Ballinderry are a good side - Mick Murphy
The Glenswilly club chairman, Mick Murphy, while disappointed, was very proud of the way his club represented their county
"I have to say, the boys were ver4y go"od represenatatives for Donegal. They dd very well today, playing a very, very good Ballinderry team," said Murphy, while watching Ballinderry lift the cup in Healy Park, Omagh, on Sunday evening
"I suppose at the end of the day, we came up short today. We're that bit disappointed, but for effort you would have to give it 100% and that's it," he said.
Glenswilly gave everything they after falling behind before half-time. They had got off to the perfect start with Michael Murphy, Mick's son, finding the net after just 25 seconds.
They allowed Ballinderry back into the game but then had a magnificent start to the second half which saw them go ahead again and the Glenswilly supporters were beginning to dream.
"At the end of the day that greater experience of Ballinderry told. It is their third year in-a-row and this is our first time.
"It's an experience for us but when you come up against quality, quality always comes to the top. I have to say I wish them the very best of luck going forward," said Mick, who added that the Derry champions hit some great scores over the course of the game.
"They got some fantastic long range points, as good as I have ever seen in my time watching football. There were some brilliant points," he said.
"We played well. I have to admire our lads. I have to give them credit. Each and every one of them, the whole panel have trained hard this year; they worked hard for this. They said they would give it a shot and they did give it a decent shot.
"To be fair no one can take from us that we put a serious effort into it," said the Glenswilly chairman.
It has been a good year for the Murphy household but Sunday was just one of those days that didn't finish well.

The new trailer of Munirathna produced Kataari Veera Sura Sundaraangi shown in the single screen theatres and multipelxes which is scheduled to screen the film seems to have aroused lot of appreciation among the Kannada film fans.
"It is a blast of a trailer. One of the best seen in recent times after the Telugu film Eega trailer' says an ardent Uppi fan who is really bowled over by the production values of the film as showcased in the trailer. The trailer has also been uplaoded in the youtube and has been getting huge popularity.
"The making is good and stylish, And the dialogues are really good. What is particularly liked by me is that when Uppi says "We may have to bring in Ravichandran from Bengaluru to discuss about Love'. There are many hilarious dialogues like this in the trailer which has already made me rock sure that the film will rock with the audience.
It is sure to be an entertainer of Himalayan proportions' says another message that has come to the Portal. Many of the people who have watched the trailer have also been making a special mention about Rebel Star Ambareesh's magnetic screen presence in the film and his thunderous dialogue delivery. The trailer is sure to raise the expectation barometre of the film, but still it is doubtful whether the film will break the records already set about the screening in number of screens in multiplex. The first reason is that KVSS is not releasing on any Holiday like Anna Bond. It is releasing on a working day. Another reason is availability of number of 3 D screens in the multiplexes. The 3 D compatibility may be one major factor that may finally determine the number of screens available for the Kataari Veera Sura Sundaraangi.
Meanwhile, the film's heroine Ramya a.k.a. Divya Spandana is promoting the film like never before and doing everything to make the film a huge success. The way the actress took on producer K.Manju in a Television programme was really astounding. And there were many comical touches in the whole programme when Ramya was telling that she has not received full remuneration from Manju for acting in Kichcha Huchcha and then telling that there should be subtitles when K.Manju speaks was really a blast of a comical interlude. It looked as if it was Ramya who needed the screening of the film earlier than God Father and she was vociferous in defence much more than the film's producer Munirathna himself.

Dil Ki Nazar Se Khoobsurat 27th February 2013 Written Episode Update
Dil Ki Nazar Se Khoobsurat 27th February 2013 Written Episode, Dil Ki Nazar Se Khoobsurat 27th February 2013 Written Update
Madhav is impatently calling Rahul but he is not responding so he decides to call his house and check for him. His mother receives the phone. His mother turns out to be the prinicpal of Aradhya(the same lady whom they had photoshoped the photo). Madhav asks if rahul is around and this irritates his mom. She asks why do he need him so urgently to which he reveals about the press conference. Madhav's mom is angry at him that after charming the audience with his voice and for minting so much of business and also being the CEO of the radio station, he should be courageous enough to attend such conferences. She keeps motivating him and she adds that he shouldnt be over-dependent on rahul for every small things in his life. She says that she knows
Rahul is shown in the gym and he is about to leave from there when he realizes that he didnt have the phone with him till now. He returns to gym in search of the phone when he notices that his phone is with those girls who were drooling over him. He demands his phone back while the girls ask him for a coffee date in exchange of the phone.
Madhav recalls his mother's encouraging words that he can handle the conference alone and decides to attned it no matter what the result would be. He doenst wait for rahul and informs his assistant that he is going up to the stage and attend the media. He is shocked as madhav had never attempted this b4.
Aaradhya and gang reaches the premises of the radio station and try to enter when the guard stops them. Even after numerous attempts he refuses to grand permission to enter. When aaradhya tells that she is desparate to meet ehsaas and tell him thanks, the gurad tells he is ehsaas and aaradhya laughs at him. She says that Ehsaas is not anyone who looks like him as he would be as charming and sweet unlike him. Aaradhya tries those various methods to get the permission from the guard like she know ehsaas from before and they had spoken via phone
las tnight. However he has no intention to let them in.
Finally aaradhya and gang make a strong plan and steal the badges and passes of a group of reporters by fooling them. In this way they enter the building and reach the area where the press conference is to be held.
Madhav goes out the reporters start to taunt him over his appearance. They assume that he is a mere worker of the station and he gets nervous by the response. However, rahul makes the timely entry and handles the situation. Rahul goes through the notes prepared by madhav on what to answer when the reporters ask him something. Madhav sits beside him to support him throughout the conference. The reporters are highly impressed by rahul's appreance and they keep repeating on whether he is ehsaas. Rahul somehow manages to be diplomatic about the answer by saying that ehsaas can be anyone;either me or even madhav. We can't reveal his identity. It seemed that the reporters only wanted to know about ehsaas as they keep rotating questions on him.
Madhav's house is shown and he we r introduced to his professor father. He is watching tv and his wife asks him to keep the news channel that airs madhav's interview. He is amazed to hear this and asks how come he is attending interviews to which she taunts him that he isnt showing trust on his own son and this is the reason why madhav is still lacking confidence. They watch the interview and the scene keeps shifting and madhav's mom sees aaradhya in one of them. She gets furious after seeing her. She is even angry that rahul was with madhav for the conference and it was him who was dealing the media rather than her son. Madhav's sister pallavi and dadi are introduced to the scene. They too come and sit to watch the interview. However, they see the photoshoped image of madhav's mom and says that it is better than the real image and laughs. This doesnt go well with her and they stop laughing. Madhav's mom is the hitler of the house and noone dares to go against her words.
Aaradhya's house and everyone are having dinner. Aaradhya's mom and sister are talking about her jewellery business while aradhaya is busy trying to call ehsaas. She even bribes god that if her call get connected then she will not use her phone for the whole day. Looks like god listened to her and her call gets connected. Ehsaas picks the phone and aaradhya is glad yet she shows her anger by telling that she had come to meet him in the radio station to thank him but he didnt meet her or even looked at her.
Well, to her amazement, ehsaas says he did notice her and compliments her beauty. Everyone are listening to the convo and are stunned.
Rahul and Madhav are talking about the conference and how it went well even though ehsaas was not revealed. Madhav tells about his tension that he had when he was searching for him. He jokingly asks rahul where he was while he was madly calling him.
Princi(madhav's mom) is mad at aaradhya and friends for bunking classes to which aaradhya lies that they were gone to meet ehsaas and convince him to become the chief guest of their coming annual function. Princi is surprised and to test that they r lying or not, tells aaradhya to succeed in bringing him as the chief guest or else she wouldnt be allowed to attend her exams.

It's so hard to believe that a year has passed since I met Nixy! When I starting reading Paint the Town Dead (Silver Six Crafting Mystery #2) by Nancy Haddock, it felt like yesterday since I'd left this series. I hope you made the time to read the first part, because the second part is just as much fun.
From the back of the book:
From the national bestselling author of Basket Case comes the second mystery starring the crafty and cantankerous Silver Six.
Leslee Stanton Nix—aka "Nixy"—thought moving to small-town Lilyvale, Arkansas, would be about as thrilling as watching paint dry. But keeping up with her retired Aunt Sherry and her troublemaking housemates—collectively known as the Silver Six—has proven to be as exciting as it is exasperating.
To kick off the grand opening of their craft shop, the Handcraft Emporium, Nixy and the Silver Six invite Doralee Gordon to teach a gourd painting class. Doralee's spirit gets squashed when her ex crashes the class with his new fiancée, but things really get messy when the bride-to-be later turns up dead. Now it's up to Nixy and the Silver Six to use their melons to find the killer—before someone else gets painted out of the picture.
My thoughts:
As I said in the intro, I was really excited to be back in this series, and that is because the characters are so fabulous. Nixy is a smart and spunky heroine, and Eric is still swoony. I missed them as well the six! Speaking of spunky, the six are some feisty older crafters. The secondary and new faces for this part were also a lot of fun. There were a lot of suspects, but I still managed to put it together just in time.
The story was paced well and I flew through it, devouring not only the mystery, but also the fun asides of the classes and developing relationships. I like that Nixy's and the six's insights are not only respected by Eric, but also occasionally sought after. There were also some new furry faces in this part that made me smile. I liked that even they got some backstory that was explored.
I really look forward to my next visit Nixy, Eric, and the six, as well as trying the recipes and crafts from the back of the book.
Take some time to browse the other great mysteries available from Berkley Prime Crime. While you are there, you can sign up for the newsletter so you never miss a new release. I must warn you though, after browsing my wish list is longer than I could probably read. You can also connect with them on Twitter where you can happen across a fun giveaway as well.
Disclosure: I may receive products in exchange for an honest review. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I personally believe will be good for my readers.

Mars in sharper focus
A global view of Mars
By BBC News Online Science Editor Dr David Whitehouse
The Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) has produced the first detailed map of the planet's surface.
"We now have a definitive picture of the shape of the whole planet," says David Smith of Nasa's Goddard Space Flight Center.
Martian history
The new map was made by bouncing laser light off the Martian surface to determine the height of features to an accuracy of just 13 metres.
The southern hemisphere is old and heavily cratered. The north, however, is much younger, having been resurfaced by magma from volcanoes early in Martian history.
Overall, the northern hemisphere is five kilometres lower than the south. Geologists say that on Mars "downhill is north".
Oddball planet
The laser altimeter shows that Mars is not round. A slice through the planet through the poles shows just how much it deviates from a perfect circle.
Clearly visible in this planetary profile, on the bottom right of the image, is the gigantic Hellas impact basin.
This is a structure that dominates the entire southern hemisphere of Mars. Billions of years ago, an asteroid-sized chunk of rock struck Mars leaving scars that are still visible today.
Ice coverage
MGS observations show that the vertical distance between the high and low points of this impact basin are nine kilometres. The diameter of the crater caused by the impact explosion is 2,300km.
The data also allows an estimate of the amount of ice on the surface. Concentrated at the north and south polar caps, there is about four million cubic kilometres of ice.
Details of the map are reported in the journal Science.

High-speed railway... (27 pics)
The Shinkansen is a network of high-speed railway lines in Japan operated by four Japan Railways Group companies. Starting with the 210 km/h (130 mph) Tōkaidō Shinkansen in 1964, the now 2,459 km (1,528 mi) long network has expanded to link most major cities on the islands of Honshū and Kyūshū at speeds up to 300 km/h (186 mph). Test runs have reached 443 km/h (275 mph) for conventional rail in 1996, and up to a world-record 581 km/h (361 mph) for maglev trainsets in 2003.
Shinkansen literally means "New Trunk Line", referring to the tracks, but the name is widely used inside and outside Japan to refer to the trains as well as the system as a whole. The name "Superexpress", initially used for Hikari trains, was retired in 1972 but is still used in English-language announcements and signage.

This paper presents and discusses the feasible cycles for supplying low-energy-level steam to the desalting flash evaporators of dual-purpose electric-generation and sea-water conversion plants. Cycles which generate electricity as the primary product and desalted water as the byproduct are compared with cycles which produce water as the predominant product and electricity as the byproduct. Investigations include fossil-fueled steam cycles and nuclear-fueled steam cycles at various pressures and temperatures. Determination of the most feasible cycles for various capacity ranges of water production and electrical generation are presented.

Originally, several influential people were put on a Town Center Board. When the Township was founded by transferring and consolidating all local HOA's into one entity, the "Township", several of those on the Board came along free as new government directors. They became incumbents in the election. Their motives were in local business and political power. That is not in itself a problem. The problem in some folks view is that one (or all) of them had ties to contractors and/or properties involved in development or related contracts. They performed their new government jobs in an open and direct way (kudos), following the law. In the background, they were preparing for development and business opportunities (criticism/conflict of interest). In Montgomery County, this has been a longstanding tradition. Someone has to do the job and after all, like the lady once said, the pay is not the greatest in the world (Directors are not paid anything for their work). Now, four of those people have stepped down and others have filed to run for office. Two positions are being filled with new candidates in this election and two are being challenged.
To make it more clear, one of them was voted out of his position and two moved on to other related business activities. Our lady volunteered to work on the road issues, the Methodist Pastor decided to let go (it was said that he wanted to be mayor), and like our lady, the lawyer also went on a "road" trip. (pardon the pun). Now we see a pattern. So then, as a consequence, the road issue became a huge concern for many residents. Our county's plan has been in place for quite some time, but it was not ever presented to the residents as an option. It was just a fact. No one should get in the way. That, in my own opinion, gave residents a false impression, eventually leading to a complete revolt in the community, when confronted with a road bond election. Now that The Woodlands has awakened to the threat of the parkway becoming a freeway for through traffic, other roads in the master plan of the county have also been brought to the attention of the residents. Trees? I see the removal of trees on the parkway and Gosling in the future unless we do something about this. I can hear the increased traffic noise as horns are honked, brakes screech, exhausts boom. Maybe this is what some want, the lowering of property values along the resident corridors of these roads. Can you imagine how wide these two roads will have to be and how busy they will be in 10 or 20 years? We have an added nearby Toll Road now. I was looking for that to take much of the traffic to and from the outside. Alternatives to the master plan should be completed by the county now! We must have our say at the regional and county planning tables. Residents of The Woodlands MUST be able to manage their own streets. Also the bicycle and pedestrian traffic must be considered in the plan. We got here by being a master planned community. Let's keep it that way!
But wait! We are not incorporated, so we have no say-so in the matter at all. We are only spectators. Unless we are a city, we cannot actively participate in regional planning nor have a vote in what happens with our roads. Shenandoah, Oakridge and Conroe has a say, not us! The county owns and is in control of our roads - maintenance and planned widening or other modifications. Now our roads are for the county to plan and benefit, not for The Woodlands benefit. What has been seen as a benefit now is seen as a detriment to quality living here. That my friend, should tell you the situation in a nutshell. Yet there are other issues bothering some residents besides the roads. Those who say the Township is just fine as a government don't realize what we are missing in subsidies and that we are not prepared to ward off other issues that face us with 125,000+ inhabitants.
Just recently, ads have surfaced on Facebook and will soon also appear in the newspaper that local taxes will increase 70% if we incorporate. That was a worse case scenario, plain vanilla thinking, influenced by certain Board members at the time. The truth is that the same people that recently helped plan the road expansions are likely behind these ads. Why? They want the county to have control of the roads because they are tied to development investments outside of The Woodlands. Business and residential properties bought earlier are threatened by us taking control of our own roads. Roads are expensive to build. We just rejected a bond proposal to pay for the extension of The Woodlands Parkway (good for us). Properties and development projects are at risk for those politicians connected to the road issue (bad for them). So the county will use heightened property value taxes to fund some of the costs of expanding roads such as the Woodlands Parkway (good for them). Yes, we end up paying anyway (bad for us). We need the help of the state to force the reduction of taxation of properties when property values rise. Support the efforts to protect property owners from rising taxes in the Texas legislature, a top priority for Dan Patrick!
Finally, in this coming election, I would say at the start if the campaigns, if the candidate is stating the 70% rise in taxes as a reason to vote for them, it is a flag NOT to vote for them in my view and this is the reason. They are playing to the residents' emotions. I don't want a raise in taxes and you likely don't either. But we are not voting in this election on incorporation nor the budget. We are voting on those willing to help us out of this situation and bring us to our own future determination. The previous flawed study on incorporation was performed 5+ years ago. It was influenced by the same people as are now trying to load The Woodlands up with the burden of being traffic channels for the county. Since that study, our property values have risen drastically; income has increased dramatically and a lot of water has flowed under the bridge. We need clear open minds to find the right solution for us. Those elected should represent us, not special interests. If new studies indicate the trendy incorporation approach, then we will vote on its merits. If another timely solution is found, then we can vote on that. But enablement for us to participate in decisions is an absolute MUST! Voting for directors who oppose incorporation without current data will simply block efforts to keep The Woodlands an outstanding place to live. Vote "by the people" in this election.

The Burka Avenger Kicks Butt as Pakistan's First Female Superhero (VIDEO)
In the quiet land of Halwapur, all is peaceful and good. Major Pakistani pop singers come to play concerts for the kids — until the bad guys come to town to shut down the school and terrorize the people. Out of the chaos, a new kind of heroine is born: the Burka Avenger.
By day, she is Jiya, a mild-mannered school teacher, but by night, cloaked entirely in black and armed only with books and pens, she fights to restore "justice, peace and education for all."
The Burka Avenger premiered at the end of July on Pakistani's Geo Tez TV, becoming the first homegrown cartoon series in a country saturated with American media. Perhaps more significantly, it features a female heroine not afraid to take on social injustice.
The show's Facebook page is careful to mention, "The Burka Avenger wears the burka veil to hide her identity like superheroes do." It's an obvious attempt to address what's been immediate criticism from some — like former Pakistani ambassador to the U.S. Sherry Rehman — that the burqa represents female oppression.
Others, like Pakistani novelist and blogger Bina Shah, have noted that the burqa's traditional associations with holding women back have been turned on their heads, even while acknowledging the burqa's problematic nature as a symbol of power.
Creator and Pakistani pop star Haroon Rashid had this to say in an interview with NPR:
"We chose the burqa because of course we wanted to hide her identity the way superheroes do. She doesn't wear the burqa during the day — she doesn't even wear a headscarf, or a hijab or anything like that; she goes about her business as a normal teacher would. And so she chooses to wear the burqa, she's not oppressed … and on the other end of the spectrum, a lot of female superheroes in the West are objectified, and sort of sexualized in their costumes, like Catwoman and Wonder Woman, and that certainly would not work here."
The episodes are entertaining and deliver the satisfaction of good triumphing over evil along with a moral that the Avenger outlines for the kids at the end of every show. So far, 13 episodes have been produced, tackling such weighty issues as child labor and religious violence. Kids seem to love both the concept and the stories. The website offers games, music, merchandise and a cell phone app to add to the experience.
The whole idea started from an iPhone game, as Rashid tells it. There's been a huge rush of interest in the show and there are plans to translate it into 18 languages and broadcast it in more than 60 countries worldwide — so it may be coming to a screen near you soon.
Here's a look behind the scenes of this very cool addition to the ranks of cartoon heroes:

I made a commitment this year to improve my cardiovascular endurance by running. An activity I've never enjoyed. Instead of fueling my dislike for the sport, I decided to focus on the benefit. Running is not only good for the soul but great for the heart, strengthens your joints, torches calories and tones leg muscles. Now that I know the benefits, it's time for the plan. My achievable goal is as follows:
Running, as with just about any sport, brings with it aches and pains. Shin splints, ITBS (iliotibial band syndrome), plantar fasciitis, hip pains, knee pains, sore muscles, etc. As an herbalist, a natural care system is important to me for dealing with aches and pains. I have three go-to-formulas that have changed running for me. I still get aches and pains to some extent but the aches leave quickly and are much less severe.
Comfrey. Often referred to as "people putty." It rebuilds tissue and muscle more effectively than anything I have ever seen. I use Dr. Christopher's Comfrey Ointment at night before bed. I rub it thoroughly on my knees, down my shins, and around my ankles and feet. Note: comfrey ointment may stain your bed sheets; I suggest you wear pajamas and socks.
Complete Tissue and Bone. A synergistic combination for healing and rebuilding tissue, bone, flesh and cartilage. I use the ointment before and after running and I take the capsule supplement everyday. I usually take 9 capsules a day; 3 at breakfast, 3 at lunch and 3 at dinner. The capsule formulation consists of oak bark, marshmallow root, mullein herb, walnut bark (or leaves), gravel root, wormwood, lobelia, and skullcap.
Cayenne. One of the richest and most stable sources of Vitamin E and especially good for the heart, arteries, blood, and the digestive system. I like to take ground cayenne pepper every morning by mixing ¼ teaspoon with my herbal tea. I also apply the ointment on the soles of my feet before running. Along with warming my feet, the cayenne heat ointment promotes the relief of sore and tense muscles and joints.
Whether you're a runner or not, there is benefit in using herbs internally and externally. These are my three favorite go-to-formulas for running. What are some of your natural go-to-formulas?

My Bloody Valentine listen to hearing specialists over noise
Noisy cult rockers MY BLOODY VALENTINE are to offer fans earplugs at all future concerts after the group was booed throughout its set at the All Points West festival in New Jersey at the weekend.
Music fans unfamiliar with the reformed act's sound voiced their disapproval at the festival on Saturday (01Aug09), and now the band has teamed up with a British firm to provide disposable plugs, which fans can pick up on their way into the band's shows.
Shaun Thornburgh, the brains behind the new plug deal, says, "I am very pleased to have struck a deal with such an ear-splittingly loud band as My Bloody Valentine, and respect to them for taking ear damage so seriously. By handing out these disposable earplugs at their gigs, the band is highlighting how important it is to protect ears from damage which, once set in, is irreversible."
My Bloody Valentine frontman Kevin Shields and guitarist Belinda Butcher both suffer from hearing issues - Shields fights tinnitus, while Butcher once perforated an eardrum, according to NME.com.

2011 was a most difficult, yet most amazing year for our family. It was a year of heartache, a year of changes, and a year of blessings. It was a year that we found ourselves making the most difficult choices, travelling a road that no parent should have to, and yet coming out on the blessed end of the journey. It was a year that we lost and found our little boy, lost and found our other three children as well. It was a year that I would never choose to forget, a year that changed our lives forever.
With the memories of 2011 in mind, I am grateful for how it shaped my relationship with Christ. I am also grateful for the smallest blessings are the ones that kept me going on the most difficult days during the heartache and turmoil. Those smallest blessings are the ones that I want to keep track of this year. Every Monday, I plan to post 20 small blessings that I have experienced through the week.
This week I am grateful for
- Safe holiday travels
- family to spend the holidays with
- a warm, comfortable house to come home to after traveling
- 4 kids who did great during the holiday craziness
- mountains of gifts for the kids
- the people who love my kids enough to give them those mountains
- a one cup coffee pot to replace the pot that died recently
- a new chance to enjoy a warm afternoon cup of coffee while my children play happily
- Samoo's vocabulary explosion
- a new, big, fat, orange family member named Einstein (or "Mowwww" if you ask Samoo)
- the new computer to help D stay caught up academically
- D's stability that we have not seen in years
- D's love for occupational therapy
- the OT that praises D and keeps him motivated while he is there
- the chance to reunite with a friend from HS on our way home from Christmas travels
- the chance for my girls to play with my friend's little girl
- the McDonald's gift cards that allow me to take the kids to play occasionally
- the pantry that has food falling out when we open the door because it means there is food in it
- this opportunity to count my blessings
- the fact that it's ok if I am a day late posting, God still knows what is in my heart
What are you thankful for today and as we enter the new year?

Social emotional learning, growth mindset, and grit are buzz words these days in education. These words appear repeatedly in social media.

Lighting. That oft-neglected area of home decor – hang a few light shades, bung in some recessed lighting and your done, right? Wrong. When it comes to lighting you have a grand opportunity to create something truly special; to transform a space from the ordinary to the extraordinary, which is why if you want to make a real impact in a room you should be considering statement lighting.
Even the simplest of lighting options can have an epic quality, as these hanging light bulbs prove.
This 'bird cage' light shade is another example of lighting that is simple in its design, but it is nonetheless charming.
There's something mesmerising about these pendant lights – skillfully made from hand blown glass – that would make you want to stare at them all day.
Now this light shade has wow factor! It completely dominates the space, but not to the extent that the rest of the room is overshadowed by its presence.
Approach your statement lighting with a flourish – much like the ethereal, yet dramatic example above.
A starburst chandelier has glamour, and offers something a bit different to the traditional chandelier design.
This branching bubble chandelier is an unusual creation, and certainly makes an impact amongst the otherwise understated decor of the space.
Despite the plainness of its appearance, this geometric lighting structure still manages to be eye-catching.
How about lighting made from trumpets? It's a quirky approach, but would undoubtedly create a talking point with guests.
Statement lighting doesn't have to be a grand affair. As long as it stands out in the space, it has done its job.
Having said that though, it can be a grand affair if you want it to be. This room is all about the statement lighting.
Of course, you don't have to go for something modern and edgy. This traditional Moroccan pendant light is stunning, and easily catches the attention.
Looking for a way to repurpose your used wine bottles? Then why not turn them into a unique chandelier?
These oversized copper light shades make a strong visual design statement within the space.
Wicker isn't just for chairs and baskets you know. The material can also be used to create some lovely light shades.
These large glass globe pendant lights are a sophisticated way to add statement lighting to your home.

Most psychology topics deal with dysfunction or mental illness, and it can take a toll on how we feel about the state of human life and question the intentions of people. However, the burgeoning field of positive psychology explores what makes life worth living, which can be a radical inspiration in the midst of this crazy/beautiful life.
There are many things that the science of positive psychology has taught the world since its introduction just over a decade ago, such as that most people are happy and resilient and that strong relationships are critical to one's sense of happiness, but perhaps the most significant one is that the good life can be taught. It is not by fate or genetics that people become happy. Happiness and feeling satisfied in one's life truly is a journey that must be discovered through trial and error, of break ups and make ups, of reading and learning and experiencing all that life has to offer. So how can this scientific breakthrough help your life?
Don't be afraid to take risks and experiment. Grow out of your comfort zone and do something a little bit crazy. Explore a new city or town, meet a new friend, try a new dish. Take a class you would never have thought to take, read a book in a genre you thought you'd hate. Try a new exercise, a new fruit, make a recipe from scratch. Bake vegan brownies. Browse around Wikipedia and learn something new. Discover new heroes and inspirational figures. Watch the sunrise, watch the sunset. Learn a new sport, learn a new language. Try a new hobby. Try painting. The ideas are endless.
Keep your mind flexible by always reading and learning something new. Read a new blog article per day (such as this one) or a new chapter in an inspiring book. And keep your heart full by nourishing your relationships with your family, friends, and significant other. Give hugs and kisses, and talk on the phone and in person. Have deep, meaningful conversations.
Think about the positives, not the negatives. Whenever you catch yourself thinking a negative thought about yourself, catch it and re-write it in your mind so that it states something positive. Review an affirmation everyday and read your goals to keep your vision in your mind. Free write every morning in a journal and get out all of that negative thought garbage out of your head and literally rip up the page and throw it away. On a new page, write 10 things you love about yourself and 10 things you could do today to work towards your goals on improving yourself.
Think of your goals in a positive light, not negative one by stating that you wish to achieve financial abundance, not to get out of debt. Work out everyday to become a healthy, thin person instead of losing weight. Say that you want to only put healthy things in your mouth, don't say that you want to stop eating junk food or drinking alcohol. Think of what to replace in your life, not what to get rid of, which usually has a negative connotation. Think back to operant conditioning, where the positive reinforcement system is better than a negative punishment. Think of giving yourself positive things in your life to increase good behaviors, rather than thinking of always adding punishment or decreasing good things to decrease bad behaviors. Not only will this way of thinking help you think of life as more satisfying and positive, but it also tells you more clearly what kind of life you are after, and not what you are not after.

I spoke briefly with Sarah Moshman about her brain child 'The Empowerment Project'.
Before we get started let me share some insight one entrepreneur to another.
There is something that all entrepreneurs have in common.
Our ideas and thoughts may vary dramatically, but there will and always will be a consistent feeling. "Frustration".
It is that moment of frustration as an entrepreneur that you need to hold on to in order to make the impact you wish to make to get the results you desire. That's your edge, that's your passion.
When I shared with Sarah how Wear Your Voice came about she expressed the same annoyance and frustration and rather than sit back and do nothing, she took action.
"This project came from a frustration similar to yours about the media, and feeling like I had the skills to make content that is positive, uplifting, and inspiring for women of all ages. I dropped everything a year a half ago to make this dream come true. That included a 60 day kickstarter where we raised $28,590, months of pre-production, a month on the road driving over 7,000 miles to interview 17 different incredibly strong career women and then 6+ months in post production completing it about 2 months ago. It has been an incredibly empowering experience for me as a woman and as a filmmaker that I am thrilled we are starting to empower others through viewing this documentary. It's a movement!"
It doesn't stop here with this amazing woman, stay tuned for an interview.
Wear Your Voice will be at The New Parkway Theatre tonight, Thursday July 17th, capturing every moment! Camp Reel Stories invites you to attend the Bay Area Premiere of "The Empowerment Project" at the The New Parkway Theater. WYV will be there capturing every moment of a woman empowered!
$10 at the door
Here is a little something to get your imagination going and your curiosity spiked!

Message to Deekshaites
Students' Corner | 21-Feb-2015
By IC Desk @ Deeksha
Dear Deekshaite,
It's that time of the year – scrambling for the books, clarifying doubts from the teachers, connecting with friends to learn more and almost letting go of all entertainment in an attempt to reach the top!
Jim Carrey wrote out a $10 million check to himself "for acting services rendered" way before he became a well-known movie star. He dated the check 5 years in advance and when 5 years had passed, he had surpassed that amount of earnings by $10 million per movie. Setting the goal and the willingness to put in adequate (hmmm, that little extra too!!!) efforts to achieve the goal is the way to go!
Having said that, maturity is all about preparing to face any outcome, with the understanding that the only thing in our control is the right amount of effort at the right time! Life presents its own opportunities to each of us – in its own course. There is a billionaire out there who has not completed secondary education. Thus, all that is required of us is to stick it out. And sure enough, we will find our way – though it might be very different from what we set out for! If you can take a break, don't miss out watching this 14 minute video of Steve Jobs at Stanford…
All the very best in your preparation – we will continue to be in touch with you. And should you feel low, do connect with us – we will try to bring that smile back on your face:

The chemical dissected in the "abortion pill" has been found to impede the initiation of exocrine gland tumors caused by the change cistron amenable for the bulk of breast and gonad cancers, a fleet of scientists from UC Irvine reported.
The key compound, certain as mifepristone, prevented breast tumors by inhibiting the productivity of progesterone. progestin is a hormone involved in the feminine fruitful cycle which is saved in the tissues of the body part. The finding may interested up more, and far more appetising options for women who have a transmissible sensitivity to nascent breast and female internal reproductive organ cancers. Currently, the typical bar modus operandi relies on the surgical expurgation of breasts or ovaries for the majority of these women.
The enquiry is published in the December 1 mental object of Science.
"We found that progestogen acting a part in the fruition of body part cancer by hortative the maturation of duct gland cells that transportation a body part malignant tumor gene," said Eva Lee, the study's atomic number 82 novelist and a academic of organic process and compartment life science and biologic natural science at UCI. "Mifepristone can traffic jam that riposte.

In the study, Lee and her colleagues self-addressed how mifepristone affects the practicality of mutated genes named BRCA-1 genes. This lot of mutated genes is wide deliberate by malignant neoplasm researchers because a mutated interpretation of this sequence by far contributes to the fruition of body part and female internal reproductive organ cancers. By the age of 70, more than 50 percentage of women near the mutated BRCA-1 cistron advance these cancers.
The researchers unnatural mice that controlled the mutated BRCA-1 cistron. Mice activated next to mifepristone, an anti-progesterone compound, did not hone exocrine gland tumors after 12 months. All of the unprocessed mice developed tumors by eight months of age.

UCI researchers found that progesterone encourages the increase of metastatic tumor once the mutated BRCA-1 is exists because it increases the rate of cell division. Mifepristone, they discovered, impenetrable a unalterable practice that is needful for progestin to motive the cells to disconnect.

The Llandaff Open Doors visitors view the CSAD Masters show.
Cardiff Metropolitan University recently showcased its purpose-built £14 million School of Art and Design building as part of Llandaff 'Open Doors'.
Organised by Cadw, the Welsh Government's historic environment service, Open Doors offers both local people and visitors alike the chance to explore the hidden treasures of Wales' culture and history.
Cardiff School of Art and Design welcomed a number of visitors to a unique behind-the-scenes look at its new base in Llandaff which is home to 1,200 undergraduate and postgraduate students.
The visitors viewed this year's Masters and Inc Space shows – which showcased the work of graduating Masters students from: MA Art & Design; MA Ceramics; Master of Design; Master of Fine Art; and MSc Advanced Product Design.
The Inc Space show highlighted the work created by recent graduates who have taken advantage of the School's incubation unit, 'Inc. Space', which provides an opportunity to spend an additional year with the School to launch their own business or a sustainable career as a practicing artist or designer.
In addition to the shows, the Open Doors tour looked behind the scenes at the School's highly successful MIT-accredited FabLab. Short for 'fabrication laboratory', this facility is linked to a Massachusetts Institute of Technology network of global FabLabs, and is equipped with technologies for 3D printing, laser cutting, vinyl plotting, electronics and programing. The Cardiff FabLab recently hit the headlines with the production of a low-cost prosthetic hand which it 3D printed for a five-year-old Cardiff school boy.
Dean of Cardiff School of Art & Design, Professor Olwen Moseley said:
"We were delighted to take part in this year's Llandaff Open Doors and host a tour of our new home.
"As a working School of Art and Design it's hugely important that local community members and visitors alike get to see our range of facilities and get a better understanding of the high-quality teaching and research that is carried out here every day."
The Llandaff Open Doors programme included tours of BBC Cymru Wales broadcasting house, Howell's School and Llandaff Cathedral.

GPS trackers are always interesting because they're so versatile. Location-based services have exploded in the last couple of years, and are poised for more growth as we get further into the 2010's. At the heart of all of these services is a GPS tracker, and a method of transmitting position data to a server, where a provider (or hacker) can do something useful with it.
Tag Archives: kickstarter
Arduino open source tracking device leverages Kickstarter
A new Kickstarter project aims to provide a low-cost, open source platform for building a GPS tracking device. The author, Wayne Truchsess of DSS Circuits, explains that a few years back, his brother in law had a PS3 stolen during a long power outage in the depths of winter. Not wanting to repeat history, Wayne bought a fake PS3 case on eBay and developed his own prototype position tracker to put inside it.
The tracker consists of a GSM cellular modem, a GPS unit, and an accelerometer, all tied to an Arduino and a LiPo battery to provide brains and power, respectively. Normally, the device lies in wait, asleep to save power. If it detects motion, it turns on the modem and alerts a preconfigured phone number via SMS. The owner can then respond with various commands to turn position tracking on or put the device back to sleep.

Yes, we know it doesn't matter because Ben & Mario have got our backs at whatever multiple is required to levitate the economy market, but as Citi's credit desk points out; despite the constant chatter about EPS beats (despite top-line misses), the trick is that analysts have been dragging down expectations since the earnings-cycle began and so judging 'misses' must be done against a 'frozen' pre-earnings number. If we do this 'fair' approach to considering expectations, the percentage miss in the S&P 500's EPS for Q2 2012 is as bad as the Q2/Q3 2011 Tsunami-driven miss - and the worst we have seen since Lehman Brothers shuffled off this mortal coil. So as usual, be careful what truth you believe and consider just how much more 'hope' is now in this market given this reality.
Citi Credit Weekly
Undoubtedly, part of the reason that Spain and Greece have come back into focus is that the earnings of US companies continue to be so uneven. With more than half of S&P500 companies having reported, we're only now starting to get the full picture, and viewed from the top down perspective it's far less pretty than even last week led us to believe. Relative to expectations, top line revenues have been especially weak, with nearly all sectors surprising to the downside, even as EPS and EBITDA have tended to beat.
But even those sorts of statistics tend to hide the true weakness because equity analysts tend to revise expectations down while earnings season is still ongoing, which explains why some 72% of S&P500 companies manage to beat expectations in a weak quarter.
To get a truer picture of the magnitude of disappointment, it's necessary to freeze estimates prior to the start of earnings season, so that those companies reporting later don't get the benefit of having the bar set lower by the early reporters. And viewed this way, we see that earnings surprises have been about as bad as the third quarter of 2011, which were impacted by the Japanese earthquake and the debt ceiling debate.

This part of the doll project developed inside the cottage on a day when the weather was extremely poor. By the window there was some small ornaments of castles, cottages etc.
We decided it would be kind of interesting to develop a story around these ornaments with the figurines. Luckily one of the dolls had a suit on; this was perfect for the role of the estate agent.
My Mum and I tested out different angles and poses. I also experimented with focus, this worked well on the final images.

About us
mts – the wetlab company GmbH is a service enterprise which focuses on the provision and organization of microsurgical training academies for ophthalmologists – wet laboratories, short wetlabs. The acronym mts in this context stands for microsurgical training systems. A wetlab can be defined as an assemblage of working stations for ophthalmologists to practice and perfect, under laboratory conditions, the skills and techniques employed in ophthalmic surgery and to make themselves familiar, in an environment optimized for learning, with new products offered by the industry.
Although we cover the full spectrum of ophthalmic services, we are not restricted to these alone. We have been offering our services to neurologists, veterinary surgeons, as well as surgeons from other medical fields. We are competent, with the help of a full range of microscopes and monitors, to assist any wetlab requirements in the medical field. We also provide drylab technologies, work with cochlear implants (CI) and all other technical tools for medical education.
Our goal is to provide the highest-quality service and equipment for ophthalmic education. mts – the wetlab company GmbH is proud of its team of friendly, helpful and well educated professionals always happy to support our partners, participants and instructors.
All the members of our staff are trained intensively on a regular basis by surgeons and industry partners alike to be able to assist our clients with all their knowledge and skills and be helpful wherever they can. This way our team, in close cooperation with our partners in the industry, ensures that all participants attain the high goals of each of our educational event.
Since its founding in 1996, mts – the wetlab company GmbH and its team have helped redefine the meaning of ophthalmic education, guaranteeing first-class standards for wetlab activities worldwide. mts – the wetlab company GmbH was incorporated by Karlheinz Hannig as managing director. Originally based in Innsbruck, Austria, it was transformed into a limited liability company in October 2013, and moved to Oetztal Bahnhof, Austria, in August 2015.
In 2014 we established our partner company eyecre.at GmbH. The motivation behind this step once more was our endeavor to run our wetlabs not only to the highest possible standards, but also to be innovative. The products required to achieve the latter end were not available on the market at the time. Thus, eyecre.at specializes in the development and production of just such products, like artificial eyes, which not only come as healthy artificial eyes but are also partially provided with injuries and other deliberately implemented abnormalities in order to help young ophthalmologists operate such circumstances under laboratory conditions.
With a strong focus on practical hands-on surgical training, mts – the wetlab company GmbH has continuously extended its services over the years. We are continuously creating new approaches to our activities, and are inspired by our primary goal of offering the best ophthalmic education. We incorporate modern equipment and techniques, while keeping the essence of classical methods. Now mts – the wetlab company GmbH offers wetlab services for companies as well as for ophthalmic societies worldwide. Currently, we are in a position to provide over 70 fully equipped wetlab stations for different surgical topics at any one time, and of managing about 150 wetlabs a year. Among our customers there are international congress organizations, universities and clinics, as well as pharmaceutical companies around the world who hire mts – the wetlab company GmbH for the setting-up, equipping and organizing of wetlabs. We also hold our own wetlab academies at least three times a year.
mts – the wetlab company GmbH strives to adapt all new technologies to offer the most realistic training facilities worldwide. We provide the services for your event, no matter what size it is!

I've got a whole load of online tools and apps saved in my bookmarks, so I thought I would share a handful of my favourites here. Some of these do very simple things, but they save so much time during the development process, or save me from remembering the exact way to do things.
This tool creates all the different types of favicon and website icons a modern website needs. No longer do you just need a simple 16px ico file on your site, and with Iconogen you just upload an image and it outputs the code and files you need.
My tip: When putting the code into a WordPress template header file, you can use
<?php echo get_bloginfo('template_directory');?> in the image
href to grab the images from your theme directory.
The author of Iconogen has also created a few other neat tools which you can find by clicking their names, top right on the Iconogen site.
The Underscores site will generate a starter theme for WordPress that you can create a custom design on top of – you just need to put in your theme name & a few other details you might want to set, and it outputs a zip file of a complete theme that can be uploaded straight to WordPress and customised from there. It isn't designed to be used as a parent theme, and is very SEO friendly out of the box.
I build almost all of my WordPress themes using Underscores, and you can end up with vastly different sites all beginning from this starter theme.
Really useful for generating badge codes, etc – this tool will convert symbols like
< into their html entities so that you can share them within posts.
These are two brilliant sites by the same development team, that compress image files for use on the web, without any compromise on image quality. It's like magic! It often reduces the sort of images I work with by around 70%, which can really speed up a site.
Also, pandas!
WordPress functions.php Snippets
Another WordPress-centric one, this site is full of snippets of code that you can add to your WordPress functions.php file to add extra functionality to a WordPress site. Some of these are included in the Underscores theme files by default, but there are some nice extra bits in here too.
My third WordPress tool is this set of test data for designing and developing WordPress sites. It will test your theme to the limit and try it's best to break it, so you can make sure your theme is ready for all eventualities. I used to use the "official" WP test theme data, but this is basically an enhanced (and a bit more humorous) version of that.
This is a webfont comprised entirely of icons, that you can embed in your site and use whenever you need an icon. They have all of the most popular social networks and anything you might need for an ecommerce shop or business site. It saves you having to make and embed lots of teeny tiny icon image files all over the shop, and you can use css to change the colour of the icons really quickly and easily.
Grab pre-made font stacks for all the most common fonts, so that your design deprecates as gracefully as possible if the first choice font isn't available on the user's computer. This is really useful when you're using a font that isn't fully "web safe" but also isn't available as a webfont.

To get rid of water bugs, remove clutter, clean the house, set bait traps, place boric acid near the nest and seal all potential points of entry. Contact a pest control specialist for severe infestations.
- Clean the area
Water bugs hide and live in cluttered areas. Move furniture and kitchen items around, and remove any debris. Use cleaning products to thoroughly clean all counter tops, floors and surfaces.
- Set bait traps
Go to a hardware or home goods store, and purchase cockroach bait. To prevent contamination in a home, buy sealed bait with contained poison. When the water bug brings the bait back to its nest, the other water bugs eat the insecticides.
- Sprinkle boric acid near the nest
If you know where the water bugs are coming from, sprinkle a fine dusting of boric acid on the ground near the area. When the water bugs walk on the powder, it is absorbed through their legs and antennae, exterminating them. A mixture of equal parts sugar and baking soda also works.
- Seal entry points
Check the home for cracks or crevices in the wall, broken screens and loose window sills that can serve as entry points. Use caulk to seal cracks, and replace or repair window screens.

President Barack Obama called for the rapid development of diagnostics, vaccines, and treatments for the Zika virus, which poses a growing threat to most of the Americas.
Obama was briefed on the topic as the virus spread to more countries and territories, including the US Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. People with the virus have also been identified in multiple US states after traveling to infected areas.
"The president emphasized the need to accelerate research efforts to make available better diagnostic tests, to develop vaccines and therapeutics, and to ensure that all Americans have information about the Zika virus," the White House said.
The Zika virus is primarily transmitted by Aedes aegypti, the type of mosquito responsible for spreading dengue, yellow fever, and numerous other infectious tropical diseases. The mosquitoes pick up the virus from infected people, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
There is no vaccine or treatment for Zika, partially because it didn't become a widespread problem until about 10 years ago. The virus is difficult to diagnose because people who are infected have fairly minor symptoms like fever, rash, painful joints, and pink eye, though some short-term neurological conditions have been connected with the disease as well. It's the troublesome connection between infected pregnant women and an increased incidence of birth defects that makes containing the Zika virus a top priority.
Brazil, one of the areas hit hardest by the disease, had about 20 times as many babies born with a condition called microcephaly in 2015 as it did in 2014. This birth defect, in which the brain is abnormally small, was often found in children of mothers who had symptoms associated with the Zika virus early in the pregnancy.
Researchers still aren't sure whether the virus causes birth defects, but there does appear to be a link. Early last week, the CDC issued interim guidelines for pregnant women traveling to countries where the disease is being transmitted, while several countries including El Salvador have gone as far as to advise citizens not to get pregnant.
While few treatments or vaccines are in development, companies are jumping on board to find possible ways to fight back against a possible epidemic. Others are trying to target the mosquito itself to keep the disease from spreading, but it might be a while before those efforts are widely spread.
