I'm back in Seattle after an excellent RubyConf in Orlando, FL. These events are always a treat, and this year's was no exception. Last year the dominant theme was alternate implementations, and this time around it has become an ingrained assumption rather than something that needed to be stated. Distributed version control has also graduated to something that can practically be taken for granted—at least half the slide sets referenced github repositories.
But the big theme for the year was concurrency. A number of talks were given on the topic of going distributed, map/reduce-type strategies, how to deal with threads/fibers, etc. Particularly interesting was Dave Thomas's keynote. To encourage new developments, he said, we should spin off forks of the language (not necessarily the implementation) where incompatible changes can be experimented with freely without worrying about cluttering up mainline Ruby. Parallelism and reducing the number of built-in (and hence inextensible) mechanisms were the main directions he suggested. I like the idea, but such a project would be able to attract more contributors if it were based on Rubinius instead of MRI or YARV, so it may be best to wait until that's closer to completion. The talk on NeverBlock was also very interesting; they seem to have a way to harness the benefits of an event-driven approach without the twisty execution flow logic that regular EventMachine requires.
My personal favourite talk was John Barnette and Aaron Patterson's talk on Johnson, the Ruby/Javascript bridge. They turned the hilarity gauge way up, but the actual code is extremely impressive. Being able to hop between languages like Johnson allows could have some interesting implications that no one has yet thought of.
As I mentioned earlier, the Seattle Ruby Group presented a bunch of our projects near the end of the conference. I got to introduce Bus Scheme in ten minutes, so it was a very cursory look. Aaron performed a "historical re-enactment" of the group's history that had to be seen to be appreciated.
As usual, a lot of code was written during the conference. One of the things that I got to help with was the addition of support for prerelease versions in Rubygems. The lack of such support has been shown to be particularly annoying with the impending release of Rails 2.2, since they are using 2.2.0 as a prerelease version number and calling 2.2.1 their first stable 2.2 release. It'd be better if Rubygems allowed 2.2.0.a to be treated specially as a prerelease version that would be superceded by a later real release, and that's what Josh Susser, Alex Vollmer, and myself worked on. I'll post more about this when it's complete.
Lots of thanks are due to the RubyCentral team who are somehow able to consistently pull off these amazing events. I'm also really looking forward to Confreaks posting the videos of the conference so I can catch the talks I missed; thanks guys!

Manzanita Cove Conservancy
About This Conservancy
Manzanita Cove Conservancy was established as part of government's land use decision for the North Coast planning area. The conservancy protects the viewscape surrounding a historical point of interest centred on an 1896 US Army Corp of Engineers stone house that dates from the United States-Canada boundary dispute in the late 19th century. Manzanita Cove Conservancy protects an anchorage at the mouth of Portland Canal and is located on the east side of Wales Island. Manzanita Cove Conservancy covers 27 hectares of upland and 35 hectares of foreshore. The conservancy includes the land portion of Wales Island adjacent to Manzanita Cove, and the foreshore and intertidal areas covered by water within 200 metres of the high tide line.
Conservancy Size: 62 hectares – 27 hectares of upland and 35 hectares of foreshore
Date Established: June 27, 2008
Nature and Culture
- History: An 1896 United States Army Corp of Engineers stone house that dates from the Canada/United States boundary dispute in the late 19th century is located on the south side of Manzanita Cove, near the mouth of the cove.
Cultural Heritage: Manzanita Cove Conservancy encompasses a bay and surrounding upland and intertidal area where the Coast Tsimshian have strong cultural interests, including the desire to pursue their traditional activities as they have done for millennia, in a manner that sustains the biological diversity and natural values of the bay.
The area has been, and continues to be, an important source of natural resources for food, medicines, cultural materials, and economic goods.
To date, no known archaeological sites have been recorded in the conservancy. The lack of identified archaeological sites in Manzanita Cove is typical for the British Columbia north coast where few detailed archaeological assessments have been completed. Future archeological site inventories may yet identify additional cultural heritage and archaeological resources within the Manzanita Cove Conservancy.
Manzanita Cove Conservancy plays a role in preserving and maintaining cultural heritage values for ongoing social, ceremonial, economic and cultural uses by First Nations, and protecting the viewscape of the historic stone house.
- Conservation: Knowledge of the conservancy's flora and fauna, especially ecosystems, ecological communities and species of conservation concern, is incomplete.
- Wildlife: Marine wildlife species that have been recorded in or near the conservancy are; grey whales, harbour porpoises, humpback whales, killer whales, marbled murrelets, and pacific white-sided dolphins.

Heterogeneous stochastic neuronal networks
We present results from studies of networks of coupled neuronal units. Units are considered as oscillatory, excitabie and chaotic. In the talk we will concentrate on the influence of noise in the collective dynamics of the network, on effects of network-disorder and -correlations, and on modifications arising from the interaction of several distinct populations of stochastic neurons. For all these topics paradigmatic models for phases of the neurons are introduced and will be investigated. Outgoing from the stochastic dynamics of the ensemble of neurons, we formulate nonlinear balance equations for the order parameters of the composite network. Afterward, we study them by bifurcation theory and obtain dependencies on the noise intensity, strength of disorder/heterogeneity and of correlations. Computer simulations support the findings, but show also the limitations of the made approximations in certain cases as will be discussed in the talk.

Harrison Barnes had a huge weekend, tying the knot with Brittany Johnson. The wedding brought out the stars, including Barnes' longtime friend from AAU days, Kyrie Irving, and former Golden State Warriors teammate Steph Curry.
Curry posted his well wishes on his Instagram account
Curry was also having a good time during the wedding, with a video of him imitating LeBron James' dance moves surfacing. James' teammate, for now at least, Kyrie Irving seemed to be entertained.
For those who may be unaware, Curry's dance moves stem from this video James posted to his Instagram account shortly after he and Irving fell to Curry and the Warriors this past summer in the NBA Finals.
Irving recently expressed that he wanted to be traded so that he could step out of James' shadow. The two former No. 1 overall picks have led the Cavaliers to three straight trips to the NBA Finals, all against Curry's Warriors, while coming out victorious in 2016.

Darlings, just a quick post tonight on this lovely vintage vamp look. This look from the silent film era began emerging in the mid-1910′s and continued to play strongly into the post-WWI emphasis for heavier makeup and more sexualized beauty. The dark eyes, evoking the sinister sexuality of the female vampire (or "vamp"), are also a nod to the vogue for Orientalism and all things exotic at the time, deliciously embodied by the striking Theda Bara in the banner pic left. Hope this gets your creative juices flowing for Halloween, my dears…
The silent film era of the 1920's was full of glamorous movie stars, such as Louise Brooks, Pola Negri, Pina Menichelli and Clara Bow. Women were mysterious, beautiful and heavily made up for the camera. The look was very distinct and included short, wavy hair, dark crimson lips and sparse eyebrows. This is a perfect look for a 1920's party or a Halloween costume. You don't have to be a makeup artist to do this yourself, but there are specific things to do to create a realistic silent film star look!
The makeup:
I think this is really beautiful feminine, yet dark and mysterious look; the roaring 1920's were called so for a reason; short skirts and dark makeup.
The 1920's vamp had a pale face, dramatic eyes and eyebrows and crimson lips. The basic look was powdered and pale. Women used loose powder, slightly lighter than their natural color, and never applied it to their bare skin. They would apply powder on a puff to their face (still moist from facial cream) to create a pasty look. The modern method is to apply foundation and dust all over with powder.
The hair:
Marcel waves can be tricky to create, especially when you have longer hair. Since this was a hairstyle popular in the late 1920's/early 1930's, when many women had bob haircuts, it'd be much easier to accomplish with a short haircut.
Anyway, there are some tricks to creating this look, but some do require using a curling iron or flat iron. My cousin bought me in Berlin Iron Babyliss Pro Wave 3 Branches - I'm so happy and satisfied with it!
I learned how to create Marcel waves with fingers too, maybe this will help you: creating finger waves.
Recreating the Twenties look with vintage is do-able but good condition clothing is both expensive and hard to find. A good starting point is etsy.com.
My look for a 1920's party:
For this look - I've done my nails with a 1930's manicure.
As you can see, only the center of the fingernail was painted. The half-moons and the tips were left bare.
I love this photo of Joan Crawford, it's got such atmosphere and style, and just look at that manicure!
I love this photo of Joan Crawford, it's got such atmosphere and style, and just look at that manicure!
I'm sorry for not posting lately.
I'm ALWAYS so busy.
Hope I'll have more free time in the future to share with you outfits, inspirations and everything about my lifestyle.
With love,

I'm just wondering because if you talk to your rival in his/her house they say if they find you on a route, he/she will battle you. I never played the orginial so I'm curious. Please help me! Thanks! :)
Unfortunately not.
The last time you battle your rival is before the Delta Episode, at Route 103 where you first battled them.

Originally from 30.04.15 – Sketches of an idea
I have you know I am a very attractive man. Parhaps a little on the fugly side now but back in the day. Why are you looking at me like that? The gays love me. Its true. They've invited me on a number of occasions to join their club but I had to decline. Too much hugging…and Abba…I hate Abba. Besides with me there can only ever be one cock in the room
-and that'll be you
-So you never tried? You know…
You mean?
What about you?
-Sure. I've though about it.
So have I
-I knew it!
No I meant you and another girl. I've thought about that.
Thought you should know … whilst we're sharing. Did I cross a line? Sorry.
Lets just say I wasn't always such a snappy dresser. Shall we continue?

Cannon Senior Editor
It was 1878, the year Edison patented his phonograph and Tchaikovsky composed his only violin concerto. And in Victorian-era Toronto—a city of muddy streets, gas lamps, and horse-drawn carriages—the School of Practical Science opened its doors for the very first time.
The idea of creating a professional school that could help Ontario keep up with the rapid pace of technological change was first put forth in 1871, by a two-man commission in the provincial government. The proposal was initially met with strong pushback from legislators, who were wary of the high cost (around $50,000) and potential redundancies with the University of Toronto (which already offered a two-year, albeit insufficiently rigorous civil engineering course). Nonetheless, a bill was eventually passed in 1873 to formally establish the school, with the goal of promoting the "development of the mineral and economic resources of the province."
A small three-story, red-brick building, which would come to be known as the "Little Red School House", was built on the University grounds in 1878. All that remained was to fill the crucial position of Chair of Engineering. In late June of 1878, the position was advertised in provincial newspapers and two scientific journals; nine men responded to the posting.
One of them was John Galbraith of Port Hope, Ontario, who was a graduate in honour Mathematics of the Faculty of Arts at the University of Toronto in 1868, and a recipient of both the gold medal in mathematics and the Prince of Wales Medal for overall proficiency. Following graduation, Galbraith held a number of engineering positions—from division engineer for the Canadian Pacific Railway, to mechanical draftsman for a company that manufactured machinery like steam engines and grain elevators. He later returned to the University to receive his Master of Arts in 1875.
Galbraith's outstanding academic qualifications and ten years of extensive practical experience set him apart from the eight other applicants, and he was hired on September 28th, a few weeks after his 32nd birthday.
The First Term: Fall, 1878
In its earliest incarnation, the School offered a three-year program for a diploma that could be obtained in one of three departments: 1) Engineering, which included Civil, Mechanical, and Mining; 2) Assaying and Mining Geology; and 3) Analytical and Applied Chemistry. Courses for the engineering department were common among all three branches for the first two years, and in third year students would specialize in a branch of their choice.
The School served a dual purpose during its early years, as both a government-funded professional school and an extra building for the University of Toronto. Classes for the School of Practical Science took place on the second floor, which had a small private room, a library, a drafting room, and a lecture room that was shared with the University. The rest of the building was used by the University for courses ranging from mineralogy and geology, to biology and chemistry.
As the School's only engineering professor, Galbraith was responsible for delivering all engineering courses. In addition to Galbraith, the faculty consisted of five other professors from the University: Prof. R. Ramsay Wright (Biology), Prof. H.H. Croft (Chemistry), Prof. E.J. Chapman (Mineralogy and Geology), Prof. J. Loudon (Mathematics and Natural Philosophy), and Prof. W.H. Ellis (Chemistry).
A sessional report submitted to Ontario's Lieutenant Governor in December 1878 offers a glimpse into a school still in its infancy.
"The First Term of the present Session opened on the Third of October," reports Prof. Wright, who was then-acting secretary of the School, "and although the fittings of the Building had hardly been completed, the Lectures and Courses of Practical Instruction were begun in most of the Departments."
Seven full-time students entered that year, all of whom were enrolled in the engineering department. And of them, Wright says, "several have been previously engaged in practical Engineering work, and have entered the School with the object of gaining a more scientific and complete knowledge of their profession…" There were also several occasional students from the University, as well as from various medical and veterinary schools around the city, who were taking courses at the School in chemistry, biology, and mineralogy.
With the fall term wrapped up, Wright was happy to report that the terminal examinations had "indicated gratifying progress."
Student Life
In the 1922 issue of the Transactions of the University of Toronto Engineering Society, several alumni and former faculty members from the "Old Red School" were asked to share their experiences. These are just a few of the many colourful anecdotes they told:
James L. Morris was the School's very first graduate, having completed his diploma in Civil Engineering in 1881. He remembers the "October sports", like steeplechase and walking races, held on the lawn in front of University College, and the Literary and Scientific Societies where one could listen to essays and speeches by the Arts students.
J.H. Kennedy ('82) recalls "the mischievous spirit of having fun with the Toronto police." He recounts an incident when, after a school assembly, he and hundreds of other students from the University marched up Yonge to Bloor Street—singing college songs and tapping "heavy hickory canes" on the sidewalk. They eventually encountered the police and several students "were arrested upon their way home", but "a collection was taken up the next day" and their fines were paid.
According to Prof. Loudon, the theatre was a "great attraction" for students; Friday nights and Saturday afternoons were often spent at the Grand Opera House for a Shakespearean play. One thing that stood out to Loudon during those early days of the School was the closeness between the students and teachers, who all "knew one another, not casually, but intimately."
H.E.T. Haultain—a freshman in 1886 who later became a professor—remembers the school caretaker, "Prof." Graham, who made drafting boards and sold them to students. "It was custom for the students to give him a Christmas present," he writes, "and on one such occasion he was presented with a greased pig, which he was forced to pursue through the building for some time, much to the amusement of onlookers."
For G.E. Silvester ('91), Halloween was an eventful night in the college year, when students would head to the theatre or take part in a "monster parade". "The women's residences were serenaded," he recounts, "and the Toronto police force, which at the time was very inadequate, was given a rough evening." Silvester recalls the stunts students would pull, like unharnessing horses from their carriages and chasing them away, or painting "unruly" freshmen with ink. He also remembers the boarding houses for students on McCaul, Church, and Henry Streets which charged $3 a week on average, as well as dining at the only students' restaurant near College and Spadina.
T.R. Deacon ('91) remembers the boxing matches held every Friday evening underneath the Engineering Supply Room. "The whole school practically used to assemble," he writes, "standing on benches around the wall, and watch us go to it until one went down." The bonds between classmates were strong in those days: "…there existed a great spirit of camaraderie and one could borrow anything from a pipeful of tobacco to a dress shirt if anybody in the class had one."
If there is one common thread running through each student's experience, it is the love and adoration for Prof. Galbraith, or "Johnnie" as he was more fondly known. For T. Kennard Thomson ('86), Galbraith was "far and away the most outstanding feature of the Red School House." E.W. Stern ('84) writes that beyond his outstanding technical qualifications, Galbraith was a kind and sympathetic man who took interest in each one of his students. "We, his old pupils, are his lifelong friends," Stern says, "We owe him a debt which can never be repaid."
An Ever-Evolving School
When the 1880s and 90s rolled around, Toronto was an expanding city in the throes of industrialization. Gas lamps were swapped out for electric lights; telephone poles sprouted along sidewalks; muddy streets were paved over with asphalt; and new buildings came up—among them, the Ontario Legislative Building in Queen's Park.
The School of Practical Science underwent many of its own changes during the decades, including: the introduction of a degree program for Civil Engineering; the establishment of the Engineering Society; the creation of separate departments for Mechanical and Mining Engineering; and the addition of an optional fourth year to give students more time to perform hands-on laboratory work. The popularity of the School grew so rapidly with each passing year, that by the 1887-88 session, full-time enrollment had surpassed 50 students. But it soon became clear that the School was bursting at the seams by almost every measure.
In an 1887 sessional report submitted to the Minister of Education, Daniel Wilson (who was President of the University at the time) expressed deep concern at the growing lack of resources.
"With only one Professor of Engineering and a graduate assistant," Wilson wrote, "it was found utterly impossible to institute complete systematic courses in Civil and Mechanical engineering and their subdivisions." The burden on Galbraith was in fact far too great: by the 1883-84 session he was delivering lectures for a total of 14 engineering courses by himself, in addition to providing practical instruction in surveying and drafting.
The small size of the building was an urgent issue as well. Lectures had to be delivered in the drafting room for lack of space, "much to the inconvenience of other students engaged in drawing." Without a proper meeting room, the Engineering Society was forced to store a large number of their periodicals in Prof. Galbraith's office. And on top of being overcrowded, the building was neither properly ventilated nor well-lit; sanitation was poor; and an inadequate heating system caused water pipes to burst in the winter and flood rooms.
Additional lecturers were eventually hired to ease the burden on Galbraith, and the teaching staff grew steadily over the coming years. To remedy the lack of space, a large extension of the building which tripled the School's area was completed in 1890. Engineering laboratories and testing facilities were also added to allow students to have experimental training with equipment like pumps, tanks, and turbines. The extension undoubtedly marked a turning point for the school. Local press became interested in the practical tests conducted at the labs on the quality of Canadian building materials, and it was not long before the Ontario government was finally satisfied that the School had been a good investment.
Throughout the 1890s and early 1900s Galbraith continued to work tirelessly to expand the School—pushing for the hiring of more staff and the installation of more equipment for the laboratories. As full-time enrollment surpassed 200 at the turn of the century and the issue of space was back on the front-burner, Galbraith concluded that the only solution would be a new building. The School submitted a student-signed petition to the Lieutenant Governor, which eventually led to the construction of the Mining Building. However, it would hardly be an end to the School's accommodation woes: enrolment jumped to 475 by the time the building was completed in 1904, so it opened at capacity.
The conclusion of the 1905-06 session marked the end of the School of Practical Science. After 28 years in operation, it was finally incorporated into the University of Toronto as the Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering. Galbraith became the Faculty's first Dean, and remained devoted to his students until his death in the summer of 1914, aged 67. The "Little Red Schoolhouse" would be demolished in 1966 to make way for the Medical Sciences Building, but its legacy still reverberates to the present day.
To see how far our Faculty has come is both inspiring and humbling—from a small brick-building with seven students, to a world-renowned institution with nearly 8,000. And just as no one in 1878 could have imagined where we'd be now, there is no telling where we'll be in 140 years. As the saying goes, you can never fully appreciate where you're going until you know where you've come from.

That was the fastest week ever. And it's already the wee hours of Saturday. I guess time really does fly when you are having fun.
Last Friday David and I packed the boys up and headed out for a long weekend at Canyon Lake. We had a blast. There was lots of putt putt golf, board games, and all kinds of fun. The weather was pretty dreary but we still enjoyed every minute of it Driving back to the craziness of the city was a little depressing. Don't get me wrong, I've finally come to love San Antonio but God how I love open spaces, peace and quiet.
We also visited the zoo. The boys were super excited to ride the new carousel. I'm pretty sure we will be making a few more trips because they are insisting on riding every animal. And ofcourse I got to see my snakes. How can I be so afraid yet so fascinated by them? We also got a little carried away with cotton candy and popcorn. Poor Alexander, his stomach just couldn't handle it and was up all night sick to his stomach. I was worried it was the flu but he is back to himself again. But it's David now who is down for the count. Lysol has been sprayed, bedding washed and we are stocked up on OJ.
I missed my happiness is post so I will catch up next week. I am going to do one last check on all my boys and then it's lights out for me. I'm beyond exhausted. I'd do it all over again still! Have a fun and safe weekend!

TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE: Mark your calendar. On Saturday, Dec. 10th, the full Moon will glide through the coppery shadow of Earth, producing a total lunar eclipse visible from the Pacific side of our planet. For residents of the western USA and Canada, the event unfolds at dawn and will be magnified to super-sized proportions by the Moon illusion. [Science@NASA: full story, video]
QUIET SUN: The face of the sun is peppered with spots, but none of them is actively producing flares. Since yesterday, the sun's X-ray output has flatlined:
Despite the quiet, there is potential for Earth-directed eruptions. Sunspots 1362 and 1363 have "beta-gamma" magnetic fields that harbor energy for M-class solar flares. NOAA forecasters estimate a 20% chance of M-flares during the next 24 hours. Solar flare alerts: text, phone.
THE MOON AND JUPITER: Last night's close encounter between Jupiter and the Moon was a knockout. Literally:
"This is what happened when a friend and I went out to watch the conjunction," says photographer Göran Strand of Frösön, Sweden. "It was a clear and cold night and, fortunately, we found a very nice spot to hit the ground south of Östersund."
In case you missed the conjunction, you won't have to wait long for it to happen again. The Moon will spend the next few weeks circling the sky, returning for another meet-up with Jupiter on Jan. 2, 2012. The New Year begins with a knock-out sky show. SpaceWeather Phone (text, voice) subscribers will receive a reminder when the time comes.

In Montana, Girl Scouts dressed in green, hiked up the Mount Sentinel trail Friday to commemorate the organization's 100th birthday.
The Missoulian reports that the "Eclipse of the 'M,' " took place as Girl Scouts in green shirts sat on the 'M' and laid out green tarps to create an eclipse effect on the white surface before the weekend's "Journey Through Girl-Scouting Camp Out."
The campout was a two-night stay at Fort Missoula with more than 250 Girl Scouts from Montana and Wyoming as part of an ongoing celebration of the organization's 100th anniversary.
Helena Troop Leader Tolly Patten explained the history-based trips while standing next to a Helena pickup truck overflowing with pink and purple luggage at the base of Mount Sentinel.
Girl Scouts of Montana and Wyoming started their 100th birthday activities in Helena in November. The theme of that trip was the early 1900s, so girls spent the days learning to spin wool and churn butter. In January, they headed to Casper, Wyo., for a Depression era-themed trip. Then in April, the scouts made tie-dyed T-shirts and listened to rock n' roll in Cody as part of the 1950s-'70s theme. The trip to Missoula this weekend will focus on the late 1900s, and contributions to science during that time. In August, they head to Cheyenne for a weekend of modern technology. "It's going to be a haul to Cheyenne, don't get me wrong," Patten said amidst the carfuls of girls she came to Missoula with.
Membership manager for southwestern Montana Dawn McCloney was helping organize the hike up Sentinel. McCloney said the greening-out of the 'M' was part of the Girl Scouts' effort to go green. "Girl Scouts are going green," McCloney said. "We have a huge initiative nationwide to go green." While the Scouts hiked, they picked up trash along the way.

Viva Bandolera
Bandolera Records
Patricia Vonne's emotive Latin folk and rock music takes on new heights with soaring vocals, multi-instrumental repertoires, and a pop-edge cement the deal with Viva Bandolera. Patricia's vocals are a blend of Lila Downs and Shakira throughout. The song structures are more varied than Shakira, but rooted in the Tejano, Latin-American rock and folk of Mexico's Lila Downs. Seventeen tracks in all. Patricia brings more than basic Tex-Mex fanfare here. In fact, there are swirling melodies and rhythms with passionate and evocative vocals representing a deep, Latin-American connection, as well as American pop and rock constructions. The Spanish songs are back by great instrumentation and arrangements that do not disappoint. Get it today! ~ Matthew Forss

We are in awe of the Andaman sea. It is like a giant hug: warm, wide, and welcoming.
The beach is broad, light yellow sand and clean, making it perfect for long walks. The surface is pockmarked with crab holes, and other sealife… making for an endless fascination.
The water temperature is perfect; warm enough and cold enough for a good swim or lull in water. It is shallow for a few meters making it a relaxing swim.
For 3 days every evening rain clouds gathered and it poured… watching the sea and sky change, listening to the rain from the safety of the sheltered swings on our beach is priceless.
The Andaman sea rises advances every morning. As the afternoon rolls it starts slowly retracting. Love watching it and getting dizzy… we realized we have even forgotten what day it is!! This is the gift of Andaman sea.

12 January 2016
Follow up statement issued 13 January 2016:
"We planned ahead to make sure we were ready for yesterday's industrial action, and that planning paid off because our hospitals ran smoothly on the day.
"Unfortunately we had to cancel 20 operations and 171 outpatient appointments, and I apologise to all of the patients who were affected. Those patients are now at the top of the priority list to be rescheduled and we will see them as quickly as possible. We aim to book cancelled operations back in within 28 days, and many have already been rescheduled.
"I'd like to thank our staff and patients for their continued support."
The NHS is working hard to ensure that as few patients as possible are affected by the industrial action planned for the 12, 26 & 27 January and 10 February 2016, but some services will need to change.
It is especially important if you have a long-term health condition or you look after people in vulnerable groups – such as the elderly and young children – that you know what to do on the days of the industrial action.
If you have a planned operation/procedure or outpatient appointment on a day when industrial action is taking place, your hospital will contact you if it needs to be rearranged. If you have not been contacted by the hospital you should first check their website for additional advice. If you are still unsure then contact the hospital direct.
Your GP practice will be open and working as normal on the days of the industrial action. Given that GPs may experience greater demand than normal over this period, we strongly recommend that you contact them early if you need advice or an appointment.
If you need emergency care, Accident and Emergency departments will be open for patients with serious and lifethreatening conditions. As is always the case to ensure that hospitals can treat those who most need it, only those patients with serious and life threatening conditions should visit their A&E.
If you become ill over this period with a non-urgent condition and need advice, please visit www.nhs.uk, or go to your local pharmacist. For more serious conditions you should continue to contact your GP as usual, or call 111.
If you have regular medication please make sure you have collected your prescription from your GP and have been to the pharmacist to collect it, and have it to hand.

I've known Neil for many years. We recorded at a wonderful studio, high in the Brecon Beacons.
After a good walk each morning we'd start work on the tunes.
Neil's musical approach is electronic and groove based, with his often dark and oftentimes surreal lyrics over the top.
He likes me to lock in with the machinery. I enjoy the discipline of it; minimalist groove guitarring.
The couple of shows we're doing will be fun.

All songs Neil Arthur except
'I Want More': Holger Czukay, Peter Gilmour, Michael Karoli, Jaki Liebezeit, Irmin Schmidt
Blancmange bring their bitter-sweet electronic songs to Cherry Red Records with their new album, Semi Detached which will be available on four formats – CD, Ltd Edition Deluxe Double CD, Vinyl LP and digital download. Due out on 23 March 2015, the tracks are shot through with lyrics inspired by Neil Arthur's instinct for surreal juxtapositions and abstract wordplay.
The eight minute opener 'The Fall' sets the tone with its imaginative mix of the London tube map, The Fall (the band), Heaven and Hell, suicide, ghostly (inner) reflection and rain-soaked romantic imagery. The synthesizer melody is lightly done but the narrative is one of broken hearts, tragedy... and The Fall: 'I went to see them many times,' says Arthur. 'I sent Mark E Smith our first EP and we exchanged a few letters, his being ones of humorous encouragement.'
'I Want More' is a cover of Can's only 'pop hit' from their 1976 album Flow Motion. The repetitive refrain of the title initially comes across as joyous, the soaring melody and rousing chorus of voices conveying a celebratory hedonism, but the song takes on a more foreboding edge against the backdrop of 21st century excess and its darker implications: 'Don't care if I break the law/I want more and more and more . . . '
'Paddington', which is scheduled to be the first single off the album on 9 March 2015, celebrates London through a blur of evocative, fragmented images – a random memory recall of life in the city. Meanwhile, the coiled, moody electronica of 'It Didn't Take Long' with the ice-in-veins kiss-off of 'I'm not sorry I hurt you', is followed by the gleeful artificial power of the synthesizers on the instrumental, 'MKS Lover'.
'Like I Do' is gripped by a propulsive rhythm and staccato phrasing, mapping out a cross-roads moment in someone's life. Will they recognise it? Can they tell up from down; real from fake? 'Deep In The Mine' is at the core of the album. 'I imagined a cavernous and yet claustrophobic space with endless passages running off it,' says Arthur. The soul-mining lyric is delivered with a roughened-up, husky richness by the singer that reveals new depths to his voice.
The tart 'Acid' is what happens when wit turns to bitterness, while the playful 'Useless' is the most openly 'pop' song on the album – a whirling, giddy four minutes built around the sweet and pithy lyric, 'everybody loves you/useless as you are.'
The album, which is mixed by Adam Fuest, closes with one of the best – and darkest – songs Arthur has written so far, 'Bloody Hell Fire'. Featuring some wonderfully atmospheric guitars, his own playing is layered with that of David Rhodes (Kate Bush, Peter Gabriel), who adds inventive guitar to many of the tracks on the album. 'Bloody Hell Fire' conveys a sense of world-weary detachment ('I don't know if I exist') through another striking vocal by Neil Arthur. For all its bruised, existential self-pity, this track is sung with haunted passion and arguably creates a moment of raw beauty which has been rare so far in the nervy energy of Blancmange's catalogue.
Semi Detached is Blancmange's 5th album to date, but the first without the involvement of Stephen Luscombe, Neils long term collaborator. While retaining Blancmange's characteristic humour, with this new album Arthur has moved on from some of the old tics and mannerisms to create an edgy, pared down and deeply personal record, getting the balance absolutely right between grit and light, the domestic and the cosmic, despair and joy.
The new Blancmange album, Semi Detached has been receiving some great reviews in the UK press. Here's a selection:
'Instantly memorable melodies. Wonderful pop songs. Music Pop Art has seldom been as good.' ****
'Confirms Blancmange's capacity to astonish.' ****
'Semi Detached is a journey downwards, both through the earth and through a psyche. This is an album of subterranean spaces, dark caverns hollowed out beneath the surface... Its depths will have you thinking about it for days. There's just so much here.'
'Still catchy, still infectious but now all grown up. The journey will no doubt continue, but for the moment this could be their finest album to date.' 9/10
'Arthur's emotional vocals reflect intense personal words, meshing the melodic moody music magnificently.' 9/10
'Stephen Luscombe had bowed out, leaving singer Neil Arthur in sole charge. Thankfully, his are capable hands: still in strong voice, his spare, pop-savvy synth tracks are a fitting canvas for his absurdist narratives.' ***
'Blancmange have seldom been hipper.' ***
'You won't go far wrong with giving this latest collection a chance.' ***
Blancmange's journey from '80s synth pop hitmakers to a reunited concern in the 2010s had been riddled with problems, most of them due to member Stephen Luscombe's abdominal aneurysm, which at this point has sent him home. As such, Semi Detached is essentially a Neil Arthur solo album with some help from frequent collaborator David Rhodes, but more than anything, it is a very, very dark Blancmange album when compared to all the others, and quite emotionally heavy as well. Opener "The Fall" is an eight-minute trudge with Arthur simmering throughout and primal screaming by the end, while "Useless" offers "Everybody love you, as useless as you are" with plenty of venom and little mirth. Hard to believe it is all coming from the band that chuckled through its heyday with hits like "Blind Vision" and "Living on the Ceiling," but Semi Detached is sincere in its distrust, distaste, and ire, and by the time "Bloody Hell Fire" underlines it all as a dour closer, the album winds up a worthy companion for bad days or chucking it all. Check "Paddington" for a hint of the old, bubbly magic, or "I Want More" for a quirky, unexpected cover of Krautrock legends Can.

Despite being one of the oldest strategies to get more traffic on the website, SEO has not lost its charm. What has changed is the process of optimising a website to rank it higher on Google. New algorithm updates have almost eliminated black hat SEO techniques at various steps, making it difficult for webmasters to maintain their website position. Google in its efforts to make search more user-friendly is paying special attention to search keywords. As a result, it has become imperative for SEOs to focus on long-tail keywords. These make around 70 percent of search traffic. Let's dive deeper into the topic to find out the ways to shortlist long-tail keywords that work for you.
What Are Long-tail Keywords?
Long-tail keywords have a higher conversion rate as they have low volume and are less competitive search terms. Since a majority of online searches are long-tail, search engine optimisers cannot skip long-tail keywords.
How to Find Long-tail Keywords that Actually Get Results?
Google Suggestions
Why not use Google to get answers? The autosuggest feature can help you find out long-tail keywords. For instance, if you type "hire a plumber", a list of less popular search terms such as "hire a plumber for house", or "hire a plumber for pipe leaks" will appear.
You can also check out the related search section that is present towards the end on the result page. It has a bundle of other suggested keywords that can be relevant to your product or service offerings.
Audience Questions
Google is focusing on user ensuring that they get as accurate results as possible for a search. This is the reason why SEO company India and across the world are leaving the traditional keyword approach behind and paying more attention to creating content with information that users are looking for. When deciding long-tail keywords, always think from a searcher's perspective. Make a list of questions that a user might ask Google when searching for a product or service that your business also caters to. For instance, if you are into the business of providing interior decoration services, you can add long-tail keywords such as interior decoration services near me, home decor services cost, and more.
Forums are one place where you will find lots of real user questions and this will help you get an idea of the search terms or topics that people usually look for on Google.
Google Tools
The last but the most important tip is to use Google Tools. These free tools such as Keyword Planner and Google Analytics can be of tremendous help with long-tail keywords search and analysis. The advantage of using Google tools is that they don't cost anything, are always available, in sync with your webmasters account, and remove the guesswork because of the real-time data available.
Wrap Up
Long-tail keywords are easier to rank, have high search demand and generate qualified traffic. It makes a lot of sense to optimize your website for these keywords and attain growth goals faster.

The latest article from the Journal of Late Antique Religion and Culture (JLARC), entitled "Knowledge and specialised trades in the late antique West: medicine vs engineering", was published on 8th January. Its authors Javier Martínez and Patricia González compare and contrast the trades of medicine and engineering in the Roman world, and provide a theory as to why the Romans' medical skills were mostly passed on to later generations while their engineering skills were soon lost.
Read the whole article at: https://jlarc.cardiffuniversitypress.org/articles/abstract/10.18573/j.2017.10451/
The high degree of technical and scientific development accomplished in the Roman world is quite staggering. The construction of concrete vaults still standing today, and unsurpassed until the Modern period, is proof of their engineering skills. Similarly, Roman medics were capable of practising eye surgery and embryotomies on patients who survived such interventions. However, with the collapse of the Roman Empire in the West during the long fifth century and the emergence of Christianity, popular imagination sees these two sciences collapsing into the Dark Ages. While this is not absolutely true, it is not completely false either. In the Iberian and Gaulish examples we analyse in this paper, we want to put forward how engineering all but disappeared, while Roman medicine continued and was preserved through the Middle Ages and into modern times.
Complex techniques and specialised instruments, including vaulting and levelling, seem to have been lost in sixth- and seventh-century constructions. All new buildings are much simpler in design and techniques, even if built to large scale, because the problem was not the lack of skilled builders but the lack of trained engineers and architects who could do the necessary calculations. The specific example of aqueducts and their abandonment, and the way new churches were built, serve to illustrate this point. In medicine, however, there is a clear continuity of old Roman practices during late antiquity, partly promoted and protected by the Church. Only a few specific elements and tools seem to have been lost, while most generic and specialised sets of knowledge continued.
We propose that some of the reasons behind these diverting paths in the two sciences reside in the way these sets of specialised knowledge had been transmitted in the Roman world, underlining the weakness of Roman overspecialisation. Engineering was taught either through the army or through private apprenticeship systems, was limited almost entirely to men, and flourished during the periods of economic bonanza when large projects were carried out. The Roman elites would have a certain knowledge of construction and architecture basics as part of their cursus honorum, but this was never proper training – the engineer was not a socially privileged position. In this way, once the Empire collapsed, the army disbanded, and large building projects came to an end until the late sixth century. By then all chains of training in the West seem to have been terminally disrupted (as opposed to what happened in the Roman East). Medicine, on the other hand, was a very developed science, but it was not concentrated in a few hands. Army medics and surgeons existed, but they were not the only ones: municipal medics, trained slaves, herbalists, midwives, priests, even perfume makers, all shared fractions of the vast corpus of Roman medical science. It was accessible to men and women, and it was kept in high social esteem as well, so the transmission of medical knowledge was not as limited as engineering and not tied to the fate of the Empire.

Green Money Savers -- Durable Bottles
Every little bit counts in a strained household budget. This week's tips offer ways to go green while reducing costs.
Tip #3: Break the habit of buying bottled water on the go--even at the airport
Restrictions on liquids during air travel mean you have to buy bottled water, right? Wrong. You can still pack an empty bottle in your carry-on and fill it up at a water fountain after you've gone through security. As for everyday on-the-go hydration, you can save more than $1,000 a year if you equip your family with reusable bottles instead of relying on throwaway juice boxes and water bottles each day.
Share your tips: Have you stopped buying disposable drink containers? What do you use instead?

Don't Panic
|A safe disposal box for used needles and syringes.
"Don't panic," says Mikayla-Jay McGinley, WASUA's Hepatitis C Educator and Safe Disposal Worker. "You're able to dispose of the needle and syringe with minimal risk."
Do Something - Here's HowIf there isn't a safe disposal box nearby, the WA Department of Health offers clear instructions on how to safely dispose of needles and syringes.
"Needles and syringes should only be handled from the plunger end of the syringe and carefully placed in a rigid, plastic container that can be tightly sealed," says Mikayla-Jay. "Once sealed, you can then place the container into a domestic rubbish bin - not a recycling bin."
Contact WASUA
WASUA welcome calls about discarded needles and syringes because it helps them to learn more about people who could benefit from the information they offer.
"Most people who are using are up with information on blood-borne viruses and safer injecting habits," says Mikayla-Jay. "There are small pockets of users who may not have information about safer injecting and safe disposal, and we need to get information and resources out to those groups."
What Are The Risks?
According to the WA Department of Health, to date there hasn't been a documented case of a person contracting HIV, hepatitis B or hepatitis C from a needlestick injury that occurred in a community setting (such as a park or beach) in WA. The risk is considered to be very low.
While there is a minimal risk of infection from touching used needles and syringes, there may be people in the community - for example, children - who will not be aware of the risks or the distress that a needle stick injury could cause them or their family. Save someone else some stress and if you see a discarded needle or syringe, take care to dispose of it safely.
For people who inject drugs, it's important not to share any injecting equipment - not just needles and syringes - because the risk of blood-borne virus infection is higher.
Clean Needles & Syringes - Information on Safer InjectingIf you want to know where to go for clean needles and syringes, there are several options in metropolitan and regional WA.
The WA Substance Users' Association offers a needle and syringe exchange and other services in the Perth CBD. The WA AIDS Council also offers a mobile needle and syringe exchange in the Perth metropolitan area, while HepatitisWA also offer a needle and syringe program in Northbridge.
WASUA also offers needle and syringe exchange in the south west, while the South Metro Community Drug Service (Palmerston) operates an exchange in Mandurah and the Midwest Community Drug Service offers an exchange in Geraldton. A needle and syringe program is also available in the Great Southern through the Great Southern Community Alcohol and Drug Service (Palmerston). Check the Green Book Directory of Alcohol and other Drug and Mental Health Services in WA for contact details. Local hospitals, WA Health Population Health and chemists may also be able to help.

Korean NAFTA: You could be sued by UN tribunal
Like NAFTA, the Korea Free Trade Agreement grants foreign corporations extraordinary rights and empowers them to sue the U.S. in foreign tribunals and demand compensation for loss of expected profits. These outrageous rules allow unelected UN tribunals to overturn laws approved by the American people, and would even require U.S. taxpayers to pay damages. Over 250 foreign corporations with operations across the US would be given the power to sue you, the American taxpayer. See if one of them is near you. Korea Free Trade Agreement Threatens American Independence, Lets Foreign Companies & Courts Veto US Laws Like NAFTA, the Korea Free Trade Agreement, as it is currently written, grants foreign corporations extraordinary rights and protections and empowers them to sue the U.S. government in foreign trade tribunals if the government enacts laws or regulations that may interfere with the corporations' expected profits. These outrageous rules put the special interest of a few corporate entities on equal footing with our governments' public interest policies. If the pact were to go into effect, at least 79 Korea-based corporations with 270 establishments across the United States would obtain new rights to demand taxpayer compensation through challenges of U.S. federal, and state laws in foreign tribunals. There are also hundreds of the U.S. firms operating in Korea that could use the same system to attack Korean public interest laws. Foreign investors have used NAFTA's investor tribunals to attack health and environmental policy, zoning and permitting issues, toxics regulation, court rulings, and more. The Korea FTA even allows foreign corporations to skirt US courts and use foreign tribunals to privately enforce the pact's rules limiting financial regulation. So, even the new policies to bring stability back to the financial system could be under threat if the Korea FTA is passed without modification. Already, multinational corporations have won millions of dollars in taxpayer money by challenging a Canadian environmental ban of gasoline additive MMT (the Ethyl case) and a Mexican municipality's refusal to a grant construction permit for a toxic waste facility (the Metalclad case). In the Loewen vs. United States case, the NAFTA tribunal ruled that domestic court rulings in private contract disputes are subject to NAFTA investor-state claims, though the investor lost the case on procedural grounds due to its decision to reorganize as a U.S. corporation under bankruptcy protection. For a detailed account of how the Korea FTA endangers crucial public regulations, click here. Finally, even non-U.S. or Korean multinational companies will be able to access these extreme foreign investor rights under the U.S.-Korea FTA. That's right: companies from China, Europe and elsewhere could use a U.S. or Korean subsidiary to challenge Korean or U.S. laws! For instance, German companies like Siemens, Bayer, and BASF have operations in both the U.S. and Korea. By engaging in what corporate types call "nationality planning," these companies too can access these investor rights. Above is a map of the U.S. locations of multinational corporations that would gain new rights to sue the U.S. government under the Korea FTA. These corporations could challenge the local zoning and environmental laws of your community, so zoom in using the "+" button to see which corporations are in your city. Click on the dots to see the names of the corporations and their industry. Blue markers are corporations based in Korea and red markers are corporations based in third countries that have operations in both countries. The red lines on the map are the borders of the districts of the U.S. House of Representatives. Click here for a full list of companies based in Korea that operate in the United States. The Korea FTA's investor-state enforcement provisions also endanger Korea's public regulations. U.S. corporations have already used trade pacts to attack public interest laws in foreign countries, such as laws that regulate gold mining in El Salvador. Click on the dots to see which companies will gain new rights under the Korea FTA (blue markers are corporations based in the United States and red markers are corporations based in third countries that have operations in both countries).

Would you like to be "Totally Healthy?"
Seminar Program Outline
The Seven Principles and Personal Agreements for Health Success!
You will learn: The Principles and Personal Agreements that you must put your attention and focus on. These are principles and agreements you need to have with yourself in order for you to achieve the level of Health that you want. Principles that you also need in order for your relationships to work, for your job or career to work, for your life and everything in it to work.
Once these fundamental success principles and agreements are discovered, learned, adopted and used in your life, they will help you help yourself to a better Healthier way of life.
Attend this workshop, learn and use these principles and agreements, and I promise you Will:
®Improve your health…
®Feel better about yourself…
®Enjoy new health achievement…
®Improve your relationships…
®Feel a great sense of happiness…and much more
And I'm prepared to prove it. No, I am not talking about magic. I am talking about your untapped potential for unlimited success in every area of your life. You already have the potential I'm talking about…Everybody does. Unfortunately, most people never get to use it. For years, scientists have been telling us that we use less than 3% of our brain capacity.
The point that I want to make is this: Science has established that who you are, what you can do, what you can have and who you can become, is for the most part up to you more so than we have ever suspected in the past. Even in the area of physical health, it has been shown that your beliefs, attitudes and ideas can influence your body's resistance to viruses and diseases.
Your Body is Amazing, and Your Mind Controls it All!
What you must not be, however, is discouraged… One can't be, for that would be the equivalent of throwing in the towel… Instead, one must persist in pushing for that in which one positively believes. That's what you must intend to do, push, ask questions, dare to explore new approaches… demand to know why this, or that, can't be done. And, seek progress on your success by joining and co-operating with like-minded people. Strangely, and more importantly it is the total use of these principles and agreements that separates people who succeed and have power…from people who don't.
You Must Attend This Seminar.
HOW TO NEVER BE SICK AGAIN! You'll learn the important causes of all illnesses and diseases. You'll be surprise that you have almost complete control over causes such that you can discontinue, remove and avoid these causes.
You'll learn that "prevention" is a myth inasmuch as there is no way that the natural laws of cause and effect can be suspended or nullified. You'll also learn that sickness and disease are not inevitable and will NOT happen unless caused. You'll learn a whole NEW prospective on life that immediately liberates your mind, and starts you on your way to a natural health transformation.
Learn the specific causes of specific diseases and how, when these causes are stopped or avoided, your body automatically restores itself to vibrant, sickness-free health! In addition you'll receive a FREE graph outline illustration to help you chart your health progress.
THE REAL HEALTH FORMULA The enjoyment of bounding and vigorous illness-free well-being is just as normal and natural for humans as for animals in nature. Health care is totally self-care in nature and is, in reality, for humans too. If you don't take care of your life, you're out of control because:
No one else can breath for you, drink for you, select and eat food for you, keep comfortable for you, keep clean for you, sleep for you, exercise for you, get sunshine for you, be lovably and loving for you, nor meet any of your some 20 other essentials of life! This session will introduce you to the needs of life, which you must meet to live happily and healthfully.
THE INCREDIBLE DIET! You'll be introduced to a "diet that prevents all diseases" simply because it does not cause problems as most foods eaten in America do. Further, this diet is the basis for overcoming all remedial diseases and most are easily overcome. And, by eating this diet, you'll say good-by forever to heart burn, upset stomach, indigestion, belly aches, headaches in short, all sicknesses and diseases. And… Learn what we have discovered about the role of diet, nutrition and exercise in cancer prevention remission and or recurrence.
HOW TO LOSE WEIGHT RAPIDLY, SAFELY AND PERMANENTLY Would you like to lose 5 + pounds in 48 hours!? How about losing 30 pounds in just 30 days! If you're overweight (and 71% of Americans over 25 are), you can lose weight rapidly, safely and permanently merely by adopting "the incredible diet ." You'll learn why we gain weight and how to naturally lose weight. No matter how many calories you eat from the incredible diet, you'll lose weight. When you begin your eating and life program (the health formula), your weight will normalize around its natural set points.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS You are invited to ask questions, especially where you need clarifications for better understanding. If you think we are wrong, speak up! Ask questions! What we teach, while supported by facts and common sense, is quite contrary to the propaganda and confusion we've been saturated with by TV, radio, newspapers, indoctrination institutions called schools and colleges, etc. It is all simply "Fake News".

How does the Galant Group Health Seminar Differ From Other Healing arts?
The question bears the very essence of misconception relating to healing. There is no such thing as a healing art. All healing is resident in the living organism. Nothing other than the healthful conditions that are biologically required are favorable to the healing process.
All "remedies" can only succeed in interfering with healing. Organisms heal despite the multitude of "therapies" administered. The treatments used get credit for cure when, in fact, they did not help at all or even slowed down the healing process.
Over 90% of Americans are burdened with one or more chronic ailments, an attest to the so-called "effectiveness" of our "healing arts." Our position is that health is normal and natural and will be present if healthful living practices are observed.
Disease and suffering are abnormal, unnatural, and unnecessary. Disease must be caused and does not happen as a matter of course, chance, or bad luck. Bacteria, germs, or viruses do not cause disease! Rather, it is caused by incorrect habits of living and disobeying the Laws of Life.
Our "Total Health Seminar" will be a guide to the elimination of the causes of disease and to healthful Living practices. These steps return all to the highest possible level of health.
Health does not consist merely of the absence of symptoms or illness. It is a state of positive well-being that is evidenced by a constant state of "euphoria" that is rarely, if ever, experienced by humans today.
We could well divide the people we meet into the following categories.
1) People who are definitely sick.
2) People who are on the borderline of sickness.
3) People who are apparently healthy.
4) People who enjoy "high-level health."
The first three groups constitute the vast majority of our population.
There is only one way to do things: the right way. In health the right way is nature's way. "Mother Nature" long since solved the problems of human development. This means that health and wonderful well-being are normal, that is, natural.
The problem with humans is not one with nature but with ourselves. We are incapable of seeing the simplicity of nature and how entirely easy it is to be in great health all the time—uneducated animals in nature's fields and forest do it naturally. Miseducated humans are worse in this respect than the untutored who do things naturally. "It is better to be ignorant than to know so much that isn't so."
The only way is the correct way—nature's way. That is what "truth in Health" and the "Total Health Seminar" is all about—a true science of life based squarely upon our anatomical, physiological & biological heritage.
SEMINAR LEADER Dr. Laurence Galant is a Board Certified Medical Clinical Hypnotherapist, Practitioner of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) with a doctored degree in Health and Nutritional Science and a lifetime member of the International Association of Counselors and Therapists (IACT), The National Association of Certified Hypnotherapist and The National Council for Medical and Clinical Hypnotherapy (NCMCH).

You will learn techniques that will help you to tap and use the other 95% of your mind. So easy, so safe, so simple its like pushing buttons. Because the healing power of the mind over the body is limitless. "We believe that "Success in anything, is a Strategy anyone can learn."
Dr Laurence Galant:
I would like to take this opportunity to express the importance of Health as a daily affair and also give you the following statement which comes from one of Dr. Denis Waitly program. He said, and I quote:
"Let me ask you this…
How is your body these days Are you fat and sluggish?
Are you gaunt and nervous?
Do you puff going up a flight of stairs?
What kind of fuel do you put into your magnificent machine, your one and only transportation vehicle?
Is it full of smoke?
Are your brain and liver pickled in alcohol?
Do you fuel it up with high-test meals, or do you use low octane burgers, tacos and empty calories junk food?
Is your body a Ferrari that you tune and twig for the Grand Prix or the Lemans, or is it a clunk parked by the curb to get you from birth to death any old which way?
Well, if you abuse it, you won't get to use it as long."
We have all make our share of mistakes during our lifetime. Myself included. 0ften, we have had to pay dearly for them, so now you want to be especially careful when it comes to your life and heath because it's you who will have to suffer and pay the price for any oversight or mistake you make. It is the you of the future who will suffer or benefit from your present actions.
Many people have not kept their health up to date for whatever reason (or excuse). It is not because this person did not want, he/she simply neglected to learn more about alternative heath, so, that he/she can be in charge and take control of his her heath.
"It's true, we feel best when we know that we're in control of our lives." And not when someone else is controlling our lives or our heath.
If you choose to follow a Health and Nutrition program such ours, it is definitely not a one‑short arrangement. You must follow it for an extended period of time in order to reap its benefits. Some of he results such as improvement in hair and nails, will become apparent in just a few weeks. An increase in vitality and internal health usually takes a bit longer to manifest themselves. Rest assure, all the benefits that accrue to one who follows a program of planned health and nutrition such as ours will be realized in tine. You will see and feel the difference. Take charge of your life and health now! All you need to do is listen to our tape, read this publication and order the products of your choice. It's that easy. Do It Now! As always "The Choice Is Your." And choice is the problem and the solution.
