For a lot of years, I mean a lot, I avoided music. I didn't lose interest, I avoided it purposefully.
I get sucked in, addicted, I fall in love with it. Maybe I was too immersed in it at a young age when my brain was like a sponge, forming permanent connections.
I fell asleep with music from before I can remember until I got married. Unfortunately my tastes for music to fall asleep to and my husbands taste were nowhere close. So I dropped it.
If I wanted to go to a show the first couple years it was never what my husband liked so I didn't go. Eventually I dropped music since it was a point of contention. I found a few bands we could compromise on but again, I immersed myself in them. Going to every show within 2 hours of us, buying every version of every album, knowing their full history and sadly even a few birthdays lol
Yah, no surprise my obsession was noticed and wasn't loved. So for the last 4 years until this last spring I avoided music again. Spring came, changes were made, I got to choose my passions once again. Understand I was never really told I couldn't have my music, my shows. It was an unsaid understanding. Not worth the arguments. No, I didn't want to run off with the first punk boy I met at a show. Gosh! (Channeled Napoleon Dynamite for a second, sorry)
Tracy has witnessed my obsession first hand and can attest to my love for shows. She may actually think I go a bit insane 🙂 Very unlike me. But actually it is more the true me than I have shown for the majority of the last 17 years or so.
Good God getting older sucks. I realize that I am not old yet, I just can't help feeling I missed some good years.
All this because I came into bed 4 hours ago, put my headphones on and was instantly wired.
There are a few things I am going to have more of; concerts, loud music dancing around the house with my kids, streetbikes (don't laugh, after I gain weight and I am kick ass strong again I am going to learn to ride without a man to hold onto. Mmmm…. I love riding behind a man though). My brother got a new bike and I was instantly jealous.
Frick, now I am really awake.
Oh well, more personal crap that could have all stayed in my head except that I know it's loved by all that stop by 😉
oh! I broke a filling/tooth while camping. Damn s'mores. Payback for eating shit I shouldn't eat. More bills, yay. Sure wish that full time job with benefits would hurry up and call… there are prospects!
Something I find interesting… alone at night
For a lot of years, I mean a lot, I avoided music. I didn't lose interest, I avoided it purposefully.

Huggrz Boot Wraps featured in USA Today 2011 Holiday Gift Guide
Seems that everyone is gifting boot covers from Huggrz Boot Wraps this year. But, why not? It's one-size-fits-all, plus many of the styles are warm and cuddly and all are priced at under $50. Whether it's for Christmas, Hanukah, or even a winter birthday, we think the woman (or girl) in your life would love some Huggrz! So does USA Today. Here's what they had to say:
If you dream of having a closet full of boots, but your finances won't permit it, take a look at Huggrz boot wraps from DB Designs LLC, Troy, Mich. With many patterns, colors, and prints to choose from, Huggrz slip right over your existing boots to create a whole new look. Originally designed for [shearling]-style boots, they adapt easily to many additional styles.
Huggrz [$28-$44] come in three fashion collections: Aspen, which includes [nine] styles in soft faux fur; Santa Fe, which has [four] styles (black zebra, brown leopard, [baby brown leopard], and grey leopard) in 100% acrylic with a soft fur feel; and Bennington, which offers six styles in classic cotton sweater knit including cable and fair isle.
They can be worn pulled up on tall boots or scrunched down on short ones, or you even can pull them up on your legs to make your short boots look tall. What's more, these fabulous accessories offer accessories of their own: Faux fur pom poms in mink, beaver, pink panther, and rabbit, and acrylic pom-poms in brown, black, and pink. Each pair has a loop at the top to hand over a button. Criss Cross Lacing also is available to add a finishing touch to your boot warps. In black, tan, and chocolate, these five-foot long laces are accented with silver tone beads.
For more information, visit www.Huggrz.com.
How to choose the right boot cover
Boot covers are popping up all over the place these days as the hottest new fashion accessory must-have. But how do you make sure to choose the right ones?
Quality materials. Does that faux fur boot cover look like it's part of the boot, or does it look like you're wearing a Muppet on your feet? Does the sweater boot cover hold it's shape or look like an old sock or sweater sleeve pulled down over your boot. Boots take a beating. You need a boot cover that is sturdy enough to hold up to the elements. Boot covers or wraps shouldn't be stretched, stained and misshaped after a single wearing. Higher quality materials will last longer and look better after multiple wearings and washing.
Fit. Do your boot covers stand up alone or do they need that elastic? Using an elastic can give boot covers a "pinched" look, making it obvious that they are more like a legwarmer ON your boot, not a part of the boot. That's the difference between "boot covers" and "boot wraps." Boot wraps are made to wrap around your boot without the need for that elastic at the top. People say "NICE boots," not "where did you get that cover?"
Height. Boot covers come in different lengths. Some of them are so long that they go up to your knee. This works if you're going for the go-go/rave club look or happen to be Nikki Minaj filming a music video with Willow Smith. For the rest of us, boot covers that go up to the knees cut off legs at an unflattering point. Boot wraps that end mid-calf not only fit on your boots, but they can make your legs look skinny, too. At Huggrz, we make our boot wraps perfectly proportional so that they can be scrunched down on short boots, or pulled up on long boots. If they're too tall, boot covers will look too poufy when they are fitted to short boots.
Accessories. A boot cover, is just a boot cover, is just a boot cover. But, consider a boot wrap that can do much more. Huggrz Boot Wraps come with accents like toggles or fringe, and many have a signature button that adds a bit of class and can be used to add great accessories. Change the look with pom-poms, feathers, or Huggrz's suede crisscross lacing. Between the 19 styles PLUS the multiple accessories, you have endless ways to change the look of your boots.
Michael Kors says shearling boots and bare legs too Jersey Shore
We love our furry boots here at Huggrz, but can you really wear them to the beach? Michael Kors just posted his Dos and Don'ts of Winter Styles for Glamour Magazine and he says furry boots with short tight dresses is way too Jersey Shore. We agree with him when it comes to the picture of Snookie posted below.
More from Michael Kors' Glamour Winter Style Dos and Dont's.
However, we don't agree with Michael Kors' ski lodge-only assessment. We think it's all in the execution. With Huggrz faux fur boot covers, your woolly-look boots are going to attract a lot of attention. So you need to keep the rest of the outfit subtle. Or at least coordinated with the boots like this gal from Lookbook.nu whose ruffled shorts perfectly set off her sherpa boots.
So what do you think? Boots and bare legs? Yea or Nay?
BravoTV's Mad Fashion is Mad for Jene Luciani and Huggrz Boot Wraps
The newest Bravo-lebrity Style Expert and Author of The Bra Book, Jené Luciani, premiered her guest-starring role on Bravo's hit show Mad Fashion on Tuesday night. The episode, entitled "Brastrocity," revealed the creation of the world's first couture BRA DRESS created by Chris March and team. Jené wore it accented with $100,000 worth of jewels from celebrity jeweler Desires by Mikolay, topped off with a bra-cup cap accented by a feather.
To celebrate the episode, Jené Luciani was joined by Chris March and the cast of Bravo's Mad Fashion (Christine Brown and Jake Kelsey were in the house), NY Housewives Jill Zarin & Cindy Barshop, Doggie Moms' Grace Forester & Karen Biel, Tracy Stern, High Society's Paul Johnson Calderon & Tyler Burrows, Georgia Jagger, G2 Organics founder & socialite Cherie Corso, Starr Scott (wife of NY Jets Bart Scott), celebrity stylist Lauren Rae Levy, Erica Lundmark, BET's Wayne Brown, PRO wrestlers Brimstone & Luscious, and many more famous faces. They walked the red carpet, mingled with some 200 guests; sipped Pisco Porton Bra-tini's, nibbled on Cupcakes by Missy, enjoyed complimentary ShellacTM mani's from Nail Gypsy and viewed Mad Fashion with the rest of the world, from the fabulous West Village venue, Downtown Galway Hooker. They even got Hugrz Boot Wraps in their VIP goody bags!
Luciani, no stranger to the small screen (she is a regular on NBC's TODAY along with many other outlets and has appeared on the Style Network and the Discovery Channel, to name a few) is a regular fixture in print and online magazines. Of her first Bravo experience, she says, "working with Chris and team was a fashion girl's dream come true. Together, we created something that was one of a kind." Last night, she donned a couture feather confection made especially for her by Constance McCardle.
It was a great night and Hugrz was thrilled to be a part! Thanks Jené!

Donated Vehicles Boosts Agriculture Sector
Minister Seruiratu happy; acknowledges government of India's support to Fiji
The government of India donated two Mahindra vehicles and two tractors worth over $200,000 to the Agriculture sector at the Koronivia Research Station in Nausori yesterday.
Minister for Agriculture, Rural Maritime Development and National Disaster Management Inia Seruiratu says he is thankful to the government of India for their technical assistance to Fiji.
"I thank and acknowledge the government of India's support to Fiji under the bilateral development co-operation that was signed in 2006 and has been further extended for another three years.
"We are very pleased with this co-operation to further develop a strong partnership between the two countries through the technical assistance programme," he said.
"Today I am happy to see the new vehicles added to our fleet which we have waited patiently for.
"The two vehicles will be used solely for the sheep breeding programme under the Animal Health Production Division and the Fiji Agriculture Statistics Unit that are undertaking our statistical survey in order to establish the Ministry's much needed agriculture statistics."
Indian High Commissioner to Fiji Vishvas Sapkal said he was happy to be a part of the development process in the agricultural sector of Fiji.
"The machinery handed over today is to help the economy to rise in agriculture sector as Fiji imports and exports various food items and vegetables.
"Agriculture sector in Fiji is a vital part of the economy and when this type of revolutions comes, naturally the production of goods get high which will generate better revenue and grow our economy," Mr Sapkal said.

This year won't be the finish line for the Bay to Breakers footrace after all.
The event organizers announced that Zazzle, a Redwood City-based company that serves as a platform for creating new products online, has signed a two-year contract, agreeing to be the title sponsor for the annual run, including the May 15 race.
"The thing that's cool is that they are about personal creativity, ingenuity, and expression, which fits into the Bay to Breakers 'come dressed or undressed' [theme]," said Sam Singer, spokesman for the B2B event.
Singer told reporters about the new sponsorship on Thursday -- the same day that registration for the event sold out. But now that they have a sponsor in place, it's possible organizers will consider opening up registration to more runners.
For the fist time this year, event organizers capped registration at 50,000 participants, and more importantly, they banned runners from getting "shit-faced drunk."
Singer wouldn't disclose any of the details of the deal, including why the company only agreed to a two-year contract. But the deal will buy organizers a little more time to search for other future sponsors.
"We were concerned we would not find a title sponsor," Singer told SF Weekly. "But this will help us support the financial needs of the race and make it an ongoing event."

Dr. J. joined host Arnell Dowret on WBAI's Equal Time for Freethought on July 2, 2011:
Humans are inextricably linked to the technology we create, and the technology we create in turn shapes us. In the next few decades a confluence of high technologies including nano-tech, bio-tech, info-tech, and cognitive science will bring humankind into territory previously unimagined, and largely still unimaginable.
Future technologies may empower human kind to eliminate or significantly reduce the serious existential threats we presently face such as environmental collapse, nuclear disaster, and worldwide pandemic. On the other hand, our new technologies themselves could bring an entirely new set of challenges with which we will have to struggle.

"I want to lose weight" is an answer I often hear when talking to new clients to my question, "What is your goal?"
When I investigate further, we come up with quantifiable goals: to release body fat (refer to Lose Body Fat or Release Body Fat to understand the change in vocabulary) and decrease their body fat %. The clients explain how they may have lost 5lbs in the past, only to put the weight back on as well as additional 5-10lbs of fat. (Keep in mind, we do not know if they lost fat or muscle since the only number to track was weight). Why can't the client lose the fat and keep it off. In order for someone to release body fat, they need to become healthy.
What is healthy?
While most clients define "healthy" as feeling good, how my jeans fit, or how tired they are at the end of the day, how do we currently define health in our country? How can we measure health in our country in an objective and quantifiable way?
Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the U.S. according to the CDC (Center for Disease Control). The American Heart Association explains, "The key to preventing cardiovascular disease, also called coronary artery disease (CAD), is managing your risk factors." Body fat %, blood pressure, cholesterol ("fasting lipoprotein profile" to measure total, HDL and LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides), fasting blood glucose, waist circumference, and reported nicotine use are the main measureable factors which can prevent CAD.
"Regular cardiovascular screening is important because it helps you detect risk factors in their earliest stages," said Barry A. Franklin, Ph.D., director at William Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak, Mich., and an American Heart Association volunteer. "This way, you can treat the risk factor with lifestyle changes and pharmacotherapies, if appropriate, before it ultimately leads to the development of cardiovascular disease."
"For many patients, screening results can serve as a wake-up call," Franklin said. "Higher than optimal cholesterol or body mass index, for example, may drive home the message that it's time to modify your diet and get more physical activity. When the test comes back and you see abnormal numbers, it becomes personal. Suddenly, the idea of making lifestyle changes isn't just a recommendation in a pamphlet. It's something that can impact your life and health."
If we improve our parameters, not only will we reduce the risk of CAD, we will reduce the risk for many other diseases as well.
Now that we know the parameters for being healthy, how do we define optimal health?
Body Fat %: less than 10% for men and less than 16% for women (Defined by Charles Poliquin)
Waist Circumference: A man whose waist circumference is more than 40 inches; a non-pregnant woman whose waist circumference is more than 35 inches. (Defined by CDC)
- the numbers listed are not optimal. The fat stored around your waist elevates your risk of CAD. This parameter goes hand in hand with body fat %. If you are lower in body fat, you will have smaller waist circumference (see Body Fat %above).
Fasting Glucose: 84mg/dL (Defined by Kaiser Permanente)
Blood Lipids: (Defined by Dr. Sinatra)
- Total cholesterol: 180–250 mg/dL (understand the ratio HDL to total cholesterol is more important than the actual number itself)
- Total HDL cholesterol: 50-120 mg/dL for women; 60-120 mg/dL for men
- HDL cholesterol subtypes: Greater than 25 mg/dL for HDL2; greater than 15 mg/dL for HDL3
- Total LDL cholesterol: 80–140 mg/dL
- LDL cholesterol subtype Lp(a): less than 30 mg/dL for a standard blood test; less than 10 mg/dL for a VAP test.
- Total triglycerides: 50–100 mg/dL
Blood pressure: 120/80 mm Hg (systolic pressure is less than 120 AND diastolic pressure is less than 80) (Defined by American Heart Association).
Reported nicotine use: Life expectancy for smokers is at least 10 years shorter than for nonsmokers (defined by CDC)
What are you to do?
Understand that fitting into jeans or how tired you are is not a way to define how healthy you are. Body fat %, blood pressure, cholesterol ("fasting lipoprotein profile" to measure total, HDL and LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides), fasting blood glucose, waist circumference, and reported nicotine use are factors which we to predict CAD as well as other diseases. In other words, we use these factors to determine how healthy you are.
Over the next few months, I will explain how each factor affects your body. Each factor has a relationship to one another. I will also show a way to routinely check your health in an easy practical way.
When a person becomes healthy, their body begins a metamorphosis into a leaner healthier body. Thus reducing body fat, and fitting into your jeans!

With the holiday season in full speed, you may feel compelled to get all of your last minute Christmas items out of the way by heading over to mall. And who can blame you? It's a one-stop shop for all Christmas-related gifts. But before you head over to the larger chained stores, we have some alternatives for you.
In honor of Eat, Drink, and Buy Local week, we encourage you, the last minute shopper, to spend your hard working dollars on mom-and-pop shops across the city. According to the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), small businesses have generated 64 percent of new jobs and paid 44 percent of the total United States private payroll. Here in Illinois, with the help of the Illinois Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (IHCC), Hispanic business revenue increased by more than $200 million in a 20-year period. So it's safe to say, small businesses contribute to local economies by bringing growth, innovation, and sustainability to neighborhoods. Responsible for creating jobs, small businesses are the bread and butter of various neighborhoods across this grand city of Chicago.
This Holiday Season help support local entrepreneurs by visiting their establishment ranging from, restaurants to comedy clubs, boutiques, and everything in between. To get you started we compiled a list of some of the many vibrant businesses sure to peek your interest.

Excellent product, does not leak, perfect for hand lotions, sunscreen, etc. while traveling, camping. Very fast, reliable, professional service!
Sturdy and dependable, these bottles seal tightly and will not leak. I have a couple dozen in various sizes. Don't over-tighten the cap, because over time it will weaken and break. (This happened to one that I've had for a couple years.)

Monday 25th June
Our last day in Vancouver. I suppose you could call it a "lay day".
Basically we didn't do nuffin.
Well, we did go to Jericho Beach for Poppy the French Bulldog to run around.
After dinner Doug n Linda drove us to Vancouver Airport to begin the process of coming home. Getting booked on our flight was reasonably easy considering every domestic flight with Air Canada produced unwanted surprises.
Next comes getting through security. There seems to be no easy time for this process. Line up and wait. Remove belt, coins, glasses and mobile phone. Take the laptop out of its snug protective carry bag. Walk through the scanner then find what belongs to you and pack it away again. For the first time since arriving in Canada I have not been called aside for additional checks and questioning. After 15 minutes we are finally in the terminal and find a comfortable seat, near the flight gate and settle down for the 2 hour wait to be called.
The 15 hour flight home was just as I expected. Donnis slept most of the way and I watched 3 movies. While in the aircraft toilet, about 4 hours into the flight I heard a noise like somebody having a fit and heard a thump. I thought it was the adjoining toilet and intended to call the hostess. When I opened the door a woman was on the floor outside the door, passed out and attendants were umm err attending. Shortly the Captain announced there was a "medical situation". Was there a doctor or nurse on the flight? A nurse came from cattle class, just like us while a doctor came from up front, business class. After awhile, they revived the woman and took blood sugar samples and she was helped forward.
We arrived 7.30am and suddenly it was Wednesday morning. We skipped Tuesday. The food on the flight was OK but not something I would order in a restaurant. It was filling, timely and slightly warm – no chance anybody will scald themselves. Same goes for the tea and coffee. Only warm enough so that it can be drunk quickly without much taste. Flavour was something which must have been left on the ground. We were given some French Wine with dinner. I did not like it and thank goodness I had an aisle seat near the toilets. How can coffee be made to taste tasteless? Donnis claims she knows the secret to make it tasty. Dump two of the little Half and Half servings into the coffee. It now tastes even less like coffee but at least has some taste. (Half and Half is a UHT type milk/cream combination much favoured in Canada and the US. They are often called coffee creamers, it can also be purchased fresh in various sizes)
Home at last. Skytrain to Helensvale then bus to Harbour Town. The bus driver must have been trained in Vancouver! He could not wait for passengers to get to their seats before accelerating and passengers grab for anything to save being thrown along the bus. I walked home, drove the car to collect Donnis and the luggage where she was waiting at Harbour Town bus stop. An hour later I was in bed sleeping the sleep of the innocent. At least for two hours. I guess innocence left while I was sleeping.
Since arriving home we have been to the beach several times and walked on clean white sand in water still around 21° and able to breath the lovely salt laden humid air. My sinuses cleared within a day.
It was a wonderful holiday, visiting family, seeing the sights but it was time to come home. Now we can start looking at local adventures again.
In the meantime we are both still tired.
See you next week.

China is an emergent actor which becomes more and more important in the Latin-American context. In this November 2016, the president Xi Xi Jinping visited Latin America concerning the APEC assembly, and it was the third time in less than four years, as a demonstration of interest in the region.
This visit, was accompanied by the signing of several commercial agreements with Ecuador, Peru and Chile.
In this text, we discuss the cooperation agreements between china and Venezuela where the payment with oil is one of their essential characteristics.
If it constitutes a new way to reach development objectives and bilateral relationships, it is a matter that only time and the conditions of raw materials exchange will tell.
In the meantime, Ambiente y Sociedad presents this document in order to contribute to the discussion.

There were about six gray cats walking around from place to place, each cat worse-looking and more sinister than the other. For one thing they were large cats, they were long cats, they moved slowly, staring momentarily at something and continuing on to eat cat food from their bowls or kill something outside. And I thought cats were supposed to be so cut and funny.
I described them to a cat-owning exercise teacher. First she laughed. Then she said, "They must be old, they sound like old cats. They're old cats." Her style was to say things over and over, as if that would make them more true.
"Like what do they do?" she asked.
"They walk from one place to another and sit back down," I said.
"That's what the old ones are like," she said. She knew about all kinds of animals. Her youngest son owned a lizard and the lizard was always outgrowing his cage. A science homework project at school required something that involved a rat going through a maze. They had a hamster at home, but they'd been told by rodent experts that hamsters wouldn't go through a maze. The exercise teacher and her son had to go out and buy a rat. They asked the pet-store owner whether they could return the rat after the science project. They didn't want a refund, just to be rid of the rat because they had too many animals already. But then they all grew to love the rat.
"The rat was nice and friendly," the exercise teacher said. "He was smart, too."
It was a white rat, and when they approached his cage, he'd come to greet them. When I laughed, she said, "Really rats are nice, they are, they're nicer than people."
When they brought the rat back to the pet store the proprietor tried to persuade them to keep it. They still didn't want a refund, they wanted only to be relieved of the burden of the care of the rat. The owner tried to scare them by saying snake owners came in to buy rats to give to the reptiles for dinner.
"She did scare us," the exercise teacher said. "We all loved the rat. My son was starting to cry. A teenage girl, a customer, heard the whole thing and said she would take care of the rat. But when they told her the price of the cage, she couldn't afford it. I said we'd pay half and the store owner offered to pay the other half. The girl was so happy to get the rat. Really, the rat looked so adorable. It was love at first sight."
"It must be the same way women love rats in the human species," I said.
"No," the teacher said. "Rats are nicer, they're not like men."

They were large cats, they were long cats.

Cyber Security & Search Engine, You're On 'The Hot Seat'!written by August Brice
Who Doesn't Love Spotlight?
I've always loved the Search feature on the Mac's with the little magnifying glass up in the corner. It truly is a lovely shortcut that searches every little thing and place on your computer. Therefore, you don't have to remember if you put a file in a personal folder or a work folder. Also, if you can't find a program or an app, or a widget, like your calculator, Spotlight makes it quick and easy. It even works with external drives that you have connected.
But, How Illuminating is the Light?
Pretty good. Most of the time. Spotlight automatically searches your computer and the internet. BUT, Not only does Spotlight highlight your search results, it also sends them and related usage, oh my!! to Apple!! Look, here's the disclosure right here!
Sending all the information to Apple is the default setting. Do you want all that information stored somehow by Apple? If that makes you feel uncomfortable like it does me, it's simple to eliminate internet participation and results sharing by doing this-

I had a break down a fair while ago (2009) and fro. That I have severe depression and anxieties issue.
Also major negative thoughthoughts patterns.
I have tried a lot of therapy types and see a psychologist regularly.
I'm curious what othershe find helps them.
I've also noticed it depends where in my cycles as to what is most effective, while I'm always on medication so that I function normally, I have found grounding and mindfulness great most of the time as well as CBT for the negative thoughts.
I had tried thought journalist for negative thoughts but it made me focus more on the thoughts and get stuck in my head at times.
Back in 2013 I did a counselling diploma and found it great for looking at type of therapies and psychological theories.
Anyway I'm very curious as to what everyone does/finds helps them.
Please only legal and safe methods.


text: Statewide public safety groups have been critical of the bill. PORAC President Ron Cottingham noted, "This attack on middle class families, including public safety employees, is unacceptable." CPF President Lou Paulson stated, "these proposals go far beyond "reform". Instead they threaten basic retirement security for generations of front line first responders and their families."

I was an ordinary boy.
A skin full of hollow.
Misery may well love company but I couldn't find any.
She was the prettiest girl I had ever seen.
I used to sit with her on a wall outside of school waiting on her mum to come and collect her.
I knew she liked The Beautiful South so I asked my dad if he would buy tickets to go and see them in Edinburgh so that I could take her…in a rare moment of bravado and near confidence I had already asked her, in an even rarer moment of someone finding me tolerable enough to spend an evening with she had said yes.
We took the train to Edinburgh.
We watched the concert.
My head was filled with dreams of walking her home and kissing her goodnight on the doorstep.
As we stepped out of the Playhouse Theatre I heard a voice behind us calling her name.
It was her older sister.
She walked with us to the train station.
The two of them found seats together and I was left on my own in a different carriage.
When I got home my mum asked me how it had gone.
"Fine" I said before heading off to my room and turning to the only person who could really understand and offer some sort of twisted comfort.
As ever I removed the record from the sleeve with the care of a Priest passing a Communion wafer…this was my religion.
"Were you and he lovers, and would you say so if you were?"
She wasn't ever going to be any sort of lover and even if she were to be…it was obvious that she wouldn't say so. Yet again only Morrissey understood. I was alone and lonely everywhere except sat by my record player with his voice drifting, floating, thundering, plunging and soaring around me and deep inside of me. Every word written and sung only for me…even the ones that made no sense to me.
I had missed The Smiths, arriving late to the party of the forlorn and loveless…which was appropriate really given the fact that in real life I hadn't ever been invited to a party. Just a few weeks before my Beautiful South "date" a really awful boy in my year had enjoyed an encounter at an "empty" that went beyond the erotic with another girl I had a crush on. I was at home…unaware that there even was a party.
When I discovered that The Smiths was dead after I had discovered them it seemed a very cruel trick for the fates to have played on me, just as I found someone who could love me and whom I could love it turned out that they didn't really exist. So when news reached the coastal town I lived in (come friendly bombs) that Morrissey was releasing a solo album my heart was full.
"Viva Hate" is everything that one would expect from an album from the lead singer of one of the most important bands of the post-punk/indie era. Long before his court case, long before his teenage diaries were fully mined, long before the bitterness, long before fame, fame, fatal fame turned him into a charicature of himself this body of work arrived and served notice of a charming man, a handsome devil, a joker who was still funny, the son and heir of a shyness that was criminally vulgar, a poet. Every track bore witness to his status as the most important lyricist of his generation and, thanks to Vinni Reilly and the brilliant Stephen Street, the music massaged the aching muscle that was your heart and soothed the ball of confusion that was your soul.
For the casual listener it would be the dent in the charts made by the singles "Everyday is Like Sunday" (John Betjeman's "Slough" set to music) and "Suedehead" (taking its name from the boot boy pulp fiction of Richard Allen) that would cause the most interest. Each of these singles reached heights in the charts that The Smiths could only have dreamt of. Both are beautifully crafted and are accompanied by (shock-horror-gasp) VIDEOS! "Everyday is Like Sunday" has a promo film that features the true Queen of England, Billie Whitelaw, in a cameo role and "Suedehead" sees La Mozzerina gamboling around the streets and fields of James Dean's hometown.
The highlight moment of the album and, arguably, of Morrissey's career though arrives with "Late Night Maudlin Street" which is one of very few moments in pop history where lyrics are genuine poetry. Paying homage to both Bill Naughton and the film "Carry On Teacher" with its title the song rolls and strolls along for nearly 8 minutes…eight minutes that are over far too quickly. It is, quite simply, one of the greatest lyrics in pop music history. There. I've said it. Damn you to Hull and back if you don't agree with me.
"Love at first sight, may sound trite, but it's true you know."
"When I sleep with that picture of you framed beside my bed, oh it's childish and it's silly, but I think its you in my room by my bed…I told you it was silly."
"No, I cannot steal a pair of jeans off a clothes line for you"
A stream of consciousness.
A dream of subconsciousness.
A nightmare.
A hymn to the past.
An ode to the streets where he played.
There really wasn't a need for Morrissey to release his autobiography, everything I needed to know about his life story was contained in these words and in every note of every instrument.
Besides this (although what more do you need?) there were other notable highlights, the punk roar in a soft whisper of "Margaret on the Guillotine" which saw him interviewed by Special Branch, the nothing more delicate "Angel, Angel Down We Go Together", the hilarious "I Don't Mind if you Forget Me", the controversial "Bengali in Platforms" and then songs which I'm going to dismiss as "the rest" which would comfortably sit on a greatest hits compilation of most other songwriters.
In thirty years I've loved, I've lost, I've been sick, I've been hurt, I've married, I've divorced, I've married again, I've become a father, I've hit desperate lows, I've glimpsed dizzying highs and throughout it all "Viva Hate" has been there…a therapist, a friend, a healer, a doctor, the best friend I've ever had.
Viva Hate.

You can qualify for a cash advance loan at "Inbox Loan Payment Options" Have you ever found yourself dealing with multiple problems at the same time? Your kid gets sick. The pipe in the bathroom leaks. And your car wouldn't start. This is the kind of situation in which a lot of folks take out payday loans. Before you raise an eyebrow, you should first learn the many benefits of using this type of short-term loan. You have probably heard a lot of horrible things about people getting into a cycle of debt after using payday loans, but if you know how to avoid the same mistakes they did, you should be able to utilize this loan for what it is meant for. Get financing for whatever you need now at Inbox Loan Payment Options.
Inbox Loan Payment Options, Firstly, you must realize that this type of loan can be a low dollar amount loan. Because of this you are able to only borrow several hundred dollars at the same time. In some instances, there are actually lenders that lets you borrow money up to $1000. As its name suggests, you have to pay back the borrowed funds in your next payday. As a result of short-term nature in the loan, you must anticipate paying a comparatively high-monthly interest.
It can be inevitable to make the comparison between payday cash loans and private loans from banks. Of course, personal loans are attractive due to their low-rates. However, it is not necessarily always possible to get approved for starters particularly if you do not have a high credit rating. This is basically the exact good reason why more and more people use online payday loans instead. They do not need to bother about their credit rating at all. They merely have to show any proof that they can pay back the loan amount promptly.
You need to realize that payday cash loans have a very high APR. For this reason, you have to be sure that one could pay it off punctually. In the event you fail to accomplish this, you then shouldn't be blown away if you find yourself paying a considerably higher amount than necessary. Make sure that your next payday is very large enough to cover the money amount. Otherwise, you risk paying huge fees, thus damaging your financial health.
This is actually the biggest mistake committed by many people individuals who use online payday loans. These are tempted to take out a huge loan without really thinking of how they can pay it back. The effect is they must spend the money for high APR, forcing these to enter a debt cycle.

Open Access News
News from the open access movementJump to navigation
On December 16 the Indian Parliament adopted the Freedom of Information Bill, which gives citizens the right of access to government information. Indian President Shri Narayanan signed the bill into law on January 10.
The January issue of D-Lib Magazine is now online. Here are the FOS-related articles.
Last night PBS NOW broadcast an excellent documentary on copyright in America, Tollbooths on the Digital Highway. Jack Valenti and Pat Schroeder spoke for the content industry, while Eben Moglen, Siva Vaidhyanathan, Nancy Kranich, and Jim Griffin spoke for reform. Rick Karr narrated. PBS offers a transcript but not a webcast of the show. (Thanks to Jason Bobe for the link.)
Quoting Jim Griffin: "You know, equalizing access to knowledge is one of the hallmarks of a civilized society. Depriving people of access to knowledge based on the size of their parents' wallet is a hallmark of a despotic society." Quoting Siva Vaidhyanathan: "We're allowing the content holders, the content producers, to have a...remarkable amount of control over the manner and amount and re-use of all this material. We don't want to build a cultural environment, in which the media companies have that much control over our daily lives."
The license accompanying Network Associates software requires that anyone writing a review of the software must get the company's permission in advance. The New York State Supreme Court just ruled that this licensing term is not enforceable. (PS: These days every victory for fair use is worth celebrating, even painfully obvious slam-dunk victories like this one.)
Lawrence Lessig has an op-ed on the Eldred case in today's New York Times, Protecting Mickey Mouse and Art's Expense. He has a constructive suggestion for moving forward. Since the Supreme Court has deferred to Congress on these issues, Lessig proposes a small change to the copyright statute that Congress could adopt without offending the Disneys of the world and that would put perhaps 98% of copyrighted works more than 50 years old into the public domain. Send copies to your Congressional delegation.
BioMed Central's pages explaining its open-access business model have now been translated into Japanese and French. Translations into other languages are coming.
As announced in the latest update from BioMed Central, dated 17 January 2003, a new open-access journal, Health and Quality of Life Outcomes has been launched. The Editorial Board has a strong representation from Italy, and also has substantial international representation. For example, it includes the names of several individuals who have made well-known contributions to the field, including Barrie Cassileth (USA), David Cella (USA), Lesley Fallowfield (UK), David Gustafson (USA), Robert Kaplan (USA) and others. This new journal will be in direct competition with Quality of Life Research, a toll-access journal of Kluwer Academic Publishers.
More on the Eldred decision....Jack Balkin, Knight Professor of Constitutional Law and the First Amendment at Yale Law School, now argues that the Eldred decision provides new grounds for overturning the DMCA. (Thanks to LawMeme.)
More on deep linking....Newsbooster, the Danish company ordered to stop deep linking to newspaper stories last July, refuses to give up. It will remove the deep links from its web pages, but allow the public to download a P2P application called Newsbrowser that contains the prohibited links. The theory is that either Newsbrowser will not be subject to the EU Copyright Directive or at least it cannot be shut down. Quoting Nicolai Lassen, Newsbooster's editor-in-chief: "Newsbooster cannot and will not accept limits on the free possibilities of the Internet. We will continue to fight for a legal ruling that recognizes the difference between a referral via a link and the copying of protected information. But in the meantime, there is Newsbrowser."
The Toyko Declaration issued yesterday by the Asian Regional Meeting (in preparation for the upcoming World Summit on the Information Society) encourages the development and use of use open-source software. The draft statement originally said that OSS should be "supported" but U.S. objections forced the delegates to change the word to "encouraged". The meeting represents 600 delegates from Asian governments, companies, NGO's, and international organizations. (PS: It appears that the declaration is not yet online.)
Today the World Health Organization added 43 countries to the set of countries eligible to participate in the HINARI project, which arranges tiered pricing of 2,200 medical journals so that the subscription prices for developing nations are either greatly discounted or entirely waived. Now the program embraces 112 nations and 28 publishers. (Thanks to Terry Foreman.)
Lynn Eaton's January 4 article on the Public Library of Science in BMJ is generating a good discussion of open-access issues in the BMJ "rapid response" forum. There are now postings by Douglas Carnall, James Till, Gunther Eysenbach (x 3), Stevan Harnad, and Jan Velterop. The forum is still open for further comments.
Excerpt from the New York Times Editorial for January 16: "In effect, the Supreme Court's decision makes it likely that we are seeing the beginning of the end of public domain and the birth of copyright perpetuity. Public domain has been a grand experiment, one that should not be allowed to die. The ability to draw freely on the entire creative output of humanity is one of the reasons we live in a time of such fruitful creative ferment."
More on the Eldred case....For a large number of links to recent news stories and comment, see Lawrence Lessig's blog.
John Willinsky, Policymakers' Online Use of Academic Research, Education Policy Analysis Archives, January 11, 2003. (Thanks to Paul Pival.) Abstract: "In addressing the question of how new technologies can improve the public quality and presence of academic research, this article reports on the current online use of research by policymakers. Interviews with a sample of 25 Canadian policymakers at the federal level were conducted, looking at the specific role that online research has begun to play in their work, and what frustrations they face in using this research. The study found widespread use of online research, increasing the consultation of this source in policy analysis and formation. The principal issues remain those of access, indexing and credibility, with policymakers restricting themselves in large part to open access sources. Still, online research is proving a counterforce to policymakers' reliance on a small number of academic consultants as gatekeepers and sources for research. What is needed, it becomes clear, is investigations into whether innovative well-indexed systems that integrate a range of academic and non-academic resources might increase the political impact of research in the social sciences and education."
The other day I said that the list of eprint archives created by the new eprint subject categorization discussion "appears to be the most complete list of eprint archives anywhere". Charles W. Bailey Jr. just drew my attention to the Virtual Technical Reports Center: Eprint, Preprints, & Technical Reports on the Web from the University of Maryland Libraries. It is superbly done and clearly more comprehensive. (Thank you, Charles, and thank you UMaryland Libraries.)
More on the Eldred decision....Jack Balkin, Knight Professor of Constitutional Law and the First Amendment at Yale Law School, criticizes the Supreme Court for its shoddy treatment of the First Amendment issues in Eldred. (Thanks to LawMeme.)
Excerpt: "Ginsburg argues that there is no conflict between free speech and copyright terms because the 'copyright scheme ... incorporates its own speech-protective purposes and safeguards.' She begins by noting that 'The Copyright Clause and First Amendment were adopted close in time. This proximity indicates that, in the Framers� view, copyright�s limited monopolies are compatible with free speech principles.' This argument proves both too much and too little. It proves too much because the First Amendment was ratified at a time when lots of laws against libel, blasphemy, and indecency (judged by 1791 standards) were thought to be consistent with the First Amendment. Indeed, Congress passed the Alien and Sedition Acts only seven years later. If Ginsburg�s argument is correct, most of contemporary First Amendment law is wrong. The argument proves too little because the length of the copyright monopoly at the time of the Founding was much much shorter than it is today, and the modern doctrines that have expanded the scope of copyright protection did not exist in the 1790's. The fact that some degree of copyright monopoly was thought compatible with the First Amendment does not demonstrate that any degree of monopoly, no matter how large or extensive, would have been thought compatible."
In today's SearchDay, Gary Price reviews five of his favorite non-commercial web directories, most of which focus on academic content across the net.
Gigi Sohn's public statement on the Eldred case for Public Knowledge (cited in my previous post) is the first I've seen to make an explicit connection to FOS issues. Excerpt: "Finally, today's decision highlights the importance of mechanisms like the Creative Commons and the Budapest Open Access Initiative. These initiatives are designed to work outside of the policy process in ways that give creative artists and researchers greater ability to control their works and make them available to the public under terms more generous than copyright law normally allows." (PS: This is right. Creative Commons and BOAI don't require copyright reform and can both proceed unhindered by this new obstacle to copyright reform. Instead of asking legislators to change the law, these initiaitves ask copyright holders to consent make their works available to the worldwide online audience without charge or permission barriers.)
More on the Eldred case....Here are some of the major news stories and public statements.
If you can't make the open-access conference in Paris (January 23-24), then watch the webcast, which will start at 10:00 am Paris time.
The February issue of Walt Crawford's Cites & Insights is now online. There's less in this issue on FOS than in most recent issues, but there's a good section on tech predictions for 2003 and a retrospective on the predictions for 2002.
One outgrowth of the 2nd Workshop on the Open Archives Initiative (Geneva, October 17-19, 2002) is an online discussion of subject categorization for eprint archives. The site includes a list of the of the categorization schemes that might be used and what appears to be the most complete list of eprint archives anywhere, labelling each archive with the software creating it, the kind of subject categorization it uses, and its type (institutional, disciplinary, or both).
The December-January issue of Ariadne is now online. Here are the FOS-related articles.
Useful reminder from Gary Price in today's SearchDay: "For most of you, the library is a familiar place. However, what you might be unaware of is that many public libraries in the United States and Canada offer free access to databases that contain full-text magazine and newspaper articles, biographical profiles, full-text books, and much more. These databases also contain large amounts of material that you would never be able to access using a web engine. What's even more exciting is that these databases are available remotely."
More on the Eldred case....John Palfrey put it well: "Initial reax on the 2-7 decision in the Eldred case: 1) No one could have done a better job than Larry Lessig did, period. He is the standard-bearer. 2) This movement is bigger than this court case. It's about giving voice to the public domain and we're committed to it. 3) The challenges will keep coming, make no mistake. 4) More people than anyone could have expected cared about this case. 5) We need to think through new ways to make this whole copyright-and-the-Internet thing work." (Thanks to Copyfight.)
More on the Eldred case....Ginsberg's majority opinion (32 pages) is now online, as are the dissents by Stevens (22 pages) and Breyer (29 pages).
In the January issue of Library Link, Philip Calvert tries to show that some librarian criticisms of journal publishers are unwarranted. Excerpt:
If a private survey were done on what librarians think of journal publishers, I predict that the most common response would be something along the lines of �they are all money-grabbing exploiters of public intellectual property�. A public survey might garner slightly more polite responses, but you get the point. Many librarians, especially in the academic sector, seem to regard commercial journal publishers as an enemy who should be done away with as quickly as possible. Well, it is quite all right to let off steam when frustrated, and everyone would expect the serials librarian to gripe about journal price increases, but this becomes dangerous when senior managers talk nonsense about commercial publishers in public meetings, and that�s what I�ve been hearing lately.In the rest of his opinion piece, however, Calvert suggests a couple of ways in which libraries and publishers should work together, which is a very different thing from showing that any criticisms are unwarranted.
More on the Eldred case....The Supreme Court upheld copyright extension 7-2. Justice Ginsberg wrote the opinion, which should be online in some form later today. More later.
Betsy Mason reports in The Scientist that Vivian Siegel has left her position as editor of Cell to become the executive director of the open-access publishing unit at the Public Library of Science. Quoting Marc Kirschner of Harvard Medical School: "It's an extremely good sign. She's a very knowledgeable, effective editor of the leading journal of biology, and she's well known in the scientific community. It's an indication that the leadership [at the PLoS journals] will be effective, fair and inspired." (PS: A coup for open-access publishing proving --again, but dramatically-- that high quality and high prestige are entirely compatible with the elimination of price and permission barriers.)
Stanford physicist Robert Laughlin argues that scientific openness is incompatible with economic pressure to patent or commercialize the results of scientific inquiry. "Research linked to property has a built-in conflict of interest toward the truth. For a research investment to be justified, it must produce value equal to or greater than that of the investment. When that value takes the form of intellectual property--knowledge that one can sell--as it commonly does, it must be kept secret, since no one will buy knowledge that is available for free. The core content of useful industrial research can rarely, if ever, be submitted to public scrutiny. This secrecy increases the opportunity for impropriety and thus makes the knowledge inherently less reliable than comparable knowledge produced in the open." (Thanks to Noteworthy.)
Project COUNTER (Counting Online Usage of NeTworked Electronic Resources) has released its Code of Practice. This is the spec with which member organizations must comply in order to measure online usage in "a credible, consistent and compatible way".
In a December 12 article for Electronic Book Web, Aline Soules argues that the first-sale doctrine should be extended to electronic publications. "For years, we have taken for granted the idea that if we like what we buy to read, we can loan or forward it to a friend, and if we decide we no longer want that particular copy, we can give it away or sell it. It has become a fundamental part of how we share information, and, no matter how difficult or how polarized the views, we should find a way to translate that into the digital age."
Yesterday the New York Times took notice of Bruce Perens' series of open-source books on open-source software. "The electronic versions of the books, Mr. Perens added, can be frequently updated, and the authors can edit readers' contributions. He considers the series � in which his role is mainly selecting books and setting policy � to be a step toward broadening the application of open-source principles. 'We are expanding the scope of collaborative works beyond software,' Mr. Perens said."
Alf Eaton, Joining the dots - advances in online biomedical literature management, Hublog, January 14, 2003. An intelligent discussion of recent advances on six fronts: searching, current awareness, collaborative knowledge, archiving, retrieval, and local PDF stores. He invites users to post their own conclusions. Eaton is the developer of an alternative interface to PubMed.
More on scientific openness....In the January 13 issue of The Scientist, Willie Schatz offers his summary of the swirling currents at the recent NAS conference on national security and research in the life sciences. Pressure to classify more research is increasing and resistance to this pressure is also increasing. Quoting John Hamre, president of CSIS: "The security community looks at the scientific community as at best disobedient and at worst traitorous. The scientific community looks at the security guys as a bunch of dopes. Both views are terribly wrong, of course."
In today's Toronto Star, Michael Geist gives very good overview of internet regulation issues, especially jurisdiction and IP issues, likely to be resolved by U.S. and Canadian courts during 2003.
The Institute of Physics has digitized the past issues of all its journals, back to 1874, and put them online in searchable, interlinked PDF files. This comes to more than 500 volume-years of journals and over 100,000 articles, including some of the early works of Schr�dinger and Boltzmann. Subscribers to the historical archive have access to full-text. Non-subscribers can run searches and read abstracts. Copies of the archive are also for sale. For more information, see the press release, visit the archive, or run a search.
In the January 10 Red Herring, Lawrence Lessig shows what happens when content companies are run by lawyers: they prosecute copyright infringement even when the unauthorized copying helps their bottom line. (PS: The lesson is that we won't know whether content companies can come up with business models compatible with consumer rights and digital freedom until these companies lift their gaze from a near-sighted focus on intellectual property rights and look for their own interests.)
The EFF has released version 2 of its report, Unintended Consequences: Four Years under the DMCA. Excerpt: "In practice, the anti-circumvention provisions have been used to stifle a wide array of legitimate activities, rather than to stop copyright piracy. As a result, the DMCA has developed into a serious threat to three important public policy priorities: Section 1201 chills free expression and scientific research...[it] jeopardizes fair use...[and it] impedes competition and innovation."
Bruce Perens is editing a new series of open-source books on open-source software for Prentice Hall. The text of each book will be published under open-sources licenses, allowing not only free access, downloading, copying, and redistribution, but also modification. Each book will be available free online and in a priced, printed edition. Perens is now looking for authors. Congratulations to Prentice-Hall for its willingness to support this method of publication.
An article entitled "Kepler Proposal and Design Document", dated January 2003, by K. Maly, X. Liu and M. Zubair, is available as a Word document via the Publications section of the Kepler website. The Kepler concept is the brainchild of the Digital Library Group at Old Dominion University. An item about Kepler is included in the FOS Guide.
The 15 presentations from the First Nordic Conference on Scholarly Communication (Lund, October 22-23, Copenhagen, October 24, 2002) are now online. All 15 are relevant to open access. Recommended.

Influenza A virus infection
Influenza, commonly known as "the flu", is an infectious disease caused by an influenza virus. Symptoms can be mild to severe. The most common symptoms include: a high fever, runny nose, sore throat, muscle pains, headache, coughing, and feeling tired. These symptoms typically begin two days after exposure to the virus and most last less than a week. The cough, however, may last for more than two weeks. (source)

When you hear that life changing news "it's cancer" from a physician, typically the first thing you do is turn to your support system, whoever that may be in your life. It can take even weeks just to process all of what is to come for most, and it certainly is a massive concern to your friends and family hearing the news. When the time comes for the actual treatment to begin, it can be grueling for all involved.
After weeks of radiation and/or chemotherapy you are exhausted, as are the folks taking you and holding your hand throughout the treatment appointments. From start to finish it can be a 24/7 operation administering medications, to getting up all hours of the night to help them when pain or nausea arises.
This exact constant need for support was recently displayed on the Bravo Network series, "Real Housewives of Atlanta" for cast members Nene and Gregg Leakes. Essence revealed that Gregg has been battling stage 3 colon cancer, and it has been the center of the season during the show. Some fans have criticized Mrs. Leakes for voicing her story on social media, as she's mentioned that her husband can be "grouchy" even when she's making an effort to help him.
The thing is, caring for someone you love fighting this awful disease can be trying on your time, your own physical and mental health, and your own home life just trying to keep up your prior routine before cancer. Many can't afford to just take a lengthy leave of absence to care for someone and it becomes way too much pressure on one person trying to keep the family afloat financially on top of the medical treatments.
Best case scenario is those that have a back up plan with a savings account, or some type of panning where the financial piece would be covered should a devastating illness such as cancer arise, but for millions of working class folks, that just isn't feasible. Going into treatment with a healthy attitude that there will be ups and downs is ideal. Trying to see both sides of what the other is experiencing is also worth a daily "Hey, how are you holding up", or a "Thanks for everything you do". It's the smallest things that can brighten someone's day just by being present and showing that support. You're in this together so always remember you're on the same team.

TV historian Neil Oliver tells us about restoring extinct animals, his favourite coastline and why he fell in love with Western Australia
You've been exploring Western Australia recently. What have you been up to?
I was part of the Dirk Hartog Island renovation. It's a conservation project called 'Return to 1616', with this being the date the Dutchman Dirk Hartog bumped into Western Australia, probably inadvertently.
There's a major conservation project there because, for more than 100 years, the island has been used for rearing sheep, which has devastated the ecosystem, as have the cats the settlers brought with them. The native marsupials – the western-barred bandicoot, the woylie, the dibbler, the bilby – were all driven to extinction.
Now, there's a project to remove the invasive species and reintroduce the missing animals. It's the biggest island in the world on which a project like this has been undertaken.
Coast in Western Australia (Dreamstime)
Why did you became interested in it?
It's a story that takes in so much, and on a wider scale, European contact with Australia had a very similar effect. Around 20 indigenous species were driven to extinction with another 80-odd put on the endangered list, because of the introduction of animals like rabbits and foxes, all these European creatures that don't belong here basically.
Will the reintroduced animals be strictly monitored or will nature take its course?
A bit of both. It's a gradual process. The final release will be a predator, the chuditch. It's a bit like a marsupial cat but, unlike domestic cats, it fits into the ecosystem.
When all the species are reintroduced, a natural balance should establish itself. It will take years of careful management, but people will have access to the island and there's hope that there will be some small-scale eco-tourism eventually, such as camping.
The island itself sounds amazing.
It's the most westerly point of the Australian mainland, and Shark Bay has been a World Heritage Site for over 25 years. You can see humpbacks and their calves, loggerhead turtles and dolphins, but most people haven't heard of it.
It's got the same level of significance as, say, the Great Barrier Reef because of the number of endangered species and what it can tell us about our history, but it's largely off the tourist track because it's a bit remote. Yet it's such a special place.
Shark Bay (Dreamstime)
Do you think a lot of Western Australia suffers a similar fate?
I just think it's off most travellers' radars. When people think about going to Australia, they think New South Wales or Sydney, or the beaches at Bondi or Manly. But this country is vast.
It's five hours' flight from Sydney to Perth, the same as between Dublin and Moscow, so Western Australia falls through the cracks. But it's got a big story to tell, and not just about Dutch contact but of its indigenous people.
You've now filmed Series Three of Coast Australia, which we're waiting to see in early 2017. What can we expect?
I went to Lord Howe Island, which is way off the eastern seaboard of Australia, and that's another wonderland of biodiversity.
I was also in the far north, in Western Australia's Kimberley. People have lived there for maybe 60,000 years and I went to explore its indigenous art and culture. But it's also a landscape that defies description. I only encountered it for the first time three years ago but it's on my mind a lot. It's just so different.
Lord Howe Island (Dreamstime)
What's your favourite coastline?
Definitely north-western Australia. But there's also the western isles of Scotland, looking west from the Outer Hebrides. Then there's Pembrokeshire in South Wales, which is stunning, as is Galway in Ireland, peering out at the Atlantic or across to the Aran Islands in the mouth of Galway Bay.
Are there any coastlines you've heard about but have not yet been to?
Yes, lots. I'd love to see the Pacific Northwest in British Columbia. Also, Alaska and South America, Tierra del Fuego especially.
Coastlines are your job now. But have you always been drawn to them?
Yes, since childhood. There's maybe something elemental about coasts. They tells us something about ourselves as a species, not least because we came from the sea millions of years ago. I mean, no one stands with their back to the water and looks at the land. Everyone always looks out at the sea for as long as they've got.
DVDs of the first two seasons of Coast Australia are available to buy now on Amazon. Series 3 is expected soon.
