As slither refers to slithering which means limbless locomotion(movement) i think it would be appropriate to remove the legs and arms of slither as otherwise his name would not fit at all.

A good sun light was all I needed to take a few pictures of this new recipe I was reviewing the other day. I can't quite understand Colorado weather, and I find it difficult to predict. "Be prepared to have all seasons in one day", someone said to me, and I did not know what to think until I had experienced that myself.
Where are the 300 hundreds days of sun promised to all Colorado residents? I don't know, but one thing I know for sure is that good lighting is very important when I am trying to take food photos. Natural light is my preferred choice.
I started this blog in the beginning of this year and I was not even sure that I would be able to last a month. Blogging is a big commitment, and most beginner bloggers quit after 3 months of blogging. I don't want to be part of this statistic.
So, my motivation was simple, "work hard and reward yourself later", not really… these are the well balanced words of my husband. Mine would be more like that "work hard and reward yourself now" or buy the lighting equipment you need so you don't waste your time talking about the lack of light in your photos.
Travis, my husband, gives me wonderful advice. I dream, he lives in reality. I like easy and comfortable, he likes hard work. I was the spoiled Brazilian girl, he was the hard working boy delivering newspapers at the age of 8. His favorite word is learn, my favorite word is help. Delete is my favorite key on the computer, his is save.
What is this have to do with Banana Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies? Pretty much nothing, but since last week I have been checking the Weather Channel App constantly, looking at the sky and analyzing every single cloud. I started to feel a little compulsive and didn't like that so much.
Banana Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
Adapted by The Conscious Cuisine
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1/2 cup apple sauce
- 1 cup turbinado sugar
- 3 ripe medium bananas, mashed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 2 cups quick-cooking oats
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Have your oven temperature ready 350° and your baking sheets with parchment paper ready for baking. In a mixing bowl, combine the butter, apple sauce, and the turbinado sugar, beat using an electric mixer until creamy.
Add the bananas, eggs, and vanilla. Beat until smooth.
Gradually add the flour and baking soda.
Add to the batter the oats, and chocolate chips until incorporated.
Using two teaspoons, drop the dough onto the baking sheets.
Bake for 7 to 10 minutes or until golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
I had lots of cookies, about 5 to 6 dozens.
No, I didn't buy the amazing lighting equipment that I have been checking online. Fixing my frustration wasn't the solution. Surprisingly the sun did appear, stayed for much of the day, allowing me to finish the photos for this post.
Daniel, my youngest, happily told me he loved the scones!!! It looks like a cookie but tastes like a scone probably because it has less sweetness than the usual cookie made with regular sugar.
The turbinado sugar has larger crystals and it's less processed than granulated sugar. Turbinado sugar or raw sugar also has more moisture and less calories than regular sugar. Adding ripe bananas in this recipe will help to bring even more natural sweetness to this treat.
Will I make them again? Absolutely! Chef Neff from the Conscious Cuisine is the creator of amazing recipes and a strong believer in making satisfying, tasty and healthy dishes. Thanks to his recipe we can enjoy a healthy version of this classic.
By the end of the day I had yummy treats, and I was actually pleased with the amount of lighting for the photos. I love happy endings!
Did you ever experience frustration when working on a project? I would love to hear what happened and how it ended. Have a fantastic week!

Have a look very carefully at your 'silverware', if it is very shiny, resistant to scratches, and does not tarnish it is probably stainless steel. Silverware, true silverware that is, made out of silver does tarnish, goes black eventually.
The only metal that can be anodized to my knowledge is aluminum. Stainless steel can be 'passivated' by treatment with strong acid , and this is a bit similar to anodizing in that it creates a strong corrosion resistant film on the surface of the stainless steel just like anodizing creates a corrosion resistant film on the surface of aluminum.

Download (413Kb) | Preview |
We study how constrained fiscal policy can affect regional inflation and output in a two-region model of a monetary union with sticky prices and distortionary taxation. Both government expenditure and taxes can be used to stabilize regional variables; however, the best welfare outcome is obtained under constant taxes and constant regional inflations. With cooperation debt and deficit constraints reduce regional inflation variability, but the path of output is suboptimal. Under non-cooperation the opposite occurs due to a trade-off between taxation and inflation variability. Decentralized rules, rather than constraints, stabilize regional inflation and output. They imply more fiscal action for smaller union members.

By Larry Gavin Bordeaux Branch Library
Throughout my 28 years of married life I have been lucky enough to only have been unemployed three times. The first was after getting out of the military, the second was due to a budgetary layoff and the third time was after graduating college and changing my career from construction to librarian. Each time, I could have used the kind of job searching help that will be offered at the library's job fair Wednesday from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m., Headquarters Library, 300 Maiden Lane.
One of the first steps in making my decision to become a librarian was to discover new or different career paths. As you can see, I took that step seriously considering the major changes I made in my career. To help you uncover new job and career possibilities, representatives from East Carolina University, Fayetteville Technical Community College and PipelineNC (a BRAC task force-initiated Web-based job searching portal), will be on hand to share information.
The job fair will also target various professions including banking, manufacturing, sales, financial, technical, trade, information technology, and military along with federal and county governments. The broad range of professions is representative of the diversity of Cumberland County employment opportunities, skills and educational backgrounds. It also enhances BRAC's effort to support transition actions, increase the positive impact on the community and maximize the economic growth potential for the community.
Thinking back to the first resume I wrote when I embarked on my new career as a librarian, I didn't get much response from prospective employers. But, with the help of a resume writing class and the book "What Color is Your Parachute?'' by Richard Nelson Bolles, I started having more success. Getting that call for an interview was even more nerve-racking than filling out those tedious and time-consuming applications. So to help you with both, we will be addressing topics including resume building, job searching, interview tips and resume reviews.
Job searching is one of the most frustrating and humbling experiences a person has to endure. The Cumberland County Public Library & Information Center's Job Fair offers many resources to assist you in making your job search a success. Be sure to check out our website for a page dedicated to job and career information.
To learn more about the job fair and other library programs and services, visit www.cumberland.lib.nc.us, call 483-7727 or find us on facebook.

This is really a wooded hike parallel to the coast with occasional open areas where the trail edges closer and allows one to appreciate the coastline. Otherwise, one has to rely on short spur trails to the edge of the cliffs. Many of these views are average at best. The ones farther along the coast are better. The trail is... More
This was an amazingly scenic hike. I'm not sure why it is listed as being in Machias when it is actually in Cutler. I think this is one of the most beautiful areas in Maine and really offers a variety of gorgeous views. It's a long trip, and signage could be better. It is deceiving because it takes you much...

After getting a few recommendations from locals to check out the Cutler Bold Coast Trails, we decided to give it a go. We drove from Roque Bluffs, and it was a nice drive through scenic meadows, bridges with beautiful streams, and overall great scenery. The parking lot had ample space, with 2 large areas to park. There were also trail... More
Other than the Big Sur coast of California, this is as good as a Coastline gets. Lots of little harbors, lighthouses, wildlife, hiking, and small boats to take you on cruises of the area.

HIV Vaccine Programme
Programme Leaders: Dr Seph Borrow, Dr Lucy Dorrell, Prof Tomas Hanke, Prof Andrew McMichael, Prof Quentin Sattentau
The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV-1) currently infects approximately 40 million people, and the pandemic shown no sign of abating in the absence of a vaccine. There has been debate regarding whether an ideal HIV-1 vaccine would require an immune response focussed predominantly at the T cell or B cell compartment. Most researchers are now of the opinion that stimulation of both arms of the response would be optimal, with antibody responses aimed at preventing initial infection and CD8+ T cell responses present as a backup to control any infection that broke through the antibody barrier.
Both B cell and T cell fields have had their disappointments, with the gp20-based VaxGen phase-III trial showing no efficacy, and the Merck phase IIb test of concept trial stopped very recently prematurely because of lack of evidence for efficacy. These setbacks provide the backdrop to renewed efforts in both fields to enhance the vaccine antigens and adjuvants necessary to achieve some level of efficacy.
T cell-based vaccine strategies
Based at the Weatherall Institute for Molecular Medicine, this programme has two main phases: preclinical vaccine design and development and clinical trials.
Preclinical vaccine design
We are searching for novel vectors for genetic vaccines used in heterologous prime-boost regimens and designing novel HIV-1-derived immunogens, to which we aim to focus the vaccine-induced T cell responses. The vectors include plasmid DNA, attenuated viruses and attenuated bacteria. The immunogens are derived from individual clades or focus on conserved regions of the HIV-1 proteome.
Clinical trials
Phase I/IIa prophylactic and therapeutic clinical trials have been undertaken at various sites in order to evaluate safety and immunogenicity of some of the vaccine trategies that we have developed. These are ongoing.
B cell-based vaccine strategies
Based at the Sir William Dunn School of Pathology, this programme is funded by the Medical Research Council, The Wellcome Trust, The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and the International AIDS Vaccine Initiative. The programme has three main goals:
1. to design novel envelope glycoprotein (Env)-based antigens for eliciting HIV-1 neutralising antibodies
2. to discover and characterise novel adjuvants that are optimal for use with HIV-1 Env antigens for eliciting neutralising antibodies
3. to establish proof of principle that vaginal application of antigen-microbicide formulations can induce mucosal antibody responses to HIV-1
Design of novel envelope glycoprotein (Env)-based antigens
The only viral antigens relevant to design of HIV-1 vaccines aimed at eliciting neutralising antibodies are the Env glycoproteins. Early studies demonstated that the monomeric form of HIV-1 gp120 was both weakly immunogenic and a poor inducer of neutralising antibodies. Subsequent studies indicated that gp120 has evolved a range of highly effective immune evasion strategies preventing or reducing B cell recognition of conserved neutralisation epitopes. Subsequent studies have been aimed at engineering the env gene in order to produce recombinant proteins in which:
• Env is presented to the immune system as a trimer, to better represent the native Env viral spike
• The conserved receptor binding sites are constitutively exposed
• The neutralisation-irrelevant surfaces are masked
• The conformational flexibility of the glycoprotein is rigidified.
The Dunn School group has participated in the process of antigen modification and is currently following up a strategy of 'antigenic silencing' in which the neutralisation-irrelevant surfaces of the protein are immunologically silenced by addition of polymers such as polyethylene glycol or similar. It is hoped that this approach will focus the B cell response towards towards remaining exposed protein surfaces, corresponding to the conserved receptor binding sites. Further modifications include alteration of the glycans on Env to alter antigenicity and increase immunogenicity. This work is carried out in collaboration with G. Stuart-Jones at the Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medecine and Peter Kwong at the Vaccine Research Centre, National Institute of Health, USA.
Discovery of novel adjuvants for use with HIV-1 Env antigens
As with most other subunit vaccines, HIV-1 Env is relatively weakly immunogenic in its own right, requiring an adjuvant to elicit a potent immune response. Adjuvants currently licenced for use in man are limited to aluminium salts, virosomes, Novartis's MF59, and the GSK series of adjuvants. To date none of the adjuvants tested in small animal models has shown the potency required to elicit high-titre neutralising antibody responses to HIV-1.
The Dunn School group has been involved in adjuvant discovery, and has two candidates. One is the polycation PEI which is currently undergoing extensive preclinical evaluation, the other is a variant of polyacrylic acid, which is at an earlier stage of development. It is hoped that either or both of these new classes of adjuvant may be useful not only in HIV vaccine design but also for other vaccines in which high titre antibody responses are required.
Proof of principle for vaginal application of antigen-microbicide formulations
As part of a Bill and Melinda Gates and Wellcome Trust funded consortium, the Dunn School of Pathology group have been developing model systems for evaluating the use of combinations of vaginal microbicides and HIV-1 Env based antigens as mucosal vaccine formulations. We have developed two in vivo models for vaginal administration, and have demonstrated that combinations of Env and microbicide lead to higher titres of mucosal, Env-specific IgG and/or IgA than antigen alone. If successful, this strategy might lead to the first self-applied mucosal vaccine.

The US Consulate offers this service.
Also, there is a short list of 'Solicitors' here in Sydney who are also "certified" by the Consultate to give such a service.
They give you a US stamp notary. Then you need to get a certificate from the Consulate that that lawyer is legit.

Students support Relay for Life

Updated: March 1, 2013 6:29AM
When the Minooka High School National Honor Society sets out to accomplish something, it goes all out.
Whether it's collecting infant and children's clothing during the "Baby, It's Cold Outside" drive to benefit Lamb's Fold Shelter in Joliet or addressing illiteracy in America by reading to elementary school students in their Rock and Read program, NHS students use their leadership skills to reach out to the community in a big way.
Such was the case during the NHS's first mini Relay for Life on Jan. 20 to raise awareness and funds and educate the public about the many types of cancer people battle every day.
At the highest point, more than 200 people participated in the event, said Donna Engel, NHS adviser and instructional leader of science and music.
NHS students decorated the hallways of Central campus, with each one representing a type of cancer.
For instance, the white hallway represented lung cancer, yellow for bone cancer and pink for breast cancer.
Attached to the walls was information about the type of cancer, symptoms and treatments. But there were also words of hope written on those walls.
During the 12-hour event, students, staff and community members, representing cancer survivors, supporters and loved ones, walked the halls of the school and participated in fun relay events to raise money.
Two of Minooka High's own students, cancer survivors themselves, participated. Minooka High science teacher Sam Pavelka, who is battling Ewings Sarcoma, was there as well.
The Relay for Life is not just a walk to raise funds, said Engel, it's to educate the public, to celebrate the survivors and to remember those who have passed on.
Each relay event got participants to enjoy themselves and laugh in the face of cancer. Like piñatas to "take a strike at cancer," decorating cars and wearing them in a relay in support of the American Cancer Society's program that provides transportation to treatment, and wrestling to deflate huge blow-up alligators while blindfolded (I'm not sure the significance of the alligators, but it sounds like great fun).
Since Pavelka is a huge fan of the Chicago White Sox and Cubs Crosstown Classic, a hallway dedicated to him was decorated with bases and participants had to answer baseball trivia. They won stickers to put on the wall in support of their favorite team.
One entire lap around the school, a quarter mile, was a birthday lap to celebrate survivors.
All the money raised during the mini Relay for Life, nearly $13,000, will be pooled with Grundy County's full Relay for Life event June 1 in Morris. Some of the money raised will stay right in Grundy County, Engel said. The rest goes to the American Cancer's Society's fight to end cancer and support those who still battle it.
A Relay for Life always has two important components. The first is the survivors' walk in which cancer survivors take the first lap to celebrate their victory over cancer while cheered on by their supporters.
The other is the luminaria ceremony, held at the end in memory of those who have been lost to the disease.
When the survivors took that first lap at Minooka High, wearing T-shirts that read "I am Hope," they were met with applause and cheers as other participants lined the hallways cheering them on.
It was one of those moments that touches your heart and takes your breath away, Engel said.
During the luminaria ceremony, held in the cafetorium, each person held a glow stick. One by one 12 senior NHS members read a poem, one for each month of the year and what it means to lose someone you love to cancer. Following a poem, the glow stick was lit and dropped into one of many bags lining the steps to the stage.
As the names of those lost were read, supporters and survivors walk to the bags, lighted their own sticks and dropped them into the bags. Those same names will be read off at the Grundy County event in June.
Engel, who lost several family members to cancers, could only describe the events as" the most touching and moving" thing ever.

Most users do not need a license to operate this wireless microphone system. Nevertheless, operating this microphone system without a license is subject to certain restrictions: the system may not cause harmful interference; it must operate at a low power level (not in excess of 50 milliwatts); and it has no protection from interference received from any other device. Purchasers should also be aware that the FCC is currently evaluating use of wireless microphone systems, and these rules are subject to change. For more information, call the FCC at 1-888-CALL-FCC (TTY: 1-888-TELL-FCC) or visit the FCC's wireless microphone website at http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/wirelessmicrophones.
In-ear wireless monitoring system on a budget.
The AS-1800 Any Spot wireless personal monitor system consists of an AS-1800T transmitter along with 1 AS-1800R receiver 1 set of EB3 earbuds. These are Galaxy Audio's entry-level earbuds. and are appropriate for working bands. The AS-1800 system puts pro quality in-ear on-stage monitoring in the hands of bands and musicians who have to keep technical improvements within a reasonable budget.
One very important aspect of the AS-1800 System is the Mixed Mono feature. With Mixed Mono the performers can have their vocals in Input 1 and the band mix in Input 2 and adjust the volume of each independently to create their own personal mix, or you can send two different monitor mixes from the board so each performer can decide which mix they want to hear on their belt pack.
A lot has happened in professional sound reinforcement both in terms of front-of-house sound and in terms of what the performers hear. One of the most significant developments in the last decade has been the quality and affordability of in-ear systems. Attention to hearing protection and an awareness of the critical role on-stage monitoring plays in the quality of an entertainer's performance have been a driving force in the research and manufacturing at Galaxy Audio.

Posted November 15, 2012 on
AP on Fox
Mike D'Antoni circled the court two feet at a time, moving smoothly on crutches while his Los Angeles Lakers went through drills orchestrated by his assistant coach and brother, Dan.
Although D'Antoni's surgically replaced knee is slowing him down a bit, he couldn't wait any longer to get the Lakers rolling.
D'Antoni formally took over the Lakers on Thursday, four days after the slow-starting club hired him to replace Mike Brown. The former Knicks and Suns coach is still on crutches and pain medication, but knee surgery couldn't keep him away from the Lakers any longer.
Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak welcomed D'Antoni after practice at a news conference packed with dozens of media members. D'Antoni is likely to make his sideline debut Sunday night against Houston.
''I'm really happy to be here - excited,'' D'Antoni said. ''(We're) starting to put stuff in now. Might take a little bit, but Mitch has said, and I'm sure you guys know, we're built to win this year. This is not a five-year project. We have a window, and we're going to try to get through it.''
D'Antoni's affable charm immediately worked on the Lakers, who praised their new coach's demeanor during their first few hours together. The coach acknowledged few qualms about taking over the star-studded roster that got off to a 1-4 start to the season, speaking instead of the limitless possibilities of the Lakers' talent within his creative style of coaching.
D'Antoni said he rooted for Jerry West's Lakers while growing up in 1960s West Virginia, and he won't have any problem transferring his allegiances after trying to beat the Lakers for so many years in Phoenix. The coach also realizes his up-tempo style of play will mesh nicely with the Lakers' heritage under Magic Johnson - who has already criticized D'Antoni's hire.
''We would love to be able to play Showtime-type basketball,'' D'Antoni said. ''Now, they might have done it the best that you can do it. We would like to get some place close to that. I think that would be awesome.''
Los Angeles has gone 2-1 under interim coach Bernie Bickerstaff since Brown's firing, and D'Antoni indicated Bickerstaff is likely to run the team at home against Phoenix on Friday night.

Here is another episode of Perils for Pedestrians. This one talks about what is happening in Washington DC including the on again off again Purple Light Rail Line.
There is also a discussion with a representative from a county planning organization that covers the county that includes Charleston, South Carolina. One of the problems we face here in Salt Lake City is the lack of a metropolitan planning organization that provides more cohesive planning than the wide range of city planning agencies we currently have. While we do have the Wasatch Front Regional Council, it is not a primary planning organization for the area.
Finally there is an interview with a traffic engineer that gives some explanation on how pedestrian signals are timed and some of the terms used.

So Happy I Chose my Doctor - Southlake, TX
My breast and tummy were saggy, baggy and deflated...
- 3 Oct 2011
My breast and tummy were saggy, baggy and deflated. I worked out 4 times a week and saw no results in those areas. I am done with having children, so I was ready to have a nice body again.
I had my first child at 16, so I never had my bangin 20's. About a week after my surgery, my boyfriend was picking me up for lunch. I told him to come in, he said that he would just wait in the car. I thought to myself, "We'll see about that!" As soon as he pulled up, I opened the door in only boy shorts. Nothing else. (I live in a cul de sac, so it's pretty private) But of course he came RIGHT IN! LOL! I NEVER would have done that before, but now that Dr. Bogdan has given me my original body back, I feel like I could make a teenager cry because I look so good.
Great review?
I had the best experience with Dr. Bogdan! His staff is extremely professional, but also personal, friendly and funny. I had seen 4 other doctors before I chose him. He was the FIRST one to listen to me about what I wanted for my breasts. He was also very thorough in making sure that I understood the entire process: from the surgery to the recovery, which he explained throughout the healing process as well. I think that the most important thing that Dr. Bogdan did was give me my confidence back. My advice to the person considering Dr. Bogdan as their surgery is: USE HIM! You won't regret your decision!

Usher's stepson declared brain dead after accident
The 11-year-old stepson of hip hop star Usher has reportedly been declared brain dead following a jet ski accident over the weekend.

According to website TMZ, Kyle Glover, who is the son of the singer's ex-wife, Tameka Foster, has not experienced any brain activity since he was admitted to hospital on Saturday.
Kyle and a friend were reportedly floating in inner tubes while being pulled by a boat on Lake Lanier in Atlanta when they were hit by a man on a jet ski.
They were both airlifted to hospital.
Kyle was unresponsive when he was taken out of the water, while his friend, a 15-year-old girl, was treated for a cut on the head and a broken arm.
Both Usher and his ex-wife were present at the hospital.
The couple married in 2007, but divorced acrimoniously two years later.
They have two children together, Usher Raymond V, aged four, and three-year-old Naviyd.
Celebrity friends of the Oh My Gosh singer have tweeted their support.
Toni Braxton wrote: "My heart and prayers go out to @TamekaRaymond & @usherRaymondIV during this extremely difficult time."
The Department of Natural Resource in Atlanta is investigating the accident.
It plans to recreate what happened on the lake using special computer programmes to work out how fast the boat and the jet ski were going at the time of the accident.

ATLANTA — There was a lot of scowling during a health reform session at the Society for Human Resource Management's annual conference in Atlanta.
Kay Mooney, head of strategic development and products at Aetna, spoke Monday before a very packed session. The president's health care reform may be headed for extinction, but benefits managers at the expo weren't ready to dismiss it just yet, not when there are penalties still at stake.
While managers still don't know the fate of the Affordable Care Act, they're sure of one thing: it won't be affordable. And it won't be easy to factor in all the variables that come with managing a diverse work force — like employee wages and employment status. Clearly, the biggest groans were over the law's effort to expand coverage even if it's offered through an employer.
Take the full-time employee definition change, for example. Under health reform, FTE's are considered as employees who average 30 or more hours. Furthermore, after a waiting period, every new employee will need to be automatically enrolled in a plan.
On top of these mandates, those employers who offer rich benefits to attract top talent will be hit with an excise tax for high-cost policies. Employers will also have to ensure premiums aren't costing more than 9.5 percent of an employee's income for single coverage.
All of these efforts are likely to drive up benefits expenses for the sake of helping people access affordable and comprehensive coverage. There's a slight problem — employee situations are never the same. Some employers have a population of older workers; some fluctuate working hours; and some have higher turnover rates with relatively low-wage workers. Or maybe their industry in general is risky.
One HR manager I spoke with didn't seem to be concerned about understanding health care reform; If it survives, her health carrier will give her all the information she needs.
That's a good assumption, but if you haven't reached out to a consultant by now, you will before 2014, when things will really get interesting. According to Mooney, that's when the four pillars of change will happen for benefits managers — changed health insurance demographics, evolved affordability considerations, increased regulatory scrutiny and oversight, and a shift from risk selection to risk attraction.
This change will prompt many questions from employers: Should I continue to offer benefits? What do my employees want? Are they eligible for subsidies? Are they better off going to a health insurance exchange?
So many scenarios, so little time to waste.
Despite the uncertainty and frustration, Mooney says she's optimistic. This is the first time in her career with Aetna that she's felt empowered to make a real change in the way we receive health care — an encouraging statement from an actuary who's weighed all the risks of this intrusive law.
Like Mooney, I'm ready to move past the confusion and questions. Come Thursday, optimistic or appalled, at least we'll finally get a decision.

Title: | The structuring of diversity programmes at science councils in South Africa-Case Studies-Mintek |
Author: | Singh, Viloshnee |
Abstract: | The peaceful transition from apartheid to a democratised society is one of South Africa's most impressive achievements. The attainment of these achievements has placed enormous pressure on the country to "shift to a higher gear", i.e. increasing the number of players who contribute to the economic development of the country, thus building on its' political success (Thomas, 1996). The ability to become competitive in the global economy will be determined by the capacity to increase the pool of suitably qualified people and the willingness to accept, value and empower the human talent of all South Africans. |

For me this is the best foundation ever. I have 13 Rose Naturel. It has a great coverage and at the same time, leaves my skin looking noticeably better than before i used the foundation. It is also a very good skincare product with protection against the sun.
Izabela, Bulgaria
This product, well what can I say? The best foundation I have ever owned!!!! The texture is dreamy and it just glides onto your skin. It covers any and all flaws/imperfections but looks so natural!! I would personally say this is perfect for normal/dry skin but would suit oilier skins if a setting powder was put on top, although that would take away from the glow it leaves you with!

Morning ALL forkers, just thought i would start a new thread saying good morning to ALL gardeners where ever you may be located and to ask what are you going to be doing today ?
I don't know yet but it will start with fleece off and likely finish with fleece on ...
Probably going to sow a few more seed trays, and check on progress. Yesterday I noticed some of my viola seedlings were starting to develop thier first true leaves.
The heated propagator I made seems to be working well with a soil temperature of around the low 20's. It's brilliant to look at in the morning and see how many new seedlings have come through over night.
I'm also looking forward to checking the temperatures inside and outside my greenhouse overnight I just want to get a feel for the amount of frost protection in my greenhouse.
I have a couple of silvercrest digital thermometers designed for cars they have an inside thermometer with the display and an outside probe on a couple of meters of wire. The outside probe is great for monitoring soil temperature. They also record maximum and minimum temperatures which can be reset automatically daily or reset manually. The reset is at midnight so i set the clock out by 12 hours and to cap it off there is a frost alarm.
Heat is an interesting subject I was told by a nurseryman to open the vents a little to help protect plants from frost and that works because moisture in the air condenses and that gives off latent heat which has a warming effect in the green house by venting the drier air in the greenhouse is replaced by moist air from outside which then repeats the cycle.
Morning blackest, yes I'm afraid its seems that way
Good morning all - it's back to work this morning so I'll be gazing out of the window a lot at the birds on my feeders and planning for my retirement later this year
Hopefully some seed-sowing will be done at the weekend.
Morning Dove, have a nice day.
Morning Petal
First garden group meeting of the year today and I, with the help of one other member, am supposed to be demonstrating rose pruning as our Japanese hostess and several of the Asian ladies haven't a clue and one or two of the others need some pointers for ramblers and climbers. I suspect we'll be spending the rest of the morning indoors as the forecast is for very wet and windy stuff. Better than recent snows but not friendly for gardening.
G/morning all have a nice day
Morning clogherhead
Busy day then obelixx ?
Seems to have chucked it down last night, I'm sure the gods are out to stop me finishing this new raised bed area. Was hoping to get it finished, tramped and raked level ready for the raised beds on top, seems that won't be the case now Final prep on the greenhouse instead, then chucking in 6 or 7 trays of seeds I think.
Yes, because once the meeting finishes I have to drive from Brussels to Namur to help my daughter buy a bikini or full cozzie for her school trip to Italy this Easter and this evening I have to go and check on the Jazz/RnB class to see how they're getting on with theiir demos for the end of year show..
Ooohhh lots to do then obelixx, have a nice day
Morning Ben, busy then mate ?
Morning Verdun, dull here going up to 5 degree's today ..... WOW
Oh, great, an interesting new thread! Thanks, Brumbull, for starting it. Good morning, gardeners. Fat Club this morning (that's the one where we weigh, bemoan our wight and confess all, then eat cake - its held in a cafe) then a bit more mulching; then my son is visiting (from the other side of the country) and tonight we all go to Swansea Museum for an exhibition about Ewenny Pottery and a demonstration from the eighth generation potter, a family member of my husband's. Should be a lovely social day. Retirement has its moments!
Morning GG, have a lovely day then

Winter Fire Safety Tips
West Pierce Fire & Rescue, the United States Fire Administration, National Fire Protection Association, and Washington State Department of Health recommends these safety tips to prevent winter home fires:
Stay in the kitchen when you are frying, grilling, boiling, or broiling food. If you leave the kitchen for even a short period, turn off the stove.
Space heaters need space; keep anything that can burn at least three feet away from each heater.
Check electrical cords often and replace cracked or damaged electrical or extension cords. Do not try to repair them. Do not put any furniture, chairs, or heavy things on cords.
Never use your oven or stovetop to heat your home. They are not meant for this purpose and can be a fire hazard. Also, carbon monoxide (CO) gas from natural gas, propane, and other fuels can kill people and pets.
Do not put your live or cut Christmas tree up too early or leave it up for longer than two weeks. Keep the tree stand filled with water at all times.
Avoid using lighted candles. If you must use candles, place them in sturdy candleholders that wont burn. Put them in places that pets will not knock them over. Extinguish them before going to sleep or when you leave.
If you smoke, use only fire-safe cigarettes and smoke outside. Make sure they are out and not smoldering when you are done.
Winter fires are preventable. Everyone should find out what they need to know to prevent a tragedy and have a safe winter season.

I do a lot of jumping and ride at 2 barns I would only wear it to one due to trainer issues. I have been told by several judges that I have really good equitation and never let the horse get away with what they want to do.
I have been working at one of my old barns recently and the trainer there has some green ponies that I'm getting a chance to work with and do some jumping with, so I see some more falling in my future.
I want to know what you think of them. If I should get one. What are pros and cons, and do they really protect you?
