Most art quilters will say that they started with 'traditional quilting', and I guess by that they are referring to the type of quilts they made. Traditional quilts are made of blocks with even sides with points matching or appliqued patterns, in sizes that are used for beds or as a cover. Sort of like this one:
This was my first quilt. A sampler quilt no less, which is also a common starting point for many.
It had pieced blocks and applique.
I remember buying the fabric for it at a quilting fair in Brisbane and asking for advice from some of the stall-holders, and having doubts over putting these patterned fabrics together!
I also did all the hand-quilting with the help of a stencil to mark the pattern.
In the years since making this I think my style has changed, and even though I still like my first quilt enough to hang it on a wall at home – and not hide it away-, these days I prefer quilts with different attributes. I like uneven or wonky sides, raw edges, bits and pieces, rough textures and irregular effects. So, that seems to me that my tastes have changed over the years.
However, I was looking at this little quilt the other day…
with its irregular sides, no binding around the edges, blocks a little wonky and my early attempts at free motion quilting- can you see the lizard?!
This quilt was made as part of a brown bag challenge with Gatton Quilters.
A bag of scraps and instructions were sent around a group of people and each contributed some further fabric in the chosen colour scheme to construct a block. I think my instructions were along the lines of a pieced block using pieces or strips of varying widths, however…
I realised that my tastes haven't really "changed"..
because this quilt was also actually made years ago, not long after my first quilt. So, even then I liked things to look a certain way, and ever since have been experimenting and trying for a little different each time.
I like the thought that maybe I haven't changed, but just been developing and extending my skills and abilities. There's always room for improvement!

A future of a bowling club at the centre of two warring factions is up for sale as administrators look to sell off a sports club assets.
Blakeborugh Sports and Social Club was put into liquidation in April with Begbies Traynor have been appointed as joint liquidators of the well known club on Bradford Road in Brighouse following its failure to pay a £55,000 debt to HM Revenue & Customs.
Their assets including Albion Bowling Club is now on the market.
Peter Sargent, from Begbies Traynor said it was difficult to say how long the process would take, but said the sale was expected to raise sufficient funds to pay the club's creditors.
"The bowling green has now gone up for sale through Walker Singleton with offers being welcomed until August 22.
There has been some interest from people wanting to but it and re-establish it as a bowling club and others shown interest to knock it down and use it for housing."
Other assets that the Blakes club own include the building on Bradford Road and the football ground of Brighouse Town on St Giles Road.
Mr Sargent confirmed that the in the past the site has been earmarked as a possibility for housing, but the ground is 'a long term project' but an agreement is still in place for Brighouse town to use it.
Following a winding up order at the High Court in August 2014, business advisers Begbies Traynor were appointed to sell off the assets of Blakeborough Sports and Social Club.
Mr Sargent, added: "While it is sad to see the demise of a much-loved and longstanding local amenity, the club has considerable assets in the form of the main clubhouse, a bowling green and Brighouse Town's football ground."
"Agents will be instructed to secure the sites as appropriate and advise on the sale, but we are confident that the sale of the assets will raise sufficient funds to pay the club's creditors."
The sports and social club has had a turbulent past with problems dating back to 2008 when the club decided to sell the bowling club, Albion, in Halifax Road, to settle its debts.
The decision met with opposition from members of the bowling club with significant legal costs being incurred as they contested the plans. Despite finally obtaining permission to sell Albion, this never happened.

Xenomics, Inc. (XNOM.PK) is focused on the testing of urine samples for transrenal DNA. Before the Company's scientists developed its patented Tr-DNA testing methodology, the medical diagnostic field mostly relied on blood samples for DNA testing.
The Company was incorporated in Florida by Dr. David Tomei and Dr. Samuel Umansky after years of leading research in Apoptosis and Genetically Programmed Cell Death. Xenomics is unique as they use the simple collection of urine to detect and monitor for tumors and infectious diseases.
Xenomics' technology also has the ability to detect both HIV and common tuberculosis infections simutaneously. Before this discovery it was believed that it is impossible to detect such DNA in urine. The Company's revolutionary discovery that a trace amount of DNA can actually be detected has opened a new field of biomedical testing.

Day Tours From Bendigo - Melville Caves
Bendigo is situated in the perfect position for taking day tours in the wondrous countryside as there is so much varied and exciting things to do and see.
Bendigo is to the north of Melbourne and to the west of Bendigo about 65km is the fabulous Kooyoora State Park which includes the stunning Melville Caves.
Melville Caves
The Melville Caves are a collection of huge granite boulders sitting on the top of a massive granite tor in the Kooyoora State Park.
They have become infamous as the hiding place of notorious bushranger Captain Melville as he was thought to have used the spaces between these giant boulders as his hideout.
If you would like to take a look at our Melville Caves itinerary then <<click here>>
Jaara Aboriginal People
This area was originally inhabited by the Jaara Aboriginal people who used the rock formations as somewhere to shelter and live, utilising the natural springs and wells for their water supply.
Around this area scarred trees indicate the removal of material by the Jaara for the use of shields and bowls. There has been many items recovered to prove the existence of the former inhabitants including; spear-heads, chisels and quartz flakes.
European Settlers
The first known whites in the area was the party of Thomas Mitchell in 1836 and an early settlement is dated around the 1840âÂÂs. Gold was discovered just north of the caves near Wedderburn in 1852. The resulting Gold Rush drew prospectors to flood into the region and with them came many small holdings.
Captain Melville
During this time an opportunist bushranger names Frank McCallum aka Captain Melville is believed to have used the caves for less savory purposes than the predecessors.
He made good use of the high elevation the huge boulders gave him over the flat plains below, along which gold-bearing coaches travelled. He conducted frequent raids all over western and south-west Victoria and is fabled to have once made off with five billy-cans full of gold. They are rumoured to be buried at Mount Arapiles near Horsham.
Melville was captured on Christmas Eve in 1852 and was found dead in his cell five years later.
During the period between 1852 and 1883 the region yielded 369 nuggets weighing over 1.5kg. One of the most famous nuggets was a massive 49.5kg and was named after the prospector Blanche Barkly at Kingower. There were two other nuggets over 30kg found at Rheola just south of the caves.
The White Swan Quartz Mine operated in Kooyoora State Park during World War II, producing industrial Quartz.
And in 1980 the Caves were listed as a geological monument, and also in the same year a 240 gram nugget was found and that started a minor gold rush which in turn produced a 2.4kg nugget.
Kooyoora State Park offers opportunities for sightseeing, walking, rock-climbing, picnicking, nature studies and camping. Fossicking and gold detecting is only permitted in certain areas.
Bendigo Coachlines are the leading supplier of group transportation for trips and tours in and around Bendigo, VIC.

I figured it was about time I blog about Toyota Land Cruisers because there is really no other material item in this world I love as much as an FJ60 or FJ62. It all started when I was a little kid and my parents bought a new shiny FJ62 in 1989. Ours was off white with fake wood paneling on the side .. a rare version I've come to learn.. and it was love at first sight (even though I was only 5 at the time) . I learned to drive on that truck and when I turned 16 it became my first car. I got a handful of good years in before the odometer broke 320,000 and it just didn't want to run anymore.
My obsession with this truck just became that much greater after we sold ours about 10 years ago. I pretty much have a small heart attack every time I see one drive by (which isn't really that often .. unless I'm on vacation in California) and for years I've been daydreaming about the day when I finally purchase another one.
Well, the hunt is now officially on. I finally feel good & settled here in New England and am ready to increase my quality of life by about 1000x by making an FJ62 my daily driver. It might take a bit to hunt down the perfect one, but I'm determined to find it!

What is a moving insurance?
For a professional, safe and quick relocation it is highly recommended to hire movers with vast experience and good reviews. Unlike regular citizens, a moving company has a better knowledge of all the work that must be done during the whole relocation process.
Moving workers are trained to perform under high pressure and they must have permanent caution not to hit or scratch the items that will be transported. But even they, with all the preparations done, cannot guarantee 100% that the load will arrive fully intact. If one of the items gets damaged, someone has to pay for it and the only one responsible for that is the mover who got it wrecked. For that we have moving insurances that can be usually purchased from the same company that offered you the house insurance. Usually this type of insurance covers 10% of the declared value of your personal property. If your items get damaged or stolen during transit, this policy will help you pay a part of the loss.
For the rest you must file a claim to the moving company within a term of 9 months after delivery. Before you can actually start the whole shipping process you must make an estimated value of your transported cargo, make an inventory list of your items and a claim. After you unpack, if you see any damage to one or more of the objects, you must complete a claim, as soon as possible.
Movers in Van Nuys can do the whole moving process under highest security standards and fully equipped with latest moving and lifting tools. Our company is one of the best in the area of Van Nuys. With the help of modern technology and a thoroughly planning, we guarantee that the risk of bumping or mishandling will be minimized. If any of your items gets damaged, we will be able to pay its full value. If you want to convince yourself about the quality of our services and the benefits we can provide, feel free to check our website. Visit us!

While lame-ass hippies sit in the dark for an hour today from 8:30pm to9:30pm rejecting the very energy that fuels our modern world, we will be celebrating Human Achievement Hour by positively embracing the fantastic progress of the human race.
Below is the Competitive Enterprise Institute's fantastic video from last year explaining Human Achievement Hour (the voice you hear is my husband's):
CEI's Human Achievement Hour has faced some resistance as NewsBusters reported Enviro Wikipedia Assault on Human Achievement Hour. Which is as always pathetic and sad on the part of the deeply negative rejectionist Leftwingers.
You can find articles celebrating and encouraging Human Achievement Hour here, here, here and here.
As well as right here at Shout First where from 8:30pm to 9:30pm we'll be celebrating the greatest human achievements (including but not limited to fire, wine, cheese, electricity, TV, music, books, etc.).

The first days and weeks of a B2B relationship are critical toward driving customer satisfaction and building value. Companies must boost their customer understanding, fully align their functional groups, and improve communications in order to succeed during the onboarding period. And those achievements require appropriate investment.
If your firm just gained a new business-to-business customer, a strong focus on performance in the first days or weeks of serving that customer can boost the lifetime value of the relationship.
However, B2B product and service providers often fail to truly take advantage of the critical period immediately following a contract closure and before the relationship enters a "business as usual" steady state. Half of firms say they don't do a very good job of delivering products and services when and where they're needed during onboarding. Only slightly more companies report that their clients have a solid understanding of what to expect in this period. And only a third of firms rate themselves as doing a very good job of delivering accessible and uncomplicated customer interactions.

When you bite into a piece of meat, eggs or dairy, you're contributing to animal suffering on a massive scale. In the United States alone, more than 9 billion land animals are slaughtered annually for their meat - that's more than 280 lives per second, and doesn't even count the millions of male chicks ground alive just after birth because they're "useless" to the egg trade.
Tragically, the suffering starts long before slaughter. Virtually all animals consumed for food are raised in crowded, disease-ridden factory farms that put profit over animal welfare. Chickens and turkeys are raised to be so obese they cannot walk under their own weight. Mother pigs are housed in gestation crates too small to turn around in, and forced to breed over and over until their bodies are spent. Egg-laying hens are housed in cages so small they cannot even spread their wings.
A Look at Factory Farm Animals
|Pigs in cramped gestation crates on a factory farm.
|A wounded pig trapped inside of a factory farm gestation crate.
|Decapitated chickens hanging from a slaughterhouse conveyer belt.
|Chickens crowded into cages just before slaughter.
Chicken slaughter is especially horrific, as seen in LCA's undercover footage below. The birds are crammed together into small wire cages, piled onto trucks and sent to slaughterhouses that kill the chickens in brutal assembly-line style. The birds are shackled upside-down to a hanging conveyer belt while fully conscious, and dipped into an electrified water bath before a mechanized blade cuts off their heads. The chickens are then plunged into a scalding water tank. Many are scalded alive because the blade fails to decapitate them. (Turkeys are slaughtered using this brutal method, as well).
Even animals from small, so-called "humane" farms suffer greatly. For example, LCA's undercover investigation of the Pel-Freez rabbit slaughterhouse revealed extreme cruelty: Workers hit the rabbits in the head with knives, flipped them upside-down, broke one leg to hang them from a hook, and decapitated them, all while many rabbits were fully conscious and screaming. These rabbits all came from small farms, and many were marketed as "humanely raised."
Instead of filling your plate with violence, LCA urges you spare animals from suffering.
1. Choose delicious, plant-based alternatives. Most grocery stores carry as assortment of vegan meets, cheeses, mayo and more -- check the freezer aisle or produce section.
2. Download LCA's free Eat Cruelty Free guide for helpful tips and recipe ideas.
3. Spread the word! Educate your friends and family on the suffering behind animal products, and share this page on social media. The more people learn about the horrors of the animal industry, the more animals will be spared.

Happy Friday everyone! I've been looking forward to sharing these with you. Based loosely on my chard veggie wraps, these little wraps are really filling (thanks to the tofu) and versatile (you can use any veggies you have on hand).
I can't take any credit for the sauce (the best part!). It's from my favorite cookbook, Deborah Madison's Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone. That book is definitely a great investment if you haven't discovered it already.
I made the sauce thin, like a dip. You could also use less water and make it thicker, like a spread, and slather it inside
- 1 block extra firm tofu, drained
- 2 tsp cooking oil
- several whole cabbage leaves (I used red cabbage, but I bet any type would do)
- Miscellaneous chopped veggies (I used bean sprouts, kale, iceberg lettuce, and carrots)
Peanut Sauce (adapted slightly from Deborah Madison's "Quick Peanut Sauce", Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone)
- 3 Tbsp peanut butter (unsweetened)
- 2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1 Tbsp chopped cilantro
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 2 tsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp brown sugar or agave nectar
- 1/4 cup water (or a little less)
- pinch of red pepper flakes
Chop the tofu. Saute in a saute pan with the oil until golden.
Meanwhile, whisk all the sauce ingredients except the water together. Add the water little by little until you reach your desired consistency.
Chop the veggies into a julienne-style cut. Slice the cabbage leaves lengthwise, forming strips. The tofu should be done by now too.
On a cabbage leaf strip, line up some veggies and tofu slices.
Roll it up!
Dip into that sauce. YUM!

Thank you for your e-mail regarding the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA). I share your concerns about this agreement. ACTA is indeed very problematic and bears many risks. I will therefore vote against it in the European Parliament.
Protecting intellectual property is a legitimate goal, but a number of the means chosen by ACTA are disproportionate and harmful. ACTA would make it easier for holders of intellectual property rights to enforce their interests through 'privatised' means while the rights of users would not be safeguarded to the same extent. The agreement would introduce voluntary cooperation between internet providers and holders of intellectual property rights with the risk that users would face sanctions without due process.
ACTA would, for instance, make it possible to block or filter users' access to the internet. Moreover, the industry would be entitled to claim disproportionate damages because these claims would be calculated based on the sales value of all the files exchanged despite the fact that, had these files actually been sold, the numbers would be far lower. Furthermore, ACTA would make it more difficult for developing countries to access generic (i.e. affordable) medications.
Moreover, the way in which ACTA has come about is problematic. It was negotiated in secret talks by a 'coalition of the willing' against the opposition of developing and emerging countries. The negotiating documents are still not publically available and the drafts of the agreement were only made public following massive pressure by the European Parliament.
For all these reasons, the Greens in the European Parliament have fought against ACTA for the last two years. We commissioned two studies examining ACTA's consequences for fundamental rights and access to medicines, which proved the great problems and risks the agreement would entail (see links to the studies below).
After the signing of ACTA, it is now up to the European Parliament to ratify, or not, the agreement. Without Parliament's approval, the agreement cannot enter into force. The decisive vote will take place on July 4th.
My political group, the Greens/EFA, will vote against ACTA. However, it is important to put public pressure in particular on the largest group in the European Parliament, the conservative European People's Party (EPP), which has so far supported ACTA.
You can find more information about ACTA and our opposition to it by following the links at the end of this e-mail.
Best regards,
Franziska Brantner

Seven Ways To Pack Before Moving, Moving Norfolk Virginia
7 Best Ways to Pack before Moving
Packing is the most important yet one of the most difficult things to get right when you're moving. Most people pack their belongings themselves while others prefer to hire a professional moving company to pack for them. Perhaps that's because not only will they not have to deal with what may seem to be an overwhelming venture, but this also makes sure that their insurance policy will be honored in case some items are lost.
The hardest part of packing is when you begin to pack. It may look overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be. To make it easy and efficient start in one room and pack everything there before moving on to the next room. Before packing, you first have to think about what things you should take with you to the new house and what should be left. Begin with one room and check the items in that room to spot the items that you rarely use. Find clothes that don't fit you any longer or kitchen containers that do not have tops. Do not waste the space in the boxes by taking these along with you. Give them away or just discard them.
Ways to Pack before Moving
• Plan Well
Planning is essential when packing your belongings whether you have friends helping you or you are planning to pack on your own household goods. You would want everyone to be on the same page and know what things need to be packed, what needs to be thrown away, how it is to be packed etc. If you have this information ready with you and if you share it with everyone else, it would be easier for everyone to help. Start with the things that you would not need to use on a regular basis. Pack your CDs, keepsakes, picture frames and books to begin with.
• Packing Checklist
The first things you'll need are a packing book and packing materials. A packing book makes it much easier to unpack after your possessions are delivered because you will label every box you pack with a letter and a number and write a brief description of the contents in the book next to the same letter and number. This way the movers will be able to put the boxes in the apropos rooms, and you will know where to go for what when you unpack. If you want to make even easier get colored stickers and also color code the boxes.
• Moving Boxes
Buy strong boxes in different sizes. Some moving boxes are designed specifically designed to hold books. You'll be able to pack enough books in each box so that one person can carry it. All of your boxes should be fully packed because they will be stacked one upon another and will need to be structurally strong enough to support the weight above them. This precludes recycling old moving boxes because cardboard deteriorates. And if you're thinking about filling up trash bags - well, trash that thought. They rip easily and can cause you more grief than the money you could save. You'll want to put the heavier things on the bottom of your moving boxes. Wrap most of your items, especially your fragile items, in either packing paper or bubble wrap.
• Get a Team
Getting a team is really helpful because the team will help you with the packing. Ask a few family members and friends to help. Provide refreshing drinks and lunch to all, have nice music playing, and it would certainly turn out to be an enjoyable as well as productive time for all. You would find it easier to pack if you have help.
• Labelling
Labeling is very important if you want to keep things organized. You would need to write the name of the room where the box belongs as well as other details on the box. Mention details about the content of the box like coats, shoes, winter clothes, etc. on the moving boxes or if there are fragile items inside the moving boxes.
• Fragile items
When packing fragile items make sure to line the bottom of the moving boxes with bubble wrap, wadded-up or packing paper. Do not forget to write fragile in big, bold letters on the top and sides of boxes that have fragile items in them.
• Moving Furniture
Remember to wrap the legs of all of your furniture to prevent it from being damaged. And, as far as larger appliances are concerned, refer to your owner's manuals and follow their instructions. For example, you'll have to defrost your refrigerator and drain your dishwasher well before the move, so water doesn't leak over everything
Once everything is packed, transported and is being unloaded to your new home, begin with the boxes that you would require first like basic kitchen items, clothes, and toiletries. Remove everything from one box and arrange it before you open another box. Otherwise, you might just end up with the new place scattered with a lot of boxes and belongings which would only confuse you. Even though it might be tiring, getting everything arranged in the new home at the earliest is the best.

Spring Cleaning Before You Move, Norfolk Movers
It is has become a common trend for most families to schedule moving from their old homes to their new residence during spring. For home owners, spring cleaning comes as an opportunity to make their houses free in readiness for new occupancy. To make the homes be more habitable, it is important for the house owners to make sure that cleaning is properly done before new occupant arrive. To better manage the moving process, home owners or tenants need to treat this as a whole project that need maximum attention including assigning monetary resources to make it a success.
Before doing spring cleaning, you need to plan on how you intend to carry out the whole exercise. A key aspect of the whole exercise is to decide who will be responsible for doing the cleaning exercise. Among the options available for this are; hiring Norfolk Va. professional movers or doing the cleaning work on your own or as family. If you choose to seek the services of a Norfolk Virginia moving company, you need to do a thorough background check about the moving company before contracting them. Some of the issues you need to look at may include; their previous work, customer review and most importantly, the cost of doing the cleaning. However, if you choose the family cleaning option, you need to evaluate if you have all the required expertise and resources to do it.
Planning ahead should be your top secret in spring cleaning. Cleaning involves some complex activities that can be better handled by professionals. However, for those doing the cleaning themselves, they need to create a checklist of their cleaning activities. This will help you avoid the risk of becoming exhausted by the cleaning workload.
Spring cleaning exercise involves a number of activities that are important to the success of the whole project. Some of these activities involve removing untidy stuff while organizing your belonging. A number of people have a tendency of developing emotional attachment to their old stuff. It is advisable to for one to be realistic about the stuff they intend to keep. To avoid keeping stuff that you may never use after moving out, just classify them accordingly. For those items that are broken and cannot be repaired or are obsolete, you have to discard them. However, if there are those that can still be used by someone who's not yourself, you need to pack them and give them out as donations. The other category is that of less useful belonging may not be in immediate need. For this category, one requires to look for a relatively affordable storage space where to store these goods for some time until the time you may need them. Lastly, for the belonging that you don't want to donate, store and can still be used by others, you can sell them in your local secondhand shops.
When employing the services of family members, it's important to share the workload among family members before the cleaning day. This is important as it will minimize chances of flopping of the whole cleaning project. One main thing that people should evaluate when moving out is the cost of moving out with their old items versus the cost of selling this these stuff and acquiring new ones on arrival.
When doing spring cleaning, you need to concentrate on areas that are likely to make your spring cleaning project success. Some of the areas to target include those that you hardly touch on your normal daily cleaning. They include walls, windows and ceiling. Ensure your windows become spotless after cleaning. The other important area to visit while cleaning is the book shelves. Here, ensure the books and shelves are dusted. If the house happens to have decorations, ensure they become are clean. Flooring materials like carpets and mats should also be included in the cleaning. To reduce this workload, it's still okay to take your carpets and mats for machine washing. The same should happen to curtains.
Kitchen is the other important area that needs to be worked on. During cleaning, one should ensure that all electrical appliances in the kitchen are cleaned thoroughly and in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. Let experts do this job, where possible. Broken appliances should be fixed before moving out.
The other area that cannot be ignored is your wardrobe section. All the winter clothes need to be organized properly and be stored well in the closet to provide for some space for spring as well as winter clothes. Your bedroom also needs to form a better part of your spring cleaning. You need to remove your duvets, mattress covers and do thorough vacuum cleaning of your mattress.

Not only does the post explains the degree to which music companies are willing to screw up your computer to try to keep you from copying music, but it is also a fascinating account of how one goes about finding and removing software installed maliciously. I find it absurd that companies are legally allowed to install such software when you try to play their CDs. (Via Adam Shostack)

Hot Sauce legend Blair Lazar's hot sauce and snack company was founded in 1989, by the then 19 year old, and funded with a mere $550 in tips earned from his duties tending bar on the Jersey Shore. Since then, Lazar has turned Blair's Sauces & Snacks into a global phenomenon of all things fiery hot. Lazar's recent appearances on CBS This Morning with Charlie Rose, and the always well-attended chili head gathering, The Fiery Food Show in New Mexico, have propelled him to rock star status amongst legions of spicy food aficionados around the world, and made him the go-to guy for extremely hot delights in the specialty food business. And business is good.
Despite the recent economic turndown, Blair's Sauces & Snacks has flourished, leading the pace with its signature product, Death Sauce, in the ultra competitive hot sauce market. According to the Washington Post (based on IBIS World report), hot sauce is one of the 10 fastest growth industries overall in the United States in 2012 and beyond. Says Lazar, "Over the last 23 years, it's been my passion to change the way people taste heat. For the hot sauce industry to perform so well in the face of adversity, speaks volumes to the loyal following and word of mouth chiliheads have towards Blair's Death Sauce and other brands in this unique time."

Can taking an antidepressant diminish menopause symptoms such as hot flashes and night sweats? A study just published in JAMA showed that menopausal women who were given Lexapro had small, but significantly less number of hot flashes per day compared to women given placebos.
Many antidepressants can diminish REM sleep, which is when you're dreaming, and also when your muscles are most relaxed. Mirtazapine, another antidepressant, was shown to lower the AHI in sleep apnea patients by about 50%.
Women who are going through menopause are also going to have more frequent breathing pauses, due to a gradual lowering of progesterone levels. Progesterone is a powerful upper airway muscle dilator or stimulant. So if you lower this hormone, you'll have more frequent breathing pauses, which will cause you to wake up all of a sudden, which can be a surprise to your nervous system.
It's also been shown that many of the symptoms of menopause, including hot flashes and night sweats, are autonomic nervous system reactions (vasomotor symptoms) that can occur whenever your nervous system is shocked or in a state of major imbalance. I described young men having hot flashes and night sweats, mainly due to slowly progressing obstructive sleep apnea during rapid weight gain. These nervous system reactions can also occur during the daytime. Whenever your nervous system is en garde or edgy, it's going to over-react to any form of stimulus. I vaguely remember reading another study what showed that women don't wake up from hot flashes themsleves, but rather from breathing pauses. This is similar to why people get up to urinate at night (from breathing pauses).
Since even Lexapro can lower REM sleep qualtity, it's not surprising that taking this drug can also lower the rate of hot flashes. If you have obstructive sleep apnea, do you suffer from hot flashes or night sweats?

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 6 (UPI) -- A book by U.S. Orthodox Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, "Kosher Jesus," focusing on Jesus' Jewishness, is heresy, some Jewish critics say.
"Kosher Jesus" focuses on a man who faced up to the Romans and paid the ultimate cost. The tome depicts Jesus as a hero but, in keeping with Jewish belief, does not accept the principle of resurrection or of Jesus as the Christ.
What it does do is emphasize Boteach's conviction that the New Testament intentionally deflected blame for the crucifixion from the ruling Romans unfairly onto the shoulders of the Jews, the Los Angeles Times reported.
Boteach, a former spiritual adviser to Michael Jackson and author of "Kosher Sex" and "Dating Secrets of the 10 Commandments," is no stranger to controversy. He's been criticized by members of Chabad and others within Orthodox Judaism who claim he exploits controversy to boost book sales, the Times said Sunday.
One Orthodox rabbi said the book is heretical.
"Boteach's latest book is apikorsus and must be treated as such," Rabbi Yitzchok Wolf of Chicago said Jan. 10, using a Hebrew word that roughly translates as heresy. Wolf said he had "utter contempt" for the idea of the book: He had only read its title.
Rabbi Jacob Immanuel Schochet wrote on an Orthodox Jewish Web site saying, based on his interpretation of Jewish law, the book "poses a tremendous risk to the Jewish community." He also said it was "forbidden for anyone to buy or read this book, or give its author a platform in any way, shape or form to discuss this topic."
The Times said Boteach was furious when he responded.
"We in the Jewish community have a choice. We can either, as has happened for 2,000 years, allow the Christian community to teach us about the Christian Christ, or we can take the initiative and the responsibility of teaching the Christian community about the Jewish Jesus. He was a Jew, after all," Boteach said.

Pett Level
The sea was flat calm but apart from Great Crested Grebe there was little on it. A few Red-throated Diver passed west and two small groups of Brent Geese passed eastwards. On the levels themselves the four Pink-footed Geese were still present, as was the Bar-headed Goose. A Peregrine kept putting everything into the air and at least two Ruff were still present.

On this rare Sunday morning, I find the children all still asleep and some things running through my mind.
- I must remind myself that I did not get my tonsils removed, thus negating the need for mass consumptions of ice cream(note the rounded hindquarters in the above picture).
- I'm reading a wonderful book by Jeanne Birdsall that is about a family with 4 daughters who live the most poetic life. If you are looking for a couple books that will just make your heart warm, read the Penderwick books.
- I feel like baking today. Maybe chocolate chip pumpkin bread for the neighbors.
- The house has been very quiet and devoid of bickering between the two eldest siblings. Ty has continued to voice his general distaste for life, but Ash and Briggs must find it too painful to be worth their while. Thank you Dr. Malotte.
- I think we will take the kids out for a drive tonight to see the lights. I don't want to get too stir crazy with them.
- Lately I've been thinking about my leanings towards unique names. Many people have asked me why I chose names like Ashlynn, Briggs and Tennyson. I've always explained that in my family, we are very fond of unique names. While Kate is pretty average now, it was not 30 years ago when my parents chose that name for me (at least "Kate" by itself, not Katherine or Katie). I've always liked my name and thought it sounded very sophisticated when I was young. My older sister's name is Annessa Solange, which I think is beautiful. It was always an option for me when naming my children. My father, Ivo Lynn, comes from a large family full of unique names. My grandparents were named Ivo and Neola and their six children are named Kay, Colleen, Monya, Laile, Larry, and Ivo Lynn. Those children, in turn, have a plethora of children with unique names as well. I'm sure my penchant come as a shock to my husbands family. I'm sorry Larry, Caroline, Brian, Lisa and Mark.

The Sunset Sea is the great, unexplored ocean lying to the west of Westeros. Numerous explorers have sailed into the Sunset Sea searching for new lands, but save a few small islands located several weeks' travel west of the Iron Islands, nothing has been found, or at least no explorers have returned home alive to talk about it. Following the Battle of King's Landing, Arya Stark sails west to discover what lies beyond the Sunset Sea.
In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, the Sunset Sea is considered vast and uncrossable, though some ironborn claim to have found more substantial land in the far west. These claims are usually disbelieved.
The most famous explorer of the Sunset Sea was King Brandon Stark (the unknown number of his line), who sailed west with the most of the Northern fleet to find new lands and was never seen again. His son, Brandon the Burner, burned the remaining ships in grief and fury. The North has had no significant strength at sea since this time.

USA Compression Partners and Energy Transfer Complete Previously Announced Transactions
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20180402005943/en/
In addition to the above transactions, ETE completed its acquisition of
USAC's general partner and approximately 12.5 million USAC common units
CDM currently owns and operates approximately 1.6 million horsepower of natural gas compression and is focused primarily on large horsepower applications. The acquisition of CDM is expected to provide significant benefits for USAC unitholders as the combined business will have increased geographic coverage and will be one of the leading domestic compression providers. The acquisition further expands USAC's geographic presence into regions where USAC was previously underrepresented and results in USAC having broad coverage across U.S. regions. As part of its overall service offerings, CDM also provides a full range of gas treating and emissions testing services. CDM's treating activities are complementary to USAC's growing station services offerings, in which USAC provides turnkey gas handling solutions for customers. With over 70% of horsepower greater than 1,000 horsepower and an average unit size of approximately 700 horsepower, the CDM fleet has an average age of approximately 7 years and a current operating utilization rate of over 90%. On a pro forma combined basis, USAC owns and operates a compression fleet of approximately 3.4 million horsepower.
The transaction is expected to strengthen ETP's balance sheet by allowing ETP to use the cash proceeds from the transactions to reduce leverage.

The Need for Restaurant Uniforms
Several research has affirmed that the restaurant' staffs' clothing plays a gigantic role in affecting and influencing a customer's critical impact in the way a client understands, views and thinks about your restaurant.
A fresh uniform is required no matter what nature of profession you may be in, be it a Personalized Apron, a cook's outfit, a nurse's uniform, or even the getup of a culinary specialist that would be quite different from the rest of the kitchen staff. Whether you are in an office garb, a school uniform, or simply wearing the attendant's apron, the way you look is the very first thing that people perceive about you and would dictate how they would relate to you.
Owning and managing a restaurant is one of the most difficult business ventures that a person can engage in. Between getting the menus ready down to planning and procuring the right supplies for the eats of the day, other important staff such as attending to the needs of the staff or ensuring that they are ready for the day, may wind up at the very base of your list of to-dos. Indeed, marketing and promotion can come a long way in the success of your restaurant - and you can easily reinforce that thought through the attire that you require your staff to wear, which sometimes ends up as the focus of clients whether you admit it or not. First and foremost, technological innovations in the world of textile and garments is relatively easy to attain, there are manufacturers and tailors who are the expert when it comes to making uniforms be it a womens black vest or Custom Aprons with
money pouch
that you need, they have you covered.
It is important that you understand how customer perception can affect the direction and operation of your eatery - hence it is a must that you require outfits that are immediately well-received and essentially conveys the right impressions to them. A firm, marked look will make an impression of collaboration amongst your staff and likewise convey a sense of oneness and purpose to customers.
There are also other
Customized Aprons
requirements that must be present when it comes to the attire of those who are working in the restaurant industry, this includes the need for breathable cotton material to guarantee agreeable working conditions especially in the kitchen, the server aprons must have strategically placed pockets and extra circles to keep kitchen fundamentals and different necessities, an extra cloth kept handy yet out of sight since it is strategically included in the uniform, among others.

Diplomats from Georgia and Russia are meeting in Geneva for talks on security and refugee issues linked to their military conflict over the Georgian breakaway territories of South Ossetia and Abkhazia.
Representatives of the European Union and the United States also are attending the United Nations-sponsored talks.
An EU spokesman says the format of the talks is the same as last month, when representatives from the pro-Russian breakaway territories attended informal discussions.
Officials from South Ossetia and Abkhazia also are attending Wednesday's eight-party talks, along with representatives from the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe.
Russian forces swept into Georgia August 7, following a Georgian military push to regain control of South Ossetia. Moscow subsequently recognized South Ossetia and Abkhazia as independent countries, despite strong opposition from Western governments.
In a statement today, the U.S. State Department said American officials are not planning to meet with a group of visiting South Ossetian activists. It noted that the group is attending a conference at a university in the Washington area that could include State Department officials among participants. But it said no separate meeting is planned.
The group, led by activist Lira Tskhovrebova, is in Washington seeking to bring attention to human rights issues in the breakaway territories, and what South Ossetian officials describe as pre-war provocations by Georgia that led to the conflict. A meeting last week between the activists and U.S. officials was canceled, after Georgian accusations that Tskhovrebova had direct links to Russian security agents.

It took a while, but the coin finally dropped. Even the ultra-conservative NATO has realized that the battle for hearts and minds is in the social media. The Toronto Star reports that NATO is making a sharp policy shift and declassifying video long considered too risky to make public and preparing to put it on YouTube.
Addressing a Copenhagen gathering of insider delegates, including a sizeable contingent from Canada, Secretary General Jaap de Hoop Scheffer said NATO is "frankly in the Stone Age" when it comes to many aspects of public diplomacy.
"When there is an incident in Afghanistan, the Taliban are quick to say there have been high numbers of civilian casualties. The wires pick it up, then the TV stations, then the Web," Scheffer said. But by the time NATO has investigated, checked the results and passed the information through its approval system, "our response comes days later – if we are lucky. By that time, we have totally lost the media battle."
The issues will be picked up again in a meeting next month in the Netherlands.
"The Taliban is making videos every day and NATO is not on TV," Senior NATO spokesperson James Appathurai told the Star. "The Taliban has websites. We don't have websites, certainly not an effective Afghan website.
Sources say NATO will put new emphasis on Web videos, including the declassification of images previously thought too sensitive to publicize, and place a premium on fleet-footed communication, possibly using rapid-reaction teams to mobilize when Taliban-conceived falsehoods hit the press.
"This is a turning point because now there is consensus that NATO needs to do much, much better at communication, first and foremost with video," said Appathurai.
"We need to be on YouTube."

Kaesong Koryo Insam
Insam (ginseng) was used from old times in Korea. Wild insam cultivated in Koryo dynasty was called insam, distinctive from sansam (wild insam). It was cultivated in several areas but the soil, water and weather conditions of Kaesong were most favourable, thus it had biggest and most efficacious insam. Located in the middle of Korea, Kaesong was the capital of Koryo, first unified state of Korea in the midde ages, existed for about 500 years. Now it sits on the Military Demarcation Line, implying tragic division of the nation. Kaesong Koryo Insam has been wide known. It does wonders for exciting the central nervous system, energy and fatigue. It functions anti-radioactivity and anti-cancer, so its medical sphere has been wider than before. Scientific studies have proven that Kaesong Ginseng contains large amounts of healthy ginsenosides.
Lyrurus Tetrix
The black grouse (also known as 'blackgame') is a member of the grouse family Tetraonidae. Roughly the size of a domestic hen, the male, or 'blackcock', has black plumage with a bluish sheen. He has white wing-bars, which are only visible in flight, white under-tail coverts, and a distinctive lyre-shaped tail. The female has grey-brown plumage, (providing excellent camouflage when nesting on the ground) with pale wing bars, and her tail has a slight notch at the end. Both sexes have a red patch called a 'wattle' above each eye. Among its calls are a rapid cackling and a harsh hissing sound. The black grouse is found throughout northern Eurasia, the most southerly populations are found in Kyrgyzstan and North Korea.

Taking The Long Term View
And it won't stop there. The Center installed a much-needed elevator, a capital project of considerable effort and cost, so that all floors of the building are accessible to the elderly and those with physical challenges.
And included in that scenario is the amazing East River waterfront neighborhood of Long Island City, just one short stop on the #7 subway line from Grand Central Station, where the New York Irish Center is fortunate to have landed. With its thriving business and artistic sectors, and its vibrant nightlife, it has become one of the most attractive spots in the city in which to live.
Beyond today, the sky is literally the limit for the New York Irish Center. With one of the best rooftop views of the Manhattan skyline in the region, in the fullness of time there will surely be calls to build further on upward.
The New York Irish Center is in it to stay!

Thank you for making calls to your Representatives in support of budget amendments to support DCR, the state agency that manages the Blue Hills and all our state parks. You're calls paid off!
We are grateful to all the legislators who sponsored and co-sponsored these amendments, including Rep Bruce Ayers, Rep William Galvin, Rep Walter Timilty and Rep Claire Cronin. Thanks to your calls, a number of Representatives signed on as co-sponsors to the amendment. The approximate current number of co-sponsors are:
DCR Seasonal Staff (34)
DCR Parks & Rec (29)
DEP Admin (15)
THANK YOU for reaching out to your representatives! Legislators can still sign on as co-sponsors after today until the budget is debated in late April, but it was necessary to do a big push for today, because co-sponsors who signed on before today's deadline will have their names on the amendment when the amendments are published online next week. And the more co-sponsors there are for a given amendment, the more support it indicates.
Thanks to the Environmental League of Massachusetts for working with us and other environmental groups throughout the state to make sure these agencies have adequate funds. See the action alert for background on the amendments.

Finnish-based mobile technology giant Nokia and researchers at Queen Mary University of London are dreaming up a way to turn ambient noise into a power source for the cellphones of tomorrow. In a press release published Friday, the University describes how its team developed the experimental technology after observing performance boots in solar cells exposed to pulsing pop and rock music.
The key to converting sound into electricity, QMUL and Nokia found, is a particular application of zinc oxide — a water soluble, inorganic compound commonly used in plastics, ceramics and glass. Fibers coated in zinc oxide are particularly piezoelectric in nature, creating voltage when pressure is applied.
The team has manufactured a version of zinc oxide in the form of "nanorods" that can be applied to the surfaces of other materials. When exposed to the physical, vibrational energy that produces sound, the nanorods expand and contract, and that movement is converted into electricity. Researchers were able to create five volts of electricity, more than enough to charge a smartphone.
