Woke up to a timid snow fall a few days ago.
Big smiles.
It continued to snow throughout the day but it got too wet for it to stick around. I didn't mind too much as I knew more snow was on its way. And indeed, today, we have a proper snow day!
And boy it's cold (the arctic gear is coming in handy).
We're slowly getting to grips with life here, settling back into our lives.
This wintery spell is giving me a chance to catch up with a few Christmas-related stories (keep an eye out for these over the next few days) and the opportunity, for now, to say how much I'm looking forward to 2013.
We already have so much going on already – eight gigs and three plays booked! And of course, many more adventures.
For the year, I have kept my wishes to the bare minimum – more travel; make the most of all opportunities which present themselves to me; eat great food; read more books and have fun.
I am also toying with the idea of getting back in touch with a few people.
On the food front, we have discovered a great website and have already cooked two recipes from it – this really tasty soba noodle with aubergine and mango dish and this winter pasta recipe. Yummy.
On Monday night, we had this roasted red pepper, smokey paprika and tomato soup. Well tasty.
So far, so good.

When Texas adopted the so-called "Concealed Handgun Law" in 1995, several restricted areas were created where it would be unlawful for a person with a Concealed Handgun License, now known as a License to Carry a Handgun, ("Licensee") to carry their self-defense handgun. Over the following twenty-one years, Licensees have proven themselves to be the most law-abiding of Texans. Their track record is amazing and it is discussed in detail below.
I suspect not one person in fifty, perhaps one person in a thousand, has read the entire American Declaration of Independence. We quote a few lines from the first two paragraphs, and perhaps from the closing paragraph as well. Yet we never read the single document that gives a broad and ominous view of what forced Americans to take such a drastic, deadly, brave and heroic step. The vast majority of Americans, if they know anything about the American Revolution, would say that our gripe was "taxation without representation," but King George's tyranny was much broader than just taxes. I'm not busting anyone chops for that, it's just not something we think about much.
Continuing to use failed tactics is not a recipe for success.
Texas law changed on January 1, 2016 such that people with a Texas License to Carry a Handgun (LTC) can now carry their handguns openly, so long as they are in a belt or shoulder holster. There are exceptions that apply to public and private colleges and universities, as well as private property when owners give effective notice pursuant to Tex. Penal Code §30.07.

Picture this-
You are pursuing Masters of Computer Application career wise.
Also picture this-
You are a hobbyist photographer, explorer and a traveller.
You are a co-leader at Adventure Geek organizing trekking, camping and other adventure events around Mumbai.
So which image of you appealed to you right away? I don't think that requires an answer- it is a given.
But guess what?
"What if we told you, there is someone who doesn't choose among these images- but finds the time and drive to be 'everything at once'- just like the song?"
Meet Mayur Agarwal – our Uncommon traveller. He is as they say 'all of the above'.
Team The Uncommon Box is delighted to share the travelogue of this young man, on a special trek to Harishchandragad in Maharashtra.
Harishchandragad – "A trek to remember"
I don't know how to limit my words and write an experience about this beautiful, legendary and a grand trekking place – Harishchandragad.
"After I took up photography and exploring, I decided to go on an adventure spree on every weekend to live my life as if there's no tomorrow."
After trekking to various places at Maharashtra what came on my to-go list was Harishchandragad, may be due to its elevation and because, I had heard that it is a dream trek on the itinerary of every avid trekker who loves the Sahyadris and likes to explore the beauty of nature.
The people there can speak only in Marathi and broken Hindi and since I can speak in Marathi I connected with them in no time. After having sumptuous breakfast of kanda pohe and chai, I started my trek with lots of excitement and expectation from the place.
The Trek:
It was an easy 2 hour trek with exotic mountains surrounding all the sides of the village which immediately reminded me "Wall of the North" from the television series 'Game of Thrones.'
What caught my eyes after half way was the exotic temple of Harischandreshwar housing the idol of Lord Ganesha. To the left of the temple is a well-built lake called "Saptatirtha" and near that is a temple-like construction where there were idols of Lord Vishnu.
"Recently these idols have been shifted in the caves near the temple of Harishchandreshwar."
To the right was the Kedareshwar cave with the famed Shiva which is currently supported on one pillar! 3 pillars have broken.
"It is said and believed that when the 4th one breaks, the Kali Yuga (a period of time in Hindu mythology; the one we are currently living in) will come to an end."
Did I wade through and stand beneath that pillar? Positive! 😀
After taking a short break near the temple, I started trekking for the final destination i.e. Konkan Kada. The first sight of this destination unfolding slowly right in front of my eyes didn't made me believe its existence. It is a semi-circle overhanging cliff offering serous jaw dropping view of vast fields and mountains far away. The sunset to the eastern part was worth watching and the rush of winds made it difficult to even stand.
"The blue sky suddenly was set on fire with the riot of yellow and orange colour."
I had taken a group of trekkers so we happened to pitch our tents and have our dinner of bhakari, vaangi bhaji, thecha, pickle and dal rice beside the campfire.
"Trust me, having dinner at 4000 feet with a blazing campfire, moonlit sky and twinkling stars is much better than any rooftop candle light dinner!"
The sunrise in the morning was equally beautiful. We were reminded of our illustrations in childhood when we used to draw the sun rising through two mountains with small huts and lake.
After watching the sunrise, I had my breakfast and began our descent with a wonderful experience and expectations which marked reality. It was such an incredible trek- with moments that took our breath away. For sure, I shall return when these mountains call me again! Join me if you hear the call too!

Yes... I know its no great feat...Im not curing cancer or anything...but even so...for me, being vulnerable can be really scary sometimes.
Maybe even every time.
What I know for sure is that nothing worth having ever comes by playing it safe. ALL good things come with a little healthy fear...our first kiss, driving a car for the first time, moving to a new city, taking a promotion, asking someone to marry you or saying yes to a proposal...that is some seriously scary stuff. But the reality is that it is impossible to grow or stretch without feeling the fear of the unknown. Its just part of the process.
For me, the good news is, that lately Ive come to realize that when I get that pit in the bottom of my stomach that quietly cripples my every move or even makes me want to run screaming in the other direction ...that feeling is my tell...my inner pilot light saying YES,this is what youve been waiting for! That is the moment that I know Im ON to something...REALLY on to something.
Slowly, Im learning to trust this feeling of fear as an indication that I am going in the right direction and if I just take a deep breath, close my eyes and leap, everything
will be o.k.
Recently, I have been reading a great book by the incredible Marianne Williamson called The Law of Divine Compensation, and she talks about how faith is not just a theological principal, but a mental and emotional muscle...something that we have to build and strengthen over time. When we learn to witness and harness our fear, it can become our greatest asset for self realization. Every time we step into our fear and wear it, however uncomfortable, it can be used as the fuel to push us through to our next level of greatness...and our faith gets just a little bit stronger.
So today...I am here...putting one finger in front of the other... writing to you. Tomorrow? Who knows...
What is it that scares YOU to death? What are you MOST afraid of? What would YOU do...if you found out that the cliff really wasnt that high?
I would almost bet that THAT is where you should begin. But dont take my word for it...try it on for yourself...maybe just maybe, if you can learn to wear your fear as an accessory to your faith, you just might find that it looks incredible on you.
( thats a tweetable) :)
With Love and Light ( and a few butterflies),

A NY Times article refers to a new study from the BMJ involving the prescribing of placebos to patients. Many ethical dilemmas are raised with this practice. The "placebos" referred to in this study weren't placebos at all, they were either vitamins or different classes of pain management medications. Wiki defines Placebo as:
... a substance or procedure a patient accepts as medicine or therapy, but which has no specific therapeutic activity. Any therapeutic effect is thought to be based on the power of suggestion.
The word placebo is Latin for I will please.
Prescribing placebos is only part of the game. There is also the ordering of expensive lab work and diagnostic tests that go hand in hand with the powers of suggestion. I try to be mindful of the tests that I order and explain the risks and benefits of such tests/treatments.
Sure, there have been times when I've contemplated creating my own "S-Pak" in the hopes of creating a magic treatment. But I've found that presenting basic health information, offering rationale and engaging in two-way communication goes a lot further and is much more meaningful than trying to dupe a patient.

Sometimes I often wonder if placebos wouldn't be a good idea. Patients just seem to want a pill instead of taking care of themselves with diet, exercise and good old common sense.

So. This is a lizard that is born without scales so it needs to remove the toenails and fingernails of people and animals to stick onto itself as an alternative. Its claws are borrowed and it gets its nutrition from the blood of the people it steals from (the act of tearing off the nail provides the blood).
Its eggs are small and incredibly hard due to the iron in the blood it drinks and it reproduces at an extremely high rate, making infestations in populated places like apartments common and difficult to contain. The lizards also will not stop looking for people to steal from until they have a full set of scales, meaning a large hive could easily infest an entire city.
They aren't inherently dangerous considering they have no teeth (hence the sipping of blood to survive) and will not steal from the same person twice until the previously taken nails have grown back, but they are bad news nonetheless. The Foundation acts more like exterminators in this situation with only one female in captivity.
I dunno. I was up for roughly 48 hours without sleep and had a bit of a late night brainstorm. This is the result.
Give feedback please.

There is a global rising interest in designers from the Ukrainian capital Kiev. Collections of Ukrainian designers are featured on Vogue Runway, and their work is taking the street style podium around the international fashion weeks by storm. The brightest rising star in this company of promising young designers is probably Anna K, who had her debut at Mercedes-Benz Kiev Fashion Days, three years ago when she was only sixteen years old. Since then, her creations are being sold in top boutiques all over the world and not too long ago Vogue devoted an article to her, her young age and mature designs, as did Business of Fashion. After the presentation of her Spring-Summer 2016 collection in Kiev in the beginning of September, Anna has been flying from one European fashion city to the other, showing her collection in showrooms and modelling the garments herself on the streets. In between, we managed to ask her a few questions about her brand, the future and the rise of the Kiev fashion scene.
Childhood dreams and fairytale inspirations
Becoming a fashion designer was something Anna dreamed of ever since she was a little girl, she tells us, but unlike many others, she did not go through prestigious academies and demanding internships at larger fashion-houses to realize that dream.
Anna: "At the age of fourteen I started my career in fashion as a model, during which time I was highlighted on the covers of many magazines. But by the time I was sixteen, I changed my direction in the industry. I had a lot of creative and original ideas which I wanted to bring into my own collections, so I decided to make my big dream come true and showed my first collection at Mercedes-Benz Kiev Fashion Days."
Anna's collections stand out because they are well-balanced and mature, but playful and wearable at the same time, which is why her work is a hit among street style stars. "I prefer ready-to-wear over haute couture and find my inspiration mostly in fairytales and art. For example, my spring-summer 2016 collection is dedicated to the fairy-tale 'The Princess on the Pea' by Hans Christian Andersen". This influence is reflected in the garments by items studded with pearly peas and flowy princess dresses that move like a cloud of ruffles.
"Sometimes it's better to search for new faces not in fashion agencies, but in real life. It brings some new vibes to fashion."
Aside from the designs, Anna K is making a name by original marketing and social media campaigns, such as the line of t-shirts called 'Fashion circus', with sassy texts like "Front-row only" or "I don't give interviews". For her most recent fashion show in Kiev, she launched the #everygirlisamodel campaign on Instagram, in which she asked girls who love the brand to apply to become a model for Anna K.
"Every girl is definitely a model."
When asked if every girl really is a model, Anna answered: "Yes, of course, every girl is definitely a model." She also frequently models her own clothing: on the streets, on the catwalk and in photo shoots, typically as a natural beauty without an excess of make-up and not over-styled.
Anna: "Sometimes it's better to search for new faces not in fashion agencies, but in real life. It brings some new vibes to fashion. I was happy that a lot of girls took part in my contest, and showed how much they love the Anna K brand. They were all special and had an exceptional appearance."
Kiev as an international fashion city
Despite the difficult times Ukraine as a country is going through, its fashion-industry is booming, which, according to Anna is not just a fleeting trend.
Anna: "I can say that Kiev is on its way to become the fifth fashion capital, I'm sure of it. The Spring-Summer 2016 season in Kiev was the first in the fashion show race [Mercedes-Benz Kiev Fashion Days took place from 3rd to 6th of september, slightly before the big fashion weeks, S.], and collections of Ukrainian designers presented at the event were highlighted on Vogue Runway. Also, a lot of important fashion influencers are interested in Ukrainian designers and they attend Kiev Fashion Days every season. Our designers are becoming stronger every season. We are making quality wearable collections and a lot of international buyers are interested in our work."
The key to success according to Anna: "It's all about loving what you do and not giving up. If you never give up, keep going, and create something new everyday – you will be successful. You should always think carefully about every little part of the process when making a collection." For Anna, this includes not only the design of clothing: "Of course, you should also think about your website, social networks like Instagram – and all the innovative things available! I'm proud of how my brand developed in the past four years. In ten years time, the Anna K brand will be ten times bigger!"

I'm sick of Sherlock Holmes.
Let me clarify.
I fell in love with this character several years ago when I began reading the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle canon. Do you ever have those moments when you discover a character or a book and you think: this was created for me? I had that with Sherlock Holmes.
I loved him even with all his flaws, sexism, and drug addiction. I loved the world he inhabited, I loved Watson, and I was madly in love with Irene Adler. Even the stories where Conan Doyle was clearly phoning it in, I enjoyed. And for a while, I loved the fact that pop culture had rediscovered this character and seemed to create new renditions of him every year.
I am now sick of what I call Sherlock Holmes Syndrome. I am sick of eccentric, often neurotic, always brilliant white men who see things that we mere mortals cannot see. I'm sick of the mass media's apparent belief that mental issues, depression, anxiety, psychopathy and neurodevelopmental disorders are magic. I'm also sick of the blanket use of autism, often incorrectly, as a signifier for Otherness and as a vague superpower.
Look, I still love this character. And I've spent more time thinking about and debating Sherlock Holmes' mental issues than I care to admit. At the end of the day, we don't know if the canon Sherlock Holmes suffered from anything other a drug addiction and "the outbursts of passionate energy when he performed the remarkable feats with which his name is associated [which] were followed by reactions of lethargy during which he would lie about with his violin and his books, hardly moving save from the sofa to the table"[i]. But that has not stopped contemporary interpretations of this damaged yet dazzlingly clever man to diagnose him with everything from Asperger syndrome to encephalitis.
The Sherlock Holmes Syndrome has expanded far beyond the actual character of Sherlock Holmes. Will Graham of NBC's Hannibal is another troubled white man in his thirties who, like BBC's Sherlock, is allegedly autistic, which grants him the ability to mentally recreate crime scenes. His recreations and narration during them are reminiscent of Robert Downey, Jr.'s Sherlock Holmes and his ability to predict exactly what an opponent was about to do. Like the canon Sherlock Holmes, he suffers from what Conan Doyle would've referred to as "black moods." We just call them blackouts or hallucinations and you really should get that checked out by a non-serial killer professional.
Sherlock Holmes Syndrome can even affect characters that are not crime-fighters or detectives. Ichabod Crane from FOX's Sleepy Hollow exhibits several effects of this syndrome: he's eccentric (by our modern standards. He was a normal man in his time period of 18th century), British (not all those who suffer from Sherlock Holmes Syndrome are British but it certainly helps), white, charming for all his oddities, and possesses a convenient glossary of knowledge and minutiae that the secondary characters do not. In the episode "The Lesser Key of Solomon," Ichabod reveals that he just happens to have a photographic memory (rather similar to the mind palace of the Sherlock Holmes of the BBC) that helps him and Abbie track down the evil Hessians. In "John Doe," we discover Ichabod speaks Middle English, which just so happens to be the language the mysterious sickly boy who randomly appears in town speaks. Multiple plotlines are possible simply because of Ichabod's background and knowledge of the supernatural. Like Sherlock Holmes, he has collected minute details through his experiences and research.
I know there are more examples of these types of men in our current pop culture (please let me know of the others that I am overlooking) and I am just so tired of these conveniently genius white men whose brilliance is so dazzling, it's almost inhuman. I'm tired of mental illness as a trope in pop culture and I'm also tired of Othering these men through either neurological/mental differences and/or their often vague sexuality (Ichabod is the only apparently totally straight character mentioned here).
Look, we've questioned Sherlock Holmes' mental capabilities, alleged disorders, and sexuality since he first appeared to us in 1887. Part of what is so interesting about this character is what is not said to us by his trusty Boswell, John Watson. The eccentric genius as queer is nothing new so why do we keep relying on it so much? And why do writers, actors, creators, fans, etc. seem so fixated on this trope that we rehash him out over and over again?
The third series of Sherlock is supposedly coming out next month on the BBC and, while I know I will tune in, I'm rather indifferent to the whole thing. I want to know the reveal of the last series' cliffhanger but other than that, Benedict Cumberbatch's Sherlock has overstayed his welcome with me. Even the Sherlock of CBS's Elementary, which I actively enjoyed as the closet to canonical Sherlock Holmes I've seen in years, has done little to impress me this season.
I keep tuning in these shows, however, which I suppose proves that I have fallen under the Sherlock Holmes Syndrome as well. I just wish I didn't feel so tired after finishing the latest episodes.

Wigan Warriors prop forward Tony Clubb admits that 2018 could be a pivotal season in his career, following a disrupted campaign this year.
Clubb suffered from a serious kidney issue, alongside other off-field problems, which limited his opportunities to make an impact for his team.
But the former London Broncos player says he is eager to demonstrate his value to the club by recapturing top form during the next 12 months.
"I started the year well but, after my kidney problem, I struggled to kick on. But I've sat down with the coaching staff and set individual goals and mine is to start well and have a big year for Wigan," said Clubb, a former England international.
"2017 was a bad year. My dad died last Christmas, I somehow lost a kidney and I had trouble with my spine. It was a tough one but you have to go through things like that and, with my kidney, it was just one of those freaky things which came at a bad time."
Clubb and his team-mates are well advanced with their preparations for the new campaign, and he reports that the going's been tough so far.
"We were told that pre-season this time around would be a tough one, and it has been," he added.
"We had a few days off before the running started, and we're feeling it a bit more. It's been hard but it's been enjoyable at the same time."
Wigan return to Super League action on Friday 2nd February, when they travel to face Salford Red Devils.
Wigan are 1.44 to win the Super League XXIII Grand Final, while Leeds can be backed at 151.00, Hull at 41.00 and Castleford at 4.33.

"I haven't laughed so hard in ages." -- Sunday London Times.
Ten years ago, Cherry Pitz and Joe the Shark partnered up to produce Hotsy Totsy Burlesque and it's been a fabulous ride! We play to often sold-out shows and our dedicated fans gleefully follow the soap opera that is Hotsy Totsy often declaring after each performance, "That was best show you folks have ever done!" As performers and writers we have grown as a troupe and as friends and are happy to move into our 11th year looking forward to the rhinestones, glitter and mayhem the next 10 years shall bring!
Every month you are invited to The Home For Wayward Girls and Fallen Women. The residents of the home need money to keep their hotel open and to buy G-strings and glitter. Sadly, the shows have had their technical difficulties and in the past they have had to combat Daleks, Darth Vader, The Borg, Zombies, Network Censors, Evil from other dimensions and He Who Should Not Be Named! The ladies promise you beautiful, clothing-averse women, lots of laughs, spinning tassels, and flying underpants. So join us for Hotsy Totsy Burlesque at The Home For Wayward Girls and Fallen Women where the motto is "We've fallen, we can't get up, and we like it that way!

Fun With Rhinos
The International Rhino Foundation is involved in conservation programs both in nature and in captivity for the five species of rhino that are endangered. They have some fun activities on their website.
If you like crafts and artwork, you're in luck. Check out the Teacher Resources. You can make your own origami rhino using the outline and directions the Foundation provides. Courtesy of the Edinburgh Zoo, which was involved in the Scottish Beaver Trial, the UK's first formal mammal reintroduction conservation project.
Or you can cut and color your own savannah complete with rhinos, zebras, giraffes and other animals. The savannah was designed by the Givskud Zoo in Denmark that (like so many zoos) is involved in education, conservation and research.
The International Rhino Foundation also has two full color, printable small posters about rhinos available for free download. Both give a well balanced view into the status and work for rhinos today.
In support of family trivia nights and social small talk, the Foundation has posted 25 amazing facts about rhinos on their website. Did you know that a rhino's skin is much softer than it looks, and its sensitivity to sunburns and insect bites and rhinos like rolling in mud to protect it? If you were approaching a rhino, they might not see you due to their poor eyesight, but they would sure smell and hear you. If you startle one, quickly climb a tree because if the rhino charges you it can run up to 30-40 miles per hour. People have been doing this for millions of years – rhinos have existed on earth for over 50 million years, and once roamed throughout North America and Europe as well as Asia and Africa.
If you'd like more information about rhinos, the Foundation also has a free downloadable 44 page guidebook about rhinos and their conservation. But please remember – read it online and avoid using paper if possible – deforestation hurts rhinos as well as other animals.

Social Media and College Students Having Fun Can Equal Unemployment with Employers
I don't know a whole lot about social media but I do know that it can directly effect College Students and their career plans. I work in a career services office and I have a Facebook and Twitter account, but only because the students that work for me thought I should have one so they created these accounts for me. They also taught me how to use the social media and still on occasion I have to ask one of them to help me with a problem or ask how to do something. These tools are second nature to college students which is great, however they have to think twice about what they choose to put on these sites. I have quite a few "friends" on Facebook for someone who doesn't know a lot about it. The reason being is most of my friends are students who I meet while working at the college, which has lead to seeing many many pictures, quotes, and wall posts that I wished I had never seen!
Do employers look at a candidate's Facebook page?
We all know an employer is not supposed to look into a candidates personal life, since that would be illegal, but do they anyway? Well the answer to that is YES! Some employers defiinitely do look you up on Facebook! This information comes directly from the employer's mouth. The image that a person may portray of themselves on facebook has, on occasion, helped employers make the crucial decision to hire or not to hire. Part of my job is to remind college students to think twice about what they post on facebook because of exactly this. What I don't understand is why many college students don't make their sites private, but instead seem to want to invite the whole world to see how much fun they are having while away at school. Hardly ever do I see pictures of an educational nature. I guess that would make them look smart and interested in academia instead of interested in having fun where pictures on facebook put them in a less then tasteful light. I am not saying that doing fun things in college shouldn't be done, or that pictures shouldn't be taken or shared, just be careful with what is made public, especially on Facebook.
Social Media that WILL help you get Employment!
Have you heard of LinkedIn? If not, and you are searching for a job whether in college or not, you need to know about LinkedIn. It is the professional's Facebook. It is a free social network and can be a very important tool when looking to land your dream job. Ok, well maybe not your dream job. In this economy, you may want to keep your options open because the days of landing your dream job right out of college are unfortunately few and far between. That does not mean that you can't land a really good job with A LOT of networking and LinkedIn can help you do just that!
To use this tool you want to create a very detailed professional profile. This will help connect you to people, organizations and schools. The more ways you can be connected to people the better. Join all affiliations associated with the field that you are pursuing. Follow all companies that you want to work for. Join all educational institutions that you attended. Reach out to college professors, administrators, staff, colleagues and alumni. Very often someone has a friend, or friend of a friend, that could help you link to a person in your field of interest or that works for a specific company that you want to work for. I want to emphasize though that going out and personally networking with people face to face by participating in organizations, committee work, going to career fairs and social networking events, or even by volunteering, is still key to getting the job that you want. However, when those opportunities are not happening you can jump on your computer and connect away!
This is pretty true! I applied for and got a job at an ice cream shop last summer and my manager even told me he had been trying to access my facebook - he said it was "blocked." Lol, well of course! I wish they wouldn't do that but either way, I keep my page clean. Great hub!
Thanks for following, Keeley. I saw what you did for a living, and funny thing. (Must be a coincidence). My mom called me up and read an article to me (in a newspaper of all places, lol), about this very thing. Basically, if you're going to right something that could be detrimental to future employment. SAVE it to your computer first, mull it over, and perhaps edit it down to the nicer version.
The tip was, "Never post on the internet what your grandmother might see." lol
I recently saw a clip from Ellen where she posted pictures for the facebook pages of audience members. I was both amazed and shocked by some of the images they had posted for the world to view. Once its on the internet you can't take it back!

4.5 stars. Rating: R, for pervasive profanity, strong sexual content, nudity and drug use
By Derrick Bang
Some heroes are born. Others are made.
Kicking, screaming, scratching and spitting every step of the way.
Ron Woodroof's unexpected saga wasn't nearly as poetic or dramatically mesmerizing as is suggested in Jean-Marc Vallée's new film, Dallas Buyers Club, but there's no doubt that the real-life Woodroof was an unlikely champion for the disenfranchised, much the way Oskar Schindler found his calling during World War II.
Texas born-and-bred Woodroof was a hard-living, harder-drinking electrical contractor when he was blindsided by an HIV diagnosis in 1986, and given sixth months to live. (Vallée's film shifts this life-changing moment to 1985, to tie the unfolding drama to Rock Hudson's announcement, that July, that he had AIDS.)
Not one to blithely accept a death sentence, Woodroof went into the research tank and emerged a year later to found what became known as the Dallas Buyers Club: an underground source of drugs not approved by the FDA for use in the United States ... but, in many cases, legal in other countries and known to be helpful for HIV-positive patients, and those with full-blown AIDS.
Woodroof's story, and the Dallas Buyers Club, were profiled in Bill Minutaglio's compelling article in Dallas Life Magazine, published on Aug. 9, 1992. Woodroof died not quite a month later, on Sept. 12. During the seven years he ran his guerrilla drug network, there's no question he helped prolong the lives of hundreds, if not thousands, of desperately ill people ... just as he prolonged his own life.
Interesting, then, that we've waited two full decades for a film to be made about this feisty, foul-mouthed, oddly charismatic Texas renegade.
Vallée's film is powered by a galvanic performance from Matthew McConaughey, who notoriously dropped 47 pounds in order to convincingly play the emaciated Woodroof. That's obviously a drastic move, but it certainly lends considerable verisimilitude to what we see onscreen, just as Christian Bale's similar weight-loss routine brought jaw-dropping realism to his portrayal of crack-addicted Dicky Eklund, in The Fighter.
But the intensity of McConaughey's performance here derives from a great deal more than his painfully thin frame; he charges through this role with a level of desperation that matches his character's angry struggle to stay alive. And anger is the right word, because Woodroof quickly comes to believe that the U.S. medical establishment is, at best, moving much too slowly to battle a disease primarily killing the nation's "expendables"; or, at worst, actively conspiring with Big Pharma to develop and deliver piecemeal treatment in a manner designed solely to maximize profits.
Minutaglio allowed Woodroof to air such views in the Dallas Life article; scripters Craig Borten and Melisa Wallack run with that notion, making it the Big Enemy that fuels the rage which, in great part, also keeps Woodroof alive. McConaughey is impressive at every extreme, whether railing against the intransient U.S. establishment — personified here by patronizing FDA agent Richard Barkley (Michael O'Neill) — or turning on the charm when in the incandescent glow of a sympathetic doctor, Eve Saks (Jennifer Garner, in a role that is a composite of several helpful, real-life individuals).
This film's press notes are careful to mention that Borten and Wallack's screenplay is "inspired by" true events, and therefore not above shading for the sake of crowd-pleasing heft. Thus, McConaughey's Woodroof is introduced as a sexually promiscuous, good ol' boy Texas homophobe; his reaction to hearing the dread diagnosis, as delivered by Eve's self-righteous boss, Dr. Sevard (Denis O'Hare), is to disbelieve it entirely.
I'm not like that, Woodroof insists; the blood work must've been mixed up.
But he cannot overlook his rapidly declining health, his weight loss, and the waves of crippling mental confusion and agonizing joint and muscle aches. Reluctantly acknowledging the inevitable, he conspires to obtain an illicit supply of AZT — unwilling to chance becoming one of the placebo-ingesting control patients in the study at the hospital where Eve and Sevard work — and starts dosing himself.
The results are far less than favorable, because the initial AZT dosage recommendations were much too high. Given a name and address in Mexico, Woodroof stumbles his way into a clinic run by expat Dr. Vass (Griffin Dunne), presented here as an all-knowing "AIDS guru" with a savvy understanding of which drugs help, and which don't.
Vass is an Obi-Wan Kenobi character, far larger than life and depicted with a mildly humorous undertone, but Dunne pulls it off; this is the guy you'd want in your corner.
More to the point, Vass is willing to franchise. And Woodroof, with McConaughey's feral gaze smelling opportunity as well as personal salvation, jumps at the chance.
What follows is a captivating blend of fact and scripted fancy. Woodroof really did smuggle drugs across the Mexican border hundreds of times, often using a legal pad to clock the behavior patterns of guards at the U.S. Checkpoint. He'd dress as a priest or a doctor, his wide Texas grin and affable manner often carrying the day.
Hell, this film leaves out some of Woodroof's best adventures, such as a buying spree in Japan that climaxed when he packed 36 vials of interferon into a briefcase filled with dry ice, only to discover that condensation was forming on the outside of the case as he approached the Japanese customs agents.
The point this film makes repeatedly — always at McConaughey's passionate best — is that Woodroof's drugs aren't illegal, merely unapproved ... and, as such (in his view), not subject to seizure no matter what the circumstances. Things weren't that simplistic in real life, of course, given the genuine concerns associated with people who self-medicated using unlicensed and often untested drugs.
Really, though — and this is the moral bottom line — it's difficult to mount that argument with an individual suffering from a disease carrying an impending death sentence, and a painful one. If this film's establishment totems — Barkley and Sevard — come off as callous jerks, it's undoubtedly because early AIDS patients confronted scores of condescending idiots just like them.
And because O'Hare and O'Neill do such a fine job of making us loathe them.
Woodroof's increasingly stubborn, rage-against-the-establishment quest notwithstanding, this film's primary dramatic heft comes from his relationship with Rayon (Jared Leto), a high-spirited, cross-dressing AIDS patient. Rayon is a wholly fictitious character, fabricated to grant McConaughey's Woodroof a journey of the soul: from contemptuous homophobe to compassionate caregiver.
Like McConaughey, Leto fasted in order to play this part, dropping to a clearly unhealthy 116 pounds. His character is an archetype intended to depict the ghastly reality of the LGBT community in 1980s Texas: an unpleasantly judgmental atmosphere conveyed, early on, by the back-slapping buddies who suddenly drop Woodroof like a hot coal, once his diagnosis becomes public.
Leto's Rayon is as mesmerizing as McConaughey's Woodroof, albeit from an entirely different universe. It's difficult to imagine two more mismatched individuals, and Woodroof's initially hostile contempt, and his brutal censure, feel like body blows: painful enough to make us wince. The pain flickers through Leto's eyes, but Rayon persists, seeing something promising — as always happens in well-constructed stories of this nature — in this hot-headed cowboy.
The resulting partnership begins as an alliance of convenience, but soon blossoms. A moment arrives when, as the saying goes, there won't be a dry eye in the house.
Despite the iconic status granted Woodroof and Rayon in this film, it's important to recognize that both are deeply flawed: the former for his initially opportunistic, sex-and-cocaine-fueled lifestyle; the latter because he's a helpless junkie. That we come to admire both men speaks well of Vallée's sensitive touch, and of the finely shaded performances he draws from his stars.
The real Woodroof no doubt would have enjoyed the way Texas-born McConaughey portrays him in this film. And, at the end of the day, it really doesn't matter if Vallée, Borten and Wallack have exaggerated Woodroof's virtues in order to concoct a more powerful underdog story. Even documentaries shade their subjects, while making a statement.
Woodroof deserves his status as a blister on the hidebound American political machine that waited so long to move aggressively on AIDS research, and this film is just the means by which he should, at last, be remembered as a counter-culture champion.

5 Stars
Historical Fiction
Teen to Adult
My children have recommended a number of books they read from their homeschooling library. I am slowly working my way through them. The Breadwinner is another of these books. They are all good, thought provoking and have important educational value. I enjoy them but to read them all one after another is emotionally draining. All royalties for this book incidentally are donated to Women for Women in Afghanistan. It is a fictional account based on the stories shared with the author in the refugee camps.
Our heroine is Parvana, who is a young Afghan girl, living in Taliban controlled Afghanistan. Women and girls are denied education and even the right to go out of the home without male accompaniment or escort. Her father is thrown in prison and to enable the family to survive Parvana gets a haircut and pretends to be a boy so she can work and provide for the family.
We get to go along with Parvana as she encounters horror and humanity along the way. For me it is difficult for me to comprehend this kind of oppression of women so it was quite educational. The message the book gives is very important.
The book ends in a rather open ended way. Afghanistan's problems are not resolved. Parvana's family is not all reunited. It does end on a hopeful note and I think it is an effective end.
I of course highly recommend this particular book and give it a full five stars.

Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins (GPI-APs) are ubiquitous in eukaryotes. Examples of GPI-APs include folate receptor, acetylcholinesterase, renal dipeptidase and the variant surface glycoproteins of Trypanosoma brucei, the causative agent of African sleeping sickness. Inability to synthesize GPI-APs results in embryonic lethality in mammals. Defective GPI biosynthesis in multipotent hematopoietic human stem cells causes paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria, an acquired hemolytic disease. GPI-APs are needed for fungal cell viability and they are important in diseases such as trypanosomiasis, malaria and leishmaniasis that are caused by parasitic protozoa. The GPI assembly pathway is a drug target for fungal and protozoal diseases. GPI anchoring is catalyzed by GPI transamidase (GPIT), a 5-subunit membrane- bound complex located in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The catalytic subunit, Gpi8, shares homology with caspases;the functional role of the other subunits is unclear, but all are required for GPIT activity. Three of the non-catalytic subunits are over-expressed in certain cancers, indicating a link between GPIT and oncogenesis. In this R21 application we propose to initiate structure-function studies of the GPIT complex using electron microscopy and X-ray crystallography. We are ultimately interested in establishing the structural organization of GPIT, delineating the role of its subunits, and understanding how this important enzyme is regulated. In two specific aims we propose to (1) analyze the endogenous GPIT complex from yeast by electron microscopy and (2) express GPIT subunits and sub-complexes for X-ray crystallographic studies. Our efforts are expected to yield a medium-resolution structure of GPIT and pave the way for a future high-resolution structure of the intact complex. These studies will have high impact as there is no structural information on GPIT;also, results obtained here will shed light on other multi-subunit membrane bound enzymes in the ER such as oligosaccharyltransferase and signal peptidase that play a critical role in processing a wide range of ER-translocated proteins, including proteins destined for GPI anchoring, but whose functional architecture remains largely a mystery.
Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins such as folate receptor and acetylcholinesterase are ubiquitous in eukaryotes. They are also key players in diseases caused by fungal pathogens and parasitic protozoa. GPI transamidase, the enzyme responsible for synthesizing GPI-anchored proteins, is a complex structure consisting of five components that are embedded in a biological membrane. We are interested in using applying the tools of modern structural biology to learn about the structure of this enzyme as a first step to understanding how it works.

With effect from Monday 21th May 2012, SAL's Manchester laboratory will no longer restrict the chemical analysis which can be undertaken on asbestos containing soil samples. Prior to this date, samples with a known asbestos content could not undergo the drying, crushing and sieving stages required prior to certain analyses (e.g. metals).
SAL's continuous strive to offer a client led and quality driven service has led to significant investment in the soil preparation areas to control the potential release of asbestos fibres into the laboratory environment. A revised and updated dust extraction mechanism has been installed, along with a series of new HEPA filtered cabinets. A new procedure to deal with asbestos containing samples has been written and adopted.
This latest development compliments SAL's existing capability at the Manchester site to provide a phased approach to asbestos quantification in soil samples:
- Stage 1 – Asbestos ID test (in accordance with HSG248) by microscopy.
- Stage 2 – Quantification of the asbestos content with any detected asbestos containing materials.
- Stage 3 – Suspension and quantification of any detected loose asbestos fibres.
A reporting limit of 0.001% is applicable.
No restrictions on the testing that can be undertaken on asbestos containing soil samples means that MCERTS accredited chemical testing can now be undertaken and reported on such samples.
For further advice on testing, costs, service, and any other queries please contact us online.

Straight line quilting ........ I think !!
One of the bloggers I follow -
Canadian Abroad
has been doing some amazing straight line quilting.
I was so inspired by the wonderful work she has been doing that I decided to have a go my self.
There's a bit of a runkle, but hopefully I'll get better.
I have managed to do a quarter of the quilt in one day.
So much quicker than hand quilting.
This is a quilt top my Mam has made, I'm just finishing it off for Project Linus.
I haven't learned how to do links yet.
I'm on a steep learning curve putting this blog together.
Some kind bloggers have sent me links to "How to " sites.
I'm hoping to do some homework this weekend.

The notion of -SERVICES- in modern economy - Descarga este documento en PDF. Documentación en PDF para descargar gratis. Disponible también para leer online.
The notion of -service- is a very important one, with an increasing role in an expanding economy which becomes the condition of sustainable and long-term development. The technical services that must be assured differ according to the type of product.In Romania, the market economy towards which we are moving today is characterized by an abundant production, an intensive national and foreign competition, a supplying facility all over the region. Through their decisions, consumers and users direct production, encouraging thus distributors through their forms of distribution.In all companies the commercial function includes a series of activities that concentrate on -obtaining an optimal market quota, achieving benefits indispensable for an efficient activity, and meeting consumers and users- requirements -. This conception identifies with the marketing one, and the services become an integral part of the dynamics that characterizes the actions which complete the proper commercial administration. The company must pay much attention to all these, the services being considered successful facts and elements that generate actions which must be included in activities such as selling, advertising and promoting.

HR colleagues are proactively working with Serco and HMRC to resolve the issue.
Please note that if you check your payslip and notice that your tax code has changed, this may be due to the new financial year and not due to the error we've been alerted to.

We will be providing further updates throughout the day to advise further.

The Iterative Solution for Electromagnetic Field Coupling to Buried Wires
College of Science, National University of Defense Technology, Changsha 410073, China
Received 9 January 2011; Revised 12 March 2011; Accepted 1 April 2011
Academic Editor: Ben T. Nohara
Copyright © 2011 Xufeng Zhang et al. This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.
By integrating the electric field integral equation and the transmission line equation, an iterative solution for the electromagnetic field coupling to buried wires is obtained. At first we establish the integral equation which the difference between solutions of the integral equation and the telegraph equation satisfies. Then the solution of the telegraph equation is used to approximate the solution of this integral equation. Every following step of iteration is an improvement on the transmission line solution, and with several iterations, a well approximation to the solution of electric field integral equation can be obtained.

How do I keep my dog from self-serving ice cubes and water from my refrigerator? For months I thought the appliance was faulty because there were always pieces of ice and puddles of water in front of it. A few hundred dollars in service calls later, I finally caught my dog in the act. What now?
If your dog's desire to obtain water is not because of a medical condition (and I urge you to have him checked immediately by your vet to rule this possibility out), then you've just learned what all good dog behaviorists already know – Dogs Learn Best What They Discover Themselves.
Whether it's something you want them to learn (a "down" command), or not (using the toilet as a water bowl), if they gain the knowledge themselves, they'll accomplish their goal more quickly than if you tried to teach them. Plus, as an added bonus, the behavior will most likely become hard-wired into their psyche (read: difficult to "re-train"). To fully understand this concept, think about how long it would take you to teach your dog to climb over the fence in your backyard vs. how long it would take him to climb over it if there was something he really wanted on the other side. Non-neutered dogs seeking the attention of females in heat would fall into the Warp 5 category of fence-vaulting.
In your case, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Unplugging the water and ice capabilities of your refrigerator and letting your dog have a fruitless (or cube-less) month or so whenever he pushes the levers will eventually extinguish the behavior. However, if you take away his one-armed bandit game without substituting a few challenging dog toys, then you risk him quitting his ice cube habit and taking up another, equally entertaining (to him) game.

Well, just as I was getting used to roster I decided to do my site over before final launch to make sure everything was good to go, and the site was nice and clean, and Viola...Blizz destroys me! I reinstalled today only to find out that my Roster wont work all I get is:
Could not find guild in database. Please update members first.
Could not update "". Maybe its not set in configuration?
I have been reading on the site there is a fix. I even downloaded the new wowdb.php file and made the changes to upload.php to no avail. So I am here to ask the burning question.
Is there someone working on a fix for NUKE and Post WOW2 Roster? Or is there someone that can just give me information to fix, edit, amend or anything else that will allow me to upload my guild, and roster info?

Sadly, Kathleen3, those Socialists don't give a hang how many BP officers were killed by guns we provided, nor do they care that Agent Terry was given bean bag rounds instead of buckshot. Agent Terry was "colateral damage" to them.
The "common denominator", Freepster, is that these illegal alien Cartel-hired thugs care not one iota for human life. They'd slit your throat or shoot you "for the pleasure of it". They deserve death and should be given death.
He's no schizo. That's what his lawyer's psychiatrist will attempt to portray so he can avoid the death penalty. However, he murdered those 6 and tried to assassinate his Congresswoman, a premeditated act that may have involved accomplices.
Try him, convict him and give him the juice.
Jeff, it's good to read from your post that people are angry and that the situation on the Border with anarchy and lawlessness being the order of the day instead of American citizens being able to come and go from their homes whenever they want without fear of home invasion and bodily injury. And you and others posting here are quite right that "Sooner or later, someone is bound to get hurt" or killed. If it's one of you and your neighbors, there will be reprisals. People can only take so much. If it's the illegals who are injured or killed, La Raza and other groups--as well as the Mexican Govt--will be calling for legal action against those who defended their families and property. Look what happened to Randy Barnett. He lost his ranch and the illegal alien trespassers on his land got the money and a free ticket into the U.S. All it takes is a Johnny Cochrane D.A. and a liberal judge and there are certainly plenty of them in AZ and NM!
The Hunts are heroes and should become activists in the fight to stop the Invasion from Mexico. Their lives are in danger every day. The Minuteman Project is one way to go--forming your own little Minuteman group. When the authorities are out-gunned and out-manned, the People have to protect themselves and that's what should be happening in Portal, Rodeo and Lordsburg.
You have the patients running the asylum. Aguilar is a fat, lying bozo. He's probably never told the truth about anything in his life. Napolitano was Governor of the Invasion State and blocked nearly every attempt by the anti-Invasion Patriots in the Legislature which tried to pass laws going after employers who hire illegals and laws going after illegals. However, the "we'll enforce what laws we want crowd" wasn't much better under 8 years of Bush. If you'll recall, it took the screaming my a few conservatives in the House to pass the Secure Fence Act in 2006 and have it signed by a pen-throwing Bush--only to watch the Dems who took over Congress a few months later de-fund that Act. As a result, only 35 miles of the required 750 miles of double fencing were built!
So what to do about it. Clearly, nothing will be done by the Marxist in The White House who wants illegal alien votes and lots of them by pushing Amnesty now and leaving the Border wide open. Zero could close that Border if he wanted. The Minutemen are so divided now that they can do little and they wouldn't start patroling the Border until April. If the House goes Republican next fall, nothing will be done till January 2011. That's a lot of Invasion time. One thing might change with so many people out of work...Some of those Patriots may end up trying to defend our Southern Border on their own, but they won't be Minutemen. If enough of them can do it, maybe that will work but it costs money to live in an RV or in a camper and it's dangerous on the Border.

west Yorkshire Fire and Rescue are reminding residents to check their fire alarms this Valentine's Day.
The service have released a new video highlighting the importance of having a working fire-alarm.
Firefighter Will Basnett, from Cleckheaton Fire Station, who stars in the video, said: "We can all get caught up in the hype that surrounds Valentine's Day and of course the presents and flowers go a long way to making someone feel special.
"By testing their smoke alarms for your partner, or even a relative, you are doing something vital to help protect them from the dangers of fire – remember your loved ones are irreplaceable.
"If you live alone, test your smoke alarm for your favourite pet!"
Between April 2014 and the end of March 2015, West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service staff carried out 42, 367 free Home Fire Safety Checks and fitted 50,921 smoke alarms.
During the same period there were 1, 254 fires in homes across West Yorkshire.
Fire Prevention Manager Sarah Laidlow-Moore said: "It's a fact that working smoke detectors save lives and they do need to be tested regularly and kept clean to do their job. It's amazing how many people don't regularly test their detectors when they are key to saving a loved one's life in a house fire."
