Over the weekend of May 3 and 4, China sent an oil rig into disputed waters of the South China Sea to begin oil exploration. The rig is near the Paracel Islands, inside the 200-mile exclusive economic zone of Vietnam, which angrily protested the decision. The Vietnamese government insists that the waters, as well as the oil and gas reserves held beneath, belong to Vietnam.
Where boundaries are drawn in the South China Sea has long been a source of regional tension, but China has escalated the conflict by moving to drill the first well inside disputed territory. China said the oil rig would be operating from now until August 15.
For its part, Vietnam is demanding that China cease drilling operations. "All foreign activities in Vietnam's seas without Vietnam's permission are illegal and invalid," Vietnam'sForeign Ministry said in a statement. "Vietnam resolutely protests them."
The move may also be a response to U.S. President Barack Obama's recent trip to Southeast Asia, which included a dealwith the Philippines to allow for a greater American troop presence in the region. The U.S. and the Philippines kicked off a two-week long military exercise on May 5.
The U.S. Energy Information Administration estimates that the South China Sea holds 11 billion barrels of oil and 190 trillion cubic feet of natural gas, most of which is located in disputed territory. China believes the oil and gas reserves could be much larger.

Thinking that we actually flipped over every inch of KL attractions, I was worried that this year we might not have places to go anymore. But turns out, we still missed out some places...
Who would have thought a Museum in a Central Bank would be this much fun?
Sasana Kijang is actually the Bank Negara's Building at Jalan Dato Onn. It houses a museum which is FREE for everyone! Why it's awesome? Coz it's not your usual cultural museum with all the traditional costumes, artifacts, mannequins, antiques bla bla bla...
It's a place to learn everything about how the world works to get what they want. You get to learn pretty much how our current world functions to earn income and of course spend them. I think it's cool, coz I think not many people know exactly how money moves around and what does banks do and who are the market players....
Well I'm an economics student afterall, this place is like Candyland for me heh...
Pretty don't you think???
Was instantly mesmerized by the beautiful glass building. It's away from the busy streets, somewhere in the middle of a hill.
At the lobby of the museum. The must-see 4 storey spiraling stairs awaits.
sorry if my photo don't do justice to the stairs, it does look cool.
Looks like something from Inception haha...
Top view.
I suggest going up the building by lifts and walk back down to the lobby using the stairs hehe
The automatic door slides open and we were greeted by this tunnel of jam-packed cash.
The door closes and you have no way out haha...
Trust me I kinda freaked out at first lol, probably because of the amount of money surrounding, as if it can drown you haha...
Trust me I kinda freaked out at first lol, probably because of the amount of money surrounding, as if it can drown you haha...
Inside the children's museum, there's lots of interactive displays that pretty much educates children on what bank does, what money does, value of different items, and encourages children to save money.
This was fun haha, Barcode scanning game that counts your scores according to how much things you "bought".
Mock bank. They even have a mock deposit slip.
Authentication of Malaysian bank notes. This was fun too.
There's a lot more! You can even make your own bank note with your own signature here! Will update here once I get the photos from Miu.
Moving up, there's Economics gallery, Bank Negara Malaysia gallery, Islamic Finance gallery and Numismatic gallery. And again, lots of interactive displays to let you learn more about the knowledge behind economics and finance. You can try printing your own antique cheque like how they did it in the past. Play a quiz about Islamic Finance and visit a replica of the Central Bank Governor's office.
It's like my International Monetary Economics module all over again.
You can unlock the Central Bank vault. Yes there's a keypad and you have to find the password.
Try being a Forex trader!
I like this game heh, they actually have news and you need to decide whether to sell/buy currency according to the news.
Macroeconomics lesson -- Interactive version
A barter system game to play with your friend. You can choose your own character, like Chinese traders, Arab businessman etc etc
This humongous coin was used as a currency
Yeap the numismatic gallery pretty much shows you every single coin that ever existed in the past.
and of course bank notes from the past as well...
and present
There were also art galleries in the museum. Though I have no sense of art, but I really like the art galleries coz they are just so spacious and quiet. It really does give you time to sit back, relax and think. Didn't take much photos though. One of the galleries actually prohibits photography.
This is called a Shout and Cry room
from the description, the artist tries to express the depth of sorrow by creating a space instead of just your normal 2-d art.
Well to be honest, it looked kinda creepy at first haha...
I think I can just come back again and chill at the galleries for one whole afternoon.
Okay here comes the best part, they have a decent cafe!
and it's actually cheap and they serve a variety of food! From pastas, local favorites, cakes and pastries...
Pasta was RM9 if i'm not wrong, Hot Mocha was only RM3.
I'm serious when I say I'll just come back and learn again and have a good lunch here. Awesome day spent.
Thanks for doing this with me again my dear friend!!
Let's hope we can explore some where further soon!
Please go to their website to find out more if you're interested to visit!!
Walked across the road, and there's Tunku Abdul Rahman memorial.
I guess nobody visits the place, the whole memorial just looks very....dull and lifeless...
Probably because there wasn't much interesting displays, it's all just WORDS.
But the building was pretty actually. Apparently it really was the residence of our first Prime Minister.

Hong Kong bought turning him over the knee now a doubling of ... its interesting kind of that that what's really at play here I wanna read you something that that that really struck me from ... this was from Reuters columnist Jack Shafer yes he said ... though the willingness quote the willingness of the government to punish weaker is ... is inversely proportional to the Lakers rank and status ... you play this game you're you're Washington reporter there's a lot of selective disclosure of classified information from very important people sometimes ... and yet ... address to and doesn't Ryan Ideas noting wasting really twenty twenty make of that ... yes I think that's a pretty important point in that and and what what people are basically honest known disorder the ultimate example about also Manning case ... that people hold very low down on the food chain let's say ... aam get the full weight of the law dropped on them but there is a belief and in some truth to that we think ... that people very high up in the government I'd have have a lot more discretion when it comes to making things is the problem frankly people ... well I mean that was I which is to say people have the government and were more senior officials probably should have no reception ... when it comes to that I had only you can run organization properly ... if ... you know you're you're ... delivery man gets to decide like major corporate ... moves ... but I do think there is of the problem in the system whereas people who feel at least a narrow minded their whistleblowers ... don't have ... a real Avenue in the intelligence community ... to ... just to call out to me I think is wrong ... and ... and I think that is a genuine problem ok ... another bit of news that happens ... late yesterday the ACLU filed suit ... I danced at least the ... phone data collection program what's absurd right ... this is your ear because for once ... for a very rare instance they still use actually representing itself ACLU is itself a Verizon customer and they are suing over this data collection from this phone collection program ... and so their argument is ... you know you know how the government doesn't have the right to take ... our phone records without ... without telling us and and two ... the phone company should be during a stopover ... whenever whenever they whenever their ... I'm it's it's ... what we've expected to see that we've always expected that once these are the ones that document became public ... that there would be civil liberties challenges to it ... again this has lined up by a court so that that in some ways that's a tough row to climb but ... I think I think they have an import guard when I think it's it's an army that skinny get her ... ok ... ok Devlin Barrett thank you so much for joining us this morning ... thank you ... and when we come back markets look up after a couple down days this next ... she ... us that U S stock futures rise after ... an hour to get interrupted AEST today down days play Lesova for MarketWatch joins us now Polya ok what why is the market can be up to ... well I think that is always a rebound after sharp losses or that that is the pattern was seen in the Suen case where we've ... seen that you know couple of down days ... and over the baby on ... the eighteenth overall in all some time some investors and talking about a minor correction taking place to get into my can ... and will see that the salad ... aam ... overnight in Japan the Japanese stock market ended with only mine and also sewing think ... that had opposed effect on sentiment and also that the lawyer has rebounded against Japanese yen Tuesday on so that's also helping ... and its deal with what seemed them on my kid that they ... don't say it is on your face in the equity markets ... look at that ten year yield ... the assets rising that's that's a little uncomfortably it is and there's also an auction of I ten year notes today twenty one PM ET on ...

I'm still Doherty confined to the distance as according ... to him a ... little bit of an above two percent ... took a hit with its north of all let's let's move to three stocks you're free you're watching first off is ... a deal in in the entire world yes well I think it happened in the end I am a record of all of my ears announced this morning to people by an Ohio based company called Apple where ... I've tried and average coal for around two point five billion dollars ... in height and the combined company will be ... at the World sevens big if a tire maker ... out with revenue of nearly seven billion dollars in shares ... of paprika and cayenne the warehouse title it down to the lean years the couple bought twenty percent he might get Pfizer's the tech stock you I yes folks like to announce that it has obtained a two point two billion dollars at the land ... away to get by and some farm awful but the thinking things in an infringement ... this comes after new opinion that so ...

I think if ... you want a clear this up ... these ... people see protesting in the square the thing Cairo but that's unfair right ... how come ... yes ... I think that the other really big differences between what we saw in Cairo in South Korea for two years ago ... and what we're seeing in Istanbul in toxins were today ... first of all just the skill of it ... that that protests in Cairo swelled to ... hundreds of thousands and eventually even millions of Egyptians ... crabbing squares ... and streets ... not just in Cairo but all over the country ... and hell what ... was happening ... well this one ... I think by the largest estimates might've been about that is at its height ... maybe ... in the tens of thousands load tends ... to twenty maybe thirty thousand people and ... by now after about two weeks of protests were talking and ... really just about a couple of thousand ... of them today only a few hundred are left and in another point to make your probably is that ... the democratic institutions in Turkey are much much stronger than the air in Egypt I do I wanna ask you ... how I had right prime minister who won ... decisively crush these protests at this point ... you know you can ever be a hundred percent sure but I would say probably yes and ... the the danger that I see looking forward a few days is if Prime Minister on follows through on his ... promise threat depending on which the hedge you brought him ... to bring his supporters out into the streets ... I which he said he would do this weekend ... then we may see some pretty nasty confrontations between pro and anti aired on protesters scattered around the country ... but ... I think ... that ... although personally I'm sympathetic to the protesters I think ... that ... they have been divided by the government's tactics that aired on is supposed to meet with some of them today but not others ... and Dave also failed to create ... debt so far ... and the popular support that everyone does enjoy among ... his supporters which I think are probably about half of the Turkish population ... and the yuan is successfully ... catering to that base ... do you think some people say I wonder ... whether ... a year to one's role is a sign that all of this is a sign that Turkey could lose ... some of the secular traditions that ... really if it adopted ... Post Ataturk sentry go ... yet ... well that that's already happening but I mean that's one another is what Islamic super state ... know I I think that there are limits to how far this process of Islamization is likely to go and Turkey ... and in fact that the fact that these protests are taking place is one of the limits that they're gone or any Turkish government will face ... in trying to use the Mayans this country ... more than has happened ... nevertheless few years ... because they're about half of the Turkish population is pretty staunchly secular ... and traveling in Turkey all around the country myself a few weeks ago I a ... this re discovered ... the existence of a very strong current ... of resentment ... against ... further Islamization of Turkish society and public life ... so I think the Turks themselves are to resist this trend ... okay ...

Maybe you have been told that you have a "bad attitude" at some point in your life. But what does this expression mean? It could mean anything including that the other person simply disagrees with your point of view. Yet there are instances when our attitude is genuinely harmful to our mental health. In this post I am going to discuss three types of bad attitude which can keep you fully entrenched in a depressive episode. Remember that awareness is the key to change. Sometimes it hurts when others tell us something not so good about ourselves. We have to ask, "Is there any truth to what is being said?" and go from there. Consider the source. If it is a trusted friend, loved one or therapist who tells us that the way we are thinking may be contributing to our depression, it may be time to listen.
Bad Attitude #1: A sense of entitlement
Having a sense of entitlement is all about "should"s and expectations. You feel entitled to experience certain things because you have the attitude that life should go as you wish and expect. It is "the world owes me" kind of mentality which exemplifies the attitude of entitlement. For example, a depression sufferer with a sense of entitlement may expect friends and loved ones to react in a certain way to his or her symptoms of depression. When that reaction doesn't come then a global statement is made of "nobody cares." Then when someone does reach out to this person the reaction may be hostile because they felt that their unsaid expectations were not met in the first place.
The thought process which accompanies a sense of entitlement may go something like this: "They (loved ones, friends, and even acquaintances) don't react to my depression as they should. So they don't care. As a matter of fact, nobody cares."
The anger over people not living up to expectations leads the person with a sense of entitlement to act out in other ways. This attitude is publicly visible on support sites such as this when someone will declare support unworthy before it is even given. The person sets up a no-win scenario where anyone who attempts to provide help is hit with impossible expectations nobody can fulfill.
Immediately upon meeting the person with a sense of entitlement, you are placed in the position of proving your worth. Responsibility is shifted to everyone else, to meet this persons needs.
The need to be "right" can appear stronger than an actual need for help for the person who suffers from a sense of entitlement. There can be a definite theme of trying to prove other's attempts to help as unworthy so that their perception of an uncaring world can be validated. There may then be subsequent attempts to recruit other depression sufferers into their skewed view of the world.
Attitude Makeover:
Nobody can read your mind. Sometimes you have to ask for what you want and need. And even then people may not always be able to give you what you want. But this does not mean that the people in your life do not care.
The world, including your family, friends, co-workers, neighbors and acquaintances do not owe you anything because you are depressed. The world doesn't exist to make you happy.
You are responsible for you. You are responsible for your own happiness.
Bad Attitude #2: Playing the victim
I am somewhat cautious of using the term "playing the victim" because many depression sufferers have been true victims in their life. There are many of us, for example, who may have suffered from some sort of abuse as a child or even as an adult. Yet there are situations where we do have some sort of control and choices yet we still maintain our victim status because it may be what we know.
For some people, it can feel more comfortable to be a passive victim in life than someone who does have the power to change their life circumstances. Playing the victim is similar to having a sense of entitlement in that it is another way to avoid responsibility. If we perceive life as things just always happen to us then we don't have to take risks or make choices. We are automatically absolved from guilt and blame. Someone or something is always responsible but not us.
The person who plays the victim thinks, "The world is unfair. I am powerless and cannot make any changes in my life. Why do these bad things keep happening to me?"
Happiness and well being are extremely conditional for the person who plays a victim. And the conditions always seem to be out of the person's control as in "If only my family supported me then I could get over my depression" or "If only my boss and co-workers appreciated me then I could enjoy my job." Maintaining a victim role keeps one forever trapped within depression because there is always a ready excuse for not getting well or enjoying life.
Attitude Makeover:
- There are things in life we cannot control, this is true. But there are many things we do have some control over. It is possible to take risks and make decisions for our life.
- Despite the fact that life can be unfair, we are still responsible for our life. The refusal to make a choice is, in fact, a choice. We are responsible for our lack of decision making and cannot blame anyone else for it.
- Bad things will always happen in our life but we can still up the ante for good things to happen as well. We do not have to exist as a leaf in the wind, at the mercy of whatever winds blow our way. We have an amazing ability to adapt and steer our direction of growth.
Bad Attitude #3: Being a naysayer of doom and gloom
Nobody is requiring you to be a perky Pollyanna who always sees the glass as half full. Reality dictates that there are times in life when you have to admit that things are less than hunky dory. But at the other extreme is someone who shoots down every positive suggestion much like attacking a butterfly with a cannon. Sometimes constant negativity can be overkill.
It can be very difficult for someone on the other end of depression who is trying to help. If every idea is met with, "I can't do that" then the discussion is soon over. The friend or family member who is wanting to help may get worn down to believing the negative predictions of their loved one. Feelings of hopelessness can be contagious.
The person who is a naysayer of doom and gloom thinks, "Nobody can help me. Nothing will ever work. Everything in my life is bad and always will be."
It is like they took a paintbrush and colored everything black. In such an all or nothing world there are no gradations of color or light. There is only darkness. Beware the person who holds a lighted candle as it will be quickly snuffed out. Past, present, and future collapse into one time frame where nothing good has happened, is happening, or will happen. The person with this attitude resists any attempts to show proof that their perceptions may be faulty. In fact great energy may be invested in maintaining a hopeless view of life.
Attitude Makeover:
- Life is never all doom and gloom nor is it always rainbows and sunshine. There are many nuances of feelings and life experiences which don't fall into all or nothing categories. Life is neither bad nor good. It just is. We color our experiences of past, present, and what we envision the future to be, with our subjective judgment.
- In order to get better it is imperative to let some light in so that you can see opportunities and possibilities. If you keep closing the metaphorical shades, you won't see that there is a lot of beauty out there.
- Viewing the world as a perpetual dark place is easy as you don't have to do anything but defend the darkness. Giving up this attitude means you will have to take action and become responsible for your own happiness and well being. Many people who have emerged from the depths of depression will tell you that it is well worth the effort.
Now we want to hear from you. Do you feel that you or someone you know may have one or more of these attitudes? Do you feel that such attitudes are the result of having depression or do you think that such attitudes precede symptoms of depression? How have you managed to overcome elements of your "bad attitude"? Tell us your story. You know we love to hear from you.

Isn't it pretty?
I think MSFs are works of art…
I showed my Mum and my boyfriend and called it beautiful… they didn't understand me. MAC addict problems!
This baby is from the new Heavenly Creatures collection, a collection based all around the galaxy.
This is MAC's Mineralized collection of the year and it's pretty big – 4 MSFs, 4 blushes, mineralised eyeshadows, lipsticks, etc…
It's described as a peachy pink with golden shimmer – pretty spot on description.
This is the perfect colour for a highlight or a blush – on top of your cheeks with a matte blush, or on its own. I loves a bit of versatility.
It's not a particularly unique shade, but I love the formula – it's shimmery but not insanely glittery and is soft and blend-able.
I'm going to use it in a FOTD so you can see what it looks like used on the skin (should be up tomorrow)
What do you guys think?

They safely segregate pedestrian traffic from cars, trucks and buses, we pass them eith on foot or while driving on a daily basis, we lean against them for a moment's rest without giving a thought to them and yet in some ways Steel Bollards are the unsung heroes of our streetscapes.
Bollards have been around for quite some time and have been adapted from their quite unrelated beginnings, centuries ago as tether points for sea craft and much later for horses and other animals.
Today, we use these incredibly invaluable fixtures as both items of architectural beauty and as functional physical or visual barriers.
One of the most common uses for steel bollards is in the definition of a perimeter with style. Steel bollards aren't the only option to use in this setting, concrete or stone units or surface markings can technically perform exactly the same task, but there is something definitely more apealing about a line or arc of steel bollards.
KPC supply numerous styles of steel bollards, a very wide range in fact, with a style to suit just about any setting. We also supply ranges that are specifically suited to installation in car parking areas, for example, with brightly coloured powder-coated finishes over the galvanised steel to provide improved visibility.
In fact we have so many different profiles and finishes that we are sure you'll find something that compliments perfectly the architectural style of your project.
From classically styled black ductile iron models to the ultra-modern stainless steel slash-tops and dome-tops, to the improved visibility steel bollards in bright yellow, you're sure to find the perfect steel bollards for your project.
There are a number of anchoring options, with some bollards being concreted into place whilst others may be retro-fitted by simple bolting in place. We also have removable and lockable bollards, perfect for areas such as parking bays or access routes that need to be opened at times.
Contact our team at KPC to see how Steel Bollards from KPC can provide a perimeter of style and function for your project. Click here for our Steel Bollards page.
Contact us by phone or email and see how we can meet your needs for construction materials. We think you'll be pleasantly surprised. See our Contact Us page for contact information.

Before & After Photos
Removing hair does not make it grow back thicker, darker or quicker. The opposite is usually the case. Laser Hair Removal may cause hair to come back slower and thinner, if it comes back at all. Hair reduction is considered permanent when most of the treated hair does not return for a period of time longer than its usual growth cycle. After a series of treatments, most hair is permanently removed.
Most commonly, Laser Hair Removal is used to reduce hair growth on the face, back, legs, forearm, underarm, and bikini line. However, it can be used to reduce or eliminate the amount of hair on any area of the body. The number of treatments required for optimal long term benefits depends on the area to be treated and individual hair density and hair growth cycles (which can be affected by age, ethnicity, weight, hormones, diet, medication, and metabolism). As with any procedure, certain people will not be good Laser Hair Removal candidates.

Order as much, or as little as you choose – In the Quantity box above, simply enter the Face Value denomination you would like to receive ( ex: for $5 Face Value, enter 5, for $50 Face Value, enter 50). Quantities of $100, $500 or $1000 Face Value are shipped in heavy canvas bank bags for easy storage and transport. Get your 90% silver coins securely shipped from a dealer you can trust. These 90% silver coins will contain a variety of pre-1964 U.S. coins in dimes and quarters.
Sometimes, these coins are referred to as "junk silver," not because they are less profitable to invest in but because, more times than not, the coins are well worn after years of public circulation. Many investors prefer these 90% coins to other bullion assets, especially if they are concerned about societal, political or economic factors which could cause a currency collapse.
In this scenario, 90% silver coins would be a natural choice, already being recognized as a familiar currency in the U.S. and being backed by the pure silver value of the exchange. In this way, pre-1964 silver coins are seen as being more "street-wise" than other bullion choices.
Having 0.715 ounces of pure silver per $1 Face Value in the highly recognized and usable format of circulated U.S. coinage, 90% silver is among the most liquid, versatile, private and portable bullion investments available. Made up of a random selection of dimes and quarters, you will immediately recognize the heft, weight and "feel" of real money — money with lasting value and hard-earned respect.

Ride Recommendations at the Disney World
by Jimmy
(Indian Trail, NC)
Dad, We are headed to Disney this Saturday and we are going to follow the recommended parks and dates from touring plans. We are hitting only one park per day. Our group has two 8 year olds and a 4 year old. I know we can't hit all of the attractions but which ones are "must do's ??"
We going to Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, and Hollywood Studios. Which rides at each park should we concentrate on visiting since we can't get to all of them. Thanks for all of your help and advice.
Have a great day.

Dad's this is gonna be fun AnswerJimmy,
It would be real easy for me to list each ride and talk about each one of them, but I've already done that so I'll just talk about my ride recommendations for your Disney World trip.
I would have a real different list if your kids were older, but here are my recommendations for 4 and 8 year olds ...
In the Magic KingdomWhen you first arrive in the Magic Kingdom, go directly to Dumbo and ride it. The 8 year olds might not like it, but the probably will. Here are the others in the Magic Kingdom
- Buzz Lightyear
- Country Bear Jamboree
- It's a Small World (everyone should ride once)
- Pirates of the Caribbean
In EpcotEpcot is a bit difficult for younger children but there are a couple of goodies
In Disney Hollywood StudiosYour day should start at Toy Story Mania.
In the Animal KingdomShows take the cake here ...
Dad's Bottom LineJimmy, this list is by no way comprehensive, but it does have the not to be missed rides and shows for younger children. You won't want to miss the afternoon parades at the Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom. You won't want to miss the firework shows. Oh, yeah, don't forget Dad's favorite ride ... the monorail.

Project: Catch-22
Pro Arts Shows
Still Present Pasts: Korean Americans and the "Forgotten War"
Inspired by Korean American life stories of struggle, survival and compassion, three visual artists, three performance artists, a documentary filmmaker, a psychologist, and a historian came together to create a common vision for Still Present Pasts and its elements. As the oral histories are retold via text, audio, and video recordings, visitors experience the projected images of soldiers from all sides, cross a twelve-foot bridge of division and reconciliation, and are asked to help piece together gaps in family history via an interactive puzzle. All this and more intermingle with installation art, photographs, historical texts and first-person recollections to create a strong visual and deeply evocative experience.

Following yet another successful consultation, this time on the 26th of August at the Clapton Overground, we are able to make plans for the next steps of greening this station.
The consultation brought together a team of locals and garden enthusiasts interested in seeing their station go through an Energy Garden transformation. A lot of interest was shown in the consultation and we even gained over 30 new signatures for our emailing list.
Overall there was a large interest for planting fruit trees, especially apple trees, as well as perennial plants and herbs. The next step for the station is for the Green Team to finish off the garden design ideas, followed by setting a second consultation day for the public and local enthusiasts.

Cod Almighty | Article

When Lee attended the B team boycott match between Internet Mariners and Donny R'sonists, it reminded him what made him love football in the first place
When Lee attended the B team boycott match between Internet Mariners and Donny R'sonists, it reminded him what made him love football in the first place
I didn't play any part in the organisation of this game, nor do I have any connection with either the Internet Mariners or the Donny R'sonists. What I did have was a very strong compunction to be in attendance.
Walking to St Christopher's I'd hoped to see the roads jammed with a multitude of traffic, full of passionate football supporters. The fact that this didn't happen didn't dampen my spirits too much, and entering the ground it was heartening to be greeted by the sight of smiles, collection buckets and the nearside of a pitch lined with people.
Being of a slightly contrary nature, I made my way to the far side and took up my position to view proceedings. When a linesperson joined me, he questioned the reason for my solitude and I outwardly laughed and shrugged, and inwardly wondered the same. Either way I was pleased to be there.
The game began at quite a lick with both sides obviously keen to give their all in front of a healthy crowd of 161. The thing I love about football is that, whatever the level, as long as there's passion and commitment on show I become absorbed. On this day that wasn't in question. A comical pitch invasion by a very small dog and its very slow owner added to rather than detracted from the spectacle. A goalless first half flew by, a testament to all participants.
Watching reminded me of long summer nights playing until it became impossible. I always loved the point at which we realised that it was ridiculous, and yet we played on
The second half began in twilight with electrical generators in each corner enabling play. The game continued in the same manner as the first half and a Doncaster goal only served to increase the pace of the game. As night fell it began to become apparent that it would be impossible to complete the full 90 minutes. Tackles became rash as frustrations grew and the light slipped further and further away.
Watching this reminded me of long summer nights playing football on the park until it became impossible. I always loved the point at which we realised that it was ridiculous, and yet we played on. Just like my childhood games, this game continued long after it had reached that point, perhaps more through duty than choice but wonderfully apt nonetheless.
At the final whistle on 75 minutes there was a disappointed resignation that the darkness had won... Or had it?
This game represented those very ideals which drew me to it more than 40 years ago: passion, commitment and, perhaps most importantly, a sense of fun. I'm grateful to the organisers for allowing me to renew my vows in support of an extremely worthy cause.

The Next Bomb: Arsenic to follow the Kidney Disease and Dengu
Posted on September 18th, 2016
By Garvin Karunaratne
Firstly the Kidney Disease, then the Dengu and what I think is coming over the horizon- is Arsenic. No one upto now has stated that the third, Arsenic is on its way. But signs are there and unless immediate action is taken it will take a major toll. Both the Kidney Disease and Dengu are out of control today. Both take toll of thousands annually and the toll doubles every few years.
Let me give my opinion on the Kidney Disease. I have given my opinion earlier too but no one has picked it up. To start with it has to be accepted that the Kidney Disease is of recent origin. If the kidney disease had been there our ancient irrigation system and the ancient tank civilization that has lasted on a sustainable basis for centuries would not be there.
It is my opinion that the kidney disease started with the excessive use of fertilizer, weedicides and such chemicals.
Something drastic did happen and the kidney disease erupted.
I happen to know the Dry Zone , its agriculture systems well because I have worked long in the Agrarian Services. I was one of the pioneer administrators in introducing the use of new varieties of paddy and enlisting the farmers to use inorganic fertilizers to boost yields. I introduced the Paddy Lands Act to the Anuradhapura District in 1963, organized cultivation committees, democratically elected , three hundred of them. It was a vast staff of three Assistant Commissioners, ten Divisional Officers and some fifty to sixty overseers working, holding meetings till late in the night, planning paddy cultivation and the use and supply of fertilizer and chemicals. That was a yeoman effort including weekends working 14 or more hours on most days. It was a combined effort of our Agrarian Services and the technical agricultural department that enabled the breakthrough- the Green Revolution came to stay. The farmers got bounty harvests and benefited.
Today we have got cracking with this Kidney Disease, as it has reached almost epidemic status- some 40,000 dead and a mass of people going through medical attention. Farmers do not have the funds to travel for dialysis at hospitals far from home. Dialysis machines offer a solution but our hospitals are also short of dialysis machines. The use of Glyphospate has been banned and water is even distributed by bowsers. To my mind all what has been done is in the short term, because we have failed to find the real cause.
It is my opinion that the real cause is the breakdown of the agricultural extension service..
It is sad that many authorities will not believe this.
How did the extension system breakdown?
Firstly the World Bank decided to sabotage the agricultural extension system that Third World countries had developed through imposing the Training & Visit System(TVS) of Agricultural Extension, by which the agricultural extension staff were required to contact the farmers direct, without using any of the farmer's organizations like cooperatives and cultivation committees. Accordingly the agricultural extension staff had no method of working with the entire farming population. At best the extension staff met a few farmers and this precluded the majority of farmers from being involved. This was a system that was suitable for a context where there were few farmers like in the USA. In Third World countries the farmers were legion in number and they could never be contacted by any extension staff unless they use cooperatives and other farmer's organizations. This TVS was imposed on our countries by force. As pointed out by me as far back as 1983,
What happened was the imposition of a system akin to the US on the Third World… The TVS is financed under IDA Credit, where funds are brought in on foreign aid to meet the salaries of local officers and servicing costs. The IDA Credit is based on a design that has a repayment grace period of ten years, so that the Government that takes the loan has nothing to worry about the consequences of re payment… The writer is of the opinion that this is the main cause for the adoption of the TVS."(From Administering Rural Development in the Third World, University Press, 1983) It was my contention then that this TVS was intended to cripple the extension services built up by Third World Countries. This is a part of the sabotage that is evident today in the IMF's Structural Adjustment Programme, which entices countries to give up exchange controls, import controls, liberalise the use of foreign exchange, and depend on borrowed finance leading to our countries getting into debt. Debt was the weapon used to bring our countries to a 'colonial' subservient state. My book, How the IMF Ruined Sri Lanka, Godages tells this sad story.
In the case of Sri Lanka two other changes were made. Firstly the cultivation committees were abolished and with this change there were no farmer organizations at the village level.
Secondly President Premadasa with one stroke of the pen promoted all agricultural overseers to be Grama Niladharis and with this the agricultural extension staff no longer existed at the village level. The overseers had an year's training. The qualified extension staff was at the Divisional Level and each Agricultural Instructor had around five to thirteen thousand farmers. Years later Niyamakas were appointed, to handle the work of the agricultural overseers. These Niyamakas have no training whatsoever and with this the farmers had no one to contact for advice., Instead of farmers looking for advice, the Niyamakas are actually the laughing stock of the farmers even today.
Due to these changes the farmers had no one to guide them and they commenced using fertilizer, applying weedicides etc as they pleased and this to my mind is the cause for the spread of the kidney disease.
To add to the problem today we have a system of private companies providing advice. This is a very ineffective extension service.
Sadly our experts have failed to identify this very important cause. Ministries of Agriculture do not wish to admit that the agricultural extension system is ineffective.
It is sad to realize that the entire farming community in the Dry Zone of Sri Lanka will be wiped out within a few decades unless immediate action is taken.. This is happening within our very eyes. The banning of chemicals is not the answer. The banning of Glyphosphate has already reduced the crop in paddy and tea. Scientists including Professor Chandre Dharmawardena have opined that banning chemicals that are essential for cultivation is not the remedy. The remedy is to ensure that there is an effective and systematic extension system like what we had when there were trained agricultural. Overseers and vibrant farmer institutions like cultivation committees and multipurpose cooperatives at the village level.
An attempt is being made to get farmers to use traditional varieties and to use compost- organic fertilizer. Traditional varieties yield only half the crop of new varieties and crop production will suffer with the result that we will have to import rice. The entire Green Revolution was based on using new varieties with the use of inorganic fertilizer. An effective extension service has to guide the farmers in the use of chemicals.
The remedy is simple- to train the Niyamakas and also to strengthen the staff of Agricultural Instructors at the Divisional level aimed at establishing an effective extension system.
The Dengu
Dengu has reached almost epidemic levels and many people have died. Dengu eradication commenced in the Nineties and then hordes of individual spraying staff were busy everyday, swarming out of the Urban Councils. They could be seen visiting the homes of people and spraying. What was not evident is what they sprayed. They took with them the chemical which they mixed with water and then sprayed. The problem was that they sprayed with the chemical only if they were paid a santhosam lavishly. Otherwise they did spray but with water.
I pointed this out in an article that appeared in the Press but no one took notice. I suggested the system which was followed to spray DDT to eradicate malaria. I served in Anuradhapura and the spraying was done by a team of sprayers with a supervisor.
We are today reaping the effect of our own folly. It is time that we even resort to spraying DDT, but in an effective manner like what we did in the case of malaria.
Further we today concentrate only on home gardens and the premises that we can see. We have conveniently forgotten the drains on either side of the roads which are full of putrid water and infested with dengu and other mosquitoes. It is essential that this is done by a team equipped with iron rods and at times tractors may be required to remove large slabs of concrete. I suggested this but no one has picked it up. When slabs are used crevices should be kept to enable spraying.
The Arsenic Bomb is coming. This is due to the fact that almost ninety nine percent of the bottled water sold in Sri Lanka comes from tube wells.
Tube wells were concentrated on in the green revolution in Bangladesh and the benefits were extolled in terms of crop production. However the incessant pumping of water from a particular strata of soil has made the water have a concentration of arsenic. Today after decades of extracting water through tube wells it has been found that the arsenic content is high. The result is arsenic in human beings that causes death through Cancer. The arsenic epidemic in Bangladesh is well documented. The Bulletin of the WHO states:
Exposure to arsenic through drinking water sourced from tube wells is a global health problem that is particularly devastating in Bangladesh. (It is) estimated that 35 to 77 million people are involved…. The largest mass poisoning in history…. Causing cancers of the skin, bladder, kidney and lung."( From Flanagen, Johnson & Zheng, Arsenic in Tube Well Water in Bangladesh", in Bulletin of WHO, 14/09/2012)
Today 43,000 people are killed annually in Bangladesh..
We can easily get over this problem if we concentrate on our springs and streams as the source for bottled water. . I have worked on minor irrigation in the districts of Nuwara Eliya, Kandy and Kegalla and can state that it is easy to find streams and springs from which bottled water can be harnessed. The Sinharaja Area in the Matara District can also be a source.
Some authorities may think that my suggestion re bottled water is far fetched. But unless this fact is taken into consideration immediately we will have the Arsenic bomb on our population.
My suggestions re the Kidney Disease and Dengu have gone unheeded. Let us take immediate steps to eradicate the Kidney Disease and Dengu and also take immediate action to ensure that bottled water is sourced at springs to avoid the emergence of Arsenic.
I am sad to realize that I was in charge of the team that spread the use of new varieties of paddy and the use of inorganic fertilizer and chemicals. Little did I know then that five decades later our valiant effort then will cause death to the farming population in the Dry Zone.

Keepin' it GEM™ is this years version of That's so GEM™ which is no longer cool.
If you haven't subscribed to my GEM newsletter you may have been unaware that GEM's debut single We're GEM! was released this week.
The music video was uploaded last month and the GEMbers have been keeping track of total views. It's currently at 70k and they are hoping it breaks 100k. Something special is planned if it reaches that milestone.
Prior to watching the video I had a few ideas of my own.
I thought it would be so GEM if they wore color-coded bikinis and swam in pools filled with their gem. Like Scrooge McDuck swimming in gold coins in Duck Tales.
Producer: The concept is pretty simple. We'll fill ten massive warehouses with color-coded gems. You'll dance, frolic, and swim in the gems. While wearing bikinis of course. I happened to bring samples. Please change into them now.
*Sara is given a super-cute bikini made with material that dissolves in water and Yuki is given an over-sized XXL bikini that isn't even color-coded*
Maya: Yada.
*everyone leaves thinking the producer is a pervert*
Producer: It wasn't my idea! *cries*
*the next day*
Producer: *talking to Saori* They didn't like your idea.
Idea #2: Star Trek the Next Gemeration
A science-fiction style video could have explained the birth of the GEMbers. In an alternate dimension there are ten perfect gems, each much larger than normal. They are located on ten different planets spread all across the universe. Lightning happens to strike each planet simultaneously causing the gems to crack open. Babies crawl out of the gems and they are covered in color-coded embryonic slime. The babies rapidly grow and become the GEM members. Because they were born inside gems they have GEM super-powers. Maya's super power is being center. Sara's super power is being super cute. Rana's is also being super cute. Actually a lot of them have the same super power. Yuki's super power is being color-coded purple.
The music video would be two hours long.
Instead this is what happened
Producer: *talking to CG guy* We don't have a lot of money, but I need you to make a backdrop that has a lot of gems, is cute, and has gems. And remember it has to be cute.
*2 weeks later *
CG guy: I finished. You may want to review it first though.
Producer: No I trust you. I mean how could you mess it up? We just needed a backdrop that was cute and had gems.
CG guy: I really think you should look at it. I *may have* been high when I created it. Replace "may have" with "definitely" and "high" with "completely overdosed." I'm surprised I am still alive.
How else can you explain this?
The CG guy was clearly high. The only question is which drug?
Probably cocaine.
Definitely cocaine.
And then things got weirder
Directer: We'll have Maya's gem eat all the other gems and become a giant heart GEM!!
Assistant: That sounds expensive. Can we afford that?
Accountant: We can definitely afford that!!
Maya: Cool. My GEM ate all the other gems and turned into a giant heart gem.
Sara: Maya's GEM is so beautiful… Even though it ate all of our gems.
The first time I saw the video I thought the opening scene was a little terrifying. Weird colors, weird shapes, and too many layers of weird CG. But the more I watched it the more I liked it. I really appreciated how each girl got equal screen time. Check out the Random screen-shot generator:
"Lunchtime" starring Maya and Yuki
"Am I in this Scene?" starring Maya, Yuki, and Natchi

The European Commission was to submit a bill yesterday that would force phone networks in the EU to retain traffic data for one year -- and Internet access providers for six months -- for possible use in investigating organized crime and terrorism.
The bill -- which in recent years has stalled over privacy issues -- must win approval from all 25 EU governments to take effect.
Negotiations on data retention have made no progress in the past due to privacy concerns in some EU capitals and the European Parliament, and cost concerns in the telecommunications industry.
EU Justice Commissioner Franco Frattini said the bill would not apply to the content of communications -- only to numbers dialed, locations used and Web sites that police may want to explore in connection with investigations.
He said fundamental rights have been carefully weighed in the drafting of the bill, and said data protection authorities would be involved in evaluating the legislation.
Telecommunications companies will be compensated for extra costs incurred as a result of the bill, Frattini added. Industry officials have put the added cost of retaining large volumes of data at a US$122 million or more.
"This proposal is a very balanced and constructive one which takes account of the fundamental rights to security, to a private life and protection of personal data, as well as different interests, in particular those of law enforcement authorities and communication providers," Frattini said in a statement.
He also proposed that the EU sign the 46-nation Council's anti-terrorism treaty, which aims to deny funding to terrorists.
Frattini also issued a report on how governments can stop young Europeans from drifting into fundamentalist Islam, and proposed spending US$8.5 million on pilot projects to improve anti-terrorism cooperation between EU governments.
The data retention issue gained new urgency after the July 7 London public transport bombings that killed 52 people and the four suspected suicide bombers, and the failed bombings there two weeks later.
After the second round of attacks, British police tracked a suspect to Italy on the basis of his cell phone traffic.
The bill now on the table replaces one that a handful of EU governments have proposed, but that would lack the power of EU-wide law, sideline the European Parliament and require telecommunications and Internet operators to retain traffic data for up to four years.
"The Commission proposal now puts data retention rules on a sound legal basis, ensures the full [participation] of the European Parliament and limits the data retention periods to the extent absolutely necessary," said Frattini.
Britain, which now holds the EU's rotating presidency, has pledged to get the EU to enact an ambitious anti-terrorism package by year's end. That includes the data retention bill and steps to boost airport security, share more intelligence and upgrade passports and identity cards.
EU governments now have a mishmash of data retention rules: 15 of the 25 EU states have no legislation, according to EU officials.

Yesterday I did a small collaborative shoot in Hamilton with some lovely Waikato girls. The model Jessy Brant shaved her hair off about a month ago and raised $2850 for cancer research as a result. I wanted to photograph someone who was new to being in front of a camera and who was surprised by how beautiful the results were. Jessy was perfect for this and has a strength that underlies her inexperience.
