Court backs ban on abortion procedure - Yahoo! News
Court backs ban on abortion procedure - Yahoo! News
WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court upheld the nationwide ban on a controversial abortion procedure Wednesday, handing abortion opponents the long-awaited victory they expected from a more conservative bench.But the fanatics for death-at-all-costs aren't happy. It isn't that they care how the death comes, just that they have unlimited access to murder.
Abortion rights groups as well as the leading association of obstetricians and gynecologists have said the procedure sometimes is the safest for a woman. They also said that such a ruling could threaten most abortions after 12 weeks of pregnancy, although government lawyers and others who favor the ban said there are alternate, more widely used procedures that remain legal.And don't think for a minute that all the prayers for the end to abortion were not the reason Kennedy switch sides to tip the scales for the pro-life ruling.

Hospice Residence Care – Dina's Story
Words can't describe how happy we were when we received the call. After a turbulent journey in hospital palliative care and at home, a suite had become available for my Dad at St. Joseph's Hospice.
When we first arrived at Hospice, one of the lovely nursing staff greeted us at the door and got us settled into Dad's suite. We felt welcomed right away. With private balconies and spacious living rooms for families, the beauty of the space is like a home-away-from-home, but the people made the care extra special.
The nursing and support staff, physicians, and volunteers were patient, compassionate, and always accommodating. My Dad wasn't the easiest resident at Hospice, but every staff member and volunteer took the time to get to know him, going over and above to make every moment matter. Whether that was an extra serving of his favourite meal, macaroni and cheese, or talking at his bedside till late at night, all of the compassionate people at Hospice made a significant impact on my Dad's final days.
I felt like I was in a different world because this level of care was unlike anything we had received before. Hospice supported not only my Dad but also our entire family. I can't begin to describe how comforting that felt for all of us while going through such a challenging journey.
Believe it or not, one of the most beautiful moments was the day Dad passed away. The nurse called me at the office to give me the news. I was still in shock, even though this moment was inevitable. Private time with Dad was provided for our family with a lovely memorial tribute given by the staff at the front entrance where he was covered with a beautiful quilt. They even had a little frame with Dad's name acknowledging his passing. The team read a beautiful passage we choose before he departed, and our family accompanied Dad down the elevator until he was put into the car and drove away. Truly a beautiful memory.
My experience with Hospice will stay with me forever. Although this was a difficult time, there were many happy moments and conversations shared by all of us with Dad. Having been in an environment like Hospice allowed us to focus on spending quality time with Dad, and I cannot tell you how grateful we were to have this time without the added stress of his care.
It is this experience which gives me the strength to advocate for others. St. Joseph's Hospice has helped me understand the final stages of our life journey in a more positive light. It has given me a renewed faith in people and about death. When I think of my Dad in his final days, I remember him in a positive way – all because of St. Joseph's Hospice. My Dad could not have been in a better place, and our entire family will be forever grateful for the support we received from this outstanding charitable organization.

I'd like to think that when the zombie apocalypse occurs, I'll be well prepared and ready to take down the horde of shuffling undead. Dead Rising and Dawn of the Dead have taught me how to survive in a shopping mall. 28 Days Later has taught me that sticking together and staying away from rage-infected monkeys are, both, good ideas. Resident Evil has taught me that walking properly, rather than like a tank, is crucial to staying alive. Shaun of the Dead taught me that killing zombies to Queen is awesome and a good old British pub is the safest place to go. Now with Left 4 Dead added to my collection of zombie apocalypse training guides, I'm pretty much sorted. Come the inevitable zombie uprising, I'll be there; cricket bat and shotgun in hand.
Left 4 Dead really is unlike any game you will play this year. Sure, co-op and multiplayer have been around for a long time, but never have they been moulded with such style, such finesse, such…fun. It's like a delicious gory cocktail. Take 4 parts co-op, 8 parts online, 2 parts gore and blood, 3 parts zombie apocalypse, 1 part tomato juice, 2 parts gin, add crushed ice and serve it all in a zombie skull.
The campaign mode places four survivors, either AI or human controlled, into a zombie infested world and forces them to fight through a number of campaigns, and a much higher number of zombies. There is no story as such, the only story is told through scribblings on the wall, as also seen in Portal, and we don't know much about each survivor's past. This is one of the major flaws in the game, but I honestly didn't care, especially when I was having so much fun reducing a zombie to a mere pile of limbs on the floor. The main aim of each campaign is to get from point A to point B alive. Simple and not too taxing right? Wrong.
A little thing called the Director AI steps in to make your journey a living hell. I honestly suspect that the Director is a troubled man somewhere in Valve HQ. Some say it's Gabe Newell himself, pulling the strings. Whatever the Director is, it's beautifully sadistic and makes Left 4 Dead one of the most replayable titles I have ever had the pleasure of holding in my hands. The Director basically mixes things up a bit each time you play. You will never play the same game again. EVER. Each time you play, something is different. Zombies may be placed in different parts of the level, items may be moved around and hordes may rush at you at different points during the game. Nothing is ever kept the same. Each play through is completely different, like playing a new game. It makes each play a lot more tense as you don't know what is going to happen, and when. It also adds an unbelievable amount of replayability.
This mixing up of the game makes Left 4 Dead one long adrenaline rush. You may start off fighting for your life the moment you leave the safe room, to then move into a quieter area. Even in these quieter areas it can still be tense. You have a few bullets left in your shotgun, no health packs or pills and then you accidentally knock into a car setting off it's alarm. In about three seconds, a horde of zombies will be coming your way to rip you limb from limb. You bunker down in a corner, all 4 of you, and try and pick off as many as you possibly can while trying to stay alive, until the onslaught is over. It finally ends and your heart is beating fast and your blood is pumping. By the end of the seemingly short 1 hour campaigns you will feel mentally and physically drained due to the rush after rush after rush of excitement. It's this that sucks you into Left 4 Dead.
Co-op is the only way to play Left 4 Dead though. Playing solo is fun, especially since the AI controlled survivors are pretty self reliant and will help you out when needed while covering your back, but playing with friends really adds to the experience. For the purpose of this review (*cough* yeah right) I decided to set up a late night co-op session with a bunch of fellow games writers. For the next 4 or so hours there was much shouting, swearing, bickering, laughing, screaming and sighing. And it was the best experience I have had on Xbox LIVE. Be it because of the failed plan to hold off a bunch of zombies in a derelict construction yard, or an attempt to hold ground until the army come and pick us up from an old farmhouse, or the screaming of my team mates as I accidentally went through a metal detector, alerting the horde, every second was amazing. The communication element really shakes up how you play the game. Me and my team were planning strategies, most of which failed because we didn't think them through properly, and screaming swear words as a Hunter leaps at us and rips us apart. It makes you feel as if you are actually fighting through a zombie wasteland, instead of sitting on your couch. We played until the early hours of the morning only stopping because: A) I hadn't slept in so long and B) I had to be up in about 4 hours. Left 4 Dead had suck it's infected teeth into our necks and was not letting go. We had become it's bitch.
For those who get bored of co-op, which is highly unlikely, there is Versus to makes things a bit more interesting. This pits two teams of four against each other through two of the campaigns. First off, it is disappointing that only two of the campaigns are playable as I would have loved to have played as the Infected in Dead Air. Anyway, one team play as the Survivors and the other as the Infected. The Survivors have to get to the safe room with as little damage taken as possible and in the quickest time possible. This then earns them points. The Infected's job is to stop the Survivors from getting to the safe room, by any means possible. However, playing as the Survivors just seems…well…boring. The tension of the campaign has gone because the Infected players respawn after 30 seconds, leaving you no time to recover from a previous onslaught of Infected. The thing that made the campaign so much fun were the quiet sections where everything seemed just that little bit too quiet. Now, you're just getting continually attacked by the Infected players every few seconds and it just, honestly, becomes monotonous.
Playing as the Infected, however, is so much fun it's ridiculous. You get to play as the little buggers who caused you so much hardship in the campaign: the Hunter, the Smoker, the Boomer, the Tank, whilst the Director takes control of the ordinary Infected. The Infected force you to play in a completely different way. Instead of running out and killing all the survivors, you need to think methodically. You need to stalk the rooftops, strategise your attacks to coincide with your team mates to really catch them off guard and pick each survivor off. Just the fact you get to play as the Infected is fun enough, but the whole aspect of having to play differently really adds to the fun.
As well as playing brilliantly, the game looks and sounds fantastic too. The derelict houses, the ruined airports and dark woods all the add to the atmosphere of a post-apocalyptic, zombie ruled world. The detail on the zombie faces, as well as the detail on the Survivor's faces really make it seem as if this could actually happen and these are real people. Some of the set pieces, such as the exploding aeroplane, are just spectacular to just pause and watch. The music adds to the tension and atmosphere. It always seems to chime in at just the right moments. It can chime in to alert you of a Witch in the vicinity or to add tension to an oncoming wave of zombies. The shouts of "Grabbin' pills" and the cries of "Molotovs here" make it seem as if the Survivors could be a rag-tag bunch of people who are left to fend for themselves by helping each other out, and the contextual dialogue really adds to this.
Left 4 Dead is a fantastic game. Not exactly flawless, but tremendous fun. And by tremendous fun, I mean the equivalent of riding the best roller-coaster in the world, whilst eating the best piece of cake in the world, whilst the most beautiful woman in the world does unspeakable things to you. In essence, an orgasmic thrill ride….with cake.
Oh, and I've got dibs on Louis!

Psalm 21:1 "O LORD, the king rejoices in your strength. How great is his joy in the victories you give! 2 You have granted him the desire of his heart and have not withheld the request of his lips. "Selah""
David is rejoicing in the victories and blessings the Lord has given him. In verse 2 he says, "You have granted him the desire of his heart and have not withheld the request of his lips." David also wrote the same thing in Psalm 20.
Psalm 37:4 also says that the Lord will give you the desires of your heart. When the Lord repeats something he obviously wants us to take note of it. He wants us to understand that he gives us the desires we have in our heart and then he makes it happen. When I first came to the Lord, I suddenly wanted to go to Bible College. It was a very exciting time with many people coming to the Lord. Our little fellowship grew immensely with new believers who were on fire for the Lord. But out of that group I was the only one who had a passionate desire for Bible College. It changed the course of our family's life. I resigned from my position as a school administrator, we sold our house, shipped our goods to be stored and headed to bible college. At college I encountered the Lord in prayer where I felt like I was wrestling with him. At the end of that long day I had a deep desire to be a pastor. Where did that come from? I wanted to be an evangelist. Pastoring up to that day was never in my mind. But He placed it there. Then He fulfilled this desire, as I could not make it happen.
How many of you have a desire in your heart that you can't explain? How many of you have even shared it? When I did, my wife was far from being in favor of it. I could have left it buried in my heart but I didn't. I prayed and prayed and prayed for Him to bring it about. He did not withhold the requests of my lips. It was far more than I expected or was prepared for but I wouldn't change it, I'd do it all again. It is where I feel His pleasure.
David at the end of verse 2 says, "Selah", which means pause and think on that. I encourage you to think about what I asked. Have you called out to the Lord about your heart's desire or have you buried it in the depths of your heart? Selah!
Prayer: "Lord, I yield this desire that you have placed in my heart to you. I ask that you would do whatever is needed to bring it to pass, in Jesus' name I pray."

I have had so much trouble with my computer/internet connections/servers etc for over a week. So frustrating. I have had to borrow a friend's WIFI modem so I can at least look at my mail and FHUK of course! Also connected FHUK to Facebook, so I don't miss out too much on posts. My new internet server is CRAP ! not happy with having a very poor connection but hopefully I can get things sorted out soon. Having to resort to my small netbook. Love to read the posts on this site. Thanks everyone

Centrica plc isn't the only value trap I'd avoid right now
Centrica (LSE: CNA) was in the headlines on Monday after news emerged that it was taking the axe to its much-criticised standard variable tariff (SVT). It will stop offering the deal to new customers from next April, it was announced.
Mark Hodges, chief executive of Centrica Consumer, said that the move "[is] vital to encourage customers to shop around for the best deal and make informed choices about energy" and comes in response to rising pressure on suppliers to cut their charges. Last month prime minister Theresa May vowed to finally introduce price caps to put an end to "rip off" power bills, with one eye clearly on those placed on SVTs.
Out of gas?
The rising pressure on household budgets that government is seeking to address is reflected by the steady stream of customers that are flowing from the 'Big Six' suppliers like Centrica and into the arms of cheaper, independent providers.
Latest data from trade association Energy UK showed 600,000 customers switching energy account in October, an 11% year-on-year rise.
And worryingly for the likes of British Gas, almost a third of swappers last month moved to a smaller supplier. Clearly Centrica may have to continue with further rounds of profit-sapping tariff reductions to stop its customers base steadily evaporating. The number of accounts on its books fell a further 4% between January and June from the same 2016 period, to 25,450.
These troubles are expected to push earnings at the FTSE 100 business 6% lower in 2017, a result that would mark the fourth consecutive annual drop, although a 2% rebound is predicted for 2018.
And I reckon the possibility of Centrica extending this record of bottom-line reverses is extremely strong given the pressures at British Gas and the uncertain outlook for the oil market. So even though Centrica deals on a low forward P/E ratio of 10 times, and carries a pretty-impressive dividend yield of 7.4%, I for one won't be investing any time soon.
Plenty of headaches
Mitie Group (LSE: MTO) was also in the headlines in start-of-week trade following the release of half-year numbers. And like Centrica, I reckon share pickers should give the business a wide berth right now.
Mitie announced that, even though revenues increased 4% between April and September, to £959.7m, the cost of heavy restructuring had caused operating profit to tank 38.1% year-on-year to £14.8m.
The order book remained stable for the first fiscal half, at £5.9bn. But I am not convinced that the business will continue defying gravity given the intensifying headwinds battering the British economy. Meanwhile, rising debt adds an extra problem as this rose to £172.6m in the first half from £147.2m a year earlier.
What's more, Mitie also announced today that is being investigated once again by the Financial Reporting Council (FRC), this time "in relation to the preparation and approval" of financial statements for fiscal 2016.
City analysts are expecting Mitie to flip into the black in the year to March 2018, with earnings of 15.8p per share expected, rebounding from the 14.7p loss of last year. And earnings are expected to rise again, to 19.7p next year.
I reckon the chances of these fluffy forecasts being cut to ribbons in the months ahead are high, however, and a forward P/E ratio of 14.3 times is not low enough for me at least to willingly hand over my investment cash.

Trump derangement syndrome infects the nuclear disarmament movement
The campaign to oust President Trump by any means necessary has been recognized by some as an ugly factional war within the American ruling elite, but the anti-Trump, anti-Russia crusade, based on many fabrications,[1] has been extremely successful in duping a large segment of the intelligentsia and the general population to go along with the narrative that wants to say all was well before, and all will be well again if the nation's natural ruling class is restored to power with the help of the CIA, FBI and NSA. We are witnessing "tribal warfare inside the ruling class, happily joined by the wage serfs of each tribe."[2]
One might have hoped that the nuclear disarmament movement would stay above this factional war over who will rule the American empire. Nuclear disarmament activists are often assumed to have an international perspective and unbiased critique of all the nuclear powers. The slightest sign of bias toward one nuclear state would instantly discredit any disarmament group as a propaganda tool, betraying their supporters and wasting their donations. Unfortunately, some individuals and organizations in the anti-nuclear movement have taken the anti-Trump side in the factional war, expressing more interest in American dominance and partisan politics than in their stated goals. A glaring example of this shift in priorities was on display in two recent interviews on The Real News Network. First, Aaron Mate interviewed Joe Cirincione, president of Ploughshares Fund, a nuclear disarmament organization founded by sculptor Sally Lilienthal in 1981. Joe is also described proudly on the Ploughshares website as "an MSNBC contributor, regularly making appearances on The Rachel Maddow Show."[3] Referring to the July 2018 Helsinki Summit between the American and Russian presidents, Joe had this to say about the meeting:
Both of these men [Trump and Putin] are dangerous. Both of these men oppress basic human rights, basic freedoms. Both of them think the press are the enemy of the people. Putin goes further. He kills journalists. He has them assassinated on the streets of Moscow. Donald Trump does not go that far yet. But I think what Putin is doing is using the president of the United States to project his rule, to increase his power, to carry out his agenda in Syria, with Europe, et cetera, and that Trump is acquiescing to that for reasons that are not yet clear.[4]
In a subsequent interview a few days later, Russian historian Stephen Cohen pointed out what was extremely lamentable about these views coming from a prominent nuclear disarmament activist at the head of a very well-funded American organization:
How is it that Joe, who was once one of our most eminent and influential, eloquent opponents of nuclear arms race, who was prepared to have the president of the United States negotiate with every Soviet communist leader, including those who had a lot of blood on their hands, now decides that Putin kills everybody and he's not a worthy partner? What happened to Joe? I'll tell you what happened to him. Trump. Trump has driven once-sensible people completely crazy. Moreover, Joe knows absolutely nothing about internal Russian politics, and he ought to follow my rule. When I don't know something about something, I say I don't know. But what he just said is ludicrous. And the sad part is... that once-distinguished and important spokespeople for rightful causes, like ending the nuclear arms race, have been degraded, or degraded themselves by saying things like he said to the point that they're of utility today only to the proponents of a new nuclear arms race. And he's not alone. Somebody called it Trump derangement syndrome. I'm not a psychiatrist, but it's a widespread mania across our land. And when good people succumb to it, we are all endangered.[5]
Joe Cirincione's comments suggest that he is now more than ever interested in being a pro-American, Democrat, anti-Trump partisan than in pursuing his organization's advertised goals. Five years ago he was interviewed on Fox News when Syria's chemical weapons were in the news, and when asked if we should trust the Russians, he stated:
We deal with our adversaries. We deal with our enemies. Eisenhower negotiated with Stalin [sic: Khrushchev]. Nixon made friends with Mao. You deal with people you don't like, that you are adversaries with, but you do it for the national security interests of the United States.
These words show that Stephen Cohen is correct. Joe Cirincione has changed in recent years. However, the change is not that drastic or surprising. It seems that the interest in nuclear disarmament always took second place to "the national security interests of the United States." His response on Fox News implied that indeed the Russians cannot be trusted, but the conversation included no balanced statement about whether the Russians could trust the United States. In the same interview Joe also said Syria's arsenal of chemical weapons was a threat to Israel, but he avoided saying at the same time that Syria and other countries in the region feel threatened by Israel's nuclear arsenal—and this comment was from a man whose organization was founded upon the goal of nuclear disarmament, not on chemical weapons issues.
In the early 1990s, the founder of Ploughshares, Sally Lilienthal, gave a $5,000 grant to MIT physicist Theodore Postol for him "to finish a technical paper that exposed the Pentagon's exaggerated claims of the effectiveness of Patriot missiles during the Persian Gulf War."[6] More recently, without support from Ploughshares, Postol has investigated Syria's alleged use of chemical weapons and concluded there is no evidence for the numerous attacks that the Western media has been quick to attribute to President Assad.[7] This skeptical counter-narrative received almost no attention in the media, and when it did, the skeptics were accused of being "stooges" for the Syrian government. One has to wonder in this case if Ploughshares has drifted far away from its founder's original vision, trading away integrity in order to have a voice and be a player within the Washington establishment. Why is it no longer supporting dissenting voices like Theodore Postol? Readers can assess the 2017-18 list of grantees for themselves to see, who, in addition to the NATO mouthpiece and designated Facebook censor, Atlantic Council, now receives support from Ploughshares.[8]
The roster of board members at Ploughshares is almost entirely American, with no Chinese, Russian, French, Indian, Pakistani, or North Korean representation. The board consists of heads of think tanks, corporate leaders, lawyers, former politicians, and even the vice president of the Investment Management Division of Goldman Sachs. Another board member is the former director the US Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory's Center for Global Security. The line between NGO and GO is completely blurred here. The "Finances" page of the Ploughshares website lists net assets for 2017 of $33,239,759, with $32,040,357 held in capital reserves. There were new contributions of $6,541,682 and a 14% rate of return ($4,459,538) on the capital reserves added to the contributions. One might ask, if indeed Trump is such a threat to global security, why Ploughshares does not spend the reserve fund like there is no tomorrow. If things are as dangerous as they say, this would be an excellent time go all in on a massive effort to save the world.
During the Cold War, American conservatives often accused the nuclear disarmament movement of being infiltrated by Soviet agents and communists, but since the 1980s the opposite has happened. The movement has actually been infiltrated by guardians of the American empire. Colin Powell, Henry Kissinger and others of their ilk suddenly saw the anti-nuclear light as their communist foe disappeared. Nuclear disarmament became just another cause célèbre for the Beltway think tanks to blend in with the general concern for "international security and cooperation" and "emerging threats" to the unipolar world order. Thus the work Ploughshares supports is far from radical or disruptive, and its message now undermines the purported goal of the organization. I doubt they would give a grant to aboriginal groups fighting uranium mining on their territories, or rural communities trying to stop a nuclear waste disposal project. The Nuclear Hotseat podcast, Radiation and Public Health and other worthwhile anti-nuclear projects operate on small donations and unpaid contributions, but one must keep in mind that they speak out about the connections between nuclear energy and nuclear weapons, so they don't have Goldman Sachs executives and national security experts clamoring to serve on their boards.
China, Russia and other adversaries, and now even the loathed US president himself, are seen as obstacles that have to be dealt with before we can do the real work on nuclear disarmament. Perhaps on some magical day in the future, there will be no more "tyrants," "strongmen" and "despots" to wave fingers at. The US will intervene and perfect their societies, and then it will negotiate nuclear disarmament while brandishing the conventional arsenal of the trillion-dollar Pentagon budget. This is the implicit assumption of a broad segment of the American nuclear disarmament movement, and unfortunately many well-meaning people in the anti-nuclear movement fail to see it or dare to call it what it is.
Stephen Cohen's question, "What happened to Joe?" may in fact be the wrong question to ask. Nothing happened to Joe. He has just revealed himself as what he always was—a partisan for American supremacy. Considering the interests and tendencies of the people on the board of Ploughshares Fund, and those of many of the donors, "hyperventilating over the phantom collusions of Donald Trump"[9] is exactly what one should have expected. It is time for individual activists to be much more discerning in choosing the anti-nuclear groups they will support, and time for a truly international group to form outside of such partisan, nationalistic and hybrid quasi-governmental organizations.

"There's a great incentive on the part of… the military-industrial-intelligence-media-congressional complex… to keep tension with Russia at high levels… That's why you got absolutely no balanced reporting on the [July 2018 Helsinki] summit. Why should we be so afraid of the summit? People say, 'Oh, you can't let Trump get together with Putin one-on-one. He'll clean his pockets.' Give me a break. What can happen? … one just has to read Daniel Ellsberg's latest work on the doomsday machine… to realize how close we've come in the past and how it makes no sense at all to have these incredible things like the Trident submarines… with the capability of destroying the world. It sounds ridiculous, but that's what it is: destroying the world. So when we got a chance to talk with Russians and everybody was saying, [as in the New York Times headline] 'Oh my god, Trump, in Putin's presence, expresses doubt about US intelligence. Oh my god!' Well, there is ample reason for him to express doubt about US intelligence coming from James Clapper who said the Russians are almost genetically driven to lie. So what should the headline have been? The headline should have been 'The Doomsday Clock has been moved from two minutes to midnight to four minutes to midnight.' The fact that we're now talking to the Russians at the highest level may mean something good can come out of this."

The Library Music Film is screening in Glasgow on the 31st May with DJs playing, what we're sure will be, a fine selection of Library records. This is gonna be ace, advance tickets only
DJs: 5.00pm-7.00pm
Film screening: 7.00pm - 8.40pm (99 mins)
Some of the best music ever written… and it was never made available to the public. Composed and recorded for use in film, television broadcasts and advertising, and covering every genre, instrument and atmosphere, library music was an an off-the-shelf option cheaper than commissioning a composer to score a soundtrack.
In its golden era from the late 1960s to the mid-1980s, thousands of albums were created by the world's greatest composers using full orchestras in the best recording studios, with the best engineers and recording equipment. Only available on vinyl and only given to industry professionals, library music albums had tiny production runs; sometimes only 200 copies were pressed, and most were destroyed in the 1990s. Despite its rarity, this music now has a loyal and growing following of DJs, tastemakers, record producers, beatmakers, journalists and vinyl enthusiasts, and library music tracks have been sampled to form the backbone of some of the biggest chart-topping singles by contemporary artists.
In a documentary fronted by record producer, composer and enthusiast Shawn Lee, The Library Music Film takes viewers from London across Europe and to California in search of some of library music's pioneers, including Alan Hawkshaw, Keith Mansfield, John Cameron, Barbara Moore, Janko Nilovic, Brian Bennett and Stefano Torossi. And in interviews with DJs and producers including Fatboy Slim, US hip hop stars such as Cut Chemist (Jurassic 5) and Young Einstein (Ugly Duckling), DJ Format, Johnny Trunk, and Marvels soundtrack composer Adrian Younge, we hear why library music continues to play an important role in today's music industry.
In its pursuit of a fascinating parallel universe to the record industry we think we know, The Library Music Film serves up musical innovators past and present, hidden sonic treasures and a lot of laughter along the way.
DJs Mr Divine and Dr Crawford, both long-time collectors of library music, will be playing records in Saramago (CCA Cafe-Bar) before the film screening (5.00pm - 7.00pm). Join us after the film in Saramago for the Art School Degree Show Party, with Divine and guests spinning retro funky grooves...

The song was bootlegged and released previously at the wrong speed and with terrible audio quality. Comes with booklet full of info including the true story behind the GSH sessions and what happened as a result of them. Don't miss out on this one!

BLOOD LAKE is the most fascinating -- and stupefying -- shot-on-video slasher that ever escaped from 1987. A group of unhinged party animals, including adolescent horn-dog Lil' Tony, embark on a weekend trip filled with Jet Skis, a keg of Busch, and an extended game of quarters. But look out! There's a supernatural killer on the loose who wears cowboy boots and a silk shirt with a rose stitched on it! Made by real-life friends from Oklahoma on a real-life vacation, BLOOD LAKE is a rewardingly lethal collision of '80s slasher video-vomit and twisted cinéma vérité madness. From false metal soundtrack hits to gratuitous scenes of people sleeping, this might be the only movie in history capable of receiving a stamp of approval from both David Lee Roth and Andy Warhol.

Coming on both Blu Ray & DVD
After being awakened from the grave, Eric Longfellow (Don Leifert) takes up residence in a sleepy suburban cul-de-sac outside of Baltimore, establishing himself as a respected music teacher while secretly roaming the nearby woods, stalking and strangling young women so as to take over their life force. As residents descend into panic and paranoia, Longfellow's neighbor becomes increasingly suspicious of his unaccounted wanderings, unaware of his evil powers and unquenchable need for fresh victims.
The second feature film directed by Baltimore's best-kept filmmaking secret, the legendary self-taught auteur Don Dohler, FIEND is a meticulously made supernatural suspense thriller. Massacre Video proudly presents this under-seen 1980 ghoul fest in glorious HD, newly restored in 2k from its original 16mm A/B rolls, featuring rare archive interviews with the cast plus much more!

performed. Abdominal tumours, whether carcinomatous, hydatid, or of any other kind, sometimes exert pressure upon the stomach, and thus mechanically interfere with its healthy action.
3. As regards the changes in the coats of the stomach, they belong so exclusively to organic diseases that we shall not enter upon the consideration of them here; but it may be mentioned, that in fibroid disease of the pylorus, the stomach sometimes attains enormous proportions, so that with the pyloric valve close to the pubes, the viscus fills nearly the whole of the abdomen ; and that without such valvular obstruction, the muscular coat becomes sometimes atrophied, and the cavity enormously distended, so that it is unable to contract upon its contents. In this latter case, the principal symptom is the tympanitic distension of the abdomen, with feebleness of digestion. We shall have again to refer to distension of the stomach in speaking of fermentative changes.
The extensive connection of the stomach with other parts of the system, by means of its supply of nerve filaments, leads to frequent disturbance of its function from disorder in other parts; and an intimate acquaintance with these sympathetic maladies is of the utmost importance ; for without this knowledge, not only is the true source of disturbance overlooked, but, as a necessary sequence, the treatment is ineffective, because applied in a wrong direction.
It is not our intention to describe the nerves that supply the stomach, but only to state that this supply is from two sources, 1st, from the large branches of the vaso-motor nerve of the semi-lunar ganglia of the abdomen, by which it is connected, not only with the adjoining viscera in the abdomen, but with nearly every part of the body; this connection gives rise to disturbances of sight and hearing, and of the intellectual and sensory centres generally; the 2nd source is from the pneumogastric nerve, which also supplies the lungs and the heart.
Perhaps the most important form of sympathetic disturbance of the stomach is that connected with disease of the brain ; and the consideration of this is the more necessary, because in such cases the true nature of the malady is often overlooked. There are some peculiarities, however, which serve to distinguish this form of malady ; in one class the subjects are young, of an active mind, intelligent, and precocious. There may be some headache, and temporary disturbance of vision, grinding of the teeth, disturbed nights, and restless activity of mind during the day; they are generally precocious children, of bright and joyous disposition ; and, without any very apparent cause, vomiting is set up, and the illness is regarded as a " bilious attack." This may soon be followed by more marked symptoms of cerebral disturbance, by severe headache, convulsion, and gradually increasing coma, in fact, by all the symptoms of acute hydrocephalus; or there may be a succession of such attacks, each slight in itself, but, as the mind is allowed to rest, and the irritation of the brain is diminished, the diseased state gradually subsides. This repeated disturbance of the brain favours the deposition of tubercular deposit in the membranes, and at length acute hydrocephalus is developed to the inexpressible anguish of the relatives of the child. Sometimes the symptoms of cerebral affection are preceded by those of gastric remittent fever, and then it is difficult without careful investigation to decide, whether the disease is really wholly abdominal in its character, and whether the brain disease is not secondary rather than primary.
In another class of cases, the patient is more advanced in life, it may be in early manhood, when severe pain in the head, and vomiting without any real gastrie disturbance, usher in most serious and fatal disease.
The same sympathetic connection is witnessed after concussion of the brain; as the patient begins to rally from the first effects of the blow, vomiting is a frequent result; and, if local inflammation of the membranes of the brain takes place, the irritability of the stomach is sometimes excessive, especially if the disease extend to the origin of the pneumogastric nerves.
These cases are often set down as "bilious attacks," which is the most serious mistake that could be made, for the sole attention is then directed to the stomach and the liver; the nature of the malady is overlooked, and the treatment misdirected. In the diagnosis of these cases, where irritation of the brain is the cause, the head is hot, the pupils generally small, the tongue clean, the abdomen contracted, and the bowels confined.
Another cause of sympathetic disturbance of the stomach is disease of the spinal cord; but although irritability of the stomach is sometimes to be traced to this source, more frequently the pain at the scrobiculus cordis, and flatulent distension of the stomach and
abdomen, are really signs, the one of irritation at the peripheral extremity of the spinal nerves, the other of paralysis, which prevents the muscles forming the abdominal parietes, and the involuntary muscular fibre of the intestine from contracting in their normal manner.
In disease of the lungs, especially of a tubercular kind, the implication of peripheral branches of the pneumogastric nerves in the morbid action sets up reflex disturbance of the stomach; we find delicate strumous subjects thus affected with such extreme sensibility of the stomach, that food of almost every kind is at once rejected; no cough may be present, but on examining carefully the apices of the lungs, some difference in the resonance on percussion will be found, and the respiratory murmur will be heard more feeble than natural, or irregular, or the expiratory murmur coarse and prolonged, even if more advanced indications of organic change do not exist. This state of sympathetic gastric disturbance sometimes subsides as the phthisical condition becomes fully developed, or it may continue to harass the patient throughout the whole course of the complaint.
It may be argued by some, that the gastric altogether precedes the pulmonary mischief, and that in the weakness from the impaired power of digestion we have the cause of the low organised deposit in the cell structure of the lungs. If such were the case, the gastric disease would continue at least pari passû with

Zagreb Travel Guide
Introduction to Zagreb
Those spectacular coastal images of Croatian summers often cause Zagreb to be overshadowed, unjustly so. Sure, you'll have a killer time on the Croatian coast, but there is so much to discover in Zagreb as well with its 19th century palaces, medieval towers, ancient cathedrals and open-air markets. It's the kind of place where Eastern Europe meets Western Europe. You'll find old-world, Austro-Hungarian architecture and lo-fi pubs mashed up with high-fashion boutiques and fancy restaurants.
Located in the northwest of Croatia on the Sava River, Zagreb has been the capital of Croatia since it claimed independence from Yugoslavia in 1995. It's a place where locals love to get out in the sunshine, take time out of their day for life's little joys and appreciate a peaceful life after years of war and struggle.
Despite the years of war, you'll still find many buildings intact. There's even an area in Zagreb that dates back to the 1st century. This old settlement was once a Roman town, but is now known as Šćitarjevo.
And, while it's not on the coast, you can still be a water baby here. Head to Jarun Lake to swim and go boating. You can even put your dancing shoes on here and go for a boogie at the lakeside disco. But if you're not an outdoorsy sort, you can spend your holiday in Zagreb exploring the many museums, galleries or maybe take in a concert – there always seems to be one happening.

You may have missed this article amongst all the transfer speculation but Qbase have secured a new high profile signing in former Everton FC man Jim Fantozzi. Jim joins Qbase as Customer Journey Manager and will be working alongside veteran Rob Jones.
Jim Fantozzi has had an illustrious career having spent the first 8 years working for marketing agencies Cheetham Bell and BJL, before transferring to Everton FC in the 2007/08 season.
At Everton FC Jim spent 7 years working as Marketing Services Manager and produced a number of highly effective and creative marketing campaigns. Jim also embraced business insight technologies such as FastStats and was an integral part of the team who brought data driven marketing to the club.
"Joining Qbase has been fantastic. It is the perfect challenge for me and the ideal next step in my career. I'm certainly looking forward to combining my experience of analytical data and insight with my creative agency background to help our customers drive their marketing strategies and tactical plans. It's really exciting to consider how much of a positive impact I can have on our customer's performance", said Jim Fantozzi, Customer Journey Manager at Qbase.
Jim's background made him the number one candidate for the role of Customer Journey Manager. Combining analytical data and insight knowledge with a creative agency background makes Jim unique because he can look at data through the eyes of a creative marketing professional, but look creative marketing campaigns through the eyes of a data analyst. This means that Jim can help and guide customers through the process by becoming the gateway through which the data and marketing teams can understand one another.
"One of the most exciting things about recruiting Jim to the team is the fact that he has a strong agency background and also understands the needs and wants of customers, because he used to be one. The benefits for our customers is enormous. Unlike a lot of marketing and data professionals, Jim has had significant exposure to both sides of the fence so he is a lot more adept at being able to help customers combine analytical data and insight to drive their creative marketing processes", said Rob Jones, Director at Qbase.
Qbase are now one of the largest and most innovative providers of data driven marketing solutions in the UK.
Our recent business growth is largely attributable to more and more organisations, especially retail companies, choosing Qbase as their providers of effective data driven marketing services.
The future of Qbase in the sports and retail sectors is greatly enhanced with Jim's arrival, which will enable us to provide a greater level of support and expertise to organisations in these spaces and help them achieve higher campaign response rates and sales revenues.

I saw this website "CARMA - Carbon Monitoring for Action" in 2007 and since it was made public, the databases, information sharing, and the presentation has improved and changed.
From the website:
"At its core, Carbon Monitoring for Action (CARMA) is a massive database containing information on the carbon emissions of over 50,000 power plants and 4,000 power companies worldwide. Power generation accounts for 40% of all carbon emissions in the United States and about one-quarter of global emissions. CARMA is the first global inventory of a major, emissions-producing sector of the economy.
CARMA also aggregates data on individual plants to the level of operating companies, parent corporations, and several geographic entities (continents, countries, states/provinces, and cities worldwide, with additional reports for U.S. metro areas, congressional districts, and counties). The database is updated quarterly to reflect changes in ownership, construction, renovation, planned expansions, and plant retirements. CARMA is meant to be a repository of the best available information on power sector carbon emissions."
According to the website, India currently emits 583 million tons of CO2 from 2,147 power plants, of which 377 are tagged as red alerts, producing 597 million MWh of electricity. Readers can also download (and analyze individually), the database of the power plants, along with fuel consumption (by type) and power generation capacity for each country.
Dr. David Wheeler, Senior Fellow at Center for Global Development, announced recently that the CARMA 2.0 will be released later this summer, with improved methodologies for CO2 calculations and better geographical database.
Working paper by Wheeler et al., on CARMA calculations and methodology is available @ "Calculating CARMA: Global Estimation of CO2 Emissions from the Power Sector"

Real wild rice is harvested by hand, from canoes by the Ojibwe tribes who live on the shores of the lakes where the authentic rice (a seed of a lake grass) actually grows. See my Double Mushroom and Wild Rice post for more details. Rarely available outside of the Upper Midwest because of its exorbitant price ($15 per lb, compared to $1.99 for regular rice), Co-opportunity here in Santa Monica sells something called wild rice, produced in California by Lundberg Family Rice company, but it isn't the Minnesota real deal. Sure, it has that earthy smell and taste, but Ojibwe rice when cooked curls up like little worms. While upon first viewing this phenomenon, novices may feel a bit queasy, after one taste it is all dispelled because this soup just tastes so good!
This soup was inspired by politics and the coming of cooler weather. Why politics? Reading the paper and the ongoing depressed state of our economy and all the politics around it all made me think about comfort food and not spending too much money on it. Spying a chicken carcass in the freezer, I knew this soup was the perfect answer.
Homemade chicken stock is a must for this soup; not difficult, just involves some advance planning. Whether you you make bone-in chicken for one meal and have leftover bones or make a baked chicken and have the carcass, either will make great stock. Additional chicken is almost unnecessary for the soup since the stock will give it so much flavor. Simply boil the bones or the carcass with 2 quarts (8 cups) water and a splash of cider vinegar which helps draw the good stuff out of the marrow. Reduce to a simmer for at least 1 hour, longer to concentrate the flavor. Allow to cool and then skim off the fat and particles that have accumulated. Refrigerate or freeze until ready to use.
Chicken and Wild Rice Soup
(serves 2-3)
1 quart (4 cups) chicken stock
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 stalk celery, diced
1 small onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium carrot, diced
2 teaspoons fresh thyme
1/4 cup wild rice
1/2 cup cooked chicken, diced
Heat olive oil in medium sauce pan and add onion and garlic. Saute for 5-7 minutes until translucent. Add celery and carrots and stir and cook another 4-5 minutes until soft. Add stock, thyme, and rice and bring to boil. Cook covered over low heat for 25 minutes. Uncover and add chicken and cook another 5-10 minutes until rice is cooked. Season with salt and pepper as needed and serve.

Police in Helena-West Helena have made an arrest in the shooting death of a teenager and are investigating gunfire that caused a 1-year-old boy to be hospitalized on Sunday, authorities said.
Authorities charged Dayquan Davis, 19, on Thursday in the fatal shooting of 15-year-old Shortavious Williams, Helena West-Helena Police Chief James Smith said.
Williams was shot and killed in the upstairs bedroom of an apartment in the 600 block of York Street in the early morning hours of Jan. 20, according to police.
The 15-year-old victim had moved in with Davis and Davis' mother after he was asked to leave his grandfather's house, authorities said. Smith said police interviewed Davis and concluded he was alone upstairs with the victim at the time of the shooting, but have not determined a motive for the murder.
Davis faces charges of first-degree murder and evidence tampering.
On Sunday afternoon, an infant was injured during a shooting that appears to be unrelated, police said.
According to authorities, two males approached an apartment complex at about 4 p.m. in the 1000 block of Walnut Street, where the 1-year-old child's father was standing outside. The pair forced the man down and used what appeared to be assault rifles to shoot at other people, Smith said.
The man's infant son, who was struck by debris from the shooting while inside the living room of an apartment, was taken to Helena Regional Medical Center and was later released, the police chief said. Authorities said no one else was injured in the shooting, but said they found over a dozen spent casings at the scene.
The investigation is ongoing, according to police. Smith said the shooting may be retaliation for the Jan. 22 murder of 25-year-old Kasey Grant, who was shot outside a Helena-West Helena gas station.

Also, any filter or hydration related product should be cleaned out after every use to make sure you get the most out your item. Whenever filtering water with this item, make sure you are using the cleanest possible water source available with the best water quality, preferably with running water. Long-term filtration of heavily contaminated or muddy water can greatly reduce the longevity of the filter of any water filtering product.

I guessed I wouldn't be able to write when I woke up this morning. I supposed I'd, may be, listen to a bunch of music for the rest of the day.
Though, the plan was a bit different when I went to bed last night. I thought I'd write and I'd write about the play that I had watched in the evening.
The morning, however, had a different plan scheduled. Autumn rains have its own nobleness; which I believe is entirely different than anytime of the year. So, when I woke up to a moist and dreary weather, I felt the urge to unbind and listen to some Fleet Foxes and, may be, watch a movie and make some music later. But it all took a different direction with the emails of all the new posts published by my fellow bloggers.
So I decided to write… But about what…..?
The question came up in my mind since I was not willing to analyze the play and write about it today. But then something caught my attention and it was:
"Wherever You Go Today, You Go Today"
The chorus of Mykonos by Fleet Foxes. And I decided to just start writing.
Fleet Foxes' music always carry the joy, optimism and wonder of Christmas one way or another for me for many years now. Even when, we haven't yet past the margins of Halloween and Diwali, I suppose it's safe to feign that it's almost Christmas on a relatively cold and moist Monday morning and keep up with the good spirit that comes for writing.
Thanks to the song and my fellow bloggers who inspire me to write almost everyday. I have been trying to write at least 4 times a week for sometime now. Sometimes I have been able to and sometimes I have not…. But it's the desire and love for blogging I've always liked to count on. Have an excellent day.

|My Hillsong College Experience| My First Colour Conference
Hey there beautiful people!
Here's a very late post from me.. 🙂 And it's about Colour Conference 2015 at the Qantas Credit Union Arena last March.
I just experienced my first ever Colour Conference. It's been one of my dreams to attend this conference and if I remember correctly, I was supposed to attend three years ago. Anyway! For the first Colour Conference in Sydney this year (there are two), I didn't get to attend but I get to serve.
I remember I was always pasting a smile on my face and never letting the stress of the day worn me out from serving the Lord with a joy in my heart. I loved talking to women of different ages all day long. Even on my breaks (whenever I get one!), I talk random people, just encouraging them and asking them how their days has been. It's pretty rewarding! One time, as I was walking somewhere before I had to serve again, I casually overheard two older women speak in Filipino- my first language! My first thought was it's awesome to see fellow Filipinas attend Colour. Then the Holy Spirit prompted me to approach them when I was already many steps away from them. After struggling with doing it or not, I finally caved in. Turns out they needed help with finding a place and though I'm not the perfect person to help them, I still did! It's so amazing how God answers little prayers through you.
Throughout the first week of conference, I was just filled with delight and I learned so much. From technical stuff such as helping out with the registrations and head count team. To revelations from God through where I was assigned at. For example, while at the Rego team, I was so amazed by how many women from all around the world come to Sydney for this conference: countries from Asia, Africa, Europe, US, and diff parts of Australia and New Zealand! I also learned how there are so many nice women in the world, who are generous and buys extra tickets for their loved ones or friends or even strangers! It's so cool to see how God stirs upon each of our hearts and encourages us to be like Jesus and extend kindness and generosity to others. As part of the head count team, my mind was blown away the first night I served. Why? Because of the amount of women present in that stadium! I may never know the whole amount, but just counting on my sections, it was already thousands! I couldn't believe it!
It's truly a week of stress (especially for other people who did more than what I did), but it was all worth it. Seeing all those women praise and worship the Lord, and give their lives to Him.. whatever it is they carry in their hearts, I just saw the need for a Savior in every eyes I looked at. And witnessing such an event is having my brain seizure in amazement with the Lord. 😀
Before week 2 of Colour, we had a three day break! Thank You Jesus! It was a well needed break for everyone. Then week 2 began! As first year students, we were privileged to be given a chance to sit in and be attendees of the conference. Though we only linked in to the live event but still the same! We heard the messages and boy was it good? It wasn't! Because it was AWESOME.
While I thought God already spoke to me enough, I was wrong. I really did not expect God to speak to me as much as He did the first week. Listening to guest speakers Sheila Walsh and Dawnchere Wilkerson was phenomenal! As well as our very own Ptr Bobbie Houston and the amazing communicator Christine Caine.
For all the sessions, God spoke to me differently but with everything I've heard, everything was still so in tune with where I am at in my life right now. I can't go deeper and tell you all the notes I've written down for all of them, but I can summarize it in a manner I hope you guys will understand.
Both of Dawnchere's messages somehow spoke to me the loudest. In her first session, she spoke about the "Loverush" of the Father. When she first read Psalm 68:5 "You are the father to the fatherless.." I already wept in my seat. I just miss my dad so much it's so bad. See, I've lost him to cancer three years ago and the pain is still something I carry with me. I thought I was already done with my grief, and I think I am because I've already come to terms with it. But sometimes, there are still a lot of moments where I just miss him so much…and it doesn't help that my family right now is sorta broken. BUT! I have a Father who rushes to rescue me, wherever I am, whatever I've been through. God has never left me even for a second. I cried and cried while listening to Dawnchere's message because all the things she said were true! I am ever so grateful to the Father because He never left me nor forsake me just as He has promised.
On her second session, she talked about a message called "Slowburn". I still get the goosies remembering this message. It was just soooo good and powerful. She used the example of a dynamite- it is slow and almost invisible yet steady. But when it explodes, it obliterates everything on its path. A lot of times waiting is so hard. Who am I kidding? It's not just sometimes, it's ALL the time. And it's even worse when we don't see anything happening. We often wonder if our faith is still igniting? Holding on to the Word of God is such a challenge especially when we can't see it. And we are often left frustrated. The reminder is that though we doubt ourselves, we have to remember God is faithful! And Faith is the victory because our faith is not in ourselves but in the Son of God, Jesus Christ! It's not all about us anyway. It's not about me or you, but it's about HIM. Circumstances frustrates us because we don't understand, and it doesn't help that we don't see anything happening. But take FAITH in HIM, because "He has made everything beautiful in His time". So so good!
I don't know what you are going through today. You might be in the season in your life where you are facing extreme trials: could it be in your health? or finances? or relationships or lack thereof of relationships?
I know it's so hard to wait on God, and continuing to be faithful. But just as He rose from the dead, He gives us hope. And in this Hope we find assurance that He will deliver us from all these trials. He is there. Jesus loves you and me. After being refined in the fire, we will all come out stronger and we carry more faith in Him who is able.
If you've reached this far into my post, I'd like to sincerely thank you for reading my post! I hope you were blessed by it. 🙂
Hi there! My name is Jenna. I write and speak to encourage and empower women, equality, freedom, sustainability, and the plant-based lifestyle. For the Kingdom of Jesus. <3

The anti-Christian attitude and aggression in some of the countries are very real, and those working in those areas understand that it is the gospel and a beating.
Pastor Felix's Testimony
Pastor Felix had never done anything like this, but now he felt challenged by the expectation of the villagers, and by faith in His God. He had to make a decision to either move out of his comfort zone or ignore the desperate call of the villagers and go home.
Fervor for the Lord in Burundi
