If you are a UK expatriate, normal UK life cover may not be your best option.
Local covers are available, but not if you want the policy in English or money paid into the UK.
What can be insured, how, the currency for payment of premiums and claims, the laws, the tax situation in the UK and the country you are living in, is a complex one which varies by country.
Using an international plan usually means you can choose to pay in £s or euros or the currency of the country you live in.
There is an increasing number of reputable UK companies that offer specialist cover.
We only list those that are either based in the UK or are a subsidiary of a UK insurer, and only companies that will deal direct with you.
Many international insurers or the international arms of UK insurers are primarily concerned with offshore investment bonds and life policies, but as we are not an investment advice site we only include companies that offer simple term life policies, ie those that pay out when you die during a pre-agreed period.
If you want life covers that include investment potential, then it is very risky to go direct to any insurer or any bank – specialist independent financial advice is vital.

Women Closer to Front Lines, Medical Positions Affected
- Categorized in: Department of Defense (DoD), June 2012, News
By Sandra Basu
WASHINGTON — Women already are fulfilling critical roles in the U.S. military, and new changes to DoD rules will allow women to officially serve even closer to the front lines in a variety of occupations, including medical positions.
"Women are contributing in unprecedented ways to the military's mission. Through their courage, sacrifice, patriotism and great skill, women have proven their ability to serve in an expanding number of roles on and off the battlefield," Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta said. "We will continue to open as many positions as possible to women so that anyone qualified to serve can have the opportunity to do so."
More than 14,000 new positions were opened to women in the U.S. military as a result of those policy changes, which take into account that battlefields today are not as clearly defined as they might have been during past conflicts.
U.S. Army Deputy Surgeon General Maj. Gen. Richard Stone pinned Sgt. Whitney Longwell, currently deployed with 4th Squadron, 73rd Cavalry Regiment, with the combat medical badge April 18. Longwell is currently deployed with 4th Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division. Photo by Capt. Addie Randolph. |
For example, DoD will no longer restrict women from positions required to be co-located with ground-combat units. In a statement, military officials explained that "because the modern-day battlefield is nonlinear and fluid, with no clearly defined front line or safer rear area, combat-support operations are dispersed throughout the battlespace.
Removal of the co-location exclusion will result in 13,139 Army positions being opened to women, in specialties such as tank mechanic and field artillery radar operator."
While women will continue to be barred from serving as infantry, armor and special operations forces, the most dangerous combat jobs, they will be allowed to perform their current occupations closer to battlefields — at the battalion level instead of the brigade level.
"The Army, Marines and Navy have been granted exceptions to policy to allow select positions at the battalion level in specialties already open to women, opening 1,186 additional positions. These exceptions to policy will help the services assess the suitability and relevance of the direct ground combat unit assignment prohibition, and inform future policy decisions," DoD officials explained in a statement.
Medical Positions
Hank Minitrez, chief of public affairs for the Army Deputy Chief of Staff for Personnel, told U.S. Medicine that all Army medical Military Occupational Specialties (MOS) traditionally have been open to both women and men. In terms of assignment or co-location with direct combat units, however, there were specific positions in units previously closed to women who held the rank of MOS 68W or Health Care Sergeant/Health Care Platoon sergeant (Staff Sgt. and Sgt. 1st. Class, respectively).
Noting that the changes would go into effect in mid-May and undergo a six-month assessment period, Minitrez said in a statement, "They'll perform their job as they have already been trained. The only difference is at what unit level they'll be serving, down to battalion level at direct combat units, whereas before it was no lower than brigade level."
Comments (1)
"The DoD's report also listed Army officer positions newly opened to women at the battalion level, including field surgeon or medical-platoon leader, physician's assistant and medical-operations officer."
Please note, a Physician Assistant [PA] does not exclusively 'assist' a physician and his/her title [Physician Assistant] does reflect an autonomous professional position absent of the possessive apostrophe ['s] at the end of physician.

Undefeated x Nike Dunk High & Hyperdunk 2012 "Bring Back Pack"
February 6th, 2013 by Brendan Dunne | 8 comments
The UNDFTD x Nike 'Bringback Pack' is probably the single most unexpected release to register in the massive sneaker weekend that is ahead of us. The two sneaker set very literally brings back the UNDFTD x Nike Dunk High white/gum pair from 2001, doing so via the standard Dunk High silhouette and via more contemporary means on the Nike Hyperdunk 2012. Check out the latest look at both Undefeated pairs after the jump, and let us know what you think of this rare occurrence of Nike cranking out a collab model on such a modern performance sneaker.

text: Home World U.K. Election Raises Black Identity Issue Black Brits pressure political parties to tackle discrimination and poverty. By: Belinda Otas Posted: May 5 2010 12:05 PM 0 10 Downing Street, the United Kingdom's 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue (Getty Images) LONDON--At the recent Black Britain Decides rally, the first of its kind in the British history, representatives of Great Britain's leading political parties--Labour, Conservative and Liberal Democrat--made an unprecedented pitch to convince black Britons why their parties and policies would best serve their needs. They also felt the impassioned anger, dissatisfaction and disaffection of the audience, who came fully prepared to bare their grievances. George Osborne, a senior member of the Conservative Party, found himself facing a hostile audience before he had even spoken a word. He likened the rowdiness to what you would normally get at Parliament, Britain's seat of government, saying, "This is even more lively than the House of Commons." The rally was organized by Operation Black Vote (OBV), a non-partisan organization founded in 1996. One of OBV's key objectives this year is to get black voters to influence the outcome of the May 6 general elections. Experts estimate that the black vote holds the balance of power in 100 constituencies across the United Kingdom, giving black Britain the political leverage to determine who moves into 10 Downing Street, the U.K.'s equivalent of the White House. Simon Woolley, one of the founding members and national co-ordinator of Operation Black Vote, gave an impassionate opening speech, which ended on the note that Black Britain was no longer asking but demanding to be heard. However, that was after he had listed some of the main challenges faced by the black British and ethnic minority communities. In a recent interview with The Guardian newspaper, Woolley ticked off those issues as, "race, inequality within education, within unemployment and the criminal justice system." Black Britons have great political and economic potential. While blacks have been present in Britain since colonial times, massive migration is symbolically traced to 1948, when the first large group of Afro-Caribbeans arrived on the ship Empire Windrush. Since then, Britain has experienced waves of migration from Africa and the West Indies, and the black British community is made up of both groups. According to the 2001 census, 2.3 per cent of the 60 million people in England and Wales were black and 45 percent of all blacks lived in London. With 43 black candidates running, this election could result in the highest number of black members of Parliament elected at one time since 1987, when four won office. (Until Gordon Brown dissolved Parliament for new elections recently, there were 15 black members of Parliament.) Britain's blacks spend 10 billion pounds ($15 billion) in the economy annually. However, there are those who believe black Britain still has work to do. "The black community is a sleeping giant that needs to be awoken," says Ashok Viswanathan, founding member and deputy co-ordinator of Operation Black Vote. "Socially and culturally, I would say we have made huge contributions to the lifeblood and character of the U.K." But he complains that more than 1 in 4 blacks are not registered to vote and that 40 percent of those who are registered don't go to the polls. On the bright side, some black Britons have made major achievements in politics to business, and in arts and entertainment, black Britons are gaining recognition. David Lammy, a member of Parliament, was in Prime Minister Gordon Brown's cabinet. Kanya King is founder of the Music of Black Origin Awards (MOBOs), now in its 15th year and regarded as one of the biggest black music events in the world. Baroness Scotland, who has served as the United Kingdom's attorney general since 2007, is the first woman to occupy that position. Tidjane Thiam, the Ivory Coast-born chief executive of Prudential, Britain's second-largest insurance company, is the first black CEO of a top company in the United Kingdom. He was recently recognized by Time magazine as one of the world's most influential people. He says that for the majority, to be black in Britain means "to be poor, low-paid, unemployed and overqualified." Eighty percent of blacks work in the public sector and private sector discrimination remains unchanged. "We are not making inroads within the private sector that we ought to be making," says Jasper. "We are much more marginalized as a community with the huge attack from the right wing on the concept of multiculturalism and diversity." It remains to be seen how the policies of the winning party will address other issues that affect the black British community. Party manifestos lack a coherent argument as to how they will deal with some of the biggest challenges that plague Britain's ethnic minorities, including blacks, despite the fact that they use the mantra of promoting multiculturalism and a cohesive society. The Liberal Democrats promise to end race discrimination for job seekers by having anonymous job applications. The Labour Party is promising an Australian-style, points-based system on immigration and faster action on anti-social behavior, an issue, which also affects the black British community especially with the number of black children excluded from school at a young age. The Conservative Party is promising a tough stance on poverty and to pay great attention to social issues within local communities. Page 1 of 4 NEXT PAGE > Powered by Livefyre

By Jamie Dupree
The House is poised to approve a spending bill for next year that cuts the budget of Congress by over 6 percent, as lawmakers try to show the voters back home that they understand the need for belt tightening in the halls of Congress.
"Wasting taxpayer dollars sends the wrong message to the American public," said Rep. Richard Hanna (R-NY), who won an amendment Thursday night to limit spending by members of the House on vehicle leases.
Last month, I detailed how a number of members in both parties were spending big money each month from their office accounts to lease vehicles for official business.
This plan from Hanna would say that no more than $1,000 could be spent each month; that would probably crimp the current spending of about 10 members of Congress according to the latest expense reports from the House of Representatives.
My numbers show these lawmakers with auto leases of $1,000 or more:
Del. Pedro Pierlusi (D-Puerto Rico) $1,400/month
Rep. Dennis Rehberg (R-Montana) $1,299.98
Rep. Ed Towns (D-New York) $1,285.06
Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. (D-Illinois) $1,258.76
Rep. John Conyers (D-Michigan) $1,251.66
Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) $1,139.26
Rep. G.K. Butterfield (D-NC) $1,129.82
Rep. Bobby Rush (D-Illinois) $1,027.53
Rep. Chip Cravaack (R-Minnesota) $1,000.00
Rep. Randy Neugebauer (R-Texas) $1,000.00
As the House finishes work today on this budget bill for the Legislative Branch, there will be one very closely watched vote dealing with an ethics watchdog office that was created several years ago to help the Ethics Committee review possible cases.
The Office of Congressional Ethics though could be in for a big budget hit, as members of both parties feel the new ethics office has overstepped its bounds and stepped on toes in both parties.
Rep. Mel Watt (D-NC) wants to cut funding for the OCE by 40% ($619,200), and he'll get a vote on that Friday morning.
One final interesting note about this bill is that certain amendments were not allowed for consideration on the House floor by the Rules Committee, because of a misconception about this bill.
Rep. Anne Marie Buerkle (R-NY), a newly elected member, had offered amendments to do away with money for the Senate Majority Leader's office, the Senate Budget Committee and more - but none of her amendments were ruled in order.
That's because of the way this bill is organized - the House starts off by adding in money for all operations of the Legislative Branch - except for the Senate.
By custom, Senators add in their own money to this budget bill later on.
As a freshman, Buerkle evidently didn't know that, so she had no idea that her amendments to trim money from Senate operations weren't even germane at that point.
It reminds me of years ago when a group of freshmen Republicans held a news conference to denounce the big spending by Congress on their own budget.
The group cited how the Congressional budget bill started in the House at one figure and then doubled after going to the Senate.
At the end of the news conference, I took one of the members aside and explained to him that when the House approves that bill, it includes only the money for the House.
Then, I explained, Senators add in money for their operations - that's why it more than doubled.
I do remember that it drew me a quizzical look. But when you've been around for a few years, you pick up a few things along the way.

Bullet For My Valentine cite their main objective as writing rock songs the way rock songs used to be written. Aspiring to a love of acts such as Iron Maiden and Metallica, and an equal hatred of indie-rock, the South-Wales group have enjoyed an upward curve perpetrating their own brand of anthemic rock ballads.

Online Reservations
Fantastic brunch! Exceptional food, service, and value for the neighborhood. Considering what a wonderful experience we had here, in addition to the fact that HG takes credit cards AND reservations for weekend brunch (again, alien to this neighborhood!), we will be coming back often! Can't wait to try the dinner menu...
Went for brunch on a Saturday with my husband. Had a reservation, but no need...it wasn't crowded at all. The service was friendly & attentive. The chicken & waffles were very good, crispy, not greasy although perhaps the chicken was a touch overdone. Better slightly over then under though! The banana French toast was very good as well. Light, flavorful & not too eggy. We also had a Bellini (pear) & a jalapeño Bloody Mary. Both were tasty. Found out the kitchen is open till 4am. We would go back.
Went with friend for BRUNCH and was blown away by food. Mini doughnuts were warm, moist & relish. Chicken & Waffles were excellent and Mambo sauce was so good I asked for one to go! Fritatta was also great! Drinks were creative, fun & super yummy. I had 3 Bloody Mary's w/Jalepeno infused vodka and wanted to keep on going! Prices very reasonable for NYC and loved the ambience. Will definitely go back again….and again…and again. Manager, hostesses were friendly and engaging!

The Top 7 finalists embarked on a "new beginning" Wednesday night, with each contestant singing two songs from "Now & Then": a #1 hit from 2001 to the present and a second soul song from back in the day.
Ryan opened the show by paying tribute to his "dear friend," TV pioneer Dick Clark, who died Wednesday of a heart attack at age 82. "Without him, a show like this would not exist," Ryan said.
Hollie started the show with Adele's "Rolling in the Deep," and Jimmy said she seemed "looser," with "more feeling" in rehearsal. "When you hit the stage you're slightly robotic," he warned. The judges thought she pulled it off.
"You finally did what all of America was waiting for you to do — you finally came out of your shell, you ruffled your feathers a little," Steven said. "I can't judge you, it was perfect." Jennifer raved, "I am so happy right now. When we say, 'no thinking,' that's what you did. You forgot about everything, you sang that song, you felt every word, you did it!" Randy was a little more restrained in his praise. "I'm not gonna say it was perfect, but it was close to perfect. A couple of notes were pitchy," he said, adding, "What I loved, for the first time ever, I felt you had feeling, you had emotion. Hollie, very well done."
Colton took on Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance," and Jimmy warned him to "hit a high when the chorus comes up." He did just that, and the judges enjoyed it.
"We were just at the Colton Dixon concert right there, you were so in the zone, Randy said. "I don't know if it was your greatest performance, maybe the key felt low. But, dude, job well done." Jennifer called it an "exciting performance," noting that some parts were "a tiny bit low," but she said Colton has so much character that "even in those parts it didn't matter." Steven said he understands that "you gotta get low to get high," adding, "I'm not sure what I loved more, your outfit, your band, or this set on Idol."
Elise was in the bottom again last week (Jimmy quipped that she has "a vacation home in the bottom three"), but he has an explanation for why she "feels like the underdog." He told her, "Other contestants are riding waves of fandom — you're like Etch a Sketch, a clean slate every week." He then added, "She can't afford to slip at all."
Elise sang "No One" by Alicia Keys, and Jennifer said she got her first goosies of the night during the performance. "When you're feeling it, your eyes come alive," Jennifer told her. "I would love to see you do more of that." Steven wasn't crazy about Elise's song choice. "You have such a beautiful voice for a better chorus, but you sang your little tushie off tonight. It was delish, it was good," he said. Randy added, "Yo, listen, you definitely have a strong voice . . . I was happy you stayed with the melody for a change. It was a great lesson in restraint for you, and I love that as you grow in the competition. I think it was very good."
Phillip chose to sing Usher's "You Got It Bad," and Jimmy urged him to just "keep doing what you're doing." He said that Phillip may even pick up some new fans with the R&B song. In the end, Phillip got a standing ovation.
"With you, we never know what we're gonna get," Steven said. "I feel like a chump up here — you fool us all the way down the line. You got melody now, the band was great, it was great tonight, dude." Jennifer swooned over Phillip's performance: "That was so sexy. That was great just to take that song and do what you did to it. I love when you show that side of you. It shows your versatility, it shows a great singer can sing any song." Randy was also a fan, saying, "I love it that this year we have a true artist on the stage. Every time he comes up, he tries to be original and, most importantly, he tries to be himself."
Jessica, meanwhile, was singing for redemption after the judges saved her from elimination last week. "Jessica doesn't deserve to be in the bottom three if she sang 'Yankee Doodle Dandy,'" Jimmy said. "Now Jessica has to save herself."
She chose to perform Alicia Keys' "Fallin'," and Steven loved how she got "mad" at the song. "That was the passion that you released; everybody in America knows how you can sing if they didn't know before," he said. Jennifer noted that 16-year-old Jessica is "just a little baby," but "the way you play with songs, it's crazy." She also said she was glad they used the save on Jessica. And Randy said it was "brilliant" again.
Skylar's been on a hot streak lately, but Jimmy said that "she has to come to this thing with a little bit of attitude, like, 'I can win this.'" Skylar chose to perform a country take of Lady Gaga's "Born This Way," and Jennifer loved it.
"Oh my God, I love that version," Jennifer said. "You are such a fighter. Amazing, it was perfect for you again, three weeks in a row." Steven also praised Skylar's performance. "I'm so glad you were born that way," he told her. "You're giving all the other girls in the competition a run for their money. A lot of people vote country Western, and you're so beautiful and you cross paths." Randy agreed that Skylar has crossover appeal. "To hear you sing, that you put your own spin on it, you are so beyond ready — to me that was amazing," Randy said.
Joshua, who was in the bottom three last week, chose to sing Fantasia's "I Believe," and Jimmy said he's "got a little bit of the deer in the headlights right now," urging him to figure out why he's not connecting with the audience. Nevertheless, Joshua earned a standing ovation.
"I love that you picked a song that you believe in," Randy said. "None of us could believe that bottom three . . . hopefully America shows up for you tonight. You are truly one of the most gifted singers that we've ever seen on this show. You pulled back with that song, restrained yourself, because the feeling in the lyric meant something to you, and it touched us. And that's the mark of true growth. I love you, love your voice, well done." Jennifer gushed, "You leave it all on the stage every time, you give America all of you. It's amazing to watch. I really feel blessed that you're this competition and we get to watch you. It's beautiful." Steven said that Joshua's performance could be a "stepping stone to you winning this whole thing," adding, "You could sing the phone book, and you're so good at it, man."
Time for round two! After a message from Liverpool's "football" team wishing Hollie good luck, the contestants got ready to sing classic songs inspired by "Soul Train." Hollie kicked things off with "Son of a Preacher Man," and the judges enjoyed it.
"You dug in for the last note . . . you were like, 'Yo, I will not be outdone on this show,'" Randy said. "That was crazy ... I was little worried you were doing this song, but you worked it out." Jennifer told Hollie, "This one was better even than the first time, and you did really great then. I think you're showing a new composure, and it really suits you." Steven added, "I see it too, I hear it, and I still think you can push it even more. You got the voice, got the vehicle. Take it, push it over the top!"
Colton sang Earth, Wind & Fire's "September," and it wasn't a hit with the judges. "I love your voice, you know that," Steven told him. "This is the point in the competition where you have to find the just right song to show off your voice. I think your voice is a lot more powerful than that." Jennifer said, "You made it your own, but it's really about finding perfect songs that fit into who you are. I'm not sure it was the perfect performance." Randy agreed, saying, "It wasn't the perfect song to do that with . . . not as exciting as we would have liked."
Elise performed "Let's Get It On," and the judges also wanted her to push a little bit more. "You always sound so good," Jennifer said. "You don't like to show emotion too much; it does come out when you sing. I'd like to see even more of that." Steven told Elise that she needs to do more: "That song showed your versatility, you broke a few more hearts . . . you need to take it up a notch, you gotta find those few songs that will win America's heart." Randy agreed, telling Elise, "You definitely gotta show the emotion. That song choice wasn't really right for your voice."
Phillip sang "In the Midnight Hour," and once again, he was a hit with the judges. "You take your time, let the song breathe, feel emotion every time," Randy told him. "I don't think you know how to do it another way. That to me is what makes you who you are, and I love it." Jennifer praised his "feeling and the soul," and Steven called the performance "brilliantly awkward and beautiful," adding, "I love your character."
Jessica performed Otis Redding's "Try a Little Tenderness," and the judges were impressed as usual. "God almighty bless my soul, you've done it again!" Steven told her. "I like the fact that you're stepping out. It's all about stepping out and winning these people's hearts." Jennifer said she liked how Jessica got a little bit of her alter ego BB Chez in there, but she added that Jessica has to start "connecting." "Just the voice is not gonna do it," she told her. Randy agreed, saying, "Where you grow is connecting emotion with the lyric. You can sing like nobody's business."
For her second song, Skylar picked "I Heard It Through the Grapevine," and the judges got a kick out of her performance. "You and Phillip have no problem connecting and feeling," Randy said. "You just come out and do what you do. Every time you come on stage, it's a Skylar Laine rock 'n' roll country party. Skylar Laine's got a brand — she wants it!" Jennifer said that she loved Skylar's "spunkiness," and Steven compared her to "a wild horse who refuses to be tamed."
Finally, Joshua closed the show with Sam Cooke's civil rights anthem, "A Change is Gonna Come," and he received the second standing ovation of the night. "You have stretched your voice to the limits of soul," Steven raved. "Your voice just climbs inside of everybody and changes them for that moment." Jennifer liked how he left her wanting more at the end. "Please, America, don't send this boy home!" she begged. "What a perfect song for you," Randy told Joshua. "You took your time, you let it marinate, and then you burst it open at the end. It was just stellar . . . I think the talent this season on Idol is better than any show on TV, period!"
Asked how he hoped America would vote, Randy replied, "We don't want any of them to go." Will your favorite make the cut? You'll find out Thursday night, when Ryan reveals how America voted, and Kris Allen and LMFAO perform!

Ok guys first I just wanna thank PES for giving me a sneak peek at their new Pre workout product Enhanced. Now I got 2 samples and took the first of the two earlier today about 30 mins before hitting the gym. I can tell you that there isnt any beta alanine in it because I didnt get any tingles but that seems to be the case with the latest ones coming out on the market and theres really nothing to be upset about because it doesnt need it. If your butt hurt over it then just add some BA powder to it yourself haha.
First thing I noticed was that it hit me almost instantly. After literally 2 minutes I felt it slap me right in the face. A huge rush came over me and I was ready to toss around some weight. Another thing I noticed was the significant pump I got from it which leads me to believe there has to be a quality form of agmatine in it or at least thats what Im thinking. Lastly, although it hit me hard when I first dosed it I wasnt going nuts or freaking out but it just gave me solid energy through the end of my workout where I was still shaking from the effects while I was walking out of the gym. Ridiculousness in a tub.
If anyone else got samples chime in on this. Im curious as to what you think as well as the reps etc.
Shout out to natty for giving me the idea. Thanks bro.

The SPI Bioplastics Council is hosting a webinar which challenges the widely held perception that the biobased plastics industry is inextricably linked to and dependent on the emergence of a robust biorefining industry. The webinar will:
�Address important differences between today's world v. years ago when the petrochemicals industry was linked to and dependent on a petroleum refining industry whose major target was fuels.
�Examine these differences from several angles and the implications which could enable biobased plastics to grow independently of biofuels.
�Address the concept that a commercially viable scale for biobased plastics can be much smaller than a commercially viable scale for biofuels.
�Discuss economic, societal and environmental challenges as the biobased plastics industry develops.
�Provide an overview of industry-driven efforts to navigate toward a future with a more sustainable biobased plastics industry.
Plastics News' experts discuss trends impacting the recycling of plastic materials analyzing market conditions, opportunities, threats, regulatory activity, and sustainability trends' impact on supply. View analysis of leading recyclers, resin price and production trends, and recycling rates as well as perspectives from industry thought leaders regarding market trends.

By Ariel Schwartz
Malaria. Swine Flu. E.Coli. HIV. These are just some of the potentially fatal diseases that bedevil the human race. But in their own twisted way, they can be breathtaking.
Artist Luke Jerram's glass microbiology sculptures--a series of diseases rendered in blown glass--look to the untrained eye like abstract balls filled with a dizzying array of spikes and tendrils. They're actually interpretations of a number of diseases (they're not exactly to scale), created after lengthy consultation with virologists, disease models, and images.
Jerram's work has entranced scientists over the years. A 2009 piece from The Lancet Infectious Diseases describes the sculptures with a sense of amazement:
A palm-sized avian influenza virus is presented on a plinth with a magnifying glass for closer inspection. Like a unique paperweight, its intricate antigenic spikes extend like soft peaks. Nearby, the 10 cm HIV bubble-like structure encases a Christmas-tree-shaped capsid. Like a snow globe, you almost want to hold it in your hand and shake it.
Has anyone ever before described bird flu or HIV with such odd affection? The sculptures are more than a little unsettling to one New York Times writer, who complains: "I've watched people dying of these things now rendered as $10,000 paperweights. There's something unseemly about celebrating the beauty in something that does such ugly things--in a way that I don't feel when Steuben does it to a snail."
But the sculptures also serve an educational purpose (they are a whole lot more exciting than images in a research paper) and they're a clever conversation starter. There is also something distinctly human about trying to see the beauty in even the ugliest things. And there's no question about that: these sculptures are beautiful.
Jerram's sculptures go on display February 1st at the National Centre for Craft and Design in the U.K.

Open House 2013...Our Animal Connections
We share more with animals than we may know.
Animals touch our daily lives from the food we eat, the products we consume, the health care advances we benefit from, and the services, entertainment, and companionship we enjoy. Wildlife species add to the beauty and wonder of our world. The connection between wildlife, domestic animals, the environment, and humans is called "One Health" and this concept is the foundation for veterinary medicine.
The 2013 Open House, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on April 27, will explore the One Health concept with special exhibits and discussions on the connection between animals, the environment, and people. The popular annual event also will offer the traditional opportunities to get up close with various animals large and small, special canine demonstrations and displays, and chances to talk with faculty and students. Fun and informative tour stops explain advances in veterinary medicine, veterinary medical technology, best care practices for the family pet, and what it takes to become a veterinarian.
Tour stops popular with younger visitors
- The Teddy Bear Suture Clinic, where children are encouraged to bring injured stuffed animals for appropriate attention by the CVM student surgery club;
- Anatomy lab, where the skeletons of various animals, birds, and reptiles can be examined;
- "Up Close" stop with birds, rabbits, hamsters, snakes, turtles, lizards, insects and other animals;
- Mare and foal in the Teaching Animal Unit corral;
- Opportunity for children to try their hand at milking a very patient cow;
- Open House Carnival for young children (child needs to be accompanied by a parent or guardian and there is a small fee to play games).
Veterinary Health Complex
Terry Center. The Open House is an opportunity to tour portions of the 110,000-square-foot Randall B. Terry, Jr. Companion Animal Veterinary Medical Center, one of the most advanced veterinary hospitals in the nation. (See video).
Veterinary Health and Wellness Center. Exhibits including Nutrition, Rehabilitation and Mobility Service, Behavior Medicine, Small Animal Blood Bank, and Exotic Animal Medicine.
Equine and Farm Animal Veterinary Center. The breezeway in the Equine and Large Animal Veterinary Center will include exhibits and farm animals.
Outdoor attractions
The Open House flows over to external attractions including the CVM Mobile Surgery Unit--a veterinary clinic on wheels; canine demonstrations; booths staffed by representatives of breed and shelter rescue groups; Mare and foal in the Teaching Animal Unit corral, safe animal herding demonstrations, and the Open House Carnival organized by DVM students. (Inclement weather may change outdoor activities).
Note: There is no charge for the Open House or for parking on the Centennial Biomedical Campus. Food and refreshments are available for purchase and there is a charge for activities in the Carnival area.
Questions? Call 919.513.6662. The College of Veterinary Medicine is located at 1060 William Moore Drive near the intersection of Hillsborough Street and Blue Ridge Road in Raleigh.
Due to certain health risks:
- Please do not bring your pets to Open House.
- Please do not attend if you have traveled overseas after April 12.
- Remember to wash your hands after touching the animals (especially before eating).

Things I liked:no jams Things I would have changed:nothing What others should know:Kinda heavy, after several quick shots (on a cold day) they really drop off but that's a function of CO2 rifles. Things I liked:These pellets are extremely well made. The accuracy and consistency is superb. I weighed them on my powder scale and they are precise. Things I would have changed:There is nothing I would change. What others should know:I bought these, along with several other brands, sizes, and weights of pellets in order to find something that would come close to accurate in my NPS...... an extraordinary task... They are a little too light for the NPS, but in my HW50S they are tack drivers. I also use them in a highly modified 1377 and a P17, and they punch the same hole so often that I question if I missed all together. As long as you use them for their intended purpose, I don't think you can buy a better pellet. Things I liked:Accuracy and price. Shoots well in my IZZY 46 pistol and RWS 54 rifle. I am testing these against the RWS Match R10. Things I would have changed:Factory packaging keeps the lid on in shipping but it sure would be nice to have a screw on lid after opening the first time. What others should know:This was a educated guess as what to buy as there are so many pellets to choose from. WAG at best.

Know any phone addicts who are engaged?
We're tempted to give these to a couple we know but, frankly, their marriage probably won't last anyway and we don't want to expedite the process. But if you know of pending nuptials involving cell phone addicts with a good sense of humor (if that's possible), this might be impossible to resist.

Hi all
A new quick fix update is available.
Details and download of romcenter 3.56 here
About previous 3.55:
I gave v4 development a break to go back on v3 some weeks (months ?) ago and after hours of hard work on version 3.54, here is the version 3.55 (last v3 version ?).
It fixes all knowns bugs, and speeds up things a little bit.
Of course, you can still report troubles and I will fix it if needed.
I also updated included datafiles, but Logiqx home page hasn't be updated since november 2010. So his datafiles will not be up-to-date. Sorry.
