Parents, it is our responsibility to step up our game. Ugh, I know. We are all doing the best we can in so many areas of our lives. You might say, "Please don't push me to do better." But I am going to do just that because wherever you are in your consumption of plastic (which is actually both figurative and literal), you can do better. We must all do better.
Earth Day is the best when it's about the kids. Kid-centered activities of recycling crafts, seed plantings, and science experiments are so much fun! But it's about the kids in another way, too. We have to think about what type of Earth will we bestow upon our children. Do we really want to pass on an Earth that is covered in plastic? Plastic pollution is everywhere: air, soil, rivers, lakes, oceans, beaches, even in our drinking water!
China and India are no longer taking the plastic we drop into our recycling bins. It's piling up in some communities or being sent to landfills or incinerators in others. The answer: stop using so much plastic!
We use plastic for many reasons; it's inexpensive, lightweight, but most of all it's convenient. However, the convenience and the savings aren't convenient or inexpensive if we stick our children with the bill and a big mess to try to clean up. (Our kids can hardly clean their rooms!)
Enough, I say. Let's think about how, when, and where we can avoid plastic as if our children's future depends on it.
- Reusable bags: "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle" has a new member: "Refuse." If you haven't gotten into the habit of bringing your own reusable bags everywhere, now is a great time to start. There are endless options for bags. You can even find bags that fold up into tiny pouches that fit into a purse. Yes, bringing your bags takes planning and you have to make it part of your routine, but it's worth it. Plastic bags are the low-hanging fruit of what we can live without.
Don't just stop with bags at the grocery store. Take your reusable bags to big box stores, the hardware store, even take out for restaurants. Tell them why you are bringing your own bags and refusing the plastic. (It's for the children!) If you're kids are like mine, they may say, "Mom, don't embarrass me!" Do it anyway.
- Produce bags: OK, you're a pro at bringing your reusable bags to the grocery store. But the first thing we do in the produce aisle is pull on that big roll of plastic bags and tear one off. Instead, put your produce in your own muslin cloth or recycled bag. Also, seek out produce that isn't pre-wrapped in plastic. You've already created the habit of bringing grocery bags. Just add produce bags to the routine.
- Water bottles: It's 2019. Disposable plastic water bottles are so last decade. Fill up your own stainless steel or glass water bottle. Not only is the plastic hugely wasteful, but water bottling companies are draining the freshwater in small towns in Michigan, Maine, and other beautiful states. If you are providing the drinks for the soccer game or birthday party, bring a large dispenser and paper or compostable cups. You can encourage others to bring their own drinking vessel, too. Collapsible stainless steel cups are fun!
- Coffee cups: Some of us drink as much coffee as water! (Hey, we've all got to get through the day). Many take-out coffee cups are lined with plastic and can't be recycled. Find yourself a ceramic coffee cup or insulated thermos. Make your coffee at home or hand your empty mug to your favorite barista. You'll skip the waste of the stirrers and lids too!
- Pay attention to packaging: Wherever possible (grocery store, big box store, etc.) opt for items wrapped in paperboard or cardboard rather than plastic. Notice other places you can skip the plastic, like choosing cotton swabs with paper sticks rather than ones with plastic.
- Lunches: The European Union just passed a law to phase out the use of many single-use plastics, including cutlery, plates, straws, and Styrofoam food and drink containers to help reduce marine litter, prevent 3.4 million tons of CO2 emissions, and save about $25 billion in environmental clean-up costs.
- Kid-friendly options abound for reusable and non-plastic lunch packaging. Try beeswax wraps (they are fabric dipped in a beeswax blend) instead of plastic wrap. Consider stainless steel bento boxes with separate compartments for each lunch item. Reusable bamboo or stainless steel cutlery comes in compact cases or cloth pouches. Find reusable lunch packaging that fits your style as well. We can't let the kids have all the fun. It can be a great conversation starter.
If all of this is new to you, it's not too late to take action. Start with one or more of the action items. When you've mastered those, add another. Some of these actions may require us to expand our comfort zones. But hasn't much of parenthood? And what better gift could we give our children than a healthy, thriving Earth? Parents, we can do this. Happy Earth Day!

text: Vast selection of coins and medals on display to public for first time Wednesday, 24 January 2018, 14:49 Last update: about 4 years ago The National Numismatic Collection, consisting of more than 16,000 coins and medals, is the largest and most diverse found on the island. Heritage Malta's visitors can view a vast selection of these coins at the National Numismatic Exhibition at the National Museum of Archaeology. "This valuable collection shows us and reminds us of our country's eventful and rich past, especially due to its strategic position", said Minister for Justice, Culture and Local Government Owen Bonnici. "It is therefore a good thing that such a collection is accessible to everyone." ADVERTISEMENT This collection is continuously being increased with acquisitions and donations. The exhibition is divided periodically and includes the Carthaginians, the Romans, the Medieval millennium, the Order of St John, the French, and the British. Another section includes medals, dies, proofs and accessories, while the minting process is also explained through audiovisual means. Heritage Malta's Chairperson Dr Joe Buttigieg said that, "We should also think of those who have contributed to this collection. I have to mention the considerable donation of Prof Salvatore Lugi Pisani in 1899 and Dr Tancred Gouder as well, an ex-archaeology curator and director of the Museum Department who had this collection at heart and made sure to exhibit and increase it through the years." There was a need for this exhibition to be permanently on show, and it is now accessible to the general public regularly for the first time, as before this exhibition was only accessible via appointment. Coins started being struck around 650 BC. They provide physical evidence not only of monetary values, but also of other information such as the political import of different periods. Until 1972, Malta mainly used coinage of the various foreign powers occupying the islands. In that year, Malta issued its own currency for the first time. Heritage Malta also displays a number of coins in other museums such as the Domus Romana, the Archaeology Museum in Gozo, and Fort St Elmo. A selection from this collection will eventually be on show in the Grand Master's Palace as part of the major project of rehabilitation co-financed by the European Union. Parliamentary Secretary for Consumer Protection and Valletta 2018 was also present for the launch of this exhibition. The opening hours of the National Museum of Archaeology are from 9.00hrs to17.00hrs until February, and from 9.00hrs to 18.00hrs from March until December.

Mouse on Mars – Parastrophics
aaamusic | On 11, Mar 2012
Mouse On Mars' new album 'Parastrophics' sounds like a compilation of almost every popular leftfield dance producer. Someone unfamiliar with the German duo (Jan St Werner and Andi Toma) would be forgiven for dismissing 'Parastrophics' as an album of stolen sounds and imitated ideas. They'd be forgiven because Mouse On Mars have been making sounds of this sort since 1993 (!), breaking ground in electronic music – across no less than nine previous albums – long before our contemporary music-makers were heralded as groundbreaking.
'Parastrophics' is the duo's first full-length record in six years, but more noteworthy is that fact that it is the first album to be released through Monkeytown – fellow German duo Modeselektor's label. The reason that this is a notable fact because of the influence that Mouse On Mars must have had on Modeselektor, which is evident in the sheer number of similarities between 'Parastrophics' and Modeselektor's last album 'Monkeytown': both albums are eccentric and eclectic, incorporating both a sense of fun, and an element of pop.
Mouse On Mars essentially make IDM, which is strong on techno and electro. But their take on IDM isn't to overtly challenge the listener, but to instil an element of progression into accessible structures – all the while maintaining a sense of melody. Unlike previous albums (and much like the last Modeselektor album), Mouse On Mars have tried their hand at introducing hiphop beats into their electronica, and the general tone is more upbeat and straightforward than much of their ambient and experimental past.
Songs like 'Chordblocker, Cinnamon Toasted' and 'They Know Your Name' are progressive but tuneful electro numbers, with the former having hiphop vocals, and the latter having robotic, pop singing. Tracks like opener 'The Beach Stop' and 'Gearknot Cherry' are erratic yet soft, glitch-heavy numbers – not a million miles away from the post-dubstep of Brainfeeder acts like Flying Lotus. 'Syncropticians', 'Cricket', and interlude 'Bruised To Imwimper' are more understated, ambient IDM numbers in the vein of Four Tet. The enjoyable 'Polaroyced' is club banger that contains the kind of rave synths and electro-funk that Rustie used to propel his 'Glass Swords' LP, while the techno of 'Seaqz' sounds like Simian Mobile Disco on speed. Highlight 'Baku Hipster' sounds like Modeselektor collaborating with M.I.A. – a strong hiphop vibe, spitting female vocals, and moody alternative dance.
With 'Parastrophics' Mouse On Mars have crafted an album with respectable results – massive beats, so-so vocals, and a suitable level of experimentalism. The only problem with the record (and a problem Modeselektor encountered on 'Monkeytown') is that integrating so many different subgenres of dance music into one record makes for a rather inconsistent and chaotic overall listen. Assessed individually, all the tracks border brilliance, but considered as a whole, 'Parastrophics' makes for a bit of a mess. Also, Mouse On Mars may well be the uncredited IDM inspiration for the popular, mainstream purveyors of progressive electronica (FlyLo, Four Tet, Modeselektor, etc), but maybe, just maybe, this album is the point where Mouse On Mars stopped simply being the quiet source of inventiveness, and starting being influenced by their younger peers. Nonetheless, this is a hugely enjoyable record, and should (hopefully) bring Mouse On Mars a hell of a lot more recognition – the recognition they deserve.

The ConsensusDocs Coalition, of which SMACNA is a member, has published an updated ConsensusDocs 301 BIM Addendum, which was an industry-first document originally published in June 2008. The new Addendum updates terminology and provisions to reflect current best practices in the rapidly changing world of BIM.
The new changes included updating liability, insurance and intellectual property terms; adding provisions for commissioning/turnover and facilities maintenance and operations, as well as sustainability analyses. There was a great deal of effort on incorporating a level of development (LOD) and creating options regarding reliance upon model data.

A few weeks back I was well enough to make it over to the north of Holland to stay with a good friend for a long weekend. This was a Christmas gift from my husband to enjoy and explore Holland sans the sprog which was incredibly liberating! Just imagine-I could actually shop in peace, explore wherever I wanted, eat when I wanted and sleep in if I decided to. Oh, the freedom!
On the Sunday morning I received a tweet from the lovely Eline Pellinkhof telling me about a fantastic handmade market to visit on the outskirts of Amsterdam in Westerpark, so with a day free we headed out to see for ourselves.
Held on every first Sunday of every month, the Sunday Market is a fashion, art and design market which has a similar feel to Greenwich & Spitalfields for the crafts and Borough market for the food and drink (you could indulge in a chocolate crepe and a chilled glass of champagne whilst you browsed).
The market had a really laid back feel to it and boasted a number of very talented designer-makers. I was especially taken with the work of furniture designer and joiner Miriam Spanier of 'Miriam inhout' -literally translated as 'Miriam in Wood'. Inspired by the 1970s turned-leg pine coffee tables, she's breathed new life into what would've been considered old and dowdy designs and created a new contemporary must-have. The RE-LEGS collection.
Small RE-LEGS in neon pink
What I absolutely love about Miriam's designs is that she leaves the natural finish of the wood on the outside and introduces a cheeky splash of colour to the inside of the legs leaving the 3-dimensional detailing on display. She's made pine cool again.
Large RE-LEGS in blue
The tables come in a variety of colours including canal green (they wouldn't be Dutch without this traditional colour!) soft yellow, off-white and natural wood.
Small RE-LEGS in signal red
I think I'd like to have a series of these wall-mounted as book shelves. Don't you think they'd look great?.

Hi Tiff, glad you are feeling better and always nice to have break. Love that green on that table and such an interesting design too. Hope you can make it to one of our London meet ups soon. x

Addiction Center of Broome County, Inc. Review
The Addiction Center of Broome County, Inc. in Binghamton, New York provides outpatient, Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) and Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP) along with dual-diagnosis treatment. ACBC is a non-profit facility offering adult men and women individualized, evidence-based treatment through group and individual therapy in a supportive environment.
Treatment and Staff
Those seeking treatment for substance abuse through ACBC must first undergo an evaluation to determine which program best suits their needs. Treatment paths are individualized and goal-oriented and clients are placed in a traditional outpatient program, an IOP (referred to as IOS) or PHP accordingly.
Individual counseling sessions may be scheduled as needed and the Basic Addictions Group is ideal for individuals who are new to treatment and who don't need an intensive recovery program. Clients attend Psychoeducational group therapy twice a week for two hours.
The IOS is a six week program requiring no less than nine hours of treatment per week in three hour sessions. Clients participate in group and individual therapy, family counseling and relapse prevention. Group sessions discuss coping skills and drug refusal skills training. Psychiatric support is available for co-occurring disorders with medication management as needed.
ACBC's PHP is the most intensive track requiring five hours of treatment five days a week. Generally speaking, clients with dual-diagnosis issues are treated through the PHP treatment track. Clients receive healthcare, life skills training, illness education, care for trauma and management skills for continued wellness. PHP clients also receive breakfast daily.
All treatment at ACBC is evidence-based and may include CBT, DBT, Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET), art and music therapy and EMDR for those who have experienced trauma. The facility also offers gender-specific trauma focused groups, a parenting program and anger management. ACBC's staff of addiction counselors are Master's-level LADCs, LCSWs, psychiatrists, psychologists and nurses.
The facility has a wellness group clients can attend that offers yoga and other forms of physical exercise as therapeutic tools. Spanish speaking groups are available as well. A family program in a private therapy setting can be integrated into any client's program and ACBC has an aftercare program that meets twice a week that focuses on relapse prevention.
In Summary
The Addiction Center of Broome County's individualized approach provides clients the opportunity for a life of sobriety while targeting the underlying issues that led to their addiction.

Achieve and Maintain a Healthy Weight
Natural Weight Loss Program in Austin
Millions of men and women are overweight or obese and have difficulty losing weight. Many have tried diet and exercise, appetite suppressants, diet pills, and even extreme measures like cosmetic or gastric surgery to no avail. Many have been disappointed to find that any weight loss they do achieve never seems to last. Even worse, symptoms such as mental fog, low energy, and stomach issues persist or even worsen with weight loss efforts. Can you relate? To help people like you who want to lose weight AND achieve a state of optimal health, our weight loss doctors work hard to understand the root cause(s) of your challenges and build a personalized, holistic, sustainable weight loss program including ongoing support and coaching.
How Do We Help?
Start Your Sustainable Weight Loss Program
Contact us to book an appointment or ask questions. We're here to help.
Opening Hours
8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
A Truly Healthy Weight Loss Program
Whether your weight struggles are the result of a condition such as hyperthyroidism, overeating / stress eating, or one of six other common root causes, the benefits of losing the weight in the way that we teach are the same.
What to Expect of Our Weight Loss Clinic in Austin
We welcome all who want to lose weight to pay us a visit at our weight loss center. What can you expect if you choose to do so? We always begin with a discussion about the current state of your health, where you'd like to be in the future and any challenges that are holding you back. This discussion informs the types of testing we select to determine the root cause of your struggles.
Once identified, our weight loss doctors will create and help you enact an individualized plan that takes into account your body composition, medical history, personal wellness goals, and lifestyle. Your plan may involve modifying your eating habits to take in more necessary nutrients or a fully customized dietary regimen. In any case, all recommendations are things that you can reasonably do and that will truly make a difference and give you a sense of accomplishment that sustains a new relationship to weight, food, and health.
We will be there to support you every step of the way and to help you overcome any hiccups you encounter along your journey to optimal health.
A Superior Weight Loss Solution
Unlike many weight loss doctors that focus on treating symptoms, which is the equivalent of giving you a bandaid, we identify and treat root causes. And we do it without harmful drugs and dangerous procedures such as lipo, gastric bypass, gastric banding, or sleeve gastrectomy, enabling you to enjoy long-term weight loss and improved quality of life.
Additionally, we provide personalized action plans based on our multidisciplinary approach to health and wellness, rather than the generic and ineffective templates that are so common today. As a result, our patients are able to reach and successfully maintain their goal weights
Common Concerns and Questions
Unlike cookie-cutter, one-size-fits-all diets that come a dime a dozen, our approach is holistic and completely personalized. We take into account various facets of your health, your body type, your goals, and your challenges to create a plan that works for you. We take into account the modern science of habit formation, which sets out key shifts in mindset and methodology to help people make lasting changes with less effort. We make our programs as easy as possible to stick to, which maximizes the gains you see. Additionally, you'll have one-on-one support from our dietitians and doctors along the way as you work to develop healthy habits and rise above any challenges that may come.
While healthy food may cost a wee bit more, we can help make sure that it's not too much for you. Eating healthy and getting your nutritional needs met doesn't have to break the bank. If you want a budget-conscious plan, just let us know and we'll do everything possible to work within the bounds you set. If you're a true penny pincher, though, consider this: at some point, sooner or later you will have to reach into your pocket and pay for your health. The sooner you do it, the less it'll cost you in dollars and in time. Why not choose to do it on your terms at a time when you can make these changes in a budget-conscious manner rather than when you're facing a health crisis?
As with budget concerns, we can help you wiggle your way around time constraints too. A busy schedule doesn't have to cost you your health and wellness! In fact, there are plenty of ways to speed up healthy cooking and eating. Remember: our goal is to help you adopt healthy lifestyle choices with as little friction as possible...and, with a bit of fun thrown in from time to time! Just let us know about your time concerns and we can help you figure out how to fit it in without stretching yourself thin. (Pun intended).
Ready to Shed Your Excess Weight and Get Healthy?
We're ready to help you find the underlying reason for your weight and health challenges. What's more, we can help you overcome those obstacles and achieve optimal health through an easy-to-follow, individualized action plan and coaching.

I want to know the relationship between the baud rate and crystal frequency. There are certain documents stating that if you are using a 16MHz crystal your Baud rate must be 115200 and if frequency is 8MHz then baud rate can be 9600. It also states that the AVR Studio AVRISP accepts only 115200 baud. Is this right ? If true, can I burn the boot loader in arduino IDE at a buad rate of 9600 ?
Relation between BAUD_RATE and crystal frequency
Its all in the datasheet! You want to achieve less than 3% baud rate error using an integer divisor. With Some baudrates with some crystals, this can't be achieved. The datasheet has a table of common crystal freq vs baudrate and the error. It also gives the formula for determining the divisor.
edit typo
Thank you Kartman..
the AVR Studio AVRISP accepts only 115200 baud. Is this right ?
Any solution on this question ?
The AVRISP MkII uses usb. No serial involved. So exactly what device are you referring to?
Its all in the datasheet!
Every AVr datasheet has a section at the end of the UART chapter called "Examples of baud rate setting". This shows tables for common crystal frequencies and for each it lists all the common baud rates from 300 up to 115,200 (and beyond in fact). It shows you the UBRR value you would need to use to get that baud rate using that crystal frequency and very importantly there is a column for "Error %". The baud rate/frequncy combination will be usable if the number in the error column is between -2.0 and +2.0. If it is smaller or larger then it is unlikely to work. For example you will see that for a crystal of 1.0MHz and a baud rate of 9600 the Error% is -7.0%. That means that combination is not usable. You should pick a different baud rate or a different crystal frequency to find some other combination with a better Error%.
Sometimes there is a value that is too big in Error% but in the "U2X" column alongside it is in the -2.0%..+2.0% range. In that case it is telling you that you can do it but you need to enable U2X mode (which is slightly more error prone than normal mode as it only over-samples by 8 times rather than the usual 16 times).
If you use a frequency that is not a "common" crystal frequency you won't find an entry in the table. In this case you need to use the formulae given in the datasheet to calculate it yourself.
Thank you Kartman and clawson,
I referred to the data sheet in the segment you cited. I understood the reason.
So exactly what device are you referring to?
Yes I am referring to USB only.
So what does the uart baud rate got to do with USB? SPI is used to communicate with the AVR and no boot loader is used. So the baud rate of 115200 is irrelevant.

Martin passionately believes that Brexit is wrong for this country. He still believes our future safety, prosperity, environment and culture will all benefit from continued membership of the European Union. Even Leave voters must now despair of the Conservative government's inept and disunited approach to the EU negotiations and subsequent parliamentary car crash which still risks the UK dropping out of the EU in October without a deal, like a crate of eggs off the back of a moving lorry.
Theresa May's rejected deal (supported by Cheltenham's loyalist Conservative MP but repeatedly defeated all the same) would take the UK out of the EU but tie us to rules for years over which we would no longer have any say – and long before we know the real detail of any final deal that might one day be done.
Martin supports the British people having the final say on the Brexit plan, whether that is Theresa May's deal or no deal, with the option to vote to remain in the EU after all.
As the Lib Dem party spokesperson on Europe in the 2010-15 parliament, Martin repeatedly confronted anti-European Conservative and Labour MPs pressing then Prime Minister David Cameron to bring in the Referendum Bill (which Cameron did, believing it would be lost and that he could guarantee Conservative unity in the process. Wrong on both counts.)
During the referendum campaign itself, Martin put a strong case for Britain remaining in the European Union. He believes EU membership is:
- The best guarantee of British jobs and future prosperity, through our full membership of the world's largest single market
- Enormously important for tackling cross-border organised crime, people trafficking and terrorism, and for bringing British and other EU criminal suspects to justice through the European Arrest Warrant and EU agencies such as Europol
- The best way for Britain to find its voice in highly competitive global negotaitions on everything from climate change to world trade
- The best way of safeguarding the environment which transcends national boundaries and requires co-ordinated action for its protection
- The guarantor of many human rights, consumer protections and employment rights
- An enormously important cultural, educational and scientific benefit to the UK, and in particular for future generations.
Martin told local businesses during the campaign: "Cheltenham businesses, from high-end engineering firms to the social care sector, benefit from millions in investment from within the EU and employ hundreds of people from other European Union countries and would in many cases struggle to fill those posts if visa or residence qualifications ever got in the way. Our businesses benefit from their skills and productivity, the UK benefits from the taxes they pay – and of course we get the right to live, work, study, sell our goods and services and even retire anywhere in Europe on the same terms as local citizens. Why would we throw all that into doubt with a costly and uncertain divorce from Europe? And the moment we voted for Brexit businesses all over Europe would start to think about how they could get the rules of the single market tweaked in their favour after we've gone and have no say. A town like Cheltenham with strong international links would lose out in that situation."
Sadly, the vote for Brexit has already damaged the UK. It was followed by an immediate drop in the value of the pound which has been maintained as business confidence and investment has faltered, the NHS, public sector and many companies now face a crisis in recruitment and retention of valued European staff and young people feel rightly cheated of their future work and study opportunities. There is good evidence we have sacrificed as much as 3% GDP growth since the vote.
The Conservative government's inept handling of the Brexit negotiations and subsequent parliamentary votes has added to the uncertainty, amongst businesses large and small and amongst Leave and Remain voters alike. The government used European residents of the UK as bargaining chips when they could have guaranteed their unqualified right to stay at once and got the negotiations off to a positive start, moving on to the crucial need for a trade deal as fast as possible. Instead we had often aggressive and often wildly unrealistic statements accompanying talks which barely seemed to have got off the starting blocks as to the clock ticked down towards a 'hard' Brexit of tariffs and trade barriers, lost opportunities and an uncertain future for longstanding UK residents. And despite losing her majority in a General Election called specifically to back her approach to Brexit, Theresa May refused to involve MPs of other parties in her planning until days before we were due to leave.
Even now, May's deal – still the only one actually agreed by the EU – hasn't resolved the Irish border question and would leave us subject to many EU rules and regulations despite having no say in them because we would have legally left the Union. It seems doomed to constant defeat in Parliament anyway and the Brexiteers cannot agree amongst themselves which of the many arcane alternative variants on offer they want to try to negotiate with the EU or whether to leave without any deal. This will not change witha new Prime Minister. So the UK still faces apparently endless uncertainty and the risk of falling out of the back of the European Union with a very nasty bump indeed.
The only way to break the logjam, is for the Brexiteers to agree what kind of Brexit they actually want and the EU will agree – at the moment that means Theresa May's deal – and put that back to the people in a second People's Vote. Remain voters who are persuaded by the actual deal on offer can switch to Leave, while Leave voters who think the actual deal on offer is worse than staying in can vote to do just that.

It's the new year and no doubt the summer season has taken its toll on your outdoor space. UV exposure, high temperatures and increased footfall can leave your outdoor timber looking a little worse for wear. However, the days of BBQs and relaxing on your deck aren't over just yet so it's important to still give it a little TLC this month.
Here are our top three tips for bringing your outdoor space back to life.
Renew decking with Cabot's Deck and Exterior Stain
Cabot's Deck and Exterior stains are saviours for timber – particularly previously stained lighter varieties – that has faded over the summer months. Their high pigmentation helps to return your deck to its original, deep colour after just a simple restain. They're also a great way to completely change up the look and feel of your outdoor space, for example, by applying a darker stain to pine, which creates the illusion of a more expensive looking timber.
And because both our water and oil-based varieties offer a high level of UV protection, you'll create a look that will last.
Refresh exteriors with Timbercolour Deck & Exterior Paint
It might seem like a major undertaking, but we'd really recommend tackling tired exteriors before the colder weather sets in. Using Cabot's quick-drying Timbercolour Deck & Exterior Paint can help to significantly speed up the process; with no need for a primer, the chosen colour can be applied directly to timber, masonry, brick work and concrete – becoming touch dry after just 30 minutes and requiring just a two-hour period in between coatings.
For weathered timber, be sure to fill cracks or holes and give surfaces a light sand to ensure the paint takes properly. Likewise, if you're working with painted surfaces, scrape off any loose or flaking paint, before sanding.
Other surfaces require a little more attention. Ensure they are sound by filling any visible holes with grouting cement and then use water and a stiff brush to remove all loose material to improve the surfaces. To remove white salts, simply wipe down with a 5% solution of white vinegar, then hose with water and allow to dry. It's also worth using a bleach solution ahead of painting to prevent any existing mould or moss becoming embedded in the material.
Protect outdoor furniture with Garden Furniture Oil
Garden furniture is a huge contributing factor in terms of creating a cohesive look for your outdoor space, so make sure you don't neglect it.
If you haven't already, now's the time to give your outdoor timber furniture the once over with our Garden Furniture Oil. Not only does it penetrate the timber to create a protective barrier against the build-up of mould and dirt, but it also acts as a durable acrylic layer that highlights your furniture's natural colour for a traditional finish.
By following these simple tips, your outdoor space will look as good as it did on the very first day; recoloured, renewed, and reinforced to withstand whatever weather this season might bring.

(15 July 2000) Fula are a five-piece English progressive band that meld
a variety of influences into their sound. Although currently fronted by
a new young vocalist named Josie
their current album Dark Matter
(Fulamusic (UK) FCD1, 1999) features lead vocals by Zoe Stafford who
recently left the band to pursue a singing career elsewhere. We
saw Fula live at the Classic Rock Society in Rotherham, England support
Karnataka on 01 July 2000 (review).
For the most part they faithfully reproduce their recorded sound in the live setting
with the exception of the lead vocal part. The attractive young singer
is doing a good job but currently lacks the energy, diversity and vocal
maturity of their former member.
Fula have gone through several lineup changes over the band's career
which spans at least the last fifteen years. Dark Matter
is their one album; with 14 tracks spanning just over 60 minutes, it is
a commendable song-based progressive rock album. In addition to their
current singer
Josie, the band is comprised of leader Rob Gould (keyboards), Greg Boulton
(drums), Jason Gilman (guitars) and Nigel Moss (bass). Significantly harsher
than Karnataka in their sound, the Classic Rock Society audience enjoyed
their opening performance. While we found the live show a bit tedious, we
enjoyed their album substantially more. Dark Matter is entirely
self-produced and pressed on CD-R. Attractive artwork that accompanies it
includes all lyrics and has been produced by computer as well.
The album's title track is a dynamic progressive rocker with excellent
keyboard and guitar excursions, rhythmic percussion and a delightful soaring
lead vocal part. While some at Rotherham were intrigued by the band's pulsing
"Vanity" (Insanity), it is the one track the band has done that does nothing
for us, primarily due to the lack of vocal diversity within it. The album's
tracks generally feature stunning vocal parts and the range of styles
available adds to its appeal.
Symphonic instrumental arrangements and layers of harmony vocals compliment
the lead in the gentle rocking and stunning tracks "Girl In The Window" and
"Banner Of Shadows," certainly two of our favourite tracks by the band.
Clearly the instrumentals are more dominant in the latter with lovely
guitar excursions, but they are never overly agressive; melodies and
supporting harmonies are balanced with rhythm and crisp production
(especially drums and percussion) and add to the accessibility of the two
Dark Matter's softer and more atmospheric songs are dominated by
sensitively sung—at times soaring—vocals. These include "Nothing,"
"Everything" and the lovely atmospheric piece "River One - Part One."
Certain to appeal to those that like the band's softer side, "Behind Cold
Eyes" is a tender ballad with vocal layers soaring above a light keyboard-
and guitar-based instrumental arrangements that build as the track comes
to its conclusion.
"A New Advance" combines the band's softer style with a more agressive
guitar-ridden instrumental and a more complex, almost experimental,
vocal melody. "Where Did We Go Wrong?" is dominated by vast instrumental
prowess, primarily with reaching guitar riffs, driving bass and powerful
percussion; vocals are far more instrumental in their construction.
The rock anthems "Cynthia" and "Insanity" are dominated by the band's
powerful rhythm section and instrumentals and will appeal to those that
like music with a harder edge. The latter will certainly appeal to
Genesis enthusiasts.
Fula's Dark Matter is available from the band directly via their
website and is an album worth further exploration. The band are charting
a bright future in 2000 with support slots for major acts like Camel in
their plans. If the tremendous preview of a new 30-minute epic that was
performed in Rotherham is any indication, their new album due out later this
year promises
to be very exciting. With the range of styles available, solid production and
Zoe's excellent vocal work, we found Fula's album particularly enjoyable
and worthy of further exploration. It is certainly a very nice listen!
