Saffron Nights
"Very hot. I definitely learned some things about food I didn't know!" Readaholic's Reviews.
"Saffron Nights is a heated culinary tale that starts a promising series." Reviews by Molly.
"And after reading (Saffron Nights), you may never think of exotic foods in the same way again." Joan Chandler.
Selected as a recommended read by Harlie of Harlie's Books
This is my review so pay close attention…BUY THIS BOOK!!! You will thank me later. One of my top three books of the year, if not in the last two years. Yes, its that's good. That is all…
Scared you, didn't I? You really thought that was my review? Then y'all haven't been reading my reviews. This book was perfect and I'm so not a foodie. The foodie in my house is my husband. He's the chef, I just buy the groceries for him. This book made me hungry, aroused and a bit jealous of all the places that Maeve and Jackson went to. Of course, I could do without the shootings, druggings, kidnapping and people wanting me dead part.
Oh yes, there is a murder mystery expertly woven into the plot and its a doozy! I never saw the villain coming and when it was revealed, I was shocked. Wow, way to keep the suspense and mystery going Ms. Everly. I also liked the "why" of the mystery/suspense. It was interesting when they figured it out but the who came much later. Of course, I have read a snippet of the next book that focuses on a key secondary character and I'm very pleased with this. Plus you will find that the "research" in the book about food and spices interesting to say the least. Even hubs didn't know some of what Ms. Everly wrote about. I even learned a couple of things, too.
Unfortunately, I have to wait until November, 2013. I can't wait that long Ms. Everly and Kensington. Can it release early? I'm so hooked on Liz's writing. Her writing flows, her characters are layered and rich and her settings? Oh my…I really want to go to India now. Her secondary characters are some of the best that I've ever read. They are so NOT window dressing but integral to the plot and to the development of Jackson and Maeve. The excerpt above does not do the book justice. The dialogue between our hero and heroine is hilarious, poignant and smart. I watched them fall in love and it was beautiful.
I could go on and on about Saffron Nights but then I would spoil it for you and Harlie doesn't do spoilers. Just go buy the book today. Again, you're welcome.
Saffron Nights is full of intrigue and suspense. Jackson and Maeve were the two main characters. They traveled the world to fulfill their contracts to publish a cookbook specifically written about aphrodisiacs. Prior to their journey they learn that another partner is dead and possibly killed. They proceed with their mission and take the reader along a jaunt filled with twists and turns, peaks and valleys. I loved the conflict between the Maeve and Jackson. It wasn't your typical I have eyes only for you and will touch no one else but you. This book allows the reader to see the multifaceted nature of the conflict of giving up one's previous life to be with a person that you love. That was one of the most enjoyable aspects of the book.
The characters are lovable and easily draw you into the story. I gasped when the characters were attacked and attempted to help them solve the mysteries. I let go of a sign of relief when they were saved. Saffron Nights is a wild ride that you will definitely enjoy taking.
Reviewed by Michelle for Cocktails and Book
"Aside from the overt sensuality of their aphrodisiac food research and the moments of sexually charged tension between Jackson and Maeve, the storyline of Saffron Nights is complex and richly written. The characters are extremely complicated, introverts that live in their heads much of the time, at times frustrating for their sheer inability to communicate their needs, concerns and fears. The mystery involving the murder of Chef woven into the story which reads like part travelogue, part food history, part romance, teases the reader with dark delight. As the characters globe trot in search for spices and ingredients that titillate the palate and passions those who indulge, Saffron Nights commands constant attention lest the reader miss one of the tantalizing details.
Highly enjoyable, definitely more erotic than your average cookbook, Saffron Nights rates a decadent FOUR Chocolate-Dipped Strawberries!"
— Jenn at Guilty Indulgence Book blog
"I am definitely waiting for the next book by Liz Everly. I was astonished to read the opening chapter of "Cravings" to see the author has brought back a surprising character from Saffron Nights. —Allison at Romancing the Book book blog
"A sensual tale with a bit of mystery, Cravings is packed with heat." —Marina Adair, Best Selling romance author
"Cravings is an intricately crafted confection of food, sex and intrigue. So delicately balanced, it is hard to describe as one specific genre – it is certainly romantic suspense but with erotic content and fascinating tidbits of culinary fact and history. I think it's safe to call it a genuinely excellent read, however." Jenn at Guilty Indulgence Book blog
Tempting Will McGlashen
*** Not only was TEMPTING WILL McGLASHEN a very good story, but the mouth watering meals Mathilde was cooking had my saliva glands working overtime. Which is not to say that this was any kind of cookbook but in my opinion it had a little bit of everything in it, making it a a very tempting morsel of literature. First and foremost I love history, any type and the early days of the Virginia frontier and early America to me are fascinating. Combining this with a sweet and lovely romance coupled with food served during those early days just made it ever so much more appealing.
To me, Mathilde herself was a bit ahead of her time. She knew she wouldn't be content to go and be a farmers wife. Mathilde loved cooking, working in her parents inn, or as it was referred to in the day, her parent's ordinary, and meeting all the people passing through. For her parents sake Mathilde tried to recapture some of the love and friendship she once had for Joshua, but over the years, they had both changed. Couple that with Mathilde's feeling towards Will McGlashen who was now prominently in the picture, she knew where her heart truly led.
Very well written, author Liz Everly did a wonderful job of creating a great romance with plenty of issues that needed to be resolved concerning Will's mysterious background, including a surprise twist that could make the relationship Mathilde and Will were building go careening off track. But then I don't reveal spoilers. Do yourself a favor and pick up a copy of TEMPTING WILL MCGLASHEN and I am sure you won't be disappointed. Very highly recommended.

Food Check-Out Day marks the time of year when Americans will have earned enough disposable income to pay for groceries for a family of four, for the rest of the year. Every year, the Delaware Farm Bureau Women's Committee purchases groceries from Sam's Club in Dover and stocks the cupboards at the Ronald McDonald Room in Bayhealth Medical Center. The donation allows families with patients in the NICU at Kent General Hospital to have a snack or quick meal while staying close to their loved ones.

Vodafone has released the next stage of their brand story via FCB New Zealand.
This phase follows last year's evolution of the brand's positioning, which was launched with the 'Hello' campaign.
Nileema Allerston, Manager Network Brand, Vodafone, said, "We're thrilled to announce the next phase of our brand story, which focuses on the future today – with a distinctly New Zealand flavour.
"Everyone has a different view of their future. Their hopes, their dreams and the things they want to do. But the future isn't years away, it's happening right now. With today's extraordinary technologies, people are living their lives in ways that were inconceivable ten years ago," she said.
The campaign's two hero TVCs are designed to entertain and connect with New Zealanders by showing humorous, slice-of-life moments that everyone can relate to. They demonstrate how technology makes life more productive and enjoyable.
James Mok, FCB's Chief Creative Officer, said, "Technology is at the centre of people's lives today and we want Vodafone to be the celebrators of making lives better. It's been a great opportunity to take Vodafone's global platform and tell it from a distinctly New Zealand perspective."
The two spots are the first in a series of TVCs and other broader communications that will be released over the coming months. The campaign will be the first major piece of work delivered by Vodafone's new media agency, Wavemaker, since they were appointed in April.
Delina Shields, Head of Brand, Vodafone, said, "The team at Vodafone is committed to enriching Kiwi lives through tech today, so we can help pave the way for an exciting future for New Zealand. We look forward to bringing this philosophy to life through our marketing communications."

Game Information:
Super Fantasy Zone (スーパーファンタジーゾーン Sūpā Fantajī Zōn?) was the last addition to the Fantasy Zone series of video games and was released for the Sega Mega Drive. It was originally released in Europe and Japan but, for unknown reasons, not in the United States. However, North America would eventually receive the game in the form of a Virtual Console release on July 21, 2008.[1] The game is a free moving shoot 'em up, like its side-scrolling predecessors, and essentially has the same core gameplay as the arcade original. The soundtrack to the game was composed by Naoki Kodaka, but also features themes from the original Fantasy Zone game composed by Hiroshi Kawaguchi.

text: Amy Ross didn't dance at her wedding, thankyouverymuch #Real Weddings: Northeast US#first dance alternatives#museum#no dancing#rhode island January 16 2007 | Ariel arielmstallings The offbeat bride: Amy Ross, Writer (and Offbeat Bride lab rat!) My offbeat groom: Mike Ross, Academic Location & date of wedding: June 3rd, 2001 in the garden of our college's anthropology museum, by the sea. What made our wedding offbeat: My wedding probably felt pretty traditional to most of the guests — there was champagne and oysters, I wore a white dress, a bouquet was tossed … My biggest rebellion was something most people probably didn't even notice: NO DANCING. I've always felt the dancing at most weddings is stupid and fake. Neither my groom nor I had ever danced outside of a rave setting, so waltzing around some hardwood floor felt like a lie to me. Instead, I told the museum staff to put up the volleyball net, and my friends and I served and spiked away the afternoon in our fancy suits and dresses. It was a lot of fun, and it helped keep the wedding from getting too stuffy and grown up. Our biggest challenge: I was such a laid-back bride, nothing ever felt like a huge problem to me. But perhaps my biggest worry was how to pull off a religious wedding that didn't make my (Jewish) family or his (Catholic) family feel excluded. The answer? Two weddings! Okay, not quite, but almost. We had a rabbi marry us in a garden in Rhode Island, then a week later, a priest blessed the union in a church in Indiana. Added bonus? Two wedding locales meant nobody's elderly grandparents had to travel halfway across the country to be part of the ceremony. And of course, two parties! My favorite moment: I did have one other tiny rebellion against tradition: no seating plans. I had watched my sister agonize over who should sit next to whom for ages before her (very traditional) wedding, and I just couldn't be bothered. So I told the caterer to put out a bunch of tables and chairs, and let the chips fall where they may. This might not work for everyone, but luckily our friends and family are a very sociable bunch. Halfway through the reception, I was thrilled to see that people kept rearranging their tables so they could sit next to new people all the time. A lot of people made new friends that day. Oh crap, I have another: My REAL favorite moment was when one of my best friends beat his own girlfriend to the bouquet. He intercepted my toss as if he were fighting for a superbowl title — and of course, promptly spiked the bouquet in triumph. My offbeat advice: Choose your battles. Weddings aren't all about you, they're about brides AND grooms, AND family, friends, community … If a red wedding dress is going to give your mom a heart attack, that won't make anyone happy. On the other hand, a truly original and well-thought out wedding will be an inspiration to everyone. Don't be afraid to compromise a little. In the end, a wedding is a party, and the most important thing is that everyone have a good time. Enough talk — show me the wedding porn: Why only a volleyball and shoes with this profile? Due to a total SNAFU, Amy's wedding pictures were almost completely a bust. You'll have to use your imagination to picture those oysters slipping down happy guests' throats. Are you an offbeat bride?

CANTON -- SUNY Canton is slated to receive a $111,326 grant to purchase and renovate the vacant former Jubilee Grocery Store in downtown Canton to create what officials call an "entrepreneurship accelerator."
The funding will be part of a series of Northern Border Regional Commission (NBRC) grants for for infrastructure projects around New York's 21st Congressional District, announced St. Lawrence County's Congresswoman Elise Stefanik (R-NY-21).
SUNY Canton's plan for the money will involve a $312,500 rennovation of the old Jubilee store which has sat vacant since it closed in 2000.
The new entrepreneurship accelerator proposed by the college will provide entrepreneurs from the campus and the broader community with resources, mentoring, and space to start their own businesses.
Another grant in the series announced by Stefanik will help fund a $373,130 project planned by the Adirondack North Country Association (ANCA) to create the Adirondack North Country Center for Businesses in Transition.
The center will establish a regional network of public, private and nonprofit partners in Clinton, Essex, Franklin, Hamilton, Jefferson, Lewis and St. Lawrence counties.

Garden Grove, CA to Denver, CO
This was my very first time hiring movers, when moving day finally came it was an easy process! The movers were on time, super friendly, professional and were very careful with our stuff. It was so worth it to hire them and would definitely recommend to anyone moving.
The movers who came to my house were extremely professional and pleasant. While the move took a little longer than anyone was anticipating, that's because I had more stuff than I originally envisioned, and multiple flights of stairs in both the house I was vacating and the one I was moving in to. I am very impressed with this company. Best move experience I've ever had.
Mike and Igor helped us move across town today. They showed up exactly on time and took great care of everything as they packed it up. Very professional, very fast, and very thoughtful (they even gave me a ride to my new house!). We'll be using them again whenever we move.

Guess the Pest Week #23 Answer: Sudden Death Syndrome of Soybean
by Nancy Gregory, Plant Diagnostician; firstname.lastname@example.com
Sudden death syndrome of soybeans (SDS) is caused by the fungus Fusarium virguliforme. We started seeing this disease in Delaware in 2002 in cool and wet seasons, but have seen it more often in the past few years. SDS can be confused with other stem diseases such as Phomopsis stem canker and charcoal rot. Leaf symptoms of yellowing and browning between the veins are typical, and leaves shrivel and fall off, leaving petioles still on the stems. If stems are pulled up and placed in a plastic bag overnight, blue spore masses of the fungus may be seen at the base of stems. The internal stem tissue (cortex) may show dark discoloration. There is a toxin produced by the fungus that is responsible for the symptom pattern showing up at the top of the plant. The fungus overwinters in debris, and disease is most severe when infection occurs early. Improving drainage, alleviating compaction, and treating seed may help get seedlings established.

So tomorrow I'm going to be selling my prints and some originals at 'Originate Creative Craft and Vintage Fayre' at Flitwick Village Hall, Bedfordshire. This is my first time officially selling in person (not just behind my laptop screen!) so I'm a little nervous. Here's some pictures of the preperations I've been making, and some new work I'll be selling…
(above) My lovely friend Lauren (hi Loz!) helped me get everything ready and packaged up. I would be lost without her help!
Some of the orginals that are for sale…

So, wish me luck!

PARACHUTES: Frank Iero Explores Depth in Music, Life and More
Construction railings shield the growing line outside of U Street Music Hall from the scorching heat in Washington, DC. With just one look at the crowd, a passerby cannot pinpoint what the line is waiting for. From My Chemical Romance to Death Spells, each avenue Frank Iero has taken in his music career is represented.
A van pulls up, and out comes Frank Iero and company, all of whom have spent the past hours visiting Dischord Records in the city and grabbing lunch. The call time for loading in their equipment had been pushed an hour, so we make our way down into the heart of U Street, along with the equipment.
The green room is a grungy hole where countless artists have set up before. Furnished with old, black leather seating and a simple bathroom, the artist's bags have been dropped off and Iero graces the room. Debuting his fresh haircut, Iero immediately fills the space with his charm. Dressed in black head to toe and adorned with an assortment of pins and patches, Iero recounts his last time in DC for his tour promoting Stomachaches with frnkiero andthe cellabration. This time, the band is nearing the end of their east coast dates, which will culminate in New Jersey, Iero's hometown.
In October of last year, Frank Iero and the Patience released a sophomore album, Parachutes, which has given listeners everything they could ask for. Iero's music progressed from the rigged, DIY basement punk that sounds homemade and raw, to a more refined and polished punk rock masterpiece. The lyrics are unregrettably honest and come from the depths of Iero's soul, only to give listeners a true sense for what goes on inside his head. With bringing Ross Robinson on board, Iero tells Teal Magazine about his experience working with the legendary producer who pushed him out of his comfort zone: "[Ross] is just so kind and so supportive and emotionally present. He asks all of the right questions, like questions you don't necessarily want to answer. He really gets into your head, but like in the best way possible. And here's the thing too, you see, I don't know maybe the process is different for other people, maybe he is able to see what you need as a person. But my experience was just the most positive beneficial experience I've ever had."
With the release of any album, artists go on tour to create a live experience for listeners. Unfortunately, the band found themselves in a life-altering accident days before the release, which stole that initial period of excitement every artist looks forward to when sharing their work. Parachutes carries an overarching theme of how things in life essentially happen for us instead of to us. There is always a reason and always a lesson to be learned, and that is the beauty of it. Iero is incredibly honest in sharing how the accident became a real life example of what he conveys to listeners in this album. "I didn't think I was ever going to get to do that again, and to have that be kind of like stolen from you, it knocked like the wind out of my lungs, and like the soul out of my chest kind of thing. It was all encompassing and it took me a couple of weeks to kind of sit down and really listen to the record. [It] was so sad that I had been so proud of this thing and maybe not get to ever do it again, especially with the songs I'd worked on so hard but when I listened to it, it felt like I had almost written myself this letter."
Iero has spent a good portion of his life touring, but has since left those rockstar days behind. Years later, the solo project has Iero back on the road again. With three young children at home, we asked Iero about what it is like being away from his family, "No, it's hard man, it is. Especially when my kids are young still, they're starting to understand but they're not fully there. They'll ask you questions like, 'Oh wow, I don't understand like you know my friend [for example] Erica's dad doesn't leave for weeks and months on end.' And I'm like 'Yeah, well first off, Erica's dad is a dick', and so it's like, no I don't say that, but uh it's true, but you know like some [or] most dads get to be there like maybe in the morning for a little bit and then they go to work and then they'll get to see you before you go to bed. And I feel like if you accumulate all those minuscule times and compare it to when I'm off the road, I'm there completely like I probably get more time or at least more quality time you know. By the way, I'm totally kidding about Erica's dad. Ha! I just made that thing up."
Teal Magazine: We're gonna go tell Erica's dad.
Frank Iero: No, don't tell Erica's dad. I have to see him at a PTA meeting. But also too, I think it's really cool that I get to go to different places and bring back like kinder eggs and weird, different things.
Iero's exploration into a solo career started in 2014 with recording a few songs to reclaim his creativity, which eventually turned into the foundation of a full-fledged album. The difference in both albums stems from who the intended audience was. Stomachaches was not created for others to hear, until a friend of his heard the album, which led to an eventual record deal. "When I set out to do this solo thing, I decided I would name the band after something I needed to bring with me or wanted around me and then I was like alright that's done and now I gotta go in the studio and kind of like think the process of going to the studio and making a second record, or third record, or fourth record, is you've kind of got to go in and reinvent yourself and kind of re-figure out like what it is that you do, how do you do it, you know, what things are supposed to sound like and if you do it correctly, you sound completely different basically from where you were. Cause you've grown as an artist and as a person. The downfall is that you have to call the band the same thing and I was like, well that really stinks and then I thought to myself well if it's a solo project then there's no rules. Like I could just do whatever the hell I wanted, so I want to change the name." Keeping things unorthodox, Iero forsees continuing to change his band's name. The work behind building a new band's aesthetic and visuals is what excites him. Iero has explored many artistic outlets, everything from painting to photography. A creative mind leaves an artist hungry for their next piece of work. For Iero, he loves the challenge of figuring out how to do something along the way, sort of "stumbling [his] way through it". DIY is taken quite literally when Iero decided to create a sculpture from a piece of wood and nails, which would be featured on the cover of his Record Store Day release, For Jamia. The passion behind everything Iero does is undeniable and is well appreciated by those who connect with his work.
On the Parachutes track list, a theme of darkness is apparent. With such unique names, it makes sense to be curious about how Iero goes about coming up with these outrageous names. "I think it's song to song. Sometimes you come up with a name and you're like, 'Oh that's so good, I got to write that down and sometimes it becomes a song. Sometimes it just stays in your phone, you know as a weird little uh quip, I guess".
One of the more interesting titles is Veins! Veins!! Veins!!!!, a song that discusses "Being the offspring of addiction and/or offspring of an addict and knowing that it runs like through you and that you could definitely go that way if you wanted to". Veins! is one of the many powerful concepts Iero explores on the record. This song was supposed to be the name of the album, but according to Iero, "It didn't work out that way and I'm really glad it didn't. When I thought it was going to be the name of the record, I only imagined it being like an EP. And um, it didn't encompass everything that I was trying to say, so that's why I kind of pushed it aside… It just kind of, because I felt like basically in a nutshell I'm going off on a tangent, do you want me to go off on a tangent?" The room bursts into laughter. Other titles like Remedy and Oceans seem simple, but an observant look at the lyrics reveals much more depth than one can imagine.
The music industry can be filled with entitled artists who forget those that helped them along the way to success. Iero's humble and genuine demeanor is refreshing and greatly appreciated. Speaking with him feels as if you are talking with a friend, a comfort level you do not reach with strangers right off the bat. Iero must be on the top of everyone's list for the ice breaker question "Who you would have dinner with, dead or alive?". This man has so much to say, and each and every word is worth hearing. Frank Iero and the Patience is a project filled with a masterful sound and lyrics, and definitely not a band to fall off your radar. Iero's personality shines on stage, leaving an everlasting connection with each crowd, bringing them back to the next set for more. Not only are these crowds incredibly invested in him as a person and artist, but the diverse age range brings an entirely new element and shows the lasting effect of Iero's successes.
While one tour has ended, Frank Iero and the Patience will be touring Europe with Dave Hause and the Mermaid and The Homeless Gossip Choir. On September 22nd, an EP titled, Keep The Coffins Coming, will be released, which acts as the missing link between Stomaches and Parachutes.

Study: Oxygen Levels Have Varied Little Over Ages
A new study finds oxygen has probably not varied all that dramatically since dinosaurs first roamed the Earth. Scientists in Ireland say the atmosphere seems to have been at least 15 percent oxygen for hundreds of millions of years.
MELISSA BLOCK, Host:
The Earth's atmosphere is about 21 percent oxygen. But it hasn't always been. There have been ups and downs in oxygen levels and they may have played a role in mass extinctions and the evolution of mammals. A new experiment suggests the history of the Earth's oxygen may need a serious rewrite. NPR's Richard Harris has our story.
RICHARD HARRIS: Much as they'd love to, scientists can't travel back into time to measure the oxygen content of ancient air. So they need to find hints in the rocks. And one hint is the presence of charcoal dating back hundreds of millions of years. Charcoal means there were fires, and those fires needed oxygen. So, Claire Belcher and a colleague at University College in Dublin set out to answer a seemingly easy question, how much oxygen do you need to make a fire?
HARRIS: Being able to create a low-oxygen environment that's realistic is quite hard.
HARRIS: They spent well over a million dollars to build chambers that would allow them to control oxygen levels and other gases as well.
HARRIS: I had to wear what kind of looks like a spacesuit...
HARRIS: ...to actually work in the chambers because it was down to nine percent oxygen. Humans would have trouble below 18 percent oxygen.
HARRIS: Belcher and her colleague tried to light pine twigs and peat moss on fire, and they very gradually increased the amount of oxygen in the chambers.
HARRIS: I couldn't just go in there and strike one match, say, oh, look, it didn't light. So I was in there for a good few months in this spacesuit igniting fires.
HARRIS: And as they now report in Science magazine, it actually takes quite a bit of oxygen in the atmosphere to sustain a fire.
HARRIS: You needed atmospheric oxygen concentrations at 15 percent to ignite a wildfire, essentially.
HARRIS: That 15 percent is a lot more than some previous estimates. In fact, some scientists, using other methods to estimate oxygen levels, say there are times when they are a lot lower, around 10 percent. And one of those periods of low oxygen coincides with an enormous mass extinction 240 million years ago. So, scientists suspect low oxygen could even have been a major reason for that die-off. Maybe not if this new estimate of oxygen is correct.
Now, oxygen levels aren't just about understanding extinction, they could be involved in the evolution of animals. Paul Falkowski at Rutgers University has proposed that since the days of the dinosaurs, oxygen levels on Earth have gradually risen, from 10 percent to present levels of more than 20 percent.
HARRIS: All data show there was a rise of oxygen from about 150 million years ago to present time. And we believe that about 55 million years ago, there was a big tick of oxygen.
HARRIS: And oxygen boost gradually made the environment more favorable for our own lineage, the mammals.
HARRIS: Mammals started to get very large, and they rose to massive prominence over the next 20 million years. And so, the rise of placental mammals really is a story we believe that's still based upon high concentrations of atmospheric oxygen.
HARRIS: But the story gets more complicated when you look back farther in time. If, as Falkowski believes, the atmosphere was only 10 percent oxygen before the dinosaur boom times, that suggests a world with forest of ferns and conifers, but without fire.
So, there could've been a period of time on Earth where, essentially, there was not enough oxygen to create wildfires.
HARRIS: Exactly.
HARRIS: That's a wild thought.
HARRIS: It is a wild thought.
HARRIS: That's also possibly contrary to some of the fossil evidence. So right now, the pieces aren't all fitting together neatly. It's a work in progress. But the payoff would be understanding how our atmosphere came to be full of life-giving oxygen today.

New Video! Eastern Tour! Armageddon!
Hello Fugitivios; I write this on the eve of the end of the world so it's quite pointless to be telling you about our upcoming tour dates but frivolities are distracting from the fact that I will probably be going to hell for my sins soon, so... Just kidding- we are so stoked to be touring Eastern Canada again in a week and we don't care about Armageddon because our souls are beautiful and immortal!! So come celebrate life with us from Toronto to Halifax and everywhere in between, May 28th-June 14th.

And.. we just shot a live video with the wonderful folks of Green Couch Sessions in Vancouver. It's for the song Start A War and takes place on a not-completely-stationary freight elevator. Check it out: VIDEO
Happy Rapture, everybody. See you on the other side (of Canada, that is).

Are Glis Glis in Berkshire?
Somebody asked us today whether Glis Glis can be found in Berkshire.
If you take a look at our Map of Glis Glis Sightings from 2016 you will notice that we trapped a number of Glis Glis in Berkshire.
As Glis Glis come out of hibernation we fully expect to trap a fair few Glis Glis in Berkshire this year and I dare say it won't be long before Glis Glis are found in Oxfordshire and Hertfordshire.

Well, I just endured one of the longest nights in recent history. Ang(ie)didn't get home until 1:30 am. She was with her sister at the hospital. And I am the proud new uncle of a brand new baby boy. Welcome to the world Benjamin!
What started out as a day off for me. Turned into a full day of watching Malaia, which I have no problem with. It's the night time where typically on a work night I don't even hear Malaia through the night. It`s Ang who gets up with her if necessary. Recently she`s been waking up a lot through the night. SO I had to make sure that I was on the ball in case she did indeed wake up. And really through the night it was only 3 times. It was the cats that woke me up another 3 times, and roughly a 1/2 hour of chatting when Ang got home, that's got me so tired.
I know this is just a dose of what's to come once we have baby #2. It'll be an adjustment for sure.
I'm sure none of it compares to the day that Ang had. She had heard from her sister on Sunday saying that she was in some pain and discomfort. Which turned into Monday. And by the afternoon yesterday Ang had to cancel her last few patients of the day and head to the hospital. Although it was a really long day I`m sure it was all worth it. Benjamin was born at exactly midnight on Dec 2. Malaia now has a new cousin and playmate, and we can`t wait for her to meet him.

240 Central Park South near Broadway
Sea urchin and lardo sound like an unlikely pair but they make for a successful marriage on a sea salt crostini. Both have a melt-in-your-mouth sensation and possess their own distinct characteristics. The sea urchin's sweet brininess is balanced by the buttery tones from the lardo. Mmm... And that crunch from the crostini. If a plate of these were offered as an entree, I'd order it and forget the rest of the menu existed.

40% of Taksim Mosque construction is completed. 90 percent of the main construction is done of the new Taksim Mosque In Taksim Square and all work of the building that has been done yet is 40 percent.
The construction, which the famous architects Şefik Birikiye and Selim Dalaman signature on, works started last year on February 17 on the 2 thousand 482 square meters area in Taksim square, ongoing works continue on car park area and on the main dome.
90 Percent Of Construction Completed
Ahmet Misbah Demircan the Mayor of Beyoglu, said that the mosque's construction began last year, and since then almost 90 percent of rough construction has been done. In total, 40 percent of the mosque is completed.
Construction Continues Without Disturbing Environment
President Demircan underlines that the ongoing construction of the mosque continues with a brand new technological approach, declared: '' Construction of the Mosque continued both downward and upward. It can be seen that the main dome soon closes up. At the bottom, the basement construction is finished.
Demircan added that finally right now the construction of the glass is being done, which can be called as the level of completion of rough construction and this is being done without disturbing the environment soon after that, minarets and decorations of inside the mosques will be started. The process of construction is going well, Demircan said.
A Mosque And A Church
Mentioning about the architecture of the Taksim Mosque Demircan claimed that the after finishing the construction, a nice silhouette will be seen a church in one hand and a mosque on another side, this will give us a great opportunity to show Istanbul on the right place.

Investigator(s): Dr. Jon Skranes, Dr. Ann-Mari Brubakk, Dr. Gro Løhaugen, Dr. Kristine Hermansen Grunewaldt
Program: Cogmed RM
Background & Aim: Children born preterm are at increased risk of neurological disabilities due to perinatal brain damage. Major impairments including cerebral palsy, mental retardation and impaired vision and hearing are most common in children born extremely preterm (gestational age below 28 weeks). In addition to this, a large part of survivors after preterm birth will experience motor problems, cognitive dysfunctions, psychiatric and behavioural problems of varying severity. Preterm children also are vulnerable to reduced hippocampal volume and white matter injury, which are associated with a compromised WM system. The aim of this research is to compare quantitative EEG findings and cognitive and neuropsychological test results before and after training with Cogmed JM in a group of Very Low Birth Weight (VLBW; birth weight ≤ 1500 grams) children of preschool age.
Population & Sample Size: N = 30 children born at VLBW, ages 5 -6 years
Design: Randomized, Waitlist controlled, Test-retest, 6 month follow-up
