After hiking back through the Arbotretum Crimson dismissed Shaak-Rom with a curt, "Get some rest," and clumped off to her own quarters to take her own advice. She had been sleeping before this whole thing started…
System jump drives: Kladerine Collective technology that had been butchered and shared out to the rest of the galaxies. The exotic species of hundreds of worlds would still be trekking around in clunky, sub light-speed vessels like the Rival Bay if it had not been for the once benevolent, now defrauded cooperative of technical gurus who had invented the Jump Drive. Oh, they called it something else, but the Universal Language reduced the miracle of science to a childhood expression.
It wasn't wormhole tech either. The Pilgravians and Solazge and maybe a few others used something along those lines. It no doubt helped that neither of them had traditional humanoid or organic forms to lose in the poorly documented 'twisting' that occurred in such wormhole transitions.
No, the 'Collectine' Jump was still flying through space technically. But it was wizardry for all anybody knew. Crimson had put her Mindframe to it once, to crunched through the equations that a few rogue scientists had tried to 'make accessible' to the plebian masses. Something about pulling cosmic strings like a bow then releasing them with enough tension to bend through Space/Time. Something like that. Even her cybernetic implants did little to help with that.
Regardless, in 32 hours they would reach Khibarra.
It was a big step up from the age of stone-wheel anti-matter combustion and nuclear fusion. Photon sailing was just a thing for the nostalgic, and the Sail Races of Bodyssee System.
A day and a half, roughly, of jump time. Earth II operated on a 22 hour day, and Crimson hadn't seen any reason to deviate from that method. She assumed she was from Earth II. It must have been familiar to her subconscious. Her Mindframe seemed to recall facts about the galaxies most extensively from there; it was the human home world (except for Mars in the Sol System; but that was so far afield in the estranged Milky Way Galaxy it was sometimes considered more of an ancient sect of humanity than the initial colony world after Earth I). Twenty-two hour days made for 7-hour-and-20-minute shifts. A random number she had to admit, but it seemed a reasonable length for most crew to work. Many races throughout the cosmos were used to longer days, so complainers were fairly rare. If anyone griped about it, they were welcome to get off at the next stop. She kept contracts short like that.
They had a pecking order aboardship. She was the top. Andross thought he was second, but Gator actually was. Anybody could be conscripted to help with anything that went wrong. That mostly meant Gator pulled people into his services for labor duties maintenancing the massive ship. Even Crimson helped, and she made anybody who shirked work do double until they either fell in line or got off ship.
Gator kept their first day full once they hit Jump to Khibarra. After that the crew had some down time to spend as they wished. Once in system, they had sub light propulsion to take them where they needed to be along magnetic tradeways. Six more hours until they reached Qualvana: their port of call.
Egg fu yung had brought Andross to the table. It was still hours to Khibarra System and then 6 more to Qualvana. Dinnertime was the most excitement he'd had all day. Basically a day off-duty, save for a shift monitoring the cockpit. He ditched his MiPie flight armor for a comfortable t-shirt and trousers, beat Krevvenar five times at darts, shot some hoops in the cargo bay alone, and did whatever else he could to stave off boredom until dinner. He slumped heavily into the bench in the mess hall. Just off the circular common area in the crew cabins, the kitchen/mess was another glitz of the ancient ship's former glory back when space flight was a thing of the dark ages. Whoever the inhabitants of the generation seed ship had been, they'd left enough room for large shifts of the several hundred colonists to dine together. Andross was just glad Crimson had had the sense to drag two tables closer to the kitchen serving window so they didn't have to carry food across the whole room.
The smell of that crazy old gardener's cooking was a scent for sore nose. Whatever the eco-king had concocted was finally going to soothe Andross' hollow stomach; one thing he didn't mind about riding around the universe in the dumpy old Rival was the food.
He allowed his hopes to brighten slightly when Cort, the Ilslavian space-rat, and Shaak-Rom the red, white, and blue Trivven showed up. Maybe they could have a few laughs or Shaak would tell some crazy stories from the Legacy Order. Andross had left the brawling bars of Talconis VII and the high stakes races for this gig. Jumping punks and criminals was fun, but the incessant waiting between worlds and systems… Andross would almost rather face the Tax Man. Now that they were doing some dairy run for some funky spoor traders—spoors that could explode and poison the whole ship—there was little to look forward to at the end of the journey.
"Com'on boys and girls, I'm starving!" Andross banged his spoon.
"Hey! Don't break my plates…!" The grumpy gardener-chef scowled over the serving counter from the low vantage point of his mobility chair, "… again!" He shoved a heavy pot onto the stainless steel work surface.
"Maybe it wouldn't break if there was some food on it." retorted Andross.
"Maybe I'll throw yours out the airlock, and you can put it on your plate yourself!" Keffler wheeled his chair around and scooted back into the kitchen for something.
Cort stepped over the table's attached bench and sat down the way any large rodent might sit at the edge of its food dish (if it were dressed in a dirty cover-all with a utility belt). His rodent hands and feet were furry, and the little sucker could scamper all-the-heck over the ship like it was his own plastic playscape.
"Ohhh, you look so cute when you sit like that!" Andross cooed.
Cort's beady black eyes hardened and be bared his buck teeth, "Gimme' yer finger." He snapped his incisors.
Shaak-Rom, goody boy, carried the pot of steaming food to the table. His blue and white striped flesh-locks—living tentacles dangling from his head—twitched near the food.
"Hey!" Andross snipped, "Keep your dreads out of the soup!"
The Trivven set the pot on the table, piled high with egg-and-vegetable clumps, and bared his teeth in a sharp-toothed smile. "Smells good, doesn't it." His dreads flicked again… smelling the food?
Andross grimaced openly. What do those things do? He wondered. The similarly striped horns that rose from the Trivven's red head were obvious: dangerous, heavy, boney protrusions that likely wooed females and gouged rival males. But the sometimes animate, sometimes innate dangly bits… Anybody's guess.
The crew continued to filter in. Braevel, the medic, Krevvenar, Olper. Others were on duty. Some always came late.
Andross plunged his spoon into the pile of steaming fu yung and plopped several onto his plate even as he saw Crimson enter the Mess Hall. Her clanky foot gave her away before she appeared and strode between the empty tables. She could have been a pretty woman except for her crude robotic arm and leg, and unusually flat chest. The attractive face was lost under the dark eyes and expression; the purple Mohawk fallen sideways (and sometimes into her face) made her look like a gothic Mist-prostitute. Not that he minded a little Mist, or a prostitute. He would be the laughing stock of Talconis VII, working for woman like Crimson, if she wasn't every bit as tough as an angry Legacy War vet. But she had needed a pilot, and he needed to get off-world for a bit.
The bounty hunting was a fun gig. He was a quick learner with the maser rifles, and side arms he'd carried as a precaution for some time. Converting the empty shuttle bay for a practice range had given him a chance to get better with his pistol at a range longer than a meter. He'd only really needed point-blank skills on Talconis. The funnest bounties the Rival's crew took on were the ones that ran. It was like Missile racing on foot. But since Shaak had joined they'd taken to planning their raids a bit more. It was a shame really. A little disorganization provided the extra element of chance that made it more exciting. Besides, half of the bounties crumpled to the ground pleading for a second chance. Never gave a body a chance to fire a maser. They shouldn't waste their only chance at the fun ones.
"Andross," Crimson quipped. Her voice was lower than he liked his women. "Save some for the rest of us."
Andross shoved a wad of the glorified veggie omelet into his mouth, and relished the warmth on his palate. "Hey!" he said around the mouthful, "You're just lucky I waited!"
Keffler drove up with another pot, this one filled with a rudely tossed salad. "Three-a-piece, flyboy!"
Andross threw his hands in the air as he swallowed. "Unless you're a giant lizard! Speaking of which, is the big lug eating tonight? Don't want to see the show, if I can avoid it."
Cort and a few others grumbled audibly, but Andross defended himself. "Hey, if I wanted to see a croc death roll, I'd watch an Earth II nature special Link-burst!"
"Hey, midgets, where's the grub?" the booming, raspy voice of the enormous space-a-saur Gator thudded into the Mess like a natural disaster, tail swishing along the floor looking for hapless princesses to crush.
Keffler tossed a hand behind himself, "Veggie tonight, Gator. Yours is in the deep freeze."
"Righto!" Godzilla passed them by, and stomped off into the kitchen to forage for his own kill.
Andross let his groan be heard around the table. "Here we go."
"If you have a problem, you can have it in your cabin." Crimson was halfway through dragging her robotic leg over the table's bench. Andross wondered if she left her mascara to fade down her cheeks, or if she really just looked like that.
"Hey! I just didn't want to see another wildebeest get mauled." Andross folded one elbow across the table and slouched himself in front of his dish.
Shaak-Rom added his baritone voice to the pig-pile. "We all have our own ways. Our brother must eat to fill three times our stomachs." The stripey devil forked his own food into his mouth, but Andross noticed a weird tentacle dribbled on his plate, maybe tasting the egg.
In a moment the heavy tread of Gator returned. A massive, frozen flank of dark, raw meat hung in his huge paws. Andross froze in anticipation, his eyes tracking the Megladyte, waiting for the gruesome show. Gator sat back on his tail like a bean bag chair, close to the table where the crew sat. His jaws opened like scissors to receive the sacrifice. With a snap, half of the carcass tore off. Then the reptile tossed back his head and snapped and choked the poor frozen animal down with much slavering and slurping. Andross shook his head and tried to think pleasant fu-yung thoughts.
"So how long will this spoor business take?" Andross said, trying to squint his left eye to avoid Gator's feast.
"Time table's posted in the log," Crimson growled.
"Yeah, but, anything on the police bursts? Do we have any bounties when we get there?"
"We're in jump, you wanna catch a wave?"
"I'm just sayin', feels like we've cashed in, doin' a milk run like this."
Crimson erupted like a solar flare. Her usually sluggish robotic arm fired like a piston, smashing the table with enough force that few egg patties were left on their wobbling plates. She rocked to her feet, her metal thigh colliding with the table and pushing the whole thing, crew and benches included, a several inches back with a loud screech. Her human hand was on his shirt, and her nails scratched him through the cloth as she yanked him forward.
"You will respect my decision! The payoff is more than adequate for this job, and we need the money for repairs! We'll be back hunting down slime the instant we've off loaded these diablo spoors, and you can load them on the Boatman yourself! Now get outta my Mess!"
Crimson released Andross' collar fiercely, nearly pushing him over his seat. Before he could respond, she heaved her own leg over the bench and stormed off through the Mess. A down-thrust of her cybertnetic arm made yet another table jump like a clown's see-saw, and then Peg the Pirate was gone.
Andross cursed. "Over react much?"
There was venom in Keffler's laugh, "Never poke a cyborg, kid."
Andross glowered, and sat back down.
"You heard the lady," rumbled Gator. His hard predator eyes mixed with the bloodied jaws for a complete picture of horror. "Show yourself out."
"You gonna make me?" Andross snapped, "Besides she's left—"
Gator rose to his feet, dropping the half-shank of cow on the neighboring table, and sporting his crocodile grin. "I would love to make you."
"All right, all right!" Andross tossed his hands, "It was just a joke, big guy." Throwing his egg back on his plate Andross made sure to make a dragging sound with both the plate and spoon as he yanked away from the table. He channeled his sarcasm into his boots as he stomped off, muttering, "What's everybody's problem?!"
Crimson flicked the nav ball on her personal console as if the speed of her wrist could bat the anger away like a fly. Andross was right: what were they doing? She'd taken a cushy sounding trade job, and all the while criminals were traipsing free through the solar systems, wreaking havoc. The only problem was she was right too: there was nothing in the database from their short stint of Berkatol that could give them a lead on slime either back on Berkatol or in the Khibarra system. She spun the nav ball roughly, sending the digital display flying.
A heavy clanking on the grate outside her door told her Gator was out there before his meaty hand thumped on the bulkhead. She thought she heard her name, muffled through the reinforced wall.
Crimson slouched back in her chair, and stared darkly for a moment at the scrolling display. With a begrudging sigh she levered herself up and clanked across to the pressure sealed door. Giving it a hefty crank she released the door clamps, and swung it open. The terrifying visage of a primeval predator crowded the space in the hallway, as Gator hunkered to try and angle his snout to see her.
"You okay?" his gravelling bass voice asked.
Crimson jutted her jaw in thought, and turned darkly back to the interior. She resumed her post by the endless, useless datastream. Gator set about the task of grunting and maneuvering his bulk inside. Once in he squat-waddled closer and sat back on his tail.
"Andross is right; we're wasting time."
"My engines don't think an easy payoff for some nifty repairs is a waste."
"We should be out hunting."
"Hunting what? Space squid? We'll make Qualvana soon enough."
Crimson's mood wasn't going to budge that easily. She remained dark, inwardly burning.
Gator cleared his massive throat. "Um, you readin' that?" He pointed to the dizzying display.
She refused eye contact.
Gator reached over her good shoulder and with a touch of his index claw he stopped the rotating display. He rested his arms on his knees. "Look. Andross is a bork. You made a good call for the ship an' crew."
"We're just so diablo… Useless!" she finally vented. "We're doing nothing!"
"Hey! If you're bored you can pull double duty until we reach next port!" Gator quoted her favorite threat to lazy crew. "I've got a diablo ship to run here!"
She glared up at him. If she had any sense of humor she would have probably laughed. She wondered if she had one before she lost her arm, leg, and humanity. Gator's crocodile grin was infuriating.
"So…?" he pushed, "You getting' off at the next planet, or not?"
Again, her ultimatum to the whiners.
"Screw you, you frikkin', salamander." Her words lacked sincerity. It was the best she could do.
Gator caught her meaning through the dark cloud of hostility. His smile widened, and he plopped a massive paw over her head and pulled her shock of purple hair forward with a heavy hand. Then he waddled around and wedged his bulky frame out the door.

One simple letter has driven me into the depths of bureaucracy ! Someone, and by someone I mean the f%$king human who typed my daughters birth certificate, made a typo. A simple error, no big deal, that in the real world can be fixed in an instant. But not in the state of New York, oh no!
In the state of New York you must jump through hoop after hoop only to correct what should have been done correctly the first time around. My name is spelled correctly, my husbands name is spelled correctly, but my daughters is missing a T !!! A simple T has forced us into waiting in line at the social security office, sending in copies of our passports, etc. So this letter is to the state of New York's vital records department.
Yourself !!

The Diocese of Leeds has the largest church programme of choral music for young people in the United Kingdom. Our Choral Directors work with some 3500 children weekly (over 100 groups across 53 schools), returning to their bases to run our elite choirs; 6 boys' choirs, 6 girls' choirs, 5 mixed children's choirs, 2 youth choirs, 3 university choirs and an adult choir, all drawing their membership from our school sessions. more »
Each year HCPT organise a pilgrimage to Lourdes, the Marian shrine in the South of France. As part of the fund raising for the local HCPT a charity concert was staged at St. Winefride's Catholic Church in Wibsey, Bradford featuring local choirs and soloists.
Featured soloist was baritone Mr Dominic Rose, a member of Leeds Cathedral Adult Choir and a local music teacher. Dominic enthused the audience with a wide variety of music ranging from 'Panis Angelicus' through to 'The Last Chord' by Arthur Sullivan.
The concert opened with St. Bedes Male Voice Choir under the direction of Chris McElroy. In just 6 weeks time the choir will compete in the OPAL Choir Competition in the Royal Albert Hall in London! This was the first of 4 warm-up performances for the big day in April, and the choir did a great job singing music from America, England, Italy and Spain. Watch out for more info on this choir soon!
The Bradford Youth Choir works with 18 Catholic schools in the Bradford area, and we were fortunate that two of our primary school choirs were able to perform at this concert, braving the sub zero temperatures outdoors! Hosts St Winefride's delighted the audience with a performance of 'All Things Bright and Beautiful.' This was followed by St. Anthony's, Clayton who sang the Lenten song 'Praise to You, O Christ our Savior.' Both choirs, trained by Christopher Johns (Choral Director for the Diocese of Leeds) filled the church with their singing!
The evening concluded with performances from the Bradford Boys' Choir , the elite choir for boys singing in Bradford. The choir sang music by Malcolm Archer, Vaughan Williams and Moses Hogan.
After the concert choirs and audience alike retired to the church hall for refreshments and to learn more about the work of HCPT.

The iconic George Nelson Saucer Lamp in the Room of the Week was created by one of last centuries most famous designers. This particular style of lamp comes in three sizes: small (17.5″ diameter), medium (25″), and large (36″). You can find these lamps in many shops online (DWR, Room & Board, Y Living)…but they are all priced pretty much exactly the same. They aren't expensive, and really haven't ever been.
Here is a little chart from the George Nelson website showing the lamps with their original prices:
An iconic design that was affordable then and now!

FCAT & Daylight Savings TIme
I am pretty sure the people running the schools in this state do not have children. This week is Florida Comprehensive Achievement Test(FCAT). The big state test that all the teachers must teach to in order to keep their school at a high grade. The brilliant No Child Left Behind Program, yes that was sarcasm.
Daylight Savings Time started this weekend, so the kids who have to take the FCAT, lost an hour of sleep, have to wait for the bus in the dark and the best part is the buses in Volusia are coming 15 minutes earlier starting tomorrow, in order to be sure no one is late. (ARE YOU KIDDING ME?)
If you have kids you know how hard it is to get them to bed, try doing it the first few days of Daylight Savings Time. I am curious as to why the brilliant powers that be in this state did not have the FCAT the week before spring break, or last week, or any other week but this one? That would make sense.

Accident at Wombwell Main Colliery
Yesterday a pony driver named Samson Ellis, aged about 15, and living with his parents in Park Street Wombwell, sustained a fracture of the thigh whilst following his work at Wombwell Main colliery.
The pony he was driving fell down, and in attempting to rise reared backwards onto Ellis and crushed him to the ground.
He was attended to by Doctor Miller, who set the broken limb at the boy's home.

Welcome to the Collaborator competition. This is your chance to participate in creating a successful commercial beer in collaboration with the Widmer Bros. Brewing Co. It's a serious event, and a high honor accrues to the winner(s). But it's not about eliteness, it's about the beer.
Congratulations to the 2017 Competition Winners!

Register for the 2018 Competition
2018 Entry Info:
Entry Cut-off: Friday May 25th, end of the day, at F. H. Steinbart Co. Homebrew Supply
Judging Date: Wednesday, May 30th at Widmer
Questions? Email the Collaborator Committee
Entry Information (by Noel Blake)
Eligibility and Entry Limitations:
All current Oregon Brew Crew members are eligible. Each member may submit up to two (2) total entries as brewer or co-brewer. Entries must be brewed on a home brewing system, including the OBC pilot system. Entries brewed in a professional brewing facility (brewpub, you-brew) are not allowed. OBC members working in a professional brewing facility are welcome to enter as long as the beer is a homebrew.
Widmer will pay for the ingredients for one five-gallon batch of beer per entry under the following conditions. The ingredients must be purchased at Steinbart's and direct-charged to Widmer's account upon presentation of your current Oregon Brew Crew membership card. There will be no reimbursement from receipts.
Entry Packaging:
We need a minimum of two 33cl or 12 oz. (or larger) bottles for the competition, one for the preliminary round and one for the taste-off round. You may subsitute one 22 oz. or larger bottle, however that is not recommended because your beer will be at a significant disadvantage during the taste-off round when compared to other entries poured from fresh bottles. We also need two more bottles for a lab analysis at Widmer that is mandatory should your beer be selected. If your beer is selected and you do not have the analysis samples from the same batch of beer, your entry will be disqualified. If you submit all four bottles with your entry, you will receive a complementary lab analysis from Widmer even if you do not win. This is an optional, free benefit to Collaborator participants.
All entries must be packaged in competition-ready bottles. That means: glass containers affixed with a crown cap, with all labels and markings removed. Raised lettering on a bottle is acceptable. Any cap markings must be obliterated with a Sharpie. Affix entry information with rubber bands, no tape or glue, please.
Entry Information:
Entry registration will be on-line at http://collaborator.oregonbrewcrew.org/. There will be a Collaborator entry instance under the Competition tab.
The following information is required:
Another significant difference in Collaborator competitions is that judging is not done on the traditional 50-point BJCP scale. We do not use numerical scores, and we do not strictly follow the BJCP style guidelines. We judge your beer as would a professional brewer, a publican, or a knowledgeable beer consumer. We are looking for beers that are flavorful and engaging, not necessarily the biggest or most unusual.
The judges may award from 0 to many Collaborator winner slots. Normally three beers are selected each year. Results will be announced before or during June general meeting.
Widmer will pay for the ingredients for up to 5 gallons for each entry. The best way to do this is to direct charge at Steinbart's (please call ahead to get instructions from Steinbart's staff). The on-the-spot reimbursement for ingredients only happens at Steinbart's, and the OBC member needs to show their valid 2017 OBC membership card when they purchase. Widmer no longer accepts receipts for reimbursement going forward. Again, only on-the-spot, and only at Steinbart's, and only with a 2017 OBC card.
Complimentary lab analysis, including gravity measurements and IBU, are discussed above.
Winning entries receive a potential slot in the Collaborator program. The brewers will be contacted when their beer is ready to be brewed – this may take up to a year or more. All official brewers and co-brewers will be invited to participate in the recipe formulation, brewing and marketing of the beer. At the time the beer is released, one (and only one) Collaborator jacket will be awarded to the winning brewer or team.
Hints and Tips:
Be expressive, authentic, and true to yourself in selecting which beer to brew or enter. Have your beer evaluated honestly before choosing an entry. In fact, try forming a small group of homebrewers to critique each others' beers.
Above that, we are looking for great pub beers. That means something you will enjoy more than one pint of. We recommend that the O.G. be kept to 1.075 or below, but that is your call if you think you can seduce the judges with your high gravity brew.
We are looking for at least one (but not necessarily all) of the following:
• Drinkability: multi-pint potential.
• Wow factor: does the beer captivate without gimmicks?
• Unusual style: impress us with your arcane beer knowledge
• Execution: the better the beer in the bottle, the better your chances
History of the Collaborator Project
The Collaborator Project is a collaboration between home brewers in the Oregon Brew Crew and Rob and Kurt Widmer of Widmer Brothers Brewing. It all started when the Widmers' and fellow Oregon Brew Crew members were talking about how few craft beer styles were available. At the time, craft brewing was holding to the popular styles. If you lived in America and wanted a Belgian Wit or Schwarzbier, you had to depend on beers from Europe. The fact was that these esoteric styles would never be profitable for commercial breweries in the US.
Kurt and Rob looked at that as an opportunity and challenged the Oregon Brew Crew to have an annual competition where the best of the club's beers, regardless of style, would brewed and served by Widmer Brothers Brewing.
In the spring of 1998, the first beer chosen was Scott Sander's English Brown Ale. However, for whatever reasons, a Milk Stout was the first to be brewed and was served in the summer of 1998.
This Stout became known as the Collaborator Stout and was an instant success. Over the years, this Collaborator beer has probably been brewed more often than all of the subsequent Collaborator beers combined. Its popularity was further boosted when it became the AHA's Big Brew recipe for National Homebrew Day in 1999. That was surpassed when Widmer Brothers Brewing tweaked the original recipe and introduced the Collaborator Milk Stout as Snow Plow Stout in 2004 as their annual winter seasonal. This beer won a Great American Beer Festival gold medal. Snow Plow Stout is Widmer Brothers Brewing's best selling seasonal beer. Rob and Kurt honored the Oregon Brew Crew by including a short history of the Collaborator project and a Brew Crew Logo on the six pack holders.
All of this is not even the best part of the Collaborator Project. With every barrel of Collaborator beer that Widmer Brothers Brewing sells, they donate $4 to the Bob McCracken Scholarship Fund which supports students at the Oregon State University Fermentation Science program under the direction of Dr. Thomas Shellhammer. Through this program, Widmer Brothers Brewing has donated tens of thousands of dollars, and continues this tradition proudly.
Walk in to the Widmer Brothers Pub any time of the year, and you'll likely find a Collaborator beer or two on tap. As a matter of fact, starting 2016, Noel Blake's "Steel Bridge Porter" has been selected as a year-round brew to join Widmer's other core beers. Each year more Collaborator beers are chosen during the annual competition held in Spring exclusively for Oregon Brew Crew members. Will your beer be the next?

Erode: A surgeon at a private hospital here has claimed to have bettered a Guinness Record by removing a whopping 4,294 gallstones totally weighing 300 grams from the bladder of a 63-year old man.
The laparascopic surgery was performed recently on Duraisamy, a retired Village Administrative Officer, who had complaints of back pain.
A scan revealed the presence of gallstones in the bladder and the patient was advised to go for surgery during which 4,294 small gallstones were removed, Dr T K Swamy said.
The patient is keeping good health now.
Swamy claimed removal of 4,294 stones from the bladder was a Guinness record. Earlier, in Germany 3,110 stones were removed from the bladder of a woman.
He said he would approach Guinness Records for entry of his feat.

Osteopaths use their in-depth knowledge of anatomy to focus on how the joints, muscles, nerves, circulation, connective tissue and internal organs function together as a holistic unit.
Or call our friendly reception
03 9482 4325
Osteopathy is a form of manual healthcare, which recognises the important link between the structure of the body and the way it functions. Osteopaths use their in-depth knowledge of anatomy to focus on how the joints, muscles, nerves, circulation, connective tissue and internal organs function together as a holistic unit.
Using skilled evaluation, diagnosis and a wide range of gentle hands-on techniques, osteopaths can identify and address areas of sub-optimal function to encourage the body towards greater health. Osteopathic treatment uses techniques such as stretching and myofascial release for treatment of the soft tissues (muscles, fascia, tendons, ligaments) along with mobilisation of specific joints to improve range of movement.
How can Osteopathy help?
Osteopathy is used to treat a wide range of symptoms associated with imbalance, tension and disorders of the various systems of the body, and is safe for children, pregnant woman and the elderly.
Conditions, which may benefit from osteopathy include:
- Acute or chronic pain

- Stress-related tension
- Poor posture
- Dance & sports injuries
- And much more!
Osteopathy is safe and effective during pregnancy; please see Pregnancy support for more details.
What can I expect from a treatment?

An attempt is being made to save the Sherwood Fire station or Fire Station 2 as its called in Charlottetown.
Ward 10 City Councillor Terry Bernard brought up the issue at the July public meeting yesterday.
He says it would make sense to keep the fire hall which is located on St. Peters Road as it would help keep response times in place.
The City also Station 1 located downtown on Kent St. that will remain open.
A new fire station is to be built ion Malpeque Road near Sherwood Road which will help better serve growing areas like Winsloe, West Royalty and East Royalty.
Bernard says the Sherwood station comes rent free to the City and has 38 firefighters.
He would like to see it stay open.

Well, it is *actually* a couch cover, but it still took a mountain of dye. This little gem was brought back by S from one of his Pink Floydian Road Trips. His host and hostess, R & M, requested that I dye their couch cover. It was a sickly shade of baby aspirin before I started. Knowing full well that they are into the psychedelic thing, and after inventorying my dyes to see what I had enough of to do this number, I opted for secondary colors – orange, emerald green, and grape. It took 6 liters of prepared dyes, and the biggest tub I've ever dyed in to do this. When I first started the rinse, it had much more of a tinge of camouflage to it than it does after finally being washed, which concerned me, as R & M do not remind of dull subtle people who would want a camo couch… Now it is *much* brighter and more to my liking.
See for yourself – many thanks to R & M for sharing the action shots of the couch with me!
I think this just proves that I will try dying anything at least once – what will be next? Bring it on!

A subject that shows no sign of abating is that of Global Warming. Every day some doomsayer tells us that the world is going to end unless we start driving around in cars powered by chicken poo.
It's a subject that everyone is an expert on and we all have an opinion. Personally I think it's all tripe. I cannot deny global warming is happening (although I'm sure it's colder than it used to be) but can we really blame mankind? I mean we've only been monitoring climate change for a relatively short period of time and there his evidence of huge climate shift that took place millennia ago so what's to say it isn't part of some natural planetary cycle? The polar ice caps are still melting and have probably been doing so since the last ice age. Once they have completely melted, the result will no doubt be a temperate imbalance that pushes us back into another one.
The percentages of Co2 emissions we produce are tiny and it is a little known fact that cow flatulence produces more methane than automobiles so there is definitely a flaw in these eco-warriors' argument somewhere.
Anyway, that is just my opinion. What do you think? If you have an opinion, get on your soapbox and vote!

crunch time
If we get the gas connected today Monday we will have our first test dinner will be served tonight. It will be so much more pleasurable if the electrician also shows up to grant us light by then. Though we have made amazing progress in a short amount of time we are worried about the slow progress on the bar counter construction. Whatever little has been done might have to be redone. The assembly of the wood pieces on the bar face appears sloppy. This needs to be completed in order to assemble the rest of the bar with refrigerators, blenders, sink and the rest. Meltdown. I hope they pull it together by Wednesday at the latest. This will be a excruciating week.

Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong yesterday hosted Brunei's Crown Prince Al-Muhtadee Billah to lunch at the Istana, on the second day of his six-day official visit to Singapore. The Crown Prince, who is also Senior Minister in the Prime Minister's Office, is in town for the fourth Singapore-Brunei Young Leaders' Programme.
The programme was launched in 2013 to strengthen close ties between young leaders from both countries. This week, the Crown Prince will also be visiting Singapore's defence facilities, including the Singapore Armed Forces' Armour Simulation Centre, as well as Coney Island.
PM Lee wrote in a Facebook post yesterday: "Brunei has been a special friend of Singapore, since the time of Mr Lee Kuan Yew and the Seri Begawan (Crown Prince Billah's grandfather).
"Our bilateral cooperation encompasses many areas - trade, foreign affairs, defence, finance, culture and education. I look forward to doing more with Brunei."

The staff tends to cuticles during the two-hour Shellac manicure and spa pedicure. Watch finger-'dos get trimmed from a high beehive to a more manageable pompadour before application of Shellac polish, which protects against chipping from excessive piano playing or from doing jazz hands during hailstorms. During the spa pedicure, a specialist cuts and files the toenails, removes the cuticles, and scrubs them to a high sheen before treating the entire foot to a 20-minute massage. Looks Unlimited Salon & Day Spa is open for business seven days a week, including evenings.

DOL makes $1M in grant funding available to study paid leave
Posted May 11, 2016
The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) announced $1 million will be available to research and analyze how paid-leave programs can be developed and implemented across the country.
A number of state and local governments have adopted or are now considering paid-leave legislation. This grant program will enable similar actions in other jurisdictions. The agency's funding opportunity announcement outlines the grant priorities, evaluation factors, and application guidance for up to six competitive grants.
The department's Women's Bureau will administer the funding opportunity. This is the third year of funding, building upon the 2014 and 2015 grant programs, through which the bureau awarded over $2 million to support paid-leave studies.
"Today, women make up nearly half of the labor force and are increasingly the primary and co-breadwinners of their families," said Latifa Lyles, director of the Women's Bureau. "More than 30 million of America's working families have young children. Every year, roughly 40 million Americans provide unpaid care for elderly relatives and loved ones. These grants build on the work that many states are doing to implement 21st century workplace policies that meet the needs of working women and families."
The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) guarantees unpaid, job-protected leave for workers to care for their newborn or newly adopted children, their family members with serious health conditions, and their own serious health conditions. According to the DOL, many workers — especially low-wage workers — cannot afford to take unpaid time off.
The agency says paid family and medical-leave programs can help workers with caregiving responsibilities and serious health needs remain in the workforce.
J. J. Keller's Employment Law Today newsletter explains why you need to care, what you need to do and how your business could be affected by HR industry news.

Unspeakable Crimes Horrifying High Profile Cases In Which Cops Were Accused Of Framing Suspects
They're supposed to protect and serve, but sometimes law enforcement officers cross the line and carry out injustice. While it's not exactly common, there are plenty of cases where cops framed innocent people to "solve" a case and make themselves look good. Whether its because of a clash of personalities, a score to settle, or because they want to cover up their own wrong doings, these criminal cops ignored their oath to uphold the law.
For people who were framed by cops, their lives will never be the same. From people framed for murder to entrapping otherwise innocent people, these cases where the cops framed someone show the law isn't always blind. Whether by making up false accusations or extracting false confessions these police frame-ups, it seems no department or agency is too big or too small to employ bad cops.
Steven Avery Believed He Was Framed
Perhaps no case has had more twists and turns than that of Steven Avery. The Wisconsin man was found guilty and convicted of sexual assault in 1985. In 2003, his conviction was vacated after DNA evidence proved he was not the suspect involved. He sought a $36 million lawsuit against his local sheriff's office, and a few months later was charged with murder.
Avery's case gained national attention in 2015 when the Netflix documentary Making a Murderer became one of the streaming service's most popular titles. Avery was found guilty in 2007 of killing 25-year-old photographer Teresa Halbach, but new evidence sheds doubt on whether that really was the case, and has some asking whether evidence was planted by vindictive sheriff's deputies.
Avery's lawyer, Kathleen Zellner, said some of the evidence found on Avery's property - including Halbach's car - was planted there. As well as the blood found inside of it. She claimed Avery's blood could have come from a sample that police had from his prior false conviction. Zellner further contends the eyewitness accounts that led to his imprisonment were false, and that Halbach's ex-boyfriend Ryan Hillegas is the real killer.
A Chicago Cop Planted Evidence, Leading To A $2 Million Settlement
Sgt. Ronald Watts of the Chicago Police Department was doing more than making arrests and stopping crime: he was a criminal himself, who framed those who wouldn't play by his rules. He would plant evidence to trump up charges, before allowing suspects to pay their way out of a trip to jail. He also took drug money from drug dealers without submitting it as evidence, and threatened to arrest the dealers if they ratted on him.
Watts was arrested in 2012 and sent to prison for planting evidence on residents of Chicago public housing units, where he was a police officer. Two other officers, Shannon Spalding and Daniel Echeverria, worked with the FBI to provide the evidence to put Watts and another officer in jail.
Rather than being rewarded for their fine police work putting a member of the force behind bars who betrayed the public trust, their fellow officers intimidated the two whistleblowers. They were denied promotions and given unfavorable assignments in retribution. In 2016, Spalding and Echeverria won a $2 million suit against Watts and the department.
New Jersey Cops Performed Illegal Search And Seizures On 171 Innocent People
Camden, NJ, police officer Kevin Parry went above and beyond the call of duty in order to protect and serve. And in doing so he actually committed crimes himself. His actions included illegally searching people's homes, creating false reports, stealing cash, falsifying testimony, and planting evidence. Rather than just focusing his efforts on one or two cases, he victimized 171 innocent people.
A 2010 FBI investigation uncovered his activities, and also discovered three other police officers conspired with him to engage in illegal search and seizures. They were all sentenced to prison.
Three Men Were Framed For A Murder They Didn't Commit - Because Cops Didn't Want To Collect Evidence
Stephen Miller, Yusef Abdullahi and Anthony Paris were framed for the murder of sex worker Lynette White on Valentine's Day of 1988. Five men were initially charged for the crime, but two of them were cleared while the others were sentenced to life in prison. Miller, who was White's boyfriend, filed an appeal on his case and in 2000, DNA from the crime scene was tested using enhanced forensic technologies. In 2002, the men were exonerated when their DNA was not a match to the alleged suspect - Jeffrey Gafoor.
A closer examination of the case revealed the police were unable to find a suspect in the case, and rather than doing their jobs to find evidence, chase down leads, and arrest the killer, officers fabricated evidence. Ultimately 12 police officers were implicated on charges of pressuring witnesses to testify against the five suspects.

I've been writing for a long time. It started with role-playing with friends over instant messenger, morphed into fan-fiction, mostly Harry Potter fan-fiction (I am not embarrassed to say; my fan-fiction was often highly commended) and resulted in perhaps a dozen short stories, a poem or two, and half a dozen novels in progress.
Of these, I have tried to spread the writing around- a single science fiction novel, a thriller, a fantasy novel, a drama, and one that can best be defined as essentially vampire teen angst-lit.
The novel that is the furthest along is the science fiction novel. I laid down the idea about a year ago, but I only actually started writing in earnest about eight months ago and took a two month hiatus during December and January; today, I have approximately 45,000 words or so laid down, and the stringent story-planning and outlining has been set down for, I imagine, close to 40,000 more, and, when on my stride, I can write between 2000 and 3000 words an hour, although I rarely sustain this for more than two or three hours at a sitting, as the effort is exhausting and it tends to come apart at the seams- the tone fluctuates and the consistency fades.
One of the most difficult problems I run into while writing is consistency; this is especially true in a science-fiction context. I spend an inordinate amount of time making sure that sizes, ranges, weights, masses, and various other figures given do not conflict with each other and fall inside the realm of possibility or even probability. I similarly attempt to ensure a consistency of context- if a piece of technology does A once, it should continue to do A, and nothing but A, unless a good reason exists for this ability not being shown or referred to previously- especially if it would have been helpful before.
However, this can be crippling at times. For example, the Pride of Albion, a vessel in the novel, is approximately 1100 meters long by 360 meters across the beam and 360 meters in 'height'. What is an acceptable mass for this vessel? First of all, one would have to determine the volume- no small task when the object doesn't exist in the real world or as an accurate 3-D model. Then, one has to determine the density of components that don't exist. It is in some cases possible to base a density off of real-world ships, but various in-universe explanations (like wide-empty spaces) must also be taken into account. The amount of work involved in ensuring that the mass of the vessel, a figure that may only be used once or twice in the book is consistent not only with itself but with the wider universe as portrayed is perhaps an hour, or two- or even more, depending on whether or not one accepts a very rough approximation for volume or attempts to model the figure precisely.
The second leading problem is tone. I often find that it is a struggle to ensure the tone is consistent throughout a work (unless I write it in one sitting, which is possible for shorter works but not for entire novels). Rather, my writing will have a specific tone on one occasion and a slightly different tone on another, depending on my mood; and more importantly and disconcertingly, if I am attempting to force myself to write (generally by giving myself a quota of 1500 words per hour) the tone often tends toward the flat and uninspired, with lots of description but no flair. Attempting to ensure that I am in the same frame of mind that the tone of the story requires is sometimes difficult.
This is specifically important because different novels have, as a rule, different tones. A fantasy novel is told, in my writing, in a different way than a science fiction novel, in much the same way as an academic journal article is written differently from a letter to a friend or colleague.
This is specifically a difficulty, I find, of trying to tell a story over many different sessions; it's not an issue I tend to have with official works, because they have a consistent tone that should be adhered to.
Despite the fact that classes are coming to a crux at the moment, when classes end at the beginning of April I hope to dive back into writing with a vengeance. It's an excellent creative outlet, and the best way to get better is just to do it.

There are comedians and then they 'are' comedians, the late great Tommy Cooper is in many people's eyes one of the best British comics ever, a testament to his versatility in both clumsiness and his incredible talent to make people laugh.
Daniel Taylor (who plays Tommy Cooper) brought to the Royal Hippodrome Theatre, Eastbourne, on Saturday July 25 the humour the fun and the magic tricks that we have all come to enjoy and love over the years.
With little more than a gate and a barrel of hats including the customary table of props on the stage, Daniel Taylor (as Tommy) along with fellow actors Sharon Byatt (who played Tommy's long suffering wife Gwen) and Warrick Evans who played Tommy's agent Miff Ferrie played out Tommy Cooper's life from how he got his early break in theatre through to television.
This was a show not just dedicated to Tommy Cooper's magic routine and gags, it also brought to the stage the troubled times which played a big part in Tommy Cooper's life, his infidelity and partly his alcoholism. This was a roller coaster ride of hilarious one liner gags which admittedly many hardened Tommy Cooper fans knew off by heart.
Daniel Taylor had Cooper off to a T, his gestures, his movements were all spot on that daft grin and that daft laugh, all had the audience in stitches.
I loved the sketches "glass, bottle, bottle, glass", "spoon, jar" and his box of hat tricks simply wonderful.
Comedians come and go but comedians like Tommy Cooper will always stand the test of time. There was something magical about Tommy's performances and Daniel Taylor's recreation in Eastbourne was simply outstanding. The audience lapped up their two hours of slapstick and I'm sure Daniel could have gone on for longer. One of the biggest seals of approval has come from Tommy Cooper's estate including his daughter Victoria who have given Daniel their full approval for this show. I caught up with Daniel after the show and he stated that it was great to play Eastbourne, more so with Tommy Cooper's association with the town and he very much hopes to come back.

Quote:It's an interesting detail within the narrative of The Brave and the Bold #175 that Lois Lane believes that Bruce Wayne would be an appropriate man to approach to contact the Batman.
Now back in the days in which these tales were told it was a common shared notion that the secret identity of the hero was often seen, or thought, to have a possible means to contacting the titular hero - that reporter and broadcaster Clark Kent could be able to contact Superman if needs be, that photographer Peter Parker might have a means of contacting his chief subject Spider-Man, or that Barry Allen had a contactpoint for The Flash. All well and good, all of these men are connected to media or law enforcment and therefore might be thought to come into a contact with said heroes. But... Bruce Wayne? Contact the secretive and highly enigmatic Batman?
Quote:Was there some established rationale back in the era this story was set to act as a reasonable precedent as to why and how others might think Millionaire Playboy Bruce Wayne might have such a way, or interest, in being able to contact Batman for help like this? Or is this one example here in the Brave and Bold merely a plot convenience...?
Because Bruce is rich. I imagine it's very easy for billionaires to find the people they want to find.

More Spring '09 love
I've been following Doo.Ri ever since Wanz debuted a lovely mint dress at one of her private sales (Incidentally, I do miss those sales!). I just love her easy breezy style and use of silks and soothing colours.
Vivienne Westwood
It may not look like it, but I think Vivienne Westwood's clothes are actually quite wearable. You just have to look at each piece individually.
Patrick Robinson has designed a great basics collection. It looks quite European actually. I do love that white dress.
Marc by Marc Jacobs
Marc Jacobs is sometimes a hit and miss with me, but I mostly tend to like his younger (and cheaper) label for its youthful vibe, great colours and cute dresses. Also, am starting to think fanny packs are a great idea for going out.
All pictures from style.com.

mmm... marc jacobs does have nice selection this time. i prefer Eley Kishimoto's better though.
ha, if only the prices of these pretty clothes are more affordable. i mean, the clothes we were gets out of style rather quickly, so i usually don't spend too much. =P

Kierra: I'm with you on the clothes being more affordable, but I guess if more clothes were cheaper, I wouldn't have enough room to store all my buys!
Mooms: I still wear and love all the stuff I've bought at your sales. If ever you decide to do them again, I'll be the first at the door :)

I remember that uncertain feeling, though. Just take it one day at a time!
Oh, I definitely see it!
I also definitely agree with not telling everyone until you are sure there won't be another loss (and I really hope there won't be).
I have been trying to imagine getting another BFP, and I keep thinking I'll react with alternating joy and dread (i.e., is this baby #1 or m/c #2). IT is such a scary time!
I really hope this means baby for you!!!
Congratulations!! Got your site from Babes in Blogland and just wanted to say hi!

Linslade Woods has been given the highest award under the Anglia in Bloom – It's Your Neighbourhood Scheme.
The site received was judged Level 5 Outstanding to the delight of the Friends of Linslade Woods (FoLW).
Ken Barry, from FoLW, said: "We are obviously very pleased at receiving this award as it is an indication that all the hard work carried out by volunteers throughout the year has paid off.
"This award recognises and highlights that people in Linslade are benefitting from a green space of the very highest quality. Well managed green spaces, as well as being good for wildlife, are vital to the health and wellbeing of the local community".
In addition to their regular programme of coppicing and woodland management the volunteers have also recently constructed a number of new bench seats in the woods with funding provided by Waitrose.
The benches have been installed at special scenic areas where people can relax, appreciate and enjoy the natural beauty of the Woods and the wildlife.
The Friends of Linslade Woods, working in partnership with the Greensand Trust and Central Bedfordshire Council, have a regular programme of action days, wildlife walks and other events throughout the year.
New volunteers are very welcome to take part in their activities and further information can be obtained from Ken Barry on 01525 372036.

Pauline from Germany spent 4 weeks in the Sea Turtle and Environmental Conservation program in Zanzibar. In our blog she describes her experience.
My 4 weeks in Zanzibar have passed way too fast (book for a longer duration!!!), are among the best times in my life. Not only did I get to know lots of wonderful people among the other volunteers; also the aquarium staff is amazingly friendly and I felt welcome from my first day. If I needed assistance, I was always welcome to contact them and everybody was trying their best to help me. Except for my initial day, I did not feel homesick at all during the entire stay.
Working with the turtles was a lot of fun. Besides the daily tasks such as changing the water in the pools, there are other duties and tasks which vary on a weekly basis. The working atmosphere is quite relaxed and work never gets boring.
In the afternoons there are voluntary environmental conservation activities. Given the enormous waste problem on the island, plastic waste is recycled and in parts reused to build furniture or decoration objects.
You will also have enough free time to go on excursions. My personal highlight was a snorkeling trip to Mnemba Island, where we even saw dolphins next to our boat. Other trips I made were a spice tour (which is much more interesting than you would imagine) or a weekend on the east coast where you can go kite surfing. But you can also just spend the entire day in the project or on the beach.
I would definitely do this trip again, because of the amazing people I have met and the experience of living in a different culture.
Best wishes,
You can find further details about the Marine Turtle and Environmental Conservation Program on this link.

Parents are Baby's First Teacher (Chapter 2 - key messages on-screen)
Birth is an enormous transition for your baby. During their time in the womb, all of baby's needs are met, without asking. Once babies are born, they must communicate and express their needs in order to have them met by their caregivers. This video is the second chapter of a series called "Born to Communicate". What can you do to prepare your child for language development? (Key messages appear on-screen)


text: Hi all, My sister got tickets for a fundrasier for one of our local candidate for Senate and guess who was the guest speaker???? That's right, Hillary Clinton!! She spoke and then went around to shake everyone's hand and I pushed my little self right up to the front and shook her hand!!! It was awesome. I am not very political, I just really respect her for the education she has had, the work that she's done, and for being the kind of woman that can come back from the humiliation that she suffered and get right back on the "horse of America" (so to speak). Every woman should aspire to be like that! Strong, smart, and guts!!! It was a very exciting night!!
