I have lost count of the number of tests I've had and yet still no diagnosis, though one doctor did tell me that swollen eyes are a rare side effect of taking prozac - something I had been taking at the onset of my symptoms. Has any one else experienced anything similar?Reply Follow This Thread Stop Following This Thread Flag this Discussion

Killer rain claims 47 in north, Delhi in disarray
Torrential monsoon rains lashed Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh and Himachal Pradesh on Monday, killing at least 47 people and leaving more than 15,000 stranded, including cricketer Harbhajan Singh. HT reports. After the cheer, worries pour in | Watch: building swept away by floodsindia Updated: Jun 18, 2013 03:06 IST
Hindustan Times
Monsoon rains unleashed havoc across north India on Monday, leaving 47 people dead, thousands of tourists and pilgrims stranded and holding Delhi in its track during the morning rush hour.
The Capital woke up to heavy rain that led to waterlogging, triggering traffic chaos that spilled into afternoon. Waterlogging was reported from many parts of south and east Delhi. Major roads such as the BRT and airport road were partially flooded.
Though civic agencies claimed that desilting had been done, long queues of vehicles told an entirely different story. The city got 17.1 mm of rain on Monday, down from the 58 mm it received on Sunday and early Monday.
In the hill state of Uttarakhand, flashfloods in the Ganga and its tributaries triggered by incessant rains for over 48 hours left a trail of death and destruction, killing 23 people, injuring 19 and damaging 164 buildings.
More than 30,000 tourists and pilgrims stranded in the Garhwal hills. Some 15,000 of them, including Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh, are stuck between Rishikesh and Badrinath.
More than 50 people are reported missing from the Rudraprayag-Kedarnath route. Unofficial figures put the number at 100 and many of them are feared drowned.
Seven persons went missing and five vehicles, including a chopper, were swept away in the heavy rain which was still continuing in a number of places across the state, PTI quoted disaster management authorities in Dehradun as saying.
Uttarakhand is not only home to some of the holiest Hindu shrines such as Badrinath and Kedarnath but also several Sikh holy places.
The Uttar Pradesh government sounded an alert in the districts bordering Uttarakhand and Nepal as major rivers were in spate following heavy rains. Fifteen people died in flash floods in Sharanpur district, IG (law and order) RK Vishwakarma said.

"Majority of those killed in the flood were pilgrims going to the temple located in Shakumbhari. The vehicles the pilgrims were travelling was swept away in the swift current of the river," he said.
With the rains not letting up in Himachal, situation worsened in tribal Kinnaur district that remained cut from the rest of state for more than 48 hours. Nine more persons died in different incidents of house collapse in the district.
Out campaigning for a Lok Sabha byelection, chief minister Virbhadra Singh found himself stranded in Sangla village for the second day. Inclement weather didn't allow helicopter to airlift the CM and landslides have blocked all roads leading to the area. A number of tourists are stranded across the state and efforts are on to rescue them.
The situation is expected to improve. Rainfall activity is likely to fall over entire northwest, including Punjab, Haryana, Delhi-NCR, Uttarakhand and Himachal from June 19 onwards.
Monsoon rains have covered the entire country a month ahead of the normal schedule - the first time in more than 50 years. Early onset of monsoon has brightened prospects of a good output for summer-sown crops such as rice, oilseeds and cotton.

Okay so I'm really trying to keep up with my blog this time.. and I do love writing them but I can't ever think of anything to write!
It's Heidi's 2nd birthday on Sunday, and she's already had her presents (books, a new pram, other odd bits) but I still haven't decided what to do for her birthday.. I seriously need to be more organised.
I think we're going to take her to Wacky Warehouse or the equivalent of it, as she hasn't been before and it will be a nice change. We were going to go to Alton Towers or Chester Zoo, but funds aren't high enough and she isn't really old enough to appreciate it anyway..
Also, this week my mum's gone away so I'm staying in her house with sam. We're currently moving all the stuff out of the flat as we've been evicted (too many 'complaints' but the landlords a tosser anyway) and we're moving into his dad's 8 bedroom house for the time being. Probably going to go look at some more houses this week too.. as I don't know how long it will last living with his dad, step-mum and 6 siblings all under the age of ten.
Can't say it won't be interesting...
I'll tell you how it goes next week :)

Cobbled mine together between housecleaning and packing episodes in preparation of vacation...
Hidden within the heart of the dungeon is the throne of a paranoid overlord - a disk suspended over a bottomless shaft by massive chains. The overlord, and perhaps a trusted adviser, hold forth here within an anti-magic shell, only dropping it to levitate a chosen few across. Foolhardy assassins may attempt to leap or climb across, but none have succeeded, their screams fading into the inky depths.

Read the Nexsyn FAQ
Nexsyn ScreenshotsThese screen shots show off the individual sections. There are hundreds of possible combinations of sections you can have, depending on your workflow.
FX section
Arp expanded
FX section
Arp expanded
Nexsyn's 4GB XWM library provided by Big Fish Audio
Nexsyn is a hybrid instrument that combines sample playback and synthesis
technology. Nexsyn is designed for the musician, sound designer, and producer
who wishes for a powerful synthesizer with high quality output, advanced
modulation, and precise sample based key-map playback. Whether you're
in the studio or on stage Nexsyn is the only way to get to NetNotes –
the revolutionary way to audition, share, and acquire presets.
The Preset Browser window presents a virtual keyboard to trigger presets
and also shows you the FX modules used on the preset. This makes it easy
to listen to a preset with and without effects. The Notes section also
shows you a description of the preset. You can quickly audition sample
based presets quickly to see if they work in the mix.
This view is where NetNotes is accessed. For more information on NetNotes,
click the logo on the left hand side.
Nexsyn gives you three filter modules each capable of holding one of
sixteen filter types. When in stereo mode, the cut off points for the
left and right side can be modulated with the "Spread" parameter.
The Modulation Matrix is quick to program. The matrix can route 6 sources
to 12 destinations. There are 12 possible sources such as Mod Wheel, After
touch, Velocity, etc. and 61 possible destinations to modulate such as
Osc 1 Pitch Left, or Filter 2 Cutoff, or LFO amount.
The two FX sections offer eight stereo effects to add character to your
sound. Each section has an independant output. FX 1 has a re-direct output
to FX2 and both can sync to your host.
Nexsyn has three envelope sections with six segments. In Expert view,
the slope can be adjusted individually for the Attack, Decay, and Release.
The envelope tracking indluces key and velocity to amplitude and time.
The envelopes are triggered by MIDI note on/off or by each other.
To view Nexsyn's specs, click here.
The Oscillators::
Three oscillators modules each capable of holding one of the seven different oscillator types in mono or stereo. Dig a little deeper and you'll find that Oscillator modutes two and three give access to the 4GB stock sample based library (provided by Big Fish Audio). Of course you can still plug in a classic waveform oscillator, but with access to sample based libraries, you'll find yourself exploring other modulation possibilities.
The Filters ::
Nexsyn gives you three filter sections each capable of holding one of sixteen filter types. The filters can be set to traditional mono or even better, stereo mode. When in stereo mode the cut off points for the left and right side can be modulated with the "spread" parameter, opening the doors to a filter modulation frenzy! It's even better once you really get inside.
The LFO's ::
Nexsyn can load three Low Frequency Oscillator sections each with five destinations. The LFO's can be set to Reset (Local), Global, and "Envelope Mode" (Single Shot). The LFO you choose can be one of twelve waveforms, featuring it's own built in envelope. Some of these LFO waveforms can even be tweaked individually and of course the LFO's sync to host Midi Clock.
The Envelopes ::
The Nexsyn has three envelope sections with six segments: Pre-delay, Attack, Hold, Decay, Sustain, and Release. In Expert Mode, the slope can be adjusted individually for the Attack, Decay, and the Release. The Envelope tracking includes key and velocity to amplitude and time. The envelopes are triggered by Midi Note on/off or by each other. And yes, they can be re-triggered as well.
The Modulation Matrix ::
Accessible and quick to program, this is where your sound design goes to the next level! The Matrix gives you twelve modulation destinations, fed by six sources. The drop down menus make setting up the matrix quick, so your creativity is not hindered.
The Effects ::
The Two Effects sections offer eight stereo effects to add character to your sound. Each section has an independent output. Section one has a re-direct output to the other Effect Section.
The Arpeggiator ::
The Arpeggiator section is simple and quick to use, but gets as deep as you want to go. The Sixteen step loop duration can control Chord play, Slide, and Stacatto values of your presets and when used with percussive instruments, the Arpeggiator can create complex poly-rhythms and cadences. The limits are set only by your creativity.

Why I Began Drinking PG Tips
Hollywood loves to show British people drinking tea. More specifically, the movie producers like to show young British women in long, pastel-colored dresses holding detailed teacups and saucers, daintily sipping at sugared, black tea and gossiping together about young men in stylish green coats.
"Oh, so women drank a lot of hot tea during the 1700's and 1800's," I thought, after having seen several Jane Austen movie remakes. "People only really drink iced tea now."
Several events then occurred. For example, my college roommate spent a semester at Oxford. On her arrival back, she sang nothing but praise about British tea. Also, several weeks back, my fiance introduced me to a modern, British show: Sherlock. Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman always seemed to be making tea!
This left me with one conclusion: I was wrong. People in the United Kingdom still, and possibly always will, hold high regard for a cup of tea.
With this knowledge, I had one course of action in my desire to adapt British customs – to drink hot tea. So, every few weeks, I scrape up a few dollars and skip out to purchase a box of PG Tips. Here are the top 3 reasons why anyone reading this post should do the same:
Number 3 – To Kick-start the Busy Day
Americans drink coffee, black or sweetened, to kick-starttheir busy day. The British drink a cup of black tea, otherwise known as Breakfast tea. One such British tea is PG Tips.
PG Tips makes many different teas. However, in the United States, PG Tips makes the most sales with their strong, black tea. So, instead of guzzling down the steaming hot, black coffee, I would highly recommend PG Tips for a strong caffeine kick.
Number 2 – To Accompany Lemon and Honey
Before Sherlock, I never knew what to add to my cup of tea. I'm thinking of the third episode in the most recently aired fourth series, where Sherlock, John, and Mycroft watch Molly cut a lemon and squeeze its juice into her teacup. The next time my fiance and I visited the Neighborhood Market, we picked up some lemons to add to our morning tea.
To say the lemons were good in the tea does the experience little justice. One lemon slice with PG Tips is delightful and flavorful, and something to experience regularly. If lemons are hard to find, honey is a more than acceptable substitute.
Number 1 – England's No. 1 Tea
Searching the PG Tips website revealed different teas and different packaging than what I can find here in the United States. However, on the USA packaging of PG Tips, the lid reveals a red banner claiming PG Tips as the Number One Tea in England!
Can this merely be good marketing? Yes, of course. It's also effective. When my college roommate came back from Oxford, she bought only PG Tips. Hence why they became my go-to tea in the first place.
In writing this post, I have zero intention of slighting other teas. I merely write to encourage my readers to try a delightful British, black tea that has brought this writer much joy in her tea drinking. If the reader knows me, come on over and try it yourself!

Prices include prescription and delivery.
Aciclovir is an active ingredient used to treat genital herpes caused by the herpes simplex virus HSVII. Aciclovir is a prescription only medication, which can be taken to suppress an acute herpes outbreak or prevent recurring herpes episodes. Dosage and duration of the treatment depend on whether you are taking aciclovir as a preventative measure or to treat acute symptoms. Once you have been infected with herpes, the virus will remain in your body for the rest of your life. However, aciclovir can help you live with the condition without having to suffer symptoms, as it renders the virus inactive.
Aciclovir is an antiviral medication. It inhibits a particular enzyme involved in the virus's reproduction, thus preventing it from multiplying. As a result, your immune system is able to contain the virus and fight the infection. Aciclovir is also used to treat cold sores (caused by herpes simplex HSVI), chicken pox and shingles (also known as herpes zoster). DrEd only prescribes aciclovir as a genital herpes medication.
Prior to beginning a course of aciclovir, you should take the time to read the patient leaflet carefully. During treatment it is important to drink plenty of water, as aciclovir increases your risk of dehydration. The higher the dosage, the more important it is that you watch out for symptoms of dehydration.
Aciclovir can cause drowsiness in some patients. Make sure you do not operate any machinery or drive a car while feeling sleepy under the influence of aciclovir.
There is little information on how aciclovir affects babies during pregnancy or breastfeeding. If you are suffering from genital herpes during pregnancy or after birth, please consult your GP. Please note, that DrEd is not able to treat pregnant women.
Unlike bacterial infections, viral infections can be impossible to eradicate entirely. Once you carry the herpes simplex virus you may suffer recurring outbreaks, especially if your immune system is weakened. This does not mean that you will forever be dealing with herpes symptoms, it just means that the condition may return. If you repeatedly encounter recurrent bouts, you may need to take aciclovir to prevent them. This is the case if you suffer more than 6 outbreaks in 12 months or if your outbreaks are less frequent but very severe. You should also try to live as healthily as possible to maintain a healthy immune system.
If you are suffering from kidney disease, you must consult your GP prior to taking aciclovir tablets. Patients with a reduced kidney function require a lower dosage for treating herpes outbreaks. Your doctor will be able to tell whether the benefits of taking aciclovir outweigh the risks in your case and which dosage to take.
You need to take each aciclovir tablet with plenty of water. You can take it with or without food, whichever you prefer. If you are having trouble swallowing the tablet, you can disperse it in a glass of water and drink it.
The exact dosage you require depends on your general health, your age and whether you are using aciclovir to prevent or suppress an outbreak. The usual dosage during suppressive therapy is 3x 400mg tablets per day for five days. If you are taking aciclovir as a preventative measure you need to take 2 tablets per day over a longer period of time. Depending on the success of your therapy you may need to continue the treatment over several weeks or even months.
You should always follow your doctor's instructions with regards to the treatment duration. It is important that you finish your course, especially if you are treating an acute outbreak (otherwise the symptoms are likely to return). If you experience any side effects or would like to stop an ongoing preventative course, please consult your doctor before doing so. Your doctor will be able to advise you on whether it is wise to take a break or whether you should continue taking aciclovir tablets.
The active ingredient in aciclovir tablets is aciclovir. DrEd normally prescribes tablets with a dosage of 400mg aciclovir. Other ingredients may include lactose, magnesium stearate, polyvidone, E132, E460, sodium starch glycollate, E172 and colloidal anhydrous silica.
These side effects affect 1 in 10 users
These side effects affect less than 1 in 100 users
These side effects affect less than 1 in 1000 users
Very rare side effects include hepatitis, anaemia and other disorders affecting your blood. Please read the patient leaflet for a full list of side effects and consult a doctor if you have any questions.

I realized today that I have not posted most of my art for 3 years. I have now uploaded all of it to the gallery, but here are some of my favorites.

Artwork 2013.03.16
Two pieces. The "Nose" (Ink and Colored Pencil) was done two days ago. I am going to do more body parts than just the one nose, but I suddenly felt the urge to draw myself. I sketched the "Sketch Portrait" last night and inked it today. It's hard to decide whether my favorite piece is now "Sketch Portrait" or "Zebra Lovers".

For the first time in Venice, Grisha Bruskin (Moscow1945) offers us an evocative and inspiring exhibition, a complicated rebus but not impossible to decipher:
Alefbet is an alphabet of Kabbalistic nature, populated by 160 figures including angels and demons from the animal world, men pierced by lightning or carrying upon the shoulders their own shadow.
A pictorial Carnival, a little fairy, a sort of "archaeological" reconstruction of Shoa where fragments of a lost past resurfaces, experienced only indirectly by the artist, through the stories of relatives.

Today, email inboxes are being flooded with about 400% more unsolicited bulk email, or spam, than they were back in September, according to new numbers published by Brightmail Inc., a San Francisco-based anti-spam company that sells software and rules to filter out spam.
And brand new numbers from one of the largest anti-spam organizations, Mail-Abuse Prevention Systems LLC (MAPS), shows that 600% to 700% more spam was sent out between April and June of this year compared to the same time frame last year.
"It's definitely higher than I thought it would be. It's kind of terrifying," says Margie Arbon, director of operations at MAPS. "This is a huge drain on companies trying to deal with it. Most companies are paying for bandwidth. They're having to pay to have this stuff delivered.

|Spam-Fighting Strategies From The Pros: Anti-spam gurus offer companies several weapons in the battle to stem the growing tide.
Ken Schneider, chief technology officer at Brightmail, says spam has long plagued large ISPs, but this recent deluge means that it's weighing heavily on smaller ISPs and corporations.
"There's been explosive growth over the last nine months," says Schneider. "The percentage of email that is spam has gone from 10% to 20%. If you get five messages in corporate mail, one of those is going to be spam. If you're a large ISP, half your mail could easily be spam."
Graphic Subject Lines, Graphic Images
And Schneider says there isn't simply more spam these days. There's a lot more pornographic spam, with far more graphic subject lines and a higher percentage that come with graphic images.
"Spam is a nuisance to a lot of people," says Schneider. "But when it's pornographic, it causes a lot more pain to a company or an ISP because it's so much more bothersome for employees. It's so much more in-your-face lately. The subject lines are smuttier."
The subject lines are often misleading, even using the recipient's name to fool people into opening the email to find pornographic messages and photos.
Arbon says at MAPS they don't track the content of the spam but they are noticing that an increasing number of "legitimate" companies are sending out spam as part of their marketing strategies.
"I've seen a huge increase in very legitimate companies making some interesting choices in who they're using to send out mail," says Arbon. "A lot of places that claim to have totally opt-in lists don't...I don't think they understand what it is they're doing. I think a backlash is coming and a lot of these companies are naively thinking this is OK because that's what their marketing people are telling them."
This influx of spam is driving a lot of companies to take extreme measures to keep their networks from buckling under the weight of it all, according to Arbon. Some companies, she says, are using multiple blackhole lists, they're making their own lists and they're even blocking out email from entire countries or regions, such as Asia.
And Arbon notes that many spammers have moved their operations overseas so a great percentage of spam is coming from Eastern European countries, South America and Asian countries. "Spammers are using countries that are just a little behind the technology curve," says Arbon. "They may not be aware of the issues involved, or they're not set up to respond to the issues or perhaps there are economic conditions that make the cash flow more appealing than dealing with the consequences."
But Arbon and Schneider both agree that blocking out entire countries or regions is not a good tactic to take, because it cuts a company off from receiving legitimate email that could be coming from or through that region. And Arbon points out that a high percentage of spam is still coming from the United States.
"There was always the concern that people would be missing legitimate email but I see that fading rapidly," says Arbon. "The economy isn't great. Companies don't have the staff to deal with it. ISPs can't afford to man their abuse complaint desks like they should. It's a vicious cycle."

Most of our guild members participate and often we will see each other when we take our artworks to the fairgrounds a week ahead of time to be judged.
Since we began sponsoring the division a few years ago, many in our group will participate in demonstrating polymer clay use for three or four hours the afternoon of the first Sunday of the fair. We each bring a few of the things we have made with clay, our clay, tools etc and work on the tables while answering questions from passersby, demonstrating a technique etc. Tomorrow is show time! We will be introducing folks to polymer clay play.
It is great fun for me and the people who stop to watch seem to be surprised at what can be made from polymer. This bell doll angel is one of my entries this year in the category of sculpting.
For beads I molded eight scarab beetles (from my own original mold) and put them back to back to make a scarab beetle bead and put them on wire bead pins. I used mica powders to create the rich, brilliant colors of ancient Egypt. I strung them on an elastic bead cord with gold beads between each beetle bead. No pics of these yet.
The jewelry entry is a Green Woman earring and pendant set and household and functional was a small, red, heart shaped jewelry box with faux lace, tufted top and gathered lace edge.
Tomorrow we'll all get to see how our various items scored but more than that, we will have another chance to share our hobby with folks and play in clay together.

At the centre of the protests in Handwara sparked by the molestation of a young school girl, the Jammu and Kashmir High Court directed the police superintendent to allow the minor to meet her mother and lawyers.
Protests erupted in Handwara town after allegations of molestation by an Army solider on 12 April, two people died and a women was hit by a bullet. However, the case has taken on different turns since then. Initially, an army personnel was accussed of molesting the girl, however in her video statements to the police and the chief judicial magistrate under Section 164-A of CrPC, she absolved the armyman of any wrongdoing.
The girl named, Hilal Ahmed Bandey as one of the persons who molested her after she she came out of a public restroom. In her statement before the Judicial Magistrate, she said that on 12 April, after school hours, while proceeding to her home with her friend, she entered in a public lavatory near main chowk in Handwara — "As soon as she came out of lavatory she was confronted, assaulted and dragged by two boys and her bag was snatched. One of the boys was in school uniform. The production of the girl along with her father before the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Handwara was to comply with the order of the Jammu and Kashmir High Court," police had said.
According to The Hindustan Times, the girl was being kept in "illegal police custody"and a Habeas Corpus writ was heard by the High Court. A statement by the Jammu and Kashmir Coalition of Civil Societies (JKCCS) quoted in the paper reads, "The consequence of today's proceedings is six more days of illegal police custody for the Handwara minor girl. But, the direction to SP Ghulam Jeelani Wani will ensure that for the first time since being detained the minor girl and family will have unhindered access to legal counsel."
The girl's counsel claims that her statements to the police and CJM were not made voluntarily. He said the girl, who did not blame any army personnel for molestation as alleged earlier, had been pressured to testify in a manner directed by the police. He said the girl's statement before the chief judicial magistrate, Handwara on Sunday was recorded in the absence of her father and her lawyers. "The minor girl's statement under Section 164-A CrPC was recorded before the judicial magistrate at Handwara.
Her father was not present in court during the recording of the statement. No lawyer was present in court accompanying her. "In the courtroom, besides the judge, there were four other persons who the minor girl could not identify," the spokesman said. JKCSS also maintains that the girl was being kept in detention illegally, in a "jungle-like place."
The JKCCS has also written to Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti, director-general of Jammu and Kashmir Police, IGP Kashmir, DIG North Kashmir, divisional commissioner Kashmir and DC Kupwara for "unhindered access of the legal counsels to the family".
But, so far, "the government has chosen to not respond," he said.

Seeing a finished prefab house, let alone the installation process, is a rare treat -- which is why Los Angeles Times video journalist Carlos V. Uribe recently documented the construction of a new prefab in Venice. The modern, modular design is the family residence of Leo Marmol, managing partner of Marmol Radziner and Associates, the L.A.-based architectural firm regarded as a leader in the prefab industry.
Whereas some prefab projects are essentially kits of parts assembled on-site, the Venice house is composed of largely finished modules -- 12 feet wide, 14 feet high and up to 40 feet long. Most of the walls, flooring, countertops, cabinetry, doors and even some appliances were in place upon delivery from a factory in Vernon.
One of the benefits of this type of construction is speed: While the foundation is being prepared, the modules can be built simultaneously in the factory, where quality control is greater and bad weather won't cause delays.
Earlier this month, Uribe was on the scene as the Marmol Radziner modules were craned into place and secured to form a two-story house in just two days. For a rare glimpse of the process and interviews with Marmol and business partner Ron Radziner, look for Uribe's video, posted only at latimes.com/home.

The report is not even off the presses yet, but it has already garnered more ink than it will probably take to print it. The findings of the Attorney General's Commission on Pornography, due out shortly, have had people and the press buzzing, ever since the Southland Corp. jumped the gun and pulled adult magazines from the racks of its company-owned 7-Eleven stores last month and urged its franchises to do the same.
Southland's decision to stop selling Playboy, Penthouse and Forum magazines caught many by surprise. The company had staunchly weathered many attacks by anti-pornography advocates in recent years, including a march on the corporation's headquarters in Dallas last fall, led by the Rev. Jerry Falwell.

I am doubly happy with the coming of September. It´s the start of spring season and yeah I can now wear my favorite summer clothes. When Semptember comes it means that the happiest time of the year - Christmas is near. More exciting come the last BER month as me and my hubby agreed on something. We have been adhered to the same place that´s not making us grow to the best of our God-given potential. We should move forward. September is also mom and my sisters birthday month. September is indeed loved.
With the breaking of the month and the transition to spring, a little shopping wouldn´t hurt, grabbed my most needed basic white tee and another flipflops.
Hering basic white tee I can mix and match with a lot of bottoms. The number 1 on my list of spring/summer essential. The V-shaped collar and its texture made me chose Hering.
Havaianas sandals in candy color for day to day errands, barbeque parties, and strolling at the beach. my dermatologist forbade me from using rubber slippers but I´ve been using it lately and no sign of allergy appears. (hey, it my ugly feet..yeah i know)..

The USGS Water Science School
Back to previous page
Floods, droughts, glaciers:
Q&A home:
Let's assume that you get your water from the local water department through pipes buried below the streets. In other words, you don't have your own well in your back yard. Chances are that you get your water through the magic of gravity and pumps. Cities and towns build those big water towers on top of the highest hills and then fill them with water. So even if you live on a hill, there's a good chance the water tower is higher than your house. Water moves from the tower, due to gravity, and goes down a large pipe from the tower and then through an intricate network of pipes that eventually reach your house.
Although gravity supplies the power to move water from the tower to peoples' homes, electricity is needed to run a pump to push water from the source into the tower. Although water can be delivered to pipes going to homes directly from the pump, the water tower is needed for periods of the day when demand exceeds the supply the pump can deliver. These water towers are often designed to hold the amount of water needed for a day's worth of use by the customers.
You've probably passed by so many water towers that you just ignore them, but they are an essential mechanism for getting water to your faucets and tomato plants. Normally water towers are painted white and are just big cylinders on top of a tall tube. But there is no law saying a town can't try to make their water tower into a tourist attraction, as Gaffney, South Carolina has done. "The Giant Peach" water tower in Gaffney is a well known landmark that supplies the town with water. It is 150 feet tall and holds 1 million gallons of water.

A Miracle is Just a Shift in Perception
By Colleen DeRango
In working with clients to help them heal their trauma, many of us in the Somatic Experiencing® community have come to recognize that one component preceding a shift in perception may not be a thought at all: It may be the body's "felt sense" of moving from a state of calm to anxiety and then to calm again, or what is called "pendulation."
Peter Levine's influence at Mellody House has generated a subtle shift in the way we work with clients; our focus is on supporting clients in establishing a sense of "internal resourcing," as opposed to concentrating on difficulties or problem areas. Somatic Experiencing reinforces this focus and gives us the necessary tools and language.
Consider an example: A cat attentively and expectantly watches a mole dig a tunnel under the lawn. The cat waits with positive expectancy for the mole to move. This visual image represents the idea of seizing or grabbing hold of the positive. As counselors, we do this by supporting the client in reconnecting with the felt sense of "I can."Sometimes this "I can" sensation is expressed in a bodily movement. Other times, the client experiences a bodily change, wherein he feels "less tight, less anxious, less painful, less stuck." Gently encouraging the client to experience his "felt sense" of this less painful state is often the beginning of the miracle of moving from "I can't" to "I can." Clients are adept at sensing their own states of non-calm; so we focus on beginning from a place of "safety, calm, centeredness - or when they last felt most like themselves." We reflect on how they experienced these states and, from this place of resource, we support them in "touching into" the edges of the more difficult sensations of "tightness, strain or constriction."
Therapists support clients in listening to what their bodies are sensing, and we challenge them to trust it. For example, in a guided meditation or group session, if a client begins to feel "closed-in" or "anxious," he's encouraged to do what he wants to do - and to experience it from a "felt sense." Oftentimes this includes leaving the room while sensing what it is like to be able to get up and leave. When we introduced this strategy, we thought perhaps clients wouldn't return. Yet they have always returned and quite often shared with the group their sensations of empowerment.
Additionally, we give clients choices; for example, in meditation sessions, they are welcome to follow the guided meditation or to make a choice about how they want to meditate and then do so. Choice, when given to trauma survivors, is powerful; clients often share that they experienced the act of choosing as a felt sense of power, as opposed to the powerlessness many experienced during past traumatic events.
Knowing that trauma is about disconnection and that healing is about reconnection, the client experiences the sensation of being able to move, versus the trauma of being forced to stay. We wondered if clients would use their ability to choose as an excuse to leave group. Interestingly, the clients who left once rarely left again; they shared that they experienced a "sensation of empowerment" as a "life force" versus "life depletion." In SE language, we would identify this as the "miracle" of self-regulation, i.e., activation and deactivation. In SE we also learn that the body has the ability to self-regulate and that "trauma disconnect" interrupts this capability.
Somatic Experiencing® meshes well with The Meadows' model, which is trauma-based. In the powerful Survivors' Workshop, an experiential exercise encourages the client to "identify with his functional adult caring for his inner child." He then shares his reality with the people in his life who have been "abusive, neglectful or abandoning." This involves resourcing prior to touching into the anxiety or pain. The workshop is completed within a community of five or six other clients. As in SE, healing work is meant to be processed with someone, versus by oneself.
At Mellody House, we reinforce the value of community in working toward trauma healing and recovering from addictions and self defeating, addictive behavior patterns. In essence, we encourage clients to support themselves and one another from a place of compassion. Following the SE approach of giving counselors permission to make mistakes while training, we encourage our clients to "experiment and make mistakes," encouraging the "try" without the limitation of the expectation of perfection. The successful part of the try is "pounced on positively," not only by counselors, but by other clients as well. As the client experiences the "felt sense" of "I can do this," energy becomes available to "touch into" more pain, anxiety, frustration or "stuckness." The "I can" part of self-regulation is restored, and the result is a client who senses new empowerment. "I cannot drink" becomes a "felt sense" experience of "I CAN not drink."
Clients who have achieved "self-empowerment" have an energy about them, a "coherence" that other clients seem to move toward. And somewhere along the way, the shift toward healing gains momentum, stronger than perhaps the "triggers to use." As a client discovers that "more of me is available to use my strategic thought" to manage the triggers, he develops resiliency.
I realized early on that I could talk at length with clients about their problems and still not know how to restore their resiliency. But if we can "pounce on the positive" and support clients in identifying their "felt senses" within, their human systems move into healing. The "I can" capacity of the human system is amazing.
In considering the recent Somatic Experiencing Conference, where many of us gathered to learn and to share our experiences, I think about the simple enjoyment of connecting with others in this community. My sensation of restored resiliency was reinforced by a wonderful "ventral vagal" connection with so many SE practitioners. What a strong reminder to balance work with fun, connection and growth.
In closing, instead of saying, "A miracle is just a shift in perception," one might say, "A miracle is the ability to shift and change perception." Either way, I believe in miracles.

Whether we use CSS or tables is, as Phill says, not the only point, and the one that was deemed most important to WCAG was about linearising sensibly - WCAG checkpoint 6.1 about making sure CSS-based pages make sense without CSS (question - is a broken CSS implementation "without style sheets"?) as well as 5.3 making sure that table layouts work in linear format recognise this (and a few other things). In the medium term there is an issue with using tables for layout - it means that serialising browsers have to be built not just to apply appropriate styling, but also to rewrite the HTML itself. cheers Chaals On Sat, 11 May 2002, Phill Jenkins wrote: Whether we use CSS or tables for layout is *not* the point - it's that it linearizes correctly! Same concept as correct or logical tab order. As you read a page, you want it to be read in a logical order. Adding DIV's in a confusing order and putting in layout CSS is just as confusing as bad layout tables. Both require the author and or tool to consider how the page will be rendered in a serial fashion, not just the 2 d visual rendering in a graphical browser.

An open center-console layout makes the Boston Whaler 150 Montauk an amazing fish and ski boat, with maximum onboard utility. The power of a standard 60-hp Mercury FourStroke engine provides great performance for watersports, or for cruising to nearshore saltwater and inland fishing spots. A shallow draft allows you to fish new and remote locations, and a low freeboard heightens on-water visibility. High wraparound railings and a high swamped capacity ensure superior safety for the whole family.

Where: East London Industrial Development Zone Conference Centre, East London
The Economies of Regions Learning Network and Jobs Fund, in association with REDI3X3 and the Poverty and Inequality Initiative, is hosting a two-day workshop on 23 and 24 August 2016 in East London in order to deepen partner understanding about approaches to youth skills development and job creation and to inspire city and regional economic stakeholders to action.
Persistent high levels of unemployment, partiularly youth unemployment, is one of the most important economic development challenges facing South Africa today. More than a quarter of the labour force are out of work and most of this unemployment is long-term. Significantly, young people bear the brunt facing higher levels of unemployment than other age cohorts. In addition, the unemployment rate for females is higher than for males, a consistent trend across the different age cohorts. With a youth unemployment rate that is amongst the highest in the world, finding pathways to employment is critical to transforming South Africa's future employment and growth trajectory.
The purpose of the event is:
- To highlight the challenges of the youth skills and employment challenge for regional economic stakeholders;
- To showcase positive examples of regional partnership action;
- To inspire regional stakeholders to develop innovative regional collaborations to address the challenge of youth skills development and employment;
- To identify the support cities and region require from national government and from research agencies to engage more effectively around youth skills and employment.
There is no workshop fee to attend Economies of Regions Learning Network workshops, however delegates are expected to fund their own travel, accommodation and local transport.

Easy and Best Holiday Makeup Ideas
Regardless of the event you are attending, you do not have to worry about your holiday makeup. Whether you are looking for something discreet or bold yet showing signs of sophistication, many options are out there for you to choose from. Looking at a couple of ideas you will get a sweet, flawless look or even an intense sparkling effect and not giving the felling that you are working for it.
The holidays give one a feeling that they want to shine, escaping from the common habits, especially when it involves makeup. It is the perfect time to experiment with something different. It is the right moment for you to be bold and glamorous. Depending upon your taste and the party you are attending, you can be a beautiful princess or seductive.
Holiday makeup does not mean you have to use vibrant, bold colors, Smokey, dark eyes or sparkles. A glowing skin, and lips and eyes that are barely colored can be romantic and sexy. Light pastels are something you should consider when selecting holiday makeup. A great option for if you want a discreet look is using a minimalist approach utilizing subtle shades which works for everyone.
You may want to select eye shadow which is darker and sandy in shade. You want to add it at the lash roots first on upper as well as lower. Then put on the mascara as well as lip gloss (make sure it is neutral in color). You may consider palette monotone and may want to use a shinny accent upon the lids or Cupid's bow. You may want to place more emphasis on the lips or the eyes. In this case a soft, thin line upon the upper lip or a powerful red lipstick represents a stylish yet simple holiday makeup choice.
It has been said that you may be charming and elegant without using too much metallic and sparkles. What is more chicks and sophisticated than the timeless black which reinvents itself every holiday. Contouring the eyes does not have to black, but can be substituted with brown, plumb, cobalt blue, or purple. This adds a little bit of a mysterious tone to your Smokey makeup. The secret to a flawless look is in the blending of your differing shades. You can get this with fundamental skills and a great applicator. If a brush is hard for you then smooth with the tip of your finger.
You want to start by putting on your eye lid an eye shadow that is dark brown. You want to start from the innermost corner of your eye above the crease from the eyelash line. Put on cobalt navy above that while blurring it into the crease along the lashes. Utilizing black kohl creates a line starting with the roots of the lashes on the innermost margin from the lower lid. Seeing as how the eye makeup is striking then you want your lips to look as natural as they can look by putting on neutral colors or even lip gloss which enhances the beauty of your natural lips. If you want to look at something daring then utilize red lipstick.
If you want to go for dramatic then utilize vibrant colors which work well for the holidays as long as they are used sparingly. Apply eye pencil in a more vibrant, brighter color like green or purple. Use a thick line on the upper lids and utilize eye shadow in the exact color so that you can secure it. Do not apply more than that other than mascara on the top lashes and a little bit of lip gloss with a little pink shade. The point is to not exaggerate.
If you are searching for bolder looks use a combination of black and yellow eyeliner. Utilize liquid black eyeliner and create a cat eye liner. Wait for it to dry and utilize a thinner brush to apply the yellow eye shadow. For a little sparkle, utilize a golden eye shadow on the inside corner of your eye. Then put a light coat of mascara and gloss with a peachy shade.
Seeing as how most events are in special locations and the evening, you may utilize sparkling makeup. Nothing screams holidays like silver and gold. These are great choices for a glamorized look. Try the golden eye makeup for a daring effect. Just remember to make the rest of your makeup natural and simple.

Cold Water Coral By-Catch from Bottom Trawling off New Zealand
The Census of Marine Life's results on Marine Biodiversity in New Zealand are published in the Public Library of Science's One Journal of 2 August 2010 here.
The Census recorded some 17,135 living species within New Zealand's 200 nautical-mile boundary of the Exclusive Economic Zone or EEZ. This diversity includes 4,315 known undescribed species in scientific collections. Total marine diversity in the EEZ is expected to equal that in the ERMS or European Register of Marine Species region despite the European region being 5.5 times larger than New Zealand's EEZ, indicating New Zealand's marine diversity is much greater than that in the European region.
The threats to New Zealand's marine biodiversity are several, including fishing, mining, chemical pollution, coastal nutrient and sediment input, habitat loss, aquaculture, invasive species, harmful algal blooms, and climate change.
Protected areas within New Zealand's EEZ
"Currently, there are more than 30 marine protected areas established in New Zealand waters. All are "no take" areas, administered by the Department of Conservation....They range in size from about 250 ha (within a harbor) to 745,000 ha (7,450 km2) (at the Kermadec Islands). Collectively, they protect 7.6% of New Zealand's territorial sea; however, 99% of this area is in two marine reserves around isolated offshore island groups (Auckland and Kermadec), and the sum of the areas of the remaining reserves in the mainland territorial sea is less than the area of the smallest terrestrial national park. Of New Zealand's total marine environment (EEZ), just 0.3% is protected in marine reserves. Currently the highest level of protection outside the territorial sea is through fisheries closures of trawling on 19 seamounts, initiated in 2001. Additionally, in 2007, the New Zealand government established 17 Benthic Protection Areas in deep water; these protect about 30% of the seabed in the EEZ from deep-sea bottom trawling and dredging activity. There are three marine parks, each having different regulations and generally affording a lower level of protection than marine reserves proper, for example, mainly protecting reef fish."
Much clearly remains to be done to manage the marine environment in a sustainable manner.

Persuasion by Jane Austen (1818)
Chapter 1
of real understanding, was nobody with either father or sister; her word had no weight, her convenience was always to give way--she was only Anne. To Lady Russell, indeed, she was a most dear and highly valued god-daughter, favourite, and friend. Lady Russell loved them all; but it was only in Anne that she could fancy the mother to revive again. A few years before, Anne Elliot had been a very pretty girl, but her bloom had vanished early; and as even in its height, her father had found little to admire in her, (so totally different were her delicate features and mild dark eyes from his own), there could be nothing in them, now that she was faded and thin, to excite his esteem. He had never indulged much hope, he had now none, of ever reading her name in any other page of his favourite work. All equality of alliance must rest with Elizabeth, for Mary had merely connected herself with an old country family of respectability and large fortune, and had therefore given all the honour and received none: Elizabeth would, one day or other, marry suitably.

It took me a few goes to get the arch bit right. I used some old bits of wire cloche frame to form the arch. It was strong enough to take the weight of the bricks. You can see the dome of the oven beginning to take shape. I am not using any fancy methods to get it right. I prefer to work with my artist's eye. I do a bit at a time and wait for the cement to dry before adding more bricks. My impetuous nature suffers a bit from working so slowly but I am controlling the urge to do too much at one time because I don't want it too collapse.
I hope it is a nice day tomorrow. I am excited to be getting on with it. I don't even know if it will work properly. I did look at some other bread oven designs but basically they all work on the same principle. I will keep you informed.
I have been having a go at computer art. Drawing using just the mouse. It is good fun. What I hope is that it will be a good way of doing preparatory drawings which I will then be able to work up to a proper painting.
Here's what I have done so far. It is quite difficult to control the mouse and often they come out a funny size. But I am getting there. The tribute to her Majesty the Queen was a bit of fun. The kingfisher picture began as a pen drawing and then I photographed it and finished it on the computer. I was quite pleased with that one.
|Wrong size. It was originally full size A4
|Fun tribute to Her Majesty the Queen.
|Kingfisher with fish.
Thanks for calling by. See you again soon.

Victory for Barnstormers in 2014 Home Opener
Sunday April 13, 2014
Iowa Barnstormers Hold On to Defeat San Antonio Talons
Des Moines, IA – The Iowa Barnstormers (2-2) won their home opener 63-62 against the San Antonio Talons (0-5) in front of 8,763 fans at Wells Fargo Arena on Saturday, April 12, 2014.
Excited to finally be on their home turf, the Iowa Barnstormers and FB Derik Steiner gave fans a glimpse of what the night would bring during their first possession of the game. In his first game as a Barnstormers, Steiner was able to sneak into the end zone during the opening drive. Retaliating quickly, QB Shane Boyd made a quick connection with WR D.J. Stephens. The Talons lone score in the first quarter wasn't enough after WR Darius Reynolds' touchdown completion and an interception by DB T. Tomas, Barnstormers lead 14-7.
San Antonio was only able to get into the end zone once in the second quarter, allowing for Iowa to pull even further ahead. Moving the ball around, Coffman connected with WR Marco Thomas and again with Reynolds. Continuing his momentum, Steiner brought in another six points for the team. The Barnstormers highest scoring quarter of the game brought a total of 21 points to the scoreboard.
The opening of Quarter 3 brought a second-half comeback attempt for the San Antonio Talons, with Boyd as their leader. For the night, Boyd completed 29-of-41 attempts for a total of 387 yards. Keeping steady, the Talons scored 14 more for their effort, one for FB Mykel Benson and another for Stephens. Not allowing the opponent to take the lead, Coffman found key receivers Reynolds and M. Thomas. Splitting the quarter in scoreboard tallies, Barnstormers lead, 49-28.
Collecting a total of 287 yards and seven touchdowns for the night, Coffman completed 19-of-37 passes. Coffman started off the fourth quarter for the Barnstormers with a 38-yard touchdown pass to M. Thomas, getting the fans ready for a close finish. The Talons snuck back into the game with a 34 point quarter, nearly sneaking off with a victory. Barnstormers win their 2014 home opener, 63-62.
The Iowa Barnstormers return home next weekend for Hall of Fame Weekend in a matchup versus the Los Angeles KISS (2-1).

One of the things that makes this game special is the excitement you feel as you make the Phoneleks chase you around and crash into each other. It's a lot of fun. But you've got to understand the way the Phoneleks move to be able to predict how they are going to chase you.
This is a turn-based game where you make a move and then the Phoneleks move and try to catch you. Their movement is simple–they chase you via the shortest possible path. If that's straight or diagonally then that's what they'll do.
You can also choose to not move (by tapping once on the screen). Then the Phoneleks will move toward your position.
As a side note, you can use the whole screen to indicate your movement (swipe anywhere). You don't have to start from the Doctor icon. This makes it easier to indicate moves when you are close to the edge of the board.
The goal is to get the Phoneleks to collide with each other. So it's important to be able to predict their paths over multiple turns. Think about each step they will make and where their paths will cross.
When they collide you'll get a cracked screen icon. And anything else that touches that square will be destroyed. Knowing that, it is also a useful strategy to get the Phoneleks to run into a cracked screen by standing on the other side of it from them.
Looking at a simple scenario, you've got to consider how many Phoneleks you can get to crash together with any one move. By moving to the left we can get three Phoneleks to crash together.
The more Phoneleks on the screen, the more you've got to think about what you're doing. It's important to think across multiple moves. Choosing the best move is usually choosing which move will set you up for better moves down the road, and strategically choosing where cracked screens will be so that other Phoneleks will crash into them as well.
Following a two-move analysis, moving up and to the right, the Phoneleks will chase in a very predictable pattern.
Now try a wiggle: down-right then back.
My hope is that when you understand this movement, you'll be a better Phoneleks player. If you're the sort of person who enjoys thinking ahead, the game is very rewarding, almost addicting. I hope you have fun with it.

Tanker bomb kills 48 in Syria's border town Azaz
The blast ripped through a market area in front of a local Islamic courthouse, the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.world Updated: Jan 07, 2017 23:11 IST
A massive tanker truck bomb ripped through a market by a courthouse in the rebel-held Syrian town of Azaz on Saturday, killing 48 people and wounding dozens near the Turkish border.
The attack appeared to be the deadliest yet in the town in northern Aleppo province, which has been regularly hit by bombings targeting rebels and civilians.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said at least fourteen rebels were among the dead, but most of those killed were civilians, including five religious judges belonging to various rebel factions.
Observatory chief Rami Abdel Rahman said identification of the dead was being hampered by the fact that some bodies were completely burned in the blast.
Video from the scene showed huge clouds of smoke rising from a street filled with debris and twisted metal, which bulldozers were working to clear.
Raging fires were burning in several vehicles, and the fire brigade was battling to put them out with a giant water tanker and hoses.
Azaz has been repeatedly struck by bomb attacks, including in November when rebels said 25 people -- civilians and opposition fighters -- were killed in a car bombing of a rebel headquarters.
The rebels accused the Islamic State group of being behind that attack.
The jihadist group is present elsewhere in Aleppo province and has sought to advance on Azaz in the past.
In October, at least 17 people were killed in a car bomb attack on a rebel checkpoint, the Observatory said.
IS suspected
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for Saturday's attack, but Osama al-Merhi, a lawyer at the scene of the blast, pointed the finger at IS.
"These kinds of crimes are only committed by the terrorist group Daesh," he said, using an Arabic acronym for IS.
"They are the ones who target civilians and the cadres who are building this country," he told AFP.
The blast comes during a fragile nationwide ceasefire brokered by government ally Russia and rebel backer Turkey.
The truce came into effect on December 30, and is intended to pave the way for new peace talks in Kazakh capital Astana, which regime ally Iran is also helping organise.
But the ceasefire and the planned talks have been threatened by ongoing violence in the rebel-held Wadi Barada region outside Damascus, which is the main water source for the capital.
Overnight, the Observatory said seven Syrian soldiers and two civilians were killed in clashes.
Fighting in the region has continued despite the truce, which does not apply to IS or former Al-Qaeda affiliate Fateh al-Sham Front, known previously as Al-Nusra Front.
The government says Fateh al-Sham is present in Wadi Barada, and blames rebels there for cutting water to Damascus since December 22.
Rebels deny the jihadist group is in the region and say the mains supply was severed after government strikes hit pumping facilities in the area.

What a Fabulous Weekend!
Friday was my daughter's birthday. We celebrated all weekend with friends and family. Seems like just yesterday we were coming home from the hospital. How time flies!
Saturday I meandered out to my workshop. It's been way to cold to spend any amount of time out where there was no heat. What a joy! I made a lil something special for my mom that I'll share later this week and was quite content making findings.
And what excellent weather!...I think spring has finally sprung! We were outside a lot over the weekend and today is beautiful, in the mid 50's. Now if I could just shake this cold:(

Get Fit Friday - I've Been Lost!!!
Well...nothing until by boobs popped out of the top of my bra! Hahahaha! Ok...really...that's not funny! Over the past 3 weeks of my absence...I've gained a few pounds I think anywhere from 3-5lbs. I say, I think because I'm not so sure I'm trusting my scale but we'll see shortly. Now, it truly was my boobs popping out that made me just stop and take notice. My boobs always get the weight first and damn it...I am not buying bigger bras! So...now, I'm awake and conscious again! Whew!
I've started reading and sharing and again learning about peri-menopause, you know the years before menopause where you have the joy of experiencing quiet a few disturbing symptoms. Well, guess what? E xtreme hunger can be a sign of hormonal fluctuations. I mean I've been a "man don't make me fight you over that last bite," kind of girl...LOL! Ok...really...that's not funny! I've been a mess.
Well, I survived. A couple of pounds up. A good dose of chocolate...loved every bite. However, I never missed a date at the gym or a glass of water. That's the good news. The not so great news is now I've got to lose 18 or 20 lbs instead of 15 and my jar is empty. LOL! Ok..really...that's not funny!
I've again learned something about myself, I really do have a weight threshold. I feel stuffed and tired. Although, I haven't missed a day and enjoy my workouts...they are a bit tougher with only a few added pounds. I seriously must've been living in a coma when I allowed myself to go all the way up to 285 lbs. Whoa!
Well, I'm glad to say, I'm alive, I'm well, I'm here and I'm in control...again.
Until next week..be well, be healthy, BE STRONG! This too shall pass!

I feel your pain Tiare. Menopause (in all its' stages) is difficult to deal with. Accept that you're human, OK you gained a few pounds but you're aware and you're doing s'thing about it.ReplyDelete
Hugs xx
It doesn't matter how often you fall, as long as you get back up! So glad to know that you are back on track! Now let's do this!ReplyDelete
Right there with ya! Right now, it's little Debbie oatmeal cakes. Trying hard to put the breaks on. I am still managing 4 days in the gym a week, so I haven't really seen a big gain. Thank goodness for that.ReplyDelete

HOT FLASHES ARE EVIL!!! I've gone through an emotional and physical rollercoaster over the past few months. Menopause combined with a diagnosis of Fibromyalgia sent me into a food frenzy. I need to lose 12 lbs. I can't do too much exercise due to the Osteoarthritis in my knees, upper spine, lower back, and hands along with the fibro, so I'm still trying to figure out what I can and can't do!!ReplyDelete
I don't work out at ALL - my only exercise is the walking that do on my commute to work.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Remember what Donnie McClurkin sang..."We fall down, but we get up"ReplyDelete
Get back 'up' girl. You can do it.

Figure at 145 per cent of GDP is 'very high by any measure', says IMF's David Lipton
IMF sounds warning on China's corporate debt
China's corporate debt risks sparking a bigger crisis if the authorities fail to tackle it, the International Monetary Fund has warned.
It is the latest red flag over China's ballooning debt, which rose to a record 237 per cent of gross domestic product in the first quarter on the back of massive lending designed to boost economic growth.
That has put the subject to the fore of this year's annual IMF review of the Chinese economy with a team from the Fund set to conclude its latest monitoring mission on Tuesday.
"Corporate debt remains a serious — and growing — problem [in China] that must be addressed immediately and with a commitment to serious reforms," said David Lipton, the IMF's number two and the leader of its latest mission, which ends on Tuesday.
Speaking in Shenzhen, where then-paramount leader Deng Xiaoping kicked off China's experiments with capitalism more than three decades ago, Mr Lipton pointed to the potential risk to the global economy.
