Day, er – week, er, two? Three? – of the weavery investigation and my quest for autonomy and Celticness
Parked up in the same bay, with just a couple of gannets and a solid, friendly, unpretentious Portuguese couple braving the soaking gales in their tent. Dreach Celtic moment to play a little An Buachaillin Ban (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Tvgk2WjM_Y). Reading the local paper.
Which is nothing like reading the Western Morning News. Well, it is a little like reading the Western Morning News: there are typically rural concerns that very much remind me of home (wherever that is) – 'Cattle and coping with extremely wet summers'; typically provincial pride (in an endearing way); lots of adverts; and showcases for local businesses and village fetes ('galas', here). But Lewis is forward thinking, outward looking, creative and critical. There is, understandably, a little anti-Westminster-railing (I love the 3D 'Yes' sign planted on an island in a lochen outside Stornoway), and this modest local rag offers intelligent, left-leaning critique of Cameron's proposals to cut immigration (and thus, this author suggests, to once again compromise UK industry and increase unemployment). This modest local rag visits Cuba to learn about community and finds their people 'financially poor, but culturally and socially […] millionaires'. This modest local rag 'challenges private estate owners to create crofts' for local people and documents the successes of community-owned townships. This modest local rag boasts of prestigious traditional music courses producing shit hot musicians in tiny places (my friend and I were mega impressed by young Cameron and Ross, students on Benbecula, in Glasgow in January (http://listenagain.canstream.co.uk/celticpodcast/index.php?id=299). This modest local rag talks of 'Saving languages and crossing borders' as Gaelic looks to Occitania and the 'Poetry of troubadours' for some lessons in survival. This modest local rag dedicates pages and pages to the only Scottish music festival to appear in Songlines' Summer top 10 year on year, and the black artists get columns as long as the Celtic ones. This modest local rag features artists and craftspeople with as much pride as it features crofters, entrepreneurs, footballers, kebab shops and primary school activities. And with almost as much pride as it features Harris tweed. (Almost.)
Stornoway has the largest Co-op supermarket I have ever seen, easily rivalling the Tesco baddies on the other side of town. (The little Co-op forget to give me my £50 cash back and though I don't want them to take my word for it when I go back – not least because I am utterly scatterbrained at present – they handle it generously, trustingly and responsibly, and like the friendly informality of the Post Office who offer me an ad hoc, no-charge, paperwork-free service, it leaves me feeling glad to have this as my local town.) As well as the long-lost favourite cheese in the whole world ever (Scamorza – smoked mozarella), Stornoway also has lemon and black pepper chocolate and a Gaelic-speaking Pakistani community.
Can you tell I'm impressed?
OK, I admit it's not Utopia. There are no trees, thanks to the Barelegged viking king's scorched-earth battle tactics. Even the very few hardy Canadian conifers are struggling. The bungalows are still ugly, grey and prolific, planning regulations presumably pretty lenient, and people still consume like normal Westerners. The only whistle echoing round the hills and into the sea fog is my poorly played one. I have not yet found the 'hireath' that my mum tells me is Welsh for a mythical Celtic concept of the yearned-for, probably metaphysical, home – but there are music classes, sessions and ceilidhs on every night of the week around the island, if I've the energy. (I *will* find the time and energy for Gaelic language and Gaelic singing classes, I swear.) And this rainy bay is a good place in which to feel hireath, anyhoo.
On a mission for hook-up to do me ironing (no, not my clothes, silly, I mean crabbing my woves – steam ironing to set the cloth) I pass many a weaver's studio with a welcome sign. There will be enough to keep me busy exploring for months – or, since I also need quiet time, music time and, ahem, weaving time, perhaps years. I also pass signs for Norse mills and kilns and brochs, and a friend of a friend gives me a lesson via Facebook on Norns ('The Norns are most powerful beings,
In Norse mythology the three most well known ones are Urd (past) Verdandi (present) and Skuld (future, or that which will be)
They weave the fate of men, Gods, and even worlds. The skein of our personal Wyrd is decided by them…'). I know next to nothing about Norse mythology, so this is welcome information.
Docking in civilisation the campsite is astroturfed and unromantic, but still a reasonable place to go to work, and well-run. The Leodasach lady owner, whose lilt sounds very Welsh, who asks me what nationality I am and who totally counts the Cornish among the Celts, lived in a photographed-but-now-disappeared blackhouse village just 65 years ago, with animals under the same thatched roof. Is her tidy modernity an improvement? No, she says. We agree we'd rather battle the elements than the technology providers as she hands me a leaflet with WiFi instructions. (As predicted, the dear Highland WiFi won't talk to my computer, though rather than getting furious I enjoy a chat with a taciturn character on Skye. He does all he can, and though it is unsuccessful, there's something nice about contacting someone in a spot I can picture on another of these isles. It makes me feel connected – who wants a WiFi connection anyhoo?) She tells me that Gaelic has only 16 letters (the sensible ones), hence some odd combinations to make some sounds, like mh or bh = v. She tells me about broad (open, I think) and slender (closed) vowels in Gaelic, and how each side of a consonant the vowels must both be broad or both be slender, so for example in 'abhainn' the second 'a' is a simple spelling convention and silent. The stress or accented syllable changes the meaning in this case: if pronounced /avee(g)n/, it means river, if /aavi(g)n/ it means oven. Our lesson is rudely interrupted by my smoke alarm the other side of the campsite as I left the grill on.
So the greens are crabbed, finished, packed up and sent back to the National Trust gallery on dear Dartmoor. I go to the arts centre, plug in my laptop, get online, order a weird combination of foodstuffs sort of by accident that doesn't work at all, and have grave difficulty focussing (not helped by a worried policeman's visit that turns a wee bit heavy as a well-spoken young lad makes an ill-received joke and then admirably defends his right not to give his personal details. There's a man gone missing near some cliffs. Fingers crossed for him and his loved ones.). I get very little work done, but do order a couple of useful things from eBay and enjoy giving my post restante address at Stornoway Post Office. Make that Post Restante. It feels exotic. The Post Office building is old and a little grand. Ondaatje's Royal Geographic Society's members in the English Patient probably had Post Restante addresses in Cairo. I don't know why that comes to mind, but logic is often a few steps behind instinct, I find (or a few miles, or a few hundred or even thousand years, come to that). Maybe I'm enjoying the ex-pat thing. I hate, as an outwardly Englishperson, to be a privileged incomer – always painful too when one is at least as poor materially but doesn't look or sound it – but though I am keen to be among the real Leodasachs, feel like an islander, maybe even *be* a crofter one day, I am also enjoying being a visitor: polite, alien, transient and anonymous. (A whole lot better than being alien in one's own community, whatever that is, or was!) Maybe also it's because the handsome postmaster is Canadian. He asks me whether I'm planning to live here and, vacant and startled, I smile wrongfootedly and offer a vague 'possibly'. I barely know who I am, let alone where I live. I forget what simple, practical question I have to ask him – gone. I'm feeling very spaced out and Piscean and loving it. Neptune is definitely working his magic on me here.
I park up on the inner harbour facing the woods in the castle grounds (where there are some great long walks for Murphy to enjoy, and some more oraches for me to forage) and 'stealth camp' undisturbed as I am not yet done in town. In the van-sized parking places I puzzle for quite a while over the sign that says 'Parking limited to 8 hours between 8am and 6pm' and struggle to get my head around what this libertarian rule means for me in a 24 hour stretch, and read the sign again a few times. I was clever once.
The next day I spend some more focussed hours sitting in the reference section of Stornoway Library using their internet (I know some of you dear readers are concerned about how I manage the pragmatics of life in a bus). Surrounded by local history archives and dictionaries, I feel at home, and like an undergrad again – languages, linguistics, and area studies: very much a part of what I'm doing here in the Outer Isles.
And on my return to the little bay, I'm assembling yarns for the next big weave: heathered rusts, browns, reds, teals, ochres and greens, subtly combined in a peatlands-and-seaweed-inspired Harris-style tweedy-but-irregular-and-organic run of coasters (which act as useful little samples to experiment with weft combinations and weave patterns), snugs and scarves. I have to concede that these smaller things have their place, as especially with this fine, pain-in-the-arse twisty, 'sticky' yarn, embarking on vast blanketry or 'clo mhor' (big cloth) whose colours and patterns I found I disliked once combined would leave me either wasting kilos and hours or committed to several weeks of laborious dissatisfaction. I have to be feeling bright and strong at this stage in the process, energised and inspired, with the patience to think thoroughly through design and loom set-up, and the confidence to begin. Not today, but tomorrow, I hope.

Dear Editor,
We can further clarify T. Tuuminen's suspicions of a conflict of interest.
Considering researcher AV, his role in the Social Insurance Institute of Finland does not cause any conflict of interest regarding this study. Social Insurance Institute of Finland is an organization where the research unit is administratively separate from the section where AV works as a part-time medical consult for a team which handles social security benefits. Thus, his part-time work (including the cases he handles) and our study do not have any interface. We have now declared all author affiliations with insurance companies, which however have no role in funding or initiating the study.
We would also like to correct some misunderstandings. First, mindfulness is not a method in our study. The scope of our study is precisely presented in Figure 1 of the article. We study factors which influence the recovery from non-specific symptoms. We do not study immunological mechanisms, nor question or oppose an immuno-toxicological mechanism explanation.
At the moment in Finland, indoor air related issues raise discussion and emotions. Our study hypothesis is based on a biopsychosocial model for non-specific, persistent symptoms associated with indoor air, which does not exclude the effect of environmental factors (Fig 1). We study whether there is a treatment effect on chronic, nonspecific symptoms. Registered RCT-studies with published protocols are scarce...Show MoreConflict of Interest:

Reply to S. Selinheimio
Dear Editor,
Thank you for your response in regards to the publication of Selinheimo S. et al. There remain several important issues of concern which I feel obliged despite a short format to explain explicitly.
In Finland, in 1995 and later in 2015 the §121 paragraph in the Finnish Employment Accident and Occupational Disease Law 459/2015 was added to the legislation. This paragraph grants insurance institute doctors an exceptional right to write out patient statements without complying with Act on Health Care Professionals 23 § adopted for certified medical statements. Putting it simply that means that a medical doctor from an insurance company does not need to sign patient statements through his/her honor and conscience, like any other health care professional. Due to the adoption of this shameful paragraph the social security of those patients who had accidents or got professional diseases has weakened dramatically. This paragraph has now got nearly 12 000 protests (1). In view of the exceptional rights of doctors working in insurance companies it is therefore difficult to assess their honesty and to know when he/she makes any kind of statements that complies with the accepted norms for medical professionals and when not.
The constitutional rights of Finnish patients suffering from poor indoor air are violated. FIOH exercises a great deal of psycologization and claims that...Show MoreConflict of Interest:

Dear Editor,
Tamara Tuuminen has raised concerns that the members of the research team could have had conflicting interests by their affiliations. We did not regard any affiliation to cause conflicts of interest regarding this protocol article. One member of the research group (AV) works part-time as a medical expert in Social Insurance Institute of Finland (KELA) and OP Insurance Ltd, and another (KK) in Varma Mutual Pension Insurance Company. None of these institutions profits financially or non-financially from studying and publishing the methods and results of this intervention study. Moreover, as mentioned in the manuscript, neither the authors' institutions nor the funders have any authority over trial activities or preparing of the manuscript.
By submitting a protocol paper, our intention was to make our work as transparent as possible. Indoor air associated chronic, non-specific symptoms are perpetuated and exacerbated by various factors. The RCT intervention study compares treatments to reduce symptoms and improve quality of life, regardless of the mechanisms behind the symptoms.
There is a lack of effective treatments for chronic environment-related symptoms with disability. Thus, our study represents one of the few RCT protocols for these patients. The intention of all stakeholders in Finland is to prevent and reduce disability.
On behalf of research group,

This past Thursday I volunteered as a photographer at the "INTO ACTION" exhibit. It's a large scale pop-up art exhibition, cultural gathering and community organizing action hub in Los Angeles, (near the LA Historic Park) featuring hundreds of inspiring works of art.
Instead of photographing the art, especially made by more well known artists (I see you Shepard Fairey) I focused on people observing the art. Besides the gallery, they have powerful panels, workshops, and live performances to help you turn ideas into action.
I saw a panel with the Olympian fencer, Ibtihaj Muhammad speaking about her activism! Folks were making posters in preparation to commemorate the one-year anniversary of the Women's March, that's taking place today! I invite you to check out Into Action after the march or instead of going to the march.
It's FREE, open to the public and they got events going on all day.
Watch out for the sound of glass shattering every 5 minutes (you'll see what I mean)
Show up for Democracy and Justice.
Pulled from the site: "INTO ACTION brings together hundreds of our nation's most prolific and talented visual artists, young activists, musicians, poets, policymakers and community leaders to face the pain and beauty of the year past, while we plan and organize for the year to come."

A beautiful apartment only 5/10 minutes away from city centre. The staff was very friendly and made us really welcome. Definitely will go back again. Love it
Beautiful old building stylishly converted into boutique apartments. Location is in a quieter part of Florence but still only 5 minutes stroll from Ponte Vecchio and tend the centre. A calm courtyard garden is the perfect place to relax after a days sightseeing. The staff are the perfect hosts.
A true treat, and located right next to a phenomenal steakhouse, as well as an amazing gelateria!
Beautiful palazzo. It has been restored with that Italian mix of sobriety and fun. The location can't be better, so near the centre without the inconvenience of traffic interdictions. The restaurant offer nearby is outstanding. Looking forward to return soon.
Good accommodation

Dragon Ball FighterZ just wrapped up its first ever world championship at Evo 2018, and its Twitch viewers - not counting the people watching in person - eclipsed even perennial Twitch champion Fortnite.
The final came down to two supremely talented players - the USA's SonicFox, and Japan's G01. G01 seemed to be on a winning streak, but after switching sides over a coin flip - a slightly unorthodox request from SonicFox - he was on the back foot.
RELATED: Dragon Ball FighterZ Is The Most Popular Fighting Game At Evo 2018
SonicFox's team of Bardock, Zamasu, and Android 16 managed to obtain something like Ultra Instinct and start predicting - and perfectly countering - all of g01's moves. g01's Cell, Vegeta, Bardock team couldn't keep up, and SonicFox was declared the winner.
During the match, the viewership on Twitch continued to climb, mostly thanks to passionate fans spreading the link on Twitter and, perhaps, urging Ninja, the popular Fortnite streamer, to just go offline for a moment and keep the dream alive.

When the match started, viewership was just over 200,000 - but by the end, it had soared to nearly 250,000, leaving Fortnite in its dust, which at that point had started to drop down to about 220,000. Were people leaving the Fortnite streams to catch up on what was, essentially, the only good episode of Dragon Ball since the '90s? Who's to say.

Still, the best part of the night happened immediately after the match, when SonicFox whipped out his phone to send off a quick, but important, tweet.
im gay— Echo Fox | SonicFox (@SonicFox5000) August 6, 2018
also the best dbfz player on this fucking planet dont forget it.
It's telling about this niche but inclusive community that the only really negative reactions to his tweet were about the side-switching.

时间 : 2018年10月09日 09时00分
地点 : 重庆融汇丽笙酒店
主讲人 : Abdennour El Rhalibi (IEEE Fellow) 等
Lecture 1: Digital Healthcare Security
Healthcare is an essential part of the national critical infrastructure network. Of the four critical infrastructures (safety, mission, business and security), hospital infrastructures are a mission-critical infrastructure. Damage to network communications and the loss of patient data would have a detrimental impact on the health provision. Additionally, many lifesaving medical devices, used by health care infrastructures, are vulnerable to attacks from the digital domain. Pacemakers for example, are calibrated wireless and have none or very little security in place. Medical devices are often limited in their computational and communication capabilities. Such devices are not built to accommodate computationally exhaustive operations. Similarly, most medical devices have low on-device memory, leading to the challenge that they are not able to execute complicated security protocols. Wireless s and open connections, present on medical devices, can also be compromised by attackers. Adversaries can manipulate the data transmitted and received by the device, alter dosages, and even turn devices off, putting patients' lives at risk. However, a notable concern is that a successful attack on such device, presents an opportunity for an attacker to gain backdoor access into a healthcare infrastructure. This essentially allows attackers to bypass the network authentication infrastructure required to access systems containing sensitive personal data. In this talk Prof. Abdennour El Rhalibi will present challenges and solutions in digital healthcare security techniques relying on machine learning, visualisation techniques and IDS. The presentation will also include an overview of the research carried out at the Protect Centre.
Lecture 2: Optical Fiber Sensors and Applications
Optical fiber- d devices have been widely deployed in recent years. There are many advantages of using fiber as a sensor. These include electrically-passive operation, light weight, immunity to radio frequency interference and electromagnetic interference, high sensitivity, compact size, corrosion resistance, easily multiplexing and potentially low cost. Several novel fiber- d sensors and technologies developed are presented here, including fiber Bragg grating (FBG) d sensors, photonic crystal fiber (PCF) d sensors, specialty fiber- d sensors and distributed fiber sensing systems. FBGs as instinctive sensors, are ingeniously designed as two-dimensional (2D) tilt sensors, displacement sensors, accelerometers and corrosion sensors here; PCF d evanescent field absorption sensor, PCF induced Mach-Zehnder interferometer and Fabry-Perot refractometer for temperature and refractive index sensing are presented; d on localized surface Plasmon resonant (LSPR) effect, nano-sized fiber tip with gold nanoparticles are demonstrated for live cell index 15bio-sensing applications.
Lecture 3: Cognitive Industrial Internet of Things and 5G MTC's Role
Industrial internet of things (IIoT), by providing connectivity to machines, robots, and sensors, etc, enables data intelligence-assisted information technology (IT) and operation technology (OT) convergence. In IIoT, multi-disciplinary research on communications, storage, computing and data analysis, control and management, and security, as well as cross-disciplinary system-level design optimization is needed, with built-in autonomous learning and adaptation capabilities. In this talk, we will start with a brief introduction to IIoT, and then share the IIoT research and design challenges. A design approach will then be proposed to overcome these challenges, under the theme of cognitive IIoT in which the device and the network will build up learning capabilities for context-aware resource, interference, and mobility management, automated fault detection and recovery, and robust connectivity; multi-modal security detection capability
is incorporated into the device and network for real-time anomaly and security detection and management. The interactive and cooperative edge-cloud analytics will also be introduced to enable low-latency real-time actionable insight and robust feature engineering. Finally, the 5G's role, especially the 5G machine-type communications (MTC), from both the massive MTC aspect, and the ultra-reliable low latency communications (uRLLC) aspect, will be discussed.

Within a deeply partisan environment, Washington D.C. Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton (D) showed that it is possible to reach across the aisle to tackle an issue that affects us all: climate change.
On March 7, Norton announced that she was joining the Climate Solutions Caucus alongside Rep. Jenniffer González Colón (R) of Puerto Rico, tweeting, "Combating climate change has long been one of my top priorities. Even with Trump pulling the U.S. out of Paris Climate Accord, we're still working on bipartisan solutions in Congress, and businesses and states are implementing strategies to save the planet."
Norton and Colón have now brought membership in the Climate Solutions Caucus up to 72 – a remarkable feat given that the caucus is strictly bipartisan. Originally founded by Florida Reps. Carlos Curbelo (R) and Ted Deutch (D), the caucus requires every new member bring a member of the opposite party as well. The fact 36 Republicans have now joined alongside 36 Democrats (barely two years after the caucus' inception) shows that climate does not have to be quite as partisan as we thought.
By partnering with Colón to join the caucus, Norton is also giving an important voice to Puerto Rico. Although Washington, D.C. is not yet facing the worst effects of climate change, Puerto Rico has been enduring unusually terrible storms. Hurricane Maria, which struck on Sept. 20, 2017, was the most powerful storm to hit Puerto Rico in more than 80 years, and thousands remain without power almost six months later. D.C. has been widely criticized for its inadequate response to Puerto Rico's needs – which makes Norton's partnership with Colón all the more important.
On a more local level, Norton's decision to join the Climate Solutions Caucus shows a deep level of responsiveness to her constituents. As a D.C. resident for almost seven years, I recently became involved with Citizens Climate Lobby to work towards bipartisan solutions to climate change. Although I have never been politically active before, I participated in writing letters and making phone calls to Norton's office. At first, I was not sure whether it was realistic to expect any change. When Norton officially joined the caucus, I felt deeply reassured that Norton does in fact hear and respond to her constituents.
While joining the Climate Solutions Caucus is a great first step, the work is not over yet. We D.C. residents need to continue to tell Norton that climate issues matter to us. We need to continue to ask her to speak up for climate issues. Because when we do so, we know that we are being heard.

You are currently browsing the category archive for the 'Castilla La Mancha' category.
Some of you have suggested I write a follow up on my last post "Pairing wines and books", this time on pairing wine and poetry. Others have asked me for recommendations of wines to celebrate St. Valentine's Day. I am learning not to ignore a la Mubarak the wishes of my constituency, so here are some musings about both topics.
Luckily, I have come across three wines lately that you could serve to enjoy dinner aux chandeliers with a loved one. Each of them is so attractive that can be described through the work of my favorite poets.
The first one is Viña Ardanza reserva 2001, a classic Rioja that I had not drank in ages and that in 20011 has the most beautiful red color that can be imagined. It is so delicate that it reminded me of William Blake's famous poem, "Love's secret", where he describes why love cannot, should not, be communicated, "Never seek to tell thy love / Love that never told can be/ For the gentle wind does move/ Silently, invisibly".
The second wine is Jorge Ordoñez's Volver 2008, from Castilla la Mancha, young and impetuous, like the passions full of demands and despair that John Hegley describes in his poems. In spite of its Almodovar name, Volver is a wine worth trying, that seduces you from the very first moment you taste it: "You stepped into the café / then you sat next to me/ I'd just ordered breakfast/ and you were my cup of tea (…) You said you painted portraits/ and you'd like a go at mine/ you said come up to my studio/ and be my turpentine".
The third wine is Chivite Merlot Ecológico 2007, a new wine from this well-established winery in Navarre, made according to high ecological standards. Merlot is one of the grapes that always reminds me of why I love wine. Chivite has created a wine out of this world, delicate, pure, and worthwhile. It is one of those wines that you can remember with the verse "one hour was sunlit", from Ezra Pound's poem "Erat Hora":
"Thank you, whatever comes". And then she turned
And, as the ray of sun on hanging flowers
Went swiftly from me. Nay, whatever comes
One hour was sunlit and the most high gods
May not make boast of any better thing
Than to have watched that hour as it passed.

My husband and I think we have clarity concerning family dramas; certainly our geographical distance from most family members allows us to weed out the BS and clearly focus on the true issue. Sometimes this super power is a good thing. And sometimes it gets us into hot water.
The good: You will only see us sigh, be uncharacteristically silent, and basically pretend like we are invisible when in the immediate presence of drama. When family members call us with a grievance about another family member, we acknowledge their issue, restate in our own words, briefly argue the other side, give suggestions only if asked, and sign off with a "good luck and let us know how it turns out." Then we drink a toast to being umpteen miles away from that mess. And also for not being in the center of it.
The bad: Sometimes when the issue lies with us, we cannot physically be present to duke it out, resolve the situation, and then hug it out. Just not good. Fights on the phone are long, drawn out, and it is too easy to accidentally hang up. Oops! Also in this category are on-going never-ending issues that fail to improve, yet the lament is just too juicy to not hear every detail on the phone and get sucked into the drama all over again. You aren't there for the battle, but sure wish you were so that you could have your say as well. Then, as with the good, we drink a toast that we are umpteen miles away.
The ugly: Involves festering wounds. Just sounds nasty and indeed, it is. Distance, both physical and mental, allows time for new things to pop up or old things to fester. The drama only builds and then explodes at the most inopportune time and usually at a family gathering. No toasts here my friends. This is the worst of the worst. Distance also makes it very convenient to not take an issue seriously. And hell hath no fury like a family member taken lightly.
The truth: The truth is we could care less about most of the drama. Every day we come into contact with deployed families and every couple of years deal with moving, new jobs, new schools, new houses, no friends, and now you want us to assist with that ax you have to grind? No, thanks. It may sound cold. It may even be dismissive, but when it comes to small petty dramas, we are done with playing an active role. We can't, no, we won't get on the family drama merry-go-round. It is called self preservation...we can't handle our own drama if we are wrapped up in yours. Sometimes we do have to get in the middle, and if we do, it will be short and sweet.
While stationed in Florida, I found a drink koozie at a gas station which pretty much states the guidelines for life:
"Never sweat the petty things. And never pet the sweaty things."Yes, of course I bought it. Clarity at its best.

Auckland hosting LPGA 'a game change for local visitor economy'
Today's announcement that Auckland is to host the LPGA-sanctioned McKayson New Zealand Open next year is a potential game changer for the region's visitor economy – which is already Auckland's largest and fastest-growing industry.
The four-day tournament at the new Windross Farm course at Ardmore will play a key role in the growth of Auckland's visitor economy, which is currently worth $7 billion to the region and is expected to grow by more than $2 billion in the next four years.
It offers an unprecedented opportunity to showcase Auckland to its three main visitor markets, China, the USA and Australia, and secondary markets including Korea, Japan, Singapore, the Philippines, Indonesia and Thailand.
The LPGA event, led by Auckland's own Lydia Ko, will showcase local golf courses, landscapes and tourism experiences – to the premium visitor and golfing market through broadcast coverage that will potentially reach 175 countries and more than 250 million households.
As the region's economic growth agency, Auckland Tourism, Events and Economic Development (ATEED) is investing in the event on behalf of Auckland Council. Auckland's investment will total just over $1 million per annum for three years.
Golf tourism to New Zealand grew to about $330 million in the year to August, and ATEED believes the LPGA's presence in Auckland will help put its increasing number of world-class courses on the radar of international golf tourists from Auckland's three most important markets – China, the US, and Australia – and two secondary markets Korea (home of sponsor sports leisure company McKayson) and Japan.
The event is expected to deliver up to 13,000 visitor nights in Auckland's shoulder tourism season, and generate up to $1.3 million a year new money for Auckland's economy, with additional significant international media exposure value. McKayson's title sponsorship alone will inject new money into the regional economy.
Auckland Mayor Phil Goff says having star Kiwi Lydia Ko and 100 of the world's elite women golfers in Ko's home town will be fantastic for Auckland: "This will be a great showcase for Auckland, taking our city to millions of people in high-value tourism markets in China, Australia, the US and UK.
"Golf is a huge passion across Asia, the USA and Australia, and golfers are a priority special interest travel market segment for Auckland."
ATEED's focus on high-value visitors and investors from China is delivered via a golf, equine, marine and screen (GEMS) programme, and this includes a strong partnership with China's largest golf resort operator – Mission Hills China – and also the Nicklaus Club in Beijing.
"As a result of our efforts over a number of years, Auckland now regularly welcomes large groups of passionate Chinese golfers who are also influential business people and investors," says Brett O'Riley, ATEED Chief Executive.
"Many choose to stay in luxury accommodation and spend on luxury experiences, and ATEED introduces them to a range of investment and business opportunities while they are here.
"Conservative estimates show China will have 20 million golfers by the year 2020, and this tournament will allow Auckland to tap into this rapidly expanding market."
ATEED will work with partners to develop business and investment showcasing alongside the McKayson New Zealand Open.
Brett O'Riley says: "We will look to showcase Auckland's emerging advanced industries and reputation as an innovation hub of the Asia-Pacific, and promote engagement with Auckland growth companies."
The tournament's location in South Auckland is expected to have a positive impact on employment and accommodation providers in the immediate region, and showcase the level of new development in the city's south.
"We have been working with Panuku Development Auckland and private land owners on opportunities for new hotels in South Auckland, including golf resorts," says Brett O'Riley.
"The tournament will deliver thousands of international and domestic visitors in the traditional shoulder season, aligning with our work to expand the length of the busy season to grow jobs and infrastructure."
Without public investment, this event could not be hosted in Auckland or delivered in New Zealand, he says.
The tournament week will incorporate ancillary events to maximise media exposure, event promotions, community and fan engagement and build legacy benefits for golf in the region.

Help identify historic photos
Do these photographs from the Milo Burston collection look familiar to you? If you can help identify the people in these photos, your help is appreciated.
The Northeast Michigan Genealogical Society has been placing photos and negatives of Milo Burston's collection into archival envelopes and creating a database now for 14 years at the Besser Museum.
It is sad when when there is a photo with only a date to identify it. This probably occurred as Milo knew these people well and he would have no problem identifying them in the picture.
The Northeast Michigan Genealogical Society is asking the community to assist in identifying the individuals in these photos.
Please call the Besser Museum for Northeast Michigan at 989-356-2202 if you know the names of the individuals in these photographs at the right, provided by the genealogical society.

Magical stone with a naturally-occurring hole, hung on a necklace...
Charged in possession trance...
(Click here to buy now)
Wear as a "wishing stone" and to attract good luck; also keeps away misfortune and prevent nightmares (Mounted on 24″ brown leather cord).
In folklore, Hagstones were seen as very lucky artefacts that were often used as "wishing stones" and for attracting good luck. They were also thought to prevent nightmares and generally prevent misfortune…
Hagstones are found in coastal areas, and by rivers and streams. The hole in a Hagstone is naturally-occurring, typically the result of weathering or erosion from running water.
Other names for Hagstones include Adder Stones, Druid Glass and Faery Stones, all of which echo the magical properties these stones were thought to have.
Folk belief had it that good luck could fit through the hole in a Hagstone, but bad luck couldn't – thus the stones were considered lucky. It was the same with nightmares. Only good dreams could get through the hole, not bad dreams.
The Hagstones I have on offer, I collect personally on coastal and countryside walks, which I do regularly. Often I might sit down by a river and spot a Hagstone. I've been doing this for years and have a fair collection of naturally-occurring Hagstones.
Thus I decided to fix some up to be worn by anybody that requires some extra luck, or a "wishing stone" they can have with them at all times.
By wearing a Hagstone you are connecting yourself to the flow of the multiverse, and the infinite abundance that is there at all times if you but tap into it.
Each Hagstone is mounted on a 24-inch brown leather cord. Bear in mind each stone is a natural product, so the look of stones will vary from the photos on this page.

Sex has now become a way to release tension. When there is sexual energy, the first instinct is to release it. This happens because of a biological need to procreate. However, sex should be and can be made spiritual and operate on a higher plane.
Sex is not ordinary anymore. It is a form of creating and expressing. Kundalini energy is the energy along your spine. It rises up to activate your mind in the center of the brain.
Tantric sex embraces both these aspects by activating the kundalini. It is not simple to master, but it can be used to achieve great levels of both sexual and spiritual satisfaction.
Here are 5 steps to have tantric sex:
1. Eye contact and deep breathing
Gazing into eyes is very intimate. Face each other and lock your eyes. For the needed connection, look into each others' eyes and not back and forth between the two eyes. This makes you stay open with your partner in all mental, physical and spiritual aspects.
2. "Yab-Yum" position.
Yab-Yum is a Tibetan phrase that means "father-mother". This facilitates the highest intimacy level between a couple and makes the couple attain a higher vibration. Wrap your legs around your partner's waist and ask your partner to do the same. Inhale deep into the stomach and continue looking into the eyes of your partner.
3. Breathing syncronized
First, inhale and exhale together. Then switch to inhaling when your partner exhales and exhaling when your partner inhales. The female starts the cobra breath afterward. This breath technique is a potent source of power. This controls the sexual energy and is used to elevate consciousness. It pulls Shakti (bioelectric energy) and allows the kundalini energy to move up the spine easily.
4. Letting go of obstructive thoughts
Not letting the mind wander; bringing back focus to your partner is an important part of this intimate process. Minds always have thoughts that come in the way; you should clear them up and focus.
Both the processes of Fire Breath Orgasm and Cobra Breath in conjunction create a massive flow of energy as both of them clear all the blockages in between the path of your chakra and allow the energy to flow with ease.

This is the engineering deck. The car deck will sit above, but here it was still open to the rain and snow making for a difficult work environment. The sooner the car deck goes on the easier it will be to complete the interior welding.

Starboard sponson installation.
Almost ready for the car deck to be installed on this section, enclosing the mid-ship from the weather.
While the construction continues outside on the build grid the guys in the shop are fabricating the hull modules for the next two 32' sections of the vessel. The next sections will house the forward and aft engine rooms.

While living in Costa Rica I was fortunate enough to work together with a number of different restaurants, cafés and tour operators. I had the opportunity to work on my restaurant photography and writing skills. One of the best places I got to work with was FRANCO. This restaurant in Barrio Escalante serves amazing coffee, delicious breakfast and has a mouth-watering lunch and brunch menu. Not to speak about the cakes on display in front of their open kitchen.
The light at FRANCO was perfect to get some good shots from their breakfast and coffees. I highly recommend visiting this place if you ever happen to find yourself in San José, Costa Rica. It's the perfect place to start the day. Oh, and they open at 7AM! So also ideal for early birds.
FRANCO is a modern restaurant in San José, Costa Rica. Its first and foremost focus is on good coffee. The baristas at FRANCO know what they are doing and have passion for their job. The place has a wonderful open kitchen which serves a well-rounded menu that can serve any tourist and local alike. Breakfast, brunch, lunch, cocktails, you name it. The restaurant is owned by César, who is Costa Rican and Brandon from America. Their combined knowledge and skills make this place truly thrive.
