"A fun story of an octopus that wants to be a father."
Octodad is a third person adventure game, most peculiar, which is about life itself, about fatherhood, deceit and destruction.
In Octodad you have to control an octopus disguised as a human. His existence is a constant trick where you have to do everything possible to dominate your everyday tasks with boneless tentacles, but always keeping your cephalopod nature secret, even from your family.
Although your goal in the game is to complete daily tasks, you'll see that not everything is so simple, and less when you depend on your tentacles. But being an octopus also has its advantages, like being able to slip through small spaces or grip objects with great force. Whatever you do in Octodad, you must be very careful, because it could reveal your true identity. And when that happens the game is over.

Chapter 8
● POINT OF VIEW • Jace
"Come on sleepy head I need you to wake up for a few minutes so I can run some tests" the voice was demanding and continued to call to me over and over again.
"Jace, I know you hear me. You need to wake up for me. It's important. Come on Jace wakey wakey."
I had no desire to wake up. I was so comfortable and happy I just wanted to remain exactly where I was. I was on the most comfortable bed I had ever had the pleasure of sleeping in. I wanted the voice to shut up and leave me alone but it just kept talking. Finally I pushed my eyes open with the intention of telling the speaker to shut up. I immediately closed them again and tried to verbalize my request. I was surprised by how rough and cracked my own voice sounded to my ears
"Leave me alone, I want to sleep." I heard the female chuckle before she said even more forcibly.
"Jace! You need to wake up and drop you skin veneer. You are becoming almost as problematic as your heart's desire. I can't do the blood tests or even give you pain meds if the both of you insist on keeping your skin veneer on."
I tried to wrap myself around her words skin veneer? That's when her conversation with me from before came back. I was alive and blood bonded to my Jinn, Hestia. Our blood bonding somehow saved our lives. The more that came back the more alert my brain started to feel. I forced my eyes open again and blinked them several times as I allowed them to adjust to the light. I glanced into the face of a female Unseelie court Brownie. I knew she was a Brownie by her tiny little shape, standing no more than four feet top, her large perturbing fangs and her bright red long hair and her. I tilted my head slightly to the left and looked questionable at her. She smiled warmly and said
"I am medic Dinlas; you can call me Dinlas, medic Dinlas or just medic for short. Do you prefer Jace or some other title? You and your heart's desire are doing wonderful. You are almost completely healed and Hestia is doing remarkably well."
I swallowed again as Dinlas passed me a glass of water. I was surprised when I had the strength to lift it to my own lips. I took two swallows before I realized I was not alone in the bed. Seeing my female next to me surprised me enough that I moaned and dropped the glass on my lap. I felt the cool water soak through the sheet and wet the bed beneath me.
I heard Dinlas chuckle again as she immediately pulled the wet sheet from my lap. I suddenly comprehend I was without any clothing and so was my heart's desire. My eyes must have grown five sizes larger as I looked at my body that was covered in a dark of blue shaded skin veneer. I glanced towards my Jinn and saw she too was covered in identical skin veneer as mine.
For a few moments I found myself enthralled by her beauty of our skin veneer. We shimmered and glistening and shined like a thousand tiny little diamonds. I couldn't stop myself from gasping in awe. Then my situation finally flowered inside of my foggy brain and I looked up at Dinlas and started firing off questions. One question after the other not even slowing down to wait for an answer.
"How long have we been here? How did we get here? Why do you think I have skin veneer? Why am I in bed with Hestia? That is her name right? How bad are her injuries? Why are you here? Your Unseelie court why help a Jinn? It's illegal for an Unseelie court member to bond or wed a Seelie court member!
My last words were a statement not a question but I was suddenly filled with fear. Had my kin healed my Jinn and me just so they judge us as criminals in an Unseelie court of law and publicly execute us? I had heard the queen was capturing and killing others that had gone against her decrees. Queen Hekuba was almost barbaric in her approach to reprimanding any who broke her laws. She was killing almost as many Unseelie as the war itself.
Each year of her reign she would create and decree new laws for the Unseelie court. Her most stringent is the law forbidding us to wed our heart's desires unless the soul is held within another Unseelie court member. She is singlehandedly helping the Seelie court members to make our species extinct. It would not surprise me that she would heal both my heart's desire and me so that she could publicly decree we had broken her law and have us beheaded in front of the entire royal court. I swallowed nervously and found myself reaching out to touch my Jinn gently. I heard Dinlas take a deep breath then say in a soft gentle voice
"I no longer support the royal Unseelie court. In fact I no longer have any ties to the Unseelie court laws or rules. I chose to help the needy regardless of their race. I cannot abide by the foolish laws queen Hekuba has set for our people. The royal family is responsible for this entire mess. It was their desires and foolish goals that started the war. Then it was their bad judgment and magic spells that tore our souls apart. Now on the eve of our extinction they forbid us from even finding peace in death. I cannot and will not support that kind of stupidity.
You and your heart's desire Hestia, and yes that is her name, are safe here. This entire camp is made up of evacuees from all races. We keep to ourselves and try to stay out of politics and the war. Our goal is for a peaceful quiet life. It's been just a few days since you were awake last. Castor suggested that we put the two of you in the same bed. He thought since your DNA changed you might heal faster if you and Hestia had physical contact.
It is a well-known fact that Seelie court members heal three times faster when their heart's desire is next to them. Turns out he was right, you and Hestia both healed much faster the moment we allowed you to be in physical contact with each other."

Barrister Sarah Pritchard from Kings Chambers, acting for the defendant, has recently secured the dismissal in the Court of Appeal of the claimant's appeal against the judgment of HHJ Armitage QC in this employer's liability case.
At first instance, the judge concluded that the configuration of the delivery vehicle used by baker Warburtons was not inherently dangerous and employees did not require specific training to safely manage any such risks as might be posed by its use.
In fact, no risk assessment at all had been conducted regarding the side steps to the vehicle, it being the defendant's case that even had such assessment been carried out no special information/training was required to enable its employees to walk up and down simple steps.
The Court of Appeal rejected entirely the claimant's submissions that the original judgment was perverse and endorsed the trial judge's conclusions that no training was needed and no risk of assessment was necessary because 'the need to take care was obvious'.
They further approved the trial judge's view that the use of the side steps in question was 'largely a matter of common sense' and 'it was unlikely that anybody trains their employees to go up and down staircases'.

By Sarah Skidmore, AP Food Industry Writer
PORTLAND, Ore. Pumpkin lovers can relax: A nearly year-long shortage of the canned stuff is over.
That means an end to the hoarding, rationing and even pumpkin profiteering that have been going on since heavy rain ruined last year's harvest and caused a shortfall.
The country's top producer says this year's crop is healthy and cans are arriving in stores.
"I was a little panicked," Jamie Lothridge of Toledo, Ohio, said about the prospect of another season low on pumpkin. The avid baker bought more than 25 cans last fall and was down to her final few this month when she called Libby's to make sure it would be back.
Nestle, which sells about 85% of the canned pumpkin in the U.S. under its Libby's brand, said customer inquiries have grown five-fold since last fall, when it warned it might not have enough to get through the holidays.
The problem was compounded by pumpkin's growing popularity in American kitchens. Its richness in nutrients has given it a reputation as a "super-food," and people use it year-round in bread, muffins and rolls. Some even feed it to their dogs and cats as a digestive aid.
To most, though, it means one thing.
"The color, smell and taste of pumpkin equals fall," Lothridge said.
The canned pumpkin market is worth $141 million in the U.S., but about 80% of those sales come in the last three months of the year, according to research group IBIS World.
Normally Nestle's fall harvest yields enough pumpkin to last until the next year. But its farm in Morton, Ill. — the source of nearly all its pumpkins — received about double the typical rainfall last year. Tractors sat mired in muck and much of the crop rotted in the fields.
Canned pumpkin was gone from the shelves as early as Thanksgiving in some places. On eBay, cans of pumpkin went for $6 or $7 apiece, several times the normal price, as supplies dwindled. Some organic competitors increased shipments to stores. Grocers fielded inquiries from disappointed shoppers. At least one grocery chain, Publix, has since rolled out its own store brand to help meet demand.
Nestle is raising its suggested retail price by 20 cents to $1.79 for a 15-ounce can. The company said the 12% increase is needed to cover higher costs.
Nestle said it planted extra and planted early this year. The harvest is one-third done, and weather has cooperated so far. Forecasts are warm and dry — favorable for pumpkin picking.
That's good news for Alexa Gallagher, who says her grocers in the suburbs of Philadelphia have been out of the pumpkin since before Christmas. She made do with frozen butternut squash to make her family's favorite fall desserts.
"I knew it would come. The question is, how long will it be on store shelves?" Gallager said. "I am buying more than I usually do in case I have to make it last."
Pia Rappaport of New York. celebrates her October birthday with pumpkin pie. and loves to eat pumpkin cake, ravioli and pudding. She even stocks her apartment with pumpkin-scented candles.
"I would be worried if there was a shortage," she said. "It's not like there is this huge market you can turn to for canned pumpkins."

Order - Ink and Tea by CarnegriffWatch
©2012-2017 Carnegriff
Order - Ink and tea on paper
At first glance, this painting is very beautiful and harmonious. The shapes and the colors look marvelous together and it wasn't easy to do so. The contrast between the geometric and the flowing drops is interesting. We could think that too many effect (shapes and drops) could overload the drawing but not here. The layout and colors are so well arranged that the painting is a total success. The technique is important to get that result. A great mastery of colors and shapes that despite the apparent aggressiveness of the drawing inspire me sweetness and lightness. Moreover the face seems to be very calm and quiet which contrasts with the movement created by the drippings. The contrasts are maybe what makes this painting so impactful. And the quality of the realisation makes it magnificient! (English is not my mother tongue ! )

NOTE: I'm ba-a-ack! :D Did you miss me? Well, as promised, here is the sequel to the story "Reaching for the Moon." I actually found myself struggling with this story a little (THERE'S SO MANY THINGS THAT NEED/I WANT TO HAPPEN!) and so my updating, may be a little slower than the other story. May is the key word...
This story is in Yamato's POV. Because of that I will be naming the chapters after songs that I feel fit with the chapter. I most likely will also include a verse or two from the actual song. And yes...it is a bit angsty...but there is a LOT more Taito action in this story than the first one! I promise.
With out further ado, here is the Prologue to my new fanfic, "Patience."
WARNINGS: Swearing, angst and slash. Slash? Yes. Don't like it? Don't read it.
DISCLAIMER: "If I Owned Digimon." By Psycho Weasel. "If I owned Digimon, Tai and Matt would have done many naughty things together and gotten together at the end. Also Tai wouldn't have given up his goggles! The end." Moral of the sad story: I don't own Digimon.
I was in love with Taichi Yagami. Really…I was. And I know that he was in love with me.
But when you're separated for a long period of time, I guess things start to change. People start to change. He decided to be with Sora and in return, and slight revenge, I decided to be with Peter. Peter was a good guy, he really was. I never would have suspected things to fall down hill...At first, he made me feel like I was worth something and told me he loved me more than anything…more than anyone ever would.
"I love you more than anyone ever has or will." That was always his excuse. Honestly, I believed it. First it was my parents splitting up, then Takeru, and then Taichi…once Taichi abandoned me, I was a wreck. So when Peter stepped in and treated me like he cared for me and always wanted to stay by my side, I couldn't help but to believe what ever he said. Even when he'd shout at me...even when he'd isolate me from almost everyone else...even when he'd hit me…I still believed him. Every single word. Words that would be branded into my soul and heart forever.
I knew that I had trapped myself in a personal prison cell. I was constantly worried that if I did something wrong, he would hurt me. If I spent too much time with my grandmother, he would think that I was cheating on him and wouldn't talk to me for a long period of time. And when he would talk to me, it was of how he was the only one who really cared and worried about me and that if I didn't do what he said that he would leave me. I should have been the one to leave…but I am weak and stupid. I wasn't strong enough to tell him no or to stand up for myself. I'm never strong enough…but Taichi was strong. That's something I liked about him.
Peter didn't think so however. Taichi obviously wasn't strong enough to wait for me a full year. He wasn't strong enough to pick up a damn paper and pencil and write to me. He wasn't strong enough to show any interest in his so-called "best friend." Taichi wasn't strong in Peter's eyes…but sometimes I thought that maybe what Peter feared was that the bond Taichi and I had been too strong. Stronger than what I'd ever had with anyone…Peter always was the jealous type.
Peter. Boarding school. The United States. That is all behind me now. Now I had to face Japan, high school, and Taichi. I don't think I still feel anything for him, Peter made sure of that…but what if he did still feel something for me? What if Taichi really did love me still? What if he was still willing to fight for me? What if…
No. Don't be stupid Yamato. He gave up on me and I gave up on him. There is nothing left to hold on to. Besides, I'm not ready or willing to love again. Not yet...not after Peter…I can't…
Patience. That is what I needed from everyone now more than ever. I needed patience so that the scars would heal. I needed patience so that I could trust myself to have another relationship with anyone. I needed patience…and I know that that is something that Taichi can never give me.
Just have a little patience
I'm still hurting from a love I lost
I'm feeling your frustration
Any minute all the pain will stop.
Just hold me close inside your arms tonight
Don't be too hard on my emotions.
'Cause I
Need time
My heart is numb, has no feeling
So while I'm still healing
Just try and have a little patience.
I really wanna start over again
I know you wanna be my salvation
The one that I can always depend.
I'll try to be strong
Believe me I'm trying to move on
It's complicated but understand me.
'Cause the scars run so deep
It's been hard but I have to believe
Just have a little patience [x2]
Have a little patience
My heart is numb, has no feeling
So while I'm still healing
Just try and have a little patience
-Take That
...so for this song I just decided to put the whole song lyrics in. I'd actually advise you to look up the song and listen to it. I think it's more powerful than the text itself. If you look on my page, there is also a link to the music video that inspired this story (and also so inspired "R4M"). I know it's short, and I know you're mad, and I know you're confused...but please bare with me on these first few chapters. Like I said, all will reveil itself in good time.
Tell me what you think! Good? Bad? WTF? Flames will be used to roast weenies!
I have a feeling people are going to jump at me and be like, "WTF? I THOUGHT YOU SAID THIS WAS A TAITO STORY? WHO THE HELL IS THIS GUY?" Let me explain...this story, the whole story, has to deal with the subject of date abuse. I'm not trying to offend anyone, and I'm not trying to make fun of it or anything. I just decided that taking on this topic will give me sort of a challenge and a decent story plot. If you don't like this subject, please go find another story that will satisfy you better. Please give this story a chance.

|Template:Taxobox title
|Scientific classification
| Animalia
| Nematoda
| Secernentea
| Strongylida
| Dictyocaulidae
| Dictyocaulus
Dictyocaulus is a genus of nematode parasites of the bronchial tree of horses, sheep, goats, deer, and cattle. Dictyocaulus arnfeldii is the lungworm of horses, and Dictyocaulus viviparus is the lungworm affecting ruminants.
Dictyocaulus viviparus: lungworm of cattle, deer
D. viviparus is the most common lungworm of cattle; the infection is also known as Husk or Parasitic Bronchitis. Although classified as the same parasite, some people believe that the D. viviparus of deer and elk should be reclassified as a different species, including D. eckertii in New Zealand. However, both species have been shown capable of cross-infecting cattle and cervids (at least in New Zealand) [1].
The parasite has a simple but interesting life cycle, with dipersal facilitated by a fungus.
Adult D. viviparus worms reside in the bronchial tree of the animal's lungs. They lay eggs into the airways (bronchi). These eggs are coughed up and subsequently swallowed by the host. The eggs hatch into Stage 1 larvae (L1) in the gastrointestinal tract of the ruminant host. These L1 larvae are shed in the feces or manure. In the feces, larvae mature through two stages and become infective as L3 stage larvae. Cattle feces supports the growth of Pilobolus sp. fungi. The L3 larvae of D. viviparus invade the inside of these fungi, and wait in the fungal sporangium. When the fungus sporulates, the larvae are dispersed as much as 10 feet in a pasture.
Cattle grazing then ingest the L3 larvae. These larvae go through the intestinal system and penetrate the intestinal wall. They use the lymphatic system to reach the mesenteric lymph nodes, where they mature once again into L4 stage larvae. The L4 larvae use the blood supply and the lymphatic system to reach the lungs, where they become adults. The life cyle is completed.
Diagnosis of D. viviparus infection
- Microscope detection of L1 larvae in feces
- Microscope detection of eggs or larvae in the coughed up sputum or bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from affected animal
- Blood serology test for worm antigens (available in some countries / states)
Treatment of lungworm infections
Lungworms can be treated with ivermectin, albendazole, fenbendazole, febantel and other anthelmintics. Pasture management should take into consideration the infectiveness of these organisms.
D. arnfeldii in horses and donkeys
D. arnfeldi is similar to D. viviparus in cattle, but only affects equids. Donkeys usually show no disease and can be silent carriers (and shedders) of this parasite, which causes clinical signs in horses. Routine deworming of horses and donkeys may help prevent cross infection when kept together. Pastures that housed donkeys may be infected with lungworm larvae. As a result, horses and donkeys should not be grazed together. These drugs are given with three weeks intervals between treatments.

www.sipsmith.com/blog/articles/how-to-make-the-perfect-sloe-gin is a very good guide. I just bottled up last year's effort and started this year's batch today. I am currently engaged in some quality assurance testing which is going very well indeed .
Wolf spiders don't attack humans, we are far too big and scary for them. They will run and hide if you go after them. They will bite in defense if provoked, e.g. trying to catch them. They get unfairly blamed for other insect bites and there are plenty of other things in your garden which will seek you out to feed on you - mosquitoes, midges etc. I would suspect one of those rather than wolf spiders.
This web site has some useful info www.gardenaction.co.uk/fruit_veg_diary/fruit_veg_mini_project_march_2d_plum.asp
Plum trees will begin fruiting at around 4 or 5 years old so you may have a bit of a wait yet.
Pampas grass, razor edged so nobody gets close to it twice if they can avoid it.
I have tried killing all other apps but nothing helps. It is only this site which shows this odd behaviour though, all other sites I have tried are fine.
Bramleys last for a very long time. Could be a pollination problem. Bramley needs 2 other group D pollinators - Laxton Superb is one but you need another. The Bramley won't pollinate the Laxton but it is partly self fertile so you should get some fruit from the Laxton. Normally other trees in the neighbourhood would act as pollinators but if they have all gone then you could try a flowering crab apple.
They may also have developed a biennial flowering habit which combined with pruning may account for lack of flowers and fruit.
It can take up to 20 seconds to load the site or switch pages on my Android tablet. It used to be just as fast as viewing on my PC but is now horribly slow. I don't have any ad blockers running which can slow things down. Any ideas what might be causing this?
Gardena have adjustable drippers but like Hozelock these are designed to be used on microbore tubing. This usually taps into 13mm thin wall tubing which forms the main circuit. Both makes sell complete kits in a box which is usually good value. With winter coming check garden centres etc. for bargains as they get rid of summer stuff like this.
Marketing drivel, that's all.
Nothing will grow under rhododendrons. Are you thinking of planting in front of the rhodos instead? You can prune back the rhodos very severely to free up some more space. Do you know which rhododendron you have?

Christmas Date for the Diary
The Community Council and Hall Committee have pencilled in the date of Sun 4 Dec at 4.30pm for the Christmas Tree Lights switch on and service at the hall. We hope our schoolchildren will be singing some Christmas carols and that Santa might even pay a visit! Watch this space and keep checking Twitter and Facebook for the final details.
May/June 2016
Tealing Primary School has a new head teacher, Mrs Elaine Greenhill. Mrs Greenhill has made an excellent start in the school, organising a very successful fund raising Open Day on Sat 25 June which raised £1000. She has also been in talks with the Community Council and will be working closely with them and other local groups to help ensure that the school is at the heart of the local community and open and accessible to all. We welcome Mrs Greenhill to Tealing, thank her for her warmth, friendliness and enthusiasm and wish her a long and happy time at TPS.
Feb 2016
Tealing has a new Community Council
After the community council reached the end of its term in Oct 2015 and no-one came forward to stand, it looked like decades of active community council support for the village would come to an end. However, thanks to one last push from long standing community enthusiasts Kay Dennis and Sandra Burke, a full team of 8 local volunteers came forward and Angus Council formally reinstated the Community Council in Feb. Find out who your community councillors are and how to contact them here.
Tealing Hall Management Committee
Annual Report 2014
2014 has been a massive year for THMC, The major event was purchasing our Hall from Angus Council through a Community Asset Transfer. This was a lengthy and demanding process over a 2 year period but very pleased to announce that the transfer is now completed.
There were a number of complications for Tealing Hall Management committee owning the hall. To overcome these problems we have changed our structure to a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation and our title will now be Tealing Hall SCIO. The hall is owned by the members of Tealing Hall SCIO; to become a member you have to live in the Tealing area or be a hall user. As an SCIO we are required to have a board of Charity Trustees. We presently have 4 trustees, however, our constitution requires us to have between 5 and 8, we intend to increase our trustees tonight to meet our statutory requirement. The full complement of Charity Trustees are now Ian Reid, Harold Haggart, Graham Campbell, Alan Slade, Rev. David Collins, Dr. Joseph Morrow, Graeme Reoch and Alex Strang.
We regret to announce that Bessie Coventry will be giving up the role of Hall Keeper at the end of the year. Bessie has been doing the job for the last 20 years. Bessie is very professional and a great asset for our hall. It is unlikely that we will find a replacement with the required qualities. We are presently looking at alternative methods of hall keeping.
Financial Highlights
We were a beneficiary of Miss Bowie's will, last year we received an interim payment of £ 6,050, this year we had a final payment of £2,715.
We regret to announce that Margaret Mitchell our Secretary /Treasurer for 35 years has decided to call it a day. She will be sorely missed. As well as her Secretary / Treasurer duties, she managed the 200 club. Again we need to thank Margaret for the problem free operation of the 200 club over many years. There is a great deal of work involved in managing the 200 club and it is unlikely that we will be able to get a replacement. We are presently looking at ways to simplify the operation of the 200 club so that managing it will be less demanding.
There have been 4 major projects this year.
Presentation of Bouquets to Margaret Mitchell, Ella Hutchison and Bessie Coventry by Rev. David Collins.
Margaret Mitchell, our Secretary Treasurer for over 30 years, resigned at the AGM. Margaret will be very difficult to replace, particularly her key role in running the 200 Club.
Bessie Coventry, our Hall Keeper, has been in the role for 20 years and she would like to take things a bit easier. The committee have concluded that it would be extremely unlikely that we could recruit a suitable candidate with the required qualities and commitment required. The committee have made some proposals that includes a cleaning contract and we would hope to continue operating successfully without a dedicated hall keeper in the future. Bessie will not be completely leaving us. She will continue to act as hall keeper for the Wednesday Club and the Church.
Ella, Bessie's assistant, will also be taking things easier in the future.
We wish them all well for the future.
The ownership and management of Tealing Village Hall has been transferred to the local community. At a ceremonial handover on Tuesday 11 November the newly formed hall trust accepted the keys of the hall from Angus Council. This is the first council owned building to be transferred to community ownership under the council's community asset transfer scheme. The council's Communities convener councillor Donald Morrison commended the trust for all their hard work, saying: "The trust has exciting plans for the continued development of the hall, which will keep it at the heart of community life in the Tealing area. "Transferring it from council to community ownership opens the door to a new range of funding and development opportunities, with the community having autonomy over the hall's future."
The new charitable trust replaces the former hall management committee. Chairman Ian Reid said: "We are delighted to finally have ownership of the hall and are grateful for the support we received from Angus Council. We have ambitious plans for the hall's future. We want it to be something the whole community can be proud of, feel they have a stake in and most importantly want to use!
"We have already revamped the waste ground behind hall – turning it from an eyesore into an attractive community space. Future plans include a refurbishment of the middle hall, the creation of an internet café and IT space for general community use – we have already secured a £6800 grant from Awards for All for this work. " Ian concluded by saying: "Our goal is to have a welcoming and well equipped space that people of all ages in our community will want to use and enjoy."

The new Kerbside Recycling Service
In September 2012 Angus Council began a trial with 5,200 households in Arbroath, Carnoustie and selected rural areas to test a new recycling service. This enabled households taking part to recycle more materials, as easily as possible including food waste.
The trial proved successful and will be rolled out out as the NEW Kerbside Recycling Service to all but the most rural areas of Angus beginning in March 2014. Before each phase of the new service roll-out begins we will write to householders with further information.
Tealing is include in phase 2 and should begin in June.

Friday 16th May 20143pm – 8pm
Tealing Solar Park Ltd has identified the potential for a Solar Park on land atthe former Tealing Airfield, located to the south west of Tealing. The scheme is being developed in partnership with the landowner, Mr. Charles Simmers, and experienced Solar Park developers Renewable Energy Projects Ltd and a UK subsidiary of IZEN Energy Systems NV, Green Ventures. The current proposal is for a 30MW array of Solar PV panels across the southern half of the airfield, extending from the electrical substation to the poultry sheds and down past Muir of Pert. The development will provide enough electricity for over 7,000 homes annually. A public exhibition will be held on Friday 16th of May at Tealing Hall, Hall Road, Inveraldie. The drop-in event will run from 3pm to 8pm and will provide details about the proposed scheme and present findings from the environmental studies that have been carried out by Green Cat Renewables Ltd, who have been appointed by the developer to submit a full planning application in late May 2014. The event represents an opportunity for you to find out more about the scheme, to ask any questions that you may have and express your views on the proposals.
All are welcome. Green Cat Renewables Ltd.
Sunday 27th April 2014 The waste Ground action day.
The Hall Committee are in the final stages of taking ownership of the Hall and surrounding ground from Angus Council. The ground at the rear of the hall had been used for fly tipping and for burning rubbish for the last 40 years. The Hall committee had a vision of turning this area into a community asset and over the last year have been working towards improving this area.
Phase 1 was completed at the end of 2013 and comprised of removing 40 years dumped material and laying paving to provide safe access from emergency exits. Funding of £3,000 was obtained from Angus Environmental Trust to carry out this work. At the same time we have been running a communication exercise with locals in Inveraldie to change behaviour in regard to dumping and burning rubbish in the area.
Phase 2 comprised of cleaning up and landscaping the immediate area around the hall. To help foster a spirit of pride and ownership in the community we decided to have an action day and sought out local volunteers to carry out the work. This is how the day worked out.
The forecast was for rain and the action day required dry weather, however the rain stayed off and 21 willing and hard working volunteers turned up.
Ron Stewart, Jim Davie, Vikki, Bill and Eric Morrison, Nicki Donaldson, Shelia and Norman Cooper, Joyce and Andrew Barr, Eileen and Alex Strang, Neil Dewar, Harold Haggart, Carole and Alan Slade, Lindsay Hay, Yolanda Archibald, Iris Coghill, Mary & Graham Campbell
The day was a great success; apart from the amount of work completed there was a real feeling of satisfaction and camaraderie in Tealing working together for the community.
We ran out of time to complete all the tasks. We plan to complete these unfinished jobs on Sunday 11th May. Any new volunteers would be welcomed.
Thanks to all involved, special thanks to Ron Stewart for providing equipment for the clean-up and to Alex Strang for the removal of a very large volume of dumped material.

18 Aug 2013 Generous Donation of World War 2 WAAF Jacket by Mrs Mabel Langlands
Tealing Community Council Chairman, Graeme Reoch, was delighted to accept the generous donation of Mrs Mabel Langland's WAAF jacket at a small ceremony with afternoon tea in Tealing Hall on Sunday 18 August.
Mrs Langlands, now a sprightly 93 years of age, was wearing the jacket in May 1942 when she plotted the arrival at Tealing Airfield of the Russian Goverment Minister, Molotov, who was on his way to London to meet Winston Churchill to sign the Anglo-Russian Peace Treaty. Part of Tealing's history has come home and arrangements are being made to preserve and display the jacket in Tealing Hall.

Another year, another amazing Snowdon Push.
13 teams took part in Back Up's challenge event this year and made it their job to climb all the way up and down the highest peak of Mount Snowdon in North Wales. On Saturday July 11, each team of up to 16 people including a wheelchair user pushed, pulled, wheeled and climbed Snowdon with everything they've got.
With an almost record-breaking time of 2 hours and 51 minutes, Team Equinox raced up the mountain and past the competition to pick up Back Up's trophy for Fastest Team.
The teams weren't just competing for fastest climb of the mountain. They have been also tirelessly fundraising since they took on the challenge – all in support of Back Up. Over the weekend, each and every one of the participants went above and beyond their targets, raising over £50,000 for our charity.
Joe Gadd, whose team took home the prize for Top Fundraisers, said about the Push: "I've been involved with Back Up for a couple of years now and they helped me to get over my spinal cord injury and come to terms with things. They are a great charity and I'm so happy to raise money for them." Joe has raised almost £7,000 with his team for Back Up.
Team Summit Amazing went away with the Top Corporate Fundraising prize thanks to their support from the Royal Bank of Scotland. Team Withers, who went through hell and back and still came running to the final checkpoint, got the biggest round of applause at the Push after party and went home with the Spirit of the Push award.
The Push will be returning on July 1-3 2016 for Back Up's 30th anniversary. For more information on the Push and to register early for 2016, click here and contact Jo at firstname.lastname@example.com or call 020 8875 6722.

The Phone in my pocket! (i'm hungry)
I order a sandwich. Tuna on brown with red peppers. The red was working well, I feel safe in this cafe. Would the proprieter mind if Jaquie moved in I wonder?
I retrieve the phone and fiddle with the phonebook menu. It holds only six entries, one of them is 'Mum'. I have a strange sense of the word 'mum'. I know what it means; the female parent who grows you and then pushes you labouriously into existence. That is the extent of my understanding, is that enough?
On the basis that my 'mum' should be able to help my situation somewhat, I press the green button. The phone rings four times before:
"Hello?" A sleepy voice with an accent answers. Welsh? Scottish? Could I ever have known the difference?
"Mum?" Tentitively, I use the name I have just learned, but I can't keep my tone from questioning,"it's Jaquie?"
"Err.. Who?"

Come hear local Bookigee founder & CEO Kristen McLean give us the download on her recent visit to (Zappos CEO) Tony Hseih's ambitious Downtown Project, whose mission is to redevelop fourteen square blocks of Las Vegas' blighted Freemont district into a lively live/work neighborhood in just 5 years. Kristen spent four days on the ground meeting with key leaders of the DPLV team, speaking with entrepreneurs in the project's 3 distinct co-working spaces, and talking directly with Tony about his creative & business goals for the project. The project is being driven by a $350M direct investment in the arts, education, small business, technology companies, and focal real estate redevelopment, with a remarkable emphasis on the idea of "return on community" and direct ownership of the project by the community members themselves. What are the creative lessons we can apply here in Miami as we continue to build our own unique startup ecosystem?

In 1994, after being featured in the Boston Globe for her work in the field of supervised visitation, she co‐founded Children's Supervised Visitations (CSV), a nonprofit center located in Marlboro. As executive director of CSV, she managed thousands of safe supervised visits between parents and children and oversaw the internship program for graduate students, providing training and mentoring for future visitation specialists.
The success of CSV led to the development of the Massachusetts Coalition of Supervised Visitation, of which Ms. Brice was a co‐founder and board member. As a member of the MCSV, she worked with former Chief Justice Sean Dunphy to establish practice standards for visitation supervisors.
After working in non‐profit organizations for twenty years, Ms. Brice, through Fair Play Parenting Education, now provides private supervised visitation services, parenting education and coaching, professional training, lectures, and mentoring geared to promoting best practices in the provision of supervised visitation services.

Central tenets of atherogenesis are macrophage passage and transformation to foam cells. It is known that numerous macrophage membrane proteins regulate this process by controlling properties such as migration and binding and uptake of oxidized lipids. The focus of this study is to identify mechanisms by which the transient receptor potential (TRP) channel of the vanilloid subfamily, TRPV4, a calcium-permeable channel, regulates proatherogenic macrophage functions. The findings show TRPV4 is expressed and functional in macrophages, TRPV4 modulates macrophage migratory characteristics, oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) uptake and foam cell formation is reliant on TRPV4-elicited Ca2+ influx, and the physiological inflammatory stimulus of lipopolysaccharide can mediate TRPV4 function. These results identified previously unknown components to macrophage migration and foam cell development. Collectively, these discoveries associate the TRPV4 channel with atherogenesis by identifying new regulators for macrophage phagocytosis and migration that are essential to atherosclerosis development. 2016-01-01T00:00:00Z Development of mechanistic models of transition periods between lag/exponential and exponential/stationary phases Wang, Yangyang http://hdl.handle.net/1903/19043 2017-01-26T03:42:03Z 2016-01-01T00:00:00Z Development of mechanistic models of transition periods between lag/exponential and exponential/stationary phases Wang, Yangyang Nowadays, primary mathematical models are widely accepted as a tool for quantitative food microbiology. Such models are being used in conjunction with curve-fitting software to evaluate food-associated microbial growth. The three most commonly used models are Baranyi, Gompertz, and three-phase linear models. However, most of these models are not mechanistically-based and do not take into account the underlying physiological events. The ultimate goal of this study is to develop models that is more directly based on microbial physiological behavior and to better describe the transition periods of both lag/exponential and exponential/stationary phases. In the study of lag/exponential transition, by using standard deviations from the trials, traditional smooth sigmoidal growth curve was obtainable through three-phase linear model by Monte Carlo simulation. Moreover, by using nutritional-shift procedure, the time course of critical physiological events related to lactose metabolism were mapped. While studying the transition period from exponential to stationary phase, both agitation rate and inoculum size were investigated for the potential impact of spatial nutrient depletion on the transition abruptness. While agitation rate had limited influence, inoculum size was proved to affect the shape of growth curve. Furthermore, combining the result of rpoS mRNA expression study, the time course of cell response to starvation was determined. 2016-01-01T00:00:00Z Evaluation of the Simple Wetting Method to Reduce Total Cyanogens in Flaxseed Sanders, Kathleen Suzanne http://hdl.handle.net/1903/19042 2017-01-26T03:42:01Z 2016-01-01T00:00:00Z Evaluation of the Simple Wetting Method to Reduce Total Cyanogens in Flaxseed Sanders, Kathleen Suzanne A simple wetting method used to significantly reduce the % total cyanide remaining (TCR) in cassava was evaluated for its applicability to flaxseed. An optimal simple wetting method (SWM) in terms of time, temperature, and exposed surface area (SA) depth was developed for reducing the % TCR in ground flaxseed. The optimal parameters were a treatment time of 12 h, an ambient temperature of approximately 22°C, and an increased exposed SA achieved through spreading the wetted flaxseed mixture out to a thin depth of 0.5 cm. General mixed model analysis confirmed that the variables time and SA were significant factors in minimizing the %TCR in the optimal model. Pairwise comparison showed that the 0.5 cm depth had the greatest effect. The desirable lignan secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (SDG) was significantly retained, as determined by HPLC quantification of pre- and post-processing levels. 2016-01-01T00:00:00Z NECK CIRCUMFERENCE AS A NEW ANTHROPOMETRIC INDICATOR FOR PREDICTION OF CARDIOMETABOLIC RISKS IN SAUDI POPULATION Albassam, Reem Sulaiman http://hdl.handle.net/1903/18862 2016-11-04T02:41:20Z 2016-01-01T00:00:00Z NECK CIRCUMFERENCE AS A NEW ANTHROPOMETRIC INDICATOR FOR PREDICTION OF CARDIOMETABOLIC RISKS IN SAUDI POPULATION Albassam, Reem Sulaiman Background: Recent studies have associated neck circumference (NC) with metabolic and cardiovascular disease risk factors. No studies designed to examine NC as a measure of cardiometabolic risks have been performed in Saudi Arabia (KSA). Objective: This study aimed to analyze the association between NC and several cardiometabolic risk factors, and to determine the cut-off point value of NC for predicting women at increased risk of metabolic syndrome (MetS). Methods: This cross-sectional study comprised of 700 participants (623 women and 77 men aged 18–70). Study performed in Riyadh city, KSA. International Diabetes Federation (IDF) guidelines were used to diagnose MetS among the subjects. The main indicators studied were NC, waist circumference (WC), body mass index (BMI), body fat %, blood pressure, plasma glucose, total cholesterol, lipoproteins, triglycerides, and homeostasis model assessment-estimated insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) levels. Covariance, and logistic regression analyses were used to evaluate the association of NC to cardiometabolic risk factors separately by genders. Receivers operating characteristic (ROC) curves analyses were used to determine the optimal cutoffs. Results: NC is associated with BMI and WC in men and women. In women, it is associated with cardiometabolic risk factors beyond other anthropometric indices. NC is independently associated with all cardiometabolic risk factors except LDL (P < 0.001). Fully adjusted OR (95% CI) values for incremental increases in NC for women were 1.70 (1.48–2.94) for raised fasting glucose; 1.29 (1.15–1.45) for raised blood pressure; 1.25 (1.13–1.38) for high triglycerides; 1.20 (1.02–1.40) for insulin resistance; and 1.14 (1.02–1.40) for low HDLc. Women in the largest NC quartile were 13 times more likely [OR (95% CI): 13.39 (6.35 - 28.23)] to have MetS compared to the lowest NC quartile after adjustments for possible confounders (all P < 0.01). Finally, our results indicated that the appropriate NC to predict three or more metabolic risk factors in Saudi women is 35.5 cm. This cutoff value was associated with a much greater risk of MetS in participants with both high and normal BMI and WC values. Conclusion: NC is significantly and independently associated with cardiometabolic risk factors in adult Saudi women. 2016-01-01T00:00:00Z

Chapter 2 Josselle;
Chapter 2 Josselle;
After school, there is, tennis sign up, unfortunatly, We dont have the tennis courts, We have the swimming pool.Anyone who wants to try out for tennis, has to walk over to Willing East Private, for boys. I'm leaving the school grounds, and I cross the street.Then I see a guy comming toward me as i walk on the sidewalk. "Hey he's says looking at me." "Hi I say, giving a quick look towards him then turning my head back forward.""Are you trying out for tennis, says, the guy." "Yes, I say, not that it's any of your buisness." "Well, I was just wondering, I could show you where the courts are," says the boy."Thanks, but I'd rather figure it out on my own." "It's a bit comlicated, just follow me, says the boy". He winks at me as I follow him.
"Fine, I say." "By the way, my name is Matthew say's the boy." "Hi, I'm Josselle." "I'm trying out for tennis too say's Mathew, Though, im pretty much gauranteed a spot on the team."
"I'm glad it's not co-ed I say under my breath." "You know, You dont have to hate me, We guys, arent big jerks, like you think we are,
We dont want to be treated like jerks either, Mathew says, Were only human you know."
"Well, as long as were on the same page, we arent huge jerks or sluts either I say, but, i was being a jerk a minute ago and, im sorry, I smile at him slightly as I say this."
"You are really pretty though you know, You've got the whole thing down, small and skinny, blonde, and blue eyed, and im guessing, very smart."
"Thank you, I say. You do too, The whole package im guessing, smart, muscles, and abs, short brown hair with, the cutish boy look, and green eyes, like...the grass."
"Thanks, he says with a smile and winkes." We walk in silence, the rest of the way there.

Vintage Racing? (Ches. Bay)
I'm certain that with the large population of sailors on the Ches. Bay, that there are many racing events, but are there any races for older boats? Or is this just not done?
There is the Good Old Boat Regatta every year just after the Sailboat show. There are many evening races during the summer in which old and new boats run around the course. There are races for those who are not so competetive and those who are die hards. Being near Annapolis, you will have no shortage of races. I am not a racer myself, but I am sure somebody here can point you in the right direction.
Small Tits Cam
What do you consider to be an "OLD" boat? And just because you have an "OLD" boat does not mean you can not beat the fancy "new" boats either.
Most local racing is done on handicap, to hopefully level out the speed part of the game. Locally there is a late 60's, may be an ealry 70's Cal T2, the fellow has had since it was about 5 yrs old, Hard to beat him, no matter how new/fast you are.
Look up the local clubs that have boat races, join one, then doors are open all over the place.
And there are classic regattas too.
There was a classic boat race sponsored by Yankee Point Marina, near the Rappahanock River in Va. , when I was living in Deltaville back in the early 90's. It was called the Turkey Shoot , as it was held over Thanksgiving . We took 1st in class with the only glass boat [Allied Seawind Ketch] in the regatta. Regatta rules called for entrant boats to be a minimum of 25 years old but not limited to wood hulls as many protestors thought. There were classes for 30 and under and above 30. [won by a Herreshoff Rocinante] They are still running the regatta . Entry forms are on the Yankee Point Marina website. There were many fine yachts there back then and the party in Urbanna was a lot of fun. I'm sure that over the years, the number of boats is up from the 12 or so I remember from that first year.
The Turkey Shoot is a pretty big deal in that part of the bay. Its not near Thanksgiving anymore though, its done in Oct. The boat I sometimes crew on did the race for the first time this year. The boat design must be over 20 years old (the design, not necessarily the boat).
That sounds cool. First, I have to learn to sail myself obviously. I'd like to go observe these races and see how things are done. Then, if someone will have me, I'd like to crew on one of contestents' boats. Eventually, I'd like to give it a shot myself.
My boat's 40 years old so I should at least qualify as "classic". I met a guy at the local chandlery who has a 145 year old 20' sloop. I gotta see this come spring.
If you can get on a boat for the Tuesday night races that would be great. These were known as the Beer Can races, but I think the name has changed. I have been out on a few races and had a great time. They are not very cutthroat and, at least on the boat I was on, beer drinking was required. A good intro to racing to gain experience for the more competetive crews.

the view is obviously the best thing we stayed twice a week apart. on the first occasion the room and bathroom were shabby but made up for by the view
The ocean view is wonderful. The room could have been cleaner. The restaurant food is mediocre: which is strange because food is great all over Galicia.
Good location, helpful staff, clean rooms.
I found the room noisy with the people on the floor above us.
Location was excellent and the staff were fantastic! Would be more than happy to return the next time that I am staying in La Coruna:-) The hotel could definitely do with an ironing room; or place irons and ironing boards in the bedrooms; or alternatively make them available through reception. The hotel did offer an ironing service but I would expect the option of being able to do my own ironing in any hotel. A tea and coffee making option would also be a good idea for the rooms!
Beautiful and comfortable
an excellent hotel in a very good position.staff helpful and food good.
Location. View from room. Secure parking. Apparently the rate quoted by booking.com for our sea view room should have been per person not per room but the hotel honoured our quote without fuss.
Friendly staff! Nice View!
Good value for the money, great location. Room smelled kind of smokey (as in cigarettes). Also, our room faced looked directly into three other rooms, meaning that we could see anything and everything going on in these rooms if you had the blinds open, which you needed to have open in order to air out the smokey room.

text: "Sometimes good things have to fall apart for great things to come together" Hi! My name is Perla Ben Reyes and it's lovely to see you here. As you notice from my name, I am of hispanic/latino ethnicity and I am more then proud. I grew up in Santo Domingo the capital of Dominican Republic, an Island located in the Caribbean. I moved to the United States when I was twelve and I had to learn English which was an interesting but amazing experience. I am a college student majoring in human services. I've always been so attracted to people, the way they think, the way they feel about certain things. Studying people and their behavior is a hobbie of mine, but that is not the only one. I love to help people and help them through a hard journey pick them up and just watch them grow. There is really nothing less rewarding then helping to me. I am a dreamer at heart, and that combined with the way i feel about people just makes me a huge idealist. I love to express myself in more then one way, I also sing and dance but there is something about writing. You can take a person through an emotional journey, make them see what you think and feel, it's wonderful. I love learning about new cultures, and learn how people think and feel about certain things and compare it to what i know. I love mythology and anything that is sort of mystical, I am a very spiritual person and a believer that there is more to live than this, live does not end here. (here meaning this world) I am a sucker for romance, and I love things that make me think. Maybe this is too much or not enough but it is all I've got people. Besos, enjoy!

Sending Parcels the easy way
The ethos of Readyparcels - the professional parcel delivery and courier service.Better, faster & cheaper parcel delivery and courier services
ReadyParcels Motto
The ReadyParcels philosophy is that
1. sending parcels is a chore on which you want to spend as little time as possible.
2. parcel delivery needs to happen accurately and effectively to ensure that the person receiving the items (often their customer) receives them in a timely manner.
3. a one stop approach is paramount - allowing the customer to send parcels of varied dimensions to the UK and internationally
4. courier services need to be cost effective.
Simplifying parcel dispatch.
To cater for this Readyparcels has devised simple on-line pages that require as little keying as possible using sophisticated postcode matching. It provides the customer with 3 ways of requesting a parcel delivery:
* a simple quotation option for sending parcels on a one-off basis ;
* an option that allows for sending multiple parcels with minimal data input;
* an eBay delivery details download for eBay powersellers who wish to download their sales data and send parcels in a single click.
Accurate and Safe Parcel Delivery
ReadyParcels has teamed up with world renowned couriers, Parcelforce and DHL, to ensure that the highest quality of service is available to its customers.
The ReadyParcels system is electronically linked to its partners to ensure an accurate and speedy service and full parcel tracking is available free of charge on all services.
Additionally when checking the customer's data the ReadyParcels system employs sophisticated postcode matching for both the UK and international services to ensure that the addresses are accurately captured.
A one-stop courier service
ReadyParcels has worked painstakingly to ensure that a uniform approach is available to its customers. This allows customers to send parcels of various sizes to the UK in exactly the same way as abroad. – you can send several parcels to different countries from the same single page.
Plans to introduce a freight forwarding service are also in place with the ambition of retaining the same simple process for sending large freight.
Cheap parcel delivery – high value service
Individuals and businesses who go directly to the main couriers are faced with costs of up to 400% higher. This is because they simply do not have the high volume bargaining power that ReadyParcels has to negotiate prices for its customers … and it gets better! As ReadyParcels continues to grow the negotiating power increases and the charges to its customers will reduce.
If you want a courier service that is quick, effective and low-cost you could do a lot worse than going to Readyparcels whether you are just sending a single parcel or if you are a business who wants to minimise the costs and effort associated with sending parcels.
You can find the ReadyParcels service at http://www.readyparcels.com/

ReadyParcels is a low cost efficient courier and parcel delivery service. It uses its purchasing power to give heavily discounted services from couriers such as DHL. It is also seamlessly integrated with eBay. Additional discounts for regular users
