Margin Poles
Welcome to our Margin Pole page.
Here at Gerry's we offer a great selection of Margin Poles from all the leading suppliers, such as Preston Innovations, Daiwa, Frenzee and many more.
Drennan Acolyte Pro Margin Carp Pole 9.5mtr
Available to order 5-10 day delivery
Drennan Acolyte Pro Margin Carp Pole 9.5mtr The Acolyte Margin Carp 9.5 is slim, stiff, lightweight, super strong and more than a match for commercial fishery carp! The Acolyte Margin Carp is built on the same mandrel as the award-winning Acolyte Carp pole, but is even stronger. That means the top kits and sections three to seven can potentially interchange between these two poles, making it a great complimentary pole or backup pole at a significantly reduced cost. This is easily Drennan's best ever short-range carp pole and more than a match for margin-feeding carp! True Length This seven-section pole complete with reversible mini extension is 9.5m straight from the bag and needs no cutting back to accept the largest 5.4mm Super Slick internal PTFE bushes. It is ideal when used in conjunction with thick, hollow elastic such as pink 14-16 and red 18-20 Carp Bungee. Top Kits The special Margin Kits supplied measure 2.33m and are designed to be shorter than the 2.89m kits supplied with the Acolyte and Acolyte Carp poles, as Drennan believe it is the optimum length for more demanding, close-range work. Having a shorter length of elastic offers you much more control over a big fish, which can be really important when tackling snaggy swims. One of the Margin Kits also comes with a special Ghost Tip as part of the standard package. These tips have been specially treated with a light grey paint finish. This has been designed for ultra wary fish that could potentially be spooked by a carbon pole tip waving over their heads. As this special finish only adds approximately 2g of extra weight to the section, the balance and performance of the pole is not compromised. The standard package comes with a total of two Margin Kits and one Ghost Margin Kit but, as with all Drennan poles, you can tailor this to your own requirements. Each kit comes with factory-fitted Side Pull Slots as standard and is also supplied with Roller Cones for unrivalled, super-smooth elastic performance. Extras The pole comes with plenty of extras, including two Skid Bungs, six 5.4mm Super Slick PTFE Bushes, six intermediate PTFE Bushes, three Roller Cones, an extractor rod, nine Side Pull Beads, an EVA nose cone for the No3 section, a Cupping Kit Adapter and a Polemaster Pole Pot. A 6.4mm Cupping Kit Adaptor thread is supplied should you wish to convert one of the tips to a cupping kit. This will ensure both your top kits and cupping kit are the same length for accurate potting. The Package: 9.5mtr Pole Mini Extension 2x Margin Kit 1x Extra Ghost Margin Kit 2x Skid Bungs 6x PTFE Bushes 6x Intermediate PTFE Bushes 3x Roller Cones 9x Side Pull Beads EVA Nose Cone Extractor Rod Cupping Kit Adaptor Polemaster Pole Pot Wipe-clean Nylon Bag

Preston Innovations Edge Monster 10mtr Margin Pole
Available to order 5-10 day delivery
Preston Innovations Edge Monster 10mtr Margin Pole (Due mid March 2020) After the huge success of the Edge Monster Margin Pulla 8.5mtr pole, Preston Innovations have one step further. Introducing the Edge Monster 10mtr Margin Pole, complete with a mini extension. The pole is constructed from quality carbon fibre and is strong enough to extract large carp from the margins while having the balance to fish at its full length for carp and F1's where the extra 10m length can really help to reach those areas that are usually out of range for a conventional margin pole. The pole includes a spare power top 2 kit in addition to the one supplied in the pole, both of which are virtually ready to fish with a Roller Pulla Bush and a PTFE bush already fitted (just add elastic). The complete package is supplied in PVC tubes for safe transit. Package: 1x 10m Edge Monster Margin Pole (inc mini extention) 1x Spare Roller Pulla Power top 2 kit 1x Pole Holdall with tubes
Preston Innovations Edge Monster Margin Pulla 8.5mtr Pole
Available to order 5-10 day delivery
Preston Innovations Edge Monster Margin Pulla 8.5mtr Pole The EDGE MONSTER is a super strong durable 8.5m margin pole which has been developed to cope with those large edge dwellers that inhabit many commercial fishery's. Features: 8.5mtr pole with Roller Pulla Top 2 included 1x spare Roller Pulla top 2 Comes supplied in holdall
Preston Innovations Response Margin Pole 8.5mtr
Available to order 5-10 day delivery
Preston Innovations Response Margin Pole 8.5mtr The Response Margin 8.5M is the highest grade margin pole Preston Innovations have ever produced and fits in with their incredibly popular Response name! This Margin pole is very stiff, strong and ultra responsive, the Response Margin can be fished at its full 8.5M length with confidence and ease. The Response Margin pole top kits are fully interchangeable with the other poles in the Response range, which not only makes it an ideal option for those snaggy swims but doubles up as a second pole for all your short pole fishing and general margin fishing which often demands a very strong and rigorous pole. The optimum 2.4m length Power Kits are rated to a 20 elastic and come pre-bushed with the premium Internal PTFE bushes, as well as the popular and extremely useful Roller Pulla bushes. The Response Margin pole comes supplied with 2 spare Power Kits (1 included in the pole), so a total of 3 Power Kits, along with a Holdall and protective tubes for ultimate protection.

Pivotal role of co-inhibitory molecules in immune tolerance
- Author / Creator
- Thangavelu, Govindarajan
The main function of co-inhibitory molecules is to regulate T cell immune responses by providing negative signals to those cells. Homeostatic activation of T cells occurs in both natural and artificially induced states of lymphopenia. Although lymphopenia leads to homeostatic proliferation of T cells, it does not always lead to autoimmunity, suggesting that control mechanisms may exist. Controlling these mechanisms may be particularly important during the period when the first T cells are exported from the thymus, as many recent thymic emigrants (RTE) have not yet had the opportunity to undergo peripheral tolerance. In chapters 2 and 3, I tested whether the major function of the co-inhibitory receptors such as programmed death-1 (PD-1) and B and T cell attenuator (BTLA) is to control autoimmunity induced by homeostatic activation, and also to assess their importance in RTE vs. established peripheral T cells. Interestingly, I found that their function is more critical only in newly generated T cells but not in mature T cells as PD-1-/- or BTLA -/- RTE induced a lethal multi-organ inflammatory disease in lymphopenic recipients. The disease induced by lymphopenia induced proliferation (LIP) was inhibited by reducing lymphoid space and also by providing polyclonal T cells as competitors for the pathogenic T cells. In chapter 4, I examined whether co-inhibitory molecules play a critical role in the "spontaneous" allograft tolerance of male islets. Among those tested, only PD-1 has a role in spontaneous acceptance of male islet allografts. While T cells have been observed to induce bystander killing of uninfected cells at the vicinity of the infected cells during viral infections in vitro, very little is known about the existence of bystander killing in vivo and also the mechanisms that limit this type of killing. In chapter 5, I investigated the capacity for bystander killing of islet cells in vivo and observed that PD-1, but not BTLA, can limit bystander killing. Overall, my studies have divulged the critical roles of co-inhibitory molecules in the maintenance of self-tolerance and these research findings will provide critical insights in the development of novel therapies to combat autoimmunity and rejection of transplants.

LORD Montagu's sister Mary Montagu-Scott will be giving guided tours of her mother's exhibition as part of Beaulieu's new line-up for groups in 2020.
Mary will give family insight with a tour of her mother's vibrant creations including painting, needlework, costumes and home furnishings in The Art of Belinda, Lady Montagu – her story in stitches exhibition, which recently opened in her ancestral family home of Palace House at the New Forest attraction.
Groups can take a personal look at the drawings and paintings from her years as a working artist, bold fancy dress party costumes and accessories, designs which take inspiration from the circus and nature, as well as huge wall hangings which tell the story of Beaulieu Abbey.
Another unmissable artistic highlight for visitors in 2020 is the recently opened Art Russe Gallery at the Clock House. The newly restored historic Clock House building has become home to the first dedicated Soviet Russian art gallery in the UK and shows an impressive collection of 20th century Russian art to an international audience.
In the National Motor Museum, a new-for-2020 specialist tour will take a trip back in time with Women in Motor Sport & Social History. Telling the rarely-told story of women in motor sport, the tour will span over 100 years from the 1880s with tales about early adventures, competitive zest for speed and extraordinary motoring fashions.
The popular Chief Engineer's Tour with Museum Manager and Chief Engineer Doug Hill will continue to be part of the line-up, along with For Britain & For The Hell Of It featuring iconic Land Speed Record breakers, Road, Race & Rally and The Motorcycle Story.
Always a favourite with groups is the Falconry tour, with a chance to meet Lord Montagu's official falconer and to visit his Abbot's Mews exhibition. The remarkable history of falconry at Beaulieu can be traced back as far back as the 11th century and the tour includes a live demonstration of the birds of prey in flight in the grounds of Beaulieu Abbey.
In Palace House, The Victorian Kitchen tour offers tales from cook Mrs Hale about the long hours and hard work in Victorian kitchens and their importance in a country household.
There are over 800 years of history on the Beaulieu Estate in the heart of the New Forest National Park and expert guides are eager to share their passion for heritage.

In March, the Chamber hosted our annual Circle of Excellence Awards program at Best Buy Headquarters. Arc's Value Village and Thrift Store was honored as the Non-profit of the Year for the great work they do in our community. Did you know, Arc's Value Village is the Twin Cities best thrift store. Their goal is a great shopping experience. Every day when they open their doors, they give back. For more than 30 years, thanks to shoppers, donors and volunteers, Arc's Value Village has helped make life better for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families. Last year, Arc stores generated more than $2 million for The Arc Greater Twin Cities programs that help adults and children with disabilities and our community.
As a Chamber community, we want to show our support for Arc's Value Village as well. At any Chamber meeting through the end of the year, please feel free to bring your gently used donations for Arc. We will take care of getting them to Arc's Value Village for you. In November, we will host a Chamber day of service to volunteer our time to helping in the store. We encourage each member to use that day to volunteer for an hour with their co-workers to show your support.
We would also like to take a moment to say thank you to Richfield's Red White and Blue Days team for organizing another great 4th of July festival! It takes a caring and committed group of community members to make sure the festival is a success and they pull it off with an abundance of cheers every year! Visit their Facebook page to re-visit all the fun!

Hologram USA is showing its support to those Americans who are protesting to make their voices heard by their government by backing up-and-coming singer-songwriter, JP Vance. The 15-year-old musician has recently released an Independence Day anthem called 'This is America,' in an effort to bring everyone together. The song is receiving attention for Vance's dedication to bring all citizens together, no matter what ideological differences divide them.
Of the song, Vance. said he wants it to help "start a revolution of appreciation for our country. America is the greatest country in the world and if we can focus on that and be united we can do anything."
'This is America' is being distributed on MondoTunes, which is part-owned by Hologram USA. The single has received an accompanying video that's asking all Americans to unite.
Vance, who has had a successful music career in Beijing, has been so determined in his efforts to unite his fellow Americans that he's being backed by Alki David, the owner and CEO of Hologram USA. The businessman is confident that the musician can lead Americans in their fight to hold their government responsible for its actions.
"JP is an extraordinarily talented singer, with an earnest message we all need to hear," said David. "He's perfectly poised to achieve the same stardom in the U.S. that he's achieved in China."

When me and my family moved from an urban apartment into a rural "wilderness" house, we didn't quite know what we were getting into. We knew it would be rough, but what adventures would we have in store for us?
Join me in reliving our adventures and hearing about our trials, tests, fun, and adjustments to this new way of living.
All in all, we are enjoying our adventure. Having our own house and our own piece of beautiful forest land is well worth all the trials and tribulations. We have lots of stories to tell and adventures to share. Eventually, we hope to have a welcoming place where our friends and family can come to stay, whether its to camp on our 10 acres of land, or to stay in our house.

This is a podcast about Technical Analysis and its practitioners. I think we've done a good job of bringing in some of the top technicians in the business, and in some cases, some of the best that ever did it. My goal when I first started this was to talk to people who bring different perspectives on the subject and on the markets in general. We've had Portfolio Managers, Analysts, Traders, Authors and Psychologists come on regularly over the past few years. Today I am thrilled to invite Riley Rosenberger to the podcast to get his point of view on Technical Analysis and what it feels like to start a career as a trader. Riley interned for us last year after spending some time training with SMB Capital in New York City. "Riley The Intern", as he's known in some circles, brings a unique perspective that we haven't heard on this podcast before. When he first decided that he wanted to learn about trading, his High School teacher in Colorado told him to think about doing something else. She said he didn't have the pedigree for that. I love that he ignored her and I love even more that every time I see him, he has a new book in his hand. He's always learning and constantly goes out of his way to get ahead. I appreciate that and I really think you'll enjoy this conversation. I certainly did!

Enhanced Votes Graph and Member Spotlight: @stevescoins
34 comments
Steem Basic Income
Steem Basic Income is a social experiment to bring a basic income to as many Steemians as possible. Members join by sponsoring others into the program. Steem Basic Income is delivered through providing regular upvotes to member content.
Enhanced Votes Graph
We last published this graph that 'maps' the interrelationships in our member pool seven days ago. Here is our graph and analysis from last time we published it:
And here is the graph from this week. It only shows people that regularly upvote each other or @steembasicincome, or have high subscription levels for regular upvotes that are too big for our smaller voting accounts to deliver. That makes sense, because we have over 4800 active members that are voted by ten different accounts. All of those interrelationships would be too much for this chart.
Member spotlight: @stevescoins
@stevescoins is a long-term Steemian, having just hit his 3-year anniversary. He has been a member of Steem Basic Income for almost a year, and we met at Global Block Builders in Austin a few months ago! He's quiet and thoughtful, giving people time to express themselves while he thinks through their comments and provide valuable response.
His blog is mostly personal, with a steady mix of informative resteems. Check it out to see whether he is a good fit for your interests!
Change the account name in the Steem Reports link to any account you want to look at:
Previous Member Spotlights
If you want to get involved, or to increase the level of basic income that you receive, enrollment is pretty straightforward:
Just send 1 STEEM to @steembasicincome. Include the name of a Steemian to sponsor in the transaction memo (preceded by @). You and the person you sponsor will each receive 1 unit in the program. You can sponsor any active Steemian (except for yourself), it does not have to be a current member.
Please check out our full transaction memo guidelines and then let us know if you have any questions.
The official currency for enrollment is STEEM. If we choose to accept SBD without refunding it, you do not receive extra value for it. Enrollments are processed automatically every 144 minutes.
Questions about Steem Basic Income?
Most questions are addressed in our FAQ or in these helpful resources. If you still have questions, ask in the comments section or join us in our discord channel.

This date can be based on the motions of heavenly bodies like the sun and moon. Calendars could also consider tools that illustrate the unit. And so on this celebration we will talk about about june 2017 calendar events i hope that which we provide below helps in a person.

BATON ROUGE, La. — As LSU running back Derrius Guice learned Saturday, nothing heals an aching running back like great blocking and an awful opposing defense.
Guice announced his return to full health Saturday with a 276-yard showcase against Ole Miss. After fighting through injuries for a month, Guice played as well against the Rebels as he has since his record-setting performance versus Texas A&M in 2016. The breakaway speed and endurance that make him one of the nation's most dangerous home run backs aren't all there yet. But the instincts, agility, patience and improvisational skill were on full effect.
RELATED: Derrius Guice returns in big way versus Ole Miss
Yes, the Ole Miss defense can be easier to slice through than a microwaved stick of butter. But the Rebels were consistently stacking the box against Guice, with zero success. The man ran like the future first-round pick he is. He evaded tacklers, cut through holes that weren't there and took advantage of a great run-blocking day from his finally-gelling offensive line.
In short, Guice was great. But great isn't good enough for film study. So let's look at why and how Guice was so great, starting with some data.
Jumping off the page
There are plenty of ways you can divide up Guice's 276 yards. He played 41 snaps, carrying the ball on 22 of those. He forced 8 missed or broken tackles, averaging 13.7 yards per carry on those plays. He ran 16 times with Danny Etling under center and 6 times with Etling in the shotgun. Carve up his stats any way you want to, and they'll always look impressive.
But the two subsets of his performance that stick out most are how he performed versus stacked boxes and what he did in certain personnel groupings.
First, let's look at the defenses. On 14 of Guice's 22 carries, Ole Miss had eight defenders in the box trying to stop the run. On three others, the Rebels had nine. That left only three carries where Guice faced the conventional seven-man front.
This didn't faze him.
|Guice yards
|Yards per carry
|7 in Box
|8 in Box
|9 in Box
Guice thrived when Ole Miss brought a safety into the box. Some of this was a product of Matt Canada's offensive scheme. With all the jet sweep motions and fakes, LSU doesn't have to block every man in the box. Defenders take themselves out of plays following the wrong ball carrier.
But Guice's success against stacked boxes was more than that. Specifically, Guice thrived because of great blocking days from fellow skill players. Canada varied personnel packages well, sending 10 different skill players to the field on downs where Guice carried. Here's a breakdown of Guice's success, divided by plays when certain teammates were on the field:
|Guice Yards
|Yards Per Carry
|Foster Moreau
|DJ Chark
|J.D. Moore
|Stephen Sullivan
|Dee Anderson
|Darrel Williams
|Drake Davis
|Derrick Dillon
|Russell Gage
|Jamal Pettigrew
We'll talk more about Guice's 102 yards with fellow running back Darrel Williams on the field later. For now, let's single out the performances of Moreau, Moore, Chark, Sullivan and Anderson. With a handful of exceptions for Chark, these guys weren't working as jet sweep decoys. They were blocking downfield. This shouldn't come as a surprise for Moreau or Moore. They've been in-line blockers by trade this season.
But Anderson and Sullivan deserve special recognition for their commitment to downfield blocking, Sullivan especially. The big-bodied freshman wideout lined up in a spot more like a wingback than a wide receiver on more than a handful of occasions. And he sprung Guice with huge blocks on at least two plays in the first quarter, including the first snap of the game.
Along with Williams (No. 28), Sullivan (No. 10) makes one of the two most important blocks on this play, opening the hole for Guice to earn a first down. Give Sullivan a lot of credit for his willingness to accept a role as a blocker.
But more than anyone else, Moreau deserves to be singled out. The tight end was on the field for 67 of LSU's 68 snaps Saturday, missing one Guice carry in the first quarter. For his efforts, he did catch a touchdown pass. And Pro Football Focus graded him out as LSU's fourth-best player, behind Guice, Arden Key and Williams.
Still, this undersells Moreau's value. Fifteen of Guice's 22 carries went to the side of the field Moreau lined up on. He's not a perfect indicator for where the ball is going to go, but even when the defense guesses correctly, he tends to make the right block.
Between Moreau and Moore, I counted five "key blocks," or blocks I deemed necessary for Guice to hit the hole. Sullivan and Williams added two more apiece. That's unbelievable reliability from skill players blocking in space. Which isn't to mention the added wrinkle of Williams' mere presence.
The ever-dangerous LSU split backs
Guice's fifth carry of the night might've been his most impressive. He took a handoff from Etling and went off-tackle left, cutting upfield between a seal block from left tackle Saahdiq Charles and an out block from extra tackle Toby Weathersby, who joined Charles on the left to form an unbalanced line, and gashed 59 yards for his longest carry of 2017.
But one factor of the play that made it particularly dangerous was Williams' presence.
Williams motions across the formation before the snap. Coupled with a faux lead block from Moreau, Williams takes the two Ole Miss defenders circled in blue out of the play, minimizing the chance of Guice being tracked down from behind in the backfield.
But Williams wasn't just a decoy. As mentioned before, he blocked rather well too. Just watch the block he makes on Guice's touchdown.
That's a 5-yard drive block from a running back. Savor that. You won't see that much.
LSU fans have clamored for years about seeing more two-back sets. Guice and Leonard Fournette rarely saw the field together a year ago and, until the Ole Miss game, Guice-Williams sets were rare too. Now it seems as if Canada has figured out the right packages to use the pair together. It's just one more thing to make Nick Saban and Alabama defensive coordinator Jeremy Pruitt think about for two weeks.
Let's give Guice some credit
LSU's perimeter blocking was superb. That's not even mentioning strong performances from interior linemen like Charles and fellow freshman Ed Ingram, both of whom might've had their best games versus Ole Miss. But great blocking only gets you so far. You still have to have a ton of talent to rush for 276 yards.
Nowhere is this more evident than the following play, the only one where Guice forced multiple missed tackles.
Guice evades a diving defender in the backfield, bounces outside a so-so Weathersby block and through an arm tackle, jukes a defender out of his uniform after Drake Davis failed to block him and finally goes down after three Ole Miss defenders caught up to him. It's a ton of work for a 9-yard gain. But it's the sort of play Guice should be famous for.
Well, that and plays like this one.
Guice's vision is subpar here. There are two holes on this play everyone can see. There's the one between Charles (No. 77) and Garrett Brumfield (No. 78) to Guice's left and there's the one between Ingram (No. 70) and Weathersby (No. 66) straight in front of Guice.
Guice choose neither. A cutback into the hole to his left would be too risky with an unblocked defender hiding behind Charles. And he recognizes wide receiver DJ Chark (No. 7) is going to take his defender into the hole in front of him. So Guice bends through the hole in front of him behind Chark's block, escaping all traffic for a 33-yard gain.
The play was the third of Guice's four carries of 25 yards or more Saturday. Chark was on the field for all four of those snaps. Three of those carries went to Chark's side of the field. Chark isn't much of a blocker. Even on this play, he more suggests his defender which way to go than he does block him. But he gets the job done.
And Guice, to his credit, knows what Chark is going to do. He sees the hole before it's even open. That's one thing great running backs do. Now that he's healthy, Guice is definitely one of those again.

Early this week I received a call from Zofia of Sonoma saying that she and her boyfriend have been interested in beekeeping and wanted to start a hive this year. Bee packages aren't available at this time of the year though reservations will start shortly for them and arriving in May or so, but that means missing the start of the flow in March and April. And the only way to start beekeeping this time of the year is to only buy a hive that has a good population of healthy bees and much honey stores.
Zofia and her boyfriend Antoine, along with her daughter Kira was supposed to head down from Sonoma, a 1.5 hour drive or so if you do not run into traffic. Last minute things changed and Zofia sends Antoine alone to pick up the bees and get a quick beekeeping 101 from my dad and me. We opened up one of my other hives as I didn't want to stress out the bees Antoine are taking home. Showed him the basics on what to look for during a simple inspection, and then we chatted for a little with Antoine asking basic questions on beekeeping 101. At dark I sealed up the hive that's full of bees, brood of all stages, pollen, and honey, sending Antoine on his way home to set up the hive.
Thanks Zofia, Kira, and Antoine for adopting the hive!

My favorite holiday to travel is definitely the Golden Week since it's fall weather and we get to celebrate our anniversary gaining new experiences. I'm sharing my experiences in Tokyo which include tips on what you should get to save both time and money in a way. First things first, we got the 7-day Japan Rail Pass(Ordinary) on this site. Since we realized too late that this would be more cost efficient after settling our planned itinerary that involved Osaka, Tokyo, and Kyoto. I got it in 4 business days which is something I strongly recommend doing if you're facing time constraints.
Order as advance as possible since the exchange orders you receive is valid for 90 days. You can then bring this exchange order to receive your JR Pass in their designated offices in Japan. To use it is simple as well, you enter through the gate where the train attendant can verify your pass and that will take you only a couple of seconds. I know that there are other e-platforms such as kkday or Klook where you can get them at better prices but they deliver using snail mail or require a longer lead time.
Another thing you should get is a sim card with data/ 3G/ 4G access. If you can pre-order this, then both sites also offer them. Since we arrived past midnight, we opted to get our sim cards locally. The store we managed to get it is Bic Camera at around JPY 2,900 (including taxes). This way you can rely on is the application, Maps for navigations. ( If you're an Android user, then rely on Google Maps.) I'll be blogging in the coming weeks about my Japan trip cause we took loads of photos and plan on sharing them in a moderate way I hope.
Now onto places of interest and food places in Tokyo:
Senso-Ji Temple / Asakusa Gyu-katsu
There's a street market on the way to the temple and it looks even more magnificent at night time. You should try the custard and red bean puffs available but be careful with eating in the stores as they don't allow it. Outside the temple near the train stations, you'll find Asakusa Gyu-katsu, we waited in line for 20-30 minutes under the rain and it was definitely worth it. While waiting in line you order and then when your table is finally ready. Your food will be served shortly after you're seated. It's only a small restaurant but they have two floors. It will cost you around JPY 6,000 for two people as I don't remember the exact figure since we were paying on a cash basis.
Tokyo Tower
It took us around 15 minutes to take photos and appreciate the tower view. There is a one-piece themed park and an observation deck in the premise as well which we opted out of. We got photos of the tower from the left side. Oh and the weather was super gloomy so editing helped a lot.
shibuya crossing
Anyone visiting Tokyo already knows about the busy Shibuya Crossing ; from street food galore to shopping til you drop or just appreciating the neon signs that makes you feel even more alive. There are a lot of locals and tourists roaming in this area so you could see the vibrant culture surrounding it.
Bunka Gakuen Costume Museum
Edit: This museum is for fashion enthusiasts. The admission fee is JPY 500 for each person. They featured the Brook brothers at the time we visited but from what we read they feature different fashion collections to raise interest and awareness. However, it's not clear on when they change their exhibits. You can find more details here: https://www.gotokyo.org/en/spot/143/
I'll be writing more briefly about Osaka and Kyoto in the weeks to follow. Til my next post. <3

Since the east end was host to the 2014 Commonwealth Games, Glasgow City Council has invested £17m into a regeneration project that is improving the eastend areas of Barrowfield, Dalmarnock and the Gallowgate. Emirates Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome has helped to promote healthy living and lifestyle to those in the eastend.
Tag: glasgoweast
The East End is becoming a haven for small businesses and their customers.
The increase in small businesses opening up shop in the east end rather than the usual Great Western and Byres Road has allowed places like Duke Street and the Barrowlands to turn into a retail paradise for those who wish to adventure outside of the 'Westend Bubble'.
Both eastend tourists and locals can enjoy food in places like Coia's (who have just celebrated their 90th birthday in Duke Street), the quirky Dennistoun Bar-B-Que and shop in places like the iconic 'Barras Market' and vintage shops like "Rip It Up" and "Mr Bens" who have their homes in the Calton district of the east end.

Public Access Defibrillator unveiling
A Public Access Defibrillator is set to be unveiled in Crossmaglen on Saturday 2nd January.
The Public Access Cabinet, which has been sponsored anonymously by a generous member of the community, is an essential piece of life-saving equipment which can only be accessed by secure pin code given by Ambulance Service when 999 is contacted to report a cardiac arrest. It can be used by any member of the community should they come across an arrest.
The devices are simple and safe and give clear spoken instructions so users do not require training to operate one. Once in position, the defibrillator detects the heart's rhythm and will not deliver a shock unless one is needed.
Speaking to The Examiner about the imminent arrival of the town's first Public Access Defibrillator, Crossmaglen & District Community First Responder Chairman Damien Martin said he is is proud to see the life-saving device installed in the town and invited all to attend its unveiling.
"Our aim is to install one of these in all our local villages of Culloville, Cullyhanna, Silverbridge and Creggan/Glassdrumman," added Damien.
Should anyone wish to donate towards this initiative please contact the Crossmaglen and District First Responders group via Facebook, email@ firstname.lastname@example.com or lodge with any member of the Bank of Ireland Crossmaglen Branch stating Crossmaglen & District First Responders. All donations will go towards the cost of the Defibrillator, and help purchase more for across the District and also help the local First Responder group in the future.

Flags will fly, anthems will be sung, and dreams will be made at the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
And while 32 nations comprising 736 of the best soccer players in the world will convene on Russia this summer, there will be only one ball used during the festivities. Well, one brand of ball that's been re-produced thousands of times.
The Adidas Telstar 18 – the result of millions of dollars and many years of research – is the official match ball of the 2018 World Cup.
Let's get to know it better.
From whence it came
The original Telstar – named after its resemblance to a communications satellite from the 1960s – made its debut at the 1970 World Cup, and brought with it the familiar black-and-white design of pentagons and hexagons stitched together most any soccer fan is familiar with. The goal was to create a ball that would stand out on colourless TVs, which were the style at the time.
This year's edition pays homage to its predecessor with a black and white design, though advances in production technology have allowed for a more intricate, pixelated pattern – a supposed allusion to what the original would look like in motion.
The ball is made of just six glued panels, as opposed to the 32 that were stitched together to make the original Telstar, giving it a more predictable feel.
Chip off the old block
While the Telstar 18 embodies the look of the original World Cup ball, the insides have been given a modern boost. The ball comes with a chip embedded, which doesn't seem to do much else other than unlock "challenges" for users who connect the ball to their devices (the details of which are murky and have yet to be fully announced, but think "how hard can you kick?" and stuff like that.)
The chip is also there to help users "enjoy an exclusive Adidas experience," whatever that means.
The Telstar 18 was designed to leave as small a mark on our environment as possible, using recycled materials for the ball itself, as well as its packaging.
Just how much of the ball is made with reusable matter is still a mystery, though the Adidas website lists the ball's composition as being 83 per cent thermoplastic polyurethane and 17 per cent polyester.
Nevertheless, it's clear that this is a modern product inside and out.
How does she fly?
Much was made over the unpredictability over the Jabulani, the official ball of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. (Just check out its "criticism" section on Wikipedia.)
But it seems as though the Telstar 18 has made a positive impression so far.
Leonel Messi (an Adidas-sponsored player speaking at Adidas's own unveiling of the ball) seemed to like it for one.
The Telstar 18 was also tested by various national teams and top-flight clubs in the lead-up to its unveiling, in the hopes of delivering a match ball that is reliable and will be free from controversy this summer. Argentina, Colombia, Mexico, Manchester United, Juventus, Real Madrid and Ajax were among the testers.
The online reviews from more casual players seem to be overwhelmingly positive as well, though if someone could hook up "happyman100" with a spare that would be cool.
But not everyone is impressed with the play of the Telstar 18, with goalkeeper Matt Pyzdrowski telling The Athletic: "Adidas has designed a ball that I expect to be received much in the same way the Jabulani was in 2010 amongst goalkeepers."
Pyzdrowski tested the ball in a variety of situations and came away with the belief that "the ball will cause more than its fair share of controversy."

The other day Dimitri, Gabi and I went to visit The Prehistoric City of Akrotiri. It is located on the Southern end of Santorini. The excavation at Akrotiri began in 1967 by Professor Spyridon Marinatos and is still in progress. Over thirty buildings have been located in the area of 1.2 hectares protected under a bioclimatic shelter. It is a very interesting look back into the past into the Late Bronze Age (1650-1500 BC). Many rooms, jars, buildings and sophisticated structures have stood the strength of time and have been very well preserved.
We had the pleasure of visiting the site when a local pianist was performing live. It was such a beautiful experience to take in the site whilst listening to the soulful sounds of the piano. Check out the video below.
WHERE: Akrotiri
OPENING HOURS: Tues-Sunday 8am-8pm (can change seasonally)

Shortly after his reconnaissance, Col. Griffith was killed in action. He was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross:
The President of the United States of America, authorized by Act of Congress July 9, 1918, takes pride in presenting the Distinguished Service Cross (Posthumously) to Colonel Welborn Barton Griffith, Jr. (ASN: 0-16194), United States Army, for extraordinary heroism in connection with military operations against an armed enemy while serving as Operations Officer (G-3) with Headquarters, XX Corps, in action against enemy forces on 16 August 1944 at Chartres and Leves, France. On 16 August 1944, Colonel Griffith entered the city of Chartres, France, in order to check the actual locations and dispositions of units of the *** Armored Division which was occupying the city. Upon observing fire being directed at the cathedral in the center of the city, with utter disregard for his own safety, Colonel Griffith, accompanied by an enlisted man, searched the cathedral and finding that there were no enemy troops within, signaled for cessation of fire. Continuing his inspection of outlying positions north of the city, he suddenly encountered about fifteen of the enemy. He fired several shots at them, then proceeded to the nearest outpost of our forces at which point a tank was located. Arming himself with an M-1 rifle and again with complete disregard for his own safety, Colonel Griffith climbed upon the tank directing it to the enemy forces he had located. During the advance of the tank he was exposed to intense enemy machinegun, rifle, and rocket-launcher fire and it was during this action, in the vicinity of Leves, France, that he was killed.via Jay Nordlinger's post to The Corner.

Greece's neo-Nazi Golden Dawn is increasingly influential among members of the country's political mainstream. Student Konstantinos Georgousis filmed party members on the streets of Athens.
Watch the video:
Warning: this video contains highly offensive and racist language
Golden Dawn, the extreme right-wing party in Greece, won 18 seats in the country's last election.
Since then support for the party has doubled as it pushes tough new anti-immigrant laws, including banning non-ethnic Greeks from the military and police.
National Film and Television School student Konstantinos Georgousis spent a month with the organisation last summer, as Greece hovered on the abyss, for his documentary film The Cleaners.
'Shocked by their hostility'
Writing about his experience of making the film, Mr Georgousis says: « I walked through every nook and cranny in the centre of Athens to find these Golden Dawn members.
« I was terrified that these members were proud to express their extreme ideas during campaigning openly in public. I was shocked by their hostility and by the way they treated immigrants in the Athenian squares. »
Greek centre-right New Democracy MP Adonis Georgiadis told Channel 4 News the opinions expressed by Golden Dawn supporters in Konstantinos Georgousis's film are not « the opinion of the majority of Greek people ».
« Many man people in Greece are very much concerned about the changing of the population because of these illegal immigrants, » he said.
« Golden Dawn is a disgrace for our society and our democracy. »
But he explained that Greek society was under « major pressure » which prompted some people went to vote for Golden Dawn.

Off-street art from a famous street artist – exhibited by a con artist?
I went Sunday and came out throughly dissappointed. Here's why.
First major problem was the cost; $35 (before "fees"). That is really expensive for any art exhibition, but considering this is an anarchist, anti-consumerist, satirical street artist exhibition, it's pretty fucking exorbitant.
As for the art itself, it was fine … sorta.
The thing is; Banksy's art itself isn't actually that impressive. Compared with the fucking wizardy other London street art can be, Banksy's stencil art is kinda mediocre. What makes his art awesome is what it says and where he puts it. Which is cool, but when you take it out of it's original context and pigeonhole it into some random exhibition it loses a lot of the punch that makes it so kick-ass in the first place.
Don't get me wrong, I do like Banksy's work, but because he actually goes to Palestine to paint anti-war sentiments, and goes to the worlds most prestigious art galleries to hang up his own Dadaist creations, none of that really comes up in this exhibit though.
Take this image I took (which sums up my sentiments about this exhibit).
Prints like this make up about 70% of the exhibit, and that image looks identical to this image I got from google, which looks identical to how I saw it.
What's worse is that of the prints there are usually about 2-6 of each, with little to no variety between them all, so you're paying to see duplicates, which really just doubles down on the lack of originality.
So that was the problem with the art, now lets get into the political side of things. Remember how I said how Banksy was a "anarchist, anti-consumerist, satirical street artist"? How ironic would it be if an exhibit by him was shamelessly sponsored by a bunch of corporations that had nothing to do with him for exposure?
…The first thing you see when you enter Aotea center is a car decaled with all they corporate sponsors logo's hideously mimicked in his style.
But honestly, by far the most obnoxious, lack of self-aware bullshit of all of this was that you LITERALLY HAD TO EXIT THROUGH THE FUCKING GIFT SHOP.
Yeah fuck this exhibit, if you want to see Banksy look at some of his images on Imgur, do not contribute to this bullshit.
I got down-voted on a previous thread for saying this but really Banksy is just a political cartoonist whose canvas is the world; taken out of their situational contexts, his images resemble the type of political satire that would be just as at home in any mainstream newspaper.
I was lucky enough to go to the first major exhibition by him (Turf War) when I was living in East London in the early 2000s – it was hilarious + subversive. (Eg, there was a live pig with "FUCK PIGS" spraypainted on it in a pen in the centre of the warehouse.) Oh, and it was free, like most stuff he's done. ('Dismal Land' had £3 entry tickets, limited to 500 people a day, but that was the only one with an entry fee.)
This show, though, is just a cash grab by his ex manager, to make money off suckers. There's a good reason that another artist (Adnate) painted 'a version of Caravaggio's The Taking of Christ with Lazarides as Judas and Banksy, behind his trademark monkey mask, as Jesus' when this exhibition was displayed in Melbourne.
It makes it worse that ratepayer money is funding it.. it's like finding out the Council has just bought ten thousand pairs of Adidos sneakers with four stripes for its staff to wear.
Makes council members happy they used public money to promote anti-establishment art.
I was kind of amused by the fact that there is a sign describing he how he had an 'acrimonious' split with his manager Steve Lazarides, and then as I am leaving I notice that the whole thing has been curated by Steve Lazarides.
The exhibition promotion The Art of Banksy clearly shows Lazarides as curator…
…but unless you know he is Banksy's ex manager who has acrimoniously split that will mean nothing to you.
The Art of Banksy
Bringing the iconic artist of Bristol to the centre of Auckland, the exhibition takes visitors on journey, exploring the questionable genius of the world's most infamous street artist with a retrospective of over 80 of the artists' off-street masterpieces.
I thought he became famous for provocative on-street art.
Most famously known for his stencilling technique, Banksy's artwork combines dark humour with underlying political messages and social themes, which have made him one of the biggest contemporary artists of our time.

Colombo, 07 March, (Asiantribune.com): Ex President and leader of the Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) Chandrika Kumaratunga has decided to step down from her capacity as SLFP leader temporarily owing to the continuous harassment she has faced after Mahinda Rajapakse took office as president of Sri Lanka.
In a letter addressed to Party General Secretary Maithripala Sirisena, Ms. Kumaratunga also proposed the name of Prime Minister Ratnasiri Wickremenayake as the acting Leader of the SLFP, at least until she is ready to take over her duties again.
She also noted that she will be away from the country due to both health and professional matters for several months. "I have been unable to perform my duties effectively in my capacity as SLFP leader after President Mahinda Rajapakse was elected as President of the country, because he has obstructed my powers both as SLFP leader and former President," her letter claimed.

I was fortunate to get a copy of the book Man in The Moon by William Joyce at Comic-Con. This is the second book in the Guardians of Childhood Series, this one is the history of Santa Claus! I love reading Holiday themed books I'm excited to read this :)

The House of Representatives has approved a bill that requires employers to give every employee in the Philippines a 10-day incentive leave with pay.
Qualified employees may soon enjoy yearly paid leaves of up to 10 days after the House of Representatives passed on third and final reading a measure seeking to double the service incentive leaves.
With a vote of 203-0, the Lower House passed House Bill No. 6770, which seeks to award 10 days of paid service incentive leaves annually for every employee that has been part of a company for at least one year. This is double than the five days that is currently required by law.
The bill, principally authored by Baguio City Rep. Mark Go, seeks to amend Article 95 of Presidential Decree No. 442, as amended, otherwise known as the Labor Code of the Philippines.
"The granting of such incentive boosts the morale and satisfaction of employees which is manifested in their increased productivity. Leave credits also minimize the risks of health and safety issues among employees which may be even costlier for both employers and employees in the long run," Go said.
The paid service incentive leave is a benefit for employees who have rendered at least one year of service required by the Labor Code. It aims to allow employees to take personal time off from work to take care of personal activities or endeavors while still enjoying compensation.
However, it is not available to employees who already enjoy vacation leaves of similar duration. Organizations employing less than 10 workers are also exempted from granting the service incentive leave.
Still, if the bill gets enacted into law, this will place the Philippines' labor laws ahead of rich, neighboring countries such as Japan, Singapore and China that all require less than 10 days of paid annual leaves for employees that have rendered at least one year of service.
Other authors of the measure, among others, are former Majority Leader Rodolfo Fariñas, Ilocos Sur. Rep. Deogracias Victor Savellano, Apayao Rep. Eleanor Bulut-Begtang, Nueva Vizcaya Rep. Luisa Lloren Cuaresma, Parañaque Rep. Gus Tambunting and Pangasinan Rep. Leopoldo Bataoil.
A counterpart measure in the Senate titled Service Incentive Leave of Employees (SB No. 1614) was filed by Sen. Joel Villanueva in November 2017 but it remains pending at the committee level.

After the dérive I decided to focus on colour as it seemed to be what I was mostly looking at when taking photos of the world. I also felt that it was a good jumping off point yet still broad enough that I could develop something interesting from. Looking back again at the photos I took on the dérive I was particularly interested in the contrast of colours, for example, on the jubilee line where the pale yellow handle bars contrast with the teal coloured surfaces.
The Dérive
Our first practice workshop was based around the idea that to explore a place you need to let yourself be taken in by your surroundings and keep a state of open mindedness as you travel with no aim in mind. I took lots of photographs as I travelled as this was the easiest and quickest way of recording what I found appealing.
What stood out to me most when I got home and looked over the photos was the colours. I was looking through a magazine looking for inspiration on what to do with the photographs when I came across an image of Vivienne Westwood that had very similar colours to one of the photographs I had taken. I used Instagram to compile two images (one I took and one from a magazine) into one image, matching them by the colours/similar shapes and objects.
Rachel Whiteread Exhibition
I hadn't seen much of Rachel Whiteread's work before going to this exhibition but what I had seen I found quite interesting as it was often concerned with space.
I enjoyed the range of materials and intriguing structures displayed but felt that when such a large amount of the same persons work is brought together I find myself becoming immune to it and don't take it in as much as if there were just a few of her pieces. However, there were some pieces that I was more drawn to, for example 'Untitled (Amber Bed)' which I drew in my sketchbook. I liked how it was displayed; slumped against the wall instead of just lying flat on the floor. I often find myself creating work in this space between the wall and the floor where it is not demanding of your attention but sits as if it were a human or animal.
Another collection of works that I was particularly drawn to were the smaller coloured objects . They were displayed on shelves as if they were semi precious and should be kept out of reach. How ever the simple formations and block colours are enough to intrigue.
Collaging in 2D
A collection of my own scanned 2d collages:
First studio exhibition
I found this first exhibition quite difficult to prepare for as I often work within the space that the work will be shown. I also had limited materials so I had to really improvise and work at the last minute to install a piece of work. The final outcome was rather messy and incomplete looking but it did make me realise what is important to me when creating work.
I found the feedback I received useful as it highlighted aspects I hadn't really thought about, for example someone asked me why I chose the colours I had used and I realised how little I had thought through the painting aspect of the piece. Usually the colours I use are an essential part to my work but in the rush I ended up using whatever colours I had. On the other hand I was happy with the materials (another important part to my work) I ended up using. They were mostly stuff I had collected since moving in such as the shoebox and plastic that was inside that I used to make a length to tie to a metal loop that was already on the wall. The dead roses were a very last minute decision and created a sad aspect to the assembly with a couple of people mentioning it reminded them of a gravestone. At first I didn't like this as I like to make work that makes people smile however, looking back I like that it could be interpreted in two different ways and depends on who the viewer is.
Another thing I like about the piece is the slumped positioning of the cardboard, although it adds to the unfinished look I also think it gives an anthropomorphic feel to what is basically a pile of rubbish. Looking forward I want to continue creating site specific work but thinking more carefully about the painting aspect of my work.

social media, email and all the other digital ways of communicating that have become as natural as breathing. "My son Francesco helps with that as it's more his thing," she says. "We've given in to it and are making it work for us, but we'll always like talking with our clients face-to-face and on the phone."

"My sister Liana is also on the team as an aesthetician," says Anita.

Masonry restoration!
In my humble opinion masonry repair was necessary. The bulldozer had given the wattle and daub a good shaking up but it could be repaired.
The clay lump behind the brickwork was seriously disturbed and we had to find a way of stabilizing the wall.
The bulging wall is due to clay on the internal wall falling between the internal and external walls and forcing the brickwork out.
Can you see the gaps where the render has fallen out?
The construction inspector didn't want a masonry repair.
He wanted the wall down and rebuilt
And who can blame him. But I wanted it to stay. I did explain we are were not in the business of building something new when there is a good chance of using masonry renovation techniques.
He compromised by recommending a local structural engineer from Attleborough to have a look. And would not be happy with anything less.
The engineer and I met on site and much to my surprise he was very sympathetic to my point of view.
Using 30 stainless steel ties it was possible to tie the brick wall into the timber frame and hold the wall in position without causing any more disturbances to the clay.
I was happy because I kept the wall and I was still on good terms with the building inspector.
A hole is drilled through the brick skin on the outside and through the timber frame behind it. The drilled hole is recessed by about 1/2" both outside and inside.
Cross Section of Wall
Timber Frame on the Inside Wall
A stainless steel bolt is then passed through and fixed to the frame with a stainless steel nut. Any excess thread is cut off.
Stainless steel is a good material because it doesn't rust.
By filling the holes you create an invisible and permanent repair both inside and outside.
This process had to be repeated for all the ties - spacing them equally over the more vunerable part of the gable end wall.
Each hole was carefully filled with mortar - darkened to match the existing mortar.
You can see that the general pointing of the
wall is far more obvious than the "invisible" 30 odd tie holes. So the wall renovations were a success.
You don't have to look far for
examples of this type of masonry restoration in and around Norwich.
A farmer friend of mine showed me how he tied this clay lump wall. The arrangement is the same on the other side.
The farm insurer has seen examples of cows getting crushed to death under unstable walls like this.
Coming back to my house. The clay in the walls was probably dug from the pond or "pit" behind the house. The infilling is wattle and daub - hazel sticks, or "wattle" fixed upright between the timber frame and covered with clay or "daub".
Old Wall
New Wall
By the way Wattlefield is also the name of a nearby village and suggests that wattle was grown here on a large scale to support the local "building projects".
The building had a thatched overhanging roof at one time which gave the walls added protection. So when a new smaller roof was put on a brick skin was probably built at the same time to maintain that protection.
The builders - from Norwich - who helped to renovate this house really enjoyed using the clay, straw, and sand mixture. Lime putty and sand made the perfect plaster to finish with.
Much of the clay had to be replaced as well as some of the crumbly oak timber frame.

This lovely young girl is Ohana who is just 8 months old. She is spayed, fully vaccinated and microchipped. She has been in her home since a pup but sadly is now being rehomed as work hours have changed meaning she is being left far too long on her own.
Unknown with small children, but older children fine as still a boisterous pup. Loves other dogs and wants to play, but still needs to learn some doggie etiquette. A no to cats as she lives with 2 and they have to be kept separate. Has met horses and ignored.
Ohana still needs further lead training as she can be strong but is improving with the use of a Dogmatic. Has recall and basic commands. Very toy and food orientated so great for training.
This lovely girl is in great condition and is just a typical young lady who still needs to learn some boundaries, but super friendly and loves to play!
Have you an Ohana space in your home?
Ohana has found her new home.

Scoreboards with signs touting Coke, Pepsi or the local pizza place may become historical relics. Under rules proposed today, ads marketing junk food in schools are being banned as part of the effort to curb childhood obesity. The idea may be simple, but execution will be tough in many schools.
The proposed rules laid out announced today by first lady Michelle Obama restrict marketing of junk foods and sugary drinks on school campuses. The restrictions from the White House and U.S. Department of Agriculture ban promotion of unhealthy foods and drinks as part of the first lady's "Let's Move" campaign to fight childhood obesity.
The idea is that classrooms should be healthy places, not ones where kids are bombarded with junk food ads, according to the first lady. She also emphasized that kids who are taught healthy habits at home should not get unhealthy messages at school.
The advertising rules follow USDA regulations about foods offered on campuses. California banned junk food and sodas from public schools in 2005 and Connecticut did the following year, but most states did not follow suit. Now, the federal government has stepped in with requirements that foods offered in school cafeterias be healthier. The restrictions also include vending machines and any other options sold in the lunchroom. There are new limits on calorie, fat, sugar and sodium content in foods and beverages sold in school. However, after-school sporting event concessions will be exempt.
Those who have not been on a campus lately may not be aware how extensive the marketing of drinks and other products is. Approximately $149 million is spent on school drink marketing each year, according to the USDA. Ads appear on scoreboards, vending machines, programs and publications, and fundraising signs hanging outside. Ninety-three percent of the school marketing is related to sodas and sport drinks. There is also heavy marketing of candy, snack foods, and near-by fast-food restaurants.
The proposed junk food ads restriction does not expecting schools to replace scoreboards right way and acknowledges that other situations present issues, such as whether promoting the school fundraising candy drive is now banned too. The USDA plans to allow schools to determine what constitutes advertising, but is also garnering feedback on national initiatives. For example, Pizza Hut has a "Book It" program that rewards kids who read a certain number of books with pizza coupons. The Pizza Hut program is advertised in school materials and on campuses. That is one program still being discussed.
Rules for school fundraisers that do not promote specific brands, like bake sales, are being left up to local jurisdictions or individual schools. Off-campus fundraisers at local fast-food outlets and such would still be allowed, but advertising promoting the food may be forbidden in schools. Promotion may be limited to parental emails so the marketing reaches parents not children. It is not clear whether local businesses that serve junk food, such as ice cream, would still be able to purchase banner signs that hang outside many schools as fundraising vehicles either.
The most expensive aspect for schools to implement would be replacing scoreboards and other built-in advertising that may exist. The proposed rules allow that current advertising to remain until it is replaced. If possible, that part of the scoreboard could be switched out to promote something less sugary, like Diet Coke.
The beverage industry is reportedly on board with the rules. Changing school signage to promote healthier drinks is a logical next step as part of the Obama school wellness campaign according to a statement from Susan Neely, American Beverage Association President and CEO.
Advertising isn't going away completely – businesses can still advertise low-calorie or healthy products to students. However, with junk food ads being banned, the days of seeing the Coke logo on scoreboards in schools may be over.
