We meet on:*
Mondays 10am – 2pm
Thursdays, 1 – 5pm
No sessions on Thu 22nd & Mon 26th August, Thu 5th & Mon 9th September.
In the London Bubble workshop, 5 Elephant Lane, SE16 4JD
Members are welcome to drop in and out at any point during our opening hours (above).
Rotherhithe Shed is designed for older men (55yrs+) in Southwark (but welcomes men and women), based on the very successful Australian Men's Shed movement. A partnership project between London Bubble Theatre Company and Time & Talents, it aims to bring together older men (and women) to put their practical skills to good use – fixing, making, whittling, drilling, sawing and generally tinkering.
Sessions are held in a well equipped workshop where participants can work together on a range of practical activities. Skilled artists and technical experts are available to support the participants, and project ideas are strongly encouraged and developed. If you have something that needs mending or maintaining, be it a wobbly chair or a squeaky bike bring it along. Or if you want to help make and paint the new sign for the shed, or just make the tea – you are welcome.
Rotherhithe Shed is a good opportunity for anyone looking for social and creative experiences, including a chance to make new friends, to experience the camaraderie of working with other men or simply putting practical skills to good use.
It's free, it's participative, and it's open to all. Whether you are someone with no skills or highly skilled, there is a role for you at Rotherhithe Shed.
* We have short breaks for public holidays.
We would like to thank the National Lottery Community Fund, the City of London Corporation's charity, City Bridge Trust & The Henry Smith Charity for their generous support.

Preparing for a career as a West Fork Physical Therapist
There are a variety of considerations to be made regarding the very rewarding and fulfilling career of physical therapy. These considerations need to be made before even beginning your career journey. While it is exciting and challenging, the path to become a physical therapist can be a demanding one with many obstacles. This article will provide info on the common steps to become a physical therapist in neurology.
Steps to become a physical therapist in West Fork AR
1. Gain Understanding Concerning This Profession
The fundamental duty of a physical therapist is to take care of individuals who have sustained accidents or have disabilities to regain use of their bodies; nevertheless, this is merely the basic role. When evaluating the role of a physical therapist in neurology, it is necessary to take into account the a variety of tasks and challenges one may face.
Parkinson's Disease, brain and spinal chord injuries, these are only a couple of the extreme medical conditions you can encounter as a physical therapist. Afflictions such as this are very tricky and demand complex treatment strategies. You will have to cultivate the competence to deal with these individuals over time. This requires persistence and perseverance.
2. Have College Admission Information
You need to be considering a postgraduate degree in the medical field first and foremost. Some physical therapists have managed though with only a bachelor's degree. This academic background is essential. You won't have success without it. This applies most notably to the field of neurology which requires intimate understanding of more complex conditions.
Be sure to get admission info from West Fork AR schools early in the process!
3. On The Job Experience
Among the most necessary steps to become a physical therapist is to earn experience in the field. During the course of your undergraduate study, you should be looking into volunteering at rehab clinics. This will help you in the direction of a post graduate residency. This may assist in acquiring practical experience in physical therapy, particularly when finding clinics emphasizing neurological rehabilitation. The hours of voluntary work can contribute to the graduate residency.
4. Gain Mentorship
Locating a mentor is going to be crucial when taking part in graduate school. Coaches may be beneficial as they will provide information regarding the industry and offer advice on numerous factors of the physical therapy position.
5. Achieving Arkansas Certification As A Physical Therapist
One of the final actions to become a physical therapist is to gain state certification. In each state you will be required to carry out licensing exams for certified physical therapy associations before being able to practice. Once you have finished your first state license, you're going to need to be certified in an additional state before you can practice. This can appear exceptionally demanding but the fulfillment of the position can make the studying worthwhile.

Why Worship Animals?
For the pious Hindu of the ancient times, who perceived God even in mountains, rivers and seas, forms of life such as animals and birds, were also worthy of worship. He saw divinity in the cow that provided milk, the dog that kept a watch over his property, the bullocks that ploughed his field the list is endless.
This was because of his conviction that all life forms are manifestations of God in the lower level of evolution and that human birth itself is a step forward from past existence to animal form. The difference between man and animals was only in terms of tattvas (principles) and gunas(qualities).
Thus human life is precious because it is attained after many levels of existence in lower form. If the value if such an opportunity is ignored he will only degenerate into lower level again. This belief continues even today among the pious.
Not merely that. The devout person has a sense of gratitude towards all beings that help out in his existence. He values cattle as wealth. The cow, especially, is God for him. He calls it Gomata (mother cow) , evincing as much respect towards a cow as for one s mother.
The cow gives staple food (milk) for him; ghee from its milk is used for sacred purposes such as havans; even its urine and dung are consumed in the form of panchagavya (five ingredients for purification). In fact, the Ayurveda system of healing finds medicinal properties in cows urine.
For the pastoral people of the ancient days sustenance depended very much on diary products. No wonder there is respectful reference to the cow in the Vedas and the Puranas. All devas are said to reside in its body Sarvadevatastitadehesarvadevamayeehigau. (The legendary Kamadhenu could provide an unlimited supply of food requirements).
The Atharva Veda says the cows body represents various devas and other divine beings. The Mahabharata, Harivamsa Purana, Manu Smriti and other literature eulogise the cow. In short, Lord Krishna is referred to as Go-pala sustainer of the cow, and Govinda, who brings satisfaction to the cow.
Not merely the cow, but so many other animals , such as the horse and elephant, which aided travels and formed part of the armed strength of the rulers, were intertwined with human life. People had deep knowledge of their behaviour, strength and vulnerability, intelligence and susceptibilities, helpfulness and obduracy.
Their vast knowledge of animals and their behaviours been recorded in scriptures of those times. The Upanishads contain detailed descriptions of horses and cattle. There is reference in the Garuda Purana to the life and activities of fish and turtles. Many religious books are dedicated to specific animals ; for example, the Nagamahimya, Nandi-purana, Mayuramahimya and Pashu-purana.
Leave alone domesticated animals; wild and vicious creatures were also revered. Pujas were performed for them. The cobra was and is considered to have divine elements.
Panchatantra Tales
The ancient familiarised their children also with the intelligence and industrious nature of birds and animals through tales, such as the famous Panchatantra and Jataka tales. Who is not familiar with the cleverness of the monkey that saved its life from the crocodile by a smart ruse of going back to the tree to bring its liver, or the sense of gratitude of a rat which bit to pieces a net in which a lion was trapped. Just because the lion had earlier spared its life when it provoked the king of animals by its pranks!
An Evolution
The Dasavatara of Lord Vishnu also provides insight into the concept that the human form is an evolution from water bound life to existence full of intelligence and the good and bad effects thereof.
In Maschavatara the Lord emanated as a fish to save mankind from extinction. In Kurmavatara he took the form of a tortoise and saved the world. He also supported the Merumountain assuming the form of a tortoise when the Ocean of Milk was churned to bring out nectar.
Next , the progression was from water to earth in the form of a boar which brought out Bhoodevi from under the sea, holding her on its horn. The next development was the half animal half man form of Narasimha, which the lord assumed to honour the words of his devotee, Prahlada, and to destroy evil in the form of Hiranyakasipu, who had declared himself to be God and was terrorising the whole world.
Then came Vamanavatar, the Lord donning here the form of a dwarf. The later avatars in human form indicate the total evolution of man.
Saga of Animal Help
The Ramayana, one of the two great epics of the Hindus, gives substance to the importance attached to animals. Primarily Hanuman, an intelligent monkey, was the trusted lieutenant of Lord Rama. It was he who took up the daunting task of flying across the sea to locate Sita in Ravanas captivity. Hanuman himself was not aware of such strength in him. It was given to Jambavan, the bear, to make him realise it.
Earlier, Lord Rama, even after an exhaustive and exhausting search, could not find a trace of his beloved Sita. It was Jatayu, son of the divine eagle, Garuda, who told him of the abduction of Sita by the demon, Ravana.
Jatayu had earlier fought valiantly with Ravana to foil the abduction bid, but could not stand before the strength of the wily demon. Jatayu managed to hold his breath till he saw Rama and breathed his last at the feet of the master. No wonder Rama himself rendered the last rites of the loyal eagle.
Again, even tiny squirrels helped Rama to construct the floating bridge to Lanka, which was a marvel talked about even today.
Such intelligent and important service endeared animals to men. Ancient kings adopted them as emblems in their flags. The Pandya kings of the Tamil region adopted fish as their emblem and the Chera king had tigers in their flags. Animals and birds occupied prime of place in art and architecture.
Festivities Galore
With so much respect for animals it was natural that numerous festivities were observed to honour them. At the beginning of the harvest season in the south, puja is performed to bullocks in gratitude for their role in the production.
In Maharashtra also there is Bali Puja (bullock festival). Nag Panchami in the north is a festival of worshipping snakes. There are also GajaPooja (for elephants) and Asva Puja (for horses).

Last night, the Americans got back on the top of the medal stand thanks to a gold from Katie Ledecky in the 400m freestyle and a gold for the American men's 4x100m freestyle relay team. With four finals tonight, the Americans are in an incredible position to add several more gold medals to their resume.
Things are going to start out with the women's 200m freestyle semifinals where Katie Ledecky has been absolutely dominant. She led this morning with a 1:55.01 and doesn't seem to show any signs of slowing down.
After the semifinals of the women's 200m freestyle, there will be four consecutive finals in a row which will be the highlight of tonight's competition.
The first final will be the men's 200m freestyle where China's Sun Yang will be attempting redemption for his loss in the 400m freestyle earlier in the meet. You can bet Kosuke Hagino and Conor Dwyer are going to be in the mix trying to take down the Chinese superstar and earn individual gold.
Things just get stronger for the Americans here on out as they have the top qualifier in each of the next three finals. Kathleen Baker has been rocking solid 58.8s to lead both the prelims and semifinals of the 100m backstroke. She'll have Emily Seebohm to contend with but is right in the ballpark for a medal.
The men's 100m backstroke has been a staple event for the Americans. They haven't lost this event since the 1992 Olympic Games where Mark Tewksbury of Canada took out Jeff Rouse and David Berkoff.
Twenty-four years later and both Ryan Murphy and David Plummer are leading the charge. They went in seeded one and two, but will have to race against 2015 world champion Mitch Larkin of Australia if they want to pull off a stunner.
The heated grudge-match between Lilly King and Yulia Efimova will take place last night. The famous finger-wag by King as she disapproved of Efimova's throwing up a number one sign after her race went viral last night. Now, plenty is at stake. King is the top seed, Efimova is the second seed. World record holder Ruta Meilutyte is in the hunt as well.
Following the four finals, Michael Phelps, Chad le Clos, and Laszlo Cseh will all race in the semifinals of the men's 200m butterfly. Phelps infamously lost this race in 2012 and is looking to get the gold back in his hands by setting himself up for a strong final tomorrow.
The last event of the night will be the women's 200m IM where we're on world record watch. Katinka Hosszu broke the Olympic record this morning and has been on fire all week.

Katie Ledecky was beaten. No it wasn't an international final, so her streak of never losing an individual event at an international final is still alive, but tomorrow night it might be in jeopardy.
In a head-to-head match up with Sweden's Sarah Sjostrom, Ledecky finished second with a time of 1:54.81 to Sjostrom's 1:54.65. Ledecky was ahead at the 100, but lost the race on the last 50 where Sjostrom edged out in front of her and Ledecky was unable to close the gap.
World record holder Frederica Pellegrini of Italy was third behind the two leaders with a time of 1:55.42, the only other swimmer to dip under 1:56 this evening.
Shen Duo of China put up a very strong 1:56.03 to take the fourth overall seed shead of Michelle Coleman of Sweden. Coleman was a 1:56.05 swimming in the same semifinal as Sjostrom and Ledecky.
American Missy Franklin failed to advance to the finals after finishing eighth in the first semifinal. Other notable swimmers to miss the final were Veronika Poova and Femke Heemskerk

Chad le Clos took things out hard in the final of the men's 200m freestyle, taking it out as fast as he could and just trying to hold on. At the 100-meter mark he was in first, splitting an incredible 50.36 at the halfway point.
Heading into the 150-wall both Sun Yang of China and Conor Dwyer of the United States began to creep up on him from the middle lanes, pushing the pace as le Clos tried to hold on.
With 50-meters to go it was all between Yang, Dwyer, and le Clos as the three inched out ahead of the rest of the field.
Yang managed to edge out in front of the early leader and didn't let Dwyer pass him, ultimately winning his first Olympic gold of the meet with a 1:44.65. Le Clos' strategy paid off for him in the end, handing him the silver medal with a 1:45.20 performance.
American Dwyer was third in 1:45.23. Defending world champion James Guy of Great Britain finished fourth in a time of 1:45.49, just shy of a podium finish.

2012 Olympic Champion: 58.33 – Missy Franklin – USA
To anybody watching the race it appeared as though Australia's Emily Seebohm had the race in the bag at the 50-meter mark, turning in first 0.48 seconds under world record pace.
Coming off that 50-wall the United States' Kathleen Baker had an incredible turn in order to jet her into the lead. Keeping up with Baker was Hungary's Katinka Hosszu, who was just slightly behind her but consistently inching up.
While the battle for gold was on between Hosszu and Baker, things heated up for bronze throughout the rest of the pool. Canada's Kylie Masse and China's Fu Yuanhui both managed to pass Seebohm and put on a fight for a medal.
With 10-meters to go, Hosszu passed Baker in order to get her hand on the wall first and earn her second gold of the games with a 58.45. Baker held on for the silver, clocking in at 58.75.
Touching in for bronze just one one-hundredth behind Baker was Masse and Yuanhui. Masse broke the Canadian national record en route to a shared bronze medal.

2012 Olympic Champion: 52.16 – Matt Grevers – USA
The streak of American dominance in the men's 100m backstroke continued tonight, as an American man topped the podium for the sixth consecutive Olympics in a row dating all the way back to 1996.
Ryan Murphy put a scare on the world record, just missing it by three one-hundredths of a second in order to smash the Olympic record and claim his first Olympic gold.
Murphy rocked an incredible 51.97 to make him only the second man in the history of swimming besides Aaron Peirsol to break the 52-second barrier.
That time for Murphy was the fastest textile swim ever in this event and the second fastest performance all time.
China's Xu Jiayu managed to clock in a very impressive 52.31 to take down David Plummer of the United States and spoil the 1-2 finish for the American men. Xu's silver medal makes it the first time since the 2004 Olympics that the Americans wouldn't finish 1-2 in the 100 back.
Plummer did manage to finish third in 52.40. Defending world champion Mitch Larkin of Australia was fourth in 52.43.

2012 Olympic Champion: 1:05.47 – Ruta Meilutyte – Lithuania
Lilly King of the United States made an absolute statement in the 100m breaststroke, backing up her talk about Yulia Efimova earlier in the heats by taking home the gold in a sub 1:05-performance.
King was out fast, and with 25-meters to go Efimova of Russia was charging. Stroke for stroke, with 15-meters to go King switched to another gear, refusing to let Efimova, who had recently failed two doping tests, take her down at the end.
With a huge surge and absolute resilience, King claimed the gold medal with a 1:04.93. Efimova managed to hold on for the silver medal in a time of 1:05.50.
American Katie Meili was passed by Efimova on the final 50, but still managed to get on the podium. Meili was a 1:05.69 finishing just 0.19 seconds shy of Efimova's time.

Olympic Record: 1:52.03 (2008) – Michael Phelps – USA
2012 Olympic Champion: 1:52.96 – Chad le Clos – South Africa
In their first head-to-head matchup since the Olympic final in London 2012 where Chad le Clos took down Michael Phelps, Phelps beat le Clos, although he didn't win the semifinal.
Tamas Kenderesi, the 19-year-old from Hungary who took the top seed this morning in the 200m fly, was back at it again, claiming the win in the second semifinal with a solid 1:53.96 performance.
Phelps led the entire race and was only passed by Kenderesi in the last 25-meters of the swim. He still managed to finish second with a 1:54.12 which was good for second overall. Third in the final was le Clos who trailed Phelps the entire swim. Le Clos just came off a silver medal performance in the 200m freestyle but still managed a 1:55.19 for fourth overall.
Laszlo Cseh, also of Hungary, was third overall with his winning time of 1:55.18 from the first semifinal.
Originally thought to be a three man race between le Clos, Phelps and Cseh, Kenderesi is making a case that he's in the mix for a medal as well.

So, we finally had a tryst with a woman who was not our girlfriend. Not that we haven't done so before, but it'd been well over a year since we'd done so.
In my mind I kinda committed to NOT sleeping with anyone unless she's my girlfriend. A girl has needs though and finally I had to act on those.
I went to my favorite online resource, posted an ad, and and waited for the responses to come in. I happen to be very descriptive in wording and I/we have very attractive pictures.
I responded to every inquiry that held my interest and waited to see who was serious as I weighed was I really serious about screwing some random girl just because I needed a 'taste'.
A few responded with the thousand questions, pic collectors, etc b.s. A couple were real.
I responded to the couple that were real to see who would voice verify first. One voice verified immediately.
We hit it off instantly. She was at work, we spoke briefly and she promised to come over straight from work. True to her word she called the minute she got off, she actually asked to be let off early and her request was granted!
We agreed to meet in a public place, it was still daylight, with plenty of people around. When she walked up, she looked just like her picture. Not exactly my type but she had a nice body and an easy to get along with personality.
We walked toward my house and talked, not a nervous tinge in the air at all. I was happy things were flowing smoothly. Now I just hoped she didn't have a smell down there that would turn me off. Some women have a smell that's nauseating to me. Others make my mouth water. I hoped over and over the closer we got to my house she had a mouth watering scent, makes for better sex.
In the house she introduced herself to my husband easily, we talked for about an hour, found they shared a major commonality, prior military service. She was a Vet. This turned me on.
She was young, only 22 but was much more mature. She worked with the elderly, had 4 years of military behind her and was working on building a good life for herself as a civilian.
When she took her clothes off you could still see the Army in her tone. She laid back on my bed, naked, no problem. I didn't want to be rude but it had been a long time. I dove right in. She didn't mind one bit. She was getting exactly what she came for.
She didn't have a mouth watering scent, she didn't have a nauseating scent. She had a pretty pussy that got wet easily, flat tummy, firm thighs & butt, pretty titties and her reactions to stimulation amped me up from the start. She loved every single touch and we loved the fact that she loved it.
My husband and I strummed her body like a fine tuned piano until she couldn't take anymore and tapped out. We finished up with each other while she watched and wore herself out one more time, lol.
We all had 'fun', we all got what we were looking for to say the least.
She left exhausted with the promise to return the following week should we decide to call her.
We couldn't call her the following week on the agreed day due to children being in the house but I surely didn't forget the fact she was supposed to be there that evening. I wanted her there that evening. I thought about her, I thought about calling her over and sending the kids out for a while. The kids are 22 , 21, 18. They'd surely understand. They're not ignorant to my sexuality.
The girl we met was not necessarily girlfriend material, and yet she was not necessarily not girlfriend material.
She's great in bed, that's cool, and she's cool, that's cool too and maybe we'll see her this week.
In the meantime, I'm still looking for 'Her' but at least I'm not drooling over sexy cartoon characters anymore, lol.

You don't need to be recovering from an injury or surgery to be a patient at the IU Health Rehabilitation and Sports Medicine Center. You don't even have to be in pain. Sure, the center provides all of the traditional rehabilitation services prescribed by doctors, but its series of Enhancement Programs will also help healthy Bloomingtonians become better cyclists, runners, and golfers.
These clients, says Ryan Taylor, Wellness Program coordinator, range from "weekend warriors who just want to amp up their training" to seasoned triathletes. Whatever their sport and whatever their level of skill, the goal is the same: "We're trying to make movement as efficient as possible," says Taylor. "It's all about maximizing potential and minimizing risk of injury."
Take the Gear Up Bicycle Fitting and Cycling Enhancement Program, for example. Whether the participant just rides a bike to work or is a competitive cyclist, an exercise specialist with experience and interest in cycling will assess the rider's posture, strength, flexibility, and movement both off the bike and on a stationary trainer. Participants bring their own bicycles.
"We try to line up their position on the bike for maximum efficiency, whether it's a road or mountain bike," explains Taylor. Greater efficiency allows the rider to conserve more energy, which, in turn, can lead to improved performance. Data from the assessments are used to create an individual exercise program.
The center offers two programs specifically for runners. In the FrontRunner Running Enhancement Program, "we assess the runners' form, including a video analysis of their gait, and offer corrective exercises," says Taylor. Participants can choose a half-hour analysis based only on the video or a one-hour program that includes strength and flexibility screens and a foot posture assessment. Participants can then choose to take the FrontRunner Conditioning Class, which focuses on stretching and strengthening of the lower body.
The other running program, PoolRunner, "is less popular than FrontRunner," says Taylor, "but is very good for runners of all levels who are not in [rehabilitation] therapy." Participants run on an underwater treadmill in chest-deep water, but the speed, water depth, and other variables are adjusted based on the individual's fitness level, health profile, and goals.
Golf Ready is a conditioning program designed to increase flexibility, strength, and balance as they relate to the participant's golf swing and to promote endurance. The program, says Taylor, can benefit everyone from "high school athletes on their school's golf team to people who have retired and want to take up the game." Golf Ready combines a video analysis of the golfer's swing with a physical assessment of joint mobility, flexibility, strength, and balance. These data are then used to tailor an individual conditioning program specifically for golf.
Whatever the program, the exercise specialists will provide feedback and a suggested exercise regimen to follow at home. "If people are dedicated to any of these activities and want to improve," says Taylor, "these are the programs for them."

Step 1: Clinician Submits Application
After a clinician submits an application, it can be hard to go back and forth deciding on a time to have a phone interview. Luckily, Nomad has a feature that makes scheduling a phone screen easier.
Immediately after a clinician submits an application, they will be able to select days and times they are available to have a phone interview. Their application and availability is then sent directly to you.
Step 2: Viewing Availability
To view their availability and schedule a phone screen, log into your Nomad account and click the candidate's name. Then click "View Application." You can also go right to their application/availability by clicking on the "Schedule a Phone Screen" or "View Application" buttons on the new application notification email. Please note that a clinician's availability only extends for 7 days. After this period, you will not be able to see any availability, but you can always send them a message to schedule a phone screen.
Step 3: Selecting a Time
Once on the application view screen you will be able to view all of the candidates details and application, and see when they are available to have a phone interview. To schedule a phone interview, select the times in blue that you would be available and enter your appropriate phone number. Then click the blue "Request Phone Screen" button. Make sure to review the time zone in the upper left corner when selecting a time.
Step 4: Conducting the Phone Screen
Nomad will send a calendar invite to you and the clinician for an agreed upon day and time. At the time of the phone screen, UberConference will give you a call and connect you directly with the candidate. If something comes up, the candidate's phone number will be available in the calendar invite.

Not to be mistaken by the Vivo line by BLU Products, the Chinese consumer electronics company has just unveiled the new Vivo XPlay5. As we speculated, the set of photos that leaked last week turned out to be true. And yes, even the Snapdragon 820 processor and 6GB RAM information is true making it the first smartphone in the world to officially use such high memory.
The Vivo XPlay5 looks strikingly the same as the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge. It's also an iPhone 6 look-alike in many angles. To say the least, the new Vivo phone is a mashup of the iPhone 6 and the Galaxy S7 edge but with a much lower price. If you think you don't need that too much RAM, there's a lower end version with only 4GB RAM and a Snapdragon 652.
The 6GB/S820 variant of the Vivo XPlay5 comes equipped with an Adreno 530 624MHz, 32GB storage, MicroSD card slot, and Android 6.0 Marshmallow. The lower 4GB RAM version only features a 16GB onboard storage and Android 5.1 Lollipop with 1.GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 652 and Adreno 510 600MHz GPU. The curved edge screen really looks a lot life a Galaxy edge display but honestly, that's not the first thing that will impress you but rather the 6GB RAM.
This new Vivo Xplay is a follow-up to the Xplay3S that came with an impressive 2K screen. There's no Xplay4 but now we know that when Vivo releases an XPlay phone, it's guaranteed to have one "extreme" feature. This year, the RAM is pumped up to 6GB.
Specs of the new Vivo Android smartphone include the following: 5.43-inch Super AMOLED display, 2,560 x 1,440 QHD resolution, 16MP camera with f/2.0 Sony IMX298 sensor, 8MP f/2.4 front-facing cam, and 3600mAh fast charging battery. Most of the features are considered premium already but sadly, there's no NFC connectivity. It's not even USB Type-C yet but that's okay since the Galaxy S7/S7 edge also doesn't have it.
No information on exact availability yet but the latest flagship phone by Vivo is now ready for pre-order. The 4GB RAM version is already expensive at 3,698 yuan ($560) while the 6GB variant is more pricey at 4,288 yuan ($650). Phone is available in either pink or gold.

Melissa officinalis (lemon balm) and its extracts have been frequently reported as possessing bioactive properties, offering the potential for use in development/enrichment of food products with additional functional capabilities, providing health benefits to consumers. The antioxidant, antibacterial and antifungal activity of lemon balm extract, as well as its potential hepatotoxicity were thoroughly evaluated. The extracts were then incorporated into cupcakes and their preserving effect, chemical composition, colour parameters and antioxidant activity were compared with those provided by potassium sorbate. In general, the variables with the largest differences among different storage times were energy level, sucrose, glucose, palmitic acid (C6:0) and oleic acid (C18:1n9). On the other hand, L∗ (top), a∗ (top), b∗ (top), pH, capric acid (C10:0) and lauric acid (C12:0) showed the greatest variation according to cupcake formulation. The results observed indicate that the lemon balm extract rich in rosmarinic acid can provide advantageous functional properties to bakery products.

Ray Bradbury, the author of Fahrenheit 451, said, "There are worse crimes than burning books. One of them is not reading them." This is especially the case if you are – or want to be – a writer.
Writers, like everyone else, need to read for pleasure and information, but they also need to train themselves to "notice" in a way that non-writers do not. In order to write well, writers need to learn to read well. They need to "notice" features of the books they read so that they can add them to their own repertoire of writing techniques.
Are You A Writer? Show Me How You Read
I'm not talking here about how many books you read… what matters is how you read. It is this that reveals whether or not you are a writer. As a writer you will be reading for much more than plot. You will be reading for technique and style, and for how the author makes you laugh or cry. You will be taking a book apart and working out how the author uses language to achieve the effects that trigger your emotions.
Reading is not a race or a competition. When you read as a writer it should be the equivalent of sitting down to a lavish meal in a restaurant in Provence or Tuscany. Would you really gobble down that feast and then add it to your list of meals eaten? If that's the case, let us pity the poor chef.
On the contrary, you would probably savour the ingredients of those dishes and try to work out what they were. Consider how you would feel if, after many years of hard work, redrafting and editing your own book, someone whipped through it in a couple of hours and then notched it up as just another novel they'd read?
Why Real Writers Read
As a writer you need to read in order to find out what's being published and what themes are trending. Read Luigi Bonomi's Writing Tips article to understand how important this is. If you are not reading anything, your ideas about writing will, without a doubt, be grossly out-of-date. Can you really write for today's audience if you don't keep up with what people are buying and reading?
You definitely need to read in order to learn your craft. Don't show up at a writers' workshop asking to be taught how to write and, at the same time, confessing that you never read. Writing is a proactive occupation, and books are your best teachers. They will show you how to begin a novel, how to structure it, and how to end it. They will teach you how words can create magic.
How Reading Can Turn You Into A Better Writer
Read a book first for pleasure and to find out what happens. If this is a book that really appeals to you, then read it again, but this time with a pen and notebook by your side. There is no book from which you cannot glean some useful idea or solution for your own work-in-progress.
Have you decided, for example, how your own book will be structured? As in the novels of Jeffrey Deaver, or Chris Carter, chapters may be short and punchy, with "cliff-hanger" endings designed to keep us guessing what happens next. If you're writing non-fiction, you may want to divide your book up thematically as in Lynn Barber's classic An Education, or chronologically as in Peter Mayle's A Year in Provence.
Is your dialogue too laboured and "on the nose"? In that case, look at how spare it is in novels such as Cormac McCarthy's The Road. Or, see how it is purposely fragmented or out-of-synch in books like Don Delillo's Underworld. Learn from these writers how to invite your readers to grasp your sub-text, the message between the lines.
Are you planning on having multiple narrators? Take a look at William Faulkner's As I Lay Dying, or Paula Hawkins' The Girl on the Train. Are you going to launch straight into your story, or do you want to try a framing device, as in Henry James' The Turn of the Screw? Do you need find a way to get inside your protagonist's head? See how Eimear McBride does this in her book, A Girl is a Half-formed Thing. And, if physical descriptions are a problem for you, go back to look at that last Stephen King novel that you read way too fast.
As King himself says, "If you don't have time to read, you don't have the time (or the tools) to write. Simple as that."

How is the Caribbean Court of Justice different from the Caribbean Court of Appeal proposed by Jamaica at the Sixth Heads of Government Conference?
The Caribbean Court of Justice is more than a court of last resort for Member States of the Caribbean Community. In addition to replacing the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, the CCJ is vested with an original jurisdiction in respect of the interpretation and application of the Treaty of Chaguaramas, which established the Caribbean Community. In effect, the CCJ exercises both an appellate and an original jurisdiction.

Don't Let a Void Fear Keep You From Living Your Life.
If just thinking it causes you to start to feel the fear, it's time you did something about it. The good news is that we have never met a case of void fear that could not be overcome.
If you are now ready to have this over and done with, here's what you can expect from us:
- Void fear better or gone in as little as a day
- Utter discretion
- We've helped people from 70+ countries vanquish their fear
Getting Started
There are two programs we offer to help you overcome void fear fast. Our programs are designed to help you do it yourself with the Home Study program or get board-certified help with our one-on-one program:
Home-Study Program: Vanquish Fear & Anxiety
CD's and Workbook $147 or Download for $137
• Download Now and Start Immediately
• Go at Your Own Speed in the Privacy of Your Home
One-on-One 'VIP' Program
Individual Program Created Specifically for You by Your Practitioner
• One-on-one Appointments with Board-Certified Practitioner
• Wide range of Proven Techniques to Eradicate Your Fear
How This System Works
It is all about learning to redirect your unconscious mind, which sounds like a lot but is easier than you may think. On the surface, you know that this business with empty spaces doesn't make sense. Yet the fear perseveres only because your subconscious has 'linked' the thought of empty spaces to a bunch of strong negative feelings – which get brought up automatically every time.
Getting rid of those automatic feelings isn't hard – you just need the right techniques for changing your reaction to your personal set of empty spaces-related triggers. We're here to give you give you what you need to take back control. Isn't it time you took control?
- A Board-Certified Practitioner is ready to speak with you. Contact Us Now Contact Us Now >
The Only Real Solution to Your Fear
We don't, in point of fact, 'treat', nor do we 'cure'. As much as we'd like to wave a magic wand and 'cure' you, it's actually up to you to change how you feel. Quite simply, we are here to hold your hand through this method of self-empowerment.
You will learn how to cultivate positive feelings while learning to combat and eventually vanquish negative feelings that cause your fear. You have dealt with these emotions haunting you long enough. It is time for you to stop that cycle of negative thoughts.
Void Fear Risk Factors and Triggers
An really disturbing incident from the past, is often (though, not always) the root cause of Void Fear. Your fear may also seem to come out of no where – with no memory you can think of. To locate the foundation, and substitute encouraging connections in place of the negative ones, is the solution. Persons that find themselves at greatest risk:
• Those who have a general predisposition for fear and anxiety
• If you are jittery, edgy, sensitive, nervous
• One who is dealing with adrenal insufficiency
Do you feel as if even one of these represents you? To find out what others are saying about our ability to help, click here.
Or you can <see what the media> is saying.
Diagnosing Your Phobia
Uncover the seriousness of the issue for you by using our 2 minute Test Online for Void Fear …however it's pretty obvious: The time to act is now, if this phobia is causing negativity in your life.
- Do you become queasy at the smallest idea of Empty Spaces?
- Does it automatically initiate sticky hands and a mouth that is made of cotton?
- Does your heart begin to race?
- Do your legs turn to rubber?
Those are just a few of the symptoms. Click to find out more about the symptoms of void fear.
Not only do we deal with the symptoms, we locate the foundation. That's why we're here
Drugs & Medication
While you should always follow your doctor's advice with a drugs and medication for Void Fear, we are generally not in favor of using pharmaceuticals and recommend an approach that tackles the root cause of the problem, whether or not you choose to work with us. Meds may seem to help in the short-term by temporarily improving your symptoms, but the problem is that they can never cure the core issue of the fearful patterns of thinking that are the automatic reaction to empty spaces and which trigger the intense feelings of fear.
No drug has ever been developed specifically for Void Fear, by the way – and with so many potential side effects, who wants to risk taking medication as a solution?
The good news is with our program, your Void Fear will be history, without resorting to meds..

Bekta Class War Cruiser
The Bekta is supposed to replace the Vor'cha attack cruiser in supplementing Negh'Var's in the assault role.
With weapons only marginally less powerful than the Negh'var and stronger shields (half the shielding power of a starbase) there is the case to be made that this is an outright replacement for the Negh'Var, rather than the Vorcha. I do think that as a replacement for the Vor'cha it's a little powerful.
Still, it's a good looking ship and while it is a powerful ships, it's also balanced by cost. Versus the stock ships, it's the most expensive Klingon ship at 600 Dilithium and 650 Metal. My recollection from my gaming days is that the Vorc'ha cost 180 Dilithium and 50 Metal and the Negh'var itself only cost around 400D and 100M. That being the case, it's possibly a little to expensive, even if it can stand up to a Negh'var.
Klingon Bekta Class War Cruiser

Original Mesh Textures: Achilles (for use with AoW)

Authors Notes:
* The poly count for these models stands at 1742.
* There are four 512x512 texture sets per model.
* Users of this file / ship will have to add it into the game themselves.
* There are no wireframes with this model, as I am thus far unsure how to create them properly.
* Build Buttons and An Admirals Log Image have been included, though game essentials (tech tree and such) have not been configured. Users unsure should consult the forums.
* Ask if you'd like to use this in a project. I'd rather people not assume they can do as they please.

Still, its a lovely ship and worth a download.
You must have thrown out more great ships from zero hour than are still left in the project, lol.
To the rest of you, I've got a few more ships to release yet, though they'll take time. I'm enjoying the sun too much at the moment. oh, and Avon, the name wasn't by choice. I've long since left the Transmission name (and Tycoon one) behind, just the network hasn't been updated with my current one.

EU-funded scientists unveil first ever image of a black hole
Categories: News
Tags: ERC | Event Horizon Telescope (EHT)
The first ever observation of a black hole was the result of the large scale international research collaboration Event Horizon Telescope (EHT), where EU-funded researchers have played a key role. This major scientific achievement marks a paradigm shift in our understanding of black holes, confirms the predictions of Albert Einstein's General Theory of Relativity and opens up new lines of enquiry into our universe. The first image of a black hole successfully captured was unveiled in six simultaneous press conferences across the globe on April 10.
Commissioner Carlos Moedas, responsible for Research, Science, and Innovation, said: "Fiction often inspires science, and black holes have long fueled our dreams and curiosity. Today, thanks to the contribution of European scientists, the existence of black holes is no longer just a theoretical concept. This amazing discovery proves again how working together with partners around the world can lead to achieving the unthinkable and moving the horizons of our knowledge."
President of the European Research Council (ERC), Professor Jean-Pierre Bourguignon, added: "I congratulate the scientists across the globe who made this inspiring discovery and pushed the frontiers of our knowledge. I'm especially glad to see that scientists funded by the European Research Council contributed decisively to this breakthrough. The EU's bold approach to funding such paradigm-shifting blue-sky research leads once more to a success story. It also further validates the ERC's objective to fund high-risk/high-gain research."
EU funding through the European Research Council (ERC) has provided crucial support to the EHT. In particular, the EU has provided funding for three of the leading scientists and their teams involved in the discovery, as well as supported the development and upgrading of the large telescope infrastructure essential to the success of the project.
Today's results add to the many achievements of the EU's research and innovation funding programmes Horizon 2020 and its predecessor Framework Programmes. Building on this success, the Commission has proposed Horizon Europe, the most ambitious EU programme yet to keep the EU at the forefront of global research and innovation.

For third year in a row, company named to Inc. 500 and second year being named a top company in the Inc. 500 Insurance category
In 2016 HealthCare.com was named to the list for the first time at position #388. In 2017 the company shot up to #148. This is also the third consecutive year that HealthCare.com has ranked in both the Inc. 5000 and Inc. 500. In addition, HealthCare.com is ranked a top 100 technology company by Deloitte.
HealthCare.com is a privately-owned search and comparison health insurance shopping engine that connects consumers with its network of licensed insurance brokers and insurance carriers. Since 2014 the company has helped more than 3 million individuals shop and find a health insurance plan.
In February 2018, HealthCare.com completed the acquisition of Pivot Health (PivotHealth.com) a fast-growing insurtech product development, management and marketing company of short term health insurance, supplemental insurance and fixed indemnity health plans.
"2017 was an important year for HealthCare.com as we continued to grow our core health insurance business, expanded our Medicare business, and added some key new pieces to our team. The past year positioned us well for the acquisition of Pivot Health in early 2018 as part of a broader transition from a pure comparison business. We're proud to be recognized for the substantial growth in our business, and excited for the continued value we are providing to consumers," said Howard Yeh, co-founder and chief executive officer of HealthCare.com.
"HealthCare.com's rapid growth indicates that consumers remain proactive in researching and buying affordable healthcare options," Yeh concluded.

The only way – in my view – to create 'clear energy spaces' is to create clear energy selves.
"I want you to know the profound affect/effect you have on my life. I learned so much about who I'm not and who I really am in your presence. And it's that presence I need to tell you about. You live your life so clean and clear that the energy space that you radiate allows others to step into that cleanliness and clarity. Thank you. Deep peace to you." – Judith Walters, "H.O.P.E. Retreat" Participant
Judith articulates exquisitely her awareness of clear energy – and how, when we as people are clear, we effect clarity and good-feeling around us.

One of the ways I bargain shop is via online. Aside from the multiply shops that I visit, I also love to shop at ebay. I have gotten a lot of good stuff. Recently, I bought 2 jackets for Php610.00 only inclusive of shipping. I got a J Crew black double-breasted jacket (the one i used for my biker look) and a dark blue Maris double-breasted coat (you will be seeing more of it here). And right now as I type this blog post, I am bidding on a Khaki double breasted pea coat. I hope I win :)
Just this afternoon after work, the item i bought at a multiply store finally arrived. It was delayed for a day but its ok. I was not in a rush anyway so I didn't bother informing the seller about it. I always use Xend as my courier since its cheaper. A half kilo package costs Php50.00 if within Metro Manila.
Going back, I orderd brown skinny jeans and red houndstooth shorts for Php149.00 each. My total bill including shipping= Php348.00. Pretty cheap, right? :)
I was as sort of confused if I'll get a red houndstooth shorts or a brown one. I opted for the red because I remember I can pair it with my red trench dress and black houndstooth tote bag. I haven't had the chance to take a photo of the whole ensemble but here's the photo of the bag.

What if DeMarcus Cousins had signed with the Celtics?
BOSTON — In an alternate universe, DeMarcus Cousins anchors the interior for the Celtics. He teams with Marcus Morris and five-time NBA All-Star Al Horford to form one of the league's most daunting frontcourts, hears chatter that Boston signing him was "unfair" and, on Saturday night, will host a Warriors team that nearly landed his services.
In July, little more than six months removed from sustaining a season-ending Achilles injury with the Pelicans, Cousins was at his offseason home in Las Vegas when he received only tepid interest, at best, in free agency. After a sleepless night, he turned to what he called his "last resort," phoned Warriors general manager Bob Myers and agreed to sign a one-year, $5.3 million deal with Golden State.
Hours later, NBA reporter Chris Haynes — then with ESPN — reported that Cousins' decision had come down to the Warriors and Celtics. The four-time All-Star, it appears, was intent on rehabbing his reputation and his torn left Achilles tendon on a contender.
Few can blame him. At age 28, Cousins is the best player in the league to have never played in a playoff game. The one time his team reached the postseason, last spring with New Orleans, Cousins was sidelined. After eight years being a No. 1 or, at worst, No. 2 option, he was ready to shed the burden of being a franchise player.
It's tricky to predict what would have happened had Cousins joined Boston instead of Golden State, but this much seems obvious: The Celtics, who are built to chase championships for years, would have cemented their status as the most talented team in the Eastern Conference.
In Cousins, Boston would have a supremely skilled, floor-spacing big man to pair with Horford, who, at 32, is beginning to see his production decline. An eight-man rotation of Cousins, Horford, Morris, Kyrie Irving, Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum, Gordon Hayward and Marcus Smart would be as difficult to defend as any lineup outside of the Warriors.
Even without Cousins, Boston might be Golden State's biggest championship threat. The Celtics are one of just four NBA teams ranked in the top 10 in both offensive and defensive rating. After an uneven first half of the season, they have finally settled into a rhythm, entering Saturday's clash with the Warriors at TD Garden on a five-game winning streak.
"A lot of talent, obviously," Cousins said of Boston. "Young team. Good mixture of young and veteran guys. Super talented. They play hard, and it'll be a battle."
Like Golden State, the Celtics could have offered Cousins the luxury of taking his time to recover from his Achilles injury without fear of dooming his team's playoffs chances. Boston, despite its early struggles, is just 5½ games behind Milwaukee for the East's top seed.
However, Cousins isn't one to ponder what-ifs. Those closest to him say he is the happiest he has been in years. With the Warriors, Cousins has found a team-oriented environment where he can play to his strengths and not be blamed for every loss.
"He really loves it there," DeMarcus' mother, Monique Cousins-Evans, said of her eldest son, who is averaging 13.0 points, 7.0 rebounds and 3.7 assists in just 20.3 minutes through three games with Golden State. "In the past, I think he got a little stressed being the one everyone expects to carry the team to a win. With the Warriors, he can just be one of the guys."

A realtor wears many hats in the industry. From salesperson to business manager, the agent seems to do it all in the buying experience. The vital role that realtors play in home buying is why selecting the right agent is important. Here are a few attributes that every good realtor possesses.
Problem-solving Skills
Real estate agents are met with a number of challenges and often must adapt to their clients' needs. Such needs poses a problem when sellers are not willing to oblige to requested changes. The agent needs to have a winning personality that navigates through misunderstandings. He or she also must use his communication skills to bring clients and sellers to a consensus.
One thing a realtor must never do is take the laid back approach. Your decision to invest in real property is a serious commitment that requires at least fifteen years of financial obligation. A good agent understands this and will stop at nothing to find you the home of your dreams. Many promise tenacity in their pitches, but the realtor who responds within an hour of receiving your question by email will truly work to earn your business.
Tech Savvy
He or she doesn't have to be a realtor by day and computer technician by night but he should know a thing or two about computers and apps. The best agents keep their clients' contacts and schedules on their smartphones and have access to the internet for up to date information. They are also more than willing to help you adjust to new avenues meant to make house hunting easier.
Anyone can talk a good game when everything is going well, but few realtors are honest with their clients even when it hurts. You want an agent who is among the few. He or she should learn enough about you to know when a home is out of your budget range and not be afraid to share his opinion when asked. An honest real estate agent will never place you in an income bracket beyond your means, nor will he withhold vital information about a potential home's upkeep even if it means losing a sale.
Caymus Realty Solutions is your alternative choice in home buying and selling. We pay cash for houses and accept homes regardless of their maintenance needs. Learn more about our buying process here.

For those of you that didn't already know, I have had a partial hysterectomy. I wanted to donate my uterus to science when it was removed, but no one was really that interested in it. Besides, the damn thing didn't work anymore.
I had always had the most enviable of periods of any woman I knew. They lasted two to three days, were very light and I never had cramps. I was also on a lunar cycle, which means that with every full moon, my period started like clockwork. I never took a single Midol and never planned my life out around my monthly cycle. All of my girlfriends hated me for that.
I knew all of that great Period Karma would eventually blow up in my face one day, and it sure did.
It started with bad cramps. Never having experienced these before, I was sure I was dying with something. It felt like someone was in there learning how to sword fight and not doing a great job of it. The stabbing, throbbing, cold sweat inducing pain was nearly unbearable. One of my friends told me that this is what labor felt like when you were having a baby. I told her that I felt like I was having an entire preschool of 2 year olds.
The cramps turned into periods so heavy that I swore there was a tiny village living in my uterus and they were all being slaughtered on a daily basis. It was a regular, irregular bloodbath. It reached a point when I wouldn't even leave the house and I was exhausted. My two to three days of light menstrual Flo had turned into Niagara Falls that lasted 2 weeks, and that's not including the Lady of the Mist Boat Tours.
I finally decided to complain to my doctor.
"Let's have a look!" she said to me. A few minutes later she announced, with some glee, "Well, it looks like you're going to have to have a hysterectomy!" She told me to get dressed and meet her in her office so we could discuss scheduling. I was in shock. She was awfully perky! She told me that she would be my surgeon and this was her favorite procedure.
That was comforting. <insert scowl here>
I sat in one of the plush chairs across the desk from her while she pulled out her planner, "Um Doc?" She looked up at me smiling. "Um, I am going to have to think about this before I schedule any surgery." She put down her pen and gave me a stern gaze, "What exactly do you have to think about?" I told her that I had to mull this over. I mean, this is one of my body parts and it's not like I can grow another one. That's when she told me that my uterus was only going to get worse, and it had to come out, but being the great doctor she is, she told me to take some time, but not too much, and think about it.
My uterus was enlarging. When you're pregnant, the uterus pushes outwards and becomes that adorable thing called the Baby Bump. Mine was pushing upwards and moving every other organ out of it's angry and out of control way. That, and it was producing more and more menstrual blood than the law allows.
It was misbehaving.
A few days later I spent the day feeling like I had to pee. It felt like the most extreme case of cystitis I had ever had in my life! I called her office, begging for a prescription and the doctor took my call right away, "I was afraid of this." Not exactly the words you want to hear your doctor say to you, especially when you're miserable already.
My uterus was now pushing on my bladder. My tiny little bladder was being crushed by the behemoth I had growing in my abdomen! The nerve that triggers letting you know when you need to evacuate your bladder was now triggered full time. The feeling of needing to pee was now a constant feeling, and that's just not good. I was frantic! "Can I just meet you in the Emergency Room in about an hour and you can perform an emergency hysterectomy on me today?!" I heard her chuckle, "So are you done thinking about having the surgery?" OMG! Yes I was done thinking about it! Who needs a uterus anyways?! "Well, I wish it could be that simple, but a hysterectomy is not elective or an emergency. How about we get together this week and pick a date?"
To eliminate any doubt that the problem I was having with my bladder was due to my uterus and not something else, I now had to see a Urologist. Tests ensued and I was tasked with peeing in a plastic hat and keeping a diary of the number of times I peed and how much pee went into the plastic hat. If you think I never left the house before, well now I never left it at all. Between the uterus and the bladder, I was being held captive.
Once I had recorded my urinal habits for a few days, they called me in to the office to sit on what I like to call, The Grand Urinal Throne. This is a contraption that is raised high with all kinds of bells and whistles attached. Warm water was sent into my bladder via a catheter and I was supposed to hold it until the technician told me to release it. Probes and wires were attached to my body, recording which muscles contracted, etc and the machine whirred and groaned while I tried to feel relaxed, like this is something I did everyday.
Once that testing was completed, I was led to a quiet exam room and told to lie down. Another nurse comes in and tells me, "Okay, we're just going to numb your urethra a bit with some novocaine so we can insert the camera and have a little look. This might pinch, but it makes sure you can't feel the camera when it goes in."
Yes, it did pinch getting a shot in my personal delicate area, but she lied about not being able to feel the camera going in. Oh! I felt it! I don't think my butt touched the table throughout the entire procedure! Oh! My! God!! That was worse than a cramp! The doctor whispered notes to the nurse, finally removed the camera and told me that yes indeed, the uterus was crushing my bladder.
So it was settled!
The uterus was being evicted! By now, I couldn't wait to be rid of it!
My next visit to my doctor was to make my surgical debut appointment, so I brought along my planner. We looked like two rock stars trying to plan a date that worked with both of our schedules. I was on medication for the triggered bladder, so that was only a minor annoyance now. But because this was a serious surgery, there were plans I had already made that I wanted to keep. My doctor totally got that. Man, I miss her!
"I've been doing some research and I'm thinking we could do it on this date and then I could be back at work a week later. What do you think of that?" I asked her. She stared at me before asking, "Exactly what makes you think you'll be going back to work in a week after the surgery?" I told her that according to my online sources, removing the uterus vaginally was less invasive and the recovery time was a lot shorter. She laughed. "Do you have any idea how large your uterus is right now? There is absolutely no way I would be able to pull that huge organ out through your vagina! Even if I pulled it out in pieces. It's humongous!"
Preparations the week of my surgery also included being waxed. If you read my blog on a regular basis, you might already know that shaving my pubic hair would be akin to pouring sulfuric acid on my vagina, so being shaved for this surgery was out of the question. My doctor took a skin scribe and marked a nice purple line for my waxing technician to follow when the hair was removed. When I saw the line, I was a bit distressed, "That's an awfully long line there!" The line stretched from one side of my pubic region to the other, much bigger than a C section for a baby. "Yes" she told me, "Now you have a better idea of just how large your uterus is."
I walked out of there that afternoon wondering how much lighter I was going to be once it was gone. Dam, I'd probably look like Twiggy if that skin scribe line was any indication.
Only my uterus was being removed. I would be keeping both of my ovaries, which were very healthy and I would also be keeping my cervix. Yes, keeping the cervix means I still have to have a PAP Smear, but my cervix (and I quote my doctor here) was as pristine and pretty as an eighteen year old's cervix. Ha!! Suck it people! My cervix is awesome!! 🙂
I would be out of commision, without even being able to drive or stand for long periods of time, for about 6 weeks.
I was not looking forward to that and most of my friends thought I was nuts to balk at being forced to take a 6 week break and do nothing but lay around reading magazines and eating bonbons. Um hello? I was having major surgery. It's not like I was going to Club Med. I was headed for Club Medicated.
The day of my surgery arrived and my doctor stopped in after donning her blue scrubs. She looked so adorable! We went over any last minute details and I worried that my allergies were acting up and I was having sneezing attacks. God forbid I sneezed while she was slicing and dicing down there in my nether world! She patted my hand and assured me that I would be out and under the great care of the Anesthesiologist. There would be no sneezing today!
My surgery was successful! She entered my hospital room and began her initial exam. I couldn't look. I can't even remember how many staples were down there, but my husband, who never gets the least bit queasy, stood behind the curtain they put up so I wouldn't have to look, with my doctor and discussed the whole surgery with her while she examined and cooed with pride over how neat the incision looked, "When I opened my surgical field that uterus popped right out of there like an ornery old pumpkin!" I groaned and my husband asked more questions. The uterus weighed in at 25 pounds! What's that? Like a second grader? And she informed me that my back would be feeling a whole lot better because she had to dig most of it out of my lower spine. Gee, that was not what I wanted to hear. Happy about less lower back pain, not happy to hear she had to dig stuff out of me. She tacked up my ovaries so they wouldn't fall on top of my bladder with age and instead of cutting horizontally through my abdominal muscles like most doctors do, she parted them down the middle like a curtain, going with the grain of the muscle, and then tacked them back together so they would heal faster.
She is an outstanding doctor and a skilled surgeon.
My husband was fascinated. He thought the whole thing was amazing. And in many ways I guess it is.
I was fortunate.
I didn't stay in the hospital for very long and sailed through my recovery. I don't even have a scar!! I'm not kidding! When I go to be waxed now, I had to show the technician where my scar is supposed to be. She had no idea!
Well, there ya have it. I thought telling my story about a scary surgery and making it sound a bit less scary, might set some folks minds at ease, should they ever be faced with the same circumstances. The key to a surgery having a good outcome is a positive outlook, a sense of humor, but most of all, having a doctor you trust, that you can talk to like a human being and that gets you for who you are and treats you like you are the only patient that matters to them on that day. That is the key right there…a great doctor.
I am forever indebted to the many great doctors I have had over the years. Because of them I remain healthy and proactive in my own healthcare.
Thank you.

A SCREENING of the first episode of BBC daytime drama Shakespeare & Hathaway — Private Investigators will be held in Stratford.
The BBC put 150 tickets for the screening at The Other Place on Friday, 9th February, up for grabs in a public ballot, all of which have now been snapped up.
The RSC venue is featured in the series, which was filmed in Stratford and around south Warwickshire last summer as Jo Joyner (Luella Shakespeare), Mark Benton (Frank Hathaway) investigated the fictional secrets of rural Warwickshire's residents.
The cast and producer Ella Kelly will take part in a question-and-answer session hosted by Midlands Today presenter Rebecca Wood.
The ten-part drama will be broadcast on BBC One from late February. Will Trotter, head of BBC Daytime Drama, said: "We're looking forward to seeing the audience reactions to the first episode.
"It's got a whodunit storyline with a brilliant introduction to the main characters, but leaves you with some questions which makes the audience want to come back for more!"

This post is waaaaaay overdue. I am, however, very excited to be blogging about this family. Last year when I photographed the Gregson family for their Christmas photos, I didn't get around to a blog post about them, like many of my shoots during that busy time of the year. Now, 8 long months later, I finally am!
Declan, the tiniest boy of the family will be one year old in September and when I received the party invite ( yes , Ashlea a.k.a. Mom, is that good) I knew it was time to bring back their pictures and show you fine subscribers.
Let me start off my introducing theses 3 cuties. We have Porter, the oldest and sweetest little boy I know. Porter is a born soccer player, lover of Star Wars, huge help with his baby brother, and his moms biggest fan. Porter will be in Kindergarten this August.
Next, is Liam. Now, Liam is your typical middle child. He loves to follow and do what his big brother does. He loves to do everything and anything that will push his Mom's buttons, but those baby blue eyes are his saving grace when it comes to getting in trouble. Liam also enjoys being a big brother, Star Wars, and has more energy then you can believe.
To complete this family, we have Declan. The happiest baby I have EVER met!! This boy came out of the womb smiling. Contrary to the photo above,(haha) he will laugh and smile at everything. Declan was a bit confused about my camera that day. I can only imagine what is going on in his little mind!? This boy is speed crawling everywhere now!
Now, we can't forget who made this gorgeous family….Mom and Dad, or as I call them, Ashlea and Chris. Ashlea and Chris have been married for 8 1/2 years but dated for 4 years. They originally lived in New Port Richey then moved to Brooksville, and now live Spring Hill. This family has 2 fur babies named Froggie and Lili . Froggie is a miniature pincher and Lili is a chihuahua min pin mix. These are the original babies before the kiddos.
I am very honored to know this family and love their company. Please enjoy a few more photos from their session.

Hindu Diversity
An individual who belongs to a particular faith tradition or sectarian movement within his faith may use outward signs, symbols and practices to reflect the ethos of that movement. Outer signs like clothing, or symbols marking the forehead, give a sense of identity, belonging, and offer a kind of comfort zone to the individual. This is not to say that external identity is the sole criterion of belonging to a particular faith tradition. At a deeper level, it is essentially the realisation that a particular system suits the spiritual needs of an individual. The ethos of the movement becomes the guiding principle in the way that individual lives his or her life. The need for external symbolism gradually diminishes as the individual makes greater spiritual progress.
Because Hinduism gives freedom to the individual to choose the belief system that suits him or her best, the Hindu religion accommodates a vast variety of perceptions and prescriptions for the spiritual journey. Diversity of ways reflects diversity of temperaments in Hindu society. This is the reason why Hinduism is the host of a vast variety of different sects and movements. The acceptance of diversity of approaches is inherent in the pluralistic tradition of Hinduism.
Hindus in the UK come from vastly varying backgrounds. They come from different parts of India and the world. The largest Hindu community migrated to the UK from East Africa. Many have come from the Caribbean or Sri Lanka. They speak different languages and observe varying religious customs. They bring with them a vast range of Hindu belief systems and practices. The interaction between these different groups is visible at many levels from education to social enterprise. Overall the relationship is warm and receptive to each other's ways. Different sectarian movements build their own temples or community halls. There is a preference to marry within their groups; this is more to do with convenience than discrimination. The world is now a much smaller place and we no longer have the luxury of living in our own exclusive framework of beliefs. We have to accommodate for and give equal recognition to those whose belief systems differ from ours. Unfortunately, a great deal of strife is caused in the name of religion because of the exclusivist agendas of each tradition. The idea of religious pluralism ingrained in Hindu thinking can be extended further to cultivate fruitful interfaith dialogue.
Hinduism challenges exclusivism of every kind including scientific as well as secular ones. Exclusivism promoted in the name of any religion amounts to claiming a monopoly on spirituality. The very act demolishes the potency of spirituality. Insistence on a secular world view too, is an imposition of exclusivism using a different guise.
The secular approach promoting good citizenship sits well with Hindu teachings.
