Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said the central bank must increase its focus on maintaining financial stability in order to prevent a repeat of the crisis that triggered the worst recession since the 1930s.
"The events of the past few years have forcibly reminded us of the damage that severe financial crises can cause," Bernanke said in a speech today in New York. "Going forward, for the Federal Reserve as well as other central banks, the promotion of financial stability must be on an equal footing with the management of monetary policy as the most critical policy priorities."
The remarks expand on a defense of the central bank's aggressive response to the 2007-2009 financial crisis and recession that Bernanke gave in a university lecture last month and in previous speeches. Bernanke, who didn't address the outlook for the economy or monetary policy in his remarks, has cautioned that "it's far too early to declare victory" on the recovery.
"To avoid or at least mitigate future panics, the vulnerabilities that underlay the recent crisis must be fully addressed," Bernanke said today at a conference titled "Rethinking Finance" organized by the Russell Sage Foundation and the Century Foundation. "This process is well under way at both the national and international levels."
Responding to audience questions after the speech, Bernanke said evidence is "weak" that low central bank interest rates contributed to the housing bubble.
Recounting Crisis
Bernanke devoted his speech to recounting the crisis and explaining the Fed's actions to the public as it has come under scrutiny by critics in Congress and on the campaign trail.
Following the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. in 2008, the central bank flooded the financial system with liquidity, expanding its balance sheet to $2.3 trillion by December of that year from $900 billion in September.
Even as the crisis ebbed, the recession deepened, with gross domestic product shrinking at an 8.9 percent annual rate in the fourth quarter of 2008, the worst quarter in 50 years. The unemployment rate rose to 10 percent in October 2009, the highest since June 1983.
Bernanke drew a distinction between triggers of the crisis, such as subprime mortgages, and vulnerabilities of the financial system that amplified their impact.
Subprime Mortgages
The vulnerabilities explain why the estimated $1 trillion in subprime mortgages, or the almost $7 trillion in wealth wiped out by the 30 percent drop in housing prices, had a far larger impact than the $8 trillion in losses caused by the Internet stock bubble, he said.
One key vulnerability was reliance on the so-called shadow banking system, which includes money-market mutual funds and markets for asset-backed commercial paper and repurchase agreements.
Other vulnerabilities included poor risk management by financial firms, inadequate diversification of risk, high leverage and dependence on short-term funding.
"Critically, shadow banking activities were, for the most part, not subject to consistent and effective regulatory oversight," he said. "Even when the relevant statutory authorities did exist, they were not always used forcefully or effectively enough by regulators and supervisors, including the Federal Reserve."
A broader failing, he said, was that no government agency had a mandate or authority to limit risks to the financial system as a whole.
'Very Seriously'
Now, "we're taking the shadow banking issue very seriously," Bernanke said in response to a question. The Fed is also using so-called stress tests to push financial firms to better understand the riskiness of their investments.
"As supervisors and regulators, in the first instance we want to make sure firms are in a position where they can tolerate a major shock," Bernanke said.
The financial system came under pressure in the summer of 2007 as the market for subprime mortgage bonds began to collapse, and by August the Fed responded by cutting the interest rate it charges on loans to banks borrowing at its discount window.
The Fed lowered its benchmark interest rate in a series of cuts, to 3 percent in January 2008 from 5.25 percent in August 2007. Yet in March 2008, the crisis intensified with the collapse of Bear Stearns Cos., the fifth-biggest U.S. securities firm, prompting the Fed to intervene and help JPMorgan Chase & Co. acquire the bank.
That didn't end the crisis. In September 2008, Lehman Brothers filed the largest bankruptcy in U.S. history after the central bank and U.S. Treasury declined to intervene. One day later, the Fed made an $85 billion loan to American International Group Inc. to avert the collapse of the New York- based insurance company.

Outpatient Mental Health Services
The outpatient mental health program constitutes the largest direct service component of our company. Outpatient therapy for most clients is a time-limited, goal-oriented therapeutic process designed to assist them in conquering a present obstacle in their lives and to equip them with the resources they will need in order to conquer similar problems on their own in the future.
Our outpatient program is available at each of the six service locations, with licensed professionals able to provide the following types of services: Initial intake and treatment planning; pre-care screening and diagnostic services; individual therapy for children, adolescents, and adults; group therapy for children, adolescents, and adults; marriage counseling; family therapy; psychological and psychiatric evaluations; and medication evaluation and maintenance.
Emergency Mental Health Services
Our company has been designated by the state of Arkansas Division of Behavioral Health Services to serve as the single-point-of-entry for clients in our geographical area who require entry into the state mental health system. As a part of this mandate, our company provides emergency mental health services around the clock, both in the form of a toll-free telephone crisis line and through face-to-face mental health screening services. To access these emergency services, simply walk into one of our local clinics or call our toll-free emergency crisis line at 1-800-323-2703.
Proactive Community Intervention Services
What makes our company's community intervention program unique is that since 1988, all of the community intervention specialists hired have been licensed practical nurses. As such, not only are they able to provide the usual case management activities involving client advocacy, but as licensed medical personnel, they are in the unique position of being able to detect early the warning signs that typically occur just as a client with severe and persistent mental illness is beginning to relapse into his or her illness. Acting on the orders of our psychiatric team, these nurses can often act immediately to forestall the progression of the illness and an expensive, unnecessary inpatient stay.
Psychosocial Rehabilitation Services
Our company is committed to providing quality mental health services to individuals within our community who suffer with severe and persistent forms of mental illness and who have long-term, special needs requiring a more structured, intensive level of care than can be provided on an outpatient basis.
The intent of the program is not to provide custodial care or to reward perpetual dependence on the mental health system. Rather, it's purpose is to offer quality services with the intent of assisting our severely and persistently mentally ill clients in achieving a sense of self-respect, in acquiring useful skills, and in developing the highest possible level of personal independence leading to a greater quality of life.
Skilled paraprofessional specialists along with the professional mental health staff working together to provide an array of services aimed at assisting clients to develop and strengthen a natural support system within their own communities. Such services include skills acquisition training, behavioral health maintenance, resocialization training, resource coordination, supervised work crews, and medical monitoring.
Delta Counseling Associates, Inc. has psychosocial rehabilitation programs in Warren, Crossett, Lake Village, and in McGehee. These programs operate Monday through Friday, from 8:00 A.M. until 3:00 PM.
Inpatient Referral Services
As an outpatient service provider, Delta Counseling Associates, Inc. does not directly offer inpatient mental health services. However, in addition to having access to the services of the Arkansas State Hospital in Little Rock, our company maintains service agreements with several specialized psychiatric inpatient facilities in order to provide our clients with the very best in inpatient psychiatric care.
Consultation & Education Services
Our company provides professional trained staff who specialize in consultation, education, and prevention around mental health issues and problems to schools, social service agencies, physicians, hospitals, nursing homes, law enforcement, and other civic and community programs and services.
For more information, you may contact the company's in-service training coordinator.
Alcohol Safety Education Program
Delta Counseling Associates, Inc. has a contract with the Arkansas Department of Health to provide services in the five-county catchment area to the municipal courts and to DWI offenders. Under the terms of this contract, DWI program staff provide court screenings on persons charged with DWI offenses, teach DWI education classes, and offer secondary treatment groups to persons convicted of more than one such offense.
For more information on this program, you may call 1-(870)367-1701.

AP News
Demand strong in key Spanish bond auction
MADRID (AP) — Spain has raised €4.8 billion ($6.2 billion) in a debt auction that saw strong demand and a drop in the benchmark interest rate — a sign of increased investor confidence.
The Treasury sold €859 million in benchmark 10-year bonds Thursday at an average rate of 5.67 percent, down from 6.65 percent in the last such auction Aug. 2. Demand was 2.8 times the amount offered.
The Treasury sold €3.94 billion in three-year bonds at a rate of 3.84 percent, up from 3.6 percent.
The total sold was €300 million more than planned.
Spain's borrowing costs have fallen from unsustainable highs since the European Central Bank in August unveiled plans to buy the bonds of financially weakened countries. Madrid has said it may apply for aid if the terms are reasonable.

Multilayer Anti-Fog Coating, developed by the Université Laval, Quebec. Image credit: iStockphoto/Chepko Danil.
According to the journal Applied Materials and Interfaces, scientists from Quebec City's Université Laval have recently developed the world's first permanent anti-fog coating for transparent glass or plastic surfaces. To make the coating, the researchers applied the hydrophobic compound polyvinyl alcohol on top of several layers of silicon via an atmospheric plasma process.Unlike other commercially-available anti-fog coatings that make claims of permanence, the new technology will endure repeated abuse without requiring reapplication. Initial applications target eyewear, which is good news for anyone tired of their glasses or diving masks fogging up. Perhaps we'll also see bathroom mirrors with the new anti-fog coating before long.

Invasion of Astro-MonsterComments11
|Godzilla Films
Invasion of Astro-Monster (怪獣大戦争?, Kaijū Daisenso, lit. Great Monster War) is a 1965 tokusatsu kaiju film produced by Toho Company Ltd., and the sixth installment in the Godzilla series as well as the Showa series. The film was released to Japanese theaters on December 19, 1965.
During a manned mission to Planet X behind Jupiter (not to be confused with the hypothesized Planet X), the astronauts encounter inhabitants called Xiliens who ask to borrow the two Earth-bound Monsters Zero-One (Godzilla) and Zero-Two (Rodan) to combat their own terror, Monster Zero.
At the outset of the movie, the two-man spacecraft, crewed by one Japanese and one American (Fuji and Glenn), is approaching Jupiter to visit the newly-discovered "Planet X", which inexplicably maintains a position directly behind Jupiter. The planet is rather dark, but still lit up enough to be visible and for it to be possible to navigate its surface. The spacecraft lands, and the astronauts disembark.
One astronaut vanishes, and the other wonders where he, and the spacecraft, have gone, and then a flat voice intones to him, instructing him where to go. The astronauts are led through subterranean corridors to the office of the Controller of Planet X.
The spacecraft is safe, he assures them, and indicates that they are about to be attacked. The astronauts recognize the attacking creature, King Ghidorah. After a brief black-out, when the astronauts are cut off from being able to see and hear the Controller, they are assured that the monster, known as Monster Zero, has left.
The Controller says that they want Earth's help: to be allowed to capture Monsters Zero One and Zero Two, known to Earthmen as Godzilla and Rodan. In return, Planet X will gift humanity with a wonder drug that cures all diseases. The astronauts agree to return to Earth with the proposal. As they lift off, they say on the radio to the Controller, "We're glad we found friends on Planet X."
Meanwhile, Fuji's sister has a boyfriend, Tetsuo, who's invented a personal alarm he thinks women could use to summon assistance if they're endangered. It creates a horrific loud noise that can be heard blocks away, and wonders why nobody's interested in buying it, but then a Miss Namikawa comes and makes an offer to buy it as an educational device, but keeps putting Tetsuo off on completing the deal.
Fuji and Glenn arrive home, and tell their superiors of the offer by Planet X. Scientists begin searching for Godzilla and Rodan. Then, the Controller of Planet X makes mysterious appearances on Earth, and Glenn becomes suspicious about Planet X. The Controller finally makes his appearance overt, "apologizes" for his unannounced presence, and offers to help locate the two monsters. Two Planet X spacecraft rapidly fly off and extract the two monsters.
Glenn, Fuji and one of their superiors are invited aboard a spacecraft to accompany the Controller back to Planet X, a trip that takes only a few hours; the Controller says that soon they'll be able to travel as fast as light. On reaching Planet X, there is almost immediately an attack by King Ghidorah, and the two from Earth are released to battle it. King Ghidorah is driven off, Godzilla dances a victory jig, and the Controller exults about that. He presents a box that, he says, contains information about the miracle drug, and presents the three men with a faithful duplicate of their spaceship so they can fly home.
On arrival, the box is taken to a special international meeting and is opened to find a reel-to-reel tape. It is loaded onto a machine and set up to play. When the speakers remain silent for a long period, some wonder if the systems are compatible, but others say their system is exactly the same as ours. Finally, there is a beep, and the voice begins. "This is the Controller of Planet X. You will listen to my instructions..." It is an ultimatum to surrender to Planet X.
The aliens arrive, destroy the spacecraft, and threaten to release the three creatures, which are now all under Planet X's control. In a show of confidence, the aliens even betray the method of control: magnetic waves. The Earth scientists realize that they could exploit this information, and work rapidly to find a way to disrupt those magnetic waves, while in the meantime, Earth's armies fight nearly in futility with conventional weapons as the monsters wage most of their destruction against Japan.
Tetsuo, meanwhile, is dissatisfied with the lack of progress on his device, and his inability to get Miss Namikawa to tell him what's happening. He gets imprisoned by the Planet X soldiers. When Glenn, who was infatuated with Miss Namikawa, is also arrested after finding out something about her - she's from Planet X and all their women are virtually identical, he and Tetsuo put clues together. Namikawa gave Glenn, before she was disintegrated by a Planet X soldier, a letter, and in it she says that one simple sound will destroy the people of Planet X. It is the sound made by Tetsuo's "lady beware alarm". He still has the prototype, takes it out and sets it off. It upsets and paralyzes the Planet X soldiers and Glenn can immobilize them and they escape.
They reach the space center scientists and explain about the device. Arrangements are made to broadcast it on all radio and television stations, a tactic that will be employed when the magnetic disruption devices are deployed.
The three monsters are removed from Planet X control, as Planet X spacecraft explode and personnel escape the noise by blowing up ships. Planet X withdraws its attempts to conquer Earth. Meanwhile, Godzilla attacks King Ghidorah with the aid of Rodan, forcing King Ghidorah into a retreat.
Glenn and Fuji are to be sent to Planet X again as ambassadors to seek peaceful relations.

Alternate Titles
Theatrical Releases
U.S. Release
The film was released in North America by UPA and distributed by Maron Films in 1970 under the title Monster Zero. It played on a double bill with War of the Gargantuas. There were several alterations made:
The American version runs 93 minutes, three minutes shorter than the Japanese version. In his book Japan's Favorite Mon-Star: An Unauthorized History of 'The Big G', Steve Ryfle says "The Americanization...is respectful to the original Japanese version."
In the original edited Japanese version of this movie, Nick Adams' original voice was dubbed over by the Japanese voice-actor. However in the re-edited American version (including the unedited International version), Nick Adams' voice wasn't dubbed over.
Box Office
When Invasion of Astro-Monster was first released on December 19, 1965, it received an attendance of 3,780,000. On its March 17, 1971 re-issue, it sold 350,000 tickets, adding up to a rough total of 5,130,000 attendees.
When the film was released in the U.S. on 1970, double-billed with War of the Gargantuas, it gained $3,000,000.
Invasion of Astro-Monster is very liked by fans, often dubbed a classic due to its extraordinary sci-fi, special effects, plot, and cast.

good value By George on 12/15/2014George would recommend this product to a friendDecided to get the 500w without the controller because I was going to hook it up to an apex systems and it works great.
Don't waste your money By Eddie on 12/5/2014Eddie wouldn't recommend this product to a friendI bought the 500 watt model and within a month I started feeling stray voltage in my tank. Based on the reviews at the time, I assumed I had a lemon. I tossed it and replaced it with the 300 watt model. Same thing happened with that one also. The unit comes very nicely packaged and appears to be of decent quality, but after minimal use the lack of quality is quite apparent. I had a Won Bros Pro Heat Titanium heater last me over 7 years, but they also appear to have dropped in quality. I gave the Cobalt Neo-Therm a shot as well. The 150 watt model works great, but the 200 watt model has quality issues with stray voltage and/or blowing up. It looks like I'll be sticking with the Eheim JAGER TruTemp. If you value your life and your livestock, I recommend you do as well.
Great Product By PotteryMan on 11/18/2014PotteryMan would recommend this product to a friendI purchased the 500 watt heater and run it using a controller. Works great.
First Titanium Heater By Lee on 11/15/2014Lee would recommend this product to a friendThis was my first titanium heater I ever purchased (800watt). I love the idea of not worrying about it breaking/cracking. I hooked it up to a ranco controller that came with a setup I purchased and it is maintaining accurate temperature. No complaints. Very happy.
great By dominick on 11/13/2014dominick would recommend this product to a friendI have the finnex 800 watt and it keeps my 265 gallons of water at a steady 80 degrees im using reefkeeper to control it best heater iv purchased!no more glass for me lol.
Just Installed By Tom on 11/8/2014Tom would recommend this product to a friendI live in Wisconsin and my current 150 Watt wasn't doing the job. I wanted something small to fit in my sump Refugium. This was the smallest I could find. The 300 watt has no problem heating my tank. I use the Apex to control it.
Not so great By Robert on 10/19/2014Robert wouldn't recommend this product to a friendI liked the idea of this heater. I could control it with my reefkeeper and liked the idea that it wasn't glass, felt like it was safer. I was upgrading my tank to a larger tank and started unplugging things one at a time. I removed my grounding probe and my next reach into the tank came with a shock. I removed each piece of equipment one at a time to find out what it was and narrowed it down to my 500w Finnex Deluxe Heater. I contact Finnex as it was their warranty issue, not BRS's and they asked if the cord was damaged, it was not. They told me "it is grounded, that's why the cord has three prongs"....really? Even if the ground helps alleviate the problem, that is still stray voltage, I don't care how you look at it. Their solution was to offer me a discount on another heater so that I can shock myself again in a few months.
No thanks.
AWESOME By Jeremy on 10/13/2014Jeremy would recommend this product to a friendI love this heater, its smaller then other heaters ive used and is way quicker to heat up. Hooked it up to my controller and it performs so well I'll never look back.
Packaging was funny as it was mis-spelt "Unbeakable" but that just means they focus on their product and not the box.
Don't hesitate!
First Impressions By Ben on 10/4/2014Ben would recommend this product to a friendI bought the 800w heater for a 180g frag system I am building. Now I haven't had a chance to even plug this thing in yet, but wow. This heater is a work of art. It is heavy, obviously quality construction, and it just looks impressive. I'll follow up after a few months of use.
Love these heaters! By Reefgeek on 9/16/2014Reefgeek would recommend this product to a friendBeen using titanium heating tubes for as long as i can remember reefing. Have never had a problem, just make sure to hook it up to a reliable controller (cough cough..Apex). I have two 500W on my 300G and could not be happier.
This heater works get but fails after 4 months By Robert on 8/12/2014Robert wouldn't recommend this product to a friendI purchased the 500w heater and after 4 1/2 months it started to shock me when I put my hand in the tank I got ahold of finnex and they told be if the damage was due to water I would have to pay for the repair and the shipping back to me. on top of paying to ship it to them . I thought Heaters were to go in water. will never buy again
Bought two. Both SHOCKED me right from the box. By John on 7/20/2014John wouldn't recommend this product to a friendI bought two of these for my 220 gal reef build.
upon putting them in my sump and plugging them in. BOTH leaked current badly. Putting my hand in the water to move them in the sump and I could feel the current in the water. touching each one gave me a very nice shock.
Total chinese junk. If this is how bad their quality control is, they dont need to be selling merchandise to the public.

Previously Asked Questions

I'm considering purchasing one of the Neptune Apex controllers (the $529 or the $549 version) and wondered about heater options. I see that the units include a temp probe, but I assume that doesn't regulate temp (other than communicating with a heater to turn it on or off) of the aquarium, it just measures the temp. Is that correct? If so, I was thinking of pairing it with a heater (800W finnex titanium heater (the one with out the thermostat)). Would I need to purchase the thermostat separate from this to plug into the Apex controller, or would the controller have some sort of built in interface to turn the heater tube on and off? At the end of the day, I just need to know what I would need to purchase to replace an old school stand along heater that I have now in my 180 gal reef tank. Thanks,
Bulk Reef Supply Hi Nathan,
The temperature probe itself only reads the temp, but you can use that information to act on an outlet. For example you could tell outlet number 1 to turn on if the temperature is below 78 degrees and off if it is over. This would allow it to control a heater.
In the interest of redundancy though, I would use a heater with a thermostat and then plug that heater/thermostat combo into an outlet on the apex. You can use the apex to turn that outlet off and cut power to both in the even the built in heater thermostat fails. Generally in this situation you would set the heater to say, 78 degrees, and tell the Apex to kill the power at 79 degrees. This way the built in controller does all the work, the apex is just a safety cut off.
As you said, this particular heater doesn't have a thermostat and while you could use the Apex to control it, it would be best to have another form of redundancy (like a heater with a built in temp control).

Since this heater requires a separate controller would it be a good option to use with an apex controller?
Bulk Reef Supply Hey James,
It would be a great option for use with an Apex or other aquarium controller, in fact its what I use with mine!
by Richard on June 21, 2014, @2:44 PM
Can the Finnex Deluxe heating tube be controlled with the Digital Aquatics Reefkeeper Titanium plus
Bulk Reef Supply Hi Richard,
That wouldn't be a problem at all. Just plug the heater into one of the ReefKeeper outlets and then program that outlet to turn on and off based on the temperature.
by Steven on June 26, 2014, @6:19 AM
Do you still need their controller with Finnex Titanium TH-800 tubes if you have an Apex. I do have their tubes but no controller.
Bulk Reef Supply Hi Steven,
You can plug the heating tube into an outlet on the Apex and control it via the Apex & temperature probe if you like.
by Tyler on July 31, 2014, @5:16 AM
Hi, I am wondering if the reefkeeper lite would work to control this heater?
Bulk Reef Supply Hi Tyler,
That wouldn't be any issue at all. Just plug the heater into one of the outlets and you can use the Temperature probe on the RK system to turn that outlet on and off to heat the water as needed.

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – Love it or hate it, the white-domed roof is soon to be gone. By Saturday night, the teflon bubble that's been a part of the Twin Cities skyline for more than 30 years will likely be gone.
Weather permitting, crews plan to deflate the Metrodome early Saturday. The old building is coming down to make way for a new Vikings stadium in downtown Minneapolis.
Benson Hardy works at Periscope, an ad agency that backs up to the stadium.
"It's gonna be kinda weird to look at it and first see it without a dome," he said.
Hardy's office overlooks the dome. He parks his car right in front of it.
"What I plan on doing is coming back Monday and standing in this exact same spot and taking the exact same picture," he said.
It should look different.
Workers will cut off the electricity, open the doors, the roof will deflate into stands where no one will sit again.
"I'm kind of a Colts fan," Hardy said. "But I'm a Vikings fan also, but really for me, it's just the nostalgia."
But for Deb Eaton, it's all about the Vikes. Her friend Ruth Tita says Eaton is the kind of fan who can't be disturbed during games, and who's known to yell.
Eaton's got a reputation for being the team's biggest fan, and her bedroom in her Crystal group home supports that notion. On the wall hangs a pair of Adrian Peterson's cleats.
She says it's time for change, and she's cautiously optimistic that will trickle down to the field.
"I'm not holding my breath," she said.
Saturday won't be about the game. It'll be about saying goodbye to a place where so many Minnesotans played.
Cameras will be inside to watch the roof fall, WCCO-TV will have that footage Saturday night. People are being asked not to come out.
Officials say crowds might make the construction zone dangerous.
No specific time for the deflating has been announced.

You are here: Southwark \ Health & Fitness \ Health and Fitness Events \ 37 DEGREES OF RELAXATION
1 July 2009
After wandering across Tower Bridge in the boiling heat and pleading with strangers for their begrudging directions I eventually find my way to 37 degrees, a state of the art gym on the river front, where I am booked in for £58 worth of Swedish massaging, writes Jo Brunwin...
As I walk into the main reception area feeling sceptical and drenched in sweat, it dawns on me that an hour-long massage might be exactly what I need. The staff who greet me at the front desk are very polite, unlike the few people I had encountered on my journey, and they kindly direct me down the steps towards the treatment rooms.
The treatment salon itself is comfortably modern and perhaps a little cosier than I had expected. There are four separate treatment rooms altogether.
Whilst I waited I browsed through the treatment leaflet that told me exactly what else was on offer; they do pretty much everything - from a full body wax to tanning and even back treatments, with prices ranging from as little as £10 to as much as £189.
I was invited into one of the treatment rooms and almost as soon as I stepped inside I felt a little less stressed. There were tea light candles lit in one corner of the room and the spotlights in the ceiling were dimmed, which really set the tone. In the background there was gentle ambient music playing, so subtle that I'm not even sure where it was coming from.
Before my massage I was given the option of having an energising or a stress relieving oil. As you may guess I opted for the 'stress reliever' which, I was told, contained ingredients such as lavender and ylang ylang. Key ingredients, apparently, in relieving stress.
The massage itself was intensely relaxing. I actually closed my eyes and if it hadn't have been for the occasional twang of pain from the knots of tension in my shoulders then I am quite sure that I could have fallen asleep.
Being my first massage I have nothing to compare the experience too. However, Careen did tell me that the most popular massages that the salon offers are a deep tissue massage and a sports massage. Both of which can be quite painful and leave you feeling completely stiff, as they work hard at targeting "troubled areas" and stretching your muscles, which sounded very different to the calming massage that I had experienced.
After the massage was over I sat there for a good five minutes whilst I sipped on some water, when the sudden realisation that I would have to get up and make my way back to work dawned on me. All of that stress relief was for nothing.
I would definitely recommend a Swedish massage or any of the treatments that 37 degrees have on offer for that matter, but make sure you take a day for it, a day when you won't have to go back to work.

it's a great all round lipstick except for me, it emphasized the lines in my lips. I have quite deep lines on my top lip though, so perhaps its only me that's abnormal, haha.
conversely amplified cremes (blankety, for example) do NOT emphasize any of those lines. wish I could wear this more often but it takes some amount of prepping and priming my lips (exfoliate, condition, lip primer) for me to wear this well. due to the extra trouble, I don't wear it often. :(

This lipstick is the perfect all around pink. It goes with most skin tones and it has the perfect amount of nude in it mixed with pink. The only thing about this product, is you do have to reapply a lot throughout the day but that's only because it is a cremesheen. Over all, this is a great lipstick!

My absolute favourite lipstick. This is the first MAC l have ever bought and have bought it many times since. I'm a huge fan of pale, nudie-pink lipstick shades and this is just perfection. Beautiful on it's own, or for a bit more definition, MAC's "Barely There" lipliner. Suits me well as I'm fair (NC15-20) but if you find that pale lipsticks suit you then this is the one to go for! Lovely creamy formula, and very long lasting, you have to buy Creme Cup!

I think that with colors like these, not only your skin shade matters (light - dark), but your undertone. In that way, Creme Cup could be a real hit or miss. For me, it is definitely a hit. I am very pale with a cool undertone, and this light, cool toned pink is my version of a nude lip. Anything beige looks brown on me, but this manages to give me that soft, muted lip I was looking for. It's also creamy, opaque, and smells like vanilla cupcakes. That, mixed with the name, makes this absolutely delicious and fun to wear! It's so easy, every-day, and is one of my most worn lipsticks.

I used to have Angel, and I hated it. But, surprisingly I knew I wanted to replace it with its "dupe" Creme Cup. It is sooo much better than Angel. CC has a subtle cool undertone to it, and it's a really pretty light pink nude color that would work for all skin tones. It has a Cremesheen finish, so it's slightly creamy, and comfortable to wear. It's semi-opaque, and lasts about four-five hours on me. I have one nude nude-Myth, one coral nude-Coral Bliss, and this is the only pink nude I have found that I love. A must have lipstick for fair skin!

i heard so much about MAC lipsticks that i want to love this.
But sorry, i can't! it just does not look right sitting on my lips. Perhaps the colour is too beigey or strong and the texture is not right. This makes it look like i smeared some crayon on my lips which is NOT the look i am going for. The colour is also too stark against my asian NC 25 skin. I am not sure if its just me coz i know some asian like beautifymeh loves this, but this just does not work on me. I am chinese with yellow skin tones so perhaps that is why?

I don't think this lipstick compliments me! It looks a bit orangy and beigey and that's not what I was looking for I was looking for a pale pink nude that would compliment me but this unfortunately wasn't it and I'm really sad because it's so expensive for a lipstick! really dont like this

Councillors wanted a discussion considering the severe scarcity of drinking water in many wards.
The issue of drinking water supply to the drought-hit wards of the city once again rocked the Kozhikode Municipal Corporation Council on Wednesday as the opposition wanted immediate steps to solve the crisis despite the election code of conduct.
The issue began with a calling attention motion by P.V. Avaran of IUML, in which he pointed out that the practice of distributing water in tanker lorries like in previous years could be started. Following Mr. Avaran's presentation, the Mayor A.K. Premajam gave permission to K.Ravindran of the CPI(M) for a calling attention motion on the issue, which irked the opposition that felt that it was an attempt to stall a discussion on the issue.
K. Muhammedali of the IUML demanded that the issue be discussed in the council to form a favourable decision considering the severe scarcity of drinking water in many wards of the Corporation.Permission
However, the Mayor read out the government order that permits the local bodies to take up relief measures in drought hit areas if the bodies designated for the purpose did not do so.
The opposition was not satisfied with the explanation and alleged that the Mayor was trying to evade the issue. They shouted slogans and raised placards that stated that the election code of conduct was irrelevant for a city that was thirsty.
Amidst the protest by the opposition, the ruling front members passed a 26 point agenda without discussion and the council was dispersed.
Talking to reporters later, Mr.Muhammedali said that the Kozhikode Corporation usually was ready by January to supply drinking water to the needy, a practice which was not carried out this year. They accused the Mayor of taking autocratic decisions and not allowing discussion on relevant topics.Legal responsibility
The Mayor, in a press conference later, explained that though the Corporation had a moral responsibility to ensure the availability of drinking water in the city, the legal responsibility was wrested with the Revenue department.List submitted
The Corporation had already submitted a list of drought hit areas to the Deputy Collector in charge of disaster management.
"The order states that the local bodies could take up the task only if the Revenue department states clearly that it could not supply water to specific regions. Only then the tender can be floated," the Mayor said.
She also alleged that the ruckus created by the opposition in the council was pre-planned, well rehearsed and for the sake of the elections.

5 Abernant, one of the greatest sprinters, was named after the house in Wales in which John's uncle Trevor Lawrence lived.
6 John Lawrence's early riding experience was on his rotund old pony Mince Pie, who "had a deeply embarrassing habit of farting the moment she saw a horse larger than her."
7 A photo of six-year-old John Lawrence being catapulted over Mince Pie's head at the Purton pony hunter trials in 1935 appeared on the front page of the Daily Express.
8 Mince Pie achieved permanent recognition in the title of John Oaksey's 2003 autobiography: Mince Pie for Starters.
9 First bet: at the age of six, on point-to-pointer Nettlebed, who "looked destined for runner-up spot until the leader conveniently fell at the last, leaving me five bob richer - and hooked on horseracing."
10 At Eton, John Lawrence was captain of the boxing team.
11 After Eton he enrolled for National Service. Served at Catterick, "where for the first time in my life I discovered what hard work really was."

16 First point-to-point ride: Paula, owned by one of his three sisters, at Siddington, April 1950. Pulled up after six fences.
17 First point-to-point winner: the mare Next Of Kin The blood relatives entitled by law to inherit the property of a person who dies without leaving a valid will, although the term is sometimes interpreted to include a relationship existing by reason of marriage. Cross-references
Descent and Distribution. in 1951 at the Pegasus Club meeting at Kimble, confined to senior lawyers and their families: "Next Of Kin confirmed my inclination to go for a racing rather than a legal career by giving me the experience of my life to date. By the time she sailed over the last fence, the judges and barristers who had dreamed up the Pegasus Club had, however unwittingly, deprived their learned profession of my services."
18 In 1955 started riding out for Bob Turnell, "who heads the list of the kind souls who have put up with my incompetence."
19 First winner under rules: Pyrene in a hunter chase at Sandown Park, March 16, 1956.
20 Fulke Walwyn, for whom John Oaksey rode many winners, described his riding style as "a fine example of the Old English Lavatory Seat".
21 Married Victoria ('Tory'), daughter of trainer Ginger Dennistoun, in 1959.
22 Two children: Patrick, now a leading barrister, and Sara, married to trainer Mark Bradstock.
23 Divorced from Tory in 1987, in 1988 he married Chicky, now chief almoner of the Injured Jockeys' Fund.
24 First big-race win: 1958 Imperial Cup at Sandown Park on Flaming East. Reported in the Daily Telegraph how Flaming East had won, "carrying on his back a flabbergasted amateur rider who is hardly able to believe that the race was real and not a dream."
25 Won 1958 Whitbread Gold Cup at Sandown on Taxidermist, beating Mandarin four lengths - "the nearest thing to pure joy I ever experienced on a racecourse."
26 Winner and runner-up were both trained by Fulke Walwyn.
Lawrence suggested to Walwyn what a thrill the Whitbread finish must have been for him, only for the trainer to blast back: "Thrill? I wasn't ****ing thrilled at all. I'd done my boots on Mandarin!"
27 Champion amateur for first time in 1957-58.
28 Won 1958 Hennessy Gold Cup on Taxidermist, by "the width of a cigarette paper" after jumping the last a remote fifth.
29 His father, watching the race from the last fence, wrote a note to his son that "today was one of the most exciting if not the most exciting I've had." Oaksey later reflected: "The most exciting day of his life? Well, of course it cannot have been. Nevertheless, true or false, they were nice words for his son to read."
30 Joined Daily Telegraph - where he was given the pen name 'Marlborough' - in 1957, and started writing as 'Audax' for Horse and Hound in 1959.
31 His famous description of the 1962 Grand Steeplechase de Paris won by Fred Winter on the bitless Mandarin - voted the greatest ride ever by Racing Post readers - was filed to the Telegraph from the British Embassy in Paris.
32 Closing sentences of his Horse and Hound account of the 1962 Grand Steeplechase: "On Sunday, Fred Winter and Mandarin earned themselves a place among the immortal names of sport. I have never seen a comparable feat, never expect to - and can only thank God I was there."
33 His reports in the Telegraph and Horse and Hound provided the definitive chronicle of the achievements of Arkle. On Hennessy Gold Cup day 1964 he wrote of his favourite racehorse racehorse
refers usually to thoroughbred but may also include standardbred, trotter. : "Until some flaw is revealed in Arkle's armoury, I for one will continue to believe that, in him, we are lucky enough to have seen the perfect, complete chaser."
34 Rode 11 times in the Grand National between 1961 and 1975, completing four times.
35 On Carrickbeg, owned jointly with Gay Kindersley, he led over the last in the 1963 National but was caught close home by Ayala.
36 Immediately after weighing in, he ran across the Ormskirk Road to the house from which he dictated to the Telegraph what Brough Scott has called "the greatest 'live' participatory report filed from a major event."
37 This report relived how he "felt Carrickbeg sprawl and change his legs. Hard as I strove to pull him together, the last dreg of his stamina - and mine - had drained away. It still seemed possible, but then Ayala's head appeared at my knee."
38 Years later he was emerging from the gents' toilet at Piccadilly Circus tube station Piccadilly Circus Tube station is the London Underground station located directly beneath Piccadilly Circus itself, with entrances at every corner. Located in Travelcard Zone 1, the station is on the Piccadilly Line between Green Park and Leicester Square and on the Bakerloo Line in the early hours when he was accosted ac·cost

41 Founding trustee of Injured Jockeys' Fund, then chairman and more recently president.
42 Minute from early meeting of Fund trustees: "Mr Lawrence suggested that the Fund might make some money by selling a Christmas card. He had been told that we might expect to make one - or even two - thousand pounds."

44 Centrepiece of Oaksey House is a life-size bronze of John Oaksey by Willie Newton. "Reading John Oaksey's race reports was what first sold me on racing," says the sculptor. "They were written from the heart, and I wanted to express that passion, seriousness and intelligence in the bronze."
45 The Injured Jockeys' Fund, according to John Oaksey, "has given me more pride than any of my other activities within horseracing."
46 Rode first three winners of the 'Amateurs' Derby' at Epsom in 1963-65, adding a fourth in 1973.
47 In December 1964 he rode Pioneer Spirit in an amateur riders' chase at Cheltenham. Clear of his rivals coming down the hill, he mistakenly thought he had taken the wrong course and pulled up, returning through a gauntlet of disgruntled punters. Back home, he ran a hot bath but, while he was taking a phone call, the bath overflowed and sent the floor crashing down.

51 Memorable encounter with the great Flyingbolt, who long after his glory days as Arkle's contemporary with Tom Dreaper had moved to Roddy Armytage, for whom Oaksey regularly rode out: "There was a gallop which ran for five or six furlongs uphill to a small circular wood. I held him, more or less, up the hill, but then 'oh dear'. Maybe he was looking for Arkle. Round and round and round that wood we went - four times, I think - with Flyingbolt not exactly running away but me not exactly in control either! It was only after I got him to pull up that I learned the identity of my steed."
52 Whitbread Gold Cup, 1974. On Proud Tarquin, Oaksey beat Ron Barry on The Dikler by a head, only to be demoted on the grounds of interference. "The passing of time," wrote Oaksey in his autobiography, "has done nothing to diminish my feeling that a great injustice was done, and that the stewards who adjudicated ought to have been tapping their way down Piccadilly with white sticks."

"By the final turn I was pushing along like mad, and as we straightened for home I looked up: the winning post seemed to be about four miles away.

1. An original model or type after which other similar things are patterned; a prototype: "'Frankenstein' . . . 'Dracula' . . . 'Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde' . . . English gentleman. He is a sweetheart, a star, the bravest of the brave, funny and kind - how lucky the sport of racing has been to have him as its leading writer and advocate for so many years."
