Exchanging passionate kisses with big-screen star Jennifer Lawrence might sound like a dream come true. But according to Liam Hemsworth, her Hunger Games co-star, it could also be a nightmare… because J.Law's breath wasn't always fresh. "Anytime I had to kiss Jennifer was pretty uncomfortable," Hemsworth said on The Tonight Show.
Lawrence said the problem resulted from her inadvertently consuming tuna or garlic before the lip-locking scenes; fortunately, the two stars were able to share a laugh about it later. But for many people, bad breath is no joke. It can lead to embarrassment and social difficulties — and it occasionally signifies a more serious problem. So what causes bad breath, and what can you do about it?
In 9 out of 10 cases, bad breath originates in the mouth. (In rare situations, it results from a medical issue in another part of the body, such as liver disease or a lung infection.) The foul odors associated with bad breath can be temporarily masked with mouthwash or breath mints — but in order to really control it, we need to find out exactly what's causing the problem, and address its source.
As Lawrence and Hemsworth found out, some foods and beverages can indeed cause a malodorous mouth. Onions, garlic, alcohol and coffee are deservedly blamed for this. Tobacco products are also big contributors to bad breath — which is one more reason to quit. But fasting isn't the answer either: stop eating for long enough and another set of foul-smelling substances will be released. Your best bet is to stay well hydrated and snack on crisp, fresh foods like celery, apples or parsley.
And speaking of hydration (or the lack of it): Mouth dryness and reduced salivary flow during the nighttime hours is what causes "morning breath." Certain health issues and some medications can also cause "dry mouth," or xerostomia. Drinking plenty of water can encourage the production of healthy saliva — but if that's not enough, tell us about it: We may recommend switching medications (if possible), chewing xylitol gum or using a saliva substitute.
Finally, maintaining excellent oral hygiene is a great way to avoid bad breath. The goal of oral hygiene is to control the harmful bacteria that live in your mouth. These microorganisms can cause gum disease, tooth decay, and bad breath — so keeping them in check is good for your overall oral health. Remember to brush twice and floss once daily, stay away from sugary foods and beverages, and visit the dental office regularly for checkups and professional cleanings.
So did J.Law apologize for the malodorous makeout session? Not exactly. "[For] Bradley Cooper, Christian Bale, yeah, I'll brush my teeth," she laughed.
Hemsworth jokingly agreed: "If I was kissing Christian Bale I probably would have brushed my teeth too. With you, it's like, 'Eh. Whatever.'"
If you would like more information about bad breath and oral hygiene, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can learn more by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Bad Breath: More than Just Embarrassing."
After a long struggle with dental disease, you have finally lost the last of your remaining teeth. Like over a quarter of Americans in their 60s and 70s, this unfortunate development can have a profound impact on your health and self-image.
While there are a number of advanced methods for replacing lost teeth, there's one tried and true option that's centuries old — the removable denture. It's the option millions of people have chosen to lessen the impact of missing teeth.
Fashioned properly, removable dentures restore the form and function you once had with your natural teeth. The prosthetic (false) teeth are precisely placed in an acrylic, gum-colored base that closely follows the contours of your gums. Because they're removable, they're fairly easy to clean and maintain.
They do have a disadvantage, though, and it's related to bone health after tooth loss. Like other living tissues, bone has a life cycle: as older cells die, new cells form to take their place. The forces your teeth generate when you chew stimulate new bone growth. But without teeth to provide this stimulation, new bone won't keep up the pace of replacement at a healthy rate. As a result you may gradually lose bone, as much as a quarter of its normal width within a year of losing a tooth.
Dentures don't transmit any stimulation to the gum and bone from chewing. Furthermore, the compressive forces transmitted to the gum and underlying bone tissue contributes to bone loss. As the bone continues to diminish, your denture fit becomes looser to the point you will eventually need them relined with new acrylic material or have a new set made.
There is another alternative when patients loose all of their teeth: an implant-supported removable denture. Dental implants can be used to keep the dentures more secure and can also slow or even halt bone loss where the implants are placed. In this case we strategically place a few implants to serve as supports for a removable denture. The denture has connection points that join up with the implants to hold it more securely in place. As few as two implants are needed in the lower jaw, while the upper jaw does better with three or four implants.
Losing all your teeth can be traumatic, but there are effective ways to overcome it. With new technology, the traditional restoration of removable dentures may be the vehicle for achieving that.
If you would like more information on restoring missing teeth with dentures, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Removable Full Dentures."

Mazzy Star are set to reunite for one show. The band have not performed together for five years but a festival in Australia has brought them back together.
The "Fade Into You" stars will perform at the Vivid Sydney Festival at Sydney Opera House. The festival takes place between May 25 and June 16. Other performers confirmed include St. Vincent, Solange, Brian Enyou and Cat Power.
The band broke up officially in 1997 but continued to release music such as their album, "Seasons Of Your Day", which was released in 2013.

No Double Zipper??
I like the jacket very much. The fit is good and the style is just what I was looking for. But for some reason, Kuhl elected to put just a single, "bottom to top" zipper! The only jacket that should have a one way zipper is a waist length jacket. In this thigh length jacket, the one way zipper is all but useless. I just use the buttons, but really wish they had spent the extra $1 and put in the right zipper.

Great Jacket Great fit, for me
This jacket reminds me of my M65 field jacket I had when I was in the military without all the "hugeness" associated with the M65. The Large I had ordered fit me perfect. Too perfect. I wouldn't be able to layer anything under except maybe a tee shirt, followed by a flannel. I returned it and got the XLarge. This time, the jacket was going to be perfect for layering a fleece or a wool sweater. Plenty roomy without looking baggy. I'm 6' 190 lbs and have somewhat longish arms and the Xlarge is a better fit in the sleeves. The fabric is soft to the touch and the color is spot on. This jacket will see much use especially when going from fly fishing to nights out to dinner and a movie. Thumbs up! Made in China was a little bit of a let down.

Stylish & Versatile
I bought this specifically for a trip to France to watch the 24 Hours of Le Mans. I already owned the similar waxed cotton Fjallraven Greenland No.1 jacket, but decided to buy this as well because of the extra pockets and more urban look for the streets of Paris. Having this jacket with all it's pockets while navigating and running through various airports and train stations in Europe with my backpack made the entire difficult experience less stressful. I usually wear large or extra large in jackets and an XL Kollusion fit me nicely with the ability to layer a hoodie underneath while sitting in the cold damp grandstands at 3am in Le Mans. For further reference, I wear a 43R jacket. The jacket breathed well while blocking the wind so that I was comfortable sitting in early morning dew, and never overheated while standing in a crowded Paris bus or wearing it during my international flights. I'm very happy with this purchase.

Recently on Twitter, I came across a challenge. Users were asked 'Describe Yourself In 3 Fictional Characters' by posting a photo of each character. It was so interesting and entertaining to see people (some who I hadn't really gotten to know that well yet) describe who they are with such well-known characters and in some way, I feel like I know them all a little bit more because of it.
So, I thought I would take the challenge and expand on it a little bit so that you can also get to know my personality a bit more. Here are 3 fictional characters which I feel best describe who I am!
1. Pam Beesly – The Office
Let's get the obvious out of the way: Pam worked as a receptionist for Dunder Mifflin and I work as a receptionist in my current job as well as every job I have had since I was 18.
We are both pretty easy-going women who don't seem to speak up enough when things might be bothering us. I can't say I have had any cute co-workers pine after me while I was engaged to be married to someone else, but maybe that is a good thing.
I have always identified with Pam's loyalty towards her workmates, especially those who treat her with respect and kindness.
2. Riley Matthews – Girl Meets World
I see so much of my younger self in Riley. Her devotion to her dearest friends (Maya in particular) is so reminiscent myself and my very best friend as a child. Her happiness and enthusiasm for life and everything coming her way was very similar to 13 year old me.
Something I also related to with Riley was her overly-cheerful disposition. In fact, we were both made fun of for being so positive in high school. Kids can honestly be so nasty sometimes, can't they?
3. Anne Shirley – Anne of Green Gables
I have a tendancy to romanticize and fantastise about the most boring topics, just like Anne always seemed to. Visiting a new town sometimes feels like poetry to me, with new exciting and sometimes dramatic stories around every undiscovered corner to be told.
Anne's love of writing is very much a part of who I am and I am constantly thinking up scenarios in my head involving either people I know, or brand new characters.
Which fictional characters would you use to describe yourself?

I started drawing as early as the first grade. In school I would doodle while the teacher was talking, I joke that I was an art major during math class. Took art classes in HS and Majored (for real) in art in college .I worked for an art museum in Honolulu for 20 years and took advantage of art classes that they offered. I studied painting, figure drawing and portrait. My art reflects a love of nature, creation and expression of peace and beauty , something I feel that is needed in our troubled world.

A mild and easy red lentil dal recipe that the whole family can enjoy. Suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
What is dal?
Dal is both the name for lentils and the name for a simple curry made from them. Dal is a spiced curry that is made from lentils. Many dal recipes have additions such as sweet potatoes or spinach but a simple dal recipe might just be lentils, onions, garlic, ginger and spices. Dal is the staple food of millions of people on the Indian subcontinent.
Any kind of lentils can be used to make dal and the results can be wonderfully different. Dal makhani for example, made with black lentils, is a rich and creamy dish from the Punjab. For a more everyday dal I like to use red lentils as they don't require any soaking and cook quickly.
Dahl, dhal, daal or dal?
It doesn't really matter how you spell dal. The lentil based dish comes from the Indian subcontinent which is home to many languages all of which have a different script.
As long as you've got a lentil based curry made with spices you have a dal.
Incidentally I opted with dal because that's what The Guardian do in their style guide.
Can you give dal to a baby?
Yes you absolutely can give dal to a baby. In fact it's one of my favourite lentil recipes for babies.
The only things you need to watch out for when serving dal to your baby or toddler are the chilli and the salt. If you leave these two ingredients out then dal is perfect baby food. Exposing babies to lots of different tastes and textures is really important and spices such as turmeric and cumin add a delicious flavour to this red lentil dal that babies will love.
You can spice the dal up for yourself by making a simple chilli temper.
How to serve dal to babies
You can serve this baby dal recipe on a loaded spoon or with strips of bread or rice cakes for dipping if you're doing baby led weaning. Alternatively you can spoon feed it and it can be puréed for a really young baby if you prefer.
When R was a baby he had curry quite regularly. One of his favourite first dishes was a puréed lentil and cheese dish from the Annabel Karmel book and for some reason he would only eat vegetables if they were in curry. Then of course he turned two and the fear of sauce began.
I had all but forgotten about the possibility of giving Indian food to my children when one day I was eating leftover dal and rice for lunch while baby R ate something else. When she saw what I was eating she wouldn't rest until I gave her some. She won't eat rice in any other context but for some reason the dahl looked irresistible to her. She loved it.
I now serve dal and other curries to the children quite regularly and am always surprised how much of it gets eaten. It's also something that we all like so we can all sit down to eat together – which I think the children really enjoy.

How to make this easy red lentil dal
This dal is delicious when served with homemade vegan flatbreads (recipe on my vegan food blog, Cook Veggielicious).
Easy red lentil dal
A mild and easy red lentil dal recipe that the whole family can enjoy. Suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
- 1 cup red lentils (200g)
- 2 teaspoons of turmeric
- 1 tbsp sunflower or vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 onion peeled and finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic peeled and finely chopped
- 1 inch piece ginger peeled and finely chopped
- Dried red chillis chopped to taste, or leave them out altogether if serving to small children or babies
- 1 400g tin chopped tomatoes or 4-5 fresh tomatoes chopped
- 1 tbsp garam masala
- 1 tbsp mild curry powder
- salt and pepper to taste, optional
Place the lentils in a saucepan and cover with water. Add 1 teaspoon of turmeric. Bring to the boil, then turn the heat down and simmer until cooked. Add more water as necessary and stir regularly to avoid sticking. The red lentils usually take about 15-20 minutes but different types will take longer so adjust accordingly.
Heat some oil in a large frying pan. Add the cumin seeds and fry for a minute or so until starting to turn brown.
Add the onion, stir and cook gently for around 10 minutes until soft. Add the ginger, garlic and chilli then add the turmeric and stir well. Add the tomatoes. Cook for a further five minutes before adding the garam masala and curry powder.
Add the lentils when cooked through and stir well. Season with salt and pepper to taste. The longer you leave this the better so make in advance or even the day before if you have time.
Serve with rice and/or bread. Enjoy!

By Karl Hofmann, CEO, PSI
For the past 45 years, PSI has worked to improve the health of people throughout the world, mainly by making high-quality, affordable products and services available to people where and when they need them.
Because of our deep, global roots, we have a good sense of how the health products and service markets work and where a market may fail. And we believe we know our consumers. But are we serving them as well as we could?
To answer that, we've taken a step back to evaluate our business model, and to think creatively about how we can have even greater and longer-lasting impact.
Over the next decade PSI will become an organization that increasingly diagnoses and addresses market failures, while still continuing to provide much-needed health products and services. Our focus must be on how entire markets and systems meet peoples' needs, not only on how we are acting in those markets.
Donors and governments are asking pointed questions: After decades of investment, is there no more sustainable approach? One that requires less subsidy, but that doesn't walk away from the progress we've made? This trend is particularly evident in parts of Asia, and Central America and the Caribbean, and in some parts of Africa too where bilateral donors are moving countries out of assistance programs. The United Kingdom's Department for International Development, Sweden's SIDA, USAID, The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, UNITAID and others are shifting assistance toward market shaping strategies, even as they pare down investments.
Some donors are looking at an exit strategy. PSI is formulating an evolution strategy.
One of the more promising approaches is to turn our nonprofit programs into social enterprises, which I'll define here as mission-driven, subsidy-free business activities that generate a surplus. This won't work everywhere, but in countries where purchasing power is rising and where we are seeing a reduction in donor subsidies, transforming the NGO model to a social enterprise is a responsible way to continue to deliver health impact and meet the health needs of our consumers.
PSI running a social enterprise already in Southern Africa with a regional commercial condom sales entity called Company 158. We have been operating as a social enterprise in Paraguay for years. And we recently launched a social enterprise in India to take over all commercial aspects of our work there. With more intentional focus on market failures and total market dynamics, and with the sharper discipline that comes from social enterprise, and operating without a donor safety net, new perspectives for meeting health needs appear.
The drive toward universal health coverage, and opportunities to leapfrog the constraints of struggling primary health care systems through new diagnostic technologies and self-administered therapies and treatments also offer transformational possibilities for us. HIV self-testing is one example.
Right now we have more questions than answers about these shifts. But we trust that when we keep the people we serve at the center of our work, and we focus on removing barriers to access for them, we're on the right track. A consumer-centered, empowerment-driven, sustainably focused future looks big, exciting and different for PSI.

Afrika Korps Uniform Reference :
Hauptmann in the DAK (Afrika Korps) wearing M40 field cap & scarf
Many Afrika Korps soldiers wore the M40 field cap whenever possible, as an alternative to the heavy steel helmet which became a "cooking pot" in the desert heat. Locally-purchased scarves were also more practical for everyday wear than the regulation shirt and tie.
Soldiers who participated in the joint Italian & German effort were entitled to wear the Italo-German Campaign award either as a ribbon or, as seen here, a full-sized medal. Above his 3 service ribbons this officer wears the Close Combat Clasp in gold, and below them the Iron Cross First Class and the Infantry Assault badge in bronze as well as the Iron Cross 2nd class ribbon.
Hauptmann in the DAK (Afrika Korps)
This officer is wearing a tropical cotton twill 5-button tunic, with specially reinforced additional seams for tough desert duty.
His "stahlhelm" (steel helmet) is the M40 design, virtually identical to the M35 except that its ventilation ports are integral to the shell instead of attached.
He bears an MG42 light machine gun, known to many Allied solders as the "burp" gun because of the characteristic sound of its 1,200 to 1,500 round-per-minute bursts. (The MG42 was the fore-runner to the now famous American GPMG M60 machine gun of the Vietnam war).
The Afrika Korps wore two distinctive cuff titles.
It is said that the second one, seen here, was designed by Hitler himself with the simple legend "AFRIKA" flanked by twin palm trees on brown. As well they wore 2 different decals on their helmets. (See below for his decorations & awards).
The desert campaigns of the Second World War have captured the popular imagination like few others in modern history. This is due in large part to the almost-mythic fame of its commander, the "Desert Fox", Irwin Rommel. But few understand the reasons for his success. The Afrika Corps is a textbook example of why the German Army was able to achieve the success it did, despite its handicaps.
Often outnumbered, usually undersupplied, the Deutsches Afrikakorps succeeded because of the technical superiority of its weaponry, the skill of its leadership, and the élan of its men. And its achievements are truly remarkable: with only three German divisions (the 5th Light later christened the 15th the 20th, and 90th Light Divisions), plus six Italian divisions of varying degrees of quality, the Afrika Corps was able to push back a superior Commonwealth force from Tripoli to within a few hundred miles of the Suez Canal, almost ejecting the British from North Africa and its rich oil reserves in the process .
And, despite its defeat, the Afrika Corps tied down the equivalent of more than twenty Commonwealth divisions for a period of two years nearly half of Britain's operational strength.
Service Dress
The tropical uniform worn by the Afrika Corps varied widely in colour, depending on length of use, different manufacturers' batches, etc.; and the latitude tolerated in the desert armies of other nations was also observed in the German forces. Colours described below are regulation shades.
Upon arrival in North Africa, members of the Afrika Corps seem to have been dressed in the following: an olive green M1940 Tropical tunic; flared olive green breeches that laced at the calf and resembled British jodhpurs; high-laced tropical boots with brown leather feet and reinforcement strips, and olive canvas insteps and legs; and cork helmet.
(The colour resembled British "khaki" or American "olive drab".
Early versions ranged in colour from greenish-brown to dark brown.
Later versions were more standardized.) Unlike forces on the continent during this period, both officers and other ranks wore virtually identical uniforms.
Armoured Units
In North Africa, 1941-43, Panzer troops wore the same basic uniforms as all other German Army personnel.
The only part of the black uniform sometimes retained in the desert was the side cap, seen in one or two photos of crews otherwise dressed in tropical uniform.
Members of the Panzer units wore the wore the olive shoulder straps with pink piping. Officers wore the pink-backed silver shoulder straps from their European uniforms, and other ranks . All arms, Panzer included, wore the conventional Litzen of the German Army on the collar, in blue-grey on tan brown.
Officers wore their European service dress collar Litzen silver, with pink "lights", on a dark green backing.
All ranks identified their arm of service by pinning the white metal death's-head from their black European collar patches directly to the cloth of the lower jacket lapel.
These death's-heads, and the pink piping on their shoulder straps., were all that distinguished Panzer troopers' tunics from other branches. The chevron of pink was Waffenfarbe sometimes, but not invariably, worn on the front of the tropical field cap and sidecap. The insignia on these caps were conventional eagles and cockades but the former was in blue-grey. Officers had silver woven cap eagles on brown backing, silver crown piping, and the embroidered cockade.
Gallantry and wound decorations were worn on the tropical jacket in the usual way. In fact, the jacket itself was very frequently discarded; in the desert the Panzer crewman's normal dress, except in the cold of night or deep winter, was a field cap, shorts and the short canvas-and-leather boot. Oliver green shirts were worn, sometimes with uniform shoulder straps attached but without other insignia. The jacket sometimes displayed the AFRIKA and AFRIKAKORPS titles. The khaki-brown greatcoat was also worn by Panzer crews.
For all branches, the shade of "olive green" displayed by all items of headgear and uniform varied very widely, from a true green, through every shade of khaki, to a bleached sand yellow: Field caps were often deliberately bleached. As well, all branches made use of captured British tropical clothing: it is not uncommon to see Afrika Corps clothing mixed with British shirts, shorts, socks or boots.

Whoever wrote "the 5th later christened the 15 panzer division, the 20th and the 90th light. Should be the 5th later christend the 21th , the 15th and the 90th light. Dont know if Dak had superior weapons , tanks in the earlier part were evenly matched, Later the British got Grant tanks (75mm) and even later the Shermans, though antitank DAK had the advanage .

Below is a calendar of local bat events (these are usually NOT BrumBats events, but are ones that we are attending. Please ensure that you BOOK onto these with the organiser rather than just attending. Contact info is provided.
Planning an Event
If you are planning a bat walk or thinking about requesting one using the form below, there are several things you should consider:
- Season – bats begin to hibernate from October and don't usually emerge again until April. In April and September, bat activity is usually very low, so you are best keeping bat walks to May – August. Talks can be delivered at any time, but our volunteers are usually very busy during spring and summer, so plan talks for October – March.
- Sunset – bats usually begin to come out from about 15 minutes after sunset, so sunset is a good time to start a bat walk. Please remember that in the middle of summer, sunset is VERY LATE.
- School holidays – Many people request bat walks during school holidays, which run from mid-July to September, which is our busiest survey season, so we have very limited availability then. It is also worth keeping in mind that in mid-late July, sunset is not until 9.30pm, so a bat walk would not finish until 11pm. Easter holidays are usually in early April, when there is very little bat activity.
- Day of the week – All our volunteers work full time, so it is unlikely that we can deliver a walk, talk or stall on a 'school night'.
- Numbers – a good maximum number of people at a bat walk is 30 – this would allow one bat detector between 3 people. Any more than that and people will struggle to hear the walk leaders and the bats.
- Being Prepared – even in the summer, bat walks can be very dhilly, and it's usually on rough ground in the dark, so we suggest that you advise all of your attendees to wear warm clothing and stout footwear, and to wear or bring red LED head torches (or normal torches) as red lights deter bats far less than white lights do.
Requesting an Event
If you wish the bat group to deliver a stall, talk or walk, we will require at least 60 days notice. Please note that in most circumstances we do NOT undertake surveys in relation to developments or planning applications. Please fill out the request form below. Please note that for most events we require a donation of £30, which enables us to maintain our bat detectors and other equipment.

The mini soccer heads are back with an all new version of sports heads footballing. Did you miss them? We sure did and are glad the Mousebreaker Team haven't been putting their feet up for too long after the other three versions.
The same premiership team roster is in use for Super Sports Heads with you being able to pick from the latest teams in the premiership of course including Arsenal, Tottenham, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City and Manchester United.
So let's now take a look at the players representing all the English PR teams:
Full Range of Players & Teams to Pick From
- R Van Daisy - Manchester United
- P Cease - Newcastle United
- R Van Wolfinsky - Norwich City
- R Lamburt - Southampton
- P Couch - Stoke City
- S Fetcher - Sunderland
- Macho - Swansea City
- J Defoo - Tottenham
- S Loong - West Brom
- A Carole - West Ham United
- L Pooldoki - Arsenal
- C Benten - Aston Villa
- C Bellamee - Cardiff
- F Torrid - Chelsea
- G Mulley - Crystal Palace
- N Jellyfish - Everton
- D Barbados - Fulham
- S Auckley - Hull City
- L Suarez - Liverpool
- D Silver - Man City
The Game Play
As usual the game is very easy to play in terms of the aim. You have to head and kick the ball into the oppositions goal on a 2d pitch. This time however the difficulty has been upped somewhat and it's fairly easy to score an own goal if you get too keen to jump in and try win the ball.
Lighting Speed Headers & Kicks
The ball moves at a lightning speed compared to other editions, you have to be careful not to kick or head it for a rebound at your own goal. Pretty much anywhere except accurately at the opposition goal can end up leading to an own goal or the opposition scoring in one way or another so it's as much about timing and positional sense this time round.
Above: The Computer Scores an Own Goal!
We quite like the neat little visual updates to the pitch, it now feels a little more alive and like a soccer stadium such as the flags blowing in the wind. The crowd is also easily heard giving you a feeling that someone is actually watching you this time and it's not just an empty 8 bit screen with two random ugly looking heads playing soccer.
Some beginner tips:
Tip 1
Here I'm asking to be lobbed!
Stand back near your goal and let the opposition make the first move. Defending the goal will mean your not as easily open to own goals from the football rebounding off the back of your head! If you notice Mousebreaker have programmed the computer player to do this alot.
It will also give you more chance to lob your opponent whether that be through a header or a kick of the ball.
Tip 2
Watch the obstacles that appear randomly above in each match. These obstacles will vary and will obstruct your ability to head and kick clearly into the sky. They may also end up causing you an own goal. If your good enough you can also use them to your advantage. But I recommend you try to stay clear of them and head and kick lower towards your opponents goal.
Tip 3
If the clock is ticking down, your winning and in possession, keep the ball next to you, don't kick it or try to head it for another goal, your opponent will probably be dumb enough to stay in his goal even though he's loosing. I've used this tactic many a time with no challenge from the computer.
Tip 4
Certain power ups throughout each match are more useful than others. For example the 'Big Goal' and 'Big Head' power ups are nice haves. Just make sure you don't come off your line just for the sake of trying to kick the ball at a power up - you can end up being lobbed and then you loose the power up anyway. Most of the time ignoring the power up and keeping your eye on the goal is a far better strategy.
Some Ideas we have for improvements for Super Sports Heads Football 2...
We'd like to see Mousebreaker expanding the game more considering this is an official sequel and not just an updated version of an existing game. That's not to say, we don't want the fundamental game play to be the same but a little more variety in terms of the environment would be nice to give it more visual appeal. We don't feel they have done enough in this respect.
Here's a list of what we would like to see:
- A variety of premiership stadiums to choose from, not just the same non entity one you play in. Your soccer head should travel around so you get the sense you are actually a premiership team and not playing sunday league on the same pitch over and over again.
- More players to pick from in each team - each with different strengths and weaknesses. Starting off simple this could be that some players have better kicking ability and others better heading ability.
- Upload and super impose your own face on the player!
- Compete against other players online - the multiplayer option is well over due for this game and would take it to another level entirely.
- Compete for prizes in leagues and tournaments: eleborating on the multiplayer option above allowing players to compete in leagues and tournaments for real prizes such as premiership tickets to go watch the team of their choice would be a great addition.
- 4 player mode: the ability for 2 vs 2 like a tag team match. On either side one player gets to be the goalie and the other one the out field player. Adding more real players on the screen would really improve the dynamics of the game and the spontaniety.
What improvements would you like Mousebreaker to make to the Sports Heads Football series? Why not leave your comments to the left and discuss it with us.

As this tip is being posted in January, it's easy to talk about resolutions; however, resolutions may be made at any time and in order to follow-through, one must be frequently reminded that they have resolved to do something. The same is true for membership in any club or association.
Because we know that we want to add members to our Optimist Club, we should talk about what it does and how good it makes us feel so that others will become interested in joining the cause. Our positive conversations improve membership recruitment and instill the pride that we need to retain those members we already have.
Don't forget to celebrate #OptimistDay, every year, the first Thursday in February. Oh, to heck with that! Celebrate by being proud to be an Optimist every day.
We love stories about your Optimist Club. Please tell us one and we'll add it to the website.
Click here, email, or post to Facebook. Thank you!

Let's take a closer look!
Like I said, the Cirque Colors The Meta Collection consists of 5 polishes, and it has been released already. All shades are limited edition so if you see something you like, don't hold out too long or you might miss out. The formula was nice on all of them, though a bit thin and besides Some Great Reward, all needed 3 coats for proper opacity.
Cirque Colors Cabaret Voltaire is a shimmery chameleon that shifts from purple to red to orange. Kicking off with my favorite :-D I always love these warm shadeshifters so much, perfect for Autumn as well!
Cirque Colors Ghost In The Machine is shimmery chameleon that shifts from green to blue to purple. This one reminds me of bruises, lol! It does shift nicely and I like those little flecks you see in the macro.
Cirque Colors Some Great Reward is a shimmery chameleon that shifts from gold to green. This one is the least multichrome but the most intense in color, 2 coats were more than sufficient for an opaque finish.
Cirque Colors Techno Manifesto is a shimmery chameleon that shifts from red to gold to green. A very classic multichrome color, it reminds me of Orly Space Cadet though they aren't that similar at all.
Cirque Colors Version Infinity is a shimmery chameleon that shifts from blue to purple to red. I love the purple tone in this one! It's a bit warmer in color than Ghost In The Machine.
Overall conclusion
While multichromes aren't as unique anymore as they were a few years ago, they are still very eyecatching and fun to play with in the right light. The colorshift is also very amusing to people unknown to the concept of multichromes: "I thought your polish was purple? Wait, is it blue? Nah, it's green! What's happening!". So amusing ^^.
The formula on these was nice, even if I needed 3 coats for opacity they applied smooth and even, and it didn't build up to a thick layer of polish. My favorites are Cabaret Voltaire and Some Great Reward.
What do you think of this set? Are you still excited by multichromes? And which shade do you like best? Tell me in the comments!
The Cirque Colors The Meta Collection has been released already and is available at www.cirquecolors.com. If you wish to purchase from a local stockist, make sure to check out the full list to see if there is a local e-tailer or retailer available. These polishes retail for $15.

text: I need to loop a cloth fx animation. So I came across a thread by Kentdog and Celshader that says, use a morph target to close the loop on the cloth fx animation. I've tried it, but I keep getting a message that the morph targets "point count must be the same as the original model". Strange, since the morph target is the same model. In modeler, the point count is the same, but in layout, the morph targets just won't load. I called newtek and asked them, but they don't have any answers. BTW, I'm in vers. 9, not 9.6, so I thought this might be a bug that is peculiar to vers 9. Anyone had this experience? and if so, how did you resolve it? thanks

Michael Carruth throws his hat in the ring for Malin2Mizen Cycle4CF 2019
Boxing legend Michael Carruth will be in Donegal next May for the Malin2Mizen Cycle4CF
With Ireland having the highest rates of cystic fibrosis in the world and some of the most severe types of the disease—over 1,300 people are living with cystic fibrosis here currently—Cystic Fibrosis Ireland (CFI) has launched their Malin2Mizen Cycle4CF 2019 which takes place on Thursday May 9th - Sunday May 12th (www.cfireland.ie). The aim is to raise awareness and funds to help provide support and services for people with cystic fibrosis nationally. These include support grants for people with cystic fibrosis for exercise, transplant assessment, fertility treatment and counselling, as well as research and new healthcare facilities including a much required dedicated CF Unit at Beaumont Hospital.
Cystic Fibrosis is the most common life-threatening inherited disease in the country. CF causes the body to produce an unusually thick, sticky mucus which clogs the lungs and obstructs the pancreas, with the majority of deaths being caused by respiratory failure. There are certain treatments which can provide some relief to patients of CF, such as the drug Orkambi, which was first made available to Irish patients in 2017, when the Minister of Health Simmon Harris struck a deal with Vertex Pharmaceutical to introduce state-funded access to the "miracle drug". This came in the wake of numerous campaigns from the likes of Longford woman Jillian McNulty, who spent over 3 years campaigning for the introduction of Orkambi.
The 2018 Malin2Mizen Cycle4CF was held in memory of Lisa Dolan from Athlone who sadly passed away in May 2017. Lisa had cystic fibrosis and received a double lung transplant in 2016. It was a fitting tribute to Lisa that the 2018 cycle was held in her memory, as she encouraged people to sign up and take part in the Malin2Mizen Cycle4CF 2017. Lisa's parents Seán and Rosie Dolan completed the 600+ km cycle from Malin to Mizen in May of this year. They got huge support in the Athlone area for their fundraising with the Malin2Mizen Cycle4CF 2018 raised an amazing €141,638.61.
Michael Carruth had thrown his weight behind the Malin2Mizen Cycle4CF 2019. Having come on board as an ambassador for the 2018 cycle, Michael has gone one step further for next year and signed up for the cycle in May. The four day cycle starts in Malin Head, County Donegal and finishes in Mizen Head, County Cork.
· Thursday 9th May: Malin Head to Bundoran (147km)
· Friday 10th May: Bundoran to Oranmore (172km)
· Saturday 11th May: Oranmore to Mallow (152km)
· Sunday 12th May: Mallow to Mizen Head (140km)
Speaking about the Malin2Mizen Cycle4CF, Michael called for people to register now for the cycle to help support people with Cystic Fibrosis in Ireland:
"The Malin2Mizen Cycle4CF 2019 takes places from Thursday, May 9th to Sunday, May 12th and I am putting my hat in the ring for this great event. I would like to say a huge thank you to Eurocycles on Longmile Road for providing me with a bike, all the gear and a training plan, so that I now cannot throw in the towel on Malin2Mizen Cycle4CF 2019. Seriously I am delighted to be taking part in this great event, raising awareness of cystic fibrosis and also raising much needed funds. In the 2018 cycle, 40 cyclists delivered a knock-out punch raising over €140,000 which helped fund grant payments for people with cystic fibrosis to help them with exercise, which is important for all of us, but can be a matter of life or death if you have cystic fibrosis. The funds also helped support the transplant team in the Mater, who do such an incredible job, performing life-saving double lung transplants for people with cystic fibrosis every year. I would encourage anyone who is interested in joining me for what promises to be a fantastic 4 days of cycling and a mighty bit of crack to register now on at www.cfireland.ie. Places are limited so sign up now! "
To take part in the Malin2Mizen Cycle4CF, register now at www.cfireland.ie. The fundraising target for participation in the cycle is €2,000 which covers your food and accommodation over the 4 day cycle. Registration closes on January 25th.
To support the Malin2Mizen Cycle4CF and help people with Cystic Fibrosis in Ireland you can donate online at www.cfireland.ieor text "HELPCF" to 50300 to donate €2 [100 per cent of a donation goes to Cystic Fibrosis Ireland across most network operators. Some operators apply VAT which means that a minimum of €1.63 will go to Cystic Fibrosis Ireland. Service Provider: LIKECHARITY. Helpline: 0766805278.]

text: 05 October 2018 Major new visitor attraction for Dorset moves closer A major new visitor destination on Portland, which is being supported by Dorset Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP), has moved a step forward in its development in partnership with the renowned Eden Project. Eden Portland brings together the visions of two world-class attraction projects that had been planned for Portland for some time – MEMO and Jurassica. In partnership with Eden Project International Limited it aims to transform and regenerate exhausted quarry and mine workings to create a world-class visitor destination for Portland. The attraction will be located in spectacular tunnels excavated by Albion Stone in Jordan's Mine, which is nearing the end of its industrial life. There will be nearly a linear kilometre of underground 'gallery' space. Inside this labyrinth of tunnels, visitors will explore the dramatic history of life on earth Eden Portland aims to create 130 jobs and attract 320,000 visitors a year. Dorset LEP is pleased to have secured £1.3m towards the scheme via the Government's Local Growth Fund. Jim Stewart, Chair Dorset LEP said: "I am excited to see progress being made to this major new visitor attraction at Portland, which Dorset LEP has been pleased to support. "The project will provide much needed employment and apprenticeship opportunities in around the area and having the association of the hugely successful Eden project brand will make it more attractive to tourists helping to increase visitor spend in Dorset." The project has also received financial support from Dorset County Council, Weymouth and Portland Borough Council, philanthropist Sue Lyons, and The Valentine Trust. Sebastian Brooke, Project Director, MEMO said: "We will tell the biggest story of all: the evolving story of life. It's a story four billion years in the making and so far as anyone knows has happened nowhere else in the universe. According to the world's biologists, a really significant chapter is unfolding right now with the loss of biodiversity worldwide, and with its mines, its cliffs and its mysteries, Portland is an amazingly vivid setting for the telling of it" Minister for Local Growth, Jake Berry, said: "This government is committed to boosting economic growth across the whole of the UK and building a Britain fit for the future. "I'm delighted that Government is investing in such an exciting and inspiring project. Plans for this major tourism attraction, with all the associated benefits that Eden Project International brings, offer opportunities not just for Portland, but Dorset's wider economy too." A design team has now been appointed, including international award winning virtual reality and visual effects artists. Work is on schedule for the submission of a planning application later in the year. Drop-in events are being held on Portland ahead of a planning application being submitted later this autumn. About the Local Growth Fund Local Enterprise Partnerships are playing a vital role in driving forward economic growth across the country, helping to build a country that works for everyone. That's why by 2021 Government will have invested over £12bn through the Local Growth Fund, allowing LEPs to use their local knowledge to get all areas of the country firing on all cylinders. A total of £98.5 million for Dorset has already been successfully bid for by the LEP in Dorset Growth Deals, which aim to bring together local, national and private sector funding to unlock and unblock key housing and employment sites, create more highly skilled jobs, and support economic growth.

Book Review: The Merchant of Death
Title: Pendragon: The Merchant of Death
Author: D.J. MacHale
Published: 2002 Pages: 374
Genre: Young Adult Literature
Rating: 3/5
Buy | Borrow | Accept | Avoid
When Bobby Pendragon grabbed his bag to head off for the county semifinal basketball game, he was a normal boy. Then two things happened: a kiss and a trip to another world, Denduron. He quickly finds out that the universe is not what he has known. There are multiple territories coexisting in separate space-time, connected by mysterious portals called flumes. And Bobby is one of the select few capable of traveling between these worlds. All Bobby really wants is to go home. But first, he has to save the world.
When I first picked up the book, almost a year ago, I only got as far as the second page. Today though I finished the book in an afternoon. And enjoyed it. Perhaps I was just in the right mood for an easy read, but I think it was more than that. The story is relatively familiar, but the details kept my interest, and I'm already planning on reading the rest of the books in the series. I might even start the second book tonight.

Motherhood is messy. In all the ways, motherhood is messy. It makes a mess of our emotions, our expectations and our home. These tiny humans enter our lives and hearts and they challenge us every day to grow and give and bend. And although we're totally exhausted, we wouldn't have it any other way. Except maybe it would be nice to not have so much laundry. Seriously, where does it all come from?!
And we are busy. Modern moms are so busy. Many of us work outside the home, we often don't have help in the form of nearby relatives and our communities are so spread out that we are constantly driving long distances to activities. At the end of the day, something's gotta give and my vote's on the housework. After all, life's too short to fold fitted sheets.

Adobe Summit EMEA 2019: London Brings Sunshine, Music, and CX
Jack Maden | May 17, 2019
Jack Maden | May 17, 2019
Adobe Summit EMEA 2019 is over.
And breathe...
This year's attendees were blessed by a couple of gorgeous sunshine-filled days, and Adobe as always put on a brilliant, content-packed show.
From the ever-impressive welcoming and Jess Glynne's rockstar performance on day 1, to the informative breakout sessions and hilarious sneaks with Jack Whitehall on day 2 - the action was non-stop.
Nowhere more so than at the Community Pavilion, where the Decibel team set up camp to discuss all things digital experience... as well as play host to the most drama-filled 'guess the number of LEGO bricks' competition yet recorded (and we've recorded a few).
Huge range of guesses for our LEGO competition today! Everything from 500 to 35,000 🤯 Have you got yours in yet? #AdobeSummit pic.twitter.com/72KLohrk3e— Decibel (@Decibelinsight) 15 May 2019
If you took part in our competition, keep an eye on your inbox over the next week, as we'll be announcing the eagle-eyed winner of our iPad Pro.
The breakout sessions
Analysis of LEGO bricks aside, there was some more serious analysis occurring in a number of the breakout sessions. We are biased, of course, but one session particularly worthy of your attention was hosted by TUI's Hirra Sulanki, Station10's David Ellis, and Decibel's Jim Misuraca.
Hirra explained how TUI was looking to correlate customer experience with commercial numbers like revenue and customer lifetime value. By tying the two together, Hirra and her team would secure a strong business case internally to invest in customer experience initiatives.
To aid her on her mission, Hirra enlisted the analytical expertise of Station10, as well as next-generation technology from Decibel. Working collaboratively, the team produced a customer experience dataset that enabled them to predict an increase of $30m in annual revenue. You can catch a video summarizing the fantastic work they did here.
A new way to measure experience online
At the heart of Hirra's successful study lies Decibel's Digital Experience Score (DXS). DXS provides an objective measure of digital experiences across websites & apps, and can be used to immediately identify bottlenecks in user journeys.
Our CEO Ben Harris sat down with Adobe VP Amit Ahuja to discuss DXS: how it complements the 'what' of the Adobe Experience Cloud with the 'why' of actual user behavior and experience.
If after Summit you're feeling giddy about customer experience again, then now's a great time to evaluate how you measure it. We'd love to chat to you to see where you're at on your digital maturity journey, and advise on how you can get to the next stage.

The epic graphic novel by Frank Miller (Sin City) assaults the screen with the blood, thunder and awe of it's ferocious visual style faithfully recreated in an intense blend of live-action and CGI animation. Retelling the ancient Battle of Thermopylae, it depicts the titanic clash in which King Leonidas (Gerard Butler) and 300 Spartans fought to the death against Xerxes (Rodrigo Santoro) and his massive Persian army. Experience history at swordpoint. And moviemaking with a cutting edge.

This photo was taken on February 4, 1937 by widely-admired photographer Berenice Abbott. She spent much of the 1930s documenting the rapidly-changing face of New York City. Ordinarily a photo of a seemingly generic storefront wouldn't have caught my eye. But I absolutely love the fact that the "Stuyvesant Curiosity Shop" at 48 Third Avenue has its selection of "shotguns and rifles" on proud display outside on the sidewalk.
And my other favorite little days-gone-by detail? "Sig Klein Fat Men's Shop" – so much for political correctness. Some light digging reveals Klein's to be somewhat of a legend among plus-sized clothing stores, with its portly mascot in a form-fitting bodysuit and the slogan "If everyone was fat, there would be no war." Klein's opened in the 1880s when this area of the East Village was filled with German men who, through their love of beer, were growing larger and larger. It managed to stay in business at least until the late 1960s, and today it is little more than a memory. A comical memory at that.
Further details on the history of Klein's Fat Men's Shop can be found at the wonderful blog Jeremiah's Vanishing New York. (He also has a great piece discussing the Stuyvesant Curiosity Shop.)
Photo credit goes to Berenice Abbott (1898-1991) whose photo collection is available in the NY Public Library's Digital Archive. Photo ID 482686.

18 weeks pregnant- On holiday and loving it!
I'm in North Cyprus! The first thing I did was jump into the sea and it felt so great to feel weightless. Plus the sea salt did wonders to my skin. On top of that, I felt fantastic, my skin had started to glow, my hair felt soft and thick, and, most importantly, my appetite was back with a vengeance.
Previously, the smell of meat would make my stomach churn but now the smell made me crave a Turkish kebab. My family in Cyprus hadn't seen me for about five years so everyone greeted me with hugs and kisses and patted my belly in appreciation that I was adding a member to our family. Hubby fitted in really well too and soon the family kebabs, drinking and evening dips in the sea felt like second nature to him. I still didn't feel little Boxer yet but I could feel that he was growing inside me. I felt so protective of my bump and whenever I would walk over rough terrain or climb steps, I'd place my hand over the bump to protect my little Boxer. The heat was scorching at 40 degrees but the maxi dresses were perfect as they allowed air to get to my bump so little Boxer wouldn't overheat. If I had to pass on any advice to my pregnant gals right now I would say GO ON HOLIDAY NOW! The second trimester seems to still allow you to have fun without feeling too heavy and, well, pregnant. Oh and buy a swimming noodle. They are perfect to keep you bobbing around on the surface of the pool and the sea and they are also great fun to play around with. If it lasts, I may keep the noodle for when my Boxer grows up and plays in the water.
A fun fact – The baby is about 12cm now – The size of an artichoke!
The Science Part
Your baby at 18 weeks
- Your baby has now up to 14,000,000,000 nerve cells!
- Their heart is big enough to now be heard through a stethoscope
- Your baby's fingerprints are growing
- Your baby is now yawning, hiccuping, sucking and swallowing!
Your pregnancy signs and symptoms
- Your second ultrasound scan should be coming up pretty soon. This scan will check to see if your baby is healthy. If they are in the right position you will be able to tell the sex of the baby too!
- You might be able to feel your baby's movements now
- Are you experiencing swollen feet and/or hands? As long as the swelling isn't sudden or severe it is just another niggling pregnancy symptom.
- The baby may be putting a lot of pressure on your back now so you may start to experience backaches.
Your next steps
- If you are struggling to stay regular then keep up with your fibre and water intake. Green vegetables, fruits and whole grain foods are rife in fibre and prunes are great for pushing things along. Avoid over the counter laxatives and stick to a healthy diet and you should find yourself getting going again
- Keep your calcium and vitamin D levels up for good bone growth and development. It is recommended to take one vitamin D supplement a day.
- Have you got a maternity pillow yet? You may be struggling to sleep due to your bump so now is the time to invest in some support.
Note: These are just general ideas of how you and your baby are getting on. Don't forget that every baby develops differently. If you are concerned about your baby's development, please consult your doctor or midwife.
