Galesburg, IL
The Carl Sandburg College Board of Trustees has selected Dr. Seamus Reilly to become the College's seventh president.
Reilly, who has been vice president of institutional advancement at Parkland College in Champaign since 2008, was chosen from a nationwide search that yielded more than 40 applicants. The Board has scheduled a special meeting at 5 p.m. Wednesday on the College's Main Campus in Galesburg to formally approve the selection.
"I would like to thank the Board of Trustees for the opportunity to be the next president at Carl Sandburg College. I am honored and humbled by the chance to serve this great institution and look forward to joining the community," Reilly said. "My focus will be on building and creating relationships with everyone in the District 518 community to aid in the transformation of individual lives and to continue the growth and development of the community and region. Carl Sandburg is involved in working to make dreams become reality, to make what is potential possible and to provide opportunities for success. I am excited to be part of the Sandburg family."
Prior to his position as vice president, Reilly chaired the Fine and Applied Arts Department at Parkland from 2006-08 and was director of literature, philosophy and religion there from 2001-03. He also served as the acting director of business and technical writing at the University of Illinois from 1997-98, and he has faculty experience at Parkland, the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, Bradley University, Illinois Central College and as an English as a Second Language instructor in Madrid, Spain.
A native of Ireland, Reilly holds Bachelor of Arts degrees in English and history as well as Master of Arts degrees in modern English and American literature from University College Dublin. He earned his doctorate in English from the U of I in 1997.
"Dr. Reilly's defining qualities — integrity and intelligence — will serve Carl Sandburg College's future well," Board of Trustees Chairperson Tom Colclasure said. "Dr. Reilly brings creative thinking, heart and a leadership style that will greatly benefit the students, the Sandburg family of faculty, staff and administration and the broader community as well."
Reilly will begin the position July 1, replacing current president Dr. Lori Sundberg, who will step down in June after eight years as president.
"Dr. Reilly comes to Sandburg exceptionally well prepared to be a president, and I believe Carl Sandburg College is in good hands as it moves into the next phase of its life cycle," Sundberg said. "I want to take this time to thank the Board of Trustees for creating a deliberative and inclusive process in selecting the next president. I think the entire campus community felt included in this incredibly important decision."

Mon Feb 10, 2014 8:59 pm
Full (furcadia) Name: Gallantry
Alias/Nickname: Sparky
Name of alts we may know you as: Galantry
Why do you want this character?:
gallantry is the pony that first came to me as my own, I may have had other ideas for OC's, but Gallantry has always stayed with me for the now multiple years that I have been into My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic. He has always provided me with a source of passion for the show and community, and for himself. Not only has he been my OC, he is his own person as well. He shares his own stories and tells me about his own nation as much as I make it myself. Gallantry has become one of those characters that has come into a life of their own and I would not trade him for the chance to play any main cannon character even.
How often are you online?:
I am on a couple times during the week, but often am busy on weekends.
A couple millennium.

Nevermane: A country of pegasi and griffons that manage the weather of the oceans of the world.
Works all over the world as his position demands he keep up and coordinate with all nations that he can, however, he mostly is found in Nevermane over the oceans of the world.
Ruler of Nevermane, Prince Gallantry, Alicorn of Weather.
Short Introduction:
I would want you to know that Gallantry is a very noble pony that sees himself as a ruler by necessity, but prefers to able to work with any pony as if he were just any random pony out there. he knows how to be a neutral force, but will stick up for ponies and step in where he can to help in situations that someone should stick up in. Though he may be an alicorn, that is not what defines him, it only helps him better help and care for those he wants to.
You say, Gallantry is a male unicorn that wroks directly with the weather of the world, and helps to organize it across many nations. He has lead the nation of Nevermane for a couple thousand years now, a country of pegasi and griffons that handle the weather over the oceans of the world and work with many nations and especially coastline towns and cities to co-ordinate weather patterns as all weather, especially the large scale weather, eventually travels over the oceans. There are many islands that have joined Nevermane over time both for neccessity to keep their weather in tact and have a say in it, and to be connected to the greater world as a whole. So there are all sorts of ponies and races apart of Nevermane, including things like sea serpents and ocean creatures that work with Nevermane to keep ocean currents, and the ocean weather, in sync. Of those, Gallantry's mother was apart of the islands that joined Nevermane long ago. She was a zebra from the Shellfeather tribe, named after their close relationship to both the sea, and the griffons that they shared the island with. Gallantry's father was an Alicorn as well, the previous ruler of Nevermane, and previous tendent to the world's weather. Though Gallantry was born and had many a wonderful time with his parents, they eventually mysteriously disappeared into a far corner of the world and have yet to be seen again. Although he has searched for them all through his travels and has never quite given up on them Gallantry grew into his role as a Ruler and Weather Tendent very quickly. He has been traveling across the world and Equestria constantly and has seen and heard many things. He meets with Celestia, and Luna now and then, and knew them both before Luna was banished to the moon. He was never a mentor to them, rather another alicorn responsible for helping the world work and caring for other ponies. In this, he is both widely known and not known. Not being a major figurehead in many ponies lives since his work is done closely over the oceans and coastlines mostly many of those on the coast have seen or worked with him and his nation but, those inland do not quite have a huge reason to know of him besides those personally responsible for the weather as they still have to work with Nevermane and Gallantry to make sure the ocean's weather, and the continental weather, never clash to hard and to gauge how much rainfall from the ocean comes inland, how far and wide natural disasters need to be made, etc.
A muscled stallion, but a friendly one, whom just so happens to be an alicorn with some odd, but perhaps fun, traits and colors. His fur is a mixture of a lovely light blue and a perfect snow white stripes zig-zagging their way all over him. His mane all falls to one side, a mixture of violet and crimson, while his tail is long and has a wild flare to it. His huge, regal, and utterly expansive wings are very neatly preened and cared for. Odder still, he has three horns upon his head instead of the usual one, all the same blue as his fur. However, he always has a warm smile on muzzle to greet others. On each leg is a golden bracelet, with a sapphire in the middle that matches the blue of his body perfectly, signifying his royalty.
Gallantry's personality is embodied almost in full by his name. Thought he is a ruler he is humble of that aspect of himself and does not make it his identity. Rather than flaunt it, he acknowledges and uses it when necessary, but prefers to work with ponies as if he were just another random pony out in the world. He embodies a more neutral standpoint on the world as he has to work with so many different nations as the alicorn of weather. There are many times and things that he finds in his travels and duties as a ruler that he rather dislikes and rather loves. However, he is capable of seeing the larger picture of situations and will do things that many could consider both good, or bad, depending on one's point of view. In that, he fits the ideal of Gallantry. To keep oneself to a reasonable person, working for and helping others, but being able to handle making hard choices when it comes to safety or health of many. In situations that he can help he will try to, from large political matters to some pony on the road having their cart break and Gallantry flying not only the pony but their goods to where the pony needs to go. Though he is capable of what some many consider poor moral choices, he shoulders the burden that comes with those choices without complaint when making the 'good' choice might get ponies killed, or their bad situations made even worse. He will help where he can, but not try to force his hoof if waiting a bit longer can help out many more.
Ruler of Nevermane and alicorn responsible for tending to the world's global weather system while being mainly focused upon the oceanic weather systems. He travel over the entire world to organize the wider world weather with as many nations as he can because they all eventually connect and cross over the oceans. Also, he tends to and takes care of his own people of Nevermane, along with the many individual oceanic islands and some coastlines that have joined the nation over time. He is as much a diplomat as he is ruler, and weatherpony.

Sample Post:
The large flowing wings of Gallantry beat at the air in an audible signal of his coming. Heading to the ledge of one of the many grand towers of the Canterlot palace he touched down with a grace of royalty and an expression of noble reservation. However, upon the touch of his hooves to the marbled floor and furling of his wings with a soft rustle of their feather he immediately returned the bow that the palace guards were giving to him. It was not a surprising action anymore as these guards were used to meeting Gallantry. Rather it was an accepted and elegant acknowledgement of respect to one another for their respective duties. Upon raising himself back up to a full standing posture his noble, clear, but humble voice came out to the guards, "Thank you for the escort once again my friends, it is a pleasure to see you both in good health once more." The guards gave him both a big smile and proceeded to have quite the normal conversation with Gallantry as they lead him through the many halls of the palace towards his meeting with the Princess of the Night, Princess Luna. They treated him with the respect that they would give to a guard captain, but also the sense of familiarity that normally came with that respect for Gallantry did his best to promote it as much as he could. When finally it came time to enter the quarters of Princess Luna and his name was announced, he was bowing before the doors even opened up, his voice having the formal touch of royalty, but also, the warmth that came with being a friend having not seen another friend in a long while, "Good evening Princess Luna, thank you for seeing an old weather pony again. Your night was beautiful to fly under, as it always has been."

04 Jul In Rio de Janeiro, Siviero performs on top of Corcovado
Considered one of the wonders in the world postcard of one of the most beautiful places on the planet, the Corcovado was the scenario for the presentation of the pianist Alvaro Siviero who, for the second time, performs in this gorgeous place. The project "With open arms", promoted by the Archdiocese of Rio de Janeiro and Pirelli, seeks to remind everyone that, following the example given by the Christ, mankind can learn to live in harmony seeking everyone else's well being. And Music – with its enrichment and transformation power – is fundamental. The participation of the violinist Winston Ramalho gave to the moment a special artistic touch.
The launch of the project counted on the presence of several authorities who think of promoting the same intiative in other parts of the world. Yes, the world is getting smaller and smaller every day. The attitude of living with each one arms wide open brings to existence an unsuspected component of joy and sense of life.
Among the works performed: Die Fledermaus by Strauss-Grunfeld, Polonaise Op.53 in A flat major by Chopin, besides works by Ernesto Nazareth, Massenet, among others.

Long time no speak, I've had such a crazy few weeks and I didn't have any posts scheduled and waiting to post, so unfortunately my blog has suffered slightly. But fear not I'm back in business...
Brows are undeniably a big deal to any girl and we spend a long time preening and combing and gelling them so they look on point. I'm sure any beauty lover has a small stash of eyebrow products, I certainly own more brow powders then you can shake a stick at.
I bought this eyebrow kit absolutely ages ago, after watching +Shaaanxo use it over and over again, but after using it once I thought the colour was too warm for me and it was pushed to the bottom of my beauty stash. I was self admittedly fearful of the tinted wax so I'd never fully given this product a fair chance. After recently falling in love with NYX wax pencil brow shaper [review here] I decided to give the ELF wax another go and I was pleasantly surprised.
E.L.F Cosmetics Studio Eyebrow Kit £3.95
L - R | Powder & Wax | Wax Alone | Powder Alone
The powder and the wax alone look, for lack of a better word, iffy, but when paired together they create the perfect shade that complements my skin tone and works in harmony with my natural brow colour. Using a tinted wax can be messy to say the least so a good precise brush is a must along with a concealer to eliminate any mistakes.
The brush included isn't great but for £3.95 you really cant grumble, and you can pick a good quality brush up for next to nothing.
If I fancy bold brows then I use this kit to really carve out the tail end of my brows and I lightly feather a lighter powder through the front to give them a fluffy appearance.
Which products did you loathe but now you love? Let me know in the comments, I love hearing how the product managed to change you mind.

The members of the Association of Women Lawyers ("AWL") were invited to attend the panel presentation "Advocating for SRHR: The Malaysian Experience", organised by the Coalition for Sexual and Bodily Rights in Muslim Societies (CSBR). I attended in my capacity as secretary of AWL.
The event was held on Wednesday, 20th July, 2011 from 4-6pm at the Cyberview Lodge, Persiaran Multimedia, Cyberjaya.
The event was chaired by Meera Samanther, President of AWL.
The following panellists spoke on their respective topics as listed below:
1) Julian Lee, "Moral Policing in Malaysia"
2) Rashidah Abdullah, "Abortion Rights and Challenges"
3) Pang Khee Teik, "Seksualiti Merdeka: Reaching Out Without Over-reaching"
4) Abigail de Vries, "Project Sentuh: Connecting The Dots Between Violence Against Women& Sexual Rights Through Art and Activism"
Unfortunately, I was delayed due to prior work commitments and missed Mr. Julian Lee's session, so this report is a summary of the content presented by the other three speakers.
Ms Rashidah Abdullah, Co-Chair of the Reproductive Rights Advocacy Alliance Malaysia (RRAAM), presented a talk on "Abortion Rights and Challenges".
In Malaysia, abortion is legal for very liberal reasons since 1989 when the Penal Code was amended. The only pre-requisite for an abortion is that the doctor needs to hold the opinion that the continued pregnancy would be injurious to the women's physical and mental health.
Statistics have revealed that rape cases in the country have tripled in the past 10 years. One baby is abandoned every ten days and that there are 2,500 illegitimate births each month on average. Majority of these are Muslim babies.
However, although abortion is legal in Malaysia, 41% of the women are unaware of the legal conditions for an abortion as this is considered taboo. Unsurprisingly, many women seeking an abortion have resorted to an abortion at sea, popularly termed "Women on Waves" which involves a sea voyage on abortion boats on international waters. A few have even attempted to conduct abortions alone at home via a webcam under the instruction of a doctor. Few are aware that clinic abortions are simple procedures which may be completed in just a few hours.
There are many reasons for such ignorance.
Lack of media coverage is one reason; lack of properly trained medical professionals is another. Misconceptions and ignorance on the legalities of abortion and the judgmental attitude of health professionals for women whose rights have already been violated have also resulted in the creation of barriers for women trying to access legal abortions in the country.
Apart from this, Muslim women's reproductive rights are further curtailed by the increasing Islamisation of the public healthcare system. We were told of a true story where a doctor in private practice had referred a young Muslim women to a government hospital for further treatment, following an abortion. However, she was prevented from being discharged from the hospital until she had been "counseled" by a religious officer who in turn, informed her parents without her consent. These are some of the reasons many young Muslim women are driven to illegal and unsafe abortions.
Furthermore, the lack of quality education on reproductive health, sexuality and sexual violence prevention is an issue which needs to be resolved. The root of the problem is that the government has failed to acknowledge the need to provide sexual education to our youth.
The Malaysia Federation of Reproductive Health Associations (formerly known as Federation of Family Planning Associations) aims at educating Malaysians in family planning and supporting effective sexual and reproductive health services. RRAAM is set up to accurately inform the public about women's contraception and the abortion law, to empower them on their reproductive rights.
The current challenge faced by RRAM is that these issues of reproductive and sexual rights are not on the priority list of the various women NGOs whose main focus areas on eradicating violence against women.
Pang Khee Teik, Co-Founder of Seksualiti Merdeka, presented a talk on "Seksualiti Merdeka: Reaching Out Without Over-reaching"
Seksualiti Merdeka is an annual sexuality rights festival which celebrates "Freedom to Love", featuring a programme of talks, workshops, art, theatre, music performances and film screenings. It uses a non-confrontational method via the Arts to apprise the public that "it is our right to be responsible for our own bodies" and also to educate the LGBT (Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals and Transsexuals) community of their rights.
The media is generally reticent in publishing news on LGBT but theatre performances staged by Seksualiti Merdeka allows the media to indirectly write about LGBT issues as such articles would appear in the Lifestyle section of local newspapers covering the arts and theatre.
Seksuality Merdeka enjoys the support of the Bar Council Human Rights Committee, United Nations, Pink Triangle Foundation and the Ministry of Women & Children and various NGOs.
Pang says that the Malaysian government has successfully demonised the concept of rights. For example, "special rights" of the Bumiputras (which translates to property and monetary rights) cannot be discussed or negotiated. The idea of rights has become inferior and what he means by that is that it the public is made to think that if one party has rights, then it necessarily means that someone else would have inferior rights.
Another story that Pang shared was that most gays have two facebook profiles: the "straight" profile and the "gay" profile. The reason behind this is due to the stigma and fear of the repercussions that may arise from "coming out" to friends and colleagues and society at large.
Seksualiti Merdeka's aim is to affirm sexuality rights as human rights and to provide LGBT with a platform for advocacy of their rights.

Abigail de Vries presented a talk on "Project Sentuh: Connecting The Dots Between violence"
Project Sentuh (coined from two words, "Sexuality" and "Tubuh") is an art and activism event to highlight discrimination against sexuality. This project, held in 2009 was joint project with JAG (Joint Action Group for Gender Equality, comprising of WAO, AWAM, SIS, Empower and WCC) and the artists groups.
Installation art and theatre performances and was used to engage new audiences, in particular the Muslim youth. Project Sentuh was held during the"16 Days of Activism" campaign. The 16 days campaign is held yearly to raise awareness to end violence against women. During Project Sentuh, 5 real cases were used as content. For example, khalwat raids which have resulted in deaths, violent beatings against transgendered women in Melaka, the story of a local actress who shaved her hair for a role and was attacked for her "lack of Islamic morals". The scenes would be acted out in different rooms in a "House of Horrors" and the audience would be invited to walk through each room and watch each sketch as it is being acted out.
This campaign provided an avenue to showcase through the medium of theatre performances, issues which touch on sexuality, gender norms and body autonomy to educate and sensitise the public to the same.
Abigail went through a bit of history and shared that in 1999, Women's Agenda for Change (a coalition of many women NGOs) had put forward a lobby document to articulate on the position of women's rights and it included a chapter on non-sexual discrimination.
In year 2009, a Statement was issued by JAG for the abolishment of Section 498 of the Penal Code which was deemed to be discriminatory against women and to bring the law on "enticement" to an end. It was asserted that every person has a right to control over his or her body and sexuality. In 2005, Malaysians against moral policing also fought for the end of violence against transgenders.
The afternoon soon ended and the participants who came from various countries such as Indonesia, Africa, Iran, Turkey, Palestine, Phillipines , Cambodia adjourned for a celebratory buffet dinner nearby.
After dinner, there were speeches and toasts and some singing. But what really stayed in my mind was the round song that we were asked to sing in little groups of 4 or 5. I found the lyrics interesting and these are reproduced below:

The artistic director of the Institute of Contemporary Arts, Ekow Eshun, used a soft-ball interview in Saturday's Guardian to publicly announce his resignation. Eshun has presided over a rocky five years at the ICA: though audience numbers were up, a financial crisis created by bad luck (the recession) and poor judgment (the scrapping of Beck's Futures and the abolition of the entrance fee) left the Institute on the brink of insolvency earlier this year. Though things have since improved, Eshun's departure means that the ICA is now looking for a new individual to lead it forwards and tackle the ongoing conundrum: in a world where contemporary art is amply catered for, what does it stand for?

Health inequalities in Ethiopia: modeling inequalities in length of life within and between population groups
TypeJournal article
Peer reviewed
MetadataShow full item record
Background and objectives: Most studies on health inequalities use average measures, but describing the distribution of health can also provide valuable knowledge. In this paper, we estimate and compare within-group and between-group inequalities in length of life for population groups in Ethiopia in 2000 and 2011.
Methods: We used data from the 2011 and 2000 Ethiopia Demographic and Health Survey and the Global Burden of Disease study 2010, and the MODMATCH modified logit life table system developed by the World Health Organization to model mortality rates, life expectancy, and length of life for Ethiopian population groups stratified by wealth quintiles, gender and residence. We then estimated and compared within-group and between-group inequality in length of life using the Gini index and absolute length of life inequality.
Results: Length of life inequality has decreased and life expectancy has increased for all population groups between 2000 and 2011. Length of life inequality within wealth quintiles is about three times larger than the between-group inequality of 9 years. Total length of life inequality in Ethiopia was 27.6 years in 2011.
Conclusion: Longevity has increased and the distribution of health in Ethiopia is more equal in 2011 than 2000, with length of life inequality reduced for all population groups. Still there is considerable potential for further improvement. In the Ethiopian context with a poor and highly rural population, inequality in length of life within wealth quintiles is considerably larger than between them. This suggests that other factors than wealth substantially contribute to total health inequality in Ethiopia and that identification and quantification of these factors will be important for identifying proper measures to further reduce length of life inequality.

Making a list can alleviate all kinds of stress - particularly around the holidays when it seems that the to-do's will never get to-done.
The same goes for preparing to buy (or sell) a home. If you've written off the home search for the holidays, and you think spring is a better time to buy when more inventory will be available - think twice.
Sellers list their home for all kinds of reasons that are not tied to the seasons - job relocation, need for a bigger house with a growing family, or they don't want the competition of the 'busier' months of spring and fall.
There's no reason why your dream home couldn't come on the market in January or February - so best to be prepared:
- Get preapproved (#1 must-do)
- Know your credit score
- Understand how much you can afford
- Calculate your down payment
- Bump up your savings account
- Ask for referrals (for mortgage brokers, lenders, and real estate professionals)
Start ticking down the list one at a time and all of a sudden it won't seem like such a daunting task - and you'll be ready to move quickly when the home you've been waiting for becomes available.

Fantastic Care!!
I could not be happier with the service provided by this company! The staff there always have smiles and every time I visit my family here, the place is sparkling clean. This place does a great job of providing a home to people who need assistance and I highly recommend it.
Very Disappointing
We recently had my father move in on a trial basis at Bridgepoint. I would have to say we as a family couldn't be more disappointed. The under staffing, the poor food quality and lack of concern is frightening. We have contacted Bridgepoint many times with our concerns but are either promised improvements that never come or simply ignored. My father is woken at all hours of the night needlessly. I love my dad and am crushed this was his experience. Bridgepoint may be a pretty building, but that is the only thing positive I can write in a review.
The building is also being sprayed for fleas....I was told no pets but a resident has a pet that now brought fleas into the building.
Please spare your loved ones the disappointment. Just ask any resident- they are not happy. It's such a shame, Bowling Green could really use the facility.
Great concept/ no execution......Didn't expect to be able to get in touch with administrators....they simply won't address concerns.
We liked this communtiy
This community has two sides and one is more active than the other. The staff we met here were nice and the community seemed clean. We did not get to try the food but the options on the menu sounded good. They offer family style eating.
We are satisfied so far!!
My wife is adjusting to living at Bridgepointe. This community was recommended by other family and friends. I would recommend this community. The staff are encouraging and very caring. The food is well balanced and tasty. The community is clean and well maintained. They offer daily activities.

In Bumping Into Geniuses Danny Goldberg chronicles the phases of his career — rock journalist, record-company president, manager to musicians ranging from Kurt Cobain to Warren Zevon — with the sort of candor few record-biz execs would attempt. He talks about the substance abuse problems of various clients, less for our morbid curiosity than to take some blame for not doing more to help artists who in most cases were also his friends. Admirably blunt, but also spiked with tart humor. A?

yup - guess who's going to see Depeche Mode tonight!!! :-)
I can't believe it!!! Entirely too exciting… (just downloaded their new album, to make sure the new songs are as good as the old….)
Sigh…. i think it's good that depeched mode didn't make it to glencoe when i was in high school…. i appreciate them much more now….
technorati tags: depeche, mode, concert, toronto, ACC
… it was a worthy concert… considering my last concert was Cher, 4 years ago ;-) Mind you, Depeche Mode didn't trot out a golden elephant….
We were CLOSE to the stage, 'nuff said. Still, they didn't play the obscure songs i love; which seem so obscure, that the wiz said they were uber-obscure.
Turns out, one of my faves, Happiest Girl, never made it officially onto one of their CDs. Imagine that.

I'd made a long list of plans. Things to do, friends to meet, places to see. And everything collapsed. I woke up on Friday (many, many moons ago) with a massive headache and then I began spluttering, sneezing and coughing and coughing, non-stop. Oh holy s—t. After a quick shower and early morning prayers, I started wheezing and feeling clammy. I croaked to Babe that I'm too ill to go to work. I called in sick. I'd taken the afternoon off to have my flu jab done and my eyes tested. I was gutted. I called the surgery to cancel the flu jab and made an emergency appointment to see a doctor.
After a light breakfast, I doused myself with paracetamol and cough syrup, and took a nap in Babe's reclining chair with a hot water bottle and vapour rub for company. I was so exhausted and had a very sleepless night. Thankfully, I managed to have a very short nap but woke up still tired and stuffed. Everytime I moved, I'd coughing fits which was hard on my tummy muscles. Babe dropped me at the surgery and called him after I'd seen the doctor.
Sitting in the reception was tough. Everyone around me was coughing, spluttering sneezing and checking each other with sorrowful eyes. A healthy person will definitely fall sick sitting among this lot. I'm glad Babe wasn't here. It would be difficult if both of us fall ill at the same time especially when Babe wasn't in the best of health. The lovely doctor told me that my chest was rattling hard and I'd a chest infection. I was given antibiotics and an inhaler to help ease my symptom, plus the usual plenty of rest and fluids. I called Babe and we went to Boots to collect my prescriptions and purchase more cough syrup, paracetamol and tissues. It was going to be a long week.
A good laugh and a long sleep are the best cures in the doctor's book.
~Irish proverb~
I spent the week feeling very sorry for myself. I was achy and tired. The nasty cough was really difficult to shift and once I started, it was difficult to stop. I'd been deaf, no sense of smell and taste and fumbling around the casa like the walking dead. I'm tired all the time. God…I'm whinging. My brain seemed to have gone to mush. No one dared to pop over except for this cheeky fella and then he was only for the peanuts :-).I'm trying to remember what I'd been doing many, many moons ago before I succumbed to this horrible lurgy. Gosh… it felt like ages. I think I started the week very positive with the mid-term annual review. My manager and I went through the aims that I'd written down and how many boxes I'd ticked. I must admit that I rushed through the Audit Commission Collections and managed to complete it a few days before the meeting. I was chuffed to bits :-).
CC and I also celebrated Diwali, the Festival of Lights, at the Royal Bengal in Earlsdon. I am not a big fan of Indian food, unless it offered thali. In Hindi, it meant plate and it was an Indian meal made up of a selection of various dishes, usually served in small bowls on a round tray. I'd the chicken curry, lamb curry, vegetable bhaji, tandoori chicken, sheekh kebab with pilau rice and garlic nan bread. We started the meal with huge poppadums and several chutneys and washed down with a mug of milky tea. English oldies interspersed with Bollywood songs were piped around us. Would I come again? I think not. The service was superb. It was just that I'd eaten better thali than this.
Islamic New year 1434 fell on Thursday. Muharram was the first month in the Islamic calendar. Muslims took time on the first day of the month to reflect on their lives and to think how they can improve them. Some Muslims fast during the hours of daylight on the ninth and 10th or first, 10th and 11th days to commemorate that Noah left the ark and that God saved Moses from the Egyptians. Shi'a Muslims beat or whipped themselves as part of a mourning ritual for Husayn ibn Ali (grandson of the Prophet Muhammad SAW) on the Day of Ashura. I salute the religious leaders who encouraged Muslims that felt that they should lose some blood on this day to donate blood to the blood transfusion service. That was a very modern attitude towards ancient rituals. Well-done.
I didn't cast my vote for the election of the Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC). And I wasn't alone. It was the lowest turnout. Maybe the reason people didn't vote was they didn't understand the purpose of the role, they didn't want the role, they never asked for the role! Or choosing not to vote was their vote. For me the millions would be better spent on more local police station hours, more police officers on the beat, more victim support units and increased police budgets.
While I was resting, Babe took the opportunity during the lull in the atrocious weather to check out the natives at our favourite playground. How I wished I could tag along. When Babe returned from his short trip, he told me that he'd met M & K who we'd not seen for ages. I'm glad they were ok. Babe took several lovely shots of the very elusive Water-rail dashing among the reeds outside East Marsh hideBabe also started putting dog food out for the foxes when he spotted a vixen out and about in the garden during broad daylight. She must have been very hungry to be seen during the day time. We put the food out before we went to bed. It was a fight to prevent the cats from polishing the food first. Babe had installed the webcam again and we watched them slowly skulking in from the warm comfort of our bedroom. It was quite tough too when I'd one of my coughing fits. Foxes had very sharp hearing and a slight sound… and they were gone. But they returned again.
Shake paws, count your claws,
You steal mine, I'll borrow yours.
Watch my whiskers, check both ears.
Robber foxes have no fears.
~Brian Jacques~
Everything in the garden had been battered by the horrendous weather conditions. But I'd a very nice surprise when I spotted the Peacock Orchids blooming. I'd potted them about 3 years ago and this was the first time they bloomed. I'd given up on them because they were supposed to bloom between July and September. Better later than never, huh!!! The flowers had a light, clean fragrance like mild soap. Not that I can smell anything. We'd been eating rubbish like cheese sandwiches, doughnuts, sausages, pasties and burgers. I blame my taste buds, dulled from taking the different medication. We supplemented our rations with grapes, oranges and one of our favourite, persimmons. Before I fell ill, I managed to bake this tomato and onion focaccia. I still need to get grips with the kneading techniques.
The only way to keep your health is to eat what you don't want, drink what you don't like, and do what you'd druther not.

JEONGSEON, South Korea (AP) No super-steep gradients, no rock-hard ice, no death-defying speeds.
It's not what Christof Innerhofer had in mind for the downhill course for the 2018 Pyeongchang Olympics. The Italian skier prefers only the toughest challenges and the Jeongseon piste - the first downhill developed in South Korea - is much tamer than what World Cup racers are accustomed to.
''Downhill is (called) downhill because you must go 130-160kph (80-100mph). When you see the speed and you see 96 kph (60 mph) a lot of people will say, `What is this for downhill? I can do this, too.' This is a little bit sad.''
''They don't need slow motion here,'' added Innerhofer, who took silver in downhill and a bronze in combined on a much more challenging course at the 2014 Sochi Olympics.
Innerhofer, though, was one of the few skiers critical of the course during the first test event for the next Winter Olympics.
Kjetil Jansrud led a chorus of approval after leading the opening World Cup training session Thursday.
''It's one of the first downhills in a long, long time where we've had winter conditions and real good snow and sun, so just that alone makes for a good downhill,'' Jansrud said.
The Norwegian skier, an athletes' rep, said Innerhofer could come to him with any concerns or criticism and he'd take it to course setter Hannes Trinkl, or said the Italian could go directly to officials himself.
''If you ask a lot of people some are going to say it's slow because they like it when it's fast. Some are going to say it's perfect because they like it the way it is. That's part of the game,'' said Jansrud, who averaged 100.02 kph (62 mph) during his run.
Innerhofer placed 32nd, more than two seconds behind.
Another training session is scheduled for Friday, followed by the downhill race Saturday and a super-G on Sunday.
The Alpine venue was developed specifically for the Olympics. It features only three slopes - a downhill course, a slalom run for combined, and a training piste - and is not open to the public.
''(There's) a lot of mountains here,'' Innerhofer said. ''I think they can find one that is a little bit more steep.''
With women to use the same course as the men during the 2018 Games, the downhill's steepest gradient is 65 percent, with an average incline of 29 percent.
''They've done a good job. It's a wide-open track,'' U.S. head coach Sasha Rearick said. ''A lot of air time - something that we like. It's not an old-school downhill challenge by any means. It's got its own unique challenges - a lot of blind turns, you got to be able carry momentum from the top to the bottom through big downhill-type turns.''
Course designer Bernhard Russi, the 1972 Olympic champion, also probably had in mind that at the Olympics there are often downhillers entered from countries who don't usually race the World Cup.
''You have all the different nations running it who don't want to kill themselves,'' American racer Marco Sullivan explained. ''It's not the hardest course but it's going to be fun to watch with the big jumps. It's fun to ski. And that's really what you need.''
Especially in a season that has been marred by season-ending crashes to standouts such as two-time overall World Cup winner Aksel Lund Svindal and Sochi gold medalist Matthias Mayer.
''It's a good downhill,'' Austrian winter sports director Hans Pum said, recalling how the race on the notoriously tough Streif course in Kitzbuehel had to be called after only 30 racers last month following a series of crashes. ''We are always on the limit.''
With cool weather, snow conditions are perfect and the course is completely in the sun.
''That's a big (plus). Everybody loves sun,'' Jansrud said. ''If there's cloudy weather it's going to be (difficult) because it will be a huge difference.''
The four big jumps on the course have no official names yet but the U.S. team has come up with their own, unofficial, titles: Kimchi Kicker, Sushi Slapper and Eggdrop Drop.
''We haven't named the finish jump yet,'' Sullivan explained. ''We're trying to throw a little culture into the course.''
Still, that might not be enough spice for Innerhofer.

The composition follows that of the great icon painted in Constantinople in the late eleventh century and now in the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow. The Virgin's glance varies: sometimes she gazes towards the onlooker, and sometimes it is down, towards her son, or, as we find in the current example, a deep inward gaze into the middle distance. The composition, in the embrace of the two figures, characterises tenderness (Russian: 'Oumileinye'; Greek: 'Eleousa').

Panthers Outlast Greyhounds
J. C. Tilton
These neighboring teams came into the game sporting similar records, Dixie was 5-3, while Twin Valley South was 8-3. South is known for their ball handling and outside shooting, while Dixie is known for their defense and ability to slash to the basket. Dixie has a stronger post presence with Ben Spahr, which South countered by starting equally stout sophomore J. T. Stone. Dixie has encountered many teams assigning a defender to offensive standout Johnny Adams, limiting his touches. Coach Miller has countered this by allowing Adams to play some point on offense - guaranteeing at least one touch per possession. South was down one player as Dale Spitler was serving a two game suspension from an incident at the Oakwood game.
Both teams played some man to man defense early. South went into a 1-4 offensive set and did a good job of knifing to the basket. Late in the quarter Dixie went to a 1-2-2 defense that clogged up the middle. Wes Bassler got some early layups for South and Andy Dawson had a good quarter. South had a 9-2 lead before Dixie called a time out to adjust. South worked in the press briefly, and had a 5 point lead going into the next quarter.
In the second quarter, South settled back and started to launch treys. Wes Bassler knocked down one, while Steve Summers and Andy Dawson had a pair apiece. Dixie's best answer was Johnny Adams who had 7 points in the quarter - one basket was a trey. But this scoring disparity really opened a gap. Going into the locker room South had a commanding 29-15 lead.
In the second half South seemed to be content to sit on their lead. A good passing team, they worked the clock each possession and picked their shots. This limited the touches by the other team and would eventually force them to foul, sending South sharpshooters to the foul line. Dixie was not able to make up much ground for most of the quarter, but in the last minute Ben Spahr got an old fashioned three point play and then Ben Risner dropped one in the bucket. Suddenly it was a 12 point ball game and Dixie had a little momentum going into the stretch.
Dixie gave the gas pedal a little push and closed the gap even more. However early in the quarter they had problems from the free throw line - I counted 5 misses in a row. Even 50% shooting at this point could have made a difference as we shall see. With about 4 and half minutes left it was a 7 point game. The Dixie side of the gym had come to life, up to this point they had to sit on their hands. Now they had something to cheer about and the gym was rocking. After a timeout, Dixie put the pedal all the way to the metal and unveiled their press. Wes Bassler hit a three point shot but then pulling out all of the stops the pressing and trapping Greyhounds went on a 8-0 run. With a little over a minute left, it was a 2 point game. Ben Spahr who had not much a factor to this point in the game scored 7 points in the quarter.
South did not panic and remained poised. They have made a habit out of winning close games. They calmly hung onto the ball and forced Dixie to foul in the last minute. Andy Dawson hit his two throws to extend the lead back to 4. Spahr answered with a basket. Panther Wes Rehmert hit a shot to extend the lead back to three. Dixie tried to set up a three point play, but the basket missed. South got possession and Justin Flynn was fouled and sent to the line. He hit a free throw to provide the final margin of victory 46-42.
Coach Augspurger was asked about the weekend, ōWe told the team before the game this is our house and we need to protect it. Last week Oakwood played really good and we did a terrible job on our court. We did not win any style points. We will take our 2 wins this weekend.ö When asked about the second half, ōWe missed every shot we had. We tried to spread out, run clock, and take good shots. We took good shots, but they didn't drop. But in the fourth when it got close we stepped up and did the things we had to do. The foul shooting at the end was huge. Andy Dawson doesn't go to the line much and he nailed two. Wes Rehmert and Justin Flynn's baskets were huge. Steve Summers had a good game for us.ö
ōLooking back, I wish I had pressed earlierö, lamented Coach Miller, ōWe got off to a slow start. I didn't think that we would be able to press them, it turned out we could. But if we had made our foul shots down the stretch, we could have won the game. If we could have got the lead, with our momentum, we could have won the game. If we had one more minute we could have got this game, we just ran out of time.ö Comments: J. C. Tilton
Scoring for South: Rehmert 4, W. Bassler 10, Dawson 15, Summers 10, Stone 2, Leedy 4, Flynn 1. Dixie: Moore 2, McBain 4, Adams 18, Risner 6, Kummer 1, Spahr 11.

Immortality and the Philosophy of Death
Demise comes for us all – ultimately. Philosophers have lengthy been puzzled via how we should believe approximately dying. many of us worry dying and think that dying is undesirable for the individual that dies. yet is demise undesirable for us, and if this is the case, how is its badness most sensible defined? If we don't live on loss of life –if demise is just a nation of nothingness – how can dying be undesirable for us?
Dual-Process Theories in Moral Psychology: Interdisciplinary Approaches to Theoretical, Empirical and Practical Considerations

The overall effect of your expectation is still inhibitive, but only because it arouses your aversion to shouting as well as your inclination to do what you expect. Similarly, you'd rather step into traffic knowingly than unawares, but since you'd rather not step into traffic at all, the knowledge that you' re going to is more alarming than it is encouraging. Thus, cases in which you realize that you're about to do something undesirable do not disprove my claim that an action is made more desirable by virtue of being expected, and so they cannot disprove my claim that the expectation of doing something gives you some additional motive for doing it.
All that your remark implies, then, is that thinking you expected the outcome turned out to be quite different from actually expecting it insofar as concerns how you were prepared to feel and to act about it. As for how you were prepared to describe the outcome, however, your apparent expectation was just as good as a real one. For whether you actually expected the event under a particular description or merely believed that you did, you would still have been prepared to apply that description when the event arrived.
All it. says is that your efforts at making sense of a particular agent usually succeed because of his reciprocal efforts at making sense to you. What could be simpler than to explain that you understand someone partly because he's trying to make himself understood? Well, in this case, plenty. For in this case, the explanation is not just that the agent tries to be understood but also that his efforts to be understood are inseparable from your efforts to understand him. The reason is that, in this case, the person understanding and the person understood are one and the same person -- namely, you -- and their motives are numerically identical.


text: This cake was for a sweet little girl named Ava who loves Max and Ruby. "Who?" you might ask!..... Max and Ruby is a children's cartoon on the Disney Channel, made in Canada. For her second birthday, Ava wanted everything to be Ruby, but what her mother didn't know was how difficult it would be to find anyone who carried Ruby products. She ended up contacting us for the cake, and bought the invitations on Ebay from someone in Canada. One day I received a frantic phone call from the mom, distraught over the fact that the birthday venue had to move the birthday party to two weeks early. The invitations had just gone out days before, and there was not enough time to get another international shipment. In the end, she pulled off the perfect birthday party with so much grace and everything went smoothly. Its so sweet that the mother dedicated to making her daughters birthday extra special no matter what obstacles came her way!

"Even so," says the chef of '"l'Imbuto", "in the kitchen is not invented anything."
The chef, who likes to call his art 'craft', with the passing of the years has managed to find the key to his kitchen in simplicity, conquering the culinary palate of the press and the hearts of its guests. Simplicity, however, never predictable, and strictly combined with the selection of raw materials according to their seasonality.
