Artist Profile1
A trio of talented artists shines in New York
Three artists with proven credentials, currently located in India: Avinash Veeraraghavan, Sakshi Gupta and Mariam Suhail, are in spotlight thanks to a recent showcase of their works at the New York-based Tilton Gallery. Among them, the latter's work largely revolves around the incidental, mostly undocumented minutia of the everyday, conversations, media and culture. In her sculpture, video, text, drawing and digital images, she employs visual language from these diverse sources so as to dissect, reassess and re-present what might exist in the spaces existing between exchanges, ideas, historical events as well as daily occurrences. Originally from Islamabad in Pakistan, she now lives and works in the garden city, Bangalore.
Suhail (born 1979) completed her degree in fine arts from the Indus Valley School of Art and Architecture, Karachi. Her works were recently exhibited at the NGMA, Delhi as part of the 'Skoda Prize 2012' presentation apart from shows at GALLERYSKE, Bangalore; Gallery BMB, Mumbai (2010), Anant Art Gallery, Delhi (2007) and the National Art Gallery, Islamabad (2007), among others. She has been part of the Tanera Mor 3-island International artist residency in Scotland (2007) and also that of the Khoj International Artists' workshop, Mumbai (2005). She has taught at the Indus Valley School of Art & Architecture, Karachi and the School of Visual Arts and Design, Beaconhouse National University, Lahore.
On the other hand, Sakshi Gupta's pieces stem from an earnest desire to tackle certain turning points while facing a confrontational moment in life when one is required to make a tricky choice - either to channel one's entire energies to prod further and overcome the challenge or to sink further and hit rock bottom. Her sculptures of animalistic creatures render this tendency in a subtle metaphorical way. Whether a little elephant wrapped in its own trunk, caught in the suffocating act of trying to soothe itself or a wild boar with all its animal ferocity, her sculptures come across as unambiguously affirmative works. As with one that captures a plant-like form's transformation into a bird; to suggest that intrinsically vulnerable beasts attain relief through transformation.
The work marks the ephemeral moments of a break or shift and portrays the struggles demanded of change through altering, shedding and mutable layers. The talented sculptor (born 1979), based in Delhi, had a solo (Become the Wind) at GALLERYSKE, earlier this year. She has featured in group shows including 'Indian Highway' (curators: Gunnar B Kvaran, Hans Ulrich Obrist and Julia Peyton-Jones shown) at Beijing's Ullens Center for Contemporary Art (2012); 'Shadow Lines', Biennale Jogja XI, (2011); 'Homespun', Devi Art Foundation, Delhi NCR (2011); apart from exhibiting at Galerie Krinzinger, Vienna (2011); and 'Paris-Delhi-Bombay' at Centre de Pompidou', Paris (2009). A recipient of the Inlaks International Scholarship (In 2007), she has also won the Illy Sustain Award (2011) and the Civitella Ranieri Fellowship (2011-12).
Last but not the least; Avinash Veeraraghavan looks to draw on his keen interest in the visual idiom of prevailing popular culture and deft digital imaging for his multichannel video installations, graphic books and layered prints. An accompanying note to the show elaborates: "He is interested in images of all kinds, from photographs, patterns in print and textiles, wallpaper patterns, and wrapping paper to motifs taken from different cultures. The artist constructs his works through meticulously manipulating digital images that are skillfully layered and juxtaposed to open up new possibilities of meaning. These complex visual collages reflect a deep-rooted and often manic exploration of the structure of emotions and the interstices of the mind."
Veeraraghavan (born. 1975), who lives and works in Bangalore, has earlier shown his work at GALLERYSKE and Galerie Krinzinger, Viennaw York. He has featured at the 2011 Prague Biennale in its 'Crossroads: India Escalate' section; 'Indian Highway', Herning Museum of Contemporary Art, Denmark (2010) and Astrup Fearnley Museum of Modern Art, Oslo (2009); 'Still Moving Image', Devi Art Foundation, Delhi; and Hangar Bicocca, Milan, among other venues. A recipient of the Illy Sustain Art prize at Arco, Madrid in 2009, he terms his oeuvre as 'psychic shimmers' sans narrative, albeit derived from intriguing images of the flotsam and jetsam of peculiar everyday situations.
He presented his works in a group exhibition courtesy Gallery BMB that invited five artists from GALLERYSKE in October 2010. The artist then had mentioned that repetition of a single object, image or action over creates a pattern, explaining, "Patterns repeated over and over again in combinations one with the other create an image. This rule of construction constitutes the structure of all the works shown here, where layers of patterns are overlaid one on top of the other to create images and stories. The stories I tell are of decay and dead spirits, archeology and memory, purity and it actual constituents in horror, sex and castration."

| Spoiler warning!
This article contains plot details from one or more of the books.
Morag was once a beautiful silver she-wolf. But after Faolan's second to third year, she became blind and her pelt became frail. As Morag aged, she lost her energy, and the luster in her fur. After a while, Faolan met her and she died shortly after. Faolan built her a drumlyn and honored her bones and body. Then Morag climbed up the spirit trail with Thunderheart, Faolan's second milk giver .

Before the Books
Before being exiled for Faolan's birth and living peacefully with her mate, Kinnaird, in an unknown pack of the MacDuncan clan, Morag was born to Namara, Cormag and with brother, Airilla. She had given birth to two healthy litters of tawny pups before her third litter, containing Faolan, Mhairie, and Dearlea.
Lone Wolf
Morag first appears searching for a den to give birth to her third litter. Scared of birthing a malcadh, she went by-lang and attempted to cross the border. There are several shallow pits, but they would offer no shelter. Morag then finds a pregnant fox waiting to give birth and they fight over the den. After Morag gets rid of the vixen, she gives birth. She births three pups, two tawny females and a silver male. But the silver pup has a splayed paw, deeming him a malcadh. This is a small flaw, but will be serious in the clan. Morag told herself the deformity would leave in a few days, but however it remained.
The Obea of MacDuncan clan, Shibaan then tries to track Morag down. Shibaan had learned to become suspicious when a she-wolf went by-lang. She is able to foil her Morag's tricks, such as only urining in ice-free parts of the river. She finds Morag and takes the silver pup to an icy river bank. Shibaan returns and both she-wolves carry the tawny pups and announce the birth of the malcadh to the clan. Kinniard and Morag are exiled from the clan as is the rule for wolves giving birth to a malcadh.
About ten moons after Faolan's birth, Morag became mate of Brangwen of the MacDongeal clan and bore another litter of pups. She soon began to build mental barriers around herself, almost forgetting the malcadh, that had been taken away from her. Morag then sets off to find a new den. While near a creek, Morag spots a raven in the sky, appearently "asking" for help. The raven then leads the old she-wolf to the carcass of a grizzly, who happened to be awake in the winter. As she got closer to it, she found a scent on the bear. She recognized the smell of her silver pup and realized this grizzly has taken care of him for her. To show her gratitude, Morag guarded what remained of the grizzly from ravens.
Shadow WolfIn Shadow Wolf, Morag remembers about her son from two years ago, Faolan. She was becoming blind, because the darkness caused in the place Faolan grew in her womb had come to her eyes. Because of this, she had previously fallen as an outflanker during a byrrgis. She talks to her mate, Brangwen, about this. They decide they leave for the Sark of the Slough's camp because she believes the Sark knows her son. They leave at dawn, leaving their three pups (one is called Brecco) under the care of Brangwen's sister, Daraigh.
Watch Wolf
When Airmead and Katria are getting close to MacNamara clan, they meet Brangwen, and Morag. The four wolves soon joined the clan.Later, near the end of the novel, Gwynneth and the Sark of the Slough take Faolan to see his mother, Morag, who is now dying. Because she is blind, Morag must sniff her son. Faolan raises his splayed paw, which the old wolf sniffs and licks. She then realizes that she is with her son and she and Faolan talk. Morag talks about Thunderheart, and her son and herself being blessed. She asks Faolan what they call him, and he replies. She states that she was planning to name him Skaarsgard. Because Faolan's name means "Gift of the River", Morag says gift repeatedly and so it is her last word. Faolan then feels that last beat of her heart.
In the Epilouge, Faolan is glaffing, or howling in grief and mourning. He does this while building a drumlyn for her. His glaffing then turns to howls of joy when he sees a larger mist by Morag's mist on the Star Ladder, which belongs to Thunderheart.
Frost Wolf
After Finbar and Faolan agree to take Faolan's littermates, Mhairie and Dearlea, to the MacNamara clan, Faolan decides that he must show them their mother's drumlyn.Upon arriving in MacNamara territory, a scout of two wolves greets the three, and they continue to Broken Talon Point. They eventually arrive at the drumlyn, and Faolan tells the two sisters to carve a bone for her. While Faolan watches, Mhairie and Dearlea carved a bone telling her about themselves, and how Caila had raised them.
Morag died of old age shortly after she first met her son (not counting his birth), Faolan, in Watch Wolf. Her last word was "gift" (she kept repeating it after Faolan told her what his name meant). She is now in the Cave of Souls.
- Her mate before Brangwen was named Kinnaird, who, just as Morag, was exiled after Faolan's birth.
- Skaarsgard probably helped her up the Star Ladder, because she was blind.
- One of Morag's litters died when she used a shallow pit as shelter for them. She tried to lick them but her tongue bled from all the ice shards.
- In the 12th book of the Guardians of Ga'Hoole, a wolf named Morag is mentioned before the battle of the Book of Kreeth. This Morag is from the MacNamara clan. However, it is unknown if she is the same Morag from the Wolves of the Beyond series.
- She is a star wolf, because in Spirit Wolf she appeared as a lochin.
- "Morag" is Gaelic for "great" or "sun"

The Duke of Cambridge sported a newly trimmed hairstyle as he visited a children's hospital.
Prince William revealed the close-shaven style at the launch of the Step into Health programme at the Evelina London Children's Hospital in Lambeth.
He opted for the military-style cut before meeting armed forces veterans working in the NHS.
Members of the Royal Family have been known to tease the 35-year-old about his receding hairline.
In 2014, the Duchess of Cambridge suggested a tuft of alpaca wool might be the perfect solution for her husband's growing bald patch.
As they visited the Sydney Royal Easter Show, she was shown the wool, which was a similar shade of brown to the duke's hair.
The duchess pointed to her husband's head and said: "You need it more than me."
Prince Harry has also been known to poke fun at his balding brother. While chatting to a World War Two veteran in Barbados in 2010, he said Prince William "was already bald aged 12".
Step into Health is a programme that helps former members of the armed forces and their spouses or partners to take up careers in the NHS.

2015 Granbazán Albariño, Etiqueta Ambar, Rías Baixas
Gron on granitic soils close to Cambados - the self-styled capital of the Albariño grape - this is a remarkable old vine cuvée from one of the best producers of the grape in Rías Baixas. Scented, pure and beautifully balanced, with undertones of lime and apple, it unfurls impressive richness on the palate with pear and stone fruit flavours and a fine, linering finish.
Available from (as of date of review): N/A
Drinking window: 2016-20
2013 Attis, Albariño, Rías Baixas
£14.49, 12.5%, www.ralphswinecafe.com
Made in a pithy style, this tasty Albariño comes from the Val do Salnés sub-region. Pear, quince and white pepper notes are deftly combined on the palate, supporting good texture and concentration. Tangy and refreshing on the finish, with notes of lemon peel and oyster shell.

2013 Pazo Barrantes, Albariño, Rías Baixas
£18.49, 13%, Prtland Wine & co; Berry Bros & Rudd; Whole Foods Market; Philglas & Swiggot; Raeburn Fine Wine; The Vineyard; Soho Wine Supply; Fortnum & Mason
Owned by the same family that makes Marqués de Murrieta in Rioja (they were originally from Galicia). It's a white pepper scented, bone dry style with plenty of texture and weight on the tongue, showing notes of stone fruit and pear and a crunchy, stony finish.

2013 Granbazan Ambar, Albariño, Rías Baixas
£17, 12.5%, www.amathusdrinks.com
A strong contender for the title of Spain's worst wine label, this is an Albariño that tastes a lot better than it looks. It's a bone dry, saline white with notes of citrus and oyster shell and a long, citrus fresh finish. Minerally and focused with a hint of fennel on the finish.

2012 Albariño de Fefiñanes, Rías Baixas
£15.99, 12.5%, Waitrose
A bottle of this superlative Albariño is never far from my hand when I'm on holiday in Spain in the summer. The 2012 is well up to the high standards of recent vintages, possibly with a little more weight. Floral pefume, lemon and lime on the palate, crisp acidity and a hint of spritz: it all adds up to a delicious Atlantic-influenced white.

2012 Bodega Castro Martin Albariño, Rías Baixas
£11.99 down to £8.99, 12.5%, Marks & Spencer
Angela Martin's wines seem to get better with every vintage and are now among my favourite Albariños from Rías Baixas. The combination of low yields, ageing on lees in tank for added weight and very pure, almost transparent fruit flavours is very enticing here: apple, pear and some quince with a hint of honey.
Available from (as of date of review): Marks & Spencer
Drinking window: 2013-15
2012 The Society's Albariño, Rías Baixas
£12.95, 13%, The Wine Society
If you're going to use one winery as your source of house Albariño, Pazo de Señorans is a great choice. This is weighty and concentrated by local standards, showing aromas of lime blossom and fresh straw, crisp, apple and citrus fruit and an undertone of stony minerality. Long and very stylish.
Available from (as of date of review): The Wine Society
Drinking window: 2013-15
2012 The Society's Vinho Verde, Minho
£5.95, 11.5%, The Wine Society
Summer may be over (at least in northern Europe), but this is still a delicously refreshing, low-alcohol Portuguese white that's just the thing for sunny afternoons. It's commendably cheap, too. Tangy, spritzy and zingy, it's floral and dry with palate-tickling acidity and a citrus fruit bite.
Available from (as of date of review): The Wine Society
Drinking window: 2013-14
2011 Finest* Albariño, Rías Baixas
£7.99 down to £5.99, 12.5%, Tesco
It's a reflection of how Albariño, one of Spain's best white grapes, has entered the UK mainstream that the major supermarkets nearly all have own-label examples these days. This is from the ever-dependable Martin Codax, and it's a classy example of the style, showing some spritz, floral aromas, tangy acidity and notes of citrus and honeysuckle. Very quaffable.

Drinking window: 2013-14
2012 Taste the Difference Albariño, Val do Salnés, Rías Baixas

Classic Alabriño from the Val do Salnés sub region of Rías Baixas on Spain's Atlantic coast, showing lots of floral perfume, notes of pepper and aniseed, zesty acidity and a bone dry, seafood friendly finish. Spain's answer to Muscadet, but with a flavour that is all its own.

(iChinaStock News) Aug. 24 afternoon, Beijing time Lily Liu, CFO of Phoenix New Media (NYSE: FENG), discussed Phoenix New Media's second quarter financial report with users of the iChinaStock platform. Phoenix is a Chinese news portal, video site, and mobile services provider. The full-length Chinese-language discussion can be found by viewing Ms. Liu's iChinaStock account (@ Lily Liu of Phoenix New Media). The following is a summary of the discussion. iChinaStock also interviewed CFO Liu once in mid-August at which point she shared that "Lite-blogs will become a dominant social media product."1. Phoenix New Media's average advertising price up 70% from last year Question: In the first quarter, advertising revenues accounted for 43.8% of Phoenix's total revenue. In the second quarter, the figure rose to 50%. Will it continue to rising in the future? At what percentage does Phoenix New Media want to have this? Also, the Internet-based advertising industry is showing slower growth. Will this affect Phoenix's revenue growth?Ms. Liu: The advertising business has obvious seasonality, with the third and fourth quarter showing high growth. We estimate that in the third quarter, revenue from the advertising business will grow by 145% to 153% and will account for an increasing percentage of revenues. We expect it to reach over 70% in the future. Slower growth of Internet-based advertising will not affect the growth of Phoenix's advertising business. Our base is relatively small.Question: Phoenix's top five advertising categories in the first quarter were: Automobile, e-commerce, financial services, IT product, and food and beverages. Was there any change to them in the second quarter? More specifically: 1. Automobile industry is showing slower growth. Will this affect advertising revenue in the third quarter? 2. Will the e-commerce advertising business continue to grow as rapidly as it has been?Ms. Liu: In the second quarter, the top five advertising categories were also automobile, e-commerce, financial services, IT product and food and beverages. Our automobile advertising business still has large room for growth and slower industry growth does not affect us. As the e-commerce industry shows tremendous growth momentum, we expected that our e-commerce advertising business will continue to grow rapidly.Question: What is Phoenix's advertising pricing strategy? To what extent do prices rise? Will advertising prices go up in the next year?Ms. Liu: With our traffic going up rapidly, the extent of price hikes is based on the overall ROI we can bring to the advertisers. Currently, the price goes up twice a year in April and October. Last year, the price went up by an average of 70%. In April this year, the price went up by 53%. I believe that in the future, our price will rise the fastest in the industry.2) Paid wireless service revenues adjusted downward due to carrier policy changes Question: In the second quarter, Phoenix's revenue from paid services was 113.6 million yuan (about $17.6 million), up 44.7%. But the estimate for the third quarter is between 115 million yuan and 120 million yuan, up only 15% to 20%. Out of what considerations was the expected growth of paid service revenue adjusted downward?Ms. Liu: The downward adjustment was based on our judgment of the whole wireless industry. Carriers' internal policy changes and structural changes affect the whole industry. We can see that telecommunication companies are spending less effort introducing new businesses and products, such as video and reading, than at the beginning of the year. So we lowered our growth expectation.Question: Deutsche Bank's report writes, "Phoenix stock's downside risks include: China Mobile's unfavorable adjustment of profit sharing policy, tightening of relevant Internet policies, and weakening and termination of relation with parent company." What is your opinion on this? How does Phoenix handle these two risks?Ms. Liu: In the wireless area, we will increase new product development and be subject less to carriers. Internet policy tightening is a risk in the whole industry. Ifeng.com is one of Phoenix Group's most important business lines.Question: In the second quarter of 2011, half of Phoenix New Media's revenue came from value-added services, most of which came from mobile value-added services. To what extent does the business rely on China Mobile? Will it be affected due by the popularity of new mobile networks (smartphones)?Ms. Liu: Mobile value-added services are influenced to a greater extent by telecommunication companies' policy changes. Influence from popularity of smartphones is not clear now, because non-smartphones claim a large volume in China and businesses like text messaging have inelastic demand.3) 90% of total revenue of mobile value-added services goes through China Mobile Question: Phoenix's Internet value-added service generated revenue of 1.4 million yuan (about $200,000) in the second quarter, lower than last year's 1.8 million yuan. What are Phoenix's Internet value-added services? In terms of user registration and usage, how is Phoenix's stock forecast platform "Ustock" doing?Ms. Liu: This business is not our strategic focus and accounts for a very little percentage of total revenue. It was a bit higher last year because of some one-time revenue. In the future, the revenue will be stabilized at the level of the current quarter. We will not individually disclose the number from next quarter on. It will be combined with mobile network value-added (MIVAS) service.Question: What is the percentage of revenue of MIVAS is from China Mobile and other carriers?Ms. Liu: China Mobile accounts for about 90% of total revenue. The remaining 10% is from China Unicom and China Telecom.Question: In the prospectus, you specifically mention a produce called "Ustock". How is it goin now? Does it have any influence on receivables?Ms. Liu: Ustock has very little influence on revenue. It is now included in the revenue of Internet value-added service (Internet VAS). Internet VAS is a part of our paid services. Due to its small percentage, it will not be individually disclosed from the third quarter on and will be combined with MIVAS.4. Paid video revenues mostly from mobile users Question: Lily, what was the advertising revenue from Phoenix New Media's video business in the second quarter? Also, video value-added service in the second quarter was 108 million yuan (about $1.7 million). Can you disclose the profit? Revenue from video value-added services grew just 16%. How will you increase rate of growth?Ms. Liu: Video advertising accounted for 18% of total advertising revenue. We don't further divide profit from video value-added services because the content cost cannot be individually accounted for. Growth of video value-added services relies on quality content and stronger promotion that serve to attract more users who are willing to pay.Question: At present, does revenue from paid video come from PCs or mobile phones? By the end of the second quarter, what number of purchasers can mobile phone video services reach?Ms. Liu: Paid video business comes from both PCs and mobile phones. But most is from mobile phones. Purchasing of mobile phone videos includes monthly plans and pay-per-view. The volume of pay-per-views fluctuates every month. But currently, it is over one million times every month.Question: In a previous interview, you said that "Phoenix will not recklessly enter the TV drama market and scramble for exclusivity. But the company will continue to make purchases in the distribution market and will not exclude the possibility of strengthening its efforts." What is Phoenix's plan on long videos (TV dramas and movies) in the second half of the year? In addition, what is your view on the video sharing on SNS websites?Ms. Liu: iFeng.com's video strategy focuses on information-rich short videos like documentaries. In the second half of the year, we will purchase mostly documentaries and entertainment programs. We won't rush to buy popular movies or TV dramas. Video sharing is a necessary application on SNS websites.5. Profit model of mobile terminals based on payment, over 70 games online each quarter Question: What is Phoenix's position in the area of Internet services? How is its development of mobile phone games? How many games are now online?Ms. Liu: Mobile phone games are now a very small business but they are showing healthy growth momentum. Currently, there are over 70 mobile phone games online in each quarter, plus another 4 mobile phone Internet games. They were developed by other CPs and we are responsible for the operation. As for the layout of the mobile network, we will maintain our advantages and leadership in mobile network and consistently develop and introduce new products, including client end app development and various payment processing businesses through cooperation with 3G portal websites and carriers.6. Investing 20 million yuan to develop Kuaibo (lite-blog) in the second half of 2011 Question: How will Phoenix Kuaibo (Phoenix Media's new lite-blog) be integrated with Pheonix's blog and microblogging services? Will there be any integration with iFeng.com or Phoenix Video?Ms. Liu: iFeng.com Kuaibo will be incorporated into our blog and weibo. But Kuaibo will be our emphasis. iFeng.com and Kuaibo have huge synergies in both users and contents. Phoenix Video is also an important part of the integration and is combined with our businesses as a whole.Question: What is the biggest highlight of the Phoenix Kuaibo? How many people are on the R&D and operation teams? Will it emphasize "relationships" or "content?"Ms. Liu: The biggest highlight of Kuaibo is that it incorporates the showcase forms of rich media with the strengths of blog and the strong interactivity of microblogs. At our current stage, we hope to attract users through quality content. In the future, we may focus on user relationships. Content and relation must be complementary.Question: At present, what is the investment on Kuaibo? What is the total estimated investment? Does it have a clear profit model? Is it mainly through advertising?Ms. Liu: We will take rsteady steps to invest in Kuaibo. We will determine the next investment based on the business progress. In the second half of the year, there will be an estimated 20 million yuan of investment. We will take full advantage of portal sites. Kuaibo will make portal sites' advertising business look very promising. In the short run, there won't be an independent profit model. But in the long run, it will mainly be advertising.7. Enhanced homepage has boosted traffic Question: Has Phoenix's enhanced homepage, launched in July, had any obvious effect on website's traffic? Can you disclose the comparative number of visits to Phoenix's various vertical channels? Does the news channel rank the highest?Ms. Liu: The new homepage has been very conducive to increasing traffic to the site, especially in attracting video users and female users and promoting the business channel. The news channel has been the leader in the industry and we believe it ranks the highest. For number of visits, you can refer to data from iUserTracker, though there may be some discrepancy between third-party data and actual data.Question: Users of iFeng.com have personal income founr times higher than that of ordinary Internet users. How are they compared with users of Sina and other portal websites? Will this become the basis for Phoenix to raise its advertising fees even further?Ms. Liu: Our users have three "high" attributes: high educational background, high income and high maturity. And this is why we have been popular among advertisers. User loyalty, growth in number of users and growth in traffic have been the basis for price hikes.Question: How much influence does the Phoenix brand name have on iFeng.com? Will you share the Phoenix brand name with Phoenix TV? Do you have cooperation with Phoenix TV and share profits with them?Ms. Liu: The Phoenix brand name is one of the important assets Phoenix Group has. We and Phoenix TV share our brand name. At the end of 2009, we signed a cooperative agreement with Phoenix TV, specifying use of the brand name by both parties, brand name promotion, use of exclusive content and technological support. These have been acknowledged by iFeng.com and Phoenix TV. We pay Phoenix TV a fixed cost annually. It is not a profit-sharing model.Question: Do you have more detailed numbers to share with us about the fixed cost you pay Phoenix TV (proportion/amount)?Ms. Liu: Please refer to the detailed disclosure in the prospectus. It can be summarized as: 1.6 million yuan in 2010 and the amount increases by 25% per year.Question: What is iFeng.com's difference in news content strategy from the four big portal sites? How does it maintain user loyalty?Ms. Liu: In the past 5 years, iFeng.com has been focusing on improving content and attracting and retaining users through quality contents. I personally think that iFeng.com has the strongest voice of all Internet media companies, a leader in new media. We will continue to strengthen our advantages in content creation and curation and increase products at the same time, including interactive products, to further enhance user loyalty and offer higher value to advertisers.

Student Loans Affecting the Social Fabric. Custom Student Loans Affecting the Social Fabric Essay Writing Service || Student Loans Affecting the Social Fabric Essay samples, help
Many graduates are at the crossroads if there is a reprieve in the economy that will help them to repay their students loans on time.
This has caused them to re-evaluate their lives, whether to delay their marriage or to have children. Most graduates work for longer hours and on more than one job in order just to break even. This is because of the high repayment figures, which consume 40%-60% of their salaries. Their social lives are affected, when they start putting off important family calendar events, such as vacations, in order to be with their loved ones.
Limited time Offer
According to the Federal Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (FCFPB) the student loans have sky rocketed to one trillion dollars last year, following a rise in the uptake of the loans; and for those, who took many, fell behind on their repayments. This can be attributed to the poor counselling when choosing or applying for the loan. Students usually fail to maximize government loans, which are accompanied by a fixed interest rate, before taking on private loans, which are accompanied with the high repayment interest rates and the implications that last for most of their lives, delaying investment on housing and other major things. Deferring of the loans by some students, who have not yet acquired jobs, is always costly, as the interest usually adds up; thus, one can pay double the principal amount borrowed.
Therefore, it is obvious that the large deductions from salaries of graduates are causing misery rather than what seemed to be a good investment. The sky rocketing interests leave employed graduates with no other choice, but to shelve other important social elements of their lives, such as family life and having children.

Facility Master Plan 2016
August 10, 2016
Over the next few months Community Hospital will be developing a Facility Master Plan (FMP). A FMP is a comprehensive plan for future facility and capital improvement. Having a FMP is very important for a number of reasons including the following:
• Plan for capital and facility needs to enable the provision for needed healthcare services in the future.
• Ensure the ability of our facilities to comply with future regulation.
• With proper planning we can lessen the risk of boxing ourselves in from department to department (For example, if a department develops a need to further expand in the years ahead, will they be able to do so or will they be boxed in?)
• Proper planning also enables a facility to be flexible to meet unforeseen changes and needed services in the future.
• With proper facility master planning an organization can strategically plan and also fund the FMP through long range capital budgeting.
The development of a FMP is not new for Community Hospital. Our last FMP was approved on November 1, 2007 and we completed all components of this plan with the recent remodel and renovation of the Harvest Café earlier this year, about 8 and ½ years after the 2007 plans approval. This plan contained the initial thoughts for what became a reality in Phase 1 (the new patient wing), Phase 2 (surgery, injection/infusion, the prairie view meeting rooms), Phase 2b (remodel and expansion of the radiology department, the ER entrance, lab draw room expansion, a sleep lab, and respiratory therapy), the Anderson Center for Radiation Oncology, and finally the remodel and renovation of the Harvest Café. The completion of this plan capped an impressive investment in our facilities to the tune of over $35 million. Though the final plans for each of these additions, renovations, and remodeling projects were never exactly the same as what was planned for in the 2007 FMP, they enabled us to properly stage, fund, and plan for all of these wonderful improvements.
We are beginning the process of developing the 2016 FMP in August and expect this process to continue until an anticipated Board approval in the October/November timeframe. To that end, we have selected Patrick Leahy and the architectural firm of Holland Basham to complete this process. Holland Basham was selected from a group of 3 firms, with all of these firms having professionals with experience on projects at our facility since 2007. Patrick was a lead architect on the team that developed our 2007 FMP. As a part of this process departments throughout the facility as well as the McCook Clinic will be involved by providing valuable input as to future facility needs in order to enhance our ability to provide excellent local access to care well into the future.
We believe there will need to be changes made to the specialty clinic due to expected growth in specialists and challenging and changing provider-based clinic regulations. The McCook Clinic continues to grow and work to expand local access to care as well. These are just a few of the areas that will be addressed. We need to plan for the future as best we can and do so by asking these questions:
• What services will be needed in the future?
• How can we create facilities that are adaptable and provide room for continued growth?
• How can we assure that our facilities meet the regulatory requirements for the years ahead?
It is important to know that just because a plan is being developed it doesn't mean that we are launching immediately into a big project, but we have to plan and work to meet the healthcare needs of our region and we will respond to these needs in the most efficient and effective way possible.

By Jean-Baptiste Aymard and Patrick Laude
A comprehensive introduction to the life and work of the preeminent expositor of
perennial philosophy.
The first book in English devoted to the religious philosopher Frithjof Schuon (1907-1998) to appear since his death, this biography also provides an analysis of his work and spiritual teachings. Relying on Schuon's published works as well as unpublished correspondence and other documents, the authors highlight the originality of Schuon's life and teachings in terms of his consistent focus on esoterism, defined as the inner penetration of sacred forms and spiritual practices vis-à-vis the religio perennis, the eternal wisdom that lies at the core of all sacred paths. Schuon's life, they argue, is a quest for the inner meaning of religious experience, as is indicated by his connections to Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, and Native American Shamanism. Spiritual seekers from all backgrounds will appreciate this comprehensive study of this towering figure of comparative religion.

Book Review
Frithjof Schuon: Life and Teachings
Review by Harry Oldmeadow
Published in Sophia: The Journal of Traditional Studies
(Washington DC) 11.1, Summer 2005, 197-204.
Some years ago Seyyed Hossein Nasr wrote of the Integrated Man of Sufism:
His thoughts and actions all issue from a single centre and are based on a series of
immutable principles. He has been cured of that hypocrisy in which most men live and
therefore, since the veil of otherness which hides the inner light in the majority of men has
been removed, like the sun he reflects his light wherever he happens to be. In him, the
Islamic ideal of unifying the contemplative and active ways is realized… And because by
virtue of his becoming integrated he reflects Divine Unity and has become the total
theophany of the Divine Names and Qualities, he acts and lives in such a manner that there
is a spiritual fragrance and beauty about all he does and says. Somehow he is in touch with
that barakah which runs through the arteries of the Universe. (Sufi Essays, 1972, p.50)
Such a one was Frithjof Schuon (1907-1998), whose life and teachings are the subject of
the volume at hand. Readers of this journal will need no introduction to Schuon, at once
the most sublime and the most profound metaphysician of our era. However, Schuon
covered his own life with the cloak of anonymity, maintaining a deliberate obscurity
which ensured that only those prepared to make the necessary effort could seek him out.
Like his predecessor René Guénon, Schuon had no interest in noisy public acclaim, nor
was he in any sense the worldy "intellectual" — quite the contrary. But now that Schuon
has departed this life it is meet and proper that two who knew him well, equipped with
the formidable qualifications that such a task demands, should furnish us with an
intellectual and spiritual biography of one of the most remarkable figures of the modern
era. The present work comes in the wake of a glittering collection of essays gathered
together by Aymard and Laude in Frithjof Schuon: Les Dossiers H (2002), an anthology
as yet only available in French.
The book is structured in four parts: a biographical narrative and a "spiritual
portrait", followed by essays on "Esoterism and Tradition" and "Metaphysical and
Spiritual Aesthetics". One cannot speak of the "evolution" of Schuon"s work in the
normal sense: his intuitive and seemingly spontaneous understanding of metaphysics
marked his work with a rare authority from the outset, and the "immutable principles"
remained implacable from beginning to end. Nonetheless, there is a certain pattern of
development and of unfolding in his work, traced in the first two chapters by M. Aymard.
The first, " A Biographical Approach", provides a more or less chronological sketch of
Schuon"s life, tracking his intellectual and spiritual trajectory, and giving some account
of the various influences which exerted themselves at different times. Among the many
fascinating things in this narrative we find vignettes of his family life and friendships
with such figures as Titus Burckhardt, Martin Lings and Marco Pallis, his wartime
experiences, the early and potent attraction of the East and the formative influence of
Vedanta, the changing and sometimes difficult material circumstances of his outer life,
his meetings not only with the masters of the Sufi tradition to which he was ineluctably
drawn and towards which he was propelled, so to speak, by his revulsion for the modern
West, and his meeting with scholars and representatives of the many religious traditions
about which he was to write so prolifically and with such sovereign authority over half a
century — among them, Louis Massignon, Fathers Anthony Bloom and Sophronios,
Inayat Khan, Lhobsang Lhalungpa, Swami Ramdas, Shojun Bando, Thomas Yellowtail,
and Shaykh Hassan of Morocco. Here and there we catch fleeting glimpses of some of
the younger men who came within Schuon"s orbit and who, in turn, were to play their
own part in unveiling the spiritual treasuries of the world"s traditions — Leo Schaya,
Joseph Epes Brown and Jean Biès to mention a few. More sustained treatment is given to
several biographical threads: the decisive sojourn in North Africa and the initiation into
the order of Shaykh Ahmad 'al Alawi, Schuon's relations with René Guénon; the tangled
and sometimes unhappy interactions of various French Sufi groups; his extraordinary
engagement with the Plains Indians of North America to whose primordial heritage he
was so strongly attracted and which he himself did so much to illuminate at a time when
many Westerners could only look at such cultures through the grotesque distortions of
racial and progressivist prejudices. There is also a useful conspectus of the whole written

I am a big fan of all the seasons, except winter, and that's really only because I hate being cold. I'd even go so far as to call it a deep dark loathing of being cold. Lucky for me, winter is still a little ways away, and I can just focus on the lovely weather we're having now! There are a few things that become really very pleasant in London in the autumn, and I'm looking forward to them!
Strolls through the Park
There are so many parks in London and watching all the trees change color is delightful! I do find something really pleasant about strolling through a park in the crisp autumn weather with a flask of tea and just taking it all in. Green Park, St. James's Park, Hampstead Heath, Crystal Palace Park, Holland Park… there are so many places to go!
Museums, Museums, Museums
With the colder weather comes a few more rainy days, and for me, that means spending time in museums. London has some really amazing museums and galleries, and I am determined to get to quite a few of them this Autumn. Plus, the tourist season has lulled, so it tends to be a bit quieter, doesn't it?
Hot Chocolate
Just like I've been on a mission to find the best chai latte in London and the best veggie burger in London, Autumn means finding the best hot chocolate! Whether I'm out exploring, or curled up on the couch watching a film, a nice hot chocolate is the cherry on top, and it's definitely my mission to find a really great cup!
Apple Picking
I used to do this with my godparents every single year when I was young! We'd spend the morning on a farm, and then spend the evening baking apple pies and drinking apple cider. Have you ever had apple cider? It's delicious, especially when it's warmed up! Anyway, I've been wanting to go apple picking for a little while now, but I actually found some farms where you can pick your own fruit. Technically they're not in London, but there are some pretty nearby! It's the perfect Autumn activity, and one where you can enjoy the fruits of your labor (pun 100% intended… eek!)!
Guy Fawkes
Slightly different than the others, but this will be the first time that I actually have the 5th of November off! To be fair, there have only be 2 other times I've been in the UK to celebrate it, but both of those times I missed out on the bonfires and the fireworks because I was working. Sad! This year, however, I'm ready to get my Guy on, admire a big old bonfire and then watch some fireworks.
I'm also a big fan of cozy jumpers and scarves, so I'm gonna stock up on those in the meantime! Come winter, I'm not gonna want to leave the house at all, so I'd better do these things while it's still bearable!
Is there anything you're really looking forward to doing this Autumn?

What makes you a psychopath or an extreme altruist?
Psychopathy and altruism seem to be poles apart, but in her book The Fear Factor Abigail Marsh suggests how one can explain the other
THE clearest case of a budding psychopath that Abigail Marsh ever met was 12-year-old button-nosed Jamie. He stole, set fires, and ran a profitable loan shark operation from his bedroom; when his schoolmates ran late with payments, he threatened to shoot fireworks at them.
Then there was 14-year-old Amber, who killed her pet guinea pig, shoplifted designer goods and threatened to burn down the house as her family slept.
Marsh has scanned the brains of dozens of such children in a bid to understand what …

Does curiosity kill the cat??
Does caution save the cat??
Life can be a fine-line walk of both caution & curiosity… huh?!
Just thinking out loud aka Friday Morning Musings aka up earlier/unable to sleep too well due to sad news late night…(i.e. news that feels like you've been punched in the gut; initially hurts, but then spurs you on… and becomes a mighty motivator!!… to cling to compassion, and dig deep, fight the fine fight, etc.)
my stubbornness (and my spirituality)
aka a mind not easily manipulated…(a non-conformist to the so-called popular course of action/thought)…must be such a curiosity to the so-called intelligent and influential.
(yep, in some realms, am hated for my beliefs aka choosing to live compassion as fully as possible at this moment in my life/historic stream of time/aka ending of the framework of human society)
Caution: I am not a push-over!
Any "real" threat to my spirituality will be pushed away.
My closest ones/loved ones… know either "accept" compassion and "respect" life… and my personal dedication (to the True God of Compassion…and to HIGH compassion standards)… or for the sake of my spiritual well-being have to cautiously keep any non-accepters at a (safe) distance.
For mind (and other) safety reasons… physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually…
Have to be legitimately cautious…(not paranoid)…I will not allow my personal compassion and agape love for fellow-fragile-life to be corrupted!!
My caring will not be consumed by apathy.
My compassion will not be consumed by indifference.
My mind will not be manipulated by hate nor violence nor threats thereof.
My compassion fitness will not succumb to inaccurate knowledge and inactivity.
My (spiritual) mind will not be bribed by (counterfeit) love nor material gifts nor offers thereof.
My mindset.
Exactly, my mind is set.
1/5/18 @ 7:10 a.m.
If anyone chooses (uncoerced) …freely wishes..to join the mind gym… that's where i am and will remain for life! I closely associate with the (serious, dedicated, spiritual athletes) compassion-fit.
(U fit??)
There's work to be done… every day… to maintain, sustain, and progress.
I am serious.
I will not waiver.
"Rocking" it (compassion-truth) everyday…UH-HUH!!!:)
1/5/18 @ 7:07 p.m. published.

Jesus withdraws to a deserted place after learning about John's murder. The disciples, overwhelmed with so many hungry people, seek out Jesus who, in spite of or perhaps because of his pain, reacts with compassion.
The miracle of the "Feeding of the 5,000" is important enough to appear in all four gospels and follows the mustard seed teaching. It's a story that reaches us today, indoctrinated into powerlessness by political definitions of what power is.
Jesus' disciples are given what they need to continue his work. In Jesus' alternative reality, even the most meager resources mimic mustard seed and grows to overtake the powers and principalities of this world with compassion until every deserted place is where the weak are served and healed, because compassion is the law of the land. When we need it, God will give us the power to work for good in the world and it will be enough.

A new book edited by Dr. Cindy Gunn, director of the Faculty Development Center and associate professor of English at the American University of Sharjah, documents techniques used by the university's educators to improve student learning.
Enhancing Teaching and Learning in Higher Education in the United Arab Emirates: Reflections from the Classroom, published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing, is a collection of 15 essays focusing on the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) and its impact on the professors and students involved in SoTL research projects.
Using a reflective and scholarly approach, the authors from all four colleges at AUS, explore and reveal innovative teaching methods used in their classrooms to address students' needs and ensure comprehension of the assigned material.
A theme in the book, Gunn noted, is the focus on both the professors' and the students' reflections in isolating teaching methods that are more conducive to learning. Gunn explained that the book highlights the importance of taking risks in the classroom, using new teaching techniques, and employing students' feedback in order to create better learning environments, and ultimately better learning outcomes.
Gunn noted that the contents also emphasize keeping students engaged, with examples including the use of technology, games, and active learning techniques. It also considers the challenges faced by educators in various fields, such as students' attitudes toward homework, the difficulties inherent in teaching controversial topics, and the delayed relevance of material covered in classes, Gunn said.
But she added that the chapters were meant to go beyond simply describing practices educators found successful. Rather, she noted, as with any form of scholarship, they illustrate how the findings supplement trends in existing literature, and provide rationale for favoring particular methods across many disciplines, including English, biology, chemistry, math, business, engineering, architecture and design.
Gunn said her conviction that reflecting on teaching and researching the impact of the techniques and methods employed in the classroom has the capacity for continual improvement for both the professors and students encouraged her to pursue this project.

The large leaved variegated ivy 'Sulphur Heart' has bright gold and lime green variegations that are invaluable for bringing splashes of light to a dark shady wall. In light shade, mingle it with winter jasmine and Cotoneaster horizontalis for a plant association with even greater variety and all year round interest. 'Sulphur Heart' clings to brick walls and similar textured surfaces so long as its aerial roots can get a grip. Splash walls with water to help new plants start clinging, but don't grow where the mortar is unsound or the roots may cause damage. The Royal Horticultural Society has given it its Award of Garden Merit (AGM).

Our world is cracked and shattered today by violence which happened last night in Las Vegas. Nobody knows why the shooter did what he did, no rational person would do such a thing. Is there an explanation for this? Yes, there is evil in our world and we can't ignore it. Men are evil, Satan is evil and yet people are wanting to take guns away from law-abiding citizens. The shooter bought his guns legally with FBI background checks, what snapped? What happened?
Honestly, we will not know for sure. His brother said that he doesn't know why or what could have brought this on. Nobody knows for sure, except God. The shooter has been judged by Him and is likely being punished in hell right now. Taking a life which is made in the image of God is not something that God dismisses. A Christian could not have done this, so he is likely in hell and will be for eternity.
We should be seeking God's strength and His Presence today, not trying to take the rights of people to own guns. It is true that an owner of many guns is the person responsible for this tragedy, but what started this or what set him on the path to do such a thing…nobody knows except for God. I know that I am repeating myself, but it is so shocking until it is hard to understand or even get your mind to begin to comprehend.
Pray for the families who have family members injured or recovering or even killed in this horrible tragedy. This is not the time to place blame or seek revenge on law-abiding citizens because of the act of one person whose sanity snapped in some way.
Seek out Jesus and look to God's Word for comfort in times like these.

Killer Iranian Regime Joins UN Women's Rights Panel
Just days after publicly suspending Libya from its Human Rights Council, the United Nations on Friday made way for another dubious member into the Commission on the Status of Women – the Islamic Republic of Iran.
This is the same regime that beats women to a bloody pulp if they do not wear a veil in public.
Kamangir reported on this attack back in 2007.
Of course, the American media ignored this story at the time.
Iran Press News released this photo on the 2007 crackdown on unveiled women.
They beat the women democracy protesters too.
Now this killer regime will be part of the UN's women's rights panel.
And, not a peep from our far left president.

Angelenos Doug Billings and Tracy Garner are going to get hitched. Two days before the wedding, the four men in the wedding party – Doug, Doug s two best amigos Phil Wenneck and Stu Price, and Tracy s sibling Alan Garner – jump into Tracy s father s dearest Mercedes convertible for a 24-hour stag gathering to Las Vegas. Phil, a wedded secondary teacher, has the same development level as his understudies when he s with his buddies. Stu, a dental practitioner, is stressed over everything, particularly what his controlling sweetheart Melissa considers. Since she objects to customary male holding ceremonies, Stu needs to deceive her about the stag, he advising her that they are going on a wine sampling visit in the Napa Valley. Notwithstanding, he means on in the long run wedding her, against the guidance and wishes of his companions. What's more, Alan is by all accounts ignorant of what are viewed as the social graces of the western world.

Every year has to end, and we're usually more than grateful for the chance for a new beginning – even if it's just in our heads. After the quiet, contemplative Christmas season, some people like to stay cozy and warm, while the others say goodbye to the year with a wild, boozy party. Those of you who like to finish out the year with a trip may face more than your fair share of difficulties in finding a destination: London, Berlin and Paris have long since sold out of affordable flights and accommodations. But that's no problem, since we've sleuthed out a few European destinations that are still up for grabs where you can enjoy a unique and memorable New Year's celebration! … Read More
Beyond London: 5 English cities worth a visit
There's no question, London is an unbelievably beautiful city that everyone should visit at least once. There's also a good reason why the nearby university towns of Cambridge and Oxford are such popular tourist destinations. But it's also worth your while to venture farther afield to see what England has to offer. Away from the London hub, England has no shortage of beautiful, exciting and unusual cities to explore. The following five cities are worth a visit and are sure to impress you with their unique character. … Read More
Cycling around the world – bicycle tours for leisure travelers
As someone once said: "Having a bicycle is the closest thing there is to have wings." These days, a bicycle is much more than just a piece of sports equipment or a means to get from point A to point B, it has become an essential part of a lifestyle, the "slow bicycle movement." And it's not just for workplace commuting that people are reaching for their bicycles; travelers too, are reveling in this pleasurable mode of transportation, both for long cycling trips as well as easy little tours.
Many people shy away from multi-day bicycle tours, maybe because they don't have a fully-equipped high tech bicycle, or because they don't think they're fit enough – but they couldn't be more wrong! It doesn't have to be the Tour de France, there are plenty of routes that are perfectly suited for casual cyclists. In this post, we'll tell you what makes traveling by bike such an incredible experience, what you should look out for along the way, and even take the opportunity to give you suggestions for the best routes! … Read More
5 Everyday surprises you'll experience on your trip to India
Some surprises are good, and some are a bit less so. Whatever else might be said about the country of India, one thing certainly rings true, it's a land of undeniable surprises. If you're planning a trip to India, we guarantee the following five things will make your jaw drop!
1. Traffic
On the streets of India, you'll witness tuk tuks, cows, expensive sports cars, donkeys, artfully painted vans and motorcycles packed with entire families and seemingly operating against the laws of physics, all competing for space.
In general, traffic functions very differently to what we expect in the West. In India, legal regulations are viewed more as well-intentioned guidelines. But the formal rules of the road and what actually happens on the streets have exceedingly little in common. It often seems as if he who honks loudest wins. The "No Honking" signs, a common sight in areas of high congestion, seem almost ironic against the ear-splitting backdrop of the frenetic traffic. One way streets are commonly used as regular two-way thoroughfares, in particular by the small, agile tuk tuks. Rickshaw drivers are a common, almost iconic part of traffic in India. … Read More
Canada – where untouched nature and lively cities meet
Canada is all the rage these days. And not just as a running gag for many Americans who have threatened to emigrate since the start of the Trump presidency. Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, known for his good looks and magnetic charisma, has managed to become somewhat of an internet sensation, warming the hearts of people from all across the world as a positive example of tolerance, diversity and light-hearted diplomacy.
Clearly this country, the world's second largest by landmass, is worth a closer look. The First Nations arrived first, followed by the Inuit, the French, and the English, all of whom have shaped Canada's diversity. We've tried our hand at crafting a little overview and some travel tips for this gigantic North American country, with its stunning nature and multicultural society! … Read More

By our Poetry Correspondent, Alice Chirgwin-Jacka
The restlessly creative poetic genius of Colinsey Road, Penzance -- 'Odgo (the 'dg' is pronounced as in 'Stodge') Semmens -- has, following a recent visit to The Buttery at the top of Morrab Road, been inspired to pick up his pen again.
As the Roundup receives thousands of requests for his works each day, we are pleased to be able to publish this latest work, which he wrote before being rushed into hospital for emergency treatment in respect of his sky-high cholesterol levels.
Cornish Fare
When St Peter, 'ungry at the gate, sets down to take a bite,
It is the noble pasty on which 'ee sets 'is sight.
Fer pasty is a seemly meal to take at any time,
An it duh go down proper wi' a drop of Adam's wine.
When Mawther asks ee tuh come in tuh drink a cup o' tay
You'll get a slice of 'eavy cake and that'll make yer day.
'Er 'eavy is the lightest cake that you could come to know
'An you'll be glad for one more slice when it is time to go.
But, there is one vision in my mind -- a picture clear and steady
An image pure of Cornwall's best - for which I am ever ready.
An' if you're Cornish too, my friend, you'll recognise my dream --
A slice or two of saffron cake an' a 'uge git dolp o' cream.
Do you sometimes suffer from pains in the back passage? You need suffer no longer! Petula Penberthy, who herself suffered excruciating agony for five decades, has invented her own wonder potion to banish those pains to the past for ever more!!
Pictured here on the left, Petula Penberthy (wearing a hat of her own design!) suffered badly from both pains and unwelcome smells for many a year.
Desperation led her to experiment with many a substance in order to overcome the fearsome pain and the ferocious odours, which her tortured body emitted day and night.
Release eventually came one moonlit night when she stumbled upon two rutting gay badgers out Nancledra way. She has never spoken of what happened that night or of how she made her miraculous discovery. However she how has a menagerie of some 4,000 gay badger pairs and is producing the 'stuff' by the litre.
It works and, now with a sprightly step in her gait, Petula Penberthy is a living testimony to the efficacy of her "Gay Badger's do's". It is now available to you for the give-away price of only £450 per litre (to be externally applied twice a day - wearing protective gloves!) Available for sale exclusively at Tregenza's of Greenmarket, Penzance.

Diary notes for Readers. We are frequently asked what is coming up next by our readers, in particular by five persistent folk, who, apparently speaking from the cramped confines of a telephone box, describe themselves as 'Cornish MPs'. The Roundup will be investigating their claim to be "representing Cornwall".
For the present, the members of the Roundup's 24 person Editorial Council working with Mr Sylvanus Penhaul are content for it to be known that the next three items - in order - will be a work from the great 'Odgo, the tale of the Lamorna Bus Shelter fiasco and the 'English' Heritage story's unexpected, but pleasing, outcome.

The Roundup has achieved enormous success in bringing together lonely people who are looking for love in West Cornwall.
Indeed, following the international attention the Roundup has received after its perceptive coverage of the Eurovision Song Contest, it may well be that some of our international readers might like to make contact with some of the special people we present today.
We do also invite international readers to view our older posts covering such interesting items as politics with insightful articles on Bush/Putin, Sarkozy and with special focuses on foreign embassies in Relubbus ; culture with a particular emphasis on poetry and music; and a host of other fascinating offerings including our famous FREE dating facility - Lonely Hearts. Don't forget to POST A COMMENT before you go.
We make no charge for our Lonely Hearts service and simply regard its free provision as being another hallmark of socially responsible journalism. Here are some more folk who are looking for love... from you?
Willy Bosiddick (32) is a well-known milkman from Rosudgeon, the gay capital of West Cornwall. Despite living in this "den of Sodom", as it has been designated by a succession of Methodist fundamentalist preachers, Willy is firmly heterosexual in orientation. He is, in fact, also married with 7 children. Having been married to the same person since the age of 16, he now wishes to experiment further, though only with willing single women, as he fervently insists, revealing a concealed poetic bent, "Despite coming from 'ere (Rosudgeon), I ain't bleddy queer!"
Willy insisted on being photographed wearing this papier mache head so that his wife, Rosemary, wouldn't recognise him. As he says "If she duh see this and duh knaw i's me, I'll get bleddy 'ell." We did try to warn him... Ladies, if you are interested in a man who claims to be the soul of discretion itself, then Box 5682 is the one for you.
Horton Baragwaneth (29) is a fully qualified dentist with his own surgery in Zennor. Horton is a sensitive man, who was badly hurt by an affair some years ago with a girl who worked in the Warrens shop in Market Jew Street. Having been single for some years now -- after his unfortunate affair -- Horton is ready to try again with someone who could share the interests he has acquired in the interim.
Horton is a collector. He has never thrown a tooth away and now has 1,769 samples, all labelled. Branching our from dentistry, he also has one of the largest stool samples in West Cornwall, thanks to the specially adapted patients' toilet in his surgery. He eagerly admits that he is only 27 away from his first 1,000 in this collection. Ladies, if you would like to share Horton's life and his collections, write in to Box 4571.
Irene Upton O'Good (42) is an Irish potter working in Sancreed. Irene took up pottery during her second stretch in prison. Shy about past achievements, she will not say what she was in for, beyond saying that "it will be the last time that bastard ever screws another woman". She is a member of the Sancreed branch of Pyromaniacs Anonymous.
A gifted virtuoso castanets player, Irene is devoted to developing her artistic side. She does not wish to return to prison and is therefore looking for a quiet relationship with a man (or woman, a taste acquired in prison) who can offer a home to her and her thirty two pet weasels. Box 7629
Terry/Teri Angwin (25) is a tranvestite electrician from Hayle. A bearded, 25 stone, club-footed hulk of a man, he is able -- in the evenings -- to transform himself into the dream young woman on the left and assumes the name Teri.
Terry plays in the back row for the Cornish Pirates rugby team, none of whom know about his feminine side, although Terry tells us that he had a hot night with one of them when he had put on his make-up to become Teri. Clearly a complex character, Terry/Teri would like a relationship with an understanding man, who would accept Terry's life as an electrician and a rugby player. Box 5683
Madron Pengelly (56) is a butcher from St Just, who was divorced from his second wife just a year ago, after she discovered him in the cellar with their Labrador dog.
Madron is a keen member of the Old Cornwall Society, a member also of two different male choirs, and is a bellringer. He still plays with the Meccano set he received as boy of ten and enjoys all card and board games.
He is pictured here with his organ, his favourite possession, and would like to find someone new in his life who will enjoy his organ as much as he does. As a bachelor he lives on shop pasties and Jelbert's ice cream. His dream will be complete if he can find "a good woman, 'oo can cook proper!" Box 5673
Gaspar Ruiz (76) is a former Cardinal from the USA, who retired to Cornwall following certain allegations. Conspicuous in Tremethick Cross because he still wears all the regalia of his former office, Gaspar is on orders to keep a low profile. He has joined the local Men's knitting circle and has also joined the queue for a place in the Tregavarah Bowls Club.
A keen pipe smoker -- getting through two tins of Dunhill's Early Morning pipe tobacco each day -- Gaspar is keen to form a pipe-smoking club in Tremethick Cross. He is keen to hear from anyone -- man or woman -- who would like to join his club. He would be particularly keen to hear from anyone else in Tremethick Cross who wears -- or would like to wear -- clerical garb like him. Box 5734.

New Camp Forrest Book Available at The Book Shelf
New Camp Forrest Book Available at The Book Shelf
Monday, June 13, 2016
The Images of America: Camp Forrest by Elizabeth Taylor is now available for purchase at Tullahoma's only used book store, The Book Shelf located at Northgate Mall. Because of their non-profit organization, The Book Shelf cannot sell at retail cost but suggests a donation of $15.00. Arcadia Publishing published the new Camp Forrest book.
Meet Author, Elizabeth Taylor at the next Chamber Coffee on Tuesday, June 28 at South Jackson Civic Center. Mrs. Taylor will also be available that afternoon on June 28 at 2:00pm for a book signing at The Book Shelf.
Camp Forrest was a training, induction, and combatant prisoner-of-war (POW) facility located on the outskirts of Tullahoma, Tennessee. It was a self-sustaining city where over 70,000 soldiers were stationed and approximately 12,000 civilians were employed throughout World War II.
In 1942, the camp transitioned to an enemy alien internment camp and was one of the first civilian internment camps in the United States. By the middle of 1943, it had transitioned into a POW camp and housed primarily German and Italian prisoners. After the war ended, the base was decommissioned and dismantled in 1946.
In 1951, the area was recommissioned and expanded into what is known now as Arnold Engineering Development Center in Tullahoma.
The images within the book provide a glimpse into the effects and realities of a global war on American soil.
About the Author
Elizabeth Taylor has a doctorate in public administration and has researched the many impacts of Camp Forrest both abroad and on the home front. She currently maintains the Camp Forest website (www.CampForrest.com) and welcomes individuals to contact her with stories, comments, and photographs. The images included in this title were obtained from the National Archives and Records Administration and private collections.
For more information on purchasing Images of America: Camp Forrest, contact The Book Shelf at (931) 273-8001 or visit The Book Shelf's website.

Hockey Team Wins Against Holy CrossBy Haider A. Hamoudi
Sports Editor
The women's hockey team triumphed against its Holy Cross competitors by a score of 2-1 last Wednesday night in the Johnson Athletic Center.
The game was controlled by the Engineers from the outset. Virtually the entire first period was played in the Holy Cross zone, and the Engineer defenders did an excellent job keeping the puck from crossing the blue line.
Unfortunately, MIT was unable to score any goals in the period, despite two power plays and plenty of opportunities. This was partly caused by the excellent play of the Holy Cross goalkeeper, but it also must be noted that the Engineers did not shoot very well throughout the period.
Until forward Tiina Hameenanttila '94 nearly scored on a breakaway with 10 seconds left in the period, the Engineers never really threatened the Holy Cross goal, which is quite surprising considering how long the Engineers had controlled the puck.
The second period was a much better one for the Engineers. They opened the period immediately with a near score by Shari Schuchmann G after only 1 minute, 53 seconds had elapsed. Schuchmann nearly scored again minutes later after receiving a beautiful pass from Aradhana Narula G, but the goalkeeper of Holy Cross again made a nice save.
Nevertheless, the shots kept coming, and with 10:53 remaining Jill Angle scored the first goal of the night. But the Engineers were not satisfied with only a one goal lead. With about five minutes remaining, signs of frustration were beginning to show in the Holy Cross defense. The Crusaders had sustained nearly a period's worth of punishment from the MIT offense, but they had managed to hold the Engineers to only one goal.
This suddenly changed, however, when Hameenanttila scored with 2:53 remaining. The Engineers almost scored again less than half a minute later after a Helen Grainer breakaway, and then defender Esther Jesurum G was almost able to take the puck in and score herself, but both shots were successfully saved. The period ended with the score 2-0, but Holy Cross was lucky that the lead was not larger.
When the third period opened, it seemed unlikely that Holy Cross was going to mount a serious comeback. The Engineers maintained pressure on the Holy Cross goal early, and the puck almost never reached the Engineer zone.
Sloppy play, however, resulted in a Holy Cross goal with 4:51 left in the final period. Immediately afterwards it appeared as if the game might be tied when a number of shots were taken on the MIT goal, but with about three minutes left, the puck was brought down to the other end of the ice, and it never left until the game ended with MIT ahead 2-1.
