Author: Mike Carey
Series: Felix Castor #1
Genre: Dark fantasy. It's pretty close to being SPT for boys.
Setting: London.
Reason for Reading: I saw it reviewed on Bookish or Bookshare.
Finished In: Days
Pages: 501, plus a preview chapter of the next volume, Vicious Circle
Copyright Date: 2006 (I really didn't find out about this book for four years? That's... embarrassing.)
Cover: A man walks down a cobblestone street in the darkness. His arms are at his side but his shadow forms the shape of a cross.
First line: "Normally I wear a Czarist army greatcoat - the kind that sometimes gets called a paletot - with pockets sewn in for my tin whistle, my notebook, a dagger, and a chalice."
Best part: It was riveting.
Worst part: The level of distressing content was pretty low until near the end and then you get hit with a lot of graphic stuff. It's not that I have a problem with the graphic, I had just settled in to thinking it was kind of a "cozy" urban fantasy.
Imaginary Theme Song: "Eyes Like a Cat"
Grade: B-
Recommended for: Anyone who likes Jim Butcher is pretty much going to like this guy too.

I am not one to complain about what people post on tumblr or facebook but sadly I could not get this post out of my mind today. On this blog I promote healthy recipes most of which work with weight watchers which is the program I used to lose my weight. I use tons of vegetables in my recipes and focus on slimming down my families favorites. This person I came across today had posted a before and after picture on a tumblr group I followed and talked about how they lost their weight through healthy eating of going to the gym. However in the pictures you can see how unhealthy the person truly was. Everyone's body needs fuel if they are going to keep moving in the gym and even through out the day. A lot of people who are just starting their weight loss journey cut their calories by way to much and try to spend countless hours at the gym. By the end of the first week they are so worn out and completely drained that they decide they don't feel better and cut their journey short. Others find themselves devouring food left and right trying to make up what their bodies need.

Kent; United Artists; 1959)
worth seeing just to see an American film take
sides with Castro over Batista."
Reviewed by Dennis Schwartz
Prolific B-movie filmmaker Edward L. Cahn ("The Four Skulls of Jonathan Drake"/"Inside the Mafia"/"Gun Fight") shoots a rarity, a pro-Castro thriller partially filmed on location in Cuba in 1959, the first and I think the last American film since the revolution to use that location site. It was shot soon after the fall of Batista and before the infamous Bay of Pigs incident in April 1961, which made the countries bitter enemies. It's worth seeing just to see an American film take sides with Castro over Batista and not because it's a good flick--in fact, it's only an average Cahn film.
Steve Daggett (Cameron Mitchell), owner of a struggling air freight business in Miami, travels to Havana to investigate the disappearance of his mechanic best friend Hank (Logan Field), someone who saved his life during the Korean conflict, who mysteriously vanished during the Cuban revolt and hasn't been seen for some time.
Steve is brought from the airport, immediately after landing, to see Police Lt. Garcia (Michael Granger), who is in charge of investigating Hank's disappearance. Garcia, who knows all about Steve, brings him to the fancy apartment of Monica Gray (Allison Hayes), his former flame now married to Hank. Monica tells Steve she's separated from the amiable Hank, who is a drunk and can't hold a job. It's also learned that Hank worked as a mechanic for boat builder, Gustave Schluss (Otto Waldis), located at Pier 5, before his disappearance. The statuesque Monica is now romantically linked with wealthy plantation owner smoothy Fernando Ricardo (Eduardo Noriega), who is in good with the new communist regime because he gave money to the cause during the revolution.
Hank pulls a Harry Lime, the character returned from the dead in Carol Reed's classic The Third Man (1949), and after swiping a Jeep to get by his militia guards he arrives at his beach house and points out to Steve and Monica that he was snatched by a Batista group, one that includes the membership of the flunky Schluss, to convert transport planes into bombers to attack Cuba in a counter-revolution attack set for tomorrow.
Though the film is far from a political thriller, as it hardly explores that the U.S. backed right-wing dictator and that the leftist Castro was considered a bad risk to U.S. owned business interests in Cuba. Cahn instead shoots it like a second feature Mike Hammer pulp fiction film, that's more interested in broads, tough guy talk and fistfights than in uncovering anything serious about foreign affairs. It also has deep holes in the plotline, but briskly moves along with some diverting Cahn embellishments thrown in to keep it properly sleazy.

text: Posted by: jsharpe on October 19, 2015 in Installer Blog Leave a comment How can installers add value to their businesses? Carrie Young, Head of Marketing at Ideal Boilers talks about how installers can add value: 'Adding value' or 'value added' is a phrase we are hearing more and more in the business world, but what does it mean and how can you add value to your business? Adding value means offering more. What can you offer that your competitors don't? How can you make your business stand out? The concept of adding value, particularly in small businesses can mean the difference between an average business and a thriving one. Get the word out In order to add value to your business, it's imperative to ensure that your current and potential customers know who you are and what you are offering. Effective marketing is a quick and easy way to help grow your business and create an impact. A number of manufacturers can help you do this, including access through their loyalty programmes to useful marketing tools. These can include creating personalised marketing items featuring your own company logo including flyers, door drop cards, advertisements, workwear and business stationery. Or even help designing a logo, new website or creating van signage. Excellent service stands out In the world where social media plays such an important part of our everyday lives, and discussions about purchasing experiences are constant, excellent customer service is key. A rapid and effective response to a customer enquiry is vital to building your business. Asking your customers to feedback on the service they have received from you is a great way to make offering a value added service work for you. Adding positive feedback or customer testimonials to your website makes you stand out from your competition when customers are looking for a heating engineer in their area. Retaining business Servicing work is a great opportunity to retain customers for repeat business year after year. Some manufacturers offer a Service Reminder scheme which is a great way to offer your customer a value added service. Registering the boiler with the manufacturer on behalf of your customer means less hassle for them and ensures you get the servicing work. Then, each year when the boiler is approaching its annual service, the scheme would contact your customer with your contact details to remind them to book a service with you. As the installer, you would receive an SMS to let you know the manufacturer has contacted your customer. Taking the trouble to book a boiler service by calling them first and arranging everything for them, is a great way to add value and make life simple for your customer. Communication is key Make the most of the resources at your disposal – manufacturers often have great websites, apps and point of sale material that can bring your product recommendations to life. Use them to help your customers to better understand what you are offering and show your expertise. Confident and clear communication can help you identify exactly what homeowners are looking for in a plumbing service. Ask your customers 'how can we make our service better'. As well as letting your customers know that their opinion is important to you, you will gain invaluable insight on how you can add value for your customers and stand out from your competition.

"Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, who gave himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you by the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel – which is really not gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let him be eternally condemned! As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let him be eternally condemned!
Am I now trying to win the approval of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ" (Galatians 1:3-10).
There are many false teachers in the world today who would, consciously or unconsciously, astray from the truth of the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. Many perversions of the gospel are in the world. Here we receive a firm warning – do not believe it! The gospel of Christ's blood, death, resurrection and ascension is truth and life. Do not be led astray by those who do not believe and those who do not know truth from untruth.
If you do not know what the true gospel is, open the Word of God and read it for yourself. There are far too many people out there who talk about some things that Jesus said or did, but really they do not know anything about these things. A lot is hearsay from other people who do not know. Other things are based on misunderstanding. But the Word of God is truth and sets the record straight once for all. Read for yourself this gospel that was preached and received from the beginning. Take heed the warning against false teachers and false gospels. Do not believe them. Again, heed the words of the Lord Jesus: "Trust in God; trust also in me" (John 14:1).

A conference's strength will help determine its number of bowl tie-ins in 2020
The NCAA has made a change to the way conferences can sign contracts with bowl games.
The NCAA's Division I Football Oversight Committee said Wednesday that it will take into account a conference's previous number of bowl-eligible teams when determining how many bowl tie-ins a conference can have. For the bowl cycle from 2020-2025, the NCAA took the average number of bowl-eligible teams for a given conference in the previous four seasons to determine how many bowl tie-ins a conference is allowed to have.
Here's a practical example. The SEC is now allowed to have up to 11 bowl tie-ins under the new formula based on the conference's number of bowl-eligible teams over the past four seasons.
What's with the math?
The goal of the new rule is to try to create the most attractive bowl matchups as possible while also minimizing the impact of 5-7 teams in bowl games. There could be as many as 43 bowls starting in 2020 with the possible additions of bowls in Chicago and Myrtle Beach. With 5-7 bowl teams making appearances in 2016 because there weren't enough six-win teams, it's a near-guarantee more sub-.500 teams will be making bowl appearances in the future.
"We struck that balance, and we wanted to strengthen the bowls," said Bob Bowlsby, committee chair and commissioner of the Big 12 Conference. "We want to have better reporting to make sure bowl games are financially sound, and they are appropriately represented in terms of having them meet NCAA requirements, so they remain strong entities and serve the collegiate community."
A bowl-eligible team will continue to be a team that's won six games in a given season. Teams that are 5-7 will be given the first choices on accepting a bowl bid based on their Academic Progress Rates.
How many bowl tie-ins will each conference have?
Here's a list of the number of bowl tie-ins allowed for each conference.
• American: 7
• Big 12: 7
• Big Ten: 9
• Conference USA: 7
• Mountain West: 6
• Pac-12: 8
• Sun Belt: 5
Notre Dame is counted as an ACC team for bowl contract purposes. Army and BYU also each have their own bowl tie-ins for seasons where they are bowl eligible.
The SEC and Big Ten each had 10 bowl contracts in 2017. Some of those contracts were shared with the ACC, meaning that bowls like the Music City Bowl, TaxSlayer Bowl and Citrus Bowl could work together and pick two teams from among the three conferences.
Each conference has its own rules for determing which teams go to which bowls it has contracts with. Some conferences base bowl appearances on their teams' records, others take geography and ticket sales more into account.
What happens if a conference has more or less bowl-eligible teams than it has contracts?
Bowl contracts aren't necessarily set in stone and the numbers above definitely won't be the number of bowl-eligible teams in each conference after the 2020 season.
So the conferences and bowls (along with ESPN, which owns a lot of the bowls) still will have some flexibility when it comes to scheduling matchups when a conference has too many or too few deserving teams. For example, Houston ended up in the Las Vegas Bowl after the 2016 season despite the bowl game having a contract with the Pac-12 and Mountain West Conferences.

Now that the sun is here I am asked more frequently about moisturisers with SPF – and which to use, when – and how much?
I have inadvertently given the impression on this blog that I don't use SPF – absolutely my fault for not being clear.
So to put the record straight: I have olive skin and have Native American Indian in my background. I tan easily, burn rarely and worship the sun. However, my Mother (much paler than me) has suffered with melanoma quite seriously so I have my skin checked under Woods Lamps and keep an eye on my moles. And I absolutely use SPF when sunbathing – and when in hot climates for work – I just don't use daily dedicated SPF in my skincare.
In the winter I get my SPF from my make-up – and in the summer I get SPF from a specific SPF product. I.E. a dedicated sunscreen that gives both UVA and UVB protection. UVC doesn't penetrate that atmosphere so we don't need to worry on that score.
My problem with SPF in moisturisers is two-fold:
- It gives you a false sense of security. In the 1920's the incidences of melanoma – with no SPF available – were around 1 in 1500. In 2013 they are 1 in 53 – with years of SPF being available and modern science – 1 in 53. Why? Because we apply it once and move on, thinking we're done.
If you use a moisturiser containing SPF 15 (for example) at 8am in the morning – assuming you apply it all over your face (most people leave out areas of their face when moisturising) – if you would normally burn in 15 minutes of sun exposure, technically you should be reapplying your SPF at 11.45am. How are you going to do that without removing your full face of makeup? I know no-one that takes their makeup off halfway through the day to reapply sunscreen.
And if you are sunbathing – to use the recommended amount – you would need to use a bottle of SPF a DAY. A DAY.
If you apply your SPF moisturiser religiously every day and think you are protected – you may not be.
- A moisturiser containing SPF invariably only protects from UVB – it does not protect you from UVA. So you won't burn, but your collagen will break down and you'll still get wrinkles. Excellent. Also – SPF moisturisers are less likely to be rub-resistant or water-resistant. So if you apply your makeup with fingers or a brush (everyone) or perspire/sweat – it's gone.
If you want proper protection from the sun you need to use a broad spectrum sun protectant cream – a dedicated product that's sole purpose is to protect your skin from the damage the sun does to it.
Honestly? Companies that add SPF to their general 'anti-ageing' moisturisers are throwing it in there as an 'added benefit' and a sales tool. Sun protection is not an 'added benefit'. It's a critical, proven step to protect from ageing.
The EU is on to this and making sweeping changes from this July. The symbol above can only be shown on packaging of a product that has proven to provide at least a third of its protection against UVA. Not just UVB.
In terms of routine?
- cleanse
- tone
- serum (if you use)
- moisturiser (non-spf!)
- SPF product
- makeup
The EU has also reclassified sun protection ratings:
- Low = 6-14 (God knows what they would call my old preferred SPF 4 oil of the 80's)
- Medium = 15-29
- High = 30-50
- Very high = 50+
If you are fair, white, 'pale' – you should be in the 'High' category.
If you are any type of ethnicity that tans easily and rarely burns you can use low-medium as long as you use it wisely.
If you are a redhead however you are strictly in the 'Very high' category. Redheads with freckles have phaeomelanin – opposed to the rest of us that have eumelanin. You'll burn easily, quickly and the damage will be long-lasting.
If you use an SPF in the low-medium category you will still tan.
If you don't want any colour at all you need to use 30 and above and reapply frequently.
N.B. – SPF degrades. Buy new each year.
When I use Woods Lamps or similar technology on clients the main areas that nearly always show damage are the tops of the ears (ALWAYS the top of the ears), the back of the neck and the tip of the nose. Forewarned is forearmed.
Enjoy the sun. I LOVE the sun. Just protect yourself.

Linebacker leading young but improved Chargers
Donovan Moss didn't appreciate opponents taking Cox Mill as a "joke" in their inaugural season last year.
He knew that had to stop.
"We worked hard so that if teams came here sleeping on us we could catch them off guard," said Moss.
For a team that won only one game last season, Cox Mill has shown a lot of improvement. The team has won five games, including Friday's 20-13 upset of Concord, and have a likely shot of making the playoffs for the first time in school history.
Moss credits the team's improvement to their maturation, but he admits that there have been other factors involved.
"Everybody wants it more," he said. "We've also worked hard in practice and that's translating to the games."
Moss admits that he's enjoyed the wins his Chargers (5-3, 2-2 in the South Piedmont Conference) have pulled off this year, but his season highlight was catching his first interception in Cox Mill's conference opener against Mount Pleasant.
Moss has been huge in the Chargers' improvement, as he's made big plays like that for the defense all season.
The middle linebacker is one of the top tacklers on the team and leads the Chargers in fumble recoveries with two.
But just as important, Moss has been Cox Mill's defensive leader even before the school opened its doors last fall.
He was the one motivating his teammates while the Chargers were still working out at Northwest Cabarrus' weight room and is the one that makes the calls for his defense during games.
Chargers coach Greg Neuendorf said Moss has the characteristics that every coach wants in a leader.
"Donovan is the kind of person who you can point to and say 'this is what we want on a day-in and day-out basis," said Neuendorf. "If you don't have that, your team is kind of lost - if they can't look to somebody to lead them."
Neuendorf explained that Moss shows the way for his teammates by example.
"He's not a huge 'rah, rah' guy, but he's always working his tail off, getting good grades, doing everything we want," said Neuendorf.
Moss's hard work doesn't stop when practice ends. He takes copies of his team's opponents' film home to better prepare for games.
"You have to be able to teach yourself, especially if you want to play at the next level," the 17-year-old said. "The coach can't always hold your hand along the way."
Moss hopes to do just that and earn a scholarship to play collegiately.
Although he said a couple of coaches have gotten in touch with him, he's still sending out tapes to schools to get his name out.
"Im sending them everywhere - from D-I to D-III," he said. "I just want to play."
Moss, who is 6-foot-1, 210 pounds, said that even though he's improved since last year, he's still not satisfied.
"I think I've played good, but I want to be great," he said. "I have a lot of improvements to make."
Neuendorf said Moss's defensive unit has definitely improved since last year, when they gave up an average of 36 points per game.
"Two years in the same system, kids understand where they're going and understand what we're trying to do," said Neuendorf..
He added the Chargers' defense, which is allowing 23 points per game and less than 14 a game in their wins, has had its good and bad games, and have some improving to do.
"It's still a very inexperienced group," said Neuendorf. "We only start three seniors on defense."
Moss said he wants to finish out the season - and his high school career - strong and win the a few more games to guarantee the Chargers a playoff spot.
"For a two-year school that would be an awesome feat," he said. "We want to do that and keep going until we can."

Ashley Cole is on the verge of becoming a Real Madrid player in a £30 million move, according to Spain goalkeeper Iker Casillas.
Casillas, who has just been voted as the best goalkeeper at the World Cup, admitted Cole is likely to be playing at the Bernabeu next season.
The Chelsea star has endured a tough relationship with the majority of England fans, exacerbated by his recent comments about life in this country.
A change of scenery would do wonders for Cole and Casillas said: "From what I am hearing the signs look good.
"I have only briefly spoken to people at the club but I am confident that he can be a Real Madrid player next year.
"I think it will be the right move for him both professionally and personally.
"A clean break from England is hopefully something he is very interested in," the 29-year-old stopper, who has played almost 400 league games for Los Merengues, added.
Cole has previously worked under Madrid manager Jose Mourinho at Stamford Bridge and would jump at the chance of a reunion.
Casillas continued: "It will be his last big contract and who better to sign for than his old coach Mourinho at Real.
"He will know better than anybody this club will be successful under Jose.
"Jose has proved he buys players and makes them the very best in the world in their position.
"With Ashley he doesn't need to do that because he's already the best left-back in the world.
"Jose knows all about him and it comes as no surprise to me he is very much on Madrid's radar."
The self-proclaimed 'Special One' has also shown an interest in Cole's team mate Frank Lampard but ended his pursuit of Liverpool skipper Steven Gerrard last night.

Freedom…of a sort…
After 11 days the ice came to an end, to be replaced by industrial strength rain, a 30 mile-an-hour northeasterly gale and a snug 4 degrees centigrade. Now am I going to stick my face out in that or not? I have more rain-gear than sense so I put BMX pedals on my trusty steed and put on serious clothes. These consist of shorts and tights, 2 base layer vests, Lowepro Hill-walking coat and trousers and hill-walking socks and Dubarry sailing boots. On my hands I put a pair of fleece gloves with waterproof breathable mittens, velcro the cuffs around these and off I go. After 4 hundred yards my head is freezing so I put up the hood and put the helmet over this and proceed once more. Through town and along the river to Blackrock, around the Mahon walk and down along the river to Passage West, as I described before on my trip around Cobh. This section of the journey was, let's say, challenging. I managed 6-7 mph into the gale with lashing rain and there were no hills till close to home.
After I reached Passage West I began to get some of the wind at my back and from Monkstown I got the full force of it propelling me along. On to Carrigaline (Carraig Uí Laighin = Lyon's or Lehane's Rock) and Ballea (Baile Aodha = Hugh's Town). I was now cycling by the side of the Ownabwee River (Abha na Baoi = the River of the Buoy). The river was bursting its banks and further on, it was in full flood.
I proceeded with the wind as far as Ballinhassig and from here I had a hard climb, again into the wind to the area known as the Liberties, beyond which lay the drop to Bishopstown and home.
Just starting to get damp due to condensation from climbing the hill, but my hands and feet were warm and Garry was a lot happier than he was for the last 11 days, at least from the exercise point of view. A hard spin, at 11 mph.
I will tackle any weather except weather with icy roads. They are a no-no.
I find that sailing wellies (I don't sail) are good for winter cycling as they're a lot lighter than muck wellies and have a stiffer sole which combines well with BMX pedals. Mine are a size too big so I can wear 2 pairs of thick socks if I want. My first pair died last year after about 10 years of winter service!!

Jet Luge Cowboy
Summary Info
The Cowboy appeared on the scene 1996 and is one of the original founders of streetluge in Australia He has tirelessly continued to develop and build a jet powered streetluge.
Spawned on the eve of a full moon in the rainforest of Asia, there is little known about this strange creature. His mother was a Punjabi speaking Eskimo with four fingers and a mullet, his dad, well, that's an entirely different story. For 23 years of his life he was raised as a sideshow attraction next to Percilla (the monkey girl) and Lydia (the Tattooed lady). Here he learned the art of shaving and gained an appreciation of images. Later he spent many of his years trying to convince molecules to cooperate by bribing them with nuclei, for what reasons he never said but needless to say, this failed. His true age is not known and cannot be determined via blood samples as only pure beer runs in his veins, this gives him a constant amber glow and makes him very popular at parties, but more than once has almost cost his life. What is known, he is a passionate lover of life, people and a good joke.

"For though, while he lives, he counts himself blessed,
—and though you get praise when you do well for yourself—
his soul will go to the generation of his fathers,
who will never again see light.
Man in his pomp yet without understanding is like the beasts that perish."
- Psalm 49:18-20
Preceding this verse is "Be not afraid when a man becomes rich, when the glory of his house increases" - verse 16. Given verses 18-20 you would think this would read "be not jealous," not be not afraid, but thats not what I want to focus on.
Look at rest of this and specifically the first and last line. Man may count himself blessed, but without understanding he is like the beasts. I don't know why this generation is so intent on making animal equal to man, but then it occurs to me. Without God, while doing "well for yourself" and seeking all the wrong things, man becomes just like an animal, passing away without meaning.
That is, this verse brings to light our weird postmodern view that man is nothing. Animal is no worse than man and man is no worse than animal. If you are seeking after the wind, seeking praise and even counting yourself blessed in your possessions, then this view of life is absolutely accurate.
The man who lives a life not for Christ, dies having had as much meaning as the roadkill under your tire. You hit it and feel bad for a minute, but it's life was basically meaningless. These people will perish and we'll feel bad for a minute, but they will have made little or no impact in this world (even less on eternity), being like the beasts that perish. Ironically filled with pomp.
I feel like I'm saying this over and over again and not making it clear. Pomp, money, power, though looked upon by man as valuable will pass away as a squirrel under a tire. Carrion.

If a holiday weekend doesn't hold beach or lake fantasies, then let it be all about what feels good at home . . . sleeping in and laying in bed talking with my girl, making a pot of coffee and sipping on cups until 11:00AM, knowing nothing is ahead and pressing . . . simply . . .being. Aside from taking the car in for major work yesterday, it was all about home.
On Friday night I stoked up the chiminea; watching a roaring fire — and I do make a mean fire — whether in my chiminea or in the living room fireplace is about as good as it gets. And as I said on the Instragram caption, the evening would not have been complete without Gideon at my side. My trusty sidekick. The Ethel to my Lucy. The Mrs. Beasley to my Buffy. The Lassie to my Timmy (although I don't know if dear Giddy would know how to save me if I fell down a well).
This morning as we get ready for churches (I go to one and Harleigh goes to another), the house is rockin' to One Direction What Makes You Beautiful (the Gahan Girls love their boy bands).
Co-workers often give me empty tins and jars, knowing that I can use them in my craft room arsenal. Here is an empty Chambord liqueur bottle which is getting decorated to be a perfume bottle and added to the dress-up items from Harleigh's little girl days. One day, if I have a granddaughter, Marmie's place is gonna be THE place to come for dressing up. The other two photographs are clues to the girlie being home for the summer . . . a camp bookbag forever at the front door (and shoes everywhere, eeegads the shoes), drink glasses and the remote left on the coffee table, all good things.
The American flag is out, and Gideon stands guard at the front door (can ya see the drool-drip on the storm door?? Let's add housecleaning to the to-do list this weekend). Oh, and the girlie is notorious for using blankets everywhere she sits, and they never seem to make it back to the blanket baskets, which Gideon is quite happy about (there's nothing like sleeping on anything that smells like the two girls he loves most in the world).
I'm afraid this is about as exciting as things will get this long, holiday weekend. And that's fine by me.

Inspiring the next generation to help create a low-carbon world
Guest Blog From Ashden – a Sustainable Schools Alliance member
Ashden's LESS CO2 programme is a free energy efficiency programme available to any UK school and is not only helping to create more sustainable schools, but also galvanising young people to join the movement for a low-carbon world.
The programme runs over the course of a school year in a series of four half-day workshops, and includes expert advice and resources for staff as well as the opportunity to ask questions, discuss ideas, and brainstorm solutions. The workshops cover various aspects of energy saving, from recording meter readings to monitoring energy use, behaviour change for staff and students, and how to incorporate sustainability into the curriculum.
Local schools work together in geographic clusters of up to 15, sharing information, experiences and advice on how best to tackle energy usage and reduce energy bills. The chance to learn from other schools is one of the reasons the LESS CO2 programme, which is supported by Bank of America Merrill Lynch, is proving so popular.
Top Tips from a Devonshire School
We asked one of our recent graduating clusters to share some of their advice to schools that are just starting out on their own energy management journey. Here are our Devon schools' tips to making sustainability a success:
- Get as much data as you can at the beginning of the process and learn how to calculate savings and payback times. This makes it easier to demonstrate the impact your work will have, and to support any funding requests you make.
- Start measuring and monitoring what you are currently using in terms of energy.
- Create short, medium and long-term actions to ensure that you are looking at quick and easy wins, as well as being ambitious with your bigger plans.
- Don't underestimate how much time you will need to do this – speaking to other members of staff, reviewing energy data and contacting energy suppliers all takes time. It's worth investing time in speaking to staff in all departments in your school. Plan in this time.
- Involve teaching members of staff early on. It's good to have support from all corners. Help staff understand the cost of energy use at school by putting it into comparative figures they can relate to. For example, the cost of support staff hours in relation to the cost of leaving computers on overnight.
- Link the building management staff with the teaching staff to ensure that they are working together to save energy in the school.
- Get students involved – this is a great learning experience for them which they can take into their future education and careers. They are also great at encouraging/nagging staff to switch off their lighting and equipment!
On average, schools that take part in the LESS CO2 programme save 14% of their energy spend in addition to lowering their CO2 emissions. In the coming year, the programme is looking to recruit more schools in areas of social and economic deprivation. In order to really embed best practice in energy saving, Ashden is aiming to deliver the programme to 3000 schools by 2021. Find out more at www.lessco2.org.uk and follow us on Twitter @LESSCO2

December 6 Babri Masjid Demolition Day: Join Tamilnadu Muslims' demonstration near parliament
New Delhi, 5 December, 2004:
TamilNadu Muslim Munnetra
Kazhagam (TMMK) is a mass based organization of the Muslims of TamilNadu
which is working for the welfare of all section of Muslims and other
persecuted masses. It has been striving for the establishment of Minority
Rights in the state of TamilNadu since 1995.
TamilNadu Muslim Munnetra Kazhagam has tirelessly worked for the civil and
political rights of Muslims and other persecuted people of TamilNadu by
adopting peaceful form of agitations like dharna, procession,
demonstration, public meetings, picketing etc., These peaceful agitational
methods have helped to solve many a problem facing the Minority community
in TamilNadu. Though TamilNadu Muslim Munnetra Kazhagam is not a political
party contesting elections, it has through its large network, educated the
people to vote for parties which are friendly towards the interests of the
Muslims. Through its large following TMMK has become a powerful force to
reckon with in the political arena of TamilNadu. TMMK units are spread in
the nooks and corner of TamilNadu. The units of TMMK also render social
services like blood donation, free medical camps, educational guidance,
civic services in the localities etc., Several units of TMMK have won
awards from the State Government for their various social services. TMMK
has through its peaceful but forceful actions won the support and sympathy
of several non Muslim communities and organizations in the state of
TamilNadu. TMMK is also a recognised Human Rights organization and its
President Prof. M.H. Jawahirullah was invited to address the IX Session of
the United Nations Human Rights Commission's Working Group on Minorities
held at Geneva in May 2003, where he highlighted the Babri Masjid issue,
Gujarat genocide and other issues confronting the minorities of India. .
Ever since its inception in August 1995, TamilNadu Muslim Munnetra
Kazhagam has organized every year, peaceful protest programmes on 6th
December, the day of demolition of Babri Masjid demanding justice for the
Muslim Community. Even on occasions when the protest programmes has been
banned, TMMK has successfully organized agitation, defying the ban and
sometime courting arrest. TMMK believes that the demolition of Babri
Masjid defying the rule of law is the most heinous crime committed in the
history of our country. It is a crime which cannot be forgotten and which
should not recur in the future. Until justice is rendered, it is the duty
of every justice loving Indian citizen to remind the fellow country men
that the only justice available in the Babri Masjid issue is the
reconstruction of the Masjid at the very spot where it stood for more than
450 years. This is the reason why every year on the day of demolition TMMK
has organized peaceful agitation to prick the nation's conscience.
This year the State Executive Council of TMMK has decided to organize a
symbolic demonstration in front of Parliament on 6th December
to put forth the following demands:
1. December 6, 2004 marks the 12th Anniversary of the
demolition of Babri Masjid. On the ill fated day of demolition, Mr. P.V.
Narasimha Rao the then Prime Minister addressing the nation through
Doordarshan promised the nation that the demolished Masjid will be rebuilt
on the site where it stood. However the Nation is still waiting for the
fulfillment of the promise given by the then Prime Minister. TMMK is
holding the demonstration in near Parliament only to remind the present
Central Government led by a Congress Prime Minister to fulfill the promise
given on December 6, 1992, by the then P. V. Narasimha Rao led Congress
Government. The majority of the parties now forming the constituents of
the United Progressive Alliance have in the past stalled the Parliament
proceedings on December 6th demanding justice for the Muslim
community. TMMK is holding the protest programme only to remind these
parties to render justice when they are now in power.
2. This demonstration is also to appeal to the central government
to expedite the legal process so as to bring to justice, Mr L.K. Advani
and others who have been charge sheeted by the CBI in the Babri Masjid
demolition case.
This demonstration is also for demanding the immediate release of the
report of the Liberahan Commission which has been enquiring the Babri
Masjid demolition case for more than a decade.
TMMK is also holding

Cornwall bridge reopened after Idle No More protest
Last bridge closure in 2009 due to Akwesasne protest over armed border guards
Police in Cornwall, Ont., have reopened the International Bridge after an Idle No More protest attracted about 350 demonstrators and closed the bridge for more than three hours.
The bridge closed at about 10:30 a.m. when the march began and reopened at about 2 p.m.
The protest was one of a series of events by First Nations groups calling on the federal government to work with them to discuss the issue of aboriginal treaties.
The last time the bridge closed for anything other than a traffic collision was in 2009, during a dispute between the Akwesasne Nation and Canada Border Services Agency over armed border guards.
During the dispute, the bridge was closed for more than a month.
Bridges, roads closed Saturday across Canada
Protesters were also set to march Saturday at the Peace Bridge between Fort Erie, Ont., and Buffalo, N.Y., on the Deh Cho Bridge in the N.W.T., the Peach Arch border crossing in Surrey, B.C., the Canadian side of the Blue Water Bridge in Sarnia, Ont., and at the Queenston/Lewiston Bridge between Niagara Falls and Niagara on the Lake.
Protesters were also set to gather Saturday at other locales, such as:
- The Buffalo Narrows Reserve in Northern Saskatchewan.
- Highway 403 in Hamilton Saturday afternoon.
- The White Buffalo Youth Lodge in Saskatoon, with actor and activist Tantoo Cardinal.
- The Santa Maria bridge in West Edmonton Mall, where a group of Latinos are expected to gather in support of the First Nations protesters.
- Centennial Park on Salt Spring Island, B.C.
- Orchard Park Shopping Centre in Kelowna, B.C.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper has agreed to meet with First Nations chiefs on Jan. 11, as the hunger strike from Attawapiskat First Nation Chief Theresa Spence drags on.
But protesters have said that is only a first step and they do not believe the meeting will solve their concerns, which mostly stem from Bill C-45 — the Conservative government's omnibus budget bill.
Idle No More protesters have said the bill hinders their treaty rights.

'Tear down North's edifice of untruths'
Former President joins calls for transparency on some of the most controversial murders of 'The Troubles'
The "edifice of lies and untruths" surrounding so many of the deaths during Northern Ireland's dirty war should be torn down and democracy will be stronger for the truth being told, former President of Ireland Professor Mary McAleese told a London conference on the legacy of Northern Ireland's violence, last Saturday.
Professor McAleese chaired the conference, Troubles, Tragedy and Trauma: Northern Ireland's Historic Legacy, organised by St Mary's University in Twickenham, where she is a Distinguished Professor, the Irish Cultural Centre in Hammersmith and the Commons All Party Parliamentary Group on Irish in Britain.
Professor McAleese said: "It tells us something about the shelf life of these stories, the shelf life of grief, and of sadness and of these people who have been what you might call, I believe, patiently impatient.
"There are people who become impatient for change. They do not want their story to be the subject matter of spores that create hate for the future and recreate stories like this in every generation."
Coincidentally, the long-arranged conference happened the day after the conclusion of a two-week review of dozens of the most highly-disputed murders which are still awaiting inquests decades later.
Lord Justice Weir, who is leading the review, has said solving controversial questions about Northern Ireland's violent past will help the North move on.
Saturday's event was devised by St Mary's MA Irish Studies student Michael O'Hare whose twelve-year old sister, Majella, was killed by the British Army in 1976.
Participants and contributors included Alan McBride, whose wife Sharon was killed in the Shankill Fish Bar bombing of 1993, Steve Travers, surviving member of the Miami Showband massacre, Joe Campbell whose father, an RUC sergeant, was killed in Cushendall, and Eugene Reavey, brother of the Reavey brothers killed in their home in South Armagh in 1976.
They were joined by Dr Tom Clonan former Irish Army officer, now security analyst for the Irish Times, journalist Eamonn Mallie, Jane Winter of British Irish Rights Watch, Guardian journalist Owen Boycott, Joe Campbell recalled the murder of his RUC sergeant father and the subsequent cover-up and said he believed there will be no real political progress until there is greater transparency about the collusion of the security and intelligence services in Northern Ireland with terrorists in various murders on both sides of the communities.
'No collusion'
Sergeant Campbell, a father of eight, was shot dead as he closed a police station in 1977. A police ombudsman's report subsequently said the murder could have been prevented by senior RUC commanders, but said it did not believe there had been collusion.
Mr Campbell said true reconciliation would always be extremely "difficult when the system will not acknowledge the wrong that was done".
"In order that the political institutions in Northern Ireland can make progress, people need to come to an understanding that issues like ours have to be dealt with in the public eye."
He praised Lord Justice Weir's acknowledgment that the Campbells had been waiting too long for the truth. He said that when his mother, Rosemary, heard that "the lights came on" for her.
He said: "It is the first time in 39 years my family has felt this is someone on the side of attempting to get to the truth, and he's dealt very robustly with the notion some organisations over there cannot provide the necessary correspondence in order that the cases can be progressed."
"We're resilient people and we will continue until we find the truth," he said.
Lord Justice Weir is compiling a report on almost a hundred deaths for the head of Northern Ireland's judiciary, Lord Chief Justice Sir Declan Morgan.

Valentine Fun
>> Wednesday, January 11, 2017
There are so fun new stamps in the latest release. I used two of them on this fun Valentine's card.
First I cut and painted up a corrugated cardboard heart and then I layered on the new Amazing Love Puzzle (I fussy cut and sponged it), and the Amazing Valentine's Day Greeting. To add an element of whimsy, I added a Cupig (love this little character).
Don't you just love Valentine's cards? They bring back so many fun childhood memories for me.

Larry Rohter, The New York Times, Record Industry Braces for Artists' Battles Over Song Rights: "Since their release in 1978, hit albums like Bruce Springsteen's "Darkness on the Edge of Town," Billy Joel's "52nd Street," the Doobie Brothers' "Minute by Minute," Kenny Rogers's "Gambler" and Funkadelic's "One Nation Under a Groove" have generated tens of millions of dollars for record companies. But thanks to a little-noted provision in United States copyright law, those artists — and thousands more — now have the right to reclaim ownership of their recordings, potentially leaving the labels out in the cold."
Here's the relevant section of the Copyright Act:
§ 203. Termination of transfers and licenses granted by the author
(a) Conditions for Termination. — In the case of any work other than a work made for hire, the exclusive or nonexclusive grant of a transfer or license of copyright or of any right under a copyright, executed by the author on or after January 1, 1978, otherwise than by will, is subject to termination under the following conditions:
(1) In the case of a grant executed by one author, termination of the grant may be effected by that author or, if the author is dead, by the person or persons who, under clause (2) of this subsection, own and are entitled to exercise a total of more than one-half of that author's termination interest. In the case of a grant executed by two or more authors of a joint work, termination of the grant may be effected by a majority of the authors who executed it; if any of such authors is dead, the termination interest of any such author may be exercised as a unit by the person or persons who, under clause (2) of this subsection, own and are entitled to exercise a total of more than one-half of that author's interest.
(2) Where an author is dead, his or her termination interest is owned, and may be exercised, as follows:
(A) The widow or widower owns the author's entire termination interest unless there are any surviving children or grandchildren of the author, in which case the widow or widower owns one-half of the author's interest.
(B) The author's surviving children, and the surviving children of any dead child of the author, own the author's entire termination interest unless there is a widow or widower, in which case the ownership of one-half of the author's interest is divided among them.
(C) The rights of the author's children and grandchildren are in all cases divided among them and exercised on a per stirpes basis according to the number of such author's children represented; the share of the children of a dead child in a termination interest can be exercised only by the action of a majority of them.
(D) In the event that the author's widow or widower, children, and grandchildren are not living, the author's executor, administrator, personal representative, or trustee shall own the author's entire termination interest.
(3) Termination of the grant may be effected at any time during a period of five years beginning at the end of thirty-five years from the date of execution of the grant; or, if the grant covers the right of publication of the work, the period begins at the end of thirty-five years from the date of publication of the work under the grant or at the end of forty years from the date of execution of the grant, whichever term ends earlier.
(4) The termination shall be effected by serving an advance notice in writing, signed by the number and proportion of owners of termination interests required under clauses (1) and (2) of this subsection, or by their duly authorized agents, upon the grantee or the grantee's successor in title.
(A) The notice shall state the effective date of the termination, which shall fall within the five-year period specified by clause (3) of this subsection, and the notice shall be served not less than two or more than ten years before that date. A copy of the notice shall be recorded in the Copyright Office before the effective date of termination, as a condition to its taking effect.
(B) The notice shall comply, in form, content, and manner of service, with requirements that the Register of Copyrights shall prescribe by regulation.
(5) Termination of the grant may be effected notwithstanding any agreement to the contrary, including an agreement to make a will or to make any future grant.
(b) Effect of Termination. — Upon the effective date of termination, all rights under this title that were covered by the terminated grants revert to the author, authors, and other persons owning termination interests under clauses (1) and (2) of subsection (a), including those owners who did not join in signing the notice of termination under clause (4) of subsection (a), but with the following limitations:
(1) A derivative work prepared under authority of the grant before its termination may continue to be utilized under the terms of the grant after its termination, but this privilege does not extend to the preparation after the termination of other derivative works based upon the copyrighted work covered by the terminated grant.
(2) The future rights that will revert upon termination of the grant become vested on the date the notice of termination has been served as provided by clause (4) of subsection (a). The rights vest in the author, authors, and other persons named in, and in the proportionate shares provided by, clauses (1) and (2) of subsection (a).
(3) Subject to the provisions of clause (4) of this subsection, a further grant, or agreement to make a further grant, of any right covered by a terminated grant is valid only if it is signed by the same number and proportion of the owners, in whom the right has vested under clause (2) of this subsection, as are required to terminate the grant under clauses (1) and (2) of subsection (a). Such further grant or agreement is effective with respect to all of the persons in whom the right it covers has vested under clause (2) of this subsection, including those who did not join in signing it. If any person dies after rights under a terminated grant have vested in him or her, that person's legal representatives, legatees, or heirs at law represent him or her for purposes of this clause.
(4) A further grant, or agreement to make a further grant, of any right covered by a terminated grant is valid only if it is made after the effective date of the termination. As an exception, however, an agreement for such a further grant may be made between the persons provided by clause (3) of this subsection and the original grantee or such grantee's successor in title, after the notice of termination has been served as provided by clause (4) of subsection (a).
(5) Termination of a grant under this section affects only those rights covered by the grants that arise under this title, and in no way affects rights arising under any other Federal, State, or foreign laws.
(6) Unless and until termination is effected under this section, the grant, if it does not provide otherwise, continues in effect for the term of copyright provided by this title.
Were these in fact works for hire? Did the labels ever treat their artists like employees? If the artists are independent contractors, besides the named artists, who of the producers, executives and session musicians count as co-authors of the work?
This could prove to be very interesting… or not.
Update (8/17). The Times today ran a story about a copyright termination lawsuit on the front page of the arts section: A Village Person Tests the Copyright Law "Victor Willis, the original lead singer of the group, filed papers this year to regain control in 2013 over his share of "Y.M.C.A.," whose lyrics he wrote, under a copyright provision that returns ownership of creative works to recording artists and songwriters after 35 years. His claim to "Y.M.C.A." and 32 other Village People compositions, however, is being contested by two companies that administer publishing rights to the songs."
The complaint: Scorpio Music v Willis

For sure. Tesla has locked down everything, so after-market equipment might never arise. So just like Apple it's like it or lump it for some of the design decisions.
Turn signals and high beams. I see far too many people with those on when they shouldn't be, they need more prominence not less.

Make sure you give your helmets PLENTY of time to dry after spray painting them. We did it just a few hours before we started getting ready for the night, like utter fools, and after a tragic series of paint-transference events, we learned our lesson.
Also (clearly) they are HOT and pretty hard to see through (we very lightly misted the visors with black spray paint, which looked awesome but was also totally dangerous so I wouldn't recommend it). Know that you will most likely be taking yours off periodically throughout the evening, and plan accordingly.
Sequined Jacket | Black outfit | Black Leather Gloves | Triangular Necklace
Motorcycle Helmet | Silver and Gold Spray Paint | Painter's Tape
Part deux of my costume series! This one involves minimal DIY, which is nice for those of us who are disinclined to fritter away an entire month on an outfit that will last for (half of) one night. The trick is just pulling together the right pieces, the most important part being the helmets. Mine is this one, and Anne's is this one.

You are here: Manchester Confidential › Entertainment & Sport › Events & Listings.
DIESEL; the jeans brand that's rapidly becoming the House of Diesel, once attracted a fan base of fashion forward fans totally in love with the label's edgy, wearable designs. Founded in 1978, the company is well known for its jeans - dirty, well worn and industrial, with their StyleLab acting more recently as a forum for its experimental, stylish, and of course more expensive, creations.
Last night's preview of the new Spring/Summer 06 collection was all very nice, accessible as ever and supposed to hail a 'return to old-school glamour'. It doesn't. Something's gotten confused somewhere along the line and blandness has crept in. Whereas Diesel was once proud to claim that its design team had turned their back to style-dictators and trend forecasters, they've now become them - losing the vitality and energy within the company that made it so popular in the first place.
I arrived to house music, champagne and cocktails, the promise of 20% off anything bought that night, fashion and beauty tips from Elle and Shu Uemura and of course; the chance to view the collection before anyone else. I was in Diesel last week and not much had changed, and last night there just didn't seem to be anything on the rails that isn't already available in other shops within a 5 minutes walk. To be honest, much of what was in the store wouldn't have looked at all out of place in H&M or TopShop 12 months ago, nor at a third of the price. Generic and uninspiring, I'd hoped for more.
The label's head Renzo Rosso is said to believe in addressing the world with one product and one language, viewing fashion as a single, border-less macro-culture. Fair enough, but Elle's faithless reproduction of catwalk looks with ready to wear clothing did little to address the types of style around Manchester, merely copying haut couture. The first model I spotted sported a gorgeous long flowing top, t-shirt-cum-high fashion excellence, accompanied by low slung dark denim boot cut jeans. The look was fabulous, the cut not so good and the jeans drifted down the model's bum, forcing her to pull them up. She looked straight off the catwalk, with the type of figure (I assume) that Diesel jeans are designed for, yet they didn't stay up, or fit properly - not the best way to sell a line to a room full of people. I wasn't a big fan of the Safari look either. In a desert maybe, at a push, it'd work. But around town I'm not so sure.
No-one seemed too fussed though and the looks rolled on while the team from Campari poured cocktails for the mostly female clientele as they happily browsed and shopped into the night. Ever popular Shu Uemura were on hand to give makeovers and tips, and theirs looked to be the busiest area of the store. At one point I wondered where all the blokes were but then I realised, it was only 7pm; they were probably in the Annexe at Kendal's buying some decent clobber, something imaginative like Ringspun or Firetrap.
Diesel's look will last, and it'll sell just like it always does, but not for the right reasons. There's nothing new in the 'new' collection, it's just another rehash of what's already been done to death - the pseudo-military styled fabrics, the extra zips, canvas and jagged seams that still somehow appeal to the bar hopping urban crowd that snatches them up, and no doubt they'll all happily pay another £100 for updated versions of the same stuff that they've bought from Diesel for the last 2 or 3 years straight. I love the clothes and the cut of Diesel, but I've been there before and won't be going out of my way to shop there in the future. It lacks the challenge and adventure of previous years and I hate to say boring, but I've already got my nice Diesel jeans and shirt both complete with subtle design - I don't want another 3 exactly the same. Nothing stood out, very little seemed special and I struggled to find anything that would set an outfit off without looking as though I'd obviously tried too hard.
I thought Manchester was supposed to be one of the street fashion capitals of the world? I couldn't help but feel this offering from Diesel let us down a bit, lacked effort and mocked its place on the corner of one of our more supposedly fashionable streets.

This warm salad is an easy, one pot, recipe that will be done and ready to eat in less than 25 minutes. It makes for a great lunch or dinner on the go (just throw it in a container and grab a fork!), and you can switch up the seasons to your liking. And, you can always freeze the leftovers! The measuring is up to you, so make as much or as little as you want, measuring isn't important here!
What you will need:
seasonings (I used a few twists of the lemon pepper grinder, a pinch of green curry powder, Bragg's Liquid Amino Acids and garlic powder. Other great suggestions- yellow curry sauce, bbq sauce and hot sauce mixed, a cube of vegetable bouillon, or Italian seasoning.)
In a medium size pot, bring water to a boil and add lentils. Chop the kale into small leaves and chop the carrots, celery, and onion and add to the pot of lentils. Continue to boil for 20- 25 minutes or until the lentils are cooked. If there's any excess water, drain it. Add seasonings and serve!
