When it comes to going for a work out, I've got my getting ready routine down to a fine art and that's all because of what I take with me when I go to the gym. I used to think that going to the gym was a bit of a carry on and a lengthy chunk out of my day but now I've really got my routine down to a T. I can be in and out within a two hours, depending on what work out I'm doing, and a lot of that is down to the gym that I go to as well as what I take with me.
The gym I go to is at a hotel leisure club that has a fitness suite with all of the cardio and weights machines I could need and a swimming pool, sauna, steam room and Jacuzzi so it is the perfect mix of exercise, toning and relaxation. The changing facilities in the gym that I go to are great and were a massive selling point for me. The showers are individual and the changing rooms have proper hair dryers and large mirrors so I can get ready just the same as I would do at home, this is really important to me as the gym and pool I used to go to was in a public leisure centre all with shared facilities and it felt like a free for all and a rush to get out. I'd end up going out with my hair wet and not even properly dry, looking a little dishevelled, meaning that I'd not be presentable to go anywhere and I'd often end up with a cold by going outside with my hair wet.
I've been going to my new gym for months now and I absolutely love it. Today I am going to show you all what I take to the gym with me in my gym back and also a make up look that I find quick and easy to apply after I've been for a work out.
My Gym Bag
The bag that I take to the gym with me is from Jack Wills. I've had this bucket style bag for years. It is amazing quality, made of a thick, heavy material and very spacious. It is easily carried over my shoulder or in the crook of my arm and has stood me in good stead through years of carrying it to university and to the gym. Whilst this bag is no longer available on the Jack Wills website, there are others on there, including a gorgeous barrel gym bag at the moment, and they're always bringing out new bags every season.
The items that are in my bag are very much interchangeable depending on what I'm going to be doing, particularly in terms of my beauty products as I add in what I need as and when I need it but the majority of types of items stay consistently in there. I keep the majority of my gym things in the main part of the bag but there is a big pocket inside that I like to put my phone, purse and car keys in.
My Membership Card
In the front pocket of my bag, I keep my leisure club membership card, £1 coin for the locker and code for the changing room door in a Radley Travel Card Holder. I used to use this for my bus pass back in college but since learning to drive, I haven't had a use for it until now. I sometimes keep my iPod and headphones in this pouch too if I'm going to boot camp on the beach or for a walk before or after going to the leisure club. If I'm just going to the gym then I don't take it with me as there's a TV in the fitness suite and I always put the music channels on and turn up the volume- it is quite a small fitness suite and I tend to go when it is quite so I've usually got the place to myself with the music up loud!
My Work Out Clothes and Trainers
When it comes to the clothes that I wear to work out in, I don't really have any pieces that you would typically consider to be gym gear like the lycra running leggings from sports shops or anything like that. I'm not too bothered what I wear when I am in the gym, as long as it is comfortable and casual then I am happy, regardless of whether they are new pieces or old. The clothes I tend to wear are pieces that I could wear for the gym or for a casual day out.
For tops, I either wear a vest top (my favourites are from Next. This light blue one is one of their neppy vests that I also have in oatmeal and fluro) or a polo top from Ralph Lauren– these are so comfortable to wear as they're breathable. I tend to keep my Abercrombie hoodie in the boot of my car just in case its cold but general I tend to just dash from my car into the gym as I park right outside. On the bottom I wear either my Simply Be leggings or my joggers from Next.
The trainers that I wear to the gym are from Asics that I bought off the Very website. I know very little about running shoes but what I do know is that these are super comfortable and they have gel in them so they fit to the shape of my feet. The socks I take with me are the Calvin Klein trainer socks from House of Fraser. These are pricey for socks but they're the best ones I've had. Very comfortable, thick, they wash really well as they stay in shape, soft and don't discolour and they really cushion the feet.
If I'm going to gym first thing on a morning then I'll go wearing my gym clothes and running shoes, other wise I'll put them in my bag to put on when I get there from work.
My Swimsuit
The swimsuit I'm wearing the moment is from Swimwear365, its the Lascana Black Tropical Swimsuit. I really like the way that it looks as though it is a two piece tankini when in actual fact it is an all in one swimming costume. The base colour of the swimsuit is black with what would be considered to be the bottoms, all black. There are some gorgeous tropical flowers on the top half of the costume in summery pink, orange and white colours. The swimming costume is great fit, making it practical to be able to wear to swim lengths in but it still looking stylish and cute. The straps are adjustable and whilst the bust has a small amount of padding, it isn't overly formed, it just holds you in and flatters your shape with the elastic that has been fitted underneath the chest. The sides of the swimsuit are ruched too making it look slimming. I find that this swimsuit fits and flatters and makes me feel confident around the pool. It would be a good one to take on holiday too.
The only thing that I am needing to get to complete my gym bag is a pair of swimming goggles. When I first signed up to the leisure club I'd intended to mostly use the gym but I've been enjoying using the pool more and more, particularly when it is hot outside. Sometimes I have been going to use the sauna and the pool and to just chill out with my Kindle on a sun lounger when I am on a rest day or even on a night after I've already done my swim and gym work out that morning. One thing that I have found is that my eyes are quite easily irritated by the chlorine in the water so I've resigned myself to the fact that I need to get some goggles. The ones that they sell at the health club aren't best and there isn't an extensive range to choose from so I am looking to get some swimming goggles from Zoggs so I'll update you on those when I get them.
The wash toiletries I take with me really depend on how I am at the time, e.g. if I need to exfoliate the last remaining bits of tan off then I'll take a scrub with me (see my after gym pick me ups post here). I pack all of my toiletries into a rubber Gucci wash bag so that it doesn't get ruined if anything leaks.
Hair and Body
The showers at my gym provide shampoo, conditioner and shower gel for you to use and whilst the conditioner does really soften my hair, the shampoo and shower gel are shockingly bad so I make sure that I take my own with me.
The shampoo I'm using at the moment is the Anne Semonin Gentle Mistletoe Shampoo. This is perfect for normal to oily hair which I have and it works perfectly well with my hair extensions, leaving my hair super clean as I lather it up and rinse it out. It contains extracts of Mistletoe Flowers, Fennel Fruit, Yarrow and Camomile which have soothing and calming properties so they're great for sensitive scalps and it also contains extract of Melissa which is Lemon Balm which is found to strengthen and fortify the hair. This is a sample size but the full size is available for £21 from Liberty.
For conditioner, I always buy the Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Reconstructor deep conditioner when the mini sizes are on 3 for 2 at Boots. This is easy to apply and I leave it to work its magic while I use my shower gel, then I rinse my hair and it is left ridiculously soft and looking so healthy.
The shower gel I'm using at the moment is the Anne Semonin Exotic Verbena Bath and Shower Gel. I love the way that this shower gel smells as it is quite spa like. It is perfumed with Litsea Cubeba which is revitalising, energising and stimulating- it really awakens the senses. The shower gel is enriched with extracts of Seaweed so it is full of marine elements. This is a sample size but the full size is available for £21 from Liberty. If I'm at the gym, I just massage this over my body and find that it gently foams, if I am at home then I use my full sized bottle on a shower puff and find that it foams up even more. It leaves my skin feeling clean but not squeaky, just soft, clean and moisturised.
When it comes to brushing my hair after I've been in the pool and in the shower at the gym there is no other brush I'd rather use than the Denman D90 Dolphin Tangle Tamer. Now hear me out on this one, yes it is a bright blue brush with dolphins on designed to lull a parents little mermaid or merman into a sense of tearless security while their knots and tangles are painstakingly brushed out BUT this is seriously the best brush I've used on my wet hair, especially while I've got my hair extensions in.
The Dolphin Brush has soft bristles each with micro fine surfaces that are innovatively clustered in two different lengths that are designed to gently separate the hair and tease tangles. A comparison to this brush would be the infamous Tangle Teezer as although the brushes are different, they are along the same lines, being designed to glide through the hair and detangle it. However the Denman D90 is a far superior brush than the Tangle Teezer as it gets right down to the root of the hair and detangles it from the scalp and all the way through the hair whereas I feel as though the Tangle Teezer just graces the surface of my hair and whilst yes it does detangle, it does it by just smoothing down the top layers of hair and it doesn't get right to the scalp and detangle my hair fully.
The Dolphin Tangle Tamer is really easy and comfortable to use as it is light weight and has a slim handle. The bristle pad is shallow and air cushioned pad make it even more comfortable when brushing through the hair, particularly when I have my Great Lengths hair extensions in as it doesn't tug on them, it just gently detangles as it brushes. I've spent a small fortune on brushes to use with my hair extensions and this is by far the best brush I've used. I would definitely say it is perfect for children's hair but also for adults.
The Denman D90 Dolphin Tangle Tamer is £6.98 from the Denman website. I honestly couldn't recommend it enough.
When I'm in the gym, I always have my hair tied up with a thick hair bobble to secure it in place- I keep plenty of these in my gym bag.
I don't take a towel with me to the gym as these are provided by the health club already. After getting out of the shower, I towel dry my hair then add a good dollop of the Aussie Take The Heat Leave In Cream through the mid lengths to ends. This acts as a smoothing cream and as a heat protectant in one so it saves space in my gym bag and protects my hair.
Deodorant is super important both before and after the gym. The one I pack is the Sure Maximum Protection cream deodorant. This keeps me feeling and smelling fresh. No other deodorant comes close. Its about £5 from Boots which I think is pricey for a deodorant but it is seriously AMAZING!
There are three moisturisers that I take with me in my gym bag. The Kiko Light Legs Mousse, that I've talked about in full here, is an awesome product to use to cool down tired legs after you've been doing squats or a lot of cardio. I like to pop on a foot cream as well to combat the terrible dry skin that I get on my feet. The one I'm using at the moment is the Manuka Doctor ApiNourish Foot and Heel Cream, from Holland and Barrett, that I have repurchased countless times and reviewed in full here. It makes my feet really soft and cools them down.
The third moisturiser that I have in my gym bag is the Chocolate Body Butter from Derma V10. I love this as it is so thick and creamy. It smells great too but if you're not a fan of scents like the Palmers Cocoa Butter, like my friend like my friend Mammaful Zo then you wont like the smell of this! It is super cheap at only £1.25 from Amazon and places like Poundstretchers and is a great rival for the body butters from The Body Shop as it is an absolute steal compared to their prices. It leaves my skin ridiculously soft and moisturised, particularly after I've been in the pool that tends to dry my skin out. I love it!
When I go to the gym I either go first thing on a morning or last thing at night. My gym is open from 6am until 11pm so literally waking up time to bedtime. I get the gym to fit in with my daily routine as best I can so if I'm going first thing on a morning then I use skincare and make up products that I can put a quick, presentable look together with so that I can go straight out afterwards and if I am going late at night then I use the night time skincare pieces that I have with me. Oh and I'll let you into a little secret… I even have PJs that look like yoga pants and a vest top that I put on to leave the gym in so that I can literally hop straight into bed when I get in… Yes, I am that person!
The skincare that I have in my gym bag to use at night consists of four items- a joint cleanser and toner, a night time moisturiser, eye cream and lip balm.
The dual action cleanser and toner that I use when I'm getting ready after the gym actually comes in the form of wipes from Murad. These aren't wipes that you can feel guilty about using as they're actually good for your skin but I'll come onto that later.
If I'm going to the gym from work, I have some make up removal wipes in my car that I use en route to the gym, usually when I'm sat in the car park. I use a variety of brands, none of which are particularly better than the other, they all do the same job in removing the majority of my make up, not the most deep set make up but certainly the make up that is sat on the surface of my skin. By the time I come to use the Murad wipes, I have already used the other cleansing wipes and fully washed in the shower so my skin is clean.
The Murad Clarifying Wipes for blemish prone skin are the very first face wipes launched by Dr. Murad, the skincare specialist. They contain a plethora of beneficial skincare ingredients including Witch Hazel which helps to control oil and tighten pores, Algae Extract which helps to regulate excess sebum production, Grape Seed Extract and Vitamin E which help to protect the skin from free radical damage, Menthol which soothes irritated skin and is very cooling, Cucumber Extract which hydrates the skin and minimises skin irritations and Calendula which calms inflamed blemishes.
Whilst they are targeted for those who suffer with blemishes and oily skin as they reduce shine, I'd say that they are fine to use on all but those with sensitive skin as they do feel a little strong, which I assume is down to the Witch Hazel and Menthol. They have a combined cleansing and toning effect and are clinically proven to keep the skin clear by removing dirt and bacteria from the skin as well as sebum that clogs the pores. When I'm using these I really do feel as though they're clearing out my skin and toning it at the same time. They're very refreshing and great as a quick cleanse like if you're at a festival, travelling, coming out of the gym or even if you're simply too tired to cleanse properly at night which, lets face it, happens to us all from one time to another as a wipe cleanse is better than no cleanse at all (for me, it is usually after I've either been driving a long distance or had one or two glasses of vino… note the 'or', never together!). I find that these are really cooling and effective on my skin and I would recommend them for use on the face but avoiding the eye area as they are a little strong if used on the skin around my eye thanks to the menthol in them.
The Murad Clarifying Wipes are £18 for a pack of 30 and are available direct from the Murad website.
At night, after I have used the Murad wipes, I apply my night cream which is the Manuka Doctor Restoring Night Cream that I've reviewed here and the Good Things Bright Eyes Eye Cream that I've talked about in this post.
I then slick on a super moisturising ChapStick lip balm. This one is in the apple flavour and it tastes lush. I put this on just as I'm leaving the gym and my lips feel lovely and moisturised the next morning when I wake up. It really helps my lips to retain their moisture and soothes them so that they aren't dry. With regular application of ChapStick, my lips remain uncracked, soft and moisturised. It has SPF 15, not that that makes a blind bit of difference at night but its a nice addition to protect your lips if you're using it during the day time. This lip balm is really cheap at just over £1 from Boots.
Make Up
If I'm nipping out to the shops and going about my day straight after I've been to the gym then I like to use a few quick products that I have in my make up bag to apply a presentable amount of make up to my face- nothing over done, just something super natural and quick. You'll notice that I haven't included an eyebrow pencil or mascara here; that's because generally I have my eyelash extensions applied and my brows tinted and shapes to its unnecessary for every day wear. If I weren't to have had these treatments done then of course I'd just add these to my gym bag.
So I start with the Murad wipes above and then the same eye cream. For a moisturiser, I use the Origins Vitazing (review here) as this adds a touch of colour to my pale face too. I wish I had tanned skin but unfortunately I'm pasty white so this really helps to perk up my complexion.
I then apply some of the Derma V10 Medium Tinted Eye Roll to my under eye circles and blend out. I double this up as a concealer too and apply it to blemishes and areas that need a little extra coverage. I wouldn't recommend this product. I was given it in a goody bag and I'm just using it up here, when I am finished with it, I'll be replacing it with a concealer like the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer. This one from Derma V10 is ok for use after the gym where I don't need my make up to be particularly long lasting and it is cooling and does provide some coverage but it isn't fantastic. Whilst it is only around £1, I'd rather spend a couple of extra pounds on something a little better. That being said, it has been fine in my gym make up bag and I will continue using it until it runs out.
I then apply some of the Benefit Posie Tint for a pop of pink on my cheeks and slick on some of the ChapStick Shimmer in Berry.
The ChapStick Lipsensation Shimmer is a line of shimmery formulated Chapsticks. I have this one in Berry which is a pearlescent lip balm with a slight touch of pinky red. It gives a really pretty flush to the lips.
Here is my go to post gym make up look. I tend to just plait my hair, tie it up or leave it down and wild and I apply the make up as described above. It's just something simple, cute and very natural, almost as though I'm not wearing any make up.
I quickly roll on a little of my Sugar Lemon perfume from Fresh and I'm good to go!
So that's everything that I keep in my gym bag from clothes to trainers and from toiletries to make up. It seems like a lot when I write it all down but it all fits in a relatively small bag. I love the items that I take with me as they really encourage me to go to the gym because I know that I'm not adding loads of extra hours to my day.
This has been a highly requested blog post and I have an injury right now so Mr WLL has sat and typed this up for me while I've dictated it so I do hope you enjoy it and it has been worth waiting for and many thanks to my Mr for his help!
What do you keep in your gym bag? What is your ideal post gym make up look?

While excess fat in the body exposes one to quite a lot of health-related risks, a recent study showed that about two-thirds of all people at a high risk for a heart attack or stroke have extra belly fat. The researchers of the study presented their data of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) EUROASPIRE V survey at the World Congress of Cardiology & Cardiovascular Health in Dubai recently.
The study was conducted in 2017-2018 in 78 general practices in 16 primarily European countries. The participants were retrospectively identified using medical records and invited to an interview and clinical examination. Questions were asked about their lifestyle habits such as smoking, diet, physical activity, blood pressure, lipids, and diabetes. Measurements included height, weight, waist circumference, blood pressure, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels, and blood sugar levels.
"A total of 2,759 participants were interviewed and examined using standardised methods and instruments. Nearly two-thirds (64%) were centrally obese (waist circumference 88 cm or greater for women and 102 cm or higher for men). Some 37% were overweight (body mass index [BMI] 25 to 29.9 kg/m2) and 44% were obese (BMI 30kg/m2or above). Nearly one in five participants (18%) were smokers and just 36% achieved the recommended physical activity level of at least 30 minutes, five times per week" it states.
"The survey shows that large proportions of individuals at high risk of cardiovascular disease have unhealthy lifestyle habits and uncontrolled blood pressure, lipids and diabetes," Kornelia Kotseva, chair of the EUROASPIRE Steering Committee and study co-author.
She continues, "These data make it clear that more efforts must be made to improve cardiovascular prevention in people at high risk of cardiovascular disease. Our analysis highlights the need for health care systems to invest in prevention."
Talking about the abnormal distribution of fat in the body, as in the case of belly fat, the study states, "This belly fat is bad for the heart, even in people who are not otherwise overweight or obese."

An engagement session is a great opportunity to find out about your photographer's style and approach, but it's so much more. It is a great way to add a bit of a personal touch to your wedding, whether by implementing the photos within your Getting Married website, including images in the design of your Save the Date cards, or as a photo display at your reception.
Most of all, the engagement session is about the two of you being yourselves and feeling yourselves in front of the camera. It will aid you in getting the feel for posing, smiling, snuggling together and kissing and how it would look through the camera's lens.
It's great if you already have the location where you would like the session to take place, however if you would like to share your ideas on the photo shoot, but aren't certain as to where the session could take place, do not worry! We visited many fantastic locations with exceptional photo opportunities in Lancashire, Yorkshire, Cumbria, Merseyside, Greater Manchester and North Wales and will be happy to give you our suggestions that make up for your needs.
What you will get are truly exceptional and eye-catching photos captured in fun and relaxed atmosphere. Naturally, some shoots could take as little as 30 minutes, whereas some other couples might need a little more time to relax and feel unbothered by the camera, so apart from advising you on how to prepare for the shoot in terms of the clothing, hair, make up, etc. we'll be there for you for as long as needed.
Sessions are a free addition to our most popular wedding packages: Love & Cheer, Mr & Mrs and Unique Moments for all weddings between 16th February and 15 November and include a £50 discount. For couples interested exclusively in the photo shoot, it's £200.

To the editor:
This September, four of us from the Okanagan travelled to Austria, specifically to cycle a 600 km route between Salzburg and Bratislava and back to Vienna.
The Austrian route, which is mainly along river areas, is much like we envision our Okanagan Rail Trail could become. It was one of the best trips we have ever taken and we highly recommend it for people of all ages.
Europe has done a magnificent job in making these bike trails a great tourist destination. Their trails meander through rural country and small towns, farmland and vineyards much like those in our area.
The spin offs to small businesses, artists, B&Bs, cycle shops, restaurants, (the list goes on) are substantial. We are so pleased that the District of Lake Country and the other municipalities have progressed this far in making the trail a reality.
We have told many people about our trip and the economic benefits the trail would bring to our area. You need to take a trip like we had to realize how much it means to the people we met in Austria. Bicycles are everywhere, the health benefits and pure enjoyment of it all are immense. None of us in the group that cycled Austria are young but we are active seniors and we expect to enjoy our local trail when it is completed.
Future generations will be happy we protected this area for them—it will benefit local businesses and provide much needed jobs for our community. The annual householder cost of about $27 per year, is one of the best investments we can make. We feel that is a very reasonable amount to acquire this large property, so let's move ahead with this opportunity before it is lost forever.
For those of you who are interested in the economic spin off, we refer you to a study commissioned by the European Parliament in 2009 which found it extended the tourist season, took cyclists off the beaten track to support local small communities and generated 9.9 million Euros ($14 million) a year on the Austrian trail alone.
It also created 95 full time equivalent jobs in Austria.
Similar statistics were found in Quebec, Iowa, Oregon, Minnesota and many other areas. Google "Eurovelo Benefits" for details. Please join with us in support of this exceptional project.

It's absolutely uncanny!
It's just stunning how this one short clip fails to paint an entire portrait of a man who had 63 years of experiences and relationships!
Shades of Williams' deep wisdom are present here, but a GIF can only gesture at what Williams was. It cannot contain the man's essence.
Hard to believe how paltry a job this GIF does at capturing the subtlety in this, or any, Williams performance.
It's absolutely mind-blowing just how short this incredible GIF falls of encapsulating the full range and depth of a human life, with all its joys and heartbreaks.
This GIF sums up pretty perfectly the frenetic performance style Robin Williams brought to his stand-up, but what about when the cameras weren't rolling?
This might literally be the best GIF of all time! Yet it's still stunningly inadequate to fully encapsulate the endless vicissitudes of mourning. Just as we all experienced Robin Williams' life differently, so we all are experiencing his loss differently. Yet we all retweet the same image ad infinitum, a one-size-fits-all sentiment that ultimately communicates nothing. From the endless nuances of our personal sadness, we all send up the same meaningless image as a token of our despair. The internet is a monster. It homogenizes grief. This GIF just doesn't cut it.

These were the final words that legendary creator of Marvel Comics, Stan Lee breathed right before his death on the night of November 12. The truth is indeed hard to swallow that the man who gave us iconic characters like Spider Man, Iron Man, Hulk, The X-Men and many more, is no more. The reality is definitely having a hard time to sink in as we fail to convince ourselves that there'll be no more of those super hilarious Stan Lee cameos, we're used to seeing in each and every Marvel movie.
A titan of creative genius and intellect, Stan Lee gave us the most iconic character of all, The Amazing Spider-Man which is Marvel's most successful character of all time and a ideologue which will last for generations, "With great power comes great responsibility". A point worthy of mention is that Stan did not have any sons. So in his last words to Roy, his protege and successor what he meant by "take care of my boy" was that he was entrusting the future of his personal favorite superhero, Spider Man in the hands of Roy. This bias can be attributed to the fact that Stan conceived the idea of Spider-Man and very much insisted on publishing this superhero to stand against the notion back then that teenagers can only be sidekicks and never a superhero in a comic book.
Stan Lee remains an inspiration for everyone who wants to do something different, something out of the mainstream. He once said, "I used to be embarrassed because I was just a comic book writer while other people were building bridges or going on to medical careers. And then I began to realize: Entertainment is one of the most important things in people's lives. Without it, they might go off the deep end."
Thank you so much Stan for all the golden childhood memories we've made with your creations. Without them, life would have definitely been much less exciting. "I guess one person can make a difference".

with valentine's day just around the corner, i'm sharing my dinner date ootd. many of you who have been following along with me know my main squeeze and i have been married for 32 years. this past week i heard a great quote by jamie lee curtis on the longevity of her marriage. ironically, jamie lee and i are the same age and have been married the same amount of time. when asked what was her secret to a successful marriage she replied, "don't get divorced." i got a chuckle out of that one! but back to my dinner date ootd. it's simple. and masculine. so i added a feminine touch with the pink lace camisole tucked underneath. a pearl and pink statement necklace also soften this look. i'm loving the wider leg of this pant. add a pair of suede stilettos, a quilted clutch home made by yours truly, and i'm ready to have some fun.

Posted on February 9, 2019; by Rassin R.
Slik Rug Cleaning by Behnam Rugs in Dallas specializes in silk rug cleaning. We handle each oriental silk rug with utmost care since 1978. We have special techniques in silk rug cleaning. We always advise use clean water and a damp cloth to clean your rugs at home. However, we assess each silk rug cleaning on a one-on-one basis. We use the same hand-washing-techniques as were used and perfected in old Persia. Our organic-hand-washing method of washing rugs comes from a special technique that has been documented in Persian history of rug making & rug washing, and is used today.
Once customers bring in their valuable silk rugs for cleaning, we inspect them thoroughly. Each rug is unique. Not each silk rug is made of natural fibers that of a silkworm; some silk rugs are made of viscose-rayon-silk. Our experts at Behnam Rugs will explain the matter during the silk rug inspection process. If the rug has no damages, we schedule an organic hand wash for the rug. But, if the rug endured some wear and tear, and depending how the situation is, we might suggest first to repair the damaged area, then to conduct a silk rug cleaning or even silk rug washing.
Once the Silk Rug was inspected and tagged, we schedule an organic-rug-hand-wash process. This means that we use ancient techniques with organic-shampoos to wash natural silk-fiber rugs. Behnam Rugs does not use harsh over the counter shampoos, rather we only use organic rug shampoo to prevent damage to natural dyes in wool, silk, and artificial silk for the washing of your heirloom rug. After the silk rug washing process, we use special techniques and methods for drying silk rugs to reach its best quality.

Ford and Baidu Announce $150 Million Joint Investment in Velodyne
Ford and Baidu have announced the investment of $150 million USD in Silicon Valley-based LiDAR sensor manufacturer Velodyne. The investment will support the production and development of LIDAR technology and products, which are used by Ford's autonomous Ford Fusion Hybrid test fleet vehicles for the purposes of guiding self-driving cars, as well as helping to make LiDAR more cost-effective for potential application in mass-produced vehicles.
"We want the cost to be low enough to be used for all cars. We envision a safer world for the millions of automotive drivers across the globe," said Marta Hall, Velodyne President of Business Development.
New Ford Research: 2016 Ford Fusion trims, specs, and features
Velodyne's LiDAR products have been honed across four generations of systems spanning a decade. The systems interpret data that is gathered by sensors to create fully-realized 3D digital images that can be used to create maps for self-driving cars. According to Velodyne, its latest LiDAR solutions are able to produce between 300,000 and 2.2 million data points per second with a range of up to 200 meters and accuracy down to the centimeter.
"LiDAR continues to prove itself as the critical sensor for safe autonomous vehicle operation," said David Hall, founder and CEO, Velodyne LiDAR. "This investment will accelerate the cost reduction and scaling of Velodyne's industry-leading LiDAR sensors, making them widely accessible and enabling mass deployment of fully autonomous vehicles. We are determined to help improve the goal of safety for automotive vehicles as soon as possible, as well as empower the efficiency autonomous systems offer."
Earlier this year, Ford's Fusion Hybrid autonomous research vehicle proved capable of driving on its own and in total darkness at the Ford Arizona Proving Ground, and it was shown to be able to drive safely in snowy conditions. Ford also recently announced that it would have an autonomous vehicle available to the public by 2021.
"From the very beginning of our autonomous vehicle program, we saw LiDAR as key enabler due to its sensing capabilities and how it complements radar and cameras," said Raj Nair, Ford Executive Vice President, Product Development and Chief Technical Officer. "Ford has a long-standing relationship with Velodyne and our investment is a clear sign of our commitment to making autonomous vehicles available for consumers around the world."

An Ahmadi graveyard in Rabwah, Pakistan. PHOTO/Mohsin Raza/The New York Times
The guard inched open the metal gate of the giant mosque compound, cast a wary glance at the empty street and with a cagey wave of his hand said, "Come in."
It was a Tuesday afternoon in Rabwah, the time for the midday prayer performed daily by Muslims, but the sprawling halls of Masjid-e-Aqsa, the largest mosque of the Ahmadi sect in Pakistan, stood empty. Paint peeled off the walls. A giant clock near the dusty pulpit read 8:44, no longer keeping time.
Though Ahmadi beliefs are deeply rooted in Islam, orthodox Muslims consider them heretical. The Pakistan Constitution declared them non-Muslims after anti-Ahmadi riots in 1974, and a 1984 ordinance forbade their "posing as Muslims" — performing the Muslim call to prayer, publicly using Islamic greetings, disseminating religious literature or even calling their places of worship mosques.
The legal changes have left the sect particularly vulnerable, and attacks on Ahmadi businesses, places of worship and graveyards are common. Since twin attacks on Ahmadi mosques in Lahore in 2010 left 93 people dead, Rabwah's Masjid-e-Aqsa, where 20,000 people would gather at a time, has been abandoned for smaller neighborhood mosques.
"The congregations were a time to meet friends, catch up and laugh," Amir Mehmood, who works in the community's press office, said as he walked through the mosque's echoing halls. "Now this emptiness, it makes my heart weep."
Mr. Mehmood's mood matched that of the city, where a tenuous sense of security holds even as the specter of violence hovers just outside the city walls. Rabwah is filled with those who have suffered decades of violence. Some are here to find sanctuary. Others are waiting to flee abroad.
The sect moved its headquarters to Pakistan from India in 1948, purchased a barren stretch of desert land from the government and resolved to populate it. Thus was Rabwah born.
Today the city contains about 70,000 Ahmadis. The roads are paved and lined with greenery. An Olympic-size swimming pool, state-of-the-art library, free eye and blood banks and a world-class cardiology hospital have been set up. Much of the community is affluent, and the literacy rate is over 85 percent. The city is small enough that people, even those who can afford cars, cycle everywhere.
Rabwah — where portraits of the Ahmadi sect's turbaned founder, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, are ubiquitous — has a veneer of calm, even affluence, that is at odds with the growing hatred against the sect elsewhere in the country. (In November, anti-Ahmadi demonstrators paralyzed the Pakistani capital, Islamabad, for weeks and an attempt by the government to clear out the protest site ended in deadly clashes that spilled over to other parts of the country.)
In a bustling bazaar on the busy Aqsa Road, women in thick button-down loose robe abayas distinctive to the Ahmadis could be seen smelling oranges at fruit stalls, haggling with jewelry store owners and hailing yellow taxis. In neighboring towns like Faisalabad and Chiniot, shop signs warn Ahmadis not to enter: "First enter Islam, then enter this shop!" But here in the bazaar, almost every second store had the word Ahmadi in its name: Ahmadi Tailors. Ahmadi General Store. Ahmadi Hardware.
After nightfall, children played cricket in well-kept parks while their fathers gathered around coal heaters. Others could be seen walking back from school, bowed under the weight of colorful knapsacks. Rabwah's few, overcrowded schools must run on two shifts — morning and evening — to make sure everyone gets an education.

The Lithuanian companies working on the roads have been reorganized on January 1st, 1965, for the purpose of separating the road construction and road exploitation. Therefore, the Panevezys Road Building Society No. 5 was established and took over the road, street and bridge building and reconstruction projects in the region. Algimantas Butkunas was appointed as the Director of the Panevezys Road Building Society No. 5 and Jonas Grazys became the Chief Engineer.
• In 1965 the Karsakiskis manufacturing base was established, which had the first thermos for asphalt compound in the country. The base was in use until 1989. • In 1965 the Pakruojis asphalt-concrete base was established, where the asphalt mixer was exploited, granite macadam was made and concrete mixer worked for two years. The base was in use until 1989. • In 1967 four bridges were built in Pasvalys-Siauliai route.• In 1969 the bridge over Nevezis River in Respublikos Street in Panevezys was completed.• In 1969 the establishment of the administrative and manufacturing base in Saldeliu Street (now S. Kerbedzio Street) in Panevezys was completed. • In 1970 a stonebreaker was built in the Paistrys gravel-sand quarry. • In 1970 the bridge reconstruction over Levuo River in Panevezys-Pasvalys route was completed and the building of Kaunas-Cinkiskis (Klaipeda) highway had begun. The works on the Vilnius-Kaunas highway – the first in Lithuania – were completed. There were double traffic lanes constructed in each direction and they were separated by a lawn. • In 1971 the reconstruction of the third category road Pasvalys-Siauliai was finished and the asphalt coating was 7 metres wide. • In 1972 the reconstruction of the Panevezys-Krekenava road was completed. 11.1 km of the road was renewed and the sections of Smilgiai-Rozalimas route amounting to 12.5 km overall were reconstructed. • In 1973 the departure road from Ukmerge in Ukmerge-Panevezys route undergone major repairs and the asphalt coating was widened. In Panevezys-Pasvalys rote 15.9 km section was reconstructed. • In 1974 the 8.9 km length section of Krekenava-Panevezys road was reconstructed. • In 1977 the 8.82 km length section in Troskunai-Juostininkai road was reconstructed. • In 1978 the construction of the concrete unit and cement warehouse in Sandeliu Street in Panevezys was completed. In Krekenava-Upyte road a 7.5 km length section was reconstructed. • In 1979 the bridge over Nevezys River in Elektronikos Street in Panevezys was built. The bridge length is 53 metres, overall width – 20.5 m. • In 1980 the Panevezys-Siauliai road was reconstructed. 32.7 km of second category roads was built along with 7.5 m wide carriageway.

There is almost nothing I enjoy more than cuddling up with my daughters and watching a movie or a few TV shows. Some of our favorites include The Cat in the Hat Knows A Lot About That and Thomas Edison's Secret Lab. So we were all excited when NCircle Entertainment sent us copies of their May titles and they included those! There is also Guess How Much I Love You, which is one of our favorite books to read, and Super 4, which is from playmobil!
Thomas Edison's Secret Lab: It's Always Sharkest
Unknown to the world, Thomas Edison built a secret lab where he invented a virtual version of himself and a steampunk robot named Von Bolt. Years later, Angie, a twelve-year-old science prodigy, discovers the lab. Join Angie and friends as they learn and explore a variety of science topics from a shark's sense of smell to plants and pollinator's roles to radioactive decay to DNA and more!
While visiting one of Kent's relatives, the kids come up with a great idea for attracting more tourists to his restaurant – the only catch is that it also attracts a very big shark with very big teeth! What will the Secret Lab Kids do? Guided by fun-loving Edison, Angie and friends will show just how fun science can be!
The Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About Camping!
It's the first day of Summer Vacation and The Cat in the Hat whisks Nick, Sally and Fish off on the greatest great outdoor camping adventure ever! Our gang gets back to nature as they hike through the Fickle Fern Forest, camp out overnight, trek over Mt. Weewobble and canoe down the Tickle Drop River….just in time for Fish to meet up with his family for a grand reunion. Along for the ride are Little Cats A, B and C, who discover there's wonder in nature once their electronic devices are powered off!
Nick and Sally help keep the Little Cats out of trouble, while Fish tries to keep his jacket pressed and the mud out of his fancy fishbowl…all while getting up close to some of nature's most awesome sights, and learning how best to respect them. After being lulled to sleep under the stars by a chorus of animals, the morning brings fresh adventure with a spectacular race up Mt. Weewobble, complete with a cliffhanger ending! It's a slippery ride down the slope and into the Tickle Drop River, where a harrowing raft ride finally delivers them to the shores of Fish's family reunion.
The Cat in the Hat and his loveable Little Cat cousins, Nick, Sally, Fish and all his family, gather together in a great Suessian-style musical finale… in which Fish and the gang are celebrated as true adventurers. Everyone agrees it really has been the Greatest Great Outdoors Adventure ever!

Welcome to Enchanted Island, an island covered with a mysterious enchanted forest, which is home to every form of magical creature you could ever imagine – fairies, mischievous boy sprites, unicorns, sirens, ancient tree spirits, and magic wishing wells. Visitors to Enchanted Isle must beware – for nothing is ever quite what it seems, and dreams and reality quickly become one.
At the center of the forest is the palace of the capricious Fairy Queen, who is in a constant temper due to being turned into a frog by a talented young fairy who overdid herself and, in an attempt to grant the ultimate favor to the queen by making her "even more pretty", she cast a spell that in fact gave her the head of a frog! Unfortunately, that talented young fairy is our friend, Twinkle. Twinkle has great potential as a fairy but she must learn to master her wand and its magic. Join Twinkle along with her Super 4 friends as they band together to fight villains and save their worlds from chaos.

Thank you to the Earthwatch Institute who came to complete Citizen Science with us yesterday. We really enjoyed looking for worms and other creatures. We had some tracks left by animals, we think it was a squirrel. We will now create our wildlife guide for the school.
On Friday 14th October 2016, Woodpeckers visited Chedworth Roman Villa. It really brought our topic alive seeing a real-life villa. We even dressed up as slaves and made some medicine bags. Here are some pictures of the day:

Years ago, when I first began working in Miami as a photo assistant I was introduced to the secluded beach paradise of the The Moorings Village in Islamorada. I spent many days working on its beautiful beaches and it is always the first place that comes to mind when looking for the idyllic island backdrop. Together in collaboration with The Knot and the art direction of Joy Proctor I photographed this engagement editorial for the Special Edition Gay Weddings Issue of The Knot. All about carefree romance, the lure of the ocean breeze and the smell of salt water in the air, this shoot reminds me once again of the magic and beauty in Islamorada.
Featured in the 2015 The Knot Gay Weddings Issue.

Maserati Wants to Build its Own 4C Sports Car
The Alfa Romeo 4C sports car is drawing attention from all corners of the auto industry. According to AutoExpress, it's even piqued the interest of its sister company, Maserati.
Following on its plans to sell 50,000 vehicles a year by 2015, the Italian automaker, or at least its boss Harald Wester, also said that a variant to the 4C sports car could very well be in the cards too.
"It's a nice idea," Wester said when asked by AutoExpress about Maserati's plans.
With the new Ghibli joining the ranks of the Quattroporte, the GranTurismo and the GranCabrio in Maserati's ranks, questions on whether the automaker spreading itself a little too thin aren't unjustified. And don't forget the Levante SUV, which is scheduled to be unveiled next year.
But if there's an entry level in Maserati's future, it couldn't have picked a better one than the Alfa Romeo 4C.
Click past the jump to read more about the Alfa Romeo 4C
Alfa Romeo 4C
It took years to before a production version was prepared, but the wait was sure worth it. The Alfa Romeo 4C has been described as a game changer for Alfa Romeo and for all the right reasons.
The production version of the 4C is powered by a four-cylinder 1,750 cc turbocharged engine that delivers an output of 240 horsepower and is capable of hitting 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 4.5 seconds with a top speed of 160 mph.
Alfa Romeo has yet to announce any pricing details for the 4C, but the car is expected to hit dealerships later this year.
