How many of you have asked this question at least once? I've never done as I have a clear and precise idea on the subject. I literally LOVE tattoos and in fact I have less than 5! :-)
But in this post I would like to compare myself with you to know what is your opinion about this topic and if you think that tattoos are a form of "make-up" or at least a way to make more beautiful our body.
Tattooing is an art really old, you think the ancient Egyptian civilization, a people very artistic in itself in fact they have been found mummies with real geometric designs on the body, tattoos made with a mixture of oil and soot. You also think eyes' makeup is very intense and overwhelming.
as you see even Queen Cleopatra's depictions, for which in ancient times this "ritual" of the paint on the body was much in vogue.
For this reason I think it's simplistic to think that it is a trend in recent years.
We come now to the pros and cons concerning purely medical. The tattoo is an injection of dyes under the skin so it is absolutely ESSENTIAL to ensure that the tattoo artist that we are facing, first he checks the hygiene of the tools, that he uses safe substances and of course that he is able to meet our demands because you always remember that a tattoo is for life so you have to be sure not only 80% but 110% !!!!
Like almost all "fads" and trends Americans are getting a step ahead of us, in fact it is estimated that in the USA there are just under 90 million people tattooed, while in Italy this passion was born a few years, initially on people with an age above 25 years, but slowly the bar fell with children between the ages of 12 and 18 who they choose to do the first tattoo.
I will also document that substances that are injected to us they may also be carcinogenic even if it is absolutely impossible to document an increase in skin cancer in people with tattoo than those who did not have it.
Now I 'll show you my tattoo :
This was the first one that I got at age 15 (I know it may seem early but it was a deal I made with my parents, if the average grades in school was higher than 8.5, I would have got a tattoo, it was not an incentive for me as I have always loved to study but a simple agreement because I've always had a soft spot for the tattoo!!!), it is a simple tribal located in the lower back.
This is the second, it is placed over the breast, on the shoulder
These are two tattoo created at different times but then rejoined into one, they created above the ankle
This is the last tattoo in order of time , and it is also the largest and the one that has a special meaning for me, it is placed on the belly
There is a kind of superstition when you think that tattoos should always be odd and in order to avoid free misfortune hahaha ;-) I stopped at 5.
I haven't ever regretted it and I never will do it because when I decided to get a tattoo design I was sure that I liked it at 110%!
If I can give you some advice, maybe you choose from the many images on the Internet and then you set it as the background on your PC or smartphone so seeing her every day for maybe one or two months in a row you can be sure that if you have not baked then you will really enjoy it!!
That said I'm pro-tattoo because I consider them a form of art and beautification of the body, but don't overdo it, because I don't like for nothing instead of body parts such as arms, back,... completely tattooed, I find them very exaggerated but as you can see it's all a matter of taste!
What do you think? Do you have tattoos or would like to have it?
Please let me know!!
Big kisses!

Travel, in space
Ford kindly loaned me this Galaxy to take part in a big shoot last week, not just as a photographic subject- at which it excelled thanks to its modern looks and panoramic roof (great for driving shots)- but also to carry around the editorial team from the photo magazine that was doing the behind-the-scenes feature.
We moved from location to location shooting different images and styles of long exposure, dodging rain showers, eating junk food and smiling repeatedly for the camera. It was a long night but sadly we never got to see the stars.
And that's kinda how I found myself out the following night beneath an impressively starry sky, piecing together this concept shot that had sold the idea to Ford in the first place.
Multiple lighting frames at ISO200 f/9 merged with stacked star trails at ISO400 f/2.8.
Hope you like it.

With the news of Kardashian-Jenner sisters Kim Kardashian, Kylie Jenner and Khloe Kardashian pregnancy at the same time Twitterati have gone crazy. Both fans and haters of the family are now questioning how it is possible that Kim, Kylie, and Khloe all of them are pregnant as their 10th anniversary is coming.
A source close to the Khloe revealed that earlier she did not disclose her pregnancy news because she didn't want to take the limelight away from Kylie Jenner. However, she was fed up with keeping it as secret, "it is now reaching a point where Khloe doesn't want to be openly lying to people, and just staying quiet isn't going to work anymore" said the sources close to the reality star.
The Twitterati believes either their pregnancy has something to do with their mother Kris Jenner's strategy to create a buzz or they are trying to get as much as media attention for the 10th anniversary of their show.
Khloe Kardashian, pregnancy news was revealed by TMZ. What shocks the fans that earlier in the same week the news of Kylie Jenner's pregnancy broke the internet.
It seems as if the social media was not at all ready for the multiple pregnancies within the same family and that's why twitter had a meltdown.

Always alert to espionage-like threats, says Army
The Army on Saturday said that it is always alert and sensitive to all threats and has taken adequate steps in the wake of the arrest of an army personnel from Siliguri last week in connection with the ISI-linked espionage racket.
"We are aware of the kind of activities that have taken place in the Eastern Command. We are alert all the time and adequate measures are regularly taken on the ground. We are alert, conscious and sensitised to all the threats that can take place," Major General (General Staff) AS Bedi of the Army's Eastern Command told reporters here.
He was asked about the security threats following last week's arrest of Farid Khan, an army hawaldar, who allegedly shared secret information with suspected ISI intelligence operatives.
Pointing out that such incidents have also been reported earlier, Bedi said that there is a regular exchange of information with the police on such cases.
Another senior Army officer said sepoys do not have access to any sensitive information.
"The things they know are already in the public domain or are not sensitive enough to harm us," he said.

Let's start by understanding what a primary index does. A primary index (PI) is used to distribute the rows of a table to the AMPs and on each AMP to order the rows by hash value within the combined partitions defined by a PARTITION BY clause (if this clause is not specified, there is just one partition, that is, the entire table).
One purpose of column-storage (implemented using physical rows called containers) for a column partition is to provide row header compression by having sequential values with increasing uniqueness without having an explicit row header (or rowid) for each value. This means that, for a column-partitioned table with a PI, a container would only be able to contain values with the same internal partition number and hash value. This is likely to cause over-partitioning (partitioning to too fine of a granularity). That is, each container would have one or only a few values. The row header overhead for these containers would cause a large increase (up to 23 times) in space usage. The maintenance overhead could be very expensive.
Some of the complications of having a PI for a CP table could be avoided if the PI was only used for distribution of rows to AMPs but not to use it to order rows within combined partitions on the AMPs. This would allow single-AMP access improving tactical queries against a CP table. Also, this would allow for local-based joins on the PI columns. However, merge joins where the rows are ordered by the hash of the PI columns would not be applicable and other local join methods would need to be modified or implemented.
While there are some use cases that might benefit when rows are distributed by a hash value (instead of randomly or locally) and either ordered by the hash value within a combined partition or not (in the case the column partitions are wide), they also require further implementation effort. As the feature matures, enhancement opportunities will be explored.
Note: all join methods are supported with a CP table. However for some cases, selected rows from the CP table may need to be distributed/spooled/sorted prior to a join step (such as a merge join). Since only the needed columns are scanned, a scan of the CP table can be much more efficient than scanning a non-CP table where entire rows must be read.
If a PI or partitioned PI (PPI) is needed for some queries (tactical queries, primary index joins, etc.), a CP table can have a join index on it where the join index does have a PI, PPI, or MLPPI (but not column partitioning). Alternatively, a PI, PPI, or MLPPI table could have a join index on it where the join index (possibly sparse) has column partitioning (but not a primary index) plus optionally one or more levels of row partitioning. Either of these would allow the benefits of both PI/PPI/MLPPI and column partitioning, albeit with the extra space usage and maintenance of the join index. The optimizer would pick the table or the join index depending on which one was better suited for the query.
Hi paul..
I have one table with 10 millions rows for example
create table table 1
(column1 Interger
column2 Interger
)Primary Index(column2);
Now I am trying to create a table 2 and
create table table2
(SELECT 1,column2 from Table 1)WITH DATA;
So will my table2 have no issues and contain the same rows as in table1 or Do need I need to define the primary Index on coulmn_2 to fix the skewness.
Please do let me know
1. Is my table going to be skewed?
Probably (after you fix the syntax errors) but depends on your system's setting for PrimaryIndexDefault.
2. So will my table2 have no issues and contain the same rows as in table1 or do need I need to define the primary index on column_2 to fix the skewness?
You will probably have issues. But table2 will contain the same number of rows as table1 and the same values for column_2 in table2 as for column2 in table2. You need to define a primary index on column_2 or define (or default to) NO PRIMARY INDEX to avoid skew.
In general, depending on the default PI (or NoPI) chosen for a table being created is not a good idea. This is especially problematic if you do not know the rules for how the system chooses the default, know the system settings, etc. plus know that the chosen default is what you actually want for the table, its data, its queries, and its data maintenance. Since it is unlikely you will know all the rules (I have trouble remembering them), it is usually better to specify the primary index (or NoPI) that you want rather than depend on the default. If you do create a table without specifying the primary index (or NoPI), the easiest thing way to find out what was chosen is to do a SHOW TABLE on the table (however, you might want to do this before copying the data).
Let's look at your example after making a few syntax corrections (and assumptions).
CREATE TABLE table1 AS (column1 INT, column2 INT) PRIMARY INDEX (column2);
Now, insert 10 millions rows into table1. I am assuming that these inserted rows are evenly distributed to AMPs based on the hash bucket determined from the hash value for each value of column2. However, if there is skew in the values for column2 (for instance, only a few distinct values), table1 would be skewed.
Then create table2.
CREATE TABLE table2 (column_1, column_2) AS (SELECT 1, column2 FROM table1) WITH DATA;
Since you are creating table2 using a SELECT statement (and not directly from table1), table2 does not get the primary index definition from table1. Instead, it gets a default chosen by the system unrelated to the indexes defined for table1.
If the system chooses to use column_1 as the primary index (based on your system setting for PrimaryIndexDefault), table2 is skewed to one AMP. For some tables (for instance, a small table), maybe that is what you want in order to be able have single-AMP access to the data (if this is what you wanted, there are no issues). But unless you have a huge system where 10 million rows is considered small, you probably would not want that choice.
On my system, the default chosen is NO PRIMARY INDEX because the DBS Control setting for PrimaryIndexDefault is N. In this case (assuming table1 is not skewed), table2 is not skewed (since data is locally copied on each AMP from table1 to table2). However, even though table2 is not skewed, you might have wanted table2 to have a primary index instead of no primary index.
Other factors (but not a complete list) that can affect the default chosen are whether there are PRIMARY KEY or UNIQUE constraints and whether PARTITION BY is specified.
So if you want the primary index to be on column_2, you should do the following.
CREATE TABLE table2 (column_1, column_2) AS (SELECT 1, column2 FROM table1) WITH DATA AND STATISTICS PRIMARY INDEX (column_2);
In this case, whether table2 is skewed or not would depend on whether table1 was skewed or not on the values of column2. I added the AND STATISTICS option because most likely you would want table1's statistics copied over to table2 along with the data (assuming you had collected some statistics on table1).
The only time it is probably safe to not specify the primary index is when you simply want an exact copy of the table (assuming the source table doesn't already have issues).
CREATE TABLE table2 AS table1 WITH DATA AND STATISTICS;
I would like to understand below Note as per your article.
Can two CP tables be joined as Left outer join or Inner Join as regular PI table can?
Is it like Join Method is different from Join types?
Note: all join methods are supported with a CP table. However for some cases, selected rows from the CP table may need to be distributed/spooled/sorted prior to a join step (such as a merge join). Since only the needed columns are scanned, a scan of the CP table can be much more efficient than scanning a non-CP table where entire rows must be read.
Good question. This can benefit from some clarification.
I was using join method to mean the method used in a join step (for example, merge join, nested join, sliding-window join, hash join, product join, etc.). These are used to implement the joins specified in a request (such as left outer join, inner join, etc. -- call these join types).
Two CP tables can be joined using the same join types as a PI table, however, the plan and join method (step) may be different. In some cases, the join method may be the same (e.g., merge join) but there may be one or two additional retrieve steps before the join step (and the join step may be for the spools from the retrieves rather than directly on the CP tables). A CP table can also be joined to PI or NoPI table or vice versa in a request (you just may get different plans for different combinations and demographics).
Hope to see you at Partners Conference next week!
Teradata Database 15.10 added support for PRIMARY INDEX (PI) and a PRIMARY AMP INDEX (PA) for columnar tables in addition to NO PRIMARY INDEX (NoPI).

""[T]he freedom … of the press" specially protects the press as an industry, which is to say newspapers, television stations, and the like — so have argued some judges and scholars, such as the Citizens United v. FEC dissenters and Justices Stewart, Powell, and Douglas. This argument is made in many contexts: election-related speech, libel law, the journalist's privilege, access to government property, and more.
Some lower courts have indeed concluded that some First Amendment constitutional protections apply only to the institutional press, and not to book authors, political advertisers, writers of letters to the editor, professors who post material on their websites, or people who are interviewed by newspaper reporters.
Sometimes, this argument is used to support weaker protection for non-institutional-press speakers than is already given to institutional-press speakers. At other times, it is used to support greater protection for institutional-press speakers than they already get. The argument in the latter set of cases is that the greater protection can be limited to institutional-press speakers, and so will undermine rival government interests less than if the greater protection were extended to all speakers."

COLLINS � Nevada catcher Chase Stout found himself routinely scooting toward the outer half of home plate Monday.
COLLINS � Nevada catcher Chase Stout found himself routinely scooting toward the outer half of home plate Monday.
�The outside corner was treating me very well,� starting pitcher Ty Borton said.
Just how well?
Borton struck out 11, took a no-hitter into the fifth inning and didn�t allow an earned run in six innings of work.
The Cubs went on to beat Collins-Maxwell-Baxter 7-3.
�He�s a clutch pitcher,� Stout said. �He gets it in there when he needs it. If he gets behind in a count, he battles back.�
Borton was behind schedule when baseball season started because he was part of Nevada�s overlapping run to the Class 1A championship game of the state soccer tournament.
But his playoff mohawk and transition lag have both faded.
�I think everyone is back up to speed,� Borton said.
Of the first nine outs Borton got Monday, seven were strikeouts.
�I really don�t pay much attention to stats, I just go out and pitch,� said Borton, who throws a fastball and a curve ball. �I just went out there, threw strikes and kept trust in my defense.�
CMB shortstop Kaleb Durham broke the no-hitter with a one-out fifth inning double to deep left field.
Durham, the Raiders� leadoff hitter, had struck out in his previous two at-bats.
�I was just looking for a good pitch,� Durham said. �I was hoping for a homer.�
It fell just short of the fence.
After stealing third base, Durham was out at home on a 1-3-2 double play.
Darrien Sadler had the other hit for the Raiders, a two-run single in the sixth.
The Cubs broke the game open with three-run innings in the fifth and sixth.
After Nevada took the lead in the fifth with a one-out Zach Anderson RBI single up the middle, Stout stroked a two-out two-run single.
�I knew we had to extend the lead,� Stout said. �That helped us relax out there a little more.�
The Cubs (10-5) took advantage of two errors by the Raiders (0-14) to add three more runs in the sixth.
And Borton kept hitting the outside corner. So did Anderson, who relieved him for a perfect seventh.
�We�re playing well, hitting well, pitching well, fielding well � we�ve just got to keep it going,� Borton said.

The Storage Networking Industry Association is coming down under.
The association, a non-profit organisation with membership from most major players in the storage networking industry, is to set up an Australian and New Zealand branch later this year.
IDC Australia storage analyst Graham Penn says there will be benefits for end users, though SNIA is principally a vendor organisation.
"What it offers is training and education; most of the benefits for users will be around SNIA events."
There will be three categories of membership: voting, costing $10,000 and involving rights to put links on the ANZ SNIA website; general, at $2500; and individual, at $150.
Ground work towards setting up an Australasian branch has been going on for a year and the US parent body gave its consent for a branch in this part of the world in July.
As well as education, SNIA is involved in developing IEEE standards relating to storage networking.

Hi I'm Travis
I grew up in Arizona. I love to be active in sports. I find serving other's rewarding. I'm a Mormon.
About Me
I'm from Gilbert Arizona and despite the warm weather I enjoy playing sports outside. I am 21 years old. I grew up with a veritiy of friends and influences. My parents seperated when I was only 3 years old and when I was about six my Dad re-married. With these events came some trials and challenges which brings me to the fact that I couldn't have made it as well as I have without faith in Jesus Christ.
Why I am a Mormon
What is my purpose in life? I honestly can say its not quite as simple to be a Mormon as it is to follow the worlds acceptible standards, but I can also say I know our absolute purpose and potential in this life. When we decide to follow Jesus Christ we choose to do the things He would do. We can find understanding of our purpose as we follow the commandments given to us by our Heavenly Father. These commandments can be found in the scriptures. The scriptures were written as the spirit of God moved upon prophets long ago. Many things change over time without prophets and apostles who are called of God, this is why a modern day Prophet has been called of God, our Loving Heavenly Father, to bring forth lost understanding of our purpose here. When you open your heart and desire to follow Christ you can know for yourself what God expects of you.
How I live my faith
When I was younger I participated in many service projects which helped me build character and a appreciation for what I had in my everyday life. Most of these activities were organized through my church leaders. I know that my leaders had a desire to serve God and one way they were called to serve Him was by helping the youth have important experiences that would help each one grow closer to the Lord, Jesus Christ. In many ways the Mormon church has prepared me and many others to be successful and responsible throughout our journey in life.

All the World's a Stage
A novel by Bronwen Welsh
Copyright 2016
Chapter 27 A surprise engagement
On the Monday morning we had the usual cast meeting where David went over a few minor changes in the production – 'tweaks' as he called them. At the conclusion he asked us all to sit in the front stalls as the CEO Duncan Morgan wanted to speak to us.
A moment later the boss strode onto the stage and looked down at us. "This feels a bit strange," he said. "You should be up here on the stage and I should be down there looking up at you."
He received the anticipated laugh and went on "For the past few months, the Executive Department has been secretly working on a project. We didn't want to reveal it in case it didn't come off and you'd all be disappointed, but now I can tell you that we have organised an overseas tour by the Imperial Shakespeare Company, starting next February."
There was a buzz of excitement at this revelation.
"We'll be visiting three continents – first Singapore in Asia, then Perth, Melbourne and Sydney in Australia; Auckland and Christchurch in New Zealand, and then across to America, first Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle, then Washington D.C., and ending up in New York. We will be presenting two of our recent productions, 'Romeo and Juliet' and 'Twelfth Night', since we thought a tragedy and a comedy would be a good mix.
"We would like to take as many of the original cast members as possible, although we realise that for various reasons some people may not be able to make the trip. Another thing is that while it's exciting, it will also be very hard work. We will be going through many time zones, so there will be a lot of jet-lag, and presenting the plays at so many different venues, each one different in performance space, will require a lot of re-staging and only a limited amount of rehearsal time to get used to it.
"At the first stop in Singapore, we will be performing in the Kallang Theatre which used to be a cinema and seats about 1700 people. I should mention that in New York we won't be on Broadway since those theatres are tied up years in advance with long-running shows, but we won't be too far 'off Broadway'.
"We will be speaking to all the original cast members to see if they are interested in going, and we hope that most if not all of the principal players will be able to make the trip. If not, we will have time to re-cast the vacancies and give them time to learn the parts and rehearse. Are there any questions at this stage?"
Thinking of my proposed surgery I asked "When will we arrive back in England?"
"About mid-April," said Malcolm. "'Oh to be in England now that April's there', you know? Well of course you do."
Indeed I doubt if there was anyone sitting the the stalls who was not familiar with Robert Browning's famous poem 'Home Thoughts from Abroad.'
As we left the auditorium I said to Cassie "Will you be going?"
"Try and stop me!" she exclaimed. "What an exciting challenge it will be, but I wonder about our older cast members. It will be very tiring."
That evening I rang Mum to tell her about the overseas trip.
"If you're going to Melbourne perhaps you can meet up with Aunt Peggy," she said.
"That would be great," I replied. "I'm not sure how far her place is from Melbourne, Yackandandah wasn't it? It might be hours away."
"I get the impression from Peggy that Australians are used to driving long distances," said Mum. "Why don't you write to her as soon as you know when you'll be there? I'm sure she wouldn't miss an opportunity to see you acting again."
"That's a good idea Mum. I'll give her my email address too. That would help her send a quick reply if she's got a computer."
While waiting in the wings with Richard before the next performance I said to him "Isn't it exciting about the overseas tour? I'm so looking forward to it."
"I've got a slight problem with it," he replied. "My agent's been in touch and he suggests I audition for a film that's going to be made next year, but shooting is due to start in March."
"Oh!" I said, not bothering to hide my disappointment.
"Don't get me wrong, I'd really love to do the tour as well, but they're likely to clash so I've got to decide which one to pick. The film will pay a lot more, but then money isn't everything."
"Except it allows you to be miserable in comfort," I said with a smile, intending my remark as a joke.
Richard looked at me seriously. "Are you miserable Harriet? It just seems that you aren't as happy as you were previously."
I flushed. Was it that obvious? Meanwhile Richard looked like he was making up his mind to say something.
"You know what a hotbed of gossip theatres are and I've never been one to play that game, it's just that, well, I heard a story that someone you were keen on has married somebody else recently."
Now I really did flush beetroot. Did nothing stay a secret here? I took a deep breath.
"Yes it is true, but I don't blame Reggie one bit. Unfortunately I'm sworn to secrecy, so I can't go into details. If you knew the facts, you wouldn't blame him either."
"I'm sorry," said Richard, and he took my hand and squeezed it. It was somehow comforting. "I shouldn't have mentioned it, please forgive me."
"There's nothing to forgive, really. Sometimes life doesn't work out quite the way you expect or want."
"Will it mean a lot to you if I do the tour?" said Richard softly.
"Of course it will. We act so well together that it feels very special and I think the audiences feel that way too. But of course you must do what feels right for you. We all want to have a successful career and sometimes that means being a bit, well 'selfish' isn't really the word, maybe 'focussed' is a better one?
Richard laughed. "Actually I think you're right, doing the tour might be the best move for my career. You never know, many people have told me that signing up for films can be a risky business. Sometimes they fall through or get delayed, so I might even be able to do the tour and the film, assuming it goes ahead and I get the part. I'll talk to my agent and tell him what I've decided."
"I hope I haven't talked you into this Richard; if it all goes pear-shaped I don't want you blaming me."
"There's no chance of that," he replied. "It's entirely my own decision. In this life you win some and lose some." He stopped abruptly. "I'm so sorry, that was an incredibly tactless thing to say."
I managed a laugh. "You must think I'm awfully sensitive," I said. It was only then that I realised that we were still holding hands, and I wondered how many people had seen us standing there in our own little world.
I didn't know where or for how long Reggie and Sophie had gone on their honeymoon, indeed I had no wish to know. However since the academic year was in full swing, I assumed that Reggie would be back at university by now.
I decided I should send him an email using Hotmail, letting him know I was alright, but decided that I should not mention the overseas tour just in case he spoke about it by accident and Sophie would guess where he found out. There was bound to be a press release before long, and no doubt it would appear in the newspapers.
It was strange, but I felt a little awkward in writing to him, as though I really shouldn't be doing it. Despite the way in which he had been 'persuaded' to marry Sophie, the fact remained that he was now a married man, and somehow writing secretly to him just felt plain wrong, like we were having an affair. However, there was the point of view that a large part of the reason he had married her was to protect me, so not to be in contact with him now would make it seem as though I didn't appreciate all he had done for me and had abandoned him. I suddenly felt very confused. Another problem, how should I end the message? To write anything less than 'Love, Harriet' was unthinkable. In the end, I wrote as follows:
'Dear Reggie,
I'm writing to tell you that I am alright. The play continues to have great audiences, often full houses, so that is taking up most of my time.
I hope you are going well. I expect that you are now back at university and I hope everything is going well there.
I drove to Bridchester to see Mum and Emma last week and it was good to catch up with all that is happening there. Emma has asked me to be godmother to my niece Elizabeth. She is growing very quickly and weighs over nine pounds now. They are all keeping well.
I'll write again soon.
Love, Harriet'
I read it through several times. It seemed stilted, like a message written to someone I didn't know very well, certainly not to a lover. I didn't know what else to write, so in the end I sent it as it was.
A reply came the following day. It almost seemed as if Reggie was waiting to hear from me.
'Dear Harriet,
It was so good to hear from you. I'm sorry we didn't get more time to talk at the reception. Yes, I'm back at university now and so is Sophie. The course is going well, and my tutors seem pleased with my progress. I now have a place in the University Football Team and will play my first game with them next week. I will let you know how it goes.
Do you know what you will be doing when the season of 'Romeo and Juliet' comes to an end? Do you have another play lined up? I guess that being an actress means constantly having job interviews which is hard, but I couldn't imagine you doing anything else.
Love, Reggie'
I read it over several times. From the way it was written it seemed as if Reggie was having trouble writing too. I supposed we would just have to get used to it.
On Friday when Richard and I were waiting in the wings to go on-stage, he said "Are you doing anything on Sunday?"
"Probably washing my hair," I replied with a smile. "Why?"
"I was just wondering if you'd like to go for a drive in the country and have lunch somewhere? I know that's a bit of a cheek since you've got a car and I don't, but I'd be happy to pay for the lunch and the petrol."
Richard's offer was in fact very welcome. I knew that Dale was going to London for the weekend to see Frank, and I didn't fancy hanging around the flat on my own. One thing that did surprise me about Richard's suggestion was that I understood he had a girlfriend. I wondered if they'd had a row?
Sunday dawned bright but cold with some frost on the ground, after all it was now late November. I decided on my tartan skirt with black opaque tights, and a woollen jumper over my camisole. I also put on some boots in case we decided to go for a walk wherever we ended up, and I took a 'Tam o' Shanter' to keep my head warm.
I drove around to Richard's flat and knocked on the door. When he opened it he was well wrapped up against the cold too. He invited me in while he put on his shoes. As women do, I glanced around the room. It was a bit untidy and there didn't seem to be any sign of a female presence, but it seemed tactless to enquire about his present circumstances.
We drove north along the Birmingham Road to Henley-in-Arden, a small town with some interesting old buildings and to give ourselves an appetite for lunch we parked the car and walked to the site of the Beaudesert Castle, although apart from some earthworks and a single stone there is nothing else to see. As we walked we chatted.
"We might be wondering why I asked if you were free today," said Richard. "The fact is, I've split up with my girlfriend and didn't fancy hanging around the flat on my own."
I laughed. "Well I was on my own for the weekend too, so your invitation was most welcome," I said. "Is it a serious split-up or do you think you'll get together again?"
Richard smile ruefully "I rather think it's permanent."
"I've come to the conclusion that the sort of life an actor leads makes it hard to have a permanent relationship," I said. "Of course you could say the solution is to start a relationship with another actor, but when you see how many divorces take place in Hollywood, that doesn't seem to work either."
Richard laughed. "It is a bit of a gypsy lifestyle. We have to go where the work is. Before I landed 'Romeo' I was working in Edinburgh."
"What about your family?" I said.
"My parents, two sisters and a brother all live in Swansea. They have 'sensible' jobs; I'm the only actor in the family."
His mention of Swansea made me think of Aunt Jane and inevitably from there my mind went to thoughts of Reggie.
"What is it?" he asked. "You suddenly look very sad. Did I say something that upset you?"
"It's nothing," I replied. "My ex-boyfriend Reggie has an aunt who lives in Swansea and I just thought about him. Why don't we head back to Henley and find somewhere to eat?"
We ended up at 'The Bluebell' and had a very nice lunch. I had a Caesar Salad and Richard had roast beef and Yorkshire pudding, which surprised me as he was thin as a reed. Some people just don't have to watch their diet, whereas others like me can put on pounds by just looking at Sticky Toffee Pudding, which is why I shouldn't really have had one but I did anyway. Comfort food?
We had plenty of time, so finished off with coffee and didn't leave until the 3.30pm closing time. When we arrived back at Richard's flat he invited me in for coffee and I accepted. As I left he kissed me on the cheek and thanked me for a really nice day.
"I must thank you too," I replied. "Let's do it again sometime."
There was a postscript to Sunday. Monday morning my mobile phone began to ring.
"Harriet? Harriet Stow?" said a female voice that sounded very angry.
"Who is this?" I asked cautiously.
"My name's Stella," she replied. "And you're the bitch who stole my boyfriend."
"Just a minute, I haven't stolen anyone's boyfriend."
"Oh yes? Well the facts say otherwise. Just try and deny that you went out with him on Sunday."
It was a funny thing but when I arrived at Richard's flat I did have a feeling of being watched, but thought I was imagining it. It's amazing how many people can sense that. I wonder if it's inherited from the time when stone-age man had to watch out for sabre-toothed tigers and the like?
"Richard and I work together and we are just friends," I replied.
"Friends you call it? I've seen you two on the stage, sister, and you aren't pretending."
"So you've seen Romeo and Juliet'?"
"Sure. Richard got me a ticket. A total waste of two hours of my life. I couldn't understand hardly anything you actors were saying."
"Well, it is Elizabethan English," I replied mildly, trying to humour her.
"But I didn't need to understand what you were saying to know what was going on between you two."
"But it's called 'acting'. It's meant to look real but it isn't really. When I stab myself at the end of the play, you know that's not real."
"I'm not stupid. I know that's not real, but those love scenes are and don't pretend otherwise. Anyway it's not just that, When Richard was at home in the flat it was 'Harriet this' and 'Harriet that'. He couldn't stop talking about you."
"Well I'm sorry if you've been upset, but I assure you Richard and I are not in love; we're actors and we are playing the parts of two people in love – there is a difference."
"I can see I'm wasting my time here," Stella replied. "Anyway, you watch out, and tell Richard to watch out too." With that she put the phone down.
To be continued
I would like to acknowledge the assistance of Louise Anne in proofreading the text and giving me a great deal of useful advice about modern-day Britain to incorporate in the story, also Julia Phillips for picking up my punctuation errors and any typos Louise or I missed. I'm very grateful to them both.

Dear Me!
There are some extremely jealous women about Harriet this one seems a bit of a psycho - remember Hell Hath on Fury etc. etc.
But notwithstanding that it's good for Harriet to go out with someone else.
Yet another great episode of young Harriet's life - thanks for your hard work.
Oh dear, Oliver
Another twist to the plot.
And another ...
... weighs in on the dark side.
Hmmm - maybe an international tour is just what is required to get away.
Nice one, Bron.
I'm guessing ...
... our Harriet will indeed go on the international tour. I'm also guessing there'll be extended action in Australia with Bronwen on familiar territory. After all there are very good surgeons over there with appropriate skill sets.
Harriet leads an 'interesting' life. Now she has 2 potentially jealous women to contend with.
thanks, Bronwen
Stella will slash Harriet's face with a dull straight razor!!!!!!11
The use of a straight razor is a nod to Harriet's career as a Shakespearian actress, of course.
The Green-Eyed Monster
It's not surprising in a way. A girl sees her boyfriend on stage night after night with another beautiful girl and her imagination takes over. When we know how many Hollywood romances have started or been broken between two actors in a movie it's hard to blame her. Just think Brangelina, which reputedly started in Mr. and Mrs. Smith.
I think we've already seen a heavy hint that Harriet is going to do the tour in Gene's Story!
sounds like Stella is going to be a problem
poor Harriet ...
What if ...
... what if Richard is seriously chasing Harriet's tail and all that?
And ditched Stella for hopes of grazing on greener pastures on the other side of the hill?
The mind boggles!!!!
Claws are out
Richard seems very keen on Harriet and his ex is going to pose problems! I sense another twist coming Bronwen
Lovely to see the pretty village of Yackandandah get a mention again Bron :)
Touring to Melbourne Aus? I
Brilant !
Touring to Melbourne Aus? I have a friend who lives a train ride away, I'll have to let her know.
No worry from the mob, but maybe this Stella could prove trouble. How easy is it to fall in love with someone you play love with.
Poor Richard!
Another pile of crap
What a chance of a life time being able to be in an acting company which will perform in different countries. Of course it will be tiring work, but the sites along the way and in the country will be worth it.
It was nice of Richard to take Harriet out on Sunday, getting them both out of their flats. But why oh why did the bat from hell have to pop it ugly head out of the attic? They had such a nice time.
Obviously she is not a Shakespeare fan if she considers sitting through a performance of Romeo and Julie a waste of time. By her tone with Harriet, or her delusion, she lacks a modicum of culture for the arts. Harriet needs to phone Richard yesterday, last week, two years ago and warn him about batzilla. Both may need to wear armor or something equivalent. Or hire bodyguards. Some people...
Others have feelings too.

The Illinois Department of Public Health announced Friday the launch of a new Ebola hotline and plans to create an Ebola task force consisting of health care and emergency response departments.
Department Director Dr. LaMar Hasbrouck also said that by next week, a state lab should be capable of handling Ebola testing.
"We don't deal with Ebola every day, so we have a steep learning curve," Hasbrouck said.
He emphasized that there are no confirmed or suspected cases of Ebola in Illinois and urged residents with questions and concerns to call the hotline at 800-889-3931 or go to ebola.illinois.gov.
Dr. Michael Wahl of the Metropolitan Chicago Healthcare Council said the hotline got 200 to 250 calls in 24 hours.
"Most of them are very reasonable questions," Wahl said. "What are the symptoms? What are the risks of getting Ebola? I wouldn't say there is a lot of panic, just a lot of curiosity."
Hasbrouck was joined at Friday's media briefing by officials from local health departments and hospitals and emergency responders.
Gov. Pat Quinn directed the department to assemble an Ebola advisory task force, which is expected to be formally announced next week.
In the meantime, authorities are continuing to focus on international travel through O'Hare International Airport, said Jonathon Monken, director of the Illinois Emergency Management Agency.
"Our primary area of concern here is international travel that fits the possible exposure profile that's most likely coming in through one of the airports in Illinois that has international connectivity," Monken said.
O'Hare was one of five U.S. airports the CDC designated for Ebola screenings because they host more than 94 percent of travelers from countries affected by the outbreak: Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone. O'Hare sees about 20 to 25 travelers from these countries each day, Hasbrouck said.
Earlier in the day, U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk called for more precautions at O'Hare after touring the airport's Ebola screening center.
The Illinois Republican met with officials from the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Department of Health and Human Services and Customs and Border Protection to evaluate airport screening procedures.
While Kirk said he was impressed with provisions such as infrared thermometers, he urged government officials to stop direct flights to the United States from countries with Ebola outbreaks.
"We need to make sure no one from the Ebola countries gets a valid visa to the United States," Kirk said. "I think the only way to protect this airport is to make sure people with Ebola do not get in here."

Message to JU Community - JU Football
July 17, 2015
To members of the Jacksonville University Community:
In November of 2014, I informed the campus of the results of an independent review of irregularities found in the awarding of financial aid with respect to our football program. That review revealed financial aid had been awarded in the form of scholarships to football players in apparent violation of Pioneer Football League (PFL) rules and that those actions created an inherent unfairness to our competitor colleagues in the PFL. At that time, we made the difficult decision to withdraw our football team from consideration for any post-season play and the matter was referred to the PFL enforcement committee.
The Pioneer Football League (PFL) recently concluded its review of Jacksonville University's football program's use of financial aid. The PFL considered and accepted all of the corrective actions taken by the University. The committee has accepted the school's voluntary removal from its 2010 and 2014 championships, acknowledged the University as a "model of character and integrity," and imposed a one-year ban on post-season play for the 2015 season. The conclusion by all parties confirmed, I'm pleased to report, that no NCAA violations occurred.
We feel deeply for our student-athletes and their families as they have done nothing wrong. As an institution, we must do what is right and honorable and take actions that will prevent any future students from paying for the actions of others. To that end, I promised you in November that we were committed to putting new plans, personnel and procedures in place to make sure something like this cannot happen again and we have done that.
Since the investigation took place, and to further ensure that we can protect our students against any future harm of this kind, we have added new professional compliance personnel, redesigned our compliance operations, upgraded compliance training and education programs, and incorporated a broader group of campus staff in ongoing compliance communications to keep all informed and accountable to our student-athletes.
Our football team has been notified of the decision. I ask you to support your fellow colleagues, students and friends as we bring to a close this difficult chapter in the life of this institution. I invite you to come out to all the games this season to show your support for these tremendous young athletes. We look forward to the future as an institution and to the upcoming season.
Thank you for your continued support of Jacksonville University.
Tim Cost

|American Flyer
|Manufacturer ID:
|Road Name:
|American Flyer
|Road Number:
|Year Introduced:
|The main photo shows three variations of the 1952 #930 American Flyer (not "American Flyer Lines") illuminated cabooses with knuckle couplers. All #930 cabooses, except for one of the two 1952 models, are tuscan. The second unique thing about these is that they are 1952 models with knuckle couplers. Photo #2 shows the underside of the 1952 American Flyer cabooses (the bottom one is the same as the foreground in the main photo, and the middle one is the same as the middle one in the main photo). Note the bottom red unit has riveted couplers, which is an example of an early 1952 model. The riveted style knuckle coupler on early 1952 models can also come in tuscan. These were one of only eight cars produced in 1952 with knuckle couplers. The tuscan painted #930 AMERICAN FLYER LINES caboose was produced in from 1953 through 1957 in six variations, which are in addition to the four variations marked "AMERICAN FLYER". The first five variations were produced between 1953 and 1956. The first variation is painted tuscan over a black Type I body, the second variation is painted over a red Type I body, and the third is painted over either a red, gray, or white Type II body. The fourth variation is painted over a Type II black body. The fifth is painted over a Type IIA black body. The sixth and last variation, shown Photo #3, is painted over a black Type III sheet metal snap-in frame in which the lamp is riveted to the chassis. The sticker on the bottom of the base reads: "TO CHANGE LAMP REMOVE / SCREW FROM END OF BODY". This variation was produced in 1957 only and came in a red and white box marked "24608" as that was the new 5-digit catalog issued to the #930 for 1957.
Photo #4 shows a reworked model by Holt. He turned the #930 into an N5b Pennsylvania cabin car. Fitting the I-beam collision posts into the end braces and changing the side windows were the most difficult tasks. End windows were cut first; inner side windows were blocked, and outer side windows were extended upward, and filled at the base. Plastic I-beam collision posts were trimmed and carefully fitted into the tuscan painted end braces. Flat black Testors enamel was brushed onto the roof. The class N5b cabin decals are from Microscale; they are HO-scale, but correct for class N5b. Flexible plastic glazing and flat clear lacquer completed the project. The Pennsy Altoona shops built most of the PRR cabin cars over the years from their own plans. After 900 steel N5 cabooses were built from 1914 onward, this N5b class of 200 (body length 30'7.5") was built in 1941 (#s 477620 - 477819).

Day One - Friday
On Friday Steve and I explored the gully out the back of his grandparents house (most of northern Sydney has these gullies running through it. very rocky, impossible to build on, but very beautiful).
However, one thing that I didn't like, were all these spiders. everywhere. literally! they had very big, sticky webs, and the spiders were quite large.
in the afternoon we went north of Sydney for a bit to the Hawksbury River and had a bit of an explore.
(we also went through Bonnie Doon on both the way up, and the way back from Sydney. Classic movie that is...)

Hi everyone! So, today's post will be about a product everyone has heard of... the Lorac Pro Palette! My beautiful friends surprised me with this palette for my birthday. I remember when I unwrapped the present and saw what it was... my heart skipped beats. It was not what I was expecting at all!
The palette comes with 16 versatile colours. The first row consists of matte colours, whereas the bottom are all shimmery eyeshadows. My first swatch of this palette and my heart melted. I am in love. The eyeshadows are so pigmented, smooth and buttery. Just a slight touch of the product and it would be enough.
The packaging itself is very sleek. It is slim and lightweight so it's very good for travelling. I am definitely bringing this palette with me when I go overseas at the beginning of the year.
If you are looking for a high quality eyeshadow palette, the Lorac Pro is one that you should consider. You would not be disappointed. To be honest, when I talk about this palette to anyone, my inner fangirl comes out. I squeal and do a little dance because the palette is amazing.
Sadly I didn't have time to do swatches of the eyeshadows itself, but if you want swatches then let me know by commenting down below!
I hope you are all having a lovely week!
Much love,

Job-seeking platform for 1mln Arab coders launched
More than 250,000 programmers have applied for the 100,000 open seats of the 'one million Arab coders' programme. The initiative has attracted more than 750,000 applications from the Arab world since its inception in October last year.
Launched by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, the programme seeks to help one million young Arab programmers hone their digital and coding skills.
The applicants will be sorted into eight annual rounds, with four academic courses in each round: Smart applications development (35 per cent of the applications); website programming (33 per cent); data analysis (18 per cent); and smart website design (14 per cent).
To further support the programme, the Dubai Future Foundation (DFF) has signed a partnership agreement with job site Bayt.com. The agreement was signed in the presence of Omar bin Sultan Al Olama, Minister of State for Artificial Intelligence (AI), Member of the DFF's board of trustees and Deputy Managing Director of the foundation, and Rabea Ataya, Founder and CEO of Bayt.com.
"The 'one million Arab coders' is a landmark initiative to empower the Arab youth and help them acquire the skills of the future," said Al Olama. "This embodies the vision of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid in developing the knowledge and skills of young people in the Arab region, keeping them up to speed with the rapidly changing demands of the labour market of the future, where programming is set to be at the core of every sector.
"With this partnership with Bayt.com, the DFF is looking to broaden the horizons of employment for programmers. It will provide an enabling environment for them to imagine and build their own future by mastering next-generation technologies such as artificial intelligence, robotics, cognitive and biological sciences, and programming."
Ataya said: "We are proud to be partnering with the one million Arab coders programme - the first initiative of its kind targeting Arab youth around the world. We are committed to playing our part and offering all the necessary support for their goals and aspirations, and look forward to collaborating with the DFF to empower a generation of knowledgeable, qualified and future- ready Arab youth."
The One Million Arab Coders is one of the initiatives that seek to realise the UAE Centennial 2071 vision to put the UAE ahead of all other nations by supporting sustainable development, increasing the number of patents and supporting science and innovation.
Training for the programme will be free and the top students and tutors will get incentives of over $1 million.
The initiative seeks to equip young Arabs with the tools to build their future, starting with fluency in coding and programming. It will also provide Arabs with employment opportunities, and empower them with the skills needed to contribute to the development of the digital economy.
At the launch, Sheikh Mohammed had said: "Coding is the language of the modern era. Our goal is to teach it to one million young Arabs, in order to prepare them now for the requirements needed to excel in the future.
"Coding will create many job opportunities for young people to compete for remotely; it will pave the way for them to participate in the global economy online - from home."

USAID and DAPP partner with communities to improve health and sanitation
Reported by Peter Banda in Harare
9 June 2016 – Harare, Zimbabwe – With assistance from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID)'s Community Water Supply, Sanitation, Hygiene, and Natural Resources Management (C-WASH) activity, communities in Nyanga District of Zimbabwe will be able to construct facilities to dramatically improve their health and sanitation.
Today at the Ruwangwe District Development Fund Rest Camp, Robert Chawatama, the Provincial Water and Sanitation Sub-Committee Chairperson for Manicaland, officially handed over to the people of Nyanga District $40,000 in materials to construct or rehabilitate 83 boreholes, 45 pumps to extract water, 105 drinking troughs for animals, and 102 latrines.
Chairperson Chawatama also presided over the graduation of 18 community latrine and water pan builders and 16 village pump mechanics, who had been trained by Development Aid from People to People (DAPP) Zimbabwe with funding from USAID. With guidance from the District Development Fund, these builders and mechanics will assist the communities in constructing and repairing their water infrastructure and ensure long-term sustainability.
"USAID is proud to support Nyanga District to improve access to safe, potable water," said USAID Zimbabwe Acting Mission Director Bruce Abrams. "With this newly acquired technical expertise and building materials, these communities are now able to protect themselves against water-borne diseases."
In total, USAID's C-WASH activities will provide safe and clean water to 2,400 households and six schools in the district (Sanhani Primary, Mbiriyadi Primary, Chapataronga Primary, Kazozo Primary, Chimusasa Primary, and Fombe Secondary Schools).
The communities of Nyanga North have long grappled with access to safe and clean water due to frequent breakdowns of boreholes. Some families travel for 10 kilometers to access safe water while others sleep queuing for water at the boreholes. Many boreholes in the district are being chained and locked as communities try to safeguard limited water resources. Others have introduced strict water rationing with households only allowed to collect two 20 liter buckets per day regardless of the household size.
C-WASH is a two-year, $1.5 million activity launched in 2015 and funded by USAID. It seeks to address the water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) and natural resource management challenges in targeted rural areas of Zimbabwe. DAPP Zimbabwe and Zim-AHEAD jointly implement C-WASH, which targets four districts in Zimbabwe: Chimanimani, Mutasa, Chipinge, and Nyanga. In total, the activity will provide 8,000 households and 20 schools with sustainable access to clean and safe drinking water sources and 937 households and 20 schools with sustainable access to improved sanitation facilities.
For more than 30 years, the American people, through USAID, have invested over $2.6 billion in Zimbabwe. Current projects include initiatives to increase food security, support economic resilience, improve health systems and services, and promote a more democratic system of governance.
Project Management Zimbabwe (PMZ – Project Management Institute of Zimbabwe) is Zimbabwe's largest Association of Project Managers, with a membership base of over 1000. The institute has a mandate of policing the elevation of project management standards nationally through mentorship and membership services programmes.

Beyonce previews her "Standing In The Sun" song in her new H&M ad. Watch the commercial inside and see A$AP Rocky give his philosophy about life and things he doesn't understand in the May issue of GQ.
In her latest ad campaign for H&M, Beyonce treats her fans to a preview of her song "Standing In The Sun" written by Sia and Greg Kurstin.
While starring as "Mrs. Carter" in the Jonas Akerlund-directed video, Bey models several bikinis as her banging bronzed bod get kissed by the sunlight. Grab your fedoras and bikinis because it's about to get fabulously tropical.
Watch the new commerical here:
Beyonce posed with Salma Hayek (who partnered with her and Gucci for the "Chime For Change" Global Initiative) backstage at her Paris concert last night.
And on magazine racks…..
Controversial rapper A$AP Rocky, who's currently trekking it with Rihanna on her Diamonds World Tour, modeled a few choice pieces for summer 2013 in the May issue of GQ. The cocky fashion divo rapper, who commonly describes himself as "pretty", told the mag, "I wanted to model when I was younger. I was always into clothes and shit."
He also gave an arrogant shout-out to menswear blogs who post pictures of him. "I'm the man on those things. I don't really look at them. Well, I guess I do, but only when I'm looking at myself. I inspire me."
We wonder if he was offended that the stylist for the shoot paired him with a br
own skinned girl wearing pinkish red lipstick. You know how A$AP feels about the brown girls and those color lipsticks.
Also, he gave a charming interview to GQ where he said anytime he doesn't understand something in life, his philosophy is to just say "F*ck It." Let's all follow him on Twitter and Instagram so we can stay inspired. But all jokes aside, we're loving A$AP's music. Dude is talented.

The huge brush gives the lashes more lenght, altough it'll make your lashes stick together if you use too much.
The thing I really hate about this mascara is that it's not only waterproof. It's WATERPROOF.
It's almost impossible to remove it! I even bought eye make up remover for waterproof make - it doesn't work either! After 3 days you can still see mascara-leftovers on your lashes.
It's a pity that it's so hard to remove - otherwise it would be a great mascara!
Next time I'm gonna buy the normal (not waterproof) version. If that one is easier to remove, it would be like the perfect mascara!

We've been wanting to open up a blog in a long time, but really we never have time. Yesterday was the only time where we can relax and come up with the name of our blog. We have no idea what to name it, but then we realized that I love Peas and Ebubu loves books; We agreed to combine those two things.
The main reason we open up this blog is that we want to share our hobbies and what we like, rather than holding our dream and hobbies to ourselves, we want to show it to the world and hoping that some of our hobbies help the others. Helping others is our main goal.
This blog may consist our diy, daily life, music, books, and more stuff that we don't know for sure.
- Tasha (Peas)
