Where can I do some shopping?
Oxford Street offers over 300 business premises where you can shop. This is the most well known street in London when it comes to shopping. You can also walk around New Bond Street, Regent Street and Jeremy Street and Carnaby Street. All these streets are typical of London and each one of them stands out for some specific products like formal and alternative clothes, and even souvenirs to take back home as gifts.
What can I do outdoors?
London is famous for its parks. There are eight Royal Parks all in all. Each one of them is perfectly preserved and has lakes, boats, outdoor theatres and golf course. Access is free.
Are there river tours?
You can sail the Thames using Riverboat service. These water transports are used in the same way as the underground or the bus, that is to say, Londoners use it to move around the city, although tourists commonly use them to go for a ride through the famous river and watch the city from another perspective.
Standard voltage in the United Kingdom is 230/240V AC, 50Hz. The sockets have three pins and the European, Australian and American adapters are available at any electricity store. We remind you that without adapters or transformers, electric devices can be damaged that may even destroy them or render them useless.
Where should I call in case of emergency?
In case of emergency you must call 999 to call the fire fighters, the police or to ask for an ambulance. The common number used in all of Europe, 112, also works in England.
What measurement system is used in England?
The English use the metric and the imperial systems indistinctively. In order to convert a kilometre into a mile, you have to multiply it by 0.62; to convert a metre into feet multiply it by 3.28; to convert a kilo into a pound, multiply it by 2.2.
Which is the English currency?
England has not joined the European Union convention for the use of the euro. Therefore, the United Kingdom still uses its classical currency: the pound sterling. We recommend you to check its value of the dollar, the euro or your local currency by the time you leave for London.
Public bathrooms
If you are in the city and you need to go to the bathroom, you can do so in bus or train stations or in the perimeters of the attraction that you are visiting, and you will be charged only 20p for the usage.

Forgot to post this picture, This is about eye contact, No no I am not trying to promote contact lenses. He is looking down at me with contempt. See the pride in his eyes. I don't like this.
Took this picture on Mala Chinna's terrace.
I'll be 59 in January. All the eye to eye contacts I had in my entire life would add up to just five minutes, perhaps less. I talk, I have lots of friends but hardly any eye contact with them while talking. I can't say I am not comfortable talking eye to eye, looking directly in to the eye is a strain. You just can't do it all the time.
You get to know the person's intentions in a fraction of a second. Popular belief is that people avoid eye contact while lying. This is not true. I have seen politicians look directly into your eyes and lie. They do it on TV all the time. They are professional liars. Or a shop keeper or a waiter looks straight into your eyes and says it is fresh while pushing something stale to you.
Oh No ! this chap is not lying. I saw him looking straight into my eyes.
This was different, this was scary, looks angry, direct eye contact gives a spine chilling experience. No he wouldn't give up. No contest. I withdrew within seconds, took a few pictures and moved away, turned back and looked, he was still staring at me without a blink for more than 5 minutes. Is it because they are honest and nothing to fear ? I posted a story few months ago MONKEY SENSE It is about how a monkey fooled me and stole a packet of biscuits from my camera bag.
I can hardly see his eyes But I know he is looking at me. Very strange feeling. I was not comfortable. They are able to hold for long period.
Looks like this chick is trying to say some thing to me.
This mother and child on a low branch of a tree, the baby's contact was longer than the mother's
It kept staring at me for a long time. Mother looked away, I was not very interesting for her.
Cute baby lovely eyes. Natural Kaajal, Kaajal is an eyeliner ladies use.
I have seen birds staring at each other, in anger or in love, but mostly during fights. Like the two boxers who keep staring at each others eyes. trying to guess the next move.
He's got bad attitude for sure ! This is a RIVER TERN chick. Doesn't look very happy.
Ah I love this, Sweet kids, Children normally look in to your eyes, when they want something.
I think as we grow older we avoid eye contact. Please tell me what you think.

With the knowledge less than that of a monkey, I started tinkering with the template. There is something called HTML colour code, I don't know anything about it, nor do I know the language. If I type red I don't get red. I messed it up. Big goofs followed.
Well ! did it all by myself, I refuse to have a teacher. I learn by making mistakes, which I keep repeating. Had a lot of problems. Comments simply disappeared. I could see the name but no comments. I realised that the font colour and the back ground colour is the same, merged with the background.
Any way I am going to fiddle with it some more. Please tell me if you have any problems reading the page.
Just took a walk, I am going all over India but not going anywhere in my city. Nothing happens here. This used to be a potters colony, all but two disappeared. Buildings have come up on all sides.The wheel is mechanical, run by hand. It is not motor driven.
Vinayaka Chaturthi festival is coming this week. Grand celeberations in Bombay, not much in Chennai. Of late our citizens have started copying Bombay style. Now there is a procession, tense situation for the police, as things go out hand sometimes, resulting in communal riots, all new to the city, which was not there about 10 years ago. Most of the idols are mass produced. Some stick to good old ways.
This is not the final product. Some of them are painted. After the pooja and celeberation, they are all immersed in the sea by the end of the day.
This picture below was taken about 30 years ago, same place, when the colony was full of potters. Their survival was guarenteed. The pots they made were suitable for fire wood. Now no body uses fire wood. Their pots are not suitable for gas stoves. Steel vessel boom drove them to starvation. Have to ask Chinna if they are ok for microwaves.
Water stored in mud pots always remained cool, It used to absorb chlorine, We had mud pots in all the classes in our school, Long before coolers came. Now mud pots are used only on special occasions like weddings and funerals.

Please say Hello to the weaver bird.Amazing craftsman and a terrific architect. Very tiny, hardly four inches long, but for such a tiny life the effort is equal to building Sears Towers all alone without any help. The work has to go on schedule. It can't afford any delay.
Works very fast, Perhaps works alone ?? Not sure, I have not seen any help or two birds working on one nest. Gathers twigs from nearby fields. Has to fly quite a distance with each twig in its beak. This is how the weaver bird starts weaving the nest.
They build or weave different nests together, six or seven were on the job weaving different nests at the same time.
I couldn't go any closer. I was standing very far in a harvested field and watching the action.They all would fly away when a car or a truck passed on the nearby country road. I decided not to go any closer and scare them away, which might cause delay in their tight scedule. They continued weaving in pouring rain.
The top is loosely connected to the weakest part of the tree branch, almost to the tip, so that heavier birds don't sit on it, so flexible that it swings frantically in the wind and they continue weaving their home at an amazing pace. If it is rigid and tight eggs and the chicks would be thrown out of the nest.
Saw dark clouds, it was getting pretty dark. Suddenly it started to pour in buckets. I kept the camera covered in plastic, back in the camera bag. I was out in open standing on a field, no shelter, the only option was to rush to the tree and scare away the weaving birds. I remained where I was completely drenched looking like a damn fool.
Saw a couple of cars slowing down at a distance, perhaps taking my picture.
Is that a scarecrow ?
No, he's got a bag and looking up
Scarecrows don't wear jeans and t shirts you dummy !
and they don't hang a camera bag !
Imported scarecrow may be ??
I am just standing there out in open in a heavy downpour doing nothing, No umbrella, Just standing there like a statue.
Never travel with me. This was near the banks of river Cauvery.
The rain stopped, I continued taking pictures. Through the lens I could see the interior of the nest which was surprisingly dry. It is water proof, believe me, and very very strong.
Comparing notes ? Is there any contest ? who finishes first or admiring each other's nest ?.
Checking Checking ! The opening is very small, so that bigger birds don't enter and eat away their eggs and chicks.
Who teaches them to weave ?We think only we the humans are the most intelligent creatures on the planet.
Two of them here, very busy, They get angry and fight.
I'll take you to the court and sue you for stealing my design ?
Yea they have problems too !
who doesn't have ???
Any way they continued weaving their nest.
This is how the nest looks from behind, It was facing me, I did not go and check, it will have the opening on the other side. thats what I assumed.
They stop and watch the neighbour weaving. Time for a break.
Sometimes they are completely outside and insert the twig without touching ? Don't know.
They keep fluttering in the air and weave.
They bring only one twig at a time, they keep flying back and forth to collect twigs.
The picture is not upside down, the bird is hanging upside down and weaving defying gravity, clinging on with its tiny claws.
Checking the interior ? Hellow !! How is your home coming up ? You need any help ?
Off to get another twig
It was getting dark, saw the clouds gathering, It started to pour again. Took a bus and went straight to Reeni's house dripping wet. Her dad pressed my t-shirt dryCherian and Reeni are in chicago. Had a hot cup of tea.
Thank you Mr. Samuel.

Never travel with me, I jump into a moving train, some goof... wrong train, then I jump off the moving train. Reached Ernakulam, standing whole night, one sweet kind girl wearing red Shalwaar khamees, cleared her berth for me and asked me to sleep somewhere in the morning after Palakkat station...Couldn't sleep. I was afraid I would miss my station. Stupid train was 4 hours late and I nearly missed the boat race.
Pouring in Ernakulam, reached my friend Sathyaraj's house, Benoi had already left for Alleppy, took a bus, reached Alleppy just in time. All the politicians were delivering long speeches killing my patience. No sleep, I was angry and tired. I wanted to kick those politicians in to the backwaters.
Heavy crowd, I had to choose the right spot, almost 2 kilometer long race, couldn't be at the starting and the finishing point at the same time. Finally chose a least crowded place.
Some one who had no right to open his mouth was singing. I couldn't see the politicians and the singers as I was standing very far. I could hear the blaring loud speakers all around.
Lots of boats, all shapes and sizes, Don't know why they invite politicians, some guy was still screaming his lungs out in pouring rain.
Different categories of boats, decorated, colourful, I was just worried how I would get back to Ernakulam and sleep.
Things have gone commercial, most of the boats are sponsored by big business houses, all participants paid, good thing it is. Otherwise these poor chaps used to row thier life out just for a glass of local country liquor, Charayam
Colours all over, terrific atmosphere, I had no strength to stand there for long, decided to shoot the atmosphere instead.
I was at the mid point, so could not see which team won, as I was far away from the starting and finishing point about 2 kilometers apart.
For the fear of losing my place I could not move, my legs were aching, It was pouring and I was sleepy, 45 kilometers away from the bed.
The cops were all over trying to keep the crowd from jumping into the water. Some over enthusiastic chaps cheering up their team
Many races, according to the size, different age groups, number of people in each boat, different categories. Some races had only 2 teams.
Fights were breaking out every ten minutes, exchanging blows, most of them were drunk. Some were completely sloshed lying there in pouring rain.
2 chaps drunk and fighting fell over me. I had no option but to jump into the water. I patted my own back, I am old tired and sleepy still my reflexes were good. Not bad not bad. Couple of sober guys helped my out of the water. It was slippery. I was slipping back into water.
Late in the afternoon, it was getting dark, Sky was threatening to open up again. Every one was having fun.
4 or 5 guys on the boat standing, Thie job is to pep up the team members, singing songs.
Here you see them on the left, banging the wooden mast, giving the rhythm for uniform rowing. They just scream and scream.
Every one in the boat and the crowd is so involved,
all screaming their lungs out.
Please don't ask me how many people are on the boat, I wasn't counting. Couldn't post lots of pictures, there was a motor boat for umpires leading every race. And stupid politicians and their families and friends get into these motor boats. The real heros are the guys rowing their life out. winning or losing just did not matter to them they are out there just to have fun.
I decided to leave, couple of more races to go. I was wet and hungry. Found a tea shop, had one pazhampori, fried banana, took one bite decided agaist it, it was cold and too oily, had 2 parpu vada instead, Most important, I had a place to sit after a long wait. My legs were aching.
Who is this chap waving to the crowd ?
OUVVER Chief minister the guy next to me said, and he gave me the name which I forgot right there, no point trying to remember their names, the chief minister may not be in power next month, they come and go. The guy waving is the home minister, forgot his name too, chief minister is sitting with his back to the camera
Got back to the bus stand, hard to find the right bus in such a crowd, one policeman went looking for my bus, found the bus leaving, stopped it came running to me, sir here is your bus, and got me a seat.
Wow ! I said thank you. He waved at me, I waved him back.

Hey hey! I'm feeling a little bit better, so let's talk tropes.
"Trope" of late, has become a bit of a bad word when talking about stories, and I want to take a closer look at them… because I don't think they're all that bad. It's possible they're simply misunderstood.
What is a trope, anyway?
Merriam Webster's dictionary (my big, hardback version) defines TROPE as: "a word or expression used in a figurative sense." Other online dictionaries define it as, "Any literary device or figure of speech." Or, "a storytelling shorthand that the audience will recognize and understand instantly."
In effect, a trope is nothing more than a literary device used to make a story relatable or feel familiar. This is not a bad thing.
Fantasy is full of tropes.
Chosen Ones (particularly chosen ORPHANS), Evil empires ruled by the evilest of all evil villains, magical weapons that hold the key to everything needed to save the world (or destroy it), ancient mentors who are cryptic and extremely powerful, rag tag groups of random individuals who barely get along but must go on a quest to save the world and eventually become the best of friends, princesses in distress, enormous and terrifying monsters, hero discovering that he or she is actually RELATED to the evilest of all evil villains… and the list goes on.
And I would argue that they are, to a certain degree, necessary. Due to the massive and extensive world-building that goes into a creating a fantasy world, there is a certain amount of "anchoring" that is important to helping readers identify how this new world and the characters within are relatable to them.
There is little use in attempting to get away from tropes. Ecclesiastes 1:9 tells us that "there is nothing new under the sun." And that was written quite a while ago. In addition to this, I'm going to pull from some of my English classes the information that there are only 7 types of conflict available in any given story: Man vs. Man, Man vs. Self, Man vs. Nature, Man vs. Society, Man vs. Fate, Man vs. Machine, Man vs. Supernatural… and it becomes apparent fairly quickly that a certain amount of the familiar or "trope-ish" is going to be a necessary part of any story.
Where tropes fall apart is when they become cliches. It is important to remember when writing fantasy, that if you are going to use a trope, you should try to think of something fresh and new you can bring to the table. What can you do with that trope or storyline to make it more relatable to your audience, while also putting a different spin on it? You can spend your life trying to come up with "one original thought" like John Nash in A Beautiful Mind, or you can work with the tools at your disposal and come up with something familiar, but ultimately, uniquely YOURS.

By Amy Ash Nixon, as seen in the Caledonian Record: http://www.caledonianrecord.com/news/lyndon-task-force-hoping-for-town-r...
LYNDON — A task force formed in May, after the Community Visit process conducted by the Vermont Council on Rural Development, will propose a town recreation department.
Adrienne D'Olimpio, chair of the recreation task force, said the group will attend the Dec. 4 Lyndon Select Board meeting where they will present their summary report and pitch a rec. dept.
At a meeting held this week at Lyndon Town School, D'Olimpio and task force members summarized the group's research and findings from a community survey.
About a dozen organizations completed the survey.
"People need funding, space and volunteers," said D'Olimpio. Those responding also stressed how they would like to see a dedicated building for recreation as well as arts opportunities in the community, the group discussed.
D'Olimpio said, "The Vermont Children's Theater has a building, but a lot of these groups are meeting here and there and are struggling to find space."
Three of the most significant venues in the town of Lyndon for recreational opportunities are already owned by the town, the group discussed, but have either nonprofit groups attached to them to operate them, or in the case of the ice arena, an agreement with Lyndon Institute. The other two sites include the Lyndon Outing Club, and the pool at Powers Park.
The need for more volunteers is high, said D'Olimpio. In many cases the same handful of people are over-extended and trying to help multiple organizations. "People are being absolutely drained," she said.
Having a dedicated staff member to coordinate communications, marketing, registrations and more for all the groups through a central clearinghouse plus having a building would alleviate many strains on the groups already in place, the group discussed. The nonprofits would still need to have their own autonomy and volunteers, but could find support and strength under the umbrella of a town recreation department, they said.
There could also be savings financially, the task force noted.
Getting students from Lyndon State College involved in the recreation department as interns could also help out, they discussed, and having students involved in the recreation department planning and operation would be an important asset, the task force members agreed.
Helping citizens to understand the need for a recreation department to build support will be critical, it was discussed, as there may eventually be a ballot question seeking support for the proposal.
"We need to convey this is for everyone's benefit, we have to show that in the long-run, it will pay for itself," said recreation task force member Barrett Nichols. "It could reduce the costs for parents," in some programs.
Having programs available to students of all socio-economic backgrounds will be an important value in founding a town recreation program, the group agreed as part of its ethic in laying the foundation; they don't want to have programs which only kids whose parents can write a check can participate in, they agreed.
Proposing a facility that can succeed financially is critical, the group agreed.
D'Olimpio said, "This has to be sustainable; we can't end up with a beautiful facility that we can't sustain."
Task force member Carrie Tomczyk, co-owner of the Village Sports Shop in Lyndonville, said it is the recreational opportunities that drive the region, and bring people here, and it's businesses that cater to that that are surviving.
"People are moving here for one reason: lifestyle," said Tomczyk.
"We live here because we want to live in a place that has recreational opportunities, if we present it like that, it's a no brainer," she said.
D'Olimpio said she spoke at length with the head of St. Johnsbury's recreation department, Joe Fox. The town has had a department for 50 years, which St. Johnsbury Academy currently manages.
"It is not realistic to continue to rely on the sweat equity of hundreds of volunteers in our community to continue devoting thousands and thousands of hours of their time without some sort of umbrella organization to help them collaborate and cooperate together," the group writes.
"A Rec Department is not only an investment in public health, it is an investment in families and the community that will only make Lyndonville more of a destination for young families, college students, young adults and senior citizens," the group concludes. "We must dedicate money and resources to making this happen."

Birthday FunMay 30th, 2008 at 09:17 pm
So yesterday was a good day. After getting home from class, BF showed up with a couple pretty-wrapped gifts for me: A sewing machine (eep!), a cool sewing accessory kit, and 2 gift certificates-- $35 to Pat Catan's and $35 to Michael's. It's safe to say my crafting needs are covered for a while. I may even use the $ to make myself something
He says he has another present for me, but he's saving it for "Tara day," or tomorrow, the day we're celebrating my b-day just the two of us. He really went above and beyond and did more than I had expected by far. He's such a sweetie though.
We went to dinner last night, got some appetizers and baklavah to go. Then we went out with friends and had some drinks. That was a lot of fun.
I worked today and made a decent amount of money. Tonight BF and I are going to Columbus to eat mongolian BBQ and go to my friend's going away party. Tomorrow we're going to hang out in the Short North Art District, as long as weather permits. Tomorrow night we'll probably hang out with friends of ours. Sunday night mom wants to celebrate my birthday with me.
So it'll be a long and eventful weekend. And it's started so well! I'm having a wonderful birthday, despite being sick. I'm feeling a little better. Let's hop things look even better in the next few days

Untuk mak2 macam saya yang selalu dihimpit kerja (ye I kadang2 kena bawak kerja balik oii..), I had to deal with this for the time being. But like I said, I awasi apa yang dia tengok. Contoh2 video yang I bagi dia tengok macam ABC, Nursery Rhymes, Alif Ba Ta, selawat/zikir, numbers, Upin Ipin. My mother even buat cardio exercise in youtube with my lil' Aisyah lagi tuu..
Apa yang I perasan from my lil' Aisyah was:
- Her vocabulary expanded rapidly. She mimicked what Upin Ipin cakap, even made body moves. To me, that's a good progress
- Her knowledge on ABC, numbers, alif ba ta expanded.. She is able to recognize ABC/numbers, read ABC/numbers sampai 1-20, bila tunjuk colours dia tau apa dia and body parts/food.. She no longer needs flashcards sebab dia dah tau semua, so now we continue to teach her reading
- When she is in her playgroup, dia familiar dengan nursery2 rhymes yang teacher pasang, and boleh buat aksi2 yang lagu tu selalunya buat. Contoh, macam lagu Chicken Dance or Wheels on The Bus, she knows apa aksi yang nak dibuat --- ni penangan video la ni kann.. Which to me is a good thing
From sharing videos with her, we also learnt a few things:
- Kalau nak bagi dia membaca, jangan tunjuk dia laptop dulu. Yes, kids do get addicted to laptop/tablet, and same goes to my daughter. That's why it's really important to bertegas
- There are some kids videos which may not be suitable to her, in my opinion. For example, we are slowly phasing out daripada dia tengok kartun Pocoyo dalam youtube. Sebab kat dalam video tu karakter dia ada cakap "No!" sambil buat aksi berpeluk tubuh. We saw that she has been imitating that...
Hopefully you ladies not being judgmental ye.. :)

In this digitally-driven world that we live in, it seems like almost anything is made possible online. Online shopping, distance learning, online library and online dating are some of the many things people can do nowadays with technology. Virtual offices have been made possible too, so now you can work without a physical office space. Saving time and cost while eliminating fixed office hours, find out why the virtual office by Kuala Lumpur Entrepreneur Experience (KLEX) in Empire Subang is the best in the area.
Virtual office services
A virtual office comes with a lot of advantages, including flexible working hours, increase in productivity, costs saved on office rent & furniture, unlimited space for employees, needless for commute and so much more. However, without a physical office, what happens to receiving calls and parcel delivery to one physical office address?
When you opt for our virtual office rental service, KLEX offers an office address in Empire Tower, a strategic location in Subang Jaya. Even without an actual office, you'll be able to do a lot with the KLEX's office address. Let's begin with KLEX's virtual receptionist service.

Physical space
We're not only a virtual office provider, because we offer physical space such as meeting rooms, private office suites, serviced office and also event spaces. Meeting room rentals in Malaysia are possible when you register with KLEX. This is because we understand that even with a virtual office, there will be times when meetings are required as some matters are better discussed face-to-face. The closed, air-conditioned meeting room is ideal for business meetings, team meetings and off-site meetings with customised seating arrangements. KLEX provides an optimum event space in a lively area of Subang Jaya as well. Whether it's a corporate event, conference or workshop, this will be the perfect place for it. The clean space and comfortable ambience makes it an ideal spot to conduct various events.
Additionally, you can find serviced office rentals in Malaysia that's provided by KLEX. Private office suites offered at KLEX functions as temporary offices albeit at a much lower cost. Named the American Suite, Australasia Suite and the Europa Suite, these private office suites each have a different number of desks and seats, ranging from a capacity of 4 to 6 people. A simple setting covers the basic necessities like desk, seat and personal cupboard. White walls and white furniture makes it easier to concentrate on your work, with glass windows that allow you to relax your sight a little during short breaks.
The KLEX office at Empire Tower is a great location for all your business office solutions. Below the Empire Tower is the Empire Shopping Gallery, a mall that's filled with popular restaurants, services and retail outlets catered to the needs of residents nearby. If you have guests from abroad, they can also stay at the Empire Hotel that's located in the mall itself. At the opposite side of Empire Shopping Gallery, there is an older mall called Subang Parade, with similar outlets and amenities that are frequented by locals at the area.
A student-populated area, called SS15, is about a 15-minute walk from Empire Tower. It encompasses a wide variety of food, entertainment and service outlets in its vicinity. Furthermore, the KLEX is also close to clinics and renowned medical centres such as Ramsay Sime Darby Health Care and Sunway Medical Centre. Commuter and LRT stations are located about a 5-minute walk from Empire Tower, so it's easy to get around Selangor and to Kuala Lumpur. However, other options such as buses, taxis or even Grab cars can be quite convenient, especially in the happening area surrounding Empire Tower.
A cheap virtual office space is no longer hard to find. KLEX does it right by offering a full range of virtual office-related services at a very affordable price. We adjust our prices to meet the needs of most start-up companies which may have a small capital. So, you'll get to enjoy many benefits of a real office with a fee that's so much lesser.
For our virtual office plan, it comes in 2 packages, one with phone call services and one without. The phone call package includes a dedicated phone number, call-answering, call-screening, call transfer and voicemail services. Both include meeting room usage: 1 hour for the non-call package and 8 hours for the call package. The plan comes in a 3-month, 6-month, 12-month, 24-month and 36-month basis, with prices from RM75 – RM999 (non-call) and from RM600 – RM3,999 (call-inclusive). Meeting and event facilities such as theatres, classrooms and boardrooms are also offered at reasonable prices if you need them. These are calculated by hours, and they differ according to the period.
The price for private office suites starts from RM1,200 to RM2,000 per month, depending on the size of the suite. The package includes the use of KLEX's office as your business address, receiving mails and parcels, SMS or email notification, call handling and a 10-hour usage of the meeting room.
Space is not the only thing KLEX offers to all our clients. When you use our meeting rooms or private office suites, there are several facilities that we have prepared for your convenience. These facilities also provide a better experience of the real office environment.
Free and secured Wi-Fi comes with all packages in order to fulfil your business needs. If you require presentation tools like flipcharts, whiteboards, markers and projectors, KLEX has got them ready for you at our meeting rooms. Need to photocopy and print documents? You will be given access to the printing machines, with a low additional charge.
If you would like to provide more to your staff, we can offer refreshments such as free-flow coffee and tea for the duration of your office suite rental. Besides, if you're having a meeting, food catering is made possible with KLEX. Be it lunch, tea or light refreshments, we can always arrange it for you.

Have you ever looked back at your life and realized that God was guiding you along His path without your knowledge? Yes, I know that God is always with us and guiding our steps but I guess I thought I would know when He was guiding me. Evidently I'm either unobservant or clueless (or both!) because I usually only see His guiding hand in hindsight.
You see, I started a new job in January as my parish's Coordinator of Children's Catechesis. (Yay me!) It's my first full-time paying gig in ministry so I was a little concerned that I might be in over my head. But, as I've eased into my new role, I've started to build up some confidence and realize that, while I am in deep, I'm not in over my head.
The weird thing is that, while my formal education didn't really prepare me for my current position, God did. And He was pretty sneaky about it too! Without boring you with details from my resumé, let's just say that over the past 15 years God has been leading me down paths that have slowly given me the skills I need to do my job well. First, He led me to greater knowledge of my faith through various parish Bible studies. Then He led me to direct our parish's Vacation Bible School as a volunteer for many years. Then He put me in the path to learn more about teaching by becoming a preschool teacher. Not long after that, I started speaking and writing about matters of spirituality and, next thing you know, here I am, in charge of the education of several hundred little souls. Scary, isn't it?
It was only recently that I reflected on how my life has prepared me for my new gig. As I started seeing how the pieces fit together so neatly, I began to feel overwhelmed with gratitude and awe at God's generosity. He has a plan for me; a plan to bring others to Him. Me. Little Laura down in Texas. God chose me. Wow.
But the thing is, God didn't just choose me. He chooses ALL of us. Of course, He doesn't lead us all down the same path. That would be boring. And weird. Really weird. No. He has a different plan for each of us if we're willing to be open to Him.
For years, I didn't know what I wanted to be "when I grew up." Never mind the fact that I was married and the mother of three children. I still felt like there was something else I was called to do but I couldn't see what it was. But God gave me just enough light for my path so that I could see the next step. And slowly, I next-stepped my way to where I am now. Who knows if this is the end of God's path for me? But it's where He wants me right now. And that's enough for me.

163P - The influence of 2nd and 3rd generation TKI in EGFR mt+ and ALK+ patients on OS and PFS: Results of the NOWEL network (ID 402)
12:30 - 13:00 | Author(s): S. Sackmann
- Abstract
- Slides
EGFR TKI treatment is standard of care in patients with metastasized NSCLC carrying an activating EGFR mutation. Targeted therapies achieve a higher ORR, OS, PFS and a better quality of life than chemotherapy in mt+ patients. With the advent of 2[nd] and 3[rd] generation TKÍs effective in 1[st] generation TKI resistant tumors, we wanted to study the impact of these drugs on the outcome of patients in a real life setting in 3 lung cancer centers.
1477 patients from three cancer centers diagnosed with non-squamous cell NSCLC stage IV (UICC 7) were examined. Methods for the mutation testing was performed according to the German Oncopedia guidelines using either Sanger Sequencing or COBAS® or Next Generation Sequencing (hybrid capture NGS, New Oncology Cologne).
945/1477 (64%) consecutive patients with non-squamous cell NSCLC from three cancer centers were studied for the presence of tumor mutations, especially for EGFR and ALK mutations. The EGFR mutation rate was 16% (149/912), and the ALK-translocation rate 4% (26/700). Median OS in EGFR mt+ patients was 23 months (n = 154) compared to 11 months (n = 763) in patients with EGFR WT (p < 0.001). Median OS in EGFR mt+ patients depending on the center was 23 (n = 102) vs. 28 (n = 38) vs. 16 (n = 14) months respectively (center 1 vs. center 2 vs. center 3). Median OS in ALK mt+ patients was 24 months (n = 19) in center 1, 11 months (n = 5) in center 2 and in center 3 median OS was not reached (p < 0.025). The use of 3[rd] generation TKI Osimertinib lead to a significantly higher OS (n = 21, median OS 55 months) than the use of only 1[st] and 2[nd] generation TKI (n = 118, median OS 22 months, p < 0.001). The hazard ratio HR for patients treated without Osimertinib was 2.77 [95% CI 1.454–5.305] (p < 0.002). Similarly, use of 2[nd] and 3[rd] generation ALKi impacted significantly on median OS: Crizotinib alone (n = 7), 17 months, Crizotinib followed by Ceritinib and/or Brigatinib/Alectinib (n = 13) median OS was not reached and 3 months for other therapies (n = 6) (p < 0.000).
Small differences in OS were observed, depending on the treatment centers, but the use of multiple EGFR and ALK-I impacted highly significantly on the outcome of patients with EGFR and ALK-alterations in a real life setting.

Tombola, craft making, cake icing, and a produce and plant stall provides a wealth of activities for both young and old at the Big Picnic. Music from Radio Respect, started by staff member Chris, keeps everyone in high spirits throughout the day, with hits like Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" causing people to get up and have a dance. Contrary to last year, the sun has come out for everyone to enjoy, and a children's circus next door creates a steady flow of passers-by. "Everyone is so friendly" On the tombola stall I meet 27-year-old Sophie, who has been supported by us for three years. She tells me how important House 48, the local United Response drop-in centre, has been for her: "I had no friends before, and everyone there is so friendly." Before going to the centre, she explains how she used to sit indoors. "Now it has given me something to do. I've started getting on the bus too, which I'd never done before." Person-centred support Working with Sophie on the busy tombola stall is 28-year-old Maisie. The two both share the same support worker. "It's been life-changing, I'd never had that constant support before," says Maisie, who has been supported by us for two years and lives with bipolar disorder. "I wish I'd known about United Response sooner as it could've saved me a lot of time in hospital." She stresses the benefits she has felt through the person-centred support: "it allowed me to feel human again, rather than clinical or alien." At around midday the local mayor Pat Dillon arrives to greet everyone, and a lunch of sandwiches and pasta is served. A helping hand Grabbing a bite to eat are good friends Richard and John, who met through House 48. Richard has been supported by us for two years, and enjoys socialising at the camera club. "There are really nice people there," says Richard, "John helped me with my housing tenancy when it wasn't renewed. It was a really stressful time." John, who has been supported by us for eight years, has now taken a peer support course so that he can help other service users. He runs a peer-to-peer support group every other Wednesday. Broadening horizons The strong presence of these close relations becomes apparent throughout the day. Everyone has been involved with the planning of the event. Senior Area Manager Mary Doran expresses the value of this: "it broadens their horizons and strengthens the link with the wider community." With a lot of the stalls being organised and run by service users, it is clear that days like this are an important step on the path to recovery. A big thank you to the Bognor Regis team who managed to raise £120 on the day! Find out how we support people in the southern area Find out how we support people with mental health needs

Acid 3 and the future of memory leaks
John Resig has a couple of interesting posts on Acid 3 and memory leaks.
Firstly, with Acid 3 hopefully around the corner (but not yet ready!), John takes a look at the JavaScript side of the equation:
- Array Elisions – Making sure that stuff like
[,,]doesn't have a length and
[0,,1]has a length of 3.
- Array Methods – Doing an unshift with multiple arguments
.unshift(0, 1, 2), joining with an undefined argument
- Number Conversion – Banging against
.toExponential(), and
.toPrecision()– especially with decimals and negative numbers.
- String Operations – Negative indicies in substr
.substr(-7, 3), character access by index
"foo"[1](part of the ECMAScript 4 spec).
- Date – Making sure that certain method calls result in NaN results (like
d.setMilliseconds(), with no arguments) and also enforcing +1900 year offsets.
- Unicode in Identifiers – You can't use escaped Unicode in identifiers, for example:
eval("test.i\\u002b= 1;");(that should throw an exception).
- Regular Expressions –
/[]/matches an empty set,
/[])]/should throw an exception, backreferences to non-existent captures, and negative lookaheads
/(?!test)(test).exec("test test").
- Enumeration – Make sure that object properties are enumerated in the correct order, make sure that you're able to enumerate properties of certain names (toString, hasOwnProperty, etc.).
- Function Constructors – The user should be able to set custom constructors on the
.constructorshould not be enumerable, and
.prototype.constructorshould be deletable.
- Function Expressions –
(function test(){ ... })();You should be able to call the function by name, within the function itself, you can't directly overwrite the function name (only with a function-scoped variable), and 'test' isn't leaked into the parent scope.
- Exception Scope – Variables within the
catch(){}should interact with the catch arguments primarily, followed by variables in an outer scope.
- Assignment Expressions –
s = a.length = "123";– a.length has a return value of 123 (the number) which is assigned to 's', rather than the correct result of the string "123".
- Encoding –
encodeURIComponent()must gracefully handle null bytes.
John then goes on to ask Will Memory Leaks Matter in 2009? where he paints an optimistic picture of the browser space in the future. We can only hope!
UPDATE: Ian has posted about Acid3.

If you have been arrested or accused of a theft you need a qualified and experienced lawyer who handles theft cases. In Texas a theft case can range from a minor misdemeanor up to a first degree felony. A first degree felony can carry up to 99 years in prison. A criminal conviction of any kind can have lasting affects on a person's life. This is why I recommend contacting a local attorney as soon as possible.
Why Hire a Local Criminal Attorney
A local theft attorney should be familiar with the district attorney and the process used to handle criminal cases. A local attorney will also be familiar with the court system in Smith County and what types of agreement a judge may accept.
Smith County Criminal Case Process
After you have been arrested for a theft or any other criminal action contact me for a in person meeting. In the meeting I gather as many facts possible about your case to determine what type of case the prosecution has. My other goal in our first meeting is to fully explain the criminal process to you so you will know all of your options regarding your case. Finally I will get a good understanding of what exactly your goals and expectations of your case.
After discussing the case fully with my client I will then request the evidence from the prosecution to review. After the evidence has been reviewed a decision regarding a trial or a plea agreement can be made.
Smith County Jury Trial vs. Trial by Judge
In a Smith County criminal case a defendant has the opportunity to either have a trial in front of a judge or a jury. In a trial by judge the prosecution and defense will have a chance to present their arguments and evidence regarding the criminal case. After this the judge will make a decision regarding the guilt or innocence of an accused person. In a jury trial the judge is still present but the arguments and evidence will be presented to a jury for them to make decisions regarding the guilt or innocence verdict. Depending on the specific circumstances in your case will determine if your case is more suited for a jury trial or a trial by judge. If you have been arrested consult with an experienced theft attorney

Things that can make hormone treatment easier to handle…
Strategies for sleeping
You'll probably find that you have trouble getting to sleep at the best of times during all this cancer lark (unless it's the 2 weeks after radiation treatment fallout!) let alone waking up drenched or spending the night thrashing around trying to get the temperature right. Wearing light cotton PJs and throwing the covers on and off several times a night seems to be the way through. Also having a cool flannel near the bed in summer can help you to mop up the sweat and cool down at the same time.
Natural fabrics and layers
Sweating like a pig in public is not pleasant especially when it comes randomly out of the blue several times a day. Try to wear light layers of natural fabrics, that way you can breathe, strip off a bit if/when need be and not have big sweaty 'magic spots' under your arms/on your back.
Talking with your loved ones
Think PMT without the PM – menopause can cause you to put the T in Tension! Feeling up one minute and down the next, or having feelings of anxiety, depression or agitation (just like PMT) can all be down to this lack of raging hormones believe it or not. Make sure that everyone around you knows your not just being a super-bitch for the sake of it (unless of course you are!) and try to be aware of what is going on for you – mindfulness is really the key to mastering this.
Dealing with 'headaches'
An absence of sex hormones (oestrogen/progesterone) can unsurprisingly lead to an absence of sexual desire. If you're feeling less than interested in frisky business it can cause problems down the track, especially if you're in a relationship. If you can find a way to talk about it to someone (best of all your partner in crime, but a trusted friend if not) you're on the road to stopping it becoming a bigger mental drain for you than it may be already. This is a really hard one, so go easy on yourself and try not to add guilt to your already rather large emotional load.

Competition: Premier League – Newcastle United vs. Tottenham Hotspur
Venue: St James' Park – Sunday, May 15 – 15:00 BST (10:00 ET)
Match Odds: Newcastle 16/5 – Draw 11/4 – Tottenham 4/5
Match Preview
Newcastle United welcome Tottenham Hotspur to St James' Park on the final day of the Premier League season, a campaign which could have offered more for both of these sides, who find themselves at either end of the table.
The home supporters will be bitterly disappointed to have been relegated in midweek but will need to be behind their side for the last time in the Premier League for at least a season. They come into this one off the back of their 0-0 draw with fellow relegated side Aston Villa.
Newcastle have nothing to play for here but pride. They need to go out with a strong performance and are capable of doing so, having not lost in their last five. Form has been good but it has come a little too late.
This could be Rafa Benitez's last game in charge of the club. He has made a positive impact but couldn't quite steer Newcastle to safety. If the club can tempt him into staying on as manager they stand a great chance of coming straight back up next season.Embed from Getty Images
Tottenham come into this one off the back of their 2-1 home loss to Southampton, a game they were winning, which ended an eight-game unbeaten run and followed the disappointment of officially missing out on the league title a week earlier at Chelsea.
Mauricio Pochettino's side need to avoid defeat here to secure a second place finish ahead of rivals Arsenal. Although Spurs have missed out on the title, it has been a very impressive season and there is plenty to be excited about for the Lilywhites.
Tottenham need to go out with a win here and look forward to next season. They have a lot to look forward to and can mount another challenge for the title next campaign if they play with the same intensity from start to finish.Embed from Getty Images
Newcastle actually beat Spurs at White Hart Lane in the reverse fixture, coming from behind to win 2-1 thanks to a 90th minute Ayoze Perez goal. However, Spurs have only lost one of their last five trips to Newcastle and will be confident of sealing at least a point.
Team News
Newcastle's injury woes have overshadowed a gruelling campaign. Tim Krul, Massadio Haidara, Curtis Good, Rob Elliot and Fabricio Coloccini all remain injured as Rafa Benitez prepares to name the club's final Premier League lineup for at least a season.
Tottenham have just one injury concern as Nabil Bentaleb remains out. Both Mousa Dembele and Dele Alli are suspended and won't feature. Ryan Mason is expected to partner Eric Dier in midfield again, while Heung Min-Son will hope to keep his place ahead of Nacer Chadli in behind Harry Kane.
Key Points
Newcastle's last five: W/D/D/W/D
Tottenham's last five: W/W/D/D/L
Key Stat: Tottenham are unbeaten in 16 of their last 17 away matches in the Premier League.
Key Player: Harry Kane – The Englishman has had a great season and will be battling with fellow countryman Jamie Vardy, as well as Sergio Aguero on the final day for the golden boot. Kane has 25 goals for the season and is ahead of Vardy by one.
Score Prediction
Newcastle 1-2 Tottenham Hotspur – Spurs to sign off with a win and give Newcastle United fans an all too familiar feeling with another loss this season. Both have endured contrasting seasons and the gulf in class is likely to be apparent here.

Next, I want to just add that I've tried both the version of Compiz that's currently in the repo and that I also tried the Sam Spilsbury's PPA. After having configured my preferences in the CompizConfig Settings Manager (CCSM), I attempted to activate Compiz from the terminal to test out my settings.
Code: Select all
~$ compiz --replace ccp &
My (humble) questions (please don't bite my head off for asking these):
1) Does anyone else here have had better luck in getting Compiz to work with Mint 15 XFCE?
2) Should I even bother (not giving up hope) or is this some type of sign that Compiz is in fact a "dead" project?

May is Older Americans Month, and in recognition of this year's theme, Engage At Every Age, Americans are growing older than ever before. What's their secret? Possibly telomeres.
What we learned from astronauts
Telomeres — the protective endcaps of our chromosomes, which shorten over time as we age — appear to lengthen in space, a NASA study reveals.
Researchers compared a number of psychological and physiological factors affecting identical twin astronauts, one of whom spent a year in orbit aboard the International Space Station while his brother remained on Earth as a control. Testing confirmed that the off-planet brother returned to Earth with significantly longer telomeres.
While his telomeres shortened again after just a few days back on Earth, it begs the question: is living aboard a spacecraft the ultimate anti-aging tonic?
Ripe for disruption
It's not just space that affects longevity; there's a lot of health disruption happening right here at home. We may not be able to lengthen our telomeres (yet) but healthcare innovation has just taken a quantum leap forward: Amazon hired a geriatrician.
Isn't that a bit odd? What does Amazon know that other businesses don't?
According to MedCity News, "Healthcare — especially for seniors — is at its breaking point and is ripe for disruption. The old ways of doing things have not been working for patients or providers. That's why the geriatricians who have been on the front lines are actually some of the most innovative minds who could shift the paradigm."
Dementia without stigma
We're also starting to remove the ignominy of memory loss. The inaugural "Dementia Village", based on the pioneering Netherlands model, opened last month in Chula Vista, California. An adult day care center, known as Town Square, is a simulated town designed for reminiscent therapy, featuring everything from a 1959 car to a working diner and black-and-white movie theater.
While senior residences have seen the benefit of yesteryear-themed design, what's intriguing about this dementia village is that it's staffed with seniors, via a national home care franchise. They hope to scale the concept to 100 locations throughout the U.S.
Like Amazon hiring a geriatrician, having seniors support seniors makes perfect sense. Just as Japan is gearing up to care for its burgeoning number of older adults with Alzheimer's through the concept of "dementia towns", where residents take responsibility for seniors who need assistance rather than leaving this to immediate family or the medical establishment, dementia villages create a welcoming, immersive experience for elders who need memory care. And it's stigma-free — inviting, even. The whole environment sounds quite appealing for any nostalgia buff!
For love of the game
For some seniors, working at what they love, whether it involves caring for their cohorts or ushering at a beloved ballgame, keeps those telomeres and the person they pilot in fighting trim to the very end.
That was the ticket for Phil Coyne, a Pittsburgh Pirates fan who retired in April just a few weeks prior to his 100th birthday after — wait for it — 81 years on the job, besting Elena Griffing's 71-year record (of course, Ms. Griffing is almost a decade younger than Coyne, so she may catch up!)
Whatever their game, when elders love life, and when industry giants such as Amazon and the creators of Town Square continue to focus on the benefits of making senior wellness a priority, life for your reverse mortgage clients and prospects promises to be better than ever. Enjoy honoring your clients this May!

An efficient rehearsal is dependent upon a stimulating, interesting, and well-planned rehearsal with maximum use of rehearsal time. Use of rehearsal time and pacing are important factors in producing a successful rehearsal. Time management includes starting and ending the rehearsal at the appointed times. Use every second of the rehearsal time to achieve rehearsal goals.
Long-range goals and individual rehearsal objectives are an important part of making the most of the rehearsal time. If we don't know where we want to go in rehearsal, valuable time will be lost and less will be accomplished.
Make connections between what is known and what is to be learned whenever possible. Where are the musicians in their musical, physical, cognitive, and emotional development? What is the attention span of a specific age group? What are their language and music reading abilities? What do they need to learn, experience, or review in the next rehearsal? What activities are most suitable for teaching a musical selection, skill, or concept? Answers to these questions provide the backbone of the rehearsal plan.
Planning and providing references to previously learned musical concepts or skills saves rehearsal time. Develop objectives that are sequential and become building blocks from one rehearsal to another. Have expectations in place for each rehearsal. Expectations and procedures will need to be practiced and reviewed while children are becoming accustomed to the routines of the rehearsal. Always be consistent throughout all rehearsals as far as expectations and procedures.
Develop and write out a teaching plan for each musical selection to be rehearsed. Subdivide the teaching plan into several segments based on the amount of time available to rehearse.
Post an agenda or roadmap with objectives and rehearsal activities. We are more successful when we have goals and have an outline for learning and rehearsal activities. This enhances learning and facilitates maximum use of rehearsal time.
There are times when flexibility during the rehearsal is needed. Have a plan for adapting and adding activities when the unexpected happens.
Conduct a rehearsal evaluation. Use written notes for instant notation as well as video/audio taping, etc. Refer to these notes and tapings to assess and generate the next rehearsal's plan. Involve the musicians in the assessment of their learning and performance. As soon as possible after the rehearsal is concluded, take time to reflect on all components of the rehearsal.

TreeHugger takes a critical look at net-zero home in the Salt Lake City suburb of Herriman that's been all over the place this week. A collaborative effort between production builder Garbett Homes and home automation company Vivint, Zero Home is an attractive, affordable, innovative, and all-around super-impressive abode that aims to shake things up in the low-key green building scene in Utah as the country's first certified net-zero climate 5 smart home to achieve a zero HERS rating. But is it hands-down the most energy-efficient home in all the land as some news outlets have been rather irresponsibly hailing it? As Lloyd Alter points out, probably not considering that it's located in the middle of nowhere (the Walkscore is 9) and boasts considerable square footage (4,300-square-feet).
Curbed eyes Hawk House, a "minimalist cabana retreat" that's sure to "give 'Walden' fans the vapors." Nestled away amongst the towering redwoods of the Central California coast, this off the grid wooden hut topped with a native wildflower-strewn green roof was designed by Alex Wyndham and built by John Grill.
Boston Magazines comes bearing good news for kitchen scrap-hoarding residents in Beantown: the city has officially launched its first-ever public composting program. While not a curbside affair, the three-month pilot will include organic waste drop-off locations at three of the city's farmers markets. Proclaimed Mayor Thomas Menino in a press release: "Residents have made it clear that they support a healthier, cleaner Boston that supports local agriculture, healthy food and waste reduction. This pilot will show residents how separating food scraps from trash is better for the environment and our bottom-line."
Apartment Therapy wrangles up five mosquito-repelling outdoor candles. Ahhhh ... the sweet smell of citronella.
The Los Angeles Times shares some pointers on how to keep potted cacti plants "happy, hands unhurt."
Gawker alerts us to two lighthouses currently up for auction by the United States Government: Saybrook Breakwater in Connecticut and the historic Graves Island Lighthouse in Massachusetts. Professional lighthouse-keeping experience is not required as the Coast Guard maintains the actual navigational lamps. However, as one commenter points out, some upkeep is required: "I mean you have to keep away the smugglers pretending to be ghosts to scare away locals, you have to sacrifice a woman to the sea every year to stave off the wrath of Poseidon, plus you need a boat and those are always money pits."
Grist starts peddling tent porn with a look at a handful of "gorgeous modern tents for urban adventurers." Writes Lori Rotenberk: "Tents, and an evolving notion of what it means to "camp out," have of late spawned a fresh design movement aimed at reconnecting us to the outdoors, even in the din of a city. The designs are often beautiful, otherworldly, and thoughtful: Pup tents are giving way to space pods and lunar landers suspended from the trees. Once a canvas tent, tents become a canvas."
EcoBuilding Pulse welcomes a net-zero energy panelized kit home concept with a rather regrettable name to the market: Smarthomze.
Chicago Magazine attempts to understand why the Ben Rose House, a boxy, glass-and-wood stunner in Highland Park otherwise known as "Cameron's house from 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off,'" has such a hard time selling (it's back on the market again after a four-year hiatus for a reduced price of $1.5 million). For starters, the main home (separate from the cantilevered pavilion/garage that played a key role in one of the cringiest moments of 1980s cinema) is in need of some serious rehabbing. Secondly, the home's status as a bona fide looky-loo magnet may scare some potential buyers off.

A speedrun is normally something you associate with a video game, when a player tries to get through a game as fast as is humanly (or sometimes inhumanly) possible.
Here, though, we see a movie speedrun. An animated whirlwind tour of Star Wars: Episode IV.
Funny how good the movie is even when you're not neck-deep in tired old quotes.

If you are seeing duplicate workouts, that means something has gone wrong during the syncing from TritonWear Live. This was most likely caused by a poor internet connection. In that situation, the app tried syncing the workout, but never received a confirmation from the cloud once the sync was complete. Later, the app attempted the sync again — creating multiple workouts for an individual swimmer.
In the event a duplicate workout was created, if you are a coach you can delete the workout on TritonWear Insights.

Do you ever find yourself stuck in a beauty rut? Using the same products over and over again? My rut got shaken up with products from Deciem*, The abnormal beauty company*, leaving me thinking, how have I ever lived without them?
"We're a humble and happy umbrella of good beauty brands. We're founded on the principle of doing everything others don't do and we are changing the world of beauty based on this principle."
Priding themselves with being different and working with a range of new brands, their concentration on the chemistry of beauty products flow through from the packaging of little glass bottles and through the website with geometric shapes. It's hard to describe, but go and have a look here and you'll see what I mean. You'll be having flashbacks of test tubes and the periodic table from your chemistry classes.
Now on to the products which is something worth sharing with you...
Sleep isn't one of my strongest skills and with working late at a bar, my dark circles under my tired puffy eyes are currently at their worst. I usually just pack on make up and deal with it, but that left me with dry under eyes and always running low of concealer. Bring in Hylamide SubQ Eyes* serum!
Honestly, it changes everything. I never usually buy any products for tired eyes as I'm quite skeptical of their promises, yet, this one does what it says on the tin (box). It brightens, hydrates, de-puffs and I've noticed that my dark circles are no longer, that dark. They haven't vanished, but the deep purple has almost turned into a lilac.
It is a thick formula that has one of those dropper to pick up the product which reminds me of being back at chemistry class, and a little goes a long way. It slightly tingles for a few seconds and then as I let it dry, my first words as I looked in the mirror was "oh wow!"
As a little does go long way, I wouldn't mind splurging on this "wow" product. And as freshers week is soon to begin again, I think my hungover self will be reaching for it more and more.
Along with the SubQ product, I have been testing out the Booster C25* serum which boasts to brighten the skin, minimise the appearance of fine lines and uneven skin tone. It can be also used as a primer, but I haven't let go of my everyday primer yet. The formula feels like an oil and the applicator is the drop stick (is that what it's called?) again but this time, I find it a bit more tricky to apply as the oil is runny. It makes my skin feel really soft though but would I spend my cash on it? Probably not as I haven't noticed much changes in my skin so far. However, they do have LOADS of skin care serums and oils that might suit me more. I was actually a little overwhelmed at how much they offer depending on your skin type.
However, the HAND Chemistry Retin Oil* is definitely something I have at the top of my list. My skin on my legs is so sensitive and dry as most lotions irritate but the oil soaks in quickly and locks in moisture without any itching or rash outbreaks, yay! Another surprising product was the HIF Cleansing Conditioner.* Tailored for curly hair, it is almost like a 2-in1 product which is something I never go to but this product is describes as "professional cleaning for hair" and HIF (Hair Is Fabric). It cleanses the hair while with oils and rock extracts leaves it conditioned and tames the frizz. HIF has hair cleansers for all hair types to suits your needs so do have a gander.
I'd say the price range is middle of the road, maybe not student budget but the Retin Oil and eye serum is definitely something I would save my pennies for. Also, check out their abnormal website and see their mahoosive range of products they have to offer for yourself.

Christian Dell
1893 - 1974 (Germany)
Christian Dell spent the majority of his life training as a silversmith in various institutions, before helping define the tough and effective aesthetic of the Bauhaus school. In that design school's formative years he acted as the foreman of the metal workshop and was responsible for teaching a new generation his functional and reductive approach. The Kaiser Idell range is Dell's most well-regarded contribution, but he worked tirelessly on lamps, jewellery and metal sculpture, combining his practical approach with artistic sensibilities. Later in his career Dell also did pioneering work with early plastic technology.

Texas High School Rules Force Transgender Male Wrestler To Compete In Girl's League
In Texas, high school athletics is governed by the University Interscholastic League (UIL). Rules of the UIL require student-athletes to compete as the gender listed on their birth certificate. Another rule specifically prohibits boys from wrestling girls. AP reported this week on Mack Beggs, a transgender high schooler who is transitioning from female to male who, under these rules, is required to compete as a female. Beggs won the high school regional wrestling competition after her opponent forfeited rather than wrestle Beggs. Beggs is taking testosterone as part of her transitioning. Earlier this month, the parent of another wrestler filed a lawsuit against the UIL seeking to have Beggs disqualified for using steroids, saying that allowing Beggs to wrestle girls creates a risk of bodily harm. The Texas Education Code allows steroid use when administered by a medical practitioner for a valid medical purpose.

Admission is charged at the principal Chimney Rock Access, though the nearby Rumbling Bald Climbing Access is admission-free and offers one of the park's six trails. Visiting Chimney Rock Access offers opportunities for picnicking and hiking on trails that range from child-friendly nature explorations to moderately strenuous treks to the top of Chimney Rock Mountain and to the edge of Hickory Nut Falls. Concessions and gift shops are available. The Rocky Broad River is a destination for trout anglers. Other access areas into the park—now encompassing more than 5,700 acres—are to be developed.

The motto for this week is courtesy of Elvis Presley – When things go wrong, don't go with them! Isn't that a trap we so often fall into? Someone cuts you off in traffic, you break your favourite pair of shoes, the kids mess Nutella on their uniform five minutes before you're out the door. Any and all of these can easily put a damper in your day . It's so common that we have an idiom for it. But what if, just maybe, you don't have to accept that. You could vent, shrug, huff and simply move on. It doesn't need to swell and grow and take over your day, week, month. It can simply be a clap of thunder in an otherwise sunny day!
Bleh – sounds as easy as pie when the reality it, for most people (me included) it's not. My challenge for this week is to see how many of these thunderstorms I can put a halt to after a single thunderclap. I'll let you know how it goes 🙂
- One of my favourite things I love about having moved to Dubai and quit the 9 – 5 rat race is how much time I have now to spend with my Husband. As corny as it sounds, we've always been best friends at the heart of everything and they way our lives were heading, we would fill our lives so many obligations that time with just the two of us became less and less. Now that we both have infinitely more flexible schedules, we get to spend a lot more one on one time and I'm loving every minute of it!
- I survived week 2 of Boot Camp! Maybe one day soon, when this is a habit, I'll stop raving about it but at the moment I'm pretty proud of myself. I've also pretty much managed to stick to the eating plan, the only exception being that glass of wine I could not resist!
- I got the cutest love letter from Joshua this week! He proclaimed his love and gushed about me being the best mommy ever! #bestillmybeatingheart
- I launched my first real Giveaway on the blog (hint hint, please enter because I'm terrified it's a flop)! You can win an awesome book we discovered called I Spy Dubai which is all about the birds and bugs in Dubai.
- I am now the proud owner of a return trip ticket to Cape Town in March! A mommy only 3 day getaway to the stunning Western Cape Winelands. I will be getting no sleep as I'm rushing in and out to attend a friend's wedding. We've been friends since High School so this is a biggie for me.
