, and when should I add more description of the setting, characters, etc? It sounds like I'm a total newbie, but I don't want to crack on with the story and find out that the execution is totally wrong. If anyone could provide me with links to good sites or books, then that would be great. I've had a look on Google already, and it's hard to tell good sites from bad if you don't know what you're looking for. Cheers!

Title: The Serpent's Ring (Relics of Mysticus #1)
Format: Physical Copy
Evan and Claire Jones are typical teenagers, forced to go with their parents to yet another boring museum ... that is, until something extraordinary happens to make their day a little more than interesting. After following a strange little creature into a closed exhibit, Evan and his older sister, Claire, discover the Serpent's Ring, one of the magical relics formed from the shattered Mysticus Orb. Purely by accident, they have awakened its powers and opened a portal to Sagaas, land of ancient gods.
Before the siblings can comprehend what has happened, the Serpent's Ring is wrenched from Evan's hand by an enormous bird and flown back to Aegir, the Norse god of the sea. Evan and Claire, accompanied by a band of unlikely heroes, must retrieve the Serpent's Ring before Aegir uses its immense powers to flood all the lands on Earth.
Wow! What a great book! It suits all of my needs. It's interesting, funny and magical. My favorite character is Evan because he is funny and has an attitude. He reminds me a bit of Percy Jackson because he is witty and always has a smart comment up his sleeve. My favorite part was when Evan was eating the Poppin-Droppins. It reminds me of my brother, who eats by shoveling food into his mouth like a bulldozer. I like how there are cute little recipies they put in the back of the book that told you how to actually make food from the story. I thought it was a nice touch. I love to cook so it was really sweet to put those recipies in the book.
My least favorite part of the book was when Dunkle and Barfel ran away in fear. It proved just how cowardly they were. And poor Evan had to face a sea god all by himself! I was mad at Sigurd for hitting on Claire. Achy should he like her? It's not fair to Claire! He's immortal and he probably dated a lot of girls in his life! He is my least favorite protagonist because of this fact.I also dislike Agier because of his temper. Sometimes I wanna be like " SHUT UP!!!!!!!".
Overall, the book was really good. It was slightly boring in the beginning, but the end was satisfing. It's a good book for middle school readers. I can't wait for the next book!!Why is there a small letter H in each picture at the beginning of every chapter?
It's a little like finding Waldo I drew the illustrations, so I added my initial to each one.
Recently, I drew an illustration of the mermaid Lazonia and decided to swap this image with the
current picture of the underwater city. It should be published in the book by next week. Here's a
sneak peek:
What would happen if three people went to Sagaas at the same time? Would one person not
get a power?
That's a great question. The power is given from touching the relic, and since Claire and Evan held the Serpent's Ring at the same time they were both given a power. In the next book, The Trickster's Totem, I'm going to have just one person find the relic — one power to one person. I'd love to add a few spoilers here, but I probably shouldn't.
In the next book, will you add a third character? Or will it still be Evan and Claire? Will they
be the same age?
The Trickster's Totem begins a few months after their adventures in Asgard. Evan is still
fourteen and has just started his freshman year in high school. Claire is sixteen and a junior at
the same school. Dunkle will be joining them on their adventure into the spirit world of Native
American legends, but Barfel will stay behind to watch over the Serpent's Ring. I will add more
characters to the story: A dragon named Kehl will be the protector of the Trickster's Totem, and
a Native American warrior will be joining the group as well.
Describe yourself in less than a tweet (140 characters)
Inspired artist, creative cook, dream dweller, Disney enthusiast, infatuated wife, and Mother of two adorable children and three wild dogs.
What made you want to write about gods and magic and things like this?
Since childhood, I've been enchanted by fantastical stories: becoming whisked away into a world where anything is possible, magical beings dwell, and the fate of the world can be saved by unexpected heroes and heroines. I studied humanities in college, and was fascinated by the symbolism in ancient art, literature, philosophy and music from around the world. I wanted to create a place where one could visit all of the realms of mythology. Each novel in the Relics of Mysticus series will take Evan and Claire into a different realm.

AUSTIN - Texas State Rep. Aaron Peńa was sworn in to his fourth term Tuesday at the State Capitol in Austin. After the ceremony House members quickly moved on to the important business of electing Representative Joe Straus the new Speaker of the Texas House of Representatives.
"Joe Straus is a good friend and I congratulate him on his unanimous election as our new speaker," said Representative Peńa. "We have been able to succeed in the past because of our willingness to work with members on both sides of the aisle. In these dire economic circumstances and with our state facing a grim budget outlook it becomes so much more important to put aside partisanship and do what is best for the state of Texas. That is why I invited Speaker Straus to join our colleagues in a tour of the Rio Grande Valley."
The Rio Grande Valley Partnership will be hosting legislators from across the state in a tour of the Valley from Jan. 22 through 25. Rep. Peńa has secured a commitment from Speaker Straus to join the tour. This year's tour will emphasize communities in the Lower Rio Grande Valley but will include a stop in Weslaco in Hidalgo County on the evening of Jan. 22.
The Speaker and the legislators will meet for a reception with mayors of Hidalgo County at 7:00 p.m. at the home of Patti and Larry Dittburner at 2912 S. International Blvd.
"While the Partnership usually alternates visits to the lower and upper Rio Grande Valley I thought that it was important that our new speaker and the other legislators on the tour have an opportunity to meet with community and business leader from Hidalgo County," said Rep. Peńa. "In the past the strength of our Rio Grande Valley delegation has depended upon regional cooperation. I look forward to continuing to work for a stronger South Texas."
Peńa was elected to a fourth term as State Representative from House District 40 after securing a victory in the Democratic Primary. He did not face a challenge in November. House District 40 includes the communities of Edcouch, Edinburg, Elsa, La Joya, La Villa, Sullivan City and northern Hidalgo County.
"It remains a great honor to serve my community in the Texas House," said Peńa. "With the opening of every session there is a wonderful opportunity to do great work for our citizens. I thank my constituents for their faith in electing me to represent them. I look forward to another session in service and as always my office remains open to any suggestions or ideas."

What we did get was no mere filler namely a complete performance of Six Jubilees, only Lindbergs second mature piano piece, and a welcome alternative slant on a composer known principally for his orchestral music. Jubilee I was written as Lindbergs contribution to a cycle commemorating Pierre Boulezs 75th-birthday. Although it features no discernible Boulez quotations, the piece is so alive with evolving gestures as to warrant continuation. The remaining five pieces develop its motivic and harmonic potential culminating in Jubilee VI, where the originals formal potential is audibly laid bare.
No disrespect to Lindberg to say his piano idiom is not notably individual in itself. Messiaen is evident in the chordal writing and keyboard texture, albeit filtered through later French composers such as Boulez and Tristan Murail, but the formal continuity between pieces and across the cycle is patently Lindbergian. And the trajectory where odd-numbered pieces speed up, while even-numbered ones slow down makes performance appropriate in the context of Bergs Lyric Suite. Good to hear Lindberg as performer too, projecting his iridescent piano writing with accuracy to judge from a cursory following of the score and confidence.
The Clarinet Quintet (1992) may give some indication of what an eventual Lindberg string quartet will sound like. In its extremes of register and glacial textures, this is perhaps his most Nordic work, though the music draws on no obvious precedents Finnish or otherwise in its intently pulsating energy, culminating in a section of toccata-like exhilaration. This is very much a work for five equal players, and Kari Kriikkus integration into the ensemble of the Arditti Quartet ensured that the musics surging activity came through unchecked.
The Ardittis framed the Lindberg pieces with two classics of the quartet repertoire. Stravinskys Three Pieces (1914) is a classic example of a sequence whose overall coherence stems from its inner contrasts. The sophisticated primitivism of the opening piece; the whimsical rhythmic mannerisms of the second; the distanced ceremonial aura of the third: all would reappear in Stravinskys output, but never so directly as here.
Where Stravinsky is reductive, Bergs Lyric Suite is a complex amalgam of technique and expression charting the perceived rise and fall of love at a musical and, as we now know, conceptual level. Yet the fascination would be little were the work of a lesser intrinsic quality, one of the few quartets of any era to reflect the past as surely as it predicts the future. If the Ardittis tilted the balance of their interpretation towards the analytical, the expressive playing of violist Dov Scheindlin ensured this was an account to engage heart as well as brain, while confirming the flexibility-within-discipline of Bergs quartet writing. A quality Lindberg himself may in time draw upon?

Crowns and dental implants are two of the most amazing feats of dentistry. They've come a long way, starting out as primitive dental restorations and becoming some of the most beautiful, functional, and artistic pieces in dentistry.
And patient education and expectation has come a long way as well. The more patients know about these crowns and implants, they more likely they'll end up being successful procedures.
Implants & Dental Crowns in Westminster: More Beautiful and Successful Than Ever
Quality dental implants in Westminster are a beautiful thing, as are dental crowns. Throughout history, the dental community has worked hard to get crowns and implants to look, feel, and function like real teeth.
This hasn't always been easy. Tools and materials in the early days of dentistry were quite primitive. Take, for example, the bamboo pegs used in ancient Egypt, 4000 years ago. Pegs were tapped into the patient's jaw bone to replace missing teeth.
The same can be said of dental crown. A dental crown in Westminster today is so much better than the first ones available.
Another factor that has helped improve the longevity of crowns and implants has been patient education. When patients know more about the dental treatments they're receiving, the better equipped they'll be to care for their restorations, and the longer-lasting the results will be.
What are some things people don't often realize about crowns and dental implants in Westminster?
1. Dental Crowns Do Not Cover 100% of the Tooth
The crown covers just the portion of tooth above the gumline. Why is this important? This is vital to know because it gives a person incentive to brush and floss their teeth.
The plaque and bacteria that cause tooth decay and gum disease can also adversely affect a crowned tooth. Decay can start at the juncture where the crown meets the tooth, as well as the root surface. And just because a person has a crown doesn't mean they can't get gum disease. This will always be an area of concern as long as a patient has teeth.
2. A Patient Can Get Gum Disease Around Implants
The gum tissue covers the implant up to the natural gumline. An implant crown is then placed over the implant to fill the space from the missing tooth and allow the patient to chew normally.
Healthy gums and bones are vital to the success of the implant. If the patient doesn't brush or floss there is a chance they will get gum disease. The result will be gum and bone recession, which puts the implant at risk.
3. A Dental Crown in Westminster Comes in a Variety of Materials
Dental crowns are needed when a patient has a cracked tooth. It is important to support the crack with a crown. Doing so reduces pain and helps prevent decay, nerve irritation, and a broken tooth.
A dental crown in Westminster can come in a variety of materials: full gold crowns, full porcelain crowns, and crowns that are porcelain on the outside with a metal substructure.
The variety of the materials is not just for aesthetics. Metal crowns are often better options for back teeth, as the metal is stronger.
4. Dental Implants Don't Happen Overnight
The dental implant process doesn't happen in a couple of appointments. There can be up to five appointments up to the course of six months to a year to complete the process. All steps are vital to the health and longevity of the implant.
5. Some Patients May Not Be Good Candidates for Implants
Patients who smoke, have severe gum disease, or don't have a lot of bone might not be the best candidates for implants. We tell our patients why they might not be candidates and what can be done so that they can become a good candidate down the road.
Why Homecare Is Vital to the Success of Dental Crowns and Implants
Over the last few decades, the dental community has found ways to improve dental procedures and materials. These changes have added life to dental restorations like crowns, implants, and implant crowns.
But dentists can't do it alone. The patient needs to take good care of their new restorations. How can they do this?
1. Proper Brushing
An electric toothbrush has been one of the best inventions in modern dentistry. The number of revolutions promotes thorough cleansing. Brushing should be done after every meal, or at the very least – twice each day.
2. Daily Flossing
Patients need to floss once a day to prevent gum disease and root decay. Flossing can be done as normal around crowns, but may take some practice around bridges and implants.
3. Regular Dental Visits
We recommend seeing a dentist every six months for a cleaning and at least annually for an exam. When patients come into our office, we can detect early decay and gum disease and take care of these long before they become a major issue.
Long-Lasting Crowns and Implants Depend on You and Your Dentist Being a Team
The success of all dental procedures – including crowns and dental implants in Westminster – depends on many factors. These include patient education, utilizing the top products and dental laboratories, and knowing what to expect from your dental work.
Another factor is being a team with your dentist. As dentists, we know a lot about teeth. But you know a lot about your teeth. You are an essential component in letting us know when you're having issues and what kind of symptoms you're having.
It's also important that you follow the recommendations of your dental team. We only want what's best for you. To ensure the long-lasting success of your dental work, we're going to make plenty of suggestions, particularly pertaining to homecare.
When you're ready to replace a missing tooth with an implant, or protect a cracked tooth with a crown, let your dentist know. And make sure you get all of your questions answered. When we and our patients are on the same page, beautiful things can happen – like beautiful, functional dentistry.

When the Episcopal Community Services of Maryland decided where to hang a brightly colored mural symbolizing peace, the nonprofit's leaders chose the Broadway East neighborhood.
They chose to hang the 24-panel art piece depicting a disparate group of individuals who wind up holding hands and working together outside Collington Square Elementary/Middle School in East Baltimore in order to send a message to "one of the deadlier parts of the community," said Roclande White, director of The Club at Collington Square an after-school and summer program.
The mural was unveiled on Monday in front of elementary students, a city councilman, nonprofit workers and community leaders after a moment of silence for those killed around Baltimore this summer — a summer marked by a surge in shootings and homicides that have alarmed city leaders.

Robert's Renewable Revolution
Documentary now available on iPlayer!
2 June, 2017
We're sure you know by now that Robert Llewellyn is a pretty eco-friendly kind of chap. From installing solar panels on his house to whizzing around in electric cars, he's developed a keen interest over the last decade or so in sustainable energy solutions. But did you know that Robert has also inspired a similar wave of sentiment across the entire village in which he lives?
That's the subject of The Great Village Green Crusade, a one-off documentary that aired on BBC Four this week. The 90-minute film sees Robert attempting to persuade the residents of his village, Temple Guiting in the Cotswolds, to switch their power use from fossil fuels to renewable sources:
Packed with scientific insight and explanation of the latest renewable technology, from Archimedes screws to solar photo-voltaic panels, the programme follows Robert as he tries to win over his fellow villagers with grand designs of a windmill at the top of the local hill, a water turbine in the village stream and solar arrays on parish roofs.
Robert takes inspiration from the extraordinarily rapid change in energy supply happening in perhaps the most surprising of locations - Las Vegas. In the neon-drenched gambling capital of the world, a revolution is under way, as the city attempts to power itself entirely by renewable electricity in 2017.
Back in the Cotswolds, Robert and the village face a challenge as they find the local electricity grid cannot absorb the extra load from their proposed renewable scheme. He seeks out a solution in battery technology, comparing and contrasting the cutting-edge science of lithium-ion and air batteries. Is this technology that Temple Guiting can use, and can Robert's dream become a reality?
And although it's already had its initial airing on BBC Four, you can see the documentary now by heading over to the BBC iPlayer! You can also follow Robert on Twitter, @bobbyllew, to keep up to date with this and other green initiatives he's been involved in lately.

Poppy came into the rescue heavily pregnant, along with 5 other dogs and 3 pups, having been voluntarily surrendered to the council by a breeder who was described as a puppy farmer.
The dogs had been living in sheds and were being neglected in the sense that the owners did not even go up one a day on many an occasion.
Poppy gave birth to 6 gorgeous little pups on the 12th May; 3 girls and 3 boys.
All pups are fully vaccinated, wormed up to date and of course microchipped.
Fully socialised with people and other dogs.
Willow was the first born and loves cuddles and kisses.
Willow has a new brother of the 2 legged kind to have lots of fun with now.

Mark my words like they are a target, South African band the Parlatones are about to shake things up on a global scale. And having recently seen them perform at a small little pub in Kings Cross, Water Rats Theatre, I can vouch that they are not only great on record but even better to see live.
Things have really been moving for this band recently. The Parlatones will no doubt look back at the years of 2006 and 2007 as groundbreaking. Scoring a record deal with Universal Music is no mean feat. Doubling it up with an agency deal with Primary UK is also impressive. Having also finished recording their album, "A World Next Door to Yours", and also recently releasing the single, "Beautiful", it is an understatement to say that The Parlatones have been busy in recent times.When you see The Parlatones play live, it is clear who their influences are. In the cosy, intimate and pubby Water Rats environment, I depicted a range of influences from Radiohead and Travis to Coldplay. But underpinning The Parlatones' slightly commercial sound is an indie edge. They are not quite Kings Of Leon, but they are certainly not Creed.The Parlatones play like music is theatre, which is probably how it should be treated all the time with live performances. They have a number of stand-out tunes, including "Louder Than Bombs" and "Dragonflies and Astronauts", and both these videos are available to the public to watch on their official website. For me though, it is "Beautiful" that really makes an impact and it is no wonder that it was chosen by the band as a single. The video clip is also strangely compelling, and even features exciting special effects.Definitely a band to watch out for in the coming months, I recommend that you either sample The Parlatones at a live concert or by buying one of their records.
This latest collection from label Record Kicks is easy on the ear.
If it doesn't have you dreaming of better days in the snap of a second, there is something wrong with you. This record is an aphrodisiac for the modern workplace.
From "The Young Patter" by the Baker Brothers and "Prophets Bound to Christ" by William Joseph Fowler & the Disciples, DJ Smoove mixes up a storm on record Act II. With the types of sounds that would be at home at a funk club in the funkiest of cities in the funkiest of countries, there is no denying that DJ Smoove is, for want of a better description, a cool cat.
A particularly favourite track of this reviewer is "Rags to Riches" by the Liberators, a fresh afro-funk act hailing from Sydney, Australia. The track is so rich with the sounds of Africa, it is a wonder it was not produced in, ummm, Africa.
The Diplomats of Solid Sound have been on my radar for a while, and so have Lack of Afro. So it does not surprise me that the Lack of Afro remix of the Diplomat's tune "Give Me One More Chance", is an outright classic.
Similarly to a lot of the new releases from the team at label Record Kicks, this is highly recommended!

My theme is a woodsy bear type den.
I am a 24' diameter fully furnished Yurt. I come with 2 queen sized beds and a full bathroom with a 48" shower. I am kept cool in the afternoon and warm at night with ductless heat pump. I have a large skylight for watching the stars at night and the clouds passing by in the morning. The fan is uniquely themed moose and bears. Oh did I say bears, lots of bears to keep Yogi company. The front covered deck is a nice 8' x 10' relaxing all wood area to view the 40 foot ceders and 60 foot redwoods. I have 5 steps so it has a little elevation to it.

My first ever attempt of computer art, using the computer paint brush. Originally a tree, and I painted it into a prehistoric bird. And photoshopped on a carp. I caught from Yateley North lake.
When I was a child I used to hear the oldies telling stories at party's, and I think I sometimes got confused. The teacher once asked what is the difference between an African elephant, and an Indian elephant. Which I instantly put my hand up aged about nine, and replied with, "The African elephant, as a bigger penis than the Indian elephant, it sometimes drags on the floor, that's how you know when the big males are coming, because of the dust clouds they make."
In religious education there was an ornament of Jesus on the side. One winter I dressed him in my Action Man white army ski patrol outfit, white hat, combat knife, and escape back pack, because he looked cold. The teacher gave me instant detention, a 1,000 lines for that. I think it's because the ski's didn't fit him. Though if he had that knife when the Romans turned up to arrest him, the Bible could of been a totally different story.
Though I have always said. Jesus would have a sense of humour. My art teacher Mr Cameron told me when he was up on the cross. The man had been tortured in the worse way possible that you can imagine, but Jesus still managed to keep his sense of humour. He called out to one of his disciples and said, "You know what John, I can see your house from up here". Now I don't know if that is a true story or not, but it was Mr Cameron who taught me in life what a lady boy was. Saving me embarrassment in my future years, preventing me waking up with an erection that didn't belong to me. Them Lady boys can be better looking than some women, causing total confusion on the drunken eye. We learnt more about biology off of Mr Cameron, than off of any of our biology teachers.
Though Mr Cameron did get arrested by the Police in the end for painting female six formers naked, late after school hours. He was paying them good money apparently. Before you misunderstand. I would like to add he never went on to become a future British Prime Minister. The only similarity the two of them have. They were once both hippies, both went to a posh college, and both smoked pot around about the same time.

Tasmanian Walking Company Releases Winter Experiences Program
The Tasmanian Walking Company has released its winter experiences program which, for the first time, includes the opportunity to privately charter the company's luxury yacht, Lady Eugenie.
The 23 metre yacht was acquired last year as part of the Tasmanian Walking Company's newest experience, the Wineglass Bay Sail Walk, which has just finished its spring/summer season. It is now available for groups to privately charter along with a full crew so they can walk some of the most pristine trails in Tasmania during winter and stay on board the cosy luxury yacht each night.
The yacht offers five comfortable guest rooms accommodating two people per room, catering for groups of up to 10 people. By night, guests can relax in a spacious lounge and dining area and be treated to meals prepared by the crew, featuring fresh local Tasmanian produce and wine.
Charter rates start from $2,990 for 24 hours including the highly experienced yacht crew and walking guides, all food and beverages and National Parks Passes.
In addition, Tasmania's iconic Cradle Mountain Huts Walk will once again be available during the winter months, allowing intrepid hikers to choose from seven departures throughout June, July and August where they can experience this stunning wintery landscape.
The 8-day Cradle Mountain Huts Winter Walk will trek through the World Heritage-listed Cradle Mountain – Lake St Clair National Park along the Overland Track in small groups of no more than 10 with two highly-experienced guides.
During the winter months, the high peaks along the Overland Track, as well as certain sections along the trail, receive fresh snowfalls, turning the Cradle Mountain National Park into a stunning winter wonderland.
Highlights of walking the Overland Track in winter including fewer people, crisp winter air, frozen lakes and frequent snowfalls which change the vistas of the surrounding landscapes.
Walkers will also often come face to snout with wombats, echidnas, wallabies and Tasmanian Devils all making the area their home.
Not for the faint hearted, the experience requires a high level of fitness for this multi-day walking experience with pack weights of around 12kg-15kg. The itinerary is designed to enable walkers to go at a slower pace to account for changing weather conditions.
Each evening's accommodation is in one of the private huts nestled away in this remarkable Park, including Barn Bluff Hut, Pine Forest Moor Hut, Pelion Hut, Kia Ora Hut and Windy Ridge Hut. They are exclusively for guests of the Cradle Mountain Huts Walk and provide a welcome haven at the end of each day with piping hot showers, drying rooms for damp clothes and boots, and cosy heating, along with a hearty three-course dinner and fine Tasmanian wines.
The Winter Walks cost $3450 per person twin share and include two experienced walking guides, all accommodation (excluding the first night before departure), food and beverages, National Parks passes, transfers to and from Launceston, and the use of a waterproof jacket and pack for the duration of the walk.
