McGrath to be inducted into ICC Hall of Fame
Dubai, Dec 31 : The International Cricket Council (ICC) Monday announced that former Australia pace bowler Glenn McGrath will be inducted into its Cricket Hall of Fame Jan 4 during the lunch interval of the third Test match between Australia and Sri Lanka in Sydney.
McGrath becomes the 68th male member of the Hall of Fame and joins fellow 2012-13 inductees West Indian Brian Lara and England's Enid Bakewell in being recognised by the ICC and the living members of the Hall of Fame.
While Lara and Bakewell were inducted in September at the ICC Awards, McGrath will be inducted at his home ground, the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG). A fourth and final inductee of 2012-13 will be announced next summer.
McGrath, who represented Australia in 124 Test matches between 1993 and 2007 claiming 563 Test wickets at an average of 21.64, still has more Test wickets than any other seam bowler currently in the game or retired.
He also represented Australia in 250 One-Day Internationals (ODI), claiming 381 wickets at an average of 22.02 and was part of the Australian side that won three successive World Cups (1999, 2003 and 2007).
McGrath still holds the record for most wickets in World Cups with 71 scalps and his figures of 7-15 against Namibia are the best in the competition's history.
McGrath said of the induction: "I am honoured that the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame voting academy, which includes all the current living Hall of Famers, have nominated and voted me to be inducted into the Hall of Fame.
"I am very much looking forward to celebrating the occasion on 4 January with not only my friends and family, but all those at the SCG which is of course like a second home to me." (IANS)

I am still thinking about that epublishing post, guys. It might be done next week, if I'm not in the wilds of Novel Revision Deathmarch. This Friday's writing post is brought to you by Reader A. C., who wrote me last week with the question:
How do you shut off the fear of being judged? I feel like if I was to release my writing to the world I would wake up every night in a cold sweat thinking "Oh my god, people are reading what I wrote and judging me!"
Which is really a very good question. This is the single biggest block to a lot of writers submitting their work. A lot of the anxiety[1] stems from conflating judgment of your work with judgment and rejection of you. The rest comes from that old bugaboo, the Inner Critic.
Get used to it, because this never goes away. One's method of dealing with it gets refined, but the anxiety over judgment and rejection is a Basic Human Fear, and it does not go away. We are cooperative creatures, and that anxiety over rejection is one component that helps us be cooperative instead of narrowly self-interested to a degree that would jeopardize our survival as a species. (I know this is a laughably simplistic view of a complex social-sciences issue. Bear with me.)
You as a writer will never get used to being rejected. At least, I never have, and no writer I've ever spoken to has. There's always the heart-in-mouth panic when the agent doesn't return a call, the nail-biting when the editor has the manuscript. Writing is something performed essentially in solitude–even if there are other people in the room, even if you are collaborating, there is still those moments of just you and the words on the page, and that's IT. You have no measure of whether or not it's good except your own, initially, and we are taught not to trust our own judgment on this level in a hundred little ways every day. The delayed-gratification aspect of writing–months or even years until something is accepted or sees print–pours fuel on the flames. Workshops and critique groups, well, we all know how I feel about those. Then there are reviews, and fan/hate mail, and that particular brand of hell known as bad Amazon reviews…
I struggle to think of a career that is more perfectly designed to turn a reasonably-adjusted human being into a f!cking neurotic. I really can't think of one. (Politics doesn't count; people are neurotics before they go into politics.)
We've got this anxiety. It's not going to go away. So let's pull an Einstein. Instead of trying to figure out why the speed of light is what it is, Einstein just took it as a constant and went on trying to answer questions around it. We all know the anxiety is there, so let's talk about what to do about it.
My advice here basically boils down to three simple words.
Do it anyway.
If you want to be a writer, if you want to get published, you can't afford to sit around wailing or to be crippled by that anxiety. Look, I can tell you the worst thing that's going to happen. Brace yourself, it's right here.
The worst thing that can happen is you get rejection slips. Everyone gets rejection slips. It's a piece of paper with someone's opinion on it. Big deal. So is the newspaper and a billboard. The opinion may be backed up by something, may not. But in the end it is only a piece of paper.
It is up to you to start a fire with it.
Slight side note: Yes, this piece of paper means you haven't sold your work. If you're lucky, it has a piece of personal feedback on it. There are stages to rejection just like everything else, and a personal note on a rejection letter is a step up. But a lot of writers shoot themselves in the foot by not taking those personal notes seriously. If an editor is sending out fifty rejection slips a day (and some do) a personal note is GOLD. It means they took time to go ABOVE AND BEYOND, and to tell you the thing that stopped them taking your story, or offered encouragement because you're close but not quite there yet. Plenty of new writers don't understand what a personal rejection note means and they get discouraged. It's one of the last gates before acceptance.
All right, back on target. Here's the thing: you have to find a way to make that anxiety a spur to be better. You have to find the way to turn the anxiety around so it's working FOR you instead of bleeding off energy.
To be absolutely, honestly truthful…my way is sheer stubbornness. You don't like it? You don't? Well, I'm gonna show YOU! I'm gonna get so good, I'm gonna work so hard, that I'm gonna be able to laugh in your FACE! Yeah! HOW DO YOU LIKE THEM APPLES? It's the same reflex that got me through my childhood, high school, boyfriends with quick tempers and quicker fists, and every other setback since. It's getting knocked to the floor six times…and getting up seven, because you're too stupid-dumb-stubborn to know when to quit.
It's not elegant and it's not pretty, but it gets me through the rejection-anxiety. Other writers use the anxiety in different ways, but always to bring themselves back to the page. The chances of getting something accepted for publication go up astronomically when you actually consistently produce work. They go up even more when you listen to the rejection and keep writing. They go up even more when you listen to the personalized rejection slips and keep writing.
Are you noting the theme here? The only way through this is to put your head down and keep writing. Find the way to put that anxiety in the traces to pull your plow. Otherwise, it will run around inside your head breaking dishes and making a nuisance of itself. Once you get it harnessed, once you figure out your way around it, it works as hard as the demon it is. But now it's working for you instead of against you.
If there was an easier way, someone would have found it by now. That someone would be mega-rich and wouldn't tell the secret anyway. So, we have to work with what we have.
And there's a funny thing about the process of using the anxiety instead of letting it use you. The bravery or stubbornness or what-have-you that you find to get you through it starts cropping up in other areas of your life. Sooner or later it proves useful elsewhere.
If nothing else, that's a reason to keep writing too.
I can't give you a magic pill to make the anxiety go away. I can tell you that you're not alone. And I can tell you something I learned in dance class. It's easy to be invisible in dance class, because everyone else is so worried about where their hands and feet are, they're not looking at how big your ass is.
In the end, someone judging you on your writing, or making personal statements about you on the strength (or not) of your writing, is only making a statement about themselves. (And not a nice one.) We're all afraid of what we write "opening the kimono" and telling people about our fears, showing them the way to hurt us. This is not a reason to stop writing. This is even more of a reason to tell the truth, to find your way around that anxiety, and to shame the Devil, as the saying goes.
Nobody whose opinion you need to be worried about is going to judge you personally, the way you're afraid of, on your writing. I can't be any clearer than that. But the anxiety over if someone might is actually a gift. If you can find out how to harness it inside your head and make it work to get you on the page every day, to tell the truth and take your chances, to spit in the eye of Destiny and spin the roulette wheel…
…then, my friends, your success is only a matter of time.
Now go get it.
[1] I am using the word "anxiety" instead of fear because I believe it's more precise. Fear is a survival mechanism. Anxiety is a social mechanism. I agree with Gavin de Becker that there is a huge difference.

CATS…for lack of anything else at 5am
I love my fat cat. I love all cats. Cats are awesome. I'll love YOUR cat.
I adopted fat cat from the shelter when she was a weee bebeh. She was feisty and mean, just like she is now. She's just fatter and free of fleas and ear-mites.
If I could, I'd have a ton of cats. Typical crazy cat lady sort of thing. I have a 'crazy cat lady action figure'. Yeah, obsessed.
So fat cat is getting older. She's very clingy lately. I went to Wal-Mart around 2am and was only gone maybe 45 minutes. When I got home I got yelled at and fussed at by the fat cat, then followed around like that little 45 minute jaunt was like 45 years in cat time.
She's been all over me lately. And when she isn't ON me, she's here on my desk. She's been doing this crazy thing with my desk lamp. I know it puts off heat, I can feel it. Well the knuckle head keeps shoving her nose at it, and of course it burns her! But she keeps doing it. ~head desks~
And then, when she isn't shoving her face into it, she's trying to crawl under it, like its a sunlamp or something. Well, the lamp is very small…and she…she's a 15lb fat cat. Only her head fits. She looks ridiculous. ~sighs~
I've just shoo'ed her off the desk. She decided she wanted to help me type. She must know I was talking about her. She bit my hand. She doesn't bite me hard. Just nibbles. The only time she gets a little too rough is when I am trying to climb in bed. She waits patiently for me to get one leg up before attacking the other. Hard.
On to another subject, 2014 is drawing to a close. I've seen a lot of year in review posts. I thought of doing something like that. And maybe a little something on what I want to do in 2015. I dont make resolutions. I do set goals. There's a difference. To me, resolutions are too flimsy, too easily broken. Goals have structure.
Okay, I'm weird in my thinking, I know.
We'll get to those things tomorrow maybe. That would be a good way to wrap up the year.
I'm taking that stupid Christmas tree down sometime today, with any hope. So sick of looking at it. Grah.
I'm going to get the fat cat stoned. She deserves a little fix of the old catnip! 😀

When you decide to buy a loose powder mineral foundation, there are so many options and so many ingredients, how do you know what is good, bad or indifferent?
In our previous article about finding a truly pure mineral makeup, we gave you the four ingredients that are most common in mineral foundation, but if the ingredient list is longer, you'll want to read on!
There are some pretty common added ingredients, which aren't strictly necessary, and in some cases are there to provide a particular "feel" to the product, rather than to improve its function.
In fact, many of those ingredients actually cause break outs and can make you look much older!
Listen up, especially if you're vegan, or not into animal cruelty, because you're really going to be surprised at some of the ingredients below lurking in many mineral formulas.
Take a read at the ingredients listed below, and really consider whether or not you want these in your makeup.
Ingredients in Mineral Makeup You Should Absolutely Avoid
Run away from these! They have no business being in mineral foundation!
Dimethicone and Cyclomethicone
While not harmful, these silicones give products great coverage that doesn't settle into lines or pores, but also places a barrier between the skin and the environment.
While this can be good, protecting the skin from pollutants, it does not allow impurities to leave the skin, and can lead to clogged pores and breakouts.
Long term, it just isn't healthy for the skin if used daily, and there are concerns about the effects of silicones on the environment, particularly marine life.
A preservative that began appearing when the concerns about Parabens reached a fever-pitch, but it isn't without detractors. Considered to be "practically non-toxic," but should be very low (last or in the last few) of the ingredients.
In Japan, it is only allowed in cosmetics in very low concentrations. But the real question here is, if the product is really mineral foundation, why does it need a preservative?
These 2 ingredients will just make your skin look terrible
The two offenders below can cause red bumps and acne, while accentuating wrinkles and large pores. Um, no thank you!
Bismuth Oxychloride
This ingredient gets such a bad rap and it seems like everyone tries to avoid Bismuth Oxychloride (BOC). Companies add this white pigment to give a "slippery" feeling to products, and to impart a slightly metallic sheen for a "dewy" look.
Some people are sensitive to BOC and will experience small red bumps and itching soon after contact.
The actual number of people who are sensitive to BOC is small, and there are other explanations for reactions, but there are other reasons to be skeptical of this ingredient.
Thorough cleansing is important with BOC, because the "buffing" that some use to apply mineral foundation can cause this ingredient to clog pores and lead to breakouts.
The sheen that BOC brings to a product can make it difficult for anyone with less than perfect skin to wear–large pores, scars and wrinkles are all accentuated by BOC. If you have great skin and aren't sensitive to it, there is nothing wrong with having it in your foundation.
Boron Nitride
Often used as an alternative to Bismuth Oxychloride. It absorbs oil, provides a nice feel and a sheen. As with BOC, those with imperfect skin may wish to avoid this ingredient.
Mineral makeup can turn your skin into a parched wasteland–avoid these culprits!
Dry skin that looks like a dessert is pretty much the opposite having a youthful glow. Unless you have oily, skin these dehydrating ingredients aren't appropriate in most women's makeup. Particularly when you're over a certain age.
Absorbent, provides coverage, and may be used as an anti-caking agent. It is mildly abrasive, and some may find it irritating. It can cause skin to feel drier than normal.
Generally used to absorb oil, also provides a nice feel and increases opacity of product. It is best to avoid if your skin tends to be dry.
A certain "natural" company refers to this ingredient as "Amazonian Clay" in their marketing (e know who it is, ehhhmm…).
Vegans beware…not all mineral foundations are vegan-friendly!
If you are vegan (or just squeamish) you will want to avoid these ingredients.
Animal Sourced Ingredients
- Pearl Powder (from freshwater pearls created by freshwater mussels),
- Silk Powder (made from silk, and harvested by boiling silkworms)
- Carmine (from the Cochineal beetle)
Wait, am I paying extra for that?
While extracts of vitamins and antioxidants are great for the skin, they need to be absorbed into the skin to be truly effective. In mineral formulations, they are dry sit on the surface of the skin, where they are not as effective as their liquid counterparts.
Extracts Such As:
- Green Tea
- Aloe
- Rosemary
- Chamomile
- Plankton
- Algae
Some companies may include these so that they can claim that their minerals are "organic."
Jojoba Esters, Wax or Oil
Jojoba is non-comedogenic and widely considered one of the healthiest oils for the skin, although in a dry powder form and in the small percentages you would find in a loose powder, it may not provide much benefit. If the mineral powder is pressed, Jojoba wax is a good binding agent.
A few things that aren't as bad as they might sound.
Finally, there are some ingredients people get really freaked out by when they see such chemical looking names on the list, but you should know these are actually OK to use.
Ultramarines and Chromium Oxide Green
Blue and green pigments. Both are restricted by the FDA for use on the lips, but are acceptable for use on face and eyes. If it is in your foundation, do not apply it to lips.
Lauroyl Lysine
A skin conditioning ingredient that also improves product texture. Derived from coconut oil.
Rice powder (Oryza Sativa) and Corn Starch (Zea Mays)
Both are silky and oil absorbing. Contrary to popular belief, although they are food based starches, they do not "feed" acne bacteria. The forms used in cosmetics are sterilized, and do not need preservatives as long as they are kept dry.
Well there you have it! The good, the bad, the ugly and the indifferent.
Has this opened your eyes to looking a litter further past believing the claims of mineral makeup brands?
We sure hope so. Let us know which brands you trust, and which ones you discovered that don't meet up to your standards in the comments below!

When launching the Flickr collection, our goal was to choose photos that created a commercially viable collection, while preserving the inspirational and unexpected nature of the kinds of images that are so prevalent on Flickr. We're proud to announce that today the collection has grown to over 60,000 images, many of which have been license by customers from around the world.
In the past, the Flickr community could set their account settings to reflect that they wanted to be contacted by Getty Images, but could not proactively present a portfolio of photos for consideration. We know how eager Flickr members have been to showcase their work and wanted to develop a solution.
That's why, today, we're very excited to announce a formal Call for Artists, meaning ANY Flickr member can submit their work to be considered for the collection through the Call for Artists group on Flickr.

Warren County Historical Society Presents …

Warren County Soldier Offers Insight Into the Mind of the Civil War Soldier
The History Channel's website tells us that it was the great number of soldiers lost in the War Between the States, the Civil War, which caused the nation to designate a day in May to honor the fallen heroes. On May 5, 1868, General John A. Logan issued an order setting May 30th as Decoration Day, a day to decorate the graves of the soldiers who had lost their lives. In 1971, Congress declared Memorial Day to be the last Monday in May.
The need for units of fighting men reached its tentacles into virtually every town and hamlet and Hague was no exception to that. An article in the May 16, 1968, Ticonderoga Sentinel states, "At the time of the Civil War, Hague had a population of slightly less than 700, and 106 men volunteered for service. One man only was drafted and he enlisted before he was called." Among those Hague volunteers was Hiram M. Sexton, a farmer, who joined a Ticonderoga Company and served as a farrier with the 2nd Regiment Cavalry of New York State. He wrote a letter* home that tells us what's in the hearts and minds of every serviceman in battle – whether it be in Gettysburg, the snowy fields of Bastogne, the jungles of Vietnam or the desert of Iraq.
Edgar (l) and Hiram Sexton (r) hunting with their dog
What follows is a letter that Hiram wrote home while he was away from home 'soldiering.' Some punctuation has been added for ease in reading, but basically the letter is transcribed as written.
"Dear father and mother I set down this morning to rite you a few lines to let you no that I am well and hope to hear that you are well when I get the returnes from this. many changes and marching and countermarching have taken place since the soldiers of the harris light cavalry getherdnightley under the old apple tree or in front of the chaplans tent during the warm moonlight evenings of September and October. the rich autumn folige that then made even poor old desolated Virginia look beautiful has droped away and Stern winter rendrd all the more firm and forbidding by the ravages of wore now rains supreme. many of our number also like the leaves have drooped away. Som of them have obtained and Squanderdtharebounty have treacherously deserted and Sneak away like thievish hounds. the bulit accident and siknes have each conspired to lessen our number, and meny a noble harted fellow, ho was always first and formost in all a Soldiers dutys, now languishing in somhospitible or sleeping beneath the Sod that last sleep from which no bugle call can a waken him. you at the north who cosily read about battles in an armchair know little of a mans sensations who stands in front of the enemyes guns. he hears Shots and Shells Screem and explode over and Around him. before him rises the SulphurousSmok of the condflick. from out of obscurety he knows that at eny moment Som Swift messenger of death may be speeding on its way to his hart. he thinks of unfinished plans, of bright prospects and hopes for the futer, his home and its beloved inmates, and the forms and featuers of those friends that hold the cheaf places within his soal rises up bforehim and he knows that eny moment he may be Snatched from all theas and lied mangled bleeding corps upon the ground and So it is hard for one to leave his home, his wife and children, father and mother, and face the canons Mouth. I don't know but what I have seen you all for the last time but I hope and pray to god that I may be Spared to returne to See the loved ones that I left at home that is dear to me then life it Self but wee cant tell what changes this war will fetch on befor next September; but if I di I di like a Soldier and not a coured. thare is A camp rumer that wee are a going to Richmond. thare has ben orders to have the horses Shod in redenes and if wee go I will rite Again. wee have had very cold wether hear this winter but I think it is A bout over with now. the ground is coverd with eyce and has ben So for the last two weeks. to day has been quite modrate and worm.

I will Sine my Self you afectnate Son. rite soon. H. M. S."
Hiram did return to Hague to raise his family and live out his life.
Hiram Sexton resting from plowing
Hiram's letter allows us to take a moment to remember all the men and women who have served us so well, and to offer a prayer for those who serve us still.

SunPower Makes an Acquisition
SunPower is literally cleaning up with its new acquisition. The company announced that it has purchased privately held Greenbotics, a company that specializes in cleaning products and services for solar panels, in a cash transaction. The specifics of the deal were not made public.
Greenbotics services feature its CleanFleet robots, machines that automate the cleaning process. The robots are configurable for an assortment of panels and mounting types. According to SunPower, they are less costly and more environmentally friendly than traditional cleaning methods.
In the press release announcing the acquisition, SunPower quoted its CEO, Tom Werner, as saying that it "will allow us to further maximize the proven system performance of our high-efficiency, most reliable solar panels, which is critical to a project's economics and levelized cost of electricity."
SunPower said that the transaction will be accretive to its results. It did not elaborate.
At the end of its most recently reported quarter, the company had $785 million in cash and short-term investments.

So as we are on the cusp of the president signing new financial regulation into law, I have to ask — why does he seem to be dragging his feet on nominating Elizabeth Warren, the woman who almost single-handedly made all this monetary mumbo-jumbo understandable AND was our only real advocate in the Wall Street meltdown and our near-depression economic crisis, to head up the new Consumer Financial Protection Agency?
Warren, a Harvard Law school expert on bankruptcy law, has been the head of the TARP oversight panel and a financial superhero for her ability to leap tall buildings in a single bound while at the same time explaining credit default swaps and the economic meltdown in plain English!
There can only be one reason for the hesitance — Wall Street's influence on Washington. Who used to work on Wall Street? Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner — one of Obama's team who is apparently most opposed to her. The other two in the running are a former lobbyist and a career government official. Oh, and they're both D.C. establishment white guys. I hate to bring this up, but we haven't really done very well when the establishment white guys ignored the common sense advice of women financial experts.
I'm just sayin'.
Some claim she can't be confirmed by the Senate, but it turns out that might not even be an issue. If she does have to be confirmed, I think that's only a "problem" because so many Senators take campaign money from Wall Street and big banks.
The real reason those already in office and in power think Elizabeth Warren is controversial is because she speaks the truth and she does it in plain English so people can understand (except for the part about credit default swaps and the derivatives — for that, you need to read The Big Short.) She's not afraid to tell us if the emperor has no clothes.
I have no doubt that Warren would get in there, roll up her sleeves, keep that blondish hair behind her ears, and get to work yesterday. Those other guys? Their CV's scream status quo, and that's just what we don't need when it comes to trying to level the playing field just a little bit for Americans whose economic lives are in meltdown.
I don't even want to think about what's going to happen to our economy if the president leaves it to the insiders again to "fix" things for the American people. I'd rather have the real watchdog — the one with the bark and a bite.

Epic Introduction: Wagner's 'Das Rheingold'
THE HIT SINGLE: "Entrance of the Gods into Valhalla"
Das Rheingold ends as the gods cross the rainbow bridge into their new home. As that famous passage opens, Wotan (bass-baritone Wolfgang Koch) beckons his wife Fricka (mezzo-soprano Claudio Mahnke) towards the entryway. But as they proceed, the fire god Loge (tenor Norbert Ernst) senses that they're doomed, and thinks about engulfing them all in flames, while the Rhinemaidens are heard below, lamenting the loss of their precious gold.

If I create a gradient with spot colors and output to pdf the gradient will be CMYK even if I select to honor spot colors. I was able to get around this by doing a solid color on the bottom, copying the object and pasting it on top, applying the secondary color with a transparency. Seems like a lot of extra work.

The Sun columnist Kelvin MacKenzie has been suspended from the newspaper after he expressed "wrong" and "unfunny" views about the people of Liverpool, News UK has said.
It comes after Liverpool mayor Joe Anderson reported to police an article by Mr MacKenzie which he claimed contained "a racial slur".
The article was about Everton footballer Ross Barkley who was punched in a Liverpool city centre bar in the early hours of Monday.
Everton announced on Saturday it had banned representatives of The Sun until further notice.
A News UK spokesman said: "The Sun's columnist Kelvin MacKenzie has been suspended from the paper with immediate effect.
"The views expressed by Kelvin Mackenzie about the people of Liverpool were wrong, unfunny and are not the view of the paper.
"The Sun apologises for the offence caused.
"The paper was unaware of Ross Barkley's heritage and there was never any slur intended.
"Mr Mackenzie is currently on holiday and the matter will be fully investigated on his return."
Mayor Anderson had earlier reported the article.
Mr Anderson took offence at remarks made by the newspaper's former editor about Everton footballer Ross Barkley who was punched in a Liverpool city centre bar in the early hours of Monday.
In his column on Friday, MacKenzie wrote: "Perhaps unfairly, I have always judged Ross Barkley as one of our dimmest footballers.
"There is something about the lack of reflection in his eyes which makes me certain not only are the lights not on, there is definitely nobody at home.
"I get a similar feeling when seeing a gorilla at the zoo. The physique is magnificent but it's the eyes that tell the story.
"So it came as no surprise to me that the Everton star copped a nasty right-hander in a nightclub for allegedly eyeing up an attractive young lady who, as they say, was 'spoken for'.
"The reality is that at £60,000 a week and being both thick and single, he is an attractive catch in the Liverpool area, where the only men with similar pay packets are drug dealers and therefore not at nightclubs, as they are often guests of Her Majesty."
England midfielder Berkeley, 23, has a Nigerian grandfather.
Labour councillor Mr Anderson told BBC Sport: "Not only is it racist in a sense that he is of mixed-race descent, equally it's a racial stereotype of Liverpool. It is racist and prehistoric."
He later tweeted: "Reported McKenzie&the S*n for their racist slur on Ross Barkley and the people of Liverpool to Merseyside Police&press complaints commission."
MacKenzie has said he did not know of footballer Ross Barkley's family background and added that it was "beyond parody" for critics to describe his article as "racist".
MacKenzie oversaw the newspaper when it ran a front page story four days after the 1989 Hillsborough tragedy, headlined The Truth, which featured claims that some Liverpool fans had ''picked pockets of victims'' and ''urinated on brave cops".
He has issued several apologies since over the coverage which he now says was based on "deliberate misinformation from the South Yorkshire Police".
Last year an inquest jury concluded the 96 fans were unlawfully killed and that the behaviour of Liverpool supporters at the FA Cup semi-final played no role in causing the tragedy.

Sharp denies rumours that they are selling their copier divisionOctober 23, 2012
Sharp contacted my company through the CDA to complain about the recent blog article that they I posted stating that the buzz at the CDA meeting is that they are selling their copier division. Even though this is a personal blog based on my opinion and the opinions of those posting, I was asked to pull the article. I am being told second hand that Sharp is denying the persistent rumors. No one from Sharp has spoken to me officially, or directly.
So, In fairness to Sharp I am pulling that article, and posting this retraction. Sharp is a publicly held company and can not knowingly mislead their stock holders. If it will help settle the matter I will go one step further and offer Sharp a featured spot on this blog to directly state that there are no plans to sell the copier division. So we can put the rumors to bed once and for all.
That's My $0.02

Bed time
Thanksgiving 2009, originally uploaded by Patricia Snook.
Hello Sweets,
Oh my teeth are ACHING! I've got a wisdom tooth coming through PAIN. I tried to find a bottle of super yummy single malt whiskey to use as mouthwash but I think my dad gave it away to one of our removal men. Darnnit!
Sweetest Dreams, I hope you've had a wonderful weekend, and all the best for the week ahead. This is my bed, with Vivaldi sitting on the bottom. I'm snuggling in there tonight, I wish I lived with IB again!!
Lots of love

Before, Progress, Plans/
Last week I shared with you my brother's living room progress. We also finished painting a few other rooms. Like the kitchen. The fiesta kitchen. Who wants burritos?
We had some focus issues while painting. There were just so many hideous colors to hide. I started priming the kitchen. My dad asked me if we should finish a room before beginning another. I told him this room was making me so violently ill that it could not wait.
I had some trouble with exposure compensation (I need a refresher on our long lost camera lessons) but this is the most accurate representation of the colors.
Oh my. Oh my. Hurry. Cover up this awfulness.
And yes, I do occasionally get more paint on the walls than my clothes. Occasionally.
My brother loves painting ceilings. That's why we let him do all of them. We're a supportive family.
He chose Comfort Grey for Sherwin Williams for the wall color. It's a very interesting color. It's sometimes green and sometimes grey. We both liked it a lot.
This was the last room that we finished before I called it a week-end and head back home. It's obviously not picked up/taped removed but you can see there is definite improvement.
My family may also be the messiest renovators. I had a panic attack when I arrived and moved/organized everything into the dining room. All of the supplies grouped by use. My family made a lot of fun of me. Deep down they liked the new system. I'm sure it's still in place….
The cabinets obviously need some love. We are going to be giving them a make-over Memorial Day week-end….because we are the most amazing sister/brother-in-law in the world. He will repeat this to us during the three day week-end. And feed us ice cream.
Nate is going to add some moldings to the cabinets. They will then be painted. Probably white. I think we have him talked into new hardware as well. There may also be some countertop painting. You just never know.
Who wants burritos? What's the worst color combo you have seen in a house? Are you an organized DIY'er or do you have things strung from one room to another?


text: Believe it or not, being hard headed and having a hard hat are two completely different things. One gets you into a lot of trouble and the other gets you out of a lot of trouble. So don't be hard headed, give your co-workers, employees, and prospects personalized hard hats to protect them from danger. These customized hard hats for sale are perfect for the demolition site, construction job, breaking ground ceremony, plant workers, and more!

Whole of WA Government Search
Watch the Channel Nine news story on Penshurst.
Before its transformation, Penshurst was a run-down squat that had been converted in flats in the 1940s and was in an appalling state of dilapidation after a long period of being vacant.
Built in 1897, the grand late Victorian residence set on a large riverside lot once exhibited the exuberance of Western Australia's gold boom era and had been home to wealthy merchants and politicians.
However, by the time it was placed on the State Register in 2000, it had fallen victim to decades of neglect and vandalism.
In 2001, it was purchased by a family who saw the hidden potential of the property and embarked on a 10-year project to restore the building to its original grandeur.
Today, Penshurst is a modern, functional family home with a distinctive heritage flair.
Works were guided by a conservation plan and included a contemporary two-storey addition to the South elevation. This incorporated a new open-plan kitchen, living and dining area opening onto landscaped gardens; a new study and ensuite bathroom on the first floor; and the excavation of a disused cellar with stair access and a weatherboard skillion reinstated. The new addition complements the original building's scale and the use of clay brick and polished plaster finish clearly distinguishes the modern from the original limestone and brick construction.
Other tasks included repointing and rebuilding limestone and brick walls; rebuilding and conserving the two-storey timber-framed verandah; conservation of existing joinery and timber floors; and the addition of a new driveway, boundary fence and garage.
All these changes were carefully planned and work in harmony with the building's heritage values.
Penshurst won the 2012 Western Heritage Award for Outstanding Conservation of a Residential Place. The judges said the transformation of this once derelict property into a stunning family home was testament to the passion and commitment of its owners to conserve and restore one of East Fremantle's landmark historic residences.

Republic of Bernard O'Shea in Limerick's UCH
Resident roving reporter and scourge of Georgia Salpa and Jennifer Maguire on RTÉ's hugely popular Republic of Telly, Bernard O'Shea comes to the University Concert Hall this Thursday night for his first show in the venue.
The likeable comedian will make his much anticipated debut in the UCH, heralding the upward trajectory of an increasingly high profile career in comedy.
O'Shea, who also recently hosted The RTÉ Two New Comedy Awards, has been described recently as "a fizzing, iridescent ball of sheer energy; a fast- talking, fast-thinking comedian who invigorates a room with his presence".
See him this Thursday in the UCH, tickets €15.
It is a busy time in the Concert Hall, with Charlie Landsborough, spoof 51 Shades of Maggie, Stayin' Alive - The Bee Gees Story, Alone It Stands, the Irish Chamber Orchestra and Jimmy Carr all set to appear in the coming weeks. We like the look of Get Back - The Beatles on November 16. See www.uch.ie.

I went and cancelled a few votes just a little while ago. I wish I could say "I voted my consciensce" or that I was able to vote for "the right people" but I won't lie. As far as the presidential election, whatever; neither candidate is actually in line with my views, but I'll tell you this: I can't in good conscience vote for someone who aligns themselves with the platform of the Democratic Party because their beliefs are so much in opposition to my own. Please, don't crash LJ with your simultaneous sucking of air and bashing of keyboards. I realize this is in opposition to about 99% of the people who will read this (special thanks to gymbrall for defeating the sweep), but you don't read my LJ because I'm a staunch supporter of all things Democrat (or Republican either, for that matter) anyway.
What interests me more than the big dawgs in this election is all the posturing and threatening by, literally, thousands of lawyers poised to contest election results. Politics sickens me because of how childish and vicious it is, and has always been. It is fitting only in a society where the WWE's ratings compete with "reality TV" shows like Temptation Island; where Elim-A-Date and Howard Stern fight for time slots; where the most common commercials are about Bob's discovery of Envite and how you can effortlessly lose 100 pounds using Leptoprin, but only if you are truly obese, this isn't for someone who can "easily lose weight" and who only needs to lose a few "vanity pounds."
What I'm getting at is the fact that in a society/culture that is gullable enough to buy these products, and shallow enough to call these programs "entertainment," and we are, or they wouldn't be growing in numbers, we deserve no more than the people that are being chosen to represent us in our nation's capital, and to all the world. Why is our government worried that the Iraqis don't have freedom from tyranny, but not worried about the freedoms they are steadily taking from their own citizens? What has happened to the thinkers? They must be watching TV.
Another thing I found interesting was that all the judges are listed as "nonpartisan" rather than listing a political party with which they are affiliated. Is that fooling anyone? Is anyone in this country so naive as to believe that judges are actually impartial? Or "nonpartisan"? At least politicians are still being listed by which clothing they wear, wolves or sheep, you decide and I won't debate you here about it. I submit, however, that all politicians are wolves in sheep's clothing because none of them vote their conscience and convictions 100% of the time. They are expected to, and I think mostly do, vote party lines most of the time. I recently read that one study showed they did so 98% of the time; I hope that is untrue. Like the attorneys that most of them are, anyone calling themselves a "politician" is nothing more than a feckless, putrid, facsimile of a human being, not worthy of my respect until proving otherwise.
This is why I don't post much about politics.

Each time I write a blog for a wedding, I can't wait to 'word vomit' all the wonderful things about the day and the couple. When I went to start on this entry, the first thing that came to my head about Andrew + Kelli was, 'You will never meet people as genuine, kind, considerate, loving, and interesting in your entire life.' and I am being SO for real.
Kelli and Andrew met at THE Ohio State University while obtaining education in music! They are now music teachers and they LOVE their jobs. Throughout their wedding day, there were tiny touches of their love for music placed throughout the decor and activites. The music note paper with the centerpieces, the harpist during the ceremony and the amazing live band that entertained their wedding reception it all embodied them and how they met.
When I say these two are kind, considerate and loving.... woah do I have a story for you. When we were set to meet to talk about their photography, I was 4-5 months pregnant at the time. While on the freeway, I got sick (Oh yeah, real life talk right here, right now. Yay for morning sickness.) I was MORTIFIED! I thought, 'There is no way I can walk into this meeting like this. What am I going to do?' So I went to a nearby Target with minutes until meeting time to get new clothes but I just kept getting sick. Minutes went by. I was stuck in the Target bathroom, the hottest mess I've been in my life and I knew what I had to do. I had to tell Kelli I needed (desperately) to go home. You would NOT believe how nice Kelli was! She even asked to re-schedule. She still wanted to meet with me! When I got to meet with them at the rescheduled meeting, they treated me like nothing happened. They made me feel like I was still a professional they wanted to work with. I knew from that moment, I would be absolutely honored to photograph their wedding day should I be chosen and I was so thankful that they chose me.
To the friends and family that surround this couple, don't you ever let them go. These two, as I am sure you already know, are what the world needs more of. The love you showed Kelli and Andrew on their wedding day was so wonderful to capture and we were so happy to photograph every laugh, smile and dance m!
Thank you so much for reading about their special day. If you would like an event or session photographed, please feel free to go to envphotographyy.com/contact

AFP NYC offers a variety of valuable member benefits to help you further your fundraising career.
Executive Director, New York
One in three women and one in four men experience relationship abuse in their lifetime. Young women ages 16-24 are at three times greater risk. Three women a day are killed by their partners in the U.S. alone. The statistics around relationship abuse make it a public health epidemic that all of us have a stake in changing.
One Love exists for one reason: Yeardley Love was killed, and her death was preventable if anyone in her life understood the warning signs of an unhealthy and increasingly dangerous relationship. This realization is the driving force behind our work to educate young people about relationship abuse and rally them in a campaign that can change the statistics.
What started in 2010 out of a family's wish to honor their daughter, expanded in 2015 into a national educational campaign to improve young people's understanding of healthy versus unhealthy relationships. Using emotionally compelling content, and a peer workshop model, we are reaching hundreds of thousands of young people, teaching them how to recognize signs of abuse, and providing them with the language and tools required to navigate these relationships.
Communities are engaging in this conversation across the country and increasingly around the world. Today, One Love is the national leader in educating young people about relationship health, educating more than 375,000 young people through an in-person One Love workshop and training 18,000 facilitators to lead these workshops in their communities. One Love's #ThatsNotLove and #LoveBetter digital campaigns have had over 85 million views online.
As we continue to scale this campaign, engaging even more young people as leaders of this work, we are focused on ensuring the campaign reflects the perspectives and interests of all who are impacted by this issue. Working closely with individuals at schools and colleges, youth-facing organizations, and domestic violence advocates across the country, we will reach more people and engage more voices in a truly human campaign for change. As Sharon Love, Yeardley's mom, said early on, "We model off Mothers Against Drunk Driving in our approach, and our goal is to change the statistics and social norms around abuse in one generation."
One Love's campaign is equal parts national and local in its scope. Nationally, One Love has created a mission, messaging and educational tools that standardize the language we use to teach young people about healthy and unhealthy relationships. Locally, One Love works on the ground with young people, schools, youth-facing community groups and social service partners to ensure that our programs are used in a way that is right for each community. Starting in 2017, One Love established on-the-ground teams in four cities to increase the velocity of our efforts in engagement and activation. By serving communities full-time, we know we can amplify a conversation about relationships that is changing and saving lives.
In each regional office, Executive Directors are the lead architects of and recruiters for the local campaign, charged with expanding, diversifying and deepening the participation of all types of participants. EDs are true believers in our common-sense approach to prevention and they are highly comfortable recruiting others to the cause. Given the start-up nature of our organization, Executive Directors play a critical role in securing support to fuel growth, resourcefully identifying new ways to raise funds to support both local and national work as well as expand One Love's educational footprint and base of volunteer participation. With partnering at the core of our work, EDs also oversee our program outreach efforts, experimenting with new strategies to engage individuals and partner organizations in deeper and mutually beneficial ways. Their on-the-ground efforts can then be used as models for community engagement in other cities as well.
Develop and execute a strategic plan for One Love's growth in the short-, medium- and long- term
Expand One Love's programmatic reach through middle school, high school and college/community engagement as well as through partnerships with youth-facing organizations who want the young people they love to benefit from this conversation
Develop a dedicated and enthusiastic corps of community leaders, both young people and adults, who help drive participation and engagement in their communities as a key element of shifting community norms
Expand and retain the Regional Leadership Council, which is a leadership group and crucial partnership for the Regional EDs. RLCs advise on best strategies for impact in the city they love, and inspiring their support is critical and expected to achieve growth
Expand and retain the financial base of support for this work through development strategies including annual giving and major gifts solicitation, special events, community fundraising, foundation grants, corporate grants, and possibly government support
Support and develop a small but A+ team on the ground
Be an influential and collaborative leader locally, advocating for this work and recruiting collaborators and partners who share our vision and believe in the power of communities, and young people, to achieve ambitious goals
Closely collaborate with the broader One Love team as well as other Regional EDs to continue to:
Iterate and evolve our model for impact
Establish best practices for regional operations
Innovate to develop new approaches to education and engagement
Honestly assess how goals are being met
- Keep a constant eye on progress to develop more concrete measures of success in changing the statistics around relationship abuse
Professional Qualifications and Experience
- 15 years professional experience in business development, community engagement and/or organizing, fundraising and partnership development and/or related fields.
- Fundraising and partnerships experience is essential
- Start-up experience is valuable
- Some experience in the education space is preferred
Successful track record of building or scaling an organization's efforts and impact at a quick pace, including procurement of new funds and retention of existing funds to enable growth
Experience in balancing creativity, strategic planning and execution (imagining, planning and doing) simultaneously
Exceptional relationship manager and positive presence whose enthusiasm and energy help recruit a diverse collection of individuals and organizations to this cause
- Experience leading a business line as well as working with colleagues across an organization to get things done
Personal Qualities and Attributes
Deep passion for One Love's mission and movement
"Big thinker" with a strong interest in overseeing the growth of the campaign locally through programmatic expansion, growth of the fundraising base, and empowerment of local leaders
Demonstrates a generosity of spirit & predisposition to believe in positive intent in people; applies this orientation internally & externally (works against territorialism and us versus them dynamics)

Hi Lightw4are
Please add detailed instructions on how to add photos to a topic posting. In the FAQ section you answer the question "Can I post images", however you give no details how to do it.
I know we have fewer people posting on our forum in comparison to the French forum, however one possible reason may be that some people may get frustrated with the posting problems.
I haven't posted for awhile and wanted to post today. I tried adding some photos but couldn't remember how to do it. I spent over 45 minutes between IE and Firefox before I though to copy the whole picture path to the posting I was doing.
Just a thought.
Other than that you do a great job here and I and many other people appreciate all the work that you do.
Lightw4re please add photo posting instruction to FAQ

...they hold things together!! Happy Mother's Day!!
I'm thrilled about what my daughter got me for Mother's Day. Yes. I got my gifts early. But we work that way. Neither of us can wait, even though my mom's mantra throughout my childhood was, "Waiting is good."
I agree VERY MUCH with waiting--especially when it comes to my children waiting for things they want. But my daughter was heading out and planned to be gone for Mother's Day. So we met up early and she gave me my gifts.
Ok. Get ready for the next PERFECT gift for SUE!
Big scream! Little dance! A tad embarrassing as this took place in the parking lot of our favorite thrift store--where we met, of course. (I'll show you those vintage finds in a sec.)
They will soon hang on my wall, but for now I just need to photograph them for a little Felted Button branding picture heaven! Ahhhhh! Sheer joy!
Ok. Breathe, Sue. So now let me show you a few other things I snatched up shortly after the parking lot scene.
Another Fenton milk glass vase. This one with the blue ruffled edge is wonderfully wonderful!
And it looks pretty great next to my other one--with yarn bits, of course.
I found this fun little vintage ice-cream chair in doll/teddy bear size. It has already been painted (wanna guess what color?) and is awaiting a hooky seat cover. I'll reveal it when it's complete in all its glory!
This funny box of drawers reminds me so much of an organizer I had in my bedroom as a child. I couldn't pass it up. Maybe I'll use it to store some buttons, needles or little bits.
And it is actually a music box that plays "Love Story" when you open the drawer. Sweet, huh?
Another sweet little thrifty find was this framed tile. I already painted the frame an aqua blue. I love the patterned rug, sweet little lunching animal guests, but mostly I love the colorful and abundant bookshelf! I love books. And I especially love colorful and good books.
I wonder what they are chatting about? And I can't help but notice that the lion is a bit left out. Reminds me of my hubby, who seems perfectly content to just sit and observe in social settings. I'm most like the pig--talk, talk, talk, gesticulate, talk some more. Surprised?
My mother got some dishcloths for Mother's Day. I started with my Bright as a Button square and then worked a totally cool new border on it. Which led to the yellow square. Different textured circle--layered with a little peek-a boo hole in the center. And then the "Three-Ringed" Circus square. (Hey, that name could work!)

About Us
Our number one goal is to make the people who hired us look like Rock*Stars to the people who hired them.
RockerDown Studios opened it's doors in 2010. Admittedly, it was a bedroom door converted to a cramped, desk and computer-filled office.
And, continuing that truthful approach, we weren't ready to open the door. Our LLC status was not confirmed, our website was not built, business cards were still being designed. Stuffed in that small office, it is still up for debate whether or not deoderant had been applied yet too.
But, we landed our first enterprise customer before we'd even had a chance to enter into a formal marketing plan and execution. Since that time, RockerDown has consistently been able to Market itself by not marketing at all. Word of mouth and the massive army of past relationships have prevailed and opportunities continue to come through our door. All while maintaining a rather impressive list of enterprise clients who are all repeat customers.
We are very humbled, and also proud that our work, the way we treat people, and our desire to achieve our number one goal have resulted in a level of success that has to date meant we've not had to spend a single dollar on marketing.
Rusty Worden started RockerDown Studios after a 14 year career as a multimedia developer at the top networking company the world has ever seen. His experience as a content developer, media designer and developer, as well has from his roles creative team manager, he wanted to start a company that could cast off some of the politics that occasionally are introduced with collaborative projects, particularly when vendors are brought into the effort.
His concept was a simple, faith-based approach. Rather than focusing on what we want to do, we are encouraged, pushed, prodded, and reminded incessantly to discover exactly how we can make the person who hired rockerdown look good to the people who hired them. To not focus on our own goals and instead trust that by focusing on our customer goals, our goals will be realized.

Since last we spoke...
John and I celebrated an anniversary. We had an anniversary lunch at Din Tai Fung. Xiao long bao.... heck yes. One order just isn't enough!
I (Thea) participated in Urban Craft Uprising with my other company.
We've done quite a bit of yard work. We're getting ready to host a few friends and family - friends that are family in a little over two months. We're reaping some benefits to go along with our sore bodies.
And the reason why we're getting our domestic things in order, we're about to begin an adventure, marriage.
I'll post a bit more about that in the near future. There's still lots to do but we're taking a very zen approach to things. We're actively taking new orders up until two weeks before. We realize that we're doing this during the beginning of the busiest season of the year. So we're keeping things moving along! We're an "older" couple and we know what's important now. As long as we have enough food, drinks and music we'll have plenty to celebrate with.
Lasers and love - Thea

Dear Zhao Bosheng,
We plan to arrive at the Kunming airport April 16 at 7:45 am (MU 714 China Eastern Airlines)
We contacted the Chinese Embassy, invitations — is ok, but they also ask us to confirm your hotel (booking certificates scans). Can you help us, or we need to request them from the hotel, that you recommend?
Dates of our visit are: April 16 — April 21
We have a few questions regarding the formal point of signing the contract:
— What documents from our side will be required to sign the agreement? We are sure to provide all the formal information about our company, including insurance, financial guarantees and bank details.
Our company has the necessary approvals and permits for all types of design service. But all the documents we have in Russian, except for information about the bank account. Let me know if you need a translation into English.
— How do you wish to enter into a contract: the company or individual? As you will be more profitable or easier?
— We would like to examine in detail the construction site, is it possible?
Best regards,
Simon Ra ,
NMAXU architects

The View Electrical emerged from the meeting of two music lovers: Frédéric Aellen (Sonograph) and Raul Bortolotti (Kruger, No Sun in San Francisco).
They started working together in fall 2012, besides misc activities, carefully crafting some demos which quickly became the core of their first album : «Roseland». Since the very first note, they focused on trying something different than the standard rock album, mixing every influence that has shaped them along the way.
While The View Electrical is working on their sophomore album, the duo extends the Roseland experience with the EP, "Roseland Remixes", featuring five reworked songs by renowned international artists like Dälek and Justin Broadrick (GODFLESH, JESU).
Thus The View Electrical is the perfect crossover of various genres like folk, hip hop, ambient, metal, new wave, original soundtracks and nineties indie rock.

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — In a sight for sore eyes in Elmhurst, Queens, a potentially dangerous billboard was finally coming down Wednesday.
As CBS 2's Hazel Sanchez first reported Tuesday night, the billboard was hanging for years over Queens Boulevard at the junction with Barnwell Avenue.
The billboard's 6-foot-by-3-foot plywood planks have been flying off. One of them recently damaged a street sign.
Neighbor Thomas McKenzie said Wednesday the billboard's impending removal is a relief.
"The owner called me this morning, or someone purported to be the owner, at 7:45, saying he was going to take care of things and he was a nice neighbor," he said.
The billboard is mounted on top of a building that has been abandoned for more than 15 years. McKenzie expressed his frustration, having filed countless complaints with the city for more than a decade.
"The building is falling down. The sign is coming apart. There are people in the building. It's open; unsafe; unguarded," McKenzie said. "The Buildings Department does nothing."
McKenzie said the billboard planks have narrowly missed pedestrians and cars on Queens Boulevard – the notorious boulevard of death.
The Department of Buildings said it was the property owner's responsibility to maintain the building and the billboard on top.
Despite receiving 13 maintenance tickets from the city, including two for failing to maintain the billboard, the owner did nothing, McKenzie said.
After the problem was exposed Tuesday night, the owner apparently sent workers to clean it up.
"I saw two men pulling off 'don't post bills' signs. I saw a man putting up a wooden door where the old steel door was ripped off," McKenzie said. "If it weren't for CBS, nothing would have been done. I can't thank you enough, and Hazel Sanchez. God Bless you."
The building owner is due in court in April, owing the city $5,000 in fines.

I would not recommend Deron or this practice to anyone - you risk injury going here. Jester pushes an excessive recommended number of visits and financing options before they even know your needs. I've been to 2 great chiropractors and Jester is the worst kind you are warned about. If you resist over adjustment, they treat you like crap because you aren't contributing enough to their revenue...
My massage was awesome! I was so stressed and tight from the holidays. I felt like new afterwards! Aly is great!

There is video to go through from Nobody's Home, Drunkmonk, and even some footage of Mining the Mine of the Mind for Minderals. I am hoping to edit together some new excerpts for my video page in the next few weeks.
I would also like to plug Go Long Big Softie again and to ask for your support in the Kickstarter campaign to bring it to life. We have only 10 days to go and we are just under $1000 from our goal!
The show is at that critical stage in a devised work where we are making decisions about what ideas to continue to pursue and what should be left behind. I'm hoping to explore more of the mythopeotic men's movement and have been reading up on analytical psychology and Jungian archetypes.
Please spread the word about the campaign

- For normal Haematopoiesis
Stomach-friendly vitamin C improves iron uptake, and the trace element copper supports the transportation of iron through the body. Vitamin B2 also contributes to a normal iron metabolism. Iron, together with vitamin B6 and B12, supports the production of red blood cells, and vitamin B2 is important for the preservation of these blood cells. Folate (vitamin B9) also makes an important contribution towards haematopoiesis.
- For optimal oxygen supply
A high concentration of readily bioavailable iron supports the optimal supply for the body. Iron also contributes to normal oxygen transportation in the body and to the normal formation of haemoglobin. ÖKOMED® IRON COMPLEX also contains a chlorophyll complex with copper that is gained from the lucerne plant (alfalfa). Chlorophyll is the green plant dye and is chemically related to the red blood dye haemoglobin.
- For a reduction of fatigue
Like the vitamins of the B complex, iron has important functions in the production of energy in the body cells. Together with copper, B vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B12) and vitamin C, iron contributes to a normal energy-yielding metabolism. Iron, vitamin B2, B3, B5, B6, Folat, B12 and vitamin C also contribute to the reduction of fatigue and tiredness.
- For optimal bio-availability
Bioperine® is a patented extract from black peppercorns (Piper nigrum) with a high concentration of the active plant substance piperin. Bioperine® naturally supports the uptake of nutrients through the digestive system and thus ensures optimal bio-availability.
ÖKOMED® IRON COMPLEX CAPSULES contains the patented PHYTO-PANMOL®-B-COMPLEX. This contains botanical B vitamins obtained from high-quality quinoa sprouts. The following vitamins are present in a unique complexity and completeness: Vitamin B1 as aneurin, TPP, TTP; vitamin B2 as riboflavin, FMN, FADH; vitamin B3 as niacin, NADH, NADPH; vitamin B5 as pantothenic acid, coenzyme A; vitamin B6 as pyridoxine, pyridoxol, pyridoxamine; vitamin B7 as biotin, biocytin; vitamin B9 as folic acid, folate; vitamin B12 as cyanocobalamine, methylcobalamine.

Miami-Dade County
P.E. teacher arrested — and fired — after sexually battering students, cops say
A Miami-Dade County physical education teacher has been fired after he was arrested and charged with sexual battery on a child, news reports say.
Wendell Alfredo Nibbs, 51, a physical education teacher at Brownsville Middle School, was charged with two counts of sexual battery on a familial child, meaning the teacher had custodial care of the child, jail records show. Nibbs was booked into Miami-Dade County's Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center Thursday and is being held without bond.
According to WSVN-Channel 7, the Miami-Dade School Board police department began investigating Nibbs in mid-2015 after he had been accused of engaging in improper sexual activity with various female students between 12 and 18.
One 15-year-old victim told police she began having sex with the coach in his classroom during school hours and even exchanged naked photos through a messaging app. The teen ultimately transferred to another school and Nibbs asked her to keep their relationship secret.
A 14-year-old told police that Nibbs asked her in 2014 to see her genitals. The next year, Nibbs took her into a classroom and tried to have sex with her. Nibbs then threatened her with bodily harm after the girl yelled, kicked and screamed, reported CBS4.
Nibbs denied all allegations.
According to NBC6, police also interviewed four previous students who echoed similar accounts from 2004 to 2013. It's unclear why Nibbs continued teaching.
When police learned there may have been other student victims, Nibbs told detectives: "Well, where there's smoke, there's fire," reported the news outlet.
In a statement to NBC6 Thursday, school officials said Nibbs had been fired.
"Miami-Dade County Public Schools will not tolerate actions by employees that endanger or violate the safety of children. Our highest priority is to protect their physical and emotional well-being," the statement read. "The allegations against the employee are unconscionable and do not comport with the standard of excellence and integrity of our workforce. He is no longer an M-DCPS employee."
