Skin care tip:
#1 Keep it clean.
Men have approximately 15% oilier skin and significantly larger pores than women do. Basically, this means you get dirtier. It is very important; no matter what skin type you have, to clean your face every day. Deep cleansing is important. It keeps pores clear and your skin healthy and looking good.
Cleansing products should be as chemical-free as possible. Deodorant soaps shouldn't be used on your face. They cleanse with harsh ingredients and leave a detergent film behind. This may irritate your skin and will clog your pores. Go natural.
A good scrub is essential for healthy clean skin. It will remove dead cells and smooth the surface of your face. The scrub should be strong without being damaging. Stay away from scrubs that contain rough elements like ground bits of nut or seed extracts. They will tear and damage the skin. A good scrub will invigorate you, not hurt you.
Moisturizing is a necessity. Again, the product with the least amount of chemical additives is the best. Always use a light moisturizer on your face after cleansing and shaving and don't forget your neck!
For an intensive moisturizing treatment, use something with vitamin E or aloe vera. This is especially wonderful for an under eye treatment. Remember it is very important to moisturize this sensitive area - it is one of the first places to show age because the skin under your eye secretes no necessary oils on its own.
Anti Aging tip:
Importance of Exercise
The ultimate human growth hormone therapy includes exercise. The greatest anti aging health tip for anyone is to get regular exercise, even as simple as a daily 10 minute walk., This helps to promote the body's natural hormonal function. Human growth hormone injections and anti-aging hormone supplements will change your metabolism, but body fat will continue to leach the precious human growth hormone from your system unless exercise is combined with your anti-aging treatments.
Plastic surgery tip:
Lots of people have skin tags. A constant question we get is how to get rid of them. By far, the best treatment is surgical removal. Usually only a topical anesthetic is used, no sutures are required and no scars are seen. It takes about 5 minutes to remove 20 skin tags. The procedure is usually covered by insurance.
All of those other options doctors mention are just that - other options that are not the first line of treatment. There is no real literature I can find on some of the herbal therapies some web sites recommend. I would be careful with these other approaches.

Using For First Time,
By Ron May 2, 2017
For under a buck, this is a nice big brush. Only one problem from time to time hair falls out. To help prevent this I have been soaking mine in a brush replenishment solution. The hair seems to stay put. This is a very soft big sturdy looking brush.

Okay For Light Work And Dry Brushing
By bobbystrash28442 July 5, 2017
While not the best of paintbrush lines out there for modeling, the Atlas line is okay for jobs that will wear down your brushes fairly quick, or general (non precision) painting, thus making your more expensive brushes last longer (saving on wear and tear). I bought the Atlas No. 51 large camel hair brush for dry brushing and applying dust effects with pigments. For those tasks, an Atlas brush is more than sufficient for what I paid for it.

Good Health, Motivation & Success
I was a late starter as far as understanding that I needed to look after my body if I wanted to continue living a healthy life. I was lucky enough to feel so bad that I actually took the steps to get myself in shape physically and mentally. The Health & Lifestyle section is about what I have learned and what I practice. You can have a laugh at it or maybe get some good advice from it but the choice is yours.
The usual disclaimers apply. I am not a doctor or a chemist or a health & fitness expert. What I practice may not be suitable for you, but these are things I have picked up over the years and Im still here to prove it.
- Category: Diatomaceous Earth
For those people who ask me about where to get Diatomaceous Earth. Here is the link for the product that I buy direct from Amazon UK but delivery actually costs more than the product.
Most people tend to think it is only good for Hair, Nails and Skin but it has a myriad of benefits including digestive and bowel. It really is superdooper.
I just take a spoonful in a glass of water in the morning.
It is called Food/Pet grade because humans and pets can ingest it, but there is another version used on farms as an insecticide which you need to avoid as it will probably kill you LOL!
I now sell 100g and 350g jars Buy Here
or Diatomaceous Earth 1kg (Amazon.co.uk)
- Category: Diatomaceous Earth
Firstly, Diatomaceous Earth (DE) is not earth!
DE is made from the fossilised remains of tiny, aquatic organisms called diatoms. Their remains are made of a natural substance called silica. Over a long period of time, diatoms accumulated in the sediment of rivers, streams, lakes, and oceans. Today, silica deposits are mined from these areas.
DE contains about 85% silica which is essential for our bodies. This important, trace mineral is required by tendons, cartilage, blood vessels, and bones. The nutrient even contributes to almost every vital organ, including the heart, liver, and lungs.
Diatomaceous Earth under a microsocope
- Category: Diatomaceous Earth
I would say that Diatomaceous Earth has a dual purpose, certainly for me in any case.
When first ingested, a small amount of Diatomaceous Earth gets absorbed into the blood stream as silica. Silica plays an important role in many body functions and has a direct relationship to mineral absorption. It is generally reported that this is good for your Hair, Nails, Skin and Bones.
At molecular level they say that DE has a negative charge which pulls in toxins as it moves through your digestive system to be eliminated from the bowels.
How do I take it?
In a 250ml glass I add up to a tablespoon of DE.
Some people suggest to take from 1 teaspoon up to a tablespoon. I am comfortable with the tablespoon but if you get a bloated feeling its probably best to reduce the amount.
I always drink it first thing in the morning with my vitamin routine and tend not to eat anything for breakfast as I'm not hungry. I do take other things, like a glass of Turmeric and an Apple & Ginger shot, so I guess with all that liquid that's why I'm not hungry. I'll follow up a bit later with a mug of tea or coffee or maybe go out for a small coffee in a local bar, but I'm not usually hungry until later in the afternoon.
It's a kind of chalky texture but it doesn't have any flavour. I just gulp it down.
Its worth pointing out at this stage that its a good idea to drink plenty of liquid during the day which will compensate for the drying nature of the DE but also helps in general.
I have been taking it for about 4 years and honestly feel that it works fantastically for me, not just with hair and skin etc, but more internally.
I have read many favourable testimonials over the years from people with IBS, Crohns Disease, Diverticulitis, Eczema and other Skin and Joint problems. But, don't take my word for you, please do your research.

Joint Pain Relief with Diatomaceous Earth
It has been discovered that Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth (DE) is a natural arthritis treatment. The healing effect that DE has on arthritis is due to the silica that naturally occurs in Diatomaceous Earth. Silica exists in all living things and has a major influence on health, strength and survival.
The silica in Diatomaceous Earth can help treat arthritis naturally by reducing inflammation in the joints, increasing the production of collagen to lubricate joints, and rejuvenating the elasticity of tissues to restore the natural flexibility in the joints.
Collagen, which is mostly made up of silica, is the glue that holds us together. Connective tissues consist of collagen, elastin, mucopolysaccharieds and mucous carbohydrates which aid in moisture retention. All these valuable molecules house large quantities of silica. Also, many people with advanced arthritis suffer from bone deformation when tendons and ligaments in the joints lose flexibility due to loss of collagen. Tendons and ligaments need silica for health and flexibility.
In 2015 I franctured my tibia and had a full leg plaster from thigh to toe. When I left hospital they gave me all sorts of medication. I used none of it. Instead I opted for a glass each of Diatomaceous Earth and Turmeric first thing in the morning. (after leaving the hospital I took no medication whatsoever)
- 1 Glass DE (tablespoon in 250ml water)
- 1 Glass Turmeric (tablespoon in 250ml water)
The DE helped to heal the bone and the Turmeric helped to control Pain and Blood Clotting.
I had my plaster removed in 2 weeks and the doctors were amazed how quick everything healed.
So, use Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth to naturally relieve joint pain and restore collagen and avoid the very expensive Collagen supplements currently on the market.

Diatomaceous Earth Product Testimonials
I have used your DE for my dogs for years. I rub it down on their skin and NO FLEAS. Your company has great products.
These are testimonials from people describing their health improvements in taking food grade Diatomaceous Earth (DE)with fresh water. If what they're telling us is true, it's absolutely amazing what DE can do for your health.
Much has been reported about DE and its health benefits via testimonials and university studies. The good news is spreading, and let's all keep it going that way! People need to know about DE. We live in a toxic world these days, chemicals in the ground, in the air and in the food we consume. And our bodies are paying the ultimate price for it.
"I had never heard of Diatomaceous Earth until I read an article on our local area paper, The Rocket, about its use for pest control and being totally nontoxic. It sparked my interest, so I got on the internet, and there I was for 5 days!! I could hardly believe what I was reading. I was skeptical at first, but decided to give it a try and ordered 50 lbs. of it. We started taking one heaping tablespoon a day June 23, 2008.
I had been in great pain from lower back (I blew out the bottom 4 vertebrate in 2002) for about 3 weeks prior, and right knee had been trying to lock up on me, also causing great pain. On the THIRD day, I realized when I raised up off the ground that I was completely pain free, both back and knee!! And have not had any pain from either since! About a week later, I realized that my skin, which has looked like a dried up river bed for the past 15 years or so, was soft and actually shiny!
I drug my finger nails up my arm, and lo and behold----NO CHALK LINES!! AND, I FEEL GREAT!
I decided that people needed to know about DE, so I set out to find 24 people who were willing to listen for a while about it, and if they decide they want to try it, I supply them for three months, and at the end of the 3 months they pay me for the DE with a written testimonial of their DE experience, good or bad. My first "DE Buddy" was my mail lady. As we visited about it, she told me her father had just been diagnosed with prostate cancer 2 or 3 weeks prior. In my research, I found that cancer cannot survive in a body sufficient in silica, and the 1939 Nobel Prize winner proved, scientifically, that life on this earth could not/would not exist, if not for silica. So, she convinced her father to try it, taking 1 heaping tablespoon, twice a day (AM and PM). He'd been taking DE about 12 days when he had the next blood test done for cancer cell count, but there was no change. On the next blood test just this last week, his count went from 8 down to 4!! And he's only been taking it for about two months!! This is, of course, the kind of news that makes the tears roll! The joy in her face and heart was just plain overwhelming. And do you know what it costs me to supply him daily with 2 heaping tablespoons? About $.032!! What would the bill have been, both in the check book and the body, if he'd gone ahead with chemo? An un-Godly amount!! And, she has lost 7 pounds, and has not changed her diet!"
"I am Charlene Rowley, I am 60 years old and feeling great. I have been taking Diatomaceous Earth for almost three years. I started when I got arthritis in my right hand so bad my thumb went stiff and the pain went into my palm, fingers and started up my arm. My son gave me the Diatomaceous Earth to take he had heard it would take away arthritis and the pain. I didn't know what else to do. I knew my doctor would put me on painkillers and I don't like medication as a lifetime solution. So I started taking the Diatomaceous Earth. It gave me energy like I had not known for a long time. Within about two days the pain was gone and eight weeks later my thumb was back to normal use and has been ever since. I feel now if I would have known when I started what great results I would have gotten I would have taken two or three tablespoons a day, instead I only took one. My hand would have been useable much sooner than eight weeks.
While I was so worried about my stiff thumb I did not realize that it had taken away the inflammation in my stomach known as gastritis which my doctor told me I would have for the rest of my life if I didn't stop eating certain foods such as tomatoes, grapes, all citrus fruits, cabbage and all the foods in the cabbage family. Gastritis can be painful if you aren't careful how you eat. Oh, no fatty foods. I had many attacks. The first one because I didn't know what I had was very painful, the doctor almost put me in the hospital. Luckily for me the painkillers took away the pain. I got on his diet for me, but if I didn't watch carefully I did have some painful attacks. But miracles of miracles Diatomaceous Earth took away the inflammation for more than two years I have taken it. I can eat any of the above foods without any of the symptoms of gastritis. I had a painful pain in the left side of my (no other word but) buttocks for years if I overworked I was put right down in bed for a day because it hurt to walk. Everyone said I probably had a pinched nerve. I went to a chiropractor, he worked on it and I felt good but he said I would have to come back for more treatments. I never got back and the pain went on until I started taking the Diatomaceous Earth. I was so busy worrying about my thumb that it took my husband to discover after a hard working Cub Scout event we were involved in to notice I didn't mention the pain after cleaning up I was ready to go out to dinner. He was surprised. I am usually down on the bed in pain and can't move for the rest of the night. When he brought it to my attention I too was surprised. After that when I work hard I may only have tinge of pain, if that, it is wonderful.
My husband 64 has heart disease with high blood pressure, he takes high blood pressure pills which only made it fluctuate, never took it down. He started taking it, now when he tests his blood pressure it is down and stable. We are hoping when he goes in for his six-month check-up that he will take him off those pills. Also that they will find his bad cholesterol down which it too was soaring high after an operation a year ago in May. His energy has soared; he said he feels like a twenty year old. He used to be so sluggish when he worked. We eat well; we drink filtered water (spring water). This is a good food supplement. The best.
P.S. Don't ever stop selling this wonderful food source. It's like the 'fountain of youth'."
"For years I've had chronic fungus between the toes. I tried many things internally and externally until in desperation I powdered my feet with Diatomaceous Earth. The condition went away and hasnt come back. Isnt that wild? Someone else might like to try this and see if it works for them. I'm very interested." M.S., Canada
"Since taking fossil shell flour my night sweats have disappeared and I've noticed how much more energy I have, it's really amazing! I started adding 1 tsp in a glass of water, just enough water for a couple of swallows. I didn't know what to expect as to taste and found out it really has no taste, if anything a bit chalky. The most incredible change from taking fossil shell flour is my night sweats have disappeared!!! I couldn't figure out why I wasn't waking up in the middle of the night sweating and then I thought maybe it was the fossil shell flour? So I decided to stop taking it and sure enough they came back! It is sooo nice not waking up sweating in the middle of then night, I love this stuff! I would say after about 2 weeks I noticed I had so much more energy. Usually at the end of the day my energy level would drop, but since taking the fossil shell flour the energy I have is making me feel so much more alive. It's so nice to feel this energy, it's like I've been rejuvenated. I now take 1 heaping tsp in the morning and one before bed, if I miss taking it I definitely know I have very soon, it's that dramatic of a change for me..." G.M., USA
"Threatened with new lumps and bumps this past summer, always leery of fresh symptoms due to my on-going challenge of lymphoma, I decided to do a bit of experimentation with my own health with this innocuous substance. I took a tablespoon of DE with liquid (juice, smoothies, or water) about three times a week, and to my amazement the chickpea-sized lump that had arisen on top of my head completely disappeared. The silver dollar-sized lump on the side of my neck vanished. And whatever was impeding passage of colon contents was dramatically cleared. With or without research, moderate use of the FDA-approved anti-caking, food-grade substance proved to be a vital piece of my health puzzle." G.K., Albuquerque, NM
"My body became very toxic with the heavy metal, nickel. I had sores break out on my skin. I became very exhausted all the time. I started taking Diatomaceous Earth, fossil shell flour, in an effort to remove the toxic metals. I have since been tested and I have no sign of toxic nickel, plus my sores went away." C.B., Michigan
"I had cancer and a friend told me about a wonderful product called Food Grade Fossil Shell Flour Diatomaceous Earth. I started taking this product. Within a short time my cancer tumors began going away. I am now totally free of cancer and I feel great." T.S., USA
"I was diagnosed with liver cancer in July of 1994. After eight months of chemo poison, I decided to do things God's way and learn to heal myself with the Genesis 1:29 diet. It put me in remission until I painted a house I was renting and had to have it sprayed for termites. After that I came down with a 4cm. Tumor in my upper right femur. I was told about food grade fossil shell flour diatomaceous earth and I took three tablespoons every night and noticed I became pain-free. Than I ran out of it and noticed my pain came back. Two times I started taking fossil shell flour DE and ran out only to notice that once again my pain returned. Then I realized it was the fossil shell flour DE that was keeping me pain-free. I don't know how it works, I only know that it does. I still take three tablespoons at bedtime. I am on an 80/20 diet and drink lots of water, take herbs and stay close to God. Everything I do is alternative. I sure am glad God led me to DE." C.G., Pagosa Springs, CO
"I am writing this in hopes that someone will read this and be helped like I am. I tried diatomaceous earth, using about 3 heaping tablespoons in a cup of water, to appease my husband. He said it would be good for my hair. It doesn't taste bad, it actually is good. However a week later we were driving to the store; I looked down and noticed I had nails. I have bitten my nails since I can remember. I went out and bought polish. I could not believe how fast they were growing and the urge to bite them was no longer there. My hair was also thinning in front and it is now filled in. When my 25-year old sister was pregnant, she craved chalk. Her husband would actually go to the store and buy her chalk to eat. I gave her some of the diatomaceous earth and she loved it. She quit eating chalk and took the diatomaceous earth every day."

Wisconsin GOP shows off its "diversity"
By Zach W On June 19, 2013 · 4 Comments · In Idiocy/Lunacy, Sarcasm, Those Kooky Conservatives!, Video
Take a look at the tremendously "diverse" Republican Party of Wisconsin:
The Wisconsin Republican Party is attempting to re-brand itself as a more inclusive entity. They are co-opting traditional Democratic strategies like opening a whole bunch of campaign offices in Wisconsin, voter registration efforts and block captain organizing – we know this from the giant banner on the state website which asks viewers to "BECOME A COMMUNITY CAPTAIN!" sounding suspiciously like the conservative pejorative – community organizer.
The banner has a full color photograph of supposedly other "community captains" who are stunningly handsome. Young, old, white, black, brown and even Asian, all inviting you to join them in the new Republican Party.
The chick/dude in the upper right-hand corner might even be gay. As a liberal, the Siren can honestly say we don't know this many diverse good-looking people. It's really impressive.
It's also really fake.
The banner photo is a iStockphoto available for purchase online. Those smiling, multi-cultural people aren't from Wisconsin and they probably aren't Republicans either.
If you'd like a more representative look at the how "diverse" the Republican Party of Wisconsin is, here's a video:
Yep, the Wisconsin Republican Party sure is a diverse bunch.

Cat Kin says:
The GOP always co-opts Democratic strategies: You impeach our president; we will always find A reason to impeach yours. You support public education; we reinvent education with vouchers and charter schools. You want medicare and social security for the poor; we launch fund raising programs for MDS amd cancer. And on and on. "Attack, attack, attack, attack."
T. says:
I actually heard a bunch of old racist white men complaining about this, until I pointed out it was an iStockphoto.
They still complained because they didn't want no 'wetbacks' attracted to their party.
T. says:
Basically what I'm trying to say is this: even if they do hypothetically do become 'open minded and diverse'? The fact is, the Republican Party has race baited for years, and has attracted these types of people to their ideology. This isn't saying there isn't racist Democrats, but the fact is Republicans have went on national television and have done this nonsense on a repeated basis and allow their most extreme to speak.
Because it's the only thing they have left as a Party along with their religious fundamentalism since their economic policies don't work and never have worked.

I didn't listen to the video, just watched. The female is hyper flashed twice then a pause flash.

Cosmic ray moderation of the thermal instability
School of Physics and Astronomy, University of Leeds, Leeds LS2 9JT, UK e-mail: email@example.com
2 Department of Applied Mathematics, University of Leeds, Leeds LS2 9JT, UK
Accepted: 6 November 2004
We apply the Hermite-Bieler theorem in the analysis of the effect of cosmic rays on the thermal stability of an initially uniform, static background. The cosmic rays were treated in a fluid approximation and the diffusion coefficient was assumed to be constant in time and space. The inclusion of cosmic rays does not alter the criterion for the thermal stability of a medium subjected to isobaric perturbations. It does alter the criteria for the stability of a medium perturbed by small amplitude sound waves. In the limit of a high background cosmic ray pressure to thermal pressure ratio, the instability in response to high frequency sound waves is suppressed.
Key words: ISM: kinematics and dynamics / ISM: cosmic rays / hydrodynamics / instabilities

Knocked Out Loaded (1986)
Empire Burlesque was certainly no winner, but it had its moments; Knocked Out Loaded is Dylan at his absolute worst. Several of the originals are co-written, which isn't necessarily bad, but two of the three aren't winners. Dylan doesn't do much better writing for himself, but it is telling when the second best song on this album is a Kristofferson cover recorded with a children's choir. Kristofferson is great, but the children's choir on "They Killed Him," a song about Ghandi, MLK and Christ, is a bit much. Luckily, it is a short album. It is a mangled affair, pieced together from a variety of sessions with no coherence in who plays on what. It isn't really produced at all, just cobbled.
Best song: Brownsville Girl – Dylan wrote this with playwright Sam Shepard. It is really a rewrite of "New Danville Girl," an outtake from Empire Burlesque, and although everything else on Knocked Out Loaded is an utter waste, this song is brilliant. It is definitely among Dylan's best songs of the 80s, and probably among the best of his whole career. Being a nearly 12-minute song, it has a lot of lines in it, and it probably has as high of a great line to crappy line ratio as anything in the Dylan catalog, including "It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)."
Worst song: Driftin' Too Far from Shore – The background singers can't even syncopate to be on the same beat as Dylan. He may have been messing them up intentionally because he knew this song was a lost cause. One of many songs recorded for but left off Empire Burlesque, several overdubs were added to this and none of them helped it.

A blog about lovely Waterlooville, a small, environmentally damaged town in Hampshire, UK. Waterlooville was founded after the Battle of Waterloo in 1815, as troops from that conflict returned home and passed through Hampshire. Having grown from a small village to a suburban sprawl, Waterlooville faces serious environmental challenges today and in the future.

Nokia 3310
These things are like gold dust, I had to check in on Argos every week for about two months before I found that they had a few that could be reserved.
First problem I had was that my old SIM card didn't work because it was to big. Then I had to get a 2G SIM card which basically excludes Three.
So I went with O2, pay as you go.
Having got it working, I am very pleased.
I don't have a smart phone, and the 3310 has 'near' smartphone features without actually being a smartphone.
Ignore the negative comments in the media, this 'basic' phone does much more than most basic phones. You can download games and Facebook or Twitter apps. You can also do basic browsing of the internet.
The sound quality for the radio and MP3 playback is very good and is easy to pair up Bluetooth headphones. Basically I love it, its the non-smartphone I have wanted for years but no one produced it.
Thumbs up here!

Activities :
The Bayeux-Calvados Award for war correspondents offers a specific program to students all over the country
Ever since 1996, a specific schedule, aimed towards students, has been set in place thanks to a partnerhsip between the Calvados Departement, the Region of Normandy, the Ministry of Education and the CLEMI. In between activities within the schools, different highlights ponctuate the week of theBayeux-Calvados Award.
A Refugee Food Festival in Calvados' Middle Schools
From Monday October 2nd to Friday October 6th
Refugee Food Festival
Middle school canteens open their kitchen's doors to refugee chefs
From October 2nd to October 6th, France's Calvados Department and UNHCR, the United Nations Refugee Agency, in partnership with the French NGO, Food Sweet Food, invite students of different middle schools in Calvados to participate in the Refugee Food Festival.
The idea is to raise students' awareness of refugees' situation in France and across the world. The Refugee Food Festival has three objectives: changing perceptions of refugees, accelerating their professional integration and discovering cuisines from elsewhere.
Five days, five middle schools
The following schools will welcome the Refugee Food Festival in France's Normandy region:
Monday October 2nd: Charles Létot middle school in the town of Bayeux
Tuesday October 3rd: Jean de la Varende middle school in the town of Creully
Wednesday October 4th (only in the morning): Hastings middle school in the city of Caen
Thursday October 5th: Ernest Hemingway middle school in the town of Port-en-Bessin
Friday October 6th: Louis Pergaud middle school in the town of Dozulé
Each day, middle school students will learn about refugees' stories and traditional food from their country, with three highlights:
In the morning, students will meet with refugees and the UNHCR team. They will discuss the situation of refugees in France and across the world thanks to refugees' testimonies, Q&A and educational games. A refugee chef, along with school canteens' cooks, will prepare a traditional meal from his or her country.
At lunch time, half-board students will taste the dishes the refugee chef cooked with the school canteen's team.
In the afternoon, students will participate in cooking workshops during which refugee chefs will prepare snacks. This will be a friendly moment conducive to discussions.
Gaze into the mind of 15 year olds: national measures dedicated to secondary school students
Among a collection of photographs carefully chosen by the AFP (Agence France-Presse), each depicting currents affairs over the last 12 months, students vote/are voting for the picture that comes closer to representing our world today. This activity takes place within the schools, at the beginning of the school year. Thanks to an online platform created by Nikon, secondary school students from all over the country can vote online, giving to this project a true perspective !

The Regional Award for high school students and trainees of Normandy
On Monday October 3 rd 2016, first day of the Bayeux-Calvados Award for War Correpondents, high school students all over Normandy view the official report selection for the category television. Together, they watch 10 short films, lasting from 1.30 to 6 minutes. Each report talks about a situation of conflict -and its consequences on the civilian population- or the fight for liberty and democracy. Following the screening, each student vote for the report of his/her choosing. This is the perfect occasion for students, trainees and professors all over Normandy to take an interest on current affairs in the presence of international war correspondents who come specifically to meet and discuss with them.
Citizen of the World
In the framework of the territorial unification and thanks to the Region, the Regional Award for high school students and trainees of Normandy is expending its scope and from now on, encompasses the entire norman territory.
A few hours after the poll, the CLEMI encourages the students to put their feeling/thoughts into words- like real journalists do and together, they create the newspaper Citizen of the World. This activity aims to stimulate their thoughts on the reports broadcasted in order for them to better understand and express their point of view in the form of articles, poems or drawings. Later on, Citizen of the World is given to the guests and the public during the official Award Ceremony on Saturday October 7th as well as all the participating schools.
The Bayeux-Calvados Award Classes : total immersion
4 schools from Normandy are invited to bring one of their classes –chosen on the base of merit- to live the Bayeux-Calvados Award for War Correspondents from within. This year, a class from Manitoba, Canada will also join this experience. During 3 days, the students, in total immersion, attend the different conferences held by international war reporters, view exhibitions and participate in the official closing ceremony. At the initiative of the Region of Normandy and the CLEMI since 2008, theses classes enable the students to experience the Bayeux-Calvados Award in a totally different way.
The Dysturb group – grounds for thoughts
Created by Pierre Terdjam, Dysturb is a group of photojournalists who choose to use urban landscape to bring strong stories to light, stories that often end up being neglected by the medias. During the Bayeux-Calvados Award for War Correspondents, the group intervenes in different schools. The idea is to attach a large-framed photograph on a wall with the students, in order to exchange and react with them on the world's news. As a result, they create an educational and informative experience that provides a special place for exchanging ideas, sharing and cultural enrichment.
Each year, numerous schools all over the Region partake in the Bayeux-Calvados Award for War Correspondents by the means of different measures but also by receiving, within their walls, reporters who come to join and exchange with the young generation. More and more schools all over the country organize, of their own initiative, visits to Bayeux in order to experience the various activities and exhibitions.
The Bayeux-Calvados Award for War Correspondents is ground for thoughts and remain as such, an unparalleled educational tool.

This week's weather has been perfect summer weather – not too hot, not too cold or wet, & not too humid! What more can one ask for?
Now onto this week's photos:
July 23 – Dunes beach from a distance; as seen from the shores of West Lake on a hazy afternoon!
July 24 – happy bee; buzzing all around the local hollyhocks
July 25 – overcast day & high water; a trip to Sandbanks Park…
July 26 – lakeside; roadside stop at West Lake…grass & a weathered fence post.
July 27 – sunflowers; summer's happiest flower!
July 28 – hollyhocks & the blueberry patch. Waupoos is famous for the roadside full of blooming hollyhocks…and of course the blueberry patch. Pick your own or buy them already picked! (The blue netting protects the berries from all the hungry birds & other wildlife that would love a special treat!)
July 29 – perfect start to the weekend; early morning coffee on the back deck with this fabulous view!
As always, I thank you for visiting. Feel free to join in on Instagram, #ciuan365 or #nothingisordinary or you can just follow me @BasildonKitchens.

Get WiMax Training
June 07, 2007
The WiMax Forum creates a certified training program.
At future WiMax events, attendees will have an option of getting certified training on the technology. The WiMax Forum industry consortium worked with California-based DoceoTech and London-based Informa Telecoms & Media to create the WiMax Forum Certified Training Program, a suite of coursework for both technical and business types.
WiMax, of course, is the very hyped wireless broadband technology just now seeing real-world implementation. Infonetics Research in the U.K. says the market for WiMax equipment will grow 70% a year through 2010.
The first certification will be the WiMax Forum RF Network Engineer (WFRE) Certification Boot Camp, a four-day course for those with some minor RF background to expand their skills for installing WiMax. It has 10 modules, covering design options, RF fundamentals, antennas, RF considerations, how to perform a link budget, path loss modeling, frequency reuse in both fixed and mobile WiMax, performance and coverage considerations, planning with modeling tools, and capacity design. Its meant to be half tutorial and half hands-on. It will cost $2,995 to take in the U.S., and $3,495 in Europe or Asia. The first course is running right now in Leeds, U.K.; the next is in Washington D.C. starting June 12. Future course locations through December this year are listed online.
A second course for those already working in wireless broadband is called WiMax and 802.16e: Broadband Wireless Standards. It lasts two days, and concentrates on both 802.16-2004 (fixed WiMax) and 802.16e-2005 (mobile WiMax) standards, providing the fundamentals as well as nitty-gritty on the MAC and PHY layers, frequency reuse, and more. It will cost $1,395 domestically and $1,635 in Europe and Asia, and will be offered first in Washington on June 12, then in Madrid. Check the online schedule.
The WiMax Explained course is also two days long, with an over-arching look at WiMax, both technical and non. DoceoTech has not yet posted pricing or schedules for this course.
In the end, there will be four professional certification tracks: the aforementioned WFRE, plus WiMax Forum Core Network Engineer, WiMax Forum Network Associate, and WiMax Forum Security Professional.
DoceoTech is the knowledge-transfer services provider -- that probably translates to trainer -- that designed the courses. The company also does a lot of training for Wi-Fi mesh implementers, and is a member of the WiMax Forum. Informa also does its own training and development programs.

On the Night Riviera train from London Paddington...
After working at RideLondon 2016 and with a holiday down in Cornwall with Jilly, her Mum (Pauline) and her brother (Chris) planned for the following week,
an opportunity arose to finally go on the night train to Penzance from London Paddington and cycle around a completely new place - St Mary's on the Scilly
Pauline joined me on the GWR 'Night Riviera' train from London Paddington along with her new 'Swifty Scooter'. We decided to stay in the standard seated
section rather than one of the sleeping cars. It was fairly comfortable and for only £35 represented great value and meant that I could connect to the Scilly
Islands ferry with a simple Monday morning change of train in Plymouth.
On board the Scillonian III...
I am never normally nervous about travelling, however after reading some online reviews of the ferry crossing between Penzance and the Scilly Islands, I
was quite worried. The weather forecast had changed from being a nice day to windy, rainy and fairly stormy. Not ideal conditions for a ferry that has been
given the nickname 'the stomach pump'.
The 1977 built ferry itself looks old fashioned in comparison to the modern car ferries on other routes such as Dover to Calais that I have been on, yet is
modern inside and has amble facilities for the 2h 45m crossing. The Scillonian III is also unique in that its flat bottomed hull means it can sail in all tidal
conditions and acts as a lifeline for the Scilly Islands. The merging of the Atlantic Ocean, English Channel and a prevailing south westerly wind hits the ship
from all sides and can make for a rough crossing. Today was no exception...
Out at sea...
After handing in a token to board that resembles a gambling chip (subliminal message about sea conditions?), the moment the Scillonian III departed
Penzance Harbour to complete the 42 mile journey to St Mary's, the rain started to fall, the wind picked up and the ship started to roll. However, the speed
of the vessel was impressive and you could hear the roar of the engines as we ploughed our way out to sea.
I sat out on the top deck until the rain became unbearable and headed to the bottom deck. This area is at the waterline and is the most stable part of the
boat. The rocking at this level was pleasurable, despite some people changing colour upstairs!
Arriving into St Mary's Harbour...
I had pre-planned my bike rental with a very helpful local company
Book a Bike On Scilly
and they had told me to collect the excellent Ghost mountain bike
close to the ferry terminal. It is probably the only time I have ever picked up a hire bike unlocked! It is somewhat surprising then that one of the Scilly Islands'
most famous exports recently has been a memoir about the life of a local Policeman!
Sadly, the weather on the day meant that my dream of seeing Caribbean white sands and exploring the 'Seychelles of Britain' whilst riding along tranquil,
quiet roads was washed out by torrential rain and at times, it felt that the whole Atlantic Ocean was raining down over the archipelago. I completed a 9 mile
lap of the island and visited the Old Town, Hugh Town, the Garrison, the tiny football ground to mark a unique 'groundhop', the informative Isle of Scilly
Museum and the small airport. However, I was so wet and cold that the fun factor was certainly missing from the day. I did stop off at some of the amazing
beaches and had an impression of what might have been. The beaches are really lovely and I would have loved to have just parked the bike up, ate a pasty
and chilled out in the sun in this unique place!
Heading back to the Harbour and Penzance...
I was only on St Mary's for a short day trip and had a few hours ashore to ride around the island. It is fairly easy to go to the surrounding islands using the
local boats if you have longer. The queue for boat embarkation was quite long as the ship holds nearly 500 people, but despite the rain there were only a
few glum faces. Most of us were happy to have just visited the islands and ticked off a place in the UK that is well off the map.
We left St Mary's at 1615 as I watched a van being crane loaded into the depths of the ship along with other exports including fish and flowers. The poor
weather meant that all flights to the island were also cancelled, so the boat was very busy. I managed to reclaim the solo seat on the bottom deck, but spent
most of the journey on the outside deck. I even felt the weird sensation of sailing through the warm jetstream where a pocket of warm air blew across the
boat for several miles. The crossing on the return was overall fairly choppy and the boat lurched up and down from all angles. At points, the Scillonian was
nearly sailing sideways!
Back on dry land...
After heading back down to the bottom deck to close my eyes and roll with the motion of the ship for the remainder of the journey, the Scillonian III reached
Penzance around 19:00 in cold drizzle and a town that had shut up shop for the day. I must admit that I was glad to reach land again after 24 hours on the
move. My clothes were still soaked from the cycling and for the first day of August, this was very disappointing and such a shame. However I did not feel
down as I had visited somewhere new and from what I had seen through the drizzle, the islands would look fantastic on a sunny day.
I then caught the bus to nearby Hayle from Penzance to begin the next part of my Cornwall tour with Jilly, her family and Pauline's extended family of four

Baylor announced earlier this week that it is recruiting pleural mesothelioma patients to receive either one or two immunotherapy drugs followed by cytoreductive surgery to remove the visible mesothelioma tumors.
"I predict that immunotherapy will rise to become a critical component of multimodality therapy for mesothelioma patients," says Dr. Bryan Burt, assistant professor of surgery at Baylor and principal investigator on the trial.
The study, announced this week on the Baylor website, is the first to involve administration of immunotherapy drugs prior to, rather than following, mesothelioma surgery.
"By reactivating the immune system to help fight mesothelioma, it is hoped that these immunotherapy drugs will increase the odds of surviving this hard-to-treat cancer," says Alex Strauss, Managing Editor of Surviving Mesothelioma.
You can read more about the Baylor study and about immunotherapy for pleural mesothelioma treatment in Baylor to Test New Combination Therapy for Mesothelioma, now available on the Surviving Mesothelioma website.

The TOT, organized by ActionAid Bangladesh, brought together many different NGO actors of Bangladesh, including VOICE. The main objective of the TOT was to start an ELBAG process in Bangladesh to promote greater social mobilization, and the bringing together of various groups to focus on areas such as economic literacy, budget analysis, public distribution and the functioning of local services. The TOT learning process focused on a participatory method, with group discussions on the local economy, the household political economy, aid regime and its implications on the structure of budget, budget analysis, etc, and various activities like a budget exercise. The main facilitators of the TOT were Ravi Duggal, consultant from India, Thao Hoang, Regional Coordinator for Governance, ActionAid Asia, and Asgar Ali Sabri, Sector Head for Social Development and Economic Justice, ActionAid Bangladesh.
VOICE already published, in June 2007, a Manual on Economic Literacy, to support the ELBAG process by making the economic literacy notions understood at the grassroots level.

Opens StoresBy Bernhard Warner|November 30, 1998ShareBy Bernhard Warner|November 30, 1998Share Figuring that human interaction will make a clear difference in the overcrowded e-commerce marketplace, The Mining Co., New York, is expanding its guide concept–in which people give Internet recommendations to Mining Co. visitors–to the selling of goods on the Web. The concept launches today with the company's first "guide stores" which will offer consumers buying tips on videos from as many as 620 of its Web consultants. The launch of the guide video stores–as they're currently being called –will eventually be expanded to include other product categories such as books, music and computer software. The initiative proves that The Mining Co. is becoming less reliant on ad revenue, as it pursues income from electronic commerce. The expansion into books, music and software will probably come after Christmas, a company spokesman said. The 70 or so guide video stores are linking to individual guide sites which reside on The Mining Co. site. Videos were the first product category available, primarily because of a deal struck recently between The Mining Co. and Web-based video retailer, BigStar.com. As to the roles the guide will play, each will offer consumers recommendations on titles that pertain to their area of expertise on topics such as health, computing and travel in exchange for a bounty or flat fee from BigStar.com that will be shared with The Mining Co. Similar deals are being pursued with Web merchants like BarnesandNoble.com and CDnow, a Mining Co. company spokesman said. Sharehttp://adweek.it/2l9VUFW copy Adweek Adweek

12 simple techniques for efficient work in Excel (9 photos + 5 hyphas)
To a human uninitiated, the Excel spreadsheet program seems huge, incomprehensible and therefore frightening.
In fact, this is a handy tool, and if you know the small tricks, you can greatly shorten the time to perform normal functions.
1. Quickly add new data to the chart:
If for your chart you have already created new data to add, you can simply select the range with new information, copy it (Ctrl + C) and then paste it directly into the diagram (Ctrl + V).
2. Instant Fill (Flash Fill)
This function appeared only in the latest version of Excel 2013, but it is worth it to upgrade to the new version ahead of schedule. Suppose that you have a list of full names (Ivanov Ivan Ivanovich), which you need to turn into abbreviated ones (Ivanov II).
To perform such a conversion, you just need to start writing the desired text in the next column manually. On the second or third line, Excel will try to anticipate our actions and perform further processing automatically. You will only have to press the Enter key to confirm, and all the names will be converted instantly.
3. Copy without breaking the formats
You probably know about the "magic" autocomplete token - a thin black cross in the lower right corner of the cell, pulling which you can copy the contents of the cell or the formula directly to several cells. However, there is one nasty nuance: such copying often violates the design of the table, because not only the formula is copied, but also the format of the cell. This can be avoided if immediately after dragging by the black cross click on the smart tag - a special icon that appears in the lower right corner of the copied area.
If you select the option "Fill Without Formatting", Microsoft Excel will copy your formula without a format and will not spoil the design.
4. Displaying data from an Excel spreadsheet on a map
In the latest version of Excel 2013, you can quickly display on your interactive map your geographic data, for example, sales through cities, etc. To do this, go to the "Office Store" on the "Insert" tab and install the Bing plug-in from there Maps.
This can be done and by direct link from the site, clicking the Add button. After adding the module, you can select it from the "My Apps" drop-down list on the "Insert" tab and place it on your worksheet. It remains to highlight your cells with data and click on the Show Locations button in the map module to see our data on it.
5. Quick jump to the desired sheet
A table of contents appears, and you can switch to any desired sheet instantly.
You can also create a table of contents with hyperlinks on a separate sheet. This is a little more complicated, but often more convenient.
6. Convert rows to columns and back
If you ever had to shift the cells from one row to the next, you will appreciate the following trick:
Select the range.
Copy it (Ctrl + C) or, clicking on the right mouse button, select "Copy".
Right-click on the cell where you want to insert the data, and select one of the special insertion options in the context menu - the "Transpose" icon.
In older versions of Excel, there is no such icon, but you can solve the problem with a special paste (Ctrl + Alt + V) and select the option "Transpose" (Transpose)
7. Drop-down list in the cell
If you enter in a cell a strictly defined value from an allowed set (for example, only "yes" and "no" or only from the list of departments of the company, etc.), then this can be easily organized using the drop-down list:
Select the cell (or range of cells) in which there should be such a restriction.
Click the "Validate Data" button on the "Data - Validation" tab.
In the "Type" drop-down list, select the "List" option.
In the "Source" field, specify the range containing the reference variants of the elements, which will subsequently drop out when you type.
8. "Smart" table
If you select a range with the data and click on the "Home" tab (Home - Format as Table), our list will be converted to a "smart" table, which (besides the fashion striped coloring) has many useful features:
Automatically stretch when you add new rows or columns to it.
The entered formulas will automatically be copied to the entire column.
The header of such a table is automatically fixed when scrolling, and the filter buttons for selecting and sorting are included in it.
On the appeared tab "Design" (Design) in such table it is possible to add a line of totals with automatic calculation.
9. Sparklines
Sparklines are miniature diagrams drawn directly in the cells that clearly show the dynamics of our data. To create them, click the "Line" or "Columns" button in the "Sparklines" group on the "Insert" tab. In the window that opens, specify the range with the original numeric data and the cells where you want to display the sparklines.
After clicking on the "OK" button, Excel will create them in the specified cells. On the appeared tab "Design" (Design) it is possible to additionally adjust their color, type, to include display of the minimum and maximum values, etc.
10. Restoring unsaved files
Friday. Evening. The long-awaited end of the shock work week. Anticipating the rest, you close the report with which you have been busy the last half of the day, and suddenly, for some reason, click "No" in the dialog "Save changes to the file?"
Empty office announces your heartrending scream, but it's too late - the last few hours of work have gone under the tail and instead of a pleasant evening in the company of friends, you will have to restore the lost one.
In fact, there is a strong chance to improve the situation. If you have Excel 2010, then click on "File" - "Recent" (File - Recent) and find in the lower right corner of the screen the button "Recover Unsaved Workbooks" (Recover Unsaved Workbooks). In Excel 2013, the path is slightly different: "File" - "Information" - "Version Management" - "Restore unsaved workbooks" (File - Properties - Recover Unsaved Workbooks). A special folder from the depths of Microsoft Office opens, where for this case, temporary copies of all created or modified, but unsaved books are saved.
11. Comparison of the two ranges for differences and coincidences
Quite often when working in Excel, it becomes necessary to compare two lists and quickly find the elements that match or differ in them. The fastest and most visible way to do this is:
Select both of the compared columns (hold down the Ctrl key).
Select on the Home tab - Conditional Formatting - Cell Selection Rules - Home-Conditional formatting - Highlight Cell Rules - Duplicate Values.
Choose "Unique" from the drop-down list.
12. Selection (adjustment) of calculation results to the desired values
Have you ever picked up input values in your Excel calculation to get the output you want? At such times you feel like a martial artilleryman, right? Just a couple of dozen iterations "not long - flight", and here it is, the long-awaited "hit"!
Microsoft Excel can do this for you, and faster and more accurately. To do this, click on the "Insert" tab, the "Analysis" button that if "" and select the "Insert - What If Analysis - Goal Seek" command. In the window that appears, specify the cell where you want to select the desired value, the desired result and the input cell, which should change. After clicking on "OK" Excel will execute up to 100 "shots" in order to find the required result with an accuracy of 0.001.

fast growing chicken friendly climbers
Because of the flooding on the plot im having to move the run, but the problem is the place where the run is now is the only place in shade, the rest of the plot is in full sun, so i need to provide some shade for chooks. I was thinking about a climber that can climb up two sides of the run and over the top eventually, but i want a fast climber like a creeper, but that is chicken friendly and preferably that i can get something off like a dog rose or blackcurrant? any ideas x or i somehow create some shade for them x

Just make sure my think works are wound extra tight, and I will formulate a plan!
Re: fast growing chicken friendly climbers
Boosmummy Ive wondered about this to. I have the omlett Walk-in-Run and think it might blend into the garden more if I could have something growing up the side. Look forward to any replies.....

Re: fast growing chicken friendly climbers
I planted some nasturtium on the outside of the run in the spring but guess what they ate em when I let them out! I have got a big buddlea in the run which they dont bother about and it provides shade.
"cockerels may crow but it's the hen that lays the egg."
Re: fast growing chicken friendly climbers
kiwi has big leaves in the summer, passion fruit grows quick. grape vine takes a while to get started . Personally I love nasturtium you can eat the leaves, flowers and seeds... but like julie, my ladies love them more.....especially if they are covered in blackfly
last year I grew pumpkin in my compost barrel. which is next to the run and it will happily climb if it has something to cling to. You may end up with pumpkins on the roof of the run but the ladies wont mind I think it makes good use of otherwise wasted space
Re: fast growing chicken friendly climbers
My chickens love rose leaves, but I have managed to get a climber going by putting mesh around it until it took off. I do let them now eat the lower leaves and it is not detrimental to the top growth. Albertine is a beautiful very highly scented rambler rose and grows very quickly. It will in no time cover a trellis. It only flowers once but when in flower is absolutely covered in pale peach coloured roses.
Or why not plant a grape and let it climb over the top. It will take a couple of years to get thick but in the meantime you can fix shade netting overhead for shade. We have a black edible grape, now 5yrs old and it is so rampant that I am forever cutting off upward shooting stems. I have just picked the first of our grapes which although small are delicious. This again will need protecting until tall and a bonus is that the chickens go mad for the grapes and love it when I throw down a pile of stems.
I am now a widow and live with Beau my little rescue dog, Mistie cat and Rosie my last chicken.
Re: fast growing chicken friendly climbers
I'd go roses too. Same story, mesh to start then let them eat what they can reach.
Narrow upright shrubs would work as an alternative maybe. I use evergreen natidas mainly for my hens. The green ones grow fastest and the golden ones enjoy close pruning best (topiary shrubs that beat box on every level
I stuck a few natidas in and the hen go among them in all weathers to snooze, hunt and avoid bickering.
