Bareboat to Catalina Island
Hi all,
We are looking to charter out of SoCal for an approximate week long trip to Catalina Island. We chartered out of Long Beach a couple of years ago with Marina Sailing. The trip was great and a good learning experience for us, being relatively new sailors on our first multi-day sail on our own. The boat was an older Catalina 34 that was scheduled to be retired from their fleet the following year, but was the only choice left in this size range due to our last minute reservation. We were pleased with how the boat handled, but the condition left a little to be desired. It showed its age much more than other 20+ year old boats we have chartered. It also had a lot of the owner's personal possessions crammed into most of the storage locations and wasn't as clean as other boats we have chartered. Overall, not a bad experience, but we have had better. Marina Sailing was fairly responsive to problems with the boat both before departure and once we arrived at Catalina. There were a few things that were bigger issues for us such as the dinghy not being registered (needs to be registered to be used in Avalon), which they told us about, but not until we showed up on the day of charter. Again, not a huge deal, but it meant that we had to pay for the shuttle boat each time we went ashore in Avalon, while a perfectly good dinghy sat idle on the foredeck. I would give Marina Sailing decent marks, and I wouldn't steer anyone away from them, but if there are better options, it would be good to know if there are charter companies in the area that others have had better experiences with.
I was wondering if anyone has recommendations for other bareboat charter options in the vicinity of Long Beach, Dana Point, Marina del Ray, or other similar locations. There are some very good charter options out of San Diego, but we would prefer to sail out from points further north to keep it to a one day trip there and back.
Thanks for any input.
Best wishes,
Blue Pacific in Marina del Rey. We found them to be very good. Ask to talk to Jason or Silvia.

Abstract at http://www.healio.co...drug-withdrawal
Numerous physical and psychiatric effects can be attributed to the cessation of psychotropic medications, similar to those agents with abuse potential. In addition, drug withdrawal can exacerbate underlying psychiatric conditions and alter disease course and long-term outcomes. This article discusses specific withdrawal syndromes associated with several classes of psychotropic medications to increase prescriber awareness when tapering and discontinuing psychotropic medications, thereby facilitating discussions with patients about the risks of withdrawal. [ Psychiatr Ann . 2016;46(8):466-472.]

A group of symptoms of variable clustering and degree of severity which occur on cessation or reduction of use of a psychoactive substance that has been taken repeatedly, usually for a prolonged period and/or in high doses. The syndrome may be accompanied by signs of physiological disturbance. 1
These syndromes are presumed to relate to the physiologic adaptations that include, but are not limited to, receptor density, sensitivity, and autoregulation, as well as to changes in neuro-connectivity that appear with prolonged exposure to a centrally acting drug. 2 The manifestations of withdrawal syndromes are thought to result from disruption of homeostasis created when a drug is removed and a new equilibrium needs to be achieved.
Given this relationship between changes in receptor levels and withdrawal symptoms, the withdrawal symptoms that are associated with specific classes of medications are predictable when placed in the context of their pharmacodynamics. In this article, we discuss the withdrawal symptoms associated with three major classes of psychotropic medications and address how knowledge of these drugs' mechanism of action can inform clinicians' predictions of withdrawal symptoms for those agents with less clearly researched withdrawal syndromes.
Because of their direct agonist effects, sedative-hypnotics most clearly show the interactions between drugs and receptors in the central nervous system (CNS) that lead to the emergence of withdrawal phenomenon. They also support the homeostasis disruption hypothesis for the genesis of drug-withdrawal syndromes.
Sedative-hypnotics exert their effects by modulating the brain's major neuroexcitatory pathway-the glutamate system. The excitatory effects of glutamate are balanced in the CNS by the inhibitory effects of the neurotransmitter gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA). GABA works by binding to GABA receptors on neurons and ultimately by decreasing the neuronal firing rate. 3 Despite subtle differences in where and how they activate receptors, sedative-hypnotics all function as GABA analogues. Like GABA, these drugs reduce neuronal firing, either by altering chloride ion influx (GABA-A receptor subtype) or via secondary messenger systems (GABA-B receptor subtype). It is this decrease in the neuronal firing rate that results in the anxiolytic, sedative, hypnotic, and anti-convulsant effects of these drugs. 3 Many therapeutic agents and illicit drugs interact with GABA receptors, but the most commonly prescribed ones in psychiatry are the benzodiazepines, "z-drugs" (eg, zolpidem), and barbiturates. Of these, benzodiazepines are, by far, the most prescribed and best-studied agents.
Prolonged use of benzodiazepines induces down-regulation of GABA-A receptors while triggering an increase in N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) glutamate receptors in a regulatory feedback mechanism. This presumably occurs to "balance" excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmission systems. A new ratio of excitatory to inhibitory neural transmission is thus created to account for the addition of the GABA-ergic drug. Clinically, this process results in the tolerance to the effects of the medication that are observed with protracted use. When this balance is disrupted via rapid tapering or an abrupt discontinuation of medication, an excitatory neuronal surge results from excess glutamate acting on NMDA and alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole-4-propionic acid receptors. Left unchecked, this results in the mild to severe glutamate- and hyperadrenergic-driven symptoms associated with benzodiazepine withdrawal. 4 Similar mechanisms and symptoms have been demonstrated for most other sedative-hypnotic drugs.
The most common symptom associated with discontinuation of a benzodiazepine is insomnia. 5,6 Other common symptoms of withdrawal include anxiety, restlessness, agitation, irritability, muscle tension, muscle aches, poor concentration, and impaired memory. 5-8 Less commonly, there may be an increased sensitivity to sound, light, touch, smell, and pain, as well as tremulousness, diaphoresis, palpitations, psychosis, confusion, and seizures. 6-8
Dreaded complications of benzodiazepine withdrawal (eg, psychosis, delirium, and seizures) are uncommon, occurring primarily in those with predisposing conditions (such as prior complicated withdrawal syndromes, seizures, or CNS pathology); these often arise after an abrupt discontinuation of high daily doses of benzodiazepines (>40 mg of diazepam-equivalents per day) 9,10 ( Table 1 ).
The timing of withdrawal symptoms is related to the individual pharmacokinetics of each of the benzodiazepines, with particular correlation to the half-life of the drug. After the abrupt discontinuation or dose reduction of short-acting benzodiazepines such as alprazolam, withdrawal symptoms typically begin within 12 to 24 hours and peak within 1 to 3 days; for longer-acting agents, such as diazepam, withdrawal symptoms may not emerge for 2 to 7 days, may not peak until 4 to 7 days, and may continue for 2 to 8 weeks or longer. 5,8,10
Of note, most benzodiazepines are metabolized in hepatocytes via the cytochrome P450 3A4 system. 9 In those with hepatic insufficiency, renal insufficiency, or dysfunction of other organs, metabolism of benzodiazepines may be reduced and their half-life increased. Clinicians should be aware that this may drastically delay the timing and course of withdrawal symptoms and the susceptibility to dreaded events such as seizures and delirium. In those with liver disease, oxazepam, temazepam, and lorazepam are preferred agents as they are metabolized by direct glucuronidation and not by oxidative metabolism (as are the remaining benzodiazepines), and thus their pharmacokinetics are less likely to become unpredictable.
Traditionally, short-acting benzodiazepines, such as alprazolam, have been associated with the most frequent and intense withdrawal syndromes. 7,8,10 However, a 2006 Cochrane review suggested that there is little direct support for this commonly held belief, as withdrawal symptom scores were similar in patients withdrawing from short-acting and long-acting agents. 11
Current guidelines for the pharmacologic management of benzodiazepine withdrawal in otherwise healthy adults typically include use (and then taper) of a long-acting benzodiazepine regardless of half-life of the initially prescribed medication. 5,11 However, key comparison studies with other agents are lacking, 12 and multiple strategies such as various benzodiazepine tapers, 5,10 phenobarbital taper, 12 and use of adjunctive carbamazepine 11,13 have been employed effectively. These studies suggest that, given the cross-tolerance and similar mechanism of action of drugs in the broader sedative-hypnotic class, treatment recommendations for benzodiazepine withdrawal can be extrapolated to other agents such as the barbiturates and z-drugs.
The WHO's 2009 Guidelines for the treatment of sedative-hypnotic withdrawal includes use of low doses (for patients taking <40 mg of diazepam-equivalents per day) and high doses (>40 mg of diazepam-equivalents per day). 5 In both strategies, patients are first stabilized on diazepam by converting their current sedative-hypnotic dose to diazepam-equivalents. The patient is continued on this dose in thrice daily doses for 4 to 7 days, and after that a gradual tapering strategy is initiated. 5
A retrospective analysis of benzodiazepine withdrawal (studying 310 patients treated over a 5-year period) showed that the use of a phenobarbital taper had significant efficacy and minimal adverse effects (the most common being sedation). 12 The recommended dosing schedule involved a 3-day oral taper of phenobarbital starting with a one-time dose of 200 mg, then 100 mg every 4 hours for 5 doses, then 60 mg every 4 hours for 4 doses, then 60 mg every 8 hours for 3 doses. Some patients received extra doses if they manifested persistent symptoms of withdrawal. This study supports the common clinical practice of substitution of various sedativehypnotics in the treatment of withdrawal.
Ultimately, the strategy used for treating withdrawal will depend on the patient's clinical status, including comorbid conditions, the clinical setting (eg, outpatient clinic, general hospital ward, intensive care unit), and other financial, institutional, and provider-specific considerations.
Withdrawal syndromes have been documented for all classes of antidepressants. Case reports of antidepressant withdrawal first appeared in the psychiatric literature in 1959, shortly after the introduction of the first tricyclic-imipramine. 14 Antidepressant withdrawal syndromes are believed to result from a combination of decreased monoamine availability in synaptic clefts, changes in density of receptor types in different regions of the brain, and alterations in receptor sensitivity to available neurotransmitters (especially with muscarinic, histaminergic, and adrenergic receptors). 15 The mechanism for how withdrawal symptoms are produced is much less well-defined than with the sedative-hypnotics, because these drugs have a mix of indirect (via reuptake inhibition) and direct (via receptor agonism/antagonism) effects on CNS homesostasis. Nevertheless, it is the re-establishing of homeostasis that is thought to account for symptom production.
Although the exact prevalence rates are difficult to determine, prospective studies using the Discontinuation-Emergent Signs and Symptoms scale, a validated measurement of withdrawal symptoms, have found that at least one withdrawal symptom, across all antidepressants (ie, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors [SSRIs], serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors [SNRIs], monoamine oxidase inhibitors [MAOIs], and tricyclic antidepressants [TCAs]), is present in approximately one-third of patients. 16 As with sedativehypnotics, the prevalence and severity of withdrawal syndromes has also been shown to correlate with the drug's half-life ( Table 2 ). In a prospective, blinded study where antidepressant treatment was discontinued abruptly for 1 week, the prevalence of paroxetine-associated withdrawal symptoms was 55%, whereas it was only 30% for fluoxetine. 17
In observational studies, symptoms of antidepressant withdrawal emerged within 4 days of stopping the medication in 86% of patients and in 93% within the first 7 days. 18 As might be expected, withdrawal symptoms emerge sooner with drugs that have a shorter half-life. The duration of withdrawal symptoms is typically 1 to 3 weeks, with a median duration of 8 days. 18
There is significant overlap between the observed withdrawal symptoms associated with SSRIs and SNRIs. 19 Symptoms include nausea, lethargy, headache, electric shock-like sensations, dizziness with eye movement, ataxia, irritability, low mood, and sleep disturbance (usually insomnia and vivid dreams). 20 Dysequilibirum and sensory disturbances appear to be more common from SSRI/SNRI withdrawal than from withdrawal of other classes of antidepressants.
TCA withdrawal syndromes are driven primarily by a "cholinergic rebound syndrome." Symptoms of cholinergic rebound result from alterations in the muscarinic receptors after prolonged antagonism. Symptoms of cholinergic rebound and TCA withdrawal include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, diaphoresis, insomnia, anxiety, and "flu-like" sensations. 21 TCAs are also unique among the antidepressants for their risk of inducing arrhythmias upon discontinuation.
Withdrawal from MAOIs is usually more impairing than seen with SSRIs, SNRIs, and TCAs. Although there is substantial overlap between withdrawal symptoms seen with MAOIs and all other classes of antidepressants, MAOI withdrawal has the added risk of being associated with delirium, paranoia, hallucinations, and severe depressive symptoms. 22
Less common reactions to antidepressant withdrawal include sudden-onset hypomania/mania, akathisia, and parkonsinism.
Guidelines for the management of antidepressant withdrawal are controversial. Schatzberg et al. 23 proposed guidelines that involved a gradual taper over abrupt discontinuation, reassurance when mild symptoms arose, and restarting the antidepressant at the lowest effective dose to ameliorate symptoms and then using a slow taper. Meta-analyses looking at gradual versus abrupt discontinuation failed to reliably demonstrate reduction of withdrawal symptoms with gradual reduction. Approaches to the management of more distressing withdrawal symptoms have included use of fluoxetine substitution (similar rationale to the use of diazepam for sedative-hypnotic withdrawal), benzodiazepines, and anticholinergic medications to reduce symptoms. Evidence for best practices for treatment of antidepressant withdrawal syndromes is lacking and treatment protocols remain pragmatic.
Similar to withdrawal from antidepressants, the withdrawal symptoms associated with antipsychotics appear to result from monoamine and receptor adaptations to drug exposure. Antipsychotics as a group, however, are more heterogeneous and complex in their pharmacodynamics. As a result, there are no similarly current or proposed diagnostic criteria for a unified antipsychotic withdrawal syndrome, and its prevalence rates are unknown. Most of what is known about antipsychotic withdrawal symptoms comes from retrospective reanalyses of trials like the Clinical Antipsychotic Trials of Intervention Effectiveness. 24
Each antipsychotic has varying degrees with which they interact with serotonergic, muscarinic, histaminergic, adrenergic, and dopaminergic receptors. Basic knowledge about relative affinities for each of these receptor types help clinicians predict a specific medication's side effects and, similarly, can be used to predict withdrawal symptoms ( Table 3 ). This type of approach is supported by both theoretical background and observational studies. 25
In general, the earliest withdrawal symptoms from antipsychotic discontinuation typically emerge within 1 to 4 days of abrupt discontinuation and tend to resolve within 2 to 3 weeks. 26 Early withdrawal symptoms are usually somatic and are related to rebound phenomena of previously antagonized receptors. For example, cessation of low-potency, highly anticholinergic, and antihistaminergic antipsychotics may result in rebound cholinergic symptoms and insomnia, respectively. As with withdrawal from TCAs, withdrawal symptoms associated with antipsychotics include myalgias, diaphoresis, malaise, rhinitis, nausea, vomiting, headaches, and increased anxiety. 26 These symptoms have been best described with chlorpromazine, but may also be expected with other lowpotency agents and the atypical antipsychotics (eg, olanzapine, quetiapine). 25,27
High-potency antipsychotics, characterized by their propensity for dopamine receptor blockade, best exemplify withdrawal symptoms unique to antipsychotics. Dopamine receptor blockade in the CNS has been shown to result in a post-synaptic "supersensitivity" of the receptor, particularly in the nigrostriatal and mesolimbic pathways. When antipsychotics are discontinued there is an abrupt increase in stimulation of these receptors by available dopamine that is thought to be responsible for rebound motor and psychotic symptoms. Motor symptoms include akathisia, dystonias, parkinsonism, and paradoxical worsening of tardive dyskinesia. 24,25,28 These motor disturbances can be transient or persistent, reversible or irreversible, and are also the best predictor of rebound psychosis. 24,25
"Supersensitivity" or rebound psychosis is defined by psychosis that emerges within the first 6 weeks after stopping an orally administered antipsychotic. 28 Rebound psychotic symptoms may also differ from those of prior psychotic episodes and respond more rapidly when the discontinued antipsychotic has been restarted. One meta-analysis found a prevalence of 25% in the first 6 weeks after abruptly stopping a typical antipsychotic, nearly double the rate when the antipsychotic was tapered gradually. 28
Clozapine is also associated with a withdrawal psychosis involving motor symptoms, despite its low affinity for dopamine D2 receptors. Clozapine is thought to induce these effects because, although it has a low D2 binding affinity, it rapidly dissociates and can repeatedly antagonize the receptor and therefore sensitize it. 29 Moreover, clozapine's strong muscarinic receptor antagonism is thought to potentiate the risk of rebound psychosis. Rates of psychosis in the first 7 days after abrupt clozapine discontinuation are as high as 13%. 28 Clozapine withdrawal is also associated with more significant symptoms of cholinergic withdrawal and it has been reported to lead to neuroleptic malignant syndrome, catatonia, and hyperthermia. 30 Withdrawal from olanzapine and quetiapine have many of the same manifestations as clozapine withdrawal, although the prevalence and severity seem to be much lower.
Little is known about the relationship between serotonin receptor subtypes and withdrawal symptoms. This makes it difficult to predict withdrawal syndromes for drugs with little effect on dopamine, histamine, and cholinergic receptors (eg, aripriprazole, lurasidone, and ziprasidone).
Given the heterogeneity of antipsychotic binding profiles, clinicians should be vigilant for the emergence of withdrawal symptoms (including psychosis) when switching from one antipsychotic to another, particularly when the agents used differ dramatically in their binding profile. There is a high risk of misattribution of these symptoms to the new medication.
As with antidepressants, there are no clear guidelines for management of antipsychotic-associated withdrawal symptoms. In general, the same approach is taken as with treating antidepressant withdrawal (provide a gradual taper schedule and supportive care). Some preliminary research has looked at the use of the anticonvulsants (eg, valproic acid, lamotrigine, gabapentin) for the treatment of severe supersensitivity motor and psychotic symptoms; however, definitive recommendations are lacking. 31
Although the specific nature of withdrawal symptoms differs based on the class of medication and receptor binding profiles, common principles apply across classes. Withdrawal symptoms can involve physical, neurologic, and psychologic features; they tend to be time-limited; and in almost all cases they appear to improve with slowing of the taper or with reintroduction of the discontinued medication. Patients should be warned about these symptoms and the clinician should be aware of their potential to emerge. The lack of clear guidelines for treatment of withdrawal symptoms is evidence for the need for further research in this area.

I confess: I am not the most coordinated of people. I tend to walk into things, trip over my feet and drop stuff. Unsurprisingly, my kit suffers for it.
Prism 100 is composed from hardy aluminium with a soft rubber head plate. This construction gives Prism 100 impressive durability. It has high resistance to impact and corrosion. So, if you are a little bit butterfingered like me, it will survive longer than most headtorches would!
With an IPX7 rating, Prism 100 can sustain being submerged in 1m of water for up to 30 minutes. So, if you drop it in the river you are crossing, it will be usable when you retireve it. The headstrap has a securing top strap making it ideal for runners, kayakers and moutaineers.
Prism 100 has a projection angle with free 180° movement and a burn time of up to 5 hours and 30 minutes. On maximum output, Prism 100 has a lighting range of 130 m. Weighing in at only 101 g, Prism 100 is a tactile 59 mm in length- fitting charmingly in the palm of your hand.
There are 4 modes of operation on Prism 100: high (100 lumens); medium (55 lumens); low (20 lumens) and 8 Hz flashing. There is also a lock mode to prevent accidental battery drainage.

Packs a punch
I bought one of these just before a night navigation course I did in preparation for my ML assessment. It was awesome and wowed everyone including our instructor. On the night nav section of ML assessment it performed superbly in foul conditions. My only niggle is that it doesn't have a zoom/wide angle option. But for the price the build and quality are unbelievable. Just buy one - you won't be disappointed.

"The launch of the 2.3 software for X10 is getting closer, and the planned release date is approx. w30. The date could still be changed, since the launch is depending on operators approval. The software will be rolled out continuously, just like the earlier 2.1 release. The exact launch date is depending on market and operators approval, so it will unfortunately not be possible to give precise information on launch dates for each market/operator. You will get more information once the roll out has started."
Week 30 of the year is actually this week, so some places might see the update rolling to their Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 handsets that are not bound by some carrier's shackles. Some of the camera UI functions were initially being dumped with the update, but Sony Ericsson's developers have put extra efforts to remedy this, and also embed the UI mostly as we see it on the Xperia arc, for example:
"The UI with the desktop layout and pinch-to-overview gesture will be similar and Gingerbread features like Wi-Fi & USB tethering, App storage on SD-card etc are included. Also the customizable horizontal app tray and the media experience widgets from the 2011 XperiaTM Products are in, including an integrated equalizer in the music player. Of course also apps that require Android versions 2.2 or 2.3 will now be possible to download from Android Market, e.g. Adobe flash.
One difference compared to the 2011 products is that DLNA will not be included. Extra type approvals were needed for that and we were unable to prioritize that without jeopardizing the time schedule. There are both server and client alternatives downloadable from Android market though."
The Facebook Inside Xperia integration will also grace the screens of those generic Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 trade kits that get the update first, and the company has even recorded a video preview of what the update will look like on the phone, which you can see below.

The Squidite is a monster from Final Fantasy Mystic Quest. It appears in the Wintry Cave and attacks with two Sparna enemies. Unlike most Water-elemental enemies, it is not weak to Thunder and Fire attacks, and can use electrical attacks itself. After it is defeated, it drops a treasure chest containing the Libra Crest.

Etymology Edit
In the Japanese release, this creature is named "Belemnitida."Belemnitida is an extinct order of cephalopods, which existed during the Mesozoic era, from the Hettangian age of the Lower Jurassic to the Maastrichtian age of the Upper Cretaceous.
The German release refers to the creature as "Oktopus," the traditional German spelling of "octopus".

Those who read my blog will know that I often complain about how compared to all other services offered via online retail, the actual process of returning a faulty or unwanted item has usually been well below par.

As reported by various online Tech journals and blogs, Amazon has announced that it is teaming up with 7-Eleven to give its customers 24/7 access to parcel collection. One of the biggest issues with online retail is ensuring that there is someone home to receive the package at the time of delivery. The cost of pin-point delivery, where you choose the exact time-slot is cost-prohibitive for most. Some people work very long hours, and have long commutes on top of their working hours, meaning that...
I always thought the BBC were the masters of live music coverage, and in many ways they still are - in terms of all the behind the scenes footage, biographies, interviews, escapades and impromptu live accoustic sets.

Most will be aware that the traditional high street record store has become an endangered species.

The world's most popular website may likely become the world's most popular marketplace. After some early intriguing experiments, more and more retailers are starting to make use of Facebook as a genuine revenue generating platform.

Verinata Enters Supply Agreement with Illumina for Sequencing Instruments
Verinata Health is purchasing Illumina's sequencing platforms and consumables under a supply agreement. Terms of the deal allows Verinata to use the Illumina technology in the commercialization of its own noninvasive prenatal test, which is in development for detection of multiple fetal chromosome abnormalities.
Verinata Health is focused on developing a single blood draw test to replace current prenatal screening methods, citing national guidelines recommending first trimester aneuploidy risk assessment. The company is conducting a prospective, blinded pivotal study to clinically validate the sensitivity and specificity of its first prenatal test on a large scale.
Verinata and Illumina say that they will work together toward gaining regulatory approval for the testing service as part of their multiyear supply agreement. "Noninvasive prenatal testing represents an exciting market for sequencing, and Illumina is pleased to enter into this supply agreement with Verinata Health for Illumina's HiSeq 2000 platform," says Jay Flatley, president and CEO of Illumina.
Caren Mason, CEO of Verinata, adds "This supply agreement is designed to provide uninterrupted access to Illumina's HiSeq™ sequencing instrument and consumables including certain updates and improvements applied to current technology. With our proprietary technology and Illumina's sequencing prowess, it is our intention to advance and improve the testing methods of today for the determination of fetal aneuploidy."

Beyond creating a straight representation, at the timeI was using a reduced palette of four colours; cadmium red, ultramarine blue, cadmium yellow and titanium white, which I settled on to see how far I could push their creative potential. While this and other paintings I did at the same time are blue themed, others I did do not necessarily reflect the blue tones seen here.

Shelf Life Blog
"We laugh and we cry."
In Tamar Myers' The Girl Who Married an Eagle, there is a lot of both.
Julia Elaine Newton has come all the way from Ohio to the Belgian Congo to save souls and teach English to young girls who are runaway child brides. She's really quite pleased with herself and thinks she knows what she's doing. It's 1959, and her spotless cotton circle skirt is just the thing to wear in Africa, comfortable and fresh, or it is until it becomes blood-soaked while she tends a future student who has been attacked by hyenas. Exquisite, brilliant, ten-year-old Buakane has run away on her marriage night from Chief Eagle, a man nearly four times her age. She is his 23rd wife.
In 1760s Boston, there is trouble brewing, and it's not just the upcoming tea party. A young and beautiful girl from a wealthy family has been murdered mysteriously. It isn't only a mystery as to who killed her and why—the bigger mystery is how. There's not a mark on her body. It seems as though it was done by magic, and, in D.B. Jackson's Thieftaker world, magic is a definite possibility.
Hawkeye: My Life as a Weapon doesn't have the slick visuals or bright colors that you would normally imagine a member of the Avengers getting. Nor does it offer a conventional superhero storyline. Clint Barton, a master archer, was created by Stan Lee in 1964. Writer Matt Fraction is breathing life into him by contrasting him with all of those other super-powered heroes.
It's bedtime, but Alice is bouncing and wide-awake. "Time for bed," Mama says, "and I've brought flowers for your room."
"I can only sleep in a blue room," says Alice.
"Blue is my favorite.
and those—
"Ah … but smell," Mama says.
Mama brings many special things to help her little girl sleep: a silken quilt; a cup of tea; bells on strings—though, as her daughter sleepily protests, none of them are blue. But at last, the light goes off, the moon shines in, and Alice gets her wish.
Madeline Hart vanishes without a trace while on a Corsican vacation in Daniel Silva's new page-turner, The English Girl. As a rising star in British politics, Madeline's disappearance is certainly troubling. But the fact that she was having a clandestine affair with Prime Minister Jonathan Lancaster—who is both married and up for reelection—adds obvious complications to the situation.
And the Mountains Echoed, by Khaled Hosseini, begins rather simply with a father telling a fairy tale. It's 1952. Saboor and his two children, sturdy Adbullah and his tiny sister Pari, are walking for days, with only a small wagon and a little food, to the great city of Kabul. Saboor tells them he is looking for work, and they believe him—why should they not? His hands are broken and calloused, his back stooped with constant labor. He is a caring father, and he is a wonderful storyteller. Around the fire that night, they realize that Saboor has never told them this particular story, one full of grief and love—the last story he will ever tell them.
If I Ever Get Out of Here centers around Lewis Blake, a Native American teenager in a gifted junior high program. Lewis might be academically successful, but he has no friends. All his white classmates don't have much to say to Lewis, and all of the kids from the reservation are just in the regular classes.
It is 1976, and living outside of Buffalo, New York, Lewis wonders if the area's teachers are going to be surprised when they find that the Native American kids are not that excited about the country's Bicentennial celebration. His family has called this land "home" for much longer than a mere two hundred years.
A birthday gift from the North Wind. A pie so feathery-light it carries people away. A cat on a mat that grants wishes to a poor girl and her grandmother. Elves in the shelves, mermaids in the bathtub and a tiger that's faster than the wind. Joan Aiken's A Necklace of Raindrops and Other Stories is a magical book that is probably one of the best read-alouds out there for kindergarten and early elementary grades.
In Alice Hoffman's The Red Garden, Hallie Brady arrives in the wilderness near Hightop Mountain in 1750. Nobody white had settled this part of Massachusetts before, and the native people who camped nearby vowed that no man would find happiness west of the mountain. Teenaged, English-born Hallie comes with her not-good-for-much husband and a couple of other families he has duped into following him in circles for days before winding up in the shadow of the mountain just as the November snows are settling in.
The Ocean at the End of the Lane, by Neil Gaiman, is a touching blend of family drama and otherworldliness. He wrote it for his wife, who does not care so much for extreme fantasy, and so he decided to include many realistic details from his own childhood. But he enriched that beginning with dark and horrific drama, as well as beauty and wisdom, and ultimately gave it an elemental, magical grounding.

Many golf players get restricted with their so-called comfort zones, which prevents them from scoring their optimum. The comfort zone creates a problem when players play better than they expect themselves to play. However, this happens only to 'general' players and not those who are professionals. Professional players are not restricted by their comfort zones. They know how to rise above it. Players need to break away from their mental barriers and get out of their comfort zone if they want to excel.
Professional golfers are successful because they know how to practice efficiently and are dedicated and focused towards perfection. They practice to improve their game continuously. This is in fact the first step develop confidence. If you want to break all restrictions, you must have a game plan and dedicatedly practice your swing. You must clear all preconceptions from your mind regarding what you can achieve and what you cannot.
To break your comfort zone and rise above it, you need to remove your self imposed restrictions. You need to first identify what is limiting you and break those unhealthy mental barriers that are hindering your success. Once you manage to do this, you can be rest assured that nothing will come between you and your success.

A serene, white home with vintage pieces
Monday, 13 February 2012
8 comments:
Ohlala, that is great!!! I think, I will have to moove all my colourful accessories, to get such a nice ambiance. What do you think about that? I am very interesting in your opinion! Should I leave my violet and turquoise accessories and leave everything in natural colours? Looking forward to your lovely answer, I remain with hugs, BarbaraReplyDeleteReplies
Morning Barbara! Hope you had a lovely weekend! Loving a style in pictures and living with a style in reality are two completely different things. I love the idea of a white, minimalist home too and then when it comes to my own space I can't help but add a little colour...then mess it up a little, etc before I know it, I'm back to the way it was before!....if you're drawn to violet and turquoise and it makes you happy in the morning then keep it -after all pastels are the colours du jour for 2012! However, if you would like a change you could re-design one room such as you bedroom to the style you're after and see how it feels. You may find just adding violet and tourquoise cushions gives you the pop of colour you need....Does anyone else have advice for Barbara? Have a lovely day! Hugs, Niki.Delete
Thank you - I agree fully with you! And I feel happy, like that! I can still change the cushions, as you say! You are so kind, I appreciate really very much your answer! Hugs, BarbaraDelete
....but why would you want your kitchen splash-back to resemble a urinal?? What is this awful penchant for these white, brick-like tiles? Horrible, ladies, just horrible!ReplyDeleteReplies
great to hear your opinion lynn :-) . I like the industrial style and these tiles remind me of London underground. I have never thought of them in the urinal way, so funny! Infact you have remind me of a vintage loo I once saw being used as a plant pot, definitely a step to far for me that time!Delete
Hah! Yes, there are plenty of oddities about, aren't there? My very favourite very bizarre public loo was in Central Park, New York, we visited it when we were there 15 years ago. Very opulent, over the top, mosaics, coloured glass baubles you name it. Totally ridiculous but strangely compelling!Delete
No, it's not that I'm against white tiles, it's just that there's so many pictures of them looking brick-like, and I'm afraid , yes, they do strike me as being reminiscent of a urinal! And not in a kitchen, surely!
There are so many great details in this home. Like the wonderful painted floors and the unpainted stair 'runner'. Glad to hear you enjoyed your spa getaway.ReplyDelete
I really love the bed in the apex. As a kid this would have been my perfect little hide-away. The interior is stunning with all unique and individual pieces of furniture and the calm white palette. Very beautiful. Thanks for a great post!ReplyDelete

Variations of Mourning
Sadness and contemplation.
Dulcet tones whisper depression –
of angry fists that bite at the moon on a low haze.
Volume: up. Blink. Destroy that
whole foundation built on colourless memories,
almost chasing steam for a pick-up.
Then it's health and respite
carries it passenger –
if only for a false reflection of time.
I left the shattered shades of the sun
upon the garden to the left,
where I hadn't seen you,
and I'd missed you amongst your roads.
Only when peace had docked
and unfolded
does the mourning return.
Not 'why happiness?'
But 'what happiness, where?'
Like tears, we drench out sad reality
with escapism in savage paint;
we buy books to read away our sins,
forgetting mourning lurks behind
our outward-turned backs.
Then sunlight is a breath before the darkness.
It forgoes memories, drenches hope
with some new flicker –
horizons on the insides of lashes.
Eyelashes. They curl like your quiff.
And breathe. It passes and it returns,
it flows and it stills. My heart: she
drums never to my own faulty footsteps.
The moon is blue and black with tepid craters
in my thoughts. Can't find the line – this way –
and anger has stronger hands.

San Jose: Prime Minister Narendra Modi here today praised the technological giants for reducing the social barriers, saying that internet connects people on the strength of human values, not just identities.
"Social media is reducing the social barriers. It connects people on the strength of human values and not just identities. Facebook, Twitter and Instagram are our new neighbourhoods," said Prime Minister Modi while speaking at the Digital India and Digital Technology Dinner here at the Silicon Valley.
"The status now is not whether you are awake or asleep, it is whether you are online or offline," he added.
Modi also said that he views technology as a mean to empower people that bridges the distance between hope and opportunity.
Modi added that since his government came to office, they have attacked poverty by using power of network and mobile phones to launch a new era of empowerment.
Earlier, Prime Minister Modi had met top tech CEOs and chairmen here.
Among the people he met were Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, Google CEO Sundar Pichai,
Adobe CEO Shantanu Narayen, CISCO CEO John T Chambers, Executive Chairman of Qualcomm Paul E Jacob and The Indus entrepreneurs president Venkatesh Shukla(ANI)

I quickly looked up to see two people fighting, and everyone stifled in smoke. This was terrifying. One second I'm talking to someone, the next i'm being chocked by a weapon not aimed at me.
Covering my mouth and nose with my hand and scarf, I run to the back of the bus, huddling up in the corner and closing my eyes. I hadn't noticed, but suddenly I was freezing. I shifted my gaze to the people in the bus, they were all shouting and yelling and getting chocked in the omnipresent smoke.
Those people were right. This isn't a normal bus, I thought. I raised my hand, and immediately made the knife fly out of the mans hand and to my side of the bus, along with all of the other weapons everyone had. I threw them all out of the window with my powers, including the smoking bomb.
Then when I was standing up and glaring fiercely, everyone turned and stared, I looked at the two people fighting and a girl who was about to smash the man's skull, "If you want all of us to die I suggest you stop this racket and let me get home! I don't want to be here any more! It's completely ridiculous! Why can't we all just greet each other properly without any arguments?!!"

Staring out across the Atlantic waves towards North Africa, the Costa de la Luz in south-west Spain feels like frontier country. Wild, often windswept and with twinkling glimpses of the Atlas mountains on the horizon, no wonder so many of its ancient towns bear the suffix "de la Frontera".
It is hard to believe sometimes that this far-flung corner of Andalucia, with its Moorish architecture and blood-drenched history, is a part of Europe. The road, rail and air links being poor until recently has served only to emphasise the sense of isolation, of difference. Slowly but inevitably, however, this last Spanish costa to succumb to the developers' concrete-mixers is being "discovered".
Until January this year there were just two flights a week to Jerez de la Frontera airport from Britain. Now there are a staggering 16 with budget airlines alone. Many of the roads, once barely more than tracks or death-trap single-carriageways, have been upgraded; there is even talk of extending the AVE fast-train service as far as Cadiz. Yet, stricter planning laws and tough building restrictions within the two national parks, just behind the coast, have miraculously helped to preserve the "Coast of Light" and its hinterland from the worst ravages of mass tourism.
Any development, such as on the stretch west of Huelva, is restricted to three storeys; and it is virtually impossible in many areas to buy any building land at all. From Ayamonte on the Portuguese border down to Tarifa - 11km across the Straits of Gibraltar to the Moroccan coast - there is a string of popular and picturesque fishing villages and beautiful historic towns which have managed to retain their character and "Spanishness".
The Madrilenos flock here in the hot summer months, but without the same foreign interest as in the neighbouring Costa del Sol. Property prices remain at least 30 per cent lower, even on the coast. Go inland a few miles and houses are cheaper still, with perhaps one exception: Vejer de la Frontera, the hilltop pueblo blanco made famous by a car ad involving narrow winding streets and rampaging bulls. Vejer, with its old quarter of Moorish whitewashed houses arranged around internal patios, has been gentrified and even anglicised over the past few years. Its quainter houses have been snapped up by foreigners for ever-increasing sums, pushing the locals out to modern developments on the outskirts. Now rarely available, even a small, three-bedroom house here can cost up to £180,000, which is an astronomical sum in these parts.
But while Vejer has already had its boom, there are plenty of other places that are as yet untouched by the Farrow & Ball paint brigade. Medina Sidonia is handily close to the airport at Jerez but untroubled by its noise; it is a bustling, aristocratic old town with grand, historic houses, just half an hour from the coast.
"Medina is fast becoming more popular because it's the first town off the airport motorway and very beautiful," says Matthew Coman, a musician who lives nearby and helps foreigners buy property in the region through his location firm, Matt's Spain. "It's a town that's just snowballed over the past six months as people realise how wonderful it is." Coman says that a typical three-bedroom, Moorish-style house in Medina would cost £100,000. A huge, grand old house in need of renovation is currently on the market for €150,000 (£104,000) through Country Properties.
Even the spectacular white towns of Arcos de la Frontera and Ronda, with its steep gorge, are really good value, Coman says, with two-bedroom flats still going for £60,000. A traditional Andalucian house in Arcos, with magnificent views, its own sherry cave next door (with another two bedrooms), spiral staircase, gardens, garage and plunge pool, is on the market for €275,000 through Cadiz Properties. Another in the town's old quarter, in need of some cosmetic work but with four bedrooms, is on sale for €95,000.
Not far from the town, but with 27,000sq m of land and breathtaking views over the nearby lake, is another property, half old, half new-build. The older part is currently used for storing wine barrels, but on conversion could make a huge additional living space. It is on the market for €204,000 through Cadiz Properties. Surrounded by lush, green valleys, these towns are hugely popular with walkers, although potential buyers should be warned that their beauty comes at a price, as some have the highest rainfall in Spain. "The clouds coming in from the Atlantic and the Mediterranean meet at this point and just dump any rain on the land underneath," warns Coman. Drier and hotter - although still cooler than the Mediterranean coast, thanks to the Atlantic breeze - is the so-called "sherry triangle" which stretches from Jerez to Sanlucar de Barrameda in the north, down to El Puerto in the south. Dotted with beautiful bodegas (sherry's answer to wine chateaux and equally grand), this land oozes with the wealth of the great sherry families known locally as pijos, or toffs.
The young pijos hang out in El Puerto, a bustling summer town, right on the coast, much loved by the painter Goya; it is known as the town of 100 palaces, because of its grand architecture. Some of the larger properties have 60 or 70 rooms, and a few are now divided into elegant apartments. One two-bedroom, top-floor flat here, with towering ceilings, palatial rooms and two balconies, recently sold for £110,000. Five minutes away in the car is one of the finest beach resorts in Spain, but again almost exclusively Spanish. Vistahermosa boasts a pretty beach, reached by a grand, prestigious avenue, flanked by old, elegant beach villas with mature gardens and price-tags (when, rarely, they come to the market) of about £500,000.
Down the coast is the historic, walled city of Cadiz, vibrant and weather-beaten; perched on a peninsula, it is reputedly the oldest town in western Europe. Surrounded by its own marvellous beaches, it has recently been galvanised by a huge facelift mostly funded by the EU, and its grand old houses are sparkling once again. Prices have shot up here recently but are still extraordinarily good value.
A two-bedroom flat with lift (rare and highly prized in Cadiz) on one of the most prestigious streets in town, Calle Ancha, just sold for £150,000. Most, however, barely scrape through £100,000, even in the best parts of town. Most sought-after, are the 300 torres, or towers, on some of the grandest roof terraces. With 360-degree views of the sea, private roof terraces and spiral staircases, these towers are the height of fashion and can cost up to £300,000.
South of Cadiz are more resorts, although beyond Cabo de Trafalgar the Atlantic winds can get a little too fresh. One, Conil de la Frontera, with a Blue Flag beach, is now a little touristy, but a good sea-view, two-bedroom flat will still cost £130,000. Perhaps better to explore El Palmar, a sleepy seaside village with just a couple of good fish restaurants and a wild, virgin beach. Long may it stay that way.

Stolen Wedding Ring
Someone stole my ring tonight at "Planet Fitness" in Bountiful. If anyone knows anything about this PLEASE PLEASE let me know!! They just stole a huge part of my... heart.

Contact Bountiful Police Dept if you have information.
Thank you

Presenting some really cool home products as showcased on Better Living through Design. What I love about the products showcased in this post is that they are simple, very practical, yet great to look at and acquire for your home!
Unfortunately, a lot of the product manufacturers do not ship to India directly. So the options are:
- Browse Better Living Through Design and order for these to an address in the US from where you could get the product shipped to India
- Try recreating it on your own. Read my expert (ahem!) DIY tips...
What a great idea for apartment dwellers! Designed to straddle the railing of a balcony, the pots are made from water-resistant polyethylene
DIY - Would be tough to get this made in polyethylene yourself (unless you know a manufacturer!) - try it out in fiber glass.
And, here is another option for simple, but oh so chic shelves!
Lamps...with holes :) ...this reminds me of the quick fix Rangoli maker somehow
This is one of my favorites! I love the natural look and feel. This table/console has been made of concrete
And finally, monsoon has arrived in India! Umbrellas are out, and who wouldn't love a self respecting umbrella which can stand on it's two feet...i.e. stand on its own little stand!

FAIRFAX, Va. - Last year saw an unprecedented spike in the resurgence of bed bugs, with one in five Americans reporting they have had an infestation or know someone who has encountered bed bugs at home or in a hotel, according to a survey by the National Pest Management Association (NPMA).
In response, NPMA has partnered with the American Hotel and Lodging Association, the National Apartment Association, the Association of College and University Housing Officers International, and the U.S. EPA's Pesticide Environmental Stewardship Program to deliver a series of workshops across the country to educate property and facility managers on how they can effectively respond to the threat of bed bugs.
From identifying bed bugs to inspection techniques to public relations issues and legal ramifications, NPMA has gathered nationally-recognized experts to provide management tips, both preventative and corrective, to help these groups make informed decisions and stay out of the newspaper – and the courtroom.
The following dates and locations have been confirmed for the Bed Bug workshop series. For the most up-to-date information, visit www.npmapestworld.org/events/bedbugworkshop.cfm.

Lessons from the Sequester and the Shutdown
At a press conference this week, President Barack Obama imagined the possibility of a government default in personal terms.
"Imagine, in your private life, if you decided that I'm not going to pay my mortgage for a month or two," the president said. "First of all, you're not saving money by not paying your mortgage. You're just a deadbeat. And you can anticipate that will hurt your credit, which means that in addition to the debt collectors calling, you're going to have trouble borrowing in the future."
The truth is that during the Great Recession, a number of Americans had to make tough choices on whether and how to pay their debts, and the best ways to cut household spending, without automatic cuts through sequestration or shutdowns.
As for the federal government, while few economists would argue that automatic spending cuts are the best way to reduce wasteful spending, the cuts are in effect.
Nick Gillespie, editor in chief of Reason.com and Reason TV, and Ryan Alexander, president of Taxpayers for Common Sense, examine what the federal government has learned from the sequester and the shutdown, with regard to government waste versus programs that are worth it.

The jury in the hacking trial has been instructed to ignore "deeply prejudicial" social media reaction to a Christmas card sent out by the Labour MP Nick Brown featuring pictures of David Cameron and Rebekah Brooks.
The nine men and three women on the jury were shown the Christmas card on a tablet by counsel for Brooks, who pointed out that Brown was a former Labour party chief whip.
Justice Saunders told the jury they should "take no notice whatsoever" of social media posts about it, pointing out that sometimes posts were published by "people who ought to know better".
After brief legal discussion that delayed the resumption of the trial on Friday afternoon, Saunders sought to explain the situation to the jurors.
"It has been brought to my attention there are things on [social media] which are deeply prejudicial to Mrs Brooks. We are saying it because you may come across it or can't avoid coming across it.
"I am sure you understand that you should ignore them and take absolutely no notice of them whatsoever."
The judge – who is presiding over the case involving seven defendants including Brooks and her husband Charlie Brooks – warned the jury: "You should try this case on the evidence alone", adding: "Things are sometimes done, and by people who ought to know better."
He explained that what Jonathan Laidlaw, QC, for Brooks was showing them on his iPad was a "Christmas card from a Labour MP".
He added: "It may be he [Brown] never intended this to get out into public consumption but it's got there and that's how it happened.
"The important thing is you simply ignore things like that."
Before the trial started, solicitor general Oliver Heald wrote to the three main parties and the speakers of the Commons, calling on them to refrain from any comment on the case.

Disguising the Tentacles
What has eight legs and is smarter than your average reality television star? If you guessed the octopus, the most popular of the cephalopods, you get the prize. The tentacled undersea creature has long held the fascination of scientists, and for Dr. Roger Hanlon, the attraction began in his late teenage years when he explored coral reefs in Panama. I swam over a little shallow tide pool, and suddenly water was jetted onto my belly and I practically shot out of the water. This little one-pound octopus scared the daylights out of a 190-pound college guy. It came out of its hole and moved across the reef with the most amazing camouflage. I was completely blown away, he recalls. The ability to disguise itself is one of the octopuss most fascinating displays of intelligence, and it is the topic of Hanlons free lecture at the University of Miami Rosensteil School of Marine & Atmospheric Science (RASMAS) campus.
