Pregnacare is the UK's most popular pregnancy supplement brand, and is trusted by mums to safeguard the diet of those who are planning for pregnancy or are already pregnant. Pregnacare Liquid is a scientifically developed formulation of 18 important vitamins and minerals, including 400mcg folic acid and 10mcg vitamin D, the exact levels as recommended by the UK Department of Health. Pregnacare Liquid has been carefully developed by experts so that all ingredient levels are within safe levels for pregnancy and are moderate rather than excessive.
Pregnacare Liquid has been developed as an alternative supplement format for those who may have difficulty in swallowing tablets or simply prefer a liquid format. Providing an ideal alternative to tablets, the great tasting orange flavour liquid is gentle on the stomach.
The UK Department of Health recommends all women planning a baby should take a supplement containing 400mcg of folic acid and 10mcg vitamin D from the start of trying to conceive until the 12th week of pregnancy. This is the exact amount of folic acid contained in Pregnacare Liquid.
Supplemental folic acid intake increases maternal folate status†. Low maternal folate status is a risk factor in the development of neural tube defects in the developing foetus. Folic Acid is also beneficial beyond 12 weeks as it contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy.
Many studies show the importance of ensuring the correct intake of various vitamins and minerals throughout the entire pregnancy and while you are a new mum. Pregnacare provides a range of nutrients for overall support, all at sensible, carefully balanced comprehensive levels, including vitamins B2, B6 and B12 which contribute to normal red blood cell formation. Also includes zinc which contributes to normal reproductive health.
Unlike some prenatal iron supplements, Pregnacare has been specifically formulated with an ideal, moderate level of iron. High levels of iron are not recommended unless there is a particular requirement as identified by your healthcare professional.
Pregnacare has been formulated by Vitabiotics experts during pregnancy to help safeguard a mother's diet. Pregnacare provides a comprehensive spectrum of essential nutrients at carefully chosen safe levels, developed on the basis of international research. Pregnacare is proud to work in partnership with the Royal College of Midwives to support the health of mothers and babies by raising awareness of the benefits of good nutrition.
Pregnacare is recommended before conception to build up the stores of nutrients such as iron in women who are trying for a baby. Good nutrition is important to help prepare a woman's body for the additional demands placed on it during pregnancy. Certain nutrients, like folic acid, vitamin B12 and zinc are also of particular importance from the very first moment of conception. Zinc contributes to normal fertility and reproduction whilst vitamin B12 contributes to normal red blood cell formation and also has a role in the process of cell division. It also includes iodine which is often recommended during pregnancy.
Good nutritional intake is vital throughout pregnancy, not just the first 12 weeks. Pregnacare Liquid provides essential nutrients throughout pregnancy including folic acid which has an important role during the full nine months and contributes to normal blood formation. You can start taking Pregnacare at any point during pregnancy.
Pregnacare Liquid is available in the UK from Boots, supermarkets, pharmacies and health stores. Alternatively you can order online here.

Before and during pregnancy:
Two 5ml teaspoonfuls per day.
(One teaspoonful = approx.5ml. 5ml spoon included)
Pregnacare Liquid should not be taken on an empty stomach. Recommended with or following a meal. Do not exceed the recommended intake. Excessive consumption may produce laxative effects. You can start taking Pregnacare at any point during pregnancy. This comprehensive formula replaces other Pregnacare supplements and multivitamins. There is no need to take an additional multivitamin.
Food supplements must not replace a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. As with other food supplements, seek professional advice before using if you are under medical supervision, suffer from food allergies, or are allergic to any of the ingredients.
As Pregnacare contains vitamin K, if you are taking oral anticoagulants (e.g. warfarin) do not take Pregnacare except on the advice of a doctor. Vitamin K is not known to specifically interact with the action of aspirin or heparin. This product contains iron, which if taken in excess by very young children may be harmful.
Store below 25°C in a dry place, out of sight and reach of children. To open bottle, press & turn childproof cap. Keep tightly closed. After opening store in fridge out of reach of children and use within 6 weeks.
During pregnancy, your baby is totally reliant on what you eat as their only source of nourishment. So even with a good diet, extra specific nutrients may be very important around the time of pregnancy. Pregnacare has been specially formulated so mothers-to-be can safeguard their extra dietary requirement without confusion about which supplements to take. Pregnacare Liquid has been developed for those that may have difficulty in swallowing tablets or simply prefer a liquid format, with a great tasting orange flavour. Pregnacare Liquid contains a careful combination of 18 vitamins and minerals, including 400mcg folic acid, 10mcg vitamin D, and vitamin B12. Top
Pregnacare is recommended as soon as you start trying to conceive to help safeguard your nutritional needs before you find out you are pregnant; throughout the whole of your pregnancy and also whilst breast-feeding when extra demands are placed on your body. Pregnacare can be used for as long as required, and can be started at any point during pregnancy. Top
Pregnacare has been carefully developed by a team of medical experts including highly qualified pharmacists and nutritional experts, and is based upon solid scientific research evidence, as a nutritional safeguard for women from before conception, and all throughout pregnancy. Pregnacare is a multivitamin and mineral dietary supplement formulated to safeguard the nutritional needs of mother and baby. Pregnacare Liquid replaces your usual daily multivitamin. Your doctor may wish to prescribe an additional iron supplement after the 13th week of pregnancy, which may be taken with Pregnacare. Top
As a general rule, Pregnacare can be taken alongside medications because it contains only moderate levels of vitamins and minerals. However, if you are already taking prescribed supplements or medications, seek advice from your doctor or health professional first. As Pregnacare contains vitamin K, if you are taking oral anticoagulants (blood thinners) do not take Pregnacare except on the advice of a doctor. Vitamin K is not known to specifically interact with the action of aspirin or heparin. Top
Before and during pregnancy take two x 5ml teaspoonsful of Pregnacare Liquid per day (10ml total). A 5ml spoon is included in the pack. Each 200ml bottle provides 20 days supply. Top
Two x 5ml teaspoonsful per day is recommended with or immediately after your main meal. Pregnacare should only be taken on a full stomach. Taking the supplement with a large meal maximises the absorption of the nutrients, and can reduce the occasional mild nausea which is sometimes experienced if multivitamins are taken on an empty stomach. After opening store the liquid in the fridge. Pregnacare Liquid is suitable for vegetarians. Top
Pregnacare has no known side-effects when taken as directed. Do not exceed the recommended intake. In case of overdose, seek medical advice immediately. Top
Please see nutritional information click here Top
Pregnacare Liquid does not contain calcium, but if required an additional calcium and magnesium supplement such as Osteocare can be taken with Pregnacare. Top
NRV levels are calculated to help prevent the most basic vitamin and mineral deficiency states. The levels contained in Pregnacare are specific to normal requirements in pregnancy. This is why some levels of nutrients in Pregnacare are higher than the NRV (e.g. folic acid, the recommended level is 200% NRV). More importantly, all levels are safe for pregnancy and well within upper safety guidelines for daily self-supplementation. Top
No, Pregnacare does not contain any vitamin A in the multivitamin liquid which has been carefully formulated specially for pregnancy to contain a moderate (non-excessive) level of betacarotene (provided as natural mixed carotenoids) instead of vitamin A. Betacarotene (pro-retinol) is converted into vitamin A naturally by the body as required, and is safe and suitable for pregnancy. Top
It is perfectly safe to take 400 mcg of folic acid per day throughout the whole of pregnancy. The U.K. Department of Health recommends that women planning a pregnancy should take a supplement containing 400 mcg folic acid daily, from the start of trying to conceive until the 12th week of pregnancy, especially in relation to neural tube development in the developing baby. However folic acid also plays a role in the process of cell division and contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy. Folic acid on its own or within Pregnacare may therefore be taken throughout pregnancy. Pregnacare gives the advantage of not only providing folic acid, but other essential nutrients as well. Top
A regular intake is recommended, but don't worry, this will not have done any harm. Simply take Pregnacare on the next day when you remember, and take as directed. You should not take more than the recommended amount on subsequent days to make up for any day(s) that you have missed. Whilst it is important to take a supplement every day, if you miss one day this is fine because the beneficial effects of the vitamins and minerals build over time. Top

"My best friend started taking Pregnacare in December 2015, within her first packet after 10 years of hoping for a baby she fell pregnant. I decided after having my own struggles to conceive (12 years ttc) and being told I have high testosterone and signs of pcos and irregular periods thinking "it will never happen for me". I bought Pregnacare thinking, worse case scenario, I get some vitamins in me. Well first pack down (just) and we have found out I am pregnant. It has just blown my mind."
"These pills are really good! It's been 6 years since I've been TTC, done a lot of research on fertility and pills and came across Pregnacare vitamins after reading the info I decided to give it a try. I found out I was 5 weeks pregnant! I'm so excited. Thank you Pregnacare"
"I naturally conceived aged 48 years old, and my son was born when I was 49. I believe I am now the oldest first time mum, who conceived naturally, in the uk. I took Pregnacare Conception before I became pregnant, and I believe this contributed to my fertility at this older age; for this I would like to thank your company."
""Hi Pregnacare! I would just love to compliment you on your product! It is amazing! It has helped to keep me and my baby healthy throughout my whole pregnancy and I have no doubt it will carry on.

"Hi, thanks for making Pregnacare it is such a great product. I used it as soon as I found out I was pregnant the first time and found it helped so much, I had a healthy pregnancy and everything went much more smoothly for me than friends who never took Pregnacare. I have now started taking pregnacare again on my second pregnancy as i felt constantly tired without it so the product definitely works, thanks for making this product it is excellent :)"

"I just wanted to say what a super product Pregnacare is. I used it all through my first pregnancy and have used it again with my second baby. My friends are pregnant so I have advised them to take it too as it was the best and a reasonable price too. Keep up the good work and thanks for being such a good company to us mums."
"As I sit here typing this with my 11 week old beautiful little baby girl in my arms I realise how very lucky I am. After 12 hours of labour my little girl was stuck and had to be delivered with forceps. I lost 2 litres of blood and I firmly believe that the reason I did not require a blood transfusion was because of your product Pregnacare which I took throughout my pregnancy. You see my haemoglobin level was very high and dropped, but still to a safe level. I feel it was a key part in helping throughout the birth process and after emergency surgery. So thank you from the three of us!"
"I started using Pregnacare conception and I didn't even finish my first box and fell pregnant...Its amazing and really works. Thank you, I will be recommending to everyone."
"I just wanted to say how wonderful the Pregnacare Breast-feeding supplements are. I have a 7 month old baby and I am breastfeeding. I had been extremely run down and struggled to get day to day tasks done. My mother in-law saw these tablets in her local chemist just over a month ago, and I have been taking them ever since. Myself and my husband noticed a change in my energy levels within 2 or 3 days of taking them. Thank you for making this wonderful product, I feel like the old me again - I only wish I'd found them sooner! "
"My husband and I had been trying to conceive for 17 months. I took Pregnacare Conception for one month and conceived before I'd even finished the first packet! I'm now 11 weeks pregnant and have been taking Pregnacare Plus for the past 2 months and am so far, having an easy pregnancy - I feel great. I would definitely recommend these tablets to anybody else."
"I just want to thank you for your wisdom and expertise in coming up with Pregnacare. This product helped my wife give birth to a very bouncing and active baby boy. My baby will be 7 months old and he has been crawling and learning how to stand up already. Before pregnancy she was on WELLWOMAN and switched to PREGNACARE right from conception. By taking Pregnacare she has had a very healthy pregnancy and my baby was born healthy with a good weight. There were no complications during her pregnancy. Thank you."
"I am 7 months pregnant and for the first 3 months I was using... just folic acid and iron tablets. I decided to move onto Pregnacare after the pharmacist recommended them to me. I've been on Pregnacare ever since and I wouldn't go back. They give me all the vitamins I need to have a healthy baby. My pregnancy is going fantastically well, thanks to Pregnacare."
"We decided to try for a baby after 8 years of marriage. I decided to take Pregnacare Conception and after the first box, I fell pregnant and I had a very good pregnancy. I went on to take Pregnacare Plus and I gave birth to a health baby boy on his exact due date. I continued to take Pregnacare breast feeding, I would highly recommend this product. "
"I have just started using Vitabiotics Pregnacare Conception after a close friend recommended it to me as she has had trouble conceiving for years. She took Pregnacare Conception and didn't even finish the box and is now six months pregnant. I have heard of the effectiveness of the product from several people and cant wait to soon live its wonders..! "
"I used Pregnacare for both my pregnancies and after my second pregnancy I used Pregnacare Breast-feeding and I cannot express how brilliant this product is! It is fantastic and gives you all of the vitamins you need! if I ever have another baby I will certainly be using these products again as both my boys are very healthy and happy :) thank you Pregnacare!"
"After being told I would have trouble conceiving I decided to take Pregnacare conception and after a year I fell pregnant, during my pregnancy I took Pregnacare with Omega and when my baby was born he was very strong and alert and he is very advanced for his age, so I definitely think it's down to Pregnacare. "
"I just wanted to say that the Breastfeeding supplement is amazing! I was determined not to supplement my son, despite slow weight gain so started taking Pregnacare Breast-feeding myself a month ago. He is a different baby which I am putting down to more nutritious milk. Thank you so much, would recommend to anyone"
"I just wanted to say a big thank you to Pregnacare! I am now 33 weeks along with a very active baby and have been taking Pregnacare with Omega 3 from the first month onwards. I am quite a fussy eater and was worried about not eating any fish during the pregnancy. With Pregnacare, I didn't have to worry about missing out on anything needed for my baby (DHA, Omega oils, Folic Acid) and so many people have commented on how healthy I looked during my pregnancy - they were amazed! I was so happy that I was able to get them when I was in Hong Kong because of your superb mail order service and I am now ordering them from Japan. I have stocked up on Pregnacare Breastfeeding for after the pregnancy and have even ordered Wellman for my husband to try. Thank you so much and I would highly recommend Pregnacare to anyone who is thinking about getting pregnant or is pregnant now - it really works!"
"After trying to conceive for 2 years, we both started to take Pregnacare His and Her Conception about 2 months ago. I am now 6 weeks pregnant-it really does work! Thank you."

I also gave Pregnacare to my 5 good friends, all of whom will have a baby soon. It`s really amazing and I wanted to share this story with you."
"My husband and I had been trying to conceive for 2 years. I started to taking Pregnacare conception about 3 months ago. 8 weeks ago I decided that my hubby needs to start taking Wellman Conception and BAM I am now 6 weeks pregnant! It really does work! Thank you."
"I took Pregnacare Original throughout my pregnancy and not only did it ensure that both baby and I were getting all the best vitamins possible, but we now have a beautiful baby boy who at 4 months old surprises us every day with how strong he is. I'm convinced all the vitamins and minerals in Pregnacare helped him to be as strong and healthy as he is today and as parents it's great to know you've given him the best possible start, even before he arrived! I would absolutely recommend Pregnacare to any mum-to-be."
"I have taken Pregnacare in my last pregnancy, and felt so healthy compared with my other pregnancies. We are now planning our next baby and have started to take them again, i have recommended them to every pregnant women i come across so thank you."

"I started taking Pregnacare Plus as soon as I was pregnant through the whole 40 weeks and what a difference it made in my wellbeing. My son was born very alert and wide eyed right from the first minute. His motor skills for a new born are amazing. I am continuing with the Pregnacare breast-feeding & new mum and am sure it will continue to keep me and my son very healthy and strong. Thanks for a very good product."

"I think Pregnacare His & Hers (for women and men) is brilliant. We have been trying for a baby for about 11 months and after taking Pregnacare His & Hers tablets for only 2 weeks I have found out that I'm pregnant after the first month. I am now about 3 weeks pregnant. Thank you, my husband and I are soooo happy."
"My Husband and I have been trying for a baby for 3 years now. I decided to try Pregnacare Plus Omega 3, I took this for 2 months and I am 5 months pregnant now, our scan shows our baby is developing perfectly with great movement in the womb. I believe this is all due to Pregnacare, thank you so much!"
"I took pregnacare from about three months until the end of my pregnancy. My baby boy was born very very alert and could follow my partners finger the day he was born. He only weighed 6lb at birth but even the midwives commented on his alertness. I tell everyone it's due to pregnacare ... I'm sure it is :) now breatfeeding I take pregnacare breast-feeding and feel happy knowing I'm providing my baby the healthiest milk I can especially as I'm a fussy eater. Definitely recommend!"
"I was using Pregnacare Conception 2 and a half months before I became pregnant. I thought they were very good and also they weren't too hard on the stomach. I am nearly 7 weeks gone now and I am using up my remaining tablets."
"Dear Vitabiotics, after two years trying to conceive, my partner and I started fertility treatment as we were told we would need ICSI/IVF . I started taking Pregnacare Conception and my partner switched to Wellman Conception as soon as we found out about it. Less than two months later and I am five weeks pregnant - naturally. We are both 42 years old. I will be recommending your product to anyone trying to conceive."
"During my first 2 pregnancies i was prescribed high dose iron tablets which had side effects. The 3rd time round i decided to try Pregnacare which had a good level of iron and along with a healthy diet i didn't have any problems .I can't praise it highly enough!"
"I used Pregnacare Plus Omega 3 all the way through my first pregnancy and I felt great. My baby was so strong and healthy when he was born, and has continued to be so. When tested he was 7 months ahead in his intelligence and progress and although I can't prove it, I put a lot of this down to combining the Pregnacare Plus with a good diet. I will be using Pregnacare now I am pregnant again. I am just glad I am able to get these now I have moved to Chile."
"After 3 IVF attempts with no luck we decided the our fourth will be the last one, on the way to the clinic we saw the Pregnacare ad in the tube and decided to try..... What a difference that made, everything was so much better this time round and the result..........a twin pregnancy!!! So just like to say a big thank you. I have recommended Pregnacare to quite a few people, one family member who was going for IVF took it as well and now has twin girls also!!!"
"Just want to say Pregnacare is a great compact multivitamin. The antenatal doctor recommended your product and I have never looked back or regretted it. They are easily tolerated and instead of having to take folic acid separately I was happy with just the one pill to take. I have taken Pregnacare for just under one month & am feeling great. Highly thanking your team."
"Since I found out I was pregnant I have been taking your Pregnacare Plus Omega 3 and have been so so happy with the product and the way it has kept me healthy and given me the right amount of everything needed for me and baby. I have also used daily or every other day your Pregnacare streching cream which is fab and I have not one stretch mark on my body none at all, I have again used this from the beginning. I am 8 month's 1 week pregnant so really am at the last stretch and can't say enough how pleased I am I chose Pregnacare products."
"my husband and i want to say thank you very much for your product pregnacare conception.We've been trying for almost ten years to have a baby and nothing happened, but with the help of this product...I am almost a months pregnant now...thank you again."
"Dear Sir/Madam, i have been trying for a baby for 3yrs and after using Pregnacare Conception for 1month i finally conceived. Thanks for the production of this supplement."
"I would highly recommend Pregnacare Conception - i have been taking Pregnacare then changed to Conception - I got pregnant before the end of my first box. They are easy to take (with food) with plenty of vitamins & iron for energy - especially in the first few weeks of pregnancy. Thank You!!"
"This product is Awesome. I wanted a prenatal supplement and went to the pharmacy to shop around. The packaging looked informative and appealing so I chose it. This was November, by December I was pregnant (1mth)! I took it every day. My baby was born in the ending of July at a whopping 8lbs11oz. He was beautiful: skin glowing, healthy and vibrant. I made it a point of my duty to invite every pregnant mother at my work place to use it. Currently there are six and they all testify wonderful things about their pregnancies on this pill. I would definitely recommend it to every mother. Thanks, Pregnacare. "
"I've already had two children so when the pregnancy test kept being negative i was worried! We tried for 1 year,then i read about your before you conceive vitamin. I thought i would give it a go and a month later a was with child,sooooo thank you i am sure its thanks to you guys!i feel great as well so fingers crossed"
"Since taking Pregnacare, I feel much more full of energy. Thanks!"
"An email to thank you for creating good products for me. When I wanted to get pregnant,I took Pregnacare- and had a healthy baby (naturally) at 46 ! "
"Pregnacare is a lovely supplement for pregnant women. It gives me so much energy that without it my pregnancy would have been very difficult and dull!! I never forget to take Pregnacare since I first started…and no other supplement compares to Pregnacare!! It's fabulous!!"
"Hello, Just a quick note to complement you on your excellent, fast delivery and communication of despatch with my order of Pregnacare tablets. I have never ordered from you before and I am always dubious about internet transactions, but I needn't have worried as the standard of service is excellent. The bonus point scheme is a great idea also, I shall certainly use you again and shall recommend you to friends and family. Thank you. "
"Working in a new job and just finding out you're pregnant is not easy! Of course you need to focus on trainings, inductions and all the rest, and you don't want to appear unethusiastic. Well, for the first 8 weeks, I had a tough time. Luckily, a colleague recommended Pregnacare. Ever since I started taking it, I have felt energetic and more alert during the day. "
"I would like to thank vitabiotics for developing Pregnacare tablets, I took them every day for a year before I became pregnant and all through my pregnancy, and after, I had a very healthy 9lb 2oz baby girl now 17 months and now I am taking the Pregnacare again, whilst trying for another baby. My consultant in hospital said it was excellent that I was taking such a good combination of minerals and vitamins throughout my pregnancy, as it gave my unborn baby such a great start. Many thanks"
"I am 12 weeks pregnant, and recently started taking your Pregnacare tablets. I have already found them making a great difference and wellbeing. Thank you."
"When I first found out I was pregnant, I was lacking iron. I saw a leaflet that was given to me in a mum-to-be pack which was pregnacare. I thought I'd give it a try and ever since taking them I have felt great, and had no problems with the amount of iron and also my baby's growth is well too. I definitely recommend these to anyone. 21 years old, 30wks pregnant. (at time of this review 30/06/04)"
"I just wanted to tell you how wonderful Pregnacare is. I was ill all the way through my first pregnancy with terrible sickness and anaemia, was off work almost constantly and ended up in hospital. I dreaded the same thing when I became pregnant again. However I took Pregnacare all the way through as I was still breastfeeding my son as well and this time I sailed through the pregnancy with no problems at all. In fact the only day I was sick was the one day I forgot to take my Pregnacare pill the night before. Coincidence? Who knows? I know that every pregnancy is supposed to be different but the difference was rather extreme - from a miserable shivering wreck who could do nothing but lay down all day to an active healthy women full of life and energy. Thank you so much. I am still continuing to take Pregnacare as I am breastfeeding and would recommend it to anyone. "

If a team announces during the offseason that a player is changing position, that should be enough to give him eligibility at said position.

When Sylvie struck up a conversation online with a stranger, she was ready for an evening of "50 Shades of Grey-type" sex with the gorgeous 37-year-old model with blue eyes and washboard abs. However, when she removed her blindfold after having sex with the man in his Parisian flat, she learned that her partner-in-kink was actually a balding 68-year-old man with glasses and a pot belly.
"I felt total disgust," the woman said.
Sylvie is one of two women who are claiming to have been raped by 68-year-old Michel. A second woman has also reported that a man posing as "Anthony Laroche" using a model's pictures enticed her into sex, and blindfolded her so she couldn't see his true identity, Mail Online reports.
Michel was arrested and is being investigated for "rape by surprise," however he says the situation does not constitute rape.
"For me, when she entered the bedroom naked, she was consenting," Michel told police. "At that moment, she couldn't care less what I looked like. If she had asked just once if I was really the man in the photo, I would have told her the truth. Some women have a crazy side to them and like men who surprise them."
The victim's lawyers disagree and still says the situation is absolutely rape. Michel's lawyer, or course, dosen't see it that way.
"'Rape implies the absence of consent. Here the women were at no time forced. As for the photos of the model, they were too good to be true. I wonder if these women didn't knowingly close their eyes to the truth in more ways than one," he told MailOnline.

Nice apartment, all clean coming with towels and sheet.
Neighbours were a bit loud & no internet though
The room was perfect and the service. Good kitchen and the three toilets was convenient for three ladies about 70 + !! But the stairs to come to the sixth floor was difficult without a lift. That you should have told us.
But we are happy for choosing this opportunity, we got some exercise physically
thank you.
Elvi Sederlin
It was a very nice welcoming place. The room was spacious, clean and Fritz is a very friendly person. Good experience
we enjoyed it a lot! A lot of space and a very comfy rainshower in the badroom! No noise. Although the neighbourhood does not have a very good name, we had no troubles and it is very close to the citycentre and hauptbahnhof!
Our stay was very pleasent and the room was perfect for us!
Everything went well, and our host was really flexible!
Everything in Hamburg is in walking distance from the apartment! I would really recommend this place!
Very good, everything worked perfect, large apartments,
simple but clean, close to subway, 10 min walk to central station
The stay in this room was okay. Carmen turned out to be a man called Fritz in reality, and Fritz doesn't like his guests to wear shoes inside, and asks a man to pee in a sitting position. If this doesn't bother you it is just fine.
We had a wonderful trip to Hamburg. This booking was my first booking here on Wimdu and I'm really postive.
The adpartment was clean and really share friendly. Everything was very easy, so we all had a very good experience.
Many thanks
Great place, very clean, close to the S-Bahn and U-Bahn. Overall would recommend to anyone!
The experience was awesome! We had a great time with great hosts, who were very friendly and cooperative! We seriously arrived around midnight, yet the landlord was very friendly and gave us the keys to settle ourselves in. The apartment's placed on a square where at night you might not just walk around by yourself and try to mingle with people. But there was no immediate threat or danger, so all sorts of groups can hire and stay the night(s).
I was pleased with the room, which was tidy and also very wide. We had access to shared bathrooms and a toilet. Never used the kitchen, but we could easily have cooked something or eat breakfast or lunch in it. When it comes to parking, the best one is to have it placed inside a parking garage (Difficulty to park outside + the fact that there will be enough diverse people on the street at night. We can highly recommend this place and are looking forward to be using your services again! Gordon & Tamara

What's the Spread in Mike v. Freddy?
The Tet offensive, United States v. Nixon, Iran-Contra, Monica Lewinski . . . such are the kinds of trials that befall chief executives who enjoy easy, overwhelming re-election. It happens on the metro beat, too, with mayors whoeven if untouched by scandallimp through the end of their time in office, like Jimmy Walker, William O'Dwyer, John Lindsay, and pre-9-11 Rudy Giuliani. Hopefully, probably, Mike Bloomberg will avoid that fate.
But wait! He hasn't actually won a second term yet! But you wouldn't know that from reading the papers this weekend. Everyone seems to be in agreementas many have said since March or earlierthat the question now isn't whether Mayor Mike will prevail but by how much. First there was the declaration on the cover of Saturday's Post that, "It's over." Then The Times on Sunday crystal balled the Democrats' hopes in 2009 and beyond. And Michael Goodwin of the Daily News decided no Dem could have beaten Bloomberg, even if Bloomberg didn't spend $66 million (So why'd he spend $66 million, then? I mean, he's a businessman, right?). Joe Mercurio, the veteran consultant who was with Virginia Fields for part of this campaign, sent around a message stating the record that Bloomberg might beat on Tuesday: the largest margin of victory by a Republican mayor (LaGuardia's 1937 victory was by 454,000 votes and more than 19 percent).
Of course, Ferrer still says he can win, and theoretically he can. There's no way the mayor will win by the 34-point spread the polls give him, and declarations like the Post's only complicate the Bloomberg campaign's task of getting voters out to support a man who seems destined to win without breaking a sweat. Still, for Ferrer to prevail would take an upset of unprecedented proportions.
Given that, it's no surprise that the candidates are treating these last 48 hours very differently. Ferrer and Bloomberg's public schedules are released to the press on the understanding that we aren't supposed to publish them, but speaking broadly, Bloomberg has 11 events scheduled for Monday to Ferrer's four. The mayor is slated to start the day five minutes earlier than Freddy, and hizzoner's final event is more than five hours later than his challenger's. That doesn't mean Ferrer is slacking-off around the final turnduring the lulls in the public schedule he's likely to be hitting radio shows pretty hardbut it illustrates the very different playing field each man faces. Ferrer has to target as many voters as he can by using the airwaves and appearing at major commuter hubs, and he has to stay flexible. Bloomberg, meanwhile, can afford to take something of a victory tour, thanking volunteers, having fun, and picking a few key districts where his people think he can wring out a few more votes. And why not? He's got the time, and (yeah) the money.

The group show "An Image" curated by Alessio Ascari was held at KALEIDOSCOPE's project space in Milan in 2011. Titled after the exhibited 1983 video by German-based artist and filmmaker Harun Farocki about a four-day photo shoot for Playboy magazine, the exhibition presented a multi-faceted reflection on image-making, examining how artists have addressed and appropriated modes of image production, post-production, collection and distribution in contemporary culture.
Drawing connections to the groundbreaking experiments of Pop art, photo-conceptualism and the Pictures generation, the show gathers artists spanning different generations and a wide range of media to discuss the politics of images in the present tense, paying special attention to the strategies and dynamics of advertising and the mass media and to the evolving idea of representation in the current digital era. Participating artists included Bernadette Corporation, Anders Clausen, Roe Ethridge, Harun Farocki, Nikolas Gambaroff, Massimo Grimaldi, David Jablonowski, Oliver Laric, Graham Little, Mathias Poledna, Timur Si-Qin, Lucie Stahl, Ger van Elk, and Ian Wallace.
"Image is everything" is the tagline uttered by tennis world champion Andre Agassi in a series of wildly successful commercials by technology giant Canon, released in no less significant a year than 1990 and celebrating a new simplicity in amateur photography. By that time, the power of mass media had already imposed itself on an increasingly image-obsessed consumer society. What came next is history: in 1991, the Associated Press published an article with the headline, "Electronics Takes a Big Step Closer to Replacing Film," and within the space of a decade, digital imaging had prospered to the extent of transforming the entire processes of image production and dissemination, walking (or rather, running!) arm in arm with the diffusion of personal computers, the progress in software engineering, and the biggest technological revolution of our times—the birth of the World Wide Web.

Grading the 2015 version of Pew study of public attitudes toward science
So everybody knows that the Pew Research Center released a cool study yesterday on public attitudes toward science & on differences between public & scientists (or at least AAAS members; it's worth noting that AAAS membership isn't limited to scientists per se).
It was a follow up to Pew's classic 2009 study of the same -- & it makes just as huge and valuable a contribution to scholarly understanding as that one, in my view.
Lots of people have said lots of things already & will say even more. But here are a few thoughts:
1. Pew does great work in measuring US public attitudes toward science & scientists. They ask questions that it is sensible to believe measure general public regard for the enterprise of science, and keep track over time.
When one adds their findings to those collected by the National Science Foundation and the National Opinion Research Center at the University of Chicago, which conducts General Social Survey, source of most of the NSF's annual "Science Indicator" measures, one can really form a good view of how the US public feels about science.
People should ignore all the bogus studies that administer strange questions to M turk workers -- there are tons of those & they always report really weird, sensational findings.
2. This report, like the 2009 one, shows that Americans basically love science. By overwhelming margins, they report admiration for scientists and positive appraisals of what scientists do. This is consistent with what the NSF Science Indicators, which are released every year, show too.
3. Still, there is almost this weird reluctance in the Center's press release and commentary to accept or clearly articulate this conclusion!
It's common wisdom that public disputes over science stem from a "creeping anti-science" sensibility in American society.
Scholars who actually study public attitudes toward science, however, know that that view is unsupported by any convincing, valid data. Indeed, the Pew and NSF Indicator reports show that there is overwhelming trust-- across all demographic, political, and other types of cultural groups (religious & nonreligious, e.g.).
The 2009 Report helped to try to correct the "common wisdom" in this regard.
But the 2015 Report seems committed to avoiding any confrontation with this view. Instead, by employing a strategy of silence, inapt juxtaposition, and emphasis of irrelevant data, the Center commentary seems committed to consoling those who hold this fundamentally mistaken understanding of the sources of public conflict over science.
It's almost as if Pew feels disappointed to pop the balloon of self-reinforcing popular misunderstanding on this issue with the needle of its own data.
4. Consider the "gap" between scientists & public on evolution.
Yes, it's there.
It's also perfectly clear that this "gap" in public and scientific understandings has nothing to do with public respect for scientists.
The 2009 Pew Report made that clear, actually, reporting data showing that those who said they "disbelieved in" evolution as well as those who said they "did" both had highly positive views of science's contribution to society.
The Report and Alan Leshner's commentary for the 2009 Report both emphasized that there was no meaningful differences in that regard between people who said science sometimes conflicts w/ their religious views & those who said it doesn't.
Nothing at all has changed--nothing. But is there anything comparable in this yr's report? Nope!
Leshner himself did write a very thoughtful commentary in Science.
He's still championing respect for and respectful dialogue with diverse memers of the public: good for him; he's a real science-of-science-communication honey badger!
But even he seemed to think that getting his message across required indulging the "creeping anti-science" meme, warning that "the public's perceptions of scientific expertise and trustworthiness" risk being "compromised whenever information confronts people's personal, personal, or religious views"-- conclusions that actually seem completely contrary to the data presented in both 2009 and 2015.
5. Same w/ the "gap" on climate change.
In 2009, Pew wanted people to see, too, that public conflict over climate change did not originate in any disagreement about the value of science or trustworthiness of scientists. It emphasized that both climate-change "believing" & "disblieving" members of the public had the same positive views in this regard.
Not so in the 2015 report, where the "gap" on climate change is repeatedly used to qualify the finding that the public has high regard for science. (Interesting that only 87% of AAAS members indicated they "believe in" AGW; I'm sure they understand the evidence for AGW and even use the evidence "at work.")
What makes this all the more strange is that the 2015 Report recognizes that the public's disagreement over AGW mirrors a public disagreement over what scientific consensus is on this issue (a phenomenon that can be attributed to ideologically biased assessments of evidence on both issues).
In other words accepters and nonacepters alike believe "science is on their side" -- much the way that nations at war believe that God is....
For sure, the debate is alarming and contrary to enlightened democratic decisionmaking.
But if anyone thinks the source of the debate is lack of science comprehension on the part of the public or lack of public confidence and trust in science, they are themselves ignoring all the best evidence we have on these issues!
Pew's job is to help remedy this widespread form of science-of-science-communication illiteracy.
6. The data reported on public attitudes on GM foods is super disappointing.
GM food risks are in that category.
American consumers' knowledge and awareness of GM foods are low. More than half (54%) say they know very little or nothing at all about genetically modified foods, and one in four (25%) say they have never heard of them.
Before introducing the idea of GM foods, the survey participants were asked simply "What information would you like to see on food labels that is not already on there?" In response, most said that no additional information was needed on food labels. Only 7% of respondents raised GM food labeling on their own. . . .
Only about a quarter (26%) of Americans realize that current regulations do not require GM products to be labeled.
Americans don't fear GM foods; they eat them.
No meaningful inferences whatsoever can be drawn from the "gap" in attitudes between members of public & scientists on this issue.
Very un-Pew-like to play to common misunderstandings about this by treating the "gap" between public and scientists on GM as supporting any meaningful inferences about anything.
6. Also very out of character is Pew's calling attention to minute changes in the overwhelming levels of support for science reflected in particular items:
I'm sure they were just trying to throw a bone to all those who "just know" -- b/c it's so obvious-- that we are living in the "age of denial." But if the latter seize on these changes as meaningful, they'll only be making fools of themselves.
For perspective, here are comparable data, collected over time, from NSF Indicators (click on them for larger displays).
That anyone can see in these sort of data evidence for a "creeping anti-science" sensibility in the general US population or any segment of it is astonishing -- something that itself merits investigation by public opinion researchers, like the excellent ones who work for Pew!
But the bottom line is, the job of those researchers isn't to feed these sorts of persistent public misimpressions; it's to correct them!
* * *
How would I grade the Pew Study, then?
"A" for scholarly content."
"C -" for contribution to informed public understanding.
Overall: "B."

Shaving cream is not technically an art product, but it has to be the most requested material in our well-stocked studio.
Maia loves the stuff!
I can barely stand it myself — the smells (even unscented), the texture, the darn can—but she gets so much joy out of using the shaving cream every single time that I relent and buy it again and again. Not that I make a big deal out of it. And frankly, if a kid wanted to make art out of Wonder Bread and toothpicks, I'd buy them.
Here she's using the shaving cream for painting and sensory play.
This time when Maia asked to do some shaving cream painting, I set out powdered tempera paint as well. I showed her how to dip her brush in the shaving cream, then in the paint (so it sticks), then back to the shaving cream to tint it.
Of course she had to do it with her hands, too. To her, there is no other way to paint with shaving cream. It's all about the direct contact and sensory experience.
A little sprinkle of glitter for special effect at the end and she's done.

By the way, I should clarify—tempera paint and markers probably get used the most in our house. But shaving cream (which I keep up high) gets asked for the most and is used with the most enthusiasm.

I got a little burned out on mariniere shirts this summer, but have been wanting to try shibori-dyeing on a piece of silk jersey for a while, so this t-shirt happened.
The fly-front zippered shorts were the work of an afternoon. I had a yard of some poly-blend moire lying around and tested this new pattern draft. They're a bit snug, hence no back view.
Material Notes
T-shirt is fine silk jersey, dyed using the shibori method with jacquard acid dye.
Shorts are minty polyester satin moire.

Common Leniency Waiver Template and Waiver-less Information Sharing 2013 ICN Cartel Workshop Candice LEE, Competition Commission of Singapore Takujiro KONO, Japan Fair Trade Commission Dragomir ILIEV, European Commission 1
Waiver-less information sharing 2
OECD/ICN Survey on International Competition Enforcement Co-operation, 2013 3
Five broad categories –Public available information –Non-public agency information –Confidential information Leniency applicant information cannot generally be shared, and certainly not without a waiver Exceptions exist, (i) confidentiality waivers, (ii) national legislations (so-called information gateway), (iii) regional cooperation networks and (iv) bilateral agreements –Non-confidential, case-related information –Decisions after publication Type of Information (OECD/ICN Survey) 4
What is "confidential" or "non-confidential" –No commonly agreed definition at the international level –Different definitions within the same jurisdiction Merger control law Provisions on behavioural conduct Definition of Confidential Information (OECD/ICN Survey) 5
Exchange of (i)non-confidential info and (ii) internal agency info Frequently occurs –Case discussions: market definition, assessment of competitive effects potential remedies, basis of fine, etc. Practical limitations Limit the effectiveness –language, resource, different timing of investigations Non-confidential info exchange (OECD/ICN Survey) 6
Obligations pursuant to Free Trade Agreements –Provisions requiring signatories to cooperate in the development of any new competition measures and information exchange Mechanism in the Singapore Competition Act –CCS may enter into arrangements with foreign competition bodies to provide assistance and furnish to the other party information required by the other party for the purpose of performing its functions. Competition Commission of Singapore (CCS) - Formal Cooperation 7
–Initiative with some agencies to align leniency processes –Frequent dialogues with the ACCC and NZCC Sharing of knowledge and experience - in the area of enforcement, valuable leads have been generated through such information sharing initiatives –Informal enforcement network between ASEAN, ACCC and NZCC –ASEAN Experts Group in Competition –Regular participant at international conferences and workshops on cartel enforcement by OECD, ICN, BRICs CCS - Informal Cooperation 8
–Formal cooperation agreements with other jurisdictions subject to confidentiality obligations –Access to documents only at the PID stage with relevant redactions for confidential information. –Necessary waivers from leniency applicants must be obtained before CCS proceeds to discuss information with other authorities. CCS - Domestic Safeguards 9
–Benefits of information sharing in investigations Alerts CCS to existence of documents, which CCS can then request from parties –Limitations: Compliance with legal standards and confidentiality rules across jurisdictions Similarity of legal standards being a pre-condition for information sharing E.g. CCS experience – privilege against self-incrimination Challenges in Information Sharing: Waiver- less Sharing 10
Waiver-less exchange of information in the framework of formal cooperation - bilateral/regional a greements Waiver-less exchange of information in the framework of informal cooperation –Phase 1 - The investigation (from leniency application to dawn-raid) Does the legal framework allow information exchange at all? What is the scope of information exchange? –Phase 2 - Assessment of conduct and decision making Can results of the investigation and assessment of conduct discovered be discussed? Is the timing discussed? Is the amount of the fine discussed? –Phase 3 - Final decision and settlements (if available) Is the timing of decision coordinated Post decision – lessons learned? In the framework of the discussion, please also bear in mind and comment on some horizontal issu es such as: –Difficulties in exchange of confidential/non-confidential information –Definition of confidential/non-confidential information Discssussion 11
Leniency application stage (covert phase) –No waiver-less information sharing In practice, even internal agency information not provided to another agencies without a waiver Investigation state (overt phase) –Waiver-less information sharing possible to the extent not to discussing the party's confidential information Publicly available information Agency non-public information (open investigation, market definition, competitive effects, possible sanctions) JFTC Practice in Waiver-less Info Sharing 12
What is "Confidential" and "Non-confidential" –Professional secret and Business secret –Confidentiality obligation based on the AMA etc. Criminal sanctions for violation Provisions granting powers to exchange information are included in the AMA Bilateral agreement such as USA (1999) Some type of Confidential information (e.g. internal agency information) could be shared with foreign agency in theory –But in practice… Legal Framework in Japan - What is Confidential? - 13
Common leniency waiver template 14
Confidentiality waivers Often relied upon to address existing limitations to exchange of confidential information Due to length and complexity of the process based on formal framework (information gateway) More than 2/3 allowed to use waivers Some adopted a standard form of waivers. Most agencies, even having a standard form, often negotiate the terms for transmitting information and/or documents Reforms in the area of waivers are views as a way to foster more valuable co-operation through more effective information exchange Waivers: Key Area for more effective information exchange (OECD/ICN Survey) 15
Ensuring not limiting or restricting the ability of agencies to exchange information in a useful manner, the scope of and the conditions attached to waivers needs to standardize. Developing a model confidentiality waivers gained a fair consensus, ranking 4 th in terms of priority. ICN Model Waiver received the second highest cumulative store for "Usefulness" among ICN work products Priority for Model Waivers (OECD/ICN Survey) 16
–Reluctance, delay or refusal in providing waivers Going forward, CCS plans to seek waivers early on and also possibly include the granting of waivers as a requirement of leniency –Possible disincentive for leniency applicants – possibility of private action, exposure in other jurisdictions and criminal liability Waiver mechanism allows leniency applicants to be precise and nuanced as to jurisdiction CCS can share information with and extent of information shared –Impact of investigations overseas –Differences in waiver templates – length and scope; administrative costs for CCS and the party CCS experience 17
–Leniency application to make sure the party has applied to other agencies –If it has, JFTC requests a waiver At least the identity of the applicant needed for effective coordination In most cases, full-waivers (excepting exchanging documents provided by the applicant) are given –Waivers given orally No written agreement –Timing of Waivers; 1week+ Too late in some cases –Denial of full waivers JFTC experience 18
–Benefits of a common waiver template –Agencies' experiences voluntary in nature refusal of a waiver debates on wording - too restrictive? –Leniency applicant's concerns different place in different jurisdictions timing of granting a waiver potential ramifications of allowing sharing of information Discussion 19
–Applicant/application details + applicable confidentiality rules + scope of waiver –Type of information exchange –Level of protection of info in A2 received from A1 –Level of protection of info in A1 received from A2 –Level of protection towards 3rd parties Discussion – building blocks for waiver template 20
–Language observations –Shall a copy of the waiver be sent to A2? –Declaration in writing from A2? –Privileged information? –Duration? –(…) Discussion – wording - comments 21
