Sleep deprivation disrupts brain cell communication in much the same way as alcohol, research has shown.
Exhausted neurons respond more slowly than usual and take longer to transmit weaker signals, a study found.
Tired brain cells explain why a poor night's sleep is so likely to lead to memory lapses and poor concentration the next day, scientists believe.
Researchers tested 12 tired epileptic patients who had electrodes implanted into their brains to pinpoint the origin of their seizures.
Professor Itzhak Fried, from the University of California at Los Angeles, said: "We discovered that starving the body of sleep also robs neurons of the ability to function properly.
"This paves the way for cognitive lapses in how we perceive and react to the world around us.
"Inadequate sleep exerts a similar influence on our brain as drinking too much. Yet no legal or medical standards exist for identifying over-tired drivers on the road the same way we target drunk drivers."
The study participants were asked to stay awake all night to speed up the onset of an epileptic episode before undergoing surgery. Lack of sleep is known to trigger seizures in vulnerable individuals.
For the test, the patients had to categorise a variety of images as fast as possible while the implants recorded their brain activity.
Lack of sleep caused the neurons to respond to visual stimulus sluggishly, the scientists reported in the journal Nature Medicine. They also fired weakly and their transmissions dragged on longer than normal.
The same effects were likely to occur when a sleepy motorist notices a pedestrian stepping into the road, said the researchers.
Co-author Dr Yuval Nir, from Tel Aviv University in Israel, said: "The very act of seeing the pedestrian slows down in the driver's over-tired brain. It takes longer for his brain to register what he's perceiving."
The team also discovered "slow" brain waves similar to those that occur during sleep in tired regions of the brain. Brain waves are synchronised pulses of electrical activity generated by neurons.
"Slow sleep-like waves disrupted the patients' brain activity and performance of tasks," said Prof Fried. "This phenomenon suggests that select regions of the patients' brains were dozing, causing mental lapses, while the rest of the brain was awake and running as usual."

Mohau Pheko, South Africa's ambassador to Japan since January 2012, said Japan is a "technologically blessed" country that has been an important international trend-setter but now "faces the big challenge of elevating itself to the next level."
Citing growing competition with emerging powers, including China and South Korea, Pheko said Japan has to think of "what cost it is willing to pay — to move to the next level, and bring new innovations and ideas to the market."
"Japan needs to find its niche again. You need to open up and collaborate more and reinvent yourself," she said during a visit to The Japan Times on Tuesday.
Pheko said Japan and South Africa can benefit from each other through further exchanges and collaboration in various fields — including pharmaceuticals, agriculture, nano- and biotechnology, and new and green energy as well as nuclear power.
Pheko's career before she became an ambassador was remarkably varied: She was an economic and political analyst, a social entrepreneur and an expert on gender issues.
Citing the small number of female lawmakers in the Diet, Pheko said intelligent Japanese women could be a wonderful resource for the country.
"Why not use this amazing resource of women who are all over the place, to really inspire the nation — to give the nation a new vigor? I think that women can do that. We (can) bring a different set of thinking and ideas to the table. I think Japan is at a point where this might benefit the country," she said.
Pointing out that she had to fight for the position she now holds in a patriarchal society like South Africa, Pheko said women have to be willing to demand their rights.
"No one just hands you power. You have to claim your rights. And when you occupy these positions that you do, you have to really occupy the table. Otherwise, people don't take you seriously," she said.
"We have to work 10 times harder (than men) as women diplomats. You do your research, be more prepared and bring new ideas to the table," she said.

The squirrel measures around 25 centimetres in length and its bushy tail is another 15 to 20 centimetres long. It weighs between 230 and 480 grams and has a life expectancy of 10 to 12 years. The fur is reddish on top with whitish underparts and it has a tuft of long hair at the end of each ear.
Living in woods, forests and parks up to altitudes of 2,000 metres, the red squirrel is found in Europe, Siberia, Japan and Korea.
The red squirrel feeds on plant and leaf buds, coniferous and deciduous seeds, mushrooms, insects, and the eggs and chicks of nesting birds in the spring. Active throughout the year, the red squirrel builds a spherical nest 40 centimetres in diameter out of leaves, moss and small branches, high up in the tree crown. A diurnal animal, it mostly moves between trees and rarely goes to the ground for food. It is extremely nimble and jumps from branch to branch and tree to tree.

India are no longer lions at home
Indian wickets, have failed to assist hosts in the last decade resulting in dull draws
Indian wickets, have failed to assist hosts in the last decade resulting in dull draws
The Board of Control for Cricket in India's (BCCI) Ground and Pitches Committee has come under severe flak for not producing result-oriented pitches in the last few years. While the Anil Kumble-era saw India dominate visitors at home for 14 seasons (between 1987 to 2000), every 2.69 Tests on Indian soil in the last decade have failed to yield results.

India were truly lions at home and cubs away. That tag is not relevant anymore. So what really went wrong with Indian surfaces? Since November 2008, only three bowlers have managed five-wicket hauls: Two for Zaheer Khan, one for S Sreesanth and Harbhajan Singh.
Veteran curator Daljit Singh felt that the recent change of administration would help. "The previous Board president (Shashank Manohar) had told various curators around the country that pitches must not aid spinners (like they used to in the past).
Pitches for pacers
"Suddenly, we've been having Tests that haven't seen any turn all through the five days. In fact, he wanted curators to ensure that fast bowlers were the dominant forces. In the last five years, there are hardly two or three spinners in the top 20 list of wicket-takers in Ranji Trophy. That's unheard of in India. "I think the new president (N Srinivasan), with his business background, will encourage innovations to surfaces and ensure more results come India's way," he said.
"We must keep our bowlers happy," added Singh.Former India cricketer Sudhir Naik, who represents West Zone in the Committee, blamed urbanisation and change in weather for the lack of bounce and turn in Indian pitches. "The nature of the soil has changed especially in the bigger cities. Good soil is not available. In Mumbai,
we used to collect good soil from Borivli and Kalyan mountains, but today those are extinct.
"We have to go even further to try and get good soil. Also, the heat generated by the earth warming up is not helping the situation because of that, the character of the soil is changing. "What's the need of the hour? A lot of research work. In Mumbai, we have been mixing different type of soil. Even IIT engineers are trying to find solutions. Hopefully, they can come up with an answer."
ICC's proactive approach
ICC Manager Dave Richardson says that the global governing body's role with pitches is changing from a 'monitory process' to a 'proactive one'. "Until now, we never intervened or interrupted with home associations because we believe in their expertise. Recently, pitches have come under a lot of criticism. The ICC is positive that within the next two years, every surface in the world will be able to deliver results." Richardson said that the unwritten 'home advantage' must continue in Tests. "We want situations where teams go to other countries and get tested with different conditions," he signed off.

8.554845 - TCHAIKOVSKY: Dances and Overtures
Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky (1840-1893)
Dances and Overtures
Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky retains his position as the most popular of all Russian composers. His music offers obvious charms in its winning melodies and vivid orchestral colours. At the same time his achievement is deeper than this, however tempting it may be for the few to despise what so many people enjoy.
Born in Kamsko-Votkinsk in 1840, the second son of a mining engineer, Tchaikovsky had his early education, in music as in everything else, at home, under the care of his mother and of a beloved governess. From the age of ten he was a pupil at the School of Jurisprudence in St Petersburg, completing his studies there in 1859, to take employment in the Ministry of Justice. During these years he developed his abilities as a musician and it must have seemed probable that, like his near contemporaries Mussorgsky, Cui, Rimsky- Korsakov and Borodin, he would keep music as a secondary occupation, while following his official career.
For Tchaikovsky matters turned out differently. The foundation of the new Conservatory of Music in St Petersburg under Anton Rubinstein enabled him to study there as a full-time student from 1863. In 1865 he moved to Moscow as a member of the staff of the new Conservatory established there by Anton Rubinstein's brother Nikolay. For over ten years he continued in Moscow, before financial assistance from a rich widow, Nadezhda von Meck, enabled him to leave the Conservatory and devote himself entirely to composition. The same period in his life brought an unfortunate marriage to a self-proclaimed admirer of his work, a woman who showed early signs of mental instability and could only add further to Tchaikovsky's own problems of character and inclination. His homosexuality was a torment to him, while his morbid sensitivity and diffidence, coupled with physical revulsion for the woman he had married, led to a severe nervous breakdown.
Separation from his wife, which was immediate, still left practical and personal problems to be solved. Tchaikovsky's relationship with Nadezhda von Meck, however, provided not only the money that at first was necessary for his career, but also the understanding and support of a woman who, so far from making physical demands of him, never even met him face to face. This curiously remote liaison and patronage only came to an end in 1890, when, on the false plea of bankruptcy, she discontinued an allowance that was no longer of importance and a correspondence on which he had come to depend.
Tchaikovsky's sudden death in St Petersburg in 1893 gave rise to contemporary speculation and has given rise to further posthumous rumours. It has been suggested that he committed suicide as the result of pressure from a court of honour of former students of the School of Jurisprudence, when an allegedly erotic liaison with a young nobleman seemed likely to cause an open scandal even in court circles. Officially his death was attributed to cholera, contracted after drinking undistilled water. Whether the victim of cholera, of his own carelessness or reckless despair or of death deliberately courted, Tchaikovsky was widely mourned.
Tchaikovsky wrote some twelve operas, from The Voyevoda, completed in 1868 and subsequently destroyed by the composer, to the final Iolanta, staged in St Petersburg in 1892. Two of his operas have found an established place in international repertoire, Eugene Onegin and The Queen of Spades. The second of these, with a libretto by the composer and his brother Modest, based on Pushkin, was first staged in St Petersburg in 1890. The plot traces the gradual decline of Hermann into madness and suicide, as he seeks from the old Countess, whose death he causes, the secret of the three cards that must win, the third card, the Ace, replaced, as he gambles, by the Queen of Spades, in which he sees the face of the dead Countess. The short Prelude with which the work opens includes themes associated with Fate, with Hermann's love for Lisa, granddaughter of the Countess, and the three cards.
The symphonic poem Fatum, Op. 77, was written late in 1868 and first performed in Moscow the following February in a Russian Music Society concert. Nikolay Rubinstein had suggested a more obviously explanatory title, but the lines used, from Konstantin Batyushkov, did little to enlighten the audience. Tchaikovsky was at first very pleased with the piece. He had made use of a free form, its two introductory passages followed by an A flat major section that won praise from an otherwise critical Herman Laroche and even from Balakirev, before establishing C minor as the prevailing tonality. These materials are modified and explored, before the return of the opening. Balakirev conducted Fatum in St Petersburg, and was not sparing in his criticism of the work, while César Cui, a fellowmember of the Mighty Handful, could only find praise for the orchestration. Tchaikovsky destroyed the score the following year and it was only re-assembled after his death.
Tchaikovsky's first opera The Voyevoda was given an ill-prepared staging in Moscow in 1869, receiving five performances, after which it was withdrawn, and later destroyed by the composer, who drew from it material for later works. Much of it has since been reconstructed from the surviving orchestral parts. Based on an extended play by Ostrovsky, the opera contains Russian themes, proclaiming its national identity in the Overture.
The Maid of Orleans, based on Schiller and other sources, was first staged in St Petersburg in 1881, and marks Tchaikovsky's attempt to vie with the contemporary opera of Western Europe. The Entr'acte, between the first two acts, echoes Joan of Arc's hymn from the first act, leading to the court of Charles VII, where the French King is entertained by gypsies, and then by dwarfs and clowns, to be rewarded extravagantly, although the treasury is empty.
Tchaikovsky's only comic opera, Cherevichki (The Slippers), based on a story by Gogol, was first given the title Vakula the Smith and so staged in 1876. It was revised in 1885, unter the present title, and staged first in Moscow in 1887. Sometimes known as Les caprices d'Oxane and described as a comic-fantastic opera, it deals with the village activities of the Devil and the witch Solokha, and the coquetry of Oxana, who demands that her lover Vakula bring her the boots of the Tsaritsa. The Russian and Cossack dances form part of the third scene of the third act, where the chief minister is entertained by dancers, before the Devil returns to fly back with Vakula to the village.
Mounted at the Mariinsky Theatre in St Petersburg in 1887, The Enchantress, with a libretto written for Tchaikovsky by Ippolit Shpazhinsky, failed to grip the public. The plot largely revolves around the widow Nastasya, known as Kuma, hostess of an inn, where she charms Prince Nikita, in spite of the court Malvolio Mamïrov, exciting the jealousy of the Princess. Their son Yury plans to elope with Kuma, but she is poisoned by the Princess, aided by a wizard, who makes an opportune appearance, while the Prince kills his son, his rival in love, before going out of his mind. The Introduction leads to an opening scene of celebration at Kuma's inn, and she later offers the Prince the entertainment of a tumblers' dance.
Based on a poem by Pushkin, the opera Mazeppa was first staged in Moscow in 1884 and centres on the activities of the Ukrainian hetman of the title, entertained by a Gopak in the house of Kochubey, a cossack judge, later put to death by Mazeppa after his attempt to reveal to the Tsar the latter's plans for secession from Russia.
The Oprichnik was first seen in St Petersburg in 1874, its title indicating the calling of the hero Andrey Morozhov, who becomes a mercenary in the service of the Tsar in an attempt to find justice for his mother and himself against his oppressor Prince Zhemchuznïy, with whose daughter Natalya he is in love, although she is promised to another. The machinations of Andrey's enemies lead to his breaking his vows of renunciation as an oprichnik and his execution, after his supposed release from his oath and the celebration, with dances, of his wedding to Natalya.

Kim offers a holistic approach to counselling for individuals, families and groups, helping you access your potential for positive change.
I have been working for many years with people across the life cycle of birth to death since beginning as a Kindergartner in my 20's.
I've had stints in the world of retail (sales and managing small business) and hospitality (food and beverage) as well as welfare (Social Work) and education( early childhood teaching). Working with different ages, cultural, and socio-economic groups has provided great learning and also a strong foundation for working with people.
I've always had a passion for play, colour, movement, patterns and the need to understand why? This has been accompanied by a natural curiosity in people and why they are who they are; their histories and their family stories. I hold a strong sense of what children need to grow into healthy adults and what adults need in order to remain healthy.
I believe that as human beings we are body, soul and spirit. Health is not only about the physical body but also in relation to our thinking, feeling and sense of connection to spirit-whatever that may be for each of us as individuals. Time exploring a number of philosophies/religions has enabled me to understand the importance of belief systems in our lives.
We each have a unique belief system and values. These are not always reflected in society in the way we wish and this can be the cause of angst within us. We may also find, after some self -exploration, that our own beliefs and values are incongruent with how we live our lives. i.e.we don't' walk our talk! We develop "our data base of beliefs and values" through not only our lived experiences but also those we have been given early in our lives by significant others, such as our parents. They do not always continue to serve us throughout our lives, there's a "use-by" date. We need to reflect on, review, and discard that which is no longer useful in a conscious manner.
I've learnt many things over time that I'm able to share with you on your journey. Underlying my knowledge and skills is a deep respect for each person's journey, and their desire to steer their own life in order to reflect their beliefs and values.

View of Table Mountain from Blouberg Beach
Our Table Mountain is timeless - in terms of the multifaceted human history of Cape Town and South Africa - and in all human memory.
Cape Town's familiar flat topped mountain and its companions - Devil's Peak and Lion's Head have always been there. In fact for millions of years before the early human days when the original inhabitants of the Cape the indigenous Khoi-san roamed the coastal plains.
Table Mountain sheltered the original Cape explorers in the 16th century, the first European settlers and the many following generations of slaves, immigrants and travellers who helped to build and develop our special city.
The extraordinary appeal of Cape Town's famous natural attraction is known and appreciated in South Africa and around the world. It is a regular feature on postcards and has been captured in its varied moods, in numerous pictures and films.
Our Table
Mountain Cape Town mountain range originated some 500 million
years ago when Africa was
part of the original Gondwana
continent. The planet was in a turmoil of earth quakes and volcanic
The gigantic tectonic plates within the mantle, far below the seabed shifted over time and molten lava was forced upwards through a layer of shale to cool and form granite. Sand was deposited by ancient rivers over millions of years and the Cape mountain ranges including Table Mountain were slowly formed.
Table Mountain stands at the head of a mountain chain extending South along the backbone of the Cape Peninsula towards Cape Point. It is the direction from whence our well known Cape south easterly wind originates, from faraway over the Atlantic Ocean. The region is a nature reserve and is known as the Table Mountain National Park
Intending to use the cable car to go up the
mountain? You can now get your Table Mountain cableway tickets
online and avoid the queue. Much more convenient! Cableway e-tickets
Our Table Mountain in Cape Town is a magnet for photographers, tourists and hikers, and your visit to Cape Town would be incomplete without taking a cable car ride, or a hike to the summit. The upper cable station is at 1067 metres and the highest point Maclears Beacon 1085 metres.
So how do you get there and what will you find?

Growth of $10,000
If my portfolio had been a mutual fund and someone had invested $10,000 in it in 1996 and hadn't taken any money out along the way, they would have seen their money grow to just over $10 million 21 years later.
*While my recent results have still been very good, they can't quite live up to the shock and awe of the early years. Get the full story behind the story of this record run of outperformance in the Track Record section.

Here, I explain my core value investing philosophy, lay out the basic framework I follow and dive into the nuts and bolts of how to go about analyzing a new stock.
In the Mispriced Markets Portfolio section, I'll be maintaining a model portfolio of stocks closely based on my own personal holdings. Every time I add a new stock to the portfolio, I'll post an update detailing what the company does and why I chose to buy it. As well, I'll be posting portfolio reviews a couple of times a year where I'll talk about new developments in the marketplace and in the companies that make up the portfolio. Feel free to use any or all of my ideas in your own investing. You can learn more about exactly how this portfolio is constructed and maintained here.
The blog section of this website is going to be a wide-ranging exploration of value investing and the markets. Portfolio updates and reviews, investment tutorials, market research and company analysis will all find a home here. This is a pet project of mine and is meant to be fun.

Pothos plant care is very straightforward producing it an superb plant to develop for novice property gardeners. The ease I bring it up is there are individuals that shave cats and sell them as sphynx. Some cats could not mind the speed of the water, but not want to drink from the streams, in that case use the leading that puts out a single single stream of water so the cat has access to locations in the bowl exactly where water doesn't flow straight in. Nearly every single single cat will adore the pet fountain ultimately. But I would like to know what dogs are okay indoors but active adequate so we can go play with him in the park.
No hybrids (offspring of dogs or cats crossed with yet another species) are eligible for importation, with the exception of Bengal cats. Back to pay a visit to this terrific lens, tweet and stumble it. Also featured it on my personal lens on service dogs. Nellie is one particular of these dogs that just lives for the afternoon when she can go for her stroll. Go to my index web page -, scroll down to 'PART 4 – Health CARE' hold scrolling until you come to 4.2.two INSECTS & PARASITES, prevention, therapy, remedy. For valuable tips on what to do if your cat or dog is lost, please visit our lost cats or dogs page.
While a lot of people think that the vision of cats and dogs is superior to ours, that is only partially correct. We have four cats and we have a issue with two of them sometimes urinating on the carpet. A false theory stated that cats and dogs used to cuddle into thatch roofs for the duration of storms and then be washed out for the duration of heavy rains. Register and microchip your dog – in accordance with the Animal Management (Cats and Dogs) Act 2008, microchipping and registration is compulsory if it is aged 12 weeks and over.
Here in town, each cats often accompany me and the huge dogs on our afternoon walk via the woods behind the School for the Blind — sprinting ahead, lurking in the tall grass, pouncing and rubbing about our legs. If a single sees a cat, specifically a modest cat, this predatory instinct might kick in. Of course, this is not to say that Terriers cannot get along with cats. Compared to dogs that have evolved over time, with a variety of race, size, shape and character, racial variation is narrower cat.
A big box with a couple of holes cut into it to use for doorways makes a nice toy for smaller sized dogs. The thing that struck us the most, was that all the dogs seemed to be enjoying their ride. Our cats love the Stimulo Cat Feeding Station and Activity Center and have wonderful fun trying to get the meals out of the containers with their paws. Years ago when a single of my cats had intestinal cancer my vet recommended employing SeaCure to aid his digestion and add nutrients to his diet program.

That's what Greeks know today: "what they are NOT, what they DON'T want to be". That's what they say, sometimes even with stones and with the violence of broken marbles.
"We are not, we don't want to become" –say the Greeks– "perfect Northerners". A new Middle South is born: it's now visibly transforming Greece, and less visibly, the rest of the Mediterranean Europe and the Middle East. Its arrival –like that of anything newborn– brought Crisis but also Hope. Crisis is mostly economic: Middle South welcomes the crisis of its Economy! Hope is cultural: that's now our new job.

BEREA, Ohio -- When Jim Hilvert took the reigns as the head football coach at Baldwin Wallace University, one of his main priorities was to try to connect the legendary Yellow Jacket history and tradition to its current and future team and student-athletes.
On Saturday, October 28, Hilvert, his Yellow Jacket football staff, the 2017 BW football team and the rest of "Yellow Jacket Nation" will welcome back many of the very best to ever step on the field at either Watts Stadium or The George Finnie Stadium when it hosts the first, inaugural Past Football Captains Day.
The event will begin with a reception in the Tressel Lounge in the Lou Higgins Center on campus at 11:30 a.m. The Tressel Family is named for legendary at BW and College Football Hall of Fame Coach Dr. Lee Tressel '49. The reception is from 11:30 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. Hilvert is expected to greet and speak to the group at noon.
The former standouts and team leaders also will be recognized during the pregame coin toss when BW plays Ohio Athletic Conference rival Capital University at 1:30 p.m. on Tressel Field inside The George Finnie Stadium. The returning former players will join the current five Yellow Jacket team captains at midfield for the coin toss.
"We look forward to welcoming back some of the best to ever play at BW as well as many other gentlemen who have been instrumental to the success of the BW Football Family," said Hilvert. The men who are returning to campus were their team's leaders.
"Our goals are to both expose our current student-athletes to the leaders of the past and hopefully instill in them what an honor it is to be a BW football team captain and what it means to be a Yellow Jacket," said Hilvert.
TO REGISTER for this event, please either call Kelly Cirbus in the Athletics Department at 440-826-8060 and e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com or Head Coach Jim Hilvert at 440-826-8051 and firstname.lastname@example.com.

"May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind be even at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face and the rain fall softly on your fields. And until we meet again, may God hold you in the hollow of his hand".
It was a wonderful evening, the sun setting slowly as the students showed up dressed in their finery. The young ladies glowed in vibrant saris while the gentlemen carried themselves smartly in suits.
Elegantly dressed, as the students entered, they were welcomed by the teachers with special badges of appreciation and were escorted to the Hall on the traditional beats of Dhol Tasha.
The day was a fiesta devoted to the years spent together with friends and teachers to reminisce joyous moments.
The students were delighted when the teachers also presented a song for them.
The refreshments from "On the Go" added the much needed spice to the event.
The highlight was a power point presentation which threw fun and added life to the party.
Mr. Prasad Pardeshi, Principal, Indira National School in his speech wished all the students luck for their future endeavours and asked them to do their best and face life challenges with confidence.
The farewell party was celebrated with fervour at School campus. It was an occasion for the outgoing students to look back at the time that they spent at INS and the joyous moments spent together.

The painting shows a view towards the Doge's Palace on the right, with Santa Maria della Salute and the entrance to the Grand Canal on the left. The annual ceremony of the Wedding of the Sea is about to take place. The official procession is making its way from the Doge's Palace to the state barge, the 'Bucintoro', and the Doge's ceremonial umbrella is just visible in the crowd. The Doge will drop a gold ring from the barge to symbolise the marriage of Venice to the sea. The arms of the Doge Alvise Pisani, who ruled from 1735-41 are visible on the 'Bucintoro'. These details and stylistic considerations give the approximate date for the work.
This work and its companion piece, 'A Regatta on the Grand Canal', are among the grandest views of Venice that Canaletto made for the many wealthy visitors who flocked to see the city and to witness the impressive public ceremonies held on the Grand Canal.

McCann Erickson is running a global campaign for Cathay Pacific showing its staff on and off duty.
Unfortunately someone has leaked some pictures of staff enjoying off-duty activities on duty, including oral sex.
Clearly this has alarmed everybody apart from maybe passengers who, in the words of one YouTube commentator, would prefer their pilots to be relaxed and stress-free.
These Eastern airlines are always majoring on their pretty cabin staff, all submissive and geisha-like. So is what you see what you get?
Reminds me of a funny comment over the weekend about former US president Bill Clinton's trips on Air Force One. This was something along the lines of: 'we're coming in to land, please put the cabin staff in an upright position.'
Goodness knows what effect all this will have on Virgin Atlantic's rascally Sir Richard Branson and his thoughts about his next campaign. Those red-suited, high-heeled Virgin cabin staff will be leaving in droves.

Eczema Skin Care
Eczema can be tough for an adult or child to cope with. It is estimated that about one in 10 people are affected by eczema at some point in their lives, so it's worth investigating what treatments are out there.
What is eczema?
The word eczema comes from the Greek word that means to effervesce or bubble or boil over. 65% of people with eczema develop symptoms in the first year of their life. If both parents have eczema, there's an 80% chance that their children will too. Nicole Kidman, Brad Pitt, Kate Middleton and Catherine Zeta-Jones have all suffered from eczema at some point in their lives.
An allergic state is the fundamental profile of eczema. Of patients who suffer from asthma, hay fever and food allergies, approximately 70% will report eczema too. Immunoglobulin E antibodies are present in elevated levels in 80 per cent of eczema sufferers. These antibodies stimulate mast cells to release histamine, dissolving healthy skin cells and causing skin to appear infected or injured.
Common topical eczema treatments.
Most people with eczema will use both emollients and prescribed steroid creams depending on the condition of their skin. To be effective it is important to know how to use these creams in conjunction with each other in order to prolong the periods between eczema flair ups and minimise the use of steroid creams.
Emollients do not contain active ingredients that can pass through the skin, so they can be applied as often as necessary to moisturise the skin. For best results apply by smoothing the emollient cream along the line of hair growth. Emollients should be used continuously and regularly to help prevent flair ups developing and as a first treatment when a flair up occurs. Some emollient creams can contain mineral oils, harsh preservatives or petrochemicals that may irritate the skin. Read the ingredients carefully and choose an emollient that will suit your skin type. Suvex Soothe is a natural intensive emoillient made from 100% plant based ingredients.
Topical steroids may also be a necessary treatment when an eczema flair up occurs. Steroids should be applied sparingly as advised by your doctor and rubbed into the affected area. For best results apply the emollient cream first and wait for it to be absorbed, then apply the topical steroid.
Age profile and eczema.
Different parts of the body are affected at different ages. Adults present with localised inflammation such as hands, ankles and the backs of feet. Children and adolescents tend to suffer in the folds of the skin where the limbs bend. Infants show weeping, inflamed patches with crusted plaques on the face, neck and groin. These lesions are at risk of infection with staphylococcus aureus. Physicians tend to treat this condition with antihistamines or steroids in severe cases, but prescription drugs risk side-effects. Interestingly, breastfeeding can play a role. Since the 1930s, scientists found that infant eczema sufferers have a deficiency of essential fatty acids, which in turn leads to an imbalance in the immune system destroying healthy skin cells and stimulating their rapid replacement. Another reason why breast-feeding can be better for babies.
It's very important to find out what 'triggers' your dry, itchy and eczema skin conditions, consult a skin specialist and get tested in order to determine your individual triggers and do your best to avoid them.
Some common triggers are:
>> Astringents and fragrances found is some soaps, shampoos, washing powders, cosmetics and room fragrances and fresheners. Select the fragrance free cosmetics and washing products
>> Look out for Sodium Lauryl Sulphates (SLS) a known skin irritant found in many creams for "sensitive skin". Lanolin can also cause reactions in some eczema sufferers. Alcohol is another ingredient to avoid as it can dry the skin.
>> It's advised to avoid hot and humid or cold and dry conditions (air-conditioning and overheating) as well as materials that feel "itchy" like wool. Try to wear soft fabrics like cotton or silk which tend to be less irritating.
>> Over exposure to nut oils can trigger a reaction in some eczema sufferers.
>> Another factor to consider is your diet, particularly if all regular treatment and avoidance of trigger factors fails. Common foods that provoke allergies are cow's milk, eggs, chicken and nuts. It is recommended that you should only exclude food from a child's diet when in consultation with a doctor and dietician.
>> Finally, do your best to keep your stress under control. Of course, that's easier said than done when the eczema is part of the reason you're so stressed, but it only exacerbates the problem. Learning to reduce stress may lessen the frequency and intensity of flare-ups.
We asked Skin Specialist Bernie Fahy for her advice on eczema and its treatments.
Natural treatments
Eczema can be treated successfully by natural means. Dietary advice would be to include a serving of cold-water fish each week. Dietary supplementation causes good fatty acids to arrive into the linings of skin cells, protecting them from the tissue-destructive cells of the immune system.
Supplements include evening primrose oil. This oil can naturally correct fatty acid profiles in adults, children and infants. Probiotics and prebiotics when taken daily can also have positive effects on eczema sufferers.
One tablespoon of flaxseed oil daily can be beneficial too, while vitamins A and E are recommended in a monitored programme. A clarifying supplement containing vitamins A, C and E is available. It helps reduce inflammation internally and is clinically proven to help the inner defences.
Herbal remedies also provide a natural option to help calm an eczema flare-up. Burdock and liquorice have proven effective and also have the benefit of being relatively inexpensive with no chemicals that would risk side effects.
Burdock is a source of inulin, which provides an immune defence against bacterial infection. Dandelion is also a source of inulin.
Finally, I'd recommend Suvex Soothe® for this condition as it really reduces the itch which breaks the cycle of the skin being inflamed. It's soothing ingredients will calm and replenish the skin, moisturising, cooling and reducing irritation very quickly. By following expert guidelines, we really can manage this condition and alleviate the discomfort for sufferers of all ages. So, don't suffer in silence: show eczema the exit!

Referring to itself in third person, Full Tilt Poker has just informed its players that they are "here to stay" in spite of
To this we say, "Fuck yeah, Full Tilt Poker. Fuck yeah."
Read the release after the jump.
And click here for a full list of "who's in" (Full Contact Poker, Absolute Poker, UB, etc.) and "who's out" (Party Poker, 888, etc.).
Full Tilt Poker is here to stay!
As an online poker player, you have probably heard about the new legislation passed by the U.S. Congress earlier this week that attempts to prevent you from being able to transfer money to online gaming sites.
While this new law has prompted some sites to announce plans to abandon the U.S. market in coming days, we assure you that Full Tilt Poker will continue to provide all of its players – both inside and outside of the United States – with a full complement of real money ring games and tournaments for their enjoyment.
After consultation with numerous legal experts in this field, we want to make you aware of the following:
* Legal
The new U.S. legislation does not in any way attempt to criminalize the act of you playing online poker. By playing online at Full Tilt Poker, you are not breaking any U.S. Federal laws.
* Full Access
The passage of the new Internet Gaming law will not have any impact on your day-to-day experience at Full Tilt Poker. We will provide all of our players, everywhere in the world, with full access to all of our games and tournaments.
* Easy Deposits and Withdrawals
We will continue to provide our players with all of the safe, secure and convenient methods for transferring money to and from the site. In fact, in recent discussions with our payment processors, we have been assured that this new law will have no immediate impact on their day-to-day business. And as always, any monies that you have on deposit with Full Tilt Poker remain completely safe and secure.
Furthermore, we firmly believe that online poker is not encompassed by this new legislation. In any event, we will continue to lobby for an express carve-out for online poker and for your right to play a truly American game from the privacy of your own home and computer.
We are excited about the future here at Full Tilt Poker and in the coming weeks and months, we plan to roll out many new features designed to enhance your online poker experience.
We appreciate your loyalty to our site and, in turn, want you to know that we will remain loyal to our valued players in the United States and throughout the world.

Survivors of traumatic events may experience PTSD
More than two weeks ago, a four-story building under demolition collapsed on top of the Salvation Army Thrift Store at 22nd and Market streets, killing six people and injuring 13.
Before firefighters and emergency rescue workers could arrive on the scene, ordinary passersby ran to the site to help those trapped in the rubble.
After living through the collapse, and recovering from injuries, survivors may face another challenge—the potential for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, commonly known as PTSD.
People who are diagnosed with PTSD have experienced distressing events like the building collapse, including abuse, combat, natural disasters, life-threatening accidents, or violent crimes. Researchers say, however, not everyone suffers from PTSD.
Among those who are affected, typical post-trauma stress reactions will initially occur, and will not fade with time. If these reactions last more than one month, PTSD is likely present.
"In this case, the survivors might now be more afraid of buildings collapsing and want to stay away from tall buildings," says Sandy Capaldi, a licensed clinical psychologist at the Perelman School of Medicine's Center for the Treatment and Study of Anxiety. "But the reality is that the probability of a building collapsing is no greater now than it was the day before this tragedy. It is only this experience that has made it seem more likely to occur. However, if you avoid tall buildings, you won't give yourself the chance to re-learn that tall buildings are okay 99 percent of the time."
Common symptoms of PTSD include ongoing intrusive distressing memories, dreams or flashbacks, difficulty sleeping, hyper-vigilance, and certain physical reactions, like an increased heart rate.
Individuals with PTSD can experience anger, shame, guilt, or fear, and the inability to feel positive emotions. They may also have negative, distorted beliefs about the trauma, themselves, or about the safety of the world in general.
Capaldi suggests trauma survivors should continue living normal, everyday lives.
"Garnering social support, talking about how you feel, and letting yourself have thoughts and feelings about what happened is helpful," she says. "You may be struggling with newly acquired fears that relate to the event you experienced, but it is important not to avoid activities or situations because of that fear."
Melissa Hunt, associate director of the clinical training program in the Department of Psychology in the School of Arts & Sciences, says that if people are still experiencing significant distress and intrusive memories or dreams, avoidance, shame, guilt, or rage after one month, it might be time to seek professional help.
"Some distress, dreams, and intrusive recollections are normative," she says. "It only becomes problematic if the person starts engaging in avoidant coping. [That could mean] avoiding thinking or talking about the experience, avoiding places, people, or things that remind them of the trauma."
According to the Center for the Treatment and Study of Anxiety, an estimated 8 percent of the U.S. adult population meets the criteria for PTSD, and women are more likely to develop symptoms than men.

DAN MARZILLI, Senior-Baseball
* SMAA all-star, second team
Marzilli was one of the league's best pitchers during the regular season, then he cemented his legend with a playoff performance for the ages to cap yet another highly successful season for the Bulldogs.
Marzilli started playing baseball in T-ball and was a catcher initially, but his shelf life as a lefthander at that position was short and in fifth grade, he began pitching. Marzilli played for Deering as a freshman and sophomore, then came to Portland as a junior, where he stepped right in as an ace, going 4-1 with a 2.17 earned run average, helping the Bulldogs get to the regional final.
"I was excited to play for (Portland coach Mike Rutherford)," said Marzilli. "I knew how successful he was."
Marzilli, who was a captain on a Bulldogs football team which got to the state final in November, was even better this spring, going 5-2 in the regular season with a 2.10 ERA. In 50 innings, he allowed just 28 hits and 15 earned runs, striking out 39 and walking just 20. His durability was best illustrated by tying Sanford's Frankie Veino for most appearances (10) and tying Veino and Scarborough's Mitchell Wedge in starts made (8). He was second to Wedge in innings pitched, tied for third in the league in wins, tied for sixth in strikeouts and he picked off more than a dozen baserunners.
Highlights included a win in relief versus Sanford, a two-hit gem in a win over Windham, a four-hit shutout against Marshwood and a two-hit, five-strikeout performance in a win over Massabesic.
He also had a hit in his lone at-bat.
After Portland beat Kennebunk in the preliminary round of the playoffs, Marzilli got the ball at Thornton Academy for the quarterfinals. The Bulldogs lost at the Golden Trojans in the regular season, but Marzilli threw a one-hit shutout and Portland eked out a 1-0 victory.
"I like pitching because I'm in control of the game," Marzilli said. "I don't cave under pressure. I'm very competitive and I always want to do more."
"He put the team on his shoulders against TA," said Rutherford. "We just needed to get him one run."
The Bulldogs lost at Falmouth in the semifinals, but it was another strong season regardless.
Marzilli is playing American Legion baseball this summer and took part in football's Lobster Bowl. He's planning to attend Southern Maine Community College in the fall, where he'll study Fire Science. He hasn't decided if he'll play baseball.
He certainly has the goods to be successful at the next level. Dan Marzilli, Portland's Spring Male Athlete of the Year, had a brilliant senior campaign and bowed out with a heroic performance.
Coach Mike Rutherford's comment: "The last two years, when the game was on the line, we wanted Danny on the mound. We wouldn't have been the number one team two years ago or have gotten to the semifinals this year without him. He's very soft spoken, but he's a gritty competitor. He progressed and got stronger every game. He pitched to contact and let us make plays. He did what a number one pitcher is supposed to do. He proved he was one of the top players in the league."

JESS BROWN, Sophomore-Softball
SMAA all-star, honorable mention
Brown's powerful right arm sparked Portland's best season in over a decade and the good news for the Bulldogs is that she has two years left and she's only going to get better.
Brown started playing softball at a young age and wasn't crazy about it until the age of nine when she learned to pitch. She was destined to fall in love with the sport, however, as her grandfather helped establish the city's first softball league and her mother played as well.
As a freshman at Portland, Brown played junior varsity and saw a couple varsity innings, but not much was expected of her (or her team) heading into the 2016 season.
Brown had spent countless hours in the offseason (while also playing volleyball) devoting herself to improving her craft and she emerged as the ace this spring, going 8-6 with a 2.63 earned run average. Brown allowed just 68 hits in 83 innings and she struck out 113 batters.
She was pretty good with the bat in her hand too, producing a .335 average, finishing second on the team in hits, scoring 10 runs and driving in 11.
Regular season highlights included a no-hit, 18-strikeout masterpiece versus Cheverus, a one-hit, 10-K win over McAuley, three hits and a win over South Portland (the Bulldogs' first over the Red Riots since 2005), a five-hit, eight-K shutout win over eventual state champion Biddeford, 12 strikeouts and a triple in a four-hit victory over Deering, a triple which led to the winning run in an extra inning triumph at Windham and a five-hit, 10-K victory over Bonny Eagle, in a game in which she also had three hits and scored twice.
Portland finished with a winning record for the first time in a decade and earned a home playoff game for the first time in nearly a decade. In the preliminary round, versus a Marshwood squad which beat the Bulldogs, 5-0, in the regular season, Portland produced its first playoff win since 2006, rallying to win in dramatic fashion, 3-2, in eight innings. Brown allowed just two runs on three hits and struck out 12. She also drove in the tying run in the bottom of the seventh to force extra innings and keep Portland's season alive.
The Bulldogs were finally vanquished by Scarborough in the quarterfinals, but the thrills of 2016 won't be forgotten.
"My goal was to get one varsity start," said Brown. "Cheverus was a big confidence booster. Winning is always fun."
Brown, who throws a fastball, change-up and drop ball, wants the game in her hands.
"I like to be in control," Brown said. "The pitcher gets to handle the ball on every play. I knew I could contribute."
Brown is continuing to work on her craft this summer, playing on the Thunder travel team, as well as doing camps and clinics. She's a member of Portland's Executive Board, Yearbook and Math team and volunteers as a tutor. She hopes to be even better next season and has a long term goal of playing softball in college.
And based on her dramatic growth and ability to thrive in big spots, it wouldn't be wise to bet against her. Jess Brown, Portland's Spring Female Athlete of the Year, had a season to remember and the good times are only going to continue.
Coach Robbie Ferrante's comment: "Jess put in the extra work and matured not just as a sophomore player, but also as a young lady. Jess is good and she's still getting better. For a sophomore, she's very cool. She handles herself very well. She never missed practice. She didn't want to come out of games. She wanted the ball. She's an athlete and she's very dedicated."

text: Animewarsdude 3,636 Posted May 1, 2017 37 minutes ago, eMeM said: TCW Grievous is consistent with the movie Grievous, unlike the one from tge 2D cartoon which seems to be based only on the concept art. Also everything in the 2D cartoon was very obviously exaggerated and over the top, I don't understand how anyone could look at the events from that show and conclude that this depiction of the events must be the closest to the truth. I think they probably just ended up showing Gendy the concept art for Greivous and that he was a general who used lightsabers and let him fill in the rest for the show, which then sort of fueled how authors wrote him in comics and in their books...right up to that point of the movie. If we want anyone to blame about Grevious it is Lucas for wanting a villain who would run away as soon as things weren't in his favor. Clone Wars just continued the film's version of the character. 2 KCDodger and JJFDVORAK reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mary has reveled in an artistic life, performing harp, dressing
sets for NY film productions, and now using public art and writing
to mobilize for climate action. A National Endowment for the Arts
grant recipient, Mary may be the first harpist to perform in both
The Cathedral of St. John the Divine, where she worked with
composer John Cage, and the subway stop under Bloomingdales. As a
student leader, she sang along with Pete Seeger during the 10-day
apartheid divestment sit-in at Columbia University.
Mary later studied at Eastman School of Music and University of Oregon's School of Music and performed widely, including solo appearances at major music festivals. She toured the original interactive musical "The Incredible Earth Circus" in schools and was commissioned to write six children's plays, three of which are still regularly performed.
In 1996, Mary began to write about conscious parenting in an era of rapid global transformation. She uses several forms–social commentary, essays, interviews, reporting, and interactive art–to advocate for a healthy, just, and fun world. Her writing has appeared in The Sun, EcoWatch, Common Dreams, Mothering.com, Spirituality & Health, Oregon Quarterly, The Oregonian, The Folk Harp Journal,and ISLE (Interdisciplinary Studies in Literature and Environment)a quarterly journal published by Oxford University Press.
Mary co-founded Eugene's chapter of the international climate action group 350.orgwhere, as Creative Director, she specializes in collaborating with families and young people.
On the home front, Mary is grateful to be married to a physicist/math instructor who can, among other fine things, help the teens survive Algebra.

The following is NAR Chief Economist Lawrence Yun's reaction to this morning's S&P/Case-Shiller release on November home prices:
"The softening home price appreciation in the latest Case-Shiller index will continue in the upcoming months as housing inventory builds. But it is unlikely for the national median home price to actually decline given the housing shortage of moderately priced homes and from job additions in the economy. In 2019, home prices in many markets look to trail income growth for the first time since 2012. That is a healthy development of keeping housing affordability in check."

Article Title
The Foreign Policies of the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. and Their Effect on the Future World Situation
In analyzing the subject assigned to me for my thesis I realized that I had only the haziest notion of exactly what "foreign policy" is; I had forgotten most of the details of early United States history; I had never actually formed a comprehensive picture of Russia or the Russians; and what I knew of Communism and Soviet diplomacy had been picked up mainly from newspapers and commentators.

HEULIEZ BUS receives major order for its new range of electric citybuses
18 Oct, 2017, 07:49 BST
LONDON, Oct. 18, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- HEULIEZ BUS, the European bus brand of CNH Industrial (NYSE: CNHI /MI: CNHI), announces the first important order for its new electric citybus range. TIDE BUSS, one of Norway's largest people transport operators, has signed an order for the delivery of 10, GX 437 ELEC models to operate in the city of Trondheim. Trondheim is well-known for being a pioneering hub for sustainable transport with the largest running parc of electric buses in the country. According to the tender, the electric buses will be delivered in the second quarter of 2019.
The fully-electric articulated GX 437 model developed by HEULIEZ BUS marks a significant step forward in the development of clean and quiet transport for smart cities. It counts a strong competitive advantage in the electric bus market, offering high quality standards, reliability and excellent performance. These lightweight, 18-meter citybuses, made of 100% stainless steel, are equipped with Lithium Titanate Oxide batteries and a powerful 160/200KW electric motor. Energy is stored within the vehicle to allow longer daily mileage without restrictions. Passenger capacity is also the market best for this new range of electric citybuses, allowing for over 130 people on board in a single journey, in adherence to European regulations.
TIDE BUSS's order comes as a first demonstrative validation of the vehicle concept, following years of Research & Development by HEULIEZ BUS in the field of citybus electrification, where significant investment has been made, particularly at the Company's facility in Rorthais, France. HEULIEZ BUS's established experience in electric powertrains has also seen the brand make a name for itself as a leader in the hybrid citybus segment in Continental Europe with over 600 units having been put in service since 2013.
The forthcoming international Busworld exhibition taking place in Kortrijk, Belgium, will see HEULIEZ BUS display its range of electric citybuses, including the new Bus Rapid Transit GX LINIUM model in a full electric version.

By DAN MACINTOSH
With Change, her first full-length solo album away from the B-52s, Cindy Wilson has steered clear of any love shacks or wacky sea creatures. She has also distinctly distanced herself from the hyperactive, guitar-accented dance grooves usually associated with her veteran New Wave day job.
Instead, synthesized contemporary dance-pop appears to be her main inspiration for these 10 cool songs.
New Sound for Cindy Wilson
Indeed, it's a revelation to hear Wilson sing with the breathy tone applied to "Sunrise." She's not trying to drag your butt out on the dance floor, instead she's attempting and succeeding at getting under your skin. "Sunrise" is a slow burn groove, characterized by shuffled percussion and layered female vocals. It's more late-night meditation, than thumping Saturday night fever.
Check out the Cindy Wilson website
Bright, bold synth lines introduce "Mystic," a track that imagines a prettier, feminine Gary Numan. The B-52s have always come off like a '60s garage rock band dressed in '80s clothes. With Change, though, Wilson has surrounded herself with a bevy of contemporary dance elements.
'Change' by Cindy Wilson
Subtle sounds — like those found throughout this album — have never been a factor in B-52s music, which is why this other side of Wilson's music is special. Wilson is a delicate flower, surrounded by rays of aural sunshine. She's just never had this kind of sonic forum within B-52s. Change finds this lovely flower fully in bloom.
New Sounds for 1980s Singer
One called "Brother," however, hearkens back to Wilson's musical roots. The drums rock out like a British Invasion raver, while the guitars pump up the volume with an enjoyable touch of dissonance. But even within all this beautiful rock noise, Wilson's voice remains one cool customer.
Wilson's bandmate Fred Schneider, sounds like a carnival barker, whether leading B-52s or fronting his side project The Superions. Not so with Wilson, though. Change is not just a handy album name, but is also an accurate descriptor for Cindy Wilson's delightful solo music, and one welcome change of pace.
