Panshanger invites votes of support
Fill in a quick form before Monday 24 October to show support for the Council's plan to keep and reopen the aerodrome.
The North London Flying Club (NLFC) has sent out an urgent appeal concerning the future of Panshanger Aerodrome, in Welwyn Garden City.
Panshanger closed in 2014 as the owners sought to transform the site into housing. Although initially in favour of this move, the Borough Council has recently decided that developers can only build houses if a section of the land remains as an aerodrome.
That's where you come in – show your support of the Council's plan and demonstrate the enthusiasm of the local and GA communities to see Panshanger open once more by commenting on the Consultation page. It will only take a few minutes to complete (there is a step-by-step guide below).
The deadline for your submission is MONDAY 24 OCTOBER.
Join the voices already calling for Panshanger to be reopened, including Colin Fitch of Predator Motorsport & Aero. He described the aerodrome as a "wonderful place of inspiration, aspiration, warmth, a welcoming and relaxing environment, which brought a very special combination of fun and adventure as well as uncompromising excellence in aviation to our town".
"It was a place where anyone could pursue the dream of flight."
To add your support, Sue Hart of the NLFC has provided steps on how to submit your comments:
1. Go to the Welhat Consultation page: http://consult.welhat.gov.uk/portal
2. Register, verify your account and log in
3. Click on the fourth line down: Draft local plan policies and maps; and open
4. Click View/Comment
5. Next page: Part B: 1. No.4 – Click (YES)
2. No. 5 – Click (YES)
3. No. 7 – Click (NO)
4. No. 9 – tick all three
5. Feedback form – (YES)
6. We monitor? – (YES)
7. In the last box, cut and paste the letter below, or write your own:
Dear Sir,
As a citizen in the Welwyn and Hatfield Borough, I am delighted that our councillors on the CHPP Committee have made the important decision to include Panshanger Aerodrome as part of our local plan. I support the decision of Welwyn and Hatfield Borough Council to reinstate the aerodrome. I believe this would be an asset to the Borough by creating a great mixed-use opportunity of an aerodrome with learning and sports activities in flying, as well as creating much needed jobs and investment in the local community with the related engineering and development aspects. I know that a local businessman has put a plan forward which incorporates all these things. I support his vision for the future of the aerodrome. This action shows that the Council are considering the local community and the creation of jobs in the local community as well as gaining housing. This shows initiative on the Council's part and I give it my whole hearted support.
Thank you for arranging the public consultation.
Yours faithfully
Then click OK to submit.
Once you've filled out the form, let Sue know via email – [email protected] – to make sure your vote is counted, and then share with friends and fellow flyers."We would be really grateful of your support to reopen an airfield that gave so much to the aviation community and can be a hub for aviation activity in the future to keep GA alive," said Sue.
Show your support for Panshanger now!
Registration didn't take long and the instructions were simple to follow.
One needs to be careful to only comment "As a citizen in the Welwyn and Hatfield Borough" if this is in fact true. In my case it is not but I commented anyway. I also amended the suggest response above by adding something about supporting the national flying infrastructure. It's an important point as far as central government is concerned, as far as I am aware.
Anyway, it would be good if Panshanger came back to life…
It may be worth noting that in the UK, anybody anywhere can support, or object to, a planning application. You don't have to live locally.
Not sure if that is relevant in this case…
Yes Panshanger was a nice location. It would be great to get it back.

MEU introduces "Sneezebee" for Bee in the City 2018
- On 23rd July 2018
We're delighted to be supporting Bee in the City, a spectacular public art event taking place from July –September this summer in association with Manchester City Council and Wild in Art. Over eighty individually designed, super-sized bee sculptures are winging their way to Manchester to form a world-class, free art trail across the city's streets, parks and public spaces.
The event's 3-D Bee sculpture has been inspired by Manchester's iconic worker bee which has been part of the city's heraldry for over 150 years and is synonymous with the city's pioneering and industrious spirit. Bee in the City will bring together the business and creative sectors with local schools and communities to celebrate Manchester's heritage and showcase its diverse cultural offer and artistic talent.
All bees have been designed by regional artists, and we have chosen a design by artist Pam Smart featuring enlarged pollen grains which we thought was a great fit given our links to allergy and respiratory research. We have named our Bee "Sneezebee" and the design was painted by Lizzie Rose Chapman and Michelle Turton.
When the trail begins on 23rd July, Manchester residents and visitors will be able to explore the trail using a 'Bee in the City' app which will help them navigate around the city, discover new places and follow a map of the bees, receiving 'rewards' and prizes as they go along!
We will be offering locally-produced pots of honey to the first 100 visitors to unlock our 'reward' and free colouring-in pollen sheets are available to be downloaded & printed off on our website – collect your free colouring pencils at our reception to start decorating your own pollen grains and share with us on Facebook, Twitter & Instagram with the hashtag #sneezebee.
At the end of the trail on 23rd September, the majority of Bees will be auctioned off to raise significant funds for The Lord Mayor of Manchester's We Love MCR Charity to improve the lives of Manchester residents and help them reach their full potential.
However, as our Bee is part of the community programme, the sculpture will remain out of the auction and will be kept at the MEU as a legacy, remaining a landmark for visitors, volunteers and patients.
You can see the design's progress on our recently- launched Instagram page. Please follow us on there, as well as on Facebook and Twitter!
Visit our volunteer website to read more about the project, discover more pictures of Sneezebee and download colouring-in sheets.

Petition launched against rules over lunch and mobile phones at high school in Ipswich
PUBLISHED: 12:23 09 September 2019 | UPDATED: 12:24 09 September 2019
A petition has been launched over new arrangements over where students can eat and use mobile phones at break and lunch at Copleston High School in Ipswich.
Organisers claim students can now only eat in the main hall and canteen. They say that, in a school with 1,700 students, there is not enough space and many are being left to eat outside.
The petition, which has so far received more than 180 signatures, is also calling for a rethink over a decision not to allow mobile phone use indoors.
But the school says indoor spaces have been allocated for students to eat - and has also defended its decision only to allow phone use outside at breaks and lunchtimes as a "fair compromise".
The anonymous petition posted on the change.org site, headlined "We deserve to eat inside", says: "The only places indoors students can now eat lunch are the main hall and canteen, which can fit a year group at the maximum and even at this capacity it is still crowded and busy."
It says many students at the school are either eating outside or just not eating at all.
The petition adds: "Students deserve the right to eat and socialise indoors, as well as using mobile phones during break and lunch in year-specific rooms, as this is a way students socialise and play games within friend groups.
"Taking away the ability to use phones inside the building means students will simply be outside in the cold or rain just to use phones to either text parents or listen to music."
You may also want to watch:
One mother who has signed the petition, Elaine Abbott, left a comment saying: "My son is a Copleston student and I don't want him stuck outside, not having eaten. It's ridiculous."
Another, Leanne Stoker, commented: "My kids go there and it's not right to eat in the cold outside, or kids to not eat at all because they have nowhere to sit."
And Lindsay Lucas said: "There should be facilities within the school to cater for all students to eat their lunch and socialise. I certainly wouldn't be happy if my children had to be outside whatever the weather."
'We feel we have reached a fair compromise'
Principal Andrew Green said in a statement: "At the start of a new academic year, we have taken the opportunity to clarify to our students and parents where students can eat/drink and use their mobile phones.
"Our Mobile Phone Policy clearly states that students have the opportunity to use mobile phones outside of the building at either break or lunchtime.
"However, students are not permitted to use their mobile phones inside the building, and we operate a policy of 'on site, out of sight' when students are inside the building.
"We have not taken the strict measure of some schools of stating that mobile phones are not to be seen in school at all, and by allowing students to use them outside at break and lunchtime, feel we have reached a fair compromise.
"We have allocated areas within the building for our students to eat and drink at break and lunchtimes. These areas are designated areas with furniture set out so that our students can eat and drink in comfort and socialise with their friends.
"However, after much consideration, we have decided that students should not be eating in classrooms, because these are learning spaces and we want these environments to be comfortable and clean for the high quality learning we consistently deliver on a daily basis."

Wanstead girls school celebrates 100th birthday
PUBLISHED: 12:30 13 June 2018
Ellie Hoskins +44(0)7743306087 www.elliehoskins.com
Children enjoyed a picnic in the sunshine in a big marquee outside the school along with activities including a magician, drama and creative workshops and a steel band.
A Wanstead girls school celebrated 100 years since it opened with a garden party and picnic.
St. Joseph's Convent School for Girls in Cambridge Park was founded by the Sisters of Mercy in 1918 and on Friday (June 8) it hosted a party to celebrate its 100th birthday.
Children enjoyed a picnic in the sunshine in a big marquee outside the school along with activities including a magician, drama and creative workshops and a steel band.
This was one of a number of ways that the school are celebrating 100 years since it was founded, with other events including a special mass, a centenary disco and a summer fair.
Bishop Alan presided over the celebratory mass before the children were taken outside to enjoy sandwiches and sushine at the tea party - which was organised by the Parents Association.
The Sisters of Mercy's are members of a religious institute of Catholic women founded in 1831 in Dublin, Ireland by Catherine McAuley.
Their mission was to provide an excellent education for young girls, in keeping with Venerable Catherine McAuley's vision and inspiration.
Venerable Catherine McAuley was the foundress of the Sisters of Mercy.
Her aspiration was to educate girls so they could reach their full academic potential and to be confident, safe and happy.
The vision was to structure an outstanding learning environment, whereby girls could enjoy personal, intellectual and religious development through education and personal life-long learning.
Headteacher, Miss Christine Glover told the Recorder: "It was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate all our fantastic achievements so far, and a chance to look forward to the future.
"We had a lot of fun, and it was a lovely way to celebrate such a big milestone in the school's history.
"All of the teachers and staff at the school were extremely proud of all the children that took part and I hope that they all had a wonderful day."

The Powder Coat Process at Nature Rails
Watch how powder coat is applied to steel and aluminum NatureRails products for long-lasting protection from weather. All of our products are powder coated for low maintenance. Lasts longer than any paint! Powder coating is available in a variety of colors and textures, although by far black is still the most popular. Black is simple to touch up in the event of a scratch. After the powder coating is applied to the metal, it is baked on a large oven, turning the colored powder into a baked on enamel type finish. This allows for color as well as texture unlike a paint.

Ronnie Barker has died
Hold up! Before you read on, please read this...
This post was published more than 14 years ago
I keep old posts on the site because I often enjoy reading old content on other people's sites. It can be interesting to see how views have changed over time: for example, how my strident teenage views have, to put it mildly, mellowed.
I'm not a believer in brushing the past under the carpet. I've written some offensive rubbish on here in the past: deleting it and pretending it never happened doesn't change that. I hope that stumbling across something that's 14 years old won't offend anyone anew, because I hope that people can understand that what I thought and felt and wrote about then is probably very different to what I think and feel and write about now. It's a relic of an (albeit recent) bygone era.
So, given the age of this post, please bear in mind:
- My views may well have changed in the last 14 years. I have written some very silly things over the years, many of which I find utterly cringeworthy today.
- This post might use words or language in ways which I would now consider highly inappropriate, offensive, embarrassing, or all three.
- Factual information might be outdated.
- Links might be broken, and embedded material might not appear properly.
Okay. Consider yourself duly warned. Read on...
Ronnie Barker, one of my favourite comedians, has died aged 76. There's full obituaries over at the BBC site, but I thought a much more fitting tribute would be to share one of my favourite Barker monologues… Pismronunciation.
"Good evening. I am the president of the Loyal Society for the Relief of Suffers from Pismronunciation, for the relief of people who can't say their worms correctly, or who use the wrong worms entirely, so that other people cannot underhand a bird they are spraying. It's just that you open your mouse, and the worms come turbling out in wuck a say that you dick not what you're thugging to be, and it's very distressing.
"I'm always looing it, and it makes one feel umbumftorcacle, especially when one is going about one's diddly tasks. Slopping at the Sloopermarket, for instance. Only last wonk, I approached the chuckout point, and I shooed the ghoul behind the crash desk the contents of my trilly, and she said 'All right, granddad, shout 'em out.' Well, of course, that's fine for the ordinary man in the stoat who has no dribble with his wolds. For someone like myself, it's worse than a kick in the jackstrop.
"Sometimes, you get stuck on one letter, such as wubbleyou. And I said, 'Well, I've got a tin of woup, a woucumber, two packets of wheese and a walliflower'. She tried to make fun of me and said, 'That will be woo pounds, wifty-wee pence.' So I just said 'Wobblers!' and walked out.
"So you see how dickyfelt it is. But help is at hand. A new society has been formed by our mumblers to help each other in times of excream ices. It is balled Pismronouncers Unanimous, and anyone can ball them up on the smellyphone any time of the day or note, twenty-four flowers a spray, seven stays a creek, and they will come 'round and get drunk with you.
"For foreigners, there will be inperpetwitters, who will all speak many sandwiches, such as Swedish, Turkish, Burkish, Jewish, Gibberish and Rubbish. Membranes will be able to attend tight stool, for heaving classes, to learn how to grope with the many complinkities of the daily loaf.
"Which brings me to the drain reason for squeaking to you tonight. The society's first function as a body was a grand garden freight, and we hope for many more bodily functions in the future. The garden plate was held in the grounds of Blennham Paleyass, Woodstick, and the guest of horror was the great American pip singer, Manny Barrellow. The fete was opened by the bleeder of the opposition, Mister Dale Pinnock … Pillock, who gave us a few well-frozen worms in praise of the society's jerk. He said that 'In the creeks and stunts that lie ahead, we must do out nut roast to ensure that it sucks weeds.' "And everyone visited the various stores and abrusements, the rudeabouts, thing boats and the dodgers, and of course, all the old favorites such as Srty your Length, guessing the weight of the cook and tinning the pale on the wonky. The occasion was great fun, and I think it can safely be said that all the men present and thoroughly good women were had all the time.
"So, please join out society. Write to me, Doctor Small Pith, The Spanner, Poke Moses, and I will send you some brieflets to browse through and a brass badge to wear in your loophole."
Thanks to MediaGuardian for the transcript.
Ronnie will be sadly missed.

My name is Beth. I'm a closet Christian.
I come out every December with the lights, garlands and rusty ornament hangers.
Immune to disdain from observant friends and relatives on both sides of the aisle, I plead nolo contendere.
While others are still picking at turkey carcasses, I'm aging 80-proof eggnog worthy of a Hallelujah Chorus. Candy-cane earrings in place, yule log crackling in the woodstove, I am among the first to fa-la-la-la-la.
My seasonal aberration surfaced early. As my cousins lighted menorahs and hoarded foil-covered gelt, I hung tinsel — one strand at a time. My Jewish friends sang, "Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel." But I had trouble carrying that tune. I found comfort and joy caroling with my Christian friends on the street corners of our town. Today I wail, "Fall on your knees," as I pick mistletoe berries from the oriental rug.
Each December my dad, brother and I would make the rounds in search of the perfect spruce. No spindly Charlie Brown tree for us. No sirree! We had strict standards and spent hours judging trees from every angle, even the side earmarked for the corner. I lived for those annual pilgrimages, my breath a contrail in the frosty air, thick smoke curling from oil-drum fires.
Every year my mother would greet us with hot cocoa and kvetch that we had spent too much money on a sap-dripping, needle-shedding symbol not our own.
On Christmas Eve during my teen years the house became a haven for friends who, after choking on overdone roast beef and dogma, would stop by to fress our holiday nosh of corned beef and rugelach, listen to Sinatra croon, "I'll be home for Christmas" and play with my younger brother's toys.
Several Christmases later my groom, raised in a more catholic Jewish household, was unamused when he tripped over the eight-foot spruce blocking the TV in our shoebox apartment. To maintain peace at home as well as on Earth, I purchased a menorah and bloodied my knuckles grating potatoes for latkes.
As a young mother I overcompensated for my wayward youth. I ix-nayed the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, clove-studded oranges and twinkling lights and, every 25th day of Kislev, immersed myself in Hanukkah.
A minor holiday on the Judaic calendar, Hanukkah is to Christmas what grape juice is to Veuve Cliquot. But I persevered. We would gather on the first night over brisket and, in the true spirit of the holiday, exchange small, meaningful gifts such as bath salts and shoelaces. These tokens reflected the miracle of the oil as T.M.X. Elmo does the birth of Jesus.
As the children grew we compromised, lighting candles at Hanukkah and exchanging presents on Dec. 25. I filled vases with evergreen boughs so the house would at least smell like Christmas.
Now, decades later, we gather for brunch on Christmas morning and exchange gifts over bagels and buche de Noel.
I gaze lovingly at my rainbow family: My daughter and son who, despite their meshuga upbringing, emerged as responsible adults; my West Indian son-in-law who celebrated the holiday with a dozen siblings and a pig roasting in the yard; my daughter-in-law whose family exchanged gifts before midnight Mass so they could sleep until noon on the 25th; and my four heathen, ecumenically correct grandchildren, who are the greatest joys of any season.
I watch them take turns spinning the dreidel between mouthfuls of homemade Christmas cookies. And I can't help thinking, isn't this the true spirit of Christmas?

Nikki's Game
Israfil is a Priest and Inquisitor for Pharasma. Her face is graced with the birthmark in the shape of Pharasma's symbol. Her platinum white hair frames her face and is braided back, ready for battle. Her violet eyes flare in anger at the sight of the undead and her violet-charcoal skin hosts many battle scars from her life of hunting. Pharasma's avatar has told her she had Drow heritage. She holds her religious tasks very close to her heart. She wants to make sure the abominations do not hamper mortal life, since she knows that Pharasma hates the undead. She was raised in a Spartan style monastery of Pharasman priests who were tasked with creating a sacred group of undead hunters, called the 24, and later released without a path to follow. She feels she has to atone for her part in misplaced justice. She has never had friends, until recently... only brothers and sisters of the 24 who hunted the monsters with her. She is now learning how to deal with those who do not have her austere outlooks and those who do not have black and white viewpoints.

Birthing a child is painful. Birthing a teenager is more so.
I believe in natural childbirth. I do not personally find the avoidance of pain worth the risks (no matter how remote) of an epidural. I also believe that the process typically has fewer complications and a swifter and smoother outcome when the mother stays directly involved and can feel what is going on.
I'm ready for an epidural now though. I no longer wish to feel the pain of raising a teenager. I still believe the outcome is better if the mother stays involved, but I want the relief of pain avoidance. I want a block between me and her harsh words. I want to withdraw.
Yesterday was the last day of school. My husband opened the boys' bedroom door that morning and cheerfully announced as much. On impulse, forgetting months of experience, I attempted the same with our daughter.
She didn't blow up at me. At least, she didn't until I forgot to close the door as I walked away. Then she angrily and loudly yelled, "Will you please shut the door MOTHER?!" Her incredulity at my thoughtlessness was remarkable and I found myself shutting the door with too much force and then fighting back tears as I stumbled into the boys' room to wish them a good morning.
See, that door haunts me. It is always closed. I would love to take it off the hinges. It's not that I reject the notion of her having privacy. It's that she has to have that privacy 24-7. The door is never open if she is in her room. In fact, the door to any room that can be shut off from the rest of the house will be closed if she is in there.
The door is a physical representation of the emotional distance she has put between herself and the rest of the family. I recognize that this is a fairly normal part of passing through the teenage years. That doesn't mean I accept it easily.
She tried to indignantly claim from behind the door that morning that she was naked except for her underwear. That, she believed, was sufficient justification for the door being closed, despite the fact that she was still wrapped in her sheets. Despite the fact that she regularly walks the house in nothing but her underwear. It was not accepted as valid justification. Nor was her tone or attitude acceptable, as her father attempted to explain to her.
I did not leave the door open out of spite. It was not a passive aggressive response to it always being closed. It was not deliberate. It's just hard to remember that while no other door is routinely used, that one must be. When our bedroom door opens in the morning, it stays open until we retire again that night. The same is true for the boys' door. I think that by my action, I was greeting her and then subconsciously inviting her to join the family.
"We knew this wasn't going to be easy," my husband said when I expressed my frustration. "But it will pass."
It's getting harder to resist the spinal block that is available if I just withdraw and don't interact with her. Such withdrawal is probably just a fantasy anyway since we live in the same house. And she's not always so difficult. Sometimes, the contractions ease and I have a blissful bit of time that is so peaceful and magical, a time that is perhaps magnified in its perfection because of the memory of pain. But then the next wave hits and I'm thrown back into the chaos of surviving, forgetting the peace in between.
I've learned to accept the mild pain reliever injected in my IV at various times as I struggle with this process. When I entered the boys' room after shutting her door, the pain on my face must have been clear. The continued shouting from the next room definitely was. My middle child sat up in his bed and with complete sincerity and a soft,gentle tone, said, "I love you Mommy." He then reached over the edge of the top bunk and embraced me, holding on until I was ready to let go.
There are great pains in raising children. But there are great joys too. I can't responsibly avoid the pain so I will have to hope instead that the joys can anesthetize me enough to still consider it all worth while.

To write a "How to" article, you have to be talented in something. And finally the most difficult thing in this mission, is not to "write" but to find your "special field".
Indeed, I'm just a desastrous cooker, I can't help you to realize a clafoutis or other stuffs like that. I'm a pathetic geek; I just know "How to start my computer" (and it is not substantial enough to write a post). Two things where I'm really strong at are: to do a brushing, and to file papers of Social Security. Whaoaaoaoa!!! Exciting!
So, to have ideas for this post I had a glimpse to www.ehow.com, and my life has changed! I have written my article, and now I know "How to make a Sarah Palin Halloween costume", "How to be comic" or "How to handknit with your dog's hairs". Great.

Since being diagnosed I do things I wouldn't have done before diagnostic, for example D of E, and this is because I want to prove T1D doesn't stop you, I inspire myself when I achieve something new. ~ Amy
Here you'll discover the many things that inspire people of all ages to live life to the full with type 1 diabetes. Plus there's inspiraT1on from parents, grandparents and friends of people with type 1.
Want to share what motivates you every day? Share your inspiration below. Or if you're in need of a little inspiraT1on right now, start exploring…
Since being diagnosed I do things I wouldn't have done before diagnostic, for example D of E, and this is because I want to prove T1D doesn't stop you, I inspire myself when I achieve something new. ~ Amy
I've lived with Type 1 Diabetes for nearly 19 years, I've represented my country in Futsal, been paid to play Football as a semi-professional and set up a peer support community for people with Diabetes interested in Football. I'd say that Diabetes gave me the extra motivation to do all of these things and has actually given me friends for life as I competed in a team of all type 1 Diabetics representing the UK (DiaEuro). Don't let it define you! ~ Chris
Hanna diagnosed at three, five years go. Pumping for 4.5 years now. Never stops smiling. Take the stride into her hands. Love swimming and holidays. T1D never stop her to do what she likes...... never give up the cure is waiting. The world is full of your dreams and great things are waiting for you. My daughter my inspiration. Always and forever. ~Graznya
I was diagnosed in 1977, aged 4. I've looked after myself so when a cure is delivered I am in the best health to enjoy it. I'm no saint. I live life to the full but for every day off I have 100 where I am all over my numbers. ~ Sam
He inspires me to look up at the light when I'm stuck in the darkness.
When I look at him, I see how far our family has come. I see everything we have gotten through. I see all the times we've pushed on even when we thought we couldn't. We have got through it all because of him and his bravery and strength.
Every day might not be good, but he reminds me that there's something good in every day.
Life is tough my darling boy, but so are you! ~ Michelle
My sister inspires me to be strong when I am met with adversity. As a big sister, the hardest thing for me was knowing that there was nothing I could do to take it all away and make it all better. What I can do is support her and fight for T1 diabetics to be recognized in society without judgement, so I created a page advocating for T1D for my Girl Scout Gold Award. You can check it out on Facebook or Instagram by searching Our Best Shot. Thanks! ~ Lindsey

Over the last couple of days Floyd "Money" Mayweather has been posting videos teasing MMA fans worldwide. It seems like he's toying with all of us. There's no way he's actually going to step foot in octagon, right? I for one hope he does. Just so somebody can kick him in his smug head. Like McGregor said " have you ever felt shin bone crack off someone's cheek?" I mean he's posted a video walking into on octagon. Not much hype behind it. But the next day he posted another video saying " 2018. Floyd Money Mayweather. MMA. What are the odds?" While rubbing his hands in the middle of the octagon. Here's the video below.
He might be able to out strike some bum who has one professional fight under his belt. A guy with no ground game, no BJJ experience, no wrestling background. You know, CM Punk… would it be possible that the UFC is lining this up? Dana White has gone on record saying he wants to give Punk another shot because he's such a nice guy. Mayweather always draws a crowd. It would be another cash grab of a fight. Cough cough Mayweather/McGregor.. but I don't see this happening. He's not going to fight an established guy. He would be sick in the head if stepped in there with McGregor. He would literally get knocked on his ass in six seconds. I'm sure it's just all hype to get people talking. Time will tell. I know Mayweather is in his 40s and can't read still but he can't be that stupid to attempt to get into a MMA fight. But we shall see.

The meaning of Abstention in dream | Dream interpretation
Dreaming that you are in front of huge amounts of food or beverage but unable to try them represents a situation of abstinence.
It is often a recurrent dream, especially, while dieting or for individuals that are trying to overcome an addiction. It represents the enormous effort the dreamer is exerting in order to achieve their goal. Sometimes, a former smoker dreams that he holds a cigar and, without even realizing, has smoked half of it. Frequently, the dream ends violently. The dreamer wakes up terrified, feeling that all her effort was in vain. This type of dream seems to be a signal from the unconscious not to trust your self-control entirely and remain alert to avoid falling back into such a vice.

Join us in restoring the Historic Skyline Theatre to its former glory!
The idea of restoring the historic Skyline Theatre sparked when the community started talking about building a brand new theater about 4 years ago. It was after Pinedale Entertainment Center closed. I had read an article about a theater restoration in Tahoe. The light bulb went off!
Why build a new one, if we could restore the old one?
I called the property owner and toured the building. It was as close to finding buried treasure, as I will ever get! I got so excited!! The original ceiling was intact, the footprint virtually the same. The two old projectors were still sitting in the projection booths, the original popcorn maker was there, with cups and napkins, old films, signs, and various memorabilia was shelved. Some original seats were left, and the property owner had the metal cut-outs that were back-light with the shapes of outdoor scenes. There was even an old post, with kids initials carved into it from who knows when? How could we not share this with the community!
We are having a blast connecting with the community, hearing amazing stories from the old days, digging up old photo's and posters. We love hearing from you and your excitement about restoring this community gem!
So don't be shy! Come along with us on this amazing journey to rediscover the past and restore our future!
We are looking for the community to support the Skyline by donating, volunteering, and sharing stories…

What(t) The plans?
One exhibition is over and the next is coming. The first plans for an expo in Watts, date back to long before the opening of the new venue, but because of the stress of going anyway Watt open on time, were the "nice perks' just pushed on the back burner.
But now it's finally happened: there is set a date for the opening of my first exhibition in Watts and Watts first exhibition ever ;-)Write down but stuck in the agenda: The opening is on Wednesday 19 november. Exact time will follow. The concept with the passage of time has changed a bit. Was the first time the intention Festivalitis! III of DAAR exposeren, Now it's a little late in the day to the end of November to come up with an overview of the festival summer. Concept nu: little new, little old, little portrait, little live. An overview supposedly, with emphasis on newer work with a few classics.
A better ushering in of 2009, the year I 15 popfotografie four years, there is of course not. A corner of the plans 2009 already…tis something with pages and you can be in leaves.
Further away from today the new Ferret in the shelves on the cover Ziggi. The result of a photo shoot I had with this lovely and talented reggae / dancehall artist recently. Speaking about talent: Next week I will travel to Groningen to see what picture talent Europe hosts. Because I am part of the selection committee at the Popview / Lex van Rossen Award. The prize for the best talent in the photo 'pop photography'. Ideally of course I had participated, but last year I got the stamp of the organization 'too old' impressed! And, and, if you are a talent and as you have already almost elderly. But I feel honored to be in the name of Lex, to be allowed to give my opinion on the new generation of pop photographers. I stitch with pleasure some free time in…
But first tonight Bloc Party!

Joshua Lowe from Purple Creative Services
I was very impressed with Josh, he was an absolute pleasure to teach each and every day. He was dedicated, punctual and very active in the chat. Josh was impressive all week and produced outstanding work along with getting involved with discussions. Josh is a huge credit to his company, it was very tight this week to pick LOTW, however for me: Josh is my learner of the week. Josh was the perfect learner, I could not fault anything he did - he will go very far in this industry and he deserves the LOTW status.
Jeevan Singh from Performance Horizon Group
Jeevan has been very proactive in class, he has fully taken part in the group, individual questions, and activities. Jeevan has been very much at the forefront of all activities and as such is my learner of the week well done.
Harry Sellars from Razorblue Ltd
Harry has been great to have on course this week, always answered questions, and got involved; both on mic and in the chat. Task were always completed on time to a high standard. Well done!
Rebecca Carins from VCH Travel
I was really impressed with Rebecca's attitude during this week's course: her website was refusing to load and not working for most of the session, however she was incredibly patient and refused to give up. When it did finally come back to life she worked quickly and effectively to catch up to the rest of the group, and produced a really good site as a result.
Liam O'Rourke-Morgan from Logma System Design Limited
Liam's assignment answers were excellent. He had a great week with plenty of input!

Interesting essay – written in the New York Review of Books by Russel Baker. The quote goes like this:
"This is journalism's age of melancholy. Newspaper people, once celebrated as founts of ribald humor and uncouth fun, have of late lost all their gaiety, and small wonder. They have discovered that their prime duty is no longer to maintain the republic in well-informed condition�or to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable, as the old gospel has it�but to serve the stock market with a good earnings report every three months or, in plainer English, to comfort the comfortable." (via Scripting News / Dave Winer)
That's sad – for a journalist to admit – but it's true. Not only in an USA-reality, but also in my danish reality. The journalists are not any longer (well have they ever?) driven by a sense of citizenship to reveal the hidden structures, that controls a great deal of our society and our – the citizens – way of perceiving reality. We take too much for granted – and we don't dare to question what politicians, business corporations or huge media structures are telling the public. We only question things when there is a public fuzz about populistic items – say :"Punish violence harder – more police on the streets" or "We're being run over by lazy refugees and immigrants. They're a threat to our society, our christian way of life etc."
Then we make campaign journalism – but still only we're pleasing the fundamental powers of this society. Hiding the annoying things for people, because we're not sure, what people will say. Actually we presume that they're not open to other views. So we don't try it out. Why? Journalist do not dare to think or mean anything in public.
I don't want journalist to be preachers of a higher truth. But we could try to challenge our readers, because they more clever than we and the publishers think.
