After travelling in China for the last 2 months, we have done our fair share of long distance coach journeys. Each time we travel by coach, it seems that something more ridiculous happens. From eardrum destroying Chinese house music to drivers that clearly allergic to road rules, here is a round up of funny things that happen on Chinese roads......
1. The locals carry on HUGE bags of stuff. Laundry bags full of bedding, big sacks of food, bulky electrical items like heaters, you name it. Apparently when it comes to luggage on a coach, the bigger the better.
2. Passengers are constantly shouting on their mobile phones, hocking and splitting into plastic bags. Proper Chinese-style.
3. The driver spends half the time on the other side of the road, overtaking on blind bends, trying to peek past the car in front. When you are a thousand meters up on the edge of one of the worlds deepest gorges this really is terrifying!
4. The driver stops umpteen times to pick up parcels along the way. Locals shout him a couple of yuan and he delivers it at the other end, a little entrepreneurial side job if you will. Sometimes you are waiting for someone to turn up with a package on the side of the road for half an hour. Grrrrr.
5. People seem very confused by their seat number. Even though everyone has an allocated seat, it seems that the front ones are somewhat in high demand and so the seat numbers become a bit 'hazy'.
6. Everybody chain smokes. Thank goodness it's not on the bus itself but only at stops. Locals have a habit of smoking with fags in between their teeth, looking a bit wannabe John Wayne, pacing in front of the windscreen.
7. There are demo music videos blasting out on repeat. The songs are terrible. There is a group of traditional dancers that they cut to every song, dancing the same dance. It is honestly the loudest and most annoying thing you have ever heard. For 5 hours.
8. Every local farts at least once during the journey and it smells bad. Enough said.
9. Drivers are God on long journeys. If they want to listen to Chinese house music on full blast for 5 hours, stop 20 times for private jobs or just call their whole mobile phone book, no one can stop them.
10. The service stops consist of an old lady selling snacks on a pop-out table, a trough toilet with no walls, and some luke-warm hot food that definitely might hospitalise you if you ate it. Eat some steamed monkey nuts instead, you can't go wrong with those hot nuts.
11. There are always animals in the road. Pigs, cows, dogs, yaks, donkeys... you name it. And it always decides to cross just as you are driving past, obviously.
12. Drivers use their horns all the time. They use it to tell other drivers where they are on the road, to tell them when they are making a crazy overtaking manoeuvre, to tell them when they are annoyed with others overtaking. Horns are a universal language in China.
13. The coach gets washed at every stop. That might be 3 times on a 4 hour journey. Why you might ask?! Well there's no obvious answer, just stay out of the way of that hose.
14. Sometimes there are no roads, just bumpy old dirt tracks. Roads are constantly being rebuilt, gigantic bridges just pop up in the middle of nowhere and as a result the temporary road surface is always a funny one. Just take some padding to sit on!
15. Most of the road signs are translated into English, but badly. 'Don't drive off cliff', 'no rubbish drive car'. Very helpful indeed.
16. Rocks are falling. Nearly every road we seem to go on there are always signs for rocks falling, and above you is a crumbling cliff edge with ginormous protruding rocks sticking out the side. Please please don't fall on us, falling rocks that are always falling.
Do you have any funny stories of travelling on Chinese coaches? If so let us know below in the comments box!

text: Share: Comments Print April 9, 2010 at 9:45 AM McGinn is on the right track with light rail; the housing delusion continues Posted by Jon Talton Seattle Mayor Mike McGinn is right to make the case for redesigning the 520 replacement bridge to include light rail. The world faces a future of higher energy costs, whether Americans want this or not. It doesn't really matter what we want. We can want a pony. But the energy future is coming no matter how much we drill, baby. Electric cars? Maybe, but they'll still be more expensive and require plenty of fossil-fuel "inputs." As a result, the metros that can offer the most transportation choices, especially retrofitting suburbia with trains and rail transit, will be the most sustainable and economically viable. China gets this, which is why it is in a crash program including subways and high-speed rail that America is still not building. The suburban retrofit has gotten little attention, but it's vital, would also create new jobs, and is actually doable on portions of the East Side. We should be moving with a sense of urgency on I-90 and 520. McGinn will probably lose. The process-is-everything ethos here can drag on for years until it can't, and now "everybody" is ready to go, whatever the wisdom of continuing dependency on single-occupancy car trips. It's funny that Seattle claims green cred yet always looks enviously at Portland, which continues to build light-rail, including a new bridge totally dedicated to transit. In reality, our metro area wants that pony — to be green, but still keep building a 1965 transportation system. But the 1965 energy world is not coming back, no matter what we want. No matter, even, what Microsoft wants. The Back Story: Felix Salmon of Reuters takes a look through Fannie Mae's 117-page National Housing Survey and comes away with a sobering conclusion: "People still believe in housing as an investment, and that the enormous nationwide housing crash has done much less to alter Americans' attitude towards homeownership than we might have hoped." Is it important to the economy that there's a high rate of house ownership? Eighty-six percent of respondents who are delinquent on their mortgages said yes; 77 percent of renters; 80 percent overall. Writes Salmon: "This is horribly misguided, and it's particularly depressing that even 77 percent of renters share in the mass delusion. Homeownership is, if anything, a drag on the economy, since it funnels resources into unproductive overconsumption, and helps to impede labor mobility. There is absolutely no reason to believe that countries with high levels of homeownership, like the U.S., have better economies than those with low levels of homeownership, like Germany."

Audio from former JOY elder Dwayne Wilkerson on Sunday morning August 27th, 2017.
A note from Pastor Vaughn:
This morning we are honoring Dwayne and Lynn Wilkerson. Selfishly sad, I have to accept the fact that they are moving to Chattanooga Tennessee to be close to their grandkids.
Dwayne and Lynn came to JOY many years ago with a passion to see God glorified in and through their lives. They hit the ground running, expressing love and encouragement that has been faithfully poured out on the Church body, week after week. Dwayne served our Church faithfully as an Elder for many years. I have experienced first hand, his wonderful encouraging words and love, from numerous text, phone calls, meetings, and his faithful Sunday morning phone call followed by a brief moment in my office before services where he'd always pray for me and for our time in the Word. Through those moments, God knitted our hearts tightly together and I have grown to greatly lean on his anointed, wise, uplifting, and compassionate words.
Most days my first phone call of the morning is from Dwayne with this simple, heartfelt opening line: "Hey there my Pastor, I just want to tell you, I love you." What an encourager... This love and encouragement has not just been a gift to me, but to our entire Church family. We have grown stronger, been greatly blessed and benefited through having them in our lives. I thank God for His outpouring of love through this precious couple.
I look forward to seeing what God is up to as He leads them into and through this new season. Join me this morning as we express our gratitude for their service. Let's pray today and then continue to pray for them as they move, connect to a new Church body and get settled in to their new home.

Celebs boycott Brunei-owned hotels over such laws as death by stoning!
I have always been a fan of Sir Richard Branson, but I feel that the community of Los Angeles and their celebrities need to put their money where their mouths are and lay down their picket signs. The fight should be against the countries that are not embracing alternative lifestyles and human rights. Brunei is not the only country that has issues with gay and womens rights. These are the same countries that we continue to support by buying their oil. We have enough oil resources in this country to never have to spend one cent with these countries. Although the mayor of Beverly Hills states that The Beverly Hills Hotel is a pillar of our community, it is all about the ownership and lack of concern for justice. Brunei has a population of 415,000 + and this boycott is not effecting them at all. It has not brought justice and human rights to them. Boycotts like this are misdirected and very harmful to the employees of the hotel.
In this case, these employees work for a hotel company that takes care of their people in a country where justice for gay, women's and all minority rights are a pillar of our foundation. I agree completely with not supporting Brunei Sultan Hassanai Bolkiah but it is their country not ours. From what we hear they are not interested in stopping this new law and this misguided anger will only hurt the hotel's employees. It doesn't seem that he is going to sell these hotels. There are many hotels owned by leaders that are not leading in a fair way in their own country but this hotel is being run by Americans and American employees. It is really easy to sit back in your easy chair and make accusations without having to pay the price of lost business, lost jobs and destroying an iconic hotel for what a leader in a far off country is doing in 'his own country.' I have traveled throughout the Middle East where I have been questioned by religious police, had to dress in an Abayas and I never had a problem living the adage 'when in Rome do as the Romans do.' This is not about our laws or our country and it certainly isn't about The Beverly Hills Hotel who employs around 600 employees and the Hotel Bel-Air around 400 employees. In addition research shows that they also pay about $7million in bed taxes and $4million in city taxes annually to support the community.
The time has come to take control of what we can control. The issues in this country, our own problems in the workplace with gay, women and all minority rights and truly keep our employees working. Boycotting, protesting and canceling business at this hotel doesn't do anyone any good - even the competitor hotels who for the moment will enjoy the last minute revenue could become part of the next protest.

Ashley was my first bride i booked without meeting first. That is always so important for me to meet the bride and groom to start a relationship first. She came in from LA, California to meet with me a week before her wedding and i knew right then she would be one of the sweetest brides. We went to see her venue and she was so excited because the last time she had seen the venue it was raining and cloudy. Her mother told me they booked with me because of my photos showing real smiles and not too posed. I thought that was amazing because i really try to make everyone comfortable and never feel pushed to do awkward poses that they will hate after the wedding! During the wedding i found out Ashley had been in a terrible car accident that almost took her life... I have never seen so many people crying during the reception when Ben took the microphone to say a special speech to her. Thank you Ashley and Ben for being so sweet and letting me capture your special day. I am so excited to show you -just a couple of- highlights from their day! I wish you both a life full of happiness.

You'll notice that a lot of the articles come from the New Times. Two primary reasons for this: the New Times has an extensive online history for free; and when they do cover ASU athletics, they tend to do so in depth.
Anyway, two articles today from the late 90's, both of which are still highly relevant.
In March 1998, John Dougherty's article ASU plays footsie with Nike detailed then-AD Kevin White's attempt to secure a $5 million per year deal with Nike. Funny, but 10 years later it's obvious that ASU is not one of Nike's "featured" schools. I can buy an FSU, Texas or UNC cap here in PA, but no sign of ASU merchandise.
In The Selling of ASU Football from September 1998, Dougherty reported on the commercialization of the gameday experience.
The real battle during ASU home football games pits fans against a high-tech marketing machine that employs a distracting array of audio, video, live stunts and bright signage to hammer commercial messages into a captive audience.
No matter how the game unfolds, no matter the situation on the field, Sun Devil fans face a fusillade of advertisements. The ads divert attention from the field and refocus the "market" on products and corporations being hawked.
Two years later, ASU was forced to announce that they were reducing the number of in-game commercial announcements.

This morning at 3:54 in London, England, Grammy winning singer Amy Winehouse was found in her apartment. Winehouse was only 27 and joins an already long list of my musicians who's life was cut short at the young age of 27. Winehouse had dealt with a drug and alcohol addiction for years and while the details of her death have not been made public yet, it is assumed she lost the battle with her addictions and her demons. Weeks earlier, Amy Winehouse had performed her final concert in Kalmegdan, Belgrade. It was reported that she left rehab early to go on tour and at her final concert, Winehouse was disoriented and forgot the words to her song "Valerie".
Rest in peace, Amy Winehouse September 14, 1983-July 23, 2011

I think that you all know how I feel about the cold. . . I like the snow for snowboarding, but the cold? I pretty much hate it! Which makes me a whiny little . . . Even I got sick this winter of my incessant whining this year. So, I decided that shock therapy was the way to go and signed up to do the Chicago Polar Plunge benefiting the Special Olympics Chicago. The spirit of Swish is to do things that challenge you, so I thought there was no better way to do it than in my bright pink swish bikini! Plus, the cause is near and dear to us as we believe everyone should have a chance to get in there and do the sports they love.
The morning of the plunge was unseasonably cold, but I was ready to be "Freezin' for a Reason!"
I joined thousands of plungers on North Street Beach where the snow had been pushed back to revel a layer of slush that we were to jump into. Many came in crazy costumes and with teams of their friends supporting their favorite athletes. Watch the Special Olympics Committee's video here to see some of the crazy outfits and crazy smiles on everyone's face!
I was a little nervous while waiting in line, because I was already cold in my parka and boots!
When it was my groups turn to plunge, I took off sprinting as fast as I could so that I did not have a chance to turn back. Hitting the water was. . well more shocking than refreshing.
It takes your breath away with a sharpness in your chest; however, after a few moments your skin goes numb (a sensation that takes a while to wear off!) The post plunge beer tent really helped with the thawing though!
At the end of it all the discomfort was minimal and the amount of fun was great. I will be polar plunging the rest of my life. The event raised over $1 million dollars benefiting Special Olympics Chicago, and that it something I will plunge into any freezing lake for!
Have you ever polar plunged? Tell us about here! Also check out our plunge video on Qwiki! http://www.qwiki.com/v/LTcRv1g2?fb_action_ids=366952883419147&fb_action_types=qw_qwiki%3Acreate&fb_source=aggregation&fb_aggregation_id=288381481237582

Just a quick update really. I haven't worked on Eat Should for a week or so now, as I'm still getting to grips with Construct, and it's pretty disheartening as I keep running into errors and whatnot. I've created a lot of the graphics for the game though, so I've been doing something.
In search of help though, I watched a number of video tutorials, and sort of grown to hate them. I can understand why they exist, as they take a lot less time to produce than, say, written tutorials, and good videos are actually pretty helpful sometimes. But because of compression, screen resolution, and the guy doing it being incredibly shy or mumbling, a lot of them aren't useful. Or even worse are ones which cut to screens of a wall of text, and constantly pausing and playing is a huge pain. Especially when everything is sped up in order to cram everything into the Youtube upload time limit.
On a side note, I've also started up another project. It's gonna be 3D, and the aim is to make a bizarre low-poly adventure game, something that might have been a lost/unreleased N64 game. In an aid to learn the software we'll probably be using (the wonderful Wings3D) I half-made some sort of robot guy. I didn't get round to finishing it, which is why the arms and textures are pretty crappy.
Deeply inspired by some of the great work thecatamites has been doing over at Salt World. Definitely worth a look through.
I'm gonna make something in Game Maker this week. It won't be anything substantial or anything but I just want to get back into the flow of things.

FDA today issued an update regarding 23andme's Bloom Syndrome carrier testing de novo approval as a class II medical device (DEN140044). A copy of FDA's letter to 23andme is attached. Please also find below a link to FDA's Decision Summary for this product and it's limited, narrow use.
FDA's approval of the de novo classification request and Decision Summary are specific to 23andme's Bloom Syndrome test, and the Agency has not yet issued a general guidance describing how it intends to allow other carrier tests to be available as class II (but 510(k) exempt) medical devices. We expect that the guidance will set out similar limitations in labeling and use as the Bloom Syndrome carrier test, and require similar performance characteristics for any subsequent autosomal recessive trait to qualify as an exempt, class II device. This decision also does not appear to preclude carrier testing from being offered as LDT services by high complexity CLIA laboratories as they are currently available under FDA enforcement discretion. Additionally, under FDA's proposed LDT framework, the existence of a similar, FDA-regulated carrier in vitro diagnostic devices would place other carrier LDTs on a shorter timeline to FDA regulation than novel (low risk) LDTs.

The week of September 11-17, 2016 has been declared State and National Direct Support Professionals Week. Dickinson Center, Inc. encourages the public to recognize and express appreciation for the work of community providers caring for our friends, family, and neighbors with intellectual, development, physical, and other disabilities.
Many residents of our region are unaware of the important services that Direct Support Professionals (DSPs) provide, although many may know people who would benefit from support or may someday need support themselves. DSPs assist their clients with activities of daily living. Many individuals are able to live in a home in their community because of this assistance. This workforce is responsible for the health, safety, and emotional well-being of the individuals they support. DSPs help individuals to live more meaningful and productive lives by encouraging them to be active in the community and helping them to maintain their independence.
The need for the quality care provided by DSPs is constantly growing as the population ages and those living with disabilities increases. The number of people who chose the direct support field as a profession, however, is not meeting this growth. Although most direct support jobs are considered entry level positions, the DSP carries a big responsibility. Low reimbursement rates for state-and federally-funded services allow providers little flexibility with competitive wages for DSPs, contributing to a shortage of these workers to serve those in need.
Dickinson Center's direct support staff have many examples of how their work is life-enriching for both themselves and the people they serve. Relationships that are formed through direct care are built on mutual trust and respect. Individuals grow to look forward to the help and support of their caregivers. Family members provide positive and respectful input. DSPs accept the individuals for who they are, celebrate their successes, and welcome the privilege to work with those that they support.
During Direct Support Professionals Week, Dickinson Center encourages the public to learn about the services provided by DSPs and to support policies to improve funding for these services in order to ensure they are available when needed.

An industrial tribunal has ruled that South Lanarkshire acted unlawfully in changing terms and conditions inherited from Strathclyde Region, because they formed part of teachers' contracts.
The council had run into bitter opposition from the Educational Institute of Scotland in its attempt to overhaul grievance and dismissal procedures.
Other councils were planning similar changes which, among other things, would have allowed a director of education not the education committee to dismiss a teacher, although there was to be a right of appeal to the same subcommittee of councillors which sits in judgment on other staff.
The ruling also stalls the plans of at least three other authorities that were awaiting the outcome of the South Lanarkshire case. They are Edinburgh, Argyll and Bute, and Dumfries and Galloway The decision is a particular snub for Pat Watters, chair of South Lanarkshire's personnel committee, who is an influential adviser in national negotiations involving council staff.
Mr Watters argued that the council wanted to improve conditions, introducing for the first time an internal right of appeal against dismissal. At present an education committee's decision to sack a teacher, in the rare cases where it is exercised, is final.
Mr Watters recently warned teachers' leaders they were in "the last chance saloon" if they wanted to negotiate new conditions before changes were imposed. He was unavailable for comment but a spokesperson said the council was "obviously disappointed. All we were trying to do was to introduce consistent and fair procedures for all employees." The council would study the judgment in detail before deciding on a response.
The EIS said South Lanarkshire should learn lessons from its "crude attempt to impose unilateral changes to conditions of service", and hoped it would respect the tribunal's findings.
Ronnie Smith, the union's general secretary, said the ruling sent "a message to teachers' employers throughout Scotland that, if they try to undermine teachers' conditions arbitrarily, the EIS will use every means at its disposal to protect these conditions. Teachers should be entitled to a full and fair hearing whenever any aspect of their work is questioned."
This was a veiled warning to education authorities that have entered talks in the Scottish Joint Negotiating Committee determined to emerge with more local bargaining control over conditions which are currently subject to national agreements.
"If employers are serious about more local bargaining, they must recognise that negotiation and not imposition is the way forward," Mr Smith said. "South Lanarkshire has learnt that the hard way."

With what would you associate the name of George Gretton? For many solicitors, he and Kenneth Reid make up the double act that has guided them in Scots property law for the past three decades, through both published work and practical seminars, spiced with humour as well as learning. But that picture only partially reflects a formidable intellect who yet connects with legal practice in a way that not many full-time academics do.
Having retired after 35 years' teaching at the University of Edinburgh, 22 of them as Lord President Reid Professor of Law (he now has the title Emeritus Professor), Gretton can look back on a career in which his work has helped bring order to rather more than just the field of property law, though that has been a big enough task.
Interestingly, the law was not even Gretton's first field of study (nor was it Kenneth Reid's). They first met on the graduate LLB course in Edinburgh, Gretton's previous degree being in philosophy and Reid's in history. But for Gretton at least, "As soon as I started studying law in 1976 I fell in love with it; I was absolutely gripped." His genial smile masking a permanently inquiring mind, he suggests his earlier degree instilled "a slightly disrespectful attitude to legal texts, if one can possibly put it that way".
He graduated, qualified with Ketchen & Stevens and spent a further year in practice there before returning to Old College. "I wasn't absolutely committed to an academic career from the outset, because I also enjoy practice a great deal. But one thing I found in practice was that you need a thick skin. Things do go wrong, and I remember the first time a client shouted at me, for a fairly minor mistake but it was a mistake. I realised I probably didn't have a thick enough skin for legal practice."
He must have developed some level of protection, however. He and Reid did rather burst on the scene at a time when Scottish legal writing was still emerging from some fairly inactive decades, and ruffled a few feathers in the process. The preface to the newly published collection of essays in Gretton's honour recalls the judicial retort of Lord Ross – "two individuals whom I understand to be academic lawyers" – to one early critique of a decision.
"I did annoy people sometimes and I did step over the mark once or twice, and I regret having done so," Gretton concedes.
He was hardly put off his stride. Readers who have known the Journal since those days in the 1980s will recall his erudite output not only in property law, but subjects including commercial law, diligence, bankruptcy, succession and trusts.
Gretton's career has coincided with a transformation in Scots property law, assisted by the arrival of the Scottish Parliament and its series of Acts which finally put paid to the feudal system. Asked about Holyrood's influence, Gretton gives it good marks, qualified by its patchy record in dealing with the less glamorous legal topics.
"A great deal of law is a bit like what I call plumbing. A lot of law is very important. We tend to take it for granted. People tend not to think about it while it's working properly; sometimes people don't even realise it exists. But when it goes wrong, it's like plumbing going wrong: then people sit up and say, this needs fixed. And like plumbing it needs maintenance."
Scholars can try to "knock the law into shape", he adds, but it also needs legislation. "In 2017 the number of Acts passed by the Scottish Parliament has been five." (There has since been a sixth, on wild animals in travelling circuses, which Gretton would doubtless regard as glamour rather than plumbing.) "And when I hear politicians say we can't do this bit of law reform because there's no parliamentary time, I really have no patience with that."
Gretton's wish list for action includes the Scottish Law Commission's reports on the law of trusts: "It's not glamorous, but it is classic maintenance work that needs to be done, and so much of our law of trusts has not been updated since 1921"; and on prescription and title to moveables: "This is something very important to the art world, museum world, galleries, collectors, auction houses. Our law is just a mess, and nothing has been done."
No one could accuse Gretton of being unwilling to tackle legal plumbing jobs. His first book (which went to a second edition) tackled the obscure fields of inhibition and adjudication; a subsequent monograph focused on searches; co-authored works have covered property, trusts and succession as well as his and Reid's longrunning annual conveyancing updates. Numerous published articles and contributed chapters have covered a range of Scots and comparative legal topics.
One project with which he was closely associated was the Scottish Law Commission report that led to the Land Registration (Scotland) Act 2012 – not the average property practitioner's favourite statute. Was it wise, I venture to ask, to meddle, whatever the theoretical justification, with a system that as far as they were concerned was working well?
The question provokes a laugh. "Thank you for that one!" But also a clarification. "The first thing I would say is that some of the changes that came in from December 2014 were not actually in the legislation itself. Registers of Scotland decided to introduce changes off their own bat which were nothing really to do with the legislation, and I think it's some of those that the profession has not been happy with." That admittedly does not apply to the one-shot rule; however, "To take a very simple example, the application form is not a very user-friendly thing; that was not in the legislation, nor was the 'tell me, don't show me' principle. That was initiated by the Keeper, and has led to some people saying that the Land Register is now the Sasine Register plus map. I don't think that's true even with that principle, but the principle is not in the legislation."
He continues: "Going back to your question, I don't think everybody was happy with the [pre-2012] legislation. It got criticised by the judges; there were a lot of complaints by the public. Registers of Scotland themselves had become very unhappy about it. In the early years Registers were defensive; they were very closely associated with the 1979 Act, but as time went on they increasingly saw quite serious faults in the legislation and had come to seek a thoroughgoing reform."
Pointing to advance notices as a popular feature of the Act, he comments: "Their design took a lot of work, and I think they've been successful. So although there's been grumbling, I think the change has been pretty much to the good.
"I've seen so many complaints that are not actually about the legislation; they're about what Registers has been doing or not doing. I'm saying this slightly reluctantly, because Registers of course is never very popular with the profession. I think, however, we are quite lucky to have Registers of Scotland by international standards.
"I think Registers did make one or two mistakes at that transition. But I want to say that in the context that Registers has been and is rather a good land registration organisation. I would like to ask people where they think in the world it is done better. That's a serious question."
Does he believe Registers can meet its ministerially imposed target of completing the Land Register by 2024? No, is the simple answer, because even with Keeper-induced registration, so many titles will have difficult boundary issues, especially in more rural areas. "A very large number of titles will be done, and by 2024 completion of the Land Register will be up to a fairly high level, but I'm not going to predict what proportion. And completion will be very beneficial."
Against the positive impact of the Scottish Parliament is the increasing globalisation of legal practice – and in some cases terminology, with the likes of "real property" and "probate" coming into use even in a Scottish context. While "queasy" about such incursions, Gretton is confident of the future for our distinct body of law.
"I think Scots law as a separate system is likely to survive. Now in saying that I'm not expressing a hidden wish. One could make up a case for saying Scots law should not survive. There's a statable case that one island shouldn't have two legal systems, that it increases costs for the ordinary punter and so forth. That's a very complicated question, and I actually think that on the whole a lot of Scots law does work a bit better than English law, which is one reason why I would like Scots law to continue. Our land law, our contract law, property law in general. Those are big areas. But a reverse merger is never going to happen."
Is there a role for practitioners in strengthening the system? "I think practitioners often, and it's very understandable, are not particularly interested in some of these big questions and I have sympathy with that. For example, when law reform is looming in an area, most practitioners don't pay attention until it's actually coming up to the door. They have other things on their plate and I wouldn't want to preach about that.
"But it's great when practitioners are interested; for instance with the Scottish Law Commission project on moveable transactions, there has been astonishing support from commercial practitioners, and if they charged their standard billable rate for the time they put in, the Commission could not conceivably have paid for it. That's wonderful, and I think we're extraordinarily lucky in Scotland that so many practitioners are interested in reform, but I wouldn't for a moment criticise others who are not. It's tough working in practice."
He does point out that although there are more consultations from various sources on aspects of reform than even he can respond to, those who do put in a view "can actually have real influence, and people take notice", given the generally low rate of response.
What has Gretton been most proud of in his career? The question catches him by surprise, but after a little thought he nominates his analysis of the fundamentals of trust law, first developed in his essay in the volume published in honour of his predecessor Professor Bill Wilson. "It's the concept of patrimony, a way of thinking about the trust which solves a number of problems – it required a lot of thinking, comparative law. It's a way if you like of understanding what beneficial interest means in Scots law. Because you can't analyse beneficial interest the way the English do (mind you the English themselves have endless disputes about what they mean). We've never really been able to agree here what beneficial interest means, but I think patrimonial right as a concept seems to have more or less solved this problem. That has gradually come to be accepted and the Court of Session on a number of occasions now has accepted that."
What does he miss most? "The students. Because it's a great privilege being in contact with young people; it's a wonderful experience, teaching."
But his contacts with the practising profession have also meant a lot. "Theory without practice is empty, and practice without theory is blind. I certainly have benefited enormously from contact with practice. The two should work together.
"I have huge respect for practice and practitioners. Obviously practitioners vary, but they often have to tackle very difficult intellectual problems. Unlike academics, they don't have the luxury of setting their own problems; they have to tackle problems which are not of their own making, and they often do so very well. Academics do operate under pressures including pressure of time, but what we don't have is the pressure of clients and the need to put in billable hours and so on. So practitioners give a very valuable social service, and some academics don't quite understand that."
It does not surprise that we have not yet heard the last from George Gretton. "My wife thinks I'm not taking retirement seriously enough. In 2017 three books have come out, all co-authored; next year there will be two more, both co-authored, so I'm still busy scribbling. No doubt there will come a time to give it up, but it's never been just a job for me, it's a vocation and it hasn't gone away. I still have a number of academic projects in hand here. Because it's all good fun. I realised early in my career that one lifetime is not enough!"

The entire sporting world appears to be falling apart piece by piece. Each day brings new sporting scandals in North America. Not only is that busy scene difficult to cover, but add in the hot world of doped cycling in Europe. Floyd Landis' ship slowly sinks off the coast of France, as new evidence points to his Tour de France derailment. Each day implicates more cyclists doping on the continent.
Former Tour winners Jan Ullrich and Ivan Basso remain hounded by charges of doping. Ullrich retired, however last week doping charges continued around Europe involving the German superstar. Unlike the USA, where authorities appear to believe that attacking the drug sources is key, Europe prosecutes athletes too, under sports fraud laws.
Basso too peddles into infamy as Operation Puerto rides on. Puerto is Europe's BALCO, only with more EPO (don't forget Barry Bonds, and Marion Jones stand accused of EPO doping too). From France24.com:
Another 49 cyclists are implicated in the Operation Puerto doping affair which is threatening to cast an even darker cloud over the sport ahead of the first two major stage races of the season.
According to Monday's Gazzetta dello Sport, a new 6000-page dossier from the Spanish doping affair, which has already ensnared Jan Ullrich and Ivan Basso, contains evidence which implicates a new crop of suspected cheats.
'Operation Puerto' erupted in May 2006 when police uncovered an alleged blood doping and doping network when they raided the premises of a Madrid sports doctor Eufemiano Fuentes.
Police hundreds of small bags of blood, banned substances such as EPO (erythropoietin), growth hormones and anabolic steroids, and incriminating documents with alleged codenames and numbers for Fuentes' 'clients'.
Does this sound familiar? Massive drug-cheating. Physician involvement. Conspiracy. Read on:
Some 200 athletes and 58 cyclists were reportedly implicated, leading to the suspension of 13 riders - including Basso and Ullrich - by their teams prior to last year's Tour de France.
Both Ullrich and Basso and many other riders implicated have protested their innocence. So far, only Ullrich appears as guilty following a recent DNA comparison test with blood found during the raid.
Ullrich has since retired while Basso, who was initially cleared by Italian authorities in the autumn, is to appear at a new hearing scheduled by the Italian Olympic Committee's (CONI) disciplinary commission this week. More (as if this isn't enough):
Everyone is innocent, right? No mystery in the cynical reaction to Floyd Landis' defense; every athlete claims innocence. In a sport so dirty that massive numbers of athletes at the pinnacle of achievement cheat, one more excuse can be dismissed as par for the Tour course.
"This new dossier is supposedly 6000 pages long. It is said to mention 49 riders, among whom are some of the biggest names in the sport, adding to the 58 already implicated.">
If would mean 107 cyclists have now been implicated in Operation Puerto, leaving the sport's world ruling body, the International Cycling Union (UCI), and major race organisers with a major headache.
The UCI is battling to get to the bottom of the affair which dragged on for most of last season, while the organisers of the Giro d'Italia and the Tour de France are keen to prevent further scandal on their races.
A recent DNA sample from Ullrich reportedly linked the 1997 Tour de France winner to blood found in Fuentes' laboratory.
It led Tour de France director Christian Prudhomme to declare last week: "The sport just cannot allow cyclists who are still implicated in this affair to start the Tour de France if suspicion still hangs over them."
Basso will be asked to provide a DNA sample, which could prove his innocence, when he appears at the CONI hearing on May 2.
After being suspended by his team, Discovery Channel, last week, it appears his chances of defending his Giro d'Italia crown in the May 12-June 3 race are hanging by a thread.
Giro director Angelo Zomegnan said last week: "As it stands his (Basso's) participation in the Giro d'Italia will be difficult."

Falafels saved by Stars/
While I was a student, I had a part-time job in the shop at the National Gallery and me and my colleagues often used to go and get falafels for lunch from a place called Gaby's in Charing Cross Road. I had a couple of hours free last Wednesday so I asked Alessandro if he fancied going there for lunch. As we were walking up from Trafalgar Square, I thought the cafe might have gone but luckily it was still there. It was about a decade since I'd been there but the falafels were reassuringly just the same – crispy on the outside, soft on the inside and snuggled inside pitta with lots of hummus. As we munched away, we chatted about how nice it was to be somewhere that was so kind of real and unassuming – a café that wasn't a homogenised chain and had its own identity. It was also packed so it was obviously very popular.
Just as we were leaving, I noticed lots of newspaper cuttings on the wall. It appeared that Gaby's had become pretty famous! In 2011, the landlord wanted to turf them out so that the site could be developed but lots of celebrities (that had been going there for years) supported them and succeeded in getting the tenancy agreement extended. I read that Gaby, now in his 70s, had come to London 50 years ago, opened the cafe and actually introduced the falafel to Britain! There were pictures of him with Matt Damon and other stars and on the way out, I passed him working away behind the counter with a smile on his face.

I've really stepped up a gear this week with making sure I get out for a daily walk to help clear my mind when it's time for a break from work. It's something that I've tried to do consistently, but due to workload, I've struggled to adhere to it.
I will openly admit that I have managed to pick up bad habits on occasion involving not moving away from my desk enough and not getting any physical exercise. One of my most important ethics to my business is to help remind other remote workers the need to look after our own health and well-being. It's something that I would like to convey a positive message about as much as possible, however, how can I do that if I'm not entirely practising what I preach.
Good intentions are great, but if you don't see them through then they can have a real adverse affect, making you feel a sense of disappointment and that you've let yourself down. This is a cycle to get out of immediately! If you let yourself feel disappointed then it's letting in those negative nellies. The best way is to recognise. It's enough, so that tomorrow or even right now we can change how we're feeling. Get those walking shoes on, get out there, feel the fresh air and let your mind be free.
Recently, I have come to realise that I've been setting expectations of myself a little high, which was having the complete opposite impact that I wanted, so I stripped everything back. I took a walk and worked out exactly how to do that and before I realised, I was already doing it! My walk was stripping everything back to basics. Exercise at a basic level but at an achievable level for exactly how my mindset was geared! Walking certainly works for me!
I think we all put ourselves under a tremendous amount of pressure, especially as business owners which can result in us over thinking things and making what should be enjoyable, like a task to tick off.
Let the things that make you feel good feel natural. Have a routine by all means, but don't knock yourself down if your good intentions don't always come true.
Until next time…

Many people find themselves living in homes where space is at a premium and it can be very frustrating if you're not well prepared in terms of storage. The kitchen is one of the worst places to find yourself short of space as kitchens necessitate the storage and easy access of such a lot of equipment. Many people have gadgets galore and these alone can take up a huge amount of space.
Looking at how to save space in a small kitchen should be a satisfying experience, as you begin to organise and change the set-up of your cooking areas you will see how easy it is to make the most of even the tiniest galley kitchen.
Where to begin saving space in the kitchen
The first thing to do if you're looking at reorganising your kitchen is undoubtedly the task of de-junking. Most people have a large collection of crockery, pots, pans and cooking equipment which is only partly in use. Begin to change your situation by getting rid of anything that hasn't been used in at least a year, those "fun" cake tins may have looked cute when you bought them but are you ever going to use them? Do you really need two toasters and three sets of crockery? Look at all of your equipment with a critical eye and if it's not in regular use or if it's ugly, get rid of it!
Revaluate the storage in the kitchen
Look with fresh eyes at the storage available in your kitchen, how many of the drawers and cupboards are being used to their full potential? Do you really need a "Junk drawer" in the kitchen? Clear out the mess and the junk and take anything un-related to cooking or food storage out of the room…find a new home for your bills, spare computer leads and children's craft equipment!
Line your drawers and cupboards with clean lining paper if they're not in great condition…this provides a clean surface and will help keep your tools and other equipment in good condition. If you have a large cupboard which is home to pots and pans, then think about freeing it up for other items by using a hanging rack for your pots instead. Keeping these large vessels overhead will not only look stylish but also keep everything in sight so there's no more scrabbling about in the depths of the cupboard when you want a particular cooking pot!
Think outside the box
Look at storage which is not necessarily designed for the kitchen but which can be very handy…drawers on wheels for instance can be a good place to keep all kinds of incidentals such as tea towels and even cutlery!. A shelf or two in a "dead" corner is a good solution for storing your nicer pieces of china, you can add cup hooks to hang your everyday mugs and cups from. This is a good idea for those kitchens which don't have space to add a dresser.
Maintaining your space
Remember that keeping things tidy is even more important in a small kitchen and if you are able, it is a good idea to designate certain areas as "zones" for different activities. One zone might be your food preparation zone and this should be close to the cooker and the fridge if possible, another zone might be your hot drinks zone, this is where you keep the kettle, tea, coffee and sugar. Organising things this way makes it far easier to keep the room neat and tidy and will also ensure that your space does not become cluttered.
Even small kitchens can run like clockwork when some thought has gone into keeping things organised, remember to throw out anything which is worn out, broken or no longer in use as maintenance is especially important when space is at a premium!

A motivational and inspirational coffee sleeve line called WarmThoughts. It keeps your hot beverages warm; Coffee Sleeve with a Heart!
A motivational and inspirational coffee sleeve line called WarmThoughts. It keeps your hot beverages warm; Coffee Sleeve with a Heart!
I love quotes and the meaning behind each one. The past 5 years have been rough. I went through a really bad divorce and it caught me by surprise. I did a lot of reading and journaling to help me through the days. The most therapeutic was to find quotes that most help me through those dark and crazy days. On top of everything, I was let go from my company in May. It has been a blessing in disguise because my creative juices have been flowing and I started my company, WarmThoughts. I am raising funds to Kickstart my company, WarmThoughts. It is a line of motivational and inspirational quotes that are customized on a coffee sleeve. They will come in series and each quote is custom picked by me. I have already sought interest and have two meetings with prospective retail buyers. The funds donated will go to manufacturing Series 1, 2, 3 & 4. Each series will have 5 sets of quotes along with an option to purchase cups, lids, and other customized pieces from my WarmThoughts line. Also, there will be a website, shopwarmthoughts.com along with a photo shot and pictures to get ready for the meetings and for social media. Every sleeve that will be sold I will donate 5 cents to charities that support combating depression and help youth and adults journal and get through their darkest days. I have been lucky and I want to share my success and WarmThoughts with the world.
Any help would be appreciated and thank you so much.
