Recent reviews
Outstanding 4.7 /5 from 70 reviews
Good. Gym was perfect and concierge was very helpful.
Perfect in all respects
As always, the Four Seasons does not disappoint, we stayed for 6 days and enjoyed everything. The service, rooms, bedding and staff make your stay so enjoyable. Would stay there again and again.
The staff is absolutely fantastic at the Four Seasons in Lisbon. Such consistently warm, helpful and happy people working at the property. The hotel itself needs some updates. It certainly doesn't have a "Four Seasons" feel to the rooms - everything is very dated. While the bed was very comfortable, the air-conditioning unit, even when turned to the coldest possible temperature was still very warm. We slept on top of the covers. The spa was absolutely fabulous - very comfortable with all the amenities, lockers and facilities you would come to expect from a Four Seasons spa. Amazing massages. The location might be good for business travelers but the 15-20 minute walk to get into the mix became rather exhausting. Overall, the staff make this hotel great, not the property itself.
Four Seasons and Ritz can vary from place to place, but the Lisbon one is everything is should be - wonderful large comfortable rooms, great linens, beautiful baths. It is a little dated, color scheme old but minor point. Breakfast buffet is well worth it, don't miss the Belem tarts and cream based pastries - a portuguese specialty. Staff at meals has been trained to perfection.

of Project 1 Hemophilia B (HB) is an X-linked disease resulting from the deficiency of clotting factor IX (FIX). Skeletal muscle is an attractive target tissue for gene therapy using adeno-associated viral vectors (AAV). Early-phase clinical studies, using recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) vectors encoding the human FIX gene for intramuscular (IM) injection of HB subjects, were associated with an excellent safety profile, but low efficacy. One strategy for increasing efficiency is to transduce larger areas of muscle. We accomplished this by developing a non-invasive, peripheral transvenular delivery of AAV vectors to skeletal muscle of HB dogs via afferent transvenular retrograde extravasations (ATVRX). Vector doses tested were within the range of those safely delivered to human subjects. In this application we propose to further improve the therapeutic potential of ATVRX for HB gene therapy by using a naturally occurring FIX variant, FIX-Padua or FIX-R338L. This FIX variant is associated with an 8-fold higher specific activity than the wild-type FIX. Early data in HB dogs using AAV-6-encoding canine (c) FIX-Padua to skeletal muscle via ATVRX resulted in expression of a cFIX protein at 10-30% of normal FIX activity in plasma, but with only 1-3% antigen levels. The HB dogs used were from University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill (UNC-CH) colony and harbor a missense mutation in the FIX gene. We now seek to carry out a comprehensive study in two distinct dog models of HB to assess the efficacy and safety of cFIX-Padua. We hypothesize that the use of a FIX protein with high specific activity will allow us to (1) lower the effective rAAV vector doses required for hemostatic efficacy and at the same time not increase local antigen production of FIX and (2) overcome the limited capacity of skeletal muscle in performing all the post- translational FIX modifications for a fully functional protein. There are 3 specific aims to this proposal.
Aim 1 : To determine the safe and therapeutic dose range of AAV-6-cFIX-Padua following delivery to skeletal muscle via ATVRX. We will perform a dose-escalation study to define the minimal and maximal vector doses that would result in sustainable and safe therapeutic levels of FIX.
Aim 2 :To determine the immunological profile of expression of cFIX-Padua in two canine HB models: (a) High risk model for inhibitor formation using inhibitor- prone HB dogs from the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) dog colony (b) HB dogs from the UNC- CH dog colony expressing subtherapeutic levels of wild-type (WT) FIX from previous injections of AAV-2-cFIX.
Aim 3. To determine the biological function and immunogenicity of recombinant FIX-Padua protein. We will characterize FIX-Padua by a series of biochemical and functional kinetic assays and carry out immunologic challenges in AAV-FIX treated dogs with these FIX proteins. Thus, the overall goal of this proposal is to establish the efficacy and safety of a novel therapeutic protocol that combines an optimized peripheral intravascular delivery of rAAV to skeletal muscle with the use of an effective AAV serotype (AAV-6), and the use of a novel highly active FIX as the transgene product that should be translatable to patient care in the future.

So it' s been almost a 3 year hiatus from blogging on this site. Kids certainly keep you busy! What better way to revive this blog with an entry about our recent family adventure bike touring in Tasmania?
I first floated the idea to Dave last November about the possibility of going bike touring with the kids in 2016. It was an idea I suggested with some trepidation given the young age of our kids – Jessica, 3 and Isaac not yet 1. However, being the adventurous couple that we are and that "adventure holidays" (well , family holidays in general) have been suspended for the early child rearing years we decided to take the plunge and head to the lovely apple isle, Tasmania.
We decided the cooler month of March might be best for travel, although you never know in Tasmania – it can be 4 seasons in one day.
Prior to embarking on this little adventure , we did some test runs in Canberra and surrounds. For two successive Saturdays we planned out a 60-70km route from home. The first one being fairly local around Lake Burley Griffin so that if things went pear shaped we were within a reasonable travel distance to home. Thankfully, all went quite smoothly. It was a beautiful sunny day and as we meandered our way around the lake, stopping at Black Mountain peninsula for lunch, I found my thoughts wandering to the several years that I enjoyed racing in Europe.
For the second dry run we headed from Dunlop up to Sutton and looped back via the Federal highway service road to Eagle Hawk. The first section of the route took advantage of Canberra's great bike paths around Gungahlin and we enjoyed our first stop at the popular Forde playground. Then it was onto the pleasant undulating country roads around Sutton and a lunch stop at Eagle Hawk . We were happy that Jess and Isaac were travelling well in the back together and aside from some obligatory squawks of discontent from Isaac and some louder shrieks from Jessica about minor incidents (such as the shade cover on the trailer Velcro coming unstuck!?) we were encouraged that our Tasmania bike tour might actually come together. Sure, we weren't going to set any speed records, averaging 19.8km/hr, but I had to turn my ex-racing brain off and keep repeating the mantra "We don't have to get their fast, we just have to get there…"
Given it was our first family bike touring trip, we decided it would be wise to bring along Dave's parents as a Plan B. Sure, 2 days of dry runs had gone reasonably well but 10 days might be pushing it. Besides, Michael and Jill could have a lovely scenic holiday as they drove the route and met us up for lunch and stops along the way.
March 8th – off we go! We drove down to Melbourne and took the Spirit of Tasmania ferry across Bass Strait.
The furthest car trip we had done with kids up to this point had been Sydney to Wagga, about 5 hours driving time, so Canberra to Melbourne (8 hours) was certainly a new challenge. I had half expected that Isaac would be the tricky one to contend with and would tire of things quickly. It turned out Jessica was the one asking "are we there yet" not long into the trip. It certainly wasn't the worst of car trips but given an incredibly hot and long day, it definitely didn't rank as one of my favourites.
Things perked up when we boarded the overnight ferry. Jess was all wide eyed and amazed that we were all going to spend the night together as a family in a cabin (yippee) and we allowed her to stay up past bedtime as we enjoyed a lovely sunset and the night lights across Port Phillip Bay.
After a long drive, Dave and I were both looking forward to a decent night's rest. It started out ok but once the ferry had left Port Phillip Bay the rocking began. A rocking action that should (in theory) rock one to sleep, however this was far from the case as every rock forwards was accompanied by a loud bang as something rolled around in the depths of the ship. It was one of those nights where you don't feel like you have slept at all so when the PA system came to life at 5.45am to get us out of bed and swiftly into our cars to disembark I was very much wishing that I drank coffee. Baby Isaac probably had the best sleep of all of us… which is a problem when your baby is bursting with energy and the rest of you are feeling like death warmed up.
Day 1
Drive to Launceston and then ride to Scottsdale
Whilst Tasmania is an excellent place for touring, we only had 2 weeks off work so we needed to condense the bike touring part to 10 days. We would have loved to have traversed greater parts of the island but decided it was best for all involved to keep our travelling circuit to the North East section. Also it was important with little ones in a double chariot trailer being hauled behind that we selected quieter, less major roads and hopped on bike paths and rail trails where possible. So we decided on a quick drive to Launceston – 3 adults and 2 kids + all out luggage piled into our car and Michael catching the bus.
From there we unpacked the trailer from the back of our car and left Dave's parents to some peaceful scenic driving.
We began our trip on a rail trail and were only 5km into the trip when we realised that we had left my back wheel skewer on the pavement where we had unpacked. Surprisingly it hadn't been noticed in the first 5 km until the pressure was applied on a small rise. Definitely unsafe to continue so Dave unhitched the trailer and scooted back to retrieve it from just where we had left it. Meanwhile I hand rocked Jess and Isaac to sleep by shifting the trailer back and forth whilst sitting on the pavement!
The rail trail took us through some dodgy suburbs with lots of burnt out cars and a frustrating number of anti-car barriers which would have been navigable if you just had a bike , difficult with a bike and panniers and next to impossible with a bike, panniers and a double trailer. We ended up unhitching the trailer and lifting it (still containing 2 children) over the barriers. Who says cyclists don't need upper body strength?!
This undesirable suburban route and the fact that it had began to rain was not the best start to our touring holiday. Once we had stopped and refuelled the children and ourselves at a tiny general store on the outskirts of Launceston, we were on our way again. Things were looking up again as we wove our way through beautiful forests and the sun began to shine. We met up with Dave's parents in Lilydale and were grateful for lunch and a spot for the kids to explore. At this point, Jess decided that she had had enough of the trailer so jumped in the car with Nan and Grandad heading for Scottsdale. For this 2nd part of the journey Isaac, now sitting in the centre position in the trailer like Lord Muck, havd a ball without his sister and again slept for a few hours.
There was a fair bit of road works along this route requiring us to stop at temporary lights and wait for oncoming traffic. Due to the snail's pace we were travelling at, we struggled to make it through these sections before the lights would change and we'd find ourselves directly in line with oncoming traffic. Now there's motivation to pick up the pace!
During our test rides in Canberra we had averaged close to 20km/hr. Now that we were in Tassie, I was reminded why I had chosen to train down here during my racing career: it is hilly everywhere. If the road is not going down then it's going up. With a single bike you can often ride the rolling hills by getting decent speed on the descent and zooming up the other side. When carrying a trailer that is incredibly hard to accelerate and acts like a parachute on the descents. Our average speed dropped to closer to 15km/hr.
Our first night in Scottsdale provided an opportunity to go platypus spotting in the creek across the road from our accommodation. Unfortunately after staring at a number of ripples on the water and encountering noisy ducks we didn't spot any platypi. However it was still an enjoyable walk around the boardwalk in a lovely bush setting . I slept like a log that night.
Day 2
Scottsdale to St Helens
This was our big distance day so we decided to aim to leave at 8.30am. Turns out we left closer to 9am but that's the reality when you not only have to get yourself ready but two little ones. Isaac kept wanting to crawl around the car park whilst we were packing the car and Jessica was busying herself in the owner's veggie garden. Nan and Grandad had a nice quiet morning to themselves as they explored Scottsdale and enjoyed rhubarb smoothies.
The rail trail at the start of this ride was quite bumpy in parts which really turned up Isaac's discontentment dial. He whinged, bit his sister, pulled her hair and of course she reacted with as much punch as possible. I was grateful for my headphones blaring music for this section as I hauled a trailer full of yelling kids. It was slow travelling with a steady uphill gradient of about 3% for 15km but again it was enjoyable to be out riding in the cooler part of the morning, riding through stunning forests.
By the time we arrived at Bruxholm for lunch, some 3 hours later, we had only travelled 25km of the 108km trip. Jessica was definitely over it by now and begging to join Nan and Grandad in the car. Turns out she enjoyed cheese tasting, milkshakes, waterfalls and a playground visit… all before arriving at St Helens for the night.
Zac again enjoyed the solitude of the trailer and drifted off to sleep as Dave and I rotated turns pulling the trailer, travelling up and down the mountain ranges on the way to St Helens. A real treat was travelling through the bike friendly town of Derby. Once a deserted old mining town, it has been transformed into a MTB mecca and has hosted top National events. As we travelled through on the road, both of us were wondering if Isaac would notice if we suddenly took a detour off road and zigzagged through some single trails. 🙂
By 3.30pm we still had a few hours to go which would include climbing over another mountain range and the rain had begun to set in. We called the grandparents for a pick up and Dave finished off alone still towing an empty trailer so we could get the kids settled in the overnight cabins before their bed times.
Day 3
Rest day in St Helens
It poured throughout the night and the rain was still heavy in the morning. We faced the challenge after 2 days of riding of washing and drying a heap of clothes. (I wasn't too keen on wearing wet knicks the next day!) The driers at Big 4 St Helens were getting a work out by many campers. Thankfully we didn't have to endure cabin fever with the kids all day as an afternoon break in the weather allowed us to explore the town of St Helens and then go for a nice drive to the white sands of Binalong Bay. We stopped off at Taylors Beach, off the Gardens road where the kids tumbled and rolled in sand ( and Isaac ate it). Of course they managed to get sand into every crevice of themselves as well as bring half the beach into the car. Did I mention that Dave loves sand?!
Day 4
St Helens to Bicheno
This was my favourite day thus far as the road hugged the coast, the sun was out and we had a nice cross tailwind allowing to push the pace.
We had a morning tea break at Falmouth (yep, pronounced foulmouth!) where we met some friendly grey nomads who were impressed with our efforts and commended on us our useful hand signals whilst on the open roads. After a 30 minute stop we powered onto Bicheno. Along this coast there were very few reserves to stop at so we ended up having lunch on a farmers driveway. I had time trialled for a solid 35km with the trailer and was at the point of cracking it on all fronts so it was a refuel just 10km from our next night's stop at Bicheno. A highlight of our final section was watching an echidna bumbling across the road – a sight you are most likely to miss when driving.
We arrived at the family backpackers in Bicheno and was grateful for free wifi , showers and a yummy dinner again catered by Michael and Jill. Bicheno is renowned for its fairy penguin populations coming up onto the beach in the twilight evenings. We ventured out at dusk and sat for about an hour. Unfortunately no penguin sightings this evening – just plenty of mosquitoes.
Day 5
Bicheno to Coles Bay (and Isaac turns 1!)
We woke to steady rain and given it wasn't a scheduled rest day, it was back to riding in the rain. Managed a later 10am checkout time for Isaac to open some presents and play with the paper before riding towards Coles Bay.
We made good time today as I was feeling energetic and it was only 33km. Just like a race time trial really – except I'm hauling 35 kg of children and trailer. We encountered intermittent rain for the first half and then the sun peeped through the clouds as we rolled into Coles Bay. It's an absolute gorgeous part of the world-crystal clear waters surrounded by craggy mountain ranges.
We spent the afternoon splashing around at Richardson's beach. It was pretty fresh in the water but that doesn't usually deter kids and we found ourselves carrying two shivering children back to our cottage. We finished the day with a celebratory cupcake for Isaac who looked pretty chuffed with himself.
Day 6
Rest day in Coles Bay
I decided that I couldn't resist a ride through Freycinet National park and managed a solo ride up to the Cape Tourville lighthouse. The sealed road leading up to the lighthouse is steep and reminded me of the Muur of Fleche Wallonia. The view from the top is stunning and well worth the trip. I returned with the kids in the afternoon and luckily I had Isaac held close in a sling as we were almost blown away by the force of the wind on the 600m viewing boardwalk.
Day 7
Coles Bay to Launceston
We had a small problem – 4 adults and 2 kids weren't going to all fit in our car and given that we needed to cover a large distance (190k from Coles Bay to Launceston) one of us was going to need to ride. Dave planned a nice quiet cycling route that ran parallel to the major highway running from Campbelltown to Launceston. It was always going to be a huge riding day for Dave but he was up for the challenge and left at 6.30am.
Hearing the early departure, the kids were also up at the crack of dawn (there is no such thing as a leisurely morning anymore!) and we packed up the cottage and the rest of us set of for the drive. We stopped at the "Pondering Frog cafe" (just after the Coles Bay turn off) to sample their homemade berry ice cream. Nothing to rave about but Jess certainly devoured her kid's size cone. We passed Dave as he was approaching Campbelltown and all stopped for lunch in a little park near RedBridge cafe, which had a yummy range of gluten free food. I decided to join Dave for the last 80km stretch of back country roads to Launceston. Isaac was keen for a sleep and again enjoyed the solitude in the trailer, whilst Jessica relished 1 on 1 time (or is that 1 on 2 time?) with Nan and Grandad.
We were able to travel along smooth, traffic free roads at a decent speed with a roaring tailwind. The only problem was that there were no rest areas or villages for about 50km. Fortunately Zac slept the time away. As we rolled into Launceston, I was enjoying the descent with the trailer so much that I missed Dave's calls to turn off to our accommodation half way down. We endured an extra 5km to an already long trip to top off the day – but I'm sure Dave will forgive me eventually.
Our accommodation was in an old 2 storey B and B called Windmill Lodge which was in need of significant renovations and it was a squeeze for 4 adults, however the breakfast was amazing and given that we were still catching up on food from the epic day before, we spent a long time at the buffet. 🙂
Day 8
Launceston to Deloraine
On day 8 we travelled at a nice casual pace for the 50km trip from Launceston to Deloraine. We stopped at a small village called Carrick for the kids to play and run off some energy. This didn't seem to do a huge deal of good as our second leg of the trip was spent having stern words with each kid as they attempted to kill the other in the trailer. I think the trip was starting to take its toll, which wasn't too bad considering we had made it to Day 8. Deloraine is a lovely town with plenty places to stock up on food. We stayed in a nice roomy house with views of the mountains.
Day 9
Deloraine to Devonport
We had made it to our final riding day! Once again it was raining which was not at all an issue for the kids with the rain cover and the excellent waterproofing on our Chariot trailer (I'm very glad we had invested in a good quality double trailers – it's had good use and really lasted the significant riding time and load we've placed on it). Dave had mapped out some nice quiet roads off the main highway which had us stopping for a break at Kimberly – a tiny village with thermal springs. Whilst the springs were not so warm, it was a nice spot with a pond for some eel spotting and trees for Isaac to peel bark from! I really felt I was loafing on this last day of riding as I was without panniers or trailer. It felt great to be free of all loads so I mixed it up with some hill sprints and short efforts. One could almost call it training again. 🙂 No I'm not planning a return to a racing career but was thinking it was going to have me fitter for the Thursday women's ride in Canberra (the WIP ride) which we have just started.
The final 10km into Devonport along the river was very pleasant and we finished up for lunch at the Rectory – a unique cafe right near the ferry terminal. Our last night was squished into a cabin at the windy shores of East Devonport Big 4 and unfortunately not an optimal night's rest with both Jess and Isaac deciding that going to sleep was overrated and that waking up before 6am was the new trend.
Day 10
Drive to Ulverstone and Penguin
We had coped pretty well with the 4 of us and extended family but by day 10, Dave and his parents were after a quiet day before boarding the ship home. I decided to take Jess and Isaac to the berry farm at Taylors beach just out of Devonport. It's a cool spot where you pick your own strawberries, blackberries and raspberries and muck around in the hay bales and sandpits. From there we did a tour of the playgrounds of Penguin and Ulverstone as we wiled away the afternoon before catching the ferry overnight back to Devonport.
Day 11
Drive Melbourne to Canberra
Once off the ferry, we visited some friends in St Kilda for breakfast before setting off on the long car trip back to Canberra. We had all slept better on the return ferry, nevertheless an 8 hour driving trip left us all feeling like we needed another holiday to unwind. Arriving home Saturday night, it was back to the grind on Monday morning.
I can genuinely say that it was a successful first family cycling holiday and hope there are many more adventures to follow. 🙂 We already talking about our next bike touring trip to New Zealand so it can't have been too bad.

Eclampsia is a serious complication of pregnancy that occurs when hypertension during pregnancy develops with neurologic complications, including headache, vomiting, blindness and convulsions. While multiple organs are affected by hypertension in pregnancy, cerebrovascular involvement is the direct cause of death in ~40% of patients. The major cerebrovascular changes that occur during eclampsia are thought to be similar to hypertensive encephalopathy in which acute elevations in pressure cause autoregulatory breakthrough, hyperperfusion and edema. Our preliminary studies found that late-pregnant animals had significantly decreased cerebrovascular resistance and hyperperfusion compared to nonpregnant animals during acute hypertension, similar to eclampsia. Importantly, only the late-pregnant animals developed cerebral edema, suggesting that pregnancy alone predisposes the brain to the neurologic complications of eclampsia when blood pressure is elevated. Because of the prominent role of edema formation in mediating the neurologic complications of eclampsia, the long-term objective of this project is understand the underlying mechanisms by which pregnancy and hypertension in pregnancy affect the cerebral circulation in a way that promotes hydrostatic brain edema during increased blood pressure. Our preliminary studies suggest for the first time that pregnancy causes outward remodeling of cerebral arterioles, an effect that likely diminishes small vessel resistance in the brain during acute hypertension.
Aim 1 will therefore investigate underlying mechanisms by which pregnancy causes outward remodeling, including the hormone relaxin, known to promote vascular remodeling in the systemic circulation during pregnancy. We also found that pregnancy causes more severe blood-brain barrier disruption in response to acute hypertension compared to nonpregnant animals.
Aim 2 will investigate underlying mechanisms by which this occurs, including production of placental growth factor that can increase hydraulic conductivity and decrease tight junction expression. Lastly, because many women who develop eclampsia have preexisting hypertension, or preeclampsia, prior to the acute hypertensive event that causes neurologic complications, Aim 3 will use a model of hypertension in pregnancy to investigate changes in cerebral hemodynamics, blood-brain barrier properties and edema formation that may be unique compared to normal pregnancy. A powerful combination of in vivo and in vitro techniques will be used that should provide clinically relevant information regarding novel hemodynamic changes and mechanisms of edema during pregnancy and hypertension in pregnancy.
Eclampsia is a leading cause of maternal death world-wide. These studies investigate underlying mechanisms by which pregnancy and hypertension during pregnancy affect the cerebral circulation in ways that promote the neurologic complications of eclampsia. This understanding is crucial to effective management and treatment of this devastating condition.

by Anti-Racist Parent Columnist Michelle Myers
I know I haven't been able to keep up with my posts as much as I've liked over the last month, but I've been reading recent posts with great interest. In particular, Dawn Friedman's post calling out anti-racist white parents of white children struck a particular chord, as it did with many people. I also found Carmen's post about recent comments Angelina Jolie made in an interview interesting, and though at least one person commented that he/she didn't get "much of a racial connotation out of [Jolie's] statement," I would argue that Jolie makes two points: her second statement about Shiloh being a "blob" may be about the differences between adopted children and biological children—but Shiloh's blobbiness won't last too long, so this isn't even a critical point. Her first statement, however, is very revealing and implicitly has a racial context. At the heart of both of these posts, and I'm not saying anything that someone hasn't already said, is white privilege. I think that many POC parents and some white parents of biracial or transracially adopted children (as many have admitted) are compelled to enter and engage in the discussion precisely because they are of color and/or have children who are of color, and they are actively trying be aware of and head off things, even unpleasant things, that their children may be forced to confront. For many—and I'm not saying all, but many—of these parents, they speak up because they feel they have no choice since race is so much a part of their lives.
White parents of white children on some level do have a choice; as the perceived-if-not-actual representatives of the human standard of culture and living in the U.S., white people often are not confronted for being "of their race" on a daily basis and frequently do not have to deal with racial issues unless they find themselves in a situation or forum in which POC perspectives are a part of the dialogue, if not the dominant point-of-view. Even then, white folks can stay out of the conversation—and believe me, many POC folks don't want you comment because they fear that you will try to usurp the discussion. But I think Angelina Jolie is admirable for a number of different reasons; no matter how much people question her motives, she is clearly aware of white privilege. Maybe this has something to do with the fact that her mother is part Iroquois; however, she is obviously mindful that she herself is "read" as being white (despite that, from what I've read, she is currently filming a movie where she is playing a mixed race woman whom many say is black, which has caused an uproar among some black folks). Anyway, when Angelina Jolie says, "I think I feel so much more for Mad and Z because they're survivors, they came through so much. Shiloh seemed so privileged from the moment she was born. I have less inclination to feel for her . . .," you really cannot take that out of its racial/cultural/political/class context. Jolie has been to and spent time in Cambodia; she has witnessed that the country STILL suffers many debilitating effects from Pol Pot's oppressive and murderous regime. She has been to Ethiopia; she has seen the effects of poverty, famine, ethnic conflict, political instability. Both her adopted children are orphans; their parents perhaps had died or had to give them up as a result of these pervading issues. I'm sure as U.N. Ambassador, she probably learned how children like hers are exploited for labor and as sex slaves. You cannot separate these issues and their vulnerability from the fact that they are Southeast Asian and African—people across the West/First World have turned a blind-eye to the problems in these areas of the world for a long time, and many have contended that such unconcern is rooted in racism.
Jolie believes that to have been alive when she met them in their young lives, they had to be "survivors." As a person who has been excruciatingly open about her own troubled youth/past, Jolie's personal connection to her adopted children and their experiences is understandable. Shiloh, on the other hand, has been born into privilege on SO many levels: she has both her biological parents; her parents are currently two of the most successful, multi-millionaire actors in Hollywood; her parents have been tagged as two of the most beautiful people in the world; and her parents, and by extension she herself, represent the epitome of white privilege (despite Angelina being mixed)—I mean, isn't that the main reason why most people hate on Angelina and Brad for adopting Maddox and Zahara? Anyway, to get back to my original point, even though Angelina KNOWS she is read as the billboard for white privilege, she makes it a point to speak up, engage in the discussion of race and class and inequality. She does this even as most of the world sets her in the sights of their crosshairs. That takes a great deal of courage.
Of course I'm writing this on a WHOLE LOT of assumptions, but I think Jolie has been pretty consistent about her vocal/public recognition of the complexities surrounding her life situations and these life choices. My question then becomes: if she's aware of how she feels towards Shiloh as a child who has been born into so many levels of privilege, what is she going to do to try to prevent Shiloh from growing up to hate her? On the flip side, what is she going to do, as a rich, famous, defacto white parent of children of color, to make sure she connects with her adopted children in a way that communicates to them that she is not paying lip-service to racial and cultural acceptance so that they don't see her as a hypocrite and then grow up hating her?
As parents, after all the joys and struggles of having and raising our children, we don't want to think about "What if my child grows up to hate me?" I think we all assume that we will have wonderful relationships with our children as we grow older, and one day, we'll be able to enjoy life as doting and proud grandparents. We idealize about the holidays and family reunions. We imagine that our children will call us every-other-day—or at least every weekend—to chat because they want to and because they love us. I hate to burst this bubble, but this sometimes doesn't happen. I'm running too long on this post, but I want to use myself and my life as an example of the kind of concerns I'm raising because I'm not above reproach or immune from critical missteps made in my life, personally and as a parent. So sometime soon (fingers crossed!) I hope to talk about my own experiences as a troubled teen and young adult who grew up hating my interracial background and both my parents (Korean and white). After that, I'd like to examine how I may be transferring these issues to my own children, even if I do so inadvertently. Finally, I challenge all parents on this site to consider: What kind of relationship do you want to have with your children as they grow into adulthood, and what words-combined-with-actions can help you to meet your children's needs—not your own egos, but your children's needs—in order for you to realize that desired relationship?

Today marks the 76th anniversary of King Edward VIII's abdication in England in the 1930s, which highlights the constitutional differences in two nations between replacing a head of state.
The future of the British monarchy is the buzz of Europe, as the royal family is expecting at least one new heir to the throne, to succeed Prince William when he eventually becomes king.
But as Edward's shocking abdication in the years just before World War II showed, the British secession system has some serious flaws.
King Edward VIII had little direct political power, but the symbolic importance of the monarchy in the United Kingdom can't be underestimated—especially when the king quits as the war drums are sounding.
Back in America, the Founding Fathers flirted with the idea of bestowing a grand title on George Washington, but most were opposed to having a monarchy in any form in the United States.
Instead, the U.S. Constitution allows for a chief executive who functions as a head of state, and also as the leader of one of the three branches of government.
For example, Alexander Hamilton proposed the idea of an "elective monarch" at the 1787 Constitutional convention, but it was rejected. The elective monarch would have served much like a Supreme Court justice, based on good behavior.
But the original Constitution didn't have any limit on the number of terms a president could serve (that came after President Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected to four terms). President Washington considered, and then rejected, a run for a third term in 1796, setting a custom that was followed until 1940.
While there can be a considerable debate if the British or American system for selecting a head of state is better, the succession systems themselves are considerably different and problematic.
For example, when President Richard Nixon resigned in 1974, Vice President Gerald Ford took his place. However, Ford was not directly elected as vice president (he was appointed to replace the originally elected vice president, who resigned). But Ford was part of a very detailed succession system that guaranteed someone would serve as president, without dispute, until the next election.
That plan is outlined in the 20th Amendment and 25th Amendment, and a federal law, the Presidential Succession Act of 1947. The law states a list, starting with 17 people who can act as president under various conditions.
Currently, House Speaker John Boehner is second in line to the presidency, while Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano is 17th in line. But at the very most, a new president can only serve until the next general election.
The British system has no term limits for a monarch. Queen Elizabeth II has ruled since 1952. Her son, Prince Charles, will assume the crown when the queen has passed away or voluntarily retires. Charles is 64 and could rule for several decades.
Charles' son, Prince William, is the Prince of Wales' heir, and he is currently 30 years of age. Assuming Prince William becomes king in his early 50s, he could easily rule for three decades.
With the news that Princess Catherine, William's wife, is pregnant, an heir (or heirs) for Prince William should soon be in place.
If William serves as king until the age of 85, his daughter or son would assume the throne around the year 2066 or later. That heir could serve until the year 2100, depending on the longevity of her or his predecessors.
That guarantees a line of succession for the British throne for approximately the next 90 years.
So while Americans don't know who the head of state will be in 2017, the British know their monarch for the next century—unless someone dies or resigns.
Given the legacy of King Edward VIII's abdication, it's unlikely a British monarch would resign unless there was a health issue involved—or there was an unforeseen issue that could force a British constitutional crisis.
King Edward VIII resigned because he was advised by his prime minister that the public wouldn't accept his marriage to an American citizen, Wallis Simpson, because it wasn't in line with his role as head of the Church of England.
There have been two proposed recent constitutional revisions in the Commonwealth and the United Kingdom that will change part of the succession rules, when they are officially approved.
The Act of Succession may be changed to allow the first-born child of a monarch, regardless of gender, to become the heir. The other is that the monarch can marry a Catholic.
But the king or queen can't be Catholic or belong to any other religion than the Church of England, which would pose a conflict if a monarch decides to convert to another religion, or their offspring decide to follow another religion—and need to change their faith or lose their claim to the throne.
That would lead to another speech to a nation, as it was in 1936, when King Edward VIII had to choose the woman he loved over the crown.

"Having two parents who can feel and express love for each other, and give it in abundance to their children, that's what matters. It doesn't matter what the identities of those parents are."
– Heidi Nortonsmith, one of the original gay couples to marry in Massachusetts in 2004.
Here's more about how things have gone for the past 5 years…
At the time of those first weddings, the debate was red-hot — protests were frequent, expectations ran high that legislators would allow a referendum on whether to overturn the court ruling ordering same-sex marriage. Now, although Roman Catholic leaders and some conservative activists remain vocally opposed, there is overwhelming political support for same-sex marriage and no prospect for a referendum.
According to the latest state figures, through September 2008, there had been 12,167 same-sex marriages in Massachusetts — 64 percent of them between women — out of 170,209 marriages in all. Some consequences have been tangible — a boom for gay-friendly wedding businesses, the exit of a Roman Catholic charity from the adoption business — and some almost defy description.
"Having your committed relationships recognized — to say it's deeply meaningful is to trivialize it," said Mary Bonauto, lead lawyer in the landmark lawsuit. "I know people who'd been together 20 years who say, 'Getting married — it knocked my socks off.'"
Still there are issues that these folks have to deal with, not the least of which is that their unions aren't recognized federally. So that creates a whole host of problems, not the least of which is taxation. And with a president in the White House who claims he doesn't think gays should be allowed to get married, it might be a long time before these problems are solved.

Sorry to hear about poor Bus and hope he heals quickly. I have a female that has had several eye injuries over the years. The vet and I think that she doesn't use her third eyelid fast enough! Some dogs are just more accident prone. Hope you have a wonderful hunt anyway!
My thoughts and prayers go out to Dr. Smith and his family. Such tragedies unfortunately do remind us to not dwell on the small set backs. I wish Bus a quick recovery. Enjoy your friends and good hunting.

I like my dogs black, wet and with a dead duck in their mouth!
Mine failed the dye test back in the summer. Doc believes a stick or dry grass stuck in the eye did it. The good news is it does heal completely. Since my dog only has one eye it was kinda scarey.

Celebrating The Day of the Dead, OLA style!
November 2nd, 2009 by Carlos
The food is for the souls of the dead couple whose pictures were on the altar as part of the Latin American holiday, Dia de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, which took place at Caju last Monday night.
Homemade altars are a common sight in many Latino households as part of the Dia de los Muertos holiday, coinciding with All Saints' and All Souls' Days Nov. 1-2.
Those who want to honor the dead set up tables with candles called veladoras, glasses of water, fruit and pan de muerto a couple of days before to welcome back the spirits of their loved ones.
Pan de muerto, round loaves of sweet bread, are one of the most iconic items on the altars.
Ancient indigenous people of Central and South America believed the souls of dead loved ones come back to roam the earth for a short time. When the souls return, they need incense to cleanse the area of bad spirits; water because they're thirsty from their journey, candles to guide them, flowers to make them happy and their favorite foods.
The celebration of the day of the dead is the celebration of life itself, and with that spirit thanks to event organizers Mary Luz Mejia and Mario Stojanac of Sizzling Communications, Caju's Tina Giontsis and Torito's tapas bar Veronica Laudes, I am happy to report that we had a great event.
Ola as Of Latino America, 7 chefs, one kitchen, One Hot Night, it really was Hot!!!
We all prepared dishes that represented our roots using locally grown products.
The event sold out to a happy crow of Anglos and Latinos

PARIS (AP) — Terrorists linked to each other seized hostages at two locations around Paris on Friday, January 9, 2015 facing off against hundreds of French security forces as the city shut down a famed Jewish neighborhood and scrambled to protect residents and tourists from further attacks. France has been high alert for more attacks since the country's worst terror attack in decades — the massacre Wednesday in Paris at the satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo that left 12 people dead. The two sets of hostage-takers apparently know each other, said a police official who was not authorized to discuss the rapidly developing situations with the media.
