women who do not want to burn skin or skin cancer may often avoid it, but not too often shy away from sunlight. Because the results of research led by Johan Moan of the Institute for Cancer Research, Oslo, Norway shows that the benefits of sunlight in addition to helping us live longer, it also provides health benefits outweigh the risk of skin cancer.
Exposure to sunlight in moderation benefit of vitamin D is very large, because the sun spur the body to produce vitamin D. Some foods do contain vitamin D, but its main source comes from the sun.
Unfortunately the fear of skin cancer makes a lot of people distance themselves from the sun. In fact, such action is to eliminate important protections for the body of a series of illnesses. By getting more vitamin D, the body's immune system will work better.
Numerous studies show a protective effect of vitamin D intake greater for some types of cancer and diseases such as rickets, diabetes, and osteoporosis.
The best time to get sun exposure is in the morning and afternoon. But remember, it is not advisable to bask too long because you can burn skin.

Have you noticed that there's less "tsk-tsking" going on about how technology is dehumanizing our world? I have, and I think one reason this is so is that every day seems to bring a new example of some intriguing technology that dramatically improves our lives in one way or another. The latest? Therapists are using virtual reality (VR) technology to help people overcome crippling phobias -- such as the fear of heights, storms, public speaking, even spiders!
Imaginative Approach, Real Benefits
A study from Emory University in Atlanta, published in Behavior Therapy, found that VR helped about 76% of patients overcome their fears, making it as effective as traditional exposure therapy (where the therapist helps the patient confront the anxiety-provoking experience directly). I called Cynthia D. Jones, MS, LPC, a counselor at Duke University Faculty Practice in Psychiatry who runs the VR Therapy program there. She described the VR as being like "exposure therapy with a kick." She finds it works fast, too. "Most patients need only three or four sessions," she said, adding "I had one patient overcome fear of flying and be ready to fly after one session!"
Jones believes that the unique method of delivery is a key reason that the therapy is so successful, explaining that it seems to help break down the stigma around a phobia and turns it into "an interesting project." Patients get to learn about themselves and their bodies' reactions in a safe, private environment, avoiding the stress and potential embarrassment of having a panic attack in public. She likens it to using training wheels to learn to ride a bike, noting that "eventually the training wheels come off, but not until the rider feels ready." Another advantage: The phobia-causing activity can be repeated as often as needed, even during a single session. In contrast, a plane can only take off and land once each flight -- plus, flying is expensive!
Still Not Easy...
That isn't to say this treatment is as fun and easy as playing a video game. According to Jones, the virtual exposure still brings on physiological symptoms such as rapid heartbeat and sweating. Patients are taught new skills that help them to bring their bodies and minds back down from the anxiety, learning to create a new behavioral response to the situation that gradually replaces the fear. An important benefit: The VR experience lets the therapist watch how the patient reacts at specific points during the simulation, which is helpful in identifying the "root" issue.
VR therapy is not appropriate for everyone. For instance, if you have a seizure disorder, the VR screen can be overstimulating. If you typically suffer from motion sickness, the simulation of movement in VR therapy can bring on nausea.
However, if you suffer from a phobia and are intrigued by this form of treatment, it's certainly worth checking out.

Theresa May's government yesterday rejected demands that she appoint commissioners to run Kensington and Chelsea Council amid accusations that the authority mishandled the response to the Grenfell Tower fire.
The government's response came as the crisis deepened over who should be held accountable for the 80 deaths in the blaze.
London Mayor Sadiq Khan, pictured, had asked May to take the unusual step because he said the elected council for the borough of Kensington and Chelsea had "lost the trust of local residents". But installing commissioners would place the fire tower crisis even closer to May and her Conservative party.
The council owns Grenfell Tower, a 120-flat public housing complex that was destroyed in the 14 June fire. It is made up of 37 members of the Conservative Party, 12 from the Labour Party and one Liberal Democrat.
Council leader Nick Paget-Brown resigned on Friday, saying he accepted responsibility for the "perceived failings" of the council and said its members would elect a new leader at its next meeting.
But Khan argued that all members of the council were tainted by its response to the disaster. Fire survivors and neighbourhood residents have protested, accusing local officials of ineptitude and a lack of concern for their plight.
"It is crucial that the commissioners are people of high standing and probity, have a genuine empathy for local people and the situation they face and be untainted so that all residents of Kensington and Chelsea can have confidence in them," said Khan, a senior figure in the Labour Party.
But communities secretary Sajid Javid, a Conservative minister whose department supervises the borough, said now was not the time for the central government to get directly involved.
"We will be keeping a close eye on the situation," Javid said. "If we need to take further action, we won't hesitate to do so."
The frustration underscores the political and economic divisions in Kensington and Chelsea. Grenfell Tower is in one of England's most deprived neighbourhoods. Yet it sits alongside the affluent enclaves of Notting Hill and Holland Park, home to investment bankers and corporate managers.

Acknowledging that the concept of a statutory employer is to prevent an employer from avoiding liability under the workers' compensation statutes by sub-contracting the work to others, the Supreme Court of Idaho recently held nevertheless that a statutory employer is not liable for worker's compensation benefits if the claimant's employment falls within the "casual employment" exemption from worker's compensation coverage. The statutory employer should be liable for compensation in any case where that employer would have been liable for compensation if the employee had been working directly for the employer, indicated the court. Since the statutory employer would not be liable for the injuries of casual employees, it should not be liable for those casual employees hired on temporarily by the general contractor.

Natural cannabinoids have an immediate effect on our conscious experiences. Furthermore, there are 66 other cannabinoids which are included in marijuana. There are two major kinds of receptors which compose the endocannabinoid system (ECS) CB1 and CB2. CB2 receptors are part of the immune system. No matter the cause, less dopamine is generated in the brain which, over time, may lead to PD. purestcbdoil has more information on the purest cbd oil.

Contentment... The Biggest Lesson of Our Move
Moving here has highlighted my lifelong struggle with contentment. When we first moved here, I prayed for God to show us a clear reason for our move here. And then we started the adoption process and were matched with Xander. He was born 12 miles from our rental. DING! DING!DING! I thought.. we have our reason.
And then we did our six months of placement, our three post-placement visits with our adoption worker and his adoption was finalized on December 22.
And after thanking God for all He did in that whole process... my next thought was "So.. um.. what is next?"
I was impatiently waiting for Brandon to get a promotion, get the raise that goes along with it and move on to the next thing. Whether that means to move back to Augusta or move to another location, I'm ready... and impatient. And it stinks.
I was SO discontent, that I searched his company's job posting website on a regular basis. I googled the towns that have the same kind of offices, looked up the states homeschool laws, looked at real estate and churches and the general cost of living. I walked around our apartment and thought about "When we pack this next..." or "Maybe we won't take that next time."
I found myself going over my moving checklist I made myself last time and editing it. Since I had one long distance move under my belt, I knew better what to expect for the next time, right? I found myself looking at our savings and longing for it to reach an amount that we could move even if Brandon isn't offered help with relocation expenses.
I got antsy... and one morning, during my quiet time, when I actually prayed for "our next move in Your perfect timing" I suddenly felt convicted. I mean... I trusted God for our move here right? Yes, I did. And I trusted that He knew best when He moved us here, right? Yes, I did. So do I trust Him to leave me here until He sees fit for us to move? Do I really trust His perfect timing?
I started to stutter and stammer and got sweaty hands trying to "reason" out a correct answer. You know how that is, right? You know the answer deep in your heart but you try to find another one that is the "right" answer. The pretty answer... wrapped in a nice bow. Oh the pridefulness...
And that is when I really started looking at what it really means to be content. I wasn't quite sure what it was, I just knew that I wasn't.
I haven't been checking the company's job postings. I haven't even looked at real estate. I've been here... in the now. And focusing on what my life is right now. Right now, I live in Richmond, Virginia. Right now, I have a 6, 3, and 8 month old. Right now, I am a stay at home, homeschooling mama. Right now, my husband is in the position he is in and doing a mighty fine job at it, if I may say so myself. Right now... this is where I am. And one day, when and if God sees fit, things will change. But for now... I am right here and each day I have to actively choose to be content.

Nice post Steph! I think it is good to think about what the future may bring, but also nice to be content in your current situation. If we are always looking for what is next and planning then we will never be happy with where we are and what we have. Just my two cents...:)
And for the record, you never seem to amaze me...so admired!

I totally struggle with the being content (but waiting to see what God's doing next!) too! But I really don't want to live in a state of waiting for content-ness "when _______ happens..." or whatever. Ugh. It's hard!!

Oh I agree with both of you... I do think that is healthy and normal to dream, wish, hope and work hard for the future. But for *me* I need to find the balance between healthy dreaming and obsessive dreaming... Know what I mean?

For each eye shape, there's generally a corresponding method to make that particular shape look bigger. Fortunately, with a lot of trial and error, we've found a pretty universal way to make your eyes look bigger regardless of your eye shape! It takes 4 easy steps.
Step 1 – Eyebrows
The first thing to do is fill in your eyebrows. Eyebrows are everything when it comes to makeup! This brow this way sculpting kit is amazing because you get the two formulas in one little set (perfect for traveling or to carry in your everyday bag). We recommend using the "Dark Brown" shade and use the wax to define and shape your brows. The powder is going to set the wax and give you that natural look. Don't forget to blend with the little comb. If your brows have a mind of their own, this brow styling gel will hold your brows in place all day.
Step 2 – Eyeshadow
Ever hear, "you can't wear black eyeshadow if you want your eyes to look bigger."
Well THAT'S A LIE and we'll show you why.
Here, use the MAGNIF'EYES double ended shadow + liner in "Back to Blacks". Apply it onto your eyelid and then smudge it with your finger for a subtle look. Then, to blend any sharp lines, use the Kate Sculpting Palette in "Golden Bronze" and with a blending brush, apply it onto your crease. Tip: Blend, blend, blend! Lastly, apply the highlight colour from the same sculpting palette to the inner corner of your eyes. This technique will, you guessed it, produce the effect of larger-looking eyes.
Step 3 – Eyeliner
We recommend only applying eyeliner on your tightline or the upper waterline. This technique adds so much definition to the eyes. If you have small eyes avoid applying eyeliner all around your eyes because doing so will cause your eyes to look smaller and we don't want that, right? Use the Exaggerate Smoke N' Shine eyeliner in Little Black Smokey.
Step 4 – Mascara
This is the most important step! We're obsessed with the 24 HR SUPERCURLER Mascara. This mascara has a curling power that, seriously, lasts all day. To give the mascara it's maximum curling effect start by applying to the top set of your lashes, then place the wand so it hugs the roots of your lashes and wiggle the wand up and out to get the maximum volume and curl. This little trick is also going to give the illusion of fuller lashes!
Here's the final look. What do you think? Let us know in the comment section below! 🙂 xo

This fintech – or financial technology – service is called Ongo, and the company that owns it, India Transact Services Limited (ITSL), has partnered with RBL Bank to create a win-win situation for both commuters and drivers, ITSL's CEO Deepak Bhutra told TOI.
On the one hand, passengers get to make cashless transactions. On the other, the drivers, who do pay for a lot of things with cash, get RBL bank cards.
Fintech brands like Ongo are increasingly forging partnerships with banks.
Bengaluru-based online lending platform CapitalFloat recently partnered with IDFC Bank to provide digital lending to small businesses, and to cater to "borrowers who have no access to organised bank credit, with limited or no documentation and without existing credit history," the two companies said in a statement.
YesBank has partnered with up to 36 fintech companies for "payments, lending, digital acquisition and customer service," according to the Economic Times.
RBL Bank – Ongo's partner – also has tie-ups with three payments solutions companies, the ET report added.
A symbiotic relationship
But why do banks tie up with fintech firms at all?
Vineet Jawa, a Bengaluru-based serial entrepreneur and a co-founder of fintech firm Lendingkart, says there are two main kinds of fintech companies in India - Non-Banking Financial Corporations (NBFCs) which specialise in lending, and payment processing companies like PayPal or PayTM.
NBFCs can find banks more customers, and offer to absorb losses if customers default on loans. Payment processing firms are useful because they enable vendors to receive payments from a variety of bank accounts through a single gateway (like PayPal), or because they allow consumers to make purchases on their mobile phones (like Ongo), Jawa explains.
But can't banks simply create their own technological infrastructure? Jawa cites the Reserve Bank's Unified Payment Interface and payment banks as examples, and says they'll be disruptive in the fintech space.
However, there's a fundamental difference between banks and fintech companies that gives them different capabilities, and will help them specialize in different kinds of services. Bank operations are based on their having a physical presence – in the form of branches - and fintech companies use what Rajat Gandhi, Founder and CEO, Faircent.com, calls a "paperless, presence-less" model.
"My inference would be that banks will end up doing basic real estate driven processes, (and) fintech will eat into the profitable parts of banking like retail lending, wealth, (and) payments," Gandhi explains.
Banks and fintech firms post-demonetisation
Now that there's a push to create a cashless economy, will we see a boom in the fintech sector, and more partnerships with banks? Gandhi thinks so.
"With demonetisation becoming the 'new normal,' fintech companies are the hottest things going around," he says.
Gandhi thinks fintech companies will grow faster in the next three to four years than e-commerce companies have done recently.
Since their technology-driven model fits into the government's vision for the future of the Indian economy, they'll now see more interest from banks and end-consumers alike, he says.

Time Bomb
This week, North Korea made a commitment, of sorts, to divest itself of atomic weapons. Also this week, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) struggled to reach some sort of decision on Iran's noncompliance with the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty. Taken together, the two events tell us something about what can be achieved using ordinary diplomatic means to curb the nuclear ambitions of rogue regimes. The answer: Probably not enough.
In the first case, what seemed to be a diplomatic breakthrough quickly devolved to...

Netflix announced it is willing to play ball with cable companies like Time Warner and traditional communications content providers to provide streaming access to cable subscribers, so what? Your internet provider still sucks. It's still slow. It's still likely to go out at any given moment. Tell me football fans, I know the Superbowl is bigger than Christmas, but isn't there a schizophrenic voice in the back of your head, whispering "they will betray you, your service will go out. You must cover the world in finger paints and paper cuts!" Don't you dare snicker tech nerd, you're in the same boat. You know you're afraid, terrified even, that on the day of your online final exam the router will go into an epileptic fit resulting in a big, fat, F.
But why? Why is it that we have more content options today than ever before—YouTube, Netflix, Hulu, Google Everything,–yet we don't have the infrastructure to support it? Clearly, Google sees this as a problem or they'd have little reason to get into the provider game with Google Fiber.
The truth is simple, exquisitely lazy really. Internet providers suck because they have no impetus to improve. Currently, many Americans get their web juice broadband style, through a copper wire. The technology for faster internet already exists with fiber optic lines. More importantly though, monopolies with little oversight or able to change whatever they want for whatever speed they want. The ISP industry is similar to Big Oil in this regard.
This isn't the only issue. No, no, no the ramifications of internet suckage are not merely indicative of one writer moaning about first world problems. First world problems are about luxuries and a loss of perspective. First world problems are a mark of the self absorbed. Since the creation of the internet in the 1960s, American, and the rest of the world, has undergone a paradigm shift. In an interview with Bill Moyers, internet provider critic Susan Crawford astutely points out that in the early 2oth century, like the internet of today, "electricity" was "viewed as a luxury." However, this is no longer the case. The internet, just like electricity, has evolved into a utility.
Many jobs require internet access, but more importantly our education system is becoming increasingly dependent on the internet as a vital component of both the classroom experience and the homework experience. Crawford points out that 19 million Americans in rural areas can't get access to high speed internet and for an additional 1/3 of Americans high speed access is "too expensive." Hell, in his article "The Web-Deprived study at McDonalds," Anton Troianovski, writes that the web-deprived study at McDonalds! Not only does this blur the lines of corporatism and education, making students dependent on fast food joints for completing school assignments, it only fosters more obesity, more type 2 diabetes and more instances of metabolic syndrome in the student populace.
Access, or lack there of, to a utility is a feature of class division and social inequality, a far cry from so-called "first world problems." More Netflix is always a good thing, but it's no cure spell for our arthritic internet services, joints warn down by years of suck. Until America restructures corporate law and invests in better hardware, it simply does not matter how many services are available because kids will still be doing homework at McDonalds.

My mom let me free to explore ....mostly, and for this I'll be forever thankful to her, she understood as she was herself an artist. And yes, I must admit that she was very permissive in THAT particular aspect of my education.
When I hit that age when you consider paper and pencil not enough to hold your growing ego, I started to paint and left my drawing interest behind.
Funny how the ability comes back after years...
I finally found some nice smooth paper. Well, it's not archive but it looks great!

It's an excellent time to become a web-developer and if you're already one, congratulations – you're in a very good position. The question may arise – why is that so? Why is there such a high demand for web-developers? The answer is very simple – the times are changing, we're moving in the online era very fast, and if we're moving that quick, then someone needs to facilitate that online space. People who do this are web-developers, because they optimize and build websites, create software and mobile applications and make our online world a good place to be. It makes web-development a career path with great perspectives. Just think about it. The Bureau of Labor Statistics suggests that we will have a 27% increase in the amount of web-developers by 2024. What about the salaries? Well, figures show it clearly that it is a very attractive profession to choose. Today, the salaries range from $83,000-$136,000, and they're increasing.
If you want to become a web-developer yourself, you need to take a look at the job web-developers' job description:
You also need to take a look at the broad list of qualifications necessary for web developers:
Compared to other professions, the occupation of a web-developer usually doesn't require any certification. Of course, it will be a plus if you have a Bachelors' degree in computer science, but your actual experience is much more important . Companies will be much more motivated to get people who have already produced real products that work, rather than those who only have certifications but no working experience.
Another component that will help you to become a good web-developer is excellent communication skills. If you're able to communicate with the founders, customers and business users in a way that leaves only good impressions, this will increase your chance of climbing up the career ladder and getting a high salary.

LeakyCon 2017 So Far: Special Guests, Schedule & Tickets
Jul 13, 2017
Events, Fan Events, Leaky, LeakyCon, News
LeakyCon 2017 is fast approaching, and before we know it we'll be in Dublin watching Harry and The Potters, Potter Puppet Pals, Team Starkid and many more do their thing onstage! We're bringing you a detailed summary of what we know so far and what to expect at the convention:
Special guest appearances include (with more to come at a later date):
Alfred Enoch (Dean Thomas), Evanna Lynch (Luna Lovegood), Katie Leung (Cho Chang), Afshan Azad (Padma Patil), Charlotte Skeoch (Hannah Abbott), Louis Cordice (Blaise Zabini), Hero Fiennes-Tiffin (Young Tom Riddle), Potter Puppet Pals, members of StarKid Productions, MinaLima (Visual Designers), Pierre Bohanna (Head Prop Maker), Jim Cornish (Storyboarder), PotterCast, and a full line-up of Wizard Rock performances.
Autograph and photo sessions with guests on Fandom Expo Day (Sunday) are available for sign-ups NOW (so get in there quick!).
The schedule for LeakyCon was recently announced, with highlights including panels on themes such as language, diversity, theory culture and portrayals of women in Harry Potter (and much, much more), and one of my personal favourites: 'Will Hogwarts ever get wifi?' – a discussion about the role of STEM in the Wizarding World, as well as the potential influences of social media and connectivity. There's something for everybody to discuss, even if you just want to go and show your house pride or rant about how much you do/don't like Cursed Child / Fantastic Beasts, there's a meet-up / panel for it!
Of course you can't miss the Esther Earl Ball, StarKid performance, Wrock performances or live PotterCast episode, as well as a midnight screening of Deathly Hallows Part 2 (with live PotterCast commentary, finally!) If you want you can even literally yell with/at the PotterCast team on their panel 'The Stuff You Want To Yell Back At PotterCast'.
There will also be Q&As (including a panel interviewing cast members from Dumbledore's Army), performances and demonstrations on the Main Stage from special guests.
It's difficult to convey just how excited to be for this convention so be sure to check out the full schedule here so you can start organising your time – unfortunately no time turners will be available, so it's going to take careful planning to ensure you make the most of such a fun-filled weekend.
LeakyCon will be held at the CityWest hotel in Dublin (Ireland) from August 31st – September 3rd 2017. For more information on tickets (which range from $50 – $160: Marauder Passes are now sold out!) and FAQs, visit the LeakyCon website here!

My Christmas Tree
A couple of weeks or so ago I took on a mini craft project for my craft room. I wanted to share that with y'all. I took a few pics of what I made and what hubby got me for early Christmas present.
+Penny Duncan , I am sure the stock for HF just went up a bit. hahaha They hold tons of stuff and it's all at your finger tips. Yay!!!
+Sylvia Tabor over in the Google Kraafters Kommunity who showed us how to make these holders with empty paper towel rolls and toilet paper rolls.
My Christmas Tree
What if I asked you to decorate a Christmas Tree and put only things on it that would describe you, your relationship with Jesus and your relationship with others. Could you do it? Would you do it? I was sitting in church service Sunday morning and as the Pastor spoke, I was concentrating on his sermon and all the time I kept getting this mental picture. Do any of y'all ever get that mental picture that you just can't get out of your head? I do. Sometimes mine is an all out comedy skit of something that he is preaching on. Yeah, I know, only I could find the humor in some of the things that he preaches on and, by the way, every bit of it is scriptural. I just have say that I know God has a very good sense of humor, because He gave me a pretty good one, if I do say so myself. So, I can actually blame it on Him, right. Anyway, as he was speaking, I kept seeing a Christmas Tree in my mind. I finally just had to ask God what that was. Well, it was a Christmas Tree that was decorated with things that represented my relationship with Jesus and the people in my life. I didn't get a really clear image of it though. I was so intrigued by the idea that I thought I would try to mentally decorate a Christmas Tree for y'all and describe it as I go.
So, first off it would have to be a Cedar Tree. A Cedar tree never looses it branches and it stays green all the time. It will grow in places that a lot of other trees can't. It has a smell that only the cedar tree has. I love the smell of cedar. As a small child, I would pick up cedar shavings and smell them. I would actually rub them on my nose and sleep with them and get them tangled in my hair. Anyway, that's what we always had growing up and I remember all the fun I had when I got to help decorate it. Sometimes, I would get to decorate it more than once if it fell over. hehehe Redecorating is not as fun as it was to decorate it the first time. So, Cedar Tree it is.
Next I would put lots of colored lights on it. I do love the clear lights, but I am a colorful person and I love lots of color, so colored lights it is. God didn't say anything about colored lights or clear, He just said to let our light shine for others to see. And we are not to put our light under a bushel, but to have it out and shining bright. So, I do believe a lot of colored lights on my tree would be seen. So, colored lights, it is.
Next, for garland, I might string some popcorn and put that on my tree. Most everyone likes or loves popcorn. It does smell wonderful when it's popping. What is the first thing you smell when you go to the movie theater? Yeah, popcorn. The smell of it is inviting and pleasing. Have you every thought about popcorn? It takes a lot of heat, to make that kernel of corn transform into something that is so delicious. It has to "go thru the fire", so to speak, for it to be transformed into something that we love so much. Guess what, we have to "go thru the fire" also, to be transformed into something useful that God can use. Notice I said "go" thru the fire to be made into useful. If popcorn stays in the fire too long, it goes from delectable to detestable in just a matter of seconds. Sometimes we take our eyes off the popcorn and it burns. God will never take His eyes off us and He goes thru the fire with us. We are never alone. So, popcorn it is.
Next comes the decorations. First, I think I would want a box of crayons. They represent the big box of 64 that I had as a child. I loved those crayons and the many hours of pleasure they brought me. They also represent the fact that it's ok to color outside the lines. Our artistic skill, love and abilities come from God, so I will embrace my artistic side with the crayons. Next, I think there would be some big beautiful colorful buttons scattered about on my tree. I have always loved buttons. I learned to count with buttons. I always loved to play with buttons while Mom was sewing. Buttons are very useful. They hold stuff together. They can be plain and be useful. They can be very ornate and still be just as useful. So, a few buttons goes on my tree, just to make sure I stay buttoned up and together. Next, I would want at least eight different cookie cutters hanging on my tree. Six to represent the guys in our house; dad and five brothers. Then two to represent mom and me. Cookies was always a special treat. I would want them all to be different, because we are all different. God made all His children different, so mine would have to be different too.
Next I would want some glass ornaments. Glass ornaments of all different shapes colors and sizes. God made us in His image in all different shapes colors and sizes, but none the less, all still in His image. The glass represents how fragile we are. If not handled correctly, they shatter. So do we, when we are not handled correctly.
Next, I would have 36 small gold wedding rings hanging on my tree for all to see. Those would be as a reminder of the all the Christmases my husband and I have spent together. Representing all the good times and the bad, knowing that God was in the midst of it all. With the hopes of adding many more as each year rolls around. The circle also represents the un-ending love that God has for His children. Yes, a few gold wedding bands it is.
Next, I would want a few beautifully decorated acorns. Those remind me of times when my husband and I have gone on acorn hunts and found some really big acorns. I bake them in a low temp oven (to kill any insects or eggs that may be in them) for a couple hours, and turn the oven off, leave them over night and the next day they are ready to decorate. From a small acorn comes the mighty oak. They grow really tall on the upside of the ground. On the underside, where we can't see, they put down really deep roots! So, I want to represent Jesus Christ well when you see me, but I also want to know that I am firmly rooted in Christ. The roots are very important when the storms of life come thru, they determine whether you survive it. Everything above ground can be damaged, but as long as the root system is ok, the tree can come out of it. I may be shaken, but if I'm rooted in Christ, I can survive any storm.
Next, I think I would like to have some trumpets on my Christmas Tree. I have a few now, and when I do decorate, I love using them. I love the sound of the trumpet. Of course, I couldn't make a sound come out of one if my life depended on it. But, I do enjoy the sound of them. And I do keep my ear pealed, listening for the great trumpet blast that will take place when Jesus comes again. So, yes I will have a few trumpets. Next, I would have to have one small broken ornament on my tree. Why that, you ask? If we are honest with ourselves and God, we are all broken, in some way. That's what sin does, it causes brokenness, and we can't fix it. God can and does when we come to Him with our sin. So, that one small broken ornament would be a reminder to me, that although it is broken, it is still loved and useful. God can use each and every one of us, even with our brokenness, to His benefit and glory.
Next, y'all know I love me some purple! If you don't, it's not because I haven't told ya! hahaha Yeah, I think I would have some purple scraps of fabric on my Christmas Tree. Why just scraps of fabric? I am reminded of Lydia. The lady from the Bible. She was a seller of purple cloth and she also loved the Lord. Purple is a symbol of royalty. Since I am a daughter of the Most High God, I think just a few purple scraps would do me well on my tree. Next, I think I would have to have me some pearls on my tree. Pearl is my birthstone and fittingly so. Pearls are the result of an irritation that takes place in the oyster. Think about how bad an ulcer hurts, that's about similar to the kind of irritation that produces a pearl. The Bible speaks of pearls as having great value. The gates of Heaven will be made from pearls. Each gate will be made from one large pearl. That's one large source of irritation for each pearl!!! One of my very dear friends and I have special names for each other. She is Pearl Love, because she is the epitome of Love, Gods love!!!! I am Pearl Joy. My Joy comes from the Lord. There is also scripture that says not to cast your pearls before swine. So, pearls it is.
Next I would have to have to have a ladybug on my tree. The red one, that is. Who doesn't love a ladybug. Scientists done an experiment on ladybugs a few years ago and found out they are possibly the strongest creature on earth. They can pick up over 600 times their own body weight with those little suction feet of theirs. Pretty amazing, huh! They are very strong little buggers. The ladybug would represent my mom, one of the strongest people I have ever known. That's what I call my mom sometimes too. Next, I would have to have a little sweet pea flower on my Christmas Tree. They are a small, dainty flower; everything that I ain't! hahaha The wild ones found in nature are usually purple, woohoo. They do smell good. They are considered to be a good gift. They represent "good fortune", so I say that my good fortune can be found only in what Jesus Christ has done for me. This is what my mom calls me sometimes too. So, sweet pea it is.
Next, I love to have candy canes shaped like a shepherds staff. The shepherds staff reminds me that the shepherd looks after his sheep. Shepherds were the lowest of the low, but God chose them to announce His plans to that night in the fields while watching their sheep. Wow, talk about a chosen group of men that night! The shepherds staff was a useful tool to. Sometimes he has to use his staff to get one of the sheep that may have fallen in a crevice or something like that. He can just reach out and pull a sheep back to where it belongs. But the shepherd always has his sheep's best interest at heart. The sheep knows the shepherds voice, the shepherd knows the voice of his sheep. So it is with Christ as our Shepherd, He always has our best interests at heart. Next, I think I would need a few heart shaped ornaments on my tree. The heart represents great love. We see the heart of Christ form the beginning to end of the Bible. We also have learned to love, because Christ loved us first. Sometimes it is hard for us to love as Christ loves. But He has taught us to love others, even our enemies. So, I will have a few hearts on my tree as a reminder to love others.
When I get it all decorated with all the different ornaments and items I want on my tree, there's just a couple of things left. I would take a few hands full of glitter and toss it on the tree. Why glitter? It sparkles, it shines, and it shimmers!!!! It makes you smile when you see it. If you get close enough to someones glitter, you get it on you. It's a reminder that you was with that person and enjoyed time spent with them. I can just imagine how the streets of gold are gonna glimmer, sparkle and shimmer. So glitter, it is.
Last but not least, by any means is the tree topper. My tree topper would be a Cross. The symbol of what Christ has done for me and who I am in Him. It would not have to be the finest Cross ever made. I'll gladly take a rough cut, precariously nailed cross for my tree topper. The Cross was not ever meant to be a thing of beauty. The only way the Cross becomes a symbol of beauty is when it represents the transformation that has taken place in my life as a result of the finished work of Christ on the cross. If you see someone wearing a cross, ask them what it means to them. See if it means the same thing to them that it means to you. If not, share with them what the cross represents to you. So, a Cross it is for my topper.
There you have it. A Cedar Tree, colored lights, popcorn, crayons, buttons, cookie cutters, glass ornaments, acorns, gold wedding rings, small broken ornament, trumpets, purple fabric scraps, pearls, a lady bug, a sweet pea flower, shepherd staff candy cane, hearts, glitter and a cross. These are the things that would make up my Christmas Tree to describe who I am.
What would you use to describe who you are? Think about it. When I got done putting everything down to describe my tree, then it all came into focus and this is exactly what I saw when my Pastor was preaching Sunday morning. His sermon was about what came from Bethlehem, such a small and obscure little town. How in the world I got this from his sermon, I'll never know. Other than it just being what I call a God "thang". I do have to say that I am quite pleased with my Christmas Tree. I hope you will do the same thing this Christmas season and share your Christmas Tree with those around you.
I pray everyone has an awesome day. Share Christ where ever you go, what ever you do. You won't regret it. Ladybug, I pray you have a wonderful day and hope I get to see you soon. Sweet pea loves you so much!!!!
I hope y'all will come back real soon to check out what I have been up to. Would love to hear from you too. Till next time, God loves y'all and so do I!! hugs, Patty

Thank you so much Nanette!!! My desk had gotten to where I couldn't even get to it and remembered what Sylvia shared with us and I had all the stuff, so I made two and I make another one.

I tried to get t all my pictures I have taken over the years of my Christmas trees and pull out pics of ornaments, but it was so slow and I didn't have patience to wait for 1 pic to come up much a 6 or 8, so it is without pics, but did I liked the mental pics that it gave.

I love the Harbor Freight trays. A friend told me about them some time ago and I love mine. Thank you so much for allowing me to read about your Christmas tree. I have been upset this evening about a family matter that is causing me great stress but your visualizations have reminded me of some very important facts about our trials. We have a good Shepherd that loves and cares for all of us. He fights our battles. Have a great holiday and thank you for the blessings that I have received from reading your post.ReplyDeleteReplies
Ohhhh Claret, I just pray that God works out what ever is causing such great stress. I have to believe He will. Thank you so much for your words of encouragement to me.

Inspired by the countryside, Green and Spring use ethically sourced native British herbs and flowers in their products.
I head out west for natural pampering at the Beauty Shed in Hove, close to the Salvation Army Church in Conway Street, with free parking and late openings.
Rebecca and Georgie waved me in and served green tea. The space has greige interiors and calm cafe fittings.
There is an oriental boudoir feel upstairs which smells wonderful - quite an achievement given the two working gyms on site, run by Nikki Penny, an advanced Bobath physiotherapist, and her colleagues Oliver and Petra.
As trains rumbled past, "the eyebrow queen" Georgie filed and shaped my nails (short and square since I had the dog). My unruly cuticles were soaked and perfected.
A fragrant hand massage followed with a wonderful minty lotion by Green and Spring. Men have this manicure, minus the polish option. I went for an Essie colour called Frock and Roll, a dark shimmer. The precise and unhurried application included a base, two colour coats and a glossy topcoat. It lasted the whole week.
Inspired by the countryside, Green and Spring use ethically sourced native British herbs and flowers in their products.
These fragrant botanical extracts are perfectly showcased in Georgie's facial. You get free samplers to take home and 10% off in the Shed Shop, which sells Davines and other natural brands.
The one-hour facial starts with a soothing camomile and lavender double cleanse, followed by a gentle exfoliation.
The deep face mask sinks in during the neck and shoulder massage. A build up of muscular tension was released from my face, jaw, and neck. Lymphatic drainage helps to remove cellular toxins, and the area below my eyes was visibly lighter after the carrot oil eye serum and Green and Spring moisturiser.
It was quite a job to stay awake to faithfully report this. Later on, I felt so smooth and groomed that I actually went out in the evening without a scrap of make up on, which is a push at almost 50.
Five essential treatments are available in mini for £10 each including St Tropez Spray Tans, brow shape or tint, manicure, pedicure, and facial.
Book up quickly, as the existing customers are already very regular. A nurturing Green and Spring adventure, or pamper tin is ideal for Christmas, but I bet that some of you will quietly hog this affordable Hove secret all to yourselves.

Those given transfusions were three times more likely to have ischemic events after cardiac surgery, compared with those not transfused, after adjusting for age, gender, pre-existing illnesses, and other factors, Gavin J. Murphy, M.D., of the University of Bristol, and colleagues reported in the Nov. 27 issue of Circulation.
Infections were also significantly more common in transfused patients, in line with earlier studies, Dr. Murphy's group also found. Moreover, transfusions and their associated medical complications raised hospital costs by more than 40%.
"RBC transfusion appears to be harmful for almost all cardiac surgery patients and wastes a scarce commodity and other health service resources," they wrote. "It is difficult to identify patients in whom transfusion is truly necessary on the basis of hematocrit, age, or comorbidity."
The investigators analyzed 8,545 patients who underwent cardiac surgery in Britain from 1996 through 2003. The Bristol researchers said their data showed no benefit for transfusions in patients with hematocrit levels as low as 21%. They noted that other studies had found benefits when the 21% level was used as a trigger to begin transfusions. "This may represent a practical 'restrictive' threshold for a randomized trial," they said.
Transfusions also appeared to prolong hospital stays. Half of patients not receiving transfusions were discharged in six days, although the median stay for patients receiving transfusions was eight days.
The delayed discharge, along with the cost of blood products, meant that the total hospital cost for patients receiving at least one transfusion was 42% higher, on average, compared to those not receiving transfusions.
For patients in the middle range of hematocrit levels, the extra expense was even greater. Hospital charges for those with hematocrit between 24% and 27% and receiving five to nine RBC units were double those of untransfused patients.
Adjusted odds ratios for composite infection (737 of 8,516) and ischemic outcomes (832 of 8,518) for transfused versus nontransfused patients were 3.38 (95% CI: 2.60 to 4.40) and 3.35 (95% CI: 2.68 to 4.35), respectively. Transfusion was associated with increased relative cost of admission (any transfusion, 1.42 times [95% CI: 1.37 to 1.46], varying from 1.11 for 1 U to 3.35 for > 9 U).
At any time after their operations, transfused patients were less likely to have been discharged from the hospital (HR: 0.63, 95% CI: 0.60 to 0.67) and were more likely to have died (0 to 30 days, HR: 6.69, 95% CI: 3.66 to 15.1; 31 days to one year, HR: 2.59, 95% CI: 1.68 to 4.17; > 1 year, HR: 1.32, 95% CI: 1.08 to 1.64).
The findings add to a growing body of evidence that transfusions not only carry risk of blood-borne infections, but may have other adverse effects too.
"Heart surgeons have assumed that patients who have low red blood cell counts after surgery -- as a result of blood loss during or shortly after surgery -- would benefit from a 'top up' transfusion of donated red blood cells," commented Peter Weissberg, M.D., of the British Heart Foundation, which funded the study.
In an accompanying editorial, James Rawn, M.D., of Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, said, "This study joins a decade of observational studies demonstrating an association between red blood cell transfusion and adverse outcomes in cardiac surgery."
He noted that guidelines issued this year concerning transfusions in cardiac surgery "emphasize that the benefits of transfusion have not been adequately demonstrated and that existing evidence is an imperfect guide to transfusion decisions." They suggest a transfusion trigger of hemoglobin < 7 g/dL in postoperative cardiac surgery patients (class IIa recommendation). In addition, they suggest (class IIb recommendation) that it is "not unreasonable to transfuse red cells in certain patients with critical noncardiac end-organ ischemia (e.g., central nervous system and gut) whose hemoglobin levels are as high as 10 g/dL, but more evidence to support this recommendation is required."
He also commented that surgeons know how to get along without transfusions. "The experience with Jehovah Witnesses demonstrates that when a commitment is made to avoid blood transfusion, the effort is successful in the vast majority of cases," he wrote. "Recognition that blood transfusion poses significant risk for what is frequently an uncertain benefit can inspire a similar level of commitment."

As a jurist, a diplomat and a patriot he stood head and shoulders above the lesser men who have made a mockery of our republic…
Born in 1893 in Sialkot, this small town boy rose to be one of the shrewdest legal minds of his time. His early education was in Sialkot, after which he proceeded to Lahore for his bachelors degree, under the tutelage of none other than the great Iqbal himself. He got his law degree from King's College London in 1914, where he stood top of his class and was the first person from the Indian subcontinent to do so. He was, like most great figures of that time, called to bar at Lincoln's Inn.
As a practicing lawyer, he soon proved his mettle and had many reported cases to his name. The first major politician to recognize Zafrullah's talents was Sir Fazli Hussain, the founder of Unionist Party of Punjab. Starting his career in his early 30s as a member of the Punjab legislative Council, he rose to prominence as an indefatigable crusader for Muslims of Punjab. Later he represented the Muslims at round table conference and crossed swords with figures like Jinnah and Gandhi.
In 1931, he became the Muslim League president and at the roundtable conference, he cornered no less a person than Churchill in a committee hearing who was forced to accept Zafrullah's point of view. Later he was offered a seat on Viceroy's permanent Council, which he took to further his cause. He also served at varying times as the minister of Railways, Public works, labour and law under the Viceroy. For a brief period, he also became British India's representative to the League of Nations, just before it was dissolved.
However his greatest contribution came when he drafted the famous Lahore Resolution, which till this day is the rallying point of Pakistan and Pakistani nationalism. He had been tasked with finding a common point between the popular demand for "Pakistan" and Muslim League's all India requirements. The Lahore resolution was a broad based solution which left the door virtually open for several solutions and negotiation on the issue of partition. In essence it envisaged 2 or 3 great republics for the Muslim peoples and it was this document which forms the basis not just of Pakistan but also of Bangladesh. Later from 1942 onwards, he served as a federal judge (equivalent of an Supreme court C judge) of India and finally took leave on the eve of Pakistan to serve the cause of Pakistan before the Radcliffe Commission, on Jinnah's personal request.Commenting on Chaudhry Muhammad Zafarullah Khan's vigorous advocacy of the Muslim League case before Radcliff Commision, the Urdu daily Nawa- i-Waqt, Lahore, dated August 1, 1947, writes:
"For four days on end Chaudhry Muhammad Zafarullah Khan argued the Muslim case in most forceful, most brilliant and most reasonable manner. Success is in the hands of Providence, but the excellence and the ability with which Zafarullah Khan advocated the Muslims case has given satisfaction to the Muslims in as much as they feel that their just and righteous cause has been represented before the powers that be in the best possible manner. We are confident that all Muslims of the Punjab, whatever their religious beliefs, would acknowledge and be grateful for this service."
Iftikhar Husain Khan, Nawab of Mamdot, the President of Punjab Muslim League, in his letter dated August 8, 1947, writes:
"Now that the Boundary Commission has concluded its hearings, I wish to express deep sense of gratitude which I and all other Mussalmans of the Punjab feel towards you. Your unremitting toil in the collection of material, your brilliant presentation of our case and your profound interpretation of law and history have won universal admiration. In this most critical hour of our history, you have rendered an inestimable service to the Millat and created a lasting place in the hearts of all Mussalmans. We can never forget how willingly you agreed to interrupt your important discussions in London, return and fulfil this patriotic mission. The knowledge that your zeal was inspired solely by your love for Islam fills our hearts with pride and gratitude."
On 25th December 1947, Jinnah appointed him the Foreign Minister of Pakistan. At the UN, Sir Zafrullah emerged as the most eloquent advocate of all third world and Islamic issues. Zafarullah Khan was a great orator for the Palestine and the Arab cause and was an extremely respected figure in the Muslim world, he raised the Palestine issue in the United Nations on multiple occasions. In October 1947 he delivered a speech on the Palestine issue in the UN General Assembly, which is one of the most strong case ever presented for Palestine to date. The complete transcript of Zafarulah Khan's 1947 Palestine Speech can be downloaded from here.
After his speech, The Statesman, Delhi, dated October 8, 1947, editorially observes:
"For the first time the voice of Pakistan was heard in the counsels of the United Nations on a burning topic of world-wide significance when leader of this country's delegation, Chaudhry Zafarullah Khan, addressed the United Nations Palestine Committee at Lake Success on Tuesday. It was a telling speech which tore into shreds the specious pleas put forward by the advocates of the partition of Palestine. Chaudhry Zafarullah did not merely indulge in rhetoric when he described the partition plan as `physically and geographically a monstrosity', he proceeded to prove this by unassailable arguments. Answering the contention that the migration of more Jews into Palestine should be permitted because the Jewish displaced persons desired to go to that country, Pakistan's spokesman asked whether the Americans would consent to relax or abrogate their own immigration laws if displaced persons of various other nationalities desired to enter the United States and settle there? Would America, he further asked, agree to take in the five million displaced persons of the Punjab if they desired to leave the scene of their suffering and cross over to the United States. We have little doubt that the Arabs will rejoice to find the voice of Pakistan so powerfully raised in the United Nations in defence of their cause. The addition of the independent sovereign state of Pakistan to the comity of free Muslim peoples of the World is already beginning to have its effect on international affairs"
King Faisal-al-Saud, who in his capacity as Foreign Minister of Saudia Arab headed the Saudi Arabian delegation to the United Nations, in a letter, dated May 5, 1948, to Muhammad Zafarullah Khan, thanked him
"for your close co-operation and the noble stand which your Excellency has taken, not only during the meeting but since the question of Palestine has been put before the United Nations. Allow me to state that your high principles have created a desire on the part of all righteous persons to identify themselves with the efforts of your Excellency, not only on behalf of the Arabs, but Moslems all over the world as well"
The Secretary General of the Arab League Abdur Rahman Azzam Pasha in his letter of Nov 15,1951 said:
"Reading your speech in (UN) Assembly, I prayed to God to save you and preserve your health in the service of Islam."
Al-Ayyam of Damascus in it's issue of 24 February writes:
"Zafarullah Khan will be given a tremendous welcome in the Syrian capital. He raised his voice in defence of humanity, justice and righteousness at every political gathering and at every international forum. Zafarullah in the person who bent all his energies in representing the causes of the Arab countries and as such his name will ever be written in gold in the history of the Arabs. His conscience is saturated with faith; his conversation is marked with reason and logic. He always keeps in view true and unalloyed good of humanity. In welcoming Muhammad Zafarullah Khan today we are welcoming a person of faith, belief and humaneness who wants to see the establishment of a pure, clean and exemplary society in the world, who desires to bring about an environment of brotherhood and camaraderie in which human life could flourish unimpeded and no human being could usurp the rights of another fellow human being."
Prominent Egyptian leader Al-Sayed Mustafa Momin, in an interview to A.P.P (published in various Pakistan dailies dated May 24, and 25, 1952) states:
"Chaudhry Muhammad Zafarullah Khan holds an enviable position in the world of Islam. He is looked upon as a topmost statesman, in the Middle East in general and in Egypt and other Arab countries, in particular. By his forceful support of Tunisia, Morocco, Iran and Egypt at the United Nations, he has served the cause of Islam in a way no other leader has been able to do."
His speech on Kashmir Issue on January 15, 1948 in the UN Security Council is considered as the most comprehensive presentation of the Kashmir Issue ever on international stage, his speech continued for 7 straight hours and resulted in materialization of UN resolutions on Kashmir which Pakistan even today holds as an evidance and basis for its case for Kashmir. It is unfortunate that the person who made such an incredible effort for our country has faded away from our history.
Chaudhry Muhammad Ali, who became Finance Minister in 1951 and Prime Minister of Pakistan in 1955, while referring to the debate on Kashmir in the Security Council and Pakistan's reply on January 15, 1948 to India's complaint, in his monumental book "The Emergence of Pakistan" states that:
"Zafarullah Khan's masterly exposition of the case convinced the Security Council that the problem was not simply one of expelling so called raiders from Kashmir, as the Indian representative would have them believe, but of placing Indo-Pakistan relations on a just and peaceful basis and solving the Kashmir dispute in accordance with the will of the people of the State."
Syed Sharifuddin Pirzada, a former Foreign Minister of Pakistan and President of the Pakistan Legal Aid Association, says:
"From Sialkot to the Security Council, from Round Table Conferences to international conferences, from the Join Parliamentary Committee on Constitutional Reforms to the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan, from the Viceroy's Executive Council to the Pakistan Cabinet, from the Indian Assembly to the General Assembly of the United Nations and from the Federal Court of the sub-continent to the International Court of Justice, Chaudhry Zafarullah's contribution is clean and consistent, creditable and commendable."(Dawn, Karachi, March 3, 1964)
Later Sir Zafarullah Khan became the first Asian president of the International Court of Justice, a singular and unique honor for any Pakistani. He also served, briefly, as the President of the UN General Assembly. On his retirement from the International Court of Justice, the Hauge, Former Prime Minister of Pakistan Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto sent him this message.
"I wish to convey to you our deep appreciation for the services you have so selflessly rendered over several decades to the people of Pakistan as well as to the international community. As a leading member of the political movement, which led to the achievement of a homeland of the Muslims in the sub-continent and earlier as President of the All India Muslim League in 1931, you played a very significant role in the creation of Pakistan. As Foreign Minister of Pakistan for the first seven years after the birth of the country, you helped in establishing Pakistan as a state which commanded respect abroad and whose voice carried weight in international forms. Your services to Pakistan, however, did not end there. As President of the UN General Assembly and as a judge of the International Court of Justice you not only served the international community as a whole, but in doing so enhanced the prestige of Pakistan. I can say with full confidence that all of us shared the pridethat one naturally felt at the respect you commanded in the international community and the United Nations in your various capacities."
After 1953 distrubances against Ahmedis a court of enquiry was setup by the Government of Punjab presided by Mr. Justice Muhammad Munir, a judge of the Lahore High Court (who later rose to the office of the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Pakistan), writes in his report – commonly refered to as Munir Report.
"The President of this Court who was a member of that Commission considers it his duty to record his gratitude to Chaudhry Zafarullah Khan for the valian fight he put up for Gurdaspur. This is apparent from the record of the Boundary Commission which anyone who is interested may see. For the selfless services rendered by him to the Muslim Community, it is shameless ingratitude for anyone to refer to Chaudhry Zafarullah Khan in a manner which has been referred by certain parties before the Court of Inquiry." (Munir Report page 197)
Sir Zafarullah Khan was a prolific author on the history of Pakistan and Islam, his most famous book was titled "Agony of Pakistan" in which he makes plain the great betrayal which wrested the country from the hands of its patriots into the hands of those who were its greatest enemies. Ironically, today Jinnah's most trusted lieutenant is not even remembered by the state which owes him so much, including its own founding document. It is the memory of people like Zafrullah Khan that will keep alive the original idea of Pakistan and there is no doubt that one day the posterity will reclaim its true destiny as a progressive and modern republic.
Sir Muhammad Zafrullah Khan rendered much service to the Cause of Islamic Scholarship as well as through his acumen and skill as a lawyer and diplomat.
His publications are well known in academic circles, not least of which was his outstanding translation of the meaning of the Holy Qur'an, which he translated and published in continuous prose to make the Qur'an accessible for English readers. One of his most acclaimed works was the biography (Seerah) of his Master-Prophet, the Chosen One, Sayyiduna Muhammad (saw). Anyone who reads this will find it to be a labour of love – an ode to the Prophet (saw) from whose teachings he drew so heavily and practised throughout his life.
Most of his works are now available to read online or download.
Some of his publications and translations can be found on this page: http://www.alislam.org/books/

The heart-breaking images of a skeletal bear in Indonesia's 'death' zoo being forced to eat its own faeces have prompted online petitions to shut the zoo.
Video taken by animal welfare group Scorpion at Bandung zoo on the island of Java showed one emaciated animal in a small dirty pen.
Footage shot earlier this month showed how the sun bear had become so desperate for food that it ate its own faeces.
Volunteers from Scorpion reported that the sun bears in the zoo were only a fraction of their healthy 80kg weight.
They asked zoo officials for permission to visit and inspect the animals but said they were refused access.
The organisation has now started an online petition calling on the local mayor to close the zoo which has no resident vet.
Last year Bandung zoo, known as the 'death zoo', came under the spotlight when a 34-year-old Sumatran elephant died there after months of mistreatment.
