Hi Julie, firstly thanks for your lovely compliment on my piccies it made my day :)
I love these things and your blog so i will add to follow if there is a button.
These are beautiful, i need to explore more.
I find that using white card and placing the item on it then moving it slightly with hand beneath it and then tipping it slightly to get the right view, works for me in photo's but i am not an expert and i am usually not that careful lol.
Hugs June xxx

Hi, my name is Kali, and I am a ColourPop addict. Seriously, I think I need to go to makeup counseling over this company. From their branding to their constant new products and sales, I am absolutely obsessed. My most recent find is their Blotted Lips. After just a week of wearing them, I have officially declared them my lipstick of the summer.
ColourPop has pretty much ever lip formula you can think of, but this one is unlike any other. What so neat about Blotted Lips is that they leave a sheer, stain-like look on the lips with one layer, but they can easily be built up to look like a lipstick. I've been wearing them both ways and loving them.
I originally went to the site to try ColourPop's Ultra Blotted Lips, which are somewhat of a lip gloss meets an oil. I've heard mixed reviews, but I wanted to give them a try for myself. Unfortunately, they were all sold out during the free-shipping sale, so I'll have to save them for another day. I'm glad that I stumbled upon the lipstick formula though.
I picked up the shades [from left to right] Sucker, Ice Cube, Drip, and Candy Floss. They're not exactly the most luxe packaging, but it gets the job done. Each one is only $5 each (!!!), plus they were having a flash sale, so I got three of them for $4 instead. That's on top of free-shipping and getting a free birthday eyeshadow.
This formula had been catching my eye for a while, and I timed up my buying perfectly. Not to mention that all of their products are gluten free, so I don't have to worry about having an allergic reaction. While there are deep purple and red shades, I was a little afraid to try them. Now that I love the formula, I'll definitely be stocking up on some bolder shades.
These swatches are three-layers, just to show how well the build up. When you put on the first layer, it looks like you sucked on a lollipop, but in a chic and sophisticated way. Each of the colors are extremely wearable and work with casual and dressy looks. I actually wore one of them with nothing but BB Cream and some mascara and it looked great.
They fade equally as beautiful too. Some lipsticks leave a giant ring around the mouth, but these seem to fade pretty evenly. They're not transfer-proof, but they're simple to reapply. That makes them the perfect no-fuss, summer product in my opinion.
These might not look the flashiest or most expensive, but they are top-shelf products. I love that the brand makes affordable makeup that actually works, so that everyone can get in on the fun. Trust me when I say that you need at least one of these shades in your summer makeup bag.
Have you tried ColourPop? What are your favorite products? I'd love to hear about other affordable brands that you like as well!

About Us
In 2014, the National Space Technology Strategy (NSTS) and Space Innovation and Growth Strategy (IGS) stressed the need for a low-cost domestic launch vehicle in the UK. The development of such a launcher would release the potential of the UK Space Industry and solidify the UK as a global leader in this sector. The current largest obstacle faced by the industry is affordable and reliable access to space. The miniaturisation of technology has created a boom in the small satellite market. The UK has emerged as one of the leading producers of satellites. Unfortunately the UK is currently dependent on other governments and international companies to get these satellites into operational orbits.
"Access to space is a barrier to growth for UK companies as well as a commercial opportunity. The ability of UK companies to secure timely launch slots is decreasing and launch costs are increasing, particularly for satellites to low Earth orbit (around 80% of all satellites)." IGS 2014-2030 Space Growth Action Plan
Tranquility Aerospace Ltd has been working to remove this dependence by building the UKs first reusable small satellite launch vehicle. The demonstrator Devon Zero is providing proof of concept and verification of key technologies in the Devon rocket series. The Devon One is a low cost reusable launcher which will be both a suborbital vehicle and also the first stage of the Devon Two, the launch vehicle that is able deliver small satellites into low earth orbit.

The European Commission's Emergency Response Coordination Centre (ERCC) is facilitating the urgent provision of assistance to extinguish the forest fires raging in Sweden. Fire-fighting aircraft were offered by Italy, France and Spain to be deployed to the affected areas and five planes have been dispatched to Sweden.
So far these five aircarft have completed 120 water drops onto the burning areas, the equivalent of 660 tonnes of water.
On Sunday evening, Sweden requested assistance through the EU Civil Protection Mechanism to fight forest fires raging in the mid-eastern part of the country. The request triggered a rapid reaction from the ERCC which immediately alerted the civil protection authorities of all the countries participating in the Mechanism.
The ERCC is actively monitoring the forest fire risks and evolution across Europe. It uses national monitoring services and tools such as EFFIS (the European Forest Fire Information System) and satellite imagery to provide an overview of the situation in Europe.
The European Civil Protection Mechanism facilitates cooperation in disaster response among 31 European states: 28 EU Member States, Iceland, Norway and the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (which is currently renewing its membership). The participating countries pool the resources that can be made available to disaster-stricken countries all over the world. When activated, the Mechanism coordinates the provision of assistance inside and outside the European Union.

- Mystery Incorporated is not a continuation of Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! It is a complete reboot of the series.
- The episode was originally aired as a sneak peak on April 5, 2010; it officially aired on July 12, 2010.
- In standard continuity, the gang's surnames weren't revealed until more than ten years after their first appearance. In this series, they're already revealed in the opening theme song as credits.
- Vincent Van Ghoul is a reference to the warlock of the same name from the TV series The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo (with the likeness and voice of Vincent Price). In SDMI, he is a B-movie horror actor.
- Disguises: Shaggy and Scooby as female waitresses.
- Traps:
- Clues:
- "Zoinks" count: 1.
- "Jeepers" count:
- "Jinkies" count:
- In 2011, Scholastic published Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated: Beware the Beast From Below. It is the only SDMI book.
Cultural references
- One of the tourists (voiced by Jeff Bennett) following Velma resembles Don Knotts. Knotts appeared as himself on the TV series The New Scooby-Doo Movies.
- In the scene where the Slime Mutant corners Daphne by the door, the framing of their faces in the shot is an homage to Alien 3, where the Alien corners Ripley.
Animation mistakes and/or technical glitches
- The first time Shaggy and Scooby are in their disguises, Shaggy's eyebrows are red like his wig. Also, when Scooby complains about his skirt, his eyebrows are yellow, while also flashing black.
- When the gang awkwardly respond to Raffalo's not being paid well, their body movements don't completely match their voices.
Inconsistencies/continuity errors and/or goofs/oddities
- None of the people in Velma's tour group are actually tourists. Either they all decided to move there afterwards or they all just happened to be new in town. It's also possible that they had just never taken it before. However, the two that talk are credited as tourists.
- The Slime Mutant watches Fred and Daphne from the sewer, despite the fact Raffalo is still in school. The latter could take place in the evening, if it weren't for the fact the following transition from outside K-Ghoul still shows daylight.
- Before walking into Fruitmeir's, Daphne's carrying a purse around her arm which presumably contains Shaggy and Scooby's belongings, then when she enters, her handbag is gone and she's just holding said belongings.
- Shaggy and Scooby had to disguise themselves as waitresses, simply because Daphne and Velma "refused." Why are Shaggy and Scooby the only option, instead of Fred?
- A strange fact is that Franklin doesn't even know what his own dessert is made of, and the large storage room in the back of Fruitmeir's contains six barrels with radiation symbols on them, and many more smaller containers with that symbol. This is not explained.

Alphatian Wormhole Commuter Transport Systemby Jeff Daly
"When a people have peace and prosperity for too long, they can be sure some goober will come along and ruin it. Either he'll go and start a war, or he'll sink a heck of a lot of money into some weenie project. The nice thing about Emperor Alphas III's wormhole, is that it does free up a lot of the airspace around the major cities."
--Sage Malvulian speaking at a lecture in the Sundsvall University.
During the reign of Emperor Alphas III, a long peace held. As a result, society began to crumble. The old politicians found new ways to cheat the government out of more money. The youth of the day became interested only in their own hedonistic pleasures. It seemed that Alphatia had expanded its borders as much as possible, without major effort. The Emperor knew that something was needed to get the people focused. A major undertaking to divert lots of hitherto wasted energy.
He knew that war was out of the question. Past emperors would simply pick on Thyatis or some other barbarian kingdom...which had been fine for a time. But now the barbarians were learning too much from the Alphatians. Emperor Alphas III certainly did not want to go down in history as a Kralion X...often known nowadays as "The Inbred". No, he wanted a much greater legacy. Perhaps something as unimaginative as "The Great", but better would be something like "The Innovator" or "The Excellent".
And so it was that he began to consider powerful enchantments and what might be of benefit to society. His task was a daunting one. Alphatians, as magically powerful as they are, are not used to thinking of useful applications of magic. He pondered the wasteful, though ingenious, flying apparatuses which flew overhead every day. The many flying castles, towers, and ships, not to mention the multitude of carpets, brooms, and mortars and pestles, made the skies overhead cluttered and dark. The frequent collisions tended to be a problem too.
Emperor Kralion X had actually declared the skies above any major city to be off-limits to all but military vessels. That had gone over real well! Wizards fumed and seethed over the regulation. Alphatians, not being used to even their emperor being so bold as to regulate spellcasting, began to talk treason. Half a dozen Council members were ready to challenge the emperor to a duel. This was the situation which had lead that one to seek war...mainly as a diversion to domestic distress...
No, banning aerial traffic was not the way to build a legacy.
After much consulting with many top advisers, Emperor Alphas III declared a quest. The adventurer to bring forth a unique travelling vessel would inherit a king's ransom in gold. It mattered not that Alphas had not yet decided WHICH king would give up his ransom...the adventurer could be betrayed my legal or physical means, whichever became necessary.
Around this same time, high level wizards in Shraek began tentatively exploring the Dimension of Nightmares. One of them, Hulio the Archmagist, found a unique beast which he dubbed the "phase worm". He found that this worm had the extraordinary ability to change its own flesh structure during travel. At rest, it was soft and fleshy and of the general size and shape of a purple worm. It had a dull grey body with numerous sphincteral orifices. When moving, and its movement rate was incredible, its flesh would shimmer and change to a smooth, hard, blade-like quality. Finding the beast to be docile, Hulio used a light protective spell to enter the creature through one of its sphincter openings. Its biological systems were soft and cramped at rest, but would contract and pull back during travel, leaving an almost hollow interior. It occurred to him, for some reason, that this creature could be considered a unique travelling vessel.
The emperor was pleased with the presentation of the creature. He ordered 1000 of the worms to be captured and trained for use.
Slowly it dawned on him that this did not truly solve the transportation problem. Rather, it merely added to it.
So he ordered built, a vast wormhole network which would connect the major cities at various stations. The creatures would be used to travel from station to station.
Phase Worm/Astral Worm/Silver Worm
What no one realises actually, is that the phase worm is but the larval stages of a creature which looks like a silver cockroach. It is intelligent, and while not necessarily evil, will certainly be very angry if it ever escapes the control of its captors. The Alphatians maintain special spells of subjugation over the creatures now...but if there was ever a major calamity (ie, WotI) perhaps an even greater disaster could result...
Travel Shield Spell
This is a 2nd level spell which grants protection to the caster against the mucky interior of the phase worm. It grants very little else. Non- spellcasters unfortunately have to deal with the muck.
Commuter Stations
These stations are long in construction with vortices at either end. The phase worm speeds into the station through one vortex, coming to rest at a platform where the mages and their servants can board. As it slows down, its skin changes from sleek and steel-like, to soft and fleshy. Holes open allowing travellers to board. The mage in charge of the worm will then make a last call for boarders, and prod the worm into movement. It starts slow, but before it gets to the next vortex it is moving extremely fast.
Tickets are purchased in 100gp denominations. A portal is located at the entrance point which will not allow a person through without a purchased ticket.
The entering vortex automatically deducts 100gp from the ticket.
The Wormhole Network
One could, theoretically, go from any vortex to any vortex via the network. Floating guard stations within the wormholes help to ensure that no one does this. Permanent gates within a heavily guarded building in Sundsvall allow these guards to get to work everyday. Another major factor is that the worm "pilots" certainly want to be paid and will not attempt to circumvent the process. Finally, there are guards and devices stationed in the stops themselves which will attack without remorse anyone attempting to fly through a vortex without a worm.

WARNING! Not for Long Term Storage!
I had every intention of linking up to laxsupermom's Before Blogging Throwback link party. It's an awesome idea she came up with to help us showcase projects we did before we started blogging. So I thought I would link up my wedding dress and flowers. I pop the CD with our wedding photos on it into the computer and... nothing. "Do you want to burn to this disk?" -- aka. BLANK disk. I even downloaded some software that's supposed to recover lost files on CDs, but it found nothing. Nooooooo!!!
To be reasonable, this is probably not the end of the photos all together. The family members who took photos (we couldn't afford a pro photographer!) probably still have them... although hopefully they didn't move them to CDs!
1 comment:
Oh no! That's just awful! I know how upset I was when I lost most of the pics of our kitchen reno(a pin sheared off something technical in our external hard drive.) I can't even imagine how upset you are about losing your wedding photos! I'm so sorry to hear this. It's good that you'll have some from your family.ReplyDelete

The business risk landscape continues to evolve and has challenged the compliance and ethics efforts of organisations worldwide. PwC's 2018 State of Compliance Study shows how leading compliance and ethics organisations are prioritising cultural impact and embracing technology to increase their effectiveness.
The report shares the results of more than 825 respondents (including CCOs, CFOs, audit committee members and other compliance stakeholders) to see how satisfied they are with the effectiveness of their E&C programmes; what makes them effective; and how changes to the regulatory and business climate around the world are forcing them to evolve.
Compliance officers are grappling with an ever-more complicated risk landscape and ever-changing regulatory requirements. Their role in helping balance risk is growing in importance and complexity as their organisations address new watchdog threat vectors and seize new opportunities generated by technology and business innovation.
Shirley Machaba, Governance, Risk and Internal Audit Leader for PwC Africa, says: "Leading organisations are excelling in this environment by taking more-comprehensive approaches to compliance, as enabled by more information and better technology tools.
"As regulators become increasingly technology and data savvy, the compliance and ethics functions of organisations have to keep pace by using the best tools and information available to protect their organisations and to scan the horizon for new requirements, trends and risks."
This includes frequent updates to policies, ongoing training and communication as well as high levels of efficiency. Without a strong technological foundation to help compliance functions operate in real time, then these requirements are challenging, if not impossible.
Not sufficiently prepared
The new business environment has opened itself to new threat vectors, not least including successful whistle-blower programmes driven by watchdogs. But while there is a growing need for an ever-more agile and effective risk compliance programmes, the State of Compliance report found the startling fact that most businesses are only moderately prepared, and even if they wanted to increase their preparedness now, they lack the infrastructure to do so.
Given the high-stakes environment, this is not the most encouraging finding and makes a case for action on the part of companies. Technology is the primary means by which they are going to get ahead of these threats, but the survey found that most companies lack the sophisticated infrastructure required to support a modern compliance function.
Furthermore, finding resources with the right skill sets is challenging – particularly because workers increasingly require an understanding of technology, the business and compliance. According to the survey, a shortage of skills was, in fact, a top challenge to using technology to manage compliance risk; it was cited by 28% of respondents.
Nonetheless, with multiple new, highly motivated watchdogs now providing their own forms of oversight, the case for strengthening compliance risk management through technology is strong.
Leaders of the pack
PwC found in its report that a minority of organisations had what could be described as strong, relevant and effective compliance programmes. In fact, only 17% of businesses said they are very satisfied with the effectiveness of their compliance programmes. We call those respondents 'leaders'. 'Leaders' are driving forward by following progressive practices on all aspects of compliance risk management and by using information and technology to increase programme effectiveness.
"Other traits among the companies leading the pack in terms of compliance include business optimism, a strong business culture of ethics and compliance and they say their organisations derive significant value from their risk compliance," Machaba adds. 'Leaders' know they stand out, because the vast majority (85%) who call their compliance programmes very effective also rate their programmes well above average relative to the programmes of their peers. More than half (52%) also say their organisation is more innovative than their peers are. A large percentage (65%) rate their risk management internal audit programmes as highly valuable, suggesting strong risk cultures overall and contributions from all lines of defence within their organisations.
What effective compliance programmes do differently
'Leaders' take a more-comprehensive and current approach to compliance risk management as enabled by technology. The report identifies four ways in which 'leaders' execute differently:
1. Invest in tech-enabled infrastructure to support a modern, data-driven compliance function. 'Leaders' more often have various infrastructure elements and tools in place than do their peers. Specifically, they more often use data analytics tools, dashboards and continuous monitoring than their peers do.
2. Increase compliance-monitoring effectiveness through analytics and the use of technology. Two-thirds (66%) of 'leaders' use technology to monitor employees' compliance with ethics-and compliance-related policies and procedures. Differences between 'leaders' and others are also notable in fraud, gifts and entertainment, privacy, social media, and trade compliance, with a greater percentage of 'leaders' noting technology use at their organisations for at least intermittent monitoring in those areas.
3. Streamline policy management to increase responsiveness and boost policy and procedure effectiveness. 'Leaders' take several steps to strengthen their policy management. They more often than their peers keep their codes of conduct, policies, and procedures current and make them more easily accessible across their organisation.
4. Take advantage of information and technology to provide targeted, engaging, and up-to-date compliance training. 'Leaders' tend to address a wide array of risks in training and update their compliance training and communication programmes annually. Among 'leaders', compliance training starts at the top. Board training is an area in which all organisations can – and should – make more headway.
Effective compliance risk management must be grounded in strategy and business engagement. A strong strategic foundation –enabled by compliance technology and talent is more critical than ever in building programmes that boost the value that compliance brings, in managing risks stemming from the organisation's strategic objectives and in driving cost-effective compliance.

American University in Iraq Full of Kurds
Within the Kurdish region of Iraq Americans are welcome... The Kudrish they are so enthusiastic, they want to ask us all about the United States and speak English with you. They are just wonderful, I (Dawn Dekle ) feel very welcome here.Why was it we didn't give the Kurds their own state again? I mean they do more with their freedom than any of the rest we've tried to help. At this time 50% of the students in American University in the Kurdish region are female.
The Kurds, they rock.
Update: I missed the NPR link, added and also Dawn Dekle who is interviewed is the President of the University which is located in Sulaymaniyah.

Any thoughts why this transformer is stuck at 18 volts when I hook it up to a multimeter on the side which should be variable voltage? Could not get a modern MTH to run, it was stuck with bells and horn blowing and wouldn't get out of neutral. Works fine with my LW minus all the bells and horns. I believe these to not be very good transformers from what I've read, that they are just a beginner transformer but wondering if this was common and maybe an easy fix? Can they be reset somehow? Thanks in advance
There may be something wrong with your CW-80; but it may also be your voltmeter. Inside the CW-80 is a transformer with an 18-volt (RMS) secondary winding. The CW-80 controls the voltage that it puts out by switching on the connection between the transformer and the output terminal for only the last part of each voltage half-cycle, using a triac. The earlier the triac turns on in each half-cycle, the higher the voltage.
But it also has a network, comprising a 1-microfarad capacitor in series with a 10-ohm resistor, that shunts the triac. If the output is lightly loaded, this network can provide enough of a connection that the full voltage appears at the meter. This is especially true with the digital meters that are popular today; an old-fashioned analog meter works better. But a load like an incandescent lamp will give you the best result.

Reset the side for the variable voltage! It must be set at full power?

The MTH engine acted as though full juice was being put on it and no opening and closing the throttle changed its mind. When I hooked up the LW the engine ran fine. Does Lionel still exchange them if it was one of the CW80's they had problems with years ago?
Which terminal lugs are you using on the CW-80 ? There are two pair of lugs, one identified for track power(variable) and the other for accessory power(fixed). To "zero" the accessory power with the throttle at zero press and hold all three buttons(direction,bell,horn) then move the throttle up then back to zero while holding the three buttons down. This will zero out the accessory power.
However the CW-80 is not compatible with MTH engines, it uses a chopped sine wave versus a pure sine wave as the LW produces. Check the back pages of you engines "Owner's Manual" for a transformer compatibility list.

While it is literally true that the CW-80 and other voltage controllers, like dimmers for incandescent lamps, "chop" the waveform, that term usually would imply a rapid switching on and off, so that the average output voltage over a time short compared to the power-line cycle is proportional to the chopping duty cycle. The use of a fairly simple low-pass filter can do that averaging, resulting in very little distortion of the original sinusoidal waveform.
But what the CW-80 does is different, and it is usually called "phase control". The switching occurs just once in each half cycle, which results in a very mutilated waveform that would be impractical to clean up. It works satisfactorily for incandescent lamps, which respond very sluggishly to their input voltage and thus provide a sort of thermal averaging, but can be problematical for more complicated electronic loads like compact-fluorescent or LED lights--or modern toy trains.

A Survey of Alternation-Trading Proofs for Time-Space Lower Bounds
Kumar Shubham
Chennai Mathematical Institute.
Satisfiability has been one of the central problem to complexity theorist since its inception in 1971 in Cook's work on NP completeness. Though it has been widely believed to be intractable, no simultaneous linear time, logarithmic- space lower bound was known until recently. In 1997 Fortnow building on earlier work of Kannan, ruled out such an algorithm. Since then there has been notable progress with non-trivial lower bound. This talk will mention some of known lower bounds for time and space complexity of satisfiability on deterministic, nondeterministic model with random access and discuss how to achieve them. We conclude this article by extending Kannan's argument to address the power of nondeterministic log-space computation over unambiguous computation.

EXPORTS of milled rice surged by about 2,360 percent in the first six months of this year compared to 2009, after the government encouraged production of Cambodia's "white gold".
In the past six months, the government has spearheaded a raft of measures aimed at boosting the country's rice-export capacity.
Officials updated the national rice policy, doubled Rural Development Bank capital to US$36 million and scrapped licence requirements for exporters to spur development.
The government hopes to improve the quality of Cambodia's rice to increase exports to foreign markets, such as Europe. The measures so far appear to have had a marked effect.
Data released by the Ministry of Commerce's CamControl department showed that just 4,369 tonnes of milled rice was exported from January to June 2009.
But in the first half of this year, the Kingdom sent 107,291 tonnes of milled rice abroad – an increase of 2,356 percent. Exports were worth $13.438 million this half, up from $2.193 million in 2009.
Cambodian officials have welcomed the increase.
"Since the government encouraged development, we have seen [the sector] improve dramatically — in terms of both farming methodology and production capacity," said director of Information and Statistics Department at the ministry, Kong Putheara.
He said that last year, the government installed tax preferences for foreign investors, and that the European Union allowed more Cambodian rice to enter its markets, sparking growth.
President of the Cambodian Rice Millers' Association, Phou Puy, hailed the figures as a "starting point" for Cambodia to produced high-quality rice in line with neighbouring countries such as Thailand and Vietnam.
But he warned challenges were still ahead as companies sought footholds internationally.
"We don't know clearly about the market so we have to look for [buyers] and sell at lower prices to get the market share," he said. "Next year will be the time to export as much as we can."
A secretary of state for the Ministry of Agriculture, Chan Tong Ive, said that an open agricultural policy had changed business patterns for some farmers, who had shifted into intensive farming that upped yields.

Photoprotective Activity of Propolis
Natural Product Research, Volume 22, Issue 3 February 2008, pages 264-268
The purpose of this study was to determine the photoprotective properties of propolis.
The sun protection factor (SPF) of ethanol extract of propolis was evaluated by an in vitro method, using homosalate as control. This determination is based on the physical determination of the reduction of the energy in the UV range, through a film of product which has previously been spread on an adequate substrate. About 15 mg of O/W emulsion containing propolis at various concentrations were applied on roughened Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) plates and the transmission measurements were carried out using a spectrophotometer equipped with integrating sphere.
The results may justify their use as a natural sunscreen agent.

A news report in Australia's ABC News on 16th October 2012 tells how Johnson & Johnson is facing a massive class action which could make legal history in Australia. The case was filed in the Federal Court on 15th October 2012 and relates to a transvaginal mesh implant for pelvic organ prolapse.
The news article describes the case of Julie Davis who had the implant to treat a prolapsed bladder but then suffered terrible complications with disabling pain and erosion of the synthetic material into the vagina following the surgery. Urogynaecologist Richard Reid, who treated Ms Davis, describes the mesh inside Ms Davis' body as acting like a cheese grater. She has undergone five surgeries in four years related to the mesh.
Rebecca Jancauskas, who is representing Ms Davis as the lead plaintiff in the prolapse class action, suggests it could be the biggest product class action Australia has ever seen. Class actions have already been initiated in the United States and Canada.
The case brings the Australian system of device approval into the spotlight because the mesh was introduced for sale without any pre-market testing. Some are angry at the Australian regulator, the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) and have accused it of failing in its duties.

April fixed-asset investment (FAI) and industrial production (IP) data came in slightly lower than consensus forecasts and were down from March readings as well. Weaker property investment was the main drag on FAI as home sales fell short of matching the spring rebound in 2013.
Infrastructure investment growth also slowed unexpectedly in April. Although this may pick up slightly in the coming months on the back of recently announced mini-stimulus measures, it is unlikely it will be enough to offset a weaker housing market and continued deleveraging in sectors with overcapacity. The data suggest that the downside risks to growth cannot be underestimated. To stop growth from sliding out of a "reasonable range", Beijing needs to ease policy a little more in the coming months, if not weeks.
Industrial production growth fell slightly to 8.7 percent year-on-year in April, the lowest reading since April 2009.
Fixed-asset investment dropped to a multi-year low of 17.3 percent on the year to date.
The data suggests that the economy slowed further in April after a weak first quarter as both IP and FAI growth rates slipped to multiyear lows. Production in sectors with overcapacity continued to decelerate, while infrastructure investment did not grow fast enough to offset a sluggish manufacturing sector.
Growth in new FAI project starts picked up slightly, and may reflect some of the recent mini-stimulus measures announced by Beijing. But the magnitude of the improvement is marginal, and is unlikely to be enough to put a floor on investment and growth. The weaker industrial production is also concerning, given the closer correlation to GDP growth, and suggests the present slowdown is sharper than it was in mid-2013.
A weaker property sector poses further downside risks to the economy. Property investment accounts for a quarter of overall FAI investments and has significant links to final demand in many related industries. The implications from a further contraction in home sales, which leads investments, therefore warrants close attention. Tight funding conditions as indicated by the credit data release yesterday will also weigh on investments over the next few months.
Data since the start of the year has suggested slower economic momentum, and the April figures indicate this has not changed. We think policymakers should step up policy support to keep growth within a reasonable range. This will entail more accommodative monetary policy to bring down borrowing cost for investment, as well as greater fiscal support. Policymakers have ample ammunition on both fronts though, and we think they are likely to deploy these in a more active manner in the coming months — if not weeks — to prevent a further deterioration in the real economy.

Johnny Reid – Mustangs Ahead
(LAKEWOOD RANCH, FL)- When the buses pulled in to Estero Community Park at around 6:45 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 2, it was already raining. By the time the races began the course was flooded from the storms of the past week.
None of this slowed down the LRHS cross-country teams though, as all four teams again continued their success.
The girls' varsity team placed second overall to St. Brendan High School by only one point while sophomore Ava Klein finished sixth and senior Shay Lee finished seventh overall.
The girls' junior varsity (JV) team placed three in the top 15 and finished third as a team.
On the boys' side, the varsity team placed sixth while junior Johnny Reid was the individual runner-up, three seconds behind the winner. The boys' JV team also finished sixth overall.
Following the race, sophomore Calvin Drake said, "I enjoy the course and think it's fun because it's like a true cross-country course."
By true cross-country course, he is referring to the large man-made hill, flooded grass, hay bales, and sand volleyball courts that competitors must run through on this course.
After such a tough meet, the Mustangs are looking at a quick turn-around due to the possible implications of Hurricane Irma.
The next meet has been moved up two days to Thursday, Sept. 7 in order to avoid any weather interference and to ensure the safety of the athletes.
The combined varsity and JV girls race will begin at 5:45 p.m. with the boys combined race following at 6:25 p.m.

Enhancing research on migration and the Lebanese diaspora
LAU's Institute for Migration Studies aims to raise awareness on the importance of scientific work in the field through fieldwork and lectures.
Researcher Mohamed Kamel Doraï presents a comparative study on Iraqi and Palestinian refugees in Syria and Lebanon.
Guest speaker Walid Maalouf talks about the Lebanese diaspora's influence on the global political economy.
Guest speakers from various ethnic, academic and professional backgrounds have been invited at LAU to share their experience, research and scholarly understanding on migration to and from Lebanon and the Arab world, and the local, regional and international role of the Lebanese diaspora.
The ongoing series of lectures, which was launched in April, is part of a larger initiative undertaken by LAU's Institute for Migration Studies to raise awareness on the importance of these issues in Lebanon.
"I don't think there is a culture in Lebanon yet that really understands the significance of scientific work in migration, and fields like sociology and anthropology are not as developed as they should be," said Dr. Paul Tabar, IMS founder and director, and associate professor in sociology at LAU.
To bridge the gap, IMS is conducting several research projects as well as domestic and international fieldwork, besides the lectures.
In September 2008, IMS was awarded a three-year $342,000 grant by the International Development Research Centre to conduct research on the Lebanese diaspora's impact on Lebanese politics and migrant political activity in Australia, Canada and the U.S.
Interviews with ministers, parliament members, representatives of political parties, and immigrants are currently being conducted across Lebanon to gain a more accurate and comprehensive understanding of the effects of immigration in the country.
"This project has been extremely unique in Lebanon," said Rima Rassi, IMS project manager. "We will be able not only to shed light on what Lebanon is doing toward immigrants, but we also want to see the relationships of immigrants abroad after the fieldwork is conducted," added Rassi.
IMS also hopes to use the collected data to implement policy changes for migrants returning to Lebanon.
As part of the lecture series, researcher Mohamed Kamel Doraï presented, May 11, a comparative study of Iraqi and Palestinian refugees living in camps in Syria and Lebanon and their transition to urbanization.
Doraï, researcher for the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS) and Institut Français du Proche-Orient, explained the causes of these transitions and how Lebanon and Syria are affected.
Guest speaker Walid Maalouf, who has worked as a businessman and diplomat in Washington D.C. for more than 20 years, led the first lecture of the series, April 22.
Citing his experiences, Maalouf discussed the impact of the diaspora on the economic and political arenas in the United States and Lebanon.
On June 15, the institute is planning to hold the next lecture, entitled "Migration, Sovereignty and Nation-state in the Region: Toward an Extraterritorial Nation-State." It will be led by Dr. Sari Hanafi, associate professor of sociology at AUB and editor of Idafat: The Arab Journal of Sociology.

Stretch marks are marks on the skin that appear when the skin stretches beyond its muscle and skin capacity. There are several conditions in which when the body is subjected to causes such stretching.
The main causes of stretch marks are:
One of such conditions and one of the greatest causes of stretch marks is pregnancy. After the pregnancy period, more than 85% of women are left with stretch marks problems. As the skin stretches during the pregnancy period when the baby increases in size, the skin is stretched at a maximum point and breaks especially on the belly area and this is how pregnancy stretch marks appear.
This usually results in the skin on the mother's belly stretching with a couple of inches. During the nine months of pregnancy, the body needs to produce enough collagen to sustain the excessive stretching or else stretch marks appear.
Puberty is another causative factor of stretch marks. During the puberty period, boys and girls experience rapid increase in body size and natural hormone disorder, which means that the skin is also stretched in order to accommodate this increment.
The connective tissue within the skin, as earlier stated, is made up of collagen and therefore the body needs to produce enough to accommodate the stretching. It is a common cause of stretch marks appearance and many skin products manufacturers are developing special creams for this cause only.
People often associate stretch marks with the fat build up in the body. That is why it may seem strange to see a body builder who is in good shape having stretch marks. On the contrary, stretch marks are very common among body builders because of the stretching of the skin as they bulk up rapidly.
This rapid growth of muscles within the body is mostly due to a lot of work out and usage of mass gaining supplements.
One can therefore conclude that stretch marks are basically caused by the increase of the body mass, which causes excessive stretching of the skin.
For them not to appear, one has to produce enough collagen that aid in making connective tissue that will accommodate the stretching.
Weight gain and weight loss
It is stated that any rapid transformation of our bodies could induce the appearance of stretch marks, and extreme diets are a common. As there is no need of explanation why a weight gain program will increase the chances of stretch marks appearance, an extreme diet or weight loss program has a different conclusion.
After we follow an extreme diet plan, our bodies are weakened and the skin hydration level is low. Only some of us know, after each diet program, the bodies have a natural response of gaining weight fast. Some reported a growth of 4 kilograms in only 48 hours. This rapid transformation could cause the appearance of stretch marks.

By Rayane Moussallem, AIPS Media
SEOUL, May 13, 2017 – He is not the kind of journalist you meet every day. He does not seem to like how sports journalists work nowadays. Covering sports events and competitions are not part of his interests. It's what is happening behind the scenes that matters, he says. This is what makes Hajo Seppelt unique.
The German journalist whose focus on the investigation of doping and corruption in sport, and in Russian athletics in particular made him one of the most renowned in the world took the stage at the 80th AIPS Congress to talk about investigative journalism.
"I used to say to myself that if I want to become a journalist, it is through sports. I was always interested in the background of the athletes: why they achieve results and break records. Because my duty as a journalist is to see behind the curtains," Seppelt said as he addressed the auditorium of over 200 journalists.
After starting his career as a sports reporter and commentator on swimming events for Germany's premier broadcaster ARD TV in 1992, he was fired in 2006 after his critique of ARD's uncritical reporting on doping became public. Since then, he has been working as a freelancer for ARD, filming reports and documentaries about doping.
'Part of the sports family'
"My colleagues didn't like what I was doing, they told me that I was destroying the product and sports and that they do not want to be involved in this. They are part of the sports family but I am not, I am a journalist," he explained.
"A lot of officials misused sports for their own interest and this is not how journalism should be done. A lot of journalists were part of the game; they are superficial and too close to athletes.
"This doesn't give them the distance to be out of it, and monitor it" Seppelt was clear.
The Shadowy World of Athletics
In 2015, Seppelt won the AIPS Sports Media Pearl Award in the "Video Documentary" category for his piece "Doping – Top Secret: The Shadowy World of Athletics" [see video above] on widespread doping in Russia, Kenya and beyond.
Answering a question on the authenticity of sources in his work, the German said: "You need between 10 or 15 people at least to check the evidence. I have worked with the Stepanov family who were called traitors by Russian media so we have to check on everything," Seppelt said, referring to Russian athletes Yuliya and Vitaly Stepanov who brought to light the extent of doping in Russian sports in 2015.
For that, Seppelt admitted receiving warnings and threats from Russia: "A lot of journalists didn't like my work, particularly from Russia and they threatened me. They sent life threat messages in an unbelievable way. ARD had to rent security personal to protect us. They don't want to understand what investigative journalism is all about."
Many journalists who become involved in this kind of investigative work might easily be putting their jobs at stake, given that their employers could easily refuse such stories for sponsorship and advertising purposes.
And the German admitted that his particular work environment is helping him in his mission.
He said: "ARD helped in that. Sometimes we have deadlines but it depends on the events. The point is that the story has to be serious and correct. In 2014, it took us a year to investigate the Russian scandal; they asked me if I can make a story of six minutes and I said no I need 45 minutes.
"I know this is difficult, and I say that we have this privilege where I work."
'IAAF is doing better'
"Just 10 or 15 years ago, no one would have accepted that I would be in an AIPS Congress talking about this. The approach has become different but we are still far away. Now we are seeing the real faces of some people, we have to think about a way to support publishers and investigators. Now 40 or 50% of the stories are being out which is much better than before.
"The IAAF is doing much better than it was just a couple of years ago, other federations should follow this path," Seppelt added, referring to a a cleanup of the world athletics body that his work was a catalyst for.
'Journalists should not be fans of sport'
The 2017 Gold World Medal winner at the New York Film Festivals in the category "Current Affairs" for his documentary "Doping -Top Secret; Showdown for Russia" was critical towards the work of journalists around the world.
'In my opinion, journalists are not there to be the companion or fan of sports, they are there to be the watchdogs of sports," Seppelt told the AIPS Congress.
"Over 400 journalists were sent from Germany to cover the Olympics; they didn't investigate a single matter. We have to change part of the system. If we have a department and there is no one interested in this, then it's a major problem.
"Journalism is the same in every part of the world. In the majority of countries, we don't have critical journalists. They are too close to the subject they report," Seppelt said. A number of journalists present added to the discussion that 'critical journalism' was often a case of funding, circumstances, a platform made impossible in many lower-income nations around the world.
The 54 year-old who revealed doping scandals in Germany and China too, explained how the door to more corruption is open for every single federation.
He said: "Big countries like USA and Russia who achieve a lot in sports have one vote in international federations just like Fiji Islands for example, and this is so wrong on many levels which opens the way to more corruption."
Even though he was involved in sports throughout his career, Seppelt has a common view for all journalism.
"I have no experience in other fields but what happens in sports, happens everywhere. If I am a sports, economy or politics reporter, it's the same. They have to invest a little portion into background and dig deeper in investigative journalism," he concluded, marking the end of one of the most successful panels on journalism at an AIPS Congress.

A jury in St. Louis ordered Johnson & Johnson JNJ to pay $4.69 billion in damages to 22 women and their families who claimed that the company's baby powder contained asbestos, which caused them to develop ovarian cancer. The verdict is the largest J&J has faced to date over allegations that its talc-based products cause cancer. The damages comprised $550 million in compensatory damages and $4.14 billion in punitive damages.
J&J, in an official statement, said it was disappointed with the verdict, and denied that its talc products cause cancer and that they ever contained asbestos. The company is battling some 9,000 talc cases. It stated that decades of studies show its talc to be safe and has successfully overturned previous talc verdicts on technical legal grounds. The shares of the company fell by about 1% in after-hours trading on Thursday. The company plans to appeal the case.
Year to date, shares of the company have declined 8.5% compared with the industry's decline of 0.8%.
J&J is expected to report its second quarter financial results on Jul 17, 2018. The positive sales trend witnessed in the past three quarters is expected to continue in the second quarter as well. J&J is quite confident that its Pharma segment will continue to perform better than the market this year, despite the impact of biosimilars on sales of its key arthritis drug, Remicade. Sales in the Consumer and Medical Device segments are also expected to improve.
New products in all segments, successful label expansion of cancer drugs like Imbruvica and Darzalex, and contribution from recent acquisitions should continue to drive top-line growth. Core products like Stelara, Zytiga, Simponi/Simponi Aria and Invega Sustenna are expected to boost growth further.

Given how extremely nerdy I am…I had to go – because science is fun.
In fact, I was really excited to go. Even though, his school is for pre-preschool, preschool, kindergarten and first grade….so we couldn't expect any mind boggling experiments….but whatever – science fairs rock (enter my nerdiness (although – nerdiness is in the eye of the beholder right? Maybe my husband's fantasy football is nerdy too… but in a much different (read: lamer) way)).
And we were pleasantly surprised to see some really fun and really interactive science exhibits. Carter learned about bugs, magnifying glasses, microscopes (although he struggled using it with just one eye), strange matter, water tornados, dancing raisins, etc.
Science fairs rock. For us nerds.
I wish I had pictures of the science fair. But I forgot my camera.
Instead, please enjoy this picture of Avery in the double stroller (while Carter played in the park).

Press Release: 'Let Sarsak Live' football protest in London today
5 June 2012
TODAY: Londoners to stage football protest for Palestinian political prisoner on hunger strike
Contact: Zaneta 07927 189671 or Hilary 07756 977167 or general phone 07448 613383
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Photos /footage: available this afternoon on request.
When: Today Tuesday June 5 from 12 NOON till 4PM
Where: Starting at Palestine Place 24 Gray's Inn Road, WC1X 8HP at 12PM or Trafalagar Square at 12.30PM
Footballs will be kicked in protest in central London today as demonstrators seek to highlight the plight of a member of Palestine's national team close to death in an Israeli jail.
Protesters – wearing the shirts of football teams from around the world – will stage the symbolic action at several locations in the capital including Trafalgar Square, Covent Garden, and several London parks in solidarity with Mahmoud Sarsak who has been on hunger strike for more than 77 days.
Around 30 demonstrators holding banners reading 'Let Sarsak Live', will blow whistles and exchange passes to draw attention to the system of administrative detention that Israel uses to imprison people without charge or trial.
Sarsak has been jailed by Israel for almost three years without ever being charged with a crime.
He is one of a number of political prisoners on hunger strike in protest against their detention without trial, the inhumane conditions and barbaric interrogation techniques Israel uses.
The protest has been organised through Palestine Place, a newly reclaimed space in central London holding two weeks of workshops, discussions and actions in support of Palestine. The twitter hashtag is #LetSarsakLive.
=== Notes for editors ===
* A wave of hunger strikes by Palestinian political prisoners in protest against the lack of family visitation rights, detention conditions including solitary confinement and administrative detention Israel agree to free many earlier this year.
* Administrative detention is the system Israel uses to imprison people without charge or trial for six month periods which can be renewed indefinitely.
* Palestine Place is a newly reclaimed space in central London hosting two weeks of workshops, discussion and action in support of Palestine. It is located at 24 Gray's Inn Road, WC1X 8HP.

Mahmoud Sarsak should have spent last night at home in Gaza. But he is still incarcerated in an Israeli prison.
Israel had agreed to release Sarsak on 1st July, but when he insisted on having that in writing Israel maliciously withdrew it and vexatiously added 9 more days in the Israeli dungeons:
"An earlier offer to release him on July 1 in exchange for ending his hunger strike was withdrawn when he demanded the deal be put into writing…"
Sarsak was proved to be right to reject the Israeli verbal offer, as Israel did renegue on its verbal agreement with other hunger strikers under the 14 May deal:
"We believe that Israel has renewed at least 30 administrative detention orders and issued at least three new ones since this deal was struck, and family visits for Gazan prisoners have still not started."
Of course, one cannot fully trust any agreement with Israel, not even a written one.
Next week, on Tuesday 10th July Sarsak should at last be released, after 3 years of being illegally imprisoned by Israel and epic 92 day hunger strike.
But your voice is still needed to save the lives of the other hunger strikers, especially Akram Rikhawi who is today on his 82nd day of hunger strike, as well as Samer AlBarq, on day 42, and Hassan Safadi, on day 12 of renewed hunger strikes, in protest of their administrative detention.
