Wow, the spam filter finally let me in...nice
My game close alone, what's I can do for solve this?
How doi logout of my acc
Hi folks,
I send a friend of mine items via sealed envelope occasionally. However today I noticed that the envelope pack is no longer available to buy. I then noticed that I could buy 5 in the store at 3000 gold each, which I did. Now the enveloped no not show. Also they only showed up in my main castle. They are not available to buy in my alts. The prestige badges are also back in store, but again there seems to be a limit on what I can buy.
My question is, is this 5 envelope limit a daily limit, or is that it, and I cannot buy any more ever? Same with the prestige badges... If I bought my limit today... will I be able to buy more tomorrow? Thanks
Plz upload the parsian launguage
Myself and a group of friends want to start over in a new kingdom.
Where can I find the information when a new kingdom opens.
Yes its a daily limit.. you can buy again tomorrow
I want to know about 4 new buildings in the castle what for they and how to utilise

requisite tuesday night american idol post
Hidden for those who haven't watched it yet.
Ruben - Ok, better than the last two weeks
Josh - boooooooooooring
Clay - should be the winner
Clay totally showed his versatility tonight. His detractors claim he is just another Broadway wannabe, but I thought his rendition of Grease proved otherwise.
Though I can totally see him as Conrad Birdie in Bye, Bye Birdie.
Kimberley looks like Robin Givens. Unfortunately, she sang like Mike Tyson. I don't know why Simon loves her so much - her screeching tonight hurt my ears.
Josh does nothing for me. There's no oomph to his act.
Ruben has a wonderful voice. He's just not making me swoon like he did the first few shows.
I was really hoping someone would do I Started a Joke. If you can pull that song off, you can sing.
And that's my four cents.

Let there be no doubt … Kanye West has the most adorable chick in the game wearing his chain — as 'Hova once put it.
North West stepped out with Mom Monday in NYC but her outfit — complete with combat boots and a fat gold chain — was clearly an homage to Dad, who frequently rocks the exact same look … in adult sizes.
Whether she's copying Kanye or Kim Kardashian … North has learned to work the mini-me thing for all it's worth.

|Home | About | Donate/Volunteer | Contact | Jobs| Early Schizophrenia Screening Test
In desperation last night, because the music was so loud and unbearable, I took a PRN, Haldol 5mg. I knew I'd regret it at least a little today, because it would make me feel subjectively dull and that I'd be immediately unable to read. (Why is this? Well, first of all, it does something to my eyes so that they feel antsy and jump around and I can't keep them on any one word, but also it deadens my interest and motivation...or else it doesn't stimulate them as Zyprexa does, which, mind you, I stopped.) The reason I decided to take it was that I knew all last year I had no problem with hearing music and that was when I was taking Haldol regularly. Also, Haldol was the one thing we stopped just before the music started. I thought, I might as well give it a try, though 5mg probably wouldn't make much difference, seeing as my usual dose was 15mg.
Well, I woke this morning, expecting nothing to have changed...but right away I noticed something weird: no music! I figured, okay, I just got up, it'll start soon enough...But it didn't! Okay, a little comes through once in a while, but only a bit, and very low and ignorable and intermittent. I am amazed. It has to be the Haldol, what else could it be? Only yesterday I heard the music so loud and insistent that it played right through our reading and lecture yesterday at Hartford Hospital/Institute of Living! Why would it just stop spontaneously today? No, it's the Haldol, that's a reasonable conclusion, I think. I know it looks obvious. I just have to convince myself of that.
But... again, it was also the Haldol that today prevented me from reading, just as I feared it would. This was the first time I had trouble in several months, ever since getting off the Haldol finally in February or March. My eyes were going nutty and I couldn't get my mind to want to fix on anything...Until I impulsively took a teensy dose, 2.5 mg, of-- yes, you guessed it, ZYPREXA! An hour later, my eyes were fine and I could read again and felt motivated to. And still no music. Wow! Now is that a good solution or what? The only thing that might still upset the apple cart, but is not necessarily a problem, is: will the tiny dose of Zyprexa (cf normal dose of 10-15mg and my old dose of 35mg) cause weight gain? I'm willing to test it...carefully. Today at least I am not eating more than usual and don't feel overly drawn to the fridge after having taken just the one pill, so that is a good sign...I will try this again tomorrow and see what happens. If it works consistently, I'll ask Dr O about it, though I know I should have gone through her to begin with...But to he** with that. I had to do something immediately.
But this regimen means I'd be taking four different antipsychotics...at tiny doses but it seems kinda crazy...I really don't think the Abilify 5mg adds anything or ever has, so I'm gonna ask to be taken off that. The Geodon is my mainstay, so I have to stay on that. The other two are just kinda tweaking things, so I guess that's okay, though I am unhappy about the idea of taking so many drugs of the same class. It really is necessary, and they aren't redundant. Each does something different, as I've so clearly pointed out.
So ends the long saga of my mysterious music, I trust and believe. I hope it never again becomes such a problem. Thanks to the many who wrote e-mail or commentary encouraging me. I really appreciated it.

I'm glad the medicine is working for you, how wonderful! I guess medicine is an art and a science, and sometimes getting the dose right is a bit of an art form. I agree with what was said above, definitely keep your doctor informed. Sending wishes of health and joy to you, take care.

Dear Pam,
Once again our psychic synergy is in high gear. Hearing about your carefully considered attempt to silence the voices by strategic manipulation of your meds,is the exact process I have undergone innumerable times when trying to eliminate a problematic allergic symptom. It requires the skills of a detective, a memory of when one has felt well and when one has not, and above all, the ability to search our memories scrupulously in order to determine what is is that is DIFFERENT than our usual regime. This is the key to uncovering the culprit, in my case anyway. Sometimes I am successful, and sometimes I fail, but it's always worth the chance if the stakes are not too high. At times I wonder at my unqualified gaul at giving you medical advice, approving or disapproving of your methods etc. when I have absolutely NO credentials and NO right to do so. The only thing that saves me is your knowledge, upon which I depend, to accept or reject my halfbaked proposals, because you are the one who truly knows the score. I simply feel that if my blathering sentences are long enough, you'll scream with frustration and follow your own star(always a wise choice).
In any event, as long as you do not escalate what you have put into motion until you talk it out with Dr. O.,repeating that I have no grounds upon which to draw my conclusions, what you have done works for me. Two minds with but a single thought. Wellness of mind and body. Lovingly as always, Pesky

I am happy that you are doing better. It is good to know that the medicine is working better.

We had our biggest turnout in a few years for a SFBA VROC Ride. The total number of bikes was 11 and one auto.
We met at a 7-11 in Livermore, CA at Noon on Sunday, August 28, 2005. We rode Mines Road to the Junction, a tavern located where Mines Road from the north, Del Puerto Canyon Road from the east and San Antonio Road from the west come together.
The Junction tavern is the only place to get a soda or use a rest room for a radius of 25 miles. It is in the most remote spot of Santa Clara County which includes San Jose and the Silicon Valley. There is almost always more motorcycles in the parking lot than cars and pick ups.
    The organizer was
Tom "tc" Pansarasa - San Jose #1245
    on bikes were:
Darren "Steelman" Archer - Livermore #4709
Larry "Lars" Benanti - Hollister #2951
Karen "Cat" Benson - Fillmore #6724
Roy Coxen - Castro Valley #16477
Larry "Sky" Delfino - Stockton #14153
Rick "Racky" Eastman - Livermore #1870
Marc "Odd" Schifer - San Jose #862
Bill "BS" Snodgrass - San Jose #16804
Gary "Crazy Cowboy" Stenvers - Sausalito #2054
Howard "Nite Lite" Sublow - Petaluma #4234
    in the auto
Douglas "Tiny" Richards {driving} - Pinole #4685
Don "VSP" Inamasu {me} - Stockton #5569
    {Tiny was kind enough to drive me to this Ride while I am still trying to regain my balance control from an inner ear inflammation.}
Three photos at the Ride meeting place.

After saying our last respects to Wolfman,

Tiny and I ride Sweep for Sky and Cat down Del Puerto Canyon Road.
I am glad that tc has organized this tribute to Wolfman.

This is my first ever blog and I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing!!! Just wanted to say a quick hello to the crafting world (not that anybody knows I'm here yet) before I go to bed and try and get my head around how to actually get my blog up and running properly. I'll be back tomorrow and hopefully upload a picture or 2 of my more recent cards that I've made.

We're back from Core Bike Show 2014. We gave you all a quick preview on Monday, now we're back in the office here are some of our favourite bikes from the show including Storck, Lightweight, Ritte and Cipollini.
Storck Aernario range expands
No surprise that Storck had a couple of interesting bikes in display, including the new Aernario Basic. It uses the new Aernario aero frame Storck launched a couple of years ago, bungs a Shimano Ultegra Di2 groupset on it with a pair of Mavic wheels and Storck finishing kit, and costs £4,400. It's also the only gloss paint finish they currently offer, and in this blue we think it looks really good.
All the tube profiles have been designed and shaped to minimise drag. The down tube has a rounded frontal surface area with a teardrop tail, developed using CFD (computational fluid dynamics). It's a cross-section which they claim maintains a high level of stiffness and vibration damping while also being aero.
They stick with a round seatpost because Storck reckon the comfort benefits of a round versus aero post outweighs any aero advantage. Cables are routed internally and there is an integrated seat clamp. We can't wait to ride it.
If you're feeling a bit flush, then you could plump for this, the Aernario Signature Edition. It's been created specially to celebrate head honch Markus Storck's 50th birthday. That's quite a birthday present to yourself. Oh, did we mention it costs £15,000?
For that you get a very custom bike. The underlying Aernario frame isn't finished with the usual paint or protective lacquer, instead it has a raw finish. They reckon the raw finish is possible 'because of the ultra high manufacturing quality' they're offering. It obviously shows off the naked carbon fibre construction which is fascinating to look at up close.
There's no decals, instead you get Markus' signature and a serial number on the top tube. The frame has been built up with some special kit, as you'd expect for the price. As a result, Storkc reckon it weighs just 5.5kg (12.12 lb) , but we didn't have our scales to hand to verify that figure. It certainly doesn't take much strength to loft it in the air with one finger.
The Lightweight Meilenstein Obermayer wheels have bespoke aero hubs, the Storck Powerarm carbon cranks cost £1,200 and don't have any decals to match the frame, and a Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 electronic groupset is fitted and paired with THM Fibula Carbon brakes.
Also on display was the Aernario Disc. We first saw this at Eurobike last year, we even video interviewed Markus about this bike. It's a disc-specific version of the regular Aernario, but has a brand new fork designed to accommodate the disc brake. The rear stays have been completely redesigned too, with a modified carbon fibre layup to deal with the forces from the discs.
It's also one of the only new breed of disc road bikes with bolt-thru axles at both ends. Bolt-through axles are a large diameter hollow axle which thread into the enclosed dropout. They're commonplace on mountain bikes, and some people we speak to expect them to also become popular on road disc bikes within a couple of years. At the moment most manufacturers are sticking to conventional quick release axles. Time will tell which way the wind blows on that aspect of modern road bike design.
Lightweight Urgestalt and Autobahn Disc wheel
Lightweight showed their new Urgestalt frame at Core Bike Show, the first time we've seen it since it was launched at Eurobike, the German bike show last autumn. Lightweight has a mighty reputation for producing some of the lightest, and most expensive, carbon fibre wheels, and they have decided to branch out.
Their first shot at making a frame is as impressive as you might imagine, the frame weighs a claimed 790g and with the fork, headset and seatpost weighs a claimed 1,340g. This bike here, with Shimano Ultegra Di2, PRO finishing kit and Meilenstein tubular wheels, can't have weighed much more than 6kg, using nothing but our finely honed weighing arms.
The frame is constructed from a mix of high modulus fibre types, using unidirectional and multidirectional weave according to the part of the frame. The frame has a pressfit bottom bracket and tapered head tube, and a dedicated seatpost with the seatclamp hidden inside the top tube. All cables are routed internally and it's compatible with mechanical and electronic groupsets. There's space for 25mm tyres.
You probably want to know the price don't you? Are you ready? It's £3,950 for the frameset. Yup, it's not cheap, but it was never going to be was it.
And here is how here it arives in a box. I tried my best to smuggle it out of the building, to no avail. I've ridden the bike, albeit very briefly, at the Eurobike Demo Day last year, and I was stunned at the startling acceleration and direct handling. We're working on getting a test bike in for review so we can give you a thorough and indepth review.
We also had a look at Lightweight's Autobahn Disc wheel, which if you were paying any attention you might have spotted a certain Sir Bradley Wiggins racing in the summer of 2012.
The parent company of Lightweight also produces carbon fibre components for the military and space industries, and this gives them access to carbon that other bike companies don't have.
The carbon 'spokes' you can easily discern on this disc is made from a carbon fibre that Lightweight tells us costs €1,800 a kilogram. The don't use much of it, the wheel weighs a claimed 740g, but they reckon they've made a 600g version for a certain Spanish cyclist.
Ritte Vlaanderen
We gave you a little glimpse at Ritte, a US bike brand heavily inspired by Belgian cycling culture, in our preview article. They're now being distributed in the UK by SIlverfish, and a test bike is winging its way to us very soon.
They showed two frames, the Bosberg and this, the racier Vlaanderen. It's made from high-modulus carbon fibre with a BB30 bottom bracket and integrated seatmast. Everything about is is oversized, and the geometry has been tailored for comfort over long rides with a slightly longer wheelbase, for extra stability.
It also looks really cool. The Flemish Lion has been restyled as a headbadge and this frame is painted using the Belgian national cycling kit colours. All cables are routed internally, it's Di2-compatible and has a tapered 1-1/8" to 1 - 1/4" head tube. We like the fact it takes 25mm tyres, so you can fit some nicer rubber for riding the Belgian pavé.
Ritte are heavily inspired by Belgian cycling culture; the classics, cobbles, frites and beer. The name comes from Henri "Ritte" Van Lerberghe who showed up to the 1919 Flanders startline without a bike, borrowed one from a local, and attacked the peloton instantly. Such was his lead, that he had time to stop in a pub for a drink. One turned into four, and he still had the time and energy to get back on his bike and win the race. It's that sort of spirit of racing and riding that inspires Ritte.
Cipollini didn't have anything new, unless you count this new fluoro yellow edition of the Bond as new. Fluoro has become quite popular in cycling over the past years, more so in clothing but we've seen a few bikes adding fluoro details, but Cipollini have possibly overdone it we reckon. Certainly a head-turner. Is this the tipping point for the fluoro trend?
More from Core Bike Show soon...
David has worked on the road.cc tech team since July 2012. Previously he was editor of Bikemagic.com and before that staff writer at RCUK. He's a seasoned cyclist of all disciplines, from road to mountain biking, touring to cyclo-cross, he only wishes he had time to ride them all. He's mildly competitive, though he'll never admit it, and is a frequent road racer but is too lazy to do really well. He currently resides in the Cotswolds.

John Hurrell – 5 April, 2017
Obviously you can enjoy these works without taking too obsessive an interest in how they were made. You might not be disposed towards puzzle solving and the mysteries of threading technique (or its coloration), but you can relish instead decorative rhythms discoverable on enigmatic ornamental objects projecting out from these walls.
Richad Bryant
The Wrenching Scale
22 March -15 April 2017
Richard Bryant's six, very unusual, paintings that we see presented on the walls of the Ivan Anthony gallery, are made not with the expected painted canvas stretched taut on stretchers, but with woven and jammed fragments of stained fabric mingled with softly coloured string, thread and twine. This has been repeatedly and intricately stitched around and across frames to look cumulatively like flaxen chair seats, worn down doormats, squares of dug-up turf, or (perhaps) giant kataifi Greek pastries. Overall, the compressed forms look vaguely baked, like decorated (but squashed) loaves of bread or freakishly enlarged crunchy biscuits.
The process of making these coarse, fibrous 'textile' objects seems complex, for the colour application varies between the staining of the outer spongy surface, dry brushing the taut lines, the colouring of the thread in isolation before sewing, or stitching in coloured cotton straight off the reel.
These Weetbix-like paintings are like tightened bundles or aggregate parcels wrapped in string, their enclosing web or network of skeins accentuated with colour. Some are daubed with dots or mottled stains, and others have a sense of washed on stains later being removed. The works invite you to ponder over the sequencing of their construction, seeking clues over pattern formation and the incorporation of fragments of fabric.
In a sense they might be seen as a kind of metaphor for the process of painting's mental and physical construction, disparate elements from various cultural sources pulled together and now 'unnaturally' juxtaposed in a new context. You can 'sit' in them like Matisse's armchairs for tired businessmen, letting your mind and eyes drift, and relaxing, or you can ravenously optically devour the individual linear or textural ingredients, speculating on the reasons for their inclusion, and consuming their formal elements rapidly.
These frameless grid paintings (for grid paintings are what they are, but organic and irregular in their linear crisscrossing, and not a hard edged geometric form to be seen anywhere) also change according to your distance from them. Their unpredictably bulbous (and lumpy) edges tend to flatten out when you stand back, so that the asymmetric undulating borders tighten. Also within each centre, paler linear configurations dissolve and darker configurations become more assertive. The marks change in accentuation and dominance.
If you carefully compare the paintings you will notice there are three distinct types: (1) wrap-around frames with stretched over webs (Beak and Thaw) with a definite compositional centre distinct from the framing border; (2) mottled rhythmic patches in a patterned holistic field (Vessel and Collar); and (3) tonally accentuated webs of linked-up lines (Flock and Comb) with stalks, stems and petioles.
With the saturated colours and textures that are akin to straw or shredded paper, you get associations of fabric patterns being mingled with the cereal tactilities of baking, while also visually hinting at fishermen's nets laden with entangled seaweed and polluting paper or plastic. They are startlingly rich in associations.
Obviously you can enjoy these works without taking too obsessive an interest in how they were made. You might not be disposed towards puzzle solving and the mysteries of threading technique (or its coloration), but you can relish instead decorative rhythms discoverable on enigmatic ornamental objects projecting out from these walls.

With 2016 being an election year, we thought this would be a great opportunity for our USA facility employees to learn more about all the Presidents of the past. Our 2016 Presidential Educational Series is completely voluntary, with the goal in mind to expand our knowledge of where this country came from and who are the leaders that helped shape the country we live in today. We feel that it is important that everybody realizes how lucky we are to live in a country where you have the ability to vote and have your voice heard. We will be highlighting 4-5 Presidents each month. There will be a photo and a brief bio explaining their most important accomplishments. At the end of the year we will have a quiz on all 44 Presidents. The quiz, like the program, is completely voluntary and several prizes will be given out to those that score well. At Airtech we believe that knowledge is power, and this is one more way to contribute to the overall growth of our employees.
For more information, please visit our "Presidential Education Series" webpage.

Don't put off your flu vaccination
Health chiefs in Suffolk are reminding people to get a flu vaccination to ward off the worst effects of a potentially debilitating illness.
Parents of children aged 2 to 3 are being encouraged to take their child to have a simple nasal spray vaccination at their GP surgery, while carers are also advised not to put off their free flu jab.
With higher than usual numbers of people contracting flu in the Southern Hemisphere during their winter season earlier this year, it is more important than ever not to delay getting the vaccination.
Flu is a highly infectious disease and can lead to serious complications, especially among some of the most vulnerable groups. Public Health England's Chief Medical Officer has warned flu and the complications associated with it cause, on average, 8,000 deaths a year.
People with long term health conditions such as diabetes, heart, kidney or liver disease are eligible for a free vaccination, as are pregnant women and all those over 65.
Children from reception class to year four will receive their nasal spray vaccination at school as part of the national vaccination programme and those aged two and three years old can have the spray vaccination from their GP.
Councillor Tony Goldson, Suffolk County Council's cabinet member for health and chairman of the Suffolk Health and Wellbeing Board, said:
"It's all too easy to put off the vaccination due to other commitments, or thinking it won't work. However, flu is a nasty illness that can leave its sufferers out of action for some time, and can even cause death. The vaccination offers effective protection against this illness.
"We're calling on people not to put it off, and to visit their GP or local pharmacy as soon as possible. In many cases it's free for those who are eligible, or for a small fee for those who don't fall into these categories."
Flu can be especially unpleasant for young children, who in turn can spread it to the rest of the family, which is why parents of 2 to 3 year olds are encouraged to see their GP for the painless nasal spray to ensure their children are protected.
The county's healthy lifestyle providers, OneLife Suffolk, will be working closely with many of Suffolk's GP practices, pharmacies and children's centres to raise awareness of the importance of getting the vaccination.
Dr Mark Shenton, a GP in Stowmarket and chairman of NHS Ipswich and East Suffolk Clinical Commissioning Group, said:
"This year Australia experienced its worst ever flu outbreak on record. The global circulation of the virus means that the seriousness of this outbreak could be reflected in the UK over the winter months. In a country with around one-third of the population of the UK, Australia has already experienced almost 400 flu related deaths.
"It is more important than ever for vulnerable people to contact their GP practice and arrange to have a flu vaccination. By doing so you could avoid the deterioration of a long-term health condition, an unnecessary stay in hospital or even death. The adult vaccination is quick and simple to receive. Eligible young children should get protected too, in order to prevent the spread of flu to other "at-risk" family members.
"Getting a flu vaccination will help protect your health and help an already overstretched NHS to cope over the busy winter months."
People should contact their GP, pharmacist or midwife to the get the flu jab.

Taylor-made wines from one of one of the industry's first families
Three generations of Taylors ensure that the wines produced from their magnificent Clare Valley vineyards are of the highest standard.
Bill Taylor and his two sons, Bill and John, were already firmly entrenched in the wine industry as merchants when their passion to create their own world-class Cabernets was realized with the purchase of 178 hectares of Terra Rossa soil on the Wakefield River in the Clare Valley in 1969.
The first commercial vintage was in 1973, and two years later their Cabernet Sauvignon won a gold medal in every capital city wine show. The Taylors name became synonymous with quality, and an expansion in 1983 saw them purchase a further 113 hectares. Since then, growth has been rapid, including the addition of 32 hectares in 1989, 161 hectares in 1994 and, most significantly, the 250-odd hectares of the St Andrews vineyard.
Innovation always lays a fertile path for the future. In 2000, all the Riesling produced was sealed under Stelvin screw caps and in 2004 all wines were sealed this way. In 2009, Taylors produced the first 100 per cent carbon neutral wine under its Eighty Acres label.
Seven labels exist, each displaying different philosophies of production. The Promised Land range is meant to be fruit-dominated and ready to drink. Eighty Acres is named after the original farmed block and is 100 per cent carbon neutral. It has lively fruit with some elegant structure. The Taylors Estate range gets more serious expressions of terroir and quality fruit.
The Jarraman range purposively blends the best fruit of two regions. This gives a chance for the single varietal fruit characteristics to shine. The flagship label, only made in certain vintages, is the St Andrews range. These are the most elegant structured wines that give plenty of value for the dollar. The Visionary is named after Bill Taylor, and is an extremely rare Cabernet only produced in exceptional years.
The most fascinating range includes the TWP- Taylors Winemaking Project wines. This range is the result of tinkering with and testing small parcels of less common varieties. Current releases include a Grenache, a Shiraz Mataro and a Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec and Cabernet Franc.
The Taylors are considered one of Australia's first families of wine (there are altogether 13 families that share this honour), and they believe in the expression of terroir, quality and commitment to the wine industry. Exports have been successful, with the notable change in name to Wakefield Wines, because the name 'Taylors' is linked to a Portuguese wine company in international markets.
Wines Tasted
Taylors Estate Clare Valley Riesling 2013 – a light yellow colour, with sweet honeysuckle and lime florals on the nose. It has a medium weight anterior palate, with a moderate acid backbone. This is a great value example of Clare Valley Riesling and was enjoyed with some fresh Mooloolaba prawns and lime aioli. Cellar three to five years.
Taylors St Andrews Clare Valley Chardonnay 2012 pale yellow colour, with a tinge of green. The nose is complex, with white peach, funky lees and yeast aromas. The palate is lush and broad in the anterior palate with nice acidity. Made in the new mould with hints of malolactic fermentation, but restrained fruit and oak balanced beautifully. Enjoyed with King Island Triple Cream Brie. Cellar five to seven years.
Taylors WMP GSM Clare Valley Grenache Shiraz Mataro 2010 – a deep garnet colour, with a nose of red currants, rich candied fruits , tobacco leaf and herbal notes. There is generous fruit on the anterior palate with a mild tannin structure. Overall, a luscious wine that opened up over two hours. Enjoyed with some prosciutto and Jamon ham. Cellar six to seven years.
Taylors St Andrews Clare Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2009 – a deep red-brown brick colour, with a nose of rich, deep cassis and mocha notes, with a background of herbs. The palate is enriched with a full velvety flow of rich fruit flavours. There is very little mid-palate collapse, and the balanced tannins ensure lip-smacking satisfaction. The best value high end Cabernet that I know of. Enjoy with my old favorite – grilled "anything bleeding". Cellar for eight to 10 years.

The decade of greed, hostile takeovers, rising share prices and junk bonds. Reagan raises the stakes in the cold war, ending in the fall of the Berlin Wall, heralding German re-unification and the demise of the Soviet Union.
Turning against minimalism, the eighties see a return to more expressive forms of art. The German "Neuen Wilden" (roughly translatable as "The New Wild Ones") search for emotional intensity in their paintings, rejecting art history and intellectual conceptualism, clearly wanting to provoke the art establishment.
Gerhard Richter is a main exponent of the period. He was seen as a "conceptual painter" - or a painter whose paintings are statements about ideas for painting. Art experts now consider him a master of the "deconstruction" of the formal conventions of painting.
In the US, Keith Haring combines Abstract Expressionism and Pop Art with Graffiti while Jean-Michel Basquiat expresses life in New York ghettos using a naive, imaginative language. Jeff Koons exaggerates Warhol's Pop Art tradition and flirts with kitsch.
Photography becomes increasingly popular, with Cindy Sherman taking pictures of herself in various guises and different persona. Jeff Wall took photographs of what appear to be momentary images but were in truth well staged artificial arrangements.

Over June and August this year we asked 478 construction professionals how they gather information to inform their product and design decisions. We asked them questions about their journal readership, blog readership, social media activity, use of product directories and CPD requirements. This information is presented in full in our research The Construction Media Index, a series of reports that aim to help you develop effective communication strategies with key construction decision makers. This blog provides a snapshot of the findings.
Construction Journal readership
The Construction Media Index research shows that key decision makers in construction are more likely to read online publications than hardcopy magazines & journals. It demonstrates that respondents use hardcopy journals to browse information and online journals as reference. In general all age groups have similar reading habits, but there are variations across the professions. The popularity of titles also varies across professions but in general Building is the more popular publication, with the strong hardcopy and online readership. Almost a third of construction decision makers expect their online readership to increase in the next 12 months.
How the Construction Industry uses Social networks
Just over a half of construction decision makers use social networks for work. In general Twitter and LinkedIn are the most popular networks. The Construction Media Index reveals that most construction industry decision makers use more than one social network for work and the social media channels used vary with profession.
Those aged 36 – 55 are more active on social media for work than other age groups. The most popular device to access social networks is the smart phone, with the most popular time of day being between 12.00 and 2.00pm. Almost half of respondents who use social networks for work have increased their usage in the past 12 months. While more than a third anticipate increasing their usage in the next 12 months.
Delivering Construction CPD
A third of decision makers participate in CPD, although it is much higher for architects and engineers. Although Online CPD is being widely used the majority of respondents prefer to have CPD delivered in their office.
Communicating with Construction Industry Decision Makers – Conclusion
Our research shows product manufacturers need to have a strategic presence online to get in front of construction decision makers. This online presence though needs to be complemented by real person support.
The Construction Media Index, now in its fourth edition, is the only impartial research report for the construction industry on traditional and digital communication channels. It reveals how Architects, Engineers, Housebuilders, Merchants and Contractors gather information to inform their product and design decisions. The 2015 Construction Media Index consists of:
- Architect Communication Channels – £350 + VAT
- Contractor Communication Channels – £300 + VAT
- Engineer Communication Channels – £300 + VAT
- Housebuilder Communication Channels – £250 + VAT
- Merchant Communication Channels – £250 + VAT

I decided to take a break from Lord of the Rings and take a bit of inspiration from Gallery Nucleus to conjure up my latest piece. Nothing like a Dementor's kiss to get your gears revved up at night. hahah
I always loved how creepy these guys were in both, the movie & book, so it was super fun to make them in my own illustration. I was going to show Sirius Black as well, but it definitely took away from the connection between Harry and the Dementor.

Candace and Corey got married!!!
Three cheers!
It was a beautiful day.
Candace looked beautiful and Corey looked very handsome.
They were both very, very happy.
I loved watching her dad walk her down the isle.
They had a lovely little ceremony under a large tree filled with blowing pink ribbons
with their closest family and friends.
Later that day they had a fun reception that was cupcake sweet.
All of the planning and handwork paid off, everything was perfect pink.
The happy couple then escaped to a mexican cruise honeymoon.
So excited for my niece to be married.
I also go to design her wedding announcement.
She knew exactly what she wanted.
We spiced up her idea with some damask and bright pink.
She loves pink, and loves bright pink even better.
Love ya Candace.
Hope you are enjoying married life.

Let me know if you need a wedding announcement designed. :)

On day one I saw the Best International Shorts; the winner of this category was Buzkashi Boys, a glimpse into the life of 2 young boys growing up in a poor area of Afghanistan. Whilst the narrative was compelling and there were some beautiful contrasts of the harsh utilitarian urban landscape against the sunlit mountains, in my opinion this was not deserving of the title Winner.
Bolero was the first short screened. Slow at first, though beautifully shot and delightfully brought to life by Ravel's much loved Bolero, this short soon got and kept my attention. Two young children spend their days playing in dens made of bedsheets and cleaning the remnants of torture in an unexplained but troubling scenerio, until one day they take back control with a straightforward and childish simplicity that is shocking and satisfying. This would have been my runner up.
My winner of the Best International shorts would have been The Old Woman; a superb piece set in what seems to be pre-war Germany. The attractive writer Danlil intends to write a subversive novel about a miracle worker - much against the wishes of his cautious and frightened friend. Danlil claims to be interested only in nonsense, but his intentions run deeper than poetic absurdities. This short is stylish and full of the unexpected, but it is more than merely a charming narrative - it is hopeful and inspiring. Please note when watching the trailer that I'm pretty sure it wasn't in German when I watched it - or that there were at least subtitles. Still, you'll get a feel for it . . . Die Alte Frau.
On the opening day of the festival I also watched the World Premier of The Lottery of Birth - a documentary that I wholly recommend. It questions the values that society promotes - and more importantly the reasons that such beliefs are advocated and by whom. The premise itself is not ground-breaking; intelligent people always have and will think for themselves. However the film is a call for action - it is a testimony as to why apathy and passivity is unacceptable, why even everyday decisions should be made using sound reasoning - fact, not fear. With a cast that includes Steven Pinker, physicist Vandana Shiva, journalist George Monbiot and the late Howard Zinn, this documentary will remind you that good people do exist, that we can take control of our lives, and that if individuals are willing to stand up for what they believe then we really can change the world!
The next film I watched was Banaz - A Love Story, a harrowing account of the true story of the murder of Banaz Mahmod, by her family in the name of 'honour'. The film documents how Banaz went to the police 5 times to ask for help, but that it took 3 months for her notes to even be written up. She was let down by the police, let down by her family and let down by the Kurdish community in London, who actively hindered police enquiries. There are on average 12 honour killings in Britain a year, and it is a field that is fairly misunderstood by the public and the police. An interview from Banaz's sister, in hiding having run away from the family ages 15, gives us a deeper insight and illustrates the need for honour crimes to be faced and fought.
Sado Tempest is a film I was nervous about seeing - described as a Japanese futuristic take on Shakespeare's The Tempest, it could easily have been terrible. I love Shakespeare, and The Tempest is one of my favourites. I did once see a hideous interpretation of Midsummer Night's Dream, which involved aliens and Titania wrapped in tinfoil - so horrendous that I had to leave half way through - and so I was seriously dubious about Sado Tempest. However, after a pretty tuneless screaming introduction from the heroes and Japanese rock gods, this film was a beautiful retelling of the classic story, set on a mysterious island that hasn't seen Spring for 15 years. The exiled rock singer discovers Miranda in the form of a disturbed and lost young woman, and through her he discovers a more subtle and poetic way of playing. Hopeful and imaginative, this is the film of the festival that surprised me the most.
Q&A with director, John Williams:
One film I was determined to see was Death, as my friend is the niece of Martin Gooch, the director, and frankly I was intrigued. Now a film described as a "mysterious comedy sci-fi drama" and also "part family drama, part farce, part steam punk and part ghost story" would normally leave me a little sceptical as it seems rather a tall order. However I went in with an open mind and was very pleasantly surprised almost immediately. Firstly the animation that introduced the film had that gothic, fairy tale quality that I just love, and next there was big old house as a central character. The film continued in this vein and proved itself to be funny, warm and stylish, with characters that I genuinely cared about - the applause at the end was spontaneous.
And finally the last collection that thoroughly deserves a mention is The Survivalists shorts. First up was Karama Has No Walls, which depicts events as they unfolded at the student protest in Yemen 2011, calling for the then president, Ali Abdullah Saleh to stand down. What began as a peaceful sit in from male and female students, with dancing and music, slowly gathered ominous momentum and took a tragic turn. A total of 53 protestors were shot dead by snipers loyal to the president, and much of this was captured on camera. With bravery verging on insanity the camera men and their colleagues stand out in the open, making peace signs with their fingers in defiance of the chaos and bloodshed. The camera is targeted at one point and I could only watch in amazement at the numbers of young men willing to be gunned down. The camera then followed some of the victims to the local hospital, where people were carried hurriedly by a group of their friends, rudely bandaged and then lined up with the rest on the floor to await treatment or death.
Carbon For Water was the next short screened, which detailed the issues of deforestation at a family level, i.e. the daily gathering of fire wood, and the corresponding problem of desertification. The short focused on Western Kenya and discussed the impact on both the environment and the girls and women who suffer as a result of their duties in gathering the firewood: Girls as young as 6 are expected to spend the day alone in the forest where they are exposed to rape, kidnap and attack from wild animals. However a bigger social implication is that these girls are not being educated because of these duties. It is well documented that societies where women are educated benefit as a whole, and so the implementation of the Life Straw which is a filtering system to provide safe drinking water without the need for boiling (and hence gathering firewood) will have a direct positive influence.
The film itself left a few unanswered questions for me - like who was paying for these filters, and who had to pay for them to be replaced when they ran out. However a spot of Googling showed me that isn't a business out to exploit, but in fact the European company, Vestergaard Frandsen works using carbon financing. This means that companies in developed countries can receive 'carbon credits' for helping reduce the output of greenhouse gas in developing countries. Whilst Vestergaard Frandsen have invested $25 million in the project, they will be able to recoup this input in the form of credit. This seems to be an excellent venture and a decent film - have a look to see some good people doing good things.
Emptys documents people in the state of Oregon who have been making ends meet by collecting empty bottles and cans, and then getting back the deposit. For some of the recyclers, this is their only source of income, and the short provides a real insight into what happens to our rubbish. This is a well shot, touching and straightforward approach to the way in which we waste so many resources available to us.
My very favourite of The Survivalists shorts is one that is entirely different from those previously discussed, and is called When The Song Dies. Through the memories and songs from a range of old people, this documentary addresses the dying Celtic cultures across Scotland. Although I spent the entire short believing it was Ireland (lamentable seeing as I've studied linguistics), the sentiment is the same. Well-paced and poetic, the film evokes a feeling of something falling from our grasp, of being within reach but only just. There is a quiet sense of regret throughout, but just as with some of the forgotten songs and melodies, there is also a pervading hope and confidence. Some parts of the film were so beautifully shot and poignant that I was left in tears. Always have to embarrass myself.
Watch the trailor.

The "Fort Knox of Food." From the International Herald Tribune.
The recent publicity about the opening of the "Global Seed Vault" in Longyearbyen, Norway, has prompted some questions about whether or not bananas are included. The vault is 500 meters deep, buried under a snow-capped mountain, and is filled with over a hundred million (!!!) different kinds seeds, all as a hedge against the predicted destruction to plant life global warming may be about to wreak. The project was described as a "backup hard drive" for agriculture by the New York Times (story). But bananas aren't included. Why?
Simple: bananas don't have seeds. And banana plantlets - the primary means of storing genetic material for the fruit - are an impossible fit for the Norwegian project, which can only store the so-called "orthodox" seeds - the kind that can be preserved dry. Storing bananas, as a recent press release from Bioversity International noted, need "human intervention. That's always been the story with bananas. We brought them from the forest thousands of years ago, and we've carried them around the world. They aren't just a product of human enterprise - they're a companion to humanity.
Liquid nitrogen keeps the banana materials at minus 320 degrees fahrenheit (-196 degrees c.)
So, is there a banana bank account out there, working as a hedge against disaster? Yes - it is called the "Black Box" collection, stored at the French Research Institute for Development, in Montpellier, France. The tissue samples there duplicate of those stored at the International Transit Center at the Catholic University of Leuven, in Belgium; that institution is one of the leading center for banana genetic research. "It's a mirror of the need for crop diversity itself," Emile Frison, Bioversity's Director General, said. "Just as humanity needs different varieties of crops, so different crops need different kinds of long-term storage."
That's good news for bananas, which face many present-day external attackers - diseases and pests especially virulent to the fruit, which suffers from declining genetic diversity - that are as destructive as the doomsday scenarios contemplated by the ice mountain project.
(This story is based on a press release from Bioversity. Read it in its entirety here - it includes the story of how the Black Box works, and why bananas require unique storage techniques.)

Even mildly premature infants (gestational ages of 33 weeks through 36 weeks) have an increased risk of medically attended respiratory syncytial virus infection, which is the leading cause of lower respiratory tract infection in infants and young children and can lead to pneumonia in babies, according to a Kaiser Permanente Division of Research study. The RSV infection risk is higher among infants exposed to supplemental oxygen or assisted ventilation during the neonatal period, said the researchers, explaining that the need for oxygen is sometimes unavoidable for babies who need intensive care.
The results of the study are being presented at the Pediatric Academic Societies Annual Meeting to be held in Baltimore on Tuesday, May 5.
"Although extreme prematurity is a known risk factor for severe RSV infection, this study helped us to learn more about risk factors for RSV infection among mildly premature infants. We detected an increased risk even in babies born at 37 weeks," said the study's lead investigator Gabriel J. Escobar, MD, a hospital-based pediatrician and research scientist with the Kaiser Permanente Division of Research in Oakland, Calif. "Further research is needed to determine whether strategies to prevent or mitigate RSV infections are indicated in late preterm infants."
The study included 108,794 babies at least 33 weeks gestation discharged from six Kaiser Permanente hospitals between January 1996 and December 2002. Compared to babies 38-40 weeks, babies born at 37 weeks had a 37 percent increased odds of RSV infection, while babies born at 34-36 weeks had a 70 percent increased odds. In contrast, babies born at 41 or more weeks had 14 percent decreased odds. Even after controlling for prematurity, babies who received supplemental oxygen during the birth hospitalization had a 50 to 120 percent increased odds of medically attended RSV infection in the first year of life.
Researchers used a retrospective cohort study design using logistic regression and Cox proportional hazards modeling to control for varying follow-up lengths.
Additional researchers on the study include: Patricia Kipnis, Ph.D., Arona Ragins, MA, Sherian Xu Li, MS, and Laura Prager, MD, Pharm D, all with Kaiser Permanente; and Jennifer Graff with Medimmune.

text: This morning I read through 'The authenticity paradox' by Harvard Business and it really reaffirmed the notion that in order to grow as a leader, it's really important to stretch your limits by new things you're uncomfortable. The challenge I set myself last night to seek feedback from my teammates. It's so scary that I don't want to do it but I'm going to try my best and see what happens. Later in the day, I volunteer for the Art Science week. I guided high school around UTS, which sure was quite tough because the boys were very rowdy. There was moment today that was thought-provoking that happened today. One of the girls asked me what it was like to be in university, I was almost stumped in that moment because I didn't know what to say. I looked at the girl and said, "It can be tough, stressful, there are moments where you wonder if this is worth it but there's moments where you grow as a person because you're challenged in so many different ways and honestly, you get to meet some really great people along the way". I could hear the teacher behind laugh at my answer because of the honesty and the group of kids was almost shocked by my answer. I was also quite surprised but I was told after they really appreciated it. This was a turning point for me because being the natural salesperson I am, I knew the rehearsed answer but for some reason, I couldn't say it. I guess this relates to Mike Robbins TED Talk about being expressing a person's true feelings in a moment. I really hope whoever marks this report doesn't get to this part of what I said about UTS.

Sazzie (formerly known as The Good Natured and Lovestarrs) is an English synthpop solo act, consisting of Sarah McIntosh (born January 1991[1] in Highclere, Hampshire)[2] on vocals and keyboards, and formerly her brother Hamish McIntosh on bass and George Hinton (with whom Sarah became acquainted at university)[3] on drums.

2008–2011: Career beginnings, Warriors and Your Body Is A Machine[edit]
Sarah began playing the violin as a child, but felt it was not the right instrument for her, so she turned towards playing the drums.[4][5] She also sang in a choir when she was a child.[6] At the age of 14 she salvaged an old Yamaha keyboard while spring cleaning her grandmother's house.[4][5] She taught herself to play the keys and at age 15 began to write her first own songs and founded a band with her brother Hamish.[7] Later she went to university to study music, but found that both studying and pursuing her musical career was unmanageable. She therefore decided to drop out from university and concentrate on her own music.[8]
After attracting thousands of listeners with their first song, "Our Very Last", The Good Natured self-released their debut EP Warriors on 7 July 2008.[9][10] The EP received a lot of press coverage, especially for the lyrics. Their second EP Your Body Is a Machine was released independently as well on 13 September 2009.[6][11]
2011–2012: Parlophone, Skeleton and 5-HT[edit]
In March 2011, The Good Natured signed a deal with Regal Recordings and Parlophone, under which they released their EP Skeleton on 20 June 2011.[12][13] The lead track, Skeleton peaked at No. 68 on the German singles top 100.[14] They also signed to Astralwerks in the United States, where they made their debut with the release of Skeleton on 11 October 2011.[15] On 9 December 2012, The Good Natured released their debut single, 5-HT with an accompanying music video.[16] The song failed to make an impact on any major charts. Also in 2012, The Good Natured and Vince Clarke released the song Ghost Train as a free download.[17]
On 28 March 2013, the band announced that their debut album would be titled Prism.[18] However, on 25 July 2013, the group announced via their Facebook account that they had been dropped from their label a few months earlier, and had spent the ensuing time in an unsuccessful effort to get the masters back so that they could self-release the album. They also stated that the band's final show would be at the Temple of Boom stage at the Secret Garden Party that same month.[19][20]
2014–2017: Lovestarrs, Get Your Sexy On, Supernova, new EPs, and a debut album[edit]
On 4 December 2013, they announced on their Facebook page that they will return in 2014 "in a new shape and form".[21] In January 2014, they announced via their Facebook page that they had changed their name to Lovestarrs.
On 31 March 2014, Lovestarrs released their debut single, "Get Your Sexy On".[22] The single received very positive reviews, especially from The Guardian [23] who described the song as "excellent". In September 2014 under their new name, Lovestarrs self-released their first EP, Supernova. In support of this, they played shows in England and Sweden.[24]
On 12 October 2015, Lovestarrs began a Kickstarter campaign to fund production costs of two upcoming EPs and an album, Andromeda, Cassiopeia, and Planet Lovestarr, respectively, all set for release in 2016. Sarah stated that this was being done so as to retain ownership of their music and enable them to license and release it through their new label DEFDISCO to avoid the issues that they had with Parlophone/EMI. The campaign was successful with 107% of their goal reached.[25]
2017-Present: Sazzie[edit]
On July 3, 2017, Sarah posted on Facebook announcing a rebranding of Lovestarrs, becoming a solo act.[26] On July 22, 2017, Sarah announced her new name to be "Sazzie".[26] She released her first song as Sazzie on July 31, 2017 to Youtube; a cover of Kesha's song "Praying".[27]
The Good Natured was compared to La Roux,[28][29] Ladytron,[2][4] Lily Allen[2][10] and Kate Nash.[2][28] Sarah herself described The Good Natured as "dark electronic pop"[6] as well as "electronic pop with heart",[5] citing bands such as Tears for Fears, Japan, Siouxsie and the Banshees and Vince Clarke (from Depeche Mode, Yazoo & Erasure) as influences.[29]
Sarah stated that she is influenced by Katy Perry, Maroon 5 and Gwen Stefani when it comes to Lovestarrs.[30]

Staff at the Mulready Dental Practice in Midhurst baked cakes to raise money for the Make a Wish Foundation.
Practice manager Danielle Carver, dentist Carol Mulready, head nurse Tina Carter-Glue, chiropractor Lynne Johnson and trainee dental nurse Louise Kurzen all supported the Bake a Wish event.
Danielle said: "I am delighted to say we managed to raise £100 for Make a Wish Foundation, which we have sent on to them.
"All proceeds will go towards making a serioulsy ill child's wish come true. The fantastic foundation grants magical wishes to children and young people fighting life-threatening conditions."
The event at the North Street practice was part of Denplan's Valentine's Day Bake-A-Wish campaign and each member of staff baked a cake or other treats for all members of the public to buy.
