Mind you, scientific research is paid for by the government through NIH/NSF and other granting agencies, conducted by faculty at government-, usually state-funded, academic institutions, submitted freely to publishing companies, reviewed for free by other scientists, and only then published and distributed by the publishing company. These publishers then charge university libraries enormous subscription fees so those same Universities whose faculty conducted the research and provided the content for these publications in the first place can have access to these journals. Just to make sure they've taken advantage of every revenue stream, the publishing companies now want to limit patient/public access to lifesaving research, by charging them access and document fees as well. And did we mention, this is taxpayer funded research. It's quite a business model.
Lucine believes in open research and open data policies. The Research Works Acts is neither and should be opposed.

How to Stay Committed to Your Wellness Goals
People often have a hard time maintaining their excitement to attain their fitness goals. Although setting these goals is a big step, the battle mainly about finding the energy and willpower to commit to a routine. If that seems like you, you're one of many.
Below are five pointers that can help you meet your wellness goals:Here are five tips that will guide you to your wellness goals:Below are five pointers that will lead you to your wellness goals:
Start SMART.
A lot of resolutions and wellness goals are unmet all because they're short of being SMART. SMART stands for Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, and Time-Bound. When you define your goals, you will have a more accurate perspective of the results you want, and therefore, you will find it easier to to achieve them.
Get social support.
There may be other people around you who also have their own wellness goals to achieve, and if you support, motivate and learn from each other, you can both reap benefits. If you have mutual trust, there is no reason for you not to succeed.
Get a coach.
Health and wellness coaches create a concrete plan for you and motivates you to adhere to that plan through various tried and tested techniques. The number one goal of these coaches is to dig into the unseen problems that are hindering you from achieving your goals. Understanding the reasons for your lack of motivation is what they do best, and making you change that part of you is their ultimate goal, and they usually meet it more often than not. Coaches are not equally good though, but research will help you find the right one for you.
Get in the right mood!
There's a variety of ways to hop in the workout mood. Get started with a few basic steps, like having a delicious and energizing preworkout smoothie or wearing your workout getup. There are larger strategies as well that will help you maintain a consistent workout routine. Come up with a self-reward system each visit you make to the gym. Anything that gets you in a workout mood, do it!
Keep a backup plan in handy.
Planned vacations or unexpected sick days can easily destroy your workout plans, and are a usual reason behind workout journeys getting derailed altogether. To avoid this common trap, be prepared with backup plans in case there are changes to your routine. For instance, when you go on trips, schedule time for activities that can substitute for your workout, such as hiking or jogging. If you're not feeling very well, do some light intensity stretches or yoga. Any workout will let you continue the habit and make sure you're ready to go when you're feeling much better.

Justice League of America v.2 #2
"The Tornado's Path, Chapter Two: Tornado-Red/Tornado-Blue"
Writer: Brad Meltzer
Pencils: Ed Benes
Inks: Sandra Hope
Colors: Alex Sinclair
Letters: Rob Leigh
Cover artists: Michael Turner/Phil Jimenez & Andy Lanning
Publisher: DC Comics
Price: $2.99 US/$4 CAN
There are a couple of plot developments in this issue that don't quite make sense to me. The disconnect between the big three iconic heroes and the rest of the case is frustrating, for example, and Black Lightning doesn't seem to act in the most intuitive manner either. Still, there's something fun and engrossing about this issue, and it's the air of mystery Meltzer brings to the book. There's a real sense of buildup here and a hint of an epic, larger-than-life threat that only a team of god-like heroes can combat. Meltzer's script also adds credibility to the genre by creating a convincing super-criminal underworld that has an air of logic to it but also pays homage to the many stories that have come before this one. The story makes the most of the shared continuity of the DC Universe, but at the same time, the writer doesn't allow minor details from the past to hinder the plotting. This Justice League relaunch is far from the next Watchmen, but it's a solid super-hero yarn that will entertain longtime readers and newcomers to comics alike.
While Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman continue to discuss the formation of a new Justice League, Green Lantern, Arsenal and Black Canary are busy with the kind of work such a team would conduct, namely, tracking down the stolen android form of their one-time teammate, the Red Tornado. Meanwhile, Black Lightning is in St. Roch, trying to pinpoint the whereabouts of a number of unaccounted-for super-villains who may have a connection to a recent assassination. And elsewhere, the Vixen learns just why two of those missing villains lured her to a pub in Hub City.
I think there's a definite effort on penciller Ed Benes's part to capture the sort of iconic, dynamic energy that past Justice League of America v.1 pencillers brought to the book. I can see a hint of influence from such artists as George Perez and the late Dick Dillin, and the final, climactic cliffhanger scene in this issue boasted art that reminded me a great deal of Dan Jurgens's style. It's interesting to note that Benes favors a horizontal approach to the storytelling. It effectively conveys a larger scope to the story (though it makes finding a narrow, vertical panel that's appropriate to scan for inclusion in a review). Overall, I think Benes turns in some inconsistent artwork but not so much so that it interferes with the story all that much. Alex Sinclair's colors really pop, though, and I love the energy those bright colors bring to the story.
I know Black Lightning was envisioned as a loner kind of hero in the 1970s, but his actions in this issue seem foolhardy. Furthermore, Meltzer never takes the time to explain why he's hunting super-villains across the country; it runs contrary to his usual MO when flying solo as a hero. Furthermore, the holy trinity of the DC Universe sitting idle for two issues, going over photos and voting seems a bit excessive. It's almost as though we're watching them ignore the work the League should be doing in order to re-establish the League. The selection process seems as though it'll be a moot point, because the promised lineup appears to be made up of those heroes who just happened to stumble into the villains' paths.
One criticism of Meltzer's work that I've seen arise on several occasions is of his use of multiple narrative captions. I can understand why some readers find them so distracting, especially when we see them used for multiple voices in the same scene. Still, it's also clear to me that in those instances, it's done for the sake of clarity (caption colors distinguish among the speakers), and those captions that offer various characters' internal monologues honestly don't bother me that much. Meltzer is taking us inside these characters' heads, and it helps not only explain the story but make these unreal figures seem more human.
Despite some stumbling blocks, this story was a satisfying one. I love that the villains are so organized while the heroes are left in the dark. Meltzer combines a traditional super-hero genre tone with a darker conspiracy that's fascinating and entertaining. Furthermore, I enjoyed the characterization of the Red Tornado. It's easy to relate to his excitement at having a normal life, just as one can understand why he might be feeling some regret for what he feels he might have lost in his effort to gain more important things. 7/10
Note: For readers who may missed it or for those who clicked on the wrong link, I've also written annotations of the second issue of Justice League of America. Click here to read that feature.

The journey continues to a more organized life.
Last month we talked about starting small and figuring out what to keep, donate, trash or recycle.
Now you're left with everything you want to keep in your space…so let's talk basic organizing strategies.
A reminder – there is no right or wrong way to organize. It's what works best for you.
But the goal should be to have a place for everything. If everything has a home, it's much easier to stay organized. A place for everything…and everything in its place.
Group like items together. Keeping like with like helps you and your family find things more quickly. It also makes it so much easier to put things away when you're finished with them.
Store items where you use them. The closer an item is to the place where it's needed, the better. For example, instead of loading up a single closet with every set of sheets you own, store them in the rooms where they'll be used.
Make things accessible. I call it the "nose to knee" zone. Store the items you use the most between nose and knee height to avoid having to get on a step stool or kneeling on the floor. You want to use all that vertical space, so store lighter items you use less frequently up high. Keep heavier items down low – that way you reduce the risk of those items falling on your head!
As always, if you find yourself in need of help or motivation, give me a call!

Exploring the Cape Wine Lands is an experience that everyone should try at least once in their lives. There's nothing quite like a glass of wine with a cheese platter in a beautiful setting. And there are so many wineries to choose from in the Western Cape!
With so many options to choose from, it can be tricky to figure out which wineries to visit. Sure there are the popular ones that first pop up when talking about doing a wine tasting, like Spice Route for example. But with over 800 wineries in the Western Cape, you are missing out on so many other amazing wineries if you only stick to what is popular.
The free Cape Wine Farms mobile app is there to help you find the best wineries. The app will show you which wineries are nearby, along with ratings and other detailed information. You can then easily make an informed decision on which wineries you want to visit and plan your route accordingly!
The app, however, aims to bring more to the table than to just function as a simple navigating tool that finds wineries. By using the app, you can also "check in" at wineries. When you check in, you earn badges. These badges have different points assigned to them. If you gather enough points, you can use your points to make purchases on the Cape Wine Farms shop! Effectively, that means that just by visiting your favourite wineries and checking in, you can get wine tastings, cheese platters and so much more!
The Cape Wine Farms mobile app is a winery lover's dream come true! I highly recommend downloading it before heading on your next wine lands adventure!

I finally got around to visiting the Isle of Wight. I had some preconceived ideas about what the island was like, but happily I was very wrong.
I'd imagined an island full of mini-Blackpool type resorts, instead I found a very pleasant place.
I set off from Portsmouth on a gloomy morning and arrived 45 minutes later in Fishbourne
Traffic had been light so I arrived a Portsmouth an hour early and caught the 7am ferry.

I'm a pretty liberal person, however, sometimes I love watching Fox News just because I perceive it as being so ridiculous. So when I heard that Fox News was getting their panties in a twist about a "rapper" coming to the White House, I figured it had to be Lil Wayne, or Kanye, or maybe even Tyler, The Creator. Nope, Common. Are you serious? People are freaking out because Common, of all people, was going to be part of the White House poetry event? Sure, he supports the freeing of Mumia Abu-Jamal and had been critical of our previous presidency, but he brings a perspective that needs to be seen.
Here's a pretty cool video Common put up following him on his visit. I feel that with White America, especially Conservative White America, that "rapper" has such a negative connotation because the majority of the US is out of whack in their perception of the music world. When they hear "rap" they think gang bangers, drunk dealers, and illicit lyrics. Not thoughtful lyrics, progressive, and positive, some themes I think Common embodies.

Thank you, dpack, I will go for the Russell Hobbs; stiff door and noisy puts me off a bit. I don't use my micro continuously, just heat up today's choice ex super market.
The way my back is today, I think I may have to retire sooner rather than later. I had just done my shopping, and decided to get to the checkout, bent down to get the first item out of the bag and the base of my spine decided it didn't want to stand up after being half bent to put the food into the carrier, oooh. Got out of there and to motor and here I am, still as I don't want to be. We will see how it is in the morning as to when/if I go to work. I would do less now, MR, if I was in your position and get the income from the books asap, will the royalties pay for a trainee to work and you can do the supervising?
We could produce a lot of heating from one of our employees, he could easily provide enough hot air for the 40 odd units on our estate, including the council yard.

I hope your back is feeling better today. If not, you will have to see the doctor, or if you use one, a chiropractor. Go careful with it.
I don't think unless I get unable to work physically that I will ever get round to the books. Something for my real old age perhaps, and no, I can't see them ever making enough royalties to support a trainee. I think we will have to get a subcontractor within the next few years though, as it is getting more difficult as both husband and I are getting more 'mature'.
We kept getting very heavy showers yesterday, so in the end, husband suggested I stayed home and did some paperwork, so spent most of the day trying to sort some out. Also strung most of the onions for storage.

The back was not bad enough to stay at home this morning chopping wood! And not bad enough not to go to work, but still had the odd twinges during the day, so I will be taking care, and a little uncomfortable now, sitting down. I will see how tricks are tomorrow.
How lucky you are to have a considerate husband, MR. I had the opposite, an inconsiderate wife. I would set out to do a job, mow lawns, whatever, but mainly the veg garden, get so far then she would want to go somewhere and me to take her. I used to offer the keys to the pickup, but it was impossible for her to drive it saying it was too big!; and so I would lose the rest of the day driving to collect, putting together whatever it was that we had bought and finishing with Match of the day. My only sin was to play hockey on Saturday afternoons, and we both played badminton on Monday night.
I do think you should get round to the writing, you could have a best seller, MR.- as a friend used to say to me "I'm only saying".
With my memory as it is, rather lacking at the moment, the boys at work tell me what day it is and when to go home! I think they are taking it a bit too far but it is fun. I even forgot to go to buy the microwave, but Monday will do, tomorrow is here, a bit of cleaning up, then firewood-plan A,1. I guess a few more appendages as the day goes on!

I had to fill the kindling boxes at the shop; on the way home last night, it was empty so I went home filled up with 12 nets and came back-Friday night is fish and chip night with a long standing friend of 35 years-who now lives opposite where I used to live a mile down the road before I bought the holding. This morning another 2 nets gone! My stock is going down quickly, faster than I can chop it. I like to start the winter with around 500 nets minimum, but it doesn't always work out that way as I also have to make "things" for people who seem to think I am a joiner, I explain the only joining I do is with nail or screw, I never do proper joints or glue!
I have just been told the heating is off here at the library, I hadn't noticed! It is surprising though "they" are repairing anything, as the council want to close the library here and we all go to Welshpool for our books and all the other services they provide here. The trouble is that the Welshpool library is much smaller than ours, and open less hours. They are trying to save money, but luckily the school uses this library; for some reason the school doesn't have one!

I can't see me ever writing a best seller, but nice to point it out.
I don't know about your pick up then, but our pick up is only slightly wider than a car and drives in a similar way in 2 wheel drive; the only difference is it has a larger turning circle, but don't have too much trouble driving it. I am a reasonable height though, so a small woman may have a problem.
Have just got back from a Coppice Group meeting and couple of days away. It was about reminiscences of a couple of our older members, and I had to sit with one of them to give moral support as he isn't used to public speaking, but he did pretty well. An interesting evening and met a few friends as usual.

Don't be defeatist regarding the book writing, MR. you never know.
The kindling is flying, 8 nets last night and I have another 8 nets in the van, in anticipation today, all good stuff! I do get compliments regarding my kindling, even though it is old pallets and often dirty, it is always dry and as one lady said to me-"Let me know if you move to another shop with firewood, or if you are not doing it via a shop I will come to collect", compliment indeed. Basically I keep my wood under cover, but the wind blows through all the time so any that is wet dries pdq! It is an accidental wood drying shed, the snow demolished one half of the roof and opposite end, blew out a matter of 2 minutes after I walked past it. So a drying shed by default, but it works well.
My vehicle, MR, is an swb van. I want a pickup, but have not yet found what I want, I thought I had but too many miles on the clock for an ex council Ford Ranger pickup.
I like meetings where you are all of a mind. I hate it when things go a bit upside down and then there are 'battles'. I have got to go to see an old bed frame a lady wants moving away and deliver some wood for her fire, when I need to go home and saw logs for an ex neighbour and chop wood.
The next decision I have made is to retire soon. I will miss the money but not the company!

Yes, I do too. Unfortunately, I think she has moved on to other interests and last time I contacted her she said she wasn't doing anything very Downsizery, but I will try again.
Our log sacks are going well too Gregotyn. I have an order for 20 that have to go out this week, 40 for next, and I am sure that there will be others very soon. Currently I have 38 done, so another 22 to do for current orders. At the moment it is just carry on carrying on. I also have another order for a besom, but luckily have that in stock. If I get a chance between log sacks, I need to do a few more heads and handles for assembly as and when.
This morning I have to go and see the people about the last dormouse survey of the year, then help them remove the boxes. I have a feeling we could also be sending more on as I am sure we won't be able to find them all.

Yes, gz, I wish Cassandra would come back to us occasionally and tell us how it is going. She definitively added another dimension to our lives here. The friends who visited me from Australia a few weeks ago have a son who lives on Tasmania; my plans are to email him and ask him to call on her and ask her to at least let us know how she is and what she is up to every now and then. It does not matter to me if she is downsizing or not-Politicians!
I am glad the logs are keep going for you MR., it is all money, and compensates for when the income gets a bit sparse.
I keep on selling the kindling faster than I can produce it; another 8 nets yesterday. I am beginning to worry that, although they should all have put the central heating on, they are carrying on with the coal/log fires just to tire me out! I hit work this morning around 5.30am and could have carried on all day-I have so much to do for others there, besides my own work of open up, unpack deliveries, book them in and put them/it away. I get the call 'can you give "whoever" a hand with this or that please? It is all money coming in-I am lucky at my age to be working anyway, another birthday soon! Mot for the motor before that-next Monday; I'm not too hopeful about the outcome as it is rattling a bit. I have been looking for the next step up, a pickup with 2 seats only, a small space behind them to put the essential tools in, a big back to carry wood and full nets of kindling, and long enough to sleep in when I go to a show.

I am afraid I haven't messaged Cassandra, so will do that today. Sorry, been a bit lazy this week.
I think people are stocking up on kindling/logs at the moment. Our log sacks are going out pretty well too, and we are slowly catching up on our log loads. The weather isn't helping a lot. Yesterday was supposed to be pretty well dry, but ended up being drizzle or rain most of the day. Husband and son managed to split some more large logs, but it was more difficult because of the wet. It has put us back quite a bit again.

Crikey you lot - no rest for the wicked I see. I have been meaning to get on line for some time, but I have not worked out how to convince the new phone to download photographs that are on it. I have installed the driver software but it insists there are no images on the phone (or files!).
I have actually been ridiculously busy for the last few months. First of all, two of the three volunteer drivers went awol (one lost her husband, the other had a series of medical treatments of her own) so I was driving pretty well every day of the week, which in addition to dogwalking and bank-cleaning was keeping me exhausted.
Then there was the Bullock Festival that required a Victorian gown so I finished off the one I started to make from the curtain I found at the tip, and received many compliments for all it was clearly not accurately detailed (the zip down the back was the giveaway). I also designed a knitted a simple shawl which has tails on it so you can tie it around your waist. Between that a multiple layers we survived the bitter chill of the snowy day that the weather gods turned on for the Festival.
We also had a mini Back-to-back which involves shearing a sheep, spinning the yarn and knitting it into a jumper but as ours only lasted two hours it was actually a lacey square. Unfortunately the organiser forgot to check what sort of sheep it would be so we have a merino lamb with about a centimeter of fluff on it (easy to handle and clip with the hand clippers, but not so good for spinning). My wheel, which had been given a new drive band the night before, threw the thing as it stretched so I came very close to tears with the trauma of it all.
I have also been talked into going back on the Hall Committee. I was elected Secretary but the Treasurer resigned the next day so I am now Secretary Treasurer. This has proven extremely interesting as I now have a very clear understanding of the cash flow at the Hall (mostly outwards) and the failure of the Market to generate any income at all. The President decided it was a good idea to waive stall fees in the hope more vendors would sign up, but instead we still have the same grey stalls, but no income. In fact it's costing money to run radiators, lights etc, so I have drafted a discussion paper for the next meeting. Unfortunately our Public Officer (a farmer and the only one with an ounce of business sense) will not be at the meeting so I may well lose the debate.
On the up side, at the last market two of our eight clients were a gay couple who have just moved here from Sydney (well, actually not till after Christmas, but they are here at present sorting out the house), who desperately want to be on the committee, and bring culinary and marketing skills.
Meanwhile, Soup and Cinema, an informal gathering of locals who watch foreign language movies while eating a picnic, has discovered the Hall and we had our first movie event there the other week.
Our fundraiser next month is to be a 'Rocking Retro Rave" according to my advertising flier and will finish up with a screening of Elvis Presley in Blue Hawaii, so things are looking up. I am trying to persuade the committee to can the Market for good, replace it with four 'events' per year, and generate revenue from hall hire. Sounds like a good idea to me, but they can be a little fixed in their ways.
I have also applied for a $20,000 grant to get a new kitchen and air conditioning installed, so we can get rid of the very expensive and utterly inefficient radiators.
What else? I turned 65 last week. Normally this would be grounds for celebration as I would have been eligible for a pension, sadly I have another year to wait as they are incrementally raising the age. Still, I survive on what I have and am still able to indulge a little. Which is a good thing as the Pancake and Crepe Shop has been taken over by new owners, so I no longer have to move to the city to be able to get good coffee, variable menu, luscious cakes and good service. In fact I have become so much a part of their furniture that they turned on a cake for my birthday!
Next month I will house-sitting for a friend in Oatlands, and running her shop. She is the person who was so successful selling my hats, but has been unable to open as the shop does not generate much trade in winter and they needed the income to cover the two mortgages they are paying (they had expected to move into a fully functional B&B business, but the previous owner was a bit of a charlatan).
So Seb and I will go into town where we will have an enclosed yard where I can hopefully finish off his 'come when called' training, I will be two doors from the crepe shop though so may run into trouble.
Meanwhile I am making large crepe paper flowers to decorate the hall with as I know from past experience that the current committee's idea of decorating is throwing some streamers around with some balloons and leaving it at that.
Busy Busy.

Serious Incident: two Boeing 737 8AS aircraft, EI-EFF and EI-DHA, Dublin Airport, on 8 March 2015: Report 2015-022
On the evening of 8 March 2015, the Air Movements Controller (AMC) at Dublin Airport (EIDW) reported a loss of separation between a departing and a landing aircraft.
The departing aircraft (EI-EFF, using 'callsign 342') was cleared for take-off with a landing aircraft (EI-DHA, using 'callsign 45TR') at 3.2 NM on final approach to the same runway. Re-appraising the situation, the AMC attempted to stop the departing aircraft at the holding point, however, as a result of a blocked transmission the departing aircraft continued past the stop line which was in accordance with its previously issued clearance. Clearing the departing aircraft for an immediate take-off, the departing aircraft became airborne prior to the arriving aircraft touching down.
A runway occupation alert, a function of the Advanced Surface Movements Guidance and Control System (A-SMGCS), activated as a result of the reduced separation between the aircraft during the event.

A few days ago I met some colleagues for a co-translation meeting, one of the many I hope to organise. We brought our own questions and examples so we could analyse them together and discuss possible solutions. The texts I chose to share were an example of marketing content – website copy for a well-known American brand. It had to be localised and transcreated for Spain, and although it was mostly fun and a real pleasure to work on, there were a few aspects that really made me think about how necessary adapting the content to the target culture is for the product to resonate with the local community. This great exercise made me reflect on this matter and the work I do on a daily basis, and I've put together a few simple examples.
The copy in question was created to sell a particular product as a gift for Father's or Mother's Day, Easter, weddings, birthdays and other celebrations. I'm talking about customs and traditions here, elements closely attached to people that need to be expertly adapted to create the same effect on Spaniards as they have on Americans using the US website. At the co-translation meeting, I explained my adaptations to the Spanish market while other colleagues suggested alternatives for Argentina or even for Britain, since some American customs or even home elements don't make sense in the UK, e.g. 'the laundry chute', which became the 'washing machine' in the Spanish version since we don't have such a fun way to send the dirty clothes to the laundry room. Another solution would have been cesto de la ropa sucia (hamper), but washing machine was shorter and didn't require the word 'dirty', which sounds unappealing.
Some issues are relatively easy to fix. For example, sports and games. Describing a father in the US as a baseball fan or as the coach for the school team makes sense, but not in Spain. Here this dad would turn into a football fan and an amateur football player with his friends. In the same vein, a father who loves playing poker in the US would probably play mus in Spain, or one who helps his children with science projects (think of the handmade exploding volcanoes often shown in films and shows) would help them with homework because more Spanish children bring home heaps of homework than science projects.
What about food and meals? Using a Sunday brunch to celebrate Mother's Day would be an epic failure in Spain if you want to sell products as gifts for this occasion. We don't do brunch with our family, we eat it out with friends, and it's only seeped into our culture in the last few years. Spanish clients will be more willing to give mum a gift around a homemade paella on Sunday. And no, not everyone eats paella on Sunday, but everyone would understand the cultural reference and relate to it. Food can be replaced with an equivalent. However, if it's important to maintain the food item from the original text, then it can be subtly explained or described to ensure it's understood; this is what we translators, localisers and transcreators call a gloss, better woven into the text than added as a translator's note in marketing copy.
And speaking of Father's and Mother's Day, the date must be localised, too. In Spain, for example, Father's Day is always on 19 March, while Mother's Day falls on the first Sunday in May. A website which starts by describing Father's Day as the most important event in June would confuse the Spanish audience and, guess what. Confused readers don't trust a brand and they are less likely to buy it.
We all agreed in the co-translation group that traditions and celebrations are among the most challenging when it comes to transcreation. While working on the content for this brand, I felt a bit of a threat – cultural colonialism. I had warring feelings because, yes, I am familiar with baby showers, trick-or-treating and Easter egg hunts, but in their right context: the US. These have gained acceptance and popularity in Spain, just like cupcakes and muffins did a decade ago (forcing our delicious magdalenas to the bench as second-class players). Yet, I still can't help feeling a bit responsible when I have to translate content to sell products for these occasions, hence pushing them into Spanish culture.
Needless to say, some cases must be brought to the client's attention, for example the celebration of Sweet Sixteen. I told them this had to be replaced with the equivalent celebration: our coming of age or 18th birthday. Easy-peasy. Unfortunately, not everything is so straightforward.
What about Quinceañera, the 15th birthday celebration many Latin American girls dream of? It's not totally unknown in Spain given the high number of people from Mexico, Central and South America who live in the country, but it's not part of our culture and many people would be surprised to see it on a website targeting customers in Spain. The options were leaving it out, finding an equivalent (which we don't have) or translating it with a gloss here or there to subtly clarify what it is. This last option is exactly what I did. Why? Because this way the website caters to a large community of non-Spaniards living and consuming in Spain, helping them preserve their customs; but also because this is a great way to learn something about other cultures for those who land on the page without previous knowledge of what the Quinceañera celebration is. In addition, the client can still offer this product in the new market, even if sales won't be as high as in the US or Latin America.
These few examples provide a general overview of what cultural adaptation might imply and how a professional can help brands thrive in new markets with content that potential customers can relate to. If you are interested in exploring the Spanish market and getting to people's emotions by pushing the right buttons, a professional like me can give your brand a local voice.

Any Mexican grandpa will tell you a shot of tequila is the perfect thing for a sore throat or cold. It might make you feel better, but there's some evidence to suggest alcohol can actually make it harder to recover from a cold. But hey, whatever floats your boat.
We say, give it a go!
"Plenty of liquids" is a well-known remedy for getting oneself out from under the weather. But expanding that definition to include a kicked-up shot of tequila makes a day laid out on the couch sound much more appealing. In the 1930s, doctors in Mexico recommended the following concoction to fight off a cold.
.5 ounce of tequila blanco
.5 ounce of agave nectar (or honey) (to eliminate bacteria and soothe sore throats)
.5 ounce of fresh lime juice (for Vitamin C)
Though some people (including tequila companies) swear by its healing powers, others say it's hogwash.

Over time, the company 2020 Peugeot is gaining much better condition, as well as increasing its popularity. It is important for the manufacturer, since a few years ago it was not so much to the utter failure and bankruptcy. However, new models and update existing vehicles 2020 Peugeot has allowed to reach a new level of quality.
The next positive moment was the release of the second-generation station wagon 2020 Peugeot 308 SW – years on the international market. For the first time he was introduced to the public through the Internet in January of this year. Of course, if the manufacturer did not disclose all the details about your 2020 Peugeot 308 SW, because preparing for the world premiere at the Geneva Motor Show, which took place in April this year. It was after this event is now available full information about the new product, including the cost and specifications.
Because today we want to introduce you to the fullest with this interesting, stylish French generalist, reveal its strengths and weaknesses, to pay attention to design solutions, and discuss everything that is located in the engine compartment of the machine.
First, we note that the second generation of the 2020 Peugeot 308 SW has become more substantial like a station wagon than the first generation, which in its proportions more like a minivan. As a result, the second generation has become more interesting, brighter, more dynamic and even more sporty. In the photo and video materials you can see for yourself.
The front car, in fact, with exactly the same performance of the front part of the hatch 308. In principle, it is not surprising, since both cars have the same platform. Of course, the wagon was the most attractive option, "face" of the hatchback, it is that which is presented in Allure equipment. A distinctive feature is the full LED lighting fixtures. Of course, the wagon was a beautiful, enclosed in a frame of chrome trim grille, large bumper with air intakes, label maker, set right on the hood, as well as a number of original design ideas.
Side view is a delight and pleasure. The image with accuracy reflects the sporting spirit and the desire to go to the far low speed. These lines, sloping roof, high sills, stylish swollen wheel arches. Work worthy of respect.
Stern also performed superbly. The unique lighting fixtures, original tracks from the claws of a tiger, which was a special chip French manufacturer, together with a large tailgate, adorned with a sports spoiler, eventually forming a stunning view from behind.
One can say with confidence that in terms of appearance 2020 Peugeot 308 SW is far ahead of its competitors. And it really is, look at the wagons Volkswagen Golf, Ford Focus, Chevrolet Cruze and the Skoda Octavia. Against the background of the 2020 Peugeot 308 SW all of them pale, gray and expressionless. Well, maybe the Seat Leon and Honda Civic in the station wagon can compete on external data with the Frenchman, as well as possess a fairly bright and original variation of execution.
As for the size, they are, of course, turned out to be more than that soplatformennika hatchback 2020 Peugeot 308. The official figures are as follows:
- length – 4580 mm
- width – 1804 mm
- height – 1470 mm
- wheelbase – 2620 mm
- ground clearance (clearance) – 130 millimeters.
A couple of words about the clearance. For Europe, on a standard 15-inch wheels it is actually only 130 millimeters. However, specifically for the Russian market of ground clearance was increased to more suitable to our roads 165 millimeters. Of course, this solution is a natural and correct position with 2020 Peugeot, and therefore separate them thanks for what took into account peculiarities of our roads.
Tell me, you already know the interior of the 2020 Peugeot 308 hatchback? If yes, then talk about the interior of the wagon makes no sense. This is because they are identical.
Nevertheless, we believe proper to mention a few words about the internal arrangement of new items. Like the hatchback, there is the instrument panel located unusually high, though in practice such an arrangement does not cause any discomfort. Rather, on the contrary, very correct and convenient, readable and functional.
The first row of seats is equipped with pronounced lateral support and the sports design and construction. Sitting in them really comfortable, it is a fact. The center console is equipped with a high-quality modern equipment, all in their places of a button. That is, the interior conceived from the point of view of the driver and passengers.
Many people know that the first generation wagon 2020 Peugeot 308 SW offered optionally with three rows of seats. In the second generation of this will be gone, and therefore only offered a five-seat interior, including the driver. A very sensible decision, given that it's not a minivan, a station wagon full.
Despite serious enough similarities with hatchback, fundamental differences between them do exist. And they are in the luggage compartment. Even assuming that the second row of seated passengers, it does not prevent you from across a large and convenient tailgate place where 610 liters of luggage. Of course, if the rear passengers will not be, and lower the backrest, the space will be much more. And the loading platform an almost perfectly flat, and the volume is greater than almost tripled.
For 2020 Peugeot 308 SW offered a solid enough equipment in the base version.
- multiple airbags
- multimedia display of 9.7 inches
- climate control
- electric windows on all side windows
- sports seats
- a set of security systems, including ABS and ESP, and so forth.
The list goes on and on, exactly like the options list of options. Nevertheless, several major options available for a fee:
- dual-zone climate control
- adaptive cruise control
- Rear View Camera
- parktronic
- Assist parking
- for road signs Tracking System
- for crossing lanes tracking system
- the blind zones tracking system
- electric hand brake and so on.
As you can imagine, complete with wagon perfectly. Not necessarily take additional option, since they are likely not required, and those that equip the vehicle as desired. While everyone is free to choose the set of equipment that are considered necessary for their vehicle.
Of course, because the presentation was held in April, the European price lists were announced.
It is already known that the wagon production is established on the basis of capacity of the plant, located in the town of Sochaux, in France. In Europe, in the networks of authorized dealers 2020 Peugeot 308 SW is available now at a price of 23,500 euros. Of course, the price for the Russian market will be slightly higher, taking into account the need for delivery, customs clearance and other formalities that one way or another affect the pricing.
In terms of technical characteristics of the car is consistent with their appearance. No, it is not charged sport wagon, although 2020 Peugeot would not have been superfluous to release at least a limited version of the 2020 Peugeot 308 SW – year with a really powerful engine, as do many other manufacturers.
One way or another, to create a model using the new platform, which will allow the car to lose almost one hundred and fifty kilograms compared with the previous generation wagon. At the same time the body became stiffer and more reliable.
Acceptance and the fact that under the hood of the new items are located both gasoline and diesel engines, get more power than in hatchback.
- The first engine runs on gasoline and has two versions. With the volume of 1.2 liter and three cylinders, the engine can produce 110 and 130 horsepower.
- The second petrol engine is already four and 1.6-liter. Available in two versions – with 125 and 155 horsepower.
- Diesel, again, again made in two versions. This four-cylinder engine of 1.6 liters, which is capable of a 120 or 150 hp depending on the degree of pressurization. Also note that the level of the exhaust of diesel engines comply with very strict requirements and standards Euro 6. Costs are about 3.7-4 liters of fuel on the combined cycle.
Presented engines can be equipped with one of three transmissions. The choice offers customers five and six-speed manual gearbox, as well as a six-speed automatic.
Well, we introduced you to a very interesting in all respects, the versatile French production, examined its merits, drawbacks, discussed the technical specifications and a number of other factors. As a result, we can draw certain conclusions.
Yes, the owners of the reviews give a more objective assessment, but deny our view that the 2020 Peugeot 308 SW has turned out stylish, modern and incredibly attractive does not make sense. Plus pretty good technical equipment, a spacious interior and a huge trunk and obviously make the purchase of the 2020 Peugeot 308 SW – year, one of the highest priority at the current station wagon market. Of course, the choice is always yours.

Between fires, floods and mudslides it seems like we have been continuously in disaster mode around here. Hopefully by now everyone is prepared with what they need in case of a local disaster. We've learned a lot of lessons over the past couple of years, that's for sure.
During the height of the recent floods, one of our staff had to be rescued and boated out of his rental house. Good employee that he is, all he grabbed was some clothes and the crate of foster kittens he had at home. Fortunately, since his bedroom was on the second floor, chances are his personal items will not be damaged. Whether or not the house will be inhabitable with the moisture and possible mold issues is still unknown. It will be a major clean-up at the least. To add insult to injury, just before he was evacuated he got skunked! A skunk had sought refuge on the porch and when the employee stepped outside and startled him, he got an unwanted present. A lot to cope with in one day!
We all really need to have two disaster plans. One is if there is an earthquake or flood and you are locked in place for a few days. Everyone should have stashed (in a waterproof kit of some kind) enough water and food and other basic necessities for each person, and pet, in your home to survive for at least three days. Authorities figure in a major disaster you should be prepared to take care of yourself for up to five days before rescue could happen. That means a basic first aid kit, a change of clothes, a blanket, flashlight and perhaps a battery-powered radio. There are workshops and classes you can take that help you learn what to do in an emergency. You can look up lists of suggested items to include in your kit, and classes offered, on the Red Cross website and other disaster agencies sites.
The second plan you should have is what would you grab if you had just a few minutes to pack and evacuate. Do you know where your pet's crate is? Your dog's leash? Realize that outside of your immediate area life is going on as usual and stores are not affected so there's no need to grab toiletries or food. Instead what you may want to save are things of personal sentiment and value. After getting people and animals out, probably the next things would be photo albums and the computer (forget the monitor). Maybe some heirloom jewelry or artwork (if you had time to pack a car). What would you want saved? Make sure everyone knows so that it's more likely to get grabbed.
The funniest picture from the fires last year, I thought, was the car packed with toilet paper and food. The house burned and everything was lost but thank goodness they got the TP out! Now in an earthquake, that is the lady I want to know! She was well supplied. There is still more rain predicted so we may not be out of the woods yet, and after that you may have to worry about the stability of the ground, especially if your home backs up to any kind of hill. Mudslides are often an issue and even more so in burn areas since there is nothing to hold the soil in place.
Point being, if you haven't prepared your emergency plan and kit yet – do it, now! With one disaster after another we should be the best prepared people around. There's no excuse for being caught unaware. And, of course, make sure your pets are included in both your plans!

North Carolina's Biotechnology Investment Tops Billion-Dollar Mark; Battelle Study Quantifies Economic Dividends and Jobs
North Carolina has invested more than $1 billion in its expanding biotechnology enterprise during the past 10 years, and the annual economic impact exceeds $45 billion, according to data released today at the North Carolina Biotechnology Center.
Norris Tolson, president and CEO of the Biotechnology Center, and leaders from the government, education and academic institutions that made those investments spoke at a news conference Thursday about the significance of the investment in building a foundation for future growth.
"Smart, steady investment in biotechnology has created a major economic engine in North Carolina," says Tolson. "This technology will help us meet the major global needs of the future -- health care, energy and food. But it also brings tangible benefits to North Carolinians in the form of jobs, and the potential is there for many more."
The success of the biotechnology industry and the statewide partnerships that support it were verified by the findings of an economic-impact study from the Battelle Memorial Institute's Technology Partnership Practice.
Battelle's Simon Tripp, who led the study, discussed quantitative and qualitative data on the benefits derived from North Carolina's unique 24-year history in bioscience investment. The 133-page report included research data as well as survey information from biotech stakeholders and CEOs of affiliated companies around the state.
"In the 21st century, which many have termed the Biocentury, biotechnology is expected to be a key engine of economic growth in the United States," says the executive summary of the study, Evidence and Opportunity -- Biotechnology Impacts in North Carolina. "Battelle's analysis finds that North Carolina is extremely well-positioned to experience substantial further growth and development from biotechnology."
Concurrent with the Battelle report, Biotechnology Center personnel and colleagues at partner institutions and organizations established that in just the past decade, North Carolina has committed more than $1.2 billion to bioscience funding via:
- $857 million in research and facilities;
- $135 million toward workforce training;
- $115 million to the North Carolina Biotechnology Center; and
- $102 million in direct company incentives.
These investments support an industry that, as measured by the Battelle study, directly contributes $28.7 billion annually to the state's economy and creates 53,200 jobs. The total impact climbs to $45.8 billion and 180,007 jobs when all spending by those companies and their employees, termed indirect and induced impacts, are counted.
The Battelle analysis lauded the North Carolina Biotechnology Center, saying it "has clearly generated a comprehensive and well thought-out series of programs and initiatives that support every link in this development chain."
Tripp says the Battelle study found that companies that receive financial assistance from the Biotechnology Center return $26.8 million a year in state taxes alone. These companies have attracted $99 in additional external funding for every dollar loaned to them by the Center.
Faculty recruitment grants from the Biotechnology Center have drawn 52 high-profile bioscience faculty to the state's universities. Those researchers have brought in $363 million in external funds from sources such as the National Institutes of Health -- a 37-to-one leverage.

Hot off the press!
SC Appleseed Legal Justice Center will host a series of three public forums around the state in response to the foreclosure crisis. Check the flyer below for more information.
You may have noticed that a couple of recent posts below reference the home foreclosure crisis. With the growing number of foreclosures in South Carolina and across the United States it is no wonder the housing market is such a hot topic.
One of the links referenced below is a story from NPR: Lawyers Make Pro Bono Leap into Foreclosures. It is the story of a man named Mirkab. Mirkab is a hard working man who ended up with two homes because just as his family purchased a new home and attempted to sell their old home, the market began to crash and they were unable to sell their second home. Like many other hardworking Americans, Mirkab is trying as hard as he can to keep his finances in good standing, but battling with the mortgage lenders on his own was getting him nowhere. The story highlights the generosity of lawyers who have responded to the mortgage crisis by doing pro bono work for clients like Mirkab. With so many families in the same position as Mirkab's family, we need even more lawyers to step up and take these cases.
According to the National League of Cities 1 in every 374 housing units were part of a foreclosure filing in April 2009. Due to this insurmountable number, pro bono lawyers willing to tackle the mortgage crisis are desperately needed. For attorneys who do not specialize in this area of law the learning curve is steep, so a number of organizations across the country are finding ways to make it easier for attorneys to step up and take on these cases. At probono.net there are resources for attorneys interested in these pro bono cases including templates for legal documents and links to state specific resources. The Pro Bono Institute reports that legal service programs are typically the only access to the legal system that the poor and those of modest means have. Foreclosure cases are swamping their work load and pro bono help is needed to share the responsibility.
The Center for Responsible Lending created the Institute for Foreclosure Legal Assistance that awards grants to non-profits and legal aid offices that with adequate resources can help those suffering from the housing crisis. The grants range from 250,000 to 300,000 and are dispersed over a 3 year period.
The housing crisis hits close to home for many South Carolinians. The Post and Courier in Charleston, SC ran an article in February telling how Family Services, Inc. was awarded $1.7 million from the National Foreclosure Mitigation Council. Recipients of the monies included Appleseed, South Carolina Legal Services and Charleston Pro Bono Services. These programs and this type of funding certainly help to put a dent in the aid needed, but there is much more required if individuals are going to get the legal help they need.
As Robin posted below, the South Carolina Supreme Court lifted the TRO on foreclosures as of Friday. The Order lifting the TRO lays out specific steps that must be followed and items that must be included within the court documents to determine whether an individual mortgage qualifies for President Obama's Home Affordable Modification Program. The need for attorneys who are knowledgeable about the recent legislation and court orders dealing with the mortgage crisis as well as South Carolina Foreclosure law to take on these pro bono cases is great. Thank you for all of those working so hard to work within the legal system to find solutions for those struggling with a home foreclosure.
Thousands line up to meet with Neighborhood Assistance Corporation of America (NACA) counselors to discuss their mortgages and keep their homes. According to an article in the Columbia Regional Business Report (CRBR), more than 10,000 people participated in the first three days of the Save the Dream event. NACA's role is to work with homeowners and lenders to stave off foreclosures; often by reducing mortgage rates.
U.S. House Majority Whip James Clyburn was instrumental in bringing the group to Columbia. According to the CRBR report, Rep. Clyburn noted that "homeownership is the most widespread access to wealth in this country."
According to an article in The State, 202 counselors were on hand to evaluate each homeowner's situation; which averaged 45 minutes per case.
Even though the special event ends today, NACA will continue its work in South Carolina at its offices in Columbia and Charleston as well as its nearby offices in Augusta, Georgia and Charlotte, North Carolina.
If you are a homeowner and have questions, click here or call toll-free 1-888-302-NACA. Information is also available in Spanish here. (Español aquí)

Good evening!
I don't often write on a Friday night because I'm usually out and about or visiting my mom.
Tonight I am at my mom's and brought my runners. She owns a treadmill… I ran!
I ran 5km straight tonight at a range of 4-6miles per hour. Mostly stayed at 5.5 but slowed down and sped up occasionally. This treadmill only shows miles per hour and time… this treadmill also stopped on me… I think I was at 4 km and it just shut off… Kind of scary. So I didn't quite run the entire 5 km nonstop since I stopped for about 30 seconds puzzled and trying to turn the thing back on as soon as possible. And back at it I went… 5 kilometers down. I walked and jogged a little bit after, but I don't think my iPod captured it all.. The treadmill stopped twice after that. The third time I just got frustrated and stopped. It's a scary feeling when you're going at it and the whole thing just shuts off.
Anyways, the point is, I did 5 km straight. The question now is, why can I do this on a machine and not when I'm outside? I know on the treadmill it felt like I just couldn't stop… I need to transfer these thoughts to the outdoors….
Oh, I almost forgot the most important part, according to my iPod, I ran 5 km in 31 minutes at a pace of 6 minutes and 9 seconds per km!!!! A quick reminder, I'm aiming to run 5K in September in under 30 minutes.
I wish I could sync my iPod but my mom doesn't have internet… I can't wait to see all the stats at the end of the weekend when I go home.
As I posted yesterday, I have about 20k left in 5 days. Now I have 15 k left for the next 4 days. That is doable!
I am very happy to be running again. 🙂
I hope you all have a wonderful Friday night and enjoy the weekend!

For over ten years now, Fioravanti has never missed participating at the European motor event with its concepts. This year, Fioravanti will be showcasing two concepts at the Geneva Motor Show called the LF1 and the TRIS.
LF1 is totally new, while the TRIS is a new interpretation of an old concept. The Fioravanti LF1, derived mainly from Formula 1 design principles appears like a race car.
The concept is an effort to bridge the chasm between F1 research and production cars. From the looks of it though, the car is not suited for the road.
Details have not been released, but expect more details during the Geneva event. The TRIS, which made its introduction back in 2000 is Fioravanti's second concept presentation at the upcoming Geneva show.
It is a three-door diminutive which introduces a new method of low-cost vehicle design via a simplified project chain. Procedures, such as engineering, tooling, production and assembly have all received radical cost reduction measures. This concept is demonstrated in the fact that the doors of the TRIS are exactly the same as well as the headlights and taillights.
The materials used to build the TRIS back in 2009 are all recycled materials the builder claims. The resurrection of the TRIS may point to the fact that it may be what is really needed at such an economically challenged auto industry as what we have at present. The company, which is based near Turin, Italy, was started by Leonardo Fioravanti in 1987.

My favorite holiday is Thanksgiving, because it's a great way to see family. My Thanksgiving is special because of my awesome family. My grandpa is the oldest boy of 13, so over 100 people come every year. No one is a only child, which makes it even bigger. Since it's so big there are some interesting people in the mix. Three of my cousins are pro athletes, one got eighth place in the long distance for the Olympics. My great grandma died two years ago, since then people have stopped coming. I am very worried that my family might stop doing this, I'm not that worried because it's everybody else's favorite holiday too. Last year it was the 70th anniversary and we were on the news. This is my favorite holiday not only because of whats above but just the idea of getting together to celebrate and give thanks.
