Fertile farmland, an evolving wine and microbrewery industry, and a bounty of seafood drawn from the Chesapeake Bay are the initial focus of two Norfolk, Virginia food feasts. What takes the experience beyond enjoying locally-sourced meals at the Crab Feast or the Harvest Feast is the knowledge experts share about the region's history, its relevance to the ingredients, and learning to eat like a native Virginian.
"Anyone can provide good food and drink, but what separates our feasts from others is the experiential factor," says Mallory O'Connell, director of operations/sales for Coastal Food Tours. She says expert crab pickers provide an historical overview of crabs available in the Hampton Roads area during crab season, which runs from April through October. "Then our crab pickers are at guests' side to explain which parts to eat and show how to remove the crab from the shell. If you're not from the area, you won't know how to do this."
Newspaper-lined tables laden with typical southern sides such as mac n' cheese and greens front the Chesapeake Bay outside of one of many large restaurants. In case of inclement weather, the 2-1/2 hour Crab Feast for up to 125 can be taken indoors.
White linen-covered tables in the middle of a green space surrounded by flowers and foliage provide a more upscale setting for the popular Harvest Feast, which can accommodate up to 125. Coastal Food Tours' favorite venue for the Harvest Feast is the Norfolk Botanical Garden, home to 30 distinctly themed gardens. In case of bad weather, the 4,000-sf Rose Garden Hall is available.
"The advantage of the Gardens is that attendees can listen to the speakers, dine or stroll the gardens," says O'Connell.
The Harvest Feast can run up to four hours, depending on options chosen. Virginia's acclaim for wine and microbreweries is growing. There are 228 wineries, 24 wine trails and more than 40 craft breweries in Virginia, many within an hour of Norfolk. Having a wine or brewmaster speak and conduct a tasting is one option. Having local farmers discuss their seasonal produce or having a chef onsite to preside over an interactive cooking lesson is another.
Coastal's knowledgeable onsite staff will readily answer questions about local history, from Native Americans to John Smith or Jamestown.
O'Connell says, "No two events are alike. They're all customized."

In another set of pictures from 'Malaika's Monday motivation' album, she shared a picture of herself 'trying to ace some backbends.' "Goals" and "superb" are some of the comments on the posts. Malaika's workout studio The Diva Yoga is in collaboration between her and Yoga enthusiast Sarvesh Shashi.
A glimpse of how much of a fitness freak Malaika Arora is.
Last week, Malaika was joined by actress Sara Ali Khan at the Pilates class. "Sara and Malaika killing it and giving us some serious Monday motivation," read the caption of the video posted by celebrity fitness instructor Namrata Purohit.

SWANSEA CITY player-coach Nick Cusack described telling eight players that they no longer had a future at the Vetch Field as the hardest day of his football career.
Cusack, who yesterday announced his retained list for next season, has released goalkeeper Jason Jones, defenders Chris Todd and Steve Healey, midfielders Jonathan Coates, Ryan Casey and Craig Draper, and forwards Steve Brodie and Chris O'Sullivan.
The departure of 21-year-old centre-back Todd - who not long ago was seen as one of the Swans' bright-est young prospects -- is perhaps the only surprise name on Cusack's list.
"This has been the most difficult thing I've done in my entire football career," said Cusack last night. "I've made a decision that affects the future of players' lives.
"I take no pleasure in making these sort of decisions. You'd have to question the humanity of those who would enjoy making them.
"What has made drawing up this list even more difficult is that a lot of the players are friends of mine.
"But I've got a job to do. I've got to make this club a success and that's what I'm going to be judged on. I've got to do what I think is right and I think the players I've let go respect that."
Coates, who made 245 league outings for the Swans, leaves after nine years at the Vetch.
Casey, whose time at the club was hampered by injury, made 62 league appearances, while Todd made 42 and Brodie 25.
Out of first-year professionals Draper, Healey and O'Sullivan, only Draper broke into the first team, making two league appearances.
With Roger Freestone in goal, Jones's opportunities were always limited at the Vetch and he made 10 league appearances since joining the Swans in 1997.
Explaining the reasoning behind the departures, Cusack said, "I want seven or eight dependable players in my side, players who know the game and who know the Third Division.
"I haven't got a large budget but I need to bring in new faces. The only way I can do that is by letting players go.
"If this club had a lot of money then possibly I could wait for certain players like Toddy to develop, but that's not the case.
"I'm looking for seasoned campaigners. If you look at teams like Hartlepool, Luton and Rushden & Diamonds they had strong, physical players in their teams.
"We've got to compete with them, so we can't afford to have too many youngsters. Looking back at the season which has just finished, I don't think we really battled.
"I want players who are bigger, fitter and stronger. The players who I've released know that I've got a job to do and they know I've got decisions to make.
"I want a fitter and better-organised team. We're moving in the right direction. We've got a new training ground and we've got a good pre-season planned."
He added, "Obviously, the players were a little upset when I told them
the news, but I think they took it well as could be expected.
"They're a good bunch of lads, they all want to be professional footballers and I've told them I'll help them in any way I can.
"But this is the nature of the football business - every year the personnel at football clubs changes."
Out-of-contract defender Neil Sharp yesterday accepted Cusack's offer of a new one-year deal.
The 24-year-old centre-back, signed by former Swans manager Colin Addison last season from Merthyr Tydfil, said, "It's been a horrible time waiting to see who is staying and who is going.
"I feel sorry for the boys who have been released but, on a personal level I'm relieved that I can finally relax and start thinking about the future."

Girl and Dog
The "something new" is actually the background - let me explain.
I didn't get any crafty goodies for Christmas (although I did get a subscription to "Craft Stamper" magazine - woohoo!) but I was looking at pan pastels and gelatos when I was visiting my BFF's local scrapbooking store. The pastels were quite expensive in comparison to the gelatos (although you got a lot more colours included in the pastels) so I decided I'd buy one set of gelatos which has 4 metallic colours and try them out. They say they are super easy, but I struggled with blending them, so looked at their website and then proceeded to watch some 'how to' videos. OK, obviously this technique is one where the more you practice, the better the result will be.
So when I was at our local shops a couple of days back, I was looking at art supplies and came across 'soft pastels' and was able to try them out. These are very chalky and blended very easily, but I wasn't going to buy them from this shop as it tends to be a tad expensive. Yesterday I was at a different shopping centre (I was supposed to be doing grocery shopping, hee hee) where there is a discount shop that also sells art supplies, and they had a pack of 'soft pastels' in 36 colours for $15.00 (bargain) !!! So ..... the blended background colours are these 'soft pastels' in three shades of green and one yellow - easy peasy!
I stamped "Every Girl and her Dog" directly onto the background and then again on ivory cardstock. The dress and the dog are both coloured using these soft pastels before cutting out and gluing directly on top of the first image.
The foliage is from SU "Pocket Silhouettes" with the clouds and words from SU "Up Up & Away". To allow definition, the edges are coloured with 'seedless preserves' Distress Ink and 'crushed grape' Dylusion Ink was spattered randomly across the tag. It's finished with a purple ribbon.
I'm entering this tag in the following challenges:
Stampotique Designers Challenge
Artistic Stamper Challenge
My apologies if I bored you to death with my rabbiting on about all these products, but I wanted to explain how the background came into being. If anyone out there in blogland can give me any tips on using and blending gelatos I will be very grateful. In the meantime I'll keep practising before I give up on them.
Happy crafting!

What a beautiful and sweet tag. Thanks for joining the Stampotique DCReplyDelete
Not bored here, I love a tale with a bargain in it! Well done you!! Love the tag too. Thanks for joining us again at Stampotique this week.ReplyDelete
Love reading about you insecurity with the Pan Pastels, as I am having the same blending problems. I only bought 4 (and, yes, they are expensive!), but likely won't buy any more. I like what you have done here with the "soft" pastels, so might check those out. Love your tag, Helen, but then I love all the "Hazel" stamps that Linda Peterson has done for Stampotique! This is one I don't have...hmmmm!ReplyDelete
Sorry to hear you don't get on with the gelatos. I don't have any and use mainly acrylic paint, pan pastels or spray inks for my backgrounds and I love all three.ReplyDelete
I like your tag, it is nice and bright !

I love this travel video from new tour company The Heart of Russia. It takes stereotypes (thank you YouTube and vodka) and shows that, despite what you think you know, there's a different side waiting to be explored. It certainly makes me want to go to Saratov and the Volga region, which doesn't feature on most (any?) of the usual itineraries to Russia.
Switzerland and Brexit = Swexit?
I spent two days in Davos last week as a guest of the Swiss Tourist Board explaining what we know about Brexit so far (answer – not a lot) to the slightly bemused Swiss audience who find it difficult to believe we seem to have no coherent plan in place for what's going to happen. (I had to explain to them that 48% of Brits are rather bemused by it all too).
But we also got to talk about British tourists in Switzerland, past present and future.
Below you can see me (on the right) in full flow as I begged the Swiss hospitality industry to move away from their obsession with those small plastic pots of UHT milk they have with their coffee. I fear it was a losing battle. Despite being surrounded by millions of cows that could provide lots of lovely fresh milk, I don't think they'll be budging any time soon.

Background: Improvements in health care systems worldwide have had notable effects on the life expectancy of older individuals. As a result, nonagenarians are emerging as a separate age group with distinct health care needs. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI), the mortality rates, and length of in-hospital stay among nonagenarians.
Methods: This is a retrospective case–control chart review of patients of age 90 years and above who were admitted to hospital. Patients with Stage I, II, or III chronic kidney disease were included in the analysis. The incidence of AKI was determined using data from the Acute Kidney Injury Network (AKIN) classification. Primary outcome variables included length of in-hospital stay and mortality rates.
Results: Of the 253 patients who were included in the study, the mean age was 91.5 years, 61 of the patients (25.9%) developed AKI, and 41 patients (66.1%) were in Stage I AKI according to AKIN criteria. Fifty-seven patients died during the study period; 57.9% of those patients had AKI. Hospital stay was longer in patients with AKI with a mean length of stay of 8.1 days. Congestive heart failure, cancer, and use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs were the main risk factors for AKI among those patients.
Conclusion: AKI is common in nonagenarians. It was associated with increased length of hospital stays and increased risk for mortality.
Keywords: acute kidney injury, elderly, geriatric, outcomes

Any of the several styles of fried noodles using a variety of ingredients from prawns to bacon and cuttlefish or squid (sotong). It is not uncommon to find pieces of deep-fried pork lard added to the noodles to bring enhance the taste. This dish should be served with a piece(or half) of lime and generous dollop of chilli paste. Also called 'fried hokkien mee/noodles' or 'hokkien prawn mee/noodles' or a combination of the two.

This stall used to be at the corner of old block 135 (before the double-storey food centre, block 127 was built). Back then, seating was alfresco and tables overflowed onto the open area outside the hawker centre. Business was good and so was the hokkien mee. When I had my hokkien mee here in this replacement centre (under HUP), something seemed to be lacking although the same guy was doing the cooking. Was it the food or the atmosphere ? I wasn't totally sure. Perhaps it was purely psychological - the old hawker centre had a look similar to the Commonwealth Avenue (Margaret Drive) hawker centre. The laid-back feeling of having your noodles under the stars has somehow been lost to this spanking new food centre.

A photo walk through the centre of Bristol is full of surprises and details that grab your attention and demand that they become the centre of your photo composition
Street Art
From its roots in the boom in graffiti and tagging in the 1980s, much of which was considered to be vandalism, it is now more commonly seen to be usually unsanctioned visual art created in public locations. It has developed into many forms of speciality - stencil graffiti, wheatpasted poster or sticker art, and street installation or even sculpture are common forms of modern street art. With modern computer and projection technology has come video projection onto buildings while almost as a counter technology response, traditional knitting has led to yarn bombing. With its development has come a growing recognition and enjoyment by the general public of Street Art as an often high quality, low cost art comparable to government or community sponsored high cost art installations. But its roots in political and social protest still dog it, some authorities seek to ban it and for some people it will always be equated to wanton vandalism.
Street Art: Love it or Loath it
For the general public, while graffiti is linked to vandalism and tagging by disengaged youths, modern Street Art is perhaps exemplified by Banksy. But even so, within the graffiti and Street Art world, Banksy represents a more 'commercial' art world wrapped in the Street Art style movement - it has become a term used to describe a graffiti artist who has "sold out" by becoming financially successful through the system he originally spoke out against. And it is for this reason that some people will try to discover his work and then throw paint over it, while the more commercially minded 'fan' try to quickly remove his work if possible to then try to sell!
Whatever your view, Banksy street art is well worth looking out for as you explore the streets around central Bristol with examples to be found in Stokes Croft, near the University and near the Floating Harbour.
But the street art scene is much more diverse and interesting than just a Banksy. The quality of the art works and graffiti is often outstanding, colourful and even interesting in its subject matter. Some is very much 'protest' in its theme, some is commemorating events or people, some is decorative and some would definitely have to be explained to me!
With a great local community spirit, localism is a key ingredient to sustaining the Stokes Croft area. But with the redevelopment of the city centre and floating harbour area, developmentals pressures are increasing on outlying areas, with rental increases becoming the estate agents buzzword of the moment and derelict building such as the old Carriageworks being eyed up for redevelopment.
So enjoy exploring and discovering the huge wealth of Street Art to be found in central Bristol while it lasts, as the combination of modern commercial development and property rental increases are starting to spread its web into once rundown parts of the city to the cost and detriment of their local communities.
Back to the future
Development brings prosperity at the cost of community
Walking back into the centre of the city through the wall of modern buildings that contain offices and a hotel. This seems to act as a modern developmental Berlin Wall dividing the low rise Stokes Croft area from the gleaming hustle and bustle of the modern world of St. James Barton district. Beyond the wall we come across the appropriately named Bearpit roundabout, where the car rules at the expense of the pedestrian who is pushed underground - community spirit is not a term that would be applied to this area!
The Bearpit
The Bearpit was the scene of an important historic street fair, with many ancient routes converging on this area from outlying areas to then enter the historic heart of Bristol. Now though, the only visible record of this is in some of the local street names, such as Haymarket and Horsefair.
Christmas Steps
But now we head for the Christmas Steps, where we discover that Bristol is a city built on a steep sided valleyside. Known as Queene Street in medieval times, it then became Knyfesmyth after some of the trades that were based here. Possibly through a corruption of that name or possibly (due to the nativity scene of the stained glass windows in a chapel at the top of its four flights of steps) it has since gained its modern name.
Forever upwards, my photo walk takes me past Colston Hall (a music venue), the Hippodrome theatre, up the valleyside to College Green where the city's Cathedral and City Hall are to be found, and then up Park Street towards the University of Bristol.
Before reaching the University my walk heads off to see Brandon Hill Park and its 32m high Cabot Tower.
Inside the Cabot Tower a tightly spiralling staircase winds up inside the tower to a platform, to give you wonderful views across the city and the River Avon valley.
Whoever invented tightly spiralling stairs was obviously interested in heavy breathing and choice swear words but moi, I am innocent of such behaviour and instead spring up the steps like a hale & hearty squirrel!
Now, having regained my breath, its time to head to the University. Now the streets start to grow grander, balconies cling to the sides of much of the classical architecture in this area. But look carefully and there is still the occasional glimpse of Street Art.
With a bright blue sky above and the sun casting strong shadows, take your time to look at the shapes of light and dark. Black & White can be ideal in conditions like this. Take your time and explore the camera options, perhaps make a few short video clips to record the sights and sounds of the city.
So the light conditions, as I reached Clifton Village, were ideal for a bit of B&W street photography, capturing some of the people and life near Clifton Arcade and the Primrose Café.
But the day is getting on and I've not yet reached the Clifton Gorge! So, after a quick but convivial caffeine intake, it's time to explore Clifton Down with its old Iron Age Camp and the gorge beyond.
From here it's all downhill thankfully, back down the valleyside though Cliftonwoods and Hotwells. The beautiful classical terrace of Royal York Terrace (reputedly the longest terrace in Europe) with its mass of balconies on the upper stories, contrasts with the hidden downstairs life of servitude on the below terraced walkway levels of the houses.
The housing though still in terraces becomes smaller in scale, perhaps more intimate with the small garden spaces that abound the route way down.
For a little while, once we reach the bottom of the valleyside, the walk has to confront the realities of the motor cars' impact on the city, with busy roads clinging to the narrow strip of flat land In their bid to escape the city onwards into the country.
Floating Harbour
Meanwhile we eventually reach the Floating Harbour and Spike Island where small boat building still has an important role. Interesting photo opportunities abound all around; timber templates, dusty lathes, the feeling of history perhaps more difficult to capture. But within the surroundings of history are the signs of regeneration, office development and colourful new housing, a new museum about the history of Bristol, pubs and a new social scene.
All the colour of the seaside but inland
And as always when you're exploring a city, keep an eye out for the interesting details that make that city unique
Could "Seven steps to Heaven" be Bristol's new motto?
So there you go, a nine mile photographic explore of the streets, neighbourhoods and parks of Bristol. And all you need is a good guide, a good eye and some good weather .... oh, and plenty of good café halts to allow time for a little relaxation!

Article date: 1988/7/7
PubMed ID: 2844552
Journal name: European journal of pharmacology (ISSN: 0014-2999)
The effects of four benzodiazepines (diazepam, clonazepam, oxazepam and clobazam) were studied on the head-twitch response induced in mice by several 5-HT receptor agonists. All the benzodiazepines tested potentiated the effects of the directly acting agonists 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeODMT), quipazine and mescaline, without themselves inducing head-twitches. In contrast, none of them potentiated head-twitches induced by the indirectly acting agonist 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP; with carbidopa 25 mg/kg), and in some experiments a clear inhibition was seen. The clonazepam (10 mg/kg) potentiation of 5-MeODMT-induced head-twitches was not antagonised by flumazenil, (+)-bicuculline, or by pretreatment with p-chlorophenylalanine. Neither was it mimicked by muscimol, which inhibited head-twitches. These results indicate that the observed potentiation is not mediated by benzodiazepine receptors and that it occurs postsynaptically to the initiating 5-HT receptors. The inability of the benzodiapines to potentiate 5-HTP-induced head-twitches probably reflects a reduction in 5-HT neuronal activity mediated by benzodiazepine receptors, as co-administration of flumazenil and clonazepam potentiated the effects of 5-HTP whereas each compound alone had no effect.

If you live in the Los Angeles area, then you are no stranger to the high cost of living. Your credentials enable you to work in a financially rewarding career. As much as you cherish your job and the financial security it has proved, you suspect that your employer has not paid you all your wages.
What can I do if I believe my employer owes me unpaid wages?
$1.5 million awarded to doctor who faced retaliation
Retaliatory acts in any walk of life can definitely have profound impacts on victims. However, when retaliation occurs in the workplace, the victim's financial and emotional well-being are directly affected. Its effects can be absolutely devastating. California and other states have laws that protect employees from retaliation. A doctor in another state was allegedly fired as a retaliatory act and she was awarded compensation from a lawsuit that she had filed.
Discrimination in the workplace is not only wrong but illegal
In California and across the country, significant progress has been made for the advancement of rights in the workplace. However, even in today's more progressive society, things like discrimination continue to happen at an alarming rate. Discrimination in any form is very wrong and can have far-reaching impacts, both financially and psychologically. What can be done when discrimination is experienced in the workplace? Legal action can be pursued.
Coal miner endures retaliation for workers' compensation claim
Significant injuries can result in lost wages due to time away from work. Fortunately, full-time employees in California and across the country are entitled to helpful benefits that can protect them financially and medically when injuries are suffered at work. Workers' compensation is a type of insurance that provides wages and medical benefits to workers that have been injured on the job. Unfortunately, it is not uncommon for some employers to retaliate against employees for using benefits such as workers' compensation. A man in another state filed a lawsuit after he claims he suffered retaliation for using workers' compensation benefits.
Proving employment retaliation in California
Like most states, California generally follows the at-will model of employment, which allows both employer and employee to terminate the employment relationship at any time, for any reason. However, the law sets forth several important exceptions to this rule.
Medical examiner faced retaliation for reporting harassment
Even in today's progressive society, harassment and discrimination continue to occur in the workplace. Harassment can take on many forms, including verbal comments and threatening behavior based a person's race, sex or religion. Harassment and discrimination in the workplace is morally wrong and also illegal in California and across the country. Unfortunately, it is not uncommon for employees to face retaliation after reporting harassment and discrimination. This allegedly happened to a woman in another state, and she filed a lawsuit.

Yoga seems like an oxymoron sometimes. According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, the term "oxymoron" is defined as a combination of contradictory or incongruous words (such as cruel kindness); broadly: something (such as a concept) that is made up of contradictory or incongruous elements. In Yoga, we learn to find comfort and steadiness through balancing resistance and opposing forces in our bodies during Asana practice. We learn the importance of honing our concentration in Dharana in order to free the mind to meditate in Dhyana. We look inwards and study ourselves to inch towards the goal of Samadhi, a state of supreme higher consciousness and ultimate understanding that we are all one. Indeed, the Yogic path seems contradictory if we viewed those seemingly incongruous states existing as distinct and opposite points of a linear road. But… what if, instead, they were just two sides of the same coin? One key message that I've come to deeply appreciate about Yoga is this power of perspective. Yoga teaches us that our happiness depends on how we perceive things. On the yoga mat, we contort our bodies into shapes of all kinds, including backbends, arm twisters and inversions, so we may experience and see the world from all angles. Through our practice, Yoga challenges us to shift our perspective and be more receptive, so that we may always find and appreciate the good in every situation, for there is never just good or bad, there is no pure duality.
A Vatta pacifying version of my favorite workout snack…
Understanding that I'm a Vata-Pitta Dosha, below are two versions of one of my favorite workout pre/post snack, Oats! As a Vata dominant Dosha, I to eat before every workout or feel lethargic during my workouts. For YTT, I make my cold overnight oats each Sunday in a giant mason jar that I have for breakfast each morning (sorry Nauli…). As I'll be heading to Boston in a couple weeks, I wanted to prepare a warm version of my favorite oats to pacify my Vatta dosha that will likely be thrown out of balance (too much) given the cold weather.
Warm Carrot Cake Oatmeal
For the oatmeal:
1 cup (125 g) finely grated peeled carrot
1 1/4 cups (310 mL) unsweetened almond milk
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
Dash ground nutmeg, to taste
Pinch fine sea salt
1/2 cup (50 g) rolled oats
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice, to taste (optional)
Chopped toasted walnuts
Shredded coconut
Cold Strawberry Chocolate Overnight Oats (current obsession)
1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/2 cup (heaping) rolled oats
2/3 cup unsweetened chocolate almond milk
1 tablespoon chia seeds or ground flax meal
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
0-2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
1/4 cup chopped fresh strawberries
We are all connected.
We are all connected. Whether we realize it or not, our actions impact one another. Yoga teaches us to pay closer attention to cause and effect of actions in life. Just as we develop our Asana practice by learning how muscle groups are interconnected, and see how a posture can improve significantly if we simply reposition our palm or shift our weight to the back foot, we become more in tuned with how our actions affect the people around us. As we practice in a group class, we may notice how one person toppling out of a balancing posture such as Vrkshasana (tree pose) can bring down others around. We may also notice how one person's negative mood in class can bring down the collective energy of the class. Nowadays, with social media significantly reducing the degrees of separation within our communities, our actions are more powerful than ever – positive or negative. Everyone has the capacity and responsibility to effect powerful positive change, even from the smallest of actions. Understanding this, I believe it is so important now to help spread this message of interconnectedness to encourage more mindful action. This is a key message I want to spread as I continue my yoga journey and teach others along the way.
Just keep breathing.
In Yoga we are told that breath is the singular most important thing. We've all been told by our yoga teachers to breathe deeply, to consciously bring awareness to our breaths, to synchronize breath and movement, and so on. Indeed, I've come to learn during this course that the power of our breaths is truly astonishing and far-reaching. Our breath is the key to unlocking our true potential.
Breath is life.
Breathing is the most essential function of the body that can be directly controlled. It not only powers our cardiovascular system (we would die in a matter of minutes if we stopped breathing), but also serves as a critical ingredient in all our body's electro-chemical processes. As Swami Sivananda said, "A yogi measures the span of life by the number of breaths, not by the number of years." Thus, learning to control, extend, and maximize each breath we take is the key to longevity.
Conscious breathing heals.
Unconscious breathing is controlled by the medulla oblongata in the brain, while conscious breathing comes from the more evolved areas of the brain in the cerebral cortex which impact emotions and thoughts. This helps promote mental clarity and focus, an inner calm. This also helps removes blockages to allow prana to flow more freely to enable the body to heal and repair more quickly.
Pranayama is a powerful tool.
Prana means life, vitality, or energy, which is inherent in our breath. Ayama means length, expansion, or control. Thus, pranayama is the extension and control of the breath. Using ancient pranayama techniques passed down through Yogic tradition, we can regulate our physical and mental states to achieve homeostasis, i.e. healthy body and mind. Additionally, Patanjali in his Yoga Sutras instructs the use of breath to achieve higher states of consciousness, i.e. spiritual growth.
Asana without proper breath is… not Yoga.
Proper breathing technique during Asana makes a meaningful difference in ability, awareness, safety and comfort. More importantly, not breathing defeats the purpose of practicing Asana in the first place, which is to prepare the body and mind for a meditative state to aid spiritual growth. Without the breath to connect the body and mind, Yoga would just be gymnastic!

It's so much easier to ease back into blogging with the help of a song....
And with that sung, let us vent...
"So she finally decides to show up...what fucking nerve! Abandons us like a Friday night cum shot and expects us to congregate again like nothing ever happened...which nothing did for over 2 bloody weeks! Seriously. The. Nerve."
Well. I hope that covers it but feel free to make good use of my comment box because even if you're typing my ear off about how shitty I am as a blogger, it beats only receiving junk from Japanese spammers.
Recently I've been:
sleeping in seedy whore-infested motels in Manila - getting more tattoos - partying on the beach by moonlight in Boracay - slurping duck embryos straight from the egg like shots - wearing denim shirts, feathers and large tie-dyed scarves - playing tennis again - fantasizing about watching my copy of Woodstock: The Director's Cut...but not watching it - trying to pick the perfect moment to watch it - buying items for my new accessories business - collecting bank from the first couple items sold - trying on fancy jalabiyas (arabic gowns) to the chagrin of many save for the store keeper and myself - speaking lots and lots of arabic - wondering if I am going to become a muslim just because I am ANYTHING BUT - but then drinking lots and lots of alcohol - eating lots and lots of restaurant food due to a huge surge in demand for me to do reviews - getting chunky because of said reviews and rice-crazed Filipino dishes - enforcing another strict fitness/diet regime as a result - getting tagged in way too many unbecoming photos - shopping at Oyshko for pyjama bits and bobs to wear out and about - flipping through the latest UK Elle on the beach with The Fox and having him give me style advice - shaking hands on the idea to take a joint trip to Zara/Zara Men and choose pieces for each other - actually trusting him on this one because he likes girls in baggy tshirts and mini skirts - catching myself off guard talking about The Fox too much like this....that sort of stuff.
And this week I'm:
taking a sushi-making class - interviewing a taxi driver about his harsh Abu Dhabi reality - reviewing another restaurant - enjoying a complimentary 3 night stay at a new amazing hotel - thinking of checking out like a rock star - looking into a short stint in Jordan - buying tickets for my friends' gig with Sir Bob Geldof in Dubai next weekend - doing laundry - probably returning 2/3 of the Oyshko items.
And right now:
I promise to try my best to post at least once a week.

The European Fee, the executive entire body that proposes laws for the EU, will this calendar year conclude a regulatory assessment for the governance of crypto assets, since they are "in this article to stay," a substantial-level has formal said.
Talking at a press convention following a conference of the Economic and Monetary Affairs Council final Friday, Valdis Dombrovskis, vice president of the European Fee, said member states are supportive of moves to chart rules governing the cryptocurrency industry in the economic region.
Dombrovskis said:
"We also had a superior exchange of sights on crypto-assets. We see that crypto-assets are in this article to stay. In spite of the current turbulence, this market place continues to increase."
Additional, he advised that preliminary coin offerings (ICOs) have the possible to develop into a practical kind of substitute financing. "By now final calendar year, ICOs assisted elevate over $6 billion in funding and this calendar year this determine will be substantially even bigger," he said.
To make the most of this possible, Dombrovskis said the obstacle correct now is how to "categorize and classify" crypto assets and whether the EU must use current economic market place regulations or make a set of focused rules for cryptocurrencies.
"In this context, we are presently performing collectively with European Supervisory Authorities on what we phone regulatory mapping of crypto assets to reply specifically these inquiries," he said. "This will provide a reliable ground to make on and to make your mind up on further more methods in this space."
Dombrovskis has earlier created positive remarks on ICOs as an modern fundraising strategy, as described by CoinDesk in February. He indicated at the time that regulators would consider more of a scenario-by-scenario solution to govern specific token jobs, whilst he conceded more operate would need to have to be finished by the commission.
And he is just not the lone ICO-pleasant lawmaker in the EU. Past Friday, a Member of the European Parliament advised a new rule governing ICOs that would spot an higher cap on token sale proceeds, but would also make suitable jobs available throughout EU member states.

How To Decorate A Wedding Reception On A Private Boat
If you have dreams of saying "I do" on the open water with wind blowing through your hair, consider holding it on a private cruise. The reception can follow directly after, as many high-end boats, such as yachts, have dining areas and small kitchens.
One of the benefits of hosting your wedding reception on a private boat is that you and your guests can take in the ocean views while enjoying dinner and dancing. One downside you may face, however, is the lack of event space. The good news is that you can make it work with some prior planning and little creativity.
Even though you may be short on space, you can still decorate the boat venue to give it a personalized touch. Use elements of your wedding, such as the colors and nautical-inspired theme, to put your own customized stamp on the space.
Here are ideas for decorating a private boat event space:
1. Linens
Table and chair linens will give the venue a pop of color and visual interest without taking up any extra space. As one idea, cover the dining tables with crisp white tablecloths, and place vibrant runners in beach-themed shades of turquoise blue, yellow, and coral down the centers. Choose matching cloth napkins, and gather them with seashell-decorated rings.
You can also wrap coordinating fabric bows around the backs of basic rental chairs to dress them up. Place matching cushions on the seat to add both color and comfort.
2. Table Centerpieces and Decor
When you don't have much space available for decorating, take advantage of the tabletops. Create eye-catching centerpieces that reflect the nautical theme using natural elements. As one idea, fill tall glass vases with sand and sprinkle seashells on it. Gently push the bottoms of pillar candles into the sand so that they fit securely into place.
As another idea, set vintage model ships or mini lighthouses in the centers of the tables. You can also fill small glass bottles with personalized quotes or sayings next to the guests' place settings as a "messages in a bottles."
3. Lighting Elements
If the private boat rental company allows it, hang some of your own lighting elements to add soft illumination to the space. Some ideas include nautical rope-wrapped lanterns or lamps, or paper lanterns in shades of blue.
For a touch of whimsy, wrap string lights featuring seashell, starfish, anchor or fish designs around any poles, pillars or beams.

Conductance tester:
with DIY sensor
Conductivity in the sense it is used in this article is the ability of a substance such as water to conduct electric current. It is expressed in terms of current per unit of applied voltage. It is the reciprocal of resistivity. Conductance is the reciprocal of resistance and is measured in siemens. It is therefore the ratio of the current through a substance to the potential difference at its ends. The tester described in this article is intended for assessing the quality of water, based on the acidity or alkalinity (pH), by means of a measurement of the conductance of the water.

Where can we find the song/lyrics that was written by the firefighter and sung by Michael Martin Murphey? It was beautiful! Thanks!

Randi, I think the song is titled South Canyon 1994, by Michael Patrick Karnahan. Here's a link to the video on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hh9LVZ2lZ4Q

A SPORTS and community centre has been praised for being "a magnet for young people".
Olympics Minister Tessa Jowell visited the Eltham Centre in Archery Road last Thursday after the facility attracted 5,000 members in its first quarter.
Taking a guided tour around the community centre's leisure facilities Ms Jowell said other councils should follow the borough's lead in building high standard centres.
The Minister said: "Facilities like this are like a magnet for young people. People should be arguing for them across London.
"I am quite sure that if you are 15, 16, 17, this is a cool place to come. They want to come here, and that is the secret.

Managing having diabetes can quite often be stressful. This article will show you a couple of ideas to help you in dealing with your illness.
Several of the vitamins like Vitamin B complex, Thiamine or Vitamin B1 and Pyridoxine or Vitamin B6 are wonderful controller of diabetes. Other vitamins like vitamin C and vitamin E also works fantastic in controlling diabetes. Have a look on the advantages how they can assist you controlling your diabetes.
Vitamin C – Vitamin C is considered extremely beneficial in treating diabetes. Simply because of tension, urinary losses and destruction by artificial sweeteners, the vitamin C requirement is typically high in diabetics. Big amounts of this vitamin occasionally bring really great outcomes. Dr. George V Mann in Perspective in Biology and Medicine suggested additional vitamin C for diabetics. Natural insulin output increases in diabetics with supplementary doses of vitamin C.
The intake of vitamin C in the form of dried Indian gooseberry (amla), the richest recognized source of vitamin C, or tablets of 500 mg or from natural sources of vitamin C besides amla, are citrus fruits, green leafy vegetables, sprouted Bengal gram and green grams.
Vitamin E – This vitamin reduces considerably the devastating vascular damage accompanying diabetes. Dr. Willard Shute in The Complete Book of Vitamins recommends 800-1600 IU of vitamin E a day to stop arterial degeneration in diabetes.
A Swedish study also supports vitamin E therapy for treating diabetes. Vitamin E assists diabetics decrease their insulin requirements. It would be advisable for a diabetes patient to take a every day dose of 200 IU of this vitamin for a fortnight at a time.
Rich Sources of Vitamin E. Valuable natural foods sources of this vitamin are wheat or cereal germ, entire grain goods, fruits and green leafy vegetables, milk and all entire raw or sprouted seeds.
Other rich sources of vitamin E are cold pressed crude vegetable oils, particularly sunflower seeds, safflower, and Soya beans oils, raw and sprouted seeds and grains, alfalfa, lettuce, almond, human milk etc.
Vitamin A – Diabetics are unable to convert beta-carotine to vitamin A. A supplement of this vitamin, for that reason, becomes needed. A dose of 15000 IU on alternate days is considered adequate by some authorities.
I hope you have found one or two very helpful strategies from this short post. When using the correct techniques and recommendations to assist you, controlling diabetes shouldn't have to be a difficult ailment.

I asked my friend Robin to process a film I found in an old bag the other day, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that the images were of my visit to my grandparents place last year. They're planning on moving soon so it's nice to have these images of their house- it's a beautiful stone building situated in a tiny hamlet on the outskirts of Condom (yes that's right, Condom) in the south of France. The knights templar were known to pass through Gourragne at some point, and theres a wonderful atmosphere there. I took some photographs of a tree me and Jonny planted for his friend Matt Taylor who tragically died before we left for our Europe trip in 2009. It grows in Gourragne's valley which has a small bamboo forest and a lovely little pond; I've posted photographs of this area before.
One thing that bothers me about these photographs is my inability to keep the horizon level. It's something I always forget about when I'm taking a photo from far away.
One Response to "Gourragne"
Hey, Sophe, great to see lil' ole Gourragne on your blog! Worldwide fame at last! Anyone want to buy our house?

Satin stitch is fast becoming a favourite as I worked it this week.
Admittedly it can become a bit tiresome and monotonous, but the end results are worth it (mostly). Of course, as I went on with my piece I learned things. Firstly, I wish I had done the berries in a straight colour and not variegated. The variegation has to be very subtle and this one turned out not to be. I should have quit after berry No. 1, but no. In the end, there was no way I was going to pull them out and start again as I was very happy with the working of them. Also, a hoop is essential. Shirley's
Importantly, satin stitch is a stitch that cannot be rushed. Each stitch demands patience and time.. Thus it has taken me almost the whole week staying up late each night.
The thread I used in the leaf is a hand dyed cotton from Stef Francis. I loved the way it sat, and it has a lovely sheen to it too. The border is some of Shirley's No 5 perle – 3 strands couched down with three satin stitches every half inch or so. I am helping Shirley reduce her thread stash
On the left is the inspiration for my piece. It comes from a book Shirley picked up at the local Lifeline shop, simply called "Embroidery" – over forty embroidery projects for you and your home – Introduction by Una Stubbs. It is from the 1980's.
Sharon B has some wonderful highlights of satin stitch on her 'browse' post HERE and also there are many more examples on her TAST week 14 page HERE (go to the comments section and follow people's links – some amazing eye candy)
I have a second piece of satin stitch I have started so will continue that in the background in the coming weeks.
I have also been busy in the sewing room over Easter, but much of what I have done is secret quilting business, so can't share right now.
Off to the coast tomorrow for about 5 days, so no internet

|IFAO database
of Deir el-Medina tombs
|The page was last modified on January the 5th 2018
|On the 8th of July 2014 the French Institute of Oriental Archaeology – Cairo (IFAO) published a new
on-line database of photographs of Deir el-Medina tombs :
The first version of the database contains 2,350 black & white and colour images. They were obtained from
glass plates, colour slides, black & white negatives and digital photos from the IFAO archives dating from
1920s onwards. The tombs are published in the universally used numbering order. Tomb owners' names and
titles are listed together with the corresponding dynasty in which they lived. A list of publications
concerning the tomb and a tomb plan accompany the data. The photographs are of the exteriors as well as
the interiors which are published wall by wall. Images dating from different decades or even centuries allow
for an immediate comparison between them. For each photograph, the photographer's name and the date
picture was taken are given.
The database is linked to the PDF files of The Topographical bibliography of ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic
texts, reliefs, and paintings, Vol. 1. The Theban Necropolis – Part 1 – Private tombs by Bertha Porter and
Rosalind Moss, 2nd ed. Oxford: Griffith Institute, Ashmolean Museum, 1960. The files contain descriptions
of the scenes in the tombs and list finds originating in them together with their current accession numbers
in museums.
The database will be updated by IFAO in the future as an ongoing project.
