Delta’s Portable Barrier and Bollard Systems Protect Sydney’s Annual City2Surf Run
Rented Vehicle Access Control Solutions Help Manage Key Roadway
to Protect 85,000 Participants
PALMDALE, CALIF. – 20 August, 2019 – Delta Scientific, the leading manufacturer of counter-terrorist vehicle control systems used in the United States and internationally, today announced that Delta’s innovative DSC1000 portable barrier and TB100 portable bollard systems were rented from Australian-based Knight Brothers to help protect the 85,000 entrants in the world’s largest run on 11 August. Both a fun run and a competitive contest, the City2Surf Run covers a 14 kilometer (8.7 mile) course that begins in Sydney’s Central Business District (CBD) and culminates at scenic Bondi Beach.
“This annual event needs a vehicle access and control system that can be deployed temporarily and quickly to secure vehicle check points into the main event area for the mobilization, execution and demobilization phases,” explains Matthew Knight, director of Knight Brothers Pty Ltd, Australian partner of Delta Scientific. “At the same time, they did not want to purchase units that would only be used once a year.For such applications, a lease plan has been created where organizations can simply lease the portable barriers and bollards, use them, pack them up and return them.”
Knight adds, “Pre-packed in a 20 foot container, the DSC1000 barrier and TB100 bollard array package was delivered to site and deployed within an hour to provide effective perimeter protection whilst maintaining the required pedestrian and vehicle thoroughfares into the event grounds.”
The DSC1000 is a self-contained unit that is stored and towed on its own trailer.Light enough to be pulled by a golf cart and set up in only 10 minutes, the DSC1000 portable barrier’s crash test stopped a 2300 kg vehicle going 64 km/p, providing it with an ASTM rating of P40. With no foundation or electrical hook-up needed, two people can set up and take down the DSC1000 special event barrier.
The patent pending crash rated TB100 portable bollard system lets security providers promptly block access to temporary venues. Individual portable bollards provide vehicle safety in applications such as heavily traveled narrow walkways and roadways or any area that a vehicle can get through. Certified testing demonstrates that a TB100 portable bollard system will stop and disable a 6,804 kg vehicle traveling at 48 kph, resulting in an ASTM M30, P3 rating. A single TB100 bollard absorbs 400,000 foot pounds of kinetic energy.

The San Diego Zoo’s 11-week-old panda cub is “making progress” and has started crawling, according to a video update released Thursday.
“Certainly the front legs wanna get up and go,” said Senior Veterinarian PK Robbins. “The back legs sort of got a litle bit left behind, but he’s definitely learning. He’s getting those skill-sets that he needs, and he’s a pretty active little dude.”
The male cub, born July 29, is the sixth cub born to 21-year-old Bai Yun. Bai Yun, the still-unnamed cub and his five siblings, as well as Bai Yun’s regular mate, Gao Gao, will be in San Diego thru next year as part of an exchange program.
As of this week, the cub is 21.6 inches (55 centimeters) long and weighs 7.2 pounds (3.3 kilograms), but Robbins said he is becoming more active.
“I would say he’s making progress,” Robbins said. “He’s kind of at that awkward toddler status where some limbs work better than others.”
Watch video of the young panda learning to getting around, released by the San Diego Zoo Thursday, below.
Bill Maher rips Trump and ‘the gang that couldn’t do treason straight’ on Real Time
HBO "Real Time" host Bill Maher ripped the incompetence of the Trump administration after acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney confessed that there was a quid pro quo with Ukraine in Rudy Giuliani's search for foreign election assistance.
"It's not just that he's always breaking the law, it's that he obviously wants you to know about it," Maher said. "The Joker doesn't want to get caught this bad."
"This is Trump's definition of three-dimensional chess, 'I'm going to distract you from impeaching me by committing more crimes," he said.
"It's like he comes home and Melania says to him, 'you have lipstick on your color,' and he says, 'you should see my d*ck,'" Maher said.
Michael Moore predicts Mick Mulvaney will get into Heaven after confessing Trump’s quid pro quo
Academy Award-winning filmmaker Michael Moore predicted acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney will ascend to Heaven in the afterlife during a Friday interview on MSNBC's "The Beat" with Ari Melber.
The host played a clip of Mulvaney admitting Trump's quid pro quo while seeking foreign election assistance from Ukraine.
"This man obviously is going to be admitted into Heaven," Moore said. "You know, he told the truth."
"If there was a movie version of this, somebody stuck him with a needle just before he walked out onto the stage there, a truth serum needle, and he just went on and on saying, 'Yeah, that’s what we do. Yeah, of course.' Essentially admitting there is a quid pro quo. In fact, there are many quid pro quos."
‘I don’t think he knows what he’s doing’: Ex-Trump advisor rips the ‘cascading crisis’ of his ‘strategic disaster’
President Donald Trump received harsh criticism from a former top Middle East advisor for the ethnic cleansing campaign Turkey is waging against the Kurds in Syria.
MSNBC's Chuck Todd interviewed Brett McGurk, the former special presidential envoy for the Global Coalition to Counter ISIL.
"The truth of the matter is when President Trump announced to the world last December that we were leaving Syria and he arbitrarily cut our force reportedly in half, which is already a small force, we lost all of our leverage and influence," McGurk argued. "And he really threw it out the window on this call on October 6th."

A group of US lawyers are slipping into something uncomfortable for a good cause today (May 14).
Around 20 male lawyers will parade around Chicago’s CBD in high heels to raise awareness of domestic violence as part of a campaign by Walk A Mile In Her Shoes, a non-profit organisation that aims to bring an end to domestic violence.
The Chicago Tribune reported that the men will walk a mile in their choice of stilettos at the event organised by the Chicago Bar Association’s Young Lawyers’ Section (YLS).
For more than a decade, the YLS has hosted an annual campaign to bring awareness to violence against women, with members even volunteering at local domestic violence shelters.
“We want, as a Bar association, to raise awareness about these issues,” Natacha McClain, YLS chair, told The Chicago Tribune.
“We can talk about these issues with each other, but we’re often preaching to the choir. This is our way to provide a voice for those who can’t speak.”
About 20 high-heel-clad women lawyers have signed up to take part in the walk to support their male counterparts; and the YLS has even offered tips on its website as to where large-footed men might find pointy-heeled shoes to fit their hooves.
Folklaw reckons the participants will be practising their strut beforehand, as the walk will take place during evening rush hour, to make sure it is seen by as many people as possible.
“That’s the whole point,” McClain said. “We want people to see this — it’s a public awareness campaign."
Folklaw would love to see some of Sydney’s stuffy, be-suited lawyers tottering up to the Harbour in high heels, especially if it was for a good cause ... and we had a camera.

Aims: Lemierre syndrome is a life-threating condition characterized by recent oropharyngeal infection, internal jugular vein thrombosis, and anaerobic septicemia. It is usually caused by Fusobacterium necrophorum.
Methods: A young Romanian male presented with fever and rigors, mild tachypnea, hypoxia, sore throat, decayed teeth, and tenderness of the left carotid triangle. Laboratory examination indicated severe sepsis with disseminated intravascular coagulation, acute renal failure, and acute respiratory distress syndrome while the Doppler ultrasonography of the carotids revealed left internal jugular venous thrombosis. The patient was administered piperacillin/tazobactam and vancomycin intravenously, doxycycline orally, and anti-coagulation by enoxaparin based on the diagnosis of Lemierre syndrome. Meanwhile, he was complicated by bilateral diffuse pulmonary cavities and encapsulated pleural effusions and so transcutaneous drainage was performed. The patient was discharged after a month and continued his treatment with oral phenoxypenicillin and doxycycline until full radiographic improvement. He was switched to oral anti-coagulation by vitamin-K antagonists and was referred to a hematologist, a vascular-surgeon, and a dentist...

Ducted propagation of chorus waves: Cluster observations
- 1ACSE, University of Sheffield, Sheffield, UK
- 2Swedish Institute of Space Physics, Uppsala, Sweden
- 3LPC2E, Orleans, France
Abstract. Ducted propagation of whistler waves in the terrestrial magnetosphere-ionosphere system was discussed and studied long before the first in-situ spacecraft measurements. While a number of implicit examples of the existence of ducted propagation have been found, direct observation of ducts has been hampered by the low sampling rates of measurements of the plasma density. The present paper is based on Cluster observations of chorus waves. The ability to use measurements of the spacecraft potential as a proxy for high time resolution electron density measurements is exploited to identify a number of cases when increased chorus wave power, observed within the radiation belts, is observed simultaneously with density enchantments. It is argued that the observation of ducted propagation of chorus implies modification of numerical models for plasma-wave interactions within the radiation belts.

So you want to spruce up an old painting sitting around the house? Or you want to create a unique little piece for bookcase styling or hanging in your room? Look no further… this is an easy DIY brushed gold (or any other metallic or regular colour) photo frame.
Super easy to do, takes about 30 minutes and costs less than $10!
You will need:
- a photo frame: I picked up mine from the thrift store for $4.99. You can use anything old you have lying around the house, or you can check any department store or even the dollar store
- acrylic paint: I used gold acrylic out of a bottle — you may choose to use any colour, and can also use spray paint. A little bottle of acrylic paint costs $0.99 at the dollar store
- brush or applicator: I used a sponge brush because I wanted that texture. You can use a normal paint brush, sponge, crumpled up paper (for a dab effect) or any other media. A pack of brushes costs $0.99 at the dollar store
- scrap paper or painter’s tape (optional): to cover the art. A small roll of painter’s tape from the hardware store costs $1.99
- Cover the art using scrap paper/painters tape, if applicable. The one I used had the art attached to the frame so I covered it all with paper. If the frame is detachable, obviously take out the art so you’re only working with the frame.
- Paint the frame. Make sure you keep your strokes uniform so the pattern stays uniform on all sides of the frame.
- Let dry.
- For an added bonus, take a thin tip brush and paint some features of the painting also in gold (or whatever colour you’re using).
- Voila! You’re done.
Check out my DIY video below for complete instructions and to see how I did it!

SoundHound, a speech and music recognition company, laid off nearly half of its remaining staff earlier this month, less than a year after the company went public on the NASDAQ.
The development was reported by tech news outlet Gizmodo on Friday (January 13), citing three employees who were axed and an email from the company’s CEO, Keyvan Mohajer.
In the said email, Mohajer wrote: “When we set course in early 2021 to become publicly listed, high-tech companies like SoundHound were the darlings of the investor community.”
“Companies who could achieve high growth, despite high costs, were seen as engines of a future economy. However, as a result of changing economic conditions, including high interest rates, rising inflation, and fears of recession, companies with our profile became much less desirable.”
SoundHound went public in New York in April 2022 after closing a $2.1 billion merger with special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) Archimedes Tech SPAC Partners.
Founded in 2005 by a group of Stanford graduates, SoundHound has since expanded its offerings from its legacy SoundHound app that rivals Shazam into providing a voice AI developer platform called Houndify and an advanced voice search and assistant app called Hound.
However, the company was no exception to the macroeconomic headwinds that many tech firms are facing. And in November 2022, the company confirmed that it was laying off 10% of its staff due to “challenging market conditions.”
“We don’t take this lightly, but in the face of challenging market conditions, we must channel our investments into the areas that continue to drive growth and allow us to best serve our customers,” a SoundHound spokesperson said in a statement to TechCrunch at the time.
The 10% reduction translated to around 45 people of the company’s 450 headcount.
Now, SoundHound is moving to ax half of its remaining staff despite concerns by investors that SoundHound “does not have the heart to let go of its people,” Mohajer said in the letter cited by Gizmodo.
Shares of the company rallied 10% on the NASDAQ on Friday before the Gizmodo article was published after market hours on that day.
Meanwhile, staff told Gizmodo that axed employees have been offered what one described as “pitiful” severance that doesn’t include healthcare.
The severance package would only be given if SoundHound can raise more money, three former employees reportedly said.
“Im actually quite shocked by the way the layoffs were handled… I was expecting a 17-year-old company, which is now a public company, to at least provide bare minimum severance,” one of the axed employees was quoted by Gizmodo as saying.
The company continued to book losses in the third quarter of 2022. Its net loss ballooned to $28.9 million from $23.8 million, although its revenue nearly tripled to $11.2 million from $4 million in the year-ago period.
At the time, SoundHound Chief Financial Officer Nitesh Sharan said the company is “thoughtfully channeling investments to the areas that matter most, while accelerating our path to profitability.”
The layoffs at SoundHound come amid a string of job reductions in the tech industry in recent months.
Tracking site Layoffs.fyi noted that 101 tech firms have implemented layoffs so far this year, with a total of 25,436 employees laid off.
On average, that translates to around 1,500 laid-off employees every day since the start of the year.
Facebook parent Meta is also letting go of around 13% of its workforce and is extending its hiring freeze through the first quarter of 2023, while TikTok parent ByteDance reported to have started laying off some of its staff in the US and Europe in late 2022.

Most pores and skin circumstances can have an effect on any individual, no matter their pores and skin colour or ethnicity. However sure pores and skin circumstances usually tend to occur or present up otherwise in individuals of colour. That is typically on account of genetics and in some instances, particular cultural practices and routines. “Folks of colour” historically contains a variety of individuals, together with people with African, Asian, Native American, Center Japanese, and Hispanic backgrounds.
Valerie Harvey, MD, MPH, is the president of the Pores and skin of Shade Society. Right here, she shares her ideas and insights on frequent pores and skin circumstances in darker-skinned populations and the best way to deal with these circumstances.
What are the commonest pores and skin circumstances that have an effect on individuals of colour?
Research have proven that there are quite a few pores and skin circumstances which can be extra frequent or current uniquely in people with pores and skin of colour. They embody hair issues akin to traction alopecia and central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, and pigmentary issues (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and melasma). The incidence of keloids varies by race and ethnicity and has been proven to be larger in Hispanic and Black individuals and lowest in non-Hispanic white individuals.
Are you able to describe post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation?
Submit-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) is discoloration that’s left on the pores and skin after an underlying pores and skin rash or bump that has healed. Frequent circumstances akin to eczema, acne, and psoriasis can all end in PIH.
Whereas PIH can occur in all pores and skin tones, it’s significantly problematic and extra obvious in people with darker pores and skin. The distribution of the darkish spots follows that of the underlying pores and skin situation. The shades of the hyperpigmentation can range from gentle brown to darkish brown to blue and grey.
What are the most effective therapies for PIH?
PIH is troublesome to deal with. Present remedy choices embody topical preparations, [Editor’s note: “Topical” means that these treatments go on the skin.] which can be found in over-the-counter or prescription power, chemical peels, and laser therapies.
What causes PIH?
Whereas there isn’t a recognized trigger for PIH or why sure persons are extra susceptible to its improvement, one can take measures to keep away from prolonging the situation. Avoiding the solar is one measure, as it might worsen signs and delay the therapeutic course of.
What may be accomplished to stop PIH?
Therapy of the underlying situation, sunscreen, and solar safety are essential preventive measures. Research present that daylight can worsen sure types of hyperpigmentation. Subsequently, sporting a broad-spectrum sunscreen is an important a part of remedy. Sunscreen must be “broad spectrum” and have a solar protecting issue (SPF) of at the very least 30. [Editor’s note: Sun protection also includes protective clothing, hats, staying in the shade, and staying inside during peak sun exposure hours.]
Are you able to describe the pores and skin situation that disproportionately causes hair loss in individuals of colour? What hair/scalp circumstances are individuals of colour extra susceptible to expertise?
Central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia (CCCA) is the commonest type of scarring alopecia that happens in Black girls. It’s estimated to happen in as many as 16% of African American girls.
Affected people can expertise scalp tenderness, itching, and ache. It includes the crown/vertex of the scalp and progresses centrifugally over time. The situation culminates in scarring and everlasting hair loss, which may be very distressing for ladies who are suffering from this situation.
Therapy choices embody topical and intralesional corticosteroids, oral antibiotics, [medications that work on the immune system], and camouflage methods.
Are there any preventative measures girls can take to keep away from CCCA?
Sadly, there are not any definitive suggestions on the best way to forestall the incidence of CCCA, as its etiology [cause] is unknown.
What about traction alopecia?
Along with CCCA, traction alopecia is one other sort of hair loss skilled by girls of colour. Traction alopecia is characterised by hair loss alongside the frontal hairline. It’s attributable to repeated trauma attributable to numerous hair care practices that happen over a time period. If not handled in a well timed method, or if hair care practices are usually not modified, everlasting hair loss and scarring ensues. Therapy contains using protecting hairstyles, [medications], and surgical hair restoration.
Are you able to share the commonest misconceptions about pores and skin circumstances that will have an effect on individuals of colour?
One common misconception is that people with pores and skin of colour are proof against growing pores and skin most cancers. Whereas the chance of pores and skin most cancers is low amongst racial and ethnic minority teams, they’re extra possible than their white counterparts to develop pores and skin cancers at extra superior phases.
What ought to all individuals of colour know in terms of treating and caring for his or her pores and skin?
Instructional consciousness concerning the significance of pores and skin well being is vital. It is very important search the well timed care of a board-certified dermatologist when routine at-home measures fail to resolve signs. The well timed receipt of care is essential, since delays in analysis may end up in elevated morbidity [worsened disease] and within the case of melanoma, elevated mortality [higher death rate].
What may be accomplished to fight well being disparities in dermatology?
Some of the essential points that may have to be rectified to be able to cut back disparities in dermatology is said to workforce variety. Sadly, Hispanic and Black dermatologists comprise a disproportionately low proportion of the dermatology workforce and likewise are poorly represented in academia. Workforce variety is significant for innovation, enlargement of public belief, and elevated entry to dermatologic care.

It has been some time since I reached this third level, and among them, Shi Feng killed and devoured a lot of powerhouses and creatures.
Seeing that the previous man was burned by the mysterious green flame, they flew at a very low altitude, almost flying along the stone bridge below.
At the same time, the white bone spur reappeared.The Yin Sha under all stability has already made another move to help Shi Feng fight this evil ghost clan again.
At this moment, the earth will bourbon raise or lower blood sugar shook violently.The immortal tower in front of her was extremely close, and the woman had already felt it, and the pressure was even worse.
Then, the black armored general turned around and slashed the large blood sugar level 113 after eating black spider web Lower Blood Sugar Without Medicine foods to eat to control blood sugar with another sword.

Heijia warriors.Three screams foods to eat to control blood sugar of pain were exhaled .

- stevia blood sugar control——It seems that after entering the space of the blood does caffeine increase blood sugar stone tablet, the ghost thing can no longer control them.
- dates will increase blood sugar——In the sin forest that day, geniuses with outstanding talent and promising future, in order to compete for this sin metamorphosis pill, finally went to the end, and their souls were scattered and ashes Among them, there are two peerless geniuses in the eight star demigod realm Shi Feng heard Ziyi say that when he was in the four star demigod realm that day, as long as he took the sinful Xuanhua Pill, it is estimated that he would be able to directly enter the five star demigod realm Now, my martial arts realm is in the five star demigod, and the energy in the dantian has reached great perfection.
Giggle, there are how does an unbalanced diet cause type 2 diabetes ten beautiful foods to eat to control blood sugar young women looking forward to your favor, how can you be so ignorant of style In the snow building, the environment is excellent and extremely foods to eat to control blood sugar elegant.
At this moment, Shi Feng has also sensed that this skeleton is really relaxed about himself.
It was as if a red beast opened its big mouth and bit them violently.However, in the face of two such violent and powerful forces, the man and the woman foods to eat to control blood sugar laughed at the same time.
Go back Immediately following, Iberian vineyards foods to eat to control blood sugar Shi Feng concentrated his thoughts and drank coldly.
Is already the power of the source of all things After feeling this power, Shi Feng is blood sugar stripes body suddenly slammed.
What should I do If 350 blood sugar after eating foods to eat to control blood sugar this goes on, I and him will be really destroyed here. Jian Tong said, bowing his head slightly, what can i eat to bring my high blood sugar down and looking at Shi Feng is face. Shi Feng was still in a drowsy state.Although he was in a drowsiness, his face was still full of incomparable pain.
Thinking of this, Shi Feng sighed.At that time, under the bombardment of the strange power of Tianwu Land, he fell blood sugar stripes Diabetes Meds T2 into a coma.
Hooho Hohoho Seeing this, Liuli Orochi roared in unison, even the big green snake.
Jin Mo has seen the strength of Ku Yan with his own eyes.It why are ketones bad for diabetics seems that his father was suppressed symptoms of blood sugar too high by some kind of force, and if he really wanted to leave forcibly, it would take at least a foods to eat to control blood sugar year to break through Well, a year is time Jin Mo thought secretly in his heart.

This time, Shi Feng no longer gave him a chance to speak again, and his fists continued foods to eat to control blood sugar Diabetes Oral Drugs to bombard him.
Oh.Not knowing what Shi Feng said, Ning Qingqian naturally thought that blood sugar stripes Diabetes Meds T2 he foods to eat to control blood sugar refused to tell him again.
Obviously, when answering this sentence, Jian Chong is tone and expression instantly cooled down.
So arrogant Could it be that with the axe in his hand, he can fight List Of Type 2 Diabetes Pills foods to eat to control blood sugar against the Holy Master Jinguang The Holy Master of Golden Light List Of Type 2 Diabetes Pills foods to eat to control blood sugar is the pinnacle of the Divine King is Nine foods to eat to control blood sugar Heavens Realm, and he controls the real Golden Light Divine Sword.
Ah You You idiot Stop it, bitch The man in the snow white robe suddenly changed his face again.
If it was slower at that time, the four of them would really be left there forever.
Yin Li, the descendant of Tianyin Mountain, looked foods to eat to control blood sugar much better.Those blank eyes like dead eyes stared at Shi Feng tightly and said This seat originally did not want to be your enemy, but you foods to eat to control blood sugar are in charge of this seat is nostalgia, do you really think that I am uti cause high blood sugar foods to eat to control blood sugar Diabetes Oral Drugs bullied by Tianyin Mountain Yin Li is voice was cold, and there was endless killing intent in his voice.
At this moment, a golden figure suddenly rose from his body.The golden Iberian vineyards foods to eat to control blood sugar figure is not big, the size of an ordinary medicine for high blood sugar starts with j human, but looking at him, it makes people feel that it is like a golden god descending Father Looking at the figure, the man foods to eat to control blood sugar Diabetes Oral Drugs in the snow white robe immediately exclaimed.
When he said the last sentence, the brow of the golden light holy son, the more deeply wrinkled.
But then, shaking her head slowly and gently, she has been absorbing the power of the six snakes, red, orange, Iberian vineyards foods to eat to control blood sugar yellow, green, blue and purple But at this moment, it is Medications That Lower Blood Sugar blood sugar stripes seven colors Moreover, at this moment, Zi Ya feels very different to him The stable green snake also slowly collapsed under the seven color light.
Later, after renovation, it was defined to be foods to eat to control blood sugar able to withstand the power of reaching the peak of the peak In fact, the owner foods to eat to control blood sugar of the museum said that although this is a dilapidated and repaired spatial secret room, it is not comparable to other secret rooms at all, and the power it can withstand must definitely be on the top These thoughts kept flashing in Qin Hai foods to eat to control blood sugar is mind.
That is how it should be. Skull Yan is strong, and holds the Thunder God Axe.However, now they are facing the nine peak powerhouses, and several of them are in List Of Type 2 Diabetes Pills foods to eat to control blood sugar control of the .
2.Is poha good for diabetic person?peak artifact.
Much better. Mu are pineapples good for type 2 diabetes Liang said again. At this moment, he also stopped breathing.He foods to eat to control blood sugar slowly raised his head, looked at Shi Feng again, foods to eat to control blood sugar Diabetes Free Meds and said, This ghostly place created by the undead devil is really extraordinary I almost lost my breath trying to find your saint here.
Oh After hearing Wu Lao is words, Feng Wusheng is face changed suddenly, and he remembered something, recalling At that time, I was waiting to enter the dark waterfall, but the pure thunder energy you mentioned, and the dark vortex did not appear.
At the beginning, there was nothing to diabetes medications zydroxy say along the way.It was not until after a while that the beautiful woman spoke slowly and asked Shi Feng, I saw you manipulate the black how long on low carb diet to lower blood sugar demon to kill what supplements help with blood sugar foods to eat to control blood sugar foods to eat to control blood sugar the sinister prince, foods to eat to control blood sugar how did you do this Oh, this.
Do not foods to eat to control blood sugar worry about me, type 2 diabetes medication children just take care of the enemy in front of you. Shi Feng looked at all this and said with a flat face.But even though Shi Feng said so, the power of Ku Yan is resistance remained unchanged.
To go to the fairyland, I need to keep going south After studying for a while, Shi Feng put away this ancient picture of animal skins.
At the beginning, when they learned that that person was the Tianyin old immortal of Tianyin Mountain, almost foods to eat to control blood sugar everyone, is cremora good for diabetics as well as the alien creatures, believed that that person was certain to die.
Then, her figure floated up, and with what will instantly reduce blood sugar a very fast figure, she floated into the undead tower.
What Shi Feng answered quickly. Master, what foods to eat to control blood sugar Diabetes Oral Drugs is going on with this power Ku Yan asked him. Yes, it belongs to the same thing as mine. Shi Feng replied to him.Oh Ku Yan responded and asked again, Lower Blood Sugar Without Medicine foods to eat to control blood sugar Then, can you break it It is hard to say.
When it was approaching this Heavenly Domain City, Yin Sha put it into the Space Profound Tool, and at this moment, it was released immediately.
Mu Liang turned his head again and said to Shi Feng, Brother Youming, Medications That Lower Blood Sugar blood sugar stripes Xiao Hei seems to be really injured.
And followed closely, only foods to eat to control blood sugar to hear the golden light Lord speak again As long as you leave the black axe and erase the mark on the axe, you Medications That Lower Blood Sugar blood sugar stripes can leave immediately.
But in this world where martial arts are the most respected, the demons and crooked ways are not divided by this.
But right now, how to lower blood sugar levels type 2 diabetes it is the exact opposite This mountain is now in the induction between Jin Mo and Ku Yan, and the rank is only in the eighth heaven of the god king.
The old man is martial arts cultivation is not high, only in the sixth heaven of the god king.
I saw her foods to eat to control blood sugar pretty face, and immediately changed suddenly, revealing a look of extreme horror and surprise.
It is woke up with high blood sugar nothing, I just discovered some secrets of this land of wild thunder, and I want to Lower Blood Sugar Without Medicine foods to eat to control blood sugar use you to verify it.
Lian Ying, quickly catch him The old woman said immediately to a middle aged man beside him.

The Canadian government has been given the opportunity to prevent thousands of deaths attributed to treatable diseases. Canada's Access to Medicines Regime (CAMR), formerly known as Jean Chretien's Pledge to Africa, is legislation established in 2004 by the Canadian government that allows Canadian pharmaceutical companies to produce and export patent-protected pharmaceutical products for humanitarian purposes. Unfortunately, under its current shape and form, CAMR has not been able to live up to its reputation of progressive and effective legislation. It has only been utilized once by Apotex Pharmaceuticals, a Canadian generic pharmaceutical company, whom has promised to never use the legislation again unless reform is seen.
Bill C-393 is the solution to flawed CAMR. Bill C-393 calls for a focus on objectives of making affordable life-saving drugs accessible to people in developing countries. Polls have shown that the bill is supported by over 80 per cent of the Canadian population, which has been instrumental to its passing in the House of Commons. The fate of Bill C-393 now lies in the hands of the Canadian Senate, which is being urged by civil society groups to act fast in passing Bill C-393 due to fears of a possible upcoming federal election that would forfeit the bill. CAMR has the potential to make the difference between life and death for millions of people, and as such should be treated as a democratic issue calling for quick action.
CAMR's reform will promote progressive movement and call for action from both generic drug providers and developing countries to engage in utilizing CAMR. Apotex, Canada's largest generic pharmaceutical company and a top contributor to pharmaceutical research, has committed to "work alongside NGOs and Health Canada to develop and deliver a generic fixed-dose anti-retroviral medication for treating children with HIV." Apotex produced the first and only shipment of medicines licensed under CAMR in 2008 and 2009, supplying Rwanda with a combination AIDS drug. This occurred only after an initial agreement with Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) was abandoned. The process was simply too time consuming and costly for Apotex.
The lack of delivery of generic medicines through the use of CAMR supports the obvious necessity of reform through Bill C-393. Proposed fixes to CAMR include the introduction of a "one-license solution" clause. Currently, generic drug companies like Apotex, can only apply for one license per country, which means utilizing CAMR can be a burdensome process. CAMR's reform would create flexibility in the roles of all parties involved. This therefore facilitates the end goal of providing life saving medicines to those in need.
The urgency exists not only in the Canadian government but in the developing nations where millions of people continue to live without access to medicines needed to survive. While the passing of the bill in the House of Commons is a step forward, the act of reform is essential to achieving CAMR's goals and requires senate cooperation. Lack of Conservative Party support for the bill in the House of Commons could echo in Senate, where Conservative Senators hold a majority of the seats. With concerns growing over the efficiency of foreign aid dollars, CAMR would allow the purchase of expensive patent protected medicines at a fraction of the cost, meaning better bang for Canadian tax payer buck.

Red-braised eggplants is ultra-delicious in a rich chili and garlic sauce. Made under 30 minutes, this dish is perfect for weeknight dinners. This Chinese eggplant recipe was originally written for my cookbook, Vegan Chinese Cookbook.
This is a classic dish enjoyed across China in both homes and restaurants. The tender eggplants are cooked to perfection and glazed in a spicy, sweet, and savoury sauce. This sauce also gives the dish a dark reddish-brown colour, a cooking technique famously known as red-braising or red-cooking. This dish is known in Chinese as hong shao qie zi (红烧茄子), while hong shao translates to “red-braised” and qie zi means “eggplant”.
Chinese Eggplant Recipe Prep Tips
In order to make this red-braised Chinese eggplant recipe properly, there are a few important prep techniques to note. The following images illustrate the key steps.
- This is an illustration of roll-cutting. From page 6 of Vegan Chinese Cookbook: “In this technique, the ingredient is first cut at an oblique angle, somewhere between 45 and 60 degrees. Then, using your other hand, you roll the ingredient over 90 to 180 degrees and make another diagonal cut. This diagonal cutting and rolling will result in a piece whose two sides have different angles (not parallel to one another). You then continue this process for the length of the ingredient.”
- Salting the eggplants does a few things: It draws out moisture from the eggplants; it gives the eggplants some salty flavour; and it makes cooking through the eggplants easier and reduces the amount of oil needed.
- I highly recommend preparing the sauce mix and thickener before cooking the eggplants. Chinese wok cooking is usually fast-paced, and requires frequent stirring of the ingredients. Therefore, prepping ahead of time is necessary for ensuring a manageable workflow. For this dish, we need to make one sauce for braising and one thickener. The sauce for braising consists of light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sugar, shaoxing wine and water. The thickener consists of cornstarch and water.
- After salting the eggplants for 10 minutes, squeeze as much moisture out of the eggplants as possible. Discard the liquid.
How to Cook Chinese Eggplants
This particular Chinese eggplant dish uses a cooking technique called red-braising or red-cooking. It features a dark reddish-brown sauce (see prep step 3 above) coating the ingredients. The eggplants are braised in this sauce mix. The following images illustrate the cooking process.
- Heat the oil over high heat until the oil begins to smoke.
- Add the eggplant and stir for 1 minute.
- Then add the garlic and chili and stir for 1 minute.
- Add the sauce and continue stirring for another 2 minutes. Add the cornstarch mixture and stir for 1 minute to thicken the sauce.
Adapting The Recipe for Gluten-Free
Most gluten-free soy sauces and tamari (typically gluten-free, but you should double-check the label) are similar to Chinese light soy sauce in flavour. Although not impossible, it will be harder to find a gluten-free dark soy sauce. If you don’t have a gluten-free dark soy sauce, to make this dish gluten-free, simply replace both light soy sauce and dark soy sauce with gluten-free soy sauce or tamari.
Vegan Chinese Eggplant Recipe
This classic Chinese eggplant dish is naturally vegan. You can find the recipe in chapter 4, “Soups, Stews, and Braises”, of my Vegan Chinese Cookbook. Red-braised eggplants is so flavourful and makes a substantial main dish for anyone who wants to eat more vegetables or is on a plant-based diet.

- Eight Treasure Congee (八宝粥)
- Mung Bean Cakes (Gluten-Free, Vegan, 3 Ingredients)

- Smacked Cucumber Salad
Chinese Red-Braised Eggplants
- 3 medium Chinese eggplants approx. 1lb 5oz or 595g per 3 eggplants
- 2 teaspoons sea salt
- 2 tablespoons Chinese light soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon dark soy sauce
- 4 teaspoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine
- 3/4 cup water
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/4 cup canola oil (see notes)
- 6 garlic cloves minced
- 2 fresh bird's eye chilies cut into thin rings
- 1 tablespoon sliced scallion
- Roll-cut the eggplants (see page 6) into 3-inch-long pieces about 1 inch thick. In a large bowl, toss the eggplant pieces with the salt and let them rest for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix the light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sugar, wine, and 1/4 cup water to make a sauce. In another small bowl, mix the cornstarch and 1/2 cup of water together to make a thickener.
- Squeeze the salted eggplant to release as much moisture as possible. Set the eggplant aside.
- In a wok or large skillet, heat the oil over high heat until the oil begins to smoke. Add the eggplant and stir for 1 minute. Add the garlic and chili and stir for 1 minute. Add the sauce and continue stirring for another 2 minutes. Add the cornstarch mixture and stir for 1 minute to thicken the sauce.
- Remove the pan from the heat. Serve hot garnished with the scallion.
- Cooking Oil: Chinese cooking typically uses peanut oil, soybean oil, sunflower oil, corn oil, or rapeseed (canola) oil. For a healthier alternative, I use avocado oil. For the recipes in Vegan Chinese Cookbook, I chose canola oil as it’s the most available in North America, but you can use any of these cooking oil interchangeably unless otherwise specified. I usually avoid oils with distinct flavors that may interfere with the flavors of Chinese cooking, such as olive oil and coconut oil.
- Gluten-Free Option: Most gluten-free soy sauces and tamari (typically gluten-free, but you should double-check the label) are similar to Chinese light soy sauce in flavour. Although not impossible, it will be harder to find a gluten-free dark soy sauce. If you don't have a gluten-free dark soy sauce, to make this dish gluten-free, simply replace both light soy sauce and dark soy sauce with gluten-free soy sauce or tamari.

Chinese New Year presents an annual opportunity for brands to have fun with animal prints. Some years and their corresponding Zodiac animal, are easier fits than others. This tiger year is, in particular, a great match for Italian luxury house Gucci.
The brand has come up with an extensive collection of ready-to-wear and accessories for the festive occasion. The crux of which is a new tiger print. Sort of new – it’s actually a new interpretation of a late ’60s archival design by Vittorio Accornero, the artist and illustrator who originally created the brand’s signature Flora print.
The Gucci Tiger collection can also be purchased from an ephemeral store at Paragon.
Tigers also fall neatly into the menagerie of flora and fauna that suffuses creative director Alessandro Michele’s universe of Gucci. It comes in varying levels of pizzazz: from AM-levels of all-over print and colour to subtler inclusions of the motif painted by hand, patched using crochet and embroidery, or even on the lining of a trench coat.
As is the case with special collections these days, this will come packaged in festive-themed boxes and paper bags, and a new dedicated label that features the Gucci Tiger print. As a nice touch to its sustainability commitments, Gucci has also ensured that the components of the packaging are responsibly sourced. That means paper from well-managed forests, handles made from recycled polyester and knotted rather than glued, and ribbons crafted from organic cotton.
Below, our picks from this fun new collection for optimal CNY flexing.

Retaining Wall Design with Soil Protection
This photo is after several retaining walls were built to stabilize the hillside.
The driveway to this home was completely blocked by a hillside that gave way. Trees, earth, debris were the result of heavy rainfall and not enough drainage.
Slope & Soil Control
After months of heavy rains the hillside in Mercer Island, WA gave way, blocking access to several homes and creating saftey concerns for residents all along the affected area.
Retaining Walls From Above
Looking down at the mudslide area, from the neighbor's yard above, after Matvey installed several retaining walls.
Mudslide Control in Mercer Island, WA
We were contacted by a previous customer in Mercer Island after the hillside had fallen. The retaining wall we previously installed stayed strong, but the surrounding areas were affected. Here you'll see how we stabilized the slope and protected the soil from further erosion the next time there is heavy rainfall.


Although Roxy was ‘just a dog’, and she died over 8 years ago, recalling her last day still feels heartbreaking for owner Jennifer Muldowney. In fact, she says it was one of the worst days of her life and has inspired her upcoming Tedx Talk in Tallaght this Thursday October 12th.
“She was 16 – quite old for any puppy – and she’d had a series of strokes,” says Jennifer, 35.
“I had just returned from the holiday of a lifetime in Cuba and when I arrived home Roxy came running out as usual to say hello. But everything wasn’t usual - I knew something was wrong. Four hours and another stroke later we were taking her to her death. We had her for 16 years, she was part of the family. She was my best friend through childhood, teenage years and adulthood. I felt like I was betraying her.”
Jennifer’s deep emotions regarding the day her dog was euthanized strikes a familiar chord with just about anyone who has ever lost a beloved pet to euthanasia — more commonly known as “putting a dog to sleep.”
The aftermath was even worse than the act itself, Jennifer says “I often ask myself did we do the right thing, could she have gotten better or was she saying thank you. Her eyes never left mine as she died. And then afterwards, people just don’t know what to do with you, theres no funeral or blueprint to follow. You feel awkward calling into work asking for some time off. You feel your friends look at you thinking “Just get over it, its only a dog” especially if they have had human loss. It seems self indulgent to even think of mourning a pet when faced with human loss so feelings get hidden and grief gets buried deep.”
Ireland is changing when it comes to pet loss as we see recognition of the grief people experience when a beloved pet dies where we never saw it before. There are helplines offering support and a listening ear. You can buy pet condolence cards, memorial jewellery. Pet funeral businesses are springing up: pet cemeteries and pet crematoriums with pet specific caskets, urns and keepsake jewellery.
One study by the Funeral Co-op in the UK found that more than a quarter of respondents had found their pet’s death as difficult as the death of a family member, and a third thought it was on a level with the loss of a friend. Nearly half of the bereaved owners were still mourning after two months, and 16 per cent were struggling a year later.
While it might seem self indulgent or the ‘world gone mad with millenials’ by older generations to mourn the loss of a pet or compare it to the loss of human life, to some it can be just as heartbreaking. All loss and grief is important and essential experiences of the human psych but grief that is dismissed by others can be more painful still.
Pets are often with us 24/7, reliant on us for food, water, exercise, and survival. They become our confidantes and in some cases have been known to prevent suicidal thoughts and help with mental illnesses. Here is a living being who will not judge, reprimand, or dismiss your thoughts, actions or feelings and yet when they pass the loss can be dismissed as ‘just a dog’. It’s not right.
Irish milliner Philip Treacy lost his jack russell, ‘Mr Pig’ in 2004 and said ‘I saw Mr Pig as my friend, not my dog. He was my everything; he was like my child. He was by my side, day and night, for 12 years. How many humans could you say that about?’ Treacy even went on to compose a book Dog Stories, which is an anthology of stories of well-known people (Lady Annabel Goldsmith, Sir Jackie Stewart, Lord Hattersley, Anna Pasternak, Petronella Wyatt, Edward du Cann and Tom Rubython) and their dogs. They recount the adventures of their pets, and the happiness and ultimate sadness they brought to the lives of their owners.
Jennifer used her grief to build a business helping others to grieve and started a company called Rainbow Bridge Memorials offering condolence cards, pet conscious cards and memorial jewellery but it is more than just a business as she says “It has become a community. We have a Facebook page where people will often post about their pet or their grief and others chime in and offer support. We all know the sadness of pet loss and the difficulty in speaking about it to others who don’t have pets. The emails I receive from my clients about my jewellery often overwhelm me as they tell me how much it helps them in their grieving process and some of the emails were heartbreaking to read. It brought the loss of Roxy up all over again but I guess I started the business because when we lost Roxy, I still wanted her with me every day and wherever I go and with the jewellery I can do that and it helps.”
However you choose to remember your pet will be a perfect representation of the animal who captured your heart. This year, take a few minutes to sit down and think about the wonderful animals that have enriched your life. For those who are celebrating a pet who is still alive, be sure to give them a big hug and some extra love and attention on this very special occasion.

Tuesday September 20, 7pm – Poetry
Poets & Prophets Presents Ray Garman
Ray Garman is a poet and photographer, an activist and entrepreneur. Ray has read and performed his works around the world, including Robin’s Bookstore (Philadelphia), Bowery Poetry Club (New York), Nuyorican Poets Café (New York), Neither Nor (New York), Knitting Factory (New York), Shakespeare & Company (Paris), City Lights (San Francisco), Fringe Club (Hong Kong), St. Mark’s Poetry Project (New York), La MaMa Theatre (New York), Nell’s (New York), The Café (Nairobi), Burning Man ( Black Rock City ), along the Ho Chi Minh Trail, and with the forest of drums, and rainbows, gathering.
Ray is the author of Crossing Waters published by Whirlwind Press. He is a father and a graduate of Haverford College.
What’s being said about Crossing Waters:
“When language wanted to cross the Styx, ford the Amazon, end up on the other side of the Liffey, and reconnoiter the Yangtze, it called upon the ultimate explorer. His name: Ray Garman. His game: it ain’t a game. His preoccupation: today, now, in your hands, folks, c’mon now, let me introduce you to What Happens to Poetry when it takes you for a ride that’s as far as you want to go, as near as your ear, and in the din of dumb, a smart, tart response. Let’s journey to liquid land, into effervescent streaming, torment torrent.” – Bob Holman
“In his first book of poems, Crossing Waters, Ray Garman asks “Where would the truth live if it were absolutely honest?” Couched in a frame of seasons, he makes an effort to take us to that place where truth would live and reminds us along the way, “All children/one village/one soul” as he “struggles in this life/for peace/in another.” Even with its carnality, Waters is one man’s personal scripture as he travels the distance to the light.” – Lamont B. Steptoe
“The poems of Crossing Waters navigate the troubled passages a man encounters when life as he wishes it to be is swept away. Here is the white water of disaster, the cross-current of resistance, but also “a certain spacious expanse” of insight and love that opens into “bigwinds and horizons.” In these sometimes jazzy blues, Ray Garman sings into the soul’s atmosphere.” – J. C. Todd
“Ray Garman’s poetry knows by breathing. From there he knows his own life and the world around him, which is international. His childhood experience – Spring – his Summer, “Out of Breath” – his Autumn – “Gasped Breath” – his Winter – “Recollected Breath”, all are connected to our troubled globe. Although he is not yet in his Winter (of his discontent?) his poems radiate with senses of the seasons and the most subtle passages of time, and the beauty of the seasons.” – Justin Vitiello


MHS Goes to The Symphony, Amazing Grace beneficiaries of this year's Mayor's Ball
MIDDLETOWN -- Mayor Dan Drew unveiled the details of the annual Mayor's Ball, dubbed the Mayor's Gala this year.
This year's event will be held June 2 and will benefit the Middletown goes to The Symphony and the Amazing Grace Food Pantry. Invitations will be sent out next week, as well as general announcements of the event and requests for sponsorships.
"The planning committee did a wonderful job putting this wonderful event together. It will be held June 2 at the Elks Lodge. We're bringing it back to Middletown," Drew said during a press conference Wednesday.
In years, past, the event was held at St. Clement's Castle in Portland.
"I'd like to thank the committee. They put in a lot of work and came up with some really creative ideas, and it will help two very worthy causes, especially in these tough economic times.
Drew said the event will raise enough money for 10,000 meals for Amazing Grace, which is a part of St. Vincent DePaul Soup Kitchen. Funds will also go to Middletown High Goes to The Symphony, a program that affords an opportunity for MHS Concert Band, string orchestra and concert chorus to perform with the Hartford Symphony Orchestra at the Bushnell Theatre.
"Ten thousand meals is significant for the pantry," said Ron Krom, executive director of St. Vincent DePaul soup kitchen. "We serve about 10,000 meals a month, so you will be
committing one month's worth of food," he said.
"Playing alongside a professional orchestra is an amazing experience. It's wonderful being on a real stage in front of thousands of people," said Chris Donaldson, a Junior at MHS and a tuba player for the school Concert Band.
"It's definitely a great program," said William Hawkins, who plays clarinet for the Concert Band. As was said, we're the only school that has this sort of experience. It's great to be able to do it," he said.
Quentin Phipps, city treasurer, who worked on the gala planning committee and an alumni of the Middletown High Goes to the Symphony, said the program allows students to "have an opportunity where expectations are raised and every student needs to rise up and meet that expectation."
Town Clerk Sandra Russo-Driska, Ashley Flynn and Felicia Moncada also served on the gala planning committee.
Other members of the music program on hand for the press conference was Allyssia La Rosa, Mart Reinsch and Siena Biales, all singers with the chorus, and Cameron Stedman, a cellist with the string orchestra.
Stedman said she got involved with the music program because her older sister was part of it and played at the Bushnell with the Hartford Orchestra.
"I remember how professional they looked up on the stage, how beautiful it was. I wanted to be a part of that," Stedman said.
The string orchestra, concert band and concert chorus do three selections each with the Hartford Symphony Orchestra, according to Michael Gosselin, choral director for the music program at the high school.
"Community support for this program continues to grow," said Marco Gaylord, Fine Arts director at MHS. "Without the support of the community, it doesn't happen. The great things this school does is because of the community and Wesleyan.
"Middletown High Goes to The Symphony is an incredible evening. It's a packed house with students playing together with the Hartford Symphony. They're so on, so tight, so beautiful in a setting no one else does and supported by the community. The value can't be overstated," he said.
Also on hand at the conference was who Gaylord called "the fundraiser"--Santo Fragilio. Fragilio has been with the Middletown school system for 64 years. He was Gaylord's predecessor at Middletown High.
Tickets for the benefit are $100 per person and includes beer, wine and a gourmet five-course meal. The gala is black-tie optional. Seats are limited to 325.
"It's going to sell out," Drew said.

Air Pollution’s Negative Effects on Your Skin
In June of last year, devastating wildfires swept through the Canadian province of Quebec, casting large plumes of acrid smoke across North America. Remarkably, over 300 miles away in Boston, dermatologist Shadi Kourosh observed an unusual surge in dermatology visits. Typically, patients with eczema or itchy skin issues would seek care during winter, but an unexpected increase occurred in the midst of summer. As Boston, like other northern U.S. cities, experienced elevated air pollution due to the wildfires, Kourosh suspected a potential correlation with skin conditions.
To investigate, her team gathered five years of airborne particulate matter and carbon monoxide data from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, aligning it with anonymized patient records from Massachusetts General Brigham, the state’s largest hospital group. The findings revealed a connection between air pollution levels and hospital visits for atopic dermatitis, the most common form of eczema. In June 2022, when carbon monoxide levels were below 0.2 parts per million, dermatology clinic visits were under 20. However, during the wildfires in June 2023, with carbon monoxide levels at 0.6 parts per million, dermatology visits soared to 160.
Beyond acute events like wildfires, day-to-day pollution from vehicles and industry can also impact the skin. Studies from China in 2021 found a link between elevated baseline air pollution levels and conditions like eczema in children. The skin, being exposed to various pollutants, can suffer from inflammation and accelerated aging. Individuals with weakened skin barriers, like those with eczema, are particularly vulnerable.
While air pollution is often associated with health issues like asthma and lung cancer, its impact on the skin is significant. Over 99% of the global population resides in areas where pollution levels surpass World Health Organization guidelines. Severe skin conditions such as atopic dermatitis can severely affect the quality of life for those affected. Sleep disturbances, anxiety, depression, and social withdrawal are common consequences.
Carsten Flohr of the British Association of Dermatologists emphasizes the importance of addressing the skin’s impact, stating that even though it may not be fatal, severe skin conditions can lead to a horrendous quality of life. Air pollution has been linked to a range of health problems, but its impact on the skin should not be overlooked. As more than 99% of the world’s population resides in areas with excessive pollution, addressing severe skin conditions is crucial.
Atopic dermatitis, if severe, can lead to a diminished quality of life, causing sleep disturbances, anxiety, depression, and social withdrawal. Long-term exposure to air pollution may make individuals more sensitive to other allergens, triggering the immune system into a hyper-alert state. Protection measures, such as staying indoors during times of elevated pollution or using masks, can mitigate respiratory symptoms and protect the skin.
In areas prone to wildfire smoke or high pollution, protective barriers like masks and clothing covering arms and legs can help. For everyday protection, air filters at home, mineral sunscreens with zinc or titanium, and a thorough cleansing routine are recommended. Kourosh emphasizes the need for governments to address urban air pollution through green transportation policies and measures to mitigate events like wildfires, emphasizing the broader impact of climate change on human health.

Loei Province in the far west of upper northeastern Thailand, or Isaan, is defined by the natural beauty of its landscape which embraces mountain ranges, rocky outcrops, waterfalls and extensive forests. Then there’s the mighty Mekong and the rich lowland farmlands.
Remote and sparsely populated, the isolation, open spaces and abundant fresh air make Loei an attractive destination for natural and cultural ecotourism, while the provincial capital, also known as Loei, retains a charming small town feel.
The scenic landscape gives the province its unique ecotourism appeal. The beautiful and unspoiled Mekong River between Pak Chom and Chiang Khan, two traditional small towns with wooden shophouses and narrow streets joined by a winding riverside road, offers fine views of neighbouring Laos, shoals, rapids and sandbanks, as well as rich farmlands and orchards. Loei’s Mekong Valley really is a bucolic, rural idyll. Pla Ba Waterfall near Phu Ruea, Loei Province
Away from the Mekong, Loei boasts two of the country’s leading national parks: Phu Kradung and Phu Reua. There are also the less well known but beautiful and isolated Phu Suan Sai (also known as Na Haeo National Park) and Phu Luang Wildlife Preserve, as well as numerous waterfalls along the Thai-Lao border and in the mountain ranges surrounding the province. Because of the low population, much of Loei is covered with various types of forest – mainly tropical evergreen mixed with deciduous trees and pines and even maple trees – as well as savannah on the uncultivated lowlands.
Rich farmlands nestled away in the many mountain ranges produce an astonishing variety of crops. Traditional crops include rice, soybean, maize, sesame, bananas, tamarind, lychee, longan and mangoes. In recent years, new crops have been introduced that have added substantively to the province’s rich agricultural output, including rubber, macadamia nuts, coffee and temperate flowers such as roses, hydrangeas, petunias, African violets and phlox. Grapes flourish in vineyards around Phu Ruea District, and Chateau de Loei wines first bottled in 1995 are now exported to Europe, Australia and Japan. Loei has also long enjoyed a reputation for growing the kingdom’s best cotton, and producing the warmest cotton quilts in Thailand.
Separated from nearby Laos by the broad Mekong River in the east and the much smaller Hueang River to the west, the province has a distinctly Lao cultural feel. This manifests itself in the local dialect, religious architecture, history and cuisine. Yet links with central Thailand are also strong, as exemplified by the provincial symbol, the stupa at Wat Phra That Si Song Rak in Dan Sai, founded in 1560 as a sign of enduring friendship between the Kingdoms of Ayutthaya and Luang Prabang.


On the Sprague Farm and Brew Works, little ones twirled before a stage amped with the twang of local folk and bluegrass. Tents dotted the perimeter in front of the tree line, and feel-good summertime vibes were in.
The Crawford County Music Fest brought more than just great music, fun people, and good times together, July 9, but laid the grounds for what may be a new annual Crawford tradition.
“We’re in the business of being people-people,” said Brian Sprague, who founded the Sprague Farm and Brew Works with his wife, Minnie. “Our goal was to put on a nice friendly event, have people come away saying, ‘That was great, and I want to come back again.”
If all goes well, Fest lovers can expect a second event. Originally, a yearly Bluegrass/American roots festival, the Fest ended in 1991 after becoming too expensive to produce. However, after Brian Sprague came to Tom New of WQLN looking for collaboration for an event, New agreed that the time was right to bring new life to the old beloved festival.
This time, all proceeds go to WQLN, helping them further their public broadcasting mission.
“This is the kind of music that’s not being served,” said New about the sound of the festival. “We’ve got a lot of great regional bands.”
Mentioning Grove City band, Yellow Lady Slipper, he added, “they play all original music. It’s a band that should be shared with people.”
The Fest line up included regional talent Yellow Lady Slipper, from Grove City, Richie Stearns, from Ithaca, N.Y., Tiger Maple String Band, from Edinboro, and Donna the Buffalo, also from Ithaca.
Referring to Stearns, New said, “we probably have the best claw-handled banjo player in America playing for us right now.”
Yellow Lady Slipper drummer Bill Smith approved of the event. “Seems like they’ve covered all their bases, good brew, shade, nice vibe, being out in the country, good sound system,” he said.
One group of seven friends, who camped out early to claim their “perfect” spot, is making plans for next year.
“(We are) already talking about coming back next year,” said Maggie Jablonski, who drove from Linesville. “We’re going to perfect this, we’ve got a list of things to remember for next time.”
