"I'm so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers." – L. M. Montgomery.
Very surprisingly, I bought very few books this month. I bought one book as a Christmas present for a friend, and the exact same book for myself. Then my mum bought me a book near the end of the month. That's it. Two books for myself. This has got to be some kind of record! As a result, I decided that I am going to share other things I have bought throughout the month in addition to my books.
Harry Potter: Illustrated Edition.
I am sure that many of you have heard by now that early this month a new Harry Potter book was released. It wasn't a new story with a new adventure, but it was the first book of the series with lots and lots of illustrations. What can I say? It's beautiful.
There are magnificent pictures, some of which take up whole pages and there are even additional pages, but I won't spoil the surprise on what those are about; you'll know them when you see them. I definitely recommend this book for anybody who is a massive Harry Potter fan, or even anyone with young children who I am sure would really enjoy all of the illustrations.
My second book for this month is Girl Online On Tour by Zoe Sugg.
I really enjoyed Zoe's first book (reviewed here) and I regretted not buying it sooner. However, it did mean that I had a shorter wait until the release of Girl Online On Tour, so that doesn't bother me too much.
I have actually already read this. I received it last Friday, read a couple of chapters and then dedicated the whole of Sunday to it. Usually, I just add new books to the bottom of the pile on my bedside table, but this was one book I was looking forward to, so I had to read it almost straight away. As a result, since buying it, I have had time to read all of it and review it so please click here to read my review for Girl Online On Tour.
The rest of this post now is, unfortunately, not book related. However, I did manage to grab more beauty products than I expected this month.
Three lipsticks in one month? Lucky me! But we'll get to that later…
Tragically, my black converses ripped earlier this month after I attended a Fall Out Boy concert (which was incredible), but as a result I needed some new ones for everyday wear, especially when I ripped my red ones last year and never replaced them.
I swear in the last few years converses have grown more and more expensive, so I had to put these on my mum's Next card and Next were sadly out of black ones, so I had to settle for blue. Either way, I'm still happy because I have never had converses in this colour before and it's good to mix things up a bit sometimes. At least blue goes with everything and because they are so dark I wouldn't be surprised if they ever get mistaken for black.
I actually bought two check shirts this month, but the second is in the wash from where I've been wearing it so much. I have loads of check shirts now, but I can never resist buying more! Plaid is definitely my favourite kind of pattern. This month I bought this yellow one pictured on the right and a grey one.
One thing people always get obsessed about this time of the year is plaid. I don't understand it's connection with this time of year opposed to any other, but at the same time I am all for wearing lots of it!
Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer.
This product is a repeat purchase because it is one of my favourite concealers.
I use this concealer to help brighten up areas of my face and I use it on days I try to wear minimal makeup in order to help cover redness and even out my skin-tone a bit. This makes this particular concealer ideal because it is light in terms of it being brightening and in terms of coverage as it doesn't dry my skin out as much as other concealers.
Earlier this week I wrote a detailed review on this lipstick so I am not going to go in a lot of detail now. I am simply going to say that I really like this lipstick, because it has great staying power, great colour and not too bad a scent (smell is important to me).
Also, for those interested, this lipstick is in the shade 810 "One-of-a-Kind" and there are more images including a swatch of this lipstick included in the review linked above.
Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in the shade Black Cherry.
As you already saw from my autumn lipstick favourites, I love dark, purple-toned lipsticks and my latest purchase is no exception.
Revlon lipsticks are not exactly my favourite lipsticks, plus they don't have the lovely vanilla scent like lots of other brands, but they do have a good colour selection. As a result of this, every now and then I have to give in and buy one of their lipsticks.
Black Cherry is, in my opinion, another one of those very autumnal lipsticks. However, it is definitely darker and more purple than any of the red lipsticks I mentioned in that post, so while it does have a reddish undertone, it is more dominantly purple.
Revlon ColorBurst Matte Balm in the shade Sultry.
I have tried Revlon's ColorBurst Balms twice before, so I currently have slightly mixed expectations for this product. The matte balm I already had I found to be quite patchy on the lips and the other balm I had (not matte) in the shade Honey I really like and it was one I wore almost everyday to college. As a result I was a little anxious to try this lipstick because I really wanted to like it, but I didn't want to be disappointed.
Due to my anxiousness to try it, I did a swatch of it on my lips and I am happy to say that I really like it.
As I mentioned, the formula is matte, but it isn't like my previous experience with the Revlon matte balms. This balm isn't patchy on my lips, has great colour pay-off and it leaves my lips feeling extremely soft.
Similar to the other Revlon ColorBurst Balms, this product has a mint scent, but it isn't noticeable except for when you're actually applying the product which is quite nice. The shade I bought, Sultry, wasn't exactly how I expected it, but I am not disappointed either. I expected it to be a bit more of a nude brown, but it's actually rather pink. In fact, it reminds me a little of a darker, matte version of Tanya Burr's lipgloss in Berry Picking.
Overall, I am very happy with all of the products I have purchased this month. The illustrated Harry Potter was definitely worth the money, Girl Online On Tour I had been looking forward to reading ever since I read Zoe's first book, check shirts are just necessary in my everyday wardrobe and all of the makeup items did not let me down.
Tell me, what did you purchase this month?

Pic of the day: Bursting the Balloon, political cartoon from 1844.
Click the link above to see a full-sized version of the cartoon. Call this a premature celebration, showing Henry Clay and his VP Frelinghuysen rising up and James Polk falling. Polk defeated Clay in a very close 1844 election.
No president who performs his duties faithfully and conscientiously can have any leisure. If he entrusts the details and smaller matters to subordinates constant errors will occur. I prefer to supervise the whole operations of the government myself rather than entrust the public business to subordinates, and this makes my duties very great.
James K. Polk, diary entry from 1848
Viddy of the day; Checking in: Health Care Reform across the country.
Healthcare reform would improve individual insurance. At least according to the article I read on a site called nurse.com. It is a very short article about how insurance costs to the individual would be affected by the scheduled introduction of the new health care exchanges, which take effect in 2014. The article makes the point that individual insurance market will drastically change, for the better as I read it, for the purchaser when the exchanges come into being.
Should they come into being. If the Supreme court holds back and does not dismantle this portion of the affordable healthcare act. I am not holding my breath waiting for them to make a decision in favor of the customers here. During the last few years, during the regime of Roberts court, business has made out extraordinarily well. I do not expect that to change over much. If insurance companies will make out better without the law, they being good businessmen, will accede to the demands of the insurance companies.
Especially if Justice Thomas has anything to do with it, he being as politically active in extreme right wing politics he and his wife are and have been.
If you read near the bottom of this article, you will read where a Senator from the state of disbelief (aka Texas) said something unbelievably dumb. He said that Uncertainty over taxes was damaging to the economy.
Uncertainty over taxes is damaging to the economy?
Uncertainty over taxes is damaging to the economy?
BULLSHIT! The usual stupid bullshit that makes sure that the rich pay less than the poor tax-wise is damaging the economy. Screw you, Sen. John Cornyn. You sir, are an idiot! And if you read the rest of his diatribe, you can see just how much of a lying sack of shit John boy is.
And the President is right, congress needs to get their asses moving on that jobs bill. Unless the Republican house likes looking tentative in the face of increasing economic uncertainty.
Read the article, please.
That's it from here, America. G'night!

Now that we are deep into this election year, it is important for us as Christians to be reminded of the doctrine of the two kingdoms, which states that God rules through two kingdoms: the secular (or lefthand) kingdom and the heavenly (or righthand) kingdom.
We as Christians live in both kingdoms.
The secular, lefthand kingdom operates through government officials and through the laws set in place. The Bible is clear that we must obey the rules of order established by our leaders in government and that we must pray for those in authority over us.
As St. Paul says, "Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God" (Romans 13:1).
We may not agree with everything that our leaders do, but it is our calling to live as good citizens in this country that God has given to us and that means voting for who we think would be best for our nation and then letting who is elected lead. Hard to do sometimes, of course, when those we vote for do not win. But that is when we need to leave the outcome up to God and trust that he has a plan in mind.
The heavenly, righthand kingdom operates simultaneously with the secular kingdom, but it is ruled by Christ, who is seated at the right hand of his Father on the throne above. His rule is absolute and our ultimate loyalty as Christians is to him.
We are citizens of this divine kingdom, not by a bill passed in Congress, but by grace through faith in the suffering, death and resurrection of Christ. We are new creations through him. The old is gone. The new has come.
Our role as citizens of the heavenly kingdom is to live by the Spirit and respond to the gift of faith we have been given through Christ by acting in ways that bring glory to God in our neighborhoods, communities, and, yes, even in our city halls and voting booths.
I find comfort in knowing that no matter who becomes president this year, my supreme Leader will always be Christ, who has put everything under his feet, and I will live in his kingdom forevermore.

Congress Passes First Step Act
On Tuesday, the Senate passed the First Step Act with an overwhelming vote of 87 to 12. Earlier today the House of Representatives followed suit, passing the bill with a vote of 358-36.
As reported by The Washington Post, President Trump expressed his support for the bill via a series of tweets and is expected to sign it.
This criminal justice reform bill only applies to federally incarcerated people, who make up about 10% of the total incarcerated population. The bill, which lays out plans to revise federal sentencing guidelines and offer clemency for certain federal offenders, was a bipartisan effort.
Co-sponsor Sen. Partick Leahy (D-Vt.) said "The First Step Act represents years of bipartisan work to address some of the most egregious and unjust outcomes in our criminal justice system. While our work is not done, these reforms, and how senators came together to produce them, represent the best of the Senate, and it will make a real difference in the lives of so many."
However, The Washington Post reports that "even some GOP supporters fear [supporting the bill] could leave them vulnerable to charges of being soft on crime," despite the fact that it is expected to save money by reducing the prison population.
The Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association (FLEOA), whose opposition to the bill was previously reported by FEDagent, remains opposed to the bill. FLEOA President Nate Catura stated, "Although the First Step Act included many provisions that FLEOA supported, we felt it was too soft on criminals and neglected to sufficiently protect victims and society. FLEOA supported the addition of amendments sponsored by Senators Cotton and Kennedy that would have made the First Step Act more balanced. These amendments were not included in the final bill. As a result, FLEOA feels that the First Step Act is deeply flawed and its implementation precarious."

There are some detractors of Ben Davies, but for Sean Mort he's the perfect understudy to Danny Rose and more importantly a perfect squad player for Tottenham
During the last few years not many players have inspired more debate than our second choice left back – Ben Davies. A player who always works diligently whenever called upon, who is never injured, who has never shown signs of any discontent, who was not signed for an outrageous fee and who is still just 25 years old, it would seem as though there could be little cause for complaint in our reserve left back.
Yet from certain quarters there are murmurs of discontent. He's not good enough. He doesn't get forward enough. He has a low ceiling. Tottenham are an improving club and a club (like many others) with big ambitions, so what exactly can we expect from our squad players? What's the DNA of the perfect understudy?
Ideally you want someone who is equally as good as the first choice. But if you have an 8 out of 10 left back, it's very difficult to sign another 8 out of 10 to sit on the bench at a club which doesn't promise you any silverware. Spurs' experience trying manage four strikers all with similar goalscoring ability (the Bent, Defoe, Keane, Berbatov days) was not a blueprint that is likely to be repeated.
You want someone who will fight for a place in the first team, but not be disruptive if they are continually overlooked. Someone that will cheer from the bench as the team scores even if it further undermines their chance of a first team start. Someone who will warm up diligently even if they know they know they're not going to get on.
Skill, patience, diligence, ambition – it's extremely difficult to find all these qualities in a footballer. The most talented understudies are those displaced from their position in the first team, but those are the ones who are most unsettled with their bum on a bench; and in Spurs' current position -recruiting a player that will push Son, Eriksen or Vertongen to the bench will cost an unprecedented fee and are increasingly different to identify and recruit.
The key quality which has not been mentioned, and which is the most important in an understudy to a club like Spurs is versatility. A player who is a seven 7 out of 10 in one position is no use to Spurs. However, if that player can play at that level in two or even three positions they become invaluable.
Versatility means being able to manage a smaller squad. It means you don't need a second striker because your winger can finish. It means you can bring on a midfielder if your centre back is injured with your defensive midfielder pushing back into defence. It means room on the bench for more attacking options, or youth players. It means the ability to change formation without changing personnel. For these reasons and more, versatility is one of the key principles of Pochettino's philosophy, and the reason for so much calm inside the club at our recent barren transfer window.
Manchester City can have two great players for every position. They can sign second choice players for big money on huge wages with the promise of challenging for silverware every year. Spurs cannot. The DNA of the perfect understudy at Spurs is a player who is young, versatile and capable. I propose that Ben Davies represents the perfect understudy. He's able to play at centre back or left back, puts in solid performances whenever called upon and is apparently very straightforward to manage.
The aforementioned murmerers no doubt want an improvement on Danny Rose. However, would Danny Rose be an effective understudy? Or is he likely to become unsettled? Train a little more gently. Put on a little bit of weight. Be less effective when finally called upon for cup games. Force Pochettino to pick an extra central defender on the bench. Eventually ask for a move and force to club to again go back to the transfer market for another left back.
The role of the understudy is often a thankless task. As a defender you can go months without playing. As an attacker you're often asked to make an impact in the last 15 minutes of a game with players around you fully up to speed, judged alongside players who have had a run of games to find their form. It's equally hard to recruit and manage your squad players, but I think it's another area of Pochettino's management that he's got spot on.

Charity Day: When the world of the financial markets east in first line to come to the rescue of childhood and the medical research
BGC Partners is an American service company, world leader on the financial markets. Its offices were located at the 105ème stage of One World Trade Center.
At the time of the attack against the Twin Towers on September 11th, 2001, the group lost 658 collaborators, that is to say a quarter of the victims of this horrible attack.
After having transferred 25% of its annual results to the families of the victims during 4 years, BGC decided to set up starting from 2005 a day of annual charity, the birthday day of the attack. At the time of this international day of solidarity, baptized "Charity Day", the company and its 18 subsidiaries transfer the entirety of the sales turnover of the Group to the associations, acquired thanks to the implication of celebrities who for the occasion transformed themselves into "brokers" in order to carry out the most transactions possible in space of a few hours and to make some profit the association which they represent. A different associative topic is selected every year in each country. Since 2005, 150 dollars million was recovered thanks to the godmothers and godfathers of associations and their aptitudes to record Stock Exchange orders with the assistance of professional brokers.
For the edition 2018, the French subsidiary Aurel BGC accommodated about fifty personalities which followed one another in the offices and for some, it was not the first time.
Associations were selected according to their achievements, their projects, their field of intervention and their serious. The majority of them are in keeping with sick and underprivileged childhood. We find thus in the prize list, the Foundation Arthritis, Foundation ICM, the Foundation Alzheimer, the Small Princes, Espérance Banlieues, the Good Fairies, the Kings of the world, these 4 last referring to the children.
The Arthritis Foundation: engaged in research on the polyarthritis since nearly 30 years; the universe of the sport was mobilized there with the tennis player Michaël Llodra, the athlete Muriel Hurtis, the rugbymen Pascal Papé and Marc Lièvremont (for the second time), but also the actors Julie Ferrier (presents last year) and Arnaud Ducret, Joyce Jonathan, Elodie Gossuin, Nicolas Canteloup, Margot Laffite, Vincent Guérin, Albert Spano and several players of the ADZE 1976 of which Dominique Bathenay and Jean–Michel Larque. lLa communication on the serious diseases and handicapping as of more the young age is in the center of the work of the association which books each year more than one million euros to research, that is to say 10 million euros since its creation.
– the ICM, the Institute of the Brain and Moelle Épinière were created in 2006, it supported by the racing driver Paul Belmondo, Jean Todt and Philippe Candéloro (these the last 2 present last year). Opened since 2010 with Pity–Salpétrière an international action has. The ICM profit from an ecosystem privileged with its specialized staff. He became in less than 10 years, the first center of référenceen neurosciences in France and 3rd at the European level.
The Foundation for Research on Alzheimer, created in 2004 with Pity–Salpétrière, takes part in Charity Day for the first time, represented by Chantal Ladessous (for the second time this year), the song writers and performers Pierre and Alain Souchon, the mannequin Estelle Lefébure, the actor Michel Boujenah, as well as the presenter Tele Stéphane Plaza which made their baptism of fire. It is the only association dedicated to the clinical research in France wishing to fight the disease. Each year, 500,000 to more than one million euros have been versed for research for 14 years.
Small Princes represented by the presenter radio operator Manu Lévy, the journalist Marie Drucker and the singer Tal as well as the presenter and actor Julien Courbet. Association born in 1987 realizes dreamed of the children and seriously sick teenagers, reached cancers, leukaemias and certain genetic diseases… It is a link for 150 hospital services in France. Each day, one dreamed of child is carried out and it is the case of more than 6,700 since 1987.
The Good Fairies, association created in 2015 by 15 Miss France, had as ambassadresses Sylvie Tellier, chief executive officer of the company Miss France, accompanied by Mareva Galanter, Corinne Coman, Maeva Coucke (Miss France 2018), Melody Vilbert, Alicia Aylies, Camille Cerf, the presenter tele Valérie Damidot, all already present last year and this year a new arrival Alexandra Rosenfeld. The collections of funds just like finance research programs specific sensitization operations on the ground or of assistance to general public.
Association Espérance Banlieues, les' humorists Olivier de Benoist and Sandrine Sarroche took down the telephone to raise a maximum of funds at the time of this exceptional day. Founded in 2012 by Eric Mestrallet, the purpose of association is to create and develop schools deprived except contract bringing an alternative solution, pragmatic and especially adapted to the specific needs of the disadvantaged districts.
The Kings of the World, created in 2012, this association made up of 34 voluntary credits, helps the orphans hospitalized and needy in France, establishing a link between hospital and houses of children by organizing cultural outputs, workshops discovered. At the time of the festivals of end of the year, association traverses France accompanied by queens of the world who become "Mothers Christmas", Mickey and Minnie which distribute gifts. For "Charity Day, the artist and sculptor Richard Orlinski as well as the presenter TV Laurent Boyer, transformed themselves into brokers for the second consecutive year.
Charity Day really became an institution for the world of associations which, thanks to the celebrities lending itself to it to the game, can thus collect funds for good deeds.

- It is a Traditional Way of Life – The Southern Agrarian movement, born in the 1920's, is rooted deep in Southern soil. It goes back to the English Cavalier culture with its system of aristocracy and social hierarchy. Its adherents have often been known as Country Gentleman and Southern Gentleman or Lady. The need to return to this simpler, more noble, more orderly, more self-reliant way of life has never been greater than it is today. Southern Agrarianism is a cultural movement and a way of life.
- It is being Close to the Land – It is enjoying the bounty from one's own garden, savoring a breakfast of fresh eggs gathered from the back yard chicken flock, and picking a sweet, juicy peach from a tree you planted. Southern Agrarianism is about being rooted in the land – not being a dependent cog in the complex machine of urban life.
In short, this is about enjoying a simple, yet elegant and refined way of life. It is about tradition and social order. It is about growing plants and raising animals and understanding the meaning of husbandry and stewardship. It is about understanding our place in the world – those who came before us and those who will follow after us.
Southern Agrarianism is a Blood and Soil movement. It takes in two of the most basic concepts in all of history: Our People, and the soil that provides the food that feeds our people. It means that, while we wish all the best toward others, our immediate family comes first, followed by ever larger circles of extended family, and then on out from there.
This being Southern Agrarianism, our people are the Southern people; those who originated in Europe and built the South. Historically, the culture of the South was most heavily influenced by the Cavaliers who fled the violence of the English civil war and settled in the South. They brought with them the English high culture which translated into the Southern Plantation culture: an orderly, hierarchy-based culture that was deeply rooted in the soil. There was a sense of kinship that was shared by both the smallest land-holding farmer and the largest plantation owner; they shared the common bond of those who live close to the soil. They were Southern Agrarians.
The Southern Agrarian movement in its purest form was described in the book, I'll Take My Stand, (first published in 1930) by Twelve Southerners. Two of those "Twelve Southerners" – Stark Young and Frank Lawrence Owsley – were my cousins. Stark Young's section of I'll Take My Stand is titled Not In Memoriam, But In Defense; Frank Lawrence Owsley's section is titled The Irrepressible Conflict. While I'll Take My Stand is the cornerstone, it is not the final word on Southern Agrarianism, just as the cornerstone is not the entire building.
ꔷ Not for Our Time, but for All Time ꔷ
ꔷ Not for All People, but for Our People ꔷ
The Southern Agrarian is published by Stephen Clay McGehee. Born-Again Christian, grandfather, husband, business owner, Southerner, aspiring Southern Gentleman. Founder and president of Adjutant Workshop, Inc. (a software development company), Vice president of Gather The Fragments Bible Mission, Inc. (Sierra Leone, West Africa), Kentucky Colonel, Webmaster – Military Order of The Stars and Bars.

Categories: Uncategorized | | No comments
My blog has been drastically underused in the last year. Most of my social networking needs have been satisfied by twitter; useful for it's brevity as I consider I've been finishing my PhD (including writing my thesis) and started a new job in the last 12 months. Perhaps understandably, I have been reducing my online presence to a minimum, or at least to brief comments!
I am also struck at how twitter has developed into something that allows me to get useful news or information about things I need, all without opening up a browser.
This blog started out as an experiment in web design, and I am proud that I have developed a full website from scratch that incorporates all the aspect you see, all created from HTML and CSS coding, through to graphic design and incorporating the WordPress blog within my main site (harder than I thought).
The site has most often been used in the past for posts about films I like, or otherwise. However, this role has now been taken up by Letterboxd. This is a great website that is one of the few to which I subscribe. It allows me to post reviews, compile lists of films, and maintain a film diary; all of which leaves me feeling that this blog is a bit redundant.
So in searching for a use for this site, I figured that my latest venture into the world of homebrew may be a good thing to add to the lists of things I write about.
Since spending a short amount of time in Portland, Oregon last year, I was struck by the passion shown by the local people for their beer. I think the main thing I was attracted by was the fact that people didn't really drink beer to get drunk (an important thing to state at the outset of my venture into homebrew!). Rather, they brewed their own to appreciate and understand complex flavours, and to produce an affordable drink that they could share with friends and family; something hand-crafted and unique that they could enjoy together and use feedback to make the next one better or different.
I think homebrew appeals to my engineering mindset along with my love of cooking and experimenting with recipes. The ability to craft something to share with others, and not only invite people round for some food, but also to produce a pint of something I've created feels like a great thing to do.
After dropping plenty of hints that it was something I wanted to do, I received a Woodforde's Wherry kit beer for Christmas. This is a box containing two tins of malt extract, to which water and yeast is added. After two weeks, this is put into bottles with some sugar and left to condition. This is the stage I am at now: hoping that his brew will turn out like the glorious English Bitter I remember from my time living in Cambridgeshire.
My next step in homebrew is to replace the tins of malt extract with proper malted grains. For this, I am fortunate that the homebrew scene in Ireland seems to be taking off apace (nowhere near as popular as in America, but at least it is moving). So, I am about to get some grains and hops from our (reasonably) local homebrew store, and hope that Saturday will be the first all-grain brew day!
This might prove a useful purpose for this blog. The lack of film reviews should not be mistaken for a loss of interest in films, although the recent film festival in Belfast did somewhat dampen my love for the cinema itself (or rather, the annoying people that inhabit them), but anything film-related will henceforth be documented on letterboxd.
I will continue to post things about Evernote, a service of which I am ever-more passionate; especially since I have managed to get a few colleagues using it (it was even mentioned as a positive aspect in my annual review!!). But overall, twitter seems to be the place I use most often.
Most things I read on other blogs are infinitely more useful than anything I post here, so perhaps I should direct readers to these sites instead. Either way, expect to see some changes to this blog…

Disability services are changing.
For many years the disability sector has been broken.
When you consider that one in five Australians are either born with or acquire a disability this is a minority group that needs and deserves to be supported.
Yet we've had a system that has ostensibly failed people, evidenced in all outcomes whether it be employment, education, health or housing.
When you look at all the outcomes for people with a disability in Australia, they have been woeful in comparison to any comparative OECD country.
This situation motivated change which has come in the form of the National Disability Insurance Scheme.
The NDIS is touted as the biggest social policy reform in Australia since Medicare.
It's worth $22 billion and is expected to cover 440,000 Australians.
The principal underpinning the scheme is that more people with a disability will have greater choice and control over their services.
It used to be that the government would give funds to a provider and a person with a disability would come and ask, "what can you give me?" and they were told what they could have.
Under the NDIS, the government is now in effect giving the money to the individual and they are going out to market to say, "where do I want to spend my money".
In essence what the NDIS is trying to do is transfer the purchasing power from the government and service providers, to put control back in the hands of people with disabilities.

Summer isn't only a time for gorgeous flowers and fun in the sun, it's also a time to partake of some of the most luscious fruits grown in our climate. For those of us in colder zones (5-6), that list includes blackberries, blueberries and grapes; a few of the fruit producing shrubs/vines that any novice (myself included) can grow in their back yard. What makes these fruits so easy to grow is that they don't require a lot of care. And what I mean by that is you don't have to worry about pollinators (except for blueberries), spraying chemicals or excessive pruning.
I've been gardening ornamentally for over 25 years, but until recently the only fruit I grew was for the birds. I planted American cranberry, chokeberry, twig dogwood, spicebush, bayberry and juniper, all for my feathered friends. And then I had an "Aha moment" that led me to venture into the realm of edible fruits for the human residents of our property as well. Sort of like Jill with a bean stalk, I decided to start with a grape vine . . .
America's favorite grape juice and grape jelly come from *Concord grapes (*named after the Massachusetts village of Concord, where the first of its variety was grown in the 1850's), so when I saw a hardy (zone 5-8), self-pollinating Concord grape, Vitis labrusca, for sale at a local nursery, I thought "Why not?" Once home, I needed to figure out where to plant the grape and what sort of trellis I would provide for it. If you happen to have a sturdy fence or arbor with a vacancy for a vine that can grow about 6 foot tall and wide, you're all set. If not, you'll need to get creative.
** Find out more about growing grapes and the local wineries in Connecticut ~
Because I have horses and chickens, there is no shortage of fencing material. But, I'm no carpenter, so I made up my own "creation", which has worked for the last five years. I used page wire and circled the grape (instead of lengthwise) using two metal fencing posts to secure my hoop cage. The holes in the wire were wide enough to allow me access for pruning (a little pruning is recommended in spring), while providing lots of openings for the branches to come through. Use whatever structure you can come up with as long as it pleases you and provides the necessary support and ventilation. Plant your grape in well drained soil, provide full sun, protection from harsh wind, water for the first year (after that, water only if a very dry summer), and enjoy your grapes in September. (Ironically, the birds do end up eating most of these as well, my fault for putting the vine near the bird feeder! You can net yours to prevent this from happening.)
** Would you consider Growing FIGS ? You can do it even in the colder climates!
Our native blueberry is such a beautiful shrub that I would grow it simply for its ornamental attributes, however Highbush blueberries, Vaccinium corymbosum, are not only a pretty face, but a wonderful addition to any garden. Growing 6-8 feet tall in sunny zones 4-7, they produce clusters of sweet indigo fruit (that contain more antioxidants than any other fruit or vegetable) from July to September, concluding with a fiery foliage finale in autumn. Although not difficult to grow, blueberries do have a few requirements to keep them healthy and prolific: 1.) Pair with at least one other variety to allow for cross-pollination (the plant tag will specify a good partner) and to extend the harvest season. 2.) Blueberries crave a moist, well drained acidic soil, and may need some watering during extended dry periods and a light fertilizing with sulfur (I use organic HollyTone) to maintain soil pH. 3.) Once the plant is established (about 3 years) you will want to prune out older stems in winter to promote healthier growth in spring. Popular varieties for Northern climates are: 'Atlantic', 'Berkeley', 'Bluechip', 'Bluecrop', 'Earliblue' and 'Jersey.' So far, the birds share the blueberries with me, but you may eventually need netting to protect your portion.
** Read more about the benefits of BLUEBERRIES ~
As a child, I experimented with growing blackberries (Rubus spp.), but their treacherous thorns and invasive nature soon led to abandonment on my part, to which they responded by happily taking over the hillside of my parent's property. Fast forward forty years, when I discovered the thornless blackberry 'Triple Crown', a vigorous plant renowned for its unique flavor and generous yield. "I'll take two," I informed the nursery sales person after reading that Triple Crown was sun loving, self pollinating and hardy to zones 5-9. This thornless blackberry grows about 5 feet tall and 4 foot wide, so again, you will need to think about some type of support to grow it on. A few metal posts sunk 2 feet into the ground, with two strands of wire strung between at about 3 feet and 5 feet, is what professional growers do (allowing at least 6 feet between plants). I constructed something a little different, creating a wire trellis and weaving the branches through it. Again, use whatever works for you and adjust as needed. Blackberries do like a moist soil, so mulch heavily around each plant to maintain moisture and allow the decomposing mulch to fertilize for you. I prune in the winter to remove all canes that fruited that summer, and any excessively long canes are trimmed back along with thinning out crowded or spindly stems. Otherwise, no care is required and you can expect delicious berries in August, that is if the critters don't get there first!
*Good read suggestion: If you're serious about growing fruit, especially combining it ornamentally, try Landscaping with Fruit by Lee Reich. This book is packed with ideas and tried-and-true experience.

Published: June 2018

To settle or not to settle? Only the parties can answer that question at mediation. For mediation, voluntary and informed decision making or "self-determination" is the paramount consideration. The Florida Rules for Certified and Court-Appointed Mediators reflect the importance of preserving the parties' right of self-determination throughout the mediation process. Understanding this principle will help both mediators and attorneys prepare and participate in the process.
Rule 10.310, Self-Determination, states in pertinent part: "(a) Decision-Making. Decisions made during a mediation are to be made by the parties. A mediator shall not make substantive decisions for any party. A mediator is responsible for assisting the parties in reaching informed and voluntary decisions while protecting their right of self-determination." The discussion in this article presumes that the parties have the capacity. It is worth noting, however, that a mediator shall cancel or postpone a mediation if a party is unable to feely exercise self-determination. See, Rule10.310(d).
So how can a mediator safeguard the process and rights of self-determination? First, the mediation should afford enough time for the parties to make a meaningful decision. Rule 10.430, for example, requires the mediator to "schedule a mediation in a manner that provides adequate time for the parties to fully exercise their right of self-determination." Clearly, not affording sufficient time or scheduling the mediation later in the day could set the parties up for added pressure and duress.
Because of this, I generally prefer mediation to commence in the morning. Further, even if the parties believe that only a half day is needed, the mediator should anticipate the need for more time. It is also worth noting that parties oftentimes want to work through lunchtime. If that is the case, the parties should discuss how lunch will be handled in advance. It will not help the process if the parties are hungry or feel rushed. The same holds true at the end of the day. In particular, parties are often tired and hungry by the time a mediation agreement is being drafted. If there is insufficient time to properly prepare and meaningfully review an agreement, an adjournment must be considered. See, Rule 10.420(b)(1).
Beyond the logistics, the parties are entitled to reach an informed and voluntary decision. Again, this takes time. While a mediator cannot make decisions or substitute his or her judgment for the parties, the mediator is responsible to ensure that the parties are informed. This may be accomplished by asking probing questions, facilitating the exchange of information between the parties, and ensuring sufficient opportunity for the parties to discuss new information and options with their counsel. In other words, a mediator should ask questions geared towards aiding the parties' thought process without suggesting an outcome or answering the questions. Otherwise, how do you know if the party is making an informed decision?
While a mediator should not offer an opinion on how a court may rule, a meaningful discussion of possible outcomes, and the merits of claims and defenses is part and parcel of the process. It may be that a party only knows its side of the case. Explaining what the other side's claims, defenses or positions are is a means to make sure the party is fully informed. Similarly, there is nothing prohibiting a mediator from providing information so long as it is not intended to coerce the party or serve as legal advice.
Similarly, questioning a party's understanding of what issues will be tried before the Court, the relief that may or may not be available, complexities presented with enforcement of proposals for settlement and the like are all topics that a mediator may want to explore with the parties. Depending upon the case, another area that routinely requires discussion is insurance coverage. Parties oftentimes presume that the presence of an adjuster means that a big payment is available. To the extent of the mediator's training and experience it is permissible to explain that there are different types of coverages, and question whether the party understands the distinction between defense coverage and indemnity coverage. In my experience, whether and to what extent coverage exists for a claim is a prime example of the information that a party may need to know in order to make a meaningful decision.
For example, in a construction case, parties often confuse liability insurance with performance bonds. One covers the consequences of work, while the latter provides coverage for the completion of a project, and potentially warranty rights. Plaintiffs may assume that if a contractor has liability insurance it covers poor workmanship, when it generally does not.
Of course, each mediation and decision must be made on a case by case basis. Giving thought to scheduling and the sufficiency of time, sufficiency of the information provided to the parties, and discussing the "what if's?" are all important considerations for a mediator. While it may be the parties' case, Rule 10.400 provides that it is the mediator's obligation to safeguard the process. The right of self-determination is at the heart of the process.

As cholesterol synthesis is comparatively lower in skeletal muscle relative to other organs,[3] it is thought to be dependent on serum uptake.[4] The fibroblast LDL receptor appears to be half-saturated at subphysiological levels of LDL, around 30 μg/mL[5] and deletion of this receptor doesn't appear to influence intracellular cholesterol significantly.[6][4]
Inhibition of HMG-CoA (statin usage) is able to induce SREBP2 in adipose and liver cells to increase cholesterol uptake via increasing the expression of the LDL receptor[7] and the liver's upregulation is known to reduce circulating LDL-C via increased uptake.[8]
Other mechanisms of cholesterol uptake from LDL-C include the lipoprotein lipase (LPL) receptor[9][10] which although is the rate-limiting enzyme for triglyceride uptake into a cell is not the rate-limit for cholesterol uptake;[4] at least with simvastatin, muscle cells can uptake 30% more cholsterol following statin usage (mouse study) without affecting cholesterol concentrations.[4] This study, despite failing to note an increase in cholesterol concentrations alongside the increased uptake, noted that simvastatin increased mitochondrial content of skeletal muscles;[4] although due to decreases in ubiquinone this may be a false positive for mitochondrial function.[11] Increased cholesterol concentration, however, has been noted in human interventions with simvastatin at 80mg[11] and this study noted that other sterols, such as campesterol, also increased.[11]
It should be noted that gross overexpression of LPL in skeletal muscle may cause a myopathy, though to be related to increased fatty acid influx (as LPL mediates fatty acids and cholesterol)[12] similar to an increase in LPL on cardiomyocytes.[13] Furthermore, competitive athletes who have increased LDL expression[14] seem to be more likely to have complications from statin usage.[15]
Cholesterol uptake into skeletal muscle cells (myocytes) appears to be mediated by both LPL and the LDL receptor, with statin usage increasing the activity of the LDL receptor
Phenotypically speaking, statin-induced myopathy appears to be a deficiency in the regenerative capacity of microlesions[16][17] which is supported by increased serum creatine kinase (indicative of muscle protein breakdown) up to 48-72 hours after tissue damaging exercise[18][19] and how intense exercise is an independent risk factor for statin induced myopathy.[20]
Lovastatin is an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor, preventing the conversion of HMG-CoA into Melavonate (rate limiting substrate in cholesterol synthesis); the Mevalonate pathway proceed unilaterally until it reaches the substrate Farsenyl Pyrophosphate (FPP) where it can then branch off into several alternate pathways. Although inhibition of HMG-CoA reduces all of these pathways, restoring cholesterol synthesis after this locus point by introducing squalene or cholesterol itself does not attenuate myopathy (using ATP reductions as a surrogate marker) while this myopathy appears to be dependent on reduced Geranylgeranyl Pyrophosphate (GGPP).[21] GGPP is thought to be a main target molecule for statin-related myopathy as it is already expressed to a lower degree in skeletal muscle[22] which may explain the relative sensitivity for complications in skeletal muscle relative to other organs (although cholesterol synthesis is inherently lowest in heart and skeletal muscle tissue,[3] myopathy appears to be independent of reduced cholesterol concentrations[21]).
Less GGPP in a cell system is associated with less protein synthesis due to reduced RhoA (a small protein kinase)[23] and may inhibit complex IV of the mitochondria, reducing cellular ATP levels.[24] RhoA is known to be reduced due to less Melavonate availability[25] and lower RhoA concentrations are associated with muscle cell catabolism.[26]
Myopathy from lovastatin appears to be associated with reducing GGPP (a consequence of inhibiting HMG-CoA, the target enzyme of statins) and independent of the reduction in cholesterol per se
Lovastatin is also known to induce atrogin-1, a protein that mediates protein catabolism and this induction of atrogin-1 is ablated by excessive incubation of PGC-1a.[27]
One study (otherwise healthy men aged 60-69) that noted that cholesterol was linearly associated with more lean mass gain in older individuals on a standardized diet and given resistance training noted that usage of lovastatin (in the recommended range) was associated with more muscle building than persons not using statins;[28] this study noted comparable increases with lovastain and pravastatin, both of which outperformed atorvastatin and simvastatin which comparatively outperformed no statin usage.[28] The authors hypothesized this was a recompensatory effect from the known ability of statin drugs to augment exercise-induced muscle injury as assessed by marathons[18] or downhill treadmill walking[19] and when measured 48-72 hours after (intense exercise is also an independent risk factor for myopathy from statins, suggestive of augmenting muscle damage or attenuating the rate of repair[20]).
One study suggests that chronic usage of statin drugs and pairing statins with exercise can increase lean mass accrual from exercise, apparently synergistic with dietary and serum cholesterol. Although statins during exercise are not well studied, they appear to reduce the rate of muscle regeneration
The connection between GGPP and RhoA is unlikely to explain the observed reactions as there are differences between lovastatin and pravastatin, as the latter is known to not be taken up into myocytes to a large degree[29] due to being selectively taken up by OATP1B1,[30] a transport expressed on hepatocytes almost exclusively;[31] thus limiting the muscle exposure to pravastatin.[32] Although pravastatin would induce the same effects if cultured in vitro,[22] it does not appear to reach skeletal muscle well after ingestion.
The only possible link here is that cholesterol ester and free cholesterol influx into a cell (thought to be anabolic to skeletal muscle) is inversely dependent on RhoA, being increased with lower RhoA concentrations.[33]
Reductions of GGPP and, subsequently, RhoA are a possible explanation for the observed hypertrophic response to statins but cannot explain the difference between pravastatin and lovastatin; these reductions are also inherently catabolic
Another possible explanation is using Selenoproteins (proteins made with selenium as a component) and particularly Selenoprotein N, encoded by the SEPN1 gene; due to HMG-CoA inhibition, there is less isopentenylpyrophosphate (IPP) availability (in the cholesterol biosynthetic chain after mevalonate) and IPP appears to be critical for a selenocysteine transfer RNA to make selenoproteins.[34]
SEPN1-related myopathies (genetic faults) are phenotypically similar to statin-induced myopathies[35][36] and the reduced amount of selenoprotein N (which is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum of muscle[37] and accumulates in damaged muscle and recruit satellite cells[38]) correlates well with the phenotype observed in statin-induced and SEPN1 related myopathy as the observed reduced rate of tissue regeneration (evidence by lovastatin increasing serum creatine kinase 48-72 hours after exericse, but not immediately after[18][19]) is more indicative of reduced repair rates than of inducing damage.
Furthermore, although ablation of SEPN1 and reduced selenoprotein N is not adverse to muscle growth per se[35] and is not present in high levels in adult skeletal muscle without physical injury,[39] introduction of a mutant selenocysteine tRNA to reduce selenoprotein amounts, in rats, is associated with a 50% increase in muscle protein synthesis that is mTOR and exercise dependent.[40]
Selenoprotein deficiency appears to be somewhat related to both myopathy as well as enhanced exercise-induced hypertrophy, and statins may reduce cellular selenoprotein concentrations. This seems to correlate better with the observed effects of statins on muscle protein synthesis, but assumes that a hormetic response occurs (this hypothesized hormetic response that ultimately builds muscle is not known yet)
Thyroid deiodinases are selenoproteins, which appears to generally be reduced following statin induced inhibition of HMG-CoA by limiting the amount of IPP available for selenocysteine tRNA.[17][41] Despite this, it has been noted that lovastatin and IPP inhibitors increase the activity of type 2 iodothyronine selenodeiodinase (D2) in brown adipose tissue of mice and in vitro[42]
In hypothyroid patients, there appears to be some case studies noting a decrease in T4 and increase in TSH in response to lovastatin paired with thyroxine[43] which has been seen in rats (simvastatin)[44] although failed to be replicated with simvastatin.[45]
Red yeast rice which contains monacolin (especially monacolin K) lowers cholesterol levels by reducing cholesterol synthesis by the liver through inhibiting the rate-limiting step catalyzed by the enzyme 5-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA).[46] However, since monacolin K is identical to the pharmaceutical known as lovastatin, the FDA has banned sales of red yeast rice which contain non-negligible quantities of monacolin K since it is a "non-approved drug",[2][1] thus red yeast rice as currently marketed in the US may not have these effects on the liver's cholesterol production. However, a study done after the FDA ban found that many red yeast rice products still contain monacolin K at levels which widely vary,[47] and a Freedom of Information Act request to investigate FDA oversite of monacolin K levels has revealed that FDA enforcement of monacolin K levels is lacking.[48]
Ubiquinone concentrations in skeletal muscle are known to be reduced with statin usage such as simvastatin (80mg for 8 weeks resulting in a 33.6% reduction) paired with less repiratory chain activity.[11]
One study using high dose (80mg) simvastatin and measuring sterol concentrations in muscle cells noted that, despite an increase in cholsterol, dietary campesterol (naturally occurring and common sterol) increased; suggesting statin-induced sterol uptake is general rather than specific to cholesterol.[11] Coingestion of plant sterols (or stanols) with statin usage appears to induce further decreases in serum cholesterol.[49]
Schweinfurthins appear to be synergistic with lovastatin in reducing levels of GGPP in medium.[50]
