Another successful outing for the Knuts this year. As usual thanks go to Geoff Pearson for organizing the trip and to John Lynas for running the competitions.
The weather was good to us with temperatures of around 25° – 27° throughout.
The hotel, NH Marbella, was extremely good. Comfortable beds, for the time we actually spent in them, and excellent breakfasts. It was also located a five minute walk from the beach and 10 minutes to the nearest bar!
We played two courses: Santa Clara first, where the greens were rather poor to say the least. This was followed by Rio Real, which proved to be much better all round.
Winners of the silly trousers were Dylan O'Neill for day one, Philip McCrery day two and the overall winner was David Winning.
A short note to mark the passing of Ken Skelton, Skeltie., late of East Antrim Hockey Club and even later of North Belfast Harriers.
Ken died peacefully on 5 May 2015 in the NI Hospice having partially fought of a tumor on the spine and then succumbing to one on the brain.
A great sportsman and snooker player, he once beat Alex Higgins, he will be remembered with great fondness by members of the hockey club who attended his funeral in force.
All sympathy to his wife Val and the rest of the family.
Seem to have neglected adding photos of the family over the past few months, or even years maybe!
Our youngest great-granddaughter is now 8 months old and our youngest son will be 30 next year!
The Ross Park Hotel in Ballymena was chosen for the 2014 bash and a very good one it turned out to be.
A bus was laid on to transport us to and from the do so our evening started at the club for a couple of warmers into the bank. Amazingly enough there was no problem getting the group of some 50+ embarked on time. Or maybe they were just scared of Anne Clarke!
There was champagne, or non alcoholic punch if you like that kind of thing, served on arrival and a photographer to record proceedings – Well the early parts anyway. One does not really want a photographer recording all one's antics!!
The service and meal, a proper vegetable soup followed by roast beef and a dessert, could not be faulted and the bar prices were reasonable. What more could one ask for a start to the main proceedings.
The group proved to be a great success so, by the time the bus arrived to ferry us home, we had danced our feet off.
Thanks to George Boyd, Anne Clarke and the organizers for producing a great evening all round.
This is an unashamed plug for Andrew's hair salon on the Lisburn Road, opposite the PSNI barracks for ease of locating it if you do not have a Satnav.
There is a really friendly atmosphere and the quality of the service, and the hairdressing, could not be rivaled.
Try it out.
The annual BBQ for the CSCRD is now back in the diary. The sun shone on the righteous and all went well.
The proceedings opened at 2 p.m. with jugs of Pimms NO 1, poured into glasses, not each! The menu included stuffed herrings, tiger prawns in a spiced coconut marinade, rib-eye steaks in a whiskey marinade ribs and a selection of deserts made by the ladies.
As is common practice at our meetings the ladies and gents sections hold separate discussions and this avoids any dissention and we are able to solve the worlds problems.
Fortunately no minutes were kept, but I can report that we adjourned at approximately 9.0 p.m
We stopped for a day in Istanbul on our way back from Nepal.
What a contrast, wide dual carriageways lined with flower beds and central reservations crowded with daffodils and tulips.
The overall impression was of a modern and spectacularly clean city.
We were booked into the Amiral Palace Hotel, a stones throw from the Blue Mosque. This is a really nice "boutique" hotel and our only reservation was the size of the room. For an overnight, or possibly a couple of nights it was quite adequate but if one has a couple of cases and a few changes of clothes it is a bit tight. The staff were friendly and helpful and duty manager suggested that, as we were only in the city for one night we must take a Bosporus Dinner cruise.
After a stroll around the local souk we took a couple of hours nap and were then picked up by the minibus to take us to the jetty.
On arrival we were a little apprehensive as to how the evening would progress as we we were shown to a table the occupants of which were at least 30 years our junior. We need not have worried, there were three Algerians, three Moroccans, a couple of Indians and a lone Japanese/American lass, all of whom immediately made us welcome.
The dinner was very good with a choice of local fish or chicken as the main course and there were a couple of large glasses of wine included.
The cabaret also turned out to be quite a class act with a belly dancer providing the main turn.
There was not too much commentary on the passing sights but nobody really noticed. Altogether a very pleasant evening.
The next morning we walked up to the Blue Mosque an around the square before our taxi arrived to take us back to the Airport.
We will be back I'm sure.
If you just want the complete photo archive there is a link to the album at the end.
The post includes some photos most relevant to the text also, rather than fill the post with a host of details, I have inserted links to the relevant websites for the hotels and all the major attractions we visited. There are also some reviews on tripadvisor. Read on, or skip to the photo link!
My 70th birthday holiday was planned to fulfill two aim: the first to visit the homeland of the Gurkhas, with whom I served in Borneo in '65/'66, and their Museum in Pokhara and, secondly, to go paragliding from Sarangkot. We abandoned a guided tour option and decided to to see how things would pan out flying to Kathmandu for a few days and then on to Pokhara and finally back to Kathmandu.
We flew Turkish Airlines from Dublin, via Istanbul and I would recommend them for service and efficiency. We arrived at 6.15 a.m. but it was nearly two hours clearing passport control and immigration.
Getting your visa is wild – Make sure you have two passport photos (there is a guy there who will take them on the spot – at a price), the right fee (preferably in US dollars) and are in the right queue for the period that you intend to stay in Nepal. Any deviation will mean joining another seemingly interminable line of travelers!
Having finally negotiated the carousel we were accosted by a taxi agent who, having commandeered a car, escorted us to the hotel, keeping up a barrage of information and insisting that he could arrange our whole stay in Nepal. Having arrived at the hotel, the Tibet International, we told him to come back that evening with a proposal.
Of course it being early morning we were unable to get a room and the manager suggested we visit the Boudhanath near the hotel, First though we visited the roof top restaurant for breakfast.
Our friendly tour guy returned in the evening with his boss Dinesh and we were driven to Thamel, the tourist hub of Kathmandu, to their offices, Osho VisionTrecks. Dinesh went through the various options and we finally agreed a programme for the whole of our stay including taxi excursions each day to the many historic sites, flight to view Everest, air transfers to and from Pokhara, paragliding from Sarangkot and final transfer back to Kathmandu international at the end – all in £800. It proved to be money very well spent.
Driving around the Kathmandu valley is like being conducted through a building site. With a few exceptions there doesn't seem to be more than 500 metres of paved road before it becomes a bone rattling cart track and there are buildings in various states of renovation everywhere.
Our second day started at the World Heritage Site of Pashupatinath a Temple complex dedicated to the Hindu God Shiva and the venue for Hindu cremations which are conducted on a 24 hour, seven day week basis.
We spent some time touring the complex with the help of an unofficial guide who insisted that she was "just talking to us". Only licensed guides are officially allowed on the site. The tour included visiting the old peoples home where some local dancers were entertaining the residents.
From here we moved on to Rudravarna Mahavihar, one of the oldest monasteries in Patan (Official name Lalitpur), the city of fine arts, and one of the three Royal Cities in Nepal. Reputedly over 1500 years old It was one of the most striking of the many buildings in Patan.
Just round the corner from this is a terracotta temple dating from 1585, the Mahabouddha, which has thousands of images of Buddha engraved into its surface. It was rebuilt in 1934 after being ruined in an earthquake but there were no original plans and there were enough bricks left over to build a small shrine to Maya Devi, Buddha's mother.
From here it is a short journey to Patan Durbar Square, the hub of the city, full of ancient shrines, temples and monuments as well as the many local shops. We stopped for lunch at a local restaurant overlooking the entrance to the square and then acquired ourselves one of the official guides to take us round.
This was the last stop of the day and we returned to the hotel for dinner and a well earned rest.
The next morning we were collected at 6.30 a.m. for the short journey to the domestic airport for our excursion on the "Mountain Flyer", an 19 seat Beechcraft 1900C, the flight along the Himalaya to view Everest from a unique angle. A really wonderful experience and for Josephine possibly the highlight of the whole trip.
After this experience we returned to the hotel for breakfast and a couple of hours recuperation and the we were off again to visit the Narayanhiti Palace Museum. It wasn't until we were almost at the end that we discovered that, in 2001, the whole of the Nepalese royal family were murdered by the heir apparent after a family dispute. No photography is allowed in this modern relic of Nepalese politics.
From here we moved on to see the Buddha Park, a haven of peace,
before moving on to the "Monkey Temple" or Swayambhunath, a hilltop complex which, as you may gather from the name, is alive with holy monkeys. Do not attempt to eat ice cream anywhere in their vicinity as you will have it snatched from your hand as soon as you are distracted.
Of course being a temple there are a lot of steps, 365 to be exact, to negotiate! Apart from the central Stupa there are many smaller ones, the Herati Devi being dedicated to the goddess of smallpox and epidemics!
We took a late lunch and returned to the hotel to recuperate.
Next morning, my birthday, started with the staff at breakfast presenting me with a cake and ritual white scarf. Today was booked for Bhaktapur, about 15 kilometers from Kathmandu. It is the largest of the Newa towns and was capital of Nepal during the latter half of the 15th century ,
The drive to get there was somewhat interesting as, apparently the direct route was closed so we had to make a detour
Our taxi driver had organised his younger brother, a registered tourist guide, to escort us. He was not only knowledgeable but spoke perfect English which mad the whole experience more enjoyable.
Bhaktapur is similar to Patan but on a much larger scale and it was as much the people,
local businesses
and shops
that provided some of the most memorable experiences.
Water is still drawn form wells.
Animals are still sacrificed to the Hindu Gods in Nepal and entrails may be hung on the temple.
A custom that would definitely be frowned upon in the west is the practice of covering a baby in mustard oil and putting he, or she, out in the sun to darken the skin.
Apparently the more modern mothers now us baby oil instead of mustard oil!!
Whilst in Bhaktapur we visited a Thanka Painting school and ended up buying a Mandala, or Circle of Life painting. I have admired them for years in various parts of the Far East but watching them being painted finally convinced me I needed one!
We finally left the wonders of this amazing town and headed for hilltop village of Nagarkot for a late lunch. The clouds made getting a good photo difficult but the views across the valleys were worth the journey, as was the lunch.
And that was another day over.
Our last day in Kathmandu was spent in the city area. We passed some terrace housing on our way the Hanuman Dhoka
situated on the Eastern side of
the Kathmandu Durbar square. This is the gateway to the Royal Palaces which house the Kathmandu museum.
The square itself has the usual collection of temples and a large statue of Kala Bhairav or the Lord Shiva in his frightening aspect
And thus ended the first phase of our holiday
Next morning we took the Simrik Airlines Beech 1900 flight to Pokhara.
This is a half hour flight which can be a little bumpy at times, but one hardly notices it as there are some spectacular views out of the windows.
Having landed and collected our baggage we were met by our taxi man who would be our guide for this stage of the holiday.
We drove off to our hotel, or so we thought. Thirty five minutes later we arrived at a parking area alongside a couple of fairly shabby hotels. Josephine's comment was, "what have you brought me to!!" However, it turned out to be the way to the Begnas Lake mooring point where our ferry was waiting to take us to the resort.
Twenty five minutes later we had our first view of the Begnas Lake Resort.
What nobody had told us and did not seem to appear anywhere on TripAdvisor is that there are 109 steps up from the landing stage to the Reception. Nor did it mention that from Reception to the road there are 274 steps up!! Do not let this deter you, the service and the food are beyond reproach.
Our room, number 33, had a large bath,
and a large bed
and not a bad view from the balcony
After settling in we thought we would try the steps up to the top road which turned out to take us thirty minutes with stops for breath at each bench, about 50 steps apart. By the time we left we had it down to 10 minutes!!
That was enough for one day so we repaired to the bar for a well earned beer.
The bar boy turned out to be a Liverpool supporter – not that you'd ever guess!
Suitably exhausted we retired for the night.
Day seven was scheduled to take in the Gurkha museum and to go paragliding from Sarangkot and our ferry back to Begnas Bazaar and our taxi was booked for 7.30 am.
We visited a Hindu shrine on the way
and then the land rover picked me up for the trip to Sarangkot. They did not mention a this point that the last 750 metres to the take off zone had to be made on foot. This was a near vertical climb which, even if I had had a camera with me, I would have been too knackered to use!!
My reply to the "flight marshal's" query, " Are you sure you are OK?" was " I made it didn't I!"
And so my pilot, connected me up and we took off
It was a pity that the weather was not better as we did not get the stunning views of the mountains as a backdrop but the climb up to 2400 metres into the cloud base was something else. As was the descent. As seen on the video which follows:
And we landed safely without incident.
From here we drove back into Pokhara and visited the Gurkha Memorial Museum.
This is really worth a visit even if you do not have the interest that I have. The section on the Borneo campaign was particularly relevant to me.
From here we went to a Nepalese fast food restaurant where the order of the day is a Thali Set, which is a combination plate for which one can get unlimited refills. Meal for three at less that £5.00!
And so back to the resort.
The next day we visited the world peace pagoda, see the first picture. As usual this involved climbing a long way up and even longer down.
We decided that, given the state of the approach road it would be better to walk down to where the tarmac started!
Having negotiated this we called in at a local supermarket and picked up a couple of bottles of wine and then had lunch at another establishment that served the Thali.
From here we went to the Devi Falls. As a tourist attraction I found it a little disconcerting to discover that the name is derived from the fact that a girl of this name drowned whilst swimming on one of the pools.
From here we visited the Tibetan refugee reservation where, amongst other enterprises, they have a carpet weaving workshop. Needless to say we now have a hand made runner on our landing.
The following day was planned for the paragliding experience and
The next day, sitting on the breakfast terrace, the morning view of Annapurna appearing out of the mist was an experience not to be missed.
The view changes from minute to minute and occasionally one get the reflected view in the lake.
We then decided that we would spend the rest of our time at the resort walking in the surrounding area rather than bouncing around in a taxi. Also, although the weather was pleasant at around 23º – 25ºC the cloud base was too low to provide classic sunrise/sunset views from Sarangkot.
We had some stunning views and also some insight into local life.
The three pictures here are of one of two girls who spent each day moving boulders about 60 yards to a building site. They carried about three boulders per load! The loader varied between this woman and a man. When not carrying their loads they could be seen chatting away on their mobile phones.
The came across all sorts of occupations as we went along:
road gangs.
National Grid engineers
Sweetcorn de huskers
And of course there is the local Co-op
We also encountered some of the smaller local life
On our final day in Pokhara we took the paddle boat to the Tal Barahi Temple on Lake Fewa
It is great spot for just sitting and watching the world go by
We flew back to Kathmandu to spend our last two days at the Gokrana Forest Resort, a complex a few kilometers out of the city and, as the name suggest, set a Forest reserve. there is a championship golf course attached but I did not take up the challenge.
In fact we spent the two days lounging around in the grounds watching the monkeys and getting a massage prior to the flight home. It is an excellent hotel with helpful staff and wonderful food. The security guards carry catapults rather than guns!!
And so ended two great weeks of exotic sights, sounds and smells.
See the photos at Google + The header picture for the post is the 15th century carved wooden Peacock Window in Bhaktapur, known locally as the Mona Lisa of Nepal.
Just the place to relax. Apart from the taxi not being at Dalaman airport which was a bit of a letdown we had a pretty uneventful journey to this beautiful bay to the south of Fethiye.
Ölüdeniz has most things one could want. A plethora of restaurants and bars, sunshine and friendly local populace.
Our idea was to laze about and take a few excursions and meet up with an old friend who has a apartment in Üzümlü, a pretty mountain village about 40 minutes on the bus from Fethiye.
We duly booked to visit The Saklikent Gorge and Tlos, an ancient Lycian Citadel on one day and also a two day excursion to Ephesus, the Roman capital of Asia Minor, and Pamukkale where Cleopatra was reputed to have taken the hot springs and St Philip was martyred.
The great thing about Turkey, apart from the weather and the food, is it's wealth of history.
Of course there had to be another distraction! Ölüdeniz is a centre for paragliding, due to a 2000 metre mountain directly behind the town and reputedly the best thermals in Europe.
The sky is full of parachutes from dawn to dusk. Needless to say I got hooked on the idea and had to give it a try. The most hair-raising part of the whole adventure was the ride to the take off platform in a minibus. Once that was over the walking off the the edge of the mountain was a doddle!! The 25 minute descent was just mind blowing. Click the photo for the video experience.

Flo Rida's "Can't Believe It" Illustrates Changing Perceptions of Beauty and the Rise of the Booty
A few months ago, we posted this piece, an investigation of the rise of the booty and what American men's new found fascination for women well-endowed in the behind department says about the changeability of society's perception of beauty. Since then we've seen more and more evidence to suggest that America's perception of what makes a woman beautiful is being influenced by its increasing diversity. First we had this video from Major Lazer, which found three white girls discovering the joys of booty shaking, and now we have a new piece from Flo Rida and Pitbull – an ode to that surest sign of increasing diversity, the white booty.
Both video's are evidence of the same trend: the increasing popularity of a more full-bodied look, best characterized by the bootylicious action illustrated in each video. Perhaps not coincidentally, "Can't Believe It" has inspired ire from Diplo, who has taken to Twitter to accuse Flo Rida of "ripping off my video" and has threatened to "toilet paper the trees in front of flo-rida mansion." Check out the video and decide for yourself whether the similarity is a product of the big booty fad or straight up theft.

UK: Honda hybrids top 100,000 units
By just-auto.com editorial team | 23 May 2005
Honda has announced that sales of its Honda's Integrated Motor Assist (IMA) petrol electric hybrid cars have topped the 100,000 mark after six years.
To date, America has been the biggest market for Honda's hybrids accounting for almost 90% of Honda's global hybrid sales: last year the company sold more than 27,000 Insight, Civic and Accord IMAs in America alone.
But Britain has been an important secondary market. Alone the UK accounts for more than half of Honda IMA sales in Europe, with more than 2,000 sold in Britain since September 2000.
"We are pleased to see more and more British customers embracing IMA technology as a means of improving fuel economy, reducing emissions and helping the environment," says Honda's Environment Manager, John Kingston.

Know More on Women's Health
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is a condition that presents with a wide variety of discomforts and unpleasant symptoms related to the periods. At least three in four menstruating women have experienced some form of premenstrual syndrome at least once in their lives. The symptoms may range from slightly evident to intense. Treatments and lifestyle adjustments can help in reducing and managing the symptoms of premenstrual syndrome. Ayurveda does not have a standard definition for PMS but it is defined as a group of symptoms associated with diseases related to periods.
The exact cause of PMS is unknown but there may be several factors that can lead to this condition. Some of these include the hormonal ups and downs. These fluctuations may occur regularly with each cycle. These fluctuations disappear with pregnancy and menopause. PMS is sometimes a cover for underlying depression. There may be alteration of the brain chemicals like serotonin, which may affect the mood and lead to PMS.
There are a wide range of symptoms related to PMS. Some of these include –
In some women, the symptoms may be disabling every month. This form of PMS is called premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). In PMDD there may be mood swings, anxiety, depression, anger, irritability and tension.
In most women lifestyle changes are enough to combat PMS. However when the symptoms are disabling a visit to the doctor may be necessart. There are no tests to diagnose this condition specifically. Your doctor will look at your symptoms and rule out your underlying diseases like depression or anxiety.
Lifestyle changes (Vihar) and diet (Ahar) may be enough in most women to help reduce symptoms of PMS. Sometimes, one or more medications (Aushadhi) may be recommended, depending on the severity of the symptoms.
Ayurveda recommends right dietary and lifestyle changes along with herbs to promote a healthy pregnancy.
Dietary advice includes –
During the first trimester Ayurveda emphasizes on nourishing rasa and rakta dhatu, that is blood and blood plasma. This means diet should be rich in juicy fruits, coconut water, herbal infusions (raspberry leaf, nettle, oatstraw). Milk and ghee should be included in diet.
According to Ayurveda following lifestyle changes to be made:
The mother's body changes significantly during second trimester. The discomforting symptoms of the first trimester like morning sickness, fatigue, bloating etc are typically lower during this time. It is sometimes the easiest of the three trimesters of pregnancy. During this time the baby grows rapidly. Some of the maternal changes include
Ayurveda suggests following diet recommendation post-delivery:
Ayurveda suggests simple diet changes to prevent acidity. Few of them are:
Ayurveda and general medicine recommend a dietary plan for pregnant women with constipation. This includes –
Lifestyle suggestions:
Dysmenorrhoea refers to painful menstruation that is periods with menstrual cramps. These pains are typically throbbing or cramping pains in the lower abdomen. These pains are usually apparent just before and during the menstrual periods in most women who suffer from dysmenorrhea. The pain may range from annoying or a discomfort to severe so that it may be difficult to do you daily routine for few days every month. In some women, the cause of dysmenorrhea may be endometriosis or uterine fibroids while in young girls ovulatory cycles, pin hole and other psychological factors may cause the condition.
In Ayurvedic classics, menstrual pain which is so severe that you cannot do daily activities is termed as dysmenorrhea (Kashtartava). According to Ayurvedic text there are many other diseases in which Kashtartava is considered and is described as a symptom. According to Ayurveda, aggravation of vata and pitta dosha are the main causes of menstrual diseases.
For women with endometriosis, regular rest is important. Women should avoid exercise during menstruation and should keep their exercise relatively moderate throughout the month. In general also, strenuous physical activity, prolonged standing etc may be avoided during periods.
Forms of exercise that regulate the flow of Vata and nourish the nervous system such as walking, swimming, Tai chi, Qigong and some forms of yoga are advisable.
Regularity in daily routine (going to bed and waking up at a similar time each day and regular meal times) is very important for calming aggravated Vata, as is regular self-abhyanga / warm oil massage.
According to Ayurveda, Vandhyatva or Female infertility is a disease of the reproductive system involves the failure to achieve a pregnancy or a live offspring. Infertility exists when a healthy couple is unable to achieve pregnancy after two or more years or fail to conceive for several years after the first delivery.
The causes of infertility may lie in the male partner or in the female partner. Possible causes of male infertility include –
The causes of female infertility include –
Some general causes of infertility include:-
Long term diseases, psychological or environmental factors may cause infertility in both men and women. With age fertility usually declines.
Menopause is a natural physiological state. It is defined as occurring 12 months after a woman's last menstrual period and marks the end of menstrual cycles. Menopause can happen in the 40s or 50s. It is a natural biological process that ends the fertility. However it is no reason not to stay healthy and vital.
Ayurveda describes menopause as a normal stage of life that comes with aging. 'Vata' increased during the later years of life. Hence symptoms of menopause experienced by some women are similar to the symptoms seen when the Vata dosha rises and upsets the normal balance of the body. Vata-type menopausal symptoms are depression, anxiety, and insomnia (not able to sleep properly). There can be involvement of more than one dosha in menopause. Women with Pitta-type symptoms are often angry and suffer hot flashes. Kapha type symptoms include low mood, weight gain, and feelings of mental and physical heaviness.

I'm so frustrated with the coughing. My soon-to-be-nurse roommate recommended some cough medicine. Now, I feel like I'm barely here.
I think that means it's time for bed.
I've moved locations!

Great location. The 'happy hour' cocktails are terrible. The breakfast is from 7-9 which is not very convenient because this is a 'party' hotel and no one is awake by 9 am. The shuttle to the airport was reliable. The cd player in the room is good. The room like it was done by 'Trading Spaces'. There is neat design but lacking in quality. The shower is tiny and there is no storage space or area to put a laptop. I did not bring my laptop because there is $15 per day charge for internet which is a little steep. Housekeeping would come at 6 pm which was a little odd. You can rent bikes free for the first two hours but it is $20 per hour after that. Nikki beach club was amazing! it was really nice to take a cab there and lay out on the lounge chairs all day. There are some great restaraunts and clubs a short walk away. Take advantage of the hotel's access to passes to clubs. You have to ask for them though.

I set to write a poem here,
To fill with measured, metered lines
The blank horizon of a page
That's unsubmissive to my mind.
I have no Muses to invoke
To aid me in this toilsome task,
To grant my pen effulgent wings,
Like Hermes' shoes, if I but ask.
The gods of old are silent now,
And truth be told, they never spoke;
The genius of the poet blind
Alone was needed to invoke.
He took his gift, God-given grace,
To speak, to write, in words like gold
That turned themselves to miracles
In hearing of those men of old.
Yet I've one Spirit to invoke,
Thrice-holy and immortal, He--
But does He deign to bless with grace
Such rank and dogg'rel lines as these?
No gift like Homer's bear I here,
But I've a blessing more than he:
I know my Muse, and He knows me,
In word and breath, eternally.
The online scriptorium of author and pastor Matthew Burden
Reflections on the Christian Life
Note to My Readers: from mid-June to mid-August (6/18 - 8/20), I will be taking a summer break from posting new articles for my Thursday and Friday slots. This will only affect my Thursday series on the global growth of Christianity, and my Friday series, the "Theological Bestiary" of birds, both of which will resume in late August. During the summer, I'll be dusting off some of my best essays from the first few years of this blog (a decade ago), as well as my verse play "Thus Ends the World," and re-posting them in the Thursday and Friday slots. All other weekdays will continue to feature new material throughout the summer.

If you're looking for professional video production for your company you've slightly over-navigated and you should click here to visit the 'Services' page. This 'Videos' page was created to profile assorted projects that I produced on my spare time for fun. Many of which were created, produced and screened in a 48 hour period. Read on for a short blurb about the videos or you can jump directly to the video using the links provided in the left hand navigation bar.
This is a quick edit featuring some of my favourite shots from the 2011 winter and spring. I'm having a great time playing with the seasonal timelapses.
2011 Winter and Spring shots from Paul Cotton on Vimeo.
'balance' is a look into the rapidly growing world of newschool skiing.
As the title suggests, this short film was edited to profile all aspects
of the sport. Big Mountain Lines, Terrain Parks & Half Pipes, and
Jibbing. With a refreshing mix of high energy shots cut to an upbeat
soundtrack, the audience is challenged to judge whether these athletes
are crazy or just extremely talented, or maybe both. The athletes balance
their desire to progress their skills with the obvious safety risks associated
with high calibre skiing. The technicality of these disciplines is often
overlooked by the general public so again a balance was needed to keep
the entertainment value high enough to suit a non-skier but also technical
enough to intrigue the most elite of freeskiers.
This footage was shot primarily in British Columbia's Coastal Range, the Monashee Mountain Range and the Canadian Rockies.
'balance' won the Peoples Choice award at Festival Auron in France in April 2006
It also won best documentary in the Okanagan Film Festival in 2006
Best Film - Sport & Tourism, Art&Tur - International Tourism Festival, Barcelos Portugal 2008
Board Shorts - Runner Up inTheBin Short Film Festival 2008
'balance' toured with the Banff Mountain Film Festival World Tour
'balance' has been screened in more than 200 cities worldwide with an audience of well over 100,000.
Track list from 'balance' courtesy of Battleaxe Records

The Big White Filmfest 2010 is a compilation of the best of my footage from Big White shot in the 09/10 season. It's not surprisingly rather promo-ish as I do a fair but of promo work for Big White.
The Follow Cam 101 was my submission to the Spring Fling Film Festival at Big White Ski Resort for 2008/09 season. Quite possibly my silliest video to date. This was my first time in front of the camera instead of behind the lens.
The Winemakers Cup is a ski race for the Okanagan's wine producers. Winery owners, winemakers, assistants and other industry employees were invited to Mt Baldy ski resort for this fun event. Paul Cotton Films was on hand to produce a hilite reel for screening after the awards dinner.
The Snow Schralper was produced in less than 48 hours and was made for the Big White Spring Fling Film Festival. This Hinterland Who's Who spoof is two minutes of Mitch Yrjölä magic. Prior to shooting this video I had met Mitch very briefly on two occasions. He clearly enjoyed the attention and was fun to hang out with. Until we started shooting I had no idea Mitch was such an animal.
The B-Squad took top spot in the 'professional' category of the Spring Fling Film Fest but if I remember correctly it was the only entry in that category. Of note in this film is the poorly 'blue-screened' 58' Chev that was shot using a blue tarp hung from a garage. Quite possibly the only high speed car chase on snow to ever be produced.
The Spring Fling at Big White is a super fun event. Not only is it the last weekend of skiing in the Okanagan every year but it is action packed and a great opportunity to see the rising talent the valley has to offer. Both on the slopes and in the indie film scene.
Gaperday is an annual event that takes place at ski resorts across the country (world?) on the last day of skiing each year. Paul Cotton Films has been fortunate to attend and document many of these extrordinary days at Whistler-Blackcomb. Gaper Day 2007, Gaper Day 2006, Gaper Day 2005, Gaper Day 2004
DTP was a joint effort between Paul Cotton Films and Jib Culture Productions. This was produced over the 2003/2004 ski season. Many of the athletes featured have now moved into skiing's limelight and can be seen in Matchstick Productions, Teton Gravity Research, Poor Boyz Productions, and Warren Miller flicks.
Versys was 2Track Productions second project. Paul Cotton Films acted as the west coast liason for the eastern based company. It was produced in 2002/2003. Note the teaser shown here is a collaborative effort.
Prior to the production of Versys was The Playground, considered 2Tracks best effort. Produced in 2001/2002 The Playground was nominated for 'Best Follow Cam' by Powder Magazine in Los Vegas for Paul Cotton's chase cam through Blackcomb park following skier Mike Nick.
Free Reign was the first project Paul Cotton Films edited on a non-linear system (computer editing). It features many of the talented athletes of the Okanagan that Paul grew up with. Free Reign profiles a wide range of sports including Skiing, Snowboarding, Mountain Biking, BMX, and Motocross. It is also packed with tom foolery which many find very appealing. It was sold through out the valley and was surprisingly successful.
Paul did some amazing work up at Sun Peaks for the Coors Light Quest for the Holy Rail event in March of 08. Not only was he able to shoot and edit a video in just hours for the after-party that night, but he also produced a great video that captured the entire event and is still used to promote the program today. I would highly recommend Paul for any event, especially within the action sports industry.

A Troubled ThoughtMarch 30, 2011
At Pat's suggestion, I redid that logo ever so slightly.
I think I may at some point soon put together something that Ryan suggested to me recently, and which had crossed my mind occasionally in the past as well though I'd never approached it with anything like seriousness in the past. I think that I just may make a webcomic (or more likely a multimedia narrative project incorporating both webcomic style graphic storytelling and text based updates as well as whatever else I get the urge to create for it). I think that I will call this project "Troubled," (you know, like that logo-ish bit of text up there) for some reasons that are fairly obvious, and others that are a little bit more obscure.

The verdict is in and Pearl Mackie absolutely kills it as Doctor Who's latest companion, Bill Potts. I love her already!
Its been a long 16 months since the Season 9 finale aired December 5, 2015. Yup, you read that right… 2015! Sure, we've had a couple of Christmas specials in-between, but those are much more standalone events than regular episodes. This is the first proper episode since we said goodbye to Clara Oswald and although Jenna Coleman is irreplaceable, Pearl Mackie brings a new energy and vitality to the long-running TV series. From the moment the episode opened, you could feel a shift in tone as the music was lighter and Capaldi smiled constantly. Man, I wish Steven Moffat had given us THIS Doctor from the start, rather than the grumpy grandpa we met back in 2014 in "Deep Breath." I realize "twelve" had to be fundamentally different from "eleven," but unfortunately I think Capaldi's always suffered by comparison as Matt Smith was such a fan favorite. Perhaps this reboot will allow Capaldi to go out on a high note.
Titling this first hour "The Pilot," is a clever play on words. A way of simultaneously reintroducing the Whoniverse to fans, while making it the perfect jumping off point for new viewers. The episode really did explain most of what you need to know about Doctor Who and his TARDIS. Naturally, the photos of River Song and the Doctor's granddaughter would go over newbies' heads. However, they're featured as tiny nods/Easter eggs for the more seasoned fans. Nardole returned as well, and though I can't say he's one of my faves, the focus was much more on Bill throughout the hour. Capaldi and Mackie's chemistry is off the charts. The two play off each other amazingly.
Wasn't it a bit sad seeing the TARDIS sitting in the corner gathering dust? It's been so long since the last season, I couldn't remember where the heck we left off. Did the Doctor get the teaching gig in the off season? I guess it doesn't really matter when he started, only that Bill caught his eye while attending his lectures. She instinctively knew there was something special about this man. I loved that he mentioned how she smiled when she doesn't understand something. That's a trait that will undoubtedly rub off on the Time Lord, as he's softened so much already. I think Bill is going to be tons of fun, in the same way Donna Noble was during David Tennant's incarnation. In retrospect, a companion like Bill would have created a nice balance for Capaldi. Again, it's a shame she is being introduced now when Twelve is on his way out.
The story was pretty simple for Who. Girl meets girl (with a star in her eye). The two flirt over an odd alien puddle and soon madness ensues. Wasn't it wonderful after Bill shared her story about Heather, and the Doctor took off running, how she compared him to a penguin with his arse on fire? Oh man, I know I'm just going to adore this new partnership. Plus, Bill loves sci-fi… Perfection!
Doctor Who is a fairy tale for the young (and young at heart), so it's cheesy or corny at times but never terribly scary. For a more violent hour and a much darker tone, tune in to the spin-off Class, which airs immediately following Doctor Who. Check out my series premiere review for that show here. However, "The Pilot" had plenty of creepy imagery to go around. The dripping wet girl mimicking Bill, and that screech… Eeeek! The VFX were pretty dazzling, but then again Doctor Who is the BBC's flagship sci-fi show. We've come to expect a certain "movie quality" to the visual effects on Who. Still, watching Bill take in the wonder of the TARDIS for the first time was magical… even to fans familiar with the iconic blue box. It was hilarious that she called the Doctor's "technical marvel" a posh kitchen and asked to use the toilet. Yeah, there's no question Bill is unique and brings a lightheartedness that's been missing since the Smith years. I loved that she took longer than most to say, "it's bigger on the inside." Ha!
The Doctor, Bill and Nardole visited Australia, then a planet one million years in the future and eventually came face to face with the Daleks (well one). However, they couldn't dodge the alien puddle. Ultimately, Bill remembered that Heather had promised not to go without her. She needed to be released from that promise. I was surprised that Bill took the dripping wet girl's hand. Did that moment forge some kind of connection the series will revisit this season? When the Doctor decided not to wipe Bill's mind, she flashed to those visions Heather shared. I have a feeling Moffat will circle back to the mysterious moment at some point. Will this new alien be the cause of the Doctor's regeneration? With the Doctor stating, "Maybe one day we'll find her" it seems likely she'll be back.
To wrap things up…
I could not be more pleased with this episode, Capaldi's softer side and the Doctor's new companion, Bill. Again, all the pieces fit perfectly in place giving me a sense this season will be special. It's sad that both Capaldi and Moffat will be leaving at the end of this run, but we're still 12 episodes away from that fateful regeneration. I plan to enjoy "Twelve's" swan song in a way I haven't appreciated Capaldi's run as the Time Lord in the past. Having Bill Potts at his side is going to make it all the more interesting and fun. Even if Doctor Who is heading toward a total reboot next season, this premiere was proof everyone involved has poured their heart and soul into this final season. I'm stoked!
What did you think of Bill? Did you catch that peek at Capaldi's regeneration in the "coming soon" promo? We know Missy is back, but how does John Simm's version of the Master return?
Doctor Who airs Saturdays at 9/8c followed by Class on BBC America.

I could not be more pleased with this episode, and the Doctor's new companion, Bill. The premiere gave me a real sense this season is going to be special.

One thing that really bugged me about the way this site runs is that, whenever you use the "back" button in your browser, the page re-loads. This isn't a standard thing - if you go to, say BBC.co.uk and click a link at the bottom of the homepage, then use the back button to go back to the homepage, you'll still be at the bottom of the page and you won't have to wait for it to reload. On UPSU.net, every time you visit a page it re-loads; this is great for making sure you see the latest version of a page, e.g. the homepage or the forums, but it's terrible for our bandwidth and your page load times.
Because one of the main things I'm aiming for with UPSU.net is to make it as fast as possible to navigate around, I've decided to try turning off the code which tells your browser to reload the page each time you visit it.
Another thing we've added is the "sign in" box in the navigation bar of every page; now, if you need to sign in to the site, you can find a username and password box at the top of the page. Fill them in and click "sign in" and you're automagically signed into the site. At the moment, you're also returned to the page you were just browsing, but I think it will be better to send people to their profile homepage since this is where you can look after your account; I've been trying things out the former way for the past few days, and I'll be deciding later whether to try it using the latter method for a while to see if it's a better way of moving people around the site.
As always, I can't test each page on every type of browser, so your feedback is always welcome - just add your comments below as normal - if this post is greeted with the eternal sound of tumbleweed rolling across the comments box, I'll assume that everything's gone to plan and no-one's suddenly found UPSU.net isn't working for them anymore... ;o)

Summer is pitta season. Learn all about pitta dosha and how to stay balanced in mind, body, and spirit in summer.
We're starting ritusandhi! What-the-huh-what? :) Ritusandhi (RIH-doo-SAHN-dee)! It means the "joining" of seasons.
Here's the skinny:
Pitta dosha governs: Summer
Vata dosha governs: Fall thru Early Winter
Kapha dosha governs: Late Winter thru Spring
Knowledge of what dosha rules which season is important because we can (and must) adjust our diet and lifestyles accordingly so we don't get sick, especially as the seasons change. Transitioning from one season to the other is when we tend to get sick.
Here's why: Our bodies have been used to the routine, food, and lifestyle of the last season and without some prep work, switching to a new season immediately is a shock to the system which affects our immunity. Ah hah! Kiss that summer cold goodbye and learn how to prevent it!
Below is a chart that shows how the energies mellow and increase during a year's time.
Notice that when the curve dips, the previous dosha is low while the next dosha is just ramping up? This is ritusandhi and when you want to start getting ready for the upcoming season.
• Definitely consider doing a kitchari cleanse for 3-5 days to rid old toxins and rebuild the body-mind with renewed cells and tissues. And yes, I do recommend doing this 3x a year! It's the cheapest and most effective way to give our body a well needed "oil change" at home.
• If you have a good Ayurvedic resource near you, consider doing panchakarma once a year. Panchakarma (or PK as we call it), is a precise, deep clean where we bring the imbalanced doshas back to the digestive tract and expel them out in various methods. Then we bring the body back to strength with restorative and rejuvenating therapies and diet. For reals though, you need to do this with someone reputable or it could do more harm than good.
• Incorporate foods that are appropriate for the upcoming season while weaning off foods from the last season. Nature is pretty good at setting us up for this…you can shop farmer's markets which are almost always harmonious with nature and seasons.
• Change your exercise routine to match the season, if necessary. Cooling exercises like biking, swimming outdoors, and surfing should be done in warmer months. Whereas in the winter, cross country skiing keeps us toasty warm/sweaty on the inside and keeps both feet on the ground. Yoga is good for all seasons :)
• Stick to the daily routine…it's nature's law! The only thing that shifts is sunrise and sunset. The rest is to be followed, always.
• Keep in mind your dosha! For example, regardless of the season, vatas should never drink ice water. Pittas will always want to be mindful of anything too spicy or fermented. And kaphas will want to be mindful of too many sweets.
• The Seasonal Blooms: Vata Fall/Winter Season, Pitta Summer Season, Kapha Season will give you more insights on how to stay balanced for each season. They are free downloads and they will help you!
[…] ♥ Ritusandhi : The "Joining" of Seasons – It's that time of year. Transitioning from one season to the other. Fantastic information from the sassy MonicaB on the transition of seasons and what to do for our speciifc dosha. […]
[…] It's important because we use our bodies every single day and without taking time to clean it and nourish it, it will start to break down in places. It's kind of like a car. If we don't give our cars oil changes, tune-ups, and repair small problems as they come up, the damages later would be very costly (and much worse). Same with our bodies. We breathe things, see things, smell things, our skin absorbs things, we eat things, we get emotionally affected by things…and over time all those "things" stick on us like fuzzballs on a sweater. You don't want fuzzballs. You need to de-fuzz. ;) As a daily habit, sleeping is good to restore the body and so is eating the right foods. But even with those two things in place, we still need to take time to cleanse at least once a year and/or as the seasons change. […]
[…] ♥ Ritusandhi – The joining of the Seasons – Another great post from HeyMonicaB! It's that time of year when we are going to be transitioning into Vata Season (North America) and here are some tips to keep in mind to keep yourself balanced and healthy. […]
Just wondering about the timing of the ritusandhi… you mention that it occurs around the solstice but wouldn't depend on where you live? I feel like in NY fall starts way before the winter solstice – around late-October, early-November – temps drop, air gets dry, and colder.

Vikrams Gemini and Suryas Vel are the major Tamil films, through which this talented actor was noted as a typical villain. For his villainous performance in the Mohanlal starrer Chotta Mumbai, he won two prestigious awards in the state, namely Ujala Asianet Award and Vanitha Chandrika Award for the Best villain in 2008.After playing a variety of roles this year, Kalabhavan Mani will soon don the role of a gunda in a new film to be directed by character actor Saleem Bawa, who played a notable role in Aadharam (1992). This Kalabhavan starrer will have Sajith Raj in an important role. Earlier, Saleem Bawa directed Rapid Action Force and Mohitam. Both were average earners in the box office.Kalabhavan Manis latest release is Sureshgopis Bullet, directed by Nizzar. In this film, he portrays the role of Circle Inspector Wahid Abdul Rahman Haji who investigates the disappearance of Yamunaprasad, a popular music director and judge of a reality show.

Eraser Shavings
An abortion of a thought
Of what could have been
Yet I wonder still
If feelings have feelings too
Falling to the floor
Eraser Shavings
An abortion of a thought
Of what could have been
Yet I wonder still
If feelings have feelings too
Falling to the floor
My first kiss was with a man of the wind
Swain swaying with my soul in a sweet sensation of serenity
My ears caressed by the warmth of his breath
The heart's emotions overriding the mind's rationality
And his lips of air sweep against mine
With the force of hurricanes spiraling in the sky
Above me clouds speckled the sky
Below me was the wind
And in between fluttered this love of mine
Yet it was a deceptive illusion, this serenity
Because I loved with my heart's emotions rather than my mind's rationality
And my ears could not perceive the words under his breath
Hitched in my throat rested my breath
Frantically searching for his eyes amidst the misty sky
The thunder striking my senses, scattering rationality
Where had he gone to, this man of the wind,
And could we not seek together for serenity?
This love, was it only mine?
Our hearts had intertwined, that how he stole mine
Fabricating fantasies in a single breath
His temper created tempest rather than serenity
And I, as fools often do in love, could not see beyond the serenity
Unable to see beyond the misty veil of delusions, I was swept into the sky
The hole where my heart could not deny the passage of bitter winds
"Yet are you not to shoulder partial blame?" inquires rationality
Because Love is not just blinded infatuation; it requires rationality
He lead me down a misguided path, but I walked there with these feet of mine
Intoxicated by the illusion of independence, I forget that he is the wind
He is the breeze beneath my wings; my movement is dictated by his breath
And, at his impulsive inclination I could be dropped from the sky
The sweet scent of slaughter becoming my serenity
Love is a balance of shambles and serenity
A puzzle in which you try and fit emotions into rationality
Highs that can send you skyrocketing into the sky
Contrasting lows damning this fragility of mine
And it last until death do you part when you release of your final breath
This is love; steel trying to conform to the whims of the wind
The tension building between us, it can never truly be mine
It can only be shared like two lungs share a breath
This is why he vanished, this man of the wind
Plip, plop; the sky must be crying
Lip trembling in an attempt to stay bright
Whip up those clouds to be radiant and airy
Slip and you ruin everyone else's delight
Rain pouring from the blacken firmament above
"Restrain your selfish sorrows," chants the sky
Pain never goes unnoticed by the mother below her
Terrain mutters to the heavens, "Sometimes it's okay to cry."
Youth is but the invisible hand of a desperate lover
Desperately attempting to grasp our hand in intertwine our fingers together
Bitterly smiling as the ghost of their hand wisps through yours
Distant eyes gazing into a world where this love could be true
Persisting against the ever flowing river of time, they reach for your hand
Affirming the wretched reality by vainly reaching out again and again
Corporeal Romeo and his ethereal Juliet
Torn seams ripping the fabric of reality
Which cloaked their bared back from the frigid bite of winter
Watching from a distance, prowling closer in the cover of shadows
The blade of crescent moons glinting ominously under the stars
Exchanging the misty hand of Time with his own skeletal one
Directing him elsewhere down the winding staircases that lead to his domain
Efficiently, despite the slight twinge of remorse echoing in his hollow chest
For perplexing Mortality had no heart, yet it had a mind
And Time's trembling knees fell to the ground, unable to move
Hello! I just wanted to mention something about this poem. Although this may seem like a free verse poem, it is in fact a structured poem. If you take the first letter in the first line, the second letter in the second line, the third letter in the third line, and so on, it will spell out a secret line. When counting, do not include anything other than the letters, i.e. spaces and apostrophes. Thank you so much for reading my writing. It really means everything to me, more than I can put into words, and I'm a writer. If you have any comments or critiques, please do not hesitate to leave them!
Eyes skimming across the surface of the text
Awaiting for that depth in which my soul can plunge into
A level of intricacy that can delightfully perplex
A sapling planted in words consciously grew
Until a world of entangled complexity emerged
Societies built upon the cornerstone of letters
Cultures worshiping their scriptures of ink
Thoughts both harmoniously and incongruously merged
A universe where words collide, for worse or for better
A universe that forces both the reader, and the writer, to think
Who is that man reflected in your tears,
And why is he walking away?
Pale knuckles clutching the suitcase trailing behind him
Packed tight with clothes
And no room left for anything to do with you
Wheels marking the path he has chosen
The one that leads away from you
Who is that man reflected in your tears,
And why is he with another woman?
Long, black hair and long, black lashes
With a long, black dress and a long, red tail
Horns peeking from the sides of her head
A demon seductress in human flesh
Stealing your heart which you had given to him
Destroying one for the price of two
Who is that man reflected in your tears,
And why does he not look back?
Had the intimate bond you shared vanished
In that puff of smoke from the mistress' cigarette?
When he flicked his lighter,
And the passionate flames of your love
Was used to light their lust
Was that scrapbook of memories
Casted into the inferno as well?
Who is that man reflected in your tears,
And why did you hand him your heart?
Who is that man reflected in your tears,
And why is he walking away?
Pounding harshly in my head
Sounding like the roaring of thunder
Surrounding my mind with dreadful agony
Wounding me as my clarity is broken asunder
Medication can't seen to cure the pain
Orientation in my mind seems to quake
Imagination is eradicated in my brain
Sensations of a horrid headache
