text: Well, I've gone and done it - I am now ridding on 4 new Potenza G009 tires. After going over it in my head and searching for different recommendations, I came to the conclusion that I would bite the bullet and get all 4. The other 3 were in "ok" shape and I might have gotten another year out of them, but riding around on two different ties would have gnawed at me night & day. Brandon said it best in an earlier message: "For me - If I had 4 tires that were, say, past half worn and needed to replace one or two, I'd go ahead and replace all four - I'd bitch about spending the money a little sooner than I wanted but before long it would be history. If the tires were pretty new, I'd just go for the one or two new ones and probably put them up front." I got up this morning and scooted on down to the local Tire's Plus (Michaels Tires) and told them to go ahead and slap 4 new tires on. He said that the G009 tires were $130/each out the door, I told him that the guy last night said I could get the "Buy 3 get 1 free" deal. He said that the deal wasn't good for that tire, but he would give it to me anyway. The total cost was $436 - even cheaper than Tire Rack before mounting/balancing! I am extremely happy with my deal and he now has a customer for life! It's all good. Well, not all of it. After putting on my spare tire last night and merging back into traffic, a local Oil Recycle truck whipped in front of me and spewed my windshield with crap. I cursed and yelled (being in a bad mood already) but wrote it off and went to get my tire looked at. This morning as I was pulling away from the tire dealer I noticed a 3" crack in my windshield. :( Looking a little closer I found a small pit and some glass and rock dust at the base of the windshield. I guess I'll just wait for it to run and then get a new one. Good thing I pay the insurance company obscene amounts of money so I can get it replaced for "free". But, I'm not bitter... Later...

The guidance applies to loans or hardship distribution requests made between August 23, 2017, and January 31, 2018. The announcement can be found on the IRS website.
If you, a lineal ascendant (e.g., grandparent, parent), lineal descendent (e.g., child, grandchild), dependent, or spouse has a principal place of residence or a place of employment located in one of the affected Texas counties (listed on the IRS website), a loan or hardship distribution may be available to you from your employer-sponsored retirement plan, even if the plan normally does not permit such. It is important to note that certain other requirements apply, including documentation requirements.
If you wish to receive a loan or hardship distribution, please contact your plan administrator or call Mutual of America's Withdrawal Processing Center at 1-877-567-9662, Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. ET.

After the flooding and power outages, one of the biggest impacts Superstorm Sandy has had in the Northeast remains a rash of gasoline shortages. To get around the problem, Fei Teng, a 42-year-old sushi chef at a Manhattan restaurant called 1066 ENO, was reportedly hoarding gas in the restaurant's basement using soy sauce buckets. How do we know this? According to the New York Daily News, another restaurant employee accidently spilled most of the fuel onto the floor, which subsequently somehow ig
Gas Shortage
Early New England snowstorm leads to long gas lines, shortage fears
If you're old enough to remember the gas shortages of the 1970s, then you probably remember the long lines to get fuel. If you aren't old enough and you'd like to experience those lines for yourself, head to New England. A massive October snowfall has left many without power, including gas stations. That means that those gas stations that still have power are getting swamped, and tanker trucks aren't getting through because of the weather. Add it all up, and you have the makings of a small crisi

If you did not appeal a denial of your SSD claim in time, you should ask a Rockville Social Security disability attorney to find out whether you had good cause to miss the deadline.
A Rockville Social Security Disability Attorney Will Explain How You Can Extend the Deadline
If the Social Security Administration denied your SSD claim and you failed to appeal in time, the SSA may extend the deadline if it finds that you had good cause for missing it. If you want the SSA to do this, you must send them the following materials:
- An appeal and a detailed letter that explains the delay in making the request for either the review of the determination or decision; and
- Your affidavit, depending on the situation.
If the SSA determines that you had good cause for the delay, it will extend the time limit.20 C.F.R. §§ 404.909(b), 404.933(c), 404.968(b).
POMS GN 03101.020 A.1. explains who will be the decision maker in specific cases: "An individual from the component that has the authority to adjudicate the appeal being filed determines whether 'good cause' exists." This means that an administrative law judge, or ALJ, will determine good cause if you failed to make the Request for Hearing in time while the Appeals Council will determine good cause for a late Request for Review of Hearing Decision. The Appeals Council will additionally determine good cause to extend the deadline to file in federal court.
A Rockville Social Security Disability Lawyer Discusses What Constitutes Good Cause
Regulation 20 C.F.R. § 404.911. details what "good cause" is for missing the deadline. It require the SSA to consider whether:
- The circumstances which led to the delay in appeal; 20 C.F.R. § 404.911(a)(1)
- You failed to act in time as you were misled by heir own mistakes; 20 C.F.R. § 404.911(a)(2)
- You did not understand the requirement of timely appeal; 20 C.F.R. § 404.911(a)(3) and
- You could not make a timely request due to any physical, mental, educational or linguistic limitations (including inability to speak English). 20 C.F.R. § 404.911(a)(4)
Furthermore, Social Security Ruling 91-5 expands on 20 C.F.R. § 404.911(a)(4) by allowing the SSA to extend the deadline if you:
- have no one legally responsible for prosecuting the claim "e.g., a parent of a claimant who is a minor, legal guardian, attorney, or other legal representative;" and
- missed the deadline due to mental incapacity.
The SSA can find good cause in this way "regardless of how much time has passed since the prior administrative action," and you "can establish good cause for extending the deadline to request review of that action." They will need evidence proving your lack of mental capacity to comprehend the procedures for requesting review, but reasonable doubt will be resolved in your favor.
If you require an experienced Rockville Social Security disability attorney to help with filing for your SSD benefits, please contact the law offices of attorney Bromberg Rosenthal at at 1-301-251-6200.

Connected: A Video Showing Use of iPhone in Academic Settings
What might a university look like with a fully deployed program of converged devices like the iPhone? Connected is one possible vision. This fictional day-in-the-life account highlights some of the potential benefits in a higher education setting when every student, faculty, and staff member is "connected." Though the applications and functions portrayed in the film are purely speculative, they're based on needs and ideas uncovered by our research - and we've already been making strides to transform this vision of mobile learning (mLearning) into reality.

Music Video from RadioHead uses laser and 3D Imaging
Here is description from Google's web site on how to do it:
Radiohead just released a new video for its song "House of Cards" from the album "In Rainbows".
No cameras or lights were used. Instead two technologies were used to capture 3D images: Geometric Informatics and Velodyne LIDAR scanning systems produce structured light to capture 3D images at close proximity, while a . Geometric InformaticsVelodyne Lidar system that uses multiple lasers is used to capture large environments such as landscapes. In this video, 64 lasers rotating and shooting in a 360 degree radius 900 times per minute produced all the exterior scenes.

T Boone Pickens With a Plan
It is the older people who finally are speaking up and telling people to do something who have become extremely dependent on the system to take care of them. Warren Buffet age 78 has been extremely outspoken about our financial irresponsibility and the banking crises we are in. Same is true of Lee Iacocca age 84, former chairman of Chrysler corporation who wrote "Where have all the leaders gone". Now an old oilmen T. Boone Pickens in his 80's speaking up to do some thing about energy crisis we are going through, that is likely to get worse in the near future before it gets better.
He has a plan.
His initiative gathering vey quick support support and here in this video he makes an eloquent pitch for the support of his plan
Here in this video he outlines his ideas on how he plans to solve the energy shortage problem
It is not only that he is urging people to do something he is also using Internet through Web 2.0 tools and technologies that support communication/collaboration among people to mobilize people to a cause that will benefit them by lowering the energy cost.
He has internet presence through web site1, and site2
He has a video channel on Youtube
He has created a social networking website on Ning for people to join and participate in the discussion. The web site already list the membership in thousands.
He is a member on facebook and Myspace where you can join him
You can follow him on twitter.
I am sure there are other web 2.0 tools that he is using and I have missed. It is just amazing that at his age of 80 he is willing to utilize all the tools at his disposal to quickly communicate his message and get people to collaborate at the Internet speed.
It is about time that people take responsibility for their own welfare instead looking unto some body who may or may not be there to help them when they need it.
This is the example of capitalism at its best where technology provides solution to a problem, makes living better for everyone all around and provides opportunity to the entrepreneurs to make money out of the windfall that occurs as a result of the change in the energy usage pattern of the people.

What is Cloud Computing
The author Nicholas Carr of "What does it matter "fame wrote a book The Big Switch: Rewiring the World, from Edison to Google" to explain it. Here is a review of his book:
An eye-opening look at the new computer revolution and the coming transformation of our economy, society, and culture. A hundred years ago, companies stopped producing their own power with steam engines and generators and plugged into the newly built electric grid. The cheap power pumped out by electric utilities not only changed how businesses operated but also brought the modern world into existence. Today a similar revolution is under way. Companies are dismantling their private computer systems and tapping into rich services delivered over the Internet. This time it's computing that's turning into a utility. The shift is already remaking the computer industry, bringing new competitors like Google to the fore and threatening traditional stalwarts like Microsoft and Dell. But the effects will reach much further. Cheap computing will ultimately change society as profoundly as cheap electricity did. In this lucid and compelling book, Nicholas Carr weaves together history, economics, and technology to explain why computing is changing--and what it means for all of us.This is a major shift in the mode of computing. The applications such as Google doc, Zoho writer are part of this shift in computing. It offers many benefits but requires a fast continued connection to the Internet. The Google app engine and Amazon EC2 computing services provide services that are classified as cloud computing. This development will also affect the business Internet service hosting and providers.
Here is a video from Web 2.0 expo that shows many participants of the expo explaining their view of Cloud Computing:
Cloud computing, once it becomes utility like electricity will make cost of computing extremely inexpensive and affordable.

Microsoft purchases Powerset Search Engine
Microsoft had been trying to compete in the search space with not much success. They also see the problem posed by the Google's threat to their monopoly. They tried to acquire Yahoo, number two portal on the web but failed. Recently, they acquired Powerset a search engine that uses semantics to provide more meaningful search results as compared to Google search that is based upon keywords.
The video provides an overview of Powerset search:
Powerset Demo Video from officialpowerset on Vimeo.
It would be very interesting to see how semantic search improves the search results. So far semantic web also known as web 3.0 is still in research laboratories. Search being such a basic function on the web will draw many users to it if it succeeds in providing better results.

How do you send short messages (SMS) from an SIMATIC WinCC flexible HMI station to a mobile phone?
- OP/TP177B color PN/DP
- Mobile TP177 PN, Mobile Panel 277
- 270 series
- 370 series
- PC with WinCC flexible Runtime
In case of failure the operator panel sends an e-mail (1) to the mixing station. The service technician responsible receives the message from the operator panel (2). The service technician then connects to the operator panel (3) from his service PC.
Fig. 01 - Example
More information on the topic of "Teleservice via the Internet" is also available in the following entry: 19865167.
You have the following options for sending text messages or alarms via SMS to a mobile telephone or to a pager:
- External providers make it possible to convert e-mails into SMS messages for mobile telephones and pagers.
- Your own SMTP server supports forwarding of e-mails via SMS message to a mobile phone or pager.
Example for sending a message via SMS:
So that an SMS can be received the service must be registered beforehand with the provider, e.g. T-Mobile (in Germany).
- Activating e-mail reception with a provider (Example: T-Mobile):
Send an SMS message from your mobile phone with the text "OPEN" to the T-Mobile abbreviated dialing number 8000. This opens your T-Mobile number for e-mail reception.
Your e-mail address is then:
T-Mobile number (incl. prefix)@t-mobile-sms.de
e.g. firstname.lastname@example.com.
Up to 160 characters are transferred.
- Deactivating e-mail reception (Example: T-Mobile):
If you no longer wish to receive e-mails, send an SMS message from your mobile phone with the text "CLOSE" to the T-Mobile abbreviated dialing number 8000.
More information is available on the websites of the providers concerned.
Examples of other providers.
- Configuration in WinCC flexible:
The e-mail functionality requires the license key "SIMATIC WinCC flexible / Sm@rtService".
In the WinCC flexible project tree "Bediengerät_1 > Device Settings > Device Settings", under "Name of SMTP server" you enter the name of the external provider or the name of your own SMTP server.
The provider must function without authentication. This means that the provider must work without user name and password.
You must make the settings under "Project > Device Settings" of the WinCC flexible project:
- Name of the SMTP server
- Name of the SMTP sender (as from WinCC flexible 2005)
- SMTP authorization (as from WinCC flexible 2005)
The "Sm@rtService" option is required to implement this. To enable messages to be sent as e-mails as well, the HMI system must possess an e-mail client.
In the project attached "mailto.t-online.de" has been selected as SMTP server, because it doesn't need authentication.
Fig. 02 - Device Settings
The "Name of the SMTP sender" input field serves as the Return Address, in which you can specify the designation of the HMI operator panel or plant designation or its location, for example. You have the option of entering an e-mail address in the "SMTP Authentication" input field. If authentication at the provider is required, you must specify a valid e-mail address in the "SMTP Authentication" input field, e.g. "email@example.com".
Providers that require an authentication with user name and password are not supported.
Alternatively you can also define the e-mail settings on the operator panel in "WinCC Internet Settings" in the "E-mail" tab. On the Windows CE Panel the same settings are to be found in the "Control Panel". Then deselect the "Use the default of the project file" option and enter the name of the SMTP server in the input field. This makes it easier to change the server name.
Fig. 03 - Windows XP - WinCC Internet Settings
Please note that settings on the panel or PC override settings in the project. Therefore, if the settings on the panel or PC are deleted, the defaults configured in the WinCC flexible project apply!
- Assignment of the e-mail address for alarm classes:
In order to send an SMS or e-mail when an alarm is triggered you must specify the mobile phone provider's e-mail address in the alarm class.
You can specify an e-mail recipient for each alarm class in the menu under "Project > Device > Alarm Management > Settings > Alarm Classes".
Fig. 04 - Alarm Classes
You can specify any valid e-mail address as recipient e-mail address (see Fig. 04) and it doesn't necessarily have to be an e-mail address of the same provider as the SMTP server. For example, you can specify the e-mail address "firstname.lastname@example.com" as recipient e-mail address and use the SMTP server (outgoing mail server) of T-Mobile ("mailto.t-online.de").
- Assigning the "SendEMail" system function:
If you wish to have an e-mail sent only in the case of a specific alarm, you should use the "SendeEMail" system function. In the project tree under "Device_1 > Alarm Management > Discrete Alarms" you can assign the "SendEMail" system function to each alarm under "Events". Analog alarms are configured in the same way.
Fig. 05 - Discrete Alarms
Assigning parameters for "SendEMail"
For the parameters of the system function "SendEMail" you can assign predefined texts and addresses or assign "Tags" to each parameter.
In the example attached tag names have been assigned for the parameters "Address" and "Return address". In this way you have the option of changing the address (recipient of message) and the return address (address to which the message might have to be forwarded) later.
Not all the parameters of the "SendEMail" system function have to be assigned a text/tag.
Fig. 06 - Sample project

from Chapter III: Aurelian and the Restoration of the Empire:
As soon as he was informed that the great army of the Danube had invested the well-known valour of Aurelian with Imperial power, he sunk under the fame and merit of his rival; and, ordering his veins to be opened, prudently withdrew himself from the unequal contest.
Stay tuned, dear blog readers. Stay tuned.

As fuel prices continue to climb, organizations in Northeast Ohio are providing aid to their employees. According to a recent survey released by ERC (Employers Resource Council) on practices organizations are utilizing to provide gas relief to their employees, the most common form of relief offered were gas gift cards. Among the other most common practices were offering flexible scheduling opportunities for employees including compressed work weeks and telecommuting options to decrease time spent commuting. Some organizations are even providing their employees with educational resources on topics such as how to increase gas mileage.
Most Common Forms of Gas Relief Provided by Local Organizations
Among the least used forms of gas relief were increasing wages and salaries, offering incentives to use public transportation, providing cash, rewards, or bonuses towards alternative means of transportation, and organizing formal carpools, though some organizations are using these forms as well.
According to the Society of Human Resource Management (SHRM), rising fuel costs certainly do not help with the retention of employees, particularly talented and skilled employees who commute long distances. Employers, nonetheless, can use gas relief in its many forms as a competitive advantage to assist their employees. Transportation benefits are among the lowest-cost benefits an employer can provide and may lead to significant tax savings in cases of providing mass transit options via pre-tax dollars .
"Employers don't need to spend a large amount of money to help provide relief to their employees," says Marty Mordarski, Director of Research and Membership. "Helping employees find a carpool partner within the organization that lives close to them, providing bike storage for employees, offering information on how to increase gas mileage, or instituting a compressed work-week option to eliminate at least one day of commuting are just a few inexpensive ways employers can help employees cope with rising fuel costs."

Bald is beautiful … and a career boost, study finds – Life Inc.
Looking for an edge at work? Break out your razor. A new study says that men with shaved heads are perceived as more dominant, more masculine, and more suited for leadership roles.
The lead researcher, Albert Mannes at the Wharton School of Business, decided to go "bare up there" in his mid-thirties when he was starting to lose his hair. And people started treated him differently. He then designed a series of experiments to test what people really thought of guys with shaved heads.
In the first tests, he showed participants pictures of similar-looking men with shaved heads and those with hair. The men without hair rated statistically significantly higher for dominance. They were also rated as being 3 years older, and slightly less attractive.
To isolate the results further, Mannes devised a second experiment. He showed a panel pictures of men with hair. He also showed pictures of the same men with their hair Photoshopped out. The panel rated the men with shaved heads higher for dominance, confidence, masculinity, and leadership potential.
But get this: The panel also said the guys with shaved heads were an inch taller and could bench-press 13 percent more weight than the guys with full hair.

With the loss, the Bulldogs fell to 7-1 on the season and 0-1 in the North Division. Holmes hosts Coahoma Monday at 8 p.m.
The Rangers scored 17 of the game's first 22 points and took total control into the half. Northwest led 46-25 at halftime.
Holmes used a 62 percent shooting percentage in the second half to get back into the game. A 17-7 run ending with a D'Angelo Richardson three-point brought the Bulldogs to within seven at 66-59 with 6:06 to play. Holmes pulled within four and as close as 73-70 with 33 seconds left, but a late free throw from Northwest sealed the game for the Rangers.
Holmes was led by Richardson's 16, one of four Bulldogs in double figures. Cedric Harper had 14 points, Daryl Macon had 11 and Xavier Williams had 10. Harper and Demarkis Weatherall each had seven rebounds for the Bulldogs.

Editor of Anthology of African American Women's Historical Writings on KAZI Book Review February 20
Laurie Maffly-Kipp, co-editor of Women's Work: An Anthology of African-American Women's Historical Writings from Antebellum America to the Harlem Renaissance, is a guest on KAZI Book Review, Sunday, Feb 20, 12:30 p.m. on KAZI 88.7FM. Listen live online at kazifm.org.
This book surveys the creative ways in which African-American women harnessed the power of print to share their historical revisions with a broader public. Their speeches, textbooks, poems, and polemics did more than just recount the past. They also protested their present status in the United States through their reclamation of that past. Bringing together work by more familiar writers in black America-such as Maria Stewart, Francis E. W. Harper, and Anna Julia Cooper-as well as lesser-known mothers and teachers who educated their families and their communities, this documentary collection gathers a variety of primary texts from the antebellum era to the Harlem Renaissance, some of which have never been anthologized. Together with a substantial introduction to black women's historical writings, this volume presents a unique perspective on the past and imagined future of the race in the United States.

Capertee Valley is know as the Grand Canyon of Australia and the towering scenery shows it all.
I came to know Capertee Valley when I was searching for a place somewhere in Lithgow to visit for a weekend getaway. It caught my attention when my search in the web pop up with the word "Grand Canyon of Australia" and is just located north of Lithgow in New South Wales. My curiosity as to how this place was named and actually look like resulted to a weekend trip to this place during April 2012
Aerial view reflects more how grand and significant the canyon is.
A man who resides in the area told us while we were looking for a direction that stunning views and rock formations of the Capertee Valley are exposed in the Glen Davis. With his articulate direction and convincing ideas we drove down and hit the narrow, dusty, unpaved Glen Davis Road of Glen Davis.
Capertee Valley at Glen Davis
This is the Capertee Valley located in the Central Tablelands, a 30-minute drive north of Lithgow or a three hour drive west of Sydney. The Capertee Valley is said to be longer than the Grand Canyon of USA by almost a kilometre and is the world's second largest canyon.
Dr. Karl Kruszelnicki, a well-known Australian science communicator said that the Capertee Valley in Australia is wider than the American Grand Canyon but it's not as spectacular, and because of Australia's antiquity, not as deep. Although the Grand Canyon is undoubtedly 'grander', Capertee Valley as a canyon is 1 km wider, and also longer than America's Grand Canyon. That is the interpretation of a great man.
Well, as pointed out by the man on our way, there were indeed significant views in Glen Davis, valley was awesome and invigorating with an atmosphere alluring visitors to visit the place and explore the hidden beauty.
Bordered by the Garden of Stone National Park, this valley is famous world wide amongst bird watchers, and also its beautiful rock structures- amongst which is its 'pagodas' are magnificent.
It is a stunning place which has its own monolith called Pantoneys Crown, very visible when driving down to Capertee Valley.
Some visitors have commented well that the Capertee Valley was a stunning place, and of course, being west of the Blue Mountains has not generated the fame it should! Most Australians would prefer to travel to America to see the Grand Canyon, rather than drive 3 hours from Sydney to actually see the world's largest canyon.
The valley first came to prominence in the 1930s, not for the landforms that rose from its floor but for the vast geological deposits that lay beneath. The Capertee Valley, it turned out, was far more than just escarpments, canyons and rugged, towering monoliths. It was also home to one of the planet's largest reserves of high-grade oil shale.
The bitumen road that winds its way through the valley ends at the small town of Glen Davis, built in the 1930s to service an oil shale industry that ultimately failed to live up to its promise.
Glen Davis became a virtual ghost town in the 1960s but now is a kind of beacon that draws you up through the valley for no reason other than to see just how far you can go.
Glen Davis Boutique Hotel
As we drove further down the road of Glen Davis, we were surprised to see that a hotel lies in the middle of the valley, beautiful hotel with the backdrop of a stunning mountain, complete with visible tennis court.
Well, this is the story of the hotel. When built in 1939 the Glen Davis Boutique Hotel was described as the finest hotel west of the Blue Mountains. The uniqueness of this one of a kind venue has seen it featured on the Great Outdoors and Sydney Weekender. The Hotel was also the accommodation selection for the promotional release campaign for Australia, the movie, and its national historic significance is illustrated in the 2011 publication `Great Australian Hotels`. The hotel can accommodate 40 guests and caters to weddings, functions, winery tours and conferences.
Facilities include 20 metre saltwater pool, tennis court, trampoline, private bar, pool table and separate function building. Children welcome.
Wolgan Valley
After our trip to Capertee Valley, we drove back up and visited the Wolgan Valley. We're a bit lucky when we went to this place; weather was fine including the temperature. Initially the road that leads to the valley is two lanes but as you go down it becomes narrower almost one lane and zigzagging, a precarious road with a cliff on the other side, so a bit of slow, careful driving is necessary, but once you reached the valley down, views are spectacular!
The valley is approximately 150 kilometres west of Sydney and just south of Glen Davis. It includes sections of the Wollemi National Park and the Gardens of Stone National Park.
This is a great place where photographers would surely enjoy shooting nature at its best. We had a limited time left for the day when we reached the valley. There are some interesting places to visit here, so if I had a chance, I would like to set foot once again into this picturesque canyon preferably for a longer period and probably will camp out at Glen Davis to further explore the place.
Sunset was about to fall soon that day and we hurriedly drove back up and headed for home. By the way, commercial tourism came to the valley in 2009 in the form of the Wolgan Valley Resort and Spa.

Do you have some of the same foods in your refrigerator now that you had growing up?
Do you have some of the same foods in your refrigerator now that you had growing up?
Not at all!
I have asparagus, green onions, mushrooms, yogurt, milk, grape juice, bottled water, swiss cheese, apples, ground flaxseed - none of which my mom ever bought. I have no idea how I grew because our meals were very devoid of nutrition. We never even had milk in the house. I can't imagine not having milk for growing kids.
^^I can! Mother frowned on milk (unless for cereal) as a drink for anyone over 6 months old! She used a LOT of fresh vegtables-we had 3 or 4 every night. She never once served meat loaf or macaroni & cheese! All fresh,all the time. Me-not so much!
I didn't start out to collect diamonds, but somehow they just kept piling up.-Mae West
We always had milk because my dad was the milk man. Seriously. I only keep it in small quantities though. I've come to believe that milk is only necessary for baby cows. You can get plenty of calcium from leafy greens. It's just hype from the milk industry that tells us otherwise.
My parents' fridge has always been very healthy and they don't keep ANYthing tempting in it. My mother figured if it wasn't in the house, we were far too lazy to go buy it.
My fridge is fairly similar, but I'm a little less disciplined than her.
What are you looking at, sugar-tits? - Mel Gibson
I have the bare essentials, but they are pretty close. The only thing my Mum would "tsk" would be my margarine. I refuse to give it up no matter what, at lasts longer, is cheaper, and is at the perfect consistancy for spreading on bread. When they make a butter that even comes CLOSE or if I ever make more than 26Gs a year, I'll do butter.
"In the face of the blinding sun, I wake only to find
that Heaven is a stranger place than than one I've left behind." - SM
My contents are somewhat different, but not radically so. I have a lot more spicy condiments -- in fact, my friends call me the condiment queen -- but my mother was a good, and pretty health-conscious cook for her time. She's even more so now.
We lived with my grandparents for a few years. This was the man that provided my vegetables. Except for fresh salad, it was all frozen, canned or boil in bag.
The Jolly Green Giant.
In the far left of the refrigerator were these items.
Not exactly steamed crab in Old Bay Seasoning.
(That's herring in sour cream)
Some of the stuff is the same. We ate a lot of frozen veggies growing up, especially in the winter. In the summer, we had a lot of fresh veggies. A lot of the staples are the same. Things like rice, potatoes, egg noodles, soups, etc. My mom always cooked a nice dinner for us.
Chalet...Steamed crabs and Old Bay I'm a Baltimore girl!!
My fridge is completely different from my mum's, she is one of those people who concentrates on work and family, and food kinda comes last, so she's not the world's most amazing chef. Her fridge is usually full of milk, butter, cheese, sandwich meat, ready to put in the oven meals and pies and such, and always something for dessert for my dad. My own fridge is usually full of salad, mayonnaise, eggs, juice and beer haha.
I smile because I have no idea what's going on
No. I have--
bok choi, napa cabbage, mung bean sprouts, sugar peas, onions (3 kinds), apples (3 kinds), lettuce (3 kinds), spinach, oranges, cranberries, sweet potatoes, white potatoes, carrots, mushrooms, soymilk, tomatoes, walnuts, bell peppers (2 colors), beer, and various condiments.
I grew up with typical SAD garbage.
More or less, yeah. Lots of fresh veggies, cheese (though my mum kept a lot of varieties), yoghurt, fish, chicken and chocolate.
I have similar tastes to my mother-neither of us cares for processed foods and we both rarely eat read meat. Of course, there are differences: growing up there were always red peppers and really hot spices around, which I loathe. My mum also loves nuts, which I can take or leave, and I never buy juice unless I have people over (I prefer freshly squeezed stuff). Oh, and I've developed an unfortunate habit for diet coke, even though we never had soft drinks in the house when I was growing up.
not really. the fridge in my house growing up actually had food in it! mine is usually empty except for coffee and milk and mustard.
but when i do buy groceries, there are similarities. i tend to buy lots of fresh veggies, meat (usually chicken, beef or fish), fruit, yoghurt, cheese (lots of varieties).
my mum's fridge usually had leftovers, fresh veggies, frozen veggies, milk, juice, tons of sandwich condiments (mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup, etc), pickles, butter, cheese, pumpernickel bread, meat, yoghurt, etc... my mother is a great cook and we never ate processed crap, always home cooked.
I'm open to everything. When you start to criticise the times you live in, your time is over. - Karl Lagerfeld
I was 19 when I moved out on my own and that was when I discovered just how bad our diet was the way mom kept it back home. All processed foods. We had been making our own meals sans mom since we were in middle school and the options were, lets see: Chef Boyardee, Pasta Roni, Pop Tarts, the list goes on.
Now I'm 22 and have realized I like mushrooms, olives, sushi, so many things I had never tried (tons of fruits & vegetables!)
It's tough and of course I have some pre-packaged things in the cupboard, but I'm trying to make my fridge resemble that of my parents the least amount possible.
"Give me your love and I'll give you--the Perfect Love Song!"
Not even close. I grew up eating a lot of beans and cornbread because my parents didn't have a lot of money. We ate that at least twice a week, and everything else was fried in Crisco.
I keep the fridge stocked with lean meats, veggies and low-cal/low-fat foods.

A forester, a legislative staff, and a project evaluation officer proved to be writers and gender equity advocates in their own right when they won the Civil Service Commission's (CSC) Essay Writing Contest.
Besting 204 other contestants, the first place winner is Marlyn B. Delos Arcos (Forester I, Department of Environment and Natural Resources CENRO Tandag, Surigao del Sur), followed by Joselito Narciso B. Capariño, (Legislative Staff Assistant II, House of Representatives, Quezon City), and Herita O. Macarubbo (Project Evaluation Officer II, Commission on Population, Tuguegarao City), in second and third place, respectively.
Done in celebration of the 112th Philippine Civil Service Anniversary (PCSA), the contest was themed "Lingkod Bayani Working for Gender Responsive, Accessible, Courteous, and Effective Public Service." It aims to bring the attention of civil servants to government's crucial role in addressing issues relating to gender.
In her essay "Active Participation, Not Just Attendance," Arcos discusses women's participation in a male-dominated environment. She relays her experiences in the field, and how she saw the potential of women in contributing to environmental and socio-economic development in the community level.
Capariño's essay, "Ang Lingkod Bayani sa Pagsusulong ng Isang Gender Responsive, Accessible, Courteous, at Effective na Serbisyo Publiko," is the only winning entry in Filipino. He focuses on the concept of equality in public service, and how it is every state worker's obligation to ensure fair treatment of people, regardless of gender.
Macarubbo, on the other hand, opted to explore strategies by which to eliminate gender-based discrimination in the way public service is rendered. Her essay, "Making Public Service Gender Responsive a Reality," presents gender sensitivity as an essential factor towards becoming a true servant-hero.
Stella Eloisa Marquez-Fong, Development Alternatives with Women for New Era (DAWN) Global Secretariat Program and Administrative Officer; Ma. Lourdes Veneracion Rallonza, Ateneo de Manila University Department of Political Science faculty member; Ricardo L. Saludo, former CSC Chairperson; and Rolando B. Tolentino, University of the Philippines College of Mass Communication Dean comprised the board of judges.
Winners received plaques and cash prizes worth P30,000, P20,000, and P15,000 for the first, second, and third place, respectively. This is the second year that the CSC held the PCSA essay writing contest. You may check out the winning entry on the official PCSA blog, www.celebratepcsa.wordpress.com.

For the record, I'm no expert when it comes to this Hollywood thing. I don't have any particularly good advice to give, just my experiences to share. Sometimes, I discover something that works. But, most likely, it works for me only. Occasionally, you might find something that works for me also works for you. And I guess that's why somebody might be interested in reading my stupid musings.
With that said, I just went to a book signing by a professional agent named Tony Martinez. This was a private book signing, so we got to ask a lot of questions. He gave a lot of answers. It sounds like agents hate managers, and vice-versa. But one of the surest ways to screw up your career is to get with a bad manager with a bad reputation.
Anyway, I don't have a manager and who knows if I ever will. But he also said that it's way harder these days for an unknown actor to get anywhere in Hollywood anymore. Why? Because of two basic phenomenons: Reality TV and veteran movie stars doing TV.
These days, many of the new shows and just pilots for new shows require their talent to be name actors -- celebrities. They want someone recognizable, bringing instant familiarity. That's the reason why Paris Hilton has carte blanche in Hollywood now. Everyone knows her, for one reason or another.
So, this agent, who doesn't represent A-listers, has some stories to tell in his new book, which should provide insight for beginners like me. (I've linked the book at the column to the right, along with some other recommendations the author made.) I bought his book yesterday and will begin reading it on the plane later today. Well, that is if they'll let me get on a plane. Apparently Backstage West just issued a recommendation for the book and it's been sold out at Samuel French bookstore ever since. They said that it's like sitting down in a bar with an agent and hearing him speak.
He gave one anecdote that I want to share. Sean Hayes was an unknown actor with a blank page for a resume. A small boutique agency gave him a chance just on his likeability. So then there was this pilot floating around for several years called Will & Grace. They even shot it a couple of times but no network would touch it. So, along came Sean Hayes and -- BAM -- instant career. I don't watch the show so I don't actually know who Sean Hayes is. I'm guessing he's Will. Then again, he could be Grace.
So with all the doom and gloom being forecasted for the industry, it's the little anecdotes and footnotes of someone making it big that keep you going. But you gotta start somewhere, and you need an agent, just to get in the game. (I'll get to that as soon as I gather my thoughts.)
I used to go to this church in the University District in Seattle. The pastor told this story of the monk who prayed to God to let him win the lottery. So, the lottery came and went and the monk didn't win. The monk asked God about it and God said, "You could've at least bought a ticket."
I should end it there but a friend asked me yesterday to buy flight insurance and put his name as the beneficiary. He said he'd pay me back if the plane landed safely. He claims it's his way of taking care of "everything" for me. And, of course, he'd get to drive a new car to the funeral. But I just called it the $20 Travel Insurance Lottery. I think I won't buy it just to spite him....

Signs and Omens
I think I would have made a good cavewoman as I believe in signs and omens.
Last week a friend called who is going through a hard time in different aspects of his life. It's the type of situationw where you can deal with it if it's just one aspect, but not here.
When we hung up, I sat there and thought about him for a few moments and then flipped on the radio and the first thing I heard was "Everything's gonna be alright" over and over. I recognized it as the chorus of that old reggae classic "No Woman No Lie," but sung by someone else.
Turns out it was the Fugees which I can't say I know anything about other than the name. In fact, when I went to iTunes, I initially did a search spelling it Fujis, like the mountain, like the apple.
No go.
Then I tried Fujees, and got back that mild reprimand DID YOU MEAN FUGEES? Well, yes, I suppose I did.
So I emailed him to tell him the omen of hearing the song. He called me this morning to say he's downloaded it and played it 17 times. Since the call this morning, I have had "Everything's gonna be alright" in my head, which is not a bad notion for my brain to be stuck on.
Everything's gonna be alright. Really.

Week Two (and a half) July 19, 2006Posted by Amanda in Uncategorized.
It is much harder than you would think to find an internet cafe in the States. Hence the lack of updates on here. But at the moment we are in Pittsburgh airport where our flight to New York has been delayed for three hours.
So what have we been doing? Last week we were in LA for my cousin's wedding. We were too busy to get to see much of the sights but where we were staying at Palos Verdes was amazing. The apartment had a view right out over the Trump golf course and the ocean. We will try not think about that when we go into our first hostel tonight in New York.
The wedding was great (the photos are on Flickr which I am still trying to link to this blog). Then on Friday night we flew to New York with Mum and Dad. We stayed in a great cheap hotel on the Upper West side (Seinfeld area) called Hotel Newton.
We went up the Empire State building and shopped- more about that later.
The last couple of days we have been in Pennsylvania where we went to see Falling Water, the house designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. That was a real highlight. We also stayed in a great little town called Ohiopyle and went to a battlefield from the French Indian war called Fort Necessity.
Today we fly back to New York for five days staying in the East Village- should be fun. See my other posts for more detail about the specifics.

I want to write about this game, I really do. I'm about 55 hours in and really enjoying it. My weekends consist of playing this game, wishing I was a Phantom Thief. It's amazing.
I want to write about it, but I want to wait until I'm finished it first. One thing I want to write about now is the battle system and that in the year 2017, Persona 5 is not afraid to present players a turn based RPG.
Final Fantasy X, one of my favourite games ever, featured perhaps the best turn-based battle system of any RPG. Persona 5 gives it a good run for its money, with players free to plan their turns and look ahead (although only as far as the next character/enemy) to make their decisions.
It's fun and rewarding. You can exploit weakness to gain extra turns and pass those turns to other party members. Careful passing of your turn to other members can result in a near instant victory. On the other hand, it can be punishing as enemies also gain extra turns for exploiting your weaknesses.
The game demands you use your skills and abilities and does not look to compensate you by providing opportunities to heal party members all that easily.
It's awesome. Don't get me wrong, I totally dig Final Fantasy XV's battle system, but it's just not the same.

Cleanzine: your weekly cleaning and hygiene industry newsletter 21st June 2018 Issue no. 827
Your industry news - first Number 1 for Recruitment
We strongly recommend viewing Cleanzine full size in your web browser. Click our masthead above to visit our website version.
Hygiene Group is the right ingredient for Cereform
Contract cleaning specialist Hygiene Group, is working with one of the UK's top bakery ingredient companies.
Cereform manufactures a wide range of ingredients used in the UK baking industry at its 420 sq m facility in Northampton. One of its key products is bread improver, which is used by many of the country's top bakeries each day to control the baking process and optimise the consistency and appearance of bread products. The company produces approximately 250 tonnes of bread improver each week at the site.
Hygiene Group's team was brought in to carry out overhead cleaning work at the factory, which involved working with scissor lifts and an extended boom to clean the cladded metal ceiling - which features an 18ft apex - as well as the girders, walls and pipework throughout the facility.
"We were very impressed with the team from Hygiene for several reasons," says Robin Bailey, factory manager at Cereform Northampton. "Firstly, they have all the right certification and are clearly very experienced in the cleaning of food manufacturing environments, which aren't always the easiest to operate in.
"Secondly, because we are such a busy factory, closing down production while the cleaning was carried out really wasn't an option for us. Working closely with the team, we were able to move process areas around to accommodate the cleaning and their flexible approach and professionalism meant they were able to work around us to complete the job, without any interruption.
"They were a great team who simply got on with the job and have since been back to carry out further cleaning for us and I hope we'll be working with them again in the future."
Steve Bailey, managing director of Hygiene Group, adds: "Our dedicated team of cleaners has undertaken specialist training in working at height, which was a key requirement for this job. This project demonstrated the strength and flexibility of our services to meet the needs of a wide variety of customers in the food manufacturing sector."
A market leader in the supply of ingredients to the baking industry, Cereform is part of AB Mauri, a division of Associated British Foods.

mitch hedberg is dead. :-(
i love that funny motherfucker. if you've never heard him, i suggest you take a listen right here: http://www.mikeindustries.com/blog/archive/2005/03/mitch-hedberg-rest-in-peace
he makes me giggle like a stoner. he saved my life whilst driving cross country with a car-load of folks who didn't understand the concept of entertaining the driver so's they don't fall asleep. the guy who brought the hedberg cd is forgiven, of course. they are all forgiven, actually. i hope they all have forgiven me for being such a psycho. it was one of those rights-of-passage things, methinks. the kind of thing that you don't understand WHY you're doing it in the moment, just that you must.
the trip is far enough away that it has undergone that amazing transformation into something truly wonderful... and it is no longer the painfully excrutiating thingamajig that i thought it was, during the experience. it was dope. those folks are fly by me. alright.
it's too bad mitch had to go the way of the inspired comic... john belushi, chris farley, mitch hedberg... to the limit.

Fido (An electric scooter built by vintage scooterists)
This one is hard for me. You see, I have loved the Fido since before there was a Fido. And the first photo brought me in even closer.
Yep, it was love at first sight!
Check out the Fido Useful video
Check out the cool 'stache! and the teaser video
On the more personal side, I know my own finances and have known all along that I can not afford to buy ANY new electric scooter. But I have held onto a hope of buying a new Fido all through its development. And I held onto that hope until the price was finally announced. The first batch is up for pre-order with a price tag of $10,500. When I found that out, I realized that the Fido is out of my reach and I worry that it will be for many others as well. I wish them great success and hope that they find buyers who are able and willing to make the investment for a very cool and capable machine.
Monday MotorBikes (Formerly the Bolt M-1) (An electric moped built by vintage mopedders)
Love it with the spoked wheels
While I've never looked at the Fido and thought - hey I could build (a reasonably acceptable version of) that, I have done that with the Monday. [If you're ambitious in that way, check this out: 1977 Mopeds Indigan Roller. Just order that without the gas motor, add batteries, a motor, some brackets, a controller, and a throttle. ;-) Everything is so simple on the internet!]
That looks like fun to me!
To be fair, you'd spend a lot of time and money doing it, but a reasonably acceptable version (with a lot fewer cool features) could be built in a garage.
but it's pretty cool with mags too
On the other hand, for $6,000 you can buy this rather cool bike with very few headaches and lots of cool features like Bluetooth this and USB that and keyless other stuff. (You know you love instant gratification.)
The Monday is definitely an interesting machine as far as it capabilities. It's a 20mph e-bike in Economy mode, but it's a 40mph motorcycle in Sport mode. (I believe that Sport mode doubles the voltage from 24-48 volts.)
It is a very cool machine, and $5,995 is an attainable number for some of us.
Now, let's go a little goofy! Double K sent me this link this week and I knew I had to share it with you!
48 volt, 350 watt, 19 mph, all the usual stuff
Just your friendly neighborhood MotoChimp
I haven't found anything to indicate that it's headed to the US any time soon, but goshdarnit, it's adorable!
Can't you just see this thing in a Gorillaz video?
Other Bits of Related News this week:
Piaggio announced that they are finally getting ready to produce an electric Vespa.
Zero Motorcycles announced their 2017 line-up.
I think that's everything.
May you find your gas-free ride and may the air clear.

I went down to Port Laoise recently, to deliver some paintings to the Dunamaise Arts Centre, and I met up with my old friends there, from Port Laoise Prison. They were teachers, I might add, not inmates, and they reminded me of the time when I was teaching art there, a few years ago.
Port Laoise Prison is a maximum security prison and there are soldiers on the roof with live ammunition and such and you have to go through all sorts of searches and security gates to get to your students – but I must say I never felt any concern or hostility while I was working there. In general, the prisoners are more relaxed because they have an interest and the classes break the monotony of the day for them. When the prisoners are relaxed, the guards are more relaxed – so it makes life easier for everyone. It's a very unnatural situation to have hundreds of men – prisoners and guards – living in close proximity like that, and tensions can rise over small things. So the teachers make a significant difference to the situation and I always admired their dedication and patience.
What really annoys me is the people who give out about the prisons, those "lock 'em up and throw away the key" merchants. I think it's a total waste of taxpayers' money to put people in prison and not do anything to rehabilitate them. For some prisoners, prison education is the first chance they have of seeing possibilities outside of their own narrow world. More often than not, they wouldn't have had much of an education in their youth, because of circumstances beyond their control. For them, this is their first chance of imagining a different, better future for themselves. If teachers can enable that, then they are doing us all a service.

Hedge fund service provider Kinetic Partners has made three hires for its distressed hedge fund practice.
Trenton Acuff, Michael Bryant and Jenna Gordish will join the company's expanding insolvency practice; all three will be based in the New York office.
Acuff joins Kinetic Partners from FTI Consulting, where he advised clients on financial restructurings and forensic investigations. Bryant comes from KPMG, where he worked on the financial audit, and risk and compliance teams. Gordish joins from PricewaterhouseCoopers, where she oversaw the development and stress testing of auditing procedures in an area of significant risk for alternative investment managers.
"In the first two quarters of 2011, we've seen a number of investors become focused on pursuing redemptions requests that were initiated in the fall of 2008 but have yet to been fully satisfied," said Geoff Varga, who leads Kinetic's distressed funds practice. "At the onset of the crisis in 2008 and in an effort to facilitate the stable liquidations of portfolios, many funds implemented gates or suspended redemptions that were expected to be completed over the ensuring two to three years. That time has now come and gone and for those funds that have not met those objectives, it is unlikely that investors will be willing to give managers further time without outside assistance or a definitive plan.
"Consequently, we anticipate that there will be an increasing trend during the latter half of this year of investors looking to scale up their efforts to redeem their invested money. We are also seeing a number of managers of these illiquid funds come to the conclusion that realization efforts must be revamped, including the engagement of advisors like ourselves, to bring additional workout experience and transparency to the process."
Kinetic Partners is a global professional services firm providing forensic, corporate recovery, risk, regulation and compliance, tax and audit and assurance services to the asset management, investment banking and broking industry.

A Forgotten War
Upon entering 'A Soldier's Tale' at Asia House, an exhibition documenting the experience of British soldiers who fought in the Korean War, you are greeted by Jiho Won's towering 'Construction for Deconstruction'. The sculpture is reminiscent of the bamboo scaffolding seen on construction sites throughout East Asia.
This association with traditional scaffolding hints at the Republic of Korea's rapid growth since the ceasefire in 1953; although bamboo looks flimsy, it is surprisingly strong, light and versatile. This is a testament to the strength of the Korean people in overcoming apparent fragility to build a strong nation today.
The Korean War is often known as the 'Forgotten War', as many feel that the scope of the conflict has been overlooked and the suffering forgotten. Yet the Korean War claimed over 1.2 million lives and the conflict has never been resolved.
The Korean peninsula was divided by allied forces at the end of the Second World War. The separate sides set up contrasting systems of government and division soon escalated into conflict. Hostilities came to a head in June 1950 and the Republic of Korea (South Korea) sent out a plea to the United Nations. Within months, twenty member states answered the Republic of Korea's call for assistance. The second largest force was sent from the United Kingdom; of the 56,000 British combatants, 1,000 lost their lives.
Speaking at Asia House on Monday South Korean MP the Rt. Hon. Choung Byong-Gug, whose own school meals were funded by foreign aid, said that 'A Soldier's Tale' was a "pledge" to the British veterans "to never forget what you contributed to us".
Exhibition Curator, Stephanie Seungmin Kim, insists that 'A Soldier's Tale' "is not a manifesto of political views or ideological endorsements". Instead the exhibition should be seen as a documentation of memories and a setting down of emotions, a reflection of people and places, of lives lived and lost and the fading past.
The Korean War ended with a ceasefire in 1953 and peace has so far proved elusive. 'A Soldier's Tale' commemorates the 60th anniversary of the ceasefire. The exhibition focuses on the experiences of soldiers who fought in the Gloucestershire Battalion of the 29th Infantry Brigade. Artists, both Korean and from elsewhere, met and worked with these veterans to create the unique and poignant works on display.
'Soldier's Universe'
The exhibition begins with a section titled 'Soldier's Universe'. A major theme of 'A Soldier's Tale' is the process of forgetting; with many of the veterans approaching their 80's and 90's, living memories of the conflict are gradual fading away. Anna Paik's touching portrait of David Kambler OBE, 'Portrait of an Old Soldier with Baekdoo Mountain', is a poignant expression of the tragedy of forgetting. With no family and declining health, there is a danger that David's story, like so many others, could rapidly be lost.
The Gloucestershire Battalion of the 29th Infantry Brigade are revered for the heroism they displayed at the Battle of Imjin River in April 1951. During this bitter fight four Battalions, three British and one Belgian, held their ground for three days against a numerically superior opposing force.
Lieutenant General Van Fleet of the United States Army reported that the Gloucestershire Battalion fought "until the last gallant soldier… was overpowered". Despite eventually being overcome, the three days gained by these efforts thwarted an attempt from the opposing side to recapture the city of Seoul.
Inspired by the Battle of Imjin River, Leenam Lee's beautiful 'Park Yeon Waterfall' is a moving ink painting played out on three consecutive LED screens. The work evokes traditional images of a peaceful past and the flowing of time. Complete with falling spray and an audio of flowing water, Lee's piece represents "water still running through a divided land".
When leaving the 'Soldier's Universe' you will pass the riot of red chrysanthemums that is Jeong Hwa Choi's 'Winter Garden'. Whereas white chrysanthemums are symbolic of grief and mourning in East Asia, red chrysanthemums are given as gifts and represent affection. The 'Winter Garden' then can be seen as a token of gratitude presented to the veterans who fought at the Battle of Imjin River.
'500 – Returned', Suknam Yun 's installation of 750 small wooden figures, is scattered throughout a dark gallery. With each figure given a unique face, those who fought and fell at the Battle of Imjin River are given individual identities, rather than just numbers on a list of casualties. This forest of faces is a reminder of the millions of forgotten lives claimed by the Korean War.
'The Enduring War'
The final part of the exhibition, 'The Enduring War', refers to the long stagnation and recent escalation of tensions between North and South Korea. Although the Korean War ended in a ceasefire, peace has eluded the peninsula for the last sixty years and its' people continue to live in the shadow of conflict.
Leenam Lee's surreal 'Cartoon Folding Screen' is a video sequence played out in the form of a traditional screen painting. The sequence begins with conventional, quiet landscapes, yet the tranquillity is gradually disrupted by surreal images of bombs, cartoons and tortured city-scapes that erupt from peaceful mountain sides.
This surreal world can be seen to reflect the reality of Korea's recent history. The sequence ends with falling snow that covers the madness of the transformed landscapes and returns the screens to the quiet paradise of a traditional ink painting. This can be understood to represent the fragile yet enduring hope that divided Korea will one day see a return to peace.
'A Soldier's Tale' brings to light many issues surrounding the situation in Korea today, from past conflict and loss to regeneration and remembering. Although 'A Soldier's Tale' does say things about Korea's past and uncertain future, it is primarily an exhibition about individuals; the British soldiers who fought in Korea, the people of the Republic of Korea who rebuilt their country from the ashes of war and the people who still suffer from the conflict today. 'A Soldier's Tale' documents these personal experiences. In the words of one veteran, experiences "in a distant land, where I hope we did some good".
'A Soldier's Tale' exhibition is at Asia House until 20th July 2013 – Entrance Free
