For a while now I have been looking for natural hair products that I could use. I was literally looking for products that were so natural you could eat them as they say. So you can imagine how happy I was when I was contacted by Morrocco Method to try out their natural hair products. Of course when I initially heard about them being all natural, I thought to myself "I've heard that before." After all the term "all natural" has been so abused and diluted it doesn't necessarily mean anything anymore. To my surprise, they are 100% natural, GMO-free, vegan, gluten-free and cruelty-free products…oh and they are raw and wild-crafted. WOW! Now that is impressive. They certainly had my attention instantly!
I was sent a couple of their shampoos, a conditioner and moisturizer spray, a reconstructive conditioning treatment for the hair and scalp, a styling gel, and a scalp detoxifier. There were a few products I loved more and a few a little less. But let's talk about the ones I loved first.
I absolutely fell in love with the Zen Detox. It basically is a clay mask of the hair that lifts heavy metals and oils out of your hair and scalp. After using it I really saw my hair volumized and shine, it just uplifted my whole scalp. I even used it as a facial mask and that was even more impressive. It left my skin flawless and shiny and my pores were hardly noticeable (which is really a big deal for me seeing as I have big pores). Even to feel my skin it felt so smooth and fresh. Love love love this product!
I love their Blood of the Dragon Styling Gel. It is light but holds well. My husband now uses that as his gel and he really likes it. I am thrilled to have found a gel 100% natural, chemical free that works. I also like the fact it doesn't leave your hair looking greasy or oily.
The Diamond Crystal Mist Conditioner is a leave-in conditioner and moisturizer. I like the refreshing feel of this spray having extracts of Wild Rose and other scented herbs. This spray I like to use on the ends of my hair and at the roots when I need to feel freshened up. I actually used it on my face to freshen up my face and it works great.
The Apple Cider Vinegar Shampoo and The Heavenly Chi Shampoo. These shampoos take a little getting used to. Not having the chemicals in them, they don't suds up like regular shampoos. So, you have to get used to the feeling that it's not cleaning your hair. You really have to massage it in well throughout the scalp and hair. I didn't notice much difference between the two shampoos with my hair. I felt like there was a residue left on my hair after washing with them, although that could be part of the detox process too. But after almost two months, even though my hair does smell clean I don't feel completely clean after using them. However, I have to say that now I no longer need conditioner after washing my hair with them. Having curly hair that is a big deal.
All in all I am happy with the results I am seeing, my hair has so much more volume, feels so thick and curls so well with no added products. I really have no need for gel or for conditioners anymore. That alone makes me happy. I no longer need to wash my hair daily with shampoo. I simply rinse it well with water on the days I'm not using shampoo. Knowing that I am not putting even one chemical on my skin or in my hair makes me very happy, and that alone makes these products well worth it. It just takes some time to get past the initial phase of transition. I really appreciate that a company is so detailed in making sure that not only their products are so clean and natural, but even their packaging, boxes and paper are all recycled properly. That is dedication and I appreciate that.

Hi all.
2 months ago I purchased a Cubieboard 2.0, after doing some research I deciced to install an Aruntu distribution.
Finally I installed Madsonic 5.1.5150. Audio is working fine, but video cannot be played in any case. Browser, external player o android device.

On android it appears the following message about the XML: "Cannot invoke saveContext on response org.springframework.security.web.firewall.FirewalledResponse@564990. Youy must use the HttpRequestResponseHolder.response after invoking loadContext"
As well looking for some info I found that in the tab "About Madsonic" it appears the warning: WARNING no transcoder found!
And there isn't show any clue on log tab.

This tutorial will teach you how to install CyanogenMod 13 Android 6.0 Marshmallow on your Samsung Galaxy S5 device. This version allows you to port the latest version of Android, Android 6.0 Marshmallow to your Samsung Galaxy S5. There is also a tutorial to Install Samsung Galaxy S6 CM13 Android 6.0 Marshmallow. The first devices to run Android 6.0 Marshmallow are the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P. In other words, for the many previously released Android devices, there won't be an Android 6.0 Marshmallow update for quite some time (and there is no guarantee that your device will get updated). You can, however, choose to wait for Samsung to release Android 6.0 Marshmallow for the Samsung Galaxy S5 OR you can get Android 6.0 Marshmallow on your Galaxy S5 via the CM13 ROM developed by albinoman887's over at xda.
In order to install CM13 on your Samsung Galaxy S5 you first need to download the CM13 ROM and simply flash it using a custom recovery like TWRP or Cyanogen recovery (which is available for most devices) with a factory reset/wipe data. he necessary downloads are available for you below. Before you continue, you should note that you would be required to download and install the necessary Gapps package for your version of Android. Currently we have a Gapps 5.1 Lollipop Download page but for this ROM you will need the Gapps 6.0 Marshmallow Download.
The Galaxy S5 CM13 ROM is available for all GSM variants of the S5 running on Qualcomm processor. This includes AT&T S5 G900A, T-Mobile S5 G900T and other klte variants of the device (G900F, etc).
Things you will need:
Gapps 6.0 Marshmallow Download
Download Galaxy S5 CM13 ROM (klte)
└ Get the latest S5 CM13 build from the linked download directory.
Those are the two most important set of files that you need right now and I assume that you've already installed a custom recovery… you wouldn't be reading this if you don't know how to do that, would you? But if you don't have em already, here are the instructions for installing the TWRP recovery on the S5. Once you have all of these prerequisites, move to the next page to learn about the installation process.
TWRP recovery
- Download and transfer the Galaxy S5 CM13 ROM and Marshmallow Gapps file to your device's internal storage.
- Boot your device into TWRP recovery.
- Select "Wipe" from TWRP main menu and do a "Swipe to Factory Reset" on the bottom of screen.
- Go back to TWRP main menu, tap on "Install" and select the CM13 .zip file that you transferred to your device in Step 1.
- After selecting the .zip file, do "Swipe to Confirm Flash" on the bottom of screen to begin the custom ROM installation process. This may take some time.
- Once your ROM is successfully flashed, you'll see "Wipe cache/dalvik" option, select it and then do "Swipe to wipe" on bottom of screen.
- Now flash the Marshmallow Gapps file similarly like you flashed the ROM file.
- After flashing both Galaxy S5 CM13 and Gapps, Reboot your device.
Cyanogen recovery
- Download and transfer the Galaxy S5 CM13 ROM and Marshmallow Gapps file to your device's internal storage.
- Boot your device into Cyanogen recovery.
- Select "Wipe data/ factory reset", then select "Yes" to confirm.
- Now select "Apply update" from main menu and select "Choose from internal storage".
- Select the Galaxy S5 CM13 ROM file that you transferred to your device in Step 1 above.
└ It may begin to install without confirmation.
- Once the Galaxy S5 CM13 ROM is installed, flash the Marshmallow Gapps file like you flashed the Galaxy S5 CM13 ROM.
- After flashing both Galaxy S5 CM13 and Gapps, Reboot your device.
Other CM13 Releases
You might want to check out the guides for the other CM13 Marshmallow releases:
- Install Nexus 4 CM13 Android 6.0 Marshmallow
- Install Nexus 5 CM13 Android 6.0 Marshmallow
- Install Galaxy Note 3 CM13 Android 6.0 Marshmallow
- Install Nexus 6 CM13 Android 6.0 Marshmallow
That's all there is to it. If everything went well, your device will now boot and you will be welcomed by the Android 6.0 Marshmallow setup page. Thanks for reading how to install Android 6.0 Marshmallow cyanogenmod 13 on Samsung Galaxy S5 and I hope that this tutorial has helped you.

U.S. stock prices slipped and the dollar edged higher against the euro Monday as investors watched warily to see if Greece's financial crisis worsens.
Prices of U.S. Treasury bonds also rose as traders sought safer places to invest while the Greek debt saga keeps unfolding.
But crude-oil prices plummeted 7% toward a three-month low as the dollar's strength — oil is priced in dollars worldwide — added to other factors weighing on oil markets.
U.S. markets reopened after a three-day holiday weekend to observe Independence Day and after Greeks voted Sunday to reject creditors' terms for that country's latest bailout package.
The referendum vote heightened fears that if Greece can't reach terms on structuring its heavy debt, its banking system could collapse and bring Greece closer to leaving the 19-nation Eurozone, the block of nations using the euro as their currency.
The vote rattled European stock markets, where key indexes fell from 1.5% to 4%. But the reaction was more muted on American markets, where benchmark indexes lost less than 0.5%.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell 46.53 points to 17,683.58, the Standard & Poor's 500 index lost 8.02 to 2,068.76 and the Nasdaq composite index dropped 17.27 to 4,991.94.
Greece's finance minister, Yanis Varoufakis, resigned under government pressure one day before European leaders plan to hold an emergency meeting in Brussels to deal with the Greek crisis.
Greece, whose banks remained closed, later named economist Euclid Tsakalotos as its new finance minister. And Greece plans to unveil new bailout proposals to its European partners at Tuesday's meeting, government sources told the Los Angeles Times.
Michael Buchanan, deputy chief investment officer for Pasadena-based Western Asset Management Co., said there was some uncertainty among investors early Monday but that "the market has held up reasonably well."
"The good news is investors have had time to manage their exposure to Greece," he said. "We've been talking about Greece since before 2011."
The potential for Greece's problems to rattle the markets certainly remains. A week ago the crisis helped send the Dow Jones industrial average down 350 points, or nearly 2%, in one session.
Mostly, though, "from an individual investor viewpoint I don't think it has a huge impact, and that's why we saw the markets shrug that off" Monday, said Jerry Braakman, chief investment officer at First American Trust in Santa Ana.
The markets' stability also reflects expectations that the European Central Bank would be able to "limit contagion" in the European bond market if necessary, said Blaise Antin, managing director and head of sovereign research at the investment firm TCW Group in Los Angeles.
The Greek crisis "has been a slow-developing train wreck, so people have been positioning their portfolios," he said.
In the U.S. bond market, prices rose as the yield on the 10-year Treasury note fell to 2.29% from 2.38%.
And in foreign-exchange trading, the euro fell 0.48% against the dollar to $1.106.
The dollar's gain helped send the price of benchmark light, sweet crude oil for August delivery down $4.17 to $52.76 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
"The main catalyst here is Greece," said John Saucer, an analyst with the energy advisory firm Mobius Risk Group in Houston. "Any time you see the dollar appreciate versus the euro it has a negative impact on dollar-denominated commodities like oil."
Oil already was under pressure for other reasons, including the potential for Iran oil exports and reports that Saudi Arabia and some other nations in the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries boosted production in June, Saucer said.

BUFFY: I touch the fire and it freezes me.
I look into it and it's black.
Why can't I feel,
My skin should crack and peel.
I want the fire back.
Now through the smoke she calls to me.
To make my way across the flame.
To save the day,
Or maybe melt away.
I guess it's all the same.
So I will walk through the fire
'Cause where else can I turn.
I will walk through the fire,
And let it...
SPIKE: The torch I bear is scorching me,
And Buffy's laughing I've no doubt.
I hope she fries.
I'm free if that bitch dies.
I'd better help her out.
SWEET:'Cause she is drawn to the fire
Some people never learn (SPIKE: She will never learn)
SWEET/SPIKE: And she will walk through the fire and let it...
GILES: Will this do a thing to change her?
Am I leaving Dawn in danger?
Is my Slayer too far gone to care?
XANDER: What if Buffy can't defeat it.
ANYA: Beady-eyes is right, we're needed,
Or we could just sit around and glare.
GROUP: We'll see it through
It's what we're always here to do.
So we will walk through the fire.
BUFFY: So one by one they turn from me.
I guess my friends can't face the cold (TARA: What can't we face?)
But why I froze not one among them knows (TARA: If we're together?)
And never can be told
(Sung at the same time as the scoobies)
SWEET: So one by one they come to me.
The distant redness as their guide.
But what they'll find.
Ain't what they have in mind.
It's what they have inside.
(Sung at the same time as sweet)
ANYA: She came from the grave much graver.
SPIKE: First he'll kill her then I'll save her.
TARA: Everything is turning out so dark
Buffy: Going through the motions,
Walking through the part.
SPIKE: No I'll save her then I'll kill her.
WILLOW: I think this line's mostly filler
GILES: What's it gonna take to strike a spark.
BUFFY: These endless days, (SWEET: she will come to me.)
Are finally ending in a blaze.
BUFFY/SPIKE/GROUP: And we are caught in the fire.
The point of no return.
So we will walk through the fire,
And let it burn,
Let it burn,
Let it burn,
Let it burn.

BitDefender, the first winner from Eastern-Europe
November 2002
4-6 November, Copenhagen, Denmark: SOFTWINs technologies proved to be the best antidote against new computer malware. BitDefender Professional was nominated as the first East-European Winner at The European IST Awards Ceremony, among the best High-Tech products of Europe.
I would like to congratulate once again the BitDefender team on the IST award. Personally, I consider that SOFTWINs success reflects the progress of the entire Romanian high-tech industry", said Professor F. G. Filip, Member of the Romanian Academy, Vice-President. "I was very glad when the EU Commissioner Liikanen publicly acknowledged this as the first time when a company from a candidate country to EU qualified among the Winners of the IST Prize in equal conditions of competition and that this country is Romania. I was deeply touched when the 4000 participants warmly applauded this announcement" concluded Prof. Filip.
With a considerable influence over the informational society, the IST event was attended by more than 4000 people, including officials of the European Commission, the 18 academies - European IST Prize Executive Jury, the Euro-CASE Executive Committee, other participants and media invited.
The European IST Prize is the most distinguished Prize for innovative Information Society Technologies products, said Alain Mongon, in charge of the European IST Prize for Euro-CASE. I am very pleased to invite this years Winners, including for the first time a Romanian company, SOFTWIN, to join the select European IST Prize Winners Club, concluded Mr. Mongon.
Along the previous 8 editions, 20 prizes have been awarded to the EU member countries and 5 other prizes have been granted to the Eastern-European countries, candidates to the EU. Starting with last year, companies from candidate countries went into the competition with equal chances; however there was no Winner from the former communist countries in 2001.
It is a pleasant surprise for me to discover that we have here among the Winners of the IST Prize 2003, for the first time, a Romanian company, Mr. Erki Liikanen, EU Commissioner for Enterprise & Information Society, admitted on the IST Awards Ceremonys stage. It is even more surprising as I know that this is just the second year when Eastern-European companies participated with equal chances to a very challenging competition, Mr. Liikanen concluded.
BitDefender has been emphasized as a European brand, representing the future of the Romanian software industry. The IST prize granted by the European Commission in 2002, the first ever to be obtained by a Romanian IT&C company, represents an outstanding success not only for SOFTWIN, but also for the entire Romanian software industry. This prestigious prize awarded at the end of a very tough competition demonstrates the potential of our software industry and highlights the technological and innovative abilities of our specialists. In the end, the informational society is just a huge innovative process scaled to cover the entire society that directs everything towards progress, declared Acad. Mihai Draganescu, President of Science and Information Technology Department at the Romanian Academy.
BitDefender most innovative technologies were demonstrated for the first time in Copenhagen. In a world where the worms spreading with tremendous speeds are no longer myths, the human reaction is no longer acceptable. BitDefenders data protection proactive technology allows stopping in REAL-TIME any attempt to harm a computer system, said Mr. Florin Talpes, President and Co-founder of SOFTWIN, in his presentation before the Executive Jury.
The European IST Prize is placing the Romanian solution among the best European IT products of this time. 437 innovative companies and organizations from 27 countries competed for this years Prize - the highest number of participants since the inception of the Prize scheme in 1995. Among these 437 participants, only 20 received the "Winner" title, "for groundbreaking products that represent the best of European innovation in information society technologies".
The 20 Winners, who were exhibiting in the IST Prize Village during the IST event, were announced on September 20. 17 of these Prizewinners received 5,000 and the European IST Prize Winner Certificate at the EISTP Award Ceremony, while the three Grand Prizewinners were awarded the Grand Prize: 200,000 and the European IST Prize Trophy.
It is an honor for me to chair the Executive Jury of the prestigious European IST Prize, said Thierry Breton, Chairman of France Telecom and Chairman of the European IST Prize Executive Jury. This Prize responds to the need to promote and support the development of a strong European IST sector concluded Breton.
Organized by Euro-CASE with the support and sponsorship of the European Commissions Information Society Technologies (IST) Research Program, the IST Prize confirms the Winners entrepreneurship, sustainable innovative capacity and their ability to make a positive impact on society.
BitDefender Professional v. 6.5 now starts at $44.95, and a free 30-day trial version may be downloaded from http://www.bitdefender.com/evaluation/evaluation.php.

Behold, am I a God that is afar off, and not a God this is near? For in the midst of difficulties, I will be thy support.
In the darkness, I am thy light; yea, there is no darkness that the world can produce that can hide My face from the eye of faith.
My beauty and My radiance are all the lovelier by the contrast.
In grief, My comfort is the more poignant. In failure, My encouragement the most welcome. In loneliness, the touch of My presence, more tender.
Yea, thou art hid in Me; and I will multiply both the wisdom and the strength in due proportion to meet the demands of every occasion.
I am the Lord Thy God. I know no limitations. I know no lack. I need not reserve My stores, for I always have a fresh supply.
Thou canst by no means ever exhaust My resources. Let thy heart run wild. Let thine imagination go vagabond. No extravagance of human thought can ever plumb the depths of My planning and provision for My children.
Rejoice, therefore, and face each day with joy; for I have planned ahead for thee, and made all necessary arrangements and reservations.
I am thy guide and benefactor. Put your hand in Mine.
Come away my Beloved – Frances J. Roberts

White Flag!
I think I'm just going to have to accept that with Henry in his terrible caveman toddler stage (which seems to be at its peak currently) I am not going to be able to successfully do everything.
Henry alone seems to be a full time job. He screams and cries so much. If he's not in my face screaming, then he's destroying something. He won't sleep. He falls asleep, but he won't stay asleep. During nap time I'm lucky if he will sleep alone for 30 minutes without screaming. At night he wakes up tons.
He has always cried a lot more than the girls ever did. As an infant he cried almost all the time he wasn't being held and talked to. He has always wanted constant stimulation, whether it's movement, touch, or eye contact. He craves eye contact and attention! He also seeks sensory input, like banging his head, and slapping, tearing, smashing, yelling, jumping, rubbing. Probably not out of the realm of normal for some toddlers, but exhausting all the same.
I'm finding it impossible to give the girls as much attention as I would like. Instead I spend time dragging Henry around keeping him from head butting them, or wrestling him while he screams because he saw scissors and he isn't allowed to stab something with them.
Unlike the girls he does not play with toys. Instead he bounces from one thing to the next, anything he can't have he desperately wants. If he can't manage to reach it, or if we take it away, then he will just flop onto the ground and scream. For a long, long time.
He's 19 months old. I hope this is the "terrible two's" because I can't imagine anything much more terrible.
Don't get me wrong, he's sweet and lovely. We adore him. But he is much, much more difficult to manage than the girls! I guess it's just his personality.
So I can't keep up with the laundry folding, because it requires two hands. I have tried so hard, but after Henry has thrown the 23rd neatly folded stack of clothes I've given up entirely. I can't keep up with a lot of things thanks to my tornado child.
While I'm writing this he's sitting next to me watching Wow Wow Wubzy, his favorite show, and rubbing my arm. He can't even sit still to watch TV. Any second he's going to start fighting with me to slam the laptop lid closed, and he will try to climb all over my body or something. Better hit save while I can!

Look at me, two weeks in a row (pats self on the back-winces in pain because yesterday was "arms day" and they still hurt to move). I don't really have much to tell you. Not a lot has changed in the last week. I'm still fat. I still don't want to exercise. I am still exercising anyway. I want to eat every bad thing I see and I resist the urge almost solely based on the fact that I don't want to write another confessional post.
Two days a week, I go to the gym following my swing shift at work. This shift runs from 5pm to 3 am. The absolute hardest part of working out at this time is getting out of my car. Especially recently as the weather has turned colder (I use that term loosely as "cold" here is when the temperature hits the 40's at night). I get in my car to drive over to the gym and turn on the heater to defrost my windshield. By the time I can see and drive over to the gym, I'm cozy warm and I am loath to get out. It seems that each night gets harder and harder but eventually I work up the (let's be honest) guilt (over having to write about not going in this post) and go inside.
This is one of my favorite times to go to the gym. Surprisingly enough there is barely anyone there. Although it's been said that "misery loves company," I prefer to be alone during my work out sessions. I don't want to make friends and be forced to carry on conversations between desperate gasps for air. It is usually just a handful of people. Last night there was one other person (the employee) in the gym when I finally dragged myself from the car.
There is a long row of roughly 20 exercise bikes. I usually go the last one on the end-that way I can guarantee at least one side of solitude. Last night my favorite bike was waiting for me like a silent, non-judgmental old friend. I began working out. About 3 minutes into my workout (or about 3 minutes after I wanted to stop), an older guy came in and walked straight to the bike on my right. Not to "a" bike on my right, but to "the" bike on my right. Mind you this facility is enormous. Even if he had only wanted to bike he could have chosen any of the other 19 or so. Instead he chose to sit roughly 2 feet from me.
I did my best to ignore him and focus on my exercise or more accurately zone-in on my distraction of choice-Doctor Who. I believe he may have tried to say something to me but I had my ear buds in and didn't respond. If he did attempt to chat me up he quickly abandoned his efforts and focused on his workout. I continued pedaling with the added motivation of pretending I was racing away from the awkward situation.
Then the noises started. At first it seemed like a casual grunt one would expect from physical exertion. But I quickly realized this was not a normal situation. He was breathing loudly on the inhale as well as the exhale. Each exhale began with pursed lips drawn tightly so that the air had to build up pressure before it could escape. Once a sufficient amount of pressure had amassed it began slipping out in short bursts that made a staccato sound not dissimilar to flatulence. When he finished his exhale he began a crescendo of sucking the air back in through his teeth so that it made a wet hissing noise just barely below a whistle. Even now as I reenact it to more aptly describe it to you, I find myself out of breath-leading me to believe that it is not only annoying but incredibly anti-conducive to exercise.
Fortunately, he only lasted ten minutes (I was sure he would have hyperventilated after five minutes) before moving on, mercifully, to the other side of the gym. I could still hear his odd breathing noises as he grunted with each rep on the weight machines. I finished up my own regimen (infinitely more silently) and exited the gym.
As I said before, I prefer to exercise in misery alone. But if I am forced to exercise with other people present then may they all be such productive blog fodder.

ARLINGTON, Va.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The National
Science Teachers Association and the Children's
Book Council have released their annual list of "Outstanding
Science Trade Books for Students K-12: 2016." The list represents
the best trade books published in 2015 for students in kindergarten
through 12th grade.
"The books on the Outstanding Science Trade Books list help students to
explore the world around them," said NSTA President Carolyn Hayes.
"These amazing books will fascinate and captivate student readers with
both their content and style, leaving students wanting to revisit them
again and again to learn more."
Members of a book review panel made up of science educators and literacy
professionals appointed by NSTA selected 49 books for the list from a
roster of roughly 200 submissions. The list of winning titles includes
topics that range from Steve Jobs to flying cars and features
beautifully illustrated picture books, heart-warming stories, reference
and encyclopedia-type texts, and poetry.
The review panel based their decision on their extensive knowledge of
the field and looked for the very best books that they believed would
inspire kids. Books also meet rigorous subject matter guidelines
Science content must be accurate;
Where conflicting scientific theories exist, as many views as possible
are represented; and
- Facts are not oversimplified so that information becomes misleading.
NSTA and CBC have collaborated on the list of Outstanding
Science Trade Books for Students since 1973 in an effort to help
science educators access quality books that support student learning in
science education. In addition to being featured on both organizations'
websites, the list will appear in the March 2016 issues of NSTA's
elementary, middle level, and high school journals for teachers.

TIME ON THE WATER 3rd at J24 worlds qualifier
over 8 years ago by Hugh Styles | permanent link | comments (0)
The newly formed company TIME ON THE WATER owned by Hugh Styles and David Lush had their companies first success, on the bank holiday weekend with Hugh Styles skippering a J24 team to a podium position of 3rd place, this was a great result considering that the team had many changes of crew through the event.
The bank holiday weekend saw a good fleet of J24's competing in the Poole Harbour Regatta 2010 as one of the J24 class worlds qualifiers. The regatta saw a whole range of conditions, with Saturday cold wet and windy, through to Monday with a dropping breeze, sun tans and glassy seas.
Duncan Mcarthy with his local Parkstone Yacht Club team were the class act, with a boat handling edge in the windier conditions, Bob Turnders SERCO team were a close second, snatching one race win and several second place finishes, both of these teams now go onto the Europeans in Holland next weekend for the first major J24 regatta of the year, we wish them all the very best.
The surprise success was the TIME ON THE WATER team finishing 3rd overall behind these two, showing some great potential, as after a slow start to the regatta in the big breeze the teams performance went from strength to strength, finishing the regatta with the best results of any team on the last day Monday.
A great regatta with close racing and a variety of sailing conditions which made for a real test for the teams which are just off to the J24 Europeans in Holland.
TIME ON THE WATER would like to thank all of the members of the crew who, specially to David Lush and David Hepburn and all the owners of the good ship 'Jobs for the Boys', Russell Whitworth, Jules Scott, who were the core team and supported by Ed Lush, Steven Tiernan, Ed Whitehead and Luke, who all played their part in making it a successful regatta. Then TIME ON THE WATER would also like to thanktheir supporters and sponsors, Magic Marine, Towergate Mardon, Laser Perfoermance Europe, Pelican Racing, Marine Resources, Gill, Marlow Ropes, Nacra Europe, Boskalis.
The next activity is the SB3 event in Seaview on the Isle of Wight in a weeks time.

Since last weekend Adam Piggott and I have driven the X40 to Hyeres for the next Extreme 40 event, and then travelled the length of Europe to come to Texel for the 31st edition of the Round Texel race, on Saturday the 7th June. The day was a mixed affair, with light offshore wind from the North East to begin with, and tide underneath the boats at the start. This pushed a big group of boats over the line early and a few black flag infringements were signalled. But for the Fat Face team, of Hugh Styles and Adam Piggott, they benefitted from the situation, with a near perfect start, and a clear lane off the line, they were with the leading boats for the first mile. The sea breeze started to kick in and made for tricky tactical decisions, either staying in by the beach with a good angle for the breeze, or going off shore for the building sea breeze. Hugh and Adam positioned well and rounded the first gate, first F18 with a 100m lead, they extended this to 200m by the next mark the VC bouy. The downwind did not go so well and the team were not able to maintain the lead and dropped, back. But put in a late charge through into the finish, when the wind increased in the last 5 km to the line. Finishing 10th the team were pleased and gutted all at the same time. Hugh commented "Through to the half way point we were sailing really well together and this maintained, but we just couldn't get going on the downwind. The good thing is this regatta has given us lots of good training time and we feel we are right on top of our game on the boat. When we get to Vigo for the F18 worlds in 3 weeks time we will be well prepped and on fire, watch this space!!
All the best and many thanks to all our sponsors:

Styles and Crawford win Texel Dutch Open
over 11 years ago by Hugh Styles | permanent link | comments (0)
On Friday June 22 2007, the British Fatface-team Styles/Crawford won the Texel Dutch Open after an exciting conclusion. In the end, the gap to Dutchmen Heemskerk and Tentij was only half a point. The British F18 Capricorn duo Gummer/Burke were third. The Open Class I showed new leaders, as both F18 Nacra Infusion teams Huntelman/Van der Kamp and De Koning/Van Leeuwen took a bullet. Thanks to a moderate south-western wind, the course was laid out along the coast, which gave a good view for the people on the Texel beach. They witnessed the battle against the current while beating upwind. The consideration whether to choose for less current or more pressure, made it an exciting game. In the very last race, Hans Primowees was finally beaten once in the Open Class II. He finished second after the British Nacra 500 of Luke and Adam Butler, but he won the overall series. Later in the afternoon, Heemskerk and Tentij won the TNG Short Track Races.
Dutch Open day 1
over 11 years ago by Hugh Styles | permanent link | comments (0)
Today was the first day of the Texel Dutch Open, this is the regatta just before the round Texel Race this weekend.
We were onfire won both races today, sailing the Fat Face boat. Racing was postponed for 3 hours and so we went out and did 2 hrs of training with our Nacra Infusion team mates Mischa Heemskerk and Sebastian Tenji. This really paid off as once the racing got underway at 4.30pm we has very good speed.
We started really welll, punchy some might say, but then sailed conservatively which worked to our advantage, taking places in race 1 and leading from the front in race 2.
Looking forward to another good day tomorrow.
Ciao for now.
Geneva Bol D'or X 40 racing
over 11 years ago by Hugh Styles | permanent link | comments (0)
Today saw us launch the Offshore challenges X40 onto the waters of lake Geneva. This is rather a relief for me as this week has been a bit epic. Monday saw 24 hrs of travelling picking up vans, trailers and sorting out Swiss customs for an X40 container.
We have managed to get the boat all tickled and out for a sail on the lake. We have seen some wacky cats out there sailing, some 28 ft cats and then the daddy of the lakes catamarans the, One Design 35's. Ernesto Bertarelli's (of Alinghi AC fame) boat, and his sisters boat with its all girl crew were also out training for the event. They are amazing machines completely over canvassed and doing 3 times the wind speed up and downwind, in what most of us in the UK consider to be un-sailable conditions.
Funniest of the day was upwind hull flying past this motorboat which was drifting in the middle of the lake and we interrupted a couple naked as the day they were born in a rather compromising position. Didn't stop them though and the cheeky bloke gave us a wave too.
Tomorrow is corporate sailing and training prior to the BOL D'OR which starts this Saturday with 530 competing boats and a race up and down the 83 miles of lake. Shouldn't take too long, but last year some of the fastest boats took over 17 hrs to complete the course!! Aaargh hope its windy this year!!

S/QLD RM Championship - 6th May 2017
Pine Rivers Radio Yacht Club
11 boats were registered for the event with 9 boats making it onto the water. All skippers stayed with their A rigs for the full day as the winds were fairly steady, blowing S/SW in the morning turning to S/SE in the afternoon. This necessitated only one course change.
Greg Torpy won the day on 14 points clear ahead of Jason Nasmith on 39 points followed by Ray Nasmith on 43 points.
It was a most enjoyable day for competitors and organisers with little or no disputes and any issues sorted out on the water, a definite tribute to all skippers in the event.
The PRO for the day was Bruce Frazer, Bruce and his helpers did an excellent job. David Black again offered his assistance with the scoring which was readily accepted.

After once more, the folks at Liberty Worldwide set themselves a challenge… at 22 pages, this is the shortest, but almost certainly the most potent report but from Liberty Worldwide. Please note that the workshop supplies had been designed for the benefit of the Design the New Organization platform and are licensed beneath the Inventive Commons to keep coherence. SCORE's all-volunteer group of tiny enterprise mentors can answer all your most pressing inquiries and guide you down the very best path. The purpose of the solution development procedure is to end up with the best possible solution.
Plus the concept that creating a Kleeneze enterprise tends to make you a businessman or lady is a farce several I saw would not last five minutes in a actual company , the thought these expertise are transferable are farcical. A recycling business wants little in the way unique gear, no storefront, and (typically) extremely small storage space. They can develop into very critical firms employing thousands of workers and producing output worth millions of dollars.
Seems to me he looked at the information and came to a correct company like decision – cold tough details are required in todays finacial climate. They encourage businesses to move to locations with a higher level of unemployment, or named improvement places.
As a woman entrepreneur, you could be eligible for enterprise assistance coaching and microloans to aid you start your organization. Nebraska law offers that an entity that is administratively dissolved continues its existence but may not carry on any business, except organization needed to wind up and liquidate its business and affairs. On the women's side, we have 2016 occasion commitments from Connecticut stars Nykesha Sales and Svetlana Abrosimova among other folks. For instance, it is unlikely that you'd be capable to run an automotive repair company in a residential location.
If you are an entrepreneur facing mental well being or addiction challenges you could get $300 to $ten,000 to support start off, grow or promote your business. Google will also be there to share classroom-style workshops staffed by our group on how to develop and market your company on the web, and mastering search engine approaches. The new plight of the little company owner in New York City is that, a lot more and more, you feel alone in this, simply because it is a shrinking club and the membership charges are too higher. Customer Credit Act: tends to make it illegal to not give buyers their copy of the credit agreement to check how a lot income they really have. This does not mean that expertise is unimportant when launching a new enterprise in an emerging market place. But this can perform in either path, based on how organization owners view their role as home owners.

"Do No Harm" – Video project for the awareness about doctors suicide
Currently, a frightening phoenomenon is happening in US. According to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, there is the highest rate of suicide among all professions in America.
About this fact, Robyn Symon, a two-time Emmy Award-winning filmmaker, launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise funds for DO NO HARM, a feature-length documentary on the rate of doctors suicide. The message of this film is:
"This terrible thing is happening, and here are the horrible stats. Here are the reasons why it is happening, and here are the wide range of victims. Here are the things that could be changed, and some of the players who could use their power and influence to bring about change. Let's all consider this film to be a call to action."
"For every doctor who dies by the act of suicide, thousands more contemplate the act, and many thousands more are depressed, and/or dangerously fatigued due to marathon work hours. The sleep deprivation experienced by doctors adds risk to every patient they treat, and medical mistakes are now the third leading cause of death – affecting us all. Our doctors work within a system that fosters unrealistic expectations, imbues them with an inability to either emote, admit their humanity, and/or seek counsel, and forces upon them unsafe parameters and conditions that puts them and their patients at risk. It is not unusual for a hospital (or medical center) physician to treat several thousands of patients per year. Given the current annual physician suicide rate, this means more than 1 million patients are directly impacted – each year! Yes, this qualifies – not only as an epidemic, but as an urgent public health crisis. And we're all affected.
"When you haven't slept in days it's like you're under the influence. And you're making life and death decisions in that state."
Delicia Haynes, M.D.

|TANNINS (Taninos)
1. A deposit of ellagic acid formed in and on leathers tanned with vegetable tannins of the pyrogallol class, probably as a result of the action of enzymes native to the original source, i.e., bark, acorns, etc. Although bloom affects the physical properties of leather in that it increases weight yield, firmness, and water resistance, it is deposited in insoluble form and is not chemically combined with the fibers of the leather. Its presence at times gives an unsightly appearance to the leather.
2. A misty surface appearance in an illustration, caused by an excess of acid or too much drier in the ink.
3. The dulling film that sometimes appears on varnish and glossy paint films, particularly in industrial atmospheres. It usually consists of minute crystals of ammonium sulfate produced by the reaction between sulfur dioxide, ammonia, and oxygen in condensed moisture on the film. Bloom can appear on a freshly lacquered surface when rapid evaporation of the solvents causes the temperature of the surface to fall below the dew point. Moisture is deposited on the film, causing a limited precipitation of cellulose nitrate and giving the film a permanent cloudy appearance.
A vegetable tanning material obtained from the dried pods of a tree or shrub, Caesalpinia spinosa, which is found in widespread areas of north western South America. The tannin content of the pods is said to range from 35 to 55%. The principal value of tara is in the tanning of light leathers, and, under certain circumstances, it may also be used as a substitute for sumac or gambier to produce light-colored leathers. Tara is of the pyrogallol class of tannins, somewhat similar to, but more astringent than, sumac. Its major shortcoming seems to he the presence in it of diffusion-inhibiting mucilaginous material. It is also used to some extent in dyeing and the manufacture of ink. See also: VEGETABLE TANNINS .
A group of complex hydrocarbon substances common throughout most of the vegetable kingdom, and having the capability, to a greater or lesser degree. of converting hide and skin, i.e., protein, into leather. Tannins are complex organic materials, and frequently have very large molecules and high molecular weights, on the order of 2,000 or greater, although it is still not certain whether they might better be considered macro-molecular substances. i.e., those with very large molecules and high molecular weights which break down into smaller fragments. Tannins were at one time classed with the glucosides because of the sugar groups that most of them contain but they are now more often regarded as constituting a class by themselves, as some, e.g., the hemlock tannins, do not have the sugar group in the molecule. In addition to carbon. hydrogen, and oxygen, some nitrogen, phosphorus, as well as traces of inorganic ions, may be present.
Vegetable tannins for the most part are uncrystallizable colloidal substances with pronounced astringent properties. They have the ability to precipitate gelatin from solution and to form insoluble compounds with gelatin-yielding tissues. which is the property which enables them to convert raw hide and skin into leather, consolidating the dermal network of the hide into firmer and drier structures of improved thermal stability, durability, and water resistance.
Because they are extremely complex substances, vegetable tannins are difficult to classify; however, they are usually considered to consist of polyphenolic systems of two types: the hydrolized tannins (the pyrogallol class), the main constituents of which are esters of glucose with acids such as chebulic, ellagic. gallic and m-digallic; and the condensed (catechol) tannins. which are based on leuco-anthocyanidins and like substances joined together in a manner not clearly understood. The pyrogallol tannins may be hydrolyzed by acids or enzymes and include the gallotannins (from plant galls) and the ellagitannins. which produceBLOOM (1) on leather, and which are characteristic of divi divi, myrabolans, sumac, tara, valonea, and other well-known tannins. The condensed tannins are not hydrolyzable and are characteristic of hemlock, mangrove, quebracho, wattle, and the like. The condensed tannins are more astringent, i.e., they tan more rapidly, than the pyrogallols have larger molecules and are less well buffered. They yield less sediment. or lose less upon standing, but the leather they produce often tends to turn a reddish color upon exposure to natural light. They also yield phlobaphenes or REDS .
The terms "condensed" and "pyrogallol," as such do not mean that the tannins contain these substances but simply indicate that dihydric and trihydric phenols are produced respectively when the materials are heated (dry distillation). Quite often the "tannin" derived from a plant material. e.g., oak bark. has characteristics of both groups and consequently is generally considered to be a mixture or compound of the two principal types.
The two classes of tannin also display different reactions towards acqueous solution of iron salts. The condensed tannins produce green-black colors while the pyrogallol class gives blue-blacks (a reaction important in the manufacture of some inks). Furthermore, they differ in their tanning properties. Pyrogallol tannins, for example, being less astringent than the condensed class, tan more slowly and produce leather of less solidity. In addition, when extracted from the plant they generally contain smaller molecules of tannin. and, being better buffered. i.e., containing weak organic acids and their salts, they resist changes in pH value when acid or alkali is added.
For a complete and even reaction with the skin or hide to take place during tannage, it is necessary to use the tanning material in the form of a liquor, i.e., an aqueous infusion of the plant material. Modern tanneries use extracts that are concentrates of acqueous liquors. the latter usually being concentrated under reduced pressure to provide highly viscous or even solid products. Other materials extracted are known as non-tannins (abbreviated non-tans) and may include: hydrolysis products of the tannins, starches, gums, hemicelluloses, poly-saccharides, hexoses, pentoses, uronic acid. organic acids (lactic and acetic), together with their salts, inorganic salts, proteins and zymoproteins (enzymes), if the temperature is not too high, as well as coloring matters such as brasilin, fisetin, and quercetin.
Vegetable tanning liquors are extremely complicated in their chemical composition, and the tannin/ non-tannin ratio, the color, and the particular substances involved have a considerable (and far from completely understood) bearing on their tanning properties and, therefore, on the quality of the leather produced.
Although tannins occur throughout the greater part of the vegetable kingdom, they are more prevalent among the Angiosperms, or higher plants, especially in certain Dicotyledon families, than they are among the lower types, such as fungi, algae, etc. The Gymnosperms also have classes in which tanning is well developed, e.g., the pines, spruces and hemlocks.
The Dicotyledons include many families in which tannin occurs quite freely, among which the most noteworthy are the Leguminosae, e.g., the black wattle; the Anacardiaceae, e.g., quebracho and sumac; the Combretaceae, e.g., myrabolans; Rhisophoraceae, e.g., mangroves; Myrtaceae, e.g., eucalyptus; and Polygonaceae, e.g., canaigre.
Tannin may occur in almost any part of a plant, including roots, stems or trunk, hark, leaves, fruit, and even hairs. It may occur either in isolated individual cells, in groups or chains of cells (the more common occurrence), or in special cavities or sacs. It may also be present in latex vessels and lactiferous tissue accompanied by other substances.
In the living plant, tannin is present chiefly in solution in the vacuoles. As the cell ages and loses its protoplasmic contents, the tannin usually becomes absorbed in the cell wall; in dead plant tissue tannin often accumulates in considerable quantities. Tannins often occur in green or immature fruits, the quantity decreasing as the fruit ripens. and they may also occur in seeds. often becoming more abundant following germination. Tannin is also quite prevalent in tissues as a result of pathological conditions, such as plant galls. Certain of these galls constitute the richest sources of tannin in plants, e.g., Chinese galls, which have a tannin content ranging from 50 to 80%.
The use of vegetable tannins in the manufacture of leather probably predates recorded history, and there is creditable evidence that they were in use in Egypt as far back as 5000 B.C.
The ancient Greeks and Romans were well versed in the art of vegetable tanning and evidence indicates that vegetable tannins were used in China many thousands of years ago.

The Women's Gaiter Trousers No. 1 are advanced trekking trousers for long adventures in the outdoors, any time of the year. An innovative gaiter function makes it possible to adapt the trousers to different types of weather and terrain. In warm weather the lower section of the leg can be taken off to turn the trousers into shorts, just like a normal pair of zip-off trousers. The removed section has a drawcord adjustment at the calf that together with the boot hook in the leg ending transforms this section into a gaiter that can protect your legs in brush-filled terrain, both in the mountains and the jungle. In colder weather conditions, the trousers can be worn over a base layer and the zips along the thighs opened for ventilation. Two large leg pockets can hold a map and compass In addition to the hidden boot hook, the leg endings are equipped with eyelets to which laces or metal loops can be attached – yet another way to fasten the trouser leg and prevent brush or snow from forcing its way into the boot shaft.
Gaiter Trousers are made from wind and water resistant G-1000 Eco with recycled polyester and organic cotton and extra strong G-1000 HeavyDuty in the rear, pockets and gaiter sections. As in all of Fjällräven's Numbers garments, the fabric and details were chosen to minimise their impact on the environment – for example most of the leather details are made from leftover pieces of leather – and to make it easy to replace exposed sections after years of use.
- Fabric: G-1000 HeavyDuty (65% polyester, 35% cotton)
- Map pocket
- Pre-shaped knees
- Elastic waist
- Comfort Fit
- Weight: 740g
For over 50 years Fjällräven has had a strong driving force, to develop products that make it easier for people to enjoy the countryside. Their functional, durable and timeless designs sets Fjällräven apart from their competition. The company is best known for its durable and adaptable G-1000 fabric found in many of their products.
Åke Nordin may not have known that he was creating an international company when he turned his passion of creating backpacks into Fjällräven, back in 1960, but since then Fjällräven's products has sold in over 20 countries. Since its Örnsköldsvik beginnings, Fjällräven has continued to produce innovative, functional products which are appreciated by generations of outdoor enthusiasts across the world and which have also received a number of distinguished awards over the years.
From its very first innovative framed backpacks and lightweight outdoor jackets, Fjӓllrӓven has stayed true to its original mission, not only through the products they produce but their stance on protecting the environment that they draw their inspiration from. Fjӓllrӓven is always looking for new ways to reduce its environmental impact; from its innovative, PFC-free Eco-Shell fabric to its highly ethical and fully traceable Down-sourcing programme.

The Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Lorraine
Dear friends, it is a deeply worried Foggy that types at you this evening.
It has come to my attention that a flamewar of atrocious, vicious cruelty is musically erupting in our midst.
I have no idea who this woman is, where she may be, if she's alive, dead or merely undecided, if she's living in a cardboard box on the streets or in a exponentially more expensive blingified concrete box in Dubai. I've no clue as to what the hell she's supposed to have done, but nothing could conceivably justify what threatens to be a sustained and coordinated assault. It's simply uncivilised. If she lives, and if she's plugged into the musical zeitgeist, I dare say she's hurting bad. It must seem to her that she's living in a cruel, uncaring, hostile world. This has me deeply concerned. I feel some steps must be taken to push back this tidal bore of bile. And perhaps rescue this poor soul from this aggression.
This woman is getting more beef than Biggie Smalls. And I'm not talking about steak here – though god knows Biggie was called Biggie for a reason. Ah yes, we've seen this before, the whole East Coast/West Coast Rap feud – which bore all the hallmarks of a goldrush-era hillbilly clanwar but with less than half the rationality. But with considerably more G-Funk. Musicians have been gunned down in their dozens for insults one tenth of a percent as blatent as Lorraine gets every hour, of every day, for years as far as I can determine. I simply have not been able to fully chart how far down the rabbit hole goes. I hazard a guess that we're looking at a great deal of potential subsidence damage to properties above. It's bloody deep, that's the gist of what I'm trying to get across here. Okay. Placing things in perspective, Mr. Smalls was in no way a spring chicken, the man was more than capable of looking after himself. In what has to be admitted is a music scene with a Neanderthal attitude towards homosexuality, Biggie had the courage, the confidence and the dignity to broadcast his gayness loud and proud by covering the gayest single ever released in human history, a tune where the camp is turned all the way up to 11. Not 10, all the way up to 11. Diana Ross. I'm coming out. It must have taken massive courage, balls of steel no less, to jam along to that while Ross frequently interjected with the self-explanatory exclamation 'I'm comin!' followed by a loaded pause before concluding with: 'out.' Cheeky. Very cheeky. Biggie Smalls was a player of the game. He brooked no compromise, dodged no meal, no matter how big. He lay into musical rivals. A bit. We're talking flappy hands, pulling hair and scratching here, bitching. Handbags! Hardly a bloodfeud. Nowhere was anybody – as I understand the affair – ever spending thirty years of their life preparing to avenge the slaying of their dear Papa. Nope. No Diego Montoya to be seen anywhere.
Biggie Smalls is incontrovertably, entirely and completely dead as a rock. They gunned him down. So read on.
I'm in the midst of compiling a dossier. This dossier will need no hint of sexing up. I do not anticipate any problems with the BBC on this – I will not, I feel, be forced to dismiss the Director General over this matter. I will not be bitch-slapping the Corporation silly up and down the law courts. I'm not a deceitful, cowardly, manipulative warmongering bully. I'm not Her Majesty's Government. This one's going straight down the middle.
While my dander's still up, I'll lay before you a couple of typical examples of what my vigil has established. The list is running in the thousands already. I merely wish to expose the tip of the iceberg, if you'll indulge me.
Item A. A notorious example. I Can't Stand Lorraine, originally written and performed by one Anne Peebles in 1973. Subsequently covered and re-released no less than seven times over the subsequent decade, ranging from Humble Pie in'74 and in a disco mix from Eruption in 1978, reaching number 18 in the US charts at that time, to Tina Turner in 1984 in her Private Dancer LP, and then in 1985 as a single, adding insult to insult in a frankly reprehensible double-deuce. Even Seal managed to swing his boot in as part of his 2008 album Soul. Though one gathers nobody noticed at the time. Credit is due to Missy Elliot, who used a sample of the song as the chorus to her 1997 debut single Lorraine (Supa-dupa-fly), getting one back in for the girls. Sadly, it was no less of a steaming pile of shit despite this.
Hopefully you're all beginning to grasp the scale of this thing.
Item B. One of the worst repeat offenders of them all, with the original release followed by an improbable twenty-five cover versions from performers ranging through Barney the Dinosaur, Hugh, Pugh, Barney and the rest of that rabble, Tom, Dick, Harry, Rod, Jane, Freddy, Des O'Connor, Winston Churchill, Lady Diana, uncle Tom Cobley, one man and his dog, John Doe, Lord Lucan, Admiral Horatio Nelson, Freddy Krueger, the Queen Alien, Nelson Mandela, Mother Theresa of Calcutta, Sean Connery, Micheal frickin Bolton, Billy Crystal, Neil Armstrong & Buzz Aldrin and the entire original cast of Fame! This song featured in the soundtrack to Cool Runnings. It is more widespread than monotheism. More ubiquitous than broadcaster of the apocalypse Piers Morgan.
It is, of course, the 1972 Johnny Nash release I Can See Clearly Now (Lorraine Has Gone), a thorough hatchet job of a song with well-known lyrics overtly suggesting that Lorraine was in some way a navigation hazard, and even more fancifully actually occluded the sun. For shame, Johnny Nash! Given this exposure, I'm stunned that nobody has been struck by this before. Fear not though, let's push on.
Small crumbs of comfort are scattered about. Billy Myers late '90s abortion Kiss Lorraine was substancially more affectionate towards the mystery lady. Sadly enough this was more than offset by an unfortunate drawback. It was piss-poor. Garbage. No cover versions anywhere in sight, and nor will there be. More significantly, this track is not played six times every hour by Heart FM, a radio station that stretches credulity to breaking point with it's hysterical positioning statment 'more music variety'. This is only true if by which they mean more musical variety than looping the same song over and over and over and over again, for ever. They've come close to this, but not quite. Nothing I have yet seen rivals the Daily Express in its claim to be 'THE GREATEST NEWSPAPER IN THE WORLD'. That's grabbing journalistic integrity by the hojos and yanking them clean off.
Back on topic.
The real tradegy here is that once there was a time when things were so much better. Clearly this was a radically happier stage in Lorraine's life, though it does give some clue to her age. Gene Kelly and the incomparably chirpy Singin' in Lorraine. Awww! How sweet. Gene said it himself – 'what a wonderful feeling'. Rather full-on for those times as well. Still, in some ways quite odd. I'd be put off if my sexual partner started serenading me a capalla-style in the middle of the act. I'd err on the side of caution and chuck on a Marvin Gaye mix. Or as an off-the-wall alternative, perhaps Provokiev. Whatever floats her boat is fine by me. Still, what consenting adults do to each other behind closed doors is none of my business. Unless there's a filmcrew there as well. Then I'm more than interested.
…Moving on.
I'd close this post by appealing to anybody out there – If you know Lorraine, if you know of her, if you know where she might be found, if you are her, even, please, please get in touch with me as soon as you can. Together we're gonna straighten this whole thing out.

The Court Order to Deposit Settlement Funds from a Minor Child's Injury Settlement Must Be Immediately Completed
As briefly explained in other article postings or blogs on this website, in California, when the court orders that settlement funds to be received by a minor must be deposited in a financial institution (FDIC-insured bank or the like) and not disbursed without further order of the court, the order must include a provision that a certified or filed endorsed copy of the order must be delivered to a manager at the financial institution where the funds are to be deposited, and that a receipt from the financial institution must promptly be filed with the court, acknowledging receipt of both the funds deposited and the court order for deposit of funds, pursuant to California Probate Rule 7.953(a). Time is of the essence with the court order to deposit the funds for the benefit of the injured minor child.
To sum up, the check must go in quickly - if the injury lawyer delays too long, then the court will call a hearing known as an "Order to Show Cause" on why it is taking too long. There can be reasonable things that happen to cause a delay too. One time, I had a mother who was the Guardian Ad Litem (GAL) who could not open a bank account in California because she was in the "Chex System." For whatever reason, one bank put out a warning that she is a bank risk to open a bank account. So I had to motion the court to appoint her sister (the child's aunt as the GAL).

Middle Park Walkabout 23/11/12
Overhanging bushes cut back of Vista.
Refuse collectors across the Estate are not putting bins back outside people's houses. Sometimes left up the road or even on the other side. Bins should be placed back where they are collected from and left neat.
Two-wheel parking not resolved in Joan Crescent.
Local residents and services (police etc) want chicanes, not speed bumps; same as Kings' Ground.
Middle Park currently being done by mobile teams; barrow beats are being introduced on the estate in next few weeks.
Areas around greens are not being swept properly. The new barrow system introduced after Christmas should pay attention to those areas. Stan and Tom will monitor.
Cut back bottom of trees where saplings grow causing refuse to become trapped.
Bridge over railway to Harmony Woods not cleaned – who is responsible? Network Rail say they pay RBG to do it. RBG say not true.
A new team is being introduced to deal with untidy gardens.
Water leak at campfield, corner of Gregory.
Temporary repair to junction 'manhole cover' needs permanent solution; been done several times.
Green at New Market Green not litter picked before cutting.
Bollards missing in front of green.
Bollard missing Middle Park Avenue in front of Joan Crescent.
Joan Crescent pathway – leaves swept but not picked up.
Metal posts need checking – several are not deep enough in the ground and are falling over.
Gully blocked at bottom of path near to 74 Joan Crescent been marked to be cleared in summer but not done.
Metal bar across top missing at entrance to park near to Number 11 Joan Crescent.

The swift melanoma of medical tourism, when general public drift to other countries to aim healthcare, has been greatly influenced by the damage cause - prices for learned profession procedures may be two to ten modern times inferior foreign than in one's household rural area. Consumers from mechanized nations are discovering that they can have first-class physiotherapy more than stingily in any nascent countries. Along with the maximising apply for for plastic medical science procedures, several people wander out of the country for reconstructive or ornamental surgery as powerfully.
For many an people, the view of having a ornamental surgery at all, not to bring up active foreign for it, may be alarming. However, a recent research finished by Mintel in Britain reveals that 690,000 decorative medical science procedures have been performed on British adults in 2006 alone. But the prices charged by the UK clinics are high, so Britons appear to be more and more looking foreign for a amended concordat.
A recent scrutiny carried out by "Cosmetic Surgery Answers" shows that 70 proportionality of British citizens would go to Europe to endure ornamental surgery, 17 pct of them would plump for Eastern Europe.Post ads:

Lithuanian integrative medical science clinics (almost all of them ingrained in the wherewithal Vilnius and the second biggest urban Kaunas) brag current instrumentation and can fully ply westerners' needs. The surgeons' suffer gained overseas and time of life of surgical custom at haunt have helped thousands of patients in boosting their facade and self-assurance. Last but not least, UK residents and general public from new European countries can have nonfunctional surgery for a twice over lower damage here.
In Lithuania, Britons can have cosmetic surgery procedures at a damage 2-3 present demean than in the UK. A cosmetic surgery can damage from roughly speaking £4,000 in Britain, and in Lithuania it can amount £1,800. Ear medical science costs from active £2,000 in Britain; in Lithuania it costs £700. Tummy-tuck code of behaviour may fee almost £3,500 in the UK, and £1,700 in Lithuania.
Foreigners who have had plastic medical science in Lithuania seem to be satisfied beside their assessment from all orientation. Robert Wilson from Great Britain had a plastic surgery development a small indefinite amount of eld ago in Kaunas.Post ads:

Three people went to hospitals with injuries after a minivan, commercial box truck and Suffolk public utilities vehicle crashed on the afternoon of December 16, 2016. The wreck happened at the intersection of Route 460/Pruden Boulevard and Kings Fork Road.
The driver and passenger in the minivan suffered the most severe injuries, but the driver of the city work truck also required emergency medical care. The two people in the box truck walked away uninjured.
News reports did not include details on why the crash occurred, and police did not name an at-fault driver. Reconstructing the accident and assigning responsibility will help the innocent victims file and collect on insurance claims for doctor bills, wages lost while out of work recovering and other damages.
The fact that a Suffolk public utilities truck was involved could complicate things, however. Claims against city agents who negligently operate a vehicle are handled by assistant city attorneys, and they must receive notification of intent to seek compensation in a timeframe much shorter than the statute of limitations that applies to most insurance claims related to a traffic accident. Also, some cities have third-party insurance and some are self-insured for certain parts of these types of claims, so it definitely is important to consult with an experienced Virginia personal injury attorney to learn how best to proceed.
Different challenges would arise if the commercial truck driver or the person behind the wheel of the minivan acted negligently or recklessly in causing the crash. For instance, multiple policies issued by different insurance companies for different purposes cover most commercial trucks and truck drivers. Further, a private citizen who injures a government employee can be denied coverage by their insurer, leaving the injured victim without a standard option for seeking compensation.
Consulting with a knowledgeable Virginia personal injury lawyer will help all the people hurt in this Suffolk wreck regardless of who was at fault.
