From 2 degrees to 1,5 degree
From 2 degrees to 1.5 degrees - a sensible measure or just a drop in the bucket?
The risk of flooding and droughts will increase, affecting countless animals and plants as well as people. Even now, thousands of people in Europe are not only seeking political asylum, but are coming here as climate refugees. Their numbers will rise dramatically. Anyone who fails to get to safety could be fatally threatened by the effects of climate change.
Biodiversity is also expected to be adversely affected. The state of coral reefs (Great Barrier Reef) is well known. It is doubtful that they can still be saved in the long run. What is certain, however, is that if the temperature rises by 2 degrees, a maximum of only one percent of the coral reefs in existence today would survive at all. If the increase is limited to 1.5 degrees, at least 10-30% would have a chance of survival. The images of polar bears drifting aimlessly in the polar sea on a futile search for solid ice floes have been going around the world for quite some time. The animals swim until they become weak and drown. The negative impacts of climate change cannot be completely stopped even by limiting the increase to 1.5 degrees, but they could be slowed down significantly. Under these conditions, any rescue attempt is actually not much more than a drop in the bucket. But given the circumstances, this is probably the only chance we have left.
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, 1.5-degree target
All emissions would have to be reduced by 45% from 2010 levels by the year 2030. Ten years later, there could no longer be any emissions at all; or any fossil fuels that are still needed would have to be 100% compensated for or removed from the atmosphere after combustion.
To achieve the 1.5-degree target by 2050, a maximum of 770 billion tonnes of greenhouse gases may be released into the atmosphere (according to the IPCC report). The carbon budget would then be zero. With greenhouse gas emissions of more than 40 billion tonnes a year, it quickly becomes clear how big the problem actually is and how little time there is left to take action. It is also impossible to say exactly to what extent the gases already present in the atmosphere could negatively impact this forecast. There is thus a very real fear that neither the 1.5-degree target nor the 2-degree target can be reached at all. It is much more likely that the rise in temperature will be between 2.6 and 4 degrees during this period.
List of measures to achieve a 1.5-degree target by the end of the century:
Completely eliminating emissions harmful to the climate would undoubtedly mean a fundamental change in the way most people on this planet live. This is precisely why industry, policy-makers and the private sector are struggling with implementation. It affects eating habits, housing, transport, everyday life, consumer behaviour and production processes in equal measure. Technical solutions alone will not suffice.
An immediate, complete phase-out of the use of lignite, hard coal and petroleum is needed. The motto in this case is as quickly as possible, but by 2050 at the latest. The fact that thousands of jobs will be lost may also no longer play a role in the phase-out.
The global energy system must be converted to renewable energy produced from water, sun, wind and biomass as quickly as possible. At least 70% of global energy would have to come from these power sources by 2015. This is also true for industry, which needs to implement energy-saving and efficient processes on the one hand and adapt its production chains on the other.
Up to 1000 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide which has already accumulated in the atmosphere must be removed. This could be achieved by putting an immediate stop to all clear-cutting of forests and consistently reforesting other areas. The plants growing in these forests may only be planted for the purpose of capturing carbon dioxide from the air. Under no circumstances may they be burned later in power plants, since the carbon dioxide stored in them would once again be released.
Artificially generating clouds (geoengineering) could also contribute to achieving the 1.5-degree target. However, this method has not yet been fully scientifically developed and still entails substantial risks.
Systematically raising public awareness of the consequences of our own thoughtless consumption of energy and resources could also make a significant contribution. If necessary, new requirements and regulations, but also alternatives (e.g. cheap and convenient switch to public transport) would be necessary. The next world climate summit will take place in Katowice, Poland, in December 2018. The conference will focus primarily on the implementation of the set of rules and regulations agreed in the Paris Agreement. Whatever the outcome of the discussion, no matter which direction the path takes, it is clear that all of our lives will change drastically.

Step up!
As part of the TAP and to conclude the Year 7/8 'How your say' politics elective, we invited Corangamite Shire's 2019 Citizen of the Year, Donna Ellis, to challenge our students about ways that they can be involved in their community. We opened up this session to all Year 7/8 students who learnt that, according to the Census, 1 in 5 people volunteer, that females are more likely to volunteer than males and that there are distinct peaks; females in their 40s, both sexes in their late teens and again in senior years from 60-75 years for both sexes. Students debated the rationale behind these statistics and discussed the various types of areas people can volunteer in such as the environment, sport, aged care, schools, fundraising, health, emergency services etc. Students then nominated different examples of these volunteer organizations, discussed why people in rural areas were more likely to volunteer and discovered that it was a result of perhaps a stronger sense of community and belonging. We hope that our students will consider being a more active contributor to their community moving forward. Great Lesson, thanks Donna.
2019 CCC Town tour
To conclude our CCC class for this semester students visited two local businesses to investigate careers in agriculture based in the Timboon township itself. Cherolyn Bullen, from Bullen's Wholesale Nursery, described the history of the business and it's current structure, business model, produce and markets. Cherolyn stressed the importance of good quality soil for the potting mix and the business' use of technology to pot plants and in the greenhouse. The staff worked on keeping the plants healthy and ready for market while keeping up with maintenance and paying attention to detail to ensure that the best quality plants were produced. Veterinarian, Peter Younis from The Vet Group, hosted our students as they learnt about the variety of careers that vets involved in their practice undertook such as large and small animal vets, agricultural consultants, trainers, international consultants and researchers. Pete described the traits that he thought made good vets including empathy, ability to collaborate, a good listener, being curious, good communication skills, being adaptable and giving and stressed his reliance on community participation and volunteerism when choosing applicants for a role at The Vet Group. Students toured the vet practice rooms including the surgery and x-ray facilities and considered the variety of careers involved in the production of the goods for sale in the practice's foyer and front office. Who knew?
Mt Leura and Mt Noorat field trip
To conclude their studies of Natural Disasters and learn how volcanoes have impacted in our region, the Year 5/6 students undertook a field trip to climb Mt Leura and Mt Noorat. The day was facilitated by members of the Mt Leura Committee of Management and the Friends of Mt Leura who hosted students at the Mt Leura Information Centre. Graham Arkinstall explained that Mt Leura was part of large volcanic complex known as Leura Maar which was formed 10,000-40,000 years ago. He described the way the landscape had evolved over time from an inland ocean and that over 35,000 years ago megaflora disappeared from the volcanic plains due to reason unknown. At Mt Noorat students learnt about local author of "I can jump puddles", Alan Marshall, and they explored the crater and surrounds. From the crest of both Mt Leura and Mt Noorat students could observe the fertile soils that have contributed much to the agricultural enterprises in our region and compare different sorts of rocks, plants and land formations in the landscape.
CCC Science reports
A requirement of Dairy Australia's Cows Create Careers (CCC) is for Year 7/8 students to write a science report based on their observations and findings involved in caring for two calves for three weeks on site at school. Peter Fulton generously loaned students two heifers that were cared for by the CCC class and supervised by Fiona. Great report writing guys
Real chemistry in action!
Recently Beach Energy once again hosted our Year 11 Chemistry students as they undertook a site tour of the Otway Gas Plant. Community Relations Manager, Linda French, conducted the site safety induction exercise and students were made aware of the strict protocols in place to ensure that all staff and visitors remained safe on site. Linda described how hydrocarbons are formed, the location of Australia's gas basins, and how gas and oil is found on land and off shore. Michael Binstead detailed how gas is produced at the Otway Gas Plant when hydrocarbons, or raw gas containing water; petroleum products; gasses; and unwanted inert gasses including nitrogen and carbon dioxide flow from production wells through buried pipelines to the gas plant. The carbon dioxide is detached and the gas is dehydrated to remove water and mercury. Natural gas is then removed and undergoes fractionation to produce ethane, propane and butane. Students learnt from the Production Site Manager about the range of careers at the site including engineers, technicians, chemists, accountants, and contractors before Paul Said accompanied students on a site tour where they could see the gas production in process – real chemistry in action!
#Sciengchallenge - It's a threepeat!
For the third consecutive year our Year 10 students have won the South West Science Engineering Challenge which is a nationwide outreach program designed to inspire students to study science, engineering and technology. The Year 10 students participated in the regional competition at Deakin University completing problem solving tasks including bridge building and electronics. When asked why Timboon P-12 students consistently do well in this Challenge, Mr. Mottram explained that our students are encouraged to problem solve, persevere, to do their best and that rural students are very tactile learners. Well done team! #Sciengchallenge
CCC Champs
Once again our Year 7/8 students have completed against regional schools in Dairy Australia's Cows Create Careers Dairy Day facilitated by DeeJay Events. During the term students had worked on a report based on the weight gain and health of their calves, a science project, a team photo and group work. The groups were then awarded marks with two Timboon teams consisting of Bobby, Issac, Logan and Lachlan coming equal second with Dee Dee, Emily and Charlotte. All the competing schools' group scores were then totaled with Timboon recording equal first place with Kings College. Congratulations CCC students and thank you to all our visitors this year, especially Simone and Pete, and of course, Spud and Society!
The Fire Game
The Year 5/6 teachers and the TAP Coordinator were cognisant that students from Timboon P-12 School and surrounding areas were impacted by the St Patrick's Day fires and were cautious about the way this topic was covered during the Bushfire component of the Natural Disasters unit for this term. The focus was on comparing the 1983 Ash Wednesday and 2018 St Patrick's Day fires and reinforced the importance of being prepared and seeking assistance from community organisations. To conclude the term's work Sharna Whitehand, the Corangamite Shire Fire Recovery Coordinator, taught the Year 9 students 'The Fire Game' as part of their Homegroup sessions. The Fire Game was developed by the Surf Coast Shire and the Corangamite Shire to help communities be informed and prepared for the risk of fire with the tag- BE AWARE. BE PREPARED. GET CONNECTED. Our Year 9 students, in turn, taught the game to their Year 5/ 6 peers, using it as a prompt for discussion with the younger students about preparing for fires; the Year 9s, of course, have covered this topic in previous years. Thank you to Sharna and our Year 9 students for playing the Fire Game with our students and providing much lively discussion about household fire plans.
2019 CCC panel
As we wrap up Cows Create Careers for 2019 we have invited a panel of speakers into the Year 7/8 CCC elective classroom to describe their respective career paths including their education, experience, daily roles, features of their job that appeals to them, any quirks or benefits they receive and any pieces of advice for our students. Panelists included Jeremy Pike, a project officer with Heytesbury & District Landcare Network, Keely Price, a livestock / milk procurement officer from The Midfield Group, Dermot Kearns, a farm manager with The Midfield Group, Bronte Gorringe, an agribusiness consultant from Mulchay & Co who was accompanied by Charlie, and Michael Lyne, who owns and operates Michael Lyne Contracting. After the formal panel session Michael introduced students to his contractors Ben Newey who operated the disc seed drill, Chook Fowler with a self propelled sprayer and Matt Hanson who drove a silage/hay baler. Thank you to all our panelists for their time and interest in helping our students investigate potential career paths in agriculture.
Input. Bilyana. Output.
Simon Gleeson was invited into the VCAL Maths classroom to introduce Bilyana Grazing as a business model for VCAL students to investigate inputs, processes and outputs in agribusiness. Simon described the evolution of Bilyana Grazing, it's business structure and how the operation is paid on a weight gain basis rearing healthy, fertile dairy replacement heifers and that it has also diversified into Wagyu F1s. Students learnt that attention to detail, the calculated purchasing of inputs such as pellets and drench, a reliance on budgets/planning and using an Excel spreadsheet for decision making was an integral component of this business. Simon stressed that Maths was used to determine business running costs, animal production costs, cost benefit analysis, managing cashflow, benchmarking, goal setting and year to year comparisons which resulted in better decision making and efficiency. After this introduction to business analysis, our VCAL students will work on individual projects investigating number, measurement, financial numeracy or probability/statistics in agribusiness.

A practical, wood-burning kitchen stove had been invented in 1834, but they were not widespread in 1850. More importantly, even if one had access to the new invention, and the money to buy it, the large, iron stoves were tremendously heavy, and they were simply not the sort of thing one would try to take in a wagon across country. As a result, people on the frontier continued to cook the way people had cooked for centuries—in the large fireplaces that also heated their homes.
Hearth cooking was practical on one level—you were going to have a fire in that large fireplace, so might as well use it for cooking, too. However, it was also impractical, as wood was not as abundant on the prairies as it had been back east. Plus it was dangerous. The long skirts worn by women too easily snagged hot coals, and serious burns and even deaths were fairly common for the home cook. Still, with the passing of hearth cooking, many mourned the loss of the smoky flavor of meat slow roasted on a spit over a wood fire.

Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and from our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.
The candy corn from Halloween wasn't even on discount before the lights were up and the Christmas music started. And while the world speeds toward Christmas, the Church begins her celebration of her new year with a reading from Holy Week. Makes sense, right? Why is it that the world is wrapping itself in glitter and ornaments, and the church is hearing about Jesus going into Jerusalem to die? Simply put, our life as the body of Christ is centered on the death of Jesus and His resurrection from the dead. We start the new church year with a reminder that the people of God waited a long time for Jesus. The world wants instant gratification with things that don't really matter, while the church patiently awaits the coming of her Savior.
Since the Fall into sin, God promised that He would send His Son, the Seed to be born of a woman, who would save us from our sins. Advent reminds us that we're not the only ones who have waited. All the saints who have gone before us longed for Christ to come. Our Old Testament brothers and sisters in the faith waited eagerly for the coming of the Savior. Abraham didn't live to see it. Neither did Moses, Joshua, David or Isaiah. We rejoice that we get to see their hopes and promises fulfilled by Jesus. But now we wait for His return in glory. And since we have the testimony that Jesus was born and lived and died and rose again, we know that our waiting is not in vain because the Lord always keeps His promises. He promised to send His Son, and He did. And He promised to come again, and since He keeps His promises, we know He will come again.
But Advent also reminds us to wait. It is not for you to figure out when He will return, any more than it was up to Adam and Eve or Abraham and Sarah to fulfill the promise. And they tried. Adam and Eve thought Cain was the chosen one. Abraham and Sarah tried to force the fulfillment of the promise. No; it is for God to fulfill His promises in His time, and it is your job to wait and be ready. We know the He keeps His word. After all, the long-awaited Christ child was born. And then He grew up. He was baptized for you. He was tempted for you. He carried your sins for you. He was handed over for you. Mocked for you. Beaten for you. Spit upon for you. Scourged for you. Dragged to Calvary for you. Nailed to the cross for you. Died for you. And then He rose for you. His resurrection and ascension and all that He has done are yours. The world forgets. It rushes to Christmas and then, the next day, the toys are already forgotten and the gifts are put away or exchanged and just like that, Christmas is over. So it was when the Lord came in the flesh. His people eagerly awaited Him, and when they saw that He was no earthly king, they got tired of Him quickly and got rid of Him. But everything He did, He did for them. Everything He did, He did for you. They waited and waited, and whether they knew it or not, their waiting was not in vain. The Savior came.
Now we wait for the Lord until He comes again. But as we wait for that glorious return, He comes to us even now—not in showy ways, but in ways that are no less real. The Jesus who once came to His people in the prophecies of His Word and in a manger and on a donkey and on a cross, that same Jesus now comes to us in the font to wash and save. He comes in preaching and absolution to forgive. He comes in the Supper of His body and blood to live in us. We know that Jesus has come before. We know that He will come again. In the meantime, we receive Him in His Church, where He has promised to be. His Word and Sacraments are His pledge and promise that He will come again.
Jesus will come again in glory on the clouds of heaven with angels and the sound of the trumpet. He comes that day to raise us from the dead and give us everlasting life. On that day, all that He has done for us will be plainly seen. On that day, the sheep will rejoice and the wise virgins will welcome their bridegroom. His coming is not far away, though it may seem like it some days. In the meantime, He is right here where He has promised to be, reminding us that He is coming soon. Until that day, we live by faith. While the world rushes to prepare for a day that comes quickly and is soon forgotten, the Bride waits. Christ the Bridegroom is coming. We wait with joy. Our Lord is on His way, and He will come soon to deliver us from every evil and even from death itself. Even so, Lord Jesus, come quickly! In the name of the Father and of the Son (†) and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
The peace of God which passes all understanding will keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus always. Amen.

UAE tightens up on domain names
Cyber-squatting is tackled as the UAE simplifies the domain name registration process.
The United Arab Emirates Network Information Centre (UAEnic) has announced major changes to the UAE's .ae domain name registry process.
New registration policies and conditions aim to make cyber-squatting (the speculative registry of an unrelated name) more difficult. In addition, price reductions of up to 60 per cent per year and two new domain name categories - for professionals and individuals - have been introduced.
The new registration methods have received the endorsement of the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO), the international organisation dedicated to promoting the use and protection of intellectual property. The endorsement makes UAEnic the first Top Level Domain administrator in the Middle East to have obtained WIPO endorsement and the first to observe the best international standards and practices for domain name registration and disputes.
"The new rules, terms and conditions are key to laying the foundations as the UAE increases its presence online," explained Abdulla Hashim, Manager, UAEnic. "It describes the subjects of the domain name and includes registration practices, procedures, intellectual property rights, the registration agreement and the availability of contact details. The section detailing the dispute resolution, which is key to the new proposals, details alternative means for challenging existing domain names."
UAEnic has also increased the number of domain name categories; from seven to nine. The new categories are .pro.ae, which is designed for professionals, and .name.ae for personal sites.

Dr. Dame Daphne Sheldrick has been raising elephant orphans since 1977. All of these baby elephants have suffered terrible physical and emotional injuries. Most of which were inflicted by the devastating ivory trade and the loss of their mothers.
She even developed a milk formula that nearly mimics the taste and quality of an elephant's mother's milk. It's important that these baby elephants receive the nutrients they need in order to grow to their massive size.
When the elephants are old enough, and well enough, they are taken to a relocation center in Tsavo National Park, before eventually being returned to the wild. It's a passion and a joy for Dr. Sheldrick to see them back in their natural habitat.
Dr. Sheldrick says they're just like humans, "only better."
"They're not corrupted. Their sense of family is as strong as ours. Their memories are amazing and their convoluted thinking and reasoning is equal to that of a human … The caring and nurturing is far greater in elephants than it is in humans, and loyalty and friendship endures."

What Can Your Body Odor Reveal About Your Health?
Oct 19, 2018 by apost team
All of us are familiar with the unpleasant smell of body odor that is periodically present in ourselves and others. It is generally believed that sweat is the source of body odor.
This belief is not true. The true source of body odor is the accumulation of bacteria that breaks sweat down and converts it to acids that are responsible for the bad smells.
Body odor is also a concern because it can be an indicator of serious medical issues like liver problems and diabetes.
The following is a brief explanation of what some particular body odors may say about your health.
Fecal Smell
A fecal odor emanating from the body could be evidence of a bowel obstruction. This is a blockage that can take place in the small or large intestine and can signal the presence of a serious medical condition. These obstructions of the digestive tract can result in poop-smelling breath that can become worse each time the person eats.
Bitter Smell
A smell that is bitter could be a warning that the liver is not properly functioning. Problems with the liver are serious issues that warrant a trip to the doctor. When the liver is not working correctly, a variety of peculiar odors can be produced. Damaged livers can also cause both nausea and digestive problems.
Fishy Smell
Two conditions, Trimethylaminuria and Fish Odor Syndrome, are known to cause the offensive odor of rotting fish. The excessive excretion of TMA is responsible for the fishy smell.
The smell can be present on the breath, in the urine, or in the sweat of the affected person. These conditions are genetic and usually make themselves known not long after birth.
A fishy smell can also be caused by excess proteins in the diet or the presence of certain types of bacteria. This syndrome is treated with dietary adjustments, acid lotions, and antibiotics.
Sweet Smell
A sweet smell that comes from the body could be a sign of diabetes. The cause could be an over-accumulation of ketones in the body's bloodstream.
A sweet smell in urine could also indicate the presence of Maple Syrup Urine Disease. With this disorder, the amino acids leucine, isoleucine, and valine are not properly metabolized by the body.
Rotten Egg Smell
When there is too much meat in your diet on a daily basis, you may develop a repulsive odor. This odor may remind some people of rotten eggs. This particular smell is caused by the high concentrations of amino acids that contain sulfur present in meat.
This is especially true with red meat. These amino acids cause no harm to the body but when not properly digested will cause a not too pleasant smell.
Alcohol Smell
The body will recognize any alcohol that is consumed as a toxin and convert the substance to acetic acid. Approximately 90 percent of alcohol that is consumed is metabolized in this manner.
The remainder is excreted through urine, sweat, and respiration. The alcohol that is excreted is what causes the body to smell like a liquor distillery following a few drinks too many.
Sweaty Smell
If you sweat excessively it may be a good idea to get checked for hyperhidrosis. Many people with this condition are otherwise healthy. Over sweating is usually the only consequence of hyperhidrosis but the condition can sometimes be a sign of health issues.
Temperatures and emotions can be triggers for hyperhidrosis, however, many sufferers of the condition simply sweat during waking hours. The feet, groin area, and armpits are the main areas where sweat will accumulate in the human body.
Do you or someone you know exhibit smells at times that may be difficult to explain? Send this article to those you care about and discuss the article with them. Have you experienced of these odors before? Let us know in the comments.
Our content is created to the best of our knowledge, yet it is of general nature and cannot in any way substitute an individual consultation with your doctor. Your health is important to us!

These days, commercial district managers are struggling to figure out how to help local businesses survive during these difficult economic times. If you are one of those, a good New York Magazine article worth the read is What will it Take for Small Businesses, Shops and Restaurants to Survive? It discusses what many of you are wondering – how are small businesses coping as people cut back on their discretionary spending? New York magazine surveyed 100 businesses of all kinds throughout the five boroughs to find out. Reduced pricing, cheaper cuts of meat, adding lower cost items (like burgers) to the menu, more careful selection of merchandise that leaves out less popular items…all are strategies that businesses are employing to keep customers coming back to their stores. There also seems to be a return to old fashion customer service – taking extra care of the customer, greeting the customer at the door, taking the time to find out customer needs and wants…these are the tactics that will distinguish retailers that survive from those that don't.
Interestingly enough, there is a silver lining for some businesses. I can personally attest that IKEA is doing extremelly well – these days I'm there almost every other day picking up items for a minor renovations in my apartment! Other retailers are also showing gains, Walmart, Forever 21 and 99 Cent stores among them. Stores are also considering lower cost ways to reach their customers – see my post on Pop-Up stores for more on that…
If you are a commercial district manager struggling to find ways to help your local retailers – consider compiling a list of 'recessionary tactics' and including it in your next electronic newsletter and/or sponsoring a panel or seminar of merchants that are finding successful ways to cut costs.

As You Were
There we all stood
And the man before us,
His buttons were bright.
For he'd been in Korea
It was only the Cold War,
So we'd fall out each morning
"GOOD DAY, MEN!" he'd say
Now you don't address sergeants
And we learned to dig holes
And though boot camp
But what I loved most
"As you were," meant
That wrong information
Oh, the error was ours now
And we also knew well
For instance: "Train Fire
To me,"As you were,"
And take us back with him
Like being reborn!
He'd forgive all our errors
After which, from his
And I thought then of Adam
And of God, with His awful
And I thought what if God,
Allowing poor Adam
Would that have moved
So I thought when I die...
I'll appear at my judgment,
And pray that His Highness

Actor George Clooney and ex-girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis have been accepted as witnesses in the case against former Italy Premier Silvio Berlusconi, who is on trial for allegedly paying for sex with an underage prostitute, AP reports.
Clooney has said he visited the premier's residence only once, seeking aid for Darfur, but declined an invitation to stay for a party. "The Descendants" star told Time magazine, "I wasn't at the bunga bunga party. I went to speak about Darfur. ... It was a very interesting conversation to say the least, that became a very different kind of event than anyone ever thought." When asked to stay, the actor said he responded: "No, I gotta go." The witness list also includes Karima el-Mahroug, the Moroccan teen who is alleged to have had sex with Berlusconi in exchange for money. Both she and Berlusconi, 75, have denied a sexual relationship. The trial continues next week.

The red lips at Nina Ricci's spring 2016 show weren't just glossy: They gleamed under the lights of the runway. "They're supposed to be so glossy they look wet," said makeup artist Aaron de Mey, "the same effect as a can of Coca-Cola car paint—like a superluxurious, fast car." And just like a good automobile, these lips were meant to last, thanks to a few key tweaks De Mey made to the application process. Here's the Cliff Notes version.
1. De Mey started by applying a blue-based red lipstick (he picked one from Serge Lutens, but any will do). Then, using M.A.C. Lip Pencil in Basic Red, he went over the Cupid's bow. "When you apply lipstick first, you just have to use the lip liner to fine-tune a few edges rather than lining the whole mouth, which ends up looking more modern."
2. Next, De Mey took a Kleenex and peeled it in half, giving him two gossamer-fine pieces of tissue. He took one sheet, held it over the lips and brushed loose, transparent powder on top, creating a matte effect. Then he applied another coat of red lipstick.
3. Minutes before the show, De Mey coated the lips in a custom gloss he created by mixing an orangey-red gloss with bronze and copper pigments. "Layering the two different shades of red actually neutralizes the color," said De Mey, which, in real-people-speak, means it's more flattering on different skin tones. (At home, you can just use a glitter-flecked gloss like, Hourglass Extreme Sheen in Siren.)
While it might seem weird to mattify your lips when you want a superglossy end result, that's exactly what's going to make it stay put. "It actually prevents it from bleeding outside the lip line, so it looks extra-perfect," said De Mey. "Plus, it keeps the gloss from eating away at the lipstick underneath. So it's basically just a bit of extra insurance."

London is one of the most popular travel destinations in the whole world, attracting around 30 million international visitors every year.
Yet, London's urban myths sometimes can picture the capital in a very different way. Certain myths continue to persist from things of the past that are either no longer true, or never were in the first place.
Here are 7 of the top myths about London and the truth behind the hype.
It rains all the time, in London.
Britain is an island. The surrounding sea gives a varied climate. Such variable climate which changes from day to day, it's hard to predict the weather.
The thing about rain in London is:
– It's doesn't amount to much rain. London has less rain than:
Zurich: 42.5 inches
Milan: 39 inches
New York City: 47.2 inches
Miami: 60 inches
New Orleans: 63 inches
Dallas: 37 inches
While London only 29 inches.
But in all honesty, it does rain quite frequently.
It rains about 140 days a year in London. Which is more than New York (120 days), San Antonia ( 85 days), Miami (130 days),
But London's reputation for rain is higher than the reality of it, because:
It rains throughout the year.
It rains for a long time.
It rains on sunny days, and thus people notice it. In New York, you don't go outside on rainy days because it's obvious it's wet. In London, you think it's sunny and BOOM.
When it's not raining, it's cloudy, which people still think it's crappy. And people talk about it relentlessly.
So why does it rain so much?
It rains less in London than in many other parts of the U.K.
The wettest areas of the U.K. are on the western side of the country, not the eastern side. This is because the U.K. weather is characterized by westerly wind patterns, bringing wet air in from the Atlantic, which deposits most of its rain before it reaches the eastern side.
So, contrary to popular belief, it DOES NOT rain all the time in London! Yet, it is always advisable to bring some waterproof clothing and be psychologically prepared!
London is foggy
London in the middle of the 20th Century was a very industrialized and dirty city. The fog was actually smog and "The great smog of London" in 1952 killed over 4000 people. … On cold evenings the fog can still make an appearance; however, the smog has mostly been eliminated, making London no foggier than other major cities.
Too often visitors think that: "London is small".
Many people that travel to the U.K., often underestimate how vast London is. It's natural to think that London is a small city compared to cities in China, India or America; but, London is a massive place. Spread over 600 square miles and 10 million or so people live in the Greater London area. One of the hardest things to imagine is how big it is.
This shouldn't put you off. The actual touristy areas of London are in Central London. That area is pretty small and manageable.
The Tube is the best way to get around London, and it will profoundly influence your spatial perception of London. But you don't have to take the Tube everywhere. Many of the tourist sites in Central London are pretty close, and unless you want to ride the Tube over and over, you can walk between most places (and it's much cheaper).
Usually as soon as one mentions London,
"London is expensive" follows.
Yes, London is pricey. Like New York, San Francisco, Berlin, and every other major city in the world, it depends on how you approach it.
Indeed, you'll have to do your homework and look out deals before you travel or go out. Accommodation nowadays can be very affordable – you can find some beautiful places on Airbnb.
Also, several museums and the most popular tourist attractions don't cost anything to visit.
Food in London sucks
Although this myth is on its death bed after a long, slow battle, some people still think British food is awful.
Here are the reasons this is wrong: London offers every type of world cuisine you could probably think of, and most 'traditional' pubs now serve either Thai or Indian curry rather than bangers and mash or fish in chips.
It's also easy to get a quick, healthy takeaway in places such as Pret A Manger, Wagamama, Marks and Spencer, and Whole Foods.
Open-air meat, fruit, and vegetable markets abound, and there are plenty of vegetarian and vegan options throughout the city.
Borough Market is just one of London's great open-air food markets.
The people are standoffish and very "British"
Yes, British people are British. But I've found them to be super funny and often very open.
I wouldn't go so far on say they'll run up to you with arms outstretched or shout your name if they see you walking on the high street, but I find it's generally untrue that the Brits, or Londoners, are standoffish (distant and cold in manner).
The crucial thing to bear in mind is that we're all a lot more alike than we think. Most people are going to be open and helpful.
Getting into conversations with people in pubs, who either grew up or have lived in London for a long time, is a great way to see their animated discussions and dry humour.
You'll probably end up doubled over laughing at some point.
Londoners only drink tea.
You will have no problem finding coffee in London.
You may have more of an issue finding the traditional British black tea with cream outside of High Tea in Kensington Gardens and other top-end places throughout the city.
Try and take two steps without spotting a Costa, Caffe Nero, or Starbucks.

She looked at me not sure that I was going to figure it out. Then she said, "Daddy can do it." I didn't say anything and didn't know what to say. He had been dead for 6 months. She repeated herself, "Daddy can do it." Frustrated at the project and not knowing what to say I said, "M, daddy is dead. He can't do it. I will figure it out." I prayed I would figure it out. It finally came together and the parts started snapping together and the house was done. M said, "Mommy did it. Yay!"

First of all Thank You! I never considered this happened to anyone else. I was raised in the church with my own father as a bishop when I was 15 to after I moved away to college. My parents are still very active with some of my siblings still members. I removed my name from the church in 2006.
I was 12 years old and this was my first interview. Let me say, I had never really spoken to my parents about sex or my changing body or anything of that nature. When we had the films in 5th grade at school regarding sex, my mom handed me a book the night before called "a doctor speaks to 5 to 8 year olds" and left. I don't remember much of the interview, but I remember The Bishop asked me if I was having sex. I said no. He asked me if I knew what sexual intercourse was, and I answered "yes". He told me he didn't think I knew what it was and I needed to describe to him, in detail what it was. He kept asking more specific questions and wanting more specific details. I remember feeling so weird and uncomfortable and an inability to speak out and protest what felt wrong. My mother had already shown me by handing me a book about sex and leaving that she was not able to talk about it, so I never told anyone what happened – until now.
Thank you for this opportunity. Hopefully the abuse will stop.

Harney & Sons Pu-Erh Loose Tea 1 lb
Product Description
Pu-Erh is an ancient tea from Yunnan, China. Harney & Sons' version of Pu-Erh is dark, savory cooked pu-erh that makes for a striking brew -it is Pu-Erh Shou style. Shou Pu-Erh is different from Sheng Pu-Erh in that it is fermented before it is packaged, compressed or sold for consumption. This tea can brewed several times, for each additional brew, please steep tea an extra 15-30 seconds.
Interesting Fact:
Pu-erhs are the only truly ferment teas and they are made in the remote Yunnan Province (where the first tea plants were found). For the traditional method (aka green, raw, and sheng), the tea leaves are made and then stored. Then naturally occurring yeast react with the dry tea leaves, creating new and changing aromas and flavors. Sort of like sourdough bread, however it takes years and decades. For this Pu-erh, the aging and fermentation process has sped up. The Chinese have used the "wo dui" (the moist track). They pile the oxidized leaves into a heap in moist rooms, where the fermentation process is accelerated.
|Product Contains
|1 lb of loose leaf tea
|Large twisted dark brown leaves, with a bit of dust on the leaves
|Earthy aroma
|Caffeine Level
|Medium body
|Earthy and the better flavors to be found in a barnyard, like a simple Burgundy red wine. The flavors lighten and sweeten after a few brews.

If it's pure performance and no-frills energy you're looking for, your search is over. The new Toyota Supra is back and ready to set your pulse racing.
The all-new Supra draws on its 30-year racing heritage, boasting a low stance, a sleek, aerodynamic profile, and carefully balanced proportions. A distinctive lighting signature gives it an aggressive feel, while wide front air intakes prove that this model is all about performance.
Racing DNA runs through the Toyota Supra, influencing everything from its lightweight body materials to its fierce engine. Its lineage has bestowed upon it a front-mounted straight six-cylinder engine and a rear-wheel drive configuration – a combination which makes for pure driving thrills. Sporting the new A90 chassis for improved dynamics and a perfectly placed centre of gravity, it holds the road like never before, delivering exceptional cornering and responsive steering.
The best of the Supra's technology lies under its skin. An electronically controlled active differential and Adaptive Variable Suspension make this racer's handling what it is. The former controls the amount of torque sent to each wheel, while the latter offers superior comfort. Together, they make for a precise and agile drive both on the racetrack and the road.

Since the beginning of the 2017 Adult Swim singles program, the vashtie.com team has been keeping up with all of the tracks released for the duration of each month. With July ending, here is a quick overview of what Adult Swim has cooked up over the last four weeks.
"Superfun" by HXLT is a fun song with a sort of old school beat but with beatles like vocals. Odd mix I'd have to say but nonetheless a song that anyone would catch themselves nodding to at a stoplight.
Another cool song released in the program this month is "Come be me" by Helado Negro. This single gives off an old school R&B disco feel with smooth vocals. While also having relatable lyrics, it's obvious that this love song could have the potential to make it big. Recorded by Robert Carlos Lange, also known as Helado Negro, "Come be me" has production so good that it sometimes drowns out the beauty of the lyrics.
The last song that was released in the month of July is "Follow That Money" by Nick Hook. The beat is an obnoxious electronic dance hall beat that seems to be new to listeners. The song features Bunji Garlin and Fatman Scoop. Their voices mesh so well together on the song that it is shocking seeing how intense the instrumental.
Other songs released with the program this month are "Lips That Bite" by Downtown Boys and "Your Dystic Creation Doesn't Fear You" by Deerhoof ft. Awkwafina.
Adult Swim will continue to release the rest of the 52 tracks in the singles program as the weeks go by but until then, take a listen to the ones that have already released.

Insufficient pulmonary blood flow through a right ventricle-to-pulmonary artery conduit following the Norwood procedure is remediable by adding a modified Blalock–Taussig shunt (MBTS).1 First, however, perioperative hypoxemia must be managed. Venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) is likely to be a useful method for respiratory support in such cases.2,3 We present the case of a 2-month-old patient with graft dysfunction after the Norwood procedure who underwent MBTS with VV-ECMO support.

«The Word of God became flesh». God isn't mute. God hasn't stayed silent, enclosed forever in Mystery. God has desired to communicate Self with us. God wants to speak with us, tell us of God's love, explain God's project. Jesus is simply the Project of God made flesh.
But God hasn't communicated Self through concepts and sublime doctrines that only the learned can understand. God's Word has become incarnate in the tender life of Jesus, so that even the most simple can understand, those who know how to be moved in the face of goodness, love and truth that makes up his life.
This Word of God «has lived among us». Distances have disappeared. God has become «flesh». God dwells with us. In order for us to meet with God we don't need to leave the world behind, but come close to Jesus. In order to get to know God you don't need to study theology, but live in harmony with Jesus, communion with him.
«No one has ever seen God». The prophets, priests, masters of the law spoke about God a lot, but have never seen God's face. The same thing happens today among us: in the Church we talk a lot about God, but none of us have seen God. Only Jesus, «the Son of God, who is close to the Father's heart, who has made God known».
May we never forget it. Only Jesus has told us how God is. Only he is the source of coming close to God's Mystery. How many meager and barely human ideas about God must we unlearn in order to allow ourselves to be attracted and seduced by that God who is revealed to us in Jesus.
How everything changes when we finally capture that Jesus is the human face of God. Everything becomes simpler and clearer. Now we know how God looks upon us when we suffer, how God seeks us when we're lost, how God understands and forgives us when we deny God. In Jesus is revealed «the grace and the truth» of God

Matthew 2:1-12
Today there's much talk about the crisis of faith, but they hardly say anything about the crisis of religious sentiment. And yet, as one theologian points out, the drama of modern man isn't as much our incapacity to believe, as our difficulty to feel God as God. Even those who declare themselves believers seem to be losing the capability of living out certain religious attitudes in the face of God.
A clear example is the difficulty of adoring God. In times not so far back it seemed easy to feel reverence and adoration before the immensity and the unfathomable mystery of God. Today it's more difficult to adore the one whom we've reduced to a strange, uncomfortable and superfluous being.
In order to adore God it's necessary to feel ourselves as creatures, infinitely small before God, but infinitely loved by God; we need to admire God's unfathomable greatness and enjoy the near and loving presence of God that envelopes our whole being. Adoration is admiration. It's love and self-giving. It's handing our being over to God and remaining in grateful and joyful silence before God, admiring God's mystery from our smallness.
Our difficulty in adoring comes from many roots. Whoever lives disturbed inside by all kinds of noise and rushing around through a thousand distractions, without ever stopping before what's essential, that one will find «the adorable face» of God with difficulty.
On the other hand, to adore God it's necessary to stand still in the presence of the mystery of the world and know how to look lovingly upon it. Whoever looks at life lovingly in its depths will begin to uncover the footprints of God before he suspects it.
Only God is adorable. Not the most valuable things nor the most loved persons are worthy of being adored as God is. That's why only someone who is free within can adore God truly.
This adoration of God isn't far from commitment. Whoever adores God fights against all that destroys the human being, who is God's «sacred image». Whoever adores the Creator respects and defends God's creation. Adoration and solidarity, adoration and ecology are intimately united. That's how to understand the words of the great scientist and mystic Teilhard de Chardin: «The more human we become, the more we experience the need to adore».
The story of the Magi offers us a model of authentic adoration. These wise men know how to look at the cosmos in its depth, capture signs, come close to the Mystery, and offer their humble homage to the God incarnate in our existence.

A study commissioned by Mazda Motor Europe has found that 66 percent of drivers would prefer to stay behind the wheel even if self-driving cars become widely available, with the figures for UK, Germany, Austria and Poland at 71 percent, compared to 59 percent for Italy.
It was also found that only 33 percent of drivers "welcome the advent of self-driving cars". And 18-24 year olds were no more likely to rush to get self-driving cars than 25-34 year olds or 35-44 year olds.
Mazda Motor Europe's President and CEO Jeff Guyton said: "As a brand we simply love driving and this research demonstrates very clearly that a huge number of European drivers agree with us - of course, there is a role for self-driving cars but for us, and for many others it seems, there really is nothing quite like the physical pleasure of driving. This is why at Mazda we believe in putting the driver at the heart of everything we do and it's why our current Drive Together campaign focuses on the bond between car and driver.
"We call this Jinba Ittai which is the Japanese phrase used to describe the perfect harmony between the mounted archer and his horse. It is this human-centric philosophy that underpins our business and helps us create cars that bring the driver and their car closer together. If you look at the car industry in general, we believe that many manufacturers are taking a lot of the pure driving pleasure away from drivers. At Mazda we are fighting against this and it's clear from the research that there is still a huge percentage of drivers who just want to be behind the wheel. In a world that questions the act of driving and devalues the role of the car and the role of the driver through technological changes, we will continue to challenge convention for the love of driving."

Preserving Westmount's 273-Year-Old Hurtubise House
By Robert J. Galbraith for the Montreal Gazette 11/08/10
One of the Island of Montreal's few remaining and finest examples of early 18th century; French-Canadian style architecture, is being painstakingly preserved as a teaching beacon for those studying or interested in advancing their knowledge in early French vernacular architecture and its preservation.
The original Hurtubise ancestral home, built in 1739, has stood on Côte St-Antoine Road at the corner of Victoria Avenue in Westmount, for 273 years. According to the original contract, it took 4 stone masons 15 days to build the large, three-storey, fieldstone farmhouse. The home has three-foot-thick walls on the main floor and an attic and basement where grain and root vegetables were once stored.
But the house was nearly demolished and the property torn-up to make way for a new housing project in 1955. At that time, the last of the Hurtubise family members to live in the home and the 6th generation to do so, Dr. Leopold Hurtubise, passed away. After his death, his heirs were offered a deal to sell the house and land to a local developer, who planned to demolish the old home to make way for the construction of modern homes.
"Upon hearing about the possible sale, local historian, Alice Lighthall began the battle to save one of the oldest homes on the island," explained Doreen Lindsay, president of the Westmount Historical Association. Lighthall contested the development plan, hoping that the City of Westmount would buy the property. After this strategy fell through, she organized a public meeting to draw attention to the situation with the property. Westmounters, Colin Molson, his sister Mabel and their friend James R. Beattie read about her plea to save the home.
This meeting resulted in their decision to buy the property together. They purchased it outright in 1956, and then transferred its ownership to their newly-formed heritage protection association, 'Canadian Heritage of Quebec' (CHQ) in 1961.
"At the time, the Molsons were already aware of heritage buildings and their protection. They examined heritage preservation when they travelled to different parts of the world, especially in England. So they brought this philosophy back from their travels, using it as a guideline to preserving and saving the Hurtubise House," explained Jacques Archambault, director-general of the CHQ.
Archambault commented that no one has lived in the home since Dr. Hurtubise death in 1955, and it has remained pretty much in the same condition as it was then, helping make it such an exceptional candidate for preservation. "This along with the fact that from 1739-1955 the same family lived in this house also explains why there has been little modification of the interior or exterior. If it had changed hands a number of times, this might not have been the case. This structure has integrity and authenticity, and in the heritage field, this is most important to structure preservation," he said.
"In 2005 we (CHQ) undertook Phase I of preservation; the process of renovating the leaky roof to prevent further deterioration that threatened the integrity of the building, and at the same time we needed some restoration work done on the interior of the second floor," he said. "This summer we finished Phase II. That involved some work on the exterior stone facade, the gallery and some work on the interior."
He says that while it's an expensive process, everything has been done according to strict preservation rules, which means the home is being "preserved" as opposed to "restored" to its original condition. An example of this is that cracks in the walls were filled, but there was no finishing plaster put over the crack to blend it with wall, nor were they painted over. The filled cracks remain as they are, like timelines on a face. The interior walls were only wiped with a clean rag to remove decades of dust. Literally, everything remains as it was. The only modern addition to the home is a new dehumidifier and ducts added to the basement to protect the home from fluctuating humidity and the second floor kitchen was upgraded.
This is what makes this maison québécoise so magical. It is history in the rough; a time capsule in extraordinary condition along with a well-documented lineage of successive occupation. This strategy of keeping the structure in situ is a bold new thought process in Canadian heritage preservation.
In recognition of its unique heritage value, in 2004 the former Hurtubise family property and home were declared an historic site and monument by the Ministere de la culture et des Communications du Quebec. Jokingly, Archambault explained that now, "We can't even plant a tulip bulb in the yard or hammer a nail in the house without first getting a permit."
According to heritage research conducted by L. Robichaud and A. Stewart, the Sulpician Seigneurs of the island of Montreal granted land on the Côte in 1699 to Louis Hurtubise, in exchange for his land located near their Sulpician mountain mission, (on Sherbrooke Street West near Fort Street) for the land here.
Marin Hurtubise, the family patriarch and father of Louis, arrived at Ville Marie (as Old Montreal was originally called) in 1653 with the governor of New France, Paul Chomedey, Sieur de Maisonneuve. He was one of 103 new settlers that were recruited from France by de Maisonneuve to increase the population of Ville Marie and defend it from Iroquois attack. The addition of these 103 people boosted the population of the colony from 50 residents to just over 150. Also on board the same ship was Marguerite Bourgeoys, who founded the Congregation of Notre Dame of Montreal. Hurtubise was granted land in Ville Marie by de Maisonneuve as a reward for his good military service in the militia.
According to a survey conducted in 1731, it indicates that there was a stable, barn and wooden home standing on the site of the present Hurtubise House at 561-563 Côte St. Antoine Road, (Côte translates as "a neighborhood" in English) but these were believed gone by 1739 when habitant, Jean Hurtubise had the fieldstone house built. Over the decades, new homes and mansions have sprouted up around the Hurtubise House, leaving it as an island into the past, as the city grew up around it.
Part of the contract for constructing the house was that the owner provide the builder with scaffolding, the necessary fieldstone for the structure, as well as the sand and burnt lime used for making mortar. The exterior was originally covered in crépi, a type of stucco. This covering was removed by the Hurtubises' sometime after 1911, exposing the fieldstone exterior. (The entire population of Montreal at the time the Hurtubise home went up in 1739 was 4,200 souls; today that number has swollen to 1.9 million).
In the 17th and beginning of the 18th century, the area of Côte St-Antoine (present-day Westmount) was considered an extremely dangerous place to live, miles away from Ville Marie. Most of the early settlers lived in close proximity to Ville Marie and called the Hurtubise farm and surrounding Côte, "La haute folie, (loosely translated into English as "height of madness). But for those willing to take the chance scratching out a living on the south-facing slopes of the little mountain, they found the land extremely fertile and excellent for growing apples and melons, as well as grain crops.
This bounty of crops and other cash-earning enterprises made the Hurtubise family a fairly well-off family for the times. The exceptionally large size of the home and its fine quality would attest to that. Because of this prosperity, a red brick addition or annex was built onto the east end of the home in the 1870's, to house the extended family. A large gallery and bell cast eaves were also added. But the old brick bread oven that was built inside the main fireplace and projected out from the east wall of the old house, was filled-in with bricks when the annex was built. A section of the oven is still visible in the fireplace wall.
Archambault explained that the CHQ is a non-profit organization which for the last 50 years, has relied solely on funding from supporters, foundations and sometimes government grants for specific restoration projects. "We are only two part-time preservationists largely responsible for sustaining approximately 20 heritage buildings and natural sites in the province of Quebec, including the Hurtubise House. We need partnerships with different universities, non-profit organizations, volunteers and researchers," he explained.
"The provincial government provides some funding but that usually makes-up for only 30-40% of the total cost needed to go ahead with a particular preservation project. So we have to find this extra funding. This is why it takes so long to get anything done, and we also want a professional approach," he explained. "This is a heritage, educational opportunity and we need help to expose the pages of our past. Here you can go back in time just walking from room to room or floor to floor."
Suzanne Hurtubise, the great-grand-niece of Dr. Leopold Hurtubise remembers visiting her moms' great aunts and uncles as a young girl. "We lived 3 blocks away on Northcliffe and my mom and I would visit our family and the old home almost daily. I would play outside in the back near the old well. When I came inside I would always go right to the cupcakes and pies that always seemed to be there in the pantry," she reminisced.
"My great-uncle was Dr Hurtubise. I will always remember my uncle ducking his head down as he passed through the homes' small doorways when moving from room to room. He was such a distinguished gentleman."

This measure will start at the Suvarnabhumi office as it is the first inbound centre that receives parcels from overseas before distributing to other centres in the country. "Three more offices will soon follow including Laksi Centre, Bangkok EMS Centre and Bangkok Mail Centre," he added.
Thailand Post has also distributed 100,000 sanitary face masks to all its employees and advised them to wear them while interacting with customers, as well as keep the workplace clean at all times.

The current stage of the development of society poses a whole range of fundamentally new problems to the education system in the Republic of Belarus, caused by political, socio-economic, ideological and other factors, among which the need to improve the quality and accessibility of education should be highlighted. Increasing academic mobility, integration into the global scientific and educational space, the creation of economically optimal educational systems, increasing the level of corporate education and strengthening links between different levels of education, both higher and secondary special. One of the effective ways to solve these problems is the introduction of pedagogical innovative technologies. Improvement of technical means of communication has led to significant progress in information exchange. The emergence of new
information technologies associated with the development of computer facilities and telecommunications networks has made it possible to create a qualitatively new information and educational environment in the radio engineering college as the basis for the development and improvement of the education system.

We reported this morning that Liverpool have had a £57m offer for Naby Keita rejected by Red Bull Leipzig and now, Melissa Reddy has confirmed the news in Goal.
Liverpool have put our cards on the table and let the Germans know we're willing to pay enormous money for the 22-year-old, Jurgen Klopp's primary midfield target this summer.
Red Bull Leipzig's inner turmoil: Board split over €80m superstar
Although Leipzig have publicly stated the Guinean isn't for sale, today's reports suggest that many board members now believe a deal is sensible – considering Keita wants to leave and the fact they could sell him for five times what they paid for him (€15m) just last summer.
Reddy's update is that Keita will now hold yet more talks with his club to reiterate his desire to sign for Liverpool.
They rejected his opening attempt, as they did ours, but like Liverpool, Keita's going to persistently knock on the door until it hopefully opens…
We expect now that with RB weighing up their options, the move will progress, considering our enormous potential offer and the player's feelings.
A new bid will be tabled next week.
