El habiente es muy AgradableLa ubicación permite tener cerca de todo: Plazas Comerciales, Museos, Restaurantes, Etc.Where to begin? This place was absolutely perfect. It had everything I wanted and more. The neighborhood was very safe, nice, central, and walking distance from good bars, restaurants, and shopping. There was an organic juice bar only a few blocks up! The room was not only comfortable and spacious but well appointed. The bathroom was lovely and even had a designer shower... slate tiles bordered by rocks, and a rain-shower showerhead. I had a balcony to the street. And best of all was the service, which was impeccable. I felt completely at home, attended, and cared for. I can't rave enough. I will be back and I will recommend to anyone going to Mexico City. Fantastic value.

We are located between two really cool, funky dynamic neighborhoods: Roma and Condesa ( recognized both as the most vibrant areas of town, spoiling its visitors with an array of bars, shops, restaurants, galleries and grocery stores ).vercy clean, wonderful service and good position! Would like to live again!Haohao2017-03-06T00:00:00ZMy friend Sally loved this place because it is clean, charming and in a great location. However, the shared Jack & Jill bathroom gave her a few problems. The sliding bolt used by her neighbors to lock the bathroom against her room woke her up late at night. And another time the neighbors forgot to unlock her bathroom door, so she was unable to use it for a shower. (There is another half bath). But overall, for the price, it was great.Rita 2015-12-01T00:00:00ZThis place is beautiful and exactly like the photo's, it's super peaceful and in an amazing neighborhood. Francisco and his staff are incredibly friendly and were extra accommodating - my flight landed at 5am and Francisco was there early to check me in, he even drove me to my next destination in mexico after my stay. Truly amazing. I will definitely recommend this place to my friends and hope to stay here again.

Had a great time here!!Sunjin2016-06-04T00:00:00ZFrom the moment the doors opened for us when we arrived until the day we caught an uber back to the airport, my pal and I felt welcomed at this amazing B&B. The design is impeccable and you simply can't stay in a more central location in DF. This was my first time visiting and I fell in love with the city. I think staying at this place made it that much more easy. The room is small but has everything you need and it is so comfy. Breakfast every morning, filtered water, fridge to keep leftovers... I couldn't have asked for more. I will definitely be back to visit and I hope to stay at this location again. THANK YOU!Melissa2015-11-03T00:00:00ZWe had a wonderful time staying with Francisco and Rodolfo. Their space is very well designed with lots of cool decor. Rodolfo was very helpful and provided us with special maps for galleries in the area. There is breakfast with coffee every morning and the area where the room is located in Roma Norte is surrounded by great places to eat and drink. We had so much fun! From this location you can walk to the park and metro easily- very central. Sarah2015-11-08T00:00:00ZGreat central and safe location with easy access to everything we wanted to see. The room was as advertised with an adjoining bathroom which we shared with the room next door. Everything was super clean and nicely decorated. The room we had was small but we weren't there to hang out in the room and we enjoyed the use of the beautiful courtyard. The hosts were very pleasant, welcoming and helpful. They provide filtered drinking water and the breakfast is adequate with lots of fresh fruit, cereal and bread for toast. (The coffee is a bit disappointing, but we are coffee geeks.) I would recommend this accommodation to anyone. A real value for the money and very, very well located in one of Mexico City's hippest neighborhoods. Great restaurants very nearby. The Turibus can be picked up around the corner. Lots of police everywhere.Thomas2016-01-15T00:00:00ZRodolfo is an excellent host that provided us with a map with points of interest (from entertainment, food, to pharmacy, etc.) and is incredibly quick to respond to any questions or concerns! The location is a dream. Close to public transit, food, grocery store, and night life. Highly recommend staying at Entre Barrios! I will definitely stay here again the next time I am in Mexico City.

Doña Lola our star chef with over 25 years refining her craft will prepare your included breakfast. Let us be your host, we waiting you with open arms.We are in La Condesa, one of the most trendy neighborhoods at Mexico City, strategically located in the area of greatest cultural and entertainment activities of the city. A 15-minute walk from Chapultepec, Polanco, Roma, La Zona Rosa and Colonia Juarez where you can find bars, libraries, theaters, art galleries, shops of all kinds, crafts and antiques markets. Very near the Historical Center.
Let us be your host and discover why there is no other like MexicoWe stayed in 2 locations in Mexico City (and a third in Valle de Bravo) and Don Jacinto's was our best lodging experience, overall in Mexico. Don Jacinto was extremely communicative throughout the entire process, and was very patient with me when I went off the radar after my data ran out in Mexico. She happily and readily greeted us when we arrived well into the evening and showed us all the amenities, specifications, and securities of our room and the building. The breakfast was very good and extremely authentic food that kept us full throughout the morning. Meals included two hot options, such as chorizo eggs, tamales, or, tacos, or eggs and ham, always with fresh pastries, juice (papaya?) and tea and coffee. It was quite substantial. The location is very convenient for walking around the Condesa neighborhood of the city, and has great, multi-level security features (not that the neighborhood felt unsafe in any way). The building and dining area had a bit of an industrial feel, but the room itself was homey and the Licha room's bed was very clean and comfortable! The bathroom was presented and maintained as extremely clean throughout our stay. The shower was honestly one of my favorite parts of the experience, with a broad shower head, great pressure, and hot water (which, believe it or not, was not present in our other lodging experiences). Overall, Don Jacinto managed to provide both a professional and personal experience, and remained communicative and responsive to us throughout our stay, even taking the initiative to reach out to me on her own, even though we had everything we needed. I recommend staying here if you're looking for a low key and convenient place to stay in Mexico City. Jonathan2016-12-13T00:00:00ZHighly recommend staying at Don Jacinto's for a unique and pampering experience : they have a 5 star concierge service , making sure your are extremely comfortable and helping you with any logistic of your trip in the city . The place is in a great location within walking distance to great restaurants and parks . The rooms have been designed with a modern but cozy aesthetic paying attention to every detail: it is beautiful, very spacious, immaculate and charming . The bed is delicious . The breakfast is carefully prepared each day- SUPERB. Everything here abounds with TLC.ana2017-02-05T00:00:00ZLoved this little gem! Super quiet and relaxing after a busy day of exploring the city. The bed is SO comfy! It was hard not to try to sleep in :P, I also really liked that the bedroom has a little work station / desk (behind the bed) so I was able to get some work done. The hosts were superb and made sure I had everything I needed, OH and breakfast was delish. Definitely coming back.Gabriel2016-12-23T00:00:00ZAmazing place amazing people Will always stay you fill at home great decor super clean really guys I don't have words to explain what a great place Beds the bathroom the manager they where so good to me.

The room was clean with a great shower, comfortable bed and an outdoor space to stretch out in. Very secure with great hosts.Charles2017-03-06T00:00:00ZWe had a lovely experience at Don Jacinto. It's a great location that is close to three main neighborhoods - Polanco, Roma, and Condesa - along with being close to the subway and main roads to access other parts of Mexico City. The room was comfortable and very clean, the design was great, breakfast was delicious and our hosts were very communicative. Due to nearby city construction the water was briefly shut off overnight, but the hosts worked overnight to make sure it was restored by early morning. Overall, I would highly recommend it to friends and would gladly stay here again.Ian2017-04-02T00:00:00ZCannot recommend this place enough. We booked it for 2 nights but extended to 4 because we couldn't leave. Beautiful room, perfect light, all amenities you could need or want, very secure, and the hosts were an important part of our phenomenal Mexico City adventure. Location is ideal - gorgeous architecture and close to the park and many of the best restaurants in DF. And the breakfast alone is nearly worth the cost of the stay. Stay here before everyone figures it out and it's booked year round. John2016-10-31T00:00:00ZA very great stay! Even though you are close to all the action of condesa and roma the LICHA room is in the back of Don Jacinta and has a very quiet and comfy feel. The outdoor area is simple and nice for reading.

You are free to use the kitchen, living room, and dining room as well as a sitting room with a piano. You can find me in my study almost anytime of the day or evening.
The layout of this spacious apartment affords a lot of privacy. Your room has a private bathroom including a shower and is accessed by a hall which runs from the living rooms, along the bedroom section, and then to the kitchen, which leads back to the living room. Our neighborhood is friendly, but quiet, with people lingering to chat on the street. There is a bakery with a deli and a pharmacy on our block. All services, including coffee shops and restaurants for a variety of pocketbooks, laundromats, a supermarket, and dry cleaners are within a short few block. You can buy fresh fruits and vegetables in our Tuesday street market. Occasionally street musicians wander through. We think that Condesa is probably the best place to stay when in Mexico City and Jeannes apartment is well located with many bars, restaurants and quiet walking streets and parks nearby. The apartment is very large and light and in a rather large charming historic building complex with an old world character.

Jeanne is a lovely lady and she went above and beyond by getting us fresh fruit everyday, showing us around the neighborhood, and frequently checking in with us to make sure we were having a wonderful stay. She even provided detailed directions for us to give our cab driver so that we wouldn't have any issues getting to her place. Her large apartment was very cool and funky; our room was clean and well appointed, and the location of the apartment was extremely central and safe.

N RECENT years, wind energy has become an important I part of electrical generation in many countries and its im-
portance is continuing to increase. For this reason, and in order to investigate the effects the wind farms will produce on the grid, adequate models must he used. One of the problems that wind energy will create in electrical power systems is the dependence of the injected power on the wind speed. The wind speed cannot he predicted, but the proh- ability of a particular wind speed occurring can be estimated. This can be done if the probability distribution is known by as- suming it to be a Weibull distribution [I] or a Rayleigh one, as recommended in [Z]. Once the wind speed is known, the power injected into the grid can be calculated by means of the wind turbine (WT) power curve. So, in order to assess the impact of wind energy on the steady- state security of electrical networks, the problem can be planned from a probabilistic point of view, by knowing the probability of injecting a determined power, if previously the probability of a given wind speed is known. When a wind farm with asynchronous generation is to be in- cluded in a load flow analysis, the PQ and RX [3], [4] buses are the most commonly used. When the conventional PQ bus model is used, the real and re- active powers have constant values, although some authors [5], [61 propose methods for modifying these values in order to rep- resent loads depending either on the voltage or on the frequency. When the PX bus model is used, the real power is known and the reactive power is calculated as a function of the magnetizing reactance of the generators. The PX bus is not studied in this paper.
Under the assumption of wind energy generation by means of asynchronous machines, the PQ bus can he improved, by taking

some features relating to the WT into account. This is developed in the paper as one of the proposed methods. A better approximation can be obtained with the other method, in which the induction machine is modeled by means of an RX hiis based on the two following facts:
1) The machine can be simulated in steady-state as an impedance if its parameters and the slip are known. 2) The slip of the machine can be calculated if its power coefficient curve and the wind speed are known. Both methods suppose prior knowledge of the WT features. The turbine’s power curve is generally supplied by the mannfac- turer. When the induction generator parameters are not known, they must be estimated. As an example, a method is presented in 171 for estimating parameter values of the exact equivalent circuit of a three-phase induction motor.
11. PQ MODELOF AN ASYNCHRONOUSWT
A way to model a wind farm as a PQ bus is to assume a generated real power and a given power factor, with which the consumed reactive power is calculated. Some improvements can be achieved if the steady-state model of the induction machine is taken into account. The model shown in Fig. 1 is assumed. In this model, applying the conservation of complex power theorem (Boucherot’s theorem) allows the following expression to be written for the reactive power consumed by the machine (positive when consumed):
(Vz+2171~)~- 4P2(R2+X2)
Z(R2 +XZ)
where V is the voltage, P is the real power (positive when in- jected into the grid), X is the sum of the stator and rotor leakage reactances, X, is the reactance of the capacitors bank, andR is the sum of the stator and rotor resistances.

Reactive power as a funclion of wind speed
In 181 the following expression is proposed for the reactive power consumed by a WT as a function of its real power:
Q = -QUI- QiP - QnP2
wherc Qo,91,and Q2 are experimentally obtained. An approximation of (1) to (2) can be made by means of the McLaurin polynomial (see the Appendix), by taking into account the first two derivatives of (I), neglecting the resistance R for the sake of simplicity and finally writing the expression for the reactive power as:
The reactive power curve as a function of wind speed can be seen in Fig. 2, under the assumption that the voltage V equals 1 p.u. Line A corresponds to a PQ bus with a constant power factor o€ 0.96, line B to thc reactive power obtained with (1) and line C to the reactive power obtained with (3). Line RX corresponds to the results obtained with the RX model that will be explained latcr. If the wind speed is desired to be the input datum for the problem, the real power can be obtained as a function of it. This is done by means of the power curve for the turbine and next equation [l]:
P = ipAlJ"c,,
where A is the rotor area, p is the density of air, U is the wind speed and cp is the power coefficient. The power coefficient is obtainable as a function of the tip speed ratio, X = (uR/U),where w is the rotor speed and K is its radius. The power and power coefficient curves are given in the Appendix.
111. RX MODELOF AN ASYNCHRONOUSWT
The other method proposed here consists of modeling the ma- chine as an RX bus, following the next three steps:
I) Calculate the power that each WT can extract from the wind for a given wind speed and a given rotor speed, ac- cording to its power coefficient curve.
Calculate the power that each WT can generate, according to the results of the load flow analysis, and to the rotor specd given in step I).
3) Compare both powers and look for the value of the slip, for which the electrical and the mechanical powers coin- cide, for the wind speed given. The possible working points can he secn in Fig. 3. These points arc where the gcuerator curve crosses the turbine curves. The solution ohtainedusing the PQ model is also shown in order to observe the differcnt solutions given by each of the modcls. The power curve of the WT used in the simulations has been obtained €or a constant rotor speed of 34 ipm, which means a frequency of 50.29 Hr, given a gear ratio of 44.38, and also that the machine has four poles. This leads point A of Fig. 3 to be assumed as the solution given when using the PQ model, whilst point R is the solution given by the RX model. In both cases, the wind spccd is considcred to be lJ:+ins-'. The RX model is based on thc steady-state model o€ the induction machine, where it is represented by means of an impedance = R,+ jS, + (jXnll1((&/B) + jXa))and a shunt capacitor with susceptance /Ic, The magnetizing branch is here considered to be located between the stator and the rotor, which is a better approximation to the real machine. The mechanical power developed by a WT can be calculated with (4). A first, inexact way of working can be to fix the mechanical power and to assume that the slip can be calculated from the following equation:
This equation is obtained, based on the steady-state model of the machine (Fig. I), by applying Boucherot's theorem and assuming the stator resistance to be negligible. The iterative process cousisls of the followiiig: an initial value of the slip is considcred at the bcginning of the process, a suit- able value of which is the machine's rated slip, or the value ob- tained from (5). With this value introduced in the expression for %, an initial load flow analysis can be carried out. With the results obtained, the mechanical power of thc machine can be calculated as /Jn8 = -ly</t,<((l- .s)/.), where In is therms value of the rotor current, calculated from the rms value of the
stator current 1, as 111 = (jAr7,6/(~<lt/s)+ j(x2+ xm))ia,
wheren andi, are thc phasors for the rotor and statorcurrents. On the other hand, taking into account thc wind specd and the slip of the machine, the value of the power coefficicnt can be calculated with the equation cT, = j(X) and the power extracted from the wind with (4). When these two powers are uot equal,
then a process of convergence for both values begins. In this case, the slip is modified
sg = sk-1
where sk-% and sb are the present slip and the new slip (slip that must be taken into account in the next load flow analysis), respectively, and:

in the wind farm. In short, the algorithm carried out to simulate the wind farm as an RX bus is as follows:
1) Begin with s = snonlin each machine, snombeing the rated slip of the same. With this value, calculate the impedance z. 2) With these values, model the wind farm as an RX bus in- cluding the admittances of the machines in the admittance matrix and in the corresponding terms of the Jacobian.
As a result of the first power flow, the voltages in the buses can be obtained. With these, calculate the mechan- ical power of the machine with the expression I:, =

With the value of s, calculate X and e,,, iind the power extracted from the wind with (4). Compare both powers and, if they are not equal, recalcu- late s by means of (6) and go to step 2. If they are equal, the algorithm finishes.

The advantage of the PQ model is that the real power is cal- culated as afunction of the wind speed for the first iteration of the power flow analysis, and from then on its value remains as
a constant. The reactive power depends on the real power and the bus
voltage. Since the power is assumed constant, the only variable
is the bus voltage. There are two possibilities for calculating the
* The first of them consists of considering the voltage as having a constant value. In this case the specified real and reactive powers are known in the first iteration and remain unchanged. The bus behaves as a conventional PQ bus. With this simplification the error is not significant.
* The second way consists of calculating the reactive power as a function of the voltage. In this case the value of the specified reactive power must be updated in each iteration. Either way, the convergence characteristics when the PQ bus model is used are similar to the case of the conventional PQ model.
When the RX model is used, there are two iterative processes. One of them is due to the load flow analysis and the other to the calculation of the slip of the asynchronous generator. From the point of view of the load flow analysis, the RX bus behaves as
a PQ bus, where real And reactive powers are 0. Due to this, no
additional load flow iterations are necessary. Nevertheless, ob- taining the final slip usually involves between 2 and 6 iterations.
In Table I the number of iterations can be seen for an example
carried out with a wind farm containing 12individually modeled WT's, under the assumption that the wind speed is the same in all the machines, and considering two different initial values for
the slip. The value of -0.007 corresponds to the rated slip.
v. THEWIND FARM MODEL
The model of the entire wind farm must take all its machines into account. In general, there can be four possible combinations relating
to wind speed and machine type. The machines in the wind farm
can be of the same kind or not. At the same time, the wind speed can be considered the same for all the machines of the wind farm
or not. Additionally, the wind farm can be modeled as a PQ or
as an RX bus. The real power injected and the reactive power consumed by the wind farm are the sum of the real power injected and the re- active power consumed by all the machines. So, if the machines are of the same type and the wind speed is considered to be the same, the calculation of the power as a function of the wind

specd must be made only once in each iteration of thc load flow analysis.
If thecc are different types of machines in the wind firm, with poWI:,~AND CoEpFICIENT O~ TURRINP i\s op
different power curves, the calculations must he madc individ- ually. and finally they must be added together if the PQ model is used, or the equivalent impedance inust he calculated if the wind farm is modeled as an RX bus. Even if the wind specd is considered constant for the whole wind farm, its layout can provoke different wind speeds to be considercd for differcut WT's, especiiilly if the direction OS the wind is taken into account, and this direction coincides with the alignment of the WT's. When this occurs, a WT located behind another one, seen from the direction of the wind speed, will be affcctcd by thc wake created by the one upwind. In this case the effcctive wind speed for the WT downwind can be calculated following the model proposed in 191. For the case simulated in this paper the following assumptions are made:
The wind farm is composed of two rows of WT's, sepa- rated by a distance large enough to make sure that there is no intcraction bctween both rows whcn the wind is per- pendicular to them. -The WT's in each row arc near enough to make the intcr- action among several WT's important, due to wake effects. In this case, the iuodel of [9] will be used. In the case of the wind heing perpendicular to the rows of turbines, and following the first of the slated assumptions, the wind speed is thc same for all the machines. The probability of this circumstance occurring can be obtained by combining the wind speed distribution and the wind rose. In thc case of the wind being parallel to the rows of gencra- tors, the wind speed given is valid for the first WT, but for the other turbines, the approximation given in [9] is applied. So, for thc second WT, the wind speed is calculated by means of next equation:

variation with height. If the explained procedure is followed, the wind speed for a WT can be calculated as the product of the wind speed of the WT located in front of it and a constant equal to Ii. As an example, for a wind farm where the rotors of the WT's have a length of 30 m, the distance between them is 75 111 and the hub height is 31 ni, if a value of 2 . is avumed.'. for the roughness Icngth, the value of k becomes 0.05 1, If the wind speed has a value of 15 ms-' for the first WT, and a value of cL = 0.2 is assumed, the wind speed of the second turbine can be found as the product of 15 ms-l and the constant'I/ = 0.YS. This constant will be used to calculate the wind speeds for all turbines. So, for the ith turbine the wind speed can be approxi- mated by U, = KillJ.
where (11is the wind speed fbr the first turbine, UI is the wind speed for the second turbine, cl is the tnrbine thrust cocfficient, I1 is thc rotor diamcter, A' is the axial distance between both WT's and Q is thc wake decay constant. In [9]thc wake decay constant is calculated as Q = (A/ In (li/z")), /I M 0.5, where /L is the hub height, and zu is the roughncss length, defined in 121as the extrupolrrtecl height at which the mean wind ,speed becomes 0 f the vet:ticul wind projile i,s assurnerl lo have a logarithmic
As an example, load flow analyses are carried out on the system in Fig. 4. The load flow algorithm used for the analysis is based on a Newton-Raphson method. There are 50 identical stall-regulated WT's in the wind farm, where thc generators are induction inachincs with the following parameters: II, = 0.00708 62, XI = 0.0713'20 (2,

Its rated voltage is 660 V. In Table 111the powers the WT's can obtain from the wind for several wind speeds are given. These data are supplied assuming that the machine rotor speed is 34 rpm, so the function e, = f(X) can easily he deduced. The area swept by the blades of the WT's is 531 m2 and the rated power is 330 kW. The simulations are carried out for wind speeds going from 7 to 21 ms-' in steps of2 ins-'. The results for the real power, reactive power and voltage are given in Table 11, and in Figs. 5-7. The results were obtained under the assumption that the wind speed is the same for all machines and the machines are idle compensated.
'bo models for wind farms have been developed in order to achieve better results in the load flow analysis than those given by the conventional models. The first purpose of the paper was to demonstrate that, based on the steady-state of the induction machine, the RX model oh- tains the working point of this for each wind speed, and is the better approximation when the wind speed is the input datum. However, the conventional PQ model can be improved, and good results can be obtained by means of it, with the advantage that it does not involve additional iterative processes. The advantage of considering the wind speed as an input is that, knowing its frequency distribution (Weibull or Rayleigh distribution) in the location of the wind farm, a estimation can be made of the time that a given wind farm will produce a de- termined power, which can he of interest when, for example, studying steady-state security.
THE POWER COEFFICIENT CURVE
The manufacturer of a WT usually provides its power curve. From this curve and the rated rotor speed, the power coefficient curve can he obtained. For the WT employed in the simulations here, both curves are given in Table 111, as functions of the wind speed. The use of the power coefficient curve in the proposed algo- rithm for the RX model involves interpolating in those cases in which the calculated value of the tip speed ratio does not coin- cide with a value from the table. The coefficient can he alterna- tively calculated as:

Walmart carries a huge selection of TVs from top brands, so it's easy to find one that meets your needs.TVs come in a wide range of sizes, from less than 20 inches to more than 60. In addition to the space where you'll put your TV, it's important to consider where you'll sit while you watch it. You'll want a larger TV if you'll be viewing it from further away and a smaller one if you'll be sitting close up.If you're a TV or film buff, you'll probably get a lot of use out of a smart TV, which will allow you to stream content from providers like VUDU, YouTube, Netflix, Hulu and Vimeo. It will also be helpful to get a TV that offers lots of connectivity options for your Blu-ray player, Apple TV and other devices.

A2K - A Seasonal Veg Table: Dwindling Harvest
Dave @ OurHappyAcres 19 September 2016 at 14:40
A gift of veggies is always a nice gift! I will be interested to see what you do with the nasturtium seeds. I've used the flowers before, but never the seeds.
Shaheen 21 September 2016 at 20:05
Thanks Dave. I will share the nasturtium recipe next week.
Mark Willis 19 September 2016 at 15:05
The plums look good, Shaheen. The ones in the shops these days always seem to have been picked under-ripe. They are green and crunchy, not juicy and soft!
Thanks Mark. Your right the shop ones are pretty hard too.
The VegHog 19 September 2016 at 20:11
Nice produce you have there! Can't wait to see the recipes cooked with them.
Thanks VegHog, I've made loads with the plums so far.
Lou@RainbowChard 19 September 2016 at 21:42
You've still got quite a nice selection of harvests there Shaheen. The nasturtium seeds look particularly lovely, are you going to pickle them? I've not grown them before.
Shaheen 21 September 2016 at 20:06
Thanks Lou. Yes, I am going to pickle them. I hope to share the recipe next week.
michelle hamer 19 September 2016 at 22:01
Love the tomatoes, so colorful and tasty looking.
Shaheen 21 September 2016 at 20:07
David Velten 20 September 2016 at 02:19
My harvests are dwindling as well, it's the season. But you have nasturtium pods. I checked my plants and no pods, which was a disappointment because I wanted to try this recipe, which you may also like: http://www.wildfermentation.com/cucumber-nasturtium-kimchee/
Shaheen 21 September 2016 at 20:08
Hi David. Yes, indeed I have nasturtium pods, so sorry that your plants have yielded none which is quite strange really. I won't need to grow the flowers next year they come back ever year now from self seeding, but i have picked some. Thanks for the recipe, i have pickled these already, but hope to pick some more at the w/e, so I will def. try the recipe you shared if I can get my hand on all the ingredients, will let you know.
Mae Travels 20 September 2016 at 11:08
You make it so clear that the summer is over! Our farmers' market is still brimming with produce, but more and more of the stalls have the later crops such as squash, pumpkins, dried corn sheaves, and the like.
Shaheen 21 September 2016 at 20:10
It is over here Mae, with Autumn equinox tomorrow.
I love the Autumn season, the colours and the vegetables it brings.
Kimmy theVegan 22 September 2016 at 18:35
Wow - look at all of that beautiful garden bounty!
Your plums are so pretty! What a gorgeous colour.
You are a gardening goddess =)
Shaheen 22 September 2016 at 18:46
Thank you Kimmy, I wish I was a gardening goddess, I need to get back into gardening if I am honest, slowly but surely it is happening

UPDATE 1-Pressure rises in Mexico to reject spectrum bid | Reuters
UPDATE 1-Pressure rises in Mexico to reject spectrum bid
July 22, 2010 / 10:42 PM / in 7 years
* Ruling party deputy threatens to challenge auction
* One commissioner defends process
* Televisa-Nextel venture to challenge Slim’s operator (Adds commissioner’s comment, byline)
By Noel Randewich and Tomas Sarmiento
MEXICO CITY, July 22 (Reuters) - Political pressure mounted on Thursday for Mexican authorities to reject a bid by broadcaster Televisa and its partner Nextel for a block of wireless spectrum in an auction meant to improve competition.
The Nextel-Televisa venture was the only bidder for the 30 MHz nationwide block in the 1.7 GHz band with a bid of $14 million, raising eyebrows because the amount is only a fraction of the $400 million America Movil and Telefonica offered when they competed for other blocks of spectrum. But one regulator defended the spectrum auction’s structure.
Javier Corral, a deputy from President Felipe Calderon’s conservative ruling party, vowed to try to stop the communications ministry from awarding the block to Nextel and Televisa, according to a published report. Corral has said previously that the media giant is favored by the government.
“(Communications Minister Juan) Molinar is selling the spectrum at a bargain price. If the spectrum tender goes through under these conditions, it will be a national theft,” daily Reforma on Thursday reported Corral as saying.
Corral was not available to comment.
The auctions are at the center of the government’s push to stoke competition in an industry long dominated by Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim. His America Movil (AMXL.MX) is the leading wireless operator in Mexico, with Spain’s Telefonica (TEF.MC) a distant second.
Telecom regulator Cofetel is evaluating the bids in the 1.7 GHz auction, a band useful for fast-growing data services, and its decision will have to be approved by the communications ministry.
Gonzalo Martinez, one of five voting commissioners at Cofetel, told Reuters that Corral and other critics were missing the point of the frequency auction.
As the bids stand, spectrum in the 1.7 GHz band would be reasonably well distributed between America Movil, Telefonica and the Nextel-Televisa venture, he said.
“A regulator’s goal is to put the spectrum in the hands of competitors to create better conditions of competition,” said Martinez. “If we reduce everything to who paid more, I think we’d be we sullying the tender’s objectives.”
The venture of Nextel, controlled by NII Holdings (NIHD.O), and Televisa (TLVACPO.MX) was the only group eligible to bid for the 30 MHz nationwide block because of rules capping the amount of spectrum any one operator can own.
Leftist opposition Sen. Carlos Sotelo threatened to summon Cofetel’s commissioners to the Senate to explain how the auction process was defined, Reforma said. Sotelo could not be reached for comment.
Corral has made a name for himself fighting against legislation seen as favorable to Televisa, which is the main source of news for most Mexicans, although he has often been at odds with others in his party.

Focus on Health: March 2016
A few thoughts stirred in my ageing brain, but I quickly moved on from the inappropriate prescription of antibiotics, to musing on insect and spider bites in this Great Southern Land called Australia. When the young bride and I first arrived down under we were regaled with stories of the most venomous snakes in the world, spiders the size of smartie with enough toxic venom in them to kill a horse - and all of these creatures are to be found in your backyard or under the toiler seat!! I also vividly remember a certain visiting Bishop develop a visible blood lust when called upon to deal with a large Tarantula which was holding court in our bathroom. The poor creature was drowned in Mortein by our Special Forces Prelate! I later learned to love those large, hairy arachnids who love nothing more than to dine on mosquitoes. Those buzzing, pesky insects, which can make an evening barbecue a living nightmare, are much more of a health risk than any spider is - just think Ross River Virus, Dengue fever ... even Malaria.

red back spider,
I've just attended a 2 day workshop on Advanced Life Support and Advanced Trauma Life Support run by Western Australia's Rural Health Organization. Believe me, it was intense and hugely informative. I don't think I've pumped out that much adrenaline role-playing emergency scenarios in a long, long time! I came away with a greater confidence that even as a GP with nearly four decades of experience that I can do more to help the people I care for in emergency situations.
Advanced Life Support,
