Fun awareness events have been happening all over the country this summer. Have a read about the exciting raft race in Portishead, radio shows in Burton-on-Trent and Helen Butcher taking a stand on the Fourth Plinth in Trafalgar Square with her fibro duck!
Also, read about new research into possible new drugs to treat FM called naltrexone and sodium oxybate, Kaye Lane gives us the low-down.
This is also a very special month for me as I'm getting married on 18th October! It is all very exciting and I can't wait to finally have some real sunshine in Egypt on Honeymoon!
Best wishes,
Kathy Longley (FMA UK Editor)
Raising Awareness on The Fourth Plinth by Helen Butcher
..This neatly leads on to my involvement in the One and Other project. This project is being organized by sculptor, Antony Gormley, who is inviting people of the UK to occupy the empty Fourth Plinth in Trafalgar Square in London, a space normally reserved for statues of Kings and Generals. Over the summer every hour, 24 hours a day, for 100 days without a break, a different person will make the Plinth their own and use the time on the plinth as they wish…….
Research into Naltrexone and Sodium Oxybate: Reports by Kaye Lane
Low dose Naltrexone appears to relieve fibromyalgia pain in Stanford pilot study.
A medication known as low-dose naltrexone (LDN) was recently tested for possible effective treatment for fibromyalgia by investigators in the Department of Anaesthesia, Division of Pain Management at Stanford University School of Medicine. Naltrexone has been used for many years to treat drug addiction. Given in small doses, such as 4.5 mg, it may help to reduce pain associated with Multiple Sclerosis and Crohn's disease as well as other inflammatory and autoimmune conditions. It is not yet…..
Black Country Group Going to Europe. Want to Join Us? By Sam Everiss
…. So, we are set to go to the European Parliament on the 16th June 2010, with each person getting €275 towards expenses. Mike has asked if anyone else from any other group would like to go because if they would then he can contact the relevant local MEP to arrange funding,….
The Portishead Raft Race by Julia McCouaig
The whole awareness idea was being discussed at a support group meeting in early 2009 led by our chairlady, Betty Farron, and we were asked to think of ways to let more people know, recognise and learn to understand fibromyalgia. Some while later I heard about the Portishead Raft Race to be held at the local Lake Grounds on 12th July and had a 'eureka' moment! But……. how do people with fibromyalgia build a raft when sometimes it's impossible to hold a cup of tea? Easy - I ask my hubby, who is an Army Staff Sergeant, if I can talk to his boss about it! I mean, what's the point of knowing soldiers if you can't ask to borrow their muscles…..
Steam and Sail - A brilliant day out!
On Wednsday 8th July, members of the South Gloucester FM group and their friends gathered at the Bitton Railway Station for the eagerly awaited excursion on a steam train followed by a leisurely trip on the river. We were in plenty of time to meet together in the garden of the Station Cafe or in the wonderfully converted railway carriage for a nice cuppa before we were ushered through the nostalgic ticket office to board our 'specially reserved' train carriage……
Events in Burton-on-Trent
The Burton-on-Trent group's latest awareness campaign saw their chair Jan Mayfield featured in the local newspaper, the Burton Mail, with pegs on her fingers, just to show others how it feels to experience the pain of fibromyalgia (that is if they are daft enough to put the pegs on their fingers to test it!)….
Ironman Beats The Odds
Chris Binks finished the Ironman Triathlon in Bolton on the 2nd August against all odds, completing the 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike ride and marathon to raise funds for fibromyalgia….
Bristol Biggest Bike Ride
Keith and Julie Farron successfully completed the Bristol Biggest Bike Ride of 38 miles, raising £385 plus £85 in gift aid, a total of £470 for FMA UK……
Open Garden in Winchester
On 28th June, Chris Reynolds (a member of the Winchester group) and her husband, Richard, successfully opened their garden,…..
Coventry Group in the Paper
The Coventry Group managed to get a piece in their local paper, the Telegraph Coventry, about fibromyalgia and the way it affects them. This lovely picture,….
My Fibro and Me by Sue Brown
My name is Sue Brown, I am 55 years of age and I have suffered from fibromyalgia for the last five and half years. I retired from my job working for Rotherham Borough Council in customer services at the end of March 2008 on ill health. I belong to the Rotherham FMA Group and have been attending….
Most Common Cause of Fatigue that is Missed or Misdiagnosed by Doctors by Dr. Mercola
Your adrenal glands are each no bigger than a walnut and weigh less than a grape, yet are responsible for one of the most important functions in your body: managing stress….
Resting During the Day
When you need to rest during the day, it may be tempting to slump down in front of the TV for an hour. This is fine for someone whose muscles don't tire easily and can cope with being stretched or scrunched, but it is counter-productive for a person with fibromyalgia, making you feel just as weary and sore as beforehand….
Autumn and Winter Fashion for FM Sufferers
It's that time again. Another fashion season is upon us – autumn/winter (although the weather has felt like this nearly all year!). I'm here to give my suggestions on this season's fashions from the perspective of practicality, comfort and suitability for people like myself, with a disability and body restrictions, but who still want to look up to date and fabulous…
Get Organised for It
What's your favourite season of the year? If your symptoms are affected by light, atmospheric pressure and weather, then you are likely to choose spring or summer, but autumn and winter make up half of the year so, based on the fact that our thoughts can influence how we feel, how can you approach the onset of the British winter in a positive way?

Pacific City, Oregon — Pelican Brewing Company continues its barrel-aged craft beer series with the release of Father of All Tsunamis, a delicious Imperial Stout Ale aged in rye whiskey barrels. One-upping Pelican's popular core brew Tsunami Stout is no easy task but Pelican brewers may have come close: they crafted a beer with even more stout character in the new Imperial version. Introducing Father of All Tsunamis.
Full of rich roasted flavors reminiscent of dark chocolate and espresso, 'Father' takes things one step further with aging in Rye whiskey barrels. With layers of spiciness, vanilla and caramel coming from these barrels, the Imperial Stout emerges with a richness and balance beyond any stout ever created at Pelican before now.
Ingredients include pale malt, malted white wheat, Midnight Wheat malt, Black Prinz malt, pure cane sugar, Magnum hops, Willamette hops, pure local water, and pure ale yeast: ABV: 11.2% IBU: 55

Dear Robbi,
You makeup artists are masters of subtlety. The invisible perfection you paint on the faces of actors provides the camouflage they need to bear their souls to an unforgiving camera. Yet other times, you know that a little flare can go a long way. In films like The Dark Knight, Apocalypse Now and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, full-on war paint is essential for pushing a character through improbable dramatic turns and to suspend our disbelief. Lucky you - getting to apply both these principles to the real-life story of Canadian bank robbing folk hero Edwin Boyd.
Writer and director Nathan Morlando's washed-out colours and blown out skies led you in the right direction, creating an aura of depression that we don't normally associate with the postwar boom. The diluted palette accentuates the drained, desperate, and debonair look on Scott Speedman's self-applied game face, brought to life by simple shoe polished cheekbones, white face powder and performer's eyeliner. More than a disguise, you revealed something deeper about the anti-hero's struggle and fragility. But like all great make-up artists, you saved your talent for when it mattered most: the subtle aging process near the end, illustrating the toll of the lifestyle on the film's central characters.
Boyd benefitted from a time when 15 minutes of fame stretched into years, thanks to a still-fledgling Canadian media. Discarded as a soldier and disheartened as an aspiring actor, he eventually got his coveted close-up in the spotlight. You've earned yours as well, helping to round out an impressive and unconventional crime thriller that doesn't let the guns and glory conceal the details of what makes the story empathetic and human.
With a smile painted on my face.

Men's volleyball reflects after once-promising season lost to injuries
UCLA men's volleyball failed to advance to the NCAA tournament – one season removed from its trip to the 2018 NCAA championship final. The Bruins fell 3-1 to USC in the MPSF conference tournament semifinal. (Daanish Bhatti/Daily Bruin)
By Aleeque Marselian
April 24, 2019 12:25 a.m.
After a season plagued by injuries, the Bruins did not have the chance to make a postseason run.
UCLA men's volleyball's record season was cut short after it did not win the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation conference tournament or claim an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament.
UCLA coach John Speraw named injuries as the main cause of the Bruins' short-lived season.
"With ankles, multiple backs, sickness and being forced to do everything we were forced to do," Speraw said. "Sometimes it goes that way in sports, doesn't usually go that way in volleyball, but unfortunately it did for us this year."
Throughout the 2018-2019 season, the Bruins suffered injuries to four positions in the starting lineup, including a lower-leg injury to junior outside hitter Austin Matautia, who averaged 2.41 kills per set before being ruled out for the rest of the season March 9.
Senior outside hitter Dylan Missry – who posted 148 kills in his senior season – missed 11 matches due to a back injury and redshirt junior opposite Brandon Rattray – who led the Bruins with an average of 3.33 kills per set – sat out three matches with a toe injury.
Redshirt sophomore outside hitter Sam Kobrine filled in for Missry and Matautia after averaging 0.19 kills per set last season. Kobrine recorded 130 kills and 13 aces before suffering an illness which caused him to miss five of the last six games of the season. Freshman libero Cole Pender also missed three of the Bruins' last six games due to injury.
Junior middle blocker Daenan Gyimah and senior setter Micah Ma'a were the only members of the UCLA squad to play all 28 matches of the season.
Gyimah finished the season as the leading scorer for the Bruins with 311 kills, 25 service aces and .78 blocks per set. He was also the fifth-most efficient offensive player in the nation, finishing the season with a .435 hitting percentage.
Ma'a, who switched to the outside hitter position in the latter part of the season, recorded 147 kills and 851 assists. The senior ranked third in the nation with .64 aces per set and posted 67 service aces in his last season – which placed him as the all-time aces leader in program history.
Despite his short senior season, Ma'a said he was pleased with his teammates' response to the adversities they faced throughout the season.
"We had to switch a lot of lineups," Ma'a said. "As people have seen, everyone's played everywhere and I'm proud of the guys for just filling in where they needed to be. Wherever coach (Speraw) put them they gave it their all and that's all you can do."
UCLA won eight of its first 10 games to begin the season and defeated all six of its conference opponents in the first half of conference play. The Bruins finished the season losing four of their remaining six conference matches and secured a No. 2 seed in the MPSF tournament.
UCLA finished the season among the top 10 in the nation offensively, ranking fifth with 1.73 aces per set, seventh with 12.18 assists per set, and sixth with .323 and 12.85 in hitting percentage and kills per set, respectively.
The Bruins were nearly perfect at home, ending the season with a 10-1 record. Their only loss was to the 2018 national champions, Long Beach State 49ers, on Jan. 19. However, UCLA faced obstacles on the road, ending the season with a 7-7 record away from home, with four losses obtained in the second half of conference play.
After an MPSF quarterfinal win against Concordia Irvine and a four-set semifinal loss to USC, UCLA ended the 2019 season with a 19-9 overall record.
Missry described his last season at UCLA as a chaotic one after the Bruins' MPSF tournament semifinal loss to the Trojans on April 18.
"A mess, a hot mess," Missry said. "I mean with injuries and all these things, we hung tough and gave it our best."
However, with only two seniors leaving the Bruins' starting lineup and its top three offensive players returning next season, UCLA men's volleyball has the potential to grow and return to the NCAA tournament next season.

India / Bhutan: Further information on imminent extradition / fear of torture: Rongthong Kunley Dorji
There remains concern that Rongthong Kunley Dorji, a 58-year-old Bhutanese national, may be at risk of extradition to Bhutan where he could be at risk of torture or ill-treatment. He is the chairman of the United Front for Democracy (UFD) in Bhutan, a political organization in exile, and was arrested by police at its offices in New Delhi on 18 April. On 26 May the High Court dismissed the habeas corpus petition filed on his behalf. He is currently held on an extended restriction order valid until 5 June. In another development, it has been reported that the High Court of Bhutan issued a new warrant for his arrest on 25 April 1997 which no longer includes charges under the National Security Act relating to "anti-national" activities. There is concern that this was done to circumvent the provisions in the Indian Extradition Act which exclude extradition of people on political grounds.

Don't tell anyone but today (Monday, 21stJanuary 2019) is "called" Blue Monday and is "officially" the most depressing day of the year in the UK.
And if you didn't know that before, just thinking of it now is enough to make you feel depressed, isn't it ?
For us, depression is one of the reasons how our Retreat came about.
In fact, it's not just depression and it goes a lot deeper than that but for today, we're not going to focus on that at all and just be thankful that we are here to share our Retreat with you all.
Rather than focusing on why or how Blue Monday has been formulated, we thought we would give you a few tips and suggestions to help lift your mood and make today (and every day) a little more manageable and enjoyable.
Why not give them a go and see how you feel.
Sing in the shower
Whether you believe it or not, singing in the shower has been shown to improve your mood and there are a few benefits to it too.
Exercising your lungs gets you to take in more oxygen and we all know how important that is when it comes to improving your general energy levels as well as reducing stress.
It also helps to reduce cortisol as well as improves your memory too.
And when you grab that sponge and pretend you're on The Voice, you can only but smile at yourself.
Pull faces at yourself in the mirror
Now most of us don't even like looking in the mirror in the morning so we are not going to go there for today.
But pulling faces, sticking out your tongue and squinting your eyes at yourself not only makes you laugh a little bit, it also brings out your inner child – you know, the one that likes to have fun and play around.
For just a few minutes, be a kid again. Drop your guard. Let that innocent and fun loving side come out to play and you will be surprised at the benefits of it all.
Perform a Random Act of Kindness
One of the best ways to drag ourselves out of the blues is to take the focus of YOU and place it on making a difference in someone else's life.
For just a while, it reduces the "weight" you place on your own problems and gives you a break. You get to see someone else smile and their face light up for no reason at all except for a momentary random act of selfless kindness.
Buy someone a chocolate bar or give a stranger a flower. Yes, it may seem uncomfortable to even think of doing but you would be surprised at the impact it can have on someone's life.
Flex your creative muscles
Have you ever tried colouring ? Or simply doodling ? Some people even like to spend time writing poetry or a random and exciting story ? Do you think it is time for a new hobby or possibly picking up a hobby that you had forgotten about because you let everything else get in the way ?And maybe, there's a meal you have been wanting to cook for some time but have never got round to doing it ?
Creativity helps us to relax. It gets the brain looking at the world in a new light and with fresh options. It reduces stress and tension and reconnects us with our passions in life which, in itself, has endless benefits too.
Get sexy
Put on your favourite underwear for the day. You know, the ones that you only bring out for special occasions ?
You know why ? Because it makes you feel good. It makes you smile secretly because you know what's going on behind the scenes. And when you feel good, your posture improves, you are more relaxed and there's a sneak little bounce in your step too.
Switch off the internet
Once you've finished reading this (obviously) try disconnecting from the world for a little while.
Log out of your social media accounts, put your phone into airplane mode and just give yourself some quality time out.
Social Media is a funny thing – we only get to see what people want to show us and then, because we're struggling, we beat ourselves us as we are constantly comparing ourselves to everyone else and afraid we might miss out on something.
Talk AT someone
If you're genuinely struggling, reach out. Talk to someone. Make a call.
You don't have to tell them everything but just speaking to someone during a tough time can make a huge difference. Tell them that you need someone to speak AT rather than TO – there's a huge difference and sometimes, just being able to let off steam really helps.
Book yourself a healthy break
Instead of booking your normal holiday, why not book yourself a break at a Health Retreat ? Too often, we think a boozy holiday with loads of food will cheer us up yet we come home sometimes feeling worse than when we left.
So why not try something different ? Imagine getting in some good, proper rest, healthy food and exercise, time to think and reflect and also treatments and therapies to pamper yourself with ?
Not only will it have all the benefits of a holiday, you'll return home with a bounce in your step and new tools in your arsenal too.

Telugu film Arjun Reddy has just completed 10-theatrical days, but the craze for the film among other film industries is increasing with each passing day. The film, which marked the directorial debut of Sandeep Vanga, starred Vijay Deverakonda of Pelli Choopulu in the titular role of Arjun Reddy. Produced by Pranay Vanga as a low budget, the film had already grossed Rs. 35 crore plus to become a clean blockbuster at the Box Office.
Catch had previously reported that Tamil actor Dhanush has bagged the Tamil rights of Arjun Reddy.
And now if Telugu media reports are to be believed Ranveer Singh will be attending a special screen of Arjun Reddy next week. Reportedly, Sunil Narang, the distributor of the Vijay Deverakonda blockbuster along with Sandeep Vanga have planned a special screening of their film for the Bajirao Mastani actor. There are also reports that the makers are already in talks with Ranveer Singh to essay the role of Arjun Reddy in its Hindi remake.
An official confirmation on this is expected to be announced soon

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnellAddison (Mitch) Mitchell McConnellTrump, GOP aim to complete reshaping of federal judiciary Supreme Court fight should drive Democrats and help Biden Harris on SCOTUS fight: Ginsburg's legacy 'at stake' MORE (R-Ky.) slightly edged his Democrat Alison Lundergan Grimes in fundraising during the final quarter of 2013.
The GOP leader raised $2.22 million in the final three months of 2013, while Lundergan Grimes raised $2.1 million, their campaigns both announced Friday.
It's a reversal of their third-quarter showings, when Lundergan Grimes slightly outraised McConnell, buoyed by help from Hollywood donors and national Democrats.
But Lundergan Grimes' showing still puts her among the top Democratic fundraisers this cycle — she's outraised nearly every Democratic candidate and incumbent senator that has released their numbers thus far.
And McConnell has a considerably higher burn rate than Lundergan Grimes at this point in the cycle — likely due in part to the fact that he's fending off a challenge from both his left and right flanks.
McConnell now has $10.9 million cash on hand, about a million more than he posted at the end of October.
Lundergan Grimes still only has a third of the money McConnell has in the bank, with $3.5 million cash on hand, but that's an uptick from the $2 million she posted at the end of October.
While McConnell's campaign spent a majority of the money he raised last cycle, Lundergan Grimes banked most of hers. If that trend continues, it could further eat into McConnell's fundraising lead.
McConnell's GOP primary challenger, businessman Matt Bevin, raised $900,000 in the fourth quarter.
Democrats are looking to the Kentucky Senate race as a premiere pickup opportunity in a cycle that offers few chances for offense for the party. They believe McConnell's low popularity in his home state will be his undoing.
But McConnell has already had support from deep-pocketed outside groups in the race, and his own campaign coffers will make him difficult to beat in November, if he makes it through his primary.

Jesus said in John 15:7, "If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you."
Does this apply to the minister who is releasing the power of God or does it apply to the person needing a miracle?
It applies to both. If it only applies to the minister who is releasing the power of God, then automatically anyone who needs something from God does not need to abide in Jesus nor does that person need for the Lord's words to abide in them.
Besides this, the word also says in Hebrews 11:6, "But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him." This scripture verse applies to everyone and it pairs with Romans 10:17 which says, "So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God."
When we rightly divide the word of God, we see how both the minister and the one needing a touch from the Lord combine their faith to see the glory of God released. This is a marriage of faith.

In the wake of alleged violent reprisals on the part of Nigerian military operatives dubbed the Joint Task Force (JTF) against the Islamist terrorist organization called Boko Haram, the governor of Borno State, Kashim Shettima, announced the implementation of guidelines and other measures aimed at drastically reducing such incidence of violence on the part of the state (See "Nigeria: Borno Governor Admits Army Boko Haram Excesses" BBC News: Africa 7/17/11).
Significantly, Governor Shettima also pleaded with the leaders of the fast-growing terrorist organization to lay down their arms in order to constructively negotiate a mutually acceptable code of conduct. This call comes in the wake of widespread criticism by some Nigerian human rights activists who fear that unless the activities of the Joint Task Force are strictly monitored, the country may well experience a hitherto unprecedented rise in the spate of religion-related violence.
The problem with this kind of official admission of excessive use of the coercive apparatus of the state, is that it tends to inadvertently legitimize the gratuitous application of violence in the name of Islam by the Boko Haram leaders. For historically speaking, the language of symphonic violence, such as only the Nigerian army is professionally capable of unleashing, is just about the only form of effective language that is perfectly appreciated by clinical basket cases like Boko Haram, which threatens to seriously regress the stability and development of a remarkable percentage of Northern Nigerian citizens in the specious name of the promotion of Islamic purity.
As of this writing (7/18/11), hundreds of residents of the Borno state capital of Maiduguri were reported to have fled the city in fear of Boko Haram-engineered violence, which has largely come in the form of suicide bombings by people on motorbikes. As a result of the latter disturbing trend, Governor Shettima recently banned the use of Okada, or motorbike transportation and even threatened to extend the ban to the entire Borno State, if the locus of Boko Haram-related violence was reckoned to have spread to the other parts of the state not covered by the ban.
And here must also be recalled the fact that while Maiduguri and Borno State remain its primary operational range, nonetheless, in recent months, the group has been involved in acts of violence in the central Nigerian capital of Abuja and elsewhere.
At any rate, what makes the need to empower the Joint Task Force in such a way as to guarantee the total uprootment of Boko Haram is that as a formidable regional power, Nigeria also serves as the headquarters of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), and therefore as a country whose fortunes are likely to impact the West African sub-region much more than any of its closest rivals.
The second and even more significant factor is the imperative need to effectively contain fringe organizations like Boko Haram in order to guarantee the peaceful and salutary development of the entire West African sub-region. This means that the mesh of state security ought to be cast far and beyond Maiduguri and Borno State to encompass the sixteen, or so, countries that constitute ECOWAS.
Of course, the fundamental civic and human rights of even subscribers of Boko Haram ideology or creed need to be jealously guarded; still, the extent of such safeguard ought to be squarely predicated upon the willingness of the Boko Haramites to adhere to the sacred principles of peaceful coexistence with all their neighbors, irrespective of ethnicity, faith or political affiliation.
Indeed, the 2009 apparent murder of Mr. Mohammed Yusuf, the Boko Haram leader, may well have constituted an act of criminality of the first order, particularly occurring as it did at the hands of the Nigerian police, to whom Mr. Yusuf had been entrusted for custody pending his arraignment and trial for the heinous act of terrorism.
Indeed, the Boko Haram leader may well have suffered the negative effects of gynecomastia, as his published nude picture appeared to clearly indicate. Nonetheless, his apparent death at the hands of the Nigerian police may well have conferred the patently unsavory honor of martyrdom on the woefully misguided young man. It is primarily on the latter score that as paradoxical as it may seem, nonetheless, Governor Shettima's reluctant decision to modify the operational mode of conduct of the Joint Task Force may be clearly seen to have some validity.
Mr. Shettima, himself, clearly appreciated the crippling nuisance that some human rights advocates could readily make of some of the soundest policies aimed at stemming the tide of terrorism, such as eerily represented by Boko Haram, when he made the following observation: "We are going to provide hotlines and oblige the JTF with a code of conduct – rules of engagement – so that they do not break the rights of the people. But it's quite easy to agitate, to call for the removal of the JTF; but what is Plan-B?"

No research this morning. Had flu-like symptoms from midnight to 2:00 or so and slept in. Considering how bad I felt last night, I'm pleasantly surprised to feel good enough to get into work at 9:00.
I did take the Superpedestrian wheel out (yes, as I was getting sick) for my 18 mile hilly loop. It took around an hour and performed really well. It just flattens hills, while behaving like a normal bike at all other times.
Google Says Its Job Is to Promote Climate Change Conspiracy Theories
- My fix from yesterday doesn't work on Aaron's machine. Verified that it works on any of my cmd-line interfaces. Weird.
- Testing to see if my Excel has been fixed. Nope.
- More work on getting Python imports to behave. All written up here.
- Got the data sheets working with the plots:
plt.imshow(df, extent=[3, points/3, 0.9, 0.1], aspect='auto', cmap=plt.cm.get_cmap("hot")) plt.colorbar()
This took a while to figure out. The X, Y arrays are used to create the mesh. The df.as_matrix() contains the Z values. Just make sure that row size and column size match!
fig = plt.figure() ax = Axes3D(fig) X = co.get_min_cluster_array() Y = co.get_eps_array() X, Y = np.meshgrid(X, Y) Z = df.as_matrix() ax.plot_surface(X, Y, Z, cmap=plt.cm.get_cmap("hot")) plt.show()
- Next is to save the best cluster run with its EPS and cluster size
- Wound up just using the number of clusters for now. That seems to be a better fitness test. Also, I discovered that all Dataframes are references, so it's important to make a deep copy if you're trying to keep the best one around! Here are the best results so far:

Sixty years after it became the last aircraft to fly out of Defford Airfield, near Pershore, a Meteor WD686 has returned to National Trust Croome where it now sits alongside the restored RAF Defford buildings.
Carefully restored, the the Meteor NF11 night fighter, which left Defford on March 28 1958, further brings to life the story of the secret radar work undertaken at this historically significant site.
During the Second World War and the Cold War years that followed, Defford Airfield, built in the grounds of Croome, was one of the most secret locations in the country.
It was there that airborne radar was tested and evaluated by the Telecommunications Research Establishment.
Recognising WD686's unique significance to Croome, members of the Defford Airfield Heritage Group (DAHG) were determined to preserve this aircraft and sought funds to ensure its long-term conservation and return.

The Meteor has now returned to Croome where it will be on display until June 2020.
"It is with the greatest of pleasure that we welcome Meteor WD 686 back to Croome after a period of some 60 years," said Nick Hubble, group chairman.
"This great achievement has only been made possible by the generosity and enthusiasm of our supporters, volunteers and National Trust partners."
Amy Forster-Smith, visitor experience manager, said: "We are proud to have been part of the team that has returned the Meteor back to Croome after such a long time.
"We are indebted to the efforts and enthusiasm of our friend and colleague Dr Bob Shaw, who recently died.
"He was a significant figure at Croome and as a volunteer, helped to raise hundreds of thousands of pounds towards the restoration of the derelict 1940s RAF buildings here.
"He not only secured funding for the restoration work of the plane but also ensured its successful return to Croome alongside his colleagues.
"It was an honour and a privilege to work alongside him and we are so glad he was able to see the culmination of his efforts, after years of planning, before he died. We are greatly looking forward to visitors enjoying this spectacular addition to Croome's rich and varied heritage."

Drawing on responses from a broad range of event industry venues, suppliers and contractors, the survey reveals the top four priorities facing event professionals following the decision to leave the EU.
Nearly two thirds (62%) of respondents identified their number one priority as "safeguarding trade" by reducing uncertainty and engaging with new markets. The second highest consideration was reviewing existing legislation in order to ensure future business can be conducted efficiently (16%). The third most important issue was investing in UK infrastructure to improve Britain's competitive position in the global market (12%). The final priority was investing in people in order to manage the impact of changes to foreign worker status in the UK (9%).
Britain's reputation as an events destination was another major interest for survey respondents including: the potential perception of the UK as protectionist and unfriendly; damage to the UK's reputation for being a modern international leader and trendsetter; and the danger of European conventions stopping the inclusion of the UK on their rotation patterns.
The survey also highlighted opportunities that have emerged since the EU referendum result. The fall in the value of sterling was cited as an opportunity for some businesses, although this was offset against projects being delivered in Europe where margins were being eroded due to the exchange rate. An increase in domestic business was cited by some respondents, particularly in relation to the need for additional conferences and meetings required by clients to help support SMEs face a more competitive trading future.
BVEP's report points out that the questions raised by Brexit are compounded by the already wide range of issues and considerations that affect the events industry. As well as a lack of hard data on the events industry from a single recognised source, these include: workforce issues; aviation capacity; regulation; and specific initiatives such as the Tour Operator Margin Scheme (TOMS).
However, the report suggests that there is an opportunity for the industry to position itself as an integral part of the broader trading nation that needs to re-define itself with the EU and forge new trade agreements with other international markets. In other words, the future success of the UK events industry is also inexorably linked to the longer term impacts on the key industrial sectors it serves. Where the automotive sector succeeds, for example, so too will events such as product launches, dealer training session, trade shows and consumer experiences.
Calling on the events sector to help prioritise the key issues for government in the forthcoming EU negotiations, BVEP Vice-Chair and report author Simon Hughes said:
"Having identified the wide range of touch points that could affect our industry, the next stage is to identify a specific "Brexit Manifesto" to make sure events are taken into account in any positioning of UK plc. Over the next two years or so, we have a fantastic opportunity to demonstrate the links between events and international trade. This is a chance for all event professionals to be seen and heard, while the government's agenda is firmly focussed on protecting and enhancing our global reputation for business".

It's summer, we all want ice-cream. Our skinny jeans tell us not to do it. Our tight fitting t-shirts cry out for help every time we reach out for that naughty little treat. Our body fat percentage is still not what it should be. It probably will never be what it should be. That beach body you were praying for in winter is just not coming.
So you continue to starve yourself.
Fear not humans.
You can make your ice-cream and eat it too. Yes, it's a true story. This delicious mixture of frozen bananas and chocolate whey protein powder is so delicious, yet ever so kind and gentle on your waist line.
Thank me by posting pictures of you, stuffing your face, with this delicious and very healthy, almost guilt free treat. I say almost guilt free on the basis that you don't have 1 million servings in one week.
What you will need:
- 2 bananas sliced and frozen for at least 3 hours
- 1 single serving of chocolate flavoured whey protein powder
- A handful of nuts of your choice, the best is to use hazel nuts. I only had pecans and almonds which are just great too
- About a table spoon of cocoa nibs for extra crunch (optional)
For a vegan option, use a plant based protein powder or omit altogether. Flavour your banana ice cream by using vanilla bean paste, a touch of cinnamon and a teaspoon of honey.
What to do:
Place the frozen bananas and protein whey powder into a food processor. Blend until a smooth, mousse like consistency is formed. You will need to use a spatula to push the mixture back into the food processor. Don't give up at this point, keep blending. You want the end result to be light and fluffy. Like soft serve.
Once it reaches a soft serve consistency add the chopped nuts and pulse until well blended, finally add the cocoa nibs for that extra crunch.
You now have two options, indulge in this amazing little treat right away or freeze for at least one hour. Additional freezing will produce a great ice-cream. No one will know it's made of banana and chocolate whey.

Spooky Sales and Special Treats + Meet the Banjo Brothers this Halloween at Perennial Cycle
This entry was posted on October 26, 2013.
The secret's out! All Banjo Brothers- and Minnehaha-brand items, including panniers, backpacks, small bags, and clothing items, are part of our SPOOKY 25%-off Sale now through Thursday, October 31 at Perennial Cycle. To celebrate the final day of these (so good they're spooky) deals, Banjo Brothers co-founders Mike and Eric will be stopping by the shop from 4–6 p.m. for treats and tricks in their best Banjo Brothers attire this Halloween. But first, here's a little introduction...
It all started one crisp morning in 2003, at a Minneapolis coffee shop where Mike and Eric famously decided to take the leap and start a new business all their own. They knew they wanted to go into business together and they had a name — The Banjo Brothers. The spark for just what that business would be was a trip to a local bike shop. Looking over the available bags, Mike and Eric knew they could put something together that would be both more affordable and of better quality that what they saw available: bags they'd be proud to stand behind. Today, we all know Banjo Bags to be just that. As they say: Tough. Practical. Affordable. When it comes to Banjo Brothers (and their sister-company Minnehaha Bag Co.) products, it's all about the value.
Beyond the bags, there's plenty more to love about the team behind them. Mike and Eric and the entire Banjo Brothers staff are great patrons of the Minneapolis cycling community, contributing to these (and many more) organizations & events this year:
Powderhorn 24
Almanzo 100
All City Chamionships
Track or Treat
Babes in Bikeland
Cirque du So Gay
Wellstone Bike Club
MPLS Bike Love
MPLS Bike Polo (Championships)
Open Streets MPLS
Brompton US Championship
Tiny Bikeshop Concerts
#30 Days of Biking
Dirty Benjamin
So, this coming Thursday, October 31, make Perennial Cycle a stop on your trick-or-treating to meet Mike & Eric, the faces behind locally-designed Banjo and Minnehaha bags. In addition to a chance to meet Banjo Mike and Banjo Eric, we'll be passing out treats & have activities for you and the family, PLUS a raffle with great prizes. Get your picture taken with Mike and Eric, enjoy some sweets, and grab a sweet deal on a bag or two. While you're here, enter to win one of these great prizes:
- A Perennial Cycle Winter Maintenance Membership
- One of two complete Standard Tune-Ups from Perennial Cycle
- One of 3 Banjo Brothers Musette Bags
- A Banjo Brothers Canvas Backpack
- One of 5 Banjo Brothers Phone Wallets
See you there!

The inaugural OCGFC Hame of Fame evening was celebrated with the induction of four highly deserving members.
Matthew Hanson
Matthew first played for the club in 1997, for a total of 115 Senior games. Initially a ruck rover, Matthew later became a defensive general at CHB. He was the Senior Coach from 1998 – 2000, as well as captaining the club from 2000 – 2003, including the Senior 2001 Premiership. Matthew won the Senior's Best & Fairest award in 1998, the year he remarkably also coached the team to a losing Grand Final. He was also a member of the Premiership Club 18 team of 2008, but was unable to play the Final due to injury.
Off-field, Matthew continued to aid the club as an assistant coach, and was an important mentor to many of the younger players in the later stages of his playing career. A member of the committee that organised celebrations for the club's 50th anniversary, Matthew was made a Life Member of the club in 2008.
Kenneth Wood
Ken was a foundation member first playing in 1960, with a total of 204 Senior & Reserves games. As the Captain of the Seniors for 9 years ('62 – '70), including Captain/Coach in 1965, Ken won the Association Best & Fairest Award for E-Grade twice (1962, 1965), and the Senior's Best & Fairest an astonishing 7 times! He also won the Reserve's Best & Fairest in 1972.
Off-field, Ken served on the Club Committee for a number of years from 1962 – 1973; served as Vice President from 1968 – 1973; Social Committee member in 1969 and involved in a number of sub-committees.
Ken was made a Life Member of the club in 1970.
David Richmond
David first played for the club in 1964, playing 2 Senior matches whilst still at school. He played his first full season for the club in 1996, with a total of 118 Senior and Reserve matches, captaining the Seniors in 1971.
David served on the Club Committee from 1969 – 1972, and was a member of the Selection Committee in 1974. David served as Vice President in 1975, the same year he was made a Life Member of the club. David was the U19's Team Manager in 1996 and 1997, and has also served on the Committee of the Wellsman.
David has been a long-standing supporter of the club, and has been present on the sidelines most weeks, both home and away, for many years.
Warren Earl
Warren first played for the club in 1987, playing 114 Reserves and Club 18 games.
Off-field, Warren has been involved on just about every level, helping out as boundary umpire, goal umpire, time keeper, interchange steward and team runner on countless occasions. Warren was the Senior and Reserves Team Manager from 1989 – 1992, and 1996 – 1998, and Club 18 Manager in 1999 and 2000. Warren has served as the Club Secretary from 2001 – 2003, and the club delegate to the VAFA for a number of years.
Most famously, "Wearly" has managed the club Bar from 1988 – 1992, and again from 2001 to his current managerial post at his now namesake bar.
Warren has won the Clubman award on 4 occasions, and was made a Life Member of the club in 1997.
People like these four are what make clubs like ours such a wonderful place to be around, and the clubs gratitude for their involvement and commitment over many years is now suitably solidified in our Hall of Fame forever.

Oh my fleas! Something's happening to the Creature – and I think the humans call it "growing up?"
I finally got my paws on the human's iPhone while she was busy with the Creature today, and I couldn't believe what I found on it!
I discovered that a few days ago the Creature's dad got the day off and took her hiking fur (her) first time ever – see fur yourself!
So that's why it was so quiet around here that day! 😼
All I knew was that the Creature wasn't here, and I had the humans all to my little self, and was being spoiled like the Purrincess I am finally!
The human isn't taking care of Tori anymore, because Tori's mom finally came home and now Tori's getting spoiled rotten again just like me – but I hadn't been able to figure out why the Creature wasn't here that day – that is, until now….
Oh my FLEAS!!!🙀
When did that happen? When did the Creature quit being a toddler tornado and suddenly grow up?? What do they feed that thing?
And now, she's talking about "starting gymnastics?"
Hmm….I'm not so sure I like this – I think Serafina and I are going to have to find a way to stop this "growing up" nonsense!😾…
Right after my nap! 💤

Racism is one annoying thing which can make anyone sick to the ground but still it exists in the world and somehow it does looks like that the society is also fine with it. Currently, what's boiling the blood of some people on Twitter is the racist property advertisement of the Lodha real estate group which was shared by the famous comedian Sorabh Pant himself.
This Is The Racist Property Advertisement Which Sorabh Shared On Twitter:
Sick of property ads in India featuring foreign models.
It's racist.
Why do you need white skin to sell homes? pic.twitter.com/ZZhoewKyl6
— Sorabh Pant (@hankypanty) July 5, 2016
And This Is How The Twitteraties Are Reacting To It:
@hankypanty Because white skin can even easily sell other races !
— Gaurav Munot (@gaurav_drg) July 5, 2016
@hankypanty sick of foreign models in every Indian ad…..do we need foreigners to sell our products to us?
— rukmani iyengar (@iyengarrukmani) July 5, 2016
@hankypanty this particular ad seems to have completely diff. Reason for selecting that particular model.
— Anand (@anandchoraria) July 6, 2016
Moreover, Some People Even Went Too Far:
@hankypanty This will resonate better with us pic.twitter.com/DQluxgb3wD
— Abhijeet Wankhade (@sokratus) July 5, 2016
Although the issue still hasn't grown into that big controversy yet but it is already hurting the feelings of many people.

Are you looking to add some furniture to your home? Have you recently bought your first house? Maybe you have bought a larger house. Is some of your current furniture on its last legs? No matter your reasons, reading this article can help you find great furniture.
If you want to buy wood furniture such as antiques, look beyond the surface. Check the insides and undersides, including drawers. Most of the time a good visual inspection will allow you to get a better picture of its condition, as opposed to simply looking at the surface wood. Inspecting the secondary woods help you determine age and quality.
Furniture is expensive. That is why in a lot of cases it makes sense to buy used furniture. Quality second hand furniture can be found at resale shops, online ads and even garage sales. When you buy a piece, you can have it refinished or reupholstered. This can save you a lot of money.
Look at thrift stores. Perhaps you have not ever shopped at a thrift store, or at least not in a long time. You can discover some amazing finds in your local thrift store. Besides some choice accent pieces, you can also find great buys on larger pieces, such as a dining room table or a like-new couch.
If you eat with your family at the kitchen table, consider one topped with tile. These tables allow for simple cleanup. You can also find a lot of different styles when it comes to this type of table.
Any time you buy a couch, make sure to inspect its frame. The boards need to be a bit more than one inch in thickness. Your sofa can squeak if its board is thinner than that. Test drive the sofa by sitting on it and moving around, you are checking to see if it makes any noise.
When you are looking to purchase furniture, think about buying it from a large chain store that has a clearance section. Most retailers have large areas for items that are on clearance or were overstock. If you go shopping in these places you can find great items that are of good quality for very cheap.
When selecting living room furnishings, go for neutral hues. By choosing neutral hues, you can revamp your living room just by changing the wall colors, paintings on the walls, throw pillows, and other accessories. Doing this will let you transform your living room on a regular basis without spending much money.
You may need to spend a little extra money to get the quality that you need. It is important to follow a budget, but you should make sure quality is included. Low priced furniture may seem like a good buy, but they are often made very cheaply. If you spend a little more on a quality piece, it could last a lot longer.
Now that you are aware of the process of buying furniture, it should not be complicated. In fact, you're able to get furniture that looks great and doesn't cost a lot if you're intelligent enough. Use the tips that you read in this article in order to get the best possible furniture.

A homeless man from Edinburgh has described the "incredible act of kindness" of a tourist who invited him to spend Christmas at her family home in Sweden.
Jimmy Fraser was begging on George Street in the city centre when Annis Lindkvist and her sister Emma, from Sagmyra in central Sweden, asked him for directions.
They struck up a friendship and swapped numbers at the end of the trip, staying in touch by text before Lindkvist offered to pay for his flights so he could spend a week with her family over the festive period.
Fraser, who became homeless following his divorce 13 years ago, said: "It's weird, I know. I was begging on George Street and these two women came up to me and the next thing I knew I was in Sweden. People promise you things all the time on the street but they never materialise.
"But I thought I'm going to go for it as its once in a lifetime. I couldn't believe it anyway at first. People tell you 'see you tomorrow, I'll get you a drink' and then nothing happens. But this did happen, actually, so it was really weird."
The 54-year-old former security guard, who went to an ice hockey match, Christmas markets and midnight mass with his host's family and friends, told the BBC News website: "It was a beautiful experience."
"Annis is such a wonderful, kind and generous person and I wish everyone was like her," he said. "Being homeless is cold, lonely and depressing and you get a lot of abuse from people. This was an incredible act of kindness and I loved meeting Annis's friends, family and colleagues. I wish I was there now."
Lindkvist described her own doubts about issuing such an open invitation to a stranger. "We give money to charity every month but we have never done anything like this before," she said. "There were friends and family who thought I was really crazy, but I just opened my home to him and said everything that is ours was his too."
The 37-year-old, who works with dementia sufferers, said she had invited Fraser back to stay with the family again over the Easter break, and that he was "part of the family now".
She said: "There is a big place in my heart for him. I had had my doubts about it, but I sat up late one night when he was here and spoke to him about it. I could have been a killer, just like he could have been, but I just had a feeling in my stomach that he was a really nice person."
Also in Edinburgh, the homeless charity founder Josh Littlejohn has been awarded an MBE in the New Year's Honours list. Littlejohn set up Social Bite, a chain of sandwich shops across Scotland that train and employ homeless staff. He recently announced plans to build a row of low-cost, eco-friendly homes to help end the vicious cycle of homelessness in the capital.
About 20 residents will stay in the supervised village environment – with access to counselling, addiction therapy and budgeting advice – for up to a year before moving on to more permanent accommodation.
According to Shelter Scotland, 3,431 homelessness assessments were made in Edinburgh in the last year, while it warned that over 5,000 children across the country would be living in temporary accommodation on Christmas Day.
