A NORTH-EAST woman is calling on a big name entrepreneur to step forward and save one of the region's most unusual attractions.
Lily Zaher, from Middlesbrough, was left shocked and dismayed when the town's Nature's World attraction closed its gates in January after suffering funding issues.
Mrs Zaher – who held a season ticket for the attraction – is now launching a campaign to see it re-opened and is appealing to generous benefactors to come forward and support the project.

She said: "I am looking for a few key figures to support the situation and highlight it.
"I'm trying to appeal to anyone, individuals or business owners who could take over and offer funding to improve the site and reopen it. It can be anybody who would take care of it for the community.
"If communities and businesses got behind us to try and get it off the ground again, it would be great.
"Nature's World could really do with the help, it was an important part of the community and it is a real shame to lose it. There is nothing else like it locally."
The pioneering eco-project was the only one of its kind in the region and featured many eco-friendly attractions, including a £2m tropical greenhouse, eco-centre and a hydroponicum facility where plants were grown without soil.
The facility, which hosted thousands of visitors a year and was also home to several small businesses, was forced to close due to funding issues. The site and its assets have now been passed to Middlesbrough Council.
A spokesman from the council said it would be undertaking a detailed assessment of the site to consider the social need and its future use.
He also confirmed that there was a "desire to see, under new ownership, the continuance of an environmental visitors centre and educational facility from the site."

This application is a 371 of PCT/GB98/03043 filed Oct. 12, 1998.
This invention concerns a process for preparing cyclopropylethyne as well as a process for preparing intermediates for making cyclopropylethyne.
Cyclopropylethyne is used, for example, as an intermediate in the synthesis of the important HIV reverse transcriptase inhibitor of the following structure:
There are two main syntheses for cyclopropylethyne already disclosed in the literature. These are:
1. Chlorination of cyclopropyl methyl ketone with phosphorus pentachloride to give 1,1-dichloro-1-cyclopropylethane followed by dehydrochlorination with a strong base
2. Reaction of 5-chloro-1-pentyne with 2 equivalents of butyl lithium to effect cyclisation.
Whilst these methods work well on a laboratory scale, manufacture on a production scale is difficult. The intermediate, 1,1-dichloro-1-cyclopropylethane produced in the first literature route is a very labile molecule and is thermally and hydrolytically unstable. For example, whilst chlorination of cyclopropyl methyl ketone with phosphorus pentachloride proceeds quite well even on a large scale, the isolation of the 1,1-dichloro-1-cyclopropylethane from the reaction mixture (which necessarily contains phosphorus oxychloride) can lead to extensive decomposition of the product. The phosphorus oxychloride may be removed by decomposition with water. Such a process is very exothermic and unless the reaction mixture is kept cool the product is decomposed by both aqueous acids and alkalis. The cooling requirements on a plant scale would be enormous. This leads to a very high capital investment in plant. If the feed time is extended to overcome the deficiencies in the cooling systems, decomposition also occurs and leads to very low yields of the target compound.
It is also possible to remove the phosphorus oxychloride by fractional distillation. However, in a conventional pot still, extensive decomposition due to ring opening can occur resulting in low yields.
Once the required 1,1-dichloro-1-cyclopropylethane has been obtained in a pure form, dehydrochlorination to give the required compound can also lead to problems. As stated above, the compound is both thermally unstable and also unstable to alkalis. Thus to effect dehyrochlorination, a hindered base in a dipolar aprotic solvent is required so that elimination rather than substitution is the major synthetic pathway. Because of the stoichiometry of the process at least two equivalents of expensive base are required. This seriously increases the cost of manufacture.
The method of manufacture where 5-chloro-1-pentyne is ring closed by means of at least 2 equivalents of n-butyl lithium also works quite well in the laboratory. However, the cost of n-butyl lithium makes manufacture by this route an expensive option. Furthermore, specialised plant is required to handle the pyrophoric concentrated solutions that an efficient synthesis dictates.
WO98/40333A (BASF Aktiengesellschaft) discloses a process for halogenating cyclopropylmethyl ketone with at least one dihalogen triorganophosphorane as well as a process for converting the halogenated cyclopropyl methyl ketone into cyclopropylacetylene.
A first object of this invention is to provide a process for preparing an intermediate for preparation of cyclopropylethyne, which is both thermally and hydrolytically stable and does not involve use of expensive pyrophoric reagents.
A second object of this invention is to provide an improved process for preparing cyclopropylethyne.
It has been surprisingly found that a suitable intermediate for use in preparing cyclopropylethyne is 1-chloro-1-cyclopropylethene.
According to a first aspect of this invention there is provided a process for preparing 1-chloro-1-cyclopropylethene comprising treating 1-cyclopropylethanone with dichlorotriaryl phosphorane or dichlorotriakyl phosphorane in the presence of a base in an inert solvent characterised in that the base is a tertiary amine.
According to a second aspect of this invention there is provided a process for preparing cyclopropylethyne comprising the steps of preparing 1-chloro-1-cyclopropylethene by chlorinating 1-cyclopropylethanone with dichlorotriarylphosphorane or dichlorotriakylphosphorane in the presence of a base in an inert solvent and dehydrochlorinating the 1-chloro-1-cyclopropylethene with a strong base in an inert solvent, characterised in that the base in the chlorination stage is a tertiary amine.
The 1-chloro-1-cyclopropylethene used in the process of the second aspect of the invention may be that prepared by the process of the first aspect of the invention.
A benefit of using 1-chloro-1-cyclopropylethene is that, in principle, only one equivalent of strong base is required to bring about the dehydrochlorination. Furthermore, this base does not need to be an expensive alkali metal salt of a hindered tertiary alcohol. Simple hydroxides of alkali metals will suffice to bring about the transformation. The literature indicates that this intermediate may be prepared in reasonable yield by the mono-dehydrochlorination of 1,1-dichloro-1-cyclopropylethane; an intermediate which has already been stated to be difficult to manufacture on a large scale. A better synthesis of 1-chloro-1-cyclopropylethene was therefore sought.
It is known that acetyl ketones will react with dichlorotriphenylphosphorane to afford the corresponding gem dichlorides. (U.S. Pat. No. 3,715,407). The reaction in the case of cyclopropyl methyl ketone has the complication that the cyclopropane ring is ruptured during the course of the reaction with the formation of compounds which were identified as dichloropentenes. It was considered that these by-products were formed by adventitious hydrogen chloride in the reaction mixture and that the inclusion of an organic base would prevent this side reaction occuring. When this experiment was carried out, the amount of ring opened dichloropentenes was greatly reduced from an experiment which did not contain base. We were surprised to find that only minor amounts of 1,1-dichloro-1-cyclopropylethane were formed but that 1-chloro-1-cyclopropylethene was formed in good yield. Furthermore, the amount of ring opened dichloropentenes were greatly reduced from an experiment which did not contain base. A convenient synthesis of the desired intermediate was thus opened to us.
wherein R is an aryl group or an alkyl group.
The dichlorothiarysphohranes or the dichlorotrialkylphosphoranes may be prepared by reaction of the appropriate triarylphosphine or triarylphosphine oxide or trialkylphosphine or trialkylphosphine oxide with a chlorinating agent such as chlorine or phosgene. The chlorination stage may be carried out catalytically in situ particularly if phosgene is used. 1-100 mol % of trisubstituted phosphine or its oxide may be used. Less than 25 mol % of triarylphosphine or its oxide or trialkylphosphine or its oxide may be sufficient to bring about the transformation with 1-10 mol %, more preferably about 6 mol %, being close to the optimum in terms of yield and reaction velocity.
The organic base that is required for good reaction can be any base which does not react with phosgene or dichlorotriarylphosphorane or dichlorotrialkylphosphorane. In practice this means that tertiary amines are probably most suitable as the organic base. Pyridine and quinoline are particularly suitable since they appear to be inert to the phosgenation reaction conditions. Other tertiary amines such as triethylamine which may be used are less suitable since they can preferentially react with phosgene under the reaction conditions to give carcinogenic carbamoyl chlorides such as diethyl carbamoyl chloride. The production of even minor amounts of such carcinogens precludes the use of such tertiary amines in large scale manufacture.
As already described the thermal and hydrolytic stability of 1-chloro-1-cyclopropylethene is much greater than 1,1-dichloro-1-cyclopropylethane. This means that the work-up of the product is much simpler. The product may be distilled directly from the reaction mixture or quenched on to aqueous alkali and then phase separated from the aqueous layer and the organic phase fractionated. Due to formation of molar quantities of amine hydrochloride, it is necessary to use a solvent to provide mobility for the reaction. Almost any solvent which does not react under the reaction conditions may be used but it is most convenient to use one of sufficiently different boiling point which does not interfere with the distillation of the product, 1-chloro-1-cyclopropylethene, from the reaction mixture. Aromatic solvents, especially high boiling aromatic solvents are particularly useful since the reactants are soluble in these solvents and the distillation of the product from them is easy. 1,2-Dichlorobenzene is particularly usefull as a solvent.
The reaction is conveniently carried out in a temperature range of ambient, say, around 20� C., to about 100� C. At lower temperatures the reaction rate is such that the synthesis cannot be carried out in a reasonable time. At higher temperatures by-products begin to be formed with the concomitant reduction in yield. The optimum temperature in terms of reaction rate and specificity appears to be between 40� C. and 90� C., more preferably 70� C. to 80� C.
Dehydrochlorination of 1-chloro-1-cyclopropylethene can be effected with strong bases in a suitable solvent, for example any alcohol. Such strong bases are the alkali metal salts of hindered tertiary alcohols, alkali or alkaline earth hydroxides or the "super-bases". Examples of these bases are sodium or potassium t-butoxide, sodium or potassium hydroxide or 2,3,4,6,7,8,9,10-octahydropyrimido[1,2-a]azepine. Particularly useful are the alkali metal hydroxides with sodium hydroxide being very advantageous.
The solvent for the dehydrochlorination can be almost any solvent which does not react under the basic, hydrolytic conditions. Dipolar protic or aprotic solvents such as dimethyl sulphoxide are useful as solvent as are high boiling alcohols such as ethylene glycol. The temperature is not critical to the outcome of the reaction. The temperature is preferably in the range of ambient temperature to 100� C., preferably 55� C. to 65� C. Temperatures of about 60� C. appear to be satisfactory in terms of reaction rate. At the end of the reaction time, the product, cyclopropylacetylene, is isolated by simple ionation from the reaction mixture.
This invention will now be further described by means of the following Examples
Gaseous phosgene (480 g, 4.85 mol) was passed into a sired solution of cyclopropyl methyl ketone (336 g, 4.0 mol), triphenylphosphine oxide (68 g, 0.25 mol) and quinoline (774 g, 6.0 mol) in 1,2-dichlorobenzene (280 cm3) over a period of 6 to 7 hours at 70� C. to 80� C. An exothermic reaction occurred, carbon dioxide gas was evolved, and the reaction mixture gradually darkened to form a very dark mobile slurry. On completion of phosgene addition, the reaction mixture was warmed to 90� C. and then stirred at 90� C. to 100� C. for a further 5 hours to complete the reaction. The mixture was then cooled to 75� C. and the product, 1-chloro-1-cyclopropylethene removed by flash distillation by applying a vacuum of about 80 mm Hg.
The distillate, containing small amounts of dichloropentenes, 1,2-dichlorobenzene and quinoline was fractionated through a short fractionating column. 1-Chloro-1-cyclopropylethene (223 g, 54.7%) was obtained in >97% assay of bp 95� C. to 99� C.
1-chloro-1-cyclopropylethene prepared in accordance with Example 1 (102 g, 1.0 mol) was fed into a stirred slurry of sodium hydroxide (80 g, 2.0 mol) in dimethyl sulphoxide (255 cm3) containing a little water at 60� C. On completion of the addition, the reaction mixture was stirred for a further 10 hours at 60� C. to ensure complete reaction. On completion of the reaction the product was removed by distillation at atmospheric pressure, bp 57� C. to 62� C. The yield was 59.4 g (87.3%) with a purity of >98%.

The non-native American grey squirrel causes an incredible amount of
damage annually to deciduous trees, the fabric of buildings and food
supplies and storage. The grey squirrel is also a very real threat to
our native wildlife, birds, their chicks and eggs all get predated and
the UK's native red squirrel is now restricted to a few isolated areas.
Bark stripping of trees can begin as early as February and this is a
prime time for control to take place, most importantly, the squirrel
The rabbits main breeding season is
January to July, with an average of 5 per litter the females are able to
breed at 3-4 months so it is easy to see how a small problem can
escalate if left unchecked. Rabbits damage trees, gardens and crops, the
burrows in their warrens can undermine trees and buildings and their
latrine scrapes damage the ground.
Operating within a 20 mile radius of Cirencester, mole control may be required on a variety of premises including: * Private gardens * Smallholdings and allotments * Farms and estates * Equine establishments * Golf Courses and sports fields * Airfields * Stately homes and hotels * Churchyards and cemeteries * Holiday and caravan parks * School and college grounds * Residential care homes

Integrated Medical Video from Brandon Medical
Brandon Medical have announced the launch of new theatre camera suite to complement their new flat-screen monitors and medical video cameras.
This software allows the entire theatre camera system to operate over a hospitals existing communications network removing the need for expensive stand-alone equipment. The video feed uses video-over-IP technology (the same protocols used to transfer information over the internet) combined with advanced MPEG4 compression to provide high quality images.
The software itself is designed to run on any standard Windows PC. The split-screen view option allows a surgeon to monitor video feeds from every camera in the theatre simultaneously as well as re-winding certain feeds and playing them back in real-time. This allows you to monitor the live feed whilst also looking at what has happened previously.
The feeds from this software can all be made available over the hospital intranet. Senior surgeons can monitor procedures from anywhere using this system, they can even dial into the intranet from an external location if necessary. These surgeons can communicate with the operating team using the latest in-theatre microphones.
The new system also includes medical-grade dome cameras mounted in the theatre ceiling. This allows the movements of the entire operating team to be monitored and recorded alongside the other camera feeds.
As well as improving clinical monitoring and review this new system benefits teaching hospitals. The software is easily installable on a lecture theatre's PC, allowing the lecturer to show live procedures and to retrieve archived surgical procedures. All this can be done over standard IT networks using standard computer equipment.
This new approach to medical video makes it cost effective to provide medical video to all who want it.

Carefully cut basil leaves from the plant for immediate use, or dry and store them for later. Timing and cutting technique will encourage foliage growth and deter blossoming to give you more usable basil from the same plant. Add the power of fresh or dried basil to your cooking without harming your beautiful basil plant. Basil is a delicious gourmet touch you can be proud of, especially if you've grown it yourself.

Show MoreHide
- 1
Cut basil leaves from a plant for fresh use before the flower buds have begun to form. The best time of day to harvest is in the morning just after the dew has dried.
- 2
Select a healthy basil leaf from the top 10 to 15 cm (4 to 6 inches) of the plant and hold it gently by the stem.
- 3
Place your basket in position under the basil leaf to catch it when you cut it from the plant.
- 4
Make a clean cut with a sharp knife halfway down the base of the leaf's stem and allow it to fall into the basket below.
- 5
Continue collecting leaves in this manner until you have all that you need for a single recipe. The leaves will be ready for immediate use without washing unless they were grown using pesticides or toxins.
Fresh-use harvesting
- 1
After flower stalks have appeared on the basil plant and before they have blossomed is the time to harvest for dry preservation. At this stage more of the pungent essential oils have developed in the plant.
- 2
Gently hold a selected basil leaf chosen from above the bottom four sets of leaves and examine it for any defects or damage.
- 3
Hold the basket in place below the leaf and use a sharp knife to make a clean cut, severing the stem at its base to keep it attached to the leaf.
- 4
Harvest more basil leaves in this manner until you have filled your basket or have harvested all the healthy eligible leaves.
- 5
Leaves should be left to dry unstacked in a well-ventilated area then stored in sealed glass jars until use.

Pie Crusts - basic shells
Pie Crust Tips
There is nothing better than a tender, flaky pie crust to go with your favorite pie. Here are some of the pie crust "rules."
1. Always measure your ingredients when baking pies. In order for your crust to be tender, you should not use too much flour or water. If your shortening is not measured exactly, your crust may fall apart.
2. Do not overwork the dough. Handle it as little as possible. Stir your dry ingredients together, then cut-in shortening. I use 2 table knives, but if you have a pastry blender, that will work, too.
3. Add 1 Tablespoon water at a time and toss it gently, then add another Tablespoon and toss, etc.
4. When rolling out your crust, use flour on the rolling pin and a little flour on the surface, to prevent sticking. I usually roll it out on parchment paper and just lightly flour the paper.
5. Roll your crust from the center to the edges until you have an even thickness. Make the circle larger than your pie plate and cut off the excess after you place it in the plate. Do not stretch the dough to fit or it will shrink when baking.
6. My pie plates are glass because I think the crust browns better, but you can use metal if you prefer. Dull metal pans retain the heat better than shiny pans. Shiny pans are better for crumb crusts, like graham cracker.
7. Always pre-heat your oven before baking to avoid soggy crusts.
Basic Pie Crust - Single-crust
The trend today is to make tarts rather than pie. That's o.k., too. The traditional way is to use all-purpose flour, salt, shortening and cold water. Another basic crust is to melt butter until it browns, then chill it until it is solid, then use it as shortening. Everything is done by hand.
You can use a food processor by adding flour, salt and shortening to the bowl. Cover and pulse until it looks like cornmeal. Then add the water through the tube and process. The secret is not to process it too long, just until combined. Remove from bowl and shape into a ball. I still prefer the traditional method, but you can do whatever you prefer.
When making a single crust, after shell is in the plate, prick the bottom and sides of the crust with a fork before baking. This will prevent the crust from bubbling up and becoming uneven.
Pecan Pie, a one crust pie
Oil Pastry
If you don't like to roll out a basic crust, you can make an oil pastry crust. Use all-purpose flour, sugar and salt and mix it together. Then add canola oil and milk all at once to flour mixture. You do not have to roll this crust. You can just press it into the bottom of your pie plate and up the sides.
Double Crust Pies
When adding a top crust, cut slits to allow steam to escape. Trim top crust and fold under bottom crust. Then pinch the edge of crusts together.
If you prefer, you can make a lattice top crust by rolling out the top crust and then cutting strips that can be woven for a fancy top.
Lattice-top Crust
Chocolate No-Bake Crust and Graham Cracker Crust
No-bake Pie Crusts
Graham cracker crust, chocolate cookie crust and vanilla wafer crust are some of the crusts that do not have to be baked. Just melt butter, add crushed cookies or crackers and press into the bottom and sides of the pie plate. Chill and fill.

I have to bookmark this as that is my downfall - I can make a great crust but the only one that works is my lard one. I so want to get another crust in my toolbox that isn't made with lard - and maybe with these tips I can do it right!
I use to make my own pie crust. They really are pretty easy to do and so much cheaper than pre-made.
Thank you judydianne,for great pie crust hub, thank your for sharing. creativeone59
Beautiful hub and great tips!
Good hub. There is nothing like a buttery flaky pastry crust. This makes me hungry. Thanks for sharing. Teresa

Frances Fuller
In Lebanon, a country racked by war, the Fullers are house-hunting, because they have a job to do--- publishing Christian literature in the Arabic language. The house they find is mostly a heap of rocks, Frances thinks, but Wayne begins turning it into home. Meanwhile the Syrian occupation, an Israeli invasion, the bombing of the American Marines, artillery battles and kidnappings impact their lives. Their sense of purpose and relationships with courageous and resilient friends strengthen their resolve, while the little rock house becomes a haven, and powerful external forces threaten their mission.

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) — Former Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. was sentenced to 2 1/2 years in prison, after a tearful courtroom apology to his father and family for misusing $750,000 in campaign funds.
"I misled the American people. I misled the House of Representatives ... I was wrong and I don't fault anyone," Jackson told a packed federal courtroom in Washington, D.C.
Jackson wept openly as he talked about the pain he had caused his family, particularly his father, civil-rights leader Rev. Jesse Jackson.
"I also want to apologize to my dad and my mother," he said, breaking down. Watching from the spectator section of the courtroom, the Rev. Jesse Jackson shook his head and rubbed his eyes.
College sports could die off
To hear it from the NCAA, college athletics face a potential threat: a lawsuit brought by athletes seeking a share of NCAA revenues. Here's how most Division I schools would skirt catastrophe..
"I need to be as far away from everybody for a while as I can be," the younger Jackson said.
The former congressman had represented a Chicago district for more than a decade until his resignation last year over the Federal Bureau of Investigation probe of his finances.
At one point in the Wednesday's hearing he begged the judge to spare his wife, Sandi Jackson, any prison time. Sandi Jackson, a member of the Chicago City Council from 2007 till this January, had pled guilty to failure to report $600,000 in income. The Jacksons' sentences were staggered so that both parents of 9- and 13-year-old children would not be incarcerated simultaneously.

Every January, Joe Bardenheier accompanies his father Joe Bardenheier III, and two other U.S. based doctors, for two weeks to India to reopen a mission hospital left by the British in the 1900's. Free Surgical Camp, as it is known by the locals, is dedicated to "Changing Lives, One Person at a Time." Last year, in that short two-week period, the team conducted over 935 examinations and close to 300 surgeries for the poorest of the poor. Joe Jr. organizes the patient examination process, assists in the OR and also does a great deal of fundraising — helping the group to acquire a new operating room and much needed equipment while managing the website he built, freesurgicalcamp.com, on FatCow, an Endurance International Group brand.

DS has been admitted to U of Edinburgh (!!!), and he'll likely go to university there (we live in the U.S.). It may be just me taking DS to school, DH may not get the time off work. We're tentatively planning that DS and I will go early enough for several days of being tourists in the area before getting him settled into Edinburgh and the university.
After that, I'm thinking of taking a couple of days, maybe three nights, as I'll already be in Europe, to go somewhere on my own, just for me! It would need to be somewhere easy to get to via EasyJet or RyanAir from Edinburgh, then a direct flight to Frankfurt for the flight back to the U.S.
The easy option, very delightful, would be to spend time in a city I know and enjoy - Paris, Brussels (really) or Bologna are tops for this. But I'm also thinking of trying a city I've never been to (preferably somewhere DH has no interest in): Lisbon, Vilnius/Kaunas, Barcelona (which we've been to, but I loved more than DH), ????. We've been to most major cities in Italy, and a number in France and Spain, Belgium, Netherlands, Ireland, Czech Republic, Hungary, Austria, Germany, Switzerland. Not interested in the Germanic countries for this venture. DH is interested in Scandinavia, so I'll leave those out for now.
I love culture and museums, primarily art; history of most eras; and good regional food.
I'd love to hear any ideas or suggestions - I'm definitely having fun day-dreaming about the possibilities.

Scottish friends went to St Petersburg for an overnight. They live near Aberdeen, so I am not sure whether they flew from Edinburgh.
When we were at EDI the first of November, I know I saw planes leaving for Turkey and am virtually certain Warsaw as well.

Thanks. Yes, have been to London several times, I should have mentioned that; and that may be where DS and I play tourist. With DS in Scotland, I'm guessing we'll spend more time in the UK over the next several years, so I want to be a little more adventurous with this trip.
I've already made a list of RyanAir and EasyJet destinations, and have compared them to Frankfurt. Lufthansa flies almost everywhere, it seems, though some of cities don't work as well; the flight from Vilnius leaves for Frankfurt at 6 am or something like that. No Edinburgh flights to St. Petersburg - that would have been a great choice otherwise. Turkey, it's Dalaman, which didn't appeal to me. Warsaw is a possibility - though I'd love some suggestions of why it would be good destination.
Keep the ideas coming!
Report Abuse
I would say London too. It's a great city and has direct flights to everywhere you can imagine...

Somewhere in Italy.

Oops! Just saw Italy was on the list. Not sire how I missed it at first. Istanbul or Krakow would be my choices.

lincasanova - Istanbul isn't a destination for either RyanAir or Easyjet, and may be next year's big trip, which I'm very excited about. Krakow is a possibility - what can you tell me about it?

In France last year I heard about something called snowshoeing. Can you tell me exactly what it involves, and do any firms organise snowshoeing holidays?
J Smart
Jill Crawshaw replies: Snowshoeing - on what the French call raquettes - is becoming an increasingly popular alternative to downhill skiing, for several reasons. It is much cheaper and simpler - you strap a pair of lightweight snowshoes which look like the heads of large tennis rackets on to your walking boots, take poles only for balance, and set off. No complicated techniques or tuition are necessary.
It also enables you to get off the beaten piste even more than cross- country skiing, which means you have a chance of tracking wildlife which normally vanishes with the first arrival of the clumpy boots brigade. Many people also consider snowshoeing more environmentally friendly, reducing damage to pastures caused by mechanical lifts and beaten-down pistes, a continuing controversy in the Alps.
Headwater Holidays (01606 48699) can arrange independent shoeing trips to Autrans on the Vercors plateau above Grenoble, home of the French Nordic Championship. The firm also has two special snowshoeing weeks starting on 17 January and 28 February, with equipment provided and the services of a guide.
The January departure costs pounds 397 for eight days including the car ferry crossing for car and passengers (pounds 579 by air), guiding on the 26 kilometres of trails around the region, equipment, and half-board at the Hotel de la Poste. The week in February costs pounds 479 by car, pounds 658 by air.
Inntravel (01653 628811) arranges a fascinating snowshoe journey through the Pyrenees; you start in Font Romeu, walk over the lakes of Bouillouse at 2,000 metres (these are cut off from car traffic in the winter), stay in the tiny resort of Les Angles and then walk through the forest to La Llagonne, tracking animals en route. The price of pounds 598 includes return flights to Toulouse, picnic lunches, seven nights half board en route, hire of equipment and the services of an English-speaking mountain guide. Departures are on 17 and 31 January.

My boots are made for walking - but they're cracking
The leather is creasing and cracking on my walking boots. I usually brush mud off once the boots have dried - is this wrong? Don Walker, London
Clive Tully replies: If you can, you should remove the mud at the earliest possible opportunity. I always keep my eyes peeled for a stream or even a puddle at the end of a day's walk which I can slosh about in to get the worst of the mud off. You know why mud packs are so often used for skin care? It's because mud has good astringent qualities for sucking out natural oils. It does the same thing for dead cow skin as well.
Keeping your boots in a boiler room or heating cupboard isn't a very good idea, either, as any kind of artificially-induced drying is almost certain to damage the leather. The water soaked into the leather expands as it warms up and literally tears its fibrous structure apart from the inside because it can't vapourise and escape quickly enough. Cooked boots tend to lose their shape and get water-logged very quickly. As it is, the creasing and cracking on the uppers of your boots is an indication that the damage has already been done.
Even so, you should get some useful life out of them yet. Always wash the mud off your boots quickly and allow them to dry naturally. Putting them in a warm room is fine, but make sure they're away from any form of artificial heat, and preferably with some newspaper screwed up inside to help soak up excess moisture. Once they're dry, apply some shoe polish or a wax product such as G-Wax or Nikwax. Given the state of your boots, some extra loving care would be in order now - use Nikwax or Granger's leather conditioner.

I want to go somewhere with healthy food
Whenever I travel I always come back feeling fat and ill because of the food. Now I want to go on holiday to the country with the healthiest food in the world. What are the options?
Bob Hayita
Dr Larry Goodyer replies: A healthy diet would include a great deal of fruits and vegetables for fibre, with very little red meat. Energy should come from carbohydrates such as pasta and rice, with the minimum of simple sugars being consumed. Fats should be of the polyunsaturated variety. Fish, especially oily fish, is said to be good for the heart.
It is hard to find any national diet that matches these requirements exactly. A Mediterranean diet is said to be very healthy, but a high intake of olive oil would cause weight gain.
In South-east Asia and southern India the high-fibre diet seems healthy, but coconut is used widely; it is fattening and contains extensive saturated fats. The most unhealthy diet is probably the Anglo/American one.
Do get this into perspective: a few weeks of a relatively unhealthy diet will do little harm if you eat reasonably well the rest of the year. Most exotic foods will cause weight gain if you overeat. One of my aims when travelling is to sample as wide a variety of foods as possible, while heeding the usual warnings about things that carry a higher risk of gut infections.
Dr Larry Goodyer is superintendent of the Nomad Pharmacy (3-4 Turnpike Lane, London N8, Tel: 0181 889 7014) which specialises in travellers' medical needs.Reuse content

Member Spotlight
Personal BlackBox (PBB) is a New York City-based technology firm and a member of the Green Button Alliance.
PBB is a Corporation for Public Benefit - a corporate status that drives its commitment to the environment and society as a whole.
We are all about data and trust. PBB was founded by Haluk Kulin, former Global Brand Manager at Unilever for over a decade. Haluk saw the value of data to Unilever but also acknowledged that consumers were not necessarily seeing an individual and personal benefit to having their data used.
He considered: what if the consumer had a virtual "Black Box" where they could offer their data securely to brands in exchange for a benefit - money or offers for their engagement? He further considered: what if brands could gain more accurate data and develop a more-trusted relationship with their consumers?
What if an enterprise like an Energy firm, could share their consumers' data readily with them? What if in addition to this data share, valuable educational information could be shared to help them live a more-sustainable life?
These questions form the genesis for the PBB ecosystem platform - where consumers, energy firms and brands all gain benefit from data share, through our energy app called Greenr. The Greenr mobile app resides on the platform and enables the consumer to connect to their energy data and begin a series of consumer journeys that provide valuable information on how to live a more-sustainable life. Articles, blog posts, quizzes and surveys on the app all offer an engaging, enjoyable, and goal-oriented experience.
So how does each party in the ecosystem benefit? Consumers gain valuable information on how to live a more-sustainable life and earn offers and monetary rewards. Brands develop a more-trusting and accurate relationship with their consumers. Energy companies build more personalized relationships with their customers. PBB's ecosystem platform uniquely enables everyone - consumers, brands and energy companies - to benefit by sharing data in a trusted and secure manner!
PBB is a proud member of the Green Button Alliance and applauds their work to get energy data into the consumer's hands. Visit PBB at www.PBB.me. Follow PBB on Twitter at @PBBCompany.

IPA Fest
- Created on 08 March 2012
- Written by Kirbie
IPA Fest is still a month away and we're already freaking out around here. The logistics of pouring 60-70 different beers in three weeks are daunting, and every year it seems to get harder. We try and pour as many fun, interesting, and hard to find beers as we can but no matter how much planning and work we do, there's always going to be something we just couldn't get. Thanks Russian River :(
One of the problems is IPA's are best when fresh as possible, so storing them for months prior to the Fest is not ideal. But many beers are brewed only once a year and if we want to pour it, we've got to store it! This year we were a little lucky, as we've only had to sit on a few kegs, and none for more than a month. Fresh beer!
If you've never joined us for the Fest before, and you love IPA's, you're in for a treat. We commit 12-14 handles to IPA all through the month, with four blind taps for judging. There's always a good mix of regular and double/imperial IPA's too. So if you're not in the mood for a 10% hop bomb, there's still plenty to choose from. Food specials throughout the Fest are made specifically to pair with the bitter hoppiness of the beers, too.
Happy Hour and $1 off Thursdays are in effect all Fest long, so if you're looking for a way to save a couple bucks and try some great IPA's, plan accordingly.
Got Hops?
Harvest Beers
- Created on 08 October 2012
- Written by Kirbie
The hop harvest is here again and we couldn't be more excited! Each year brewers seem to get more adventurous using fresh hops and this year is no different. From old school harvest ales to fresh and wet hop IPA's, pales, and pilsners. And we're pouring them all! We will be pouring 15-20 of these brews throughout the month of October.
While most breweries take their hops straight to where they belong, IPA's, some take a much different tack. Lighter beers such as pilsner's and "session" ales popped up this year. They tend to show the more herbal and flower-y flavors of the hops. While IPA's and pales taste more like their year round counterparts, albeit with a much fresher and brighter hop profile.
Many breweries rush the hops straight from the farm to the kettle for the absolute freshest possible flavor. But the process breweries employ in using these fresh hops can differ quite a bit. They might use them every step of the way or at different times to impart a variety of different flavors and aromas. And the differences in the hop varities is even more pronounced when they are used fresh.
The hop harvest only happens once a year, so let's enjoy it while we can!
Summer Beers
- Created on 18 July 2012
- Written by Kirbie
The quest for the perfect summer pint can take a beer drinker in many different directions. Depending on what you drink the ten months of the year in Seattle it's not sunny, a great summer beer can come in many different styles.
For the IPA drinker, an overly hoppy beer doesn't always do the trick. Especially todays super bitter, almost sticky NW style IPA's. They can coat the tongue and aren't always real refreshing.
If you're a dark beer fan, there's something not quite satisfying about a porter or stout when it's 80 degrees outside. Most are "sipping" beers and not suited to sitting on a deck throwing down a few.
And if you're a lager/pilsner drinker, well you can probably just keep on drinking them.
A number of breweries make "summer beers", usually a blonde or alt style. Lighter bodied than most ales, but with more flavor than many pilsners, they hit a sweet spot between the two. They're generally unfiltered, but without a heavy mouthfeel that can entail. And they almost all have a clean, crisp finish with more hop character than most lagers.
And don't forget about ciders! If you've never tried a cider, or been reluctant to because of a previous bad experience (i.e. Hornsby's or (ugh) Mike's Hard Lemonade), don't despair. Many of those mass produced ciders are nothing like what's available today. And Mike's isn't even a "cider", it's a malted beverage.
British ciders are made from "cider apples" that are generally inedible, but make great cider. It's usually a little drier, and slightly bitterer, than others. And now a number of craft ciderworks are producing great, locally produced ciders. Made with Washington grown apples, they taste fantastic and are a great summertime option.
Whatever you decide to drink, there's no denying that nothing beats a cold beer, or cider, on a hot summer day.
