The techniques of refractive surgery predate the history of LASIK surgery, having existed for nearly 50 years, although they are in less common practice than LASIK is today.
The Role of Keratomileusis in the (Pre-)History of LASIK Surgery
Keratomileusis is the term given to any surgical procedure used to improve the function and shape of the cornea. LASIK is a form of laser vision correction, a type of keratomileusis.
The process of keratomileusis was first developed in the 1950s, by a Spanish ophthalmologist named Jose Barraquer. He began his medical career in his home nation, but moved to Bogota, Colombia, in 1953. The medical facility he founded in Bogota, the Barraquer Institute of Technology, served as his think tank and laboratory.
There, he not only developed keratomileusis but also invented new surgical instruments to properly perform this technique: the cryolathe and microkeratome, the latter of which is still used in LASIK today.
The Inception of LASIK
In 1983, the physicist Rangaswamy Srinivasan discovered that the ultraviolet-light-based excimer laser could be applied in etching or drilling organic solids, including human tissue, without causing thermal damage to the surrounding area.
Six years later, the patent for the process of Laser Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis (LASIK) was issued. The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) did not officially approve this procedure until 1999, but it became popular almost immediately after the patent was released. LASIK offered the almost-immediate correction of vision difficulties caused by myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism, with fewer side effects than other types of refractive surgery, and quickly eclipsed the prominence of other procedures.
LASIK Correction of Eye Problems Today
As of June 2009, more than 28 million LASIK procedures have been performed in the United States and around the world.
The procedure remains the subject of some debate and controversy. Throughout the 2000s, the FDA and the British National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) have conducted studies and hearings regarding the overall safety of LASIK, and the occurrences of infection or other side effects in patients who had gone through the surgical process.
In response to these incidences of infection and irritation, the American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) released strict guidelines regarding the manner in which the procedure can be advertised by refractive surgeons and their practices. The risks of LASIK eye surgery must be included in any such advertisements.

attractive, but I find her skin tone rather 'dark'. I prefer white women with more pale, fair skin tone.

Having access to credit does not have to be regarded as something negative. While many people do occasionally struggle to repay debts, this isn't always the case. With the amendment of the National Credit Act
With over 22 million credit-active consumers in South Africa, the credit industry is large and continually growing. As a measure of protecting consumers and also ensuring fair credit practices, the National Credit Act was put into place.

When the National Credit Act was promulgated in 2007, it gave birth to the profession of debt counselling. Debt counselling essentially has the wellbeing of the consumer at heart. To qualify for debt counselling, you need to be over-indebted as defined by the National Credit Act (NCA).
According to this Act, consumers who are struggling to repay multiple debts have recourse in the form of debt counselling services.

I don't remember where I read it… but I did come across it once or twice.
Having pets can be therapeutic to your health and may even increase our lifespan.
Yep. Owning a pet can be so good for us.
Pets help us feel better as they help us deal with stress.
Petting animals can have many benefits, including for example, lowering our blood pressure, hence contributing to our overall health.
Well, I have to agree that my darling cat has brought me lots of joy and calm/relaxation moments that I would not trade for the world. His playfulness and relaxing positions bring a smile to my face every time, even when I am feeling anxious or uptight.
When I have been in a sad mood, or overly stressed with work/school/decisions/life, I have picked up my kitty, whom we named Tiger but seldom call him that, and while holding him tight and stroking him, I can feel most of my worries/sadness/stress just simply melt away.
I would gladly recommend to anyone wanting to experience some stress relief as well to go pet an animal.
Whether it's a dog or a cat.
It doesn't matter.
Spend time with a furry one and see how good they can make us feel 🙂

According to the weather man there has been low tropical that has been forming south of Indonesia and they expect that the two cyclones will make landfall in both areas probably this week.
Current cyclones which have hit the area are able to give a clue as to what to expect from the cyclone and it is not pretty. The bureau has stated that West Pilbara will be the one which will hit hardest with the cycle.
By Thursday the second cyclone is expected to make landfall as low tropical of Papua New Guinea.
If the news sources are indeed truth, then the two cyclones are expected to be the second largest cyclones to ever make landfall at the country's east coast.
That said it is also good to note that an Insurance group in Australia is currently facing 3,500 claims which usually end up totaling up to A$90 million, that is approximately $70 million although the country's agricultural as well as mining sector have suffered significant damage is the past. crimes storm to rock the

[I will, probably this weekend, rewrite this. That I love Friedlander and Evans will not change, I will try to make it more coherent.]
Seeing the Lee Friedlander show at SFMOMA had me thinking about Walker Evans. I love many photographers: Weston, Abbott, Lang, Adams, Smith, Atget, Frank, the Bechers and Gibson for a short list. However the first photographer I wanted to absorb was Walker Evans.
I have known Friedlander's work since the early '70's; He like Evans struck a deep cord in me, but even deeper than Evans.
So why did seeing Friedlander bring Walker Evans to mind? First, there was picture Evans in a hospital bed taken by Friedlander; second, because I believe Friedlander grew out of Evans. Friedlander did not try to become a second Evans but rather pulled, squeezed and twisted, and stretched as you would clay what he seen in Evans. When you look at Friedlander's work you sense that after absorbing Evan's work his courage and creativity was not willing to let him become an Evans Junior but rather to grow from this fertile ground into something new and beautiful.
The humor in Friedlander's photography is extensive and found in almost all groupings; self-portraits, reflections, signs, landscapes and urban-scapes. The nudes are the only grouping I do not remember seeing humor; even the portraits of working people some gentle humor can be seen in the close-ups of telemarketers. These portraits of working people were my biggest surprised; I had not realized he had done this work.
However what most impressed me was his ability to create multiple images in a single photograph using reflections or TVs and windows or various objects slashing across the picture breaking the picture into several images: a sign post, a door frame covering a man's face and a woman's leg and the reflection of a man out of the door frame. Friedlander does not break the rules of compositions but invents new rules; he is a Charlie Parker/John Coltrane of photography.
The highlight was seeing his prints; not images in a book but actual prints. Lately I have been printing 11×14, 16×20 and 20×26, seeing the beautiful rich prints of Friedlander reminded me how much more beautiful a silver 8×10 print is than digital prints. The glass covering the prints though drove me crazy; I wanted to take the prints off the wall to see past the glare into the shadow detail.
It is thrilling to see the prints of great photographers.
I had forgotten for years about the images of rooms many with TVs sets. I had forgotten them, but had not lost their impact, and with this show the memory of them came back. Recently, I saw a photograph by a friend of a radiator that looked like knuckles. It was a good shot. Looking at the image an idea I had 30 years ago after seeing Friedlander's rooms that you should be able to find good images in a single room. What I have been doing in Brooklyn is a scaled up version of this idea; photographing the same Brooklyn streets over and over in different lighting and weather conditions.
The difficulty for me is how to absorb Friedlander and not become a Friedlander clone. He has done so much so well. It is difficult to know where to go, what to do; how to accept what he has done but grow in new directions.
Two other shows at SFMOMA
An-My Le: Small Wars and Gabriele Basilio: From San Francisco
I was not impressed with Basilio images; I found them boring and the printing sloppy; the frames were horrible casting a shadow on the top of the images. I have seen much more interesting urban landscapes of San Francisco done as paintings and photographs: Linda Grebmeier, or Christine Hanlon.
An-My Le: Small Wars
I liked Le's Small Wars especially the Vietnam War Re-enactments. Forty years ago Chris Howard and I covered for the NY Times Long Island Section people who RV'ed and people who square danced; many people do both. While I was looking at her images I was remembered these groups.The participants of the re-enactments reminded of the square dancing RV-ers.

If you follow the news daily, or even occasionally, you would have surely heard about the foreign exchange rate. They're every day's hot discussion topic. And while financial experts might argue about the finer details of a country's exchange rate, everyone agrees on one important point.
Foreign exchange rates matter. They matter for us, personally. They matter for a country's economy as a whole. On a micro level, foreign exchange rates affect all of us who travel to other countries as it impacts our buying power. And, although many of us might not be aware of it, they impact us within the country as well as the prices of commodities and the fluctuations in foreign exchange rates are interlinked. On a macro level, exchange rates are even more crucial as they directly affect the country's import-export ratio and depend on the country's sociopolitical situation.
But what exactly is an exchange rate? Let's get that out of the way before we move on to address how it is set. To put it simply, an exchange rate is the price of a currency when compared with that of another currency. An important thing to remember here is that the price of a currency cannot be determined alone. It's relative. It is always measured with respect to another currency. So the dollar's exchange rate would be measured against the pound or the yen.
What determines an exchange rate?
The thing to know about exchange rates is that they're free-floating. This means that the market forces determine the exchange rate rather than the state. But what are some of the factors involved in it, you might ask. Don't worry. Here are some of the most important ones:
1. Inflation
Inflation can be simply described as a continuous increase in the price of goods and services in the country. The products we buy now were cheaper when our parents bought them. What went wrong then? Nothing in particular. It's inflation and it happens all the time. What's important for the exchange rate is the rate of inflation. The country with lower inflation rate will generally have higher exchange rate because the price of the currency of a country depends upon the purchasing power of its citizens.
2. Interest rates
Interest generally serves as the profit on an investment. If you're investing in Singapore, the higher its interest rates, the more your profit would be. And the country with high interest rates attracts more foreign investment and capital driving up its exchange rates.
3. Debt
The general perception about the public debt is that debt is bad. While that might not always be true, large public debts do drive investors away because the inflation rates are higher. And we already know what happens to the exchange rate when inflation rates go up.
4. Sociopolitical conditions
When the UK received a shock after the results of the Brexit election, the pound's exchange rates took a nosedive. The same thing happened with the dollar after Trump was elected. Why is that the case? Instability is always bad for investment. This is why investors seek out countries with stable sociopolitical conditions. This is why political turmoil in countries like Venezuela has sent their currency's price spiraling downward. A stable country's currency generally has a relatively higher exchange rate.

Dear Families,
What a splendid summer in so many ways. One of my loveliest memories is a weekend I spent in a small town in Rhode Island. As I looked out the window one morning I saw a band of merry children who looked to be from 2-12 years of age running around with one balloon, one bike, one ball and gales of laughter as they traversed the boundaries of the neighborhood. It turned out it was one of the neighbor's birthdays. I loved watching the Norman Rockwell-esque moment of normalcy with no electronic apparatus , no bells and whistles and just good old fashioned fun. In this complicated world we live in, it really made me happy. As educators we know that play is so important for child development. It strengthens signals in the brain where executive functioning lies: organization, focus and planning among other skills. It sparks the part of the brain where thinking and language lie and it helps social interaction so children actually know how to interact with one another. Most importantly, all of these skills help children be better students and maybe, just maybe, if they meet with success, they will be happier people. So, play to win!!!!!!
On the other hand, the horrific hurricane in Texas has been a true gut punch. The photos of the devastation and the rescue of the elderly, the young and the animals are especially compelling. I am reminded when I see the out-pouring of compassion, help (JJ Watts raising over 18 million to date) people taking in lost animals and helping to house strangers and the raw compassion that we know when things are at rock bottom, Americans come together and shoulder to shoulder carry on with purpose and strength.
We are looking forward to a wonderful school year, please stop in and say hello. We look forward to meeting all the new families applying to ECNS and sharing with you who we are and why we do what we do.
Wendy Levey

Someone is Ready to Buy Your Own House Today
If you have been considering relocating, there's no question there is some concern relating to reselling your house. According to the situation, it might be helpful to sell off to a person that says we buy houses for cash. This is great for all those conditions where you are likely to be moving about immediately. Perhaps you will find there's job possibility located in another area. In this instance, you will need to have issues taken care of so as to become resolved inside the new position at once.
Maybe you are likely to be submitting the divorce. If this is the situation, you are probably pondering what can you do to sell the home promptly in order for the couple could proceed upon with your own different life. It might be appealing to try to distribute the property by yourself. Regrettably, this approach doesn't constantly work. Look at the idea of offering your home to a person that claims we buy houses fast. Using this method, the whole process might be completed in nearly 2 weeks. Which means you are able to proceed easily.
Perhaps you are behind on the loan payment. If this describes the way it is, there might be some anxiety regarding the house going into property foreclosure. This doesn't really need to be a problem. Instead of dropping your home plus ruining your credit rating, think about selling the home to a person who'll purchase it at this time even if it needs a bit of work. Never assume that you are stuck with this specific property eternally. You can find selections for those people who are able to move ahead.

Hydronic Heating Floor Vs Wall – What Every Sydney Home Owner Should Know
If you're looking for a cost-effective way of heating your home during winter, hydronic heating in Sydney is well worth considering.
Hydronic heating operates by using water as a transfer source, circulated through pipes in floors or panels in walls. The water is warmed by radiators and convectors so each wall and floor surface can be heated. It conveys a passive heat that can warm a room 24 hours a day.
The heat conveyed by hydronics is safe and is deemed one of the most hygienic and energy efficient ways of heating your home.
With two popular options for hydronic heating, Sydney home owners can have a choice of installing a floor or wall system. Here are some things to consider when choosing the right hydronic heating system for your home.
Hydronic wall heating is easier to install than floor heating
Hydronic wall heating can be installed to established houses and properties as the panels can be attached to existing walls. Floor heating requires coils of pipe to be laid under floors and carpets. This type of heating is best installed during a renovation or new build. It's also a more expensive option to install.
Hydronic floor heating is better for appearances
If a home owner is particular about the look of their home, they may not want hydronic wall panels installed where they can be visible. Hydronic floor heating is installed under the floor, which makes it less obtrusive.
Hydronic wall heating offers a comfortable and steady heat
Hydronic wall heating radiates a steady and comfortable heat from its wall mounted panels. Because the panels cover a large surface area, compared to a normal radiant heater, the heat produced is neither dry or overbearing.
Hydronic heating is better for your health
Hydronic wall heating is better for your health as it doesn't re-circulate dust, allergens and pollutants from room to room. Instead, it radiates a gentle heat from wall-mounted panels that cover a larger surface area than a standard radiant heater. It pushes warm air into the room, without re-circulating the nasties you can sometimes find in air-conditioning units.
Hydronic heating is energy efficient
Most hydronic wall heating systems use energy efficient heat fuels including gas or the sun via solar panels to heat the water. As the hydronic wall system is enclosed, the water is able to be reticulated, while maintaining some of its temperature when it is circulated back to the boiler. This means it uses less energy to heat the water to its desired temperature, which is usually 60 degrees Celsius.
Hydronic heating systems must be installed by a licensed plumber, with specialised knowledge. They are the experts at working out the right size panels for the volume of air in your unique home or office space.
Gladesville Plumbing specialises in the installation of wall radiators and would be happy to advise on the right system for your home. If you're looking for a plumbing company who can install a hydronic wall heating system to your Sydney home, why not give Gladesville Plumbing a call on 02 9817 4777?

With European Trade Commissioner Karel De Gucht having dismissed the threat of legal action by pro-tariff solar lobby group EU ProSun on Monday, comments from the latter indicate the lawyers will be busy.
In a press statement released in the wake of De Gucht's announcement of a breakthrough in the EU-China solar panel trade case on Saturday, EU ProSun's Milan Nitzschke said any proposal for a minimum module price and cap on import volumes would fail to stand up to a legal challenge to the European Court of Justice.
In the statement, Nitzschke said the reported agreement details of which have yet to be confirmed by the trade commission violates EU laws and the decision threatens to derail even more solar firms in Europe.
"European anti-dumping policy 1225/2009 explicitly provides that a suspension of anti-dumping duties shall only be permitted if injury to the European industry can be proven to be prevented by applying minimum import prices," Nitzschke said.
Nitzschke criticized the widely reported minimum module price of 0.56 per watt (US$0.74/W) and import volume cap of 7 GW, adding: "This is almost a guaranteed market for China and a carte blanche to sell at dumping prices. A clear violation of European commercial law."
Provisional duties were already subject to legal complaint
According to EU ProSun, even the current June-August provisional duties were a violation against anti-dumping policy and Nitzschke added European companies have already filed a complaint against it in a lawsuit.
The reported agreement thrashed out on Saturday is a new offense, said Nitzschke, adding: "It is not our intention to block the negotiations but to fight for our rights. The trade case has to be resolved on the basis of applicable law."
He went on to say if this compromise goes through the EU trade defence mechanism will be violated and every European industry, from steel production to the auto industry, cannot be assured they will be protected against dumping and illegal subsidies from trade rivals.
"For Europe's industrial base that would be devastating," added the EU ProSun spokesman in Saturday's statement.
Nitzschke was unavailable for comment this morning.

Blond: The Mission Of Torrie Wilson - Glamapussy
by Kristi (firstname.lastname@example.com)
and Frederick "Dice" Casden (firstname.lastname@example.com)
Outside of the luxurious Double Tree Suites hotel in beautiful and sunny
Miami, Florida, the sensational and beautiful Blond Bombshell, Torrie
Wilson, is laying out on a beach chair at the pool side area while she
works on her gorgeous golden-brown tan. Torrie lays her head back and
closes her sunglasses over her eyes as she relaxes, wearing a delightful
white two-piece bikini. As Torrie puts her hands behind her head, her cell
phone begins to ring on the poolside table that's next to her. Torrie gets
an annoyed look on her face as she starts to reach over to get her cell
phone. "Hello..." Torrie Wilson says as she answers her pink razor cell
phone and tosses her gorgeous blond hair back while pursing her lips
"Torrie... it's Coach... Mr. McMahon needs to see you right away... it's an
emergency..." Coachman says from the other end of the line.
Torrie slowly sits up in the beach chair and glances around, surveying her
surroundings of the vacant pool side area "What's wrong Coach?" Torrie asks
as she starts to gather her towel and tanning lotion.
"I can't really say... all I know is that... Mr. McMahon said to contact you
to come to the arena where RAW is at right away before the show starts."
"Ok...I'm on my way Coach..." Torrie replies before closing her cell phone.
* * *
An hour later at the American Airlines Arena in Miami, Florida; Torrie Wilson
is arriving at Mr. McMahon's executive office as she sees that the door is
opening as Jonathan Coachman looks out into the hall to see if she's coming.
"Oh Torrie... glad that you could make it... Mr. McMahon is waiting for you."
Coachman says.
Torrie Wilson, now dressed in a pair of tight fitting jeans and a white tank
top, smiles and nods her head "I got here as soon as I could..." Torrie
replies before she walks right into the executive office of the Chairman, Mr.
McMahon, while Jonathan Coachman holds the door opens for the sensual Blond
Bombshell before he then follows her in. "Hello Mr. McMahon..." Torrie says
as she walks up to Mr. McMahon's desk, while noticing her apprentice Kelly
Kelly and the executive designer Maria sitting on the couch inside of the
"Hello Torrie... please have a seat....Coach close the door..." Mr. McMahon
says as he sits in his chair and taps his fingers on his desk.
"Yes sir..." Coachman says as he closes the door to the office.
Torrie Wilson bites down on her bottom lip as she sits down in front of Mr.
McMahon's desk at one of the chairs "What's the problem Mr. McMahon?" Torrie
asks as she looks directly at the Chairman.
"Glad to see you're ready for your assignment..." Mr. McMahon clears his
throat, "There is a Diva reeking sexual havoc on the RAW Roster in the locker
room area... taking on and out whoever she pleases and needs to be stopped...
one of the RAW Superstars tried... and this Diva dominated him to the point
where he has to be granted a few weeks off."
Torrie raises an eyebrow as she looks at Mr. McMahon and then over at her
apprentice, Kelly Kelly. "Mr. McMahon...I don't know if I can go at this
alone...if this problem is as bad as it seems, maybe Kelly could come with
me..." Torrie begins to says as the adorable and cute Kelly Kelly smiles
and nods her head.
"Oh yeah! That would be so much fun! Me and Torrie working together, taking
out the bad guys!" Kelly says excitedly.
Mr. McMahon shakes his head, "No... I would send Kelly with you... however
she needs further training.... I don't want to put her in over her head just
"Awww man!" Kelly says as she lowers her head and frowns.
Torrie Wilson smiles at Kelly's reaction before she turns her attention back
to Mr. McMahon "Is there anything else I need to know for this assignment?"
"Yes.... Maria has some new equipment for you... and Coach has offered his
help to demonstrate them to you" Mr. McMahon says.
Coachman raises an eyebrow, "I did?"
Torrie smiles and laughs a little as she glances over at Jonathan Coachman
"He did?" Torrie replies as she glances back at Mr. McMahon and smirks a bit.
"Yes he did..." Mr. McMahon says as he looks at Maria, "Maria... you may
begin... Coach step forward."
Coachman gets a nervous look on his face, "Yes sir..." Coachman says as he
starts to step towards Mr. McMahon's desk.
The cute and ditzy executive designer for Mr. McMahon, Maria stands up from
the couch and starts to approach Mr. McMahon's desk to join Torrie Wilson, as
Kelly Kelly follows Maria while she carries Maria's latest designs inside of
a box. "Hey Torrie!" Maria says
"Hi Maria... what goodies do I get this time?" Torrie asks as she stands up
from the chair she's sitting on to get a good look at what Maria has brought.
Maria presses her lips together and places her hands on her smoothly rounded
hips "Well Torrie..." Maria begins to say as Kelly sets the box onto the desk
and Kelly hands Maria the first item, which Maria takes and then hands to
Torrie Wilson "Now Torrie this might appear to be normal lip-gloss..."
Torrie raises an eyebrow and smiles, "I'm guessing it's more than just normal
lip-gloss..." Torrie laughs a bit.
Maria nods her head and smiles "You bet!" Maria says with a cute laugh as
she places her hands together "With that lip-gloss...it will help act as a
lubricant to loosen the lock on a door if it is locked..." Maria says with
a cute smile.
"Hmmmm... better keep that away from some Edge... he might try to get into
someone's hotel room..." Torrie laughs a bit.
Maria scrunches her nose up cutely "Yeah...could you imagine..." Maria turns
back to the box as Kelly Kelly hands her a black high heel. "Ok...now this is
completely awesome..." Maria says as she turns back to Torrie, while holding
onto the high heel with her left hand.
Torrie smiles, "It looks highly fashionable too..." Torrie says as she leans
in for a closer look.
Coachman gets a nervous look on his face, "What is it?" Coachman asks.
"Oh! I crafted this high heel to act as a boom-a-range!" Maria replies
"Coach would you mind catching this?" Maria asks as she cutely looks at Mr.
McMahon's Executive Assistant "Don't worry this won't hurt at all..."
Coachman raises an eyebrow, "Um... sure..." Coachman says as he prepares to
catch the high heel that Maria is holding, "Wait... why did you say this
won't..." Coachman starts to say.
"Ready Coach?" Maria asks as she steps in front of Torrie and prepares to
throw the high heel.
"Oh Coach! Your shoe is untied..." Kelly Kelly cutely calls out, pointing to
the untied shoe of Jonathan Coachman just as Maria throws the high heel.
"It is?" Coachman looks and bends down to check his shoe as Maria throws the
high heel, which goes past Coachman. "No it's not..." Coachman says as he
stands up straight just as the high heel starts to head back to Maria, but
instead it smacks him on the back of the head with a loud thud, and a moment
later, Coachman hits the floor of Mr. McMahon's office, knocked out by the
high heel boomerang.
"Wow... it works..." Torrie says as Coachman lays on the floor.
Maria scrunches her nose up "Sorry Coach..."
Mr. McMahon tries not to laugh, "All right... Torrie... you have your
equipment... RAW starts in a few hours... so I need this situation wrapped
up before then."
Torrie smiles and nods her head "I won't let you down, Mr. McMahon..."
* * *
A short time later, Torrie Wilson is roaming the hallways of the American
Airlines Arena as she passes by RAW's General Manger William Regal. Regal
notices Torrie and immediately calls out to her, "Ms. Wilson... a moment of
your time..."
Torrie pauses and turns to face RAW's General Manager, William Regal. "Yes,
Mr. Regal?" Torrie says as she presses her soft lips together.
"I'm so glad that Mr. McMahon has sent you to take care of this... problem
that RAW is having..." Regal says as he shudders slightly, "It's been
complete anarchy all day."
Torrie slowly nods her head "Oh...oh Mr. Regal, I didn't know Mr. McMahon
sent you" Torrie says as she cautiously glances over her shoulder "What can
you tell me about the problem?"
Regal sighs, "That horrendous.. hideous Beth Phoenix... is having her way
with the entire RAW locker room to satisfy her passionate desires..."
Torrie Wilson raises an eyebrow and makes a slightly disgusted look "Oh...
"Yes it's quite disturbing..." William Regal says as he shakes his head. "She
has been destroying the locker room one by one.... she needs to be stopped as
soon as possible."
Torrie slowly nods her head and presses her sensual lips together "Do you
know where she is?"
"From what I understand... she was spotted following Val Venis around the
city since this morning..." Regal says.
"Ok...thank you Mr. Regal..." Torrie Wilson replies as she starts to turn
"You're welcome Ms. Wilson... but do be careful..." William Regal says, "From
what young Kendrick told me... she is quite... bull like to manhandling those
who deny her."
* * *
Inside of the RAW Superstars' locker room, Val Venis has set his travel bag
down on the locker room bench after arriving in the arena a short time ago.
Val glances to his left and right, "Looks like I'm the first one here..."
Val says to himself. Val is dressed in a gray collared shirt and black
As Val Venis begins to unbuckle his belt from around his black slacks, he
pauses when he hears the sound of two footsteps entering the locker room.
"The weak fail...as the strong always survive..." The dominating, beautiful
and vicious Glamazon, Beth Phoenix says as the locker room door closes behind
her with a loud crash. Beth Phoenix wickedly smirks as she raises an eyebrow,
when Val Venis turns around to face her. The powerful Glamazon, is dressed in
a pair of tight black pants and a tight black top, with her WWE Women's
Championship draped over her left shoulder.
Val Venis raises an eyebrow as he looks at The Glamazon Beth Phoenix. "Hey...
this is the men's locker room..." Val says as he puts his hands on his waist.
"Although with you... some people could mistake you for a man with a jaw like
that..." Val says jokingly.
Beth Phoenix grits her teeth as she slides the Championship belt off of
her shoulder and allows the belt to simply drop to the locker room floor.
"Nobody insults someone as gifted with beauty and strength, such as I...
The Glamazon!" Beth says with fury in her voice before she charges towards
Val and impressively knocks Val down to the locker room floor.
"Whoa!" Val yells as he hits the floor roughly. The former Adult Film Star is
stunned and is gathering his senses as he remains in an extremely vulnerable
position, much to the delight of The Glamazon.
Beth Phoenix wickedly snickers as she presses her lips firmly together. Beth
mounts her muscular, beautiful body onto of Val Venis, pinning his arms to
the cold locker room floor "The Glamazon always comes out on top..." Beth
says before she viciously tears Val's gray collared shirt apart, exposing his
muscular, tanned chest.
Val shakes his head slightly as he tries to sit up, but Beth keeps his pinned
down on the floor, "Hey... that was a $50 shirt!" Val yells as Beth strips
the remains of his torn shirt from his tanned, muscular upper body. Beth
raises an eyebrow and smirks as she tosses her gorgeous blond hair back
before she lowers herself down Val's body and starts to roughly open his
black slacks, jerking them down from his muscular waist.
"Hey! If you want some of the Big Valbowski... there's better ways to go
about it!" Val Venis yells as Beth jerks his slacks down enough so that his
incredible thick twelve inch cock becomes revealed. Beth lifts her head and
wickedly glares at Val Venis as the powerful, exotic Glamazon sits between
Val's legs, after throwing his black slacks to the side. Beth roughly grabs
hold of Val's thick twelve inch cock and starts to roughly stroke her left
hand against his hardening shaft.
"Uhhhh ahhhh... fuck!" Val groans loudly as Beth Phoenix roughly pumps her
left hand up and down his fat hardening cock. Val grits his teeth as he
starts to sit up, but Beth uses her free right hand to shove him back down
with ease.
"Pathetic..." Beth says with a smirk before she lowers her exotic blond
haired head and opens her warm mouth, taking Val's cock. Beth firmly places
her lips around his shaft and starts to quickly bob her head, fiercely
sucking his thick shaft.
"Ahhhh... uhhh awww.... fuck!" Val Venis moans loudly as Beth Phoenix bobs
her head up and down on his fat foot long shaft. The former Adult Film Star
balls his fists but doesn't try to hit The Glamazon with his cock deep inside
of her warm wet mouth.
"Mmmmm! Mmmmm!" Beth Phoenix roughly moans against Val's cock as her lips
roughly grind against Val's shaft while she quickly moves her on his cock.
Beth twists her head as she lowers herself down his shaft as she starts to
deep throat his entire cock with ease.
"Ohhhh... ohhh my god!" Val moans loudly as he instinctively lifts his hips
to push his cock upward into Beth's mouth as she deep throats every inch of
his twelve inch shaft.
"MMMMMM!" Beth moans as the head of Val's cock smacks against the back of her
viciously hot mouth. Beth presses her lips tighter around Val's thick shaft
as she holds him deep in her mouth.
"Ohhhh god damn it... ohhh fuck...." Val moans as The Glamazon expectedly
sucks his cock to weaken him to the point where she knows he's not going to
fight back.
Beth Phoenix slowly lifts her head off of Val's cock and wickedly smirks as
her saliva drips down his thick shaft. "I'm ready for my pleasure..." Beth
says as lifts her top, exposing her firm and rounded tits. The powerful
Glamazon lifts her exotic hips as she pushes her tight black pants down from
her waist and removes them completely, revealing her wickedly hot pussy.
Before Val Venis has a chance to move, the Glamazon roughly mounts herself
onto Val's cock, lowering her tight Glamapussy onto his cock.
"Ahhhhh! UHHHHH!" Val grunts as he feels the weight of The Glamazon coming
down on his twelve inch cock. Val grabs Beth's hips to try and push her off
of his shaft, but she easily smacks his hands away.
Beth grits her teeth as she places her hands firmly onto Val's muscular chest
as she starts to wickedly rock back and forth on his thick cock. "Ohhhhh!
Ohhhhh fuck!" Beth moans as she closes her eyes and tilts her head back as
she quickly moves back and forth on Val's twelve inch cock.
"Ohhhhh ahhhh fuck... ohhh ahhh..." Val groans and moans as Beth roughly
rocks on his thick, hard cock. Val clenches his eyes shut and grits his teeth
as The Glamazon jerks his cock with each of her sharp movements.
"Ohhhh yes! Ohhhh everyone comes to defeat when they face the Glamazon!"
Beth Phoenix moans as she moves her hands against Val's muscular chest while
rocking back and forth at a quicker pace, as she bucks her hips to slam her
exotic body down onto Val's cock inside of her wet pussy.
"Ahhhh mmmmm ahhh uhhh!" Val bites his tongue as Beth bounces up and down on
his fat cock, and Val can feel Beth's ass cheeks slapping down hard on his
muscular thighs while she rides him.
"You like that!? Mmmmm I love it!" Beth moans loudly and leans back and
places her hands on Val's strong legs as she quickly and roughly bounces on
his rock hard cock "Ohhhhh fuck!" Beth Phoenix moans as she grits her teeth
"Fucking.... big... boned.... bitch...." Val manages to say in between his
moans and grunts as he tries to withstand the dominating sexual assault The
Glamazon is laying on him. Beth narrows her eyes as the exotic, powerful
Glamazon roughly rocks back and forth on Val's cock as she grinds her
wickedly wet and warm pussy against his shaft.
"Ahhh shit... fuck... ahhhh..." Val Venis moans as he clenches his eyes shut
as Beth roughly rides his twelve inch cock which begins to throb within her
Glamazon cunt.
Beth wickedly smirks as she leans forward and lowers her face to Val's
"The Glamazon dominates everything in her path..." Beth says, her warm and
seducing breath hitting against Val's face as she keeps her muscular body
down on Val's cock firmly grind herself down on his throbbing cock.
"Ahhhh uhhh fuck... you...." Val moans as the powerful, beautiful Glamazon
tortures his throbbing cock, expertly keeping him on the edge of cumming as
the former Adult Film Star begins to sweat.
Beth licks her exotic lips as she feels Val's warm cum spraying into her
pussy as she starts to roughly bounce on his throbbing cock again "Ohhh yeah!
You are so weak!" Beth moans.
"Ahhhh... uhhhhh ohhhh fuck!" Val moans as he cums long and hard inside of
Beth's hot Glamazon pussy. Val lays underneath Beth, completely worn out and
Beth slowly lifts herself off of Val and stands up with her teeth gritted
"You are weak...just like the others!" Beth says as she narrows her eyes
down at Val "Time to feel the wrath of the Glamazon!" Beth Phoenix says
with wickedly smirks.
"Hey Beth!" Torrie Wilson suddenly calls out from behind as she holds the WWE
Women's Championship. Beth raises an eyebrow as she slowly turns around and
comes face to face with her own Championship belt as Torrie hits Beth with
the belt.
Val Venis opens his eyes just in time to see Beth Phoenix falling to the
floor next to him after Torrie nailed her with the Women's Championship belt.
"What... what just happened?" Val says with a confused look on his face.
Torrie smiles as she extends her hands "Come on...let's get out of here..."
* * *
Back at the luxurious Double Tree Suites hotel, Torrie Wilson and Val Venis
are sitting on pool side chairs next to the heated outdoor Olympic sized
swimming pool. Val is dressed in dark purple swim shorts as he looks at
Torrie, "You know Torrie... The Big Valbowski is really grateful for what
you did earlier..."
The sensual, seductive and extremely beautiful Blond Bombshell, Torrie
Wilson, presses her soft lips together as she sits up slightly "Don't worry
about it Val...I was happy to help out..." Torrie says with a smile as she
is dressed in a stunning black two-piece bikini, that perfectly shows her
gorgeously tanned body.
Val smiles, "Trust me... I'm very glad you came along..." Val says as he sits
up a bit himself, "I really feel like I should repay you..." Val says.
Torrie raise an eyebrow and smirks a bit as she tosses her blond hair back,
turning to face the former Adult Film Star. "Well...I'm sure you could repay
me..." Torrie Wilson says in a soft, seductive voice before she gently mounts
herself on Val's leans and gently pushes him down onto his back before
lowering herself to gently kiss Val's lips.
"Mmmmm..." Val moans as he starts to return Torrie's gentle kiss as he lays
back down on the pool side chair. Val puts his hands on Torrie's waist as he
opens his mouth to allow her to push her tongue into his mouth. Torrie closes
her eyes as she slides her wet tongue against Val's tongue as she gently
rocks her seductive body on the crotch of Val's dark purple swimming shorts.
"Mmmmm..." Val moans against as he flicks his tongue against Torrie's tongue
as he feels Torrie rocks back and forth on his hardening crotch. Val breaks
the kiss with the Blond Bombshell and smirks, "You know Torrie... the Big
Valbowski can be very... very... appreciative..." Val says with a smirk.
Torrie smirks as she places her hands on Val's muscular chest and seductively
raises an eyebrow "Oh yeah? I think I'd like to find out..." Torrie replies
with a soft laugh.
Val licks his lips as he eases Torrie off of himself and lifts her on the
pool side chair. Val then eases himself off of chair and kneels on the ground
so that he can begin sliding down her black bikini bottoms from her waist
revealing her smoothly shaved and desirable pussy. "Mmmmmm.... nice..." Val
says as he removes Torrie's bikini bottoms from her legs before he leans his
head forward to flick his tongue against her pussy.
"Mmmm...ohhhh Val..." Torrie softly moans as she presses her soft lips
together as she leans her head back against the beach chair, while feeling
Val's tongue lapping against her soft, warm pussy. Val places his hands on
Torrie's smooth gorgeous waist as he begins to lap his tongue quicker against
Torrie's soft, warm pussy. Val's warm saliva drips from his tongue and onto
Torrie's pussy before he pushes his tongue into her.
"Mmmm...ohhhh...ohhh yeah Val..." Torrie moans as she gently grits her teeth
and gently grits her pussy against Val's lips and tongue as he flicks his
tongue around inside of her delicious and desirable pussy.
Val slides his hands back and forth on Torrie's smooth waist as he darts his
tongue in and out of Torrie's wet, warm pussy. "Mmmmm... mmm..." Val moans as
he glances up at Torrie and winks as he circles his tongue around inside of
her pussy.
"Ohhhhh! Ohhhh! Ohhhh!" Torrie moans loudly as she lifts her hands and
lightly pulls on her blond hair as she starts to grind her pussy at a
slightly rough pace against Val's lips "Ohhhh shit!"
Val keeps moving his tongue in and out of Torrie's pussy before he lifts his
head up from between Torrie's legs. "Told you I can be a grateful man..." Val
says with a grin as he sits on the pool side chair before he starts to push
down his dark purple swim shorts.
Torrie sits up and licks her soft, sensual lips before she moves off of the
pool side chair and positions herself down onto her knees in front of the
former Adult Film Star as he lowers his swim shorts "Mmmm...I've waited a
while for this..."
Val chuckles slightly, "Everyone woman has..." Val says as his extremely
thick and rock hard twelve inch cock becomes exposed. Val kicks off his
swim shorts and leans back on the pool side chair as Torrie sizes up his
impressive shaft.
Torrie raises an eyebrow and smirks "I can see why..." Torrie says before she
places her soothing hands around his thick cock and guides Val's twelve inch
shaft into sensual, hot mouth. Torrie presses her soft lips around his shaft
and begins to smoothly bob her head, while rocking back and forth on her
"Mmmmmm.... ahhhh...." Val Venis moans as he watches Torrie Wilson raise and
lower her head on his foot long cock. Val licks his lips and smirks, "Reminds
me of Jenna from the old days..." Val moans and smirks. Torrie lifts her
desirable eyes and locks them with Val as her soft lips smoothly rub back and
forth against his thick shaft while she starts to bob her head at a quick,
but gently pace as she slaps her wet tongue around his cock.
"Mmmmmm ohhhh yeah... mmmm..." Val moans as he lays all the way back on the
pool side chair as Torrie quickly bobs her head up and down on his cock. Val
puts his hands behind his head and closes his eyes as he feels Torrie's hot
mouth on his large dick. Torrie lightly twists her head on Val's cock as her
wet saliva drips down on his shaft before she opens her mouth wider and
lowers her head completely down on Val's twelve inches in order to deep
throat his cock.
"Ahhhh... mmmm that's it Torrie... mmmmm..." Val moans as the Blond Bombshell
known as Torrie Wilson swallows every inch of his thick, hard, foot long
shaft. Torrie taps her soft tongue against the bottom side of Val's thick
shaft before she slowly lifts her head off of his cock and smirks "So...how
do I compare to Jenna?"
Val Venis licks his lips, "You compare very... very well to her... put you
both in my next movie and watch the box office explode..." Val says with a
Torrie licks her lips "I'd sure like to explode with passion...courtesy of
you Val" Torrie says with a wink as she sits on her knees, seductively
looking at Val Venis.
Val licks his lips again, "That is a request I'm glad to take..." Val says as
he sits up and leans forward to take hold of Torrie. The well-hung Superstar
gently pulls Torrie up onto his lap and lowers her hot, tight and wet pussy
onto his rock hard cock.
"Mmmm...ohhhh Val!" Torrie Wilson moans as she places her hands onto his
strong shoulders and begins to immediately rock back and forth on his rock
hard cock, inside of her warm pussy, while he sits on the pool side chair.
Val puts his hands on Torrie's perfectly tanned ass cheeks and squeezes them
as the Blond Bombshell rocks back and forth on his stiff cock. "Mmmm ohhhh
yeah Torrie... mmm..." Val moans.
Torrie leans her head back and closes her beautiful eyes as she smoothly
rocks back and forth on Val's cock, lightly grinding her soft pussy against
his thick shaft "Mmmm... Val... ohhhh..." Torrie moans as she starts to
lightly bounce on his cock.
"Uhhh mmmmm ahhh.. I see you've done this before...." Val moans as he keeps
his hands on Torrie's gorgeous ass as she bounces up and down easily on his
rock hard cock. Val then starts to rock on the pool side chair in order to
pump his cock upward into Torrie's pussy.
Torrie laughs as she moves her soft hands down to Val's muscular chest and
opens her eyes to lock them with Val "I usually don't sleep around and
tell..." Torrie says with a laugh as she continues to grind her beautifully
tanned body on his cock while she starts to sweat.
"Mmmmm... ahhh... don't worry... I can tell a lot about you..." Val groans
as he rolls over so that Torrie is laying on her back with him on top of her.
Val puts his hands on Torrie's hips and begins to firmly thrust his twelve
inch cock in and out of Torrie's tight pussy.
"Mmmm...ohhhh fuck!" Torrie moans as she wraps her smooth, tanned legs around
Val's muscular waist as she steadily rocks underneath Val's muscular body,
matching his thrusts from his thick cock. Torrie places her hands on Val's
strong arms as he quickly slams his cock into her.
"Uhhhhh ahhh yeah..." Val moans as he leans forward so that his muscular,
tanned body is pressing down on Torrie's while he pumps his shaft in and out
of her pussy. Torrie closes her eyes as she lifts her head and gently pushes
her tongue into Val's warm mouth, lustfully kissing him while she smoothly
grinds against his muscular body.
"Mmmmm..." Val moans as he slides his tongue against Torrie's tongue while he
firmly pumps his cock in and out of her tight warm pussy. Val's balls press
right against Torrie's smooth skin with each of his thrusts and sweat lightly
drips off of his body.
"Mmmmmm!" Torrie moans into Val's mouth as she gently sucks on his tongue.
Torrie presses her tanned legs tighter around his muscular waist as her pussy
clenches around his thick cock and the beautiful Blond Bombshell starts to
"Ahhhh uhhhh!" Val grunts and moans as Torrie sucks on his tongue while he
pumps his cock in and out of her cumming pussy. Val breaks the kiss with
Torrie and leans his head back, "Ohhhh Torrie..." Val groans as he starts
to cum inside of Torrie's hot, wet pussy.
Torrie closes her eyes and pleasantly lays her head back as she feels the
warm sensation of Val's cum unloading into her pussy "Mmmm.. Val..."
"Ahhhh... mmmm..." Val moans as he finishes cumming, "I told you I would be
very grateful...." Val says with a slight smirk.
Torrie smiles as she opens her eyes and looks at Val "You know...I have
another assignment...I could use some back-up."
Val grins, "Torrie... I'll gladly back you up... I do some great under cover
Torrie presses her luscious lips and raises an eyebrow "Mmm...I bet you do

Day after his diktat to all Indians to chant 'Bharat Mata ki Jai', Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis today issued clarification after he found himself embroiled in a controversy over the issue.
Fadnavis, in his statement, said that he had given a 50-minute long speech on Saturday in which he only talked about the slogan and Shani Shignapur temple issue for five minutes. "Media picked only 'Bharat Mata Ki Jai' and that too only a part of it. It clearly proves that a section of media is interested in creating controversy only," he said, launching an attack on the media.
Fadnavis on Saturday said, every Indian will have to chant 'Bharat Mata ki Jai'and those who refuse to chant the slogan should not live in the country.
Opposition have slammed Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis's statement and called it a "ploy to divert attention from relevant issues".
"The people who hold 'bhagwa' flag dearer than the Tricolour want to take India back to the medieval ages," Janata Dal United (JD-U) spokesman KC Tyagi told IANS.
Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) leader Nilotpal Basu called it "tattoo-ism".
"Forcing others to chant 'Bharat mata ki jai' and making statements that those who don't chant it should leave India is not patriotism; it is tattoo-ism. They want to flaunt it like a tattoo on their bodies," Basu told IANS.
Full statement of CM Devendra Fadnavis:
In my 50-minute speech, for 45 long minutes I spoke about Maharashtra's drought situation & development and just for 5 minutes I spoke on Bharat Mata Ki Jai & Shani Shingnapur issue but media picked only 'Bharat Mata Ki Jai' and that too only a part of it. It clearly proves that a section of media is interested in creating controversy only .
I also mentioned in my speech yesterday that 'Bharat Mata Ki Jai' has nothing to do with religion because I salute those 500 plus patriotic, highly placed and highly respected Muslim Clerics who not only did National Flag hoisting at Mahim Dargah(Mumbai) but also chanted Bharat Mata Ki Jai with a feeling of nationalism and patriotism on 17th March on the occasion of 603rd Urs of Hajrat Makhdum Fateh Ali Mahimi. No media is broadcasting this.
We absolutely have no problem if somebody says Jai Hind or Jai Bharat or Jai Hindustan, but all we object about is when someone says, " I won't say Bharat Mata Ki Jai". There is a limit to Appeasement too.
It is not merely about the slogan but it is about those lakhs and lakhs of freedom fighters who sacrificed their life chanting Bharat Mata Ki Jai, about those thousands and thousands of soldiers who selflessly attained martyrdom chanting Bharat Mata Ki Jai.
Those who are opposing it have mala fide interests and intentions. They are those divisive forces who want to create a rift in our country and wish to break the unity. Why should we tolerate it?

Plastics – kudos to olive oil supremoes Mother's Garden
Kudos to our pals at Mother's Garden, a tiny business in Priorat, Spain, that makes the best olive oil in the world (trust us, we're in PR). They've won loads of awards with it, including the Delia Taste Test. Anyhow, they've always been hot on the environment and now they've stopped with the (recycled) plastic they had been using, and are going over to tin cans.
It's bound to be a pain in the neck, especially for such a small company, and will muck up their costings no doubt. They say: "We recognise the urgent need for a reduction in plastic production and waste – David Attenborough, Greenpeace and Friends of the Earth are absolutely right – and so we have made this decision; the Mother's Garden shipment heading for England this week will be our last using PET1 recyclable plastic containers." We say, good for them. Go buy some of their oil here.

Don't fail before you start - writing a business plan
If you've got a great idea for a new business it's going to take hard work and organisation to bring it to fruition especially if you need to ask for funding.

- Make business planning an ongoing priority
- Develop and refine your business strategy
- Set out your marketing plan
- Develop an operational plan
- Generate your finance forecasts
- Use your information to evaluate options
- Draw up budgets to implement your plan

It's Christmas time, there's no need to
be afraid. It's Christmas time, the FSA and most of the lenders have
no idea what is going on.
total of 24 years in sales and marketing – and it is hard to believe
that any lenders want to do business at the moment, apart from First
Active. As you may realise, I am proud of being independent and feel that the
recent events – M-Day, etc – should have highlighted this. However,
with various lenders insisting on minimum levels of business and some
refusing to do business with new firms, who is kidding who? Perhaps
the Consumers' Association will pick up on this and put the industry
in a spin again. Anyway, that aside, what about the Worst Lender Service Awards? It is
anyone's guess who is going to win next year. I am afraid that
Northern Rock appears favourite to snatch the crown away from
Nationwide, However, Halifax seems to be keen to make its presence
known. And before anyone says: "We don't have any problems with
them," you need to work in the real world and speak to the brokers
that write the business. Andrew ForseyBristol

Clarke's Court is a well known brand of rum distillers having been in operation since the 1930's and the largest on the island of Grenada. Entrepreneurial company Ramsey Rum (who you may have heard of as the sponsors of last years Rum Blogger Of The Year award at the Golden Barrel Awards – don't worry we're not trying to buy votes!) working alongside Hire the Barman, have started a renewed push for the Clarke's Court family of Rums onto the UK scene and that's being led by their Old Grog Rum.
Old Grog is a blend of molasses rums aged between 4 and 12 years, despite no age claim listed on the bottle. During the ageing process both Whiskey and Bourbon barrels are used, which are then blended together which makes for a lovely golden amber colour in the bottle. Not as dark as some other rums in the category which we're pleased to report is down to the fact that no additional colouring is added. Close controls are placed on the barrel selection phase to ensure a consistent result in flavour and colour during the ageing process. Old Grog is bottled in-country at 40% ABV.
We picked up notes of banana and sherbet. The smell is very sweet with almost no smell of alcohol.
Although tasting quite watery at first, this actually helps the smoothness when sipping as there is very little burn. The banana flavour is prominent and the after taste is a very nice mellow finish of fruit with a slight oak flavour from the cask.
We loved the presentation, with the bottle presented in a drawstring canvas sack bearing the Old Grog name and sailing ship, hailing back to the naval days where the name Grog originally came from. The bottle itself is simple with a gold screw-cap top and a label which goes into more detail about the naval history of the rum (we won't spoil it – you'll have to buy a bottle and read for yourself!)
Mix it up
Old Grog fits in a nice price point where it's pleasant enough to sip and enjoy but also affordable enough that should you want to, you shouldn't feel guilty about mixing (what we call a "Sip 'n' Mixer"). We tried it in a classic Cuba Libre where the banana and fruit notes really help create a refreshing tropical drink which was very nice, even giving well known rums like Bacardi 8 a run for its money.
Country: Grenada
Price: ~£30
Where to buy
Old Grog is on sale online from Master of Malt or TheDrinkShop and also available from Gerry's Wine and Spirits in Soho, London.
Although not a new rum, often experience wins out and its clear to see why this rum has picked up many awards in the last 10 years, most recently winning Gold at the World Spirits Awards in 2010. For anyone who enjoys a more fruity drink for their cocktails, we recommend seeking out a bottle of Old Grog.
Special Offer
Ramsey Rum will be hosting a stall at this years Foodies Festival in Clapham Common later in the year (June 7th – 9th) and have very kindly offered a special deal to readers of All Star Cask. Any readers who tweet a link to this review using @OldGrogRum & @AllStarCask will be able to claim a whopping 25% off a bottle of Old Grog purchased on the day. But that's not all! Ramsey Rum are also offering 2 for the price of 1 on Cocktails bought at the festival so get Tweeting!

The Great Divide: Married versus Divorced
This is for the singles, the never married, the divorced and the ones who worry that by living differently they are somehow wrong. I'll admit that the first few months post my separation I felt… exposed.

This Saturday 28 March the world will switch off the lights to VOTE EARTH!
This global initiative (which began in Sydney 2007) takes on a new spin as it is transformed into the world's first global election. Switch off your lights to vote Earth. Leave them on to vote global warming. Which will you choose?
