It is easy to point a finger at your genetic code when it comes to the blame-game for wrinkles.
Unfortunately, though, scientists have found that genetics actually only govern around 30% of how the human body ages. The other 70% is determined by your own lifestyle. Here at Victoria's Cosmedi Spa in Launceston, we know what it means to feel the sting of age – particularly when your wrinkles are hanging out in plain sight for the entire world to see! On that note, we thought we would kick off the New Year with a few tips to help you reduce the signs of ageing and the appearance of wrinkles this year.
1. Make sure you have your beauty sleep
The amount of time you sleep and apparently even how you sleep can contribute to wrinkling formation. According to Yale dermatologist Nicholas Perricone MD, the human body produces more Human Growth Hormone (HGH) when we get enough sleep. This helps boost elasticity in the skin, making your skin less likely to wrinkle.
Ever noticed sleep lines before? When we sleep on the side in the same position every night, we can cause permanent sleep line wrinkles. Sleeping on your back can help to reduce wrinkle formation.
2. Take care in the sun
In a country where melanoma claims more than 1,200 lives a year, the need for proper skin care should simply be a fact of our everyday lives. When it comes to taking care of your skin, sun exposure is believed to be even more of a contributor to wrinkles and ageing than genetic factors.
Here at Victoria's Cosmedi Spa, we have an assortment of sunscreen and skincare products from La Roche-Posay. La Roche-Posay's sunscreen range Anthelios has adapted textures to suit different situations, skin types, and levels of exposure. Recommended by over 25,000 dermatologists, La Roche-Posay sunscreens available at Victoria's are both UVB and UVA protected.
3. Assess your diet
Studies have shown that there are a number of different foods that can help to keep your skin healthy and youthful.
Here are just a few:
Cold water fish such as salmon are filled to the brim with protein and omega-3. Omega-3 fatty acids help to protect the skin from harmful free-radicals that come from ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Omega-3 is not only good for your skin but good for your hair as well. And when it comes to ageing, thinning hair is a key contributor to appearing more aged.
Similar to fish, fruits and vegetables play host to antioxidant compounds that fight damage caused by free radicals. This helps skin look younger and more radiant, protecting against some effects of photo-ageing.
4. Photorejuvenation
Photo rejuvenation treatment at Victoria's Cosmedi Spa uses non-invasive techniques to treat the skin. Photorejuvenation is an effective anti-ageing therapy because it uses light to pass through the skin. This can stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, minimise the appearance of age spots, and ease the progression of rosacea (facial redness) with minimal to no downtime.
Find out more about photo rejuvenation here.
5. Non-injectable fillers/anti-wrinkle injectables
By minimising sun exposure and maintaining a healthy lifestyle you can help to delay the appearance of wrinkles before they form. Anti-wrinkle treatments are most applicable for treating the wrinkles that are still visible when your face is at rest (when you are not smiling, frowning or using any other expression). However, we do offer treatments for people who simply don't like expression wrinkles.
Here at Victoria's Cosmedi Spa, we offer injectable and non-injectable anti-ageing treatments for clients. The treatments differ considerably depending on what type of wrinkles you want to treat, how you want them to be treated and results achievable. Find out more about the different treatments by following the links below:
Your body is a temple, treat it accordingly
When it comes to taking care of your skin and reducing the signs of aging, the best way to approach it is by taking the time to practice full-body wellness. Stress and nutritional deficiencies can cause sleepless nights and give your skin that stressed appearance. If you are finding it difficult to overcome stress, maybe you should consider meditation, yoga, or simply going for daily walks to calm your mind.
To maximise the effects of your treatment, do your best to practice a combination of these tips. We also suggest drinking plenty of water and moisturising regularly all year round.
Can't quite work out what would be best for your skin?
Here at Victoria's Cosmedi Spa, we offer a "Get to know you" consultation where you can book a consultation and assessment with one of our fully qualified therapists.

Warning: This post contains political content.There are protesters gathered in New York today and have been for a couple of weeks now to remind us that Wall Street has purchased our government. Over a thousand have suffered arrest in the process. They are there to say simply: We are the 99%. There is a young man holding up a sign that says "I have to choose between an education or a meal." A retired gentleman that says, "Wall Street stole 25% of my 401k" And an elderly woman peaking over the top of a piece of paper that says, "I am weeks within running out of unemployment-- can't find a job-- and soon will not be able to pay my rent. Retirement eaten up by medical bills for my-- now deceased-- partner. I'm one of the 99%"
I consider myself fortunate. I have a city job that has paid sick and holidays. I have decent health insurance (although it will increase once again this year). I don't make a lot of money but it pays the bills. I'm a single mother (no child support) with more than my share of health care costs and my son also has asthma and needs medicine. At this moment I am rubbing my tongue on a chipped tooth in the back of my mouth. It's broken and needs fixed but I can't afford a root canal and I don't want it yanked out. I pay more for food, gas... basic survival and will lose out on money I have paid into Social Security and Medicare (when I get to that stage in my life) if things continue to go in the direction they are going because 1% of the population feels they are above the rules of society. I am the 99%.
Many stories but all there to remind America that Wall Street is stealing the American dream out from under us. We can't all be there to protest but we can support them in our own way-- from our blogs, from our tweets, from our pictures. After all YOU ARE ONE OF THE 99%.
#Occupy Wall Street!!
Here's a pretty powerful video of people who are at the protests: http://vimeo.com/29953676

I'm am soooooo sick of listening to my son arguing! With me, his dad, even his toys if no one else is talking to him at the moment. Everything has to be a negotiation or a discussion with him. (And yes, I have tried the "because I'm the mom and I said so!" routine.) Tonight we had to go gas up the cars and wash my jeep because the boys went "four-wheeling" this weekend. (That means they drove in the mountains for awhile, which is all this nervous mommy allows.) We also stopped by the video store which took much too long because I wouldn't allow Jake to rent any of the video games they had in stock. As we got in the car he asked what was for dinner and when I told him, his immediate response was to start complaining that he didn't like it and wasn't going to eat it. So I flagged down my husband and moved Jake to his car, because I was trying really hard to not lose it. The last stop was the car wash and while Brian washed the jeep I waited in his car with the kids. As soon as I got in with the baby, Jake started by saying, "Mom, I'm sorry I made you mad, buuuuut.... you see, I just really don't like that food and it doesn't taste good and I have a cold still and that's why it doesn't taste that good to me...." (You understand if you've ever had a conversation with a four-year old, they speak in run on sentences.) I told him he should probably stop talking because he was already on my crap list. When we left the car wash Jake told his dad that I wouldn't let him talk to me because he was complaining and he was "already on my crap list". So I apologize in advance if my son ever tells you you're on his "crap list", that was probably not a concept I should have introduced him to. Hey at least I didn't swear....

This morning Jake and I were watching the food network and as they panned across a bunch of chefs dressed in traditional white aprons and chef's hats Jake said, "Look mom, they're wearing pants on their heads!" His observations of the world always crack me up. Once, when he was 2 years old, we stopped to gas up our car. My husband got out to pump the gas while we waited in the car. Jake was listening very intently, then he looked at me with a worried expression and asked, "Mommy, is Daddy peeing on the jeep?!"

Interventions Colorado Springs – Call (877) 430-9798 Now
Take the First Step with Interventions Colorado Springs
It is painful, torturous experience to watch a friend endure and succumb to the horrible side effects of dependency. Typically, family and friends of an addict can feel just as helpless against dependency as their loved one does. An overwhelming majority of addicts will not be able to stop using drugs and alcohol all alone, so it is necessary to reach the addict in an emotional way by appealing to them to help save their life. By its nature, dependency is a condition that removes an individual's strength of will and self-discipline, so they frequently need assistance and support – from family, loved ones, and professional drug addiction recovery specialists – to get clean and healthy. Especially in cases when the addict is opposing all other efforts to assistance and pleas to get clean, Interventions Colorado Springs can help families begin recovery for their loved ones.
What Interventions Colorado Springs Does
With the assistance of Rehabilitation Colorado Springs, CO, families, friends, and loved ones of an addict can get the addict to agree to enter treatment as quickly as possible. There are lots of misunderstandings regarding interventions, including what they are and what their goal is. Simply put, an intervention is a planned, organized meeting wherein the addict's family members appeal to the addict to get treatment, or face the consequences, which most often include leaving home, losing their car, or being excluded from the family group. Rehabilitation Colorado Springs can help families locate an interventionist, find a treatment or rehab program, and get the right kind of help for their loved one. A proper intervention can keep a heroin addict from a terrible, brief life by persuading them to enter a treatment facility, like Heroin Rehab Colorado Springs.
What Is an Interventionist?
About 90% of the time, a correctly conducted, professionally supervised intervention will be successful in getting an addict to agree to enter a rehabilitation program. Commonly, family members contact psychologists, therapists, or professional interventionists to help organize, and sometimes to help supervise an intervention. Interventionists are extraordinarily skilled at effectively communicating with addicts, and with the friends and family of addicts, because they are most often addicts in recovery themselves. It's best to find an interventionist who has been certified by the Association of Intervention Professional Certification Board, because this ensures that they're adequately certified and trained for the types of challenges that substance dependency presents. To locate a certified interventionist, call Rehabilitation Colorado Springs, CO.
For Assistance Now, Contact Interventions Colorado Springs!
Trying to organize and host an intervention without the help of an interventionist, or other drug addiction professional, could be a very difficult thing. Effective interventions mean the difference between a pharmaceutical painkiller addict coming to Opiates Rehab Colorado Springs, or storming out to struggle on the streets. No intervention is a total failure, though, since in the end, person who is the target knows that there are people prepared to help them as soon as they are ready.
It is a troubling or horrifying experience to watch a family member endure and combat against substance addiction. Typically, interventions are highly-organized events requiring the combined efforts of friends and family, but it can be as easy as asking the person to stop their behavior. To locate an interventionist, locate a treatment facility, or discuss addiction in general, call Interventions Colorado Springs. Call immediately to help a family member get the support they so desperately require!

It's fashionable in Bitcoin these days to argue that Satoshi Nakamoto did not care about low transaction fees as an essential feature of Bitcoin.
The argument goes that Satoshi didn't care about fees because other cypherpunks like Nick Szabo and Hal Finney didn't care and that therefore anyone who claims otherwise is wrong. And so today we have the modern culture in BTC that unironically tells people to "just use Visa" if they want low fees.
Finally! Kudos for this unconvenient honesty. "Cash" in the cypherpunk culture had nothing to do w/ "muh low fee & fast confs". Actually, sending physical cash from Alice to Bob across the world, is MUCH slower & more expensive than a bank wire transfer! Cashness is not that!
— Giacomo Zucco (@giacomozucco) September 11, 2018
Evidence aside that Satoshi was not part of cypherpunk culture at all and that Bitcoin was an independent invention from the concepts outlined in papers like b-money and bit gold, this kind of appeal to authority relies on its listeners never actually reading Satoshi's writings for themselves.
The fact is that, whatever side of the BCH/BTC line you fall on, Satoshi did indeed care about micropayments. And whether he was wrong or right, we shouldn't rewrite history to serve an agenda.
In the interest of helping people have a proper understanding of the ideas behind the creation of Bitcoin, let's look at all the times Satoshi mentioned low fees or micropayments, the first of which is an often neglected passage in the introduction to the Bitcoin White Paper:
The cost of mediation increases transaction costs, limiting the minimum practical transaction size and cutting off the possibility for small casual transactions, and there is a broader cost in the loss of ability to make non-reversible payments for non-reversible services. With the possibility of reversal, the need for trust spreads.
Here Satoshi makes clear that payments above 1 cent USD are a clear part of Bitcoin's utility:
It could get started in a narrow niche like reward points, donation tokens, currency for a game or micropayments for adult sites. Initially it can be used in proof-of-work applications for services that could almost be free but not quite…Once it gets bootstrapped, there are so many applications if you could effortlessly pay a few cents to a website as easily as dropping coins in a vending machine.
The root problem with conventional currency is all the trust that's required to make it work…Their massive overhead costs make micropayments impossible.
For micropayments, you can safely accept the payment immediately. The size of the payment is too small for the effort to steal it. Micropayments are almost always for intellectual property, where there's no physical loss to the merchant. Anyone trying to steal a micropayment would probably not be a paying customer anyway, and if they want to steal intellectual property they can use the file sharing networks.
Your approach to micropayments sounds right…The end goal though should get to something like you describe, where it's similar to using your cell phone without really having to think about the per minute charges.
This last passage is interesting because it clarifies that when Satoshi is talking about "micropayments" he's talking about smaller transactions than are capable with the existing payment system. It is often used to say he changed his stance, but it's clear that he always meant for fees to be low enough for most day to day spending.
Arbitrarily small payments below 1 cent USD could be done with payment channels.
Bitcoin isn't currently practical for very small micropayments. Not for things like pay per search or per page view without an aggregating mechanism, not things needing to pay less than 0.01. The dust spam limit is a first try at intentionally trying to prevent overly small micropayments like that. Bitcoin is practical for smaller transactions than are practical with existing payment methods. Small enough to include what you might call the top of the micropayment range. But it doesn't claim to be practical for arbitrarily small micropayments.
Of course, the thoughts of Satoshi alone are not an argument, but understanding one of Bitcoin's key early value propositions and the reasoning for it should be one tool we use in informing the kinds of decisions made in the Bitcoin protocol in the future.
For most of its history, Bitcoin functioned as Satoshi hoped it would. It did indeed have low fees that made it very useful as cash. Whether it can continue to have those is a separate question that we're seeing play out in realtime with BTC and BCH, but denying that history outright is dangerous and puts us at odds with the Lindy Effect.
There has been unfortunately far too much propaganda and misinformation from so-called thought-leaders who either haven't read Satoshi himself or who know what he said and are pushing a false narrative in spite of it. Micropayments and low fees were part of Bitcoin whether certain people like it or not.

400mm…That might not sound much. But, that's the extra floor space you get at the end of the transverse island bed here in the all-new Compass Corona 554 when it's fully retracted. It's an action that's commendably easy to perform, and it's just one reason to investigate further.
Sure, it's a four-berth, but you can't help feeling it's couples who will keep the appeal of a keenly priced four-berth with a transverse island bed and a full-width end washroom floorplan like this to themselves.
Parent company Elddis has also moved its Compass Corona models very gently but very noticeably more upmarket, thanks especially to a full Alde central heating and hot water system. Colours are different for this year too, with the introduction of new woodwork and soft furnishings that add a touch of light blue to the proceedings.
Despite the apparent lack of windows, plenty of natural light comes in for the lounge area. That's thanks not just to the standard three-windowed front end and side windows but also, overhead, an opening sunroof set longitudinally in a panel that also houses LED lighting.
It's also an arrangement that allows a couple of decent-sized lockers at the very front over the windows.
Keeping the lounge short allows space for the other main cooking, sleeping and washing areas. The kitchen is mid-'van offside, with a centrally located 8-series Dometic fridge. Set above this is a circular sink and monoblock lever mixer tap set and a decent amount of worktop to its left. To the right, it's a Thetford Aspire 2 full cooker with dual-fuel hob and separate oven and grill. Kitchen storage comes in the form of two drawers and a large, unshelved cupboard to the left of the fridge, two lockers overhead (again, unshelved, but with crockery racking in the right-hand one).
Across the galley, the cupboard unit houses a Daewoo microwave oven, also offering a lower level ledge that's ideal for siting a TV, with a drawer and locker beneath.
Next to this, the wardrobe sits over two drawers and a floor locker. From here, it's easy to walk into the bedroom (although there is a concertina divider for privacy). This, the main wardrobe, is home to the lounge's free-standing table as well as the Alde's header tank.
There's a second wardrobe (his maybe?) on the opposite side of the bed. The bed itself only has two small corner shelves for putting things on at night (such as a glass of water or spectacles), although there are two lockers overhead. The mattress is an Ozio Coolsoft, from specialist caravan upholstery supplier, Leisure Furnishings – it's a triple layer polyester fibre construction that's particularly comfortable as well as being some 30 per cent lighter than traditional sprung-interior mattressing.
Lift up the bed's metal-framed base, however, and there's an extensive, uncluttered area of storage, also with an exterior access hatch.
Beyond this bedroom, there's sliding door access to a generous washroom. Here, you get a properly lined shower cubicle with a deep tray and single plughole, central sink with Caraflo mixer lever, and a swivel-bowl toilet with overhead locker.
As you can see from the list below, the Corona 554 has no shortage of rivals from every other UK manufacturer and more. That even includes the Elddis Avante 554, although this elects to go with Whale heating and hot water supplies.

Indigenous Methodologies: Characteristics, Conversations, and Contexts by Margaret KovachPublication Date: 2010
What are Indigenous research methodologies, and how do they unfold? Indigenous methodologies flow from tribal knowledge, and while they are allied with several western qualitative approaches, they remain distinct.
These are the focal considerations of Margaret Kovach's study,which offers guidance to those conducting research in the academy using Indigenous methodologies. Kovach includes topics such as Indigenous epistemologies, decolonizing theory, story as method, situating self and culture, Indigenous methods, protocol, meaning-making, and ethics.
Handbook of Critical and Indigenous Methodologies by Yvonna S. Lincoln (Editor); Linda Tuhiwai Smith (Editor); Norman K. Denzin (Editor)Call Number: GN 345 H364 2008
NanaimoThe Handbook of Critical and Indigenous Methodologies is the only handbook to make connections regarding many of the perspectives of the "new" critical theorists and emerging indigenous methodologies. Built on the foundation of the landmark SAGE Handbook of Qualitative Research, the Handbook of Critical and Indigenous Methodologies extends beyond the investigation of qualitative inquiry itself to explore the indigenous and nonindigenous voices that inform research, policy, politics, and social justice. Editors Norman K. Denzin, Yvonna S. Lincoln, and Linda Tuhiwai Smith explore in depth some of the newer formulations of critical theories and many indigenous perspectives, and seek to make transparent the linkages between the two. Key Features - Contains global examples including South African, Hawaiian, Maori, Central African and Islamic ones. * Includes a "Who's Who" of educators and researchers in critical methodologies. * Provides a comprehensive body of work that represents the state of the art for critical methodologies and indigenous discourses * Covers the history of critical and indigenous theory and how it came to inform and impact qualitative research * Offers an historical representation of critical theory, critical pedagogy, and indigenous discourse. * Explores critical theory and action theory, and their hybrid discourses: PAR, feminism, action research, social constructivism, ethnodrama, community action research, poetics. * Presents a candid conversation between indigenous and nonindigenous discourses. This Handbook serves as a guide to help Western researchers understand the new and reconfigured territories they might wish to explore.
Research Is Ceremony by Shawn WilsonCall Number: GN 380 W554 2008
CowichanDescribing a research paradigm shared by indigenous scholars in Canada and Australia, this study demonstrates how this standard can be put into practice. Portraying indigenous researchers as knowledge seekers who work to progress indigenous ways of being, knowing, and doing in a constantly evolving context, this examination shows how relationships both shape indigenous reality and are vital to reality itself. These same knowledge seekers develop relationships with ideas in order to achieve enlightenment in the ceremony of maintaining accountability. Envisioning researchers as accountable to all relations, this overview proves that careful choices should be made regarding selection of topics, methods of data collection, forms of analysis, and the way in which information is presented.
Doing Your Undergraduate Project by Denis ReardonPublication Date: 2006

text: BUSINESS Viacom Stock Hits Highest Price Since CBS Split 9:10 AM PDT 4/20/2011 by Georg Szalai FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME Daniel Acker/Bloomberg/Getty Images "Viacom currently sits at an operating sweet spot," Davenport analyst Michael Morris says in raising his price target on the stock. NEW YORK - Shares of Viacom hit their highest price in more than five years on Wednesday as Wall Street analysts continue to be bullish on the company and its stock. Amid a market rally due to strong earnings reports across sectors, Class B shares of Viacom, led by president and CEO Philippe Dauman, hit $48.45 early in the day, their highest price since the split of Viacom and CBS at the start of 2006. The stock then gave up most of its gains to close up a more modest 0.5% at $47.78, which gave the company a market value of $28.8 billion, according to Bloomberg. Before the market open on Wednesday, Davenport & Co. analyst Michael Morris issued a report entitled "Viacom's Time to Shine," in which he reiterated his "buy" rating on the stock and boosted his target price by $4 to $54. He cited continued ratings momentum at the company's cable networks, thanks to such hit shows as MTV's Jersey Shore, among others, and expectations of a stronger upfront advertising haul than last year. "Viacom currently sits at an operating sweet spot given strong ratings growth over the past several quarters at MTV, a robust kids' upfront market, a solid film lineup and an attractive valuation," the analyst wrote. "Viacom's domestic ad growth and strong position into the upfront remain underappreciated relative to more expensively priced cable network businesses (Scripps Networks, Discovery)." Ratings improvements will help the company strike upfront deals "from a position of power relative to the 2010 process when we believe price increases were among industry lows," he argued. Plus, "Viacom's higher relative exposure to film, toys and telco and lower auto exposure have the nets better positioned into the strong summer film and consumer products cycle," Morris said.

This past week was a busy one, and this week will be no different... But sometimes we have little things that take us away from all the busyness of life and remind us of what really matters in life.
Like weddings!
There is something so incredible about watching two people commit to yielding to, serving, and submitting to each other for the rest of their lives, especially when you know both of their hearts are completely genuine. Such a beautiful reflection of the love God has for us!
Weddings are also a super fun time to dress up. This was a dress I haven't worn since my honeymoon last year, and I even dusted off my wedding shoes!
1. Find something lightGirl, you know you're gonna be movin' and groovin' when you hit that reception dance floor. And even if you aren't a dance-floor kind of gal, big crowds or outdoor receptions tend to be very warm. Don't wear anything that's going to make you feel smothered, sweaty, or (heaven forbid) smelly!
2. Find something you can move inOne of the biggest mistakes is forgetting that you are going to want to move freely after the wedding.
Is the dress too short when you "raise the roof"?
Are you constantly tugging that strapless dress up when you're trying to get down?
Are you shaking too much when you're shaking your tail feathers?
Don't be that girl in the background of the wedding pictures that is losing her dress because she forgot she'd be showing "how low she can go" during the Cha-Cha Slide.
3. Find something you feel good inEveryone looks their best at a wedding. While you shouldn't base your appearance on your comparisons (definitely a bad decision) be aware that if you don't feel like you look good, you're going to feel like you look bad.
Feeling confident in the dress you wear is key to having a great time instead feeling insecure.
These are also good criteria to remember for shoes. (You gotta keep 'em dance-able!)
The dress I'm wearing I got at Francesca's last year... but below are a few orange faves I've found online (for under $40!)
What have ya'll been celebrating lately?
Do you have any criteria for finding the perfect dress to wear to a wedding?

The Baltimore Museum of Art has a huge collection of pieces from renowned artists, from Van Gogh to Picasso. But with the big names comes big crowds. For a less busy visit to a place with a wide range of artwork, check out the private collection-turned-public Walters Art Museum.
Not to sound like the SNL character, Stefon, but… this place has everything. There's art from Ancient Greece to the Renaissance, plus an honest to goodness mummy from the first century B.C.
The majority of the collection was assembled thanks to two men from the Walters family. William Thompson Walters, a Confederate sympathizer, began collecting art after he moved to Paris to avoid the conflict of the Civil War in 1861. He brought his findings back to his mansion near Baltimore, and his son, Henry, later rehoused them in their current location. After Henry passed away in 1931, he bequeathed the collection to the city of Baltimore, making the art accessible to all.
Some of the galleries are decorated as if you're walking through a home from that time period. There's vibrant wallpaper in the Renaissance area, and marble columns and tapestries that lead into an airy balcony, with ornamental plates and vases along the walls.
The museum prides itself on its diverse collection of works, and admission is free. The museum also is family-friendly, with a special art area where kids can play. Finding parking in the surrounding neighborhood can be a challenge, but a longer walk is worth it to walk past the many dining options and nearby Washington Monument. If you're looking to add some culture to your Baltimore trip, the Walters Museum is a must-see.

Are fountain pen sales on the increase ?.
You would be forgiven if you said the answer is definitely no they are not !!!. Well the honest answer is that yes fountain pen sales continue to grow year upon year, so the people at Westminster Pens are being told.
With onset of the computer and a host of other hi-tech electrical items experts estimated that the humble fountain pen would soon cease to exist. Why would anyone wish to write when you can send a letter across the world in a fraction of a second, why would you want to go out and post your letter when by the press of a button your letter will have been delivered?
For the sake of speed the computer will win hands down.
But when you take the time and effort to sit down with your own thoughts, clutching your favourite fountain pen in one hand and perhaps a glass of French wine in the other dare I say it, the humble fountain pen will always win hands down.
Before the onset of the mighty computer the humble fountain pen had to stand its ground with the advent of the ball point and the rollerball and a myriad of other fancy inventions which attempted to overpower the fountain pen. Many have tried and all have failed. The fountain pen chose to fight back with improvements in both the filling mechanism and the quality of the most important part of the pen – the nib.
The nib now comes in a variety of guises and the myth that people who write left handed would be unable to use a fountain has been well and truly put to bed. Left handed writers can now enjoy the experience of using a fountain pen each day.
We no longer have ' inky ' fingers and blotted handkerchiefs – these are a thing from a bygone age, improvements in the fountain pen mechanism have banished these inky fingers and blotted handkerchiefs to the history books.
Calligraphy is now so popular that a complete new industry has evolved, and no longer do we need to use a ' quill ' with a bottle of ink by the side. Choose your weapon – a fountain pen made from traditional wood or step into the 21st century and use a fountain pen made from carbon fibre, now all you have to do is change the nib and away you go.
The humble fountain pen has been with us for many years and we have no doubt that it will still be standing tall, head and shoulders above anything else that society can throw at it and future generations will still marvel at something that has stood the test of time.
We leave you with this thought – when Heads of State, Presidents, and Prime Ministers sign official documents the trusty fountain pen is their first and only choice.
That ladies and gentlemen says it all.

i don't know the title in English. Pelembut Hati or Penghalus Jiwa are the translation into Malay version.
i borrowed this book from my mother in my current happy circle family. :)
i finished reading this book on Muharram 1st, 1435, in the morning. alhamdulillah.
i have borrowed this book since the previous semester. he. he. well. this book is too... hmmm... it makes the feeling of the guilt of sins arouse. that makes me feels very... makes me not to deserve to do this, to do that, to live in this life (feels dirty? kinda)... nevertheless, it doesn't demotivate me till i feel like ending my life. there're hope. there're rooms of improvement.
it motivates me with faith.
faith in death. faith in the Judgement Day. faith in the paradise and the hell.
and... along the way i was finishing the reading, what's been discussed when i sat in my happy circle were kind of coherent with my reading. we discussed about how's our prophet Muhammad s.a.w was taken care by Allah in the events of chest operations, about the alam barzakh (world in grave; the transition from world of life to the Judgement Day)...
there are many sentap-an for the soul in the book. ^_______^"
there are many sya'ir for the soul.
urm. that's all, i think.
yeah. the aim of reading the book was to soften my hard-rock heart.
and i think, the objective is achieved.
next target is to make what i read be implemented in my daily life.
life with faith. yada. that's the hard point. and am afraid. hu-hu.
i'll make some notes regarding some points i think interesting and will be something great to be shared. ^_^ insya Allah.
(yada. i have another paper for examinations. but, i found myself is kinda slacking-lazying-around-not-revising, so, it's better for me to do other things that can improve myself somewhere. hue. i mean my time won't be spent with doing nothing that is really nothing at all like sleeping excessively! T_T may Allah bless. :)
below are the pictures of some pages from the book. enjoy them with your heart. :)
|the cover.
|one of the middle pages. BERJIWA BESAR.
|what i understand from this, i have to know myself. certainly. what i want? what i aim? my vision? my mission? all sorts of things in me. yet, i still have uncertainties in myself.
|a check-list for self.
|to live the life to the fullest is to live at night. hu.
|night. live the night!
|the beginning point. intention. intention. intention!
|to be honoured with the vision and mission.
|vision and mission!
|the meaningful sleep.
|berkawan biar beribu.
musuh jangan dicari.
|i'll make notes under this subtopic.
|when i was reading this, i was slacking.. how to say.. that time, i actually need to revise (just like now). but, i read this book. when i read this page, the last sentence, i closed the book and immediately i started to revise. T_T afraid.
|islam - berserah diri.
|thus, i know why there're people who really like to do something that seemed to be shouldn't be in their concern, at all.

Have you ever put your heart and soul into something for years and yet it didn't work out?
If so, this track's for you.
I was on my dream job - working for a small independent record label, writing songs with the talent, arranging the music for and playing in the band, designing and executing on the marketing strategy - I was living my dream.
I still love and miss everyone on the gig and don't regret a second of my time, but when it became apparent that I had to move on - this is the track that came out of me.
Death of a Startup
Grief is intensely personal - sure, you can experience it in tandem with family & friends but ultimately how it affects you is unique. I always thought that grief was special, that it was something reserved for tragic events like the death of a loved one or the loss of a limb, that there was some kind of "grief threshold" that you had to pass before it was OK to feel bad.
But that's not true.
Nobody died on the gig but man did I weep when I thought of what should have been, of how things could have been different, of how much energy & time was spent to pursue what turned out to ultimately be, unreachable.
When your venture fails - not only is there the loss of status, of position, of income - there is the horrendous guilt, the vicious inner voices that strip you naked and blame you for everything.
I wrote this track just before it got really bad, before the depression kicked in and I spent months barely keeping my shit together.
They tell you that when you "go for" something you shouldn't leave anything on the table - that you need to be all in. Well - the only problem with that is when it ends, and you have nothing left, it's practically impossible to stay out of "the hole."
Sure you function, you maintain family relationships, you move forward, you - to quote my Father "screw it up another notch" but inside you're falling deeper and deeper with no rope, no ariadne thread and no flashlight.
So yeah - that's fun isn't it!?
Grief isn't special
I grieved for the loss of the gig - for the loss of my dream and my time and for everybody else. It took me a while - a good 6 months at least - but I did come out the other end and yes - thankfully, was all the stronger for it.
Grief can hit you whenever
Don't let anyone belittle your grief - getting that shit out of your system is what it's all about.
Why Frustration?
The frustration I'm referring to is not the angry, cheated emotion – it is the sad one. The frustration of not getting what you want - to be frustrated in one's efforts.
It's the emotion that quietly grows inside of you, ignoring your pleas of mitigation and requests for more time. It's the emotion that leads you through the awful decision process which results in you having to share with people you have lived and loved with for years that you can no longer see the future.
It's the emotion that ultimately leads to loss - and that's why it is on this playlist.
Music to Grieve to Playlist on Spotify
As for the gig…
It was a Country gig - I love Kelli like a sister and no matter how you cut it - we write well together. We wrote over a hundred songs and worked up over 50 with a live band. I reckoned we had a killer album and possibly two great ones.
Kelli was always clear she wanted to sing in front of a great band. The quality of the players that came through was astonishing, cats that played for Diana Ross, Eddie Money, Ben Harper, Stirling Brig, The Clash, Serj Tankian, A Perfect Circle, Eagles of Death Metal and more, for me it was an amazing education.
Unlike founders of tech startups my product is still kicking around the internet. If I want to remember how we looked and played I can go here - but my favorite memory is a loose rehearsal right at the beginning of the project - two microphones in the room - nothing fancy - just a song and a band beginning to come together:
And now - although I still reflect on what could have been - now I remember the good times and remember what was.
And smile.

Winter flight mess: 3 jets get stuck on snowy taxiways
At least three commercial airliners have become stuck on snowy runways during the past 24 hours. The jets ran into problems during a winter storm to that's snarled airports across the nation.
In Michigan, two regional jets got stuck on Detroit taxiways Wednesday morning. Both jets were operated by partners of Delta Air Lines
"Shortly before 9 o'clock, we got a call that there were a couple of aircraft that weren't moving in two different spots on the east side of the airfield," Detroit airport spokesman Mike Conway tells CBS Detroit."One's at the intersection of two taxiways and the other's at the intersection of a taxiway and a runway."
RELATED:Misery index remains high for fliers on Wednesday
Detroit TV stationWXYZ reports the planes have "since been towed out of the way and should no longer cause delays."
What caused the jets to become stuck? Delta spokesman Morgan Durrant tells WDIV TV of Detroit one of the jet's wings clipped a snow bank and then became stuck. The other had its front tire slip off the taxiway, where it became lodged in snow.
And on Tuesday evening, a Southwest Airlines jet got stuck in drifting snow at Missouri's Kansas City International Airport.
Southwest Flight 305 was taxiing toward a gate after arriving from Denver at the time of the incident, according to The Associated Press. There were 55 passengers on the plane.

Passengers were taken off the Boeing 737 and into the terminal on buses. No injuries were reported.
Southwest spokeswoman Whitney Eichenger tells Today in the Sky the snow was cleared and that the aircraft eventually arrived to a gate around 7:30 p.m. local time.
The incidents come as heavy snow and icy weather have made a mess of flight schedules in Kansas City, Detroit and elsewhere.
Nationwide, more than 7,000 flights have been grounded nationwide since Sunday, the result of a major winter storm that has moved across airports from the Rockies to New England.
