In a mental fog? Feeling sluggish or forgetful or distracted? I've been there, too! Our brains are amazing, complicated organs, affected by so many factors. I've been working on various areas of brain boosting over the past few years and thinking lately about how to increase my mental accuity and focus even more.
Before we take a look at the physical factors affecting brain function, I want to mention two books that I am currently reading. Please note that I haven't finished either of them yet, and I'm sure I would not endorse everything in them, but they are extremely helpful for both inspiration and practical ideas. Next time, we'll cover mental, emotional, and life management factors.
- How to Think Like Leonardo da Vinci: Seven Steps to Genius Every Day by Michael J. Gelb: This book takes a long look at how da Vinci approached life and learning, incorporating curiosity, learning through experience/persistence, cultivating sensory attention, embracing ambiguity, balancing between the arts and sciences, nurturing the physical body, and an appreciating interconnectedness.
- No More Brain Drain: Proven Ways to Maintain Your Mind and Memories by Readers Digest: Based on more than 100 scientific studies, this easy-to-read, visually pleasing book is full of practical and innovative ideas for boosting your mental edge – foods, exercises, mental games, sleep tips, etc. Please note that there are other books with similar titles. Maybe they're good, too!
Ready for a little tour through the brain factors?
If I don't go to bed on time, then I pay for it with grogginess the next day – and even for a few days sometimes. Working too late on the computer is also said to overstimulate the brain, though I don't seem to have much problem getting to sleep once I'm in bed, so that's not as much of an issue for me.
The other thing that affected my sleep for years is that I have a severe case of obstructive sleep apnea, which means my airways get blocked while I'm in bed at night, and my brain doesn't get the oxygen it needs. Untreated, this would cause me to wake up briefly at least once per minute. Even though I am not conscious of it when it happens, it definitely prevents a good night's sleep and creates other health risks, including heart attack. Last year, I finally went to do an overnight sleep study at Florida Hospital, and started using a CPAP machine with a breathing mask every night. I breathe so much easier and sleep so much better with it!
If I find myself getting foggy or cranky during the day, I will lie down for a nap. Sometimes it is just five minutes to close my eyes, and sometimes I need to crash for a few hours to get my brain back. I guess it should also be said that too much sleep can also impair brain function. Find out what works for you.
Some people take sleep medicines, but many of these are known to cause serious side effects or make you feel groggy in the morning. Melatonin is a more natural supplement for assisting healthy sleep.
What is affecting your sleep? Going to bed too late? Chronic pain? Anxiety? Too much caffeine? Too much household noise? Small children? Too much screen time? What can you do to get more ZZZZ's?
This is probably the other biggie for me, but it's very confusing. There are so many opinions out there about what we should eat and how it affects brain function. You have the paleos and gluten frees on the one side, and the vegetarians and whole grainers on the other side. I think all agree that junk food is detrimental to clear thinking! I don't have much to say about nutrition at this point, except for try to be aware of how individual foods affect you personally. I do best with protein first thing in the morning. My biggest struggle is sugar. I keep saying I want to cut it out, but then I go right back to it. Blech. (Note: I did cut out sugar in the fall of 2014 and only eat minimal amounts now. It wasn't nearly as hard as I thought, and I have lost a good bit of weight!) Some of the brain-happy foods listed in the No More Brain Drain book are olive oil, nuts, fish, whole grains, fresh produce (blueberries, apples, bananas, spinach, brocolli), flaxseed, garlic, low-fat dairy products, and green tea. What I'm confused about is that Dr. Perlmutter, the medical consultant for this book is also the author of the book Grain Brain, in which advocates a low carb, gluten free, higher fat diet with minimal grains. You can read his article 5 Keys to Eating for Better Brain Health. I guess the jury is still out on brain nutrition! Like I said, I'm not sure quite what to think. I guess I will stick to what is generally known as healthy food, and all in moderation. Other brain foods I've seen on multiple lists are almonds, coconut oil, eggs, avocados, dark chocolate (yes!), salmon, kale, strawberries, curry/turmeric, rosemary, sage, apple cider vinegar...
Health & Medications
Other health issues that affect my own mental powers are low thyroid, seasonal allergies and Attention Deficit Disorder. (See ADD and Me? We'll Manage!) Fortunately, there are medications for these and other maladies.
Unfortunately, some medications have side effects which hinder brain power. For example, some allergy medicines cause drowsiness. Make sure you buy one that specifically says it is non-drowsy or daytime. (I use loratidine, and my children use chewable Alavert.)
Some pain medications and anti-depressants can make you more tired and foggy brained. According to friends who take it, Wellbutrin, an anti-depressant stimulant, doesn't seem to have that effect. It is known for helping people with ADD focus better, as well as promoting energy level and weight loss. For my occasional aches and pains, I use ibuprofen.
Other health factors which commonly effect brain function include high blood pressure, vision/hearing problems, smoking, alcohol or drug use, migraines, brain injuries (even mild ones), and neurological & psychiatric disorders, etc. Be sure to go in for regular physical exams, and, if needed, ask for referrals to a specialist such as a nutritionist, optometrist, audiologist, allergy doctor, chiropractor, endocrinologist, neurologist, psychiatrist, or cognitive behavioral therapist. This goes for your kids, too! If your child has a health issue which impairs learning, better to catch it and treat it early!
Other supplements are also used to increase brain power. Vitamin B complex, vitamin E, fish oil, potassium, magnesium, calcium are all ones listed in the No More Brain Drain book. Gingko biloba is another one commonly used, but I don't know much about that. Caffeine can be either positive or negative. I only use the sugar-free drink packets when I really need to be able to focus for a few hours. It's not good to drink a lot of it, get dependent on it, or use it within a few hours of bedtime.
Stay tuned! I'll try to write about the mental, emotional, and life management factors of boosting brain power.

Mediterranean and Europe
MSC Splendida was the second of our 'Fantasia class' of cruise ships and the acclaim that greeted the launch of her sister would bode well for MSC Splendida. Indeed, the fact that we now have four 'Fantasia class' vessels says an awful lot about the quality of the original design.
Like her sisters MSC Splendida is a thoroughly modern yet decidedly stylish lady. She may bristle with features and facilities like squash courts, a 4D cinema and an F1 simulator but there is nothing 'gimmicky' about the on board experience on offer.
Nothing exemplifies this quality like the MSC Yacht Club, a VIP 'ship within a ship' area featuring 71 spacious suites and 24 hour butler service. Similarly the quality on offer at the MSC AUREA Spa has already garnered awards from the international cruise community. This class leading spa is run by highly-trained staff and combines the magic of Balinese massage with the most modern and exclusive treatments. Specialities include: traditional water treatments (a legacy from Roman times), saunas, Turkish bath, solarium, relaxation room, thalassotherapy, massage room and whirlpool baths. And, for those seeking more 'high impact' activities, there is an exercise room filled with the latest gym equipment.
Those looking to exercise outdoors will appreciate the jogging track, whilst those looking to cool off will appreciate MSC Splendida's spectacular main pool complex (there are four pools onboard in total) where 150 fountains and water jets provide fun and a great antidote to the Mediterranean sunshine!
On Board Highlights
Like the theatre La Reggia puts on a spectacular show night after night. The restaurant is distinguished by the attention paid to the details of its furnishings, refined porcelain to crystal glasses and silver flatware. And, every evening, La Reggia offers a different menu to celebrate an Italian region with its typical cuisine and most renowned wines.
The Villa Verde restaurant, on the ship's stern, features some of the best views anywhere on the ship. Imagine dining here as you slip away from another enticing port of call bound for yet another beautiful Mediterranean stopover. Villa Verde offers an assorted Mediterranean menu, including light choices and options that are always available.
Quite simply, the Mediterranean on a plate! L'Olivo offers delicacies from a full 14 different Mediterranean countries: Algeria, Croatia, Cyprus, Egypt, France, Greece, Israel, Italy, Libya, Morocco, Portugal, Spain, Tunisia and Turkey. Please note that the L'Olivo is dedicated to Yacht Club Passengers. Please note, this restaurant is dedicated to MSC Yacht Club passengers.

Sam Smith: 2010 Free Agency Economy's Latest Victim
Hmmm .... if Bosh really is in it for the money, his best option might actually be to re-sign here in Toronto considering the state of the economy in the U.S. as well Canada.
Good read considering who the source is. Quote:

The Killing Joke
Here's the question though. If you're a team and you know this financial armageddon is looming. Do you even bother handing out a max contract? Say if the cap goes down, do you want one player taking up even more of that number? I dunno. I also find it hilarious that all these guys want MAX deals. Wouldn't it make more sense to take a smaller more cap friendly deal and help the team build a winner? Yes it's utopian, but it happens in sports all the time.

yeah cg, but this is the 'all about the benjamins' generation. it is a rare occurrence for a player to forgo cash for the chance at a 'ship. i always felt that Bosh might be that kind of guy, given the head on his shoulders, but we've pissed that opportunity away through mediocrity. no way he gives up cash to further his chances with the raps at this point. cb is lookin out for cb now.

players want to collect as much dough as possible b/c the next day they could be playing their last game.
Also after retirement many NBA players aren't raking in the big bucks |

The Killing Joke
True enough and I know its utopian, but you look at football and how many deal get restructured just so the team has the ability to make itself better.
I find it hilarious though that guys in the NBA say, no I need more that say 12 million/yr. I need 22 million or whatever gross amount. It makes absolutely no sense to me, but yet again, it is utopian but if you want to build a winner in today's age, taking some pay cuts might be the way to go. |

The Killing Joke
It's because most do really dumb things with their money. I mean, some guys who make say, 6 million dollars, guaranteed over 4 years. That's 24 million dollars guaranteed to you. A person can live very comfortably on that. Problem is, a lot of people don't know how to spend their money, instead blow it all away. If that's the case, then well, sorry, you deserve to have no money. You had the opportunity many people would kill for and a salary many would kill for as well. If you blow it away, then well, sorry, that's your fault.

I think LeBron, Wade, Bosh, Joe Johnson all sign extensions
Redd and Chandler will become free agents in '11 Amare, Nash, T Mac, Josh Howard will be the biggest headliners |

When Bosh, Lebron, and Wade signed on until 2010, it was specifically centered around being able to negotiate according to the new CBA no? The idea was that there would be a lot more money to go around and the rules relaxed in terms of max years. And now it's looking like a very different situation.
I wonder if a looming strike would kill general interest in other teams looking to sign Bosh. Maybe he will take less in today's terms by being convinced that it will be more than he will find elsewhere, and particular in the future. That wouldn't be so bad. |

I don't know if it is the same as baseball but the MLBPA gets really pissed off when players don't take the highest contract offered to them or if they take a pay cut to help the team.
Reason being that while the extra 2 million bucks might mean nothing to the guy on the top in the long run, it places an improper value to that player. Then when a guy who is worse goes to get a salary GM's and Arbitrators point to players who voluntarily took the cut and say "Well if he is worth 8 million, YOU can't be worth 6, you're worth 4.5". The only time guys get away with it is when they are getting on in years, really want the championship and can basically tell the union to go fuck themselves because the odds of them needing the union for anything becomes lower. |

I can't remember who posted it, maybe you want to take some credit...it was a while back about the cap potentially going down and maybe these guys will sign shorter deals in the near team to get to the end of financial turmoil and then resign big....
Who was that? Looking pretty bright aren't ya? |

League trends aren't difficult to see, ESPECIALLY when it's your job to look for them. There was substantial CBA chatter two years ago, last year, and now. It ALL spoke about a spiralling economy. Effin agents, and greedy players with ZERO education on the economics involved are a sad reflection of whats happeneing in the NBA. sad. |

I long for the day when a star player forgoes a big pay day to accept a contract only worth a couple mil a year

Two families entangled in a long and complex history of love and deceit . . .
Twenty five years ago, after a society picnic held by businessman and politician Zeus Kronon, Zeus' headstrong daughter Dita was found murdered. Her boyfriend, Cass Gianis, confessed to the crime.
Now Cass has been released from prison into the care of his twin, Mayoral candidate Paul Gianis, who is in the middle of a high profile political campaign. But Dita's brother Hal is convinced there is information surrounding his sister's death that remains buried – and he won't rest until he's discovered the truth.
Hal's employee, former FBI Special Agent Evon Miller, teams up with Tim Brodie, a retired police officer, to investigate. After all this time, can they find evidence to place Paul Gianis, the 'innocent' twin, at the scene of the crime?
Soon Paul will find himself struggling to hold his campaign together amidst Hal's increasingly damning allegations. But what does the mayoral candidate really have to hide? And why has Cass Gianis vanished?
A gripping masterpiece of dark family rivalries, shadowy politics and hidden secrets, Identical is the stunning new thriller from bestselling author Scott Turow, writing at the height of his powers.

By accessing onboard diagnostics and performance data through ecoRoute hd, drivers can use a compatible Garmin nĂĽvi to wirelessly monitor real-time vehicle diagnostics for most vehicles while accurately calculating ecoRoute data and driver challenge scores (speed, acceleration, braking, etc.). By simply plugging the ecoRoute hd module into the vehicle's standardized onboard diagnostics port (OBD II), safely mounting the transmitter clear of vehicle controls and pedals, and completing the easy one-time pairing with nĂĽvi, drivers can start receiving the vital data from their vehicle and run diagnostic checks through nĂĽvi's intuitive interface before a trip to the auto shop is necessary. Drivers also get more accurate ecoRoute data, making fuel conservation easier than ever, and they can monitor their engine data (including temperature, RPM, emissions) and diagnostics through the Trip Computer screen and customizable Gauges screen. Drivers can then view Diagnostic Trouble Codes - with on-screen descriptions of some error codes - and reset the "check engine" light. ecoRoute hd will be compatible with many current and future nĂĽvi models, including 1260, 1370, 1390, 1490 and 1690.
Real-time data monitored by ecoRoute hd, which has an expected availability date of March 2010 for a suggested retail price of $149.99, includes vital diagnostics such as:
• Intake air temperature information
• Coolant temperature data
• Throttle position and engine load
• Intake manifold pressure
• Battery and charging system information
• Mass airflow rate
• Timing advance
• Emissions
Introduced by Garmin in 2009, ecoRoute is a free software update that helps drivers conserve money and fuel, easing growing pressures on personal budgets and the environment. In addition to "faster time" and "shorter distance" for route preference, ecoRoute lets nĂĽvi users choose "less fuel" as a routing option as the best way to help save gas and money. Through ecoRoute's Fuel Report, Mileage Report and fuel-saving tips, drivers can focus on fuel conservation even when they're not behind the wheel. Fuel Report tracks fuel usage over time, and Mileage Report monitors mileage and fuel usage on a per-trip basis. Drivers can customize their nĂĽvi to fit their vehicle by accessing the "vehicle profile" under ecoRoute in the tools menu. There, you can enter your car's fuel economy and the current price of gas to help nĂĽvi better calculate your savings. To find out if your nĂĽvi is compatible with ecoRoute through a free, downloadable software update, go to http://www.garmin.com/ecoroute.
ecoRoute hd is the latest breakthrough from Garmin, which has spent more than 20 years developing technologies and innovations to enhance users' lives, making Garmin a household name in the automotive, aviation, marine, wireless, outdoor and fitness industries.

I have downloaded several kiddies apps, book reading ones, but they dont have sound when they should have. Am i missing something obvious, and yes, i do have the volume turned up ! Sent from my iPad using iPF
Do you think possibly it is on purpose so that you and child can interact.Read together?I always liked picture book stories that have no words. Then we made up our own stories. It was a riot and way more fun than repeating the same old stagnant story time after time.Amazing to experience the ideas growth.
Hi, Just had the same problem myself. Luckily one of the apps told me that my mute was on. Very easily fixed, double click your home button, swipe from left to right, then click your mute button on the left hand side of the screen
Thanks it wasnt that. I deleted the app and reinstalled it, now have sound. Sent from my iPad using iPF

Durban – Sharks captain Jacques Botes admits they have made a poor start to the Currie Cup under their new coaching structure, but is confident things can be set right with a win over the Lions in Durban on Friday.
The coastal franchise lost their first game under newly-appointed director of rugby Brendan Venter, when they were stunned by 32-30 by Griquas at Kings Park last weekend.
"It wasn't the way we wanted to start a new era," Botes said ahead of the game.
"You want to start well with a new coaching set-up to give them confidence and give yourself confidence as well.
"So the message has been clear and the boys know what is expected of them.
"We want to get that win this weekend to get things back on track."
The veteran flanker is standing in as skipper following an injury to Keegan Daniel, who misses a second successive match due to knee problem.
Also out this week are centre Tim Whitehead (ankle and rib) as well as wing Sizo Maseko (hamstring), both of which have forced the Sharks to make two changes to their starting XV with SP Marais and Heimar Williams set to make their debuts.
Their visitors from Gauteng also made a poor start to the campaign, losing 30-29 at home to the Free State Cheetahs in their season-opener.
"Whoever we were going to play after a result like that (against the Cheetahs), we would expect to see us come out hard," Botes said.
"You expect to win your home games and we'll hope that starts happening from this week because we can't afford to lose here back-to-back.
"It's a vital match for both teams. They'll come out firing as they always do, they like to play an attractive brand of rugby, especially under Johan Ackermann, and it will demand a lot from us from a defensive point of view."
For the Lions, Springbok flyhalf Elton Jantjies has been included in their starting line-up as part of five changes, two being positional.
Their coach Ackermann said he was expecting a tough time in Durban.
"It definitely won't be easy," he said.
"But we'll make sure we are ready for the onslaught. We won't back down to any challenge."
As it turned out on the opening week of the competition, the Sharks' loss was the biggest, after Western Province and the Bulls played to a draw in Cape Town.
Botes said the results reflected how tight the competition will be in 2013.
"After our loss, we were quite happy to see a draw and no other team getting the full five log points," said Botes.
"It's going to be a tight competition, there is a new bunch of players coming through and I'm sure there will be some exciting rugby. – Sapa

Kangna Ranaut goes sans makeup for Queen
The gorgeous gal will be seen in a de-glam avatar in her forthcoming venture directed by the National Award-winning director Vikas Bahl
Miles away from her popular glamorous image, Kangna Ranaut will be seen playing a simpleton in Vikas Bahl's next movie titled Queen. The 25-year-old star is a toast of the fashion industry for her enviable style quotient. Click here to read more -
Katrina Kaif and Kareena Kapoor won't perform on New Year's Eve
The babes plan to indulge in happy family time rather than earning big bucks at some lavish New Year bash
Katrina Kaif and Kareena Kapoor will not be seen performing in happening New Year parties this year. The actors are firm about spending time with their near and dear ones. Click here to read more -
Can Kangna Ranaut match steps with Madhuri Dixit in 'Dedh Ishqiya'?
The Tezz actor is going to facing a tough challenge trying to keep up with the ace dancing diva
In Abhishek Choubey's Dedh Ishqiya Kangna Ranaut will be seen matching steps with dancing diva Madhuri Dixit. Uh ho! Now that means the Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai actor will have to work really hard on her dancing moves, right? Absolutely! And director Chaubey is amply aware of this fact and knows quite well that the Tanu Weds Manu gal is hardly twinkletoes. Click here to read more -
Was Ajay Devgn the real reason behind Kangna Ranaut missing out on film promotions?
While watching the promotions of Tezz and Rascals, we couldn't help but notice that Kangy was pointedly left out of it all
Ajay Devgn's loyalty graph to Kajol has been spotless, apart from a stray rumour that involved Kangna Ranaut. Click here to read more -
What's with Kangna Ranaut's new look?
Last we heard, the Tanu Weds Manu babe was supposed to lose weight for her role as a vamp in the Krrish sequel. But at a recent event, it looked as if the actor, along with her onscreen makeover, has also changed her off-screen style
Strutting around in a black hat and torn denims teamed with a casual polka dotted jacket and a T-shirt, Ms Ranaut was recently spotted at Dabboo Ratnani's calendar launch. She must have worked hard to achieve that super skinny frame; after all, fitting into the sinister mutant's costume has to be the only thing on the actor's mind these days. Click here to read more -
From skinny to skinnier- Kangna Ranaut is all set to disappear
Kangna Ranaut could carry off a bikini in Rascals, traditional clothes in Tanu Weds Manu and, we are also sure, a body-hugging mutant's costume in Krrish 2. But do you like Kangna in a super skinny avatar? We don't, for sure!The actor has been spotted at various events lately and, to our horror, she has started looking like a skeleton that's all set to be examined and dissected, getting set to be hung in a lab.

Kangna Ranaut desires Anna Hazare
Rakhi Sawant isn't the only chick in B-town who's capable of leaving you dumbstruck with her bold statements. Kangna Ranaut has hopped on to the same bandwagon and it looks like she's not afraid of speaking her mind any more, anywhere, to anyone!
As Simi Garewal confers Kangna with the India's most desirable label this weekend, the sexy babe gets into a 'no holds barred' conversation with the host. Right from spilling the beans about her love life to talking about the man she finds the most desirable, Kangy gets super candid on the show and, trust us, she provides us with some great fodder for entertainment.

This student residence is located in Avenida Parallel at the corner with Blasco de Garay in the Poble Sec district. It is just a 10-minute walk to Las Ramblas and Barcelona's old town of Ciutat Vella. The Ciutat Vella takes in the Barri Gòtic area and the world-famous promenade of Las Ramblas. The former is the city's medieval core, a maze of atmospheric alleyways clustered around the splendid Gothic cathedral. Quirky specialist shops and atmospheric bars and eateries abound. The Museu Picasso and the Museu d'Història de la Ciutat are particularly worth visiting.

'All of the beasts obeyed Noah when he admitted them into the ark. All but
the unicorn. Confident of his strength he boasted 'I shall swim!'. For fourty
days and fourty nights the rains poured down and the oceans boiled as in a pot
and all the heights were flooded. The birds of the air clung onto the ark and
when the ark pitched they were all engulfed. But the unicorn kept on swimming.
When, however, the birds emerged again they perched on his horn and he went
under– and that's why there are no more unicorns now.'
— from a Ukranian folk tale
The unicorn has been a topic of wonder and speculation for centuries. The
writings of such men as Aristotle, Genghis Khan, Saint Thomas, and Saint Gregory
reflect the fact that these men considered the unicorn as a very real creature.
Webester's Seventh defines a unicorn as 'a mythical animal generally depicted
with the body and head of a horse, hind legs of a stag, tail of a lion, and a
single horn in the middle of its forehead'. The word 'unicorn' comes from the
Latin 'Uni', meaning one, and 'Cornu, meaning horn.
The unicorn has been depicted in the folklore and legends of other cultures
besides ours. The Chinese believed that they had the body of a deer, with
horses' hooves and an ox's tail. Where in the west the horn was made of bone,
the Oriental unicorn's horn was made of flesh. The coat of the unicorn was of
the five sacred colors of the Chinese; red, yellow, blue, white, and black.
The Chinese called the unicorn 'K'i-lin'. To them, it was a symbol of
wisdom. Around 2800 BC, the Emperor Fu Hsi wrote of seeing a k'i-lin. He saw
markings on the coat of the animal, and and perceived those symbols as a written
language, thus giving credit to the k'i-lin for the establishment of the written
Chinese language.
The sighting of a K'i-in was a considered a good omen, and often signified
the birth of a good ruler. Other times, it appeared to give a warning to men.
A scouting party for Genghis Khan reported seeing a Chio-tuan, a type of K'i-
lin, that warned the party to stop the war, and that 'moderation will give
boundless pleasure'. Upon receiving the report, the Mongol stopped his battle
Unicorns were reported in India as well. The Greek Ctesias wrote of seeing a
'wild ass' there, which was as large as a horse. He said that the horn of the
unicorn was about a foot and a half long, and three colored, with the base being
white, the middle black, and the top red.
The best known legends surrounding the unicorn are in Western culture. The
common view of the unicorn as a horse with a horn is popular, and has been
depicted in our heritage for thousands of years. The unicorn is mentioned in
the Bible in several verses. The Palm Sunday tract in the Roman Catholic missal
reads, 'Deliver me from the lion's mouth, and my lowliness from the horns of
unicorns'. Saint Ambrose, the Bishop of Milan in the fourth century, considered
the unicorn a symbol of Christ as he wrote, 'Who then has one horn, unless it be
the only begotten son, the unique word of God, which has been next to God from
the very beginning?' Saint Augustine considered the horn of the unicorn to be a
symbol of the unity of the faith of the Church.
The horn of the unicorn has been sought after for centuries. In the west, it
was thought to have magical properties, and could purify poisons. Therefore, it
was a very valuable commodity to have. Pope Paul III is said to have paid
12,000 pieces of gold for one, but James I of England got a much better deal for
his, only paying 10,000 pounds Sterling for one. The horn of the narwhal was a
common substitute for that of the unicorn for those unscrupulous businessmen.
Because of that problem, a common test to determine the validity of a unicorn
horn was to use its magical properties of purification. David De Pomis wrote,
'There is very little of the true horn to be found, most of that which is sold
as such being either stag's horn, or elephant's tusk. A true test by which one
may know the genuine horn from the false: Place the horn in a vessel of any
sort of material you like, and with it three or four large and live scorpions,
keeping the vessel covered. If you find four hours later that the scorpions are
dead or almost lifeless, the horn is a good one, and there is not enough money
in the world to pay for it'.
The search for the unicorn, and proof of its existance, dates back almost as
far as the legends which surround it. Ctesias spoke of the unicorn in the court
of Darius II, the King of Persia in 416 BC. Chinese writings date back to 2800
BC. The men of the ancient world believed in the existance of the unicorn, so
the object of their searching was to find it, not to prove it existed. It
wasn't until later in history that man began to doubt the unicorn's physical
existance. In the ninth century, Margoulies wrote, 'It is universally held that
the unicorn is a supernatural being and of auspicious omen; so say the odes, the
annals, the biographies of worthies, and other texts whose authority is
unimpeachable. Even village women and children know the unicorn is a lucky
sign. But this animal does not figure among the barnyard animals, it is not
always easy to come across, it does not lend itself to zoological
classification, nor is it like the horse or bull, the wolf or deer. In such
circumstances we may be face to face with a unicorn and not know for sure that
we are. We know a certain animal with a mane is a horse and that a certain
animal with horns is a bull. We do not know what the unicorn looks like'.
Even though the existance of the unicorn is questionable, its symbolism is
not. The beast, like all mythological creatures, has been a reflection of man's
hopes and fears, dreams and nightmares, and inner consciousness. Freud
considered mythological beasts as representations of 'universal fears and
feelings'. Specifically, Jung thought that the purity of the unicorn was of
greater importance. Most mythological creatures represent man's worst traits,
and are usually more evil than animals, or man. They kill for pleasure, and are
often involved in unspeakable atrocities. The unicorn is an exception to the
rule, being a symbol of purity, hope, love, and majesty.
The decline of the unicorn began with the Renaissance and the advent of
scientific thought. The beliefs that had held for thousands of years began to
crumble when man could not prove the existance of the unicorn. Systematically,
report after report of a unicorn was attributed to a more believable occurance
of a more mundane animal. Rhinos, goats, and horses were all considered
explanations of unicorns. As technology advanced, more exact tests and record
keeping were developed, which added to the mounting evidence against the
unicorn. Finally, the unicorn was added to the list of animals regarded as
'mythical', and would later only be found in children's stories and other
What of the unicorn today? The unicorn is returning, if only symbolically.
It is that symbolism that people are seeking today, the idea of natural truth,
purity, and love that much of society has lost in the shadow of technology.
Odell Shepard wrote, 'It is not that the men of the Middle Ages who believed in
unicorns were less intellegent than we; their intellegence was turned in a
different direction… we wrong ourselves when we insist that if they cannot
make good their flesh and blood actuality on our level we will have none of
them'. To find the unicorn, as the ancients did, we have to unlearn what we
have learned; we must go back to an earlier way of looking at the world. Only
then will we find the unicorn.
'Well, now we have seen each other,' said the unicorn, 'if you'll believe in
me, I'll believe in you. Is that a bargain?'
–Lewis Carroll

Using innovative Geographic information system (GIS) technology and land parcel identification systems (LPIS), the European Commission is playing a key role in preventing agricultural subsidy irregularities. Through better monitoring of Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) reforms, the Commission is ensuring that subsidies are distributed more efficiently, fairly and reliably.
The Agriculture and Fisheries Council Meeting in Brussels today will underline that implementing fair CAP reforms is essential. GIS technology is a computerised form of mapping technology, linked to databases containing information associated with the mapped features, in this case fields and field boundaries. LPIS digital data is a key reference to ensure that aid for any piece of land is claimed once only, and only by one farmer, helping identify anomalies. Farmers can now directly observe their land, more precisely determine their boundaries, and file more accurate subsidy applications. The Commission and EU Member States will also be better able to spot irregularities.
"These reforms and monitoring measures will enable the EU-wide geographical management of agricultural subsidy data," says Commissioner Philippe Busquin.

Astronomers from Bonn and Tautenburg in Thuringia (Germany) used the 100-m radio telescope at Effelsberg to observe several galaxy clusters. At the edges of these large accumulations of dark matter, stellar systems (galaxies), hot gas, and charged particles, they found magnetic fields that are exceptionally ordered over distances of many million light years. This makes them the most extended magnetic fields in the universe known so far.
The results will be published on March 22 in the journal "Astronomy & Astrophysics".

The moment we all waited for finally came at the very end of Sasquatch – The Postal Service took the mainstage to uproar from a massive audience. Lights erupted, everyone infamous entered the stage, and they started off with "The District Sleeps Alone Tonight". Every song was greeted with audience response, faces in the crowd alternated between smiles and singing along, to watching near slack jawed, overwhelmed at the event. Flirting across stage they played everything you wanted to hear, Gibbard and Jenny Lewis dancing along with the light show that lit up the gorge. Towards the end of the set Gibbard said "We're here because of a love song" which lead into "Such Great Heights" -as well as reminiscing about the band's early days, which only feels like yesterday. Despite all the years in between then and now, The Postal Service played a gorgeous set, from high above near the top of the gorge I could see the waves of heads bobbing along, and hear the wonderment at finally seeing a band that influenced an entire generation of people with one simple and sweet little album.
