GPM Rain EnGAUGECelebrate the launch of the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) Mission by hosting a GPM Rain EnGAUGE Event – a family science night at your school, outdoor education center, library or museum. See link for a full electronic toolkit, including activities menu, planning schedules, a sample advertising flier, and more.
GPM-GLOBE Student Field CampaignWebsite with information about the GPM-GLOBE Student Field Campaign, in which students collect precipitation data using a simple rain gauge.
SMAP Field CampaignInformation about how to participate in collecting soil moisture data with the SMAP mission.
Engineer a SatelliteIn this activity, learners select the scientific instruments for their satellite, calculate the power requirements for all the subsystems, and construct a scale model of their very own Earth observing satellite using building blocks and/or Legos. Includes instructions and worksheets. - See more at: http://nasawavelength.org/resource/nw-000-000-002-814/#sthash.280xTGBk.dpufAAAS Benchmarks: 3A/M2
Building for Hurricanes: Engineering Design ChallengeThis activity is a short engineering design challenge to be completed by individual students or small teams. A real-world problem is presented, designing buildings for hurricane-prone areas, but in a simulated way that works in a classroom, after school club, or informal education setting. Students are given simple materials and design requirements, and must plan and build a tower as tall as possible that will hold up a tennis ball while resisting the force of wind from a fan. After the towers are built, the group comes together to test them. If there is time after testing, which can be observational or framed as a contest between teams, students can redesign their towers to improve their performance, or simply discuss what worked well and what didn't in their designs.
Rain Gauge ActivityIn this activity, students face an engineering challenge based on real-world applications. They are tasked with developing a tool they can use to measure the amount of rain that falls each day. Students will find out why freshwater is important, learn about the water cycle, and the need to have a standard form of calibration for measurement tools. They will learn that keeping track of precipitation is important, and learn a little bit about how NASA's GPM satellite measures precipitation from space. This lesson uses the 5-E instructional model.
Erosion and LandslidesStudents will be introduced to the causes, locations, and hazards of landslides, as well as the role of satellite observations in predicting and studying them. To begin, students investigate the amount of precipitation sufficient to cause a landslide in two different mediums (soil and sand), then use their findings in follow-up activities.
GPM Core Observatory Paper ModelThis activity allows participants to build a paper model of the GPM Core Observatory and learn about the technology the satellite uses to measure precipitation from space. Directions explain how to cut, fold and glue the individual pieces together to make the model. The accompanying information sheet has details about the systems in the satellite including the Dual-frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR), the GPM Microwave Imager (GMI), the High Gain Antenna, avionics and star trackers, propulsion system and solar array, as well as a math connection and additional engineering challenges.
LEGO Model of Kepler Planet-finding MethodThis model aims to help illustrate the purpose and methodology of NASA's Kepler mission. It includes (1) a hand-cranked or motorized orrery (moving model of a planet system) made of LEGO parts, (2) a light sensor representing the Kepler photometer, (3) computer software for graphing light curves, representing Kepler Science Office - data analysis. A light bulb at the center of the orrery represents a star, and as planets in the model pass between the star and the light sensor, dips in the computer graph light curve happen in real time.
GPM Core Observatory LEGO ModelStep by step instructions and a parts list to build your own LEGO model of the GPM Core Observatory.
The Adventure of Echo the BatThis interactive adventure uses a Landsat mosaic of Arizona as the interface. Students need to interpret satellite imagery to receive clues to Echo the Bat's location. As students find Echo, additional content about remote sensing and biodiversity is introduced.
Magnetospheric Multiscale Education & OutreachBring the wonder of the MMS mission to your classroom with our growing list of lesson plans, activities and 'How To' guides. You will be well prepared to explore the worlds of magnetism, spacecraft design and 3D printing!

I did a preview card for this show last week (which you should check out instead of this card if you haven't watched it!!), and have decided to continue it for a while!!!
SPOILERS FOR EP 2 of MAYOIGA!
I just watched episode 2, and I'm still really digging this show!
It's OP/ED (musically, not as much visually, though I have a hope they'll change up the intro visuals as time goes on) are really great in my opinion, too!
The show does have some really cringe-worthy moments, but it makes up for it in interesting ones so I'm going to keep loving it for a while.
I'm totally intrigued about quittteee a few things....
- who was knocking on the window for the bus driver? is that really the bus driver?
- why Speedstar protects Mitsumune so much (more than just that flashback)
- what the hell is watching from the bushes / made those foot prints???
- are all these gory theories really foreshadowing actual gore?
- how long will it take for dissent to really happen?
- how long will it take for the first death?
So far my fave characters are Lion & Speedstar & Lovepon
I think I'm more than a little bit in love with Speedstar. But I have a secret theory (that I will now share) that maybe he doesn't actually exist?? But he probably does lol. I don't know why, I just can't imagine him making it onto the tour being so doubtful....and he only really talks to Mitsumune....
Anyways, Piita & Manbe drive me crazy. Lion is just great - really intelligent and interesting. Lovepon just cracks me up & I want to know more about A) why she's there and B) why she's obsessed with execution.
Mitsumune reallllyyyy.....
...really freaks me out....I don't know what it is about him but he freaks me out. I still like him....but yeah. Freaks me out. He was so rude on accident to Maimai, but something about him like...he seems totally fine and I start to like him and then he does something that just makes me go "what" and start to wonder if I should trust him at all. Idk. Something's odd there!
So....who else is watching this?
I wanna put together a tag list to discuss the show as it goes so if you are watching it & want to be tagged please let me know!!! :D

The tragic story of John Harris, know as the "English Hermit", has emerged from the realm of myth after investigation by archaeologists.
Excavation of the Cheshire cave that the recluse is supposed to have retreated into has revealed evidence that someone was indeed living there in the mid 18th century.
This ties in with the legend of the English Hermit who, in a popular pamphlet published in 1809, is said to have turned his back on humanity after his parents forbade him to marry his childhood sweetheart, Ann Egerton.
Anthony Sinclair, a lecturer at the University of Liverpool, and Keith Matthews, of Chester Archaeology, record their investigation of the Carden Park estate rock shelter in the first issue of Cave Archaeology and Palaeontology Research Archive.
Pottery fragments allowed the team to date its last habitation to the 1760s. They found signs that the cave had been reshaped by its inhabitant, who also built a platform at its entrance that probably supported a substantial frontage.
According to the legend, Harris sought refuge in an isolated cave after vowing to have as little conversation as possible with mankind.
He is reported to have started out at Carden and then later moved to another cave where, at the age of 99, he was chanced upon in 1809 by men collecting firewood for a Guy Fawkes Night bonfire.
The story tells of a romantic figure, "a wild, hairy man . . . the frightfulest figure they had ever seen" yet also one who was pious and holy.
However, the researchers believe these literary elements may hide a clash between two 18th-century gentlemen who were seeking to do each other down. Their work suggests that the inhabitant of the Carden
cave was probably turfed out by the landowner William Leche during the building of a pleasure garden.
Many years later, at the height of a dispute with his neighbour John Tarlton, the "English Hermit" pamphlet appeared, alleging that the wild recluse who had been so cruelly treated by Mr Leche had found succour with his rival.
Dr Sinclair believes Mr Tarlton was behind the pamphlet and had invented a new end to the story of the English Hermit that portrayed Mr Leche in a very bad light.
"It effectively says Leche is a sharp dealer while Tarlton is a generous man prepared to take this man in," he said. The actual fate of the real cave dweller, who lost his home to a garden, is unknown.

My adorable kids
Picture taken in December 2005, Toronto
This is one of my favorite pictures of my kids... I just love it when they are sweet and loving to one another.
My son actually doesn't want me to share this picture with anyone... he claims "its embarrasing." To me, it was a sweet gesture and I love to share it!
I'm planning to delete my scrapping blog since I don't really have the time to scrap anymore... so I just thought I'd re-post some of my favorite scraps here.
Thursday Thirteen #60: Famous Quotes
Just thought I'd share some quotes for this week's T13...
- "The strongest principle of growth lies in human choice." ~ by George Eliot
- "That some achieve great success, is proof to all that others can achieve it as well." ~ by Abraham Lincoln
- "The trouble with not having a goal is that you can spend your life running up and down the field and never score." ~ by Bill Copeland
- "I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead; I lift my eyes and all is born again." ~ by Sylvia Plath
- "Power is of two kinds. One is obtained by the fear of punishment and the other by acts of love. Power based on love is a thousand times more effective
and permanent then the one derived from fear of punishment." ~ by Mahatma Gandhi
- "The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt." ~ by Bertrand Russell
- "Unthinking respect for authority is the greatest enemy of truth." ~ by Albert Einstein
- "The only devils in this world are those running around in our own hearts, and that is where all our battles should be fought." ~ by Mahatma Gandhi
- "Life is short, break the rules, forgive sooner, love with true love, laugh without control and always keep smiling. Maybe life is not the party that we were expecting, but in the mean time, we're here and we can still dance....."
- "Love is the master key that opens the gates of happiness." by Oliver Wendell Holmes
- "Love is a fruit in season at all times, and within the reach of every hand." by Mother Teresa
- "Son, when you add it up, the cost of my love is: No Charge." A quote from A Mothers Love
- "There is no difficulty that enough love will not conquer." by Emmet Fox
Wordless and Watery Wednesday: Beach and Sand
Photography class
Whew! My basic photography class is almost over. This Wednesday will be the exam day and that's it. This basic class is a prerequisite for all the other photography classes that I wanted to enroll. The class is definitely very informative with too much information to digest. I still get confused sometimes, but I'm learning how to shoot in manual mode.
My next class will be about "Scenic and Wildlife" photography [Nov to Dec]. After that I will be taking up "Intermediate Photography" and "Wedding Photography" in January. Each class is 6 weeks long.
To get a certificate on photography, I have to take at least 8 courses. Still have a long way to go...
* Picture taken by my friend L @ Spray Lake.
Isn't it Ironic?
"We ignore those who adores us... adore those who ignore us...
Love those who hurt us... and hurt those who love us!"
Human nature? Ironic indeed!

Wordless Wednesday: 50th birthday cake
I went to a party a couple of months ago, and this cake was made by the wife to the husband who was celebrating his 50th birthday.
Everything you see in the cake, except for the candles, are edible! Isn't it cool? And it taste really good too!
3-tiered Diaper Cake
Today, we decided to throw a surprised baby shower to a friend of ours. It's her 3rd baby, but ever since I saw this diaper cake in several blogs, my hands has been itching to make one. So I decided to make one for her, hence the baby shower.
First, gather up all the materials that you will need -- at least 70 pieces of medium diapers, ribbons, baby bottles, toys, spoons, bibs, mittens and socks... and whatever you may think of...
Then, start rolling up the diapers... this part takes time...
Start decorating...
Move things around...
And here's the final outcome. I was able to convince my friend to show her tummy while we were at the park 2 weeks ago, and I'm sure she will treasure this picture which I decided to add to her diaper cake.

Bulwell MP Graham Allen is calling for 'zero hour contracts' to be scrapped after a rise in the use of the controversial employment agreements.
New figures from the Office of National Statistics (ONS) show the number of people on the contracts has increased to 1.8 million, with an estimated 48,000 of those people living in the East Midlands.
The Labour MP for Nottingham North says people on zero hour contracts earn on average £300 less a week than those on full time contracts and that many employees won't be entitled to protections such as redundancy and sick pay.
Mr Allen said: "Zero hours contracts must be stopped, people need the security of a proper job, not the uncertainty of whether they have work each day.
"Zero hours contracts have spiralled out of control under the Con-Dem Government. More and more working people are being exploited by a lack of regular hours and the fear of redundancy. This makes them a huge problem for people who just want to get on."
"It's not fair for people who go to work, only to be told they're not needed and are sent home. Especially when they have already paid for childcare and transport and they will not be bringing in any money to cover it."
"Labour has promised to scrap zero hours contracts so people can get regular hours and they are not exploited by big business or recruitment agencies."
The Office of National Statistics figures, from October to December 2014, show an increase of 111,000 since October to December 2013.
The TUC's research shows that people on zero hours contracts earn £300 per week less than people on permanent contracts.

*One in four Americans said they couldn't think of a single positive societal contribution made by Christians in recent years, according to a nationwide survey released Monday.
Also, one in 10 adults said they couldn't think of a recent positive contribution because Christians hadn't made one, the Barna Group reported.
On the positive side, almost one in five mentioned how U.S. Christians help poor and underprivileged people. Those under the age of 25 were most likely to reference such service.
Among other findings, researchers noted that Evangelical Christians over age 25 and those who said they are "mostly conservative" on socio- political matters were least likely to list serving the poor as an important contribution.
"Young Christians are avoiding alignment with politics and power and getting back to basics: love and service," said Gabe Lyons, author of "The Next Christians: The Good News About the End of Christian America."
Barna researchers asked two open-ended questions: What were Christians' recent positive contributions and what were the negative ones?
"Overall," researchers noted, "there was a more extensive and diverse list of complaints about Christians and their churches than there was of examples of the benefits they have provided to society."
At the top of the negatives list: One in five Americans, or 20 percent, said Christians have incited violence or hatred in the name of Jesus Christ. Of the non-Christians surveyed, 35 percent gave this response.

These eggs consist of cookie dough on the inside, and a chocolate shell on the outside.
Step 1:
The recipe is halved from this recipe.
I used
1 half a stick of unsalted butter
3/8 cup of brown sugar
1/4 cup of milk
1/4 tsp of vanilla extract
1/2 tsp of salt
1 1/4 cup of flour
Step 2:
Mix the soft butter and brown sugar. Then mix in the rest of the ingredients.
Step 3:
After microwaving it to soften it, you mix yellow food coloring into about 1/3 of the dough and roll the dough out.
Step 4:
To make the egg, you first roll a ball out of the yellow dough and wrap it in the white dough. Then you put in the refrigerator to harden for about 20 minutes.
Step 5:
While the eggs are in the refrigerator, melt some chocolate in the microwave. After 20 minutes dip the eggs into the chocolate, and stick them back into the refrigerator.
Step 6:
First take a piece of tinfoil and cut a 3 to 4in square. If you want, draw a face on it. You then cut a 10 in piece of string for later. Wrap the egg in foil and then tie a bow on the top for bunny ears.

St Andrews United head into arguably their biggest game of the season this weekend when they host Armadale Thistle.
When the club dropped down from the Super League at the end of last season, the ambition was to leap straight back up.
But the campaign hasn't gone to plan, and United are now facing a battle to retain their East Premier League status.
Things looked promising at the start of the new season as the side racked up win after win in August.
Remarkably, that summer month was to be the last time the side won a match in 2016.
It's left United fourth from bottom on 16 points and having played 18 games.
The three clubs below have all played less, including visitors at the weekend Armadale, who are one place and four points behind Saints but having played two games less.
It makes the meeting between the two this weekend absolutely crucial - the proverbial six-pointer.
Win, and United will have a bit of breathing space.
Lose, and all of a sudden they are in real danger of being dragged in.
Those who have watched United since Craig Morrison took the helm know performances aren't bad and three points on Saturday may just be the springboard needed to kick start the campaign.
The club has announced that Sam Buchan has departed for Dundonald.

Woman to be first charged under PH cybercrime law
MANILA, Philippines – A woman has been indicted for computer fraud in the first such case under the Philippines' controversial cybercrime law, justice department records showed Sunday, June 15.
Karla Martinez Ignacio could face up to 6 years in jail if found guilty of transferring thousands of dollars to her bank account using fraudulent computer data. (READ: Fighting cybercrime difficult in PH – NBI)
She was indicted by a prosecutor in Las Piñas City and is set to be charged under the Philippines' Cybercrime Prevention Act.
The law is designed to stamp out online scourges like fraud, identity theft and child pornography, but critics say it could be used to stifle dissent as it imposes heavy prison terms for online libel.
Facebook and Twitter have become popular ways of organiing major political street protests in the Philippines.
The law was passed in 2012 but its implementation was suspended after coming under challenge from various groups.
The Supreme Court ruled in February that the law was not unconstitutional, paving the way for its implementation.
But the court ruled against a provision giving authorities sweeping powers to shut down websites or record Internet traffic data in real time. – Rappler.com

CHARLESTON, SC (WCSC/AP) - Officials with Charleston International Airport say there are a number of canceled flights and delays due to the snow storm in New England.
Airport officials say JetBlue has had to delay flights to Boston and JFK. US Airways canceled flights to Philadelphia and Charlotte and United Express has canceled two flights to Newark.
Officials ask that you check with your specific airline for details for affected flights.
The cancellations come as New England continues to deal with problems from a winter storm as thousands of homes and businesses are without power.
Flooding from the storm that has dumped more than a foot of snow on parts of New England has closed some coastal roads near Boston. And according to a newspaper, an unoccupied home on an island north of the city fell into the ocean.
The slow-moving storm is centered far out in the Atlantic. But the snow from the storm has made for a slippery commute today as far south as New York and Pennsylvania. For a second day, snow and accidents made the morning commute difficult in Connecticut.
Some parts of Massachusetts had more than a foot of snow by midmorning, with more expected.

Travelers can always prepare for the worst by investing in visitor medical insurance or trip cancellation reimbursement programs, but sometimes, individuals will simply get ill on the road. Insurance is very useful for severe cases, or when travelers need to go to a medical facility, but in many cases, tourists simply are run down by the journey. Some people may become fatigued by long flights or road trips, while others could catch a bug or cold during their vacation. Either way, it is ideal to prepare ahead of time for mishaps and know how to best avoid getting sick before embarking on a getaway.
Before the trip begins, there are many things a traveler can do to get ready and stay healthy for the journey. One of the first steps can be packing a carry-on with all the essential first-aid items needed to combat small injuries and illness. If individuals take vitamins or prescription medications daily, packing those up front is advisable, so medication can be easily reached and not disrupt the routine. Other things to have readily available include over the counter medications for common colds and indigestion, hand sanitizer and portable water purification systems, depending on what kind of trip travelers are taking. Having some ibuprofen or allergy pills close by can also be useful in a pinch.
Once travelers have hit the road, there are certain precautions all can practice to keep illness at bay and help steer clear of emergencies. It is commonly known that one of the easiest ways to become sick is by drinking local water. Although the water supply may not necessarily be contaminated, foreigners may not have developed an immunity to the elements found inside the tap or in ice cubes. Fortunately, there are packets of chemicals and small water container filters that travelers can purchase to minimize the risk of bacteria.
If the final destination will be in the mountains, individuals may want to gradually reach the higher altitudes by slowly journeying to the final height. When someone has spent the majority of his or her time at a certain altitude, sudden movement to a new level can make tourists feel nauseous or weak.
It can be tempting to try to experience a little bit of everything while in a new destination, but sleep is just as important. Even a cat nap on the beach or quick break between sightseeing and dinner can give tourists the energy they need to enjoy their trip. If possible, taking a day off before and/or after the actual getaway can help as well, so individuals can relax in the familiar atmosphere of home before embarking on an adventure.
Seasoned veterans of the road know that staying healthy all the time on vacation is almost impossible, and the occasional mishap is bound to happen. When individuals fall sick in a foreign locale, it is best to handle the situation with plenty of rest and medication. Although travelers may want to try to push through their symptoms, the whole vacation could be lost if the predicament worsens.
When the unexpected happens and travelers need to go to the hospital or call off the trip, having the best travel insurance plan comes in handy. This will ensure tourists can receive good care while abroad or on short weekend getaways, no matter what ails them.

Educators almost universally recognize the importance of play in a child's development. Play, at an early age, is the child's work and the child learns about the world via play. Yet, something sad and tragic often happens once the child enters the four walls of the lower elementary classroom: play is often neglected or just meant for "recess time." Theories around play, though, are quite helpful in providing deeper insights into the importance of play and how it can sustain innovation. One early theorist on play, Johan Huizinga, posited that play is an essential part of cultural development. Huizinga (1995) defined play in this way: "We might call play free activity standing quite consciously outside 'ordinary life' as being not serious, but at the same time play absorbs the player intensely and utterly" (p. 9). The focus here is on the investment in play. Children are intensely engaged in play and so much so that Huizinga (1955) believes that "play proceeds with its own proper boundaries of time and space according to fixed rules and in an orderly manner; play promotes the formation of social groupings" (p. 10).
Two other play theorists, Roger Caillois and Brian Sutton-Smith, build on Huizinga's early work. Caillois makes a distinction between play and games. He believes while games are a part of play; the rules of play are looser or non-existent. However, for Caillois (2001), the structure of games includes the following six formal qualities: "freedom, separateness in time and space, rules, uncertainty about the outcome, non-productiveness, and make believe" (p. 10). According to Caillois, these qualities help to spur on the culture created by play and games.
Brian Sutton-Smith is considered to be the most important and influential scholar of play (Buckingham, 2013; Caillois, 2001). He understands play as a somewhat ambiguous cultural formation. Yet, still it is a cultural form, and as such, play "cannot be neutrally interpreted so it is impossible to keep ambiguity from creeping into the relationship between how play is perceived and how it is experienced" (Sutton-Smith, 2009, p. 216). The point here is that there is something more than just play happening when people are at play, however this is easier to observe than it is to actually define.
Many researchers in the fields of educational technology and information technology have investigated the nuances of play in relationship to learning with technology (Bertozzi & Smith, 2007; Fleer, 2011; Plowman, McPake, & Stephen, 2010; Stevens, Satwicz, & McCarthy, 2008; Taylor, 2009; Verenikina, & Kervin, 2011). Researchers have found correlations between play and creativity (Mishra, Koehler, & Henriksen, 2011; Mishra, 2012); increased interactivity which is spurred on by digital play (Kline, 2003); and greater motivation among children for problem solving when playing games on the computer (Soute, Markopoulos, & Magielse, 2010). This current study picks up on similar themes, but with a deeper investigation as to how computer technology is socially constructed through play.
Creativity: The artful expression of curiosity.
Curiosity: The free expression of interest and intrigue in something.
Play: The freedom of curiosity and movement within a bounded structure.
Technological Play Theory: The movement of curiosity to creativity while using technological tools.
Possibility: The interactive way that people generate ideas about the purposes for a tool.
Educational Technology: Technology that has the primary purpose of being used by students and teachers.
Technology: Tools that people use for a variety of purposes.
Malleability: The ways that people shape and reshape their uses for tools based on their social context and social interactions with other people.

Mohamed Al Mufti – An architect you should know about
Perhaps the most vivid memory i have of Mohamed Al Mufti (We used to call him 'Momo') is the day he finished reading the French version of Ayn Rand's epic "The Fountainhead" (French title: "La Source vive"). It was late night on "The Bronx" A locally famous Studio 14 ("Atelier 14") mezzanine of The ENSA-V. After reading the very last words of the Novel, Momo solenly declared that "Every Architect that respects himself should read that". I did. Not because he said so, it was an old friend of mine who had sent it to me 2 years later as a birthday present. When i read it, (Being still an Architecture student at the time) i understood why Momo liked it so much. Momo was, and still is, a man with a well defined set of values. Quite like Howard Roark.
Momo was a skillful "pre-CGI era" architectural perspective artist. The perspectives he could draft rapidly with a pencil and some crayons could take even the most mediocre of designs and make it look appealing and brilliant. People knew that, and his perspectives would appear on many Diploma projects. His style is so distinguishable that the professors used to approach the panels and say "that's a Momo, Right?" His images were his trademark.
There are many currents and trends in architecture today. But the only viable style is quality. I always felt "Levi's" slogan "Quality never goes out of style" should have been the architecture world motto. I definately think Mohamed Al Mufti's architecture is fullfilng just that premise. Architects and architecture critics tend to "over verbalize" designs. I think this architecture speaks very well for itself.
Mohamed Al Mufti has Offices in Paris and in Damascus. Visit his newly created site to see some more of his work and Art.
8 Responses to "Mohamed Al Mufti – An architect you should know about"
Am Massa, Momo's sister and can tell you with all honesty that i cannot but fully agree with you on everything you have stated in your article about Momo.
One more thing I would like to add, Momo is a refined "humanist", which is so well reflected in the philosophy behind all his work and his attidude towards life in general;
He is a musician, quiet an "erudit" on Gypsy Music, which exemplifies for him one of the most genuine forms of art and being.
Being his sister, I know that he adores children and gets inpiration from their "pure" perspective.
Many thanks for a beautiful articles,
Best Regards,
Massa al-Mufti
Hi, I am Sahban, one of Momo's oldest friends, and also his webmaster…
I also want to confirm all what is sayed about him in this article, and I truly believe that very soon Mohamed al Mufti will be a famous name in the architecture…
All the best.
Sahban Abd Rabbo
Write an original storybook together. ,
Mohammed Al Mufti is teaching now in my university ( the International University for Science & Technology ) in Syria, and he taught me one design course. The only thing I can say that he is a great architect and a great teacher, and I have learned so many things from him. I hope that I can be a good architect like him someday.
Im a student of dr mufti and from the very first day we met him i noticed his great passion for architecture…. just wanted to say that we're lucky that he is teaching us.
They called me Ghali …I m a student of Dr. Mufti, he taught me tow design courses about real design. How to think like an architect, he is a great architect. And all above that he is a great teacher because to be an architect it's great. But to teach it, it's a talent. I hope to learn more from him…next days.
Okay. Momo used to call me "Tarzan"…I don t know why. But it's a nice sketch from him.
على شو شوفة الحال ماني فهمانة…تعلمت منو معنى اللئامة
Everythin mentioned about Momo's professional life is pretty impressive obviously.. but once u get to know him better, his personality, his intelligence, his sense of humor, his sweetness & passion, u'll be even more amazed..
am not quit sure if there's a suitable word to describe what i need to say.. but having Momo in ur life (whether u're a student, a friend, a family member, or a lover), will change it in a way that u would never expect.
i'm so proud of u 🙂

Michael Katsidis is relishing a big return to the UK to take on Kevin Mitchell - because British crowds make him fight like Rocky. The dynamite-fisted Aussie defends his interim WBO World lightweight title against Mitchell on May 15 at West Ham's world famous Boleyn Ground at Upton Park. And Katsidis admits that he'll get a hostile reception in London's east end. But the 29-year-old power puncher isn't fussed after previously coming to the UK to take on Graham Earl in a thriller at Wembley Arena in 2007. That night he was booed to the ring by a 10,000 strong crowd, but left to cheers after being involved in an all-out thriller which saw both men trading leather during five explosive rounds. And he says that although he'll walk into Upton Park a villain, he'll leave a hero. "I wanted this fight in my home state of Queensland, but the next best thing is having it in London," said Katsidis. "My fight against Graham Earl was a very special occasion, but Mitchell will be even better. "Fighting in front of British crowds is something else, I promise you. "My fight against Earl was like Rocky IV when Rocky has to go to Russia to face Ivan Drago. "When the fight starts everyone hates him, but by the end they are on their feet cheering."That's what happened with Graham Earl because in that fight we both took a lot of punishment and showed that we were prepared to go out on our shields. "I've got lots of happy memories of that night because I won my title and that allowed me to go to America and make a name for myself there. "Mitchell will do the same for my profile, and no one will be going home disappointed with the quality of the action. I've got this whole warrior image and it won't be changing it for this fight. "There will be thousands of Aussies in the crowd as well, and when me and Kevin get it on, the atmosphere will be unbelievable."

Danny Williams warns Sam Sexton
Danny Williams today warned British title challenger Sam Sexton that he's got his "mojo" back. Williams will defend his Lonsdale belt against Sexton on May 15 at Upton Park, West Ham, and will look to add the Norwich man's Commonwealth crown. If Williams is successful, he will become the first heavyweight in history to lift the Commonwealth belt three times. And the Brixton Bomber today sounded confident about bowing out on a high, confirming that whatever happens against Sexton, he won't fight again. Before Christmas, when the fight was first announced, Williams raised eyebrows by claiming that he was a shot fighter. But today he sounded far more upbeat. "I've got my mojo back for this one," said the 36-year-old. "I've been taking some new supplements and I've been flying in training. "I feel like a new man and everyone is going to see that on May 15. This fight is going to be my last one and I'm going to give it my all on the night. "I've always wanted to be known as a courageous fighter like my hero Rocky Marciano, and I'll continue in that vein when I fight Sexton." But the challenger, 25, hit back by saying: "I'm glad Williams is saying he is back to his best because I've always wanted to beat the best of Danny. "It will need to be some mojo to beat me, because the way I'm feeling right now there is no way that Danny can beat me. "There will be no fairytale ending for him this time. I'm coming to take his title and send him into retirement by knocking him out." Williams had failed to show at a press conference to officially announce the fight last week, sparking speculation that he might withdraw. But today he explained that he was contemplating whether or not to take a European title shot against Audley Harrison in early April. "I got offered the fight, but I decided not to take it because it was only three weeks notice," he said. "The defeat I suffered against Harrison (a three round TKO back in 2007) really hurt my pride, and I've always wanted revenge. "I took that fight on five days notice, but people don't remember that, only the fact I lost. "I didn't think that three weeks was long enough to prepare for Harrison, and I didn't want the same thing to happen again, so I opted for Sexton instead." 'Hammer Time' is headlined by Kevin Mitchell's challenge for the WBO Interim World Lightweight Championship against Michael Katsidis. A quality packed undercard includes the British and Commonwealth Heavyweight Championship between Danny Williams and Sam Sexton; Olympic Gold medallist James DeGale challenges for the first title in his career - the WBA International Super-Middleweight Championship; unbeaten heavyweight star Derek Chisora; and Britain's hottest young prospects Frankie Gavin and Billy Joe Saunders. Plus more fights to be added.
Froch tuning in for Abraham vs Dirrell
Nottingham's WBC Super middleweight champion Carl 'the cobra' Froch will be tuning into Primetime PPV Sky Channel 480 this Saturday with interest, as a former victim goes head to head with his next scheduled opponent in the Showtime Super Six World Boxing Classic Tournament. "I've got the fight booked and like the rest of the boxing public out there, I'll be intrigued as to how the fight will pan out." said Froch from his Sheffield training base alongside Robert McCracken and the British Olympic team. "We all know what both men bring to the table in this fight. On one hand we have the slippery Dirrell who will look to get his shots off and is supremely quick and naturally talented – and then we have the popular Mr. Abraham in the opposite corner, a compact man with a tight guard and bricks in his gloves." Froch himself knows what it's like to fight Andre Dirrell, having outpointed the American visitor back in November 2009 during the first round of the tournament, which was aired in the UK on Sky channel 480 - and now with Virgin Media added to the platform, Froch vs. Kessler on the 24th April will be available to even more fight fans. Froch won the fight on a split decision; With the Mexican judge giving it to Dirrell by a point, whilst the remaining judges gave it to Froch by two points. "We knew nothing of him really before I fought him, but Dirrell has a lot of natural talent, with good range and athleticism. He is a difficult operator to pin down. Abraham is certainly going to have his work cut out for him." said Froch. The fight was originally to be held in Palm Springs at the beginning of the month, but a back injury to Dirrell saw a postponement and venue relocation to within 60 miles of his hometown. Froch saw this as potentially more pressure for Dirrell which may drive him on. "Fighting at home brings more pressure to perform. I don't think Dirrell has had a high profile local fight so far in his career. Dirrell will reflect on his tactics not working in our fight and will hopefully look to let his hands go more. To let his fists do the talking." The city of Detroit has seen many a legend pass through it's infamous Kronk Gym over the years. With the likes of their first world champion Hilmer Kenty and more famously, Thomas 'Hitman' Hearns. "The fantastic boxing fans of Detroit have had the likes of Hitman Hearns entertaining them over the years. Dirrell will have some big boots to fill and the experience of surviving twelve rounds in a world title fight with me will give him added confidence. He will certainly need that confidence when facing the powerful package that Arthur Abraham brings to the table." said Froch. Froch believes Abraham's chances all boil down to ring generalship to be successful against 'The Matrix'. "Dirrell's got Mayweather-like speed and reflexes. But the difference is, rather than make you miss and punish you; he'd rather make you miss and move. Therefore Abraham needs to take command of the fight and dictate it. Whereas the fighter in me likes to get straight into the thick of the action, Abraham is more patient. Dirrell has declared he is going to let his fists fly this time and he really does need to keep his Super Six dream alive - because he is drinking in last chance saloon now and Abraham is about to turf him out before he finishes his drink." laughed Froch. "It's got the hall marks of potentially being a very great fight, now that Dirrell has no more chances left, with fighting at home and with a serious puncher like Abraham in the corner it could really be explosive. That's the great thing about this match up - nobody can forecast what is going to happen."

Harrison looks for redemption
OLD rivals Audley Harrison and Michael Sprott will fight for the vacant European Heavyweight Championship next month. Ex-Olympic gold medalist Harrison and former British and Commonwealth title holder Sprott will clash for the belt at London's Alexandra Palace on April 9. The pair have fought before in February 2007 and Harrison will be keen for revenge after he was knocked out in the third round. Harrison, 38, who saved his career by winning Prizefighter Heavyweights 3 in October, had been scheduled to meet Poland's Albert Sosnowski for the title. However, Sosnowski will now face WBC Champion Vitali Klitschko in May and is set to vacate the European belt to set up the mouth-watering all-British clash. "When Albert pulled out, I told Matchroom I don't care who accepts the fight as there are no easy fights at this level and I'd be ready for anyone," said Harrison. "To have the opportunity to rectify my loss against Sprott is a blessing that is better than my expectations. "I'm glad I get a chance to correct the mistakes I made in that fight. In 2007, had I beaten Sprott I would've fought for the world title that year.
"Now I've gone full circle and I will show I'm finally ready to fulfil my destiny and fight for and win a world title. "I have nothing or no one to fear in the division and 2010 will be the rise, redemption and glory of Audley A Force Harrison."The bout, which will be the main event of Matchroom sport's next boxing show, gives both fighters one last shot at the big time. Sprott was due to take part in the same Prizefighter tournament as Harrison before he withdrew following the death of his sister. After winning Prizefighter, Harrison donated the trophy to Sprott's family, although there will be no love lost on April 9 in what will be a make-or-break night in both boxers' careers. Sprott, 35, returned to the ring after a nine-month absence in stunning fashion on Saturday with a knockout victory inside 60 seconds against German Werner Kreiskoff. "When I suffered the tragic loss of my sister, I had to pull out of the Prizefighter tournament that Audley went on to win," added Sprott. "I have no doubt in my mind I would've won that tournament. I'm confident the result against Audley will be the same as last time." Matchroom Sport Chairman Barry Hearn was expecting a fantastic contest. He said: "This is a fight the public wants to see between two of Britain's best heavyweights. "Albert Sosnowski getting a shot at the WBC belt has shown how close these boxers are to fighting for a world title if they win on April 9."

DeGale to box at the Boleyn Ground
Olympic champion James DeGale will fight for his first title on May 15 at Upton Park, West Ham - and says it will be the first of many. DeGale, who has only had six professional fights, will challenge for the Vacant WBA International super-middleweight title over 12 rounds. "I've done 10 rounds in sparring, but I feel ready for the step up," said DeGale. "I've had a lot of amateur fights, a lot of experience before I turned professional, and people are going to see another wicked performance from me. "I'm looking forward to hearing the bell go for rounds nine, 10, 11 and 12 so I can prove to people that I can do the championship distance. "But to be honest I don't think the fight will last that long because I'm feeling so confident at the moment. If I win this fight it will give me a good ranking with the WBA as well and get me noticed all around the world." The belt has previously been held by current British champion Paul Smith, and DeGale may not be far off challenging for the Lonsdale belt. "I was there on Friday night when Smith beat Dodson, and I don't think I'd disgrace myself at that level," he said. "The only thing that is really holding me back is the experience, and by stepping up to championship level I'll be getting it. "I won't be saying that I'm the best in the world after winning this title, but I'm definitely going in the right direction and I see myself at championship level from now on. "I want the British, Commonwealth and European titles at super-middleweight and then I'll move on to the world scene."
Promoter Frank Warren added: "I don't think many young fighters have stepped up this early in their career, but James is a special talent."

Amir Khan stars in America
Their war of words has captivated the boxing world, but on Saturday, May 15, the time for talk will be over when two of the brightest stars in the super lightweight division - WBA Super Lightweight World Champion Amir Khan and former world title holder Paulie "The Magic Man" Malignaggi - finally settle their score at The Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York. The bout, which will be televised live on HBO's Boxing After Dark in the United States, also marks Khan's United States debut which will be taking place in the back yard of Brooklyn's Malignaggi. In the evening's co-feature, it's a true crossroads fight when former World Champion Nate "The Galaxxy Warrior" Campbell tries to halt the rapid rise of hard-hitting rising star "Vicious" Victor Ortiz in a 10 round super lightweight showdown. "Paulie Malignaggi did a great job of talking his way into this fight and I commend him for that," said Khan. "But on May 15he'll have to pay for the things he's said about me and I will have no problem teaching him a lesson in his own hometown. I'm excited for my United States debut and plan on giving the great fans of New York an exciting show on May 15." "I'm the best fighter Amir Khan has ever fought, bar none. I'm going to make sure this is a one and done deal for this poor bloke," said Paulie Malignaggi. "When I'm done with this guy, he'll never want to come to the U.S. again, not even on 'holiday.' It's a good thing he agreed to fight in New York rather than Vegas, this way he saved himself five extra hours of flight time agony thinking about the loss on his way back to England!" This electrifying doubleheader, which is presented by Golden Boy Promotions and DiBella Entertainment in association with Khan Promotions and sponsored by Cerveza Tecate, will be televised live on HBO's Boxing After Dark in the United States beginning at 9:45 pm ET/PT (delayed on the West Coast) with the Cambpell vs. Ortiz bout which is presented in association with One Punch Promotions. "The talking Khan and Malignaggi have been doing over the last few weeks has been entertaining, but I guarantee that the fight on May 15 will be even better," said Oscar de la Hoya, President of Golden Boy Promotions. "This is a very interesting style matchup and when you add that to the big fight atmosphere you always have at Madison Square Garden in New York City and throw in the bad blood between these two, it's definitely going to be a night to remember. Couple all of that with a great co-feature in Nate Campbell vs. Victor Ortiz, and you've got a night of boxing you simply can't miss." "Amir Khan believes he's going to take over America, and on May 15 he'll have the opportunity to prove it against one of the best 140 pounders in the world," said Lou DiBella, President of DiBella Entertainment. "He's going to find out that Madison Square Garden isn't Lancashire, England. Paulie Malignaggi will have the opportunity to become champion again, and Amir Khan can justify all the hype. It's a great matchup." "Madison Square Garden is excited to host Amir Khan vs. Paulie Maignaggi," said Joel Fisher, executive vice president, MSG Sports. "We really respect Khan, who will be making his boxing debut in America, for coming into Paulie's backyard to defend his title. As we know, Paulie is one of New York's favorite fighters and we are expecting a great crowd and a great night of boxing." "We are very excited to be airing Khan vs. Malignaggi," said Luis Barragan, Director of Programming HBO Sports. "Amir Khan is an exceptional young talent and for him to be making his U.S. debut at Madison Square Garden against a skilled fighter like Paul Malignaggi, is a sure recipe for a tremendous "Boxing After Dark. It will be a treat for fans on both sides of 'the pond.'" One of England's biggest sports stars, Amir Khan (22-1, 16 KO's) of Bolton, Lancashire, United Kingdom, captured the imagination of a nation when, at just 17-years-old, he took home a Silver Medal at the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens (as the sole member from the British boxing team). In 2005, he turned professional and has since won 22 of 23 pro bouts, including four in a row. In July of 2009, the 23-year-old - who holds a win over the legendary Marco Antonio Barrera - captured his first World Title when he decisioned Andreas Kotelnik for the WBA 140-pound belt. In his first defense last December, he needed just 76 seconds to take out the previously unbeaten Dmitriy Salita. On May 15, he will attempt to defeat his second straight New Yorker, but this time on foreign soil in his opponent's hometown. Brooklyn's Paulie Malignaggi (27-3, 5 KO's) has made plenty of headlines with his mouth, but it's his fists and his fighting spirit that have gained him respect throughout the boxing world. A slick boxer with speed and a rapid-fire jab, Malignaggi first won a world title in 2007 when he defeated Lovemore N'dou for the IBF Junior Welterweight crown. Since then, Malignaggi has continued to fight the best, including Juan "Baby Bull" Diaz (twice), Ricky "The Hitman" Hatton and Herman Ngoudjo. In his most recent bout, Malignaggi put on a show in defeating Diaz over 12 rounds last December. Now he's ready to do the same thing against Khan in front of his hometown fans this spring. Not only one of the craftiest fighters of the last ten years, but also one of the toughest, Nate Campbell (33-5-1, 25 KO's) has reached the heights of the boxing game as a Unified Lightweight World Champion and he's ready to do it all again at super lightweight. Unbeaten since 2006, the "Galaxxy Warrior" holds victories over Juan Diaz, Ricky Quiles and Kid Diamond, and he plans on punching his way to another title shot by taking out young gun Victor Ortiz. Ultra-talented southpaw "Vicious" Victor Ortiz (26-2-1, 21 KO's) has been thrilling fight fans with his exciting style and fight-ending power ever since his pro debut in 2004. In the last two years, the Ventura, California product really started moving on the fast track, stopping Jeffrey Resto, Mike Arnaoutis and Antonio Diaz over the stretch. Fresh off of a February stoppage of Hector Alatorre, Ortiz looks to repeat his 2007 Madison Square Garden knockout of former World Champion Carlos Maussa when he returns to New York City on May 15 against Campbell.
West Ham United host Kevin Mitchell
Kevin Mitchell today described his chance to fight for a world title at Upton Park as a dream come true - and says it will only be bettered by lifting the WBO lightweight crown against Michael Katsidis. Mitchell, a life-long West Ham fan, will fight the power-punching Australian on May 15 as promoter Frank Warren kicks off the new decade in style. It's his biggest show since more than 50,000 packed the Millennium Stadium, Cardiff, for Joe Calzaghe's super-middleweight unification fight against Mikkel Kessler in 2007. And he says that it will match some of the massive events of the 1990s featuring the likes of Naseem Hamed, Nigel Benn, Chris Eubank and Frank Bruno. For Mitchell, it will be an opportunity to perform at the stadium where many of his heroes plied their trade, including World Cup winners Bobby Moore and Sir Geoff Hurst. "I grew up watching West Ham play and if I hadn't been a boxer I would have been a footballer," said unbeaten Mitchell. "I think one of my proudest moments was being introduced to the fans down here before a game the other week and getting an amazing reception. "But now I'm going to be fighting here and I still can't quite believe it. "The fans in the east end are very special people, and to get the opportunity to fight in front of them is a dream come true. "Boxing and football are a way of life around here, and I think you are going to see an amazing event on May 15 with everyone turning out to see it." Warren added: "There is a long history of boxing in the east end stretching back to the days of Ted Kid Lewis. "But Kevin has got the chance to do what none of the great east end fighters did, and that's fighting for a world title at Upton Park. "The response from all over London has been fantastic. We've waited a long time for a London fighter who can fill stadiums, and Kevin can be that man. "If he beats Katsidis then you are going to see more big fights at West Ham. I can promise you that May 15 is going to be an atmospheric and historic occasion." On the undercard, Sam Sexton will challenge Danny Williams for the British heavyweight title, while fellow prospect Derek Chisora features in a 10 rounder. 2008 Olympic champion James DeGale challenges for his first title, the WBA Intercontinental super-middleweight belt, while Frankie Gavin and Billy Joe Saunders feature in eight rounders.

Mighty Mitchell in East End Assignment
Dagenham Destroyer Kevin Mitchell has promised an old fashioned East End tear up when he faces Aussie powerhouse Michael Katsidis on May 15 in London. Mitchell, 25, will challenge the Australian for the Interim WBO World Lightweight title. And the fight could go on at Upton Park, home of Mitchell's beloved West Ham. Promoter Frank Warren is currently in negotiation with the venue, with the ExCeL Arena also under consideration. "It would be a dream come true to fight at Upton Park," said unbeaten Mitchell at a press conference to officially announce the fight today. "The east end loves a nice little punch up and I'll give them one when I fight Katsidis. "He's a great fighter but I'm confident I'll knock him out. He better bring a good cutsman because I'm planning on busting him up real bad. "It will be a proper tear up on the night, then we'll have a good old knees up afterwards." Warren added: "This fight is going to be a lot bigger than people think. "It will capture the imagination of the east end and we'll get a massive crowd. "Kevin's a real east end boy and I know the people from down that way will come out and support him." Katsidis, who is hoping to get good support from London's Greek and Australian communities, said he was looking forward to returning to London. "I've got happy memories of fighting Graham Earl at Wembley," said Katsidis. "People booed me when I came into the right but our fight was so exciting they were cheering when I left. "There's so many Aussies in London that there could be more of us there than the Brits on the night." Mitchell and Katsidis also swapped insults after champion accused challenger of "running like a cat" against Breidis Prescott. "I won't run from you, I promise that," said Mitchell. "We'll see who runs on the night. I'll land one on your chin and I'll knock you out." Katsidis replied: "Your promoter says you've got a secret weapon - is it your mouth? If you couldn't knock out Prescott how are you going to knock out me? "You can keep on talking but I promise there I'll be there on the night."

Sosnowski shuns Harrison
BARRY Hearn has tipped Poland's Albert Sosnowski to 'cause a big upset' and beat WBC Champion Vitali Klitschko in May. Sosnowski hails from Warsaw but is now based in Brentwood, Essex and is managed by Hearn, who has co-promoted the majority of his fights. Klitschko will be favourite to beat Sosnowski when the pair meet in Gelsenkirchen, Germany, on May 29 but Hearn believes current European Champion Sosnowski will stun the boxing world. "Albert has been European Champion for just two months and has already been offered a shot for the World Heavyweight Championship," said Hearn. "This is a life-changing opportunity for Albert and I feel he has the potential to cause a big upset in Germany." Sosnowski, 31, propelled himself into the boxing big-time in December when he defeated Italian Paolo Vidoz to become European Champion. Former Olympic Games gold medalist Audley Harrison was scheduled to face Sosnowski at London's Alexandra Palace on April 9. However, Hearn confirmed that Harrison will still be in action against a European fighter on that date and a new opponent will be named shortly. "The show on April 9th will go ahead as planned and Audley Harrison will now be fighting a new European opponent," added Hearn. "This opportunity for Albert shows just how close Audley is to realising his dream of fighting for a world title." Sosnowski, who is licensed by the British Boxing Board of Control, has defeated current British Champion Danny Williams and won 45 of 48 professional contests. Harrison, 38, a former Olympic Games gold medalist, kept his professional career alive by winning Matchroom Sport's Prizefighter Heavyweights 3 tournament in October.
Brook looks to Shine in Liverpool
Welterweight ace Kell Brook plans on taking a step closer to a world title shot on Friday - and then watching the man he wants to beat 24 hours later. Brook boxes Poland's Krzysztof Bienias in an eliminator for the WBO World title on Friday night in Liverpool. And the next night holder Manny Pacquiao defends against Joshua Clottey in the States. "After I've knocked out Bienias I'll sit down in front of the television and watch the Pacquiao fight," said Brook. "If I hadn't been fighting on Friday I might have gone to the States to be ringside. "Manny is the man to beat at the moment, and it's either him or Mayweather who is the pound-for-pound number one."Pacquiao's not unbeatable, he's has been beaten before, it will take a special fighter to beat him right now. "Obviously I need more fights before I face him, but if the fight did happen, I'd be excited at the opportunity rather than worried about the result." Brook, 23, revealed that he's got his sights set on another fighter familiar to Pacquiao - Miguel Cotto. The Puerto Rican, who last year beat Michael Jennings, lost his WBO crown to Pacquiao. But he remains high in the ratings at number three, three places ahead of Brook. "Cotto would be a great fight for me," said Brook. "I'd be out for a bit of revenge for the UK after he beat Jennings last year. "He's a great fighter and definitely world class, but he might have had his time. "I can see a scenario where Pacquiao gives up the title, and may be me and Cotto get it on for the vacant belt. If that's the case then bring it on. "I grew up in an era where Ricky Hatton was constantly chasing a big fight against Kotsya Tyszu.
"Watching him made me realise that you have got to be patient and make sure you pick your moment, but I'm growing in confidence with every fight."
"Watching him made me realise that you have got to be patient and make sure you pick your moment, but I'm growing in confidence with every fight."

Kaymer gets January's Top shot
Martin Kaymer's coolness under pressure at the 72nd hole of the Abu Dhabi Golf Championship has earned the talented young German the first European Tour Shot of the Month Award for 2010. Kaymer was tied with England's Ian Poulter playing the par five 18th hole at Abu Dhabi Golf Club, but the 25 year old produced a brilliant 276 yard three wood second shot which just caught the right side of the 18th green. Two putts for a birdie four secured Kaymer's second Abu Dhabi title in the space of three years by the slimmest of margins. That powerful stroke enabled Kaymer to collect the January Award ahead of Spain's Alvaro Quiros, whose outrageous birdie putt across the full length of the ninth green at Doha Golf Club in the final round of the Commercialbank Qatar Masters, presented by Dolphin Energy, was voted into second place. Third place went to Northern Ireland's Rory McIlroy, who hit a towering approach to within 20 feet of the pin at the 18th hole in the third round of the Abu Dhabi Golf Championship. The Shot of the Month is awarded to the Tour Member for the shot judged to be the best played each month on The European Tour International Schedule. At the end of the season, the winning shot from each month will be nominated for The European Tour Shot of the Year Award.

Poulter wins February's Poll
Englishman Ian Poulter has been named The European Tour's Golfer of the Month for February after claiming his first World Golf Championships title in the WGC-Accenture Match Play at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club in Dove Mountain, Marana, Arizona. Poulter's 4 and 2 win over compatriot Paul Casey in the event's first all European final, was also his first victory on America soil and took him to a career high of fifth in the Official World Golf Ranking. It is the first time the 34 year old Ryder Cup player has won The European Tour's Golfer of the Month award and he receives a jeroboam of Moët & Chandon champagne and an engraved alms dish in recognition of his achievement. Poulter's triumph in the 36 hole final against Casey capped a magnificent week for him personally – he also defeated Justin Leonard, Adam Scott, Jeev Milkha Singh, Thongchai Jaidee, and Sergio Garcia en route to the Championship match – as well as The European Tour as a whole, with seven Members making up the last eight in Arizona. "It felt amazing to win a World Golf Championship and I certainly felt very comfortable and in control on the golf course in Arizona," he said. "It was also great to move up to five in the world and to be recognised with the Golfer of the Month award at the end of it all capped a truly great week for me. "I worked a lot on my game in the off season, particularly on the shots from 100 yards and in, and I think that paid off – I certainly felt like I came out strongly at the start of the year. I feel my game has been in pretty good shape for some time but it was just about ironing out some of the small creases – that has been the thing that has made the big difference." Poulter won the Award ahead of Spain's Miguel Angel Jiménez, who became the eighth oldest European Tour champion by capturing the Omega Dubai Desert Classic, and Australian Andrew Dodt, the Avantha Masters champion, as well as European Tour Member Hennie Otto, who won the Sunshine Tour's Vodacom Championship by nine strokes, and European Challenge Tour Member Michiel Bothma, who claimed the Telkom PGA Championship, also on the Sunshine Tour. South African Charl Schwartzel was named The European Tour Golfer of the Month for January after back-to-back victories in his homeland and both he and Poulter will now go forward for consideration for The 2010 European Tour Golfer of the Year Award at the end of the season.

Warren wins Purse bids for Mitchell vs Katsidis
Promoter Frank Warren today won the purse bids for Kevin Mitchell's challenge for the WBO Interim Lightweight Championship of the World against holder Michael Katsidis. Warren's bid of $515,000USD beat the only other bid of $501,000USD from Katsidis' manager Brendon Smith from Ringstar Promotions. The mouthwatering clash will take place in Britain in May with the winner having to face Mexican Juan Manuel Marquez with 180 days. Londoner Mitchell is hot off a second round knockout of Ignacio Mendoza at Wembley Arena last month and defeated Amir Khan conqueror Breidis Prescott last December. Power-punching Australian Katsidis is well know to British fans after his five-round shoot-out against Graham Earl at Wembley Arena in February 2007 and has gone on to become one of the sports biggest stars. Warren said, "I'm delighted that I won the purse bids for this cracking contest and I'm sure it will be an explosive encounter," "Both guys are come forward, all action, fighters throwing plenty of punches so it's hard not to see this fight developing into real war." Mitchell, 25, said, "Frank has done a fantastic job getting me the fight and bringing it to England," "I know all about Katsidis, I've watched him over here against my then stablemate Graham Earl and I've watched all his fights on dvd," "My trainer Jimmy Tibbs is the best in the business and he'll work-out the plan to beat this guy," "This is the kind of fight I've dreamed of since I was kid and now I've got it I can't wait." "The English and the Aussies have got a big rivalry and we kicked their arses last year to regain the Ashes, so I'm looking forward to kicking Katsidis' arse to win the title."

2014 Vin de Champagne Awards winners
Fate coincided in a happy way when Champagne aficionados Annette Lacey and Tom Warrell (pictured above) respectively won the professional and amateur sections of the 2014 Vin de Champagne Awards on Monday, September 22.
Lacey had been a finalist in the professional section of the award twice before, and the judges were impressed at the way she had developed and matured as a Champagne expert in all three areas of the examination: written paper, face-to-face exam and tasting exam. Lacey is a wine educator at the Sydney Wine Academy. As chairman of the judging panel, I did not find out until the awards presentation ceremony that Lacey had taught the amateur winner, Tom Warrell, at the academy. Quality begets quality. Warrell is the operations manager for Uber taxis. Both reside in Sydney.
My fellow judges were Peter Bourne and Bernadette O'Shea, together with the head of the Champagne Information Centre and organizer of the awards, Elisabeth Drysdale. First-round judges were Paul Boothby, Lexie Thompson and Jim Smith.

text: With the advice and recommendation of fellow Pfers I just purchased a Betsey Johnson Good Girl Hobo. Was so excited when I received it last Monday- it was just what I wanted. BUT it's already broken . I literally carried it three times with no problems. Then, yesterday, went to pick it up by the top shoulder strap and the hardware just broke. So weird- it's like it was already broken or something- I used no force (and did not notice it basically sheered off) until I went to pick it up and the hardware came with it. You know the cute "door knocker" hardwear on the sides? Yep- one of the bolts basically sheered. Sooooo mad!!!! I called the Betsey 1-800 number and no answer since it was the weekend. Called my local store and was told that the manager was out, would be back on Tuesday, and should be able to help me. For the heck of it called another Betsey boutique, in Northern VA, were the saleswoman told me that "oh, yea, a bunch of people are coming in with that problem. There is nothing we can do, Betsey won't take them back. All I can tell you is go to a local shoe repair shop." Wait- so I buy a $300+ dollar bag, carry it 3 times, it breaks and you won't stand behind your product? WTF? On top if it- the way it is broken I don't think the shoe guy will be able to repair it. SOOO MAD! Fortunately, the company I bought it from (not a Betsey Boutique) said they will refund my purchase price less shipping, but what a hassel. And I really liked this bag..-just bought the wallet to match. But if/when I get my refund I think I should just stay away, rather than purchase another of same. I mean if they are all breaking like this....Sorry for the rant, just so PO'd

The jumpsuit is a brilliant piece of clothing. It is an outfit in one, flattering and available on the high street now. But I feel like I might be the only person out there who actually love the Jumpsuit. I have loved them since watching April in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles sporting her yellow version. I have a Primark navy jumpsuit along with a gorgeous elephant print one piece from New Look.
I love this daisy print from NZ Street Style.
(Photo Source 1, Photo Source 2)
It can be dressed up with some heels and leather accessories, or dressed down with some plimsoles and add a denim jacket.
(Photo Source 1, Photo Source 2)
Belt it and show off your figure in a block primary colour or a stunning stand out print.
Or go bold in a bright colour and print. (Photo Source)
Buy now to take advantage of the mid-season sales with the best available at New Look, Asos and cute prints at Oasis. Even if it is just a fashion fad I will be wearing my jumpsuits for a while – easy, on trend and cute.

Narcissistic parental abuse wrecks lives and destroys childhoods
You are here because you have had an encounter with a narcissist. It could be that your parent was narcissistic or that you have children with one. Either way, you are no doubt bearing the scars right now.
The narcissist will do anything and everything to protect themselves from revealing their inadequacy. That includes lying, manipulating, controlling, guilt-tripping, gaslighting, smearing your name, threatening and even murder
The narcissistic personality is ego-centric. Whilst they portray this "hollier-than-thou" persona in public, behind closed doors they can make your blood run cold. They fluctuate between self love and self loathing but that hatred will be directed outwardly, towards you. No matter what you do, it will be criticised and belittled. This is in part to destroy you and any confidence you have but also to bolster their own low self esteem.
They fear you abandoning them so beat you down to make you believe that you are lucky to have them. And if you do leave, you will be punished. And so will the children.
Why The Nurturing Coach
When I was experiencing narcissistic abuse and parental alienation, I wanted someone who understand and helped me to find myself again. I couldn't find anyone with this expertise so, once I felt stronger, I decided to use my experience as a social worker and retrain as an NLP Practitioner.
My role is to hold your hand. To understand and console. To push you when you need pushing, congratulate when you have excelled and nurture you to recovery.
My desire is to work with you to create a new version of you. A stronger, more hopeful and wiser version who is excited about the world and their life.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sarah's services to anyone dealing with a narcissist. An invaluable asset to our society today.
LJ - Parent
I found it very helpful speaking with the nurturing coach. This was the first time I had spoken to a professional al person on the subject of narccasicim. Usually I speak to friends and family but I don't speak to them to often, as I dont want to bore them. Or go on to much about what's been happening. As some of it is so crazy. Unless you have had a similar experience. It's hard for people to truly understand.
MC - Parent
I had a direction establishing session with Sarah! Awesome, intelligent, professional go-to-person! She was listening and picking up on what matters for me and my personal growth.
Highly recommended coach!

Elijah Receiving Bread from the Widow of Zarephath, 1621 - 1624
J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles.
Elijah the prophet went to Zarephath.
As he arrived at the entrance of the city,
a widow was gathering sticks there; he called out to her,
"Please bring me a small cupful of water to drink."
She left to get it, and he called out after her,
"Please bring along a bit of bread."
1 Kings 17:10-11
The Great High Priest, no information

Unknown Artist. The Widow's Mite. Basilica di Sant'Apollinare Nuovo. Ravenna ITALY. 6th century"Amen, I say to you, this poor widow put in more
than all the other contributors to the treasury.
For they have all contributed from their surplus wealth,

her whole livelihood."

The Look of Love is the story of Erica and Scott Carson. It is a story of their love from the first blush of young love, through the trials and tribulations of a long marriage. After thirty years of marriage, they still cannot keep their hands off each other and when their adult children want to learn the secret of their happy marriage, they find their parents have practiced a domestic discipline lifestyle.
Wearing a white Oxford cloth shirt, open from the neckline with the sleeves rolled up and tucked neatly into jeans that looked molded to his body. She didn't think his legs would ever stop coming out of the car door. When her eyes finally reached his face, it reminded her of chiseled stone. His ebony hair curled slightly at the back of his neck, with gray/blue eyes fringed with dark black lashes. She adjusted her eyes accordingly when he emerged; he hand to be at least 6'8" and 4 feet of him had to be legs. Beautiful was the only word she could think of to describe him and even that didn't define the reality of him. She nearly fainted right there in the street. She didn't believe she would ever swoon over someone, and here she was doing it over a stranger.
Now thirty years later his black hair was slightly peppered with gray. He was beautiful as ever, and she still swooned, but this time those blue/gray eyes were searching the crowd looking for her and when he found her, she could see the love as he strode forward to embrace her. He took her hand, and they walked into the theatre together.
