Well, Avery is still just a sweet little princess......with some attitude. We're working on that. Who can blame her though with bro hitting on her and pulling her hair??? Some days I wish she would just have some super power strength and club him a good one. Problem is, he would probably just laugh. Anyhoo, Avery and I had some mommy/daughter time away at a hotel this past weekend. The goal was to do whatever the little princess wanted to do, with no interruptions. So, what did she choose do, you ask? We checked into the room, took our shoes off and jumped on the bed. Then she headed for the remote and pushed buttons like a mad woman. Then we went out to eat and got icecream. Then back to the hotel where we painted toes, did crafts, played games, took a bath, pushed buttons like a mad woman again on the remote, and ate princess snacks while drinking a princess drink. She loved it. Then around her bed time (which she told me when that was) she was ready to go home and see daddy. It took her a while to catch on to the plan, which was to STAY ALL NIGHT. When we checked in I had tried to talk her into getting her own bed, but she would have nothing to do with that. She said she might get scared. So much for mommy getting a good night's sleep. So, we got the king.....and she slept right next to me....then perpendicular to me.....then partially on me.....then perpendicular again. I didn't sleep too great. But we had a wonderful time and she's ready to do it again.
She's still doing great in her preschool. She loves to read the letters of words and read numbers. She can say her phone number. We're working on the days of the week. Also out of the blue, she told me when her birthday is. I didn't even know she knew. She loves to go in Ian's room at bedtime and say a night night prayer and sing to him. It's really cute to hear her pray. She thanks Jesus for EVERYTHING! Last night, she thanked God for Uncle Josh and asked Him to protect his heart and his BOTTOM! I almost called Uncle Josh and asked if there was a problem with his bottom.
Latest Avery sayings:
**When we were getting on to the elevator to go up to our room at the hotel (she HATES elevators), she stood outside of it and said, "Mommy, I don't want to get on the ALLIGATOR."
**There's a song we listen to that says, "Come where the peaks meet the sky." However, when Avery sings it, it turns to, "Come where the PIGS meet the sky."
**The other day she asked for a video that we don't even have at our house. So, I asked her, "Avery, where did that come from (meaning where did that thought come from)?" She waited a minute then said, "It came from my mouth."

Burton defender Ben Turner has signed a new two-year contract.
The 29-year-old has extended his stay at the Pirelli Stadium, having joined the Championship club on a 12-month deal last summer.
Brewers boss Nigel Clough said: "Ben started 38 league games last season – he only didn't start eight and we lost six out of those eight, so you can see how important he is.
"Also, despite being 29, we think he will still be better next season.
✍ Ben Turner has today signed a two-year deal with #BurtonAlbion!
Full details ➡ https://t.co/MDBAHTtz7E#BAFC pic.twitter.com/vmfaJPzSXs
— Burton Albion FC (@burtonalbionfc) June 12, 2017
"His previous injury problems with his ankles were the only question mark last season and he has proved himself by the amount of games he has played.
"Now he has had a season with us, we think he will improve and show even more of the qualities he has. He played as well as anybody towards the end of the season."

Okay so this won't be a completely wordless post because I want to explain that I have seen several blogs that do a wordless Wednesday and I liked the idea so I am going to borrow it.
Wordless Wednesday will just be a picture, no words, no explanations (other than this one!)
I am attempting to do more blogging and the idea of having some theme days was inspiring. And I really like themes. Recipes and crafts are some other themes I am toying with so stick around to see what I come up with!

Dave's Chosen Charities
One in three of us will get cancer and it's the toughest thing most of us will ever face. If you've been diagnosed with cancer, or a loved one has, you'll want a team of people in your corner supporting you every step of the way. Macmillan Cancer Support provide practical, medical and financial support and push for better cancer care. The number of people with cancer is growing every day. Macmillan Cancer Support want to reach and improve the lives of every one of those people.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurological condition which affects around 100,000 people in the UK. Most people are diagnosed between the ages of 20-40, but it can affect younger and older people too. Roughly three times as many women have MS as men. The MS Society is the UK's leading MS charity. Since 1953, they've been funding research, giving grants, campaigning for change, providing information and support, investing in MS specialists and lending a listening ear to those who need it.
Help for Heroes' stated mission is to deliver an enduring national network of support for our wounded servicemen and their families. They aim to inspire and enable those who have made sacrifices on our behalf to achieve their full potential. The war in Afghanistan may be nearly over, but for those who have suffered life-changing injuries, their battles are just beginning. Help for Heroes pledge to not let them fight those battles alone.

Stephen Fry » Blog Archive » Device and Desires
Stephen Fry has started blogging. His one and only post thus far is more a short story than a post – about his obsession with the quest for "The One" handheld digital device. We can all identify with that. It will be interesting to see what Stephen Fry: Techy sounds like and whether his blog will focus on these sort of things or range more widely.

Cuba has already confirmed 387 athletes for the Pan American Games in Toronto and could complete a delegation of about 480, said Jose Antonio Miranda, director of the high-performance department at the National Institute of Sports, Physical Education and Recreation (INDER).
Speaking to Radio Rebelde, Antonio Miranda pointed out that the bulk of Cuba's outstanding contributions is focused on track and field, currently standing at 121 athletes with almost 80 more expected.
He added that the already-confirmed athletes number 194 women and 194 men, and highlighted the sense of commitment that carries the day in the Cuban team's preparation for the Games from July 10 to 26.
Antonio Miranda Cuba's first-place rank in the Central American Games in Veracruz in 2014, pointing out that it has become an incentive for the Cuban team to adjust and prepare itself for the demands of the Toronto games.
He acknowledged Brazil's progress as it prepares to host the upcoming Olympic Games and the drive of the host, Canada call for maximum efforts, especially in track and field itself, boxing, wrestling, rowing, shooting, wrestling and judo.
Asked about other aspects of the situation, Antonio Miranda mentioned the increased government and corporate support for teams in other countries competing, and the presence of Cuban, European and Asian experts contributing to keeping the ranks of athletes in top shape.
He also emphasized that similar efforts outlined in Cuba rest upon the strong foundation of the Institute of Sports Medicine and other entities in the sector, ensuring athletes the necessary support.
Antonio Miranda announced meetings aimed at boosting the comprehensive training of athletes, coaches and professionals with experts in different fields, along with visits to student, labour and defence institutions.
Meetings held under the name "Assets of Dignity" heightened the significance of the work, with athletes from each sport recognizing and affirming their commitments ahead of what will prove to be a test of their concentration, performance, discipline and patriotism.
"The challenge is to do things right all the time, because each performance will have its own worth," said Miranda, highlighting the importance of holding on to Cuba's second-place rank in a confrontation in which the island is not participating in at least 133 medal events.
"Our goal is reflected in the motto that we defend," he said about the athletes' conviction to "Let Us Make Our Homeland Proud."

I'm so excited about this Friday Lingerie Lust post because I simple adore The Lake and Stars. I love their advertising shots (watch out this a picture heavy post!) and the sexy simplicity of their lingerie. The Lake and Stars is the creation of two Brooklyn based designers, Nikki Dekker and Maayan Zilberman. I believe the label showed at Fashion Week this year, with a presentation in NYC.
They use an interesting mix of textures in their designs: mesh and velvet, tulle and lace. Many of the lingerie pieces could be worn as RTW*, from their Fall 2011 collection at least.
You can buy The Lake and Stars from several boutiques and retailers listed here: including net-a-porter and Azaleas, one of my favourite lingerie boutiques in the East Village.
I'd be really interested to hear your views on The Lake and Stars, Blog Reader, the pieces have a feel of being designed for many different occasions from sporting events to the boudoir and I wonder what you you think about this diversity from a very modern and chic looking brand.
Have a great weekend everyone!

If anybody bothers to check this blog regularly you will have noticed that the number of posts has dropped dramatically in recent months. At the same time I made a pledge that I would review every gig I went to in 2015 and I WILL do that, even though some of the reviews are now six months overdue.
One possible reason I haven't blogged as frequently is that the four local bands I was so passionate about in 2013 have slipped a bit off the radar; Pips are on hiatus, Four 45s don't play as frequently and aren't quite the same band and Strangers In Paradise always seem to play on nights I'm doing something. And the fourth band; Recovery; the ones I had a 100% attendance rate at one time …
Recovery never split as such but the band ground to a halt and further set of personnel changes left Jonathan Skinner as the sole founder member and Gav Ramsay went from being the new boy to the second longest standing member. It was a good time for a change of name to The Omega Era and for a fresh batch of songs. As to whether Recovery and Omega Era are the same band it is debatable. For those of my generation (born early 80s) it's not entirely dissimilar to the question of whether Megatron and Galvatron were the same person. Or, for Only Fools And Horses fans, a bit like the question of Trigger's broom.
There are reasons why Recovery didn't lead straight into the Omega Era. Jonny Skinner was of course busy with a solo single (I'll come back to that) and residencies at The Den and 10 Devonshire Place. However during this time he and Gav recruited Ryan Jones on guitar and James Dye and set about forming a band.
Perhaps it was this relatively long rehearsal period that set Omega Era apart from Recovery. The earlier band were a group of mates who gigged without much though before realising they had something special. Omega Era, by contrast, have spent months honing their sound and getting the EP ready to go before hitting the gig scene in earnest. The craft showed.
The CD launch formed part of a showcase for various Harrogate bands at the 360 Club, one of many live music venues in or around Leeds City Centre (I think it's about the fifth I've been to in 2015). If the truth be told it was far from my favourite, being strangely claustrophobic although the acoustics were good. Omega Era were the second act on the bill, behind PseudoNympho and just ahead of Hellfire Jack. The latter, while not entirely to my taste, are always a difficult act to follow but Omega Ema made it look easy. Put simply, they've not only had the practice but have perfected a strangely complex sound that takes repeated listen to fully unravel. Gone are the poppier moments of Recovery in favour of a sound that hops on the border between rock and metal with Skinner's imperious voice frequently vanishing into the murk but always to emerge again.
I've since heard that Jonny has scaled back his other musical commitments to concentrate on the band. If there is any criticism of the EP (entitled Alpha and being given away at the ridiculously generous price of £0.00) it's that it doesn't reveal the dimension that the frontman, at least, is capable of – it's a shame that the stronger Recovery songs like Modern Army and Sunrise might be gone for good and quieter numbers (not just Keep The Candle Burning but also the brilliant 2013 piece Drive) would complement Omega Era's distinctive rock sound nicely.
However that's just a nit pick. The bottom line is that, unless Strangers In Paradise put out a new EP before the end of the year, the Harrogate rock scene is unlikely to see a better release.

Mass Media in Pakistan
I n Pakistan, the availability of mass media falls much short of international standards. For example, i n Pakistan 1.8 copies of newspapers, 2.9 radio sets, 0.6 T.V. sets and C. 5 cinema seats were available for every 100 persons as compared to the UNESCO suggeeion of 10 newspapers, 5 radio sets, 2 T.V. sets and 2 cinema seats for 100 persons. The facilities in Pakistan in this area as i n other social sectors are lower than the average for South-East Asia Region. This is connected with the low rate sf literacy and low per capita income levels.
2. The development programme included in the Fifth Plan, 1978-83, envisages f ucher growth of radio and television in particular and other informatlon m ed~a.rl general. Besides increasing the rural coverage both in terms of i
area and population, emphasis will be placed on adult functional literacy and non-formal instructional programmes in collaboration with the Government agencies concerned.
3. The major public sector media agencies are Pakistan Broadcasting Corporation and Pakistan Television Corporation. The expansion of physical facilities is subject to financial constraints because these agencies are not covering their normal operating expenses and a subsidy has to be provided to them. Steps have to be taken not only to improve their working efficiency but also to initiate measures to achieve a better ratio between income and expenditure. Objectives
4. The main objectives for the mass media sector during the Fifth Plan will be:
(i) T o bring in larger areas and population of the less developed regions within reach of radio and T.V. signals.
(ii) T o strengthen the role of the media in instructional and educational fields specially for the less privileged sections of the society. (iii) T o create awareness o qthe problems and prospects of rural development through the media In order to win support, cooperation and participation of the people for accelerated growth in rural areas. (iv) T o improve the operational efficiency and s tr~ngthcnhe performance t
of the media in general and of radio and T.V. In particular. ( y ) T o make the media professionally and technically proficient in effective handling of development support communication in order to consolidate the past achievements in the economic field and realise the future targets end objectives of economic planning.
To mtiuld the information and entertainment content of the programme in such a way that the listenersY/viewers'interest is maintained. BROADCASTING
5. Radio i n Pakistan has made considerable progress as a vehicle for spread of information and a s a source of entertainment. It has, however, been comparativelv less effective in its educational role. The Government is fully conscious of its ~ otential n bringing about socio-economic change and is i
aware of its capability of motivating people towards progress through systematic educational and instructional programmes. This capability springs from the advantage that radio enjoys over other mass media in terms of cost, reach and iml?act. Broadcasting facilities can be expanded at a comparatively lower cost as against those of television, film and the press. Radio reaches the maximum number o f p e ~ p l enstantaneously and is suitable both for the educated and the i
illiterate. The transistors have made it poss~blet o overcome the constraint of electricity,
Development in 6970-78
6 . I n 1970, the area and population coverage stood at 25 per cent and 62 per cent respectively, compared to only 6 per cent and 21 per cent in 1947. The objective of development during 1970-78 was to further extend a ad strengthen the basic medium-wave coverage i n the country and to provide second channel broadcasts at the major stations. Priority was attached to expanding external services with a view to projecting Pakistan abroad. Some of the major schemes completed during this period were (i) two medium-wave transmitters of 120...

One can purchase books from many places like book stores, supermarkets and shopping malls. The choices of online shopping portals are also available to the readers. Readers can find many cheap books on these sites. To get the cheap books, online portals are the best places since they provide many attractive benefits to the customers. The online book stores also provide the books that are not available in the markets or are out of stock.
The specific book stores on internet offer various lucrative schemes and deals also. Free gifts, huge discounts and sometimes even the books are given free of cost to the customers. Hence, the readers can find the cheap books on the online shopping portals and enhance their knowledge by reading them.
As a result, one place you can get free audio books is the wild and dangerous world of peer to peer networks, also known by the names of the programs that people commonly use to access these networks, including Limewire and Bittorrent. But here's the rub: just about every single thing you'd find out there is going to be illegal, illegal to have made available and certainly illegal to download and enjoy. Proceed with caution.
An interesting alternative is your public library. I bet that they have a pretty good selection of books on tape and, to a lesser extent, books on CD, which you can then rip and copy onto your Lyra or other mp3 player (think "Apple iPod" here). Legal? Well, if it's for your personal use, one time, I think it's within the original vision of public lending libraries, personally.

text: Neuro-engineer Ken Beverley (private conversation) mentions the change as a result of technology as producing a physiological response of endorphins in the brain, which can be felt as a threat or a reward, but is inevitably a spur to some action. Saba (2003) discusses the distinction between "anticipating emergent behaviors" and "directing them," and posits that the interaction should allow for change without determining it. This acceptance of uncertainty is the start, perhaps, of training oneself to adapt to whatever the new situation is..

What: The brief of this exercise was to show the command of illustration by producing an image where something has happened. I took the exercise suggestion of something which had been emptied.
Where: In the house
When: During the afternoon
How: First of all I had to do was to jot down some ideas; at first I had been struck by the exercise suggestion of showing something which was broken, but after looking at what I had to hand which was just glasses and bowls, I could not come up with a good composition which I liked. It was while sitting at a friend's 40th party that I observed someone clearing up a stack of empty beer bottles, I then re-examined the course notes and decided to change to the example of showing something as being emptied.
Since I do not drink beer and I was not going to procure a dozen bottles to pour down the sink, I examined a cupboard in the house where I stick empty bottles until we have enough to take to the bottle bank. In there were a couple of empty bourbon bottles including one limited edition bottle.
I remembered that the notes had mentioned advertising as an example of dealing with abstract ideas and I decided that I wanted to produce a single image showing several empty bottles of bourbon.
I then setup a light tent, correctly this time around, and after sorting out the background I experimented with different light setups until I got the shot that I wanted.
D80,Aperture f/4.8, Shutter Speed 1/60 sec, ISO 640, 48mm (35mm equivalent 72mm),Pattern Weight Metering Mode, Flash White Balance, Tripod Mounted, 18-70mm lens
What I learned
I learned from this exercise that is can take some experimentation and practice to demonstrate abstract ideas through illustration; however once the concept has been developed and it can be demonstrated.
I was unfamiliar with the concept of using illustration of portraying ideas, but I now understand the concept and also the concept of symbolism and the requirement to find the right symbol for the illustration of a subject or idea.

|Brief Summary
The current standard Swedish infection prophylaxis in colorectal surgery is intravenously administered cefuroxime and metronidazole. this combination is well studied. The disadvantages of the regimen is "collateral damage" resulting from treatment with a cephalosporine and that the combination also serves as the first line of treatment for abdominal surgical infections.
Serval Swedish surgical departments have for some years used a combination of orally administered trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and metronidazole.
The combination is economical and believed to be effective but hitherto the outcome have not been properly researched.
The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of these two regimens in the prevention of infection after elective colorectal surgery.

beat of my drum, call your girlfriend, dancing, edge of glory, girls aloud, lady gaga, music video, nicola roberts, pop culture, robyn
Having recently returned from a massive sojourn across Europe you might expect my first post back to about the conviviality of the Scottish people or the cheapness of beer in Portugal. You might even expect a post about the recent riots here in Vancouver and the subsequent heartwarming cleanup effort.
On all counts you would be wrong. I am nothing if not addicted to popular culture like a mainline heroine addict.
Find me a vein y'all because some serious pop culture exploded last week! It did so in the form of three new music videos from pop royalty: Nicola Roberts (amazing), Lady Gaga (amazing), and Robyn (amazing). However only two of them are any good and the Gaga video is frankly utter shite. Let's have a look shall we?
1. Nicola Roberts "Beat of my Drum"
The arrival of Nicola Roberts as a bona fide solo star has in no way disappointed! This video is killer! The off-kilter backup dancers! Nicola's outfits! The hair flip! The side-ponytail! PERFECTION! This really is a note-perfect video, having that indescribable kernel of affect, you want to watch it again and again. A-
2. Lady Gaga "Edge of Glory"
This really is an abortion of a video. Such a fantastic song wasted. Lady Gaga is a woman with the resources to simply reshoot a video if there are problems (as was reported) and yet she has allowed this monstrosity into the world. FOR SHAME. I'm all for a more simple video but this plain sucks. Edge of Glory is such a euphoric song but this video GOES NOWHERE. F
3. Robyn "Call Your Girlfriend"
The reigning queen of pop perfection has done it again as the zeitgeist seems to just keep on flowing from her bleach blonde bowl cut. Basically this is just Robyn dancing around a warehouse with some light effects and somehow Ms. Carlsson manages to make that not just watchable but captivating. It doesn't hurt that the song is ridiculously good either. That she is not the most massive thing on the planet is complete nonsense. A-
More on my trip later, including coming out to my Nanna to which she did not make this face:

Addis Abbaba, November 19th , 2016
Today, OCP and the Ethiopian Ministry of Public Enterprise announce the signing of a $2.4 billion partnership for the development of a world-class fertilizer platform, continuing their commitment to the development of a south - south partnership. This game-changing partnership is based on a common vision between Morocco and Ethiopia for sustainable agricultural development across Africa and reinforces economic ties between the two countries.
The first phase of the $2.4 billion investment will enable the production of 2.5 million tons of fertilizer per year through 2022, rendering Ethiopia self-sufficient in fertilizer and creating opportunities for exports. The plant, named Dire Dawa Fertilizer Complex, will produce fertilizer made from Ethiopian potash and ammonia gas, as well as OCP's phosphoric acid, taking full advantage of both countries complementary natural resources.
Its fully integrated design will regroup logistics, production, raw materials access, storage and transportation and will satisfy 100 percent of Ethiopia's fertilizer demand with high-quality, competitively priced and customized fertilizers. Excess capacity at the platform, coupled with its strategic location and a new railway connection granting access to neighboring countries, will enable export to the regional market.
An additional investment of $1.3 billion is expected to increase production to 3.8 tons per year by 2025 in order to meet growing local demand. At the end of this second installation phase, the plant will be made up of 9 units and increase annual fertilizer production by 50%.
This partnership will benefit from:

The rain was pouring like proverbial cats and dogs. Visibility down to zero and traffic moving along like an old cat on his last journey. And yet, the journey had its remarkable end, A Noise Within Theatre (ANW) in Glendale, California to see Much Ado About Nothing by William Shakespeare.
Outside, in the cold wet air, darkness prevailed. There appeared to be no one at ANW and upon further inspection, coming closer, only two drench souls were visible.
Were we there on the wrong night? No. The box office lights were on. And shortly thereafter a ticket being entered the room.
When entering ANW a calm prevails, the feeling is a welcoming warmth that permeates your entire soul. The warmth ness lifts you up the long flight of stairs. (And stairs never seemed so easy.) There you discover a packed house of eager theatergoers. Surely, by the look of things, this must be one of the most remarkable theatre companies in Los Angeles.
Much Ado About Nothing directed by Michael W. Murray is a grand production. Set in the town of Messina, circa 1890's this production is a costumed spectacle, with intelligent women and bewildered young men. Where the gorgeous dancers in beautiful masks scoff at harmony. And the shadows play on puzzled hearts as the night serves as a cloak for confused lovers. And in this darkness there is mischief, mirth, conniving peculiarities, and love. And oh, this is so much fun!
Beatrice (Torri Higginson) and Benedick (JD Cullum) are not in love, or so they say, in a way (to each other).
Hero (Lindsay Gould) and Claudio (Brandon Hearnsberger) are madly in love with each other but young love questions the other's true feelings. Or so they say. (In a way.)
Leonato (Apollo Dukakis) has invited the Prince, Don Pedro (Patrick O'Connell) along with his consorts Benedick, Claudio, Don John (Stephen Rockwell), Borachio (Steve Weingartner) and Conrade (Shaun Anthony) for a stay at his villa.
They frolic in the company of each other while enjoying the word play of man versus woman. They also try to find love.
But there's always a catch in love. Don Pedro's brother, Don John, not satisfied with his role in life, wants to create mischief and will stop at nothing to make the lovers life miserable. His games are serious, a yearning to destroy young love for reasons that are not entirely clear. Jealously may be his motive but revenge is certainly his drug of choice. And to top that off he's pure evil.
And when things start to get really serious in the second act, friends are pitted against each other and lovers are destroyed. But fear not, this is a comedy and things must work out in the end. (Or so they say.)
Prose aside, the makeup of the audience, has this blogger perplexed. It's not like any other audience you see in town. One can only imagine that students of the craft flock to see how imaginative things can be on stage. To study and learn the art of the craft and be entertained, all at the same time is a wonderful thing.
Cullum is an amazing actor. As Benedict he commands the stage. Coy when he wants to be, hilarious at times, and dramatic when the action calls for it.
Higginson's Beatrice is just as commanding. Lovely when she wants to be, funny when appropriate, and oh so serious at times.
O'Connell's Don Pedro gave a masterful performance. He grew in stature as the night wore on. Just an amazing performance!
Mark Bramhall as Dogberry gave a performance of a lifetime. He is an actor in the moment and hilarious. Certainly a performance to watch, study and steal from. His imaginative choices kept all eyes on him and his next move.
This was a wonderfully cast also featuring Peter Larney as Balthasar, Mitchell Edmonds as Verges, Alicia Bruckman, Maxwell Schneller and Peter Larney as Members of the Watch, Abigail Caro as Margaret, Heather Grace as Sarah, Jonathon Lamer as Father Francis, and Hugh Mason as Antonio.
Michael W. Murray, as the director, does a magnificent job. He is very creative, and imaginative as he moves the actors delicately across the stage and even sometimes have them groveling on the floor. This is a very funny production and easy to understand.
Soojin Lee as the costume designer does a marvelous job. Check out her amazing work on www.soojinlee.com.
Julia Rodriguez-Elliott choreographs a couple of dance numbers, which were just incredible and thought provoking. Well worth the price of admission.
Not sure how ANW (Geoff Elliott and Julia Rodriguez-Elliott) does it, but do it, they do. One hit show after the next! And the craft is nothing short of excellent! Los Angeles deserves A Noise Within. Run to see this production and support this excellent theatre.
ANW is breaking ground on a new facility in Pasadena. Please go to their website at www.anoisewithin.org and support the theatre and it's move.

If you are on the underground, going shopping, or in any crowded place, it is a ripe opportunity for thieves and pick-pockets to strike.
The Police have released the following precautions you can take to reduce the chances of your becoming a victim.
1. Use a handbag that can be closed fully and properly, preferably with a zip.
2. If you use a handbag with a strap, wear it across your body, not just resting on one shoulder, so it is more secure.
3. You can use a purse lanyard which attaches your valuable items (like phone, purse, wallet etc) to your bag or clothes.
4. If you do have to keep your purse or wallet in a shopping bag, put it in the bottom, covered from sight, and if possible, use a bag that can be closed.
5. You should be as careful with your mobile phone, iPod, Kendle, or Tablet Computer as you are with your wallet or purse, and be careful where and when you take it out for use.
6. Men should carry their wallets in a front pocket instead of in their back pockets.
7. You should register your valuables onto the free on-line property database by following this link.

I recently purchased all four polishes from the Going West Collection by Enchanted Polish and I completely feel in love with Flashing Lights, a gold glitter holo. It's SSOOOO sparkly and holo! It's great on it's own so I decided to use it. Plus, I saw someone on instagram post a mani using Flashing Lights and China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy (a favorite of mine) and it looked so great, just the neon and the holo-ness goes so well together. Of course, my camera went a little crazy with the neon so I couldn't capture it accurately.
I love this combination! I'll probably be adding some nail art to this though, maybe a leopard print! I hope you guys like it!

I really have no idea why Thanko has invented the Chin Rest Arm; having said that I must admit that's my take for more than half the things coming out of the Thanko stable. I'm wondering what is it that you can't do with your own two hands that there would be a need for this Chin Rest Arm. Let's see, what if I wanna finish my blog but I can't, just can't take a second off to rest so the arm will help. Or maybe if you wanna pray without falling on your desk the arm will keep you in place. Now that I am coming up with bizarre situations this does seem useful. This multipurpose, posable, movable, plastic hand will help keep your head up when you're really sleepy and wanna fool your boss. He can look at you sitting erect but can't see your shut eyes. Way to go! Hi-five to the artificial hand!
You can also use it in place of a neck pillow as its soft, cushioned exterior makes it comfy. It's like a body pillow…for your face! This festive season get one for all the siesta lovers in your office. Sells $40 a pop.

Senior Erven Roper (Easley, S.C.) drove in four runs, while Tommy Richter (Wayne, Pa.) and Joey Mundy (Huntington, W.Va.) each picked up three hits, as the College of Charleston baseball team weathered a late-inning rally by James Madison in a 12-11 rubber-game win on Sunday afternoon in Colonial Athletic Association play.
With the win, College of Charleston evens its overall record at 16-16 while remaining atop the CAA standings with a 7-2 mark in league play. The loss drops James Madison to 17-13 overall and 3-6 in CAA action.
The Cougars plated 12 runs on 15 hits and eight walks, compared to 11 tallies on 12 base knocks and five free passes for the Dukes. Charleston recorded a season-high four stolen bases – including two from Dupree Hart (Rock Hill, S.C.).
Mundy and Richter each recorded a trio of hits, while Luke Manzo (Marietta, Ga.) reached base five times via three walks and a 2-for-3 effort at the plate. Roper tied a career-high with four RBIs and recorded the first triple of his collegiate career; Mundy, Bradley Dixon (Greenwood, S.C.), and Ari Sechopoulos (Windsor, Ontario, Canada) each drove in two runs.
Jakob Frishmuth (Myrtle Beach, S.C.) went five innings to pick up his second collegiate win, while Carter Love (Charlotte, N.C.) struck out four in three no-hit frames for his second save of the season.
Ky Parrott paced the Dukes' offense with two hits – including a home run – and four RBIs, while Fox Semones went 3-for-5 with an RBI. Brett Johnson and Kyle McPherson each picked up two base knocks.
James Madison starter Josh Silvestri lasted three and one-third innings while allowing five runs on seven hits in a losing effort. Tucker McCoy surrendered five runs in one frame of work, while Michael Evans tossed two shutout innings late.
The Cougars jumped out to an early 3-0 lead with one in the first and two in the second, including a two-run single from Mundy in the second. A two-run fourth would push the advantage to 5-0 following an RBI single from Manzo. After Parrott homered to lead off the JMU, Johnson singled home McPherson to cut the margin to 5-2.
Charleston would answer with a six-run fifth to push the lead to 11-2 – an inning capped by a bases-clearing, two-out triple down the first base line by Roper. James Madison began to rally in the home half, with two runs on back-to-back RBI groundouts to trim the margin to 11-4.
The Dukes continued the comeback effort with a six-run inning of their own in the sixth, as Semones, Zach Tondi, and Ryan Coale each tallied RBI singles before Parrott capped the frame with a two-run double to center to cut the lead to 11-10.
The teams would trade runs in the seventh, as Logan McRae (Florence, S.C.) plated Hart with an infield single before a bases-loaded hit-by-pitch answered for the Dukes in the home half. Both sides stranded two in the eighth – including a pair in scoring position for the Cougars – before Love retired the side in order in the JMU ninth to seal the nail-biting victory.
The Cougars will return to the diamond on Wednesday when they make the short trek to North Charleston to face in-town foe Charleston Southern at 6:00 pm.

CNN- Worms Can Invade Your Brain from Eating This Common Food
Surprisingly, there was an article which explains that there are numerous ways of getting worms which attack your brain, including pork. This was announced in the CNN news.
Brain Worms from eating certain Dangerous Food
There are many types of tapeworm, three of them easily infect human brain. From a health perspective, there's one in particular to watch out for. "It's mainly the pork tapeworm that's the main one brain," says Helena Helmby from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.
A human being can be infected with this worm (taenia Solium) in two ways: Taeniasis, adult worms that live in the intestines, which can get in the consumption of under-cooked pork and via the worm larvae, which you can get by coming to contact with contaminated human or pig feces. If the worm larvae entrance to a nervous system, including the brain, it can lead to a condition called Neurocysticercosis.
If you've seen certain of the recent videos of the awful factory pig farms then you might not be surprised.
The next time when you are thinking about a bacon and vegetable sandwich, think of the dangers pork represents and replace it with an avocado. Avocados are a natural miracle which provides a lot of health benefits and unlike pork, will not result in brain-eating worms!

Ortlieb's piano update
My Sunday March 13 post about Ortlieb's Jazzhaus in Philadelphia mentioned the sorry state of their house piano. Apparently, they read my blog and decided to do something about it as noted in Michaels Klein's "Inqlings" column in the Philadelphia Inquirer.
The same article mentions that Joe Piscopo (of Saturday Night Live fame) might be open to running for Governor of New Jersey. I had nothing to do with that.
The article text:
"Ortlieb's Jazzhaus in Northern Liberties, one of Philly's longer-running jazz rooms, is passing the hat for a new piano. "It's been here about 16, 17 years," says owner Pete Souders of the club's existing 88. "It's pretty well beat-up." The first of several benefits will begin at 8:45 p.m. tomorrow. Souders will allocate the door charge ($10) to the cause, and the featured act, Luvpark, will donate its fee. Souders says the club is looking for a 5-foot-2 or 5-foot-3 Baldwin or Yamaha baby grand, new or used."

Sebastien Lanson In Town
Sebastien Lanson is here visiting from Spain for a few weeks and is playing guitar on Wednesday, March 16 at Blondie's Bar and No Grill in San Francisco from 9 to 12 with Wil Blades on the Hammond B3, John Worley on trumpet and Fil Lorenz on sax. Killer combo.
He will also appear with John Worley's group, Worlview, at the Sunnyvale Community Center on Friday at 8pm.
Good to see you Sebastien!
Philly - Day 3 - Jon Cleary
Sunday night and Jack takes us to a new venue in Philly. WXPN, the public radio station of the University of Pennsylvania sports a new format and studio that houses The World Cafe Live. Upstairs is the acoustic folk coffee house type atmosphere. Downstairs is a state of the art gourmet dinner theatre.
Jon Cleary plays New Orleans style piano for Bonnie Raitt but tours as the leader with the Absolute Monster Gentlemen. This band is so funky that I hurt my neck doing that chicken head thing. Jon plays piano and Hammond B3 Dr. John and Professor Longhair style and sings too. The band is super tight. I especially liked the guitarist, rockin and soulful but I don't know his name. Lori bought 3 CDs.

Philly - Day 2 - Ortlieb's
Saturday night Jack takes us to Ortlieb's Jazzhaus. The club is on a tiny street and as you approach it appears to be under construction. It is a long narrow room with the bar on one end, the restaurant on the other and the band in the middle with just enough room for one table and an aisle between the band and the opposite wall. The ambiance and the characters that frequent this club are half the show. The other half is the incredible house band.
Bootsie Barnes on tenor sax leads this Philly hard bop band. He is authentic and alive.
With him that night was Duane Eubanks (brother to Robyn and Kevin) on trumpet, hot and cool.
Sid Simmons played heroically on the Otlieb's notoriously bad piano and made it sound great. I wish I had a picture of the worn fall board (thank you Judy).
Ortlieb's owner, retired systems programmer Pete Souders, normally sits in for a few tunes early in the evening but blew baritone sax all night, stopping only to fix the toilet in the women's bathroom.
The seating arrangement is frustrating but this is pristine bebop as it was and still is in Philly.

Philly - Day 1 - Terence Blanchard
Last week, Lori attended a conference in Philadelphia and I went along to visit some good friends. Jack steered us to 3 great shows.
On friday, the University of Pennsylvania hosted A Spike Lee - Terence Blanchard film festival. We caught the end of a film score lecture and then the concert. Zellerbach Theatre in the Annenberg Center for the Perfoming Arts is a beautiful small theatre with an excellent sound system and interesting lighting.
Terence Blanchard heads a 6 piece band for this performance and played music from his newest CD. Terence's playing is at once strong, intense and clear yet he himself is casual and funny when speaking. The music is modal, dynamic, odd metered and captivating. Keeping in the Art Blakey Jazz Messenger tradition from whence he came, Terence continues the legacy by showcasing the incredible musicians in his band, everyone of them a great composer.
Lionel Loueke is from Africa and plays the guitar in a percussive style that I've never seen before, and I've been half way around the world. His vocals harmonize and compliment Terence's trumpet. Amazing. They performeded at least one of his compositions.
Brice Winston on saxophone adds spice to the music yet his presence is understated. He holds a B.A. degree from the University of New Orleans and has played with the Marsalis family and Dizzy Gillespie. He played his ass off.
Aaron Parks played an electrified grand piano that supplied some of the underlying musical currents and special instruments. His part was also understated but he played interesting solos. A new young lion, he graduated college at 18.
Derrick Hodge, 25, on bass composed a few of the tunes and showed a depth of experience and understanding. He has toured with Mulgrew Miller.
Jemiah(?) Williams, 20 years old, sat in for the regular drummer with one rehersal and drove the band like he had been there for years, quite a challenge as the tunes have so many time changes. His solos were phenomenal.
Terence gave us an inside look at Spike Lee, why and for who he makes his movies. I have a new appreciation of film score and for Terence Blanchard. This band is an inspiration. Look for these musicians in the future.

Are you among the many millions who have excessive fat around the tummy? Belly fat can be a health risk along with looking extremely unpleasant. Folks often search for the most beneficial physical exercise with regard to abdominal fat in the hope that there's some exercise they are able to do to shed fat deposits from around their stomach.
Thus, how you can you get rid of stomach fat? The simple truth is there's no magic pill. The vital thing you will need to be aware of is that there's no specific physical exercise intended for stomach fat. You cannot merely select where to lose weight from. That's not the way in which the body operates. You can't just try to find an exercise which will reduce body fat close to your stomach or waist.
When we take up a diet plan for instance the green tea diet, 9 times out of 10, the first spot they'll lose weight from is around the neck and also face. Once you begin to gain pounds the ultimate place that you'll put it on is about the abdomen or belly, as a result when you begin to diet, the very last location you will lose it from is across the belly.
For this reason the most effective physical exercise for stomach fat is the identical exercise to lose weight in general. Drop the idea of doing situps or ab crunches or any additional stomach muscle building exercises which are methods of how to get perfect abdominals. Stick to workouts that will enhance your metabolic rate. Once you increase your metabolic rate you start burning body fat at a higher speed.
With the mixture of the right workout routines and also the right diet plan, as long as you stay motivated you'll get fit and also get rid of the belly fat. Do you realize those who register with a diet newsletter will be more than seven times more likely to shed weight because they stay inspired? Stop asking the actual question 'how can I lose my belly fat' and simply just start out doing some physical exercise!

LONDON - Britain's own hero of liberty, the Crusader, battled hand to hand with the Nazi's armored weapon the Iron Cross.
It was a cataclysmic battle high above the rough seas of the Channel but the Crusader proved no matched for the Nazi's death machine. The Crusader plummeted to earth defeated while onlookers watched helplessly.
"Just as you're worthless icon fell at my had," shouted the Iron Cross over a type of built-in loudspeaker. "so shall your weak allied forces fall before the might of the new Reich!" He then flew off back towards the occupied mainland.
The Crusader was rescued by sea and appeared to be battered and bruised but his fighting spirit was strong as he vowed to face the Iron devil once again.


text: For the final edit I just have to adjust some features and sort out a few effects such as adding extra boarders to just try and cover up the tracks of the boarder of the lense. There were also issues with other effects such as adding in a cctv cam and transposing footage onto the moniter which unfortunately couldn't be seen to fruition. The ending is in sight, after the final cut, the only things left to do are to create the DVD cover and DVD menu. This has been a long but rewarding road.

Para a criação desta organização eu me guiei por alguns dos princípios que ao longo de minha vida encontrei para me tornar altamente eficaz.
Acredito firmemente no valor da aplicação destes princípios para lidar com tarefas de grande importância, como é a de encontrar meios de aliviar o sofrimento humano causado pelo câncer.
Daniel Keith Ludwig wore cheap shoes and eyeglasses, carried a plastic raincoat when it rained, flew economy class, and carried his own bags. Neighbors thought he was a mid-level manager. He was not. Ludwig was one of the wealthiest men, one of the few billionaires in the 1950s. He was reclusive and Time magazine complained that Ludwig was "so publicity-shy that almost nobody knows what he is up to." He was up to many things, with more ships than the Greek tycoons Aristotle Onassis and Stavros Niarchos. Ludwig owned potash fields, oil refineries, coal mines, oil companies, luxury hotels and giant master-planned communities. He was also engaged in the largest entrepreneurial effort then undertaken by one man--Jari, a massive effort to convert a large swath of the Amazon to produce lumber and food. It was a disaster, financially and environmentally. Award-winning author and biographical profiler Daniel Alef reveals Ludwig's amazing story. [1,398-word Titans of Fortune article]

A Day in the Life of a Naturist
(Carina: ecstasy of existence)
Uploaded By Peter Berzerker
Written by Petter Hegre, Fly on The Wall Productions created a documentary about Carina who has chosen to live a life as a Naturist in a community in Southern Brazil. The film is entitled, "Carina: ecstasy of existence". The story is about Carina, a university student who describes her life in a community of Naturists that show no difference between the textile world and the Naturist world; except the sole difference that Naturists are clothes free. Yes, Naturists do get clothed too, Carina would love to go to school naked but as she describes, she has no choice but to get dressed or be thrown in jail. Even if it is hot outside as it is. She blames society for that; she is right. Carina and every other Naturist/Nudist enjoy the freedom of being clothes free just as we were all born without what today's society likes to think that nudity and sexual-ism are automatically related when in fact that is not true. As a Naturist, sexual-ism and nudism are not related.

Enjoy the film =)

Paragraph2: How television and media make an impact on ADHD
:source-Lawrence Diller
Paragraph3: The shortcut to why Ritalin is used, pointing out doctors, family, social surroundings as a problem.
Paragraph4: ADHD may be transmissible however ADHD is magnified due to Doctors and the way ADHD is looked at by others.

if one of my arms turned into a wing, would i believe i could fly?
21 comments:
- Raji said...
You would, being someone who is dwelling on possibilities, be busy trying to, at least.
- October 6, 2010 at 9:43 AM
- Lazarus Lupin said...
would you believe you are an angel?
- October 6, 2010 at 10:31 AM
- anne artist said...
no, l.l., i would not believe i was an angel. i hear the siren's song and that might interfere with playing the harp in an appropriate manner. i leave that for others with skills in that dept.
and yes, raji, i might believe that only a few feathers would enable me to fly and so approach my life as if that were possible.
my question is, would i believe i could fly because i see bird's wings? if so, would i believe i could be myself and not a bird and still fly?
- October 6, 2010 at 12:00 PM
- The militant working boy said...
You would be able to fly and still be part of the earth. But is being able to do both worth sacrificing the ability to do either well?
- October 6, 2010 at 12:12 PM
- anne artist said...
mwb, that is a huge question.
at this point, i am wondering if i might want to do both. life has taught me about my own imperfections. if i flew moderately well, then i would not believe i was a great flyer and so could relax and soar and laugh at my mistakes.
on the other hand, which in this case might be a wingtip, if i could fly really well, i could ride incredible thermals........
- October 6, 2010 at 12:18 PM
- David said...
I think only one wing could not help you to fly....
- October 6, 2010 at 10:23 PM
- zzyshhh said...
Wont be begining to change? & be free as a bird?
- October 7, 2010 at 11:56 AM
- anne artist said...
z, i like this......it's about change....and change enables us to fly to somewhere new......
- October 7, 2010 at 12:07 PM
- anne artist said...
l.l., i received your comment and am looking forward to having some idea what it is about. i'm in texas, an ancestor was davy crockett.......so please translate into texan! or some other form of english....i can even speak californian on a good day.....

from the poem Pangur Ban
Practice every day has made
Pangur perfect in his trade;
I get wisdom day and night
Turning darkness into light.
- October 7, 2010 at 1:58 PM
- anne artist said...
yes, wisdom......there is a topic.......
what is darkness?
- October 7, 2010 at 2:58 PM
- Lazarus Lupin said...
you help my wisdom greatly
One thing
if you
one wing
you would be unique
for everyone
would have 2 arms
or 2 wings
I was told by a wise priest
that in the dark everyone is different
light brings us together shows us what brings us together
dark brings us apart and isolates
- October 7, 2010 at 3:20 PM
- anne artist said...
if everyone is different in the dark, can we see that? i mean, what can we see in the dark? can we even see ourselves and if not, are we also separated from ourselves?
i am wondering if the light enables us to have the clarity to see.....
i most probably am unique even if my wing has not sprouted. or maybe it is there and i am not aware of it.,
but then so is everyone else is unique in his or her way...so i can connect through that.
you help me learn as well. thank you for your presence.
- October 7, 2010 at 4:20 PM
- Sally Ang said...
Because is only one of my arms....i wouldn't believe i could fly ....because before i believe i need to have thots of whatever i know ....just like the image of a flying bird....both sides are wings .....a qn....what is the use of one of my arms turned into a wing ....when the other remained unchanged ....it did not help at all ....when i want to believe something that really works ....i need to have concrete support and evidence that the believe will become a truth ....
- October 7, 2010 at 9:19 PM
- anne artist said...
s.a......like the athletes who visualize themselves running really fast prior to a race?
if one of my arms did turn into a wing, i would wonder what the change would lead to. i would wish to orient myself to the experience somehow.
if i believed i could fly even if i could not, where might that take me?
- October 7, 2010 at 9:45 PM
- anne artist said...
l.l., i am interested in your choice of words....you speak of light bringing us together but also:
"dark brings us apart"
the word "bring" is there in both contexts....interesting.
- October 7, 2010 at 9:49 PM
- Lazarus Lupin said...
bring does imply that the light and the dark are both actors. Shepards of contrast.
- October 7, 2010 at 11:11 PM
- anne artist said...
so, shepherding....had not thought of that image before.....so you mean, darkness guiding/herding us to separation and i, like a sheep, following it to isolation?
then am i also the sheep being herded into oneness?
i had not considered this before. interesting......
- October 8, 2010 at 8:48 AM
- Anonymous said...
You can... but what about when you are in a supermarket?? little uncomfortable... "Excuse me, take me some sugar please, you see, my wing..."
Should it be better having a -pair- of wings, but into my mind?
I necessarily need of a single piece of feathers to fly...??
I sincerly hope you havent that wing behind your shoulders! *u*
- October 9, 2010 at 2:41 PM
- anne artist said...
g, thanks for wishing me well......yes, one wing would be an unusual experience and would make simply activities like grocery shopping a bit of a challenge!
i do like the thought that i could use the wing to fly to another.......to connect........

Ivermectin adverse effects – Автовокзал столиц Cvs rich price for stromectol, farmacias online almost ivermectin reverend treat imagine threadworm, ivermectine robe off patent
The safety of oral ivermectin in pregnant and lactating women and young children has yet to be established. Male genitalia, female breasts, the gluteal crease, waistband, and antecubital fossae also are frequently affected. At the end of four and eight weeks, all but two patients in the ivermectin group and all patients in the permethrin group had been cured this difference was not statistically significant. Comparison of ivermectin and diethylcarbamazine in the treatment of onchocerciasis. Comparison of ivermectin and benzyl benzoate for treatment of scabies.
Is Stromectol (Ivermectin) A Perfect Treatment For Scabies? Best Scabies Treatment: Dr Scabies Home Treatment for Scabies, How to Treat Scabies
Photo by Copyright (c) USAG-Humphreys 2016
A field study of the effects of ivermectin on ectoparasites of man. Equivalent therapeutic efficacy and safety of ivermectin and lindane in the treatment of human scabies. A comparative study of oral ivermectin and topical permethrin cream in the treatment of scabies. Aside from treating humans ivermectin is also used to treat animals for parasites, worms and mange, so you can buy it online or at a local feed store. However, readers who rely on information in this publication to replace the advice of health-care professionals, or who fail to consult with health-care professionals, assume all risks of such conduct.
Ivermectin (Stromectol) for typical and crusted scabies RADAR NPS Radar
Ivermectin, a widely used, orally administered, anthelmintic drug, has been reported to be an effective treatment for scabies. No other scabicides had been used in the month before ivermectin therapy or during the one-month follow-up period. Pruritus appeared to resolve more rapidly with ivermectin than it does with topical treatment. A single-dose, oral treatment that is cost-effective is important for public health. Apply only to the affected areas of your face. None of the foregoing is a substitute for professional medical advice, examination, diagnosis, or treatment.
Ivermectin: MedlinePlus Drug Information
This material is provided for educational purposes only and is not intended for medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. Some studies suggest pyrethrins can affect cognitive development in children. If this is not effective, you may have to use pediculocide preparation — either over-the-counter or prescription. This is a more severe and extremely contagious type of scabies. In these patients, the following adverse experiences have also been reported: pain (including neck and back pain), red eye, conjunctival hemorrhage, dyspnea, urinary and/or fecal incontinence, difficulty in standing/walking, mental status changes, confusion, lethargy, stupor, seizures, or coma.
Therefore, ivermectin does not appear to be selectively fetotoxic to the developing fetus. I have not personally tried ivermectin for myself. Some people here buy the horse ivermectin here is the link to a discussion on here about it. Ivermectin can also be used to control demodicosis. She was the perfect wife, taking care of her husband for over half a decade. These online drug dealers bypass government safeguards that need uniformity of quality, a prescription from your licensed doctor which says the drug is intended particularly for you, and that this drug is just not counterfeit, meets manufacturing standards and is also safe and effective for that prescribed use. Neither should give you negative side effects but both are costly.
These are the most effective means to cure yourself of scabies. If the police fail to protect you, even through sheer incompetence and negligence, don't expect that you or your next of kin will be able to sue. I want you to know what they are, where to get them, how to apply them and what results to expect. Ivermectin horse paste is only approved for treatment of animals such as horses, sheep and cattle.
If the items for the list were cherry-picked to complement the facts, it really is facts none-the-less instead of a contrived list. The itch is not just tunneling and feces and feeding, it is the way the parasite eggs hatch and spread. It can affect people of all ages and from all social levels. This disease is transmitted from objects as well direct skin-to-skin contact. Tea tree oil works equally as compared to medications and has no side effects and interactions with drugs.

Friday night I got proper roaring drunk with The Girls. 'Twas only supposed to be a quick drink after work, because we had already celebrated my birthday two weeks ago with a slap up meal at Mrs Miggins Pie Shop... I mean Fish Hook, but it ended up with actually dancing in a pub. Drunk on life and Pimms.
Saturday we were up early to go meet with our florists. Two lovely ladies from flowerpod have designed something quite perfect - let's hope the quote is within budget.
Sunday Boo took me for a lovely day in the cloudy sun with lashings of ginger beer. We forgot to take our books and travel games, and had to make do with entertaining each other. We managed, somehow.
Sunday night I opened all my birthday presents and got over excited by all my lovely lovely new things. I was totally happy with everything I got given, and spent the rest of the night feeling all special and loved...and eating the fairy cakes I made with my new mixer and icing bag!
Yesterday we had a duvet day and got a new BT line installed at home (he moves in for real at the weekend, and couldn't bear the idea of no internet!); made some icecream in my new icecream maker; got our Notice of Marriage legal stuff done at the Town Hall; and had some special birthday loving.
Here are my two favourite snaps of the past couple of weeks.

Guardians of the Galaxy
Brash space adventurer Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) finds himself the quarry of relentless bounty hunters after he steals an orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful villain. To evade Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with four disparate misfits: gun-toting Rocket Raccoon, treelike-humanoid Groot, enigmatic Gamora, and vengeance-driven Drax the Destroyer. But when he discovers the orb's true power and the cosmic threat it poses, Quill must rally his ragtag group to save the universe.
Another hit from Marvel. The film plays like the classic sci-fi films of the early 1980s but with updated special fx, cool soundtrack and lots of funny parts. The cast is surprisingly good, especially Drax. As expect, Rocket and Groot are just amazing. A great introduction to the cosmic aspect of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Director: James Gunn
Running time: 122 minutes
Released: 2014

My favorite kind of wildlife safari is camping, because we're out in the savannah with nothing but wild creatures. Feeding a group of 12 clients, and the guides and guards, required an organized production and two excellent chefs.
These are photos of our safari camping in Meru National Park in Kenya. The food was incredible. Coming "home" to camp after a full day of watching lions, cheetahs, and elephants, and sitting down to a meal of delicious fire-roasted food…ahhh, that is living.
Add to that the night sounds of the moaning hyenas, sloshing hippos, and restless lions, and life could not be better. It's not for everyone, but to me, it is paradise.
What about danger you ask? We had Maasai warriors on night shift–it doesn't get safer than that!

For more than 40 years the Institute of Tropical Medicine (Antwerp) has been organizing an annual colloquium on a topic of public health importance in developing countries. Its aim is to provide an up-to-date overview of the problem and possible solutions by bringing together leading experts, health professionals and scientists from north and south. This year the colloquium is jointly organized by the Institute of Tropical Medicine and Medicines sans Frontiers (MSF) and will focus on issues related to the treatment of major tropical diseases. More specifically the colloquium will focus on the ever- increasing problem of drug resistance in malaria and other diseases, the lack of safe and efficacious drugs for forgotten diseases such as trypanosomiasis and leishmaniasis and the limited access to existing or new drugs for many people in the developing world.

Happy New Year!
In winter I like to give my senses a bit of an airing, I mean really focus on each of them, not just sight. I shut my eyes and sniff and taste and touch. Being out in the snow is generally not an olfactory experience but if I try hard enough, there's always something to make my nostrils twitch.
the crunch of footsteps in ice-crusted snow,
the heavy kronk of a tumbling raven,
the pebble-tapping clicks of a stonechat.
Wood smoke from the chimneys of thick-walled miner's cottages,
sweet, wet hay scattered for foraging sheep and ponies.
The prickle of gorse when I try to pull myself up a steep slope for the best coffee stop view,
the hot plastic cup from my flask warming my hands,
sticky cake crumbs on my lips,
icy wind against my cheeks.
Hot, sweet coffee,
chocolate cake,
a lemon-ice taste in my mouth from a gulp of mountain air.
Sights:Black raven in a blue sky, sheep splashed with either red or purple paint, one lamb or two?
Yellow gorse flowers shining on the hillside,
watery-orange sun slipping below the whale-back-mound of Moel Arthur.
