Meow Meow arrives for our interview directly from rehearsal, and if she sounds slightly breathless, it's entirely understandable.
"I've been flung around the room by dancing boys all day," says the cabaret sensation, theater artist and international uber-diva, who is currently putting the finishing touches on her new show for Berkeley Repertory Theatre.
"An Audience with Meow Meow," which opens the company's 47th season, promises an evening of song, satire and the kind of inspired mayhem that only Meow Meow can create. With choreography by Tiger Martina and music supervision by Lance Horne, the show is directed by Kneehigh Theatre's Emma Rice, whose previous productions for Berkeley Rep include "The Wild Bride" and "Tristan & Yseult."
Meow Meow's shows in smaller venues have been termed "kamikaze cabaret." But she has something very different in store for Bay Area audiences.
"There's certainly a kamikaze element to it — the wildness of flinging myself on an audience," she says. "That doesn't change. It's got songs and some of my magnificent monologues. But this is a full-scale theater piece — a new musical play. It has a narrative, and it's quite intense and beautiful."
Rice, she notes, is an ideal collaborator. The two women met in New York a few years back, and the director promptly cast her in a new production of Michel Legrand's "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg" in London's West End.
"I've loved Emma from the moment we met," she says. "She's really rare — she has a very specific ability to make beauty out of the mundane and find the magic in the most ridiculous scenarios."
The same could be said of Meow Meow. Born Melissa Madden Gray, the Australian singer began her career in clubs, cabarets and gay bars. Since then, she's left audiences purring from London to Berlin, Sydney to Paris, New York to Los Angeles. Her repertoire ranges widely, from Brecht and Brel to contemporary songs by Morrissey and Amanda Palmer.
The songs that move her, she says, usually have a strong storytelling element. One of her all-time favorite singers is Nina Simone.
"I'm a huge fan," she says, "the way she could absolutely rip the guts out of any text. I remember her singing 'Feelings,' which I'd only heard in sort of a saccharine way. When she sang it, it was the most excruciating, devastating, broken story."
The songs of Brecht and Weill also inspire her; with the London Philharmonic, she sang the role of Pirate Jenny in "Threepenny Opera" to rave reviews.
"I love them for their political drive, yet they're the most romantic, torn-apart, sensual songs," she says. "It's an extraordinary combination."
The new show, which features a small ensemble of dancers and musicians, includes a range of works from Weill to Radiohead, as well as original Meow Meow compositions with collaborators Thomas Lauderdale (Pink Martini) and Iain Grandage. "It can go from a hard, edgy contemporary sound to very delicate salon music, all beautifully put together in ways I can't reveal," she says.
One thing she will divulge is that her journey has yielded some extraordinary quirks of fate. Along the way, she's collaborated with Barry Humphries (aka Dame Edna), Mikhail Baryshnikov, David Bowie and Pina Bausch.
It was Bausch, says Meow Meow, who taught her the value of trusting her theatrical instincts. The late German choreographer invited her to perform at a dance festival, and Meow Meow recalls crowd-surfing and landing at Bausch's feet. Bausch looked at her and exclaimed "Vhat a voman!"
Now Meow Meow is eager to unleash her newest creation on the Bay Area.
"It's funny, it's sexy. But there's a larger concern for the world that comes through in all of my work," she says. "It is an audience with Meow Meow, after all. They are the audience, and I am Meow Meow. It's that beautiful relationship.

"some good, some bad nursing"
About: The Great Western Hospital The Great Western Hospital Swindon SN3 6BB
Posted via NHS Choices
Anything else?
I had a sub total hysterectomy with some complications. Pre-op the anesthetist was fantastic, and the staff good. Post-op I was in a lot of pain which wasn't managed, I was very scared and felt very vulnerable. One nurse tried to get me out of bed the following day, I was in agony and collapsed. She seemed to think that I should have been able to get up, which made me feel awful. I saw the consultant that day and he explained to me that the operation had been technically difficult and he had punctured my bladder. He said it would take time for me to recover as I had had so much work done. I don't know why this information was not passed onto the nursing staff or indeed why did they not read my notes to understand my physical condition. I was sent home 4 days after the operation on a Friday with a catheter to return on the Monday to have it removed, I felt very poorly. On returning I collapsed in the toilet and my husband asked the nurse for a bed nothing was done, there was no response from the nurse, I was in agony and very distressed so in the end he gave me morphine put me in a wheelchair and took me home. The nursing is very mixed on the ward, there are a couple of brilliant nurses who actually care and others who I feel really shouldn't be in nursing Iwouldn't want to be so unwell and in their care again.

Cinematographicus: "Serenity" (2005)
In a move that would once more prove that Fox is a network of complete morons, Firefly died in 2002, shortly after seeing the light of day. Its questionable numbers in viewership were certainly not helped by the fact that Fox aired the episodes out of order (the very pilot wasn't aired for two or three weeks after the SECOND installment was shown!), juggled its time slot like a hopped-up circus clown, and unreasonably would go weeks on end without airing a new one. The last four episodes of the season had been produced but never saw the light of day until the DVD release a couple years later.
The show's premise was creatively original and fresh, something that hadn't been done in some time. Classified as a "Sci-Fi Western" (side note: did you know that "Star Wars" was originally labeled a western?), the show followed a retired Confederate rebel who'd earned his veteran status in an intragalactic battle with the Alliance, the future's Man and governing body that performs unspeakable acts of horror and downright intrusion in the name of justice and peace. Mal, now captain of a small crew aboard a ship they use to run their business as smugglers, spends his time running jobs and quietly avoiding run-ins with the Alliance by keeping his work as far into the outskirts of society as possible.
What's more to add to the very Western feel of the premise is that, despite advancements in technology, shotguns and revolvers are still common weapons. Mal carries a sidearm in a holster around his waist on a regular basis. There's also an episode that involves the transportation and herding of a large number of cattle. Certainly an unorthodox setting for an attempt at pop culture success, but nonetheless delightful. Mal's the type of character you love to watch. He doesn't put up with the silly, cliche-type setups that most pop culture icons find themselves in (he's more likely to blow a bad guy's head off than listen to his attempt at a monologue), and thus provides a critique of formulaic storytelling and melodrama. Each and every member of the crew is also a treat in his or her own respect.
Joss Whedon, creator of Firefly (and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, among others), managed to draw a cult following after the show's cancellation. It was strong enough to get the studios to back a feature film that took us back to this universe, and it was the preview of this film that sparked my interest in these characters (I didn't watch any television, aside from bits and pieces of Carita de Angel, from 2001-2003 and therefore missed the series' original airing). An old roommate of mine owned the DVD set of Firefly and let me watch the pilot before hitting up the theater for the film.
Hands down, "Serenity" is one of the most well-constructed movies I've ever seen. In addition to all the excellent elements carried over from the TV show, the visuals are greatly enhanced by the budget of a major motion picture, the story's intensity is kicked up about ten notches, and the action sequences are all the more stunning. You know how, in most films, you can somewhat predict the overall outcome of the story, depending on their genre and inciting incidents? Well, the genius of Joss Whedon's tale here was that it somehow managed to keep me guessing the entire length of the film! In fact, there was a long stretch of the story where I felt an utter sense of hopelessness for Mal and his crew -- there was NO way they were going to walk away from this situation, even if they were to succeed in their ultimate objective (and, in fact, some of them don't). The sense of doom was thicker than Christina Ricci's forehead!
The other major element of "Serenity" that makes this movie so interesting to me is its message that teaches the viewer to never be a fence-sitter, but to rather take a stance on issues (of any magnitude) and proactively stand by them. This theme is illustrated as Mal finds himself having to wrestle with the fact that merely "staying out of the Alliance's way" is detrimental and imprisoning, not to mention unjust to the people who have less power than he to oppose their iron fist. The point is not to always come out on top, the point is to do what you feel is right and embrace that part of you. The theme is a very important message, and a very unique one at that, given the large number of films that seem to teach us no more than "don't get carried away with science" or "BFF's are more important then selling out for romance."
Finally, if NOTHING else convinces you to rent this movie right away, know that it's jam-packed with awesome action sequences. Not only are there some complex, explosive space battles (side note: Whedon opts to go with a slightly more scientific approach to the outer space battle sequence in that, when an explosion occurs in the vacuum, there is no accompanying "kaboom!" sound), but one of the major characters (who is an inciting incident for the entire series) surprisingly breaks out of her mellow shell and delivers some fan-freakin'-tastic hand-to-hand combat scenes that WILL blow you away.
I give this film a definite 10/10 rating and sincerely hope a sequel is made one day.

Almost 10 years later, Art Powell is by himself in his garage, looking through storage bins when he finds a lavender envelope, palm-size and almost square.
He had been sifting through old photographs of himself and his identical-twin brother, photos of them together as babies in matching outfits, together in high school, together in a band after college, together in a studio producing music, together in the apartment they shared until American Airlines Flight 77 struck the Pentagon.
He sees the envelope, his name written on the front: "Art." He pulls out the paper and reads the first words: "I apologize for intruding at such a painful time . . ."
Art slips the letter back in the envelope, walks inside to the sunroom and hands it to his wife, who says, "Gosh, that looks like my horrible handwriting."
She looks closer. "Oh my goodness."
Stephanie Powell wrote that note on Sept. 19, 2001, when she was Stephanie Dawson and didn't know Art nearly as well as she knew his brother Scott. Almost 10 years later, she reads the note. She reads it again and turns to Art.
"My tears are in here, somewhere," she says. "Dried up."
Everyone who knew them mourned Scott when he died at the Pentagon on Sept. 11, 2001. Everyone worried about his twin brother, Art.
To see one was to see the other, as it had been nearly every day of every week of every year since they were born 15 minutes apart in 1966, the youngest of five children.
If one died, how could the other live?
"I'm okay," Art likes to tell people. He smiles when he says it. "I'm good."
What does it mean to be good, though? What happens when you lose the only other person on Earth who could be you?
What does it mean to be okay?
They had shared a room as babies, rattling their cribs until they were close enough for one to climb over the railing to be with the other. By age 2, they were banging pots and pans in the kitchen, then drums in the basement where their father played guitar. When they were 5, their mother took them to Port-au-Prince, where she studied dance and they played with master drummers. Back home in Pittsburgh, they drummed on a children's television show.
They looked so much alike that no one bothered with their names, not even the twins themselves.
"My brother and I . . . " they would say.
"How come you don't dress alike?" friends and strangers would ask.
"If I hit one, will the other feel it?"
The twins had their own questions.
"Who's who?" they'd ask, daring anyone to figure out what made them different.
Stephanie Dawson was 14 when a friend told her about the brothers who were getting lots of attention at Duke Ellington School of the Arts in D.C. They were musicians, well-mannered, clean-cut, good-looking and cool.
A double date was arranged. Her friend matched Stephanie with Scott, and the two of them became good friends. Stephanie confided in Scott. She went to movies and concerts with him. She went to see his band perform.
The twins left for college, and Stephanie moved away. She didn't see Scott again for more than a dozen years, until July 2001, and only because she bumped into him on the Metro.
"Scott!" she said.
"Stephanie, how have you been?"
She told him about her recent divorce and that she had moved back to D.C. He told her about his three children, how he and his brother had formed Dem Twinzz Productions and signed recording deals, about their day jobs in IT.
Scott got a job at the Pentagon, followed by Art, who then moved over to the Securities and Exchange Commission. They lived together in Silver Spring and rode the Metro together to and from work.
On Labor Day in 2001, Scott and Stephanie went for a walk in a park. They sat on a bench, looked at photographs of Scott's kids and talked about their work. The park is where Scott liked to relax. If you're ever looking for me, he told her, this is where you can find me. At dusk, Scott drove Stephanie home.
Eight days later, Scott was dead. Eight days after that, Stephanie went to the building where Art and Scott had shared an apartment.
"Who do you want to see?" the doorman asked.
"Art Powell," she said, and then realized she didn't want to see Art because to see Art was to see Scott and that would just make her cry all over again.
The doorman was on the phone with Art while she wrote the note and tucked it inside the lavender envelope that he would rediscover 10 years later in the storage bin in their garage. Then she drove away.
Art Powell was in London when he saw on television that a plane had struck the north tower of the World Trade Center. He was still watching when he learned that a second plane had hit the south tower. He called Scott at the Pentagon.
A woman answered.
"You know what's going on in New York?" he asked.
"We know what's going on," she said, laughing nervously. "It's the end of the world."
She said Scott had stepped away from his desk.
Half an hour later, Art found out that a plane had crashed into the Pentagon. He called his brother again. No answer. He called his cellphone. No answer. He called their apartment. No answer.
By that night, he was grappling with the idea that his brother could be dead.
Art had gone to London to play music and spend time with a woman he loved. Their plan was that she would move to the United States and that they would be together.
But now his attention was on his brother. It took Art eight days to get back to Washington, and in that time questions began to form.
What if I had been there? Could I have saved him? Why was he the one to die?
Art dreaded the thought of returning home as the surviving twin. "Who wants to walk into that?" he recalled asking himself. "You're this guy's twin brother. They're looking at you with that drama. I ain't having it."
The first thing Art saw when he arrived at their building was a shrine in the lobby, a photo of Scott surrounded by candles. Their answering machine was full.
He heard his own message asking Scott to call. He heard another from Stephanie Dawson: "Scott, this is Stephanie. I made it home. I need to know you and Art are okay." He read the note she had left with the doorman: "I'm here for you and your family. Please contact me when you get a chance." Weeks later, Art called to invite her to his brother's memorial service. She felt comforted by the sight of him delivering the eulogy in front of all those people.
Days after the service, they ran into each other in downtown Silver Spring, then at a supermarket and at the Metro station. He called her every so often, then more frequently, then every night at 8 p.m. Whenever he called, they talked about their day, their interest in Buddhism, about what they had eaten for dinner. Everyday things. Sometimes they talked for so long that they fell asleep on the phone.
He liked that she had known his brother. He liked that she didn't scream or cry, for the most part, and neither did he. He liked that one time when he did cry, standing in her closet and knowing she could hear him, she didn't press him when it was over.
One day she was in a supermarket, looking at a waffle iron and thinking, "I should buy that for Art because he likes waffles." Then thinking: "What's going on here?"
She called Art to tell him she bought the waffle iron, and he felt surprised and a bit strange. He imagined his brother asking: "What are you doing?" What about the woman in London?
"Art?" Stephanie said one day. "Something very weird is going on."
She asked herself: Why hadn't anything romantic happened between Scott and her? Would something be happening between her and Art if Scott were alive? Is this wrong?
By September 2002, Stephanie and Art were in love. Nearly a year later, they were married. Twelve days after that, Art brought Stephanie to the opening in Rockville of a memorial for those killed at the Pentagon on 9/11, each of whom was represented by a stainless-steel bench. Art chose one of his brother's favorite sayings as his epitaph. Two words engraved in metal: "Don't complain."
Eight years later, on a bright summer Sunday, Art is at his townhouse in Silver Spring, in his favorite room, the sunroom.
"Broccoli, mushrooms and onions?" Stephanie asks her husband, planning their dinner salad.
"Maybe oatmeal for dessert," he says.
Soon they would be driving to the Pentagon for the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks.
On the ninth anniversary, they had gone to the Pentagon for the first time since Scott died. They went because an elderly aunt, thinking she might not be alive for another year, asked Art to take her. He doesn't like, as he puts it, "big to-dos." But he was there last year and will go again this year because someone needs to take care of the logistics, getting his family in and out, from here to there.
When people talk about missing his twin, Art understands that when they see him, they think of Scott. He listens. He feels compassion if they become tearful. He just doesn't want to say much. He doesn't want to cry.
You're channeling your brother, a friend who played in the band with the twins long ago says one day as he listens to Art play the keyboard.
Art shrugs. After his brother's death, he changed the name of Dem Twinzz Productions to Minus 1 Productions. Anything can trigger a thought about his brother. But he no longer dwells on the big what-ifs of that day 10 years ago.
Instead, when he and Stephanie bought a new Lexus, they talked about what model Mercedes Scott would be driving now. When he flew to Los Angeles for a music project, they talked about how cool it would have been for Scott and Art to be in the studio again.
For the most part, Art's life is now with Stephanie.
Every weekday morning, they drive downtown to work together. Every evening, they drive home together. On weekends, they like to eat brunch at a downtown hotel together. They go to the dentist together, the carwash together, the supermarket together.
At home, they sit together in the sunroom, where the note Stephanie wrote 10 years ago now rests in a letter holder on a table. Sometimes he misses his brother so suddenly and fiercely that the feeling can leave him off-balance. In those moments, Art Powell knows what his brother would say: Don't complain.
He doesn't. He sits. He is back in the sunroom, next to his wife. He is okay.

How to Get Ready for Another BBQ Season
There's no doubt about it, some of the tastiest meals come straight off the grill sizzling and hot. For the best grilling experience, get your grill cleaned up and ready to go. Learn how to prepare your gas or charcoal grill, so you're ready for National Beef Month in May.
Firing up the Gas Grill
Before setting a date for your first barbeque of the season, you need to make sure your grill is clean and working at optimum performance. Use this checklist to make sure you haven't forgotten or overlooked anything important.
1. Clean off dust, debris, cobwebs and dead spiders. Run a good stiff brush over the top, sides and base of your grill to get rid of last year's dirt.
2. Tackle the grease trap. Empty out the old grease trap and replace it with fresh aluminum foil or a new foil pan.
3. Clean the grill grates. After checking for leaks and making necessary repairs, you can go ahead and light the grill to clean the grates. The easiest method to clean grates is to fire up the grill to high and use a wire brush to clean off the grates.
4. Check the gas grill for leaks. Examine all the hoses for cracks or damage. Hose leaks can be detected by brushing couplings and hoses with a solution of equal parts of water and dish soap. If bubbles appear on the hoses, you've got a gas leak and should replace the hose.
5. Verify the igniter is working properly. Push in the igniter, listen for the click, and look for the spark. If the button fails, you'll need to replace your battery by unscrewing the nut located beneath the igniter. It may also be found behind control panels in some models. A AAA battery should easily fix the problem.
6. Lubricate all moving parts and burner knobs with silicone spray or WD-40® to keep them moving freely.
7. Unblock clogged burner tubes. Take the grates and baffles out of the grill to make sure all burner tubes are burning properly. Start up the grill and look for flames. If some of the burner tubes are blocked, use a wire to dislodge debris.
8. Light your grill to test that everything is functioning properly and ready for the grilling season.
9. Make sure you start the season with a full tank of propane, and start inviting the guests.
Preparing the Charcoal Grill for Action
1. Hose off all parts of the grill to remove dust and grime after removing any old ashes.
2. Look for damage, scratches and rust. If you only have small amounts of rust, you can buff it off using steel wool or a wire brush. Apply a primer and use metal paint designed for grills to repaint.
3. Check all movable parts such as handles and wheels that may need repairs or replacing.
4. Scrub the grates using a mild dish detergent and your grill brush.
5. Avoid smoking grills or trouble lighting by purchasing a new bag of charcoal briquettes.
Spruce up the Patio
Whether you're holding a family get together or entertaining friends, make sure your patio is ready for company. Check all the outdoor lights to make sure they're working and you have plenty of comfortable seating for guests. Hosing off the patio deck, tables and chairs a few hours before the barbeque ensures that everyone has a clean spot to relax and enjoy the party.
Treat Yourself to a Night Out!
Although, grilling at home is one of the best ways to usher in the National Beef Month, sometimes it just doesn't work out. Too much wind or spring rains can really put a damper on grilling plans. However, if you've got a taste for beef and would enjoy a night out, you should check out our restaurants. Because we're holding a Rounding up the Beef promotion in May!
• You've got some great options like the Farmer's Pick Buffet® every Friday and Saturday night. They've got a wonderful Steak & Prime Rib Buffet for just $19.95 that's tender and delicious.
• Farraddays® also has some amazing beef dining specials. Satisfy your craving for beef with rib eye steaks, New York strip steaks or marvelous filet mignon steaks.
• In addition, you can enjoy an outstanding meal at Keller's® or discover good prices and fine dining at The Lone Wolf® Express.
Cleaning up and making repairs on outdoor grills only takes about 30 minutes. However, it's worth it to make sure they're safe and ready for grilling. If the weather should spoil your steak grilling plans, or you just want to enjoy an excellent steak cooked by someone else, don't forget about us for delicious beef choices and plenty of fun.

The sweetest gift
Published by Eternity in the blog Eternity's blog. Views: 108
The familiar pang shot a fear stronger than the pain through her, from the top of her blond head to the tip of her toes.
"Oh, no," she moaned, clutching at her stomach, rounded to a perfect orb, now clenching and re-clenching with the contractions. "No, God, no, please," she begged, clenching her legs together as though it would stop.
"Alice? You okay in there?" Amanda's voice was muffled from behind the door and through the pounding blood that rushed in her ears.
"Amanda! I need help…" she stopped, gasping, as another pain shot through her, gripping her lower back and pelvis. She cried out as the excruciating pain held, and held, for an eternity… until, finally, it went away. She collapsed on the linoleum floor, pulling her knees towards her heart, which was pounding triple time.
"Alice?" She heard Amanda fumbling with the slide lock, trying to undo it, trying to open the door, knocking and calling frantically to her sister-in-law. Slowly the sound of her voice faded, the room swirled around Alice's contorting body and she closed her eyes, welcoming the blackness.
"Alice?" Amanda's voice was gentle. "Alice, are you okay?"
"Amanda, the baby," Alice said, her voice breaking.
"Ssh," Amanda crooned, taking her brother's wife into her arms and cradling her like a lost kitten.
"I lost it, didn't I?" Alice asked. She felt Amanda move, clear her throat. Nod.
"No! No, please! No-oo." Alice broke down, sobbing brokenly, grieving for yet another tiny life taken from her body. Her sobs were raw, heart wrenching. Amanda, holding her gently, fought tears as she shared in the anguish that was ripping her friend and sister in half.
Alice sat like a ghost, curled up in a huge, brightly coloured afghan on the deep, wide, soft couch that she loved so much. Amanda brought her all sorts of comforting delicacies from the kitchen: cheese and kabana, water crackers, Savoy biscuits, fruit kebabs and a huge mug of Milo that Alice clutched with trembling fingers. The young woman's eyes were huge and empty, shadowed by dark circles that emphasized the pallor of her skin.
Amanda had encouraged her to have a shower and while Alice had washed over her lower body slowly and let her head hang underneath the steaming water, Amanda had searched through some of her drawers to find some comfy old "bum-around-in" clothes that she usually wore on stay-at-home weekends and could loan to Alice for a while.
"Is there anything I can do?" Amanda asked softly, sitting on an embroidered ottoman at Alice's feet and taking one cold hand in her own. No response. The room was silent.
Eventually Amanda stood up and walked over to the open fire, which had died down to a softly popping pile of red embers. Watching Alice cautiously, she quickly stoked the fire and returned to her low seat by the other woman.
The day slowly waned, as did the fire, and still Alice hadn't spoken. The grandfather clock on the opposite side of the cottage's sitting room – an inheritance from her father, who died years back – bonged dully as the hour hand reached five o'clock.
"Do you want something to eat?" Amanda asked, eyeing the hardly touched finger-food on the little table by Alice's left arm. Alice looked up, her eyes shimmering with tears. "Do you have any spaghetti?"
Amanda watched Alice eat, her heart constricting with pain. It seemed that in just a short few hours Alice had turned into just a shell of the beautiful, friendly woman she had been yesterday. Now her hair was snarled, still damp from her mid-morning shower, hanging about her shoulders in long, auburn tangles. Her face was pinched.
"You'll get through this, Alice." Amanda couldn't help feeling as though her words were cliché, meaningless.
Alice stirred the freshly cooked noodles around on the plate, watching the tomato sauce ooze onto the white china, tiny globules of grease glistening in the warm light of the kitchen. "It's the fifth time, Amanda."
Amanda watched the woman for a while; considering; weighing her next words. "You could adopt, Alice."
Alice looked up. Her green eyes, previously so bright and cheerful, were dull and hopeless. She said nothing, but managed a slight nod of her head.
The knocking on the door broke through the silence in the room. Reluctant to leave Alice, Amanda glanced towards the lounge, then back at the lethargic woman sitting at the table. Alice looked up. "Someone's at the door."
"You gonna get it?"
Amanda peeped out the spy hole in her wooden door and her throat constricted when she saw Steve standing on the doorstep.
"Hi," she said softly, opening the door and ushering him in.
Once inside, he turned and gave her a look. "You okay?"
Amanda shook her head, put her hand to her mouth and felt her eyes well with tears. It was the first time she had let herself succumb to tears since 10:00 this morning when she'd heard Alice's cries from the bathroom.
"Oh, Steve," she whispered. He stepped forward and she crumpled in his arms.
"What's up?" His voice was tense.
"It's Alice."
"Oh, God, no," he whispered, taking in a short, ragged breath.
She stepped out of her brother's embrace and put a comforting hand on his forearm. "I'm so sorry, Steve."
Steve moaned, putting his forehead in one big hand, bowing his shoulders like a man suddenly old. Another miscarriage. Another child he'd never see grow up.
Amanda heard a little sob, and turned to see Alice standing in the doorway. Tears were pouring down the would-be mother's cheeks, her shoulders quivering, her pale fingers pressed to her lips. She padded on bare feet along the floorboards towards her husband, and he welcomed her into his arms silently. "I'm so sorry, Steve," she sobbed against his chest, "I'm so sorry."
"It's not your fault," Amanda said softly. Steve was silent, trying to handle his grief. Why was this happening to them? That was five times, now. Five beautiful children he would never know.
Amanda sat the couple at the table, scooped a huge pile of spaghetti bolognaise onto another plate and, sticking a fork into the meal, she pushed the plate over the table towards Steve. Her brother pushed it away and stood up, his face contorted. Alice cowered and Amanda watched silently as he strode over the kitchen floor. "WHY?" he roared. "WHY WOULD THIS HAPPEN TO ME? TO US?"
"Steve, please calm down," Amanda said softly, eyeing his weeping wife with concern.
He rounded on her. "What? You think I can't yell? You think I don't have a right? You think I'm over-reacting? Wait until you get married, then lose baby after baby! You see how you'd react! What right do you have to tell me to be quiet? What right?" He was looming over her now, his neck muscles bulging, his face red. Knowing how he reacted to grief, she wept, but wasn't frightened. It would go away. He was a gentle man. He'd never willingly hurt her, nor Alice.
Steve stormed from the room and she heard the bathroom door slam. He'd be there for a while; the only way he could cool down was to be alone. She knew his habits after being his sister for twenty-six years, and knew that when he came out he would be relatively composed. Amanda turned to the wife, sitting with her head in her hands, tears pouring silently down her arms and into the spaghetti. Amanda quietly removed both meals onto the bench, then sat down on the seat beside Alice that her brother had just vacated. Putting her arms around the woman, Amanda sat without speaking, letting her presence do the comforting that she knew words couldn't.
Steve walked back into the kitchen sometime just past seven o'clock; almost a full hour since he'd stormed out. "I'm sorry," he said softly, his eyes red-rimmed.
Alice lifted her now dry eyes to meet her husband's. "Steve, I'm ever so sorry I've done this again to you," she whispered.
His face crumpled and he went to kneel by her side, taking her in his strong embrace, telling her without words he didn't blame her; still loved her.

Sunglasses After Dark, by award-winning author Nancy A. Collins, tells the story of Sonja Blue, a punk female vampire searching for the man who made her one of the undead, and her battle to overcome her very real inner demon in time to rescue an innocent man from the clutches of an unholy faith healer. While in London, American heiress Denise Thorne disappears from a nightclub, never to be seen again. On that very same night Sonja Blue, a tough-as-nails vampire hunter-slayer, conceived in terror and born of blood, rises from the city's gutters. Saved by modern medicine before she completed her transformation into one of the undead, she becomes a living vampire, determined to fight for what remains of her humanity. Sonja Blue travels the globe, hunting down and disposing of the shadowy creatures that prey on the innocent while searching for the vampire who created her. But as dangerous as hunting vampires may be, it's nothing compared to the threat posed by The Other, the demonic personality Sonja is locked in constant battle with for control of their shared body. Acknowledged as one of the first Urban Fantasy novels, Sunglasses After Dark has garnered wide-spread critical praise and won the Horror Writers Association's coveted Bram Stoker Award, as well as the British Fantasy Society's Icarus Award. Out of print for several years, the Radio Archives edition of Sunglasses After Dark uses the new edition of this novel, which has been extensively revised and edited by the author. It is considered to be the preferred text.

Simply the best.
I've listened to several hundred audiobooks (probably close to a thousand by now) and this book is the best available vampire-audiobook out there (until Nancy Baker's books get reprinted and re-released).
All of it, I've been waiting for years for this book to appear as an audiobook.
No not that I remember, but she really manages to deliver with this performance, the main character is a monster after all.
Of Course, I usually read this series about once a year, as nothing compares and Nancy Collins wrote this before everyone else jumped on the bandwagon..
If you want a real classic of a vampire book, that's really, really dark and gritty and that's just not another one among the modern shit, then listen and/or read this one and the following two books.

If you don't want to spend your whole life selling Time for Money, then you are going to have to start Building Wealth.
There are only Three ways to do this:
- Save and Invest in Paper Assets (Moon)
- Build your own Business (Sun)
- Build a portfolio of Investment Properties (Stars)
Let's discuss each in turn. Please keep the picture of your Fin Freedom Map in mind as we discuss this below.
1. Save and Invest (Build your MOON – retirement)
- This is the method used by most. Work, Save, Invest. If you look at your Map, you'll see yourself spending ALL your Time working (black arrows to your Cloud), selling Time for Money, and then Saving some of it to your Moon (green arrow from Cloud to Moon).
- It is not easy to create Wealth in your Moon. If you invest 'well', you will preserve your Money against the depreciating power of Inflation. If you invest 'very well', you will create a small surplus to re-invest, or use as a 'pension' back to your Cloud.
- You first have to make the Money, before you can save some to your Moon. Banks don't want to lend you money to create Wealth in your Moon. So this is a very very slow process. It takes most people to age 65 before they 'maybe' have enough to stop adding to their Moon.
- This is where Financial Advisors focus 100% of their attention. They want to 'help' you invest your Moon Assets, invariably in products where they earn the best commission.
2. Build a Business (Create your SUN)
- Not that easy, if you look at the statistics around new business failures.
- The big advantages of owning your own Business, though:
- You can use OTP (other peoples time). As long as they produce more than what they cost you.
- You can use OPM (other peoples money). As long as you can use the borrowed money to make more than what that money cost you.
- You can spend before you pay tax. As long as the expenses are used in the production of Income. People earning salaries first pay tax, and only then are they allowed to start spending. Business owners first spend, and only then pay tax.
- These three simple advantages can help you use leverage to build your Wealth much more rapidly than any other way… except…
3. Property (The Light is in the STARS!)
- More ordinary people become Millionaires and Billionaires from property than any other asset class.
- There are lots of ways to invest in property. For the average Salary earner, we advocate only one: RRIP: Residential Rental Income Property. I learned from the No 1 Property Guru in South Africa, Coert Coetzee. Do yourself a big favour and join his Newsletter here for free. (Warning: if you ever buy something from his business, I'll be getting a small kickback, thank you. You will never pay more, though).
- Nowhere else can you use leverage this easily. Banks fall over themselves to give you their money to buy property. After all, it's what they do, isn't it?
- Nowhere else can you get money at such a cheap cost. Interest rates on bonds are the cheapest finance you'll ever get, often below the prime lending rate.
- There are tons of Service Providers available in every facet of your Rental Property Business. Outsource everything! You need to spend your time touring Europe and lying on the beaches of Mauritius, not worrying about broken geysers and obnoxious tenants. :)

And that's it! For more info, feel free to join Your Fin Freedom Map Mini Course. It might still be available for free if you hurry.

Verizon switching to AT&T-style limited data plans later this month? -- Engadget
I don't understand the point of this article. They don't refer to any new developments or source anything official. This has been said before and engadget haven't really said anything new at all here.
Pretty much a useless news article.
Question - whenever they actually do this, will it apply to new contracts only? If they try to do that to an existing contract, isn't that a material change that allows one to cancel the remainder of the contract without any termination fee?
I'm pretty sure they can't change any current contracts at all. If you sign a new contract it will probably change things i.e. if you want to use your NE2 discount you might be forced to use one of the new data plans.
It would just be new contracts. But if they tried to impose such limits on currently existing contracts they would break the terms of the contract, and we would be able to cancel the contract. I don't think Vz is very eager to break their contracts with their customers though. God knows they work hard enough to get us stuck in those contracts for years d:
The archos 5 may start looking better, I can live without the data plan, there are plenty of open wifi spots everywhere, may just have to go back to a dumb phone.
Go back to a dumb phone!!! WTH!! This is why this is so stupid, we are forced to be anxious out of our minds while using a smart phone or go back to a dumb phone how absurd!
I'm obviously not a heavy data user (looked back at my history & so far, .8Gb is max in one month).
I figure there are some things I can do without using data (transfer audible.com & mp3 files via USB from PC).
So I'll just be keeping an eye on things & hope my Droid lasts a long time so I don't have to confront upgrading a phone.
I would imagine that our contracts will change when we are forced to upgrade to a 4G compatible phone with sim card. So until that day, an as long as 3G is backwards compatible on their network, i will stay with the droid1 an hope they don't force us to change until the shutdown of 3G on the network all together.
I just don't get what the point of 4G is if you cant use the apps that make it worthwhile?
we all will be fine its just for new customers
I am guessing you will have to go to tiered priceing for 4G
Well you could just use your Droid to go on wifi and instead of switching to a dumbphone just alter your contract to not include a data plan. (This would be after your current contract ends of course) Just to make sure you don't use any data you could turn off data on the Droid (can only do this on froyo I think). I don't see any reason to go back to a dumbphone when you can keep the droid and drop the data. Unless you are just switching to a dumbphone on principal (=
the news kind of sucks but we are stuck with it unless we vote with our feet. VZ knows they are the big game in town and i don't think this change is going to be enough to get people to start leaving. i know i'll probably take it on the chin for now.
hopefully in 2 years there will be a true coverage rival to VZ.
Report: Verizon Killing Unlimited Data Next Week
It doesn't help that Droid X users are eating up data 5x faster than any other users...
Motorola Droid X Users Eat 5X Data Than Any Other Smartphone On Verizon's Network – SoftSailor
Hopefully we'll be grandfathered in!
I was on AT&T for years, actually since way back when they were SNET Wireless and then Cingular. When my contract ended, the plans had changed. For instance I had a 800 minute planb and when it was time to upgrade my phone and renew my contract, that plan no longer existed but since that was the plan I signe dup for at the beginning I was able to keep it. I have only been with Verizon since December so I dont know how they work it when it comes to that. I dont think they can force you to change plans
I know I'm in the minority here, but I actuall like the idea of tiered data plans if it means I can save some money. And, to be completely frank, if you use lots of data you SHOULD have to pay more than someone who uses considerably less. I use my phone a lot. Tons of browsing, YouTube, ROM Manager, Pandora, LastFM, etc. but most of that is done over WiFi (because where I live 3G can sometimes be spotty and WiFi is just faster). As a result, I barely ever use over 1GB. My plan includes four phones (two are Droids), meaning I pay well over $200 each month to Verizon. If a tiered plan means I can save some money each month, I'm all for it.
Thats the issue now, I can't easily turn off off data currently.
I predicted Verizon would too, as soon as AT&T announced they were, I knew Verizon and others would follow. Its called Collusion, when the execs from all the big companies get together and take turns implementing new ways to screw the customers and make more $. Verizon took the heat for being first to raise the ETF so AT&T took the heat for being first to drop unlimited plans. Notice how each time the others followed and it was just a few months in between.
wouldnt you think verizon would stay unlimited data to keep more customers and welcome new ones? i mean me personally, id rather have a smart phone from a company that offers no data cap, maybe its just cause i use my phone alot (tethering, last.fm, browsing, youtube) IDK it just seems foolish for verizon to follow suit to the compitition
I am probably one of the few people that hope they go to tiered plans.
I consistently use between 500mb-700mb a month.
The reason tiered plans sounds good to me, is because I hope that they offer a <1gb plan that is much cheaper than what I am paying now. With that said, if the <1gb plan is the same cost as the unlimited plan that we have now, then that will be stupid...
Interesting article. Why Not Mobile Peak Data Hours Rather Than Data Caps?
Why Not Mobile Peak Data Hours Rather Than Data Caps? | Epicenter| Wired.com
you know it will be that they will pick a series of options that leave most of us just outside finding the lower plan useful. For example, ATT is like 200mb.. who uses 200mb? So, you have to go with the full pop plan in the end anyway.
So, I, like you, use around 700mb but I am sure they will pick plan cut offs that make unlimited the only way for most of us to go as 200-300 is just to little.
But fellow Amercans.....this is EXACTLY what capitalism is all about!! And if you don't love it...well then, you are a SOCIALIST/Democrat/liberal/Nazi/Big government kinda person, and Sistah Sara and Rush and Beck don't want you here.
So skeedadle with your pinko thoughts, and pay, and pay, and pay, and pay.......... of course, unless the deregulation of big corporations and the resultant collapse of our economy has left you jobless. Well then, you just need to go take on of them there fine minimum wage jobs.

Go to any merchant's site. They are all datafeed sites.
The sites in my signature are datafeed sites.

A site using datafeeds does not inherently have a certain "look". It's not datafeeds that appear on a site, it's the products.
How the site is programmed/designed is what determines what if will look like the site visitor sees a product display on the browser. The browser does not care whether the product data came from a datafeed or each product image and info was hard coded individually.
Best regards,
February 5th, 2010, 11:34 AM #4
The site in my sig file has a section using datafeeds, or a page, I should say. But like BurgerBoy and gato have said, there are all sorts of ways to use datafeeds and all sorts of ways to make them "look."Generate more fake news.
February 5th, 2010, 12:29 PM #5
A datafeed is a product catalog and what you do with that product catalog should be different than what anyone else would do with that same product catalog. An excellent thread with information on how to use datafeeds in a site is:

I got approval but can't access the FTP address due to my work computer. My home computer is down so I'll wait and see once I get my home computer back up and running. Thanks.

I got questions. I guess I'll ask them one at a time if ya'll don't mind (keeps me from getting confused). I got this datafeeds.shareasale.com location for my data feeds. First question is this a URL to be placed in the address bar or how do I access this location? Thanks.

Are you using a script to work with the datafeeds? If so, you may want to set up a cron job to import the feeds.

You need to learn how to work with datafeeds before you need ftp access to them. Just download the datafeeds to your computer as a zip until you know how to use them with a script. You will need to learn php and how to use MySQL or other database tools before you have any need to access feeds via ftp.
Spend your time reading through the many threads here that deal with database use, it takes some programming knowledge to set up a site to use datafeeds. WebMerge is a good starting point and they offer a free trial and a reduced price for SAS affs. If you're in a hurry, try PopShops or Goldencan to put products on your pages.
February 8th, 2010, 12:31 PM #13
If you don't use an FTP program you really shouldn't be asking for FTP access to the feeds. You cost merchants money when you do that, so they would appreciate it if only people that need it ask for it. If you go to any merchant that has a datafeed's links page you will see a link to their datafeed page and you can download that datafeed in a csv file right there. You *don't* need FTP access to get the feeds.
For example, log into Shareasale and click on this link:
http://www.shareasale.com/a-datafeed...rchantID=17498 (you can replace 17498 with the merchant ID of one of your own merchants)
And you will see a box with your merchant and all the way to the right is:
Datafeed Contains 2852 Products
View Products or Download .csv
And click where it says:
Please click here to download the file.
You will need to replace every occurrence of YOURUSERID in this file, with your actual ShareASale userID number, which is xxxxxx.
Your browser will probably ask you if you want to Open the file, or Save. Choose "Save", and save the file to your computer...from there you can open it in any program you wish.
Fields are separated by the "|" "Pipe" symbol, not by the comma.
Did you read any of the thread I sent you to earlier? It really is a good tutorial on what to do with datafeeds.Deborah Carney

Hi Dirt Hammer - most of the time, when an affiliate uses a datafeed, they import that data into a database to dynamically display on thier website. (to use in blogging applications, price comparison etc..)
There are also a few scripts out there that are easier to get started with. (GoldenCan and PopShops are 2 of them).
In addition, there are great FTP programs like SecureFx that are not too costly.
Good luck to you!Mary Joyce

I own these sites and use different affiliate datafeed tools to create them. One is obviously a WordPress plug in, the other is done with a cgi or perl program.

Here is a sample: www.webgourmand.com/wg/CyberCucina/CyberCucina.html.
Note that this is a work in progress; at this point, it is not "open to the public" and does not contain any affiliate links. If I end up finishing it, I may use it to display the CyberCucina products.
It's a sample of a possibility of what one can do with datafeeds. This one works with ColdFusion and Flex/ActionScript 3. If you are a good masochist, try working on something like this, especially if, like me, you are not a programmer.
If you browse to it, you may get one or two errors just dismiss them and it will work. I have not yet implemented the functionality for the Beverages, Fragrances tab nor for the shopping cart.

Shoulder pain can be very painful and frustrating, as it makes us unable to concentrate on anything. Stiff muscles are the main reason that promotes pain in your shoulder.
Any injury to the soft muscles, tissues and ligaments of the shoulder, neck or bicep injuries, strained muscles, bursitis, arthritis, bone spurs, torn cartilage, tendinitis, spinal cord injury, frozen shoulder or certain health problems will also contribute to shoulder pain.
Everyone will experience shoulder pain at some time in their life but people using laptops, smartphones or other electronic devices for a longer time will suffer more with this problem. Other than pain, we will experience swelling and difficulty in moving the shoulder along with tenderness around the affected joints.
Instead of using OTC pain relief balms or other medicines, why can't we opt for natural remedies that aid in relieving shoulder pain (especially for minor pains)? The Mother Nature has gifted so many natural medicines to treat various problems.
Home Remedies for Shoulder Pain:
Here are some of the best natural remedies that effectively treat your minor shoulder pain at home. Have a look at these remedies and try them regularly for few days to get rid of shoulder pain.
Remedy – 1: (Cold Compress)
A cold compress will help to alleviate your shoulder pain. This will numb the affected area and thus reduces the pain, irritation, and inflammation.
- Pour some ice cubes in a plastic bag and wrap it in a thin towel.
- Apply it on the affected shoulder and hold it for 10 – 15 minutes.
- Continue doing the same process for few times daily till you get relief from the shoulder pain.
- Or soak a clean towel in cold water and apply it on the painful shoulder.
- Avoid placing ice directly on the skin, as it causes frostbite and worsens the problem.
Remedy – 2: (Hot Compress)
Hot compress reduces the pain, swelling and inflammation of your shoulder but it has to be used after 48 hours of injury occurrence. It is effective in relieving the pain caused due to stress muscles.
- Apply a hot water bag after filling with hot water on the painful shoulder by lying down.
- Hold it on for about 10 – 15 minutes and repeat it few times daily.
Note: Or run warm water on your shoulder while showering for 5 – 10 minutes. Have this hot shower for twice daily.
Remedy – 3: (Massage)
Massage your shoulders to reduce stress, strain and pain. Also, a gentle massage will improve blood circulation and thus reduces swelling and stiffness. For best results, prefer warm oil massages like coconut, olive, mustard or sesame oil.
- Slightly warm the oil and apply it on your aching shoulders.
- Massage gently by applying light pressure for 10 – 15 minutes.
- This will encourage the proper blood flow and relieves your pain.
- Then place a warm towel on the affected area and wait for few minutes.
- Continue doing the massage therapy for few times daily till you get complete relief from the pain.
Note: It's not advisable to massage your injured area, as it causes pain and swelling.
Remedy – 4: (Turmeric)
Curcumin in turmeric exhibits antioxidant, antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties that reduce your swelling and aching on the shoulder.
- Mix 2 tablespoons of turmeric powder in 1 – 2 tablespoons of organic coconut oil to make a fine paste.
- Apply it on the aching shoulder and massage gently.
- Wait till it dry and wash it off with warm water.
- Repeat the same process for twice daily till you got relief from the pain.
- Or mix 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder in 1 cup of milk and boil it for few minutes. Drink it twice daily by adding honey to it.
- Consume 250 – 500 mg of turmeric capsules for 3 times daily but consult your doctor for proper dosage as per your health condition.
Remedy – 5: (Apple Cider Vinegar)
Apple cider vinegar (ACV) has alkalizing and anti-inflammatory properties that balance your pH level and reduces your pain and inflammation. It has all essential nutrients, enzymes, and acids which help to relieve your aching muscles.
- Mix 2 cups of raw, organic ACV in your bathtub filled with warm water.
- Soak in this warm water for about 20 – 30 minutes for once daily.
Note: Or mix 1 tablespoon of organic ACV and 1 teaspoon of raw honey in 1 glass of warm water. Stir well and drink it twice daily to get quick relief from the problem.
Remedy – 6: (Ginger)
Ginger warmth the body and improves blood circulation to heal shoulder pain. It has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that reduce pain, swelling and inflammation of your shoulder pain.
- Boil 1 tablespoon of thin ginger slices in 1 ½ – 2 cups of water for 7 – 10 minutes.
- Strain it and stir by adding honey to it.
- Drink this ginger tea for 2 – 3 times daily.
- Or consume ginger supplements by consulting your doctor.
- Also, replace ginger with alfalfa herb to get rid of the problem.
Tips and Precautions:
- If you didn't get any relief from this shoulder pain within few days (or) if your symptoms are worsening (or) suffering from chronic shoulder pain then it's time to consult your doctor immediately for proper diagnose and treatment.
- Apply constant pressure on the affected area (compression) will help to reduce the pain and swelling. Use an elastic bandage or a warm wrap along with elevating your shoulder with pillows will help to get rid of the problem but don't wrap it tightly.
- Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate) will improve blood circulation and relax your shoulder muscles by relieving stress. Take Epsom salt baths for 3 times a week by simply stirring 2 cups of Epsom salt in the bathtub filled with warm water. Soak in it for 20 – 25 minutes.
- Soaking in water by adding few drops of lavender oil will help to relax your tired muscles. Also, mix few drops of lavender oil in olive oil and massage the aching shoulder to get rid of the pain.
- Give proper rest to the affected areas and also elevate the shoulder by using a few pillows to reduce the pain and swelling.
- Always try to maintain good posture which helps to heal your shoulder pain quickly and also not to get this problem again.
- Try some simple stretching exercises, acupressure or acupuncture to get rid of the problem.
- Drink a glass of warm lemon water by adding honey in it to get rid of mineral deposits in the joints (arthritis) which in turn reduces the pain in the shoulder and other body parts.
- Avoid smoking and drinking alcohol which may slow down your healing process.
- Capsaicin has pain relieving property, so apply any gel that has 0.0125% capsaicin topically on the affected area to reduce the pain.
- Also, drink plenty of water, consume a healthy diet, include certain foods (like black sesame seeds, garlic, ginger or pepper), etc. as a part of your daily diet.
Try these natural remedies for treating your shoulder pain. Do you know any other remedies? Then share it with us.

When you know some of the examples you produce will forever live in some of the scorching parts of the planet you go out of your way to make sure everything is in order – especially when your last name is Bugatti and the first is Chiron.
If you're in the business of producing an object of desire and adulation for the entire planet – no we're not talking about the sexiest women on the planet – we're discussing here an ultra expensive hypercar like the incredible Chiron – you're going to make sure everything is up to snuff. This means the extremes of the planet – such as extremely cold or hot temperatures – need to be something that doesn't leave a mark even after thousand of test miles. Today we're interested in the hot part of the equation – since some of us here on the Blue Planet are taking up the winter months.
Bugatti has decided to showcase some of the trials and tribulations of hot weather environment testing, with the short video depicting the efforts needed to review their prowess. During five weeks, Bugatti test engineers took four Chiron test cars across the United States's hottest desert regions – 35,000 kilometers of tarmac that was baking under a hot summer sun. Temperatures rose back then to almost 125 degrees F (51 degrees C) outside the car. The trip took them to Los Angeles, north to Sacramento, over to Yosemite Park and then down into Death Valley, as well as Phoenix, Arizona. The next to Monument Valley before finally finishing the testing in Denver, Colorado.

Claddagh Rings from Galway
Claddagh comes from the Irish word "Cladach" meaning "the stony beach". It is an area close to the centre of Galway city.
It was formerly a fishing village, just outside the old city walls but now it is part of the city centre, situated just across the river Corrib from the Spanish Arch. The Claddagh village has now disappeared; the original village consisted of thatched cottages which unfortunately no longer exist. Historically it also had a largely Irish-speaking population. It was one of the oldest former fishing villages in Ireland and a highly self-contained community, where for centuries people used to fish and sell their seafood. There was an elected 'King' who controlled their activities and the fishing fleet. He alone was allowed to use white sails on his hooker, and he had the rare distinction of flying a flag. So far as we know, it has not been possible to find out what devices appeared on the this flag, but it would not be too fanciful to hope that it was some form of joined hands supporting a crowned heart.
The area is still one of the most popular places in both the city and county of Galway. The popularity of the Claddagh ring means the area will never be forgotten. It was from here the famous ring got its name. Richard Joyce was a Galway man but why this quaint village should be held to have almost proprietary interest in the rings, we will not know as they were worn the whole way across Galway County, though they were more popular here then elsewhere in the county.
Today, if you visit Galway City, the chances are you will definitely be taking a walk down to the Claddagh. The area is a major draw for tourists. From the beautiful views of the river Corrib out to the sea, the swans that have made their home in the river, the small but beautiful church that is a hugely popular wedding location, the views across the river to the Spanish Arch and it's colourful houses along the river mouth. There is always a brilliant atmosphere in the area. During the summer months, there is usually some sort of activity taking place in the area, whether its water sports in the canal, a festival or just people relaxing and enjoying the scenery. But if you want to avoid the summertime crowds then visit in winter, believe me the winter scenery is worth braving the cold for, especially on a snowy or frosty morning. And don't forget your camera!
