Simple Style with a Scarf

As a WAHM/SAHM (work-at-home mom/stay-at-home mom), it's easy to default to pajamas or sweats as my daily "uniform," but that tends to set a tone of "laziness" around here, so I've been keeping my eyes on Pinterest, searching for casual SAHM outfit ideas for fall, and then shopping my closet,… Read More »

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama announced in May 2013 that no lethal strike against a terrorist would be authorized without "near-certainty that no civilians will be killed or injured."
But amid unconfirmed reports of civilian casualties, the White House said this week that U.S. bombing in Iraq and Syria is not being held to the near-certainty standard. And the Pentagon, hamstrung by limitations in intelligence gathering, has been unable to determine in many cases whether the casualty reports are true. Continue reading
WASHINGTON — The Federal Aviation Administration is expected to announce Thursday that it is granting permits to seven movie and television production companies to fly drones, an important step toward greater use of the technology by commercial operators, said attorneys and a company official familiar with the decision.
Continue reading
The FAA has been working on regulations that would permit commercial drone flights in U.S. skies for more than 10 years, but the agency is still at least months and possibly years away from issuing final rules to permit flights by small drones. Regulations for flights by larger drones are even farther away. Continue reading

The U.S. is now flying armed drones over Baghdad to protect U.S. civilians and military forces in the Iraqi capital, the Pentagon confirmed. Also, Human Rights Watch released a report alleging that ISIL conducted mass executions of more than 160 men in Tikrit. Lindsey Hilsum of Independent Television News reports from Baghdad on the growing unease among civilians. Continue reading
WASHINGTON — The U.S. has armed drones flying over Baghdad to protect U.S. troops that recently arrived to assess Iraq's deteriorating security, the Pentagon said Friday.
The military for more than a week has been flying manned and unmanned aircraft over Iraq, averaging a few dozen sorties daily for reconnaissance. The decision to arm some of the drones follows the deployment to Baghdad of troops who will advise and assist Iraqi counterterrorism forces. Continue reading

Shortly after turning on Waterchase Boulevard, drivers are met by the Waterchase community's large white clubhouse. Inside, certified personal trainer Ryan Anthony draws from specialized training in interval fitness regimens, fat loss, and lean-muscle gain to push residents and nonresidents alike into sleek, muscular shape. The gym and fitness studio hosts personal-training sessions and group classes such as boot camp. Outside, exercisers can access a swimming pool, tennis and basketball courts, and an open field that is perfect for sports and mowing.

CSA Palm Harbor keeps its neighborhood moving. As the managing body of parks, recreation, and leisure services for the unincorporated community of Palm Harbor, the outfit takes charge by providing affordable, high-quality facilities and programs. CSA Palm Harbor manages three multi-sport complexes and a full-service community activity center. Outside those doors, though, their efforts ripple through the community. They include a municipal kayak launch, a waterside park, fitness workshops, 5K fun runs, and camps for kids who don't want to spend their summer memorizing yearbook messages.
This annual 5K run winds through Genesis Preparatory School's campus?varied terrain that encompasses hills, pine-covered flatwoods, and, of course, gallons of mud. Racers slog through it, and navigate a sprinkling of obstacles, too, but it's worth it at the finish line. Afterwards, participants can enjoy live music and enough food to ensure that no one has to refuel by running the race backward.
When Roald Dahl wrote Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, he imagined a much-coveted golden ticket that granted access to myriad wonders and unveiled the inner workings of an entire industry. Adele Fridman, founder of MetaBody, created a real-life version of that ticket with her MetaBody Yoga & Fitness Pass, though it applies to fitness instead of candy. The pass grants access not to a single gym but to classes at a variety of local studios, specializing in everything from yoga to boot camp. With the freedom to move from location to location, students can sample different regimens, instructors, and styles of exercise to cobble together a program that fits their needs and goals. MetaBody's nutritionists supplement class packages by coaching clients in healthy eating, recipe cooking, and speed-reading nutrition-fact labels.

In addition to techniques and plays, the camp focuses on fitness and conditioning. EBS Basketball Clinic also offers one-on-one training for youngsters who can only dunk Oreos into milk.

Opioids modify sensory experience at many levels in the CNS. The mechanisms of this action, including the ways opioid receptors affect synaptic transmission, are not yet fully understood. Here we show that the selective activation of mu-opioid receptors suppressed inhibitory transmission between spinal cord dorsal horn neurons in vitro. mu-Opioid receptor activation reduced evoked inhibitory postsynaptic current (eIPSC) amplitude by acting presynaptically, because it altered the paired-pulse ratio, did not affect GABA-evoked currents, and decreased miniature IPSC (mIPSC) frequency. The mechanism of this effect was independent both of presynaptic Ca(2+) entry and of the pathway linking presynaptic kainate (KA) receptors to suppression of inhibitory transmission in the same cells. These data identify mu-opioid receptors as important presynaptic modulators of dorsal horn inhibitory transmission.

Are there any open positions remaining – what is happening with these?
The special administrators are not aware of any open positions on exchanges save for a small number of client positions held through the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. The special administrators or MFG UK have been in contact with the small number of clients with open positions during the course of 29 November 2011.
What has happened to my transfer request?
Where it has been possible to transfer your trade/position to another broker, your new broker should confirm the transfer with you.
What is the status of the transfer request I submitted prior to the expiration of the deadline set by the relevant exchange or clearing house?
The transfer request process is outside of the control of the special administrators. If you have submitted a timely transfer request, please consult with your nominated alternative broker to confirm whether your transfer has been processed.
Has my trade(s)/position(s) been liquidated?
If you have not been contacted separately by the special administrators or if your positions have not transferred, your positions will have been liquidated. Please refer to the www.kpmg.co.uk/mfglobaluk website for a list of exchanges and clearing houses that have notified MFG UK that it has defaulted under the exchange's or clearing house's rules and have liquidated MFG UK's open trades/positions. When an exchange or clearing house has liquidated MFG UK's open trades/positions, corresponding client trade(s)/position(s) were automatically liquidated.
What was the liquidation price when my position was closed out (by the exchange)? When will I receive a statement?
Please refer to the letter to all clients dated 23 November 2011. We are working towards providing statements as quickly as practicable.
Statement information since the special administrators' appointment
Certain trade and/or position, price and cash balance data provided to clients since 31 October 2011 is not necessarily reliable (for example because information was not up to date or complete at that time) and you should not rely on it. More accurate closing prices and statements of final trades and/or positions will be sent to clients in due course.

Leslie leaves DreamWorks Animation
Chief financial officer tooning out
By Ben Fritz
December 18, 2006
http://www.variety.com/article/VR111...goryid=-1&cs=1DreamWorks Animation chief financial officer Kris Leslie ankled Friday after more than 10 years with the studio.
She joined DreamWorks Studios as CFO in 1996, soon after its founding. In 2004, Leslie helped take the animation division public. Most recently, she helped forge DWA's distribution pact with Paramount after it bought DreamWorks Studios.
"I am grateful for the guidance and support she has provided, from the early stages of creating DreamWorks through our transition into a public company and to a new distribution partner," CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg said in a statement.
Leslie will stay through February to help DreamWorks Animation finish its 2006 accounting. Company will search for a replacement. DWA stock seemed unaffected by the news, closing down 1% at $28.33 Friday.

Much more impressive than the musical content on this debut release from this Atlanta-based, California-raised duo, is the depth in which their title and name derivatives define their hip-hop space. It's critical to be aware of them before you allow yourself to be moved by this CD. Whether or not you're swept off your feet, it's not going to damage the group's self-confidence or high-esteem about themselves, thus their name: Micranots (negates smallness). Pretty self-explanatory right? Wait 'til you attempt at figuring out the album's title, a task very much like deciphering the lyrics emcee I Self Devine uses over the production from his partner, DJ Kool Akiem.
You may have remembered lead singles "Pitch Black Ark" b/w "Exodus" alongside the fifteen or so additional songs on the album. Listening to the tracks that DJ Kool Akiem produces scares you away from the lyrical content of what I Self Devine might be attempting to explain. In some cases, you're better off supporting the beats of your unsigned next-door neighbor basement productions. This shouldn't surprise you if you're familiar with the above mentioned singles from 2000. Unfortunately, there's more unsophisticated use of the MPC-3000 on "Preparations", "Balance" and "Sun Salutations," plus more burdensome stiffly sampled sound-textures and tasteless loops from absolutely the wrong crate of records, as evidenced by "Culture" and "The Willie Lynch". If musically or melodically they try to achieve anything, it's ironically on the lounge-felt instrumental "Monuments", and "Queen Supreme" leaving endings for the swift moving scratches of Kool Akiem to devour. Lyrically, "Illegal Busyness" is worth bumping from start to finish, as I Self Devine exposes a roll call of America's drugs, touching on names of substances you are guaranteed to fail at properly pronouncing. The driving choppy groove glazed with pieces of horns stomping alongside the beat carries this song into a higher realm over the other poor offerings. Speaking of that higher level, add "Mother's Day" into your shopping cart for enjoyment. His ode to his own, Devine masterfully pours his heart onto this track, making sure every emotion and thoughtful praise is transmitted correctly, for mother's sake.
So what's that album title mean then? Well, Micranots not only expose on every track, the fact that hip-hop culture is dying, a reflection of the similar historical trends where Europeans stole African art from ancient Egypt, thus the Obelisk reference. But conveniently, Micronots create a double meaning: the turntable's needle has the symbolic shape of an inverted obelisk and by its movement, of course triggered by the spinning of the record beneath, you should be compelled to feel their sound vibrations. Are you with me? Ok, supposedly you got through all that depth of their meanings; simply appreciating the record is even more difficult. In a nutshell, few tracks move you and that's because of the absence of soul, probably stolen from right within their studio.

Baby born on Ga. freeway during wintry traffic jam
While snow and ice brought commuters to a halt Tuesday, one baby girl decided she just could not wait.
Police in suburban Atlanta say they helped deliver a baby girl on a local freeway when snow and ice brought traffic to a crawl.
Sandy Springs Police Capt. Steve Rose says the baby girl was delivered around 5:20 p.m. Tuesday and it's unclear if her parents were headed to the hospital when they got stuck in the traffic jam.
Traffic came to a halt in some areas as many ended their workdays early and tried navigating slippery highways throughout the region.
Rose called the delivery "flawless" and said it happened without any complications.
Rose says an ambulance arrived just after the baby was delivered and the girl was taken to a local hospital. The parents' identities have not been released and it's unclear which hospital the girl was taken to.

We learn more about wine every day. And I mean that in both the immediate and the global sense of things. I know I am learning more about wine every day, but increasingly the scientific community is also delving into the mysteries of wine. Here's a recent study which, though poorly reported on in this article, sounds really interesting. Scientists have started to understand the correlations between metal content in the soil, the resulting biochemistry of the grapes grown in it, and the subsequent color extraction that is possible in the wine. What's most interesting to me about this study is that instead of being about certain metals leading to deep colors, these scientists have actually correlated certain metals with certain hues in the resulting wine. In particular, they found a correllation between a higher content of iron in the seeds of the grape, and the more bluish tones of the resulting wine. If the article were written a bit better I might be able to understand more of what they were measuring, but the notion is enticing.
As a chemist, I don't find this nearly as surprising as a non-chemist would. A lot of natural colors are due to transition metals. Specifically these colors represent transitions in electronic energy levels. As you might suspect, the exact color of metals in solution depends on a lot of factors including the type(s) of metals, their oxidation states, and what kinds of ligands (sets of atoms bound to the metal) they have.
From a scientific perspective, the real discovery of the study was to provide an equation that objectively gives clues to wine quality. They also seem to have demonstrated that when a red wine isn't as red as expected/desired, it may be due to a high iron content (which makes sense since Fe2+ is blue in basic conditions).
I can't tell you much more about it without the actual article.

RY Turns 25
It's been 25 years! Whew!
When we first started out in 1989, we were called Auckland Gay and Lesbian Youth – ALGY for short. We were a wee group of young people who wanted to make a difference to the lives of those struggling with their sexuality or gender identity. After 25 years… that still pretty much sums us up!
We've come a long way, carried on the backs of some amazing past staff, volunteers and members. We'd like to extend a huge, fuzzy, glittery, rainbow coloured THANK YOU to anyone who has ever lent their time or their money to help us get where we are today.
Today, we are a team of 10 volunteer board members, 5 staff members, 6 casual educators and a dedicated bunch of interns, facilitators and volunteers. Our drop-in centre on K'Rd is open weekdays from 11AM – 5PM. Our drop-in centre not only is home to our peer-support groups, but also host the likes of Friends of Friends, Genderbridge and Holding Our Own. And! Speaking of our peer support groups, we have a total of 7 running around Auckland, Whangarei and Tauranga. We also run education programmes in high schools all around Auckland – with our team of educators delivering the workshops to more students than ever before. Under our project called I'm Local we've sent resources galore all around Northland, Waikato and Bay of Plenty – with more places to come.
Tonight, we'll be gathering with some key past and present members of RY and the extended RY whānau to celebrate our birthday. We'll be launching our brand new app, and previewing our swanky new website (so watch this space!).
While we celebrate the past, we're also looking to the future and trying to find new ways to make Aotearoa a safe place for all queer & trans* youth. We've come 25 years, but we want to stick around for 25 more.
That's where you come in!
Follow our birthday proceedings on our Facebook, Twitter or Instagram and hashtag your support: #25years25more.
And if you're feeling generous, popping over to the donate part of our website and leaving us a little (or big?) birthday pressie would be more than appreciated! Facebook, Tweet or Instagram your donation and we'll make sure to include you in our celebrations tonight!
Our New Resources Are Here
If you haven't heard of our I'm Local Project yet, you should check it out!
With the generosity of the U.S Embassy, the Waitematā Local Board and the ANZ Staff Foundation, the project is in full swing, getting free queer & trans* resources out to community organisations nationwide.
With the trial phase of the project going down a treat in high schools, medical centres, libraries and community centres around Northland, we're moving on to the next phase of the project – and have whole bunch of awesome Queer & Trans* 101 comics (created in collaboration with the wonderful Sam Orchard) ready to go to the Waikato Region and beyond!
If you know of an organisation that would be interested in getting their hands on these babies plus some matching posters – let them and us know! Email: email@example.com
RainbowYOUTH TEAMS UP WITH ASB
In a move that highlights ASB's commitment to supporting LGBTIQ (queer & trans*) youth, RainbowYOUTH has been added to ASB's True Rewards programme.
ASB True Rewards customers receive True Rewards dollars when they use their ASB credit cards. These can then be redeemed in a variety of ways including at participating stores, or donated to a select list of charities on their website.
RainbowYOUTH joins an impressive list of charities supported by ASB, including St Johns, CanTeen and the SPCA.
RainbowYOUTH's General Manager, Duncan Matthews, says: "I'm thrilled with the commitment ASB is showing to supporting the queer and trans* communities, by forming their Unity staff network, being awarded the Rainbow Tick, and now including our community organisation as one of the charities they support.
The money donated through ASB's True Rewards will be a great help in RY's aim to support queer & trans* youth around New Zealand. It will go towards helping keep RY's drop-in centre up and running, supplying RY's resources to other community organisations and ensuring the continued running of RY's core services (such as the education programme).
Being added to the True Rewards programme is just the first step in an exciting ongoing relationship between RainbowYOUTH and ASB – with further collaboration planned for early next year.
"ASB has really come onboard, wanting to support us and our initiatives. They've already offered resource, guidance and opportunities to work together for the benefit of RainbowYOUTH, ASB's Unity Network, and wider community members" says Matthews.
ASB credit card holders who are part of the True Rewards programme can use their True Rewards dollars to donate to RY by visiting the Charity Donation section of the True Rewards website.
RainbowYOUTH Grant Writing and Sponsorship Workshop
Our Fundraising Coordinator Paul is running a free 3 hour workshop that looks at writing applications to the JAPHA fund (a monthly grant of up to $1,000 to Aucklanders who have small and creative projects that will achieve social or environmental good).
Attendees will learn how to:
- Find out how to get funding for a cool project you have in mind (it can be pretty much anything!)
- Learn how to write successful grants and cover letters for employment, scholarships, course applications and other opportunities (so many useful adult skills!)
- Brainstorm projects to help the queer and trans* community in NZ (being a good person is always fun.)
- Learn about a new opportunity to apply for $1,000 funding for a personal community project (the JAPHA fund that comes around every month!)
WHEN: Saturday, 6th September – 2PM – 5PM
WHERE: The RY Drop-in Centre (281 Karangahape Road)
ALSO: Free snacks!
Those interested should RSVP to Paul by emailing: firstname.lastname@example.com

We left Pensacola on Saturday morning on a beautiful day. It was also a beautiful day for a 5K fun run and we ran into McGuires 5K. We could have risked a detour but we saw a motorhome have to do a U-turn Sunday evening because there was a low bridge that was in the way.
So we watched the race and enjoyed the 40 minute delay. It was fine.
Then we moved on to the Air Force FamCamp that is right across from the main gate at Hurlburt Field. It has no reservation system and one gets a spot on a first-come basis. We arrived about 10:30 and had a hard time finding a spot. The campground is run down and not well taken care of. A new one is being built but will not be open until June.
The supervisor from the Services Flight (who runs the campground) saw us looking for a spot and offered to move a temporary trailer off a campsite for us to use.
It worked great and we were very appreciative. He could have just said 'We're Full'. Instead he took another drive around the park then had two guys come over and hook up the trailer and move it to another place. I took his card and send a note to his commander. That is customer service!
We wanted to be near Hurlburt for a couple of reasons. We were married her in 1979 and spent a couple of great years in Fort Walton Beach. We also wanted to get the Roadrunner into the Freightliner shop at Fleet Maintenance in FWB. We had a 7:00 a.m. appointment on Monday.
We were there on time at Fleet Maintenance and asked them to check out the "Low Voltage" light that has been coming on after we are parked for a while. We dropped off the coach, then went over to Panera Bread for coffee.
I was able to check into work for an hour then we went back over to the garage. They had a commercial vehicle come in and we got pushed back. They didn't even start checking things out until about 11:00.
The batteries were fine but they questioned if they were all hooked up correctly. We got a residential refrigerator installed 18 months ago by Brannon Hutcheson at Custom RV near Red Bay. I called him and left a message. He called back in about five minutes and discussed things with the mechanics.
Then we sent him some photos. They determined it was a bad solenoid, not faulty hookups.
We made a rookie error in moving on the weekend. We could have stayed in Pensacola a few more days. But we made an appointment at the Freightliner place for Monday a.m. We could have made it for Tuesday.
Then we stayed at a place where we could lose our spot when we moved over to the repair facility. Our other option was that we could have stayed at the repair facility with power but no water or sewer. So we opted to make the reservation at Destin.
That's it for this edition of the Roadrunner Chronicles! Please join us again...

As the baseball postseason swings ever closer to the World Series (fyi: the Fall Classic begins this coming Saturday), I thought I'd get us all in the mood by looking at some curious connections between the sport and, of all things, the number 3, which, besides being the first unique prime number, turns out really is a magic number, as well.

Final Score: Tampa Bay 4, San Diego 2
St. Petersburg, FL (Sports Network) - Yunel Escobar doubled home the go-ahead
run in the sixth inning as the Tampa Bay Rays edged the San Diego Padres, 4-2,
to complete a three-game sweep at Tropicana Field.
Evan Longoria opened the sixth with a double to center field, then moved to
third on James Loney's fly ball to right. Sean Rodriguez followed with a base
hit to center to score Longoria.
Reliever Brad Brach, who replaced starter Eric Stults (3-3), threw a wild
pitch to allow Rodriguez to move to second. The miscue proved to be costly as
Escobar smashed a double to right field to push Rodriguez across.
Loney added a solo homer in the eighth to account for the final difference.
Loney finished the game with two hits and Jose Molina added an RBI for the
Rays, who have won five straight.
Roberto Hernandez (2-4) gave up two runs on five hits over six innings and
Fernando Rodney stranded a runner in the ninth to earn his sixth save of the
"The pitching is starting to look like it's supposed to and while all that's
happening, let's maintain this offensive production and see where it takes
us," Rays manager Joe Maddon said.
Alexi Amarista homered and Yonder Alonso had two hits and an RBI for the
Padres, who were swept for the fourth time this season. Stults gave up three
runs on five hits and five walks over 5 1/3 innings to absorb the loss.
"Three, well-played, close games that didn't go our way," Padres manager Bud
Black said of his team being swept.
With the bases loaded in the second inning, Molina lifted a towering sacrifice
fly to right field to score Longoria.
The Padres evened the score in the fourth as Alonso ripped a base hit up the
middle to score Chase Headley, and Amarista added his solo shot in the fifth
to put San Diego in front 2-1.
Game Notes
Tampa Bay leads the majors with 39 homers since April 15 ... The Rays (19-18)
are above .500 for the first time since April 6 when they were 3-2 ... Tampa
Bay was 2-for-11 with runners in scoring position ... The Padres are 6-12 on
the road this season ... Padres right fielder Will Venable extended his
hitting streak to six games.

Halloween begins early at Universal Orlando
All things spooky and scary are coming to life at Universal Orlando.
Halloween Horror Nights is underway and offering everything from hundreds of zombies to a house full of werewolves.
One of haunted houses is called Cabin in the Woods.
"This house is insane. It's insane. The diversity of the characters we have in this maze is unreal," Halloween Horror Nights Creative Director Mike Aiello said.
Zombies threaten to attack Leon and Jill in the Resident Evil maze, which is inspired by the popular game.
Designers, technicians and directors have worked a year to bring eight mazes, scare zones and two shows to life. The goal is to terrify people in new ways.
"It's base human emotion. It's like happiness and joy. Being terrified is fun," Universal Orlando Senior Vice President of Entertainment Jim Timon said.
The iconic 1981 horror film "An American Werewolf in London" is recreated in detail. It's a secret how producers turn a man into a wolf.
"It's a very scary and kind of thrilling and fun maze, and I'm pretty happy with it," said John Landis, director of "An American Werewolf in London."
Halloween Horror Nights runs at Universal Orlando through Nov. 2.

Michael Joyce is a professor of English at Vassar College, NY, USA. His work afternoon: a story, 1987, was among the first works of hypertext fiction. The New York Times called Michael Joyce's afternoon "the granddaddy of hypertext fictions," while The Toronto Globe and Mail said that it "is to the hypertext interactive novel what the Gutenberg bible is to publishing," and Der TAZ in Berlin termed him "Der Homer der Hypertexte." afternoon has been translated into Italian, German, Polish, and French.
TLP: Your work afternoon, a story (1990) marks you as one of the early pioneer of electronic writing/ storytelling, can you tell us a bit about your work, what inspired it and what you were trying to achieve with projects such as afternoon?
MJ: I fear I've too often told the story of the writing of afternoon in 1987 (not 1990), which I actually began writing in late 1986 and distributed at the first ACM Hypertext meeting in 1987 at Chapel Hill NC where Jay Bolter and I also presented a paper "Hypertext and Creative Writing." Your date of 1990 marks when it was published by Eastgate but by then it had been widely distributed and written about (and at least one dissertation about it, by Jane Yellowless Douglas, was underway). Suffice it to say that Jay and I had met through the Yale Artificial Intelligence Lab where we each were visiting fellows albeit in successive years, each interested in new ways of storytelling, but neither of us, or much of the world, having heard the word hypertext (which, coincidentally, Ted Nelson first was quoted as using, albeit hyphenated, in print here at Vassar in 1965. Interested readers looking for the full genealogy can read my chapter, "What I Really Wanted to Do I Thought" in Of Two Minds (University of Michigan, 1995 or, better still, Belinda Barnet's wonderful Memory Machines: The Evolution Of Hypertext (Anthem, 2003). There to Belinda I summarized our early work on Storyspace and my work on afternoon by saying "I wanted, quite simply, to write a novel that would change in successive readings and to make those changing versions according to the connections that I had for some time naturally discovered in the process of writing and that I wanted my readers to share."

There's no doubt that readers have strong opinions about books. We see them expressed every day in Amazon reviews, in book clubs and a plethora of blogs. After giving up many hours of our time to a book, after investing emotionally in its characters or rationally in its arguments, it's not surprising we have a lot to say. The question is, should the author ever listen?
When Ian Fleming received a letter from a reader politely suggesting his fictional hero be issued with a rather more powerful firearm, he took the advice and gave James Bond a Walther PPK. But he had to live with the fact that Bond, in his first five novels, had trusted his life to "a lady's gun," as his correspondent Geoffrey Boothroyd described the .25 Beretta. With the technology of the day – printed books and typewritten letters – reader feedback was slow in coming.
By contrast, several small factual errors in my latest novel, Rogue Elements, have already been corrected by sharp-eyed readers, long before the book is printed. I referred to a "private" in the Coldstream Guards; it turns out the junior rank is "guardsman". I placed the top brass of MI6 on the fourth floor of the Vauxhall Cross headquarters – it should be the sixth. And although I undertook an exhaustive research trip to Lourdes, my description of the bathing procedure has now been substantially enhanced thanks to a Catholic pilgrim with far greater experience of the town's miraculous waters.
