We can't talk about us without talking about you. So on this page, you'll find out…
- What you're going to get out of working with us.
- Why your staff will enjoy training with us.
- Why you'll find our approach to epilepsy training different from every other training provider.
Epilepsy Awareness Ltd – our mission
Epilepsy Awareness Ltd works nationally to improve the lives and opportunities of vulnerable people with epilepsy. We know that one of the best ways of improving the lives of people with epilepsy is to train the people who work with them.
But, we also know that box-ticking training courses don't work…
So when you or your staff come on one of our courses, you'll enjoy an informative, educational and, above all, interesting course.
Working with us won't just give you the technical understanding you need – to help you identify seizures or administer Epistatus© or Buccolam© midazolam, it will help you understand, empathise and offer respectful care to people with epilepsy.
"So interesting. More in-depth than any I have attended."
"Very helpful to have a trainer with previous experience of epilepsy."
"Gave me a really good insight into how someone with epilepsy feels."
"I knew nothing about epilepsy, now I feel comfortable working around epilepsy."
A: Sally Gomersall!
There's no one better qualified to talk to you or your staff about epilepsy. Sally developed temporal lobe epilepsy when she was 15-months old. In spite of ongoing anti-epileptic drug treatment, she had uncontrolled seizures into her young adulthood.
Sally's seizures would have continued throughout her whole life if she hadn't been able to access optimal NHS treatment:
"I asked for a referral to a specialist epilepsy centre where I knew there was a multi-disciplinary team that specialised in the treatment of adults with complex epilepsy. Within nine months of seeing the specialist team all my seizures were stopped; my life and that of my family were changed forever for the better.
"Throughout my life with seizures the lack of public knowledge and understanding of my condition became increasingly apparent; sometimes people were fearful of me. I wanted to reduce the fear of epilepsy and increase understanding."
That's why Sally created Epilepsy Awareness Ltd. In 1998, two years after her treatment, she secured a start-up grant and put her unique insight to the best possible use – improving understanding of epilepsies and epilepsy care.
Sally is passionate about promoting better access to specialist NHS treatment.
"Had I not known about the specialist team or I'd not been so articulate, I probably would have not received the referral that changed my life. I want to reduce the inequity in access to specialist epilepsy centres for people with learning disability and epilepsy"
Sally was nominated by the epilepsy voluntary sector to represent people with epilepsy, their families and carers at the first ever Epilepsy Guideline Development Group on behalf of the National Institute for Clinical Excellence. With Sally's help, the guidance and the update have led to better access to specialist centres for people with difficult to control seizures.

Good Friday to all! I'm sure most of you are as pumped for the weekend as I am. Anything fun planned? To kick off your weekend I bring to you a X-Men'esque ad for Skoda. According to this spot, all Skoda cars are built through some bad arse machinery (as seen by the laser above). Never driven a Skoda myself, but from this ad it appears I should be! What do you guys think? Anyways, I hope everyone has a great weekend and look out for more great posts next week!
~Until Next Time~

The classic drink of the Straits, Slung, Slang, Singapore Sling
Ok, a confession, I didn't have a Singapore Sling in Singapore; not only that, I didn't have it at the famed Long Bar of the Raffles Hotel. That concoction (recipe varies) isn't my idea of a good drink.
I'd also heard they were really pricey at the Long Bar (not that most everything in Singapore is pricey).
I was tempted and peaked in, but the time wasn't quite right (yes, I do know that it's 5 o'clock somewhere).
So, in any case, looks like the Singapore Sling will have to carry on without me!

Biz Buzz: Tio Alberto's reopens after fire risk is fixed
Tio Alberto's, a Mexican restaurant in downtown San Luis Obispo, reopened last weekend after an 18-day closure stemming from a fire hazard issue determined by city and county officials.
The business, at 1131 Broad St., fixed its roof venting system after San Luis Obispo County inspectors, along with the city Building and Fire departments, found that it had been spraying grease onto the roof.
"It was piled up a couple inches thick," said John Callahan, San Luis Obispo fire chief.
The business was told to stop cooking on Oct. 21 until the equipment was fixed, officials said. The venting system over the kitchen hood appeared to have been modified, or "jury-rigged," to move air through, Callahan said.
Tio Alberto's owner, Alberto Hernandez, said that the equipment was old and needed to be replaced.
Officials followed up with a joint inspection of the restaurant on Nov. 6 and approved the fixes, said Brad Prior, county environmental health specialist.
The authorities were tipped off when someone from a neighboring business saw the grease while on a nearby roof, Callahan said.
The eatery, known for its late-night crowds, lost about $50,000 while its doors were closed, Hernandez said. A sign was posted on the window during those weeks saying the business had temporarily closed.
"Lots of people have been coming by saying, 'Oh no. Tio's is closed forever,' " Hernandez said. "But we're not. We're open now and serving burritos like always."
A history of Tio Alberto's and other local restaurant county health inspection reports can be found at www.slocounty.ca.gov under the "Restaurant/Grocery Store/Market Inspection Results Search" link.

Strategic Astrology
Pocket Almanacs
Martial Arts and the Art of Reading Transits
By A. Leo, Jr.
What do you do once you've discovered that your natal chart is surprisingly accurate?
Hopefully, you are not like one Virgo schoolteacher that I met. This singular, and single, lady was the only client whose fee I have ever had to refund. She complained bitterly that my interpretation of her chart did not describe her at all. Her chart contained a Virgo stellium that I read to be detail - oriented and demanding.
The reading took place at a setting similar to a psychic fair, and, after she left in a huff, several of her friends started laughing. They quickly informed me that I had described her perfectly, and they thought that she probably couldn't stand what she had heard….
A natal chart tells us who we are. But don't we already know that?
Can astrology be of any benefit beyond the most obvious?
Of course it can.
J. P. Morgan is reputed to have used astrology in a fashion that can only be described as "strategic" and "tactical." How can astrology be used to benefit one's day-to-day affairs?
The system described in this series of articles has been in development since December 1987. At that time a mentor of mine introduced me to transits, (the current placement of the planets in the sky and how they are affecting your individual birth chart), with Jim Maynard's Astrologer's Datebook.
Up to that point, I had only been familiar with natal charts. I was visiting my teacher in Nashville, and I asked how to use the date book. He said I needed to read it every day and analyze each aspect carefully. And as I lived the aspect, to observe what has happening around me and make notes. He indicated that, over time, the aspects would teach me their meanings. I kept my interest to myself, but did as my friend had recommended. And I learned.
(At the Cosmic Path web site, these daily aspects can be quickly and easily located on the Weekly Weather Report page.)
Many books and many charts later, I've learned that the analysis of aspects can be remarkably and powerfully educational in terms of daily tactics and overall strategies. I am an avid fan of martial arts (as well as a tepid practitioner), and I've learned a model that applies to astrology as well. I would like to share it with you.
Martial Arts as a Model for Interpretation: The Four Ranges of Combat
In the Tao of Jeet Kune Do, Bruce Lee speaks of four ranges of combat. I've modified, slightly, his original descriptions to these: kicking & weapons, punching (traditional karate style), punching & trapping (wing chun style), and grappling.
The Outermost Range: Kicking and Some Weapons
At the level of kicking and most weapons other than knives, the action tends to be relatively slow. Some kickers might object to that, but relatively speaking, it is true.
The Range of the Chambered Punch
At the next range, a karate master may "chamber" his punch to develop power that can, for example, shatter hundreds of pounds of ice. Although most karate masters will say, "speed is the essence of karate," chambered punches often can be seen, anticipated, and blocked.
The Blinding Speed of Trapping Range
Much faster than either of those two levels is trapping range. Here, almost all experts describe the technique as an "energy" that one feels rather than sees. This is the range of Tai Chi's "push hands" and Wing Chun's "sticky hands." Miss a beat here, and a punch you never see will deck you.
Grappling Range: Operating by "Feel"
Even faster is grappling range: the range of wrestling, Judo, and jujitsu. Movements here are virtually entirely by "feel" and are totally different from the other levels. Here, punches and kicks simply don't happen; throws, sweeps, locks, and pressure points predominate.
The Four Ranges of Strategic Astrology
The use of astrology for strategy and tactics parallels the four ranges of Jeet Kune Do. The four ranges of strategic astrology are:
General Unfolding
The outermost range is that of a "general unfolding." Much like the first level of Jeet Kune Do, the general unfolding is a way of watching the planetary cycles that take place over the course of a lifetime.
Personal Unfolding
The next range is that of a "personal unfolding," which deals with generational cycles and the placements of the outer planets in the birth chart. This second level is akin to the punching range of the karate master.
Annual Cycle
Just like the trapping range, the third range, that of the annual cycle, happens much faster and requires the capacity to 'feel' the daily movements of the planets and how they are affecting your chart.
SUMO (Strategic Use of Multiple Oracles)
And the fourth range, similar to grappling, is loosely based on the monthly cycle of the moon as seen from the vantage point of days and weeks. It also can oncorporate the use of daily oracles. More specifically, my method of analysis for this fourth range is called the Strategic Use of Multiple Oracles (or SUMO).
Next: General Unfoldment.

The field of internet marketing has come a long way since a website and search engine optimization was enough. The list of internet marketing technologies and ideas seems almost endless these days with more and more technologies being added to the list. Social media, SEO, content marketing, digital marketing, landing pages, QR codes and ad re-targeting, are just some of the ways you can leverage the power of the internet to help you market your brand and build your organization or improve your career prospects. So how do you know what internet marketing training is best for you or what internet marketing training you should invest in? The bottom line is that irrespective of all the new technologies and platforms available, marketing is still marketing. This means that the basics of marketing techniques will apply irrespective of the technology. At the end of the day, marketing is about creating relationships, providing valuable content, telling people about a service of product they need, and thinking outside the box. For a course on the fundamentals of marketing including the role of marketing in business, check out the Marketing Principles – Option B course. This course offers over fifty lectures that will show you the role marketing plays in the economic system. It will teach you how to develop a marketing strategy. It covers the fundamentals of ensuring the right marketing mix for your organization and it will take you through the steps of creating a marketing strategy for a specific customer or organization.
If you are interested in improving your marketing skills through an internet marketing training course, then there are a number of aspects you can consider to ensure you select the right type of training course for your needs.
1. Choose a course suitable for the size of your organization
2. Choose a course suitable for your location
3. Choose a course that is suitable for your requirements
Choosing Marketing Training Based on the Size of Your Organization
The size and type of marketing campaign you need is to a large extent determined by or even limited by, the size of your organization and the size of your marketing budget. A startup cannot afford the same type of marketing campaign as a multinational corporation. So it is important to bear that in mind when selecting the right internet marketing campaign for your organization. A campaign based on AdWords may be great for organizations with a large advertising budget but for some startups, spending a few hundred dollars a day may be beyond their current budget and more cost effective campaigns like social marketing campaigns or Pinterest campaigns may be more practical.
It is important when considering training to include the cost of the training, as well as including the cost of the software that may be required for the campaign itself. Internet video marketing on YouTube for example, may be free, but buying a program to create videos like VideoScribe or PowToon may cost a fair amount, so it's important to factor in any software that may be needed into the campaign before you sign up for a particular internet marketing course. You should also consider the time required by the course you intend to invest in. Certain types of marketing are far more labor intense than others, and a content creation course could for example require extra staff for your organization. These costs should be considered before you select and sign up for the course.
If you are a startup with a severely limited budget, then a course like the Small Business Internet Marketing course offers some marketing ideas for small companies. This course is designed to teach small business owners how to leverage the power of the internet to increase sales. It will show you how to take advantage of several online tools and platforms to do the work for you and how to invest your time so that your efforts have an effect for years to come. You will learn how to position yourself as the leader in your marketplace and how to gain credibility with your customers. The course highlights tactics that will help you increase your exposure without increasing your workload.
Choosing an Internet Marketing Training Course for Local Marketing
The internet is no longer just a "world wide web" but has entered and expanded local marketing opportunities for small business owners. With the advent of local search marketing and smartphones with geolocation and other location based technology and apps, the world wide web has now become a viable option for reaching a localized target market. For local businesses the prospect of using platforms like Facebook and search engines for marketing purposes, has become far more viable with the advent of geolocation type technology. In fact, local customers are starting to rely on local internet marketing far more than before to help them find local products and services. Now is the ideal time for small business to take an internet marketing training course on how to leverage the power of local internet marketing in their businesses.
If you own a local small business, then the Internet Marketing for Local Businesses course may be just the type of internet marketing training course you should be investing in. This course offers over thirty lectures that will teach you how to use local, mobile and social marketing to help you create brand awareness for your small business. The course will show you what local search marketing is and how to apply it to your business. It will teach you how to develop a local marketing strategy that suits your business. It will take your through the steps of creating and deploying a mobile marketing strategy. It also covers the process required to set up a social media strategy and how to deploy local social media strategies to improve your business.
Choosing Internet Marketing Training for Possible Career Opportunities
Although there has been some recovery from the global economic crisis, job security or finding a job is by no means easy during the current economic climate. The right internet marketing training course could help you create an income stream to help you supplement your current income. There are thousands of people who have leveraged the power of the internet to create a second income stream to supplement their monthly income. The right Internet Marketing Training course is almost essential if you intend to build a business for yourself using the internet and the power of internet marketing. Marketing opportunities abound on the internet, from affiliate marketing opportunities to marketing your own digital products. It is important to choose a training course that suits your goals and strategies.
If you are new to internet marketing, then affiliate marketing is a good place to start. If you want to learn about affiliate marketing, then join hundreds of students who have enrolled in the Affiliate Marketing For Noobs course. This course will teach you what affiliate marketing is and how to get involved in affiliate marketing. It will show you various ways to advertise online. The course teaches you how to select the right offers to promote and how to write effective adverts for those products. Finally, the course will teach you to split test adverts to help ensure your online marketing success.
If you are interested in a career in marketing or advertising, then an internet marketing training course could help you expand your marketing skills making you a more attractive candidate to prospective employers. The demand for marketing staff with knowledge and training in various internet marketing technologies is increasing at a fast rate and a course in social media marketing, for example, could well be the edge you need to secure your career in internet marketing.
If you are considering an internet marketing course for career purposes, try the Certificate of social media marketing and management. This course offers over 150 lectures and successful completion of the course results in students receiving a 'Certificate of social media management' issued by the SO ME Academy. The course teaches students all about social media management. You will be able to audit an organization's social media marketing campaign with a view to improving their strategy. You will learn how to set up social media profiles and how to use them in your marketing strategies. You will understand the foundations of Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Google+, LinkedIn and Pinterest and how to use these platforms to support your marketing campaigns. The course will show you how to leverage content and content creation to improve your marketing efforts. You will also understand the difference between good and bad social media responses and how to develop best practices for your social media campaigns.
Start Learning Today
The fact is that internet marketing is here to stay and as new technologies develop, the field of internet marketing is set to expand. By investing in internet marketing training today, you open the doors to your future, whether you are interested in learning marketing for your business or whether you are learning marketing for your potential future career growth. In my honest opinion, any money spent on training today is an investment in your future tomorrow and therefore money well spent.

Aviation Museum
The Aviation Museum of New Hampshire, located in Londonderry, welcomes all with an interest in the state's exciting history of aviation. Current exhibits cover the history of the airport during WWII and its growth into what is now the Manchester-Boston Regional Airport, as well as some of the more famous figures in New Hampshire aviation.
The exhibits showcase the people, places, events and artifacts that have helped form the history of aviation in New Hampshire. Visitors will also learn how the state's contributions have affected the United States' and the world's aviation history.
The Aviation Museum is also home to traveling exhibits, such as the Wings of Freedom Tour. This special nationwide tour showcases historical, authentically restored fighter planes as they touch down in Londonderry each year. Visitors can step inside the planes for a low price, or can pay to take a flight with these historical machines.
The museum recently received a million dollar donation from Eugene and Slusser, of Hopkinton, New Hampshire. The couple announced their donation in September of 2009 and the museum broke ground for a 4,000 square foot addition the following spring. The addition, which will have its grand opening May of 2011, will provide more space for the museum's displays, as well as a classroom, gift shop, library and meeting space.
The Aviation Museum of New Hampshire is operated by the non-profit New Hampshire Aviation Historical Society. It is currently located in the 1937 art deco building that once was the Manchester Airport Airline terminal. The building was moved from the airport to its present location in Londonderry, adjacent to the airport viewing area off of East Perimeter Road.
For more information about the Aviation Museum here in Londonderry, visit the New Hampshire Aviation Historical Society website. Stop in the museum at 13 East Perimeter Road, Londonderry. Browse this map for more detailed directions.

On Friday, YA author L.R. Giles published a post explaining to his readers why he's been incognito as of late. The post, if you ask me, was actually full of good news: Giles signed with HarperCollins and his YA mystery will be published soon. In addition to that, he has already completed two novels that aren't contracted to HarperCollins, but he must show them to his lit and film agents before anyone else.
"I'm not complaining," Giles says of his good fortune. "I just want to explain why you, the loyal readers who have supported LIVE AGAIN, THE DARKNESS KEPT, and THE SHADOWS GALLERY, haven't seen a new book from me in over a year."
I salute and congratulate the brother on his publishing contract. I know that it was a lifelong dream for the brother, and his talent will take him far. But reading his story makes me wonder if I'd ever sign a contract should one of the Big Six approach me.
Giles talks about how he essentially worked as a one-man band: he was writer, editor, cover designer, and marketer. I certainly get that; I either played or am currently playing those roles myself with GUESTLIST. And, like Giles, I enjoy knowing I have complete creative control and can get material out as fast as I can write it.
But now that he's working under a major publisher, Giles is "not even a small cog in their machine." By his own admission, he says he'll "have to work [his] butt off to be even a low priority there."
I'm also reminded of another author, the über-talented Aliya S. King. I very much enjoyed her debut novel Platinum and looked forward to its sequel Diamond Life. Then one day, Aliya tweeted the cover to Diamond Life. Not only had her publisher decided against a hardcover first-run, the novel's cover art had that stereotypical "hood lit" aesthetic, with emphasis on jewels, luxury whips, and a girl's fat bootie. Imagine a book cover designed by Pen & Pixel during their No Limit halcyon days.
Aliya was, to put it mildly, unhappy. She expressed her frustration on Twitter, speaking on not having much input or control over what the publishers decide. I asked her if she ever thought of going the indie publishing route, but she said she could never do it as it would require too much time and work.
The time and work would be worth it, in my opinion. Like all artists, I need to ensure that my work is delivered to the public as unmolested as possible. That means the way I envision it – not some team of corporate monkeys who in all likelihood do not give any fucks about my vision.
And if there's money to be made in this endeavor, I deserve the lion's share. After all, I am the brains of the whole shebang. I want to rack up an Amanda Hocking-like fortune before I even think about signing any big publisher's contract.

The Health Benefits of using organically grown products to build our mattresses, pillows, and bedding without the added chemicals and toxic glues makes a huge difference in our clients lives. Due to the fact we use pure materials our non-toxic wool and cotton mattresses in Long Island last 10-20 years instead of the 3-7 years like most traditional mattress. Most people find us because they already had a bad experience purchasing a mattress. Our mission is to get our information out there so our future clients don't have to go through that bad experience first. Learn about the health benefits of the non-toxic cotton and wool mattress materials we use to build our mattresses below…
Organic Cotton Field
Conventional cotton production has a devastating environmental impact. Not only is 20% of the worlds pesticides and 25% of the world's insecticides used to grow cotton but enormous quantities of chlorine, toxic dyes and finishing chemicals are used to then process it. That's why we believe using organic cotton is so important – to protect you, your family, and our environment. Organic cotton is grown without the use of GMO's, pesticides, herbicides, etc. and produces no off-gassing. Choosing organic cotton really makes a difference. Organic cotton is grown without the use of GMOs, pesticides, hermaicides, etc. and produces no off-gassing. Organic cotton is soft, breathable and comfortable next to your skin. It is great for people with chemical sensitivities or allergies. We offer organic cotton mattresses, pillows, duvet inserts/covers, and sheets.
The Rubber Tree Forest
Our All Natural Latex comes directly from the sap of rubber trees. There are two processes that turns this liquid sap into a solid – one is the Dunlop Process and the second one is the Talalay Process.
All Natural Dunlop latex, which is often compared to pound cake, has been made the same way since the 1920s. The thick rubber sap, or serum, is whipped into a froth in a centrifuge, poured into a mold, covered, and steam baked. Natural sediments in the mixture settle to the bottom of the mold. This makes every Dunlop layer slightly firmer on its bottom side. Although processing methods have advanced, this is foam rubber made the way it used to be, before synthetic (and toxic) chemicals were substituted for natural rubber serum. Dunlop is the densest natural latex, and is available in a range of firmnesses. Dunlop is yielding beneath the body, but not "bouncy." For people who need a comfortable, reliable sleeping surface, it's ideal. People with nerve-related back pain particularly appreciate Dunlop's consistent, stable support. Softer Dunlop layers at the top of a mattress can cushion gently, while medium and/or firm layers below offer as much support as desired. Because Dunlop is less processed than Talalay, it is less expensive. This makes it a popular choice for multiple uses, including beds for children, guests, or for anyone who prefers to avoid a pillowy or "sinking" mattress feel.
All natural Talalay latex is the most luxurious natural latex and often compared to angel food cake. The Talalay process adds two steps. After the latex is poured, the mold is sealed and the process is continued in a vacuum chamber. The mold is then flash-frozen before it's baked. Talalay latex has a more consistent cell structure from top to bottom and edge to edge and a more supple feel. It is also more expensive than Dunlop. Talalay is available in a full range of firmnesses, from very soft to very firm. Because of its unique cell structure, it also has a naturally "springy" character that makes it super responsive, pressure relieving and supremely comfortable. Soft natural Talalay has a cradling feel that some compare to that of memory foam. Although Talalay conforms wonderfully to body contours, its unique cell structure also means it has a built-in natural buoyancy. This allows the foam to provide durable support along with comforting pressure relief. With Talalay, luxurious comfort also means no sacrifice in reliable, stable support for the spine. Unlike conventional synthetics, natural Talalay is one of the most breathable latex foams. Sleepers can enjoy the comfort of Talalay's extra-responsive performance without the uncomfortable heat buildup that makes most foams unpleasant to sleep on. Watch how it works.
All natural latex is dust mite repellent, hypoallergenic, mold and mildew resistant, and antimicrobial. Perhaps one of the very best health benefits that owners of natural latex mattresses report is that your spine is aligned all night long as you sleep. Natural latex contours to your body. It offers the best of comfort and support. It is so resilient, that you are guaranteed not to get indentations that are common with other mattresses. Natural latex gives you a nice amount of springiness, or kickback (unlike memory foam), it changes shape as you change sleeping positions. So, all night long you will be able to experience comfort and support, while easing the tension on any pressure points or injuries that you may have along the whole course of your body. Natural latex foam is noted for its excellent pressure point reduction and back pain relief. In fact, these beds are wonderful for arthritis sufferers, as well as those who have fibromyalgia, other pain related syndromes, sports injuries, and the like. Because the mattress is not made up of harmful chemicals, there is no off gassing of noxious fumes. The only "smell" that the owner of a new natural latex mattress may detect is a faint, sweet vanilla-type of smell or rubber. And because of the solid latex core (usually Dunlop), latex mattresses rarely if ever have problems with bed bugs as do other mattresses that have a lot of open space in the mattress core. The allergen-causing proteins that some people are allergic to get washed out in the process of producing the end latex foam mattress product. We use all natural latex in many of our mattresses, toppers, and pillows.
Our Happy Bliss Sheep Wool
100% Organic or 100% Pure Virgin Wool – The wool batting, acts as a natural flame retardant, which allows our manufactures to meet federal fire safety requirements with no chemical flame retardants. Wool is hypoallergenic – it is a natural dust-mite repellant, it is resistant to bacteria, mold and mildew which can trigger allergic reactions in some people. It also helps regulates your body temperature. The wool in our products are covered with organic cotton so it will not cause a skin irritation for people who are allergic to wool by touch. The untreated pure wool wicks away moisture during hot months and keeps your body warm during cold months. Wool doesn't develop hot or cold spots, so you'll shift and turn less while sleeping. Wool is plush without "poofiness", so even a light layer keeps you comfortable. Wool is a remarkably versatile fiber. It has comfort, style, texture, coolness, resilience, wrinkle recovery, drape, elasticity, absorption, tenacity and warmth, our wool is an important part of our non-toxic cotton and wool mattresses Long Island.
Our Kapok
Kapok is harvested in the rainforest, kapok is soft to the touch like down, yet provides support in a way not even synthetic materials can match. Kapok does not absorb moisture so it is mold and mildew resistant. Kapok makes a great pillow that is resilient, conforms to your head and neck, and is great for side sleepers. It is hypoallergenic which makes it a great alternative to down. The harvesting of the kapok pods provides jobs to indigenous people and helps maintain this vanishing ecosystem. Every Ceiba (Kapok) tree left standing is a step towards the preservation of the rain forest. Kapok is our #1 selling pillow.
Our Buckwheat Hulls
100% Organic Buckwheat Hulls grown in the US – Buckwheat hulls move with you as you sleep conforming to the contours of your head and neck while providing gentle support. Buckwheat allows air to flow through your pillow naturally – keeping your head cool and dry. It is hypoallergenic and great for people with neck and back pain. It makes the perfect pillow.
Our Mulberry Silk
Mulberry Silk comes from the spun cocoons of silkworms that have only eaten mulberry leaves, and it's like a super food for these little guys. One hundred percent long-stand mulberry silk is the only way to go and creates a superior silk. It produces a longer, wider, more durable thread than wild silk. Naturally pure and tightly woven, silk repels live allergens, such as bed mites, as well as dust, pollen and other airborne allergens. Silk is therefore naturally hypoallergenic and great for people who have allergies that affect their breathing and skin. Silk can help ease flaky, dry or itchy skin. It is a great solution for eczema sufferers or if you have sensitive or easy-irritated skin. Silk contains a natural protein and essential amino acid, which makes it a natural, skin-friendly material. Sleeping with silk will keep your hair naturally soft, moisturized and tangle-free. Our all natural silk fabric keeps moisture close to your skin so you wake up with your face feeling naturally hydrated. What we love about that… is plump skin cells show fewer lines and wrinkles which means you'll wake up looking and feeling radiant.

text: So difficult child has been going about his business-sleeping at the homeless shelter, getting random drug tests, breathalyzers twice a day. Has a job at a call center that is willing to hire felons. Hasn't started it and doesn't have any intention of doing so. Just doesn't want that life. He has also been abusing prescription drugs that he was given by doctors AND by other guys in the shelter, just for kicks. Everyone in the shelter does it, apparently. Gets a kick out of fooling the professionals in the community mental health program. Did drugs in jail-I was foolishly unaware of this until I went to visit him in Colorado in July. So he really hasn't been sober for months but has been pretty convincing so probably not a lot of people knew. Because he has a diagnosis of Schizoaffective disorder ( I think he's a sociopath) he is conniving and manipulative and if he DOES think he is under suspicion, he will ramp up the paranoia (mostly acting, but some truth to it.) and get off scot -free. He kept saying he was losing it and hated the life he was leading. Sick of the drugs, the poverty and hopelessness. I told him he was the only one who could change it. He is on 3 years probation and I have never thought he would make it that long. Yesterday he called and said he was in a bad place and was thinking of relapsing. We had a long chat and he said that he understood the possible consequences (prison) but accepted them because he hated being sober. I insisted that he acknowledged the responsibility of his actions. He went back to his friend's house. This morning I texted him to see how/where he was. He told me that he was on his way to the Mexican border with a buddy and they couldn't remember how they got there. I went ballistic at his stupidity. Then he told me he was joking and never thought I would fall for that joke. I was appalled at his cruelty. He told me that he was, however, that he was going on the run. Not leaving the state, but essentially going to stay with a friend who was in a house where he wouldn't be found. Didn't want to conform and prison didn't really scare him as much, as he would rather do time and get it over with than be tied to a probation he couldn't adhere to. So now, yet again, I have to adjust or really retrain my brain to understand the nature of my son. He and I keep having to come to the realization that it is HIS life, HIS choices and MY life and MY choices. The twain do NOT have to meet. Not sure what I'm asking for. Just processing as I write. Feel a weariness that I have to keep dissecting my attitudes and philosophy towards the whole situation and that I will have to worry about what will happen. Not excessively or obsessively, but just that nagging feeling that it will still mostly go pear-shaped. But it probably would have done anyway... Am never going to be free of this. But with that knowledge also comes a deeper level of acceptance and that is kind of liberating. Does that make sense to anyone? He is going to live his life in this criminal and reckless state until it stops or he changes -for better or worse. And so I must live mine in my own way. Sorry this was such a novel. Thanks to anyone who got this far. Let the re-learning begin!

My question is this - given a New Zealand based and owned company - if you submit and permit them to store your information (within x server, and/or x database) and then later change your mind and decide to revoke your permission; what must that company do with your information - if anything?
This is assuming you submit a request to have your information scrubbed from their database and servers and any/all backups and no longer use their services if that is what their terms and conditions state.
I'm currently poking about in the Legislation site and am not having a lot of luck figuring this out on my own. Anyone have a pointer to where I can read more?

Some things never change.adactio.com/journal/1129twitter.com/paulg/status/6…
I'm sitting in a big room at XTech 2006 listening to Paul Graham talk about why there aren't more start-ups in Europe. It's essentially a Thatcherite screed about why businesses should be able to get away with doing anything they want and treat employees like slaves.
In comparing Europe to the US, Guru Graham points out that the US has a large domestic market. Fair point. The EU — designed to be one big domestic market — suffers, he feels, by the proliferation of languages. However, he also thinks that it won't be long before Europe is all speaking one language — namely, his. In fact, he said
Even French and German will go the way of Luxembourgish and Irish — spoken only in kitchens and by eccentric nationalists.
What. A. Wanker.
Update: Just to clarify for the Reddit geeks, here's some context. I'm from Ireland. I speak Irish, albeit not fluently. I'm calling Paul Graham a wanker because I feel personally insulted by his inflammatory comment about speakers of the Irish language. I'm not insulted by his opinions on start-ups or economics or language death — although I may happen to disagree with him. I'm responding as part of the demographic he insulted. If he just said the Irish language will die out, I wouldn't have got upset. He crossed a line by insulting a group of people — a group that happened to include someone in the audience he was addressing — instead of simply arguing a point or stating an opinion. In short, he crossed the line from simply being opinionated to being a wanker.

Today was a very sad day, as those who loved Denzil the most had to say our final goodbyes.
Denzil was the most joyful, joy-giving dog we've ever known.
He gave The Husband and I the joy of raising our first puppy.
He gave me the joy of handling a dog who loved to bark with enthusiasm in the rally ring and frap instead of work during brace obedience.
He gave The Small Human the joy of canine friendship, and empathetic howling whenever The Small Human would cry.
And for the last 4+ years of his life, he lived with, loved, and spread joy to my parents and grandparents.
We'll miss you, Denz.

Starting in 2015, every egg sold in California will have to comply with strict hen-rights rules. Cages will have to be large enough for the birds to stand up, lie down and spread their wings without touching each other or the sides of the cage. California voters adopted these rules for in-state egg producers two years ago. Last week, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed a law that extended the rules to out-of-state producers who want to sell their eggs in California.
The move was just the latest example of how animal rights are on the march in the U.S. and much of the rest of the world. Even as human rights seems to have taken a few hits of late with the U.S. government endorsing harsh interrogation techniques, also known as torture, and the Supreme Court whittling away at race-discrimination laws, defendants' rights and the Voting Rights Act animal rights has moved further into the mainstream.
This enthusiasm for animal rights is also fueling a national movement to rein in the chaining of dogs, a practice animal-rights advocates regard as cruel and dangerous for the dog. Thirteen states now have laws that limit the chaining or tethering of dogs outside, such as to a metal pole or a tree. Several more states are considering such laws, which impose restrictions like requiring that chains be of a minimum length. Animal-rights activists have also been targeting foie gras in recent years because it is made by force-feeding ducks and geese in a way that many consider to be cruel. California has banned force-feeding to create foie gras, and Hawaii is currently considering banning the sale of the delicacy.
Animal-law courses are now taught at many of the nation's leading law schools. Harvard Law School recently hosted a "Future of Animal Law" conference sponsored by the Animal Legal Defense Fund. A prime financial backer of the rise of animal law is Bob Barker, the longtime host of the game show The Price Is Right and a prominent animal-rights advocate. He has given $1 million gifts to the University of Virginia Law School, Columbia Law School and Duke Law School among others to endow animal-law programs. (Barker is also funding a $1 million campaign to stop live-pigeon shoots in Pennsylvania.)
It was not long ago that animal rights was all but an oxymoron. With few exceptions, you could do what you wanted to an animal and it seemed bizarre to argue otherwise. Then, in the 1970s, animal-liberation activists followed in the footsteps of the civil-rights movement, the women's liberation movement and the gay-rights movement, and argued that "species-ism" was wrong and had to be defeated.
If Barker is one of the financial leaders of the animal-rights movement, its intellectual leader is Peter Singer, a Princeton professor of bioethics, whose 1975 book Animal Liberation is often credited with giving birth to the modern movement. Singer and others have laid out the philosophical groundwork for regarding animals as deserving of greater respect and legal protection. (Singer, however, is not an absolutist: on a FAQ on his Princeton website, he allows that if a fire was threatening a human and a mouse and he could only save one, he would save the human.) Animal-rights supporters have even dug deep and discovered a little-known history of anticruelty laws, dating back to a 1635 Irish statute prohibiting pulling wool off of sheep (rather than shearing it) and pulling horses by their tails.
Important as these intellectual underpinnings are, what is driving the animal-rights movement today is simple: a surprisingly strong level of popular support. When California's egg referendum was on the ballot in 2008, it won in a landslide, taking more than 63% of the vote.
Europe is still far ahead of the U.S. in recognizing animal rights. Spain's parliament caused a stir two years ago when it passed a resolution calling for legal rights to be extended to nonhuman primates a law that Singer declared to be of "world historical significance." The resolution urged that chimpanzees, gorillas and other primates have the right not to be used in medical experiments or circuses.
Yet even Europe has its limits. Switzerland has a 160-page animal-rights law with some of the world's stiffest rules for the treatment of nonhumans, including the minimum amount of space that Mongolian gerbils must be given (1,500 sq cm) and a ban on keeping social animals, like goldfish, alone. In March, however, Swiss voters soundly defeated a referendum that would have created a state-funded system of lawyers to represent animals in court. Animals in Zurich remain in luck, however, since that canton has its own law giving animals legal representation.
In the U.S., the animal-rights movement remains on the upswing, and it is not only on the East and West Coasts. This month, Governor Ted Strickland of Ohio a major farm state brokered a deal between the Farm Bureau and the Humane Society. In exchange for the farm group's commitment to work toward a list of tough new animal-rights laws including phasing out a particularly harsh kind of crate for pregnant sows and banning the strangulation of pigs and cows the Humane Society is holding back on its plans to put an anticruelty referendum on the ballot this November.
If animal rights can make it in Ohio, it can probably make it anywhere and that is a good thing. Like any worthy cause, animal rights can be taken too far, and sometimes it is. (In a world full of woe, it is hard to get too worked up about the solitary goldfish.) But requiring animals, including animals that produce or become food, to be treated decently while they are alive ennobles not only the animals but us as well.

Mackerel eat copepod larvae, copepod eggs, adult copepod, small fish larvae, euphausiid shrimps, planktonic animals and pelagic Crustacea. Residents of many countries enjoy eating mackerel, but it is not a popular fish choice in the United States because it has a very strong flavor, especially when raw.
Mackerel are greedy fish when it comes to eating, and they will go for almost any bait that is used to lure them. They especially like bait like pieces of clam or small strips of mackerel belly skin. They also favor live bait because it moves. Mackerel have been known to eat their own species' eggs as well.
Mackerel eat through two different methods. The first involves eating the prey after seeing it. The second involves using the mackerel's gill rakers to gather prey. When this occurs, the prey goes straight to the mackerel's mouth to be swallowed.
The fish are not thought to eat much during the winter because fisherman have noticed for centuries that the fish are quite fat during the fall, but in the early spring they are gaunt. This is thought to be in part due to the mackerel's long migration. The mackerel is sensitive to water temperature changes and will migrate long distances each winter to find warmer waters.

After we left the Transylvanian village of Biertan, we have decided to take a short stop in the small village of Șaroș pe Târnave where another old fortified church is located. Unfortunately, I've captured some exterior shots of the church because it was closed to the public when we arrived there.
The entrance into the fortified church and the bastion
Here is a photo of the entrance into the fortified church but unfortunately it was closed. Close to the fortification walls we found a small path which leads to the back of the church and we've decided to follow that path.
The Lutheran church within the fortification walls
This photo was captured from the small path which leads to the back of the church. You can notice the Lutheran church inside the fortification walls.
A small part of the village in winter
This shot was captured next to the back of the Lutheran church, as you can see in the photo below, on that cold winter morning, the landscape was covered with snow. Despite of the winter cold morning, I saw a lot of activity in the small village.
Children playing in the snow
After capturing some photos, we were headed to the car and on our way back from the fortified church, I saw some children playing in the snow near the fortification walls.

There are no permanent trends, only permanent preparations
There is no shortage of pundits, experts, gurus and self-proclaimed prophets ready and willing to bombard us with dire forecasts of the future. There is really no specific good or bad news, it is our perspective of it that matters.
Right now, I'll be a doom-gloom prophet and tell you that right now there is a trend of dissent by the people towards their governments. People are choosing the "devil" they don't know rather than the "devil" they do know. We can see this from Brexit and the election results in the US. Perhaps people have become tired of the status quo politics with the corresponding graft and corruption.
Perhaps we can even trace the tipping point during the global economic meltdown which began in 2007; wherein government was supposed to fix the problem, and yet even now we are still seeing it's effects as some countries are still reeling from it like Italy, Germany, Spain which will also have upcoming elections which may cause some shockwaves around the world!
Humans by nature are pessimistic, expecting negative trends to continue based on the past and the present. Neither good times nor bad times last forever (Walang Forever!), but we always seem to ignore that fact.
As an investor, we have to constantly remind ourselves of this fact. Governments do not "Fully-control" the economy although they do have the ability to provide directions with regards to support and regulation. We also have to repeatedly tell ourselves that our current "Free Market Economy" is driven by economic forces of supply and demand. What matters most therefore is the attitude of businesses, and consumers.
"We will continue to ignore political and economic forecasts which are an expensive distraction for many investors and businessmen. Thirty years ago, no one could have foreseen the huge expansion of the Vietnam War, wage and price controls, two oil shocks, the resignation of a president, the dissolution of the Soviet Union, a one-day drop in the Dow of 508 points, or treasury bill yields fluctuating between 2.8% and 17.4%. But surprise: None of these blockbuster events made even the slightest dent in Ben Graham's investment principles. Nor did they render unsound the negotiated purchases of fine businesses at sensible prices. Imagine the cost to us, if we had let a fear of unknowns cause us to defer or alter the deployment of capital. Indeed, we have usually made our best purchases when apprehensions about some macro event were at a peak. Fear is the foe of the faddist, but the friend of the fundamentalist."
I believe investors obsess about things that although scary, do not have a direct long-term impact on their specific portfolios, but only their short-term attitudes about them. Of course there is still opportunity in the short term for traders for positioning.
To be invested in the long term, do not look at the chaos of politics but rather look at the state of health of the company stocks you own.
With Warren's statement, this truly reinforces my belief that there are no permanent trends, only permanent preparations.

This may be a pre-emptive strike, or me fulminating at windmills.
Since Congress is finally getting around to the Fiscal Year 2012 budget (six weeks after it started), some budget numbers are becoming clear. The National Science Foundation appears to be getting a small increase, and the National Institutes of Health will probably be lucky with flat funding (summary, subscription needed for full article).
But the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) will get a 32 percent cut. This represents about 2.2 million dollars (yeah, that's an m). The reason? The chief House Appropriations Committee member responsible for the budget for OSTP (Rep. Frank Wolf of Virginia) inserted language into the Fiscal Year 2011 spending bill forbidding OSTP and NASA from using money for cooperative activities with China. OSTP acknowledged participating in two dialogues with China in May, after the ban was made into law. The Administration claims the ban is an undue interference with the President's ability to conduct foreign policy. The amount of money spent? OSTP estimates it at roughly $3500. Just two zeros there. There is a similar ban in the 2012 budget bill, with some language allowing for more flexibility (and notice to Congress of various activities that might be covered under the ban).
So, this is a political fight over China, and what the Congress can do to the President's ability to conduct foreign affairs. Any claims that this is meant to undercut science, especially in light of no similar cuts in other agencies, isn't paying attention. Now, that could well be a result of this cut, but it's not the primary purpose. This is a more elemental power struggle. And another sign that the real challenges for support of science in the government is more priority than party.

I sprint in after putting yet another coat of paint on the soon-to-be steampunk Nerf guns, my thoughts racing with all the things I need to get done before the Halloween party tomorrow. Setting up the final playlist is a critical item I can knock off the list easily enough (I believe this will be version 4.0). I rush up the stairs to my office to complete the task, sit down at the computer, and think, "It's been a while since I posted on my blog."
For September, I finally did something that I've wanted to do for a while now. I attended my first Iaido seminar, the PNKF (Pacific Northwest Kendo Federation) 2012 Iaido Seminar & Tournament.
This was an amazing experience. This particular seminar was special in that there were a number of visiting instructors from Japan there to teach the sessions. I learned so much from these instructors and, as a fun bonus, got to work on my Japanese language skills as well since they were all using translators. I was even talked into participating in the team portion of the tournament on the second day. At the end of the weekend I was worn out and my head was spinning with new information. Time extremely well spent.
Since I don't have any photos of this (beyond the lovely group photo above) I also thought I would share some pictures from our September caving trip. This wasn't something new, but it's been a long time since I went on a good caving trip and we took someone along who was new to caving, so it's close enough.
Now back to the playlist and the painting.
Happy adventuring!

Dantley 'relaxed' just hours before playoff debut
The circumstances that have led Adrian Dantley to this moment were far from ideal. But he is here.
Dantley calls himself a substitute teacher, and that may be true as he fills in for head coach George Karl. But the course he's teaching is like college calculus — getting his team to win and advance in his first NBA playoffs in the head chair.
By all accounts, he's calm. In fact after his team's shootaround and film session this morning, Dantley was as worried about carving out enough time to get a haircut as anything else.
"I'm pretty relaxed," Dantley said. "It's another season. Hopefully the guys are ready to go tonight."
Dantley has a unique angle on this series from two fronts: First, he played for the Jazz, which makes this an emotional series for him. Second, he played for Utah at the same time Jerry Sloan and Phil Johnson were a part of the coaching staff. There are plays Sloan runs now that Dantley instantly recognizes. He's familiar with the system, which may be of benefit to him.
Dantley's phone lit up on Wednesday night when the Nuggets' matchup with Utah was finally determined.
"I had like 20 calls from people from Utah saying they were looking forward to me coming back," Dantley said. "It's like a second home to me. People treated me great there. I had a great time there. It's going to be kind of strange.
"It's like a funny dream. I'm looking forward to going back there. I know the fans will boo me and boo the team, but I think it's going to be a great series. Playing against a great coach."
That coach, Sloan, praised Dantley.
"I'm happy for him," Sloan said. "I hope things go well for him. He's a hard-working guy and has his opportunity to coach. I feel bad for George not being able to be here, but sometimes those things happen."
Dantley is focused in on his former team. Among his keys to ensure Nuggets success is stopping Utah's transition game.
The Jazz has a reputation of being a plodding, halfcourt basketball team, but nothing could be further from the truth this season. Utah is a high-scoring outfit, averaging 104.2 points per game, which ranked fourth in the league — right behind the Nuggets at No. 3.
"Utah is really at their best when they get their transition game going, on top of their halfcourt game," Dantley said. "Transition (defense) is key. Offensive rebounding, and (stopping) the pick-and-roll offense."

My graduate and postdoctoral training has impressed upon me the importance of understanding the molecular mechanisms of basic cell biological processes and their contribution to pathologies underlying human disease. As I prepare to transition into an independent research position, I'm compelled to acquire the additional technical skills and education that will enable me to gain research autonomy and develop an innovative basic research program addressing fundamental questions in cell and developmental biology. As a post-doctoral fellow with Elaine Fuchs at The Rockefeller University, I find myself in an ideal environment that will foster my continual growth as a scientist and mentor, and enable me to acquire additional technical expertise and generate research materials that will facilitate my future independent research endeavors. One fundamental question in developmental biology is how an individual cell may sense its environment to transmit extracellular signals that control cell signaling and proliferatin during tissue morphogenesis. This activation of developmental cell signaling pathways must be temporally and spatially regulated in order to balance tissue growth with differentiation. When this goes awry during normal tissue homeostasis, proliferative conditions such as polycystic kidney disease (PKD) and cancer arise. The long term objective of my proposal is to understand how primary cilia temporally and spatially regulate developmental signaling and cell proliferation during epidermal morphogenesis. The primary cilium is a microtubule-based cellular """"""""antenna"""""""" that can sense the extracellular environment, transmit developmental signals, and influence cell-cycle progression. Dysfunctional cilia result in human genetic diseases referred to as """"""""ciliopathies"""""""", and in diseases that precipitate the transition fro cellular quiescence to proliferation, such as PKD and cancer. Preliminary data indicate that primary cilia play at least two temporally and spatially distinct roles in balancing growth and differentiation during skin development: a novel, early role in epidermis, whose morphogenesis relies upon Notch signaling;and a later role in hair follicles, reliant upon Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) signaling. Although the reliance of Shh signaling on cilia is expected and well-characterized in other model systems, the molecular mechanisms underlying cilia-mediated control of Notch signaling and cell proliferation during epidermal morphogenesis are unknown. I hypothesize that spatial and temporal activation of Notch signaling and epidermal proliferation are directly regulated by primary cilia during normal skin development. To test this central hypothesis I will 1) Characterize the spatial and temporal localization and dynamics of notch signaling components at the primary cilia during cell division and differentiation. 2) Determine f known ciliary trafficking mechanisms regulate the localization, activation, and function of Notch signaling components during epidermal differentiation. 3) Identify the cell-cycle regulatory factors that function in cilia-mediated control of epidermal proliferation during skin differentiaton and hair follicle morphogenesis.
The primary cilium is a cellular antenna that can sense the extracellular environment, transmit developmental signals, and influence cell-cycle progression. Non-functional cilia contribute to proliferative diseases such as polycystic kidney disease and cancer, and cause a spectrum of genetic diseases called ciliopathies, which affect numerous organ systems and tissues. The diversity of organ systems affected in these human genetic diseases highlight the necessity to develop tissue-specific model systems, such as the skin, to study the function of primary cilia during differentiation, tissue morphogenesis, cell proliferatio and cancer.

Aim Race Studio Software Setup on Apple Mac Laptops and Desktops Computer
Aim Race Studio Software Setup on Apple Mac Laptops and Desktops Computer
Setting up Aim software with your Mac for data analysis is fairly easy once you know how.
The down side is you have to buy some software (unless you have a copy from an old PC)
First you will need to run the Mac in, Bootcamp mode or buy Parallels software.
Options to choose from…
Option 1 – Here is a link to how to set up Bootcamp https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT201468
Option 2 – Here is a link to set up Parallels – this has a slightly bigger outlay, but I feel is better once it's setup as you never need to shut down and re start your mac. http://kb.parallels.com/uk/4729
You can buy the Parallels software which is available in many places on the internet, but here is their link; https://www.parallels.com/uk/
With both options, you will need to get a copy of Microsoft Windows XP professional (cheaper) or Windows 10 now works well, here is the link http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows
The only time a problem could occur when using the virtualisation mode, is when updating the firmware.
Should this be the case, you have to start the Mac as a PC in Bootcamp for updating the firmware and everything functions properly.
The method you have to decide yourself, in the end it does not matter as Aim Software and RaceStudio works with them all.
Please note:
We are working on a Apple OS software version at the moment with no definate release date. We will post any changes to this on this page.
In the meantime, this method lets you use your mac os for now.

We closed on our home on August 3. At closing we received a Note, First Payment Letter and First Payment Coupons showing the first payment as October 1st. Our loan was purchased by a secondary lender on September 5th. We received a notice that the firstpayment was September 1. The lender is stating that a HUD-1shows the correct date, but there is not a date on that.Can the lender move up our first payment date a whole month when all of the documentation from closing states October 1st?
The short answer to your question is no, the new lender cannot do that, but you should be able to tell very easily by looking at your HUD 1 settlement statement.
In a mortgage, we live in the house for a month, and then our payment is due at the end of the month. For example, your June payment is due on July 1st.
Since mortgage lenders have decided to make a standard mortgage due date as the 1st of the month, they had to come up with a way to collect interest for the number of days you legally owned the home in the month you bought it. They could have done this by making the first payment occur on the first day of the month immediately following your closing month, but instead they use the "prepaid interest" system. Prepaid interest is the amount of money you pay for the remaining days in the current month at the time you close.
It's easier with an example. If you close on August 3rd, you should have been charged interest for the 28 days you'd be living in the house in August without making a payment. Then on October 1st, your first full payment would be due for September.
So the important thing to look for is whether or not you were charged for the 28 days of interest remaining in August. If so, it's simple math that no payment is due until September 1st.
In some cases, however, lenders do an " interest credit," where they actually have your first payment in less than 30 days. In this case, you would actually get a small credit for the number of days that have passed in the current month. If your lender listed your first payment as October 1st, it doesn't sound like an interest credit came into play here. The easy answer is to check the prepaid interest on your HUD and go from there.
