Green Chile Peppers
Inventory, lb : 0
Green chile peppers widely vary in size and shape, appearing slightly curved to straight, and can contain different levels of spice depending on the individual variety. The pods can be long and slender, tapering to a point, or they can be wider with a conical shape, tapering to a rounded, blunt end. The skin is generally glossy and waxy, ranging from pale green to dark green, and the surface can be smooth or covered in wrinkles giving the pod a crinkled appearance. Underneath the surface, the flesh can vary in thickness and is crisp and pale green, encasing a central cavity filled with round and flat, cream-colored seeds. Green chile peppers are tangy, sharp, and pungent with a vegetal, earthy flavor and may be heatless or contain a moderate level of spice.
Green chile peppers are available year-round.
Green chile peppers are botanically a part of the Capsicum genus and belong to the Solanaceae or nightshade family. There are many different varieties of peppers that are encompassed within the broad Green chile pepper category, and the majority of these peppers are immature pods that have not ripened to full maturity. Native to Central and South America, Green chile peppers have been spread across the world through trade and are a popular culinary ingredient used for their tangy flavor and milder spice. Green chile peppers are widely used in Asian, Caribbean, and Latin American cuisine in both fresh and cooked applications.
Green chile peppers are a good source of vitamins A, C, B, and E, potassium, and calcium. The peppers also contain capsaicin, which is a chemical compound that triggers the brain to feel the sensation of heat or spice. The capsaicin content in the green pepper is slightly lower than in its fully mature red state, but capsaicin has been shown to help stimulate the circulatory system and contains anti-inflammatory properties.
Green chile peppers are best suited for both raw and cooked applications such as stir-frying, sautéing, roasting, frying, grilling, and boiling. When fresh, Green chile peppers can be diced and added to salsas, salads, dips, relishes, and hot sauces. They can also be lightly stir-fried with vegetables, chopped and tossed into soups, stews, and curries, baked into bread, used as a topping for tacos, rice, and pizza, or pickled for extended use. Green chile peppers can be incorporated into savory dishes and are highly used in Southeast Asian, Indian, Cajun, and Latin cuisines. The peppers, depending on the variety, can also be used to infuse oils or alcohol and are often chopped and mixed into margaritas for a tangy bite. Green chile peppers pair well with meats such as poultry, beef, and pork, seafood, green tomatoes, sweet peppers, red onions, garlic, fruits such as mango, pineapple, and peaches, and herbs such as cilantro, mint, and oregano. The peppers will keep 1-2 weeks when loosely stored whole and unwashed in a paper or plastic bag in the refrigerator.
Green chile peppers are widely used in Indian cuisine where the tangy, bright flavors and moderate heat are utilized as a flavoring in everyday cooking. Chile peppers are cultivated across India, and the extreme temperatures and high humidity contribute to many different pungent varieties that are available in large quantities for culinary use. Green chile peppers are often utilized in tadka, which is an Indian cooking technique that uses spices, peppers, and aromatics to create a flavorful base oil for cooking curries, rice dishes, dals, and lentils. This technique is what gives Indian food its famous, aromatic quality. Green chile peppers are also used in traditional dishes such as tikka masala or vindaloo, which are creamy curries, and pakodas, which is a popular street food of crispy fritters served with fried split Green chile peppers.
Green chile peppers are native to Central and South America and have been cultivated since ancient times. Spanish and Portuguese explorers then introduced the pepper in the 15th and 16th centuries to Europe and Asia where it has been widely developed for ornamental and culinary use. Today there are many different varieties of Green chile peppers that are grown around the world in Asia, Africa, Europe, Australia, the United States, Central America, and South America. The fresh peppers are commonly found through specialty grocers and farmers markets, and some varieties are cultivated by home gardeners.

State leaders are debating if South Carolina should increase its minimum wage.
Some people, Brandon Johnson, says they should. He works as a shift manager at the Florence Checkers, just one of many fast food restaurants in town. He says his employees deserve more than what minimum wage offers.
“We work hard, so everybody deserves to get the right pay,” Johnson. That “right pay” would mean increasing the minimum wage, he says.
Minimum wage stands $7.25 an hour here in South Carolina. Some state lawmakers want to see it jump to $8.25; some members of Congress want to increase it to $10.10 an hour and peg it to inflation.
Small business owners say they won't be able to afford that kind of increase.
“Probably wouldn't give them as many hours, depending on the minimum wage,” says Danny Chandler, a small business owner.
Chandler says increasing the minimum wage would hurt small businesses.
But some say the minimum wage is just not enough to live on, forcing some people to be dependent on the government, including some of Brandon's workers.
“I know if [my employees] got kids, they're on food stamps.”
Checkers employees aren't alone. American fast food workers receive more than $7 billion annually in benefits, according to a 2013 study by Berkeley's Labor Center.
“If they want to stay up and want to run a business, then they should run the business the right way,” Brandon says.
Until the minimum wage does increase, it appears tax dollars will continue to subsidize some industries.

If you love music then you should not miss out on visiting the Musical Museum in London. The museum has been around for only a few decades but already offer an extensive collection of musical instruments, as well as a history of music.
The Musical Museum was founded by Frank Holland MBE in 1963. He was intent on preserving automatic musical instruments. He felt that self-playing instruments should be shared to future generations even if they would just be on display in a place such as the museum. Frank’s ideas on musical preservation are pioneer in the field. He believed that musical instruments should also be seen and not just be heard. Since his death, eager volunteers had continued his life’s work.
Today, the museum features separate galleries. You will find a gallery dedicated to putting the musical instruments on display. You will also find an auditorium or concert hall. Other amenities include a café, a lift, toilets and parking. Facilities also include disabled access in all of the museum’s areas. The environment is air controlled to protect the physical quality and the fidelity of the instruments.
The Musical Museum features the world’s largest compilations of historically-relevant musical rolls. There are also plenty of available archives on music and automatic instruments. Automatic instruments include tiny musical boxes and self-playing organs, pianos, violin players, orchestrelles and orchestrions.
You don’t just get to see the instruments but you may also get to hear them as they are, after all, self-playing. There is a gallery that recreates a street setting complete with shop windows featuring street instruments, musical toys and other musical devices.
If you visit the museum, you also get to learn more about how instruments play automatically and how to capture music. The exhibitions of music, instruments and related themes do change. The museum offers a unique musical journey that will take you into the past where you can enjoy the streaming music brought to you by automatic instruments that refuse to be relegated to the past. Many of the instruments featured in the museum have been restored to their tip-top playing condition.
There are also plenty of things to see in the area where the museum is located. However, you should be assured that a trip to the Musical Museum of London would already, in itself, provide you with a fulfilling afternoon. The museum is especially recommended for those who appreciate or who play music.

New to the forum so apologies if this thread is in the wrong place!
I brought my old 2004 MK1 Focus Ghia back from my brother last week, he had changed the 15" standard for some 17" racing alloys with low profiles. I now have an issue with the steering on the car around low speeds between 10-15mph. The steering when turning left feels like it has some sort of resistance to it. Have to turn the wheel sometimes with quite some force to actually get it to want to turn. Wasn't sure if it would have anything to do with the wheels due to it not doing it before with the 15" it had.
It passed an MOT last week with no advisories on steering, just slight play in anti roll bar link which I am due to replace and a couple low tread tyres. Fluid seems okay but then surely low fluid wouldn't just effect steering in one direction?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

Sorry people for not posting yesterday due to some prior commitments. NIFTY expiry was below 5500 which is a bearish sign. Today market close around 5480 levels almost flat with mixed sentiments with investors. Domestically today we had may major events which were stock specific. Karnataka Illegal mining scam today named Adani Enterprise which made stock fell 23% in no time. Karnataka government has banned all 40 companies in the states which has hampered the production of steel and are facing shortage of Iron ore. Companies have approached foreign mines owners for the import of iron ore for near term production. This is the second biggest scam after the 2G Scam. On other hand ICICI bank posted its result today and it was way beyond street expectation making stock boom in late hours of tradings. Globally US markets is trading volatile on fear of Debt crisis while European Index are trading in red as Italy, Spain and Greece are still facing challenge to stable their economy. Technically speaking market is in bearish mood which sees support at 5442 , 5400 and 5350 levels. I recommend to wait and watch on the NIFTY untill 2cd august which will be the day of announcement of US Debt market decision. Risk taker can buy a 5400 put and 5600 call to have a hedged position.
NIFTY levels for 1st August:-

The best! Communication with Cornelia, the crew, everything was just amazing. Going with two kids in a young age and the crew made it feel so easy and enjoyable. Would recommend it a million times!
My family and I had a perfect day. Everything about it was amazing, Anna is so nice and attentive and her father is a very funny and an interesting person. It felt so special seeing the turtles and we had loads of fun and felt very safe. If you’re thinking about booking then just do it. It was a wonderful experience
A brilliant brilliant day out! Thank you so much to the team for looking after us. From pick up at our hotel, the attentive service on board with food and drinks, the water activities, and of course the beautiful boat, it has made our holiday in Cyprus one to remember!
We are an extended family of 8 total including 3 kids. From the booking experience on GetMyBoat platform to communication after booking to greeting us at the marina and hosting an amazing trip with a knowledgeable captain and the owner always topping up our Prosecco and ensuring we had food, water and all we needed - this was such a great experience. A highlight of our trip to Cyprus, would 100% do again and highly recommend to anyone considering this over a bigger group trip on one of the bigger tourist boats. Thank you so much for helping us make great memories!!
Excellent trip, can’t believe it was only 3 hours. We were picked up from our villa and took right to the boat. Everything was so well planned and thought out, nothing was too much trouble and we had a really unforgettable experience, especially our 2 year old who saw her first sea turtle!! Can’t thank you enough, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Cornelia!! Thank you so much again.
A huge thank you to the Kornilia team, my family had a fantastic time and we left with some great memories. The service by the team was exceptional, we would definitely recommend this trip to everyone.

1. Gridiron Gang - $15M - $15M
2. The Black Dahlia - $10.4M - $10.4M
3. Everyone's Hero - $6.15M - $6.15M
4. The Last Kiss - $4.7M - $4.7M
5. The Covenant - $4.7M - $15.7M
6. Invincible - $3.9M - $50.9M
7. The Illusionist - $3.75M - $23.3M
8. Little Miss Sunshine - $3.35M - $46.4M
9. Hollywoodland - $2.74M - $10.5M
10. Crank - $2.7M - $24.4M
It's all change this week with four new entries slotting into the top four spots. Gridiron Gang, a true life American football drama, comes just weeks after Invincible. Facing more competition this weekend than the Marky Mark movie did, it opened just below Invincible's opening weekend take. While not opening as well as The Rundown, it did fall in line with his two previous movies (Doom - $15.3M and Walking Tall $15.5M). Like Invincible, the film faced increased competition from the actual football season starting.
The much-hyped Brian De Palma movie The Black Dahlia opened in second place with a slightly disappointing $10M weekend haul. Being billed as a serious adult orientated period drama, the film might have benefited from opening later in the year like the similar L.A Confidential. The movie may not have the legs to stay in the charts to make up that big budget, especially with another wealth of new releases next weekend to face off against.
Ignoring Femme Fatale, which was hardly released in the US, this is the lowest weekend for a De Palma film since Carlito's Way. Unlike the aforementioned L.A Confidential, Dahlia received a number of mixed reviews and may see a quick exit from the charts, which would be a real shame - intelligent adult dramas can be few and far between.
Christopher Reeve started work on Everybody's Hero before his death. His wife Dana then took over the work her husband had started, only to succumb to cancer earlier this year. The movie was finished over the summer and sadly released without much fanfare in an already crowded September, the studio perhaps figuring that it would have the under 8 market to itself. The movie didn't have the appeal or merchandising of a Pixar movie and was lost against the bigger movies, something that won't change next weekend.
Another movie receiving very little pre-release hype is the Zach Braff comedy drama The Last Kiss. Released on 1300 screens, the movie struggled to $4.3M. This is the kind of movie that could have benefited from a smaller initial release to build up any potential word of mouth (in place of costly TV spots etc) and then expand as the success grew. Unlike Braff's Garden State, this movie won't have chance to find fans in the next few weeks as those 1300 screens are taken up by more easily marketed fodder.
The Covenant drops 46%, which would have been a good 2nd weekend drop at most times, except it had such a poor first weekend (as did everything else) that 46% of an already low total isn't good. Pretty much anyone who wanted to see the movie has already done so. It'll probably make DVD before christmas where it may make enough to ensure a straight to DVD sequel (the movie was made cheaply with next to no 'stars').
Invincible crosses the $50M mark this weekend but like Gridiron Gang, has lost its key market to live football. Expect it to have another weekend in the top ten and finish around $60M, comparable to similar movies in the genre (Radio - $52M, Varsity Blues - $52M & Friday Night Lights - $61M)
Two smaller movies are next on the charts, both having already peaked a couple of weekends back. Out of the two, Little Miss Sunshine has performed the strongest (not to mention being the most profitable) while The Illusionist has been carefully carving out its own niche in what is a tougher market, the adult drama/thriller. Both movies have been well reviewed and been aided by strong word of mouth.
Like The Covenant, Hollywoodland had a pretty decent percentage drop this weekend but was hampered by new releases and limited subject appeal. Will the movie be remembered at Oscar time after success in Venice? One of the biggest placement drops in recent memory, the film will end up with around $17M by the end of its theatrical run.
Finally, Crank rounds out the top ten. The movie has currently taken twice its production budget and still has to open in a number of foreign markets. After the success of this & the Transporter series, September could become Statham Month.

The National Council of State rose from its emergency meeting on Thursday to condemn policies by some state governments to register citizens, as it set up a six-man committee with a mandate to fish out discriminatory practices across the country that threatens the country’s continuous existence.
At the Extra Ordinary National Council of State meeting called by President Goodluck Jonathan, the council expressed its fears that the alleged discriminatory policies could send wrong signals which might lead to disintegration of the country if not urgently checked.
Briefing State House correspondents, the Governor of Akwa Ibom, Godswill Akpabio alongside Babangida Aliyu of Niger, Sullivan Chime of Enugu and National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki (Rtd), said, council X-rayed the dangerous discriminatory trend which include disparity in school fees between indigene and non-indigene, discriminatory locations of cemetery based on religion, the registration of non-indigenes as well as deportation of non-indigenes, calling for the immediate stop of the practices as the nation’s unity depended on it.
“It was an emergency meeting called by President Jonathan as a result of the exigency of the moment.
“It was the most important council of state meeting we have had in the last five years, we did not only look at the security of the country, we also tried to x-ray in a very frank way the contributions of all nationals, the role played by every of the leaders and the led, to see how we can take preemptive steps not just to stop the possibility of the deterioration of the situation but to ensure the situation is brought to an end in the shortest possible time to give confidence to all Nigerians.
“One of the most important thing we took up at the meeting today was the issue of how Nigerians can actually be Nigerians in their country and feel free to live and do their business without molestation. So the issue of ‘indigeneship’, the issue of deportation or return of Nigerians from any part of the country to their various states were discussed.
“Council viewed the report seriously that some citizens were being deported, deportation should be from one country to the other but where you have a Nigerian who is being returned to his state of origin from other states then you know there is a problem. We felt that that was capable of disrupting the unity of the country, making Nigerians to become apprehensive and unsafe.
“Also council frowned at the idea of even registering Nigerians in various parts of the country and felt this must be brought to an end immediately. And so we looked at all these issues and the role every leader should play from the local government level to the federal level. The role each one of us should play to ensure that we solidify the unity of this country. We also looked at this discriminatory practices across board from all parts of the country, north, south, west and the east and we felt all those issues must be brought to the front burner, solutions proffer to ensure that Nigerians are united, live freely and do their businesses without hindrance.
“Council in the course of conclusion decided to set up a committee to further discuss with Nigerians and identify discriminatory practices in all states of the federation and in all the local government areas and then this committee to submit report to council in the next two months, in order for us to know what steps to take to stop such practices. Whether we need to go to the National Assembly then we will go to National Assembly, whether we need to do so through policies at federal, state or local government levels just to make sure that the country is totally united and all those discriminatory practices are brought to an end so that Nigerians can truly feel free and safe to work in any part of the country without hindrance.
“The committee is composed of six governors, one from each of the geo-political zones of the country. We have the governor Niger, Sokoto, Enugu, Gombe, Akwa Ibom and Ondo states. These governors are selected from each zone of the country to seat together, invite people to make contributions and then of course look at all practices in this country that we may term discriminatory.
“One of such was the idea of some people in some states complaining that they are unable to getting certificate of occupancy to build mosques or churches, and we said that will be looked into. Another thing that looked very mundane that because of the religion you belong, on your death you are expected to be taken somewhere else to be buried because they don’t have cemetery provided for people of certain religion. Those kind of things does not augur well for the country.
“Our elder statesmen also made solid contributions on how we can tackle the current security situation in the country.
“Security agencies were commended for what they were doing and the federal government for setting up the victims support fund for those affected by the activities of Boko Haram,” Akpabio stated.
On his own, the Niger State governor said, “what came to the fore in addition to the discriminatory aspect you may recall that in some states, they even give contract appointment to some people who are not from the state. In some states, there are some discriminatory school fees paid, if you are not a so called indigene, you pay higher than the indigenes. In fact the very concept of indigeneship came to the fore that whether in Nigeria we should be concerned with the so called indigenship or residency. Those are some of the issues that the committee we mention will look into. But more fundamental is the issue of the bug stopping with the leadership. In fact, it came to the fore that if there is any threat to either the state or democracy probably the threat is coming from politicians and from leaders of the country. We must understand the boundaries of leadership and also the responsibilities that are involved. Leadership is not about beauty contest. In leadership, you must take difficult decisions and really go about implementing them. So, all these things came to the fore at the meeting and subsequently, each of us made it a deliberate resolution to all to be bi-partisan or non-partisan to support the President to make sure that we get rid of this insurgency and indeed suggesting that before December.”
Enugu Governor, Chime said “Today I saw commitment demonstrated by our leaders past and present, we want to save this country, I can assure you that Nigerians are really out to save this country”.
Dasuki stressing on the importance of the meeting said, “Last week there was a security council meeting and you were told after that meeting of our concern which was what led to the council of state being summoned. In particular we were very troubled, this idea of registering people and the counter thing, there was a group that came out in the North and said that all Southerners should leave. And then, there were comments that followed that, and there was a statement issued by MASSOB saying that all Southerners should also leave the North.
“The danger, as we saw it, it will only lead to when one misguided individual will feel that all these things are too much for him, and picks up his things and goes home and that will be the beginning of the division of this country.
“Those of us who were around will remember very well that that was how the civil war started, we saw the danger, we said there is really need for everybody to be sensitized on this. It looks very innocent now to say well, I have security concerns, I can register anybody who is not from here. But you don’t think that you have some people on the other side, what will you feel if they have the same concerns and decide to register everybody who is not from there. That is not the way the framers of the constitution envisaged that the constitution should be operated.
“And that is why this meeting was held and I’m very happy that there was a lot of commitment, the governors who are the main operators, who are the leaders at that level are all committed that this issue is resolved. There are a lot of commitment and support across party lines by those who attended”, he said.
The meeting was attended by five former leaders including General Yakubu Gowon; Alhaji Shehu Shagari, General Ibrahim Babangida, General Abdulsalami Abubakar, and Chief Ernest Shonekan.
Also in attendance were Vice President Namadi Sambo, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Aminu Tambuwal as well as former Chief Justices Muhammed Uwais and Alfa Belgore.
Governors in attendance include Gabriel Suswam (Benue), Godswill Akpabio (Akwa Ibom), Dr. Olusegun Mimiko (Ondo), Babangida Aliu (Niger), Rochas Okorocha (Imo), Liyel Imoke (Cross River), Ibrahim Dankwambo (Gombe), Ramalan Yero (Kaduna) and Sullivan Chime (Enugu).
Also present were Seriake Dickson (Bayelsa), Sule Lamido (Jigawa), Abdufatah Ahmed (Kwara), Adams Oshiomhole (Edo), Willy Obiano (Anambra) and Aliyu Wamakko (Sokoto).
Other governors at the meeting were Abubakar Yari (Zamfara), Ibrahim Shettima (Borno) and Acting Governor of Adamawa state, Umaru Fintri.
Deputy Governors in attendance were those from Abia and Lagos.

It consists of a sequence of interconnected backlinks, with each and every hyperlink possessing internal and outer plates, pins, and rollers.
The roller chain is commonly used in several mechanical programs to transmit ability from 1 rotating shaft or sprocket to another. It is commonly utilized in purposes this sort of as motorcycles, bicycles, industrial equipment, conveyors, and automotive programs.
The time period “push chain” is typically used to emphasize its function in transmitting power and driving motion.

New England Vampires: Nancy Young - 1827
A scant few miles north of the site of Stukeley Tillinghast’s Exeter farm lies the hilly and remote town of Foster, Rhode Island. Situated on the western border of the state, portions of the town were at one time a part of neighboring Connecticut. In fact, if you were to visit the location of the cemetery which figures in this next tale, you might, within the walls of the burial ground, stray unwittingly into that other state!
The year 1806 – Captain Levi Young assisted his wife Anna down from the seat of their small carriage. Cradled in the nook of one arm, Anna held a tiny infant, mercifully quiet after the tiring journey from their Connecticut home to this rural Rhode Island farm.
“Home, Anna – What do you think?” Levi’s infectious smile brightened his face as he took in the rustic-looking house and its sprawling acres.
“Are you certain we’re in Rhode Island?” Anna asked, “I thought it was supposed to be a small state!” Her own smile conveyed her delight at the sight of their new home.
Dispatching Anna to the house, Levi wandered over to where Elija, his one slave, sat atop the wagon laden with the family’s worldly possessions. Elija was not a young man, having belonged to Levi’s father before him. Levi considered Elija to be almost a member of the family, allowing him to eat and sleep in the kitchen of the main house. “It’s a fine place, Mister Levi, mighty fine.” Elija’s deep voice was thoughtful. “A place for the boy to grow in.” With a huff, the old man climbed from the seat of the cart and the two of them set about the long task of unloading.
Years passed and Nancy grew into a fine young woman. She was smart, with a quick wit and an even temperament. By the age of 19, she was managing most of the accounting and ledger work of her father’s farm.
But sadly, the bountiful times were coming to an end. Early in 1827, disaster struck. Nancy contracted what at first seemed to be a severe cold. She was bedridden and her sister Almira struggled to take over the farm’s bookkeeping. Soon, however, the fever from which Nancy suffered overtook her and she began to weaken. On the 6th day of April 1827, Nancy died of what was called “galloping consumption.”
A few months after Nancy’s death. Almira became ill and exhibited similar symptoms. The progress of the affliction was slow, but it eventually sapped her strength and confined her to bed. Levi arranged for the best doctor in the region, but he was powerless to stop the strange fever ravaging the poor girl. One morning, Levi went to Almira’s room with a mug of tea. He tapped lightly on the door before entering to see the girl smiling. “Papa, I think I’m getting well!” Levi forced a smile for his daughter, who looked very frail and weak as she sat propped up against the pillows of her bed. Almira continued, “Last night I dreampt that Nancy came to visit me!”
“She was bright, Papa, like an angel! She told me the pain would go away soon and then she held my hand and I forgot all about being sick for a while.” Almira’s bright face clouded for a moment as violent fit of coughs wracked her body. Levi looked at the pale form of his daughter wasting away before his eyes and a dark fancy occurred to him as Almira continued to describe her deceased sister’s appearance in the dream. “Papa?”
He realized his daughter was looking at him, expecting a response. He reached over and brushed a wisp of hair from the young girl’s eyes. “Yes little squirrel, I’m sure you’ll be well soon.” He kissed her forehead and stood. “Sleep for now.”
Captain Young was disturbed by Almira’s dream. He began to suspect that conventional medicinal remedies could not provide the answer to his dilemma. Requesting a meeting of the town fathers, he resolved to attack the problem from a spiritual vantage point. Local history was peppered with tales of unquiet spirits who existed beyond the grace of God drawing forth the life of the living. The elders concluded that Young’s household was being tormented by such a demon and it must be driven out. The assumption was the restless spirit would be found lingering in the family graveyard, residing within Nancy’s corpse.
A small collection of townsfolk accompanied Young and other members of the family to the newly-walled-off burial ground near the rear of the farm. The single slate marker within the walls had the appearance of a penitent child standing in the corner of a schoolhouse after a scolding. The somber group filed quietly through the gate to stand before Nancy’s solitary grave. One of the eldest present was a gaunt, white-bearded man, Nathan “Doc” Lennox. Old Nate wasn’t a real doctor, but he was knowledgeable about strange things and was often called upon in cases such as this. Doc gestured to two of the more burly young men who had come along. “You boys go and fetch up some wood an’ brush an’ start pilin’ it up like you was goin’ to build one heck of a bonfire.”
The older of the two, Jim Attwood, spoke up. “Where, Doc? Things are kinda dry – we don’t want no fire catchin’ into the fields or woods.”
“Right there then, up to the other wall.” The old man replied, pointing toward the far corner of the little plot. “No reason the ashes can’t stay with the dead where they b’long.”
Jim nodded and the two men clambered over the low stone wall and went to work collecting wood.
Throughout this exchange, Capt. Young had sat immobile on a stone at the edge of the small burial ground. He held clasped his hands in a pray-like fashion and stared vacantly at his daughter’s cold stone marker. Family members stood around him and watched as several townsmen bent to the task of unearthing Nancy’s coffin.
For a moment, everyone froze. The captain was getting to his feet. In the slanting rays of the late afternoon sun, his eyes were the color of iron. “I should be the one to begin.” It is my burden and I will not ask any of you to do what I would not.” He reached out and took a shovel from the hands of Ben McClure, a pleasant fellow only a little older than Nancy would have been had she lived. Ben and Nancy had known each other most of their lives. Young knew Ben had harbored some affection for his eldest daughter and supposed this must be difficult for the boy. He gave Ben’s shoulder a light squeeze. “Thank you, Ben” Looking at the assembled crowd, he continued, “Thank you all.”
By sunset, the coffin containing the shrouded white figure of Nancy Young lay atop a pyre of wood, branches and dry brush. Young did not speak as he set a torch to the base of the wooden mound. The fire caught fast and soon the pyre was engulfed in yellow flames, spiraling up into the blackness of the descending darkness.
Doc Lennox had advised members of the family to stand around the fire so that the vapors from the blaze could cleanse them of any contamination by the evil that had claimed their loved one. Braving the searing heat, the family joined hands and allowed the smoke to wash over them. Others present maintained a distance from the flaming bier, standing outside the wall of the graveyard.
By morning, the exhausted family and onlookers had returned to their homes. Little more than ash remained of Nancy Young.
The unusual remedy employed by members of the Young family does not appear to have helped. The already stricken Almira died within a year of the Nancy’s exhumation. As time passed, four more of Levi and Anna’s children died of consumption, but none was exhumed.
The site of the former Young farm is currently divided into several parcels of private property. Because of its isolation, the burial ground is remarkably well-preserved and the engravings on the stones of Nancy and several other family members are still legible.

The Xiaomi 13 Ultra is arriving on April 18, and the company says it will be a professional camera device, not just a flagship smartphone with mighty cameras. To accentuate its importance and similarity to photography devices, Xiaomi is planning to launch an accessory that is called a “67 mm filter adapter”.
The image was posted with a mysterious shadow, but when we increased the brightness, it is obvious the gadget will act like a case and will have a green leather feel.
Xiaomi 13 Ultra teaser: Original and Ehnanced
We expect the case to have an actual E67 Leica 67 UVa II filter for the camera, similar to what Sony did back in the day with the Xperia Pro series. The big question is whether Xiaomi is also working on a special camera app that will be able to bring the cinematic experience to the next level.
Camera-wise, the four shooters will all have 50 MP Sony sensors – the main will be 1” IMX 989, the other three Sony IMX 858. Xiaomi is also expected to bring the latest hardware to the 13 Ultra, including a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset.

“Stepping to help youth who struggle with mental health issues is no easy task. I commend the bravery and dedication of the team members of the Third District Juvenile Mental Health Court for helping countless youth and families find healing and wholeness. They are improving lives,” said Hon. Mary T. Noonan, Utah State Court Administrator.
The team was one of four awards given out. The purpose of the aware is to recognize those who have made outstanding contributions to the substance use or mental health fields and who have effectively promoted the USAAV+ Council’s mission to create and coordinate a comprehensive strategy to effectively address substance use and mental health disorders throughout Utah.

“After Flodden” is a novel that explores the aftermath of the battle of Flodden fields within the lives of historical characters, some true, some fictional. I found it hard to put down! I enjoyed reading about this period of Scottish history and life in post-medieval Europe.
Louise Brenier and her mother are wondering why they have had no word of Louise’s brother Benoit (who is fighting on the Scottish side), since the battle of Flodden. After trying to find out from various sources what could have happened, Louise, young, naive, and a bit impetuous, strikes out on her own to discover where her brother could be. With a backstory of generations of revenge and feuding, the novel links the story of the battle of Flodden Field with treachery, suspicion and gallantry all set in the sixteenth century.
” Can we really blame the boy if he took against the crown, and all this grande follie, these family feuds that last for generations? What is war, but our own squabbles on a grand scale? and who is to say what is the right side, and what party deserves to win? English, Scottish, French, they’re all as wicked and wrong as each other.”
I enjoyed reading about the countryside of Scotland, especially the Borderlands, and referred to the map included in the book often. However I did find the alternating time periods and flashbacks to be a bit confusing at times, and I think the book would have been better written in chronological order. King Henry VIII (a young king at the time), especially with his suspicion of a Scots/French alliance, in this portrayal, is quite well done.
I did not like Patrick Paniter, James IV’s ‘right hand man’ at all, in his manipulation and overbearing influence on King James, but it does credit to the author’s writing and is apparent, at least to me, that the reader was meant to take Paniter this way. After the battle, shown in several flashbacks, Paniter is plagued with guilt, partly due to his influencing the Scottish king. Louise Bernier is a character that I came to like, and it is interesting to see her mature throughout the story. Her use of a disguise was a clever device to make the choice to travel at first on her own (especially in this time period), more believable. The last chapter was a bit too ‘gory’ for me but on the whole, the book was not too graphic.
Although the plot itself was a bit too predictable (I spotted who the English spy was quite early on), I did enjoy this novel and I will be reading the sequel, “Dacre’s War”, as soon as I can get to it!
Rosemary Goring writes here: “Writing After Flodden was an act of imaginative inquiry. I did not think of myself as writing a historical novel or righting ancient wrongs; rather I was exploring a set of characters and questions that interested me”.

Dandruff in cats – signs and causes
Having lodged in your house the cat, the man resigned himself to the constant concern about this cranky, though quite independent being. But the independence of the cat is relevant only when it comes to decision-making and clarify the headship of man and animal. Here the cat does not recognize the authority. But when the animal suddenly zaneduzhu, assistance looking for the man. However, feline illnesses are not always severe or dangerous. Sometimes the cat stoically tolerate the discomfort and can be cured only its own resources of life.
It often happens that diseases of cats are asymptomatic, but sometimes even the easy and safe of the disease have a very scary signs or not so pleasant symptoms. For example, dandruff of the cat. What it is, as evidenced this phenomenon and how dangerous is it? Let’s face it.
What is dandruff?
Dandruff is a phenomenon occurring in all warm-blooded animals (man including). Dandruff is a syndrome, i.e. a collective set of symptoms (visible or tactile signs) with a common mechanism of occurrence and development of disease (pathogenesis). This syndrome is characterized by scaly peeling skin. It happens detached at high speed and for a long time.
Most often dandruff appears on the skin, covered by abundant hair. Why people dandruff occurs on the head and dandruff in cats “favorable” site is mostly back. However, any coated area of the cat’s body also can appear dandruff.
The process of emergence of dandruff following. Skin cells are constantly regenerated, that is, updated: the formation of new and die old. As a rule, dandruff – dead skin flakes – always have animals, but at the normal speed of skin cells renewal of these scales are very few. However, the accelerated replacement cycle of skin cells, animal hair (or human hair) are just littered with these dead flakes. That’s when we see all the signs of dandruff.
Signs of dandruff
Dandruff looks different. Showered with the animal scales can be gray, yellow, brown, white and even black (depending on skin pigmentation). Size of dandruff can also be very, very different. For example, sometimes these scales are more like woken not coat the flour, and sometimes similar to flakes and dandruff on the touch can be dry or greasy. Often matted together, the scales are generally able to form whole layers.
Of dandruff is also different – from a few pieces to unimaginable amounts. And impress dandruff can as the entire surface of the skin of the animal and only some parts. The number of scales can also vary from few pieces to huge numbers. Dandruff may cover the entire surface of the body or only some parts. In the first case we speak of generalized lesions, and the second is localized. In short, the same disease in different animals can cause different dandruff.
But do not think that the accelerated renewal of skin cells and, as a consequence, the emergence of numerous light or dark scales in the wool – the only sign of dandruff in cats. In addition to this symptom symptoms of dandruff may include:
- the layering of the skin and the appearance of her dry thick plaques;
- the anxiety of the animal and frequent and intense scratching.
Unfortunately, these symptoms may be accompanied by different diseases: fungal skin and fur, the animal infected by parasites (fleas, blasedale), dermatitis, allergic reactions. By the way, some diseases can also cause dandruff in cats. And it should be noted that dandruff is most often a direct consequence of any disturbances in the animal body.
Causes of dandruff
Dandruff is the first signal of health problems of the animal or of breaches of hygiene and the rules of detention. Healthy and well-groomed cat has a smooth, shiny and thick hair (if we are not talking about hairless breeds). But even in this state of the coat appeared dander signals the owner that a cat is not all right. Therefore, the pet owner need to find out the cause of its occurrence. And the reasons can be different.
- Skin parasites. To cause dandruff can fleas, lice, mites, Vlady. Therefore, if the reason only in them, it is enough to treat the animal with special drugs, and the problem will disappear. However, eliminating one cause of dandruff, you could cause another allergic reaction.
- Allergies. As a rule, animal allergies are often accompanied by allergic dermatitis. The cause of this disease can be drugs, poor diet and the same parasites.
- Violation of metabolism. Dandruff as a result of accelerated renewal of skin cells, can signal about an incorrect metabolic rate (metabolism). And this, in turn, say, for example, disorders of the endocrine and nervous system.
- Stress, as disruption of the nervous and mental system can also cause dandruff. And stress in cats can cause anything: a change at home, the appearance of a new animal or person, switching to a different food.
- The conditions of detention. For example, too warm and dry air in the apartment. It dries the skin and fur of a cat, causing dandruff.
- Care. Too intensive care or improper care, such as: frequent bathing in chlorinated water, wash improperly chosen shampoo, improper combing of the animal can also become the cause of dandruff in cats.
- Food. First, transfer the cats to a different food can cause stress and dandruff. Secondly, an unbalanced diet causes beriberi (or hypervitaminosis a), metabolic disorders, eating disorders, and as a result, the appearance of dandruff.
So, if your cat or cats have dandruff, be sure to find out why. First of all, inspect the animal in a veterinary clinic. If the examination will show up any diseases, it is possible that their treatment and recuperation of cats will lead to the disappearance of dandruff. But if the animal is healthy, then look for the cause in another. In this case, the most likely cause of dandruff steel stress, poor diet or improper care. And only your attention and participation will help the animal to get rid of this scourge. By itself, dandruff will not pass.

As we’ve noted many times, voters have deep-seated reservations about the Democrats’ current spending spree. Pretty much everything the Democrats have done since Obama’s inauguration has been unpopular: the various bailouts, the pork bill, the current $3.7 trillion budget. We’re now seeing that dissatisfaction reflected in the generic Congressional ballot.
As reported by Scott Rasmussen, the Republicans have narrowed the gap to only two percent, 41-39. And this is before voters have actually experienced the ill effects of the Democrats’ far-left policies.
It’s interesting that Republicans lag Democrats much worse in party identification than on the generic Congressional ballot. Intuitively, I would think the two questions should nearly always get the same answer. Two possible explanations come to mind: media bashing of Republicans continues apace, perhaps to the point where poll respondents are reluctant to describe themselves as Republicans, and lots of Americans believe in divided government. By 2010, after two years of unchecked Democratic rule, that latter factor could give Republicans a big boost.

Much like Songs in the Shade of the Flamboyant Tree, which I reviewed previously, Songs in the Shade of the Olive Tree is a book and CD set that features nursery rhymes and lullabies in their native tongue. This time the collection features rhymes and songs from Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia and “draws children into a musical journey across North Africa, from the Sahara Desert through the Atlas Mountains to the Mediterranean Sea”.
Songs in the Shade of the Olive Tree: Lullabies and Nursery Rhymes from the Maghreb features 30 traditional story-songs reproduced in Arabic with full English translations in the text, including notes on the origin and cultural context of each song.
My children where enchanted with Nathalie Novi’s colourful illustrations, the perfect accompaniment to the included music CD. As I’ve mentioned before, I love comparative folklore so these books geek me right out. But they are also a big hit with my kids. They love the music and they love learning about far away lands. The one thing my girls picked up from this book immediately is the importance of rain in arid countries. The first time we listened to the CD the selection of nursery rhymes about rain had my daughters asking questions about dry lands and doing an impromptu rain dance all up and down the hallway that had me giggling in delight.
Overall I think this book & CD set would make a wonderful addition to any child’s collection. The book is available for purchase directly from The Secret Mountain website for $22.95. Or you can purchase the digital download, which includes not only the music from the CD but also printable PDF files of the illustrations and song lyrics, for $12.50.

Disclosure: I received a copy of this book for review. As always my words and opinions are my own.

Khloé Kardashian’s ‘body positivity’ comes at a cost at Canadian launch of new clothing line
If you are a fan of the Kardashian brand, then the Hudson’s Bay flagship store at Queen Street West and Yonge Street was the place to be Wednesday evening and a wristband was your ticket to meet one member of the most famously branded families in the world.
Khloé Kardashian, the middle of five children of reality television’s Kardashian clan, arrived in Toronto along with her business partner Emma Grede to launch their clothing line “Good American” in Canada.

The wristbands were given to 65 lucky fans that had previously made a purchase of at least $200.00. But many more crowded the store to catch a glimpse of the currently blonde bombshell.
Friends Noah, 20 and Sevda, 26 each spent over $500 on merchandise in order to meet Kardashian.
They got two wristbands each, and while others offered to buy one of the sought after pieces of ribbon, they declined. Opting instead to go to the back of the line and “meet” Kardashian again. Asked if his parents were aware of his pricey purchases, Noah told CTV News Toronto, “They are now!”

The clothing line features clothing for all shapes and sizes for women from size 00 (yes, there is such a thing) to size 24.
Previously, the line was only available on-line in Canada. It is so popular, when it launched in 2016, the company made one million dollars on day one, making it the biggest apparel launch in denim history.
Kardashian battled her weight for years, but in 2013, after a breakup with her husband Lamar Odom she says she transformed her body through diet and exercise.
She was successful in slimming down, calling her new look a “revenge body” and has turned that too into a lucrative business. But she has not forgotten her past, which is part of the reason the clothing line is so wide ranging.

“Koko”, as she is called by family and friends, is familiar with Toronto and Canada. Her daughter, True Thompson’s father is Toronto-born basketball player Tristen Thompson.
The line prides itself on its being inclusive and women of all races and sizes are featured in their advertising. When the 35-year-old first announced that she was looking for “beautiful, powerful women” to join her in the campaign to launch “Good American’s” first product, blue jeans, real people were chosen.
The verdict from those who have written about them online: Great fit and big price tag. One pair can cost more than $200 Canadian.
Regardless, fans will pay to own a piece of the Kardashian brand. The jeans sold out and now the line has expanded to include suits, dresses, maternity wear and active wear. The accompanying website also offers lifestyle and beauty tips.
Kardashian is rumoured to be worth $40 million, but the company is committed to help those who otherwise could not afford to pay $200 for a pair of jeans. Money from every item sold is donated to “step up” an organization that “propels girls from under-resourced communities to fulfill their potential.”


I think you all now realize how fanatical I am about music, and this love has moved over into the creeper zone with the band, Southwood. My girlfriends and I stumbled upon this band when they opened for Will Hoge at Charleston’s Party at the Point. We were instantly in love with their boyish good looks, catchy beats and rowdy attitude. We lovingly entitled ourselves their biggest fans with the name of Ladywood. Sadly, this past Saturday night we attended our last Southwood show. This is now the second Charleston band that I adore that has decided to part ways. If you will recall my past post dedicated to the awesome band, Crowfield. The reason isn’t confirmed, but nevertheless it was a bittersweet night for the members of Ladywood.
Now, you all might think I’m crazy for dedicating a Wanderer post to another band break up, but I truly feel like it’s the ending of an era. We all have songs and bands that have scored nights filled of mischief, hijinks and romance. We hold bands dear to us like we would with friends and even family, and when they decide to part ways it’s almost like a breakup.
The members of Southwood probably find our band of misfits rather crazy. But with songs like Hey that played on repeat one night while LW members were making midnight trips to undisclosed locations, or Twice that might be an “our song” for couples, and of course the rowdy Hit It tune serves as a great F-you song for ex-lovers. Many of their songs were on repeat for this group and we are thankful for times that we were all together.
Woodiest of the Ladies,

As a child many Saturdays were filled with inspirational drawing and painting classes at the Chicago Art Institute, this instilled a life-long affair with the arts. A former KSU art professor once remarked my sketchbooks look like poetry. Who would have guessed this observation predicted the weaving of art and poems? Recent adventures involve collecting leaves for monoprints which may be converted into artist books.
Clarissa Jakobsons, Aurora, Ohio, teaches art and writing courses at Cuyahoga Community College. Her art work has been exhibited widely including the Cleveland Museum of Art, Baldwin Wallace College, The Artists Archive of Western Reserve, Words/Matter, as well as at San Francisco State, and internationally. Recently she enjoyed an artist residency at the Provincetown Fine Arts Work Center.

Tilman Fertitta is increasing his footprint in the casino industry in a big way.
The owner of the Houston Rockets and Landry’s Inc., the hospitality enterprise and parent company behind Golden Nugget Casinos, purchased 6.9 million shares of Wynn Resorts in October for an estimated $385 million.
Fertitta is second-largest Wynn stockholder
There are no commercial casinos in Texas, nor is online casino gambling legal. Legislation to legalize casinos is expected to be introduced again in the next Texas legislative session in 2023.
In buying the Winn shares, Fertitta now owns 6.1% of the company and is the second-largest individual shareholder. Only Elaine Wynn, businesswoman and former wife of Steve Wynn, has a higher stake with 8.9%.
The investment brings speculation about Wynn’s future direction, too. Will Fertitta assume a hands-on role in the company moving forward? Or is he looking at his new asset as a passive investment?
Fertitta may have bought stock during a ‘dip’
Wynn Resorts’ stock has dropped steadily since the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, largely struggling to rebound due to its Macao properties.
China, and therefore Macao, has a zero-tolerance policy for COVID-19. That results in lockdowns should any guest or staff test positive. This caused 12 days of forced closures in July, contributing to Wynn’s Q3 net loss of $142.9 million.
Those numbers are an improvement from 2021, though, when the company was $166.2 million in the red. But this entire period is a blip in Wynn’s profitable lifetime as a company. All signs point to more growth once pandemic days are entirely in the rearview.
John DeCree, an analyst with CBRE, values Wynn Resorts at $76 a share and targets a price of $100. Fertitta looks to have paid below $60 a share. That suggests he may have found a “dip” to buy relative to its long-term value.
Wynn Resorts CEO Craig Billings gave Fertitta “kudos” for acquiring stock at such a low price.
“All in all, I think it’s just a great recognition of the value of our equity. There’s not much more to say about that.”
Immediately following news of Fertitta’s purchase, Wynn’s share price rose nearly 10% to $63.90 by the close of the day.
In the two months since purchasing, Wynn’s stock prices have continued to climb to over $85 a share.
Fertitta’s history shows that he will be involved
Fertitta did not provide an official explanation for his acquisition, but he did not become the tycoon he is today by taking a back seat with his investments.
DeCree cited historical evidence that made him believe Fertitta’s purchase of Wynn stock could be the beginning of a buyout plan.
“While the filing signals a passive investment, Fertitta’s track record would suggest otherwise. We look to his prior acquisitions, including McCormick & Schmick’s and Morton’s Restaurant Group, both of which started with 13G (SEC) filings that culminated in a full takeover.”
DeCree added that a total Wynn overhaul would be much larger than either of the two restaurants mentioned above, but Fertitta has experience on such a scale, too. He purchased the Golden Nugget brand via Landry’s starting in 2005, and eventually took the entire company private in 2010.
Fertitta busy with lots of other projects
On top of Fertitta’s already robust portfolio, he recently purchased a beachfront resort in Laguna Niguel, CA, for an estimated $650 million.
He also serves on DraftKings’ board after agreeing to terms to bring Golden Nugget Online Gaming under the DraftKings umbrella this past May.
Biggest of all, Fertitta acquired six acres of land on the Las Vegas Strip. Clark County has already approved a 43-story, 2,420-room resort and hotel at the southeast corner of Las Vegas Boulevard and Harmon Avenue. The hotel would be his second Las Vegas property, along with the Golden Nugget, which is downtown.
Add in the prospect of a more significant role in Wynn’s operations, and Fertitta could quickly increase his presence among the most prominent players in Sin City.

Thankfully, GIRL OVERBOARD by Justina Chen Headley is more thoughtful and less predictable than those stories. Instead of striving for the win, GIRL OVERBOARD encourages readers to strive for their personal truths.
For Syrah Cheng, recovering from a snowboarding accident and overcoming self-doubt is just as difficult as climbing back up that mountain. Syrah is the daughter of a self-made billionaire whose face is splashed on the covers of magazines and newspapers. Her mother is dutiful and strict, and her older half-siblings, with lives and careers of their own, are distant.
Syrah doesn't want to just be thought of as somebody's daughter - she wants to make a name for herself in her own way. While nursing her injured knee, Syrah begins visiting kids in the hospital whose injuries and illnesses are more life-threatening than hers.
When she was snowboarding, Syrah felt free and powerful. She now finds solace in scribbling in her manga journal, but it can't compare to actually hitting the slopes - or to confessing something that happened to her last year. Something that she hasn't told a soul.
As the story continues, she learns something unexpected about her family which make her look at her parents differently, and she attempts to bond with her older brother and sister with varying levels of success. Finally, she thinks of a way to give back to the community while bringing attention to an important cause. A charity snowboarding event brings her back to the place where she has to confront what happened to her, both physically and emotionally.
GIRL OVERBOARD is an engrossing story not only about overcoming personal injuries, but accepting your family and yourself. Readers will hopefully walk away with the urge to give back to their own communities and to try something new that they've always wanted to do!

Having Her Say
I spoke to Justina about the book, and here's what she had to say:
Girl Overboard: "I wrote about the dark side of the rags-to-richest story because I was so concerned about the glamorization of uber-wealth. Syrah finds herself and her power and her voice when she spearheads a charity snowboarding event. Isn't that the amazing power of community service? You give, and goodness boomerangs right back at you."
Giving back:"I committed to tying every book I publish with community service. So with Girl Overboard, I've created the Go Overboard Challenge Grant with Burton Snowboards and Youth Venture to rally today's youth to change the world. My hope is that thousands of young adults will apply for the Go Overboard Challenge Grant -- and rock the world with their ideas!"
Regarding the tour: "Hannah and I have two totally different passions -- hers for snowboarding and mine for writing -- and yet what's been so much fun to see is how we're both absolutely committed to community service and to rallying today's young people to make the world better."

"Brian's wonderful song It's Late - should have been a major hit! (maybe it's not too late?) #NewsOfTheWorld 1977 @OIQFC"
This is an interesting statement about "It's Late". I hadn't heard the song before hearing Adam sing it in Phoenix so I listened to the original song a few times and didn't really enjoy it the way Freddie sang it. His voice on this song wasn't very pleasant...very rough. They showcased his vocals but they weren't the best part of the song. Freddie's personality (like in a live performance) is apparent during the song but I'm not sure that it was something that would have appealed to the general public and perhaps the reason why the single didn't do so well.
When Adam sings it live, with no filter, it shows off his refined, rich, powerful voice, supple transitions through the words, and he really made it his own. It is really excellent!
I would love for Queen to record with Adam to get a collection of songs that we already know that he really sounds great. They aren't all Queen hits but Adam's vocals would make them a wonderful collection of songs for us Adam fans. Could go for Queen + Adam for these songs: It's Late, Dragon Attack, I Was Born To Love You, Who Wants To Live Forever, Save Me, Under Pressure duet with Roger Taylor, Get Down Make Love, The Show Must Go On, I Want To Break Free, Another One Bites The Dust, Don't Stop Me Now, Spread Your Wings, Somebody To Love, Stone Cold Crazy...etc!

Dhigufaru might just be the island of my dreams.
I often characterise the Maldives this way: “You know that image of a plot of sand with a palm tree on it in the middle of the ocean? That’s the Maldives. A thousand of those.” Admittedly, that stereotype is really an exaggerated caricature of reality (in fact, its most frequent incarnation is cartoon form). But Dhigufaru comes closer to that meme than any other resort. Maybe not just a single palm tree, but actually no more than a dozen or so mature ones counted.
I am admittedly partial to petite islands, and Dhigufaru is a diminutive one. Just a few minutes walking gets you from one side to the other. Contrary to popular myth, just because the island is tiny doesn’t mean that there isn’t anything to do. The resort’s activity centre is packed with equipment. They were taking advantage of the July breezes doing kite surfing in the expansive lagoon while we were there. It also has a top flight beach volleyball and beach court (permanent padded nets with fixed boundary markers and lighting).
It turns out that Dhigufaru was originally neither an inhabited island nor uninhabited “island”. It was just a lonely, white sand bank in the middle of the ocean. As a result, pretty much all of the vegetation has been planted by the resort. Even some of the wildlife was introduced, as the owner’s parakeets were homed here and live in bird houses scattered around the islands.
I would summarise Dhigufaru as Birds, Beaches and Brightness.
- Birds are the pronounced theme of the property with drawings of various types adorning the rooms and public areas. The very logo of Dhigufaru is the tail feather of a “Dhandifulhudhooni” (ie. “White Tail”) which frequents the island and nests there.
- Beaches dramatically dominate the island. In fact, one of the Best of the Maldives distinctions that I am investigating is that Dhigufaru might just be the “Beachiest” resort in the Maldives.
- Brightness of this unique sand pile shines out at you the minute you arrive. The combination of spacious pearly beaches and minimal towering trees to block the sun means the island radiates with a dazzling brilliance.
Do you believe in love at first sight? I do. I met and proposed to my wife of 32 years after 3 days. I might just have been smitten with similar speed by Dhigufaru. Maybe my tropical lust was simply piqued by this scantily clad plot of sand with her dazzling alabaster beaches exposed so provocatively.


“When you’ve met one person with autism, you’ve met one person with autism.”
This week we are celebrating World Autism Awareness Week (29 March – 4 April), which seeks to raise awareness and create a society that works for autistic people.
This can only happen if there is a better understanding across society and we can all contribute by finding out more information. Although everyone has different experiences and needs, World Autism Awareness Week is a chance to highlight the obstacles that many autistic people experience.
What is Autism?
Autism is many things but overall, it is simply a different way of viewing and experiencing the world.
One in 100 people are on the autism spectrum and there are around 700,000 autistic adults and children in the UK.
Autism is a spectrum condition, meaning that people with autism share certain characteristics but remain individuals. Each person with autism has their own areas of strength, needs and likes.
People on the autistic spectrum may have difficulties that can include social communication and interaction, sensitivity to light, sound or touch and may live with extreme anxiety.
If you’d like to find out more information about what autism is, watch this short film narrated by Alan Gardner, the Autistic Gardiner:
Resources to help raise awareness
Below are some links for further reading regarding World Autism Awareness Week, Autism in the North East and ways you can support and spread awareness:
Wear something blue on April 2 in support of understanding and acceptance for people with autism.
The North East Autism Society suggests changing this week to World Autism Acceptance Week. This is a new step towards autism to encourage acceptance instead of just awareness.
‘Think Autism’ aims to improve the services and opportunities for children, young adults and adults on the autism spectrum.
Inclusion North exists to make inclusion a reality for all people with a learning disability or autism and their families.
The team at Sunderland People First help to keep people in Sunderland with a learning disability, autistic people and their families use different ways to stay connected during the coronavirus pandemic.


Zhiben - Lotion & Emulsion
September 11th 2023
Final Frontier and Playful’s new spot for ZHIBEN showcases the skincare brand’s new Lotion and Emulsion products, drawing particular attention to the upgraded user-friendly pump head feature.
The latest release in ZHIBEN’s popular Dermal Purerefiner series, the multi-functional products treat greasy or acne-prone skin by bringing balance to the oil and water levels.
Rendered in light, tactile 3D motion graphics, the film softly guides viewers through warm landscapes, with the close interplay between the products and the tranquil environment hinting at a soothing skin ritual.
Playful creative director Pablo Alfieri says,
“The idea of reinforcing the dual use of the formula was a key point of the brief. We drew inspiration from the synergy between the products. Our previous film for ZHIBEN was a ballet, so we stayed with that idea, only this time trying to cast the textures as protagonists.”
“The aesthetic exploration was centred around how to bring to life a sense of balance and sophistication, besides the contrast of textures. The colors helped us nail the tone of the film; a mixture between light and transparency, orange tones against the off-white emulsion textures. That helped achieve a sophisticated and elegant atmosphere, where the products dance and are presented together as an inseparable pair of stars.”
Lotion & Emulsion is the first in our new series of ZHIBEN films set to drop in 2023, and marks another chapter in our ongoing collaboration. We started working together in 2020 and to date the partnership has borne more than a dozen films. We’re proud to have played our part in shaping the ZHIBEN’s natural and fresh visual personality, and in a crowded marketplace helping them stand out as design trendsetters.

...the J Wedge is a non-invasive, effective treatment for plantar fasciitis.
St. Louis, MO (PRWEB) June 16, 2015
Fitness professionals will soon converge in St. Louis for the NATA’s 66th Annual Clinical Symposia and AT Expo. Held June 23-26 at America’s Center Convention Complex, the four day conference offers learning labs, workshops, and an expo featuring over 350 industry-related vendors. J Wedge owners Mike and Carolyn Janzen will join these vendors as they introduce J Wedge to the athletic training community.
Developed out of necessity by avid runner Mike Janzen and physical therapist Carolyn Janzen, the J Wedge is a non-invasive, effective stretching tool that treats plantar fasciitis (commonly called heel pain). Prior to developing a severe case of plantar fasciitis in 2008, Mike participated in various races ranging from one mile to marathons. Already registered for the New York City Marathon, he tried all of the mainstream treatments (ice, massage, custom orthotics) to alleviate his pain. None worked. Eventually the two focused on stretching the fascia itself, and the J Wedge was created.
Stretching with a J Wedge takes less than three minutes. Using it three times per day can effectively treat plantar fasciitis induced heel pain and eliminate its recurrence. For more information on stretching with the J Wedge view this short, informational video.
Expo attendees are invited stop by booth number 1040 to try using a J Wedge. Interested in learning more about distributor opportunities? Contact customer service via phone at (855) 491-9021 or email at jhelp(at)jwedge(dot)com.
About J Wedge
If you are currently suffering from plantar fasciitis/heel pain and want to live free of discomfort, please visit our website. The J Wedge was developed in Wichita, Kansas by a runner and physical therapist after mainstream treatments for plantar fasciitis/heel pain failed to alleviate the runner’s symptoms. A patented product, the J Wedge is designed and manufactured in the USA.
