It was a joyful opportunity to see my father, whom I love very much. I was able to take this quick photo before I left, I apologise for the poor quality of the photo. May the Lord Jesus Christ preserve the life of our holy father and return him safely to our beloved Egypt. God bless you all.

Stitched Up: The Anti-Capitalism Book of Fashion by Tansy E. Hoskins
Reading: Fashion
Sold Out
Beautifully illustrated with specially commissioned designs, Stitched Up delves into the alluring world of fashion to reveal what is behind the clothes we wear. Moving between Karl Lagerfeld and Karl Marx, the book explores consumerism, class and advertising to reveal the interests which benefit from exploitation. Tansy E. Hoskins dissects fashion's vampiric relationship with the planet and with our bodies to uncover what makes it so damaging. Why does 'size zero' exist and what is the reality of working life for models? In a critique of the portrayal of race in fashion, the book also examines the global balance of power in the industry.
Tansy E. Hoskins is a writer and activist, campaigning previously for Stop the War Coalition and the CND, she is now focused on exposing the misogyny, exploitation and wastefulness obscured by the glamour and allure of the fashion industry.

Valerie Thompson survived a horrific crash in the Team "7" Racing Streamliner while attempting to capture the world's fastest motorcycle title during the 28th Annual Speed Week and World Speed Trials competition at the Lake Gairdner dry lake bed in South Australia.
|Photo credit: FIM - Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme
While falling short of the ultimate goal to become the world's fastest motorcycle, the team collected a new speed record and proved the superiority of leading-edge streamliner design by team engineers Denis Manning and John Jans.
Hosted by the Dry Lakes Racers Australia (DLRA), the 28th Annual Speed Week competition was open to cars, motorcycles and trucks. The World Speed Trials, a first-time event for motorcycles only, was held March 17-19. Thompson set a new streamliner record of 328.467 mph (528.616 km/h) during the Speed Week competition on March 15, earning her membership in the Dry Lake Racers Australia 200 and 300 MPH Clubs. She is only the second competitor to gain membership in the DRLA 300 MPH Club and was honored with the "Fast Lady on the Lake" award.
Thompson's attempt to break the world's overall fastest motorcycle record of 376.36 mph* (605.69 m/h) on the last day of the World Speed Trials went horribly wrong with a horrific crash. According to Federation Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM) reports and team video, Thompson had just passed the four-mile marker on a twelve-mile course when the rear of her streamliner rose off the racing surface, sending the vehicle airborne at 343.7 mph. Parachutes slowed the vehicle as it flipped and rolled multiple times, scattering wreckage for more than a mile across the Lake Gairdner salt flats. Thompson walked away with only minor bruises and lacerations.
"We had a singular goal of running 377+ mph to capture the record during the World Speed Trials. We used Speed Week to test and tune the bike, and I'm happy we set a new record and received the 'Fast Lady on the Lake Award'," said Thompson.
"The wreck during the World Speed Trials was unfortunate, but we are not giving up on our quest for the new record. Most importantly, we proved the superiority of the moncoque carbon fiber design and safety features utilized by Denis Manning and John Jans.
"Without their dedication to high speed safety engineering, I would not have walked away - nobody has ever walked away from a 340+ mph crash on a motorcycle. I'd also like to thank the DLRA and all their race course workers who helped ensure my safety," added a grateful Thompson.
"We've not determined what caused the problem - we'll know more once we analyze the onboard data collection systems and review films in more detail," said bike designer and AMA Hall of Fame member Denis Manning. "Valerie did an incredible riding job, doing everything she was supposed to and more. All of us at Team "7" Racing are relieved Valerie did not sustain any life-threatening injuries," added Manning. A video by team member Lou Fischer is available at https://youtu.be/Yl8NDTyeHqg.
Thompson is an eight-time land speed record holder on a variety of bikes ranging from Harley-Davidsons to BMWs and streamliners. She is a member of seven land speed racing 200 MPH Clubs, one 300 MPH Club and the first female to exceed 300 mph in Australia.
*The existing world record was set in 2010 by Rocky Robinson in the twin Hyabusa engined Ack Attack streamliner. It had previously been twice set by Flat Track race legend Chris Carr in an earlier iteration of the current "7" bespoke 3 liter 90-degree V4 engined streamliner. Both teams are engaged in a duel to put the record over the illusive 400 mph mark, with Team Ack Attack having gone to the Salar de Uyuni high altitude (12,500 ft) salt flat in Bolivia - the biggest salt flat on Earth (4,000 sq miles) in the same search for salt that took Valerie Thompson and her team to Australia. The record that Carr set in what was then called the BUB Seven Streamliner (at Bonneville Salt Flats in September 2009) was a two-way average speed of 367.382 mph to set a new FIM-sanctioned International and AMA-sanctioned National land speed record for motorcycles - Carr having piloted it to a 372.534 mph run on the way to that record.

US Ambassador highlights special security relationship at Heathrow
Heathrow hosted US Ambassador to the UK yesterday, who heralded Heathrow's strong security partnership with US authorities, thanking the airport for its efforts to keep the skies safe for transatlantic passengers and make travel easier by expanding e-gate access to American travellers.
Courtesy Heathrow Airport
US Ambassador to the UK, Woody Johnson (above, centre), praised Heathrow as the gateway underpinning the special relationship between the countries on a visit to the airport yesterday. Getting a behind-the-scenes look at how Heathrow operates at 99% capacity, Ambassador Johnson commended Heathrow's joint work with US security authorities to keep transatlantic skies safe.
On behalf of the US government, Ambassador Johnson also delivered a personal thank you to airport colleagues in their efforts to keep the travelling public safe. He noted particularly Heathrow's role at the forefront of aviation security – working across borders to share knowledge, intelligence and scientific data to protect the public both in the UK and internationally. For many passengers travelling from the US, Heathrow is an important gateway to many European and global destinations. By sharing intelligence and mitigating threats together with US authorities, the airport strengthens the global aviation security network and protects a countless number of people across the globe.
Ambassador Johnson also celebrated Heathrow's role as the key gateway connecting the UK to the US – enabling the special relationship to move beyond just foreign policy but also closely connected economies. Last year, over 18 million passengers and over £31 billion of trade travelled between the US and Britain's hub airport, making the US one of the biggest markets that Heathrow serves. Having recently added Nashville, Charleston and Pittsburgh to the impressive line-up of routes, Heathrow now links to a total of 28 cities in the US – the best airport for travel and trade between the US and the UK.
Since the 20th May 2019, US citizens are also now able to use the ePassport gates when arriving at Heathrow. Alongside arriving British passengers, millions of American now benefit from a streamlined immigration experience when travelling through the UK's hub airport.
Heathrow CEO John Holland Kaye said: "There is no other strategic partnership in the world as strong as the special relationship between the United States and the UK. Heathrow is living proof that these aren't just warm words – we serve more US destinations than any other airport in Europe keeping trade between our countries growing and we work incredibly closely with our security colleagues in the US to keep the skies safe. We're delighted to welcome Ambassador Johnson today and extremely grateful for the US government's recognition of the hard work our colleagues deliver every day to keep our passengers safe."
Ambassador Johnson said: "The level of security cooperation between the United States and the UK is simply on another level at Heathrow. Talented British and American officers are working here, side by side, every day to protect passengers from around the world. The work being done here truly sets the benchmark for global aviation security and passenger experience.
"Heathrow is an unbelievably important airport for the United States. More people fly to the U.S. from Heathrow than from any other airport in the world. And for millions of Americans, Heathrow is the gateway to the UK, Europe, and beyond.
"It was great to see the latest developments for Americans arriving at Heathrow – we can now use the e-gates to clear security. This is huge news and will further improve the already great Heathrow experience for the millions of Americans who come here each year."
During the visit security teams from Heathrow and the US committed to maintaining a close relationship and enhancing global security further.

360 degrees VR DRONE productions
Professional 360-degrees drone shots in 8K resolution.
Are you in need of 360 degrees aerial footage? At Kiwi Aerial Shots we can deliver this content as we are an Aerial specialist working with the latest 360 VR camera's. We can make the images using our certified drones but we can also mount our 360VR camera underneath a helicopter. The footage can be used for a 360 degrees social media video or a unique virtual tour!
360-degrees drone technics
A 360 degrees camera films with multiple cameras at the same time the surrounding it is in. By hanging the camera underneath one of our drones we can offer a Virtual reality experience from a bird's eye view! To hang this professional 360 degrees camera underneath our drone we build a special rig. This rig is long enough to get enough distance between the VR camera and the drone so the drone can be easily eliminated in post-production. Also because of this rig we have to catch the drone when landing. This is done by our camera operator that works closely with our certified pilot.
360-degrees drone photography
With different drones and cameras, we can also provide in high-resolution 360-degrees photography. These 360 pictures can be used for all kinds of purposes and one of them is a 360 VR tour like the one above from the Dutch city Delft. The 360 VR photos can be made with our DJI Inspire 2 drone and X5s or X7 camera but to get the maximum result we can also do this with a DSLR camera underneath one of our bigger drones like the Matrice600. These 360-degrees VR photographs are a great way to show people around in a City, amusement park, or another interesting area!
360 video from underneath a helicopter
At Kiwi Aerial Shots we can make you 360 degrees aerial footage from underneath a helicopter. A helicopter gives us the possibility to fly higher and faster than a drone and fly in airspaces it's hard to get permission for our drones. Examples of these are the city center of big cities like Amsterdam, Rotterdam or even above civilian airports. 360 Vr from underneath a helicopter is an exclusive services only Kiwi Aerial Shots can offer!
Professional 360 degrees VR camera's
The cameras we use for our VR recordings are professional high-end camera's and have 2 to 6 lenses. The individual recordings are stitched together with special software to become perfect looking 360 degrees photos or videos. Depending on the resolution of the camera this stitching takes place in the camera or has to be done in post-production.
Let us know if you want more information about the different cameras we use or the post-production options we have to offer. Contact us here.

You should try it. Shooting gets my adrenalin flowing. Which tends to get my conversational index up.
This is a good thing where marriage is concerned. You find yourself talkative. The two of you have something in common of which to converse.
"Yeah, I pushed the trigger on that last mag."
"I was anticipating the recoil on my second mag, and shot low."
"Did you see that guy down on the floor writing notes to himself with a ballpoint pen on his targets?"
"yeah, wasn't that just the weirdest thing?"

Survivors tell Prince William of 'hell' of Japan's tsunami
The Duke of Cambridge today heard a survivor of the 2011 tsunami in Japan describe the scenes of "hell" that followed the all-encompassing giant wave and held an emotional meeting with a couple who lost all three young children.
The prince talked at length with Shinichi and Ryoko Endo, whose son and two daughters died when the tsunami overwhelmed their home in the city of Ishinomaki in northeast Japan. The private conversation was described by a friend of the couple as one of "high emotion".
"I didn't know what I was supposed to live for after losing my treasures," Mr Endo, 46, told a Japanese newspaper after the deaths of his 13-year-old daughter Hana, son Kanta, 10, daughter Kana 8.

As a former veterinary technician, I get asked a lot of questions when I'm chatting with other dog owners. One topic that frequently comes up are questions about dog tranquilizers.
Folks like to pick my brain, comparing the kinds of medications that I've used to whatever their veterinarian prefers to prescribe.
It makes sense. I was a technician for 10 years and worked with many different veterinarians. I have seen just about every kind of tranquilizer currently used in dogs.
When it comes to questions about dog tranquilizers, your best resource is your veterinarian! They can give you specific advice, based on your dog's unique medical history.
If you are looking for some information about tranquilizers and how they are used in dogs, then I hope this article can answers your questions!
Dog Tranquilizers
There are a lot of different drugs that can be used as tranquilizers. But first, what is a tranquilizer anyway?
A tranquilizer is a medication that is given to reduce anxiety or tension. Often the words "tranquilizer" and "sedative" are used the same way, even though they have different meanings. A sedative is used specifically to make an animal sleepy. Many sedatives also work as tranquilizers (it's hard to be tense when you are sleepy), but not all tranquilizers will have this effect.
It is important that you explain what kind of effect you are looking for when talking to your vet about tranquilizers. Are you looking to reduce anxiety, or do you want a sleepy puppy? Once your vet understands why you want a tranquilizer, they can point you to an over the counter or prescription product that fits your needs.
Types of Dog Tranquilizers
Most dog tranquilizers are prescription products. While over the counter (OTC) medications often work as sedatives, they don't tend to be much help in reducing general anxiety or with behavior problems.
Depending on your needs, you may be able to get by with an OTC at times. But if you have a bigger issue, like a dog recovering from surgery, or one with separation anxiety, you will definitely want to go with a prescription product.
Over the Counter
There are no medications specifically marketed as dog tranquilizers that are OTC. But many folks take advantage of the sedative effect of antihistamines, and use them to make their dogs sleepy. Benadryl is probably the most common one used for this reason.
Most often used for loud holidays like New Years Eve, these kinds of products work pretty well, up to a point. While a dog may be a bit sleepy for a few hours after taking the medication, it doesn't take much to wake them up.

For a dog with a mild fear of fireworks, Benadryl may be enough to keep them calm. But for an animal who is truly terrified of fireworks, it doesn't take much to get them excited and override the sedative effects of the Benadryl. They can power through the drug in seconds.
That is the big downside to using an OTC product for a tranquilizer- a bit of adrenaline in your dog's system will quickly make the medication useless. Once a dog is excited, no tranquilizer or sedative will work until they have calmed down.
OTC products are best used for short term, temporary situations lasting no more than a few hours.
There are many different prescription medications used as dog tranquilizers.
Acepromazine is one of the most common tranquilizers prescribed to dogs, but is not an ideal one for noise phobias. Some dogs actually get very reactive to noises while on Acepromazine. But for sedation and mild anxiety, acepromazine can work very well.
Gabapentin and trazodone are also often used in veterinary medicine. These medications act as sedatives. I personally really like both of these options for short-term use. Trazodone especially seems to do a great job in reducing problems with fireworks and other stressful situations. These are both great options for after a surgery.
For dogs with bigger issues, there are controlled drugs like alprazolam that work very well as tranquilizers. Other antidepressants and anti anxiety medications are also used by vets. It just depends on your dog's history and what your vet prefers to prescribe.
Prescription tranquilizers work well for both short and long term use, and can be used for situational anxiety as well as for more general anxiety.
Why Use Dog Tranquilizers?
There are many reasons why someone would want to use a dog tranquilizer. In most of these cases, a prescription product is a better choice than trying an OTC.
Surgery Recovery
It is very common to use tranquilizers after your dog has surgery, to keep them quiet and calm as they recover.
This is especially important for major surgeries, like TPLO's, where a dog has weeks of minimal activity on the horizon. But even for a spay or neuter, a dog who is too active afterwards can cause complications. Sometimes expensive complications.
If your dog is a bouncy, energetic one, then definitely request a sedative to go home with you after surgery!
Behavioral Problems
Most of the time, behavior problems are best treated by a combination of prescription tranquilizers and training. Anxiety in dogs can be expressed in many different ways, from destructive chewing to escape attempts.
Often, these behaviors are also potentially dangerous to the dog (and owners). If you dog has severe anxiety, then medications may well be the difference between life and death.
OTC drugs may work for mild anxiety at times, but they wear off quickly and don't work at all for dogs with bigger problems.
Stressful Situations
This is probably the most common reason for an owner to request a sedative. Whether your dog hates nail trims or the groomer, or gets scared in the car, there are just times you need them to be calm.
Both OTC and prescription drugs can work for these situations. Whether one is a better choice than the other will really depend on your dog. I can get by using Benadryl for the 4th of July holiday, because none of my dogs have a strong reaction to fireworks. But if I had a dog who was really scared of them, I would use a prescription product in a heartbeat.

The key to using a tranquilizer for situational anxiety is to get the medication on board about an hour BEFORE the stressful event starts. Once your dog is worked up, oral tranquilizers simply won't work. You have to dose your dog before they start getting anxious, and re-dose them as needed to keep them calm.
Alternatives to Dog Tranquilizers
There are alternatives to using drugs for anxiety, and it is usually a good idea to try these before you move on to using medications!
Calming Supplements
You can find a lot of calming supplements for dogs online, and I have used many of them successfully.
These supplements are usually given mixed with food, or as a treat. Often featuring the word "calm" in the label, you can find all kinds of options out there. You will have to play around and find what works for your dog.
I particularly like a product called Zylkene, which is made from milk proteins. It has a natural, mild calming effect. It can be given daily or just when you need your dog to relax. It can also be used with other OTC and prescription products.
CBD-based products are also becoming more common. I haven't tried them for anxiety in my dogs, but I have had several clients who use them and loved the effect.
Most of these products will help calm your dog, but their effect is limited. I like to say they work by bringing your dog down a notch on the anxiety scale. If your dog is really anxious, these kinds of supplements alone might not be enough.
Pheromone-Based Products
These products mimic the pheromones produced by mothers while nursing their young. They come as sprays, diffusers and even as collars your dog can wear. All your dog has to do is be around the product (you can't smell it) and the pheromones will reduce their anxiety.
The diffusers and collars can work for a full month at a time. They are great for events like moving, holidays and even vet visits. Many veterinary clinics use pheromone products in house, and sell them as well. You can easily find them online too.
The great thing about pheromone based products is that they can be used alone or in combination with other supplements and medications. They are safe to use in puppies and in older dogs too.
Thunder shirts are specially designed clothing that a dog wears when exposed to a stressful situation.
The shirts work by putting gentle, constant pressure on your dog's body. Like being wrapped in a blanket, this sensation often causes a dog to relax. I have seen several dogs who were terrified by thunder get through storms calmly wearing a thunder shirt.
This is a great option when you need to keep your dog calm and there isn't time to use medication. It is definitely worth trying if your dog doesn't need tranquilizers for general anxiety, but just needs a bit of help from time to time.
There are a lot of options when it comes to dog tranquilizers. You can go for an OTC, a prescription medication, or try one of the alternatives. It takes some trial and error to find the best solution for each individual dog, so don't feel down if your first choice doesn't work.
Sometimes the best option is a combination of products. I often use calming supplements along with OTC medications and pheromone products in my dogs. Mix and match and see what works best for your dog!
