Lurbinectedin activity shown in metastatic breast cancer
medwireNews: Lurbinectedin, a selective inhibitor of active transcription of protein-coding genes, has promising activity in patients with BRCA1/2-mutated metastatic breast cancer, phase II study data show.
The efficacy was particularly good in women with BRCA2 mutations suggesting that "[a]dditional clinical development in this subset of patients […] is warranted," Judith Balamaña (Vall d'Hebron Institute of Oncology, Barcelona, Spain) and co-investigators remark.
The researchers found that the objective response rate (ORR) to lurbinectedin (7 mg flat dose or 3.5 mg/m2) was 41% in the 54 women they studied. This included two complete responses and 20 partial responses, with a median response duration of 6.1 months.
The disease control rate was 83%, while the median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) times were 4.6 and 20.0 months, respectively.
When the researchers separated the patients by BRCA mutation type, they found that the ORR was 61% among women with BRCA2 mutations (n=23). This increased to 72% and 71% without prior PARP inhibitor and platinum therapy, respectively.
Median PFS and OS durations among the women with BRCA2 mutations were 5.9 and 26.6 months, respectively.
By comparison, women with BRCA1 mutations had an ORR of 26%, a median PFS of 3.0 months, and a median OS of 15.9 months.
Balamaña et al say: "The reasons for the different efficacy of lurbinectedin in BRCA2 versus BRCA1 disease are under investigation."
A separate analysis of 35 unselected patients with BRCA1/2 wild-type or unknown status, who all received lurbinectedin at the flat dose of 7 mg, showed reduced efficacy in this group. The ORR was 9.0%, while PFS and OS were a median of 2.5 and 12.5 months, respectively.
All 89 patients were evaluated for safety, and the most commonly reported nonhematologic adverse events were fatigue and nausea, each experienced by between 57% and 91% of patients.
Neutropenia and thrombocytopenia were the most common hematologic adverse events, but the researchers note that the rate of grade 4 events in each of these classes fell substantially when lurbinectedin was adjusted from the 7 mg fixed-dose to 3.5 mg/m2. Specifically, the rate of grade 4 neutropenia fell from 51% to 10%, while grade 4 thrombocytopenia fell from 26% to 0%.
Balamaña and team also carried out a translational substudy to assess the potential mechanisms of lurbinectedin resistance.
In this analysis, whole exome sequencing showed "no secondary BRCA1/2 mutations in either primary or acquired resistance," but identified mutations in genes involved in the nucleotide excision repair pathway in tumors from four of seven patients with primary or acquired resistance and in one patient with short-term stable disease.
The study findings are published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology.

Commission hopes to cut infrastructure charges before 2016
Aggressive timetable outlined for reassessment of infrastructure capital charges
Infrastructure could be treated as a discrete asset class under Solvency II and split into tiers with different levels of capital charges, according to Klaus Wiedner, head of the insurance and pensions unit at the European Commission (EC).
The commission hopes to make a decision on the revised treatment for infrastructure under the directive before it goes live on January 1, 2016, he told Risk.net.

The million-dollar question.
I was telling someone the other day about my upcoming travel to Uganda for work. The early parts of the conversation consisted of standard questions that I've answered countless times at this point. When are you leaving? [End of August]. Are you excited? [Absolutely]. Are you scared? [Not really]. How long will you be gone? [Not sure but probably a long time].
The conversation got more interesting when we started discussing the conditions in which I will be living. As I explained that I am traveling to a remote part of the country where I will not have constant access to electricity, running water, and Internet among other things, this person, who I will refer to as Mike, starting laughing really hard.
"Caesar, I gotta say this." Uh-oh. "You are young [true], you have a great education ['ray Bucknell], you are intelligent [thanks], you live a decent life [agreed], and you have access to all the opportunities available here in America [questionable]. Why would you give all that up for the kind of place you are going?"
Frankly, I thought this was a very good question. All the statements connected to it were correct. And if I'm being completely honest, I've asked myself that same question many times. Here is my response to Mike and anyone else who has this question…
The major driving force in my life right now is the desire to change lives. It's what I'm passionate about. I am on a hunt for opportunities to create things (products, businesses, institutions, etc.) that transform the way people live. I am returning home to Mama Africa because I believe she will present me with more opportunities to pursue this passion. I am not as concerned about the living conditions that await me as I am about the people who have to endure them on a daily basis. They deserve better and I feel blessed to have the opportunity to help them get what they deserve through the work I am doing.
Another thing to keep in mind is that returning to the motherland is not an idea that popped into my head overnight. I spent the first 17 years of my life in Ghana and loved it there – well, most of it. I came to America primarily to get an education that will empower me to return home and contribute to my country's growth and development. This dream has been modified in two key ways since I arrived in America. First, I decided to expand the scope of my work beyond Ghana to cover as much of Africa as possible – and potentially other parts of the world. Secondly, I decided not to focus solely on healthcare but to work more broadly towards the improvement of health, the support of education, and the alleviation of poverty. These modifications have not changed the dream itself. Rather, they have clarified the dream and given me a deeper commitment to achieving it.
The morning after I had this conversation with Mike, I came across a Bible verse that reminded me of the source of my desire and motivation to change lives. The verse is found in Philippians 2:3-4 and it reads: "Instead of being motivated by selfish ambition or vanity, each of you should, in humility, be moved to treat one another as more important than yourself. Each of you should be concerned not only about your own interests, but about the interests of others as well." I feel called, and have chosen, to build a career out of obedience to these oh-so-beautiful instructions.
This will have to suffice as an answer to this question for now. I'm excited about this journey and I invite all who are willing, to come along with me!

"Photoshop Lightroom 2.0 beta provides early access to requested improvements over version 1.3 and continues our ongoing dialogue and open communication with the photography community," said Tom Hogarty, senior product manager for Photoshop Lightroom and Camera Raw. "We're excited not only for our existing customers, but also for the general public who will have an opportunity to take Lightroom 2.0 beta on a test run."
New in Lightroom 2.0 beta
An improved layout in the Library module allows for a more intuitive approach to image organization by simplifying the location of the features needed to find and filter photographs. A new feature called Smart Collections automatically updates collections with images that match desired criteria such as star-rating, keyword or other metadata.
"The Suggested Keywords feature eases the task of keywording by making recommendations based upon keyword associations across a catalog as well as the use of keywords in neighboring images."
Photoshop Lightroom 2.0 beta includes improved memory handling through 64-bit support for OS X 10.5 Intel Macs and Vista 64-bit operating systems. Additional enhancements in Lightroom 2.0 beta include support for a dual monitor configuration that maximizes a photographer's workspace and can be easily adjusted to meet a particular workflow. Additionally, the Develop module has been updated to provide the ability to correct specific parts of an image without affecting other areas. Now, fundamental photographic techniques such as dodge and burn can be performed using the same non-destructive approach, allowing unprecedented control within the Lightroom program.
Beta Availability
Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2.0 beta is available as a 30-day trial for free download on Macintosh and Windows platforms
at http://www.labs.adobe.com/downloads. Existing Lightroom 1.0 customers will be able to test the beta for an extended period until Aug. 31, 2008 and can invite friends to take part in this trial period. Recommended system requirements are Macintosh OSX 10.4, 10.5 1 GHz PowerPC G4 or G5 or Intel-based processor, or Microsoft Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista Home Premium, Business, Ultimate, or Enterprise, Intel Pentium 4 processor, 1 GBRAM and a 1024×768 resolution screen.

- Yellow flowers each have 13 petals and look like small daisies about the size of a nickel.
- Flowers mature into white thistle balls
- Native to Madagascar, introduction history in Hawaii unknown. Discovered in the early 1980s in pastures in Kohala on the Big Island, New populations introduced to Kauai and Oahu in contaminated hydromulch (groundcover seeds) from Australia, where it is also invasive
- Each flower can produce 150 seeds, each plant can produce 30,000 seeds per year that spread by wind, hiking boots, vehicles or by animals when moved from infested to non-infested areas
- Invades pastures, disturbed areas and roadsides
- Toxic to livestock when eaten, it causes slow growth, illness, liver-malfunction and even death in severe cases.
- One of the top 10 weeds of Western Australia where costs to the cattle industry and the Australian government exceed $2 million per year
In Hawaii:
- Kauai – One known infestation from the hydromulched area near Halfway Bridge. KISC is assisting HDOA in controlling this population.
- Oahu – Historically there have been several populations ranging from Kunia to Mana. All have since been removed and are monitored by HDOA, OISC, and Oahu Army Natural Resources Program.
- Maui – Large infestations in pastures and along roadsides from Makawao to Ulupalakua.

Unprecedented numbers of free meals have been given out to children in deprived areas this half term in an ongoing effort to combat hunger in the UK.
It comes as an all party Parliamentary group has ordered an inquiry to establish why so many British children are going hungry in the holidays.
Demand for free food at lunch clubs has steadily increased since the start of austerity and now organisations such as Make Lunch, which runs 64 projects across the UK, says many of its kitchens have had the busiest ever February half term.
There is often no provision during school holidays for children who qualify for free school meals during term time.
Sky News joined the Make Lunch project at St Luke's in Barton Hill, Bristol, where they served 50 children on the two days they were able to open this half term - the free service has a waiting list of children who can't get in.
Youth worker Ria Harding, who helped cook and serve dozens of hot meals, told Sky News: "It's insane that we can't feed everyone who wants it."
She says the Make Lunch project just deals with primary school aged children - but there is also a need to help older children.
Organiser and volunteer Emma Stafford told Sky News: "This is the most we have ever served - there are lots of reasons why people need us and we don't judge people.
"Often it is a private thing for them - we are just here to help and get families through the half term."
Research by YouGov has previously showed that almost a third of parents on lower incomes in the UK have skipped a meal in the school holidays so their children could eat properly.
In January, the Welsh Government announced £500,000 funding per year to tackle the issue through lunch and fun clubs. The Scottish Government is also looking seriously at how it can address the issue but there is still no co-ordinated Government effort to tackle holiday hunger in England.
Child food poverty policy adviser Lindsay Graham, who has examined the issue in different parts of the world, told Sky News: "It's just a moral outrage that we haven't done anything about this on a UK level.
"There has to date been no Westminster government support for families and children on this issue, no national programme, no helpline, no benefit, no policy or funding."
There are many good projects and initiatives around the country - some of which will be asked to contribute to a new inquiry announced in Westminster this week.
Frank Field MP, who chairs the All Party Parliamentary Group on Hunger, said: "Clearly for some children, though, the overriding priority during the school holidays is to find out where their next meal is coming from, or how they will be able to afford more than a fizzy drink and a packet of sweets each day.
"We are now on the lookout for national solutions that can be driven by local communities with support from the Government, businesses and charities to ensure no child goes hungry in the holidays."

Why Embracing Community Matters
Erica Burgos joined me on the first ever faith feast serves day. I asked her to write about her experience and this is what she had to say:
When I first heard that the Faith Feast was organizing a volunteer day, I immediately signed up. I've wanted to get more involved in the community and using my time to help feed those in need seemed like a great way to give back.
After arriving at the food bank, the Faith Feast ladies and I were placed on the produce team. We were told to make bags with all the good pears while separating out and discarding the misunderstoodpears. We all took our places, lined up on opposite sides of long commercial equipment stands and began sorting pears while 90's hits blasted in background. Two and a half hours later, after dozens of volunteers had finished their assigned tasks, we were then informed that our hard work had produced over 25,000 meals for families in need! As incredible as that feat was, as I look back on that day, I am reminded that although I was doing something to bless others, I was blessed in the process. Without even realizing it, I had not only become part of a larger community of volunteers but I'd also become part of a community of women who lived their faith without hesitation.
Just like those pears we were asked to separate out, I too have often felt misunderstood. In high school, friendships came easy but as time went on, I have found it difficult to cultivate the kind of lasting friendships my soul was longing for. A part of me started to doubt whether I was even supposed to establish those relationships that so many others seemed to have found. But I was reminded that God has always intended for us to be in community with others.
"Remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigners to the promise. But now in Christ, you who once were far away have been brought near." Ephesians 2:12
"Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with God's people. In him the whole building is joined together. And in him you too are being built together." - Ephesians 2:19-22
That morning, I was bearing witness to God's intentions as He surrounded me with people who truly wanted to know me. In working along side this incredibly diverse group of women, hearing about their struggles, their hopes, and their dreams, I recognized that they too, had prayed for togetherness, prayed for the opportunity to minister to others, and prayed to find understanding in those who also felt misunderstood.
That day I realized that God was not ignoring my desire for meaningful relationships, He was just answering in ways I didn't quite expect. These ladies may not be people I speak to on a daily basis- we don't have slumber parties or escape on a girls' weekend together but they are women who will ask me the tough questions. They are women who know the Word, who will speak the Truth in love, and who will pray on my behalf even when I don't ask for it. We may not be sharing in every moment of each other's lives but we are sharing in a mission to love others as God has loved us. I've often heard that God doesn't promise that this life is going to be easy but He does provides people who will help us carry our burdens.
It is in these seemingly small interactions we have with those that God puts in our lives, these people who may not be who we thought they were, who will help make us into who we are called to be.
"Carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ." Galatians 6:2

According to Vanguard's latest annual index chart, US shares performed best, yielding 10.6 per cent, while cash performed worst with just 6.1 per cent.
However, these figures are only the start of the story, Vanguard head of corporate affairs Robin Bowerman said.
"One of the key lessons of this chart is that taking a long-term perspective and investing in a range of broad market indices gives investors a great chance of investing success," he said.
"While it is tempting to focus on the top performing asset class, it does not provide much more than an interesting fact about a moment in time as, each year that we review these numbers, the ranking of each asset class varies."
Mr Bowerman said individual asset classes will have bumpy rides, making it difficult for investors to pick out "next year's winner".
Given this, investors are best served by broad diversification for long-term investment.
"We believe that a successful investment strategy starts with an asset allocation suitable for its objective," he explained.
"In practice, diversification is a rigorously tested application of common sense [given that] markets will often behave differently from each other – sometimes marginally, sometimes greatly – at any given time.
"When you compare the growth in individual asset classes to a long-term investment in a balanced diversified fund (50/50 growth/income split) over a 20-year period, investors can expect a smoother ride thanks to a much more diversified portfolio, while maintaining a good return on investment in the portfolio."
Okay, I'm ready for the numbers!

Hi I'm Tommy Ros and I have been dancing for 5 years now. I am a hip hop dancer but I mainly breakdance. I am a new star staff and I only been here since last year and it was fun teaching and I'm here to share my experiences with everyone that are interested in breakdancing. I got inspired by a T.V show called ABDC (Americans best dance crew) I learned from YouTube and some good friends I made alone my journey. I'm a shy person but when it comes to dancing im like a whole new person because it brings fun energy from me. I always wanted to teach because I wanted to share the happiness in a dance move that you can learn I also love dancing freely like freestyleing that is what I also teach in my classes. Alone my journey I took a lot of dance classes so I just want the same feeling in what I have learned to others that just want to dance.

text: March 11, 2016 the season is over….the work continues March 11, 2016/ allison langer by allison langerit took a year, but we did it! the first full season of writing class radio is done!when andrea and i got the idea to do a podcast of our writing class, i said, "we have to show the world how great our students are. it'll be fun!"she said, "yeaaah! their stories are sad and deep and crazy. people need to hear this stuff!"we thought we'd throw together a few stories, follow the students through their lives and possibly learn a little about writing. boom...a show. i'm a photographer. andrea is a writer. notice, neither of us is a producer, audio technician, or radio person. we had no experience at all. what idiots, right?thanks to our consultant and wlrn wiz, wilson sayre, we devised a plan. we hired an audio producer, diego, rented a recording room for our class, and signed up 10 brave writing students.we began recording a year ago. the sound was mixed and the stories placed into scripts. the first four episodes appeared on our podcast in late october. people emailed to tell us how much they loved the show. friends stopped me at the gym and at parties to say they wanted more. we were winging it! gregory shepherd, dean of the university of miami school of communication, listened to our podcast and waived the fee for the recording room. they became our sponsor. my friend, catherine, loved the podcast so much, that she funded our first year. we hired someone very part time to help us with social media. we sponsored a few writing students who could not afford the class. we bought insurance and finally paid diego.thanks to the feedback we received, the episodes evolved from a bunch of stories thrown together to a real show with music and meaning and a real writing lesson. we love the way season one came together. we continue to speak with our advisors to improve and grow. season 2 will be packed with great stories, and original vocals by the mann sisters, ari herstand, chloe delandis, kevin myles wilson and our favs, astromaps. please help us move into the second season buy sharing our episodes with your friends and family and by making a donation to writing class radio on our website. diego deserves a raise for putting up with two crazy perfectionists with conflicting great ideas. and you deserve more writing class radio!

Building an interdisciplinary community of research around the learning sciences
The scientific objective of this seminar is to build reflection in France on the Sciences de l'apprendre, both by seeking inspiration within the Learning Sciences and by positioning French research in relation to it. The first part of our reflection stems from the observation that much of the research in cognitive science and cognitive psychology focuses on understanding and explaining learning.
Many of these studies, also oriented to educational science, center on teachers' professional practices. But the relations between teaching and learning are not as often studied, per se. In this perspective, we aim to systematically study these relations, through a variety of contexts and target domains, in both formal and informal teaching-learning situations.
We will establish a cartographic representation of models in relation to teaching and learning and we will review the analysis methods that show the effects of teaching on learning. We therefore aim to contribute to a paradigm of the Learning Sciences that not only includes reflecting on teaching and learning, but also reflection on creating the conditions for learning. The second part of our reflection will focus on Design-Based Research Methods or Didactical Engineering, methods that are naturally centered on the conditions necessary for learning and the relations between teaching and learning. This focus presupposes a closer look at technologies and how their integration in a pedagogical context influences learning.
One of our directions of investigation will explore to what extent the measure of learning and the comprehension and explanation of conditions for learning requires a mixed-methods approach, beyond and above the traditional opposition of qualitative and quantitative approaches. In the third part of our reflection, we will attempt to link a systematic description of the relations between teaching and learning to the study of how learning is dependent upon teaching. Evidence Based Research will aid us in this objective as it focuses on the effects of teaching on learning. Questioning Evidence Based Policy in this same way will give us a framework to reflect upon the relations between research, practice and educational policies.
Our seminar will be conducted in a highly interdisciplinary manner. As conditions for learning also depend upon socially constructed practices outside of educational contexts, we must reflect on how family practices can transform school practices and more generally, in what ways the socio-economic and cultural milieux (internet, video games, potentially educational social practices) contribute to educational practices.
This international Institut Français de l'Education seminar has therefore the ambition to contribute to enriching the current paradigms for the Learning Sciences. We aim to create an international venue for pioneering research focusing on creating the conditions for learning and teaching. This seminar is principally aimed at experienced researchers and requires their active participation, but also concerns doctoral students and early career researchers. In this way, we aim to also contribute to building an interdisciplinary community of researchers around the Learning Sciences

I love working in coffee shops. There is something about the chatter, the aroma, the setting, the coffee, and the general ambience. Howard Schultz, CEO of Starbucks, has been successful in his attempt to create a third place for people to go meet, connect and work, and this has trickled down to coffee shops of all types.
Yesterday, I was working in one of those hipster, third wave, coffee shops, and no... I was wasn't working on growing out my beard. Depending on the place, and the vibe of the room, I often like to work without headphones. There is something soothing about the gentle roar of non-descript voices chattering away. I find the white noise acts a platform for my creativity, where music for me, at times, can become a distraction in and of itself.
While quietly plodding away, gleefully typing away, one voice began to stand out above the buzz of the room. I was sitting at the window, at a countertop looking outside, with my back to the room, but I could this voice rising from a table just over my right shoulder. I noticed that I as I was writing, I started to get bogged down, and my energy and inspiration seemed to vanish right into thin air.
The chatter over my shoulder began to soak the atmosphere of the room, it was even more palpable than the aroma of freshly ground coffee.
In 5 short minutes, I was now intimately aware of every bad interaction in this persons life. I was aware of what felt like every offense, every underhanded remark, every personal slight, I became keenly aware, that apparently, every person on the entire earth was out to get her, and if they weren't out to get her directly, then they had in some way, shape, or form, deeply offended her.
I grabbed my bag, slid my laptop into it's appropriate pouch and got out of there as quickly as possible. I had reached my threshold, and could not take it for even one more moment. I wasn't eavesdropping, I wasn't trying to pay attention, but the frequency and the fervency in this individuals voice had overcome the chatter of a packed cafe and now found its way into my soul. I didn't leave because I was angry or offended. I left because I could no longer create. My ideas dried up, my words lacked life, and I was literally just fulfilling a word count, suffering through the incessant onslaught of negativity.
I jumped into my car and head to another location, taking a quick walk to clear my thoughts. Within 5 minutes of leaving that environment, the ideas started flowing again, fast and freely, just as they had before that voice rose above the crowd.
There are times when you can push through, and there are times when you just need to get up and leave..... and I am not just talking about a coffee shop.

Have you ever had that feeling of your brain being empty? That your head is just an endless fog? That thinking almost isn't any option? That you try to think but, its nothing there, no words, no logic, no thoughts, no visuals, just pure nothingness?
Let me tell you, its not a comfortable self boosting feeling. It rather starts touching the button of self doubt and self worth. Yes we all go through various fases in our head, but I think having a well-functionfing brain is crucial for well being, a brain which works like its drugged down and also with dementia might be one of the worst states and what am I without my thoughts? Identity; gone, feeling of self; gone. Self-destructed, yes. You have a house but no one is home.
Going to work in this state is rather difficult, am I of value? Do I even have anything to add to the table?
I guess we all go through weird times in our lives where we not feel as ourselves. It's certainly not fun but I guess its an interesting experience to have, necessary perhaps. And I know a worse state of mind is a self-destructing one with negative patterns, high speed mental craziness. A mind that tortures you for every action you do! When you can not relax, and you feel so stressed that you can even feel your cells being stressed too. That is worse. When your mind become a prison. A prison you can not escape.
Grace. Gratitude.
What helps in these kinds of states is to push yourself to do stuff even though you don't want to. Read, write, solve math problems, talk to people, something just to force you to think hard.
It might be difficult to begin with, but believe me, it will help you moving forwards.

I bought a punnet of blueberries over the weekend and knew I wanted to make financiers with them. I had seen a recipe for Blueberry & Lavender Ice-cream on Pretty Prudent and earmarked the flavour combo to try out at some point in the future. Today was the future!
Financiers are really quite simple to make as you don't need anything other than a bowl and spoon, which means they are the perfect afternoon baking project to involve your little ones in on too. They are a french cake known for its simplicity (and almond flavour).
I adapted the recipe from Sweets by Sillianah and made the financiers Gluten-Free by using polenta in place of flour and I added the lavender seeds instead of vanilla. Financiers are traditionally baked in small rectangular molds (which resemble bars of gold, hence the term financiers...) but as I do not have such molds, mine were baked in my 6-mini-cheesecake pan instead.
1 cup almond meal/ground almond
1 2/3 cups icing sugar
1/2 cup polenta
1 t lavender
5-6 egg whites
6oz melted butter
1 cup fresh blueberries
1. Combine all ingredients well, stirring with a wooden spoon. (This is quite a departure from my usual methods isn't it...).
2. Prepare baking molds by spreading melted butter around the base and edges.
3. Pour batter into molds and bake on 450F/230C for 7 minutes until the edges start to brown a little, and then turn the oven down to 400F/205C and bake for another 7 minutes.
4. When they are golden brown on top, let them cool in their tins for another 7 minutes.
Serve either warm or cool, but it is best to serve them on the day they are made due to the polenta. The polenta adds a crispness to the financiers that would be otherwise lacking, but obviously means that the cakes will not rise as much as if you were to use self-raising flour. The lavender gives a subtle flavour differential that compliments the blueberries perfectly.
I served this with a dollop of cream cheese icing, which was made by combing cream cheese, butter and icing sugar. The cream cheese icing helped to keep each bite moist and sweet, and was the perfect side dollop!!
Even for a NON-GF cake, these are delicious!! You know how sometimes you are eating gluten free with "regular" folk and you just know that they aren't enjoying it quite as they would as if it were light and fluffy, well this cake isn't meant to be, and so what makes it GF is actually its main strengths! And as they only took such a short amount of time to make, these would be a perfect little treat after a dinner party as they look and taste so impressive!

The Essential...
A long-time used and essential pedal! This is a 2005, Ibanez TS808 hand-wired Tube Screamer (RI).
No explanation needed. What a machine!
Electro-Harmonix Vintage Mini QTron
The newest addition to the floor for me - a vintage (late 80's/mid 90's) Electro-Harmonix mini QTron.
I was inspired to get the Q when playing in one of NYC's (many) Grateful Dead-groups called "Forever Grateful". The Q, or quack, on this pedal really gives it some range from a sound like Garcia's tone on an "Estimated Prophet" or even some funkier sounds resembling the Disco and Funk eras of the mid-late 1970's. Both the drive and mode (HP, BP, LP) all open some killer sounds!
Amoreena - 2008 Ibanez AS-73
"Amoreena" - my 2008 Ibanez AS-73!
Ol Faithful!
Nothing beats a Fender Tweed! 1x12, Jensen.

The Solitary Bookworm opens its doors to Angela Scott who is the author of Desert Rice. I already read the book and recommend it. Read my review and you'll know why. 🙂 Let's give it up for Angela Scott!
Meeting Deadlines and Keeping your Sanity at the Same Time
I'm actually writing this post at the same time that I have two deadlines looming over my head. The first is for a short story to be included in a YA Anthology. The deadline is September 1st and I haven't even typed one word of it. The second is for my novel Survivor Roundup due to be released at the end of November, but to have that come to fruition I need to have it done and handed over to my editors by the first part of September as well. But…the book has no ending. I still need to write one. September is coming fast.
Ahhh, the joy of deadlines. They're a necessary evil. Without deadlines, nothing would ever get done. Because believe me, procrastinating is easy and writing a book is hard. I can easily find a million other things to do than actually sit down at my laptop and write, especially when the writing comes painfully slow. That's not fun. Youtube cat videos are fun.
Just the word DEADLINE sounds so…awful. I mean, it has the word dead in it. That can't be good.
For me, it's all about attitude. If we look at deadlines as evil and impossible to meet, we will begin to begrudge them and we won't perform to our best ability, ultimately leading us to miss the deadline. So instead of looking at it as a foe, we need view deadlines differently. We don't want to take them lightly, defiantly not, but if we can change our attitude, embrace the deadline as a friend, or a helper, then the whole idea of a deadline becomes easier.
Because what are deadlines for anyway? To help us achieve our goals and attain our dreams. Maybe we should change the name from DEADLINE to GOAL LINE. Doesn't that sound better?
Some tips to meet the goal line:
- Embrace it, but in that process make sure it's realistic. Most often times deadlines are broken because we didn't block out enough time or provide ourselves with a buffer to account for mistakes that will happen or problems that may pop up. An insane deadline WILL make you insane. That is a given. Don't do that to yourself.
- Break your project down into smaller steps with smaller goal lines. If the whole novel is to be complete by say, September 1st, then do little bite size chunks between now and then, whatever those goals may be—write 2,000 words a day for example. Like they say, Q: "How do you eat an elephant?" A: One bite at a time.
- Reward yourself. I love this tip. Pats on the back are nice, but a new purse or a pair of shoes is awesome! Do whatever it takes to meet those goals. You met your 2k for the day? Treat yourself to something special—an ice-cream, a movie, a walk in the park (always good to relax your mind and get your creative juices flowing). Rewards work great for little kids, but they work miracles for writers.
- Form a cheerleading group. Tell your friends and family about your deadline and have them help and encourage you to meet it. When you get your friends and family on board, it will be easier to miss a family function or turn down a lunch date. They will understand.
- Lastly, don't be so hard on yourself. Commit to your deadlines, but refuse to allow it to destroy you. So you missed the deadline, life happens, take a deep breath, review what happened, and then create a new goal line and try again. It's okay.
- Now I'm off to meet my goal lines. Wish me luck. I hope I write my 2k today because that new pair of pumps in the store window display is calling to me.
People who are following TSB already knows how giveaways are handled in TSB but for the benefit of our new friends – all you have to do to win a copy of Desert Rice is to fill out the form located in TSBs Facebook Page here (click click the link) and that's it! Good luck ya'll!

I have a friend. His life is tough, really tough. He went through some things I wouldn't want my greatest enemy to go through. He made mistakes, mistakes that participated to the sum of his life. But who hasn't? He is a good person, too good for his own good. And in life we live today such persons get punished for being good. Is being bad the solution?
He was in a happy long term relationship a couple of years ago. His girl got pregnant and they got married. He got a beautiful son. And he was happy. His, now wife, for some reason was not. But he, as a good guy he is, tried to be even nicer. He worked even harder to be the best provider. She demanded even more. He worked even more. Humans are miserable animals. We believe if we do the same thing harder, things will be better, but they won't. Change is what makes things better. He snapped. He got divorced. Splitting almost killed him because he loved and still loves (as of today) his now ex wife. He adores his kid. Who wouldn't? I love his kid. But a child needs a stable family. His will never have.
Family is always there for us. And we, children grown up, try to be for them. But there comes a point in life where life seems unfair and our loved ones go away. It is sad but normal part of life. We have to step in to help. But there is a void that, in order for life to feel normal again, needs to be filled. We try to become providers in stead of our fathers for our family. We start to be mentors in stead of our fathers to our siblings. We start to work harder. Humans are miserable animals. We believe if we do the same thing harder, things will be better, but they won't. Change is what does. We can't live other peoples' lives in stead of our own. This has nothing to do with selfishness but no father or mother would want our lives spent in name of theirs. Some voids have to be accepted and lived with.
He found love again. Like at the beginning of every relationship they played games. Games of courtship and getting to know the limits of other and relationship itself are a normal part of any beginning. But they couldn't stop. When their love was mature and it was clear to everyone they are crazy about each other, they were still driving each other mad by games and drama. She happens to love drama and he happens to love her. They were splitting and getting back together on numerous times. Humans are miserable animals. We believe by doing the same things harder, things will be better. Now, they are split apart for last time but still together. Guys when having tough times tend to run to places they were happy. To women. There is nothing like a warm and tender women's bosom that can calm a man. The same is leadership and decisiveness women seek in men. When there is missing, warmth turns to drama because there are no limits and women tend to test them. Always. Drama provides the same emotions as a decisive man – excitement.
Change is the only cure for solving problems. It is hard to change. It is easier to escape to moments of happiness (drinking, drugs, ignoring problems…) and, in the mean time, work harder on doing the same thing. Same thing we are so good at. Being miserable. We humans are miserable animals indeed.
I thought of finishing this article with last sentence. But that would be pathetic. There is a way to fight misery. Change. How? Start small. Remove or contain sources of misery. Set priorities. The moment a women is a number one priority, and she knows it (and she will) you become number two. Number one is everything else. Priorities – yourself (health, psychical and mental), family and friends then women. Don't think you can tackle all areas simultaneously. Start by priorities. First, change yourself by start living healthier – exercise and read books. You can't help others if you are a mess. Second, take care of your family and friends. When everything is settled attend to your women. Set her limits. She wants it. Don't be a jerk (no, being bad is not the solution), don't be a nice guy either. Find a middle, be a man who is a decisive leader. A masculine man. Don't sell yourself short for a pussy. If you tell me you love her more than yourself, your family and friends and you believe it deep down, you, my friend, will be miserable for the rest of your life. And sooner then later, you will be alone. Pathetic, bitter, broken and alone. Consider this as my final warning.

5 Things NOT to do on Your Wedding Day (and a few things you should)
Weddings are crazy busy days filled with lots of love and laughter. There are so many things you should being doing, but also a few things you shouldn't on your wedding day so that you can enjoy it. After all, you've been planning for so long, focusing on all of the million things that make up your day. So it's important that you have an amazing day. Here's my list of five things not to do on your wedding day, and a few to do to help you relax and remember it for many years to come.
If you had to follow one thing from this list, I want this to be it. I see so many couples not eat most of the day, especially their dinner. Have your Master and Mistress of Ceremony bring (healthy) snacks to where you are getting ready, and if you are having a limo or bus service make sure there are snacks and bottles of water brought along during travel for wedding party portraits.
Please listen to your body and its needs. Wedding days are long and draining on the body, so listen to what it needs to keep on going. Especially with using the restroom; make sure you go before putting your dress on and if there is any downtime take a bridesmaid (or two!) to help you. Buzzfeed did an awesome article on a few products to help going to the bathroom easier in a dress.
You do want to remember your wedding day right?
I use to work at a hotel and I remember seeing brides and grooms get dragged into their room because they were just beyond drunk, acting foolish and even some saying some pretty rude things about their new spouse. While I know this isn't every couple, especially couples who decide to have a dry wedding, but just be mindful and know your limit.
There is a time and a place for everything; something my parents use to tell me all the time as a child. There are times during the wedding day where it's okay to be on your phone, and there are times where it's really not. While you are getting ready, taking pictures with your bridal party is a perfect time to be on your phone. During your reception, especially while your new spouse is having a formal dance with their parent (Trust me, I've seen it) is not the right time to be on your phone. Is updating social media more important that your wedding or even more important than your spouse? For one day, don't worry about your phone, your friends can post all the pictures after the reception or even the next day.
I see this far too often, and it makes for an awkward moment for your vendors and others around you. Sometimes parents and members of your bridal party, despite the best of intentions, can ask a lot of questions or interrupt frequently. They are just trying to do their best to make sure everything leading up to the ceremony and reception runs smoothly. I've even seen siblings that are in the wedding party snap at parents and even vendors for these same reasons. Remember, not everything works the way it's written on paper. Take a deep breath, and have someone in the bridal party look into the issue. It can be as simple as calling the florist, or having the venue move a specific table that's not in the right place.
I've also seen couples argue on their wedding day because something didn't go right. It's your big day, let it go and have someone take care of it for you. Mistakes and accidents happen but it's not reason to cause a scene and make it uncomfortable for those around you.
TIP: Have separate labeled boxes for items going to the ceremony, reception and with you getting ready. The day before the wedding, double check to make sure everything you need is in the right place and designate one person to take these boxes where they need to go. This way, nothing gets misplaced being in multiple bags and the items are at the locations they need to be.
Weddings are rarely on time, even with a wedding coordinator. Traffic jams, hair and makeup running late and even just losing track of time; it happens. Don't stress about everything being perfect and to schedule and just go with the flow of the day! At the end of the day you're still getting married, and everyone is there to celebrate you.
Now you know a few things you shouldn't do on your wedding day, here are two things you should.
Your wedding day is a celebration of you and your significant other; every guest that is at the wedding is there to support and congratulate you. All the planning and time spent in preparation is over, enjoy yourself and the company of everyone around you. Live in the moment and be in the moment, create memories that you will remember for a lifetime.
This is one thing I try to have my couples work into their timelines. Just a few minutes alone together, not even with the photographer. You need a moment to breathe and a moment to spend with each other without all the hustle and bustle around you. I've had couples who have done this after their first look, just to help calm each other's nerves before the ceremony and being the center of attention for the rest of the day.

Our plates are made of natural bamboo and therefore they cannot be put in the dishwasher or microwave. Simply wash with soapy water and towel dry before placing vertically on a dish rack to air dry. To remove tough stains, use some baking soda and vinegar on the stain and rub gently in a circular motion until the stain is gone and then rinse as normal.
Rub a lemon slice with coarse salt on your products once a month to refresh it before treating it with fractionated coconut oil.
Why fractionated coconut oil?
Fractionated Coconut Oil is so-called because long-chain triglycerides are extracted from a small fraction of the coconut oil, leaving it with mostly medium-chain triglycerides. This makes it an oil with a heavy saturation level, which is what gives coconut oil its lengthy shelf life and stability.
The heavy concentration of capric and caprylic acids also gives Fractionated Coconut Oil its strong disinfectant and anti-oxidant characteristics.
Please do not use normal coconut oil on your plates or it will go rancid.
Fractionated coconut oil can be also used for a number of purposes, including hair care products, soaps, lotions and cosmetics, as a carrier oil in aromatherapy and in massage therapy. FRACTIONATED coconut oil is an excellent medium for seasoning cast iron pans, cutting boards and our bamboo plates too. Rubbing fractionated coconut oil onto our bamboo plates and cutting boards will keep them nicely protected and you won't have any problems with unwanted coconut flavour or smell.

Littlehampton Bonfire Society has issued a reminder that rubbish should not be deposited on the bonfire site at the East Green car park before Monday, October 24.
People are also urged to act responsibly regarding the materials they bring to the fire, which will be lit on October 29.
Society secretary Richard Cooper said: "We have permission to commence building the fire on Monday, October 24. Anyone dumping rubbish on the site prior to this will be acting illegally, and will face prosecution.
"Only non - toxic, combustible items such as wood and garden waste may be deposited. On no account may polystyrene foam, polyurethane foam, aerosols, batteries, bottles, tins of paint, tyres or containers of any liquids be brought to the site. We must also stress that we cannot accept any beds, settees, armchairs or carpets at all. We hope the public will take note of what they can and can't bring, as we will turn away any prohibited items, and they will have had a wasted trip."
Material may be brought to the fire between the 9am and 5pm each day from October 24 to October 27, although the site may be closed earlier in the week, depending on the size of the fire.
The society is also appealing for volunteers to help build the fire. Help is needed each day from 9am to 6pm. In particular, the society would like to hear from people physically capable of helping to lift wooden pallets.

I really don't think I'll ever stop talking about this specific topic. Trust me, I wish I could! And when I see excellent articles from After Ellen talking about how Amber Heard is STILL a bisexual even though she is married to a man now, I applaud! Because yay! There's a website that a TON of lesbians read and they are totally backing bisexuals! And then you look at the comments. And what do you say about the internet? NEVER READ THE COMMENTS. But I did. I was happy to see a lot of people gung ho in support, but there were still lesbians complaining about bisexuals going with "heterosexual privilege" and marrying a man. Do I think a man and woman can be together and have a lot less worries about "oh can we hold hands here?" Of course! However, I would argue that is a completely separate issue, and has NOTHING to do with the process of falling in love.
That's just not how love and attraction works. At all. You know how there was that video going around a while ago with people asking straight people "when did you decide you were straight?" Like it was a choice. Remember how ridiculous that sounded? Cause of course being gay and being straight isn't a choice. But people that complain about 'fake bisexuals' are acting like it's an ok thing to do to THIS population and it makes no sense. Do they think bisexuals go into a relationship store and say "well geez I don't know the man base model comes with so many nice features, and you have to pay a higher premium for the same perks with a lesbian. Y'know I think I'll go with the man, can I get one in black?"
It sounds ridiculous, cause it IS ridiculous. It suggests that there are all these bisexuals with checklists out there trying to figure out how to get the most out of their chosen spouse. As opposed to the reality of person X meeting person Y and thinking they are awesome so they decide to get married.
However, I do have a theory. You know when kids are very wee and they think they can hide from you if they stick their head under the bed, but their ass is sticking out? You have to count to ten and pretend like it's really hard to find them, cause it's adorable. Well, all kids do that because you don't develop the ability to recognize other people's perspective until you're older. Until then, you think "I can't see you so you can't see me." I think the problem with so much of the prejudice out there stems from this psychological default. That no matter how much we learn about the world, our experiences are always filtered through the idea of "well if I haven't experienced it, then it doesn't exist." Therefore, "If I have never been attracted to men, I don't understand how bisexuals can and therefore it's not real." And there you go, your ass is sticking up in the air. And it's just not cute when you're an adult.
It doesn't matter in the slightest who anyone is sleeping with. That's what we say to straight people when they want to know about our sex lives, right? So why do we think we're allowed to judge someone else for who they're sleeping with? We're not. No one is. Just because you're curious doesn't mean it's any of your damn business. A bisexual dating a man is the same person now as she was when they were sleeping with women. So let's not be like parents with conditional love, kicking them out of the family for not being the kind of gay that we are.
I know, I'm on this soapbox again. Trust me, I would love to leave this soapbox behind, but until this isn't a problem anymore, consider this soapbox glued to my feet.

I ventured to downtown Memphis, along with 18,000 other Memphians, to FedEx Forum. In case you missed everything on local social media, the Memphis Tigers basketball teams were introducing Penny Hardaway. Let's be real about this. This was all about Penny and I don't say that as a bad thing at all. Penny has energized the city in a major way. At this point, he should just run for mayor because he would definitely win. Last night was also about courting top recruits as well. #1 recruit James Wiseman was in attendance. You know who wasn't in attendance? Justin Timberlake and Drake. I think everyone was a bit let down by this but Yo Gotti, Moneybagg Yo and Block Boy JB are very hot artists right now so it's not a huge letdown, even though a certain sports media guy swore they would be there.
So how did the Tiger squads look? The lady's team has some shooters!! Seriously, they have some women that can straight up shoot the rock! I was so impressed by that. As far as the men, I don't think this will be a national championship year. I do think they have more talent than last year, but they haven't magically become awesome. I think the expectations are high because of the star power that Penny Hardaway brings. Memphis is a tough town. They demand results. The team will be better.
The excitement in the city is amazing. Seeing a sellout crowd at the Forum was awesome. When the Tigers are rolling, things just seem to flow better in Memphis. The BBQ tastes better, drinks on Beale have a touch more alcohol, Gibson's puts a bit more bacon on the maple bacon donut and Jack Pirtles gravy has the right consistency. Memphis becomes Memphis.
Welcome to the Penny Hardaway era.
Life is for Living,
Michael B.

Demi Lovato Promises Fans Will Know Exactly Who Inspired Her Messy New Songs
Demi Lovato is gearing up for her new album. The singer is fresh off of the release of her second single, a break-up ballad for her own addiction, and she's ready to dish on what "Tell Me You Love Me" is going to be about. Demi teamed up with fans to reveal the track list, but she isn't ready to say who the songs are about–yet.
"I have never really been so honest," Demi claims in an interview with Entertainment Weekly. "You can just hear it through the lyrics. I think my fans are gonna know exactly who I'm talking about."
Whether that means Wilmer Valderrama, Joe Jonas, or some other infamous ex, Demi isn't ready to spill. Song names like "Ruin The Friendship" and "Cry Baby" raise a lot of questions. It seems like Demi is excited to step outside of the box imposed on her by her Disney days.
"Raven's Home" Finally Premieres And Millennials Are In Their Feelings About It
The highly anticipated "That's So Raven" reboot, "Raven's Home," premiered on Friday night and viewers young and old were tuned in to the Disney Channel. Like Disney's "Boy Meets World" reboot, the new Raven-Symoné series will bring a bit of nostalgia for many millennials who grew up during the golden era of the brand.
While some fans reminisced about the good days of "That's So Raven." others reminded fans who this show is really for.
"Raven's Home" is just one of the many '90s to early aughtss TV series that both Disney and Nickelodeon have decided to revamp, but unfortunately "Hannah Montana" most likely will never be one of them.
See more of the fan reactions to the "Raven's Home" premiere below.

Is Jade Thirlwall Taking On One Of Disney's Most Beloved Princesses?
Rumors are swirling that Little Mix's Jade Thirlwall is set to play Princess Jasmine in Disney's live-action remake of "Aladdin." The singer is reportedly on the verge of signing a contract, but is hesitant due to what the production will do to the schedule of the band.
A source from The Sun claims, "Jasmine is Jade's perfect role, so she's delighted to have got this far in the process. The talks have been going on for some time now. And the longer they go on, the better her chances are looking. All of the girls have their fingers crossed for her, as they always support each other. But they also know that it would be a huge commitment…It was quite an emotional conversation. But they all agreed that they would try to make it work for her around Little Mix commitments. It wouldn't be easy, but as far as it's possible, that's what they want."
Fans seem to be ecstatic about the idea, urging Jade to take on the role.

Twitter, along with Facebook and Instagram, appears to be one of the most popular social networks in the world, allowing its users to send messages that are equal to or shorter than 140 symbols.

Tramfest Street Party!
Howard Street in Nambour is the place to be on Saturday April 28 for our first Tramfest Street Party of 2018! There'll be live bands, fantastic food and entertainment for all ages. It all kicks off at 5pm so come along and join the fun!
All happening in Kenilworth
The annual Wine, Cheese and Food Festival was an absolute knockout in Kenilworth over the Easter Weekend with around 10,000 visitors attending. Unfortunately this was the first festival I had to miss due to a recent knee operation which, under surgeon's orders, required strict 'R&R'.
Nevertheless, I was over the moon to hear how busy the town was across the weekend, with local cafes & restaurants in particular packed with customers. This year council also provided additional waste bins to cater for the influx of people visiting the town. Around 20 (?) wheelie bins were placed at Booloumba Creek Rd and Sunday Creek Rd and by all reports they were very much needed! I'll be doing a debrief with council's waste collection team very soon to assess whether we'll need to provide even more bins next year as well as whether they'll need to be emptied more often across the weekend.
There's more fun to come in Kenilworth too, with the Sunshine Coast Ukulele Festival rolling into town from April 19-22. This terrific event was in serious danger of being lost to Kenilworth due to disagreements about staging costs, but with the help of council's Economic Development team I managed to keep the four day festival in what is definitely its rightful place in the Kenilworth Showgrounds. Check out www.sunshinecoastukulelefest.com for details.
Kenilworth Community 'Uber' Bus Service opportunity
A few weeks ago I put a mention in this column about becoming a volunteer driver for the proposed Kenilworth Community Bus Service. Well the response has been fantastic and I'm rapt to report that we've received around 10 expressions of interest. This means we can now look to progress this service and I look forward to bringing you more information about this at it comes to hand. So a very big thankyou is in order for all of our volunteer drivers!
