Fertility Hypnotherapy Newcastle
When Conception is a Journey
A fertility journey can be a consuming one both emotionally and physically. Numerous medical investigations may or may not always provide answers, and either way this has the potential to create further worry and stress. And for those who choose IVF, this can be an emotional journey in and of itself.
People often describe their journey to conceive as an obsession. Of course it is - and why wouldn't it be? It is a journey which is underpinned by a deep biological yearning to be a parent – no more needs to be said.
Hypnotherapy is a flexible therapy which has full potential to support your fertility in a variety of ways.
How can Fertility Hypnotherapy Newcastle Support my Fertility Journey?
Fertility Hypnotherapy to Reduce Stress & Anxiety
I've already discussed the huge potential for stress and anxiety when conception is taking longer than expected or medical intervention is involved. The attachment to the outcome of becoming a parent is enormous, and so it is normal to feel such a response, however, finding ways to manage this stress can be hugely beneficial.
Studies have shown that stress can actually have a detrimental effect on a couples chances of conception. The exact reasons why stress and anxiety affect fertility so much are still unclear – it could be an evolutionary response, stress could affect the balance of hormones in the body or a number of cumulative effects as a result of stress within the body.
Whatever the cause, it is important that stress and anxiety levels are managed and decreased to improve your chances of achieving pregnancy and fertility hypnotherapy support can help you to achieve this at a deeper unconscious level.
Fertility Hypnotherapy to Change Behaviours which Reduce the Chances of Conception.
Some behaviours and lifestyle choices can greatly affect chances of conception. Some examples include food choices/diet, tobacco use, alcohol or even the regularity (or irregularity) of sex for whatever reason.
Now, I say lifestyle choices, but if a person is continuing with a behaviour which they consciously know is impeding their ability achieve something they desire with their entire being - to have a baby - then that behaviour isn't really a choice after all is it.
The chances are that this behaviour is rooted in something deeper and needs some unconscious processing in order to be unravelled, dissolved and replaced with new and more useful behaviours. Fertility hypnotherapy support is a useful tool for rewiring behaviours that we haven't been able to change with conscious effort alone, and engaging new and useful behaviours to support you on your fertility journey.
...it is important that stress and anxiety levels are managed and decreased to improve your chances of achieving pregnancy...
Fertility Hypnotherapy to Develop Mind/Body Communication
Well, I say the mind/body relationship, but actuality it is all part of the same system. Our unconscious processes mean that our heart beats, our temperature is maintained and our breathing regulates itself without a single conscious thought from you.
It is this same unconscious system which regulates our fertility cycles, balances our hormones and prepares our bodies for potential conception.
During hypnotherapy, it is possible to tap into these unconscious processes, to have a gentle word with our unconscious. To thank it for everything it has done so far and, at the same time, make suggestions for new and more useful behaviours it can adopt. In terms of fertility for example, this can relate to hormonal balance in the body, the healthy thickening of the lining of the uterus in readiness for successful implantation or the regulation of fertility cycles.
In terms of hypnotherapy, this concept is nothing new. Hypnosis has been proven to reduce the sensation of pain, ease muscular spasms, strengthen immunity, reduce histamine reactions and is also used to increase essential hormones for birthing mothers. These are all very physical things and the premise of these same techniques can be harnessed to develop the best environment possible for you in which pregnancy can occur.
Fertility Hypnotherapy to Eliminate Fears & Phobias
In the same way that stress and anxiety can be major contributing factors when it comes to fertility, fears can also have the same effect. One specific fear is 'tokophobia' –the fear of pregnancy and, specifically, birth. Of course any fears, whether to do with pregnancy, birth or parenthood... these reside in our unconscious and have the potential to reduce chances of conception.
You see, your unconscious mind, and the physical processes it takes care of, are constantly working towards what it thinks is best for you. So imagine this - A woman may feel deeply that a part of her wants to have a baby. At the same time, another part of her is holding onto a deep fear which could become a reality if a pregnancy was achieved. However, once a fear or phobia has been resolved, there is no longer conflict, therefore clearing the emotional field for greater fertility success.
What to Expect - Fertility Hypnotherapy Newcastle Sessions
I use the term Hypnotherapy quite broadly when I explain the way I work, and it is accurate to say that the majority of any change work I facilitate uses hypnosis as a key technique. I feel it is also important to have the flexibility of different techniques in order to create the most flexibility for you to make powerful and lasting changes. The techniques I use are:
- Clinical Hypnotherapy
- Neuro Linguistic Programming(NLP)
- Eye Movement Integration(EMI)
- Emotional Freedom Technique(EFT)
A single treatment lasts approximately 90 minutes and costs £65, a discount on this can be negotiated with bookings of 3 or more sessions.
I run a clinic from 'Jesmond Natural Health & Fertility' every Friday, however, if you require a different appointment time, I also see clients from my base which borders Northumberland, Tyne and Wear & County Durham.
It's important that you feel I'm the right person to help support you though your fertility journey and that you have the chance to ask me any questions, talk over your specific needs and get some guidance on the right approach for you. A short 15 minute initial telephone conversation is usually more than enough and, of course, there is no obligation to book – after all, you are not only investing in yourself, but in your future it's important that you get this right.
Fertility Hypnotherapy Newcastle Support is available in Tyne & Wear, Northumberland & County Durham including Newcastle, Durham, Gateshead, Hexham, Morpeth and the surrounding areas.

Here is Beyonce topless in another magazine cover, as her face will appear in black and white on the May edition of Out Magazine. In the new edition of Out magazine, which is about what it sounds like it's about, Beyonce says that women should own their own sexuality. I don't even know what this means, but I like it. Especially if that cliche comes with Beyonce holding her own stellar boobtastic in a photoshoot for the magazine where you can imagine Beyonce as a blonde. I must admit I've never thought of Beyonce as a blonde, then again, I'm rarely looking at her hair. As a rule, whatever Beyonce supports that involves her taking off her top, I support. Enjoy the view!
Category: Beyonce Knowles
Beyonce Booty For Her New Partition Video
I heard that they're calling the new Beyonce music video 'explicit' on YouTube. I don't know if I'd go that far, especially within the realm of current day pop music videos. They're racier than most adult films. But I will say that Beyonce gives it her PG-13 all in this booty shaking and body preening costume fest. I think there's music too, though I admit I wasn't really paying attention. Of all the current music stars who are showing off their female forms to push record sales, if they still sell records, I have to say, Beyonce is near the top of my list. A real woman's body bumping and grinding and exhibiting her deeply felt artistic passions. If she was singing Hells Bells this would be something I would buy. Enjoy the view!
Beyonce Booty Show On 56th Annual Grammy Awards
Music's newest MILF Beyonce opened the show with one hell of a booty-shaking performance at the Grammy Awards. Jay Z & wife Beyonce got down and dirty as they performed 'Drunk in Love'. Beyonce didn't hold back on stage, but as soon as she was off the clock, she had a big blanket waiting to cover up that billion-dollar booty! I did not get the video, because if you ask me, the pictures are actually even better. See, now you don't have to keep pausing and squinting through all that dry ice. Also, you don't have to mute the pictures. You're welcome. Enjoy the view!
Beyonce Booty Makes Hot Comeback
I haven't done a Beyonce Android Wallpaper post for months, but here she is at the release party for her new self titled "Visual Album" in a super hot futuristic outfit. Damn, that is one sweet backside pic. If she keeps dressing like this, I might actually start listening to her music. Anyway, hopefully there will be more photos like this come. Enjoy the view!
Beyonce See Through Dress
Here is Beyonce looking just damn spectacular and busting out some awesome cleavage in some sexy see through dress at the premiere of something called Beyonce: Life Is But A Dream in New York. Wow. I don't know about you guys, but Beyonce nude has impressed the hell out of me lately. Beyonce's GQ photoshoot and her Super Bowl half-time show were both pretty damn hot, and it looks like there's no stopping her new found hotness. Keep good work.
Beyonce GQ Hot Photoshoot
Wow. Wow times a thousand! Here is Beyonce posing for the latest GQ magazine and looking just damn fucking hot and I don't remember I've seen her like that before, so if you ask me, this has to be her sexiest photoshoot ever. In some way I like it when the individual celebs have kids because they almost always come back like they have something to prove and Beyonce nude has proven to be a serious contender for the hottest celebrity MILF… Anyway, I don't really get the point of the football helmet or poses, but I'd sure love to play a little two-hand touch with Beyonce Knowles. Enjoy.
Beyonce Pregnant And Busty
I've never found pregnant chicks very sexy, but since some of my favorite celebrity babes like Hilary Duff got all knocked up, I began to think that there are some pregnancy that could be a good for all of us. Here is the proof, and that are the pictures of Beyonce pregnant walking around in some little low cut dress that pressed and pushed her burgeoning boobtastic like a Hamilton Beach milkshake maker. You've probably heard about the bullshit scandal about Beyonce faking her pregnancy, but I'm glad to see that these claims are false, because I love those sweet big pregnant breasts. It seems that Jay-Z is going to have a fun few months. Lucky bastard.
Beyonce Flashes A Little Sideboob
I did not have any pictures of Beyonce long time on the site, it appears that she hides herself for some time. But finally I have something new from her and I am pretty excited. You think these pictures are nothing special, until you see some little peek of Beyonce sideboob. It's nice to see that she has decided to shows off more than just a smile and stupid sunglasses in her sexy one piece. No matter how much I am happy with this, as I am always happy to see that the celebrity tits are naughty, I have to say that I wouldn't have expected this kind of thing from Beyonce, she's normally so careful, but I am glad that this can happen to everyone. Enjoy

Before Black History month passes you by, spend some time with a couple of PBS shows coming up: Through a Glass Darkly (9 p.m. Monday, Feb. 18) that showcases the work — and importance — of black photographers and American Denial (9 p.m., Monday, Feb. 23) that recalls the work of Swedish sociologist Gunnar Myrdal who published a study of race relations in the United States in 1944.
Both programs are part of the Independent Lens series on PBS and both are fascinating studies of American history.
Glassexplores the Work of African-American photographers while making the point that the U.S. scene didn't showcase people of color for so many years except in a demeaning manner. By exploring the African-American family album we find some of the pictures we missed: black families celebrating birthdays, holidays and special events.
The program makes you realize that through these photographs we actually see black individuals as they are — looking at the camera, that is, at you. That's something that white society wasn't always comfortable with.
The black presence in our society — like other minorities — has often been one of invisibility as Ralph Ellison noted in his book. But these photographs and the photographers, themselves, make that history come alive in this program.
American Denial is particularly timely in light of the tragic rash of police shootings that have been in the news. The fact is that what the Carnegie Corporation worried about in the 1940s is still a concern. Myrdal's research into a divided culture — the world of Jim Crow segregation –is compared with an integrated world of today where urban communities and schools are predominantly black while suburbs are mostly white.
The easiest thing is to deny that America has a race problem but American Denial offers compelling reasons to think otherwise. A number of historians, psychologists and sociologist weigh in including Mahzarin Banaji and Vincent Brown of Harvard University and political theorist Danielle Allen.

Not sure what it is called. I just call it my egg muffin thingie, ha! I got it in the microwave section at Walmart. Pretty cheap. I have two uses for it on my video below. A 2 min. 30 sec. breakfast casserole, and a 1 min. 40 sec. english muffin. I'm thinking a person could get creative with it and find some other ways to use it also. I'm all for simple you know? Fast and simple. This is what I need in my life! And who doesn't?
The english muffin I make in it comes from Jennifer Eloff's "One Minute Bread, the Next Minute Toast". I use a variation of her recipe on here that works for me. I've posted it before here. So I won't post the recipe again. Only I used 2 tsp. of coconut oil in that one and here I only use one. I like it with one tsp. better. One could make a simple omelet with this gadget also and a toasted english muffin and make it into an egg sandwich as well.
Breakfast Casserole:
1/4 cup (approximately) of low carb stuffing (made from almond bread)
1/4 cup half and half
1 large egg
dash dry mustard
salt and pepper to taste
1 sausage link (or bacon if you prefer)
shredded cheese (enough to cover)
Put the stuffing in the bottom of the microwave muffin container
Mix half and half, egg, dry mustard, and salt and pepper well and pour over the stuffing.
Top with cut up sausage or crumbled bacon.
Top that with shredded cheese and microwave for 2 min. 30 sec. approximately, or until it is done in the center.
Slide out onto a plate and enjoy!
Nutrition info will depend on your stuffing mix. I have not figured out the carb count yet, sorry. If you use the almond bread for stuffing though, it is very low!

The CIA records that were recently released, which show that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed was waterboarded 183 times in one month underscore the ineffectiveness of torture as an interrogation method.
If it takes 183 tries, it ain't working. And it's laziness bordering on sadism.
Buffalo Geek is a veteran and comes at this issue from that perspective. Money quote:
In times [of] war, we as Americans hold the moral high ground, such as it is in war. Lowering ourselves to the level of our enemy breeds contempt, inflames opposition, and reduces our ability to rally the world around a flag of righteousness. Torturing those whom we have detained lowers us to the level of the enemy. Once we cede the moral high ground in battle, we begin down a slippery slope of moral ambiguity that clouds our purpose and allows our enemy to define our standards for us.
We no longer hold that moral high ground and our unwillingness to confront the actions of the previous administration is an affront to those who have honorably served this great nation. It is a betrayal of this country's citizens who entrusted us to fight in their name and serve with integrity.
Think of how we would react if it was discovered that an American soldier was waterboarded 183 times in one month. Would we snicker and make snarky comments about that treatment?
The first commenter who says something like, "oh, al Qaeda would have served people crumpets and tea" wins the "I'm am ignorant moron" prize.
We are a civilized nation, and a strong, stable democracy. If you wish for our military or intelligence services to behave similarly to the terrorists, then you have no respect for law or civilized behavior.

2017 Flower Trends by Flower Monkey
By FlowerMonkey, Feb 1 2017 01:57PM
Congratulations if you are looking forward to a wedding in 2017. Here are our predictions for the year ahead.
The style of your wedding flowers will very much depend on the style of your wedding, but we think the trends for 2017 will continue along the natural. organic wedding themes we saw in 2016. Pastel colours and neutral colour palettes will continue to be popular in 2017. However, bold statements and vibrant colours will also have their place.
Woodland weddings, English country garden, and boho weddings will be popular for the year ahead, but we think 2017 will be all about adding the personal touch to your wedding by adding an injection of your personality.
We're certain that many brides will opt for seasonal flowers and we will see gorgeous bouquets and floral arrangements changing throughout the seasons. A classic late Spring bouquet could include peonies, sweetpeas, delphinium and lavender, think English Country Garden. A vibrant Summer bouquet could include sunflowers, dahlias, cosmos and roses, adding colour and scents to complement long, lazy days in the sun. For Autumn bouquets, consider thistles, scabiosas, romanatic ranunculas and chocolate cosmos. Winter weddings could include berries, amaranthus, anemone, and eucalyptus. Flowers that are available all year round to enhance your bouquet include Queen's Lace also known as ammi, succulents, astilbe and lisianthus.
For personal touches, try tying the stems with a ribbon, fabric or lace and even adding a brooch, or small piece of vintage jewellery. Flowers will also be used in different ways this year, turning signs made from wooden palettes into eye-catching decorations, again giving your wedding that personal touch.
Each bride wants to create a unique, special event and a day to remember. Unusual centrepieces are a great way to achieve this. Pretty planted pots and wooden troughs are perfect for the Spring. Light Summer evenings can be enhanced with jam jars filled with fresh cut flowers. For Autumnal barn weddings, imagine bark covered vases, moss and candles. Add twinkling fairy lights for a touch of magic to your winter flowers. Flowers can also be used to make a real impact from large blossom trees for the wow factor to beautiful floral arches framing an entrance.
Natural bouquets were popular in 2016 and messy chic bouquets are set to be on trend for the year ahead. Think wild flowers with lots of greenery, different textures and nothing too formal. For those looking to achieve a natural look lush foliage helps to bring the great outdoors to any floral arrangement. Greenary in bouquets will continue to be popular in 2017 from flowy grasses, to textured foliage.
Whether for yourself, your bridesmaids, flower girl or even a pet who's set to make a guest appearance, floral crowns/garlands will also be big this year. We LOVE this trend and are looking forward to creating some gorgeous floral crowns this year.
Whatever style you chose for your 2017 wedding, we'd love to help and we have buckets of ideas and enthusiasm, so please get in touch. http://flowermonkey.co.uk/get-in-touch

A STUDENT was amazed to awake to find policemen in her bedroom.
She was even more taken aback when they pointed out a burglar trying to hide under her bed, a court was told.
"She had been asleep and quite oblivious to the intruder's presence in her bedroom prior to the police arriving. He was immediately arrested and taken to a police station where he gave a false name," said prosecuting counsel Kevin Slack, at Liverpool crown court.
Ian Patterson, who gave the name of John Patterson, was released on bail the next day by magistrates.
He re-appeared at court, still using the false name the next month and was further bailed. His solicitors then discovered the deception and told the police.
The police had quickly been on the scene of the burglary at Rachel Grimshaw's flat in Pilgrim Street in Liverpool city centre because a neighbour, Michael Stewart, had spotted Patterson behaving suspiciously.
Judge Denis Clark jailed Patterson, 30, of Shaw Street, Liverpool, for two and a half years. He had pleaded guilty to burglary and perverting the course of justice and also admitted stealing two bottles of gin from a supermarket and handling a laptop computer and disc player.
"It was a terrifying experience for a young girl to wake up and be confronted by a burglar," he said.

Potty Training Disorders
Most children do eventually become potty-trained, although you might despair of your child ever getting to that point. Physical or emotional issues can arise during potty-training that complicate the process. If you're struggling with potty-training your child, knowing some of the problems you might face can help you figure out how to treat or avoid them 2.
Toilet Phobias
Toilets can be scary objects for little ones. They're loud and they make parts of people -- yes, urine and stool are a part of your child, in his eyes -- disappear, never to be seen again. A bad experience on the toilet, such as pain from a hard or large stool, parental scolding or punishment threats, can also set up a toilet phobia. A power struggle with parents can also cause point-blank refusal to try to use the toilet. Take steps to gradually reduce fear of using the toilet. For example, first have him empty his diaper into the potty. Then have him produce a bowel movement in the bathroom with his diaper on. Progress to having a bowel movement with a "magic diaper," which has a hole cut in it and lastly, to having bowel movements on the potty. Don't flush until he leaves the room.
Holding Stools
Some kids attempt to avoid the whole potty training scene simply by refusing to go at all. Holding back stools makes them more difficult to pass, which creates a vicious cycle of stool holding, pain when defecating and more stool holding. Laxatives can help break the cycle of stool holding, which, in its most extreme form, can lead to an intestinal blockage or manual removal of the stool, which is every bit as unpleasant as it sounds. Stools softeners alone often don't work for stool holder, pediatrician Barton D. Schmitt warns in the 2004 issue of "Contemporary Pediatrics." Your child might need a daily laxative to trigger the urge to defecate, Schmitt suggests. Talk to your child's pediatrician before using any type of over-the-counter laxative for your child.
Daytime Dribbling or Incontinence
Some children have difficulty completely emptying their bladder, which results in leakage during the day. Problems with the muscles of the bladder or simply impatience when urinating can cause incomplete emptying and daytime dribbling. Urinary tract infections can also cause urinary incontinence or dribbling. Urinary tract infections occur more frequently in little girls, because bacterial contamination from stool is more common due to the proximity of the rectum and urethra. Most kids don't wipe well until they're nearly 4 years old, or around 45 months of age, psychologist Gwen Dewar explains on her website, Parenting Science.
Overnight bladder control develops more slowly than daytime control, for many children; many children don't achieve nighttime control for six to 12 months after they master potty training during the day, according to Dewar. A smaller-than-normal bladder, poor muscle control, urinary tract infection or the inability to recognize signs that the bladder needs emptying can all contribute to bed-wetting. The American Academy of Pediatrics doesn't consider bed-wetting abnormal until your child reaches the age of 5.

When being serviced by a smaller airport, look into all the different airlines that have flights. Many smaller airports will have charter airlines; they may not show up when searching for rates, and they may be able to offer better deals than the big companies.
If the venue you want to go to offers online ticketing, take advantage of this service and print your tickets off at home. The fee is worth the time you save skipping the lines. If the amusement park has a timed entry system, you can enjoy that benefit from buying tickets online.
Make sure you are organized well. There are better ways to spend your time than searching the house for travel accessories. A plastic bin can hold all of the stuff that you need. A container for under the bed storage is great for keeping your items out of the way, yet handy when it is time to prepare for your next journey.
You don't save much space using travel size toiletries and when you run out, the local stores often charge more for products that you need to replace. Try to save space in other ways, like packing more efficiently or eliminating unnecessary items. Utilizing some of these methods can leave you with quite a bit more space in your bag.
Try joining some forums and social networks that are focused on travel. Finding a community of fellow travelers to share experiences and socialize with is one of the best ways to prepare for a trip. You'll find out about attractions you might not otherwise have known about.
As discussed earlier, many people feel compelled to do without a yearly vacation in light of the unfavorable economy. Follow the guidance outlined in this, in order to find ways to travel without breaking the bank.

Marz's thoughts: You don't even have to be a fan of baseball…you can be a total football fan but you can not argue that this weekend is absolutely incredible for baseball. Not one team in the NL knows where they are going to finish, don't know if they will even be in the playoffs, if they are going to be at home or on the road. I believe there is going to be at least one playoff game on Monday, possibly two. I am just totally looking forward to this weekend and can't wait to get in on Monday to talk about it.
P.S. – My picks are the Phillies in the East, Cubs in the Central, Arizona in the West and San Diego is the Wild Card
Cuch's thoughts: The only good news the Mets have right now is that Moises Alou is in the midst of a 30 game hitting streak. When healthy he is a legit offensive power bat. Someone needs to step up and take over for this team this weekend but they face the Marlins coming off a sweep at home versus the Cubs. Florida is playing for pride and much like KC did to Detroit last year, the Marlins end the Mets run in the division this year – the only difference is the Mets are out all together.
P.S. – My picks are Philly in the East, Chicago in the Central, Colorado in the West and Mets, Padres and D-Backs will all be apart of a 3 team tie for the Wild Card.
Mike in Cherry Hill, NJ thoughts:
Here's a scenario for Monday night when there's a "play-in" game at Citizens Bank Park:
Bottom of the 9th, Phils are down a run 6-5, bases loaded, 2 out, Billy Wagner trying to nail down the NL east title. And who is coming to the plate???? You got it:
James Calvin "Jimmy" Rollins, the player that has now displaced Chipper Jones as the number one target for all Met fans. The count runs full, all the runners are off with the pitch and here's the pitch… there's a line drive past the diving Jose Reyes and out into the left field, the tying run scores, here comes the winning run, Michael Bourn,flying around 3rd, Moises Alou comes up throwing, here's the play at the plate and Bourn slides in SAFELY just under the tag of Paul Loduca. The towels are waving and flying all over place, the Phils clinch the the title and the members of the Baseball Writers Association come out and personally hand Rollins the MVP. Now, that's POETIC JUSTICE.
Extra Innings: 09/27/07
Marz's thoughts: You know, I am really tired of Vinny getting everything he wants on the show. Whatever I ask for – NOTHING. If he wants it, Chris is at his beckon call. This is bad for the business and I am coming up with something "MUCH funnier" tomorrow and then we can judge!
P.S. – Chris the Producer stinks! BOOO! – Cuch and Marz produce everything!
Cuch's thoughts: What a class act Jamie Moyer was in responding to Johns umpire question. I think the exact same way. The umpires mess up occassionally but when you look at just how many bang bang plays there are…and then you watch the replay – nearly everytime, they get the call right. I am more impressed that they do it in real time.
P.S. – Not NL spots will be clinched tonight either meaning that ALL 4 spots are still up for grabs when we do the show tomorrow and there will be only 3 games left! AMAZING
Extra Innings: 09/26/07
Marz's thoughts: It is the final week and it is going to go to Sunday. Every team in the NL left alive has a shot at the playoffs. That is why fans should just be interested in watching and cheering for their team. Do not think "GLASS HALF EMPTY". Enjoy the ride!
P.S. – Thank God Chris is back tomorrow!
Cuch's thoughts: Thanks to Fredi Gonzalez for joining us. The Marlins had a tough year based on injuries and the ineffectiveness at times for Dontrelle Willis however, they have a bright future. If they can keep their infield intact, they have one of the most lethal. The man with the highest potential is Hanley Ramirez. He would be an MVP candidate if they were more in the headlines and fighting for a postseason spot. Miguel Cabrera is still on the upswing and Dan Uggla although he strikesout a bunch is legit. The bullpen is developing and when the starters are healthy (Josh Johnson in particular) the Marlins are looking up.
P.S. – You ever start rooting against a team not because of the team but because of one person who roots for them that won't shut up? Just wondering!
Extra Innings: 09/25/07
Marz's thoughts: WOW – Am I looking forward to this week…To steal a line from Major League Baseball…"I live for this" – I can't wait until 7:00 tonight and 10 eastern time to watch as every NL team battles for 4 spots! Six games left and not one of them has been settled! That is incredible.
P.S. – There is NO DOUBT that I am the sexiest fan alive! EJ STINKS!
Cuch's thoughts: Though Jason Lane is a good addition, the San Diego Padres take a major hit in their postseason hopes. Mike Cameron gets hurt on the field so that is understandable but for Milton Bradley to tear his ACL while arguing with an umpire is so bizarre. The Padres have arguably the best pitching of the potential postseason teams but the offense needs all the help it can get. San Diego went from my NL favorite had they gotten in to on thin ice to even make it.
P.S. – Milwaukee remains on thin ice for the pool – they need another win and a Cubs loss! Anything else and we begin to evaluate tomorrow. I hope they stick around to make the Padres – Brewers matchup fun this weekend.
Extra Innings: 09/24/07
Marz's thoughts: Wow – How about these Colorado Rockies. The H-Bombs got the job done. Everytime you count this team out and think they have no shot at the playoffs….THEY PULL US BACK IN! I do not think many people are taking this team serious yet, but they have great players, a very good manager and are playing right now like a playoff team. If they were to make the postseason, the team that has to face the Rockies better not take them lightly.
P.S. – Go Team Sweden!…uh…uh, I mean EAGLES
Cuch's thoughts: Those were the ugliest unis ever that the Eagles wore yesterday. Anyways, Philly has better things to talk about nowadays with the Phillies. Stop the football talk there…the Phils are playing great baseball and have charged back into the race. They sit just a half game back of the Wild Card and you would assume if they can take care of their job, San Diego is playing 4 against the Padres to close out the year and that will be much tougher for them.
P.S. – Tomorrow – we are going to learn who the sexiest fan alive is…stay tuned!
Extra Innings: 09/21/07
Marz's thoughts: For Milwaukee to win the division, they need a healthy Ben Sheets. They said there is a 50/50 chance that he may go his next start. The Brewers without Ben Sheets are not the same team. When you know your ace is going to throw, it gives your team so much more confidence. Hopefully, he is 100% healthy because I want to see both teams…the Cubs and the Brewers battle with their best.
P.S. – Happy 18th Birthday to my baby Dominique!
Cuch's thoughts: Sammy Sosa said if he returns for another season that the Rangers will be his first choice. It will be more like whomever wants him will be his first choice…however he has shown that he can have value. This race down the stretch is incredible…there is no question that the playoffs have already begun! The Rockies need all three of these games and their toughest one will be tonight. If the Rockies can break through to Peavy in San Diego in game 1, then i like their chances on Saturday and Sunday.
P.S. – Happy Birthday to John's daughter as well…Do you remember? The 21st night of September!
Extra Innings: 09/20/07
Marz's thoughts: Eric Gagne was the jewel at the trading deadline. He was going to be the difference maker for the Red Sox so that they can win the World Series this year. The Yankees on the other hand went with their young studs. Clay Buchholz throws a no-hitter and the Red Sox put him in the bullpen. These are two mistakes that have hurt the Red Sox and helped the Yankees.
P.S. – At first I thought I had the largest fall from grace, but then i realized i was never really all that high! HAHA
Cuch's thoughts: Seth Everett brought up a great point on the show today. How ridiculous is the memorabilia collecting business nowadays? Idiots are buying these "apparently high valued" baseballs and what not and doing it solely for promotion. What has this business become? The best collectibles are the personal ones…the one with you and someone in a picture or something that has more meaning!
P.S. – Rockies FANS are on alert…win today and big three game series this weekend with the Padres – MUST WINS!
Extra Innings: 09/19/07
Marz's thoughts: Brendan Ryan swings at a 3-0 pitch in the 1st inning against Cole Hamels. Hamels is coming back from injury and you want to make him throw pitches. It is a bad mistake from a young player. Tony LaRussa should have reprimanded him and let him know never to do it again. Instead, he takes him out of the game and tries to make an example out of him. I can tell from the video that the kid missed a sign. What would have happened if it were Albert Pujols or Jim Edmonds? Would LaRussa's reaction have been the same?
P.S. – Arrgghh…With it be here National Talk Like a Pirate Day, here hopes that the Pirates of Pittsburgh walk off with the booty and send the Padres off ye sea!
Cuch's thoughts: Yes, the New York Mets are in trouble but why? Is it because no one is stepping up for them in the clubhouse? Is it because of Willie Randolph? Is it because the Nationals are on fire? How about the Mets just aren't as good as we all think? They are what they are…a team that is leading the Phillies in the east by a game and half. They do not have the horses on the staff and the bullpen is very shaky. One would think in the poor NL that the Mets will still make the playoffs, but limping in?
P.S. – Colorado and LA – Don't lose today or tomorrow ye be walking the plank! The winner gets one extra day!
Extra Innings: 09/18/07
Marz's thoughts: Well, my Eagles **** and I took my lumps today like a man. It is now baseball 24-7. I have given up on the Eagles. How could you not be excited about the pennant races this year and the wildcard?
P.S. – Can't wait until this rash goes away – I am NOT using that baseball urn now!
Cuch's thoughts: Based on the schedules the rest of the way…Philly has the edge over the Mets…Chicago has the edge over Milwaukee and San Diego is slightly better than Milwaukee. That series at the end of the year where the Padres visit the Brewers for 4 can be the big series of the YEAR!
P.S. – The Dodgers visit the Rockies for 3 this week, the team who losses the series will be entered into the Leading Off elimination pool
Extra Innings: 09/17/07
Marz's thoughts: This past weekend, there were some big series we had to look forward to. Coming into this week, there is really only one major series and that is Detroit in Cleveland. Teams like the Yankees, Phillies and Mets need to go out and keep pace and play with the same intensity as they did this weekend. Detroit is on a roll and playing like the team that made it to the World Series last year. I look for them to sweep Cleveland at Jacobs Field.
P.S. – I am gonna gather all of my cards and sell them at $0.15 cents apiece. Now I can buy new socks for the show!
Cuch's thoughts: It is about time the Cardinals fell off. I was stupified that they won it all last year and remain that way today. Their pitching staff was made worse this year than in 06 and they are now 7 games below .500 and 7 games out of the NL Central lead and that is all in the worst division in baseball if you go by overall record. This gives Milwaukee or Chicago a chance to be this years version of St. Louis and there are many more likable guys on those teams that fans will be able to pull for!
P.S. – Thanks for the email from Jimmy – now we know all about "Kerry Team" in Ireland and I found out they won on Sunday and now have 35 championships. I just don't know where that measures up with the Yankees. That is my next problem

An article in the Sunday Times caught my eye, written by their education correspondent, Sian Griffiths, under the headline, 'Stressed heads exclude children as young as three.' Sian subsequently tweeted, "I found this an upsetting story to write."
In short, more children under the age of seven are being excluded according to figures quoted from the Office for National Statistics this month, indicating a rise in the number of exclusions involving primary-aged children. In her article, Sian also mentions a documentary that will be screened on Channel 4 on Tuesday 25th July – Excluded at Seven.
This doesn't surprise me, but only further saddens me that children are excluded from school. Exclusion only adds to their trauma/anxiety and doesn't help to give them the tools to self-regulate their behaviour and emotions. Imagine what it must feel like for these children's self-esteem and self-worth to be excluded at such a young age?
Children who show behaviour that may be a cause for concern are doing so to communicate that something is not right. We need educators who are turned on and tuned in to children's well-being, welfare and emotions. If an educator's first default is to exclude, shame and punish children, what hope is there for them in their later years as children, young people and adults? This only contributes to a self-fulfilling prophecy.
On another note, we must also discuss the pressure on schools regarding targets, assessments and standards, which I believe has added to the level of exclusions and the mentality of only wanting 'perfect' children, who will fit in and conform. There may also be a possible impact on PISA on children's learning and development, in the near future. Some environments are not suitable for children's unique learning and development and we are still seeing a 'too much too soon' approach in some schools (although there are also some excellent examples of a child-centred approach), which does not mirror children's natural development and they are expected to do too much in terms of learning and development before they are ready to do so. I have always said there is a reason why babies are not born walking! Indeed, if children are hurried and forced to reach their developmental outcomes this can have a negative impact on their behaviour. We need to keep on sharing with schools, and to reflect on child development and neuroscience.
Two years ago, I received a speculative email from a parent:
"Dear Laura, I came across your website whilst looking for information on behavioural specialists or groups. I have a four-year-old boy who just started school, but is finding it difficult, he's anxious and responds by screaming and shouting, running around the classroom and he hit a TA. I was very distraught and if he continues he will be excluded at the age of four! I was wondering if you could help or at least point me in the right direction."
I spoke to this parent, who was very emotional, and I recommended organisations that could help and also that she should speak to the school. Subsequently, due to pressure from the school, the parent removed her son before he was excluded. The school in question was an Ofsted outstanding as well as a faith school. My reflection on this was that it shows the pressure on schools to weed out children who do not fit into their idea of perfect and I wondered whether such actions went against the Christian ethos of a faith school. I know too, that parents feel concerned and are frustrated at not knowing who to go to for impartial and practical help.
I also reflected on my own son, who at 21 was finally diagnosed on the autistic spectrum. When he was in his Early Years/primary school his behaviour was a cause for concern and mirrored that of ADHD. However, as an expert in autism recently mentioned to me, he was more than likely reacting to the environment and his behaviour was that of "I can't cope" and "this is a sensory overload". I remember, at four, my son missing out on a number of break times because of his behaviour, which is one of the worst things one can do for any child, much less a child with SEND.
It made me think about four-year-olds and issues with transitions and what might be going on. I remember the SENCO asking me if my son's behaviour was due to me working! That's another point, we must stop blaming and shaming parents.
Another ongoing debate is the urgent need for a play-based approach, for children up to the age of seven.
We also know that when children who are traumatised display behaviour that may be a cause for concern, they are trying to tell the adults that something is not right and please can you help me.
To quote my colleague, Jane Evans, the internationally renowned trauma and parenting expert: "Children are attachment seekers, not attention seekers."
It is only when we include trauma, child development, anxiety and neuroscience into initial qualifications and ongoing professional development that we will be able to fully respect and fully support children with their holistic needs. This needs to be appropriately funded by the Government and importantly must include Government understanding of why development-appropriate practice is so important within the Early Years.
I discuss this and more during my bespoke helping children to self-regulate their behaviour course, date of next course Saturday 24th February 2018. To book, please email: firstname.lastname@example.com

Dubai - Oman is considering setting up a new regional airline that could take over domestic operations from state carrier Oman Air, two sources familiar with the matter told Reuters.
A request for proposal was issued this month by state entity Oman Aviation Group for a feasibility study into operating the new airline, 'Oman Link,' the sources said.
Setting up a new airline for domestic flights would allow Oman Air to focus on its international network where it competes with large Gulf carriers Emirates, Qatar Airways, and Etihad Airways.
The new airline could partner with Oman Air with both carriers connecting passengers to each other but would have its own independent management, the sources said on the condition of anonymity because the details are private.
Proposals are to be submitted by Nov. 11, one of the sources said.
The new airline would use regional jets for domestic flights and potentially later to other cities in the region where there is not enough demand to fill the larger single aisle jets used by other airlines in Oman.
Oman Aviation Group and its unit Oman Air did not respond to separate emailed requests for comment.
Oman Air operates flights to four airports in the country, including the main Muscat International, according to its website.
The airline uses 166-seat Boeing 737 jets and 71-seat Embraer E175 aircraft on domestic and regional flights.
Both aircraft types are too costly to consistently operate domestic routes at a profit, according to industry sources.
Oman has been restructuring its aviation sector in recent years. Oman Aviation Group was formed in 2018 and includes Oman Air, Oman Airports and Oman Aviation Services.
A budget, second airline, Salam Air, was launched in 2017.
It is owned by Omani government pension funds and the Muscat municipality.
Last week, Eithad and Air Arabia said they were jointly setting up a low cost carrier in Abu Dhabi.

I was watching "AgDay" yesterday and noted in the business section that Mark Gold of Top Third Ag Marketing was the guest and had a discussion on how gross revenue per acre is more important than yield per acre. His insight was that it can be more important to budget for getting top marketing dollars for your crop than to worry about the greatest yield per acre. With the improvements in technology, farmers can get great yields on their crops; however, if they end up with the bottom third for their price, they will end up net losers for the crop year.
I believe that you need to take this concept one step further and key in on net revenue per acre, not gross revenue. My definition of net revenue per acre is to take your gross revenues from crop sales and government payments and then subtract all direct input costs related to this crop. For example, let's take two farms. One farmer is able to achieve 175 bu. of corn per acre and sells it for $3.75. The farmer spends $300 per acre on direct inputs (fertilizer, oil and gas, labor, etc.). The other farmer gets only 160 bu. per acre; however, he sells it for $4.00 per bushel and spends only $250 per acre on direct input costs. Which farmer makes the most money?
The answer is the second farmer. Farmer No. 1 has gross revenue of $656.25 per acre and net revenue per acre of $356.25. Farmer No. 2 has gross revenue of only $640.00 per acre; however, his net revenue is $390.00 per acre, which is about $34 higher than farmer No. 1.
As you can see, a farmer needs to key in on maximizing net revenue per acre, not just the yield per acre.

By far, the best idea I have ever found to create better writers is to make sure that kids are writing every day. Good writers are people who write. You can't get to be good at something you don't practice. I know. I can't ever run a marathon alongside my hubby because I don't go on all of the shorter practice runs and long bike trips that he takes to build himself up for the big race. Okay, I don't go on any of them. I sit on the couch and read. Don't expect me to ever win a race. Ever. I read and write and then take a cab to the finish line to celebrate with my sweetie!
I do know a few things about teaching writing, though! Here are a few:
- Kids need to write. Every day. Journals, interactive notebook responses, letters and thank you notes, responses to reading. Every day.
- Writers need to talk to other writers. Give kids time to discuss in pairs or small groups after a topic has been assigned. We can do this for most classroom writing situations. Not for big assessments, of course!
- Writing should be fun! Make sure that your topics are broad enough so that students can interpret them in a way that is meaningful to them. This is especially important with personal narratives!
- Show students ways they can embellish their writing. I have another blog post about that here. Embellishing their work with drawings, diagrams, color, glue - ins, etc., will add interest and encourage reluctant writers who enjoy art to add more to their work.
- Probably the most important thing to remember as you encourage your young authors: Give them time to write. This is a hard one, given the time crunch teachers are under every day to fit everything in. You won't find this time if you try to have the whole class write at the same time every day. You can find it if you use a station or center approach (like Daily Five). You can be covering lots of ground with small focused groups and even individual conferences while some of your class is involved in other activities - like writing!

Where changes seldom come in pairs
Few make it out here, you will either have to rely on air connections, leaving you almost stranded for a week, before you can fly back to Nouakchott, or drive with your own 4WD. Should you make the effort, you will not regret it. Tidjikja is so much a world set apart, and according to reliable sources, true slavery still exists here,- "white" Mauritanians hold "black" Mauritanians as slaves, even if the Mauritanian governments have taken serious measures to stop this tradition.
Tidjikja was founded in 1680 by the Moorish tribe Idaw'ali, which was driven out of the more prosperous Adrar region. Tidjikja was offering enough for a new settlement, and palmeraies were planted, and a distinct culture developed. Through the village, a riverbed is running, seldom carrying any water, but occasionally it can be flooding.
While many of the houses of Tidjikja are falling apart, there are areas offering great views. The houses are built from dressed stone, kept together by clay or clad in clay. The roofs are flat, and constructed from palm- trunks. The rooms are very narrow, and oriented to inner courtyards. Houses are ornamented by geometrical designs, and gargoyles on the roofs.

Lime green, turquoise, purples have flashed on nails for several seasons. So how do you bring a new fashion element into polish for summer. This summer's trend is for texture more than tone. As with clothing fashion trends it is the season of extremes – so interpret that for nails shiny metallics (pewter and gold) […]

Take a look.......
This was my first time doing this portion of the trail. It was so nice to get out in the fresh air and sunshine and enjoy the magnificent scenery.
Hope you all have a great week.
I am from Gambo, NL, located on the east coast of Canada, in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean. My hometown of Gambo was once divided into three smaller communities, known as Middle Brook, Dark Cove & Gambo. I grew up in Dark Cove, and absolutely love to cook and bake, so I thought what better name could there be for my first blog than 'My Dark Cove Pantry'. Even though I now live in Flatrock, and now have a new pantry, it will always be 'My Dark Cove Pantry'.

Happy Easter!
An update on the campaign:
This TUESDAY, 3rd April, at 2pm in Livingston, West Lothian Council will hold a special meeting to discuss one topic - a motion to instruct council officials to explore a model for the Instrumental Music Service based on fairness, and on fees. They would come back later with a proposal on which councillors would decide.
There's ONE thing you can do to help - be there. Bring friends, family, passing strangers. Phone them and make sure they'll come. Most of all, bring your children, and make sure they bring their instruments. And if you can't make it, please get someone else to go for you - grandparents are ideal.

The implications about the importance of sacrifice to a society really come out in this episode, though I wonder to what degree it was intended, and to what degree it was just meant to be twisted.
Britney Spears is part of a media circus, hounded at every turn. And it's gone too far. Hoping to land the photo that will get them the big bucks, the boys make it into her room at a local motel and try to snap a picture. Considering it the last straw, Britney tries to blow her own head off, but bungles that and ends up walking around with only half a head.
The boys make it their mission to help her get free of this mess, rehabilitate her and let her live her life in peace. However, the people around her keep trying to control her and drive this media frenzy, whether by recording a new album in her state, putting her on an awards show and more. And everybody keeps talking about her at every turn.
Eventually, though, the boys manage to get her away from all this nonsense and start to head with her towards the North Pole where they think she will finally be left alone. But that's not going to happen. They are forced to get off in the middle of no where and they start running, only to be surrounded by the entire country. And then the sacrifice of Britney Spears takes place to appease the gods and ensure that the harvest will come in nicely. For you see, the gods have always demanded a young girl be sacrificed to them, and in our society we build one up to the top and then watch her get destroyed until she becomes the ultimate sacrifice.
This has undertones of so many child sacrifice stories, whether references to Canaanite cultures in the Bible, Iphigenia, or numerous other pagan societies. And it's a disturbing comment on our own. A very weird and twisted episode.

Determination of right to patent after grant
37.-(1) After a patent has been granted for an invention any person having or claiming a proprietary interest in or under the patent may refer to the comptroller the question -
- (a) who is or are the true proprietor or proprietors of the patent,
- (b) whether the patent should have been granted to the person or persons to whom it was granted, or
- (c) whether any right in or under the patent should be transferred or granted to any other person or persons;
and the comptroller shall determine the question and make such order as he thinks fit to give effect to the determination.
[Rule 44: entry made in register]
(2) Without prejudice to the generality of subsection (1) above, an order under that subsection may contain provision -
- (a) directing that the person by whom the reference is made under that subsection shall be included (whether or not to the exclusion of any other person) among the persons registered as proprietors of the patent;
- (b) directing the registration of a transaction, instrument or event by virtue of which that person has acquired any right in or under the patent;
- (c) granting any licence or other right in or under the patent1 ;
- (d) directing the proprietor of the patent or any person having any right in or under the patent to do anything specified in the order as necessary to carry out the other provisions of the order.
(3) If any person to whom directions have been given under subsection (2)(d) above fails to do anything necessary for carrying out any such directions within 14 days after the date of the order containing the directions, the comptroller may, on application made to him by any person in whose favour or on whose reference the order containing the directions was made, authorise him to do that thing on behalf of the person to whom the directions were given.
(4) Where the comptroller finds on a reference under this section that the patent was granted to a person not entitled to be granted that patent (whether alone or with other persons) and on application made under section 72 below makes an order on that ground for the conditional or unconditional revocation of the patent, the comptroller may order that the person by whom the application was made or his successor in title may, subject to section 76 below, make a new application for a patent -
- (a) in the case of unconditional revocation, for the whole of the matter comprised in the specification of that patent; and
- (b) in the case of conditional revocation, for the matter which in the opinion of the comptroller should be excluded from that specification by amendment under section 75 below;
and where such new application is made, it shall be treated as having been filed on the date of filing the application for the patent to which the reference relates.
[Rule 20: 3 month time limit to make replacement application]
(5) On any such reference no order shall be made under this section transferring the patent to which the reference relates on the ground that the patent was granted to a person not so entitled, and no order shall be made under subsection (4) above on that ground, if the reference was made after the the second anniversary of23 the date of the grant, unless it is shown that any person registered as a proprietor of the patent knew4 at the time of the grant or, as the case may be, of the transfer of the patent to him that he was not entitled to the patent.
(6) An order under this section shall not be so made as to affect the mutual rights or obligations of trustees or of the personal representatives of a deceased person, or their rights or obligations as such.
(7) Where a question is referred to the comptroller under this section an order shall not be made by virtue of subsection (2) or under subsection (4) above on the reference unless notice of the reference is given to all persons registered as proprietor of the patent or as having a right in or under the patent, except those who are parties to the reference.
(8) If it appears to the comptroller on a reference under this section that the question referred to him would more properly be determined by the court, he may decline to deal with it and, without prejudice to the court's jurisdiction to determine any such question and make a declaration, or any declaratory jurisdiction of the court in Scotland, the court shall have jurisdiction to do so.
(9) The court shall not in the exercise of any such declaratory jurisdiction determine a question whether a patent was granted to a person not entitled to be granted the patent if the proceedings in which the jurisdiction is invoked were commenced after the second anniversary of5 the date of the grant of the patent, unless it is shown that any person registered as a proprietor of the patent knew at the time of the grant or, as the case may be, of the transfer of the patent to him that he was not entitled to the patent.

Long time no see, I guess.
I'm officially a college graduate… weird.
I'm sorry I haven't written in a long time. Studying for finals and going to graduation rehearsals took up much of my time. After getting my diploma, I took some R &R for myself for the first week and then devoted myself to job hunting.
I plan to upload pictures of my graduation soon.
Sorry this post is short, but I wanted to let everyone know that I didn't fall off the face of the earth 🙂
Blessed be
Hey everyone!
Sorry if this post is going to be really short but it's late in the semester with only a month or so left of school before winter break (Yay!) and what with trying to do NaNoWriMo and all this essay writing, I haven't been at my best lately. So far, my word count isn't where I want it to be. I don't even want to mention it, but do count me out yet! I plan to write-up until the very end and we'll see what happens.
Have a great weekend guy! Blessed Be )0(

Family Dinner
When a child is overweight or obese, it's a family problem and, while not a solution in itself, having family meals can help reduce your family's risk for becoming overweight or obese. When families eat together, they tend to eat healthier meals -- less fried foods and more vegetables. The good news is that many families are already practicing this tip. A study published in the March 2010 issue of "Pediatrics" found that about 56 percent of American families have dinner together at least six evenings per week, and when families ate dinner together more than five times a week, there was a 23 to 25 percent reduction in the number of kids with weight problems.
Remember tip number nine? It counts here, too. When families watch TV while eating, even if you're all sitting together at the dinner table, the nutritional quality of the meal takes a nosedive, so turn off the tube and spend time with each other.

Driven by the belief that access to legal help is a fundamental right, we remain the principal innovative force in the legal industry. Offering helpful tools and convenient access to attorneys, LegalZoom is the go-to resource for modern legal solutions.
LegalZoom's Marketing team was finding it challenging to maintain a desirable CPA through their Google Display Network (GDN) campaigns. With manual bidding efforts, they were unable to make effective changes to keep up with the fluctuations that naturally occur in GDN campaigns. They needed a more automated solution to achieve the results they wanted.
The LegalZoom Marketing team decided to test Kenshoo's new Bid2Val policy for Display with CPA as the value target. Through the automated bidding algorithm, LegalZoom would be able to manage bids more efficiently and target their unique business goals for each profile.
LegalZoom tested with a selection of GDN campaigns before rolling out to the rest of their Display portfolio. The results were simply amazing. LegalZoom's CPA decreased by 81% and Conversion volume increased by 55%! LegalZoom is now armed with a tool to make significant improvements across all of their GDN campaigns, and may even decide to change their current budget mix to increase volume through Display and Remarketing. Kenshoo's Bid2Val Policy for Display gave LegalZoom the performance and the insights to make significant improvements to their overall marketing strategy.

Katherine M. Reinhart (University of Cambridge)
Founded only six years apart, the Royal Society of London and the Académie Royale des Sciences in Paris were two of the most important and influential scientific societies founded in the seventeenth century. Despite their very different national contexts, both societies regularly created drawings and printed images as part of their scientific pursuits and publications. Richard Waller of the Royal Society and Claude Perrault of the Paris Academy both actively participated in the scientific life of their respective institutions while at the same time each played an important role as an image-maker. In addition to his scientific investigations, translation work, and tenure as secretary, Richard Waller created many images for the early Royal Society from study drawings to engraved frontispieces. In Paris, Claude Perrault drove the anatomical research programme that became the Histoire des animaux volume, but he was also frequently tasked with creating images during the Academy's dissections and experiments. What role did these two men play in shaping the visual programmes of their respective scientific societies? And how did their backgrounds as image-makers shape the scientific work they performed and vise versa? This paper will analyse the visual and graphic practices of these two prominent scientific societies through the work of two of their chief image-makers: Richard Waller and Claude Perrault.

The children have planned and written over a week some fantastic adventure stories using characters and settings from Roald Dahl stories. Please ask your child about their story and have a read of it when you come to parents' evening next term.
There are some days that are brilliant!
All the staff working in Holly Class this morning were so proud of the children. They have worked hard to start their adventure stories, grasped the idea of missing numbers in column additions and had an absolutely brilliant making session with their "Story Scene in a Box" work. Well done everyone!
Legacy Challenge
Our class took part in the Legacy Hockey Challenge and managed to cover over 3000m! Very impressive for only about 25 minutes. Well done Holly Class.

We are so glad that you have found our new page- how exciting to have a new website!
The term is already in full swing and our Roald Dahl topic is fantastic! We started our t-shirts last week and are well on the way with our designs for a "Scene in a box" model making link to Roald Dahl's stories and Quentin Blake's illustrations. Please do feel free to come into class at the end of the school day to have a look at the fantastic displays we have in the classroom to help us in our learning.
Today we have been working in groups to investigate the effects of friction.
Our Roald Dahl T-shirts
We continued to add to our t-shirts this afternoon, choosing another favourite quote then adding our first Quentin Blake style character drawing. They really are starting t look great!
We had our second session of Mindfulness through art with Mrs Alexander today. After our deep breathing and stretching warm up, Mrs Alexander showed us how to create fantastic Mandalas using repeated patterns within areas of a circle. They really did look effective by the end of the session!

Matt Lorito scored for the second straight game and Parker Wotherspoon posted his first goal of the season, while Jakub Skarek (2-3-0) made 29 saves on 34 shots. Five Penguins had a multi-point performance including Adam Johnson (1g, 1a), who recorded the eventual game-winner at 11:54 of the second period. Penguins goaltender Casey DeSmith (10-4-0) had 26 saves in his sixth consecutive victory.
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton struck first on its initial power play at 6:13 of the opening frame to take a 1-0 lead. With Mason Jobst in the box for holding, Oula Palve guided a long one-time slap shot from the blue line that was deflected by Stefan Noesen and Sam Miletic, resulting in Miletic's third goal of the season on the rebound. However, the Sound Tigers answered just over five minutes later when Wotherspoon fired home the equalizer. Lorito made a nifty pass from behind the goal line, filtering the puck to the right wing where Wotherspoon buried a quick shot on the forehand. Andrew Ladd also gathered an assist.
Matt Abt regained the Penguins' lead at 6:07 of the second period with his first goal of the year. Abt lifted a long shot from the left point that funneled through a crowd and over Skarek's glove for the first of back-to-back goals that put the home team ahead 3-1. Johnson followed up at the 11:54 mark by beating Skarek from distance, assisted by Chase Berger and Anthony Angello.
Less than two minutes later, Bridgeport got its deficit back down to one with Lorito's team-leading sixth goal of the year. Colin McDonald pushed a pass up the wall to left point where Seth Helgeson stepped into a heavy slap shot that Casey DeSmith kicked back, but Lorito finished the second chance from the doorstep. It was also his 12th point in 23 games, tied with Sebastian Aho for the team lead.
The Penguins ended the night with two third-period goals to earn the 5-2 win. Angello's fifth of the season made it 4-2 at the 5:13 mark before Palve netted his first of the year shortly after. Palve's body deflected a point shot from Thomas Di Pauli on a delayed penalty at 6:24.
The Sound Tigers finished the game 0-for-3 on the power play and 4-for-5 on the penalty kill.
The contest also included one fight when Wotherspoon and Chase Berger went toe-to-toe in the final five minutes of regulation.

I got a little tipsy last night. And by "tispy" I mean dancing, double-fisting drunk.
Seriously, though, there are few joys in life as great as getting bombed. First of all, it makes you happy (unless you're one of those dicks who starts crying the second the Keystone is cracked). I mean, what? Magic liquid that washes away sadness? It's like something out of a geeky fantasy book.
Secondly, name one thing that isn't improved with alcohol. Add "drunk" to the beginning of any activity and it becomes 1,000 times better. Sledding = drunk sledding! Dinner with the parents = drunkenly listening to old people's stories! I mean, which sounds better to you, dancing or drunk dancing? I thought so.
Of course, this might be my raging alcoholism talking, but even though I got pretty hammered last night, I think that might be in the cards for this evening too. And, let's be honest, tomorrow as well. Life is short, and I would rather spend my precious minutes in a Midori-sour-induced haze than any other way.
Plus (thirdly? Fourthly? I don't know, my brain is floating in vodka instead of cerebrospinal fluid) it gives you lots of good stories. When you're old, would you rather tell your grandkids about how you stayed in every night and played Battleship, or would you like to start stories with, "When I drank that bottle of Jack…" I don't know about you, but I'd rather be a legend. (Whoa nelly, that sounds a little epic for a post about how much I love to drink. But you know what I mean, Internet.) Whatever, go mix yourself a little something sweet (with about 40% alcohol by volume).
