text:
In terms of the Second Schedule to the Civil Code a foundation is defined as an organization consisting of a universality of things, constituted by virtue of a public deed, inter vivos or by a will, by a founder or founders, whereby assets destined either for the fulfilment of a specified purpose or for the benefit of a named person or class of persons, are entrusted to the administration of a designated person (hereinafter referred to as the “administrator”). A foundation may not be established to carry out commercial activities, but the foundation may be entrusted with corporate entities which undertake commercial activities.
Maltese law allows for the establishment of private or purpose foundations. A private foundation is one that is established for the benefit of one or more persons, while a purpose foundation is one that is established exclusively for a charitable, philanthropic or other social purpose, or as a non-profit organization, or for any other lawful purpose.
The main differences between a foundation and a trust include that; a foundation, once established, is a separate legal entity while a trust is not, and whereas in the case of a trust, the Trustee becomes the legal owner of the trust property, the founder of a foundation continues to have a level of control over the direction of the assets.
The taxation of Maltese foundations is regulated by the Income Tax Act (CAP 123) and more specifically by Legal Notice 312 of 2010 entitled Foundations (Income Tax) Regulations (hereinafter referred to as the “Regulations”). The Regulations establish that as a general rule, foundations are to be treated in the same manner as companies ordinarily resident and domiciled in Malta for taxation purposes. Therefore, the profit earned by the foundation is taxed at 35% and the foundation also benefits from Malta’s full imputation and refund system. The foundation may also claim the participation exemption on income and capital gains derived from a participating holding.
However, the administrator of a foundation may, in terms of Article 4(1) of the Regulations, give notice in writing to the Commissioner of Inland Revenue and elect to have the foundation treated and taxed as a trust (under the provisions of the Income Tax Act). Such an election would be irrevocable. Where at least one of the administrators of the foundation is a resident in Malta, then tax shall be chargeable in Malta on any income attributable to the foundation at the rate of 35%. Yet where the trust income consists of income arising outside Malta or is made up of interest, premium or royalties, gains or profits arising from the disposal of units in a collective investment scheme and all the beneficiaries are persons not ordinarily resident or domiciled in Malta, or are persons whose income is totally exempt from tax, it shall be deemed that such income is not income attributable to the foundation. In these circumstances, the foundation would be treated as a transparent entity for Malta tax purposes and the income would be deemed to have been attributed directly to the beneficiaries. A foundation, therefore, has the option to be taxed as a company or as a trust. There is also the option for certain foundations to be exempt from Malta tax where such foundations are enrolled in terms of the Voluntary Organisation Act or if not enrolled, are established for the achievement of a social purpose which is non-profit making.
Furthermore, the provisions of the Income Tax Act (ITA) allow for the possibility that the trustee of a trust may, if certain conditions apply, irrevocably elect to have the income derived by a trust be deemed to be income derived by a company resident and domiciled in Malta. So, in the case of a foundation, the administrator may choose to have the foundation treated as trust, and then subsequently choose to have all income derived by the trust be deemed to be income derived by a company. Where such an election is made all provisions of the ITA applicable to companies would be applicable to the foundation-turned-trust.
Apart from tax implications arising upon income derived by the foundation, as mentioned above, tax implications also arise upon the creation of the foundation, upon a transfer of asset by the foundation in favour of 3rd parties, upon a distribution of assets by the foundation in favour of the beneficiaries, upon the winding-up of the foundation, and upon a transfer of a beneficial interest in a foundation. These apply whether the foundation elected to be treated as company domiciled and resident in Malta or treated as a trust.
The Second Schedule to the Civil Code, moreover, allows for the possibility and specifically caters for the conversion of a foundation into trust and a trust into a foundation. However, both such conversions are irrevocable.
The substantial flexibility offered by foundations from an income tax perspective, principally on account of Malta’s Tax payment and refund system and the application of the participation exemption or the application of the “transparency model” applicable to trusts, allow for effective asset protection and estate planning.

Plastic found inside Pacific Ocean fish: researchers
Monday, March 14, 2011, 01:40 (GMT + 9)
Researchers who collected fish in the northern Pacific Ocean in 2008 said 35 per cent of the fish contained fragments of plastic in their stomachs. This marks the problematic effect that floating litter is having on marine wildlife, the researchers insist.
The study’s findings will be presented by the Long Beach, California-based Algalita Marine Research Foundation and the Southern California Coastal Water Research Project.
Researchers found that the fish had ingested two pieces of plastic each on average. However, scientists who dissected hundreds of plankton-eating lanternfish found that these fish contained as many as 83 plastic fragments each, reports The Los Angeles Times.
The study then raises concerns regarding how garbage makes its way back into the human body as it works its way through the food chain.
Further, the findings highlight the increasing problem of floating marine debris gathered in vast, slow-moving ocean currents known as gyres, such as the North Atlantic Gyre off the coast of Georgia, US, and the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, located within the North Pacific Gyre – currently the largest concentration of plastic waste on the planet.
Nonprofit Algalita runs scientific studies on the global spread of marine debris and pushes for limiting the world’s "plastic footprint" on water bodies like rivers and oceans. The Costa Mesa-based Coastal Water Research Project is an environmental research institute funded by 14 government agencies.
Together, the researchers trawled 1,000 mi off the coast for this study, seeking fish among floating debris particles in the Eastern Garbage Patch. Researchers then dissected and examined the fish at a lab.
Most of the fish found were lanternfish -- deep-sea dwellers that are both one of the most common ocean fish and a food source for popular species like tuna and mahi-mahi.
"As the larger pieces of plastic break down they mimic the size, shape and texture of natural food," said Charles Moore, the founder of Algalita and an author of the study. "What we're seeing is the entire food web being contaminated by plastic."
The study was published in the scientific journal Marine Pollution Bulletin and the research will be presented this month at the Fifth International Marine Debris Conference in Honolulu, Hawaii.
A study by French and Belgian biologists last January found more than 250,000 million plastic particles weighing over 500 tonnes floating in the Mediterranean Sea and also concluded that such phenomena infiltrate the entire ecosystem, covering the spectrum from plankton to humans.
- Over 500 tonnes of plastics threaten Mediterranean marine life
- Confirmation of plastic island in the Atlantic
- Group plans to turn trash vortex into island eco-paradise

Lake Cooper will not be topped up with environmental water.ELAINE COONEY January 29, 2014 4:19am
The Victorian Environmental Water Holder has ruled out topping up Lake Cooper with environmental water.
Campaspe News recently spoke to concerned Corop residents about the low water levels and rising salinity at the lake.
They suggested environmental flows would address the problem.
Victorian Environmental Water Holder chair Denis Flett said while the lake was used for a range of recreational activities, it was not considered a priority for environmental watering because it was not recognised in the Federal Government’s Directory of Important Wetlands in Australia as having significant environmental values.
He said wetlands were prioritised for environmental water delivery according to the significance of their environmental values.
Mr Flett said the Mansfield, Gaynor, Wallenjoe, Two Tree and One Tree swamps (within the Corop system) were identified as nationally significant wetlands because of the number and diversity of flora and fauna they supported.
Lake Cooper fisherman Aub Reddrop said there were many reasons environmental water should be used to top up the lake.
He said he often saw brolgas
Mr Reddrop was concerned that the lack of water in the lake would damage fish life and such birds would go elsewhere.
He said the lake hosted non-native redfin and carp, but if there was an agreement of consistent environmental flows to the lake, angling groups would consider stocking it with native fish.
‘‘The biggest plus for environmental flows is to get water in Gaynor Swamp,’’ Mr Reddrop said.
he said the safety of jet skiers and the protection of the Murray River were also important factors.
‘‘We need to get the jet skiers away from the Murray. They are eroding and dirtying the water and over the years there had been serious accidents and deaths,’’ he said.
‘‘At the lake it’s a safer open area with clear visibility.’’
Mr Reddrop has written to several federal and state ministers as well as local councillors about the issues.
Concerned Corop resident Trevor Speer said he was disappointed by the decision and did not know where the community would turn next.
He said he had noticed more birds in the area during the past few weeks.
‘‘It’s getting dry in NSW so they are coming down here for water,’’ he said.
‘‘It would be a shame to see it dry up,’’ he said.
Mr Speer recalled the lake drying up during the drought and the fish died.
He said the lake now hosted healthy fish and bird populations but he was concerned they would soon disappear.
‘‘A few more hot days like we had last week and the fish could cook,’’ he said.
He said the water in the lake sat about 60cm deep and another 50cm of fresh water could help.
Mr Speer said he was hoping for more rain to fill the lake.

A new legislation, the Non-governmental Organisations (NGOs) registration (amendment) bill 2014 has been approved by cabinet.
Through the bill, cabinet seeks to enhance documentation of funding for NGOs, their source of funds and enhance tracking mechanisms of their activities.
Addressing a news conference at the Uganda Media Centre on May 29, Rose Namayanja, the minister of Information and National Guidance, said government has been exploring ways of shielding Uganda from undocumented inflow and outflow of funds for NGOs.
Namayanja said undocumented funds cause difficulties in forecasting exchange rates, money laundering, tax evasion and raise the possibility of such resources being directed towards fanning instability.
"There has not been comprehensive information about the outlay of such resources and full listings of activities some NGOs are engaged in," she said.

John Ourand of SPORTS BUSINESS DAILY and SPORTSBUSINESS JOURNAL breaks the news today that the Versus TV show Jenn Sterger appears on, The Daily Line, has been canceled.
Ourand via Twitter:
“Versus has axed @jennifersterger’s show “The Daily Line” because of anemic ratings.”
Ah, the irony. Thanks to her reportedly reciprocal texting relationship with Brett Favre, Sterger has had her public profile explode in recent weeks. But that obviously didn’t translate to ratings.
Why? Read more…
We’re in the middle of a compelling NFL playoffs. The Jets just fired their head coach, and the Giants are about to host a divisional rival with whom they split two regular season games in a fascinating matchup. So what does the NEW YORK DAILY NEWS commit a significant amount of time and ink to on the first Monday back from the holidays? Former MAXIM and PLAYBOY pinup turned Jets Gameday host Jenn Sterger, of course!
(This is from the DAILY NEWS photo gallery, we swear to God.)
And making matters even more striking, they pull a botched Photoshop job on the “online sensation’s” face.
(Someone go fire the photo intern.)
Sure, Sterger is the kind of personality who might warrant an offseason story in April, when nothing is going on. But in the middle of the playoffs, with the Jets embroiled in a coaching search that may cost a popular college coach his job, Brett Favre hanging on a retirement decision by a thread and the NFL Draft just months away? Come on.
That’s before you consider all the time off many workers are returning from, with the public finally attacking the news full bore again now that everyone’s back at work. Don’t worry, we’ve got more photos of “The best of Jenn Sterger” from THE DAILY NEWS after the break.

Bus stop efficiencies and new signage will improve safety, traffic flow and RTS customer’s top priority—on-time-performance
RTS customers in Monroe County will see service improvements as RTS continues its transition from an outdated public transit model and routing system to a highly efficient one that provides service when and where customers need it most. Based on results of an independent study, RTS will gradually begin to eliminate 25 percent of redundant bus stops along its routes and, at the same time, update bus signs with clear information that reflects recent route changes. The project is expected to be completed within the next 12 months.
Transit authorities across the U.S. are making bus stop placement a priority in an effort to streamline service and reduce costs—a process known as “bus stop optimization.” Research has shown that too many stops frustrate customers with frequent starts and stops, reduce on-time-performance, waste fuel and increase emissions. Optimal placement of stops is considered to be five stops per mile. Significant improvements are seen when 40 to 45 percent of stops are removed.
RTS has an excessive number of bus stops—currently more than 3,400 overall, with as many as 14 to 16 per mile on some routes. RTS’ goal is to aim for a total of seven stops per mile in urban areas and up to five stops per mile in suburban areas—higher than recommendations—while ensuring that important, key stops and destinations and transfer points remain in place. As a result, 25 percent of RTS stops will be eliminated, a total of 472 stops in the City of Rochester and 437 in suburban areas of Monroe County.
The decision to remove stops was based on a detailed study funded by the Genesee Transportation Council and conducted by Passero & Associates. Goals, scope and proposed timeline and results of the study were first presented to the public at a workshop in September 2014 where attendees were invited to ask questions and weigh-in about bus stop locations in the event that RTS had overlooked a special need or hardship. RTS also posted the information online and on social media. To allow ample time for community feedback, the comment period was extended twice. As a result of community feedback, 29 additional stops will remain in place.
Notices were posted on stops targeted for removal the week of March 29.
New bus stop signs will make it easier than ever to ride RTS
RTS has also begun installing all new bus stop signs to provide easy-to-read information that customers want to know. Features of the new blue and green signs include:
· Information on which routes serve each stop
· Two-sided, reflective design that is easily visible at night for easier identification by Bus Operators and customers
· Bus stop ID numbers so customers can check real-time bus arrival time using the RTS Where’s My Bus app or myRTS.com.

Three more Neighbourhood Plans have been finalised and set in stone or ‘made’ by the South Downs National Park Authority in the last three months.
Members of the park’s planning committee are set to receive the latest update on work which has been carried out by communities on their plans when they meet next Thursday (July 14).
The latest plans to be finalised are Wisborough Green and Milland which went before park planners on June 9 and Fernhurst which was made in April.
The stakes in the neighbourhood plan game inside the boundaries of the South Downs National Park Authority (SDNPA) were raised earlier this year when national park officers said all communities intending to allocate housing sites in their neighbourhood plans should get them to ‘pre-submission stage at least six months before the consultation on the park’s own Local Plan.
Officers were expecting to go out to consultation on their plan in October this year and gave communities an April deadline.
But work on the park’s local plan ran into difficulties when the planning department hit a staffing crisis and the deadline came and went. Among the plans which had felt the heat was Petworth which was only at the first stage of evidence gathering in January this year.
But it has gathered momentum over the last few months and recently more than 400 people attended a public consultation event to consider a range of options relating to housing and highways, public realm improvements as well as community facilities and local green spaces.
Petworth’s pre-submission plan is now expected to be published at the start of next year and meet national park deadlines.
At Fittleworth the plan group has submitted an early draft version for initial comment and Horsham District Council officers have been commissioned by the park to help in the preparation of a strategic environmental assessment.
Bury’s pre-submission draft is expected in the next two months.
But at Lynchmere, the planning committee is due to be told, the plan has been put on hold whilst the parish council look for more volunteers to help carry out the work.

PROVO The Covey Center for the Arts presents Craicmore: Celtic Yuletide Celebration, featuring joyful, heartfelt seasonal songs like "I Saw Three Ships," "The Wassail Song" and "Sleigh Ride," along with traditional Scottish and Irish music.
In addition to the music, the celebration will include a half dozen engaging, funny word vignettes ranging from the Celtic origins of mistletoe to "Mrs. Fogarty's (not so delicious) Christmas Cake."
Band members Nancy Johnston, John MacAdams, Simon Watkins and Dave Champagne call themselves a "contemporary traditional Celtic band." The three male voices blend with Johnston's in delivering sparkling four-part harmonies, creating a sound that's full and yet sophisticated.
Formed in 1992, Craicmore moved from performing at small local street fairs, museums and libraries in the early '90s to main stage performances at prestigious folk festivals, Scottish and Irish cultural events and concert halls throughout the western United States. Of note are five consecutive years of performances at the classic "Fremont Street Experience" (Las Vegas' huge St. Patrick's Day celebration), and a 14-concert appearance at the International Music Festival in Shanghai, China. Throughout its 12-concert tour of Montana, Wyoming, Nevada and New Mexico, Craicmore received standing ovations. Craicmore's music has also been heard on NBC's "Days of Our Lives" and CBS's "Without a Trace."
Craicmore's approach is framed by abiding respect for the material, but maybe more important is the musicians' sheer joy in the music and willingness to take chances.
Johnston says, "Celtic music is a living tradition that continues to influence and absorb other traditions. For example, I sing a walking song in Scots Gaelic backed by a shruti box, a classical East Indian instrument. Its raspy drone is a perfect fit with the song."As a group, Craicmore draws their words and music from the traditional music of Ireland and Scotland and claim influences as diverse as the Afro Celts, Chieftains and Pogues, rock, and Australian indigenous music.

CEO of Ireland’s Nursing Board Visits Campus
On January 14 and 15, Dr. Dianne Cooney Miner and the Wegmans School of Nursing hosted Dr. Maura Pidgeon, Chief Executive Officer of Bord Altranais agus Cnáimhseachais na hÉireann, the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Ireland.
Pidgeon spent her time here visiting the School of Nursing faculty to discuss undergraduate education along with advanced practice nursing graduate and doctoral education. She also toured the school, simulation labs, and was hosted for a visit and tour of the University of Rochester Medical Center (URMC) by Pat Witzel, URMC Chief Nursing Officer and Senior Vice President of Patient Care.
An Bord Altranais is the regulatory body for the nursing profession in Ireland. It was established by the Nurses Act, 1950 to take over the functions of two bodies, the Central Midwives Board and the General Nursing Council, which had been established in 1918 and 1919, respectively. The Board was reconstituted and its functions were redefined and expanded by the Nurses Act, 1985.

"I am inside someone who hates me."
From the transcript of an interview with Fraulein Liebert:
I've often heard it told that twins, even as infants, develop their own private language, which only the two of them can understand. This is a fallacy...as far as I'm aware. My...my brother and I, we did not speak the same language. That did not stop us from comprehending each other, as much as I would like to deny it. A part of an individual can remain unknowable even to himself, but this barrier to communication does not necessarily split his essential unity as a person. It is very important to remember that. A person is always whole, no matter how fragmented he seems to himself or to others. Like a hard-boiled egg whose shell is cracked but continuous.
My brother...Johann...he would not have agreed with me. To him, I was neither a separate entity or an appendage of himself. He thought of me as his doppelganger. A mirror image, but not a perfect reflection: distorted, flawed. Or rather he thought of himself as the distorted one. We could not coexist, faced with this other who was not-other. But he loved me, I know, in his own way. He could not bring himself to eliminate me, whom he thought of as the truer image, and perhaps that is why he did what he did.
On the other hand, I was fully prepared to kill him myself. If I am to be honest, there was a point where I was able to do it. Psychologically, spiritually, mentally.
Inside me, there is a murderer. Johann and I never shared a language, but those were the last words he left impressed on my heart.

And it happened in a conservative, rural part of the country—a little good news:
In a community known for its conservative values, the high school senior class chose the only openly-lesbian students as "cutest couple." Destinee Gates was as surprised as anybody that she and her girlfriend, Becca Fernandez, beat out at least three other couples vying for the honor at Calaveras High School. "It's a big deal because we're from a really conservative county and it hasn't happened before," said Gates, 18. The couple has been openly dating since freshman year without any major problems, but worried about a backlash when they were named cutest couple in the yearbook two weeks ago. "We've been pretty well accepted," said Fernandez, 19. "I love this school," Gates added. Principal Ric Stitt said he understands why outsiders might be surprised by the senior vote, but said he's found the community to be very tolerant.
I look forward to the day when stories like this don't shock us because "values"—conservative or otherwise—is no longer synonymous with "anti-gay."

I loved writing Abbey and Garrett’s story. I’ve focused on big, dark thrillers for a while now so writing this one was like coming home to my roots. The featured photo is just a glimpse of the long, snowy drive deep into the woods to the house where Abbey, the heroine in Frozen Ground, grew up. As the storm hits, the snow gets deeper and deeper! I hope you’ll enjoy all these fabulous stories. I am fortunate to have worked with such amazing talents–pioneers of the genre! Don’t miss a single one of the stories!
While working on FROZEN GROUND, I went to Montana to research the setting. I stayed at the Murray hotel in Livingston just as some of my characters do in the story. I interviewed a Park County deputy and visited the station. It was an incredible adventure!

The Wild Shroom
Found a log out in the woods growing shrooms! It was the perfect backdrop for this Wild Shroom hat. How cool is the rust burnt coloring of this hat! It was meant to be growing in the wild :) There’s a laser engraved mushroom on the crown and a series of them engraved on the brim. A black leather custom band has been made just for this hat! I’ve taken a turkey feather and wrapped it with suede cording and made the cutest mushroom pin to go with it. There’s also mushroom charms dangling from the back with suede cording that’s been wrapped to match all the stitching. What would one of our hats be without some matches stitched in.. you never know when you might need them!
One of a kind hat
This is a large size hat. If you have a small head it’s not worth trying to adjust it, it will still be too big :)

A battle of words between memory and amnesia
Poetry: Leanne O’Sullivan’s new collection is shaped by a devastating illness suffered by her husband; Geraldine Mitchell finds sustenance in even the bleakest landscapes
Leanne O’Sullivan: capably invokes tricky mythological material in A Quarter of an Hour. Photograph: Donal O’Sullivan
In each of her four books, Leanne O’Sullivan has managed the balancing act of fashioning striking individual poems while developing a book-length project. Skilful and soulful, her achievements as a writer are as clear as ever in her powerful new book, A Quarter of an Hour (Bloodaxe, £9.95).
Preoccupied with mortality and loss, the book is shaped by a severe illness her husband suffered in 2013, a brain infection which led to a coma and, devastatingly, the almost total loss of his memory.
His stricken body is at the centre of the poems, “a face smooth like wax paper” in Lightning, “the wound pulled wide/ by the cannula, its dark weeping undulations” in Tracheotomy, a poem in which O’Sullivan’s fascinated engagement with the trauma is framed in original, resonantly alliterative lines:
the vocal reeds, filmy white, beams on a footbridge, fascia,
muscle, isthmus, your domain of secrets,
of rained-on tributaries, rooted and grafted
onto the machines
And O’Sullivan is conscious of her art’s complicit but fruitful relation to such material: “I felt like the woman who gazed and gazed into/ the mouth of the little god. I saw everything.”
The book’s imaginative power is also due to O’Sullivan’s capable invocation of tricky mythological material. The figure of the Cailleach, who was at the heart of her second book, returns, while the husband’s coma and disappearance from the poet’s life is recast, slantwise, through the stories of Oisín and that of Eurydice and Orpheus, who is, in Meteor Shower, “still terrified/ of the truth and trailing after her”.
O’Sullivan considers her own allusive method, quite brilliantly, by allusion to two obscure figures from The Faerie Queene, figures Edmund Spenser had used to think about memory. Reflecting on her husband’s slow recovery of language and memory, these poems also ask questions about why we value poetry.
Eumnestes imagines the writer as a place’s memory, a sort of librarian-historian taking down “everything I could remember/ – the big bang,/ the years of Nestor, the great disasters/ and disturbances of the weather, world ending/ and world beginning”, a written record which enables augury, foresight and the predictive powers of divination.
Anamnestes is written in the voice of Eumnestes’s servant, “memory’s helper”, who is less scholarly, less in thrall to history, and who uses the written word to discover “a world I saw I could live in/ and in it become anyone”. When Anamnestes escapes the library, he finds, “out of the words you wrote mine were borrowed/ but followed their own meandering course.” Renewing his/her attention to the physical, external world, “I put my ear to the machinery of the deep earth/ and listened. I came to understand it myself.”
The “machinery of the deep earth” is elsewhere represented by animals, especially birds and foxes. The impenetrable existence of these other creatures is patiently explored, almost as a counterpart to the way the poems attend to the silent, ill lover. Morning Poem describes the struggle to find or re-learn the right sounds and words for these creatures:
Somewhere near him a stone unsettles itself
And a beast in the blue light turns over.
What sound do you make to find that?
What symbol means nothing at all?
One of the book’s foxes is known by “its exploded eye/ that held a shape you could not recognise,/ the name of the river folding back along/ the river” (The Fox), but another poem offers a more hopeful, chancy kind of encounter. A beautiful, measured lyric, in what is an involving, marvellously expansive book, it observes a fox appearing “out of the perishing hedgerows”:
What is she doing? He thought. She said,
I am waiting to see what you will do next.
That’s funny, he said, beginning to follow,
I am doing the very same thing.
And that was the way they went, morning
after morning, the hedgerows turning
their infinite colours, the body with its one fire.
It is sometimes said that you “can’t eat the scenery”, but Geraldine Mitchell does turn her Mayo base to good use in the poems of Mountains for Breakfast (Arlen House, €12). These landscapes, even when bleak, are somehow sustaining, in the ways they allow her to read and understand her situation. In Go, there is jangling menace in lines such as:
Wind tangles in rivers of air, catches
on trees, carries sheep bleat, dog bark
– lets them drop.
I am strung round with sounds
Just out of meaning,
A chance to think
The more narrative thread of the collection recounts the descent of Alzheimer’s on a loved one, so that Swarm sees “Bees from a hive, words/ brim your parted lips” while loss is savagely registered in Wanting, “mottled feathers/ behind the blue hydrangea” are “all that remain/ when the merlin/ has emptied the garden/ of song.”
The insistence of Mitchell’s observations is nicely offset in a diary-like sequence, bearing the awkward title Discredited Form, Discredited Subject Matter (after Charles Wright), where the natural images are linked to particular dates as well as moods, and mixed in with news items, dreams and a more comical note, as when the discovery of a perfect adjective – “braided” – leads to a more critically self-conscious thought about her own craft: “The road runs with/ braided water. I lie/ thinking about verbs,/ Annie Proulx, her/ strong use of.”
John McAuliffe’s fourth book is The Way In (Gallery, 2015). He teaches poetry at the University of Manchester’s Centre for New Writing.

First Kiss by Emily T. Only sounds Are those Of crickets And rain Drops slide down Foggy windows Leaving long Clear streaks From A Daughter To A Mother by Aiswarya Gopan You gave birth to me and brought me into this world You watched over me, fed me, read to me, and sang me lullabies You taught me how to take my first steps, held my hands through it all As I learnt how to put one foot in front of the next Letting go of your grip, when you were sure I wouldn’t fall You made sacrifices for me, putting my joys before yours All the time driven by a dream to make my life better than the life you had Molding me into the person I am today Infusing life into me with every lesson you taught You have cried infinite tears of joy, through all phases of my life No words would be sufficient to thank you for all that you have done for me Mother, you have been the best teacher I could ever ask for For you taught me how to live my life, and be proud of who I am today For that, more than merely bringing me into this world, I will forever be indebted to you As only a daughter can be towards her mother I am humbled yet liberated as I confess the love I have for you For everything you have been to me – my strength, my meaning, my maker, my mother
My first kiss Wasn’t meant To be Like this It was meant To be sweet Tender Loving Not fast Hasty Empty Unemotional Entirely wrong.
Purple Reign by Tom Baker Our relationship is flawed; dysfunctional but I never meant to cause you any sorrow We are once again two lonely souls adrift in the cosmos Funny but it seems that u’re alone like me It’s not written in stone that we must stay that way So here I sit in my lonely room Wishing you were here again and all mine It’s just another manic Monday Another sad day after a lazy week’s end but I never meant to cause you any pain Hate that I’m the reason you cried For the tears in your eyes if they’re tears of sorrow Cut me to the core and I don’t want to continue hurting you Why do we scream at each other I fantasize about forgiveness when we’ll be one again We all want the stuff that’s found in our wildest dreams Remember at the beach caught in the down pour? I only want to see you laughing in the purple rain We vowed then to stay married forever, no matter what cause Something ’bout the clouds and you mixed Now the sun is out but now we are miserable This condition I got is crucial We were always meant to be together; wedding rings attest Everybody always told me good things come 2 those who wait My prayers were answered in you I prayed that I could have u all 2 myself God heard my prayer and sent you to me All the other kids would love to love you but you’re my little private joy
Opposites attract, they always do my social butterfly I was the kind of man who’d rather stay at home Selfishly I didn’t want to share you with the world Vous etes tres belle I was blinded by your beauty and so was he The beautiful ones, they hurt u every time I forgave you now you forgive yourself and come back If I could just look u in the eye And tell you how much I miss you, want you, love you If I was your one and only friend Would you forget the past and be my wife again? I get so discouraged, I never see you anymore Tears of joy will pour down when once again we embrace then Let’s kiss with one synonymous notion A marathon of sad thought traverse my mind Nothing can stop this lonely rain from falling Not unless you drop everything and run back to your man Rain is wet, sugar is sweet Whenever we make love so are you; my arms miss you so I’m blinded by the daisies in your yard Still captivated by the aroma of your nectar How come you don’t call me anymore Wait, I see you there coming up the steps, opening the door The most beautiful girl in the world Wanting to still and always and forever be mine I only want to see you bathing in the purple rain Let’s start anew again forsaking all others because
Magic In The Backyard by Kellie Elmore Soft spoken eyes, infectious laughter, her spirit so young, a dreamer, a doubter On the dewy grass beneath the sun, sun-kissed cheeks, dreams ready to run Curly blond locks, sweet dimpling smile A wonderland awaits in the mind of a child For all that she sees, through innocent heart A whimsical journey only she can take part
What A Lie by Shyaire Ganglani Look at me. I lied. Watch me as I fall. Try to pick me up and realise that I’m broken. That the pieces fall everywhere. Mock me as I crawl away. Taunt me in the corner. You don’t need stick and stones. You’ve got words. The world has words. Throw them at me piece by piece and watch them cut my soul. Watch me bleed the liquid hurt. Watch me as I fall apart. Piece by piece, word by word, Look at me; I’m broken.
Pinks and purples illuminating her sky, she looks to the heavens, lays back with a sigh She takes up her journal and begins to pen coloring the pages with what she puts in Capturing the essence of all that she sees The sweat on her neck now cooled by the breeze The dew on the grass and sun in the sky Just she and her pen and swatting at flies She tells the pages a story that’s hers and makes her backyard magic with words Painting fairies and princes from flowers and trees Penning perfection with grass-stained knees
So by Iris Orpi So you want me to talk to you about loneliness. So you want me to tell you how cold the days are even at high noon and how hollow the darkness of the nights unable to hide the glowing green eyes of brokenness, how I wake up each morning in a state of panic because the world ahead has no warmth in store for me and go to sleep each night with my heart heavy as lead. So you want me to tell you emptiness is a centipede with a hundred feet that noiselessly tread the cracks on the walls of my soul that used to be a dam of abundant emotion in which I used to dip my fountain pen for ink. So you want me to explain how whispers bounce off the ear drums of the deaf. So you want me to explain a painting to the blind.
But I have no reason to, and there are no words in any language or any dictionary translation of silence to describe how much I miss you.
Living Upside Down by Kelly Hay I’m living upside down in a right side up world being tossed and tumbled about, like in a dryer with no off switch having been left for far too long heart battered and bruised, I emerge soul singed and wrinkled. And yet still you try to fold me vainly attempting to smooth life’s creases with your hand, an exacting science, precise measurements, a life molded to fit into a drawer of your own choosing. Who is this demographic god and can he be slaughtered? Maybe I would rather be hung up, air dried or casually tossed upon the floor to stretch out. We should all refuse to be folded, trimmed, shaped, mended to fit someone else’s framed box.
The One With The Curls by Luke Prater What became of my summertime girls? On that field grazes a cow what became of the one with the curls? This malaise like a flag, it unfurls on that field lazes a plough what became of my summertime girls? Through Winter, desolation uncurls those people and places are gone, now what became of the one with the curls? What became of her sweet smile of pearls? I need dreams to help me along, now what became of my summertime girls? I’m far from these fanciful whirls the maze up ahead asks me: how? What became of the one with the curls? The Ladies have all met their Earls ach! Wo ist meine Frau? What became of my summertime girls? What became of the one with the curls?

I Want Chocolate by Jessica D’Angelo I want a man called Chocolate who takes me to the heights of ecstasy with one tiny lick I want a man called Chocolate who can excite me even when still wrapped up in his coat I want a man called Chocolate who can transport me to Heaven as he melts in my mouth so slowly I want a man called Chocolate who can come in so many varieties white, dark and milky I want a man called Chocolate who can be bought for so little yet is always my prince lying naked in my hands.
Passion Fruit by Shadow Mandoll His lips against mine, I feel so erotic. The sweet smell of fruit, something exotic. His hand reaches down, to my warmth hidden low. His fingers move gentle, he touches me just so. I scream out in pleasure as my orgasm comes near, It’s building inside of me, I’ll explode I do fear. He stops just short of climax, it hurts; I want to scream. Now he’s smearing it across my chest, whipped cream. He licks and flicks his tongue, I’m on the verge, I want to come. He gets on top, so fast, and slides himself inside, I scream and yell “Oh God Yes!” my delight I can’t confine. He pumps so hard and fast, I cannot stop the rush. I scream his name and claw his back, my ecstasy can’t be hushed. He comes so hard, my mind explodes, the end is here at last. We lay in bed, legs in-twined, until the after glow has passed.
Mating Call by The Reason You Come Chest on chest, mouth on mouth, arms wrapped around Their bodies while the heat flows through their veins Tongue now upon neck to the beating sound Of the Siren’s call that love’s priest ordains As the music to which lovers should dance; They shake and gyrate with naked desire Take advantage of this off’ring of chance Writhing, burning, on the hedonist’s pyre Hips in fluid motion grind against him Already giddy, he tastes her with ease The heat inside him boils close to the brim She pushes him away; she’s just a tease Surrounding them, raw carnal smell is strong Wet lips are felt on flesh the whole night long
Erections vs. Wetness by Butterfly Effect Is there a name for the joy of making erections sprout from my essence? I love how embarrassed he gets from not being able to conceal his reactions to my sensual seduction Legs swaying back and forth in anxious anticipation With thoughts of falling into a dark mind blowing hole of drowning sensations His eyes close as his bar grows warming his inner thigh Veins are plumpy pulsating making him spit creamy leaks wetting his boxer briefs Squirming as he tries to gain control of his magic wand yearning to cast spells Slowly licks his lips while watching her breasts waltz from every bounce in her switch Leaning over sticking her bottom to the air She confesses in his ear her desires to ride him Instantly his stick leaps. Mmmmm… he thinks, “I can’t wait to see that, ride me please” My arousal is not easily hidden either… pay attention Lips swell engulfing my button as she grows Juice on the mountain peak bless my panties Changing positions in my seat only makes more of a mess… antsy Steam from my dewy damp place gives off a strong sweet aroma that drives his senses crazy The girls sit up straight choosing him with their pointy nips Quietly sighing from the intense, pleasuring pain created from the bra rubbing my Hersey kisses Envisioning the hardness behind his zipper makes my sweat… glisten Panting with laborious flutter… Can’t stop complaining of the weather inside producing hot flashes much like heat invasions So, are you still unable to see my arousal? just wait until I get up from my seat my skirt is sticking to me
Fantasies by Yvonne Burhannan This mind has turned into another mode Day dreaming of fictions never told Unending love making is about to unfold So prepare for a love making poem… Only in my dreams am I free With you laying on side of me Gentle lips touching each cheek As your tongue explores my body for something to eat… Time has no meaning in my sleep Moment by moment Each breathe makes my heart beat Anticipation now rises within these sheets… Kissing my breast Licking away all the stress Whispers of untold love kills realities caress Massage my thighs to make me feel blessed…. Now sex away everything that causes pain Bringing my soul out of rain Feeling each stroke gives release to this restrain But only fantasies will this remain. Thoughts Of You by 1ManView Moisten droplets, ease past swollen lips, Wet panties lowered, Knees rise toward bosom, Heated fingertips slide in slippery feminine sweat… Desire consumes loins, As thoughts of you rekindle the passion we shared last night, Intertwined as one…
Even Alone She Thinks Of Me by Tom Baker Venus In Lace by W. I. Boucher
You reveal yourself night after night But you have no idea I sit in the dark tonight And watch your silhouette climb on the bed
My sweet venus in white lace bound tight to the warm earth by the silken cords of desire
My senses are on high alert My eyes tell my brain start a riot Causing an uprising in my loins
burning passion’s chains bind her wrapped round her racing heart My goddess and slave of love
I gaze at you as your nipples peek through Your slender fingers as you caress your breasts Massaging you swollen nipples
she wakes the hungry beast that by her touch may tame she bends it’s will to her needs
I reach down quietly for my sensitivity At the same time you reach for your juicy tenderness Your back arches and I hear a sigh.
she softly calls out my name warm as a summer breeze she beckons me come closer
My lips form a smirk as I listen intently To the symphonic rhythms and sounds of fingers and damp lips A sound I’ve only before heard when it was my fingers
an invitation to worship deep her flawless alabaster temple in that secret perfumed grotto
Moonlight draws my gaze again to your still hard nipples Slowly I lick my lips wanting a nibble for myself Anus clenched your finger slips inside; I want a taste
heaven nestled safe between those smooth and graceful twin pillars of her supple thighs
What’s that I smell? Is it lusty musk in the air? You roll on your stomach and spreading eagle Thrusting yourself into the palms of your hands
to drink my fill of ambrosia made drunk by that spring flowing so pure for me alone
I imagine it is my fingers causing you to moan Your hips move faster your breathing more shallow I faintly hear you deeply utter my name rolling over and collapsing The deed is done. Off to dreamland now that you’ve cum I close my eyes and play the scene again in my head And I smile now my deed is done, knowing I’m in my wife’s fantasies.

I Should’ve Died In My Sleep Last Night by Maria Carizza I said I’d be okay when you leave. I would’ve prepared myself before then. What started in an instant can be cut off just as fast. Yeah, I’ve heard of that a lot… … from myself even. So why now does it still hurt? I said this would’ve brought about a good poetry or prose but the words just don’t fit. Or was it my heart that slipped? Screw my heart. Bash my head. In the end, this will still be the end. Yeah, I lost it. I lost you. I lost me. What I have left are what-ifs and could-have-beens. Crap. I’m the one to lose again and I’m the one I should blame. In my ears, Evanescence is playing. Inside, all of me is breaking. My head is clouded, my eyes teary. The words just fall away from me. I said I’d be ready when you leave. So why the hell do I still grieve? I lost grip. It came to me that before it started, I lost already. I close my eyelids ’cause they got heavy and I wait for my tears to fall freely.
Dark Side Of The Moon by Shirley Alexander There was a time, I could shine. When I thought of you, I could shine. I stand alone under night heaven; feel light on my upturned face. Does it glow if you are not watching? I might have been this moonlight, a reflection of your distant fire. But, I became the dark face and she, your moon. Somewhere inside, a new light burns. It is a world without phases, a place where day welcomes night and returns to warm the morning. I stand alone under night heaven. There was a time, we could shine. There was a place, I could burn. Wings spread, a wiser phoenix will rise from the ashes of your fire. Do you shine if I am not watching?
Meditation by Emmanuel Ibok Loving kindness protect you wherever you are whatever you do; keep you safe like a baby in the motherâ€™s arms; show you love undiluted like the universe; prevent you from fears and negativity, the type that creeps in at night to kill the soul in the morning. Loving mercy forgive you forgive me too forgive us all and reverse the hands of karma and nemesis those ones we unintentionally call on ourselves. Let the soul be lifted and let the body nourish from it. Positive energy to guide you to your goal where weâ€™ll meet to celebrate successes In peace.
Moving On by Indu Prakash But that day, turned everything around I heard you talking to your friends about me You were telling them sick things and How it I was the easiest of all his preys Your words felt like knives piercing me You were a wolf in a sheep’s clothing I realized that you were just pretending You saw me, and I could see it In your eyes that you were not sorry But you came running after me apologizing And how you were just joking around, And I said ” How could you do this to me, I thought I knew you, Just leave me alone, And don’t ever come into my life again” I felt deserted I never imagined we’d end like this Darkness creeping into my life As I realized that everything was gone The girl in the mirror was betrayed, and she cried herself to sleep But then again, finding out now was easier And I want you to know that I’m moving on.
Realize by Hailey Kim I’ve never thought about the people I’ve hurt, Just always the one that hurt me, Never thought about the people I’ve left, Just always the ones that left me, Ever about the people I’ve betrayed, Always the ones that betrayed me, Always thought about the ones they did wrong, And never confronted mine, Why is it that I realized now, On the front step of my house, Is it the dark earthy sky that is giving me time to conceive, about the dozens I have done wrong, And never about me.. As I am sixteen, But It feels like I’ve already lived more than half of my life years, Maybe it’s just the difficulties, That’s only made me feel this way, Further more, I know I’ll meet light, I visualize my soon-to-be present, But I have to admit, That the way there is pretty opaque, I not only believe, but I see the soon-to-be future, lying so close to my toes, Closer than feet, tipping over the edge of the water
Midnight by Cofiboi where dreams awake and reality slumbers the moon smiles and the stars, fiery like candles burns away the remnants of day night stands proud and the sun hides behind the cloak of the blackest of skies dawn still sleeps midnight i lay beside you silent, like a shadow i plant a kiss, yet you do not stir outside, the wind whispers your name and we are still midnight black, like satin, flowing freely smooth like the still waters cold like december sleep slowly creeping, like my fingers combing your hair midnight you wake and smile teeth like diamonds gleaming in the dark you take me and i, you midnight the wolves howl and i moan deep. deeper into the darkness silken kisses, masking the hunger that night awakened at midnight.
For Prayers Were Sung by C. Dominique Gibson Singing Prayers, For the hopeless wanderer For in his nomadic beauty, There is strength in his tireless search for nothing Reality has escaped him, His shadow replaced the man he used to be, A man who came to believe in nothing, Because he stopped dreaming Or, perhaps because his dreams, Had awakened before being realized Premature birth of things that died before coming into fruition Lungs barely formed to breathe in lifeâ€™s fuelâ€Ś hope of the human spirit Pray not for his direction, Nor for that nonexistent thing for which he searches, Pray for those lost dreams that faded before he could grasp them, Before he could hold them in his arms or express to them his love, Pray because his dreams died long before he will, And that he lost the very heart, That would afford them a proper burial.
Colors Of Nature by Olivia Pick up a rainbow and a few metallic shades: The Sun takes from Red to Yellow, The Sky that forms the backdropFrom Blue till Violet, Sometimes, it reaches till Red. The nature takes the shades of GreenAlso, Brown- that’s obtained when all colors are mixed. That all colors when absorbed produce Black, And when reflected, form White, is not “logic”, but a Science. Look above yourselfGolden is Sun’s fiery rays, Silvern is the cool Moonlight. The Stars are the Gemstones precious, Diamonds and all the colored ones. The meteors maybe the mineralsThe shooting ones, the white metals.. The burning ones- the yellow metalloid; Asteroids the other ores, The Comets maybe the shining crystals!! Birds, Butterflies, Worms, FlowersTake all colors and shades possible.. Humans although take from beige to dark brown, Seldom shows the gravity of containing all within themselvesThey appear to be hollow’ ones devoid of any color at all!!

Last Night by Cha’s Palette Here comes the rain, pouring down my window Tapping on my pane, lingering are my sorrows For every drop of rain, tears run down my cheeks And all the memories coming back, they are making my heart sick I write our names on my window’s mist And there, at the back of my mind, our final kiss Painful yet sweet; Passionate yet so tormenting Afterwhich, a smile across my lips, so deceiving I sat alone in this dark, empty room Looking for solace against my self-made doom As I hug my pillow tight, I think about you and me Wishing it was you I’m holding, instead of mem’ries Rain pours, tears fall; Memories come to life As I say goodbye in this cold, dark night…
Two Stars by Joel Fagerberg Stars entangled in space time fabric wrapped around us like bed sheets like each other’s arms on a cold week day morning An eternal supernova explode light to give to each other and the world unremittingly and natural this magnetic energy between us The universe is simply shocked inspired smiling in response to our interwoven rays that shine in every color and forever shine brightly You pull me in and I pull you closer because the way we understand each other travels faster than light ever could
Shadow Of The Night by Tim Moss I can sense it I can feel it’s Lurking shadow Following me Throughout the night It haunts me Wishing for the morning light And waiting for it to fall upon me Throughout the day The shadow stays away For light it hates But it stays up late Now with no ones help I am faced by myself To fight this shadow Or bow down low But I can’t fight A might That is greater then me But I won’t be The known But rather the unknown I shall be, And let the shadow of the night, Kill me softy
Sunday Morning by Kimeko Shera Farrar Lift me up a little higher So I can see over the Monday morning blues that are already starting to set in And I can move beyond the mistakes I made last week Heal whatever problems are testing my faith In my body, my mind, my spirit Because I desire To have the physical strength to handle whatever obstacles are sent to make me stronger I desire To have enough wisdom to make decisions untainted by present circumstances or worldly desires I desire To be filled with enough patience and peace to wait on what is meant for me Lift me up a little higher Not so I can rise above others And not so I can be more than I need to be But so I can pull as many as possible up with me And they can benefit from the journey I have been promised and I will have your favor Because I shied away from greed, selfishness and pettiness I give all I have with every heave of my chest and bat of my eyelash I will not get tired, I will not give up, I will not give out So in the end I can be lifted up a little higher
A House Turned To Ice by Te'kia Miller No longer is there any warmth in our home Walls decorated in frosty ice Cracked where angry fists hit in frustration My face just as cracked, bruised from the recent encounter I once knew your heart to be warm A place to lay my head, to lay my love Something has hollowed you out Replaced a loving spirit with a foul spirit Ice now courses through your veins Vile words of acid burn through me My heart healed over and over Frets constantly not knowing when youâ€™ll strike again It has grown heavy with scar tissue How much more it can take I know not Dark stares from glassy eyes Are void of light Alas weâ€™ve become mere shadows Moving through the halls Of a house turned to ice
Beautiful by Vikram Parmar BEAUTIFUL isâ€Ś being perfectly real to follow your dreams to be what you are meant to be to fly around in thoughts forgetting the droughts sleeping under stars, vanishing scars watching it rain for hours a laugh like flowers wanting to go through it all over again, still loving the pains scattering light, the first fight to have a feeling that possesses, to be alone in recesses taking action, reaching perfection
thought of you, like morning dew your eyes, your smile, nothing venile to witness you, a myth that came true ;D you in the morning, cautiously warning to breathe you, in the hue to grow old with you to die with you to *** seek you an enchanted hope,out in the blue! BEAUTIFUL is â€“ ME with YOU. *** To seek you is to seek me for myself.
Love by Redragonfly When you sing under the moonshine And the wind blows soft it’s voice Make the leaves dance with each other Like nature can feel everything Your heart is in love
And you, You are my rainy summer My winter sun My autumn touch of gold My spring happy songs
Maybe sometimes you will cry all day Trying to keep the heart from breaking Hurting your self for many reasons without explanation And drop your tears down to the earth It is love, too
I Love you For better and worse No reasons For everything No questions Just loving you And only you …
There’s definitely no sense Just doing and doing what you want Love has no reason Love has no why No who no how No question Everytime everything is changed Being different for me and you Something old something new Someone stays another moves Never be silent for the streets Time passes away with no care But one still in heart Loving is like lighting the darkness Lie down body in blossom Feel the air touch the hair Let anything flow anyway
She by iBeingMe Sitting at a table she writes what’s in her heart sharing words of love, pain and friendship that tear her apart but every word she writes is true about her empty soul and the way that her life spirals out of control making her question what she must have done to be treated as she is by life because she can not see anything she’s ever done to be worthy of such pain I know she’ll find happiness again.

Monday night will features all the couples performing one standard routine along witha freestyle -- that's typically the dance that determines who receives one of the most votes among the audience. Highlights these year's superb musical roster include the Zac Brown Band, 2010 Grammy Award Winner for best New Artist, Julianne Hough, ABC Television's Dancing an issue Stars two-time winner turned country music sensation, Uncle Kracker, Detroit hometown favorite, and Darryl Worley, Billboard Magazine's Hot Country Songs chart topper. Foote recently spoke to LexGo, and recalled his early days with Strait. He said, "I was 23 and i think George was 24, mayhap. We were playing local beer joints and dance halls and really did that for greater part of six years until contacted us his record deal with MCA. In fact, until George had his record deal, we'd never played outside of Texas. Workouts an excellent time. Most of my favorite memories were when we first opened. " Foote also had some nice things to say about Strait's touring partner, Reba McEntire. He recalls touring with Reba years ago along with sharing new tour dates with the girls.

John Rogers, CFA, is the former president and CEO of the CFA Institute and currently guides SWM International in Georgia as director and chairman of the audit committee. Having traveled extensively over the past three decades, John Rogers, CFA, has a passion for Middle Eastern and Japanese food.
Known for its seafood, Japan offers a surprisingly diverse food culture that includes dishes such as the Osaka region favorite, okonomiyaki. Cooked on a grill and with similarities to a pancake, frittata, or omelet, okonomiyaki incorporates ingredients such as bacon, cabbage, flour, and eggs. Typically, the flour is first mixed with water and shredded cabbage added, along with meat that ranges from shrimp to sliced Chinese sausage. Mixed with eggs on a hot griddle, it is formed into a thick pancake, with bacon strips placed on top.
After being flipped over and browned to perfection, condiments such as mayonnaise, sauce, dried bonito flakes, and dried seaweed are added on top. The large size of the okonomiyaki “pancake” makes it a social dish ideal for sharing with friends.

Cytomegalovirus infection and Guillain-Barré syndrome: A first case-control study in children in Iran
Iranian Journal of Child Neurology,
Vol. 15 No. 4 (2021),
2 October 2021
Objective: Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an immune-mediated disease of the peripheral nervous system which affects all age groups through the world. Although the pathogenesis and optimal treatment of GBS are still not completely established, one of the most common infectious diseases to trigger the syndrome is cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection. GBS following CMV infections is rarely reported in childhood and there is no data on GBS with antecedent CMV infection in children in Iran. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of CMV infection and GBS in children in Iran.
Materials & Methods: Case-control study design was used in 30 cases of Guillain-Barre syndrome, and 30 matched controls. All serum samples were tested for the presence of anti-CMV IgM and IgG antibodies using a commercially available ELISA (EUROIMMUN Medizinische, Germany).CMV viral DNA in the specimen was detected using polymerase chain reaction (PCR), (Cytomegalovirus PCR Detection Kit, CinnaGen company, Iran).
Results: Anti–CMV immunoglobulin (Ig) G antibodies were detected in GBS patients and healthy controls in 97% and 93% of children, respectively. Anti-CMV IgM antibodies were demonstrated in 33% (n=10) of the healthy controls and 33% (n=10) of the children with GBS. The borderline level of anti-CMV IgM antibodies was found in 23% healthy controls (n=7) and 13% (n=4) in the children with GBS (p=0.57), respectively. None of the specimens from the both controls the cases with GBS was positive for CMV DNA by PCR.
Conclusion: These data demonstrated the presence of anti-CMV antibodies in a majority of both patients with GBS and controls and no relation between CMV infection and GBS was observed. However, further studies with larges sample sizes are highly recommended.

Grizzily at Beer on Sunday March 10th 2019
Last year we were ‘snowed off’ playing at the Grizzily. Beaten by the snow and ice. Hopefully we thought we would be better prepared this year (forecast is windy and wet). Keeping hold of our music and music stands while trying to play we knew would be interesting!!!!
AND IT WAS SO……..wow was it windy!. Trying to hold down two gazebos, music stands and our music tested us to the mettle. Well done Ali for keeping us together and keeping us going. We’ve had some very appreciative comments on our efforts and playing. Breakfast at a local hostelry before we started was very enjoyable.
What is the Grizzly? To find out CLICK HERE
But here’s a taster
This year Ali (our musical director) had to pull out of the (fun???) event due to injury, so she took to conducting us. Ali even threatened to play one of her saxophones while conducting us and holding on to her own music (alas it didn’t happen). Instead of a performance fee for playing in Beer for the Grizzly Run our monies were sent to ARC (Axminster Recovery with Counselling).
May 2019 – Concert at Millbrook Village Exeter
We were invited back to play at Millbrook Village Exeter at a Bar-B-Q event on Thursday 23rd May. Quite a night! – all went well until the smoke from the BBQ turned against us -we should have played ‘Smoke Gets in your Eyes’ – one for next year (maybe). Thank you Millbrook it was a great evening and your hospitality was superb.
June 2019 – Lunch Time Concert at the Minster (Axminster)
We were invited back to play a Lunch Time Concert at the Minster (Axminster). This is their 35th season. These concerts are always popular with local residents and visitors. The packed audience seemed to enjoy with our set. The acoustics really allow our sound to flow.
The purpose of these concerts is to support young musicians and local performers alike, as well as encouraging all those who are working towards specific musical goals.
Saxminster’s end of year ‘Play for Fun’ July 2019
This is our annual wrap for the 2018/19 season. As usual this was at Lyme Regis on the sea front (Saturday 13th July). It a time when we can let our hair down (at least a little bit). We put out chairs and anyone is free to come along to sit, stand , walk on, dance etc. and generally come to enjoy with us our music and our playing. We had some good audiences both for the morning and afternoon sets. It’s was free, has seating and is very popular with locals and holiday visitors. Yes you had a chance to hear us twice!. If you missed it watch out for this event in next year’s calendar.
We usually add a group picture here, but this year our photographer firstly had other ideas!
Funny that….. we just happened to be playing that song…………………..
I’ve just got time for quick 40 winks between number’s”
And finally – this is how hard we really work……..
Everything is put into our music – including the kitchen sink!
We can’t end without a group picture or two from our Lyme Regis day
Seaton Park Run – Saturday 21st December 2019
Thanks Ali, Norman & Jon for a really great year!
