Laws Of Nations
THOUGHT AND GENERAL RULES OF THE LAW OF COUNTRIES. Consequently, Vattel argues that alongside the required legislation of nations there exists the voluntary regulation of nations, which consists in the changes that must be admitted in the rigorous application of the law of nature by reason of the truth that there is no such thing as a acknowledged interpreter of it.
Between nations, the relation to struggle is never eradicated: the issues concerned are of a nature not to have the ability to be settled with out power or a suspension of power" (sont de nature à ne pouvoir être réglées que par une drive ou par une suspension de drive", Pensées, no. 1814).
Montesquieu dispenses with this reference to will: the legislation of nations is established without resulting from a contract; like several human law, it is related to material (local weather, terrain, mode of subsistence), religious and political conditions; finally the established truth (a selected right of peoples, correct to the Iroquois, the Romans, the Franks or the Tartars) by no means makes the veritable law, the law of nations primarily based on the true ideas" (EL, I, 3), that which matches no farther than what is critical … Read More

Well I think we all know which site Neil is talking about, and this very question had occured to me during the TV programme in which it was shown...
Quentin has broadly noted what the Treasure Act Code of Practice 1996 (Revised) says - although it is worth looking at the relevant paragraphs in greater detail (see http://www.culture.gov.uk/global/publications/archive_2002/treasure_code.htm).
There seems to be two main sequential, but interlinked (hence the difficulty), questions to decide here:
1) for the Coroner (see paragraphs 8 and 14 to 16 of the Code) - having previously declared items recovered from this site as treasure, the coroner will need to decide on the question of associated finds, and whether they should be defined:
a) as Treasure through qualifying as associated objects representing part of "...the same find as another object if it is found in the same place as, or had previously been left together with, the other object", and/or
b) should be treated as an entirely separate treasure case/s
c) are not Treasure
2) for the Treasure Valuation Committee and Secretary of State - the question of circumstances of discovery, and following this and in response to the above the eligibility for rewards in the context of an archaeological investigation
On the latter question paragraph 78 states:
"78. If a finder does not remove the whole of a find from the ground but reports it, thus affording the opportunity for the archaeological
excavation or investigation of the remainder of the find, the original finder will normally be eligible for a reward for the whole find and
not just that part which he himself had removed from the ground, although the Secretary of State will need to examine the individual
circumstances of each case."
Paragraph 81 then goes on to clarify what should happen where finds are made by archaeologists or 'anyone engaged on archaeological excavation or investigation':
"81. Rewards will not be payable when the find is made by an archaeologist or anyone engaged on an archaeological excavation or investigation. In cases of uncertainty archaeologists are recommended to require any individuals for whom they are responsible, or to whom they have given, or for whom they have sought, permission to search, to sign a statement waiving their right to a reward. If there is doubt as to whether the finder was an archaeologist (or a person engaged on an archaeological excavation or investigation) the Treasure Valuation Committee shall decide. This will not affect any interest that the occupier or the landowner may have in any reward. The proportion of any reward payable to an eligible landowner (or occupier) is 50 per cent. (See also paragraph 52.)"
So pertinent questions to ask might be, should or could some/all of the finds be defined as being 'part of the same find'? were the detectorists actions being coordinated/supervised directly by an 'archaeologist' or were they free to detect how, where, when and what they wanted? was there a project design or other documentation for the project which specified the use of metal detectors as a means of archaeological prospection?
Not sure if this gets you any further in this case, but there are clearly lessons to be learned in making sure that any archaeological investigations utilising volunteer detectorists are covered by appropriate agreements and waivers - I imagine some of you may have already drafted such agreements and I would certainly be interested in seeing examples.

A nurse has been leading the development of a powerful film that raises awareness of perinatal mental health.
Barbara Jayson, specialist liaison health visitor at St Georges University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust in London, is behind Beyond Baby Blue, a drama that weaves womens true experiences into the story of a pregnant young woman who suffers the devastating effect of postnatal depression.
A short training document drawing out themes from each scene accompanies the film.
Barbara says: Many healthcare professionals have admitted to being unsure of the perinatal mental health pathways in their trusts and in some cases. They are also unsure of warning signs and symptoms of perinatal mental illness in mothers in their care.
It is well known that significant mental health problems during and after childbirth can cause enormous distress and seriously impact on the care of a newborn baby and existing children, and interfere with the adjustment to motherhood.
This film aims to improve the knowledge and awareness of healthcare professionals, thereby improving the treatment of mothers and subsequently their attachment with their babies.
While working as a health visitor, Barbara met several women who felt let down after their perinatal mental illnesses had not been diagnosed and treated in a timely manner. She felt a film would help raise awareness of their care needs.
She joined forces with former BBC researcher and mother Emma Whittaker who had personal experience of perinatal mental health illness and approached production company White Boat TV and charity Best Beginnings about making Beyond Baby Blue. They secured funding from the Burdett Trust for Nurses and the Galvani Charitable Foundation.
Beyond Baby Blue, launched in April, is free to all NHS trusts.
Barbara is a finalist in the mental health category of the RCNi Nurse Awards 2016, the professions top accolade for nursing excellence.
Mental Health Practice editor Colin Parish was on the shortlisting panel. He says: The RCNi Awards are always a great platform for mental health nurses to show how they are using their skills and ingenuity to bring about meaningful change for the service users they work with.
This years entries are strong and they demonstrate that nurses, as always, are doing their best in the challenging world of mental health care.
All the shortlisted nurses are touching the lives of the people they encounter and making a difference to their quality of life. They should all be immensely proud of their achievements.

Euro 2012: Ronaldo brace knocks out Netherlands
Cristiano Ronaldo finally found the form he was lacking at the European Championship, scoring twice to give Portugal a 2-1 win over the Netherlands and a spot in the quarterfinals.
Cristiano Ronaldo finally found the form he was lacking at the European Championship, scoring twice Sunday to give Portugal a 2-1 win over the Netherlands and a spot in the quarterfinals. (All AFP and AP Images)
Portugal will now face Group A winners Czech Republic in the last eight.
Touted as one of the favourites, the Dutch had a poor tournament and lost all three games to finish last in their group.
The Netherlands have beaten Portugal only once in their past 10 meetings, in 1991.
Ronaldo failed to sparkle in Portugal's 1-0 loss to Germany and 3-2 win over Denmark, but he was devastating against the Dutch.
He produced an equalizer with his first goal of the tournament in the 28th minute and scored the winner in the 74th. He had a half dozen other attempts at goal, including a low drive that clipped the post in the 16th, and he set up two clear chances for team-mates.
For his second goal, Ronaldo received a pass from former Manchester United team-mate Nani, and he coolly wrong-footed his marker and tapped the ball past the goalkeeper.
Needing a win to have a chance at staying in the tournament, the disappointing Dutch fielded an impressive attacking lineup featuring Klaas-Jan Huntelaar and Robin van Persie up front. It wasn't enough to keep them at Euro 2012.
Rafael Van der Vaart also got a start and gave the Netherlands the lead in the 11th minute at the Metalist Stadium.
But Portugal then took control of the match.
Though brimming with talent, the Dutch could not find the goals despite adding Huntelaar alongside Robin Van Persie, the leading scorers in the Bundesliga and Premier League, respectively.
"I think we started quite well today and we scored after about 10 minutes," said Holland coach Bert van Marwijk. "But you saw that when we concede a goal, the uncertainty remains. If we'd scored a second, we might have been more sure of ourselves, but we didn't take our chances."
Portugal coach Paulo Bento had anxious moments but at the end was a very happy man.

My mother is currently deployed in Arkansas and passed this bit of information along.
Her email*: "Did you know Hot Springs, Arkansas, was the premier baseball spring training site from the 1880s-1940s? The Chicago White Stockings, Cincinnati Reds, Pittsburgh Pirates, Boston Red Sox and others came to soothe their aching muscles at the many bathhouses using Hot Springs National Park water."
I did not know this, but let's get down to the important stuff…
In alphabetical order, the teams whose Spring Training was held in Hot Springs:
Boston Red Sox – 1909-10, 1912-18, 1920-23
Brooklyn Superbas/Dodgers/Robins** – 1910-12, 1917-18
Chicago White Stockings/Cubs*** – 1909-10
Cincinnati Reds – 1910-11
Detroit Tigers – 1908
Philadelphia Phillies – 1912
Pittsburgh Pirates – 1901-13, 1920-23
St. Louis Browns**** – 1911
The earliest team to use Hot Springs as a spring training facility was the White Stockings, (NPR reports that in 1885 Cap Anson took his team — and a reporter — to Hot Springs for training, but I can't find any research to back this up. It's NPR though, so I tend to believe them…they likely had access to the newspaper archives.) the last were the Red Sox and the Tigers in 1923. I don't know where the 1940s number comes from because after 1900, Baseball Almanac (where the teams/dates are pulled from) is very thorough.
*Clearly a trivia piece she pulled from somewhere (probably the NPS site) because she doesn't actually talk like this.
**They changed their name to the Dodgers after the 1910 season, then were the Robins from 1914-1931 before going back to the Dodgers — which, incidentally is short for Trolley Dodgers.
***The White Stockings changed their name to the Colts after the 1889 season, the Orphans after the 1897 season and then to the Cubs after the 1901 season.
***Now the Baltimore Orioles.

I am visualizing a collection of 3d animatronics structures, each one inside of an aquarium sized Plexiglas box, each one illustrating a very simple algebraic equation. These could just sit in a corner, and could be activated by a curious or bored student, with the teacher having an interlock start/stop app on phone that makes the box active or inactive. These should be in classrooms, from kindergarten on up. Rotate different ones, once a month.
My first algebra teacher was a math major working on his PhD at Berkeley, and he knew nothing about how to teach, other than to repeat over and over again exactly how he was taught, with no effort to determine where there were communications gaps.

American Ballet Theatre: Giselle
Metropolitan Opera House, New York, NY; May 27, 2015 (m & e)
Jerry Hochman
At first, I was bemused at the thought of scheduling two farewell performances on the same day. It wasn't what was originally intended, but when Paloma Herrera wisely decided to finalize her American Ballet Theatre career with Giselle, I thought the company would change her schedule so both she and Xiomara Reyes, whose farewell had already been set for May 27 evening, could have a celebration to themselves. But having both goodbyes the same day provided a sense of symmetry that brought with it unexpected benefits.
There's something about a 'farewell' that brings out the best, and these performances were no exception – both for the retiring ballerinas and their lead casts. And for both, the cheers began as soon as each, in character, stepped onto the stage, and continued repeatedly through the flowers and tears and the multiple curtain calls.
There never was a ballerina with a more perfect name. Paloma. In Spanish, it means 'dove.' And unless you were fortunate enough to see her cross Lincoln Center plaza while still a teenager, as I was (even then, she was instantly recognizable), your introduction to Paloma Herrera possibly was rather appropriate – and no less spectacular. It was November 20, 1994, and she was pictured on the front cover of the New York Times Magazine, on Spring Street in SOHO (back when it could be emptied of tourists or closed off without creating a traffic nightmare), posing en pointe in perfect near-180° attitude, torso upright, arms spread, prepared to take flight – and looking every inch the star she would become. Her rise through ABT was meteoric: she joined the company in 1991, became a soloist in 1993, and a principal in 1995.
By the time I first saw Xiomara Reyes, she had already become an audience favorite; not only because of her obvious talent, but also for her sweet-as-sugar stage persona. Like Herrera, her rise through ABT was rapid — after joining the company as a soloist in 2001 she was promoted to principal in 2003. Reyes's stage persona had a palpable measure of warmth coupled with vulnerability. Following my introduction to her as Juliet in a 2004 performance, I observed she was ABT's latest sweetheart. And as her performance opportunities increased (like Herrera, she seemingly danced every role there was to dance), she excelled in each of them.
Their farewell performances were fine choices. Giselle is a role they've done very well in the past, and can still do very well. Although there were significant differences in the two performances and they don't at all blend together into the memory, they were differences in degree one way or another, not in capability or execution. Indeed, they looked somewhat like performance bookends.
Certainly Herrera and Reyes' years of experience showed, but in a positive way. They both utilized their experience to enhance their portrayals. Herrera delivered an exceptional Act I, with superb characterization and human quality. Her 'mad scene' particularly shined. I overheard several people at intermission saying that her retirement was premature. Reyes' Act I was no less well done, and with the speed that has been one of her hallmarks since her first appearance with ABT. That both pulled off the technical demands and ethereal requirements of Act II defied their respective ages. The evening would have been memorable regardless of performance quality; that they delivered memorable performances as well was a bonus.
But it wasn't just the retiring dancers who delivered memorable performances. Their respective Albrechts, Roberto Bolle and Herman Cornejo, gave exceptional portrayals as well. Although a company member, Bolle doesn't appear very frequently. That being said, he has been the Albrecht of choice for many retiring ballerinas, with good reason. Like Marcelo Gomes, he makes his ballerina, whoever it is, look good. And although he's no longer a twenty-something phenomenon who resembles Christopher Reeve, when the choreography permits him some solo histrionics, he's still a danseur Superman. In his concluding Act II solo, the audience gasped. When Bolle not only equaled the outstanding entrechats produced by Vladimir Shklyarov the previous Saturday, but did so with even greater clarity. No wonder the audience gasped. And what must be his standard operating ending is particularly moving.
Cornejo's Albrecht was one of his most aggressive outings. He too was in command, and he was Reyes' shadow, making certain that she never listed on his watch. His noble bearing, which he has had to develop over time (by that I mean that he wasn't born to be a danseur noble – he earned it), was impressive throughout. And in terms of acting, both were superior to Shklyarov.
Aside from the corps, which shined with its usual brilliance through both performances, the other featured dancers at both performances rose to the occasions. In the evening, Patrick Ogle delivered an impassioned portrayal of Hilarion, and Thomas Forster repeated his execution of the role at the matinee. Devon Teuscher (matinee) and Stella Abrera (evening) were both vital, powerful Myrtas, and Luciana Paris' matinee Moyna and Leeann Underwood's evening Zulma were particularly noteworthy.
But the most vibrant additions to both performances came in the Peasant pas de deux, especially from Skylar Brandt and Arron Scott in the matinee – evidence that, perhaps, there is a long overdue effort by ABT management to expand opportunities beyond what has become standard casting. Both corps dancers, Brandt and Scott are a fortuitous stage pairing in that they complement each other well. Scott took chances I've not previously seen – not all of them worked, but he gets high marks for effort, and for his excellent partnering. Brandt provided an unusually fine, effervescent performance, with far more variety of expression than one would expect from someone so young. She looked every bit the peasant girl who can dance rings around anyone else in the village, and her enthusiasm is contagious. Subject to seeing how she handles Romantic roles, she's on track to be a Giselle some years down the road.
The celebrations following the ballet's conclusions were similar, but heartfelt in both cases. With their audiences immediately leaping to their feet to provide the well-deserved standing ovations, each corps dancer placed a rose at Herrera and Reyes's feat, atop 'performance' roses, and each principal dancer and members of the artistic staff, as well as some alumnae returning for the occasions (I noticed Angel Corella at both celebrations) presented flowers, or kisses, or both. Soloists and other corps dancers and personnel overflowed onto the stage from the wings, and bouquets were tossed from the audience.
The similarity of the celebrations didn't in any sense diminish their individual significance, or their sincerity. The tears – from Herrera and Reyes and the dancers who surrounded them – were real. And although relatively programmed, the festivities are joyous, and permit remarkably unprogrammed insights into these dancers as people no longer wearing their stage skin. For audiences, the individualized experiences and memories provided are as enduring as the memories of these retiring dancers' performances.

Students keen to pitch ideas towards creating an impactful syllabuspune Updated: Jan 11, 2019 14:53 IST
Sir Parshurambhau College or S P College, as it is known, has been awarded the autonomous status and it is one among eight institutions in Maharashtra to have got the status.
The autonomous status has been conferred on the age-old institution after they submitted the proposal under the University Grants Commission (UGC) for a period of ten years, effective from 2019-2020 to 2028-2029
"We are very happy and excited to have received this status as this means we will have autonomy to plan the syllabus and evaluation methodology. The current syllabus is bulky and redundant and has less relevance to the market and industries in terms of student skill sets. It is important for the syllabus to be outcome oriented and should be beneficial to the students so that students have entrepreneurial qualities after completing college," said Anil Dusane, vice-principal, planning and development, SP College.
The autonomous status is given to institutions who get National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) score of 3.5 and above, by the University Grants Commission. SP College secured a score of 3.7
Satish Pawar, chairman, local management committee, S P College, and member of the managing committee, Shikshan Prasarak Mandali said, " We have been constantly encouraging the college to apply for autonomous status as it would be advantageous to the students. It gives us the freedom to design a curriculum that is student centric and job-oriented. Exams can also be conducted independently."
The way ahead
The college officials have already met to discuss the way ahead, apart from asking for inputs from students. The revised syllabus will begin from the upcoming academic year which starts from June 2019. While the economic students would like a course on Mathematics and Statistics, students from the Political Science department have asked for Public policy courses. Science students have asked for Bio-informatics, Electronics and Embedded systems. Art students have asked for courses in travel, tourism and mass communication to be added.
Though the autonomous status will be beneficial for the students who will be joining the college in June 2019, every student of the college is elated and is eager to pitch in their ideas towards creating an impactful syllabus.
Rohan Garge, a second year student studying B Sc said, " We had an outdated syllabus which was created in 2013 The new syllabus must have project assignments, seminars to make the learning interesting. The students' attendance would increase if the classes are made interesting."
Pratiksha Ghodke, a third year student studying B Sc (zoology) said that she is proud of her college. "We have many restrictions in terms of practicals and on working on research projects. With the new syllabus, there will be better opportunities to try newer experiments which can be carried forward later, post college too.
Nachiket Joshi, a second year student studying BSc said, "It is the best thing to have happened to my college. Right now, all departments have been working independently and with autonomous status, we can work together towards one idea."

HALESTORM Talks Inspiration Behind 'Love Bites' Song In Video Interview
Video footage of the Atlantic recording group HALESTORM talking about the inspiration behind their new single, "Love Bites (So Do I)", can be seen below. The song comes off the band's new album. "The Strange Case Of…", which arrives in stores and at all DSPs on April 10.
"Love Bites (So Do I)" — as well as three other highlights from "The Strange Case Of…" — is featured on HALESTORM's new EP, "Hello, It's Mz. Hyde", which is available at all leading digital retailers.
Produced by Howard Benson (who previously collaborated with the Pennsylvania-based hard rock band on their self-titled 2009 debut), "The Strange Case Of…" was recently named among Revolver's "Most Anticipated Albums of the Year." "Led by one of our favorite rocker babes, singer-guitarist Lzzy Hale, (HALESTORM) promise a more personal album for their follow-up," the magazine noted. "But don't expect them to get all sappy on us. There should still be more than enough of the band's now signature raucous attitude and righteous riffs for any headbanger to get off."
HALESTORM will hit the road hard to support "The Strange Case Of…", beginning with a major U.S. trek alongside GODSMACK and fellow Atlantic recording group STAIND. The dates get underway April 13 at Augusta, Georgia's John Paul Jones Arena and then continue through mid-May.
Formed by frontwoman Lzzy Hale and her brother, drummer Arejay Hale, HALESTORM has been hailed far and wide as an incendiary new force in modern hard rock. "Halestorm" made a top 5 debut on SoundScan's "Hard Music" chart upon its 2009 release, simultaneously bursting into the top 40 on the comprehensive The Billboard 200. The album subsequently sold more than 300,000 copies, and half a million cumulative tracks. Produced by Howard Benson (DAUGHTRY, MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE, FLYLEAF), the album earned extensive acclaim for its infectious hard rock anthems, sexy hooks, and rough-and-tumble grooves.
"The Strange Case Of…" marks HALESTORM's first release since last year's "ReAniMate: The CoVeRs eP", which saw the band putting their unique stamp on a diverse collection of classic songs, including tracks by GUNS N' ROSES, THE BEATLES, HEART, TEMPLE OF THE DOG, SKID ROW, and LADY GAGA. HALESTORM also unleashed their first-ever live CD/DVD, "Live In Philly 2010", featuring such favorites from the band's self-titled debut as "It's Not You", "Familiar Taste of Poison" and the rock radio smash "I Get Off".
True road warriors, HALESTORM made its bones as a major league hard rock outfit via countless North American gigs alongside such artists as SHINEDOWN, AVENGED SEVENFOLD and DISTURBED. Last year saw the band traveling the country on the blockbuster "Avalanche Tour 2011", joining such hard rock luminaries as STONE SOUR, THEORY OF A DEADMAN, ART OF DYING, and fellow Atlantic recording group SKILLET.

Bad news. My 3401 died on me yesterday mid detail.
So I have owned this machine for about 10 years or so. I would say I have averaged about 20 hours a week on it since I got it. That's a lot of hours on one money making machine and it owes me nothing. The only thing I have done to the machine is replace maybe 5 backing plates since the hook part (of the hook and loop) is a wear item and is expected to wear out after time and use.
Now the good news....... I replaced the brushes(that I had sitting as spare for 6 or so years), cleaned up the internals and.....BANG. BACK TO WORKING LIKE NEW!!!!!!
Flex builds solid machines and mine has been used and abused. For anyone considering a Flex, let this be testimony of how durable they are.

The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC), on Thursday, cautioned the general public against consumption of Puffer Fish.
The Director-General of NAFDAC, Prof. Moji Adeyeye, gave the warning in a statement in Abuja.
A puffer fish is one of the many species belonging to the Tetraodontidae family of marine and estuary fish. It's also called blowfish or fugu in Japanese, among various other names. In all fairness, a puffer fish can actually be eaten safely despite being known as a deadly fish. But you can do this only if (with emphasis on the IF) you know how to prepare it properly. You just have to identify the lethal organs and know how to remove them.
The liver, skin, eyes, kidney, intestine, and ovary of a puffer fish contain tetrodotoxin (TTX), a substance known as one of the most toxic poisons found in nature. It is far more lethal than a cyanide. Each puffer fish has different concentration levels of TTX. But according to scientists, even a little dose of 1 - 2 milligrams of purified toxin can be fatal. And a gram of fugu is enough to kill 500 people. Unfortunately - and this is the sad part - there is no known antidote to it yet!
"Adeyeye explained that the fish might contain the potent and deadly toxins tetrodotoxin and saxitoxin, which could cause severe illness and death.
She said that some organs of the fish, such as liver and gonads (ovaries and testes), the skin and intestines typically contained the toxin. According to her, cooking or freezing cannot destroy the toxin."
She added that freezing and thawing of the product prior to removal of the toxic organs might result in the migration of toxin into the flesh of the fish.
"Restaurants and fish sellers are warned not to serve or sell this fish also known as puffer, swellfish, fugu, globefish or sea squad among other names, as this will severely endanger public health.
Due to the potential health hazard associated with the fish, NAFDAC does not allow importation or sale of puffer fish. And we hereby alert the general public on dangers of consuming PUFFER FISH," she stated.

UWTSD Home - Research - Classics Research - Arediou-Vouppes (Lithosouros) A Late Bronze Age Farming Community on Cyprus
Research is ongoing at Arediou-Vouppes, a Late Bronze Age settlement in Cyprus. The site is located at the interface between the Mesaoria plain and the northern foothills of the Troodos mountains.
The site at Arediou was first identified by SCSP in 1993, and was classified as an agricultural support village, based on the large quantities of pithos sherds (storage jars) and ground stone tools found on the surface. It was suggested that agricultural surplus from Arediou was used to support communities at nearby mining settlements or was perhaps sent to the larger urban centres. Fieldwork carried out since 2004 has tested this hypothesis.
Research Objectives
Various settlement models have been suggested for LBA Cyprus. These form the basis for complex socio-economic models integrating smaller inland settlements with the coastal towns. However, the nature of inland settlement and agricultural production on the island is poorly understood, not least because excavations have tended to focus on the larger urban centres. Consequently, the primary objective of research at Arediou is to examine the nature of occupation for a small LBA settlement in the Cypriot interior. Specifically we aim to:
- Define a farmstead or village according to its material remains (its architecture, pottery assemblage, lithics, etc).
- Establish the economic basis (eg. agricultural, pastoral, involvement in copper procurement and production).
- Explore possible integration in island-wide socio-economic systems (indigenous and extra-insular trade, economic documents, luxuries).
Other aims are to examine the nature of funerary practices at Arediou; whether these belong to an older, rural tradition of extramural cemeteries or the LBA tradition of burial within the settlement.

The project is sponsored by INSTAP and is affiliated to the American Schools of Oriental Research (ASOR). Special thanks are due to Dr Pavlos Flourentzos, Dr Maria Hadjicosti (former Directors, Department of Antiquities, Cyprus), Despo Pilides (Acting Director, Department of Antiquities, Cyprus) and Eftychia Zachariou. The project has been supported by the local community, in particular the village mayors, Andreas Petevenos and Ioannis Ioannou, Papa Petros (the village priest) and Maria Vasileio.
The initial pilot study of Arediou was made under the auspices of the Council for British Research in the Levant. We have also received funding from ASOR, the Society of Antiquaries, the Prehistoric Society, the Pantyfedwen Fund (University of Wales), and West Wales 2000 Ltd.
The primary focus of this study season was the completion of specialist studies, photography and finds drawings in preparation of the final publication of the site. Work was funded by a research grant from the University of Wales, Trinity Saint David. A key aspect of the research completed was an analysis of the faunal remains by Dr Ros Coard (UWTSD). Dr Coard likewise studied the human bones from Tomb 1, excavated in 2006 and completed a comparative analysis of these skeletal remains and the Bronze Age human populations from Kalavasos. Detailed analyses of the ground stone tools revealed interesting patterns of use and re-use of materials, including a broken quern re-used as an anvil. Slag from the site and the copper/copper alloy objects recovered in previous excavations, are being studied by Lente van Brempt, University of Cyprus.
Another priority of the study season was enhancing the visual record of Arediou. Alongside the comprehensive photographic record and the ongoing digitisation of the site plans, sections and finds drawings, the visualisation of Arediou included the creation of an artist's impression of Bronze Age activities at the site. This was created by Eloise Govier (PhD candidate, USTSD) and has since been presented to the village school.
Community engagement has continued to be an important aspect of research at Arediou. In 2012 the project ran a couple of interactive, hands-on workshops at the village school. Amongst the activities the children had the opportunity to grind grain on saddle querns, and to handle a variety of stone tools, animal bones and copper slag from the site. We supplied the teachers with photographs of the excavation which they have used in follow up archaeology classes.
In 2011 the CBRL partially funded archival work at Arediou Vouppes, helping towards further stud of material remains in preparation for the final publication. During this season we took the opportunity to promote dissemination of our excavation work to the local community, through the distribution of a booklet "Εκθεση του Αρεδιού" via the presiding mayor and the local council.
Another key aim was to create a photographic record of the northernmost limits of the site (Field 1033 on the 1922 cadastral map) where archaeological remains are clearly visible: we have recorded plentiful Late Bronze Age material here in previous seasons, including Plain ware and pithos sherds, ground stone tools, and a fine example of a senet gaming stone. Stone walls are clearly visible here in areas where the surface is being eroded by animal activity.
We also began library based comparative research of Arediou Vouppes and other Late Bronze Age hinterland sites. The architecture uncovered to date and aspects of the material culture clearly recall the so-called rural sanctuary at Ayia Irini, excavated by the Swedish Cyprus Expedition.
Excavations continued in Building 1: the storerooms were completely uncovered, and a new work area identified. Here a large stone, possibly used as an anvil, was uncovered in association with a work surface, comprising pieces of slag set in a mortar floor. Nearby, we identified an open courtyard area with substantial pitting. Several pits contained burnt material, which is currently being examined by Dr John Crowther, UWL. We also tested the northern limits of Building 1. Here, as elsewhere in the site, there was some evidence for later Iron Age activity, including some Red Burnished pottery similar to that found in the southern Levant.
Building 2 was further explored and a second long, open ended room was identified. Limited finds were recovered in the building, but rich deposits were found immediately to the south of the building, including a number of loomweights.
Several more gaming stones were identified at the site. These now comprise a significant element of the material culture and are currently being examined by Loveday Allen, UWL.
An important aspect of this year's fieldwork was a soil micromorphology project, carried out by Dr Richard MacPhail, University of London. The primary aim is to identify floor surfaces; also an understanding of the use of local soils in the manufacture of mortars.
The primary focus of the study season was the workroom (109) identified in Building 1 in 2006, in particular the group of utilitarian ceramics found in situ on the floor. Six semi-restorable vessels have been identified, including a rare Plain ware basin, several Plain ware jugs, a small short-necked pithos and a "Canaanite jar". These vessels seem to suggest that storage and processing of a liquid commodity was an important activity within the building.
A sounding immediately to the south of the workroom allowed us to explore an unusual bench-like feature built from flat slabs. The construction of this bench recalls the flat stand around the well in Building 2 and a work area (75) identified in Building 1. The materials used are extraneous to the site: a possible location several kilometres away for these slabs has been suggested by the villagers of Arediou, this will need to be verified in the coming seasons.
In December 2007 we completed a geophysical survey of the site. The resulting gradiometer map (with overlays of the survey and excavation data) will provide us with preliminary data concerning the physical relationship between Buildings 1 and 2, as well as the various structures identified further to the west in 2005.
Excavation largely concentrated on Building 1, a large, "industrial", complex. An outside south-facing portico provided a shady place for activities during the summer months and a sheltered area for the winter months. Inside the building we identitifed a large couprtyard and work area, associated with a couple of storerooms. An intriguing sunken room was partially excavated. Here we found several indications of specialised, non-industrial activities, including a high percentage of imported vessels and several wall bracket fragments.
Amongst the finds found in Building 1 were several ground stone tools, including pestles, grinders, rubbers, a hammer stone, and a well-worn saddle quern, the latter found by the doorway in the portico area. several restorable Plain ware basins and jugs were found in the storerooms. Associated with the work area we found around 10kg copper slag and several copper/copper alloy trinkets. Another interesting object which was initially identified as a tethering stone, but is now believed to be a stone anchor or weight, was also found within the work area.
A second complex, has also been identified in Field 4. This consists of an open-ended building (9m in length), a courtyard and a small room containing a well (5.2m deep). Associated with the well is a small pebbled surface (possibly for standing containers on). A large saddle quern (c.90 kg) was found at a depth of 3.3m in the well. Other finds from the complex include a gaming stone and a foundation deposit of a Plain ware jug. A shallow sump-shaped pit was discovered at the southern end of the building, the purpose of which is still unclear, although its proximity to the well, suggests that it may have served to collect surface water, which in turn filtered through into the well. Interesting foundation details were also uncovered in sections of the building relating to the methods used for laying/shuttering locally made mortar. Work is currently in progress in conjunction with a Cypriot researcher into these techniques.
One of the more significant discoveries in 2006 (funded by West Wales 2000 Ltd.) was that of a tomb which had been looted in the Early Iron Age. Even though the main chamber had been densley packed with rubble, a multiple burial was unearthed on one side of the tomb floor. Grave goods included a rare round-based Black Slip jug, also a beautifully preserved bronze hook-tanged spear. Such items of military display are typical of LC I burials in the Tamassos-Poliko region. A later burial episode is represented by a complete Mycenaean stirrup jar. Alongside the grave goods on the chamber floor were human remains. Consisting mainly of longbones, mandibles and teeth, with no crania present; there were at least three individuals represented. Arrangements are being made for a comprehensive analysis of the bones including a current attempt to extract meaningful DNA from a sample of longbone.
Significant quantities of LC ceramics and lithics (ground and chipped stone tools) were recovered on the surface. The main phase of occupation dates to the 13th century but consistent recovery of LC I ceramics illustrate an earlier occupation phase in the 16th century BC. The range of pottery is also more varied than suggested by the initial reports; namely the presence of imported ceramics from Egypt, the Aegean and the Levant. In addition, part of an inscribed Minoan stirrup jar was found immediately north of the main survey area in 2006. The area covered by LC material is also larger than the 2ha originally suggested by the SCSP survey, with artefacts having been found over an estimated area of at least 10ha. Interestingly, rather than a planned architectural complex, the results of the geophysics survey show that the architectural remains appear to be sporadic over the site.

"Dear children! Today I am calling you all to
prayer. Without prayer, dear children, you are not able to
experience either God, or me or the graces which I am giving you.
Therefore, my call to you is that the beginning and end of your
day always be prayer. Dear children, I wish to lead you daily
more and more in prayer, but you are not able to grow because you
do not desire it. My call, dear children, is that for you prayer
be in the first place. Thank you for having responded to my
call." BVM, July 3, 1986, Medjugorge

We are now accepting Aetna insurance. Ha.Le' is your home for integrative healthcare. Integrative health is based on evidence, based on science, based on you.
We are living through times of tremendous change. Please give yourself some grace. As we continue to adjust and adapt, give yourself permission to dance.
Ha.Le' means home in Hawaiian. Ha.Le' Counselor Kim Rate speaks a little about what home means to her and offers a question for reflection.
In this time of distressing change, allow yourself to soften. Gift yourself with room to grieve, allowing your heart to feel all its tenderness. It helps.
As the shape of our lives changes and we social distance in the face of the pandemic, it brings up a lot of feelings. The root of these feelings is grief, and naming it can help us manage it.
Anxiety in teens is rising, and counseling that focuses on teens and their needs is effective treatment. According to the National Institutes of Health, almost 1 in 3 adolescents ages 13-18 will experience an anxiety disorder.
Teens and young adults are under more stress now than young people of earlier generations. Counseling can help build resilience and healthy ways to cope, supporting young people as they discover who they are and how they can do well in the world.
According to Dr. Mario Martinez and Biocognition, we can be wounded in three ways: Shame, Abandonment, and Betrayal. Each culture will shame, abandon, or betray you in a different way, but those are the 3 wounds.
Here's what happens in the process that I call Becomingness. There are three things that we put out there that we misunderstand and think that they are being given to us rather than we are projecting them out: Joy, Belonging, and Companionship.
Biocognitive science is based on research that demonstrates how thoughts and their biological expression co-emerge within a cultural history. Individuals are seen as an inseparable bioinformational field of mind, body, and cultural history in constant search for contextual meaning.

Look up there, at the photo at the top of this post. No, really look. What's that? You feel nauseous? Don't whine to me about it: tell Pentax (and stay away from Japan).
The multi-colored monstrosity that just burned itself into your poor retinas is a special-edition Pentax K-x, available online only from Tower Records Japan. Thankfully, there will only be 1,000 made and sold for ¥74,800 ($800), or $150 more than the almost as hideous bright-red version. You even get a custom-designed, vomit-inducing rainbow image on the LCD when you start up, encouraging you never to power the camera up (and extending battery life to infinity).
The 12.9MP, 720p-shooting DSLR is, apart from the Fisher Price colors, identical to the standard K-x, with its auto HDR and face detection functions. But that's not what this is about. The rainbow scheme ties in with a summer campaign from Tower Records, and you should be able to find matching sunglasses, t-shirts and bags. Here's a snippet from Google Translate for you to snicker at:
This year's theme is also a handy compact body but a woman a "rainbow" color scheme is a drop-supplied, POP achieved in CUTE and form.
A drop-supplied woman? What?

The Canon 700D, aka Rebel T5i in the United States, has been officially announced as the flagship DSLR camera of the EOS Rebel lineup.
The Canon EOS 650D, referred to as Rebel T4i in the US, was revealed in June 2012. However, the Japan-based manufacturer has decided to replace it less than a year after it has been introduced on the market.
Canon 700D / Rebel T5i announced with 3-inch articulated touchscreen
Canon's successor for the EOS 650D / Rebel T4i is called EOS 700D / Rebel T5i and is based on a very similar specifications sheet, but with a new 18-55mm STM lens.
The flagship camera of the EOS Rebel series features an 18-megapixel APS-C CMOS image sensor, DIGIC 5 image processor, ISO range between 100 and 12,800 (which can be expanded up to 25,600 using the in-camera settings), 3-inch vari-angle ClearView II LCD touchscreen, and a continuous shooting mode up to five frames per second.
The Canon 700D / Rebel T5i also employs a Hybrid CMOS AF system, which can provide faster autofocus when using the device's live view mode. Additionally, users will have access to a 9-point cross-type AF system, which should make their job easier in all photographing conditions.
New EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens available for the users
The Japanese manufacturer says that customers will have the option to bundle the camera with the new EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens. Canon's new optic is based on the Stepping Motor system, meaning that focusing will be very fluent and silent.
The EOS 650D has been the first DSLR camera with a touchscreen ever. The EOS 700D also sports a capacitive touchscreen, which provides quick controls to the most important camera settings.
Rebel T5i's touch-based display can be used for previewing photo effects, such as Soft Focus, Toy Camera, Fisheye, and Water Painting among others.
Movie mode available with full HD video and stereo sound recording
Moreover, the new DSLR camera is capable of recording 1920 x 1080p movies. In video mode, photographers can use the continuous AF tracking mode, a very useful technique when shooting active subjects.
Sound quality will be among the highest, thanks to EOS 700D's integrated stereo microphone.
Other common camera features can be found in the Rebel T5i, too. The list includes RAW shooting, face detection, built-in flash, hot shoe for mounting extra accessories, red-eye correction, and multiple metering modes.
The camera also comes packed with an optical viewfinder, a shutter speed range between 30 and 1/4000 seconds, USB 2.0 and HDMI mini ports, LP-E8 battery, SD / SDHC / SDXC card slot, and optional GPS and WiFi (through Eye-Fi cards) connectivity.
EOS 700D / Rebel T5i price details and availability information
The Canon 700D / Rebel T5i release date is April 2013 for a price of $749.99. The complete kit with lens will be priced at $899.99 and will become available by the end of next month. The camera will be introduced in the rest of the world in late April.

Almost every time my husband and I travel to New England in the autumn I'm asked Are you going to leaf peep?
I ask them back Why would I go to New England to leaf peep? I live in the Ligonier Valley, in Pennsylvania, at the northern end of the Appalachian mountains, which is one of the best leaf-peeping regions in the country.
(Photo taken in Boston in autumn, 2013)
This is not to say that, when traveling home from New England, I don't enjoy following the north-to-south progression of autumn's brilliant foliage. I can simulate the leaf-change progression locally by traveling into the Ligonier Valley from atop Laurel Mountain, close to 3,000 foot elevation. Truly, I agree with George Eliot who wrote Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns, and Albert Camu, who wrote Autumn is a second spring when every leaf's a flower.
Accordingly, autumn is the time at the green-theme Autumn Leaf Masquerade Ball, when deciduous tree leaves gradually remove their masks and show their true colors. Their mask is created by a green pigment, chlorophyll—a biomolecule essential for converting sunlight into energy during a process known as photosynthesis. Once this green mask is shed the true colors that have remained hidden, yellow and orange (called carotenoids), amaze all whose eyes view them.
Red and purple pigments (anthocyanins) are also buried under the green mask. These colors are revealed only when the sugar in leaves breaks down in late summer. The more prevalent the anthocyanins the more fiery the leaves will be…think red maples, red oaks, dogwood and sweet gum trees.
As autumn leaves unmask
A population of thousands
Caps their host trees in (more…)
