If you are going to take a combination hormonal birth control (CHC), you've already decided you don't want to get pregnant, and since CHCs are all equally effective at preventing ovulation, don't you want to know which are safer?
The European Medicines Agency tells women in Europe what the risks are for the different hormones. The FDA lumps all contraceptive pills into one line on a bar chart.

seattletimes.nwsource.com -- They've been called Oreos, traitors and Uncle Toms, and are used to having to defend their values. Now black conservatives are really taking heat for their involvement in the mostly white tea party movement - and for having the audacity to oppose the policies of the nation's first black president."I've been told I hate myself. I've been called an Uncle Tom. I've been told I'm a spook at the door," said Timothy F. Johnson, chairman of the Frederick Douglass Foundation, a group of black conservatives who support free market principles and limited government."Black Republicans find themselves always having to prove who they are. Because the assumption is the Republican Party is for whites and the Democratic Party is for blacks," he said.Johnson and other black conservatives say they were drawn to the tea party movement because of what they consider its commonsense fiscal values of controlled spending, less taxes and smaller government. The fact that they're black - or that most tea partyers are white - should have nothing to do with it, they say."You have to be honest and true to yourself. What am I supposed to do, vote Democratic just to be popular? Just to fit in?" asked Clifton Bazar, a 45-year-old New Jersey freelance photographer and conservative blogger.Opponents have branded the tea party as a group of racists hiding behind economic concerns - and reports that some tea partyers were lobbing racist slurs at black congressmen during last month's heated health care vote give them ammunition.But these black conservatives don't consider racism representative of the movement as a whole - or race a reason to support it.Angela McGlowan, a black congressional candidate from Mississippi, said her tea party involvement is "not about a black or white issue."

A significant portion of the Tea Party movement is comprised of surreptitiously racist white people who share only ONE basic common demominator; they CAN'T STAND having a black president. It simply drives them nuts. And when you have a lies-thru-his-teeth, corrupt corporate sellout SOB POS like THIS one, even WORSE!
These inconsiderate racists need to STOP hating president Mobamba for just a moment and ponder the fact that he's simply a MEAT PUPPET of Goldman Sachs. The strings that come out of his ass lead directly to the REAL culprits …JEWS!
PS: Just kidding but then again ..not really.

I really wish the Panthers were still around.
Blacks have jumped from the frying pan into another form of slavery, just as planned. They need another movement, preferably armed and willing to fight, to get out of this.

"Blacks ….need another movement, preferably armed and willing to fight, to get out of this."
They're ALREADY 'armed & willing to fight'. Problem is it's usually with EACH OTHER. THAT'S always been the insurmountable problem of the black race; they're EASILY manipulated and played-off against one another.
Today the brothers may prefer not to talk about it, but back in the days of slavery GUESS WHO was constantly supplying the white european slave traders with freshly raided merchandise?

While the "Tea Party" (could they have been anymore cliche and uncreative?) had a nice premise, it was very quickly co-opted and subverted by ultra-conservative nutjobs, the "pretty" Maverick, parts of Faux News, etc. The majority of its members have no real idea what is really going on, only that "debt is bad" and "the banks…they fucking DID it."
Most are republican "converts" whom, like the article's title implies, are Ayn "Serial-Kill Me" Rand neophytes. They also want to go back to "the good old days of 1776" (ironic, since their was no middle-class. You had poor farmers, meager artisans, and then the rich plantation owners (Washington, Jefferson, etc.))
If you meet one, don't just ad hominem them till they pull their open-carry Colt 1911 on you; try to provide facts and hope for the best. Otherwise, sit back and watch the partiers with the more "lucid vision of 1776" Joe Stack themselves into IRS buildings, the White House and Starbucks (that's where all those big-gov. liberals hang out).
Blacks are a non-issue. By 2050 we'll be allied with them against the Mexican Horde. U.S. won't even survive that long anyways. Expect crime to fucking sky-rocket into 2012. Muah!

9. Roger | April 13th, 2010 at 10:48 am
I wonder why none of the commentators have addressed the point of this article?
The story is that of a black conservative who is attacked by rascist white and black democrats and called racial slurs for being a conservative and tea party member.
All of these teabagger articles and cries of tea party racism have no grounds in reality. Black conservatives feel perfectly comfortable in the non-racial multiethnic tea party movement. I feel the preoccupation that the left has with race just goes to show how racist they really are. Everything is about colour.
Martin Luther King would be proud that the Al Sharptons and the Dems who seemingly inherited the civil rights movement have found such value and feel so comfortable judging a man by the colour of their skin and not the content of their character.

An East Troy man stands accused of attempted murder of a Wauwatosa resident after a caller warns police that a truck has been circling his block — and officers find the driver has hatched a strange plot to kill an old friend.
An East Troy man's obsession with protecting children and his delusion that an old friend was a child sex offender led him to plan to murder the man, according to Wauwatosa police, as detailed in a criminal complaint.
Daniel G. Plevak, 54, was charged Thursday in Milwaukee County Circuit Court with attempted first-degree intentional homicide and being a felon in possession of a firearm.
Although Plevak never actually confronted his intended victim, the complaint shows, police believe he had the ways, the means and the clear intent to commit the crime of murder, that he was about to do so, and that their actions stopped its commission.
According to the criminal complaint:
About 5 p.m. on Dec. 30, a resident called Wauwatosa police about a suspicious vehicle. Around 3:30 p.m., he said, he'd seen a yellow Penske rental truck drive by his house. A short time later, he saw it go by again. Over the next 45 minutes, he said, it went by five or six more times.
A patrol officer was dispatched, and he spotted the truck driving slowly down West Argonne Drive near West Concordia Avenue. The first thing he noticed was that the driver was wearing sunglasses despite the fact that the sun had set half an hour before.
The officer stopped the truck in the 9800 block of Argonne, walked up and found Plevak at the wheel — wearing a long black curly wig, makeup, a fake mustache, a parka and a Chicago Bears cap.
Plevak immediately told the officer he did not want to answer any questions, but he volunteered that he had a loaded gun on the floor near his feet, the complaint says.
The officer asked Plevak to get out of the truck so he could search him. He found that under his parka, Plevak was wearing an improvised holster made out of a belt. The officer asked Plevak what his business was driving around the area, and told him that if it was legitimate he might be let go.
Plevak told him, "I don't think you will be releasing me," the officer said in his report.
A firearm — and a fake arm
A second officer arrived on the scene and went to the passenger side of the truck, where he found several printed handbills on the seat. They pictured a man, gave his age and address, and said that the subject "...targets and sexually assaults little girls 5 to 12 years old. Protect your kids."
(Wauwatosa police would later learn that such handbills had been appearing in the neighborhood for two years, and that Milwaukee police had been taking them down.)
While Plevak was held outside the truck, the second officer continued his search of the cab. His next find was the gun Plevak had admitted having. It proved to be a .22-caliber Ruger semi-automatic handgun loaded with hollow-point cartridges — one in the chamber and 10 in the magazine.
The gun was on top of a Walmart bag, and in it was a 50-count box of .22 hollow points containing 19 more rounds. On the floor next to it were a pair of yellow gloves. The right-hand glove was attached to two rolls of taped-together bubble wrap that, the officer said, matched the dimensions of a false arm.
Wauwatosa police declined for now to release pictures taken at the scene of Plevak in full disguise and of the fake arm.
Intended victim a longtime friend
A detective presented with the strange evidence observed that if Plevak were to have placed the false arm with attached glove in the right sleeve of his parka, while wearing the left glove, it would appear that his hands were empty – but in fact he could have had his right hand inside his parka with access to the holster, ready to draw.
Also collected from the Penske truck was a receipt dated Dec. 23 from McMiller Sports Center in Eagle, where there is a shooting range. It noted a charge of $15.22 for "1 Range All Day."
On the back of the receipt was a hand-written note, reading: "arma balas, holster, night vision monocular, puddy (sic) knife, pepper spray, coat, peluca, bigote, brazo, abrigo, cinta, flyers." The detective translated the Spanish words in the list as, "bullets, wig, mustache, arm, coat and tape."
Next stop was the home of the man on the handbills, a nearby resident of Argonne Drive. He was shown a picture of Plevak, without his disguise, and immediately recognized him as a former friend he had known since college but hadn't seen in a number of years.
He said a neighbor had told him about similar handbills that he had seen in the neighborhood, but he had apparently never been shown one. He identified the photo as one taken of him and Plevak years before by Plevak's son. Plevak had cropped himself out of the photo, he said.
The man denied all of Plevak's allegations against him of criminal behavior and proved to have no criminal record.
Notes outline a basic plan
Police next obtained a search warrant for the trailer home and premises listed to Plevak in East Troy. There, they found a trove of oddities, including repeated rough outlines of a plan to kill someone. Among the finds:
- A folder containing another handbill like the others
- An old envelope addressed to Plevak from the intended victim's address
- Photos of the intended victim
- A handwritten note listing the rules and fees of the Eagle gun range
- A handwritten note reading, "CCI Velociraptor Hypervelocity ammunition 22 long rifle, 40 grain plated lead hollow point"
- A handwritten note reading, "Practice draw while wearing a coat/jacket. 1. Draw weapon 2. Safety off 3. Aim and fire 4. Flee 5. Safety on 6. Holster"
- A Walmart receipt for binoculars, ammunition and powder solvent dated Nov. 21
- Another handwritten note reading, "Practice drawing pistol while wearing a coat or jacket 1. Draw weapon 2. Safety off 3. Aim and shoot-shoot-shoot 4. Flee 5. Safety on 6. Holster," and below that, "Binoculars for range and surveillance, gun grease, spray cleaner, cleaning kit, targets and disguise."
- A calendar filled with multiple notes similar to the above.
- A handgun case
- A night-vision scope
- Gun-cleaning supplies, and a receipt for many of the items mentioned or found, including the bubble wrap
- Fifteen more handwritten notes with personal information about the intended victim and/or his fiancée including their employers and their addresses, maps, and the couple's interests and activities (all of which proved to be substantially correct).
- Three packages of self-adhesive fake mustaches, with one mustache missing; and
- A 100-count box of .22-caliber hollow-point ammo, minus 75 rounds.
Testimony piles up against defendant
There were still other people to talk to. Among yet other evidence that mounted up against Plevak:
- A range officer at McMiller Sports remembered Plevak practicing at the range just before Christmas and said he proficiently fired hundreds of rounds from various distances on the 25-yard range.
- A statement from a Waukesha police detective that Plevak in 2010 had reported that the intended victim had sexually assaulted his daughter 14 years before, and that she, by then 26, needed to file a complaint. She never did, the detective said, and so the matter was never investigated.
- Plevak's daughter told police that her father was obsessed with the intended victim and has been growing more so since the death of her brother about a year ago. She told police she believed her father would kill the man. She said nothing about any sexual assault on her involving the intended victim or anyone else.
- Plevak's brother told police that he believed him to be a very dangerous person and needing help. He said his brother constantly talked about protecting children, particularly his grandchildren.
- The statement alluded to above from a Milwaukee police officer that for some two years he has been responding to alerts from neighbors near the intended victim about the accusing handbills and has been finding them and taking them down all that time. There is no mention that the Milwaukee police ever thought to talk to the subject of the handbills about what was going on.
- Plevak's own criminal record: He was convicted in 1980 of two felony counts of battery of a police officer, hence he should never have owned, possessed or used a gun. He was also convicted in 1997 of battery. In that case, two more charges were filed but then dismissed, but were allowed to be read into the court record. They were: disorderly conduct; and recklessly causing bodily harm to a child by a parent or guardian.
Plevak is scheduled for a preliminary hearing at 1:30 p.m. next Monday.
The attempted homicide charge carries a penalty of up to 60 years in prison plus five more for the use of a dangerous weapon, if Plevak is convicted. A conviction on the separate weapons charge would add 10 more years if the sentences were to be served consecutively. ..Source.. by Jim Price

comedy that I
believe every Irishman must have seen at least
Reviewed by Dennis Schwartz
It's the epic romantic comedy that I believe every Irishman must have seen at least once. It has become in recent times part of the St. Patrick's day celebration, as it gets a regular American television airing on that date. The legendary John Ford does the directing honors; it's based on the Saturday Evening Post 1933 short story Green Rushes by Maurice Walsh and penned by Frank S. Nugent. It's filled with nostalgia and plenty of blarney, which after many viewings has soured my taste for this ethnic treat--a film I bought into as a kid but has now become too familiar. It was lushly filmed on location in Ireland.
The film is set in the 1920s. American exile Sean Thornton (John Wayne), the quiet man, a former boxer with a dark secret, arrives in his birthplace of Innisfree to buy the cottage he was born in from the widow Tillane (Mildred Natwick). This upsets wealthy farmer Squire 'Red' Will Danaher (Victor McLaglen), who had his eye on the property and resents that the Yank bought it. To make matters worse between the rivals, Sean falls for Will's fiery red-headed sister Mary Kate Danaher (Maureen O'Hara). Local custom says the brother must give consent to the marriage.
The heart of the story has Sean tame his love interest and get into a classic marathon brawl with the brutish Will, where the entire village turns out and divides up sides in their betting. Some of local Irish types depicted are the pragmatic priest (Ward Bond) who would prefer to fish than pray and the elfish cabbie (Barry Fitzgerald), he's the colorful matchmaker who conspires to trick Will into accepting the marriage.
It's a lively broad comedy and the actors, all from Ford's stock company he used in his Westerns, are fun to watch. It's interesting to note that Ford was unable to get the major Hollywood studios to financially back his labor of love, an Irish "Taming of the Shrew" tale, so he was forced to turn to Republic Pictures, known for their B-films and low-budget westerns. The bargain called for him to make in 1950 the Rio Grande and fulfill a three-picture deal with Republic before he could get them to back the modestly budgeted film he always wanted to make. Ford's The Quiet Man won an Oscar for Best Director.

"I have worked with Karen and her team at 501creative in the past at other agencies, and I've been looking forward to the day I could bring their design brains and muscle to Pi Beta Phi Foundation, which we were finally able to do in the last year. I keep coming back to them because they understand the balance a nonprofit must strike in producing outstanding materials in a way that conveys stewardship of our dollars, and they are always, always focused on the best way to tell our story visually and thematically. They've designed our terrific new, interactive website to meets the needs of several audiences and an outstanding annual report that our donors love. They have helped us tell our story in new, engaging ways and they consistently anticipate our needs and exceed our expectations."
"Maryanne did a fantastic job as always. Our board enjoyed the presentation and they are now working on reevaluating our programs in response to her excellent presentation. We will definitely recommend 501creative to our partners in the field."
"Over more than 10 years of work with 501creative, they have consistently turned out excellent work—on projects that span the gamut from large to small, print, digital, etc. One of the qualities I appreciate most is their bent toward problem solving. They don't expect their clients to have all of the solutions, but rather help discover the right solution through the process of working together. Due to their exclusive focus on non-profits, they understand our space and help us get the biggest bang for our buck."
"501creative helped us achieve our goal in creating a resource website to help families save and plan for college. Their design and creation took our website to the next level, and we have received overwhelming positive response with families, our schools and in the industry. They captured the core theme of an interactive and informative site and executed it flawlessly."
"501creative beautifully told the human stories of those served by the JCC through the campaign materials. They were quick studies and captured the essence of the agency and its rich history. Their experience articulating the case for support made a big difference."
"I feel that 501creative is an advocate for our cause. In the nonprofit world, it's all about building trust and relationships and feeling confident that someone is working "with you" to communicate the message, develop a quality product and doing it all within a tight budget. Thanks for having our back!"
"The video was a smashing success. The congregation applauded after each showing and the feedback we have received thus far is that people thought it was compelling and tastefully done. Several people said that it moved them to tears. Thank you so much for producing a top notch piece on a very short timeline. It has been a pleasure to work with you."
"The annual report was a huge hit at our annual meeting for board members last night! I heard so many wonderful comments about the design and look. We are so grateful for your help and guidance on this project to really turn out a report that tells public radio's story. Thank you again for the outstanding work. It is a joy to work with such an talented and gracious team!"
"Not having an in-house graphics design team to draw on, it's been great having 501creative on call…I feel comfortable knowing all our material will soon have a consistent look and feel. Having an agency dedicated to nonprofit needs is a wonderful tool!"
"I can't tell you how wonderful it has been to work with 501creative. I know I speak for YIMI when I say we are very happy with you guys. The pieces look great and our relationship with you is awesome. We really appreciate your service…your organization is top-notch. Looking forward to our continued relationship."
"Campaign energy fluctuates, and projects can move in fits and starts. One of the talents of 501creative is their ability to keep campaign message and materials creation moving forward. 501creative has supported campaigns for our clients, and when there is a gap in ideas and concepts, they always take known content and generate new and fresh ideas, new energy."
"Karen has created an extraordinary resource for the nonprofit sector, providing top-notch staff skilled in all aspects of strategic communications planning and delivery. 501 was integral in helping Trailnet re-define and strengthen our brand through website development coupled with design of print materials. I would highly recommend 501creative to any nonprofit looking to get their communications and marketing started or to take it to the next level."
"501creative gets it. They understand non-profit needs. They make my life sane. And the final product is effective and gorgeous. You won't find any better in St. Louis."
"501creative became Forest ReLeaf's agency of record shortly after its founding….and what a great decision that was! The magic and energy of Karen Handelman and her staff helped the agency capture three awards, including the prestigious National Arbor Day Foundation Education Award. St. Louis truly is blessed to have a full-service firm dedicated to the nonprofit arena…and nobody does it better than 501creative."

|Une après midi à la mer du Nord 18"x14" oil on board
I called it a challenge for many reasons: first I'm not particularly familiar with portraits/figures as 90% of my work is landscape. Secondly this was done from photograph and I've never met most of the people in the painting so it's was a challenge to include 5 adults, 4 kids, a dog and a horse (!) in the same painting and get them all right... Finally this particular scene as such never happened which means I didn't have one photograph to work from, but instead around 50 different photographs/portraits of everybody in various positions/lights/clothing so I had to come up with a suitable composition.
Here is how I did it:
Step1: composition
Before I could even dream of picking up my brushes, I had to come up with a concept, a composition that would enable me to display everybody in positions as natural as possible but still without showing anybody from behind. Being a Graphic Designer in my full time job, I thought I could make good use of my skills and do a photoshop montage using various pictures (some even from google for the background and objects), cutting out people and moving them around until I'm happy with it.
|Photoshop composition
Step2: photoshop filter
To test the quality of the composition, get the essence of the light and structure and to erase all the montage imperfections, I applied an artistic filter in photoshop. That enabled me to get a feel if this would work or not as a painting and could see it going somewhere.
|Photoshop artistic effects
Step3: sketch
Afterwards I did a quick sketch to place the characters properly.
|First sketch
Step4: oil background
Then I started painting the background of the painting (that's the easy bit).
|Background painting
Step5: sketch with grid
Then I did an other sketch of the outlines of the drawing and applied a grid to it.
|Sketch with grid
Step6: sketch and grid on the painting
I then traced the same grid on my painting to enable me to easily reproduce the drawing.
|Paintting with grid and sketch
Step7: colour blocking
I then started to gradually apply the colours and shapes of the people (and animals!) but I had to keep in mind where the light was coming from and keep it unified as the photographs on the photoshop composition were all from different lighting/colour etc...
|Building up the figures
Step8: painting the faces
The trickiest part was probably to get all the faces right and make them recognisable. I kept referring to various pictures on my laptop while painting to try to get the correct expressions and features.
|Adding details with the photo references
I wanted to only suggest the faces but still get them clear enough to be identifiable.
Step6: final touches
Here is the final painting. I added various objects and tried to unify the shadows and light effect.
|The final painting
The family was really happy with it (what a relief!) and I've just heard that the mother/grandmother was really happy too and moved when she received it. I've been told, when she received it, she kept repeating "I love it, I love it, it's beautiful."
So, it was a tough challenge but I'm so glad I did it!

Lewis N Wood Year: 2013 District: BansteadLong shadows on Remembrance Sunday at Banstead
The gathering of the people of Banstead at the War Memorial on Remembrance Sunday; heads bowed in respect of those who perished in the two World Wars.
A bright sunny November morning and as usual the people of Banstead turned out in great numbers to remember the fallen of the Village as well as others who gave their lives.
The Banstead History Research Group have spent years researching the stories of the men listed on this memorial and many of these are included in a beautifully presented hardback titled THESE MEN OF BANSTEAD Stories from the War Memorial.

Having Fun In The Kitchen~Enjoy Playing With Your Food
I watched this video today and had to share with all of you. This is something the kids might enjoy too, maybe even inspire them to join you in the kitchen too. It reminded me of younger days making mud pies and trying to imitate all the chefs I watched on television as a child. Those of us with children, know how kids can be entertained in the kitchen with something as simple as a pot or a pan and a wooden spatula.
What's your favorite part of the video? My husband and I love the dice sugar cube and the rubix cube garlic. A great reminder that creating a meal for your family can be fun with a simple imagination.

The concept Urbanears is spawned out of a number of ideas. Some that formed the project but just as many that came along the way. Primarily, there seemed to be no manufacturer of headphones out there that shared our belief in what headphones are and how they are used. Our passion is to make headphones with a profound understanding of how they are used, worn and why.
Our vision is to add a number of elements to the concept of performance. Beyond the obvious sound rendition we have a vision of making headphones that feel more like clothes than chromed plastics. We design headphones with respect to what they are expected to be, but with great attention to the details. An Urbanears headphone is always describable as a classic headphone, rather than a bold design statement redefining the product category.
We spend much time making our headphones affordable. Still we want each product to always come with a little extra functionality you wouldn't expect. And deliver great audio as well as ergonomics. Equally important, we work hard at making Urbanears available in a store near you.
The evolution of music formats has allowed you to carry your full collection in the pocket. Music has migrated from designated players into cell phones. It just seems stupid not to add a microphone and a remote, allowing you to pick up calls and communicate. We try to make your Urbanears function with the most possible devices out there.
We are MUSIC LOVERS
We believe music has the POWER to touch you, move you and inspire you.
We are SAVIORS OF SOUND changing the world through incredible music experiences.
We believe MUSIC can help you be happier, run faster, think clearer and love better.
For every great moment there's a song that goes with it.
We believe this is the SOUNDTRACK OF YOUR LIFE.

Sleep deprivation impacts academics and safety.
From memory to judgment, attention span, emotional stability and even immunity, sleep deprivation negatively affects school-age children," reports Kristin Avis, MD, a sleep specialist and assistant professor of pediatrics at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UA. Of children under age 18, 60 percent polled by the National Sleep Foundation (NSF) complained of being tired during the day, and 15 percent reported falling asleep at school.
The NSF has guidelines for how much sleep children of various ages require. Three-five year-olds need 11 to 13 hours per night, while 5-to 12-year olds need 10-11 hours.
"As for adolescents, it's a common myth that they need less sleep and can handle only seven or eight hours," said Dr. Avis. "They actually need nine hours of sleep. That's typically the most sleep-deprived population in school.
A student can make up for the lack of one good night's sleep, but going an entire school week without sufficient rest can be detrimental, she noted. "You can sleep until noon on Saturday and feel caught up, but then you will go to bed later that night, sleep in on Sunday, and then repeat the cycle into the new school week."
Children need a suitable amount of sleep every night. Their bedrooms should be as tranquil as possible, which means removing noise-makers.
"On average, there are three to four electronic gadgets in a kid's room," Dr. Avis reported. "It's been shown that even sleeping with a television on deprives them of 20 minutes of sleep per night, which may not sound like a lot but adds up over a week's time.
'Cell phones are often used as an alarm clock, but for about $5 you can invest in a real alarm clock so the phone can be turned off," added Stephanie Wallace, MD, assistant professor of pediatrics at UAB.
Dr. Avis is exploring further what a bad night's rest can do to a child. She and David Schwebel, PhD, professor of psychology and director of the Youth Safety Lab at UAB, are studying sleep deprivation and pedestrian injury and general safety among children.

Aly, Michelangelo's Son
Our modern age loves simplicity, and one solitary meaning for everything, but when writing a tale set in the Renaissance, one needs to allow for a wisdom greater by far. In the book Aly, Michelangelo's Son, the main character loves layers, and how each new one offers something different about any subject of fascination. On completing the novel, I found that I had followed him, not modernity, and that I had incorporated no less than twelve such levels into the book on his life.
Passionate Action!
There is the surface story of Aly, a tale of passion, outrage, anger, assassination, a tale beset by a panoply of hidden identities and political intrigues. It traces his life from birth as a slave, accepted by Michelangelo, who depicted him secretly on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, as his son. The young man went on to accomplishments both in art… and assassination, indeed hiding the details of his exploits in some hundreds of paintings that still exist. His great purpose in life was to stop the terrifying barbarism being perpetrated in the New World and Old, but things never seemed to work out quite as expected.
Renaissance and Slavery
Secondly, there is the setting: the Renaissance, in Italy, France, Spain, the Netherlands, Germany, England, and Scotland. It covers the first European visits to Brazil, China and Japan, and as a backdrop it addresses corruption in the heart of the Vatican, and the horrors of the Spanish genocide in the Caribbean, and the birth of trans-Atlantic slavery.
Dark Secrets
Third, it exposes vast misconceptions regarding the period's most famous names, not only in startling revelations about who was related to whom, but also in how they used a variety of aliases, aliases we now take to be different people. In particular it looks at the double lives of the artists Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Durer; the explorers Columbus, Bartolomeo Dias, and Pedro Alvares Cabral; the Pope, Julius II – and various monarchs including Edward V (who survived the Tower). The tale shows how these dark machinations affected the survival of monarchs such as Henry VIII, Edward VI, and Mary I (all of whom were murdered), and reveals that Elizabeth I had a child she called Robert.
What's Life For?
Trying to speak (as a 72 year-old) for someone who died in his eighties, there is also an exploration of the purpose of life. This takes many forms, including parallels in the world of art: how one adds pigment to create a painting, but chips away at stone to create a sculpture – and how inspiration can be found in chaos.
Counterfeit Universes
Fifth, the narrative examines the role of words and stories in creating a second, counterfeit universe, a fiction that masquerades as the world of our experience, distorting our view of life, and leading us to be endlessly deceived. And this leads to the next level:
More Mischief of Words
Beyond this duplicity of words, the book also glances at the very structure of language, and how it subverts our understanding of the world. Unashamedly inspired by the work of Sapir and Whorf, this level is deliberately subversive, trying to undermine the rigidity with which grammar rules our thinking. Some nouns and adjectives and about 30 adverbs have been 'verbed' to throw new light on the way language intercepts our attempts to make sense of our world. I do this not to prove how clever I am, since I long accepted the bitter truth that I am not, but hoping to draw attention not only to the mischief words engage in, but also the malevolence of the rules by which they are strung together.
The Duplicity of Truth
This links to another major theme, the seventh, that of the brittleness of certainty, the fraud of faith, and the duplicity of truth, and how one can live in a world where fact and fiction, good and evil, love and barbarism are inextricably mixed, and everything has multiple meanings.
Words of Genius
The eighth level is more playful, and fictional in the sense that where great people have had something very relevant to say on events in the book, I have sometimes included them. I have added well-established quotes from Leonardo and Michelangelo, but you will also find other brief references to people not yet born when Aly was alive – from Cervantes to Ali Smith; Shakespeare, Chekhov, Tolstoy and Roland Barthes to Derek Walcott, Julian Barnes, and Jamie Holmes -and my dear friend Ellen Dissanayake. So as not to disrupt the flow, but equally not to plagiarise them, I Italianized their first names and attributed the saying as if they were Aly's friends – which I think they would have been!
Metaphor and Symbol
The ninth is a metaphorical and symbolic layer, one of light and shadow, of the wind and ocean; time as seen through the hourglass, candle, sundial and clock, and through the ageing of the human body; of labyrinths, monsters, heroes and scarlet threads; of indulgences, pilgrimages and relics; of leaves, fruit, and stepping stones true and false, and the perilous gaps that lurk between; of camouflage and deception – husks and the seed within, of peel and fruit, bark and the trunk inside, and of swords and their scabbards.
The tenth is mythological, drawing as Aly would have, not only from Hebrew legend and the Bible, but from that of the Greeks and native Caribbean people, and that too of King Arthur, a famous version of which became a bestseller just seven years before he was born. This is not only to try to conjure up some of the feeling of the time, but because the characters – the Chimera, the Ouroboros, Nemesis, Excalibur, Polyphemus and Medusa all play a vital part, and offer useful mental tools for better understanding our times.
Buried Deep
The eleventh? Well, I kept noticing parallels between Aly's story and the oldest legend we now know, one discovered in recent times written in cuneiform inscriptions on tablets of clay… The story wasn't known in Aly's day, but its echoes doubtless had an impact, so I tucked it away where only the most observant and determined will find it.
Number Twelve
And the twelfth? The most important of all, but I've said enough. That is for you to find when you read the book! One of the purposes of art is to deepen the mystery, after all!

Tianyu Zhang, PhD
Post doctoral Fellow
Research Interests:
Latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI- the initial infection of TB develops under the pressure of host immunity into a paucibacillary latent state which may reactivate into clinical disease at a later time.) is a very serious a problem in the world. It is estimated that one-third of the world's population is infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, but that only 10% of infected people break down with the disease. Treatment of LTBI requires a long period of chemotherapy (9-month course of therapy with INH alone or a regimen using rifampin alone for 4 months), which makes treatment-compliance extremely difficult. So, to find a good regiment to cure LTBI is very urgent. However, there is no very good animal model of LTBI until now, which hampered the study of LTBI treatment seriously. My object is to develop a satisfactory cost-effective, highly reproducible and time-saving mouse model of LTBI. In addition, the model can be used to identify genes involved in LTBI formation by testing known TB mutants.
The Mycobacterium tuberculosis genome analysis reveals a lot of genes encoding putative drug efflux pumps. During the course of tuberculosis chemotherapy many of these pumps might play a role in the survival of the mycobacterial populations. Recent reports have suggested that efflux pumps may be involved in transporting isoniazid, one of the main drugs used to treat tuberculosis. The active efflux pumps in mycobacteria may increase in number and activity rendering wild-type mycobacteria increasingly resistant to a given antibiotic. This could be a mechanism by which mutated resistant strains become better fit to the selective environment and in chemotheorapy some TB bacilli with higher efflux activity can persist longer and better. Compounds capable of inactivating these pumps could improve anti-tuberculous therapeutics. We have found some transposon-TB mutants with efflux genes mutated are more sensitive to some widely used drugs. Further study is being carried out.
In addition, Mycobacterium ulcerans is a slow growing (a colony can be seen in about 1 and a half months on the plate) pathogenic bacterium which can cause Buruli ulcer. I have created some engineered luminescent M. ulcerans strains with luciferase as a biomarker. The strains may be very useful in chemotherapy study and in drug screening[1].

Home Design. Wednesday , September 05th , 2018 - 16:12:03 PM
Coming up with a good home design does not happen overnight, especially since this concept requires specification and time in order for you to achieve the look that you want for each corner, ceiling, wall, and other important nooks in your home. In this modern world, you can find various home interior design ideas, especially on the Internet. Most of these ideas can be easily accessed for free for you to use and implement so that you can successfully design and decorate your home with both elegance and class. Your home is one of your biggest possessions so it is just right that you want it to look best. Each corner will need proper concentration and in order to help you out, here are several interior design ideas that might be of help to you should you decide to give your house its much-needed touch-up.
There are many area rugs on the market that are definitely cheap. Now let's not go too cheap though, because an area rug is a design element that can last a lifetime. And it's portable. You can always take it with you, or move it to another area when you adjust your home design. Rug styles also last, they don't become outdated the way that other design elements can. And the best news is that a good quality wool rug does not have to cost a fortune. We feature 10'x13' area rugs on our web site that are less than $500.00. This is quality and economy that will last a long time in your home. Many of these rugs were designed to last twenty-five years or more.
The last tool I would like to discuss is also just as important as the first two and yet so often overlooked that literally we walk all over it. You must update your FLOORING. You can do all you want with furnishings and such, but if you set everything on and against a backdrop of outdated flooring and flooring colors, you have pretty much just wasted your time. What is that I hear? Someone is complaining about the cost of updating to modern flooring. You can update your floors without spending a fortune. Many hard surface floors, such as laminate, are designed to be installed by the homeowner, as a do-it-yourself project and this saves you money. Still too much for you to spend right now? Let me ask you this. Would most of you drive around in a twenty-year old car? No! And yet many of us think nothing of walking around on twenty years of dust, dirt, allergens and just plain outdated color. Your home and your family deserve better. If you are renting or living in a dorm or other such circumstance, you simply cannot replace that outdated floor. Or can you? If all else is impractical, then consider using an AREA RUG. They come in all sizes, shapes and colors, and can be the perfect solution to your flooring problem. It is a fact, that you will not browse any interior design magazine without seeing an area rug on the floor. That is how important they are to home design. You will also be pleasantly surprised at how reasonably priced rugs can be.

UPDATE: I am using a COMMON CATHODE 7-Segment display here.
Now, we will be studying how to display numbers (or even some letters) to the 7-segment display on your Arduino-compatible board (I wrote an article on how to create your own Arduino-compatible board which you might want to see first : My First DIY Arduino Board.
Below are the needed components for this exercise:
- One (1) 7-Segment Display
- Two (2) 220-ohm Resistors
- Eight (8) Male-to-Male Jumper Wires
- Arduino boar (or in our case, the DIY Arduino-compatible board I created)
- FTDI Serial to TTL Module with Male-to-female jumper wires attached to it
- USB Cable for communicating with the Arduino IDE
Items 1-3 are the main components for this exercise, and items 4-6 are actually explained in the above-mentioned article I wrote previously.
Before going to attach anything to the 7-segment display, we first study its pinouts (to the board). Take a look at the image image below:
The pin labels above need to be attached to the corresponding pins to our Atmega328 microcontroller. (Refer to the above-mentioned article I wrote for the Atmega328 pinout).
7-segment display pin 1 – Arduino Digital Pin 6 (Atmega328 Pin 12)
7-segment display pin 2 – Arduino Digital Pin 5 (Atmega328 Pin 11)
7-segment display pin 3 – GND via 220-ohm resistor
7-segment display pin 4 – Arduino Digital Pin 4 (Atmega328 Pin 6)
7-segment display pin 5 – may be assigned with a digital pin in Arduino if needed.
7-segment display pin 6 – Arduino Digital Pin 3 (Atmega328 Pin 5)
7-segment display pin 7 – Arduino Digital Pin 2 (Atmega328 Pin 4)
7-segment display pin 8 – Arduino GND via 220-ohm resistor
7-segment display pin 9 – Arduino Digital Pin 8 (Atmega328 Pin 14)
7-segment display pin 10 – Arduino Digital Pin 9 (Atmega328 Pin 15)
The segments are actually controlled by the following Arduino digital pins. Refer to the details below:
Segment "a" – Arduino Digital Pin 2
Segment "b" – Arduino Digital Pin 3
Segment "c" – Arduino Digital Pin 4
Segment "d" – Arduino Digital Pin 5
Segment "e" – Arduino Digital Pin 6
Segment "f" – Arduino Digital Pin 8
Segment "g" – Arduino Digital Pin 9
Now, attach the 7-segment display component to the breadboard as shown in the image below:
After attaching the 7-segment display, connect the corresponding pins of this component to the digital pins of the Atmega328 microcontroller. Please refer to the discussion above regarding pin assignments to the microcontroller (or Arduino-compatible board):
Attach the FTDI Seria to TTL module to the breadboard, connecting its pins to its respective Atmega328 pin counterpart (Details of the FTDI Serial to TTL module is discussed in my previous articles):
Now, the next thing to be done is to prepare your code, to light up the segments.Basically each segment is assigned to a digital pin as discussed above. If we set the digital pin to HIGH, then the corresponding segment for that digital pin lights up. Numbers or even some letters are created by lighting up several combinations of segments. Below is my sample code for the 7-segment display:
// My first 7-segment display experiment int a = 2; //For displaying segment "a" int b = 3; //For displaying segment "b" int c = 4; //For displaying segment "c" int d = 5; //For displaying segment "d" int e = 6; //For displaying segment "e" int f = 8; //For displaying segment "f" int g = 9; //For displaying segment "g" void setup() { // put your setup code here, to run once: pinMode(a, OUTPUT); // segment a pinMode(b, OUTPUT); // segment b pinMode(c, OUTPUT); // segment c pinMode(d, OUTPUT); // segment d pinMode(e, OUTPUT); // segment e pinMode(f, OUTPUT); // segment f pinMode(g, OUTPUT); // segment g } void loop() { // display the digit 5 digitalWrite(a,HIGH); digitalWrite(b,LOW); digitalWrite(c,HIGH); digitalWrite(d,HIGH); digitalWrite(e,LOW); digitalWrite(f,HIGH); digitalWrite(g,HIGH); }
Compile the code above (CTRL-R in the Arduino IDE), and upload this sketch to the microcontroller (CTRL-U in the Arduino IDE). Once successful, you should be seeing the 7-segment display component displaying the digit 5, as seen from the image below:
Thank you very much for reading this tutorial, guys! Hope this helps. You might want to do some experiments, like displaying the digits from 0 to 9 every second. Try it! Let me know how you go.

Sculpting is coming along. Nowada is almost finished and the anatomy on the Sword Maiden is blocked out.
Several new armatures are posed and ready to go on the next batch of Babes.
Kevin also completed the iSlug Sidekick.
I have been noodling with ZBrush and go the basic structure of Maelee's wrench blocked out.
The next round of sculpts will need to be completed as soon as possible to get our first batch off to the master mold maker. As you can see from the mold layout there is space for several more Babes and quite a few Sidekicks. The plan is to get this mold pressed before the end of the month.
More stuff next Friday. Lots of new things on the schedule for this week.

The EEA – Extended family member's appeal rights were withdrawn further to the judgement in the case of Sala (EFMs: Right of Appeal : Albania) [2016] UKUT 411 (IAC). The Upper Tribunal in this case has ruled that there is no right of appeal against a decision by the Home Office to refuse a residence card to a person claiming to be an extended family member.
A a direct result of this judgement, the Home Office updated their guidelines regarding the appeal rights & all subsequent application refusals did not carry any right of appeal. The First Tier tribunal also invalidated appeals outstanding with them which caused a real panic among the appellants.
The court of appeal considered this in the case of MK Pakistan & overturned the judgement yesterday by allowing the appeal on the interpretation grounds. The effect of the decision is that all those appeals pending under the 2006 Regulations should now be able to proceed. Those that have resulted in notices of invalid appeal will need to be challenged. This point may be slightly academic now, in the sense that only the 2006 Regulations are directly affected, but the path to a challenge to the 2016 Regulations now exists.
If you are affected by SALA case and wants any further advise on how to challenge this, please call one of our experts on 020 3695 4626.

SPE education initiative Energy4me held its first Russian teacher workshop during the SPE Russian Oil and Gas Exploration and Production Technical Conference and Exhibition in Moscow on 16 October, the final day of the three-day event.
After a greeting from 2014 SPE Russian and Caspian Regional Director Andrey Gladkov—who stressed the industry's growing demand for more technical training of young students—student members from Gubkin State University of Oil and Gas in Moscow led the 14 attending middle and secondary school teachers in a series of classroom experiments designed to demonstrate different scientific concepts involved in the upstream oil and gas industry. The seven exercises explored several oil and gas areas, including production, with "Getting the Oil Out," where participants used common classroom materials to transport liquids, and "Forms and Sources of Energy," which educates students about how heat, friction, and other actions create energy. After the experiments, teachers learned ways to include downstream topics in their lesson plans with "The Peak Oil Game," which focused on refining and products.
Later in the session, teachers were given a tour of the conference's exhibition area to see oilfield technology up close and to learn about employment opportunities in the oil and gas industry. Energy4me closed the workshop by providing instructors with teaching materials to reproduce the day's experiments in their own classrooms.

Handling An Aggressive Beagle
In all dogs, Beagles included, there are two major types of aggression: aggression towards humans, and aggression towards animals. These are completely different, and stem from completely different causes. This article deals with Beagles that act aggressively towards humans.
Who's the Alpha?
Fortunately, Beagles are not particularly aggressive dogs. Of course, given the necessary circumstances, every dog will act aggressively; the good news is that it shouldn't be overly hard to teach your Beagle that aggressive behavior is not acceptable.
Make sure you haven't 'humanized' your dog. Your dog is a dog. Some owners have a real tendency to think of their dog as a little human, dressed in a furry suit: "Oh, he just doesn't like sharing the couch" or "He only acts that way when he's tired" or "He's just got a big personality" and so on. Aggression is never acceptable and it only stems from ONE cause: your dog thinks he's the boss. From your Beagle's point of view, he's been given ample opportunity to confirm his self-perceived position as the leader of the pack (read: house) and won't back down until you prove that you're the leader, not him.
Aggressive behavior is a sure sign of dominance: whoever your Beagle is acting aggressively to, he considers himself above them in the ranked social structure of the 'pack' (house). If he is acting dominantly towards all members of the family, this means that he considers himself to be the 'alpha' of the entire house.
What's Dominance?
All dogs are pack animals. In every pack, there is one leader; everyone else is a follower. This leader is called the alpha, and everyone obeys the alpha - no questions asked. If your Beagle is acting aggressively to you, this is dominance: that is, he's acting like you're the follower and he's the leader. No follower would EVER show aggression towards the leader.
Your Beagle doesn't 'want' to be number one, but every pack must have a leader to survive. Evidently nobody else in the house is filling that role, so instinct has compelled him to take over, for the good of the pack.
How Aggression Relates to Dominance
No dog will ever show aggression towards a dog that is above him in the pack hierarchy. Dogs will only ever attempt to control or correct other dogs who are below them in the chain of command. By showing aggression to you, your dog is attempting to 'correct' your behavior to what he (as the leader) deems acceptable. Typical aggressive/dominant behavior includes:
Ways to Deal With Aggression
Here are some basic tips for dealing with dominance/aggression in your Beagle.
Get Help
Aggression is a serious matter. Remember, this behavior is not his fault - if you had proved your leadership in a way that your Beagle recognizes, this situation would not have come about. Your Beagle is effectively acting as you have entitled him to: his position as the dominant or alpha dog has been confirmed, since his dominant behavior has not been corrected, and correcting other members of the pack (which is what he's doing when he acts aggressively) is a natural behavior for an alpha.
Never be afraid or ashamed to ask for help. Most people are unable to cope with aggressive behavior on their own. For the sake of yourself and your dog, it's best to err on the side of caution; speak to your vet about a referral to an experienced dog trainer in the area who specializes in aggressive behavior.
