Travel and see: Ghana || Out and About
Hey shugars … howdy?
Who's enjoying the last of the raining season? I am.
I had been consistent with posts for a while before leaving this one to sit in drafts for two blinking weeks.. Forgive me.
I wanted to remember the highlights from the trip and this alcove is my journal of some sort, so I'm being intentional with writing this, cos I love having memories.
Speaking of memories, sadly my memory card got corrupted some days into the trip and I lost a lot of pics. The former Tamie would have gone into semi depressed mode….#PictureLoverandHoarder…The new tamie felt sad for a like an hour, slept off and moved on.
As I started this post i remembered a few travel moments that skipped my mind while writing the last post.
Coming from a country where coins are no more used , I found it quite cute that coins were still very much in use. It became a thing for me. I found myself looking forward to getting a new denomination of coin from the mate (conductor). And I kept a lil collection. Was kinda forced to spend them, but made sure I kept one for keepsake.
I enjoyed the Twi language and accent. I noticed most people spoke a mix of English and Twi. I loved it. 😊 I didn't hear much of pidgin but the snatches I caught left me smiling.
Out and About
The tour started the day I arrived. I got a grand city tour with Barbara . We started out with a stop at the Accra mall, then drove round town…..like roooooooound town. Loved that.
Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Museum || Arts Center
Armed with directions and Google map I boarded a tro tro (bus) and headed off. The KNMM and Arts center are beside each other. My first stop was KNMM. I got a ticket at the gate and went in. I loved the environment. The air was so cool , there were lots of trees and fountains. First thing I noticed were most of the trees had little boards pinned in front of them with names of when they were planted, who planted them and on what occasion. First one I saw was planted by Robert Mugabe…lol. I walked round and looked for any planted by my country men and saw some. I loved the fountains. There was just something "attractive" about them.
After looking around and taking some pictures, I went to the museum proper. Taking Pictures aren't allowed in there. Prior to this time, aside a faint idea of KN being a former president I knew nothing about him , so it was quite enlightening going through the museum. There were pictures, his books, clothes, Grand piano, desk, and other effects. Each pic had a story underneath. His car was also housed on the grounds.
I met a man who brought his kids to the museum. He told me his name was Sani but he was popular called Sani Abacha. 😃
When I was done looking around KNMM I went over to the Arts center. The center had some arranged stores filled with lots of African crafts. I went with the intention to window shop alone. There were varied crafts on display and lots of tourists around. Ended up buying two earrings before leaving. The pictures I took at the Arts center were part of the lost files. Selah
I visited James town during the Chale Wote week. But on the day we went there, there wasn't much going on..We saw some artists going graffiti and preparing for the main event at the weekend.
Jamestown is a fishing town. It was interesting to see the Lighthouse and watch the fishermen with their boats against the strong winds of the sea. While the men were out fishing the women displayed and sold some of the catch..crayfish, fishes, octopus.
I saw this boat with some colourful flags and wanted to take a pic on it. Using the flags we traced the boat and met a guy – OnlyJah- who helped us unto the boat and did some paparazzi for us.
I planned to come back on Saturday to see some Chale Wote art, and meet up Funmi of funmiajalatravels. But by the time i was headed there, the traffic was legendary. Funmi also called saying the place was too crowded and she was leaving. I sharply turned back.
The lighthouse
Makola / Madina market
We stopped by makola market the day we were headed to James town, so didn't really spend much time there. I wanted to buy some fabrics , so that was basically what we did there.Lost the pictures I took there too.
Sometime within the week , I also went to Madina market to do some shopping. It's not as big as Makola but also a busy one.
Legon Botanical Center
I had buzzed an blogger friend Prisy who lives in Accra and we later planned to meet up. And that took place at LBC. The botanical center is a beautiful nature endowed recreational center.
It had a large play area for kids, with lots for them to do and keep them busy. There was a canopy walk, an activity trail and a lil lake, with students all around. Families came in with their food and drinks , blankets and sat around to have picnics or just watch their kids play.
Priscy and I did the canopy walk, while her kids played. My oh my. Let's just say my breathing only returned to normal when my feet was back on solid ground. There was also this rope adventure course…errrrrr, I didn't have liver for that at the moment biko. But it was fun watching people sweat it out. Lol
I thoroughly enjoyed my time there.
My friend Mavis [May]and her family live in Taadi and was gracious to host me for some days. Taadi is in the western region of Ghana, about 4 hours road trip from Accra (but about 3 hours if using a private car). I boarded a VIP bus from the Kaneshie park to Taadi. It was a pleasant road trip, maybe the best I've had in a long time..yes , a lot had to do with the smooth roads!
Taadi reminded me of Benin City, Nigeria. A Simple and quiet city with less hustle and bustle. Again, I was taken on a drive tour of the city the day I arrived by my hosts.
May and her husband Jesse were the bomb! Great hosts!! May was on a mission to feed me fat, which (according to my waistline) she accomplished! Accra was to Tourist Tamie , Taadi was to Vacation Tamie [food and rest].
Vienna City Beach
My hosts took me to have dinner here one evening and it was a lovely one. It's a bar/ resort on the beach. We went at night so didn't get much of the sea view but took a walk on the beach after dinner. The ambience and weather was really cool.
I experienced something funny in Taadi. People seemed to be at ease with cats walking around and lounging in public places. I counted not less than 8 cats of different colours and sizes jes strolling and hanging around. As a correct Naija babe I'm sure you can guess what I was doing in my mind. Hehehehehe. It was the same at Best Western Hotel when we stopped by there. Cats were just all around and people weren't bothered. Odiegwu.
Elmina castle
The most interesting book I've read this year is Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi , which coincidentally was set in Ghana, read my review here. The visit to Elmina was emotional.
The Elmina castle is one of the most important stops on the slave trade route. The tour guide mentioned the castle is about 500years old. It was initially run by the Portuguese, then the Dutch and lastly by the British. The view from outside was so pretty but within, the castle held so many untold stories. The tour started from the ground floors which held the dungeons for the prisoners. The female dungeon was something else, it still had a strong awful smell. When we proceeded to the upper quarters where the officials stayed the difference was clear. It was so airy, with natural air-conditioner from the sea below.
As I listened to the stories from the tour guide and remembered some of what I had read about the slave trade era, it really brought it home. Imagining all the slaves went through was more real to me and quite saddening.
One amusing thing I heard on this trip was " You don't sound Nigerian". #FatherLord. First it was the uber driver that picked me up, then Barbara, and then my fellow Nigerian on the flight back. For the Ghanaians I concluded that what they meant was I didn't have an Igbo, Yoruba or Hausa accent. For the Nigerian I just didn't gerrit. He actually said I sounded a bit Ghanaian.
When I went to get snacks at a kiosk in KNMM, I met a lady who told me she was referred to as Omo Lagos by her family. In the 80`s Her parents were living in lagos and her mum was pregnant with her and almost due when they left Nigeria during the #ghanamustgo period. She was born few weeks after the return to Ghana. As we continued talking she asked "so are you an uche, ngozi or amaka" . I laughed and asked her if those were the names of other Nigerians she had met, she said she enjoys Nollywood and those are the popular names she remembers from there.
On getting back, I found some random reminders like luggage stamp from Kaneshie park, KNMM entry ticket, airtime stub etc….so I created a scrap page in my journal with them.
I also brought back a coin to add to my coin collection ( I have a collection of old Nigerian coins and notes)
It was a beautiful trip and experience in all.
It's been long and stretched but thank you for reading along and sharing my memories.
Bubbles of love

Yep, that's it.Can someone check my understanding on submitting my transcript?
I'm understanding it as:
I can submit the official PDF from my undergrad (Tennessee), but need to also send a hard physical copy?
This feels like it should be the easy part of this application and yet this is where I'm scratching my head. Blame it on stress (and a recent concussion - excellent time to smack my head with a barbell).

Award-winning author Jacqueline Woodson will travel the nation over the next two years as the National Ambassador for Young People's Literature, a position to which she was recently named by the Library of Congress, writes Julianne McShane in Brooklyn Daily.
Bushwick-born Woodson won the National Book Award in 2014 for her memoir, "Brown Girl Dreaming," and was a finalist for that award for her 2016 book, "Another Brooklyn." She's also a two-time winner of the Coretta Scott King award, which honors African-American authors who write about the Black experience for a youth audience.
In her role as literary ambassador, Woodson will travel to schools and libraries — as well as less-expected venues, such as prisons and juvenile-detention centers — to converse with young bookworms from all backgrounds about how books have changed them in an effort to forge connections between readers, she said.
"I would love to go to prisons, I would love to go to juvenile-detention centers, group homes, any place where people have not had the same kinds of opportunities to gather and talk about literature and feel safe," she said.
The author told Brooklyn Daily about the message she will convey to young people.
"Reading gives us hope. When we read about the people who came before us and fictional characters who overcome the odds, it gives us this sense of what we can do ourselves," said Woodson, who lives in Park Slope. "When we have hope and information, we can create change."
Go to Brooklyn Daily to read what Woodson hopes to accomplish in the position over the next two years, as well as her views about Brooklyn and the neighborhood of Crown Heights in particular – the setting for her forthcoming novel, "The Dream of America."

One night after the Thunder pitching staff walked 11 batters en route to a 5-2 defeat at the hands of Richmond, right-hander Dillon Tate tossed six innings of two-hit ball to help pace Trenton to a 6-2 win to improve to 2-1 on the young season.
For the first time in the series, Trenton got on the scoreboard first as shortstop Gosuke Katoh, who went 2-for-4 on Saturday, came home to score on a wild pitch by Squirrels starter Jordan Johnson to put the Thunder ahead 1-0 in the first inning.
Richmond responded with a run of their own in the second inning as Squirrels designated hitter Dylan Davis put Richmond on the board with his second homer of the series to knot the score at one.
An RBI double by Thunder second baseman Bruce Caldwell in the third inning and a sac-fly by left fielder Ben Ruta in the fourth inning staked Trenton to a 4-1 advantage.
Meanwhile, after allowing back-to-back hits in the second inning, Tate settled in and retired the final 14 batters that he faced through his six innings of work. The 23-year old right-hander allowed just the two hits and did not walk a batter while fanning five in his first start of 2018.
Jhalan Jackson would homer for the second time as many days in the bottom of the sixth and Katoh chipped in an RBI single in the eighth to cap the Thunder scoring.
Relievers Caleb Frare and Jose Mesa Jr. combined for two scoreless frames between the seventh and eighth innings and combined to fan five batters in that span. Right-hander Joe Harvey surrendered a leadoff homer to Jerry Sands in the ninth inning, but retired the next three batters to nail down the 6-2 Thunder win.

Rothman No cover image Notorious in the Neighborhood: Sex and Families across the Color Line in Virginia, 1787-1861 By Joshua D. Rothman Read preview Synopsis Laws and cultural norms militated against interracial sex in Virginia before the Civil War, and yet it was ubiquitous in cities, towns, and plantation communities throughout the state. In Notorious in the Neighborhood, Joshua Rothman examines the full spectrum of interracial sexual relationships under slavery--from Thomas Jefferson, Sally Hemings, and the intertwined interracial families of Monticello and Charlottesville to commercial sex in Richmond, the routinized sexual exploitation of enslaved women, and adultery across the color line. He explores the complex considerations of legal and judicial authorities who handled cases involving illicit sex and describes how the customary toleration of sex across the color line both supported and undermined racism and slavery in the early national and antebellum South. White Virginians allowed for an astonishing degree of flexibility and fluidity within a seemingly rigid system of race and interracial relations, Rothman argues, and the relationship between law and custom regarding racial intermixture was always shifting. As a consequence, even as whites never questioned their own racial supremacy, the meaning and significance of racial boundaries, racial hierarchy, and ultimately of race itself always stood on unstable ground--a reality that whites understood and about which they demonstrated increasing anxiety as the nation's sectional crisis intensified. Excerpt Late on the night of September 3, 1792, in Henrico County, Virginia, two white men named Peter Franklin and Jesse Carpenter took captive a runaway slave boy they found in the home of a free woman of color named Angela Barnett. Questioning the boy led the two men to believe that Barnett harbored other runaways, and they returned to the house the next night. After forcing their way inside, they and Barnett engaged in a verbal and physical confrontation, during which Franklin advanced toward Barnett with a weapon in his hand. But before Franklin could reach her, Barnett grabbed an adze from behind a trunk and drove its blade six inches deep into Franklin's skull, fatally wounding him. Barnett was arrested and sent to jail to await trial. in April 1793 a jury found her guilty of murder and sentenced her to hang. Angela Barnett lived just outside the city limits of Richmond, but she had worked in the city proper for many years and had powerful friends among the white elite of Virginia's capital. Dozens of Barnett's supporters pleaded with Governor Henry Lee not to hang her, and they assured him that she was not normally a violent woman. William Richardson, with whose family Barnett had lived around 1780, wrote that she had always "conducted herself in a very decent & orderly manner." Major William Duval, one of Richmond's most prominent citizens, sent a note to the governor indicating that Barnett had lived with his family for an entire year, during which time "she conducted herself as a faithful servant, and had the care of my children, which Trust she discharged with Integrity & Fidelity." Thirty-eight other Richmonders—most of whom were white women from the city's wealthiest neighborhood— cosigned a petition recommending mercy for Barnett. the support of Barnett's influential white friends, however, appears to have had no impact on the governor, who ignored their petitions. Barnett's execution remained on schedule. On May 9, 1793, just eight days before her sentence was to be carried out, Barnett took matters into her own hands. She wrote to the governor . . .

OLIVER — Swarms of mosquitoes are already buzzing in parts of the south Okanagan. The recent warm weather and a lot of standing water means mosquito season has started early.
"When we get an early snow melt, the water comes out of the mountain much quicker and then it slowly backs up. When it backs up and lays stagnant for more than 72 hours, that's when the mosquitoes can hatch," said Zoe Kirk with the Regional District of Okanagan Similkameen (RDOS).
Kirk said most of the complaints so far are coming from residents in Osoyoos, Oliver, Olala and Faulder.
"I phoned (the RDOS), 'Save me!'" exclaimed Oliver resident Bonnie Shamber.
The RDOS has a Nuisance Control Program to tackle the pesky insects and has a mosquito control crew that will go to people's properties.
Kirk said mosquitoes are hard to control once they're adults, so the best time to catch them is in the larval stage.
Crews spray a pesticide called BTI into larvae habitats. The BTI dissolves and turns into a toxin in the larvae's gut, killing the bug.
Kirk said the BTI is harmless to other species.
Shamber is grateful for the program.
"It is amazing. It works very well, very quickly too," said Shamber.
The RDOS says people can protect themselves from the thirsty mosquitoes by mending screens and reducing the sources of standing water.

I will be honest in saying that I didn't instantly love the design of this car like I did with the 4LS... When I saw the LS 460 11 years ago, I was instantly taken with the design. This one is growing on me and takes some further study. I have a feeling that you're going to have to see this car in person to appreciate all of the curves/angles/details. The more that I look at high res pics, the more I like the car, but there is a lot of "design" to take in at first glance.
4LS was just a little simpler - and classically good looking.

Overview Image Gallery
Neon's Nunchaku are Neon Katt's weapons of choice. They made their first appearance in the episode "Never Miss a Beat" of RWBY Volume 3.
Neon's Nunchaku are cracked or bent like glowsticks in order to activate the ice Dust within. They have the ability to freeze any area they hit after the Dust has been activated, as demonstrated when Neon froze one of Yang Xiao Long's arms and legs in "Never Miss a Beat".
Before they are activated, the nunchaku have a dull gray color, but when using ice Dust, the nunchaku adopt a bright cyan glow. In concept art, the nunchaku are seen glowing with numerous different colors, including green, magenta and yellow, indicating that they can utilize different types of Dust. In the Volume 3 Commentaries, it is stated that the active Dust type changes each time the nunchaku are cracked, but there was not enough time to display this in the show itself.[1]
Trivia Edit
- In Amity Arena, Neon's Maid Katt outfit paints the hilts like a cyan and white candy cane and adds cat paws on the ends.

Full-Scale 1903 Wright Flyer failed the test Thrust = Drag in a NASA wind tunnel
I have found a presentation about an extensive set of tests done in 1999 on a full scale replica of Flyer I 1903. The plane did not behave well and was not able to produce enough thrust to overcome the drag.
"In the wind tunnel, the reproduced propeller fell short of T=D @ 28 mph test condition when operating at the maximum permitted speed of 340 RPM. These data are being analyzed"
$C_L=C_L(C_D)$ Flyer I replica
Source: Full-Scale 1903 Wright Flyer Wind Tunnel Test Results From the NASA Ames Research Center
Unfortunately, the presentation, also quite explicit, does not give the values of the Thrust, Drag or Drag - Thrust at 28 mph. I calculated the Drag from $C_L=C_L(C_D)$, Lift = Weight (the mass of the airplane is known) and and the surface of the wings. Using a simulator I also evaluated the thrust delivered by some modern propellers, having the same diameter as the ones the Wright Brothers said they had used in 1903, and they deliver enough thrust at 28 mph and 340 RPM.
There should be other more detailed articles, which I can not find, about the same set of tests because they planned the experiments for years and it is expected a lot of data was obtained.
I would be really interested to know either the exact geometry of the propellers to calculate their thrust with a simulator or find somewhere the diagram $Thrust = Thrust_{340\:RPM}(v_{air})$ corresponding to the tested replica. If you can find such a document please tell me about it.
Anyway at 6 hp / propeller (12 hp in total) I calculated that only propellers with an efficiency well below 50% (miserable even for the standard of 1903) could have failed to produce enough thrust for the Flyer I replica at 28 mph.
Update 1
A Mathcad demonstration which shows that the efficiency of the propellers used by the Flyer I replica should be below 31.2% to fail the test T = D.
Update 2
Another wind tunnel set of tests was done in 2003 on a different Flyer I replica (see: Flying Qualities of the Wright 1903 Flyer: From Simulation to Flight Test). Also the lift drag diagram for the case "props off" was about the same as the one obtained in 1999, the thrust generated by the propellers at 340 RPM and Q = 2 psf which translates in a 28 mph plane speed, the same as in the 1999 tests, was 80 lbf (36.28 kgf) more than double than the Drag = 17.44 kgf calculated for the 1999 replica. Unless quite different propellers had been used in 1999 and 2003 the 1999 propellers should not have failed the test T = D at 28 mph. It appears that various investigation teams have used propellers with different geometries.
Flyer I 2003 replica - Drag Coefficient, On Rail - Propellers off
Flyer I 2003 replica - Static and dynamic thrust of the propellers two dynamic pressures, $Q = 0.5\rho V^2$. 1) $Q = 1\:lbf/ft^2$ ($V=19.98\:mph$) 2) $Q = 2\:lbf/ft^2$ ($V=28.26\:mph$). $\rho=1.2\:kg/m^3$

"Organic" is a legal term, as defined by the USDA. According to regulations, there can be NO use of synthetic herbicides and pesticides for at least 3 years prior to harvest. For meats, the USDA requires that the animals have living conditions that "accommodate natural behaviors" of the animal, such as grazing for cows. Animals also are fed 100% organic forage and feed, with no administration of antibiotics or hormones.
Oh, and Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO's) are not allowed.
Who cares about GMO's?
There is a lot of confusion over GMO's, what they are and why some people (including myself) hate on them so much. Here is why I avoid GMO's like the plague: the majority of GMO's were engineered specifically to be resistant to herbicide. Specifically, glyphosate, otherwise known as "Round-Up". This means that farmers can spray glyphosate all over crops, at any time and at multiple times during the growing season. Any weeds will die (Well, most. There are "super weeds" that are beginning to emerge as herbicide use increases, but, I digress.), but the crop itself is unaffected. Once you see evidence of broad spectrum herbicide use on a GMO crop field, you can't unsee it. Go driving out in the country, anywhere in the midwest during summer. Take a look at that corn field, with it's nice, green, tall stalks. That's GMO corn. Know how you know? First, almost ALL corn grown here is GMO corn so I'd be very surprised if you were to actually stumble upon one that was not. Second, take a look at the edge of the field, where the grass grows. That grass is brown and dead, isn't it? That's evidence of a little overspray of a broad spectrum herbicide like glyphosate. I never looked at a corn field the same way again after learning that.
Since GMO's were introduced, the use of herbicides, usually glyphosate, has gone up fifteen fold. In 2013, the EPA quietly raised the allowable levels of glyphosate (known also as Round-up) in our nation's food supply. These numbers represent, sometimes, as much as a ten to fifteen fold increase over previously allowed levels.
So what are the most common GMO crops, and therefore, the ones most likely to be contaminated with glyphosate?
- Nearly ALL corn, soy, and cotton grown in the United States is GMO
- Sugar cane and sugar beets
- Canola (also known as rapeseed), for the production of canola oil
- flax
- Peas
- Lentils
- Dry beans
- Grain crops such as wheat, oats, barley
There's a little extra bit that we haven't discussed yet that makes GMO grains especially problematic. Grains are, by nature, dried crops. They are harvested after allowing some drying time in the field, then immediately further dried in large grain elevators and silos. If not properly dried, moisture will increase the likelihood of spoilage. Glyphosate is also marketed as a "desiccant", which is an agent that is applied to crops right before harvesting to encourage drying. How handy is that? (eye roll) Coincidentally, grain crops have some of the highest allowable levels of glyphosate.
What about meat and dairy?
Organic doesn't just apply to the produce we buy. It applies to meats and dairy as well. Organic meat would have to meet the USDA specifications. Which means that the animal was given all organic feed or forage. If you haven't already, go ahead and muster some courage to take a look at that list that the link above will take you to (I've put it here again, just in case). Take a look at the allowable levels of glyphosate for animal feed and "forage". Notice anything? Yeah, so did I. To say that those numbers are substantially larger than the rest is an understatement. Those animals eat all of that chemical laced feed, then we slaughter and eat them. So we're eating a concentrated source of herbicides.
Same goes for dairy, in the form of milk, cheese, butter, etc.
What about "Organic" everything else?
As consumers have begun to learn more about food quality, those that market food products to us have picked up on this trend. Enter: organic everything! You can find everything from organic candy, snack cakes, cheese doodles… But of course, slapping "organic" on a label doesn't mean those chips are healthy. It does mean that the majority of the ingredients are organic. But junk food is still junk food, let's be clear on that.
What should I buy, then?
I do understand that everyone has a budget to live within, and this forces choices. So here are my thoughts about what to concentrate on, and what to consider "sacrificing" in the name of better quality food.
- If you have to choose between organic produce and organic meat and dairy, go with meat and dairy. Hands down, no contest. Stretch your dollar by eating less meat, and using less dairy, and add in more produce. Meal plan, buy only what you need, and ensure that very little of your expensive and high quality food gets wasted.
- Strongly consider switching to organic grains. Organic flour, oatmeal, rice, etc. Fun tip: when you cut processed foods out of your diet, you'll also cut out a lot of GMO grain.
- Another reason to cut out processed food: it's expensive! It only seems to be cheap. But, because it's filled with nothing but a bunch of empty carbohydrates, it'll fill you up for about all of 5 minutes before you're hungry again and reach for the next bag of chips. It's amazing how much less money you can spend on groceries when you cut out processed foods and "food products".
- Sugar! Most of our sugar here is made from sugar beets, almost all of which are GMO. Organic sugar is more expensive, so you'll use less, which I think everyone can agree is probably better for us anyway.
- Another area where I made an effort to switch to organic was my dried herbs and spices. It seems insignificant, but a lot of herbs and spices have higher allowable levels of glyphosate.
Believe it or not, it IS possible to have a reasonable food budget, and eat high-quality food. I average our family size to be 4 people (since Abby and Parker only live with us 50% of the time), and I am able to keep our weekly food costs to about $150. I would estimate almost all- 95% or better- of our meat and dairy to be organic, and around 50% for everything else.
What concerns do you have about affording higher quality food for your family?

Creatine Side Effects – Should You Worry About Taking Creatine?
Creatine is one of the most clinically studied sports supplements in the world. Many studies have been performed on humans to test creatine's side effects. Dr. Paul Balsom of the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden, is one of the world's leading experts on creatine. He states in a review article published in 1994 in Sports Medicine that "to the best of our knowledge, the only documented adverse effect that has been associated with creatine supplementation is an increase in body mass."
I don't know about you, but an 'increase in lean body mass' doesn't sound like an adverse side effect. I am pretty sure getting bigger is why the majority of us are taking creatine.
How Long Can You Continuously Take Creatine?
I know people who take creatine year round and I know some people who cycle creatine every 6-8 weeks. Creatine isn't toxic and it won't screw up your bodily functions. The main fear with creatine is that it might cause kidney damage. The fear is theoretical, however. In fact, a few years ago researchers in Brazil reported that creatine supplements improved kidney function.
What are the side effects if you have been taking creatine for months or even years? No one can really say. The majority of studies that I read were typically short-term studies (1 – 2 months in duration). Therefore, if there are any consequences of long-term creatine us, experts don't know what they are.
Can You Take Too Much Creatine?
If out of ignorance you neglect the manufacturers suggested use and you take too much creatine, it may cause an upset stomach, really bad gas, or worst case scenario you get both. Just be sure you are always close to a bathroom.
If you notice an upset stomach, simply reduce the amount you are taking and then slowly work your way up to higher levels. Some people have reported cramping while taking creatine. Preventing cramping is simple: Drink more water.
What Are The More Common Effects of Creatine?
Apart from increasing your body mass, creatine has many other effects on the body (most of them positive). Here are a few of those effects:
- Increase in strength, power and energy
- Fuller more 'pumped' muscles
- Decrease in lactic acid buildup in muscles
- Increased water retention
- Gas and bloating
- Decrease in muscle fatigue
Will you feel all of these creatine side effects? Probably not as the results tend to vary from user to user. If you follow the manufacturer's suggested dosage and do your creatine loading correctly, you will reap the rewards that creatine will have on your physique, strength and endurance.
So, Should You Really Worry About Creatine?
Taking creatine has been shown in many clinical studies to be safe. If there was one aspect of creatine supplementation that shouldn't be neglected it is the importance of getting enough water. A general rule of thumb is to drink 1.5 ounces per pound of lean body mass DAILY. Creatine will not give you the results you want if you don't drink enough water.
As stated above stick to the manufacturer's suggested dosage, especially if you are getting your creatine in a stimulant loaded pre-workout supplement. Creatine supplements come in many different forms. Capsules, raw powders, flavored pre-workout drinks and even chewable candies. Whatever form of creatine you prefer, we can help you find the best creatine supplement.

Daria Medvedeva
Meet the stunning Daria Medvedeva; she is the lovely wife of Daniil Medvedev. Her husband is the 6'6″ Russian tennis player who has been playing professionally since 2014 and reached his highest singles world ranking of #5 on August 19, 2019.
"She gave me a lot of confidence. I always say that it's the moment I made the proposal to her, that's when I started to go up [in the rankings]. It was at this moment — it was after Wimbledon. I was, I think, 65 or something like this, and at the end of the year, I was already 15.".
Coached by Gilles Guevara, Daniil said his pretty wife Daria is helping him to play much better, which is why he wasn't jealous when she stole the spotlight during his final match in Cincinnati against David Goffin.
Daniil and Daria dated for several years before they tied the knot on September 12, 2018, in Moscow, Russia.
Daria attended the Moscow State Institute of International Relations (MGIMO), where she and Daniil, probably met. She later attended Lomonosov Moscow State University (MSU).

Top presidential adviser Jared Kushner's legal team pushed back Friday night against a report that the White House senior adviser and Trump son-in-law had at least three undisclosed contacts with a Russian ambassador during and after the 2016 presidential campaign, saying he had "no recollection" of the alleged exchanges.
"Mr. Kushner participated in thousands of calls in this time period. He has no recollection of the calls as described," Kushner's lawyer Jamie Gorelick told POLITICO in a statement, responding to a Reuters report about Kushner's contacts with Russian ambassador to the U.S. Sergey Kislyak.
"We have asked (Reuters) for the dates of such alleged calls so we may look into it and respond, but we have not received such information," Gorelick added.
But Kushner's legal team was silent about other reports that President Donald Trump's son-in-law sought to establish a secret line of communications with the Kremlin. The White House did not respond to requests for comment on the reports.
According to Reuters, Kushner held at least two phone calls between April and November of last year with Kislyak, who's represented Russian President Vladimir Putin in Washington since 2008.
In a separate report, the Washington Post reported Kushner sought to establish secret communications with the Kremlin during a transition meeting with Kislyak. Per the Post, Kislyak said he talked to Kushner about installing secure lines between the Trump transition and Russian officials at foreign facilities to avoid conversations being monitored.
The New York Times reported that the purpose of the channel was to allow then-national security adviser Michael Flynn to communicate directly with Moscow about Syria and other security issues. The lines were never set up, the Times reported. Flynn, who is under investigation, was dismissed in February amid reports that he lied to Vice President Mike Pence about the extent of his contacts with Kislyak. Read more at POLITICO.

When it comes to sisterly relationship advice, Khloe Kardashian's not afraid to tell it like it is.
And it seems that 31-year-old isn't always a fan of sister Kim's taste in men.
Yes, Kim might be happily married to Kanye West now, but who could forget her 72 day-long marriage to basketball pro Kris Humphries back in 2011?
Read: Fans Think Khloe Kardashian Is Lying About *This* Photo…
Well, Khloe hasn't forgotten. In fact, she's owned up about just how much she despised her sister's choice of partner in an online video.
'There's [been] a ton of times that I've told my sister the truth,' Khloe said on Snoop Dogg's series, GGN.
'Like when she wanted to marry Kris Humphries I was like, 'He's a f***ing loser! Why are you marrying this f***ing dog?'
Wowza. Don't mince those words, Khloe!
Khloe continued: 'But she didn't have to hear me and that's okay. The fact is, I said what I had to say and I am not just going to dumb myself down and act like this guy was not a f***ing joke. For what?'
'So I said the truth and in hindsight, I think later, she was like "You know you were right." That takes a bigger person to come back later and say, "You know what sister, you were right."'
If you watch Keeping Up With The Kardashians, you'll know that Kim was understandably devastated about the breakdown of her short marriage to Kris.
Read: Khloe Kardashian Uses Kylie To Make Kim Jealous…
And in a recent interview, she confessed that her split woud actually ruin her family's careers.
Latest Stories
'At the time when I was going through the divorce I did say to everyone, "You guys, I think our careers are over. I hope you've saved your money. And now we'll just continue to do our clothing stores and continue to do what we started off doing before the show,'" she told The Drum.
'I totally thought it was over.' LOL. Who would have thought?! She couldn't have BEEN more wrong…

Women play a critical role in development. One of the most significant places where gender parity must be achieved is in politics. This is because political office holders often drive the economic, social and policy agenda of a country.
However, getting a seat at the table is no mean feat. Although gender equality and women's empowerment have advanced, the political arena has one of the lowest female representations, with only 23 per cent of parliamentary seats worldwide being held by women. This low average is brought about by countries with zero or very low women representation.
With just over 50 per cent proportion of women in the population, Kenya must find a way of increasing women representation in Parliament and other political positions. One may ask; how did countries with high women representation do it?

Sweden has mainstreamed gender and made deliberate gender equality policies that inspire equal distribution of men and women in all spheres of life, ensuring everyone has equal opportunities in politics, national and organisational leadership as well as social and economic activities.
Uganda, Argentina, India, Bangladesh, Eritrea, and Tanzania have quotas of parliamentary seats reserved for women. Seychelles has achieved its high ranking in women representation through a sheer political commitment. Can Kenya emulate these countries?
The genocide in Rwanda left the county with about 70 per cent female population, which forced more women to come out and take positions of responsibility at the work place and in leadership. Rather than having a county woman representative to Parliament, suppose the country introduced a rotational women-only constituency representation in each county.
This would still guarantee a minimum of 47 women parliamentarians, who would be having a more directed responsibility of representing a constituency, while at the same time lowering the wage bill by nearly Sh2 billion per annum. All the other constituencies would still allow interested women to contest.
The net effect is that each constituency would begin to groom women who are capable of winning a parliamentary seat. By giving them the buffer protection against men in the initial attempt, this process would strengthen women to contest against men in the next round. Before long, Kenya would have very strong women parliamentarians and politicians.
How the counties decide which constituency to start with and which will be next can be done in a simple ballot where constituency representatives pick a number. The constituency with number one would be the first to have only women contesting.
This would be followed by number two until the last constituency is represented by a woman, and then number one comes up again.
For counties with more than five constituencies, at least two should be reserved for women, again on a rotational basis. These include Nairobi County with the highest number of constituencies numbering 11, which would take until 2072 for all the constituencies to be represented by women if only one constituency is reserved per election.
Kiambu has nine; Meru and Kakamega have eight each while Machakos and Muranga counties have seven constituencies each. Tharaka Nithi, which is a one-constituency county, would have a woman every other election while Isiolo, Laikipia, Samburu and Lamu would take only two elections to have both constituencies represented by a woman and the cycle would restart in 2032.
A majority of the counties comprise three constituencies and would therefore restart in 2037 and after every three elections. This analysis assumes that the rotation will start with the 2022 election.
In the long run, these women would become seasoned and can contest and win Senate and gubernatorial seats, and we would be on our way to achieving sustainable development.

Wildfires and drought have forced Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin to declare a state of emergency for 52 counties.
An estimated 200,000 acres in Oklahoma burned on April 12 and the fires are still being fought. The most fire damage has been in Dewey and Woodward Co. where towns have been evacuated.
The counties included in the governor's declaration are Alfalfa, Beaver, Beckham, Blaine, Caddo, Canadian, Carter, Cimarron, Cleveland, Comanche, Cotton, Creek, Custer, Dewey, Ellis, Garfield, Garvin, Grady, Grant, Greer, Harmon, Harper, Jackson, Jefferson, Johnston, Kay, Kingfisher, Kiowa, Lincoln, Logan, Love, Major, Marshall, McClain, Murray, Noble, Oklahoma, Okfuskee, Okmulgee, Osage, Pawnee, Payne, Pontotoc, Pottawatomie, Roger Mills, Seminole, Stephens, Texas, Tillman, Washita, Woods and Woodward.
Gov. Fallin has authorize state agencies may make emergency purchases and acquisitions needed to expedite the delivery of resources to local jurisdictions.
A burn ban is in place for 20 counties including: Alfalfa, Beaver, Beckham, Canadian, Cimarron, Custer, Dewey, Ellis, Grant, Greer, Harmon, Harper, Jackson, Kiowa, Major, Roger Mills, Texas, Washita, Woods, and Woodward.
"I'm asking all Oklahomans to be vigilant and careful, and to do their part to prevent fires," Fallin says. "Anything that can be done to minimize fires will help to keep both our firefighters and the public safe."
Under the burn ban it is unlawful to set fire to any forest, grass, woods, wildlands, or marshes; to build a bonfire or fire; to burn or ignite fireworks; or to burn trash or other materials outdoors in any of the listed counties.
The executive order is in effect for the next 30 days.
Cattlemen Set Up Relief Fund
Following the efforts past two years of wildfires in the Southern Plains a relief fund has been established to aid cattle producers impacted by fire. The Oklahoma Cattlemen's Foundation (OCF) started a fund to help cattlemen who have been affected by on-going wildfires in Western Oklahoma.
"Oklahoma wind and drought conditions spurred several large fires on the western side of the Oklahoma yesterday effecting many cattlemen," says Tiffani Pruitt, coordinator of the OCF, a charitable arm of the Oklahoma Cattlemen's Association. "One thing we've learned from the wildfires in the past few years is that folks are quick to want to help those in unfortunate situations, and that is truly humbling. The OCF is happy to provide a place for funds to be held. We will coordinate with the Extension Offices in the effected areas to organize relief efforts and to identify ranchers that are in need."
According to Michael Kelsey, executive vice president of the Oklahoma Cattlemen's Association, "OCA is coordinating with Extension, The Farm Service Agency and others to bring information to ranchers about disaster assistance. We humbly ask for prayers for ranchers, firefighters and folks in the paths of these devastating fires."
100% of donations will be distributed to ranchers who have been affected by the fires. You may donate to this relief effort by mail or online. Make checks payable to Oklahoma Cattlemen's Foundation, with "Fire Relief" in the memo line and send to P.O. Box 82395., Oklahoma City, OK 73148. To donate online, visit www.okcattlemen.org.

Stepping up to Wellness
Health and Wellness. What is the difference between the two? Health is the overall mental and physical state of a person - the absence of disease. Wellness, on the other hand, is all about being in optimal mental and physical health, living a life full of personal responsibility and being proactive about maintaining our entire well-being.
This year, Monash Malaysia's Counselling, Health and Wellness Services, in collaboration with students from Monash University Pharmacy Society (MUPhaS), put together the Step Up to Wellness and MUPhaS Public Health Campaign 2018 'Depression: Let's Talk'.
The two-day event featured informative talks by speakers from Hospital Kuala Lumpur, Sunway Medical Centre and Befrienders Kuala Lumpur, as well as a forum on Sexual Safety with a panel of speakers from the Royal Malaysia Police, MindWorks Psychology and Counselling Centre, and Dr Goh Pei Hwa - Lecturer from our Department of Psychology.
Associate Professor Dr Victor Chuang, Head of School of Pharmacy, applauded the organisers as he said the event serves an extremely important purpose, and encouraged more similar campaigns and talks to be held in the future.
Students and staff were invited to participate in some stress-relieving activities such as colouring, and others were invited to write things that stress them out the most on balloons, and pop them, which caught the attention of many students. There was also a free health screening and opportunity to get to know our counsellors.

Earth Hour started in 2007 in Sydney, Australia when 2.2 million homes and businesses turned their lights off for one hour to make their stand against climate change. Only a year later and Earth Hour had become a global sustainability movement with more than 50 million people across 35 countries participating. Global landmarks such as the, Sydney Harbour Bridge, The CN Tower in Toronto, The Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, and Rome's Colosseum, all stood in darkness, as symbols of hope for a cause that grows more urgent by the hour.

From Solar Generation – Pilipinas
I always value every single thing about the planet. From throwing trash in the trash cans to being an advocate of anti-climate change. I was given the chance to witness last year's earth hour. As far as I can remember, I was in a restaurant with a close friend talking about it and looking forward to total darkness. And before we finally went home, the lights were out. It was an amazing experience to have been a part of a worldwide event. And this year, I was also a part of it.
Though I'm not familiar with places here in Manila I really tried my best to find the place where Greenpeace and Solar Generation Pilipinas were based during the event. I honestly got lost along the way and was even late for the call time but managed to find Malate Church, and was able to participate in the organization's activity and in the earth hour itself. The moment I arrived, the first thing that I noticed were the people busy doing and preparing for the event. I was also awed by the preparations made by the parish headed by Fr. John Leydon. The Greenpeace organization also did their part by installing solar energy panels as demonstration that was used during the earth hour. In the event I met other Greenpeace and Solar Generation Pilipinas' other members who were also active in making the event successful. An hour after I arrived, all of us witnessed earth hour.

m 24yrs old i have a story about my mom, this was a big secret of my mom and she never knew i saw her and i didnt tell her about it, because its awkward and i dont want to destroy my mom and dad's marriage. this happened 8 yrs ago when i was 16yrs old and my mom was 39 that time, she was smokin hot 8yrs ago when she was 39, she has that meaty sexy figure, long meaty sexy legs. she's not skinny, she's not fat, but she was a meaty woman, her figure was like jennifer lopez. my dad works out of the country he only goes home once or twice a year. we had a happy family, my mom and dad loves each other very much. one summer my cousin went on a vacation for a week, he was 2 yrs older than me he was 18yrs old, he always go to our house every summer and stayed there for 1-2weeks hanging out with me and my younger brother(15yrs old that time). when my cousin is in the house i always saw him staring at my mom's butt and sexy legs, my mom always wear a mini skirt in the office, whenever she arrives home late at night i always see my cousin kim staring at her sexy legs, and always follow her upstairs and staring at her legs going up, what turns me on is my mom always caught him staring at her legs and she just ignores it, i saw her many times when she was going up stairs wearing an office mini skirt attire and she saw my cousin kim follows her everytime upstairs 2 steps behind her and obviously staring at her big butt and sexy legs and she just ignores it every time, i think she likes it. Then one night about 8pm me and my brother and my cousin kim was watching a basketball game in the park, a few blocks away from our house then my mom came along after a day working in the office, she saw us and she was wearing that hot office attire mini skirt and a tall sexy shoe. she's carrying a bag of groceries, then she asked my cousin kim to help her carry it home, i ask her to do it but she stop me and said kim will do, so me and brother can enjoy watching the basketball game. they walked home, kim carried the bags. 20min later, something came naughty in my mind, i remember kim likes my mom wearing those sexy mini skirt office attire, and what if they were alone in the house, i decided to go home, but i told my brother i will be back to get some snack, he agreed, then i quickly walked home, then quietly sneak in to our house, i saw the bags on the table but no one in the living room, then i heard some murmuring as i slowly walked in there, until i got to stairs behind the living room near the kitchen, i hide beneath the cabinet, i shockingly saw them having sex on the stair, i saw my mom on top of my cousin kim, my cousin kim was half naked just wearing his pants, he was seating on the stair thread about 6 steps above the ground and my mom was on top of him, sitting on him, sitting on his lap with her legs around his body, her left hand was holding on the railing and the other hand was around kim's neck, she was still wearing that hot mini skirt and her tall shoe and her bra, i was shocked but i felt excited and naughty and seems to be liking it, i had a good view of them, i was viewing my mom's backside and her body was covering kim, thats why they cant see me, my mom was seating on him and they were making out and even if i cant see them direclty kissing because of the view, i know they are hardly kissing tongue to tongue like eating each other's mouth because of the sound they make, the sound was like eating an ice cream but a little louder. the fun part was they were slowly going up the stair with that kind of position and they never got up with their feet, just kim sitting on the stair steps and my moms was sitting on him and they went up every step slowly, when they were on the 10th step, my mom took off her bra and threw it behind her, still she was seating on kim and they were wildy eating each other's mouth and tongue, then finally after few minutes of slowly pushing their way up the stairs, they got on to the last step and then the hallway was next, i went up slowly to follow them, i went up to the 9th or 10th step then i stop because that was already a good view, then i saw them crawling slowly on the hallway with that same position, kim was sitting on the floor and my mom on top of him sitting on him, they were still kissing hardly and murmuring loudly, they were kissing and making out so long. finally after tons of minutes of kissing and crawling their way off the hallway, they got inside the bedroom, my mom was still sitting on kim and kim was still sitting on the floor with my mom on top of him she opened the door knob, they went inside the room by crawling, i mean it really looked like a wrestling match and my mom was dominant,she was all over him. my mom kicked the door to close, but it did not close completely, i slowly got up again and followed them again then i sneak to the door opening to watch them, about 2 inches open i saw my mom pounding at my cousin kim, my cousin still on his back and my mom still on top. seriously my mom never let him got up his feet, and she too never stood up, she was simply sitting on top of kim's lap with her legs around kim and kim just simply sitting on the stair on the floor carrying my mom on his lap while hardly kissing, they slowly crawled their way up from the stair to the hallway to the bedroom with that same position, its really amazing how they manage to do that, i mean its pretty hard. Then inside the bedroom they pound and pound, my mom still on top and she was starting to get louder, screaming while pounding on kim, kim's pants was off the knee, and my mom was still wearing that mini skirt but her panty was off, she really sounds hot screaming, seems it was the sex of her life. about 20 min of screaming and screaming i got worried that our neighbor might hear it because our neighbor's house has just 3 meters setback away from ours, and it seems my mom dont care about it. they were pounding for 10-15min then it cum and i knew the way they scream its done, i quickly went down and out, i went back to the court, i finished watching the game with my brother, then after 25 min my brother and i went home, then i saw my cousin watching tv downstairs and my mom was taking a shower upstairs like nothing happened. then i just zip my mouth never told anybody about it and i think about it every night and masterbate about it. poor dad, he didnt know about my mom's erotic sex with my cousin kim, i dont want to ruin our family because of it, my mom and dad still happily married today.

Harley Avenue Realignment
In order to allow for development around the Will Rogers Memorial Center, Freese and Nichols provided design services for the realignment of Harley Avenue.
Freese and Nichols evaluated how to route a large upstream drainage area through the project while considering downstream ecological impacts to the multiple stakeholders in this active community. This project involved extensive coordination with these stakeholders, including Fort Worth Botanic Garden, potential future upstream improvements in the Eastern Arlington Heights neighborhood, site-specific environmental constraints set forth by deed restrictions on a large tract in the project area, and local drainage concerns on Harley Avenue. The entire project was on a fast-track design and the construction schedule, which was broken into two phases, was driven by deed restrictions.
The first phase included the final design and construction of approximately 1,200 linear feet of two 9-foot by 6-foot box culverts and repaving of Harley Avenue between University and Rip Johnson. This phase was started in 2010 and construction was completed in the spring of 2011.
The second phase is twice as long, with half the time to complete it. This phase included the design of the new Harley roadway from Rip Johnson to Montgomery, a new traffic signal at El Campo and Montgomery, 2,000 linear feet of two 11-foot by 6-foot box culverts, 1,000 linear feet of 7-foot by 7-foot box culverts, downstream channel improvements, and utility relocations. Phase 2 is currently under construction and is scheduled to be complete by the end of 2012, prior to the 2013 Stock Show.
