I had my first post surgery scan on 1/16 but didn't see the doc until today. I have four or five small nodules. Largest in one lung is 7-8 mm and in the other 10 mm. My oncologist has referred me to a Dr. Weiss at the Emily Couric Cancer Center at UVA hospital for possible IL-2 treatment. He described it as two five day hospital admissions where I'll be monitored in the ICU in case of adverse reactions to the drug. My appt with Dr Weiss may be next Thursday.

Dr. Weiss's bio says he has pioneered the high dose IL-2 therapy for RCC http://www.medicine.virginia.edu/clinical/departments/medicine/divisions/hematology/faculty-fellows/bios/weiss

with this group, but hate to have you need to join in.
It is so disgusting that something no bigger than an uncooked bean could cause so much fear or damage. (I hate to say Kidney bean...but I did.)
Fox is the one to share his experiences with IL2. And I have a friend who had 3 separate sessions with the drug. One week in ICU, then 3 out; and back again. After the third round, the Dr halted the treatment because her heart couldn't handle the drugs. Since that time in 2009, the nodules have remained stable (not growing) and she is OK. But IL2 does mess up your calcium and potassium balance and have a number of other side effects.
So learn all you can about your line of treatment, pull up you big-guy boxers, put on your game face and give it hell. We are partial to survivors and want to include you in this select group of crazies.
Good luck and keep us posted along your journey.
And seeing by the time between when I hit send and got a chance to edit, you are an east coaster. There are many EST people on this board. Hope they respond to you.

Hi Thaxter... sorry you have to be here... The good news is your Mets are very small (wanna trade..???). And there are many treatments that seem to work. Again all good news. The HD IL2 is one tough treatment... not for the meek or the weak. But if it works on you the results can be long term. Not necessarily a cure, but long term for the select few. I am pretty sure I read that some doctors have a screening process that eliminates the poorest candidates, thus increased the success rates of those treated. There are a few posts here on this subject.. but the most in depth posts are from our dear Fox HD, he wrote a very detailed report on his experiences. I do caution you... if you read that post you may wish to be wearing Depends.. it may scare the crap out of you..! Also some people seem to have much less issues during treatment.. and as we all are different who knows for sure what any one person will experience.
Votrient is a very good drug, but can cause (temporary) Liver issues. If so a dose reduction or a change in drugs could happen.
Good Luck..!

was your tumor staged? Your nephrectomy was one week before my husband's; he had scans in late November and is scheduled for round 2 In late February.
i agree with others; Fox is the voice of experience with your recommended treatment.
Smart Patients has discussions on better results when this is combined with other drugs.
good luck to you,
Jan 24, 2014 - 8:59 pm
Hi Thaxter,
Good thoughts coming your way. You will get lots of feedback from members who have had experience with this kind of thing. I am one of the luckier, simpler cases.
All the best!
Jan 25, 2014 - 1:11 am
I would guess 10mm would equal 1cm still small,i will be praying you get good results from your IL-2 treatment and i am sorry your PET scan results came back the way they did.
Jan 25, 2014 - 7:34 am
Even a VT Hokie can cheer on an IL-2 Dr. At UVa !
Go get 'em. If you don't qualify or get cold feet on the IL-2, it is my understanding that my Dr's office will be opening up to patients for the Nivolumab trial arm here in Charlotte. Take a peek at my bio, Nivo took care of my lung mets in 12 weeks (if I recall correctly)
Beat of luck to you.
Jan 25, 2014 - 12:08 pm
I'm not only the Hair Club for Men president, I'm also a client.....oops, wrong commercial. Many others have been on the Il-2. I guess I'm just the most recent. I honestly think that I didn't prove to be as tough as everyone thinks I am. I was like the cheap drunk who can't handle his booze. It didn't take much for me to hit the wall. Mentally it took me to the end of my coping abilities. But physiologically, my body just couldn't tolerate it. Others have managed to recieve much more of the drug than I could. It doesn't reflect ones response to the treatment. I've been told that if Il-2 is to work for someone, only a few doses may be enough. So, I've done well.
My suggestion is to keep in mind that you can live through anything regardless of how hard it is. Getting through the treatments is the short term goal. The long term goal of a cure is well worth the difficulty. I would go for another round of it in a heartbeat. Worth mentioning is the belief that the Il-2 treatments seem to help other drugs be more effective once the Il-2 is in your system. Also worth mentioning is that except for the Il-2 and a couple of doses of zometa for my bones, I have not recieved any other drugs since June or maybe May of 2013. And I am stable. Scans have been reduced to every 3 months. It could change any day. If or when it does, well, that's another story. My doc expects good things to continue happening. She doesn't have a back up plan at this point. So I say ,"Go for it."
I had tried to keep a running post of my treatments beginning in June 2013 on this forum. You can read back and watch my physical and mental health do a nose dive. But now I am feeling as good as I have in at least a couple years. Worth it? Hell yeah!
Jan 25, 2014 - 12:17 pm
I will mention the Charlotte trial to Dr. Weiss when I see him next week for the first time. I don't know what might disqualify me for IL-2. I have mild diabetes and my BP has started to go up again--I had a couple of years of lisinopril but got off last year probably because of losing weight due to kidney cancer. My onc said to go back to HCTZ but I don't have any around except Lisinopril/HCTZ.
I apologize in advance for the drubbing the Hoos will give to the Hokies today at 3:00. Last game where they trounced UNC the announcers seemed to only talk about UNC.
Jan 27, 2014 - 4:07 pm
I did confirm my appointment with Dr. Weiss at UVa. And I've been doing my homework on IL-2. I think I will go for it if I qualify. Since the nephrectomy in September I am feeling so much better and I am back over 200 lbs (was 155 after surgery). I don't know how I will do on the lung function or stress tests--I've been in a sedentary job for 42 years but I am in pretty good health except for the RCC. My BP is elevated--in 2011-2013 I was on lisinopril and HCTZ but when it got to 120 over 80 I was taken off any BP meds last summer. My oncologist said I might want to take HCTZ and when I asked if a diuretic would be hard with one kidney he said it was better than lisinopril. I don't have any HCTZ at home--just combined lisinopril/HCTZ pills and also a very low dose lisinopril--5 mg.-- which was my last prescription. I don't know whether to call my PCP for that or if I can call the oncologist back since I had told him I might have some HCTZ at home. When I asked whether I should see my PCP the oncologist said no.
Anyway, trying to get ducks in a row before my appt with Dr. Weiss on Thursday. It does appear the the UVa cancer center is a long term IL2 site, but I'll ask about that too.

Vacation Hangover
Episode 16: Bravotv.com's Editor thinks the women need a vacation after their St. Barths vacation.
Welcome back to New York City friends. After a "vacation" the women have returned to their natural habitat. Naturally, they packed plenty of baggage on the way back. Will Ramonja ever forgive Aviva? Is Sonja on a "downward spiral"? Are Jacques and LuAnn OK? Did Carole develop a crippling addiction to pink cigarettes? Let's assess. . .
The Bronx's Food Is Burning
Ramona decides to ease back into the real world by having a culinary fest with Sonja and LuAnn. She's going to let the menfolk do the cooking, while she tries to cook up some information about what's going on with Jacques -- just kidding, she's taking a page from LuAnn's book and saying nothing!
Instead the main topic of conversation is Aviva (and sadly not Sonja's headband, which is really what I want to talk about). While LuAnn tries to defend Aviva by mentioning how hard it was for her to make it to St. Barths, Sonja is not having it. She's not going to let Aviva go around insulting people or pretending she's Ernest Rutherford. Ramona is still maintaining that St. Barths-Aviva was some sort of phantom human or dual-personality, and not the woman they've known prior. In the end, Ramona maintains she's a buzzkill even when she's not around, so outlook cloudy on this all blowing over.
Meanwhile, in a gay bar on the other side of town, Carole and Heather have decided to chase their troubles away with alcohol and gay men. This seems to work effectively. The gals drunkenly bond over Aviva's loud voice and the fact that "Boom Boom" was a runaway bride! Yes as it turns out she was engaged to be married and bailed on a Jamaican wedding. Who would have thought that Aviva was once on the cusp of a rasta ceremony. Of course, weeks ago I wouldn't have guessed that Snoop Dogg would have become Snoop Lion. I guess those Rastafarians always sneak up on you.
We also find out later in the episode that Carole is chasing her troubles away with cigarettes. As you can imagine this doesn't go over particularly well with Aviva -- even though the cigarettes are pink. How can anything that's pink hurt you, says science? She should be fine.
A Baby Grows in Brooklyn
After courting the opinions of Manhattan, Heather decides she wants to get LuAnn's good word as well. She wants to know what the Countess thinks of the whole St. Barths bust-up, and so over lunch the subject of dear Aviva comes up. The gals agree that it seems like things might not be fixed, and that Sonja and Aviva might be at odds for some time.
That bummer convo quickly turns to Jacques, and Heather wonders why LuAnn won't just tell her the truth. LuAnn instead talks more about how she's ready to have a baby tout suite! No time for dealing with rumors of indiscretion and phantom Italians. Look at how pregnant she might be!
Of course, that's not the end of the St. Barths backlash. Over dinner, Aviva, Carole, and Heather continue to discuss the issue. Beyond the whole fight aspect (and Heather and Carole's desire for Aviva to get over it), the ladies are more concerned about Sonja. Aviva thinks our Lady Morgan is being used, and wonders just what's going on with her at the moment.
So Carole decides to check out that spiral on a little shirt shopping spree. However, she's majorly distracted from her quest for knowledge when she finds out the shirt maker is none other than Peyman Umay, who Carole went on that awkward date with. In a city of eight million people you still always run into the guy you didn't call back.
After that awkwardness is brushed over, Carole tries to talk to Sonja about how difficult St. Barths, was but Sonja wants focus on how Sonja might not be the ideal hostess. . .Vacations get out of hand says Sonja. "That's what people do on vacation. They party. They get their period. They break glasses. Things happen," quote Lady Morgan. Roll with it Radz, amirite? That basically summarizes every vacation I've ever been on.
No Woman Is a Staten Island
Later in Sonja's Boudoir, tea is being poured by Belgian interns and she and Ramona are discussing her ex. Sonja will be facing him for the first time since 2006 to discuss the settlement. Sonja is very concerned that he feels her proper energy and enjoys her decollete. Huh? Ramona is concerned Sonja's letting her feelings get in the way of the business of getting divorced.
We'll have to see if he remembers who Sonja is and if our girl Sonja will get some sleep anytime soon. . .
Manhattan Major Moment
Over another dinner with Heather, Aviva continues to discuss St. Barths. She would have lived and let live and all, but she felt bullied. And if I've learned anything about people feeling bullied on RHONY, it's that they don't take it sitting down. She's got to say her piece and let it go, which means she's going to have a major tete-a-tete with Sonja.
And so the meeting of the minds begins. Aviva apologies -- but mentions that she behaved the way she did because she didn't feel welcome. Sonja accepts her apology -- but feels Aviva can't take back some of the things she said. Aviva clears up all that Googling and defines white trash as "moral failure." Things. Don't. Go. Well.
At the end of Sonja lays it all out there -- she doesn't care. Boom. She doesn't care about Aviva's thoughts about her downward spiral or her thoughts on her anything frankly, because she is cutting her out of her life. And thusly Sonja takes her hat and pulls out of this one. Adios Aviva.
Next week we see if Aviva's meal with Ramona goes any better (I don't think I even need to say spoiler alert because you're fully aware after seeing this that that could not be possible) and George enters the fray!
What do you think people? Which side are you on Aviva or Ramonja? Leave it in the comments.

Courtney Robertson Doesn't Want Kids Plus 4 More Huge Secrets She's Kept From Ben Flajnik
'Bachelor Ben' and Courtney may be together now, but sources say Courtney is nothing but a liar and gold digger that's only in the relationship for money and fame.
It's hard to imagine that Courtney Robertson, the devious model who won Ben Flajnik's heart on The Bachelor, could have any more skeletons in her closet, but sources say that the 28-year-old beauty has a whole slew of secrets she's hiding from her new beau.
Secret # 1 — She's a liar: New reports from In Touch Weekly claim that Courtney is obsessed with money and her looks — and she'll lie to anyone in order to get what she wants! "Everybody puts on their best face at the beginning of a relationship," an insider reveals to the magazine.
Secret # 2 — She has had tons of plastic surgery: It seems her face (and body) is just as inauthentic as her sparkling personality. Courtney has had numerous plastic surgeries, including implants, fillers, laser surgery and Botox, the insider added.
Secret #3 — She doesn't want kids: "Her life's goal is not to settle down and have kids, it's to be a Playboy model," the source claimed.
Secret #4 & 5 — She wants fame and fortune: Even though posing naked for a men's magazine could drive a rift between the supposed happy couple, Courtney doesn't care. "I think that will be her next move," the insider explains. "She wants the money. All she's really looking for is to be supported financially."

Transferring a specific user on the system
I'm writing an initial program that transfers a specific user to our fallback system. The user is logging on from a 3270 terminal, and the initial program is checking whether or not the user is allowed to run on the production machine. If the user is not allowed, the initial program will issue an STRPASTHR to the fallback machine, which is working OK. The problem comes when I want to use F3 for exit and F12 for cancel(F7 and F8 are working fine for page up/down) on the fallback machine.
Display of the device description on the production machine:
Opt Device Type QPADEV0494 3278
Display of the device description on the fallback machine:
Opt Device Type QPADEV002J 5251
Without looking at the program, it looks like you are getting to the "fallback" machine OK. You might be having an issue with keyboard mapping with the emulation product you are using. Check out the keyboard mapping help in your emulation product. I'm sure you will find what you need to do so that F3 and F12 will work.

To get started, here's a little information for you about Google+:
- Google+ allows you to share updates, photos, videos, and more with your contacts and followers.
- You can create and label groups of people into what are called circles. You share a Google+ message with whichever circles you want. So you can send targeted messages to specific groups of people.
- You can have as many circles as you like and put the same person in several circles. So someone might get all your updates, while others only know you professionally and they only get your business updates.
- Google+ also has Hangouts. These allow you to talk to a group of people (or even just one) using video chat. You can add all the people within a circle to a hangout of just invite people individually.
Facts About Google Plus
Google+ was released in June 2011 and is Google's social media platform.
Statistics show there are over 400 million Google+ users and that the number is growing fast. In November of 2011, Google+ business pages were released which allow businesses to grow a following on this social media platform. Over 1 million business and brand pages were created in the first 6 months after its release.
Although it's a little confusing, there are actually two distinct components to Google+. These are profiles and pages. Google Plus profiles are for people and Google Plus pages are for business or brands.
If you're trying to market your business online, it's best to utilize both a profile and a page. If you just want to pick one (to keep from having to update both), you'll have to pick a profile. That's because you must have a Google+ profile in order to have a page.
If you've done much of anything at Facebook, you'll see a lot of similarity between Google+ and Facebook. Facebook has profiles and pages for business too. And like all social media platforms, they both allow you to connect with followers and share and receive updates.
Despite all of the growth with Google+, Facebook is still the social networking leader.
Google Plus vs Facebook
At this point, more people use Facebook than Google+. But competing for users with Facebook may not really be the main point behind Google+. It's almost certain Google would be happy to knock Facebook out of the ring, but many have speculated Google+ is a way for them to identify people with a nice, shiny new toy. That it's really a means for Google to grab more data and use it to make their search engine better.
This seems to be right in line with what Amit Singhal posted on the Official Google Blog, "We're transforming Google into a search engine that understands not only content, but also people and relationships."
Google + is a way for Google to identify you. They would like you to use your real name when you sign up. The way they do this is by making you sign into Google with one main username and password. At that time, you also choose a name.
If you're using Adwords or YouTube or Gmail, you're probably going to have your real name in the account. For Adwords you'd need to because you're going to tie a credit card into the system. For Gmail you'd probably like the people you're emailing to know who you are.
So they're steering people toward using one login for all Google products and hoping you'll use your real name. As a result, they've got an identity system for the web. Each Google product provides an incentive for you to add your name into their system.
While you can add a nickname, they don't want you using fake names and have actually suspended accounts over this. 'We care about identity and people being authentic on our service.' said Google VP of Product Bradley Horowitz.
How It All Relates
Your Google+ profile is for you personally. Your profile ties in directly with Google Authorship which enables an image of you next to your listing in the SERPs. You also get a link to your Google+ profile in the SERPs so people can add you to their circles and get updates from you (like when you add a new piece of content or have something interesting to say).
People in the SEO world are predicting Author Rank to be a big deal. Enabling Authorship on your site will help Google identify who wrote an article (which is crucial for Author Rank). You must have a Google+ profile set up in order to use this feature.
Google+ pages are for businesses or websites. You must have a Google+ profile to create a page. Each of these, your profile and your page can be updated independently which makes for a more complicated set up for you, but provides a way for more people to find out about you and your business. Although it's worth it to have both, if you don't want to deal with two more social accounts to update you can skip the Google+ page and focus on your profile (again, you have to have a profile in order to create a page or use Authorship).
Why Use It?
There are several reasons why you may want to use Google+ to help promote yourself or your business. The list of benefits includes:
- By using it you can increase your rankings in the search engines. If you tie your Google+ profile to your web content through Google Authorship, then you might see an increase in your rankings as you and your content become more popular. Popularity may be determined by how many followers you have or how long people spend on your content pages. In addition, just the act of tying your content to a Google+ account might result in an SEO boost as spammers will be less likely to do this.
- Your popularity is indicated in your listing in the search engine results pages. If you add Authorship to your pages, then the number of people who add you to their circles may show in your listings in the SERPs. This is social proof. The end result is you may get more and more followers just because you're popular. And the more popular people perceive you to be, the more likely they are to click on that listing.
- Google+ could be more important than other social networks over time because Google has so many products and they all integrate together.
- The links you get within a Google+ profile or page may help your rankings in the Google search engine. Google+ also has its own search feature that isn't used as much as their main search engine, but it still gets direct traffic.
- Google+ is another channel for distributing your content. Being involved with as many channels as possible helps you diversify where your traffic is coming from so that it cannot be turned off.

CLEVELAND, Ohio - The Cleveland State University men's and women's swimming & diving teams continued postseason action Thursday in a pair of events.
A half dozen Viking swimmers competed as CSU hosted the opening day of the National Invitational Championship inside the Robert F. Busbey Natatorium while a duo of divers competed at the NCAA Zone C Diving Championships at Purdue's Morgan J. Burke Aquatic Center.
Sophomore Matt Akers qualified for the men's 1-meter final at the Zone Championships after advancing through the preliminary portion of the event. Akers finished 16th in the 1-meter prelims with 298.65 points, the most by any athlete that did not hail from a Power Five school.
Akers' score was over 50 points higher than his 1-meter prelims score from last year's NCAA Zones meet. His highest scoring dive was a reverse 2.5 somersault tuck that earned 58.50 points, one of three dives that tallied at least 54 points in his opening round.
Akers finished 18th in the 1-meter final at the Zones Championships, just seven spots away from earning an NCAA Championships berth. His final score, covering both prelims and finals, was 579.30 points. His highest scoring dive in the finals was a reverse 1.5 somersault, 2.5 twist free that netted 54.00 points.
Senior Curtis Roden, competing in a Zone Championship for the first time, finished 31st in the 1-meter prelims with 249.25 points. His highest scoring dive was a forward 2.5 somersault pike that tallied 50.70 points.
In the NIC, sophomores Timothy Kubacki and Dominik Niedzialek both scored as individuals while the Viking men also scored in both relays.

The St. Louis Rams met one of their chief offseason priorities -- finding a solid backup for Steven Jackson -- by reportedly agreeing to terms with former Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Cadillac Williams on Wednesday, one day after they added ex-Atlanta Falcon Jerious Norwood.
The NFL free agency cycle is in full effect, with teams and players agreeing to terms fast as training camps open. Get the latest on all the news right here.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported the deal. Terms weren't disclosed.
Williams, 29, was the No. 5 overall pick in the 2005 draft by the Bucs. He rushed for 1,178 yards as a rookie but missed most of the 2007 and 2008 seasons with knee injuries, and he lost his spot as Tampa Bay's featured back last season to LeGarrette Blount.
Williams is expected to be the No. 2 man in the Rams' backfield behind Jackson. Norwood, who also returns kicks, is expected to be No. 3.
Bucs coach Raheem Morris praised Williams, telling the Tampa Tribune.: "One of those guys who was definitely our team leader. He'll be missed around here. Those types you never forget. It's a business. Those things happen. You move on and you embrace this new battle."

lovers and deaf dogs
this holiday let monsters be of fantasy only
crouching behind windshields
squatting behind screens
societal svengalis lurk
unruly wild things pacing clear enclosures
bitter birds choosing not to fly
limitations evaporate
when powered on by false gods
emotional anchors become
looming weights of entitlement
hands grip wheels
steering by fabricated courage
verbal appetites satiated by barbs
served beneath craving fingertips
manipulation expands
a cracked sea sponge tossed into a violent whirlpool
bytes of malice more sour than sun-baked wine
flow over rims of digital goblets
what happens to some
what happens to us
communicating without the skin of our souls
the flesh of our humility
the forbearance of our hearts
what will become of us
when traveling forward
without the divinity of pure movement
and humble earth beneath our feet
as this holiday season fast approaches
may we remember
humanity dwells inside
each and every one of us
let monsters be made of fantasy only
inspired this weekend while returning my daughter to college-many crazed people driving the highways-
many crazed drivers on cell phones rushing to cybershop
it's different today
alone with people
lonely inside himself
like her
it's different today
there are those who are complete
with Barbie accessories
used to be days-of-the-week underwear
she's dating herself
how fun it was back then to misplace Friday
nothing humorous about G-strings
unless you count the wedge itch
you can't scratch in public
that's the problem with this new crop of lovers
no sense of humor
'cleverness' is their wheelhouse
those pouting cell phone faces
hair calculatingly tousled
upper and lower bulges endlessly optimized
in faux snake scale
elegant mystery lost on past illusions
the past
he covets one
a sense of humor
present when he's not trying to be so hard
with thoughts
or backstories
like her
prancing around boldness
except on the dance floor
'80's disco gloriously simplistic
they are alike
they are alone
in a world beset by shiny upstarts
bedazzled with
Barbie accessories
they summon old-school dreams
and pray these fading thoughts will keep them company
when they are alone
slithered out of my head last night-thank you
gently now
humble citizens eternally petrified
warm mammoths ice entombed
broken vessels anchored deep
hard lessons in dying
peaceful silence
go gently now

eyes in plain view

we all enter this place
flesh parallel to screen
after our fingers alight
you disconnect
it is difficult
to fully appreciate
your faceless ingenuity
illumination is enlightenment
darkness often deceitful
liquid crystal display

too easy
for you to lurk
these days…

binary affairs
we bathe in their glow
let their little emojis kiss us
allow acronyms to replace endearments
they tell us where to go
and we never question
round zeros, stiff ones ('binarily' speaking)
fit discreetly into our pockets
where the vibrations excite us
we weep if we lose them
panic when we leave them
turn ons
turn offs
so attentive to their every whim
our new lovers
oh, how we obsess
if "they" don't sleep with us
maybe we still have a chance
of reclaiming our 'humaness' 😉

Slowing the Speed Dial
Your name remains
though you have gone
The number reaches
but not your arm
ear to resin.
I hear your voice
I see your face
Clutch the receiver
connecting to
ethereal digits.
Scroll the list
You are there
remaining present
memory stored
calculated bytes.
I puncture delete
claiming the erasure
Pressing onward
a dark mute note
accepted hollow.
Sunset next
I call your name
I hear your voice
I see your face
tears expunged.
Spaces open
the sunrise here
a valiant burst
of cleansing warmth
a new day…
May you dream from a place of warm memory…

Unveiled in its latest showing at Barcelona Fashion Week, the new Pierre Cardin collection presents a line of futuristic-looking outerwear and casual wear. Monochromatic sweaters with green detailing and geometric shapes were seen on the runway along with coats and suits with structural cuts, postmodern tailoring and buckle details.
Bright uses of color were also present throughout the collection. Electric pinks, blues, yellows in addition to bold tones of red and green made appearances in the line's showing of plastic raincoats and high-waisted trousers. My favorite piece from the collection was a vertically striped white and yellow blazer that would brighten up anyone's spirits, even on the most gloomy spring day. So if you're looking to add some more color to your wardrobe this season, check out the Pierre Cardin collection from Barcelona Fashion Week.

In the early winter, when the holidays roll around, the world is awash in Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, and New Year's themed stories. Six months later it is summer, with July 4th (a holiday I am partial to)—but I realized that no one seems to celebrate summer in writing the same way we do in December. So I decided to pull together a "smattering" of summer stories—stories that feature and celebrate summer in the same way that Christmas stories celebrate Santa Claus.
Leading the pack: Shining in the Sun by Alex Beecroft, her first foray into a contemporary story. The cover alone, with its gold tones, ocean, and a surfer brought me right into the hot days of August. I've never been to the beach in England but I've been to the shore in the US plenty of times and Beecroft, with her usual lush prose, fully captures the sights, sounds, and scents—suntan lotion, fried foods, and the crash of the surf in the distance. Shining in the Sun takes place over the month of August—I shared Alec's anticipation of his month-long respite away from family, work, and daily responsibilities; I shared his mounting anxiety as his vacation time drew short. Funny how a month seems endless on the first day of vacation but three weeks in, where has the time gone? Shining in the Sun is a book that begs to be read in August, while on holiday. If you haven't done so yet, put it on your TBR list and pick it up in a few weeks—preferably at the beach.
Lessons in Desire, the second book in the very popular Cambridge Fellows series by Charlie Cochrane, features Jonty and Orlando on holiday on the Channel Island of Jersey. Orlando, straight-laced fellow that he is, learns to unwind a bit and enjoy traditional summer vacation activities: walking on the beach and collecting shells; eating fish and chips out of a newspaper packet; and yes, even a little skinny-dipping with a chaste, but public kiss. I've enjoyed all the stories in this series but Lessons in Desire stands out in my mind because of the lovely holiday setting and the relaxed and enjoyable time that Jonty and Orlando share, even in the midst of solving a murder.
Aidan and Colm spend quite a bit of time on the beach in The Rest of Our Lives by Dan Stone. Their sojurn in Provincetown, Massachusetts was particularly romantic. It made me wish the Tarot Inn really existed so I could stay in their beautifully appointed suite. The Pilgrim Monument does exist, however, and thinking of them making love atop of it, as a thunderstorm flashed in the sky around them—well, it was hot. They have magical powers and when they really get going they levitate, which is a particularly handy skill when having sex on the beach—which they do, quite a few times. Note that Colm and Aidan are a little more lusty than the characters in the preceding two books, but that was fine with me. It fit the tone and kept things sizzling for this hot summer book.
L.A. Heat by P.A. Brown takes a different view of summer: Detective David Laine is not on vacation but working hard in the blistering heat of Los Angeles in July and August. He is on the trail of a serial murderer, nicknamed "The Carpet Killer." Golden-haired Chris Bellamere is an early suspect; with his fabulous California good looks, he should be on a surfboard, not in a line-up. As the investigation drags on, David gets hot under the collar, for more reasons than one. This is definitely a steamy summer book and one that I re-visit on a regular basis. Brutal killings as a comfort read? It works for me because I really love the developing romance between Chris and David in this first entry in the "L.A." series.
My last two choices don't feature summer quite as prominently, but it still comes through in the story. In Taming Groomzilla by E.N. Holland, Joel and Luke are busy planning their October wedding after an April proposal. One hot Saturday in July, Joel suggests that they go shopping for wedding rings, giving them the opportunity to spend a few hours in air conditioning. The owner of Page Jewelers is a longtime friend of Joel's family; when he introduces Luke as his fiancé and explains the purpose of their visit, he notes Mrs. Page's reaction:
I saw a slight shadow flicker across her face, a tiny look of disapproval in her eyes. I couldn't really blame her. She was older, from a different generation. Men didn't marry men in her day. Instead, they got thrown in jail."
A bittersweet moment for the couple, one that contrasted with the heat of the day.
Perfect by Julia Talbot takes place over a year. It starts in July with Avery and Louis breaking up and concludes a year later when they finally get back together. It holds a particular place of affection in my heart because Avery shares a birthday with me (July 2nd) and like me, he always thinks the July 4th fireworks exist especially for him. It's a very happy ending to a sweet book that I enjoyed very much.
So there you have it. A six-pack of summer treats, offered up for your enjoyment. All have been reviewed on this site. I include the links below if anyone wants to refresh their memory on what the reviewers had to say about each of them. And now, I ask the readers here: what are your favorite summer stories? Please share in the comments!

ASHLAND, Va. – Randolph-Macon women's tennis snagged an important conference victory over Roanoke 5-4 Saturday afternoon at the Banks Tennis Center in Ashland, Va. Juniors Gaby Tersigni (Yorktown, Va. / York) and Stephanie Yeager (Fairfax, Va. / Robinson Secondary) and sophomore Kristin Dantzler (Williamsburg, Va. / York) did not lose on the afternoon to ensure R-MC got the victory, moving to 9-3 overall and 7-1 in the conference while Roanoke fell to 12-5 overall and 7-4 in the conference.
In the doubles competition, Tersigni and Dantzler partnered up to defeat Roanoke's Jessica Kennedy and Avery Smith 8-6. The duo is now 2-1 since being teamed up as the #1 doubles pair.
#2 doubles pair, Yeager and freshman Olivia Uzer (McLean, Va. / Langley), found similar success, defeating Catherine Lee and Madeline Herring 8-5. Yeager and Uzer are 3-0 since being paired up.
#3 doubles pair of senior Sarah Hinson (Nashville, N.C. / Northern Nash) and sophomore Landon Aud (Fishersville, Va. / Wilson Memorial) were not able to overcome Roanoke's Janny Alvarado and Carolyn Kitsock, losing 8-6. Overall the pair is 6-2 this season, all from the #3 doubles spot.
In the singles competition, R-MC was able to win the first three matches, gaining the team the overall win for the day.
Tersigni, R-MC's #1 singles player, defeated Kennedy 6-0, 6-2 to put R-MC closer to the match victory. Tersigni is now 8-4 on the season in singles, all from the #1 spot.
Yeager also secured a victory in #2 singles 6-1, 6-4. Yeager raised her season record to 4-7 on the season, all from #2 singles.
Dantzler closed the match out for R-MC with a 7-5, 6-2 win over Smith. Dantzler is now 9-3 on the season, including 8-3 from #3 singles.
Roanoke's bottom half of the singles lineup took some wind out of R-MC's sails though. Uzer and Aud lost just their third matches in singles this season, while Hinson lost just her first singles match of 2018. All still have winning records in #4, #5 and #6 singles respectively.
Herring defeated Uzer 6-3. 4-6 and 1-0 (10-3) while Kitsock got the better of Aud 7-6 (7-5), 3-6 and 1-0 (10-7). Hinson had a tough battle in the first set as well before losing 7-6 (7-4), 6-3.
Randolph-Macon is back in action Tuesday against Lynchburg at 2:00 at the Banks Tennis Center.

Jane's story
As a part of a wild swimming group I love to keep healthy by spending time outdoors, so I was shocked to learn that my cholesterol level was so high.
During my 21 Day Challenge I found the switches really easy to implement; I incorporated the Flora ProActiv products into my diet and started walking a lot more. When I finally got the results I was genuinely blown away, I'd reduced my cholesterol from 6.5 to 5.7! It just goes to show you that you can do it! Watch my journey below:

A letter to the editor published in the Surrey/North Delta Leader on April 25:
I would never be so naïve as to suggest that tobacco control (tobacco being the leading -- and most easily and cheaply preventable -- cause of disease, disability and premature death, by far) should ever be a 'sliver', never mind an entire 'plank', of any political party's pre-election platform but...
Within four short years of Gordon Campbell's Liberals coming to power (in 2001, at which time B.C. was #1 [provincially/territorially] in Canada, in terms of tobacco control), B.C. plummeted to 9th! And under Christy Clark's leadership, the situation has not improved.
If... correction, when the NDP wins the next election, I have several suggestions as to how Adrian Dix et al can bring B.C. out of the dark ages on this important matter, and there is no better place to start than by getting tobacco out of all pharmacies...in the very last province/territory to do so.
Great legacy, Gordo and Christy!

On March 30, the Vancouver Sun published this article: Tobacco smuggling jeopardizes border traffic. This is the first sentence: "Because keeping the border open and goods flowing with our American neighbours is practically the definition of Canada's economic self-interest, anything that attracts the unfavourable attention of Washington to our border is to be avoided at all costs."
Now, that's the way to get the reader's attention: something is going on that might interfere with your ability to make those trips to Bellingham to get gallon jugs of milk and high-quality, low-cost shoes at Big 5.
What the article is about is the smuggling of cigarettes from Canada into the United States. It was written by Brian Lee Crowley, who is identified as the managing director of the Macdonald-Laurier Institute.
This deserves further scrutiny. "Macdonald-Laurier Institute": named after two of Canada's most famous prime ministers. That sounds important. (Of course, if I named my cats "Sir John A." and "Sir Wilfrid", that wouldn't make them important.) However, the use of the word "institute" should be a red flag for any student of Postmedia publications. That's because the associate editor of the Sun, Fazil Mihlar, was a "fellow" of the Fraser Institute prior to joining Postmedia. This is the Fraser Institute that takes money from the Koch brothers and ExxonMobil, and uses it to champion climate change denial. They also put out an annual ranking of British Columbia high schools, which is reported as "news" by the Sun, The Province, and CKNW without any questions raised about its accuracy or usefulness.
So, what is this "Macdonald-Laurier Institute"? It was characterized by Donald Gutstein of The Tyee as a "key accomplice to Tories in their assaults on truth."
Crowley, author of the Sun piece, believes that the tar sands, fracking, and fish farms are good things. The institute doesn't reveal who funds them, so we don't know who (other than Peter Munk of Barrick Gold) is paying for their opinions.
We do know that one of their directors is Purdy Crawford, who was the CEO of Imasco from 1985 to 2000. Imasco was a holding company whose assets included Imperial Tobacco, the purveyors of Player's, Du Maurier, and Matinee cigarettes.
Crawford would be a good resource for Crowley on the subject of cigarette smuggling. During Crawford's watch at Imasco, Imperial Tobacco was selling 6 billion cigarettes a year in the United States; this was 24% of their sales. No, people in the US were not switching from Marlboro to Player's in significant numbers. These cigarettes were shipped to warehouses in the US, then sold to smugglers, who illegally brought the cigarettes back into Canada. This activity is documented in Imperial Tobacco internal memos. Crawford appears on-camera in this CBC News story aired February 1, 2009:
So, why does the Macdonald-Laurier Institute, Crowley, and likely Crawford, now have an interest in the issue of cigarette smuggling? One possible explanation is, things have changed since 2000. The cigarettes being smuggled now have the brand names "Play Fares", "Golden Leaf", "Signal", and "Wolf Pack" instead of Player's, Matinee, and Du Maurier. Haven't heard of these brands? That's because they are manufactured on Indian reserves, instead of by BAT (Imasco's successor), Philip Morris, and the other Big Tobacco companies. Perhaps the Big Tobacco companies don't want any competition, so Crowley's article is the start of an effort to push Canadian and US governments to shut this competition down. However, if this is what the real agenda is, don't expect to read about it in the Vancouver Sun.
Anti-tobacco activists are regularly told (most often, by our critics) that "education" is, if not the only way to end the tobacco epidemic, certainly the biggest/most important factor in ending it...bearing in mind that, while it definitely has a role, we've been doing the education thing for 50 years now... AND THE GLOBAL DEATH TOLL IS STILL RISING, AT AN EVER-INCREASING RATE!!!
NEWS FLASH: As alluded to above, while education plays a role, it is NOT the biggest/most important factor in ending the tobacco epidemic; good, effective, no loopholes, enforceable and, when necessary, aggressively enforced LEGISLATION is, by far, the single most important factor in ending the tobacco epidemic.
That said, it's time for a little education, anti-tobacco style.
And, speaking of NEWS FLASHES...
I just learned about the death of tobacco whore Margaret Thatcher... and found myself wondering if anybody -- including Jon McComb (sitting in for Philip Till, on CKNW), Vaughn Palmer (clearly, a big fan of Thatcher's) and Philip Till or anybody else (tobacco-friendly media or not) around the world, fan or critic -- will have the balls to say a single word about the following (from Wikipedia... and I've high-lighted some of the more important details):
Thatcher returned to the backbenches as MP for Finchley for two years after leaving the premiership. She retired from the House at the 1992 election, aged 66, saying that leaving the Commons would allow her more freedom to speak her mind.
After leaving the House of Commons, Thatcher became the first former Prime Minister to set up a foundation; it closed down in 2005 because of financial difficulties. She wrote two volumes of memoirs, The Downing Street Years (1993) and The Path to Power (1995).
In July 1992, Thatcher was hired by the tobacco company Philip Morris as a "geopolitical consultant" for $250,000 per year and an annual contribution of $250,000 to her foundation. [Sources other than Wikipedia specify $1 million or $2 million over a three-year contract.] She also earned(???) $50,000 for each speech she delivered.
Thatcher's role for Philip Morris was to open up European markets to Philip Morris' products, especially Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union. From a Philip Morris internal memo, dated November 20, 1991: "Mrs. Thatcher is available to consult with executives of the Company on a variety of matters in which she has expertise, including risk analyses of investments which we may be contemplating in foreign countries, matters pending before the European Commission or Member-State Parliaments, and strategic issues that affect our business in various parts of the world . Mrs. Thatcher is particularly knowledgeable about the common market, Eastern Europe, Russia, China, South Africa, and Japan."
Thatcher was particularly successful in Kazakhstan. She made a trip there, and convinced the government to sell off their state-owned tobacco company to Philip Morris.
Philip Morris was so happy with the job she did for them, they paid for a 70th birthday bash for her on October 23, 1995 in Washington, D.C. 800 guests attended and the estimated cost of the party was $1 million.
Thatcher was just one of many high level politicians/bureaucrats who have been -- before, during and/or after their political careers -- little more than obscenely-well-paid puppets of Big Tobacco.
In Canada, for example, the federal Liberals -- under the leadership of former tobacco executive Paul Martin -- were known as "The Tobacco Party of Canada". Many high-ranking police officers -- including former RCMP Commissioner Norman Inkster -- either directly work for or closely collaborate with various and sundry convenience store associations (read, tobacco industry front groups), under the guise of combating cigarette smuggling. And Stephen Harper appointed former Tory Cabinet Minister Barbara McDougall to the International Development Research Centre -- a federal crown corporation which "...funds researchers in the developing world so they can build HEALTHIER, more prosperous societies" (emphasis mine) -- despite the fact that McDougall was, at the time of her appointment, a tobacco executive! And, despite a firestorm of controversy about 3 years ago (including demands for McDougall's resignation and, when that failed, calls for Harper to remove her), when the IDRC was scheduled to dole out a bunch of big cheques to African anti-tobacco organizations, McDougall now chairs the IDRC! Those represent just the tip of a very large high-level/pro-tobacco iceberg.
While some people may feel a need to shed a tear or two for Maggie, if I had the opportunity, I'd spit on her grave!

It is with great sadness that Vancouver-based Airspace Action on Smoking and Health notes the recent passing of former New York City Mayor Ed Koch. He died Friday (Feb 1, 13) in NYC at the age of 88.
Here's a quote from one of the articles about his funeral:
"Those who spoke drew tears, laughs and applause from mourners as they remembered Koch's in-your-face chutzpah, endearing humor and charismatic leadership style.
[Former U.S. President Bill] Clinton recalled how Koch hated cigarettes and knew it would be hard to reach young people with anti-tobacco messages. So when [current NYC Mayor Michael] Bloomberg launched his ambitious campaign against smoking, Koch offered him some cheeky marketing advice.
"Go after the virility argument!'' Koch said, according to Clinton.
Clinton said even when Koch was sick in recent weeks, the former mayor kept asking about the health of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who had been hospitalized over the after-effects of a concussion..."
Here's the entire article.
On a personal note:
Although I never met the man, I tried, unsuccessfully, to contact Ed Koch in the lead-up to my 2010 Journey for a Tobacco-Free World (which, by the way, ended in NYC). If he had joined the many prominent endorsers of the run (at www.tobaccofreeworld.ca/endorsements ), that would have been very cool.
Ed Koch was a true hero of the anti-tobacco movement...one of very few prominent politicians, anywhere, who had the guts to truly stand up to Big Tobacco (take note, Stephen Harper, Christie Clark, et al).
Our deepest condolences to the family and friends of Ed Koch.
A letter to the editor published in the Windsor Star, January 28, 2013:
Re: Just leave smokers alone, opinion column by Chris Vander Doelen, Jan. 23.
Wow, so much misdirected anger.
Regarding tobacco control, I'm no fan of government, especially the current federal one (contact me for some "juicy" info about Stephen Harper).
Chris is also angry toward anyone who "nags" or "nagged" him and his (former) fellow smokers, unaware of the distinction between loving, gentle persuasion and nagging.
So much anger but in the column, Chris blissfully ignores what should be every smokers' primary target — big tobacco, which thrives primarily on its ability to hook and addict generation after generation of illegal/underage kids. Most tragically now, in developing nations, where big tobacco freely goes about its raping and pillaging, unfettered by pesky tobacco control laws.
Chris tells us that "government bureaucrats" and, presumably, anti-tobacco activists, are "addicted to a drug as insidious as nicotine: the self-satisfaction of telling others how to live."
Tobacco is a public health issue that has nothing whatsoever to do with "telling others how to live" any more than drunk driving laws do.
It's ironic and hilarious that after all of Chris's whining about government, he says, "It was my resentment at the taxes that finally spurred me to quit."
Higher prices are a huge factor in smokers quitting. Health care costs directly attributable to tobacco far outweigh tobacco tax revenues, so it's a lose-lose proposition no matter how you look at it. The only ones getting rich are tobacco companies.
Finally, something Chris and I can agree on. He says, "You cannot defeat a chemical addiction simply by changing the delivery method" and that you've got to "starve the nicotine monster."
Absolutely correct. But besides all addictive and deadly tobacco products, the real "nicotine monster" is big tobacco.
So, Chris supports my ultimate goal of putting big tobacco out of business, right?

A letter to the editor published (with some editing) in the National Post on January 25, 2013:
I wish I could honestly say that Jesse Kline makes a powerful argument on behalf of his puppet masters at Big Tobacco, but I can't: Invalid and illegitimate as any and all arguments condoning public smoking are, Kline's (in, B.C. crusade seeks more restrictions on outdoor smokers [Jan. 23]) definitely rank among the lamest, least eloquent and most laughable.
Take, "Three decades ago, when smoking was commonplace in airports, bars and offices, it was almost inconceivable that these areas would one day be smoke free." for example. Not so many decades ago, slavery was commonplace... and it was almost inconceivable that slavery would ever be eradicated too!
And then there's, "First it was elevators, then classrooms and workplaces..." (emphasis mine). Can you imagine? The nerve of "the tireless anti-smoking crusader" (or "anti-tobacco Nazi", as Bruce Allen calls us), wanting to breathe something other than the toxic, carcinogenic residue of somebody else's habit in an elevator!
That said, whether it's Kline's opinion or that of more eloquent and, presumably, better-paid puppets of Big Tobacco, like the Michael Siegel Kline quoted, they all conveniently overlook one minor detail: Smoking is NOT addictive!
Nicotine is the most addictive drug on the planet, but smoking is nothing more than an albeit powerful habit. With literally dozens of nicotine replacement therapies now available, there is no justification whatsoever for continuing to allow smoking in any public place, workplace or MUD (multi-unit dwelling, including apartments, condos, townhomes, etc.)... indoors or outdoors.

With the utmost of respect for all victims of bullying...
I will wear a pink shirt (on Pink Shirt Day [Feb 27, 13] and every other day of the week) the day that the most high-profile cheer-leader of the anti-bullying movement -- B.C.'s very own premier, Christy Clark -- publicly acknowledges that her good friends at Big Tobacco are the biggest, meanest and nastiest corporate bullies on the planet.
What's the connection between Big Tobacco and the largest single group of bullying victims: Teens and pre-teens? So glad you asked.
The multi-billion dollar global tobacco industry survives and thrives based almost exclusively on its ability to hook and addict generation after generation of illegal/under-aged kids. And child slavery continues to be a huge issue on tobacco plantations in many developing nations of the world. Until Clark acknowledges those facts and turns her back on her old pals, her integrity and her sincerity -- whenever she speaks about anti-bullying and/or Pink Shirt Day -- must be questioned.

I grew up as a kid watching all the Freddy movies. As the series went along, Freddy became less scary. He wasn't scary like he was in the first two movies. He went from being a very scary, very mean guy to just being a scary clown, with more emphasis on the clown aspect. Then he was scary again in New Nightmare. And then he was somewhere in between in Freddy vs. Jason. Either way, Englund was in top form in every single incarnation. So of course, the first thing on everyone's mind is how in the hell will Jackie Earle Haley top what Englund has created. After watching this, and liking Jackie, I came to the conclusion that nobody, no matter how good of an actor, will ever top Robert Englund. In a sense, the role of Freddy is like the Joker; it goes from simply trying to top an actor to just giving up and realizing that the original actor can't be topped, in which case, you simply have to make it different and make it your own. Which is probably what Haley did. It's like if someone were to try and top Ledger's Joker:It wouldn't be possible, so they just do the next best thing: Make the character their own and give their own awesome take on it; it might not live up to the original, but it can still be a good performance. Simply put, Robert Englund is Freddy, and the only thing another actor can do is simply give a different interpretation and make it a good alternative. I really liked Haley's take on Freddy Krueger, and in all, I really liked this take on Elm Street in general. In comparison to the other movies, this one seems to have more weight, it seems much meatier. It makes you think about things a lot more than the old movies did. They do this by giving Freddy a human side, a back story. Nothing about the character is really changed, he's just explored more than he was in other movies.
This remake was really interesting to me because they made Freddy a really ambiguous character. Throughout the movie, you're left wondering whether or not he's actually guilty of harming the children. During the first half, it seems very likely that he was wrongly accused, and during that same half, you're left thinking that all of his killing might just be because he's legitimately angry and getting revenge on the kids that got him killed. Even though he's an awful person already, you're still left thinking that maybe he was a good guy. He certainly seemed like a really good guy in the flashbacks. This ambiguity added an extra dynamic to the movie that the original didn't have.Now when you finally realize that Freddy was really bad man, that he really is sick enough to hurt children and then wanna kill them because they simply told the truth about him, it makes the movie, and Freddy himself, much more interesting and a little creepier. When you're watching the flashbacks, you're left thinking that he might've been a good guy, but when you realize that he never was, you're forced to realize that this seemingly good hearted guy was a very mean, very awful and evil psychopath underneath it all. When you realize that he's relishing and enjoying killing all these kids (now grownup) just because they told on him, it makes him a lot creepier and just completely different in comparison to the old movies.
All the actors were really good. Kyle Gallner is pretty cool and he's pretty awesome in most of the movies he's in. Thomas Dekker was pretty good, I liked Rooney Mara as Nancy and Clancy Brown is always awesome in anything he's in Overall, I really liked the movie. It could have easily turned out terrible. It's much better than the nightmare sequels, and it's a new take on Freddy, and I really liked it. It doesn't tarnish the original, it doesn't try to imply that the original was crap, it's just a new take.

Aboriginal crafts 'made in Indonesia', ACCC claims
A Redcliffe-based souvenir supplier who blew the whistle on "fake indigenous art'' is being prosecuted for allegedly selling "Aboriginal boomerangs" made in Indonesia.
The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) today launched Federal Court action alleging that Birubi Art sold 18,000 "Aboriginal" boomerangs, didgeridoos, message stones and bullroarers made in Indonesia.
The products were displayed with the words "Aboriginal Art", "Australia'', "handcrafted'' and "hand painted''.
The #ACCC has taken wholesaler #BirubiArt to court for selling knock-off Indigenous art alleging it made misleading Indigenous art claims: https://t.co/COaSBdlQBG pic.twitter.com/YYqaxxm35A— CHOICE (@choiceaustralia) March 22, 2018
"We allege that Birubi's conduct is damaging as it is likely to mislead consumers into thinking they are buying genuine handmade Aboriginal art when they are not,'' ACCC Commissioner Sarah Court said today.
"This has the potential to undermine the integrity of Aboriginal art and negatively impact indigenous artists.''
But Birubi Art director Ben Wooster told The Courier Mail today that some products were made in Indonesia under licence, with the consent of the Aboriginal artists.
"We do have a licensing agreement with Aboriginal artists - they were made under licence,'' he said.
In its statement of claim, filed in the Federal Court, the ACCC alleges the products were manufactured in Indonesia.
"Neither the products nor the relevant labels or packaging included any reference to them being made in Indonesia,'' it says.
"The artwork or designs on each of the products reproduced visual images, symbols and styles which are recognised as being characteristic of Aboriginal art and/or artwork painted by indigenous Australians.''
Ms Court said that in the lead up to the Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast next month, souvenir sellers must ensure that products sold as "indigenous cultural objects or art'' are authentic.
Mr Wooster told The Courier Mail he was too busy to comment on the ACCC action but he has told a federal parliamentary inquiry into Aboriginal art that "authentic artists … are all the victims of fake, and ripped off art''.
"Quite frankly there is an extraordinary amount of product for sale on Australian retail tourist outlet shelves purporting to be 'Aboriginal art' that is completely devoid of any input from any indigenous artist, ever,'' his submission states.
Mr Wooster told the inquiry he opposed a ban on imports of indigenous art, on the grounds that Australia does "not have the natural resources available''.
"The market simply cannot be fed only by what can be produced ethically and responsibly here in Australia,'' he said.
The Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet told the inquiry that Aboriginal items can still be "authentic'' if made overseas under "an appropriate licensing agreement with an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander artist or designer''.

1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¾ cup whole plain yogurt
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 ounces olive oil
10 ounces sugar
3 large eggs
3–4 raw carrots, grated
1¹/₃ cups toasted walnuts, chopped
²/₃ cup rum soaked raisins*
Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together yogurt, vanilla extract, olive oil, sugar and eggs. Add wet mixture to dry mixture, mixing until just combined. Fold in carrots, walnuts and raisins. Using an ice-cream scoop, scoop muffin batter into a well-buttered or sprayed muffin pan; batter should just reach the tops of the muffin tin. Place muffin pan on center oven rack and bake 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool before removing from muffin tins and serving. For raisins: Pour 2 tablespoons rum over dry raisins and add enough hot water to cover. Soak 15 minutes; pour off water and allow raisins to dry.
