Good-for-You Food
Kristin Cavallari has come a long way from the party girl she portrayed on MTV's Laguna Beach. She swapped the drama of Hollywood for a quieter life in Chicago; she traded reality TV for a stable, happy family; and she's choosing a healthy, nutritious diet over the cocktails of her MTV days. The latter is especially true during her pregnancy. Here, Kristin tells us what she eats to stay healthy as a soon-to-be mother of two.
Kristin starts her day with Arrowhead Mills Quinoa Rice & Shine hot cereal—a good choice, considering it's made with healthy whole grains and no added...junk. Her little one, Camden, likes it, too. No sugar-bomb breakfasts at the Cutler house!

…Forest School
It's a brilliant time to explore the woods, as the natural world bursts into life.
Despite the weather at the moment Year 4 visit 'Whispery Wood' in Ysgol Coedwig (Forest School) every Friday afternoon.
On our first visit the children discovered a large nest on the ground at the side of the log cabin. We took photographs and then used the internet to find out what type of nest it was. We found out that it was made by a hedgehog and that they build their nests to hibernate. The children have named the hedgehog 'Pigog' which is Welsh for spikey. The children have also discovered frogs in water filled pots under the bushes.
During our visits the children will be looking for Mother Nature's first clues that spring is on the way. They will be making nests and bird feeders, identifying birds, trees and plants and also learning how to tie knots.
Mr Cullen has put up three nesting boxes this term (made by the children in Year 4 last year) so fingers crossed we may have some more visitors soon. Thankyou Mr Cullen.
Year Four's interpretation of Mother Nature.

Greetings In the Name of the Lord:
1 Corinthians 14:2-4 (NLT)
2 For if you have the ability to speak in tongues, you will be talking only to God, since people won't be able to understand you. You will be speaking by the power of the Spirit, but it will all be mysterious. 3 But one who prophesies strengthens others, encourages them, and comforts them.
4 A person who speaks in tongues is strengthened personally, but one who speaks a word of prophecy strengthens the entire church.
Paul's has previously expressed that love should be our prime objective, but that we should also seek after and long for spiritual gifts. Now he wants us to understand what our priority should be, and that is to strengthen and encourage others. His point here is that tongues edifies the individual, but prophesy edifies the body of Christ, the entire church. He clearly tells us that tongues are useful to the individual because it edifies, strengthen and encourages them. Some would have us believe that in doing so he belittling or making light of the gift of tongues, and nothing could be farther from the truth. He is in no way saying that speaking in tongues is self-centered and should be avoided. On the contrary, he is saying that they have their place, but that they are most useful in private prayer and praise. Anyone who thinks that he is speaking against the use of tongues needs to read the rest of the chapter (Fee, God's Empowering Presence, 219). However, what Paul is saying is that tongues is more beneficial for the entire church because it edifies and encourages everyone present and not just the speaker. In fact, Paul uses three words to express the usefulness of prophecy: strengthen, encourage, and comfort. All three words talk about the effect that they have on others. In a time of great discouragement in our society these are all things that are desperately needed. Who doesn't need to be strengthened, encouraged, and comforted? Yet so little of it is seen in church these days. Why? We need it more than ever, but see it happening less and less. Part of the reason maybe that it has been discouraged because we have bought into the notion that this scares people away from the church. Really? Know anybody that doesn't need an encouraging word from God? Another reason maybe that some say it is no longer available to the church. Well, we have already talked about that one, and until Jesus comes we will need strength, encouragement, and comfort. Another reason maybe that people are simple afraid to step out in faith and deliver a message in front of others. Yet, what a privilege it is to be used by God to help someone else. Let's begin to pray, seek God, and say "here I am Lord, use me!"
In Christ,
Pastor Mark

In modern WordPress themes, theme developers are serving the page requests via ajax. Both paginated blog page and single posts (might be in full or partial) are served. Though WordPress is very fast if properly tuned, but it's meaningless to pull the same data from WordPress database again and again unless there is any change. Which means, you can safely cache such ajax requests and reduce loads on your database by adding a few lines of extra code in your theme's functions.php. In this article, we will learn how to take advantage of such caching in WordPress
Step 1: Register Ajax callback for serving paginated blog pages
Here is a typical codeblock that can serve paginated blog pages via ajax. There is no caching yet
[sourcecode language="php"]
add_action("wp_ajax_blog", "get_blog");
add_action("wp_ajax_nopriv_blog", "get_blog");
function get_blog(){
global $post;
$page = $_REQUEST['page'];
if(!$page) $page=1;
$pp = get_option("posts_per_page");
$offset = ($page*1-1)*$pp;
$args = array(
$posts = get_posts($args); //get the posts
foreach($posts as $post){
setup_postdata( $post );
Now if you go to the url "http://your_blog_url/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?page=1 " you can see the latest posts, change the page value to 2,3,4 and so on to see previous posts. Each posts in the loop are rendered via get_templates(). Please note how we used the get_post_format() function in the loop to serve different templates based on post formats.
So what is bad in this code? Nothing, yet Everything! If 100 users are visiting your blog and they are visiting blog pages, each and every time these posts are pulled from database. Each and everytime they are pulling the very same data until you had edited any post, or created a new post. So why this extra load should go to DB? lets minimize it 🙂
Step 2: Add caching layer
here is a revised format of the code block above, but now with caching.
[sourcecode language="php"]
add_action("wp_ajax_blog", "get_blog");
add_action("wp_ajax_nopriv_blog", "get_blog");
function get_blog(){
global $post;
$page = $_REQUEST['page'];
if(!$page) $page=1;
/** supply from cache **/
$page_from_cache = get_option( "artpress_page{$page}", 0 );
/** cache end **/
$pp = get_option("posts_per_page");
$offset = ($page*1-1)*$pp;
$args = array(
$posts = get_posts($args);
foreach($posts as $post){
setup_postdata( $post );
$new_cache = ob_get_flush();
/** save the cache **/
update_option( "artpress_page{$page}",$new_cache);
/** end cache **/
In the code above, we first checked the page number. Then, checked in the wordpress options table if there is a cache present with a key named "artpress_page". Now, for the first time it wont be there. So we just pull the records from the database as usually and then using the output buffering functions we capture the output, instead of pushing instantly to the browser. And then we update the options table with this output. So next time when same page will be requested, database wont be hit. Ok, database will be hit (this options table data is coming from the db) but you can see it wont touch the posts table again, and avoid running expensive queries (which includes many joins) in that table. It also saves CPU a bit.
Step 3: Invalidate cache whenever a post is edited, or created
This is an important step. We need to flush the cache whenever a new post or page is created to make sure our blog shows the up to date data.
[sourcecode language="php"]
function invalidate_cache(){
$counts = wp_count_posts();
$total_published_posts = $counts->publish;
$posts_per_page = get_option( "posts_per_page");
$total_page = ceil($total_published_posts/$posts_per_page);
delete_option( "artpress_page{$i}" );
Now, we are in good shape. Our ajax requests are served from cache and properly purges whenever necessary. You can serve your single post same way.
If you want to serve single posts from the cache, one thing you need to keep in mind is that you are loading up an important table "options" with a lot of data. So you can change the code above and store the cache in filesystem instead of options table. You should have write permission in the uploads directory by default. So that wont be tough at all.
I hope you enjoyed this article 🙂

Finance chief lays out doomsday scenario
Homeowners could face 'worst-case' property tax hike
Toronto's chief financial officer warns of 20% tax hike
Even if this happens, Toronto would still have rates lower than its neighbours. Look at the chart linked to in the previous post. Even with a 20% increase Toronto's tax rate would be less than Mississauga's and Vaughan's. In fact Toronto would go from having the lowest rate to the third lowest rate.

Events of Windows Controls
An application is made of various objects or controls. During the lifetime of an application, its controls regularly send messages to the operating system to do something on their behalf. These messages are similar to human messages and must be processed appropriately. Since most of the time more than one application is running on the computer, the controls of such an application also send messages to the operating system. As the operating system is constantly asked to perform these assignments, because there can be so many requests presented unpredictably, the operating system leaves it up to the controls to specify what they want, when they want it, and what behavior or result they expect. These scenarios work by the controls sending events.
Events in the .NET Framework are implements through the concepts of delegates and events as reviewed above. The most common events have already been created for the objects of the .NET Framework controls so much that you will hardly need to define new events, at least not in the beginning of your GUI programming adventure. Most of what you will do consists of implementing the desired behavior when a particular event fires. To start, you should know what events are available, when they are needed, how they work, and what they produce.
To process a message, it (the message) must provide at least two pieces of information: What caused the message and what type of message is it? Both values are passed as the arguments to the event. Since all controls used in the .NET Framework are based on the object class, the first argument must be an object type and represents the control that sent the message.
As mentioned already, each control sends its own messages when necessary. Based on this, some messages are unique to some controls according to their roles. Some other messages are common to various controls, as they tend to provide similar actions. To manage such various configurations, the .NET Framework considers the messages in two broad categories.
As it happens, some messages do not require much information to be performed. For example, suppose your heart sends a message to the arm and states, "Raise your hand". In this case, suppose everything is alright, the arm does not ask, "how do I raise my hand?". It simply does. This type of message would be sent without much detailed information. This type of message is carried by an EventArgs argument passed as the second parameter of the event.
Consider another message where the arm carries some water and says to the mouth, "Swallow the following water". The mouth would need the water that needs to be swallowed. Therefore, the message must be accompanied by additional information. Consider one more message where the heart says to the tongue, "Taste the following food but do not swallow it." In order to process this message, the tongue would need the food and something to indicate that the food must not be swallowed. In this case, the message must be accompanied by detailed pieces of information.
When a message must carry additional information, the control that sent the message specifies that information by the name of the second argument. Because there are various types of messages like that, there are also different types of classes used to carry such messages. We will introduce each class when appropriate.
While an application is opening on the screen or it needs to be shown, the operating system must display its controls. To do this, the controls colors and other visual aspects must be retrieved and restored. This is done by painting the control. If the form that hosts the controls was hidden somewhere such as behind another window or was minimized, when it comes up, the operating system needs to paint it (again).
When a control gets painted, it fires the Paint() event. The syntax of the Paint() event is:
public event PaintEventHandler Paint;
This event is carried by a PaintEventHandler delegate declared as follows:
public delegate void PaintEventHandler(object sender, PaintEventArgs e);
The PaintEventArgs parameter provides information about the area to be painted and the graphics object to paint.
When a keyboard key is pressed, a message called KeyDown is sent. KeyDown is a KeyEventArgs type interpreted through the KeyEventHandler class. This event is defined as follows:
private void Control_KeyDown(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs e) { }
This event is carried by the KeyEventArgs class defined in the System.Windows.Forms namespace. When you initiate this event, its KeyEventArgs argument provides as much information as possible to implement an appropriate behavior.
As opposed to the key down message that is sent when a key is down, the KeyUp message is sent when the user releases the key. The event is initiated as follows:
private void Control_KeyUp(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs e) { }
Like KeyDown, KeyUp is a KeyEventArgs type.
When the user presses a key, the KeyPress message is sent. Unlike the other two keyboard messages, the key pressed for this event should (must) be a character key. The event is initiated as follows:
private void Control_KeyPress(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs e) { }
The KeyPress event is carried by a KeyPressEventArgs type. The Handled property identifies whether this event was handled. The KeyChar property identifies the key that was pressed. It must be a letter or a recognizable symbol. Lowercase alphabetic characters, digits, and the lower base characters such as ; , ' [ ] - = / are recognized as they are. For an uppercase letter or an upper base symbol, the user must press Shift + the key. The character would be identified as one entity. This means that the symbol % typed with Shift + 5 is considered as one character.
The mouse is another object that is attached to the computer allowing the user to interact with the machine. The mouse and the keyboard can each accomplish some tasks that are not normally available on the other
or both can accomplish some tasks the same way.
The mouse is used to select a point or position on the screen. Once the user has located an item, which could also be an empty space, a letter or a word, he or she would position the mouse pointer on it.
To actually use the mouse, the user would press either the left, the middle (if any), or the right button. If the user presses the left button once, this action is called Click. If the user presses the right mouse button, the action is referred to as Right-Click. If the user presses the left button twice and very fast, the action is called Double-Click.
If the mouse is equipped with a wheel, the user can position the mouse pointer somewhere on the screen and roll the wheel. This usually causes the document or page to scroll up or down, slow or fast, depending on how it was configured.
Before using a control using the mouse, the user must first position the mouse on it. When this happens, the control fires a MouseEnter event. This event is initiated as follows:
private void Control_MouseEnter(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { }
This event is carried by an EventArgs argument but doesn't provide much information, only to let you know that the mouse was positioned on a control.
Whenever the mouse is being moved on top of a control, a mouse event is sent. This event is called MouseMove and is of type MouseEventArgs. It is initiated as follows:
private void Control_MouseMove(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs e) { }
To implement this event, a MouseEventArgs argument is passed to the MouseEventHandler event implementer. The MouseEventArgs argument provides the necessary information about the event such as what button was clicked, how many times the button was clicked, and the location of the mouse.
If the user positions the mouse on a control and hovers over it, a MouseHover event is fired. This event is initiated as follows:
private void Control_MouseHover(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { }
This event is carried by an EventArgs argument that doesn't provide further information than the mouse is hovering over the control.
private void Control_MouseDown(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs e) { }
Like the other above mouse move event, the MouseDown event is carried by a MouseEventArgs argument.
After pressing a mouse button, the user usually releases it. While the button is being released, a button-up message is sent and it depends on the button, left or right, that was down. The event produced is MouseUp and it is initiated as follows:
private void Control_MouseUp(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs e) { }
Like the MouseDown message, the MouseUp event is of type MouseEventArgs which is passed to the MouseEventHandler for processing.
When the user moves the mouse pointer away from a control, the control fires a MouseLeave event. This event is initiated as follows:
private void Form1_MouseLeave(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { }
It is possible, but unlikely, that none of the available events featured in the controls of the .NET Framework suits your scenario. If this happens, you can implement your own event. To do this, you should first consult the Win32 documentation to identify the type of message you want to send.
There are two main techniques you can use to create or send a message that is not available in a control. You may also want to provide your own implementation of a message.
In order to send a customized version of a Windows message from your control, you must first be familiar with the message. A message in the .NET Framework is based on the Message structure that is defined as follows:
public struct Message { public IntPtr HWnd {get; set;} public IntPtr LParam {get; set;} public int Msg {get; set;} public IntPtr Result {get; set;} public IntPtr WParam {get; set;} public static Message Create(IntPtr hWnd, int msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam); public override bool Equals(object o); public override int GetHashCode(); public object GetLParam(Type cls); public override string ToString(); }
One of the properties of this structure is Msg. This property holds a constant integer that is the message to send. The constant properties of messages are defined in the Win32 library. To send a message, you can declare a variable of type Message and define it. Once the variable is ready, you can pass it to the DefWndProc() method. Its syntax is:
protected virtual void DefWndProc(ref Message m);
To know the various messages available, you can consult the Win32 documentation but you need a way to get the constant value of that message. Imagine you want to send a message to close a form when the user clicks a certain button named Button1. If you have Microsoft Visual Studio (any version) installed in your computer, you can open the Drive:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Include\WINUSER.H file. In this file, the WM_CLOSE message that carries a close action is defined with the hexadecimal constant 0x0010
You can then define a constant integer in your code and initialize it with this same value.
To process a Windows message that is not available for a control you want to use in your application, you can implement its WndProc() method. Its syntax is:
protected virtual void WndProc(ref Message m);
In order to use this method, you must override it in your own class. Once again, you must know the message you want to send. This can be done by consulting the Win32 documentation.

September, 2003
Veteran British dance artist Laurie Booth's new solo Ice/Dreams/Fire can lay claim to one of the festival's most original settings. In the hour-long piece, premiered at last May's Brighton Festival, Booth shares space with an elaborate yet simple mobile of ice sculptures devised by the talented young Brighton-based (as is Booth) visual artist Thomas Richards.
Booth spotted Richards' work at an exhibition. 'I liked Tom's way of using real time both in performance and in the art object itself.' Asked for a description of the stage environment, the dancer replies, 'White shirts, dyed red and jammed into tupperware boxes. They're frozen and come out as red cubes which are then hung up on black wire. What you get is a spiral of these suspended red blocks, with metal vats underneath to catch the drips as they thaw. Some of the vats have contact mics attached, to catch the sound which is fed into [composer] Nick Rothwell's digital console. It's very interactive, with an organic, visceral feel. Over the period of an hour you see these frozen blocks, they're like huge slabs of meat, changing shape, expanding almost imperceptibly.' How does Booth avoid being upstaged by this unusual collection of objects? 'I have to move in a manner which creates focus.' Simple answer and, for this exceptionally magnetic performer, maybe not so hard to achieve. Booth has been on the scene for more than a quarter-century, compiling a body of work sprung directly from his strong, wiry frame and a style based on having no single style. 'I haven't defined myself in relationship to a particular technique,' he says. 'I made it a point to research and develop my own movement language and vocabulary.' Among influences he mentions Buster Keaton (a nice surprise), martial arts, ballet, contact improvisation, release technique and gyrotonics.
The last is important to Booth, who has become an instructor in this American body training system. 'Its closest living relative is Pilates. As well as its use in training, it has a tremendous rehabilitative function.' Increasingly, says Booth, people were making parallels to his dance practice and gyrotonics. And, as he discovered, 'It's dovetailed very nicely with what I do.'
Aside from the aesthetic link, Booth has taken up gyrotonics as 'a way of establishing another model of economic and artistic survival, so I can maintain a certain level of independence. I've always been an independent artist. I don't live or create within an institution.' He was therefore free a few years ago to elect to drop out of the UK dance circuit. 'I'd kind of decided to remove myself from dance because I felt I wasn't getting any kind of major support for the work I was doing. If you don't fit into a dance agency programme, or if you're not part of a funding structure, you become marginalised.'
It was Nigel Hinds, the Associate Artistic Director of Brighton Ferstival, who lured Booth back into performing. Hinds offered to do all the administration and funding, Booth says, 'at which point it seemed churlish to refuse.' He has no regrets. 'Having moved away from dance for two or three years, it was far more enjoyable to make this new piece. I didn't feel like I had to do it. You can get on a bit of a conveyor belt in dance: another year, another project. It's very pleasurable not to have this one thing be the be-all and end-all of your life.' Ice/Dreams/Fire nevertheless has a personal resonance for Booth, in that it 'revolves around an incident, or story, that I've been thinking about for a long time.' It seems that, last century, Soviet scientists found bodies which had lain frozen in the Siberian tundra for thousands of years. 'Some were covered in tattoos,' Booth says. 'I have some on my own body. They're wonderfully hybrid animal forms: eagles, horses, goats, leopards. They're abstract as well, with a vibrant, dynamic sense of movement.' These totemic creatures became Booth's kinetic springboard, his mission to 'bring them to life and let them run' through his own flesh and bone.
According to its maker, the performance is structured in three phases (at first dark, hidden yet revealing; elegant, almost classical in the middle; then faster, dynamic and raw before the close), each with its own qualities of motion and light (designed by the redoubtable Michael Mannion). For Booth the thawing of the shirts and the background story of a frozen ancestor unite, creating a sense of discovery that can be applied as much to himself as to the primal seeker he embodies onstage. 'It's about revealing an identity which has a number of sources. It seemed like an incredible metaphor for my own process, a look at a movement identity or movement as a life process and a philosophical position.' Booth views Ice/Dreams/Fire as 'a scientific and artistic experiment' and Richards' contribution as 'incredibly elegant. It's so simple, and at same time very sophisticated in terms of how it's behaving. A lot of attention has gone into the detail.' He, Richards and the production team have discovered just how much water and what kind of dye to use, how long to freeze the shirts, how long they take to hang (what was a five hour process has been streamlined to about forty minutes) and how long to thaw given the combined heat of Mannion's lighting and the audience's collective body heat. 'We've had to find the optimum moment in the life cycle of these things when they can be seen by the public.' Adding to the sense of anticipation, Booth says, 'We're going to introduce elements of thawing in other parts of Greenwich Dance Agency.'

- Pets Welcome
- Xmas & New Year
- Special Offers
My husband and I have just returned from a weeks holiday in Charleston a property in Errogie approx 18 miles from Inverness it was our 4th visit and wont be our last a beautiful property in an wonderful setting. The peace tranquility and views cannot be rivaled.
We spent the first week of our honeymoon in Mr and Mrs McPherson lovely cottage and were made to feel very welcome. The peat fire was very cosy and the cottage was very comfortable, spacious, with everything we needed and lot more. Excellent location to explore the island and very handy for Portree. Views were fantastic, would highly recommend staying here as cottage is excellent. Thank you for helping make our first trip to Skye very enjoyable and special.
Glen View
Pine Lodge
Have recently returned from our fourth visit to Pine Lodge. As always, cottage was clean, comfortable, warm and peaceful; John and Sally friendly, helpful but not obtrusive. The view from the cottage is spectacular and the wildlife outside the window kept us entertained: at least 11 species of birds around the feeders, deer at the end of the garden and we were privileged to have 10 visits from a pine marten. Beautiful scenery wherever you go. Have already booked holiday number 5 - can't wait!
Loch Ness Water Mill
Delightful, comfortable cottage in a beautiful setting. Fantasic views from the big picture window in the lounge - the only other houses in sight were on the distant island of Raasay. We loved the peat fire and the peace and quiet! The path to Portree and back around Ben Chracaig add to the delights. Well equipped and cosy.
May 28th- 4th June. Had a great holiday. Charleston was very spacious, welcoming, well equipped and with added extras. Lovely views and walks around the area. The girls enjoyed flying their kites and it was a fantastic place for dogs - especially letting them out in the morning within the enclosed garden area. Would definitely visit again.
Admiral Napier House
Kirklauchline Cottage
Bayside Cottage
Shore Cottage
May 28th to June 2nd 2011 had a great week relaxing with my family I will be using Wilderness Cottages again
Hill Cottage
No TV, no telephone, no mobile signal, no wifi, no neighbours, no traffic. What more could you ask for? We really don't want any more people to know about Hill Cottage because we would like to find a vacant week for a third visit. Sutherland is awesome. Dealings with Wilderness Cottages excellent.
Bothan Beag
Hill Head Croft
This was an ideal property for us. The lay out of the bedrooms was brilliant, as one couple with their children slept upstairs, the the other couple slept downstairs well away from the noisy children!! The cottage is very well presented and spacious. The children and the dog loved the garden. The cottage is in a very good location, approx half way up the Loch Ness, with fantastic walks on the door step. I would give this property 10/10.
Marnie's Croft
Lovely cottage,peace and quiet,fantastic views. Location of the cottage above Urquhart Castle is magnificent. You can just simply chill out and enjoy the scenery or,if you want to be more active, there is lots to do:lovely walks nearby, cruises, horse riding, visit the castle, Culloden etc. We had a magical family holiday with relatives from USA and Canada who were overwhelmed by the beauty of this place.
Admiral Napier House
28th May 2011 Had a lovely week at Rhundunan (despite the weather) the cottage was excellent, well equipped and the views were spectacular. Would definately recommend this cottage.
Hill Head Croft
Hill Head Croft was a very comfortable retreat for our week's holiday and the garden and views were beautiful. There was plenty of space in the cottage for us all and the aga in the spacious kitchen was a godsend! Sadly the weather was diabolical so we weren't able to take advantage of the pretty garden but we had some amazing walks in spite of the weather and the Dores Inn was not too far away for us to enjoy its super atmosphere and wonderful food. This part of Scotland is so beautiful.
Allt a'Mhuilinn
Loch Duich Cottage
Taigh Fiodha
The cabin was very comfortable and well equipped and the Jackson family made us very welcome but were not at all intrusive. The beach at Shandwick Bay is beautiful, within walking distance and usually deserted - perfect for long dog walks. It's a great location to tour the North Highlands which is stunning! Didn't find much in the way of pubs or restaurants to get excited about but there is an excellent fishmonger / butcher / local food supplier in Tain.
Chapel House
Taigh Geal
WOW, from the moment we turned the corner and saw our cabin it was like being in paradise, it was as magical inside as it was out, we didn't want to leave the children all decided that we should buy the cabin and stay there forever, it was so nice to be away from the hustle and bustle of life and look out onto so much beauty the cabin was set out perfectly, we are one hundred percent going back next year
Marnie's Croft
Marnies Croft is one of the best Holiday Cottages we have ever stayed in. I just don't know where we will ever find such views again. It was so quiet and peaceful and had everything we could ever need. Could have stayed there for ever and we will definitely be back. Thank you so much
Tigh A Chreagan
The Bakehouse
Deer View
Fersit Log Cottage
An excellently equipped and stylish cottage in a remote (ish) location. Excellent base for walking. We hope to return to Fersit Log Cottage and do all the hills we didnt do this time around!
Ceol na Mara
We had a very pleasant stay in Ceol na Mara. The cottage is comfortable with a great view and the beach on the doorstep. The kids enjoyed themselves on "our own beach" while we sat in the garden enjoying the view. We are already considering returning next year.
Burnside Cottage of Geddes
Old Net Store
Great stay at Whitestone for a long weekend. The house had all we needed: was in excellent condition, clean, had all the utensils and equipment for our stay, was quiet, and easy to find. Would certainly consider a return visit!
The Coltsfoots
We stayed at the The Coltsfoots the week following Easter and had a wonderful stay. The cottage is lovely and warm, furnished to a high standard and equipped with everything you would ever need. We loved the bottle of wine and carton of milk that waited for us in the fridge, as well as the tea and biscuits on the counter. There is a creek running near the cottage and it is surrounded by woodlands. A short walk to Ft. Augustus makes the location perfect. A 5* place!
The Bakehouse
Temple Mill
Bothan Beag
We agree with all that Mr & Mrs Hatton have written about Wilderness Cottages, Adrannach and the owners of the cottage. In addition to their comments we would also say that the covered back porch was very useful for leaving the dog out while we walked into Portree for the odd evening meal and/or drink. It is possible to walk into Portree in 10-15 minutes via a footpath from the cottage. Very good in terms of being able to drink and not drive!
Old School 10 - Abbey
We stayed at Old School 10 for a week from 25th April to 2nd May 2011 and just did not want to leave. The setting in The Abbey was so peaceful and quiet. The apartment was beautiful and clean, with lovely views right next to the Caledonian Canal and with Loch Ness at the bottom of the 'garden'. If you are looking for peace, tranquility and a comfortable place to stay I would highly recommend the apartment.
Holstein - The Dairy
Chapel House
Burnside Cottage of Geddes
Marnie's Croft
A beautiful cottage with outstanding views - far better than the pictures show. We feel very lucky to have come across Marnie's Croft.

Over 20 local children, youth and adults starred in Mustard last Sunday, a lighthearted, one-act musical about the power of good deeds created by Delta composer Lesley Sutherland for a unique new creative arts-based Sunday school program at St. David's Anglican Church.
Sutherland, a conductor, composer, writer and music teacher who has composed musical scores for film, live theatre and television, including for the popular kids CBC preschool series See the Sea, proposed the idea for the Creation Zone last year.
The Creation Zone welcomes any interested children and youth aged five to 17. The program runs Sundays during the 10 a.m. service and explores themes through drama, music and art projects.
The inaugural production, Mustard, based on the parable of the mustard seed, includes original music by Sutherland, and will play again at All Saints Anglican Church this Sunday at 10 a.m. Next up will be The Star of Bethlehem, a festive evening presenting the Christmas story through beautiful music, lessons, drama and sing-along carols. Set for Sunday, Dec. 13 at 7:30 p.m., it will feature the choirs of St. David's as well as the children and youth of the Creation Zone.
Families are invited to be part of this special evening and are welcome to join in on the fun with the Creation Zone on Sunday mornings or with the Christmas Choir on Thursdays at 7:30 p.m. To learn more, call St. David's at 604-943-4737.

Discovering the limits of what your car is capable of is usually something that occurs by accident rather than design. Public roads are obviously not the place for finding out where the edge is between control and loss of control
Discovering the limits of what your car is capable of is usually something that occurs by accident rather than design. Public roads are obviously not the place for finding out where the edge is between control and loss of control.
However, it is a good thing to discover this edge under safe and supervised conditions. By doing so you become more familiar with your car's limits and how far it can be pressed under circumstances that could mean the difference between having an accident or not.
Discovering the limits of your car and learning how to control it under extreme circumstances is one of the things you learn on the "Creative Car Control" course, which is run by Mick Ryan, a professional driving instructor and the proprietor of one of Sydney's premier driving schools. During the course, participants use their own cars on the course under instruction, so you can gain full control of the vehicle and get the best from it.
There is a good balance between fun and practicality on this course. On the practical side, participants learn what to expect from their car and how to avoid getting in to trouble in the first place. They learn slide and spin control, new braking and steering techniques, threshold braking and obstacle avoidance in a safe environment.
As already mentioned, most drivers only experience what happens when they slide or lose control unintentionally – and often just before having an accident. So this can be somewhat of a hair-raising experience at times, but the course is held at OranPark's large (and often wet) concrete skidpan, so there is plenty of room to spin and slide around safely.
On the fun side, participants also learn the finer points of handbrake turns as well as how to flick their car around in a 'J' turn. It's not something you really need on the road, but it is great fun to be able to learn how to do something that is only ever seen in TV advertisements or movies. The day ends with an "expression session" where pretty much anything goes.
Ryan and other instructors often hop into the car through the day to guide participants through the steps of both emergency training techniques as well as more entertaining manoeuvres.
Sessions are held from 9am to 4pm. A briefing session is held in the morning, and refreshments and lunch are provided throughout the day.
Price: $395. For more information, contact RedBalloonDays on 1300 87 55 00 or visit www.redballoondays.com.au.

... but before we start the engine, I show you one more star.
If the Patchwork star was one of my favorite stars, I think the Nested star is the other.
Oh, I love this star pattern!!!
Except I did not remember to pay enough attention to the direction of a lighter green fabric. Damn...Simpura sentään! Oh well, no one is perfect...
Now... Are you ready for 'a drive'? It's only a short one...
... but looks very curvy and complex!
What do you think, did I handle it?
Wov! So many crossings on the way!
Have to be careful with the direction of the pressings...
Luckily I have my own ironing-inspector ;o)... Fenix, advice me immediately, if I press the seams wrong!
FeNIX! FENIX!
Oh no, he has fallen asleep!!! Well, I need to cope alone...
After a few hours of 'hard' work... öhöm... drive ;o)
I saw it finished...
It's a block called 'Sunday Drive',
designed by Polly Minick & Laurie Simpson.
The block is tenth block of the 2012 Designer Mystery BOM. This mystery ends in May and a new mystery begins in June. More of these Designer mysteries you can read here.
I'm glad, if YOU were with me to the end of this drive...
as opposed to the one inspector ;o)
JOYFUL WEEK, but drive carefully!!!

Greetings Music & Movie Lovers: Last Saturday may have been the four hundredth anniversary of the passing of William Shakespeare, but at the Rose, Ludwig van Beethoven ruled the day. Our debut of the new series featuring the Berlin Philharmonic was an unqualified hit with the audience. To quote one nearly speechless attendee, "That concert was a Wowser!" Tickets will go even faster for the next concert - Sunday, May 15th- which features Andris Nelsons conducting Richard Wagner's transcendent PARSIFAL, and Anton Bruckner's monumental SYMPHONY No. 3 in D minor. The New York Times said that Andris Nelsons "seems to draw the best from every orchestra he works with." And moving from the musically sublime to the musical, bell-bottomed 1980s, writer-director Richard Linklater brings us his "spiritual sequel" to DAZED AND CONFUSED ('93), with a serious, kick-ass soundtrack, featuring the music of Van Halen, Blondie, The Cars, Sugar Hill Gang, Cheap Trick and The Knack. EVERYBODY WANT SOME is getting some of the best reviews of the year. It's a toe-tapper, and it'll bring a smile to your face.

A Macon, Georgia grandmother died after police say her 22-year-old granddaughter attacked her, knocking her unconscious.
Authorities say 62-year-old Shirley Green was placed on life support at The Medical Center of Central Georgia and later died after the confrontation.
Bibb County arrest warrants say 22-year-old Kierra Thomas punched her in the head and kicked her in the stomach. She's charged with two counts of aggravated assault and one count of cruelty to children. The cruelty charge stems from allegations that Thomas shook her 2-year-old daughter and held her to a sofa in a choke hold.
Jail records show that Thomas was being held at the Bibb County jail on $28,690 bond. The records do not indicate whether she has an attorney in the case.

Barcelona vs Juventus: TV channel, stream, kick-off time, odds & match preview
Barcelona will need to produce another miraculous comeback to avoid elimination from the Champions League at the hands of Juventus on Wednesday night.
The Catalans overcame a 4-0 first-leg deficit against Paris Saint-Germain in the last 16, and now must repeat the feat at Camp Nou after suffering a 3-0 defeat to the Bianconeri at Juventus Stadium.
Could Messi & Dybala play together?
They will find it a tougher task this time, however, against a defensive unit packed with tried and tested veterans such as Gianluigi Buffon and Giorgio Chiellini.
|Barcelona vs Juventus
|Wednesday, April 19, 2017
In the UK, the match will be available to watch live on television on BT Sport 2 and by stream via the BT Sport app.

|Barcelona players
|Ter Stegen, Cillessen
|Pique, Mascherano, Alba, Digne, Sergi Roberto, Umtiti
|Rakitic, Busquets, Denis Suarez, Iniesta, Gomes, Alena
|Luis Suarez, Messi, Neymar, Alcacer
Barca have Sergio Busquets back in contention after suspension and are likely to give their three-man defence another go with the anchorman returned to the team despite its lack of success in the first leg.
Jordi Masip and Jeremy Mathieu have been deemed surplus to requirements for this match and are not in the squad, while Arda Turan, Rafinha and Aleix Vidal are all injured.
Potential starting XI: Ter Stegen; Mascherano, Pique, Umtiti; Busquets; Sergi Roberto, Rakitic, Iniesta, Neymar; Messi, Suarez.
|Juventus players
|Buffon, Neto, Audero
|Chiellini, Benatia, Alex Sandro, Mattiello, Barzagli, Bonucci, Dani Alves, Rugani, Lichtsteiner
|Pjanic, Khedira, Cuadrado, Marchisio, Lemina, Asamoah, Sturaro, Rincon
|Higuain, Mandzukic, Dybala
Marko Pjaca is the only absentee for Juventus, so their squad is exactly the same as the one Massimiliano Allegri chose from for the first leg.
Allegri may well name the same starting XI after resting all four of the defenders that started the home fixture, as well as Gianluigi Buffon and Sami Khedira, for the win over Pescara in Serie A at the weekend. Miralem Pjanic was substituted at half-time and Paulo Dybala came off in the 54th minute.
Potential starting XI: Buffon; Dani Alves, Bonucci, Chiellini, Alex Sandro; Khedira, Pjanic; Cuadrado, Dybala, Mandzukic; Higuain.
Barcelona are available at around 4/9 to win at home, according to Oddschecker, with Juventus outsiders at 6/1 and the draw priced at 4/1.
When is the Champions League draw?
Lionel Messi is the 16/5 favourite to score first, with Luis Suarez and Neymar priced at 7/2 and 6/1 respectively and Gonzalo Higuain the top Juventus choice at 15/2.
Luis Enrique was surprisingly upbeat, rather than annoyed, at the task facing his side after a second heavy defeat in a row away from home in the Champions League. "This is a bit similar to the PSG match but in theory we need to score fewer goals - instead of four, just three to square things," he noted.
Apparently not particularly confident about his side's ability to keep a clean sheet, though, the coach added that he wanted five. "If we score the first goal early, the Camp Nou atmosphere will help conjure a second and third... that'll take care of itself," he continued.
"Right now we've nothing to lose. There's only one option: attack, attack, attack."
While Barca need fewer goals this time, though, they face sterner opposition in Juventus. They have conceded a grand total of two goals in nine games in this season's Champions League and are yet to suffer defeat.
The Catalans will take encouragement from the four Juve shipped to Bayern Munich in last season's round of 16, but the 4-2 defeat the Bianconeri suffered that night would still see them through this time. It is also worth noting that three of Bayern's goals came after 90 minutes had passed.
Barca need another miracle, in short, and a season which looked as if it might be salvageable after the incredible comeback against PSG may be over - the Copa del Rey final aside - without favourable results on Wednesday night and in Sunday's Clasico. Despite all he achieved in his first two seasons at the club, Luis Enrique's legacy is on the line.

|Retro hot pink carry case
|Packed full of hexagon loveliness!
It was while packing my retro hot pink old case (that someone was going to throw out!), that I had an 'a-ha' moment....This project would be absolutely perfect for the travelling 'grey nomad'.
It is so portable, you don't even need an iron. Just your needle and thread, pretty material, glue-pen, pre-cut hexagons, scissors, template and some zip-lock bags, and of course, a 'flash' container to hold them all...
