Zagoria Sightseeing
Zagoria is a complex of 46 mountainous villages on the northeastern part of Greece, in the region of Epirus. The area is famous for its traditional villages and natural beauty, as the National Reserve Vikos-Aoos is found there. Over the last years, the area has developed in active tourism and ecotourism. The most interesting sightseeing in Zagoria is the Vikos Gorge, the second deepest gorge in the world, after the Grand Canyon in the USA. Close to Vikos Gorge is the lovely Monastery of Agia Paraskevi, accessible through a short hike. A drive around the region brings visitors to picturesque villages, such as Papigo, Vitsa, and Monodendri.
In this section, you can see the best Zagoria Sightseeing but also things to see by location. Do not miss to also read about things to do.
You can also view all things to do in Zagoria by category: villages, museums, and churches.
Best Sightseeing
Vikos Gorge is the second deepest gorge in the world (after Grand Canyon in the USA). It offers impressive views and great chances for extreme sports.
Voidomatis is an amazing river that runs through Vikos Gorge and close to many villages of Zagoria. It offers many spots of natural beauty and excellent chances for extreme sports.

Natalie's in college, struggling to make ends meet, and make her tuition payments, while also sending money home to help her family. When she's offered a job by one of the theater professors, it seems like a dream come true – a steady job that can pay her tuition.
It turns out that the professor is one of a band of protectors of the king in another dimension that somehow found their way into our world. The king is in danger, and had to flee. They can all be tracked, so they've been looking for someone that can take care of themselves to make contact with their supporters in their homeworld, and let them know the king is still alive.
This is pretty much your standard young person gets thrust into a pretty tough situation and grows into it admirably kind of story. It's not bad, but I've definitely read better. And it ends on a really annoying cliffhanger.

Guest Post by Chef Ursula Rafer
I love sushi! It looks beautiful, the presentation is sophisticated, and it reminds me of special dinners spent with my little sister Katlyn. I understand, however; that raw fish and masago are not everyone's favorite… so when I am entertaining and I can't bear to leave it out…I make Candy Sushi instead! (Actually, granola bars and other healthy, but tasty goodies are used).
Candy Sushi is simple enough for kids to make and fancy enough to impress all your guests! It is perfect for any occasion and the talk of every dessert table I've ever done.
Plus, it can be made a day or two ahead if needed. (Love planning ahead!)
Below is a step by step guide to Sashimi Over Rice (Candy Sushi Part 1)
Here's your ingredients list:
1 box of Chewy Protein Bars. (I love Bunny Bars and Think Thin because they taste amazing and are low calorie= we can eat more)
1 box of fruit leather or strips…Dark fruit makes the seaweed look more realistic. (Archer Farms brand from Target have great flavor are nice and sticky for molding)
1 bag Swedish Fish Candies (any colors work, but need to be full size fish)
Sushi Spoons or paper liners for presentation
Optional: Orange or Black Sprinkles for Masago (Fish Eggs)
Step 1: Cut your Granola Bars into roughly inch cubes. These will be the rice for our Sashimi to be placed on.
After all your bars are cut…
Step 2: Cut or peel fruit leather into strips. This will be our seaweed.
Step 3: On each granola rice square place one Swedish fish in the center and 1 strip of fruit seaweed lengthwise.
Step 4: If you are not adding sprinkles as Masago… you can place each Sashimi piece folding the fruit seaweed underneath (it should stick to itself pretty well) and place on a spoon or liner.
Step 5: For the Masago, pour a few sprinkles in a bowl or a clean palm and dip the seaweed/fish side in it…Sprinkles will stick well to fruit roll.
Finally, Place liners in a sushi boat or on a tray to display. For delicious, but realistic looking sides I use Amber Agave for soy sauce, peach fruit roll for ginger and 2 smashed green Swedish fish rolled into balls for wasabi.
Making 50 of these took only about a half hour in the kitchen. Setting up an assembly line for large batches works well, and is fun to do with girlfriends before your shower, wedding or shindig!
This boat looks amazing and tastes even better! They were gobbled up in seconds at this shower.
Note: Granola Bars make for very realistic rice!
I hope you enjoyed this D.I.Y. If you did please comment and we will make sure you learn parts 2, and 3 soon. See preview pic below:
Happy Rolling 🙂

Monthly Archives: October 2012
Government says it is compelled to reduce subsidies on essential commodities to meet its balance of payment crisis. They laments over the huge budget deficits.They say India can no longer afford to remain a welfare state and must adopt an entrepreneurial government approach.
On one hand Government is announcing free laptops and i-pads to voters and on the other hand they are reducing subsidies to finance their election promises. Is this entrepreneurial govt? Taxpayer's money are used for paying MGNREGA workers but what assets have we generated in 7 yrs of its implementation. I still see no roads, water reservoirs, etc. developed out of MGNREGA. Is this entrepreneurial govt? Petroleum prices are being increased citing the huge losses made by petroleum companies and reduction of subsidies. But why no one is saying that USA pays 20% more subsidy than India on every essential products. They have money to pay the subsidies. Does Indian govt. is short of money? If yes, then why did they not try to generate money through allocation of natural resources. More than sixty lakh crores have been lost due to various political corruption in 2012 alone (Click Here to know more) and Govt ministers shamelessly says there is zero loss. The Special Economic Zones are being designed to cater the needs of capitalist classes, but what about aam aadmi. SEZ provides zero tax to companies and other benefits at subsidised rates. Mr Kamal Nath argues that this is being done to boost exports. But Mr Nath, please tell that exports through SEZs accounted for only 4% of total exports (2008-09 data) whereas exports through SMEs accounted for about 34.5%. Then who should be provided tax benefits. The capitalists setting up huge industries in SEZ or the common poor people involved in small and medium industries.
Manmohan Singh has suddenly become Manmohan Singham and is keen on implementing reforms. FDI in retail is on top of his cards. But tell me why does he become Singham only when it is the matter of providing benefits to foreign firms and countries (last time he became Singham during US nuclear deal). Why is he not becoming Singham on the so many rapes being committed in India? FDI in retail is supported by me as it will make the lives of many middle class families in India easy. A bania sells ten rupees cold drinks for twelve rupees citing refrigeration charges, a chemist sells duplicate medicines, an electronics shop sells televisions, refrigerators at high prices (esp. during festive and marriage seasons). Bringing MNCs in this sector will reduce the monopoly of banias and also generate revenues for government since banias never gives cash memos for the items they sell. But citing back end infrastructure development as the main reason of allowing FDI is not digestible. Mr Manmohan Singh is saying that foreign retails will develop storage houses and thus will save food grains from rotting. But tell me what were you doing for past 65 yrs. You have Food Corporation of India for this purpose and you have not been able to construct godowns. A lot of money is wasted every year for this particular purpose and on papers hundreds of godowns are constructed every year, but Mr Manmohan Singh says we need Walmart to construct storage houses for us. Take my advise Mr Singh; shut down FCI and with the money used for paying these idiots salary, build storage houses. Build thousands of them. Very recently Maharashtra farmers were destroying their potatoes produce citing very low prices. Had Indian govt. developed a good network of godowns, they could have bought it from farmers and stored it for future use. But no, govt is more interested in reducing subsidies on LPG cylinders. Fine, the people often going to CCDs. KFCs, McD, etc will not have much problem in paying the non subsidised LPG cylinders but why do you take the plea of lack of money with the govt as a reason for reducing the subsidies? You did not think of this before allotting coal mines at throw away prices to Naveen Jindal and the alike or providing lease of IGI Airport to GMR group (which caused a loss of 166,000 crores).
2014 Lok Sabha polls are coming and since Mr Manmohan Singh's government policies are very myopic, they can bring Food Security Bill at that time to gather votes. But this bill will again prove to be a big burden on the exchequer and further aggravate the inflation scenario in the country. Mr Manmohan Singh may be having this Bill in mind while announcing reduction of subsidies. The money thus saved through reduction may be used for the Food Security Bill. Who cares for the burden of increase in prices of essential commodities? Certainly Mr Vadra and his high C2C paid friends in DLF do not.
Improving the micro-economic datas of the country is very important, especially when we have a trade deficit of around six lakh crores. But certainly not at the cost of aam aadmi. If govt seriously wanted to bring the economy back on track, it could have done easily by simply auctioning two natural resources of the country – 2G and coal. Six lakh trade deficit could have been reduced to two and half lakh crores.
Its time we should seriously introspect and find a political alternative. Here's a look of the vision document of Kejriwal's party:
1. Lokpal Bill will be brought in within 10 days of the party being voted to power.
2. People will decide the price of essential commodities.
3. Any person can lodge a complaint against any leader with the Lokpal.
4. No beacons on cars of any MPs or MLAs.
5. All expenditure and fund details to be posted on the party's website.
6. All colonial laws on land acquisition to be abolished.
7. Right to Reject and Right to Recall.
8. A maximum of 2 years to act on any case of corruption.
9. Everyone will be provided with good education and good healthcare services.
10. Farmers will be given good price for their produce.
11. People will have the right to participate in the formulation of laws and government's policies.
12. No government money will be used in any area without the will of the people.
Kejriwal does not promises any Aarakshan or Ram Mandir or Laptops or Berozgari bhatta….As simple as that.
Next time think before you vote. And please vote.
CLICK HERE to read an interesting article from THE HINDU, dated 04 Oct. 2012.
I do not know much of the incidents in and around Operation Blue Star but one thing I am sure that Jarnail Singh Brar/Bhindranwale was allotted 10 arms licenses at a stretch on the recommendations of PMO, which was then headed by Mrs Indira Gandhi. Jarnail had earlier campaigned a lot for the Congress party in assembly elections and even fielded his candidates for SGPC elections. After being unsuccessful in democratic methods, he was frustrated and wanted to try other means to get in power. It was this power-hunger of Jarnail which made him fall in the trap of the ex Chief Minister of Punjab Giani Zail Singh and Mrs Gandhi. Both of them used Jarnail to destabilise the Akali Dal government of Prakash Singh Badal in Punjab. And they were even successful to some extent. Jarnail carried out widespread killings of Nirankaris and Hindus including Lala Jagat Narain. But soon Mrs Gandhi's pet turned against her and pointed the barrel at her own godmother. He called her bitch and all other sorts of name. But even then Mrs Gandhi was assured that Jarnail would return to her with swinging tails and so she even asked the then Haryana Chief Minister Bhajan Lal to go slow on Jarnail.
Jarnail never actually demanded Khalistan in the first place but warned his sikh brothers of insecurity they are facing in the ocean of Hindus. Although later he said on one occasion that if he is granted a separate country, he would not refuse. Obviously this statement came under the influence of ISI who provided him arms and money. Mrs Gandhi kept on ignoring Jarnail and considered him as a minor threat. She was more occupied with the Red Terrorists emerging in the eastern part of the country then. But when she actually thought of teaching Jarnail a lesson, he had went inside the temple with arms and ammunition and had strongly fortified it. He was infact warned by his ISI friends of a military crackdown, today or tomorrow.
Many top army brass refused to carry out the operation and had to face the wrath of Mrs Gandhi. Finally it was Gen Vaidya who took up the job of leading his men into the most controversial military operation of the world. He was supported by Mr Brar. It was Brar's decision to call in the tanks to make a final assault. Within minutes of the involvement of the tanks, Bhagwan Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale a.k.a. Bhindru was dead.
But still some questions haunt the Sikh community people and the personnel of Indian Amry:
QUE 1) Was Indian Army and its personnel who carried out Operation Blue Star did anything wrong?
QUE 2.) Was Bhindranwale a freedom fighter and thus a martyr or simply a terrorist?
QUE 3.) Is the assassination of Gen Vaidya and attempted assassination on Lt. Gen Brar justified?
QUE 4.) Why was Bhindranwale allowed in the first place to have weapons and also allowed to fortify the Golden Temple premises?
Questions may be lot more, but the answer lies in an another incident which took place in Akshardham temple of Gujarat where around 200-250 devotees were taken hostage by two terrorists. NSG commandos were deputed to flush out the terrorists and they did the job as usual. However they even lost one of their companion in the gunfight. Around 40-50 civilians also died in the crossfire. But no hindu came up and said that the NSG operation was not justified or those who entered the Akshardham temple to kill the terrorists must be assassinated, etc etc. Even the muslims of India and most of the other nations of the world do not call those terrorists as martyrs as terrorists do not have any religion or ideology. They are simply psychopaths suffering from some sort of serious neuron disorder. So why are these sikhs making so much brouhaha. Bhindru was a terrorist and so was gunned down. Sikh should in fact be thankful to people like Mr Brar who freed the community of its stain.

Babies who weight 5. 5 pounds (2500grams) or less at birth are low babies with low birth weight. Babies weighing 3. 3 pounds (1500 grams) or less are Very low birth weight babies. There is a significant medical and social cost for low birth weight infants and preterm births. Low birth weight is a major predictor of infant mortality. Ethnic and cultural group's disparities related to low birth weight infant and preterm infant are significantly disproportionate, affecting minority Americans.
Although infant morbidity can not be directly linked with low birth weight but it is a frequently used as a marker for poor health at birth because it amounts for the leading risk factor for infant morbidity and for subsequent mortality among the surviving infants. The extent of which ethnic and cultural disparities in low birth weight reflect socioeconomic inequalities, cigarette smoking during pregnancy, young maternal age and low educational achievements are also associated with low birth weights.
The hospital costs for low birth weight infants during the first year of life in 2001 totaled $5. 8 billion, representing forty-seven percent of all infant hospitalizations costs and twenty seven percent of all pediatric hospital costs. Even if the infant's family has insurance, the co pay amount is significantly large, if we include cost of travel, lodging, food, time off from work and loss of productivity; it is very expensive and unaffordable for the society and the families. Pre term births increase a child risk for health and developmental problems.
Pre term births less than thirty seven weeks of gestation is associated with poor health and social/emotional functioning measured at preschool age, adolescence and young adulthood. Less than 29 weeks of gestation age infants are at risk of increased impaired brain function due to brain injury and disruptions in early brain development. Low birth weight is also linked to various problems in infants, including : chronic conditions such as respiratory problems, cerebral palsy, infections, above average use of health services, regular use of medications, limitations of activity and linked to have below average IQs.
I feel the support services and systems in my community for preterm infants and their families are inadequate because there is no attention is paid on enforcing the health education and promoting healthy living based on evidence and no research group has been set up to identify the root cause of the problems that is leading to low birth weights infants and preterm births. Aggressive public health education campaign should be initiated by the administration to make the public aware of the consequence of pre term birth and low birth infants.

Hi Guys!
Wow it's so F***ing hot here in Belgium, Shooting in these temperatures is like crazy!!
The burning sun make it hard to keep focus..
Last summer it was a lot colder.. but now?! It's not that I'm complaining, I like a hot summer.
Anyway my outfit for you.
My light green tee with the cool print of Jamaica match very well with my yellow pants. It are both pastel colors..
If you like, you can always add a third piece, a pastel blue vest for example.
Pastels are really easy to combine.
In my case a vest was just too much with this weather..
But if you don't live in Jamaica or in Belgium (for the moment) it is possible.
Look at the Details and try to fit pastel colors at home.
Feel free to share on Facebook/Twitter/Instagram…

I first learned about the blame game as a little kid watching
the frightening movie, "Jaws". Remember that scene where the
coast guard, with high-powered rifles ready, comes upon two kids
dressed up as dorsal fins, intent on scaring the hell out people
swimming in the water? Staring up at the barrel of a shotgun
and quivering as he was about to meet his maker, one of the
kids points at his buddy and says, "He made me do it."
And it was then, that I learned about pointing the finger at
someone else to deflect any blame for yourself. Years later,
I found out about "scapegoats" and "throwing people under
the bus", a popular phrase used to describe a person who kills
others in order to save themselves. It happens everyday in
the workplace and society doesn't it? There are people in
your office who would "throw their mothers under the bus"
if it meant getting ahead. That's how cutthroat things have
Now, as we've come to the final day of the season, where
the Red Sox could either put the exclamation point on one
of the biggest collapses in baseball history or rinse away
all the negativity with a win over Baltimore and a loss by
the Rays, big fingers have been pointed and that giant
yellow bus has been racking up the miles. How could the
Red Sox blow a nine-game lead in early September? Why
did it even come to this? Who should take the blame?
Who should take the fall?
The hacks on sports radio, geeks on the Internet, and
columnists who have the ability to erase and delete have
delivered their hard-hitting opinions on who is to blame
for the Red Sox monumental collapse. Is it manager
Terry Francona or GM Theo Epstein? After all, somebody
has to "take the fall" for what could be an epic disaster, right?
They say Francona has made questionable moves and
Theo didn't make any trades to fortify the starting pitching,
not to mention the disastrous signing of Carl Crawford.
The baseball "insiders" have chimed in with their reports
that the relationship between Francona and Epstein has
become "strained", with each not wanting to be held
accountable for this debacle. There has already been
talk of Francona being Grady Little-d, painted as the
scapegoat and replaced by Bobby Valentine. Its funny
how fast and hard you can fall, especially after winning
two world series titles in seven years, in a town that hadn't
captured one in the 86 years before that.
In most cities, Epstein would have a big target on his back,
but in Boston, Boy Wonder is untouchable. He grew up a
David Ortiz tape-measure shot from Fenway Park and is
considered a hero for bringing a World Series to Boston, even
though he inherited a powerfully-built team that was constructed
by Dan Duquette. Esptein is also a favorite of John Henry,
and it seems that no matter how reckless Epstein was
with Henry's money, there is no way that he's going to
get really dinged with what could be considered a fiasco
if the Red Sox don't make the playoffs.
The pressure is clearly on Francona in the final game
of the season. He will be made the scapegoat for what
will be an epic collapse. Francona was considered a
genius on September 4th with the Red Sox all but assured
of a ticket to baseball's post-season party. Then his
starters couldn't make it past the third inning, Kevin
Youkilis couldn't play, and John Lackey started acting
like a petulant child who didn't get his way. Did Francona,
who has won as many titles as Tony LaRussa, the chosen
one, in about half as many years, all of a sudden become
incompetent as a manager? No. His pitching staff became
incompetent and he still had to pencil Carl Crawford's
name into the line-up every night.
Francona has done a great job in his career with the
Red Sox. Two World Series titles in seven years should
enough to keep his job safe. But this is Boston, a city that knows
all too well about epic collapses and demands that
someone pay for it. Bill Buckner found that out. So
did John McNamara and Don Zimmer. If the Red
Sox choke on the chalupa tonight or tomorrow, I sure
hope Francona doesn't fall into the same category with
the other fall guys. He doesn't deserve to be thrown under
the bus or have the finger pointed at him. But that's not how
things work in our society or Boston, does it?

Glasgow scientists create 3D image of cancer protein
Scientists in Glasgow have created the first 3D image of a key protein which can help prevent cancer.
c-Cbl controls cell growth which, when unregulated, causes cells to divide excessively and can lead to cancer. It can be defective in leukaemia patients.
By mapping the protein researchers at the Beatson Institute have found it changes shape when working properly.
They say the discovery is a step towards designing more effective cancer drugs in the future.
The Cancer Research UK team used hi-tech X-ray analysis to map out the structure of the protein.
They said discovering that c-Cbl can switch between two shapes could help scientists find ways to prevent faulty c-Cbl from triggering cancer.
Uncontrolled growth
Dr Danny Huang, who led the research, said: "Using cutting-edge research techniques we've created the first 3D image of the structure of this protein - which is pretty incredible because in real life it's about the size of a millionth of a hair width.
"We were intrigued to see that this protein actually changes shape when it's switched on.
"Understanding the structure of this protein is vital because if the protein can't be switched on it is more likely to cause cancer. So cracking the 3D structure is a step towards designing the cancer drugs of the future."
The team showed that when it is "switched on" c-Cbl labels a cell receptor molecule for destruction. In healthy cells this means the cell growth signal is switched off at the right time.
However, in cancer cells the signals do not get switched off, leading to uncontrolled cell growth.
If c-Cbl cannot change to its active shape, it cannot label the receptor for destruction.
Dr Julie Sharp, senior science information manager at Cancer Research UK, said: "Thanks to the generosity of the public, we're able to spend more than £18m each year on a range of projects in Glasgow.
"Research like this helps us better understand how cancer cells grow, survive and spread.
"We hope these intriguing 3D structures of a key cancer protection protein will help pave the way to new approaches to tackle this disease more effectively."
The scientists' findings are published in Nature Structural & Molecular Biology.

The LibDems conference this week, some of which I have watched. A sense of a lack of excitement and vision, or at least one which does not suggest that there is anything very different about the LD's from any other party.
Something does need to break this obsession with trying to gain as many voters as possible hence the lack of choice. Clare Short is right - we need electoral reform and I think only a hung parliament could offer that. Assuming people bother to vote next time....I think you would be very hard pushed to know what party most politicians belong to . They use the same soundbites, have the same essential message. There's nothing to inspire.

Jill Lepore isn't the first New Yorker staff writer to sink her teeth into Joe Gould.
Gould, the eccentric, often homeless New York City bohemian (b. 1889—d. 1957), was profiled twice by legendary journalist Joseph Mitchell: In 1942, his article "Professor Sea Gull" highlighted Gould's claim of writing the longest book in history—a chronicle of everyday New Yorkers, entitled Meo Tempore or The Oral History of Our Time—on a tremendous collection of notebooks and scrap paper. In 1965, "Joe Gould's Secret" revealed that the work likely never existed.
Or did it?
"For me, the captivating thing about Gould wasn't like, Oh! What a kooky character!" says Lepore, author of Joe Gould's Teeth. "The thing for me about Gould was, My god, what if that oral history existed? What an incredible archive! It's like the idea of the Federal Writers' Project records or the kind of thing StoryCorps does now, but nearly a century old....That's totally [exciting] to someone with my interests as a historian."
Lepore teaches American history at Harvard. Her works include a rigorous biography of Benjamin Franklin's sister, Book of Ages: The Life and Opinions of Jane Franklin (2013), and The Secret History of Wonder Woman (2014), which places the popular comic book character in the context of the women's liberation movement. She specializes in the unsung, marginalized, and forgotten—exactly as Gould claimed to.
As Mitchell quoted Gould in "Professor Sea Gull": "I'll put down the informal history of the shirt-sleeved multitude—what they had to say about their jobs, love affairs, vittles, sprees, scrapes, and sorrows—or I'll perish in the attempt," Lepore writes.
One spring semester, Lepore assigned the Mitchell profiles to her students. In asking them to create a timeline of Gould's mysterious life, she quickly tumbled down the rabbit hole.
"There ought to be a DANGER sign," Lepore writes in Joe Gould's Teeth, a book-length expansion of her New Yorker feature by the same title. "Writers tumble into this story and then they plummet. I have always supposed this to be because Gould suffered from graphomania—he could not stop writing—which is an illness, but seems more like something a writer might have to envy, which feels even rottener than envy usually does because Joe Gould was a toothless madman who slept in the street. You are envying a bum: Has it come to this, at last? But then you're relieved of the misery of that envy when you learn that everything he wrote was dreadful. Except, wait, that's worse, because then you have to ask: Maybe everything you write is dreadful, too? (WARNING: Do not ask this question from the bottom of a well.) But then, in one last twist, you find out that everything he wrote never even existed. Still, either way, honestly, it's depressing as hell."
Gould was Harvard educated; he was a bum. Perhaps a genius, likely insane. He had tons of famous literary friends and, for a time, an anonymous patron. He was self-aggrandizing, beggarly, and a knave. He lied to friends and harassed perceived foes, like the Guggenheim Foundation grant officials who received a rude, racially charged harangue in 1934.
"By now, hardly anyone could fail to see, he was mean; he was vicious," Lepore writes of Gould at that time. "He was wretched and abandoned. He smelled; he was covered with sores and infested with bedbugs. He was terribly, terribly ill. [e.e.] Cummings made him sit on the windowsill so he wouldn't leave lice on the furniture."
But Gould's worst offense, as per Joe Gould's Teeth, is his deleterious obsession with an African American artist named Augusta Savage. She was a sculptor, a teacher (whose school became the Harlem Community Art Center), an activist, and one of the most important figures of the Harlem Renaissance. He harassed, stalked, and likely assaulted her; ultimately, she fled to rural Saugerties, New York, where she lived the rest of her life.
Lepore's interest soon transferred from rooting out the Oral History to discovering Savage.
"I was looking for the oral history for a long time, and then I was looking for Augusta Savage for the rest of the time," Lepore says. "The one thing that could come out of this book, that would make me happy to have done it, is if someone would write just a knockout biography of Savage. She's quite fascinating, and it would be a great contribution for someone to do that."
To inspire a biography of Gould would not be to her taste.
"Really, I was so done with Gould," she says. "I find writing essays so much easier than writing books, because a book is a kind of a race against restlessness—it's not quite boredom, it's kind of like I want to be writing something else—but Gould, especially, is a person you don't want to spend any large time with."

text: This reminds me of when I was a teenager studying for my grade 7. I borrowed a cornet while mine was away having a repair done and stupidly blamed the instrument for my poor performance during practice. My tutor, an elderly gentleman, took the cornet from me and made it sing. He gave it back to me and said 'they all play a little differently but none are all that bad', now play. I can't remember his name, everyone was either Sir or Miss, but I remember the lesson.

Either way, the right one still works so I can use that for quick reference. And.......it has a headphones input so I can mix through my headphones IN STEREO! I'm not totally fucked! YAY!
Hopefully I've finished with a mix I've been working on for a client. If so, I'll get to work on the next string of episodes. Keep it metal!
Looks like I'll be using headphones til I can afford new monitors! lol!

The first time I heard about Pretty Little Thing was when I noticed it advertised on tv several weeks ago. It just looked like another cheap store with the same items as every other store you see advertised. I ended up seeing the ad enough times to decide to open the site up and have a look. I loved what I found.
I don't think I've ever done a proper online store shopping review before, so I thought it was about time! I know I definitely tend to search for reviews before shopping somewhere for the first time, so I hope this helps anyone thinking about shopping at Pretty Little Thing.
Pretty Little Thing is packed with every popular/trendy style of clothing in all the best colours. Blush, dusty rose, khaki, nude, camel, sky blue, black, grey and white to name my favourites. They also have the perfect size range - from a size 6 right up to a size 16. I love how they cater to every girl, no matter what size. They also have a great range of shoes and heaps of different accessories including bags, sunglasses, jewellery and even makeup. As I was scrolling through I spotted so many items I liked, so I decided to create a little wishlist by Adding Things to my cart, think on it for a few days then come back if I still wanted those items. I went through the pages filtered by particular colours, as I knew which colours I really wanted to add to my wardrobe.
At the time of adding things to my cart I noticed the 20% off countdown they had at the top of the website. It almost sucked me in at the time and made me rush to order, but I was still intent on thinking about the items I wanted before ordering. So I let the countdown run out, refreshed the site and it had started back up again! So don't get caught out by the discount countdown. They tend to always have some kind of promotion running. Right now they have 30% off everything which is amazing.
I came back after a few days and I made an order, using the 20% off countdown code that was still there. The only issue I had was using the free shipping code as well. As far as I could see you can only use one code per order, and I couldn't be bothered asking about that. So I decided to use the discount code, and I paid the extra $6 for standard shipping. Everything went through fine, I received an order confirmation email and another dispatch email to say it had been sent off.
I placed my order on a Saturday night, and on the next Friday (5 business days) my order arrived. For $6 I was pretty happy with that. I was able to track it easily with the tracking link they gave me in the email that was sent when my order was dispatched. I made an order at Missguided right after PLT and their parcel took an extra business day to arrive.
Overall I'm happy with the items I purchased. There was only one piece that I was slightly underwhelmed by, but otherwise everything looked just like it looked on the website, some items even better than what I expected.
I bought a dusty rose jumper in M/L which fits perfectly, much better quality than what I expected and the colour looks even better in reality. I'm actually wearing it as I type this - keeps me warm on a cold day and brightens me up with a beautiful colour. I got a pair of washed black skinny jeans with ripped knees which are a little on the tight side (going with my usual size). I'd suggest going a size up in their jeans, as it's a whole lot easier to tighten them up with a belt than to try and squeeze into them :) . The nude creeper sneakers I got are incredible and super comfy as well. The rose bodysuit is a nice thick fabric and fits perfectly. And I love the khaki midi skirt I got - although it's very cheap thin fabric, it still looks really nice and fits well. The item I wasn't that impressed with were the pink leggings, which are a darker pink than what appears on the website, and the lines are more visible than what I expected. They're the comfiest things to wear around home with a big cardi or jumper though.
I will be shopping at Pretty Little Thing again for sure. There were more items I wanted at the time of my first order but I didn't want to go crazy in case anything went wrong with shipping or if the quality reflected the price. It's hard to know whether to trust online stores you've never shopped from before, but I hope this helps you out if you're thinking of shopping there. It's a good one!

Evening kids. Welcome to 2011. It's AT here, (aka @Maverick99sback). I've written a lil bit about a bit of a classic, and one of GCs fave films. Meanwhile, he's done a lil thing about music over on my site.
The One Where I Think I Heart Apocalypse Now
Is Apocalypse Now the greatest war movie ever, or a pondering mess?
I think it's a bit of both.
Watching on Blu Ray (Thanks to Christmas, and the little baby Jesus), the film just smacks you in the face. Epic, Iconic. It's Hollywood Legend. Unavoidable.
My film-watching path in 2011 was meant to jump from Tarantino straight to Scorsese, but I had to rethink that. I needed a stopgap. And that beautiful Full Disclosure box set, (FINALLY including Hearts Of Darkness!), was just staring me square in the eyes. Hang over, or no hangover, it demanded watching.
Apocalypse Now is absolutely a film that deserves to be written about. I'm just not too sure what I want to say about it.
My Dad popped in to say Happy New Year, and I offered to lend him the Bluey. Despite loving the film, or the idea of the film, he declined. He said he knew the film inside out, line for line, and was surprised I didn't too.
I do.
So why watch it? Why be so keen to import it from the States and get hold of it?
Valid questions. And as it ticks on in the background, I struggle to answer any of them.
Certain sections of Apocalypse Now are up there with the very best bits of cinema ever created. The Ride of the Valkyries sequence is incredible. So cinematic. Such a great use of sound, and visuals. It gets the blood pumping.
Robert Duvall channeling Robert DeNiro helps. It's probably my favorite role of his. His demented search for his surfboard summing up the craziness of the film.
And then it hits me.
The craziness of war. That's why I revisit this film so much.
No film has ever got close to creating that on screen, for me.
The whole film, if you sit back and think about it, has very little to do with war itself.
It's about what that war has done to people.
Kurtz going a bit head mental is an obvious example. The soldiers trying to get on stage with the Playboy girls is another, more subtle example. Turning on the girls, when the soldiers see their routine as more of a tease.
This war is going to end, says Kilgore. And he just nods. No one really knows what to say to him.
For anyone tempted by the Bluey, I'm sure you won't need persuading. If you love the film, you've probably already imported it.
But I can't stress enough how impressive it looks.
The film looks like it was made yesterday. Not in a Predator waxwork re-release kind of way. It just drips sweat. Martin Sheen is permanently drenched, and for the first time I've seen it, it feels like that is dripping off the screen.
The sound too, is incredible. It obviously peaks forty minutes in, with that scene, but what a scene. That is what cinema is all about.
And to finally have both versions plus Hearts Of Darkness? Well, that's the stuff of dreams.
Even if it's all just a little bit pointless, I certainly get some satisfaction.

Happy 23: The Best Dorm Mate/
Introduction: Up to this point Happy Tails has focused on rescued animals: street cats, abandoned dogs, neglected ferrets, wildlife in distress etc. However today's post is something a little different; it is not about an animal rescued by a human, but rather by a human rescued by an animal. Some animal rescue workers believe Never Breed or Buy While Shelter Animals Die, and while in general I would promote adoption very strongly, there are some very good reasons why one might opt to get a pet from a responsible breeder rather than a shelter. This story focuses on one of them...
Hayden attended Swarthmore as freshman intending to major in engineering. Like all the other students, he faced the trials and tribulations of the first year of college, the institutional food, the maze-like campus and the double edged sword of greater independence. However he had one challenge to face greater than others, the fact that he could not see.
Enter Fathom, the hero of our story, a yellow lab/golden retriever cross breed, specially bred and trained at The Seeing Eye in Morristown, NJ. Fathom and Hayden were paired up together over the summer and went back for sophomore year as a team. Hayden raised his bed and made a den for his pooch underneath, so that they both could enjoy the relative comfort of dorm living as bunkmates. Fathom learned the layout of the campus, the places Hayden had to go and even the places he wished he was going to, never failing to point out the ice cream stand on their trips through the cafeteria.
With Fathom at his side, Hayden has been able to enjoy college life to its fullest. He's felt comfortable taking greater risks, knowing he has Fathom to ground him emotionally and be there for him physically. With his canine companion, he's had the confidence to make new friends and the bravery to agree to take a research grant and spend the summer at a university halfway across the United States.
"Fathom is a best friend, a constant companion, a guardian, a brother, and a son all in one. He brings me strength, laughter, devotion, and emotional support. When I walk around my campus or just hang out in my room with Fathom, I wonder how I managed to get by without him. He's part of me now. He's part of my soul."
Originally posted on the the SeeingEye's blog, the website for the oldest existing guide dog school in the world, the content has been edited and re-formated by Marjorie Skiba to better fit the voice of the Happy Tails blog with the Seeing Eye's permission.

If I could describe Mom's journey through dementia in one word, it would be anger.
There is a new person at our Alzheimer's caregivers support group. She is a caretaker wife. Her husband is a large and intelligent person. He is someone who was always responsible, in-charge, providing leadership, and direction. Now he is angry. People are telling him that he can no longer do things he once did, that the things he is saying or doing is "wrong". He is arguing back. He is yelling and angry. She is scared. I am worried for his wife.
He, like my Mother, will not believe the chaos that dementia is causing. They will both keep fighting. They both know they are right.
Dammmmmdementia I hate you.

When choosing its first-ever mascot in 2015, Rio Salado College wanted to make sure the winning concept embraced the college's commitment to its vision, mission and values. That's why the Rio Waves made the final cut.
"The Rio Waves perfectly tells our story," said Rio Salado President Chris Bustamante. "Just like the water of the Salt River, it represents how the college cuts through barriers and navigates around obstacles in order to find innovative ways to serve students."
In 1978, the Maricopa County Community College District governing board embraced a bold new concept proposed by then Chancellor Paul Elsner-- a college without walls.
Rio Salado College was created to serve students in a distance learning format, a precursor to today's world of online learning.
The college has been making waves in higher education ever since.
Rio Salado is consistently recognized as a national leader in online learning for its innovative programs and sustainable practices.
"We look beyond traditional approaches to education while focusing on meeting the needs of today's students," Bustamante said.
Together, the members of the Rio Salado Community - the students, faculty and staff – are the Rio Waves, navigating the world of education for better future.

Infectious Disease Informatics

Infectious Disease Informatics
While all the international infectious disease surveillance systems share similar objectives, each system site varies in its system architecture, its information processing management techniques, its algorithms for detection, and each focus on different diseases. INFECTIOUS DISEASE INFORMATICS: Syndromic Surveillance for Public Health and Bio-Defense corrects these problems. The book will analyze and evaluate the outbreak modeling and detection capabilities of the existing surveillance systems from a systematic framework. Specifically, the book will meet the following critical needs in detecting infectious diseases:

It's been 8 days since Aman/Apeng and I embarked on our greatest journey-the birth of our bundle of joy; Kazim Bin Kamarul Zaman.
Everything happened so fast that I can barely remember the details.
I was one of those first time mothers-to-be who had read multiple books on pregnancy and child birth, and had come to the conclusion - to keep telling myself that it was a bearable pain, that it was for a worthy purpose. And, as I kept reminding myself( like being told by my lovely sister Kak Fuz), millions of women had given birth in the past and continue to give birth "the natural way" – they handled the pain well enough. Of course I would too!
"Yes I can do it!"
I was wide awake on the night before and can only shut my eyes at slightly past 2am.Yes, I had a sleepless night that night(chat ngn a few ppl jugak sbb taklih tdo). Surprisingly Apeng/Aman was fast asleep at 10pm although for the past one week he's been sleeping very late unlike me. Yes, your truly has been sleeping like a princess during her pregnancy.
It was 5.45am, subconsciously I heard a "POP" sound.While I try to figure out where the sound comes from, I felt like peeing but the only different was, I cant control it.I was so astounded by the rushing of fluid.
"B..I rasa my water bag broke"
"hah? ye ker? You bukan kencing ke?"
"takk..tak..I rasa water broke.."
Dgn cepatnya Aman/Apeng terus bangun dan siap2. Kami pun siap2, nasibla bag hospital mmg dah siap lama pun, tapi bukan ada bnyk brg pon nak amik lgpun rumah kami kan dekat je.Suamiku terus ketuk pintu Ummi pastu Ummi terus datang tgk aku.Bila tgk, mmg sah-sah dia kata air ketuban yang pecah. Mcm sgt laju okayy dia mengalir...camm sungai pulak :p.Pastu sbb air dah mengalir bnyk sgt, Ummi pon sediakan kain batik tuk lapik.Seryes, mmg air tu mengalir camm ..rasa panas2 camtu.Tapi tak sakit la, it just air tu camm ada lendir2 sikit kot.Bukan la mcm air masak ke hape tu.Kami terus turun lif,Aman/Apeng terus amik kereta.
Immediately I called Abang Ha& Kak Fuz.
We stopped at the Emergency Counter.The nurse wheeled me in a wheelchair to the maternity floor where midwives happened to be.She checked me and said I was only 2cm dilated… and that I had 3-4 more hours.Fuhh, dlm hati,
"3-4 jam lagi ke???mak aii..lamanya nak tunggu..tp that time tak rasa lagi sakit yg amat tu"
I just went into one of the delivery rooms, put on a gown and tried to get comfortable while my husband and Ummi were there to comfort me.
They hooked me up to the machine to monitor of the baby's heart beat and my contraction.
My husband decided to text our families and rang our emak.Later, Abg ha and K.Fuz came at 9am ++.I decided to call Diella,Leen and Hanim.Unfortunately none of them were available.So I told my husband to text them later.Mummy Noe sms-ed me:
"Zikir..doa bnyk2..Igt Allah.."
The contractions were ten minutes apart and still very bearable.
"Yes, I am in pain, but that's okay. I'm coping with it."
A back rub or a positive words of encouragement will help you calm down. Apeng/Aman comforted me and kept my mind off.I couldn't have made it without him by my side.The two things that kept me going were my doctor, who was so utterly kind and gentle with me, and my husband, who stood there holding my hand and comforting me like a real troop.
Moments later, my husband gently helped me to rub my back, do what ever he can just to make sure I was okay, surprisingly, the pain was minimal.He did everything he could with such love and uttered no complaint.
I watched TV, read book and everything that I could to keep my mind off.I've told my husband that I was so hungry ( sbb smalam mkn mihun yg sikit saja pastu pagi tu tak sarapan pon) So my husband asked the midwives whether I can have a chocolate bar just to get some energy. She came to me and said,
"You can drink water only"
Dlm hati, mak aii aku rasa nk pitam dah kt sini dia suh minum air ??Ok ok..paham diorang buat ape yang patut tapi..seryes mmg lembik sgt masa tu..Aman/Apeng tanya kalau Milo boleh ke tak, tp dia kata tu pun tak boleh sbb takut kalau jd aper2, dan perlu c-sect perut kena kosong at least 6 hrs.
" B, kalau tau mcm ni, td before dtg sini I breakfast dulu"
The contractions started to build up a bit by 11pm.The intervals between them got shorter. I tried standing up and wiggling and moving my hips, I couldn't walk about because I was hooked up to the damn machine which was monitoring my baby and I was still leaking.
Time ni dah 9cm dilated, Ya Allah,rasa jalan kt satu highway yg takda toilet pastu nk poo-poo sgt campur sembelit pastu kena tahan dulu .Yerlakan kalau 9cm mcm mana nk teran pon so, nak menahan tu..adoiiii..tak tergambar "pleasure" nyerr.Tp dlm kepala otak ni taknak any drugs pon so nak taknak kena tahan la.Pusing kanan kiri menahan sakit, lakiku pulak mmg tak habis2 duk picit-picit,berjam dia berdiri kt situ.Kesian sgt2.
Pastu ade rasa nk kencing sgt2, teruslah bgtau misi tu,
"I want to wee-wee"
"i"ll bring container for you"
"I prefer..hmm...I wanna go to the toilet"
"tak boleh..nnti u beranak kat toilet..I bawak bekas lah, u kencing sini."
Ayyo..mmg ussah sgt2.Mula2 skali boleh pastu kali kedua nak kencing tu..dah tak boleh dah, so misi tu masuk tiub tuk kencing.Ngilu jugak la rasa.
My Apeng/Aman was really positive and was really good, he was talking to me and keep asking me to take a deep breath with each contraction. I was so touched.
By the time I finally reached the crucial stage – full five fingers dilated, pretty ready to start pushing – it was almost 12pm++
I started pushing with guidance from the midwife. Very slow progress was made as I was so tired from lack of sleep and not eating properly and was emotionally a wreck and I ached.
The "bench" suddenly became shorter as the part under my backside was made to fold under, my legs were suspended up in the air with stirrups, tied to two poles that suddenly appeared from nowhere.
The doctor was ready.
I tried so hard.All of them(doctor and midwives cheered me on as I began to grasp what PUSHING was all about.
The baby still wasn't coming out.
Masa ni, yours truly dah rasa nak pitam sbb campur lapar campur rasa nk pitam.Mcm lari merentas desa tanpa makan dan minum pagi tu.Dah rasa ada burung2 pon yang terbang kat atas dahi ni.
Then again..I worked incredibly hard for almost 1 hour!!Nasib baik doctor pon tolong jugak kuarkan Kazim.
Suddenly, a "whoosh" – and then, oh what relief, when Kazim's head came out, he was awake and crying loudly.they laid him on my belly,Kazim lay there and looking up at me.
"Im sorry Kazim, Im so tired.."I whispered to him.
And then, just I seemed to be drifting off into a surreal sleep, the afterbirth pains began.After being stitched up, I really wasn't feeling like I was there at all. Everything seemed a blur and all I needed was a cup of Milo and some rice..or pasta..or nasi kerabu..or what so ever food!
I was so tired by this time, that I was actually struggling to keep my eyes open, I even asked my husband in the room not to talk to me because I wanted to sleep.
It's an unbelievable experience to see your child emerge from the womb after carrying them for nine months; literally un-believable.I've known he was in there; seen him on ultrasound and felt him kick. As my child has emerged; crying, skin wrinkled and wet and with eyes blinking in the bright lights; I've felt totally and completely overawed.
I wanted natural childbirth, and that's what I've been lucky enough to have-alhamdulillah, due to the fortunate combination of hassle-free labours and a supportive environment. It wasn't until I started to read about natural childbirth that I found out about the many advantages of letting your body do what it is designed to do.
But out he came eventually...a beautiful 3.20 kg baby boy, Alhamdulillah.My Apeng/Aman recited Azan andQamat into his ears.
I stayed at the hospital for 1 night, as usual my husband was there. Tp nak tdo mmg lerr tak boleh.Yerla my V sakit sgt2.Semua2 lah sakit.
Masa ni my V sakit giller...sampai nk wee-wee pun takut sgt.Apetah lagi nak poo-poo.So nurses ni akan dtg check dah wee-wee ke belum.Adooiii...tak sangka yerr.."sedap"jugak bersalin ni!Patutttt lerrrr ramai yg beranak kannn :p
Nonetheless, Im so thankful to Almighty-Allah for this easy delivery of a healthy baby Kazim.Syukur. Alhamdulllah.And also,thanks for all your(yes..you guys out there-friends, bloggers, families) prayers and well wishes.
Again and again, million thanks to my baby Apeng/Aman for being there for me and making the whole things easy for me.I love you very much forever and ever.
I have to admit, Im a bit tearful while writing this entry. My wish and hope, Kazim inherits my husband's best quality,Insya-Allah.
Truly, I am blessed among women!
p.s:More stories on Kazim..later!

We have a routine. All of us do. But here on Iona, we follow a weekly routine, and we are not particularly comfortable when that has to change. We can and will be flexible, in all sorts of hospitable ways, but in the end, we enjoy our routine.
On Friday morning we bid adieu to our guests of the week, and then return to our work areas for meetings, getting our house in order for the next set of guests and a little social time without the pressure of caring for guests. On Saturday afternoon, everything needs to be ship shape, as new guests will arrive, we will prepare meals, have welcoming time, worship and other guest events. Sunday is our big worship service in the morning, followed by our main meal of the day during lunch, activities, events and then an evening meal of soup, then worship. Monday and Thursday some guests will go to Staffa, to see the Fingeals cave and the puffins, while others will do other things. Tuesday is pilgrimage day, and guests will do the long or short pilgrimage, Wednesday is a day of planned events and activities, then Friday we say goodbye and start all over again. That is routine.
Routines and rituals can be important, but when they become the most important thing we need to be careful. When doing the thing becomes more important than what we are doing or who we are doing it with, we need to be careful. That's where the Pharisees got themselves in a bit of a bind. So let's hold them close, but not tightly, and our routines and rituals can continue in our thin place.

From fossil fuels to fission, growing global demand for power generation offers investment opportunities. Thermal coal is heating up and the uranium junior mining sector is set for development and a wave of consolidation. Geordie Mark, mining analyst with Haywood Securities in Vancouver, shares his thoughts in this exclusive Energy Report interview.
The Energy Report: There have been recent takeovers in the coal sector. What should investors take away from that?
TER: Chinese imports of metallurgical coal have grown along with China's steel sector. Do you see this trend slowing in the near term?

Near Middletown in Frederick County, Virginia — The American South (Mid-Atlantic)
Battle of Cedar Creek
Union Left Flank
—1864 Valley Campaign —
After Confederate defeats at Third Winchester, Fisher's Hill, and Tom's Brook, and after the Burning of the Valley, Gen. Philip H. Sheridan believed that Gen. Jubal A. Early's army no longer posed a significant threat. Following a daring night march, however, the Confederates attacked the Federal camps north of Cedar Creek in the predawn fog and darkness on October 19. Achieving complete surprise, Early's men drove Sheridan's north past Middletown. The Federals formed a defensive line, Sheridan rode south from Winchester to rally his force, and late in the afternoon counterattacked to drive the Confederates from the field.

You are standing directly behind the position that Col. Charles Russell Lowell Jr.'s Reserve Cavalry Brigade occupied at the center of the Union far left. Col. James H. Kidd's brigade was on the distant ridge visible through the clearing to the left of the barn, and Col. Thomas C. Devin's brigade was to Lowell's right. About 4 p.m., the Federals counter-attacked. Merritt's cavalry charged the infantry divisions of Gen. John Pegram and Gabriel C. Wharton and the brigade of Gen. William T. Wofford on the Confederate right flank. After repeated attempts, the Confederates gave way. Lowell, seriously wounded that morning, remained in the field and was mortally wounded. He died the next morning. By nightfall, the Union victory was complete, and Early's army was shattered.

It is seen on the Television, on the radio and in the papers nowadays about Mis sold PPI and is becoming increasingly popular with more and more people taking action and claiming back money that could be owed to them. So what is PPI and how do you know if you have been a victim of mis selling?
PPI, otherwise known as Payment Protection Insurance is sold to you when taking out a credit agreement such as a loan, mortgage or credit card to cover you should you ever become unemployed, have an accident or any medical reasons to unable you to repay instalments back but in recent days has come to many peoples attention that it is not compulsory to have PPI. You could be paying up to 30% of your loan amount in insurance and you could have in fact been mis sold PPI when taking out the credit agreement in the first place.
If you have a think about when you took out your credit agreement, do any of these few examples sound familiar?
1) At the time of loan agreement, you were told it was compulsory to have insurance.
2) You weren't informed that the policy was optional.
3) The lender didn't explain the policy or what it was used for.
4) You felt pressured that you needed the insurance even though you would more than likely never use it.
You may also not even know about PPI and whether you have it or not so to check this have a look at your statements where they should be something stating Payment insurance, Loan insurance, Protection policy or something along these lines. If your still unsure whether you have it may be worth your while giving the original lender a call and asking them to find out. Don't worry if the lender is now out of business as you still have a claim case and can do this through the financial services compensation scheme (FSCS).
Many claims can be made within the last 10 years of taking out the policy so its worth taking a look into old loans, credit cards or agreements and, if you have it take action to claim back your Mis sold PPI.

The latest announcement regarding child care centres in this province came today over the everyday din of children playing at the Grand Falls-Windsor YMCA Child Care Centre.
The Provincial Government officially launched a voluntary Operating Grant Program, an investment of $9.7 million, noted Susan Sullivan, Minister of Education and Early Childhood Development in making the announcement.
An annual operating grant will be given to eligible licensed child care centres to help offset some of the costs associated with providing child care, she explained.
The Operating Grant Program will require participating child care centres to lower their rates to the current Child Care Services Subsidy rates, a press release noted. The Provincial Government will provide an annual operating grant ranging from $780 to $3,640 per space, depending on the age of the child. This will compensate centres for their lower rates.
Parents of children at participating licensed child care centres will see fees reduced to current daily subsidy rates of $44 per day for infants (birth to under 24 months), $33 per day for toddlers (24 to under 36 months), $30 per day for three to 12 years in full day care, and $14 per day for afterschool programs (up to 12 years of age).
"By setting a rate structure in regulated child care centres, for those centres participating in our voluntary Operating Grant Program and subsidizing families with lower incomes through our Child Care Services Subsidy program, combined with existing federal and provincial benefits, our government is helping to make child care affordable for more families." Sullivan added.
CRRU's online documents database contains thousands of resources relevant to ECEC policy and practice in Canada and internationally. CRRU's website allows the user to quickly search or browse the database of documents.
Research, policy & practice materials include: scholarly research, policy studies and briefs, government and NGO reports. Child care in the news is an archive of news articles about ECEC in Canada and abroad.
Links to the full-text of materials are provided where publicly available; where access is restricted links are provided to abstracts, as well as purchase and subscription options.
The online document database is continually growing. New materials are added to the database each week and featured on the homepage as what's new online this week and child care in the news.

Hi again, if this is your first visit to my woolly blog then a very warm welcome. If you are a follower or regular visitor, then thanks for popping by again. You are always welcome back!
Anyone who knows me will be aware of my love of books and my inability to pass by an old Fair Isle garment knitting pattern and I have a great one to share with you today.
Here's the front of it.....
I found this one on a well-known online auction site and just HAD to buy it.
You know how it is!
There are three things I really love about this little leaflet.
First of all, it has those three gorgeous child's beret designs to choose from.
Secondly, there are NO CHARTS!
I know some people are great with knitting charts and even prefer them to knitted instructions, but for me a chart is a little bit like reading ancient history. It's all Greek to me!!!
And finally something that made me smile. I think this is so cute! Look at the picture below and see what they call the 'instructions' for the patterns.....
Isn't that just fab!
I've never seen knitting instructions being called 'recipes' before! But I think it's just so delightful and amusing.
On the back page of the leaflet they advertise 4 other leaflets. Here are the designs for those, plus a close up of the three beret designs.
If you'd like any information on these please email me and I will try to help you out.
I hope you're enjoying my blog posts. Please tell me if there is something in particular you would like me to write about on the subject of Shetland or Fair Isle knitting, wool and sheep.
Until next time, stay on the creative side of the street!!!
Welcome to my woolly little blog!!
Welcome to my woolly little blog!!
You are welcome to browse, comment, ask questions,
seek advice on a knitting issue and find out more about Shetland and it's world renowned wool.
Plus, some snippets and snaps from my everyday life.
So pull up a chair and sit awhile, away from the rush of the world.

A Fair Isle Recipe ( Of Sorts!)

Good morning! I'm still a little groggy, so if this post is amassed with typos you have my sincere apologies in advance.
As a pre-work snack last night, I had a warm pita with almond butter, banana, honey and cinnamon.
I took the Crispy Crunch Salad (radishes, romaine, carrots, artichokes, chick peas, hearts of palm, croutons - which I flicked out) home after work and ate it on my walk home. Classy, huh? I used about half the dressing they gave me, but the "vinaigrette" was still think. I'm going to get oil & vinegar next time.
Sweet tooth greeted me at home: vanilla swiss almond with passion fruit preserves:
I also had two truffles, but couldn't find the camera. They were yum, but maybe not worth it.
Half of a Clif Bar before soup kitchen, if you can see it in the arms of my frog, Leon:
I'm off to the soup kitchen! I'm meeting my mom afterwards to bake a treat for the Brunch. Have a great Saturday!

Have a blast today :)

I love how you ripped open the pita like that!
