Kazaguruma is one of the traditional,popular and inexpensive Japanese toy. It is also a very well-acquainted toy in western country. What is Kazaguruma? Today, we introduce you about this toy!
Kazaguruma is an another name of windmill. It is a toy that play with whirling in the breeze.
There are various theories about the origin of windmill. According to a literature written in Edo era(17th century), it is said that the origin of windmill is Gion in Kyoto(a city of geisha) in Heian era(8th-12th century). There is another theory that states that windmill is an original toy of China, and is introduced into Japan in Heian era.
In either case, windmill is a popular toy in Japan from 8th century to the present.
To make Kazaguruma is very easy.
First, you should prepare a piece of paper. If you can prepare Chiyogami, Japanese paper with coloured figures, you can make more beautiful Kazaguruma. Secondly, you should cut it. Make a cut from the 4 corners. (don't separate it). Then, gather 4 corners to the centre, and fasten it to a stick. It is done.
Kazaguruma is very simple toy, that's why it is beloved for such a long period.
Kazaguruma is very well-known toy in Japan.
As we introduced above, it was already popular in Japan at 8th century as a children's toy. Kazaguruma is also popular as the souvenir of visiting temples and shrines in Edo era. Even today, there are some temples and shrines sell Kazaguruma as the souvenir.
Kazaguruma is also a seasonal word in haiku (traditional Japanese poemof 17 syllables). Kazaguruma as a seasonal word symbolizes spring, because it was on sale in spring one time.
Kazaguruma is not an exclusive Japanese toy, however, it is very popular in Japan for long time.
When you want to feel Japan, please make Kazaguruma!

Gettin' old
Here is what they got:
They aren't THAT old, they are only 4 and 6. But I HAD to go and check out the calculator and start a huge argument between what they would look like if they were humans.
Mikko: I would look better, you know.
Jax: No you wouldn't. I would be so happy and not old and stinky, unlike you.
Mikko: ACTUALLY, for your information, Siamese cats are almost odorless, and they rarely need a bath, if they would even let the human get them into the bathtub, that is.
Jax: DON'T CARE!!!
Mikko: This is what you would look like:
And this is what I would look like:
Look at me, all nice and cheery. And you, grouchy and all shaking your fists and yelling "GET OFF MY LAWN YOU WHIPPERSNAPPERS!" *Snickers*
You know, Mikko, you are sort of right. Sorry Jax.
Anyways, if you want to check out that calculator, visit Sparkle's blog today!
Do your kitties think they are getting old? How old are they?
Dogs welcome too!
Thanks for reading!

A breakdown at 27 led TV star Peter Andre to reconsider what it really means to be a man
In association with Movember
YOU could be forgiven for thinking that reality TV star and singer Peter Andre is one of the luckiest blokes in the world.
Successful and good looking, with a beautiful wife and gorgeous kids, from the outside it seems he hit the big time young and stayed there.
It's hard to imagine him worrying about life, losing all self-confidence or starting to wonder about the point of it all. But the truth is Peter, 44, has faced tough times too – in fact he has suffered a breakdown.
The dad of four is the first to admit it looks unbelievable from the outside. He said: "I got a recording deal at 16, live on TV, My parents were incredibly loving, I had a good family, I had a good upbringing.
"So why, at 27, out of nowhere, did I suddenly feel unwell and anxious? It had never happened before but bang, I had what they call a breakdown – or a breakthrough, actually, because once you get through it you've actually broken through something.
"I suffered panic attacks for more than two years. What I've learnt is that mentalillness is a major problem but because we can't see it we think nothing is wrong. But let me tell you, it is scarier than anything you could ever imagine."
Peter is not alone. The stark truth is that more men than you might think are silently battling mental health problems – in the UK, suicide is the biggest killer of men under 45. Part of the reason for this,experts say, is that men tend not to talk about their problems.
Peter said: "According to the dictionary, 'manly' means being bold, valiant, fearless, macho. This is the image of the real man's man, but I remember hearing many times that it takes a real man to show his emotions or to cry.
"My message to people going through this is it is beatable. I feel I have overcome so many of my demons, but there are a lot of men out there that haven't and think they can't."
In the UK, men die on average four years earlier than women. Suicide is one cause, prostate cancer and testicular cancer are too often the others. One man dies every 45 minutes from prostate cancer in the UK and testicular cancer rates have doubled in the past 50 years.
Movember is a global charity with 5 million supporters worldwide and it works year-round to raise money and awareness for vital men's health projects including research, education and support programmes for men and their families. The charity has funded more than 1,200 projects in 21 countries.
Peter says: "This November I am going to support Movember by growing a moustache. I'm proud to do this. It's an incredible cause and people really do need our help. So let's do this together."

Title: Victoria
Rating: 2 Stars
If you know of this movie, you probably know of its stunt. Not only is the movie set in real time (as in the length of the movie is the elapsed time that the movie plot takes place in), but it was actually done in one long take.
This approach was made most famous recently with Birdman, where through very clever editing, the movie appeared to be one long shot (although some of the scenes were indeed long).
Some years ago, I'd watched Russian Ark, which is truly a one shot film. This movie really was pretty much a stunt. Although it was clearly very intensely staged, prepared, and choreographed, there was virtually no plot. It was essentially a series of set scenes taking place in the Winter Palace in St Petersburg.
This was something different. This was a movie with real characters and a real plot, told in a two hour movie in real time with one camera and one take.
Victoria is a Spaniard living in Germany, clearly a little lost and looking for adventure. In the early hours of the morning after leaving a dance club, she meets up with four Germans. They get to know each, they bond with each other, she falls for one of them, one of the Germans is an ex-con who has to pay a debt to a gangster, which involves them robbing a bank, getting into a shootout, with dire consequences for all involved.
Let me repeat, this entire story is told in one two hour block of time. There are no montages, there is no fade to black, there is no time passing. All of this transpires in one two hour block of time.
The movie is shot with one person holding a camera. The characters go on walks, climb onto rooftops, get in and out of cars, and enter / leave buildings. Granted, it looks like all of the action takes place within maybe 6 blocks or so, but that's an impressive amount of action that the cameraman has to keep in front of him.
The part I liked best was the actress playing Victoria. A lot of the movie rides on her taking up with a bunch of strangers and within an hour or so be robbing banks with them. She has a great presence and she does do a good job portraying the somewhat desperate carefree attitude of a person coming to grips with never being able to achieve her childhood dreams.
The plot, necessarily, is somewhat implausible. After all, that is a lot to cram into one two hour block.
Also, although I appreciate the ambition of the attempt, in all honesty the necessarily occasionally unsteady / unfocused camera work left me car sick. I actually watched it in two viewings because of that (so yes, my watching of the movie took one more take than the movie actually did).
So, I appreciated the attempt and I did like Victoria. I downgraded it because quite frankly, I probably would have never watched it if it wasn't for the stunt. The movie itself was at best of average entertainment.

In Genesis, the Bible let us know that after getting things done, God rested on the seventh day. In our busy lives, work and personal commitments rarely subside enough for us to rest, let alone focus on the not-so-critical stuff. Here's what David Allen had to say on a recent GTD Times post:
Every once in a while, schedule a day for the not-so-critical stuff. Otherwise the got-to's can eat up your whole life, and the secondary things then become annoying got-to's later on, or just create a frustration factor that mounts up.
David Allen
We might not get our full day of rest, but it makes sense to block out a 14th day or 21st day to knock out some of those lingering "Next Actions" that our eyes skip over, and over (and over.)

B. Brian Blair [RF Video Shoot Interview]
The Good
Brian Blair has managed to have some fringe relevance after retiring due to his political career, infamous altercation with his son that got some news and more infamously his role as the Iron Sheik's favorite target. I feared this shoot interview would not give enough time to the noteworthy parts of his career to focus on those parts, but luckily it did not. I've heard a few shorter interviews with him and new that he'd be a candidate for a solid interview with good stories and perspective, but this was much better than I anticipated. Blair is really an excellent storyteller and he shares some of his classic like Paul Orndorff biting off Tony Atlas's ear that you may have heard before. Brian Blair comes across as the most likable and honest guy as he describes himself being bullied as a child, weeping over misfortunes in his life and he gets choked up and emotional about a few individuals. He just seems like genuine nice guy and you wonder how the Iron Sheik took to hating him the way he does.
The Bad
If you wanted to here Brian Blair cut a promo on the Sheik, you're not exactly going to get that. Does he have choice words for him? Yes. Does he hold back? Not really and actually makes a pretty touchy accusation. I imagine many people, considering Brian Blair's recent news items, would be disappointed by the calm, cool and collected responses that Blair gives. Many people might disagree with his thoughts on a variety of topics, but even if you think he probably was not the tough guy he makes himself out to be or if you disagree with idea of a flat-tax, you'd probably still see him as well-spoken and thoughtful.
The Rating: ****1/4

Re: How a single dose of antidepressants can trigger PSSD: a hypothesis
Posted: Sun Apr 14, 2019 1:15 pm
taarn wrote:I've developed something like PTSD to sleep, or to the fear of not being able to sleep and having to work the next day. When it was close to sleep time or I was close to my bedroom I started experiencing hot flashes and severe anxiety and obsessive thoughts. It was so severe that it was totally taking over my life in the end. Only benzos helped, sometimes I had to combine them with zolpidem.
It was very hard to believe but only a few pills of mirtazapine was able to completely erase this obsession. Also including general anxiety, OCD, my emotions and sexual function.
What you say totally makes sense regarding my experience.
Does it make sense that if you're already in an overexcited high glutamate state, hence currently having bad anxiety attack episodes, that it also raises your chances to develop long-term or permanent issues when taking different brain altering drugs/medications?
Also the question arise, what are these LTP/LTD changes exactly? Which brain circuits are being altered and how that have such kind of negative effects on sexuality?
I don't want to detract from the neuro talk here, but I used to have this obsession too. For me it was most of my adolescence on and off and then severe at the beginning of college. It can flare up occasionally but once I let my body take control of when I need to sleep, it's gotten a lot better. For example I have learned that my body WILL sleep when it NEEDS it. The biggest fear of mine was having to go face people and places the next day when I knew I'd be tired and anxious - especially bad when I was working in a hospital or helping with surgeries and felt that I NEEDED to be totally aware of my surroundings at all times - it was a control thing for me as well.
I think I finally realized that I had moved past this obsession when I did Ketamine. After Ketamine I wasn't tired as much so often I'd lay awake at night and then the next day still have energy and be ok. This was eye-opening for me, really helped extinguish a life-long obsession. Therein lies the power of psychoactive drugs, in my opinion.
So moving on to Psilocybin (a very big interest of mine) - Mesolimbo may be interested in this. I will actually take some of the recent Psilocybin posts and put them in that thread because I feel I am talking about it in places besides where it is meant to go. HPPD is definitely real, and it's hard to understand if you haven't taken the drugs. I've always been a very imaginative person and one who is sensitive to the environment. Therefore, HPPD really scared me. I noticed myself checking and seeing if I had HPPD in the days after Psilocybin. This was really no more than OCD behavior and I treated it as such. I've been lucky to have an overwhelmingly positive experience with Psilocybin. That being said it does change things. It's interesting to note that in the studies most people with HPPD don't mind it too much, it's just the more severe cases or the OCD people who are really bothered by it. Anyways, you start to pick up on the weird psychedelic nature of life, especially when you are tripping, but also afterwards as well. You realize that there is a fine line between reality and hallucination. For example: if you want to know what I'm talking about stare at a wooden floor someday. After a while the afterimages and halos will start to make the grains glow and they'll appear to wobble or waver. That's basically you standing on the edge of hallucination. It only takes around 0.2g of shrooms for trying this activity to be fairly psychedelic if I'm in meditation. It's a slider and you start here at these basic things and then scale up to seeing hieroglyphics on the bathroom wall as you increase dosage. You don't realize that until after Psilocybin (i didn't at least). I am aware of being able to make my life feel psychedelic for years (as I describe above), but I was never aware of it being so close to hallucination. So I think HPPD is very subjective and confusing topic. I don't think anyone who takes a psychedelic really sees the world the same way again, but an overwhelming percentage of the time that's a good thing. For example it taught me how to fight (or accept) my obsessional thinking (work in progress). The world would be a much better place if they were accepted and treated like medicine/tools. Art would be better, governments would care more about people, etc.
I get visual snow maybe once a month. Happened yesterday. I never knew what it was for decades until I found it when people were talking about it in relation to HPPD. Usually stress induced and may be from migraines also. Usually triggered by bright, cloudy skies on dreary days. Lasts a minute or less, less if I don't think about it. It looks like bright white dots flying across my vision in circles. I don't think it's any worse after Psilocybin than before.
My sexuality was markedly better when I was microdosing psilocybin, but I was taking between 0.2-0.3g shrooms for my microdoses - which are higher than suggested, I know. I stopped for a few reasons. First of all, I started disliking feeling "active". I went from looking forward to my dosing days to treating it as a mandatory 6 hours when I couldn't do very much else but sit around and wait for it to wear off. My eyes were like saucers and on several occasions it was painful to go outside because I'd want to freak out when I felt on that borderline of tripping in public. Sexuality was better though, and since I've stopped I've now realized how much it was helping. Things were markedly better while on it. It's been a while since my last real trip, and I'm thinking of doing the next one soon. Also would be happy getting back to another Ketamine infusion now that I have some more of this knowledge of drugs.

(NB: This article was originally begun around the third week of April and was put on hold for various reason until now)
I haven't given my Whovian view of the new series of Doctor Who yet, so I thought I would try and put down in words how I feel about the new era.
To preface what I am about to write in full disclosure I am a die hard Doctor Who fan who has very little bad to say about the show. I don't critique negatively very often. Something has to really nark me to get me to write something bad… which is probably why my attempts at starting a review website over and again. To further get the facts straight I kinda liked Love and Monsters from series 2 not so much the bits with Peter Kay (the man gets on my nerves sometimes and that was one time he didn't fit the role). Girl in the Fireplace is my all time favourite episode. I must have seen in 10 times in various places the most exotic being 33,000 feet over the Atlantic ocean flying back from the USA. So, on to my take of of Doctor Who Series 5.
It was with trepidation that I waved goodbye to David Tennant and good old Russell T Davies at the end of the year long set of 5 specials. The End of Time two parter was a great exit and I got a lump in my throat and a tear in my eye when Doc 10 said "…But I don't want to go". To see that moment of abject fear and distress manifest into a kinetic ball of lanky knee kissing foppish haired Matt Smith was a bit of a culture shock. We had seen the zany madcap timey wimey David Tennant, but this was taken to a whole new level.
The regeneration was pretty spectacular with everything crumbling and exploding around the Doctor. The TARDIS going down in flames as it were. Things were changing in front of us and it only took one word for the change to be sealed and clarified "GERONIMOOOOO". Our seatbelt were buckled tight and we were in for one hell of a ride… and then it all ended… 4 months to wait till we would get any kind of pay off for all that angst we had been through for the past two hours and then for our hearts pounding again, the "series" was over and now the real fan boy and fan girl speculation could really begin.
There had been some leaked photos before Christmas but I had tried to avoid them but in the Online Doctor Who community you can go to virtually any website and have whole episodes spoiled for you without even looking. I hate spoilers, they well they spoil things for you and who likes to have things spoiled. So my Winter Doctor Who browsing was limited to places I could pretty much chance it and not get spoiled (AKA not much choice).
Once the show finally began airing again I was well up for it. But as per usual something would get in the way. I think Doctor Who should be a family experience where everyone sits down and pays attention and experiences it all at the same time and then afterwards talk about it. Now this is all well and good when your whole family are at home at 6.15 to watch the show but when mean arsed bosses at the local supermarket where my loving wife works insist on her working till 7pm for 3 of the past 4 weeks it's pretty difficult to achieve that. So my anticipation was stretched to the finest gnats pubic hair you could possibly imagine. When she did get home at about 8pm we sat down and we took in the first episode the 11th Hour.
As far as introduction stories go it was great. It ticked all the right boxes. It introduced the new Doctor as a nutty professor type chap. His struggles to keep his old jalopy of a TARDIS working just long enough to stop her from blowing up all together and ripping a rift in the time space continuum. It gave us a new companion in Amy Pond who was planning on taking a trip in the TARDIS aged 8 but things don't quite go to plan. We meet up with an older more mature Amy later on in the episode who has now had 12 years of waiting and visiting Therapists to get her over her Spaceman fixation…(something I don't think she ever got over). We got a whole new speices of Villain "The Atraxi" who kind of reminded me of malevolent Vogons from Hitch Hikers Guide To The Galaxy, just doing their jobs and on to the next one.
I won't go into the stories because I don't want to spoil to much for you if you haven't already seen the shows in question. But at some point I will come back and give proper reviews for all of the shows in turn… maybe when the DVD box set comes out I'll pick out odd episodes and give them the once over.
(edit – added on the 12th May)
It's been a few weeks now and things are starting to look up. The first two parter with River Song back in the mix with the Weeping Angels was a slight turn to form and showed that Moffett still hasn't lost his touch. The latest episode The Vampires of Venice was a true classic for me. It had everything a classic Doctor who episode should have and it was the first time in the first half of Series 5 that I have not felt that something was lacking. The only thing (and it is a small thing) that bothered me was how confusing Saturdays episode looks. I was confused by the trailer so god knows what will happen throughout the show itself.
Doctor Who is back and it's good to have him back but we need just a little more consistency from the writing and we'll be just tickety boo.
Until Next Time…

Several local community organizations have teamed up to present a free community screening of "A Place at the Table" Sunday, Oct. 12. The film discusses the issue of hunger in America through the lens of three people struggling with food insecurity.
"A Place at the Table" shows how hunger poses serious economic, social and cultural implications for the nation, and that it could be solved once and for all, if the American public decides — as they have in the past — that making healthy food available and affordable is in the best interest of us all.
The Alameda Women Artists (AWA) will showcase the work of 23 of their artist members at an exhibition opening at Alameda Museum Wednesday, Oct. 8. Artworks include: acrylic, oil and watercolor paintings, collages, ceramics, clay monotypes, encaustics, graphite and pastel drawings, mixed media and photography.
The newest novel by Alameda author Pam Chun has been released after 10 years of research. Chun's fourth book, The Perfect Tea Thief, is available now in e-book format and in print.
The novel tells the story of Robert Fortune visiting China after the Opium Wars of 1843. Under the guise of a plant hunter for the British Horticultural Society, his secret mission is to steal China's secrets of tea production, a brazen act of industrial espionage that will devastate China's 5,000-year-old civilization.
Members of the California Watercolor Association (CWA) are exhibiting their art at the Alameda Free Library through Saturday, Sept. 27, on the second floor of the Main Library, 1550 Oak St.
The nonprofit CWA was founded in 1967 to promote water media painting. CWA fosters interest in the art of water media painting. The association sponsors educational programs, displays and exhibitions to increase the skills of its members and to further the understanding and appreciation of water media art.
We convey the Alameda experience, both past and present, through an informative, financially viable community newspaper, in print and online.

pda users (presumably worldwide) numbered nearly 11 million in 2002. scottsdale, arizona-based market research firm instat/mdr says that number will climb to 13.9 million this year. instat says this will happen for two reasons. for one thing, it spending will finally take a turn upward in the third or fourth quarter this year. on top of that, mobile device manufacturers will continue to release integrated units with higher-end price tags, and simpler units with lower-end price tags. devices like sony's nz series, which integrates a 2.1 megapixel camera, can bring in lots of dough for a few units sold, while low-dollar handhelds can rake in the low markup change. this time last year i read a report that pda sales would increase last year. i read another that said they would remain stable, and another that said pda sales would decrease. who ever really knows? anyway, if you're into analysts' predictions, instat/mdr also predicts pda sales will increase 18.3% between now and 2007. read all about it at ee times.

Girl Scout Programs
Girl Scout HQ
Scientific Achievement Badge and the second level Science Expert Pin for all levels.
The Lancaster Science Factory has partnered with the Girl Scouts to offer a program which generates interest in the sciences and helps young girls understand their own abilities and potential. The Program offers:
- A Scientific Achievement Badge
- A second level Science Expert Pin
- Brownie Home Scientist and Inventors Badges
- Complimentary Group Admission
- Complimentary Individual Admission
All group scout admissions require advance registration by a Scout Leader. Click here to download the Girl Scout Program Guide and Reservation Form .
Click here to register your scout(s) for an upcoming Brownie Home Scientist or Inventor Badge Workshop.
Science Expert Pin
Lancaster Science Factory offers "Science Expert" pin, a turnkey program for Daisies, Brownies, Juniors, and Cadettes.
If your troop has already completed the Scientific Achievement Badge, then they can reach the next level and become a "Science Expert!"
Like the badge program, as the Scout completes each activity, the leader "signs-off" on the pin activity in the book. Upon completion of the requirements, the Scout has earned their Science Expert pin and it's presented at the Science Factory or at a special ceremony.
There is a $3 Fee for the purchase of the pin.
Science Achievement Badge
Scientific Achievement Badge. (Cadette pictured right)
This is a turnkey activity where patrols of Daisies, Brownies, Juniors or Cadettes, can earn a specialty Science Achievement Badge developed by the Science Factory. Each Scout receives a Science Badge workbook which includes various activities depending on the level of the Scout. As the child completes each activity, the Scout leader "signs-off" the activity in the book and they earn their Science Badge when all the requirements are completed. The Badge is presented at the Science Factory or at a special ceremony.
There is a $3 Fee for the purchase of the badge.
Brownie Home Scientist and Inventor Badges and Instructional Programs
A staff member will lead a group of Brownie scouts in activities so that they can fully complete the requirements to earn the Home Scientist and Inventor badges on pre-scheduled dates.
Troops must pre-register and the program is limited to 20 girls per session. The cost is $7 per scout which includes instruction and materials.
It will take a group of 20 scouts one and a half to two hours to complete the activities in our classroom space. For Home Scientist, the scouts will experiment with emulsions, static electricity, density, a chemical reaction, and homemade 'silly putty'.
For the Inventor Badge, the scouts will brainstorm (about multiple uses, creative problem solving, and needs) before designing and constructing a model of an invention that satisfies a need they have identified.
Click here to register your scout(s) for an upcoming workshop!
Complimentary Group Admission
Complimentary group admission to Girl Scout Troops and patrols visiting the Science Factory as a pre-registered group, not as part of a badge program but as general admission to the Science Factory, enabling the girls to explore all the exhibits in the Mueller Hall of Science. Activity guides will be provided to Scout leaders. Scout leaders are admitted at no charge. Siblings, parents, and troop guests are admitted under our current group rate.
Complimentary Individual Admission
Complimentary admission to individual Girl Scouts, regardless of rank, when they wear their vest or with proof of membership in the Scouts. This will enable the girls to explore the Science Factory with their families. Family members receive our group rate when admitted with a scout.
Stay Overnight!
Scout groups with at least 30 guests can choose to extend their visit to the Science Factory overnight. Please visit the Overnight page for details and cost of overnight programming!

Look at these photos and you can pick whatever details you want for obtaining a nice-looking and elegant bedroom colored in red and black. Of course it is not necessary for you to exaggerate and paint even the walls in red or black, but you should try to purchase the right furniture, carpet, paintings and other decorative details.
This way a balance will be created. As for the floor, you could use a soft rug or carpet to cover most of it. Since black is a very strong and dramatic color as well as a cold and dark one, you should use elements that add warmth to the décor in order to balance everything evenly and to end up with a cozy and inviting bedroom.

Originally posted on https://www.937theeagle.com/story/40159527/5-surprising-airline-travel-tips-to-make-your-next-flight-better
Flying can be stressful. Whether it's for business or pleasure, long layovers, technical flight failures, and long security lines can all give you a severe case of mental paralysis.
If you take note of these airline travel tips, you'll step off the plane and be ready to book your next flight without a moment's hesitation.
Unless you're going on a month long trip, pack one bag and pack it right. Consider what are the crucial things you need, and the factors that will determine whether you'll find yourself paying over $25 because of luggage that doesn't follow TSA weight limits.
Strickly pack by the outfit, not per individual item. Roll up those shirts, don't fold them. Pack mini bottles of shampoo, and make sure to bring a travel-only toiletry bag in case you need to take something out.
Most airlines allow you to complete the check-in process online or through your mobile phone. It is typically allowed beginning 24 hours before the flight time.
If you check in to your flight ahead of time, there's a good chance you can choose your seat assignment. If you wait to check-in at the airport, chances are you'll get stuck with the less-desirable seats on the plane.
An early check-in not only guarantees you'll score you a better arrangement, but it can also earn you bonus miles.
Aircraft noise is not enjoyable, especially if you're trying to take a nap during the flight. Investing in a pair of noise-canceling headphones, if you don't own a pair already can make an incredible difference.
Although they were created for airplane pilots to improve their comfort on long flights, noise-canceling headphones are a favorite consumer good. Some headphones vary by price, with some starting as low as $39.99.
Don't risk dropping your laptop as you try to take it out of the case for inspection. Keep it in an accessible location so it takes you no time to pack it again. Remember that you don't have to pack all the electronics in the same bag either. You can leave your iPad, Kindle, and cell phone on your carry-on.
The TSA does not reimburse you for damaged items in checked baggage. Remember to keep your electronics in your carry-on at all times. Make sure to learn more about airline policies and laws so you don't risk expensive liability.
Dramamine is an over-the-counter drug that soothes motion sickness. It may make you very drowsy, so if you're on a long flight taking it can help you catch up on your sleep.
And yes, sleeping on a plane is a true challenge and many travelers turn to medications to help them sleep away in flights. Ambien, for example, has a sleeping inducing power that doesn't leave you feeling groggy when you wake up. So make a list of the medicine you'll need before heading to the airport.
Reaching your destination fully rested and relaxed is an art in itself.
Considering that you're stuck inside a metal can for half of your day keep reminding yourself this will pass. And, if you swear by these airline travel tips you'll be a happier traveler. Long-haul flights and all.

India holiday, small group
Carbon reduction
Your holiday will help support local people and conservation. We must also reduce CO2. Learn about the CO2 emissions of this holiday and how to reduce them.
Providing our travellers with real life experiences without compromising the lives of local people is the ethos that we live by. Our style of travel is responsible, ensuring we benefit local people, the environment and wildlife and leave as little impact as possible. These values are more than just words on a page; they are ingrained in our culture and the daily operations of every office and every trip. In addition, we expect our staff and travellers to demonstrate the principles of responsible travel - respecting people, cultures and local environments, in the distribution of wealth, in good will and cross-cultural sharing and in contributing to sustainable development.
We endeavour to support the local economy and put imperative finance back into a community. We do this by staying in small, locally run accommodation; our stay in the medieval town of Chanderi is an example of this as we stay at a local guesthouse. We always employ local leaders as this enables locals to have a firm, permanent job and we will feel they of course know their country better than anyone else. Whilst we are in Chanderi, our local leader will invite travellers back to his familys home to share a meal with them, often the highlight of the trip as travellers gain a real insight into Indias tradition and culture and integrate with the locals. Our small group sizes, maximum 12 on this tour, enable us to travel in this style, as we also visit a Hindu family for a home-cooked lunch, and give our travellers those unique experiences and a sense of belonging.
Travellers are able to experience genuine insights into the local culture in India as we ensure we include as much local transport into our itineraries. No trip to India would be complete without experiencing the overnight sleeper trains, where travellers and locals travel alike as it is an exciting cultural eye opener aboard the fastest and convenient way to travel. Not only are travellers fascinated by this style of travel, but locals often love to meet with travellers and get to know their culture a little better.
Wildlife and the environment are parts of our world that are precious and must be respected at all times. On this tour, we include a visit to the Bandhavgarh National Park that is home to an abundance of magnificent wildlife and the elusive tiger, and chances of spotting one of these magical creatures is high. The entrance fees to the National Park are included in the price of the tour which contributes to the upkeep and conservation of the Park, enabling tigers to live in a protected environment and travellers to enjoy it for years to come.
The dress code in Asia is conservative, in particular when visiting temples, mosques and palaces. On this tour we visit Delhis oldest mosque, Jain temples and the magical Taj Mahal and care must be taken to respect Indian culture. We suggest travellers invest in some lightweight, loose clothing that covers shoulders and knees when visiting India. Information can be accessed on our website prior to travel to help ensure travellers are able to follow appropriate dress codes and behaviours at these locations and your group leader will be on hand to advise throughout.
Our responsibilities dont just stop when our tours end. We run and support a variety of projects globally, from healthcare, education, human rights, child welfare, sustainable development and environmental and wildlife protection. Our in house foundation, Our company foundation supports three projects in India, including the Asha Ka Jharna, which provides services to disabled children and adults, Deepalaya that focuses on building a better future for Indias street children and GOONJ, which channels vital resources such as clothes and household goods, into rural India.

I've heard that Google interprets longer domain registrations as a
signal of quality. Is it true that Google will treat my site differently if I
register or renew my domain for 10 years versus just two years?
Answer: The short answer is: It will never hurt your rankings and it might,
theoretically from time to time, help your rankings ever-so-slightly—maybe,
but probably not. Here's the deal.
A Google patent made public in 2005 referred to several ways by which
Google may distinguish between illegitimate and legitimate domains. One
aspect is the length of time a domain is registered for. According to the
patent, legitimate domains are more likely to be paid for several years in
advance, while doorway and spam-heavy domains are rarely registered for
more than a year in advance, since the owner knows they'll likely be
penalized anyway.
Based on the patent information, several domain registrars began prompting
their customers to lock-in new registrations for long periods, claiming that
doing so would help their search engine rankings.
However, since that patent was released our observations indicate that
extended domain registrations don't have much, if any, impact on
rankings. It certainly doesn't hurt, but you should not expect it to give you
any major boost in the rankings.
Even so, it is interesting to note that Google's patent application does state
that domain registration could be a potential ranking factor. But just
because something is in a patent doesn't mean that it's actually being done.
All it means is that the patent holder wants to reserve the right to possibly do
it someday.
Also relevant is the fact that Google, as a domain registrar, only has access
to the database of public (but not private) whois records. So, in theory, if you
keep your domain registration private (as many do for privacy and personal
security reasons)
Google has no easy way of knowing how long your domain is registered for.
Finally, it's worth noting that domains in the UK are prevented from being
registered for periods longer then two years at a time, making the point moot
for British sites.
So the bottom line is that it may be good business practice to register your
domains for longer, but you really shouldn't count on getting a ranking boost.

How registering your domain name for longer periods might help your search rankings.

Forky: a life on film
After decades of service, the three-pronged plasticware gets a shot at stardom
Scott Marks 12:30 p.m., July 26
Upon moving into the title abode, Damon Wayans purchases a video camera and promises girlfriend Essence Atkins that he's going to "film everything: Christmas, New Year's, vagina." One of the first images Wayans's camcorder captures is the imprint of Atkins' rear tire just moments after it ran over his pooch's head. A most imaginative sight gag soon cleans the air. Wayans reimagines Paranormal Activity godhead Orin Peli's shape-shifting, sheet-fluffing specter as his galpal's blanket-ballooning nocturnal flutter-blasts. The cast of hedonistic house guests includes a gay psychic, a determined couple of swingers, a "Mandingo party" that puts Tarantino's to shame, and a surprisingly flat Cedric the Entertainer in the role made famous by Max Von Sydow. Worth seeing for Essence Atkins, who alternates between comic underplaying and demonic flamboyance with the greatest of ease. The Wayans family withdrew from the Scary Movie franchise after the second installment. With SM5 just around the corner, series co-creator Wayans decided to beat the Weinsteins to the draw with a Paranormal parody of his own. His scheme paid off. SM5, set to open last concurrently, pushed back its release date from January to April. Certainly not for everyone, but I must confess to chuckling at a few of the film's baser moments. Michael Tiddes directs. 2013.

'Another Rousing Chorus You Idiots!!!' by The Drones.
Disclaimer: The Drones are my all time favourite band and I don't know that I can write about them without gushing pathetically. To try and focus myself, I'm going to concentrate on just one song for this post (their songs are long and dense, so one is enough for the purposes for post accompaniment anyway). Given this admirable restraint, I reserve the right to post about them again.
My good, bad and ugly of world politics this weeks concerns leaders in trouble: two are recently unemployed and one is facing the fact of his political mortality for the first time (even if the inevitable death is still a while away). 'Another Rousing Chorus You Idiots!!!' has the desperate melancholy of a powerful man losing his grip. The worldiness and world-weariness of the lyric brings to mind Roy Batty (Rutger Hauer's character in Blade Runner) and the anguish of memories' extinction he represents. Some illustrative lyrics below, and also see THE GOOD.
I have seen mountains stop short of the sky
I've seen continents reach the oceans and shy
I have had beauties and charred fire breathers
I have drunk whiskey and your methylated spirits
I have seen harder men shrivel and flake
A common theme in Drones' songs is how hard it is to make rent. In this song financial indiscretions are more dire and dramatic: "I have spent thousands, most of it loaned". In these economically depressed times this brings to mind structural rather than individual difficulties: ie. the sub-prime crisis and, by extension, Europe's current economic travails. See THE BAD below.
I particularly like the line "We were shat from a wormhole, to revere your face" and the refrain, "you were not easy to break". Without wanting to over-analyse, to me, the subject in this song is unstable. Sometimes the subject and object seem to coincide, sometimes they don't. The idea fits well with the final line of the chorus "admit you were only two inches away from zero control, again". See THE UGLY below.
The title of the song is, as anything that seems so directly aimed at its audience, provocative. Who is he calling idiot??? And what chorus is he even talking about? Is he being ironic and referencing that anemic wailing? (Incidentally, the counterpoint that wailing makes with the hard-man bravado of the verses is another instance of the instability of the song's subject). Or is this straight-forward self-deprecation; a reference to the easy emotiveness of exaggerated dynamics The Drones use a lot, particularly on this album?
Taking a political slant, the song's title could be read as a reference to the group-think that props up music idols and fascists alike. At a Soundgarden concert I attended in Melbourne in 1997 Chris Cornell yelled something like "you're all fucking idiots", provoking cheers of adulation. While I was bemused, Cornell was amused: he clearly knew he would get such a reaction. He's now mellowed, but The Drones' Gareth Liddiard has been known to utter similarly misanthropic asides on stage. I could imagine our mindless devotion could be scary when seen from the other side. Or mildly embarrassing, anyway.
For the first time ever Vladimir Putin is looking slightly less than inviolable. He is a long way from staring down any kind of barrel, but for a man who officially received 72 per cent of the vote last time he ran for president in 2004, developments since mass street protests were first seen after last December's parliamentary elections are surely cause for reflection.
There's always been opposition in Putin's Russia (bets are any Russian journalist who died in mysterious circumstances over the last decade was a voice for such forces). This sort of mass mobilisation is however new. The most recent protest was reportedly attended by around 100,000 frozen Muscovites.
Despite these refreshing digs at Putin's entitlement to rule Russia indefinitely, his victory in the March 4 presidential election is all but assured due to a lack of a credible opposition figure. At best, he may be forced to contest a run-off election (required should he receive less than 50 per cent of the vote). A very optimistic view is that all bets would be off should a run off indeed be necessary. In that scenario, given a plausible shot at the top job, presumed second placed candidate, billionaire businessman Mikhail Prokhorov – regardless of whether or not he is a Kremlin puppet (no one is entirely sure) – would take off the gloves, throw caution to the wind and have a real tilt.
Emil Boc resigned as Prime Minister of Romania this week. He is being depicted as the latest casulty of Europe's economic woes. Romania is a member of the European Union, but not the Eurozone (it does not use the euro currency).
Boc increased taxes and cut government wages in line with requirements accompanying an IMF bailout package agreed in 2009 after the country fell into a deep recession. These moves appear to have set Romania on a positive fiscal track but, as is pretty much always the case with austerity measures, they are deeply unpopular. Along with now-shelved health sector reforms, they led to mass demonstrations in Bucharest and other cities calling for Boc's resignation.
Analysts say Romanians are in a deep malaise about all politicians, not just Boc or the current government. President Traian Basescu is at least as unpopular as Boc. The role of President in Romania is substantive, sharing executive functions with the government. The country's chief spy Mihai Razvan Ungureanu took over the Prime Ministership yesterday. Elections are due later this year.
Mohamed Nasheed stepped down from his post as President of the Maldives on Tuesday. In a televised resignation address, Nasheed stated he was removing himself in response to sustained protests. He said to remain in power he would have to use force; something he did not wish to do. Nasheed has since said he did not go willingly but was actually forced at gunpoint to relinquish his democratically elected position. He claims a military-backed coup is what actually occurred. An army spokesman denies a coup took place.
The current crisis has its origins in Nasheed's call for the country's chief justice to be arrested for favouring previous ruler and opposition leader Maumoon Abdul Gayoom. Gayoom is strongly allied with Islamist groups who oppose Nasheed's liberalism. No matter the reason though, the military detention of a judicial figure is never a good look and the justice was released pretty quickly.
Nasheed came to power in 2008 following the Maldive's first democratic elections. His ascension marked the end of Gayoom's thirty-year reign. Nasheed, then a pro-democracy activist, was repeatedly imprisoned during Gayoom's rule.
Fellow former activist and Vice-President Mohammed Waheed Hassan has stepped into the Presidential role and maintains Nasheed's resignation was voluntary. An arrest warrant for Nasheed was issued yesterday. It is not clear what charge he faces – it has been speculated it may be alcohol consumption – and he is yet to be arrested. One of the key groups involved in the protests that led to Nasheed's ouster was the police.

IT consulting firm Networld Solutions has announced a contract extension with the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District (SMMUSD). Under the new one-year agreement, Networld will provide the district continued IT planning and project management services that align with SMMUSD's Education Technology Plan.
Networld first contracted with SMMUSD in 2007 to help the district assess its technology infrastructure and determine its ability to support technology improvements over a five-year period. The company developed strategic and tactical plans based on district goals and helped spearhead the bidding process for wide- and local-area network technology and services. According to the district, a contract for the WAN/LAN services was recently awarded to AT&T.
"Networld Solutions came in and quickly evaluated our technology needs and our ability to support IT growth through our Education Technology Plan, and their help with important initiatives such as the WAN/LAN bid has been extremely valuable," said Virginia Hyatt, director of procurement, contracts and construction for Santa Monica-Malibu USD, in a prepared statement. "We are pleased to renew the contract as we move forward with technology innovations that set the stage for continued success in our classrooms."
Plans for the contract extension include supporting district efforts to enhance campus- and district-wide networks, as well as adding wireless networking and VoIP systems. According to the company, the new initiatives will drive cost savings and enhanced communications across the network.

In Arizona, the penalties for a DUI conviction depend primarily on blood alcohol concentration or BAC. If your BAC is above .08%, you will be charged with a DUI. Blood alcohol concentration above .15%, will lead to Extreme DUI charges or worse. In some cases, it's possible to be charged with a DUI even with a BAC of below .08%.
If it's your first offense, don't expect the courts and prosecutors to "go easy" on you. Arizona is aggressively trying to cut down on drunk driving and mandatory sentencing guidelines mean you will receive at least some jail time and severe financial penalties. A DUI Second Offense increases the penalties the court will apply.

Prince William and Kate, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, are expecting their third child and it has been announced.
The Duchess, 35, is once again suffering severe morning sickness, like with her previous two pregnancies, and has been forced to cancel a royal engagement for medical treatment at home.
"Their royal highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to announce that the Duchess of Cambridge is expecting their third child," the palace said in its statement, adding, "The Queen and members of both families are delighted with the news."
The statement continued,
"As with her previous two pregnancies, the duchess is suffering from hyperemesis gravidarum. Her royal highness will no longer carry out her planned engagement at the Hornsey Road children's centre in London today. The duchess is being cared for at Kensington Palace."
This heartwarming news comes two years after the Duke and Duchess welcomed their second child, a baby girl, Princess Charlotte, in May 2015. Their first child, 4-year-old Prince George, is set to start school at the Thomas's Battersea, south London.
Guardian UK adds that this baby will be the fifth in line to the throne, shoving the duke's brother, Prince Harry, to the sixth place. And if the baby is a boy, he will come fourth, pushing his sister Charlotte behind, because males are more privileged than the females.
However, the world waits for this new baby, just like it did in the time of its siblings. Also, it is unclear when this child will be born, as news of its due date has yet to be made public.

Morning Monday Funny
I have decided that Monday's need to start with some humor. Gods known we need it. So today to get your smile going, I bring you a photo essay from "Pasadena, 91105 and Beyond" titled "Balloon Chicken Saves The Day".
I've never been partial to balloon animals. Even as a child, I never saw the attraction. They just lose air, get all wrinkly and deflate. Just laying there all sad, damp and flaccid. Just like fallen leaves in the early morning or fruit that fell off the tree after a wind storm. I even had a friend who was terrified of balloons because she just hated the shock if one popped next to her.
At least balloon chicken is entertaining. With that coxcomb, at least we know he is a boy chicken. I wonder if he wakes you up in the morning? I do think he is kinda hot. Well, he's full of hot air after all!
Go forth, drink caffeine and start your day everyone!
Gold Class Cinema – The Best Thing Since Fois Gras
Hey Everyone! Pasadena has something special. Not that Pasadena wasn't special before but this is the Super Bowl of special! This is the best movie theatre experience EVER! Imax has nothing on this newest cinema revelation. This red carpet event (the only venue in CA BTW) is something you should run to at the first opportunity but make sure to save your pennies first.
What is it? Well many years ago in the bay area there was a 2nd run movie house called Picture, Pub and Pizza. They ripped out all the seats, put in some old couches and armchairs. You could order pizza, beer and munchies (like wings) delivered to your table. All the movies (with the exception of the baby brigade on Monday nights) were 21 and over. It was a little run down BUT it was $5 a seat, you could drink beer, have pizza, sit on a couch and not have to worry about kids. It was wonderful but then they closed.
I thought my life was over. However, this concept is back but bigger, better and boozier than before. I spent the weekend in Pasadena and Catwoman told me of this new theatre, the Gold Class Cinema. I keep wanting to call it the Gold Coast – same thing in my mind. It is the finest in every way.
This theatre experience is in Old Towne and is pretty amazing. Each of the 8 theatres seat only 40 people so you don't have to worry about crowding although for popular movies you need to reserve your seats and buy your tickets on-line as they sell out fast. Let me take you through this experience:
Yes, that is a red carpet. You walk into the lobby where young, chic people in black take your membership card and pre-paid tickets then have one of them escort you to the main lobby one floor down. The lobby, where you will wait for your show to start looks like a chic club.
Here you can relax on low boxy chairs, have a cocktail and order the food you want to have during the movie. Here is a copy of the menu:
You have noticed that this is not Picture, Pub and Pizza. This is fairly high priced food with high priced tickets to match BUT with a high end experience that is TOTALLY worth it! It is the perfect date night AND because of the price, you get a level of clientele who are here for the movie and NOT to text and talk on their phone like a douche or let their kids scream and run around.
We ordered "Batcave" martinis (Hendricks gin) as our starters and then ordered the Charcuterie Platter, the Duck Tacos and the Assorted Cookies & Brownie Platter for dessert. Once our theatre was opened, we were escorted to our seats. They look like large first class airline recliner chairs with a storage area in one arm and a small table between with a call button to order more food or (more importantly, more booze). You can see the green call button next to our martinis.
Alice in Wonderland 3D was sold out so we saw Avatar in 3D. It was wonderful. We were given pillows and blankets. Let that sink in. Pillow, blanket, martini, duck tacos (more like burritos) and a cushy recliner! RECLINER! With your own personal Jeeves only a button push away. Ummmm, that is a whole PILE of awesome!
To me the only thing that would make this better would be to have Gordon Ramsey bring me the martini and bickies without his shirt on. Good times! I love Pasadena!
