Kim Kardashian Is Launching her Own Makeup Line
Could there be some sister rivalry?
Kim Kardashian just announced that she will be taking a leaf out of baby sis Kylie Jenner's book by launching her very own beauty brand.
Although Kim is keeping pretty cryptic at the moment, simply taking to Instagram to tease her millions of followers with a short video, she has revealed KKW Beauty will launch on 21st June. Eek that's pretty soon.
The reality star already collaborated with her youngest sibling earlier this year on KKW X Kylie for her ridiculously popular cosmetics range and we guess she loved it so much she wants to go it alone.
Hopefully the family can make room for another makeup mogul, otherwise things could get pretty awks.
There's no word as yet on what products she will launch but if her signature look and the teaser video is anything to go by, expect nudes.
The entrepreneurial babe might have given her sis a miss, but she could have enlisted some help from her beloved glam squad. Her long-time beauty bae Mario Dedivanovic shared her promo video with the caption: "The Glam Queen has arrived... get ready to be SNATCHED."
No idea what snatched is but we're so ready...


text: RETURN TO EARTH by DAVID BRAY opens 9th March 2018 After a year spent in the Kent, East Sussex & Suffolk countryside 'en plein air' following the success of 'Earth' held at Ben Oakley Gallery in 2017, (his first solo exhibition in the genre) David Bray is set to present 'Return to Earth' 2018 an outstanding fresh collection of paintings. Demonstrating mastery of Acrylic painting his voluminous output ranges from depictions of local topography to atmospheric renderings of pending weather fronts, sunsets, sunbursts and inspiring terrain. Exploring and developing these techniques and 'really getting his feet dirty' this newfound passion in abstract landscape painting is truly bringing out the precision and skills we are all used to seeing from Bray in a totally different light. First hand observations delicately feathered, subtly coloured brush strokes flow as freely as the grass swaying in the breeze, blending the earth into skies and horizons with an intense atmosphere and depth. It is our great pleasure to promote this truly versatile and efficacious artist and to host this fantastic Exhibition 'Return to Earth' our first show of the year 2018. We look forward to seeing you all on Friday the 9th March at Ben Oakley Gallery in Greenwich from 7pm. The exhibition ends on the 25th March 2018. The artist will be in attendance.

Incidence among children is on the rise
Due to the increasing incidence of peanut allergies, especially in young children, the diagnosis and management of these allergies is a pressing national concern. Peanut allergies are the most common cause of food allergy-related deaths, accounting for 55% in the United States.1,2
A cross-sectional study found that the number of self-reported cases of peanut allergy in children has tripled between 1997 and 2008.3 With an increasing number of children bearing the potential for hypersensitivity reactions, the topic of peanut allergy has become a public health concern that many are eager to understand.
Overall, the area of peanut allergies is still being explored and research is ongoing to help improve our understanding and management of peanut allergies. This article focuses on the epidemiology, pathophysiology, manifestations, diagnosis and potential treatment options of peanut allergy among children.
Commonly arising in childhood and persisting lifelong, peanut allergies are an IgE-mediated type I hypersensitivity reaction and can cause reactions ranging from mild skin irritation to fatal anaphylactic shock.
Although some studies have shown that up to 20% of peanut allergies in children may resolve spontaneously, peanut allergies may recur, even in patients who have had negative oral challenges. In one study, 8% of children diagnosed with peanut allergy who later became tolerant, as indicated by negative challenge, could not, in the future, tolerate peanuts in their diet.5
Recent evidence shows that the development of peanut allergy may have a genetic component. A child with a parent or sibling with peanut allergy has a seven-fold increased chance of developing the allergy. A study of monozygotic twins found a 64% likelihood of a child having a peanut allergy if his/her monozygotic twin had the same allergy.6
Children may have adverse reactions to peanuts, which may or may not be immunological in nature. Determining if the reaction is immunological is key to the diagnosis of peanut allergies.
Immunological reactions are considered an "adverse health effect arising from a specific immune response that occurs reproducibly on exposure to a given food." 6 In susceptible people, peanut proteins cause an IgE-mediated type I hypersensitivity reaction. Exposure to the peanut protein allergen leads to the production of allergen specific IgE, which is then bound to high-affinity IgE receptors on mast cells or basophils.
During this phase, after the initial exposure, the patient remains asymptomatic. However, the patient becomes vulnerable to an allergic reaction in the event of subsequent re-exposure to the allergen. At that point, there is cross-linkage between the peanut allergen and the cell-bound IgE that results in degranulation of preformed inflammatory mediators like histamine, prostaglandins and leukotrienes.
The cells also produce interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-13, cytokines, and chemokines, which results in the recruitment of other inflammatory cells. Allergic symptoms and anaphylaxis are the result of the chemical reactions that occur.4
An allergic reaction to peanuts can present in a multitude of ways, ranging from a mild reaction to fatal anaphylactic shock. These reactions develop rapidly upon exposure to the allergen and are notorious for their severity.
In a study of children who were allergic to (either is only used to compare two things; people commonly use it incorrectly!) milk, eggs or peanuts, hypersensitivity reactions to peanuts were the most severe. Severe reactions were reported in 20.4% of children, while similar reactions in response to milk and eggs were reported as 9.1% and 11.4%, respectively. Citation?
These results are supported in another study showing that peanut allergen is disproportionately implicated as a trigger of severe reactions among those who are affected. The humoral immune response to peanut allergens in susceptible patients is more strongly IgE biased compared to the immune response to milk allergens, against which atopic patients tend to make both IgE and IgG.7
Hypersensitivity reactions to peanuts commonly involve multiple organ systems, resulting in varied presentation. A reaction can present with cutaneous, respiratory, gastrointestinal, ocular and/or nasal manifestations. A cutaneous eruption often involves the skin or mucus membranes, and includes erythema, hives, pruritus and/or edema.6 Respiratory manifestations are often present and can be severe, presenting with chest tightness, wheezing, coughing and intercostal retractions. Asthma and allergic rhinitis can also be exacerbated by this allergy, but are not true manifestations of the peanut allergy itself.6
Gastrointestinal characteristics include vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal discomfort. Nasal manifestations can appear as rhinorrhea, sneezing or nasal pruritus, and ocular manifestations occur as conjunctival erythema, tearing and pruritus.
Anaphylaxis, the most severe reaction, can occur within seconds to minutes of peanut exposure or ingestion. This type of reaction can lead to massive vasodilation, decreased organ perfusion and death. Anaphylactic shock can affect multiple organ systems, including cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, ocular, nasal, respiratory, cutaneous and neurologic function. The reaction can be fatal, and requires immediate intervention.
Hypersensitivity reactions can present in various combinations and can be manifested differently from patient to patient.2,4
The first step in the diagnosis of a peanut allergy is to identify the peanut as the cause of the allergic reaction. This can be accomplished through a detailed history and physical exam.
The next step is detection of peanut-specific IgE by skin prick test or in vitro assays. Skin prick tests are performed with commercially available peanut extract and are a convenient, inexpensive and rapidly interpretable test. They are also a safe test, with serious adverse effects being extremely rare and no reported fatalities.
Alternately, in vitro testing is available through a variety of assays, and can be useful in patients who cannot stop taking antihistamines, which is required prior to skin testing. However, they are more expensive, results are delayed and the results must be processed through an approved laboratory.
Finally, the gold standard for confirming a peanut allergy is a double-blind, placebo-controlled peanut food challenge in which the patient ingests incremental portions of peanut proteins or placebo at 15- to 30-minute intervals with documentation of signs and symptoms prior to each dose. The challenge is stopped and treatment is provided immediately if a reaction develops. This test is definitive; however, it is time consuming, requires close medical supervision and carries the risk of a severe allergic reaction.4
No cure for peanut allergy has been developed. Therefore, strict avoidance and preparedness for accidental exposure is the cornerstone of management.1,6
Primary management involves allergen avoidance to prevent the development of hypersensitivity reactions and the availability of self-injectable epinephrine for treatment of severe reactions secondary to accidental exposure.2 There are differing opinions about whether children with peanut allergies should be advised to remove all nuts from their diets, irrespective of allergy testing results, in order to avoid accidental cross-contamination and/or the possibility of developing new allergies.
In a study by Ball et al, none of the patients with negative skin test results reacted on oral tree nut challenge. Alternately, about 31% of patients with positive skin tests to tree nuts reacted on oral challenge with tree nuts. The study results suggest that children who are allergic to peanuts and have negative allergy tests to tree nuts may have no co-existing allergy.8 In patients with positive skin tests to tree nuts, oral challenges may clarify the actual clinical allergy status and reduce anxiety and minimize dietary restrictions. Because the diagnosis of food allergies can impose significant psychological burdens on children and their families, rather than increasing restriction, patients should be well educated on the specifics of their diagnosis and necessary management.8
The second area of peanut allergy management is the treatment of acute IgE-mediated reactions due accidental exposure. The amount of peanut protein necessary to cause an allergic reaction may be small. Cross-contamination of food and trace amounts of peanut proteins make strict peanut avoidance extremely difficult.1 For children with peanut allergy, the annual incidence rate of accidental exposure is 12.5%. Adolescents and children with more recent diagnosis are at the greatest risk. Many accidental exposures occur in patients' homes and in peanut-free facilities, indicating the importance of vigilance, even in environments that are considered "safe" and controlled.1
Children with peanut allergies and their families should also be taught to recognize the early signs of an allergic reaction.4 Additionally, they should be educated about carrying and properly administering self-injectable epinephrine.
Early injection of epinephrine decreases the risk of fatal outcomes and biphasic reactions, which can occur 1 to 8 hours after the onset of symptoms.4 Anaphylactic reactions should be treated immediately with intramuscular epinephrine injected into the mid-outer aspect of the thigh, and then transported to a medical facility for further treatment.2 Upon arrival, the patient should be placed in the supine position with the lower extremities elevated. If the patient is dyspneic or vomiting, he or she should be placed in the semi-recumbent position with lower extremities elevated. Supplemental oxygen via facemask should be provided, as well as volume resuscitation with intravenous fluids.9 Systemic corticosteroids and antihistamines can be used, as needed.
Up to 30% of anaphylactic reactions have a biphasic course, so patients should be observed for 4 to 8 hours after the initial onset of symptoms. Along with a prescription for a renewed epinephrine auto injector, it is customary for patients to be given a 3-day course of oral prednisone and an antihistamine after they are treated and discharged.4
Curative Treatment
The potential for a curative treatment option for peanut allergies is being researched. Oral immunotherapy is under investigation, but not currently approved.1
Oral and traditional injection immunotherapy are not favored for peanut allergy because of a high incidence of serious side effects though there have been a few documented cases of successfully achieved tolerance as a result of these therapies, the high rate of adverse reactions make oral and injection therapy unacceptable for routine clinical use.4
A Cochrane review by Nurmatov et al found one small randomized clinical trial that showed desensitization was achieved in children who underwent oral immunotherapy. At the same time, a significant risk of adverse effects exists, although the majority were mild. Due to adverse effects and the lack of evidence supporting long-term benefits, allergen-specific oral immunotherapy cannot be recommended as a treatment for management of patients with IgE-mediated peanut allergy.10
This will remain true until larger trials are conducted to investigate the acceptability, long-term effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of safer treatment regimens.10
Patient & Caregiver Education
The thought of a fatal anaphylactic reaction is frightening to children and their parents and can cause severe worry and anxiety. To ease these fears and ensure the safety of children with allergies, education is imperative.
Furthermore, in attempt to ease worry and maintain a safe environment for children with peanut allergy, many schools, day camps and childcare institutions are declaring themselves "peanut free."
Patients, parents and childcare workers need to be educated about reading food labels and asking about ingredients that may contain traces of peanut proteins.1 Education should include visual identification of peanuts and tree nuts, as well.11 Recognizing and avoiding food containing nuts is the key strategy to self-management of a peanut allergy.2
Additionally, patients should be counseled about accidental exposure due to trace amounts of nuts in "safe" foods and hidden ingredients in manufactured food that may contain nuts. It is imperative to educate patients and their caregivers immediately after diagnosis and during adolescence about how to best prevent an allergic reaction, since the greatest risk of accidental exposure is during those times.1
It is important for school personnel to be notified about a child's allergy and to practice strict adherence to peanut-free environment policies. Furthermore, schools and childcare facilities should implement standard protocols to be followed in the event of an allergic reaction.
Depending on the severity of the patient's allergy, it may be advisable for a child to wear a MedicAlert bracelet, which can alert others of the allergy in the event of an emergency.4 All personnel should also be educated on how to use injectable epinephrine.
Finally, even in institutions that consider themselves "peanut-free," students and school personnel must remain cautious because many incidents of inadvertent exposure have been reported in such environments.1

I've just watched it and i'm totally conviced that this is the style in which The War of the Worlds should be made. Instead of 100 cgi/cartoon ala Shrek etc etc, this is a perfect blend of real filming and great cgi, which bring excellently to life an era of London that would fit perfectly with TWOTW. If the selection of actors, screenpley etc were right, then it would, in my opinion, be perfect.
For those of you have seen the Holmes movie, what do you think? do you agree? If you haven't seen it yet have a look and see if you share my view.
If i'm sat in a couple of years watching TWOTW movie, to this quality and style, i will be a VERY happy man.
I LOVE the new Sherlock movie (not so new now of course!), but yes, it's look among other aspects, it's a great flick.
This concept for a WOTW film...? Maybe. Have you seen the snippets of the new Tintin movie? It shows just how good CGI can be. I'm still keen on seeing a CGI film...but any would be good!
I agree with you KiwiMike, modern CGI techniques are more than capable of delivering and excellent looking movie. I all honesty, the standards of CGI available have probably been good enough for some years now(even as far back as the original Shrek movie, Polar Express and films like that), and they keep getting better all the time. I'll be more than happy either way!!

text: This is my 1st hero team I created when I was 12. I dont remember the rest of the team but there were 2 more. The guy with the goggles(obvious that I like cyclops) was supposed to be more of a rip off of snake eyes. His name is NightStrike and everyone had a ninja on the team back in the day. The leader was my tank character ShatterStorm. He is 3rd in line for the throne of a distant planet. His father made him serve in the galactic police. And the last guy is WildSide. He is an energy being that focuses that energy thru his suit. Ocean was our universe back then. Magna Force protected the earth. Beta II protected earth from space. Masked Avenger and Venger were protectors of I always thought Peoria LOL,,,,,And Colonel Awesome led the Galactic police. The thing about Beta II I only drew 4 issues and 1 super graphic novel for them. But I put the most thought,,,well for a 12 yr old into them. I had the base drawn out,,,Marvel was doing blue print comics for their teams at that time,,, I fleshed out the characters more than Venger,,,,but I didnt draw them alot because once I got older I realized that my characters looked too much like mainstream comics and I put them on the shelf,,,,HMMM maybe I bring them out Again,,,,Holla back Kevin I hope ya DIGZZZZ IT

A BOY of 12 killed his six-month-old baby brother by stabbing him 17 times and cutting off his left hand as he lay in his cot, a court heard yesterday.
The boy later walked into a police station, produced a kitchen knife and said he had stabbed his brother, Roderick Denyer, QC, prosecuting, told Bristol Crown Court. Asked why he had done it, the boy replied: "I want to be with my mother."
The boy's mother was unaware of the baby's death until police arrived at her house in Withywood, Bristol. She had been dozing downstairs on the sofa with one of her other children at the time of the killing. The boy denied murder but the Crown accepted his plea of guilty to manslaughter due to diminished responsibility. The case was adjourned for further psychiatric reports before sentence.
Mr Denyer told the court that the boy was suffering from severe psychiatric disorders and had suffered a "psychotic shift" at the time of the killing. The boy, who sat with a social worker and solicitors in the main court area rather than the dock, made no sound during the proceedings. His mother left the court in tears as details of the baby's death were read out.
Lady Kennedy, QC, defending, said: "This is clearly a tragic and shocking case. It was clear that this was not a cold act of malevolence." She said the boy was brought up "in circumstances of serious depravation and at a time when clearly he was mentally ill".
The boy's mother had also been neglected by her own parents. Her mentally ill father had abused his daughter and his other children. The boy's mother was also sexually abused while in care, and her partners later went on to abuse both her and her children. The family was permanently on the move. The boy had been to seven schools, contributing to a lack of stability and security.
He suffered from Asperger Syndrome, which led to impaired social and communication skills. Mr Justice Toulson said that the case raised questions about the suitability of the present legal system for trying children, particularly those with a mental illness.

Last Decoded VIN
how to find vin number:
How Do I Find the VIN? - AutoCheck
AutoCheck shows you how to find the VIN on your vehicle.In case your targets cover purchasing a second-hand Kenworth and you are busy browsing for pre-owned motor vehicle safety guides on webpages, you could have learnt on a few that pre-owned truck or motorcyle shoppers should set on with VIN number search procedure. None the less, that will be really urgent to realize what vehicle history record covers and what specific kind of issues this helps avoid. To the best of my knowledge, there will be a large number of incidents involving marketers shaking off recreational vehicles or cars, motorbikes with a bunch of massive challenges before being released to the market to uninformed prey and you won't discover real facts without purchasing the VIN history listing. Resembling DNA sequence, a given vehicle identification number is inalterable for the full of the vehicle's lifespan, embodying the integrate crucial technical specifications, say the manufacturer's name, country anchor, such as, RA-RE United Arab Emirates, the model, for instance, Kawasaki LE650, and also more of technical information, e.g, drive type. About 100% of all taking place when the motor vehicle is being utilized, for example, sustaining right side impact, emerging in court orders, Non-Repairable title, typically even secondary servicing performed, as an example, windshield washer fluid topped up or merely the tagging "the motor car serviced" stays forever tacked to the vehicle identification number.

A Perfect Play To Stay And Would Highly Recommend.
Everything was ready for my arrival, the staff were friendly and helpful and I was able to settle in without any fuss.
The room, although a "single," was of a good size with a functioning T.V. and tea/coffee facilities and a nice, comfortable bed with a quality duvet and pillows. The room also had an ample size shower room. In the morning I was able to have breakfast in a very well decorated bar area overlooking the sea, with the option of eating outside had the weather been decent. The staff, again, were cheerful, helpful, without being intrusive and produced tea/coffee and a (very nicely) cooked breakfast, which was not so big that it was a struggle to eat it all, an issue I've had with some places. All in all, I'd describe it as almost the perfect stay and I'd highly recommend it to anyone. It's a "Gay" Hotel, but evidently welcomes straight customers too, all IMO, a sign that we're living in a better world!

General points
The following are REALLY minor points considering its having been such a nice place to stay: I was in 401 and part of the floor (under the window) and the floor immediately outside the door were terrifically creaky.
The shower is amazingly tiny. Being skinny it was hardly a problem, though bending over to pick up the shampoo etc wasn't possible. Anyone even a bit bulkier than me just couldn't have coped, Ho Ho. I found neither of these really bothered me at all but well might others; not that I can see how the shower could be made bigger anyway. REALLY comfy bed and loads of hot water.
Breakfast couldn't have been better, or indeed bigger ; I couldn't finish it. Staff were all friendly and good-humoured.
Best value I've had in a long time.

Great 2 day stay here
Hotel cannot be faulted clean, good food has its own night club and bar too 4am great location 5 minutes from pier, staff very good and friendly the only downside is this is predominately a gay hotel which is not a problem but some of the guests stare at you as if your intruding by being straight and staying here, apart from that would absolutely recommend this hotel.
We had a brilliant time during out stay, hotel was perfectly clean, the breakfast was absolutely amazing!.
The staff where so nice and friendly. We will definitely come back here soon.

Ideal location for beach and city centre. Good value for money.
I was on a business trip and just required a single room for 1 night.
It was small but had all I needed and even had a sea view. I had to leave before breakfast was served so can not comment on that.

Now, I've done quite a lot of things in my life already that I'm really proud of. I've traveled a lot, I've lived in another country, I own my own home (even if it is currently for sale!), I've embraced body acceptance, and I've fallen in love. But, there is still a lot of things I haven't done. And I think I should get them crossed off!
Some of these things are purchases of things I've wanted for ages, some of them are life changing, and some of them are just because I want to do them. So, here goes
- Marry my Prince - Fairly obvious one.
- Buy our new house - We are in the process of making this happen right now!
- Get a puppy - Once we get our new house, we will be getting a miniature Dachshund
- Get my flamingo tattoos - These have been on my list for ages. I'm going to start saving to get them over the next 14 months
- Take Jesse to London - Jesse has never been overseas. And he needs to meet my London family, and I want to show him all my favourite places.
- Host a 3 course dinner party - I've never lived in a house with a dining room. Or a kitchen big enough to do this.
- Pay for someone else's meal - I've always wanted to pay for the car behind me at a drive through, or something, and I never have. I'm going to do this!
- Start doing Yoga regularly - I am doing it so occasionally and I so enjoy it. I want to start doing it every day.
- See at least 5 bands live, that I haven't seen before - I'm so excited for this one. I have 2 coming up within the next two months. Two Gallants and Bruce Springsteen.
- Read 15 new books - I'm already underway with this one. I'm on my third new book.
- Go on a Hot Air balloon ride - Always wanted to do this!
- Go to a cake decorating class - Always wanted to do this too!
- Start saving - self explanatory
- Sew a simple skirt - I have always played around with sewing, but never really done anything serious. I want to learn to make a simple skirt.
- Plan an awesome 30th part for me and Jesse - Jesse and I are born 6 days apart. So, I think it's only fair we have a rocking 30th birthday party. I'm going to make it happen. I haven't mentioned this to Jesse yet, but I'm sure he'll be cool with it.
- Swim with the sharks at AQWA - Why not?
- Drink water from a waterfall - My little bro suggested this. He said he did it, and it was amazing.
- Sleep outside - I have never slept outside.
- Eat at Restaurant Amuse - This has been on my list for at least the past 5 years. Gotta make it happen. Maybe an anniversary dinner?
- Own a pair of Litas - Always wanted a pair, going to buy a pair!
- Feed a giraffe - You can do this at Perth Zoo now! I'm so excited!
- Become a Zoo friend - Also wanted this for ages. The Zoo is one of my favourite places.
- Ride on a motorbike - I used to want my bike license when I was younger. I don't anymore, but I still want to ride on one. Luckily one of Jesse's friends has said she will take me out on hers.
- Go and eat pancakes somewhere at 2am - I've always wanted to do this too! I've eaten a fair few things at this time of the morning, but for some reason, never pancakes.
- Make a creme brulee - I have the knowledge, and the tools, I've just never done it. Maybe I can make this the dessert course of my 3 course dinner party?
- Use my slow cooker once a week for 2 months - I've got so many recipes I'm dying to try in my slow cooker.
- Upgrade my iPad to an iPad mini - I have an iPad 1. And it's pretty much obsolete now, and it keeps crashing. Time for an upgrade!
- Create a budget and stick to it - I'm the queen of budgeting. I'm great at it actually. I"m terrible at sticking to it. Once the houses are settled, Jesse and I will be budgeters, and good ones!
- Make a baked lemon tart - One of mine and Jesse's favourite things. Never made one. Going to make one.
- Own a pair of pink cowboy boots - Always wanted a pair. Going to own a pair.
So, that's my list. I'll update it every now and again, and keep track of my progress.
Oh, and if anyone wants to gift me any of these things, I won't say no! haha :)

Light them with the glow,
For when the darkness disappears
Then true peace you'll know.
* * *
There is one thing that all souls crave
The one thing that your life will save
It's love that keeps you ever striving
Keeps you pushing, trying, driving
Without the fullness in your heart
It's hard most anything to start
For love's the thing that fills your cup
Gives you energy to get up
When all you want to do is sleep
When in the darkness you do weep
Why do you have to hunger so?
There's not a place that you can go
That love's not there
Perhaps you're not aware
Some keep it hidden deep inside
When all they have to do is open up their heart
If they would learn love not to hide
Then living life would truly start
It's easier to hate than love
When someone does you wrong
But cast aside your need to strike
Put down the padded glove
Send forgiveness although it's hard
The payback comes in spades
When you can love instead of hate
No need for cutting blades
Oh, how the world would surely change
If all could heed these truths
When love is all you choose to see
When you shout it from the roofs.
A soothing salve, a healing balm
When love's your base, your life is calm.
* * *
See your fear and cast it out
Let not hate roll about and harm you
Let us arm you with love.
The only tool you'll ever need
To succeed.

After the rather good release that was The Ninth Doctor Chronicles, Big Finish have released, somewhat unsurprisingly The Tenth Doctor Chronicles, four stories featuring the Tenth Doctor, played by Jake Dudman, and one of the Tenth Doctor's companions. Today, I'll be reviewing the first story in the set, The Taste of Death by Helen Goldwyn.
The Doctor and Rose sample the high-life on resort planet MXQ1, run by the famous Bluestone brothers. It has everything: exotic beaches, luxury accommodation and extravagant dining. Something's cooking in the kitchen, and it's to die for…
It's a good idea to start this story, and by extension, this box set, by giving us a glimpse of Jake Dudman's characterisation of the Tenth Doctor, as, within the first four words, you could easily be bamboozled. Dudman does an absolute stellar job of portraying the Tenth Doctor, and this is within the first fifteen seconds of the release. Luckily, the narration which follows (which Dudman also reads) is in Dudman's "natural" voice, and is distinguishable enough to differentiate between the two.
We quickly learn that the Doctor has brought Rose to MXQ1 for a mini-break, and it's obvious that this care-free excursion to paradise for the Doctor and Rose won't last for too long. The story is called The Taste of Death, after all.
The Doctor and Rose quickly become enamoured by the amazing food that's on display, and it appears that Rose becomes absolutely enthralled with a particular dish; a dish that every guest seems to be almost hypnotised by, every guest, bar the Doctor, is enamoured with constantly eating this particular meal. Whatever it may be.
Goldwyn's script, especially the parts which are narration, are so brilliantly written, her descriptions are so well crafted that my mind's eye had a field day conjuring up the scenes, which were all elevated by the brilliant sound design.
I absolutely adore the fact that, besides the facts that are spelt out to us, within the first half of the story, I'm none the wiser as to what the nefarious nature of the story is. There's something about the food and the Bluestone Brothers, but besides that, I'm in the dark. I love being in the dark, it gives me a nice surprise, and I love being surprised.
During the second half of the story, we learn more about the Bluestone's reign of MXQ1 as a planet. It appears that their success is due to underpaying the staff of the planet. Then there's a word; a single word, a word that changes everything in an instant.
Once the Doctor realises who, or what, the Bluestone brothers really are, things really kick into action. The Doctor and Rose are quickly reunited, and the facade of the Bluestones comes to an end. It's something Miss Tyler is all too familiar with, and she's not impressed at all.
The final half of the tale becomes incredibly gruesome incredibly quickly, and I love it. It appears to be darker than the show was allowed to be in Series 2, yet the story itself feels extremely genuine to the era. The idea of a black market for food, which just so happens to be that of other species feels like something that RTD himself would have written, if given the chance. It's a bit like Meat from Torchwood, albeit with a softer approach to the subject matter.
I have to admit, I'm surprised by the way that The Taste of Death ended, I often say that the endings in Big Finish stories are seemingly rushed, but the last ten minutes were absolutely divine. It's not the most complex story by any means, but not every Doctor Who story needs to be. The payoff of The Taste of Death was really satisfactory, and even a teensy bit unconventional. I thought every problem in cooking could be solved with a little bit of salt… and vinegar. This time, I was happy to be proven wrong.
Overall, The Taste of Death is a great start to The Tenth Doctor Chronicles, and Jacob Dudman has to be congratulated on his performance, both as the Tenth Doctor, and as the narrator. Dudman, paired with Helen Goldwyn's script, are a delight to the ears, and the narration especially is stellar in this release. If you loved Series 2 of Doctor Who, then I implore you to listen to this tale.
Should you want to purchase The Tenth Doctor Chronicles, it's currently available from Big Finish here for £23 on CD or £20 for a digital download for a limited time.

While standard auto loans only carry default danger, leasing adds residual threat. Leases do not have to default to change into a problem; they will change into an issue at maturity. A lot of the outstanding leases have been securitized bringing us again to 2007 levels. The appetite for auto related ABS makes good sense since leases have not produced unfavorable fairness for years. This adds a layer of complexity that must be considered.
Most demand has a certain quantity of predictability to it, even when it modifications seasonally. What we need to do is clean that demand over the week (I'll use the week for the purposes of this illustration, but relying on how briskly moving your industry is it's possible you'll need to take a look at each day or month-to-month). So for instance if your common demand is typically 200 items on Monday, one hundred Tuesday, 50 on Wednesday and Thursday and at last one hundred on the Friday then your average every day demand is going to be one hundred and you will have to have one hundred models of completed items in stock initially of the week to meet demand.
Indeed, the examine of media and their results now appears intrinsically historic primarily because of McLuhan (and his mentor Innis), and the furthering of that strategy in Media Ecology. Even before the Internet, back within the Seventies, most graduate applications that studied communications and media were pointed towards the longer term. Interactive tv, telecom satellites, neighborhood cable, and all that was glowing and new had been the buzzwords. McLuhan's global village" had already rooted that future in millennia of human constructions and attitudes, all of which were truthful recreation for the scholars of Media Ecology.

An examination of advantages and challenges associated with the integration of BIM in Architecture Design Studio. The study includes case studies of best practices nationwide including interviews with select educators.
Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) are powerful enablers. Embedded (and coupled) with increasingly robust parametric tools, analysis instruments and visualization capacities, BIM is a disruptive technology that enables the management of greater complexity, facilitates predictive analysis, promotes integrated thinking and collaboration, and bridges a variety of previously discreet building industry sectors. This project posed the question, "how can it be made most effective in teaching the next generation of architectural designers?"
Aimed at proposing the most effective ways of teaching design in relationship to BIM, this project sorts through the divergent objectives between practice and education to identify strategic alignments between teaching applications, contemporary workflows and design skills. It points out that Architectural design/production workflows and the most effective pedagogical methods to teach them are not the same. BIM enhanced workflows are optimized to develop and actualize design from the earliest stages of conceptualizing bulk and mass to the latter stages of construction (and beyond) enhanced by information-‐rich, integrated construction documents and fabrication files. While the principle of full-‐spectrum, cross-‐disciplinary integration is key and should be introduced in schools, the quantity and fidelity of variables and information can quickly overwhelm the inexperienced designer's agency to think hierarchically (establish values associated with one variable vs. another) and make decisions. Furthermore, the ever-‐increasing number of computationally automized tasks suppresses students' exposure to (and awareness of) fundamentals underlying background operations. This project (forwards) a set of principles important to design teaching and suggests how BIM can best (and should) be taught in relationship to them, first principles, and the development of those aptitudes and skills needed for effective design practice.
As a platform BIM can open an understanding of workflow that is inclusive, integrated, moves from 3D to 2D, is associative (parametric in relationship to information) and relates to analysis and predictive modeling, all of which are crucial to 21st century practice, but how can students be taught to understand, internalize and integrate the underlying design principles in a contemporary design workflow? Tools taught and well integrated at the right time have capacity to assist in the development of the designer. At the wrong time that same tool may do just the opposite. But we know that as the tool changes, so do the process and the outcomes. One key to this conundrum is developing a balance of when to teach the tools separately, based on their underlying assumptions, structure, biases and potential and when to integrate them. In either case, how to maintain a critical perspective of their potential and limitations is essential to guard against a dulling of the mind and provoke progressive thinking and decision-‐making -‐ design.
Designing the design pedagogy must be linked to the tools that are employed, but should not be beholden to them. Through Revit and its associated applications students can BOTH be made aware of its capacities (expanded integrations, embedded information, associative parametrics, predictive analytics) AND the potential of these transformational tools to stimulate and inform creative outcomes. An examination of best practices across schools engaging Revit in the curriculum provided insights into enabling and limiting factors.
Two underlying assumptions formed the basis of the work:
Key Images:
Whether, where and how these two intersect was the question and subject of the investigation. The venn diagram [fig. 1]– suggests that there are three effective Design and/or BIM learning environments; 1) "Design", independent of BIM as we know it, 2) BIM independent of "design" and 3) the two together. Were the circles collapsed into one we would have a fully integrated model, fully separated a 'dis'-‐integrated model and as shown in the diagram a hybrid.
Building more constructive relationships between the Architect, Engineer(s) and Constructor is enormously important. The tool promises significant benefits in practice and has great promise to do the same creating a shared environment for engineering and architecture students. The collaborative virtual environment created by the integrated or overlapped model, particularly when exercised across disciplines, promises to sharpen communications, collaboration and integration. The different ways of seeing afforded through Revit offer significant possibility for the individual design student and the team. While these potentials are significant the following concerns – with respect to the un-‐mastered student arose.
01 The learning curve (of the tool) was not insignificant, but more significantly it became clear that Revit introduced a number of biases that were / are difficult to overcome, especially if one is in the learning process and unaware of what they do not know. To be specific, the bias toward levels, horizontal surfaces and Euclidean geometry presume (and favor) relatively conventional building types – floor plates wrapped in a skin. This is not to suggest that the application will not work outside those modalities, but it is not trivial to someone who is not yet a mature designer, does not know the software well and who is being encouraged to think from first principles.
02 Second is the matter of speed and commitment. Sketching, diagraming, "mocking-‐up", testing and iteration are key rhythms in the design process for mature designers who understand the need to pass through a number of experiments and the 'ugly stage' in order to see, evaluate, and adjust one's work. Tools that lower the threshold of commitment (input to output ratio) can increase the degree of objectivity and vulnerability even mature designers assume in relation to their work – and much more so with students. While parametrics promise enormous benefits in this area – BIM's high input to output ratio (on the front end of a project) demands substantial commitment that tends to consume both time and will to objectively evaluate and iterate. Over reliance on Revit in a design education setting, particularly for those who have not mastered it can not only consume limited time available for the design (learning) process but can also diminish willingness to iterate, be objective, analyze, critique and go back. This is not to say that it shouldn't be employed – or to suggest that it does not offer tremendous potential and benefits to the design and production process – but the when and the how are questions that we will be addressing.
03 Third is the problem of presets. Parametric elements and libraries that presume for the student what walls, stairs, windows or doors are bypass the pedagogically necessary step of designing from first principles in order to learn the nature of those elements.
The question of when and how BIM is integrated into the curriculum must be tied to first principles (of design teaching design) including:
The challenges not withstanding, Building Information Modeling as a learning tool (not merely a tool to be learned) performs exceptionally well in enabling several understandings including:
It can be employed as the glue that not only binds individuals in a cooperative enterprise, but can do so across disciplines and distance, expanding an awareness of the many related disciplines and enlarging the reach of the school and student. Engaging the parametric possibilities can enhance the ease and speed with which iteration and associated critical feedback provides intelligence and objectivity both with respect to geometric possibilities and their performance(s). The power of integrated information management is potentially not unlike the shift from two to three-‐dimensional tools in opening up possibilities and the integration of analysis tools, early in the design process leads to a more robust understanding of performance based design and the consequences of one's work.
BIM can and should be taught with intentionality in a combination of ways that build a consciousness of its (like any tool's) values, biases and challenges and when so employed has great potential as an assistant teaching technology.

As you all know Pi day is on the third of March. Pi is the ratio between a diameter and the circumference of a circle. It is an irrational number and so it never ends. So all the students at Royds Hall feel connected to Pi we asked every student to own and decorate a digit. This has created an amazing display on the Maths floor and can be added to by all new students at this school. Have you found your digit yet?
Royds Hall has a new record for the most digits of Pi recited from memory. Uzair Abbas smashed his own record from last year of Pi to 300 decimal places to a whopping 650 decimal places! If you need revision tips, ask Uzair! Martha Hughes was the best in Year 9 and Faris Ali recited the most digits in Year 11. Well done all of you.
The UKMT Intermediate stage was sat in February. Students from Year 9, 10 and 11 all sat the same paper. Thirty two students gained certificates. Jake Marchington of Year 9 gained Gold and his efforts saw him through to the next stage of Grey Kangaroo! Uzair Abbas of Year 10 also got Gold and was the highest scoring student in the school. Uzair's efforts saw him into a Hamilton round, where he sat a two hour challenge consisting of six tasks.
Excellent effort by all! Well done.

Do you ever have those kind of days when you wake up and you feel you do not have enough strength to take on the world?
On these days you feel you just want to turn over in your bed and go back to sleep. You do not have the energy to take on that big project that is pressing or you have a fear of opening the mail just in case there is a big bill to pay that you forgot about.
Well, today I think I'm having one of those days. It is a weird feeling but you go to bed thinking you can take on the world and you wake up feeling like a complete loser! Nothing has happened in between, just a rush of thoughts going through your head that conjure up the feelings of being overwhelmed.
Since starting the journey to becoming a church planter, I have been amazed at how many battles I have had to fight. Whether inner battles or battles with other people. However, I feel like God has given me an injection of some extra strength faith. I have had the feelings that I can take on any mountain that maybe in my way. I think I am getting a glimpse of what the little shepherd boy David felt when he faced the giant Goliath. I think inside of him he must have said, 'Bring it on!' I can relate!
So it is on days like these when no obstacle has been put in my way, no big huge giant has tried to fight me, not even a bill has come in the mail that I can't pay, in which I realize my humanity. There is no reason for me to feel overwhelmed yet I do. There is no reason for me wanting to bury my head in the sand, yet I do and there is no reason to feel weak, yet I do!
I think God allows days like this so we realize who we really are. We are just insignificant people who have been given the priviledge to serve and love a GREAT God. It's days like these that I realize I can not walk this journey alone, I can not take on a giant alone, I can not conquer a mountain alone. It's days like these that I realize I am not equipped for the challenges ahead, but I know a friend that sticks closer than a brother who is equipped and stands by me when the biggest mountains or the biggest giants are right in front of me.
My prayer today is the message found in Proverbs 3:5-6. 'Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding, but in all your ways acknowledge him and he will make your paths straight.'

Are Silver Prices Going Up in 2018?
Are silver prices going up in 2018 after lackluster gains last year? Learn what experts think, and then take our poll to let us know where you stand.
Are silver prices going up? That's the big question silver investors want answers to.
So far in 2018, prices have oscillated between about $15.70 and $17.55 per ounce. Experts are not necessarily surprised, but of course many are hoping for a better performance before the year ends.
Read on to learn about three factors that could affect silver prices this year, and to see what price predictions key firms have made. Then take our poll to let us know where you think prices are headed.
1. Geopolitical issues
Like gold, silver prices often increase when geopolitical issues are at play. When Donald Trump won the US presidential election in late 2016, many believed safe-haven demand for precious metals would spur higher silver and gold prices. "Trump is … a source of instability, which markets don't like, so this is very bullish for safe-haven assets," said Lobo Tiggre, CEO of the Independent Speculator, in 2017.
However, that instability hasn't yet translated into higher silver prices. Will that happen in 2018? It's possible. Trump continues to cause concern, having formerly been described as "flirting" with war with North Korea, and now clashing with China and Russia. The president is locked in a trade war with the Asian nation, with both the US and China imposing tariffs on each other.
So far this has hit prices for many metals, including silver, which was down over 5 percent year-to-date as of mid-July. This runs contrary to conventional wisdom that political unrest favors safe-haven assets. Investors will have to see if this trend changes as these and other geopolitical issues continue to develop.
2. Interest rates
In general, higher interest rates tend to put pressure on non-interest-bearing assets like gold and silver; conversely, when interest rates are lower, precious metals tend to perform better. However, last year there were three rate hikes, and gold prices rose instead of falling, while silver was relatively flat.
The US Federal Reserve has raised rates on the back of an economy that has been "chugging along," but it could slow the pace of rate increases if there is a change. Currently there is no consensus on how many hikes there will be in 2018, although the central bank is expected to keep raising rates. Indeed another rate hike happened again in June, making it the seventh in the past three years.
It's too soon to tell if more hikes are in store, but it's worth noting that precious metals prices could rise even if rates continue to increase. According to Investopedia, despite the widely held belief that there is a negative correlation between rates and precious metals prices, "a long-term review of the respective paths and trends of interest rates and gold prices reveals that no such relationship actually exists."
3. Price manipulation
No silver price discussion would be complete without a mention of price manipulation. Some silver market watchers believe that the reason prices have seen little momentum in recent years is that a small group of institutions has been shorting silver. Ed Steer of Gold and Silver Digest and the Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee has explained the idea in the past, noting that JPMorgan (NYSE:JPM) and a handful of others are involved.
There is much debate about this concept, and some say that it's unfounded or imaginary. That said, JPMorgan has been taken to court before over manipulation allegations — charges against the firm were dismissed in 2014 and again in 2016, although the 2016 charges have since been appealed. The issue is complex, and it would perhaps be wise to watch for further developments moving forward.
Analyst forecasts for silver prices
Are silver prices going up in 2018? Panelists polled by FocusEconomics see prices increasing in 2018, but not by a lot. As a whole, they expect prices to average $17.50 this year, which is higher than the metal's current level but still far from what silver investors have been hoping and waiting for. Here's a list of the average 2018 silver predictions given by some of the respondents:
- Capital Economics — $16.30 per ounce
- CIBC — $18.10 per ounce
- Deutsche Bank (NYSE:DB) — $17.60 per ounce
- JPMorgan — $18.70 per ounce
- RBC Capital Markets — $19.40 per ounce
- Standard Chartered (LSE:STAN) — $18.90 per ounce
Of course, some experts are much more bullish. For example, Keith Neumeyer, president and CEO of First Majestic Silver (TSX:FR,NYSE:AG), recently said he believes we'll see silver prices rise to $130.
Alas, we have no crystal ball here, and many of the educated guesses out there are just that. While most markets watchers say it's only a matter of time before silver prices rise, how long that will be is nearly impossible to tell. But keep an eye out and see what happens in terms of the three factors mentioned above. With geopolitical factors, interest rates, manipulation and myriad other factors in play, staying abreast of these topics can determine your investment strategy moving forward.
Also keep in mind that while fortune favors the bold, it also can favor patience, and precious metals tend to be part of a long-term portfolio.

For new investors, I see no better opportunity for incremental investing in the next 12 months than silver.

So if the silver price goes to six hundred dollars per oz. these banks who may be short paper silver could lose a lot of money. Except maybe Jp Morgan who is reported to have 650 million of silver. Now how did he do that while prices have been going down for 7 years?
The small investor would like to know what and who they know.

How could some of the banks keep selling silver on paper and not having the phscial
As someone has already stated….
Whilst people can still make more silver paper contracts, and seemingly as many as they like, the price will be stopped from rising.
What are people's estimates of the silver price should only the paper contracts exist where there is a proven existence of the physical silver to back up the paper.
my estimate would be three times where the price is now.
Being a small investor in silver I've been buying since 2013. Anyone following silver knows I've lost a lot of money. Since I don't like to lose money I'll NOT sell anytime in the near future. The silver lining in this cloud (if there is one) is silver is nearing the bottom and If I continue to invest when it does rise I could see some redemption with patience. I really don't see silver bottoming at 8 or 9 dollars and ounce and I don't see 48 dollars an ounce again. However the possibility exists and that is the cool part about stacking silver. It retains value and unlike gambling can always be redeemed.
I hope no one listened to laughable this article they would of lost money.
Trump is trying to stabilize the economy for one and he also got flirting with war wrong too. But he's trying to sell you something. The time to buy pm's was when Obama was making a mess of this country and others as well. He was a community organizer on PC not a leader this country needed. The Mid East a mess Isis was created and ran ranpid. Korea was flying rockets everywhere because no one took his lack to stand for America seriously.
Amen to that
Silver is extremely low in price compared to Gold. Around 80 to 1 (80 bars of silver for the cost of 1 bar of gold) So the gap is far too large so silver has to go up. It is the best time to buy silver and all this silver/gold on paper is worthless just like a banknote no longer pays out in precious metal. You give me your money and i promise it is worth this silver bar…errr there is no bar just a promise. Go and buy your own bar and no matter if it rises or falls you still have the bar in hand, and it will always have a value. Manipulation of just about everything goes on so get buying as it is a bargain buy today.
That's what I am doing as best I can…..

Wills FAQ
What is a Will and why do I need one?
Preparing a Will is essential. Leaving a clear guide of how you want your assets distributed by your chosen Executor/s is cost efficient and may avoid lengthy court battles over "who gets what". It's your opportunity to have your say in how your affairs are managed after you die.
A Will also provides you with the opportunity to name guardians for your children, establish a trust or donate to charity through an organisation such as the Queensland Community Foundation.
Are you aware that it is a free service to make a Will with the Public Trustee of Queensland?
Where should I keep my Will?
A Will should be kept in a safe place, i.e. safety deposit box, locked filing cabinet, together with your other personal papers. Making a Will with The Public Trustee means there is no risk of your Will being lost or destroyed because we keep the original in safe deposit at no charge. We have over one million Wills in safe storage in our atmospherically controlled Wills bunker.
How often should my Will be revised or updated?
Making or altering your Will is particularly important when life circumstances change. We recommend you review your Will every three to five years to ensure that it still reflects your wishes. For example, it may be necessary to change your Will if any of the following occur:
- Marriage or civil partnership
- Separation
- Divorce or termination of a civil partnership
- Enter into a de facto relationship
- Ending a de facto relationship
- Birth of children or grandchildren
- Death of your executor or a beneficiary
- Change in your financial circumstances
If I get married, divorced, enter or terminate a civil partnership or end a de facto relationship - does that affect my Will?
It is important to note that your Will is revoked or cancelled if you get married or enter a civil partnership (except for gifts to your husband, wife or civil partner or appointment of that person as executor), unless it is made in contemplation of marriage or the civil partnership. Divorce, termination of a civil partnership or the ending of a de facto relationship revokes any gift in the Will to the former spouse or appointment of the former spouse as executor, unless there is a contrary intention in the Will.
What does the Public Trustee charge to make a Will?
The Public Trustee offers a free, Will-making service to all Queenslanders who are aged 18 or over.
How do I make an appointment to make a Will or update my Will?
To make an appointment to have your Will made free of charge at the Public Trustee phone 1300 360 044 or you can also visit our website: www.pt.qld.gov.au
Assistance is available for people who are vision or hearing impaired or who need an interpreter. Under special circumstances our Will-makers may visit your home, nursing home or hospital.
You can also contact the Queensland Law Society to find out the location of your local solicitor.
Does the Public Trustee sell my property?
If the Public Trustee is Executor of your estate consultation is held with the beneficiaries to seek their instructions regarding the disposal of the property. Beneficiaries may take a transfer of the property or they may request the Public Trustee to auction the property.
The auction would be conducted by our qualified team of auctioneers and the reserve is set by the beneficiaries.
You can sign up to receive our property alerts and find out about properties for sale.

In the face of involuntary childlessness, grief and recovery
How am I going to live THIS life in THIS world?
It's one of the questions that has adhered itself to every aspect of my being since stopping fertility treatments three years ago. It's a question that has become only more throbbing as I make my way back out into the world and initiate my life rebuilding process. It's a question that is unavoidable. And how could it not be? My experiences trying to conceive, the physical absence of my children and our loss of parenthood colors everything.
I'm not alone in this. When one has come through and out of the wanting of parenthood in any way shape or form, finding themselves on the other side of their dream or pursuit or hard work without the desired children in tow, we are all in some version of a related boat.
Thoughts, feelings and instincts on this question percolate in our systems. We organically, if not subconsciously, become silent, unseen coping skill factories, working overtime to generate a new life that makes sense to us, a new social normal and perhaps most of all, self-preservation.
I was recently made more consciously aware of part of my process when I read Cathy's latest post, Are You Doing More Than Your Fair Share of Emotional Labor? over at Slow Swimmers and Fried Eggs (Thanks, Cathy!). Realizations rising to the surface were of course prompted by the writing and investigating of fellow infertility survivors because where else would they come from? There's no context out in the wider world acknowledging the plight forward for those of us who wanted children but couldn't have them, even most if not all infertility support groups are tone-deaf towards this journey.
