3rd Annual Seacoast Wind Ensemble Portsmouth Peace Treaty Concert Honors "Peacemakers & Diplomats" President Carter, Senator George Mitchell, Senator Claiborne Pell
Portsmouth, New Hampshire (June 1, 2009) -- On Saturday, June 20th at 8 pm at The Music Hall in downtown Portsmouth, the Seacoast Wind Ensemble presents "Peacemakers & Diplomats," a program of music celebrating Nobel Laureate Jimmy Carter, Senator George Mitchell and the late Senator Claiborne Pell (RI) "in the spirit of the Portsmouth Peace Treaty." Guest artists, Portsmouth Pro Musica will join in music from the Carter administration Camp David Accords celebration. The annual program by the Seacoast Wind Ensemble (www. SeacoastWindEnsemble.org) is organized and conducted by Music Director Richard C. Spicer and sponsored by the Portsmouth Peace Treaty Forum, supported by the Japan-America Society of New Hampshire. Tickets are $15 ($5 for seniors, students and children under 12) and are available at The Music Hall Box Office, 28 Chestnut Street, Portsmouth, by phone 603-436-2400 and on-line at www.themusichall.org
Richard Spicer, Music Director for the Seacoast Wind Ensemble and music historian has spent the past year researching music for the program. During a visit to the US Marine Corps Band library in Washington, DC he found the programs - and complete musical scores arranged for band - from the Inauguration of President Jimmy Carter, who would win the 2002 Nobel Peace Prize for bringing peace between two warring countries, as President Theodore Roosevelt won the 1906 Nobel Peace Prize for the Portsmouth Peace Treaty.
Mr. Spicer also found the program from the White House State Dinner on March 25, 1979, that celebrated those Camp David Accords, including a performance by the U.S. Army Chorus of an arrangement of traditional Egyptian and Israeli folk songs. That gave him the inspiration to invite local chorus Portsmouth Pro Musica under the direction of Priscilla French as guest artists for the June 20th concert to perform the piece. Then the challenge was to find the music needed to perform. "I began looking for the music that was arranged for the original concert, which led me to the original Army Band arranger, James Kessler, who is now retired," said Spicer. "To my delight and gratitude he agreed to provide the arrangement for chorus and the Ensemble. So we will be performing music specially arranged for the Portsmouth Peace Treaty concert, created by the same man who arranged the Camp David Accords concert."
Other selections on the program honor Senator George Mitchell, now special envoy to the Middle East, who helped negotiate the Northern Ireland peace accords and Senator Claiborne Pell of Rhode Island (who died on January 1, 2009), founder of the Claiborne Pell Institute for International Relations and Public Policy. In addition to participating in the San Francisco Conference that created the United Nations, Senator Pell was the only member of the Senate to have been a Foreign Service Officer, with eight years in the diplomatic service including posts in Czechoslovakia following the Communist takeover. Senator Pell was also the principal sponsor of a 1965 law establishing the National Endowment for the Arts and the National Endowment for the Humanities. A performance of Sibelius' "Finlandia" commemorates the 2008 Nobel Peace Prize winner, Martti Ahtisarri, former President of Finland. "The Portsmouth Peace Treaty is an important piece of history as the foundation for Theodore Roosevelt's Nobel Peace Prize and as an early demonstration that the ordinary American citizen can make a difference," said Charles Doleac, chairman of the Portsmouth Peace Treaty Forum. "This annual commemorative concert helps trace that story from a musical perspective."
The Portsmouth Peace Treaty Forum was created in 1994 to study and commemorate the Portsmouth Peace Treaty and to explore diplomatic themes "in the spirit of the Portsmouth Peace Treaty." In 1905, diplomats from Russia and Japan met in Portsmouth, as President Roosevelt's guests, to negotiate an end to the Russo-Japanese War. The Portsmouth Peace Treaty is an important piece of history as the foundation for Theodore Roosevelt's Nobel Peace Prize and as an early demonstration that the ordinary American citizen can make a difference. The Portsmouth Peace Treaty Forum and the many local groups who produce Treaty-themed programs and events have greatly expanded awareness of Portsmouth as a unique example of active community participation in American diplomacy. The Forum has supported programs created by more than 45 different organizations, encourages scholarly research and invites insight from leading diplomats and scholars. Initiatives include:

It seems that Stuart Regan has slipped into the well worn slippers of previous incumbents of his role. His statement regarding Paul McBride's 'astonishing' attack on the SFA had the 'Hand Of Peat' shoved up it's crevice.
His six point attack used language like unjustified, inflammatory, self-publicist, inaccurate, defamatory and malicious. That brings back memories of Peat's 'tiresome innuendo'. It also seems a unusually strong defence of an organisation that they admit themselves has ' The burden of history influences what we do and there has been, for far too long, a reluctance to embrace modernisation and make the game fit for purpose in the 21st Century.'
McBride seems to be on a win, win here. His quip that it was like a missing page of a Monty Python sketch sums up the whole of the SFA's season. Enjoy.

LONDON (ShareCast) - The sale of HSBC (LSE: HSBA.L - news) 'S 9.4bn-dollar (5.9bn-pound) stake in the insurer Ping An is in doubt after Chinese authorities appeared to withdraw funding for part of the deal. The China Development Bank is believed to have reneged on a promise to back Thailand's Charoen Pokphand Group, the chosen bidder for the stake. According to reports in Asia, the CDB is concerned that the deal has become too complex. [The Independent]
Britain's biggest pub companies have been accused of "greedy" and "exploitative" behaviour towards their tenant landlords - and face fines for "unfair" treatment of the publicans. Business Secretary Vince Cable has declared war on pub companies who are "squeezing" their tenants through contracts that are "focused on short-term profit". Large companies such as Enterprise Inns (LSE: ETI.L - news) and Punch Taverns (Other OTC: PCTVF - news) , which lease their properties to tenant landlords, have been accused by campaigners of hastening the demise of Britain's pubs by "overcharging" for drinks and rent. [The Telegraph]
Passengers face potential rail fare rises of up to 21 per cent over the next five years to help fund a £37.5 billion upgrade of the railway. Campaigners are warning of widespread disruption as improvements are made to lines in the South, Midlands, North, Scotland and Wales. Unions meanwhile are threatening possible industrial unrest as rail bosses prepare to shed thousands of jobs to meet efficiency targets. Network Rail said that its investment programme outlined this morning would increase the number of seats during the morning rush hour into London by 20 per cent and by 32 per cent in nine other cities. It would also electrify 850 miles of track on the Great Western Main Line and Midland Main Line and connect Oxford to Bedford and Milton Keynes via a new electric railway linking the Great Western, Midland and West Coast lines. [The Times]
US oil imports will fall to their lowest level for more than 25 years next year, as production booms while demand grows only slowly, according to a government forecast. The US Energy Information Administration predicted that net imports of liquid fuels, including crude oil and petroleum products, would fall to about 6m barrels per day in 2014, their lowest level since 1987 and only about half their peak levels of more than 12m during 2004-07. The figures reflect the spectacular growth of US production thanks to the unlocking of "tight oil" reserves using hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling in states led by North Dakota and Texas. [Financial Times]
Ireland (OTC BB: IRLD - news) swept past a key milestone on its journey towards rehabilitation with international lenders yesterday when its first mainstream debt offering since the 2010 bailout was lapped up enthusiastically. The €2.5 billion syndicated fundraising was three times subscribed as more than 200 pension funds, asset managers and other institutional investors scrambled to lend to the debt-laden nation. The favourable response comes a little over two years after Dublin was forced to accept a €67.5 billion rescue from the European Union and International Monetary Fund to enable it to keep paying its bills. [The Times]
Shoppers looking for goose, venison and fine wines might usually be found in the aisles of Waitrose, but this year the discount chain Aldi offered all of the above at its trademark rock-bottom prices. The strategy was a success and Aldi watched sales shoot up by more than 30% in the 12 weeks up to Christmas, driving its share of the groceries market to an all-time high of 3.2%. Figures from the market researchers Kantar Worldpanel revealed the extent of Britain's polarised groceries market this Christmas, with the high-end supermarket Waitrose and discount chains, such as Aldi, Lidl and Iceland, all enjoying strong growth. [The Guardian]
Goldman Sachs and HSBC are expected to become the latest banks to settle with the US authorities over allegations they improperly foreclosed on homeowners. The deal is also expected to see Morgan Stanley and Ally Financial pay at least $1.5bn (£934m) in compensation to borrowers hurt by having their loans foreclosed in the aftermath of the banking crisis in 2008. According to sources cited by Bloomberg, the four banks could reach a settlement as early as this week, days after ten lenders agreed their own $8.5bn deal with the authorities. [The Telegraph]
Europe's top telecoms executives are discussing the creation of a pan-European infrastructure network to unite the continent's fragmented national markets, following prompting from Brussels to consider more radical options. The idea of pooling telecoms infrastructure emerged at a private meeting between Joaquín Almunia, the EU's competition chief, and bosses of Europe's biggest groups, including Deutsche Telekom, France Telecom, Telecom Italia and Telefonica.

Bankruptcy Law Questions? Ask a Bankruptcy Lawyer Now.
Hello and thank you for your question. I apologize for it taking so long to find someone to answer your question.
It will not effect your rights as to the contract as long as you continue to make the required payments as per your contract.
Depending on whether or not this asset of the owners is exempt or not, the bankruptcy trustee may take the asset, which is the contract with you and not the land, and sell if to someone else. If that happens you will just have to make the payments to whoever bought the property.
To be safe, I would still talk with a bankruptcy attorney just to make sure that the owner listed your contract in her bankruptcy petition correctly.

Sure sounds like buzzwords. All these themes are is mini-versions of some buzzword that they use to make people think they are doing the right thing or to remind them to proclaim the Kingdumb (=go out more in field circus) or to proclaim the growth of the Tower (negative growth in all countries where Internet is widespread).
As for me, I will not volitionally contribute to any of these things coming true. I refuse to walk into a Kingdumb Hell or out in service--they will have to drag me in or tie me to a board and carry me in. And they had better keep constant watch on me while I am out in field circus: I will take a pen and write some apostate Web sites on the magazine or tract. Hopefully that will create a blown call, and contribute to stagnation and shrink in Jehovah's house.
Cor, they're mostly the same words in random orders, lol.
When released on DVD, will years 1981 - 1985 be available as the box set 'The Kingdom Quadrilogy'?

4:10 DRAMA: Youths Who Remember Their Creator Now
I was supposed to be in this. Not in biblical style clothing either, dressed like an American no less. My sister and I refused to do it so they got a pair of stooges in. There was something inside me which was uncomfortable with the whole concept, I mean would it have killed them to get some British voices recorded, just so that it wasn't so freakishly weird.

The Sony FS700 is one camera that I was really looking forward to checking out up close and personal at NAB 2012. As you can tell from the images, it looks and feels a lot like the FS100. Most of the controls and connections are in the same location, so if you are familiar with the FS100, the FS700 isn't a different world. [Read more…]
Camtrol Prime 33 and Sniper 1080
Camtrol was on-hand at NAB 2012 showing off some of its new wares, including the updated Camtrol Prime 33 for HDSLRs and small-ish camcorders (an upgrade from the Prime 22), as well as the Sniper 1080 for the action-oriented POV crowd.
I caught up with the Camtrol guys for an introduction to these new products, which you can see in the video below.
[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uiuggLQjbZk&w=640&h=360]
You can find Camtrol gear here at B&H Photo.
Blackmagic Cinema Camera Available for Pre-Order
B&H has the Blackmagic Cinema Camera available for pre-order now. This camera was the big surprise of NAB 2012 and stole quite a bit of attention from the several mainstream camera makers. Everywhere I went, people were asking "Have you seen Blackmagic's camera?"
The initial excitement over this camera reminds me of the 5D Mark II release back in 2008. The $3k price for a camera that shoots RAW video on an SSD drive, and uses Canon EF mount lenses is quite remarkable.
You can get your pre-order in here at B&H.
indiSYSTEM AIRjib and AIRjib XL at NAB 2012
[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBHlGostELo&w=640&h=360]
I stopped by the indiSYSTEM booth at NAB 2012 to check out some of their latest gear. A couple of cool and very affordable new products are the AIRjib and AIRjib XL.
For those looking for a lightweight and compact jib, the AIRjib models are very appealing. These jibs are counterweighted by 1-liter or 2-liter bottles. The systems collapse and are setup tool-free. The AIRjib is so compact that it will breakdown to within carry-on luggage requirements.
Check out more details in indiSYSTEM's website.
Key Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 Updates
Adobe's booth at NAB 2012 is a madhouse. The seating area for every speaker is full and the aisles surrounding the booth are packed as well. Lots of third-party vendors are also showing off CS6 products as well. Adobe is clearly on the march with the new apps in Production Premium CS6.
I sat down with Premiere Pro Product Manager, Al Mooney, on Monday at NAB 2012 to discuss some of the new features in the app that is buzzing among editors at NAB. [Read more…]

"Displaced Congolese are constantly threatened by various groups and militias who accuse them of collaborating with one armed group or another," said Adrian Edwards, the spokesperson in Geneva of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR).
The agency reported that since the last quarter of 2011, armed groups have been intruding on camps for internally displaced personsNorth Kivu is home to more than 600,000 IDPs, over one third of the 1.7 million displaced across the country. (IDPs) in North Kivu province, violating their civilian character.
The main affected camps are in Nyanzale, Mweso and Birambizo in the Masisi territory, about 90 kilometres north-west of the provincial capital of Goma.
Mr. Edwards said that seven IDPs were beaten to death on 13 December because they had refused to take part in forced labour imposed by the Democratic Liberation Forces of Rwanda (FDLR). UNHCR has also received reports of IDPs being tortured, he added.
The ongoing violence is also hindering humanitarian access to the camps and preventing aid workers from protecting and assisting the displaced people. Currently, only eight IDP camps out of 31 are accessible to humanitarian workers without military escort, said Mr. Edwards.
"UNHCR calls on all parties to respect the civilian character of IDP sites in North Kivu. We are appealing to provincial authorities to increase security in and around the camps," he stated.
The agency is also liaising with the UN peacekeeping mission in DRC, known as MONUSCO, to increase the presence of security forces in areas most in need of protection and to ensure the safety of civilians living in the IDP sites.
There are almost 79,000 displaced Congolese currently living in 31 IDP camps in North Kivu. Many of them cannot go home due to continued insecurity and renewed fighting between armed groups and the military in their villages.
North Kivu is home to more than 600,000 IDPs, over one third of the 1.7 million displaced across the country.

Andrew Shinnie hopes that the Inverness public will come out to support today's clash against St Mirren as he and his team-mates look to continue their goalscoring streak.
Caley Thistle have scored 53 goals already this season as they challenge on three fronts and go into the game in second place in the Premier League.
And playmaker Shinnie scored his 10th goal of the season in Saturday's 4-1 home win over Dundee, which was watched by 3,003 people.
The Scotland international said: "It's a tough period for people and, obviously, it's quite expensive to come to football.
"We are doing our bit on the field, we are playing as well as we can, we are scoring goals, we are entertaining so, hopefully, they can come along and support us for what will be another tough game on Boxing Day."
Inverness were not at their best against Dundee but still looked capable of scoring whenever they went forward.
The victory followed a 4-4 draw at Dundee United, where they came back from three goals down.
And Shinnie admitted they believe they can score in every game – as they have done in 24 matches this season.
"There was a little bit of panic the other week when we went 3-0 down but even then we still didn't capitulate," he said.
"We just thought 'look, let's just play and we'll score goals'. We scored and got back in the game."
Inverness equalled their 42-goal haul from all of last season on Saturday, with Billy McKay taking his SPL tally to 15.
"Last season Billy did a lot of hard work, which kind of went unnoticed and other people took the limelight with the goals," Shinnie said.
"Jonny Hayes and Gregory Tade were our top scorers and they left, so people said we would struggle to score this season but Billy has been brilliant, he has taken all his chances. He is flying. I have managed to chip in with quite a few. People all over the park are chipping in with goals."
St Mirren boss Danny Lennon is taking succour from Inverness' goals-against column as he prepares for their game at the Tulloch Caledonian Thistle Stadium tomorrow.
Butcher's men have also conceded 33, one more than the Buddies and just two less than Dundee, and it is that statistic which Lennon will focus on in his team talk.
"Inverness are on a fantastic run and deserve all the plaudits they are getting," the former Cowdenbeath boss said. "They are scoring goals for fun, but they also leak goals."

When spring hits, I always feel the need to add a little sun-kissed color to my face. I'm naturally pale and don't have the ability to tan in the slightest, but I think that any shade of skin can get a refreshing pick-me-up from a nice bronzing powder! Instead of searching around for the best bronzer out there, I decided to make my own!
I've always loved the beauty tip that says, "If you wouldn't eat it, don't put it on your skin," and this recipe caters perfectly to that advice. An added bonus: It smells absolutely incredible.
What you need:
(If you can, try to get all organic ingredients – they'll be the best for your skin.)
Ground cinnamon
Ground nutmeg
Cocoa powder
An empty, sealable container
What you do:
Mix the ingredients together – it's as simple as that! Play around with different amounts of each to reach your desired color. If the color is too light, add more cocoa powder. If you want more of a glow, add more cinnamon. :) I was a little nervous about using cinnamon at first because I have very sensitive skin, but my skin is totally fine with it!
Once the ingredients are mixed, fill your empty container with the bronzer. I found this little glass jar at a flea market a while ago, and this was the perfect excuse to finally use it!
I love that this bronzer is totally portable and has no expiration date — two things that you don't find in all homemade beauty products. You can just throw it in your makeup bag and take it with you for the day! Simple, natural, and delicious.

10 Good Reasons for an End-of-Summer Potluck—3
1. You're sad because your child is starting school (that sweet little vulnerable person who has also exasperated you plenty) and you need some emotional back-up.
2. You're gleeful (but it wouldn't seem right to say it out loud) that the summer is almost over and life is about to become quieter and more routine. (Can't the sound of a school bus be really great?!) Time for a little celebrating.
3. You haven't seen your neighbors very much this summer with everyone's comings and goings.
4. You haven't seen your sisters or brothers much lately either.
5. There's a great Labor-Day concert in the park. Invite your good friends to join you for a potluck picnic before the music.
6. Football season is about to start—and everyone needs company. Those who watch football and those who don't.
7. Your local Borders closed, so how else will you find other book-lovers and readers to talk to?
8. Your yard and flowerbeds are still beautiful, and you'd like to show them off at least once more before things turn brown and start dying.
9. You've survived summer's drought or a surprise earthquake or unspeakable hurricane winds and water—and you'd like to celebrate modestly.
10. You found a recipe you can't wait to try, but it makes too much for your household. So you need to share it with friends who love food. Stage a potluck. Ask each guest to bring a recipe they've been wanting to try, but it makes too much. . .
There have got to be other good reasons for bringing on a potluck! What are you thinking of?!
Here's a recipe from our upcoming new cookbook—Fix-It and Enjoy-It Potluck Heaven. Make it if you're hosting or being a guest.
Tortellini Caesar Salad
Fix-It and Enjoy-It Potluck Heaven
Makes 10 servings
Prep Time: 30-35 minutes
Cooking Time: 15 minutes
9-oz. pkg. frozen cheese tortellini
½ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup milk
¾ cup shredded Parmesan cheese, divided
2 Tbsp. lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, minced
8 cups torn romaine lettuce, or other salad greens
1 cup seasoned croutons, optional
halved cherry tomatoes, optional
1. Cook tortellini according to package directions. Drain and rinse with cold water.
2. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, milk, ½ cup Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, and garlic. Mix well.
3. Put cooled tortellini in large bowl.
4. Add romaine and remaining ¼ cup Parmesan.
5. Just before serving, drizzle with dressing and toss to coat.
6. Top with croutons and tomatoes, if you wish.
1. Tomatoes add great color and flavor. I always use them.
2. I don't always have croutons on hand, but they add great crunch and subtle flavor.
3. I dress this salad lightly and use the remaining dressing for other green, leafy salads later in the week.

Nine-year-old Willow Pinkett Smith is rapidly replacing Suri Cruise as the most stylish celebrity offspring in Hollywood.
The daughter of Will Smith and wife Jada, Willow already has a record contract with Jay-Z under her belt (check out the single, Whip My Hair, here) and this week has been gracing the front row at Milan Fashion Week.
Willow has had a stylish undercut for a few months now, but halfway through fashion week the mini fashionista changed things up with long, braided extensions. At the Dolce & Gabbana show, Willow opted for an unusual plaited fin, which was later undone for a cool Kid 'n' Play-esque hi-top.
When I was nine, my usual look was school-approved hairband and plaits – I don't know whether to be impressed or depressed!

Better depression treatment for college students will be focus of U-M conference
Fifth annual Depression on College Campuses conference sponsored by U-M Depression Center will bring together hundreds of experts, including student leaders
ANN ARBOR, MI – Every year, more than a thousand college students die by suicide, and thousands more attempt to kill themselves. Tens of thousands of other students struggle with depression, bipolar disorder and related problems such as addiction, prescription drug and alcohol abuse, anorexia and bulimia, and self-mutilation or "cutting".
Colleges and universities across the country are working to help students understand these issues and get help. On March 19 and 20, representatives from many campuses will gather at the University of Michigan to share information about what has worked for them and to get the latest research results.
The fifth annual Depression on College Campuses Conference, organized by the University of Michigan Depression Center in collaboration with many U-M schools and colleges, takes place at a time when new national statistics suggest that suicide is on the rise among teenagers, and when parents are worried about the safety of treating depressed young people with antidepressant medications.
At the same time, colleges are struggling with an ever-increasing demand for counseling services, and with legal issues involving suicidal students.
The conference will begin with a first-person account of what it's like to develop and get help for depression while in college, from Aimee Belisle, who sought treatment for depression while a student at Bentley College, and later made depression awareness her platform during her time as the 2004 Miss Rhode Island. She is now a member of the American Psychiatric Association's Presidential Task Force on Mental Health on College Campuses. Other students will also share stories of their own experience with depression in college during a special panel on March 20.
The conference will also feature speakers from around U-M, and from institutions such as Harvard, Stanford, Cornell, Penn State and New York University. John Greden, M.D., executive director of the UMDC and chair of the Department of Psychiatry at the U-M Medical School, will give opening and closing remarks.
Several conference sessions will focus on treatment options including talk therapy, carefully monitored medication regimens, Internet-based tools, and telemedicine consultations with psychiatrists for students at rural colleges. Panel discussions will examine University policies and protocols for helping severely distressed students, and also identify key sources of data on student mental health which can be used to help determine appropriate programs and services.
Much of the conference is designed to give college personnel, mental health professionals, student group organizers and others the kind of specific information they need to bring about change on their own campuses. Special breakout sessions for academic advisors, campus administrators, mental health clinicians, faculty, student housing officials and students will foster that sharing.
The conference will also include presentations about current research. For example, Daniel Eisenberg, Ph.D., a member of the UMDC and assistant professor in the U-M School of Public Health, and other researchers, will discuss surveys that are trying to accurately assess how many college students are experiencing or getting treatment for depression, anxiety and related issues. Eisenberg leads the Healthy Minds Study, which will be fielded at nine schools around the country this spring. (For more information, visit www.healthymindsstudy.net)
Another highlight of the conference will be the presentation of the first-ever Student Mental Health Advocate Award during a banquet lunch on March 19. Student advocates around the country have poured their energy into raising awareness of depression symptoms, suicide warning signs, and treatment options among their fellow students, and the award was created to recognize those who have made the greatest impact.
The award will be presented by Kathy Cronkite, an author and advocate who has spoken publicly of her own struggle with depression. Nominations are being accepted until Feb. 16 at www.med.umich.edu/depression/docc/award.htm.
Registration for the conference is free for students, including physicians in training. The fee for all others is $99 before March 1, and $115 afterward. Group discounts are available for five or more people from the same campus who register together before March 1. Lunch on March 19 is available for $20 per person.
Continuing medical education credit is available for physicians, psychologists, nurses and social workers.
To register or for more information, visit www.med.umich.edu/depression/docc, send e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com or call 734-763-7495.
The University of Michigan Depression Center is the nation's only comprehensive center dedicated to patient care, research, education and public policy in depression and bipolar disorder. Founded in 2001, its mission is to detect depression and bipolar disorders early, treat them earlier and more effectively, prevent recurrences and progression, counteract stigma, and improve public policy. More than 160 faculty, staff and students from throughout the University are members of the Center.

Sport Relief 2014: Davina McCall left sobbing by fundraising efforts

EastEnders' Perry Fenwick reveals which former character he'd like to see back on Albert Square
Television presenter Davina McCall has described how her arduous charity exploits for Sport Relief last month left her in a "very dark mental place".
Davina, 46, suffered an emotional meltdown during her fundraising efforts for BT Sport Relief Challenge: Davina - Beyond Breaking Point, due to be aired on BBC1 on Thursday 20 March, ahead of Sport Relief 2014 on Friday 21 March.
The mother-of-three embarked on a week-long 500-mile run, cycle and swim from Edinburgh to London, raising more than £750,000 for good causes and shedding plenty of tears along the way.
Davina said the sheer physical exertion resulted in her "sobbing my guts out".
"It was like somebody had opened the floodgates and I let out every single bit of grief that I had.
"I kept crying every day... I think I was just so tired that I had no defences, and I was just sobbing at everything. "
She added: "I'm normally a chipper person. If you're in a positive state of mind you can cope with pain and jolly yourself along, but I had moments when I went into a very dark mental place."
The former heroin addict admitted she doubted herself throughout the challenge, but persevered after seeing the work her charity ordeal would help fund at a Sport Relief project in Africa before setting off.
She also said the memory of her half-sister, Caroline, kept her going. Caroline died in 2012 after being diagnosed with cancer. "I felt like she was with me [on the challenge] a lot."

A Prairie Home Companion with Garrison Keillor
Post to the Host
Host Garrison Keillor answers your questions about life, love, writing, authors, and of course, A Prairie Home Companion.
How do I get noticed?
October 4, 2011 | 10 Comments
Dear GK:
I recently lost my job at a corporation and for the last 8 months have tried to re-invent myself. At the age of 44, I've gone back to my passion for writing. I was hoping to get noticed with my blog, but with so many blogs these days its like screaming to get noticed at the Super Bowl; feels like being just another fly on the wall. How do I get noticed? How do I get someone interested in what I have to say, write and do? It seems like you have a better chance at getting struck by lightning than getting noticed.
The Broke Boat Broker Blogger.
Adopt reverse strategy and fly under the radar while saying and doing extraordinary things. Be anonymous, self-effacing, invisible. Use a pseudonym. Refuse requests for interviews. Don't endorse products. Fight every attempt to bring you into the limelight. Unplug the phone. Withdraw from the world and the world may beat a path to your door and ---- here's the pay-off ---- you can then pretend to regard attention as a great burden and a nuisance, a privilege granted to but few.

Dear GK,
No one knows what the oboe is, as you can see by my video above, filmed in the cultural meca of NYC and in front of Lincoln Center, no less. I'm a one-woman crusader to get people to realize the oboe is NOT the bassoon....everyone thinks it's large, or they see a bassoon and call it the oboe.
I've played on the stages of Carnegie, Jazz at Lincoln Center, and in Broadway pits, but I want to bring my oboe playing to the general public. How can we get them to LISTEN?? (I hope you'll watch my video...it is pretty funny.) Thank you Garrison. By the way, my Eastman friend harpist Min Kim plays with your wife in Minneapolis! All best, Keve Wilson
This was quite fun though surprising! As a child of the'50s in rural Calif., all elementary school orchestras had a woodwind section with several oboes. The classrooms were stuffed to overflowing with one teacher to 40-50 kids but the arts (and math and science) were held in high regard.
Yes, we need to take notice and listen closely.
Your work is beautiful Keve. Thank-you!
Add some scandal to your life - that's how! Yep, got that on The Prairie Home Companion! Am a faithful student.
Dear Mr. Keillor,
I have been a loyal fan of yours since the beginning of your show back in '74 when I wrote a letter to WILL radio in Champaign, Illinois, asking who you were (they didn't know!), and looking Lake Wobegon up on the map (I couldn't find it!) My question has to do with the recent News: it seems to have been shortened by about 5 minutes. Why so? Also, why was the News included in the first hour this past week?
Robert W. Emmaus
to The Broke Boat Broker Blogger:
The best way to get noticed is to do something that attracts attention. You need to stand out from the rest of us, and if that requires some radical action, then so be it. Good luck!
Just don't get arrested...unless you're doing something great for humanity or the planet.
To The Broke Boat Broker Blogger:
I feel terrible for you B^4 but you have entered a winner-take-all profession in writing. Some of us have spent literally decades on this task, have completed 11 novels only to see barely one published. Writing is no longer something you do to pay the bills--but to keep your soul out of hack. You need to love writing. That is the only way you will even get an "at bat". You will most likely strike out. Oh well. It's a life. Enjoy the ride and find something else to pay the bills.
Please accept our condolences on the sudden loss of Tom Keith. After listening to A Prairie Home Companion for all these years, it feels as though we've lost someone from our own family. If you would, please thank his family for sharing him with the rest of us. Just as people that Tom never met enjoyed his wonderful talents, people his family doesn't know are saddened by his passing.
Our hearts go out to all of you on the Prairie over the loss of Tom Keith. He was a friend through our radio and we are truly saddened and will miss him very much. Please give our heartfelt sympathy to his family.
I loved Tom Keith and his voices and his humor. For me, Tom brought back old time radio drama with the sound effects I've missed for decades. Rest in Peace.

On Wednesday morning, Gov. Pat McCrory held a ceremony on the campus of North Carolina State University to sign Senate Bill 786, the Energy Modernization Act. Instead of a ceremony it should have been referred to as the unconditional surrender of our state�s green heritage to the petrochemical industry. The Governor should have been ashamed to sign a bill that is the inverse of our State�s motto �Esse Quam Videri�.
By allowing the petrochemical industry and its cronies to dictate the terms to the citizens of North Carolina, the Governor waved the white flag and surrendered our mountains, beaches, rivers, streams, lakes and farmland to a rapacious and secretive industry, who refuse to let the public know the chemical composition of its fracking fluid and is consistently willing to avoid what we are all taught to do in kindergarten--clean up your own mess. It�s as if the Dan River fiasco never occurred nor tens of thousands of citizens had weighed in over the past four years on �fracking� urging caution and reasonable due diligence. One can only wonder whether �Gasland� ever made the viewing list at the Governor�s Mansion or the General Assembly.
The bill was fast-tracked through the Senate and House at the beginning of short session and it allows drilling permits to be issued sixty (60) days after the state Mining and Energy Commission (MEC) finalizes rules for the industry. Opponents of the bill, including environmental groups from around the country, said lawmakers broke their promise to review and approve the rules before a statewide suspension on drilling could be lifted, but Republican leadership used a parliamentary maneuver to halt Democratic proposals in a move allowing amendments to be killed without a recorded vote.
At the end of day, our Governor and the legislators behind this law are either willing dupes for a well funded and slick industry who can recognize a �rube� a mile away or they gave up fighting for the people and unconditionally surrendered our mountains, beaches, farmland and waterways without a fight. Either way these are not leaders we want with us in the �proverbial foxhole� and they have clearly demonstrated to the people of North Carolina why change is needed in Raleigh now.
Randy Voller, chairman, North Carolina Democratic Party

text: Negro de Anglona is a stylish restaurant in Madrid created in a converted 17th century Spanish palace, Palacio de Anglona, by architecture and interior design virtuoso, Luis Galliusi. Known for his ability to combine unexpected elements and to create elegant spaces, Galliusi has designed houses, stores, hotels, restaurants, offices and clinics in Madrid, Paris, Cairo, Mexico, Morocco, Indonesia and Miami. His client list includes Manolo Blahnik, Chanel and Phillippe Starck. In the seven rooms of Negro de Anglona, Galliusi has shown his usual flair. He has combined a strong, black-and-white color palette - including enormous black-and-white, back-lit images of castles - with ornate floor-to-ceiling drapery and other, strong decorative elements. The task of overseeing the predominantly Mediterranean menu has been trusted to the 24-year-old chef, Aitor Garcia Cerro. By Tuija Seipell

ERA Team VP – We've Refreshed Our Name… and Our Logo… But We're Still the Same Great Team!
Since 1983 the Vacation Properties Group has been Chautauqua County's leading residential and second homes real estate company, and the most experienced firm offering comprehensive real estate sales services, vacation rental management and property/condominium association management.
In 2004, the Vacation Properties Group's real estate division affiliated with one of the leading worldwide real estate franchise systems, ERA®, and expanded beyond Chautauqua County's residential, lake and Chautauqua Institution markets into Cattaraugus County's Ellicottville winter ski market (our office in Ellicottville was formerly known as Century 21 Town & Country).

In 2011, ERA Team VP Real Estate merged with Century 21 Unlimited, a well established real estate company based in Cuba, NY, serving the real estate markets of Southwestern New York and Northwestern Pennsylvania.

All offices are now operating as ERA Team VP Real Estate.

It's no secret that I'm pretty obsessed with Girls (along with almost every other 20-something I know). It's refreshing, realistic and above all, hilariously entertaining. Whether you're a Hannah, a Jessa, a Shoshanna or a Marni, there's a little something in it for everyone (and I guarantee you'll say at least once or twice: Oh my god, that's me). One of the best things to come out of Girls? My newest girl crush, Allison Williams. She's can't-look-away gorgeous and I have first-hand knowledge that she's just as sweet in real life. Plus, she's making waves as a serious style scene-stealer. Check out a few of my favorite looks below–and the pieces you'll need to rock them your way!
What celeb's style are you absolutely loving right now?

Lemon Oat Bars Recipe
A sweet oat mixture does double-duty as crust and topping for these refreshing lemon bars from Margaret Scoresby of Mosinee, Wisconsin. "One of my college roommates gave me this recipe many years ago, and I've been making it for my family for years," she says.
- 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup old-fashioned oats
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2/3 cup cold butter
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup lemon juice
- 1-1/2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
- 1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, salt and cinnamon; cut in butter until crumbly. Press 3 cups into a greased 9-in. square baking pan; set remaining oat mixture aside. Bake at 350° for 10 minutes.
- 2. In a small bowl, combine the milk, lemon juice and peel. Pour over crust. Sprinkle with reserved oat mixture. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until edges are brown. Cool on a wire rack. Yield: 9 servings.
