text: Female Hormones - Why They Become Imbalanced Dr. Krysten DeSouza 22 January 2018 Collaborative Healthcare Network 5–3405 South Millway Mississauga, ON L5L 3R1 www.desouzanaturopathic.com They make us feel happy, they help us to sleep, they swing our moods in every direction, and they keep our metabolism revving. They have the potential to wreak havoc in our lives, but we just can't live without them. No, this article isn't about your spouse—it's all about hormones! Hormones are essentially signaling molecules. They are produced in one area of the body and have a target action on an organ that may be close or far away in the body. They travel through the bloodstream to get where they need to go and, once there, they create significant physiologic changes. We have hormones that regulate our reproductive organs, our metabolism and body temperature, our bone health, and much more. Of course, we are aware of some hormones more than others, but this only happens when they shift out of balance. Let's take a look at the female reproductive hormones. Estrogen is produced in the ovaries and plays an integral role in the menstrual cycle, bone health, pregnancy, and regulating other hormones. Luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) are high or low at certain parts of the cycle, depending which phase we are in. Progesterone is another key player, and is produced in the ovaries—and in the adrenal glands to a small degree. It is very important in maintaining pregnancy, signaling the second half of the menstrual cycle, and helping the body to produce cortisol when under prolonged stress. Cortisol is your main stress hormone and has effects on blood sugar, metabolism, sleep, blood pressure, and much more. To summarize the female hormone cycle, estrogen is high for the first half of the 28 day cycle, known as the follicular phase. LH and FSH spike at the halfway mark on day 14, causing ovulation to occur. Progesterone is important in the second half of the cycle—the luteal phase—and is a key part of preparing the body in the event that conception takes place. In an ideal world, every woman would be on a 28 day cycle with these perfectly synchronized hormone levels, and never experience premenstrual symptoms. That means no bloating, breast tenderness, ankle swelling, headaches, cravings, or mood swings! Unfortunately, this isn't the case for many women, and the discomfort of PMS has left many women taking sick days or turning to pharmacologic aids. So, what causes our hormones to become imbalanced? Stress Cortisol is not a reproductive hormone, but since it can take from progesterone stores to meet the demands of a stressful situation, it can create a lot of imbalance on your reproductive hormones. If you consider a teeter-totter with estrogen on one side and progesterone on the other, if we start to take progesterone and send it elsewhere, it will look as if there is an estrogen excess, even though estrogen levels haven't changed. Symptoms of high estrogen include breast tenderness, volatile emotions, yeast infections, weight gain, joint pain, headaches, and fluctuations in blood sugar.[1] Symptoms of progesterone deficiency include many of the symptoms of estrogen excess, along with insomnia; amenorrhea; hair loss; and dry skin, hair, and nails. If this is starting to sound familiar, implementing stress-management tools and supporting your adrenal glands are the best ways to help your hormones rebalance over time. Medications Also known as exogenous sources of hormones, the birth-control pill and any kind of hormone-replacement therapy are both ways we intentionally imbalance our hormones. There are many different kinds of oral contraceptives, but the majority have some combination of estradiol and progestin, which are metabolized by the liver.[2] The by-products of estrogen metabolism are often difficult for the liver to metabolize and can build up in the body, increasing the overall level of estrogen. Looking back at our analogy of the teeter-totter, if we are now increasing estrogen levels, it is going to look like we have a progesterone deficiency, and we will end up with a similar symptom picture to our stressed-out, high-cortisol individual. Things are a little different when we consider hormone-replacement therapy in postmenopausal women, because the endogenous production of hormones is significantly lower. However, as with the addition of any hormone, ensuring optimal liver and bowel function is integral to ensuring efficient metabolism and preventing buildup. Hormones in Food This is one of those things that everyone is aware of, but there is very little publicity about it, and we feel almost helpless to avoid it. Hormones are added to most meats, fish, eggs, and dairy products that we find in our regular grocery stores. According to the FDA, a number of steroid hormone drugs have been approved for use in beef cattle and sheep, including natural and synthetic forms of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone.[3] The hormones are added to increase the growth rate of the animal and encourage them to convert food into meat. Implants are often added under the skin or the back of the animal's ear, and the animal is constantly tested to make sure the hormone levels are safe for human consumption. Whether natural or synthetic hormones are used, very little is known about the effects of these hormones on humans—and especially in those consuming these products from a young age. In 2011, an article was written in the Huffington Post discussing the early menarche that is found in North American females. They found that the average age of menarche in the Western world began to decline in the early twentieth century due to the increased consumption of animal products, increased calorie intake overall, and resultant increase in childhood obesity.[4] The troublesome part of this discovery is the increased risk of certain cancers in these young women with prolonged estrogen exposure, and furthers the importance of avoiding hormone-fed animal products. Poor Lifestyle Habits It's no secret that obesity is on the rise in North America, and so are all our associated chronic diseases. The prevalence of childhood obesity is higher than it has ever been, and though the importance of exercise is growing in the school system, this must also be enforced at home to be successful. Children and adults who exercise regularly tend to be happier; sleep better; and have healthier appetites, improved energy, focus, and concentration overall.[5] Since fat tissue stores hormones, if we are in a state of hormone imbalance and are not exercising regularly, we won't be able to mobilize the stored hormones. On the other hand, excessive exercise can also be detrimental to our health, and if our body-fat percentage drops low enough, there is nowhere to store hormones, and the entire menstrual cycle can disappear. Moderation is key for most things, and exercise is no different! Just make sure you are enjoying whatever routine you are in, and giving yourself the necessary breaks and nutrients to help your muscles recover. Overwhelmed Routes of Elimination The ability of our bodies to digest foods, absorb nutrients, and excrete waste is the best place to start with any treatment plan. Healthy fats in the diet are responsible for the production of our hormones, essential vitamins help the hormones carry out their functions, and the liver is mainly responsible for breaking down the hormone once its job is done. We have four main pathways of elimination: skin, lungs, bladder, and bowels. We've already discussed the importance of exercise in breaking down fat stores and releasing waste products through the skin in the form of sweat. Next, our lungs really only help us when we are sick and are coughing up mucous. The kidneys are an important filtration system for water-soluble compounds metabolized by the liver and transported through the blood. Drinking adequate water in the day ensures that our kidneys have something to filter and supports our fluid elimination. Because hormones are fat-soluble compounds, they are metabolized by the liver and excreted through the bowels. Constipation increases our hormone imbalance and allows excess hormones to be reabsorbed from the intestines back into the blood. Take care of your digestive health, and keep your pathways of elimination open for optimal health all around! The management of hormone imbalance is a very individual thing, and will depend whether you are dealing with a picture of excess or deficiency and where the root cause lies. As a general rule for all women struggling with hormones, exercise regularly, drink adequate water, and fortify your diet with healthy fats and fibre to regulate the bowels. Get at least eight hours of sleep per night, and find a way to incorporate meditation and stress-management techniques into your day. If you meet all these requirements and feel like you need additional support, chat with a naturopathic doctor about the variety of natural tools and botanical herbs with powerful actions on regulating the female hormone cycle.

Final Destination 3
IMDB rate: 5,7
Genre: Supernatural
I thought, since I watched Final Destination 1 and 2, why not watch 3 too! I will stop at 3, because I don't own 4 and 5 and they're not worth downloading. Maybe someday I'll buy them on DVD when they're cheap or something, or when they're on television, but until that day, this will be all ;).
It has been quite some time since I first saw this movie. I think it's the very first Final Destination that I ever saw, and I really liked it back then. But now, after seeing Final Destination 1 and 2 a day before, I don't like it that much anymore. The idea is not really original anymore and everything is quite standard and predictable.
When Wendy Christensen has a vision of an accident on the roller coaster, resulting in her and her friends' deaths, she instantly begins to panic, causing more of her friends to be left of the ride. The remaining friends including Wendy's boyfriend, are stuck on the roller coaster and find themselves involved in the accident. With death waiting around the corner, Wendy and Kevin must try and work out death's plan, before they and the remaining survivors end up dead.
I must say that watching these three movies in a row is quite boring. The setting is different but the story is exactly the same. When you watch these movies separately they are fun to watch, but in a row is just like watching the same movie over and over again.
I must say that the acting in this movie was a lot better compared to the previous two movies. There were only two girls that were annoying but that also might have been the role that they played. I am a big fan of Mary Elizabeth Winstead, she's an amazing actress and also in this movie she's outstanding. The rest of the actors weren't that special, but I don't think this movie needs great acting. The storyline isn't very special but it is quite amusing when you're looking for a not-so-serious movie.
The deaths in these movies are different. Most of them are way too far-fetched, but they're fun to watch. Final Destination is always filled with skull bashing objects and that never fails to amaze me. Even though it looks fake and is far-fetched, it's amusing.
A thing that started bothering me in this movie is the endless build up to the next kill. Somebody accidentally touches something, from that moment on it's 5-10 minutes of things that are falling or moving what will eventually lead to a persons dead. We know it, he or she will die. Don't waste movie time with showing the entire reaction of somebody touching an object. In the previous movies it was also there, but not that obvious and annoying. It's like they did not know what to do with the spare time, so they did this instead.
Even though it got a bit boring after watching three of the same sort of movies in a row, I don't dislike Final Destination 3. It's a fun movie to watch with an enjoyable story. It's always filled with gore and good images. I just recommend not watching all Final Destination movies in a row, because in that case, it gets boring. I liked this movie better than Final Destination 2, but it's in no way better than the first Final Destination.
My personal rate: 6,5/10

DANBURY — The fourth annual American Dream Awards Gala Dinner will be held on Sept. 16 to honor members of the local immigrant community.
The gala is being hosted by the Tribuna Newspaper, a trilingual newspaper in Danbury, and The New American Dream Foundation, a new nonprofit organization that was created to serve as the philanthropic arm of Tribuna.
"The recent displays of racism and bigotry across the U.S., as well as right in our backyard in New Milford, are proof that the American Dream Awards is more than just a gala," said Emanuela Palmares, the foundation's vice president and editor of the Tribuna. "It is a statement that we as a community celebrate, support and welcome all people, and that is truly what makes America great."
The list of honorees include Farooq Kathwari, chairman and president/CEO of Ethan Allen Interiors Inc.; Danbury Probate Judge Dianne E. Yamin; Wilson Hernandez, president of the Ecuadorian Civic Center of Danbury; and four winners of $2,000 awards to be revealed at the gala.
Over $70,000 has been given in scholarships, awards and donations to the community through the event, according to a press release.
This year's gala will benefit "Mission Health Day" — a free day of health screenings and other community services in October for the uninsured and low-income residents hosted by Western Connecticut Health Network and Western Connecticut State University.
The nomination process for the 2017 American Dream Awards began last April and ended on June 15.
Three award categories were open to the public for nominations — American Dream Person of the Year, American Dream Student of the Year and American Dream Veteran's Award. The other two categories were selected by the Tribuna Newspaper editorial board — the American Dream Lifetime Achievement Award and the American Dream Leadership Awards.
Eighty-three applications were received from nominees who were born in the United States and others who migrated to Connecticut from Brazil, Peru, Mexico, Colombia, Ecuador, Republic of Macedonia, Thailand and India.
Eight finalists — two for the Person of the Year and six for Student of the Year — will receive two tickets to the gala. The four winners, revealed at the gala, will receive $2,000, the American Dream Awards statue and will have their names permanently displayed on a plaque in Danbury City Hall honoring Tribuna's American Dream Awards.
The 2017 Person of the Year finalists are Alvaro Tovar and Bernarda Sari, both Danbury residents.
The Student of the Year finalists are Nita Asani of Bethel; Jenifer Rojas-Orellana of Ridgefield; Sandra Pani, Zaida Coraizaca, Hilary Albarracin and Kittikorn Sathong, all from Danbury. Three winners will be revealed at the gala.
This year's Veteran's Award winner is Paulo Barros of Norwalk. Sgt. Barros left Brazil in 1993 when he was 10 years old and became a U.S. citizen in 2005. He was a gunner with the U.S. Marines and spent time in Afghanistan as a vehicle commander and gunner.
This year's American Dream Lifetime Achievement Award, which recognizes people whose life journeys have embodied the American Dream, goes to Kathwari, who arrived in the United States from Kashmir, seeking political asylum.
The American Dream Leadership Award recipients are Yamin, Hernandez and Dina Valenti, the clinic director of Boehringer Ingelheim AmeriCares Free Clinic of Danbury.
Tickets are $100 and can be purchased online. The event starts at 6 p.m. at the Amber Room Colonnade.

A number of legal reforms were proposed by the Law Commission and the Scottish Law Commission. The intention of these reforms is to protect consumers from unfair charges in contracts.
A report was released today due to which report, courts should have the power to rule on the fairness of prices in cases where they have been hidden away in the small print.
Courts now have the possibility to assess when the terms of the contract are fair and when they are not, but are not allowed to interfere when talking about the actual price.
The suggested reforms will give consumers the option to complain of unfair hidden costs.
These proposals will affect companies offering different kinds of services- from mobile phone contracts to airline tickets.
If prices are clear they will be able to set their own prices. The courts, however, would be allowed to intervene when they find unclear phrasing leading to additional fees or jargon which confuses consumers.
Many companies are in fact tempted to fill their contracts with hidden charges which makes them look as if they offer better deals than their competitors.
According to this report the current law makes it almost impossible for consumers to seek redress.
David Hertzell, the project's commissioner lead for the Law Commission, said: "The current law is baffling – so much so that consumers and regulators are reluctant to challenge unfair charges."
Both companies and customers now suffer from the unclearness of the law.
Another proposal of the Commission's report is on the terms of purchased software. According to it there must be serious changes in the terms to which consumers agree when installing software they have recently bought.
These terms are often full of legal jargon so that consumers are almost never able to find out what exactly they are signing up for
The Legal Stop values its customers and strives to provide the highest quality legal documents and document drafting possible, without any hidden charges.

One of the most striking features of this chapter is that the people really do not seem to be aware of their guilt. They cannot see why they should face judgment. "Why has the Lord decreed such a great disaster against us?" they ask. "What wrong have we done? What sin have we committed against the Lord our God?" (16:10). One of the most terrible indices of how far a people have strayed from righteousness is the degree to which they can no longer perceive their own guilt. Men and women who truly love righteousness and integrity are invariably aware when they breach it. The most holy people are blissfully aware of their corruptions and idolatries. So we must ask ourselves: where on this sort of spectrum are our churches found? Or our culture? Are we characterized by profound contrition, or by a frank inability to think that we have really done anything all that wrong? What does that say of us? What does that say about the Lord's stance toward us?
What say ye?

Typographically speaking, typing two spaces after a period ending a sentence is the wrong thing to do.
Extra space after a sentence was popular around the 19th Century, but these days it is no longer in fashion. By default LaTeX still adds the extra space, and you can turn it off with
\frenchspacing. Don't forget TeX's typesetting was inspired by early 20th Century textbooks and you can understand why the extra space is the default.
But let's get this clear: this extra space was used to help justify the lines of type without overly increasing the space between words inside the sentences themselves. That is to say: the extra space was not exactly two spaces wide. For some sentences it was more, sometimes less. (In some old books the extra space can be grotesquely large to my eyes.)
When typewriters came along, they needed all of the readability improvements they could get. Using a double space after the period works well to separate sentences that would otherwise run into each other visually. But proportional text doesn't have the same problems.
Even if you wanted to add extra space after your sentences, it should be the job of the typesetting program to do this for you. Just like you shouldn't hit Return twice in Word to separate paragraphs (if you know what you're doing), you shouldn't hit Space twice to separate sentences.
The only acceptable time I can concede that the double space is appropriate is for markup reasons. LaTeX does not support this, but a typesetting program that only added extra space in conjunction with the double space would be a little more elegant in cases where a period doesn't end the sentence (e.g., after an abbreviation). I'm not a big fan of LaTeX's syntax in this instance:
cf.\@ previous, where the
\@ suppresses the extra space that would normally be inserted. Luckily TeX is clever enough to assume that a period following an uppercase letter will generally not be ending a sentence, and suppresses the extra space automatically.
Let's just make life easy for ourselves and use

University of Edinburgh Business School has signed a "big data" partnership worth about £500,000 with retail chain Dixons Carphone to develop graduate knowledge and skills in data science and analytics.
The educational tie-up will help fund a major drive to develop teaching and research in data science in the business school. It will also include scholarships for promising applicants and will see the creation of a full-time academic role to champion big data – large volumes of often complex information – as well as giving the business school access to cutting-edge software and data for teaching and research. Professor Ian Clarke, dean of the business school, said the partnership will give students access to the latest applied insights and software. "Big data is now ubiquitous, so it's essential we equip the next generation of business leaders and entrepreneurs with the skills to manage and analyse it, for the benefit of organisations and their customers," he said.

If you've ever had anesthesia for at the hospital or doctor's office, or have undergone sedation dentistry, you may be familiar with the loopy, out-of-sorts feeling it can induce.
Lately it's been quite the popular internet trend to upload videos of patients fresh out of the hospital or dentist's office after having undergone sedation.
One hit video titled 'David After Dentist' shows a 7-year old boy right after getting out of his dentist's office. From his father's perspective, the video shows him sitting in the backseat of his car saying funny things and acting generally disoriented.
How Anesthesia Works
Anesthesia is most often introduced via an IV or gas. As it starts to work it will affect the cerebral cortex, brain stem, and spinal cord. The effects do not occur immediately, but rather in what has been categorized into four stages. The first part of the process is called induction, and it is when the patient first starts to feel affected. The excitement stage is second and in it the unconscious patient may have mildly irregular breathing or twitching. By stage three the patient is fully unconscious and is closely monitored. The fourth stage goes beyond the typical experience of anesthesia. It is not a common and constitutes an emergency.

On Tuesday this week, to celebrate my colleague Mirelle's birthday, the ladies and I lunch at The Apprentice. A light-filled, white-tableclothed room on the seventh floor of the TAFE NSW Sydney Institute in Ultimo, this is a training restaurant staffed by the chefs and hospitality students studying there. This is not your usual dining experience: on the plus side, lunch is three courses plus coffee for an amazing $22 per head, house wine comes at $3.50 per glass, and the standard of the food is pretty good, if fairly simple given that on the website it describes itself as a five-star outfit. On the minus side, even though there are three choices of starter, main and dessert we don't get to choose (it's a bit like being at a wedding where dishes are placed roughly alternately as they come out of the kitchen), and our two wait-staff are so nervous (one senses this is because they're being watched and evaluated constantly) that they fumble and panic and make a litany of mistakes. One girl starts clearing plates while some of us are still eating and then, on realising her error, puts the plates back in front of their owners saying, "I know it looks really bad but if I take the plates away before you've all finished I'll get busted!".
Anyway, to the food. I'm lucky in that I get all of the dishes I would have chosen. To start I have jamon and fig salad – half a sweet, grilled fig with little piles of salty jamon, crumbs of creamy feta, segments of firm baby beetroot and a lemon vinaigrette. It's delicious and very pretty to look at.
This is followed by teriyaki salmon with green bean and apple salad, served with rice. The salmon is slightly overcooked for my liking which is for it to be still translucent in the middle – not to everyone's taste, I acknowledge. I like the sticky teriyaki glaze on the fish but the sauce on the plate could do with a bit more body to help it coat each forkfull. The rice is very plain but the accompaniment of crisp, Granny Smith apple is a nice, unexpected touch. Overall, however, there's not enough going on in the flavour stakes here.
The birthday girl is presented with oven baked rib eye beef fillet with potato puree, mushroom gratin, asparagus and jus. This dish is the winner of the day for me – the thick piece of beef is tender and flavourful and the gratin topping rich and tasty.
My dessert is apple tarte-tatin with butterscotch and vanilla ice cream. The pieces of apple are a bit too firm but the pastry is a flaky delight and the vanilla ice cream (I couldn't really taste any butterscotch) is beautifully creamy and speckled with plenty of tiny black vanilla seeds.
I would definitely recommend this place for the amazing value it represents – and it's nice to be assisting in the education of our future restauranteurs – but with the caveat of a warning about the slightly shambolic service.

Hi crafters!
It's Rachelle here today sharing my DT inspiration on
for this week's challenge!
This challenge theme is about
October Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
TT#267~"You Have My Support."
"Think Pink~Hope!"
More Views:
It is so true that coloring is relaxing and the best therapy.
I really enjoyed creating this design. Probably because
pink is one of my fave colors and I support BCA.
I colored the ribbon using my spectrum noir markers
then began adding the embellishments.
To help make the design stand out I used:
pearls, tiny rosebuds, wood chippes, lace, pink heart brads,
rhinestones, ribbon bow, and metal corners.
I will be entering my design for these challenges:
Sights-Pink Ribbon (BCA)
This week's lovely Sponsor is
Well that's it for now!
Thanks so much for stopping by today. Remember to...

To understand William's fury and that determined, teeth-set face following the news that the French magazine Closer was publishing topless pictures of Kate , you need to put it in context.
First he is a man appalled to see intimate shots of his woman spread across the pages of a tawdry magazine, seen by millions of leering blokes.
Second he is a loving husband who sees his wife desperately upset that she may have been the innocent cause of embarrassment to the royal family. But above all he is a son whose mother died because of the actions of the paparazzi in France.
I remember Diana complaining to me about being physically shoved by photographers trying to get a better shot. At that time, it was just shoving, which she found above all, rude. I think she reluctantly accepted that as part of the job.
But it was when the name calling began that it really got to her and I know she found the lone wolf, single man on a bike types representing foreign magazines, really scary, partly because she never knew what lengths they would go to.
Worryingly, it was a group of these types that continued to stalk her at a time when the British press had backed off.
And now William sees the actions of the paparazzi beginning to haunt Kate as they haunted his mother. When he was a child, William regularly saw his mother reduced to tears of frustation, rage and misery by the paparazzi who hounded her.
There were incidents when they blocked her car, when she thought they would cause an accident to others while chasing her, when they called her vile names in order to get a reaction shot.
They sprang out from behind dustbins, they lurked in the shadows, constantly watching. William was exposed to all this and saw at first hand what it did to her.
He saw her paranoia about always being watched or followed, her isolation when she was denied the normality of everyday life. And he saw her denied any place of refuge for it seemed that nowhere was private.
And then, when he was still an impressionable adolescent, William's adored mother died in a horrific car accident in Paris. He blamed the foreign paparazzi for her death, as did all the Royal Family and indeed most of the public.
The direct cause of Diana's death was that the car she was in was being driven by someone with a fatal delusion. Henri Paul believed what he'd drunk that night would not affect his ability to drive – but of course, it did. It blunted his reactions but worse, it puffed up his own sense of superiority.
Could he outwit the pursuing pack of paparazzi? Of course he thought he could. He had begun to taunt them before Diana and Dodi had even left the Ritz in Paris.
But the inquest headed by Lord Justice Scott Baker in April 2008 could not have been more clear. Diana died not just because of Henri Paul but also the 'grossly negligent drivers of the following vehicles'.
They were the paps desperate for a shot of Diana and Dodi. That was 15 years ago and a nightmare William thought had passed. And now here it is all over again.
He lost his mother to the foreign photographers, he will do absolutely everything in his power to prevent the same thing happening to Kate.
Don't imagine for a minute that William, who puts a huge amount of effort into protecting Kate, will take this lying down. He made sure she was surrounded with a great team and they had time alone together in Anglesey to help her adapt to the storm ahead.
And now here is a magazine, owned by that "bunga-bunga" sleazeball Silvio Berlusconi piercing the heart of the citadel he has erected to protect his wife. There might have been a time when photographers could get away with pictures of the Royal Family because they never took legal action, but William is different. He will protect Kate. It is his duty above all to her but also to the memory of his mother.
Years ago I was with Diana at an event at a time when there was huge speculation about the length of time that she and Charles had spent apart.
I walked out into Regent Street with her to be met by the biggest press pack I have ever seen.
Every bulb flashed at once. I found it incredibly intimidating – and this was an occasion when Diana expected to be photographed. Now imagine that you are being photographed – no, hunted – as if you were big game, where there is no place of sanctuary or peace. It is incredibly frightening.
William and Kate are public figures, possibly among the most famous people in the world. That does not entitle us to own them 100% of the time. They were in a private home, owned by Lord Linley.
The house was secluded, they were on holiday relaxing before a tough royal tour – and there is no reason for Kate to be remonstrating with herself for having taken her bikini top off. She was on holiday, off duty and in a family home.
Cast your mind back 15 years. We all knew then that we were culpable in Diana's death. We bought the papers with the pictures. We made those magazines that featured her on the front bestsellers. And now here we are again.
There are people condemning the French magazine while reaching at the same moment for Google. The British press has moved on since those awful events 15 years ago.
Even before the Leveson inquiry began, I do not believe any British newspaper would have taken these pictures and not just because they might have had their knuckles rapped by the Press Complaints Commission.
It's because people feel differently today about intrusion. Uncomfortable, voyeuristic and yes, we're especially sensitive about it in Britain.
I hope that William's swift and decisive legal action is successful but I also hope that those people who are looking at the pictures feel guilty because they know where it all led when it was Diana – to her death.
The shadow of Diana: Kate was bound to be compared to William's late mother
Comparisons between Kate and Diana were inevitable as soon as William gave her his mother's blue sapphire and diamond engagement ring.
William wanted his mother to be remembered. In the couple's first interview after the engagement, he said "this is my way of keeping her close to it all".
It was pointed out that Diana was an iconic figure and parallels were bound to be drawn with Kate.
But he insisted Kate would be her own woman. "There's no pressure.. no one's trying to fill my mother's shoes. It's about making your own future and your own destiny and Kate will do a very good job of that."
Kate said: "I would love to have met her and she's obviously an inspirational woman to look up to."

Johnny's debut single in 1963 as a solo artist and first big hit was "Hymyhuulet" (finnpicked here), and on it's flipside was this rarely heard "Iltaseuraa" (Company for the evening). The arrangements were done by Jaskko Salo and the Finnish lyrics by Saukki. The original "String Along" was originally a Top 40 US hit for Fabian (b. Fabian Forte) in 1960. But it gained greater success in 1963 when versioned by Rick Nelson. It peaked number 25 in Billboard Hot 100 Chart and it was surely the inspiration for Johnny's recording. You can see Rick perform it, here.
80 Finnpicks to go.
