My London Marathon
I spent quite a bit of time in those couple of weeks worrying if I would manage to do it. Then a few days before I woke up one morning with the realisation that this might be the one and only time I got to do the London Marathon, so whatever it took I would finish it and I would blooming well enjoy it too.
And I had the extra incentive to keep me going, knowing that I was running as part of Team Ambitious, raising money and awareness for Ambitious about Autism. No further motivation was needed.
My hip behaved itself until about mile 8, and then started to get painful. I had to stop a couple of times around miles 14 and 16 to try and stretch it out. And from mile 20 I had to walk quite a few times. But, I loved every single second of it. My hope of finishing around the 4 and a half hour mark went out of the window, but the crowds kept me going every single step of the way. It's quite hard to put into words exactly how amazing they were. I had people cheering me on, telling me to keep going and I could do it, calling out what an amazing cause I was running for, giving me a massive cheer every time I started to run again after walking. It was the most amazing thing. Not only that, but having family, friends, and the Ambitious about Autism cheering points around the course really made a difference. I first saw my family just before mile 9, then again for a much needed hug just after mile 18. By that time it was hurting quite a lot, and I was thinking of the race in terms of "just to the next cheer point". I knew that the UKRunChat team would be at mile 19 and it was great to get a smile and cheer from them, then Ambitious about Autism were at mile 21.5 for a big cheer, a wave, and a huge smile. I was spurred on to mile 23 knowing that Ambitious about Autism had a samba band there. They were amazing, not to mention the supporter who spotted me coming, and ran over so that she could give me a much needed high five as I went through. I ran the whole of the last mile with one of the Runner's World Pacers. I had been near him for most of the second half so thanked him for keeping me going. We agreed that we would run the rest of the way, and it was possibly the best mile of them all. As we came up to Buckingham Palace he was whipping the crowd up to cheer extra loudly, telling me "they're cheering for you" and we crossed the line together with hands aloft, celebrating. It was something I shall never forget.
It was an absolute joy to run for Ambitious about Autism, and my fundraising total currently stands at just over £1700, more than I could have hoped for. I am particularly touched by the generosity of people who I have never even met, it's been incredible, and thank you to every single person who donated.
Being part of Team Ambitious has also meant that I got to meet the lovely Kate. Turns out we live near each, both started running for similar reasons, and have got quite a bit in common for one reason or another. Also turns out I love running with her. And turns out she's ace. So we met up with each other at the start, soaked up the atmosphere together, had a lot of fun, and ran the first 12 miles together before my hip decided I had to slow down. I couldn't think of anyone I would rather have done all that with, and I'm hoping we might get to do it all again another time too.
It's not too late to sponsor if you would like to, donations can be made to my Virgin Money giving page here: http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/SusanSpence2014 or you can text SSLM77 £1 to 70070 to sponsor me £1.
So, (and here's something I would never have thought possible a year ago) job done - I'm a marathon runner!

I could literally fill this post with all of the really friggen ridiculously shitty things that happened in 2016, starting with the loss of Cameron's 5-year-old best friend on New Years Day. By March 23rd, Cameron had had his second seizure of the year which, for only the second time in his life. (obviously both in 2016) required emergency transport to the hospital, also an ambulance ride and overnight stay at CHaD (this happened 2 more times).
I'll stop there, because you probably already get my point.
I haven't really blogged for a lot of the year because quite honestly, there wasn't a whole lot the world would have wanted to read about. So here's what I'm going to do: This post is going to help me and you enjoy the great things that did happen in 2016, because I don't want to end the year thinking of it as one of the worst years of my life.
January 2016:
We got to celebrate the life of, and meet some pretty incredible people from Cameron's school, people who we probably wouldn't have met if it weren't for the incredibly tragic passing of Cameron's BFF (best friend forever). Caellan was the light of Cameron's Kindergarten experience. He was the ying to Cameron's yang. AFO-clad Kindergartner's, paired at the hip and ready to take on Symond's School, living only one street away. We think about Caellan daily -- Cameron carries a picture of him on his ankle brace and also next to his bed on his wall, reading their same favorite bedtime story.
We also got to take Cameron to the Patriot's Hall of Fame, which was so fun, because he's truly one of the biggest sports fans I know. He had a blast and loves reminding us of the things he remembers from the "museum".
February 2016:
Shawn and I were able to get away for a night with our closest friends and go visit my high school best friend, Nick, in New York City! Thankfully, time with our crew is always a break from reality and is always an adventure!
March 2016:
We spent a day in Rhode Island celebrating an early Easter with my family. It's such a blast to have the G.G.B.'s (great grand babies) together. As they're getting older, they're hilarious to watch interact. Especially when they dress each other up and chit-chat by themselves.
April 2016:
This is probably one of the best memories I have of 2016. Shawn, Cameron and I were able to successfully keep our trip a secret until we arrived in Oregon to surprise my mom for her 50th birthday. I'll never forget the look on her face and the tears she shed when she realized it was me picking her up at the airport (She had been traveling for work when we got there, ironically!). Traveling with Cameron is stressful, but so worth it every time. We traveled all over the Oregon coast showing Cameron all of the things that Meme gets to see. <3 Here is Haystack Rock at Cannon Beach.
We also got to celebrate my nephew Micah's first birthday! He's a ball of love, smiles and energy! I miss this little guy so much.
May 2016:
In May, I got to travel to Washington, DC for work. I was able to take some time in the early morning, before the start of our session, with our medical director, John, to do about a 7 mile run catching all of the D.C. sites. It was about 7am, and there was almost no one around. It was perfect!
I also celebrated Mother's Day with my mother-in-law and family. It was a gorgeous, VERY sunny day!
June 2016:
It was such an honor for me to be able to train with, run and finish my sister-in-law's first 10 miler with her! While I don't know if she looks back on it as being "fun", it was a great time and I still am so proud of her! GO BEE!
In June 2016 Cameron also finished Kindergarten. While it was an incredibly tough year (see reason for this post), he was truly blessed with the most incredible teacher and staff. Thank you Mrs. Arrow and Mrs. Sands! You'll always set the bar SO high for what we expect from Cam's teachers! Here he is, walking away from the Kindergarten door for the last time:
July 2016:
One of our annual traditions, that we're all beginning to really love, is the Cyr family reunion. The upstate NY campground that the whole family gets together at is absolutely beautiful. The best sunsets every night, campfires, fresh air and a true break from everything. We had a great time this year, and I also successfully convinced (who am I kidding - I was driving anyway!) Shawn to let us go the "long" way home and stop in Lake Placid to see the Olympic stadiums!
August 2016:
This one is easy. Cameron turned 6!!! We had a great time at his Star Wars themed birthday party and were SOOOO excited to give him his birthday present - Red Sox tickets! We had gotten them in January when tickets first went on sale, so we had been waiting for awhile. Just as we had hoped, he absolutely loved it. Plus, it was LEGO day and they unveiled the Big Papi Lego statue on the day we were there! He also got a ball thrown to him from left fielder Chris Young ANNND got to run around Fenway Park's bases by himself at the end of the game! What a lucky duck!
September 2016:
One of my absolute favorite things this summer was my garden. I had one last year, but had a horrible time keeping up with it while also training for my marathon. Without the training, I was able to focus more, and man did it rock! We had zucchini upon zucchini, lots of pretty green peppers, TONS of tomatoes and eggplant! What a rewarding project it was.Even Cam liked it!
October 2016:
Our annual CHaD HERO tradition was the highlight of October. It was incredible, from the HERO tribute the day before, to the races, to meeting new friends. We had a blast. We surpassed our goal of $1,000 raised for CHaD! It was a long day, as you can see by Cam's face, but I know he'll be looking forward to it when it comes around again next year!
November 2016:
Shawn surprised me with a weekend away in Burlington, VT for my birthday. We had both said for awhile that we wanted to go there. It was perfect. The weather was fabulous, the sunsets were gorgeous and we look forward to getting back there again sometime soon - maybe this next summer when we go to New York for the family reunion! :)
December 2016:
With this month literally "upon us" (and having just passed), I can't help but think about the gasp of surprise when Cameron opened the first of the *only* three gifts that he asked of Santa. (college football helmets, NHL hockey helmets and ties). I can't explain the feeling of satisfaction when he opened that wrapping paper and saw exactly what he had wished for. Sometimes its hard to make Cameron happy, surprised and excited. I used to think that only spoiled brats got exactly what they wanted, (and maybe that's true), but man, does that little boy deserve those three simple things. (Thank you Amazon Prime!)
2016 as a whole:
I can't end a 2016 post without giving a shout out to the running club that kept by my side through the year that I have felt the least like a runner. Scores Running Club has literally had my back since Christmas 2015 when I opened the bag that had my singlet in it. I have gone to Tuesday run after Tuesday run, held the caboose and always finished feeling like a part of a team. I will always thank you all for that!
Family...oh my family has been my rock. My cousins were and have continued to be my best friends since we were 1 year old. Thank God for Snapchat and text messaging!
I can only hope that 2017 brings as good of a year (and Sweet Lord Jesus, a better friggen year) than 2016 did. Whew! That was therapeutic!

Camping in Swaledale at Muker
Recently I managed to fit in a quick break camping in Swaledale. Ok, the weather wasn't the best and it only totally cleared when I was heading back to my car for the drive home – typical! Even so, changeable weather can produce some great photographs. And there were enough gaps in the coulds to allow me to get some photographs.
There are a few campsites in Upper Swaledale and I chose Usha Gap campsite just outside Muker as I had stayed there before. It is basic, which for me is fine, and has a couple of fields so has plenty of space in which to camp. Tent pitched and dinner eaten, it was time to head off for an evening walk.
A walk from Muker to Keld to Thwaite
First walk on my tour of upper Swaledale was a circuit of Kisdon, the hill separating Muker and the nearby village of Keld. Leaving Muker along the valley path I walked through the fields that earlier in the summer would be a riot of colour due to all the wildflowers. However as it was late on in the summer the hay crop had long since been harvested and the fields were just a carpet of grass. A walk though the meadows in flower is described in a more recent blog entry, written in 2016.
On its way to Keld the path passes Hartlakes, reputedly one of the most haunted buildings in the Dales. Its other name is Boggle Hall, 'boggle' referring to the old name for a spirit that moves from house to house. Regardless of whether or not someone believes in all that it can't be disputed that this is a remote and stunning part of the valley to live in!
The ruin of Hartlakes near Muker
A few miles later, having completed a loop of Kisdon Hill, I thought I'd climb it and try and catch a decent sunset. I managed to climb above one of the old, disused lead mines that scatter this part of the dale, only to be left slightly disappointed. The Upper Swaledale photo below was the best I could manage, given the light. Not bad but could have been so much better had the western horizon been clear of clouds.
Upper Swaledale from Kisdon Hill
A walk over Lovely Seat and Great Shunner Fell
After a night's sleep, the following day I started early and headed up onto Muker Common on the southern side of the Valley. My first target of the day was Lovely Seat, one of the higher points on the common. Lovely Seat is a remote, rarely climbed peak on the ridge separating Swaledale from neighbouring Wensleydale. Climbing out of Muker, the route initially climbs through fields. Once past them though, the walk deteriorated into a wade through bogs. It was worse than climbing Meugher from Wharfedale and thats saying something!. I suspect this route is not often used and I can see why.
On the summit of Lovely Seat there is rather appropriately a lovely seat made out of stone. Sadly it is facing east when the best views are definitely to the north and west, looking over Upper Swaledale. Strange.
Heading west off the summit, the path improves and leads down to reach the Buttertubs Pass road. From there it continues up to the summit of Great Shunner Fell – a great vantage point with wide open views across the tops of the northern Dales.
The shelter at the summit of Great Shunner Fell
Great Shunner Fell to Muker on the Pennine Way
The route from Great Shunner Fell back down to Muker is along the Pennine Way track. It really is an arm-swinging descent with no route-finding issues whatsoever – a broad track all the way.
On reaching road at the small hamlet of Thwaite the route back to Muker is through a series of attractive, small, dry stone walled fields.
Swaledale meadows near Thwaite
All that was left to do was quench my thirst with a quick drink at The Farmer's Arms in Muker, pack my kit up and head back home. Looking back on it, it had been an enjoyable weekend camping in Swaledale.

After reviewing the hundreds of pictures I've taken this past week, most of them are diminished by the lens blemishes. So much so that I spent the day shopping for a replacement.
I've spent a lot of my day trying different lenses at different camera shops and taking comparative pictures... until I found one. A good one - arguably a better one - at a very good price.
As a last farewell to a lens that has served me well for 3 years, I'm making it the focus of today's picture (see what I did there?)

Strong investment demand also pushed spot silver to $20.75 an ounce, its highest since March 2008.
Spot gold was bid at $1,276.85 a troy ounce at 1119 GMT (7:19 a.m. EDT) compared with $1,265.65 an ounce at the close on Wednesday.
Earlier on Thursday it hit a record $1,277.05 an ounce and many expect it will hit $1,300 very soon.
"It's an insurance policy at the end of the day," said Robin Bhar, analyst at Credit Agricole. "All the ingredients are still there -- all the uncertainty and fear -- to keep gold underpinned."
One potential trigger could be the conclusion of a meeting of the U.S. Federal Reserve on September 21, when the central bank could announce further quantitative easing to stave off economic slowdown in the world's largest economy.
"If the Fed says next week it is going to do more quantitative easing...the inflation bugs will have a field day," said David Thurtell, analyst at Citi, who thinks gold could see the $1,300 level next week.
Quantitative easing is normally a process by which central banks attempt to pump money into the economy by buying bonds. Excess liquidity could lead to too much money chasing too few goods or services -- resulting in price pressures.
Also on the agenda is the U.S. fiscal outlook with the start of the new financial year in the United States.
"People will worry as politicians commit to new spending, especially with mid-term elections approaching," Thurtell said.
Gold market sentiment was helped by the euro, which rose broadly on Thursday, hitting one-month highs versus the dollar and the yen, after a Spanish bond auction produced lower average yields than previously.
"There's still no real confidence in the U.S. recovery. No one sees any real reason for gold prices to decrease," said Gwenael Chazal, head of Metal Trading.
Before the Fed's meeting next week triggers for upward momentum could include the U.S. producer prices for August -- due on Thursday at 1230 GMT.
U.S. consumer prices for August due on Friday could also spark a rally, which could take gold to $1,300 an ounce.
"The CPI data may give us more clues on the possibility of the Fed expanding its QE programme," said Andrey Kryuchenkov, analyst at VTB Capital.
"There is no guarantee that it will happen with macro data more or less in line with consensus lately and some positive surprises ... It was investment demand that pushed gold up and investment demand will push it to $1,300."
Investor interest can be seen in the world's largest gold-backed exchange-traded fund, the SPDR Gold Trust (GLD.P), which said its holdings fell to 1,294.746 tonnes by September 15 from 1,298.698 tonnes on September 14.
But the fall follows a six-tonne rise the previous day.
Positive macro data is also partly behind the run higher in industrial precious metals such as silver, platinum and palladium. Spot silver was bid at $20.74 an ounce from $20.49 late on Wednesday.
"Hopes for strong economic recovery are why silver is experiencing a similar rush to that seen in platinum and palladium earlier this year," Kryuchenkov said.
Spot platinum was bid at $1,608.00 an ounce from $1,604.50 at the close on Wednesday when it touched a four-month high of $1,619.50. Palladium was at $554.50 at $553.78.

Elizabeth Taylor's commitment to fighting HIV/AIDS is being remembered on World AIDS Day.
Taylor was one of the first celebrities to acknowledge the disease and now one of her friends, Colin Farrell is keeping her mission alive through a new short film released Monday to raise awareness.
Taylor passed away in 2011 at the age of 79 after 30 years of activism.
In 1991, Elizabeth founded the Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation to fund prevention and education and to direct care and services to people living with AIDS. Since then, the foundation has given over $15 million to 650 organizations in 42 states and 33 countries.
Beyond the millions raised, Taylor called on the public to "Draw from the depths of your being to prove that we are a human race."
This is not the first time Farrell has publicly honored his relationship with Taylor. In a 2013 appearance on Ellen DeGeneres' daytime talk show, he professed his love for the late actress.
"I got to have an audience with her, and that was the beginning of a year-and-a-half or two years of what was a really cool — which feels like in my head … the last kind of romantic relationship I've had, which was never consummated," he said at the time.
Taylor's legacy lives on, through Farrell's words, her foundation and her own inspiring words to win the battle against AIDS: "We will win. We must win for the sake of all humanity."

James Buckley has told Digital Spy that he refused to appear naked in The Inbetweeners Movie.
The 24-year-old actor, who plays Jay Cartwright in the teen comedy, admitted that he was reluctant to show his "parts" on the big screen in what Simon Bird confirmed was the "first ever Inbetweeners full-frontal moment".
Buckley said: "I was asked to be naked. There's this scene when Jay's pants fall down. I wasn't up for it, so they got a double for me, and super-imposed his parts on my body."
Blake Harrison, who portrays Neil Sutherland, said he also felt embarrassed during the film, recounting a moment when he had to meet the actress playing a woman Neil flirts with.
"I had a really awkward moment when Neil has some flirtations with older women. There's one moment when he puts his head between a mature lady's breasts," Harrison said.
"And it's awkward to meet someone for the very first time and 2 minutes later, before motorboating in there."

Many hairstylists agree that the Kate Gosselin hairstyle is ideal for women, just like Kate Gosselin, are always on the go and have very limited time to spend styling and fixing their hair. The hairstyle requires very minimal styling to be done. Because the back side of the Kate Gosselin hairstyle is cut into spikes, these can easily be styled by simply taking some setting gel or hair wax and just scrunching the back of the hair up. Only the front bob portion is the one that would need to be styled with the use of a blower and a wide round brush. But since this only takes up a portion of the entire Kate Gosselin hairstyle, the amount spent here is very minimal.
celebrity hairstyle with bangs: A good hairstyle for busy women.
Apart from being extremely manageable to style and maintain, the Kate Gosselin hairstyle is highly recommended for busy career women and mothers because of its versatility. The cut is fashionable whether you are simply wearing a simple shirt and jeans like what Kate usually does in the reality TV series, or a glittering cocktail dress for a night out on the town with some friends. Although most of the pictures of the Kate Gosselin hairstyle are often shown with Kate scrunching up the back side of the entire hairstyle, you also can blow this and lift it up with some volume giving mousse to give you an updo which would be great for formal events.
Before cutting your hair exactly into the Kate Gosselin hairstyle, make sure to first consult with your hairstylist before doing so. The downside with this hairstyle is that it would work well exactly as it is for oval and square-shaped faces. Your hairstylist will be able to slightly modify the look to let you get the hairstyle that you want that flatter on your face at the same time.

In Kate Gosselin's bob hairstyle, this actually adds length to this side of the hair. In order to achieve this style, it is important to ensure that your hair works in much the same way as far as all the unique components are concerned.

While the Manchester United v Bayern Munich Champions League Quarter Final clash will attract plenty of attention as the transitional Premier League side take on the all conquering Bundesliga champions at Old Trafford this evening, the all La Primera Liga Barcelona v Atlético Madrid clash at the Camp Nou is going to be the more intriguing clash of the night.
These two teams have already faced each other on three occasions this season and all three matches were draws. The 1-1 draw at the Estadio Vincente Calderón in the Super Cup was followed by a 0-0 draw at the Camp Nou so it was Barcelona who claimed that particular trophy on away goals. Their first meeting in the league was also at the home of Atlético and that saw no goals between the two teams, yet despite the lack of goals and ability for either side to claim a winner the bookmakers clearly see Barcelona claiming the advantage in front of their own fans in this Champions League Quarter Final.
Barcelona v Atlético Madrid Odds:
Barcelona – 1.51
Draw – 4.00
Atlético – 6.40
(All odds provided by GR88.com are accurate as of today and subject to change)
Although they managed to draw with AC Milan and lose to Ajax in the Champions League this season, Barcelona have managed to win each of their home games so far scoring 15 goals and conceding just three in their four matches so far. In fact their overall home form at the Camp Nou, even when they were slipping up on the road, has been outstanding. Since drawing 0-0 with their opponents in this Champions League match at the end of August they have won 21 out 22 matches in front of their fans, losing only to Valencia.
This makes Atlético just one of two sides to avoid defeat at Barcelona this season and with them having the psychological advantage of leading them in the La Primera Liga title race this season they will fancy their chances in this first leg Quarter Final. Atlético, along with their city rivals Real Madrid, are unbeaten in the Champions League this season having won five of their six group matches, as well as drawing with Zenit St Petersburg in Russia, before booking their place in this last eight stage game by doing what Barcelona failed to do in beating AC Milan as they followed up a 1-0 win at the San Siro with a 4-1 thumping on home soil.
Can either of these sides actually win this match following three straight draws? If either side is to do so I feel that Barcelona's experience at this stage of the competition will be a massive advantage, as will the scoring ability of Lionel Messi. The Argentine striker has eight in this competition so far, but Atlético have their own star striker this season in the Brazilian born Diego Costa. He has played 75 minutes fewer than Messi, but has just one fewer goal and with 25 goals in the league, he has bagged two more than Messi in that competition.
Will there be goals from these two star strikers? Will there be a winner? The two sides have cancelled each other out all three times already this season and I feel that this match will be another close one. As a result of this, I am backing Atlético to get something from this match to bring to the Estadio Vincente Calderón for the second leg.
Back Atlético/Draw Double Chance in this Champions League Quarter Final match against Barcelona @ 2.58 with GR88.com.

Saving log - $1 tip box
Spending log - $1.75 coffee + $10 groceries
Found money - $0.13 (sidewalks, parking meter)
Not much happened today. I did buy a deposit on 100# of beef. We plan on 50#; the rest should come from two others, each wanting 25#. Got one of those 25#/$25, all I need is the other one.
The second beef fest has begun.
I did find two semi-interesting fiscal links. One is a place to compare 401K/403B of various companies. I tried our workplace - not enough information. For a long term project I might fill them in on our 403B - the information is not secret and it is not illegal to give out. Still, the discrete side of my personality really hesitates.
The other link is stock footnotes - some person I salute reads the various footnotes from 10-Ks, 8-Qs and other formal fiscal publications, then writes on the hinkiness she discovers therein. I can search on the ticker symbol for specific footnote hinkiness. Fantastic!
beef and links, but not beef links

As any garden-loving resident will know, Kuwait's extreme climate is not kind to grass. Brown patches and dead grass can be seen in our lawns, school playing fields and public parks. Now one company has a unique, environmentally-friendly solution.
Alhamy International is transforming gardens and public parks with Green Canary – a naturally-sourced, green pigment extracted from seaweed that sprays on in minutes and lasts, well months. Unlike other harmful, chemical- or paint-based colorants it contains no toxic ingredients so after a few hours when it is dry, pets and kids can all enjoy the lush green surface. Green Canary is actually full of nutrients so it also feeds the plant and gives it added resilience. Invented in California to deal with the current 'mega-drought', it works wonders in harsh climates.
Project Manager Hassan El Debbes sits down with bazaar to talk more about Green Canary and how Kuwait can, quite literally, 'go green'.
What are some of the main challenges that many people face when it comes to keeping their natural lawns green?
We live in a part of the world where we suffer from extreme temperatures, aridity and wide, seasonal variations in humidity. Scorching temperatures and high humidity levels can last for seven or eight months each year in the Gulf region, which makes it very hard to maintain lush grass. Moreover, in winter, grass becomes dormant from the relative low temperatures and results in grass tending to not grow and ultimately turning brown.
What is Green Canary? What brought about its creation?
Green Canary is an instant, eco-friendly, non-toxic remedy for dormant or unsightly grass. It's easy to use as it only takes a few minutes to apply, but lasts for months! Green Canary was created in California, where there has been a century-long mega-drought.
What inspired Alhamy to bring this innovative product/service to Kuwait?
Alhamy's vision is to make a difference to the environment. If we enhance our environment aesthetically, it has a positive effect on society. However, we do not want this to be a purely superficial or cosmetic beautification of grass. We wanted to find eco-friendly solutions that could stand the extreme climatic conditions posed by the GCC. Green Canary was the only suitable and safe solution.
How does Green Canary help consumers keep their lawns green? How does the technology work?
It helps by coating the grass surface (such as lawns, turf or sports fields) with a specially formulated, eco-friendly pigment that is derived from algae. Along with being a natural food colorant, algae contain over sixty different nutrients that work naturally with sunlight to revive the grass.
How does Green Canary reduce consumption of water?
Green Canary contains a specific group of natural nutrients, which help minimize water evaporation and assist the grass's biological resistance to drought. This in turn gives the grass added resilience especially in drought conditions and in dry, arid climates.
Aren't some colorants considered harmful to pets and the environment? What makes Green Canary eco-friendly?
Colorants come in different forms and some are indeed harmful. However, Green Canary is the ONLY product in the GCC to contain green pigments derived from nature. These green pigments are used in everyday food colorants and are not harmful to pets or the environment. Our product also does not contain dangerous chemicals such as ammonia and kaolin, which tend to be used in similar treatments. We advise consumers to check the constituents of any grass treatment prior to use.
Green Canary is considered 'eco-friendly' because it is made of natural, renewable sources such as seaweed and algae. No pollutants are used in the harvesting of algae.
What are some added benefits of Green Canary that would attract the typical homeowner or institution in Kuwait?
We provide instant results: the grass can be used just two hours after the application and one application lasts 3-4 months, thus spreading the initial investment over a long period. We work year-round, and also offer special services for special events, and we supply colors to give your grass a touch of creativity! Imagine waking up and seeing "Happy Birthday!" written on your lawn, or having your school or company logo on a playing field!
How does the application and maintenance process work in Kuwait?
Our professionally trained technicians apply the product manually by spraying it onto the surface via a motorized pump.
What are some of your future goals?
To enhance Kuwait's green spaces in an environmentally friendly way and to encourage the use of safe grass treatments and water reduction.
Does your brown lawn need an eco-friendly boost? For more information on Green Canary contact Alhamy via their website at www.alhamyintl.com, or follow them on social media:
Call 2247 8378/9 or 9800 6083.
And don't worry, their team speaks English, Arabic, French and Farsi.

This post was written by one of our Summer Staff volunteers, Bethany, who is a sign-language interpreter from North Carolina. We're so thankful to her for her work with these two amazing little guys, and for the glimpses she offers into their world.
Normally I am in-between between people interpreting, but in my time here at New Day I get to have direct input. I've had to really reach outside of myself to do this, because I'm not normally a teacher.
I have daily one-on-ones with both Josiah and Gideon, and also time with them together. I sign with them the whole time. I'm with them in preschool, for example, signing the calendar-time, signs to describe shapes and colors, signing the words to songs, signing about snack-time. Any time there is communication, I am signing.
It's so important for them to learn sign language alongside learning speech because without a language, you can't learn how to say a word correctly. The whole time they have been at New Day, the teachers have been working diligently with them to make sure that they are able to express themselves. It's because of this foundation that I'm able to do what I'm doing now.
Josiah is such a fun-loving adventurer, who is ready and willing to learn and communicate with anyone.
Gideon is more reserved, but he has hidden treasure once he trusts you.
My greatest joy has been learning how they are different but also how they are similar, and how to use that to their advantage. I am getting them to help each other learn sign-language, for example, how to take turns with the train and how to ask for help to build the track.
It's funny to see how Josiah seems like the older brother, he helps Gideon to calm down; it's really cute. One day Gideon was super-upset and Josiah looked at me and signed "Gideon sad". When Gideon came back in, Josiah was comforting and sweet to him.
Just when I think that the sweetness has ended, snack-time comes around. Gideon cannot stand a mess, so he'll clean up every single person's place, especially Josiah's, to make sure that it's clean!
What I'm learning from both of them is that just because your experience has been isolation, it doesn't mean that your heart doesn't long for community. The two of them may not be brothers but they can still be family. That makes me feel better, at least they are not alone and they have each other.

On 17 December 2013, a key European Parliament committee supported proposals by the European Commission to do away with bureaucratic rubber-stamping exercises for citizens and businesses in Europe (IP/13/355).
Currently, citizens who move to another EU country have to spend time and money demonstrating that their public documents from another Member State (such as birth or marriage certificates) are authentic. This involves the so-called 'Apostille' certificate used by public authorities as proof that public documents are genuine. Businesses operating across EU borders in the EU's Single Market are also affected as they are often required to produce a number of certified public documents in order to prove their legal status when operating cross-border.
On 17 December the Legal Affairs Committee (JURI) voted by 23 in favour to 1 against to endorse the Commission's proposal to scrap the Apostille stamp and a further series of arcane administrative requirements Member States still require for certifying public documents for people living and working in other Member States.

At 26, Wilson is the youngest manager in the history of GKCU
When Shawn Wilson was 8 years old, he started an account at Greater Kinston Credit Union without any knowledge of what he would do at the bank 18 years later.
Wilson, 26, was recently appointed as the CEO of Greater Kinston, the youngest one in the history of the bank, which was chartered in 1952.
For Wilson the job is a testament to his family and the city of Kinston.
�My grandmother, aunts, uncles and many of my family members have banked here,� Wilson said. �It�s surreal that I�m working here and very humbling. I would not be here if it wasn�t for the love and support of the community.�
Wilson graduated from Onslow Christian Academy in Jacksonville in 2005. He attended Lenoir Community College before graduating from Mount Olive in 2010 with a degree in business administration with a concentration in organizational development.
In 2006, Wilson received his first opportunity to work in the field of banking in a relatively random manner.
�At the time, I worked at Belk and I didn�t like the hours of retail,� Wilson said. �One day, I was helping a customer, who was a financial services representative at First Citizen�s Bank. She talked to me about becoming a teller and the rest is history.�
Wilson enjoyed his time at First Citizen�s bank, but was eager to ascend to a higher position.
�At 19 or 20, I felt like I could do this as a career instead of just a college job,� Wilson said. �I started evaluating and working to seize opportunities to move up.�
Those opportunities came; first, as a member service representative for First Flight in 2008, and then as a financial service officer for State Employees Credit Union in 2010.
Wilson was especially thankful for the training and multiple responsibilities he received at State Employees Credit Union.
�I knew it would be a door for me to do more than just loans,� Wilson said. �I did Linden training, mortgage applications and many other things. For a while, I came to a place of contentment, but still felt like there were higher goals to reach.�
Finally, on Jan. 8, Wilson was appointed as the interim manager of Greater Kinston Credit Union. On June 27, the interim title was removed and Wilson officially became the CEO on Aug. 1.
Wilson has received high praise from his employees.
�He�s very humble and fun to be around, but at the same time he�s serious about his job,� Member Service Specialist Tomeka Tillery said.
Loan Officer Kelly Reed had similar sentiments.
�He�s very nice and great to work with,� Reed said. �He�s always willing to help people out when he can.�
With a penchant for assisting others, Wilson has advice for those looking to fulfill their ambitions.
�You have to set high goals for yourself and expect nothing but the best, but always stay modest and humble,� Wilson said. �Seize opportunities, stay disciplined and have a strong support system.�

Readers may recall that last year there was a seminal moment in the independence referendum when the Governor of the Bank of England, Mark Carney, visited Edinburgh. The clocks didn't quite stop but some Nationalists had to feel for their pulses, for Carney's speech about currency arrangements if Scotland voted for independence exposed a crucial weakness in Alex Salmond's arguments for continuing to use the pound.
Yes, there could be an arrangement where an independent Scotland could use the pound sterling, said Carney, but due to the risks for the rest of the UK there would have to be arrangements in place that would to all intents and purposes mean there was no economic independence at all. None over public spending – which would be open to scrutiny and correction by the Bank of England – or, therefore, over Scottish taxes or borrowing.
Carney pointed out what the downsides were to a new currency union between Scotland and the rest of the UK – not least by explaining why the euro had failed to work effectively – but left it at that. He left it to the politicians to work out what arrangement could work.
Carney's speech was a time bomb, and it was not long before it was detonated by Chancellor George Osborne when he too came to Edinburgh and said that the terms outlined by the governor would be too risky for the rest of the UK to sign up to, for no UK government of any colour could agree to underwriting Scotland if it chose to become independent.
The dream of some Nationalists of higher welfare benefits, lower taxes and higher public spending would create risks to UK taxpayers. The Bank of England – the UK's central bank – bailing out failed Scottish-based banks when Scotland is in the UK was logical and to be expected, but having to bail out a failed independent Scottish economy could not be countenanced and would provoke public outrage.
From this point on Alex Salmond was never able to handle the currency question convincingly. He had no Plan B of what an independent Scotland would do without the pound – leading many businesses to state they would have to consider moving out of Scotland so they would have the protection of the Bank of England (as their final underwriter).
On Wednesday, Mark Carney delivered another speech of similar nature in Oxford, this time on the UK's relationship with the European Union and what the Bank of England thinks about it. Just like last year it was delivered because of a forthcoming referendum and sought to provide some clarity about what the future holds.
This week, in one of my frequent sojourns to the London metropolis, I found the level of expectation high – both sides of the referendum campaign were clearly nervous about what Carney might say, knowing the impact of his intervention in the Scottish referendum last year.
It was therefore to the surprise of most that he didn't really say anything conclusive at all. Indeed, both sides found comfort in his words.
For supporters of EU membership he suggested that the UK had benefitted from access to open markets and the freedom of movement of labour and capital, due to being in the EU. His tone was generally positive. Initially they thought Carney must be in their camp.
Then it was noticed how his speech made no distinction between the UK joining the Common Market back in the 70s and being in the European Union now and how that evolution – from the initial free-trade arrangement to today's political project that has resulted in 65 per cent of our laws coming from Europe – has added expensive burdens and changed the nature of the beast.
Neither did he consider the access to EU markets that other countries have without needing to be EU members, nor did he consider the financial cost to the UK or provide a cost/benefit analysis. There was silence too on the impact of ever-closer political union – that's clearly not within his remit.
More importantly for EU-sceptics, Carney flagged up the real dangers that are over the horizon, especially from the need to provide greater intervention to protect the euro and the threat to UK financial services from regulation. Thirty years on after its launch and the EU's "single market" still does not include financial services.
On balance I thought his speech provided more ammunition for the Leave campaign than it did for the Remain campaign. He certainly did not provide a silver bullet for Osborne to shoot the Leave campaign down. The result is that while his speech makes interesting reading it is unlikely to prove conclusive in the referendum – unless he comes back to make another intervention in the future.
That would be more dangerous for Cameron and Osborne, for the chances are that the longer the referendum goes on the more likely it is that new regulations and laws that will hurt British companies will be thought up by Brussels. If that were the case, the governor would be faced with having to be critical of such proposals.
If I were Cameron or Osborne I'd be worried the way their renegotiation strategy and campaign is going off the rails.

The end has begun in these new promos for the final season of Fringe
I will be very sad after these final thirteen episodes of FRINGE air starting September 28th. I was a big fan of THE X-FILES and FRINGE felt like the best combination of that show and LOST. Every FRINGE fan I have ever met loves it with the voracity that I do. It is a shame that it is ending now since Fox could never give it the audience it deserved.
As we have come to see, the final season will focus on The Observers who were shown to have taken over Earth in the excellent season four episode "Letters of Transit". Now, with just a month to go until the premiere, we have two new brief promos that give us our first look at the final season.
Between those two videos we have 45 seconds of footage and I already feel that 13 episodes won't be nearly enough to tell this whole story! I hope that we get a satisfying ending to FRINGE and not a cop out like so many other series.
FRINGE premiers on September 28th.

The Air Force wants to create a mega complex of special-use airspace that would span four states and affect more than 20 general aviation airports. The proposed expansion of the Powder River Military Operations Area would claim airspace in Montana, Wyoming, North Dakota, and South Dakota and cover an area 300 nm by 165 nm from an altitude of 500 feet agl through Flight Level 600.
The Air Force claims the space is needed for training in B-1 and B-52 bombers, which would be allowed to fly at supersonic speeds above 10,000 feet msl and deploy flares and chaff.
"We are closely following this proposal and will be dealing directly with the Air Force to get a better understanding of the proposal, but we also need local pilots to tell the Air Force how this proposal would affect them and their ability to fly," said Pete Lehmann, AOPA manager of air traffic services.
Pilots are strongly urged to attend one of the 15 public meetings scheduled by the Air Force to get community-specific input on the proposal. The meetings will be held between June 15 and July 16. For details of the meeting schedule and locations, visit the Web site.

In recent months, the Iraqi government, encouraged by our Ambassador in Iraq, Ryan Crocker, has passed benchmark legislation on such politically difficult issues as de-Baathification, amnesty, the budget and provincial elections.See that's the funny thing, de-Baathification is what Paul Bremer did. Later, when even the Bush administration realized what a boneheaded move that was, they demanded that the supposedly sovereign Iraqis fix it. The "difficult issue" Lieberman is praising was de-de-Baathification.
But that would sound ridiculous.

Ron Naclerio will often tell his players to calm down, but he will be screaming himself, sending a mixed message. Saturday afternoon, he delivered that advice during a timeout with a calmness the Judges have rarely, if ever, seen from the volatile and often off-the-wall coach.
"I've never seen him so calm," senior point guard Chris Gayot said. "It was crazy."
At the time, Cardozo was somewhat struggling, tied with Bayside despite ending the stanza on an 8-0 run. Naclerio felt the Judges were feeling the pressure he says always comes with donning the orange and blue, the need to be perfect after going undefeated in league play.
Naclerio's words actually had a soothing effect as Cardozo went on to outscore Bayside 21-2 in the second quarter and cruise to a 62-41 victory and its second straight Queens crown and third in four years.
"Now they can walk around saying they're undefeated in Queens," Naclerio said. "That's a big deal."
Altogether, it was a 29-2 run, a head-spinning spurt that turned an eight-point deficit into a 19-point halftime lead. Before the rampage, there was an air of uncertainty with the game; by its end, Bayside's hopes had been squashed.
"We just calmed down," said senior guard Shelton Mickell, who scored a team-high 18 points. "Everybody got the cobwebs out. … It was so much fun, especially seeing the expression of all our guys, everybody's smiling, everybody's happy."
The only other comparable run in his 30 years of coaching, Naclerio said, was a 37-0 spurt in a home win over Bayside in 2000. That club featured former St. John's stalwarts Ryan Williams and Darryl Hill.
"I like this one [better] – it means something," he said.
Everything that could go right did for Cardozo. The Judges sank five 3-pointers, they got out in transition after defensive stops for several layups and used their length inside and out to frustrate the Commodores, particularly their dynamic guards, William Dobie and Austin Williams.
As has been the case much of the year, the all-senior backcourt of Mickell and Gayot led the charge. They combined for 17 of Cardozo's 29 points, nine from Mickell and eight from Gayot, who had 16 on the night.
"They are our bread and butter," Naclerio said.
Bayside's third loss to Cardozo was frustrating on many levels. The Commodores (16-10), in their first Queens final in seven years, have now dropped two consecutive lopsided results to the Judges after nearly pulling an upset in the first encounter. The game was virtually even in the first, third and fourth quarters.
"My kids are new to the bright lights, [Card0zo's] been to the Garden, they're battle-tested," Bayside coach Cory Semper said. "We came out flat in the second quarter. That was the difference."
The win sets up Naclerio's club nicely for the citywide PSAL Class AA playoffs, where it is likely to receive a top five seed. Unlike last season, Cardozo (25-1) isn't a favorite. There is, in fact, some doubt the Judges are realistic city title contenders because of a schedule considered light.
Queens isn't nearly as highly regarded as Brooklyn, where championship favorites Lincoln and Boys & Girls reside, Cardozo didn't travel to any out-of-town tournaments and its best non-league wins came over Manhattan champion Wadleigh and Maryland power Paterson.
Naclerio counters by saying he attempted to schedule Christ the King and Rice and didn't expect so many players to leave Bishop Loughlin when he set up the game.
"I'll play anyone, anywhere, any time," he said.
His players aren't nearly as concerned.
"25-1 is a great record whoever you play," Mickell said. "We just look at the 'W's.'"

My current loves are a mix of earth tone-eclectic-old world everything! I am obsessed with pieces that are heavily carved (like the post below) with big, chunky hardware. When it comes to the hardware the bigger and heavier the better. Another new obsession of mine is deep cobalt blue. I noticed one of my potting pots on my back deck and have fallen in love with its color. This color can add an eclectic flair to a room without
being obnoxiously bright. Side note: I actually don't care for very bright colors, ask my mom. She says the only color I wear is black, which is semi true...I wear white too! Here is an example of my current likes. Beware as they could change within a matter of days!

The expectations for the Thomas men's basketball team aren't as high this season. Not withstanding how that might be a good thing, the excitement level might be higher for the Terriers this winter.
After being picked by the North Atlantic Conference coaches to finish first last season, Thomas was picked fifth this winter. The Terriers don't have much size — junior Marquis Pollard is the only key player listed as taller than 6-foot-2, and he's 6-4.
Thomas opened the season this weekend with two wins at the Charlie Ryan Classic, defeating the University of New England, 99-76, and the University of Maine at Machias, 115-111. The Terriers took 85 shots per game over the weekend.
"This is the way we need to play to be successful, I believe," Thomas coach T.J. Maines said.
The Terriers have five players averaging in double figures, and four more averaging at least six points per game. Jarrad DeVaughn, last season's leading scorer at 18.4 ppg, is out for the first semester because of a financial aid issue. So the only Thomas player who started both games this weekend was junior guard Franklin Salvador.
"We're changing things up," Maines said. "It's not important who starts to me, it's who finishes."
Maines feels there considerable room for improvement at both ends of the floor. But he realizes it's unrealistic to expect Thomas to run that much and play league-leading defense at the same time.
"If you play fast, you're going to give up some points," Maines said. "We're extending the floor much more than what we did last year."
Thomas is off until Nov. 30, when it plays the first of back-to-back games in Vermont against Green Mountain and Castleton. Thomas won't have another practice until next week.
"We've already had 28 practices," Maines said. "Their bodies need some rest."
* * *
While Thomas has had about a month's worth of practices, the Colby women's basketball team couldn't get a practice in until Nov. 1. It's a New England Small College Athletic Conference rule, according to Mules coach Julie Veilleux.
"Everybody starts mid-October, and we start Nov. 1 every year," Veilleux said. "I don't think it's a bad/good thing. It's just a lot less time to get a lot done."
Colby trailed by 15 at halftime of its opener Friday against Bridgewater State, and ended up losing, 61-60. On Saturday, the Mules defeated UMaine-Fort Kent, 63-51. With three starters gone to graduation, including top scorers Jil Vaughan and Rachael Mack, the lineup is much different. Gabe Donahue, for example, averaged 9.2 minutes per game last winter, but started both games this weekend.
"We definitely have some players who were on the team last year, who didn't really play a lot, and now they have that opportunity," Veilleux said. "In terms of roles, it's completely different, and a lot of roles are open."
Mack and Vaughan are both six-footers, and while their absence has hurt Colby's post game, Veilleux said the Mules actually match up better defensively with a lot of teams now, because few teams have a lot of height and the quickness level is more even.
Freshman Desi Smith leads the Mules with 13.5 points per game, while Diana Manduca is averaging 13.0 and Waterville graduate Jen Nale is at 10.0. Five players have between 14 and 23 field goal attempts.
"That will be somewhat a common theme," Veilleux said. "Diana Manduca certainly is a force, but other people definitely could step up on different nights."

Section Information for Fall 2017
This course examines the forms of conquest and colonization practiced in Mesoamerica and the Andes by the Aztec, Inca, and Spanish empires over five hundred years, from the thirteenth to the eighteenth centuries. We will take into account military, religious, and social issues and we will examine two sets of questions. First, what do terms such as "conquest," and "colonial" mean to different historians? Do they refer to simple relationships between dominator and oppressed, or do they refer to more ambiguous and contested processes? Second, why did certain civilizations rise to prominence? Why did some civilizations dominate others? How important were external and internal factors?
Satisfies the general education requirement in global understanding.

I don't know how they happen. They just do. Throughout history there have been many bad events. Horrific events. Events that shattered lives and have us picking up pieces for years to come. Where did they begin? Can you remember? Can you remember that one exact moment that set it all it a tumble? Odds are you can't. None of us can. The cause to most of these events were set in place long before we were even a thought. This all translate into our everyday life. Think about the places you been, the people you love and the memories you have made. All things can not continue. They say, all good things must come to an end. While, I don't believe this to be entirely true, some good things do come to an end. Sometimes I find it difficult to pinpoint exactly where it went wrong. Which is why I think you shouldn't focus on the bad things. Look at all the good times. Life is too short to sweat the small stuff. And at this point, I am sure I am the small stuff to a handful of people. And that's ok, I am ok with that. Just don't let it eat at you for to long.

Jumper- FARA charity shop
T-shirt, joni jeans and hat- Topshop
Hooped earrings- Carrie Elspeth
Bargain of the outfit : FARA Jumper
Incase you haven't already read my blog post about the jumper, it was originally from Urban Outfitters and I picked it up for £12 in FARA charity shop, a definate bargain!
I know I'm not supposed to have two bargains of the outfit, but the hat was also a great buy at £5, it was from the Topshop sale and was orignally £12. I find that this time of the year is a great time to buy hats and winter essentials as we still have a few cold months to go and all the shops have great sale on these items. Also come october (yes, it's only 6 months away) you'll be back in your coat and wooly hats again. Hats are great at keeping you warm too, as well as hats I am really into hooped earrings at the moment (as long at they are not to heavy). The ones I am wearing are from Carrie Elspeth and are lovely to wear, they are silver so don't irritate my ears and are just so light. I think hooped earrings are so versatile to as you can wear them in the day or on a night out.

Los Angeles Woman Pleads Guilty to Conspiracy and Identity Theft
ROCHESTER, N.Y. -- U.S. Attorney William J. Hochul, Jr. announced today that Doree McGee, 39, of Los Angeles, California, pleaded guilty to conspiracy and aggravated identity theft charges before U.S. Magistrate Judge Marian W. Payson. The charges carry a mandatory minimum penalty of two years in prison, a maximum of 32 years, a fine of $250,000, or both.
Assistant U.S. Attorney John J. Field, who is handling the case, stated that in 2010 and 2011, McGee conspired with Cassandra Montrevel, and others, to defraud Bank of America. The scheme involved the defendants posing as actual Bank of America account holders. They used fake driver's licenses and other means of identification, and made cash withdrawals from actual customer accounts. Traveling from California to cities around the nation, McGee and others defrauded Bank of America of more than $325,000. The scheme came to an end on March 18, 2011, when Montrevel was arrested in a bank branch in Irondequoit, N.Y. Montrevel was convicted and sentenced to 70 months in prison for her role in the scheme.
The plea is the culmination of an investigation on the part of the United States Secret Service, under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Tracy Gast, the Monroe County Sheriff's Office, under the direction of Sheriff Patrick O'Flynn, the Gates Police Department, under the direction of Chief James VanBrederode, the Irondequoit Police Department, under the direction of Chief Richard V. Tantalo, and the Batavia Police Department under the direction of Chief Shawn Heubusch.A sentencing date will be scheduled at a later date.

Pupils work enthusiastically in lessons, both as individuals and in groups.
All pupils in Year 7 now have the opportunity to study both Latin and Classical Civilisation as part of a tailor-made carousel through which they can get a meaningful taster of these subjects in addition to the usual modern languages.
Harry Potter spells in Latin to help to bring the language to life, and readers of the 'Percy Jackson' series of books enjoy broadening their knowledge of the Greek gods!
All pupils in Year 8 and 9 have one double lesson per week to study the Classical World in greater depth; developing their linguistic skills in Latin and covering topics such as the Roman army and the Trojan War: Roman Food Day is always popular! At the end of Year 9, pupils can choose either (or both) Latin and Classical Civilisation as one (or both) of their GCSE options, both with the OCR exam board.
Latin is a good academic GCSE for pupils interested in studying Law for example, and also complements the range of modern languages. Classical Civilisation is a highly enjoyable course, especially popular with pupils who are enthusiastic about history. Classical Greek is also offered at GCSE as an extra subject off-timetable.
All three subjects are taught throughout by three specialist teachers who love their subject, and are glad that Plymouth College's broad curriculum allows every pupil the opportunity to study the Classical world. Pupils are also able to experience it at first hand on a variety of trips organised by the Classics Department; every three years we travel to Rome and the Bay of Naples, visiting Pompeii and Herculaneum and climbing Mount Vesuvius.
We are currently arranging a trip for thirty pupils to visit the island of Crete as a change from our other regular trip to Athens and other cities throughout the Greek mainland.
