Increasing urbanisation means that our living environment is becoming smaller. We occupy fewer square metres and move around more often. It's time for a new type of furniture to fit in with this modern lifestyle. '10:1' by Christian Hammer Juhl is designed to deflate when needed. The furniture is made of a dense foam that can be compressed to 10 percent of the original size using the suction power of a vacuum. Instead of being stuck with a living space in a set state, it's fluid; ours to shape as we please.

On March 24, 2015, Germanwings flight A320 crashed in the French Alps. All 150 people on board, including the pilot and co-pilot, were killed. Evidence later showed that the co-pilot, Andreas Lubitz intentionally crashed the plane. After the crash, family members of the victims sought answers, but their compensation was limited by German law. A number of lawsuits were filed, including a lawsuit against Lubitz's doctor who did not report the young man's mental health problems.
The father of one of the victims has filed a lawsuit against Lubitz's physician for allegedly failing to report Lubitz's mental problems. The 61-year-old father of a young woman who died in the accident blames the physician for not communicating the pilot's mental issues to the airline or German regulators. The man is also filing a lawsuit against Lufthansa's medical experts, and German aviation authorities.
"Confidentiality no longer applies," said the man in an interview with the German newspaper Die Welt, "because she knew her patient was a pilot with mental issues that were repeatedly expressed."
In the months leading up to the crash, Lubitz had seen more than 40 doctors. None of those doctors brought their concerns to Germanwings or aviation authorities. The only time the airline became aware of a "severe depressive episode," was in 2009, when Lubitz himself informed Lufthansa about his mental health. His pilot training was put on hold, but he was later declared fit to continue.
He was taking the highest dose of an anti-depressant, which he reported was making him restless. He was also concerned about losing his eyesight. Shortly before the crash, Lubitz sent an email to his doctor, which reportedly said, "I am afraid to go blind and I can't get this possibility out of my head."
Another report from the French crash investigation agency found that Lubitz had been recommended for a stay in a psychiatric hospital only two weeks before the crash.
Frank Ulrich Montgomery, head of Germany's doctor's association, criticized both the airline and German aviation regulators for allowing Lubitz to fly and not monitoring his health status more closely. "As doctors, we find it appalling that both the Federal Aviation Authority and Lufthansa knew that this pilot had records of severe depression but underwent no particular checks," Montgomery said in an interview.
More family members have filed a lawsuit against the Arizona training facility where Lubitz received part of his pilot's training. Filing the lawsuit in a U.S. court may allow families to seek greater compensation for their lost loved ones. Germanwings offered families about $80,000 per victim for financial assistance and pain and suffering.
In the legal action against the Arizona flight school, owned by Lufthansa, lawyers for the family allege that this was where Lubitz's psychological problems first came to light. As a result, he never should have been allowed to continue his training or subsequent employment as a pilot.
If you or a loved one has been injured as the result of a medical error, the Gilman & Bedigian team is fully equipped to handle the complex process of filing a malpractice claim. Our staff, including a physician and attorneys with decades of malpractice litigation experience, will focus on getting you compensated, so you can focus on healing and moving forward.

Oh Woman You Make Me Feel!
The URGH! Man of the Week is none other than Ferry Corsten, who has single-handedly rescued an early 90s Duran Duran song and turned it into the hot single "Fire".
But with this pop resurrection comes some confusion…
- faithnomorefreak
- I'm wondering who this is by…
Has a female vocal with something like "I want you to make me feel like I'm on fire…"
The lyrics are probably totally wrong, but…umm….Help?
- Justin Dohman
- Ferry Corsten "Fire"
The vox are actually Simon LeBon of Duran Duran.
- faithnomorefreak
- Are you serious?! Wow, he sounds like a bitch now!
Tune in next week as we poke more fun at LeBon's masculinity as the Shapeshifters take on "Electric Barbarella"!

Childcare is provided for babies and toddlers during our Sunday morning worship service at 10:30 a.m.
We ensure that all adult leaders have their Police Clearance. Each teen working in this area has been trained by St. John Ambulance and has received their Babysitting and Church Nursery Training. The childcare room is located off the east corridor of the church building (to the left as you enter the church through the main doors) and are right across from the women's washroom. We are open on Sunday mornings from 9:30 a.m. if you wish to attend Sunday School, and 10:15 a.m. otherwise; your children will be monitored until the end of the church service.
When you arrive, you will notice that our department is divided into three specific rooms – Infants, Toddlers and Preschool. Upon your arrival to the Nursery Department, one of our dedicated volunteers will assist you in signing your child into one of our rooms, taking down any specific instructions you may have, and providing you with a number that will be used to page you from the sanctuary should your child require you during the service. This is done to ensure that your little one receives the most age-appropriate care possible.

Vegan Chubosauruswhat this fat vegan eats
Archive for chocolate
birthday cake and pie
I'm interrupting Soup Week for a one-off post about chocolate. I know, it's tough to read about chocolate, but bear with me, and there will be more soup tonight. Heh.
My one and only offspring turned 16 (!!!) the Saturday before last. I offered to make him a cake or some cupcakes, and he sat down with some of my cookbooks to decide what he wanted. He brought me Veganomicon and said, "This!" while pointing to the recipe for Smlove Pie. Yes! I'd been wanting an excuse to make it!
Yes, this pie lives up to the hype.
He also wanted a chocolate-cinnamon cake of some sort ("Chocolate cake, mom. With lots of chocolate. And chocolate frosting. And some cinnamon would be good.") I chose Veganmania's Best Vegan Chocolate Cake recipe, adding some cinnamon to the dry ingredients. I topped it with a vegan chocolate buttercream, also with a bit of cinnamon sprinkled in. I sifted cinnamon over the top, and added green decorator's sugar and chocolate sprinkles. It was, I have to admit, ugly.
Also,I really could use a cake stand.
HOWEVER. This cake is aptly named – it truly is the Best Vegan Chocolate Cake – rich, deeply flavored, dense, moist. DELICIOUS. The offspring was thrilled with it, and everyone raved. So: SUCCESS.
Also, make that cake. Make it right now. You won't be sorry. I bow to you, VeganMania goddess.

mmmm, hot chocolate – veganmofo 6
My husband asked me, in that way of asking that isn't so much a question as an anvil-sized hint, "Don't you want to make some hot chocolate?" Why, yes, darling. Yes, in fact, I do. It's wet and chilly and this past week didn't have nearly enough joy.
Dinner was a Boca burger and fries. Um, technically, that meal was dinner AND lunch, as I was not so great at feeding myself today. Oops? Anyway, I didn't photograph it, because everyone know what a Boca burger and fries looks like. Of course, everyone knows what hot chocolate looks like, too, but that didn't stop me!
Because a Hello Kitty mug makes everything taste better.
Good Karma whole grain rice milk and Ibarra Mexican chocolate. Oh! And some Sweet & Sara marshmallows (torn into little pieces) on top. Yes, of course I have Dandies, but I didn't want to open a package just for two marshmallows. I wish I'd had a can of Soyatoo Whip – that'd been even better than marshmallows.
My husband spiked his with cinnamon schnapps. Not me. Not ever, no way, me and cinnamon schnapps are DONE FOREVER I MEAN IT. We had a bad breakup.
I know it's not much of a post, y'all, but hot chocolate! Mexican hot chocolate! Is love!

Nelson County 12"
↳ jacking house and techno jams from Detroit's finest
Earn up to 119 Reward Points with this purchase! more info
Omar-S returns with a four pack of heaters! It's gonna be all about the title track for most of you here. Classic Detroit styled house, a little rough around the edges as only Omar can do it. We can't blame you if you're expecting a follow up to 2012's excellent "Wayne County Hill Cop's (Part.2)" and the bass line delivers on the promise somewhat. For the most part though it's just a heavy duty groove that will definitely get things going. Don't be shy about checking out the rest of the record, either. He works out some seriously jacking jams that are sure to please. Recommended.

Easter is supposedly the traditional time for planting potatoes – though how that works when the date of Easter is so variable, I have no idea!
My seed potatoes have been chitting on the windowsills for what seems like months, so just as it seemed they were about to walk out of the door under their own steam, I have been able to enjoy a sunny bank holiday in the garden and get them all planted up.
In previous years I have bought proper seed potato stock – but I have often found myself with more spuds that I know what to do with. My space & large pot supply is limited, so there are only so many I can plant. This year, I still had some of last year's crop left – Red Duke of Yorks, Swift and Charlotte. So I have taken a chance and used the healthiest of these for this year's planting seed. I know this has the risk of disease, but they did so well and have kept nicely, so I fancy my chances.
I have tried planting potatoes several ways here in Inverness – in the raised beds, in large pots and in old compost bags. Pots and compost bags have had by far the best results, and bags also have the advantage of being space efficient, mobile and easy to feel when the potatoes are ready. So this year I planted up the seed entirely in compost bags, which I saved over the previous year.
I turn them inside out so that the black faces out and absorbs heat and just add a few drainage holes. I stand them on the slope beneath the wall, otherwise a difficult spit. What is great about using compost bags is that you can just roll them right down when you first plant, then as the green growth starts to show, you simply add more compost to bury the shoots, rolling up the bag a little higher and higher as you go in order to make space for that extra compost.
This is probably not the recommended approach, but I find I don't need to fill the bag with expensive shop bought compost. I use my home made compost as the base to sit the seed potatoes on, I cover them with multipurpose compost, then I alternate between home made & multipurpose compost as I go along. Then it is just a case of keeping them moist and trying to figure out when the crop is ready (both easy as can be when using bags).
I tend to grow earlies and I don't tend to leave them to get huge, so blight isn't usually an issue. Fingers crossed for another bumper crop!


text: Today our Collect at Holy Mass reminds us of something important. It says that without God "mortal humanity is sure to fail." We know this is true. Whenever we embark on some project, or seek to clean up some mess or fix some situation–if God isn't a part of the process, it doesn't work. Without God we are bound to fail. With God, though, we are sure to succeed. "With God, all things are possible."
