Pagan Holidays (Holy Days) worldwide are coming back to a more general use and understanding, with folk often asking questions about whether Christmas is a Pagan Holiday (it is, sort of), and observing the 8-fold Wheel of the Year.
The current Neo Pagan calendar (and its primarily Wiccan holidays) is ostensibly based off the 'Celtic Wheel of the Year', as the early creators and authors of our modern traditions were very fond of their romantic notions of Celtic culture, and very sure that it was ok to just… take what they wanted, and change or use it however they wanted.
*cough* Coilíní *cough*
The problem with this (one of the problems) is that we now have a sort of tangled, much mangled, view of the original pre-christian Irish Pagan festivals, that even many Irish Pagans adhere to.
In this post, I'd like to break this down a bit, and clarify some of the basics, so that we can (hopefully), start fresh. With a somewhat cleaner slate for Irish Pagan practice. Le do thoil.
To begin with, the 'traditional' eight Pagan Holidays, are actually 2 sets of four. So the wheel of the year is maybe 2 wheels, rotating side by side.
This can be a little confusing if you're not used to considering things this way, but I do remember being quite frustrated back in my baby Pagan days by how the festivals seemed to just be copies of each other. Like, within the Wiccan traditions, there's not a huge difference between how you're celebrating the Summer Solstice (Litha) and Beltane, for example.
In my native practice, I break the focus, themes or concerns out as follows:
The Pagan Calendar names I use are in modern Irish, and the associated Gaeilge video is also my schoolgirl modern Irish pronunciation, to be clear.
Irish is a living language, and while I'm the first one to honour the Primitive Irish and Old Irish source material, they are different languages. We have modern Irish terminology for every single Pagan Holiday name, and a wealth of associated folklore and traditions within our living memory in Irish communities. So let's use that.
Admittedly now, some of the folklore has gotten crossed over and shifted around with the Christian influences, eg. Summer Solstice bonfires now happen on St. John's Eve, on the 23rd June, and the animal sacrifice tradition has moved from Samhain to St. Martin's Day, on the 11th November. But that's ok too.
At least the traditions still exist, and have grown and moved with the communities as we did.
Focus on Community, Hearth & Home, the Otherworld (an Saol Eile).
When people first walked this land, there were 2 seasons: summer and winter. They signified the change and move between camping grounds, as theirs was a Hunter/Gatherer lifestyle.
These times of moving and changing were dangerous and uncertain, and this still holds true in the primary Irish Pagan holidays of Bealtaine, and Samhain, which remain times of great change and uncertainty.
When the people settled, and began to farm the land, the seasons of Growth and Harvest were marked, with Imbolg and Lúnasa, and so began the 4 Fire Festivals.
[Download this Chart as a PDF Below]
Personally, I use the name Imbolg for this festival. That's from the Irish i mBolg, meaning 'in the belly', for the pregnancy aspects (animals as well as humans, because if we get pregnant at Bealtaine we give birth around now). Imbolc is commonly used too though, and may have associations with washing or a 'spring clean' after winter, from Folc, meaning 'bathe or wash'. I'm honestly not sure which language the term Oimelc comes from, though it's been given to mean 'ewe's milk'. That would be Bainne na Caoirigh in modern Irish though, which doesn't have quite the same ring to it.

We have this clearly in old Irish as Belltaine (with various other spellings, the manuscripts weren't always precise or standardised), meaning the month of May, or even 'the month of the beacon-fire) according to the eDIL. It may have associations with an Old Celtic God Boleros, 'the flashing one' (Ó hÓgáin) or Balar/Balor in Ireland, he of the single, blazing destructive eye (often thought to be symbolic of the sun), and form the word Bealtaine from Balor's Fire (tine).
There are multiple spellings out there, and I know some of them are based on the Gaelic language of Scotland, which I don't speak. But as we still use the word Bealtaine in modern Irish for the month of May, and again – this is a living language, and it'd be great not to have to deal with bastardised or anglicised versions of it anymore please and thank you – let's go with that eh?!
Irish Language Resource – https://www.teanglann.ie/en/fgb/Bealtaine
You'll often see this written as Lughnasadh, and indeed, I've done so myself. As above though, I prefer the modern Irish spelling, and in Gaeilge, Lúnasa is the word for the month of August. I mean, I wasn't joking about these Pagan holidays still being a part of our culture.
It's most likely connected to the Old God Lugh, (lug in old Irish can be 'magnificent, heroic, warlike': eDIL), and Lugnasad is 'the festival of Lugh, the first of August': eDil.
You'll see references too, to Lammas, which we don't have in modern Irish. My basic exploration of Old Irish suggests it MIGHT be a version of a 'fine, handsome or excellent hand' (from n. Lám and adj. Mass?)… but be warned, that is a very rudimentary look at a compound word! I definitely don't use it as a Pagan Holiday name anyway.
Irish Language Resource – https://www.teanglann.ie/en/fgb/Lúnasa
It's not pronounced Sam-Hane. Never. I don't care what your esteemed Elders passed down to you not-so-very-long-ago (in the grand scheme of things).
This is a LIVING LANGUAGE. Respect it, and the people who still speak it every day. Stop that Sam-Hane shit immediately.
It probably comes from the Old Irish samfuin, meaning 'death of Summer': eDIL. Samhain in modern Irish is the word for the month of November.
So yes, we know how to pronounce it properly. (Are you getting a sense for how many times I've had U.S. Pagans correct my pronunciation? Like, I'm not sure how to even communicate how infuriating that is, especially when it happens consistently!)
Irish Language Resource – https://www.teanglann.ie/en/fgb/Samhain
Focus on Community, Land & Sovereignty, this World (an Saol Sin – or Seo).
We know these times were important to our ancestors due, at least, to the sacred sites they constructed and used to observe and celebrate them. Massive monuments all over the island still attest to the power and value that was placed upon aligning ourselves, our communities, and our leadership, with these turning times of the Pagan year.
Please note: the common names Ostara, Litha, Mabon, and Yule, are at best culturally appropriated and co-opted into Neo Paganism, and at worst, carry entirely fabricated pseudo histories. I'm looking at you, Mabon.
They have NO place in native Irish paganism.
The Irish names below are simply the names of our seasons, as Gaeilge, and have always suited my personal practice around the Irish Pagan Holidays best.

If you'd like more detail on any of the Irish Pagan Holidays, comment below and let me know. There's already extensive sections in my books (see Publications – coming soon), but I can try and get some more blog posts and YouTube videos together for them if there's an interest, and maybe even a wee course through our Irish Pagan School.
Let me know which of the Pagan holidays you want to see more on?!
When I first went 'public' with this over 3 years ago, it seemed a novel idea to many folks, and maybe a little bit… extreme or some shit?
But it's always made sense to me, for a few reasons:
So, this is how it works.
I check for the astronomical data on new moons on Irish time in October and November.
The night before a listed new moon is the dark moon – there's usually a 3 day period of 'New Moon' that's actually the very last sliver of the old moon, then the dark moon, then the very first sliver of the new moon.
The dates are simple and clear this year (2017), the New Moon is Thursday 19th October at 8.36pm Irish Time, so tomorrow is the Dark Moon – Wednesday 18th. In November, the New Moon is on Saturday 18th at 7.51am, so the Dark Moon on Friday 17th, and that clearly encompasses the calendar date of 31st October in the middle.
Sometimes the dates are a little less clear, so I always just pick the dark moon to dark moon that has the 31st October somewhere in there between them.
Mostly, my practice involves showing up consistently. It's one of my '3 Cs' of spiritual work:
Exactly what work I'll be doing when I show up every day through my Samhain cycle varies from year to year.
Currently, I know it definitely involves morning tending and prayer at the Mórrígan altar (click for more info that) before my household wakes, continuing with my 'Get in the Sea once in each 7 day period' for at least the full run of this (I'm hoping for the sake of my poor, frostbitten fingers that I will be able to shelve that one at east 'til the warmer weather once Samhain is done), and I'll need to get out with bare feet on the earth under the sky and see the moon, every single night.
I've a few other ideas as to what I might have to do… but I'm hoping they're not necessary. Still holding out hope for an easy life over here someday, as I'm pretty sure this shouldn't be approached like the Ordeal Olympics with folk vying for who has the most hard-core contractual load being placed on them.
Essentially, I'm lazy as fuck, and if I wasn't being God-bothered to do this stuff, I'd be tucked up in my Batman jammies and cozy toes slippers, HAPPY OUT.
Anyway, I'll keep ye posted how the Samhain cycle progresses, but be prepared for me being even more than usually grumpy with the Mórrígan, and now Manannán Mac Lir (click for more info on him) for good measure, as I get even more God-bothered into doing shit I don't want to be doing, and don't even really understand why I have to do be doing it.
How's your Halloween season shaping up?!
No, it's not ok to pronounce it Sam-Hane…
"How can I be substantial if I do not cast a shadow? I must have a dark side also if I am to be whole" ? C.G. Jung
In Irish (Gaeilge), it's pronounced Sow-wen, with sow as in female pig. It's a word that has a huge cultural and historical foundation as well as a place in modern spoken Irish language as the calendar word for the month of November.
You don't get to just take someone else's heritage and language and change the pronunciation because it's 'how you've always said it'. Don't do that.
Out of all the Pagan festivals, this one is most specificially rooted in Irish traditions, and is perhaps the most bastardised by modern culture around 'Halloween'… so forgive my grumpiness? As Pagans, we can do better. So let's start by saying it right.
(Unless you're Scottish; they got their own pronunciation stuff going on.)
Samhain time, for me, runs Dark Moon to Dark Moon. As most of you will know by now, the Goddess I work for is kinda dark. Known for it like. We see lots of quotes and comments around at this time of year about facing the darkness, and coming through it to the light, and I get that. I do. Some of that is due to the turning of summer to winter of course, but there's also a whole pile of crap about living in the light only, and that's not right.
Why is darkness a bad thing?
I live in the darkness. This is where the real magic happens, the formative creation.
Can the light catch that first push from inside the seed? The first unseen growth always happens in the darkness – the plan is formed, the form is set, the energy is gathered.
Samhain, in Irish lore, is the shifting time from summer into winter, from light to dark. Historically, it's the time of year that outside active summer work and chores change to inside passive winter work, planning and preparing.
Sam and Gam are the 2 words in old Irish which denote summer and winter – the original seasonal shift going back to days when the hunter gatherer people of Ireland changed from summer to winter camps as part of their annual tribal cycles. Before industry, before agriculture, before settlement… our ancestors were between their seasonal worlds at this time of the year.
That time of change can be dangerous. While we move, before things settle into their new patterns, we can lose our way. Change is especially difficult for the vulnerable in a tribe – old comforts and security lost, new spaces bring new dangers, seen and unseen. The old, the young, the sick and the weak, all at risk as we shift and move towards settling down again.
And when we are moving from light towards darkness? Respect is due and care should be taken, for human form is somewhat fragile in body and mind. Between times, between places, is the boundary. The liminal space that holds stronger magic.
Magic is change, and change is inherent in between.
So Samhain, from the oldest times in Ireland, is a dangerous, magical time. When we moved to agriculture, tough decisions had to be made with supplies set to dwindle during the winter, on what animals would live and what would die. Perhaps even for the people, in lean years the best rations had to be set aside for the strongest to survive, so facing the dark year could mean facing your death.
Thoughts still turn to death in earnest at this festival, with our subconscious and even ancestral memories influencing our conscious minds. This naturally brings about memories of those who have ready passed through to the Otherworld from this one.
Many homes in Ireland still lay the 'dumb supper' – the placement of one full meal on Samhain night (that is, the 31st), at the family's table. This usually consisted of a dinner in the evening, with an empty chair available, for any passing spirits who might drop in. The windows and doors are left unlocked all night (by those who deem it safe to do so, now).
These customs are given as a sign of welcome for the ancestors that are about at this time of year. The extra meal is left outside when the family has finished their meal. None of the living may consume the food meant for the dead; it was said that they would be barred from partaking of it after their own death if they were greedy enough to touch it while living.
The theme of honouring the dead, and aiding them in any way possible, is very prominent – maybe because of the significant reminder that as we are coming into the time of death, it may be us who pass on before too long. There may have been an element of hedging our bets, so to speak, by being polite and utterly respectful to the dead spirits, and the spirits of death, at this time.
For your own practice this year, why not take the time between the dark moon just before Samhain, to the dark moon after (you can find your local phases of the moon here) and set up an altar to your ancestors – either physical bloodlines or spiritual/community? Those elders and ancients who have made an impact on your life, who you would like to honour at this time when they are close enough to more easily commune with.
Will your ancestor altar be indoors or outdoors? What will you put on your altar – pictures, memorabilia, items that remind your senses of that person? How will you observe a practice at the altar each day – what will you say or do before it?
If you are making offerings, think about things that involve a little work or sacrifice on your part, not just cheap wine from the shops that has no relevance to them or meaning for you.
An offering can be a physical item that you place by the altar in observance and respect, or it can be an act you perform – volunteering at a charity relevant to them for example – or work you do that they would appreciate, that honours their spirit.
Why not post about your altar or offering ideas and descriptions in the comments, and share your seasonal observances with the community for Samhain time? We'd love to hear from you!

With a tsunami of regulation, the digital revolution, and increased competition, private banks and asset managers are preparing for a wave of mergers and acquisitions. The smaller companies in particular feel that they are a sitting target. "All diversity is at risk of being lost".
These days, thanks to the ambitious Supernova-festival, Antwerp's "Little Island" is the epicentre of state-of-the-art financial technology. But at the Antwerp brokerage firm Van Goolen & Co, a few hundred meters further in the shade of St. Paul's Church, there is little sign of the digital revolution which has caused such seismic shifts in the financial sector.
No omnichannel strategy, unique app or other hip buzzwords at this tiny office, which has a client portfolio of about 50 million euro. The Antwerp house, founded in 1920, remains resolutely "old-school": placing stock market orders or selling stocks via telephone or after a client visit to the office. The website of Van Goolen & Co comprises only one page, containing only the office's switchboard number.
'The new internet platforms have their own audience,' says manager Jan De Cleir. 'Our great advantage is that we can rely on a very loyal clientele. These are people who prefer to directly speak to someone they know well rather than sit in front of a computer screen to place an order. That said, our clientele is somewhat older and it's no simple matter to attract younger people. But the older clients also have children, who eventually come knocking at our door. Unless there is some big catastrophe, and as long as no more absurd European rules are dreamed up, I see us celebrating our centenary in 2020.
And so while Goolen & Co is well-equipped for the future, the dozens of private banks, asset managers and brokerage firms around the country are experiencing much more nervous moments. For a long time it seemed that this sort of company, which primarily focuses on wealthy clients, was buffered from all upheavals in the financial sector. But in the meantime, even the most fashionable houses must do their homework in order to endure.
Unlike the traditional banks, the burdensome mix of strict regulation, enforced digitisation and historically low interest margins are putting the revenue model of the smaller players under pressure. That has already brought about some remarkable deals. In July, the British Duet took over the Antwerp asset manager Merit Capital. A month later, the Dutch ABN AMRO acquired the Belgian private banking arm of Société Générale. The Bruges brokerage firm Weghsteen is also up for grabs. This has come about because the regulator National Bank became concerned about the course of events at the loss-making broker.
According to most experts, that's just the beginning of a much larger wave of mergers and takeovers in the sector. When you ask why, you'll quickly hear the five-letter word which is these days giving bankers nightmares: MiFID. This European regulation for the protection of investors is not new: it is for example the reason why you must fill out a questionnaire when you want to buy a share.
However, the revised MiFID rules, which have been in effect since the start of the year, go much further. The era of lifting the phone to quickly discuss an investment idea with tour banker or advisor is over. If your banker or asset manager wants to give advice, the new regulations mean that you must provide a detailed report - even the date of the call must be notified - and before an order is actually placed, it must be checked whether everything matches the client's risk profile.
The paperwork and costs which all of this entails are already a heavy burden for the big players. 'But if you have a small business with about five employees, the measures put great pressure on your organisation', remarks Victor Zwart, CEO of the Brussels asset management firm Wealtheon. 'You're obliged to have a risk manager, a compliance officer...these are people that you can't use for commercial tasks. The fact that everything is meticulously monitored is understandable. But that doesn't always make things run more efficiently.'
'Of course, there is still space for smaller, independent establishments', relates Sam Adams, Managing Director of the Kortrijk brokerage firm Lawaisse. 'We see that in our returns and in the fact that the influx of our clients is still rising. Investment firms and asset management companies which are heavily dependent on investment advice have seen their working environment change considerably. That requires a strong focus from our board of directors, which must adapt its strategy accordingly.
The new consumer regulations are already causing some players to ask themselves whether they want to give advice at all any more. 'For economic reasons, we only still give advice to major clients', says Erik Peeters, manager of Antwerp's Leo Stevens & Cie. 'We continue to see this kind of service provision as our raison d'être. However, the reality is that out of pure necessity, many players are beginning to focus on only selling various investment products. But it's here that the larger players have the advantage. The diversity which previously existed in our branch is at risk of disappearing'.
When the personnel of a private bank leave after a takeover, they usually take the clients with them. Then you're left with an empty shell.
'The absolute minimum requirements to compete in the business are now significantly higher', confirms Yves Van Laecke, Head of Private Banking and Asset Management at Nagelmackers Bank. 'Not just because the regulation has become stricter and more complex in the last months, but also because players must invest in new IT applications. You must have ever more assets under management in order to keep up, with the consequence that some groups are throwing in the towel.'
'We are regularly approached by asset managers who want to combine forces', says Victor Zwart of Wealtheon. 'We've just had a first discussion with a small group which has a portfolio of 200 million euro. And last year we were even approached by a Belgian party who wanted to merge with us. But we want to continue under our own steam.'
Client list under the pillow
Analysts have long been predicting a wave of takeovers in the branch. But so far, this Big Bang hasn't come to pass. 'Also, don't forget that closing this sort of deal is much harder than it appears', says an insider.
'When you take over another private bank or asset manager, you must also ask what the company's personnel will be doing on the long term. When people leave, they usually take with them the clients with whom they've built up a relationship over the years. Some bankers carry around a list with the contact details of their most important clients. You'd think they have it under their pillow. When such people leave after a takeover, you're left with an empty shell.'
Old-style client retention thus remains key. All the same, bankers should not underestimate the extent to which new digital applications can disrupt their business, says Kasper Peters of the Deloitte consultancy. As soon as clients start to take certain new services, such as a comprehensive mobile app with real-time overview of their investment portfolio, as a given, it gets tougher for companies who haven't kept up with the trend.
Wealtheon boss Zwart is certainly aware of this. 'Digitisation is of course important. But your reaction to the trend will also depend on your size. We have already had visits from consultants who propose that we invest a hundred thousand euro in new technology. We responded politely that such costs outweigh the benefits for us. The situation is of course different for larger competitors. They see digitisation above all as a means to increase their profitability and win more clients at a lower cost price. That presumably has an impact on the sector.'
Moreover, the traditional private banks most pay ever greater attention to some newcomers in the branch. Houses such as Argenta or Crelan, who until now were inactive in this niche, are now also looking for opportunities and are seeking new revenue streams, says Van Laecke.
'Within five years from now, the landscape will look completely different. Some years back, banks tried to win a greater market share for savings books. In the meantime, everything is revolving around cheap credit. The margins have become wafer-thin, shifting the emphasis to investment products. The fact that people are being encouraged to invest more is of course a good thing, but we must ensure that we watch out that no price war erupts that will threaten the profitability of the sector'.
Remarkable: according to many insiders, the National Bank is also steering a wave of consolidation among the Belgian asset managers. They see evidence of this in the fact that the Bruges-based Weghsteen itself is in the shop-window, following pressure from the regulators. 'Both the National Bank and the stock market watchdog are starting to more closely scrutinise smaller asset management companies and brokerage firms', relates a banker, who requested to remain anonymous.
'After what happened with Optima, it seems to me to be simple logic. I also think that there are still companies where the steering and professional management must be organised. A board of directors was previously little more than an excuse to sit down together for a glass. But such times are over. Now, reality forces you to work hard at such meetings on such dry subjects as financial regulation.'
Other asset managers are starting to grumble about the stricter approach of the regulators. The feel that they are being targeted, and suspect that the National Bank is gearing towards a further scaling-up in the sector. 'Look at the fines that are levied. Two years ago, Merit Capital had to pay the FSMA 120,000 euro because they breached some rules by placing advertisements for investment funds on their website', says an anonymous source. 'But when BNP Paribas Fortis, the largest bank in the country, allowed a cousin of Gaddafi to buy bulletproof vests using one of their accounts over years, they only had to cough up 300,000 euro. The regulators are disproportionately focusing on smaller brokerage firms.'

Meet The Hotel's Architect G.M. Miller
Pictured Above: close up picture of Gladstone Gargoyle, in the Richardson Romanesque style.
It's always a treat to be gifted a piece of the Gladstone Hotel's 131-year history. Another exciting #tbt has just been added to our archive: Meet G.M. Miller, architect of the Gladstone Hotel!
Miller's list of architectural work is impressive, with the Gladstone being one of the first buildings he designed throughout his long career.
Built in 1889, the hotel is designed in the Romanesque Revival style, widely popular in Toronto at the turn of the 20th century. Think Queen's Park and the historic houses around St. George and Bloor.
Whether or not they know the ins and outs of Romanesque reliefs, most Torontononians will recognize many other G.M. Miller's buildings throughout the city. His oeuvres range from many family houses to larger facilities such as apartments, churches, educational buildings. including libraries, factories, warehouses, office and bank buildings. (See more from the U of T Library).
Parkdale Collegiate Institute? That was G.M. Miller.
Massey Hall? G.M. Miller was a supporting architect.
U of T's Lillian Massey Building (corner of Bloor & Queen's Park/Avenue Rd.)? You guessed it: G.M. Miller!
In a city where so much is changing every year, it's important to take a minute and look back at the history, and the historical figures, who helped build Toronto as we know it today. G.M. Miller's work shaped a significant part of our cityscape, including the Gladstone Hotel. It's a history the hotel is honoured to be a part of, and one that we look forward to contributing to over the next 128 years too!
Want to learn more about our building and neighbourhood? Join our community on Instagram where we post #tbts from our archives, share stories from the city, and look forward to upcoming events and happening!

Michael Fritz switches races, will run for House 74 instead of Montgomery mayor
The US Justice Department accused Alabama's state prisons of regularly violating the constitutional rights of inmates by failing to protect them from violence and sexual abuse. Wochit
Someone isn't running for mayor of Montgomery.
Michael Fritz, a mayoral candidate until Tuesday morning, announced at a forum for the municipal election that he was dropping out to run for Alabama's House District 74. The seat opened after Rep. Dimitri Polizos died suddenly in late March.
Fritz, a bankruptcy lawyer, will run against Charlotte Meadows in the Republican primary. Rayford Mack, who previously ran for the seat against Polizos, will run as a Democrat.
More: Two candidates emerge in race to fill vacant Alabama House District 74 seat
"The decision was made last night," he said, addressing a crowd of retired teachers that had gathered early morning to listen to a group of mayoral candidates. Fritz said, in recent days, several people had reached out to him asking that he switch races.
The lawyer took the opportunity to address the crowd for his statehouse campaign, saying his experience in the legal field be a boon to his run. Fritz said he will focus on smart spending of the tax, bolstering retirement for teachers and proposed repealing the state's sales tax.
Speaking to a crowd of teachers, Fritz made sure to hit on the idea of crippling student debt and low pay that is endemic among teachers throughout the country.
When asked about a repeal of the grocery tax, Fritz deferred toward his plan to pull back on the sales tax.

Our Auntie Mary always knows how to make a household of sickies feel better!
And loved!
Daddy needed some peace and quiet to try and get some work done, and I am feeling somewhat better. Elizabeth's been asking to go visit the Agriculture Museum every day since she got better. Multiple times a day. So when she asked me today if she could go "walking outside to see the animals", I agreed.
Elizabeth was so excited she didn't take a proper nap. Oops.
We arrived to discover BABY PIGS! It's true. Mama had twelve babies around noon today. Apparently she just popped them out one after the other. One baby immediately tried to get back in! By the time we arrived they were all happily nursing. Elizabeth was fascinated. Perhaps not as fascinated as her Mommy though. It's a good thing piglets grow up to be less cute, or I'd never be able to eat pork again.
When the museum closed, I explained (as I do) that the cows had to go to bed. Elizabeth agreed to go home and find Daddy. But we didn't even get out of the parking lot before Elizabeth suddenly piped up: "Mommy! Mommy dear! Mommy!" "Yes, Elizabeth?" I replied. "I NEED to see the cows!!!", she said.
Of course, when Auntie Janice asked her what she had seen today, Elizabeth claimed to have seen "AIRPLANES". Kids.
Elizabeth appears to have completely recovered from her recent bout of sickness. That must mean it's Daddy's turn. What better way to celebrate Spring? It's a new family tradition!
I was scheduled to look after cousin Erika while little sister went for a follow-up appointment at CHEO. Since I was feeling fine, I thought everything would be fine as long as we didn't bring Erika to our house. BAD idea.
Despite my desire to see baby pigs I decided to avoid the animals (and smells) and took the girls to visit the Aviation museum. Erika and and Elizabeth had a wonderful time. I did not. Shortly after we arrived I started to feel unwell. Luckily Auntie Janice was working and I was able to leave the girls with her while I visited the facilities. I can now report that of all the places to be taken violently ill, the Aviation Museum is not bad.
Auntie Janice drove poor moaning me home at the end of her shift, complete with large garbage bag "just in case". Luckily I didn't need it.
The two girls fell asleep in the car on the way home. Elizabeth didn't notice Erika was missing until saying her prayers at bedtime. "Hey!" she said. "Where Erika go?"
I can't resist putting Elizabeth's hair "up". She doesn't always let me, but asking her if she wants "princess hair" usually works. Luckily she still thinks my efforts are cute!
Apparently March winds are ill winds for us, but so far only Elizabeth is determined to repeat last year's extreme dieting program. Last night she had a popsicle for supper. It brought the only big smile of the day, but we regretted it later.
She did otherwise sleep well so we felt brave enough to let her have some breakfast. She ate two bites of pancake and then declared she needed a nap. She slept for two hours, threw up, then changed beds and slept for another four hours. I discovered that she likes to listen to classical music when she's sick, but nothing with too much violin.
She perked up around 6pm and insisted on going for a walk outside. Everything is melting and our daffodils are starting to poke through the ground! Elizabeth and I admired bird and raccoon tracks in the mud. The raccoon tracks were full of little plastic shavings from our green bin...

McColgan and Wanders deliver winning performances on the roads
European indoor 3000m bronze medallist Eilish McColgan will look back on 2017 with great pride and now she has another victory - and another course record - to go with her superb success.
McColgan was all smiles once again on Sunday when she won the Percy Pud 10k in Sheffield in 32:32, defending her title and once more smashing the course record. She took nine seconds off her time from last year as she finished second overall as Andrew Heyes won the men's race in 29:42.
Felt a little strange running an entire 10K in 2nd place (from gun to tape..bar about 100m! ) but loved returning to Percy Pud this year to better the course record! @andrewrheyes was just a little too quick to use as a pacemaker.. setting a course record ! pic.twitter.com/TXvTSaxlOS
— Eilish Mccolgan (@EilishMccolgan) December 3, 2017
Her mother Liz's victory in the 10,000m at the IAAF World Championships in Tokyo in 1991 remains one of the greatest front-running performances of all-time but Eilish is now carving out her own reputation and will be surely be looking towards the podium next summer at the Berlin 2018 European Athletics Championships.
Tenth in the 5000m at the IAAF World Championships in London, McColgan then broke her personal best for the distance a few weeks later in Brussels when she ran a Scottish record of 14:48.49 to move to fourth on the British all-time lists behind Paula Radcliffe, Jo Pavey and Zola Budd.
It was one of seven personal best times she has achieved in 2017, the others being 1500m (4:01.60), 3000m (8:31.00), 10,000m (32:10.59), 10km (32:01) and indoors, 1500m (4:19.99) and 3000m (8:43.02).
McColgan was so much in command on Sunday, winning by almost three minutes from Calli Thackeray (35:16) and Sarah Lowery (36:25).
Wanders makes it a hat-trick on the roads
In Geneva on Saturday, Switzerland's Julien Wanders produced one of the best results of his young career when he won over 7.32km for victory in the 40th edition of the Course de l'Escalade.
It was a record day at the event with 45,000 runners taking part and Wanders, 21, triumphed in 20:59 as he beat Kenya's Fredrick Kipkosgei (21:08) with French steeplechaser Yoann Kowal the next best European in sixth in 21:46.
This was his third victory in as many weekends having recently won the Basel City Run 7.55km and the Corrida Bulloise 8km but it was actually the colours of Kenya which crossed the line first as Wanders was wearing their vest.
Speaking to Le Matin, he said: "I could have run with the classic blue jersey but I found it more cool to put on the one from Kenya. There was no backstory. I just wanted to do a dedication to my training partners."
In the women's race, Britain's Stephanie Twell (24:03) was third and Switzerland's Fabienne Schlumpf was fourth (23:52) as Ethiopian Helen Bekele (23:50) beat Kenya's Magdalene Masai by two seconds.
McCormack sharpens up for Samorin
The SPAR European Cross Country Championships in Samorin, Slovakia on 10 December is very much the last major event on the calendar and while for many it is a time of fine-tuning, Ireland's Fionnuala McCormack ensured she remained as competitive as ever.
A two-time gold medallist at the championships, McCormack will look to make an impression again and she will head to Slovakia for her 15th appearance in the event on the back of winning the Jingle Bells 5km in Dublin in 16:01.
Staying with the festive theme in Switzerland, Portugal's Bruno Albuquerque (25:07) won the men's race at the 30th Gossau Christmas Run over 8.5km with home success in the women's race as two-time European indoor 800m champion Selina Buchel stepped up in distance to triumph in 29:03.

Agriculture is highly sensitive to climate variability and weather extremes, such as droughts, floods and severe storms. The forces that shape our climate are also critical to farm productivity. Human activity has already changed atmospheric characteristics such as temperature, rainfall, levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) and ground level ozone. The scientific community expects such trends to continue. While food production may benefit from a warmer climate, the increased potential for droughts, floods and heat waves will pose challenges for farmers. Additionally, the enduring changes in climate, water supply and soil moisture could make it less feasible to continue crop production in certain regions.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2007) concluded:
Recent studies indicate that increased frequency of heat stress, droughts and floods negatively affect crop yields and livestock beyond the impacts of mean climate change, creating the possibility for surprises, with impacts that are larger, and occurring earlier, than predicted using changes in mean variables alone. This is especially the case for subsistence sectors at low latitudes. Climate variability and change also modify the risks of fires, pest and pathogen outbreak, negatively affecting food, fiber and forestry.
Climate FactorsSeveral factors directly connect climate change and agricultural productivity:
- Average temperature increase
- Change in rainfall amount and patterns
- Rising atmospheric concentrations of CO2
- Pollution levels such as tropospheric ozone
- Change in climatic variability and extreme events
Average temperature increase: An increase in average temperature can 1) lengthen the growing season in regions with a relatively cool spring and fall; 2) adversely affect crops in regions where summer heat already limits production; 3) increase soil evaporation rates, and 4) increase the chances of severe droughts.
Change in rainfall amount and patterns: Changes in rainfall can affect soil erosion rates and soil moisture, both of which are important for crop yields. The IPCC predicts that precipitation will increase in high latitudes, and decrease in most subtropical land regions—some by as much as about 20 percent. While regional precipitation will vary the number of extreme precipitation events is predicted to increase (IPCC, 2007).
Rising atmospheric concentrations of CO2: Increasing atmospheric CO2 levels, driven by emissions from human activities, can act as a fertilizer and enhance the growth of some crops such as wheat, rice and soybeans. CO2 can be one of a number of limiting factors that, when increased, can enhance crop growth. Other limiting factors include water and nutrient availability. While it is expected that CO2 fertilization will have a positive impact on some crops, other aspects of climate change (e.g., temperature and precipitation changes) may temper any beneficial CO2 fertilization effect (IPCC, 2007).
Pollution levels such as tropospheric ozone: Higher levels of ground level ozone limit the growth of crops. Since ozone levels in the lower atmosphere are shaped by both emissions and temperature, climate change will most likely increase ozone concentrations. Such changes may offset any beneficial yield effects that result from elevated CO2 levels.
Change in climatic variability and extreme events: Changes in the frequency and severity of heat waves, drought, floods and hurricanes, remain a key uncertainty in future climate change. Such changes are anticipated by global climate models, but regional changes and the potential affects on agriculture are more difficult to forecast.
Implications for North AmericaThe IPCC concluded that, for North America as a whole (IPCC, 2007):
Moderate climate change will likely increase yields of North American rain fed agriculture, but with smaller increases and more spatial variability than in earlier estimates. Most studies project likely climate-related yield increases of 5-20 percent over the first decades of the century, with the overall positive effects of climate persisting through much or all of the 21st century.
- Food production is projected to benefit from a warmer climate, but there probably will be strong regional effects, with some areas in North America suffering significant loss of comparative advantage to other regions.
- The U.S. Great Plains/Canadian Prairies are expected to be particularly vulnerable.
- Crops that are currently near climate thresholds (e.g., wine grapes in California) are likely to suffer decreases in yields, quality, or both.
- Climate change is expected to improve growing conditions for some crops that are limited by length of growing season and temperature. (e.g. fruit production in the Great Lakes region and eastern Canada).
The U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP) has commissioned a federal study on the potential effects of climate change on agriculture. The USGCRP Synthesis and Assessment Product 4.3 will address the following questions:
- What factors influencing agriculture, land resources, water resources, and biodiversity in the United States are sensitive to climate and climate change?
- How could changes in climate exacerbate or ameliorate stresses on agriculture, land resources, water resources, and biodiversity?
- What are the indicators of these stresses?
- What current and potential observation systems could be used to monitor these indicators?
- Can observation systems detect changes in agriculture, land resources, water resources, and biodiversity that are caused by climate change, as opposed to being driven by other causal activities?

Value Market Research reveals its latest publication on the Global CAR T Cell Therapy Market which offers the forecast of the market size from 2017 to 2024. This study demonstrates that the global CAR T cell therapy market was valued USD 150 MN (by revenue) in 2017 and is anticipated to reach USD 1,581.2 MN by 2024 with a CAGR of 40%. The prime objective of this report is to provide a detailed analysis of the key market trend along with the current and future industry scenario.
Car T- cell therapy uses the immune system to help fight against cancer cells. Basically, CARs are made up of an antibody-derived fragment that recognizes tumor antigens attached to costimulatory molecules that promote T cell expansion and persistence. Car T- cell therapy is done by collecting blood via a process called apheresis or leukapheresis. In this process T-cells are separated from rest of the blood, then the extracted T-cells are engineered specifically to attack B-cell lymphoma cells. After which, the engineered T-cells multiplied and given to the cancer patient through an IV infusion. Car T- cell is a complex treatment and can cause severe side effects sometimes.
The report - "Global CAR T Cell Therapy Market Report By Targeted Antigen (CD 19, CD 20, GD2, CD22, CD30, CD33, HER1, HER2, Meso, Egfrvlll And Others), By Therapeutic Application (Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia, Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, Non Hodgkin Leukemia, Multiple Myeloma, Pancreatic Cancer, Neuroblastoma, Breast Cancer, Acute Myeloid Leukemia, Hepatocellular, Carcinoma, Colorectal Cancer And Others) And By Regions - Industry Trends, Size, Share, Growth, Estimation, And Forecast, 2017-2024"evaluates the present scenario and the growth prospects of the regional market.Further, the report describes the segmentation based on the targeted antigen, therapeutic application, and region.
Car T-cells therapy has emerged as a potent and viable therapeutic intervention to remove the cancer cells with fewer side-effects. Rising number of cancer patients showing negative response towards other alternative treatment followed by increasing government initiatives for promoting research for cell therapy is fueling the industry expansion. Furthermore, rising number of global players collaborating and signing research as well as manufacturing agreement for CAR-T cell therapies with local players is again expected to foster the market growth. Also, expanding biotechnology and life science sector coupled with the advancement in the cell therapy and gene therapy has supported the market growth immensely.
Target antigen is further categorized into CD 19, CD 20, GD2, CD22, CD30, CD33, HER1, HER2, Meso, Egfrvlll, and others. CD 19 is currently leading the segment owing to its efficacy in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Also, rising cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia among the population have raised its demand to be utilized for cancer therapy. The therapeutic application covers acute lymphocytic leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, non-hodgkin leukemia, multiple myeloma, pancreatic cancer, neuroblastoma, breast cancer, acute myeloid leukemia, hepatocellular, carcinoma, colorectal cancer and others. Among which, acute lymphocytic leukemia is dominating the segment owing to the continuous growing cases of cancer among children and adults.
Regional segmentation covers North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. North America is ruling the global CAR T cell therapy market owing to a large number of patients suffering from cancer in the U.S. and Canada. Also, increasing investment in research for the development of cancer therapies is again expected to stimulate the market growth in the region.

Skip to 0 minutes and 12 secondsHello, and welcome back. Last week, we looked at feasting and dining at Hampton Court Palace. And at the end of last week, we invited you to create your own Tudor dish and share your experience with other learners. How did it turn out? We hope you're looking forward to more hands-on experiments and cookery challenges from the comfort of your own kitchen, because this week, we're looking at Elizabeth I, and we're going to the Tower of London.
Skip to 0 minutes and 44 secondsElizabeth I came to the throne in 1558, and she ruled until 1603. She was Gloriana, and the Tower, for her, was both a great palace and a terrifying prison. It was a symbol of power. It helped her rule her expanding empire, because she put anyone here who didn't agree with her. But it was also a terrifying place. She herself had been imprisoned here as a princess, just 21, by her half-sister Mary I. So what was it like to be here as a prisoner? What did you eat in this palace, this prison? One of these prisoners we're going to really look at this week is Sir Walter Ralegh, and he used to sit just here.
Skip to 1 minute and 27 secondsWe're delighted to be joined by Heston Blumenthal, superstar chef and historic gastronomy expert. Heston's going to be looking into Sir Walter Ralegh's Great Cordial, a strange concoction of over 40 ingredients. Join Heston in making your own version at home and saying to yourself after drinking it, do I feel any better at all? So let's get started.
Welcome to Week 2
Welcome back! We're delighted Week 1 has left you with an appetite for more. We hope you enjoyed exploring Tudor feasting from the Kitchens at Hampton Court Palace.
This week we explore the eating and dining habits of Elizabeth I and prisoners at the iconic Tower of London. In this video Kate will give a bird's-eye view of what's in store, which includes a celebrity guest chef.
Throughout this week you might notice the spelling of Sir Walter Ralegh's name. This is the set spelling at Historic Royal Palaces, as it is thought that Ralegh himself spelt his name in this way.
Don't forget to mark this Step as complete before you move on.

If you're reading this article, you probably have some interest in owning an EatGatherLove franchise. That being the case, you're going to want to become familiar with one of the most important parts of the due diligence phase of the process – the FDD review. The following is the "Reader's Digest" version of the legal part of the process – the basics.
To start with, let's make sure you understand the basics.
First, each franchise company in the USA is required to produce a Franchise Disclosure Document, better known as an FDD. This is a Federal Trade Commission rule and some states even have extra rules franchisors have to adhere too. These are called 'registration' states. EatGatherLove will tell you if you're in a registration state.
Next, each FDD follows a set format, which makes it really easy for you to compare each company's offering. This format is broken down into "Items". So, for example, the Item 7 in each company's FDD would be the section where they lay out how much the total investment will be for the franchise and what you're paying for. If you compare Wendy's Item 7 to McDonald's Item 7, they'll each show details of the same info. Handy, right?
What to look for?
- Start with the company info. Each major leader in the company is required to list their background and last 5 year's work history. While you'll usually find that the founders have tons of experience in the industry that the franchise serves, you want to make sure that there is strong support from the franchising industry as well. It's not enough that they understand just how their industry works. They must also have experience selecting the right franchisees and providing support to their franchisees.
- You'll also want to look for any bankruptcy issues from the senior team. It could be that they just had some bad luck but you can and should inquire so you can make sure it's not a repeating theme.
- Franchisors are also required to list any material litigation pending or past as this too could be a sign of an unstable franchise.
- Skipping ahead a bit, you'll see that a copy of the financial reports are attached. If you're not adept at reading this information, take it to your accountant and ask for their opinion on the company's financial health.
Now, about those "Items"
While you surely want to read the entire FDD, there are several areas in the offering you'll want to pay close attention to:
- Items 4-5-6. This is where they'll list all the expenses associated with running the business. Pay close attention to this and start making some financial projections of your own on the business. Ask the company if they have a blank spreadsheet formatted to their concept to save you some time.
- Item 7 – The 'Total Investment'. It'll likely be a rather broad range to account for any unusual situations. Make sure you ask their franchisees what they spent so you won't have any surprises as you go through your own opening process.
- Item 8 – Restrictions on products you use in the business. This is where they'll tell you about any products or services they require you to use, and whether they make a profit on your use of them. Make sure these items are reasonable and customary to the operation and that you'll be paying the same or less than what you'd pay if you were an independent operator.
- Item 19 – The big one! This is where the franchisor can make a FPR – Franchise Performance Representation. In fact, this is the ONLY place they can make any kind of earnings claim. If a franchisor makes a claim that's not in this Item 19, they could be committing franchise fraud, so you'll find that reputable franchisors are very careful about how they present financial performance. Usually historical, FPR's come in many shapes and sizes. Some franchisors rollup results from a large group of stores, some break the data down into high-medium-low performing groups. Regardless of how they do it, you should devote a big chunk of your time getting familiar with this data and using it as a benchmark to compare against when you start talking with their franchisees. It's too easy to believe the "hype" of a franchise and forget that the numbers MUST make sense.
- Item 20 – Franchise growth over the past few (minimum 3) years. This is a great indicator of how well the existing franchisees are doing. If a large portion of stores have closed, you'll see that here. Also, if a large number of stores have been transferred or reverted to "company owned", that may be a sign that the franchisor has been struggling and took over stores it couldn't support.
It's important to note that the wording throughout the document will be written heavily in favor of the franchisor. Should this be a concern? Naturally, you don't want to sign a document that's unfair, but this is an area where franchising simply differs from many other types of legal arrangement. Because you'll be sharing the franchise company's brand with many other franchisees, they – the franchisor – must have a strongly worded document that allows them to quickly take action against a bad operator. You want them to be able to protect the common name you all operate under. After you get a look at a number of FDD's, you'll see that they all have pretty strongly worded language, especially when it comes to protecting their brand.
Should you hire an attorney to review the FDD?
By all means, EatGatherLove recommends you do, it pays to have a professional review of the document for you. BUT, make certain your attorney is a franchise industry attorney. It's a highly specialized area of law and not something an outsider will easily understand. And paying an outsider to get up to speed is not money well spent. Franchisors are required to give you the FDD at least 2 weeks before you can sign a franchise agreement but don't hesitate to ask for it as soon as possible so you can do your homework. Once you're fluent on the legal side of things, you'll want to start your validation process. Only by doing your homework can you be well informed enough to make a decision about a franchise. Ask lots of questions, takes lots of notes, and be diligent in your pursuit of a franchise and you're much more likely to make the right decision.

India will be playing a Five one day international series with New Zealand in New Zealand. If India wanted a dress rehearsal for the World Cup in England, this is the one. The pitch and overhead conditions will be similar to England. The ground sizes and the style of play will also be closer to what India will encounter in England. So, the cricket aficionados will watch these five games with a lot of interest. This series could tell us the second favorite for the World Cup, after the top favorite being England.
My mind races back to the series in New Zealand in 2003, that took place before the 2003 World Cup in South Africa. New Zealand thrashed India in both test and one day series. This series result was against the run of play, as India had come to New Zealand on the back of successful series in England and at home versus the West Indies. India are similarly placed going into New Zealand, this time as well. One does hope that NZ provide a tough test to India and one also hopes that India would emerge successful from it.
How do the teams stack up?
India Batting vs New Zealand Bowling
With Dhoni coming back to form, India seems to have solved their middle order batting problem. Dhoni, Rayudu, Kedar and Karthik are fitting in nicely as the middle order following the big guns in the top 3. New Zealand have a beautifully balanced bowling side: high-class seamers in Boult, Locki Fergusson and Southee, excellent spinners in Santner and Sodhi, allrounder in De Grandhomme
The clash of Indian Top 6 with New Zealand bowling will be a beauty. The top order of Rohit, Dhawan and Kohli will take on the seamers. Rohit's weakness against left arm seamers, who can bend the ball back, will be tested. Dhawan looked a bit out of touch in the Australia ODIs. Hopefully, he will have regained his focus by now, for this seam attack will test his technique. Kohli is in the form of his life and one would expect him to tackle the challenge.
Mitchel Santner will test India's top and middle order during the middle overs. Dhoni does not have a good record against left arm orthodox spinners. Santner will be a handful in the middle overs. Rayudu and Kedar will need to play the middle and late overs to move the game forward against spin and seam.
Vijay Shankar is untested and will have to prove his worth as the all-rounder in the series. Will he hold his position when Pandya returns is a question that will need to be answered.
New Zealand Batting vs Indian Bowling
This is another evenly matched duel. Martin Guptil, Colin Munro,Kane Williamson and Ross Taylor will pose the greatest challenge to the Indian seam bowlers. Ross Taylor has been in a rich vein of form and will pose the greatest challenge along with Kane Williamson in the top order. However, Bhuvi has come back to form and will pose some questions to these batsmen. So will Shami, who is looking in ominous form after his successful stint in the red ball game.
The biggest challenge the Kiwi batsmen will face, will be from the Chahal-Kuldeep duo. However, the smallish ground will test the spin twins. We saw in the Adelaide oval, Kuldeep struggled to protect the short square boundaries. So, anything fraction short will go into the crowds.
Concluding Comments
India's World Cup dress rehearsal starts in earnest with this tour of NZ. After the series against OZ, India seems to have found a reasonable combination in both batting and bowling. We will watch these upcoming games closely to find out how prepared everyone is for the mega event in England

OJ Simpson
The OJ trial as Told by Dr. Seuss
I did not kill my lovely wife.
I did not slash her with a knife.
I did not bonk her on the head.
I did not know that she was dead.
I stayed at home that fateful night.
I took a limo, then took a flight.
The bag I had was just for me.
My bag! My bag! Hey, leave it be!
When I came home, I had a gash.
My hand was cut from broken glass.
I cut my hand on broken glass.
A broken glass did cause that gash.
My friend, he took me for a ride.
All through LA, from side to side.
From north to south, we took a ride.
But from the cops we could not hide.
My trial lasted for a year.
A year! A year! Just sitting here!
The DNA, the Hem, the Haw!
The circus-hype the viewers saw!
A year! A year! Just sitting here!
Did you do this awful crime?
Did you do this any time?
I did not do this awful crime.
I could not, would not, anytime.
Did you take this person's life?
Did you do it with a knife?
I did not do it with a knife.
I did not, could not, kill my wife.
I did not do this awful crime.
I could not, would not, any time.
Did you hit her from above?
Did you drop this bloody glove?
I did not hit her from above.
I cannot even wear that glove.
I did not do it with a knife.
I did not, could not, kill my wife.
I did not do this awful crime.
I could not, would not, any time.
The glove, you see, it doesn't fit;
The lawyer says you must acquit.
Acquit because the cops all lied,
Acquit, acquit, the lawyer cried.
The jury came back, verdict in hand,
And silence fell across the land.
Not guilty, not guilty, they did decree;
Not guilty, not guilty, now set him free!
And now I'm free, I can return
To my house, for which I yearn.
And to my family, whom I love.
Now would you please return my glove!!

Expanding the worldview
If you are truly afraid of something, you begin to behave as if that something exists. As you behave as if that something exists, you select, from the data around you, incidents that reinforce your fear or belief. Incoming information that affirms your belief becomes your truth. Information that could challenge your truth doesn't get through. There are many examples today of closed ideologies being challenged by young people around the world. Their voice, fuelled by the speed of communication available through various social media forums, is challenging an old worldview that was based on coercive, autocratic, dictatorial, and deeply divisive and intimidating leaders and their entrenched regimes. However, the challenge (and we will watch this evolve in the next decade) is to not replace them with other dogmatic leaders and other exclusive ways of seeing the world.
The challenge before each of us now is this: Even though we may not personally play on a global scale, the real change in our world starts with an endless number of small actions that we are perfectly capable of contributing towards. It begins with a genuine understanding of what it means to take responsibility and why, to think carefully about the way we behave with people (from those closest to us, to strangers in shops and on freeways).
If we choose to respond to people so that the best is generated, then we can all prosper.
