Dear Cole,
You are one of the great gifts of my life, the gift that made me a grand person. It will be many years before you know what that means because it is a secret reserved for grandparents alone. You may gather clues along the way that may help you imagine what it is like to love someone as much as your grandfather and I love you, and I will try to describe it now, on this, your tenth birthday.
When you were born and I first held you, I immediately realized that you were the one. The one that would fill a place in my arms and heart that had been specifically designed and reserved for you. You have filled that place with joy ever since. You captured me with your laugh and your smile, a smile that I've watched through many changes. I loved your baby smile that was all gum and then you got your tiny teeth. In a little while those baby teeth came loose and you put each one under your pillow and flashed a jack-o-lantern type grin. Now your face beams with metal covered teeth and multi-color bands, but no matter what's going on with your teeth, your smile is the one that makes me know that all is well with the world.
When I hear your voice call my name and see you running up to give me a hug, I could explode with happiness. I love everything about you, just because you are you. I can see evidence of the man you are growing up to be and I can see God at work in you. He has given you good qualities and abilities, friends and family, challenges and opportunities.
You love athletics and you play hard and well. You want to win but seem to know that winning is not everything and that you can learn valuable lessons from losing. When your performance disappoints you, you sometimes show it, but you know how to shake it off. You enjoy playing with others but are happy to be alone. I love the worlds you make with your imagination. You allow others, like me, into your wonderful world of legos and superheros. You share your magical creations and you let me help. You are patient with me. We share stories and movies, games and music. I think that you really like music. Music seems to move effortlessly through your veins because the way you sing and dance is uniquely your own, reflecting your easy, soulful, carefree, elegant style.
You notice the people around you and you care about them. You are kind. You love your sister and are respectful to your parents. You have friends. When you argue with your sister or your friends you stick up for your beliefs. Sometimes you get angry but you are quick to say you are sorry. You forgive and move on. You do not hold a grudge. You are generous and you are grateful.
You are so smart. You have the gift of a dyslexic mind. You will continue to discover the brilliance of that mind. It took some special teachers and a lot of hard work on your part to learn to read, but wow, once you did, you can not put your books away. I don't know of too many kids who read all 7 Harry Potter books before they were ten years old. I think you appreciate reading much more than most kids your age. My own theory is that the Dyslexic mind is so brilliant the rest of us couldn't understand all that's in it all at once, so it's kind of locked up. It is a puzzle that will frustrate, entertain and amaze you all your life as you keep discovering what you have to offer the world. I am so very, very proud of you.
At grandparents day you asked me the question: "What advice do you want to give me?" I had to answer quickly.
Now that I've had time to think about it, my answer remains the same, Always believe that you are as wonderful as your Pepper and Nee Nee think you are.
Happy birthday, Cole.

Understanding these traditions and rituals will make you more desirable in the eyes of others. Creating a luxurious atmosphere is the key to seduction and romantic dinner. Learning the art of cooking presentation, history building, and intoxicating traditions.
In seduction and romantic dinner, the setting for food is necessary. In seduction, there is a gradual (or swiftly as the case may be) from the public to the private. Most "dates" usually begin in a public place such as a bar or club. On the crucial "second time together," you may move to a night out, where the male can demonstrate his "resource ability" by paying the bill. This stage may be prolonged, but at some moment, the "your place or mine for dinner" idea will happen.
Seduction and Romantic Dinner Traditions
The romantic dinner is used as a "bridge" to mark the importance of your enjoyment for each other. Learn to create a gorgeous fun and enjoyable atmosphere, by studying Table Setting, Table Centerpiece, Romantic Lighting, Musical Bonding, Quality Time, Gift of Flowers, Gift Giving and Building a History
Informative Traditions of Table Setting
When setting a table, there are a few things to consider, example: Season, location, and colors. So remember the table setting contributes to the luxurious ambiance of a meal as much as the food and wine. Add a hint of drama, such as silk. You need to make something exciting, different and unforgettable. For more information on "Table Setting" Click Here!
Design Elements: Napkins, plates silverware, glasses, and tablecloth.
Traditions of Table Centerpieces
Sometimes, the centerpiece is all you need to turn the table from boring to significant. Finding the right table centerpiece can help you achieve your artful vision. Learn to express your personal style through the table décor, and the possibilities for the centerpiece is endless. The round shapes and smooth textures make ideal decorative accents. For more information on "Table Centerpieces" Click Here!
Vital Traditions of Romantic Lighting
Is lighting the best and simplest way to create a romantic atmosphere in your dining room? It's lighting, of course!

Magical Traditions of Musical Bonding
Music plays a role in social interactions in every culture. Music will elicit physical reactions, by causing them to sway in rhythm, it will inspire sexual excitement.

Famous Traditions of Quality Time
There is something special about having quality time with someone that you like. Quality time helps strengthen and bond in our busy lives. Quality time together can be difficult to find. Having established traditions sets aside time to be with the ones, and it helps draw us together face-to-face. Quality time gives us time to know each other on a deeper level.
Incorporate new ideas as well as positive experiences from the past. Quality time will make it more personal and memorable. After you've enjoyed your tradition for a few years, re-evaluate and improve things. These activities do not have to be time-consuming or extravagant to be a memorable bonding experience. For more information on "Quality Time" Click Here!
Unique Traditions of Gift of Flowers
Flowers have always been a top gift choice for any occasion. We all appreciate the beauty and colorful nature of flowers as an investment in memories and traditions. For more information on "Gift of Flowers" Click Here!
Distinguished Traditions of Gift Giving
The emphasis is on the act of giving rather than the gift itself. The value of the gift giving is more importance than the presentation and thoughtfulness in which it is presented. In gift giving the best part of receiving is the wrapping that comes with it. For more information on "Gift Giving" Click Here!
Ultimate Traditions of Building a History
Most people's minds work in predictable ways and respond well to security, attachment, and rituals, making it possible to prime the brain for greater love. When you start to building a history by moving the friendship to the next level, you are giving the relationship a chance to make it. Start making a history together, have fun and create patience, you just may get yourself a partner for life. For more information on "Building a History" Click Here!

An eerie protest against the Trump administration played out on the streets of New York this week, where Vice President Mike Pence traveled with Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen to address a cybersecurity summit.
Dozens of women, dressed like the handmaids from Margaret Atwood's dystopian novel and TV series The Handmaids Tale, gathered in front of Alexander Hamilton U.S. Custom House, in the city's Financial District. The event was co-ordinated by the activist group Refuse Fascism.
The handmaid costumes have become a potent element of protests, especially in support of reproductive rights, across the U.S. and around the world in the past year.
Tuesday's protest was in response to Trump's now-rescinded family separation policy and the newly created Religious Liberty Task Force announced by U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Monday, the New York Post reported.
A statement by Sunsara Taylor, posted on the group's website said: "Mike Pence is a Christian fascist theocrat for whom the Handmaid's Tale is a model society: the Bible invoked to force women to bear children against their will, to persecute LGBTQ people, to tear immigrant children from parents. Only by driving the Trump/Pence regime from power through massive, sustained protest can we stop this nightmare."
Protesters held signs reading "Give back the children you stole" and "Trump/Pence must go!" and laid out children's shoes on the ground, to symbolize the trauma incurred by separating families at the U.S.-Mexico border. "It's the torturing of children and it's being done as a way to intimidate and oppress people," Emma Kaplan told the Post. "That's fascist."
The action attracted a range of women, young and old. "I see how America has changed since Trump's presidency and how it will continue to keep changing if he has his policies fulfilled," said 82-year-old Lillian Forman. "We're losing our liberties, our law protections and our balances. I saw what he did to the kids at the border, and if he can do that to little children — some of them mere babies, literally babies ? he will do anything."
The rally was also attended by Therese Patricia Okoumou, who scaled the Statue of Liberty on July 4th during a protest against the policies of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency.

The Hand Creole (Silver)
Is there such thing as a subtle statement? The Hand Creole is unique enough to catch eyes, fun enough to catch good vibes and probably matches everything. It's my favorite earring by Zurich based designer Anna Z'Brun of Les Solides. Anna runs Les Solides from both Bali and Zurich - so her pieces are specially handcrafted (by real humans!) in Bali (the gold plating is made in Switzerland).
Why Les Solides: Because founder Anna is a gorgeous motivated female entrepreneur (I've gotten to meet her in person so I can verify!), handmade pieces, she values the human behind every handmade product that she sells, the harmony that her pieces emanate

A gift Adam received;
That which was half of him
Although cleverly she was deceived,
She bore a deadly hymn.
From dust they rose; fearsome
Bare in the blue sky, they watched as it piled
Its fingers sprawled out in each direction; a welcome.
And to which bore a hollow soul of a lost child.
Blooming rose in the middle of spring,
It caught her eye
Clinging to it was a string,
Alien, perhaps a guy.
Thus their innocence vanished
Their image had been tarnished.
What's it like to be the painter?
And not the object?
To paint flowers black and some brown,
Because that's how life is; imperfect.
Or a concrete figure, never any more or any less,
Who is ravishing in every way?
A shadow finding its way in the light;
Yes….that picture I would love to paint.
This figure sorts to find the key, but to what?
A treasure box? A door?
The never ending strokes…
But I ponder it on and painting proceeds.
Or maybe I should paint a peacock…
So in the daytime, its feathers shall unfold.
Mother in Music
The key to another world,
your own preferably, where breathing comes second, and you first. As the sun rises, sets, and disappears; she is there
whispering the words "I am here."
Her tunes cause radiance bright like the sun but though intensely vibrant, her waves lack nuisance. Warming the heart and tickling our ears,
as we take caution while fist pumping our knuckles, to fanciful images visible to nothing but our hearts.
Sensing not seeing her face, but yet still,
we suck upon her nipple.
Drawing life into our souls, becoming one,
listening and hearing each other,
she engulfs me into her arms with each word
drawing me closer.
Tender and beautiful as she is, she knows
when to shut out the world
during the time we are together.
When all is lost, she bestows hope,
Calling in the dark, she answers with light.
And on every rainy day, when I take to weeping
She kneels by me and whispers these same words
"I am here."
Monologue in the voice of Curly from "Of Mice and Men"
I'm Curly…pfff. You all know who I am and if you don't….what am I saying? Is that even possible? Nope and you know why? Cause' everyone knows Curley; The best or let me look for a better stage name. The "Bullet," yeah that'll do. I'm as fast as a bullet. I always win the fight. Nobody dares to look for my trouble. They know too well I fight like the tiger. I'm the boss' son. The Man with the fists of steel and I sure know how to use them. But that was before that BIG BEAST LENNIE CRUSHED MY HAND. OH MY! I am going to kill that son of the devil! I don't care whether he is dead or alive. He must go to hell! He killed my wife!! Who the hell did he think he was?!I wonder, before he killed her, if he remembered whose wife she is! She's not just anyone's wife. She is Curly's, the son of the boss of the ranch, heir to the ranch's, wife!
I am tougher than all the guys on the ranch, apart from that big ol' Lennie! If that slug Slim hadn't come and made me swear to not tell anyone or my pride would be tarnished, I would have told her what really occurred that day. What that giant meatball really was! She would have stayed clear of him. It wouldn't have had to end up this way. She there and me here… Now look at me; no wife and disabled. You think I love the way I am? With my father's rank, you would think so but actually I don't. I don't like fighting. But that kinda helps me escape me; the small, hurt, useless Curly; now known as the mean, tough Curly.
I wasn't always mean, loneliness made me this way. I had no friends both at home and at school back then. I don't think anyone would want to be my friend now. I used to hear jokes like "Aren't you like an inch away from being a midget?" or "How's it going down there?" when I was a kid. It was never funny. I got bullied way too much. I was picked on in the school yard just because I had no one to fight for me. I remember one time in 5th grade, when this kid in my class; he was called the "Bull," bullied me. His friends called him that because he was the biggest kid in the school and the meanest. He pushed me in the middle of the playground and everyone was gathering and cheering for a fight and I the small frail kid could do nothing but stand there and hope I could go home with at least one eye to see that day. He hit me once, twice, my hands were dangling by my sides, and I could do nothing. He was twice my size. As if that wasn't enough, his friends joined in and no one helped me, you know why? Because I had no friends; nobody. My mom usually used to say, "Don't pay evil with evil. Be the better man." I tried but that didn't always work. She was the only one that held me and treated me like a human, which was before the accident that took her away from me. Dad started talking about how I am a disappointment to him. I have grown up feeling unloved and a shame. With all the lack of attention in school and at home, you can't blame me… Yeah I am short but that really isn't the thing. The problem all started after my mom died. When she was alive, my dad gave me a bit more of a listening ear. We used to play outside. The game I loved the most was called hide and seek and whenever I found him, he'd give me a dollar as my reward. My mum on the other hand would make me give it back to him because she said he needed it more than I did. She was strict but I loved it and very reasonable. I miss her but now she's gone and so is he. He barely listens to me. He always said he had things to do. Am I the cause? Or mum? Or is he really busy like he claims he is? I really don't know…I miss him. I really do. Now he prefers slim. He wishes I were more like Slim… Slim this, Slim that, I am sick of hearing that crap all the time!! Now I am not going to be the bullied kid rather the bully. The only thing I had that none of the rest had, not even Slim was a girl. Someone I could show off with to the other guys but then that bastard, Lennie had to go ruin it for me didn't he? He killed her; my pride, my bride. The only friend I had. The only person I could have to myself. She was the reason I could walk around with my head held high. We fought all the time but still she was…my wife and I could say that to anyone. To Slim, to George and even to that messed up retard, Lennie. She was real pretty…mhmm…And I felt proud walking around knowing that everyone knew she was my wife. I really loved her but the mistake I made was not showing that to her. Real men don't show their feelings. That's what I live by but I was stupid enough to apply that even with my wife who was supposed to be an exception. But she's gone now….. And I can't take that back.
I act as though I'm tough and I go after the big tough guys like Lennie to show that I ain't scared of nobody but that still is not of much help. I need a friend. I never had one and would love to know how it feels to be a friend and to have one but nobody understands me. I am always the bad guy. The one everyone looks down on. No, I can't be seen as that. I've been pushed way too much and I ain't gonna let that happen no more. I can never get my wife back. I can never get the simple human need to find a kindred spirit. To connect and to know in my heart that I'm actually not alone, that I actually have someone. Right now, I just gotta figure out how to avenge my wife and uhm….clean up this mess on my face. Don't want anyone seeing me like this. This is the part of me no one can see…I'm starving. Crooks…Crooks….HEY CROOKS!! GET ME A SANDWICHH! OH YEAH AND A BEER NOW! MAKE IT FAST!!

The 'as some would see it' under-achieving, English international midfielder had moved on mainly to be geographically closer to his family (a little Landon Donovan-ish, even in the same country). Still fetched a firm $16 million and his exit was imminent especially when Dyer was left out of Newcastle's recent 3-1 win over Bolton.
Good move for Allardyce to rid himself of Dyer, who seemed to exude the very 'underperformance curse of the Magpies' that many argue exists. A month ago, the deal seemed done but hit a snag when Newcastle asked for more money. After the Hammers lost their opening match 2-0 against Man City, however, the money became a non-issue and neither did Dyer's tumultuous history with Newcastle and the injury bug. Instead, Curbishley saw the fact he was, when healthy, a very effective player – not to mention an England international. Only time will tell if this deal pans out – what you think of this move? Who wins?

Enjoy The Very Best of Brisbane for 72 Hours
Bucket List Worthy Uncategorized
Brisbane is an awesome city! It has a great urban vibe where you can enjoy countless amazing restaurants, bars, art museums, tours and much more. But Brisbane isn't just a ripper of a city, the great outdoors can also be enjoyed while spending your vacation here. Located by Brisbane River, and with the beautiful botanical garden and parks around the city centre, you have the conveniences and fun of urban living, as well as opportunities for plenty of outdoor fun.
It is the best of both worlds, and everyone coming to see and explore Brisbane will have endless things to do. 72 hours will fly by in no time in Brisbane, but that is why we are here to help you. So let's get ready for yet another adventure of Australia.
Day One
First things first, check in to your Brisbane hotel. And have we ever found the most excellent spot for you! Spicers Balfour Hotel is the perfect place on this 72 hour adventure you've embarked on in Brisbane. Spicers Balfour Hotel is located in the fashionable suburb of New Farm, and you will stay in luxury accommodation just minutes away from the city centre making it the ideal base while exploring the city. With a stylish and chic design this award-winning boutique hotel is undoubtably the best place to stay while in Brisbane. The only problem is, you might not want to leave the hotel!
Now, a very important aspect to traveling is to always feel good physically. And what might really make you feel extra fine and ready to begin your Brisbane adventure is to start off this first morning with some yoga. Roll out your mat in your hotel room and load up Yogaholics. Yogaholics is Australia's very first online yoga platform enabling you to do yoga wherever you are. They offer access to yoga videos taught by some of the most respected yoga instructors in Australia. The classes range from beginner to advanced vinyasa and yin classes, as well as guided meditations to start your travels off on the right…or left…foot. So shake off any jet lag or stiff legs before venturing out on your Brisbane adventure.
Hungry yet? We bet you are, so let's go find some food to amp up this spectacular first day in Brisbane. Head on down to Grown to find yourself an utterly delicious brunch. Choose between your favourite classic brunch dishes and enjoy it with a Golden Latte or, may we suggest, the divine Beetroot Latte. And did we mention it is 100% plant-based food? Every ingredient is sourced no longer than 400 kilometres away. So you will feel reenergized, refuelled and ready to take on the rest of the day after eating at this lovely Brisbane restaurant.
Let's go find out just why people rave about the outdoor activities in Brisbane. And the spot to see what the fuss is all about is at Victoria Park. Trust us, this isn't your ordinary park with some swings and flowers. No, in Victoria Park the activities are endless. Come here to golf, putt, play, eat and drink. There is something for visitors of all ages and you might just want to spend an entire day here. Make sure to check the schedule to see what events might be on for your visit.
After the outdoor escapades let's take the fun indoors. And a little outdoors still. Because Brisbane is also known to be a place where visitors can enjoy some incredible culture and art. And that's what you're going to see next. Find it at HOTA, Home of The Arts. This is the Golds Coast's premier cultural facility. HOTA is bringing visual and performing arts to the city of Brisbane so as a tourist this is a must while visiting. It is located beautifully surrounded by parklands and a lake with Surfers Paradise as a backdrop. There is so much to see here; it's the perfect way to spend your afternoon the first day in Brisbane
Do you like beer? Hopefully your answer is yes otherwise you're missing out. Especially with an ace place like the one we've got lined up for you. Because it is time for an ice-cold brew and probably one of the very best in town. Find a seat at Brisbane Brewing Co. and get ready to quench your thirst. The great beer here is brewed right beside you, and you can enjoy some unique and interesting new flavours of craft beer. This is a one-of-a-kind brewery and a place you absolutely cannot miss. So head to Brisbane Brewing Co. this evening for a perfect cold one, or two.
After some specialty beer, it is time for something else truly special. Ever heard about the famous Sydney restaurant Aria? Well, if you know anything about spectacular chefs and food, you will know that this is world class! And Aria is in Brisbane now too! By chef Matt Moran and partner Bruce Solomon you can now have an extraordinary dining experience your very first night in Brisbane. Meanwhile, while indulging on their perfectly balanced seasonal dishes, you can enjoy the striking views of the Story Bridge across the Brisbane River. And top that off with an award-winning wine list. This is top notch dining, and the perfect first dinner in Brisbane!
The night isn't over! Time to hit up The Flying Cock. This spot is widely-known as Brisbane's best night out. With excellent live music and delicious quality drinks you can spend your night here having the time of your life. Open every Friday and Saturday to 3 am it might be hard to get home as you're undoubtably having too much fun. This is the place to see, and be seen! Look up their calender too as once a month they host a Stand-up comedy show called "You're Joking", and they have Beer Yoga as well as Barre At The Bar.
Day Two
Day two, and we might as well be honest here, it may be hard to top day one. But we sure are going to try! And we see no better way than to begin your second morning learning how to ride a segway with Kangaroo Segway Tours. No need to have tried a segway before as they are super easy to learn how to ride. So beginners or experienced drivers can join in on one of the awesome tours offered by Kangaroo Segway Tours. We recommend you to join The Adventure Tour going 27 km around the city seeing the best and most popular attractions in Brisbane. It is a blast!
After this wonderful segway adventure a coffee sounds like the perfect thing to enjoy next, don't you think? So drop off the segway and get your legs used to walking again while finding your way to Le Petit Paris. Here you can relax in a true Parisian atmosphere enjoying a splendid coffee with the option of trying a mouthwatering sweet treat like their fresh French pastries or sweet crepes. If you're more into something savory the savoury crepes are yummy too.
Some more deliciousness for the tastebuds? Well of course, Brisbane is home to some game-changing food experiences so you better be ready to eat up. Next you're going to the Boundary Street Market. A glorious outdoor marked where you can indulge in food from all over the world including Turkey, Romania, Mexico, Japan, France, you name it. If you're traveling with kids they have a cool play area too. There is often live music you can listen to while tasting the worldly food alongside a cold drink in the sun. They also have great vegan and gluten-free options.
Now after filling up on delicious food, there is of course even more fun to be had. This time we promise it won't involve consuming more food. When describing Brisbane we promised fun outdoor adventures and that is exactly what you're going to go on next. Riverlife has the best type of adventures in the river city of Brisbane with over 13 years of experience. They're located at the base of the Kangaroo Point Cliffs and have many different fun tours to choose from. Test your skills on the river for kayaking or stand up paddle boarding. If you're not looking to be on the river but rather you want to enjoy the views of it maybe join their kangaroo point rock climbing or abseiling tours. Regardless of what tour you choose this will be a highlight of your Brisbane vacation!
For pre-dinner drinks tonight you're heading to the very popular bar called Embassy Craft Beer Bar. Sip a refreshing speciality craft beer while kicking back in the rustic industrial stylings of the bar. Embassy has 16 taps plus one traditional hand pump with beer ranging from the wellknown to the rare and unique. Also, with over 100 bottles varieties of beer you will surely find your favourite while resting the body in style.
For dinner you can prepare yourself to eat yet another spectacular meal. We're going Italian this time. At Il Verde you will be served some of the best Italian dishes with a menu that boasts a combination of traditional Italian technique and fresh, modern flavours. Even though you feel like you're eating fine dining dishes the prices are affordable. Their salads with fresh mozzarella are so good, you will want to try one of those alongside one of their excellent pasta dishes! Their cheese wheel pasta is also one you don't want to miss, enjoy this cheesiness on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Don't worry, the night isn't over just yet. To finish the night go to Ric's Bar, the most iconic music venue in Brisbane City. This is the longest running free entry live music venue with live music happening seven nights a week. You can also lounge in the beer garden here under the stars while thinking back on all the awesome memories you're already created in Brisbane. If you're here for the first Sunday of the month they have Scribble Slam taking place in the backyard. Here two artists have 90 minutes to complete an artwork with a theme announced on the evening. It is great fun! So finish up your night at Ric's Bar.
Day Three
The last day begins with a brunch in the most amazing location at Riverbar and Kitchen. Located right on the Brisbane River this truly is a unique waterfront destination for any time of the day. There is plenty of outdoor seating so you can sit by the water in the warm Brisbane sun and enjoy a superb brekky or brunch. They open at 7 am, when the views by the water are wonderful.
Time to enjoy some more sweets and possibly also find something cool to bring back home. And we have to warn you, you might just fill up the entire suitcase with this. You're going to Dello Mano which is Australia's leading brownie artisans. They've been at it for 12 years and been responsible for igniting the Australian Brownie Revolution. With two stores in Brisbane, find the closest to you. You will find a beautiful store, an amazing food experience and hospitality that is world class. Their brownie boxes will undoubtably make your packing a bit harder when you're leaving Brisbane.
Make sure to plan your visit to Brisbane around the Brisbane Street Art Festival. This is a city wide outdoor street art festival that seeks to give an opportunity for creative talents to have a multi-disciplinary platform. The festival encourages any and all art forms to participate. This is an amazing avenue for artistic expression, and if you're so lucky to be in Brisbane, you will understand why it returns every year due to popular demand.
Want to sip on fantastic coffees and relax for a bit? After some culture at the street art festival another spot worth checking out is The Tiller. Their passion is serving great speciality coffee and also educating anyone who wants to know about the process from farm to cup. This is a true local business wanting to create a space where people can sit, chat, think, eat and most importantly taste the incredible coffee.
You know what goes well with coffee? GELATO! And this isn't just your average gelato you're about to try, the gelato at La Macelleria Gelateria is brought all the way from the streets of Italy. The two owners fell in love while traveling in Australia and then followed a dream to bring a real Gelateria to Australians in Brisbane! Lucky for everyone visiting Brisbane! So stop by to try this real Italian gelato or make sure to come by a Monday night for one of their workshops so you can try out making your very own artisan gelato.
Since you've been eating quite a bit today let's make this last night about casual snacking and delicious drinks in cool places. For your first drink you won't find a better spot than at Lychee Lounge. This is a place to be seen. One of the hippest bars in Brisbane serving some of the best cocktails you'll find in Brisbane. The decor is cool and unique, and if you feel like a bite to eat they have some yummy bar food with a twist. We couldn't think of a better place to begin your final night in Brisbane.
Next up you're going to Bine Bar & Dining where you can continue the night of ace drinks and yummy snacking. At Bine Bar & Dining you'll find food and drink specials of the day, a kitchen takeover on Tuesday's and live entertainment every weekend. This is a super popular place with locals, and you will find delicious craft beer and great wines plus mouth-watering cocktails. The menu is modest but decadent. It's a perfect next stop on your final night eating and drinking your way around the coolest spots in Brisbane.
The night is almost over but not quite yet, one final stop and is it ever a good one! Heya Bar will be your final spot to visit on this magical adventure in Brisbane city. And this is a one-of-a-kind stop. It consists of hidden bars, live music, pool tables, pinball machines, Asian streefood and plenty of drinks. It is inspired by the street markets of South East Asia. Heya is a wonderland of tiny little doorways, secret rooms and perfect for late night eats and drinks. Every Friday there is live music and free stand-up comedy every Wednesday, so try to hit it one of those days if possible.
We know your stomach is full now. And so is your suitcase, full of splendid memories, and some artisan brownies maybe. But, it is time to say goodbye to Brisbane and to all the cool spots and places you've been. With these awesome memories you can happily return home and start planning for your next trip back. Because Brisbane is a place people can't get enough off!

If you have a car and that car is without any debt, or rather, there are no outstanding payments open for the car, you are eligible for a logbook loan. A logbook loan is a loan where your car vehicle registration logbook is used as collateral, whereby you sign a bill of sale as if you sold your vehicle under the condition that you get it back once you paid off your debt, all the while driving and using the car as if nothing happened. Since that it is very easy to obtain this loan, the popularity of it has only risen in current months, despite the bad word of mouth.
The origin story is simple enough, people with bad credit really needed another avenue to receive some money, perhaps to consolidate their mounting debts and were unable to find anything else short of selling the car. Cars are valuable, but once you have sold your car, which you might truly need to go to your place of employment, you are out of a job as well. This scenario makes it not only highly unlikely that you sell your car, but risking trading down your perhaps borderline for traffic functional vehicle for an even less reliable specimen can be just as lethal as quitting your job altogether.
Some smart people thought about pawning a car and found legal justification in a more than a century old law pertaining to the bill of sale. Needless to say that, since the idea came from the people who were lending money, the whole scenario is drastically favouring the lenders and disadvantaging the customer, who is facing certain doom, if even one payment is late. The original fine print was even more draconian, where lenders allowed themselves powers over any and all assets the customer may have, but after some pretty nasty legal and even in some instances physical battles, the government curtailed this practice and all but eradicated any borderline unlawful acts.
The only questionable thing that remained is the unbearably high APR rate that should have made this form of lending money not only unattractive to clients, but straight-out squash the demand completely. For some reason, arguably because of the mounting unevenly distributed wealth among citizens, rising costs of living and similar valid yet unconfirmed points, logbook loan figures are displaying a constant increase in revenue. Instead of allowing the regular people to consolidate their debts in some easier manner, the government is apparently not interested in helping people, but providing businesses and professional lenders with capacities to squeeze more debt capacities out of overly indebted public. Maybe next time you are standing in front of a voting cabin, you should think twice who you are giving your vote to.

If you see any of these mafias in the picture, you need to freak out and run as fast as you can! These are the people who will organ out and allow you to bleed dry. haha.
After traveling for about 4 months in America and Mexico, I have learned some safety tips to share with any aspiring travelers.
1) Prepare before you leave home
Before leaving for your trip, make copies of your passport, visas, ATM card, credit cards, birth certificate, driver's license and other important documents or ID cards. Leave one copy at home with your family or a close friend, and the other should be stored online in your e-mail. This will save a lot of trouble if anything gets lost or stolen.
2) Secret pocket
The problem I found with a traveller's pouch is that it is very uncomfortable to carry along and if you were robbed at gunpoint that is the first thing a robber will target. I recommend to have a secret pocket in your underwear. It is the perfect thing to bring to a late night drinking session when you know you can get drunk. All you need to bring is your ID and cash. You can either purchase one from http://www.clevertravelcompanion.com/ or be like me, and make it yourself.
3) Locking up
There are plenty of bags around that are left unattended or thrown hastily on the overhead rack while its owner sleeps soundly below. Once, I forget to lock my front zipper of my bag pack that is left in the trunk of the bus to Guatemala. After getting off the bus, I discovered that the zip was slightly opened and my pencil box is nowhere to be found – all my favorite stationary! One of the best ways to protect your bag on buses, sitting in a park or even in your hostel dorm room is to make it inconvenient for someone to snatch it up. You can either use a padlock or small Cable-tie. I use cable tie because it less flashy and you can easily buy a pack of 100 pieces from your hardware store.
4) Don't look rich
It is always a delima for girls to dress nice but not looking rich – even locals in the country make the same mistakes. My suggestion is plain colors with interesting fabric or cutting. Those seems to be the best traveller costumes. Avoid names brands and carry and old bag.
5) Back up cash
A few carefully stashed bills can be the insurance policy that gets you that train ticket, that hospital bed stay, that bottle of red wine, or that emergency call home. I usually have US$100 that is split between my first aid kit and the pocket of my coat.
6) Put everything in front of you
For women, bring a purse or bag where the strap crosses over your body and rests on your hip. These can be easily held against the front of your body. For men, I recommend wearing a backpack as a frontpack. It may sound silly, but I've had numerous friends have thieves open their backpack zippers and pull out money, cameras and phones without them even noticing. Always have your belongings in sight.
7) The GO Wallet
Consider carrying an extra wallet filled with a couple notes in the local currency. If you get mugged, you can hand over the decoy. Your mugger is likely to be in a hurry and might run off with this first offering. If successful, this strategy will spare you the loss of your bankcard and other hard to replace documents.
8) Prey your devices
If you are carrying a laptop or iPhone, my friend recommended me a free website to track your devices if it ever got stolen. The app mask itself as a game when it is install in your phone. Many people have actually relocate their devices in a different country and got it back safety. Check it out – http://preyproject.com
9) Don't assume your room is safe
I've met many travelers who assumed they could leave their valuables lying around their hotel room, only to have money, passports and electronics "go missing." I don't care if I am staying at a budget hostel or a five-star hotel, thefts happen. And, don't always trust the front desk with your things, either. To keep your things safe, make use of in-room lockers and safes, where only you know the combination. If there are no lockers, hide your valuables under the bed or sofa. The thief are usually in a hurry to get out and probably don't have time to search the whole room. If you feel the place is really unsafe, unscrew the power point and hide your money there.
Safe travels guys!

So what kind of drug - warfarin?
Warfarin belongs to a group of anticoagulants - drug reduces clotting (coagulation) of blood.
Blood clotting - a complex multistageprocess, normally aimed at stopping blood loss in trauma by plugging the damaged blood vessels clot - thrombus. However, in some situations and diseases of the blood clots formed without causing traumatic injury and poor circulation (or a complete cessation of flow, if the container is large, trunk) in an organ or part thereof. If a similar situation occurs in the brain's blood vessels - it is a stroke, in the heart - a heart attack. Often thrombi formed in arteries with no large flow rate, and in the veins (such as when of varicose veins, Thrombophlebitis) where the blood flow rate is less then "rip" and transferred to the above, in the vital organs. In this case, doctors say thromboembolism.
As you know, the best treatment - is prevention. Warfarin is assigned just for the prevention of life-threatening thrombosis and thromboembolism: heart attacks, strokes, Pulmonary embolism (PE), etc.
Diseases in which you need to take warfarin
- Atrial fibrillation (AF). In this heart rhythm disturbance (namely, the left atrium) not reduced as efficiently as in normal, sinus rhythm, and in some of its areas, mostly in the so-called left atrial appendage, blood stasis is formed and then clots. Coming off these blood clots enter the bloodstream directly to the brain. Strokes occur in 20% (and this is one out of five!) Of patients with AF who were not taking anticoagulants.
- After implantation of artificial heart valves. Although the material of artificial valves is chosen the most neutral, after all this is foreign to the body object, and it can form clots. Looking up, they also get into the brain.
- After stent placement the coronary artery by coronary heart disease.
- Antiphospholipid syndrome. In this autoimmune disease specific antibodies in the body are formed, contributing among other things to increased venous thrombosis and rarely arteries.
- varicose veins lower limb thrombophlebitis, particularly the deep veins.
In this situation, warfarin is assigned temporarily toexacerbation of time. Blood clots in the veins of the lower limbs fall in pulmonary artery - pulmonary embolism develops. If the cluster is large, it occludes the artery is large, it leads to switching off a considerable part of the light and shock.
The mechanism of action of warfarin
Receiving Warfarin prevents formation of blood clots in people with a high degree of risk.
For the formation of a blood clot requires specificproteins - clotting factors. Some of these proteins produced in the liver using vitamin K. Warfarin blocks the action of vitamin K and thereby slow coagulation process and prevents the formation of thrombi.
How should I take warfarin?
In one warfarin tablet - 2.5 mg. There is quite a difficult time dose selection. It is individual for each person. No two people are alike and there is no "average" dose of warfarin. Selection can be carried out as a doctor in a hospital or outpatient, and this process requires active treatment and understanding of the purpose of participation on the part of the patient.
A goal warfarin - prolong your life in good quality.
Usually beginning with 2 tablets (5 mg). This drug should be taken at the same time of day (preferably in the evening), and not to skip.
How to monitor the effectiveness of treatment?
Unfortunately, there is not possible to rely on yoursensations, laboratory monitoring is required. This means that you need to take a blood test for clotting. Doctors are now using an indicator such as the INR (international normalized ratio). Despite its name, is nothing "wrong" is not - it's clotting time corrected for the sensitivity of the reagent.
When receiving warfarin there are so-called"Therapeutic range" - INR of 2 to 3 or 3.5 units. in some cases. This corridor must be followed: thus ensuring the maximum effectiveness of the drug, and minimal risk of side effects. What is the value you'd better stick to - the doctor decides.
By reducing the INR below 2 - no complications andno good, clots will form, ie, warfarin is meaningless. If above 3.5 - blood clots will not, but inhibited clotting too much and there is a risk of complications.
What complications can be?
In the first place - is a risk of bleeding. Severe, life-threatening bleeding occur rarely, usually when the patient has no control over INR regularly or accidentally takes too much amount of the drug, or he has hereditary changes enzymes (weakness), destroying warfarin.
We must be attentive to himself and should consult a doctor if you feel significant changes in health.
What should alert you?
- bleeding gums when brushing teeth;
- the formation of large bruises with minimal impact or no reason;
- increase the duration and intensity of menstruation;
- stomach ache;
- pink-colored urine;
- vomiting, similar to coffee grounds;
- black coloration of feces;
- nosebleeds;
- dizziness, blurred vision, weakness in the limbs, heart palpitations.
When these symptoms be sure to consult a doctor! Remember: you have to keep the INR within the 'corridor', the deviations in the one and the other side can be dangerous!
Categories patients whose risk of bleeding increased
- age over 65 years;
- having bleeding in the past;
- Stroke;
- high blood pressure;
- with chronic diseases of the liver and kidneys.
How often it is necessary to monitor the INR?
In the beginning, the selection of doses you will oftendonate blood: every 2-3 days, as the effect of Warfarin develops within two or three days, reaching a maximum of about 5 days. If within 2-3 measurements INR remains within your target value, the dose can be considered as selected. In the future you will give blood once every 2 weeks, then once a month. Unfortunately, so frequent visits to the clinic - an urgent need.
There are portable devices forINR self-determination in the home, like glucometers, - "Koagulochek". Of course, it is much more convenient, but these devices are quite expensive, in the range of 10-15 thousand rubles. Accuracy them high.
What else you need to keep in mind?
INR - figure, prone to fluctuations, evenif you take the designated number of pills regularly and on time. Its level is affected by many factors: diet, alcohol intake, condition of the liver and kidney function, treatment with other drugs.
- Diet. Here, the important flowvitamin K diet. Vitamin K is found in large amounts in plant foods: all kinds of cabbage, green tea, spinach, dill, vegetable oil, beans, etc. Increasing the proportion of these foods in the diet may attenuate the effects of warfarin and require dose adjustment..
- Alcohol. Significant cross-sectional alcohol intake increases the effects of warfarin.
- Diseases of the liver and kidneys. Chronic diseases with dysfunctionliver, kidney, with the failure of the authorities (increased transaminases 3 times or more, creatinine greater than 200 mmol / l), affect the destruction and elimination of warfarin. He can stay in the body longer than normal and may require dose reduction.
- Interaction with other drugs. There are many drugs that affect the pharmacokinetics of warfarin.
Enhances the effect of warfarin:
- non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (diclofenac, ibuprofen. aspirin);
- antibiotics (Tetracycline, metronidazole, cephalosporins, erythromycin, etc.);
- antiarrhythmics: quinidine, amiodarone;
- proton pump blockers (omeprazole, pantoprazole and so on.).
Reduce the effect of warfarin:
- antacids (Almagel, sucralfate, etc.);
- sedatives;
- cytostatics.
Dietary supplements and herbal medicines also affect the action of warfarin in one direction or another.
Be sure to consult with your doctor if there is a need to accept the above-mentioned or other drugs!
Contraindications to warfarin
- hemorrhagic stroke;
- allergy to the drug;
- active bleeding;
- a significant decrease in blood platelets and other cells;
- exacerbation of peptic ulcer, portalhypertension, renal failure, dementia, severe CNS involvement, chronic administration of NSAIDs, vascular aneurysm - is a relative contraindication to warfarin purpose, ie, the question of his appointment is determined a necessity...
In conclusion, we can say that warfarin -a drug that requires a careful and responsible attitude, and control of INR can be a bit troublesome. But warfarin - is the gold standard (and economically affordable!) The treatment of thromboembolic diseases in our country, and abroad, he saved many lives. In the appointment of warfarin number of heart attacks, strokes, pulmonary embolism is reduced by 63-75%. And it is worth a little "tinker" with him.
Be healthy!

One of the main things to pay attention to is the interaction between staff members and residents. Is it cheerful and respectful? Does it seem like the staff members really care about the residents? If you see multiple residents in the common areas or having activities, it might signal that the facility is not full, which could mean that they are expanding with a new facility.
Make sure to get a copy of the admissions contract and the resident rules. If you they seem reluctant to part with such information either they could want you to sing a confidentiality agreement stating that you by law wont share the information or you could consider it a red flag. The facility's contract outlines fees, services provided, and residents' rights, and explains who will handle medications, how and when reassessments of a resident's condition happen, and under what circumstance a resident might be asked to leave because he or she needs more services than the facility can provide.
The contract should also specify what happens after a possible hospital stay. Nursing homes are required to hold a room for Medicaid patients, but many assisted-living facilities are not. Make sure you know the rules regarding this kind of situation.
Visit at different times of day, especially around mealtimes and the early evening to see how they are managed at busy and quiet times.
Ask to speak with the residence administrator. "Even if it means coming back for another appointment, this is important," Carder says. "He or she is the person who sets the mood and philosophy of the whole place." When you meet, ask to review the facility's licensing or certification inspection report. This should be readily available to the general public and will outline any complaints or black marks the residence has received during inspections. Ask how any problems were corrected.
Also ask about who will draw up the care plan for your relative and how much input he or she and the family will have. Ask how the facility will treat your loved ones current and future needs. Specifically with diet-controlled diabetes or someone who might eventually need insulin. How do they handle that? Ask how many employees are designated to each resident. Find out if there is a licensed nurse on duty or on call at all times. Ask about the staff's training in case of emergency, what kind of routine do they have and what is their procedure for medication administration.
