The Jacksonville Jaguars did everything they could in order to ear their first victory of the 2021 regular season in Week 3 but it still wasn’t enough to upset the Arizona Cardinals, which won 31-19.
You have to give the Jags credit. They kept up with the Cardinals for three quarters. In fact, they were leading 19-7 early in the third quarter. Their defense held Arizona’s offense for most of the game but they ended up being too much for a young Jaguars’ team that it’s in the early stages of a rebuild.
After a rushing touchdown by running back James Robinson that gave the Jaguars a 19-7 lead in the third quarter, the Cardinals’ offense woke up and scored 14 unanswered points. Quarterback Kyler Murray went 28-of-34 for 316 yards with no passing touchdowns and one interception. On the other hand, the first overall pick in the 2019 draft scored a rushing touchdown. Also, running back James Conner chipped in with two rushing touchdowns of his own.
Even though the Cards averaged 3.0 yards per carry, they committed to running the ball, finishing the game with 91 yards on 30 carries. In the first two games of the season, the Jags had allowed just two rushing touchdowns.
The Jacksonville Jaguars’ offense cooled down in the 4th quarter.
Ok, the Jaguars’ defense couldn’t stop the Cardinals but what about the offense? Up until the fourth quarter, the Jaguars had a chance to win the game. However, their offense wasn’t able to keep up with the Cardinals. Early in the fourth quarter, with the game still within reach, rookie quarterback Trevor Lawrence fumbled the ball.
The Jaguars’ special teams also showed up. Early in the first quarter, Cardinals rookie Rondale Moore had a 27-yard return. But Jaguars wide receiver Jamal Agnew returned the favor not long after and scored a 109-yard touchdown on a failed field-goal attempt.
Robinson had a season-high 15 carries for 88 yards and one touchdown. The Jags have increased his workload after giving him the ball just five times in the season opener. Once again, Jacksonville fell behind and started to throw the ball often. But it’s clear they need to keep the second-year running back involved.
The Jaguars showed improvement on both offense and defense but not enough to beat the Cardinals. They surely expect that progress carries over to Week 4, when they will take on the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday Night Football.


Although this is separate to any application for planning permission, most often the CTMP will be a condition on the grant of planning permission, and any highway licences and/or parking suspensions required will also not be given until the CTMP is approved. Even where planning permission has been granted, if work deemed to be ‘significant’ starts on site before the CTMP has been formally approved then that will constitute a breach of planning permission and could result in enforcement action being taken by the council.
There are two important points to note about CTMPS:
- they cover specific works and specific disruption, so any changes to the CTMP have to be approved again by the council;
- not providing all the right information first time can cause significant delay (two months or more), so a comprehensive initial application is essential.
How we can help
Annabella is not just an interior designer but also an architectural designer, and has a wealth of practical knowledge gained managing both construction and refurbishment projects. She also has intimate knowledge of the London luxury property market. Rather than dealing with three or more separate contractors, Annabella’s clients have one point of contact and someone able to directly manage the entire process. Her ‘hands on’ experience in these three different areas gives Annabella a rare insight into things that can slow down a property development project, and the knowledge and experience to stop potential issues becoming real problems.
How it works
Following a visit the proposed site of works, we will produce a CTMP including a site plan / drawing to scale, together with the following information:
- a timescale for each phase of demolition, excavation and construction;
- a strategy to co-ordinate development with other ongoing projects nearby if at all possible;
- if work cannot be contained completely within the site) a scale drawing of the site layout and surrounding highway indicating hoarding, pedestrian routes, parking bay suspensions, and calculating the road width remaining to allow vehicle manouevre;
- access and exit routes of vehicles involved in that work;
- information about disruption or diversion of traffic, and any other non-standard use of public highways during this time;
- the number of parking suspensions required, their duration, and a detailed explanation for each suspension;
- general site access arrangements, and the number of vehicles estimated on a daily and weekly basis;
- information about measures put in place to reduce the risk to cyclists from HGV traffic, including training and membership of a recognised HGV safety scheme *;
- the hours during which vehicle access will be required, which must take into consideration peak hours including ‘school run’ times;
- information about the vehicle holding area, both on site and outside the borough, and the vehicle call up procedure;
- a strategy for utility service connection on site so that it, if possible, it can be carried out at the same time as similar or related work being carried out on adjacent land;
* Over half of all fatal collisions with cyclists involve an HGV. The council has signed the London Cycling Campaign’s Safer Lorries pledge.

Southeast Polk girls suffer second loss of season
Waukee came to Southeast Polk on Friday night with revenge on its mind after a 74-41 home loss to the Rams on Dec. 21.
Since then, the Warriors had won 7 of 8 games and climbed to No. 7 in the Class 5A rankings.
Meanwhile, the No. 2 Rams had amassed a 15-1 record and won 12 straight.
Waukee jumped out to a quick start Friday night, scoring 25 points in the opening quarter to take a 7 point lead.
The Rams were plagued by early foul trouble putting Waukee was in the bonus before the end of the first quarter. The tandem of Grace Larkins and Maggie McGraw scored all 18 of the team’s points in the first period.
The physical play of Waukee took its toll on Southeast Polk.
After extending its lead to 10 points at halftime, the Warriors held the Rams to 3 points in the third quarter.
Waukee used a ball control offense that took substantial time off the clock and led by 19 going into the fourth quarter.
Southeast Polk was never able to mount any type of challenge in the fourth and lost the game 66-43.
The Rams shot only 15-47 from the field and were able to secure only four offensive rebounds. Waukee shot 22 of 46, had 9 offensive rebounds, and hit 9 three pointers.
McGraw led the Rams with 20 points and Larkins added 15. Sami Albertson added 6 points and Rylie Kruse and Liza Sutten each had 1.
Waukee’s leading scorers were: Anna Brown, 20; Paitlyn Rau, 17; and Jori Nieman, 16.
There was little time to reflect on the loss. The Rams had a rescheduled game Saturday against Urbandale.
Back-to-back three pointers by Albertson opened an 8-point lead early in the second quarter and led by 10 at halftime.
Opening the third quarter Southeast Polk unleashed a 10-1 run and took control of the game. This lead would grow to as much as 18 in the final quarter and the Rams won the game 86-70.
Four players for the Rams scored in double figures. McGraw lead all scorers with 32 points on 7 of 13 shooting. Larkins scored 23 points and added 10 rebounds.

Review of: Vintage Style Boonie Hat
Just like an original I had from a friend of my dads in the early 80's that was from 1971 in Vietnam. Very well made.

Review of: Boker Arbolito Esculta Ebony Fixed Blade Knife
This knife caught my eye while browsing last month's catalogue. I thought about it, then pulled the trigger, intrigued by the product description and the N695 steel. I thought it would be an ideal utility knife for our rural homestead. It was every bit of what I expected, and quite a bit more. By that, I mean that it is a large, heavy hunting knife, tough enough to handle any task. Therefore, I will continue to use my old Gainey skinner around the house, and this beautiful knife will likely find its way under the Christmas tree for my elk hunting son. To sum up, it's not quite "Crocodile Dundee," but bigger and heavier than it looks in the listing.

Very sharp blade. Another hit with KA-BAR quality! Heavier than it looks.

Review of: Trail Master
She isnt the fanciest gal at the dance but she can be counted on to perform well in a pinch or otherwise in day to day use. Ive had four of these and still own my first. This is a large knife at 9.5 inch blade but it can be used for smaller tasks as well as larger. I mate mine with a smaller blade and made a sheath to carry both, piggyback for the smaller.
Ive used mine for chopping wood, butchering meat and even for kitchen tasks. The TM does them all as required. Could be used for "fighting" but Ive never had that need...
This knife is beyond belief compared to most other mass-market knives. The only thing I would ask for is a couple inches of serrations for cutting boxes and rope etc. Cold Steel could sell a partially serrated blade at no great additional manufacturing cost.
All told, excellent knife. When it came out it changed my performance expectations of what a good blade can do, and displaced several other knives I'd used for years...

Review of: Elk Ridge Easy Carry Hunter
At first I found the knife Excellent but the keeper tab was exceedingly difficult to snap. That's not quite right. It snaps just fine and stays snapped. It's just not do-able? with the knife inside the sheath.
Well, I stretched the tab until it snapped shut and rubbed the strap

Review of: Ironwood Walking Staff
Hey, it's a STICK, not a miracle of modern technology! That said, it is an admirable stick, a little longer than I would use normally, but longer is better than too short. As for the wood itself, it is very solid in the hand, and puts up with forces transverse to its length nicely. I've not yet tested it for shock, but it should do very well.

Review of: United Cutlery Colombian Raptor Sawback Machete with Nylon Sheath
Okay, I don't not need this machete. A total impulse buy, but I love it!!! This is one powerful wielding blade, a very brutal rugged design. I bought this because I fell in love with the tan plastic grip, which is extremely comfortable. This would make an excellent outdoor short machete for cutting brush and a saw blade for cutting branches. I hope I will find some use for it, but until then I just admire it!

Syazwan bin Haji Suni of S&R Aquafarm from Brunei is one of 10 people to receive the runner-up prize in the prestigious Shell LiveWIRE Top Ten Innovators Awards.
It is a global competition among Shell LiveWIRE alumni, which highlights and rewards businesses that demonstrate excellence in innovation, and gives entrepreneurs a chance to shine on a global platform.
Located in Tutong, S&R Aquafarm produces herbs through an aquaponic system that uses solar energy to power the water pumps.
The award ceremony – at the head office of Brunei Shell Petroleum Company Sdn Bhd (BSP) – saw Managing Director of BSP and Shell Country Chair Dr Ceri M Powell presenting a USD10,000 cheque to S&R Aquafarm, represented by Meryyanah binti Haji Umar.
Dr Ceri M Powell shared that BSP is proud to play its part in supporting Brunei’s local entrepreneurs, especially in the field of agriculture and aquaculture.
“People and Country is a key priority for BSP. We are in full support of the vision of His Majesty Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah Mu’izzaddin Waddaulah ibni Al-Marhum Sultan Haji Omar ‘Ali Saifuddien Sa’adul Khairi Waddien, Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan of Brunei Darussalam to encourage more youth to participate in entrepreneurship, through delivering innovative and sustainable ways to develop the capability of Bruneian talent and businesses.
“This incredible achievement will hopefully inspire more businesses, communities and society to also make that transition towards a more sustainable future,” she added.
When asked about his win, Syazwan said, “We have been in this journey since 2011 and we are constantly looking for creative ways to improve the efficiencies of the aquaponics system. We pitched the idea to incorporate solar to the aquaponics system to LiveWIRE mentor Haji Yusrin, and we prepared a business plan for the LiveWIRE Business Awards 2019 competition. Alhamdulillah, we won third place, and we were awarded with the ‘The Most Innovative Enterprise Award’ on the same day.
“By early September 2019, we learned that S&R Aquafarm was shortlisted for the Top 21 Innovators award. The final Global Top 10 Innovators was decided by public votes. Alhamdulillah, S&R Aquafarm attained the runner-up position in the Global Top 10 Innovators. We are so grateful for this achievement, not only for S&R Aquafarm, but on behalf of Brunei as well. Moving forward, S&R Aquafarm is looking to expand the business into a commercial production, Insya Allah,” he added.
This year, Shell LiveWIRE partnered with Shell Global Commercial – which supplies lubricants, aviation fuels, bitumen, sulphur and related services to one million business customers in 150 markets – to deliver a competition focussed on the circular economy.
Shell aims to reward entrepreneurs that help move the world away from the linear economy model – taking, using, and disposing of products – towards an economy that designs waste out of the system.
This year’s categories include: Food and Agriculture, Energy and Mobility, and Sustainable Future.The winners from each category received USDD20,000, while the runners-up from each category received a USDD10,000.
S&R Aquafarm under the Food and Agriculture category, faced stiff competition out of 98 applications from 19 countries. From there, 21 finalists competed in a public vote, which drew in more than 18,000 votes from 144 countries. This is a first for Brunei since the launch of the Shell LiveWIRE Top Ten Innovators (TTI) in 2015.
The 2019 Top Ten Innovators judging panel included Patrick Carré, Vice President, Global Key Accounts & Global Business; Jeff Wee, 2018 Top Ten Innovators winner and founder of WormingUp; Maarten van Dijk, Managing Director of SkyNRG; Susan Preston, Managing Partner of SeaChange Fund; and Wijnand de Wit, partner at Dalberg.

Filmmaker Karan Johar often has been on the receiving end for promoting nepotism in Bollywood. Recently, an old video of the filmmaker confessing that he tried to sabotage Anushka Sharma’s career in her initial years in Bollywood has gone viral. Filmmakers Vivek Agnihotri and Apurva Asrani react to the viral video.
At an event in 2016, the filmmaker-producer had said that he asked Aditya Chopra not to cast Anushka in Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi. Many expressed rage over Karan’s confession as the old video surfaced on Reddit.
Sharing the same video that starred Karan Johar sitting beside Anushka, Apurva Asrani tweeted on Thursday, “’I totally wanted to murder Anushka Sharma’s career’ – Karan Johar confesses to Rajeev Masand and Anupama Chopra in 2016. Said in jest, I’m sure, but still a worthy point in the raging insider-outsider debate.”
Reacting to Apurva’s tweet, Vivek Agnihotri tweeted, “Someone’s only hobby is to make or break careers. If Bollywood is in the gutter, it’s because of some people’s dirty ‘backroom’ politics against talented outsiders.”

Karan Johar was accompanied by Anushka and Aishwarya Rai at the 18th MAMI Mumbai Film Festival in 2016, which was held around the release of his directorial, Ae Dil Hai Mushkil.
Making a confession in front of Anushka, who was in a jolly mood throughout, Karan said, “I totally wanted to, completely murder Anushka Sharma’s career. Because when Aditya Chopra showed me her image, I was like, ‘no, no, mad or what, you signing her, you crazy! There is no need for you to sign this Anushka Sharma’. There was another lead actress at that time who I wanted Adi to sign, and I was totally behind the scene sabotaging her completely. The movie also I was reluctantly watching Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi.”

Michele Kovack here with a fun summer birthday party bag! The cute sand pail is perfect for a late August celebration. It was cut using my Silhouette. I added sand to the bucket and shovel using glossy accents. I added a cute red lobster to the pail and added glossy accents to his body.
I added ribbon and two...yes two...SRM sentiment stickers! The round happy birthday sticker is from the Take 2 Stickers by the Dozen. It was adhered to a white scalloped punched piece. (Told you I would be using them again soon!) ;) I also added a wooden clothespin that I had painted yellow. I gave it a few polka dots and glued a red rhinestone to it. The mini "celebrate" is from SRM's Birthday Birdie Stickers by the Dozen. Love using mini stickers on my projects!
And look at how many stickers you get on one sheet of Take 2 stickers! You can make 11 more of these fun birthday party bags from just one sheet. And there are 10 colors of punched pieces from which to choose.
Enjoy these last few weeks of summer my friends! Hope you can use some of my crafty techniques on a project that you do soon!

High to Low Avg. Rafaeli puts forward some large principles — his advocacy of close word-spacing is that — but for the most part his book is fixed in a particular culture and a particular tradition: Photographs and illustrations have content and meanings, just as surely as words do, and so can be included in the consideration of design for the reader.

State officials must maintain smart water policies
Coachella Valley water agencies are again making the case that the state should ease its drought restrictions, especially for those here in the desert.
Officials argue that this region’s unique circumstances – the hot climate, a varying tourist season/year-round population mix that distorts actual per capita usage and access to groundwater as well as surface water sources – should be considered in the decision-making process rather than following a more one-size-fits-all approach statewide.
In addition, though about three-fourths of the state remains under “severe” drought conditions or worse, the rain and snow of the El Niño winter have brought relief California hasn’t seen in years, filling the state's two largest reservoirs and boosting the levels of many others.
Still, state officials considering another easing of water restrictions must proceed with caution.
Water agencies urge California to relax drought targets
El Niño weakens, here comes La Niña: meteorologists
California residents, including those in our desert, stepped up when challenged to cut water use in the face of one of the most punishing droughts in history. Gov. Jerry Brown demanded a statewide, 25 percent cut in usage, but desert residents were asked to trim even more from what is seen as larger than average per capita use. Desert Water Agency, under the most recent rule, is mandated to cut usage by 32 percent from 2013 levels.
DWA customers managed a 15 percent cut last month. Since the cuts went into effect last June DWA has seen a 26 percent cut, missing its overall mark.
DWA General Manager Mark Krause argues that his agency and others in the desert face the aforementioned unique situations and have factored in drought concerns in the planning of water resources use all along. For that reason, Krause said in a recent letter to the State Water Resources Board, that conservation targets should be eased for those areas no longer under extreme drought conditions and desert agencies should be given more leeway to account for the harsher climate and responsible use of groundwater as well as recycled water.
“It is vital that we retain the trust of our community so that when we face drought conditions again in the future, people take restrictions seriously,” Krause wrote. “The issue of credibility is important throughout the state, but especially in communities where drought conditions are not as severe and supplies are healthy.”
Desert residents have made sacrifices during this rough period. Driving through the valley, one can’t help notice the shift from what had been fairly uniform mile after mile of green turf to more appropriate desert landscaping or – for those not able to make the switch yet – brown lawns.
We’re still not where we need to be on this journey toward a new, water smart culture. Too many broad expanses of purely ornamental greenbelt remain, and that is one of the main culprits when it comes to unnecessary water use in this desert climate.
Other signs indicate California is not out of the woods yet.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Climate Prediction Center reported in mid-April that the current El Niño is weakening and there is a 70 percent chance that this fall will see the arrival of La Niña.
El Niño’s flip side typically means dry weather for the U.S. Southwest and parts of California. So this year’s water gains could be decimated by a dry 2016-17 winter.
Meanwhile, another cut in water supply could emerge from a bargaining table rather than the whims of Mother Nature.
The Desert Sun’s Ian James reported last week that California, Arizona and Nevada as well as the federal government are negotiating how all three states might reduce their draws from the increasingly stressed Colorado River. The goal of the effort – which officials say still faces tough talks between water districts and officials in each state that could take another year – is to keep more water in Lake Mead.
Lake Mead currently stands at about 1,077 feet elevation, but the water level is expected to continue dropping. The Bureau of Reclamation could declare a shortage this summer if predictions have the level falling below 1,075 feet next year. The federal Interior Department could take over how water is allocated if the lake falls to 1,025 feet.
Maintaining control of their own destiny is the incentive for the states to agree to a deal that would cut water to all. That likely would mean the river water Coachella Valley water agencies rely on won’t be there, or at least not all of it.
These concerns are just signs that this is our new normal.
State water officials meeting May 18 should listen to the concerns of DWA, the Coachella Valley Water District and the broader Association of California Water Agencies as they consider possible modifications to the drought mandate. But the ultimate decision made must continue to build on the progress seen to date in changing our water culture, especially in the desert.
We need more, not less, when it comes to incentives to swap out turf and boost the use of recycled water. Water agencies must lead the way when it comes to pushing conservation – be that through providing funds to boost efficiency or through new rate structures that punish wasteful use.
The state – which just two years ago adopted a long-range strategy to sustainably manage California’s groundwater supplies – should make sure its ongoing water restrictions keep all of these agencies working toward these vital goals.
The relief from a wet winter must not be squandered by a return to wasteful ways.

From someone that struggled with thyroid disease and Hashimoto’s Autoimmune, getting the answers you need can be difficult. I learned a lot during my journey of healing my thyroid and reversing autoimmune.
There are many thyroid patients that turn to conventional medicine but are not getting the results they need. They are on medication, but still not feeling better. I can tell you one thing, it’s not always the medication to blame. Thyroid disease, as well as autoimmune disease, is at an all-time high. Why are many people going to the doctors just to be told everything looks normal? When their lab ranges are “normal” their symptoms are ignored. If they are feeling many symptoms shouldn’t that be shown in testing? Well, there are secrets to why this may be happening.
In today’s episode, we will be discussing the missing pieces to the puzzle when it comes to conventional medicine and thyroid disease. Make sure to subscribe and share!

Can we all stop and take a moment to appreciate the people we have met whilst travelling? I have been lucky enough to have crossed paths with some of the very best...
They are the friends you never knew you could possibly want or need and then you meet by chance, high on life, say in transit on an overnight bus from Bangkok to a tropical Thai Island or along the Mekong River on the slow boat from Pai to Luang Prabang. You could be sat on the sofa of a backpackers, cooking up a storm in a hostel kitchen or sharing a bunk in a 12 bed dorm. More often than not, a bar crawl will be involved!
Travel can be brutal, it forces you to step outside your comfort zone, trust strangers and discard all the familiar comforts of home - It goes against everything your parents ever taught you about safety and control.
Those I have met on my trips (both near and far) have become my sunshine sisters and soul brothers... Together celebrating the highs and lows of life as we navigate our way through paradise; learning about ourselves and each other, catching and cheering one another on through the good times and the bad. More often than not it’s these people you meet along the way that make it all worthwhile. You can be absolutely anywhere, the location isn’t important here, it’s about those who are by your side. Sharing the moments you can’t put into words, together... United in your search for adventure, your routes collide and the consequent connection that develops is unbreakable.
I met Fernanda when I moved into a house share in Auckland. She was Mexican and she was beautiful, inside and out. Fernanda was unlike any other person I have ever met; this girl dreamed BIG and then she chased those dreams until they were accomplished. She was passionate, intelligent and ambitious but most importantly, Fernanda was kind. She was nothing short of incredible with an unforgettable smile! During the short time that I lived with Fernanda we became family, sharing a house together when we were thousands of miles from home.
Fernanda passed away on February 1st 2018 aged 29 years old, leaving her amazing husband and family behind. She had her whole entire life ahead of her. Fernanda will never celebrate her 30th birthday or wake to watch another sunrise. I still can’t believe she has gone and I certainly cannot comprehend the unimaginable pain her parents and partner endure in her absence, the very thought makes my heart ache on a daily basis.
This month marks a year since Fernanda passed and I will never forget the shock as I scrolled down my Facebook feed to read the news. It stopped me in my tracks as I read over the status once, twice, five times more. It didn’t make sense. I did not (and still can’t) understand or accept that this could happen to anyone, but certainly not Fernanda in the prime of her life. I later learned that Fernanda had gone into hospital for a routine operation, she was a rare blood type and due to complications she required an urgent blood transfusion but one could not be located.
Tonight I have given blood as I have done so every 16 weeks since that devastating day and I will continue to do so for as long as I can. I’m not a particular special type, just one of the most common but this doesn’t matter, it’s the donating that counts.
Each time I get nervous, but you know what - It’s SO easy and I mean ridiculously easy! So my friends near and far, I urge you to take a moment to think about who you would bleed for. Please register online and become a donor if you can. It’s a quick and straightforward process and one that really can save a life. You never know when you, a family member or friend like Fernanda may need a vital transfusion.
Finally, to my sunshine sisters and soul brothers, who are now spread far and wide across every corner of the globe, no matter how much time passes you are forever in thoughts! Thank you for such wonderful memories and thank you for reminding me to trust in the unknown and live and love to the absolute limit of my heart and beyond. And Fernanda, until our paths cross once again, Buenos Noches Chica.

Glancing over the wall in Furnivall Gardens adjacent to Hammersmith Reach I spotted (image below) these mysterious gates and the railings protruding out onto the mud banks of low water, a little internet investigation back at home uncovered the fascinating story of one of London’s ‘lost rivers’ – Stamford Brook.
Stamford Brook is a tributary of the Thames, and is itself formed by the confluence of several smaller streams, arising in West London, and flowing into Hammersmith Creek on the Tideway. (ps. the Tideway is the name given to the part of the river that is subject to tides ie. the stretch of water downstream from Teddington Lock and is just under 99 miles long.)
Hammersmith Creek was the outflow river of Stamford Brook, and used to run through what is now the busy King Street, into the Thames at the present-day site of Furnivall Gardens.
Until the early 19th century Hammersmith Creek was navigable over this distance, and was the scene of much industry with malt houses and boatbuilders along the banks, as well as being a route for cargo transportation. However, by the early 20th century the creek was no longer the site of such activity, and it was filled in 1936 with Furnivall Gardens being built on the location in 1951. Today, only the drainage tunnel visible in the photos remains, as evidence of Hammersmith Creek.
Stamford may be a corruption of the stoney ford or sandy ford by which the Brook was crossed by King Street. Stamford Brook has given its name to the surrounding area between Hammersmith and Chiswick and to local London Underground station, Stamford Brook tube station. Stamford Brook has no connection with Stamford Bridge, the area of the Chelsea Football Club ground which is also situated in West London, despite the similarity of names. Stamford Bridge is built near the site of a bridge which carried the Kings Road over another tributary stream called Counter’s Creek.
Stamford Brook is a complex waterway, who’s source is debated, as the West London area is the confluence of numerous small stream (now almost all culverted and lost under the infrastructure of present-day London) meandering towards the the Thames and feeding several closely aligned waterways such as the Bollo Brook and Stamford Brook. However, generally speaking sources seem to agree that the Stamford Brook is made up of three converging streams which only flow as a unified waterway on their final approach to the Thames. One, Mill Hill Brook, originates around Mill Hill Road to the west in Acton; the second stream, the Warple, rises near Acton mainline station, and the eastern (and seemingly unnamed) stream rises in the open land of Wormwood Scrubs close to the once fashionable Old Acton Wells spa where the mildly laxative local spring water was sold in the 18th C.
Flanking the steps of the rear, formally the front, entrance to Hammersmith Town Hall are two colossal carved heads of Father Thames. When the architect E. Berry Webber designed the Town Hall (which was built in 1938-9) he incorporated the heads in commemoration of the fact that the building stands astride the old Hammersmith Creek.
Perhaps the story of the Stamford Brook doesn’t quite end with it being constrained and culverted as an ignominious drain, as recently a group of Hammersmith architects have proposed schemes to reconnect Hammersmith with the river, by raising Stamford Brook to the surface – it’s a tantalising prospect.

Wet in the garden
It rained in the night, my leg is still painful so no real walk although I did go between showers and took a couple of photos, the winter buddlea is flowering, and perfuming the garden. I think this osteospermum is called black widow, interesting colour and shape of flowers and the little pink azalea I bought from Woolies last year is flowering well by the path to the back door. I have been re potting a heap of succulents and moving some indoors as it is still so wet outside. I am dying to get out and plant a few plants I have in pots in a new piece of bed I want something in near the clothes line I hope we get a bit more sun soon but I really dont min d the rain. We dont want it to stop early and go into summer heat yet. Almost September, I do not look forward to summer much these days, if only we had mild damp winters and mild warm with some rain summers. I am dreaming.

Memory and attention span are dependent upon how quickly your brain can update the information it receives, and manual muscle testing is a wonderful way to measure it.
…FACT: The average person loses 7-10 milliseconds (2-3%) of brain speed every decade starting at the fifth decade (at about the 40th year of life). That loss may not seem like much, but many learning disabilities, psychological problems and other seemingly unrelated health problems can be linked to slower brain speeds, and 10 milliseconds is a lot when it comes to your brain’s timing. A mistimed brain is just one of hundreds of health issues related to brain chemistry.
Manual Muscle Testing is Functional Neurology
The same idea is true for manual muscle testing. Muscles should demonstrate reciprocal function. When one muscle turns on to move a bone, the muscle that does the opposite activity must reduce its tone so the first muscle can do its work. Conversely, one very good reason why a normally facilitated muscle (a muscle that tests “strong” by itself) becomes inappropriately functionally inhibited (or a muscle that tests “weak” by itself) is because your spinal cord and brain cannot update the information they receive from your muscles fast enough. After treatment when that weak muscle works normally again, it means that your brain/muscle timing is back in sync.
Everybody has brain timing errors. They are a regular consequence of our daily environment. However, your muscles should function normally (reciprocally) when they are tested. There should be a functional give and take to their performance–the signals that enter the cord and brain should be timed properly. Any muscle testing response that displays a breakdown of the normal neurological timing is pathology. Your muscles should be able to withstand the demands of manual muscle testing.
Muscles that cannot perform properly relative to manual muscle testing procedures are one indication of a brain-based problem. For the most part brain-based problems can be fixed, but first they must be properly diagnosed.

Re: [neoplatonism] Re: Origin of the Theory of Forms
There was a book several years ago on early Zoroastrianism and Greek Philosophy. I think the author was a Zoroastrian scholar named Afnan. It was published by the Philosophical Library. I don't recall the merits of his argument but he suggested that an earlier cultural model for the forms might have been the Amesha Spentas as archetypes of kinds of being along with fravashis as spiritual archetypes of each living being (plant, animals, humans, yazatas/angel/demi-gods) and daena (Ahura mazda's conscience/wisdom) as the source and template of the whole creation much like the form of the Good.
Well now, that would be a turn up for the books!

After a rough leak months ago, Kanye West’s official video for his single, “Monster,” has finally hit the web for real, and for better or worse, it was certainly worth the wait to see.
Yeezy is joined by his partner in crime and big brother, Jay-Z, Rick Ross, and the ohhhh so fine Nicki Minaj in a spooky, off-the-wall and semi-graphic video that, by its own admission, touches on the racy and controversial.
With an introductory disclaimer that reads, “The following content is in no way to be interpreted as misogynistic or negative towards any groups of people. It is an art piece and it shall be taken as such,” the video launches into women hanging by nooses, Kanye setting up a threesome with corpses, Jay-Z raps over dead women and evil Nicki Minaj busts out the S&M gear to torture her good self. Seriously. Nicki Minaj give HERSELF a lapdance. This cant get any better.
I’ve been pretty into dubstep for a while now and rusko’s song hold on was one of the first songs I heard, so it is not new by any means. But when you mash it up with one of jay-z’s great verses it reemerges as a great tune call Hov Holds On, hollaaaaaaaa.
While it is a fact that Eminem has nothing to do with this mixtape being released, it is definitely worth posting for everyone’s enjoyment. The mixtape composed of 9 songs has some really old stuff, like Emulate with Obie, but it also has some unreleased tracks I am guessing are from the Relapse time, were released by Studioleaks.com. The CD has a horrible DJ on it who does a pretty bad job mixing the songs together but it is what it is. For the most part it is Eminem just spitting hard on some tracks, so take it for what it’s worth. My favorite song would probably be G.O.A.T.,
“So when Weezy says that he’s better than Jay-z
Please, be that just subliminally
Means he thinks Jigga’s the best and that he’s
The only one up in that league, see
And it’s easy just to consider me one of the greatest white rappers there is
Knowing god damn well that I’m one of the best motherfucking rappers who ever lived period.”
Here is the first single “H.A.M.” off the anticipated collaboration CD from Kanye and Jay-Z called “Watch the Throne”. Hopefully this superstar collabo goes better for Jay-Z than that terrible Best of Both Worlds CD with R. Kelly.
This dropped a few days ago but I couldnt find a good enough quality video to share with ZootNation. This is a pretty solid line up and an even better topic that they all are rhyming on. Its nice to see a group of rappers finally acknowledging the fact no one is into lyrics any more and all kids now a days care about is a hot beat. Its kind of funny that 50 is on this song since thats pretty much how he gets fans and sells records. Finally Jay Z can say he redeemed himself a little bit since he got ‘murdered on his own shit’ by Eminem on Renegade. He actually lays it down pretty nice on this track. Enjoy before its pulled!
Featuring one of Andy Warhol’s Rorschach paintings on the cover, Hov’s first book takes an intimate look at 36 songs from his deep-ass catalog by providing insight from the man himself into some of his more provocative and memorable lyrics. He says:
When I first started working on this book, I told my editor that I wanted it to do three important things. The first was to make the case that hip-hop lyrics—not just my lyrics, but those of every great MC—are poetry if you look at them closely enough. The second was I wanted the book to tell a little bit of the story of my generation, to show the context for the choices we made at a violent and chaotic crossroads in recent history. And the third piece was that I wanted the book to show how hip-hop created a way to take a very specific and powerful experience and turn it into a story that everyone in the world could feel and relate to.
Here he is speaking on his recently released “Most Kings”
“Do not think that I don’t know where I’m at right now. I’m also honored to be on this fuckin’ stage in the Bronx, the fuckin’ birthplace of Hip Hop.”- Eminem
Last night marked the first of Eminem and Jay-Z’s two sold-out performances at Yankees Stadium in the Bronx. Th performance was a star-studded event that found Hip Hop’s two reigning titans sharing the stage with a plethora of guest artists and zootpatrol was there first hand. I know everyone is hearing how incredible the show was but it truly was a once in a life time event that I am so happy I got to attend. I am not going to bore you with a play by play review because everything I write will end with me just saying how awesome it was.
Highlights for me though was when Dr. Dre came out as well as 50 Cent during Em’s performance. Chris Martin from Coldplay coming out during Jay-z’s set was also a highlight as well as Beyonce doing a song with Hov with jay remarking “Damn that girl is baaaaad.” when she left the stage. I really liked how Jay-Z paid homage to Notorious BIG in a giant way, playing a few Biggie songs before playing a clip of an old interview on Big explaining performing in front of 30,000 people on the big screen, it was a nice touch. From beginning to end it was just unbelievable leaving me getting excited just thinking back on the night. If anyone reads this and does not have tickets for tonight, do yourself a favor and just go to the stadium and scalp them, sell your body if you need to, it’s worth it.
Highlights of this video:
1. How awesome is 50 Cents glow in the dark gear.
2. Dr. Dre telling us he isn’t going to let us down with Detox gave me chills, he is going in HARDDDD.
3. Yankee Stadium looked unreal last night with the sold out crowd bouncing the whole time.
4. Loved how Eminem didn’t have Drake come on stage to do the chorus of Forever live, that talentless ass bag doesn’t deserve to be on the same stage.
Beyonce definitely winked, smiled, and asked me to have sex with her back stage after the show. Unfortunately security didn’t believe me and they wouldn’t let me through, freakin cock blockers.
Like many I am a rap fan, or hip-hop, whatever you want to call it. I think everyone knows by now that rap has become accepted in the music industry and is bigger then rock and roll in some peoples eyes. The thing I have against rap these days is there is a bunch of no talent idiots who tend to just rap about cars, women, and money, hell I could make a list of ridiculous Lil Wayne lyrics that will have you laughing your ass off (I’ll make a post on that topic soon). But below are some very highly respected, and rich rappers in the game today, that still say some awkward and terrible lines from time to time, here are 10 that come to mind.
Jay-Z – $63 Million
Diddy – $30 Million
Well, that really didnt take too long did it? Nets part owner Jay Z and Russian bagillionare Mikhail Prokhorov really want NYC fans to know that the Knicks are no longer the only act in town. The NETS will be in Brooklyn officially, and they are ready to make some noise. Step 1, hang a giant billboard across from The Garden mocking the Knicks, Step 2, let Jay Z sweet talk Lebron into coming to Brooklyn.
If you’re anywhere near Madison Square Garden, take a look at the building on 34th and 8th and you will see most of Mikhail Prokhorov’s face and by the end of today, Jay-Z’s face will be complete. Today is the start of the free-agent negotiation period and this mural couldnt have been placed at a better time. The Knicks owner James Dolan didnt take kindly to the 225-x-95-foot mural featuring Prokhorov and Jay-Z standing next to each other with “The Blueprint For Greatness” and a Nets logo on it. He called the league, and he also gave Hove a call. Im sure that conversation went real well.
Dolan: Umm, Hi. Sean Carter.. I mean, Jay.. Mr. Z. I dont really like that mural you hung outside my building.
Jay Z: ALLOW ME TO REINTRODUCE MYSELF. MY NAME IS HOVE!!!
Jay Z: ASK ABOUT ME, NIGGA ASK A BOUT ME!!!
Dolan: Ask who?
Jay Z: ITS YA BOYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!
One statement certainly seems to be that the Nets wanted the Knicks to know they plan to be winners in free agency if not rule the big city. Remember what Prokhorov said last month:
“I have only one secret. We’re going to turn Knicks fans into Nets fans. It’s a part of success.”
Dr. Dre’s Under Pressure got leaked today, but it is an unfinished and old version. The track has no hook in it, it’s unmixed and unmastered. The word is, that Under Pressure is off Detox. Although it’s not done we are loving how it is looking so far, something to just wet our whistles until the CD actually comes out sometime in 2028. “I want to set the record straight for everybody who’s been waiting to hear my music. The song that’s on the internet is an incomplete song that I’m still working on. When its ready, you’ll be hearing it from me.” – Dr. Dre

The tea leaves are hard to read. The top issues on the NAM agenda are Iran and Syria. One is about a war that Israel itches to start, and the other is about a war that the Assad regime is conducting against the Syrian people. The very fact that the NAM summit is taking place in Tehran shows that there remains support for Iran against any precipitous action.

There is no hesitancy to spend money on the military, no desire to shift some of that treasure toward those who are out of work and desperate.
