Frequently Asked Questions
Modular Programmes
What is a General Practitioner Certificate – GPCert?
The General Practitioner Certificate examination is included within the cost of the modular programme. It is a middle-tier qualification awarded by the International School of Veterinary Postgraduate Studies (ISVPS) which is a not-for-profit accrediting and awarding body based in the UK. Improve International's modular programmes ensure that you are provided with the highest quality of appropriate practical and clinically relevant training to prepare you for undertaking the GPCert assessments. The GPCert is awarded in recognition of the additional time dedicated to furthering your knowledge and skills and indicates that you have achieved a deeper understanding in your area of interest which can then be applied to more complicated cases in general practice.
What does the GPCert examination consist of?
The GPCert examination consists of a multiple-choice question (MCQ) paper. All MCQs are provided by the speakers of each Improve International modular programme and are reviewed and approved by the ISVPS examination committee. The examination paper will assess all areas of the course syllabus and hence assess your knowledge in your chosen subject area. The duration of the MCQ examination will depend on the subject being studied but will last between 2-4hrs. Examinations can be taken in an ISVPS invigilated venue or online in the comfort of your own home with one to one remote invigilation (provided by our remote invigilation partner TestReach for an additional fee).
What is a Postgraduate Certificate (PgC)?
The PgC is a university qualification which provides 60 academic credits. The qualification is positioned at masters level seven within the Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) framework for higher and further education. The 60 credits can be used towards achieving a PgD 120 credits and a Masters degree which represents 180 credits at level seven. The PgC is a recognised academic qualification which will demonstrate that you have achieved a certain standard in that subject.
What is the criteria for enrolment?
All applicants must:
- Hold a veterinary qualification
- Have spent a minimum of one year in veterinary practice
- UK-based applicants must also be on the RCVS Home Practising Register, whilst applicants based outside the UK must hold a qualification that would entitle them to register as a member of the RCVS
Additionally, UK-based veterinary surgeons who qualified from 2007 onwards must have completed the RCVS Professional Development Phase (PDP) before they can enrol.
Over what time period can I take the taught modules?
You can take up to 3 years to spread your taught modules.
I have previously achieved a GPCert. Can I use this towards a PgC?
You are able to "upgrade" from a GPCert to a PgC within 5 years of the GPCert exam date. Please contact ISVPS for further information – ISVPS.
How are Improve's Modular training programmes different to other providers?
Improve's modular training programmes have been developed over a period of 20 years and are taught by world-renowned experts in their field. They successfully blend theoretical lectures with hands-on practical sessions where appropriate and delegates also have access to valuable online learning components.
How many hours will I spend on my certificate?
A PgC comprises 600 hours of notional study. This is typically made up of the following:
- 100 hours of taught sessions and ten hours of practical experience for Small Animal Medicine
- 70 hours of taught sessions and 48 hours of practical experience for Small Animal Surgery
- 82-94 hours preparing for and reflecting on the taught sessions. This includes pre and post course online evaluation and self-reflection
- 200 hours of independent study, including the preparation and writing of assignments
- 200 hours preparing for final examination
How will I be assessed?
At the beginning of the programme, you will receive a syllabus and specific learning objectives for all of the taught modules.
During the programme, you will be required to document your current knowledge and skills prior to each module and undertake an informal short multiple-choice exercise. After the module, you will then undertake a further multiple choice exercise to reflect on the knowledge gained and implement a strategy to address any outstanding knowledge and skills gaps via independent study.
ISVPS provide the assessments, please refer to the Postgraduate Certificate area for more information.
The final examination takes place yearly covering the course syllabus. You must have attended all modules to be entered for the final exam.
What resources will be available to support me through the modular training programme?
All delegates progressing to a PgC will receive a subscription to Harper Adam's online e-library providing access to 1,000s of scientific articles and abstracts.
Medicine delegates will be provided with Improve International's Manual of Small Animal Medicine Vol 1 and 2 and Surgery delegates will receive Improve International's Manual of Small Animal Surgery Vol 1 and 2.
The Improve Learning Management System provides access to a notes library, discussion forum and other study resources including webinars.
A dedicated Programme Tutor will support every individual during their PgC programme to ensure a rewarding and successful learning journey.
More information can be found on our Learning Support page
ISVPS will also provide support with assignments.
How can I fit a modular CPD programme into my busy life?
Our PgC programmes are flexible to try to enable you to fit study in to busy practice life. With our Clinical PgCs, we have tried to ensure two modules are offered back-to-back for the duration of the course to reduce your travel time and costs and make the learning experience more immersive. With our Medicine and Surgery PgCs, these are run every month from 2-8pm, therefore reducing the amount of time out of practice.
I want to register on a modular programme but I may be away for some of the modules. Does this mean I will miss out?
No. We understand that you are busy professionals and aim to be as flexible as possible.
Whilst we need advance notice if you are going to be unable to attend a particular module, we will make every effort to find you an alternative venue and date. If the alternative dates don't suit, you can attend the missed module when the programme runs the following year. The only restriction is that you need to attend all of the taught modules before you can sit the relevant ISVPS examination.

In this shivery season of bubble jackets and steaming bowls of broth, keeping up with your #fitspo exercise regime is perhaps (most definitely) the hardest part.
Cue: Melbourne's free fitness trend that, in the words of the co-founder, "is more like a giant party". If you're anything like me (champion speed chocolate eater and occasional tipsy walker), this is fitness you'll actually want to do.
Founded by a trio of fitty little Melbournians, the AM:PM:RC hosts events in Melbourne on an ad hoc basis. You can wave goodbye to the heavy breathing, 4am sprinters you avoid around your local park.
One of the first crew running trend-setters, Cedric Hernandez founded Bridge Runners in New York back in 2004. Hernandez is on a (oh-so-casual) international running tour of Melbourne, Seoul and Bangkok when we catch up with him. His (also very casual) life achievements include a 100-mile run in under 25 hours, across the five boroughs of New York City.
"It's all about motivating each other and running with the person next to you, rather than watching your own time," Hernandez explains. Aka if your body is approximately fifty percent Uber eats at any one time, you're still welcome to tag along to any run sans the fear of being left behind.
His personal preference are evening runs because, "we can workout and then go straight to the club". THESE PEOPLE ARE GENIUSES.
AM:PM:RC is the Melbourne-version of Bridge Runners. Routes change every week and are organised within the crew. Along with regular runs, future event ideas include the Rubbish Run. The proposed event involves the Melbourne crew running along the Merri Creek trail before walking back along the river to clean and pick up waste.
Co-founder, co-captain and full-time Melbourne photographer Ben Clement may be exasperatingly humble about his lens game, but he isn't shy about the crew's love for food. "It is a really important aspect of the crew, in fact running is almost secondary to the food," he says, much to the delight of every food-loving Melburnian. "It's all about building a community—hanging out, playing some music and having some good food." Like the other co-founders of AM:PM.RC, Clement's creative background is integral to supporting the culture of AM:PM.
Head to the next AM:PM run if you want to see what the fuss is about. By the way, it's free (OBVIOUSLY).

Hemorrhoids can be an embarrassing thing to talk about, but many people need to have access to proper information to prevent their condition from getting worse. This article offers some tips and advice for anyone going through the painful ailment of hemorrhoids.
Practicing thorough bathroom hygiene habits decrease your chances of getting external hemorrhoids. Use soft toilet paper that does not leave paper or residue behind, and use moist wipes after every bowel movement.
Good hydration is important for anyone who tends to suffer from hemorrhoids. Drinking plenty of water each day softens your stool naturally. Avoid both alcohol and caffeine to avoid dehydration.
A portable, donut-style cushion may seem like a silly accessory, but it can increase your comfort in situations where you must sit. You might feel a bit shy about using your special cushion at work, but you should definitely use it in your car and in your chair at home. It will bring you a lot of relief.
Natural remedies can work just as well as expensive treatments. Take a sitz bath in warm water for a few minutes, particularly after you move your bowels. Even though hemorrhoids can be really itchy at times, you should not scratch them, this could aggravate the problem. If you need some relief, soak cotton pads in witch hazel and place them on the hemorrhoids. Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water, and eat foods that are high in fiber. This will prevent you from needing to strain during your bowel movements.
Lifting heavy objects can be a factor in the development of hemorrhoids. The strain which it causes is similar to that of straining to pass a bowel movement. Avoid heavy lifting completely if you have major problems with hemorrhoids.
You should not rely on using laxatives for long periods of time to deal with constipation, especially if you have hemorrhoids. This kind of medication will only help you on a short term basis. If you have recurring issues with your bowel movements, think about changing your diet.
In order to make stool softer, consume foods that have lots of fiber and be sure to drink plenty of water. Softening your stool is important because it will cause less strain when you are having a bowel movement, which will relieve some of the pain that is associated with hemorrhoids. There are many different foods you can try here. Nuts and seeds, corn, grapes, watermelon and many other food sources will help soften your stool. Some vegetables are high in fiber and they are a natural choice also for stool softening. These include okra and cabbage. Drink enough water during the day to boost the effects.
Talk to your doctor to make sure it is hemorrhoids. Having stools that are bloody or bleeding in the rectum could mean you have life-threatening illnesses, such as cancer. Move forward by having a doctor diagnose the condition. If you do have hemorrhoids, then your doctor can prescribe to you the best treatment for you to proceed with.
Make sure you drink plenty of water. This is a great natural remedy for hemorrhoids. Water is an effective weapon against constipation, a primary cause of hemorrhoids. Additionally, your body will be internally cleansed. Set a target of ten glasses of water per day for best results.
You have learned a lot of valuable information on hemorrhoids. Put it to good use to alleviate your symptoms or help someone you know. If you use these tips and follow your doctor's recommendations, you can avoid or treat hemorrhoids.

With a plan in place, I arm myself with my favourite analog tools; a fine-liner, highlighter and set of Copic design pens to embark on a creative design exploration. Inspiration at this phase of the process can come from so many sources – benchmark digital tech, books, games, people and pretty much anything else you can think of. The key is to sketch, prototype, ideate, filter and quickly refine brilliant concepts that can be shaped in the design stage of the process.
Ideation is a critical component of the design process. Having laid firm foundations for the project this is where creativity, fun and innovative thinking take over. The goal of my ideation phase is to better understand how I might solve the problem, form a strategy and an executable plan that can deliver an innovative solution into the market place. This can be a solo effort but I find collaborative workshops can foster the best results. Whiteboards, games, scrap paper, post-its and open minds all combine to connect the dots and start shaping the design solution.
As a designer I sketch almost every day – On walls, in notebooks, on post-its or random scraps of paper. It stops me from getting caught up in the technology, and instead focuses me on the best possible solution, scribbling freely to take risks that I might not otherwise take. It's about getting ideas out, reviewing those ideas and documenting them, not about creating a work of art. I use just enough fidelity to convey the idea effectively and can further develop my sketches into designs or paper prototypes.
In an iterative approach to design, rapid prototyping generates feedback early and often in the process, improving the final design and reducing the need for changes during development. My rapid prototypes range from paper sketches to Axure html prototypes that look and function like the product. Prototyping allows me to experiment with multiple approaches and ideas, it facilitates discussion through visuals instead of words, it ensures that everyone shares a common understanding, and it reduces risk by identifying issues early, reducing cost and leading to a better design solution.

Rise of the Frankencam
When I was a child, a friend of my dad's, a boxing photographer named Ed, one of the cigar-chomping bulldogs you saw in the movies resting the beds of their Speed Graphic's on the canvas, gave me one of his old cameras, a Burke and James 4×5 Speed Press. I used it as a camera and, by mounting it on a stand that my father rigged up, a darkroom enlarger. You could switch out its lenses, lens boards and backs for different optics and film sizes. Ed had also "hacked" it, literally, with a hack saw and soldering iron, adding his own levers so he could feel the focus and f-stops without taking his eye off of the action in the ring.
Now, after decades of subservience to the lords of Nikon and Canon, who locked us into their predictable products as surely as MacDonalds imprinted our DNAs with Big Macs, the serfs have crashed the gate of the castle: cameras are again hackable.
Photo buffs and professionals alike are hacking the firmware, the computer programs that control their Canons, Nikons and Panasonics, to do extraordinary things. Nowhere has this been more successful than with Panasonic Lumixes. In 2010, a Russian named Vitaliy Kiselev hacked the Panasonic Lumix GH1 to make it switchable to international video formats, use cheaper third-party batteries and make the video quality much much better, rivaling cameras costing ten times as much. Kiselev offered his hack for free, and in the spirit of the open source software community that gave us the makings of Google Android and much of the important software on the web, camera nerds and photographers took the Kiselev hacks and made them even better.
I bought a GH1 and 2010 and tried to hack it. It didn't work. Panasonic, without comment, locked out out intruders, understandable in part because they didn't want punters who screwed up the hacks and "bricked" their cameras (made them as useful for photography as a brick) to send them back on warranty. I was stuck for months with a very good but not brilliant camera. But Kisselev came back swinging, breaking the Panasonic code and hacking Panasonic's new model, the GH2, which I also bought. The new hacks are named Lenin and Stalin (Putin may have to wait). Now I own two brilliant performers, today selling for less that US$1000 with lens. Some say, with data rates in excess of 100 megabits per second (normal consumer cameras run at about 17) this little-camera-that-could now approaches the quality of the Red cameras that shoot major feature films. Hackers have added time lapse and fast motion and an ISO speed of 12,800, useful for Noir-style nightime photography. Yes it is a bit grainy, but not so much more than my old film fave Tri-X, which was only rated at 400. In the past few months I have used my GH2 to shoot two short documentaries and a TV commercial that aired worldwide, not to mention lots of still photos, sometimes under impossible lighting conditions.
Photography has gone from the optical-chemical model to the light-digital model, what is called computational photography where the potions are mixed on computers instead of large vats. A new camera called the Lytro, which looks like an oversized lipstick case, has no settings and no focus adjustments. In fact you can change the focus to, say, blur out something in the background after you have taken the picture. It does so by capturing an entire "light field," "the light traveling in every direction through every point in space." I don't pretend to understand what this means, but translating "light field" information into pictures involves processing power that not long ago only possible on a supercomputer. Now it is smaller than your pinkie. Film and standard digital cameras cannot record a light field
For the past couple of years, HDR or high dynamic range photography has been the rage. A camera takes several pictures and software sifts through their pixels to find the best ones and combine them to create a picture that can show details in bright areas as well as shadows. HDR is now included with the iPhone and available for Android.
MIT has gone further, experimenting with a camera that shoots movies at a trillion frames a second. At that speed it can slow down a laser beam that clips along at one foot per nanosecond so you can actually see it move. Best for home movies of a REAL hypeactive child.
They are also working on lensless cameras that can peep around corners through the use of laser beams. The thought of that feature on a mobile phone is as spooky as anything from the pen of Mary Shelley.
"So much has been done, exclaimed the soul of Frankenstein-more, far more, will I achieve; treading in the steps already marked, I will pioneer a new way, explore unknown powers, and unfold to the world the deepest mysteries of creation." – Victor Frankenstein

I started reading David Foster Wallace's book Infinite Jest the other day.
Let me go back...
I have never seen this book in a physical form. I've only looked at it on Amazon and Goodreads. Our library doesn't have a copy, so I requested one through inter-library loan. When the email comes to tell me it's in, I go pick it up. HOLY JESUS! THIS THING IS A DOOR STOP! Seriously...it's 1079 pages. Some of the footnotes have their own footnotes. And it's fiction, for crying out loud.
This book, seriously, people, is going to take me MONTHS to get through. And I'm a pretty fast reader! But here's the thing...some chapters are margin-to-margin with no dialogue for ten pages...and they're BIG pages with small text. This is the book I've been training for all my life! Bring it on.
So far, it's interesting, but not compelling. There's a lot of talk of drugs. There are chapters with characters I haven't identified yet, characters that seemingly don't have names. And so I'm trying to piece it together...but...I'm just gonna keep lugging along until I finish it.
Has anyone read it?
More bubble less trouble.

Hi I want to use the calculation field - when i add the calculator it does not have % as i want to calculated the % of a number e.g 400*4%=16 for example
can you advise if i can do this
- JotForm SupportjonathanAnswered on July 23, 2016 at 04:29 AM
You are right. The % sign in the Calculator widget seems to be not working properly.
To calculate % for now, you have to use real value number.
I have forwarded this thread to our higher team suppport so they can check the Calculator widget and hopefully fixed immediately the % function.
We will notify you here once we have fixed it.
- JotForm SupportTitusNAnswered on August 03, 2016 at 03:11 AM
We've fixed it. You can calculate with percentage values.
Please check - let us know.

What a fantastic day organised by Guy.
Thanks to Ab Agri (ABN) for the use of a vehicle and to Mark for organising the LGV element of this day. Thanks also to Tim who not only provided a vehicle and trailer but also his motorhome, which was, at times, a welcome relief from the very cold wind.
The day covered manoeuvring techniques, zones of visibility and in vehicle technologies. Everyone had an opportunity to carry out manoeuvres and discuss what could be seen and what could not in certain situations. It gave us first hand insight into what some drivers of LGV's are faced with every day.

SHAREit – Connect & Transfer
SHAREit – Connect and Transfer is an app to transfer files from one device to another much faster than via Bluetooth or regular WiFi.
With the wide range of devices available nowadays (PC, Mac, smartphones, tablets…) it's common to take our work from one to another depending on our location. On many occasions, we can also find ourselves in the need to transfer large files between all these devices.
We usually search for solutions that have to do with Bluetooth connections, cables or apps that share the same WiFi network, with all the inherent problems that they come along with, mainly the necessity to have both devices very nearby.
What is SHAREit?
It's an application with which we can transfer files between devices at great speed without being connected to the same network, without cables, and without Bluetooth, even large-sized files. We can use SHAREit on our Android by downloading the corresponding APK and we won't have any trouble if we want to use it with other devices, whether Windows, macOS, iPhone or iPad.
Transfer files between devices, at full speed and without compatibility problems.
Main features and functions
- Transfer files from Android to other platforms, such as Android, iOS or Windows (7, 8, 8.1 and 10).
- Transfer photos, videos, music, installed applications, SMS text messages, MMS messages, and videos.
- Control PowerPoint slideshows from your phone.
- CLONEit function to copy all the phone's contents to another terminal with just one click.
- Up to 200 times faster than a Bluetooth connection.
- Simple control interface.
How does it work and how to use the app?
This app works by creating its own network from our smartphone to which we can connect other devices provided that they're not too far away. Both devices have to authorize the data transfer, to send and receive files and information.
If you want to know how to send a file, just follow these simple steps:
- Step 1: install the app on all the devices on which the transfer is going to take place.
- Step 2: send the data from the source device and search among its folders or drag them straight to the app.
- Step 3: accept the transfer on the receiving device.
- Step 4: after a tiny analysis you'll see the source files on the receiving computer, and you'll only have to select them by clicking on them.
All in all, an application with plenty of different uses to improve your productivity, from the transmission of files to saving backups of the information on your device.Requirements and additional information:
- Minimum operating system requirements: Android 4.1.
With SHAREit – Connect and Transfer you easily send files between two devices, regardless of the OS they run. That means your files send from your Android to an iPhone, iPad, and even onto a Windows PC. Otherwise, create groups of users so you can transfer any file to several people at once.
Share anything from more usual file formats (photos, videos, MP3s) onto less common file formats like address books, APKs, or any other file type stored on your smartphone.
SHAREit – Connect and Transfer is an app for speedy transfers between all kinds of devices. The only thing is: you have to install this app on both ends. Meaning, both the receiving and sending smartphone or tablet must have SHAREit running in order for transfers to complete.

Keyshia Cole Announces Pregnancy
Keyshia Cole took to social media to tell her fans she is expecting a baby with boyfriend Niko Khale. Oddly enough, the R&B singer posted the photo below with hashtags #PreggoInMyFashionNovaFit and #CongradulationsAreInOrder but then set her profile to private.
Maybe Keyshia was getting heat again about the age difference between her (36 years-old) and her 22 year-old boyfriend. We'll keep you posted.

MF: I try to homebrew a few beer batches a year, but want to try something different like a lager. Is the process much different?
3PS: Ahhhh, lager. A word that many people are familiar with, but that is often tossed around as a catch-all synonym to beer or ale. I can understand how the term gained this watered-down definition, as until the onset of the "craft beer revolution," just about every commercially available beer in the US was in fact, a lager. Budweiser, Miller Lite, Narragansett, Schlitz, Schaffer, and even America's oldest brewery Yuengling - all lagers.
To make a lager, you must first understand what lager means and what a lager is. Let's handle the definition first. A lager is a beer that is brewed with a particular strain of yeast (Saccharomyces pastorianus) that is both fermented and conditioned (stored) at low temperatures. There are many small differences between ale and lager, but the biggest, most glaring difference is this - lagers love cold temps!
If you have been to the homebrew store and done any kit shopping, or even put your own recipe together, and get to the part where you pick out a yeast, you will notice there are TONS of ale recipes and yeast strains to choose from and maybe only one or two lager yeasts and probably as many kits available. The truth of the matter is it is just harder to make a lager on a standard homebrew setup and most home brewers park themselves comfortably in the vast possibilities and relative ease of brewing ales. To be honest, a lot of commercial brewers do this too, because as Tom Bull of Dirigo Brewing Company in Biddeford (a brewery that SPECIALIZES in lager) says, "The most critical ingredients after raw ingredients are time and temperature, and the key to making good lager is treating time and temperature as essential components to the recipe."
"Alright, Tim. You've lectured enough but answer the damn question? How do we make a lager at home?!" Cool your jets, reader! I suppose I could give you a direct answer like "Buy a mini-fridge and a secondary temperature controller and use that as your fermentation chamber so you can dial in your ferment and conditioning temps." I could do that, and you could go that route and you would be well on your way to making crisp, delicious lagers at home.
Or, I could give you a short list of things to keep in mind, and you, intrepid home brewer, can use your wit and cunning to solve these problems and provide your beer the proper fermenting environment in a way that is unique to you!
Here is my "Making Lager at Home" cheat sheet:
- 1. Start simple. Make a beer that isn't too high in alcohol or too bulked up with dark/modified malts. Lager yeast can be fussy, so start out with simple recipes that provide your yeast with plenty of ready to ferment sugar.
- 2. Ease into the cold. While it is important to keep your ferment temperature low, you may find that pitching (adding) yeast to a 55-degree wort leads to a very slow start to your ferment. Pitch around 65 degrees and once you begin to see activity, slowly bring the beer down into the high 50s. This can be achieved by pitching the yeast with the beer in a warm room and then moving the beer into the basement after 12-24 hours. Just keep an eye on the ambient room temperature and be on the lookout for signs of active fermentation.
- 3. Be patient. Your beer may finish fermenting in about 4-6 days, but that does not at all mean you are ready to move on to bottling/kegging. As our friend Tom Bull said, Time is essential to the process, and the key to any good lager is an extended period of time hanging out near 35 degrees post-ferment. This can be for 2-6 weeks depending on the recipe, but you will know when the beer is ready by tasting it along the way. This extended aging will help smooth out some of the rougher flavors produced by the yeast during its fermentation and will give the beer time to clear up, or brighten.
- 4. Don't go crazy with hops. While IPL (India Pale Lagers) have become a thing recently, I implore you not to make a hopped-up lager as your first lager. Lagers are celebrated for their nuanced flavors, and a heavy hand with the hops will negate all the work you did to bring those nuanced flavors out from the malts and the yeast. Save the hops for your next ale brew day and keep the lager crisp!
My final piece of advice is this: chill out! Seriously, act like a lager and chill. Lots can go wrong when trying something for the first time in your brewery, but the best thing to do is relax and let the beer do its thing. If you can't control the temp as much as you would like, don't worry about it! You'll still end up with something pretty tasty in the end. Don't like the way it tastes after two weeks? Wait two more! Lagers develop a little more slowly than your average beer, but I think you'll find they are always worth the wait!

Question 21: A man has two wives; one of them is an employee who receives a monthly salary, which she spends as she wishes without giving him any of it. He pays the expenses of the house, such as electricity and telephone bills. She does not help him with any part of her salary. When she buys a piece of cloth, it is he who pays the dressmaker's fees. The other wife is a housewife. She does not have a source of income, but she may get some money from her daughters who are employees. However, it is not enough to fulfill all her needs. The husband pays for the electricity and telephone bills.
If he gives his second wife – the housewife – some money to fulfill her needs,does he have to give the other wife the same amount in order to observe equity between them? Does he have to give something to the working wife every time he gives something to his wife who does not work?
We need your advice to tell him. May Allaah grant you success in doing good! May Allaah safeguard you!
Answer: The husband has to be observe equity between his wives with regard to supporting them, providing them with clothing, housing, gifts, spending the nights with them, and other such material rights. It is not permissible for him to give one of them something without giving anything to the other unless she accepts this willingly... read more here.

Most of us these days know the name Gaia from James Lovelock's theory of the same name. Later I will be talking about modern interpretations and thoughts about the earth. For now let us focus on Gaia in her ancient form.
There are ancient tales of Gaia Eurusternos, which means the broad-chested earth. She was rarely worshiped alone and when she was worshiped it was usually with Demeter. There were no great temples or festivals dedicated to her. Nevertheless, She is the primordial grandmamma of the classical Greek Gods. She's like one of those amazing great-grandmothers who had 13 children in a one-room house and raised them all to be doctors and lawyers. Except her kids ran the cosmos until their kids kicked their asses and shoved them into the darkest underworld known as Tartarus. It's a thing. Sometimes I think the Greek deities have a bit of a gangster feel.
Lineage is Important to Understand Her
First, out of her own self she bore Ouranos, also known as Uranus, who is the sky. Next she gives birth to Pontus, the sea, and then to ourea, the hills.
This is significant. We know that the Indo-Europeans, from which the Greeks descended, saw the world divided into threes. One of their favorite threes was Land, Sky, and Sea. We see this over and over again in the cosmologies of all the various cultures that emerged from that group. So what we are saying, is that all by herself, Gaia gives birth to everything that is. She is truly an all-mother, from within a classically IE symbolism. This is significant because some people question whether or not the Earth Mother is an essentially IE goddess. We see clearly in this example that she is.
So Many Children…
So after she creates the world all by herself, then she gets it on with her son, Ouranos and they have a bunch of children:Oceanus, Coeus, Crius, Hyperion and Iapetus, Theia and Rhea, Themis and Mnemosyne, gold-crowned Phoebe and lovely Tethys. After them was born Cronos.
Then by her son Pontus, Gaia bore the sea-deities Nereus, Thaumas, Phorcys, Ceto, and Eurybia.
I told you she had a lot of kids.
She also gave birth to the Cyclopes and the Hekatonkheires. Those are the one eyed giants and the one hundred handed giants that you will no doubt be familiar with from Percy Jackson. Unlike the stories told in Percy Jackson, she doesn't seem to be the enemy of anyone, except maybe her son/husband who stuffs their children back into the womb of Gaia by hiding them underground and causing her great pain. She is the one who tells Cronos how to set them free, by killing his own father. Myths are violent, aren't they? She gives Time himself a sickle and he cuts off Sky Father's genitals. From the blood various deities are born, including Aphrodite, making her the oldest Olympian. So, basically Gaia was forced to choose to protect her kids and betray her husband … who was also her kid, but incest is also a thing with Gods.
Gaia was one tough broad, broad-chested or not.
So, where does that leave us then, as modern pagans? Death and dismemberment is pretty harsh. The thing is, in many ways the story of the Greek gods is a story of generations. The first generation is the most violent. Sometimes I imagine this story as the story of the angry sky and boiling seas of the beginning of our Earth. I imagine her giving birth to the very beginnings of life, the bacteria and the single celled protozoa. We live in a gentle earth, covered and protected by the atmosphere, fed by countless millennia of stone worn down into soil and sun translated by seed into stem and leaf. The earth and sky have not always been gentle or kind. I live in gratitude for this place we have. Maybe someday there will be humans on other planets and we will have to learn their names and pour offerings to them. But for now, she's what we've got.
And, thusly ends the story of Gaia.

Shortcut for flip stem direction?
Is there a keyboard shortcut to flip a step up/down? It is a real pain having to pick up the mouse, right-click and select from the menu every time I want to do this.

Oncolive is a strategic multi-disciplinary collaboration between Alessandro Esposito (biophysicist expert in biochemical imaging technologies), Maria Alcolea (cell biologist expert in animal and organ culture models of carcinogenesis) and Philip Greulich (physicist expert in biophysical and computational modelling). OncoLive, funded by the CRUK in early 2019, will soon recruit two post-doctoral scientists.
Alessandro Esposito is recognized for his achievements in developing innovative biochemical imaging technologies (e.g., the first high-throughput and CMOS-based FLIMs and theoretical work on biochemical imaging). In 2009, Alessandro was awarded an EPSRC LSI fellowship, enabling him to establish a biophotonics laboratory within a uniquely inter-disciplinary environment. Alessandro has then established ultra-fast FLIM techniques, multiplexing biochemical platforms, and an optogenetic laboratory, including plasmids for expression of FRET sensors and optogenetic control of signaling. Alessandro's most recent biological applications include the study of non-genetic heterogeneity in checkpoint maintenance, in the biochemical networks controlling apoptosis, and the ultrastructural characterization of DNA damage repair foci.
Visits Alessandro's webpage for more information.
Maria Alcolea is a Cell Biologist who has focused on understanding the behaviour of stem and progenitor cells using the epithelium of the mouse oesophagus as a model. Using genetic labelling she has been able to track individual cells in vivo in order to define the basic rules underlying cell fate. By implementing this lineage tracing technique, her work has revealed how the cell behaviour is altered in response to tissue challenges like injury and early tumorigenesis. Maria has recently adapted 3D organ culture system, recapitulating the behaviour of epithelial cells in vitro. The peculiarity of this 3D system is that epithelial cells easily reconstruct the epithelial architecture in vitro, offering a more physiological model suited to study oesophageal tumorigenesis when compared to the traditional usage of 2D monolayer cultures. Maria currently holds a Wellcome Trust/Royal Society Sir Henry Dale Fellowship. Investigating the cellular and molecular mechanisms governing this changes in epithelial cell dynamics, and the potential implications for early cancer development represent Maria's main interests. Her current work presents a particular emphasis in understanding the potential contribution of surrounding neighbour cells in this process.
Visits Maria's webpage for more information.
Philip Greulich's research is in mathematical modelling of biological systems. My current focus is on stochastic modelling of cell dynamics and interactions in multi-cellular environments. To understand the cellular dynamics (e.g. proliferation,differentiation, and mobility), I follow principles of statistical physics, analysing the collective behaviour of cells and resulting emergent phenomena such as pattern formation, ordering, and phase transitions. My approach is data-driven; by comparison of mathematical models and experimental data through Bayesian methods, I infer the underlying biological principles of multicellular systems in diseases, such as cell proliferation/differentiation in cancer.

Staying Energized While Using Medical Marijuana: It's All in the Strain
Posted by Marijuana Doctors on 12/09/2016 in Strains
Updated on May 6, 2019. Medical content reviewed by Dr. Joseph Rosado, MD, M.B.A, Chief Medical Officer
One of the most frustrating symptoms of living with a health condition is fatigue. Fatigue is generally described as a state of mental and physical tiredness that can inhibit your ability to go about your daily life. With physical fatigue, a person finds it physically hard to do the things they normally do or used to do, for example, climbing stairs. With mental fatigue, a person finds it harder to concentrate on things and stay on task. The person may feel sleepy, or have difficulty staying awake while working. Common symptoms of fatigue include:
- Difficulty remembering things or being able to concentrate
- Extreme exhaustion after relatively little physical or mental exertion
- Getting a lot of sleep, but not feeling refreshed
- Feeling like your muscles are heavy
- Body aches and pains all over
- Sore throat and lymph nodes
- Being dizzy, fainting or having trouble keeping your balance
- Gastrointestinal disorders
- Abnormal amounts of sweating and body temperature
- Visual disturbances
- Depression, anxiety or other mood problems
Cannabis is widely used to treat insomnia by helping patients get to sleep faster and maintain sleep for longer. It's also been shown to help alleviate fatigue in some people with cancer and other conditions, and to promote wakefulness.
Many people wrongfully associate marijuana use with a lack of motivation and the destruction of dopamine — your body's happiness receptors — over time. When used responsibly, marijuana can be an extremely helpful aid for you to either rest or stay awake.
So, how does cannabis aid patients in both sleeping and fighting fatigue? Experts say it depends on the strain.
Choose Your Strain Wisely
Not all strains of marijuana are created equal. Some strains of marijuana are known to be uplifting or euphoric, while others are better-known for their calming and sedative effects. You might think that if you're tired, choosing a strain with a sedative effect would be the right option — but that's not always true for everyone.
Uplifting varieties are best suited for people who are expected to get up and do something right away, while calming strains are more helpful for people who need a boost in energy levels.
Strains To Fight Fatigue
Generally, if you want to boost your energy, it would serve you well to consider one that's sativa-dominant. Strains with higher levels of Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) act more like a sedative, which can of course help you get much-needed sleep, while strains with higher levels of cannabidiol (CBD) seem to have alerting properties. There are many strains of marijuana that anecdotally boost energy and productivity. Here's are some to consider and ask your practitioner about.
- Amnesia Haze. With a THC range of up to 22%, the CBD range in this strain is slightly less than 1%. Users have described the effects as creative, giggly, happy and euphoric, and the aroma is described as citrusy, earthy, sweet and tangy.
- Jack Herer. The THC range for Jack Herer is between 17% and 24%, and users have described the effects of the strain as cerebral, creative, energized, happy and euphoric. Users also report experiencing a body buzz. The aroma is earthy and herbal lemon.
- Sour Diesel. With a THC range of 12% to 24%, users have described the effects as energized, creative, happy and euphoric. The aroma is described as candy-like, musky and sweet.
- Cannatonic. This strain is bred to have lower THC levels, which fall between 7% and 14% or even lower, to reduce the psychoactive effect. The CBD range, on the other hand, falls between 17% and 23.4%. Users have described the effects as calming, happy, focused and euphoric.
- Green Candy. The THC range is about 18%, and people who use green candy describe the effects as calming, cerebral and happy. The aromas associated with this strain include earthy, minty, pine and sweet candy.
- Raspberry Cough. The THC range of raspberry cough is between 15% and 24%, and users report feeling alert, energized, clear-headed and even introspective after using this strain. The aromas associated with this strain include nutty, sweet, berry and earthy.
- Blue Dream. The THC range for Blue Dream is between 17% and 24%, and users describe the effects of this strain as creative, calming, happy and euphoric. As for aroma, it's described as berry, earthy, sweet and vanilla.
- Purple Trainwreck. The THC range for purple trainwreck is approximately 18%, and users describe the effects of this strain as creative, relaxed, happy and euphoric.
- Lemon Haze. The THC range for this strain is about 17%, and users describe their experience with lemon haze as uplifting, relaxed, euphoric and happy. The aroma is unsurprisingly lemony.

Chez Yvonne, Strasbourg, France
We were invited in this restaurant for dinner on Saturday. A lot of famous people came here before and you can see all of them on the stairs' walls. I read a lot of good things about this place on the Internet and was eager to see it for myself!
We were taken to the 1st floor, the decoration is pretty typical and cute (look at those chairs!), you're immediately at east and feel at home. No high chair was offered for our baby but we were on a table with benches so we worked with that (repeating 12 zillions times « sit on your bum, please », as usual).
I started with a crémant d'alsace, a sparkly white wine deliciously addictive. Seriously, I could have drink a whole bottle but you know… Balance! My husband drank a beer and was very pleased. The waitress brought us head terrine (Presskopf) to snack on.
I read everywhere that the goose foie gras was a MUST try so I ordered that! It did not disappoint, smooth as butter, tasty, salty. Oh so good.
My husband ordered a munster filled pastry. WHAT? Yes. Served with a well seasoned salad. It was crazy, oozing cheese in flaky dough. So good.
My husband ordered cockerel in Riesling wine and I, of course, ate with him. It was served with spätzle. The meat was tender, tasty, the sauce goes really well with the spätzle and the mushroom were so good.
I ordered the choucroute. Basically sauerkraut with different meat. It was the best I've ever had and I'm not even kidding. The sauerkraut had a delicate taste, it was tangy and a little sweet. It was a gigantic plate ! Everything was just perfect. And if you read my restaurants' reviews in the past, you know I'm not always that nice because if it's good I tell it but if it's bad I tell it too!
I still had room for dessert. I had a kougelhopf ice-cream with gewürztraminer marc. It looked good! But my fairly newbie palate was not thrilled. The alcohol was so so strong. The ice cream makes it a little better but really too strong for me!
Then my husband had a parfait with kirch (cherry alcohol), it was nice, sweet and not too strong!
I'd really recommend this restaurant if you want to try some local food. You eat well, it is not too pricey and the waitresses are the nicest, a big hit!

Staff and wire reports
The Obama administration said Friday it is requiring companies that drill for oil and natural gas on federal lands to disclose chemicals used in hydraulic fracturing operations, a drilling technique that has sparked an ongoing boom in natural gas production across the country.
A rule to take effect in June also updates requirements for well construction and disposal of water and other fluids used in fracking, as the drilling method is more commonly known.
The rule has been under consideration for more than three years, drawing criticism from the oil and gas industry and environmental groups alike. The industry fears federal regulation could duplicate efforts by states and hinder the drilling boom, while some environmental groups worry that lenient rules could allow unsafe drilling techniques to pollute groundwater.
There are no fracking wells on federal lands in Mississippi, according to Howard Leach, general counsel for the Mississippi Oil and Gas Board.
… we'd like to ask for your support. More people are reading the Mississippi Business Journal than ever before, but advertising revenues for all conventional media are falling fast. Unlike many, we do not use a pay wall, because we want to continue providing Mississippi's most comprehensive business news each and every day. But that takes time, money and hard work.

Jane's Review
We used this company as developers for a website that we were building. To say they were a disappointment is an understatement. They misguided us on what type of website to build, took advantage of billable hours, and the work that they actually did was sub-par. We have another company just undoing the work that Creatuity did. Supposedly, they're under new management now; however, when we bumped into the new head of sales at a recent trade show and discussed our feelings toward the company, he assured me that he's going to make things right for us and I can expect a call within a few days--it's a few weeks later now and, still, nothing. You can ignore this review if you choose but we stopped working with this company about 3 years ago and I STILL took the time to write this to protect others from having the same experience that we did...
