Should the topless models on Page 3 of the Sun finally get consigned to history, as a 1970s relic? We hear about the campaign to the page 3 phenomena. And Dermot O'Neill is in to answer all of your gardening queries!
Today, February 13th, is UNESCO World Radio Day — a day to "celebrate radio as a medium; to improve international co-operation between broadcasters; and to encourage major networks and community radio alike to promote access to information and freedom of expression over the airwaves".
RTÉ Radio 1 will broadcast specially recorded inserts from a range of personalities, reflecting on the power of radio. You can get a sample of the inserts here www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tE1rV5OFjs.
The TV series that followed gardener Dermot O'Neill's restoration of 'Clondeglass', his 19th century Victorian Walled Garden near the Slieve Bloom mountains, was a fantastic success. But the series had an added parallel story that wasn't intended when, at the time of the shooting, Dermot learned that he had stomach cancer…
Thankfully Dermot has made a complete recovery, and today he is here to tell us about the new six-part series of Dermot's Secret Garden that that is going to start on RTÉ One tomorrow night…
Dermot's Secret Garden is broadcast on Thursdays at 7pm on RTÉ One - for more information, visit www.rte.ie/tv/dermotssecretgarden.
Last Thursday, we premiered the five acts who will vie to represent Ireland at Eurovision 2013. The winning act will be decided on during Eurosong 2013 on The Late Late Show on Friday, February 22nd. Today, we hear again Fire, performed by Zoë Alexis Bohorquez (written by Lauren White, Niall Mooney & Willie Weeks; mentor: Niall Mooney).
Sometimes it can just be too much hassle to head out to the theatre, an art gallery or an exhibition. You have to find parking, the bus stop is too far away from the venue - or you are just hooked on the latest gripping storyline in Fair City!
Excuses, excuses, excuses... well a group from Dunlavin, Co. Wicklow have come up with a novel way of keeping in touch with the arts. They all travel together on the Dunlavin Culture Bus, and last week they headed up to Dublin to check out at the Natural History Museum and the latest IMMA exhibition (at the NCH). Brenda caught the bus to find out more about the Wicklow culture vultures!
In 1970, a British institution - the topless Page 3 girl - first appeared in the Sun newspaper. Her name was Stefanie Rahn, and she was pictured semi-nude on Page 3 on November 17, 1970, just over 42 years ago.
Needless to say, the intervening four decades have seen another massive cultural shift. And many people see the whole page 3 phenomenon as completely anachronistic, inappropriate and definitely not in keeping with the times.
Well, those people will have been heartened by the news today that Rupert Murdoch, who owns the Sun newspaper, might actually feel the same way. He has dropped a major hint that the topless Page 3 model might be a thing of the past!
Laura is part of the "No More Page 3" campaign, and she joins Derek on the line today from London... If you'd like to find out more information about the campaign, then you can visit their Facebook page: www.facebook.com/NoMorePage3.

Box Score
UND 5-NIU 8 Box Score
UND 2-NIU 10 Box Score
DEKALB, Ill. - The Northern Illinois University softball got back on the winning track by sweeping its doubleheader with North Dakota at Mary M. Bell Field Wednesday.
The Huskies (13-16, 1-3) posted an 8-5 victory in the first game, while scoring a 10-2 win in five innings in game two. NIU got back on track pounding out 26 hits on the after, 13 in each game. Shelby Miller (Ottawa, Kan./Ottawa) and Emily Naegele (Oak Forest, Ill./Oak Forest) led the way for the Huskies with Miller going 4-for-6 with two RBIs and three runs scored, while Naegele 5-for-6 with four RBIs and three runs scored.
"We came out attacking," said NIU head coach Christina Sutcliffe. "That was a goal of ours, to get our offense back going. We just played a lot more relaxed. We're okay playing at home now."
NIU's pitching staff was equally impressive from the circle as both Rebecca Rupard (Normal, Ill./Normal West) and Jessica Sturm (Wichita, Kan./Goddard) picked up complete game victories. Both pitchers overcame rough beginnings to their outings.
"Jess and Becca settled in," Sutcliffe said of the Huskie pitching staff. "Becca had a really rough three innings or so and was able to settle in from there. Jess had the rough first and was able to make a difference and keep people off balance and expand the zone.
"When you get teams that are swinging at a lot of stuff, you have to learn how to expand the zone and get them to chance pitches."
North Dakota (3-20) jumped out to an early 4-0 lead with a pair of runs in the second and third innings. NIU pulled to within a run with three runs in the bottom of the third. After back-to-back one-out walks, Naegele hit a bases clearing triple to drive in the two runners and cut the deficit in half. An RBI single by Sturm plated Naegele and pulled NIU to within a run.
After UND scored a run in the top of the fourth, the Huskies took the lead with another three-run inning in the bottom of the fifth. Sturm knocked in a pair on a single, and later scored on a sacrifice fly to give NIU a 6-5 lead.
NIU added some insurance in the bottom of the sixth with a solo homer by Rupard that bounced off the scoreboard in left and a RBI single by Naegele.
The Huskies fell behind 2-0 in the first inning of game two when North Dakota scored a pair of runs in the first inning. However, NIU scored in each of the next five innings and Sturm settled down.
NIU tied the game with a run in the first and another in the second before taking the lead with two runs in the third. The Huskies broke the game wide open in the bottom of the fourth, plating five runs in the inning.
Nicole Gremillion (Missouri City, Texas/Elkins) began the rally with a two-run triple to right centerfield. RBI singles by Rupard, Kayti Grable (Santee, Calif./Santana) and Miller accounted for the other three runs.
Kristyn Barrett's (Monticello, Ill./Monticello) RBI double drove in Kali Kossakowski (Elgin, Ill./St. Edward) for the game-winning run.
The Huskies return to the diamond Saturday when NIU plays host to Western Michigan at Mary M. Bell Field. First pitch is set 2 p.m. and fans can follow all the action live via Gametracker on NIUHuskies.com or they can watch it live on NIUTube. Monthly subscriptions are $6.95 with a yearly subscription at $49.95.

- Elegant tulip-shaped shade holder
- Compatible with 2-1/4" fitter shades
- Assembled in the USA of domestic and imported parts
The Sherwood's backplate is fairly narrow at its center, which is 3-5/8" wide and not suitable for some large junction boxes.

The cinema is back for 3eed
August 18, 2012 2 Comments
The cinema is back this 3eed, after a short hiatus during Ramadan's last 10 days. KNCC are showing a bunch of interesting movies, like the Dark Knight Rises, The Expendables 2, and Brave. They're also showing few Indian and Arabic movies if you're interested in that.
Make sure you book early, seats tend to sell very quickly; going to the movies is still one of the main activities people do during 3eed in Kuwait.

Zooey Deschanel doesn't believe in Daisy Dukes. The "New Girl" star revealed to Lucky magazine that she would never wear the once famous denim short shorts. Us Weekly got an excerpt of her interview on Jan. 30.
The actress says that she's sick of Daisy Duke shorts. She doesn't recommend anyone over the age of 30 to wear them. That is one trend that the actress wants to stay away from.
Deschanel told the fashion magazine, "I like what I like. It has nothing to do with trends or being a slave to fashion. Sometimes things will be in style and they're classic and look great," the New Girl star, 34, says, and then adds, "I think it's important to recognize when fashion has gone to a place that isn't cute."
What is cute according to Zooey? She says that Audrey Hepburn and Jack Onassis always had a classic style. She liked that they both played up their assets with their clothing.
Zooey Deschanel says that fashion should be a form of self-expression. She added, "Fashion is a way of communicating. You're saying, 'Hi world! How are you? This is me today. Take me or leave me!"

Men often get a bum wrap when it comes to clothing stores. A hidden rack at the back of a shop dedicated to menswear was once all one could find for a beau. That is, until boys around the world decided to open stores for themselves. One such boy is Joel Ferdinandus, owner of men's store Lokal Heroz in Rotterdam. Here men can dress up, try out the latest low rider, pick up some tools, view local art and grab a complimentary coffee near the heart of the city's shopping district, Laurenskerk.
To avoid the chore of shopping, the store has made their retail experience into one long party with Lokal Heroz holding events every first Friday of the month. These parties include everything from live music to spoken word sessions, performance art and low-rider gatherings, while drinks, food and conversation dance about. All you have to do is sign up on their website to find out which Friday is for you. And, if that's not enough to entice you, then having a play on the store's coveted Commodore 64 surely will. Let the games begin, lads.

Denise Alexander, is a beloved veteran of network television and daytime soap operas. She appeared on the soap operas "Days of Our Lives," "Another World," and "Sunset Beach." But her most recognizable role is Dr. Lesley Webber in "General Hospital" where she still shows up once in a while.
Denise has appeared in two web series by creator Steve Silverman, "Pretty," where she plays Louise Fitzpatrick, and "The Inn," where she plays Lola.
We got a chance to chat with Denise about working in web series, and her very diverse roles as Louise and Lola. Here is some of what she had to say.
Flo DiBona: You have worked for years in television and are beloved for your role as Dr Lesley Webber in "General Hospital." As an actress what are the biggest differences working in a web series versus a network soap opera aside from the bigger budgets and crews?
Denise Alexander: I can only speak from a very limited perspective. I have been blessed to work with Steve Silverman but I've only worked with him on web series so I don't know how much of my experience is typical. Certainly working on "General Hospital" was not typical of working on every soap opera so I realize I have a limited perspective. There is a great sense of pioneering that is involved with working in web series right now. It is so individual. There is great freedom. I find no difference in the level of commitment and dedication from the people involved. I find brilliantly talented people in both arenas. I find no difference in the technical aspects, such things as sheets, scheduling, and scripts, figuring out wardrobes, trying to get a grasp on the character from the aspects of makeup and hair, which is always so helpful. It's the same work. But there's a feeling of being under the radar because you are not working under the all seeing eye of the network or a sponsor. So there might be a little bit more delicious sense of freedom to it.
FD: Can you tell us a little about the character Louise Fitzpatrick in "Pretty," and what it was like playing her?
DA: I loved Louise. When Steve first told me about "Pretty," and showed me some of the things he'd written for it, I thought, "Okay, it's not my kind of thing, but I bet there's an audience out there for it. I just don't get it." So the first season I didn't have anything to do with "Pretty." Then I started watching some of what they'd done and I thought, "Oh that's really kind of nifty." He contacted me about the second season and he told me he had written the character of Louise for me. He had written just a little cameo where you didn't have to take a lot of time and I could come in and just have a little fun. When I first got there I remember feeling very much out of my comfort zone I didn't know that kind of comedy. I'd never played anything quite like it. It was a little concerning at first, but it was the best fun ever. I just wanted to come back for three more weeks. That was fun. Somewhere in the beginning, trying to find just the costume, I had the sense that Louise, who is the head of the pageant, loves pageants, breathes pageants. Ah, she was once in the pageants. I had been watching "Toddlers and Tiaras" in horror, unable to take my eyes away from it. I had seen this array of women who were running these pageants, and they were running them as their babies, as their fiefdoms, as if they were the queen of everything. They were very often Southern so that gave me that. Often, they were dressed up. I wanted to dress Louise up as if she was still competing. There wasn't time for that so from that I went into my own closet and found draping, flowing things in black. I thought if she can't be bright bubblegum pink then she's going to be dressed in black and she's going to have jewels. Out of that came the hairdo and from that came the tiara. It just unfolded almost organically. That was great fun. But then it was over. It was just two or three days. Fortunately there was yet another season. I could come back! Then it was, "Get me the biggest tiara. I need a taller tiara!" I had the best time! It was very freeing. What fun to do Louise. When do you get to do anything like this? Finding her, having the courage to go as far as she could go, working with the people I worked with, I had a great time. I love Louise. She's delicious. I adore her.
FD: In "The Inn," Lola is a very mysterious character who seems to know much more than she is telling. What was it like playing Lola and filming most of your scenes in a working Los Angeles coffee shop?
DA: Oh that was fun. What a great location that was. I remember reading the script and saying, "So she's from New York." I got her voice when I started trying to read what Steve sent me out loud and it became a different voice. I thought, "Oh that was interesting." It was the first time that happened. I just got a sense of Lola being a straightforward, no-nonsense, doesn't take any crap, calls them like she see them character which you find a lot in New York. It's not an accent I'm comfortable doing at all, it's not an accent I think I can do. It was a very interesting thing to experience Lola finding me. I got to choose how she dressed. Louise and Lola are both dressed out of my closet. I like her relationships. I think Lola is the most interesting character. Lola can interact with everybody, she has an opinion about everything, nobody is righter than she is, nobody is smarter than she is as far as she's concerned. I love her!
FD: "Pretty," and "The Inn," are two very different flavors of web series, one is a comedy and the other is a thriller. Was one more challenging than the other?
DA: Physically, "Pretty," was shot in a church hall and private home in the Burbank area. "The Inn," was shot in a real diner, very traditional, very much looking the era it was built. It necessitated a long cab ride for me. "The Inn" was also shot in Ventura County on a private property so it felt a little more sophisticated location-wise. Very different feeling. Louise was a more peripheral character in "Pretty" because "Pretty" had been set so much in the first season. Louise came in more as a cameo role that you would normally come in and do if you were a person of a certain level of professional accomplishment. But you do it because it is so much fun and you can drop in and do it in a day or two and there's something really kind of delightful that you wouldn't get to do in your normal work life. Lola is much more integral. It's a very small cast of characters in "The Inn" so she's more integral, so that was different. Imagine for an actor that you got to do both of those, what a treat, what a gift!
FD: Are you scheduled to do more web series or are you interested in doing more?
DA: I like the concept. I'm a member of a troupe that belongs to Steve Silverman. That's my comfort zone. I certainly am open for it conceptually.
FD: Denise thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts with our readers. Is there anything you would like to say to our readers and your fans?
DA: I would like to find a way to express the gratitude that I have for everyone who appreciates the work that we all do and that's very personally true for me. I have always done it for the joy of doing it and for the connection with the audience. I never knew until the Internet gave it to me, the connection to the audience that I have had over the past couple of years. It is breathtaking. It has brought me to tears and it has opened my eyes and my heart to the deepness, the depth of the connection between the audience and the performer in a way that was never that available to me. I just want to say thank you with all my heart you all will never know the blessings that you have brought into my life.

Top psychologist to hold workshop
by Foundation of Light
Premier League sports psychologist to host showcase event.
Sports Psychologist Dan Abrahams, who has recently worked with QPR and West Ham's Carlton Cole, will be taking part in the Foundation of Light's 'Coaching the Coaches' clinic.
Held at Sunderland's Academy of Light training headquarters, participants will have the opportunity to learn about some of the techniques that have made Dan a leader in the field of sports psychology.
Speaking ahead of the event, Dan said: "I'm really looking forward to meeting with coaches from the North East, learning about the challenges that they face with their players and suggesting techniques to help overcome them.
"Everything that I'll be covering is tried and tested, some of it at the very top level of football, so participants can be sure that they will be taking away something useful."
Foundation of Light's Head of Football Development Jamie Wright added: "Sports Psychology is often overlooked in grassroots football and this is a great opportunity for coaches of all levels to learn how to get inside the minds of their players to bring the best out of them."
Dan will also be covering techniques covered in his book 'Soccer Tough: Simple Football Psychology Techniques to Improve Your Game'.
The Foundation of Light's Football Coaching Department offers player pathways from in-school coaching and after-school clubs, through to Elite clubs, development centres and Sunderland AFC's Academy.
The 'Coaching the Coaches' initiative aims to grant grassroots coaches access to some of the country's top coaching talent to help them improve their players' skills and enjoyment of football.
Places for the course, which takes place from 6.30 - 8.30 on Friday 25 January, are available for just £5 and can be booked by contacting Rhys Atchison on 0191 551 5077 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

Fun facts about Pensacola Bay Area historyPensacola History
Map it
Spanish sailor Don Tristan de Luna arrived in Pensacola on Aug. 15, 1559, establishing the first European settlement in the United States. One month later, a hurricane destroyed supplies, eventually causing the Spanish to flee the area.
In 1698, Fort San Carlos de Austria became the first permanent settlement in Northwest Florida. Remains of the fort can be found at Naval Air Station Pensacola.
Having been ruled by Spain, France, Britain, the Confederacy and the United States, Pensacola has earned the nickname "City of Five Flags."
Emmanuel Point II is the second-oldest shipwreck in the country. Discovered in 2007 by University of West Florida archaeology students, the ship belonged to Spanish sailor Don Tristan de Luna's expedition, dating back to 1559.
The first Catholic Mass in the United States was held on Pensacola Beach shortly after the sailors arrived in August 1559.
Pensacola was the original capital of Florida, and it was here that Gen. Andrew Jackson changed flags with Spanish Governor Jose Callava, bringing West Florida under the control of the United States.

WILMINGTON | A man was robbed of a cellphone in downtown Wilmington on Saturday evening, but was able to fire two shots at the suspects as they fled, dispatch officials said.
The shots missed and the suspects fled on foot on Castle Street, officials said.
Wilmington police were using dogs to search for the suspects, described as in their late teens and early 20s.

What are the pros? Helps my girls

I Planted this next to my semi shady chicken coop. The shade controls the growth and the plant controls worms and parasites in chickens.

What are the pros? Drought tolerant, Aromatic
What are the cons? Weed from hell
When I finally identified the weed that had taken over my lawn and most of one of my flower beds, I was interested to find out that it was also a medicinal herb used since ancient times. However, mugwort is not interesting or useful enough to justify planting it in any garden other than that of your worst enemy's. It is incredibly invasive--even in my light sandy soil it is a real bear to pull up, because the brittle, long underground roots extend several feet in every direction and must be thoroughly removed to prevent them giving rise to new plants. 3 years' worth of attempts to thoroughly remove this weed by hand pulling have only served to (barely) keep it from overtaking the entire yard. I also made the poor choice of planting a Chrysanthemum 'Cambodian Queen' in the same bed near where it occurs...it is extremely difficult to tell it apart from the emerging Chrysanthemum offshoots when I am weeding, as the leaves are very, very similar. What a pain.

What are the pros? well, you can't kill it
What are the cons? pretty much everything else
Herb my fanny. More like invasive species. Mugwort is a weed. As in, plant this in your garden and watch it invade the root systems of your beautiful vegetables, shrubs, perennials, and what have you. I don't think it's fair to sell this stuff without a warning, as it will take dose after dose of roundup to eliminate it from your garden once it is established. I am a professional horticulturalist, and I have had to dig up entire perennial beds because the roots from a mugwort plant crept 30 feet through two stone walls and into a client's perennial bed. We have spent 4 years trying to eradicate it since the client first called us. Leave one piece of the root--one teeny, tiny piece--and the entire plant grows back. If you want to grow it in a pot, fine, just don't let it go to seed. And if you must put it in a bed, at least warn your neighbors so they have time to pave their entire property, because that's the only thing I can think of that will keep it at bay.

Strip off the top third of the leaves, crush and grind them with your hands, grind into the poison oak, about 3 days of applications for medium cases.

What are the pros? Easy to grow, Huge plant
This was very easy to grow. This is a big plant so make sure you pick a good size area for it. I cultivated this stuff all summer and still going strong. I bet you could grow in any type soil. I grew mine in a nasty new area with a lot of clay and it is gigantic.

Hotel Pan Pacific Nirwana Bali Resort was one of the hotels hosting of the contestants of the Miss World 2013. A total of 129 contestants of the Miss World 2013 made the resort with golf course and spa the first hotel in Indonesia hosting in the process of quarantine prior to the final session in Nusa Dua. Aside from the contestants from all parts of the world, the organizers, crew and media colleagues also stayed at the hotel. The contestants were greeted by friendly Balinese rindik music played by the artists of nature. Various cultural activities were performed in the Grand Ballroom, like learning to dance the traditional dance of Indonesian and making art performances. Meanwhile, more than 120 participants also joined in the golf tournament.
The contestants also made a photo shooting and filming in the resort area with the backdrop of tropical gardens, golf course, open sea view of the Indian Ocean and the majestic sunset behind the Tanah Lot Temple. Of course, staying in the resort nestled in quiet, natural and having contemporary Balinese style architecture as well as the friendly service extended by employees could certainly create unforgettable memories. "Introducing Balinese culture is our pride to provide an enjoyable experience for the Miss World. Hopefully, it could become the part of an unforgettable trip while in Indonesia," said General Manager Ivan Casadevall. (BTN/015)

September 22, 2009
More than 400 foster-care students at the Twin Rivers Unified School District in Sacramento will be able to receive dental care thanks to a new "Virtual Dental Home" system created by Dr. Paul Glassman, professor of dental practice and the Pacific Center for Special Care at the University of the Pacific, Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry.
The new system uses telemedicine technology to bring dental care into community settings such as the Twin Rivers School District. Through the Virtual Dental Home, people in underserved communities are able to receive preventive and simple therapeutic services in community settings where they live or receive educational, social or general health services. The Virtual Dental Home utilizes the latest technology to link practitioners in the community with dentists at remote office sites.
The groundbreaking project, which has been supported by the California Dental Association Foundation, has received $295,000 from the California HealthCare Foundation and $100,000 from the Verizon Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Verizon, as well as funding from several other organizations. It is designed to help address the access-to-care crisis in California by connecting patients with critical dental services.
"The collaboration between the California HealthCare Foundation, the Verizon Foundation, Twin Rivers USD, the California Dental Association Foundation and University of the Pacific, Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry demonstrates that when partnerships are formed we can still do great things in and for our communities even during times of unprecedented budgetary constraints," said State Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg. To support the effort, Steinberg recently participated in a Sept. 21 demonstration of the system at the Twin Rivers School District offices, one of the sites in California where examinations will take place.
Senator Steinberg represents Senate District 6, which includes the City of Sacramento, parts of Elk Grove, Citrus Heights and Rancho Cordova.
"This new care delivery model provides a much-needed community-based "virtual dental home" for the state's most vulnerable people, who will access dental services in their own communities. It also will remove some of the barriers to receiving care in a traditional dental office setting," said Glassman, project director for the program. "This system allows dental hygienists and assistants working in community sites to collaborate with dentists working in dental clinics and offices to optimize oral health for underserved people."
"The Virtual Dental Home is an innovative example of one of the many ways technology can improve the delivery of health care services," added Tim McCallion, Verizon West Region president. "Verizon is proud to partner with the School of Dentistry, the California Dental Association Foundation and the California Healthcare Foundation to bring this project to the community."
The four-year pilot project will expand and improve access to dental services for people by giving participating dentists the technological capability to examine patients remotely with help from dental hygienists and dental assistants in underserved communities.
Equipped with the latest portable imaging equipment, community-based oral-health professionals collect electronic dental records such as X-rays, photographs and dental and medical histories, and upload the information to a secure website where they are reviewed by a collaborating dentist. The dentist reviews the patient's information and creates a tentative dental treatment plan. After the remote examinations, dental hygienists and dental assistants will perform preventive procedures and temporary restorations in the community and track and refer those people who need to be seen in the dental office.
"This pilot project helps dentists improve the oral health of all Californians," said Dr. Lindsey Robinson, chair of the CDA Foundation board of directors. "Thanks to the generous grants from the California Health Care Foundation and Verizon, we will be able to bring dentistry into underserved communities."
The pilot project will operate at 15 community locations across California in Los Angeles, the Bay Area, the Central Valley and northeastern California.
Planning and start-up activities during the first year will include the development of necessary protocols, data collection and evaluation systems, and a field test at six community locations. Nine more community locations will be added during the second year. The viability of the project will be evaluated at the end of the fourth year.

How should I understand the compactness of $A_{\mathbb{K}}^1/\mathbb{K}^{\times}$ in classical non-idelic language? I suppose the notations are standard, but just for completeness,
- $K$ is a global field;
- $A_{\mathbb{K}}$ is the adele ring;
- $A_{\mathbb{K}}^1$ is the kernel of the content map, defined on the idele ring by multiplying the normalized absolute values at each place.
- $K^{\times}$ embeds into $A_{\mathbb{K}}^1$ diagonally.
Motivation: I am trying to compare the idelic proof in Cassels-Frohlich to the classical proof involving Minkowski bound. I have been able to translate part of the story, e.g. the lemma on p.66 of Cassels-Frohlich seems to be an analogue of Minkowski's convex body theorem. However, the crux of the idelic proof seems to be the compactness of the group mentioned above, and I have been unable to see what it corresponds to in the classical case.

BBC Formula 1 Reporter Lee McKenzie has World Horse Welfare under starters orders as she launches this year's Rehome a Horse month.
The charity is appealing to members of the public to consider rehoming one of their horses as four of the UK Rescue and Rehoming Centres are full to bursting point which means they're struggling to find space for horses which desperately need help.
World Horse Welfare Deputy Chief Executive Tony Tyler said: "We need to rehome some of our current residents as soon as possible as we are getting dangerously near to full capacity. Part of the reason for this has been our 16 Field Officers are more frequently dealing with cases involving large groups of horses. We have already taken in 43 horses into our farms this year but there are so many horses in need of our help that realistically we are reaching a position where we may have to consider turning some away."
Across the UK horses have been suffering as horse owners find themselves under pressure from the economic downturn, rising costs of feed and the depressed market for horse sales.
World Horse Welfare are constantly relying on the help of other charities to deal with multiple cases and most of these are also full to bursting point. Tony Tyler goes on to say: "We would obviously try and take as many horses needing our help as possible into the centres but at the moment we are so full that we cannot always help all the horses that we would like to. We're seeing an increasing demand to rescue more horses which is due to several factors including the economic climate."
During their Rehome a Horse month in March World Horse Welfare is urgently appealing to potential rehomers who believe they could offer a home to one of their rescue horses or ponies which are ready to be rehomed. Lee McKenzie says: "I'm proud to support World Horse Welfare's Rehome a Horse month. Many of you wouldn't think twice about rehoming a cat or a dog, and you can do the same for horses. Taking on one of these lovely animals means you're not only helping them, but you're also helping other horses as it creates more space at the charity's farms which means they in turn can take on neglected, abused welfare cases."
Lee goes on to explain why she supports World Horse Welfare: "I would really urge people to get involved with World Horse Welfare. I've had horses all my life and naively I thought that welfare cases only happened abroad and not on our own shores so it was a big shock to me. The more I know about the charity the more I enjoy it and the more I think they do fantastic work. Anyone should come along, take a look, and even take a horse home with them. It would just make such a huge, huge difference to other horses who are waiting to come into the charity's farms."
There are many benefits of rehoming one of our horses compared to buying, which include: -
· You know exactly what you are getting - all of our horses are fully MOT's and come with health records, microchip and passport. You also get a frank and fair assessment of the ability and temperament of the horse.
· Rehoming one horse helps another – When you take in a rescue horse, you help other horses by making space at our Rescue and Rehoming Centres.
· Feel-good factor of transforming the life of a horse – rehoming one of our horses is an immensely rewarding experience.
· Our horses come with a safety net – We rehome a horse for life but in uncertain times it is reassuring to know that you can return the horse to us if your circumstances change or if your child outgrows it.
· A lifetime of advice and support – When you rehome one of our horses you have the full breadth of our 85 years of horse experience at your disposal.

All of the horses and ponies available for rehoming can be viewed on the World Horse Welfare website at www.worldhorsewelfare.org/rehoming

We started out a couple articles ago with the theme of HIV as a party virus. By this we mean that HIV likes to hang out with all sorts of other disease causing viruses, bacteria and other organisms.
Because HIV is sexually-transmitted, we should not be surprised that HIV patients often have other sexually transmitted infections. But sometimes, the relationships are even greater. This means that while we are managing HIV, we also have to be checking to see if any of its "friends" have come along for the "party" so we can deal with them appropriately. HIV's friends can cause many problems, for example, we have discussed how Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C viruses can cause cirrhosis and liver cancer: bad news!
What is HPV?
One of HIV's favorite party companions is the Human Papilloma Virus, often abbreviated HPV. There are lots of different strains of HPV and they are commonly found in both men and women. Most strains of HPV don't cause any serious problems, but a few strains do cause disease. A couple strains are known to be responsible for causing cervical cancer and also cancer of the anus. A couple of different strains cause genital warts. Genital warts look like crusty clusters that can appear on the penis, the labia, vulva or anus.
Sometimes they can get quite large looking like miniature clusters of grapes, or even having a cauliflower-like appearance. Not surprisingly, this virus that causes problems in the anal/genital area is mainly sexually transmitted. It also may be the cause of other types of cancers in different parts of the body.
When HIV and HPV party together, this usually means trouble. Since both viruses are sexually transmitted, they are commonly found together. But because HIV impairs the immune system, the body can't fight off the dangerous strains of HPV as easily. So while cervical cancer, anal cancer and genital warts occur in the general population, they are all more common in HIV infected persons, and often are worse in persons with advanced HIV disease.
There is a test that can detect whether a person is infected with HPV and whether than strain is dangerous or not. Your doctor can do this test.
Cervical cancer
Early in the HIV epidemic in the US (1980's) we didn't know a lot about how HIV affected women. Most cancers take years to develop, and since there weren't effective treatments for HIV, people died from HIV before cancers could develop.
Also, many doctors only viewed HIV as a disease of white gay men and simply weren't looking for HIV infection in women, especially black women. It took quite a while for the link between HIV infection and cervical cancer to be worked out, and many women likely died of cervical cancer without ever knowing they were HIV-infected. In 1993, the presence of cervical cancer in a woman with HIV-infection was considered a diagnosis of AIDS, the advanced stage of HIV-infection.
Years ago, a procedure was developed designed to detect cervical cancer early so that it could be treated before progressing to a more dangerous form of cancer. This test, called a Pap smear involves collecting cells from the opening of the cervix using a special swab. The cells are spread onto a slide and viewed under a microscope by a technician or medical provider trained to recognize abnormal cells. If abnormal cells are detected, this could be a sign that there are changes taking place in the cervix that could lead to cancer. A medical provider can then view the cervix using a special instrument (a colposcope) to see if there are cancerous areas, and then treat them. By having regular Pap smears in women, medical providers could detect cancers early and treat them. This procedure has saved millions of women's lives and proven to be an effective screening method.
Screening in HIV-infected patients
Because HIV changes the immune system, cancer could develop earlier and more aggressively than in women without HIV-infection. Women newly diagnosed with HIV should receive a Pap smear soon after the diagnosis and then, about 6 months later. After the first year, they should receive a pap smear every year.

This week's WWE Raw Supershow did a 3.4 cable rating off hours of 3.38 and 3.43 with an average viewing audience of 4,963,000 viewers on the USA Network.
not bad at all
that's alot better then before
Because viewers found out that John Laurinaitis was 'fired' and wanted to enjoy a show without him. Lo, and behold he was in the 'main event' the next night as his final 'hurrah'. with none other than the face of the WWE himself.
I dearly hope that WWE comes to it's senses and eliminates Johnny from TV permanently. His bland character was cool for a while(at least for me) but now it's beyond overkill and he needs to be gone forever.
To be fair that theory doesn't follow because the 2nd hour was rated higher than 1st
Part of the bump is the novelty of being 3 hours. It's WWE's latest short-fix stunt for the ratings, that will only lead to an even deeper drop in a few months.
Laurinaitis is why ratings suck.
Refreshing Raws are good for business
Laurinitis is not "why" ratings have been down. He's a symptom of what's wrong with the show. It's not one, single thing. It's a collection of things that make for a lackluster, predictable and otherwise, uninteresting program. The show will get better when and if they realize that they're not going to find their future by digging into a ten-year-old bag of tricks.
Does anyone notice as the weeks go by RAW ratings are getting higher? We're almost at 5 million views! Not bad!

Body found in search for missing backpacker
A body has been found in the search for missing British backpacker Gareth Huntley, but authorities have yet to confirm the identity.PT0M0S 620 349
A body thought to be that of Gareth Huntley, the British backpacker missing for over a week on Tioman Island in Malaysia, has been discovered just metres behind the cabins in which the search party had been staying.
The body was found in a river by searchers at around 1.30pm on Wednesday as they returned to their base camp, according to local reports.
The yet-unidentified corpse was found facing upwards, wearing shorts, shoes and socks, but without a shirt, and the face was unrecognisable due to decomposition, reported the Star Online.

The part of the river in which the body was found is located within the Juara Turtle Project on the Malaysian island, at which Mr Huntley had been volunteering when he went missing on May 27.
"We found a body this morning but we have not verified whether it is the missing person or someone else," Morni Mamat, deputy director of the Pahang state fire and rescue department, told AFP.
Mr Morni said a forensics team was heading to the popular tropical resort island to examine the body.

"We will probably know today whether it is him," he said.
Gareth Huntley, a British accountant, had been volunteering at the turtle conservation project as part of a sabbatical from his job in London.
He has not been seen since he started a trek to a waterfall on the island, off the south-eastern coast of the country's mainland, last Tuesday morning.
Colleagues from the turtle conservation project raised the alarm when he failed to return.
The slow pace of the initial search and rescue effort was criticised by friends and relatives.
However, the operation appeared to step up a gear on Sunday after Hishammuddin Hussein, Malaysia's defence minister, vowed that his country would "do everything in our power" to find Mr Huntley.
By Monday morning around 70 people were engaged in the day's searches including canine teams, army commandos and fire rescue workers.
A helicopter had also been deployed to scan the forest for any sign of Mr Huntley.
A Foreign Office spokesman said: "Malaysian police have confirmed that a body has been found on Tioman island in Malaysia.
"Foreign Office consular staff on the ground are continuing to work closely with the Malaysian authorities and are investigating with them as a matter of urgency.
"We continue to provide support to the family of Gareth Huntley at this very difficult time."

'Gutsy' Performance Sends Tigers To V8 Silver, 3rd-Place Finish At NCAAs
Princeton, which went 9-1 in the regular season and won its 13th Ivy League title by open water two weeks ago, made a hard charge out of Lane 5 in its final race together and led the field at both the 500 and 1000 marks.
California, which placed second to Ohio State in the team championship competition, made its big move in the third split, and it would be a golden one. The Bears turned a 2.8-second deficit into the slimmest of leads, and it would hold off Princeton in a winning time of 6:21.43."It was an incredible race," von Kienbusch recipient Heidi Robbins said. "To set the pace for the field was truly awesome. Of course we go out there to win with everything that we have, but I think we put it all out there with a lot of guts. I am proud of how we raced."
The Tigers were not about to give the second spot up, despite late pushes from both Ohio State and Virginia. Princeton finished in the silver position in 6:22.60, while Ohio State finished third in 6:23.20.
"It was an amazing race," said a thrilled head coach Lori Dauphiny afterwards. "They led the pace, and it was a very courageous performance. They really performed when it counted. In general, it was just an awesome finish."
The second-place finish in the NCAA grand final is an incredible accomplishment for Princeton. While both the 2006 and 2011 varsity eights won gold, only one other Tiger V8 (2005) finished second overall.
The victory also moved Princeton to third place in the team standings with 112 points, which matches the program's second-best team finish at the NCAA Championships. The Tigers finished second in the inaugural event in 1997, but their best finishes since then were third-place ones in both 2006 and 2010.
Now you can add 2013 to that list.
"I give all of our rowers so much credit for this," Dauphiny said. "I told them that it takes all of them to achieve this, and I hope the recognize that."
The second varsity made a brilliant final sprint to qualify for the grand final Saturday afternoon, but all of that expended energy may have been costly during Sunday's grand final. Princeton placed sixth in 6:33.46, though simply by qualifying for the final, it managed to add 34 points to the team total.
Ohio State was clearly the strongest boat in the field, and it led by more than two seconds at the midway point of the race. Both California and Brown tried to make a move, but the Buckeyes comfortably held both off. Princeton was in a battle with both USC and Yale, but the Tigers didn't have enough in the final sprint to move past either boat.
The varsity four got the morning started successfully, overcoming a tough opening split to move past three boats and claim second place in the petite final. California led after the opening split by about 1.5 seconds, and it kept building on that advantage until an open water victory in 7:14.83.
Princeton, however, was in comeback mode after sitting fifth after 500 meters. The Tigers' second split was better than any outside of California, and they moved from fifth to second at that point. Princeton built on that lead in the third split, and then withstood a hard charge from Notre Dame to hold second in 7:19.71.
"Both the second varsity and the fours did their best today," Dauphiny said. "I'm proud of the effort they put in today and this whole season."
There were members of the Class of 2013 in each of the three boats, and that class will graduate Tuesday with Top-4 finishes in every NCAA Championship regatta during their careers. They also won two Ivy League championships, three team titles at Ivies/Eastern Sprints, and both Hamrick and Robbins were in the 2011 NCAA champion varsity eight.
"This senior class is tremendous," Robbins said. "There was leadership across all the boats and a dynamic group of personalities. Each brought something new to the boats, and it was the combination that was powerful. I will miss tremendously this team which has meant so much to me."
"This class is exceptional," Dauphiny said. "This is really nice ending for them, and they worked so hard for this. They will be greatly missed."

Killer Mike, a hip-hop veteran who's been making music for over 10 years now, released a new collaborative record with fellow rapper El-P, entitled Run the Jewels, this past July on Fool's Gold Records. The rapper made his debut all the way back in 2000 on the Outkast album, Stankonia. Since then, Killer Mike has collaborated with numerous rappers, including Jay-Z. He has also put out six studio albums as a solo artist, with the most recent, R.A.P. Music, released in 2012.
According to a review on NME, Killer Mike and El-P's latest offering, the aforementioned Run the Jewels, rivals Jay-Z and Kanye West's Watch the Throne as "the hip-hop collaboration of the decade." Pitchfork's review of the album states that this collaboration "makes a kind of retroactive sense going back to their early 2000s solo debuts." The review cites the similarities between Killer Mike's debut, Monster, and El-P's debut, Fantastic Damage, as well as their similarities in style and recent collaborations.
The hip-hop duo, aptly named Run the Jewels, just wrapped up their US tour two weeks ago at New York City's Webster Hall. Rolling Stone's review of the show paints the duo in a very positive light: "Through the evening's sharp edges...it was refreshing to see two stalwart rappers act so positive." Run the Jewels is available for free download via Fool's Gold Records.
Tune in to this week's episode of Tha Fixx Radio, SXSWfm's hip-hop specialty show hour, to hear tracks by Killer Mike and more SXSW hip-hop artists. The show airs every Wednesday at 6am, 12pm, & 6pm CDT; Thursdays at 12am CDT; and Saturdays at 10pm CDT. You can our programming schedule to your Google Calendar here.

Miami Marlins: LHP Mike Dunn demoted and other postscripts from ugly loss
A few postscripts from Thursday's 14-7 loss to the Giants:
** The Marlins for the second time this season optioned left-hander Mike Dunn to Triple-A New Orleans. Dunn on Thursday gave up four runs on three hits with two walks and three strikeouts in one inning of work. No corresponding move yet, but presumably Daniel Jennings will be rejoining the club.
"Dunn, I can't figure it out," manager Ozzie Guillen said. "This kid has a good arm. His breaking ball is not working. His location is not the greatest. That's the reason [left-hander Jaime] Moyer is still pitching. That arm is gold, but can throw 95 and you don't throw it over the plate and your breaking ball is not working, you're going to get hit. At the big league level they're going to take advantage of you."
** The two bullpens on Thursday combined to allow 13 runs (11 earned) on 12 hits in 6 1/3 innings for a collective 15.63 ERA.
** In case you're curious, 3 hours, 54 minutes is not the Marlins' record for a nine inning game. On July 27, 1996, the Marlins and Padres needed 4:10 to play nine innings. The Padres won 20-12.
** Hanley Ramirez fouled a ball off his leg in his first at-bat. He stayed in the game until the eighth inning. Guillen expects him to play Friday.
** The top third of the Giants' order — Gregor Blanco, Brandon Crawford and Melky Cabrera — went a combined 6-for-13 with eight runs, two doubles a triple and six RBI and three walks.
** Omar Infante tied his career highs for hits (four) and stolen bases (two) in a game. He's stroked four 10 times and stolen two in a game twice, both this season.
** Jose Reyes added his team-leading 14th multi-hit game and is now batting .343 (24-for-70) in 19 games at Marlins Park.
** Greg Dobbs improved to 8-for-16 (.500) with runners in scoring position. The Marlins went 5-for-13 with RISP on Thursday and are now 19-for-53 (.358) during the first four games of this 10-game homestand.

Psoriasis is a malfunction of the immune system that causes an inflammation of the skin.
A condition known as psoriatic arthritis actually affects the joints. But most of us are more familiar with skin symptoms. Physician's Assistant Nicole Raulerson says the inflammation triggers real thick scaly plaques on the skin to happen.
Psoriasis is usually hereditary. It's most common in people ages 15 to 35, but it can show up at any age, "I had a patient this morning and she's twelve and developed full blown psoriasis on every surface."
For psoriasis patients like Mrs. Shiderer the worst part of the disease is the emotional stress of how people will respond.
Raulerson says, "My patients want to cover it up because they're embarrassed by it because people don't understand it. They're worried will I catch it or it's just unusual in appearance. That piece is the hardest one because it's not something that they can control."
Mrs. Shiderer has psoriasis in the usual places, "On the elbow is one of the most common presentations. Elbows, knees and you'll see people who come in and are like, I've had this for 10 years.. they just think it's thick, dry skin.
She also has a sometimes painful type, "Palmoplanter psoriasis on both hands. The cracks can affect fingertips. The fingertips will crack and bleed and make it hard for people to really grasp or touch anything because it hurts."
It's important to point out psoriasis is not contagious and is very treatable.

It underwent a near $3 million upgrade in the summer of 2011, with changes to the locker room including the creation of a new team lounge, as well as new lockers, updated graphic and audio/visual equipment. Other renovations included a new team meeting room with stadium-style seating as well as renovated positional meeting rooms.
Walter Umphrey, a former SMU student and Beaumont attorney, donated $1 million to the efforts in honor of his former Mustang teammate Garry Weber. SMU alumnus and Austin businessman John Gorman and an anonymous Houston-based donor each gifted $500,000 for the project, and the remaining balance of the $2.7 million was from various donors.
Plenty of space is available in the lockers to keep the athletes' equipment. Space is available for their custom-fitted pads and helmets. The Mustang football players also keep their wide assortment of workout clothing in the lockers.
Each locker has a built-in storage area for the player's numerous pairs of playing and workout shoes. There are individual lock boxes for valuables and a built-in cabinet located at the bottom of each locker, as well as personalized plates to i.d. each player's individual locker.
Adjacent to the locker room is SMU's 10,000-square-foot state-of-the-art strength and conditioning center and the new equipment room, where an equipment issue area and a laundry facility, is located directly across the hall from the lockerroom.
