Freeport Players' Guild holds annual TWIRP Ball and 50th anniversary celebration - A night of memories, music and milestones |
Tuesday, 21 February 2012 09:47 |
FREEPORT, Grand Bahama -- Celebrating 50 years of the Freeport Players' Guild and 40 years of the Regency Theatre, it was an event to remember on Saturday, February 4th. The night of memories, music and milestones began with a lovely spread of hors d'oeuvres in the beautifully decorated new lobby with programmes from past shows hanging from the ceiling attached to gold and ruby balloons. Guests were then taken into the Peter Aston Auditorium where they were treated to a fabulous show that started with a surprise tribute to Lois Seiler with the opening number "One Singular Sensation." The number was also choreographed by this unstoppable legend of the Guild who's choreographed countless shows on that very stage. The night continued with welcome remarks from hosts Kirk Antoni and Ivy Elden who reminded us of the theatre group's humble beginnings in the Seacraft Building off the Fishing Hole Road with its tin roof and metal chairs. They also reenacted how actors would have to freeze or adlib as airplanes would fly over in the middle of a show. Awards were then presented by makeup artist extraordinaire Margo Miller and the segmented documentary delighted and enlightened audience members. The evening featured show medleys from My Fair Lady, The Wiz, Jesus Christ Superstar, Joseph, Oliver!, Annie, Grease, Guys & Dolls, That's Chicago, Dreamgirls, and Ain't Misbehavin'. Other presenters of the night included makeup artist, Tiffany Dennison, Past President, Olivia Dorsett, Lifetime members, Rose Carson, Kay Hardy, and Andrea Gottlieb and Patty Aston, who presented the Peter Aston Award for Best Director in a Musical. The documentary, produced by Keen i Media Ltd, was well received and enjoyed by all and will be available shortly on DVD for sale. It featured the early days, memorable shows, the many faces and faceslifts of the theatre and the future of the Guild. A full length extended version will be shown in the Regency Theatre auditorium in the coming months. For more photos from the evening visit click HERE to visit the Facebook page. (Photos by Keen i Media Ltd.) The Freeport Players' Guild extends a special thanks to everyone who helped in any way shape or form with the documentary by providing footage, interviews, programmes, photos and newspaper clippings including Sir Jack Hayward, Andrea Gottlieb, Kay Hardy, Ivy Elden, Sue Lynne McCrea, Angela Hackman, Paula Fingland, Patty Aston, Cath Hindley, Vilma Dann, Katybel Taylor, Leona Roach, Paulette Russell, Ashley Mordas, Chris Child, Keen i Media Ltd: Kyle Redman-Carroll, Olivia Dorsett and Erik J Russell, and The Freeport News.

With so many coastlines and so many beautiful panoramic vistas, the visitor to Newfoundland and Labrador has a very good problem: where can one find the best sunrise and sunset? This question will elicit as many answers as there are islands to rise over and inlets to set down in. That said, it is really hard to beat the sunrise over Placentia Bay and the sunset across Fortune Bay.
The fall is a great time of year for hiking in Newfoundland & Labrador. From breathing in the crisp fall air to enjoying the bright yellow, red, and orange colours to picking berries along the coastline, it's no wonder the fall hike is a favourite for many. To help get you underway, we've pulled together a list of 5 great fall hikes in Newfoundland & Labrador.
Thinking of going for a day hike on one of Newfoundland & Labrador's 200 hiking and walking trails? Before you do, check out this list of hikers' tips and checklist items to help you prepare for your trip.

Newfoundland and Labrador has a wealth of great hiking trails, some of the best in the world. There's something special about the trails that head to the top of a hill. They provide a definite sense of accomplishment, even on the most modest ascents, and they will supply spectacular views of the surrounding towns and landscapes. This isn't an exhaustive list, but these are four of our favourites in Eastern Newfoundland. And they may not be Mount Everest, but they'll make you feel like you're on top of the world!

Have you ever felt the rush before boarding a ship for an adventure into Canada's North?
The Northern Ranger ferry service links the small, remote communities of Nunatsiavut during the summer months with a 5-day return trip: Happy Valley-Goose Bay to Nain. This return trip affords you a rare opportunity to learn the history and culture of this region and the Labrador Inuit lifestyle. During each community visit you will witness how vibrant traditions and culture resonate within modern communities; all under the backdrop of a wild and majestic sub-arctic Labrador environment that profoundly contrasts with the island of Newfoundland.

A local couple explored every kilometre of the East Coast Trail. All 265 of them. Living in Portugal Cove, they had convenient access to the East Coast Trail -- but never lost their entusiasm and sense of awe as they travelled in just past their own backyard.

On Saturday, September 28 we headed for Woody Point to continue our quest to hike the trails that exist in some of the communities in Gros Morne National Park. In previous blogs we have discussed the community trails in Norris Point and Rocky Harbour and for this weekend we set our sites on some communities on the south side of the park. And the weather couldn't have been better- sunny and warm.

A bus dropped us off at the side of the road where a small flag, set beside a narrow path that led into the forest, indicated the start of the trail. It was not a simple walking trail, there were some difficult parts, but it was beautiful. Halfway along the trail there was a lookout. I felt as though I was standing on top of the forest. All I could see were the tops of trees stretching out toward the open ocean in the distance. As I stood there catching my breath and taking in the beauty, I could almost have believed I was the only person on the planet....this is the chef hike at The Gathering Festival in Burlington Newfoundland
People often ask me, "what are the must-dos in Newfoundland & Labrador?". In a province as vast and unique as this, you can imagine that it is not an easy question to answer. However, after a little bit of thought and deliberation, I have put together my own Top 10 list of the things every traveller should do on their vacation to Newfoundland & Labrador.

A place inhabited by unique and fascinating people is bound to attract folks with a similar penchant for individuality. Folks like Bernie and his mule Polly.

WASHINGTON (Army News Service, June 23, 2009) -- Beginning June 29, Soldiers can go online and elect to transfer their Post-9/11 G.I. Bill benefits to their spouse or children.
Rules for transferring educational benefits under the "Post-9/11 Veteran's Education Assistance Act Of 2008," sometimes called the "Post-9/11 G.I. Bill," were spelled out June 23 by Bob Clark, the Department of Defense's assistant director for accession policy and military personnel policy.
According to Clark, Soldiers will be able to transfer benefits to dependents only if they are active or Select Reserve on Aug. 1. The benefit cannot be transferred by those serving in the Individual Ready Reserve, who are retired, or who are separated on that date.
Additionally, under the transferability rules, a Soldier must have served six years and must commit to serve an additional four years.
Soldiers can elect to transfer benefits to family members beginning June 29, through the Transferability of Educational Benefits Web site at  https://www.dmdc.osd.mil/TEB.
After Soldiers make those elections, the Army will verify and approve the election and assign the four-year commitment, if required. Following that approval, a Soldier's family member can then apply for benefits through the Veterans Administration Web site.
According to Clark, it is recommended that Soldiers add all family members as potential beneficiaries of their Post-9/11 G.I. Bill benefits. Once a Soldier has retired or separated from the Army, they can no longer add new family members as potential beneficiaries.
Under the Post-9/11 G.I. Bill, thousands of qualified Soldiers or family members of qualifying Soldiers will have the opportunity to go to college at no cost to them.
Soldiers, Army veterans, and family members of qualifying Soldiers can begin using benefits under the Post-9/11 G.I. Bill beginning Aug. 1. Benefits from the program can be paid out for a total of 36 months. Under a typical degree program, where students attend school for nine months at a time and are then off during the summer months, the plan could allow veterans to get a four-year degree while attending school in residence.
With the Post-9/11 G.I. Bill, tuition payments are sent directly to the school. Additional payments for books and supplies go directly to students.
Tuition is not the only benefit extended to potential college-goers. For students attending school more than half the time, the Post-9/11 G.I. Bill also pays housing costs, up to a rate equivalent to the Basic Allowance for Housing rate for an E-5 with dependents in the ZIP code where the school is located.
Students are also entitled to a yearly stipend of up to $1,000 to cover the cost of books and supplies, and students from highly rural areas who are transferring to a school may also be entitled to a one-time payment of $500.
Soldiers on active duty may tap in to the Post-9/11 G.I. Bill and apply benefits toward tuition. However, active-duty Soldiers are not entitled to receive the housing allowance from the program, nor the books and supplies stipend.
Benefits under the Post-9/11 G.I. Bill can be used for all levels of degree programs. The program allows Soldiers to earn a second degree, a master's degree or even a doctorate.
Soldiers meeting the eligibility requirements to transfer benefits to their family members already exceed the requirements to earn 100-percent of the Post-9/11 G.I. Bill benefits.
Soldiers who have served less than the time required to earn 100-percent of the benefit under the Post-9/11 G.I. Bill may receive benefits at a prorated amount. The amount of active service members have after 9/11 determines what percentage of benefits they can receive under the Post-9/11 G.I. Bill.

 Member Serves	 Percentage of Maximum Benefit Payable

 At least 36 months	 100%

 At least 30 continuous days on active duty and must be discharged due to service-connected disability	 100%

 At least 30 months, but less than 36 months	 90%

 At least 24 months, but less than 30 months	 80%

 At least 18 months, but less than 24 months	 70%

 At least 12 months, but less than 18 months	 60%

 At least 06 months, but less than 12 months	 50%

 At least 90 days, but less than 06 months	 40%

Water Scarcity in the Arab World
Access to safe water is a global concern and water scarcity is a key dimension of poverty in Arab countries. As population pressures in the region increase the demand for water resources rise and so further hamper efforts at alleviating poverty and promoting sustainable development in the region. This report looks at the severity of freshwater shortages in the Arab region, the impact of such shortages on the population and the challenges that Arab countries face in meeting a growing demand for safe water. It also looks at the options and strategies available to Governments in controlling scarce freshwater supplies and in managing demand through conservation and the use of efficient technologies. Demographic trends in the region are also examined with the aim of reducing long term pressure on water by slowing down population growth and improving reproductive healthcare of women

LAWRENCE, Kan. 14th-ranked Iowa State out blocked Kansas, 13-2, and used 13 kills from Victoria Henson to sweep Kansas, 3-0 (25-18, 25-16, 25-17), Saturday night at the Horejsi Family Athletics Center. The win, Iowa States fifth in a row, leaves the Cyclones at 14-3 overall and 6-2 in Big 12 play. The 6-2 start in Big 12 play is the best in school history. Kansas falls to 9-7 overall and 2-5 in league play. Henson wrapped up a solid week with another good all-around performance. The junior hit .278 in posting a match-high 13 kills to go along with seven digs and three block assists. Henson moved into seventh all-time at ISU, passing Dana Burson (1986-89), with 1,049 kills. Kaylee Manns finished with 34 assists, becoming the fifth player in Big 12 history to go over 5,000 career assists. Manns, who now has 5,013 assists, also had nine digs, a solo block and four block assists. Defensively, ISU was dominant at the net, out blocking its opponent for the third-straight contest. Freshman Jamie Straube had a match high six block assists and sophomore Debbie Stadick added five.

Is it fair to say that ISU's two best players are Manns and Henson? Both went to HS less than an hour from KU. Nice job recruiting by ISU.

The value of a comfortable car is very important consideration making a purchase. The best driving experience is comprised of the smooth operation of many parts. A faulty Lincoln Town Car AC Hose is sometimes slightly hard to find since often the air conditioning still works, but progressively less effectively. Your vehicle's Lincoln Town Car AC Hose transmits coolant fluid to and from several major components like the vehicle's a/c compressor and recovery tank. With a flawed Lincoln Town Car AC Hose, the climate control won't operate effectively and may likely drip cooling liquid on the floor below your car. Many times, repair charges to fix a Lincoln Town Car AC Hose at your closest a/c repair shop are pricey, but usually this is a repair that most drivers should be able to perform themselves. Replacing your Lincoln Town Car AC Hose can be a simple answer when your automobile's climate control isn't operating properly.
They are available for the following Lincoln Town Car years: 2002, 2001, 2000, 1999, 1998, 1997, 1996, 1995, 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991, 1990, 1989, 1988, 1987, 1986, 1985, 1984, 1982, 02, 01, 00, 99, 98, 97, 96, 95, 94, 93, 92, 91, 90, 89, 88, 87, 86, 85, 84, 82.

If there's such a thing as heritage in the relatively fledgling world of smartphones, the Samsung Galaxy S III has it. Seldom does a phone – at least, one not wearing an Apple logo – arrive to so many expectations, and this time around Samsung even managed to match its Cupertino rival for pre-launch hype, rumor and intrigue. If the original Galaxy S convinced us Samsung could indeed be a top-tier player, and the Galaxy S II play...
The Galaxy S3 has been available in the market for a while now, but with the recent update to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean (the 4.1.1 platform), not only has the S3 been given a speed boost; there`s also a host of other goodies thrown in as well. It`s mostly changes to the interface that have been brought with the new update, but there are a few other areas that have been updated with the new breed of TouchWiz, so we`ve spent a few weeks checking them ...
Pros: Excellent battery life, Superb screen, Quad core speed, Top media management,
Cons: Subjective design, S Voice not optimised,
Verdict: The best smartphone around right now with a whole suite of premium features to play with....
The day before its official announcement, Matt Warman got some time with the new Samsung Galaxy S3. Here are his first impressions....
Verdict: Overall, the device is in many ways much like its predecessor: does it feel as solid or heavy in the hand as the iPhone? No, although itu2019s certainly a lot bigger. Is it a different, superb product in its own right? Absolutely. On spending just a ...
The Samsung Galaxy S III is the Android phone of the moment and in many ways it lives up to the hype. Plenty of folks are excited to see this thing hit store shelves. Our take? They won`t be disappointed....
Pros: Tons of cool software like S-Beam and Buddy Photo Share ; Beautiful, large display ; Solid battery life
Cons: The plastic feels cheap and grabs prints ; TouchWiz is heavy and ugly
Verdict: In the end, the Samsung Galaxy S III is the phone youu2019ve been waiting for. Itu2019s generally well-built, it has an incredible display, solid battery life, plenty of interesting features and it just works well. Thatu2019s not something I find mys...
The highly anticipated Samsung Galaxy S3 has finally arrived and it comes toting a quad-core processor, massive 4.8 Super AMOLED screen and raft of new features...
Pros: Great screen ; Decent battery life ; Chock-full of features
Cons: Itu2019s just so big ; Gloss plastic looks low-end ; Some extras seem gimmicky
Verdict: The Samsung Galaxy S3 certainly looks impressive, especially thanks to the zippy operation that results from that quad-core chip....
Overall User Rating (4.3 Out of 5 based on 4 ratings)
Best Features: yas
Pros: jkliul
Cons: ukuykuyku
Overall: uyuykujykuy
Pros: camera
Cons: design
Overall: While this phone is easily the best in the market right now, what makes it better is a good case, like the one I have from JsxlTech. It is slide-able and detachable and has a bluetooth keyboard attached, which make typing long emails really easy! Keyboard Case for SIII
Best Features: display
Pros: Hardware
Cons: Samsung Touch Wiz
Overall: Samsung Galaxy S3 is a very good smartphone, packed with features and with a very competitive price. Probably its biggest downside is the Samsung Touch Wiz which does not meet the high specs of the phone, the similar Galaxy Nexus phone does much better without the Samsung Touch Wiz interface.

Pros: Possibilities of enormous
Cons: Difficult to determine now

text: 10:15AM TUESDAY, MAY 15, 2012 Tuesday May 15, 2012... IT LOOKS LIKE THESE TEACHERS HAVE BEEN STEALING SOME OF MY DANCE MOVES...IT'S HARD NOT TO GIGGLE AT THIS THIS COULD MAKE FOR SOME VERY INTERESTING FAMILY DINNER CONVERSATION... Michelle Schimel, a New York assemblywoman who is running for her fourth term, is all too familiar with her opponent in this fall's election. Schimel, a Democrat who represents the 16th Assembly district in New York, will be challenged by her husband, Mark Schimel, who was selected by the Nassau County GOP to be the party's nominee in November's election. According to ABC News, he was chosen over two other potential candidates. The Schimels, who have been married for 32 years and have two children, are separated but not legally divorced. Frank Moroney, who serves as chairman of the North Hempstead Republican Committee, defended Mark Schimel's candidacy, stating that Schimel's decision to run had nothing to do with his relationship with his wife. �He had the plan and the interest, and we made sure that everybody knows him," Moroney told ABC. "We weren�t looking for a circus. We weren�t looking for a sideshow." However, Michelle Schimel sees the situation quite differently. "This is a very painful and personal family matter," she said in a statement. "The Republican Party is taking advanatge of it and manipulating the political process. They are using it as an opportunity to drag my personal life into the public." The assemblywoman has held her seat since 2007, when she was elected to replace Thomas DiNapoli, who left office to become New York state comptroller. At least one person expects her to hold on to her seat -- Mark Schimel's mother, Irma. "He�ll never win anything against Michelle,� Irma Schimel told the Daily News. "They [the voters] love her." She also expressed disappointment in her son's choice to run. �I can�t believe he�d do a thing like this," she said. "I�m going to talk to him.� WHO DO YOU THINK THE KIDS WILL VOTE FOR? VERY COOL VIDEO OF THE PLANET, PICS ARE TAKEN FROM A RUSSIAN WEATHER SATELLITE, IT TAKES A PIC EVERY 30 MINUTES, PRETTY COOL! CARDBOARD WORTH $15,000!!! "Antiques Roadshow" (Mon., 8 p.m. ET on PBS) was in Minneapolis Monday night, and one of the standout items brought in to be appraised was a cardboard cutout, or standee, of The King himself, Elvis Presley. The figure was a promotional one used in movie theaters to advertise Presley's 1956 movie debut, "Love Me Tender," and is believed to be one of only two or three still extant. The owner was a huge Elvis fan who said she kept it at the side of her bed. So, how much for a cardboard cutout of Elvis? The estimated sale price was a cool $10,000 to $15,000.Modified 12:21pm Tuesday, May 15, 2012 Comments...from Vishal It's indeed peefrct for cloudy days. (Sunny spring days too.)@Jun: It's a little of both, I think! :)@Tine: Hooray indeed!@Mika: I don't like white asparagus either! It kind of baffles me. There's got to be someone, somewhere in Germany, that lets it see the light of day and turn green. Fingers crossed.@BiancaSasha: I totally agree! And thank you. I felt kind of tongue-tied writing this one. 2012-06-06 14:39:29from Madoda MARIN YOUTH BASKETBALLResults for the Memorial Day Weekend of May 26 to 28Reno, NevadaStrictly Hoops 7th Grade Girls AAU basketball team finheisd in third place at the AAU Memorial Day Weekend tournament in Reno. They opened Saturday morning with a tough 59 to 54 loss to the eventual champion Bullys of Reno. Many at courtside remarked that the game felt like the championship game, given the intensity on both sides. Hoops led 44 to 39 midway through the second half and were knotted at 48 with fewer than 3 minutes to play. But the Bullys surged ahead and held on to win. Emily Easom had 10 points, Kristina Meyers added 9 points and Madison Tye chipped in with 7 points. Hoops bounced back with a 52 to 26 win over Bay Area Elite. They jumped out to an 11 to 0 lead and cruised to victory. Anne Studdert led the way with 13 points. Hoops next victim was Marin Freedom, whom they defeated 66 to 33. Emily Easom poured in 18 points, including 3 three-pointers and Anne Studdert scored 13 points. Hannah Caine added 12 points, including 2 three-pointers and Kristina Meyers tallied 10 points. Kate Bayes grabbed 8 rebounds. In the semifinals Hoops dropped a heartbreaker to the Manteca Nuggets 48 to 47. Leading 42 to 30 with under 6 minutes to play, Hoops could not hold on for the win. They still led 47 to 44 with less than 2 minutes to play, but two baskets, including one with 20 seconds to play, did them in. A last second 15 footer did not fall and Hoops championship dreams were dashed. Hannah Caine led Hoops with 14 points, Emily Easom added 11 points and Leann Alferness scored 10 points. But Hoops were very resilient and they rebounded with a 46 to 27 victory over the Bay Area Elite, to capture third place. They started out very slowly and trailed 10 to 2 midway through the first half. After closing the deficit to 3 at halftime, Hoops outscored their opponent 34 to 12 in the second half to run away with the victory. Hannah Caine continued her torrid shooting, scoring 14 of her game-high 16 points in the second half. Anne Studdert had 7 points, Sarah Lucia added 6 points and Anya Daniels pulled down 10 rebounds.Spring Season SummaryHoops finheisd their spring season with a record of 19 and 6, with one loss by 1 point, one loss by 2 points, two losses by 3 points and one loss by 5 points. Their overall 2007 record is 21 wins and 7 losses. All 10 players averaged between 3 and 8 points for the season, as Hoops demonstrated the best in team play and selflessness. 2014-07-23 20:51:46 Post Your Comment...

American Discovery Trail
What a way to travel - about 75 miles, from one major river to another (the Illinois and the Mississippi), all on one newly built trail. The Hennepin Parkway State Trail (a linear state park) offers surcease from the flat, treeless Illinois prairie with a lock-strewn straight course of water and a green tunnel over the old tow path of a canal that was obsolete before it was completed. Quaint towns lie nearby, camping spaces (usually primitive) abound, and history is there for the dipping of your fingers in the water. At Sheffield, a comprehensive trail museum more than fills the gaps in your experience of a very unique way to travel through the heart of America.

"Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony." - Gandhi This is my 13th year teaching middle school and every year my practice is refined to provide the best possible learning experience for my students. Although I have experience in all 6th grade subjects, my specialty is designing engaging science activities. Great science instruction occurs when the materials are moved from the teacher's desk to the student's desk. I just LOVE the look on a student's face when they say "Ah Ha" I get it! I hope by sharing on TpT, my ideas will help students around the world have those "ah ha moments." I also have experience working with teachers to enhance use of technology, as well as with strategies for implementing literacy skills across content areas. I seriously have the best job in the world!

THE LONGEST NIGHT SERVICE OR BLUE CHRISTMAS Instructions
We suggest lighting candles because their light becomes a sign of
hope in this season of darkness. (If feasible, dim the lights
in the church
to accentuate the light form the candles.)
We suggested distributing the elements in the pews, with the people
partaking of the elements at their own time. This recognizes
that the people attending this particular service do not
feel a unity;
they are
there because they feel isolated and alone. We also
suggest that the presiders give the bread and wine to the servers
at the table,
come down to sit with the congregation to receive the
elements. If all participants are encouraged to say words such
as "The bread of
life" and "The true vine" while passing
the bread and wine/juice to each other, then the servers
may partake when they
receive the elements from the person on the end of a pew,
before passing the bread/wine on to the next pew.
Part 1
Invitation to light candle: Leader: I invite all who profess Jesus as Lord and Savior and who seek to follow in his way and to live in unity with one another, to come to this tale with reverence and with faith. Eat and drink for your strengthening, that you may grow in grace and be blessed, remembering that we, though many, are one body in Jesus Christ. Consecration: The minister takes the bread and breaks it, saying Carol: Go Tell it on the Mountain (a spiritual, sung by people who knew
oppression and suffering) |

Our vintage adventure in Penzance.
Vintage 50s Dress - Kitts Corner
Ice Cream Detail Heels - Irregular Choice
Cats Eyes Sunglasses* - Giant Vintage
Pastel Pink Bag - Primark
Lacey Socks - Ebay
Today I convinced my mum to join me on a vintage adventure in Penzance. Penzance is a town that I have often heard being praised for it's abundance of vintage boutiques, so after a bit of preliminary research (and a quick lunch at Costa!) we dove straight in and attempted to navigate the streets of Penzance in search of vintage treasures.
Our first stop was Boudoir, described as 'A Lady's Private Room', in the doorway of a small arcade on Chapel Street. It's an adorable, slither of a boutique, and as you can see in the first three photos the attention to detail is stunning. It was everything a girly haven should be; there were towers of colourful, tasselled lampshades, gaggles of delicate perfume bottles, and a very thoughtful collection of preloved clothing. I picked out a red shift dress with a swooping cream peter pan collar, which I was thrilled to find was a perfect fit. As my mum tried on a dress of her own I had a chat with the owner, who formerly worked in fashion PR, and now writes a column for The Cornishman. Meeting such inspiring people never fails to get me excited about what the future holds!
The next stop was just down the road, and the nationally acclaimed Kitts Corner. It was darker, busier, and more cluttered than Boudoir, but in an endearing way. There were retro mannequins dotted around, with faces that were somehow simulataneously sinister and charming, and all around were vintage hats, shoes and other paraphanalia. Racks bulged with immaculate vintage evening dresses, each painstakingly labelled with the appropriate occasion and era, and as I tried on the above dress I recognised the faint strains of Abba permeating the air.
Not only was the shop itself a Wonderland, but I was absolutely over the moon with this 50s dress. For these photos I dressed it up with frilly socks, vintage cats eyes sunglasses, a little pink bag and a dusty pink ribbon tied around the waist. I was also thrilled as it gave me an excuse to dig out my old Irregular Choice heels (an 18th birthday present from a good friend - aren't I lucky?).
The overall ensemble reminds me of vintage milkshake bars and ice cream sundaes! Very summery indeed - now we just need some sunshine... But, at very least, I've had a lovely day with my mummy!

The relation of BDNF VAL66MET polymorphism to neural volume and drinking behavior among adolescents

dc.description.abstract | Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) plays an important role in neural plasticity, learning and memory. Due to its relation to neurogenesis, BDNF has been studied with respect to its protective effects against various cognitive dysregulations, including those related to alcohol dependence. Recent evidence suggests that alcohol dependent individuals, in addition to those with a family history of alcoholism, have lower basal levels of BDNF as compared to controls. In adult populations, the Met variant of the Val66Met polymorphism, which results in decreased release of BDNF, has been associated with decreased neural volume as well as increased risk for alcohol problems. Using samples with prolonged alcohol exposure makes it difficult to determine the direction of the relationship between neural volume and drinking behavior. Therefore the current study set out to determine whether a relationship between BDNF, neural volume and drinking behavior could be detected using a sample of adolescents. Since this relationship is well demonstrated using adult samples, it was hypothesized that BDNF genotype would be correlated with drinking behavior among adolescents, and this relationship would be mediated by differences in neural volume. 220 adolescents gave saliva samples, participated in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and completed behavioral measures designed to assess drinking behavior. Although BDNF was not correlated with drinking behavior, other interesting relationships were discovered including an inverse relationship between age and cerebral cortex volume, a positive relationship between accumbens volume and drinking, and distinct findings based on gender. | en_US |

Definitions for fud
This page provides all possible meanings and translations of the word fud
Webster Dictionary
the tail of a hare, coney, etc
woolen waste, for mixing with mungo and shoddy
Origin: [Of uncertain origin.]
The New Hacker's Dictionary
Defined by Gene Amdahl after he left IBM to found his own company: "FUD is the fear, uncertainty, and doubt that IBM sales people instill in the minds of potential customers who might be considering [Amdahl] products." The idea, of course, was to persuade them to go with safe IBM gear rather than with competitors' equipment. This implicit coercion was traditionally accomplished by promising that Good Things would happen to people who stuck with IBM, but Dark Shadows loomed over the future of competitors' equipment or software. See IBM. After 1990 the term FUD was associated increasingly frequently with Microsoft, and has become generalized to refer to any kind of disinformation used as a competitive weapon.[In 2003, SCO sued IBM in an action which, among other things, alleged SCO's proprietary control of Linux. The SCO suit rapidly became infamous for the number and magnitude of falsehoods alleged in SCO's filings. In October 2003, SCO's lawyers filed a memorandum in which they actually had the temerity to link to the web version of this entry in furtherance of their claims. Whilst we appreciate the compliment of being treated as an authority, we can return it only by observing that SCO has become a nest of liars and thieves compared to which IBM at its historic worst looked positively angelic. Any judge or law clerk reading this should surf through to my collected resources on this topic for the appalling details.—ESR]

Advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) is an integrated system of smart meters, communications networks, and data management systems that enables two-way communication between utilities and customers. Customer systems include in-home displays, home area networks, energy management systems, and other customer-side-of-the-meter equipment that enable smart grid functions in residential, commercial, and industrial facilities.
- * In some circumstances, costs are incurred before devices are installed resulting in a reported cost where the quantity is zero.
- * All dollar figures are the total cost, which is the sum of the federal investment and cost share of the recipient (the recipient cost share must be at least 50% of the total overall project cost).
** In some cases the number of entities reporting is greater than the total number of projects funded by the Recovery Act because some projects have multiple sub-projects that report data.
** Projects only report data on devices they plan to install. Each project installs equipment that best supports their individual goals. Therefore, the number of projects reporting is expected to vary by equipment category. The individual project reporting pages show what equipment that project is installing.

Survivors can experience chronic fatigue because of the treatment they received for their cancer or because of the different emotions they are feeling during the cancer journey. Fatigue also can be a sign of a recurrence or another illness. Types of fatigue include:
- Acute fatigue, when you feel tired for a short time.
- Chronic fatigue, a feeling of tiredness that is always with you. It can also be a feeling of tiredness that comes and goes but never goes away completely.
Ways to Lessen Fatigue
- Maintain a comfortable balance between activity and rest.
- Work closely with your health care team to identify and treat physical conditions that may be contributing to fatigue such as chronic pain and infection.
- Create balance in your life with a healthy lifestyle (eating, exercise, not smoking, etc.).
- Pay attention to your sleep habits. Try keeping a sleep diary to make notes that you can share with your health care provider.
- Ask your health care provider if a new medication could be causing the fatigue.
If you feel fatigue, don't ignore it or convince yourself not to complain. Talk to your health care team about managing fatigue symptoms.
Symptoms of fatigue:
- Feeling tired even after a good night's sleep.
- Feeling sleepy throughout the day.
- Feeling sudden, extreme tiredness.
- Feeling too weak to stand.
- Finding it difficult to start routine activities.
- Needing to stop in the middle of activities to rest.
- Not being able to do activities for very long.
- Difficulty concentrating.
- Irritability.
Cancer Treatments that Could Cause Fatigue
In most cases, your energy level will return to normal within the first six months after active treatment ends. However, studies have found that about 30 percent of cancer survivors may experience fatigue that lasts much longer, even for years. Certain cancer treatments are more likely to cause fatigue, such as:
- Chemotherapy.
- Biological therapies (such as Interferon).
- High doses of chemotherapy followed by a bone marrow transplant or a stem cell transplant.
- Certain medications that can cause fatigue.
- Treatment with chemotherapy, radiation or surgery that affects hormones.
Many people think that fatigue is something you only experience during treatment. In fact, some survivors experience fatigue months or years after completing active treatment.
If you've been feeling good for a while but suddenly become extremely tired again, you may be experiencing a new, severe fatigue. This can be a sign of infection or a late effect of cancer treatment. Make an appointment with your health care provider to discuss your fatigue.
Physical Causes of Fatigue
Sometimes you won't find the exact cause of your fatigue, but you and your health care team can still work together to help manage your fatigue. Some physical causes of fatigue include:
- Low red blood cell counts (anemia).
- Difficulty breathing.
- Changes in how well your heart pumps blood.
- Changes in muscle or bone due to surgery or treatment.
- Changes in the hormone levels in your body.
- Changes in your immune function or the way your body responds when your immune system is challenged.
- Changes in kidney function so your body is not as good at clearing out waste products.
- Trouble sleeping.
- Symptoms such as pain or numbness in your feet that make it harder to move.
- Side effects of medications.
- Chronic pain.
- Inactivity.
- Poor nutritional intake or dehydration.
Emotional Causes of Fatigue
Fatigue can also be associated with depression (a prolonged feeling of sadness). Both can happen during your experience with cancer. Both are real problems that you should discuss with your health care team. However, being tired does not necessarily mean a survivor is depressed. Those around you might say things like, "You're not tired – you're just depressed." While depression may be one cause of fatigue, it's important to discuss all possible physical and emotional causes with your health care team. Emotional causes of fatigue include:
- Anxiety.
- Frustration.
- Boredom.
- Depression.
Fatigue is a treatable condition, and you can work with your health care team to manage the symptoms. The medical community is working to understand fatigue and to find a cure.

Channing Tatum's Daughter Everly "Lights Up" When She Sees Him
It's not everyday that we get jealous of a seven-month-old baby. But little Everly Tatum — born May 31, 2013 — isn't just any baby. She's the daughter of Hollywood dreamboat Channing Tatum. And as it turns out, Everly's just as entranced by her movie star papa as we are. Chan's wife (and former Step Up co-star) Jenna Dewan-Tatum is on the cover of January's Ocean Drive magazine, and she gives the mag, via E! Online, an inside look into the precious father-daughter relationship. The 22 Jump Street star is often traveling for work, and Jenna says she and Everly use FaceTime as a way to stay connected. "She absolutely can recognize him and touches the phone," the proud mom reveals. As for Channing's personality around his daughter, Jenna refers to him as "Mr. Play Funtime Dad." Jenna has previously said that Chan beatboxes to help calm Everly when she's crying or upset. Now, she shares even more details about Channing's great parenting. "Every time he comes in, he's singing to her. He holds her and dances around and she's laughing. She literally lights up when he walks in the room." Okay, so if that didn't make you melt into a puddle on the floor, we're not sure what will. Channing and Everly's relationship sounds practically perfect.
