Hold Qi up Ljungby [2005-10-01]
To the weekend-course in Ljungby participants came because they had heard about other peoples good result. The beginners learned the movements fast with some help from the older students and we practiced a lot. Many participants told about their good results, that Zhineng Qigong makes them happier and that they notice a big difference on their life-quality if they don't practice.
From the participants results:"Qigong has helped me with many things. For example; my tinnitus has disappeared. Another concrete result was when I made a breast-operation. Two weeks later I could move my arms without problems. Some people never get the flexibility back after that kind of operation."
"This was my third course. I feel much better today and I'm calmer."
" If I don't practice I notice a big difference. For example it's more difficult to get up in the morning."
"Since I started to practice I don't get angry anymore. Qigong makes me happy."
"The first course was hard but now I like the training very much. I feel good. I'm happy and positive."
"Yesterday I found myself trying to raise the head up to keep the body upright just as we had learned in the course."

Ropemaker place, a twenty-one story building within walking distance of Moorgate station, has been purchased by a subsidiary of Singaporean-listed company, Ho Bee Land, in a mammoth £650m purchase.
The building, which houses investment banks such as Liberum and Macquarie Group, has been sold in a joint venture comprising a European and two Asian investors through global asset manager AXA Investment Managers.
The sale of the 620,000 square feet investment comes as a strong sign of confidence in the long-term prospects of the British economy. It follows the sale of the UBS headquarters last week, which were purchased by a Hong Kong property for £1bn.
It is the latest sign of international confidence in the Asian market. Ho Bee Land Chairman and Chief Executive, Chua Thian Poh said that
Despite Brexit, London has proved resilient and maintained its position as the world's top financial city ahead of New York. We remain confident of the long-term prospects of London."
Mr Poh subsequently went on to discuss how Brexit was providing opportunities for international investors to look more closely at the British economy saying that:
The Brexit uncertainty has, in fact, provided us with the opportunity to suss out excellent investment opportunities like Ropemaker Place.
The head of UK transactions at AXA Investment Management, Huw Stephens, has echoed this sentiment and has stressed that the City of London, as one of the leading global centres for international business and one of the world's most transparent and liquid real estate markets. He stressed that into the future, London will remain a key target market and one where AXA IM will continue to look for further opportunities.

Notepad - Seeing Double
Hey Everyone! When I am working on an email I like to paste snippets of code in Notepad, therefore I had multiple versions of it pinned to my taskbar on my PC. I would just click on one and open them as I needed them. However, I had to get a new PC (my other one died a noble death - lol) and I can't find the same instructions on how to have multiple versions of the same application pinned on the taskbar. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks so much! VW

Continuous Ice Cover Injury
The first type of ice injury is the direct result of a continuous ice cover often referred to as freeze smothering. In the early to mid 1960's Jim Beard conducted controlled laboratory study where he looked at the survival rate of three cool season turfgrasses under a continuous ice cover and two turfgrasses under field conditions (1,2). He found that creeping bentgrass could survive 120 days of continuous ice cover, however annual bluegrass (Poa annua) loss occurred after 60 days with substantial loss around 75 days. In a more recent Canadian field study annual bluegrass and creeping bentgrass turf was subjected to 45 days of continuous ice cover and then the ice was removed. Seventy-five days after initiating the study and 30 days after removing the ice cover creeping bentgrass still maintained its cold hardiness, while annual bluegrass was dead (3). It would appear from this study that annual bluegrass under a continuous ice cover needs to be removed prior to 45 days.
The reasons commonly proposed for ice injury are the buildup of toxic gases and/or the development of anoxic conditions, and the loss of cold hardiness. It appears that carbon dioxide (CO2) accumulation under ice cover is a major contributor to the death of herbaceous plants (4). Intermittent thawing helped eliminate the CO2 buildup and injury to the plants in this study did not occur (4). ,p> The loss of cold hardiness under ice cover occurs and varies among turfgrass species. Under continuous ice cover annual bluegrass loses its cold hardiness, while creeping bentgrass is not affected (3). The loss of cold hardiness in annual bluegrass is likely due to the anoxia (lack of oxygen) conditions that develop under an ice cover (3).
Ice Formation in Association with Freeze Injury
In areas where continuous ice cover for over 45 days is unlikely due to winter weather patterns being broken due to intermittent periods of thawing, ice formation can play a role in freeze injury. Under this scenario a rapid drop in temperature resulting in freezing water around the growing point during late winter or early spring can cause freeze injury primarily to Poa annua.
What cultural practices can be instituted to minimize ice injury and/or freeze injury? A thorough discussion is found in the 2004 November/December issue of the USGA Green Section Record in an article entitled "Winter Damage" by Keith Happ. Some of the key points are:
1) Produce a healthy plant going into the winter. A weak Poa annua plant with low carbohydrate storage is not going to tolerate ice cover or be resistant to freeze injury as a healthy plant. Shaded areas are more prone to freeze injury than sunny areas, probably due to the carbohydrate status of Poa annua (7).
2) Eliminate poorly drained areas. Poa annua growing in areas where water accumulates is at high risk to rapid freezing during freeze/thaw cycles.
In conclusion, winter injury is normally a combination of several factors one of which is ice cover. A continuous ice cover can cause injury on Poa annua after 45 days. The formation of ice during freeze/thaw cycles in late winter can create a situation where excessive water in and around Poa annua crowns can create freeze injury from ice formed by a rapid drop in temperature.

Speaking of State of Michigan, people will think of Detroit, and then unsafety of it and then bankruptcy of it. In fact, Detroit is just one city of Michigan and it's safe outside of it. And there are many great places to live outside of Detroit area. Take another look at the map again. Michigan is a state with great blessings. Michigan has the most of fresh water. It situates in the region where the world's largest fresh water lakes are. Michigan is divided into the upper peninsula and the lower peninsula. Between these two parts, it's where Lake of Michigan and Lake of Huron meet. The north of the upper peninsula is the world's largest fresh water lake, Superior Lake. Michigan is in the arms of Lake Michigan and Lake Huron with Lake Michigan in the west and Lake Huron in the east. Lake Erie, which is also one of the five great lakes, is in the south east of Michigan. There is a small lake, St. Clair Lake, in the north of Lake Erie. Detroit River flows from St. Clair Lake to Lake Erie. It's only 27 miles long. Detroit City is located about half way of Detroit River. Detroit, means strait.Three hundred years ago, this place is full of thick forests. On it, lived about 15000 native America. French people first came here to expand the new world. In 1701, a person whose name is Antoine de le Mothe Cadillac established Detroit residence. Not only a trade center was build, French also took over the whole Great Lake area. It was until after 100 years that Detroit really started to develop to become a city. In 1815, Detroit became a city. By 1860s, there were already different industries in Detroit, copper smeltery, wood mill, machine manufactory. It was also at this time, Detroit River water pollution was first reported. The main problems were lack of sanitation, public water pollution and water born diseases. Following that, Detroit installed sewage system and built water treatment plant. However, the public was still indifferent to industrial pollution. It was until after World War II that the public, the government and the state started to pay attention to the pollution of Detroit River. Scientific research of Detroit River started 1910s. Due to the annual epidemic typhoid fever and gastrointestinal diseases, residents and scientists began to question the water quality. At that time, all the wastes were dumped into the water system untreated. Everyone thought that water was a limitless commodity and human's activities on it could be ignored.Pollution of Detroit River came from two resources: waste water and industrial waste. Waste water is mainly related to human's activity. The industrial waste was related to the prosperity of the industrial development in Detroit at the end of 19th century and beginning of 20th century. Many industries in the past and at present are related to automobiles. The 80 years old community college professor, Dolores Leonard, said that she grew up in a haze of "red sky". When she was a child, she would ask, "If the air would pit the paint, what would it do to us?"Delray is a community at the south edge of Detroit City. There are one great oil refinery, Detroit water treatment plant, steel mills, coal power plant and salt mine. This is the most polluted place in Michigan. The prevalence of asthma and cardiovascular disease is very high. Coal dust, particles and other pollution effect the children's health. It's recommended not to walk for long. There were 23000 residents 80 years ago and now it's under 3000. People left and moved to other places.At the end of 19 century, Detroit River was where the ships were built the most. During World War II, like other big cities, Detroit started to make weapons. The oil pollution still exists today. One gallon of oil can pollutes one million gallon of water. From 1940s to 1960s, the Detroit River experienced massive winter duck kills due to oil pollution in the 1940s-1960s when tens of thousands of waterfowl would die in a season. "In fact, from 1946-1948, the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare estimated that 5.9 million gallons of oil and other petroleum products were released annually into the Detroit River. That means there was enough oil being discharged into the Detroit River each year between 1946-1948 to pollute virtually the entire western basin of Lake Erie, including all Michigan, Ohio, and Ontario waters."In 1960s, Detroit River was considered one of the most polluted rivers in US. In 1965, because the massive, phosphorous induced algal blooms depleted oxygen, which resulted in killing fish, the Lake Erie where the Detroit River flows into was declared "Dead" by the Time Magazine. Bulldozers was used to clean up the decomposed algae and dead fish on the lake shore. In 1970s, because of the Mercury crisis, all the fisheries around St. Clair River, Lake St. Clair, Detroit River and Lake Erie was closed. The ecosystem around these places was polluted because of the mercury release from the chemical companies. "These long-standing pollution problems in the Detroit River and the resultant public outcry over them catalyzed many pollution prevention and control efforts (including the establishment of the 1972 Clean Water Act, the 1972 Canada-United States Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement, and the 1973 Endangered Species Act), as well as many governmental, university, and nongovernmental monitoring programs.Collectively, these monitoring programs have documented substantial improvements since the 1960s, including:· over 97% reduction in oil releases;· 90% decrease in phosphorus discharges;· 4,600 tons/day decrease in chloride discharges;· upgrading of all municipal waste water treatment plants from primary to secondary treatment with phosphorus removal;· 80% reduction in untreated waste from combined sewer overflow discharges;· 85% reduction in mercury in fish;· 90% reduction in PCBs in herring gull eggs; and· remediation of one million cubic yards of contaminated sediment."It's amazing to see the recovery of the ecosystem. The quantity of many species began to increase and they include bald eagles, peregrine falcons, osprey, lake sturgeon, lake whitefish, walleye, and even beaver. In the past 25 years, due to the pollution of pesticide, bald eagles could not product young. In 1950s, also because of pesticide pollution, peregrine falcons were decimated. By the end of 2014, 22 active bald eagle nests were found. From 1987, peregrine falcons were reintroduced and since then, every year there have been ten or young are born. The situations are similar for other species. We could tell that the environmental pollution has shocking effects to the species. The recovery is positive, however the monitoring projects also recorded many environmental and natural resource challenges, including population growth, transportation expansion, the land use changes, non-point source pollution, toxic material pollution, habitat loss and degradation, exotic species introduction and global warming. There are still too many challenges. It's easy to drop and break a cup and it's too difficult to restore the cup. So is the environment. Blind exploration, usage and pollution break the balance of the ecosystem, harm health of the people, result in destruction of the natural resources, lead to extinction of some of the species and also endless time is needed to restore or to make up the environment. The environmental pollution and recovery of the Detroit River is a typical example in US. Detroit was once one of the big four cities in US. America has rich natural resources, short history, relatively less people, so it seems that the environment can tolerate more. However, we should realize that the environmental system is weak when facing the greedy exploration of human beings. In many aspects, things are not reversible. There are still many rivers where people are told not to get in. Pollution still exist massively. The contradiction between economic development and environmental resources will exist from the beginning to the end. The profit pursuing organizations are still staring at some developable areas and the environmental protection people are still making every efforts to protect. Who could tell the future?As written by Cadillac, Detroit was like this before the industrial revolution:"This river is scattered over, from one lake to another both on the mainland and the islands On the banks and round about the clusters of timber, surrounded by charming meadows there is an infinite number of fruit trees, chiefly plums and apples. They are so well laid out that they might be taken for orchards planted by the hand of a gardener.". Game is very common, as are geese, and all kinds of wild ducks. There are swans everywhere, there are quails, woodcocks, pheasants and rabbits, turkeys, partridges, hazelhens and a stupendous amount of turtledoves. This country is so temperate, so fertile and so beautiful that it may justly be called 'The Earthly Paradise of North America.'"01/14/2016,3:09pmSouthfield, Mi, USA

I have no clean clothes. I mean, I have some, but most of them are dirty.
Or in Colorado.
I've basically been living out of a suitcase for the last 3 weeks, since taking that roadtrip south with a car full of my belongings. Most of my belongings stayed in the car, and are currently parked outside my friend Amie's house, just waiting for me to return and claim them. How I'm sure my belongings miss me… So only the few, the proud (the marines) were left for me to live with for a month. And let me tell you, this last week did not have space for me to breathe, much less do laundry.
So I flew to California with a suitcase AND a guitar case packed with dirty clothes.
YES. I packed my guitar case full of clothes. Why? Well, primarily to pad my guitar. It's a soft case, and I thought that little extra cushion would keep the guitar from banging back and forth inside the case and give it a firmer fit. And secondly, it allowed me extra space in my suitcase for all the crap I have with me.
For instance:
A credit card swiper.
A ceramic coffee mug.
Collected mail from the last few weeks.
Not the kind of stuff I'd typically pack in a suitcase when going on a trip. What we've got here is what you'd call a special circumstance, people, and I'm making do just the best I can.
But to my point? I put on my jeans this morning, which incidentally I had just washed because I'd planned to wear them at my concert and then didn't so I thought they were clean, but they smelled…….. OFF.
So I took them off.
And promptly worked on two loads of laundry today.
Which means that my opening statement is now actually false, as my actions today have thus altered my current clothing state from dirty to mostly clean. (The second load is still in the washer…)

Welcome to Zoology Notes:
While I live in England, I am currently on holiday in the South of France (Midi pyrenees) where I have been able to find, observe and photograph an awesome variety of animals. Which incidentally is what sparked the idea of this blog. I have been here since the 1st of August and return on the 15th. Therefore, my first few posts will be records of the animals that I have seen, tips and tricks that have helped me find them and profiles on those that I have found to be particularly interesting. When I am back in England I'll mainly focus on the wildlife of Britain, but not exclusively, until then I hope you all enjoy the wildlife of France (some of which can also be found in the UK).

Who Is Running That Horrible Hibernate Query? Find Out With Comments
The Dreaded Search Function
I've worked at several jobs where the users have asked for a general-purpose search function in their application. It's the sort of thing where people want the ability to search on, e.g., all customers with a last name that starts with SM, or all of the customers with a balance greater than 1000.00, etc.
If you can resist the request to build such a thing, then by all means, don't implement it. End-users have a knack for creating queries which will bring your database to its knees, no matter how clever you think you are with indexing or UI design.
If you must do it, you'll want to keep a close eye on how its used from the outset for when the inevitable nightmare query is run. One way to do this is by using Hibernate's comments feature.
Use Comments to Hunt them Down
My colleague Matt Brock implemented something like this where we work. Suppose you have a general method for creating an HQL query in a DAO class, the method could look like this:
1 2 3
Next, make sure Hibernate's SQL logging and comment logging is enabled in your hibernate.hbm.xml (warning – this log can get pretty huge):
true true . . .
Your log will now contain the users who are executing each query, like this:
1 2
One caveat: this may not work with stored procedures – SQL Server, in particular, will get nasty if you try to execute a stored procedure with Hibernate comments attached to it.
Happy Hibernating!

Martha Loveless of Loveless Real Estate Services
The Best Carmichael Realtor | HomeSmart ICARE Realty 916-.270.7081
Homes for Sale in Carmichael / What's Your Carmichael Home Worth?
Hey everyone, Martha here again with another video on how to help you sell your home yourself.
My next tip, marketing your home to sell. Gone are the days of paying for a newspaper ad, it's 2018 and pretty much everyone is on the computer. In fact, 80% of all buyers start their home search online so it's important to understand the internet and the power of marketing.
YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+, Snapchat…these are all great social media platforms to post home and get massive exposure. Other ways to market your home are sending out postcards, just listed flyers, putting up a sign and flyer box in front of your home, Zillow.com, Realtor.com, Craigslist…the list goes on. One of the main things to keep in mind when marketing your home to sell, use great photos and include those home selling points we talked about last week.
As always, if you get through my videos and decide that you just don't have the time or just don't want to be bothered selling your home yourself, give me a call/text and I'll be happy to get your home SOLD. Have a great day!

Threading or depilation with a thread refers to an ancestral method of removing facial hair by the roots with a cotton thread, only entwining it and sliding over the skin.
Indicated to all skin and hair types, this technique offers additional benefits for people who have a more sensitive skin, as it does not cut, burn nor causes allergic reaction. Also, it is less painful and does not create pimples or irritations. Especially advantageous in the area of the eyebrows, by its delineating ability, this technique nevertheless allows its use in various areas of the face. Plus, it retards hair growth and prevents ingrown hair.

–by Quincy Tejani, Music Connoisseur–
Please share. It's good karma 🙂
On this, C Duncan's follow up to his Mercury Prize nominated debut Architect, the Scottish producer continues to develop his skills in creating mesmerizing atmospheres with grandiose synths and haunting vocals. Throughout these 11 tracks Duncan's soundscapes sound as though they have travelled from another dimension in order to touch our undeserving ears. On this LP Duncan simultaneously invokes feelings of warmth and love while also bringing forth a deep seeded sadness within the listener. Although Duncan's lyrical message is sometimes lost beneath layers of heavy synth, for this record it is the overall feeling that is the most important. With his sophomore release, Duncan has solidified himself as one of the important producers making music right now.
Best Track: Other Side
Quincy Tejani is the co-founder of The Violet Wave and is also editor of music. When he's not listening to or writing about music you can probably find him walking through the forests of Ontario or questioning the inner workings of the universe. He also never turns down a cold Pabst… never.

Tobago Love6/20/2005 01:23:00 PM Edit This 0 Comments »
God I miss Tobago. I've only been to the sister island (Trinidad and TOBAGO) once in my lifetime but I had some of my best memories there. How I yearn to go back. I'm supposed to go in August and I have a ticket in my wallet right now, so I can go anytime I want.
I had gone when I was around 16. I'm not too sure but I think it was then. We, my cousin C and my aunt had gone for 10 days. We stayed in this isolated guest house in Speyside for $50TT a night. The view from there was breathtaking. It was easily quiet and easily one of the most peaceful places I had ever been to. At Night It was even more beautiful.
What amazed me the most though was the fact that you could walk around at any time of night without the slightest amount of fear. It was like a small utopia. It just felt perfect. Like everything was the way it should be.
That night, my cousin and I had walked down to the jetty (dock) that was at the most prominent beach where we were staying. C had a huge crush on this Trinidadian boy named Keston who we had met while swimming with Manta Ray's at a private beach in the same area. We had only found that place because we had befriended some of the locals. He told her that he would be there that night so I was dragged along as a reason for their teenaged rendezvous. (Nevermind I was a teenager myself). When we got there, there was apparently a bit of a "spin the bottle" gathering that had accumulated. Who knew that was the hot spot for adolescent romance. I wasn't into that though (even though I was kind of into Keston myself) but I was the chubby chick and didn't want to deal with the embarrassment of being rejected. So I walked along the jetty alone, while C struck up a conversation with her Island Romeo. The stars seemed to be ten times bigger than they were back in Trinidad and I remember thinking that Trinidad got the short end of the stick when it comes to this kind of beauty. The beach had a darkly ethereal aura to it that was so compelling I wanted to dive in clothes and all. I stayed there alone for almost an hour. For the first time I felt like I was part of perfection.

"The Thaw" is the 39th episode of Star Trek: Voyager, the 23rd episode of the second season. The crew discovers aliens who are mentally connected to a computer.
Voyager discovers a planet that was the site of a recent major ecological disaster. The crew finds a set of stasis pods containing five of the aliens; two are dead from heart attacks, and of the other three, they should have been released four years ago from stasis. As the planet has recovered from the disaster, Captain Kathryn Janeway decides to release the other three, but the crew find it impossible to wake them, their brains tied to a central computer connecting all the pods. B'Elanna Torres and Harry Kim volunteer to occupy the other pods and be connected to the central computer.
They find themselves experiencing a virtual reality, a strange, dark circus-like atmosphere. A clown appears to lead the group of computer-generated characters, attempting to bring the new arrivals to play. When they refuse, the clown drags Kim to a guillotine and prepares to sever his head, but the three aliens soon appear, warning the clown that should they kill Kim, his crew mates will likely shut down the program. The clown agrees, and lets Kim go. On talking to the aliens, Torres and Kim learn that the virtual reality the computer is generating is pulling from their fears, is able to read their thoughts, and is able to induce death of the living person. Torres is able to make a deal with the clown to return out of stasis to explain the situation to Voyager, leaving Kim and the three aliens behind as hostages.
The clown, while waiting, starts to torture Kim by playing on his fear of hospitals. At one point, Kim is placed on a gurney with the clown about to slice him with a scalpel when his hand is stopped by The Doctor. The clown is bemused by the Doctor, as he cannot read his mind. The Doctor explains that Janeway has offered to provide the clown a simulated brain in exchange for Kim and the aliens. However, the clown reads the minds of his captives, who are aware that the simulated brain will not be the same as a real one, and the clown refuses. Before the Doctor returns to report to Janeway, one of the aliens provides a subtle hint of how to dismantle the computer system.
With this information, Torres begins to dismantle the simulation, the Doctor returning to keep the clown distracted. The clown discovers the deception as elements of his program are removed, and he kills the alien that gave the Doctor the hint. Janeway stops Torres before the clown takes another life. The Doctor, after communicating with the crew, informs the clown that Janeway will offer herself as a brain for the system in exchange for the remaining hostages or else she will shut down the computerized central computer stasis pod system in 1 minute even if it risks killing the hostages to stop the clown's games. The clown agrees, and soon Janeway appears in the simulation while the remaining hostages are freed. Too late, the clown realizes that Janeway too is a hologram, her mind only minimally connected to the system but not fully connected. With no living being left connected, the crew finish disabling the computer, leaving the clown frightful of the darkness as it engulfs him and the simulation of Janeway. The clown then disappears from existence.

Hairstyles for a Bad Hair Day
Hopefully this article is being read in a preventative manner, but every lady knows eventually you will have a bad hair day. Maybe your hair is in that funky grow out stage between short and mid-length, you have too many grays, greasy hair, a naturalista with crunchy frizzy curls, or a relaxed lady with too much new growth, or a combination of several-- the point is your hair is NOT the business! Well, Gathered Lady Bree to the rescue!
This past friday, I was in hair hell myself. My curls were wack (dry, undefined in the front, mashed flat in the back, dull, and insanely frizzy and super big). I had almost no time to get out of the house and a wash and go wasn't a viable option! Here's my favorite style saves for bad hair days!
Hair Problem: "My Hair is SHOULD NOT be seen by human eyes"
Solutions: Hair Turban, Wigs
Hair Problem: "My roots look horrible". "My Hair is too greasy". "I have too many grays".
Solutions: - French Braid - High Bun with decoraitve head band - Thin Scarf/Hair Tie - Deep Side Part ponytail
Hair Problem: "My ends are frayed and damaged." "My Hair is overprocessed and dry" "I am a transitioning natural and I have two textures". "My roots are puffy but the rest of my hair is straight"
Solutions: - French Braid/Twisted Hairline with Bun in back - Humped hair in front with french braid or bun in back -50's pin-up bangs with bun in back
Have you rocked one of these fab styles or have other Bad Hair Day styles that rescue your look? Share your pics with us and if we like it, we'll share it. You can email us at email@example.com or find us on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter @TheGatheredLady !

Week Two
This week was our second week at work and it has been quite frustrating with a lack of power which has slowed down the work we had planned as it has meant that there is less production of food and no internet for our research based activities. Despite this, we have managed to get on with a few tasks that require no power.
As part of the ICS scheme each week we have a discussion topic between all the volunteers on each project to. This week we discussed the different learning styles and the similarities between the different schooling systems here and in the UK. On Thursday Ria and I lead our second reflection topic on discrimination. We had a really interesting discussion around what we thought were the biggest issues of discrimination in each of our countries and why. These discussions have been a great way of getting to know the culture and values of both countries.
|Two members of team Djigui
|Some of the ICS volunteers at Djigui
Twice a week we have a language exchange where we pair up with one of the national volunteers to help our French, but also as a cultural exchange. On Thursday, it was interesting finding out about the education and health system in Burkina whilst practising my French, which I hope is improving! It also made us really appreciate the NHS as we were told that you will not be treated, if you cannot pay, even in an emergency.
Dave has started teaching his English lessons this week with some of the women at Djigui which he really enjoyed. We have also started updating the old profiles of the children in the sponsorship programme to ensure that they are up to date. Ria and I enjoyed creating and cooking our first dish of the week, 'Tandoori Tokan' .This is to help create a diverse range of dishes to sell at the Kiosk, using the ingredients that they produce here. So this week's dish used Djigui's tokan and soya yoghurt which we hope will attract more customers who want to try something different to the rice and sauce that most kiosks sell here. I enjoyed helping out in the kiosk in the mornings and cooking the traditional Burkinabe dish called 'Riz sauce Arachide' which is rice with a peanut sauce (and Tokan),
|Ria helping out in the kitchen with the Plat de la semaine
Yesterday Dave and I helped in the production room when the power was back on, which involved helping to produce the sweetened soya milk and bottle it ready to sell tomorrow. It's very hot working in the room with boiling hot milk, so we have a lot of respect for the women who do that most days!
|Tandoori Tokan
When we have had access to power and internet we have continued to update the social media to ensure the ongoing promotion of Djigui and the rights of disabled women in Burkina. To encourage more customers to find out where we are, we have produced a short film of how to get to Djigui from the main road ,as a lack of directions seems to be one of the obstacles in attracting customers. We hope to post this onto social media to help promote the Kiosk here.
|ICS volunteers waiting at the Kiosk at Djigui!
Mariam has also come up with a plan to market Djigui's project in a better way, such as organizing the orders in a more efficient way and creating a a magazine of recipes to show potential clients how to use tokan. We have also updated the old leaflet, in French and English, to distribute around Ougadougou to advertise the kiosk. William and Dave have followed up a meeting with Savannah FM, a local radio station, who are willing to advertise Djigui next week with the hope of raising awareness of the values of Djigui, as well as attracting new clients.
Friday was a day of national mourning in Burkina due to the plane crash of the flight from Ougadougou to Algeria last week. In addition, there was a sudden death in the family of a member of staff at International Service and so out of respect we were not in work on Friday. Our thoughts are with all those affected.
Thanks for keeping in touch with Djigui,

I have written three or four beginnings to this post and deleted them.
I do not have my creative flow. My blogging mojo is absent.
I shall put a brave face on it, though and bravely push on with a bullet pointy type post that requires very little of my brain to be functional.
To make it interesting, let us divide the bullet points into two categories. "Awesome things that are great and happy and light up my life or are just funny" and "Whingey things that I could spare you but will not because I am selfish like that"
Awesome things that are great and happy and light up my life or are just funny:
- Grub has decided to cut me some small slack. She has cut down her overnight breastfeeding to between 0 and 3 feeds overnight – yes you read that correctly, she had her first ever night without a feed during the night – and she has agreed to sometimes sleep for several hours in her own bed. I will admit that this is a very new trend – she has only done it twice – but I declare it to be the new norm. I will shortly be the proud owner of one of those modern, new-fangled sleeping-through-the-night-and-putting-themselves-to-sleep children I have heard about. I can feel it in my waters.
- Spring has sprung. There is sunshine, there are butterflies, there are flowers (unfortunately with sniffle-making pollen to make my eyes water but let us not dwell on that). I feel as though a great grey shroud has been lifted from my person. Sunshine makes me happy.
- Beefcake has been working very hard this month, doing a bunch of very long days in order to haul some projects at work towards their deadlines. This may sound like it is not such an awesome thing but what it does mean is that the slight overspend that we had with the original kitchen renovation, which has been hanging over each month and making me feel stressed and depressed, will be taken care of. We will be back in fine shape. It hasn't really been a big deal but it would be nice to have a month where I do not have to plan our spending down to the very cent. It will be lovely to be able to purchase one or two things I have been putting off for myself because they were not 100% strictly speaking necessary. I feel much relieved.
- The few extra dollars we might have will mean that I can perhaps paint the bathroom or re-tile the shower recess or re-enamel the very old bath. A bath should not have a rough abrasive surface. It will only be a minor bathroom refresh as opposed to a proper bathroom renovation as we will one day demolish this bathroom and it would be wasteful to replace it now but I am sure I can get it looking quite nice. I should show you what it looks like now – remind me to do that.
- Beefcake and I bought a rare and much appreciated coffee to get us through playgroup on Friday morning. In the cafe where we purchased our take-away beverages, there was a family (two older parents and an adult son) eating fish and chips. It was nine thirty in the morning. We thought maybe they were tourists, they had the look of being not quite local about them. We thought perhaps they had just arrived and it was dinner time where they come from, or maybe fish and chips is a breakfast food in their country. I don't know but I thought it was a bit odd. Would you go the deep fried seafood and chips for brekkie?
- It is Poss' birthday in less than two weeks and she has requested a shopping spree to redecorate her room with nice things. New bedding and cushions and such. Beefcake is completely puzzled that someone would want this as a birthday gift but I am excited because it will actually be quite a fun thing to do. She has already chosen a new quilt cover and is planning a colour scheme she wants to work on – cute! I shouldn't say that, she's going to be eleven, that's practically a teenager.
- Also on the topic of Poss' burgeoning adolescence. The other day she was excitedly telling me about a school project when, to my delight, she threw in the tweeny term "totally random". I have been unable to resist taunting her. She hates me. What fun.
Whingey things that I could spare you but will not because I am selfish like that:
- My body is an unpredictable and vile hell-monster with it's own independent and beastly identity. I was feeling fab on Friday and went to the park with the small kids and the friend that used to come to playgroup (you remember) and her two girls. I had a spring in my step. It was great. I felt as though things were on the up and up. As some sort of cosmic punishment for feeling good (yes, I am melodramatic) I dislocated my wrist when I picked Grub up off of the slide. No odd movements or anything. Just picked her up. I couldn't bear to tell my friend. I feel like a hyperchondriac so I grabbed my wrist and we walked home – lucky the park is around two minutes away. My wirst was very swollen and purple that night but is beginning to feel better now. My pelvis has arced up again quite badly. I am on a neverending merry-go-round of crap.
- Beefcake is working insane amounts. It will not stop this week. He will not be being paid extra for anything he does now either and he is mostly picking up the slack for other, slackarse people. Very frustating but at the same time I must remember that he is here, at home with us and we are actually extremely luck – so shut up Ali.
- I have been comfort eating. It is a pain/depression thing. I am usually pretty good but I have dropped the ball with my eating and I feel quite grumpy with myself. It is made worse by the fact that I am still carrying the vast majority of my baby weight from Grub and I can not exercise at all really. I feel really guilty about it and sometimes that seems to actually make it worse. It is a whole self-perpetuating cycle of self-loathing. I need to take control of it but some days having to be really careful about what I eat seems like a step too far. Like it will just be the thing to push me over the edge. I need to get a grip.
- Also, my foot hurts.
There you have it people. You'ree lucky I don't blog more often really, aren't you?

German scientists at the University of Bielefeld and Dresden University of technology have produced neurons from inferior turbinate stem cells [ITSC], a cell type that is typically discarded during sinus surgery, as a potential treatment for Parkinson's disease. After transplanting the ITSCs into an animal model suffering from Parkinson's, the researchers observed full functional restoration and significant behavioral recovery in the subjects without any adverse side effects.

Researchers Utilize Stem Cells to Study Parkinson's Disease
Recently, researchers team from Sanford-Burnham's Del E. Webb Center for Neuroscience, Aging, and Stem Cell Research and MIT's Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research used stem cells from patients with Parkinson's disease to show that a genetic mutation is partly responsible for cell death in the patients' nervous system. This study exhibits a novel ability of stem cells to act as a model through which researchers can better understand diseases and develop better outcomes. Continue reading
Progress in Differentiation Accelerates Stem Cell Treatments for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's
Researchers at Gutenberg University Mainz have found a way to generate human neurons from pericytes, cells found in the central nervous system, through the use of stem cells. The researchers have observed the process of differentiation that stem cells undergo when they become a new type of cell, and have induced stem cells to go through this process.

Researchers at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies have identified a genetic mutation found in Parkinson's patients that may lead to damage to neural stem cells. Damage to these cells not only destroys them, but inhibits the body's ability to create new ones.
Research Advances Stem Cell Treatment of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Disease
A recent study at Lund University in Sweden reveals the discovery of a type of stem cell that has the ability to differentiate into new brain tissue. This discovery introduces the possibility of finding ways to repair damage to the brain as a result of disease or injury. Researchers plan to use this study as a springboard for further studies in stem cell therapies to treat neural degenerative disease such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.

The Deal With Pancakes
A new development in a long-time love affair
Truth be told, we've never met a pancake we didn't like. Even the greasy diner version—plain with a perfect sphere of butter and possibly-made-from-concentrate syrup—holds a certain place out hearts. That being said, the new pancake at Wheelhouse steals the show. Like much of the new brunch menu, it's true comfort food with seasonal influences. The stack comes topped with fall favorites: caramelized apples, raisins, pecans, and cinnamon butter. And you can bet that maple syrup is real.
The Details: Wheelhouse, 1617 Hi Line Drive. Available during Saturday and Sunday brunch, beginning at 11 a.m.

Growing up and living on a farm in rural Virginia has exposed me to a multitude of different animals and breeds both wild and domesticated alike. But there was one animal that seemed to never make it here to the farm. A friend called me up a few years ago and asked if I would like a couple free miniature goats. So I thought, "Why the hell not?" I'm always looking to interact with new animals. One day never had goats, next day, BAM! I've got goats.
I've always had an affinity for the "Bill and Ted" movies from the 80's so I decided to name them Bill S. Preston, Esquire, and Ted "Theodore" Logan. Together they were "Wyld Stallyns". I did my basic research on their care (which you should always do before taking on a new animal) and then learned their nature and character on the fly. There are some breeds of goats that can reach 340lbs or more but Bill and Ted were miniatures. These are also referred to as pygmy, Nigerian Dwarfs, or dwarf and were about the height and weight of a medium sized dog. I learned quite a bit from my time with the miniatures and I'm happy to share it with you.
I'd recommend buying a miniature goat for a number of reasons. They don't eat much (in comparison to a large goat) and they don't need a high fence or enclosure. The females (does) are very gentle and docile as are the neutered males. The only real issue would be from a male (buck) that has horns. However, you can cut the horns off (debud) the males if you feel this could be an issue. I never had any problems with the Wyld Stallyns charging me because they recognize the size difference and because they were used to being around people. They're social animals by nature. Like all animals, the more appropriate human interaction they have the better mannered they will be. Bill and Ted really liked flowering vines but would also gobble up weeds and even dead leaves. There has been a movement in which more people are buying and using goats as an organic way to essentially clean up their back yard or any wooded area with heavy vegetation. My friend whom I got my goats from was extremely allergic to poison oak and the backyard at his new home was overrun with it. He turned Bill and Ted loose and within a couple months the poison oak was completely gone along with 90% of the other weeds, vines, brush, and thick vegetation. Don't want to spray chemicals on your yard or property? Just turn a few goats loose and allow them to do what they do best.
You don't have to live on a farm to have a pet goat. Most cities and urban areas in the U.S. allow goats and they're easily kept in a small fenced in yard. However, you should still check with local laws before taking a step towards obtaining one. Miniatures can be house trained and will sleep on a dog bed. Bill and Ted slept side by side in a dog house in their pen at night.
The Wyld Stallyns were hearty animals and required little maintenance. They were fenced in at night to keep predators out, but I would let them loose during the day to roam around the yard and farm. They're smart animals so training them not to wander far from the house was fairly easy. In the evenings they would follow their ritual and walk back into the fenced area on their own. They do need shelter from bad weather. My goats did fine with a couple large dog houses. Salt and mineral blocks set out in the pen is recommended and they will lick them as needed. Of course they'll need fresh water and at least a little pasture/yard to graze. Vaccinations at birth are appropriate and you'll need to keep some wormer around for parasites. They love to climb so don't be surprised if you see them on your porch, car, or even on tree limbs. When Bill and Ted weren't coaxing me to scratch their backs and give them treats, I got entertainment from just watching them climb, jump, run, and chase each other around in the yard.
Miniatures are not big or intimidating and their gentle nature makes them more attractive to children. They're great for FFA and 4-H projects and they give kids an opportunity to not only learn about managing animals, but also about responsibility in general. The goats can live anywhere between 10-18yrs of age so kids can get the benefits of raising an animal for years to come. The gestation period is 150-155 days. If your doe is pregnant, expect at least one little one but possibly as many as three. After a few minutes they're standing and after a couple hours, they're running around without problem. Not only can your kids learn about birth and the life cycle from goats, but they're a great way to teach them about sustainable living. One female goat can provide up to three quarts of high protein milk per day. She can do this up to 10 months after giving birth. They're docile enough that small children can milk them and not only is the milk healthy, but it can also be used to make homemade ice cream, cheese, and even soap. Want to teach your child about responsibility, animal management, and self-sustainable lifestyle while also providing a furry friend? Get them a miniature goat.
There are plenty of reasons to have miniature goats around. They can teach your kids about sustainability, responsibility, and appropriate animal care. Keep them around to harvest milk or even put them to work cleaning up brush. So go on out and get a couple. I promise you'll have fun. Just make sure you give them cool names.

By Abby Smith
The EPA's inspector general has launched an audit into Administrator Scott Pruitt's "frequent travel" to his home state of Oklahoma following questions from former agency officials and others about how often he flies to and from the state at taxpayer expense.
The inspector general's office said it "plans to begin preliminary research" into how much has been spent on Pruitt's travel, including trips to Oklahoma, through July 31, according to an Aug. 28 memo it sent to Environmental Protection Agency acting chief financial officer David Bloom.
The office also wants to determine whether Pruitt and other staffers who traveled with him followed EPA travel policies and whether those policies "are sufficiently designed" to prevent fraud, waste, or abuse. The letter was signed by John Trefry, director of forensic audits for the inspector general's Office of Audit.
The Environmental Integrity Project, a group started by former EPA officials, reported last month that Pruitt traveled to Oklahoma 10 times from March to May, with most of the payments coming from the agency's budget. According to the group, which cited information obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request, Pruitt spent 43 of 92 days in Oklahoma, with airfare costs exceeding $12,000.
In a statement to Bloomberg BNA, EPA spokeswoman Amy Graham said Pruitt "is traveling the country to hear directly from the people impacted by EPA's regulations outside of the Washington bubble. This is nothing more than a distraction from the administrator's significant environmental accomplishments."
And Pruitt told an Oklahoma City TV station in July that the Environmental Integrity Projects's claims were unfounded.
"I think the whole question about travel—you've got to consider the source," Pruitt told the station. "The folks talking about this, one, their facts are wrong and that's not a surprise, but it's an alt-EPA. It's a group of employees that worked for Obama that formed an organization to put out these kinds of things that are not accurate."
In a statement accompanying his group's report, Eric Schaeffer, executive director of the Environmental Integrity Project and a former EPA enforcement chief, said it "seems fair to ask whether all of Administrator Pruitt's trips—and the money they cost taxpayers—are 'essential to performance of the agency.' It is also fair to ask how much additional money is spent to fly his entourage of security guards back and forth to his home state if that is where the Administrator is going to spend half his time."
Reps. Frank Pallone (D-N.J.), the House Energy and Commerce Committee's top Democrat, joined committee members Diana DeGette (D-Colo.) and Paul Tonko (D-N.Y.) in calling last month for an inspector general's investigation. The lawmakers said the public has a "right to know if Administrator Pruitt is inappropriately making taxpayers foot the bill for his trips to Oklahoma."
Critics of Pruitt, who served as Oklahoma's attorney general before joining President Donald Trump's administration, question if he's interested in seeking the state's governorship in 2018, when Gov. Mary Fallin (R) is term-limited, or Sen. James Inhofe's (R-Okla.) seat in 2020 if Inhofe decides to retire.
In an interview with The Oklahoman last month, Pruitt rejected suggestions that he would run for Oklahoma governor in 2018, though he did not specifically address a potential Senate bid. He told the newspaper that he would continue to lead EPA "as long as the Lord calls me to and as long as the president wants me to do it."

In July, FAQ booklet for parents of gay youngsters
For two years, clinical psychologist Deepak Kashyap has counselled anxious and angry parents after their homosexual, bisexual or transgender children came out of the closet.mumbai Updated: May 13, 2012 01:51 IST
For two years, clinical psychologist Deepak Kashyap has counselled anxious and angry parents after their homosexual, bisexual or transgender children came out of the closet.
Prompted by their questions and bewilderment, Kashyap is now developing what is ostensibly the country's first series of educational booklets for parents of lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender (LGBT) children.
"These parents experience a lot of guilt and suffering," said Kashyap. "Some 'blame' themselves; others spend a lot of time and money trying to 'cure' their child."
Through his booklets, Kashyap will seek to spread awareness about everything from the meanings of various types of gender identity to its health hazards and psychological implications.
The booklets, to be printed in English, Hindi, Marathi and Gujarati, by the end of July, will be available at online bookstores such as Queer Ink (queer-ink.com) and NGOs such as The Humsafar Trust.
Based on the response to the first set, Kashyap plans a series of booklets — as part of what he calls The Little Pink Booklet Project — on gay rights, gay marriage etc.
Kashyap believes the booklets will help in cases such as that of Bidhan Baruah, the transgender 21-year-old who had approached the Bombay High Court after his parents opposed his decision to undergo a sex change operation, "Awareness and adequate knowledge could have helped Baruah's parents deal with the issue in a more sensitive manner," Kashyap said.

Hey loves!
You guys are probably wondering where I have been, I just got off of a 10 day straight work stretch and I am going to be back at it for another 9 days after!
Since this is my first day off I decided to try and get back on my posting schedule.
For those who are close with me, know this funny story. My mom is very careless when it comes to her glasses, she sits on them, she throws them around & just completely abuses them.
In April, she broke her sun glasses and asked if she could borrow my $200 pair. I said yes, for one day only, we are now in July & I have yet to get them back. I decided to buy a pair for myself just incase I would need them.
I went on my favourite website, Aliexpress, and I found the cutest pair of sunglasses and they were only $3.50, can you believe that?
I got these rose gold frames and pink lenses, and I also got these black frames and blue lenses, I mean I am not a sunglasses person but these are so cute.

Well it's been a month and it's been an adventure. We went to the Dixie Match Tour, still with Eric's motor, and ran there with no problems. Kieran did have an issue with the balance of the kart with the motor and those tires on that surface. He spun several times and was pretty frustrated. I tried to balance it with the weight we have, but I didn't have all of the scales and apparently didn't do well enough.
The drive to Dixie was interesting since I decided to go the back roads and visit our old stomping grounds in Gray and Macon. We made good time and saw our first house, got lunch and made it to the site with time to offload the karts, go though Tech, and walk the course a couple of good times before heading to the hotel and then to Denny's for dinner. Good times.
On to the Match Tour format: I'm not thrilled because of the way it runs for people who run well on Saturday. I say this because I did run well on Saturday - good enough to take first place in the class! I was generally happy with the way I ran but never got all of the elements right and probably left close to a second in the big turnaround alone. Regardless I won the class and that automatically put me in the Challenge on Sunday, along with Matt Wareham from the Daytona Beach area. So Sunday consisted of getting Kieran ready to run first thing to finish out their 6 runs. As of now, there is no challenge round for the kids, so they are done after 6 runs just like a regular Tour (now called the Championship Tour). That may change for future Match Tours with large kid turnouts.
For the rest of Sunday, I waited and watched as the last chance folks (who didn't qualify on Saturday) ran their last two runs. And then I waited for the challenge rounds to be drawn, and then I worked and waited some more while those rounds worked through. All the while the sun, which had started out shining, was retreating. By the time we finally ran, almost 24 hours since we last ran, the sun was a distant memory and the surface had cooled with a nice breeze. Even knowing that, I knew I only had two runs to move ahead so I went aggressive and it didn't go well. I went off course when my front tires understeered right through a wall, so that run was done. I came around and tried to calm myself while still realizing I needed to get a good run in. At least one advantage of running in the challenge is getting warm tires for the second run. So I went out and hit almost the first possible cone I could to ruin any shot I had. I still drove like a maniac for the rest of the run to test how well the tires would stick in a few areas where I'd given up a little more than I thought I had to. The last such element I had apparently gotten right all along because I hit one cone, then four more that lodged underneath and sent me sliding to nowhere in particular, thus ending my weekend in disappointment for the challenge.
So I won't be doing another Match Tour until they revise the format to stop penalizing the Saturday winners.
And the continuing saga of Kieran's motor is close to closing. I sent Eric's motor back and he sent Kieran's back to us. I got his back today with a mind to going to ETR's 2nd event tomorrow, but Eric forgot to send back the air filter and exhaust springs. Also missing the throttle cable, but I have spares of that, just not the others. So no event tomorrow, but that's OK because we have a bunch to do. All of the kids started sports (T-Ball for Sinea, Softball for Keen, and Baseball for Kieran) so we need to go buy batting helmets for all of them. Keen also needs a bike, so we'll go shopping for those things tomorrow instead. And maybe watch the F1 race and some Masters.

Pontardawe's signature 'pulpit' hole. A short but demanding par 4 gives a great chance of birdie but can also destroy a good card. Out of bounds on the left, trees on the right and a ditch to clear means that this hole is all about an accurate and long tee shot. Driveable for the big hitters!
