text:
Any condition you have, even if quite sudden and unexpected, came on by a process called disease pathogenesis.
It didn't just happen. A chain of events was involved, stretching back days, weeks, months or years - perhaps even to "past lives¹."
If you come down with the flu or measles, there will have been an "incubation period" during which the virus was silently multiplying in your body. Before that you may have been burning the candle at both ends and run down, so that you were a sitting duck² for the next virus that came along.
Any long standing condition³ can be assumed to need attention to the relevant causes, if it is to be eliminated entirely – or even managed adequately.
This requires us to be clear on what are causes and what are parts of our response to the causes (the subsequent disease process.).
The plural here is deliberate. Multiple causes can operate in parallel (together at the same time) or in series (one after the other, at different stages of the process.) One example is multistage carcinogenesis⁴,12 – initiation, promotion and progression.
From Hoffer and Osmond⁸...
There are few things in life which have one cause. There are no diseases where single causes operate. On the contrary, there is no limit to the number and diversity of causes which may work together in producing any disease.
Quoting Dr. Archie Kalokerinos (1979)...
There must be thousands of factors, but if you can remove the main ones, then maybe you can tolerate the ones that you can't remove and you will lessen the risk of any problem. For example, if you have six legs on a table, you can probably cut up to three of them off and the table will still stand. Then you cut another off and the table will fall.
Gregor Mendel's experiments⁵ with garden peas made it sound quite
simple. It was believed that one gene allele (particular variety of this
gene)causes one result.
We now know however, that genes can be turned on and off (expressed or not) and can have different effects in different circumstances or in different combinations with other genes.
Despite our obvious differences, chimpanzees and humans genomes are 90% to 95% the same. The same genes are doing different things in two animals.
In our body skin, muscle and brain cells look and function quite differently, but all have exactly the same genes in their nuclei.
Maybe you chose your genes¹, and certainly you chose how to express them subsequently (through diet and lifestyle.)
This "epigenetic modification"⁶ is passed on to the new cells when the involved cell divides into two to replace a worn out cell, so it is passed on in that individual.
Dr. John Harrison, in his outstanding book "Love Your Disease. It's Keeping You Healthy," says...
"Predisposition to diseases are often not passed on in a physical sense (that is, through transmission of faulty genes), but rather through the messages parents give their offspring and the living habits and diet they pass down."
This is not about beating yourself up over past decisions nor about blaming your parents.
It is all to do with accepting that change can happen, in suitable circumstances. In fact it does happen all the time, dependant on circumstances.
Disease pathogenesis can be reversed.
Louise Hay says it all in the title of her wonderful book ..."You Can Heal Your Life."
Anything can be healed.
Ainslie Meares was a psychiatrist in Melbourne who let his medical qualification lapse so that he could pursue his chosen field. This was of a form of hypnosis meditation therapy. He wrote a best selling book called "Relief Without Drugs."
He collected case histories from all over the world, of spontaneous recovery from proven cancers.
One I remember was of an unmarried woman in Japan who had been "sent to Coventry" by her family after she had an illegitimate child. She was confined to a barn and no-one spoke to her. Her food was placed at the door. She developed cancer and the family then forgave her and took her back in, and the cancer recovered spontaneously.
Anita Moorjani's NDE healing account is a wonderful example. Her book "Dying to be Me" is a good read, as is her account at nderf.org
http://www.nderf.org .
So it's not "just the way I am" (inevitably, due to my inheritance) but a work in progress – a job needing doing.
"The field of environmental research has benefited greatly from the concept of biomarkers, which originally expanded our thinking by opening the "black box" between environmental exposures and manifestations of disease and dysfunction in exposed populations, as laid out in a highly influential article published in 1987 by an expert committee convened by the National Research Council. Advances in biomedical research now challenge us to revise this concept to include the microbiome as a critical stage in the progression from exposure to outcome."
"In humans, most cancers of the ascending colon are associated with biofilms. These cancer-linked biofilms are both highly invasive, with bacteria penetrating into intestinal crypts, and polymicrobial. Interestingly, when comparing the composition of paired communities from cancerous mucosa with normal mucosa in the same patient, it was found that they are highly overlapping, indicating that it is not the enrichment of particular pathogenic species but rather the spatial organization of the community into a biofilm that can intimately associate with the epithelium that may be responsible for carcinogenesis.
However, it is important to note that so far these studies are correlative. It is also possible that changes that occur, independently of the microbiota, in environments in which tumours develop are conducive to both tumorigenesis and the re-organization of the microbiota into biofilms."
Multidetermination in human phenomena was one of Sigmund Freud's main hypotheses, along with the importance of unconscious mental processes and biological drives.
In disease pathogenesis, lots of factors work together or one after the other, often towards a final common pathway of dysfunction.
Socio-economic and geographic factors hide a multitude of more fundamental causes.
If you lived in Love Canal, exposure to dioxins would be part of the story.
Location at higher latitudes could result in lower vitamin D production in your skin.
Living in Pakistan, India or Bangldesh could result in arsenic poisoning from groundwater.
The basic causes have to be too little or too much of something.
Dietary intakes of essential trace elements, vitamins, essential fatty acids, phytonutrients, good quality protein and water are commonly below optimum even in "developed" countries.
Even good intake may not be enough. Elite sports, overactive thyroid gland or genetic polymorphisms⁹ can require greater than normal intakes for optimal functioning.
Like a small child, you have to repeatedly ask the same question..."why"
For instance, intake and assimilation of the above nutrients might be reduced by poor digestion or appetite from some infection or chronic disease.
You will be progressively unravelling the steps of the disease pathogenesis, back towards the basic causes which you need to address.
One of my patients, when asked by a friend what ailed him, replied "nothing I don't know about."
Another patient told me "We can handle anything as long as we know. (Otherwise) you imagine everything under the sun."
Certainty is more comfortable than uncertainty. "the devil you know..."
Naming something gives us the feeling that we understand it, or that our health professional hopefully understands it.
Naming is potentially powerful¹. Thus it may be considered inappropriate, as in the Jewish tradition not to name God - the tetragammaton YHVH was unutterable. In the Harry Potter stories people could not name voldemort.
Naming the illness may help give us a feeling of being in control.
We tell our story and have a physical examination. Our health professional decides on a differential diagnosis (a list of likely categories of illness.)
Further direct questions, more detailed examinations, pathology and imaging tests may then be used to reduce the possibilities to hopefully just one label.
This labelling involves applying a systematic body of knowledge, and the system used restricts the possible diagnostic categories.
There are many systems available, such as modern western, traditional Chinese or Ayurvedic medicine.
Each system has a different idea of how disease pathogenesis works.
Other systems include homeopathy, Dr.Ryke Geerd Hamer's German New Medicine, Dietrich klinghardt's pyramid, homotoxicology stages of disease, Sam Queen's six subclinical defects⁷, reactive organs and meridians in kinesiology and Huneke's neural therapy interference fields - all with good scientific background and/or practical value.
Prof. Trevor Marshall talks about successive infections modifying the immune function progressively and
the role of vitamin D and its receptor. This is a very good page, well worth reading carfully.
Commercial airliners have multiple backup hydraulics systems. Jet fighters have two completely different computor systems. When one has serious illness, reliance on just one paradigm for sorting it, is likely to be inadequate. Modern western medicine definitely does not have all the answers.
There was a well known thief in Dimboola, too cunning to ever be caught. He stole some hay once and the police thought the evidence cast-iron, with a trail of hay leading from the victim's home to his. He defended himself successfully by accusing the victim of stealing his hay.
If a particular circumstance and a condition occur together more than explained by chance, this doesn't prove cause and effect. Both may be caused by some other unsuspected factor, or the "condition" may have caused the "circumstance."
Someone used an analogy of a car trip¹¹. Researchers trying to separate data variables into drivers and the passengers, while they may all be passengers just be along for the ride with an as yet unknown variable actually doing the driving.
In the observational "Nurses Health Study" hormone replacement therapy was associated with better outcomes over the years. This was used to justify prescription of HRT for more than simply relief of hot flushes.
Later, in the "Women's Health Initiative" trial, the earlier understanding was turned on its head dramatically. This was a randomized, placebo controlled intervention trial. It proved that HRT was not responsible for the better outcomes seen in the observational trial. Nurses who chose to take HRT had obviously made other lifestyle and diet choices which gave them better health.
The scientific evidence base for most of medical practice is really quite meagre. It is increasingly being modified by commercial interests.
In everyday practice, this is something one just has to live with. See
the uncertainty principle page
To quote James B. Beal¹⁴...
"Life processes are of an extremely complex nature. They are dynamic processes involving systems and subsystems, forever changing through a constant holding pattern right on down to the atomic level and beyond (fields within fields!). We understand little about the single cell and its functions. What happens when you put billions of cells together to form brain and body and then expose to another dynamic variable, the environment? Several orders of magnitude of complexity exist to challenge our technical capabilities. Thus, it is not surprising that occasionally hierarchical [higher order] phenomena may occur in healing (and other areas) which cannot be explained by conventional means."Modern attempts to deal with this complexity use a lot of computer power and "iteration" to explore the networks of potential causes and effects on the different levels of organization in our bodies. This is called "systems biology."
"Common human diseases originate from a more complex interplay between constellations of changes in DNA (both rare and common variations) and a broad range of factors such as diet, age, gender and exposure to environmental toxins."
From Dr. Denise Moffat's biography¹³...
"For about 20 years after the NDE at a certain time of the year, around the anniversary of the experience, I found myself subconsciously looking for a way out of living. One time I swallowed a huge bottle of orange-flavored aspirin because I was hungry and needing a midnight snack–Got my stomach pumped then. Once I nearly drowned in the local swimming hole and was rescued by my blood father–I found I didn't even resist and try to swim. Lights were flashing all around me and it was so peaceful, then he yanked me out. Another time I choked on a cherry and was rescued by a friend. The next summer I was almost hit by a car. Once you've seen the other side you're not afraid to go back. That drive to return to heaven can be strong and I do believe that it is a common undiagnosed cause of depression."
To quote Dr. Julian L. Seifter
"I always tell them that it is serious, but it's not the end of all possibilities — you're alive till you are dead. It's not over till it's over."
This interview is a good read, on how he encourages people to take up very satisfying new possibilities when disabled by illness.
Too often the pathogenesis of disease doesn't stop with a diagnosis, but includes progressive deconditioning and emotional fragility. If you're watching this happening to a loved one or to yourself, this little note may help you think outside the box.
Aaron Antonovsky had a term for the opposite of pathogenesis, salutogenesis. This process of health development can be started at any stage, particularly by involvement in things which are satisfying and help to make life more interesting.
1. Soozi Holbeche wrote "Journeys Through Time A guide to reincarnation and your immortal soul." 1995 Piatkus ISBN 0-7499-1466-1
The following are exerpts from her book...
p 43
"we are not mere physical creatures moving from birth to death, but spiritual creators of our own reality."
"A body, like an artist's painting, is a unique expression of imagination and creativity. It is a living record of everything that has ever happened to it....Every cell, muscle, tissue as well as the bones and systems of the body, contain memory...When new cells are born into a a particular matrix of thought and emotion, they hold that memory....This is why many therapists when doing various types of bodywork pick up or diagnose the source of a patient's problems, instead of the symptom."
"Strange lumps, bumps and scars often bear witness to how a past-life personality died – especially when it was a violent death....Titu, whose story I told at the beginning of the chapter, has a purple birth-mark in the exact spot where the bullet hit him when he was Uma's husband....It is as if the child has so strongly integrated the traumatic memory of his past death that he uses his new body to say: 'Look what happened to me!'"
p 118
"...our first earthly experiences had to be those of observers rather than participants. As we evolve in intelligence and understanding, we incarnate into a physical body, through which we can then consciously participate in life. Today many 'new-to-planet-earth-souls' get their observer experience in bodies that suffer from cerebral palsy, Down's syndrome, autism, mental retardation, paralysis or other life-restricting diseases. (Of course, this is not the sole reason for such problems.)"
2 I do like mixing metaphors. If this confuses you, my apologies.
3. Any experience at all, even if only brief, has some sort of significance for us. Sometimes this is obvious, as when a previously elusive memory suddenly surfaces in response to a cue from our surroundings.
4. Human colorectal carcinoma – Fusobacterium nucleatum infection probably causative (http://genome.cshlp.org/content/22/2/299.abstract,) 5 genes mutated – APC, MCC P53, DCC and ras
At the level of Chemical messenger molecules, complement Decay Accelerating Factor (CD55), vascular endothelial growth factor, HLA-G, transforming growth factor (TGF)-β, cyclo-oxygenase (COX)-2, histamine and Interleukin-10 are all overproduced in colon cancer and contribute to the cancer escaping damage from the immune system.
5. Gregor Mendel experimented in the 1860's when genetics were not understood. He used different varieties of garden peas, and showed patterns of inheritance much later understood as due to paired genes on the two DNA molocules.
6 Chemical changes in genes or their promoters, which can be passed on to the progeny of the cell and which change how the information in the genes shows up in the cells form or function.
Brain, skin and muscle cells all have exactly the same DNA but look and act entirely differently because of their specific epigenetic modifications – which are passed on to each new brain, skin or muscle cell.
7. Sam Queen has a "health model" rather than a disease model. His six subclinical defects operate across the whole spectrum of named "diseases." They are acid/base imbalance, anaerobic metabolism, free calcium excess, chronic inflammation, connective tissue breakdown and oxidative stress.
8. Abram Hoffer and Humphry Osmond: How To Live With Schizophrenia: Citadel Press 1974
9. Genetic polymorphisms are just inherited differences, which may involve only one of a string of thousands of nucleotide bases in a gene. An extreme example is vitamin B 6 dependency, where 100 times the usual level of B6 is needed to prevent convulsions.
10. Reciting The Lord's Prayer, Hindu mantras such as "Om Namah Shivaya" and Stuart Wilde's "I am eternal, immortal, universal and infinite" etc link one into goodness, invoke the Godhead. The mind which recites these, acknowledges oneness with the Godhead.
Naming a condition similarly invokes a large body of information agreed upon by many stakeholders.

Tantric Massage City of London
Tantric massage is fast becoming one of the most popular forms of erotic massage therapy in the UK. It has proved to be a great way for people to stay calm and relaxed as well as experiencing some very sensual and pleasurable therapy in the process. Our discreet and luxury sanctuary in the City of London is somewhere you can experience the delights of body to body massage therapy by some of the most well trained and experienced tantric goddesses you could ever hope to meet.
At our central London tantric massage agency we always ensure that all masseuses that work with us have had the very highest standard if training and al possess the relevant qualifications in massage therapy. This ensures that our clients will only receive a first class services from our goddesses at all times. It is through paying attention to clients needs and giving a first class customer service that we have become on of London's favourite b2b massage agencies.
We try to be very flexible for our clients and this means that we offer both incall and outcall massage services. So whether you are on business and staying in one of London's hotels or perhaps you live the area, then this is absolutely no problem as you are more than welcome to take advantage of our mobile massage service, where our stunning goddesses can visit you. Similar to our incall massage services, we have masseuses available 6 days a week for tantric massage city of London among other services that we provide.
Why Use Tantra in the City
We have found for one reason or another often form the wrong idea about tantra teaching. Tantra is really about an awakening of the senses in body, mind and spirit and leaning to channel sexual energy effectively in the body. We believe that the bringing together of the masculine and feminine paths leads to the formation of a body of wisdom or Sanskrit which literally translates to a transformation.
Clients that really get into the tantric teachings can actually take many different benefits from out therapy sessions ranging from developing into a calmer person as well as tackling a range of sexual problems such as helping with a loss of libido and also to leave things like premature ejaculation as a thing of the past. There is no special magic involved in tantra but it is merely by gaining an increased awareness of yourself from a sexual and spiritual perspective that you can start to overcome certain problems. breathing techniques are also a great tool for guys that suffer from these psychological issues as this is the perfect way to gain control whilst in this environment.
For clients that like b2b massage but would rather try something a bit different then Nuru massage is a real treat. Nuru massage comes from Japan and is body to body massage with a difference as it uses a special Nuru gel for the massage therapy. Definitely on to try!
Other Erotic & Sensual Massage
Although we do specialise in Tantric Massage Therapy, we also cover the full range of other erotic massage services at our sensual London massage parlour in the City of London. Some of the main types of massage that we offer are:
- Mutual
- 4 Hands
- Lingam
- Yoni
- Naturist

- Barbican
- Blackfriars
- Chancery Lane

- Fleet Street
- Liverpool Street

Only two hours after prosecutors told jurors that victim Geralyn Barr DeSoto was "screaming out" to them through crime-scene evidence, a jury convicted suspected serial killer Derrick Todd Lee in the first of four murder trials. Lee, portrayed by prosecutors as a cold-blooded killer with "ice water running through his veins," showed no emotion when he heard the jury's 11-1 vote to convict. Lee, who has been linked to the deaths of seven women and an attack on an eighth woman who survived, is scheduled to go on trial again next month. If Lee, 35, is convicted there of killing Charlotte Murray Pace, he would face the death penalty.
Lee's public defender, Tommy Thompson, instead of trying to rebut prosecutors' evidence about boot prints, DNA, or the alleged murder weapon — a small paring knife — called witnesses who focused primarily on DeSoto's troubled marriage.
For months after the murder, investigators had suspected that Darren DeSoto might have killed his wife. Alluding to the publicity surrounding Lee's case, Thompson asked the jury, "Are we going to try the case on emotion and media hype? Hell, then drag him out right now, stick him beneath a tree, hang him up and let him die."

Kieran Duncan's animated short "Concerning Dragons" is not only beautiful but the papercraft style used in it leaves the viewer desperately wanting to see further Tolkien history (though the Dragons coming from eagles is solely an idea from the film makers) presented in such a fashion.
Kieran directed this for an animation class project which is why it is merely 30 seconds long but looking at the comments on the Vimeo page it seems that there are more than a few people that would like to also see another short in the future. Maybe Peter Jackson can have a hand in that?
A big thanks to Lauren Davis from io9 for the heads up on the short!

In a small saucepan add edamame to salted boiling water. Cook for 1 minute. Drain edamame and run under cold water to cool them slightly and add them to a food processor. Using a microplane grate the ginger and add to food processor along with wasabi powder, lemon juice, salt, sesame oil and scallions. Process until a chunky consistency forms.
Working with 1 wonton wrapper at a time (cover remaining wrappers with a damp towel to prevent drying), spoon about 1 teaspoon edamame mixture in center of each wrapper. Moisten edges of dough with water; fold opposite corners to form a triangle, pinching points to seal. In a heat proof pan add about 2 inches oil and heat. When oil is hot add dumplings and fry until golden brown about 10 minutes. Fry off in batches making sure they don't touch in the oil so they won't stick. Remove with a slotted spoon or spider and place on paper towels to absorb the oil. Serve warm on a platter with soy sauce.

Washington, D.C. (May 2, 2018) -- The 2018 State Teachers of the Year were honored today at the White House. The following are prepared remarks of 2018 National Teacher of the Year Mandy Manning for her speech to the nation that she presented at the White House. Given remarks may have varied from the written remarks.
Thank you for hosting us today and for this tremendous honor. I almost can't believe it, especially in this surreal moment as I stand in this room among my fellow State Teachers of the Year.
The one thing that anchors me, and teachers across this country, is our students.
I am honored and humbled to be the vehicle through which they may tell their stories. I am here for David, a future IT specialist who hopes to one day be able to attend University. I am here for Tamara, who is currently studying pre-med at Eastern Washington University. I am here for Safa and Tara, both future elementary school teachers. And I am here for Solomon and Gafishi who believe that the United States is the place where they have found the center of their lives, where they can have dreams and hopes to be someone. You see, my students are immigrants and refugees brand new to our nation.
I teach in the Newcomer Center at Ferris High School in Spokane, Washington. All of the students who walk into my classroom have three things in common, they are just learning English, they have escaped trauma to find new lives in our nation, and they are focused and determined to be productive citizens of our United States. And, they succeed.
Consider Safa from Sudan, who recently became a citizen, she had a 4th grade education when she arrived, but graduated in just 4 years and is now a sophomore at university. Or, Hussein from Iraq, who came at 20 years old, but now has a successful cosmetology business. Jeff from Haiti, who studies sociology at Whitworth University to be a counselor. And Neroz and Mohamad from Syria, both profoundly deaf, learning American Sign Language to attend Gallaudet University.
Over the next year, I will be sharing my students' stories and profound insights into our country throughout the nation. Like Sultan's, a refugee from Syria, who escaped war in his country, and understands the importance of the United States to be peacemakers. I am here for refugee and immigrant students, for the kids in the gay-straight alliance, and for all the girls I've coached over the years, to send them the message that they are wanted, they are loved, they are enough, and they matter. Go out today, seek an experience you have never had before. Get uncomfortable. Challenge your own perceptions to find clarity. Be fearless, be kind, meet someone new.
Thank you for this honor and this opportunity. I will not take it lightly.

"Rampant capitalism has taught the logic of profit at all costs, of giving to get, of exploitation without looking at the person… and we see the results in the crisis we are experiencing! [The Church] is a place that teaches charity: it is a 'school' of charity, which instructs me to go and encounter every person, not for profit, but for love." –Pope Francis

Next weekend is Chinese New Year Eve already, and I've been busy baking the last few days! The kids eat about three quarters of the first tray of each bake even before the cookies are cooled, so I have to keep baking more cookies to replenish my "supply". I'll try to do some cute ones worth posting, the last 2 cookie recipes I tried are so super yummy that even my health-conscious hubby keeps snacking on it!
The coming Lunar New Year will be the Year of the Monkey. I made two monkey-themed bentos so far, will see if I can do more this coming week.
This first monkey bento was done for a demo earlier this month. I used teriyaki sauce to colour the rice brown, and made a rice version of a gold ingot for the monkey to hold. May the coming year be a prosperous one for everyone!
I carved the word 福 into a slice of red apple, and turned it upside-down. The Chinese believe that when the word is upside down, 福倒 sounds like the arrival of fortune and good luck.
The next monkey bento is a simple one I made out of an open faced peanut butter sandwich. The trunk and branches of the tree are made using thin slices of cucumber. The monkey is holding two mandarin oranges which I cut out from carrots. So this monkey is all ready to go visiting during the Lunar New Year!

You don't want this on your boarding pass
THERE are many things a traveller doesn't want to see at the airport - long security queues, a 'delayed' sign on the departures board or a flight attendant checking bags into the hold at the boarding gate.
But one of the biggest signs that you are about to have a nightmare journey is the letters 'SSSS' on your boarding pass.
The code, which only applies if you are travelling to the US, means "Secondary Security Screening Selection." It means that, like comedian Nazeem Hessain recently experienced, the passenger has been selected for additional screening by security.
When you get #SSSS on your boarding ticket 😡 https://t.co/3b0twUWRH5 pic.twitter.com/yKreXbgkM8— Tom Burke (@tomburke999) August 30, 2017
Officials will take a particular interest in you and your luggage; giving you a pat down, swabbing for explosive residue and opening up all of your bags.
They may also require extra information to prove identity and a detailed run-down of all travel plans.
The scheme was introduced by the Transport Security Administration after the 9/11 terror attacks, to help prevent dodgy characters from getting on planes heading into or out of the US.
It is unknown how many people are on the SSSS list as it is kept secret, but if you can't check in online then it could be a sign you are on it.
I won the TSA lottery 🤣🤣🤣 #SSSS pic.twitter.com/aOeuQ2Fja9— Veronica M. (@veemaestrocampo) July 27, 2017
In the past, the TSA has said that people are added to the list after being randomly selected by a computer.
But a TSA source has since claimed that there are other ways to get SSSS branded, including paying for a plane ticket by cash or regularly buying one - way tickets.
There are other reports of SSSS appearing on a boarding pass after they visited certain countries in the world, like Turkey.
It's not easy to get off the SSSS list, but anyone who wants to can appeal to the Department Of Security's Traveller Redress Inquiry Program.

Happiness is normally the prime search of every rational human being. One way to derive increasing happiness during the year we have just entered is to strive diligently to promote the happiness of others, to think of them first, yourself second. Happiness is the greatest tonic, the greatest elixir, of all. Worry is among the worst poisons. One sensible New Year resolution: I will do my utmost to have consideration for others, to exercise usefulness, to radiate happiness, to conquer worrying over things I cannot possibly remedy.

..said Wilko Johnson last night, when we spoke backstage. He was back in Cambridge at the Junction to perform his comeback gig, in aid of Addenbrooke's Hospital. It felt just like old times, he said, as he was about to step out to play with his old friends, Norman Watt Roy and Dylan Howe.
Guest of honour was Emmanuel Huguet, the surgeon, who saved his life with a 10 hour operation 10 months ago. 850 lucky people packed the sold out venue for the gig. In support were Eight Rounds Rapid, who were there 2 years ago, when they started his farewell tour. His son, Simon, the lead guitarist for Eight Rounds Rapid, must have felt that he might never open for his father again. There was happiness for Wilko's redemption, gratitude from the great man himself and respect for everyone, who looked after him last year.
A classic Wilko set list greeted the fans, who came from all over the world. All the songs you would want to hear from Roxette. The more I give, Johnny Be Good and more. Wilko no longer needed to rock his vintage Telecaster over his 3 kg tumour, as he played. This was the real thing, the chattering red and black guitar firing staccato machine gun riffs over Norm's relentless funky bass line. The staring, glaring eyes were there. This was a performance with real attitude - the sort that laughs in the face of death.
So if you're coming to his Still Kickin' tour, I have a Sneakin' Suspicion that you'll come out with a beaming smile. This a real Good News Story and I am very happy.

Another outstanding performance by the Kingston Boys in Europe's biggest festival of sport at Crystal Palace today.
As usual, the Games attracted the best players in age group from most of the football academies in London Boroughs and the standard was extremely high. Some of the players on show today will, like Raheem Sterling, make their way into the professional football.
The Kingston team, coached by Adam Wicks of the CCFC u21s, played some very strong teams but eventually lost to three times winners, Lewisham in the quarter finals, on one of the hottest days of the year so far.
Corinthian-Casuals player, David M. from the under 15s, scored a couple of very important goals for the team who played six games beating Havering, Brent, Hackney and Haringey.
A fantastic effort by everyone today including the very supportive parents who braved the heat and dust and drove home some very tired boys.
See you next year!

The first camera to land in my hands was a Kodak Instamatic. It was Christmas 1963. I was in the 3rd grade and little did I know it was the first in a long line of cameras. A camera has always played a documentary role in my primary endeavors which included playing music, hiking in Yosemite, running roads in New York and dancing in Oregon. I have only moved it to the foreground of my pursuits as physical injuries have put an end to my former primary interests. It seemed like the perfect transition into a new stage of my life
Fast forward several years: I now I have a Canon camera and gear to keep my mind engaged and inspired. Southern Oregon is scenic and is a continual resource to explore. I am also finding more time to travel, meet new people and expand my photographic knowledge.
We all have life transitions to go through. Photography has helped me to reinvent myself and I hope it will help others as well if they have that path to travel. Through this web site, I hope my visions inspire others down a journey of creativity.

Kim Kardashian In Danger? New Study Shows Selfies Kill More Than Sharks
Uh-oh. Kim Kardashian might want to rethink taking a selfie the next time she opens her camera app! A new study shows that taking selfies have killed more people than sharks have in the past year.
Kim Kardashian, 34, managed to stay alive after taking so many incredible selfies, however, the same cannot be said for others. Recent findings have revealed that taking a picture of yourself is more dangerous than encountering a shark in the ocean.
Click to buy Kim Kardashian Selfish on Amazon
The number of deaths are fairly close in comparison. A website dedicated to keeping track of fatal and non-fatal shark attacks, Shark Attack Survivors, has cited eight deaths in 2015 from shark attacks. While Mashable reports that there has been 12 selfie-related deaths. Selfie lovers should probably start being more careful when they indulge in their favorite past time. Who knew taking a picture of yourself could be so dangerous?
During the famous annual bull running festival in the town of Villaseca de la Sagra, Spain in Aug. 2015, a 32-year-old man died after being gored by a bull. He had apparently wandered into the center of the bull running area to take a selfie on his mobile device. As the animals started coming in his direction, the man was able to film a collision between two bulls before a third one ran towards him and gored him in the back. So sad. Bull running festivals are very dangerous, which is why there's a protected area for onlookers.
Man Falls to His Death After Trying To Take A Selfie At India's Taj Mahal
This is just another example of a selfie-related death. A Japanese tourist who was identified as Hideto Ueda reportedly fell down at the Taj Mahal's Royal Gate after he tried to take a selfie. The 66-year-old lost consciousness and was later pronounced dead, as reported by the BBC. An eyewitness at the scene also revealed one of Hideto's colleagues, who fell down with him, fractured his leg. An investigation is being conducted to figure out how the incident occurred. The Japanese embassy has been contacted about Hideto's unfortunate death.
Tell us, HollywoodLifers! Do these recent findings make you want to take less selfies?

Local Pest Control Services
Woodworm and rot are the two biggest threats to structural timbers in homes and business across Yorkshire.
Due to the combination of a predominantly damp climate and the traditional building methods used in construction, Yorkshire properties are susceptible to woodboring insect and fungal attacks. Various types of wet rot, dry rot and woodworm in Yorkshire, can individually or collectively cause untold damage to the structural timbers in buildings, resulting in costly remedial repairs and treatment.
Possible signs of a woodworm problem in Yorkshire:
• Small round holes in woodwork
• Fine, powdery dust around these holes
• Crumbly edges to boards and joists
• Adult beetles emerging from the holes or present in windowsills and other surfaces around the house
MJ Backhouses' Yorkshire woodworm control technicians are fully qualified and on hand to diagnose the type and extent of infestation and decay as well as to provide a cost effective long-term solution to the problem and treat any such infestation.
Initially we will identify the species and whether the infestation is still active. We then treat the woodworm infestation and also carry out a structural test to determine whether the timber is treatable or needs replacing.
Our range of treatments are clean and simple and vary depending on the property type but from our experience the treatment process will usually involve the cleaning down of affected timbers and the dual application of specialist treatment fluids and gels.
MJ Backhouse's woodworm control service in Yorkshire only use wood preservatives and masonry biocides that combine maximum effectiveness, the lowest levels of environmental hazards and also comply to our stringent health and safety policy.
For more information on how MJ Backhouse could help your Leeds, Wakefield or surrounding Yorkshire home, please call our team on 0800 542 6359.

Six months ago Sony announced its flagship smartphone, the Xperia Z2 and bang on time we have the new Xperia Z3. With such a small span Sony has proven that if your phone is six months old it is old. Sony did not do too well with its Z2 two months back but this new smartphone Z3, although it's not a huge upgrade but it is slightly different from the Z2. But how much of improvement does the Z3 have over Z2? Let's find out.
Talking about the design, the frame which between the two parts of the glass, is curved and feels much better than the Z2. We have the same 5.2 inch full HD display which is much brighter and almost looks like an Amoled display. The edges are now more curved and subtle. Even the flaps covering the ports and slots blend very well with the edges and the body. The button placements are exactly the same as what we have seen on the Z2. It has a glass panel at back with a 20.7 MP camera with an LED flash.
This phone has the most amazing and outstanding feature and that is waterproof and dustproof. Coming to the software, the Xperia Z3 runs on an Android OS, v4.4.4 (KitKat), which is the latest version and the build is slightly different so the UI looks slightly refreshed from what we have seen on the Xperia Z2 and Z1. It's good news for the prospective buyers and Xperia loyal customers that the new Z3 has introduced few new themes, widgets and also few new wall papers to give a new look to it.
The updated UI is definitely smoother and is much more stable than the older UI. You also be having all the patented Sony apps and also a Play Station app which lets you play PS4 games on your smartphone. The device runs on a Quad-core 2.5 GHz Snapdragon 801 processor along with a 3GB of RAM and an Adreno 330 GPU. So it's a high-end hardware on the smartphone which makes playing high-end games a piece of cake for it. The apps do not crash at all and if you are watching full HD movies it's actually very sharp. So for the hardware package, it's actually excellent.
So Xperia Z3, though not a game changer, but it does score pretty good and at par with the flagship smartphones available in the market.
It has got a 3100 mAh battery which supports the device to run for about one and a half day of normal usage. The audio and the video experience on the smartphone are quite good. Sony is always good at camera and it has got a 20.7 MP along with several other features. Sony claims to have ISO boost of about 12800 which is a lot on a smartphone. The Camera app has come up with a lot of improvements in terms of fast focusing and quick startup and feels much more responsive. There are few more modes as well. The camera does warn you as it can heat up when you are recording extensive 4K videos. The pictures taken by Xperia Z3 are pretty sharp and offer a pretty decent depth and the colors are good with a slight improvement in low light as well.

The Big Sister...
Posted: August 20, 2015
I am one of the, "big sisters" in my family of six. I am the third oldest. In my role, I was always looking out for my younger siblings. Last week at Holy Rosary, I met another, "big sister"… My guess is that she was 10 years old. She had, "it all going on." When I started talking to her, I noticed that she was holding two chapter books. St. Patrick's, as part of our on-going effort to lift up literacy in the Holy Rosary neighborhood, has started collecting books for the children who join us for a meal at Loaves & Fishes.
When I asked her about the chapter books, she said that she loves to read. I could tell that she was very proud. She showed me the two books she selected. When I asked where her younger brother's books were, she told me, "He needs to wait until he has eaten his dinner." I said that the books were being snapped up quickly, so I suggested that they go and select a couple of books for him too!
When I asked who brought them to dinner, she said in a matter of fact way that, "she and her brother were hungry so they walked across the street for dinner." Her younger brother couldn't have been more than eight years old. I had to stop for a couple of minutes to let it to sink in. I was amazed at how savvy and resilient this older sister was to find a way for them to get a hot meal.
This moment made me reflect on the meals my children shared with our good friends across the street. They were like family to us when our children were growing up. There were meals, after school snacks and lots of sleep overs. They were always running back and forth. I remember one afternoon when my children were gone for an after school activity, our neighbor Amy came over for some brownies. My husband came home from work and was wondering why when all of our children were gone, our neighbor Amy was sitting at the bar in the kitchen eating some brownies I had just baked. I said, "we are enjoying an after school snack."
In our neighborhood, there is a strong sense of community. Everyone looks out for the children. They ride bikes, scooter, play yard games and enjoy the beautiful playground and park right by our house. There is a sense of safety and security for all of our children. All of our neighbors care about what is happening in the neighborhood.
Today in many neighborhoods with families struggling with poverty, children take on the role of adults. It made me sad to think that no one was at home making a meal for this brother and sister. I also wondered about the circumstances that forced two hungry children to go and find dinner in a church basement with a bunch of strangers.
As I have reflected on this encounter, I believe this brother and sister are lucky to have each other. The younger brother also had a big sister to look out for him. But, I wondered who will look out for this girl? Who will make sure that she is safe? Who will encourage her to pursue her love of reading?
I don't know the answer to these questions. But, I do know as people of faith that it matters that we show up every month to bring a hot meal, a smile and a book to children who live in that neighborhood. Last month, we served 75 children. This encounter reminds me of the good work we are doing. And, we can't do it without your help.
We are grateful to everyone who donates to Social Justice to help us buy the ingredients for our monthly meal at Holy Rosary and St. Stephen's. We are grateful to our team who shops, prepares, serves and cleans up meals with joy! We are grateful for our driver of the carpool! Thanks to our book lovers for donating books! We will bring them each month.
Sometimes it takes a big sister to make things happen! We also know that big sisters need help! Thanks to everyone at St. Patrick's who has love to share…

The cover photo shows a cool sophisticated blond, dripping with class but just a hint of mystery in the eyes, ready to step out into the film noir streets of 1940s L.A.
Meet Kordula Polenek, one of Hollywood's true legends, Kordee, as everyone calls her, retired from 20th Century Fox after 58 years – longer than anyone, having started during World War II in 1944. Kordee also happens to be a longstanding member whose wisdom has had a profound effect on the way we do things here at First Entertainment.
Her story reads like a screenplay.
She was born in Topeka, Kansas. Like most girls her age, she had on her bedroom wall framed pictures of her favorite movie stars: Mae West and, of course, Clark Gable. But while others would only dream of Hollywood, Kordee would live it.
Early on, she showed a knack for business and management. By the time Kordee was a young woman, before the journey to Hollywood, Kordee was employed by the largest savings and loan in Kansas, where she came to appreciate the value of a personal and understanding financial institution.
In 1944, Kordee made her way west and began her career at Fox. Her path took many turns – each of them upwards. Kordee started in the Screen Test Department, then Makeup and Hairstyling, head of Wardrobe, then to Facilities Division as Administrator of the Department from which she retired in 2002. Until her retirement, Kordee kept track of the comings and goings of everybody and was responsible for a billion square feet of office space at the studio and in New York City.
With such a visible position at a major studio, Kordee mingled with all the greats. Golf as a guest of Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall, chatting at her desk with Victor Mature, posing with Lucille Ball, schmoozing with Judy Garland, passing gardening tips to Doris Day, having a young Marlon Brando offer a stick of gum.
She recalls May 19, 1962, the day Marilyn Monroe was rushed into the studio quite unexpectedly, excited to get her hair and makeup done to board the helicopter landing in afield on the lot (no helipad then) to take her to the airport to attend President Kennedy's birthday party, where she would sing him "Happy Birthday" and create one of the most lasting images of our time.
While she was at Fox, Kordee performed in dramatic and musical presentations on the lot, appearing alongside Marilyn Monroe in "Strictly for Kicks." An outside arena was built instead of using the stage on the lot because Darryl Zanuck would be attending.
Her involvement with credit unions began as soon as she started at Fox. Kordee had heard that the Fox Credit Union Board was looking for someone to take the minutes of the meetings. That's where she started –as Secretary on the Executive Board. In those days, females definitely had their place in business; she was one of only two females on the Board. But as time went on Kordee rewrote the rules. She climbed to Vice President, then became the first woman Chairman of the Board. And by that time, the majority of the Board were qualified women.
In 1978, Kordee was elected President of the newly established Women's Council (for assertiveness training) at Fox. Later it became known as The Fox Force when men were encouraged to join.
In 1979, the Vice Presidents of Fox were asked to nominate women in the company who had made an exceptional contribution. Kordee was selected for the Woman of Achievement Award.
In 1995, Kordee finally left the Fox Credit Union, only to join First Entertainment's Supervisory Committee, where she served from 1996-2004. Her years of experience and her profound understanding of "show" people were an enormous help. Her ideas still resonate in everything we do.
It's an incredible record: 35 years volunteering to help others make the most of their money. But credit unions are just one of her favorite volunteer projects. She was an early volunteer at the UCLA Hospital Emergency Room and Gift Shop, and served as President of Volunteers at L.A. County Psychiatric Hospital.
She is truly one of a kind. Army Archard, in his Daily Variety column of August 19, 1999, mentioned Kordee's 55th Anniversary with Fox when the studio hung a banner across the front entrance of the lot to congratulate her. Rupert Murdoch himself took the time to thank Kordee and wish her well.
Kordee, all of us at First Entertainment would like to share those sentiments. With your star quality of insight and wisdom, you have left a lasting imprint on our credit union.

The Yellow Wallpaper
The paint and paper look as if a boys' school had used it. It is stripped off--the paper--in great patches all around the head of my bed, about as far as I can reach, and in a great place on the other side of the room low down. I never saw a worse paper in my life. . . The color is repellant, almost revolting; a smouldering unclean yellow, strangely faded by the slow-turning sunlight.
So go two early paragraphs in Charlotte Perkins Gilman's chilling and fascninating short story, "The Yellow Wallpaper." I read this story to my 11th grade American lit students today (we're looking at short story writers in the late 1800s). I love reading this work aloud. As the story progresses, students stop fidgeting and become fixated on the tale of a woman who is being treated with a "rest-cure" for depression, who is isolated in a room to prevent undue excitement, who slowly becomes obsessed with the yellow paper on the walls. She is a woman who is slowly losing her mind. And since Gilman employs the woman as a first-person narrator, we as readers feel as though we're being dragged down with her.
My students had plenty of observations when we finished. Since the woman's an unreliable narrator, how much of her story can we trust? Is she really in a former nursery? At what point does she truly lose touch with reality?
I look forward to this story every year. And once again, I was glad that yet another class found this story disturbing and delightful.

There's the vile smell of dead mouse in the house. It's emanating from somewhere in the kitchen but has no respect for boundaries. Inexplicably, it's particularly stomach churning by the front door and there's a strong nauseating waft of it every time I approach the top of the cellar stairs with my arms laden with clean laundry.
Husband says there's no point pulling the kitchen to pieces to look for it. We tried last time and had to give up concluding that the poor creature met its demise behind the fridge. It's warm and completely inaccessible there because the knackered old fridge is built in to the cupboards in classic eighties style (don't get me started). I'd like to look under the food cupboard where we found mouse droppings last winter but that too is screwed down. Husband says there's no point looking at all. We should just give up and put up with it until it goes away.
"Living with this smell is child abuse," says Eldest, "and unhygienic. You shouldn't make us eat in this kitchen." He has a point. I take to leaving the back door open as much as possible, even when it's freezing. I buy pots and pots of hyacinths to try and drown it out. I boil up strange medieval-style concoctions involving honey, lemon and vanilla pods and leave them by the front door so they're the first thing the children smell when they come in from school. Friends begin to give our house a wide birth. Husband's weekend jogging companion declines the invitation to wait in the hall. Lovely Friend over the road refers to it as "your dead rat." It goes on and on.
I moan about it to everyone. I write about it on Facebook. The smell evolves. It morphs from rancid rotting manure, to high old fruit and nappies. It is our constant companion. It seeps everywhere. It contaminates everything. It makes me loathe the house. The days turn into weeks. By the middle of week three I crack. "It's definitely under there! under the food cupboard! Unscrew the base! Now."
"Now?" says Husband incredulously. It's evening. He has only just plonked himself down on a comfy chair in the living room.
"Yes. This minute! Get the screwdriver. I think it's under there!"
Reluctantly he abandons his slump. He comes into the kitchen and immediately and effortlessly lifts the bottom of the cupboard out. It wasn't screwed down.
"It wasn't screwed down!" I yell.
"No, I didn't screw it back last time," he replies, while shining the torch underneath.
I wait. He makes a sound. It is something between a gasp, a sigh and a cough but it is also unmistakably the sound of someone coming across the remains of a very decomposed mouse. It took him seconds to find it. I could kill him. Or I could laugh hysterically.
Which would you do?

The balloon vine is a perennial plant from tropical Africa, Asia and America and was indigenous in the Bermudas, Florida and Texas. It is a climber and uses tendrils to reach the top of whatever it is growing on and often blankets vegetation completely. It has light green compound leaves and small white flowers that are produced throughout most of the year.
Its most distinguishing feature is its fruit which is a green thin-walled, papery, inflated capsule that resembles a ribbed balloon which contains three black seeds. These capsules can be carried by wing and float on water.
The balloon vine, known in Maltese as sfineġ, was introduced in Malta as a decorative plant because of its fruit. It now grows in the Maltese countryside and although it is not very common wherever it sets a foothold it grows aggressively covering trees and bushes and whatever is in the vicinity.
It is now found in many parts of the world and is considered as an invasive species in many areas and action is taken to remove or control it.
This species belongs to a genus of plants known as Cardiospermum. This name which means "heart seed", refers to the plant's pea-sized dark brown seeds which bear a typical white, heart-shaped spot on their surface and in fact members of this genus are also known as love in a puff, heartseed or heartseed vine.
Native Amazonians string balloon vine seeds into armbands that are worn to ward off snakes
In Indian herbal medicine, balloon vine root is used to bring on delayed menstruation and to relieve backache and arthritis. Balloon vines are not traditionally known for their medicinal properties in the western world but in more recent times extracts from their seeds are included in skin creams that claim to treat eczema and other skin condition. The leaves are believed to stimulate local circulation and are applied to painful joints to help speed the clearing of toxins. The seeds are also thought to help in the treatment of arthritis. The plant as a whole has sedative properties.

TRAC recently completed over $5 million in renovations and upgrades in a very tight schedule of 8 weeks to meet the deadline for teachers to get ready for students to attend school this week. The timeline to complete this project was very tight and could not have been done had it not been for the great team at TRAC, especially Rick Amaral, Project Manager; Mike DiNobile, General Superintendent, and Mike Iarossi, Superintendant and their crews who worked tirelessly to make this project a success. Congrats on a job well done team!
Phil Auger, PHD Superintendent of the North Kingstown Public Schools recently sent this letter to our team and others involved in the project to thank them for a great job. Thanks for such nice words Mr. Auger, we appreciate it when a great project team works hard together!
"Thankfully, all schools are off to a great start today. I want to express my gratitude to NKSD Director of Administration, North Kingstown Director of Department of Public Works, Jim Partridge, Architect, Edward Rowse Architects, NKSD Facilities Supervisor, the NKSD Facilities Sub-Committee, and the excellent crews of TRAC Builders, NKSD Maintenance and Technology departments, NKSD Food Service Manager, and our GCA Services Custodians for their hard work and dedication to complete an enormous amount of work in such a short period of time. With over $5M worth of upgrades taking place in six of our schools, this was by no means a simple job, but our team pulled together well to complete the work to very high quality standards in time for the opening of school.
We have so much to be grateful for in NK Schools, not the least of which are these newly renovated buildings and the hardworking people who have done such magnificent work to get our year started so well and on time.
Thank you all for the great work!"
Phil Auger, Ph.D., Superintendent of North Kingstown Public Schools

|apxs "DEFS"
|Sun, 13 Mar 2011 23:44:24 GMT
I hope it is okay to be asking questions about apxs here. In the makefile created by apxs, there is the following: # additional defines, includes and libraries #DEFS=-Dmy_define=my_value AFAICT, uncommenting this and using "DEFS" to add a define does not do anything -- it does not even appear in the call to libtool, etc. Has anyone else noticed this? So I have been using the command line instead: apxs -D myvar=myvalue which does work. However, I need to keep the shell away from certain characters (such as '/') in the value by single quoting the assignment, which with gcc would look like this: gcc -D'myvar="/some/path"' However, it can't be done with apxs :( Anyone know of a work around? -- "Enthusiasm is not the enemy of the intellect."
