When Disappointment Is The First Thing You Wake Up To
I woke up this morning to what should not feel disappointing, but I cannot help feeling disappointed and demotivated. There is no logical reason why I should feel disappointed by what happened, as a matter of fact, I should see it as an opportunity and not a disappointment. But logic is one thing, and emotions are completely something else.
As a matter of fact, I feel low and demotivated.
Tapping For The Emotion Of Disappointment
So I tap (please get your EFT How-to for You if you are unfamiliar with tapping)…
Starting Level of disappointment: 7.5 out of 10. I feel like crying, as I feel my day has been ruined and feel demotivated to carry on.
Setup; "Even though I have this disappointment and feel like crying, I deeply love and accept myself".
Reminder: "This disappointment".
The disappointment went down to 5.5 out of 10, and what came up is an overwhelming feeling of being disrespected, even though that makes absolutely no logical sense whatsoever, as logic tells me that I have not been disrespected at all.
Setup; "Even though I feel disrespected, I deeply love and accept myself".
Reminder: "Disrespected".
The disrespected feeling was off the scale. Then it went down to a four, then a one. But it is stubborn at 1, because I thought of 2 good reasons why i should feel disrespected, and they make perfect logical sense. So I am now tapping on these reasons, to release the negative emotion. As I tap, I am getting a better perspective, and I am now formulating a course of action.
As the disrespected feeling goes down to a zero, I return to the feeling of disappointment. It is a 4 out of 10.
Setup; "Even though I have this disappointment and feel demotivated, I deeply love and accept myself".
Reminder: "This disappointment. This demotivation".
Zero. Gone!
Now, after an hour of tapping and releasing, I take a rest. I feel so relieved!
EFT Tapping Blog – Why I Release Negative Emotions
Any unhappy emotions, such as disappointment, can adversely affect our health. I walk the talk and ensure that any negative emotions are released asap, as my state of health is too potentially fragile for me to hold onto negative emotions. By releasing these, my body is kept in a state where it has the best chance of optimal health. Please go back to around 2005 on this personal healing blog to get to the worst postings (when I was often bed-ridden, unable to breathe enough to get out of bed), if you are looking for how to tap for those really bad days of health.

I visited the Petronas Twin Towers on my second day in Kuala Lumpur (KL). Based on my Lonely Planet pocket handbook, it was recommended that I make reservations at least a week in advance so I would not have to wait in a long queue. I made them 3 days in advance and there were more than enough time slots available during the day. The night slots were pretty almost gone.
Fortunately I was staying at the Holiday Inn Express in the city center. I was close enough to walk over to the towers. The walk was not short but worth it. There is a skywalk that links most major buildings together so the walk was in AC and through the KLCC Convention Center and Mall. So it was very scenic although indoors.
I left the hotel around 3:35 PM and arrived at the towers 15 minutes prior to my queue start time of 4:15 PM so they let me enter with the 4:00 PM queue. The attendants scanned my ticket on my phone. I then entered the security scanner for my bag and person. Those with selfie sticks and/or tripods had to leave them at the door to retrieve upon their exit. I do not recall any other restrictions.
The tour started with a video overview of what floors we would traverse. After the video we entered a large elevator. The first stop was floor 41, the Sky Bridge. The Sky Bridge was built by a Japanese builder along with one of the Towers. The 2nd Tower was built by a Korean builder. The entire structure took about 7.5 years to complete.
After about 15 minutes on floor 41, we were instructed to queue up for the elevator again for our next stop. We were the "green" queue. We were given green badges before we entered the elevators.
Next stop, floor 86. We were in the Tower farthest from the KL Tower.
After the 86th floor, we were taken back down. We returned our green queue badges and were given the opportunity to purchase any photos taken by their photographers and items from the gift shop. I purchased the photo below for 75 MYR as a digital photo. That price also included a second digital photo and a printed photo.
I don't usually climb towers for views so I decided to try something new. Glad I did because I enjoyed the experience.

Holden Astra: A round of applause for Astra
Search Driven for vehicles for sale
Kiwis are in for a treat when the European Car Of The Year arrives here
Holden New Zealand is hoping its all-new Astra hatchback will emulate the five-door's success in Europe when it goes on sale here early next year.
The Astra was launched in the Northern Hemisphere a year ago and was named 2016 European Car of the Year.
It fought off the Volvo XC-90, BMW 7 Series, Audi A4, Jaguar XE, Mazda MX-5 and Skoda Superb to win the title.
Holden NZ will be hoping that the Astra receives such fanfare here, especially as the company goes through a major overhaul with the demise of Australian manufacturing next year. Instead it is building its line-up with products from its Opel and General Motors parent companies.
By 2020, Holden NZ will have a line-up of 24 new vehicles, with the company recently announcing that the Aussie-built Commodore will be replaced with the Europe-designed Insignia large sedan.
It has already revealed the facelift Colorado with the Captiva 7 replacement, Trailblazer, on sale now.
On December 1, Holden NZ will be launching the facelift Trax small SUV and the small Barina hatchback before welcoming the Astra then the Commodore-badges Insignia next year.
Although the European designed, engineered and built Astra comes in a wide array of models and specifications globally, Holden NZ will be announcing our line-up and price range on November 29 with the vehicle on sale here in February, though expect the price to start from the early $30,000.
What we do know is that we'll be getting the 1.4- and 1.6-litre petrol version of Astra with a base model R, stepping up to the RS and then the specced up RS-V.
The first "Astra" was the Opel Kadett, which was launched in 1936, and the German hatchback was rebadged Astra in 1991 with a total of 24 million sold.
The all-new Astra's length is reduced by 50mm and the height is 25mm less while instead there is an increase in rear legroom by 35mm and the driver has 22mm more headroom. It has also "lost" 160kg from the previous model.
In New Zealand, the five-door hatch will debut with a range of three new trim levels, consisting of an entry R specification, a more powerful and tech-laden RS and a range-topping RS-V.
The R gets the 1.4-litre Ecotec Turbo with a choice of six-speed manual or auto transmissions (110kW/240Nm on auto, 245Nm with manual), or a more powerful 1.6-litre Ecotec Turbo available on Astra RS and Astra RS-V, delivering 147kW/300Nm.
But Holden New Zealand's managing director, Kristian Aquilina, said the percentage of manuals sold here would be small.
The R sits on 17-inch alloys and gets rear park assist and rear camera as standard, plus the new version of MyLink that includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, while customers can add such features as lane keep assist and city stop.
The RS model gains over the entry model such features as advanced park assist (to help parallel park), plus city stop, lane keep assist, forward collision alert and front park assist.
The top spec RS-V will sit on 18-inch alloys plus have a satellite navigation system, heated leather seats and remote engine start while adaptive cruise control can be added.
At the global launch last year, the Opel-badged Astras on the test drive in Slovakia came with the Europe-specific technology such as OnStar connectivity and service assistance that you can call from inside your vehicle and get help with such features as direction.
The Opel spec also had Wi-Fi available in the car with seven devices connected to it plus Opel Eye -- a front camera with operates traffic sign assist (detecting the speed and displaying it in your dash).
Whereas we won't get that technology, we will get the Opel IntelliLux LED matrix headlights.
The matrix-style headlights are found in such vehicles as the Audi A8 and TT, plus Mercedes-Benz's E-Class, but the Astra is its first non-premium hatch.
It works impressively, as demonstrated during a night-time drive out of Slovakia's capital, Bratislava, to a modern private art gallery, Danubiana, 20km away; and then again on a night drive to the outskirts of Canberra during the Australian launch.
If you keep the lights on full beam, they automatically deactivate some of the LED headlights so the car coming towards you doesn't get your full glare.
They also pick up road signs and illuminate so much that it's like 10 spotlights hitting the sign. The matrix lights also illuminate more the side of the road than normal lights, which is ideal for roads with little to no lighting.
The headlights continuously adapt to your drive to provide optimal lighting without disturbing other vehicles.
Due to high demand for the these lights in Europe, only a few of the initial New Zealand-bound RS-V Astras will get the optional matrix system, but once supply eases up, you can expect a few more Kiwis to tick that option.
The Astra replaces the Cruze hatchback, which is currently on run-out in dealerships, though there is no word on whether there will be an Astra sedan to replace the popular Cruze version.
The Astra five-door hatch makes up 15 to 20 per cent of Holden NZ's sales. According to Aguillina, interest has been building since Driven reported on the global launch of the Astra in Slovakia in October.
Attending the recent Australian launch was GM Europe's chief interior designer and the man behind the look of the Astra, Kurt Beyer.
The direct competitors of the Astra are the Mazda3, Volkswagen Golf and Ford Focus, but design-wise the Astra will compete also with the Peugeot 308 and even base-model BMW 2 Series and Mercedes-Benz A-Class.
Beyer said the company not only took into account customer feedback on the previous model Astra but also inspiration from GM's global design studios.
He said the new Astra was "small and very agile" and that interior had to be "as big as possible".
"The front of the Astra is proud, bold and very dynamic ... and there are graphic elements to make the exterior look bigger," he said.
Beyer's passion, the interior, was upscale with "premium materials" and the company took into account customer comments that the previous model's central console "had too many buttons".
Instead the new Astra has cleaner lines, and yes, fewer buttons.
Also assisting with the new Astra was GM Holden's team in Melbourne, with the hatchback's steering calibrated for Australasian conditions. That including testing in New Zealand, with the vehicle tuned to suit our rougher bitumen. The result is a more responsive feel to the car, and tighter handling.

The American Civil Liberties Union and other organizations are challenging panhandling ordinances in 15 municipalities across Illinois, including Joliet.
Letters demanding repeal of the ordinances are being delivered Tuesday by the ACLU, the Chicago Coalition for the Homeless and the National Law Center on Homelessness and Poverty.
Officials in Chicago, Elgin, Joliet, Moline, Oak Park, Peoria, Rockford, Urbana and more are the recipients.
Diane O'Connor of the Chicago Coalition for the Homeless said panhandling laws unfairly criminalize people experiencing homelessness for exercising their rights.
The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled panhandling is protected by the First Amendment right to free speech.
The letter challenging Chicago's ordinance said shielding listeners from messages disfavored by the state isn't permissible.
The Herald-News looked into the barriers panhandlers face in Joliet in a report earlier this month.
For people who need extra income, panhandling remains an option. But in the city of Joliet, there is no way to panhandle legally. In the city's code of ordinances, Section 2 of Chapter 22 prohibits people from standing "on a highway or street for the purpose of soliciting contributions from the occupant of any vehicle."
The only exception to the ordinance is for registered charitable organizations and statewide fundraising activities. These organizations must fill out an application, then turn it in to the City Clerk's Office.
Pauline Ames, an employee at the office, said an average panhandler's application would be denied.
In 2013, the city of Joliet had a specific panhandling ordinance that outlawed the act. There also is a state statute that prohibits soliciting contributions from highways.
Joliet Police Chief Brian Benton said the city's enforcement is to ensure safety.
"People soliciting or panhandling to pedestrians, ... to the point where they may feel it's harassment [can lead to arrest]," Benton said.
Benton said officers also will cite panhandlers in the roadway.
"We don't want them to get hit by a car or have drivers swerve," Benton said.
• Former Herald-News intern Sydney Czyzon contributed to this report.

December 31, 1929 – April 8, 2019
Mary was born December 31, 1929 in the community of Walkerburn Manitoba, 4 miles from the Saskatchewan border and Duck Mountain Provincial Park. She grew up without her mother with her older Sister Ella and younger Brother Archie. Mary found out years later that her mother had remarried and had 10 children. She lived through the depression, married Frank Lucier 1946 and had six children (5 boys and 1 girl). She moved to Williams Lake in 1975 with 3 of her children in school, as her oldest 2 sons were already situated here. This began a new chapter in her life, met her partner Bill Balestra, travelled lots together until his passing in 2009. She was a great lover of flowers (even interviewed by Mike McCardle of BCTV), her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren, were all a huge part of her life.
She had many friends in Williams Lake and was the Matriarch of our Metis families/movement here, involved in almost all of the Metis functions, made incredible perogies and bannoc for all, even teaching grandchildren to cook. A lot of her "coffee friends" joined us all for our many Metis and family dinners. Holiday celebrations were always full of lots of food, music and stories.
Spring was a very important time of the year for her – flower shopping and new gardens to plant. In lieu of flowers, please plant something in memory of her.
Family left to miss her are: Arnold (Gail), Wayne (Linda), Marlene (Bob), Brian (Shirley), Glen (Lori), many grandchildren and great grandchildren, Sister Ella and Brother Archie, and the LeForte family. Predeceased by: husband Frank, son David, parents Archie Branconnier & Marie Zastre.
Celebration of Life – Saturday, April 20, 2019 at the United Church (basement) Huckvale Place at 3 pm for drop in and a potluck dinner at 5:30.

[NICOLE RAY] So when you're serving a volleyball from the ground, it's really important to toss the ball out in front of you so that you're stepping forward into your serve, giving the ball momentum to go over the net, reaching high so that you're hitting the ball over the net and not into the net and rotating your hips. You start from sideways position, rotating forward, again gathering more momentum. So there are many different options for analyzing video data outside the lab. One specifically that we're using for video tracking is Kinovea. And so, you can trace your position as you're, say, serving a volleyball. And you can go back and review the film and see if you can correct your own performance and achieve the outcome that you want. A lot of volleyball players have shoulder injuries. And a lot of times, that happens when you are swinging for the ball and you drop your elbow. So if you keep your elbow nice and high, you reach high, everything looks great. As soon as you start swinging down to the side, that's where you run into rotator cuff issues. You want to stay on your feet as much as possible, so it's important to shuffle your feet keeping usually your dominant foot out in front, move to the ball, stay under it, and that way, you can lift it up and pass to your target. If there is no hope and you know you're not going to get to the ball in time, then that's when you dive. And you get as close to the ground as you can before you actually lay out on the ground.

The Story of The Bucket Men

The "Bucket men" is an image in my dream. In this dream I saw a group of little people with buckets on their heads gradually descending from the sky. They were chanting, holding clubs and hopping around me. I found myself surrounded by fear, not knowing what to do. In the midst of a panic, I picked up a bucket and put on my head. Suddenly and miraculously, with a bucket covering my face, I could no longer sense the danger ahead. All my fear disappeared, I became very brave. So I joined the march of the bucke tmen to explore the world.

Intracystoplasmic sperm injection is an extremely specialized procedure not offered in every fertility clinic, but the treatment is usually very effective. Couples are normally candidates for ICSI when the male partner's concentration of sperm is less than two million for each sperm sample (ejaculate), and there are problems with motility and morphology. Or when the man has a sperm delivery problem and the sperm for ICSI is directly extracted from the scrotum. This may be the case after a vasectomy, for example. In a normal IVF cycle, one egg is put into the same small space with a lot of sperm, usually at least one million. Some sperm will reach that egg, but will then still have to be able to penetrate its outer shell.
This is not possible for sperm with poor movement and shape, and a low sperm count further means that there will be fewer sperm to try. ICSI eliminates the need for this process. as one previously analyzed and selected sperm is injected into the middle of the egg. ICSI success rates will be different for every clinic and will depend on many other factors like maternal age and health too. As with regular IVF, there are various reasons why a cycle can fail. On the whole, this specialized procedure is highly effective, however.

When you are preparing to sell your home, set up your rooms in a way that defines the space. A family room must have the right accessories and furniture; this should also be the case with an office.

Take your time when doing demolition during a home renovation. It is essential to investigate what is behind your walls prior to tearing them out. If there is electricity involved in your home improvements, it may cost a lot to fix it.
One of the best times to buy a home improvement product is at closeout time. This does not always mean the end of the year.

Introduction: Tiny, sleepy Tolu is a seaside Caribbean town of about 50,000 people in the northwestern department of Sucre, sandwiched in between Bolivar to the east and Cordoba to the west. Its economic survival is based on tourism, and the difference here between high season and low season is pronounced. While the town itself offers little by way of activities, it is pleasant enough. The real draw here in the region is the 10 San Bernardo Islands, located to the west in the Golfo de Morrosquillo.
For backpackers and budget tourists, the real draw here is the price; it is far cheaper than its nearby neighbor Cartagena. The town is packed with reasonably priced hotels, restaurants, and tour companies offering day or overnight trips to the nearby islands, which are about an hour away by boat. On the southern side of the island you'll find the small port, and while the city lacks beautiful beaches, there are several beaches located along the coast. There are also numerous stone piers jutting out into the water, many of which offer bars and restaurants. They're a great place to enjoy the sunset.
Orientation and Location: Tolu is located just three hours south of Cartagena, by way of a decent major highway. The city is arranged by a numbered grid of streets, as in most cities in Colombia, with the streets running east/west, and the carreras running north south. Carrera Primera runs along the coast, while the numbered streets increase as one goes northward. Most of the tourist activity is concentrated between Calle 15 and 20. The northern parts of the town should be avoided at night, while during the day the city is reasonably safe.
How to Get There: Most tourists here will arrive by way of Cartagena. Buses leave more than every half hour from Cartagena's bus terminal, which is located one hour from the Centro by bus, or $15.000 by taxi. From the Cartagena terminal, it's a 2.5 to 3 hour bus ride. Upon your arrival, you can walk to the downtown, which is about 10 minutes to the west, or for $4.000 you can take a bicycle taxi.
There are also domestic flights to nearby Sincelejo, the capital of Sucre, or Monteria, the capital of Cordoba. However, given price and typical backpacker routes, Cartagena's Rafael Nunez International Airport is almost certainly your best option.
Tolu is also readibly accessible from Barranquilla, Santa Marta, Medellin, by bus. It's about 5 hours from Barranquilla, 7 from Santa Marta, and 10 to Medellin. Bogota is about 20 hours away by bus. To the west of Tolu, there are few typical tourist areas, although theoretically, if you're arriving by boat from Panama, you can take a bus from Turbo that will pass through Tolu.
What to See: Tolu is a place where the real attractions are outside of the city. Unfortunately, there is virtually nothing by way of architecture of history in the city. The main plaza is located between Carrera 2 and 3 and Calle 15 and 16. Here you'll find a Super Exito, a Bancolombia ATM, and the town church, really the only building of note in the city.
All along Carrera Primera you'll find numerous hotels, mainly of the budget variety. Here, at least during the low season rooms go for $25.000 with a fan and $35.000 with AC. One of your best bets is to sample the various seafood options. You'll find a variety of fish, shrimp, lobster, and squid options.
You'll also want to check out the interesting shops selling souvenirs: it's a great place to find cheap polished shells, baby alligators, starfish, windchimes, t-shirts, and all manner of things related to the sea. However, make sure you don't purchase anything dervived from any endangered species, such as several kinds of sea turtles.
There are swimming options in Tolu. A quick stroll up and down la Primera will reveal a couple of sandy beaches. Some of these spots are actually quite charming, with picturesque boats lining the shore, and stone piers jutting out into the waters of the Golfo de Morrosquillo.
And, of course, at night, the most popular activities include watching the sunset and enjoying a delicious cold beer or cocktail.
Tolu, at most, justifies a stay of a couple of days; perhaps one day to explore the town, another day to check out neighboring Covenas, and another to take a tour (or possibly spend the night) on the nearby Islas de San Bernardo.
Ambience: The Colombian costenos are a laidback bunch, and Tolu is no exception. It's a mix of mestizo and Afrocolombian populations, with little commerce or industry apart from that derived from tourism. People will certainly be grateful for your presence, especially in off-season.

Road rage – we all get it. Whether we mumble at another driver under our breath, shout out load, or lay on our horns, we are all guilty of getting angry at other driver's at some point in our lives. However, these outbursts of anger can turn dangerous when they prompt altercations with other drivers. If you damage someone else's property as a result of your road rage, you can be charged with criminal mischief.
Here, I will discuss the different degrees of criminal mischief. I will also explain the penalties that a person convicted of each type of criminal mischief faces. If you face a criminal mischief charge, this information can help you.
Degrees of Criminal Mischief
There are four degrees of criminal mischief.
1st Degree Criminal Mischief
If you damage public utilities or cause damage of property that costs $1,500 or more, you will be guilty of 1st degree criminal mischief which is a felony. You face up to five years in prison and a fine of up to $5,000 if convicted.
2nd Degree Criminal Mischief
If you purposefully cause property damages that cost more than $250, you will be guilty of this crime. You face a fine of up to $2,000 and a jail sentence of up to 1 year.
3rd Degree Criminal Mischief
If you intentionally damage or tamper with someone's property, you face this charge. If convicted, you face a fine of up to $1000 and a jail sentence of up to 6 months.
4th Degree Criminal Mischief
This doesn't really apply to road rage, but if you damage smoke alarms, fire alarms, or fire hydrants, you face this charge. If convicted, you could receive a fine of up to $500 and a jail sentence that could last for 3 months.
Getting Help
As you can see, criminal mischief in the first degree is the most serious of the mischief charges. No matter which charge you face, you should take it seriously. If you do not know how to defend yourself, it is a good idea to contact an attorney. They will know what to do and will walk you through the process. To speak to a lawyer today, you can contact my office.

Large scale tea cultivation began in Kagoshima in the 1970s. Originally, tea blenders deemed the tea grown here unworthy of its own branding. They used Kagoshima tea as a "filler" tea and blended it into teas from other more renowned regions. Kagoshima tea was also used to make PET bottle teas because it was the only place where the tea was cheap enough.
This changed a couple of decades later. People grew to realise that the fertile volcanic soil in Kagoshima prefecture was capable of supporting high quality produce. That began a sustained effort to promote Kagoshima tea as a quality product in its own right. Our partner company in Kagoshima prefecture saw this entire journey over its long history. They saw the demand for domestic tea increase during Japan's boom years, and the resulting decline during the "lost decades" and shrinking population.
Today, they pin their hopes on exports as matcha grows in popularity all over the world. Many tea factories are investing in brand new lines of machinery for producing tencha. Tencha is the pre-cursor ingredient for matcha. Factories need new machines because tencha production involves cutting the leaves to roughly uniform sizes, while sencha machinery roll the leaves into needle-like shapes. It is a remarkable change to see an equally large tencha line next to a sencha line in a region more known for sencha.
Kagoshima produces many agricultural products like citrus fruits, grain alcohol, pork and beef. These are already famous throughout Japan for their quality. It is very exciting that the tea industry in Kagoshima prefecture is now looking towards improving the quality of their matcha. Many of the factories are building out the same traditional brick ovens found in Kyoto to ensure good quality tencha and matcha.
But that's not all. Areas like Chiran are also trying to grow awareness of "Chirancha", or Chiran Tea as a high quality product in itself. Uji matcha is the spiritual home of classic Japanese matcha. But the growers and producers in Kagoshima are much more willing to innovate and experiment with new techniques to make tastier and more affordable matcha.
Two of our partner-factories in Chiran and Kirishima have done exactly this. They are keen advocates of organic farming, and have come up with tasty, organic matcha blends. Our Organic Ceremonial Blend comes from one such estate in the Kirishima region. Their factory also features top end equipment to make tencha exactly the same way as in Uji.
Because Kagoshima has plenty of fertile land and larger, flatter areas to grow teas, mechanised agriculture is much more common. The Chiran estate we work with for our Seasonal Ceremonial Blend is one such example. Harvesting is quick and efficient thanks to these large harvesting tractors. This allows them to save costs which we pass on to you. High quality matcha can be obtained at a more affordable price thanks to these estates being willing to adopt newer and more efficient practices.
As the competition in the tea industry heats up across Japan, we are relieved that farmers, factories and blenders are all alive to the opportunities that are available in the market. Better yet, consumers are also more curious about where their tea comes from, and are happy to learn more about its source. There are now more types of matcha to curate than ever before, and we cannot wait to share the ones that make the cut with everyone.

Technology is radically impacting the ways we work, live, and relate to the world around us. As a result, there is a growing need for students to develop STEM and computational literacies that will help them to actively design, shape, and engage in our digitally mediated future. Helping students to develop these literacies requires us to rethink education beyond the acquisition of domain knowledge to transformational experiences that encompass social, collaborative, and knowledge building skills that empower learners to tackle nascent problems. In turn, to effectively support these new forms of learning, we need to design learning spaces that foster the kinds of complex collaboration, idea sharing, and inquiry that characterize best practices in education.Achieving this goal requires us to redesign learning environments as intertwined technological, informational, and pedagogical spaces, in which learners' experiences, goals, and pedagogical needs can be opportunistically connected to those of their peers to facilitate new forms of collaborative learning – learning that is spontaneous, anchored in students' own ideas, and facilitated by the teachers and technologies around them. Effective construction and evaluation of these environments requires us to approach them from an increasingly multi-disciplinary set of perspectives. The combination of learning sciences, human-computer interaction, and user- and learner-centered design offers a particularly rich set of complementary methods for designing and evaluating the learning and collaboration processes that take place in hybrid physical-digital learning spaces. Further, these instrumented learning spaces open the potential for collecting a rich array of telemetry data to complement traditional qualitative and quantitative approaches for understanding learning processes. These data offer exciting new opportunities not only for researchers to understand how students learn, but also to provide teachers and students alike with real-time insight into the state of their class at the individual, small group, and whole class levels.Mike's talk will encompass three main themes: 1) How technology-enhanced learning environments support new ways for participants to collaborate with peers, investigate rich and engaging phenomena, and develop critical STEM and computational literacies; 2) How employing multi-dimensional approaches from the learning sciences, HCI, and design provide important insights into how learning and collaboration are distributed across learners, technologies, and the physical space; and 3) What roles data-mining and analytics-driven software agents play in adding a layer of intelligence to these spaces by supporting real-time orchestration of activities, with timely and context-sensitive information for new insights into collaboration and learning. Using examples from his research in formal and informal learning environments, Mike will illustrate how these themes connect to his development of the theory of divergent collaboration, which is reshaping how we understand collaboration and learning processes and outcomes in open-ended and exploratory environments.

On the back of my last post, I've been making a conscious effort to utilise my wardrobe more. I've downsized it quite considerably but I'm nowhere near done yet. I'm still working on a finely tuned wardrobe where I can, have full visibility of what I have and not have key pieces hidden behind fast fashion wardrobe fodder that I bought on a whim a few years ago. Being more mindful of my clothing purchases and not just buying something just cos. I obviously have a long way to go but I do feel like I have vastly improved my shopping habits.
On one purge I uncovered my LazyOaf cat shirt, one of the first items I ever bought from LO. I remember always wistfully looking on their site and never making a purchase until I saw this go into the sale and my dad very kindly buying it for me. I remember being so excited that I FINALLY owned a LO piece but once again, I didn't really utilise it, I hid it away in my wardrobe. The moment there was a hint of sun, I got my cat shirt out of my wardrobe and wore it with my super ripped TopShop jeans that I basically haven't taken off since I bought them, creating a simple but fun outfit for early Spring.
I legit vow to never leave it so long again to wear something I really really love.

Our Mission
The Mission of the Pittsburgh-Matanzas Sister Cities Partnership is to expand our sister city relationship between the City of Pittsburgh and the City of Matanzas, Cuba, to foster understanding and bilateral cooperation through mutually beneficial exchanges between individuals, government officials, community groups, organizations, educational, environmental, cultural, sports, business, and other institutions. It is important that ordinary people be able to experience Cuba for themselves and form their own opinions. Over the years, our work has expanded to encompass bilateral relationships within the entire nation of Cuba.
Our work focuses on these 4 objectives:
- Lift the illegal and immoral blockade (Extra-territorial economic and trade sanctions that impact world trade)
- Lift the Travel Ban (Allow Americans the same freedom of travel enjoyed by every other democratic nation.)
- Building International Relations that respect the independence and Sovereignty of Cuba
- Ending the illegal and immoral occupation of Guantanamo Bay (US is in outright violation of Treaty)

What is the best way to treat face pain in MS?
Lead researcher: Dr Jianhua Wu
Based at: University of Leeds
MS Society funding: £37,546
Status: Active
About the project
People with MS are 20 times more likely to experience trigeminal neuralgia than those without MS. Often described as a sharp shooting pain in the face, it's the result of damage to the trigeminal nerve.
Some people find they're able to manage the pain with drug treatments, but the effectiveness of the treatments often reduces over time. In these cases clinicians may advise Gamma Knife Radio Surgery (GKRS). GKRS involves applying a very high dose of radiation to a very small area of the brain, targeting the trigeminal nerve.
Currently there's no standard procedure of treating MS-related trigeminal neuralgia using GKRS, with different clinics targeting a range of points along the nerve and using a range of dosages. Jianhua's team will look at optimising the process to improve the effectiveness of GKRS for MS. They'll test different doses and treatment points, looking at which gives the most pain relief and the greatest improvement in quality of life for people with MS.
How will it help people with MS?
Pain can be one of the most challenging invisible symptoms of MS. Finding treatments that help people with MS manage it better is one of our research priorities. This project will improve an important procedure that has the potential to really help people experiencing face pain.
The difference you can make
We want everyone with MS to have access to the treatments they need to live well with MS. With your help, we can continue to support vital research like this.
The next research breakthrough is in reach
Your donation will help stop MS.
£10could help us support someone calling our MS Helpline
£20could pay for one hour of research to help us understand and manage MS fatigue
£30could help run the MS Forum, giving over 27,000 people a place to come together as a community
Every penny you give us really does help us stop MS.
£10a month could help stock our research labs with essential supplies
£20a month for a year could help fund a short break for someone with MS
£30a month could help train an MS Helpline volunteer to support hundreds of people with MS
Your regular donation means we can keep funding world class MS research with confidence. Together we will stop MS.

Sept 3rd – 9th 2018
Alja Herlah
I participated in the Tipo Brda workshop for the first time in the winter of 2014. It is an intensive one-week long Type Design Workshop which opened my eyes and made me fall in love with letters. Spending the whole week in the house full of nerdy font developers, only talking about letter shapes is an experience, which is difficult to explain to the outside world.Since then, I have become an active member of the Tipo Brda organisation and got the opportunity to co-organise the workshops. Myself and the team spend (too many) hours in front of our computers, refining the course.
Day 1
After breakfast, Jakob introduced us to basic block letters. In other words, how to draw mono-linear sans with a ruler and pencil. We sketched the outline of the alphabet in uppercase, grotesque-looking shapes, which are in sign-painting terminology known as block letters.
After lunch, we moved on to basic shapes made with brush and acrylic colours. We only worked using vertical, horizontal and round basic strokes, which may sound super easy, but in fact, it is not. Getting used to the sign-painting brush can takes a bit more time than expected.
Day 2
We started day 2 by "filling" up our block letters. Using brush nu.6, black acrylic and the mahlstick.
The block letters we sketched the previous day served as an example of lettering. We used the same technique for our signs later in the week – sketching the letters and then filling them up with paint.
Later on, Jakob introduced us to the basic sign painters script called Casual. This style of letters tends to lean to the right side, which gives movement to the letters. Depending on the angle of the slant you use, the "faster" it appears. Of course it's not only about slanting the letters. What makes the script look great is the ending of the stroke. This is done by twisting the nib of the brush either to the right or the left side (depending on the shape of the letter).
Day 3
We took advantage of a great summer-ish day and moved our workstation outside. As an intro to day 3, Jakob explained different ways of shading the letters.
The plan for the day was to sketch the design for the signs. Some of the participants finished the design so they were also able to apply the shape onto the wooden MDF panel and cut it out using a jigsaw.
Before putting the first coat of the primer on the panel, we had to sand the surface in order to get that smooth, glossy look. After it was polished, we primed the panels with white acrylic.
For the background colour of our panels, we used sprays. To obtain an everlasting sign, oil-based paint is normally used as the base. This however takes a few days to dry so instead we used sprays.
While waiting for the paint to dry, we continued to sketch the design of our signs. Some preferred to put the easel outside and work on their brush script for a little longer.
In the afternoon, some of the participants took a few hours off to go swimming in the sea. I noticed people were more relaxed when they came back from the beach. Jumping in the sea brought smiles to the participants' faces. The first few days, we were a bit "tense'" – new people, new place, but after jumping into the water, the mood really loosened up. It also relaxed the atmosphere of the group which got a bit tense while sketching the design.
In the evening we gathered for a movie night – screening the Sign painting movie :)
Day 4
For those who had already finished with the sketches, they transferred them onto the panel using the pouncing technique.
Pouncing technique:
1. With the help of a seam roller, we made small holes in the paper to make the pounce pattern.
2. Using bags full of pounce powder, we pounced the paper in order to transfer the sketches onto the panel.
Day 5
Fridays are usually the most "stressful" days of the workshops. We needed to finish the fonts/signs for Saturday's exhibition. Some of the participants were super productive and managed to work on more than 1 sign.
Day 6 – Exhibition (see all the signs here)
In the morning we had some time to finish the signs or to explore new painting techniques.
But the afternoon was reserved for the exhibition.
There has been few weeks since the workshop. Memories are still very alive. As organizer and participant, I can only say I am very grateful for the whole week. We learned a lot and got super inspired. We are getting emails from the participants, being thankful for the whole experience and sharing their post-workshop lettering and painted signs.
For me personally, this is the biggest reason for organizing type related workshops. To encourage people to explore different technics within the world of typography – and make them enjoy it!

Running rings round polymers
Dutch scientists have demonstrated that supramolecular polymerisation occurs through a ring-chain polymerisation process, thus establishing a design for linear polymers based on monomer chains. Bert Meijer and his team at the University of Technology in Eindhoven, linked together a peptide and a protein using a flexible oligo(ethylene glycol) linker. The peptide and the protein end groups bind reversibly forming an active enzyme complex but the complexes can form either between the two linked ends of one of these monomers or between multiple monomers, forming either linear or cyclic super molecules.
