Call (800) 863-5312 to Speak with an Arizona 18-Wheeler Accident Attorney for Free
An accident involving an 18-wheeler can leave a victim with life-altering injuries or even result in death.

At Zinda Law Group, our semi-truck accident lawyers have the knowledge and resource necessary to help you pursue maximum compensation for medical bills, lost income, property damage, pain and suffering, and all the other ways the accident cost you. And as one of our clients, you will pay nothing unless we win your case. That's our No Fee Guarantee.
If you or a loved one has been injured in an 18-wheeler wreck, call Zinda Law Group at (800) 863-5312 to receive a free consultation with an experienced Arizona truck accident attorney.
Where We Serve
Many people don't know where to turn after an accident, but the Arizona truck injury attorneys at Zinda Law Group are just a phone call away. We serve the entire state of Arizona, including Phoenix, Tucson, Mesa, Chandler, Scottsdale, Glendale, Gilbert, and Tempe.
Negligence Behind the Wheel
Trucking accidents can be the fault of the truck driver or the company that hired them. The driver could be driving while fatigued, using a cell phone, under the influence, or driving too fast.
There are many ways a truck driver can be negligent on the roads. If you think you may have a claim, call our Arizona truck accident attorneys to discuss the details of your case for free.
Trucking Company Irresponsibility
Trucking companies could also potentially be at fault for the accident. Poor training may have put an inexperienced driver on Arizona's roadways. Another possibility might be the company's poor maintenance on the semi-truck in question. This can lead to faulty brakes, worn tires, or overloaded trucks playing a key role in the unfolding tragedy.
If your accident was the result of a truck driver or company's negligence, you may be entitled to financial compensation. Call us today at (800) 863-5312 to receive your free consultation.

Race & Ethnicity
While declining shares give police forces positive marks for their use of force, treatment of racial groups and officer accountability, there is little support for cuts in spending on local policing.
The term Latinx has emerged in recent years as a gender-neutral alternative to the pan-ethnic terms Latino, Latina and Hispanic. However, awareness of Latinx is relatively low among the population it is meant to describe.
We are committed to hearing and addressing the experiences of people of color—as well as confronting racism and working for a better America.


text: There's transformation taking place in Northwest Indiana, and it's found in the big lake as well as little known "treasures in our backyard." No wonder this generation of youth is learning to love the great outdoors. No better example than a unique watershed alliance launched in 1996 by the Unity Foundation of La Porte County. Called the Trail Creek Watershed Partnership, this consists of 59,000 acres of land that drains into Trail Creek and smaller tributaries emptying into Lake Michigan. There are many heroes here, but the environmental warrior that is dedicated to getting kids to love nature is Nicole Messacar. This lifelong resident and graduate of IU's SPEA program just completed her 11th year introducing Trail Creek and its tributaries to over 6,000 youth. This outreach program called "Trail Creek Week" during September featured a canoe race, plus educational activities touching the lives of nearly 1000 kids and adults. Add to encouraging kids to splash around in the mud or take water samples was her latest outreach program for youth along the Kankakee River. Through education, grants and a cost-sharing program, this watershed is being transformed through "best management practices" that include planting cover crops, building bioswales, rain gardens, and other initiatives. This educator's goal: "Encourage people to know their impact on the environment."

It will happen to 25% of us. It happened to 1.4 million women in the last year. And it will happen on average 50 times before we go to the police.
Domestic abuse is often reported like this; in cold, hard statistics that never seem to shock us as much as they should. In the documentary Behind Closed Doors, the BBC tells the stories behind the statistics, following three women – Sabrina, Jemma and Helen – who have bravely waived their right to anonymity to expose how domestic abuse crimes are investigated. The documentary follows the women from the moment they contact Thames Valley police through to their journey to justice.
The documentary starts with a woman screaming. She's being beaten to death by her partner and has managed to call 999 and throw the phone under the bed as he continues to hit her. "You're almost resigning yourself," she recalls, "to 'This is it, I'm going to die. Let it be the last punch, let it stop and I won't feel it anymore.'"
Sabrina's abuser pleaded guilty to actual bodily harm (ABH) . Despite the six hour beating, she did not have any broken bones or stab wounds that would have qualified for a more serious GBH charge. Paul Hopkins, her boyfriend and abuser, was sentenced to two out of a possible five years in jail and will be out in May, having served less than half of his sentence.
Helen doesn't remember the first time Lawrence hit her. "He was so nice 90% of the time but so absolutely vile 10% of the time," she remembers. He hit her as she was leaving to scatter her mother's ashes. She had to stay in to hide the bruises from her family.
The above image shows the imprint of his shoe on her face. Her 12-year-old son had to run for help, not for the first time. When it came to the trial, Lawrence jumped bail and fled to America. When he returned to the country, he pleaded guilty and was fined £1,700 – less than a month's salary on the minimum living wage.
Dwayne punched, kicked and strangled Jemma until she passed out. He'd wait for her to regain consciousness each time before he started again. He continues to send her threatening text messages throughout the year: 'You leave me? Someone leaves you. How about that. I'm sick, so what.' Lawrence ultimately only received four weeks in prison and a £1000 fine. Because he'd already served time on remand, he was released after two weeks.
'Amazingly, these are not the most shocking images in the documentary. The moment when Sabrina falls to the floor in tears when she hears her partner is being sent to prison, is the moment that took my breath away. She's not crying from relief, she is crying because she loves him.'
"I want to wrap my arms around him and tell him I'll be here when you get out," she sobs. "I'll be here and we can try again."
In another moment Helen is shown on CCTV footage jeopardising her own case by meeting up with her abusive partner Lawrence for lunch with their young son. Why? "He's like a drug," she explains.
The Detective Inspector on the case reports that 43% of victims will be a victim of another attack within a year, and most of the perpetrators will be the same partner. It's hard for those of us who have not been victims of domestic violence to understand why. Why would she stay?
Produced and directed by Anna Hall, the Behind Closed Doors documentary begins to unpick that question. It highlights the intense complexities of these women's situations and how years of psychological abuse has stripped them of self-esteem, making it extremely difficult to just 'walk away'. Olivia Colman who narrates the documentary told Rebecca Reid at the Telegraph:
"I want all children to be empowered, to know that they can break the cycle. I want everyone to know what they deserve in relationships: that they can demand equality and kindness. Because everyone will have a relationship at some point in their life. It's what we all do, every day, and we need to know how to do it. At the moment, the odds aren't great… and that's not good enough. Not for my children. Not for anybody."
Jemma is now finishing a degree in Social & Political studies. Sabrina has decided she does not want to be reconciled with Paul. Helen realises she doesn't love Lawrence anymore. But their scars are still evident and you know that their experiences have changed them forever.
Your thoughts wander to those other women who are about to meet their Paul, their Lawrence, their Dwayne. I'd like to see another episode, or a series even, examining the impact of domestic abuse and why people are still, literally, getting away with murder.

Caprici di Diablo is a song by Yngwie Malmsteen's Rising Force, and is considered one of the hardest songs in Rock Band for the guitar, along with songs like "Thrasher", "Constant Motion", "Warriors of Time" and "Surfing With The Alien". The songs verse and riffs is mainly hard HO/PO lines, and some of the solos are made by very fast decending triplets. The drum part is not very hard, but be ready to use your foot, and the bass part is pretty challenging, but not one of the hardest. There is no vocals in this song, so you can't play it if a vocalist is in the band at the moment.
This song is a DLC, and is in the DLC pack "Yngwie Malmsteen Pack 01" (with the songs Damnation Game and Red Devil).

There's nothing bland about this B&B, where the mix of private client and commercial work will ensure you enjoy your stay.
A fine wine
Celebrating its 286th birthday in 2019, Reading's Blandy & Blandy is older than any of the magic circle firms. It may not be anywhere near as massive as those international titans, but Blandy's looking pretty good for its age, carving out a kingdom in its home town of Reading and the surrounding area. "We're very much at the forefront for private client work especially," trainees pointed out. The firm has a well-established commercial practice too, and is top-ranked by Chambers UK for environment, family and planning in the Thames Valley. It also picks up rankings for employment, licensing, real estate, corporate and litigation.
Beyond its Reading stronghold, Blandy has small offices in Henley-on-Thames and London. We say small – the firm's recently outgrown its Henley digs, and is relocating to a larger space that was previously home to a fashion store. Joint managing partner Tim Clark tells us: "Blandy has a very strong basis on which to build a position as the firm of choice for individuals with a broad range of needs, be they private or business." As for what this means for trainees, Clark suggests the firm is "hoping to offer more opportunities for hands-on interaction with clients, which is really important at a firm our size. If you haven't had that experience during the training contract then your training isn't complete."
"We're very much at the forefront for private client work especially."
At present, all of the firm's trainees work from the Reading office – some trainees may also do a seat in the Henley office. Most of our interviewees had experience working with Blandy before kicking off their training contract, whether that was a paralegal position or a week-long internship – though neither is essential for applicants to have under their belt. Candidates should have a strong stomach for spooky goings on, however: legend has it the firm's Georgian headquarters are haunted by the ghost of Mary Blandy, daughter of the firm's founder, though we're yet to interview a trainee who's witnessed the spirit.
Trainees are allocated their first seat by the firm; six weeks or so before each rotation, they're asked to provide their seat preferences in ranked order. "The firm does its best to consider what we want," trainees agreed.
Business is booming in the property practice: it achieved a 19% increase in new instructions between 2017 and 2018, even in a market riddled with Brexit uncertainty. There's both commercial and residential work on offer here – trainees normally commit to one side, but can get ad-hoc experience in the other. "I pretty much acted as a qualified solicitor running files by myself," one told us. "I was drafting lease provisions for commercial units and responding to client queries." Blandy's clientele includes the Englefield Estate Trust and the University of Reading; the firm also recently helped local gin bar The Leafy Elephant secure a ten-year premises lease within a regeneration project. Hopefully laying off the booze in work hours, trainees on the residential property side get "good practice using the Land Registry and running sale or purchase transactions – it was stressful at the time but I learned a lot." Property is a popular seat because its work links to various other departments at Blandy.
Dispute resolution is one such department: property litigation is one of its major prongs, along with contentious probate and commercial disputes. The latter can involve companies or individuals. Blandy recently advised on a £1 million dispute over work done on Westfield London's FirstLight Cycle studio. Our sources worked more in property litigation than the other subsections, and trainees also take charge of debt recovery matters. That involves "sending out client care letters, drafting letters before action and responses, and in some cases thinking about enforcement proceedings. Helping with billing may be quite dry, but it's a great chance to run files on your own." On larger cases, trainees get the chance to draft witness statements and take minutes at client meetings. They described disputes over wills and probate as "depressing but very interesting," while commercial litigation involves "sitting in on lots of client calls" and contentious property matters offer more chances for "hands-on drafting."
"I had massive amounts of client contact from the outset."
Blandy's private client practice has built up a strong reputation in the Thames Valley, earning a top-tier Chambers High Net Worth ranking for its troubles, and in 2018 the firm acquired the private client wing of Reading rival Clarkslegal. Trainees had no trouble with their time in the seat: "I had massive amounts of client contact from the outset. That actually trickled off later in the seat, so I could get more experience in other areas." The day-to-day revolves around wills, probate and powers of attorney, with trainees "basically running files" and moving towards more Court of Protection work as the seat progresses. They also get out of the office a fair bit to view properties for probate matters.
Private clients, i.e. large landowners, pop up in planning too. The team also represents local government bodies including Reading Borough Council and residential developers like Bewley Homes. "I liked that the work had transactional elements like Section 106 agreements, as well as contentious work with the possibility of judicial review or enforcement," a trainee said of the seat. Blandy recently represented a private individual in dealings with West Sussex County Council over construction of a bypass planned to run through the client's land. Trainees in the department "review judicial review documentation and draft grounds for planning appeals."
Corporate and commercial is classed as one department at Blandy, and trainees in this seat see a healthy mix of both. GDPR has dominated the workflow lately, and interviewees spent their days "amending terms and conditions and privacy notices for new and existing clients to make sure they were compliant." The team also found time to advise on deals like boarding school Padworth College's sale to for-profit educational group Inspiring Futures, and to act for shareholders of Reading-based tech publishing company Science Media Partners during its acquisition by Jersey events company Terrapinn.
Chari-tee total
Trainees were quick to praise their supervisors, no matter which department they sat in. "My desk is physically covered in files and I feel very comfortable asking what to prioritise," one revealed. Most had "fairly regular" catch-ups with both seat supervisors and the mentor they get for the duration of their training contract, who's available "to discuss any concerns over coffee." As for the big picture, there's now a staff group to discuss any concerns or ideas for the firm's future.
"Lots of history, which we're quite proud of."
Blandy's two Reading offices both sit in the centre of town. 1 Friar Street is the OG base and has "lots of history, which we're quite proud of. There are photos on the wall of when it was bombed in the war." The disputes, corporate/commercial and employment teams work from the "quite modern" 33 Blagrave Street. Beyond surface level, trainees didn't notice many differences in the office environments: "What took me aback was how chatty and approachable everyone is. The partners really aren't scary and encourage you to get involved in the firm's extracurricular activities."
A lot of those extracurriculars are charity events. The firm 'adopts' two charities each year – currently Age UK and the League of Friends for the local Royal Berkshire Hospital – and runs regular cake sales, lunches and other activities to raise money. "Every so often we'll do more spontaneous social things after work," and though sometimes "they're not as well attended" there are occasions when Blandyers will band together and rock up to a bar. There's also an annual Christmas party and "mystery" summer event, most recently a boat trip and pub lunch.
There were some complaints that Blandy isn't as giving when it comes to trainee salary, and many felt "it could be better given what other firms in the area pay." The £23,000 starting wage is indeed on the low side, though we heard there is a discretionary bonus scheme as "a nice little extra." As time is money, it's also worth highlighting that trainees typically finished work at 5.30pm and "there really is no expectation to stay any later." The very latest finish we heard of was a one-off 8.30pm before a hearing, and one source declared: "I could stay until 10pm every night with my workload, but that's just not the ethos here."
Blandy's recently made more of an effort to offer trainees jobs quickly, to improve historically up-and-down retention rates. Both of the firm's qualifiers stayed on in 2019.
How to get a Blandy & Blandy training contract
Training contract deadline (2022): June 2020
Work experience deadline: January 2020
Work experience
Blandy & Blandy usually offers unpaid one-week placements in the spring and summer. Interns get to sample a range of practices and do some legal work. The scheme is open to second-year and final-year law students, final-year non-law students and post-grads. Accommodation and travel expenses are not provided. Hours are 9.30am to 5.30pm, with an hour for lunch.
Assessment day
Candidates should apply via Blandy's online application form and provide a covering letter. Around 12 to 16 applicants are invited to the assessment day in July or August. There isn't usually an interview, unless the assessment day is inconclusive. Candidates are given three written exercises on three areas of law – for example, writing a letter to a 'client' based on information given. After these individual written exercises, there are group exercises which are designed to assess personality. A recent example was having to argue for or against inviting particular people to a dinner party, then deciding as a group who to invite. Another exercise was putting together a two-minute advert about the firm, based on marketing information supplied.
How can you impress?
Excellent academics are important – a 2:1 degree and decent A levels. Recruiters are also trying to find out whether you're a natural 'Blandy's person' – someone who's able to demonstrate the three core values of approachability, integrity and excellence. The firm looks for good all-rounders, so varied interests and previous work experience on your CV (anything from shelf-stacking to charity volunteering) should count in your favour.
Interview with joint-managing partner Tim Clark
Chambers Student: What have been the highlights of the last year at the firm?
Tim Clark: We're just about to open a new office in Henley. Two years ago we took over a very old, Dickensian space from another firm; the new office looks over the river with a view of the regatta. It's a very exciting project and we've done quite a bit of moving people around to ensure our teams work together more effectively. Our trainees have been very helpful there, as they can identify what's going on.
One of the things we're planning to do is introduce a new staff group, which again trainees will play an important role in. They go into different departments and can see their different ways of working. We put a lot of value in our trainees, they have a lot of very good ideas and they're quite possibly the future of the firm.
CS: So what are the plans for the new staff group?
TC: The aim is to provide a forum for our team to talk constructively, develop ideas and put forward any concerns they may have or positive ideas for enhancing the experiences of our clients. Meetings will take place once a month, and every other month a manager will attend to listen to the ideas put forward: it's going to be very much a two-way street.
CS: How is Brexit affecting the firm? How is it affecting your clients' business?
TC: In the commercial property sector we've seen the rate of decision making slow down as a result of the Brexit process; but Blandy has a broad range of clients and we're perhaps not feeling it as much as some firms. We're members of the international Law Firm Network and our continental cousins are very interested in how things are turning out. As of now we're pretty confident we'll be able to deal with any Brexit consequences and there may be indeed by opportunities for British lawyers as a result of it.
CS: So what's the firm's current business strategy? There's been expansion in Henley, do you foresee further growth?
TC: Blandy has a very strong basis on which to build a position as the firm of choice for individuals with a broad range of needs, be they private or business. We've been around since 1733 and while competitors have gone in one direction to concentrate on the private client or commercial side, we can service a wide range of any given client needs.
CS: How might the training contract in particular develop in future?
TC: We're hoping to offer more opportunities for hands-on interaction with clients, which is really important at a firm our size. If you haven't had that experience during the training contract then your training isn't complete. The trend in recent years in the legal market in general is that trainees are becoming more and more remote from the firm's clients and we're not subscribing to that. Things don't immediately pick up only when you've qualified!
CS: A firm's character or culture is an important subject for our readers. What would you tell them about the culture of Blandy?
TC: It comes back to the culture of interest in client needs and having an inquisitive nature in that regard. We want to engender on applicants that we're not people who sit behind a desk all day or meet a client and determine 'this is what the job is', we aim to understand the broader impact of their legal issues on their life. Understanding one thing about a client might lead to helping them with another.
CS: What makes a strong applicant to Blandy & Blandy?
TC: Applicants with exactly that approach: an interest in people and an inquisitive nature on top of the strong academic record that all firms look for. Relevant work experience undoubtedly helps but we've had trainees arrive with none of that and then performed brilliantly. We're not exclusively hiring paralegals, we know all our trainees will hit the ground running.
CS: Do you have any advice for our readers who are about to enter the legal profession?
TC: Stay curious, as being interested in people is what makes a good lawyer. Getting beyond the immediate problem and working out what's important to people is only possible if you make the time for it. Try not to focus solely on the immediate issue and remember the big picture. Academic training focuses largely on the detail of the law, and right so, but people come to law firms with practical problems which the law sits on top of.
CS: Is there anything else we haven't already talked about that our readers should know about Blandy & Blandy?
TC: The firm may have been founded in 1733 but we're constantly evolving because we've had to. Don't be too distracted by that statistic – though do it bear it in mind, because it's quite impressive!

Python thin client allows your Python applications to work with Apache Ignite clusters via Binary Client Protocol. This thin client is abbreviated as pyignite.
A thin client is a lightweight Ignite client that connects to the cluster via a standard socket connection. It does not start in JVM process (Java is not required at all), does not become a part of the cluster topology, never holds any data or used as a destination of compute grid calculations.
What it does is it simply establishes a socket connection to a standard Ignite node and performs all operations through that node.
For more information, visit:
- Initialization and Configuration to learn how to configure and obtain references of the thin client APIs currently supported.
- Key-Value Operations to learn which JCache APIs are supported.
- SQL Queries to learn how to use SQL with the Java thin client API.
- Binary Types to learn how to use the Ignite Binary Objects API with the Python thin client API.
- Security to see the thin client has enough protection to connect to an enterprise Ignite cluster over Internet.
Quick Start
- Python 3.4 or above.
- Latest version of Apache Ignite.
You can install
pyignite from PyPI:
$ pip install pyignite
Mac OS Installation
You might need to use
pip3 install pyignitecommand to complete the installation on Mac OS
Running an Example
After installing
pyignite, let's run an example using existing Python examples that are delivered with every Ignite distribution for the sake of quick getting started.
- Run Apache Ignite server.

This bar is great. It's got a less aggressive knurling that doesn't destroy the hands. No center knurling makes the bar more forgiving during explosive higher rep excercises.
The bushings aren't the best on this bar. There is some slight friction with the spin but for the average person doing olympic lifts it's not going to create any resistance. It's not a competition bar afterall. The black coating on the bar looks nice but scuffs easily.
All in all a great bar
What other bars is it comparable to?
Our bars are made to be racked in quality J-Cups, so feel free to do so!

James Darwin Stephens, Lieutenant Colonel Infantry, United States Army Reserve, Army Serial Number 0-359676. Plaintiff-appellant, v. Stanley Resor, Secretary of Army, Department of Defense, United States of America, Defendant-appellee, 437 F.2d 1207 (6th Cir. 1971)Annotate this Case
C. Kilmer Combs, Pikeville, Ky., argued and on brief, for plaintiff-appellant.
J. T. Frankenberger, Asst. U. S. Atty., Lexington, Ky., for defendant-appellee; Eugene E. Siler, Jr., U. S. Atty., Lexington, Ky., on brief.
Before PHILLIPS, Chief Judge, and EDWARDS and CELEBREZZE, Circuit Judges.
In this case plaintiff-appellant sought to relitigate in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky the same issues pertaining to his claim to a disability retirement pension from the United States Army that had previously been submitted to and denied by the United States Court of Claims, Stephens v. United States, 358 F.2d 951, 174 Ct. Cl. 365 (1966). The District Judge dismissed the complaint on the government's motion, holding it barred by the doctrine of res judicata. We affirm for the reasons set forth in the District Judge's memorandum opinion, dated March 31, 1970.
In doing so, however, we wish to be explicit in pointing out that this decision in no way bears on or adjudicates appellant's claim to pension rights as of age 60.
It would appear from the face of these proceedings that appellant was credited by the Army at the time of his discharge with 19 years and 9 months and 11 days of the 20 years of active Army service normally required for a pension at age 60. The issues raised by the complaint below do not require us to review the Army's accounting of appellant's active service time. However, on the record before us he appears to have had a somewhat distinguished record in combat in World War II and he certainly has had a variety of physical difficulties while engaged in Army service. Absent additional facts which are not shown in this record, it would seem exceedingly strange for this combat veteran of infantry army service to be discharged by his government within three months of having accumulated 20 years of active service necessary for pension rights to vest when he becomes 60 years of age.
The government brief in this appeal states:
" [N]owhere in said pleadings is there either an express or implied request that the court below make a determination of appellant's eligibility to receive retirement benefits at age 60, regardless of disability."
Affirmance of the judgment of the District Court dismissing the complaint in this case does not pass upon or prejudice in any way appellant's right to file an action to establish his pension rights as of age 60. Nor does it in any way affect his right to pursue any administrative remedy which he may have under applicable statutes or Army regulations in the meantime.
The judgment of the District Court is affirmed.

Reading Centers Buying Guide
A cozy reading center is a staple to any early learning classroom. It encourages students to work creatively, read and explore literature and language arts activities. But, how you furnish your reading center can make a big difference in whether or not it motivates students to learn. Here a few tips on how to design and furnish an effective reading center:
- Make a small book shelf, mobile book cart or book browser the focal point of the reading center. A book cart with slotted or slanted shelving is ideal, because it's easy to prominently display and organize books on it. Slotted or slanted shelving is more accessible to little ones than a deep book bin or flat shelving.
- Arrange soft seating, such as oversized pillows, bean bags or cubes, around the book cart. This gives the reading center a cozy, safe feel. Studies have shown that comfortable seating promotes student focus and creativity.
- Think about using a plush or colorful rug as a way to mark off the area as a quiet, designated learning space. A rug also provides added space for students to lay.
- Consider a comfortable reading bench with storage compartments for books and other media. These are a great option if space is limited.
- A rocking chair is great for kids who need to squirm or expend energy while reading.
- Use open, colorful bins in your bench or book cart's storage compartments to store stuffed animals, art materials or other supplies you'd like in the reading center. This minimizes clutter and encourages students to keep the area organized.
- Clearly label shelves and other storage areas for students; make sure all books and materials are visible and within reach.
- Choose vinyl for any seat or bench padding, as it's durable, easy to clean and comes in a variety of textures and colors.

The sense of smell is an emotional and experiential one, as opposed to survival-based or biological. Our perception of what smells good and what smells bad is determined through context and the power of suggestion; as much as enjoying things that smell pleasant is a learned behavior, so is enjoying things that do not. Nobody is born craving durian, and people do not choose their skin-care products based on which ones smell the worst. All I'm saying is that… maybe they should?
Most people, when looking for something with which to slather their faces, opt for something that smells nice, whatever "nice" means to them. For me, a product that smells "nice" is an instant red flag. It's Gandalf with a big stick in one hand and a sword in the other, telling a demon, "You shall not pass." And he's right, I won't pass, because in my experience — and I have had a lot of experience — there is nothing more likely to rile up my highly reactive skin than to put something that smells like a flower or a fruit right on it.
Artificial fragrance or bespoke concoction of five carefully-chosen essential oils, it doesn't matter. Lab-grown lavender listed as "fragrance (parfum)" or freshly-harvested orange flower blossom essence extract water, my skin can't seem to make the distinction. I have been forced to unlearn the very foundation of what product formulators and my 10-to-20 million olfactory receptors have both been trying to tell me for a very long time, which is that good-smelling things are good on my face. They're not.
And really, which would you prefer: smelling the potent, results-driven ingredients that are doing the work to give you better skin but might sort of smell like a foot, or an aromatherapeutic "blend" that's in there for no reason other than to trick your brain into thinking you're relaxed? I know where I stand. When I stopped asking myself, "Does this serum make me feel like I live in a spa?" and started asking, "Will this toner make me gag a little when I'm hungover?" instead, only then did I see real results.
These are the products that have worked wonders for my skin, and you better believe they don't smell very good. I know what that means (and you will, too, soon enough): It's working.

Acne affects people of all ages. Read this article to gain a deeper understanding of what causes acne, and how you can treat it. You can diminish the unwanted effects of acne by educating yourself and treating it in the appropriate way.
Many people see no problem with popping pimples. If you feel like you absolutely must pop a pimple, you should first cleanse your hands and nails thoroughly. This prevents contaminating the open area with dirt and bacteria. Using responsible actions when you have the need to pop your acne will save you from further blemishes.
When you have a pimple, it is best not to pick at it. Picking at your pimples only leads to more breakouts, because you promote the spreading of the bacteria. It can also cause nasty scabs and scars that are harder to cover up than the zit is itself.
Make sure you keep your pillowcases clean. Consider it! Think about how much you toss and turn each night. Always wash your pillows and use a fresh one each night.
Try to avoid overly stressful situations as much as you can. Stress does not cause one to develop acne, but it can make it worse.
Caffeine found in various beverages and foods can have an adverse effect on the skin and can lead to acne. If you're able to cut back some on caffeine consumption, your acne might improve.
Believe it or not, spending time in the sun can help clear your acne. The oil in your skin will dry up under the sun. Initially, the issue may get worse since the natural oils will be at the skin's surface. Later, the skin will get drier. Within a week or two, your drier skin may not show as much acne.
Make sure you avoid mixing different acne creams together. Many people mix up acne creams because they are not sure which one works best. Acne creams have different chemicals that may interact and damage your skin if they are mixed together.
Changing your linens on your bed can have amazing effects on your acne problems. When you sleep these oils transfer to your sheets and pillow cases. Then, they can make their way back onto your face. You should clean your sheets and pillow cases at least once a week to break the cycle.
When it seems that your acne will never go away, see if natural facial products make a positive difference. Many non-natural skin care products have a lot of harsh ingredients in them that make things worse for your skin. When you strip the skin of its natural oils, you are practically signing yourself up for blocked pores and acne. The ingredients in natural products help your skin to heal without any side effects.
Acne is not only limited to teenagers, as was said before. However, for many people, acne problems remain in adulthood. Educating yourself about skin care can help you achieve a regimen that is not only beneficial, but yields superb results.

20th Century Poetry #18: T. S. Eliot
T. S. Eliot (1888-1965)
One way to understand where poetry is now is to see where it was a hundred years ago. Every Saturday I'll be posting not the best, but at least the most representative, poems from the last century, where we can see poetry constantly changing. You can read the other entries here.
T. S. Eliot at tseliot.com, Wiki, Poetry Foundation, T. S. Eliot Foundation
This blog began seven years ago with my essay "What Eliot Means to Me," and as I say there, my debts to Eliot's life and work are beyond anything I can articulate, whether as a guide to art and poetry, or as solace during times of crisis. While it's impossible to come up with a few pages of his "best" poetry, these excerpts from Four Quartets come close:
from "Burnt Norton"
Other echoes
Inhabit the garden. Shall we follow?
Quick, said the bird, find them, find them,
Round the corner. Through the first gate,
Into our first world, shall we follow
The deception of the thrush? Into our first world.
There they were, dignified, invisible,
Moving without pressure, over the dead leaves,
In the autumn heat, through the vibrant air,
And the bird called, in response to
The unheard music hidden in the shrubbery,
And the unseen eyebeam crossed, for the roses
Had the look of flowers that are looked at.
There they were as our guests, accepted and accepting.
So we moved, and they, in a formal pattern,
Along the empty alley, into the box circle,
To look down into the drained pool.
Dry the pool, dry concrete, brown edged,
And the pool was filled with water out of sunlight,
And the lotos rose, quietly, quietly,
The surface glittered out of heart of light,
And they were behind us, reflected in the pool.
Then a cloud passed, and the pool was empty.
Go, said the bird, for the leaves were full of children,
Hidden excitedly, containing laughter.
Go, go, go, said the bird: human kind
Cannot bear very much reality.
Time past and time future
What might have been and what has been
Point to one end, which is always present.
from "East Coker"
O dark dark dark. They all go into the dark,
The vacant interstellar spaces, the vacant into the vacant,
The captains, merchant bankers, eminent men of letters,
The generous patrons of art, the statesmen and the rulers,
Distinguished civil servants, chairmen of many committees,
Industrial lords and petty contractors, all go into the dark,
And dark the Sun and Moon, and the Almanach de Gotha
And the Stock Exchange Gazette, the Directory of Directors,
And cold the sense and lost the motive of action.
And we all go with them, into the silent funeral,
Nobody's funeral, for there is no one to bury.
I said to my soul, be still, and let the dark come upon you
Which shall be the darkness of God. As, in a theatre,
The lights are extinguished, for the scene to be changed
With a hollow rumble of wings, with a movement of darkness on darkness,
And we know that the hills and the trees, the distant panorama
And the bold imposing facade are all being rolled away—
Or as, when an underground train, in the tube, stops too long between stations
And the conversation rises and slowly fades into silence
And you see behind every face the mental emptiness deepen
Leaving only the growing terror of nothing to think about;
Or when, under ether, the mind is conscious but conscious of nothing—
I said to my soul, be still, and wait without hope
For hope would be hope for the wrong thing; wait without love,
For love would be love of the wrong thing; there is yet faith
But the faith and the love and the hope are all in the waiting.
Wait without thought, for you are not ready for thought:
So the darkness shall be the light, and the stillness the dancing.
Whisper of running streams, and winter lightning.
The wild thyme unseen and the wild strawberry,
The laughter in the garden, echoed ecstasy
Not lost, but requiring, pointing to the agony
Of death and birth.
So here I am, in the middle way, having had twenty years—
Twenty years largely wasted, the years of l'entre deux guerres
Trying to use words, and every attempt
Is a wholly new start, and a different kind of failure
Because one has only learnt to get the better of words
For the thing one no longer has to say, or the way in which
One is no longer disposed to say it. And so each venture
Is a new beginning, a raid on the inarticulate
With shabby equipment always deteriorating
In the general mess of imprecision of feeling,
Undisciplined squads of emotion. And what there is to conquer
By strength and submission, has already been discovered
Once or twice, or several times, by men whom one cannot hope
To emulate—but there is no competition—
There is only the fight to recover what has been lost
And found and lost again and again: and now, under conditions
That seem unpropitious. But perhaps neither gain nor loss.
For us, there is only the trying. The rest is not our business.
Home is where one starts from. As we grow older
The world becomes stranger, the pattern more complicated
Of dead and living. Not the intense moment
Isolated, with no before and after,
But a lifetime burning in every moment
And not the lifetime of one man only
But of old stones that cannot be deciphered.
There is a time for the evening under starlight,
A time for the evening under lamplight
(The evening with the photograph album).
Love is most nearly itself
When here and now cease to matter.
Old men ought to be explorers
Here or there does not matter
We must be still and still moving
Into another intensity
For a further union, a deeper communion
Through the dark cold and the empty desolation,
The wave cry, the wind cry, the vast waters
Of the petrel and the porpoise. In my end is my beginning.
from "The Dry Salvages"
I sometimes wonder if that is what Krishna meant—
Among other things—or one way of putting the same thing:
That the future is a faded song, a Royal Rose or a lavender spray
Of wistful regret for those who are not yet here to regret,
Pressed between yellow leaves of a book that has never been opened.
And the way up is the way down, the way forward is the way back.
You cannot face it steadily, but this thing is sure,
That time is no healer: the patient is no longer here.
When the train starts, and the passengers are settled
To fruit, periodicals and business letters
(And those who saw them off have left the platform)
Their faces relax from grief into relief,
To the sleepy rhythm of a hundred hours.
Fare forward, travellers! not escaping from the past
Into different lives, or into any future;
You are not the same people who left that station
Or who will arrive at any terminus,
While the narrowing rails slide together behind you;
And on the deck of the drumming liner
Watching the furrow that widens behind you,
You shall not think 'the past is finished'
Or 'the future is before us'.
At nightfall, in the rigging and the aerial,
Is a voice descanting (though not to the ear,
The murmuring shell of time, and not in any language)
'Fare forward, you who think that you are voyaging;
You are not those who saw the harbour
Receding, or those who will disembark.
Here between the hither and the farther shore
While time is withdrawn, consider the future
And the past with an equal mind.
At the moment which is not of action or inaction
You can receive this: "on whatever sphere of being
The mind of a man may be intent
At the time of death"—that is the one action
(And the time of death is every moment)
Which shall fructify in the lives of others:
And do not think of the fruit of action.
Fare forward.
O voyagers, O seamen,
You who came to port, and you whose bodies
Will suffer the trial and judgement of the sea,
Or whatever event, this is your real destination.'
So Krishna, as when he admonished Arjuna
On the field of battle.
Not fare well,
But fare forward, voyagers.
from "Little Gidding"
What we call the beginning is often the end
And to make an end is to make a beginning.
The end is where we start from. And every phrase
And sentence that is right (where every word is at home,
Taking its place to support the others,
The word neither diffident nor ostentatious,
An easy commerce of the old and the new,
The common word exact without vulgarity,
The formal word precise but not pedantic,
The complete consort dancing together)
Every phrase and every sentence is an end and a beginning,
Every poem an epitaph. And any action
Is a step to the block, to the fire, down the sea's throat
Or to an illegible stone: and that is where we start.
We die with the dying:
See, they depart, and we go with them.
We are born with the dead:
See, they return, and bring us with them.
The moment of the rose and the moment of the yew-tree
Are of equal duration. A people without history
Is not redeemed from time, for history is a pattern
Of timeless moments. So, while the light fails
On a winter's afternoon, in a secluded chapel
History is now and England.
With the drawing of this Love and the voice of this Calling
We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.
Through the unknown, remembered gate
When the last of earth left to discover
Is that which was the beginning;
At the source of the longest river
The voice of the hidden waterfall
And the children in the apple-tree
Not known, because not looked for
But heard, half-heard, in the stillness
Between two waves of the sea.
Quick now, here, now, always—
A condition of complete simplicity
(Costing not less than everything)
And all shall be well and
All manner of thing shall be well
When the tongues of flame are in-folded
Into the crowned knot of fire
And the fire and the rose are one.

Evolving your business strategy: from platform to experiences
July 25, 2019 @ 9:30 am - 1:00 pmFree
In this session, we will talk about how to evolve your strategy by bringing together platforms and experiences through the services you offer.
We will describe two different approaches to this: one that prioritises improving people's experience of using your services, and one that begins with systematically exploring what your platform might offer.
The second of these is utilised by some of the most successful companies in the world—but almost no-one talks about how to actually do it. It means taking a different view of platforms—not just as digital things, but seeing your organisation as a whole for a platform for what your users want to and are able to do. A platform to deliver value, helping you better connect with and expand your market.
This will be a two-part session, starting with a talk followed by a hands-on session where the guests will share some of the tools and ideas they have developed, and putting those thoughts into practice for your own company.
Who is this for?
This Masterclass is mainly for startup teams, founders, CEOs, Product Managers. Other people aiming at learning about this process will be welcomed.

Today's programme of Celtic music is in celebration of the life and work of Marianna Lines, who passed away earlier this week.
Marianna Lines worked with Pictish stones and ancient sites in Scotland from the time she emigrated in 1977 from her native Atlanta, Georgia, USA. She made an intensive, vigorous archaeo-artistic investigation into the field of Pictish Art, an art form indigenous to Scotland. With extensive field work, both traditional and experimental, Marianna developed an artistic and ecological process to capture the images in natural colour, often revealing details which have disappeared from view through erosion. Founder of the Pictish Arts Society in Scotland, she was also a printmaker, playwright, writer and designer.
Marianna was a great lover of Celtic music, always interested in hearing new artists and attending concerts all over Scotland. Here is some music we hope she would enjoy — and that you will, too.
The image shows a pair of Pictish creatures from the header of Marianna's Stoneline Designs web site.

A few days before the end of 2019, I like to review what this year has meant. There has been more good than bad and that is appreciated!
Above all, I feel very fortunate to be able to continue here, writing these lines for another year, after having made the most difficult professional decision of my life in 2017, becoming a freelance and working on my own, quitting a payroll job (but in which I had practically no life) and embarking on this beautiful adventure of the world of illustration, which is giving me so much.
So there it goes my good summary of 2019:
- I have learnt a system to create my patterns quicker in Adobe Illustrator (great!) and therefore I have started a new commercial line with them.
- I have sold some patterns at microstock websites (yuhu!)
- I have started uploading content to my YouTube channel, with tutorials about patterns and Illustrator (step by step!)
- I have learnt to use Camtasia to edit the videos for YouTube (another program!)
- I have done some portrait commissions, that were very well appreciated.
- I have finished few illustration courses that I loved, especially one about animation from Aaron Blaise, although I have to admit that animation is not for me.
- I have traveled to Carcabuey, in Córdoba, for the presentation of the book "No te vayas sin irte de mi", for which I designed the cover. I took my mom with me, so we had the chance of doing a great holiday together for a few days.
- Living in such a small village as mine could be limiting (in lots of things!), but fortunately the internet helps with it, and this year I had the opportunity of meeting two amazing artists, very kind and always willing to help their followers. Both of them have been really inspiring, so I have to mention them!. Thank you Terry Runyan (@terryrunyan) and Oksana (https://oksancia.com) for all your nice videos and your amazing talent!
Well, and in the personal side and not that professional:
- I have adopted a lovely cat, Lia
- I have started learning a new language, quite hard and difficult, but in which I can tell few things already.
- I keep recycling (a lot more) and reducing as much as I can the use of plastic.
- I also have reduced the meat consumption, eating more veggies instead.
- I planted some kiwi seeds and three little trees have grown like 5 cm (good!)
- I had beautiful roses in my garden this year
And for you, what is the summary of 2019?
Dear friends, I want to wish you all a Merry and Happy Christmas in the company of your beloved ones !
Merry Christmas!

Ho Chi Minh City authorities have entered a meeting with travel industry insiders with plans to discuss an initiative which would transform tourism in the southern metropolis into its leading economic driver, but instead were met with a barrage of complaints about the city's lackluster tourism.
In January, the Politburo issued a resolution setting a goal for tourism in Vietnam to "basically become the leading driver of the economy" by 2020, and "a real leading economic sector" by 2030, creating a pulse for the country's eco-social development.
The resolution came in the wake of the tourism industry's success in 2016, highlighted by Vietnam's welcoming a record-breaking 10 million international tourists and 62 million domestic visitors, with tourism having accounted for 6.8% of the national GDP.
Primary targets laid out by the resolution include mushrooming international and domestic tourist numbers to 20 million and 82 million, respectively, by 2020, while simultaneously increasing tourism's contribution to the national GDP to over 10%.
While the meeting was meant for the Ho Chi Minh City Party Committee to meet with representatives from local and international travel companies and discuss how to achieve the goals set in the Politburo resolution, it instead became a forum for industry insiders to complain of lackluster tourism offerings in the southern megacity.
Lack of highlights
Phan Xuan Anh, chairman of travel firm Du Ngoan Viet, said that a lack of highlights makes Ho Chi Minh City's tourism unappealing to visitors.
"Say what you want about Ben Thanh Market or Notre Dame Cathedral Basilica – but these are not places you must visit before you die," he said.
Anh cited warnings from international travelers saying that Ho Chi Minh City is losing its quintessential character and has become "a megacity where you can only see high-rises lining the streets."
He also pointed to several unnecessarily rigid regulations that have prevented Ho Chi Minh City from living up to its tourism potential, using the hurdles involved in transforming the coastal district of Can Gio into an attractive tourism destination.
"The district is classified as a border-island so you need permission to bring tourists there, even though it takes only ten minutes to travel by boat from Vung Tau to Can Gio," he said.
Duong Thanh Thuy, director of the shopping brand Miss Ao Dai, brought other issues to the table, complaining that there are too many shopping venues in the city with no connections between them.
"Traffic is another problem," she said.
"Many foreign tour groups travel on 50-seater buses which take the entire day just to travel to opposite ends of the city, leaving no time for the holidaymakers to spend their money."
Thuy called for the city's support to open one massive shopping venue where tourists can find all made-in-Vietnam products and enjoy local dishes.
"If we do this then it will be within our reach to have each international tourist spend between US$500 and US$1,000 during their visit to the city," she asserted.
Vo Anh Tai, deputy general director of Saigontourist, said Ho Chi Minh City lacks tourism products that are entertaining to tourists at night.
He suggested finding ways to turn Ho Chi Minh City into "a city that never sleeps" in order to woo more visitors.
In the meantime, Scott Hodgetts, general manager at Sheraton Saigon Hotel, speaking on behalf of foreign businesspeople in the city, questioned the ability of municipal leaders to make paperwork less complicated.
In 2016 alone, Hodgetts said, Sheraton Saigon Hotel was inspected on 13 occasions, sometimes with inspections overlapping one another.
Hodgetts said if red tape is reduced, it will be much easier for foreign businesses to persuade international customers to choose Vietnam as a destination.

Tostitos unveils alcohol-sensitive chip bag
With the Super Bowl just around the corner, snack makers Tostitos wants to do their part in making sure everyone parties responsibly and gets home a-ok. This year that means debuting a bag of chips that can literally tell you whether or not you're too drunk to drive.
Officially it's called the "party safe" bag. It does have an alcohol sensor on it but it's a stretch to call this a breathalyzer. The bag has one hard setting for alcohol detection, it won't tell you your blood-alcohol level but it does react to the presence of alcohol, changing the bags colour to red and displaying a "Don't Drink And Drive" message.
What's really cool about the "Party Safe" bag is that it comes with a $10 Uber code should you set off the alcohol detector, on top of smart technology that lets you redeem it by just tapping your smart phone on the bag (if you have the necessary apps that is.) A Frito-Lay spokeswoman says the goal is to remove 25,000 potentially impaired drivers from the roads the night of the Super Bowl.
Although Tostitos is probably onto something here, it bears repeating that this is not a breathalyzer. If, during Super Bowl Sunday you think to yourself, "I'm not positive if I'm fit to drive, pass me that bag of chips so I can check," it's likely you just answered your question.

Previously on ER: Patrick Fugit from Almost Famous showed up with Tom Green Cancer, but he didn't get the added therapy of screwing Drew Barrymore. Chen confessed to Pratt that she had a baby once. He stroked her hair, or something. And, in case you're really out of it and you didn't realize that ER stands for Everyone Related to Abby, Abby's brother Eric developed bipolar depression and there was friction. But he appeared recently to be on his meds, and had bought a plane, and everyone was as happy as miserable people can be, until his plane disappeared. And also, fresh from the mean streets of The Amazing Race, the beautiful and talented Miss Alli dropped by long enough to kick this show's ass with a kick-ass recap. And there was much rejoicing. Thanks, Miss Alli!
Abby's kitchen is dark. On the table, in the foreground, is an open and half-empty bottle of tequila. Or, as the poor beleaguered tequila itself might say, half-escaped. Carter unlocks the front door and enters, quietly calling Abby's name. The captioning claims we can hear an alarm clock buzzing, but we can't. (Not yet.) As he deposits his stuff in the living room, Carter strolls to the bedroom with a sidelong glance at the kitchen. He spies the tequila and rolls his eyes, because that's a lot of Cuervo to down when there's no salt or lime in sight. Sighing heavily, he enters the bedroom and sees Abby lying sprawled on her stomach near the edge of the bed, messy and looking very much like she passed out in the center of one of the three mattresses she was seeing at the time. Her beeping alarm clock is now audible. Carter slowly takes off his jacket, gazing pityingly at her. He seems at once disappointed in her, unsurprised by this, and sorry for her. Then, Carter lies down on the bed and reaches over to turn off the alarm, not appearing to wonder if the blaring buzzer might have signaled that Abby needs to wake up for one reason or another. No, instead he spoons her, strokes her shoulder, and looks lost, then closes his eyes.
Weaver leans on the buzzer of an apartment building near the El track. Just as she's about to give up on the occupant, Luka throws open the door and apologizes. He looks sultry, as usual. Stiff greetings ensue, because they didn't get a chance to sort out their differences with a few notes during study hall. Finally, Luka invites her inside, but Weaver declines. "I'm on my way to work," she says. "Remember? That place where you used to practice medicine?" Luka blinks. "I told you I needed time off," he replies emptily. "Yeah, well, you've had it," Weaver snaps. "Rumor is you've quit, but I see nothing official, so I scheduled you to work the 12-to-12 shift today." Luka shrugs that he still has things to do. Things. The writers aren't sure what he must do, or indeed what he's been doing this entire time, but they're pretty sure it involves Things. Do whores count as Things? What about recappers? Weaver snots that Luka has until noon to decide whether he still wants to be a doctor, "or don't bother coming back." She's all snippy, but I swear, this is her maladjusted way of trying to reach out to him. Problem is, she's reaching out with the hand that's wrapped around her crutch, which makes for some very painful bruising on the part of her target.

Place pecans, cilantro, garlic, lime or lemon juice, 1/3 cup olive oil and chili flakes in a food processor. Pulse until finely chopped and well combined. Add a little extra oil if you find the pesto too thick.
Transfer pesto to a serving bowl.
Brush each halibut steak with the 2 Tbsp. olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Oil the bars of the grill. Grill the halibut 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until just cooked through. Set fish on serving plates. Top each steak with a generous dollop of pesto and serve.
Note: A medium-sized bunch of cilantro should yield the sprigs required for the recipe. Keep any leftover pesto refrigerated in a tight-sealing jar. It will keep about a week.
Recipe Options: Instead of pecans, try unsalted, roasted cashews in the pesto. Instead of halibut steaks, try the pesto on another type of grilled fish, such as salmon steak, or serve it with grilled chicken breast. Instead of using the pesto as a topping, use it to spread on burger buns you fill with grilled fish or chicken and desired accouterments.

Last Updated on Tuesday, 30 November 1999 05:00 Written by Administrator Tuesday, 28 May 2013 09:44KARACHI: Institute of Cost and Management Association of Pakistan (ICMAP) on Monday sent proposals to the newly elected government for resolving core economic issues in its first hundred days.
The ICMAP prepared the proposals with the desire that the expected prime minister Mian Nawaz Sharif incorporate the suggestions in his maiden speech, outlining the 100-day priority plan of his government.
The institute proposed a short-term measure for energy crisis that the government should form a special task force for launching an immediate crackdown on power theft across the country to reduce losses in electricity transmission and distribution.
It advised that the business community might be allowed to set up power projects (solar and wind) without prior permission of the National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (Nepra) in those locations, which are not connected to the national grid.
"A committee may be formed to finalise a national plan to generate electricity through waste materials of crops like sugarcane baggasse, cotton waste, rice husk and organic materials," it suggested as short-term measures.
The ICMAP said that the country was facing the business losses of billions of rupees due to 'strikes' called by political and religious parties. "As such, the government should impose ban on such strikes and penalise parties in violation of the ban," it added.
For bringing down the inflation, the institute proposed, the government waives immediately all kinds of taxes and levies on essential commodities like flour, sugar, rice, ghee, oil and dairy products.
"Cost and management accountants may be given a role to carry out 'cost-profit analyses' of goods available in market to discourage profiteering by producers, middlemen or retailers," stated the proposal.
To restore the businessmen confidence, it added, a joint government-business forum should be formed, comprising of ministers of finance, commerce, industry, and investment and representatives of trade and industry.
This forum should meet on quarterly basis to resolve problems faced by trade and industry as well as to seek their proposals in framing economic policies.
A permanent secretariat of this forum may also be set up, it further said.
For tackling corruption and inefficiencies of public sector enterprises (PSEs), the ICMAP advised that the private sector representatives must be appointed as heads of PSEs, such as PIA, Pakistan Railways, Pakistan Steel Mills, Pepco, NHA, Passco, TCP, Utility Stores Corporation of Pakistan etc.
"Independent boards of directors may be formed and empowered to govern these PSEs with clear mandates, targets and accountability," suggested the proposal.
The institute also recommended long-term measures for next two to three years for sustainable economic growth

The third and final trimester starts by 28 weeks pregnancy. If you're like most women, you'll gain about 11 pounds this trimester.
At 28 weeks pregnant, you'll likely visit your doctor or midwife every two weeks. Then, at 36 weeks, you'll switch to weekly visits. Depending on your risk factors, your practitioner may recommend repeating blood tests for HIV and syphilis now, as well as doing cultures for chlamydia and gonorrhea, to be certain of your status before delivery. Also, if your glucose screening test result was high and you haven't yet had follow-up testing, you'll soon be given the 3-hour glucose tolerance test. And if the blood work done at your first prenatal visit showed that you're Rh negative, you'll get an injection of Rh immunoglobulin to prevent your body from developing antibodies that could attack your baby's blood. (If your baby is Rh positive, you'll receive another shot of Rh immunoglobulin after you give birth.)
Around this time, some women feel an unpleasant "creepy-crawly" sensation in their lower legs and an irresistible urge to move them while trying to relax or sleep. If this sensation is at least temporarily relieved when you move, you may have what's known as restless legs syndrome (RLS). No one knows for sure what causes RLS, but it's relatively common among expectant mothers. Try stretching or massaging your legs, and cut down on caffeine, which can make the symptoms worse. Ask your caregiver if you should try iron supplements, which can sometimes relieve RLS.
By 28 weeks pregnancy, your baby is 14.8 inches or more! She weighs in at about 2.2 pounds. Up until now if you were to look at your baby's brain it would appear smooth. By about 28 weeks pregnant, the brain starts to mature and form grooves that we commonly associate with a human brain. Your baby may also be growing longer hair on her head now, though many babies will come out bald at birth. Others will be born with lovely locks of hair that will fall out and even change color some time after delivery.
