Nature Notes
Brin Best
Wharefdale Naturalists' Society
ALTHOUGH my eyes and ears are usually focussed on bird arrivals from the south in late March, it was a group of exotic-looking avian travellers heading north that attracted my attention this week.
On our way to pick up the car in a bland Leeds car park, I noticed a small group of birds drifting overhead, giving a distinctive bell-like call. "Waxwings" I shouted, giving my wife a little fright, as she 'awoke' from mulling over the events of the day in her office.
Luckily, the small flock of waxwings landed in a nearby apple tree, still laden with small fruit from last autumn, many of which were now rotting in situ. They provided perfect feeding opportunities for the waxwings, which dropped onto the apples and pecked eagerly at the soft fruit.
These Leeds waxwings are about to embark on a long migration to their breeding grounds in northern Scandinavia or Russia. They may well have started their journey from a location in the south of England, where they've spent the winter gorging themselves on berries such as rowan and cotoneaster.
As the waxwings leave us to the north, so millions of new arrivals are about to spill into Britain from the south, most of which have been wintering south of the Sahara.
Their long, perilous journeys represent incredible feats of navigation and stamina, crossing multiple country borders and facing many dangers along the route.
A friend sent me an extraordinary photograph he took in Senegal, West Africa, a couple of weeks ago. It showed tens of thousands of sand martins feeding over a lake, refuelling on their epic journey to the UK.
Some of these very birds could any day be arriving in Yorkshire at sites such as Otley Gravel Pits, where they will wheel around in search of their insect prey, and excavate their burrows in the soft banks of the nearby river Wharfe.
In the spring and summer we like to think of these long-distance migrants as 'our' birds, as they choose to nest among us. But in truth, they also belong to Senegal where they spend time refuelling and to the African nations further south where they spend the winter - and to so many other countries along their migration route.
The waxwings, sand martins and all the other migrants that spend part of their life cycle in the UK remind us that birds have a truly global outlook; they rely on the interconnectedness of countries and habitats, and on the shifting seasons of the planet they call home. They are denizens of planet Earth.

With the way my progress has been with C# programming I've decided to install Unity 5 and planned on creating a project.
With the Unity 5 project, I began to learn 3D-coat with my copy on steam to create player models. So far progress has been getting to know the tools, but not any workflow. So I'm unsure what I should be doing to develop a base model to sculpt in 3D-coat.
Along with C# programming, I'm continuing to expand my knowledge of the high level language before I go to something lower lever such as C++. Know people say a lot of negative things towards Windows Forms I think it's safe to learn WPF for creating GUI(Graphic User Interface)
Then with school year starting off, this year I am in a class called Animation at a Skill Center school, as what we're doing is so far drawing in photoshop. So I am now also getting my fair share of practice with digital illustration.

Effect of Acute Salt Ingestion Upon Core Temperature in Healthy Men
Publication Title
Hypertension Research
Publication Date
Document Type
adult, blood pressure, body temperature regulation, drinking, hypertension, humans, male, dietary, sodium chloride
Medicine and Health Sciences
Salt intake may cause conflict for the cardiovascular system as it attempts to simultaneously maintain blood pressure (BP) and temperature homeostasis. Our objective was to determine the effect of a salt and water load vs. a water load upon rectal temperature (Tre) in healthy volunteers. Twenty-two healthy, non-hypertensive Caucasian men enrolled in two trials in which they ingested either salt and body temperature water (SALT), or body temperature water (WATER). BP, Tre, cardiac index, peripheral resistance and urine output were monitored one, 2 and 3 h post-baseline. Changes in the dependent variables were compared between those subjects who were salt sensitive (SS) and those who were salt resistant (SR) at the same time intervals. The percentage change reduction in Tre was greater following SALT compared with WATER at +120 min (-1.1±0.7 vs. -0.6±0.5%, P=0.009) and at +180 min (-1.3±0.8 vs. -0.7±0.6%, P=0.003). The percentage change reduction in Tre was greater in the SR group compared with the SS group at +180 min (-1.6±0.9 vs. -0.9±0.5%, P=0.043). SALT decreased Tre more than WATER. SS individuals maintained temperature homeostasis more effectively than SR individuals following SALT. These results may explain why some individuals are SS while others are SR. If these results are generalizable, it would be possible to account for the role of sodium chloride in the development of SS hypertension.

This is a very special album made of fabric and lace. The lace around each page is hand-stitched. Each page is machine stitched into the album so it won't come apart. I embellished with lots of bridal applique from a wedding dress, ribbon roses and faux pearls. There are 12 pages inside the album (6 two-sided base pages) , and a total of 14 pages if you include the inside front and back covers.
It measures approximately 9" wide by 12" high. The spine is between 3-1/2 to 4" thick (hard to measure thickness because it's fabric).
I included lots of photo mats and pull-outs in the pockets, and there is even a waterfall. The album is kept closed with a button on the front cover and a loop of faux-pearls attached to the back cover. It comes in it's own protective pouch which I also embellished with lace, applique, ribbon roses and a faux-pearl closure.
This would make a gorgeous gift sure to be treasured, ideal for a wedding or anniversary , or any other very special occasion.
All of the cardstock and papers I used for the pull-outs and photo mats are good quality and acid free, as are the adhesives I used. I used a thick 160lb watercolour cardstock where the photo mats are attached to the pages, for a very sturdy non-bending base.
Below is a video that shows the album and I'm also including photos further below.
If you have difficulties playing the video you can view it on my YouTube channel at: https://youtu.be/6IJ4I4ulqPY.
Album stores in protective pouch
I really enjoy my craft so I pay extra special attention to details. This set took me a VERY long time to complete. Comes from a smoke-free and pet-free home.
REMINDER: Please do not let young children play with this item as small embellishments might become detached which could be a choking hazard.

District Development Interactive Map
Palm Court
This image shows the southernmost end of the Paseo Ponti pedestrian walkway, which will cross 38th to 42nd streets. The project was the first in Miami to be awarded Gold LEED-ND (Neighborhood Design) by the U.S. Green Building Council. At the most southern point of Paseo Ponti, the walkway will end in Palm Court, which is pictured here with a prototype of Buckminster Fuller's 24-foot Fly's Eye Dome.
Sou Fujimoto Palm Court Facing Facade
A mixed-use retail building located in Palm Court will feature a façade designed by award winning Japanese architect Sou Fujimoto. Inspired by the flowing movement of waterfalls and Miami's rain, the building's two-floor structure will feature an elongated series of glass fins extending from the rooftop down to the courtyard creating a dynamic visual spectacle and alluding to the prevalent aquatic nature of the city.
Event Space
The 5,000 square foot event space by design team Aranda/Lasch is perched above the surrounding buildings with a commanding view of the district. A custom system of folding hardwood doors react completely to create a seamless outdoor environment only possible in Miami. All together the building's bold structure, floral decoration and airy openness combine to make a uniquely Floridian space.
Aranda/Lasch Building
The retail building by design duo Aranda/Lasch is a new commercial space in the Miami Design District, which will house four luxury retail tenants including Tom Ford. Inspired by the pleated Art Deco patterns found in architecture and fashion, the new building is given a contemporary texture that evokes the theatrical exuberance and luxurious ornament of Miami's golden era.
JBL Building
For the retail JBL Building, architects K/R conceived the façade design as a continuous wall of specialty brick with commercial spaces carved out from it. K/R's bold design will allow for the draw and appeal of each retailer's custom façade with appropriate rhythm and separation between them.
Leong Leong, City View Garage
Leong Leong has been commissioned to design the West façade of the City View Garage, which explores the relationship between material efficiency and atmospheric effects. The technique of cutting and folding is applied to series gold Titanium Coated stainless steel panels, which generates a shimmering visual pattern, evoking a foliage-like pattern.
Iwamoto Scott
Iwamoto Scott's City View façade wraps around the South East corner of the garage and encompasses an elevator lobby, exterior stair and office block. The façade forms a tessellated mural that strategically conceals the parking slabs behind while allowing for natural ventilation. Iwamoto Scott is an award winning architecture and design firm established by Lisa Iwamoto and Craig Scott in 2000.

There are certain situations where a second mortgage would be a good move. You have to be very sure about it however as taking out a second mortgage is no joke. And doing it the wrong way can cost you even more in the long run.click here now!
Is Second Mortgage Rates Lower Than First?
One reason some people are encouraged to use a second mortgage is because they believe that the rates will be much lower than on the first one. The truth is that normally the rates for the second mortgage are higher simply because there is a greater risk to the lender. When the borrower defaults on the loan, the lender would only be paid if there was any money left after the initial mortgage has been paid.
There are also some situations where the second mortgage could come with a lower rate. This might happen when the second mortgage has an adjustable rate. The current condition in the market might make the rate lower than the first.
Second Mortgages Are Not Recommended
Taking out a second mortgage to make payments for the first is not a recommended move. It carries certain risks that might make it harder for the borrower to pay back the loan later on. Of course, there would always be exceptions. In cases where the balance of the first loan is small, and the rate is high, then taking out a second mortgage with a lower rate is a better move to make.
Using A Second Mortgage
A second mortgage is a great way to get hold of cash when you need it. By using the value of your home, you can get the money you need.
Here are some of the advantages.
It is easy to get a second mortgage since it is taken against the value of the house and is, therefore, a secured loan
The interest to a second mortgage is tax deductible
You can get a substantial amount of money in a relatively fast period
With those advantages, it is easy to see why many homeowners resort to second mortgages to get some cash. It is a fast and convenient way of getting the money that you need.
Disadvantages of Second Mortgages
There are also some problems in connection with second mortgages. Here are some of those drawbacks.
You are risking your house when taking out a second mortgage. In case you default, the lender can take away your house as the payment for what you owe.
The interest rates are high. Since this is a second mortgage, usually its rates would be higher than the first.
These are just some of the drawbacks of getting a second mortgage.get details from http://themortgagereports.com/18849/freddie-mac-mortgage-rates-below-4-percent-january-14-2016
Be Sure About the Reasons
You have to be certain about the reason why you are taking out a second mortgage. It should be a valid one because you are risking your home in the process and the possibility of losing it is very real.

Type as Brush
Each letter in each font has unique shape and characteristics. This typographic design work is a series of work from step 1 to the step 5. I picked up three different letter in different font: lower case y in Garamond; upper case letter Q in Century and capital letter A in Baskerville. In this step, I wanted to use these three letters as the paintbrush to create a balance negative space by connecting each other. Then in the step 2, I added three short words and cross them with the three letters, which created another kinds of the spaces. In step 3, I added a paragraph and added it to the letters and words. In step 4, I added combined different textures to the spaces that shaped by paragraph, words and letters. In the final step, I combined one Guitar as a object with the texture, paragraph, words and letter, which created some completely pictures. In this project, I wan to show that each element: letter, word, paragraph, texture and object could be regarded as paintbrushes functionally rather than shapes themselves. Also, I want to show the significance of corporation of each different kind of element and how they create negative spaces.

|Greyhound Original watercolor by Juan Bosco
ITEM SPECIFICS nº 1101:
Sighthounds, also called gazehounds, are hounds that primarily hunt by speed and sight, instead of by scent and endurance as scent hounds do.
Sighthounds such as the Saluki have existed for at least 5,000 years, with the earliest presumed sighthound remains appearing in the excavations of Sumer dated approximately 7000–6000 BC.
The earliest description of a sighthound in European recorded history comes from Arrian's Cynegeticus, of the 2nd century AD. Although today most sighthounds are kept primarily as pets, they have been bred for thousands of years to detect movement, chase, capture, and kill prey primarily by speed. They thrive on physical activity. Some have mellow personalities, others are watchful or even hostile towards strangers, but the instinct to chase running animals remains strong.

Bulk WhatsApp Marketing Tool
Here's the real truth about most of the solutions for operating WhatsApp marketing campaigns.
If you don't have the right tool to send bulk WhatsApp messages. You will lose your time, energy, efforts, money and also the opportunity cost that you have at stake.
I know this. Because I find so many people who enter WhatsApp marketing but then fail at it. And then, blame it on the tools, software, scripts, and solutions that are available out on the web.
But frankly, till the time you don't have the clarity in terms of whats the real essentials that are required to run any sort of WhatsApp marketing campaign, heck even manage to scale those numbers to larger user base.
When I started writing posts on this website. Which I feel always had a place on the web. Like being covered by Patch.com or HuffingtonPost.com for the same reason.
I can say that I know a thing or two. Ok?
So, STOP your search for that next amazing super awesome WhatsApp marketing software, blaster, panel, or whatever that you are trying to search. Ok?
Because I will tell you the truth about each and every one of them. And help you not waste anymore of your time, money and research time.
I will be completely honest with you. And tell you everything BLUNTLY.
Without giving a shit if you buy any of these products or services OR NOT.
But, it's my responsibility to tell you the truth. I owe it to you. And I feel I will leave a legacy in this industry. But, at least guiding few people and stopping you from all the misery that I had to go through to understand WhatsApp marketing.
I had sleepless nights, when my campaigns stopped working. Because I have made a lot of bread and butter from this. And I won't deny.
IT REALLY HURTS. When your income stops. Because your solution isn't working anymore!
I have not only tried each and every god damn tool, script, blaster, panel that exists in the marketplace.
But, I have also gone through the trial and errors. Invested lots and lots of money in operating WhatsApp marketing campaigns from many vendors, service providers, and agencies.
And now, I feel I have an edge. That's because I learnt from my success as well as my failure. And I have sticked around for a LOOOONG time. Without stopping.
Which I believe MOST OF THE PEOPLE do. In WhatsApp marketing industry.
That's why. I have created a small report – which gives A to Z of WhatsApp marketing. And also a webinar which shows you LIVE. What works. And what doesn't.
Go and sign up below. And I will give you the complete information.
P.S. I won't charge you a single penny for it. It's completely 100% free of cost. It's my gift to you.
NOTE: If you enjoy reading it. Please forward to your friends and people in need. Share it on Facebook, forums, communities, and any place where you feel it will help anyone interested in getting started with WhatsApp marketing.

Pure and pristine looking, this Bledlow 3 Piece Ensemble is a great look for the casual Steampunk woman who wants to look pretty and tough.
McGreedy Pirate Blouse: Our McGreedy Pirate blouse is made of thick and rich viscose rayon fabric. It has a full elasticized shoulder for the classic renaissance look. The front opening with the featured ties allows the pirate blouse to be worn with or without the tying knot. This pirate blouse would look great with Pirate outfits as well as Medieval and Renaissance outfits. The blouse features more than enough femininity while still giving that pirate look and feel to it from the high seas.
Layered Bustle Skirt: The Layered Bustle Skirt is a beautiful garment that comes complete with an attached bustle, giving it a look that resonates with an older style. This white skirt is made from soft satin fabric and features a layered look that is all at once simple, striking, and timelessly classic. The skirt also features a white poplin lining which adds an extra bit of thickness and layering to the skirt, while also making it more comfortable to wear. Attached to the back of the skirt is a bustle, which enhances the flow and silhouette of the skirt. The Layered Bustle Skirt features the simple elegance of the old, refreshed with just a subtle hint of modern styling.
The Bledlow Jacket: Not only will you feel quite empowered whenever you wear the Bledlow Jacket, but you will also look pretty darn good, too. This garment is a sleeveless, vest-shaped jacket that emits a definite corset-styled vibe, especially when the jacket is worn fitted to the body. The jacket is made from faux black leather and features an inner lining of black twill fabric for comfortable wearing. The front of the jacket features a zipper, while the back side features a drawstring with eyelets that can be used to give the jacket a form-fitted look. Four additional buckles on the back are added purely for decoration to enhance the look and Steampunk feel of the wearer. The Bledlow Jacket is the perfect garment for a Steampunk rebel, as it enhances her tough image while maintaining the sleek and stunning appeal that any woman wants to feature.

Weigh in
The avoidance of 'last night before the diet' mentality didn't really happen. Honestly, it was more of an indulgence with a touch of gluttony.
We ended up having a bit of impromptu night out and ordering a take-away. I did not want to get a take-away but there were a few of us and that seemed to be the majority rule. It's really hard in those instances to pipe up. That's when healthy = boring. So we got a chinese and I ate and I ate. I also knocked back the booze and then when I came home I ate some leftovers. So pretty much, I went for it.
The next morning weighing was weighing on my mind. And for good reason. 13ston 0.25lbs. Crap. That means I've gained half a stone in about a month. Nice one. Really good job. Idiot! I'm hoping a couple of those pounds will vanish pretty quickly as I was laden with salty food but regardless of the number I just have to get the hell on with it. 3 weeks till holiday and counting.
My weekend eating was pretty good but not good enough to be honest. The food at the black tie do was insane - so good and the portions were massive. I turned down bread with the duck starter. I couldn't finish my massive chicken and veg maincourse. I picked at the summer fruits creme brulee but I did eat the two mini white chocolate cookies that came with it.
The only other downfall at the weekend was licking the hell out of the pot I made the butterscotch sauce for Nigella's butterscotch layer cake. This cake is gorgeous. Really moist and the toffee/cream cheese icing works really well with the sweetness of the cake. Yum! I had a tiny slice to test it and the rest is now in the office being eaten by my colleagues. Phew. I love baking though. It's always such a danger as I want to lick and pick and well... just eat it all. I've decided though, I am definitely going to do more. I love it too much to banish it.
It was so good being at home for the whole weekend rather than diving off to other parts of the country seeing other people. I do love being busy and being away but sometimes you just wanna potter around at home. And I did more than potter. I got washing done, a big food shop, hoovered the stairwell, looked at cookbooks, baked, meal planned, watched a film, had a long lie, changed beds. And I got to bust out my new duvet cover that I got with my Tesco points for practically nothing thank to the double rewards offer.
Tonight I'm going to the gym after work and I'm hoping I'll be able to get into a spinning class. It's doubtful as it's fully booked so I need a drop out so I can steal their slot. Regardless, I will get my sweat on one way or another. 5 day to kick it till weigh in.

Good Luck with getting back on track I hope weigh in goes okay for you. I know how hard it is when you have a big gain. I did the same and it was hard to get back on focus especially with holiday coming soon.ReplyDelete
I don't know if you've heard of this two-day a week "fasting" diet. It's been in the news a lot, with Michael Mosely trying it out for himself. The idea is that two days per week - any two - you eat only 500 calories, but the rest of the time you eat sensibly but normally. This means that the body doesn't go into starvation mode because it doesn't have time. I'm in my third week of it and am losing 2 pounds a week so far. And it's not too bad, because 500 cals isn't nothing and it's only for a day at a time, days that you can choose according to what's happening in your life. Worth trying? Though I think you look lovely anyway.ReplyDelete

The mansion, Carrick Hill, was built at Springfield by Edward and Ursula Hayward between 1937 and 1939. Edward, always known as Bill, was a director of John Martin's department store, and later managing director and chairman. He is remembered as the initiator of the Christmas Pageant in 1933 and as a philanthropist and art collector. When the suburb of Springfield was surveyed in 1936 the Haywards bought up a large area of land, and later extended it to about 100 acres (40.5ha). The house, designed by James Irwin of Woods Bagot Laybourne-Smith & Irwin in Elizabethan style and built by Fricker Brothers, is faced with Basket Range sandstone, and set in extensive landscaped grounds. It incorporates a sixteenth-century staircase, fireplace, oak panelling, windows and furniture purchased from Beau Desert Hall in Staffordshire, England by the Haywards on their honeymoon in 1934, and also houses a notable collection of European and Australian art works. Upon Sir Edward's death in 1983, Carrick Hill was bequeathed to the state of South Australia. There was talk of making it the new Government House, but it is now operated by Arts SA as a museum and art gallery.

Owen has to be hands down one of the happiest children I have ever gotten to work with. I mean just look at these photos people! I don't think I even saw a glimpse of a frown our entire shoot! This little man is a trooper, and (I think) should be a baby model! The best part - He totally knows he's a stud. Check out the second photo down, just look at that smirk. When I say "Owen smile!" it's like he's thinking "Yea right lady, I got this."
I couldn't be happier to work with the Sellers. The joy and pride that Spenser and Maris take in being this little one's parents is awesome to see. I'm beyond happy that I got to spend some time with this oh so sweet family. Check out some of my favorite shots from our afternoon together!

IComLeavWe: January 2012
Welcome back to IComLeavWe. It stands for International Comment Leaving Week, but if you say it aloud, doesn't it sounds like "I come; [but] leave [as a] we"? And that's sort of the point. Blogging is a conversation and comments should be honoured and encouraged. I like to say that comments are the new hug–a way of saying hello, giving comfort, leaving congratulations.
Here is the vital information, pure and simple (a more detailed set of rules follows below the list):
- The list opens the 1st of every month. It remains open until the 21st. You can add yourself at any point. The list is open to everyone in the blogosphere–blog writers and/or blog readers.
- Add yourself to the list by filling out this form: The list is now closed. The February list will open on 2/1/12.
- Click here to cut-and-paste this bit of code to add to your sidebar (if you have the old code from another month, remove it and replace it with this one). You need to add the icon or a link to the current list on your blog (see below) and will not be added until it's up.
- Commenting kicks off every month on the 21st. Please mark it somewhere (calendar, post-it note taped to your computer…), though I will be sending out an email reminder on the 20th. Commenting week runs from the 21st to the 28th. Every day, leave 5 comments and return 1 comment for a total of 6 comments. You are highly encouraged to choose the blogs you comment on from the participants list below, but this is not required.
- I will send a second email on the 28th to remind you to remove the icon from your blog.
- Read below if you want to find out about Iron Commenters.
- The commenting ends on the 28th. We catch our breath and the whole thing starts again the next month on the 1st. Drop in and out according to what is happening in your life between the 21st and the 28th.

Q: What if I miss a day?
A: Catch up the next day by doubling your comments–12 comments instead of 6.
Q: What if I have two blogs? Can I sign up twice, listing both blogs?
A: Yes, but you also need to double your comments. If you have two blogs listed, you should be leaving 12 comments per day.
Q: What is an Iron Commenter?
A: Not for the faint-of-heart. People who wish to be an Iron Commenter and be entered on the Iron Commenter honour roll need to leave a comment on every blog on the participants list (exceptions are blogs that require you to have a special log-in, such as some LiveJournal accounts or other similar situations). You can spread out this commenting any way you wish over the whole week, but the final comment needs to be left by midnight on the 28th (EST). Reaching Iron Commenter status is done on an honour system. Please email me if you earn Iron Commenter status so I can add you to the wall of honour.
Q: Why do I have to add that bit of code to my sidebar?
A: The code is the latest icon (the icon changes colour every month so you know that you're on the right list). This month, the icon is silvery-blue, the next month it will be green, etc. The reason is two-fold: (1) it enables more people to find out about IComLeavWe and (2) it gives you easy access to the current list once the commenting week actually begins and better ensures that you'll use it. Too many times, people sign up and forget to actually do IComLeavWe and this icon gives you a daily reminder (with the dates on it) every time you open your own blog. The icon is linked back to the current list. On the 28th, remove the icon from your blog. A new one will be created for the next month.
Q: It's the 23rd and I just saw this for the first time on my friend's blog! I want to join the list–why can't I?
A: Because IComLeavWe happens every month, once the list is closed, it's closed. If you're finding out about this on the 23rd, you can't join the current month. But leave yourself a note to check back in a week on the 1st and you can sign up for the next month.
Q: You said the list closes on the 21st. Well, it's still the 21st where I am. Why aren't you moving my information onto the list?
A: All dates and times are U.S. Eastern Standard Time (UTC/GMT -5 hours). The list closes around 11 p.m. EST on the 21st.
Q: What if no one comments on my blog and I have no comments to return?
A: Well, that really doesn't happen for the most part, but in that case, simply choose another blog and add an additional comment. The goal is to hit 6 comments daily as a minimum. Going over that is fantastic and encouraged.
Q: Mel, my question wasn't covered at all. What do I do?
A: Email me; I'm quite friendly. It helps to place "IComLeavWe" in the subject line. You could also check this post which contains the history of IComLeavWe and see if you can glean anything there.

Leaf Type: Oolong
Where to Buy: Teavivre
Tea Description:
Although Taiwan originates from Fujian, China, its flavor is quite distinct with Fujian Oolong tea. Like this Taiwan High Mountain Oolong Tea, it is recommended for beginners of Taiwan oolong. Different from the high aroma of Fujian Oolong, this tea has light floral fragrance. When sip the liquid, you can feel the sweet taste. If you want to taste new flavor, or try Taiwan Oolong, you can start with this Taiwan High Mountain Oolong Tea, by experiencing its flower scent and sweet flavor.
Learn more about this tea here.
Taster's Review:
Based on the description above, this Taiwan High Mountain Oolong Tea from Teavivre sounds like it's a "beginner" Oolong. But that doesn't mean that those of us who are more acquainted with Oolong teas can't enjoy it too! This is a lovely Oolong.
I brewed this the way I would ordinarily brew an Oolong: in my gaiwan, of course! I added 1 bamboo scoop to the bowl of the gaiwan, added water heated to 180°F and allowed the tea to "rinse" for 15 seconds. I strained off the liquid and then steeped the leaves for 45 seconds. I strained the tea into my teacup and then resteeped the leaves for 1 minute. (For each subsequent infusion, I add 15 seconds.)
My trusty gaiwan is one that I've been using for years now, it has suffered a minor 'chip' on the spout (it's one of those "easy" gaiwans and looks a lot like this one.) But the gaiwan is still quite functional and since I don't have to drink out of the gaiwan, the little chip doesn't bother me.
As I said before, this is a lovely Taiwan Oolong. It's not as creamy as some Oolong teas and certainly not as floral as many greener Oolong teas I've tasted in the past. But I like the delicate qualities of this tea.
It's sweet but it isn't a heavy or overwhelming sweetness. The tea is soft and subtle. The flavors are more delicate. And I get what Teavivre meant by saying that this is a good starter Oolong, because the floral notes of some green Oolong teas can be rather overwhelming for a palate that isn't familiar with those flowery essences. The floral notes are beautifully gentle here.
It's a mildly sweet Oolong with a nice, silky texture. The vegetal notes are subdued, the floral notes are mellow, and there is a hint of sweet melon in the background.
My second cup (infusions 3 and 4, combined) is a little creamier than the first, but it still isn't a heavy creamy note. The floral notes are slightly stronger than in the first cup, but they are not sharp. This cup is still quite smooth and sweet and pleasant.
The third cup (infusions 5 and 6, combined) is very much like the second cup. This still has a pleasant, light creamy note. The floral notes are a wee bit stronger than previous cups and I notice just a hint of sharpness. Still a remarkably smooth, light and refreshing cup of tea.
As I said at the start, this is a really lovely Oolong. It is one I'd recommend to those who are new to Oolong teas, definitely, and also to those who are familiar with Oolong teas for a refreshing change of pace. It's almost like cleansing the palate, drinking this Oolong!

The Living and the Dead
September 1, 2017
Temple Bar Gallery and Studios, Dublin, 15 April – 17 June 2017 The American street photographer Gary Winogrand said of his work: "I photograph to see what the world looks like in a photograph". I thought of Winogrand and of this quote when visiting Mark Swords's exhibition, 'The Living and the Dead', at Temple Bar Gallery and Studios (TBG + S), as it could be said that Swords paints pictures to see what his world looks like through painting. Swords uses his everyday life as his inspiration for the show. The paintings are about things that surround him, "things that are consciously or unconsciously always present". Drawing on daily observations,

Forget the backs, they'll be up for the battle with Argentina but there are significant questions about the All Black pack.
Only captain Kieran Read and Dane Coles carry regular test match authority and the onus will be on the others to combat the home side, conditions and unfamiliar surroundings.
Nepo Laulala is working strongly after a knee injury wrecked last season and Kane Hames remains a selectors' preference at loosehead prop without the same public acceptance because of his slim resume.
Luke Romano has the most test experience but does not start many matches and Scott Barrett is building well as a lock who is also capable of filling in on the blindside.
An outrageous try from Vaea Fifita masked some missing ingredients against the Boks while Matt Todd is well seasoned and consistent but a tick under top test level on the open side.
It's a patchwork quilt pack, looks alright at first glance but how does it stand up to serious scrutiny if the Pumas find some real cohesion. Getting the forwards sorted for this task on all levels will be priority for Steve Hansen and his coaching sidekicks.
Scrum, line out, ruck and maul, trust on defence, awareness around turnovers and tactical smarts will all be fed into the team data bank and the coaches' instincts during and after this test in Buenos Aires.
A win will seal the 2017 title and add to the depth of experience and trust the selectors want to build through the squad in the two years before the next World Cup.
Strong performances will bring reassurance about their ability to get on the international wavelength but glitches will narrow the concentration and open the options about the end of year tour to Europe.
Victory is the base line tomorrow and the All Black coaches have balanced that target with medical advice and their instincts about what's in the best interest of the squad. A tournament points lead affords them that selection shuffle and they'll all be judged on those alternate choices. Player depth can be a blessing and a headache but the All Blacks are using it as a poultice to bridge the excessive demands of a bloated professional calendar.

Tour Details:
Delhi Delhi is the capital city of India, which is one of the fastest growing economic nations of the world. You can visit various monuments, palaces, and political buildings here.

There's a truism in Major League Baseball that every game played is connected to every other game played going back about 150 years.
And so it is with Arlington's role as one of the few privileged cities in the world that gets to host the national game.
The groundbreaking ceremony for the newest ballpark, which took place about a week ago, is just the latest in a series of events that began in 1964.
That was the year voters approved funding the construction of the small field that eight years later would be the place, then expanded into Arlington Stadium, where the Washington Senators became the Texas Rangers.
Some of those same voters and following generations would commit to public support for the development of the ballparks for their team three more times.
A big day came in the Rangers' early days when David Clyde, an 18-year-old left- hander just out of high school with a spec tac ular fastball, filled all the Arlington Stadium seats for the first time.
By the time that humble ballpark's days were over we got to witness the amazing performances of Baseball Hall of Famer Nolan Ryan pitch his seventh no-hitter, earn his 5,000th strikeout and record his 300th victory.
But the Rangers never made it into the postseason, never hosted an All-Star Game, and had to wait for 17 years to see 2 million fans show up for a season.
By the end of the 1980s, new owners with a determination to see the Rangers join the elite ranks of baseball's greatest teams required a new ballpark. The plan was to usher in a new era and carry its host city along with them into national prominence.
After a contentious campaign, Arlington voters showed up in record numbers on January 19, 1991, and with a 30-point margin of victory approved the construction of The Ballpark in Arlington.
A short three years later, some 50,000 fans celebrated a spectacular Opening Day in 1994 with pomp and ceremony fit to match anything like it in the history of the game.
The following year Arlington hosted the Major League All-Star Game in front of television cameras and media representatives from all over the world.
During the following four years the Rangers would win three division championships. Counting those who filled the ballpark during those playoff games, attendance reached and exceeded 3 million fans.
Then in 2010 the ultimate goal of capturing the American League Pennant and going to the World Series for the first time in franchise history was achieved.
After repeating that feat the following year, only one team in the league enjoyed bigger crowds than the ones that showed up in Arlington for the next two seasons.
Now the team, a perennial contender, has played in the postseason eight times and recorded attendance ranking the Rangers among the league's top five for 15 seasons since the ballpark's debut in 1994.
We've witnessed some of baseball's most cherished moments and rare feats of skill in the hardest of all sports to master.
Just this year alone we watched Adrian Beltre hit a baseball safely for the 3,000th time – there have been about 19,000 players in the game's history but only 30 others of them have done that.
Pudge Rodriguez joined Nolan Ryan in the Hall of Fame and Kenny Rogers gained immor t ality as one of only eight left handers to ever pitch a perfect game.
Both were on hand to perform the ceremonial first pitch at the groundbreaking for Globe Life Field as construction began on the place where the Rangers will celebrate their 50th season in Arlington and then add decades more in years to follow.
Arlington, Texas — Baseball Town.
Richard Greene is a former Arlington mayor and served as an appointee of President George W. Bush as regional administrator for the Environmental Protection Agency.

Monthly open workshops at Barefoot Studio
... at Barefoot Studio in Brockley London, I am going to offer one MONDAY evening a month to open singing workshops. It is a huge benefit to get up and sing for others, enabling singers to confirm and strengthen and clarify technical and performance goals – and it is great to share the process!
This is the format I am currently proposing, and after the first six months I will elicit feedback and comments in order to expand or improve the model:
Studio open from 6:00 pm.
6:15 to 6:45 pm: group Barefoot Body Voice and Movement class bringing special attention to a different physical/vocal concern each month 6:30 -9:30pm: individual songs and arias: a pianist will be available and I will facilitate, in a pressure-free environment that essentially allows singers to try out new repertoire, try out an audition aria, and simply sing for others rather than alone in the practice room. Each singer will have approximately 20 minutes, giving us a little time to look at some key phrases and challenges, and share problem solving with the group.
These are the dates:
Monday Jan 14
Monday Feb 19
Monday March 12
Monday April 9
Monday May 14
Monday June 18
Cost: £35 a session, or £30 if you sign up and pre-pay for 3 or more
Book in the 'Buy Tickets' page of the website.
Booking confirms your place, and cancellation must be a full week in advance of a class for refunds

Squeaky toys, puzzles, tugs, flyers, balls, plush, interactive and more, the varieties of toys are endless.
Small plastic bottles, like these for sodas and water, make nice rabbit toys. Empty them, put the caps again on, and then give them to your rabbit. Particularly on a linoleum flooring, pushing round a plastic bottle is a number of fun in your furry good friend. This is not advisable in case your rabbit is an enormous chewer though, and don't allow them to have the bottles if they begin chewing on the plastic.
Rabbits, together with dwarf bunnies, raise lots of new questions for pet owners who've by no means had a rabbit earlier than. The perfect thing you can do before you buy a pet rabbit is to analysis and examine them. I'll recommend a guide after which I will go through some questions that might come up for a brand … Read More

St Thomas 4H Apiculture Club reaches out to Font Hill Community
The executive body of the St Thomas 4H Apiculture Club recently made several residents of the Font Hill community very happy with small donations of food stuff, toiletries and personal items to assist them in the new year.
The club, which operates a small farm in the Font Hill area, felt the need to make a contribution, after witnessing the desperate plight of many residents in the distant rural village. The club was formed in May of 2014, and came out of agriculture and apiculture training organised by the 4H Association of St Thomas with funding from the Sugar Transformation Unit (STU).
Kevin Watson, club president, explained that several graduates of the training programme came together and were given permission to begin a communal farm on a plot of land owned by the 4H Association. The Jamaica Agricultural Society in St Thomas also contributed tools, seeds and other farming equipment, and the group started with sorrel, melon, cucumber and pumpkin, which they also market through the JAS. The profits from sales are distributed among members along with unsold produce, and though the yield is small, the club has not hesitated in sharing their bounty with Font Hill residents.
Members of the club helped to identify needy individuals, including several residents with disabilities, elderly residents and those without family support. Data was also collected from a disability survey conducted in October. The club focused its attention on those most in need, and was disappointed that they could not reach all the persons that had been identified.
"There is a great need in this area," Kerry-Ann Smith, the club's chief planner, explained. "This is a very isolated area and there are a lot of persons who don't have jobs. And they have no one to help them."
valuable lesson
Sponsorship was sought from businesses in and around Morant Bay, and several responded with cash and kind. Watson expressed the club's gratitude for the assistance they had received.
"We want to thank those who gave to this project. It is very important that we do this. But we also want to thank those who didn't give, because we have learnt a valuable lesson, and it is through these experiences that we will grow," he told Rural Xpress.
The club plans to make the outreach an annual one, targeting other rural communities with similar needs in St Thomas.
"We were affected by the drought, but we have made preparations for continuous irrigation, and whatever we reap, we will definitely put aside a portion for helping those who are less fortunate than us," Watson said.
