Nigerian equities reopened yesterday with a tinge of profit-taking as considerable selloff in many large-cap stocks depressed the overall market position to a net loss of N46 billion. After rallying a net capital gain of N756 billion in the third quarter, the fourth quarter started with portfolio rebalancing aimed at monetizing capital gains and realigned portfolio composition.
The main value indices at the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) showed a largely negative market situation, with average day-on-day decline of 0.38 per cent, equivalent to net capital depreciation of N46 billion. This depressed the average year-to-date return to 31.37 per cent.
The All Share Index (ASI)-the value-based index that tracks share prices at the Exchange, declined to 35,306.09 points as against its opening index of 35,439.98 points. Aggregate market value of all quoted equities also dropped from its opening value of N12.217 trillion to close at N12.171 trillion.
The negative market situation was due to preponderance of losers to gainers, especially within the highly capitalised stocks. There were 22 losers to 18 gainers while almost three-quarters of quoted companies were unchanged.
Nestle Nigeria-the highest-priced stock at the Exchange, led the losers with a loss of N5.11 to close at N1,215. Nigerian Breweries-the second most capitalised stock, followed with a loss of N3 to close at N162. Dangote Cement-the most capitalised quoted company, trailed with a drop of N2.99 to close at N210. Forte Oil lost N1.80 to close at N48.10. PZ Cussons Nigeria declined by N1.27 to close at N24.23. GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Nigeria dropped by N1 to close at N21. Cadbury Nigeria dipped by 53 kobo to close at N10.46 while Ecobank Transnational Incorporated lost 30 kobo to close at N17.20 per share.
The momentum of activities however improved with above-average turnover. Investors traded 634.32 million shares valued at N5.79 billion in 3,850 deals. Banks dominated the activities chart. FCMB Group was the most active stock with a turnover of 370.40 million shares worth N378 million. FBN Holdings placed second with 33.99 million shares valued at N193.59 million while Guaranty Trust Bank ranked third with 33.48 million shares worth N1.34 billion.
On the positive side, Total Nigeria led the gainers with a gain of N4 to close at N235. Guinness Nigeria followed with addition of N3.49 to close at N98.50. Lafarge Africa rose by N1.34 to close at N52.02. Zenith Bank added 61 kobo to close at N24.01. Stanbic IBTC Holdings chalked up 51 kobo to close at N40.01 while Dangote Sugar Refinery and Union Bank of Nigeria rose by 23 kobo each to close at N13.93 and N5.99 respectively.

Downtown Enumclaw will be filled with tunes of all types Saturday as the fifth annual Enumclaw Music Festival brings performers to three stages.
The event, free to the public, is again sponsored by the Chalet Arts Showcase Theater.
Festival organizers have dedicated Saturday morning to the children of the community, scheduling entertainers geared toward the younger set. On Stage One, Brian Vogan and Danika Morrow kick things off with "kindie rock" at 9 a.m., followed by singer-songwriter Nancy Stewart at 10:30 and crowd favorite Eric Ode at noon. Ode is making his fourth festival appearance.
Stage One, at the corner of Cole Street and Initial Avenue, will also have performances by the Cascade Recorder Consort at 1:30; keyboardist Norm Ballas at 3; Blue Slide, jazz and blues, at 4:30; The Michael Trew Band, alternative rock, 6 p.m.; and jazz standards from ORB at 7:30.
Stage Two, at the intersection of Initial and Porter Street, features the Federal Way Harmony Kings at 9 a.m.; Jazz Distraction at 11; The Local Boys, classic rock, from 1 to 2 p.m.; The Pleasure Hounds, more classic rock, 3 p.m.; The Clover Creek Ramblers, Celtic/bluegrass, 5 p.m.; and The Ryders Band, Americana/bluegrass, from 7 to 8 p.m.
Stage Three, at Porter Avenue and Griffin Street, opens with the blues/soul sound of Boots and the Broken Laces at 10 a.m. and includes a tribute to 1990s rock with Blackbox from noon to 1 p.m. Following are Celtic Treble at 2 p.m.; The Forgotten 45's, indie rock, 4 p.m.; and Americana sounds from the Rece Jay Band at 6 p.m. The day closes with a rock/country band, The 410's, playing from 8 to 9 p.m.
The festival is all about music, but also includes food and art vendors, along with a beer garden.

You may have noticed that when transferring between your development and production environments, your finely-crafted WordPress site will completely break.
The fact that the url for the site has changed forces you to run a good old find-and-replace on the MySQL backup to swap all instances of the url ro fix all the links – however in certain themes the whole look of the site has broken.
This is to do with discrepancies in the length of the url, and the way in which serialised php arrays are stored.
The culprit is the array held in the

Free speech and freedom of the press are guaranteed by the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Now, as we face daily assaults against the free press under accusations that they convey "fake news," we may want to consider how such challenges affect democracy's future.
Free press. On the local, state, and federal levels, we rely on elected officials to represent us after taking an oath to defend the Constitution. The success and integrity of this form of government ultimately depends on our being well informed so we can choose representatives well. Such informed participation requires access to timely, accurate, and factually substantiated news, whether consumed from broadcast, print, or internet outlets.
Throughout history, our leaders have counted on the free press to shed light on what government and its leaders are doing. In 1823, Thomas Jefferson wrote, "The only security of all is in a free press. The force of public opinion cannot be resisted when permitted freely to be expressed."
The 1954 See It Now news broadcasts of Edward R Murrow exposed U.S. Senator Joseph McCarthy's fabricated attacks on supposed communist sympathizers. Murrow summarized the impact of the free press on that situation: "We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty."
President John F. Kennedy said about the free press that, "Without debate, without criticism, no Administration and no country can succeed, no republic can survive. . . . We intend to accept full responsibility for our errors, and we expect you to point them out when we miss them."
We do hear support for press freedom from some leaders today. Senator John Mc Cain stated in 2017, "I hate the press, but . . . we need [it]. . . . If you want to preserve democracy as we know it, you have to have a free and many times adversarial press. Without it, we would lose so much of our individual liberties over time. That's how dictators get started." President George W. Bush in 2017 reflected that, "Power can be very addictive and . . . corrosive. It's important for the media to call to account people who abuse their power."
Fake news. So how does the term "fake news" relate to the free press? "Fake news" is a term used to undermine the traditional press channels. Some people apply the term to factual journalism that a politician or reader doesn't agree with or considers as critical, even though it may be factually true. Others apply the term to made-up stories (propaganda, flat out lies, or conspiracy theories) that are shared in social media and tabloids to shape public opinion.
For many people, distortions of truth can blur the lines between "fake news" and factual reporting. Of concern for our democracy, the "fake news" message is eroding confidence in our free press; a 2018 Monmouth University poll found that 3 out of 4 Americans now believe that traditional news organizations report "fake news."
Fact checking. So how then can you distinguish between news that's fake and news that's real?
If a story sounds outrageous or extreme, or if you've heard a slogan (talking point) over and over from multiple leaders, it may be a good target for fact checking. Several fact checking resources are available to online users.
Snopes.com offers tips to help spot fake news and exposes misinformation, fabricated messaging, distortions, and viral claims that lack factual grounds. It also maintains a list of known fake news websites.
FactCheck.org (or Ask FactCheck.org) answers online questions about viral e-mails and social media memes to verify their accuracy. Its additional tips include reading the whole story, beyond the provocative headline; determining whether the story represents factual or editorial content; and assessing its origin and factual foundation (Does it come from a legitimate news organization or a source with known bias?) The Washington Post fact checker and PolitiFact.com are additional resources for credible and responsible news fact checking.
We all have our own political and social opinions, perspectives, and biases, and most of us gravitate to those information resources that reflect our own views. If you're willing to access a variety of credible news sources (whether in social, broadcast, or print media), you may be able to compare your interpretation to the differing views and perceptions of others. Doing so may give you insights about which perspectives can be substantiated by facts and which may be fabrications.
Our challenge today, as citizens and voters, is to ensure that we are well informed despite an increasingly divisive and partisan political environment. We're all exposed to widely conflicting news reports, misleading and partisan social media messages, editorial commentaries that masquerade as news, and extreme media opinions crafted to skew our thinking.
Fake news features treat us as though we're lazy and gullible. So instead of swallowing what we hear or read without testing, we can become more responsible news consumers by ensuring that we distinguish facts from editorial opinions and by exercising critical thinking about the issues and the players. Doing so will help us elect policy makers who will defend our constitutional principles and values.
In the words of Yale History Professor Timothy Snyder, "To abandon facts is to abandon freedom." So much for fake news.

Sorrell predicts rapid correction
The economic situation for the global communications industry could get worse before it gets better, according to WPP Group chief executive Sir Martin Sorrell.
Speaking at the British Design & Art Direction Education Summer School for creativity in business last week, Sorrell described the economic climate as 'a rapid correction' of the excesses [of the share valuations of digital businesses] in the late 1990s. This could hit employment prospects and lead to more freelance than full-time opportunities in the creative industries.
Sorrell says that the high media cost and falling audiences for network television is encouraging more global clients to invest communication budgets away from TV advertising to the Web, direct marketing and sales promotion.

Our Winston-Salem therapists are solution-focused, offering individual therapy , couple therapy & marriage counseling.
Individuals often struggle with feelings of anxiety, depression or find themselves in a perpetual cycle of re-experiencing painful life situations. Wanting to understand our experience and learn healthy life strategies is a pursuit worthy of exploration in therapy. With a professional outside point of view, clients often discover the inner resources and develop strategies that can make the difference in their lives.
We have a very effective coaching style to couples counseling that is hands-on and interactive. Through this solution-focused format we can help couples reduce harmful behavior and begin to treat each other with respect and love. With the help of a therapist, couples can begin to stop harming each other, develop a better understanding of their issues and develop the skills and tools necessary to find happiness.
If you are looking for a down-to-earth Winston-Salem therapist who integrates interactive exchange, direct feedback, and goal-focused therapy, you've come to the right place.
Dave is a licensed psychologist with more than 20 years experience in the mental
health field. Dave is located in Winston-Salem, NC and has appointment availability
during evenings and on Saturdays. Like most therapists, Dave is able to help with general
problems in mood, such as anxiety and depression. While he is able to help with a variety
of mental health concerns, he specializes in several areas.
A focus of Dave's work is helping individuals, couples, and families with
relationship concerns. He finds it extremely fulfilling when he is able to help people
repair damaged relationships and experience the relationships they desire.
Dave also specializes in helping families and individuals cope with challenges
associated with aging and chronic illness. Life changes due to illnesses such as diabetes,
arthritis, or dementia can be extremely difficult. Support from a psychologist who is
skilled in helping people cope with such challenges can greatly increase quality of life
and can in many cases improve health.
Finally, Dave has advanced training and experience with integrating spirituality into
psychotherapy. Research has consistently demonstrated the positive role spirituality plays
in overall health. Dave's faith background is Christian, but he is pleased to serve people
regardless of their spiritual perspectives (or lack of faith commitment).
Dave has been married since 1996 and has two daughters. He enjoys technology,
marksmanship, and the outdoors.
Couples Counseling – $145 per session
First of all, Relationship Counseling Center specializes in relationship issues—all therapists can specialize in different things—this is what we do best. We work with individuals and couples. When couples come in, we're going to create a space without judgment or blame and we're going to help you get to the heart of the matter. I often find that when clients are really clear about what's going on between them and they have a deeper understanding of one another, they can begin to treat each other more respectfully.
We're known for teaching the right communication skills and tools that are necessary for you to have a healthy relationship. I believe as a therapist that is very vital. We're not just listening to you each and every session; we're active participants giving you the tools that you need, helping you with those during session and really promoting you taking them home.
Everybody that works at my center is not only licensed, but everyone has enough life experience to back up their skillset. We're direct, we're interactive, we're solution-focused. With our help, you're going to create some relationship goals for yourself. It's very important to have those when you go to counseling. First of all, it's going to let you know how you're doing and if you're getting your money's worth out of counseling. We can make adjustments if we need to along the way. And it's also going to inform all of us when it's time to end therapy because you've achieved your goal, and that is the ultimate goal of going to counseling; we want that too.
A first step could be just to give me a call. I could answer any additional questions that you might have. And if everything feels good, I'm going to have the Winston-Salem, NC therapist give you a call. They're going to call you as soon as possible and you can talk to them on the phone, get to know them. It's a great first step in easing into that first session. They're probably going to ask you a little bit about why you're coming in, and they're going to tell you all the times that you can see them in the evening and the daytime throughout the week so that you can come in. We also see people usually within 24 to 48 hours.
We specialize in marriage counseling and couples therapy, we work with people who are married and unmarried, but we also work with individuals who are in committed relationships. I'm pleasantly surprised at how much can happen for an individual when they work on themselves and then bring that skillset back into their relationship or perhaps learn how to take care of themselves better. We work with people who are dating who really want to get married and find that right life partner, and want to make really good, healthy decisions when they're dating.
We do premarital counseling. We're going to help you, with your communication styles, find a really good strategy for you to move forward and hopefully miss some of the road bumps that a lot of other folks might have.
We also are licensed therapists and even though you pay out-of-pocket, you might have something called out-of-network coverage. You can call your insurance company and find out. And if you do, your therapist can give you an invoice and you might be able to get some money back. And sometimes people even pay for therapy using something like flex spending or health savings accounts. So if you have something like that, you might want to look into it.
Now, if you haven't noticed, we have a lot of articles and videos on this website. You probably could search through our videos and find a relationship issue that you're currently going through, and maybe even some advice that might help you today. Those videos are free and they're meant for you. It's also a great way to get to know who we are and the kinds of advice that we give. It'll help you make a decision if we are the right therapists for you.
I hope this helps. And if there's anything else you need, let us know. Thank you.

In the media teenagers are stereotypically presented as antisocial 'yobs', news articles are frequently written about how the young generation of today spend their time illegally drinking and taking drugs resulting in violent crimes and underage pregnancy. This is an extreme view of teenagers however our representation of the teenagers in our text does not challenge this view, it just portrays it in a milder manor.This meant incorporating in our narrative that our characters are sexual active, drinking and smoking into our plot. We had originally planned on inputting drug references as well however we found achieving verisimiltude with that rather difficult so instead we left it out.
Another typical label of youths is the term 'Hoody' which we also incorporated into our text through the costume we picked out for the cast, the males as well as one of the females, in only one shot, are seen wearing hooded tops. The countertype for this typical teenage image is our final girl, as she is seen wearing wearing a smart black blazer. This helps to anchor the preffered reading that she is the final girl and doesn't partake in typical teenage activities which are seen as immoral.
Yorkshire as a region is steretypically represented as being an area full of eneducated working class farmers, this has come about from television programmes such as 'Emmerdale' and 'Heartbeat'. Also some well known films such as 'This Is England' have been set in Yorkshire, and once again the predominent class seen in this film is the working class which isn't renouned for being very intelligent. In effect we did nothing to either match or reject this stereotype, other than the fact that the characters are camping in an rural location which is more typical of teenagers northern regions than perhaps those in the south or living in inner cities. Our cast were not nessessarily given lines which would protray them as being unintelligent, however it is possible that this could be picked up by an audience as a negotiated reading.
Because we have used a local cast from the region of Yorkshire we avoided casting our characters as 'AB upper class' as this would have been less believable that they were upper class with yorkshire accents.
As well as this if we wanted a wider target audience appeal so we needed to widen the class bracket we worked with, therefore having middle class characters allows more people to be able to relate with their characters.

Thanks Dr. Johnson
Have been visiting with Carefree Chiropractic for several years receiving Chiropractic treatments for my back, neck, wrists, headache pains. I had about 6 months that I was unable to get care with Dr. Johnson and found I was in a lot of pain and felt like I was 90 years old! With my consistent treatments for all of my pain issues, I have de-aged to at least 60! I am getting there. They are very patient with my appts. as I work all over southern Colorado and am not always too prompt and I appreciate their tolerance of me. What a great atmosphere of kindness and positive thinking! I will continue to trust Carefree Chiropractic for many years to come.

This is a very welcoming and caring practice. They want to know how you are, and take time to listen. I have enjoyed my 1 1/2 here, and will continue to maintenance my health.
Hurt In Car Accident
I had a car accident about 2 years ago and was experiencing alot of pain, numbness, and discomfort. I went to a chiropractor and was not feeling any better, i was recommended to Dr. J and WOW! I am more active now, the pain has subsided, and so has most of the numbness, i look forward to coming in and getting adjusted to get my day started right, Thank you Dr J and his wonderful staff.
Injured On The Job
In 1999 i was injured on the job. My whole life changed. Could not lift over 50 lbs, shoveling snow and raking leaves would cause back pain. I Was going to another Chiropractor and was not getting any better. I thought that i was always going to be that way. Then I started to go to Carefree Chiropractic in 2007; now I am able to lift over 50 lbs and rake and shovel all day. Thanks to Dr.Johnson.
Direct Benefit
I broke my back (L1) in 2006 in a car wreck. I and have seen 4 chiropractors, been to yoga for a year, gotten lots of great massages, do my core exercises when I can, and I feel I need back support in order to feel less back pain. Dr Johnson has been the first chiropractor where I feel a direct benefit every visit I make! I do recommend Dr J. to my friends with back issues as life is fast – so live it well!
Suffering From Dizzy Spells
I have been suffering from dizzy spells, blackouts, severe weakness and and a big loss of strength in my legs, making it very difficult to walk even a short distance, for the past 6 to 8 months. When I experienced this, I would also have discomfort in my back between my shoulder blades. Often, when this occurred I felt like I was just going to keel over and die. I was referred to Dr. Johnson by a friend. Since I started coming to Dr. Johnson, I have been improving with each adjustment. Now, after my last adjustment, I have not had one dizzy spell or blackout and I feel so different. I have lots more strength in my legs, no difficulty breathing and generally lots more strength. I feel great. Just the fact that I don't feel like I am going to drop dead is a great relief. Dr. Johnson is great at what he does and I highly recommend him to everyone.
Helped With Baby Delivery
Dr. Doug is great! I had some serious pain in my back while I was pregnant. One adjustment and it was gone! I kept going to get an adjustment up until I had my baby, and I had a very easy delivery! Thank You Dr. Johnson.
Terrible Lower Back Pain
My friend referred me to Dr. J in May. Now in August and Im feeling so much better. I could barely get out of bed. Lower back pain made that a hard thing. I'm too young for that! I noticed results within the first 3 weeks. I have chosen to maintain my health with chiropractic. The office staff is SO nice and they have great music! I recommend Carefree Chiropractic's services all the time!
I couldn't do my job if it wasn't for the wonderful care I receive on a weekly basis from these two amazing Doctors. Thank you Carefree Chiropractic! Read More

Nonnegative local martingales, Novikov's and Kazamaki's criteria, and the distribution of explosion times
Stochastic Analysis Seminar Series
I will give a new proof for the famous criteria by Novikov and Kazamaki, which provide sufficient conditions for the martingale property of a nonnegative local martingale. The proof is based on an extension theorem for probability measures that can be considered as a generalization of a Girsanov-type change of measure.
In the second part of my talk I will illustrate how a generalized Girsanov formula can be used to compute the distribution of the explosion time of a weak solution to a stochastic differential equation.

WHAT: Ipswich artists, Andrew Anderson-Bell and David "Stoney" Stone,
Exhibition: "Two Views: Pastel and Photography"
WHERE: The Gallery at Grosvenor Park Health Center at 7 Loring Hills Avenue, Salem near Vinnin Square. Call (978) 741 -5700 for further information.
WHEN: Oct. 28 through Nov. 30. Opening reception Sunday, Oct. 29, 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. in the first floor gallery.
Gallery hours: 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. weekdays, and from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. weekends.
ABOUT THE SHOW: Painter Andrew Anderson-Bell and photographer David Stone join forces in show of pastel paintings and photography during the month of November at the Grosvenor Gallery.
Anderson-Bell, a Rhode Island School of Design graduate, is a representational landscape artist who paints in pastel. He initially pursued graphic design and photography. The immediacy of the medium, the vibrancy of the colors and the diversity of mark making inspired him to pursue a career in pastel art.
The beaches, horse pastures, farmland and particularly salt marsh estuaries of the North Shore are captured in his landscapes.
As lifelong summer resident of North Haven, Maine, much of his subject matter also depicts vibrant landscape scenes from North Haven and islands of Penobscot Bay.
Photographer David Stone has been in the photographic and imaging business since the early 1970's, after completing studies at the New England School of Photography.
Stone considers himself primarily a photographer of the natural scene, though he is also drawn to scenes where light, shadow and line are at play. He is on the staff at Boston's Museum of Fine Arts.
Stone has led workshops in Rockport, Gloucester and Ipswich for the Trustees of Reservations at the Crane Estate and is a member of and exhibitor at Marblehead and Newburyport art associations. Stone shows annually at the Crane Estate Art Show and as a medici artist, he shows annually at the School. Stone recently won honorable mention at this years' Topsfield Fair Art Show in the professional photographers division.

Banner Collections
There are now two Banner Collection albums:
Both have been recently updated. Hover over a banner image to see information on that banner. With the Club Banners, I have tried to include information on the Club (location and RI District) and about the contributor [name, and date].
The Club information is reasonably compete but frequently very hard to come by, particularly in countries where the roman alphabet is not normally used. Club names are not used consistently and are frequently not clear from the RI Club Finder database. Where available, I have used the club name as it appears in the Club's website - which may vary somewhat from the banner itself - usually it is just a matter of form: RC of where's-it, or where's-it RC.
The information I have on contributors is quite sparse and may not be accurate; if you are able to provide me with additional information it would be greatly appreciated.
When you present a banner to the Club, it is very helpful if you write your name on the back and add any information about how and when it came into your possession. We can then photograph and catalog it - and return it to you.
Because of space considerations the Club is no longer retaining banners but the photos do provide a nice historical record of our members' perambulations and of visitors to our Club.

|You will find the patent info in PanAmerican Seed. Clear Crystal Lavender Shades PAS501338, Purple Shades PAS501342, White PAS501344
Most Ball Seed plant varieties are a PanAmerican Patent. See if you can get a catalogue from your Ball Hort area rep. I have a 2012 and expect my 2013 catalogue next week. The web site sometimes doesn't have the patent No on it, but the printed catalogue does
Hope it helps

|Thanks for the patent application information Joanne. Do they list cultivars names in the catalog? Does someone knows how to find/search patent applications? The only engine I've found is this one: http://patft.uspto.gov/

Nov 25, 2012 3:22 PM CST
|Look on the link: They call the Scientific name: Lobularia maritima
Nov 25, 2012 3:31 PM CST
Plants Admin Emeritus
|Yes I know, that's in the initial post. I'm trying to pin down if they've introduced these with trade names or a cv. name, which will likely show up in a patent.
Nov 25, 2012 6:06 PM CST
|In my opinion, we need to consider our audience. What's important to me, as an ATP member is being able to search a plant in our database by what my plant tag says it's called. I am totally supportive of the true documented cultivar info being there, but truly, if I bought Alyssum Clear Crystal Purple Shades and took a picture of it, I would hope that I could type in Alyssum Clear Crystal and see the variety Purple Shades be a ATP search result. If I was entering this particular one, I would put the Genus Lobularia, species as maritima, the cultivar name as "Alyssum Clear Crystal Purple Shade" Trade Name as Alyssum Clear Crystal Purple Shades. But that's just me and trying to keep the info of what we see for plant tags and such usable with our database as it's set up. The way we have it set up, it's almost too rigid and resulted in compromises. For example, we can not use the "Series" field for the Petunia data base, since a huge number are with patents pending and no patented cultivar name. The choice is have a data base of "only" patented varieties or open it up to what's being sold. From what I can see, we can not enter a Trade Name with out the cultivar name, so what I have done in Petunias is put the trade name in the cultivar name as well. Otherwise our database will be very very tiny. When it come to annuals, we need to have all the new varieties, since that is what the market will be flooded with. Most new varieties will have a patent pending and not numbered or registered cultivar name. So if we don't have a separate option for pending patents, then our best choice is putting that tradename in the cultivar field.
This entire name thing is awful. It doesn't seem that we have a great option for annuals, specifically, since those change so frequently and tons of new varieties pop up every season. Perhaps there needs to be some thoughts put towards the database and how to handle the mass amount of "new annual varieties" each year of many plant genus

|I agree, Joanne. I don't even understand some of the questions about the database names, let alone the answers. And I've gotten a lot of messages for entries I've made, saying they were being moved to another plant name. I understand wanting to have the latest, greatest undated names, but if you get too technical it will discourage home gardeners who never heard of your newfangled names. And I think it also discourages people from making new entries.
It happens that I entered Allysum Clear Crystal White a long time ago, and it was approved by someone. Did I screw up again?
Alyssum (Lobularia maritima 'Clear Crystal White')

|I can respond to Karen's frustration with the frequent name changes. This is a new database and it started out with the incorporation of considerable amounts of data from other databases that either are out of date, such as The Plant List, or are regrettably lacking in quality control, such as many nursery websites and other gardening websites. We're gradually updating the information, using more current and more reliable sources, and once that has been done, the name changes should be quite infrequent and shouldn't create so many problems.
There's no reason that this should discourage new entries because these are now checked against the current sources and are either approved or declined for a valid reason.
Your Clear Crystal White entry looks fine to me, and even if it is updated at some point with the addition of a patented cultivar name, it still will show up as Clear Crystal White in a search of the database because the trade name overrides the cultivar name in the sorting and alphabetization processes.

Do you have packages?
Well, yes and no.
I usually shoot 8 hours of continuous coverage, and include a curated selection of approximately 700 images. The images will be high resolution files, with print rights. You can print and share all you like.The copyright remains with the photographer, which is an industry standard.
I include a beautiful fine-art photography book that captures the spirit of your day, and tells the story of your Wedding in an artistic editorial style. Additional books can be ordered as required.
You sort of create your own package.
Do you travel?
Not really. I have become a local girl lately. I love shooting Weddings on Vancouver Island and surrounding areas. I have shot Weddings in seven countries, and I am happiest closer to home these days. Vancouver is fine though.
How do you work?
I am an editorial style Wedding photographer. I am happiest when I am deeply immersed in capturing your day as it naturally unfolds. Of course, I spend some time taking family photos, I just really tend to focus on documenting the magic of your day. Because I shot fashion and advertising in Toronto for many years, I think this also informs my work. It's natural for me to quickly find the best angles, to seek the most flattering light. Because I have directed T.V. commercials, I think my work has a natural sense of movement. I am very comfortable with transitioning between the stillness of a portrait, and shooting completely unscripted moments.
I seek to strike a balance, candid moments, beautiful portraits, and lovely details. Together, these images tell the story of your Wedding day, in an artistic and authentic way.
We want to hire you, what can we expect to spend?
Thank-you. I would be honoured to collaborate with you, and be part of your carefully curated team of event specialists.
An investment of $3000.00 - $5600.00 is pretty standard. It really depends on how much time you need, and how many additional fine-art books you require. Everyone has different requirements. Call me directly, and we can talk about your Wedding day in detail. I welcome all enquiries. If you are getting married in the "shoulder season" ask me about my special rates.
GINA-RAE HORVATH photographing Weddings on Vancouver Island, and the Gulf Islands. Capturing the beautiful memories of your Wedding day forever.

As beginnings to seasons where your team is aspiring for greatness unseen in 35 plus years go, the 2015-2016 NBA season has proved to be a disappointment for my beloved hometown Washington Wizards. 32 games into the current season, the Wizards are sitting out of the playoff picture with a 15-17 record. More glaring than the sub-par record and the gaudy 103.8 points per game surrendered on the defensive end though are the number of games missed by key players. Through the first 32, Gary Neal has missed eight games, Bradley Beal has been absent for 15, Nenê has sat for 17 contests and Drew Gooden's played a paltry 7 (missing 25). The effects have been obvious in recent games, particularly the second quarter of last week's game in Toronto and this past Sunday's safe-to-leave-with-10-minutes-to-go-in-the-fourth-quarter loss at home to the Miami Heat. Ouch!
But in the malaise that has largely dominated the season so far, there has been a real bright spot on the die-hard Wizards collectible front: the release of the season's first bobblehead as the centerpiece of the G Wiz Kids' Club package. This year's honored player is none other than Otto Porter, occupying the spot pioneered two years ago by my former favorite Wizard Martell Webster and filled in admirably by G Wiz last year. It's ironic that I put Otto on my bobblehead shelf (OK...one of my bobblehead shelves) the day I had to turn my Martell bobble to face backwards on the day of his release from the team as is my custom. All-Stars and retired jerseys are exempted from this rule, just to clarify.
Now of course, if you want an Otto Porter bobblehead, you'll have to pony up the $20 (or $18 for season ticket holders - woo hoo!) for a Kids' Club membership. But considering the alternative to get your hands on a giveaway quality Wizards bobblehead is to wait until the release of the John Wall bobblehead on gameday against the Charlotte Hornets on April 10, the $20 feels like it's way worth it. My niece now has three Kids' Club bobbleheads held in trust for her by her favorite uncle on her mother's side. She has no idea how lucky she will be one day.
Otto's bobblehead, which photographs beautifully in front of the large Wizards box used to hold our season ticket holder gym bag gift, is standing holding a basketball and wearing the knee pads Otto frequently wears on court. ALL basketball bobbleheads it seems have to have a ball; the DeShawn Stevenson bobble-hand and G Wiz bobble-belly that I have do not but that's because they are variations on the theme I'm assuming. Otto's bobble is also smiling as bobbleheads have a tendency to do and he's standing on the circular "piece of court" base that the Wizards have commissioned for their bobblehead "giveaways" the past couple of seasons.
As bobbleheads go, Otto is definitely firmly in the "free" quality category. The paintwork is a little sloppy and almost seems rubbed off in some spots (I guess traveling from China in a styrofoam packed box can be rough). I applaud the attempt to duplicate the silver threading on the edge of the numbers but it can't overcome the overall imprecise paint job on the rest of his body. The Wizards certainly didn't request the best craftsmen over there on the other side of the Pacific like they did with the season ticket holder set of bobbleheads a few years back.
One of the things I love to check about bobbleheads is the players' faces. When I first open a new bobblehead my first reaction is they don't look anything like the players they are supposed to represent. Sure, they usually get the facial hair correct and maybe the skin tone comes close but most of these things look like the Wizards just ordered the generic black man head bobblehead and then someone painted the correct number on the jersey. This is not intended to be racially insensitive. I only have one white bobblehead and that's long haired Mike Miller, which I think the Wizards specified with the generic white female tennis player head.
My first reaction to checking out Otto's face was the same as my typical new bobble reaction: "This thing doesn't look anything like Otto." But a closer look reveals that they got the component parts pretty close even though the ensemble really only resembles Otto in a folk art sort of way. They got the side of the mouth smile pretty close, albeit with the lips up at the left of the mouth rather than down. They also got the shape of the eyes correct and the facial hair spot on, although as I've previously pointed out, that one's sort of a gimme. The eyebrows and nose also look pretty good and the hairline is almost perfect, although admittedly it appears to be the exact mirror opposite of Otto's actual hair line.
Overall, I think Otto's a pretty good choice here. Otto may have the highest participation for a player at Kids' Club events, even dressing up for halloween this year in his third season on the team. And as a guy firmly deserving of a starting spot this year, it's an appropriate time to release a bobblehead in his honor, even if it did cost $20. Sorry, $18. I can't wait until April 4. Just three months until the next Wizards bobblehead. I hope I can last that long.
|Gotta have the gold championship tag on the back. The paintwork on Otto leaves a lot to be desired.

Donkey, Water Buffalo and Goat Found in South African Meat Products
What's for dinner?
Donkey, water buffalo and goat were found in meat products sold in South Africa.
Reuters reported:
Donkey, water buffalo and other unconventional ingredients have been found in almost two thirds of hamburgers and sausages tested in South Africa, a study released on Tuesday showed.
The tests by the University of Stellenbosch were planned before a scandal broke out in Europe over horsemeat labelled as beef that raised concerns worldwide over the risks to human health from a complex and nebulous meat supply chain.
"Our study confirms that the mislabelling of processed meats is commonplace in South Africa and not only violates food labelling regulations, but also poses economic, religious, ethical and health impacts," co-author Louw Hoffman of the university's Department of Animal Sciences, said in a statement.

The high heat of Northern California and a finicky oven have put me in a state of "baking withdrawal". So when the heat abated at the beginning of this week, I got busy in the kitchen. What a great feeling to get my hands on some yeast dough again! I love the process of mixing, kneading, and proofing dough.
This recipe is the perfect combination of hands on and carefree: you spend a little time mixing and folding the dough, then into the refrigerator it goes for a cool, overnight rise. On day two you shape and proof the dough for the second time, and voila, two beautiful braids of challah. The resulting loaves are light and delicate but full of flavor. You can top them with the traditional poppy or sesame seeds, or use the dough for a cinnamon-raisin loaf. Once baked the challah can be frozen, tightly wrapped, and then presented at a later date, after a quick warming in the oven.
The recipe is part of Food52's Genius Recipes collection. I followed it exactly as it's written, and I was thrilled with the results. You can find it here. If you need a "baking fix", and you love yeasted loaves, give this one a try. Your family and friends will thank you.

Arthur Crabtree wrote:Chris Silverwood had a reputation for unusual pace, but tended to be a bit gun barrel. And was often injured. I prefer the famously unhealthy James Ormond in a head to head. Pretty contrasting personalities.
Im giving Ormond a free pass. His debut test was played on what is possibly the most docile pitch I have ever witnessed in a home test match, when England for some undeniably crazy reason picked 4 bowlers and no batters who could even be considered worthy enough as part timers. I believe, seeing the pitch had nothing in it, Nasser ended up asking Ormond after a few overs of full speed to start improvising and bowling off spin. I believe he bowled virtually the whole of a near 700 run innings as a spinner.
He then got a second bite away in India on a pitch where none of the paceman made any impression (Richard Dawson outbowled everyone, thats how bad it was) on either team, facing what would be arguably the best batting line up ever created in unhelpful conditions.
He could have been the next Glenn McGrath, but no one is going to do well given those two tests as chances.

The Epiphany of the Lord - 4 January 2015 - Lectionary #20
The Epiphany of the Lord, the great solemnity when the Church remembers the figures of the three wise men from the east, marks the revelation of the Christ child to the Magi, and symbolically through them, the revelation of the good news of his coming to the whole world.
We call them "wise men", yet their wisdom was not worldly; in fact the credulity of the Magi contrasts sharply with the cunning of Herod. Yet the Magi are not fools, they have based their long journey on careful scrutiny of the night skies, much as travelers all across the globe have done until recent times. Even after their audience with Herod they cautiously wend their way from Jerusalem to Bethlehem, following the star's movements all the while. When it comes to the object of their search, however, their faith is not measured and calculated, but absolute and implicit: the Magi accept without hesitation that a newborn king of the Jews had come to Israel, and they offer him profound reverence, even worship.
Their encounter with the revelation of the Christ child is so clear and so neat; how is ours? The paragraph above points out that faith has to do with two elements of the human person: our will and our intellect. In the case of the magi, their desire to worship "the newborn King of the Jews" urged them on, and their intellect guided them along the way, guileless though they were. We must employ our will in consciously desiring to believe and in moving ourselves toward that end, yet we must also use the intellect that God gave us to carefully weigh the objects of faith brought before us. Long separated from the worldview of the Magi then, when it comes to matters of religion, how do we protect ourselves from the twin dangers of cynicism and naivete?
In our modern day reception of the Word of God's revelation and our encounter with our faith, we must face these opposing possibilities, giving in neither to a false certainty about the power of our intellect, nor to an all-too-eager reception of ideas that could lead us astray. Both can derail our journey to adore the Christ child, to share in his life and teaching, and to inherit the redemptive fruits of his cross and resurrection.
When it comes to revelation and its legitimate interpretation the Church has long told her members that we must bring all of our intellect to bear on the mystery of salvation-yet not to presume that we can entirely grasp it by that intellect alone. Similarly the Church has counseled her faithful that we are not to be credulous, rejecting the rightful place of the intellect in our journey of belief, and preferring old wives tales or superstition to the living Word.
How do we strike a balance then, between the twin dangers of religious naiveté and smug empiricism when it comes to what we believe? Years ago, the then Anglican minister, now Catholic blessed John Henry Newman proposed that it is love which serves as "the safeguard of faith against superstition". Love acts as well to protect a person from the arrogance of false intellectual pride, for it tolerates neither folly nor hubris.
As we begin a new year with great hopes and aspirations may we imitate the Magi and let the love-the greatest of the Christian and human virtues-be the moving force behind our faith, enabling us to enter into the mystery of the Christ child with both humility over his gracious invitation to us, and joy over his sharing his nature and wisdom with us through the gift of divine revelation. Together then, we will be able to say with Isaiah the prophet: Rise up in splendor, Jerusalem! Your light has come, the glory of the Lord shines upon you. (Isa 60:1).

UK life UK culture: adjusting to British life
UK cultural icons
The UK is a great place to live as well as study. It is a vibrant, fun multicultural country with beautiful scenery, historic sights and some of the best museums, art galleries and cinemas in the world.
Go to studentstories.co.uk to listen to British and international students talking about their experiences of studying at UK universities.
'Culture shock' is a term used to describe the impact of moving from a familiar culture to one that is unfamiliar. It can affect anyone, including international students. It includes the shock of a new environment, meeting lots of new people and learning the ways of a different country. It also includes the shock of being separated from the important people in your life, maybe family, friends, colleagues, teachers: people you would normally talk to at times of uncertainty, people who give you support and guidance. When familiar sights, sounds, smells or tastes are no longer there you can miss them very much. If you are tired and jet-lagged when you arrive small things can be upsetting and out of all proportion to their real significance. The following are some of the elements that contribute to culture shock:
Climate Many students find that the British climate affects them a lot. You may be used to a much warmer climate, or you may just find the greyness and dampness, especially during the winter months, difficult to get used to.
Food You may at first find British food strange. It may taste different, or be cooked differently to what you are used to. Supermarkets throughout the UK stock a wide range of international food, as do many local shops. You will also find a wide array of restaurants in larger towns and cities, catering for all tastes.
Language Constantly listening and speaking in a foreign language is tiring. If English is not your first language, you may find that you miss your familiar language, which at home would have been part of your everyday environment. Although you may have learned English very thoroughly it is possible that the regional accents you discover when you arrive in the UK make the language harder to understand than you thought. People may also speak quickly and you may feel embarrassed to ask them to repeat what they have said.
Dress If you come from a warm climate, you may find it uncomfortable to wear heavy winter clothing. Not all students will find the style of dress different, but for others people's dress may seem immodest, unattractive, comical or simply drab.
Social roles Social behaviours may confuse, surprise or offend you. For example you may find people appear cold and distant or always in a hurry. This may be particularly likely in the centre of large cities. Or you may be surprised to see couples holding hands and kissing in public. You may find the relationships between men and women more formal or less formal than you are used to, as well as differences in same sex social contact and relationships.
Though culture shock is normally a temporary phase, it is important to know there are things you can do to help so that some of these worrying effects can be minimised. Simply understanding that this is a normal experience may in itself be helpful.
There are very positive aspects of culture shock. It can be a significant learning experience, making you more aware of aspects of your own culture as well as the new culture you have entered. In addition, the UK as a society is very diverse, with many different cultures and nationalities. The UK has a long tradition of welcoming people from different countries and many have stayed here permanently. All the world's major religions are found in the UK including Hinduism, Islam, Buddhism, Sikhism and Christianity. And even if you are feeling a little homesick, in most large cities and towns, you can find shops selling food from all over the world.

- I have a chandelier, which I would like to use your candles with the remote control . I'm looking for something about 6 inches tall in no wider than 5/8 of an inch at the base.
- I need the remote tapered candles in white which is taller than 6". Prefer 10" or 11" inch. Do you have any? I see that you have them in ivory. I don't want ivory.
- I'd like to use these in cast iron lanterns with clear glass hurricane chimneys. Will the remote work through glass?
- Does the remote work one by one or the remote shuts all of them at once?
- Where is the remote sensor on these? I would like to set them in a metal tube. I am worried the sensor won't work. Ideally I need a 6 to 8 inch tall and .5 to .75 inch diameter timer or push candle. Do you have any? No part of the candle can be greater than .75 inches. Thanks
