Aquinnah Circle Cultural & Historic District (Aquinnah Circle), Aquinnah
Before there was even a paved road in town, the Aquinnah Circle has been a destination for tourists traveling to Martha's Vineyard. From far and wide people have come to see the vibrant colored clay cliffs, meet the Wampanoag (American Indian) residents, and admire the famous Gay Head Lighthouse.
Aquinnah Circle is located in the small town of Aquinnah (formerly known as Gay Head) on Martha's Vineyard Island. The town is homeland to the Wampanoag Tribe of Gay Head (Aquinnah), one of only two federally recognized tribes in the Commonwealth. Aquinnah has been a refuge place for the island's original inhabitants, and they have a long tradition of welcoming others that might not have had a place elsewhere. To this day, the Town's residents celebrate the unique character of those that choose to live here, surrounded by immense beauty, yet somewhat removed from many modern amenities.
Thousands of people come to experience the tranquil beauty of the Circle and surrounding area each year. The most popular attraction is the cliff overlook, which is a must for any Vineyard visitor, especially those also seeking a spectacular evening sunset. For adventurous types, there are hiking trails leading to the unparalleled Moshup Beach, as well as along the top of the cliffs, offering incredible scenic views of Vineyard Sound, the surrounding islands, and all the marine activity going on.

This is not your "typical Cape town" – there is something different here, rooted in history but continuing in the present day; a heritage connecting artisanship and innovation; a sense of place that celebrates the beauty of a natural setting while calling attention to the ways it has been shaped by the hands of people.

THE Pacific Hwy upgrade is like an "all-night disco" that brings sleepless nights and stress for Woolgoolga's Lloyd family.
With three boys studying - two university and one doing his HSC - the family is struggling to manage the anxiety brought by the thought of another night of lost sleep.
When their property near the southern end of the bypass section was initially assessed, the RMS decided to install thicker glass and air-conditioning as a solution to the dust and noise from the worksite.
But the measures weren't enough, and now they believe the only solution is a short section of concrete sound barrier like that installed elsewhere on the upgrade.
"They just won't come to the party," Mr Lloyd said.
"It's not enough that we constantly have to rewash our clothes after they get covered in dust on the line."
Mr Lloyd doesn't think it's too much to ask that the huge project helps their property.
"This land is zoned for the future expansion of Woolgoolga, so what are they going to do then - just leave it as it is?" he asked.
He said it was an issue of fairness as well as making their property livable.
"Other people bought houses when there was already a highway in place and they got the sound barriers," he said.
"We've lived here for 25 years and there was no highway next door when we bought this property from my parents, it was all banana plantation to the south and when I grew up it was bush."
The couple say they've also lost a ground-fed spring on their property.
"It's just dried up since they cut into it across there," he said.
The neighbouring property belongs to Mr Lloyd's parents and features a tract of forest with a conservation order on it because of its value as habitat.
"They won't even put up a fauna fence even though there's kangaroos, traces of koalas and heaps of other animals in there," Mr Lloyd said.
"With a project of this size, surely it wouldn't cost them too much to erect another small section of sound protection."

A bill which would overturn the controversial 'football creditors rule' in England and Wales and provide for all creditors of a football club to be equally entitled to compensation where that club goes into administration is currently before Parliament.19 Mar 2012
The rule means that football players, managers and other clubs are paid before other creditors if a football club enters administration in England and Wales. The rule means that football-related debts must be paid in full before a club is eligible to compete again in the league. HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) is challenging the rule, which does not apply in Scotland, in the High Court.
The Football (Financial Transparency) Bill, a private members' bill sponsored by Conservative MP Damien Collins, would also require professional clubs playing in the top four tiers of English or Scottish football to disclose their owners' identities and the identities of others with a "significant stake" in the club. Collins is a member of the House of Commons Culture, Media and Sport Committee, which threatened Government intervention in the way football clubs manage their finances if football authorities did not act voluntarily to reform the sport.
Writing for the Huffington Post, Collins said that a "radical new approach" was needed to prevent potential abuse from investors who are "not fit to be part of our game".
"We have seen too many high profile clubs, like Leeds United, Glasgow Rangers and Portsmouth, run into the ground by bad financial management. The consequences of this are not just damage to the reputation of the game and heartache to fans, but millions of pounds of taxpayers' money lost in unpaid taxes and local businesses who work with the club facing big losses from unpaid bills," he said.
In the past month, Portsmouth and Rangers Football Clubs have entered administration as a result of unpaid tax debts and allegations of financial mismanagement - in Portsmouth's case, for the second time in two years. Collins has also been vocal about the ownership of Leeds United, which from 2005 was owned by a company registered in the Cayman Islands and administered in Switzerland. The club's chairman, Ken Bates, purchased the club himself in April last year.
Insolvency law dictates the order in which different debts are settled when a company, such as a football club, goes into administration. Secured creditors, who hold fixed charges indicating that a specified asset can be used to satisfy a particular debt, are normally paid first. Any surplus is then made available alongside the proceeds of the sale of other assets to settle the expenses of the administration, employee claims and other debts. This means that in the majority of insolvencies unsecured creditors will remain unpaid or only receive a small percentage of the debt. HMRC lost its 'preferential creditor' status in 2003.
Last month a sports law expert told Out-Law.com that football clubs should face automatic relegation if they engage in repeated overspending. Trevor Watkins of Pinsent Masons, the law firm behind Out-Law.com, said that heavier sanctions, more stringent ownership controls and financial monitoring are needed to prevent more football clubs from entering into administration.
"We have seen case after case of football clubs experiencing financial difficulty but for a long time now clubs have been easily acquired and subsequently resisted severe restrictions to deter them from spending vast percentages of turnover on player wages. FIFA's Financial Fair Play rules will hopefully tighten clubs' spending to reflect only what they generate in revenue but the real question is whether or not clubs are going to act with long-term stability in mind," he said.
World football governing body FIFA has introduced new 'financial fair play' rules that assess a club's efforts to 'break even' financially over three seasons, including the one currently being contested. From 2013-14 UEFA will be able to ban clubs from playing in European competitions the following season.

Hair Coloring and pH LevelQ: Why is it important to restore the pH level of hair after coloring?
A: When you color your hair you are causing the hair cuticle to swell or open up. This happens so that the hair dye can enter into the hair shaft. During the hair coloring process you are also causing the pH level to rise.
Hair's natural pH level is between 4.5 and 5.5 so when it is raised you are opening the hair cuticle. It's important to restore the pH level of hair so that it closes again and therefore keeps your hair color locked in.

Going through airport security is about as fun as a deep heel bruise. TSA workers do their best to keep us safe, but putting every single person through an invasive process that robs you of your valuable bottled water and shampoo is at best a necessary evil. And that's why it's so clever for Nike SB to spin the situation as a chance to show off the tech specs for their newest and most advanced sneaker yet, the Nike SB Zoom FP.

Emma Watson says she'd get naked for a role
If you think Emma Watson is just going to disappear once the Harry Potter series is over you'd be wrong -- although her clothing might, if she even decides to keep acting.
"I have enough to hold me together without fame," the 18-year-old tells the London Times. "I have a really supportive family and a full life away from Harry Potter. It's unlikely that I'll be part of anything this big ever again, so I need to deal with that. I'm not going to take a job just because ... I'm not doing anything else."
More importantly, the paper is decent enough to ask her, should a good job become available, would she go nude for the right role?
"Yes, for Bernardo Bertolucci," she says. "It ... depends. I'm not getting my kit off any time soon, but it is part of my job."
Also part of her job is getting as much press as possible in advance of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, apparently by promising a sequel called Harry Potter and the Half-Nude Hermione.

Share the Water: It's All About Speed
When it comes to interacting with other groups on (or off) the water, how fast we're going makes all the difference.
September 26, 2013
Ever since Share the Water: Unspoken Rules of Sailors, Fishermen, Powerboaters, and Paddlers went live, I've been hearing from people who agree with it. I've even received a few requests for reprinting, and one very flattering comment: "Every Yacht Club should have this on their website."
I guess I shouldn't be surprised. After all, my premise was that each of us has unshared ideas about how other people and groups should behave on the water. Which is a pretty basic concept.
What I've realized since then is how much our sense of personal space is based on the speed at which we are traveling, especially when compared to the speed of others. Slow sailboaters think medium-paced powerboats are going too fast, and those same medium-paced powerboaters think those high performance guys are going too fast.
It's the same with cars and bikes and pedestrians on land. What seems perfectly reasonable in a car seems much too fast when on a bike or on foot.
What do you think? How do we better get along on the water, so we can all enjoy it?

Hypnotherapy and Counselling in Peterborough and surrounding areas, Jill Wagner Hyp Dip CS.
We don't have to stay within the constraints of our belief system. Making a decision to change our thinking can be the beginning of a healthier, happier, more successful life.
What do I do?
I help people achieve personal satisfaction and peace of mind by helping them to control anxiety, stress and panic attacks. By using Hypnotherapy and/or Counselling to create a state of relaxation and promoting a feeling of well being, I may be help you to control fears, phobias and break bad habits, replacing them with good, positive behaviour.
For example, changing our attitudes towards food is the key to a long term healthy weight. Diets work short term because our conscious mind is in play. Hypnotherapy can access our subconscious mind and change the way we think about food and create healthier attitudes towards food and lifestyle which will result in long term weight loss.
"Absolutely amazing; I've now got the motivation to go gym and lose weight and I'm doing really well! Thank you so much!!"
"Extremely grateful to you Jill that I now have beautiful long nails, can wear my rings and not have to hide my hands all the time. Thank you, Karen."
The following testimonial is from a lady who had been afraid to fly for many years, she had forgone opportunities to travel and had even missed opportunities to attend incentive holiday prizes that she had worked so hard to achieve! Finally, after four sessions of Hypnotherapy she attended a conference in Singapore this year. As you can see she was delighted!
"Jill. I will always be eternally grateful to you for my sessions to conquer my fear of flying :) After many years of missing out on travel abroad I stepped confidently onto the flight to Dubai and actually enjoyed it !! The onward flights onto Singapore were a breeze too :) Your calm and understanding nature made my relaxation sessions with you comfortable and enjoyable , I will always recommend you highly."
Flying opens up a whole world to us literally! This testimonial is from a young girl who was desperate to go on holiday with her boyfriend, but she suffered with anxiety and this included a fear of flying.
"Jill is amazing! Has totally changed my perspective on a lot of things and helped me conquoury my fear of flying - and I was totally calm during both my flights and am now so much more confident with flying and in day to day life ... Can not thank Jill enough for all she has done!! Xx
Jill has a genuine interest in helping her clients address their emotional needs. She is always there in moments of need outside of the therapy area, and listens and interprets with a very caring approach. I think her down to earth nature made her a particularly good counsellor in my experience. I strongly recommend Jill. Thanks! "
"Jill really helped with my stress. Before I came to her I couldn't handle the stresses in life and was having anxiety attacks because of that. Now after seeing her I am handling my stress a lot better and knowing when to take myself away from it and sit in a quite room to calm myself down before having an anxiety attack. I am really thankful for Jill's help and I highly recommended her."
Hypnosis is a state of relaxation which makes us more open to positive suggestions. Contact me to learn more, I can advise over the telephone and if appropriate book an initial consultation to begin writing your bespoke treatment plan.

About-Face: Treauries Turn Positive On The Day
How volatile are bonds lately? Long-dated Treasuries have reversed course and just turned positive on the day, after government bonds of all stripes had fallen sharply this morning. The 30-year bond is up 10/32 in price, dropping its yield to 3.548%, per Tradeweb data, down from 3.587% at the start of the day and an intraday high of 3.646%. The ten-year note is lagging a bit, still down 2/32 to yield 2.522%, down from a 2.661% intraday high.
Volatility. Bonds. Volatility. Bonds. Still sounds like an odd word pairing, but far less unusual now than a couple of months ago.

Hello, I am 29 years old, 5'2" and 32D from Canada, seeking a breast lift, NO augmentation. Photos attached. Distance from neck to nipple is 22cm ish. I've lost about 20 pounds over the years and, growing up, I think I was not wearing a nearly supportive-enough bra. I have loose skin above the nipple and stretchmarks. Like everyone else, I want minimal scarring and am wondering if I would be a good candidate for the donut or cresent lift. Also, best solutions for stretchmarks? Thank you

Candidate for Donut or Crescent Lift?
Thank you for your question and the attached photos.
If you are content with your current breast size, there is no reason that she shouldn't expect a nice improvement with a doughnut mastopexy. This works well when the nipple and areola don't have to be moved very far and when there is not a large amount of skin excess.
The crescent lift but probably not do enough of a lift. In addition I find patients are generally last pleased with an incision part way around the areola and one all the way around.
Best wishes.
Candidate for Circumareolar Breast Lifting?
Thank you for the question in pictures.
Although you may be an excellent candidate for circumareolar breast lifting surgery, whether you should undergo the operation or not will depend on your specific goals. I would suggest that you meet with well experienced board-certified plastic surgeons to discuss these goals, surgical options, as well as a potential risks/complications associated with each option. Make sure you consider the presence of scars, the potential abnormal scarring, areolar spreading, areola asymmetry…as you make your decisions. Personally, ( generally speaking) I do not recommend the "crescent" breast lift, because of the high incidence of unsatisfactory outcomes.
I hope this helps.

Breast lift with minimal scarring
Dear Baffled,
Thank you for your question and photos.
You seem to be an ideal candidate for the Mini Ultimate Breast Lift. The Mini UBL does not require a vertical scar to successfully lift and move breast tissue (in your case, moving it towards the breast bone). This is achieved by a series of internal straps fashioned from your own tissue to permanently secure your tissue and prolong the life of your lift. Your only incision is that of a circumareolar incision. A crescent or donut mastopexy can only remove excess skin and move the nipple/areola complex.
Hope this helps.
Kind regards,
Dr. H

Thanks for the photos. Maybe a donut lift would help but either a L-shaped lift or full anchor with scars could be your only option. Seek in person consults
Breast lift and implants
If I do a small lift with implants, I prefer doing a circumareola lift rather than a crescent. As for stretch marks they can not be removed.
What Type Of Lift Do I Need?
If by the term donut mastopexy, you are referring to a circumferential or Benelli mastopexy, I think this is a reasonable alternative which will leave minimal scarring and will correct some, but not all, of your droop (ptosis).
The best technique for a breast lift (mastopexy)
Dear Baffled One
Breast lifts are, like so many operations, a compromise - the less scarring you have, you compromise on shape; whilst if you are prepared for more scars, the shape of your breast will be optimised.
That said, looking at your photos, you would be a candidate for either a circumareolar (doughnut) mastopexy or a circumvertical mastopexy (with the additional vertical scar going down from the nipple to the breast crease.
What I said above applies with both these options. The more powerful and longer lasting of the two is the circumvertical, but you have to accept the additional scar. This scar fades with time and, in my opinion, is worth the trade.
Regarding your stretch marks, these are a result of a breakdown of collagen links within the skin (the building blocks of the skin structure), so no cream or laser is going to remove these. Unfortunately there is no reliably good treatment available for them (despite what many claim!)
Good luck with your decision, and I hope this helps
Breast lift procedure
You appear to have some asymmetry and if you want smaller areola size I would perform a vertical mastopexy. No good treatment for stretch marks uless they are red then laser can remove the redness. Good luck and please see a board certified plastic surgeon.
Crescent or Donut Lift?
The crescent lift also removes a small amount of skin at the top of the areola. We find that there is very little lift and the areola becomes oval in shape and distorted with this method. So, it appears that both methods would be an option, but likely the donut lift would be better.
Candidate for Donut or Crescent Lift? (photo)
While I can see the merit in avoiding an implant, IMHO, doing either lift without an appropriately sized implant would result in only mild rejuvenation of the breasts, so you may want to consider all options.

Jeremy Piven's Gayer Than a Picnic Basket
Not really. Look, I know you struggled for years in shitty movies. And I know watching Cusack get all the good roles and all the broads musta been tough. But seriously, deflate that head. Piven's all joking he's gay and saying he always seems to be out partying because he's so damn popular . Shut it.
JEREMY Piven likes to joke about why he's 41 and single. "I'd love to have a girlfriend – if I weren't gay," he tells Playboy's March issue. "That's right, I'm gay! I'm gayer than Liberace in 1972." As to why he's seen as a round-the-clock party boy, Piven adds, "At the moment, I happen to be the mother[bleep]ing pretty girl . . . The pretty girl who goes to the hot spot sure does look like she goes out all the time, right?"
A friend and fellow homo thinks Piven is the hottest thing since nuclear fission. For a brief amount of time, I would have agreed with him. But he's just so desperate to be cool and sassy. Stop. Sit down. Go make up with Cusack and have a beer and an ego check.

Softcover | Author: Chris Prentiss
A timeless work about the Zen of happiness, the art of happiness, the way of happiness, and the inner game of happiness.
The "Zen" of doing anything is doing it with a particular state of mind that brings the experience of enlightenment, and through that experience, happiness. In Zen and the Art of Happiness, you will learn how to think and feel so that what you think and feel creates happiness and vibrancy in your life rather than gloominess or depression.
Cutting-edge science and spirituality tell us that what we believe, think, and feel actually determine the makeup of our body at the cellular level. We all have a personal philosophy that influences our thoughts and feelings. It deals with what we have come to believe about the world, its people and its events, about how those events affect us and how we affect them. Whatever your personal philosophy is, it is completely responsible for your state of happiness and well-being because it determines how you respond to events that come into your life.
How can we change what we believe when our experience has convinced us otherwise? By creating a new experience. The gentle wisdom of Zen and the Art of Happiness will show you how to invite those magnificent experiences into your life and create a philosophy that will sustain you through anything.
Zen and the Art of Happiness by Chris Prentiss (co-founder and co-director of Passages Substance Abuse Treatment Center) is a book presenting practical, spiritual, applicable wisdom from the Eastern philosophy of Zen Buddhism, designed to provide the reader with a positive, uplifting message that we can affect and influence the very makeup of our body at a cellular level through what we believe, think, and feel. That when we create happiness and vibrancy within our lives we are better able to adapt to life's inevitable stresses and changes. By learning to deal with stress and change in healthy ways, we create, nurture, and perpetuate 'mindful happiness' in our daily lives. Zen and the Art of Happiness is enthusiastically recommended and 'user friendly' reading for anyone seeking to enhance their spirituality, deal with life's stresses, and improve their physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being." �James A. Cox, Editor-in-Chief, Midwest Book Review

Hi Guys,
I was working on a workbook yesterday and now it won't open.
The workbook has two worksheets, I created a userform with a 2 page multipage (1 for each worksheet) to get info from each sheet. I had finished page 1 with all the correct scripts, I had checked it to make sure it worked. I then copied all from page 1 to page 2 and started changing the scripts accordingly, I got about half way through when I lost power to my laptop.
I now open the workbook, but it locks up as if it is running a script but looping and I can't stop it. I can't attach it as it is too big (409kb), if anybody can suggest how I can open it and stop whatever is looping I would be greatfull.
Hi simpsonc2
Try opening from within Excel, while holding down the Shift key. This will prevent any Workbook Open/Activate Event macros running.
I tried what you suggested and got the following message???
"Cannot open Microsoft Excel Add-In for editing. Please edit the source document instead"
Any suggestions
Try opening your workbook without enabling macros, then check your code to se if you can locate the cause. Check the Workbook_Open and Activate first. If it auto runs the userform on opening check the userform_initialise event
