They like to move it, move it: outside play helps children meet movement targets
Preschool-aged children are twice as active, and less sedentary when outdoors compared to indoors, a US study which fitted children with GPS technology while in a childcare setting has found.
During the study, children were fitted with GPS technology, and their movements monitored. The results may impact the way outdoor play spaces are accessed and designed in Australian early childhood education and care (ECEC) settings.
The amount of time preschool-aged children spend in non-parental care in the US is over 30 hours per week – comparable with Australia where children spend nearly 25 hours a week in non-parental care. With ECEC spaces in both countries increasingly responsible for ensuring children’s physical activity guidelines are met, the research is likely to be of interest to educators and providers in both countries.
Best practice guidelines for childcare in the US recommend two to three hours of daily active outdoor play, totalling 60 to 90 minutes for preschoolers, again, similar to Australian recommendations. As in Australia, nearly half of US preschool-age children are not attaining the daily requirements.
Understanding and documenting the differences in preschoolers’ activity levels indoors and outdoors, as in this research, has the potential to influence policy, and encourage practices which promote physical activity in childcare settings. The findings also have implications for the design and setting of services, with an increase of services which have no outdoor space.
The two centres where children had the most autonomy, with children moving in and out of the buildings as they chose, showed the highest rates of outdoor play.
More boys (66 per cent) than girls (35 per cent) spent at least 60 minutes per day outside, with the average outdoor time for boys being almost double that of girls (70 minutes for boys, 39 minutes for girls).
Although the researchers did not suggest a correlation between boys being restricted to indoor environments and small body movements with behavioural outcomes, the author suggests there is an existing theoretical and research knowledge base which shows a link between a lack of time outside and opportunities to be active, with behavioural outcomes.
Additional research has shown that structured outdoor playtime – where adults were designing play spaces and directing and assisting with play – increased the activity level of children compared with free play with no direction.
Shorter, more frequent intervals of outdoor play yielded similar results, suggesting that improving outdoor environments, conducting educator training, and scheduling more frequent, shorter intervals of outside play may improve activity levels.
The study concluded by saying the current findings reinforce the idea that preschoolers are over twice as active and less sedentary when outdoors, placing the onus on policy makers, health care providers and others who have power and influence over children’s outdoor spaces to promote and support more outdoor play.

An Australian technology expert looks at the pros and cons of New Zealand’s contact tracing app, and compares it with the Australian version, COVIDSafe.
New Zealanders finally have access to the government’s new tracing app to help people monitor their movements as lockdown continues to ease.
As businesses can now open, the NZ COVID Tracer app allows people to keep a register of the places they visit. This “digital diary” can be used to contact people if it finds they have been in the same place as someone infected with Covid-19.
But the app has some significant shortcomings. These won’t be addressed until at least June, which raises questions about whether it has been released too soon.
How do you set up and use the app?
Registering for the app is a four-step process. When you sign up for an account you are presented with a privacy statement. This tells you your personal information is securely stored by the Ministry of Health.
The app then asks you to enter your email address and pick a password.
Some may find the password requirements too difficult to meet, especially if you struggle to remember a password of at least ten characters of mixed lower and uppercase letters and numbers.
After entering your email, you will receive a verification code via email to complete the registration.
In step 4, the app asks you to enter your name and a phone number. The phone number is not mandatory as I was able to create an account using just my first and last names.
An “Account created” message will then appear before you get to a home page with three navigational items:
- dashboard (this is the current home page)
- scan (where you can scan the QR code, I’ll explain why in a moment)
- my profile (where you can log off, update your contact details and address, provide feedback and access a range of other general services such as privacy and security statements).
By scrolling down the dashboard page, you are presented with features to register your details, update your address and “do a daily self-isolation checking” – this last feature is labelled as coming soon.
Two types of registrations?
The register option asks you to enter your first name, any middle name, last name, phone number, date of birth, gender and ethnicity.
This seems confusing as you must go through two forms of registration. First when registering for an account, as we saw earlier, and second when registering your details here.
These two processes should have been streamlined into one. The app also asks for gender and ethnicity details, but the justification provided is too generic, saying this “helps us confirm we are serving all New Zealanders”.
So how does the app work?
The app helps you keep track of the places you visit, like checking in to a restaurant on Facebook. But this process is not done automatically. To add a place you visit to your digital diary, you must scan a QR code available at that location. It should be in the form of a poster advertised at the entrance of a business.
But this means businesses must register for a QR code, via Business Connect, and have it clearly advertised at their premises.
By scanning the QR code, the app will then log the location, date and time you visit this business. You can’t manually enter the details of places you visit.
How will authorities contact you?
The information provided during registration will be sent to a National Close Contact Service (NCCS) so it can contact you if you are identified as having been in close contact with someone who tests positive for Covid-19.
An update is expected in June, to allow you to transmit your digital diary of the locations you have visited to the NCCS. Until this function is implemented, if the NCCS contacts you, you will have to read out the locations you have signed into with the app.
How will they know if you have been in contact with someone infected? Not via the app but through contact tracing procedures already in place. Until the auto upload is implemented, I don’t believe they should have released the app.
This approach is a workaround for not using GPS to log your locations, as in the Facebook restaurant check-in scenario. This could be to avoid issues pertaining to location privacy.
But this approach has shortcomings. It is not reliable to use in commonly used or open spaces, such as food courts, school entrances, airports, train stations or any other places where you could come in contact with other people. This will require the use of lots of QR codes and lots of scanning.
The app is not useful when visiting friends and family. You don’t expect them to have QR codes at their houses, and they can’t actually get one.
Comparing the NZ and Australian apps
So how does the New Zealand app compare to Australia’s COVIDSafe app?
The New Zealand app is not scalable to use in Australia as it would require Australian businesses to register for a Business Connect QR code, which they can’t. Likewise, Australia’s app is not for New Zealand.
Visitors to either country would need to use the app specific to that country.
Countries such as Iceland, Italy and Norway have not shied away from using GPS to track their citizens’ whereabouts. Australia and Singapore opted to use Bluetooth technology for contact tracing without accessing people’s location information.
New Zealand has opted for a softer approach to Covid-19 contact tracing by using only a digital diary. But the director general of health, Ashley Bloomfield, told Radio NZ Bluetooth technology should be added as an optional extra feature in June.
So, at this stage, the NZ COVID Tracer app seems to be a work in progress. It tries to balance or makes some trade-offs between privacy and usability. But this adds to the burden on businesses (the need to set up QR codes) and has limited usefulness when visiting friends or relatives.
On May 5 this year, the New Zealand and Australian prime ministers released a joint statement to say they had:
[…] agreed to commence work on a trans-Tasman Covid-safe travel zone – easing travel restrictions between Australia and New Zealand. Such an arrangement would be put in place once it is safe to do so and necessary health, transport and other protocols had been developed and met.
If the Australian COVIDSafe and NZ COVID Tracer apps are to be part of the solution in opening up travel between the nations, much more work will be needed to make the two apps far more compatible with each other.

Though the show’s ratings are very low, The CW has renewed Nikita for a fourth season. Word is that it will be a shorter season than usual — likely between six and 10 episodes.
Starring Maggie Q, Nikita has been averaging a 0.3 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 1.15 million viewers. That’s way down from last year’s 0.5 rating and 1.54 million averages.
Still, Nikita is relatively close to having enough episodes for syndication. At the end of season three, there will be 67 installments and a shortened fourth season won’t bring it to the 88 episode mark (a number considered to be the minimum for syndication).
Other genre shows have done just fine though with a lesser number (the original Star Trek’s 79 installments come to mind) and Nikita has a small cult following and is popular on services like Hulu. At the very least, a fourth season will allow the cast and crew to give the show a proper series finale if this is actually the last season.
What do you think? Are you glad that Nikita is coming back? How many episodes should they make?

Turkey is ready to take part in resolving the crisis in eastern Ukraine as a mediator, hoping for a peaceful settlement.
That’s according to Haber7 quoting Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan as saying while answering journalists' questions during a briefing held upon his return from Turkmenistan, Ukrinform reports.
"Our position is clear here. We stand for peace in the region, especially with regard to the Crimean Turks. We have repeatedly discussed the issue with friendly Russia and especially with Mr. Putin," Erdogan said.
Asked about the Russian military buildup on the border with Ukraine and Turkey’s possible mediation in settlement negotiations, given its good relations with both countries, the Turkish leader also expressed hope that peace would prevail in the region.
"We hope that the region will not become a war-torn zone. May this region further become a region where peace reigns. We’d like to see the attitude to this issue develop in a positive direction. There can be mediation in this regard, we can discuss this issue with them (Ukraine and Russia - ed.). We would like to take part in its solution, in discussion with both Ukraine and Mr. Putin," the outlet quoted the Turkish president as saying.
As Ukrinform reported earlier, Kyrylo Budanov, head of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry's Main Intelligence Directorate, said Russia had amassed more than 92,000 troops near Ukraine's borders and was preparing for an offensive that could be launched in late January-early February 2022.

Improve the brand and consumer experience at retail through a complete overhaul of the retail experience.
Key Performance Indicators:
- Drive incremental revenue and same-store sales
- Improve Net Promoter Scores
- Increase the cross-sell & up-sell of Western Union products & services
- Content Strategy
- Deployment Design & Planning
The result of consumer intercept & ethnographic research, customer experience mapping, path-to-purchase analysis and consumer persona development was a holistic retail design encompassing exterior & interior signage, way-finding and fixtures that reinforced customers' perception of Western Union as a modern yet reliable brand.
- High-impact signage & merchandising that builds awareness & engagement
- Relevant messaging at each customer touch point that creates additional engagement
- Simple, easy, repeatable transaction process
- Solutions appropriate across all retail footprints and retail zones
- Solutions that cover investment flexibility to allow for differentiation
Based on 70 in-person intercepts, an ethnographic research with 48 participants and Simmons Data, we developed consumer personas to paint a consumer-centric picture. Three consumer profiles served to inspire thinking about the desired experience:
- The Nomad: Moving money to stay afloat
- The Builder: Moving money to help others and manage budgets
- The Planner: Moving money to guarantee my dreams
Western Union's Brand Experience
The in-store experience is central to WU’s brand experience: Our largest asset is our global network – need to focus on the WU experience where majority of business occurs.
- Mobile is a unifier: Customer experience game changer as it is always with consumers and can work/support all channels
- Customer Service is key: Consumers don’t make distinctions between in-store brand reps and over-the-phone help – it’s all WU!
The design not only reinforced the image of a reliable company to work with when it comes to the customer’s money, but it also strengthened the resolve that Western Union is going to stay around, do more for its current customers and bring new users into the fold.
Post-install customer intercepts revealed a positive brand perception of Western Union:
"Trying to make the transaction easier/faster/smoother"
- "Enhancing its service portfolio"
"Trying to be more visible to non-WU business site customers"
- "Attempting to attract more customers"
"Providing more instruction to new users"

American energy giant Chevron on Tuesday announced plans to invest more capital to grow lower carbon energy businesses.
In this scope, the company agreed on a set of growth targets for 2030, which include growing renewable natural gas production to 40,000 million British Thermal Units (MMBtu) per day to supply a network of stations serving heavy-duty transport customers.
Chevron also aims to increase renewable fuels production capacity to 100,000 barrels per day to meet growing customer demand for renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel.
For hydrogen production, the company plans 150,000 tonnes per year to supply industrial, power and heavy-duty transport customers.
It also targets increasing carbon capture and is set to offset 25 million tonnes per year by developing regional hubs in partnership with others.
To achieve these scale of targets, the company expects to invest more than $10 billion until 2028, including $2 billion to lower the carbon intensity of Chevron’s operations. This is more than triple the company’s previous guidance of $3 billion.
'We believe climate change is real and that human activity, including the use of fossil fuels, contributes to it. We believe the future of energy will be lower carbon and intend to be a leader today and in that future,' Michael Wirth, Chevron’s chairman and CEO said during an Energy Transition Spotlight virtual event.
'We believe energy enables modern life. Affordable, reliable energy will continue to be essential to power a growing economy, and to lift billions out of poverty. This will include lowering the carbon intensity of oil and gas operations and new lower carbon energy solutions,' he added.

Submit your skincare questions to Dr. Agnes, CEO of Herborium and natural medicine expert
The association between
aloe vera and skincare is nothing new-people have been using it to treat
everything from sunburns to eczema for centuries now. However, is this plant
extract also a good addition for acne prone skin? The answer is a bit of a
First and foremost, it's
important to remember that aloe vera cannot really cure your acne on its own.
The only solution for permanently stopping breakouts is addressing the problem at its root. However,
that being said, aloe can work as a wonderful supplemental product for certain
acne-related issues. In its pure form, it's a non-comedogenic moisturizer
with anti- inflammatory properties.
Aloe vera has been
around for a very long time-the earliest records of it come from ancient Egypt
over 6000 years ago! They called it "the plant of immortality" and
used it both medicinally and as a gift for pharaohs. Needless to say, since
then, aloe has been a popular ingredient in all sorts of herbal remedies and
Aloe is classified as a
succulent plant and is primarily cultivated today for its leaves that contain a
gooey gel-which is used in a number of skincare and other health products. The
plant is grown worldwide, and its popularity only continues to rise.
When it comes to acne
sufferers, there are a couple different ways that aloe can help with breakouts.
First of all, you should be interested in aloe's healing properties. It's
commonly used as a remedy for sunburns or minor cuts and scrapes, but it's also
great for addressing the problem of acne scars. Aloe has a natural exfoliating effect that helps remove
dead skins cells from the scarring site and it also promotes the healing and
regeneration of damaged cells by increasing your body's collagen production.
Collagen is one of the essential building blocks of skin, and the more your
body creates the less noticeable scarring will be. Aloe also works as a
softening and moisturizing agent.
In addition to making
acne scars less visible, aloe is also beneficial for its anti-inflammatory and
redness reducing properties. While these properties won't cure your acne, they
will help minimize the visible symptoms and offer some protection against
Finally, aloe vera is
also quite high in vitamin A. This is an essential nutrient that
helps your body naturally remove its dead skin cells. Dead cells left on the
skin can cause clogged pores that create a breeding ground for acne-causing
bacteria, so anything that can help the exfoliation process will be a benefit
Aloe vera comes in
several different forms these days. The most natural choice would be to use the
gel straight from the plant's leaves. This gel can be applied directly to acne
scars once a day to help reduce their appearance. You may use the gel on
unaffected skin as well, but keep in mind this might not be effective. Aloe has
difficulty penetrating the upper layers of healthy skin, which means that any
potential health benefits it could have will be lessened. However, you may
still find that is has a temporary but pleasing moisturizing effect.
There are many skincare
products on the market these days that contain aloe vera gel or extracts. When
using things like this, it's important to be a smart consumer. Check the label
to see what other ingredients have been added to the product-unfortunately, you
may find that it's full of harsh, less-than-natural chemicals that can negate
any of the potential benefits the aloe would have on your skin.
Aloe vera juice is
another increasingly popular trend. Drinking the juice from this plant will
probably not be as effective as topical applications for reducing acne scars,
but it does have other applications. It's a great way to absorb aloe's vitamin
A and all the exfoliating benefits that come along with it. However, keep in
mind that, like other juices, producers of aloe juice may add unhealthy
ingredients into the mix-like extra refined sugar for sweetness. So make
sure you sure only use PURE aloe products to amplify your benefits.
With a Promise of Clear

By Bonnie Hagen, Founder of Bright Energy Wellness
Noticing more aches and pains as you age? You’re in good company. Aging doesn’t just mean we add more candles to our birthday cakes. As we age, our muscles get tighter, our tendons and ligaments become less flexible, and our bodies take longer to heal from injury. There are quite a few things people do to address these aches and pains, such as stretching, applying hot or cold compresses, getting a massage, or taking over-the-counter medication such as Tylenol or Motrin. More recently, people are finding success with using CBD oil to ease the aches and pains associated with aging.
By now almost everyone has heard of CBD oil but a much smaller percentage is familiar with the actual compound and its properties. CBD is an acronym for cannabidiol (pronounced cah-nab-eh-die-all), the second most prevalent active ingredient in cannabis. The cannabis species of plant includes the marijuana plant and the hemp plant. While CBD can be extracted from both plants, the hemp plant is specifically cultivated to have high amounts of CBD.
Full Spectrum hemp extract with CBD is more prized than CBD on its own. Hemp extract contains over one hundred compounds, in addition to CBD, that magnify the healing effects of CBD. This has been proven in scientific studies and is called the “Entourage Effect”. “Pure” CBD, or CBD that has been isolated from the other compounds, is not as effective as the full spectrum hemp extract. Legal full spectrum hemp extract also contains a small bit of THC, but not more than .3%, which will not get anyone high, but will contribute to the Entourage Effect. A common misunderstanding about CBD is that it will give users a “high” as happens when smoking or ingesting marijuana. It doesn’t. CBD is not an intoxicating compound, which is to say that no one will get high from it. In marijuana, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the compound that makes users high, but there is virtually no THC in the CBD in Hemp extract.
The demographic group most likely to adopt CBD is the generation who first used marijuana recreationally, that is, the baby boomers, people born between the years 1945-1964. Why is that? Because it’s the boomers who are now most experiencing the health problems that inevitably appear as people enter their sixties and seventies: the aches, pain, sleep loss, and anxiety that can often accompany aging. CBD is very helpful for treating those aches and pains, as you’ll see from the example I give below.
To illustrate how CBD is entering the mainstream, let me introduce my customers Libby and Steve (I’ve changed their names to protect their anonymity) who’ve been married for 25 years and live in Westchester County, north of New York City. Libby, who is in her early 60s, is a CPA. Her husband Steve is also in his early 60s and is an engineer. They have three kids, one of whom is a sophomore in college, and two that are still in high school. If you ask Libby and Steve the status of their health, they’ll say “fine,” but they’ll readily admit that neither of them sleeps well and both must deal with chronic pain. Libby’s pain comes from arthritis and Steve’s is lower back pain.
Managing pain is often the way people are introduced to CBD. For instance, in 2019 the Arthritis Foundation surveyed 2,600 respondents who have had rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis for 10 years or more. The study found that 79% of the respondents “are currently using CBD, have used it in the past or are considering it.” Nearly one-third of those respondents said they use CBD to manage their arthritis symptoms. Almost all the respondents (94%) said the primary reason is to relieve pain. One report from Harvard Health Publishing, entitled “CBD: What we know and what we don’t know,” cited studies that showed CBD is useful for a wide range of health problems. The study suggests that CBD may help with:
When I first met Steve and Libby, I listened to the descriptions of their symptoms. Both said they had trouble sleeping. Steve said he falls asleep quickly but often wakes up at 3:00 or 4:00 am and finds it hard to get back to sleep. Either lower back pain, nighttime anxieties, or both would keep him awake and keep him from getting back to sleep. Libby expressed a similar frustration. Unlike Steve, she had trouble getting to sleep and once she was asleep, she had trouble staying asleep. She, too, would wake up around 3:00 am. I asked each of them to try Bright Energy Hemp Extract with CBD oral tincture (aka CBD oil for short) every day by placing 0.50 mL (half a dropper) of the tincture under their tongue for thirty seconds before swallowing it each morning. I also asked that they apply the Bright Energy Hemp Extract with CBD topical salve directly to the spot on their bodies where the pain was most acute. After showing Steve and Libby how to apply the salve topically, they came back five weeks later and told me that they had had a lot of success using both products to stem their pain and improve their sleep. Steve said, “I didn’t feel anything in the beginning but after two weeks of taking it orally and applying it topically, I realized that my back pain was reduced, and I felt better overall. The general improvement in my back raised my spirits and I slept better at night because my back was bothering me less.”
Libby had a similar experience. “After a couple of weeks, I noticed that my overall pain was less, and I could play the piano without my hands aching. The salve is really convenient because you can target where you want the therapy.”
Both Steve and Libby admitted that, since starting this new daily regimen, their sleep was less interrupted by anxiety. “I would wake up at three o’clock in the morning worrying about paying my kids’ college tuition,” said Steve. “Now, I still occasionally wake up at three but I’m able to get back to sleep. I don’t know if it’s because the hemp extract with CBD relieves stress or eases my back pain. Probably both.” At night, Libby worries that her arthritis will worsen to the point where she can’t work. “If that happens, we’ll have a tough time financing our kids’ college tuition or going on family vacations, or just going out to dinner without worrying about the cost,” said Libby. Since using hemp extract with CBD, she feels a little more “balanced.” “I still worry but I feel less burdened by it. If all these negative thoughts show up in the middle of the night, I’m better able to calm my mind, and drift back to sleep.”
Another health fact about CBD is that it is non-addictive. This is borne out anecdotally and backed by research. In 2017, the World Health Organization published a study that determined that CBD, “… exhibits no effects indicative of any abuse or dependence potential…. To date, there is no evidence of public health related problems associated with the use of pure CBD.” My customers Steve and Libby have had the same experience as the researchers from the WHO. According to Libby, “I’ve been using hemp extract with CBD for three months and I’ve never craved the compound, nor have I gotten sick or headachy on those occasional days when I forgot to take it.” Steve’s experience was the same. He said, “Once in a while, I forget to take my hemp extract with CBD because I’m rushing out of the house in the morning. During those days, I never had a craving for it or gotten sick when I didn’t take it. It’s pretty gentle.”
Steve summed it up, “When I was a kid in college, I smoked marijuana because I liked the way it made me feel. Now I’m using cannabis for the same reason, because I like the way it makes me feel.”

Along with the freedom for attorneys to advertise (within limits) has come the legal clinic -- a new way for serving some legal needs. These storefront, accessible sources of legal advice and aid offer an inexpensive alternative to law as traditionally practiced.
Legal clinics dispense low-cost legal services with a minimum of fringe benefits. The principals in every legal clinic are licensed attorneys, but in many clinics you may see a paralegal or trained clerk for routine fact gathering. Points of law, recommended legal procedures, advice on your rights, and recommended actions remain in the hands of attorneys. The quality of that advice is likely to be as variable as the persons operating the legal clinics.
Generally, you can expect quick service for routine legal actions at flat rates which are clearly posted. An uncontested divorce may cost a flat $200. You may be charged $25 for drawing a relatively simple will. For some legal actions you may be given a handful of prepared forms with instructions for pursuing your own legal actions.
By handling routine legal actions quickly with a minimum of fuss and by using skilled paralegal aides, a legal clinic can process a large volume of business with minimum overhead and pass the savings on their clients. By operating at street level in simple offices readily available, they are approachable.
Legal clinics are clearly not the answer for criminal defense, corporate suits, most dealings with government agencies, and other unique problems where extensive research and court time are required.
Legal clinics provide limited legal services for people who would otherwise not see an attorney or who would be unable to pay law office charges. They are not an answer to all legal problems, but if a legal clinic can handle your problem, you can expect to pay less.

Constant advancements and changes in dentistry revolutionize dental treatments while facilitating patients’ life to a significant degree. All laser-assisted treatments performed with this aim are utilized in dental implantology as well.
Why Laser-Assisted Implant?
Laser dental implants prevent harming the tissues and scarring in the implant area. Experts have observed that inflammation and healing, along with postoperative issues, have been significantly reduced in laser-assisted treatments compared to traditional dental implants.
Laser-assisted implant utilized in oral implantology is often preferred since it;
- is used in peri-implant cases
- is used on the soft top portion of the implant
- and is preferred on the entire challenging portion of the implant as well.
Laser-Assisted Implant in Oral Implantology
Laser-assisted treatments are used under three different areas;
- Peri-implantitis diseases
- On soft top implant tissues
- On hard bottom implant tissues
- Laser-Assisted Treatment in Peri-implant Cases
Infections developing around the implant are classified into two groups as “peri-implant mucositis” and “peri-implantitis.”
Peri-implant mucositis is the infection forming on the soft tissues around the implant. And bleeding is the most common symptom of this problem. However, they can be easily cured with the proper treatment.
Peri-implantitis starts with an infection of soft implant tissue and causes bone loss. Bleeding also occurs in peri-implantitis.
Importance of Laser Treatment in Peri-implantitis
When they are not appropriately treated, they can further cause implant loss and severe bone decay. Early diagnosis and treatment, therefore, play a significant role.
Laser is widely used in replacing missing teeth in implantology due to its bacteria-killing properties. Once used correctly, it poses no threat to the tissues. However, the laser-assisted implant is regarded not as an alternative treatment but rather as a complementary treatment.
Laser-Assisted Implant Treatment on Soft Tissues
Laser rays’ absorbance by tissues changes according to the wavelength . The main components of the soft tissues absorb these rays, and this reduces penetration. Due to the high absorbance and low penetration features, laser-assisted dental treatment can be used on soft tissues without harming them. Lasers used in laser dental implants are observed less and penetrate into tissues even deeper.
Laser-assisted implant treatments come with numerous advantages compared to traditional implants, and these are listed as such;
- Since it doesn’t require any contact with the tissues, it minimizes tissue distortion
- It doesn’t need to be sterilized since laser incisions are already sterile
- Laser is sharper than traditional medical tools
- It minimizes post-treatment scarring.
Laser-Assisted Implant Treatment on Hard Tissues
Laser-assisted dental treatment should be applied in shorter periods with higher power tools to minimize the treatment’s undesirable consequences.
Advantages of using a laser rather than dental drills are listed as below:
- Since they don’t contact the hard tissues, they create less resonance compared to traditional drills. This creates less heat.
- This treatment type prevents discomfort and pressure patients can have when they hear high-powered supplies used in the treatment.
- It prevents any possible insensitivity that might be caused due to the closure of dentin channels.
Laser Biostimulation in Nerve Injuries
Patients might feel numbness on their lips when the nerve on their bottom jaw bone is harmed during wisdom teeth removal or implant treatment for their missing tooth. A Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is used to minimize or prevent the numbing and nerves heal with laser biostimulation.
Advantages of Laser Implant
Lasers tend to stimulate biological systems. This can be explained by mitochondrial absorbance, ATP pool, and increasing the cytoplasmic hydrogen density.
Since laser’s central effect is stimulating the tissues;
- Cell membrane permeability increases.
- It accelerates the healing process due to the laser’s stimulating properties.
- It minimizes pain or even stops it. It reduces the spasms between sensory nerves and muscle arteries. Dilation on veins helps to reduce the pain.
- It has an antibacterial effect since it stimulates blood cells in the bone marrow and immune system.
Laser-Assisted Implant Costs
Laser-assisted implant cost depends on the condition of the patient and is defined after a dental examination. Prices may vary depending on the duration of the treatment, clinic, doctor, and the patient’s treatment. Consulting professionals and getting accurate information from experts are essential to get a long-term and effective treatment.

Everything You Need to Know About Taking Care of Your New Tattoo
Some people would be surprised to know this, but I’m slightly addicted to getting tattoos. Seven currently scatter my body and I have plans to get another sometime this summer. With more than $1,000 and several hours of pain invested so far, I want to make sure my tattoos continue to look as fresh and vibrant as the day I got them (at least until I’m old and wrinkled and officially stop caring). For this to be possible, I had to become an expert in the healing process—aka the most crucial part of any tattoo.
If you get this right, your tattoo can look great for years to come—without requiring touch-ups along the way. To see what I mean, check out my Little Mermaid side piece (below). This was a huge commitment, but I’m still satisfied with the finished product more than a year later.
To achieve similar results, follow these basic tips:
Wait before you remove the bandage.
Once your body art is completed, your tattoo artist will protect the area with a bandage (after they let you take pictures, of course). Though it’s tempting to show off your new ink right away, it’s best to keep it covered for two to four hours. After that period, you can let your skin breathe (unless you’re instructed to do otherwise).
Prepare for some oozing.
When you do remove the bandage, it won’t be a pretty sight. The skin will be raw and your bandage will probably be soaked in a mixture of blood and bodily fluids. This wasn’t really a problem with my smaller tattoos, but the larger ones on my ribs and foot oozed quite a bit, which freaked me out at first. While it can get messy, it’s totally normal. If you experience this for more than a couple days, though, you should contact your tattoo parlor to make sure there isn’t an issue.
Keep it clean.
A tattoo typically takes at least two weeks to heal. To avoid excess scabbing or a chance of an infection, it’s important to keep it clean during this time. After the bandage is off, gently wash it with a fragrance-free cleanser. I love using Dove Beauty Bar for Sensitive Skin ($10 for 8 bars; drugstore.com), but you can also pick up a kit, such as Billy Jealousy’s Marked For Life Tattoo Care Kit ($40; ulta.com), which has a tattoo-specific wash included. Do this three to fives times a day and dab it dry with a cloth.
Moisture is key.
A moisturizing agent is necessary to speed up the healing process. Aquaphor Healing Ointment ($5; drugstore.com) is highly recommended by tattoo professionals. It keeps the skin smooth and supple while also providing a barrier against bacteria. Apply a thin layer over the tattoo and around its perimeter after every wash and before you go to bed for the first three to five days. After that, you can switch to a fragrance-free moisturizer like Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion ($7; target.com).
Wash, but don’t soak.
For the first two weeks, you’ll want to avoid swimming and bathing, as soaking a new tattoo can lead to a blotchy appearance. When you’re showering, do your best keep the area away from the water.
Mind what you wear.
Depending on the location of your tattoo, it’s a good idea to wear loose clothing that won’t rub against or suffocate the area. Pay attention to any advice the pro gives you for this. For my first tattoo, I was told not to wear jeans for a week. For the one on my foot, I had to wear flip flops (luckily, it was summer).
Whatever you do, don’t pick or scratch.
Like any wound that’s in the process of healing, things can get itchy. Resist any urges to scratch your tat and definitely don't pick at it, as this can leave imperfections you’ll have to get touched up later. After a few days, your tattoo will flake, peel, and might even look faded, but it’s nothing to be concerned about. Allow these pieces to fall off naturally during the cleansing process. The colors will return to their vibrant state once the tattoo is finished healing.
Stay out of the sun.
UV rays are your tattoo’s biggest enemy, especially during the first two weeks. Make sure it isn’t exposed when spending time outdoors. Once your tattoo is healed, SPF is an absolute must to prevent premature fading. For a product that’s easy to apply, try Coppertone Tattoo Guard Sunscreen Stick SPF 50 ($5; walmart.com).

Bangladesh has had a remarkable growth over the last decade. The country nestled geo-strategically between India on one side, and China on the other, has performed with a GDP delta of +VE: 5 to 8%. A lot of the growth can be attributed to our twin engines – RMG/Textile growth (which explains 80%+ of our export mostly to Europe and US) and remittances (from our human capital mainly positioned in the Middle East). Coupled with them, is the boom in ICT export (locally developed software and ITES export to more than 50 countries), a growing local consumer market (growing technology adaptable middle-income population) and large infrastructure projects (mostly in power, roads, bridges and mass transits, both public and private).
However, as we move into the next decade – Bangladesh also needs to focus on Startups and emerging companies, especially SMEs. A cursory glance at the advanced economies (like the US) or Bangladesh’s two powerful neighbors (India and China) confirms the hypothesis. Bangalore alone has lubricated India’s move to become an IT outsourcing giant (companies like TCS, Infosys, Wipro have gone global big time) and China (no need to elaborate) have only recently come down from its double-digit GDP growth. Alibaba, a pioneer in leading the technology revolution in China, has become the world’s most valuable B2B e-commerce company and has diversified their portfolios from retail, entertainment, cloud, and internet services to FinTech.
So, what’s holding Bangladesh back? – there is an acute problem with Startups and SMEs (arguably the most potent engine for growth) in three levels.
The first problem identified is the faltering infrastructure and investment initiatives for Startups/SMEs. Almost all of the accelerators, incubation, and mentorship programs are located in the capital – leaving no support for startups from other cities. Adding on it, the dearth of access to finance (60+ banks and 34 NBFIs – mostly debt-based financial instruments with high-interest rates against collaterals) is a no-winner for the entrepreneurs.
For tackling these challenges, initiatives need to be taken to circumvent Startups/emerging companies’ capital needs via Angel Investment Networks, Venture Capitals, and Private Equity Hedge Funds. The establishment of a vibrant equity capital market will attract the fund providers for profitable exits.
The good news is that a growing number of local and global entities have shown interest in the Bangladesh ecosystem lately. These ranges from international investment companies/global companies like, Gojek, an Indonesian decacorn, who invested in the local ride-sharing company, Pathao; Ant Financials, a fintech affiliate of Alibaba Group, who invested in bKash or IFC who invested in Chaldal; and local players – both alternative investment companies under B-SEC guidelines like, BD Venture and corporates like, Epilliyon and Urmi.
Angel syndicates like the Bangladesh Angels and the angel network have 50+ angel members. These types of networks are new, growing, and need to be more inclusive and be present throughout the entire country. In 2018, Bangladesh based Startups raised U$ 27 Mn compared to U$ 4.2 Bn in India. Even considering the difference in economies (India’s GDP is ten times as of Bangladesh’s), the disproportionate gap of 155X in investment raises questions. Given the amount of risk capital the country needs to take the sector forward, the startups and SMEs also need to grow significantly to garner early investor’s interest.
Secondly, the business environment is far from being competitive with comparable economies. The inefficiencies in the market are at a monumental amount. “Speed money” is required everywhere, and the existing players create entry barriers by virtue of “lobbying” and “muscle power”. Moreover, payment terms are equally bad, and often growing businesses already burdened by high financial costs die down because of the cash flow crunch. According to the World Bank’s Ease of Doing Business Index – Bangladesh ranks at 168 out of 190 countries with a score of just 45 out of 100. The country is reported uncompetitive on all vital components, such as Starting a Business (ranked 131), Getting Credit (ranked 119), Taxes (ranked 151), International Trade (ranked 176), Enforcing contracts (ranked 189).
For the country to progress in the next decade, business processes, policies, and regulations have to be more streamlined and more comfortable to start and operate startups/SMEs. One way forward could be to use technology and fintech platforms to register and collect taxes from companies to make it more transparent and secure.
Third and finally, access to quality talent in the local market is a massive challenge for the business ecosystem as a whole, especially more so for the Startups and SMEs. While there are many (53) public, (90) private, and (2) international registered universities in the country, the industry-academia disconnect means there is an absence of the right kind of resources for the market. Moreover, fundamentally universities in Bangladesh do not yet focus on developing entrepreneurial talent – nor do they have the right sort of incubation programs, access to funding, or R&D labs to facilitate Startup/SME growth.
Without the right kind of talent – Startups and SMEs will always be a small segment and won’t be able to scale into large enterprises. Countries like South Korea have grown into major technology hubs with government incentives that tackled brain-drain and also brought back their intellectuals from innovation economies like the US – most of whom formed companies in the country or joined universities like KAIST (Korean Advanced Institute of Science and Technology). Even India receives huge knowledge remittances from NRIs (Non-resident Indians).
For Bangladesh to move forward, industry-academia is mandatory to set up the right kind of infrastructure to nurture innovation and talents at school/university level as well as leverage knowledge remittances from all over the world through incentivized initiatives.
Recently, an internal survey on 100+ Startup company founders was carried out to understand what are the severe bottlenecks they are facing in operating a business in Bangladesh. The findings show the top three problems for the startup founders were related to either finding the right talent (co-founder and team- top 2 challenge each with a score of 4/5) and access to funding (3.6/5) followed by cash flow management (3.6/5), government support (3.3/5), and legal/regulatory affairs (3.2/5):
Since the end of 2019, the world is experiencing a “Black Swan” event – the COVID 19 pandemic. As an export-driven country, this will create a lasting impact on the country’s export sectors, especially- RMG sector, which is facing U$ 1.7 Bn worth of canceled orders amid backward linkage disruption resulting in a million job loss; and foreign earning remittance, as other countries are shutting down, our human capital of half a million people has come back into the country from Middle-East and Europe where they were employed mostly in semi-skilled/unskilled category. Domestic demand not only in tourism but also for both services and products have scaled-down, leading to shutting down businesses creating unemployment, especially in the informal sectors.
Given this scenario, the businesses need to become increasingly inclusive and start creating social and environmental returns on top of positive economics, and the role of Startups/SMEs would become even more critical for equitable growth. A quick survey of founders during this testing time also shows that there has been a significant fall in their business activities – 29% reported a decline in business activities by more than half while another 29% reported a complete business closure. ADB estimates Bangladesh may lose up to U$ 3 Bn – 1% of its GDP for the Fiscal Year 2020-21, that may result in a job loss for 9 million people due to this pandemic.
Most of the countries have come up with economic stimulus packages, and the Government of Bangladesh has declared the same. However, Bangladesh’s package covers only the export-oriented industries such as ICT/RMG/Textile sector (mandated that the 2019 export portfolio has to be more than 80%) in the form of refinancing from the Central Bank (to the amount of ~U$ 600 Mn) to pay wages and salaries. However, the SMEs/Startups have not been included in the stimulus package, and it is imperative to include and support this sector that contributes 20% of the country’s GDP and employs 35% of the total employment in Bangladesh.
As we move forward, we need to support the Startup/SME and impact enterprise engine by a collective ecosystem play. Startups need the right drive, motivation, mentorship, business environment, and access to funding networks.
The sector can reach optimum growth by building an ecosystem via cross-collaboration with the government, angel investment networks, institutional investors, ecosystem builders, development partners, trade chambers, and of course, the budding Startups, whether traditional or impact-focused, is of utmost priority.

When in Gatwick Airport, I usually head straight to the No 1 Lounge in the North Terminal, but since writing my article about the new Aspire Airport lounge opening in Heathrow Terminal 5 I have been wanting to test the other Aspire lounges to see what else is on offer from Gatwick’s Airport Lounges.
The last time I traveled through London Gatwick’s North Terminal (to Monaco) I used the No1 lounge and found the tables to be grubby and untended, it was rather hectic and I always find that the drinks seem to be lacking in this lounge (sparkling water from a tap, diet coke also from a tap- both virtually flat). I may simply have been unlucky and have hit on peak-time traffic, but it convinced me to give the Aspire lounge in Gatwick North Terminal a try.
So how was this Aspire lounge?
It is reached down the same corridor as all the lounges, including the BA lounge. You just need to hop in the lift, which takes you straight to the Aspire entrance. At £16 GBP the Aspire lounge comes in cheaper than the No1 Traveller lounge (which costs £25 GBP when booked online) and the same price as MyLounge which offers the least facilities.
Size-wise, the Aspire lounge is smaller than the No1 Traveller lounge but as such felt less hectic even though it was quite busy. There were plenty of tables and chairs and comfy sofas in the “quiet zone”. There is only soup as a hot food choice. Otherwise, there are plenty of biscuits, olives, nuts, and pasties to choose from. What I like about this lounge over the No 1 Traveller is the drinks, coke, and sparkling water are available in bottles that you can pour out. There is a huge selection of drinks, all self-service, wines, spirits, beers, Britvic, soda water, etc., plus plenty of newspapers and magazines.
What it doesn’t have is the complimentary hot food menu of the No 1 Lounge, quite the selection of magazines, or a kids cinema room. The only other notable difference is the view, which is over a road in the Aspire lounge as opposed to the planes in the No 1 Traveller – oh and the slow internet connection, which I haven’t noticed on previous trips at the No 1 Traveller Lounge.
So we come to the question of which lounge is best in Gatwick North Terminal? It would have to be the No 1 Traveller lounge for the view, the selection of food (salads set out, hot meal choices, more extensive selection of magazines). If you have a Priority Pass, the No 1 Lounge is the better offering even without the choice of drinks, but the competitive price of the Aspire, if you are booking unrelated to a lounge pass, makes it an excellent choice.
For me, the best seat in the Aspire lounge is the window seat at the far end, which has more privacy whilst still being able to see the departures screen. If you miss fizzy coke and sparkling water, which are sorely lacking in the No1 Lounge, the Aspire Lounge is certainly worth a try. I will be mixing it up with a slight preference to the No 1 Traveller lounge for future flights – at least until I become a BA Silver Tier member and I have access to the British Airways lounges and in particular the British Airways lounge in Gatwick North Terminal.

Seeing as it’s only seven short days since the worst set of election results since, well, last year, it’s been a pretty good week for the Lib Dems, thanks to a Queen’s speech that’s not so much yellow-tinged as basking in an all-encompassing golden hue.
And while Conservative commentators may not like it much, there is an apparent acceptance that for the next year at least, we will see a programme in government very much driven by a Lib Dem agenda.
Which is why so many Lib Dems are feeling quite chipper, already embracing the prospect of the 2015 general election campaign, now that the Daily Mail has written our campaign poster for us. And as a Lib Dem activist who has called for a distinction to be drawn between the separate policies of the two parties in government from day one – I never wanted us to be seen as “Tory Lite” – I can be nothing but delighted about this.
But can I wave a warning flag?
Over all others, there is one very obviously Tory bill in The Queen’s speech. It’s the Communications Capability Development Programme (CCPD) – or the snoopers’ charter to you and me.
It’s only a draft bill rather than a full bill because of the almighty fuss Lib Dem activists made when this first came up. And I can’t say that I hate the proposals as they stand – because I’m told they haven’t even been re-written yet. But I’m also told that when we see them in draft form, we’ll most likely detest them.
Which is why, led by the inestimable Julian Huppert, we’ll fight them, amend them, twist them, change them and turn what’s likely to be RIPA Double Plus on first publication into RIPA lite by the time we’ve finished.
At which point we’ll need to make a decision.
This is exactly the process we went through with tuition fees and the NHS reforms. And we made bad proposals better. By which time we were to seen to own them, and thus got the blame for some pretty unpopular policies – that truth be told, we still didn’t like, but for some reason felt we had to support. If it wasn’t for the omnishambles Budget hitting Conservative support, the local election results this year would not have been noticeably different to last year, with NHS reforms playing the role of tuition fees and the Tories sailing blithely on.
So I’m not going through that again. This time we’ll fight, amend and twist the CCPD proposals. And when we’re done we must take a step back. And if the legislation rolls back interference in our everyday lives, then we’ll pass it with a glad heart. And if it doesn’t, regardless of how many hoops we’ve jumped through, we must walk away.
I don’t need a snoopers’ charter hung round my neck.
Richard Morris blogs at A View From Ham Common, which was named Best New Blog at the 2011 Lib Dem Conference.

Kevin Fiala signed a two-year, $6 million contract with the Minnesota Wild on Wednesday. It has an average annual value of $3 million.
The 23-year-old forward was a restricted free agent. He had 39 points (13 goals, 26 assists) in 83 games with the Wild and Nashville Predators last season, including seven points (three goals, four assists) in 19 games after he was traded to Minnesota for forward Mikael Granlund on Feb. 25.
Selected by Nashville in the first round (No. 11) of the 2014 NHL Draft, Fiala has 104 points (48 goals, 56 assists) in 223 regular-season games with the Wild and Predators, and six points (five goals, one assist) in 18 Stanley Cup Playoff games.
Wild coach Bruce Boudreau said he expects Fiala in camp once his visa issues are cleared up, and said he hopes he's up to speed with the rest of his teammates.
"The only thing I'm concerned about in that respect is what he's been doing while he's been at home, because you knew what the guys were doing here every day, and hopefully he was skating with a team back home and working hard like I think he would be," Boudreau said Thursday. "So if he does that then he won't be too far behind. So we'll find out as soon as he gets here."

San Diego, CA – Expanding its California presence, Pathfinder Partners, LLC, a San Diego-based company specializing in making opportunistic investments in real estate properties and defaulted loans, has acquired Tuscan Townhomes, a luxury, 63-unit, townhome project located at 11511 Magnolia Avenue in Riverside, California.
Pathfinder and its operating partner, Stratford Partners, acquired the property for $10.55 million and plan to implement a $240,000 program to upgrade townhome interiors, as well as improve common area amenities.
Tuscan Townhomes, a gated community, was completed in 2009 and is currently fully leased. All units are two-story, two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath luxury townhomes averaging 1,200 square feet. Each features a direct access garage, washer/dryer, granite countertops, central heat and air conditioning and top-of-the-line appliances.
According to Lorne Polger, senior managing director of Pathfinder Partners, the community represents an attractive investment in an appealing location. “Riverside is one of the fastest growing metropolitan areas in California – with easy access to Orange, Los Angeles and San Bernardino counties – and housing prices here are finally on the upswing,” Polger said. “We believe this is the strongest submarket within the area, and we were able to purchase the project at significantly below replacement cost,” he continued.
The Tuscan acquisition marks another key milestone in Pathfinder’s steady expansion. Since its inception in 2006, Pathfinder has acquired more than $500 million in defaulted commercial real estate loans and REO properties and currently owns and operates several thousand residential units and several hundred thousand square feet of office and retail space in California, Colorado, Arizona, Washington, Florida, Texas, and Oklahoma. The firm is actively seeking investment opportunities in major markets in the western United States.
About Pathfinder Partners, LLC
Headquartered in San Diego, Pathfinder Partners was founded by Lorne Polger and Mitch Siegler in 2006 to make opportunistic investments in distressed real estate assets and defaulted loans, with a focus on multifamily real estate projects. In addition to seeking opportunities to add value by providing liquidity to selling financial institutions, Pathfinder also seeks to maximize value through property enhancements, improvements in operations, marketing and property positioning and other strategies. For more information, visit www.pathfinderfunds.com or contact Mitch Siegler at 858-625-5286.

A. Inspect the breasts
Inspect the breasts with the patient both in the upright and supine positions. With the patient in the upright position, examine with the patient’s arms relaxed and then raised, looking for shape asymmetry, deformity, and skin changes (erythema, edema, dimpling). With the patient in the supine position, examine the entire breast systematically with the patient’s ipsilateral arm raised above and behind the head.
- If a mass is found, determine its size, shape, texture, tenderness, location, fixation to skin or deep tissues, and relationship to the areola. Evaluate the nipples for retraction, discoloration, inversion, ulceration, and eczematous changes.
- For nipple discharge, note its color and quality, where pressure elicits discharge, and whether it is from a single duct or associated with a mass.
B. The axillary, supraclavicular, and infraclavicular lymph nodes
The axillary, supraclavicular, and infraclavicular lymph nodes should be palpated with the patient in the upright position, with arms relaxed. The size, number, and fixation of nodes should be noted.

Last night (Thursday 10th March) the PC and tech industry came together to network and celebrate its achievements over the past 12 months at the 2016 PCR Awards.
24 awards were handed out on the night across four categories – Frontline, Channel Services, Distribution, Vendor – as well as the big Grand Prix award.
Frontline winners were:
System Builder – PC Specialist (pictured)
Independent Retailer – Sweethaven Computers
National Retailer – John Lewis
Reseller – AAG Systems
Online Retailer – Amazon
Channel Services winners were:
Dealer Services Provider – Network Group
Analyst – GfK (pictured)
Marketing/PR Agency – Zaboura Communications
Distribution winners were:
Software Distributor – Entatech
PC Gaming & Hardware Distributor – VIP Computers
Components Distributor – Exertis (pictured)
Peripherals Distributor – Exertis
Consumer Electronics Distributor – Widget
Marketing & PR – Ingram Micro
Service & Support – Entatech
Distributor of the Year – Exertis
Vendor winners were:
Software Publisher – Microsoft
Peripherals Vendor – Razer
Components Vendor – NVIDIA
Desktop PC Vendor – Terra (pictured)
Mobile Device Vendor – Samsung
Networking Vendor – Synology
Service & Support – LogicNow
GRAND PRIX – Dell
Dell took home this year’s Grand Prix award. For many years Dell sold computers direct to customers, but over the past few years it struck distribution deals with the likes of Ingram Micro to offer a larger range of products – software, hardware and services – to commercial customers in the channel.
Today, Dell’s channel business generates more than half of its EMEA business revenue, with over 70 per cent of its enterprise business going through the channel. From gaming (its Alienware brand) to the enterprise, the company recorded double-digit revenue growth through distribution in 2015, and made a £44 billion swoop for VMware owner EMC last year in the tech industry’s largest deal.
We hope you all had a great night and we look forward to seeing you at next year’s show. Be sure to check out the next issue of PCR for more information on the winners!
Feel free to tweet us your comments and photos using the #PCRAwards2016 hashtag on Twitter. And look out for our 2016 PCR Awards photo gallery on Facebook.
2016 PCR Awards partners include: Entatech as Headline Partner, Exertis as After-Show Party Host, Frontline Category Partner BullGuard, Vendor Category Partner CompTIA, Photobooth Partner Hannspree, Gold Partners AOC, Centerprise, Intel and Symantec, Event Partners Qsan, Nvidia and TrustATec, M2M as Entertainment Partner, Acer as Drinks Reception Partner, Smithie UK as Red Carpet Partner, and SK Hynix as Gift Partner.

14. Waterfront Park, Charleston
Charleston's popular Waterfront Park is easy on the eyes.

The tree tunnel is especially picturesque, as is the unique (and impressive) palmetto-tree-topped fountain.
15. Boone Hall Plantation & Gardens, Mount Pleasant
This traditional plantation home dates to the late 17th century. Today, this working farm (including the home and its vast, magnificent grounds) are open to visitors. The cotton it was once known for producing has been replaced by strawberries, peaches, and tomatoes.
16. The Battery, Charleston
Enjoy a scenic walk on one of Charleston's most prized attractions, The Battery. A fortified seawall located downtown, this long promenade features lovely views of the waterfront, which is lined by impeccable mansions. Nestled on the tip of the Charleston peninsula, the area features a ton of photo-worthy items, including giant oak trees, palmettos, cannons, and unbeatable views of the Sullivan Island Lighthouse and Castle Pinckney.
17. Huntington Beach State Park, Murrells Inlet
This natural wonderland is a haven for bird-watchers. Pack your telephoto lens and get ready to capture waterfowl in flight above a lush background peppered with brightly colored wildflowers. The beach itself is clean and lovely, featuring wide-open spaces and soft, golden sand. Keep your eyes peeled for gators; you're sure to see one (or more) wandering the shore.
Georgetown is adorably quaint. Small in size, its charming historic homes, sweet main street, and perfect seaside setting are the stuff of dreams. Nestled between the much larger (and louder) Charleston and Myrtle Beach, this quiet and compact town is a wonderful spot to recharge.
19. Blue Ridge Mountains
It's impossible to find fault with the Blue Ridge Mountains. Rising majestically from the "Upcountry" region of the state, these phenomenal peaks are breathtaking (literally). Climb to the top for a stunning vista worthy of a thousand pictures (including a few selfies, of course).
20. Folly Beach, Charleston County
There's no doubt about it, your camera will fall in love with Folly Beach. Whether you're an angler, photographer, sun worshiper, or surfer, this delightful spot will make you forget your worries. The closest beach to Charleston, this is a popular place, especially during warm weekends. One of its main attractions is the picture-perfect fishing pier.

Longlands Estate, [Woolloongabba], 1881 (Map of the Week)
This real estate map from 1881 advertises 232 allotments of land for sale at the Longlands Estate, now part of the Brisbane inner-city suburb of Woolloongabba. The allotments were situated along Longlands Street, Norman Street and Vulture Street (now Vulture Street East).
Prior to the sale extensive publicity was published in Brisbane newspapers.
"The Longlands Estate is only five minutes' walk from Chalk's Stable, Kangaroo Point, where omnibuses pass every twenty minutes, commanding a magnificent view of the suburban residences on the Cleveland Road and Woolloongabba." (Brisbane Courier, 14 November 1881, p.4)
A public auction was held at the site on the afternoon of 26 November 1881. The results of the sale were published in the Brisbane Courier newspaper.
"The success attending this sale far exceeded the expectations of the auctioneer; the sale commenced at 3 p.m. and was carried on until darkness put a stop to it, by which time 120 allotments had been disposed of, at prices satisfactory to vendor and purchaser, several changing hands during the afternoon at a good advance. The sale was most numerously attended, there being nearly 200 people present. We note the sale with be resumed at 3 p.m. next Saturday." (Brisbane Courier, 29 November 1881, p.2)

Best Micro SD Cards
Do you have a need for speed? For a fast writing SD card, look no further than the SanDisk 64GB Extreme Pro MicroSDXC. This card easily handled every task we threw at it in our testing, from 4K video shoots to rapid-fire RAW images, and achieved an impressive maximum write speed of 86 mb/s. For those that like gadgets, this card notably meets the often strict minimum speed requirements of the vast majority of drones. With the SanDisk Extreme Pro, you're likely never going to have to worry about the speed of your card.
All of this performance doesn't come for free, as the SanDisk Extreme Pro is noticeably more expensive than the average card on the market. However, that price difference is relatively small in comparison to the performance benefits. We think the small extra cost will be well worth it for most people considering the reliability and versatility afforded by the extra speed.
Unless you're using a fancy camera drone or dabbling in advanced photography techniques, chances are you can get away with a less than agile card. If that's the case, we think the Samsung 32GB EVO Select MicroSDHC offers a great value. Though its maximum measured write speed of 35 mb/s is only mediocre, it is more than fast enough for most tasks. In fact, in our tests, it was easily able to record 4K video and even shoot bursts of RAW images for a short period, so you shouldn't have any issues using it in a phone or security camera. All of this comes at a relatively good value, particularly if you're shopping for some of the higher-capacity options.
Across the board, the EVO Select posted below-average speeds in our tests. In a functional sense, this mostly showed up in our RAW image burst tests, where the EVO Select could only shoot for a few seconds before getting bogged down. Its specs are also such that the software of speed-sensitive things like drones may not be compatible. Despite these drawbacks, the EVO Select still provides a good bang for the buck.
If you want a fast card but don't want to pay top dollar, the SanDisk 64GB Extreme MicroSD is a good option. Its measured write speed of 67 mb/s allowed it to easily record 4K video in our tests, and it withstood a full 5 seconds in our tortuous RAW image burst shooting test. It is also likely to be fast enough for use in most consumer camera drones, though we recommend checking the specs first.
The SanDisk Extreme is cheaper than the faster cards on the market, but not by much. If you're concerned about speed, you'll likely want to spend a few extra dollars to get the best. However, if you want to save a few bucks and get the cheapest card that meets the minimum speed specs of the device you're using, the SanDisk Extreme might be a perfect compromise.
MicroSD cards are a cheap and effective way to instantly upgrade the internal storage of your phone or tablet (unfortunately, most Apple devices don't offer such an option). If that's your main goal, the SanDisk 128GB MicroSDXC for Nintendo Switch is a near-perfect solution. Not only does it provide a lot of storage at a relatively reasonable price, but it is also fast enough that you probably won't notice you're accessing your files from an 'external' storage device. In our tests, the maximum write speed of 70 mb/s allowed us to quickly offload photos and videos from our phones to free up space, and the solid read speeds let us view those same photos and videos without any lag or delays.
The lack of a standard SD card converter is the main drawback of this card. We think the need to purchase a converter separately in order to use a full-sized SD card reader is a bit of a pain. However, if you're sure you'll only be using the card in your phone or tablet, the lack of an extra piece of plastic could be a pleasant surprise. For phone or tablet storage expansion, you can't do much better than the SanDisk 128GB MicroSDXC for Nintendo Switch.
The Samsung 128GB PRO Endurance MicroSDHC offers a lot of storage space for a relatively low price. It's designed for continuous recording devices, such as security or dashboard cameras, and that extra storage is ideal for those applications. The 41 mb/s speed is likely to be plenty fast enough for its intended use, and we even found it suitable for 4K recording in our tests. Samsung advertises the card as water, magnet, temperature, and X-ray proof.
While this card is fast enough for most applications, it may lag a bit if used for advanced RAW photography, and may be too slow for some of the advanced consumer drones that require faster memory cards. If you're looking for a lot of storage on the cheap, the Samsung PRO Endurance will likely meet your needs.
The Samsung 128GB EVO Plus MicroSDXC is a high-capacity card that displayed an elite write speed of 86 mb/s in our tests. This impressive speed means it will likely be fast enough for almost any use. Its higher capacity configurations are also a bit less expensive than those of other similarly fast models on the market. Like many cards, it sports a manufacturer claim that it's impervious to water, temperature, magnetic fields, and X-rays.
Though this card offers more gigabytes per dollar than many of the faster cards available, it is still significantly more expensive than average. Still, the Samsung EVO Plus can provide a combination of fast speeds and lots of storage for less than many of the competitors.
Basic tasks, like recording HD video from a security camera or taking standard photos, generally don't require much speed, which can often allow you to get away with a less expensive card. The SanDisk 16GB Ultra MicroSDHC can work well in such situations. Despite its measured write speed of 12 mb/s being rather glacial compared to many other cards, it still managed to record 4K video in our tests without a glitch. Thus, it will likely work well for most basic, non-speed-intensive tasks.
The SanDisk Ultra doesn't leave much room for growth, and will likely bog down if you use it in more demanding situations/devices. If your SD card needs are fairly basic, the SanDisk Ultra is still a relatively inexpensive option.
Why You Should Trust Us
We designed our microSD card testing processes with the help of our in-house photographers, Laura Casner and Jason Peters. These two professionals have multiple decades of photography and videography experience between them and have used just about every form of solid-state memory cards currently available. Senior Editor Max Mutter has been testing and writing about consumer technology products for nearly five years. In that time, he's used more than 100 devices that require the use of microSD cards, making him intimately familiar with their function, speed classes, and idiosyncrasies.
Our microSD card testing relies on a mix of objective measurements and performance in real-world situations. We measured each card's speed while writing and reading the same large video files and the same folders full of photos, providing us with directly comparable speed measurements. We then corroborated these results with functional tests, using each card to record 4K video, to shoot bursts of memory-intensive RAW images, and to expand the storage of our phones and other devices.
Analysis and Test Results
Write speed, or the speed at which a card can record data, is the most differentiating factor of microSD cards. These speeds can also differ quite a bit depending on what types of files are being written. We focused our testing and ratings on two performance areas: large file write speed, or how quickly a card can write video files, and small file write speed, or how quickly a card can write groups of smaller files like photos. We also tested and considered read speeds, or how quickly cards can transfer existing data. Read speeds, however, are less differentiating and thus only important for more niche situations.
Large File Write Speed
The ability to quickly write large files can allow a card to record high-quality video without dropping any frames or resulting in any pixelation. To measure large file write speed, we transferred the same 5GB 1080p video file onto each card and timed the process. This allowed us to calculate a speed in megabytes per second (mb/s). Large files are the easiest for solid-state storage devices like microSD cards to write; therefore, we dubbed this measurement the maximum measured write speed. We then used each card to record 5 minutes of 4K video, all with the same camera, to see how well each card worked in real-world scenarios. This latter test was conducted in a pass/fail manner (any dropped frames or pixelation resulted in a fail). All of the cards that made our final cut passed this test.
The SanDisk 64GB Extreme Pro MicroSDXC and Samsung 128GB EVO Plus MicroSDXC were the fastest of the UHS-I cards that we tested, reaching a maximum speed of 86 mb/s. The SanDisk 128GB MicroSDXC for Nintendo Switch and the SanDisk 64GB Extreme microSD came close to these speeds, hitting respective clips of 70 and 67 mb/s in our tests.
Beyond this point, we saw a significant drop-off in terms of large file write speed. Even the slowest cards, however, were able to function well for basic uses like recording 1080p HD video. If you're conducting more advanced tasks or using devices like top-tier camera drones that require faster cards, you'll want to go with one of the top-performing cards mentioned above.
Small File Write Speed
Small file write speed largely corresponds to a card's ability to quickly process and save many images in rapid succession. To test this, we transferred the same 5GB folder filled with almost 2000 photos onto each card and timed each transfer. We then put each card into the same camera and shot a burst of RAW images at full speed until the card started to lag and bog down. While performing this test, we held a microphone near the camera and recorded the sound of the shutter onto a basic music production program. The resulting waveform provided a visual representation of how many images each card could write in rapid succession before reaching its limit and slowing down.
Three cards shared the top speed in this metric, with the SanDisk 64GB Extreme Pro MicroSDXC, the Samsung 128GB EVO Plus MicroSDXC, and the SanDisk 128GB MicroSDXC for Nintendo Switch all logging a top speed of 36 mb/s (small file speeds are generally slower than large file speeds). All these cards also lasted more than 5 seconds in our RAW image burst test.
Beyond these top performers, most cards fell into the 20 mb/s range. Even the slowest card, however, was able to last 3 seconds in our RAW image burst test, indicating that any card should be more than capable of handling basic imaging tasks.
Read speeds come into play when you are extracting data from a card, such as when uploading all the videos and photos you took on your vacation to a computer. We tested read speeds by transferring the same video and photo files we used in our write speed tests from each card onto the same computer, using the same card reader.
The read speed results were quite consistent across the board, with pretty much every card hitting speeds of about 94 mb/s when reading large files, and about 78 mb/s when reading groups of small files.
MicroSD cards may seem a dime a dozen, but if you look under their fragile plastic frames, there are actually noticeable differences. We hope our test results help you wade through the sea of arcane stats and marketing claims that often accompany these cards, and lead you to the perfect model for your intended use.

Suspended sentence sought for Wallaceburg woman who fatally stabbed client
A Wallaceburg woman who fatally stabbed a Dover Township man should receive a suspended sentence, her lawyer argued Nov. 5.
Laura Joy made her sentencing submission in Superior Court in Chatham in the trial of Kourtny Audette.
Audette, 28, pleaded guilty Aug. 6 to manslaughter in the death of Nick Laprise on April 18, 2018.
In an agreed statement of facts read in court Aug. 6, Crown attorney Rob MacDonald said Audette worked as an escort and that Laprise had been a client.
Laprise arranged to visit Audette on April 18, 2018, and showed up at her Wallaceburg home, MacDonald said.
An hour later, police received a 911 call about a stabbing at the home.
Before the 911 call, Audette phoned her father and stepmother, who came to the home, court heard. Audette’s stepmother said Audette told her that she told Laprise that she didn’t want to have sex but he wouldn’t stop and she stabbed him.
Joy told Justice Paul Kowalyshyn the situation was tragic and these cases are sometimes the most difficult to determine a sentence.
She noted a young man, who was a father and son, was taken in the prime of his life.
Joy shared details about Audette’s life, including that she grew up in a broken home where some physical abuse took place and that she was later sexually assaulted by an older man.
These incidents and others have contributed to the post-traumatic stress disorder Audette suffers from, Joy said.
She said the facts of the case show her client said no to a sex act that she did not want to do and “reacted with one fatal stab wound.”
Joy argued the sentence should take that into account.
“Provocation has to be considered as there is a triggering requirement for provocation.”
Joy pointed out Audette has spent three years, six months and 20 days in custody.
If given 1.5 days credit for her time in custody, that would equal five years and four months as of Nov. 5, Joy said.
She noted Audette’s guilty plea does assist in terms of court resources, particularly during COVID when courts are “extremely stressed.”
Joy told the court Audette has worked hard to improve herself while in custody, including completing high school and earning a few university credits.
Joy suggested a suspended sentence would be appropriate penalty, noting it allows for the longest period of probation – three years – which is useful to help someone be reintegrated into society.
“This is a young woman who acknowledges and is remorseful for her conduct,” Joy said, “and unfortunately, she cannot change the tragedy, but she’s certainly doing everything in power to ensure that she gives back to society, and that something like this never happens again.”
But Natalie Laprise outlined the repercussions of her son’s death in a victim impact statement read by MacDonald.
“I’m having a hard time to find the words to tell you how Nicholas’ murder has impacted my life, because there are no such words to describe the pain, anger and despair that I felt from his murder,” Natalie Laprise said
She said her son’s murder took everything from her, including his laughter, his face, his caring hugs, helpfulness and thoughtfulness.
“It took my sense of life, shattered my whole existence and took my joy and happiness.”
Laprise described her son as a “kind, gentle soul,” who loved making people laugh and helping others.
“He was a big part of my world,” she said, recalling how her son stopped by often “just to give me a hug or say, ‘Hi.’”
Laprise said her family will never be the same without Nick in their lives.
“I am confident these words will never be strong enough to explain to you the loss we have suffered, because of his untimely, unfair death.”
Joy noted it was a powerful statement, but raised a concern with the reference to the term murder.
“I appreciate that there is a legal significance,” Kowalyshyn said, adding it is the perspective of a family member.
Joy said the pain the Laprise family is going through is recognized, adding Audette and her stepmother instructed her to express that they are “deeply, deeply sorry for the tragedy that has occurred that finds us in this position.”
A delay in court starting prevented the Crown from making its sentencing submissions. The matter returns to court on Nov. 19, when it was originally expected Kowalyshyn would render a decision on Audette’s sentence.
The judge said the proceedings will begin with the Crown making its submission and “we’ll see where that takes us.”
Court heard Audette would also like to address the court, before she returned to custody at the South West Detention Centre in Windsor.

Fresh food in a stylish atmosphere - Good place to eat and meet!
Restaurant Vapiano in Budapest has its origin in Germany. The young startup franchise company started in 2005 in Hamburg and is currently expanding to whole Europe and US.
The main difference to other restaurants is that all food is made in front of your eyes. Vapiano uses only fresh made pasta and creats exotic dishes while you are watching. In three minutes you hold a delicious menu in your hand. In 2007 Vapiano opened up in Budapest and you can taste a bit of Italy right here. The restaurant is located in a parallel to Váci utca, the large touristic shopping street in Budapest.
Around the corner are several hotels such as the Kempinski hotel Budapest and it is also closed to the new opened fashion street and to Déak tér, Basilica, chain bridge and many more interesting places.
Restaurant Vapiano is a very good Italian restaurant which is a little bit above average in price but the food is absolutly recommendable.

went into the bathroom and flipped on the light but there was nothing there! He told me he then came to my room and opened the door.
I remembered he had opened my door but he had closed it again right away quietly so I figured he was just checking whether he had woken me up. We were both kind of freaked out by his experience so we slept with the bathroom light on and our doors open from that night on while we lived there.
There were other occurrences
too. Once my little grandson (he was not quite 2 at the time) was playing with his toys right next to the stairway when he jumped up and ran at a dead
heat into my arms saying that there was a scary boy.|
We often heard footsteps on the stairs and sometimes shuffling in the kitchen. Sometimes the kitchen cabinets would be open or lights on in the house when we hadn't left them on. This place was definitely haunted, no doubt about it in my mind.

Continue run from work environments in key of birmingham’s Soho, Badoo is simply a dating website that likewise allows visitors to visualize they’re simply aiming to create unique buddies. In addition, the picture is actually by all accounts employed.
So awed is Jimmy Wales, the creator of Wikipedia, he known as Badoo’s Russian originator Andrey Andreev being the online company visionary to observe this present year. “I’m thrilled by Badoo’s improvement to greater than 120 million clientele in an under-the-radar form,” Mr Wales revealed to Wired journal. “I’m impressed with how it operates, and curious from amusement like plan.”
Join up to Badoo and your monitor will be crammed up with photographs of singles in the secure area.
Jessica Powell, Badoo’s mind presenting policeman, gets a demonstrate on a new iphone. A part of the guy she finds should be an outstanding amount near. “Asif, 32, is definitely 200 yards out”.
Females that happen to be lately enlisted are often times strike on (or “pinged”) within minutes. “Ladies receive relocated toward more but once a talk has become established girls happen to be similarly just as talkative while the folks,” claims Ms Powell. “Ladies peruse increasingly and capture a gander at a whole lot more photographs, while the folks are much less picky.” But, she focus one more time, the web site isn’t practically accumulating accomplices – it is an excellent apparatus for discovering buddies an additional city.
“The opinion is: ‘how would we all imitate online the experience of getting into a dance club?’ It’s maybe not tied up alongside matchmaking in the manner that match.com or eharmony tends to be, they allows deeper adaptability.”
A good many visitors use the site basically dialogue, with twenty percent proceeding up to now. An everyday clientele will deal with someplace in the range of six and 10 people each and every month and see somewhere in the range of two and four of those.
Prospect offers confirmed way more well-known in Latin countries compared to Britain and also the usa – only 1 million o rtwo of every month customers are located in the UK (sixty percent become male and 33per cent are usually more than 35). Ms Powell states this improvement design and style is definitely incompletely caused by time – Mr Andreev well established Badoo in 2006 while surviving in The Balearics and it also initially spread by the northern Mediterranean and Latin The country. In a few Latin countries over a tenth on the internet based public is definitely enlisted.
To overcome hesitancy from Brits and americans, the web page possesses displayed “interests” stresses, giving visitors most motivations to talk. “It brings less possibility termination,” she says. “We need consider how we carry out the UK and us all [but it is] starting to build up.”
Not at all like other cyberspace escapades, Badoo is definitely profiting – they states it only takes about ?100m on a yearly basis in incomes. Clients spend around ?1.50 for a “Spotlight” accentuate that briefly elevates their own impression around the highest point associated with the display, and ?5 for a regular membership that gives a remarkable administration which integrate keeping ability to read other individuals’ users namelessly.
In the stage when Mr Andreev at first set-up Badoo the man organized some thing more like a standard internet based being webpage. Nevertheless, he transformed his opinion when he known that he couldn’t equal the amazing rise of facebook or twitter. “the man saw the structure the divider,” claims Powell. “He sat the group down and stated, ‘We are not any more about imparting data to your compyourions, we are tied in with associating you with individuals you don’t have the foggiest idea about.’ That altered things.”
Regardless if you’re relationships or maybe not, perhaps it’s a perfect opportunity to get up to Badoo.

Whether you are trying to get into the market or you’ve been in a while and want to keep track of one of your largest assets we all have different reasons for keeping an eye on the PNW Real Estate Market.
I’m sure you’ve heard there is more inventory on the market than there has been for quite some time.
While it’s still a great time to sell a house it’s more important than ever to price it right, get it ready and market it well. There is some competition out there and not all houses are getting multiple offers in just a few days, in fact many are hitting their review dates with no offers in hand.
Buyers are able to take a little more control over the process than they’ve been afforded for quite some time. Their options are better and the process has slowed down just a bit. With less multiple offer situations, if you are ready to buy now is a great opportunity to get into that home you’ve been wanting. I think you might enjoy the enclosed Q2 CB Bain Market Report.
If you have any questions or I can help please let me know.

Call For Proposals, Program Guidelines, and Application Form
Download a copy of the application form.
EC3 and Artsweek are holding Artsweek 2022 Application Info Sessions on December 16, 2021 at 5:00pm and 7:00pm.
Artsweek is Peterborough’s “festival of the arts” – an extravaganza of music, literary and spoken word arts, puppetry and kid’s programming, media arts, visual arts, circus arts, dance, theatre and performance of all kinds, unfolding in public spaces and established art venues across the city.
Artsweek typically takes place every other year. Artsweek 2020 was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic (replaced by Artsweek SHIFT), but makes its triumphant return in 2022!
2021 Festival Postponement
Artsweek was originally scheduled to return in September 2021; however, due to the ongoing uncertainties and challenges around COVID-19 health and safety regulations, the EC3 Board of Directors decided to postpone the event until June 2022, and re-open the Call for Proposals. This new timeline for the Festival will also give participants a longer time to develop their projects.
All applicants to the original 2021 Call for Proposals have been contacted and offered the option to move forward with their original applications for the new festival dates, or to revise their application and re-submit.
Call for Proposals
Since its beginning as part of the City of Peterborough’s Centennial Celebrations in 2005, this legacy project has brought new work to new audiences in unexpected ways, supported original creation by local artists, and celebrated Peterborough as an innovative, creative community with a vibrant arts scene. Projects can take place anywhere in the city, and proposals for “unexpected arts venues” are especially welcome.
Artsweek is produced by the Electric City Culture Council (EC3). The Festival typically includes approximately 30 projects, 60 events, more than 100 artists, and about 80 partners. Artsweek 2022 is a slightly modified version of the Festival due to the pressures of COVID-19, with a greater focus on commissions and co-productions.
If you would like to apply to be part of Artsweek 2022 and receive funding to support your project, please read all the information below before completing the application form at the end of this package.
Please use the checklist on the final page to ensure you have included all the required information. Applications are welcome from individual artists in any discipline, from all kinds and sizes of arts organizations, collectives, and associations, and from partnerships and collaborations between arts and non-arts applicants.

- The programming for the 2022 Festival will remain focused on the downtown core, however Artsweek looks to include some projects located outside of the downtown in a variety of wards and neighbourhoods as well. There are a number of sites that Artsweek is interested in programming, such as Jackson or other Parks, the London Street Footbridge, Riverview Park and Zoo and the Peterborough Lift Locks, among others. Artists are encouraged to summit site-specific ideas for these locations or suggest other potential sites/venues for their projects. Artsweek 2022 will feature fewer projects, of a larger scale than in previous years.

Artsweek will support artists in their applications/requests to other funding sources. Artsweek will collect donations at all events. That revenue goes to the overall costs of the Festival.

If your project involves working with a vulnerable community (e.g. minors, those living with mental illness, economic disadvantage, etc.), EC3 may require the completion and review of a Police Vulnerable Sector Check (PVSC) from any project participants who will be interacting directly with members of that community, before Artsweek funds can be released. Proof that the participant has recently passed a PVSC (within the last year) will also be acceptable. EC3 can cover the cost of the PVSC upon request.

- Available funds and potential impact will also be important criteria.

Kitesurfing in the Philippines - The Philippines are made up of over 7000 tiny islands with warm water, trade winds and literally endless beaches for kiteboarding. Many places are still untouched and as a kitesurfer you will find an adventurous paradise. The following guide will help you choose the best time of year to go, which islands to visit, how to get there and what you need to bring.
Pros and Cons
+ Respectful and welcoming community
- Getting there can take long hours of travel- your journey will likely include a plane, bus and ferry
- Vaccinations are a must- speak to your doctor before you go
What you Need to know about Kitesurfing in the Philippines
The best season for kiteboarding in the Philippines is between November and April during the NE-Monsoon (Amihan). The wind generally blows between 18-25 knots and some days more! You can join an organised tour/ kite camp or go exploring around the islands on your own. You will find amazing flat water, waves and endless beaches to explore- most islands have a reef just offshore so you can find waves and flat water at the same spot!
Kite Camps in the Philippines
Relax and reset among the wild nature of the Philippines at an eco-friendly resort designed for nature lovers. Combine yoga and kiteboarding for the perfect combinations of adrenaline, exercise, relaxation and meditation. Yoga will help to stretch and strengthen your muscles for your time on the water.
Kite Tours in the Philippines
Join a local islander and a group of kiters from around the world on an epic adventure of exploration and kiting. Hop island to island discovering endless, untouched beaches, lagoons and sandbars. This is a unique opportunity to experience remote islands and endless kite spots on accessible by boat. This is a true kiteboarding paradise!
Accommodations for Kitesurfer
Glamping tents and bamboo bungalows are the typical accommodations offered in the Philippines. Get the true beach experience by waking up to the sound of the ocean and wind through the walls of your tent, then step outside to breathtaking nature as the wind starts for the day.
Philippines for Beginners
The flat and warm waters of the Philippines offer perfect conditions for beginners. There are many kite centres scattered throughout the islands offering beginner lessons- the biggest and most developed bring Boracay. Other locations offering lessons for beginners include: Bagasbas, Cuyo, Coron, Seco Island, Siargao, Puerto Princesa, Mindoro, Balatasan and more!
What Makes Kiteboarding in the Philippines so Great
The Philippines are the definition of paradise for kiteboarders. You will find every type of riding including flat water and waves topped off with warm waters and reliable trade winds. In Boracay you will find the most infrastructure with less and less as you travel around the other islands. You can find comfort or explore the unknown to uninhabited islands and isolated beaches- the choice is yours.
Infrastructure Available in the Philippines
Boracay Island is the most popular and developed kiteboarding destination in the Philippines. Bulabog Beach is filled with kite schools offering anything you may need including lessons and rentals. The infrastructure is excellent with a variety of restaurants and nightclubs to choose from. The rest of the islands are quite undeveloped- all locations listed under “Philippines for Beginners” offer kite lessons and rentals but may lack other resources.
Airplanes, busses, ferries, jeepneys, tricycles, taxis or car rentals are available for getting around in the Philippines. Though taxis are generally way more expensive- it is sometimes more worth it when you have a ton of gear to carry around.
Other Activities to Enjoy
Go surfing, diving, SUPing or wakeboarding. Coron is world class for wreck diving and snorkelling. The kite season is also a great time to see whale sharks- a great no wind activity. If you are into the party scene be sure to check out Boracay and the cities including Manila and Angeles City.

The Portland Cement Association (PCA) named Michael Schon as vice president and counsel for government affairs. He will have lead responsibility for shepherding the association’s regulatory advocacy efforts and for promoting the cement industry in general.
Schon comes to PCA from Baker Botts L.L.P., where he served as senior associate in the environmental practice group.

“The cement and concrete manufacturers face a variety of regulatory issues that will determine the future of industry,” said A. Todd Johnston, vice president of government affairs at PCA. “We are delighted to have someone with Michael’s experience join our staff at this crucial time.”
Prior to his work at Baker Botts L.L.P., Schon served as trial attorney for the United States Department of Justice, and was a law clerk in the Arizona Court of Appeals. Schon holds his Juris Doctor from Arizona State University College of Law, and a baccalaureate degree in philosophy from Northern Arizona University.

Another Tech Support Firm Signs at 100 Wall Street
Apex Systems, Inc. has signed a new seven-year, 4,318-square-foot lease at Savanna’s 100 Wall Street, Commercial Observer has learned.
Savanna’s Downtown portfolio, which consists mostly of renovated older buildings with smaller floor plates, has benefited vastly from Downtown’s resurgence, as more and more tech/creative tenants flow south.
“They are being priced out of Midtown South,” Savanna’s Kevin Hoo said last week, “but there are also tenants that are choosing to be located in Downtown Manhattan, simply because the type of businesses they support are located Downtown.”
Apex Systems specializes in contract, temp-to-perm and direct placement hiring opportunities. Asking rents in the building are between $38 and $45 per square foot and the lease brings the building to 88 percent occupancy, with the firm planning to move in early April.
John Moxley of Jones Lang LaSalle represented the tenant, while Mitchell Konsker, Scott Cahaly and Kyle Young of Jones Lang LaSalle represented Savanna.
“East of Broadway, you have the older generation of buildings, smaller in plate, and they appeal to service providers that don’t require 50,000-square-foot plates… and that’s the sweet spot that we play in,” Mr. Hoo said.
That sweet spot recently got sweeter — and a lot bigger — in the firm’s Midtown South portfolio after it landed Twitter in a 141,000-square-foot lease for its new New York headquarters at 245 and 249 West 17th Street. Savanna had purchased that building in November 2012 and later outfitted it with one of its signature renovations.

The US House of Representatives has passed a bill that would inject $25bn (£19bn) into the Postal Service (USPS) ahead of November’s election.
The legislation would also block cuts and changes that critics have said will hamper mail-in voting.
Democratic Speaker Nancy Pelosi recalled lawmakers from the summer recess to vote on the bill, which she said would protect the USPS.
After the vote, President Trump tweeted the measure was a Democrat ballot scam.
“Representatives of the Post Office have repeatedly stated that they DO NOT NEED MONEY, and will not make changes, ” said Donald Trump. He has threatened to veto the bill, which is in any case unlikely to make progress in the Republican-controlled Senate.
Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell said the chamber would “absolutely not pass” the bill.
Postmaster General Louis DeJoy said earlier that further cost-cutting measures at the postal service would be suspended until after November’s vote.
A slowdown in mail deliveries amid cost-saving measures at USPS has fuelled fears about how one of the oldest and most trusted institutions in the US can handle an unprecedented influx of mail-in ballots due to the coronavirus pandemic.
President Trump strongly opposes mail-in ballots and has repeatedly suggested it could lead to widespread voter fraud despite there being no evidence for this.
The “Delivering for America Act” passed by the House in a rare Saturday sitting includes $25bn of emergency coronavirus funding requested by the USPS’s board of governors.
More than a dozen Republicans crossed the floor to vote with their Democratic opponents.
The bill would require the USPS to treat all official election correspondence as first-class mail.
The service would be prohibited until January 2021 from implementing or approving any changes to operations or service levels that would “impede prompt, reliable, and efficient service”, including closing or reducing the hours of post offices, removing mail sorting machines and mailboxes, or stopping overtime payments.
“This is not a partisan issue,” Democratic Representative Carolyn Maloney, the bill’s author, said before the debate. “It makes absolutely no sense to impose these kinds of dangerous cuts in the middle of a pandemic and just months before the elections in November.”
Ms Pelosi stressed that the USPS was not a business.

“While we always want to subject every federal dollar to the scrutiny of what we’re getting for it, let us remember that it is a service. No business that I can think of would ever be saddled with what we’ve done to the Postal Service,” she added.
Republican political leaders on Friday said Democrats had “sought to spread baseless conspiracy theories about the USPS for political gain” and had “manufactured a crisis to undermine President Trump at the expense of America’s institutions”.
They also condemned Democrats for pursuing for what they said was “an unnecessary bailout plan that does not fix any of the underlying operational issues”.
On Friday, the postmaster general told a Senate committee there had been “no changes to any policies with regard to election mail” and that the USPS was “fully capable and committed to delivering the nation’s election mail fully and on time”.
Mr DeJoy – a top Republican donor and former logistics executive appointed to lead the agency in May – acknowledged that the changes he had instigated had slowed some mail delivery, but insisted that it was “outrageous” to suggest they were intended to help President Trump in November.

As many already know, on Monday, March 23, instructional materials were made available to Devine ISD students via Google Classroom.
One of our local principals, Brenda Gardner stated, “I want you to know that if you have never thanked a teacher, do so now. They are true heroes. The Ciavarra ES staff, and all other staffs across the nation, has been amazing. Since Wednesday, they have conquered Google Classroom and the concept of online learning. We really never thought we would have to do this at an elementary school. They went from 0 to 100 in 48 hours. We cried, laughed and prayed! We will make mistakes–forgive us and be patient! We’ve got this!”
Intermediate Principal Blain Martin adds, “I assure you that there were tears shed in classrooms across this campus this week while teachers were preparing lessons. Teachers wish that your child could be in the classroom with them, but they understand that during these times everyone has to work to keep all people healthy and safe. If the need arises, reach out to your child’s teacher according to the individual classroom procedures…. The Devine community is so amazing. I spoke with many parents this week and everyone is so positive about the situation that we are going through. I am thankful for the understanding and the level of appreciation that they all have for Devine Schools and Devine teachers. I hope that everyone is safe and remains healthy!”

Effective solutions to the climate challenge threatening the world’s coral reefs require complex decisions about risk and uncertainty, timing, quality versus quantity as well as which species to support for the most robust and productive future, according to a science paper released today.
The Morrison Government today launched the research and development phase of its world leading Reef Restoration and Adaptation science Program to help preserve and restore the Great Barrier Reef in the face of rising ocean temperatures and coral bleaching.
Researchers are looking to harness the Great Barrier Reef’s massive size, to help it resist and recover from the impacts of climate change - such as coral bleaching and increasingly frequent and severe weather events.
Engaging the hearts and minds of Australians in reef restoration, finding the large amounts of money needed, and developing sophisticated modelling tools to guide decisions, will be explored at the international Great Barrier Reef Restoration Symposium, in Cairns today.
Experts will today provide a fascinating deep dive into the reef restoration innovations under investigation to help preserve and restore the Great Barrier Reef, at the international Great Barrier Reef Restoration Symposium, in Cairns.

Islamabad, 9 December 2021 (GNP/ TDI): On 8 December, the EU organized a film festival that shows award winnings European movies to audiences across Pakistan. The Pakistan National Council of Arts hosted a premiere of the first-ever European Film Festival (EUFF) in Islamabad.
To promote cultural dialogue, mutual understanding, and cultural cooperation, the ongoing European Film Festival will showcase a wide range of European films to a vast Pakistani audience.
First time in Pakistan, the European film festival takes place globally to praise the diversity and creativity of European cinema, tradition, and culture. Islamabad’s event brought together actors, filmmakers, journalists, diplomats, students, and representatives of civil society.
Thomas Seiler, Chargé d’affaires a.i., and the Deputy Head of the Mission at the EU Delegation to Pakistan stated:
“We are excited to be hosting the first-ever European Film Festival in Pakistan. This celebration of cultural diversity and cross-cultural dialogue through cinema highlights the EU’s firm commitment to strengthening its relationship with Pakistan, particularly at the people and local community levels. Film is a gateway to other cultures, which is why we have called it ‘Europe ki aik Jhalak’. It is an amazing medium that connects people across borders, faiths and ethnicities and celebrate our common humanity.”
On the opening night, three films, all co-productions, were shown. Two feature films, i.e. My Brother Chases Dinosaurs (Italy/Spain), as well as Our Struggle (Belgium/France), were shown. Following the screening, it held a panel discussion about “Family Relations.”
Elena Gomez Aoiz, Deputy Head of Mission Embassy of Spain, moderated the panel along with guests from the Pakistani film and TV fraternity including Sarmad Khoosat, Sania Saeed, Anam Abbas, Haris Khalique.
21 European films have been nominated to receive awards. They will be screened at this film festival, which highlighted the issues that reflected cultural diversity in Europe and their relevance to Pakistan. The training will be provided to young filmmakers from Pakistan, which will teach them the technical aspects of filmmaking.
Umar Riaz and Haya Fatima, two award-winning filmmakers, will manage the classes. Classes are open to all qualified participants, on a first come first basis.
On 12 December, the festival will also be moving to Pakistan’s other cities, such as Faisalabad in Peshawar, Karachi, and Lahore.
All public are welcome to attend the screenings at venues like Storia Art Gallery in Faislabad, Sethiyan Di Haveli in Peshawar, District 19 in Karachi, and Olo Junction in Lahore.

Nelson Mandela University student Charlize van Zyl, is gearing up for next year’s World Chess Olympiad and plans to fly the South African high on the international stage.
Van Zyl currently holds the record for being the youngest South African to win the Women’s International Masters title.
At 7, her father introduced her to chess, and she has not looked back since then.
From 2014 to 2017, the now 21-year-old took a break to focus on school but is now fully immersed in the game and tournaments around the world.
With chess still a developing sport in the country, van Zyl believes South Africa is on the right track to reach the standards set by the rest of the world.
Kimara Singh finds out more about the woman behind the chess board.
Charlize, thank you for the chat! What competitions have you attended in your career so far?
I have played in many, many tournaments, ranging from local to international with both Junior and Senior South African colours. The most prestigious has been being part of the South African women’s team at the 2018 World Chess Olympiad in Georgia. Next year I will also be part of the Olympiad team where the tournament will be held in Russia.
We know you are looking forward to this year’s World Chess Olympiad, is it one of your goals to compete and win at such a prestigious event? Please elaborate.
The Olympiad is one of the most prestigious tournaments in the world, where hundreds of countries send their best players to participate so it will always be an honour to represent South Africa here. I think that South Africa really has a great chance to be one of the best African countries, so this is what we will be working towards.
What got you started in chess and how long have you been involved in it?
My father introduced me to the game when I was about 7 years old. I started competing nationally at 8 and internationally for South Africa a year later. I took a break from 2014-2017 to focus on school, but since then I have been fully immersed in the game and tournaments.
Do you have a specific memory of participating in chess that you hold dear to your heart?
Through chess I have met so many wonderful people and have been to so many wonderful places, each giving me memories that will always be dear to me.
Who inspires you to do better and reach for your goals?
I am inspired by my father, who is the most passionate person about chess that I know. From a young age, I always tried to do my best to make him proud and I will continue to do so.
What is the highlight of your chess career so far?
When I was 13, I won the African Zonals event where I beat a few Women’s Grandmasters and Women’s International Masters and attained the Women’s International Masters title setting a record for being the youngest South African to ever do so.
How have you kept up your spirits during the lockdown?
Chess has had a massive boom during the lockdown period where many people have started to play, and many tournaments are taking place. This is all online of course, but it has really helped me during the lockdown as I have had a lot of time to work and improve, as well as introducing a lot of my students to the game.
How have you coped with not having any events and competitions and how are you planning for the uncertainty that lies ahead?
As I mentioned, there have been many events online including the Online Olympiad and the South African Qualifier event for this tournament, where I won the ladies section and had the opportunity to represent South Africa once again. Nevertheless, I do miss over the board tournaments and there is a lot of uncertainty around them starting up again but the best we can do right now is train and play online, preparing for the next tournament (whenever that may be).
How does it feel to represent your country? And what are you looking forward to most about being part of Team SA when you do end up competing again?
It will always be a great honour to represent South Africa, but in terms of our standings compared to the rest of the world (particularly Europe) we do still have a long way to go to reach that level. But I do think that we are growing, with a lot of up and coming talent so it is exciting to see where we will be in the next few years, and it is great to be part of that!
Also, even though I am competing as part of a team, at the end of the day chess is very much an individual sport where it is only you at the board (with your opponent) making every decision and subsequently only having yourself to blame if you play badly. So, there is an added pressure being part of a team as you aren’t just playing for yourself but playing to make your team and country proud too and I look forward to doing this in Russia next year.

Many will wonder why because wasn’t it only a few months ago that we were very strongly against the Energy Development Corporation’s road expansion into our last natural forest in Mt. Talinis. I am warned by some that the 10M in 10 is only “pahumot” and there may be ulterior motives to this movement.
I thought deep about this after needing to listen and needing to read the information available.
It is a fact that Negros Island has lost a great portion of its forest cover. (84 % as of 2010). It is a fact that there is a great urgency to reforest especially restore indigenous forests of Negros Island. We have seen reforestation efforts using exotic species of gmelina, mahogany and mangium. There are efforts by groups and individuals to do tree planting and tree growing but we know these efforts will never enough to achieve the healthy balance of forest needed for this island to get out of its critical condition.
Can any group do this ambitious program alone? Can EDC’s BINHI program plant 10 million trees in 10 years alone? Can DENR? We know it is not possible. But it is possible if we work together. A movement of this magnitude is no whimsical act. I lay aside any judgement to support this movement and I do this with my whole heart.
The idea to come from the business sector to unite as many LGUs, government agencies, NGOs, Church, schools and institutions, civil society and the business sector for a greener Negros is exciting. It is so essential to involve all sections of society and many have signed in as partners. It is in the spirit of 3-folding promoted by MISSION (Movement of Imaginals for Sustainable Societies through Initiatives, Organizing, and Networking) where government, civil society and business work together towards the common good.
If people were not to support this movement now for one reason or another, we would miss perhaps our only chance to green Negros Island and we would be the poorer for it. Even our very own survival would be at stake.
Imagine now Business, Government, and Civil Society united towards the greening of Negros Island. Imagine the connections made, the welding of networks, all for a sustainable planet (for movements like this will be copied and improved upon). Imagine humanity cooperating and working together. Yes, imagine. For it is happening now.

This thesis will outline the temporal changes and choices of colonial powers and individuals as expressed at historic frontier posts in the Midwest between 1683 and 1779 as expressed through their supply and usage of gunflints. Gunflints exist as persistent artifacts at historic sites, and especially so at fortifications like Fort de Chartres, Fort St. Joseph, Fort Michilimackinac and Fort Ouiatenon. These sites exist within the same chronological timeframe, from 1690-1780, and saw occupation by both the French and British, with nearby indigenous groups, and should serve as instructive means to investigate the factors involved in the supply, selection, and use of gunflints. The project examined gunflint distribution based upon factors such as country of manufacture, style, and approximate chronological dating in order to investigate the influence of political, economic, and military events of this time period upon the availability and use of these artifacts. This study will not base itself with a reliance upon a trait based analysis, but will drill deeper into the reasons for the choices these communities made when selecting gunflints with different styles and places of manufacture. In this way, a more profound understanding of a nation’s choices, as they pertained to gunflint modes and styles over time as well as a consideration of the various social, economic, and political factors which affected distribution and transportation to these interior forts will help to bring context and understanding in the choices made by military, civilians, and indigenous populations in the historic Midwest during this time period.
The pervasiveness of gunflints at historic archaeological sites in the Midwest makes them a potentially central line of evidence about chronology, political and economic control, and trade patterns during this period. While a chronological window narrowing the styles and types of gunflints available to the different nations did not prove possible, differences in the metrics of the gunflints at Fort de Chartres when compared to those at the other fortifications led to questions of supply and choice by the British at this fort in particular. Previously unstudied gunflints offered the opportunity for a thorough morphological, physical, and functional analysis. Additionally, these assemblages offered insight into gunflints use, supply, trade patterns, and choices by the military, civilian, and indigenous populations within these fortifications during this period, and opened up the discussion of preferences in regards to styles and types of gunflints. As the first real European presence in the interior, the French influenced political and economic patterns with the indigenous groups. With later British penetration, and eventual control, these patterns continued to shift, despite local French influences, with Fort de Chartres representing an anomaly when compared to the other French-turned-British forts.

I take things too seriously. I know that about myself like I know my eyes are brown.
Did I say I was going to do a thing on a day in a certain way? Then that’s what I’ll do. Except then life gets in the way and a kid gets sick, a kinky submissive gets sick, her Daddy Dom gets sick, or work gets crazy, or sleep becomes elusive, or, or, or.
I should say, “Fuck it.” I should say, “It’s okay. Life happens.”
But I don’t. I do other things instead.
I wonder what’s wrong with me. I berate myself for not being better. I promise myself I’ll try harder. The mean girl voices in my head call me lazy and a liar and tell me I’ll never reach my goals. They taunt me with all the things I want to get done but can’t seem to manage. The voices ask why I bother, it’ll never happen, and tell me to give up.
God, I hate those bitches.
The fact of the matter is that I’m harder on myself than anyone could ever be. Want to know why John Brownstone rarely has to punish me (although it happens)? It’s hard to beat up on someone when they’ve already done the work for you.
If I fall short, mess up, make a mistake, or simply have a moment where I’m human and just…can’t, you can’t be harsher with me than I am. It’s impossible.
And my idea of falling short isn’t the same as what other people think it should be.
Made a spelling or grammar error in a post? I remember it, and check myself five times before publishing a thing – Every. Single. Time. Forever.
Didn’t write a Masturbation Monday post (or read this week’s posts) because I was sick? Clearly I’m a failure. I’ll be judged for my lack of commitment, and they’ll be right. (My rational side knows this isn’t true, but the mean girls are vicious.)
Still haven’t edited the last book I wrote so I can finally get it released? How dare I call myself a writer?! All I do is make promises I can’t keep and I suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck. (And truly, it just needs fucking editing!!)
Made people wait three or four days (or longer) for a reply to their email? They’re going to think I’m ignoring them, don’t care, or a bitch. How could I be so rude?! (Y’all, I’m a mess.)
And yes, I know I need to get over it. Yes, I know I’m stressing myself out for nothing. Yes, I’m too hard on myself. I know all of it.
One of my greatest wishes in life is to say “Fuck it” and not feel guilty about it.
Didn’t have time to get my to-do list done? Fuck it, I’m taking a nap.
Hate the outcome of the American presidential election (and I really, really do). Fuck it, I’m burying my head in the sand for at least four years.
Bored by the work that pays the bills? Fuck it, we can be poor. I survived poverty twice, I can do it again. (Ugh, I would never do this, I promise!)
We have so many things to do and pay for, how dare I plan a freaking trip to London?! Fuck it, I just won’t go.
But my fuck-it bone is broken or I don’t have one at all, because once I latch onto something, decide it’s important, and give some of my energy to it, I can’t let it go, even down to the smallest details. So instead, I carry around guilty, anxiety, and stress over whatever my brain has decided is Really Important.
I promise, if I could, there’s so much I’d just say, “Fuck it” to. Including those mean girl voices in my head and my own too-high expectations. Really, I would.
Welcome to Wicked Wednesday. This week’s prompt was to write a “fucket” list, but my brain doesn’t have the bandwidth for that right now. It’s too busy wishing it didn’t care so damn much. If you want some ideas for your own fucket list, check out this week’s prompts.

When packing for a weekend away with friends, Myrthe van Dieijen was struggling to find the perfect piece in her wardrobe. Something stylish to wear in a shared house on a sun-drenched morning, before the day really begins. Something restful to wear before reclining into conversation on a deep sofa next to a log fire in the evening.
Myrthe wanted something beautifully designed yet comfortable. Playful yet elegant. What she found was uninspiring and dull, or high-fashion pieces with a price to match.
What followed was a whirlwind journey. Searching for the most sustainable, gorgeous fabrics the planet has to offer. Talking to real women about perfect nightwear. And meeting future co-founder Roosmarijn. With over 10 years’ experience working with some of the biggest, most desirable brands in the world, Roosmarijn’s passion and enthusiasm for the project was the final piece of the puzzle needed to bring their shared vision to life.
Together, Roosmarijn and Myrthe created the sleepwear they always wanted but could never find. Incorporating playful design, boundless comfort and affordable luxury. All built around the core principle of environmental sustainability.
Our pieces are timeless, and will become a staple in any wardrobe. Whether curled up on a sofa, or sipping cocktails with friends in vibrant Amsterdam, Le Nap aims to make you the most comfortable, confident person you can be.
Bold, unique design, produced responsibly. Fashion conscious, with a conscience.
We hope you will love our pieces as much as we do.

Amanda Wilkie unexpectedly finds herself alone with three children under five in a rambling Victorian house in London, after her husband walks leaves them claiming he’s just ‘lost the love’, like one might carelessly lose a glove.
A few months later, Amanda’s heavily pregnant friend, Ali, crashes into her kitchen announcing her partner is also about to abscond. Once Ali’s baby Grace is born, Amanda encourages them to move in. When Jacqui, a long-lost friend and fellow single mum, starts dropping by daily, the household is complete.
Getting divorced is no walk in the park, but the three friends refuse to be defined by it. And, as they slowly emerge out of the wreckage like a trio of sequin-clad Gloria Gaynors singing ‘I Will Survive’, they realise that anything is possible. Even loving again…
| Interview |
About the author
Janet Hoggarth has worked on a chicken farm, as a bookseller, children’s book editor and DJ with her best friend (under the name of Whitney and Britney). She has published several children’s books, the most recent ones written under the pseudonym of Jess Bright. Her first adult novel, The Single Mums’ Mansion is based on her experiences of living communally as a single parent.
- What book from your childhood still has a place in your heart today?
Good Night Mr Tom is still one of my all-time favourite books. I first read it when it won the Guardian Fiction Prize in the Eighties and must have re-read it five times. I read it as a bedtime book to my kids a few years ago and they all loved it too. Having my own children made the book even more poignant for me during the part where Will calls Tom, Dad, for the first time. I balled my eyes out!
- Which fictional character stayed with you long after you finished the book?
I love The Walsh Family novels by Marian Keyes, particularly Anna in Anybody Out There? And Rachel in Rachel’s Holiday. I could identify with both women going through a massive trauma as I was going through a divorce myself at the time of reading and felt both characters had something in common with the madness whirling round my own head.
- Can you tell us a little about your journey with your new release?
The Single Mums’ Mansion is based on my time living communally with a friend and all our children in one house while we went through distressing splits from our partners. It is the first time I have written for adults; all my previous books have been for children, some under the pseudonym, Jess Bright. When my agent read a secret blog I had written about my time living in the commune, he thought it would make an interesting adult fiction book. It was nerve wracking finding a publisher because it had been years since I had chanced my arm with an unsolicited manuscript, and in a genre I love reading myself. I felt a lot of pressure to be successful!
- Do you get an emotional connection to your character’s?
I do with all my characters I have ever written, even more so with this book because they are based on facets of real people living through actual events. I think it is important to feel connected to your characters because you have a job to translate that connection on the page to your readers. If you can’t feel an emotional tug, then the readers won’t either. I always liken it to being an actor. I become the characters while I am writing the scene. I try out voices, different mannerisms, sometimes I walk around the room being them and then commit it to paper (well, laptop!). I find that way I can get inside their heads and connect to emotions they’re feeling. I quite like writing men because I am obviously not one and it’s always a challenge to make them appear genuine when all I can do is base anything on my observations, my imagination and quizzing my husband.
- Can you please, share a photo with us that tells a story.
This photo is not as it seems. The man in the picture is now my husband, but at the time he was someone I was just casually dating. The picture was taken at our Royal Wedding Party April 29th 2011 when I lived with Vicki in the Single Mums’ Mansion. Vicki and I pledged to marry each other the same day as Kate and William because men were useless, and we would be friends for ever. We invited everyone we knew to come dressed in proper wedding gear, nearly all the women came in their wedding dresses, and we partied all day and night. I wore my dress from my first marriage and fittingly it got wrecked by the end of the day. The kids had no idea I was dating Neil, and this was only the second time he had had a proper outing as Mummy’s ‘friend’. After a few too many wines I forgot I was supposed to be keeping our romance under wraps and kissed him in public. Vicki took this picture and posted it on Facebook causing an avalanche of enquiries about Neil, with people asking if I had secretly got married again. A year later we were engaged and I got married for real, only not in white!
- What was your favourite read of 2017?
I totally loved The Miniaturist by Jessie Burton and her second novel, The Muse. Her writing is so unique and she creates worlds rich in colour, aromas and emotions so that you’re transported there, living through the events. I could smell the marzipan and the tallow candles in The Miniaturist and the oil paint in The Muse.
- If your book came with a theme song what would it be?
I Will Survive – for sure!
- Is the genre you write your favourite to read?
I don’t have a favourite genre. I do love Women’s Fiction, but I also read almost anything that piques my interest. Non-fiction is always on my bedside table. At the moment I am reading The Hidden Life of Trees. It is fascinating because everything in the book can be translated into life lessons for humans. It has made me want to explore more about nature and the universe. I often find I fall down a rabbit hole with a book and will then read all the other titles that author has written before coming back up for air. I went through a Malcolm Gladwell phase a few years ago! I was obsessed with horror and crime when I was younger.
- If you could ask your readers anything, what would you want to know?
I always want to know what makes you choose a particular book? Does the cover matter?
- What are you working on now?
I’m writing my second novel about a woman who inherits a café on the Scottish coast that holds many secrets and transforms everyone’s lives who visit it. I’m over halfway on the first draft and have eaten about twenty packets of digestives in the process. And chocolate. So much chocolate.

A Florida man was arrested for allegedly mocking Trump supporters and assaulting a police officer in Palm Harbor on Sunday, according to the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office.
“Scott Rexroat showed up at the rally at Nebraska Avenue and US-19 wearing a rebel flag, a Trump mask, and carrying a sign with Swastikas. He was allegedly taking photos with Trump supporters while calling them Nazis,” deputies told WFLA.
The officers alleged that the altercation nearly caused other fights as the Trump supporters were “pushing Rexroat out of their faces,” the outlet said.
When a deputy tried to pull him away, he said Rexroat hit him in the arm and shoulder. However, Rexroat claimed he thought it was another Trump supporter who touched him.
Video footage shows officers holding Rexroat on the ground as they worked to take him into custody:
Moments later, two other officers appeared and got Rexroat to his feet.
“The Sheriff’s Office said it couldn’t comment on the arrest because it is part of an active investigation, but did say the deputies were not wearing body cameras,” according to WMNF.
In regard to his sign, Rexroat told WFLA, “There were no swastikas like it says in the police report. I can read it here. It sounds like a bunch of fabricated lies to me. That I was instigating a riot.”
However, Trump supporter Brett Jennings claimed Rexroat was there on Saturday wearing the same outfit and had a sign with swastikas on it, WMNF reported.
“Jennings said Rexroat has been baiting and harassing Trump supporters for days and provided a video as evidence,” the article said.
The video allegedly showed him coloring over a swastika on a white sign with a black marker.
On what appeared to be his Facebook page, Rexroat shared a photo of the sign in question on Saturday:
Following his arrest, Rexroat was charged with disorderly conduct and battery on a law enforcement officer, according to WFLA.

There’s a longstanding tradition of artists collaborating with ballet companies, from Picasso’s Cubist sets for the Ballets Russes to Chagall’s costumes for the Magic Flute and Firebird. But rarely does an artist’s work inspire an entirely new ballet, as it did this past weekend when the the Austin Ballet premiered Grimm Tales, a production based on drawings by the New York-based artist Natalie Frank, who also created many of the resulting performance’s visual elements.
Ballet Austin artistic director Stephen Mills first saw Frank’s feminist reinterpretations of the Brothers Grimm’s fairy tales at the Drawing Center in New York in 2015 and, later, at the Blanton Museum in Austin. “First you see the colors, then the textures, and then you start to look at what’s going on narratively and—whoa—this is some strange stuff. It’s sensual, it’s sexual, and it’s very dark,” he said. In the past, he has staged such classics as the Nutcracker and Giselle, but it’s “exceptionally rare” to have the opportunity to produce contemporary ballet, he said. This felt like just the material to do it.
So how do two-dimensional drawings infuse all of the choreography, animation, and set design that goes into a ballet? We asked Frank to break down the process of translating her drawings into the Grimms’ fairy tale visuals, using the example of the title character of Act I, the Frog King.
Here, Frank tells the story, step-by-step—in her own words.
Natalie Frank’s costume drawing of the Frog King.
The Frog King is such a comedic figure. His daughter promised she would do anything the Frog requested in exchange for his retrieving her golden ball. His role is to force his daughter to obey her word.
Inspirational material for the Frog King.
For my drawing, I compiled all of the somewhat cliché ideas of what a king might wear. Constance Hoffman, the costume designer, and I both drew and also gathered historical imagery that we were interested in, such as the king and his ermine jacket. I loved this image because of the power clashing of the ermine, which I thought was so over the top and fabulous.
I also looked at many historical precedents for artists in collaboration with the ballet: the Ballets Russes, Chagall, David Hockney, Picasso, Florine Stettheimer, Leonor Fini, Matisse. After each individual round of drawing, we would meet in Constance’s studio to discuss and review and eventually spent a few days drawing and painting together and working on design and color. And we became great friends in the process.
Costume designer Constance Hoffman.
In the beginning, Constance Hoffman and I worked on drawing costumes individually in our studios. I did a complete run-through first of all the characters. After this, we met and Constance said, “You have such a complete vision for this performance, are you sure you want a costume designer, and don’t want to be the designer yourself?”
I insisted that no, I didn’t—and that’s the story of how she almost quit before we began! I knew how much I did not know about how costumes, colors, patterns, and fabrics would translate on stage; how simple or complex costumes needed to be to read on stage and not overwhelm all of the other elements of the dance: the movement, story, music, and the sets (which are new drawings I made for the production projected onto scrims). Of course, I also had no idea about how things were actually made, where the shops were, and who the designers and artists were with whom we would collaborate.
Hand-painted silk for the Frog King’s robe.
The green silk was hand-painted by Jeff Fender, who worked from our drawings and his imagination to integrate my hand into his fabric painting for most of the elements of the costumes, so they would all feel hand-painted. The gradations here are intended to mimic watercolor. My hope was that everything in the production would feel touched and shaped by hand.
The king’s robe.
The robe is for the king and is meant to show that there is a little frog in the king, who perhaps was once a frog himself. Colin Davis Jones built the Frog King and the Juniper Tree costumes and Eric Winterling, Inc., did the Snow White.
The hand-painted crown-mask worn by the Frog King.
The crown is connected to a mask, perhaps concealing the king’s true frog nature. We wanted to convey the idea that these representations of who we are—frog, king, princess—are mere representations, and perhaps our animalistic selves are really our truest ones.
Mio Guberinic constructed the head pieces and some costume elements, such as the crowns, boars, the Golden Bird, and the Frog King’s crown, which we painted together. I had never used acrylic before painting the props. It dried easily and quickly and I used an extender that made it behave like oil paint. Once it was used in the first dress rehearsal I realized that much of the subtlety wasn’t visible from the orchestra so I went back in and added in more contrast of light and dark throughout.
I was also taken aback at first by how large props are for the stage!
A dress rehearsal still of the The Frog King.
One of the best aspects of working on such a collaborative process has been how productive and inspiring working with such talented people has been. All of the people involved have been working at such a high level in their fields for a long time: for instance, Constance is a Tony-nominated designer who has done operas, ballets, and productions all over the world. She is such an established artist in her own right so the fact that she was open to bringing in another artist, integrating my viewpoint and ideas, and collaborating with someone who had no idea of the actual process of designing a costume, is so impressive, I would imagine rare, and meaningful. All of my collaborators: Stephen Mills, the artistic director who developed the dance; George Tsypin, the set designer; Edward Carey, who wrote our story; Graham Reynolds, who wrote the music; and Howard Werner, who animated my drawings, and I worked together as a team, and took initial inspiration from my drawings and book, Tales of the Brothers Grimm. Drawings by Natalie Frank.
It has been pretty amazing for this body of work to have a continued and three-dimensional life on the stage. And to know that it will be shared with a couple thousand people a night. We are hoping it will travel—I would love to bring the Grimm to New York!
Ballet Austin’s Grimm Tales runs at the Long Center from March 29 through March 31. Natalie Frank’s drawings can be seen in a two-person show with Amy Bessone in June at New York’s Salon 94, which recently announced its representation of the artist.

Engagement with the creative arts is gaining traction as a form of holistic healing, as an array of healthy outcomes can result from art therapy. Some people simply feel more alive, whole and fulfilled through art whether they produce it or simply observe it. In “Awakening Your Spiritual Self Through Art,” we learned more about quieting the mind and finding your path to artistic expression whether it be through painting, dancing, music, writing, or acting. Now, let’s explore some of the scientifically supported physical, emotional and spiritual healing benefits of art therapy.
Art Alleviates Anxiety
Stress and stress related conditions are a leading cause of death, and if something as simple as flexing your creative juices can extend your life—why not pick up an artistic hobby to help you ‘kill’ some ‘living’ time? After all, it’s estimated that most people have over 60,000 thoughts per day, and 95% of them are the SAME from day to day. Those repeating thoughts are typically stressors like bills, school, family, etc. leaving very little time for decompressing.
Much like meditation or even just zoning out, the creation of art can give one time to break free from those stressful thoughts, giving the brain a much needed respite. Science evidences that through fostering another’s artistic efforts or participating in them can actually enhance one’s emotions, mood and other psychological states that can have a salient effect on essential physiological parameters.
Art Boosts Brain Power
The Journal of Frontiers in Human Neuroscience published a fantastic study indicating that individuals who learned how to play at least one musical instrument during childhood appear to experience markedly less brain function decline as they aged. If this isn’t a prime reason to keep arts in the schools, what is?
Regardless of the art form, the brain and body are working in unison to make that magic happen, and it’s no secret that keeping the mind sharp is a key factor in slowing and preventing dementia later in life. Even though brain decline to some degree is likely with aging, many patients with memory conditions are asked to paint and draw to promote memory recall, as the mind sharpens through using the imagination.
Mental and Physical Benefits of Artistic Expression
For the past ten years, many health professionals and psychologists have been studying and documenting the many ways that the arts can be utilized to heal emotional wounds, alter behaviors and thinking patterns, and help one develop a greater capacity for self-reflection. Opening up to different forms of artistic expression gives one a way to connect with themselves on a much deeper intrinsic level, allowing them to heal past unresolved issues and truly HEAL.
Physically, it has been evidenced in a study by Berkeley University that when art creates a feeling of awe, cytokines are reduced. The presence of cytokines are essential in healing serious issues like infection and disease in addition to lowering depression levels. More obvious physical benefits will depend on the artistic endeavors undertaken, as some will improve strength, dexterity, flexibility, visual acumen and much more.
Essentially, art is one of the most natural ways to help you live a longer and happier life, so that’s reason enough to get awe-inspired and start your journey to wellness by enjoying the vast benefits of art therapy.

URFIND, WS 20/21
Tactile perception is not just the surface sensitivity of the skin, but a reaction of existence.
In the year 2120, brain and computer are working together. BMI (Brain-Machine Interfaces) has enabled entire societies to organize their members in the manner of an algorithm. Everything can now happen much faster and more efficiently. People adapt completely to BMI and can store all kinds of information in their heads in seconds, in order to
z. For example, to master a language or to read books. But at the same time, BMI's algorithms know not only exactly how you feel, but countless other things about you that you hardly think possible. Accordingly, people should no longer be guided by their feelings, but by these external algorithms. They support them in their pursuit of pleasant sensations, while the tolerance for unpleasant sensations decreases more and more.
Happiness, happiness, happiness ...
Due to the long use of BMI, the human body has become unimportant, everything is concentrated on the head. Its sense organs, eyes, mouth, nose and ears, continue to be used intensively, and sense of sight, sense of smell, sense of taste and sense of hearing are constantly stimulated. But the skin, actually the largest organ of the human being, which contains millions of touch receptors and forms the body's boundary with the outside world, has been forgotten. When the human brain becomes independent of the body, people also stop touching each other and lose tactile perception.
This is exactly what has happened, but now some realize that they are missing something and panic. Can they actually still exist as humans like this? Can the loss be reversed and the sense of touch reactivated?
Fortunately, a group of people long ago escaped the care of BMI and today lead a secluded life in which the natural sense organs continue to be used and play an important role. They are considered deviants by the rest of society, even though there is practically no contact between them. They knew how important the sense organs are and now they experience from a distance the consequences of the use of BMI that they feared. It seems to be their destiny to help humanity find the sense of touch again. So they invent a surface and call it Urfind. Secretly they install it in cities and wait for something to happen.
When you touch these contact surfaces, you can reacquaint yourself with your sense of touch. The soft fluffy surface, the flickering and vibrations that come out when you touch them, and you feel and see their reactions. Little by little, your senses are stimulated and you lose your shyness to communicate with them and engage with your own sensations.
It's something quite unfamiliar, a different living surface, a different skin, something about which you experience a whole new exchange.
My project aims to design haptically stimulating contact surfaces for public spaces, inspired by natural models, that encourage people's tactile perception. In a culture, when encounter and physical contact with real living beings has been interrupted or increasingly overlaid by inhibitions, it would be important to first reopen one's senses.
Urfind offers the possibility to playfully experience tactile sensations, to expand them and to connect them with the feeling of one's own physical presence. We are invited to touch the soft 'skin' and feel the long-same pulse of movement and light. Depending on the force with which the surface is touched, it shows different reactions. Unexpected color changes and vibrations draw us into a sensual exchange with the object and detach our perception from the reduced, predetermined patterns with which we grasp our surroundings.

Several airlines around the globe are trying to ban throwaway ticketing. Throwaway ticketing is one of the simplest travel hacks. Nonetheless, it violates airline rules and some airlines indeed punish passengers who use this practice repeatedly.
What exactly is throwaway ticketing?
According to United Airlines, throwaway ticketing is “[t]he booking and/or issuance and/or use of connecting and/or roundtrip tickets for the purpose of one–way or partial travel only.” Let’s look at a couple of examples.
First of all, some passengers buy a cheaper round-trip ticket with the intent to use it for one-way travel. Accordingly, they will only travel one-way and “throw away” the return trip.
Then there is “hidden-city ticketing.” Also known as skiplagging, hidden-city ticketing is basically another version of throwaway ticketing. Passengers wanting to travel from A to B will buy a cheaper ticket from A to C with a connecting flight at B. They will simply stay at B and throw away, or”skiplag”, the trip from B to C.
Passengers use throwaway ticketing to save money. Nonetheless, airlines contend that it is illegal as it violates their contracts of carriage. As a matter of fact, United Airlines‘ Booking and Ticketing Policy clearly states that throwaway ticketing is a prohibited practice.
Lufthansa recently sued a passenger for damages due to unpaid fares. However, the airline did not succeed. The court stated that Lufthansa was correct in taking the passenger to court. Nonetheless, the airline was not able to recover any damages because it was not clear how Lufthansa determined the amount it was owed.
Airlines lose money when passengers buy “throwaway tickets.” Accordingly, it makes sense why they are trying to ban this practice. Even though they will not come after every passenger who travels with a “throwaway ticket,” repeat offenders might have to worry. Airlines might charge passengers for the difference in ticket prices. Additionally, they might refuse to let passengers board the aircraft.
How do you feel about airlines trying to ban throwaway ticketing?

There are a lot of Texans fans who believe that trading J.J. Watt is something the team should seriously pursue. His injuries, his decline in performance when healthy in 2017, his $100 million contract and the team’s relative depth at his position lead some to conclude the Texans would be better off without the four-time first-team All-Pro defensive end.
It’s a notion that has gained traction in social media conversations and on sports talk radio. And while the sentiment is understandable and the concept worth at least discussing, it simply cannot happen. Trading Watt is both an irrational and nearly impossible idea for a variety of reasons.
One of the biggest reasons is what Watt could still be capable of on the field. The injuries have been frustrating, but the broken leg in 2017 was a fluke. He is recovering nicely by all accounts, including his own. In 2015, the last year he was healthy, he was the pre-eminent defensive lineman in the NFL. The freak physical ability might be diminished from the wear and tear, but the technical mastery, the hustle and the ability to set up moves over the course of a game, those will be back at full force.
Even at 80 percent of his prior physical capacity, Watt is still a better player than Christian Covington or Joel Heath, the men in line to replace him in the Texans lineup. They are good players, but they look better in lesser roles.
Then there is the matter of actually trading away the franchise icon and reigning NFL Man of the Year. The same reasons why any Houston fans would justify dealing Watt make him extraordinarily unattractive to other NFL teams.
Put the shoe on the other foot. Would you want the Texans to give up any meaningful assets for a 29-year-old with a base salary of $11 million this year, escalating to $17.5 million in three more years? One who has missed 24 of the last 32 games because of back surgery and a gruesome broken leg?
If Brian Gaine traded for that player, fans would show up at NRG Park with pitchforks in hand, demanding his immediate ouster. Don’t think for a minute other GMs around the NFL see it that way for their franchise.
His massive contract rules out more than half the teams in the league right away. Per the current figures at Over The Cap, only 14 teams have enough 2018 salary cap room available to afford Watt’s $14.2 million cap hit. Houston currently has over $35 million in cap room, so the Texans don’t need any sort of cap relief for trading Watt either.
Then there are the negative optics for the franchise. Watt remains incredibly popular with a significant portion of the Texans fan base. He’s also the leader inside the locker room, respected above any other Houston player. Teams don’t get better by dumping their leader pennies on the dollar. What kind of message does it send to dump someone who is so integrated into the community and vital to the team’s success?
The NFL is indeed a business, but part of being a business is being attractive to both customers and potential employees. How do you think potential Texans would view the team dumping the iconic Watt? (Hint: not favorably.)
Watt might not recapture his former greatness. But if he does, it would be heartbreaking for Texans fans, players and even non-football fans in the Houston area who have come to love everything that Watt has meant to them to see him do it in another uniform.
Like it or not, Watt is simply untradable.

Abstract: Increasing the thermal conductivity of an organic phase change material, all the while maintaining a high phase change enthalpy, is a difficult task. In this study, researchers took 1-tetradecanol/Ag nanowires composites, containing various wt% of Ag nanowires, and tested their thermal conductivities and phase change enthalpies. The results suggest the PCM composite containing 62.73 wt% of Ag nanowires is the most promising candidate for thermal conductivity enhancement of organic phase change materials, as it showed a remarkably high thermal conductivity of 1.46 W/mK, while still maintaining a reasonably high phase change enthalpy of 76.5 J/g. Researchers deemed this behaviour possible as fewer thermal conduct interfaces are present, alongside a high aspect ratio of Ag nanowires.

Christie Nicolaides, designer and founder, Christie Nicolaides Designer Jewellery
I feel incredibly privileged and to see women wearing my designs gives me great satisfaction ...
The unique, hand-crafted jewellery of Christie Nicolaides have graced the pages of Australian Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, InStyle, Elle and Grazia, as well as the lobes and napes of some of Australia’s most fashionable folks. The jewellery designer’s store on Edward Street has become a go-to shopping destination for many that covet the maker’s elegant wares – its retail space as eye-catching and sharply crafted as any piece you’ll spy inside. We caught up with Christie Nicolaides herself to discuss her inspirations, her latest range and what she loves about being based in the heart of Brisbane City.
We’d love to start with career beginnings – what inspired your love for jewellery design and encouraged you to embark on a career crafting wearable pieces?
I have always had a passion for jewellery. I started as collector of vintage runway and antique pieces. A lot of my spare time was spent researching and sourcing – over time it became more than just a hobby.
Where do you typically draw influence for your pieces when embarking on the design process?
I’m inspired by contemporary art, architecture, design, film and antiquities.
Your boutique on Edward Street is stunning – can you share any details as to what informed its interior design and decorative aesthetic?
I worked with friends and architects Richards and Spence to create my studio and showroom. It was important to create a space that has European sensibilities. I wanted to create a space that was immersive – a little oasis in the middle of the city. From the street you enter through a narrow door into a glistening treasure trove.
What was it about Brisbane City that encouraged you to open your retail space in the area as opposed to other popular shopping precincts?
I fell in love with the former shipping warehouse known as the R.Martin and Co. building on Edward Street. It was constructed in the 1800s and the heritage was ideal or my showroom – the building in itself is a jewel.
You’ve no doubt spent a lot of time in The City – what would you say are some of the area’s best hidden gems?
I spend a lot of time in the Botanical Gardens with my daughter, Ariadne. You couldn’t find a more perfect place to chase after a toddler. A visit to our neighbour Maison Fleur is always a beautiful experience, too – we love to watch the beautiful flowers come and go from their studio. Also a coffee at Spencer makes you feel as though you could be in the cute laneways reminiscent of Melbourne.
Tell us about what you’re working on now! Do you have any new collections on the horizon or covetable pieces that have recently been added to your range?
I have just launched the CRUISE 22 Collection ‘Lido’ which is inspired by summers’ spent by the sea and I am also very busy working on next year’s collection. In addition, I’m preparing to open my new store on William Street in Paddington, Sydney!
Your pieces are coveted the world over, with many well-known style queens adorning your jewels. What has been the most ‘pinch-me’ moment for you in your journey so far?
I have ‘pinch me’ moments all the time – I feel incredibly privileged and to see women wearing my designs gives me great satisfaction.
Finally, what advice would you give to a young creative looking to try their hand at jewellery making?
Christie Nicolaides’ flagship store can be found at 41 Edward Street (on the corner of Edward and Margaret Street). You can also browse her collection via the brand’s website.

Nexus eWater is introducing a system to recycle homes’ grey water so it can be reused on landscapes and in toilets, reducing homeowners’ potable water usage by more than 35 percent. The company’s home water recycling solutions are attracting the interest of California builders. Bob Hitchner, the company’s chief marketing officer, shares how the system works.
What is the history of the company and why is it now located in San Diego, California?
We started in the grey water business in Australia, which endured a decade-long drought into the early part of this century. Australia was forced to innovate earlier than the U.S. in using and reusing water in safe and effective ways.
Through this experience, we learned how important it is to develop solutions that will work automatically in the background without active homeowner engagement.
When we set up a new company to explore new product innovations, we immediately decided to set our sights on the U.S. market. The U.S. market is larger and has not yet really addressed the deeper questions of how to reorganize its infrastructure and even its lifestyles to use water more effectively.
When we knew that we would be the first company to certify an onsite solution to the NSF-350 standard for grey water, which is required in the California Plumbing Code, we knew we needed to move the core of our operations to California.
What exactly is NSF-350?
The NSF-350 standard is the gold standard for certifying equipment for on-site grey water treatment. This certification ensures the equipment is designed to consistently treat grey water to a high level of quality that is safe to use in non-potable applications.
What interest has Nexus received from homebuilders in offering your technology in new homes?
Homebuilders have three good reasons to incorporate our solution in their homes:
- To prepare for a possible future when water for landscapes is restricted even more than today.
- To build their brand and learn how to build homes that are livable even in extreme or long-term drought.
- To address homebuyer concerns about preserving home resale values during more extreme drought.
What do you see as the role of Nexus in conserving water, particularly on landscapes?
California water policy is changing very quickly right now. Our solution is merely one tool for translating good policy into everyday practice.
In several years, I hope every new home in California will be dual-plumbed so it can easily upgrade to onsite water recycling at any point in its lifetime.
How much does a typical installation cost, and what do you estimate the ROI to be?
Each installation can be quite different. Some homebuyers, especially in the high-end custom home segment, also want expansive service to come as part of what they buy. So costs range from $10,000 to $15,000, including all labor.
Since buyers today want to protect their landscape investments, payback is virtually immediate.

What can we do with broken milk?
Try using slightly spoiled milk in one of the following culinary applications:
- Baked goods. Substitute spoiled milk for regular milk, buttermilk, yogurt, or sour cream in recipes like biscuits, pancakes, scones, and cornbread.
- Soups and stews.
- Salad dressing.
What if I drink cracked milk?
Generally, as long as the milk smells and looks OK, it’s probably still safe to consume. But even accidentally consuming milk that has gone a little sour probably isn’t going to cause a serious illness, since the pasteurization process kills most disease-causing pathogens.
Can we eat curdled milk?
With sauces and soups that contain milk, boiling or simmering can cause the milk to curdle. While curdled milk is safe to eat, it is not particularly appetizing.
Can you fix spoiled milk?
Sour milk is a good replacement for buttermilk, yogurt, or sour cream. Some recipes even call for “soured milk,” which requires you to add a spoonful of vinegar to milk.
Can spoiled milk kill you?
Toxicity: Drinking a swallow or two of spoiled milk may cause no symptoms at all or possible minor gastrointestinal symptoms. The milk sold today is pasteurized, meaning the milk is heated for a brief period of time to kill disease-causing bacteria; however, this process does not kill ALL bacteria.
Can you boil spoiled milk?
The sour taste of spoiled milk comes from lactic acid produced by bacteria consuming the milk’s lactose. … Boiling might kill those bacteria, but it won’t remove the acid or reverse the curdling, so the milk would be ‘safe’ but also still sour and chunky, and entirely disgusting to try and drink.
How long does milk last once opened?
According to Eat By Date, once opened, all milk lasts 4-7 days past its printed date, if refrigerated. If unopened, whole milk lasts 5-7 days, reduced-fat and skim milk last 7 days and non-fat and lactose-free milk last 7-10 days past its printed date, if refrigerated.
Why does jaggery spoil milk?
The acidity in the jaggery will curdle the milk if they boil together. If adding raisins to the kheer, add it at the end after switching it off the flame. The acidic nature of raisins may curdle the hot milk. Using whole fat milk also helps in preventing curdling.
Is sour milk safe to drink?
Yes, sour milk is safe to use If the milk does not have any off-putting smell or taste, you can still use it. If milk has gone a little sour, it is still safe for consumption.
Can curdled milk make you sick?
First of all, spoiled milk can indeed curdle. And trust us when we say this: You definitely don’t want to drink spoiled milk. You risk exposing yourself to harmful pathogens if you do — some of which can cause a nasty bout of food poisoning. To find out whether your milk has spoiled, you ‘ll need to do a sniff test.
Is it OK to drink curdled milk in coffee?
It’s the unintentional curdling of milk that’s past its expiration date, or has been left out all day, that can make you sick. But if it’s perfectly fresh and it curdles in your coffee, there’s no harm in drinking it.
Why is my milk curdling in the fridge?
The warmer temps and frequent temperature fluctuations can put food at risk of spoiling, especially milk and cream. Although a gallon or half gallon of milk may fit perfectly in the fridge door bins, the warmer temps may make the liquid curdle before you can possibly drink it.
How can you tell if milk is spoiled?
Spoiled milk has a distinct sour odor, which is due to lactic acid produced by bacteria. Other signs of spoilage include a slightly yellow color and lumpy texture (15). Signs that your milk has spoiled and may not be safe to drink include a sour smell and taste, change in color, and lumpy texture.
How long does it take to get sick from bad milk?
Depending on the food (and your body), food poisoning can occur several hours — or even several days — after drinking spoiled milk. Most often, food poisoning is mild, and symptoms will pass within a day or two.
Is yogurt spoiled milk?
Yogurt is basically a form of curdled milk much like sour cream and creme fraiche, but with less fat. In commercial manufacturing, the friendly bacteria is added, but if you were to heat fresh milk and keep it at about 100 F for a few hours, it would naturally turn to yogurt in the comfort of your own home.

Not Until We Are Lost is a beautiful thing. Ockham’s Razor has created a delicate, comtemplative aerial show, which is a hymn to flight and the human body. Performers Alex Harvey, Tina Koch, Charlotte Mooney, Luke Horley and Haike Irina Amelia Stollbrock push themselves to their limits as they soar around Circomedia’s gorgeous space inside an old church.
The piece, which is made up of vignettes exploring what it means to be lost – and found – is at its best when all five of the group scramble and clamber across and above the audience. Having the freedom to wander is lovely; there is none of the fear or irritation that some promenade pieces provoke where you are constantly worrying that you’re missing something. Just look up and you can see the whole thing.
Some of the pieces featuring just two or three performers are less effective, with less exciting choreography that becomes slightly repetitious. However, this is only noticeable because we are so spoiled by the group pieces: when all five performers move together, whether on a frame high above our heads or inside a clear tower, they create something magical. The penultimate piece, where a huge metal frame is turned into a giant swing, has audience and performers alike beaming.
The show is remarkable not only because of the feats of which these five are capable, impressive though they all are, but also because they inject wit and humour into every piece, too. It’s surprisingly funny, and the interactions between the performers are nicely judged – they pull off just the right amount of jokiness and reaction to each other without becoming pantomimic.
The accompanying music, composed by Graham Fitkin and played live by Ruth Wall (harp) and Kate Halsall (piano) is beautiful, too, and provides a satisfying backdrop to the aerial wizardry. There is a small choir interspersed throughout the audience who join in periodically, and their plainsong-esque melodies echo through the church, by turns meancholy and euphoric. You really can’t beat the acoustics at Circomedia.
Without any dialogue, Not Until We Are Lost manages to convey a deep sense of loss, of friendship/kinship, of trust and of joy. Exploring different ways of being lost, conventional narratives about rescue and love are subverted in pleasing ways. The sheer joy that the performers bring to this show is infectious. I defy you not to leave with a smile on your face.
Not Until We Are Lost is at Circomedia in Bristol as part of Mayfest. For more information, visit the Mayfest website.

Dame Sarah Storey claimed the 17th title of her cycling career and her second at the 2015 Para-cycling Road World Championships by winning Saturday's road race.
The 37-year-old followed Thursday's time-trial triumph with a comfortable victory after attacking on the first lap in Nottwil, Switzerland.
Storey finished well clear of Poland's Anna Harkowska, who also finished second to Storey in the time trial.
"I feel really good," said Storey.
"The worlds before a Paralympic year, in any sport, are the hardest because everyone wants to take the psychological advantage into the Paralympic year.
"Next year will be my third Paralympics as a cyclist, and you need to take those psychological scalps. The next 12 months people really begin to ramp it up so it's a really good indication of where you are and what you need to do."
Storey is Britain's most decorated female Paralympian with 22 medals.
She has won 11 gold, eight silver and three bronze medals in both cycling and swimming across six Paralympics.
Storey won four golds at the 2012 Games in London and has now won 22 world titles across both sports.
She began her sporting career in the pool, winning six medals at the 1992 Paralympics before switching to cycling in 2005.
|The golden girl|
|Storey won her first Paralympic gold medals in the 1992 games. She won six medals in total in the pool in Barcelona.||She switched to cycling in 2005 and won gold on the track and the road in Beijing three years later.|
|Storey also won five world titles in swimming between 1994 and 2002.||Across both sports, Storey has won a total of 60 medals at the Paralympics and world championships|
Elsewhere, Simon Price finished fourth in the C2 men's road race after a closely contested sprint finish. Hannah Dines (T2) and Megan Giglia (C3) also finished fourth - although neither was in medal contention.
Lora Turnham and Corrine Hall - the defending world champions - came sixth in the women's tandem race. An early attack left Steve Bate and Adam Duggleby out of the running in the men's tandem event.
