Santa not only one to work on Christmas Day
"My sister said to me 'Happy Christmas' and I said 'Happy Wednesday'."SUSAN STRONGMAN

Lee-Ann Betts says Christmas Day is just like any other.
She has worked at the New Plymouth dog pound for 10 years and yesterday she worked her third Christmas Day. Like many hundreds of other people around the region, the day was not one of rest and time with family.
"My sister said to me 'Happy Christmas' and I said 'Happy Wednesday'."
Miss Betts was looking after 12 dogs yesterday, from 8am to 6pm.
She remained on call until 7 o'clock this morning.
Each dog at the pound received a Schmacko and a pork bone for Christmas Day breakfast.
It had not been a busy day for Miss Betts and the dogs appeared to be in high Christmas spirits.
Eight-year-old Puppy Girl, a staffy cross, even got an extra Schmacko and a run around in the pohutukawa trees.
"She's only been here since the 20th," said Miss Betts, who hoped she would find a good home soon.
"She has a lovely personality, she just needs some TLC."
At the New Plymouth Fire Station, eight on-duty firemen and women had a hearty Christmas dinner of roast chicken, glazed ham on the bone, new potatoes and trifle with blue meringue.
"Luckily, we can bring our partners and children in for Christmas dinner," officer in charge Dave Utumatu said as the group watched the movie Hook in the dining room at lunch time.
In the past he said the Christmas Day group - with kids and partners added - had filled two extra tables.
Today's smaller group of eight, plus one wife, meant they had spare meringues to share with journalists, who also worked on Christmas Day.
Mr Utumatu said there had been a couple of callouts on Christmas morning, both false alarms after hangi smoke had been spotted by neighbours.
He said it was quiet compared with Christmas Eve, when traffic was backed up and it was hard to get fire trucks out.
Down the road at New Plymouth's new police station, Senior Sergeant Allan Whaley said there were "about a dozen" staff on in the New Plymouth area on Christmas Day.
"It's relatively quiet at the moment," he said at midday.
He said police had not added anything festive to their uniforms for the silly season.
"Santa hats don't really go with our uniforms.
"We have to maintain a bit of professionalism."
For dairy farmers Rosemary and Michael Kuriger of Urenui, Christmas Day meant a 4.30am start, as usual.
"After the milking we rushed home and had breakfast at 8.30," said Mrs Kuriger, who has a full house, with three kids, their partners and five grandchildren.
"My husband loves working Christmas Day," she said.
After a big breakfast and lunch, rather than feeling bloated and having a lie down, she said Mr Kuriger liked to go back to work so that by the time dinner came around he was hungry again.
"It's nice to work up an appetite."
Other people working on Christmas Day included lifeguards, medical professionals, taxi drivers, petrol station and dairy staff and oil rig workers.

Did success spoil William Garrow?,
This review is from: Sir William Garrow: His Life, Times and Fight for Justice (Hardcover)
My greatest worry about Garrow's biography was that it might have been written by lawyers for their peers. I prefer my resources to be readable without having a legal adviser on speed-dial for emergency translations.
"I will put it now to you" that I was positively surprised when, some pages into the book, it became clear that the authors had found the right words to satisfy both groups of readers: the curious professional and the professionally curious ones.
I'm aware that the biography of a lawyer is probably not the first choice when it comes to reading for leisure, but I can promise you that you will not be bored. Be prepared for a wake-up call, though - by diving into the legal world of the 18th and 19th century, you might get to appreciate our legal system more once you realise just how much it has changed for the better in terms of humanity and the value and respect given to human life.
Some will argue (and to a point I agree) that today's society is too focused on the criminals and does not do enough for the victims. But still, who would want to return to a time when people got hanged for a theft of goods worth 30s? I mean, who but the readers of certain tabloids?
This book contains Garrow's history, his family background, his unusual relationship with Lady Sarah, some of his cases (with excerpts of his cross-examinations) and describes the changes he initiated in British law and, as a consequence, in British society. It's well-structured, easy to read and understand.
Don't let the excellent TV show "Garrow's Law" fool you, though: Sir William Garrow wasn't a knight in shining armour. In fact, the aggressive young barrister fighting for the "underbelly" of society went, as Geoffrey Robertson QC puts it so eloquently in his foreword, "over to the dark side"; he became the cruel bite to Pitt's hysteric bark.
"Did success spoil William Garrow?" I'm afraid that yes, it did. But this doesn't change the fact that Sir William Garrow was one of those men who shaped the foundations of the world we know today, and it's a great thing his story has finally been written.

Thank you for your excellent and informative view. Since the TV series, I have become very interested in the character and historical influence of the real Garrow and it seems that this book would be an invaluable asset in that pursuit. I am disappointed to learn of Garrow's traversing to the dark side. I guess I'll need to get the book for the full details

1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to an ultrasound diagnostic apparatus, and more particularly to an ultrasound diagnostic apparatus which can be used for evaluation of dynamic characteristics of a diagnosed bone.
2. Description of the Related Art
Easy quantitative measurement of mechanical characteristics such as bone strength is desired for diagnosing bone metabolic diseases such as osteoporosis, judging fracture risk, and quantitatively diagnosing bone union after treatment of bone fracture.
The evaluation of bone formation and bone union depends largely on X-ray photography, but quantitatively diagnosing bone strength by means of X-ray photography is very difficult. The X-ray irradiation may also have adverse effects on a measurement target.
To evaluate dynamic characteristics of a bone, the ultrasound diagnostic apparatus discussed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2004-298205 forms ultrasonic beams on the bone (i.e., measurement target), obtains echo signals corresponding to the individual ultrasonic beams to specify surface points corresponding to a bone surface for respective echo signals, and generates shape data of the bone surface based on the surface points obtained from the echo signals. Moreover, the apparatus calculates a distortion of the bone subjected to an external load based on the obtained shape data, and uses the obtained distortion value as a reference value in the measurement of bone strength, or determination of cured state of a fractured bone. The distortion obtained in this manner is a numerical value that can be used as an evaluation reference. Thus, the ultrasound diagnostic apparatus can realize a quantitative measurement of bone strength based on the obtained distortion.
However, the ultrasound diagnostic apparatus discussed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2004-298205 calculates a distortion representing a position change rate in the radial direction of a diagnosed bone. More specifically, the apparatus obtains a distortion ε defined by a formula ε=Δd/L when L represents the length of a measurement range and Δd represents a maximum displacement (i.e., maximum deflection) of a diagnosed bone in the radial direction when an external load is applied thereon. Namely, according to the Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2004-298205, any factors other than a shape change on the bone surface (e.g., thickness of bone, cross-sectional shape, etc) are not taken into consideration.
Therefore, if two measurement targets mutually compared are different in the thickness of bone, their measurement results cannot be directly compared. As a result, evaluating the cured state of a fractured bone may fail if distortion data of a healthy bone having the same thickness is unavailable.
In view of the above circumstances, the present invention provides an ultrasound diagnostic apparatus capable of appropriately evaluating dynamic characteristics of a bone.
According to an aspect of the present invention, an ultrasound diagnostic apparatus can transmit an ultrasonic beam to a bone of a diagnosis object and diagnose dynamic characteristics of the bone. The ultrasound diagnostic apparatus includes a position data acquirement unit configured to acquire position data of a bone surface in a state where an external load is applied on the bone based on an echo signal obtained from an ultrasonic beam transmitted to the bone surface of a target body, a storage unit configured to store bone shape data including bone thickness information, and a calculation unit configured to calculate a distortion representing a change rate in an axial length of the bone based on the position data of the bone surface and the bone shape data.
It is preferable that the change rate in the axial length of the bone is equal to a ratio of the radius of an arc representing the bone surface to the radius of an arc representing a neutral axis of the bone in the state where the external load is applied on the bone. In this case, the bone shape data includes sectional shape information of the bone, and a method for calculating the arc radius representing the neutral axis is variable depending on the sectional shape information of the bone. Furthermore, a bone type of the diagnosis object is treated as the sectional shape information of the bone.
The ultrasound diagnostic apparatus according to the present invention calculates a distortion based on the bone shape data including bone thickness information. Thus, the obtained distortion reflects individual differences, such as thickness of bone, and accordingly can be appropriately used to evaluate dynamic characteristics of a diagnosed bone.
Exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail based on the following figures, wherein:
An embodiment of the present invention is described below in detail with reference to the drawings.
The ultrasound diagnostic apparatus according to the present embodiment includes an ultrasonic probe 10 which is brought into contact with a body surface 50 of a measurement target. If desirable, the probe 10 can be replaced with any other type of ultrasonic probe which may be located inside the body of the measurement target. The probe 10 has the capability of emitting ultrasonic beams 40 formed on a bone 52 in the body of the measurement target.
A transmitter/receiver 12 controls the probe 10 that performs electric scanning with ultrasonic beams 40 on a tomography surface. For example, if the probe 10 is a linear probe, a total of 120 ultrasonic beams 40 are successively emitted from the probe 10 for electric scanning. The transmitter/receiver 12 obtains an echo signal from each ultrasonic beam 40. A transmitter/receiver control unit 14 controls the transmitter/receiver 12 according to a user's instruction input via an operation panel 16.
The transmitter/receiver 12 outputs plural echo signals being thus obtained to a tomography image formation unit 18. The tomography image formation unit 18 forms a tomography image (B-mode image) of a target bone based on the plural echo signals. The transmitter/receiver 12 also outputs the obtained echo signals to an echo tracking processing unit 20. The echo tracking processing unit 20 performs echo tracking processing (i.e., extracting bone surface portions from the echo signals and perform tracking). For example, a technique discussed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2001-309918 can be used for the echo tracking processing. The echo tracking processing uses a plurality of (e.g., three) tracking echo signals. The tracking echo signals can be selected from echo signals used for tomography image formation (e.g., 120 echo signals) Alternatively, three echo signals dedicated to the tracking can be used if available during interruption of the tomography image formation.
Although the exemplary tracking illustrated in
An interpolation line generation unit 22 (illustrated in
A distortion calculation unit 28 calculates distortion ε of a bone in a state where an external load is applied to the bone. More specifically, the distortion calculation unit 28 calculates the distortion ε based on the interpolated line and bone shape data input via the operation panel 16 from a user. The calculation method of the distortion ε will be described later.
The bone shape data includes bone thickness information and sectional shape information of a diagnosis object.
The thickness of a bone can be measured beforehand with an image diagnosing apparatus using an X-ray (e.g., X-ray tube or CT), or can be calculated based on a B-mode image obtained by the ultrasound diagnostic apparatus. The cross-sectional shape of a bone is dependent on the type of the bone and does not reflect individual differences. For example, the cross-sectional shape of a thighbone is substantially a circle. The cross-sectional shape of a shinbone is substantially an equilateral triangle. Accordingly, a user can select a corresponding bone type (i.e., the shape of the diagnosis object) as a cross-sectional shape of the bone.
A display image formation unit 32 forms an image, as a diagnosis result, to be displayed on a display 34. The display image formation unit 32 receives a tomography image from the tomography image formation unit 18, the distortion ε from the distortion calculation unit 28, and a load value applied to the bone which can be measured by a load measurement device 36. The display image formation unit 32 forms an image including a graph indicating a relationship between the distortion ε and the applied load. If desirable, the display image formation unit 32 further combines the obtained graph image with the B-mode image. Then, the display image formation unit 32 outputs a resultant image as a display image to the display 34.
The distortion ε (i.e., index of bone diagnosis) is described below in more detail. The distortion ε is a value representing expansion/contraction characteristics of a member deformed when an external load is applied on this member, and can be used as an index evaluating strength. In the present embodiment, the distortion ε represents an expansion/contraction ratio in the axial direction. For example, as illustrated in
In general, when a load is applied on an upper surface of a bar member, the upper surface of the bar member contracts while a lower surface expands. On the other hand, an intermediate portion of the bar member does not cause any change in the length. The portion causing no change in the length is referred to as neutral axis (indicated by 100 b in
No expansion/contraction of the member is caused on the neutral axis 100 b. The length of the neutral axis 100 b is equal to the length of the upper surface 100 a of the bar 100 in a no-load state. Accordingly, the distortion ε (ε=α/D) can be obtained based on the length of the neutral axis 100 b and a length of the upper surface 100 a of the bar 100 in a state where a load is applied to the bar 100. Thus, the present embodiment calculates the distortion ε of a bone in a loaded state according to this principle.
An exemplary method for calculating the distortion ε of a thighbone having a substantially circular cross section is described below.
In this example, the length L of the measurement range of the ultrasound diagnostic apparatus and a deflection h of the bone are sufficiently short compared to the entire length of the bone. Accordingly, a deflection shape of the bone in a measurement range can be presumed as an arc having a constant radius of curvature.
If x represents the length of a bone surface in the measurement range (i.e., the length of interpolated line 52 a) and x+dx represents the length of the bone along the neutral axis (indicated by an alternate long and short dash line in
ε=dx/(x+dx) formula 1
As a deflected bone can be presumed to have an arc shape, two items dx and x+dx in formula 1 can be converted into a formula for an arc. Namely, if "r" represents the radius of an arc representing a bone surface (i.e., interpolated line: bold line) and "r+dr" represents the radius of an arc representing a bone neutral axis 52 b (i.e., bold alternate long and short dash line), relationships dx=r�K and x+dx=(r+dr)�K are obtained with a definition K=2π�θ/360�. If these relationships are used to rewrite the formula 1, the following formula 2 can be obtained.
ε=r/(r+dr) formula 2
Furthermore, if the cross-sectional shape of a bone is substantially a circle, the neutral axis 52 b agrees with the central point of a circle. Accordingly, if φ represents an outer diameter of the bone, the following formula 3 can be obtained.
dr=φ/2 formula 3
Furthermore, the following formula 4 can be derived from a right triangle indicated by a dotted line in
r 2={(L/2)2+(r−h)2}
r=(L 2+4h 2)/8h formula 4
Then, the following formula 5 can be obtained from the above-described formulas 2, 3, and 4.
In the formula 5, a right side is composed of known values. Namely, the deflection h and the measurement range length L can be obtained from the interpolated line. The bone outer diameter φ can be designated beforehand by a user. Thus, the distortion ε can be calculated based on known values according to the formula 5.
According to the above-described conventional technique, an index evaluating the bone dynamic characteristics is a ratio (h/L) of the deflection h to the measurement range length L. The ratio h/L does not include any factor relating to differences of individual bones, such as thickness of bone. Therefore, the ratio h/L cannot be directly used in the comparison between a measurement result of a diagnosis object and the measurement result of another object which has a different bone thickness. As a result, for example, if the data of a healthy bone having the same thickness is unavailable, the conventional apparatus cannot accurately diagnose the cured state of a fractured bone or cannot detect bone diseases (e.g., faulty union or osteomalacia).
On the other hand, the distortion ε obtained by the present embodiment is a diagnosis index reflecting the bone thickness, i.e., outer diameter φ, as is apparent from the formula 5. Therefore, the distortion ε (i.e., measurement result) of a diagnosis object can be accurately compared with the measurement result of other object which has a different bone thickness. As a result, the present embodiment can facilitate diagnosing the cured state of a fractured bone or bone diseases.
Although the above embodiment has been described with reference to a thighbone having a circular cross section, the present embodiment can be applied to any other bones, such as a shinbone having a triangular cross section. It is however desirable to change the value of dr according to a cross-sectional shape of each bone. For example, if a bone has a circular cross section as illustrated in
Next, an exemplary diagnosis using the distortion ε is described below. An exemplary diagnosis using the distortion ε is, for example, a diagnosis for detecting the cured state of a fractured bone. The diagnosis of a fractured bone (in the degree of bone union) includes measuring a distortion of a fractured bone periodically (e.g., once every two weeks), and comparing the measured distortion with a reference distortion (e.g., a distortion of a healthy bone having not been fractured). The diagnosis further includes determining that a diagnosed bone is sufficiently cured if the distortion of the fractured bone (i.e., diagnosis object) is substantially the same as the reference distortion. The distortion obtained in the present embodiment is a value reflecting the thickness of a bone. Therefore, the present embodiment can perform a proper diagnosis of a fractured bone even if the fractured bone (i.e., diagnosis object) has a thickness different from that of a healthy bone (serving as a reference distortion). As a result, the present embodiment does not require many reference values to be prepared for the comparison with various distortion values of fractured bones which are different in the thickness. Thus, the present embodiment enables a user to easily diagnose the cured state of a fractured bone.
Furthermore, the present embodiment enables a user to check a curing speed of each measurement target based on temporal changes of distortion in comparison with the data of another measurement target. The comparison of curing speeds between plural measurement targets may lead to early detection of various diseases which may delay the union of a fractured bone.
As described above, the present embodiment calculates the distortion ε considering individual differences, such as differences in thickness, between individual bones. The distortion ε calculated by the present embodiment can be used to compare two measurement targets which are different in the thickness of bone. Thus, the present embodiment can properly evaluate the bone dynamic characteristics. Furthermore, the present embodiment can improve the reliability of distortion ε (i.e., evaluation index) by taking a cross-sectional shape of the bone into consideration.
Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described using specific terms, such description is for illustrative purposes only, and it is to be understood that modifications and variations may be made without departing from the spirit or scope of the appended claims.

MS is also for small molecule discovery and quantitation. Chris Petucci, Ph.D., senior research scientist, analytical chemistry at Wyeth (www.wyeth.com), says his group uses MS to support medicinal chemistry and biological programs in drug discovery. MS is used to determine molecular weight, confirm the identity of compounds, and perform accurate mass analyses to determine molecular formulas of unknowns.
The Wyeth group uses tandem-MS to elucidate the structures of compounds and to quantitate trace levels of endogenous compounds in biological matrices such as steroids and fatty acids in serum and brain tissue. "This is an exciting area because the aim is to minimize compound attrition in the early stages of drug discovery," states Dr. Petucci.
"Tandem-MS is the gold standard in the field of analytical chemistry for quantitating trace amounts of compounds down to the femtogram (10-15) level," he explains. "It offers a degree of selectivity and specificity for quantitative studies because parent ions generated from a drug are fragmented into daughter ions. These are specific to the parent ion only and not to other molecules that could be present in the sample matrix."
Important MS characteristics, says Dr. Petucci, include sensitivity, precision, and accuracy. "These are all important in quantitative studies, especially at the clinical stage, because there are FDA requirements for rugged and reproducible assays." In addition, MS is versatile and rapid, providing the molecular weight for a compound in seconds, and when coupled with HPLC, it provides high levels of accuracy.

US Congressman meets with Skye Maritime to learn of factors inhibiting US private maritime security businesses.
Congressman Duncan Hunter (R-CA), a Marine combat veteran and member for the House Armed Services Committee, met with senior executives at Skye Maritime, a California based, veteran owned and operated private maritime security company today to discuss the challenges facing U.S maritime security firms.
"Congressman Hunter is concerned about the rising threat of Somali piracy and cut straight to the issues at hand. He wanted to know what challenges we face and how he could help – he wanted to understand the nuts and bolts of how we operate our business," said Mike Slattery, CEO and Co-Founder of Skye Maritime.
He added: ""There are certain trade controls that were not meant to apply to us that directly inhibit our ability to conduct maritime security operations in the Indian Ocean – we want to be able to address these issues to allow us to best support our clients, and, ultimately, U.S. foreign policy."
While the U.S. State Department officially supports the use of private maritime security companies (PMSC) by the shipping industry to protect their vessels transiting the Indian Ocean war risk region, the PMSC industry remains highly unregulated with the quality of security provider varying greatly.
In recent months Skye Maritime secured a contract with a prominent U.S. shipping company in the Indian Ocean and is preparing for further anti-piracy training and education courses that will enable them to meet the growing demand for a security company that will act with professionalism, discipline and restraint.
Skye Maritime is currently planning on expanding operations to support other clients in the U.S. and overseas. They feel that their meeting with the Congressman was a positive step towards dealing with the issues raised at the meeting.

Hi all...
My frens and I (five of us) are planning for a trip to South Korea nov-dec 2004. We know this is early as we will be going there on our own. Our trip will be at least five days (excluding travel time). Is the duration too long or just fine?
We would like to know any place of interest to visit at that time.
We would like to skip all museums and temples. However, we would like to know any place to find good food in korea. It does not have to be a tourist spot.
The main purpose we go there is to snow ski. Is it worth to stay a night there? I know the resorts there will be expensive. We might want to spend around 2 days for skiing. Too many days of skiing will tire us out.
We have no particular preference in which part of South Korea to stay. Which place in South Korea is a must to visit?
Where would we find budgeted accomodation?

Quinoa (pronounced "Keenwah") is gluten free, high in protein and known as a "super grain" for its many nutritional qualities and health benefits.
Originally a staple of the Andean region, it is now becoming increasingly popular in western society as we recognise the benefits of consuming it.
Although we cook quinoa like many other grains, it is in fact a relative of spinach, beets and chard and the part we eat is the seed.
I have to say, backpacking through South America back in my 20s, I don't specifically remember quinoa. I guess the more memorable meals were found in street stalls, such as barbecued guinea pig and insects we couldn't name!
Often in these cold months, we tend to dine on endless slow cooked meals, stews, roasts, curries, soups. Anything that can provide us comfort over winter.
I sometimes tire of these and dream of those lovely fresh meals we eat in spring and summer.
The meal below emulates this desire. It's simple, healthy, fast, full of flavour and thoroughly refreshing.
You can serve it warm or cold and it looks so bright and inviting on the plate.
I have used Simon Gault's stock in this recipe. I personally find it one of the best stocks on the market, being gluten free and actually made from real chicken.
Enjoy a taste of spring!
Peri Peri Chicken with Quinoa Salad
|Main ingredient
|Type of dish
|Cooking time
|30 min - 1 hour
|Special options
|For the chicken & rub
|2 tsp paprika
|1 tsp ginger powder
|1.5 tsp ground cardamon
|1.5 tsp garlic salt
|1.5 tsp oregano
|1 tsp cayenne pepper
|4 free range chicken breasts, skin off
|1-2 tbl Olive oil
|For the quinoa salad
|2 cups quinoa
|4 cups water with chicken stock added to taste
|5-6 tomatoes chopped
|2 handfuls fresh French beans, top and tailed
|2 large handfuls of coriander chopped
|Juice of a lemon
|Salt to season
|For the yoghurt sauce
|250ml natural yoghurt
|1 handful of mint chopped
|Juice of half a lemon
1. Mix all ingredients in the rub together and roll the chicken breasts in it. Cover and set aside in fridge till ready to cook. The longer you leave it, the more flavour will develop in the chicken.
2. Rinse the quinoa under the tap thoroughly to ensure it will not have a bitter flavour when cooked.
3. Bring the water and stock to boil in a pot and cook the quinoa as per cooking instructions on pack, usually 15-20 mins. I do it in my rice cooker, it delivers light fluffy quinoa without fail each time. Fluff with a fork once cooked. Cool or leave warm depending on method.
4. Top and tail the beans and blanch in boiling water for 2-3 mins then run under cold water. Chop up the tomatoes.
5. Heat 1-2 tbl olive oil in a fry pan and when medium hot, cook the chicken on each side for 4-5 mins, be careful not to overcook else will dry out. Rest when ready for 5 mins then slice.
6. Mix the ingredients for the yoghurt dressing together in a bowl and place in fridge till ready to serve.
7. Mix all the vegetables including the chopped coriander through the quinoa, and squeeze over the lemon juice. Place sliced chicken on top and serve with the dressing. Note to add in the coriander at the very end if serving warm else it will discolour and wilt.
Please note you can add in any other vegetables your kids enjoy and use less cayenne to make it a more family-friendly dinner. Vegetarians can dine on this sumptuous salad without the chicken, obviously exchanging the chicken stock for vege stock.

KINSTON - Mary Ruth Baker Amyette Henderson, 86, died December 15, at Magnolia Cottage Care near Kinston. She was the daughter of the late John Martin and Ruth Loftin Baker of the Southwood community. She was born May 17, 1927 and was educated at Southwood School and East Carolina Teachers College. Mary married John Edward (Jack) Amyette in 1949. Jack died in 1959 at age 31 of bulbar polio. They had two daughters and one son who Mary raised as a widow and who she loved dearly. She was employed as an accounting aide for 25 years until her second marriage in 1984 to widower, John P. Henderson, Jr., MD. Dr. Henderson died June 19, 2012. Mary's interests were gardening, traveling, needlework, reading, playing bridge and swimming. In her 70's, she taught senior citizens to swim in Leesburg, Florida for several winters. In addition to her parents and both of her husbands, Mary was preceded in death by six brothers and two sisters: John Curtis Baker, Newton D.

This week at Phil and Jim
CX Week has now come to an end and what a special week it has been! On Tuesday afternoon we hosted a Great British Tea Party for The Deputy Lord Lieutenant of Oxfordshire, the Lord Mayor of Oxford, local councillors, governors, school volunteers and PTA representatives. The children prepared a range of sweet and savoury dishes and thoroughly enjoyed welcoming their guests and listening to the speeches. Please click here for some photos. Last night marked the end of CX Week with a super performance at the Northwall Theatre, entitled 'There's No Way Of Knowing', written and directed by Mr Carter. A huge thank you to all of the staff and parents who made this happen; to Jade Laforest-Bicknell from 'Happy Little Painty Faces' for her artistic talent; and congratulations to the children for putting on such a fabulous show! Please click here for photos of the performance.

Fujifilm FinePix 6800 Zoom review
Apr 8, 2003 • Review of Fujifilm FinePix 6800 Zoom
I've had this camera for just over a year. It was exchanged by the dealer due to a lens problem. I received a new one. This one had a view finder problem. Sent it back to fuji and they replaced the view finder system. Now the lens will not come out. The warranty is over. I contacted fuji and they said they could probally give me a 20% discount on the repair. That all said the camera (when it is working) takes beautiful shots. Get the extended warranty.
View finder system,lens problems. lens cap not closing.

Acting Deputy Under Secretary of Commerce Ken Hyatt, Nine U.S. Firms to Visit Cairo
Published Thursday, 11 April 2013 11:55 | Written by Amwal Al Gahd
"This trade mission reiterates the United States' commitment to deepening our long trade relationship with Egypt and to growing the already strong connections between our respective business communities," Hyatt said. "The participating U.S. companies are eager to better understand the challenges and opportunities to doing business in Egypt, and we hope this mission helps pave the way for mutually beneficial partnerships for these companies in the future."
The following companies were selected for participation in the trade mission:
1. FirmGreen, Inc. Newport Beach, Calif.
2. Google, Inc. Mountain View, Calif.
3. Greeley and Hansen, LLC Chicago, Ill.
4. Maybe, Inc. Elkridge, Md.
5. Pioneer Solar Irvine, Calif.
6. SunEdison Belmont, Calif.
7. Rapiscan Systems, Ltd. Torrance, Calif.
8. Raytheon International, Inc. Waltham, Mass.
9. Vanguard Defense Industries, LLC Spring, Texas
The United States is Egypt's largest bilateral trading partner, with trade totaling $8.4 billion in 2012. In 2010, the United States stock of foreign direct investment in Egypt was $11.7 billion.
This trade mission advances President Obama's National Export Initiative which aims to double U.S. exports by the end of 2014, supporting economic and job growth. Participating firms will gain market insights, make industry contacts, solidify business strategies, and advance specific projects with the goal of increasing U.S. exports to Egypt.

We Track The Skater-Girl Origins Of Downtown's Sweetheart, Vashtie Kola
Vashtie Kola, DJ, Producer, Creative Consultant, Party Promoter, and Designer
There's more than a few reasons why Vashtie Kola — or Va$htie, if you will — can legitimately claim the title, "Downtown's Sweetheart". First, she's an accomplished director with videos for Common, Solange, Justin Bieber, KiD CuDi, and many others in the can. Secondly, she's a true NYC polymath having worked in creative direction for major brands and record labels, founded her own clothing line, VIOLETTE, and launched one of our favorite regular dance nights, ever, the 1992 Party. And finally — well, just look at her. If downtown were to have a sweetheart, she would look, dress, and dance exactly like Va$htie. It was our true pleasure to spend a few moments with one of our favorite people in the city and talk about how her early days in Albany influenced who she is now, the foundation of the 1992 Party, and her favorite tracks.
We've known you so long, it's like you're a part of the city. But what were you like as a kid?
"I grew up in the hood in downtown Albany. I was bullied for being 'weird' at a time when being different was not cool. The other kids told me I was 'acting white' because I liked to skateboard, wear vintage clothes, and listen to different kinds of music. Then, I received a scholarship to a prestigious all-girls high school and most of them found me, 'too black'!"
"Well, I ended up finding a crew of great friends that understood me. After high school, I spent most of my time hanging out in our downtown park (Washington Park) where misfit kids from all areas came to skate, escape their home life, or just socialize. I had an after-school job working at a Tattoo Shop (Lark Tattoo), so you can imagine I was surrounded by an eclectic mix of people. I preferred it that way; being around the same kind of people didn't appeal to me. I was interested in many different worlds..."
Is that what drew you to New York nightlife?
"I grew up drooling over it! I had an older gay brother who would trek down to the city from Albany and go to raves and hang out at the Limelight. When he'd come back he'd pour out all his stories about club kids and and play me house music, I was in awe. Naturally, I became involved in the scene after moving here although the transition was an unexpected one. What actually brought me to New York City was film school, I studied and soon after graduation started directing music videos for artists."
So then, how did you get into DJing and all the other things you do?
"As all NYC residents know, we're constantly hustling and pursuing other interests. Sometimes, you end up juggling a few gigs."
And the 1992 Party?
"Basically, in 2006, after years of attending the many parties New York City had to offer (album release parties, fashion week parties, etc.) my friend Oscar Sanchez and I became bored. We were tired of hearing top-40 hits and going to clubs and parties that made us feel…inferior. So, we had an idea; a party that played our favorite music from our favorite era (the late 80's/early 90's) with an open-door policy for anyone who wanted to attend. And so,1992 The Party was born!"
Some people might say that what you do is just a non-stop party? Do you think that's true?
"Well, it's not back-breaking work it, but has it's downsides. I'm naturally not a party girl."
Really? Then what's a good night off for you?
"Sweatpants, my couch, a couple of great friends, my Russian Blue cat Vladimir and DVR'ed episodes of Dateline, The Simpsons, Antiques Roadshow and 30 Rock."
We're right there with you.

The Celeb-Approved Skinny Jean Of The Summer
Last year, it was impossible to go anywhere without seeing a pair of black skinnies with a single-ripped knee. And this summer, the skinny of the season is a two-toned pant, made with one pair of slightly shorter jeans Franken-stitched onto the front of a longer pair in a different tone. We think this strange style is ...
