Exhausted, terrified and uncertain of their future, this is how civilians coming out of Eastern Aleppo appeared as the army evacuated more than 700 people from Bab AlHadid, the historic gate of Aleppo which is now part of an elusive frontline that changes hourly as the army charges ahead with increasing momentum.
CCTV's Alaa Ebrahim reports the story.

More than 700 civilians evacuated from eastern AleppoExhausted, terrified and uncertain of their future, this is how civilians coming out of Eastern Aleppo appeared as the army evacuated more than 700 persons from Bab AlHadid, the historic gate of Aleppo. CCTV's Alaa Ebrahim reports the story.
The new arrivals had many stories to tell of the horror they experienced.
"Inside we suffered what no one can withstand, we weren't allowed to smoke so I used to roll up tree leaves and smoke them. When we got here, a soldier gives me a pack of smokes. There was no bread, but now I am out and it will be fine," said Abu Adham, the resident of Bab Al-Makam in old Aleppo.
For those fleeing the clashes, having luggage is a luxury they can't afford. But for some of them, possessions are worth the risk. Ahmad took a chance with his life to get his bicycle out. The 12 years old boy should be in the third grade. But he hasn't been to school in four years
Meters from where civilians are leaving, the army is pressing ahead. We accompanied soldiers as they searched through rebel headquarters to find out some of the surprises the rebels left behind.
"While we were clearing the area, residents told us that they saw militants coming out of this place, and we raided the place and found they dug a tunnel that heads to the citadel. The entrance is in a mosque for camouflage. And it seems they planned to booby-trap it, but didn't manage to do it in time," said Hassan Issa, one Syrian army soldier.
The Syrian army has advanced to the point where they can now see the Aleppo citadel. Charred bodies lay on the streets. Posters on the ground are a stark reminder of who controlled this neighborhood earlier this year – Al-Qaeda's Syrian affiliates and the FSA.
More than 700 civilians evacuated from eastern Aleppo

This might be our favorite piece of the Fragments Selections Collection !
Pigments & Porcelain is a research by Nienke & Alissa (VIJ5) about the flowing of colours through liquid porcelain, resulting in a series of handmade and unique objects.
By using various porcelain colours together in the traditional pouring process, the moment of creation is captured in the final product.
The mini planters also work great as cups and function brilliantly with our Pigments & Porcelain Plates.
Measures (cm) : H. 6,5 / Diameter 6
These mini planters are also availalbe in a series of 6 and in turquoise.
Please note : Every piece has a unique pattern based on the same colour basis, this makes every piece different. If you have a preference for a mostly black, or rather more white, more 'marbled' or rather plain planter, please let us know in the 'notes' box at check-out and we'll take it into account. :)

Non-federal railways see major modernisation need
The non-federally-owned railways in Germany see an urgent need for investment in their infrastructure. The catalogue
produced by the approximately 50 railway companies contains over 230 measures that would need to be embarked on as soon as possible.
This emerges from the second survey of non-federal railways in Germany since 2009 by the Association of German Transport Companies (VDV). The Association puts the annual amount that needs to be invested in the non-federal infrastructure at around EUR 150 million.
In this regard, the VDV is once again calling on the federal government to put the necessary legislation in place for the fi nancing of the non-federallyowned railway infra-structure. In the short term, the VDV says, this would mean implementing a separate funding directive.
We, Net Translation Services Limited, are in your disposal with our experienced translator team of 35 persons specialized in Rail Systems Terminology in English, German, Russian, French languages Please visit website: Nettercume.com.tr for our references.

Asset Recovery Solutions for Companies across the Nation
Finding asset recovery solutions that work for your business can be difficult, but at Liquis, we can tailor our services to suit your needs. We understand that a one-size-fits-all approach simply doesn't work when applied to asset recovery, so we customize our approach to every client's particular circumstances. For instance, perhaps your office is preparing for new furniture, and you're unsure of what to do with your current, outdated furniture. At Liquis, we will happily pick up all of these items – or you can opt to ship them to us – in one large exchange and remarket them to maximize your returns. On the other hand, a one-time pick-up might not work in your situation. Businesses that generate large amounts of scrap electronics or e-waste may be better served by scheduling regular deliveries to our location.
In addition to our asset recovery solutions, you may also want to incorporate some of our other services to make the process smoother for your company. Our available services include:
- Asset buyout
- Data destruction

Red and white...Only 3 more to catch up on before the latest installment!
Here I am so far:
I was also doing the same with orange and grey and got this far before I started not liking it too well:
I'm bailing on this second set for now! At least until I totally catch up on the red and white (which I really like the looks of!) Then I might make a couple more blocks just so it's a shape.
If I do have extra time, I really wanted to do the Farmer's Barrister's wife Sow-Along (or whatever it's called now!) over on Randy's blog. I have a lot of vintage fabrics to use up and that might be a good place to put some of them!
I was off sewing for the past two days due to my vehicle needing to be in the shop and so spending a lot of the time just figuring out how to get my normal stuff done!
Did manage to get to JoAnn's to use my 50% off coupon on some wool batting though! I've been wanting to try it out for ages and with all the finishes I've been making lately, I was really low on batting!
Hey, my JoAnn's is right by the repair shop! How convenient!

// thanks to the mighty stumbleupon i uh ..stumbled upon this awesome photo series called 'processed views' with landscapes made from food by barbara ciurej & lindsay lochman. such a clever idea! i especially love the fruit loops one.
// i adore this 1940s rose print wrap dress. so, so pretty! on a more modern note, isn't this surreal botanical print dress cool?
// i may or may not have got terribly distracted by this html5 drawing canvas recently. so simple and fun. which reminds me, have you seen patatap yet? well designed, fun to use and a great way to waste a little time! great for kids and adults alike.
// i'm intrigued by this book, make your own luck by kate moross. i like books that share advice and tips without being preachy, and kates work is wonderfully colourful and graphic, so this is a definite buy from my (ever growing) wishlist.

Despite a relatively 'cool' trailer, I haven't been too interested in seeing Keanu's post-Matrix opus, Constantine. However, this NYTimes interview with Tilda Swinton, in which she adamantly asserts the film has a topical political subtext, has piqued my interest:
HILARY DE VRIES: "Constantine" is quite a departure for you. What interested you in the film?
TILDA SWINTON: I loved the idea of a blockbuster film that talks about good and evil at a time when everyone is talking about good and evil and the "axis" thereof, and the rest of us are expected to just sort of swallow it. It felt like it had the capacity to be a radical political film.
Q. It's a complete departure from the Bible.
A. Yes, but it is absolutely not a departure from real life as we are living it today, in the grip of people who are dressing themselves up as God's right hand and taking us into war. The challenge was to make sure Gabriel never turns into an evil demon, that we see how he engineers this extraordinarily violent apocalypse out of love. Which is sort of the situation we're all in now … [i]n that the attitude of righteousness is a reason for pretty much anything now. What's shocking is how easily that's peddled today. It's like Gabriel's rationale. I don't remember the exact lines, but it's essentially, "My job is to get as many souls as possible to heaven, and I have noticed that you are at your most spiritually open when the place is in flames, so I'm going to torch the joint." It's a beautiful piece of reasoning, and it's a righteous argument, but it's terrifying.
Q. Religious absolutism can be found in many places.
A. True, there is all sorts of religious extremism all over the place, but the reason for this partly has to do with the fascist attitudes and language of absolutism coming from Washington. It's challenging for people outside of America that Bush was re-elected. It means we're all going to have to work a lot harder to understand what so many more Americans than we thought really want. It's an identity shift in our minds about America and maybe for many Americans as well.
Q. And you think this film will resonate along those lines? It's not overtly political.
A. I don't think there is any way that it won't. Actually, there were a couple of moments in my speeches that were more politically on the nose, and they were cut, and I'm actually glad they were. We don't want to date the film, but also we don't want to alienate people who need to do new thinking about this. We're not only preaching to the converted, but we also want to speak to those people who think they know what righteousness is.
The New York Times > Movies > An Angel You Wouldn't Want to Be Touched By
UPDATE 2/26/05: I saw the movie last night. Tilda is barely in it, but fascinating when she is. As for the movie having political implications — it's huge stretch. The movie's a watchable and visually intense bit of Catholicism porn, but I doubt it will influence much more than a few more million dollars out of Hellblazer fans.
UPDATE 5/10/2005: Tilda Swinton has signed on to play The White Witch in the new Chronicles of Narnia movie, produced by Bush backer Philip Anschutz. So I guess that rules out any chance of her politics clouding her paychecks. Also, I added the Amazon link to the Constantine 2-disc DVD with comic book. For those genuinely interested, it's an awesome special edition.

If you are indecisive or easily discouraged, social media is not the place to go and share what you are working on. Recently we unveiled our 1st published book cover, some suggested a different cover, we thought about it and switched it up. We unveiled the new cover and one person in particular came with negativity. It's interesting as this individual rarely if ever comments on our posts or likes anything that we post. Do you have "followers" or "friends" on your social media like that?
Social media can be a cruel place full of critics, naysayers, and negativity. Rarely should one take advice or critique from someone who hasn't accomplished a similar feat in life. What does this have to do with DECIDE? When you make a decision that you are comfortable with and fully know shall work out. F.O.C.U.S - Follow On Course Until Successful and keep going until you WIN!

Things My Students Have Taught Me 1
When my last book came out I was worried about what kind of reviews it would get. I dreaded reading reviews that would just tear it apart. When the reviews finally came there weren't very many negative ones. After reading the first one I suddenly realized, that of course the reviews were not going to be as bad as I had imagined they could be. Nobody was going to read my book as closely as I had. No one was going to think about it as much as I had. Knowing that, all the reviews became easier to take, even the negative ones.
Anyway, the reviews haven't started to come in just yet for my new book, but I have gotten a negative review of the blurb on a blog. Check it out. At least my book's at the top of the page. And thanks to whoever it was in Greece who connected to my blog from that blog.
And of course, check out my publisher's blog for my weekly bit about the making of my Turkmenistan book.

Sticky Heelz's Product innovation wins GBEA award as women fall in love again with heels
Founder Laura Birrell stepped into the shoe products limelight last Thursday, winning the GBEA GoDo Entrepreneur of the Year award for Scotland and Northern Ireland for her dual system anti slip product that's making women fall in love with their heels and shoes again. Wearable with socks and tights, Sticky Heelz make shoes a perfect fit and take the pain out of staying in ill-fitting shoes that the wearer loves.
The problem Sticky Heelz solves is real. Said Laura, "whenever I left the house I would go through the process of thinking what shoes go with my outfit; how far will I have to walk; when will the pain kick in; what will I need to take - spare shoes or plasters? Then what handbag will I need to accommodate that," and many shoe lovers will confirm it, as Sticky Heels research shows. Surveying 100 wearers Laura discovered only 18% were happy about the fit of their shoes, indicating a massive 72% were not. The truth is, says Laura, "60% of us have unequal feet, and 33% have narrow feet, and manufacturers only offer half sizes in limited brands."
Sticky Heelz takes the pain literally out of wearing shoes wearers love because they also reduce blistering. The dual, instantly applied padding system fits the heel and the shoe creating a snug fit that's comfy all night or day.
"The day I decided I wouldn't wait for someone to come up with a solution for my shoe problems was a game changer," says Laura. "It was validation that life begins at 40!". She had her first child when she turned 43 and started the business trading at the end of 2015. So, to win this award less than two years later is an inspiration for women entrepreneurs and for the business.
Competition at the GBEA Awards was stiff and only a product from an entrepreneur who understood their market could have won. Said Francesca James Founder of the Royal Bank of Scotland Great British Entrepreneur Awards: "the standard of entries has been outstanding, and we hope that winning an award will help give these entrepreneurs the recognition they thoroughly deserve." Gordon Merrilee's, Head of Entrepreneurship for award sponsors Royal Bank of Scotland, said: "It has been so inspiring to see the number and calibre of entries this year, which proves that the entrepreneurial spirit is alive and well in Scotland and Northern Ireland."

|The High Street, with Fry's Buildings 1858-73
They were built in 1833 and demolished in 1957 to make way for an extension to Hinds and the playground of the old village school.*
In the 1830s they were owned by John Fry and appear on official maps as Fry's Buildings but have always been known as Jubilee Cottages because they were built in the year that the Reverend Shaw Brooke celebrated his fiftieth year as vicar of Eltham.
|Ram Alley, 1909
Those in Sun Yard were a row of cottages lying at the rear of the Sun Inn and approached by an archway formed by the inn's buildings.
They were condemned as unfit and demolished by the time that the historian R.R.C, Gregory came to write about them.
Of course what makes all of them fascinating is that through the census returns, the tithe schedule and rate books we know who lived in them.
Like Thomas and Caroline Evans who are listed as living in one of the middle houses of Jubilee Cottages in 1844 and were still there in the spring of 1851.
He described himself as a gardener and in that spring of 1851 they had three children, all born in the property.
|Baptismal record of Thomas Evans, 1813, St John's
*Hinds was the departmental store built in 1934, and the village school was the new National School opened in 1868 and now called Eltham Church of England School on Roper Street.

Analysis of Diabetic Foot Ulcer Risk Factors, Causes, and Quantitative Measurement tools

Summer Student Program
Diabetic foot ulceration (DFU) is one of the most common reasons for lower extremity amputations. These ulcers cause infections and cause tissue necrosis, which leads to decreased wound healing. It is important to gain a comprehensive understanding of risk factors, causes, and current clinical quantitative measurement techniques for DFU wounds. All diabetic patients require an annual comprehensive foot examination to determine the risk factors for ulcers and amputations. There are several risk factors that increase the risk of DFU and affect the healing process. These factors include previous amputation, previous history of DFU, peripheral neuropathy, foot deformity, peripheral arterial disease (PAD), diabetic nephropathy specially ESRD, poor glycemic control, and cigarette smoking. Current treatment of foot ulcers consists of relief of pressure and protection of the ulcer, restoration of skin perfusion, treatment of infection, metabolic control and treatment of comorbidity, education, and prevention of recurrence. Etiology of DFU is multifactorial with various pathophysiological pathways that are activated due to Diabetes Mellitus. These pathways can be broken down into three categories: neuropathy, trauma, and vascular disease. Neuropathies can include deficits seen in motor, sensory or autonomic systems. Trauma from footwear, foot deformity, or high-pressure spots can lead to foot ulceration. Vascular effects can be seen from both micro and macro perspectives. Importance in early diagnosis for DFU is critical to faster healing rates. For this reason, an integrated system based on deep learning Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) was created to perform wound segmentation and analysis. Using a combination of local and global textures, an input image is analyzed by the CNN to determine wound surface area, presence of infection, and healing progress. The accuracy and precision of this combined CNN model is assessed using images of DFUs taken from the Wound Care Clinic. Once validated, patient data for those who are being treated in the Wound Care Clinic at University of Michigan are fed to the model for analysis. Each patient will have about 7-8 data points for a total of 700-800 total data points. Measurements such as age, gender, wound images, arterial Doppler study results, wound infection status, healing date, lab work such as HbA1c, albumin/prealbumin, eGFR, ESR and CRP are provided to the learning model to create a more precise and accurate healing rate prediction. This current proposal is under IRB approval.

Lemon grass (Cymbopogon spp.) reproduces by growing new shoots from the base of the plant, and this is the area that provides the best cuttings. Frost-tender, perennial plants, lemon grass varieties include culinary lemon grass (Cymbopogon citratus) and citronella grass (Cymbopogon nardus), a decorative plant that produces the signature citronella oil. Lemon grass grows outdoors in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 10 through 11, and citronella grass grows in USDA zones 10 through 12. Citronella grass is also called mana grass, nardus and nard grass.
Video of the Day
Propagating From Clumps
A single clump of lemon grass can provide many new plants. Lemon grass clumps grow steadily wider through the growing season, and you can remove small pieces of plant with roots attached from the edge of a clump. The best time for propagating lemon grass from clumps is late fall or early winter, when the plants have stopped growing.
Things You'll Need
- Sharp trowel or spade
- Rubbing alcohol
- Pruning shears or knife
- 3-inch plant pot with drainage holes
Potting soil
Step 1
Cut vertically through the edge of the base of a lemon grass plant into the soil with a sharp trowel, so you slice off a section of shoots 1/2 to 1 inch wide and their attached roots. If the clump is large and the root system is deep, you may need to use a sharp spade to cut all the way through the roots.
Step 2
Wipe pruning shear blades or the blade of a pruning knife with a cloth dipped in rubbing alcohol.
Step 3
Prune the removed lemon grass section's leaves to 5 or 6 inches long. Prune the roots to shorten them so that they will fit in a 3-inch plant pot with drainage holes. Wipe the pruning shears or pruning knife blade with rubbing alcohol when you've finished.
Step 4
Fill the plant pot to 1/2 inch below the rim with freely draining potting soil, such as potting soil for cuttings or seedlings. Make a hole in the center of the soil large enough to hold the roots of the lemon grass section.
Step 5
Place the lemon grass section in the plant pot so that it sits at its original growing depth. Fill in the gaps around its roots with potting soil.
Step 6
Water the lemon grass section until water flows through the drainage holes in the plant pot, and place the pot in a warm, sunny spot indoors if you get frosts in your area. In frost-free climates, place the pot outdoors in a sunny area sheltered from winds.
Step 7
Water the lemon grass section when the soil surface is dry.
Rooting Lemon Grass From a Grocery Store Stem
Culinary lemon grass stems sold in grocery stores often sprout roots when left in a glass of water for several weeks. Place two or three stems in a clean glass jar and fill the jar with clean water. Change the water every day. Roots usually form within two to three weeks. When the roots are 2 to 3 inches long, plant each stem in a 3-inch plant pot with drainage holes and freely draining potting soil, and care for the plants in the same way as sections taken from lemon grass clumps.
Select stems that have large base plates for the best chances of success.
Planting in the Garden
When lemon grass roots appear through the drainage holes in the pot, the plant is ready for planting into the garden.
In areas that experience frosts, wait until after the last frost before planting lemon grass outdoors.
Plant the new lemon grass plants in an area that receives at least six hours of direct sun each day. Lemon grass tolerates most soils, but it grows best in organically rich soil that drains well.
Dig a hole the same depth as the plant pot and about 1 1/2 times as wide. Remove the plant from its pot and place it in the hole at its original growing depth. Fill in the gaps around its roots with dug soil. Space lemon grass plants 2 feet apart.
After Care
Lemon grass thrives in evenly moist soil and with regular applications of liquid fertilizer. Water lemon grass when the soil is dry to a depth of 1/2 inch, applying enough water to moisten the soil to the base of the root ball.
To fertilize lemon grass, dissolve 2 teaspoons of a water-soluble, 24-8-16 fertilizer in 1 gallon of water and apply the solution every week. One gallon feeds 10 square feet of lemon grass plants.

A few weeks back, we featured last year's 'Americana Music's Best New Emerging Artist' Hayes Carll, as he was announced as the opener for one of Levon Helm's upcoming Rambles. I actually only learned tonight that he received that accolade in 2010, but as one of only a few musicians I latched on to after many hours of listening to Pandora over the years, its pretty satisfying to learn about it.
Two days ago, the day his new album KMAG YOYO was released, Carll appeared as the very last name listed on the extensive lineup for this year's Bonnaroo festival, the tenth year of the annual event in Manchester, TN, earning him the title of Mr. Irrelevant for 2011. Let's hope he takes advantage of the opportunity.
Past years' "Mr. Irrelevant" at Bonnaroo are:
2010 - Warpaint
2009 - Zee Avi
2008 - Your Vegas
2007 - The Biscuit Burners
2006 - Zac Brown Band
2005 - Alexandra McHale
2004 - Donavon Frankenreiter
2003 - Toots and the Maytals
2002 - DJ Z-Trip
Here is a video of Hayes doing his best Tom Joad-era Springsteen impression with his song Rivertown

Author, deacon, and PhD. Lora-Ellen McKinney believes that Christian Education (CE) is critically important for congregational vitality. Her book offers a comprehensive examination of CE and provides an educational strategy for those congregations who provide education with or for African-Americans. McKinney includes educational theory and offers practical suggestions for creating a strong CE ministry. She discusses learning styles, developmental stages in learners, curriculum, and makes suggestions for incorporating an educational component into different congregational activities. Some may be most interested in McKinney's review of her research results with several predominantly African American congregations. Others will find her African-Centered educational plan compelling. Still others will appreciate the additional resources, suggestions, "teachable moments[s]," and reflection questions sprinkled throughout the book. McKinney focuses on the African American community, yet her text is rich with ideas and information and can be helpful for any congregation that seeks to strengthen its educational ministry.

I love this Peter Pan collard blouse because it conveys some sort of sweetness and youthful vintage look. Since I wanted to create a sophisticated look, I've chosen a classic black and white ensemble. This fur on this skirt is so soft, wish you guys can feel it. It's cold outside, so I had to wear my black wool coat I bought from Max Mara years ago. It's definitely an investment piece but I feel so rich in it. Haha! It's also very warm, of course. :)
My lovely readers, what are your thoughts on this Peter Pan collar trend? Do you love them or hate them?

Flimsy tripod
Wedding photographers should not make the mistake of investing in a flimsy tripod even if it is cheaper to do so and even if money is hard to come by with in the beginning. It comes as no secret or surprise that wedding photographers who are quite new to their careers and who are just starting out with growing their businesses are quite strapped for cash. This is exactly the main reason why a lot of them resort to cheaper alternatives when they need to invest in photography accessories such as tripods, light stands, and so on and so forth. This is not the kind of mistake that you should go for though one way or the other. This is the kind of thing that will really put your photography gear at risk. A flimsy and cheap tripod is an unstable tripod. It will not be able to deliver on the kind of stability and support that it promises one way or the other and it is something that you should approach with caution at all times. A flimsy tripod is something that might topple over at the slightest gust of strong wind or at the first small imbalances. If you cannot afford to buy a high quality tripod just yet, then you should borrow or rent one out instead until you are able to make that high quality buy.
Not leave tripod
Do not leave your tripod behind. Wedding photographers such as wedding photographer London know and understand the value of having the tripod handy all of the type. What a lot of wedding photographers out there usually end up committing is the mistake of leaving their tripods behind at home. This is something that you should never do. You have to remember or keep in mind of the fact that when it all comes down to it, you purchased your tripod for a reason. A tripod is always useful regardless if you are shooting in low light or high light settings and it will always make sure that you come prepared no matter what kind of situation you may be dealing with. A tripod comes with so many different uses that it really will end up being a waste if you do not bring it with you in the first place. If having to lug it around with you is so much of an issue for you because you think that it is something that causes so much hassle, there is a simple solution to it. All that you really need to do is for you to make sure that you opt to buy a tripod that allows easy mobility or transport. This is something that will cost just a little bit more than the usual but it is still something that will pay off in the end.
Center column
Do not extend the center column of the tripod first if you need some kind of elevation for your camera angle. If you need the added height, reach out and extend the tripod legs first instead. The center column is a sensitive area and should be the last thing that you should be messing with.

While it is nice that the PLP have pledged to introduce dedicated mini-bus service to St. David's, this service should have been an obvious inclusion in the introduction of the St. David's ferry stop.
The lack of details in terms of price, availability and accessibility leaves much to be desired because who knows what a dedicated mini-bus really means. Indeed, mini-buses are already available in St. David's, the real issue is that they are cost prohibitive. Who wants to spend $4 to ride a minibus on top of the regular bus and ferry fares?
The lack of basic improvements to the overall transport situation for St. David's when combined with the lack of updates on the government web site with regards to improvements still leaves a great deal to be desired. Should the PLP be gunning for support from neglected St. David's islanders, they're going to have to do a fair bit better than last minute promises.

Unicorns are out, pineapples are in – especially if you're looking for a new bikini for the summer, because the latest piece of must-have pineapple clothing is a Primark bikini.Relax in the snow-topped peace and quiet of Gstaad in Switzerland
The pink top and bottoms are both covered in pineapples and together cost just £6 (£3 each) – making it a total bargain too.
Primark has been getting a lot of extra love lately, what with their new makeup palettes and The Little Mermaid collection – and now they've hit the mark with their swimwear.
Customers are already going crazy for the summer item – which is available in the UK, Germany, Belgium, Austria and the Netherlands – and that includes beauty bloggers.

If it's got pineapples on or it's made out of copper, rose gold or marble, I probably own it. 🌵🍍 Pineapple, cactus and marble obsessed, so guilty, anyone else? I can't believe how many of you have asked where this bikini is from, somewhere I haven't been in so so long but it's from @primark 🍍🌵 I'm all for designer pieces but when you see a perfect pineapple bikini you've just gotta get it. 😍 Thank you for fuelling my pineapple obsession 🙈 It's so affordable 😍👯 #Primark #ad #PrimarkSunSavers #EmTalksTravels #Tan #bikini #beach #Florida ph. @ellenextdoor 🌊 In Clearwater, Florida (had no idea how amazing this place is…)
Fashion, beauty and lifestyle blogger Em Sheldon picked up the bikini and posted a snap of herself wearing it on the beach.
Em wrote: 'I'm all for designer pieces but when you see a perfect pineapple bikini you've just gotta get it. Thank you for fuelling my pineapple obsession. It's so affordable.'
Another lifestyle blogger, Elle, whose Instagram handle is @ellenextdoor, walked along the beach in her pineapple bikini while carrying one of Primark's doughnut pool floats.
She wrote: 'When you're channelling Baywatch but actually you just look like the donut you're carrying. Everything from @primark because they're the queens of summer'.
With the way they're going, we'd have to agree with Elle – currently, Primark really are the queens of summer.

Health Benefits of Thyme
This herb originates in the Mediterranean and is a member of the mint family. Thanks to its distinctive taste, thyme is well recognizable from your spice set and has remained a culinary primary food ingredient to this day. But it's so much more than an ingredient, because of his medicinal qualities.
Anti-fungal Ability. The most well-known active element contained in thyme is thymol. This organic and natural compound can offer an array of effects on the body, for example, the potential to prevent fungal and viral infections, thereby lowering pressure on the immune system.
Antioxidant Capacity. With probably one of the highest antioxidant levels in any herb, thyme continues to be praised for many years as a complete health booster. The phenolic antioxidants contained in thyme such as lutein, zeaxanthin, and also thymosin every one of them results to neutralizing and getting rid of free radicals throughout the body. Free-radicals are the harmful waste byproducts of cellular metabolism which are able to do serious problems on your healthy cells by causing apoptosis or unpredictable mutation. These types of antioxidants can contribute to preventing oxidative stress in every of your organ systems, and also your neural pathways, heart, eyes, as well as skin.
Circulation. The rich level of iron along with additional important minerals in thyme allow it to become perfect for boosting the production of red blood cells, consequently boosting your body's circulations as well as the oxygenation of vital organ systems and even extremities throughout the body.
Heart Health. The high mixture of antioxidants, minerals, and even vitamins in this herb have a lot of small effects on the heart, nevertheless, the potassium and also manganese are very important. Potassium is a vasodilator, which means that it might probably trim down the stress on the cardiovascular system by relaxing blood vessels and reducing high blood pressure. This could improve your life by taking preventive measures to stop atherosclerosis as well as keeping away from strokes, heart attacks, and even coronary heart disease.
Vision Booster. The carotenoids and Vitamin A concentration contained in thyme has turned it into a really good antioxidant agent for the health of your vision. Carotenoids could possibly reduce the effects of the free radicals in your ocular system as well as slow down the onset of macular degeneration and also reduce the chances of cataracts!
Immune System. The high levels of Vitamin C present in sage can help it to become a natural immune system improvement supplement. Vitamin C promotes the manufacturing of white blood cells, which could be the 1st defensive line of the body's immune system. Furthermore, Vitamin C is an important factor in the production of collagen, which is actually necessary for the creation and recovery of cells, muscles, tissues, and also blood vessels.

Flash Game Review: Fancy Pants Adventures World 2
Posted In: addictinggames , adventure , armorgames , fancy pants , review . By 30 minute gamer
The Fancy Pants Adventures World 2 (yes it's that long of a title) REALLY delivers as much or more than the original found here. It has a few more features, but a massive amount of more content.
You see the first Fancy Pants game is rather short. It did make me fairly giddy, but to be quite honest it felt like a game made to demonstrate a flash technique. Or something that was cooked up as a cool physics demonstration that turned into a game. This feeling of it never being made as a game really left me just slightly irked. I felt like the author had the opportunity to add a lot more depth to the game, and he just missed out.
Well, trust me, this version has enough depth for an olympic diver to jump into. There are a lot more levels, the nasty rabbit you have to fight at the very end for your awesome ice cream is fairly hard. Now that says a lot, because while the fight principles are simple, it was VERY tough to execute properly.
That's right, the very start of the game has you teeing off on a turtles shell for a round of golf... this is a clue by the way for how to beat the last boss... that dastardly rabbit.
Now, it might sound like the game hasn't been updated much. But you'd be wrong. See, little things like your character taking a nap if you don't play much. Or if you pause the game you have the option of locking the keyboard preventing accidental continuing... a feature I've come to love. Also, levels have more detail in them. Trees are more artistic, the level design has more flow to it. It's like the original... only a batter newer and bigger version.
Longevity: 4.0/5
Interface: 4.5/5
Addictiveness: 5/5
Sound: 4.5/5
Simplicity: 4.0/5
Overall: 4.4/5

Jeff and I were in a long distance relationship for two and half years. We were fortunate though. From November 2009 to June 2012 we were together every month but one. We packed our time together. Our visits went so fast, we had one rule: no one could talk about the pending doom of separation until the drive (or metro ride) to the airport. We didn't want to waste our time wallowing in self-pity. This meant I sobbed down Hawthorne Boulevard more times than I can remember, and got plenty of stares on the Blue Line to Reagan, but it was worth it knowing that our time together wasn't wasted holding back the inevitable.
We knew this summer was going to be a whirlwind, but July has disappeared. We left July 4th for two weeks on a service trip to Brazil with our students. Jeff left this Sunday for our very last trip to Forrest Home with our Middle Schoolers. In between we have started packing, applied for visas, spent too much time on the phone with the Department of Education and tried to wrap ours heads around all the small things that need to be cancelled or amended or postponed.
But, I don't want to spend the rest of our time in Ventura concerned about the transmission on a car that needs to just make it a few more weeks. In the next 35 days, we will be on a boat in Lake Arrowhead with our high school students, celebrating the 50th anniversary of our church, standing up at the wedding of a wonderful friend, cheering at the baptism of an incredible young woman, going to baseball games and synchronized swimming competitions, and eating large amounts of Mexican food with the people we love most. This is going to be a long ride to the airport, but if a bi-costal relationship has taught me anything it is that you can pack a lot of joy into whatever time you have.

For Don and Sally Anderson
"Eschewing the merely picturesque"
the flat high desert
gets you anyway.
One distant cone of mountain;
another one, with snow. El Capitán,
La Sierra Blanca.
One strip mall. Various UFOs.
Ristras. Honey, the scene is set,
all right? Tonight let's eat at Sonic,
get the feel of time suspended, oh,
about 1958. We are just three years wed.
Upon dull tan adobes and the parched blond grass
the sunset sky heartbreakingly bestows
festoons of lemon, indigo, an apricot's ripe heart.
Low-riders prowl our road, lights blinking red.

It feels right to say that content marketing is a strategy because it seems to have all of the right answers for organization-wide challenges.
For example, questions like:
The answer? Content marketing.
We run into problems however when we interrogate content marketing directly:
At this point, content marketing begins to stutter a bit. The answers to these questions point to a more fundamental strategy. At this point, it feels like content marketing, while robust, still lacks the versatility of a true strategic level choice.

Week Zero Thursday Weigh-In:
12/29/2016: +1.8 pounds
Total lost: 28 pounds
Current Weight: 202 pounds
Okay, so as you can see my weight went up and I'm starting fresh again. This is because my Christmas cheat day turned into 4 cheat days as I went. I don't really have any good excuses for this. Once those carbs hit my system, even though they felt under control, I still went a little carb crazy and now I have to start again but, hey, this is going to be the last time for a long time.
The one major change that I noticed is that even though I had cheat days, I didn't actually binge to the point of feeling really sick so that is some progress and I also learned some important things.
I went 8 days of strict low carb and 14 days without cheating and what I discovered was that I can live without cheat foods and still be happy with my life. Yeah, the first week is hard as it always is and, yeah, I have go through that again but I'm going to think of it as my atonement for my carby sins lol.
I know now that I can go without cheat foods. I know now that I can have cheat foods and not binge like crazy, but it still sets me off to eat more carbs so I know now exactly what I have to do. And I know now that I can succeed. The thing that messed me up was allowing cheat foods back in on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day even if they were a smaller amount.
What it comes down to is that I can't cheat at all. Not right now anyway. Maybe in six months or a year I can allow one special, higher carb meal but I'm not about to risk my weight loss success on some carby foods again.
From here on out I eat what fits my plan which is 50 and under total grams a day and if I want to celebrate my birthday with some special food, it will be a low carb food.
That's just how it has to be right now and I am ready for it!
I know I can do this and I will do this.
Just watch me!

Glaucoma is a family of eye conditions that typically impairs your peripheral (side) vision and affects about 2% of the population over the age of 40 years old. It is a condition that normally affects both eyes, but not always at the same time and to the same extent. The causes of Glaucoma are generally quite well understood which means Glaucoma Treatment is better than it ever has been. Glaucoma symptoms can sometimes be non-existent as the disease normally happens slowly over many years. There are however different types of Glaucoma such as closed angle Glaucoma that have much more pronounced symptoms.
Although some people assume Glaucoma always causes blindness, this is in fact not true. Providing the disease is caught early, most people never notice an impairment to their vision. Even people with quite advanced Glaucoma can often function very well in everyday life as their central vision is normally unaffected. Tasks such as reading, writing and recognising faces all involve your central vision, which is only affected in very advanced Glaucoma. Even patients with quite pronounced peripheral vision loss often manage with very few problems as their better eye is able to compensate for the visual field loss in the more affected eye.
Glaucoma normally describes a condition in which the Optic nerve in your eye is damaged by increasing pressure (Intra-ocular pressure) which leads to loss of peripheral vision (side vision). The function of your optic nerve is to collect all the information provided by your retina and then send it to your brain (visual cortex) where the image is processed into the image that you 'see'. The optic nerve is extremely fragile and is easily damaged with increasing pressure in the eye. In order to understand Glaucoma it is helpful to understand how your eye pressure is maintained and how problems can occur.
As mentioned above, the symptoms of Glaucoma are often non-existent (this is different for closed angle Glaucoma) and so it is therefore vitally important that you get your eyes tested regularly. It is also worth mentioning that if Glaucoma is detected early then there is a good chance that you will never notice any loss of vision at all. The vast majority of people who develop Glaucoma will only be required to put eye drops in once or twice per day. Other than that, they may be unaware that they have the condition. There are other glaucoma treatments such as surgery, but these are normally not required if the disease is picked up early enough.
There are 3 main techniques that your optician will use to detect Glaucoma and they are as follows:
If your optician in concerned about any of the above results he/she may well refer you to an ophthalmologist.
This information is provided purely as a guide and in no way constitutes medical advice. If you are in doubt about the health of your eyes you should consult your doctor or optometrist.

Qualified Building Solutions Ltd
Builder Category: Auckland Central, Auckland East, Auckland North, Auckland South, and Auckland West
"I have been developing property for 11 years and have worked with many building crews. I started using QBS Ltd this year and have been very happy with their work. They have excellent knowledge of the building industry and have confidently completed some complex building projects for me. All projects have run smoothly from start to finish. They also employ a good team of guys which is important in this industry."
Qualified Building Solutions was started in 2009 by Troy Jury. After 10 years in the high-end residential construction industry including multi million dollar properties in Remuera, 12 storey heavy duty construction projects such as the Rydges Hotel CBD and not forgetting the dozens of 6 week renovations of everyday houses in Auckland, Troy knew that the time had come to put the years of learning into something 'he could call his own' with the idea of supplying a friendly, "no problem's, just solutions!" approach to all projects and clients.
Building a specialised team of carpenters and tradesman was not easy and has taken many years and long hours to form the sharpened, fresh minded company it is today. QBS now has 15 employees including foremen, carpenters, apprentices, labourers, and even a truck driver!
"Troy & Joel are excellent builders and would recommend them for any scale work, I have used them for a number of projects and would not hesitate to use them again"
"Troy dealt with bathroom suppliers on our behalf when necessary which made for a stress free experience. Qualified Building Solutions personally oversaw all tradesmen which ensured all areas were of a very high standard, this included plumbers, painters, tilers and electricians. Overall our bathroom renovation was done in a very short time, with excellent results and at a very reasonable price. The overall result looks fantastic. Thanks to all concerned."

Energy is generally defined as a capacity to do a work. The physicists say, energy can neither be created nor be destroyed. According to a study by Grand View Research Inc, in 2022 the energy industry will have a global revenue of USD 58.59 billion on the cards. Hence, something of such importance should be valued with utmost care and monitored precisely.
Knowing how much energy machines consume over long or short time can empower us to make smart decisions that helps to improve system performance, utilization and save costs. To be able to draw meaningful conclusions, this information needs to be accurate, reliable, and easy to access. Knowing how much energy has been consumed at any given moment it helps us to determine system resources to increase efficiency and manage them. When energy usage changes unexpectedly, this may indicate behavioral changes by the end user or problematic issues that need addressing.
LogFuze serves this market with a high accuracy monitoring solutions that includes analytics and report all the necessary parameters to understand energy consumption and system performance.
Remote Monitoring
The manufacturers generally face the challenge of managing a large base of equipment as some of the machines might fall into mishaps and there is the cumbersome task of making sure all the machines are in good condition for the sake of productivity. However, given today's competitive environment, the manufacturers are in search of a solution for the challenges they have been facing.
Energy is obtained from a variety of sources in the industrial sector. Of the different forms of energy, electrical energy is considered the highest grade of usable energy for its quality and flexibility in transmission, distribution and convertibility with minimal losses and applicability on several end-use equipments.
For instance, generally in the industries, the electric power is supplied either by utility means or via diesel generators. The power is transmitted to the individual systems as they are delegated to carry out the work they are intended to. These systems usually play an important role in the process which in turn makes the consumption of electricity goes haywire due to constant increasing energy costs and giving rise to ecological burdens as well. To monitor the energy consumption, we install a sensors in the systems to extract the data we need. These data are then passed through an IoT gateway and is subjected to monitoring.
HoraData's Remote monitoring is the process of monitoring the data that is been generated from the pre defined parameters of the machine. Since, the data is monitored in real time, any indication of failure, power deviation, short circuits. etc are foreseen and befitting actions will be taken. Thus the manufacturers are rid of the tension of keeping tabs on all of their machines in their base.
Data Science
According to US information Administration, energy consumption across the world will increase by 56% in 2040. As far as the industries are concerned, there will be times which might ask for high consumption of energy during the process. Hence, these industries generally want to use only the amount of energy needed for a specific purpose rather wasting surplus amount of energy in it. This is where the data science steps in. It acts like a sixth sense and analyses the history and trends of the production systems and it will be able to offer insights and analytics for the future, namely on energy loss, power failure, cost of energy consumption, allocation of work, end life prediction. etc. It's key component is the ability to use only the amount of energy needed for each of the individual devices to satisfy the intended purpose. Therefore, the controlling the energy via a rational analysis is done by HoraData pro-actively. Data science can also be used to analyze breakdowns for individual machines. It ensures longevity for the equipment and make sure it is always being maintained in a predictable fashion by flagging variance in parameters that has been monitored. This allows for the operations team to plan things accordingly. This is also aided with cloud-based analytics to generate actionable insights with the help of dashboards and data analytics engines.
HoraData can yield you dramatic savings by highlighting areas of inefficiency so action can be taken. This can reduce the overall amount of energy used within industries, buildings, companies etc. which reduces the cost and the associated environmental impacts. Also, energy efficiency addresses concerns over the environmental impacts by concentrating on carbon footprint, climate change and rising energy prices while at the same time supporting economic growth. Out of this, carbon footprint and global warming has already created startling effects on our planet. Glaciers have shrunk, ice on rivers and lakes is breaking up earlier and plant and animal ranges have shifted. This is why we provide the OEM's and industries with predictive analytics for enabling smart insights for intelligent decision-making on energy efficiency to resist the havoc caused by the release of energy.
To help industries to manage better with their energy, LogFuze has developed energy monitoring with HoraData for the measurement and improvement of energy efficiency. Thus, enabling IoT devices to integrate with each other, it is possible to have an M2M communication. Once this is accomplished, the manufacturers are bereft of the tension of their machines falling into mishaps. Thus saving enormous time, money at the same time making easy decisions based on the energy profile.

FARMINGTON — A Bristol man has been charged a second time with stealing large quantities of wire from his former employer, Amstek Metal of Farmington.
Patrick G. Power, 53, of Lardner Road, was charged Tuesday with first-degree larceny for allegedly stealing about $40,000 worth of wire from Amstek, and then taking it to a metal recycler for money.
Police also charged Power with first-degree larceny in September for allegedly stealing $57,000 worth of wire.
The new arrest is for conduct that occurred at the same time, but was discovered only recently, Farmington police Lt. Colin Ryan said.
The alleged thefts occurred in 2012 and 2013, Ryan said.

Football is back. I should be excited. But I'm not. And that's unusual. The impending football season for me is like the unwanted return of the Genital Herpes which you thought you had shaken off, only to return when you least expect it. This really shouldn't be how I feel.
The Championship is a few days away and is swiftly followed by the return of the Premiership season. Cue adverts from Sky showing that we cannot live without football. But for me that simply isn't true. After the end of the season I was actually grateful. The season finale and in particular Survival Sunday was a heart wrenching, nerve wracking spectacle which few other sports could ever match. A great note to finish on and then to take a good couple of months break before getting all excited about the next season...
....which like a flash has already arrived. But am I bothered? Not really. The two month break has descended into a two month orgy of football rumours/non football rumour which means it's like the season has never ended. I understand that journalists must be having a difficult time of it to be honest. Like school teachers in the 6 week holiday, they have pretty much the square root of f*ck all to do. However, this for me is no excuse to just churn out non stories or link players with clubs a million times over without substance. The Tevez, Fabregas affairs are typical of this. Every time I see an article with either of these players in I just want to take the paper and wipe my arse with it. Am I the only person who thinks it would be way better if the papers just reported things when something was actually going to happen? E.g "Fab signs for Barca for £50 million on a 5 year deal." Now there would be an article worth reading. Instead, all we get is "Fab - should he stay or go?" etc etc. Do I really give a f*ck? Just tell me when the transfer happens and then I will be interested you morons.
The internet and media have changed massively in the last few years and throw Twitter into the mix and you have a high potential for a cocktail of massive bullsh*t and conjecture. Can we really believe anything anyone says these days? Let's take Daniel Sturridge for example. He has been linked with about nearly all 92 teams in the football league by my estimate (slight exaggeration perhaps). I mean, this is clearly a farce, newspapers are clearly taking a wild stab in the dark in order to try and claim that they got the exclusive right. Is this really what journalism is about? I am sure a few of you will be saying I should just avoid all football news but for it's nearly impossible these days and at most times its unavoidable.
The lack of a break has not been helped by Europe. Stoke and Fulham are playing some farmers in Iceland whilst still arranging pre season friendlies. What the hell? Why bother even having a break at the end of the season these days? For me, it's just too much. In former years, the lack of any real action in the mid season break (not sexual) would mean that I could not wait for the new season to start, with new signings abound. I do not even feel as though the old season has finished. It's still lingering, much like an old fart. Obviously, in a couple of months I will be back in the football groove and all will be fine and dandy. I just wish that the last couple of months could have been a more football-less affair. A bit like a game at the Brittania Stadium.

P is for ... Painted (Silks)
When I was in Vancouver during February break this year, I ended up spending about four hours on Granville Island while my friend was in class. I stumbled across some absolutely amazing little shops and stores that sold wonderul pieces of art.
Alarte Silks is definitely one of those places. Everything is handdyed and no two pieces are the same. The ladies that I met while I was perusing their wares were friendly and helpful and allowed me to wander to my heart's content. I took several pictures of their wonderful pieces, though only two would upload for me here. Their site has more for you to see.
Scarves are one of those things that add to an outfit, whether it be the colour it provides or the layer or texture. And these are no exception. If you are ever in that area, make sure to drop by and take a look at what they have to offer. Even if you can't afford to buy anything at the time, the pieces are a treat to look at and a definite work of art.
