* TSX down 172.12 points, or 1.47 percent, at 11,569.65
* U.S. consumer data ignites fears about growth
* Nine of 10 main TSX groups end lower (Adds details, quote)
By Jennifer Kwan
TORONTO, July 16 (Reuters) - Toronto's main stock index skidded on Friday as weak U.S. economic data and earnings results heightened worries about a slow recovery, and pushed down heavily weighted resource issues.
Toronto's slide tracked a sharp decline by U.S. stocks, which tumbled in part after consumer sentiment fell to nearly a one-year low, highlighting the sluggishness of the economic recovery.
As well, weak energy costs pushed U.S. consumer prices down for a third straight month in June. [.N]
"You get a little bit of enthusiasm going here and all of a sudden you get squashed because consumer sentiment in the U.S. fell to an 11-month low," said Fred Ketchen, director of equity trading at ScotiaMcLeod.
"That tells you there's not a lot of confidence out there."
The Toronto Stock Exchange's S&P/TSX composite index .GSPTSE ended down 172.12 points, or 1.47 percent, at 11,569.65, with nine of its 10 main sectors lower. The small healthcare group rose 2.7 percent. For the week, the TSX was down 0.01 percent.
The economic worries helped to push down each of the index's key energy, materials and financial groups by more than 1.5 percent.
The blue chip S&P/TSX 60 index .TSE60 closed 10.97 points lower, or 1.59 percent, at 678.84.
Suncor Energy Inc (SU.TO) was down 1.6 percent at C$32.33, dragged lower as oil fell to around $76 a barrel on jitters about the health of the recovery and the outlook for demand. [O/R]
Barrick Gold (ABX.TO) fell 1.9 percent to C$44.00 as U.S. gold dropped on weak inflation data and a selloff in equities prompted fund selling. [GOL/]
"Fears are still there about double dips," said Ketchen, referring to the selloff in commodities.
Also weighing on investor sentiment were disappointing quarterly revenue from U.S. bellwether General Electric, as well as financial heavyweights Bank of America and Citigroup. [.N]
Canadian banks got caught up in the sour mood, with Royal Bank of Canada (RY.TO) down 1.7 percent at C$54.09, while Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS.TO) fell 1.4 percent at C$51.71.
A headline event for Canada next week will be the Bank of Canada's interest rate announcement on July 20, with the market pricing in a 90 percent chance of a 25 basis point hike to 0.75 percent. BOCWATCH
Andrew Parkinson, managing director at Van Arbor Asset Management, said the central bank's decision shouldn't affect stocks significantly.
"The market to a certain degree has priced in a quarter-point rise and so I think the effect is already in the market. You may see a knee-jerk downward pressure, but on the whole it's taken it into consideration," he said.
"The question is what sort of earnings are we seeing and where is that leading us," he added.
Upcoming quarterly results include those from Encana Corp (ECA.TO), Loblaw Cos (L.TO), Shoppers Drug Mart SC.TO and Canadian National Railway (CNR.TO).

Life is showing me a lot of twists and turns, there have been just tears and tears since one month. But now i'm a lot more composed. I've finally decided to stop crying, its not getting me anywhere and it certainly will not get me what I want. It's something to do with love. And I gave in to the saying "If you love someone, set them free. If he comes back he was yours. And if he doesn't he wasn't " I've left the future in God's hands, coz there isn't much I can do to change the situation. It's practically out of my hands. I'm just keeping the faith and living each day with the happy memories I have. And not lament over what I might or might not get. And at the same time, I'm trying to move ahead. Not get stuck up, not bottle up all my emotions, or feelings. Letting it out in various ways, making cards and listening to good music is another of it.
So I de-stressed by making a few cards. The Dentist my brother assists, sent me an amazing book on the way Mumbai was pre-independence. Great book. So I made him a thank you card and since his 5 yr old chatter box kid would ask why she didn't get anything, I made her a card too.
I used a roller stamp and partially inked images to separate them. It was a pink Fabriano paper. And oh yes I forgot to mention that my brother gifted me a faber-castell set of watercolor pencils. 48 of them. Gifted would be a wrong word coz I kinda bullied him into buying it for me as an advance rakhi present. Sisters can be mean sometimes, especially when Rakhi or b'day's are around.
This one was a very simple one with a handmade marbled paper I brought almost a year back. Since I basically eyeball all my layering and gluing, most of the times my cards are a little crooked. Makes it look hand-made IMHO. hehe!!
till next time

God is good! I have been blessed to serve the New Jerusalem Church as youth pastor for nearly 10 years now. I know it sounds unbelievable, but about 70% of our church members are under the age of 30. I have ministered to over 200 young people while serving as youth pastor. These young people are awesome! Our youth group regularly participates in church-organized outreach programs and activities geared to minister to our community and local schools. It's great to see them working for the Lord!
In 2007, through an alliance with local businesses and government agencies, the church opened a community center. Like many parts of the world, there is much poverty, crime and drugs in our area. The purpose of the center is to provide vocational training to children, youth and adults. Our goal is to offer an alternative lifestyle that keeps young people out of gangs, delinquency and drugs.
In addition to my work as youth pastor, a truly life-changing experience has been to serve as chaplain in a local high security prison for gang members. Direct contact with the inmates is not allowed, so I minister to them through a wire mesh opening above their jail cells. On a recent visit to the jail, the mother of an inmate was visiting as well. The inmate introduced me to his mother and said, 'Mom, I want you to meet Pastor William. He is helping me to change.' Praise the Lord! It is not me but Christ who lives in me who is reaching these souls for His Kingdom!
"I am thankful to God and CATS for giving me the theological, biblical and administrative tools that allow me to develop these ministries."
– William

Tackle your toughest and most challenging jobs while still providing safe, damage-free excavation with truck-mounted hydro excavators. Dawson offers the full line of truck mounted hydro excavators from Ramvac, most notably the industry leading HX-6 Mid Size Hydro Excavator and the bigger HX-12 and HX-15. Rest assured that RAMVAC manufactures the most productive, highest quality, and best value machines available.
The world's first mid-size hydro excavator, the HX-6, combines the productivity of a large hydro excavator with the maneuverability of a single axle 39,000 pound chassis. The HX-6 is designed to work as productively as the large hydro excavation trucks – and in places they can't. Work in alleyways, off-road, and all of those hard to get to locations while getting fuel economy that puts the bigger machines to shame. The HX-6 makes the perfect solution for municipalities, utility companies, and hydro excavation contractors. This model is also available with a RamAir air excavation system for when you can't risk adding water to the problem area.
With larger capacity and great features, the HX-12 and HX-15 bring all of the great Ramvac advantages to you in a larger capacity hydro excavator. The HX-12 and HX-15 feature a 12-yard or 15-yard debris tank respectively for when you can't leave a big job to unload the material. These models features the industry's only temperature controlled environmental chamber and a directional discharge system so you can off load your debris back into the excavation site when you are done – without the mess of dumping your tank.
Ramvac understands that operators need a truck that can be repaired in the field quickly with parts that are locally available. The trucks in the HX series are made with easily understood electrical systems and do not rely on complex digital systems. These models are also available with a RamAir air excavation system for when you can't risk adding water to the problem area.
Contact Dawson today to configure the truck mounted hydro excavation system that works best for you.

Organic hair products are not hard to come by. Although it is possible to buy goat milk shampoo, making homemade organic shampoo is possible as well. Goat milk has many proven benefits. The pH in goat's milk is the same as in human skin and modified goat milk is often added to commercial cosmetics. You can easily make your own goat milk shampoo from the comfort of your own home.
Heat the water in a pan and choose from many scented herbs such as fresh chamomile, lavender or rosemary. Chamomile is good to make blonde hair lighter. Lavender is good both for oily and darker hair, and rosemary helps darker hair. You can also combine some herbs like rosemary, lavender and peppermint together to make the shampoo smell even better.
Wrap the herbs you chose in a clean cloth. Tie the cloth with a string. In a pan, heat the water until it boils. Drop the herb pack into the boiling water. Cover the pan and turn off the stove. Let it stand until the herbs seep into the water. This will make a strong tea.
Wring the herb pack by hand to get the water out of it. The juice from the herb pack will bring the aroma into the water. If you prefer not to wrap the herbs in a cloth, let the herbs soak directly in the water. Use a strainer to make sure that no residue remains in the water once the herbs have been taken out.
Add a drop of vanilla or any scented oil of your choice, and then add it to the herbal tea. Add the goat milk, liquid castile soap, and olive oil to the tea. Mix it well. Milk has protein and since hair is ninety percent made of protein, milk will make it stronger and shinier.
Pour the mixture in a dark bottle. Make sure that the shampoo has cooled down before pouring it in the bottle. Shake it well. Homemade shampoo is best stored in a dark container since light can have an adverse effect on the organic elements.
People have different hair types, but since goat milk is safe for almost every hair type, you can adapt your hair by adding additional ingredients such as Aloe Vera for dry hair types, coconut oil for dry scalp and peppermint tea to soothe soreness.
Although homemade products are recommended, be sure that you are not allergic to any of the ingredients used in making your shampoo. If you experience any skin allergies, stop using the shampoo until you have consulted with your doctor.

Several years ago I worked in Downtown Denver on the 16th Street Mall. The Mall is an eclectic place, where people feel comfortable expressing themselves. You will see teenagers with spiky hair and leather clothing on the Mall shuttle, side by side with businessmen in suits. Musicians perform on the corners for donations, and lawyers and clerks hurry through the streets, anxious to get to court.
But, in the midst of this diverse gathering, there was one mall resident that nobody could quite believe. He was a large man, tall and about 250 lbs, and he spent every lunch hour roller skating through the Mall ... in a tank top and tutu. Quite a spectacle, but this man didnt seem to even notice the commotion he was causing. He skated blissfully on, beaming, lost in his fantasy.
I still think of that man/ballerina sometimes. I dont know what his life was like. I dont know what his "day job" was, if he had a home, or a family. But I do know that for a short time, each day, in his mind, he was a beautiful ballerina on skates. And thats exactly what he wanted to be.
Imagination and fantasy can play an important role in achieving the things we fear. Children know this very well. Fred Epstein, in his book "If I make it to Five" tells the story of Matthew, a four-year-old boy with a tumor in his spinal cord. He endured several surgeries and a whole lot of pain by mastering his imagination.
Matthew loved to pretend, and he particularly loved costumes. Many people found it strange that Matthew preferred to dress as Zorro, Spiderman, or in any of the many other superhero costumes he owned, but Dr. Epstein explained that it was actually a brilliant way for his young mind to handle the terrifying and painful life he led.
Dr. Epstein went on to tell the story of Matthews third trip to the operating room for spinal surgery. Matthew was terribly afraid the night before they were scheduled to return to the hospital. "Maybe I could go as Batman" he whispered to his mom. Although she had avoided purchasing the expensive costume, she relented, and the next day Matthew 'arrayed himself in a cocoon of superhuman strength,' as he, now the powerful Batman, swaggered through the hospital halls, coolly raising his hand in acknowledgement to the people greeting him along the way. And Matthew, girded with the strength of his fantasy, successfully made it through the surgery.
The power of imagination need not be reserved for the children and the eccentric among us. We all have the power to use our fantasies to attempt things we never thought possible, to endure things that seem unendurable, and to go places we never believed we could. Motivational speakers call it "imagery". Psychologists call it "self-actualization". I prefer Walt Disneys interpretation: "If you can dream it, you can do it."
Dont worry, Im not suggesting you go out and purchase roller skates and a tutu, or dress as a superhero for your next job interview (although Ive always wanted a couple of those magic Wonder Woman bracelets). But, next time you are tested in a way that seems insurmountable, imagine what it would take to overcome it. Become the person you need to become to triumph over your challenge and do it in your mind first.
You may be surprised at how fantasizing about a victorious conclusion will very often give you the strength and the resources you need to make it come true. Walt Disney further reminds us "When you wish upon a star, makes no difference who you are, when you wish upon a star, your dreams come true." So, let your imagination run wild, and dare to dream! It can happen to you!

I have taken Hiatus (look it up folks) but now I'm back. I have brenna, my cousin, working on a post for me that is sure to knock all your socks off.
I feel like I'm famous. Not the kind of famous where everyone is eager to see what you've written, but the kind of famous where you can have people write "guest" pieces and you don't have to do any work, and the people love you more for that.
That's how famous I am right now.
Today was mostly uneventful. I had a GAF (general allocation of funds) meeting with Terry Ryan on lead guitar. I was a little late getting in, but I didn't miss much. Today Instrumental Music, Drama, Cheerleading, and the Student Senate came in and begged us for money. We heard their cries, and, much like kings did in days of olde, we told them to wait and come back later. We have many more meetings. Those who are unlucky enough to miss the meeting have to listen to audio tapes of it. Ha ha ha!
Then I had my health meeting. Health is another committee that I am a member of for Student Senate. I think the only reason I am on it is because Vonnie has a crush on me, but that is too creepy for me to consider seriously. I'm starting to worry about her, though. She seemed awfully eager to share with us the dangers/side-effects of small pox. Maybe too eager…
Later in the evening (past all the uninteresting stuff) I went to Play tryouts. Dakota State University is putting on "The Fiddler on the Roof" this year. They have also opened up auditions to the community. Dennis Hegg is the guest director. He seems quite enthusiastic about it (so I'm sure it'll be a grand show). But, because it is open to the public, that means that I got there and it looked like a day care had exploded inside the playhouse. Little girls and boys (but mostly girls) were everywhere. Many were straining to remember how much they weighed (or estimating what they could get away with putting down) and the others were chatting about the things that concern kids that age : the pending War in Iraq.
I heard one little girl remark that Bush was only declaring war on Iraq for the his own personal reasons. She said that in his State of the Union, two words that would not be mentioned would be "oil" and "empire" and then chuckled snidley. The other girls laughed and one said, "It's the 'Just Because' war." That's when I went to sit down. I can't stand listening to politics when I don't know enough to get the jokes people make about it.
I sat behind Heather and her whole bloody family. Heather and Chris and their three girls: Meggin, Brigid, and … the baby. Really, they're cute. I am afraid of Brigid, though, because she is Heather 2.0. Picture Heather as a 3 year old (at least, Brigid told me she was three before muttering, "…even germany and france are against it…")
Meggin on the other hand had much more intelligent things to say. She related a scene from "Kilo and Snitch" (or whatever that movie is) which ended with something having to do with sharks or tuna. I forget which one it was. Then she asked if I remembered her. I said, "Of course I remember you" and I flashed my big "I'm an adult and I'm a friend not a Stranger so take the Damn Candy" grin at her. She's so cute. Brigid scares me. One) I keep trying to spell it Briggid which is wrong, but two 'g's just seem right, you know? And Two) … another Heather….
Anyway, with my completed sheet (after figuring what weight I can get away with and still be conservative) and a script, I took to the stage. One thing about this play is that it is Jewish in content. It involves a Jewish group of characters doing Jewish things in a Jewish setting. Not a Brit in sight, so there goes my accent niche. I have never been confident in my "Old Jew" accent, so I didn't dare test it out. It's quite dusty from the few lines of Snatch the utilize it.
The other thing this script has is a lot of Jewish Names. Names like Motel (which is pronounced "modul" but I pronounce it "Motel"), Lazar ("lay-zar", but I say "Laser"), and Tzietel ("zietell", but I say "Tinsel"). I can hardly pronounce these let alone act them out. I don't think that the tryout went that well at all. I didn't feel confident. I felt out of place.
If I don't get a part, though, I can always be in the pitt band. That is the back-up. If that doesn't happen then I can always help with Tech Theatre. Of course, it is always possible that all 3 could happen. Then I could rule the world!
:giggle: Oh, I'm so silly.
I got back to the room where Jeff was in the same spot doing the same thing as when I left… Wierd… But Jeff has been up to a lot. For one, his site is different. I'm not talking about http://lazydesert.net. I am talking about Jeff's new toy : converse.lazydesert.net. This is going to be his new way of blogging. He posts on the "blog" forum and you have to sign up and then you can comment. And we can discuss things at hand. We can discuss that post, or what we like best about each other (it's your eyes : they get me everytime), or even the pending War in Iraq so we can be up to speed. Well, I can be up to speed.
Ugh … I'm tired. And everyone is a lullaby.

so everyone reads matrimonial ads... and enjoys them! Pretty amazing pieces of fiction aren't they? Amusing, to say the least. Going by them, I'd be forced to think the only people who DO get married and live happily ever after are as follows :
1.] Tall
2.] Fair
3.] Slim
4.] Smart
5.] 5' 6"
6.] professionally qualified
7.] Tall
8.] Fair
9.] slim
10.] beautiful
11.] handsome
oh,oh oops...er am I repeating myself? well, that's exactly what happens in the papers... after awhile you know nearly exactly what the next ad is going to say... they all sound the same...!
For once I'd like to see an ad that reads such "wanted, normal height, average looking, presentable bride/groom for equally normal, average looking, man/woman.
or better if it was allowed, I'd send this in as a joke... " wanted midget, loon, with excess body hair and no desire for removal of the same, face like a frog, waist like a balloon, teeth like apples with worms a-peeking from the holes, lazy ass bitch for wedding!!! "
yeah... that would be fun...
what about all the others? The not so tall, regular people with flaws... imperfections... not that different from the ones placing the adverts... they get married too don't they... eventually... and probably happily too.
when the family is aware of the prospective bride/groom's flaws, its probably easier for everyone involved... that way, no surprises are involved and the family can adjust well to the new member, making it easier for the new person to adjust in turn!
how much of that made sense?
See, its better not to hide whats wrong with you, as its not something one can do in the long run... its better to be yourself, right from the start... be proud of your 'baddies' as much as you maybe of your good points, cos its the wrongs that make one human...
Spooky Halloween - They did the mash They did the Cthulhu mash Iä! Iä! The Cthulhu mash It was a dreamy smash In deep R'lyeh, the mash It caught on in a flash They did t...

Mike Holmes Jr., contractor and co-host of Holmes + Holmes on HGTV will take the stage Saturday April 22nd and offer attendees a glimpse into all his contracting knowledge he has built since starting working with his father – celebrity contractor Mike Holmes – when he was just 14 years old. For 11+ years viewers watched Mike Jr. grow up as he helped his father on some of his most ambitious builds and projects, including Holmes in New Orleans, Mike's Ultimate Garage on HGTV Canada and HOME FREE on FOX. Today Mike Holmes Jr. is now a professional contractor, television host, public speaker, educator, guest expert, online personality and focuses on a holistic approach to proper homebuilding. He currently stars in the newest edition of the Holmes series franchise, Holmes + Holmes, where he and his dad transform his modest bachelor bungalow into a two-storey masterpiece.
Décor and renovation expert Tommy Smythe will bring his enthusiasm and fun-loving approach that made him a favourite in the world of international design to the show on Sunday April 23rd. Smythe is a widely recognized designer who has worked alongside Sarah Richardson on HGTV Canada and US in several series as well as making frequent appearances on The Marilyn Dennis Show. Now with his own show called The Search for Canada's Next Designer, Smythe will inspire audiences with his love for mixing fine art with vintage, antique, modern furnishings and his cutting-edge colour sense to the show's attendees.
Local home staging expert of Upstaging Homes, Jillian Summers, will take the stage April 21st and 22nd to discuss home staging and design. Jillian has achieved many awards including designing the Two Dream Home Lottery Homes, The International Masters of Real Estate Staging CSP designation, Best in HOUZZ, RESA Canada Vacant Stager of the Year 2015; in addition, her work has appeared on the cover of several magazines and featured in an HGTV show.
Another local joining the roster of home and outdoor experts will be Will Heeman, the Chief Daymaker at Heeman's, an award-winning garden centre and berry farm serving London. Will is a driving force behind many of the exciting innovations at Heeman's. He will share the hottest trends in gardening for 2017, how to grow your best crop of veggies (even in a small urban space), and discuss exciting new varieties for the spring. Plus his tips on great red & white combos to celebrate #Canada150!
In addition to keynote speakers Holmes Jr., Smythe, Summers and Heeman, the show will bring together everything outdoors, from pools to patios as a complement to the show's indoor design and décor offerings.

well well well, if it isn't 2017.
Just like everyone else, I start the year with reflection and resolutions. This is the first year where I don't feel tremendous pressure to figure out what is next, what I want to accomplish and to FIND happiness. I feel like I've found happiness and contentment in knowing what I want to do and accomplish now. I am not where I want to be, but where I want to go is (finally) very, very clear. I heard (through Kathy Griffin's book, of all places) that she was once told "I know a lot of people that got everything they ever want, and it went down the toilet pretty quick!" – and I couldn't agree more. Always be grateful, but always seek more. Help more people; inspire others. Find more happiness; create better relationships. Pursue your goals; settle for more.
So, in light of a fresh ass year upon us, I am going to go out of my comfort and share some tales as they come. I mean, were like 10 days in and it's already shit show.
- Cook more / Eat out less / Eat more healthy.
My cooking is the hottest disaster North of the Border. The main issue is that I get bored too quick, and I hate cleaning up. So here are some of the cooking adventures I have gotten into so far:
2. My New Vloggggggggging series
I find it awkward to be on Camera, and sharing things about myself, and being less private (I think I walk the line pretty well on this blog). So, by popular demand and a little pressure from friends, I have started Vlogging. I did a trial run when I was in Toronto and it was actually quite fun – the result was 5/10 but I think I can do better. I am a big fan of a lot of Vlogs and do find them helpful and aspirational – so I'm hoping I can do that for others! I can also conquer some fears in the process and hopefully reach a bigger audience! They will mostly be training based, but we will see what it morphs into!
Here is my first go at it:
3. I am finally realizing my destiny of becoming Missy Elliott and taking a Hip Hop class
Dis boy can't dance. But after many jokes, Mel and I have decided to sign up for a Hip Hop class. Primarily for fun, secondarily for fitness. I am actually quite excited, and have no idea what to expect. I feel as an athlete, it's awkward to put yourself out there in some other sport that you aren't good at. I go in and do a sport, everyday, that I am good at!
Should I go buy my High Tops today?

Google is now pushing a fresh monthly update to their world-famous Google Glasses. The company is rolling out the Google Glass update version XE6 coming to the Glass owners along with some gorgeous incredible enhancements to photo captures. The update number is XE6 and follows version XE5.
We have brought the complete changelog given to use by the Google Glass team.
Google Glass XE6 Update:
- Fixes for many issues
- Voice annotate your videos and photos when sharing
- Enhanced cards in the Google Now for sports and a fresh card for the Birthdays
- Developments to On-Head detection. Re-calibrate to enable the improvements.
- Improved photos for glass.
Moreover, the company has brought another great thing along with the current update.
- New attractive sound when taking the Google Glass off
Well, the Google Glass update XE6 does not only carry the aforesaid improvements, but there is something special added to the Photo-taking experience. We have come to know that the Glass team is now enabling the HDR mode, which leads to better photos in bright & particularly low-light situations. The High Dynamic Range (HDR) mode works by taking several good shots at once at various exposure levels and after than blending all of them altogether into one.
The Google team has provided us with some examples of the improved camera shots and it is more than just impressive.
Note: The first picture was taken with no HDR enables, and the XE6a??s enhanced camera software photos appear at number second.

Nokia C2 blue Review
The Nokia C2-02 is a handset which is typical of the main Nokia selling
point - simple to use mobiles with competitive price tags! The C2-02 is
essentially part of the Nokia "Touch and Type" series, however they
have now scrapped the name, but the spirit lives on in the form of the
Nokia C2.
The C2-02 has many of the main features expected with todays mobile phones - GSM/GPRS/EDGE, touchscreen, stereo FM radio with RDS and Bluetooth with A2DP. However there are notable omissions in the C2 armoury - No Wi-Fi, no video-call camera and no multitasking for instance. That being said, this handset is not marketed as a top of the range smartphone, therefore we cant really expect the same technologies as the most expensive smartphone models.
The actual touchscreen itself is nothing special either, featuring a small low resolution screen, utilising somewhat outdated resistive technology. But in use the screen and the slider makes quite a bit of sense, particularly making better use of space. The C2-02 mobile is comfortable to use even without a bigger screen. The familiarity of the Nokia system and the ease of us is the biggest selling point here. The Nokia C2-02 uses the Series 40 software, which has a comfortable and familiar feel, even though it's now touch enabled. There are two basic swipe gestures available on the C2 screen - left and right swipe. Each gesture can launch an native or Java applications or even change the phones profile.
In the retail box you will find a charger, a handsfree set, and a 2GB microSD card which is already inserted into the phone. Annoyingly, there is no microUSB cable included, but these are easy to find. At 103mm x 51.4mm x 17 mm, the Nokia C2-02 is compact but hardly the smallest phone with a 2.6†screen. Its not the slimmest phone either, but the chunky feel makes it comfortable to hold and use. As previously mentioned, the display is not class leading, but it is pleasingly responsive, the Nokia haptic feedback system works beautifully giving soft gentle vibrations to acknowledge your input through the screen. In a similar fashion, the keyboard is not perfect, but it certainly does the job without major complaints.
The music player of the Nokia C2 hasn't seen many changes with the exception of touch support. However, its a solid performer with a good set of features. Songs can be filtered by artist, genre and album. The player is compatible with all main formats including AAC, AAC+, eAAC+, MP3, WMA, AMR-NB. The A2DP function also allows the use of Bluetooth earphones.
To sum up, the C2-02 is an entry level model, a decent addition to the Nokia portfolio of easy to use handsets priced at the lower end of the market. It falls somewhere in between those basic call and text only phones, and the top of the range touchscreen smartphones. It has most of the functions any of us actually need, is simple to use and doesnt cost very much!

Channing Tatum plays veteran stripper Mike, who takes aimless Alex Pettyfer under his wing and introduces him to the strip club run by Matthew McConaughey's sleazy showman.
The lad eagerly embraces his new lifestyle, much to the disapproval of his upright sister (Cody Horn), but finds there's a price to pay, while the jaded Mike longs to leave stripping behind.
Very loosely inspired by Tatum's brief teenage career as an exotic dancer, director Steven Soderbergh's film is full of raucous razzle-dazzle as well as deep feelings and the acting is excellent.

So yesterday my first iOS game, Who's New at the Zoo, made its way into the App Store. This posts is kind of a making of report and how I managed it on a tiny budget.
Who's New at the Zoo? is a fun new puzzle game for young kids focusing on improving concentration and memory skill. Every day a new animal moves into the zoo. The players job is to remember who they have seen before and tap who they think is new. As new animals are added, they shuffle positions. The more you play a level, the harder it gets as you can be confused whether you saw the polar bear in this game or one before.
The idea came about from a game I remember playing in nursery similar to Kim's Game. The teacher would show you a tray of toys. You had about a minute to memorize everything in front of you. She would then cover the toys with a towel and you had to close your eyes. One item was removed and when the towel was removed you had to pick out which toys is missing.
The development work started as soon as the idea popped into my head, mid February. As I work full time this was a part time project, working an hour or so a night and at the weekend. After only a few weeks work, on March 3rd I submitted the app to Apple. Wouldn't you know it, they accepted it first time after a week waiting for review.
I have been playing around with Corona SDK, a multiplatform framework, coding in lua. It has an incredibly documented API so getting a working prototype was complete within the first couple of days. It must have been only three days in and I was uploading a test build to TestFlight and distributing a beta copy to friends for testing. This rapid application development would have been severely stunted if it wasn't for finding a fantastic free animal vector pack from the brilliant CustomizedGirl. Maybe with a future release I'll create my own animals illustrations but people seem to love them so probably best mess with a good thing.
Testing the app with friends and their kids was a really interesting experience and shaped the game a lot. My youngest tester, at 3 would talk through who he had seen in previous rounds with his dad and press each one to confirm before hitting the correct answer. He loves the noises, big ticks and crosses. Getting all three stars and a high score wasn't as important to him as I though it would. He just wanted to play the game for the sake of playing. For this reason the points system was pushed to a nice to have for any bigger kids, cutting it back leaving it simply big and colourful.
Points and highscores weren't ripped out completely after my 20 something friends got hold of it and became hooked. Getting the top score on level offered some serious bragging rights, given how tricky it is to get a perfect round. Memorising 12 animals isn't as easy as you might think. There was pretty encouraging, for a game I had aimed solely at nursery school aged kids in the beginning.
Marketing is something I've never really done before. I had kind of banked on Apple accepting my app the first time, telling friends it was due for launch on the 14th. It could have easily bit me in the ass if Apple said no. Luckily they said yes. So I've been emailing reviewers every since hoping to get some exposure. I would have loved a bit more hype on the run up so maybe for the next one I'll leave a bigger gap between launch and review.
The total budget of this project not including Apple and Corona membership which I already had was only £6 which was spent on the menu music. All other sounds and graphics where either hand crafted or public domain. That's the indie way. There's plenty great sites out their for free graphics and sound effects like vecteezy.com and freesounds.org to really help keep your budget to a minimum. There's no need for expensive tools either. GIMP and Inkscape are good enough alternatives to Photoshop and Illustrator for the most part.
So what does the future hold for Who's New at the Zoo? Well the game is about ready to go for Android. It really just depends on how well the iPhone version goes since I'll need to upgrade my Corona license. I plan on getting some themes in there, maybe sea life, farm animals or even vehicles. Since there are a lot of big kids playing, maybe some trickier challenges like an all bears level but this really depends on my illustrating skills.

VA Drives Plans for Patient Education, Experience Improvement
The VA will continue its efforts toward driving patient-centered care and patient education through a PTSD decision aid.
Source: Thinkstock
- The VA Health Administration implemented an online tool to drive patient education about post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and mental health treatment options.
The PTSD Treatment Decision Aid outlines different evidence-based treatments, provides information that will specifically help members of the military, and provides patient testimony about the benefits of different treatment options.
Offering multiple points of view about PTSD treatments will show veterans a comprehensive overview of their treatment options and eventually lead to better healthcare decisions, said VA Secretary David J Shulkin, MD. The goal is allowing veterans to make their own healthcare decisions and to put them in the driver's seat.
"The health and well-being of the courageous men and women who have served their country in uniform is the VA's highest priority," Shulkin said in a statement.
"The PTSD Treatment Decision Aid is an important step in putting Veterans in control of their health care," Shulkin added. "By helping to bridge understanding and communication between Veterans and providers about the most effective treatment options available, we are ensuring Veterans receive the treatments that best promote their healing and recovery."
READ MORE: VA Deal Drives Patient Education on Mental Health Treatment
The tool also lets veterans build a chart of their preferred treatment options and to print it out to share with their providers. For security purposes, the tool erases patient information after he or she logs out.
Offering quality PTSD treatment is vital at the VA. About 8 percent of all patients will experience PTSD in their lifetimes, but that number is exacerbated in veterans who have experienced hardships during their service. In total, the VA treats about 620,000 veterans for PTSD.
Ensuring that the agency offers multiple different PTSD treatments – and making sure patients understand which protocol will be right for them – is key to supporting this vulnerable population, said VA Acting Under Secretary for Health Poonam Alaigh, MD.
"We know from research and our own clinical experience that Veterans can recover and improve their quality of life with the right PTSD treatment plan," Alaigh said. "We want our Veterans and those who care for them to have access to effective treatment options. Knowing about the latest research can help them get the best care possible."
Presenting a better patient experience and more patient-centered healthcare is a part of the VA's strategic vision going forward. In Shulkin's "State of the VA" address late last month, the agency Secretary reviewed the progress the VA has made in improving patient care and the direction the agency plans to continue.
READ MORE: VA Launches Center for Patient-Centered Healthcare Innovation
While the VA made commitments to improve patient care as recently as last year, Shulkin maintained that the agency still has great strides to make before he can deem the VA healthy.
"As a physician, I tend to look at things in terms of the way I was trained — assess, diagnose and then aggressively treat the patient," Shulkin said in the address. "Though we are taking immediate and decisive steps, we are still in critical condition and require intensive care."
During the address, Shulkin touched on some of the progress the agency has made. The VA has implemented same-day health services in all of its 168 medical centers, offering better treatment access for veterans.
The VA sees over 22 percent of veterans on the same day as patients request an appointment, Shulkin reported. The agency is also the only medical system in the country that publicly posts its wait time data online.
While only 10 percent of community-based clinics offer same-day appointment access, Shulkin plans for that number to reach 100 percent by next year.
READ MORE: The 3 Building Blocks Supporting Patient Engagement Strategies
The VA has also received ample feedback about the pitfalls of the Veterans Choice program and how patients can access third-party healthcare in the face of extraordinary treatment barriers.
In March, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) published a report stating that patients participating in Choice wait up to 81 days for a third-party appointment, far exceeding the agency's 30-day goal wait time. This exceptionally long wait time is the result of a convoluted scheduling process, GAO found.
The agency also faced the Veterans Choice program expiration, originally slated for August 2017. After testimony from both VA officials and other policymakers, Congress voted to extend the program and allow it to work out its kinks.
The VA plans to overhaul the Veterans Choice scheduling process in response to both the program extension and the GAO report. The agency will streamline how veterans utilize the program by increasing the number of third-party facilities available to patients.
The agency will also add more DoD health facilities to the Choice program. Only three DoD facilities currently participate in Choice, but Shulkin contends that veterans should be able to access any DoD healthcare center.
Shulkin will also be using the VA quality star ratings to make individual facility improvements, he reported in his address.
The agency has already identified the 14 facilities that have scored only a one-star rating, which is below the acceptable quality of care for any patient. The agency is working to improve those facilities first by enlisting expert teams to implement performance improvement plans.
Through these efforts, Shulkin wants to make a health system that is on par or better than anything offered to veterans across the country.
Ultimately, Shulkin aims to "turn the VA into the organization Veterans and their families deserve, and one that America can take pride in," he concluded.

There are 65 mini-games in Mario Party 2. They are divided into four-player, one vs. three, two vs. two, and battle games. The type of mini game is determined by the color of the spaces players land on. If all 4 players have the same color panel, whether it's red or blue, a four player mini game begins. If 2 players have a blue panel, and the other 2 have a red panel, then it's a two versus two mini game. If one player has a blue panel, and the others have a red panel, or vice versa, then a one versus 3 mini game begins. If a player lands on a battle space, a battle mini game begins

Nikki is the Creative Assistant of 35 Denton and she would be considered a sophomore, thankfully high school is not a thing. Personal Assistant in law by day, Creative Assistant in the evening, night, or early morning, professional dog sitter all the other hours of the day. Nikki has been in Denton for five years but mainly lives out of her car, as you can find at least 20 pairs of shoes or 10 outfits spilling out of her trunk at any given time. Red Bull fanatic, nature lover, devoted traveler, shoe collector, musically bi-polar, sports ball, and professional awkwardly sarcastic.
Adele "Hello"
Hi my name is Nikki. I am a basic white girl who enjoys the sweet sounds of Adele's haunting voice. I have been playing this nonstop, and admittedly sing it at the top of my lungs in the car. Side note: as basic as I am, I do not own Ugg boots.
The Rolling Stones "Best of Burden"
I jam this forever. It is, by far, my favorite Stones song. I distinctly remember listening to this song sitting in passenger seat of my dad's beat up truck when I was very young, and it has become one of my favorite memories.
Ben Howard "Keep Your Head Up"
Ben Howard. That is all. Bow down. If you haven't seen him live, I would bucket list that pronto. The passion he performs with is unmatched. This song is the epitome of perseverance. I jam this when I am having an off day. Pair this song with wine for full effect.
Disclosure "Omen"
I plain and simple listen to this song to dance my ass off. Not literally, but that would be cool. I could probably fit in my jeans better.
Florence + The Machine "Dog Days are Over"
This is the song that made me realize I was falling deeply in love with someone.
Beyonce "Partition"
My roadtrip song. I sing every lyric as if I am Beyonce. I fight through traffic with this and it always makes me feel a little bit better when going into work on a Monday. Be Beyonce Always.
Explosions in the Sky "Your Hand in Mine"
There are no words to this, and I think that is why I play this on a weekly basis. I have driven to this song at dusk more times than I can count. All the feels, all the time.
Childish Gambino "Bonfire"
Donald Glover is my dude. This song makes me laugh with its punny-ness, the hook has me acting like I can dance and rap. Which I can guarantee is not the case. Sorry 'bout the cursing.
The Animals "House of the Rising Sun"
I asked someone near and dear to me to give me a song that reminds them of me for this playlist. While I think it's great that people get to hear what I like to listen to, I wanted some outside perspective of something that reminded me of them. When I asked this person "what, why?" it was explained that I randomly sing this song more than I probably realize. Also note my person said the lyrics "Well, I got one foot on the platform, the other on the train," described me perfectly, I am never quite content with where I am. I will pretend like my person wasn't calling me a ball and chain.
The Head and the Heart "Lost in My Mind"
When it feels like winter — like coffee, like late night books, like tea, like cigarettes in the evening, like never ending conversations — that's when I listen to this song.
Cherub "Doses & Mimosas"
I jam this on Sundays when I am on my way to get mimosas and brunch, usually nursing a hangover that can only be cured by Mexican food and Cherub's sound.
Rihanna "Bitch Better Have My Money"
My job is 50 percent trying to get people to pay their bills. I sing this on the daily to break up the monotony of having to make phone calls and feeling like big ol' jerk, or when people aren't the nicest, so I start to feel a little gangster. (Definitely not)

Since I was preparing a new issue of our z Systems eZine, I guess LinuxONE was an obvious choice to have an article about. So let me also share its content over here.
The hardware
In short, LinuxONE is a mainframe machine with only Linux. And when we look at the hardware there are two models : the Emperor and the Rockhopper. And yes, they are named after a couple of penguin species.
The largest model is based on the z13, that was announced last January and the Rockhopper is based on the z12 BC. Since e.g. the LinuxONE Emperor inherits the characteristics of the z13, you have a machine with a possible 141 Linux engines and 10TB of memory. Or as Ross Mauri (General Manager, z Systems, IBM) puts it : "8.000 virtual servers on an Emperor, hundreds of thousands of containers in one system (...) 5Ghz microprocessors, 320 channels for I/O and each channel has two dedicated power processors, it's an I/O monster, up to 10TB of memory, a huge set of cache (...)". As we all know, being an 'I/O monster' is one of the biggest assets of these machines. If you have the time, you can find Ross Mauri's pitch in a 30-minute youtube video you find over here.
The message that accompanies LinuxONE is based on three 'slogans'.
Let me clarify them a bit for you
Linux Your way
"IBM LinuxONE allows you to choose the Linux distribution, hypervisor, applications and databases, management tools, and services" (*). This is not only a valid statement for people already running Linux on mainframe but perhaps especially for people who are running Linux on other platforms for the moment.
At the operating system level, this means we need more Linux distributions, so IBM announced the support for Ubuntu as well. But even more important to pull Linux people into the mainframe world is that they can use a familiar hypervisor. That's why next to PR/SM and z/VM, LinuxONE also supports KVM as a hypervisor. This means that people used to work on x386 platform can now far more easily make the step towards mainframe without having that steep learning curve that was there before.
But what also intrigues me : when I look at the announcement of KVM on z Systems (ZP15-0359) it indicates that it does not only run on the LinuxONE but also on z13, zEC12 and zBC12. So that would be on IFLs next to e.g. z/OS. And it also support ECKD volumes on the DS8000.
Then talking about programming languages, development and databases, just let me give you an extensive list, to give you an idea of what's cooking underneath all this.
Programming Languages: Python, Ruby, Ruby on Rails, R Language, GO, Scala, Clojure, PHP, Java, oCaml, ErlangThis really opens up a whole new world for us, who are used to z/OS, DB2 and CICS. But it's also becoming a large part of the future of the mainframe. Even if we have to discover an entire new world. So, fasten your seatbelts and let's go. !
Development & Build Runtime Environments: Node.js, Apache HTTP Web Server, Apache Tomcat, OpenJDK, LLVM, GCCGO, Zend Framework, Erlang native compiler
Cloud Management: IBM Wave, IBM Cloud Manager, IBM Urban Code, Openstack, Docker, Chef, Puppet, VMware vRealize Automation
Database: Oracle, DB2 LUW, Cassandra, CouchDB, MySQL, MariaDB, MongoDB, PostgreSQL
Analytics Tools with IBM Big Insights (Hadoop), DB2 BLU and Spark
Linux without Limits
"This is the second pillar of LinuxONE. Lightning fast response times and virtually unlimited scale gives your applications the premium Linux experience they deserve." I think I already touched upon this, when I quoted Ross Mauri earlier with his description of the possibilities of the Emperor. Scale out at its best. But there's also the value of Scale up : you can support "the largest business applications within a single system, without having to spread transactions and data over multiple servers".
Linux without Risk
"Ensuring that your data and services are fully protected and available when and where your clients need them with the industry's most secure and resilient Linux system."
I don't have to elaborate too much on this one either : we're talking about availability, business continuity and definitely also security : "The LinuxONE systems provide isolation at multiple levels - applications, containers, virtual servers and partitions, allow for full encryption of the data (...). They allow for end-to-end security, identity and access control to protect your clients and your business reputation".
Pricing : Elastic pricing
This elastic pricing is also described as 'Cloud on Premise'. You have a kind of monthly licensing for what you are using during a specific month. So, you don't buy the hardware, you order the hardware that you need, you order the software that you need, it's in your data center, you use it and you're billed on your monthly usage. Since pricing is always a very sensitive matter, I'll quote Ross Mauri again : "This is like cloud like pricing but on prem. It's for hardware and software, you order what you need, you pay for what you use. Your usage can go up, it can go down, it's metered, you pay by the month". But we all know IBM pricing is never that simple. So contact your IBM or BP representative if you want to get a clear picture on all the details.
IBM zAware and Open Mainframe Project from the Linux Foundation
One extra item I want to mention in this context is the Open Mainframe Project of the Linux Foundation. The Linux Foundation is a "nonprofit organization dedicated to accelerating the growth of Linux and collaborative development. In collaboration with the Linux Foundation, IBM will support the Open Mainframe Project, a collaboration of nearly a dozen organizations across academia, government and corporate sectors to advance development and adoption of Linux on the mainframe".
Now what about IBM zAware ? Along with the z13, we saw already that similar to z/OS, support for the analysis of Linux images on mainframe was announced. Now IBM zAware is becoming available on the LinuxONE machines for native and guest Linux images. But what's more, the largest contribution of source code IBM is making to the open source community is actually IBM zAware. Open source developers will be able to add their own code to it.
LinuxONE Community Cloud for Developers and students for free
And finally : do you want to have a go at LinuxONE at no charge. Then you should head over to the LinuxONE Community Cloud : you can obtain a LinuxONE virtual server for testing and piloting emerging applications for evaluation purposes. As a developer or student you can get a 90 day trial that includes up to 2 virtual CPUs, 2 GB memory and 40 GB of storage!
Some reference material
- IBM announcement of LinuxONE
- Information about some Open Source software for IBM LinuxONE (like e.g. MongoDB, Docker, MariaDB, Node.js and Spark)
- Manual : KVM for IBM z Systems : Planning and installation guide.
- Manual : KVM for IBM z Systems : Administration Guide.
- FAQ about access, registration and use of LinuxONE Community Cloud
- Redbook : Getting Started with KVM for IBM z Systems
What I think will be the most difficult step to take is that every one who wants to take the step towards LinuxONE will have to leave their comfort zone. As mainframers, we're not familiar with KVM, MongoDB, OpenStack or containers like Docker, but it's a possible, real future for our (dare I say) beloved mainframe. For people familiar with all these things, it takes a leap of faith to leave the familiar x386 platform or whatever platform they're using for the moment and taking that step towards the mainframe. All in all, this could be a game changer for the mainframe.
After I wrote this conclusion I started browsing through the Youtube videos again and you know, just have a look at the two videos below. They just show what I tried to express in words.

The electronic control unit (ECU) or electronic control module (ECM) controls the performance and power of the diesel engine using a number of sensors within the engine and machine adjusting actuators and relays this to deliver the correct fuel / air mix, idle speed, pressures, wastegate control and other functions.
The glow plug heats the diesel engine to enable better cold starting, making sure the top of the cylinder and the air entering the cylinder is hot enough for fuel ignition during the compression cycle.
Sensors and senders help control diesel engine function providing information and feedback on fuel and air flow, exhaust gas flow and content as well as temperature and pressure so that the modern Perkins diesel engine can operate efficiently, and maintain emissions standards.
Solenoids are used to control and switch on and off the starter and turbocharger, using a small electrical current to switch a larger, heavier device.
Starters or the starter motor provides the force to turn the flywheel and crankshaft to start the diesel engine, and are designed with the size and format to match the engine and application.
Wiring loom and harness for Perkins diesel engines are supplied as complete loom with plugs and connectors wire to the electronic control module (ECM) and sensors for fast easy fitting.

What's your favorite dessert? Without hesitation I can tell you that I have 2 – Cheesecake and Rice Krispy treats. I actually eat Rice Krispy treats more often than cheesecake because they are easier to make and I can find them in coffee shops and vending machines. I am a Rice Krispy treat purist. I don't need anything fancy in them, just the normal recipe from the side of the box.
A couple of months ago there was a bake sale where I work. There were all kinds of goodies, but I headed straight for the Rice Krispies. They were all individually packaged and had little labels on the outside. To my surprise…they were flavored Rice Krispy treats. WHAT!? When did this start happening? People are making them into special flavors now?? As soon as I saw the white chocolate/lemon flavor, I knew I had to try them. I love white chocolate more than any other chocolate. Shhhhh, don't tell my oldest daughter, she would probably disown me if she knew that. These Rice Krispy treats were delightful. They were gooey and sweet….perfection!
Last night I had a craving for Rice Krispy treats, so I thought I should try to reinvent the white chocolate lemon version. I found a recipe online and got to work. My little sous chef decided to help me make them. I let him have the job of zesting the lemons. I realize that the tool he is using in the pic below isn't a zester, but I don't have a zester and the grater works just fine. Although, if anyone wants to buy me a zester (hint, hint to my family for Christmas), I would gladly accept it and use it.
These treats take no more than 10 minutes to prepare. I have to admit that these were not as "chocolaty" as the ones from the bake sale, but I'm ok with that. The flavors in this recipe were more subtle, and I think that's ok, especially if you are going to make these for a crowd of people. I would certainly like to play around with this recipe in the future to make them more like the ones I had at the bake sale. I'll keep you posted. Anyone have any other interesting Rice Krispy flavors that they've tried? I need some creative ideas for the holidays!

Blueberry Muffin Recipe – Blueberries with a Purpose

I have never understood something about blueberries. For me, blueberries have zero appeal outside of a baked good. I have never found them to taste good when they are raw. My husband seems to enjoy them raw. I think he ate an entire container of them in one day. If I want to use them in a recipe, I have to use them immediately or my family will eat them and my recipe will be short on blueberries. Again, I don't understand why they like these raw and boring pieces of fruit, but I'm not going to question them about it because I know that they are really good for you.
Now, once you put these little, tasteless berries into a baked good, they turn into one of the most delightful treats on the planet. I love them in scones, muffins, pancakes, and cupcakes, and I think that most people like them that way too.
If there is any baking that needs to be done, most people know that I am the first
dummy person to raise my hand. I just love to spend 5 hours in my kitchen baking up something wonderful. No, really I do. It sounds crazy, but the most relaxing part of my day is spending time in my kitchen baking. So when my coworker asked me to bring a baked good for our United Way fundraiser, I jumped at the opportunity. My baking-obsessed mind moved right towards a recipe that I have made several times. It is a blueberry muffin that adds a secret ingredient – lemon zest – and has a delicious streusel topping. This was one of the first muffins I ever made, and it was a huge hit with my coworkers.
If you are ever asked to prepare a breakfast, baked item, I highly recommend this one. It's easy and tastes like it took days to prepare. These muffins were gone in less than 30 minutes, and people kept asking if I had more. We were able to raise $70 for United Way, and I'm glad that I was able to participate.
Blueberry Muffins
Yields 12 muffins
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 egg
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/4 tsp lemon zest
1/3 cup buttermilk (regular milk works or make buttermilk by adding a tsp of vinegar to the 1/3 cup of milk and letting stand for 5 minutes before using)
1 cup fresh blueberries
Streusel Topping:
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup butter, cubed
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease muffin cups or line with muffin liners.
Combine 1 1/2 cups flour, 3/4 cup sugar, salt and baking powder. In a separate bowl, mix vegetable oil, egg, vanilla, lemon zest and buttermilk. Add this to the flour mixture, mixing just until incorporated. Fold in blueberries. Fill muffin cups right to the top.
To Make Crumb Topping: Mix together 1/2 cup sugar, 1/3 cup flour, and 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon. Cut in the ¼ cup butter using a pastry blender, pizza wheel or food processor until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Sprinkle over muffins before baking.
Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in pans on wire rack.

Shetland Isles, Scotland
SHETLAND, or ZETLAND, ISLANDS, forming, with Orkney, a maritime county, in the northern extremity of Scotland; bounded on the north by the North Sea, on the east by the German Ocean, and on the west by the Atlantic. They lie between 59° 51' and 60° 52' (N. Lat.) and 52' and 1° 57' (W. Long.), and extend for about seventy miles from north to south, and fifty-four miles from east to west; comprising an area of about 855 square miles, or 547,200 acres; 5530 houses, of which 5388 are inhabited; and containing a population of 30,558, of whom 13,176 are males and 17,382 females. These islands, like those of Orkney, with which in their history they are closely identified, appear to have been visited by the Romans, though they effected no permanent settlement in either. They were at a very early period inhabited by the Picts, of Scandinavian origin, who, long after their defeat by Kenneth II., and the consequent union of the two kingdoms of the Scots and the Picts, continued, under his successors, to maintain in these distant territories a kind of independent sovereignty. As closely connected with the Orkneys, the islands were governed by a succession of petty kings till they were subdued by Harold Harfager, who attached them as appendages to the crown of Norway, and placed them under the government of a succession of Norwegian earls. On the marriage of James III., however, with the Princess Margaret of Norway, they became, and they have ever since remained, part of the kingdom of Scotland. They give the title of Earl of Zetland to the Dundas family.
Previously to the abolition of episcopacy, Shetland formed part of the diocese of Orkney; at present it constitutes the synod of Shetland, and comprises the presbyteries of Lerwick, Burravoc, and Olnafirth, and twelve parishes, the ministers of which are appointed by the Earl of Zetland exclusively. There are also two parliamentary incumbencies, in the gift of the Crown. For civil purposes the islands are united with those of Orkney, forming one county under the jurisdiction of a sheriff-depute, who appoints two sheriffs-substitute, one for each of the districts. By the provisions of the act of the 2nd of William IV., Shetland is also associated with Orkney in returning a member to the imperial parliament. The only town is Lerwick, besides which there are merely the village of Scalloway and some small hamlets, on the coasts. Lerwick was erected into a royal burgh of barony in 1818.
SHETLAND comprises a cluster or ninety islands, of which twenty-five are inhabited, and the remainder small holms principally appropriated to pasture. They are nearly contiguous to each other, being separated only by narrow sounds or firths; with the exception of Foula and Fair Isle, of which the former is about twenty-five miles to the west, and the latter twenty miles; to the south, of Mainland, and except also the Out Skerries, which lie about six miles north-eastward of Whalsay. Of the inhabited islands the principal is Mainland, above fifty-five miles in length and twenty-five miles in breadth. To the north of Mainland, from which it is separated by Yell Sound, is the island of Yell; twenty miles long and seven miles in average breadth; to the north of which, again, is the island of Unst, about twelve miles in length and from three to four in breadth. These three are the most important of the group. Of the other islands the largest is Fetlar, to the east of Yell, about four miles and a half in length and three and a half in breadth; and to the south of this, and opposite to Lerwick, is the island of Bressay, about four miles long and two miles in breadth. Of the two distant islands, Foula, supposed to be the Ultima Thule of the ancients, is three miles in length and a mile and a half in breadth; while Fair Isle is about the same in length and two miles broad. Among the remaining inhabited islands are Whalsay, Burra, Trondray, and the Out Skerries; and in addition to these are numerous small isles, holms affording pasturage to cattle, skerries covered by the tide at high water, and rocky islets, which it would be tedious to enumerate.

Interschool Sports Competition
November 7th, 2017
At the weekend there was an interschool sports competition between Gitathuru and Moshimoni School of Hope.There was girls volleyball and under 14's boys cricket.
The students were really delighted to be outdoors and playing sports after the children had to lock themselves indoors to avoid the post election violence in and around Nairobi.
Many of the youths from the Mathare district have been injured and the SoH's have insisted that learners must stay in their homes.
Pics of the cricket and volleyball games and plenty of spectators.

The development of production Technology of steel tubes (Steel pipe) began in the rise of bicycle manufacturing. The development of oil in the early 19th century, the manufacture of ships, boilers and airplanes during the two World War II, the production of thermal power boilers after the Second World War, the development of the chemical industry and the drilling and transportation of oil and natural gas, etc., have vigorously promoted the development of steel pipe industry in varieties, yield and quality
Steel tubes are not only used for conveying fluids and powdered solids, exchanging heat energy, making mechanical parts and containers, it is also an economical steel. The steel pipe is used to manufacture architectural structure mesh rack, pillar and mechanical bracket, which can lighten the weight, save metal 20, and realize the mechanized construction of factory. The use of steel tubes to make road bridges can not only save steel, simplify construction, but also greatly reduce the area of the coating, save investment and maintenance costs.

Well, if we weren't already at Heaven('3')
then, I'd be interested in hijacking that EMI truck.
Which reminds me of a 59 VW bus I saw that was decked to micrograms…
the bumper sticker read: "Driver carries no Dead tapes"
Wowsa! Paul's elusive Corniche. Never seen these. I love this site!
It would probably take longer to park that RR in that tiny car park than it would to simply walk from Paul's house.
Assuming Linda is preggers in the pics which she kinda does then these were possibly taken during Wings Wild Life sessions at Abbey Road in July/August 1971.
I think you're spot on, Hitachi. The hair looks right for this period too.
According to the DVLA Vehicle Check Pauls is a 1969 model and was last on the road in 2003.
I wonder if he still had it then?
The car was photographed in East Hampton, Amagansett, Long Island recently.
Yep, i'm thinking Wildlife.
I have a pic of this roller taken only a few weeks ago parked outside an ice cream store in East Hampton.
Car nerd info:
Since Rolls-Royce didn't use the name Corniche until 1971, Paul's car was a Silver Shadow Mulliner Park Ward drop head coupé. I stand corrected. lol
And so it is.
The car must of left the UK in 2003 then and not been scrapped!
I will ask Paul when I see him Sunday night!

An Arrangement
A young New York woman was so depressed she decided to end her life by throwing herself into the ocean.
Just before she could throw herself from the docks, a handsome young man stopped her.
"You have so much to live for," he said. "I'm a sailor and we are off to Italy tomorrow. I can stow you away on my ship. I'll take care of you, bring you food every day, and keep you happy. When we get to Italy you will be SO GLAD you're alive."
With nothing to lose and always wanting to see Italy, she accepted.
That night, the sailor brought her aboard and hid her in a small but comfortable compartment in the ship's hold.
From then on, every night, he would bring her sandwiches, a bottle of red wine, and make love to her until dawn.
Two weeks later she was discovered by the captain during a routine inspection.
"What are you doing here?" asked the captain.
"I have an arrangement with a sailor," she replied. "He brings me food and I get a free trip to Italy."
"I see," The captain says.
Then her conscience got the best of her, and she added, "Plus, he's screwing me."
"He certainly is," replied the captain. "This is the Staten Island Ferry."
