With the temperatures just starting to cool and the kids busy with school and sports, it is the perfect time to start thinking about those hearty pasta dishes. There is something so soothing and comfortable about a big plate of pasta. Plus, pasta gives you energy and using whole wheat pasta adds fiber as well. This recipe using whole wheat penne and fresh tomatoes is especially delicious and healthy.
- 16 oz. box whole wheat penne pasta
- 1 jar of your favorite spaghetti or marinara sauce
- four garlic cloves, minced
- two tablespoons fresh basil
- six fresh plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped
- one pound lean ground beef
- Italian seasoning
- freshly grated Parmesan cheese
In a large saucepan, cook the pasta in rapidly boiling water until tender. Drain and return to pan.
In a large skillet, brown the ground beef. Drain the fat and return to the pan. Season with McCormick Italian Herb Seasoning Grinder according to taste. Add garlic, tomatoes, spaghetti sauce and basil. Simmer until heated through.
Add the penne pasta to the tomato sauce and top with Parmesan cheese.
Serve with garlic bread and tossed salad.
Yummy cheesy garlic bread recipe:
- one long loaf of French or Italian bread
- soft butter
- freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- minced garlic cloves
Split loaf of bread in half lengthwise. Butter each half with soft butter or margarine spread. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and garlic cloves to taste. Place bread halves on a cookie sheet and put under the broiler for a few minutes, watching carefully.
**I have also made this on plain slices of bread when that is all I have had in the house. This works out real nice for making just the amount of bread needed for a meal.

- With the recent end of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), the global community has moved towards the adoption of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that are set to be completed from 2016-2030.
- Building on the eight Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), the SDGs aim to end poverty, fight inequality, tackle climate change and protect the environment.
- VYLH-Philippines advocacies primarily respond to the Health SDG (Goal 3) particularly the prevention of newborn deaths and promotion of universal health coverage.
- In addition to this, promoting public awareness on the importance of folic acid supplementation in the prevention of neural tube defects addresses prevention of potential newborn deaths, and the nutritional needs of women in the reproductive age, at the same time.
- Meanwhile, the enactment and future implementation of the RA 10747 (Rare Diseases Act of the Philippines) will not only address the health of Filipino rare disease patients but also their inclusion to society.
Health Promotion and Advocacy Update
Series of 2016
Series of 2016
What are the SDGs?
The Sustainable Development Goals, also known as Global Goals, were adopted by world leaders at the UN Sustainable Development Summit on 25 September 2015. The 17 goals set for another fifteen years, 2030, aim to end poverty, fight inequality, tackle climate change and protect the environment. The SGDs are included in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
Moving Forward: From MDGs to SDGs
Built on the progress made by the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) or the eight anti-poverty targets that the world committed to be achieved by 2015, the SDGs have a broader sustainability agenda that go beyond the MDGs. Adopted in 2000, the MDGs were targets that tackled poverty, hunger, disease, gender inequality and access to water and sanitation.
Based from a World Health Organization release, "the 17 SDGs are broader and more ambitious than the MDGs, presenting an agenda that is relevant to all people in all countries to ensure that "no one is left behind." The new agenda requires that all three dimensions of sustainable development – economic, social and environmental – are addressed in an integrated manner".
VYLH-Philippines and Its Advocacies
The Volunteers Youth Leaders for Health – Philippines (VYLH-Philippines) is a national collaboration of youth leaders of youth organizations in universities and communities in the Philippines. This novel undertaking is part of an international effort to establish the March of Dimes - Global Network for Maternal and Infant Health (GNMIH) participated by youth counterparts in China and Lebanon linked by the common interest of volunteerism and public service, to improve birth outcomes worldwide through advocacy.
- Increasing awareness among women in their reproductive age on the significance of folic acid supplementation in the prevention of birth defects;
- Increasing public awareness in saving babies from mental retardation and death through newborn screening; and
- Lobbying public support for the urgent passage of the Rare Disease Act, an act addressing the needs of patients with rare, orphan disorders.
|Causes of 2.761 M deaths during the
neonatal period, worldwide (2013/WHO)
In 2015, promoting prematurity awareness was placed as an advocacy for consideration of the network. According to the WHO, prematurity is the leading cause of death in children under the age of 5 worldwide. In social media, materials and infographics on global and national statistics on premature births, complications and risk factors were posted and shared in time for World Prematurity Day (November 17). One of the points highlighted in the campaign is the importance of awareness in the prevention of preterm births.
Furthermore, the network has also played an active role in promoting the concern on birth defects - awareness, prevention, care and research, as it participated as an international partner of World Birth Defects Day (March 3) this 2016.
Both birth defects and preterm births contribute to more than 40 percent of neonatal deaths in 2013(WHO). The two are also within the scope of the goals and programs of GNMIH.
Both birth defects and preterm births contribute to more than 40 percent of neonatal deaths in 2013(WHO). The two are also within the scope of the goals and programs of GNMIH.
VYLH-Philippines Advocacies and the SDGs
In the MDGs, the VYLH-Philippines advocacies fall within the two health goals: MDG4 (reduce child mortality), and MDG5 (improve maternal health). While the health goals were previously placed in separate MDGs (4, 5, and 6), these goals were combined and placed in a single SDG – Goal 3: Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages. There are also some advocacies particularly the folic acid awareness campaign and rare disease advocacy that correspond to other targets aside from SDG 3.
In promoting folic acid awareness, volunteer youth leaders are also promoting the nutritional needs of women in the reproductive age and this has an impact to the well-being of their future child - a target under Goal 2: Hunger and Food Security. It is known that folic acid supplementation is the only proven neural tube defect (NTD) prevention method, to date. Neural tube defects are problems in the development of the brain and the spinal cord. Data from the FNRI-DOST have also shown that 1 out of 5 women in the Philippines is folate deficient (2008 National Nutrition Survey). This shows that public awareness on the importance of folate and folic acid is also low among Filipinos.
SDG 2 HUNGER AND FOOD SECURITY: End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture
The work done on lobbying public support for a rare disease act, its recent enactment and future implementation support SDG targets related to the welfare of persons with disability. SDGs that relate to persons with disability include Sustainable Development Goals 4, 8 and 10.
The act also recognizes the importance of a "culturally-sensitive public education and information campaign" on the nature of rare disease in helping the public understand the special needs of persons afflicted with rare diseases, as well as their right against ridicule and discrimination. Such campaign would involve the participation of concerned government agencies, professional societies and non-government organizations, including the youth (Article VI, Section 17). At present, the network has to define its new role in the rare disease advocacy.
SDG 4 QUALITY EDUCATION: Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all
SDG 8 DECENT WORK & ECONOMIC GROWTH: Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all
RA10747 has included a provision which grants "Person with Disability (PWD)" rights and benefits as defined by law (Article IV, Section 10) to persons with rare disease. Government agencies such as the DILG, DepED, DSWD and DOLE were also tasked to ensure that persons with rare disease are given the opportunity to be productive members of society and that they are given the same rights and benefits as PWDs (Article VI, Section 18).SDG 10 REDUCED INEQUALITIES: Reduce inequality within and among countries
The act also recognizes the importance of a "culturally-sensitive public education and information campaign" on the nature of rare disease in helping the public understand the special needs of persons afflicted with rare diseases, as well as their right against ridicule and discrimination. Such campaign would involve the participation of concerned government agencies, professional societies and non-government organizations, including the youth (Article VI, Section 17). At present, the network has to define its new role in the rare disease advocacy.
The Health Goal: SDG 3
"The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development heralds a new era of global public health, offering the opportunity to strive for a global development agenda of unprecedented scope and ambition." (WHO)According to the WHO, it may be considered, at first glance, that health has a less central role in the SDGs than the MDGs with just one out of the 17 SDGs set specifically for health. However, this SDG is broad with a wide spectrum covered by 13 specific targets. Moreover, almost all of the other 16 goals are directly related to health or will contribute to health indirectly." SDG 3 also reflect a new focus on noncommunicable diseases, the toll of injuries and determinants of health (such as urbanization, pollution and climate change), and the achievement of universal health coverage.
Two of the thirteen SDG 3 targets that are reflected by the VYLH-Philippines advocacies center on preventable newborn deaths and universal health coverage.
3.2 By 2030, end preventable deaths of newborns and children under 5 years of age, with all countries aiming to reduce neonatal mortality to at least as low as 12 per 1000 live births and under-5 mortality to at least as low as 25 per 1000 live births.
3.8 Achieve universal health coverage, including financial risk protection, access to quality essential health-care services and access to safe, effective, quality and affordable essential medicines and vaccines for all.

Child Mortality in the Philippines
The Philippines has reported a great decline in child mortality and high probability of meeting MDG4 - reducing the mortality rate of children under 5 by two-thirds. According to a 2014 report, both infant and under-five mortality were reported to decline to numbers close to the 2015 targets as early as 2011.
There are three periods of life monitored in early childhood mortality: neonatal (0-28 days), infant (1-11 months) and under-five (1-4 years old). The 2013 WHO Country profile for the Philippines shows that it is estimated that 47% of child mortality in the Philippines are neonatal deaths.
From all neonatal deaths, 39% were caused preterm complications, the leading cause of newborn mortality. In 2011, 11,290 deaths were attributed to preterm complications – the equivalent of 31 newborn deaths every day (UNICEF Philippines/Born Too Soon).

Countdown to 2015 MNCH)
On the other hand, 15% of neonatal deaths were associated with congenital anomalies. Congenital malformations has also been part of the top 10 leading causes of infant mortality in the past 50 years (1960-2010/DOH).
Notably, neonatal deaths in the country have remained unchanged for the past twenty years. Promoting the public's awareness on strategies and choices that would prevent or lessen preterm births and certain birth defects can certainly help in reducing child and neonatal mortality in the country.
Promoting Universal Health Coverage
While promoting newborn screening, VYLH-Philippines volunteers also promote the benefits of Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PHIC/PhilHealth) membership through the newborn care package. According to PhilHealth, the Newborn Care Package which includes NBS and Newborn Hearing Screening tests at a package rate of P1750 ensures the well-being and survival of babies, particularly to babies with inborn errors of metabolism.
VYLH volunteers also inform the public on the existing PhilHealth coverage for newborn screening which is now offered in two options: basic and expanded. While the package currently completely covers the fee for the basic 6-test panel of disorders amounting to 550 pesos, parents who opt for the expanded test covering 28 disorders (including the basic panel) would shoulder the remaining amount. It is hoped that in the future, PhilHealth coverage will include expanded newborn screening. Such change will give an equal opportunity for the expanded test to every Filipino child.
Aside from NBS promotion, the recently enacted Rare Disease act mentions the provision of a basic benefit package from PhilHealth, which shall be provided in accordance with its guidelines. Aside from this, medical assistance to rare disease patients would also be appropriated from the revenues of Sin Tax Reform Act (RA10351) (Article VII, Section 21). Fiscal incentives such as exemptions to taxes and customs duties will also be given to donations for the purchase and importation of orphan drugs or orphan products for the sole use of rare disease patients, as certified by the FDA (Article VII, Section 22).
These mechanisms supporting the health needs of rare disease patients support what Senator Pia Cayetano mentioned during her sponsorship speech of the bill in the Senate - including the rare disease sector in public health policy will promote universal health care by making sure that nobody is left behind.
It is undeniable that the state of health of a nation and its people is a major consideration, contributor and beneficiary of sustainable development policies such that social, economic and environmental factors have an impact on health, and in turn benefit from a healthy population. Aside from SDG 3 and its specific targets, other SDG targets can directly impact health. In this review, VYLH-Philippines and its advocacies were identified to respond to six specific targets under five goals: Goal 2, 3, 4, 8 and 10.
The WHO has also noted that more than saving lives in developing countries as previously covered by the MDGs, the SDGs are involved in creating healthier societies and promoting the well-being of mankind. Likewise, it is also important to know that the Global Goals speak about and fight for equity by addressing the needs of women, children, the poorest and most disadvantageous groups. In terms of the VYLH-Philippines advocacies, these groups would include the unborn, newborns, and rare disease patients and their families.
Through the individual, humble, and collective efforts of volunteer youth leaders (VYLs) on the fulfillment of the network's advocacies, the VYLH-Philippines, as a network, will continuously aim to remain true to its mission of empowering the youth for health, and providing service that would advance the SGDs in the Philippines to its capabilities. #RPascual

National Museum of History, Spanish Museo Nacional De Historia, in Mexico City, an offshoot of the National Museum of Anthropology (founded 1825). In 1940 the National Historical Museum became a separate institution specializing in Mexican history from the Spanish conquest in the 1500s to the promulgation of the constitution of 1917. The museum moved to Chapultepec Castle, Mexico City, in 1941, opening in 1944.
By the late 20th century, the museum housed more than 150,000 items of clothing, documents, flags, jewelry, weapons, and other objects relating to Mexico's social and cultural history. Among its holdings were a battle standard used by the conquistador Hernán Cortés and an 18th-century sculpture, "Virgin with Child," attributed to the artist Luisa Roldán, who was Spanish royal sculptor to King Charles II.

Canesta Motion-control Remote Control
Sure, the motion control for the Wii is a huge success, and Microsoft's Xbox is experimenting with Project Natal. I have even heard that PS3 has been wanting to get in on this motion control action.
But there is a lot of uses for motion control that do not involve gaming, and a company called Canesta (not to be confused with the popular card game canasta) is developing motion-control for those who want to channel surf.
There is a demonstration video of this after the jump, and it shows a man who is frustrated with playing with the arrows on his TV menu. He then chucks his remote control and gets his hands involved.
With one flick of the wrist, the screen becomes a vast field of individual TV channel logos. All the user then does is wave in order to sift through them and make a motion when the choice has been made.
At first, I thought the guy in the vid was using the remote control as a motion controller to flick through channels, and then I noticed that he was looking angry. I couldn't help but think: "Canesta, you really need to show your users happy when using your product". I didn't realize that the sales pitch had yet to be made. Whoops.
Even though this tech may never be perfected and live in eternal vaporware, I can't help but applaud at what Canesta is trying to do here. If nothing else, you don't have to worry about losing your remote anymore.

Firstly, we got back from Berlin about three weeks ago, so apologies if you have been on tenterhooks waiting for a blow-by-blow account of what we got up to. Here's some quick highlights for you! We stayed at an amazing place in the Neukölln area of the city. It's called Huettenpalast and is, basically, a big room full of vintage caravans and little cabins. We stayed in the Alter Palast, which means Old Palace if you're talking in German. Apparently. Here's a photo of it:
We did loads of touristy things, like hanging out with giant statues of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, casting our eye over Soviet architecture, eating amazing Currywurst, devouring traditional German stodge, cycling around the park and getting told off for asking for too many postage stamps in a souvenir shop.
We went to R.S.V.P, which is an amazing little stationery shop just outside the city centre. We went to the Museum of Things, which was pretty great. Row after row of cabinets of collections of everyday objects that, for some reason, was absolutely fascinating. If only we'd know about it when we were putting together the Collecting issue of the zine!
We'd read, in various places, about Spree Park, an abandoned theme park on the edge of the city. You can sometimes go on guided tours there, but sadly there weren't any running while we were in town. Some people off of the internet suggest climbing over the fence so that you can get a closer look, but we decided against that. We like the idea of urban exploration, but the prospect of being chased by German police/German Shepherd dogs/German security wasn't one we were particularly keen on. Instead we had a walk around the perimeter, where we got a fairly good view.
We did loads of other stuff that we will probably document in the zine when we get around to making it. You should definitely go to Berlin if you get the chance!
While we have your attention, we will be at the Victoria Baths Zine Fair on Sunday May 5th, so come and have a look at our stall! We're sharing with the supremely talented Stef Bradley again, so bring loads of cash. We're launching the new issue of our zine on Sunday too, which is all about food. Ace. Also, remember to come to the Internet Forever + Her Parents gig we're putting on at the end of May. It will be fun.
See yer!

Summerland By Michael Chabon An Excellent BookReviewing: Miramax Paperback | Rating:
Summerland by Michael Chanbon is a long but engaging novel about a boy who hates baseball. I read this book with my 6th grade students and they loved this book! It is definately a long book at just over 500 pages, but the journey Chanbon takes the reader on is one that will remain in your memory for years to come.
This book is high on fantasy, magic, and learning about one's true strength's as a person. Ethan, the main character, is a boy who hates baseball. He lives with his father, a scientist, on Clam Island off the east coast.
This book took my class places they never new existed and provide lots of wonderful dicussion topics for my middle school class. The only reason this book does not get a 5 from me is because the story is a bit drawn out. Overall, a excellent book for kids and adults who enjoy reading high fantasy novels.

Tracing Aristotles tragical protagonist model in baron Lear and A Streetcar Named Desire: Aristotle defines tragedy as a hammer of drama which imitates noble people through artistically raise language and through pitiable and fearful chances. correspond to Aristotle, tragedy involves several aspects that eventually lead to abreaction, an emotional purgatorial of the audience. most of these aspects include pity, fear, reversal and recognition. Reversal of flock (peripeteia) is an incident in which the tragic hero undergoes a reversal of fortune to the opposite tell of affairs (Section 11). Recognition (anagnorisis) travel bys when the hero undergoes a reposition from ignorance to knowledge and brings about a state of friendship or one of hostility in the tragic figure (Section 11). These stages occur simultaneously in a mixed plot is severalise to create feelings of pity and fear with catharsis as the chief(prenominal) goal. Both William Shakespeare and Tennessee W illiams present tragic heroes within their respective(prenominal) plays, pansy Lear and A Streetcar Named Desire; however, while Shakespeare accomplishes this by pursual Aristotles tragic model rather closely, Williams adapts Aristotles model to better shimmy a 20th century audience. Both tragic heroes, King Lear and Blanche DuBois, wee-wee tragic flaws as defined by Aristotle.
match to Aristotle, all tragic hero is a person who is uncomplete arrant(a) in virtue or justice (Section 13). Shakespeare describes Lears flaw as pride. This flaw is evident when Lear informs his daughters he will award the largest generosity (King Lear 1.1.57) to the daughter that professes his love for h im in the best possible way. In other words,! Lear is looking for ways to feed his pride. As Aristotle said, this tragic flaw leads to the downfall of the hero.

CPG Sec. 110.200 Export of FDA Regulated Products from U.S. Foreign Trade Zones
From time to time industry inquires whether regulated products can be manufactured in a Foreign Trade Zone (Free Trade Zone) and exported without meeting the requirements of the laws and regulations administered by the Food and Drug Administration.
Foreign Trade Zones are provided in the United States by the U. S. Customs Service for the trade to hold or otherwise manipulate goods for an unlimited period of time awaiting a favorable market in the U. S. or nearby countries without being subject to customs entry, payment of duty, tax, or bond. The location of an establishment in a Foreign Trade Zone has absolutely no bearing on the jurisdiction of the Food and Drug Administration or the applicability of the laws it administers.
For the purposes of the laws enforced by the FDA, Foreign Trade Zones are part of the United States and the movement of regulated products into or out of such zones, including export, constitutes interstate commerce. Therefore, regulated products in Foreign Trade Zones must comply with those laws that come within the purview of FDA.

A child can switch from a car seat to a booster seat at age 4 if he weighs at least 40 pounds, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety. The department recommends the use of a booster seat with shoulder belt and adult lap belt.
Following the 2013 child safety national best practice recommendations, booster seats must be used until children comfortably can use adult safety belts, reports the Texas Department of Public Safety. This is usually at 10 to 12 years old, at a minimum height of 4 feet 9 inches. Children must be properly restrained and ride only in the back seat until age 13.

At Andalusia Farm in Milledgeville, Flannery O'Connor wrote landmark works of fiction that some label "Southern gothic." In such a place, folks just naturally find a ghost around every corner. This Sunday morning, we asked the Andalusia Foundation's executive director, Elizabeth Wylie, to tell us what kind of phantasmal activity she's heard tell of around the farm.
"The daun-kee's day-ud."
That's what the fellow who told me the story said. He said that's how he replied when a hunter and his son had approached and asked to see the donkey they had heard braying on the old dairy farm. But Flossie the donkey (who was really a hinny, the product of a male horse and female donkey) had unceremoniously died one day, legs up in the field. Lest the ladies club that was about to arrive be greeted by the poor dead thing, Flossie was quickly covered with a tarp.
While thoughtful and deliberate plans were being made for her interment, Flossie lay under there until buzzards started to circle above. Then with ceremony (and a front-end loader) she was laid to rest. This hinny was loved. Her life was tough for a while when the farm closed and began to fray and fewer caretakers were taking care. But Flossie was rescued along with the place where Flannery O'Connor came home to live with her mother at age 25, the place where her peacocks honked and ruined her mother's garden beds, the place where she finished all her published work, the place visited by thousands from around the world.
Once saved, Flossie enjoyed daily company and a comfy barn. She gave pleasure to many while developing a reputation as a scamp with a taste for freedom. Bonds slipped, Flossie would roam over the hundreds of acres of a landscape of memory and inspiration, while a cast of characters (lawyers, kids and good country people) chased her down.
"Thang is," the hunter told the fellow, his eyes grew big as saucers, "we still hear the daun-kee in the woods." He shuddered as he told the tale. "I'm gittin' goose pimples just a-talkin' about it!" The hunter went on to tell how he was out by the far back pasture sitting up in the blind — apparently his hunting sometimes involves lots of sitting around in elevated perches waiting for deer and reading Flannery O'Connor stories on his tablet — when he saw a big buck come into the clearing.
"That boy stood there proud as can be with a huge rack when, I kid you not, a dadburn bird landed right thar, on the antler. I thought that was strange and I sat right up."
He said he has hunted thousands of acres since he was 12 years old and had never seen a bird land on a deer's antler. But that wasn't all. The Hunter continued, "I'm telling you there are bird spirits here; this place is special. After that one bird, came another and another and another until the rack was full and then they landed on the deer's back."
A few months later, I answered the office phone at the farm. It had been ringing off the hook as I first arrived in the morning. It was the back neighbor, a feisty older woman with a gun, an ATV and a respect for history and preservation. She also makes a tasty cobbler from the old blackberry bushes that sit among the heritage boxwoods on the former plantation she calls home. Out hunting that morning, she had come across a big bird.
"Did y'all lose a peacock, a white one?"
I had seen gorgeous videos on YouTube of albino peacocks shimmering as they shimmy and was mesmerized, but no, we did not have any albino peacock, nor did we have one that was lost. I asked the neighbor if perhaps she might be seeing things, that perhaps it might be a ghost. A practical, no-nonsense sort, she said while the thought was amusing and somehow appropriate, it was most definitely a real big white bird.
The following day, I was out walking and thinking and looking at the farm. A perk of my job, I often just wander around the 500 or so acres to check on the property and soak up the beautiful light and landscape. I came around a bend in the path and saw pearly feathers flutter and fly off into the woods. It was so startling, I barely caught a glimpse, but it was most definitely a real big white bird.
The day after that, the fellows who fell trees were out to help clear away a little nature that was pushing over some of the old farm buildings. Time's imprint is strong on the farm's historic fabric and vestigial plantings of fig trees and white irises, the old scuppernongs and the twisted cedars, abused by years of roosting peafowl (up to 50 ran free on the property when Flannery lived here). Indeed, the farm is one big conversation involving landscape and light, history and literature, people and equipment, and the spirits of cows, horses, donkeys and birds, lots of birds.
Sure enough, the tree men came running up the hill, "We saw it. We saw it." One of the two, a fearless woodsman with no front teeth, a fondness for orphaned baby squirrels, and a shy and kind demeanor, had chased after and almost caught it before it wriggled away. He said it was most definitely a real big white bird.
Last month, a visitor ran into the office, phone in hand and shoved the screen before my eyes. "Do you see that?" I struggled to see what she wanted me to see, a face in the varnish of the piano, the face of the author. She was like so many visitors to the farm. Some hope to catch something of the artist they admire and experience the place that inspired great writing.
That is why they come to the farm, starry-eyed and expectant, searching for a muse or just simple understanding of the time and context that produced the kind of hilarious and horrifying, thoughtful and transformative writing that Flannery gave to the world.
The visitor's sister was standing there and said, "I'm psychic, and she was just talking to me. She doesn't like all the attention. I told her you respect her, and her work and she should help you."

Crosskennan Lane Animal Sanctuary (CLAS) is asking its supporters to take a stand against puppy farming in Northern Ireland and Great Britain.
The charity, which opened in 1996, was initially set up as a primarily equine charity.
However, due to increasing numbers of dogs needing help it also now rehomes large numbers of dogs and cats.
Following a BBC Scotland investigation, a CLAS spokesperson commented: "We have seen some truly stomach-churning and heart-breaking sights in our almost two decades of operation and have always helped these animals where we could.
"We now need to focus on the root cause of the problem and that is the careless breeding highlighted by the BBC programme."
The charity is asking its supporters to sign the petition "End puppy farming in Northern Ireland" at change.org. and to make the Justice and Agriculture Ministers aware of public opposition to the practice.
It is also asking supporters to make a small, regular contribution to its running costs for the care of rescued puppies and dogs.
The CLAS charity is funded solely by donations from the public and without this support it says it could no longer rescue animals in distress. To donate, visit the Crosskennan Lane Animal Sanctuary page at justgiving.com

Whenever you are transferring from one place to another, you might decide to do all of the packing. However, do you want to really do the moving too?
Well, if you really want to do it, here are some things you need to do. First, you would need to rent a truck if you don't have any. You would also need some 2-wheeler handcarts and several pads to secure your things. Next, you will need to hire friends to help you and likely pay them.
You might want to compare that to the price you're going to pay if you hire Chesterfield moving company.
However, just like any businesses, the moving industry still has dishonest companies. These companies will offer you a low price to take the work, and then ask you a bigger price before they would unload your stuff. Do not employ a moving company without knowing them properly.
Examine the firm with the American Moving and Storage Association. This association has "ProMover" certification program. You should be aware of any firms that don't have any certification of "ProMover".
Ask for the United States Department of Transportation registration number of the company. Then, you could search the complaint history of a mover that is registered federally at https://protectyourmove.gov.
If you do not know what services the firm is giving at what price, you might have a bad experience even when you are hiring an honest and legit moving company. Before hiring a moving company, here are some questions you need to ask:
Ask for the terms of insurance for your move. Typically, you would buy an insurance option for items lost or damaged in transport. Ask if the insurance will cover the complete value of your stuff.
Ask if the quote they have given you is only an estimate or if it is a fix quote.
Ask for hidden fees. Oftentimes, moving firms work from a tariff. This registers items for which you can be charged, like if there are involved stairs.
Ask the company how long have they been in the moving industry. The longer they are in business, the better.
Ask if the moving crew is hired by the firm, casual workers, or temporary hires.
Also, ask for the copy of the valuation coverage, liability insurance, and bill of lading policy of the mover. All movers should accept liability for the goods' value they transport. "Released Value" is a choice that will cost you nothing. However, it only offers minimal security, requiring the company to cover any damages at $.60 per pound, per article.
Ask for the timetable for conducting the move. This should include the packing and date of arrival. Ask the company if they conduct the work or move as a household goods broker. Keep in mind that a broker cannot represent himself as a mover, does not have trucks and normally has zero power to offer a quote on behalf of the certain mover.

Greener Gadgets 2009: THE WINNERS!
It was a roller-coaster ride of a panel discussion at the Live Greener Gadgets Design Competition Judging at the close of Friday's Greener Gadgets Conference in New York City. After a 10-minute overview of some of the notable entries by moderator Allan Chochinov from Core77, the judges--Jeff Kapec of Tanaka Kapec Design Group, Jill Fehrenbacher of Inhabitat, and Saul Griffith of Makani Power--toured the audience through 13 of their favorite projects before deliberating to get things down to the Top 3 (In pre-judging sessions, they were unable to decide on a set of TOP 10). It was a difficult journey, with the audience ultimately chiming in with shout outs, criticisms, defenses, philosophical meanderings, and all the good stuff you would expect from a wonderful, engaged audience. Thanks for all the participation!
The top 13 projects debated were:
Wattblocks, submitted by frog Design Bware Water Meter, submitted by Ariel Drach Fastonauts, submitted by Sara Paculdo Indoor Drying Rack, submitted by Rob Podell Tweet-a-Watt, submitted by Limor Fried, Adafruit Industries & Phillip Torrone, MAKE magazine Social Environmental Station (Environmental Traffic Light), submitted by Hernando Barragan Power-Hog, submitted by Mathieu Zastawny, Mansour Ourasanah, Tom Dooley, Peter Byar, Elysa Soffer, Mathieu Turpault Thermal Torch, submitted by Gunnar Kramp Standby Monsters, submitted by Rachel Turner RITI Printer, submitted by Jeon Hwan Ju Recompute, submitted by Brenden Macaluso Blight, submitted by Vincent Gerkens Laundry POD, submitted by RKS Design Team
Ultimately it came down a Final Four: Power-Hog, Tweet-a-Watt, Indoor Drying Rack, and Laundry POD. The judges felt compelled to reward something "that wasn't electronic," and were charmed by the Shaker-simplicity of the Drying Rack. The Power-Hog seemed universally beloved, with audience members shouting out precedents for the pay-as-you-draw systems in England and Scandinavia. Tweet-a-Watt was a nice reminder of last year's winner--the D.I.Y. Enerjar--and Laundry POD also appealed to an anti-electronic sentiment.
Once the judges were decided on the four, the decision was turned it over to the audience, who, with the help of Allan's clap-o-meter iphone app WideNoise, delivered their ultimate verdict:
1st Place Winner: US$3000: Tweet-a-Watt, A twittering power meter Submitted by Limor Fried, Adafruit Industries & Phillip Torrone, MAKE magazine (Limor and Phillip have chosen to donate their prize to Engineers Without Borders.)
2nd Place Winner: US$2000: Power-Hog Submitted by Mathieu Zastawny, Mansour Ourasanah, Tom Dooley, Peter Byar, Elysa Soffer, Mathieu Turpault
3rd Place Winner: US$1000: Indoor Drying Rack Submitted by Rob Podell
Again, the judges felt very positively toward the Laundry POD, and although there's no cash prize, we'll call it a "runner-up":
4th Place Winner: Laundry POD Submitted by RKS Design Team
Congratulations to all the winners, and a big thank you to everyone who participated in the competition. Look for more pictures and videos soon, and if you haven't yet checked out the gallery, take a look through the TOP 50 Greener Gadgets!

I found the lab, blueprints and wife's body downstairs. Now I am stuck. I think I should get to the balcony with chair somehow... But how?
I am also having troubles with framerates. The mission really stutters on my year-old system (I have absolutely no problems with newest games). I can't imagine playing some bigger TDM mission. Strange. St. Lucia was running very good.
bukary, you'll need to adjust your soundcard volume like I did. Then do slight tweak in game to get it just right.
I needed to go in/out of game a few times to get it just right, but it went from untolerable to near perfect, so worth a few minutes to tweak.
Also, if you were fine in Saint Lucia this should be better, as optimizing on everything was done.
It will depend mission to mission though. Midnight in Murkbell crashed my comp in beta enough I dropped as a tester and was always kindof laggy where other FM's weren't.
So can't speak on this mission particularly but optimizing missions could be different author to author, mission to mission. You should try the other missions and see if they run better.
I had crashes on this mission with the catalyst AI set to Off. When I set it to Low there were no crashes, but I got the spinning sky issue.
Anyway it was a good mission. Liked how the tension builds up, and the warehouse part was quite creepy. Good thing the no kill objective was optional - I failed it, because I just couldn't let that bastard in the warehouse live.
Benson's wall and thought there must be another way. maybe it's just getting used to the new engine, I didn't think I could mantle over the fence at the beginning or jump from Harlan's house to the stone doorway, either.
every corpse and hitting them, just to be sure it wasn't the murderer playing possum!
OK. Beat this. Very nice. A bit sparse at points; almost looked unlived in. But, since I played this right after Saturnine's brilliant FM... maybe I was spoilt.
That murderer wasn't much of a swordsman. Well, not after a mean gash when his back was turned. (I approach most doors from the side, so he busted the door open but didn't see me. Ha! Natural inclination saves me again.)
I have a question though. People mention Soren's wife's body. Where is this? i found a woman's body in the warehouse, but no note and certainly the ambiguity as to who killed her wouldn't be there even if there were. I found the blueprints in the lab then went out the window. Nary a wife's corpse to be seen. Just her note that she's going to the warehouse.
Also, it seems women in dresses in the Dark Mod don't wear underwear.
You didn't go down the stairs from the lab, then.
Yes, it only works one way (going down). It's not much use to lock the wife out if she has the same key. Yes, I realize that's a little convoluted, but the story kind of put it together for me.
My oh my this Dark Mod looks good from the shots I've seen. In folks experience is it worth getting hold of a copy of Doom 3 to play it ? If so I'll look out for a second hand copy, I've seen 'em on Amazon.
Where can i get dark mode?
You can find links to download it from www.thedarkmod.com
I believe others are hosting it elsewhere, but I don't have the links at hand.
Thanks demagogue. I had fun with this mission. I won't say much for now because I'm about to play it a second time. The first time I went KO-crazy, this time I'm gonna try something approaching a ghost style. I'm not sure how far I'll get with that, considering the optional objective with Harlan, but I'll give it a go.
I'll make some more comments later, but the short version is: fun & atmospheric mission, well-balanced challenge, I enjoyed playing it, thanks for making it.
Yay, I found the gas arrow!

I also would like to play this FM, but I can´t get it to play with Darkloader.
Normally I DL a mission and put it in my Thief downloads folder, which opens with Darkloader. Normally I find the zip file there, but now I don´t!
In my sources I can see that it´s there, but it doesn´t show.
Any suggestions Taffers
Gloria Creep
There're angels who playThief and angels who don't ........ both go to heaven ............
Dare to join .............
Gloria, this is a Dark Mod FM.
(I wrote that in the title; sorry if it's confusing.)
You can only play it with the game Doom 3, along with installing the Dark Mod.
You can't play it through Dark Loader or Thief2.
I had a great time playing this FM. I think it is the best TDM offering to date. Thanks demagogue. I ghosted it but came up 15 short of loot. I'll continue tomorrow.
EDIT: found the 15 with help from piln
Here is the ghost report.
I am curious about a couple of things.
What is the image you see when loading the mission? I don't know where that is or what is its relevance. Also,
Is it possible to move the bookcase in Damuddy's office, behind which is a door you can blind pick?
Last edited by smithpd; 7th Nov 2009 at 15:14.
Wow. I never spotted that safe behind the bookcase. The switch to move the bookcase is at floor level by the foot of the small table with Benson's letter on it (far left corner of the room, as viewed when you enter). I'll make this a separate spoiler in case you don't want to know what's inside: the safe contains 4 coin stacks, a bracelet and a gemstone. Everything you need for 100% might be in the safe.
Strange occurrence: as I was climbing & searching all over the room, I manged to make the globe disappear by jumping on top of it
Anyway, thanks for the tip - that got me to 100% loot; I finished with a stealth score of 9, and the dropped point appeared to be from a guard hearing me open the warehouse door (I myself was stationary and in total darkness inside the warehouse). This is after my final quicksave, and I didn't repeat it when I reloaded to go explore Damuddy's office - so I think it's safe to say 10 is possible, but I am going to actually do it just to make sure This is still without completing the optional Harlan objective, though.
A couple of things I still wonder about:
What does the snail in the coffin mean?Forget both those questions, that's me being a dunce, I went back and read Mrs' Soren's letter - probably the first readable I found - and it's perfectly clear. Can anything be done with the snail though? I returned it to the child's cot
Why is there music coming from the coffin? It makes me think of Soren's child's room, but I can't remember if it's the same tune.
Is it possible to complete the Harlan objective without KOing anyone?
Is there any way to supply evidence? On my first play through, I dropped Soren's diary on the chair that Harlan had been tied to, in case there was a hidden objective or something. I've also tried bringing unconcious Crattick to the room.
Oh yeah:
That's the front of the warehouse. I guess it's like a big freight door or something, but I don't think it can be opened.Originally Posted by smithpd

Glad you liked it Peter, its one of my favorites to date as well. This is only the beginning for TDM! :-)
Thanks, piln for pointing me to the switch. There was a small item remaining in there that was too far away to blind frob. So that makes Perfect Thief with a little help from you.
As for that image, that is the only minor complaint I have about this mission, demagogue. It is blurred and not very interesting, IMO. I must have had to look at that image 50 times while ghosting. If it were my design (and it isn't, of course), I might have used a shot from a rooftop, which would give players motivation to explore further, or maybe Soren's mushroom tank, which would indicate that there are mysterious places to find.
Anyway, thanks again for a very fun and well designed mission.

Friday afternoon, Diane Sánchez moderated a local panel discussion about building a successful technology hub, but other leaders participated through video conferencing, discussing their experiences and lessons learned in the United Kingdom, France and Mexico. The BritWeek Miami eMerge Americas Transatlantic Tech Bash capped off a busy week of speaking engagements and planning meetings for Sánchez, who has for the past year been traveling throughout South Florida, around the Americas and beyond, meeting with corporate executives, government leaders and leading entrepreneurs in the technology industry.
It's all part of building partnerships in a giant initiative called eMerge Americas. Sánchez is CEO of the Technology Foundation of the Americas, the organization founded by tech entrepreneur and visionary Manny Medina to produce the eMerge Americas Techweek conference and spark a movement to establish a technology hub of the Americas in South Florida.
"eMerge Americas is not just an event. It's a movement that will transform Miami," said Sánchez, whose career as a technology executive spans 30 years. "I can honestly say that we are transforming thinking, in the way we see ourselves and the way the world sees Miami... I think people are starting to realize how much opportunity there is for our community and the Americas region if we work together."
The team has been working nonstop to produce and promote eMerge Americas Techweek, coming May 2-6. The conference and anciliary events will bring together industry experts, entrepreneurs and policy makers from around the Americas and world as well as movers and shakers from within South Florida's technology, government and business communities. Nearly 100 speakers have already been confirmed. A mayoral summit, hackathon, Americas-wide entrepreneur pitch contest, a Smart City Expo, mobile summit, student robotics competition and plenty of parties are also planned. "We have been overwhelmed by the amount of interest from around the world," Medina told the Tech Bash crowd on Friday.
Most of the events will take place at the Miami Beach Convention Center. Tickets, which begin at $55 for the Expo and $195 for the Summit package with significant early-bird discounts, are selling on emergeamericas.org.
We talked to Sánchez about plans for eMerge, the mission, and her views on how the movement to build a tech hub is progressing.
Q. How will eMerge Americas Techweek differ from other tech conferences?
A. eMerge Americas Techweek is truly embracing the six relevant industry sectors — healthcare, finance, education, government, media/entertainment and logistics/trade — to promote technology and establish centers of excellence in Miami in collaboration with the region. This conference will also celebrate innovation and technology and serve to unite a region.
Q. In your opinion, what are the three hottest topics on the agenda?
A. 1. The excitement around entrepreneurship in Miami and Latin America and the recent activity and investment in this area, 2. the awakening of the gaming industry coming on shore in Miami, and 3. the opportunity that presents itself to establish Centers of Excellence for healthcare and entertainment in Miami.
Q. Who are a couple of the speakers not to be missed, and why?
A. Richard Florida, Atlantic — he's dynamic and will set the stage for the transformation of a community; Mary Galligan, former head of the Secret Service — an excellent speaker, and focus on cyber security is huge today in the world; Jeff Rosanthal — motivational in building a community of entrepreneurs whose spirit and excitement are felt in the industry today!
Q. Is sponsor support where you hoped it would be?
A. Yes, the sponsors have been fabulous. We targeted the anchor customers of all of the six sectors to include healthcare, finance, education, government, media/entertainment and logistics/trade and have had phenomenal response. They are not only sponsoring the event but extremely engaged and committed to the movement in every capacity.
Q. Besides financial support, what do these partnerships bring to the table?
A. The partnerships that we have engage all of the industry and civic leaders, technology partners who are relevant to the industries, consultants and analysts, incubators, accelerators, financial institutions, community organizations ... They provide a vote of confidence but also a commitment to stay the course in establishing Miami as The Technology Hub of the Americas and support the movement.
Q. How have you involved the tri-county community in its formation?
A. All of the EDOs [Beacon Council, Greater Fort Lauderdale Alliance and the Business Development Board of Palm Beach County] are VERY much involved. The associations include the chambers, SFTA, Internet Coast, CIO Council, all of the universities, incubators/accelerators, and the private sector and public sector. This is becoming truly a community initiative.
Q. How can the local community still get involved going forward?
A. Sign up to register to participate in all of the events we will be hosting, and engage in your industry to better understand the impact that technology will have to your business and the community.
Q. Tell me about how a few of the countries in Latin America are participating.
A. Mexico, Colombia and Guatemala, for example, will be bringing some of their mayors, thought leaders, enterprises and entrepreneurs to participate.
Q. And beyond Latin America?
A. Taiwan, Israel, Spain, UK, Canada are all participating as well. Those are the only ones we invited as allies this first year with a focus on Latin America and Caribbean working with the intent to operate in South Florida and Latin America.
Q. What's been the biggest surprise, good or bad, in the planning of eMerge?
A. The organic nature of eMerge in how it has grown and been received by so many people. The private sector at the highest level across all sectors and the public sector have been overwhelming responsive and supportive. On the other side, every day, I again am reminded how much we have to build awareness in our community of innovation and technology and how it impacts this community and its future.
Q. What are a couple of the latest news developments with the conference itself?
A. The fact that Google, Facebook, Amazon are extremely interested in what we are doing and committed to working with us and several of the other new entrants and industry leaders. The excitement in STEM TECH and rallying the community to sponsor the STEM TECH Olympiad.
Q. Tell me about the STEM TECH Olympiad.
A. This is very exciting. The STEM TECH Olympiad will give students from elementary through college an opportunity to showcase their skills in science, tech, engineering and math — and it will be fun! It will include a LEGO League Challenge, a Battling Robots contest, a video game programing competition, a "green design" challenge and many other events.
Q. Answer this question: The eMerge conference will be a success if . . .
A. ... we succeed in creating an ecosystem, engage both the private and public sectors, and gain acceptance from the countries that in fact Miami is the Technology Hub of the Americas and we can through collaboration build a technology corridor in the Americas.
Q. What's one thing that may surprise people about eMerge Americas?
A. How the movement has energized our community for what this can become and how much of an economic stimulus this can provide. People outside of Miami get it.
Q. And inside Miami?
A. They are starting to get it. They don't all understand how accessible technology is to enhance their lives, careers and industries... Our job is to build awareness.
Q. What is the biggest challenge that you see in eMerge Americas?
A. Overcoming the balkanization of the three counties and achieving a higher degree of concerted action aimed toward the goal of eMerge Americas.
Q. You have said this isn't a local play, it's a global play. What do you mean by that?
A. Miami as the Gateway to the Americas is a global city that has significant impact in Latin America, Europe, and the USA in commerce and foreign policy. We can help take a leadership role to set standards and policy on technology that has the potential to impact key industries and economies in the countries. For example, cyber security. This is an issue for everyone in the region — how to address cyber terrorism. We as a country can set up standards and get the industry to support it. And it can be done from Miami.
Q. What is the ultimate goal of the Technology Foundation of the Americas?
A. To become the catalyst in the transformation of Miami as The Technology Hub of the Americas and to promote collaboration in the region driving best practices that can evolve into a cohesive strategy to transform our region and communities.
Q. Once the conference is over, how do we as a community keep the movement going?
A. The summits represent the six industries relevant to South Florida, and we have top level executives and thought leaders who today lead these industries on our advisory boards that will carry this forward.
Q. If you could add one ingredient to the South Florida tech community right now to strengthen it, what would it be?
A. A stronger educational system.
Q. OK, you can have two more ingredients. What would they be?
A. Venture capital and the infrastructure investment to support a technology hub in South Florida.
Q. In the past, South Florida's tech community has tended to be siloed, particularly in terms of tri-county regionalization. Do you think it still is or have you seen progress on that front?
A. Yes and no! I do think that we are still siloed but the change now is that people realize very quickly that this community is advantaged by working as one and is viewed as one outside of South Florida. There is a real interest to collaborate.
Q. How does South Florida's emerging tech community compare to the experience of some of the others you have worked in, like Austin?
A. I think that we are definitely on to something big. I have lived in SFO and Austin enough to see the transition in those community from the inception. We have not yet created our own tech culture unique to Miami, but that, too, will come.
Q. What is a typical day for you like these days?
A. I literally work 18-20 hour days working with industry and thought leaders to formulate a strategy for the sectors and engaging with the key stakeholders to build on the momentum.
Q. What's a perfect day?
A. A perfect day is when we are able to secure a partner that truly resonates with our vision.

Which means delighting or shocking the public and causing a wee ruckus ... yes, this was today's outfit.
The delicious pin-striped jacket was a gift from Toronto-based artist and mistress of all things dandy, Georgie of Retro G Couture.
She makes top hats, tail and bustle coats and snazzy fitted jackets ... and she's just wrapped up a show touring with the Canadian National Exhibition.
You can check out pics of the amazing outfits she dressed carni performers in at Dickensian Dandy.
Yesterday a parcel of joy turned up from the delightful Georgie and in the true spirit of a travelling carni-gal, I simply had to put an outfit together today in her honour.
I nearly passed out in ecstasy when I unwrapped this beautiful cotton jacket with its wee bustle, gorgeous patches and ribbon trims.
I snaffled the patent leather Doc Marten boots for a bargainous $68 in a Solestruck spot sale where I also scored some JC's for a song.
Doc Marten eight-hole boots go for around $200 here in Brisbane.
Oh and free postage from the US to Australia is not to be sneezed at either!
As for the hot pants, GAH ... they're so soft, frilly, shiny and oh I dunno ... fabularse!!!
Judging by some of the comments and looks this outfit garnered today, I'd say I scored 100% for sparking outrage and recommend sensitive types start wearing shock absorbers or dark glasses.
Careful now ... down with this sort of thing!

Recently, the Milam County Genealogical Society announced it is now collecting copies of birth, death and marriage entries from old Milam County Family Bibles for publication. This project will take in Bibles from the areas that included the original boundaries of Milam County.
The purpose of this project is to collect and preserve Family Bible Records. The records should have a Milam County connection. After records are published they will be archived at the Milam County Genealogical Research Center at the Lucy Hill Patterson Memorial Library in Rockdale for future generations.
Why are Family Bibles important?
First, there is a wealth of information that can be found in these old Bibles.
Second, many contain information from a time-period when there were no birth or death certificates.
Third, in the case of Milam County, all public records prior to 1874 were destroyed when the Courthouse burned. There are 33 counties that were comprised out of lands that were contained within the original boundaries of the Milam County. When the courthouse burned, the early records for these areas were destroyed as well.
Forth, many Family Bibles get lost or forgotten.
Criteria for submission:
(1) Each Bible must have at least one entry of a person born, died or married prior to World War II to qualify.
(2) Owner to furnish readable photocopy of the pages with the family information in the Bible; copy of the title page, copy of the page with date of Bible and publisher of Bible. Print name, address, telephone and e-mail of submitter on the back of each copy submitted.
For the Bible to be a credible genealogical record, you must include the source information and documentation. Genealogy without documentation is mythology.
(3) In cases that the Bible is too fragile or otherwise unable to be copied, just make a typewritten or very printed handwritten and legible transcription of the entire record. Then carry the transcription and the Bible to a notary. Have them read your copy, compare it to the Bible and sign the notary statement with the seal impression or print.
The notary acknowledgement would be:STATE OF ______
I, ____________________________________ a notary of the County and State aforesaid, certify that __________________________________________ has personally appeared before me asking for a comparison of the Bible to a transcription made and submitted by him/her/them. I have compared records and find that the transcription is a true copy. Witness my hand and official seal this _______ day of ___________ 200__._______________________________
Alternatively, if the Bible is too fragile to photocopy, you can make digital photographs of the title pages, including the date, place of publication, name of publisher and the handwritten entry pages for submission.
(4) Include a permission statement with your submission:
I, ____________________________, on this date, ________________, give my permission as owner of the record submitted, to the Milam County Genealogical Society to publish the record either in their newsletter, book form or electronic form the Family Bible Records submitted by me on this date._______________________________
To submit your Family Bible to: MCGS, ATTN: Bible Records Project, c/o Lucy Hill Patterson Memorial Library, 201 Ackerman St., Rockdale, Texas 76567.

In a recent article by Newsday Bettman was quoted say that he believes that the Islanders are staying in Nassau and that a deal for a refurbish Coliseum can still happen.
NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman said he would find it hard to believe a deal will not be worked out to replace or refurbish Nassau Coliseum, thus keeping the Islanders on Long Island, before the lease expires in 2015.
"They still have three-and-a-half years to go, Bettman said in an informal session following a news conference here during All-Star Weekend. I find it hard to believe that there wont be a solution to that building situation. Long Island deserves a new building, not just for hockey, but for concerts and family shows and the like. And Ive got to believe the people in charge of those things will tend to it in due course.

BERLIN (Reuters) - David Bowie's intensely productive Berlin period - when he made the iconic albums "Heroes" and "Low", launched Iggy Pop's solo career and kicked a drug habit - is the theme of a new show adapted from last year's sold-out exhibition in London.
Arriving in 1976 from Los Angeles, exhausted from his antics as "Ziggy Stardust" and other stage personae, he shed the glam-rock outfits and big hair for a more anonymous life documented at Berlin's Martin Gropius Bau, an extended version of the show that broke box-office records at the Victoria & Albert Museum.
"If people saw him in a bar in Berlin they would just say: 'So what? I play in a band too'. Bowie liked that, there were no screaming fans and he wasn't treated like a superstar," recalls Peter Radszuhn, who worked at Berlin's Hansa Studios where Bowie recorded and is now director of music at Berlin's Radio Eins.
But in the company of the irrepressible Iggy and surrounded by the louche attractions of West Berlin, it was never going to be a monastic existence.
As photos on display show, Bowie was re-living the bohemian pre-war Berlin described by his friend Christopher Isherwood in books that would inspire the musical "Cabaret".
Fascinated by the intense paintings and cinema of German Expressionism, Bertolt Brecht's theater and the city's Cold War landscape, he and his collaborator Brian Eno blended the sounds of Krautrock, electronic and punk for some of Bowie's most-covered tracks, as well as some brooding and obscure ones.
The Berlin era was so influential that Bowie has described the records he made here as "my DNA". By the end of his stay, the chameleon-like artist was moving in a different direction with the pop sounds of the 1979 album "Lodger".
But he again paid homage to the city in his acclaimed 2013 comeback album "The Next Day", produced like the Berlin trilogy by Toni Visconti.
Recycling artwork from the cover of "Heroes" and listing his old haunts, like the nightclub Dschungel, it provides a soundtrack for fans who are expected to flock to the city for the new show.
Christine Heidemann, who curated the Berlin extension to the V&A exhibition - which puts the fashion iconoclast's outrageous costumes in the context of his musical output and inspirations - searched the archives of the rock star, his friends, museums and public records to present new material about his time here.
Alongside photos, sketches and scribbled lyrics to his hits, she hangs portraits painted by Bowie of Iggy alongside a woodcut and oil by Expressionist master Erich Heckel. They inspired the odd angular poses on the cover of "Heroes" and Iggy's "The Idiot", one of his two raw 1977 hit albums produced by Bowie.
Heidemann also discovered correspondence between Bowie and the ageing German screen idol Marlene Dietrich. They co-starred in the 1978 film "Just a Gigolo", her last film appearance which was panned by the critics.
She also sifted through archives of the former East German secret police, the Stasi, for reports related to his 1987 return to Berlin, when he sang "Heroes" by the Wall - provoking a riot by thousands of fans on the other side risking arrest to listen.
The Berlin Wall appears in the lyrics of the single "Heroes" which was recorded near the Gropius Bau at the studio known then as "Hansa Studio by the Wall" - it was so close that East German sentries could see right into the windows from their watchtower.
Guiding visitors through recording studios used by a chart-list of legends - U2, Nina Hagen, Nick Cave and Depeche Mode - Thielo Schmied of Fritz MusicTours tells the story of how Bowie spotted his producer Visconti kissing one of the backing singers in the scruffy backyard beneath the Wall.
In the song, about two lovers, Bowie sings: "I can remember/Standing, by the wall/And the guns shot above our heads/And we kissed, as though nothing could fall".
Heidemann, who had Bowie's melancholic Berlin-themed 2013 single "Where Are We Now?" echoing in her head as she researched the show, said Berlin has changed a lot since Bowie's stay, and not only because the Wall came down.
"But people come here with similar expectations - that Berlin is a place where you can somehow relax or retreat, which is what Bowie expected when he came here after a turbulent time in Los Angeles," she said amid frantic work before the opening on May 20. "It's a place where you can be very creative."

TITUSVILLE — The body of an 80-year-old Titusville man was found lying face down in a puddle of water shortly after he was reported missing Tuesday by owners of the marina where he had lived.
Titusville police said the man had lived alone on a houseboat at Nelson's Harbour, 419 N. Washington Ave., for the past three years. Lt. Bert Sellers said he was last seen about 9 a.m. Monday.
