On Monday 1st June the UK Parliament returns from recess for the summer sitting. We want to give them a warm welcome and remind them of the heat they can expect if they continue to ignore climate change.
Ed Miliband (Secretary of State Energy and Climate Change) is in Bonn that evening, discussing with other 'world leaders' the agenda for the UN Climate Summit in Copenhagen. Let's give our 'leaders' a taste of the civil disobedience they can expect if real climate justice fails to materialise.
It is also the first evening of a coal conference at the illustrious 'Chatham House'. Everyone who's anyone, at least in the coal world, will be there.
We'll begin our bike-ride outside their conference before winding our way through town.
Meet us from 5pm on St James Square, SW1Y 4LE. We'll then move off at 6pm and take our bikes for a relaxed tour through London. Labour might think that investing in electric cars is the solution to climate change but we know that cars using electricity from coal-fired power stations is yet another red-herring.
Have you ever needed more reason to leave the house, embrace the sunshine and join the pedal-powered as they move about town?
Come along and make your impact felt.
Climate Rush is inspired by the actions of the Suffragettes 100 years ago, who showed that peaceful civil disobedience could inspire positive change. We are a diverse group of women and men who are determined to raise awareness of the biggest threat facing humanity today – that of Climate Change. Our government acknowledges the huge problems we face from Climate Change, but carries on with business as usual. We demand DEEDS NOT WORDS because individual choice alone cannot curb CO2 emissions if we are to stop runaway global warming.

How's that for novel advice? People often want the easy answer. They want the new gadget that is going to give them better photos but the thing that is going to really make a difference is practice. That is why, as a whole, people have gotten so much better at taking photos. It used to be that you would take 16 photos as best you could and then get them developed a long time later and then complain about how they suck. Now, you can take 16,000 photos, see them instantly, complain they suck, and then figure out why they suck and fix it.
I've been a professional photographer for about 8 years now but as I was looking through old pictures for this blog, I realized that the progression of my skills has been pretty dramatic. Sure, some of that is gear. The cameras now can take good pictures in near pitch black conditions and that was not the case until fairly recently. But besides that, just the composition and technical skills have improved greatly.
I'll be using this blog to share tips on how to speed up that progression. I don't like looking at crappy photos of your kids so I'd like to help you. Stay tuned. Follow us on Instagram to see our photos.

The familiar Halloween pumpkin is a member of the squash family, native to North and Central America. The seeds of the pumpkin were used medicinally in Native American medicine, primarily for the treatment of kidney, bladder, and digestive problems. From 1863 to 1936, the United States Pharmacopoeia listed pumpkin seeds as a treatment for intestinal parasites.
Pumpkin seed oil has become popular today as a treatment for prostate enlargement (
benign prostatic hyperplasia
, or BPH), and it was approved for this use in 1985 by Germany's Commission E. However, there is no meaningful evidence that pumpkin seed is helpful for this condition. Only
, placebo-controlled studies can prove a treatment effective, and none have been reported for pumpkin seed oil alone. (For information on why this type of study is essential, see
Why Does This Database Rely on Double-blind Studies?
) However, two such studies evaluated a combination product containing pumpkin seed oil and the herb
saw palmetto
These studies did suggest benefit with the combination product, but since saw palmetto is thought to be effective for BPH, it is not clear whether pumpkin seed oil made any additional contribution.
The only reported study on pumpkin seed oil alone lacked a
group, and for this reason its results prove little.
(BPH is a condition that responds greatly to the power of suggestion, so it could have been assumed even before conducting this trial that people given pumpkin seed oil would show improvement.)
In highly preliminary research, pumpkin seed or its constituent curcurbitin has shown some activity against intestinal parasites.
These studies, however, can only be regarded as highly preliminary investigations of a traditional use; they were not designed in such a way that they could prove effectiveness.
Two studies performed in Thailand hint that pumpkin seed snacks might help prevent
kidney stones
among children at high risk for developing them.
However, this research only looked at chemical changes in the urine suggestive of a possible preventive effect, not actual reduction of stones. Furthermore, the design of the studies did not reach modern standards.
In studies, the dose of pumpkin seed oil used for the treatment of BPH was 160 mg three times daily. For the prevention of kidney stones, the dose of pumpkin seed snack tried was 5–10 grams per day.
As a widely eaten food, pumpkin seeds are presumed to be safe (though there have been cases in which incompletely chewed up seeds have gotten stuck in the esophagus!). There are as yet no known or suspected safety risks with pumpkin seed oil.

Despite the fact that life with a new baby is chaos and we've got the multipliers of a preschooler and having just moved to monkey wrench the whole dealie, I feel like I'm doing much better than I did after my first daughter was born. Not just from a mental health and personal juggling standpoint, which is leagues better than it was last time mostly because of this, but also with work. Even though I have much less time now than I did when my first daughter was born, it really feels like I'm getting a lot more writing and revision done day to day.
But am I really? You know I graphed that because I just had to know!
Because I've been keeping a record of what I write every day for years now, it was a simple matter to throw together a little chart that compares the first 60 days of life for Baby #1, Baby #2 and a control data set of a comparable period before I had any kids at all (2011)*. And here's how that looks…
Hot damn! In the first 60 days, I averaged 147 words a day after Baby #1 and 1,613 after Baby #2. Which is pretty darn good by itself but is really awesome when you consider that I was only averaging 766 words a day before I had any kids at all and had all the time in the world. Keep in mind that my focus is never on writing everyday, just writing regularly (which is good because there are MANY days in a post-kids universe where I don't get to write a single word).
But the real takeaway of that chart above is the consistency of my writing progress. Other than the days directly after Baby #2's birth (when I was in the hospital and not really in a position to write**), my progress is pretty darn consistant compared to the peaks and valleys of the other two lines. It seems impossible that the amount of writing I'm doing is increasing as the amount of time I have to write is decreasing but the numbers don't lie. I'm writing more now when I've got less time than ever before.
"Yeah, yeah, good for you," you say. "Why do I care?"
Here's why: It's really got nothing to do with babies. It's about building a writing habit that will sustain you when life hands you chaos of any kind. It's building writing into your life until it's second nature because that keeps you writing even when you've got less time, less brainpower and a million other things going on. And I didn't always have it.
The Me of Five Years ago got all the time in the world to write, had the luxury to devote 100% of her attention to her work, got plenty of exercise, sleep and leisure time. The Me of Now almost never gets to work without half an eye on some kind of child chaos, often goes several days without a chance to write at all, is sleep deprived and otherwise treating her body like garbage and almost never has the luxury of silence to think about what I'm writing before I sit down at my desk. But Me of Now is getting more writing done. So what's the secret?
For me, it looked like this:
- Because I had less time to write post-kids, I had to make writing a bigger priority in my life if I was going to keep it up
- Less writing time also meant I had less time to waste and had to get in the habit of focusing faster, procrastinating less
- My spreadsheet kept me accountable to writing regularly (because daily was never gonna happen) and gave me benchmarks and goals to keep me on track
- …all of which helped me build writing regularly into a habit that wasn't a chore I needed to remind myself to do but rather a fixed part of my regular routine.
As writing becomes something as natural a part of your daily routine as eating (which, coincidentally, my children also don't always give me time to do!), it takes a lot more to stop you from doing it. And if there's less obstacles to keep you from writing, you'll write more and make more of the time you do have. That's really all there is to it!
But just because it's easy to say, doesn't mean it's easy to implement! I wouldn't have gotten here if I hadn't taken that first step and worked towards building a writing habit before I had one. Keep in mind that it took me close to six years to get to this point and I still have days when I finally get the kids to sleep and collapse into my desk chair only to realize… I got nothin'. But the important thing isn't the days when I don't write but the habit that keeps me writing consistently overall. A habit is what keeps a no words day from being a no words month no matter what else is going on and keeps you writing more days than not.
So start building yourself a consistant writing habit now so you chaos proof yourself for whatever life's getting ready to throw at you in the future!
*= My options were limited for the control year since I only started keeping track in 2011 and my first daughter was born in 2012 but the dates are almost the exact same days of the month as the Baby #1 chart because of when she was born anyway. That date also gives me a year and a half to compare side by side if I want to before Baby #1 starts to effect the numbers in utero.
**= Though I did jot down notes for a random play idea on my phone while at the hospital because I am apparently a word junkie.

|[Savannah-users] Backgammon
|Sat, 21 Nov 2009 14:48:58 -0800 (PST)
Hello, I am not a member but found your site as I was looking for a downloadable backgammon game to play. Anyway, I became concerned as to the advantage that seems to appear for the computer player when stuck in an uncompromising sitution. So I developed in VB6 a stand alone, click to roll dice game, using two die and randomizing each die individually. This works great when manual dice is selected in the options. However, if I choose the read from file selection within this game I am left with a bunch of double ones. Does the gnub backgammon game not agree with certain aspects of VB6? If so can you direct me to a location that I might could use some other random dice program written in a different language that would be more compatible with whatever gnubg is written. Regards, Craig

Learn something new every day
More Info... by email
An advertising agency is a business designed to help clients advertise and promote their businesses. In the case of a radio advertising agency, the agency focuses specifically on creating and placing ads on various radio stations. For many businesses, radio can be a very effective advertising medium, both in terms of the audience and the cost.
The first step in advertising is often performing a market analysis to identify potential users of the product to be advertised. This is done by evaluating as many specifics as possible related to the product, such as the general age of people that might buy it, overall interests and age, as well as any other pertinent details that might apply. The radio advertising agency will then identify which radio stations have the type of listeners most likely to purchase the product or service.
In addition, the radio advertising agency has employees who will help their clients create ad campaigns. Often, advertisers have a vague idea of what they would like to say in a radio ad, but don't quite know the best way to say it. Personnel at the radio advertising agency help write the copy. They also have access to studios and voice-over talent that can be used to create commercials to be aired on the radio. The goal of the agency is to ensure that the best possible commercial is made.
A marketing specialist from the radio advertising agency spends time with the client, evaluating not only the client's advertising needs, but also the budget. How often the ads air, the time of day and during which programs are all controlled by how much the client is willing to pay for the advertising. It is much more expensive to advertise during a popular, nationwide show than it is to run ads during a local show with a significantly smaller audience.
The radio advertising agency may also suggest ways that the client can get more attention without a large additional cost. They will typically help clients with such things as special promotions, contests and sponsorships. Often a live broadcast from the client's store or event can be arranged in an effort to draw in local customers and create excitement.
Once the details have been determined and the client is ready to begin an ad campaign, a radio advertising agency works to place the client's ads with one or more radio stations. The agency handles all negotiations on the client's behalf, then returns to the client with an advertising contract. At this point the client can decide to proceed or ask for a change in terms. Once the client is satisfied and the campaign is launched, the radio advertising agency has done its job. They will follow up as the campaign progresses in order to identify and assist the client with any additional radio advertising needs.
One of our editors will review your suggestion and make changes if warranted. Note that depending on the number of suggestions we receive, this can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days. Thank you for helping to improve wiseGEEK!

Romans 4 - Part 2
(originally published November 4, 2012)
Today we will be looking at V. 4-7,
"If you're a hard worker and do a good job, you deserve your pay; we don't call your wages a gift. But if you see that the job is too big for you, that it's something only God can do, and you trust him to do it—you could never do it for yourself no matter how hard and long you worked—well, that trusting-him-to-do-it is what gets you set right with God, by God. Sheer gift."
David confirms this way of looking at it, saying that the one who trusts God to do the putting-everything-right without insisting on having a say in it is one fortunate man:
Fortunate those whose crimes are carted off,
whose sins are wiped clean from the slate.
Fortunate the person against
whom the Lord does not keep score."
Growing up my dad taught us to work hard. It paid off because I had my first job at twelve years old! I believe in the value of hard work and I would assume many of you do as well. V. 4 is by no means saying that hard work is a bad thing. The idea behind this verse is that of trust.
Do you trust in works to set you right?
The problem enters when we do just that. We must realize that no matter how hard or how long we work, there is a point when work is not enough. We must acknowledge our own limitations as humans and rely on God.
Paul says there are three things that set us right with God:
Seeing that the job is too big for us.
Understanding that only God can do it.
Trusting God to work.
This is what sets you right with God. By God. Sheer Gift! A gift we cannot earn, but a gift we receive out of grace.
Do you find yourself getting caught up in the ability of your own hands rather than trusting God to do what He says He will do? This happens to be one of my greatest struggles in life. I'm a fixer. For the longest time (and even now if I'm not careful) I believed that if I just worked hard enough, or if I just gave enough, then I could fix any problem. What has been a very recent lesson for me is that I found by doing that, I wasn't fully trusting God with the situation. We have to be careful that we don't misplace our trust. Hard work is a very good thing, but every idol is a good thing we misplaced; we (I) must be careful that we don't take our trust out of the hands of God.
Beginning in V. 6, Paul points to another well-known man of the Old Testament. He looks to King David to support this claim of faith.
David was indeed a man after God's heart, but he also is one known for his mistakes. Even so, in Psalm 32 (where v. 7 is originally found), David is found not guilty before heaven. Paul looks to a man who botched it up (as we all have) and points out his acceptance into heaven. He is pointing to this place of faith which leads to righteousness.
David was found righteous apart from his works because he acknowledged his guilt and cast himself in faith upon the mercy of God. So must we. How fortunate are we that God would wipe our slate clean from sins for no reason other than He chooses to. Because He loves us.
In a few days we will look more at works as we continue in v. 8. I would encourage you to take time for a careful examination of your life.
Do you find yourself getting caught up in the ability of your own hands rather than trusting God to do what He says He will do?
V. 4 says even if you do a good job...
Even IF, it's not enough. It's not a wage earned, but a gift given.

Power Stride
September 22, 2008
That's the name of the new workout class I joined on Friday mornings. I have to thank Lisa for mentioning baby boot camp in her last post. I've been trying for weeks to find a local mom and baby fitness group to no avail; after reading Lisa's post I googled bootcamp kingston and came up with the group I was looking for (who knew 'body now 4 moms' kingston wouldn't work in a google search because they are 'body now 4 mums'). Anyhow the point is I found the group, but I am not hard core enough for boot camp…this lady doesn't run if she has a choice. So I signed Isaac and I up for Power Stride and Conditioning. We started last week and it was a pretty good workout, but still not super heavy cardio…so I may have to work on that on my own.
Isaac didn't really appreciate the class. He cried for the longest period in his short life as there was no way I could go pick him up and still do the excersices and no one else was going to get their kids (ahhh the power of peer pressure). So I'd say he got the better cardio workout; he doesn't seem any worse for the wear though by the end of the 45 min he was asleep (it's hard work to scream at the top of your lungs for 30 minutes or so). Anyhow I think we might try the Ergo for next week as he is getting heavy to wear on my front and I think I'll stop enjoying classes pretty quickly if they consist of my child being the only one losing it in his stroller.
March Update
March 3, 2008
I'm going to take an optomistic approach here and say so far so good. In reality, I kind of cheated on Saturday as Jason and I only got 40 min or so in with the dogs, so to reach my hour goal I counted 20 min of grocery shopping as walking (cheating yes I know…but noone likes to fail on the first day!). To make up for it I went for a two hour snowshoe on Sunday with my friendly dog and his pal Anouk, the weather was gorgeous and I would have gone longer if I didn't have things to do in the afternoon. Of course I got my hour in this morning (hooray for walking partners), and anticipate no problems for the rest of the week, since it is just part of our weekday routine. On Friday afternoon however, we leave for Florida, so wish me luck in eeking out a hour (and the energy) to walk on Saturday while we frantically drive towards vacation bliss (because who are we kidding, driving just does not count as part of the vacation, it is simply a means to an end).
One Month Challenge
February 26, 2008
After reading Jen and Christy's blogs about one month for my health, I decided to jump on the bandwagon. I've said I am going to walk for one hour EVERYDAY in March. Now this isn't groundbreaking, I know, but I'm setting myself up for success here. I already walk seven days a week already with my dogs. But on the weekends I tend to slack off and take the dogs to the field so they can run and chase the ball…this does not really count as a walk for me….I do very little exercise. I also want to continue taking the dogs to the field on weekends as this is their big 'steam release' after five days of leash walking, so essentially this means I just need to take a bit more time on the weekends and the dogs get two walks, one on-leash and one off-leash.
The only challenge I really foresee here is the week of vacation we're taking in March. Now I'm pretty sure I'll get more than a hour of walking in at the theme parks everyday, but during our driving days I'm going to have to make a concentrated effort to get a walk in. Wish me luck!
The Green Monster
February 8, 2008
We've been living in Kingston now for over a year and a half, but have yet to establish a strong group of friends and acquaintances, not like we had in Comox. Now this is mostly our fault, we've treated this posting as temporary right from the start (I mean we were only going to be here for two years) and we've been busy with work/school/life and haven't really gotten to involved with the local community (ie. going to local theatre, joining a club, starting a sport..etc.). Don't get me wrong we've got some great friends here and enjoy get-togethers and game nights; but I don't have the same 'available' friend structure I had back home. By this I mean someone I can call up short notice and say, hey lets go……(for coffee, to a show, shopping, walk the dogs etc.). But because he's on course with a large group of displaced guys Jason has no problem finding someone to go do something with (I mean when you live in a room with three other grown men, it's not hard to find excuses to go out), and I'm ashamed to admit I'm jealous.
Now , it's not like I'm not welcome to join them (most of the time), but for me a trip to Futureshop and Audiotronics does not make a fun afternoon (just as I'm sure Jason doesn't really enjoy shopping for fabric and trolling consignment baby stores). I guess I need to bite the bullet and start making some phone calls so that next time I want to kill a few hours in the afternoon by going out for coffee, or catching a 'chick-flick' that does not appeal to the boys, I can find someone who is free.

AC Controller using MOSFETs
Particularly with low voltages, triacs are usually used as control elements for ac voltages. The disadvantage, as so often is the case, is in the power dissipated in the control element, which is quite evident for currents greater than 1 ampère. In such cases, it is essential to use a heatsink for the triac. If you want to control the brightness of a halogen lamp using such an arrangement, for example, the voltage drop across the triac also results in a significant reduction in the maximum brightness of the lamp.

In this 10th and nearly final article pulled from Electric Cars: What Early Adopters & First Followers Want — a new report from CleanTechnica, EV Obsession, and GAS2 — we get to an exciting topic — EV Revolution!!
Revolution, baby!
I've mentioned "EV revolution" a few times already in this report. What am I talking about? By "EV revolution," I'm referring to EVs taking over the personal transportation market in a relatively short period of time, something which I'm convinced will happen due to the significant benefits of electric cars (eight of them, by my count). However, when that will really start to happen is very debatable, even among those who are convinced it is on the way. So, I posed a handful of questions to the respondents to crowdsource opinions on this matter.
The first such question on this matter was, "In which year do you think electric cars will make up at least 10% of US car sales in a single month?" 33% of EV drivers and 33% of non-EV drivers responded 2020. In second place, 13% of EV drivers and 17% of non-EV drivers chose 2018. In third place, 17% of EV drivers and 11% of non-EV drivers chose 2025+. In addition, significant percentages chose 2022 (11% and 9%), 2019 (9% and 11%), and 2017 (4% and 7%). In other words, responses were all over the place, but 83% of EV drivers and 89% of non-EV drivers see this happening within the next decade.
The next question raised the bar quite a bit. It asked, "In which year do you think electric cars will make up at least 50% of US car sales in a single month?"
71% of EV drivers and 63% of non-EV drivers chose 2025+. Only 8% of EV drivers and 11% of non-EV drivers see this happening by 2020.
In other words, while these EV enthusiasts see strong electric car sales growth coming in the next few years, they think we are still at least a decade away from electric cars accounting for the majority of the new car market.
With Tesla Motors being the clear leader in the EV market from most angles, I also wanted to better understand how respondents felt about the company and how disruptive (economically speaking) they thought Tesla would be. The responses shocked me, even knowing that Tesla was a very popular company.
70% of EV drivers and 71% of non-EV drivers think Tesla will disrupt the auto industry, 16% and 18% are not sure, respectively, and 13% and 11% don't think Tesla will disrupt the industry. On the whole, that's a strong expectation that Tesla will really shake things up in one of the largest industries in the world.
Competitive advantages Tesla currently has over conventional automakers include the Supercharger network, lower battery prices, the under-construction Tesla Gigafactory (which will further reduce battery prices), a reputation for high-performance and hi-tech cars, frequent over-the-air software updates to fix or improve cars, a sales and service-center system that trumps dealerships from the consumer perspective, and an undeniable "cool" factor.
There's still a lot of room for other EV pioneers like Nissan, GM, Mitsubishi, BMW, and Volkswagen to succeed in this realm, but many responses to this survey seem to indicate that the best way to do so is through association and partnership with Tesla.
Specifically, partnering on the Supercharger network and perhaps future battery production plans could be very helpful to these other automakers. And simply being "friends with" the "cool kid on the block" could open up more consumers to their brands. These are big decisions for the heads of large auto companies to consider, but if I were in their shoes, I believe I would be working feverishly to walk alongside Tesla and partner on critical pieces of the EV lifestyle — particularly, Supercharging capability and growth.
No matter what EV consumers buy, though, one thing is clear: they love driving electric. We asked the EV drivers, "Are you happy that you bought/leased your electric vehicle(s)?" 96% responded "Yes," only 3% responded "Meh," and only 1% responded "No." See if you can find any other consumers so happy with their vehicles.
Also, just before this report was released, it was revealed in the latest Consumer Reports Annual Auto Survey that the three cars topping the list for owner satisfaction were electric cars — #1 Tesla Model S, #2 Chevy Volt, #3 Nissan LEAF. In other words, the owners of these electric cars are happier with their cars, on average, than the owners of all the gasoline and diesel models on the market. That's pretty telling.
And to reiterate a point made earlier, friends and family who drove their EVs seemed to love them as well. Under 1% disagreed with the statement, "People who drive my EV tend to love it," and only moderately so.

FYI… I'm THAT person that keeps asking people what their New Year resolutions are. I know I know its pretty cliché, but it's kinda refreshing talking about New Year resolutions or goals whatever you like to call them, well I think so anyway. It's also probably a little personal, I realised this whilst in the car with my brother and his wife a couple weeks ago when I decided to start quizzing them about their new year resolutions and they responded with what I considered to be "on the surface stuff" and so I kept probing trying to get to the deep and juicy stuff, which probably is none of my business but if you know me, I like to go there and very little on this earth is "none of my business". But why do you care Mati you ask?? Well, like it said, very little on this earth is none of my business, but in this case it may have something to do with the fact when it comes to my own resolutions for 2016… I'm drawing blanks.
You know when you're sitting watching homeland and then magesti goes. Or when you're in the middle of watching a movie on a flight and they turn off the in-flight entertainment. Blank screen. Nothing…that's what's happening. Initially I was worried about it, but I realised it's because I don't worry about the future anymore, I know God has my back. So, I'll take it as it comes. So there you go, no list of resolutions. BUT. One thing I will put out there, I'm just going to choose to be happy in everything I do and you can certainly hold me accountable to that.
One more thing. I'm going to be pushing my creative boundaries, exploring different styling techniques. For example, at the moment I'm very much exploring oversize everything at the moment, menswear pieces like this black Long Tee, naturally I'd opt for some sneakers this time i've paired it with some cute sandals for a more feminine look, as for Tapi he's keeping it street. Get yours here and create your own look.

Plan – Do – Review – Adjust was an approach which was discussed by Art Jonak at a seminar I attended this autumn. It sounds pretty simple when you see it, yet it has power – power to change your business to such an extent that you suddenly will find yourself on the road to success.
Of course you need to plan! Most people who join a network marketing opportunity let it "flow". As a result they find themselves in a position where they are only the observers of success. Folks – network marketing is a business not a game! there is no business which you can develop without a plan. It would be like building a house with out one. There is no way this leads to success!
As the famous German poet Johann Wolfgang v. Goethe said – "It is not enough to know, you also need to apply it"!
There are so many people out there who gather information and more information, they list pros and cons and "know it all" yet they never ever make a move to pull all of it into life. Eventually some of them even claim "to have worked so much and yet they didn't become successful" – well of course not – a house doesn't get built by studying the plan!
There are of course those who plan, who do and yet realise at some stage that they are not getting to where they want to be – you need to give it some time to find out that you are actually stuck but if you do, take step 3 and start to REVIEW – list what has worked and what hasn't ask those you co-operate with how they see certain things and then make a change
But be careful – make 1 change at a time only! WHY? Well if you change several things at the same time you have no chance of knowing which of the changes turned the ship around!
If you want to build your network marketing business in an entrepreneurial style you need to apply this process again and again. It is the shortest way to YOUR SUCCESS!
Have fun investigating this idea and DO it!

FACE UP is the monthly magazine (Redemptorist Commuications) for young people who want something deeper-and that's what it provides. FACE UP began publishing in January 2001 and is aimed at the 14-18 year-old age group.
Each issue of FACE UP informs and entertains on personal development, social awareness, spirituality and justice issues. The magazine also contains many of the normal ingredients of teen magazines including features on current trends, fashion and media personalities.
During the summer of 2010, the SERVE volunteers that were working on projects in Brazil, India, Thailand, South Africa, Mozambique and Zambia were asked to compile stories of the people they met, and to highlight the plight of "teens in poverty" in those countries. These articles would then be published by FACE UP in each monthly edition from September 2010 – June 2011.

Last Monday night at Mullin ny Carty had the Explorers of the "Wolf Pack' learning about the perils of hypothermia which, considering the weather we have been having in the Island was quite appropriate. The Explorers were given skin thermometers and took the temperature of their forearms before pressing it against different surfaces or materials. After a minute they re took the temperature and noted the difference.
Surfaces ranged from wood, ceramic and plastic to metal ( in our case the sink top). Materials included wool, cotton and foam. The real killer was the 'wet sleeve'.
The efficacy of a storm shelter was demonstrated when four Explorers took the ambient air temperature which was 8 degrees and then after 5 minutes in the shelter they took the temperature which was a comfortable 20 degrees. Storm shelters are – light weight – compact – ranges from 4 to 10 persons – not expensive – highly recommended by the guys and girls off the 'Wolf Pack' as a good thing to carry in your pack at all times.Tags: Wolf Pack Explorers

This is a recipe with flair! The presentation is part of the overall recipe, and it makes a great centerpiece your Halloween party.
On your table, hang Halloween plastic streamers (the kind with the ghosts and/or witches and cats) around the edges, about one or two inches down. Place a white or light-colored table cloth over the streamers, covering them completely. You can also get a large table cloth that will hang near to the floor.
Under the table place an electric lantern – these usually take two D batteries and are for camping – they throw off almost no heat. You can even cover it with orange or red film. You will then see the shadows of the ghosts, witches and cats through the table cloth. Spoooky!
For the punch, you need a glass punch bowl with a hollowed-out raised base. Take the base of the punch bowl and put underneath either a small flashing electric light or just a regular one. They are small, about tea-light size, and you get them at dollar stores. Putting the punch bowl on top with liquid is a great effect, especially when you lower the lights. Kids and adults will love it!
The party punch is a combination of severed ice hands, eyes, Jello wigglers and the punch itself. You'll need:
- Grape drink crystal mix
- A package of new, unused white latex gloves (doctor style)
- Grapes (red and/or green)
- Two ice cube trays
- Jello – any colour but orange
- Orange drink crystal mix
- 2 litres of either ginger ale or 7up/Sprite – For an alcoholic variation, add Malibu or fruity rum
Severed Hand
Mix up the grape drink mix. Put on and wash the gloves and rinse well. Turn them inside out and fill them with grape drink. Tie off the wrists and put them in the freezer. Freeze entirely.
Eyeball Grapes
Wash and separate the grapes. Fill the ice cube trays 3/4 full and put in the freezer – my friend peels the grapes, I don't – it's up to you. Don't let the water completely freeze! After about 45 minutes – your freezer will be different so check after thirty minutes – take the grapes and pop them into the partially frozen water. Wait another 20 to 30 minutes and then top up any cubes that aren't filled or any grapes that aren't fully covered. Freeze entirely.
A variation is to cut the grape in half so that it has not only an 'eye' but an 'eyeball' with the center part. Have fun with it.
Jello Wigglers
Make your jello in a square tray. While mixing, either increase mix or decrease water as if you're making Jello Wigglers. Let it set.
Main Punch
Mix 2 litres of orange drink mix into punch bowl, and mix in 2 litres of soda.
Cut up the thick jello or just mangle with a spoon (good for young kids to do) and put it into the punch – this adds the slime factor.
Once the Severed Hands are frozen, carefully peel off the gloves. If a finger breaks off, it just adds to the ghoulish ambiance! Put the Severed Hands in the punch. Now add the grape "eye ball" ice cubes (or save them for other drinks). Done!
The effect is wonderful, as the colors swirl and the punch bowl and table is lit underneath. Makes a great prop and delicious punch for kids!
PS. Use what ever punch recipes you like, just use complementary colours and flavors. Happy Halloween.

Different Strokes
I was considering a polemic on the nation-state and its component parts, and the myth we term unity even as we ignore its inconsistencies and violence. Rivetting eh?
But I read this first thing in the morning and I think it says more, and rather, something else. Do go read Vivek Menezes' piece, "Bringing it All Back Home (To Shillong)" on 3quarksdaily.
An excerpt:
The story of western music in the North East of India starts with the church, more precisely with one very unusual missionary from Wales named Thomas Jones.
In 1841, the young Weshman clambered up into the Khasi hills from the opposite direction from the one we had taken along the Guwahati-Shillong highway. At that time, the capital of Assam was the ancient Khasi stronghold of Sohra (Cherrapunjee), and this is where Jones headed after a long boat ride from Calcutta, up the Hooghly and the Sunderbans to Sylhet far below the tribal highlands.
Thomas Jones is pure paradox. He belonged to a rigorous and conservative missionary order, but never converted anyone in his years in the Khasi hills. Eventually, he was considered disreputable by his own order, which expelled him, and he died in a kind of disgrace in Calcutta, where his tomb lay abandoned until the Khasis came looking for it.

On November 18, 2014, Cherri Barmore achieved her 20 year anniversary of becoming a Sweet Adeline. After 20 years, Cherri still enjoys singing and ringing chords, just as much as she did the very first time.
Since 2006, Cherri not only sings, but she is the DIRECTOR of Monroe Sweet Adelines. As director, she chooses the music, interprets it as she chooses, and then imparts her "take" on the song to the other singers, which creates a unique, specific sound, which is like no other chorus's interpretation and presentation of a song. We love you Cherri, and appreciate your dedication and loyalty to your art form, and to this chorus. Here's to the next 20!
The Monroe chorus has lost members over the past year, because of family priorities, and members have moved away. So Cherri would like to see new faces and hear new voices of girls and ladies in the northeast Louisiana area, who would enjoy singing and MUSICALLY ENHANCING LIVES ...

Evidence-based identification of the most important livestock related zoonotic diseases in Kampala, Uganda

Urban and peri-urban livestock farming in developing countries plays an important role in food security in cities; however it brings with it zoonotic risks. The present study was conducted to identify the most important livestock farming-related zoonotic diseases among the human population in urban and peri-urban areas of Kampala, Uganda and to assess the risks from such farming. A framework for identifying livestock farming-related significant zoonoses was developed. The process consisted of screening of medical record summaries for zoonotic diagnoses, selection of the zoonoses which are related to livestock farming, case estimation of the identified zoonoses and evidence-based reassurance of the importance of diseases. Medical records in the Mulago National Referral Hospital were used for the analysis. Leaders and residents of 75 Local Councils (LC1s: villages; 48 urban, 11 peri-urban and 16 rural) randomly selected in Kampala were interviewed for information regarding livestock farming systems, value chains and use of medical service units. Twelve zoonoses were identified in the screening and four out of them were related to livestock farming: animal sourced food-borne gastroenteritis, brucellosis, Taenia solium neuro-cysticercosis and Mycobacterium bovis tuberculosis. Livestock farming, value chain and severity of the diseases confirmed that all four diseases were important. Poor geographical correlation between animals in peri-urban and rural areas and patients in urban areas suggested that the majority of these zoonoses were caused by informally-marketed foods.

No. 221, 14 November 1996
HUNGARIAN PRESIDENT VISITS UKRAINE. Hungarian President Arpad Goncz
began a three-day official visit to Ukraine on 14 November, ITAR-TASS
reported. Goncz will visit Uzhhorod, a Transcarpathian city with a large
Hungarian population. He will also discuss economic relations. The
Hungarian-Ukrainian trade turnover grew from $300 million in 1993 to
$664 million in 1995. Hungarian companies had invested $23.2 million in
the Ukrainian economy by the middle of 1996. -- Oleg Varfolomeyev
HUNGARIAN OIL COMPANY TURNS AGAINST RUSSIAN PARTNER. A senior official
at the Hungarian Oil and Gas Company (MOL) on 13 November criticized
Panrusgaz for its intention to sell natural gas to large-scale consumers
from a new pipeline that is being built through Hungary, Hungarian
dailies reported. MOL officials insist that they have been given the
exclusive right to sell and distribute gas on the domestic market.
Panrusgaz is a joint venture between MOL and the Russian giant Gazprom,
with 50% ownership each. Panrusgaz head Mikhail Rahimkhulov was quoted
in the daily Nepszabadsag on 13 November as saying the joint venture
would sell gas 15-20% cheaper than MOL. In reaction, MOL officials said
that Russian and Hungarian interministerial agreements guarantee that
the new pipeline will be built, owned, and operated by MOL. They added
that Panrusgaz could sell 1 billion cubic meters of gas to Hungarian
consumers from the pipeline, but only through MOL. -- Zsofia Szilagyi
NO PROGRESS IN HUNGARY'S NEGOTIATIONS WITH WTO. No substantial headway
has been made between the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Tourism and
the World Trade Organization (WTO) over a major dispute concerning
Hungarian agricultural export subsidies, Hungarian media reported on 13
November. Hungary has been trying to convince Argentina, Australia,
Canada, New Zealand, Thailand and the U.S. -- the six WTO member states
that filed a complaint against Hungary -- to allow the government to
continue subsidizing its deficit-ridden, but large export-revenue-
producing sector. During the Uruguay round of the GATT negotiations,
Hungary undertook to reduce subsidies on agriculture exports but made
its calculations on the basis of erroneous data. The six countries
subsequently filed a complaint with the WTO, saying that Hungarian
agriculture subsidies were well above the levels set by WTO and agreed
upon by Hungary. -- Zsofia Szilagyi

Located in the middle of a field near a lake outside of Oslo.
Chimera's First Geohash[edit]
Sort of.
Left house at 13:00 to rollerblade to hash point. Went off the edge of my map at least half an hour before reaching the coordinates. Overshot the turnoff and ended up in the next town, Sørkedalen. Oops. Turned around and found the road I should have taken. It was dirt and gravel and full of potholes. Made my way along it anyway. Reached the road that wound along the field the hash point was in. It was gravel and overgrown with weeds. I didn't bring other footwear with me to cut down on things to carry, so rollerblading was out. There was also a good chance said field would have been surrounded with electric fencing like the rest of the fields in the area (lots of horses there). Decided I got close enough, struggled back down the dirt road and made my way back. Arrived home at 20:00.
Conclusion: Chimera needs a better map.
Still need to get better at this whole wiki thing.

The photos and the recipe directly below are the gnocchi I made for Sunday night dinner at my folks home this past weekend. Oh my god, were they awesome! So, I want to share them with you. I'm posting two reliable versions of this exquisite dish! There are several recipes for these on the internet, so the first version is my adaptation. Generally speaking, recipes include spinach, ricotta, some parmigiano, a bit of flour and eggs. I made the ricotta from scratch the morning before (see recipe below under March 2012). Out gardening in the yard that afternoon, I noticed a robust patch of rainbow chard that had happily overwintered. That's when I got the idea to put these together and revisit this favorite dish. And don't worry about homemade-homegrown ingredients. Make life easy: buy some decent ricotta and some spinach or chard, and you will see that these are really easy to whip together. Enjoy!
- In a large pot of water, blanch 1 big bunch of chard, spinach, or other green until just wilted. Hey, why not experiment with some combination for something truly unique. Let drain a few minutes and then squeeze out liquid. Chop very finely.
- In a large bowl, thoroughly combine minced greens, 2 cups whole-milk ricotta, 1/2 cup grated parmigiano cheese, 1/2 cup flour, 2 large beaten egg yolks, 1/2 tsp. salt, 1/2 tsp. freshly grated pepper, and a big punch nutmeg.
- Grab a small clump of the mixture and roll out on a floured surface a 5-6" long rope to about 3/4 inch in thickness. Cut rope into 3/4 inch pieces, and with floured hands, roll into oblong gnocchi. Place on a flour-covered tray.
- Bring a pot of water to a low boil. You don't want the water to boil too hard or these delicate dumplings could disintegrate! Add about half gnocchi to water. In a few minutes they will rise to the top; let them boil an additional minute and then remove from pot with a slotted spoon. Allow them to drain in a stainer for a minute or two.
- Simultaneously while boiling gnocchi, bring 1/4 cup butter and 12-16 sages leaves to barely a simmer. Place gnocchi on a platter or in individual serving bowls and spoon sage butter over gnocchi. Serve immediately with a dusting of grated parmigiano.
This second recipe comes from Cucina Italian magazine. I published it in Casa Fiore #15 ~ June 2005.
Genova and the greater Italian Riviera (located in the northwestern Italian region of Liguria) offer a unique cuisine to satisfy a diverse array of tastes. Hemmed in between the vast Mediterranean and the mountainous "Entroterra" region, the Ligurian kitchen is dominated by local seafood and fish and fresh vegetables and herbs. This two part series will feature vegetable and herb pasta dishes, one that is world famous, and another that should be. I hope you will enjoy these tastes of Genova as much as I do!
1. Place 1.5 LBS. SWISS CHARD, BROCCOLI RAPA, ARUGULA, OR SPINACH (I prefer spinach) in a large skillet over medium heat with a little bit of water. Cover and cook until wilted. Drain, roughly chop, and squeeze out some of the excess water without wringing the greens too dry. Chop very finely by hand and place in a mixing bowl.
2. Add 2 CUPS GOOD QUALITY RICOTTA, 2 BEATEN EGGS, AND 1 TBSP. SALT and mix well.
3. Add 1 CUP FLOUR and mix until forming a wet dough.
4. With floured hands, pinch off tablespoon-size amounts of the dough and roll gently to form oblong balls. Place on a sheet covered with wax paper until ready to cook.
5. Bring a large, salted pot of water to a boil. Add the gnocchi. Cook until they rise to the surface, count to 10, and remove from the water with a slotted spoon.
6. Melt 1/2 STICK (OR MORE) OF BUTTER over low heat. Add 20 FRESH SAGE LEAVES and cook until soft and fragrant (2-3 minutes).
7. Gently toss gnocchi with sage-butter. Dust with plenty of grated PARMIGIANO CHEESE and serve.

I am not that smart,
nor (indeed) brave.
And my art,
it doth no longer
Who am I trying to save?
I eat stars,
like unripe apples
& nearly choke
on fiery cores /
Am lost, yet found.
Love's biggest fool,
and yet
Love's biggest cause.
A cause hopeful or hopeless,
I will let you, dear reader,
And they say
that a one-eyed man is King
in the Valley of the Blind /
But my heart is like a prison
in which I lie confined.
I'll drink all thee world's oceans
just to find her shore /
My wretched soul
a restless castaway,
doomed to forever
And yet!
And yet,
lest I damn forget!!
I would give it all up,
give it all away,
I hope she'll understand /
For just one moment
in her company,
to one last time
her salt-stained hand.
I am merely
a Gypsy Pirate,
on these decks tonight
more than a little
seasick & homesick
and possessed
by the fullest of full moon /
countless loves
and lovers,
Gone too soon.
But today,
on this Friday Good,
I confess /
I will eat my bodyweight
in chocolate,
no less!!
It is true
that many a fair maiden
got my body & my bed /
But you were
one of the few (my dear)
that got my heart
(but much
more important than that)
my head.
You left, I stayed.
And I am no longer afraid!
I still do not know
who I am trying to save /
But I am no longer afraid!!
And much
in the same (yet different) way
that the clouds tonight
hold (briefly)
onto the moon,
I (too)
hold onto memories
of holding the salt-stained
hand of
a lovely mermaid...
Now I finally see / it was only me
that I was trying to save...
And I will never
ever (ever)
be afraid.
I am
no longer

Westbrook, MAINE - The Maine Democratic Party (MDP) today announced that Congressman Joaquin Castro (D-TX) will serve as the keynote speaker at the 2018 Maine Democratic Party Convention. More than a thousand Democrats from all over the state are expected to gather in Lewiston on May 19th and 20th to take part in the convention, which will continue the theme from the 2018 caucuses "Victory Starts Here", and ramp up efforts to elect Democrats up and down the ballot in November. Congressman Castro is schedule to speak at 4:00 p.m. on Saturday, May 19th.
MDP Chairman Phil Bartlett issued the following statement:
"Congressman Castro has spent his entire career making sure that all Americans have a fair shot at success and equal opportunity to build better lives for themselves and their families. Along with Congresswoman Pingree, he is an incredible champion for middle-class Americans in Congress, and we are excited to have him join us in Lewiston for our convention.
"And like the Congressman, Maine Democrats are ready to demonstrate that we are the party that fights to make sure everyone has access to affordable health care, that everyone has the opportunity to earn a living wage, and that government works for Maine people - not against them."
Congressman Castro hails from San Antonio, Texas, and is a second generation Mexican American. At 28 years old, Castro was elected to the Texas Legislature. He served five terms as state representative for District 125. In 2012, he was elected to serve in the U.S House of Representatives for Texas' 20th Congressional District.
Congressman Castro sits on the House Intelligence and Foreign Affairs Committees, and currently serves as Chief Deputy Whip for House Democrats. As a Congressman, Castro has been a tireless advocate for his constituents. From supporting military families to investing in education, Castro remains committed to fighting for great public schools and universities, a sound health care system, and good-paying jobs for all Americans.
The 2018 Democratic State Convention will take place on Friday, May 18th - Saturday, May 19th at The Colisee in Lewiston. Registration opens at 12:00 p.m. on Friday, May 18th and is followed by a weekend filled with remarks by Maine's Democratic candidates, activist trainings, and party business. The tentative schedule can be found HERE, and MDP will release more information as convention draws closer.

Miss Elaine Beange is in charge of A Level English Literature and A Level English Language.
Our popular A level English Literature (EDEXCEL) course requires students to study and enjoy a range of texts from different periods. As well as studying individual drama, poetry and prose texts, students learn how to compare texts and link them to their social and historical context. One of the requirements of the course is to complete a coursework essay comparing two linked texts. A great emphasis is put on developing independent research skills, essay writing and delivering presentations to other members of the class.
Our equally popular A level English Language (AQA) course stems from its topical and practical nature. The course enables students to further their interest and enjoyment in the use of English through learning more about the way the language is structured and how it functions in real contexts. Students most often enthuse about the creative writing coursework they produce and the language investigation they conduct independently in year 13.
Media Studies A Level (OCR) appeals to students who like to combine practical work with the study of media theories and concepts. It is an exciting and demanding course that challenges students to produce media artefacts in print and on film, but also, to prepare for examinations that test their theoretical knowledge and critical awareness of the media. Media students are creative workers, but are also able to work independently and be well-organised.
More information on all of our courses at A Level is communicated to parents and pupils in year 11 during the Sixth Form options process in lessons and at the Sixth Form options evening held at school every November.

I hate when I'm wearing pants that aren't quite skinny pants, but I tuck them into boots anyway, and then they puff out at the knee. Like I'm wearing harem pants or pantaloons. It makes me feel self-conscious. Even though, I doubt people are looking at me thinking, "Who does that girl think she is? Does she think she's a pirate? Does she think she's MC Hammer? ….Bitch."
Pants problems. Monday pants problems.
