World Journal of Surgical Research Volume No 8
Original Article
The aim of our work is to present the outcomes and complications that occurred to a group of 49 consecutive patients affected by a severe musculoaponeurotic laxity and or different abdominal wall defects, who underwent prosthetic wall defect repair and abdominoplasty. Severe laxity was the end result of repeated pregnancies in most of the female patients. A further aim of the work is also to demonstrate the metabolic and aesthetic advantages that occur with the association between prosthetic hernias repair and abdominoplasty.
All patients underwent a standard abdominoplasty (wide bispinoiliac incision with resection of the redundant tissue) plus a longitudinal midline fascia plication and a prosthetic parietal defect repair. 15 patients were affected by different comorbidities (8.3% heart diseases; 2.1% COBP; 8.3% diabetes; 4.2% hepatic cirrhosis; 2.1% obliterant arteritis; 6.3% others).
The follow-up averaged 22.08 months. Two patients had a major complication (hemorrhage, infection), while 12 had minor ones (partial necrosis of the limb, seroma, suture dehiscence).
Hernias or recti abdominis diastasis repair, combined with abdominoplasty provides functional, metabolic and aesthetic benefits. This approach is safe owing to a low risk of complications and a low rate of recurrence. Moreover, it is particularly helpful in obese patients, improving the metabolic state outcomes. It is especially helpful in patients who have multiple hernias, and those patients with recurrent wall defects.

Through Careers through Culinary Arts Program (C-CAP), we've been introduced to a lot of great chefs over the past few months. After getting to know Café Katja's Executive Chef, Swainson Brown, we are eager to visit the Lower East Side establishment!
FP: How did you get your start with cooking?
SB: When I was seven years old, I was tall enough to see over the top of the stove in the kitchen of our house in Kingston, Jamaica. My mother encouraged my sister and I to cook. For our first experiment, we made egg pancakes. We mixed one egg with a half cup of water and whipped the mixture to a very fluffy consistency. We then dropped the mixture onto an oiled skillet and from just one egg we were able to make over 20 pancakes. I was amazed at the result of our experiment. From that day on, I became curious and interested in food and ingredients.
FP: When did you decide you wanted to be a chef?
SB: My family moved to Brooklyn when I was a teenager. I enrolled in the culinary arts class at George W. Wingate High School. My teacher Barbara Joseph said, "Why don't you pay more attention in class instead of being in the back of the room with the girls. There is a scholarship program that I can get you involved with that can pay your way to culinary school."
She introduced me to C-CAP and mentored me to help secure the spot in the C-CAP New York Cooking Competition for Scholarships. That's when I was ready to display my incredible skills and techniques in the kitchen and to show off my newfound love of food.
The year that I competed in the final competition, the two-course French meal included a savory recipe of Poached Guinea Hen with Turned Carrots, Potatoes, and Zucchini, and a dessert recipe of Dessert Crêpes with Pastry Crème and Chocolate Sauce. While I was creating my crêpes, Chef Marcus Samuelsson was observing my technique, and asked about tasting one of the crêpes. I presented the crêpe to him for tasting, stopped creating the rest for the competition, and prepared one for each judge. The judges laughed about the fact that I stopped to make crêpes for them, and that I thought I had enough time to finish my presentation for judging. I did complete the dishes in time for the judging.
FP: Way to make an impression!
What do you enjoy most about being a chef?
SB: I enjoy a combination of things. I really enjoy cooking. I find that I feel like I am at home in the kitchen. That's my happy place. I have a creative nature and I get to explore lots of possibilities every day. I like to share my love and passion for cooking and my culinary knowledge with my team.
I worked with Doug Psaltis at Country restaurant. He was my mentor and to this day I follow his advice that it's important for each person in the kitchen to learn everything, share information, and to help each other to be a good team where everyone is watching out for each other.
I was very lucky to fulfill my externship from culinary school at The Mark Hotel. I was hired after my externship by David Paulstich and then worked there with Andrew Chase for several years. Together we explored flavors, cuisines, and developed our working relationship and friendship. Andrew called on me to help him open Café Katja, and now I am working with him again as Executive Chef. I have found the perfect setting to apply my techniques for infusing spices in my homemade sausages and bratwurst.
FP: Share with us your involvement with C-CAP.
SB: I am proud to be able to mentor C-CAP students by hiring and training them for jobs in my restaurants. C-CAP and C-CAP Founder Richard Grausman have taught me to try to give back and help others when possible. I have been very fortunate to work with chefs and restaurateurs who support my interest in educating and nurturing the next generation of chefs. I will be working with C-CAP President Susan Robbins to encourage alumni to get more involved with C-CAP and to mentor our students.
FP: That's great that you find time to give back!
When you're not working at Café Katja, what are some of your favorite meals to cook for yourself ?
SB: I really enjoy making savory dishes and my favorite go-to for dinner for one is Hot Curried Chicken with Rice, Peas, and Broccoli. I ask my friend who is a pastry chef to bring over the desserts.
FP: What are some of your guilty pleasures? We like to call them foodie pleasures, hence the name.
SB: I enjoy tasting the new drinks from my mixology friends, and food wise, I am a really big fan of Buttermilk Fried Chicken.
FP: Mmm…buttermilk fried chicken! We'll take two please!
If you hadn't become a chef, what would you be doing? Any non-cooking hobbies?
FP: I thought of becoming a lawyer. I like to argue and win and stand up for those who need to be defended. My non-cooking hobbies include deep-water fishing on the ocean.
FP: We hope you get to enjoy the ocean very soon! Thank you again for your time. We will make sure to stop Café Katja in the very near future.
If anyone is interested in joining us to taste some of Chef Swainson's cooking at Café Katja this summer, let us know!

NGS photo of Emperor penguins by W. Edward Roscher

Penguin poop (guano) stains, visible from space, have helped British scientists locate emperor penguin breeding colonies in Antarctica, the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) said today.
Knowing the location of the penguins provides a baseline for monitoring their response to environmental change.
In a study published this week in the journal Global Ecology and Biogeography, BAS scientists describe how they used satellite images to survey the sea ice around 90 percent of Antarctica's coast to search for emperor penguin colonies.
Ten New Emperor Penguin Colonies Found
"The survey identified a total of 38. Ten of those were new. Of the previously known colonies six had re-located and six were not found," BAS said.
"Because emperor penguins breed on sea-ice during the Antarctic winter little is known about their colonies. Reddish brown patches of guano on the ice, visible in satellite images, provide a reliable indication of their location."
"We can't see actual penguins on the satellite maps because the resolution isn't good enough,"
BAS Mapping expert Peter Fretwell explains in a BAS news release. "But during the breeding season the birds stay at a colony for eight months. The ice gets pretty dirty and it's the guano stains that we can see."

Emperor penguins spend a large part of their lives at sea. During the Antarctic winter when temperatures drop to minus 58 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 50 degrees Celsius). they return to their colonies to breed on sea ice, but this is a time when it is most difficult for scientists to monitor them.
"Now we know exactly where the penguins are."
— BAS Penguin Ecologist Phil Trathan
"This is a very exciting development," BAS Penguin Ecologist Phil Trathan says. "Now we know exactly where the penguins are, the next step will be to count each colony so we can get a much better picture of population size. Using satellite images combined with counts of penguin numbers puts us in a much better position to monitor future population changes over time."
This research builds on work by French scientists who extensively studied one colony and found the population was at significant risk from climate change. The six colonies not found in this study were at a similar latitude suggesting that emperor penguins may be at risk all around Antarctica, BAS said.

How It Was Done
From the abstract of the research paper in Global Ecology and Biogeography:
"Using Landsat ETM satellite images downloaded from the Landsat Image Mosaic of Antarctica (LIMA), we detect fecal staining of ice by emperor penguins associated with their colony locations.
"Emperor penguins breed on sea ice, and their colonies exist in situ between May and December each year.
"Fecal staining at these colony locations shows on Landsat imagery as brown patches, the only staining of this colour on sea ice. This staining can therefore be used as an analogue for colony locations.
"The whole continental coastline has been analyzed, and each possible signal has been identified visually and checked by spectral analysis. In areas where LIMA data are unsuitable, freely available Landsat imagery has been supplemented."
Results: "We have identified colony locations of emperor penguins at a total of 38 sites. Of these, 10 are new locations, and six previously known colony locations have been repositioned (by over 10 km) due to poor geographical information in old records. Six colony locations, all from old or unconfirmed records, were not found or have disappeared."
Map of locations of Emperor penguin colonies in Antarctica courtesy British Antarctic Survey
Main conclusions: "We present a new pan-Antarctic species distribution of emperor penguins mapped from space. In one synoptic survey we locate extant emperor penguin colonies, a species previously poorly mapped due to its unique breeding habits, and provide a vital geographical resource for future studies of an iconic species believed to be vulnerable to future climate change."
Why are emperor penguin population numbers important?
From the British Antarctic Survey Web site
Emperor penguins on the sea ice close to Halley Research Station on the Brunt Ice Shelf. The young Emperor chicks are moulting.
Emperor penguins (Aptenodytes forsteri) breed in colonies on the sea ice that surrounds much of the coast of Antarctica.
These colonies can range in size from a few hundred to many thousands of pairs, however, scientists have been unable to estimate the total number of emperor penguins in Antarctica.
The colonies generally only exist in the most inaccessible of locations and access during the harshest weather conditions is extremely difficult.
In addition, we don't know where all the colonies are located.
Estimates of the total number of penguins range between 200,000 and 400,000 pairs, but changes in the sea ice on which they breed can affect their breeding success and the size of the colony.
We therefore need a more accurate assessment of their numbers to help us monitor future penguin population changes, and in particular, their response to climate change.

Preventing bed bugs at holiday homes & cottages
Accommodation establishments with a high rate of occupant turnover such as self catering holiday cottages and apartments, should be on the look out for bed bugs, as infestations are most frequently found in these types of dwellings.
According to the BBC there has been a massive increase in the number of bed bug infestations. Statistics from councils in London and the Midlands show the rate increased three-fold in the last decade.
Holiday rentals are particularly vulnerable due to the high turnover of guests, from both the UK and overseas. Bedbugs are effective hitchhikers and holidaymakers could infest your property by coming into contact with bugs on their travels. Once at your holiday home, the bed bugs disembark from luggage or clothes and set up home, breeding at a phenomenal rate.
Contrary to belief, infestations are not usually a reflection of cleanliness.
Signs that bed bugs have crept in
The fist sign of bed bugs could be an itchy swelling following being bitten, although many people don't react to bites and don't realise they have a problem until they find a bug. Bed bugs commonly hide in mattresses, carpets and in the crevices of furniture. They are a reddish-brown colour, oval-shaped, flattened and about 3mm – 5mm in size.
Other telltale signs of an infestation are black dots (bed bug faeces) on beds/furniture and bloodstains on sheets from crushed bugs.
Preventing infestations
It is important that housekeeping staff and cleaners in holiday lets carefully inspect properties for telltale signs of bed bugs. Thorough cleaning and sanitation can help prevent infestations, although the main risk is that they are transported from a host site.
Although they are not considered a major health risk, they can be unpleasant to live with. The worry is that your holidaymakers could come into contact with them and report this at review sites. This could damage your reputation and affect future bookings.
If you discover an infestation, call a professional extermination firm. For further information on prevention and treatments visit http://www.bed-bugs.co.uk/

Nails Inc Gel Effect Polish
Nails Inc Gel Effect Polish
The Nails Inc Gel Effect Polish is a best-selling range which has been formulated with revolutionary plasticiser technology for a flawless at-home manicure.
The Gel Effect polish glides on effortlessly and the extra-wide brush ensures easy application.
Highly-pigmented to provide exceptional coverage and with a plumping agent to level out any imperfections on the nail.
Hello to all you gorgeous readers out there!
I hope you're all well and having a wonderful weekend so far!
Well, it's August and seeing as the sun is shining, I thought it would be the perfect time to feature this beautiful selection of Nail colours from Nails Inc!
With stunning summer colours and being described as a range to provide you with a flawless at-home manicure, lets see what the Nails Inc Gel Effect Polishes are really like....
Nails Inc Gel Effect Polish
As you can see, Nails Inc are stepping away from the traditional circular bottle and their ranges now look like this - rectangular so to speak which is perfect if you like lining up your polishes in colour order.
I think I've mentioned it in a previous post but the cap actually lifts-off (scroll to see photos) so you've got the wand applicator underneath the cap which is another great feature from Nails Inc.
Nails Inc Gel Effect Polish
Long Wear, High Shine - these polishes which you can see on the right are not from the Gel Effect range but I've featured them as they have such a high-shine (no top coat needed) which is just like the Gel Effect range.
The Gel Effect range has the revolutionary plasticiser formula to leave your nails looking perfect however these two colours are just as good which is why they're featured in this post 🙂
Nails Inc Gel Effect Polish
As mentioned above, the Nails Inc Gel Effect Polish has a special formulation featuring a revolutionary plasticiser technology which gives you nails a flawless at-home manicure.
If you're anything like me, then you'll be loving this range but here are a few things to look out for.
Nails Inc Gel Effect Polish: Layers/Coats
Apply light layers - don't apply thick coats of this nail polish as the formulation (Gel Effect) has been specially developed and created to give you a lovely at-home manicure.
It's a highly-pigmented range overall but the formulation contains a plumping agent to level-out any imperfections so you're always guaranteed a lovely colour and high-shine.
Nails Inc Gel Effect Polish: After Applying
The only downside to the gel effect nail polish is that it takes slightly longer to apply.
Now you don't need a top coat as you already have a beautiful high-shine from the nail polish but I recommend using a fast-drying top coat (Nails Inc 45 Second Top Coat) or fast-drying nail drops to speed up the process.
Below you can see some more photos of the nail polishes and also some photos of me wearing different colours 🙂
As always, here is the best part of the post! 🙂
Below, you'll find all the links to the official shopping pages.
Simply click the links and you'll be taken to the official Nails Inc Website where you can shop the colours I'm featuring - along with a few additions or click the image selection to view the colours. 🙂

BANGKOK — A Thai property developer has announced plans to build a skyscraper in Bangkok that will be among the 10 tallest buildings in the world when it is completed in 2019.
The 125-floor tower will rise 615 meters (2,018 feet) and include a luxury hotel, offices and an observation deck with panoramic views of the Thai capital, developer Grand Canal Land Public Company Ltd. said in a statement.
According to the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat, which maintains a database of the tallest skyscrapers, the Bangkok "Super Tower" will be the world's ninth tallest if it is built on schedule.
The developer intends the tower as the center of a new business, shopping and residential district in Bangkok costing 100 billion baht ($3.1 billion).
The ambitious plans, which were announced Tuesday, are a vote of confidence in the Thai economy, which has lost much of its dynamism and struggled to grow during several years of political strife.
The military seized power from the elected government on May 22, the 12th coup in Thailand since the end of its absolute monarchy in 1932. Martial law remains in place but business and daily life continues as normal.
The tallest building in the world is currently Dubai's Burj Khalifa, which has 163 floors and is 828 meters (2,717 feet) high.

various 1990 dance RnB/freestyle from Honolulu
This summer my girlfriend and I had a day layover in Honolulu coming back from vacation. So, as usual, instead of visiting all the local tourist spots, we immediately headed over to the thrift store (charity shop, as they say here in the UK) on the wrong side of town. I managed to pick up a vintage Matsuda men's jackets (sweet) and then we decided to walk back through the local cars-parked-on-cement-blocks hood to reach our hotel on the beach. On the way we lucked out with a random yard sale run by two sisters (who had a LOT of loving to give) selling their old school late 80s RnB dance tapes.
Late Nite Magic had only one track out according to discogs and I can't find any more info. The cover says it was produced in LA. But I can't really find much info about the artists or the remixers Rock Vee or Teddy and John Bolden.
Late Nite Magic - Huneez (Magic Radio Mix)
Late Nite Magic - Huneez (Magic Radio Mix - TV Track)
Again I can't really find much info about Sunni and she had only a few more tracks out that Late Nite Magic. She had a bit of a Paula Abdul moment on the fresh youtube dance moves. You can find some early 90s house remixes of this track here. But this track was produced by Chris Barbosa and Mark Liggett who were key producers in the Freestyle genre (wikipedia). Their track Fire and Ice was the original which Shannon covered to become the huge hit Let The Music Play.
Sunni - Why Did My Baby Get Over Me (12" mix)
Sunni - Why Did My Baby Get Over Me (single mix)
As for Seduction. I don't have to say much about them because they were produced by Robert Clivilles And David Cole of C+C Music Factory fame. This has some nice dance touches to it though the group never got very big.
Seduction - (You're My One And Only) True Love (Club Mix)
Finally we have this "funk rock" tape which is actually mostly what I would call "electro" - the real original electro, not the Benny Bennasi circa 2005 type. It's got a bunch of great tracks on it such as (Notin' serious) Just buggin', Boogie Down Bronx, Egyption Lover, Rockberry Jam, We Don't Have to Take Our Clothes Off and more. I think it's a recording of a radio show and lots of the tracks sound really good, maybe special radio mixes.

I have a similar tape from a garage sale but I can not get a good capture on it because the signal is too weak. How did you get such a good digital recording of this?
I am adding you to my blog roll today, maybe you will do the same. Cheers!

I think people use the term "LOL" way too much when writing emails or texting. I mean, how often does someone really laugh out loud? A giggle, sure. A chortle here and there, yes. Even laughing is common, but out loud? Loud?
I did today. I was eating my lunch in my office at work, and I let out a real, loud burst of laughter when I saw the following headline from The Onion:
Stouffers to Include Suicide Prevention Tips on Single-Serve Microwaveable Meals
Really. I may have caused a disturbance at my work place when I saw that. I was laughing and it was loud.
Here's the news report from The Onion.
Get ready to laugh out loud. Really.

Perhaps after being arrested and caged like animals several times at OPP only to have their charges later dropped the brothers vowed, like Truth Universal has, to never submit to NOPD taking them back to OPP on false pretenses yet again? It's very hard to climb out of the financial hole a false arrest can put a person in, especially on a Burger King salary. It's enough to make someone very angry, especially when they are pulled over mere blocks from their workplace.
No one knows exactly how or why 2 police officers and 2 young black men ended up shot this morning in Mid-City. But we do know that the NOPD arrests young black men at a rate that causes intense resentment in our community towards the cops. And we know that the NOPD shoots young black men dozens of times every year, making every encounter with law enforcement potentially deadly if you happen to be young and black.
Apartheid Police State we live in.
Pulled over for no reason on their way to work, these young men, already victims of the apartheid police state multiple times over by being locked up again and again while never convicted of any crime, no doubt felt targeted, harassed, and angry when they were pulled over for absolutely no reason this morning in Mid-City. One can only imagine their frustration and anger as the police made them late for work for a "pro-active traffic stop."
If people are angry that 2 police were shot, blame the system that pays them to harass, cage, and often to murder young black men in the streets, and engender the type of anger that could lead to such shootings. We have to get the NOPD to stop waging war on our fellow New Orleanians!
Jerome Simon, an uncle to the brothers, described his nephews as close knit and hard working. "They are home-body individuals. They go to work and come home, seriously. That's a fact."
"They respect the law. I really, truly believe they won't try to harm anybody," said Simon.
"They (NOPD) are supposed to be protecting around here, but they're not doing their job. 'Cause if they was, they would have all the ones they keep putting back out on the streets with these guns," said one of the victim's girlfriend. "It was a regular routine day...now all of the sudden this."

In 1993, the GVRD (now Metro) and Transport 2021, published the study, "The Cost of Transporting People in the BC Lower Mainland" and for the first time the annual SkyTrain subsidy was mentioned. In 1991, SkyTrain was subsidized to the tune of$157.6 million, more than half of the total subsidy paid for public transit in the Lower Mainland. BC Transit then, as TransLink does today, ignores this vast sum of taxpayer's dollars subsidizing the metro and make erroneous statements that SkyTrain pays its operating costs, etc.
The portion of the SkyTrain subsidy is thus:
Gas tax – $17.8 mil. out of $47.4 mil. collected
Hydro Levy – $4.7 mil. out of $12.6 mil. collected
Property Tax – $9 mil. out of $24 mil. collected
Property Tax – $5.2 mil. out of $14 mil collected
Government – $120.9 mil. out of $196.8 mil. paid
Total – $157.6 out of $294.8 paid
With the opening of the Millennium Line, SkyTrain's annual subsidy increased past $200 million and with the RAV/Canada Line metro, again this subsidy will once again increase.
What is interesting to note, just one years worth of SkyTrain's annual subsidy could fund a basic Vancouver to Chilliwack Interurban demonstration service; two years worth of SkyTrain's annual subsidy could fund a hourly or better Vancouver to Chilliwack Interurban service!

The Cboe S&P 500 Multi-Week BuyWrite IndexSM is a variation of the Cboe BuyWrite index (BXM) that buffers the impact of negative S&P 500® returns by selling calls on a weekly basis instead of once a month. The BXMW tracks the value of a portfolio (BXMW) composed of an investment in S&P 500 stocks overlaid by short positions in 1/4 each of weekly SPX options that expire over the next four consecutive weeks.
The BXMW portfolio is rebalanced every Friday, after one the SPX options expires, at the open of the third Friday of the month, and the close on the other Fridays. That option is replaced by a quarter of a new SPX option expiring approximately four weeks later.

Accord: 2008 Honda Accord - Introduction
"Action without philosophy is a lethal weapon; philosophy without action is worthless."
To expand on the wisdom of a company founder, part of the Honda customer-focused philosophy - the creation of innovative products that enhance mobility and benefit society - illustrates how the company strives to address important environmental and safety issues as a socially-responsible global citizen.
The 2008 Honda Accord embodies the company's philosophy through its sophisticated fuel-saving technology (Variable Cylinder Management), lower emissions (Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle certification) and application of a pioneering safety technology (Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ body structure). Innovation is further conveyed through an emphasis on expressive and upscale styling, fun-to-drive performance, innovative packaging and - in the spirit of hospitality - the creation of a larger interior.
Honda's dedication to supplying desirable products of the highest quality at reasonable prices is driven by the pride its associates take in the design, manufacture and sale of its entire product line.
While dependability, quality and reliability define every Honda product, that solid base empowers the company to exceed customer expectations by providing styling, performance, safety, refinement and value that few competitors can match across the board. The all-new eighth-generation 2008 Accord is ready to set an entirely new benchmark for the automotive mainstream with the most dramatic styling, the largest passenger space, and the greatest range of technology in the vehicle's 32-year history.

Overview of Hostel
The lodge focuses on continuing the Mamallena tradition of great service and honesty alongside this we will be using organic, culture influenced agricultural techniques to run the Finca and help provide a self sustainable environment. There is a huge array of fruit tree orchards including lemons, l
Our Shuttle Service
We run a shuttle service from the Lodge and Panama City. The shuttle needs to be pre-booked usually by at least a day or two and is not always available, so please inquire at your earliest convenience. Normal times are as follows but we are flexible.
Panama City Mamallena Hostel/Lunas Castle Hostel to Mamallena Eco Lodge
Mamallena Eco Lodge to Panama City
Shuttle Prices – One Way:
1-2pp – $30
3-6ppl – $15pp
Larger groups please email.
From Panama City by bus:
1. Take a bus from ALbrook bus terminal in Panama City to any of the following locations – Penonome – El valle de anton – San Carlos – Aguadulce – Tell them you want to get off at Coronado (Approx $3)
2. So this is the last stop where you can buy some supplies. There are numerous supermarkets and other stores close by including Rey, Super 99, Riba Smith and Machetazo.
3. Go the Las lajas Mini Market which is where the shared collectivo mini buses run from in our direction. The store is located on the corner of the road just before a gas station and cochez building store. Coming from Panama city you will normally have disembarked at the bus station opposite Mc donalds , stay on the same side of the road and turn back towards Panama City, you will see a large building store (cochez) and gas station after it on your left, walk past these and there will be a small car park with a few shops (restaurant, laundromat and on the corner las lajas mini market).
4. Most of the La Laguna collectivos will bring you directly to the lodge for $3pp. Most days they run from around 6am to 6pm, but best not leave it too late, if there are no collectivos a taxi is around $30 and from El Valle around $20-25. We can do collections if you are coming from EL Valle email for details
From David or any other Location west of Coronado on the Pan American Highway
Coming from this direction you can take any bus that is going to Panama City. I expect you will be dropped near Mcdonalds in Coronado, so you will need to cross the main road and walk past cochez store and the gas station to get to Las Lajas mini market. Please see above for instructions from here.
The collectivos generally stop running at around 6-7pm, we advise aiming to arrive in Coronado 4pm at the latest so that you are sure to get to the lodge before dark and any problems can be dealt with, like bus delays etc. Bus tranfer times vary dramatically, depending on the bus, people on board and number of stops. But in general from Panama City you would be looking at 1.5-2hrs to Coronado. From David approx 5hrs, from Las Lajas 4hrs, Pedasi/Playa Venoe 5-6hrs, Santiago 2-3hrs, Santa Catalina 5-6hrs. These are all approx and just give you an idea.
Taxi from Coronado to Eco Lodge is around $25-30. From El Valle it is $20-25. There is an alternative option from El Valle by bus and car, please email us for more info.
Directions by Car
From Panama City:
To get to us drive on the Panamerican highway towards Santiago and about an hour from the city you will reach Coronado. From Coronado (Las Lajas) you take the road to La Laguna which is next to Las Lajas mini market (on the right hand side just after you go under a footbridge that crosses the Panamerican highway right at the entrance to Coronado), this is next to the large gas station which is next to the cochez building store, if you see the gas station and cochez store you have missed the turning and will need to turn around. The mini market has a car park in front of it and some other small shops next door. This is all on the right if coming from Panama City. You take the road to La Laguna for 18km. You will get to a bus stop with flowers painted on it and a sign saying mamallena eco lodge 2.5km, we are on the left hand side, you will cross a bridge at the bottom of the hill first and we are approx 200 meters after the bridge on the left, there will be another sign. Any problems give me a call.
From Santiago:
To get to us drive towards Panama City, you go past the turn off for El Valle and then through a small town called San Carlos and Coronado is about 8km after this. As you drive through Coronado you will pass Mcdonalds on your right and then Rey supermarket on your right as well. You will be taing the next left which is just after a gas station on your left. After turning left which takes you onto the road for La Laguna. See above instructions.
The closest point of reference on google maps is the San Carlos Laguna about 15 minutes away, it will not help you get here but gives you an idea of where we are.".
Located near
We are only 20 minutes from the busy mountain town of El Valle and 35 mins from the commercial hub of Coronado. A new road goes through a section of the property which makes us both remote and easily accessible at the same time.

LYNN — It is an experience familiar to most bus riders: a chase to catch a departing bus, desperate bangs on the door, the despair of watching the vehicle disappear into the distance.
But when an Everett man was left by a Route 455 bus outside Wonderland station, he sought revenge, police say.
Paul J. Kouroyen, 33, pleaded not guilty Friday in Lynn District
Court to charges of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, a shod
foot, after prosecutors said he attacked the MBTA driver who had pulled
out of Wonderland Station Thursday night and refused to stop to pick
him up.
Bail was set at $1,000 cash, and Kouroyen was ordered to stay off
the Route 455 bus. He was also ordered to avoid the driver and a witness
who identified him to police.
The driver was identified in court papers and by the MBTA as Baulo
Rodrigues, though the mailbox at his listed address read Paulo
Susan Dolhun, assistant Essex district attorney, said Kouroyen
attempted to board the Route 455 bus after it left Wonderland Station in
Revere, chasing the bus and banging on the side door. Rodrigues did not
open the door because the bus was en route, Dolhun said.
"There was no reason for Mr. Rodrigues to stop the bus in the first
place in Revere when it wasn't at a designated stop," Dolhun said.
Kouroyen took the next bus to Lynn, the Route 439 bus, authorities
say. In a bizarre twist, that bus arrived at Lynn's Central Square 12
minutes before the one he originally attempted to board.
After arriving in Central Square, police said, Kouroyen found the bus
that had left him in Revere and confronted the driver with angry words.
He then moved to the back of the bus, but when Rodrigues called MBTA
officials to report the confrontation, police say Kouroyen returned to
the front of the bus and began punching and kicking the driver.
"He [Rodrigues] tried to defend himself, but during the struggle
Kouroyen kicked him in the left shin," the Transit Police report said.
Kouroyen fled as Lynn police arrived, but they quickly located him
nearby and arrested him after he was identified as the attacker, police
"This defendant violently assaulted the bus driver, apparently when
there were people on the bus in a public area," Dolhun said. "He
obviously has some serious anger issues."
Kouroyen's lawyer said his client has had "very few" criminal convictions on his record, all for motor vehicle charges.
He is unemployed, attends Bunker Hill Community College, and lives with his grandmother in Everett, the lawyer said.
The 50-year-old driver was taken to Union Hospital in Lynn for
treatment. He sustained bruises to his left and right cheek and
lacerations on his left leg and on his fingers, Transit Police said.
Rodrigues, a 12-year T veteran, is recovering at home and is expected
to return to work, MBTA acting General Manager Jonathan Davis said.
Hostility toward bus and train operators is a problem that has worried T officials for a while, Davis said Friday.
Last May, in a report to the MBTA board of directors, Davis said he
had noticed an increase in assaults on MBTA operators, particularly
people spitting on drivers attempting to collect fares, and called the
behavior "outrageous and disgusting."
At Davis's direction, the MBTA launched a "thanks for being nice"
campaign earlier this year to encourage passengers to treat T operators
with respect.
Hundreds of cards were distributed with the message: "We appreciate
you riding the T, but we also appreciate when you're nice to our bus
operators, too. They are doing all they can to ensure a safe, pleasant
trip for all."
At this point in 2011, 62 assaults on MBTA employees were reported,
said MBTA spokesman Joe Pesaturo. So far this year, 68 assaults have
been reported.
"I understand that customers are experiencing stress and dealing with
challenges in their life," Davis said, "but assaulting an MBTA employee
is never appropriate."
For bus passengers waiting at Wonderland Station Friday afternoon,
news that a bus driver was treated with disrespect was not surprising.
Stefan Sandman, a 22-year-old student living in Chelsea, recalled an
episode last week on the Route 117 bus, where a passenger, incensed that
the driver missed his stop, made disparaging comments about her weight.
"I have seen a little more attitude lately towards bus drivers," Sandman said.
Shana Otolo, 27, who takes the bus every day from Lynn to her job at a
dentist's office in Government Center, said she has witnessed abusive
behavior, too.
"I see it all the time, yelling at bus drivers, taking advantage of the fact that they can't do anything back," said Otolo.
Friday morning, Otolo said, the driver of her bus talked with
passengers about her worries after hearing about the assault in Lynn.
"Maybe I shouldn't open the door after yesterday," Otolo recalled the driver saying.

Cheese Blintzes with Mixed Berry Sauce
Amy Kritzer
Recipe type:
Side Dish
Prep time:
1 hour 30 mins
Cook time:
20 mins
Total time:
1 hour 50 mins
Classic cheese blintzes with a super tasty seasonal berry compote!
For batter:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
⅛ teaspoon salt
3 eggs
1 cup milk
1 tablespoon butter, melted and cooled
For filling:
4 ounces cream cheese
1 cup ricotta
¼ cup Greek yogurt
¼ cup powdered sugar
Zest from one lemon
For fruit compote:
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 pint blueberries (reserve some for garnish)
1 pint raspberries (reserve some for garnish)
¼ cup sugar (more if you want a sweeter compote)
1 teaspoon cornstarch
Juice from 1 lemon (zest for the filling before juicing!)
Unsalted butter for cooking and powdered sugar for garnish.
First, make your blintz batter. Combine the flour, sugar and salt. Then add the eggs, milk and butter and whisk until no lumps remain. Let your batter rest in the refrigerator at least 1 hour to let the gluten relax.
While your batter is chilling, you can make the filling by whisking together the cream cheese, ricotta, Greek yogurt (I use Chobani!), powdered sugar and lemon zest.
Set that aside and make the berry compote. Combine the butter, blueberries, raspberries, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice in a medium pan or pot over medium-high heat. Stir constantly while breaking up the berries a little but still keeping in chunky. Bring up to a low boil and stir gently for about five minutes. The compote will thicken more as it cools.
Now time to assemble! To make blintzes, butter a 9-inch nonstick pan with a thin coat of butter over medium high heat. Then pour ¼ cup of batter into the pan to coat the bottom. Swirl the pan to coat evenly. After about a minute you will see the ends begin to curl up- your blintz is done! Do not flip. Slide blintzes onto parchment paper to allow them to cool. Don't layer blintzes together or they will stick! Spread a spoonful of the cheese mixture towards the bottom of each blintz. Fold the bottom of the blintz up to cover the filling and then fold the sides in. Then roll like a little Jewish burrito!
Add 1-tablespoon butter back to the medium nonstick pan over medium high heat and cook on each side until golden brown- or about 1-2 minutes per side. Drizzle berry compote over blintzes, and sprinkle with fresh fruit and powdered sugar for garnish.

Stress is all around us. In everyday life, in family life but more commonly that not, within the work place. Not all stress is...
Stress is all around us. In everyday life, in family life but more commonly that not, within the work place. Not all stress is bad – think of the thing that last propelled you to meet that almost impossible target – but there are some cases where stress becomes too much.
Such a heavy burden can slowly but surely eat away at your health, both physical and emotion. But there is help out there; the first step is to recognize when you are stressed and then, what you can do to deal with both the source and symptoms of it.
There are many scientifically proven ways to help you reduce stress on a daily basis – why not try these…?
#1 Sit up straightYou may recall being told to sit up straight as a child, and this would have been for a variety of reasons but psychologists now believe that there is a basis to this and that is the influence it has on our behaviour.
Slouching and being slovenly produces a similar behaviour and attitude in us; sitting up straight can help us feel less stressed and tense, with various studies proving that this is the case. Some psychologists believe that sitting and standing up straight and erect give the physical and emotional mind a sense of power, a known buffer to stress. Feeling in control is important.
#2 Being organisedSome people seem to be naturally organised; they spend a portion of their day preparing for the next, clearing away one day's clutter, leaving the way free for productive work.
And studies have again shown that being surrounded by clutter can be stress-inducing. Hence, the time have come to do 2 things:
- Tackle that mountain of papers and files, along with other clutter – get rid of stuff you don't need, and find a place for the rest
- And stay organised – it literally takes only a few moments each day to get yourself organised for the following day but don't fall back in to old habits; if you no longer need something, get rid of it and if you are no longer going to use it but want to store it, then find it a home… and this is not creating a new pile next to your desk!
#3 Recognise when you accept unrealistic goals… and ditch themAmbition is not to be sniffed at but, setting yourself goals that are simply unattainable is a too high a bar for you to reach. Failing to reach these lofty goals and ambitions simply crush your self-esteem… you feel out of control… you start to feel stressed… you set more goals… you fail at these… and so the downward spiral continues.
The key is flexibility and understanding that when you miss a goal, this is not necessarily a sign of failure.
#4 Avoid interruptionsNot being able to get on with your work is a common reason why some people begin to feel stressed and some of these interruptions we encourage and introduce into our working day; for example, constantly checking and immediately responding to emails… taking time to check out social media… finding an interesting article on the web… before you know it, the working day has passed and your productivity for the day is virtually zero.
Researchers in Germany found that interruptions from the phone ringing to the constant checking of emails creates stress ad our focus is broken. The suggestion to help maintain this flow that should you need to leave your work, make a note of where you are at so that when you return, you can pick up the mantle again.

Bulls spoil Lue's coaching debut, beat Cavaliers
By AP - Jan 24,2016 - Last updated at Jan 25,2016

CLEVELAND — Tyronn Lue didn't make much of a difference in his coaching debut for Cleveland as Pau Gasol scored 25 points, leading the Chicago Bulls to a 96-83 win over the Cavaliers on Saturday night.
Lue was promoted on Friday, when the Cavaliers fired David Blatt despite him taking the team to the NBA finals last season and currently leading the Eastern Conference. The coaching swap didn't have any immediate impact on the Bulls, who outhustled the Cavs to loose balls and won for just the third time in nine games.
Jimmy Butler scored 20 points, Nikola Mirotic added 17 and Taj Gibson 15 for Chicago, which opened a 17-point lead in the third quarter and never let the Cavs get closer than eight in the fourth.
LeBron James just missed his first triple-double this season, finishing with 26 points, 13 rebounds and nine assists. J.R. Smith added 18 points.
Suns 98, Hawks 95
Archie Goodwin hit a three-pointer from atop the arc with 0.1 seconds left and Phoenix beat Atlanta to end a six-game losing streak.
Goodwin led the Suns with 24 points and Phoenix won for the second time in 17 games.
Tyson Chandler tied a Suns record with 27 rebounds, including 17 in the first half, and also had 13 points and a season-high five assists.
Kent Bazemore led the Hawks with 21 points. Bazemore hit a tying three-pointer with 47.4 seconds left, but Chandler's tip-in with 24.6 seconds remaining gave the Suns a 95-93 lead. Bazemore tied it again 5 seconds later, setting up Goodwin's three.
Alex Len had 16 points and 12 rebounds for Phoenix, while P.J. Tucker scored 16 points and Devin Booker had 15.
Timberwolves 106, Grizzlies 101
Shabazz Muhammad scored 25 points and Minnesota snapped Memphis' four-game winning streak.
Ricky Rubio had 15 points, 12 assists and six rebounds and Andrew Wiggins scored 19 points for the Timberwolves, who beat a team with a winning record for the first time since November 25. Minnesota improved to just 7-17 at home this season.
Mario Chalmers scored 19 points for the banged-up Grizzlies. Marc Gasol played through pain and finished with 17 points in 32 minutes. The Grizzlies had the ball down one with 35 seconds to play but were whistled for a five-second call on the inbound.
Nuggets 104, Pistons 101
Danilo Gallinari scored 30 points, including the go-ahead jumper with 23.8 seconds remaining, and Denver rallied to beat Detroit.
Emmanuel Mudiay added 18 points and Nikola Jokic 17 for the Nuggets, who won their sixth in a row against the Pistons in Denver.
Marcus Morris had 20 points to lead the Pistons, who have lost five of their last seven games. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope added 16 points and Aron Baynes had 13 points and 10 rebounds.
Kings 108, Pacers 97
DeMarcus Cousins had a career-high 48 points along with 13 rebounds to help Sacramento beat Indiana for their season-high fifth straight win.
Rajon Rondo had 11 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists for his second straight triple-double and sixth of the season for Sacramento. Darren Collison had 11 points and rookie Willie Cauley-Stein had 12 rebounds.
The Kings, winners of eight of 11 in January, used a strong third quarter to build an 11-point lead and never relinquished it in the fourth. Sacramento have beaten Indiana four straight times, sweeping the season series the last two years.
Paul George had 24 of his 34 points in the second half for the Pacers, who have lost two straight and five of six. Jordan Hill had 17 points and 13 rebounds, Monta Ellis scored 16 and rookie Myles Turner added 11 points and five blocks.
Trail Blazers 121, Lakers 103
Damian Lillard had 36 points and the Trail Blazers beat Los Angeles for Kobe Bryant's last game in Portland.
CJ McCollum added 28 points and the Blazers led by as many as 27 points in the first half on the way to their eighth straight victory over the Lakers.
D'Angelo Russell came off the bench with 21 points for the Lakers, who dropped their sixth straight game. But all eyes were on Bryant, a Portland nemesis dating back to the 2000 Western Conference finals, who finished with 10 points.
It was the second of a back-to-back for the Lakers, who fell 108-95 to the San Antonio Spurs on Friday night. The game fell on the 10th anniversary of Bryant's 81-point game against Toronto, which remains the second-highest scoring game in NBA history.
Hornets 97, Knicks 84
Jeremy Lin and Kemba Walker scored 26 points each and Charlotte beat New York for their third win in the last four games.
Lin and Walker were a combined 19 of 19 from the free-throw line. Charlotte only shot 34 per cent from the field, but made 32 of 37 free throws as a team.
P.J. Hairston chipped in with a season-high 20 points and 10 rebounds for the Hornets, who beat the Knicks for the fifth straight time at home despite being without five players, including three starters.
Derrick Williams led the Knicks with 19 points and 14 rebounds, and Kristaps Porzingis had 13 points.
Pelicans 116, Bucks 99
Ryan Anderson scored 23 points and tied a season-high with six three-pointers, leading hot-shooting New Orleans to a win over Milwaukee.
New Orleans trailed 71-69 after Milwaukee's Khris Middleton scored 14 points in the first 9 minutes of the third quarter, but the Pelicans responded with a 31-14 run. Jrue Holiday, Toney Douglas, Tyreke Evans and Anderson all hit three-pointers during that stretch, and Anderson's sixth three giving the Pelicans a 100-83 lead with 6:30 left.
Anthony Davis had 22 points, seven rebounds and five assists for New Orleans, who hit a season-best 17 of 31 threes. Holiday added 13 points and nine assists off the bench.
Milwaukee had all five starters in double figures but got only 16 points from their reserves.

How it works.
Once we have a service agreement in place we determine the best route to manage your projects. Some of our clients utilize project management software, such as Acculynx, that www.paperwriters.org/ allow us to be a user on their system so we can send notifications of depreciation/supplements through the system. For our other clients we utilize a wide range of cloud based storage services allowing our clients to access their project folders from any smart phone or computer 24/7.
What is an Insurance Supplement?
In many cases, a supplemental insurance claim is necessary to cover additional repairs that were not first included in the original estimate. Claims Connection is dedicated to ensuring that your company correctly prepares all supplemental estimates required for your client's to receive full compensation for the damage to their home or property. In other cases, a supplemental claim may be necessary if the price of repairing the damage to your client's property has changed. For example, the cost of material or labor may increase over the course of a long-term repair. Thus, a supplemental claim will be necessary for your client to receive the full benefit of their insurance policy.
Depreciation Release
If you have handled any roofing or restoration insurance jobs you know there is always the issue of sending a request to the insurance company for the release of your client's depreciation. This process can be time consuming preparing your certificates of completion then sending them to the insurance company. Then you must spend additional time calling and emailing the adjuster requesting the status of release of your client's depreciation. What we do at Claims Connection is prepare all of your certificates of completion, send them to the insurance company and continue to pressure the insurance company to release depreciation.
What is Depreciation?
Your client's home and most of its contents, such as a television, washing machine and roof, may lose value over time due to factors such as age, wear and tear, and obsolescence. This loss in value is commonly known as "depreciation." Under most insurance policies, claim reimbursement begins with an up-front payment for the actual cash value of damage, or the value of the damaged or destroyed item(s) at the time of the loss. If your client has replacement cost coverage included on their policy, they may be able to receive additional money to cover the depreciation of these items. If this is the case, reimbursement may involve two or more payments – one www.domyhomework.pro/for your initial payment based on the actual cash value of your items and then additional payment(s) once they repair and/or replace the damaged or destroyed items and provide their insurance company with documentation.
File Supplements
Our team of qualified insurance specialists know how to properly prepare and file supplements on your behalf. Once you sign up a new insurance repair project send in the insurance paperwork prior to completing the project. Your assigned specialist will do a complete review and prepare a supplement to file with the release of depreciation once you complete the project. Most of the time the original adjuster miscalculated something in the estimate.

As a developing country, Sri Lanka has always struggled to keep herself clean. Or rather her citizens too have failed to keep her clean. Stemming from careless garbage disposal habits, today pollution has become a major concern around the country and in the world. As plastics have been identified as harmful substances, attempts are now being made to limit the use and move into reused, recycled and biodegradable materials.
In this backdrop it is essential to save our destinations and tourists attractions from pollution and save them for the future generations. It is a very few people among us who would take some extra time to dispose garbage the correct way and it is only a handful or even less that would advocate on these practices. One such individual is Sumi Moonesinghe who initiated the Nokunu Team with a pledge to keep the city clean.
What began as a door-to-door campaign has materialized into a large scale project and today the team has been able to draw the attention of various stakeholders. Initially Sumi and her team walked into less fortunate houses and educated them on the effective segregation of garbage. To ensure that these families continued the process, each house was given a garbage bin as well. Sumi then decided to take one step further and just last July, she encouraged volunteers to join her to clean the boundaries of the Beira Lake. For this project, companies based around the Beira Lake sent in their teams to clean their perimeters. The Beira Lake is an important component in Colombo as it is connected to all waterways and canals that run through the city.
Following this success, the Nokunu Team is getting ready for their next cleaning phase from Wellawatte to Pamankada running up to Thalakotuwa Gardens. Speaking to the Daily Mirror Life, a long-standing member of the Nokunu Team said that around 250 less fortunate families live along these waterways. "They are not aware of the importance of garbage segregation. Therefore the waterways are dumping grounds and they, in turn, block the canals during a heavy rain. This leads to flooding in the city. We need to discipline ourselves on this matter and spread awareness among others. The Sri Lanka Land Reclamation and Development Corporation (SLLRDC) and the Colombo Municipal Council (CMC) extended their support from day one and that is a big strength for us as a team."
Volunteers interested in joining the September phase are requested to bring in their own equipment including ekel brooms, mammoties, gloves and spades. This event will commence from the SLLRDC Office, Stratford Avenue on September 1, 2018 from 7.30am onwards.

China's small and medium-sized cities real estate inventory reduction will be completed in 2018, this transition marks the basic normalization of economic operation, and will have a significant impact on the large class of asset markets.
...In 2016 due to the impact of stimulus policies and demand overdraft, real estate inventory consumption is undoubtedly very fast, and unsustainable. But if the inventory reduction maintains the pace of 2015, then by the first half of 2018, the third- and fourth-tier level of "unsatisfactory" inventory will drop to near zero.
...A topic worthy of discussion is that many people believe that since 2016 the focus of the city's real estate market is re-bubble. If the price from the point of view, the situation is undoubtedly the case. However, from the start of the new changes to see the problem, these cities so far there is no rapid accumulation of inventory, which is very worthy of vigilance.
Summary In the late 1980s, after the United States in 2005, and China since 2010, a key feature of the real estate bubble was the rapid expansion of real estate investment and the subsequent accumulation of large inventories. In fact, it is precisely because of the rapid accumulation of inventory and difficult to deal with, in the housing bubble burst, only the formation of a serious bank bad debts, excess capacity and price adjustment.
From this point of view, since the beginning of 2016 in some second-tier cities, housing prices rose rapidly at the same time, the rapid expansion of supply and inventory accumulation is not obvious so far, rising house prices mainly reflects a serious imbalance between supply and demand.
With the start of demand regulation, this imbalance is expected to ease in the short term, but the long-term correction of this imbalance will undoubtedly require a more robust response from the supply level, or a fundamental reversal of the trend of population movements.

text: BUSINESS TMZ star of celebrity news sites 5:00 AM PDT 4/2/2007 by Alex Woodson , AP FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME Relative newcomer dominates in rapidly growing category NEW YORK -- In little more than a year after its launch, AOL's celebrity news site TMZ.com has become the most popular in the category -- according to Nielsen//NetRatings -- passing portals from more established institutions as the audience continues to grow.Launched in December 2005, TMZ had 7.9 million unique visitors in February, up 151% year-over-year. People.com was second with 4.3 million uniques, up 93% from the same period a year ago. E! Online, PerezHilton.com and Entertainment Weekly's portal rounded out the top five. Overall, the top 19 sites in the category saw 18.8 million visitors in February, up 40% from a year ago. "People have realized that the Internet brings something real to the party," TMZ GM Alan Citron said. "And that is real-time coverage. It has changed the rhythm of reporting, and because of that, the rhythm of readership has changed."Citron added that the site also is helped by the fact that it does not need to protect a broadcast or print brand. So when TMZ gets an exclusive -- such as Mel Gibson's anti-Semitic rant last year or Michael Richards' racist outburst at the Laugh Factory in November -- there are no questions about where it goes. Having access to AOL's huge subscriber base benefits TMZ's traffic as well. Citron is quick to credit the site's editorial staff, led by managing editor Harvey Levin. "Harvey Levin and his team are just tenacious reporters," Citron said. PerezHilton.com, a blog launched in 2005 by Mario Lavandeira, also has seen huge growth in the past year. In February, the site had 2.4 million unique visitors, compared with February 2006, when it fell below Nielsen's reporting cutoff of 330,000 uniques. All chart data provided by Nielsen//NetRatings Netview. Nielsen//NetRatings is owned by the Nielsen Co., parent company of The Hollywood Reporter.

It's a shortfilm drama about issues such as greed, relationships and what we are able to do in extreme situations. A story about two girls that coincide in the same elevator. Without even knowing each other, they will discover things that will completely change the course of their lives...
Limit situation from which values are learned through emotions, suggesting that the more you have, the more you want, and that greed does not lead anywhere.
This subtitle goes along with the name, since it deals with one of the 7 deadly sins.
To know the origin of the two characters it is necessary to fill in the story with, what in the future would be, a miniseries with the remaining 6 sins and show the worst side of each one.
This is Nadia
She's 21.
A girl who finds it hard to trust others because life has not treated her as she deserved. Likewise, despite the adversities, she faces the best she can without ever losing hope.
Don't be fooled by this smile... it has a lot to tell
This is Anais
She's 19 years old
She likes to go to concerts and hang out with friends.
She's extroverted and a very affectionate girl. She's always willing to help as needed.
Of course, don't catch her on a bad day, because she won't let you escape...
It is a project born from the need to provide a different point of view to society based on values that help eradicate the toxic behaviors that we have normalized over time. By showing these situations and what they can unleash, social and media impact can be created and coexistence can be improved by taking the project to festivals or even to high schools.
Aquí estamos, no para hacer historia,
sino las historias de los demás.
Of course, one of our biggest motivations is also to create art and culture.
This would be just the beginning of my proposals focused on psychology and education.

Thanks to all the people who have decided to collaborate, this project is seeing the light and consists of semi-professional production material.
The main problem (and at the same time it is a challenge) is that almost the entire storyline takes place in an elevator.
We have decided to make the verkami campaign since it is a small project, but squeezing and very complex to perform in conditions.
Then I would need the money basically for the scenography (the elevator) and the production expenses: diets, transportation, material profitability...
By making a contribution and sharing the campaign on social media you will help to make a dream come true!
Your contribution will only be collected if the project achieves the financing objective!

Keurig's K45 and K55 are both low-end, entry-level Keurig coffee makers. Both are affordable and intended for nothing more complicated than to brew coffee quickly. Both are compatible with every K-cup pod on the market, which gives users of both access to dozens of different brands and hundreds of flavors. Both also come with reputations that they stop working for no apparent reason, however. Because it's a little lower-priced and easier to maintain, we give our nod to the K55.
Both machines brew coffee quickly. Both offer a wide variety of coffee flavors and are simple to operate. Users love both for all these reasons. Both machines are mostly just stripped of pricey bells and whistles. So, on performance, it's a wash.
The K55 retails at a lower price than the K45. It's not a lot more complicated than that.
Both are built primarily of plastic, and both have reputations for inexplicably not working. However, the K45 is a little bit more of a headache to clean and maintain, so we have to give the nod to the K55 here.
Both have roughly the same design. Both are compatible with every K-cup pod, and both have removable 48-ounce water reservoirs. The K45 is harder to clean and requires more work to maintain. Again, based on that, the nod goes to the K55.
The K45 brews coffee, brews it quickly, and brews it with push-button simplicity. It's intended to be a first-thing-in-the-morning brewing system in the home. It doesn't come with a lot of bells and whistles and requires extra work to maintain optimum effectiveness.
All the Keurig does is brew coffee. It's an uncomplicated machine that will even turn itself off, so the hardest thinking required is choosing which of the many hundreds of flavors to brew. But it does come with lingering issues of durability.
Unless you go to the expense of buying two models of the same machine, a strict side-by-side comparison is difficult. Instead, you have to get a sense of how people have related to the individual models they purchased. Rather than checking the reviews of just one model, you have to go through the reviews of two. You want a comprehensive look at people's experiences with both coffee makers, but you don't want to spend hours reading reviews, many of which are written by people who are lucky if they can find their way out of a paper sack. We went ahead and read those reviews for you, and have summarized their findings to save you valuable time.
As barebones, push-button coffee makers, users really liked both models. We'll get into the gripes here shortly, but they shouldn't be interpreted to mean that one or both of these machines are bad. Users of both really liked that they were uncomplicated, brewed quickly, and offered a wide variety of flavors from a wide variety of roasters. Both models are pretty affordable as Keurigs go. People also liked that both had a removable 48-ounce reservoir that is compatible with a filter to improve water quality.
That speed and simplicity comes with a price, however, and that is noise. They are fast, they are simple, and they are both noisy.
Both models also come with lingering questions about durability. The primary complaint that users had about both was that they just simply stopped working. Sometimes it was after a couple of years. Some lasted a few months. Some brewed three cups and brewed not one more. The percentage of users who reported this is still pretty small — around 10 percent for both — but it's more than what you'd expect from other product lines. They're both made of plastic, which says something.
For the K45, this was coupled with complaints that it is difficult to clean and maintain. Some users felt the reliability issues were at least in part related to the fact that they need constant attention. The K55, on the other hand, is much simpler to clean and maintain, judging on what users have to say about it.
The general consensus opinion is that both coffee makers are simple, fast, and brew good coffee. They are versatile enough to offer hundreds of different flavors of coffee, tea, and hot chocolate. Both are entry-level Keurigs that put whatever size cup of coffee you want into your hands in less than a minute.
We picked the K55 over the K45 for pretty basic reasons. Both models were designed pretty similarly, and both delivered good coffee at the press of a button. Both have reputations for being unreliable, but the K55 is a little easier to keep running. It's also a little lower-priced, so you get a bit more for a bit less. It's as uncomplicated as operating one of these machines in the morning. If you just want a cup of coffee first thing in the morning to get you going, both of these machines would serve you well. That is, as long as you don't get one of the lemons.
