Neville George BarnettPrint Page
Marble cross erected by friends as a memorial to Neville George Barnett (1854-1895), musician who died at Picton Lakes.
Barnett arrived in Sydney in May 1887, ostensibly to take an attractive post, but had to wait until next year before his organ recital at the Centennial Musical Festival at the University of Sydney drew attention to his skill. He was immediately appointed organist of St Mary's Cathedral under John Delany, the director of music. At the cathedral a series of recitals which he gave soon after his appointment helped to raise the funds necessary for completion of the half-built organ. In addition to his instrumental work he acted as a music critic, writing for the Sydney newspapers.
Barnett occupies a position of importance in Australian musical life as the first organist of proven qualifications to reside permanently in New South Wales.
In response to an invitation from Messrs. Arthur Smyth and Thomas M. O'Neill, who were intimate friends of the late Mr. Neville George Barnett, organist of St. Mary's Cathedral, several well known ladies and gentlemen met at Paling's on Monday to discuss the question of a memorial which in terms oi the circular should "place on record their appreciation and recognition of his scholarly attainments as a musician.'' Mr. Hector M'Lean presided. It was resolved, on the motion of Mr. Morris Menser, that a subscription list should be opened and a concert given, with a view to raising funds either for the publication of Mr. Barnett's work, "The Art Theory of Harmony," or for any other memorial of the late musician which future circumstances may dictate. The following gentlemen were appointed as a committee to carry out this resolution : — Mr. Hector M'Lean, Mr. Morris Menser, Mr. Harry Leston, Mr. C. Huenerbeing, Mr. Manfield Newton, Mr. W. C. Upton, Mr. J. B. White, the Rev. Father Carroll (administrator of St. Mary's Cathedral), Mr. Arthur Smyth (hon. secretary), and Mr. T. M. O'Neill (hon. treasurer), with power to add to their number. It is also proposed to form a ladies' committee.

Hailing from Hardwick, Vermont, this outstanding show features a core line up of professional performers who have training in circus arts, musical composition, puppetry, dance, and more. Chock full of wit and ingenuity, Vermont Vaudeville keeps the audience on its toes with awe-inspiring feats of acrobatic dexterity, jazzy musical performances, and the subtle masterful art of comedic timing.
After the show, the performers shared a little about themselves during an audience Q&A. They explained their path in the performing arts, and how they fit in touring and shows with the day-to-day demands of "everyday life." Thank you Vermont Vaudeville, for keeping us thoroughly entertained, and for giving us a glimpse into the lives of professional performing artists. And a big thanks to GIA alum Brent McCoy '97, pictured below on the unicycle!

Has Social Media Cheapened Creative Talent?
One of the basic concepts in social media and online networking and marketing is about giving, yet there seems to be a lot more taking going on lately. Although I agree that the participation in the social web absolutely needs to have that element of helpfulness, it doesn't mean that professional creative services should be expected to be given away for free or for a few bucks. Here are a few recent scenarios that have come to my attention:
In various LinkedIn discussion groups:
Someone asking for "suggestions" for a new tag line for their company.
Someone asking for "suggestions" for re-branding of a web domain.
Someone asking for the best solutions to market their brand.
Craig's List:
Someone asking for product designs on spec: Create it, design it, give it to us and if we like it, we'll pay you.
A prominent children's brand looking for a product designer to work unpaid for 3 months which "may lead to a paid position."
Numerous online news or information sites:
Writers provide free content or content for a few bucks an article in exchange for "exposure."
Online printers:
Offering a free clip art logo with every printing job.
These are just a few of the myriad of examples of businesses looking for and/or taking free or nearly free, design, marketing or content to build their own businesses. There's nothing wrong with helping people, offering advice and yes, sometimes offering limited services for free or at a discount, but there seems to be a disconnect somewhere that discounts talent and quality which, in turn, devalues and cheapens creative work.
A good example here is the case of the online printing service offering a free clip art logo with every printing job. This company is not a graphic design house, they are a printing house. A more appropriate offer might be to giveaway an extra few pieces of whatever is being printed. Giveaway the printing, not low level clip art logos. Yes it's a logo, and yes, the customer might need a logo, but it's not doing the customer any favors by offering them a logo that looks like it was designed by a 5th grader. There actually is no value in doing that, because even if their customer doesn't realize the low quality, the marketplace probably will, and a poor unprofessional image will be projected.
It seems that it's becoming a common practice to not only ask for, but expect creative work for free or virtually free. There is that old saying that "you get what you pay for." This isn't to say necessarily that the more expensive something is the better, but it's safe to say that most professional quality work is not going to be found for free. The problem here lies in when businesses don't see or know the difference between professional quality work and low level work that appears to fill a particular need at a particular time for a bargain or lower than bargain price. Is it really still true that content and quality is king or is a bargain the new reigning ruler? Is this a larger cultural question? Let me know what you think…

text: So I've had this bug and totally obsessed about growing things and getting my garden planned and everything prepared and to grow some starts in my house. I found a software with a 30 day free trial that I'm using to plan my garden and I'm not going to do the traditional row style, but a completely different style, and it should be so cute and awesome! Anyways, here is a picture from the software of what I have planned so far. I'm sure you can't tell what everything is, but just think vegetable garden and you might be able to figure it out. Some of the things in there are: beans, peas, tomatoes, peppers, carrots, cillantro, beets, squash, watermellon, cantelope, pumpkins, rhubarb, raspberry bushes, strawberries. The round white circles are supposed to represent stepping stones, if I can manage to get the made (I'm experimenting with that this weekend hopefully). Enjoy!

This is a blog slightly out of the ordinary here at Labor is Not a Commodity. We just can't ignore when one of our own gets caught in the same system that has had so many negative impacts on working people around the world. The issues surrounding migration and the right to due process are at the center of this blog and these are issues that ILRF has highlighted on our website and past blog entries. This is also a blog about solidarity, and for this ILRF is in awe at the power we all carry when we work collectively to end injustice.
Andrea Huerfano, who was an intern at ILRF in the spring of 2008, moved to the United States from Colombia with her family in 2001, just prior to her freshman year of high school. Andrea cared deeply about working class folks and issues surrounding immigration. You can read one of her blogs here about the roots of immigration.
The Huerfanos fled their home country in response to political threats and they arrived in the United States with valid visas and immediately applied for political asylum. The United States asylum application process is long and complicated, with refugees essentially stuck in limbo for the duration of the adjudication process; they cannot go back to the home they know and are unwelcomed guests in the United States unsure of whether they will be sent back or allowed to stay. 58 percent of those who apply for political asylum are denied their claim. While Andrea and her family waited to hear if their application for political asylum had been approved, years went by. Andrea graduated from high school and began attending the Florida State University, and during her second year at Florida State her father passed away due to lung cancer; still a decision had still not been made concerning their status. After her father's death Andrea's mother married an American citizen, allowing her and her two younger sons to stay in the United States but leaving Andrea's status still to be determined because she was over 18 years old. Andrea and her mother and brothers attempted to gain political asylum based on her father's experiences in Colombia but when they submitted their plea for asylum to Judge Teofilo Chapa it was denied.
Despite her own personal drama Andrea continued to be active in her community. She was involved in a number of organizations including the Florida Immigrant Coalition and the DREAM Team coalition when she was a student at Florida State and after graduating in 2007 with a degree in International Relations she interned with the International Labor Rights Forum (ILRF) and the International Rescue Committee (IRC). During her stay with the IRC she assisted case workers as they helped those who, unlike Andrea and her family, had been granted asylum. In the summer of 2008, she was awarded a coveted fellowship with PolitiCorps, a prestigious political training program in Portland, Oregon. As part of her fellowship she spent up to 80 hours a week registering young American's to vote during the 2008 election cycle, despite the fact that she herself did not enjoy that right. PolitiCorps director Caitlin Baggot described Andrea as the most "hardworking and promising" fellow of the year.
On December 8, 2009 Andrea had gone to court to pay a traffic ticket when she was detained to Broward Transitional Center in Pompano Beach, Florida, and faced imminent deportation. Following her detention, the many activist communities she is and was involved in began to mobilize on her behalf. More than 700 people signed an online petition last week asking Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano to let Andrea stay in the United States. Through the efforts of a coalition led by Bus Project, PolitiCorps and Students Working for Equal Rights, Immigrations and Customs Enforcement announced that she will be released on a "stay of removal" and given six months to prepare her case.
Despite all of Andrea's efforts to make the United States a more just and equal country and to get those lucky enough to be granted the coveted status of citizen more involved, the United States is not doing her any favors. Only with the help of other organizers and activists is she still here today. Andrea's case highlights the immeasurable problems that exist in our immigration system today, despite highly publicized "immigration reform." Innocent people who are looking for nothing more than safety and security for their family are often left in the same situation as Andrea and her family found themselves when they first arrived here, or worse. Some are detained upon arrival without any explanation, and are often stuck in that situation for years.
However, this is not an issue that concerns only the United States. Often we forget to ask about the conditions that may have driven someone to leave their home. Many leave due to forces beyond their control such as unemployment, underemployment, or lack of effective labor laws in their home country that can protect their health and safety on the job. In other cases, like with Andrea's family, people must flee from political persecution. Increasingly, political persecution or wrongful arrest based on labor activism are becoming migratory "push factors." Trade unionists and leaders are being effectively black listed by their countries' governments due to their union activity. Faced with wrongful arrest, as in the case of Remigio Saladero; violence against them or their family as in the case of Colombian Coca-Cola and Dole workers; or the inability to find work due to black listing; workers and their families often have no choice but to leave. When considering the "immigration problem" in the United States we must first consider the problems that brought them here. The migration of people, workers, or families weave tangled webs of connection across the globe. As we become more aware of our place this web, we can better help to untangle it. Labor rights and immigrant rights are irrevocably linked and we cannot solve immigration problems unless we first work to solve issues that cause people to migrate in the first place.
For more information on Andrea's case, and to get more involved in her struggle, contact Mollie Ruskin or Caitlin Baggot.

Part 1 is right. Both answers are the same.
Part 2 is trickier. One way is to do it in two parts. First find the probability of the KH and any other card with a pack of 52 cards.
Then remove the KH and start with a pack of 51 cards, 3 kings and 12 hearts and apply the same reasoning as for part 1.

Michael Kors Jet Set Watch
Very nice watch - I purchased it because I wanted one with crystals, along with a bigger face. I was happy when I saw that the case measurement listed was 48 mm wide, because I have another MIchael Kors watch - which I also purchased from Overstock - that was listed as having a 40 mm wide case. So I thought this one would be bigger than the one I have, but they are exactly the same size. So, I'm not sure which ones measurements was listed wrong, but one of them are off, because they shouldn't be the same size (40 compared to 48 is a big difference). Other than that, I am very pleased with it (and the price) and will keep it. Just wish it would have been a little bigger.
- How did the image on site compare with the actual product? Exact
- How accurate was the sizing? I think it was incorrect
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Good

"Speculate before you accumulate. I am a long term regular writer and advertiser in 'Your Expert Witness - the Solicitor's Choice'. This investment pays me substantive dividends; I get more Expert Witness work with every issue. Not only solicitors and barristers but also judges seem to read it. It is a win-win situation. Success breeds success; I must continue to write and advertise."
Dr Bashir Qureshi. Expert Witness in Cultural, Religious & Ethnic issues in Litigation and also in GP Clinical Negligence, London.
The press – and indeed the public – have been occupied recently with a sudden and huge increase in the number of so-called acid attacks, where a corrosive substance is thrown or squirted onto the victim, in particular the face. From being isolated cases, often where the victim is known to the perpetrator – who deliberately aims to disfigure – they now appear to be the weapon of choice of mugging gangs who are more and more likely to be caught if they carry other weapons.
A quick response is essential on the part of bystanders, as is the correct response. The British Association of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons has launched a campaign to educate the public, around the slogan Report, Remove, Rinse.
In addition to the burns and disfigurement, such attacks can leave lasting scars. Living with those scars can have profound and debilitating psychological consequences in addition to the physical legacy. Indeed, scarring from any source, whether inflicted deliberately or the consequence of negligence or carelessness, can carry long-term psychological consequences.
More than 200 health and legal professionals gathered in Nottingham to celebrate the extraordinary achievements of people who have overcome significant injury and to learn about cutting edge research and developments in the rehabilitation sector.
The 'Back in the Game' conference, hosted by the UK's largest provider of expert witness, assessment and case management services Bush & Company, was held at the Nottingham Belfry Hotel on 6 July, showcasing speakers from the world of sport, prosthetics and law.
Helen Jackson, Managing Director at Bush & Company, explained: "This was a unique opportunity to improve services through knowledge sharing and networking, with so many health and legal professionals all under one roof.
"Though each speaker considered a different element of rehabilitation, the day was built around a theme of understanding and empathy, reminding us that there is a person at the heart of the legal process during claims and settlements, whose relationships and self-esteem will be significantly impacted by a serious injury.
The Law Society has responded to the new discount rate policy, announced by the Ministry of Justice on 7 September.
The MoJ claims the reforms will make sure personal injury victims get the right compensation and could also see significant savings for the NHS – as well as for motorists through lower car insurance premiums.
Changes mean the rate would be set by reference to 'low risk' rather than 'very low risk' investments as at present, better reflecting evidence of the actual investment habits of claimants, the MoJ says.
The rate will also be reviewed at least every three years – and the expertise available to the Lord Chancellor in carrying out the reviews will be extended by the creation of a role for an independent expert panel in the process.
Experts from the Institute of Environmental Management and Assessment (IEMA) have expressed concern about the future implementation of European environmental standards following the UK's secession from the EU, particularly given the uncertainty thrown up by the election result.
IEMA's chief policy advisor, Martin Baxter (pictured), said: "The outcome of the general election raises significant challenges, from forming a government to developing and implementing a legislative programme: all against a backdrop of the UK's Article 50 notification to leave the EU."
"IEMA members expressed significant concern in the run up to the election on a wide range of sustainability issues including air quality, climate change and circular economy. It is vital that the short-term uncertainties are quickly resolved so that long-term challenges can be properly addressed."
Two prosecutions in as many days have seen jail terms imposed for the selling of unlicensed medicines.
On 8 September a man from Southall was jailed at Isleworth Crown Court on eight counts of possession and supply of significant quantities of unauthorised and unlicensed medication.
Investigators from the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) raided a property belonging to Gurinder Bharaj in Ealing, where more than 100,000 individual doses of unlicensed erectile dysfunction medicines worth more than £30,000 were uncovered and seized. A smaller quantity of prescription medication was also seized.
Following an initial hearing Mr Bharaj pleaded guilty to all charges and was sentenced to 20 months imprisonment with immediate effect (concurrent to all counts). He was also ordered to pay a £75 victim surcharge.
Confirmation that Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt is to launch an initiative to reduce prescribing and medication errors in the NHS was met with a mixed response from bodies representing the pharmacy sector.
The move was confirmed by Pharmacy Minister Steve Brine MP in his speech to the Royal Pharmaceutical Society's annual conference in September. Mr Brine said that studies currently indicate that up to 8% of prescriptions have a mistake in dosage level, course length or medication type.
He said: "Patient education and safe management of information will be at the heart of our efforts to tackle this serious issue. For example, we will need to improve how we use electronic prescribing, as well as how we transfer information about medicines between care settings, where there is significant scope for errors."
In the last issue of Your Expert Witness we reported on the setting up of websites by police to allow witnesses to upload pictures and videos of the terrorist attacks in Manchester and London. The actions demonstrate the embracing by police of people's digital lives and the increasing importance of technology in evidence gathering.
The moves follow a statement last year by then-Home Secretary Theresa May on the subject. She said: "Citizens increasingly capture what is happening around them on video, generating potential evidence of crimes. Policing has not yet caught up.
In recent weeks there has been a deal of press and public indignation over ground rents that can double or more overnight. It is an issue that may be harbouring an avalanche of negligence claims against solicitors, according to Joshua Munro, a barrister at Hailsham Chambers.
He writes: "Purchasers of long-leasehold interests in property may regard themselves as the 'owners' of the property. However, many thousands have discovered that they are subject to covenants in favour of freeholders.
"When the true position is found out as to increasing ground rent liabilities, it is very likely that the long-leasehold owners will want to make claims. The problems are often remediable, via leasehold enfranchaisement and acquisition of a share of freehold, or an extension of the long lease's term with reduction of ground rent to a peppercorn.
With consultation on CCTV in slaughterhouses closing on 22 September, the Scottish Government has announced plans to introduce a similar consultation as part of its Government Programme for Scotland 2017/18.
The decision has been widely welcomed by the veterinary profession and follows campaigning to include the measure in Scotland alongside the model for England announced by Michael Gove in August.
Melissa Donald, president of the Scottish branch of the British Veterinary Association (BVA), said: "We're delighted that the Scottish Government is looking seriously at introducing mandatory CCTV in abattoirs.
Although a high percentage of abattoirs in Scotland already have CCTV, there are no rules governing how the footage is used or kept, and it is essential that Official Veterinarians have unrestricted access so they can fully monitor animal health and welfare throughout the slaughterhouse.
In May last year the Psychoactive Substances Act came into force. One year on there have been a number of articles published reflecting on the Act and its effectiveness, particularly with reference to the availability of new psychoactive substances, or so-called 'legal highs' as they were termed prior to the Act.
In April Home Office Minister Sarah Newton (pictured) reacted to criticism from some quarters of the legislation.
"We have known about the devastating consequences of Spice for some time," she wrote, "and we have acted to give police the powers they need to take action, making third generation synthetic cannabinoids Class B drugs on a par with ketamine and amphetamines. We will continue to monitor its impact and if we need to do more, we will."
In recent issues of Your Expert Witness we have highlighted the on-going issue of unqualified people carrying out illegal tooth whitening – and the efforts being made by the General Dental Council (GDC) to bring offenders to book. Since the last issue highlighted a case in Wales there have been prosecutions in Orpington, Salford and London.
At the end of last year the legal position on tooth whitening of the GDC received the backing of the organisation that brings together all European dental regulators. FEDCAR – the Federation of European Dental Competent Authorities and Regulators – published a statement endorsing its approach as the one to be used across Europe.

text: Greetings all, and happy new years if you celebrate it. I have a Supercard DS One (not DS Onei) And I was given a DSi XL firmware 1.4 or something like that. I was suggested to get an Acekard 2i or an R4i Gold if money is an issue, But seeing as how the Acekard is less than 5 dollars more than the R4i Gold, I may get that instead to play my games. Now here's the thing, I just want the basic functionality that was given to me by my Supercard DS One. Play games, Use cheats (Unfortunately I'm not THAT good at some game types, heh), and Save States. I don't need music playback because I have that on my cellphone. Video playback... On such a small screen, is not attractive to me. I'm "blind" enough as I am. And I'm gonna use the same Micro SD that I used with the Supercard DS One. I plan on once I have a job and being stable, trading in the DSi XL and get a 3DS. So with this info in mind, which card of the two above should I get? Or perhaps throw other cards into the equation for consideration. What does the Supercard DS Two have that makes it more expensive than the others? Pros and Cons? I will now go read reviews for the cards to help myself out as well, thank you in advanced for your time. EDIT: I am currently reading up the Which Flashcart should I get sticky, and it seems that the features I am looking for in the iSMart MM and Supercard DS Two... Hmmm.... At least so does the chart say. I dont need slow motion nor to create cheats on the fly... What special homebrew does the Supercard DS Two have that can make it worthwhile?

Omega-3's: Why do we need them?
Omega-3, also known as linolenic acid, is an essential fatty acid that we must get through our diet. It's a type of polyunsaturated fat that our body cannot produce so we have to get it from food we eat. Omega-6, linoleic acid, is also an essential fatty acid, but most people get a lot of this type of fatty acid through the "standard diet". The goal for overall health is to obtain a balance of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids.
There are three forms of omega-3 fatty acids: ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), and DHA (docosahexanoic acid). ALA is found in plants and can be converted to EPA and DHA in the body. DHA and EPA are naturally found egg yolks, some plant and nut oils, and in cold water fish and shellfish.
Some overall health benefits of omega-3's are:
- reduces inflammation
- reduces blood clotting
- dilates blood vessels
- important for eye and brain development (especially important for a growing fetus in the late stages of pregnancy)
- acts to reduce cholesterol and triglyceride levels
- may help preserve brain function
- helps decrease risk factors for disease
- may help reduce the risk of mental illness and ADHD, although more research is needed to confirm mental health benefits
Getting the proper amount of omega-3's in the diet can help athletic performance and recovery. Reducing inflammation and helping with blood flow are important benefits for athletes and active people.
Omega-6 fatty acids tend to be pro-inflammatory. These are mostly found in vegetable oils (safflower, sunflower, corn, and soybean oil). We do need omega-6 fatty acids in our diet, but we need to maintain the right balance. Most Americans get too much omega-6 and not enough omega-3. Balancing these two fatty acids is necessary for supporting normal circulation and other biological processes.
While there is not a dietary reference intake (DRI) for the ideal amount of EPA and DHA, the Institute of Medicine has established an adequate intake for ALA (the precursor to EPA + DHA). The Institute of Medicine recommends 1.1 grams per day of ALA to be the minimum amount for normal growth and neural development. It has been recommended that we get 1.25 grams of EPA+DHA per day, which is found in about 2-3 serving of fatty fish per week.
Can we get all the needed omega-3 fatty acids from only eating plant based sources? ALA (found in plants), being the precursor, needs to be converted to EPA and DHA in the body. According to this study, "the conversion appears to be unreliable and restricted" and "the conversion from ALA to DHA is severely restricted".
Being plant based, I was always curious if I was getting the proper amount of omega-3's in my diet. Earlier in the year, my doctor advised that I take a fish oil supplement. I was hesitant, but started taking it daily in hopes of decreasing my CRP level . C-reactive protein (CRP) levels rise in response to inflammation. After three months (along with some other changes) I was able to get my CRP down to a healthy level.
It's always best to get your nutrients from food, but sometimes supplementation is needed. When taking a fish oil supplement, quality is very important. Some other tips on taking fish oil are: keep it refrigerated as it could oxidize if left out in the heat; take it with food to avoid "fish burps" or you can freeze it; most benefits happen over weeks not immediately; fish oil can increase brain activity, so a stimulatory effect may be felt after supplementation; fish oil may reduce blood clotting, so take caution if you are on a blood-thinning medication. (Examine.com)
Also available is an algae supplement, which is a vegetarian alternative.
Some food sources of omega-3's are:
- salmon
- anchovies
- sardines
- walnuts
- chia seeds
- flax seeds
Getting omega-3's in your diet, as well as lowering omega-6, has many important health benefits. As you can see, there are several ways to get those essential fatty acids. Whether from fatty fish or flax seeds or if you choose to take a supplement. It's essential to do research or talk to your doctor or dietician to find the best option for your overall health.
How do you get your omega-3's?
Have you ever taken a fish oil or algae supplement?

Thai massage is a combination of influences from Indian, Chinese, Southeast Asian cultural spheres and traditions of medicine. Our Thai massage is performed with the you laying on a futon and dressed in loose, comfortable clothing. Unlike Swedish massage, oils or lotions are not required. Our therapist uses pressure on you to press stressed muscles and encourage flow of blood and lymph, as well as realign the axial lines of muscle bundles. Pressure and stroking motions move blood, aiding normal circulation, and realign knotted muscles for improved movement.
In Thailand, Thai massage is one of the branches of Thai traditional medicine, now recognized and regulated by the government, and is widely considered to be a medical discipline used for the treatment of a wide variety of ailments
Oil massage has been used as one of the oldest forms of stress reduction treatments in history and dates back 3,000 years according to historians. Chinese, Persians, Hindus, and Egyptians were among the earliest users of massage, which they used to treat a variety of ailments. Oil massage encourages proper transmission signals within the central nervous system, relaxing tight muscles and moving toxic molecules through the blood stream and lymph system. In doing this, harmony and structure are enforced in the neuroanatomical, promoting good balance and coordination in the muscles. This balancing act is known as 'proprioception', the ability for the body to orient itself in space with movement.
Our Massage therapists prepare massage oil mixtures with vitamins and nutrients to benefit the skin and body. During a massage session, massage oil directly contacts your skin and can be absorbed into your body. The ultimate relaxation massage combines soft and hard techniques. To begin with, smoothing hand movements are used to gently work on muscles and soft tissue, in order to relieve stress and tension and warm the muscles.
Swedish massage combines various hands-on techniques including gliding, kneading, and cross-fiber friction to break up muscle knots, called adhesions. Swedish massage is based on the Western concepts of anatomy and physiology as opposed to energy work. It can be slow and gentle, or vigorous and bracing, depending on what the therapist wants to achieve. During the massage, our therapist lubricates the skin with massage oil and usually takes 50 to 60 minutes to massage the whole body.
Through its pain-relieving and muscle-relaxing effects, it establishes the conditions for bodily movements of various intensity and directions. By enhancing blood circulation, it elevates the flexibility of your skin and the blood supply of your muscles to an optimal level. It has a favorable effect on the respiratory center in the brain and the vegetative nervous system.
Combination massage is taking advantage its expertise in Traditional Thai massage and oil massage. It will leave one feeling re-energized, relaxed and rejuvenated. The Combination massage respects all the teachings of Thai massage and acknowledges the existence of the "energy body" with the benefits of increased circulation and the release of toxins from the body's soft tissues and muscles.
The Combination massage makes you feel more balanced physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.Throughout the massage, the Practitioner will utilize their arms, elbows, hands, palms thumbs, fingertips, legs, knees, feet and toe to apply to the body a series of movements including: compressions, pressure points, body stretches, light or hard touch, soft or deep kneading, rhythmic tapping, friction, and vibrations. Our therapist mixes these movements over the massage time allotted and will apply oils to assist in the effectiveness of these motions.
The benefits of Foot Reflexology are many, and recipients say they are more than worth their weight in gold. Foot Reflexology has been practiced for centuries, and it is still popular. With more than 7,000 nerves in the feet waiting to be stimulated, you may find that foot massage is very powerful and extremely pleasurable.
Our treatment can alleviate anxiety and bring about a deep state of relaxation. One important point that is situated on both feet is the solar plexus reflex. The solar plexus is sort of a little warehouse where all your stress is stored. When the solar plexus point is pressed on, stress is released and the body is renewed. Foot Reflexology can be beneficial as it decreases stress and allows the circulation of blood to flow unimpeded. According to theories of reflexology, Foot Reflexology releases any blockages that can hold back energy that should be flowing through the body freely.
Deep tissue massage is designed to relieve severe tension in the muscle and the connective tissue or fascia. This type of massage focuses on the muscles located below the surface of the top muscles. Deep tissue massage is often recommended for individuals who experience consistent pain, are involved in heavy physical activity (such as athletes), and patients who have sustained physical injury. It is not uncommon for receivers of deep tissue massage to have their pain replaced with a new muscle ache for a day or two.
The term "deep tissue" is often misused to identify a massage that is performed with sustained deep pressure. Deep tissue massage is a separate category of massage therapy, used to treat particular muscular-skeletal disorders and complaints and employs a dedicated set of techniques and strokes to achieve a measure of relief. Deep tissue massage is applied to both the superficial and deep layers of muscles, fascia, and other structures. The sessions are often quite intense as a result of the deliberate, focused work. When a client asks for a massage and uses the term "deep tissue", more often than not he or she is seeking to receive a full-body session with sustained deep pressure throughout. If a practitioner employs deep tissue techniques on the entire body in one session, it would be next to impossible to perform; it might lead to injury or localized muscle and nerve trauma, thereby rendering the session counterproductive.

the study by Makhro and colleagues, published in this issue (11), shows presence of N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors in different cell types and tissues from the rat: UT-7/Epo cells, bone marrow cells, and cerebellar tissue. Interestingly, peripheral blood also expressed NMDA receptors, which are more abundant in erythroid precursor cells and reticulocytes. These findings were validated by applying different methodologies, such as determination of the number of receptors by radiolabeling, Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, ion transport with radiotracers, and several others, to demonstrate not only presence but also functionality of these receptors.
The study also addresses an important topic concerning the effect of homocysteine (HC) in cardiovascular disease (CVD). Numerous studies have been conducted in the past and are presently ongoing in this field due to the demonstrated harmful effects this amino acid has on several organ systems and, particularly, in the vascular system. Despite the attention paid to the subject by both the scientific community and funding agencies in this country and abroad, no clear evidence of a causal role of HC levels on certain clinical outcomes, especially regarding the general population, could be derived and the consensus is that more studies are needed to demonstrate this point. Epidemiological studies in the late 1990s reported that elevated plasma HC levels are a strong predictor of mortality in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) (6, 13, 15) and are associated with higher risks of coronary, cerebral, and peripheral vascular disease (5, 14, 18). As a result of these investigations, treatment with folic acid, vitamin B12, and B6 was implemented, at different doses and combinations, to lower blood HC. Subsequently, large-scale randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials were initiated to assess whether there was a causal relationship between elevated HC and CVD and stroke (1, 3, 5, 8, 9, 16, 19). However, fortification of flour for bread and cereal grain products with folic acid, since January 1998 (9), has rendered the HC hypothesis untestable due to the significant effect that folate fortification had on the statistical power of ongoing clinical trials (3, 4). Nonetheless, despite the negative results for the general population and for patients with ischemic stroke (10, 16), some high-risk patient groups (6, 7), such as healthy postmenopausal women (14), renal transplant recipients (3), patients with the relatively common genetic methyltetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) mutation (18), patients with previous transient ischemic attack or stroke (8, 9), premature atherosclerosis disease (17), type 2 diabetes mellitus (15), peripheral vascular disease (see references in Ref. 7), and others do not seem to be protected by the average HC lowering therapy (1, 2, 5, 6, 8–10, 12, 17), and their HC plasma levels should be regularly monitored.
In addition to the effect of flour fortification with folate on clinical outcomes, other factors can affect the levels of HC in blood, such as genetic, physiological, and lifestyle factors, disease states, and drugs (8). Furthermore, results from clinical trials may be affected by the techniques and conditions of sample collection to measure plasma HC, the different methodologies used, and the interpretation of the evidence found in different types of studies such as observational, genetic, dietary, and large randomized controlled trials (8). Accordingly, lowering of HC by implementation of folic acid-based multivitamin therapy produced inconclusive results in the prevention of clinical vascular events and thus routine HC testing and treatment with this therapy could not be recommended until new information was available (8). However, as indicated above, evidence of an association between elevated plasma HC level and cardiovascular risk exists, especially that obtained in large-scale epidemiological studies, and a search for new approaches to resolve this conflict is needed. Thus several groups of investigators have concentrated in elucidating the mechanisms involving plasma HC levels, HC lowering therapy, vascular function, and atherogenesis [(2) and references therein].
Several effects of elevated plasma total HC have been observed in vivo and in vitro, with the two majorly reported being on atherogenesis and thrombogenesis (2, 8). Both in human and in animal models, HC has been shown to increase oxidative stress by promoting the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as superoxide anion (O2·−), and of reactive nitrogen species (RNS), such as peroxynitrite (ONOO−). These actions of HC generate a pro-oxidative state that leads to activation of inflammatory mediators involved in signaling pathways and promote expression of several pro-inflammatory genes (2). While ROS and RNS are mostly involved in vasoconstriction and inflammation, nitric oxide (NO), at low concentrations (in the nM range), plays a major role in vasodilation. In turn, HC, by promoting uncoupling of endothelial NO synthase leads to a decrease in the production of NO and to an increase in O2·− (2). These and additional effects derived from the HC biosynthetic pathway offer plausible explanations at the mechanistic level to understand the role of HC on endothelial and vascular function and thrombogenesis (2).
In line with the above mechanisms and findings, Makhro and colleagues (11) are reporting that homocysteic acid (HCA), which like HC binds to the NMDA receptor, stimulates ouabain-resistant and clotrimazole-sensitive K influx with an IC50 of 21.1 ± 0.78 μM. Data from this and other studies referenced in the study, indicate that the IC50 for glutamate binding to the brain and erythrocyte NMDA receptor is similar (about 90 μM in rat), and that the IC50 of the brain receptor for HC and HCA is about 14 μM. The concentrations of HC in normal healthy subjects is <15 μM, depending on the diet and other factors, and can increase to >100 μM in subjects with severe homocysteinemia (2). This suggests that NMDA receptors in peripheral blood will be preferentially regulated by HC and HCA, making this finding of high relevance in the search for mechanisms attempting to explain HC harmful effects in CVD. Activation of the NMDA receptor by its agonists induces entry of Ca into the cell (Fig. 3 in Ref. 11). An increase in intracellular Ca causes activation of the ouabain-resistant and clotrimazol-sensitive pathway (Fig. 4A in Ref. 11). Because under physiological conditions the electrochemical gradient for K is outwardly directed, activation of this pathway leads to cell shrinkage (see Fig. 6A in Ref. 11) and increases the potential for clot formation. Thus the study by Makhro and colleagues (11) appears to provide new mechanisms to explain the atherogenic and thrombogenic actions of plasma HCA and HC. The present study could also lead to the discovery of new and more reliable markers that could help further evaluation of the role HC plays in CVD and associated pathologies, as well as in testing the HC hypothesis. Although the experimental model used by Makhro and colleagues (11) is the rat, the findings have the potential for application to human, and extensive reference is provided by the authors for both the model and human pathology to strengthen the relevance of their study. Furthermore, the authors indicate that studies in human tissues are in progress, and this may shed further light on the mechanisms involving HC in CVD.

A work of dangerous and haunting beauty by America's last real literary outlaw.
Under Tiberius is a thrilling story of crime and deceit involving the man who came to be called Jesus Christ. Deep in the recesses of the Vatican, Nick Tosches unearths a first-century memoir by Gaius Fulvius Falconius, foremost speechwriter for Emperor Tiberius. The codex is profound, proof of the existence of a Messiah who was anything but the one we've known - a shabby and licentious thief.
After encountering him in the streets of Judea, Gaius becomes spin doctor for Jesus, and the pair schemes to accrue untold riches by convincing the masses that Jesus is the Son of God. As their marriage of truth and lies is consummated, friendship and wary respect develop between these two grifters.
Outrageous and disturbing, Under Tiberius is as black as the ravishing night, shot through with fierce and brilliant light.
©2015 Nick Tosches (P)2015 Hachette Audio
"Roaches delivers!"
I would imagine that this book will resonate better with Atheists than Theists. Very funny in places!
"Loved it and hated it"
The story itself was fabulous - a fascinating potential backstory. But the sound quality was abominable in that it was highly variable so you had to turn the volume way up to listen to the quiet parts and then all of a sudden it would be much louder and blast your ears out until you can get the sound turned down quickly. So it was really frustrating to listen to even though I enjoyed the story greatly overall. If you listen to the story in a completely quiet environment this will be a problem. But listening to it in the car or in the hot tub or at the gym where there is other noise going on around you means that the sound is really hard to regulate. And this is regardless of whether you were listening to it over speakers or through earbuds.
"Not worth the effort"
Maybe it's the effect of knowing pretty much how the story is going to end, but I found this book to be painfully boring. I gave up about 2/3 of the way through.
"Good idea that doesn't come off"
I was looking forward to a wry, tongue-in-cheek take on the gospel story, that was just as likely to have happened as the ones we have handed down in the Bible. I had heard Nick interviewed on NPR and liked the extract he read. But instead, I found this novel very labored, crude and too serious, so I am going to return it. I like what I think the author is trying to do but I don't think he succeeds. And it could be the fault of the super-intense, takes-himself-far-too-seriously reader, that didn't bring out a spark of humor in the chapters I listened to.
I much preferred Lamb by Christopher Moore - that was a really good listen.
Shortened it, made it somewhat more humorous.
Laborious, serious, monochrome.
I would have cut down some of the crudity and "toilet" scenes - not removed them altogether, but once the point was made, move on.
"Interesting primus inadequately explored"
His exploration of the theme that Jesus was an impostor, helped by a noble birth Roman is interesting. NT borrowed too much "thought process" from modern times. Would have been more interesting if he had tried harder to capture the thinking processes of the 1st century human.
I was very intrigued by the idea of this book, but the execution was inadequate. I was disappointed.

Several years ago, on a Friday afternoon around 4:55 p.m., a man parked his car in the parking lot next to my law office.
He got out of his car and took about twenty steps to the intersection of Gore Avenue and the train tracks.
The man headed east on the train tracks.
About 300 feet or so down the tracks, just past the school my children attended in the old train station, an Amtrak train sped around the bend.
You can imagine the rest.
The man wasn't lost. Or, maybe he was.
Turns out it was a suicide.
If I recall correctly, the man had a wife. And children.
I think about the man on Friday afternoons when I hear the Amtrak train come barrelling down the tracks.
What was he thinking?
Why couldn't he have asked for help?
Were things really that bad?
Depression is a very, very real thing. Not something to ignore.
I can't really imagine what was going through the mind of the man on the tracks. Money problems, marital issues or health concerns?
Clearly, very despondent and without hope. Not believing in the possibility of change.
I get it. I understand and I in no way judge the man on the tracks.
But I have to have hope. I have to believe that no matter how dark things get there is always a part of us that stays good, that wants to live and soar and thrive. It might be a very small part of us, but it is there all the same.
I am sorry and sad for you, man on the tracks. I hope you found peace.

A Trinitarian Ontology of Missions
Bosed on the premise that nature and action are inextricably linked, it is contended that any con-strual of missional theology as the church's participation in the missio Dei, cannot disregard the doctrine of the immanent Trinity. Four images of the Trinity are appropriated as theological maps for a critical and "thick"description of missions. The trinitarian paradigms characterising the three divine Persons as Source, Word and Love (emphasised by the Greek, Protestant and Latin traditions respectively) are used to counterbalance the contemporary bias toward a social Trinity, which draws its inspiration from the classical doctrine of perichoresis. In the processional model, God's transcendence secures a theocentric missiology, while the reciprocity of the Son and Spirit is correlated to incarnational and charismatic ministry. The linguistical paradigm points to our participation in the mission of the Word that demands both proclamation and action; the eternal dialogue within God prompts our continual hearing and speaking, in relation to God and the world. The dispositional image highlights the Spirit of love, who brings about mis-sional spirituality, humility and unity, even as the loving embrace of the Father and Son leads us to participate in the sufferings of those at the margins. Finally, the perichoretic model of the Trinity points to the inseparability of the missio Dei and the imago Dei, being and doing, the self and the Other. The oneness of the divine mission implies an integral missional praxis that is rooted in the worship of this triune God.

I remember my first drawing obsession: Jesus Christ up there on the cross. The Catholic church my family went to, St. John's in Swampscott MA has a nice one if memory serves correctly. The crucifiction is one hell of a compelling image - an amazing illustration to an incredible story. So it was with wide eyed, slack jawed astonishment that I read this story. There are some real F-wads running our schools these days.
An 8-year-old boy from Taunton was sent home from school and ordered to undergo a psychological evaluation after drawing a stick-figure picture of Jesus Christ on the cross.
The Taunton Gazette reports the boy's father was called earlier this month by Maxham Elementary School officials who informed him his second-grade son had created a "violent drawing." An image of the drawing published on the paper's Web site shows a crucified Jesus with Xs over his eyes, signifying his death.
The teacher was alarmed because the boy drew Xs for Jesus' eyes, said Toni Saunders, an educational consultant working with the family.
"They weren't looking at the fact that this is an 8-year-old child with special needs," she said.The boy was cleared to return to school on Dec. 7 after the evaluation found nothing to indicate that he posed a threat to himself or others. But his father said the boy was traumatized by the incident and the school district has approved the family's request to have the child transferred to another school.
"As far as I'm concerned, they're violating his religion," the father told the Gazette.
He added his son drew the picture shortly after the National Shrine of Our Lady of La Salette in Attelboro to see its Christmas display. He made the drawing in class after his teacher asked the children to sketch something that reminded them of Christmas, the father said.
Superintendent Julie Hackett said she could not discuss an individual student and did not address the drawing specifically or the teacher's reaction to it, but did say the school has safety protocols in place that were followed.
In June 2008, a Taunton fifth-grade student was suspended for a day for a stick figure drawing that appeared to depict him shooting his teacher and a classmate.

should i downgrade my kernel? help please
i have problems with installing my nvidia drivers, should i downgrade my kernel which is 2.4.20-8 because the kernel nvidia is looking for is 2.4.18
sounds like you dont have your kernel source installed.
if the nvidia.run file does not have a precompiled driver for you, if compiles one on the fly.
you need your kernel source and gcc installed.
anyway.... if you are having problems with hardware support, you should UPGRADE !
not downgrade... there are very few reasons to downgrade.
just get the new kernel sources or the existing will also do
check if anyone supports ur driver
and upgrade...
it will surely work
i can't install the kernel sources :( using tar.gz but i have the error tried to work out with the IGNORE_CC_MISMATCH. btw how can i get that kernel?

In Turkey, where the book had sold at least 6000 copies,[74] a prosecutor launched a probe into whether The God Delusion was "an attack on holy values", following a complaint in November 2007. If convicted, the Turkish publisher and translator, Erol Karaaslan, would have faced a prison sentence of inciting religious hatred and insulting religious values.[75] In April 2008, the court acquitted the defendant. In ruling out the need to confiscate copies of the book, the presiding judge stated that banning it "would fundamentally limit the freedom of thought".[76]
Dawkins' website, richarddawkins.net, was banned in Turkey later that year after complaints from creationist Adnan Oktar (Harun Yahya) for alleged defamation.[77] By July 2011, the ban had been lifted.[78]

The attitude of some trainers towards the general public during the build up to big races has often been unhelpful at best.
They have on occasions forgotten that punters contribute significantly to their livelihood. It has seemed beyond their grasp that interest and participation need to be fed with insight and information. That situation may now deteriorate.
Before the 1,000 Guineas at Newmarket, Sir Michael Stoute made it very clear that he wasn't sure his filly Russian Rhythm was in the form of her life. She clearly wasn't burning up the gallops and he must have had moments when he doubted that she had trained on through the winter. He was up-front and voiced those concerns.
Come race day, for whatever reason, she came back to herself. Who knows why? Maybe she had got lazy and complacent at home? Biology is an inexact science.
In the immediate aftermath of the race, the Attheraces television channel resembled a disgruntled betting shop. "He's done us up like a kipper" seemed to be the general sulk. If I was Sir Michael Stoute I would be bloody certain that I would never spend any of my time talking to them again.
A fortnight ago it was Aidan O'Brien's turn to be left wondering why he should ever bother to put himself out for certain sections of the racing press.
O'Brien held a press conference after the Derrinstown Derby Trial, in which his Vodafone Derby hope Brian Boru had been beaten.
By way of outlining why all was not lost for Epsom he explained: "We were trying to get Brian Boru to do the thing right, rather than win the race."
Classic horses have to be made; they aren't bought off the shelf as a finished article. They have to be taught to go about the job in a controlled manner.
Instead of accepting that O'Brien was referring to this process, the Racing Post newspaper decided to make mischief.
By that evening, O'Brien's remarks had come to the notice of the Irish Turf Club, presumably courtesy of someone at the press conference: maybe the Racing Post's representative?
The next day the Racing Post reported with glee that the trainer's remarks might land him in hot water for not doing everything possible to win the trial.
O'Brien's willingness to be open and honest with the betting public turned round and slapped him in the face. His horse had clearly not been a non-trier in the trial. Can we honestly ever expect him to say another dickie bird about his horses?
If both these trainers play the press, and subsequently the fans and punters, with a dead bat from now on it will be hard to blame them.
THE race to stage the 2005 Royal Ascot meeting, assuming that the Queen's track will be in mid-reconstruction, looks to be between York, Newbury, Newmarket and Cheltenham. The criteria appear to be the ability to fit in vast crowds and being able to produce a surface that will take five days of racing.
York is odds-on. At first glance it wouldn't appear to be very user friendly for London-based racegoers. It is, however, only two hours on the train from London. I have spent longer than that sitting in the traffic jams from Ascot to central London.
Cheltenham is an enthusiastic bidder typical of the course. They could undoubtedly handle the event with a degree of style and imagination, but whether they can climb the perception barrier is a big doubt. Newbury is possible but likely to lose out to York.
The thought of the meeting being held on the Rowley Mile at Newmarket is too ghastly to contemplate. Watching them reversing the direction of the escalator up to the boxes could be a good laugh, though.
There is, of course, one other alternative that would meet all criteria - Longchamp. Out of the question? Maybe it's not as crazy as it sounds.
