| lucydod chapter 16 . 10/14/2013
I can't stop reading this, it's so GOOD! I'm almost afraid to check if there's an ending. Please let this story not stop at a cliffhanger. I might cry XD
| Always chapter 4 . 8/19/2012
Glorfindel is awesome! As is Fingon, and Feanor, and Beleg, and Legolas, and so on...
:) I love elves.
| I chapter 26 . 12/22/2011
I don't understand something here...why is Mithrandir using all these to make the prisoner talk? Galadriel could just read his mind...she's well-known for this ability. She could even speak in anyone's mind! She tasted the fellowship for weaknesses, and if I'm not mistaken, she did find Boromir suspicious!
| I chapter 17 . 12/22/2011
Your story is very, very good! Just one thing though, it's only a suggestion, nothing more: I think it would be better if you gave a more strong appearance to Thanduil, after all he is The Elvenking, and his appearance very strong in 'The Hobbits', someone who didn't show fear. It just seemed wrong to me that he'd be so weak in this one. Also, isn't it a little unfair that Estel wouldn't go to sleep while Thranduil would? Otherwise very good!
| MissMcGinger chapter 30 . 10/18/2010

as always an excellent fic. you sure do love injuring poor old Legolas, don't you.
i have to say i have been impressed with everything i've read of yours so far and am looking forward to reading more.
thanks for yet another great fic.
| KeiraAchiOkanabe chapter 30 . 11/7/2007
Yes...the Spiders! :D :D I love your tale of, "The Evil Inside." Man, I wish there were more hurt/comfort writers out there. Especially those who actually enjoy writing the gross medical detail. I love that :D
| KeiraAchiOkanabe chapter 11 . 11/7/2007
YES! HE IS AWAKE! :D :D :D
| animefreak44 chapter 26 . 1/2/2007
hey i read 3 of the longer stories you wrote they are realy good so please update soon
p.s. read your profile my cousin says he loves cats ;)
| Lord Makura chapter 27 . 12/19/2006
question what are they doing to legolas that your not telling us, to stop his fit..
| fan24601 chapter 30 . 3/19/2006
Heya, this story absolutely rocked!
It had quite a few grammatical and spelling mistakes though. But i could tell there were less and less as the story went on.
I love the realism of it all! Glad Thranduil didn't turn up immediately after Elrond notified him. It made it all the more realistic. I also love how the twins and Estel were not there for Legolas the minute he reached Rivendell - it was a minor detail but that made it different from almost 99% of the stories dealing with Legolas being injured! Plus I thought that not revealing who the rider was in the first chapter was very intriguing. More so because the rider was described as having brown hair (and great that you didn't forget to explain why).
Fantastic storyline. Roller Coaster ride indeed - although i thought the idea of Legolas having seizures was a tad bit overused. I thought using the idea of the chess games to lighten the mood of the story was a nice idea too!
Looking forward to reading your sequel! Which i think i'll do now... *grinz*
| memyselfandi chapter 30 . 2/8/2006
OH. That was good. I did notice something that I found amusing, several time you said 'rollar coaster'. I wasn't aware that they had rollar coasters in Middle Earth*looks puzzeled* lol. You're evil(as if you didn't know that). There was way too much left unfinished here. I really hope the sequel, or whatever, is finished*leans forward and says in a secretive manner* Between you and me, I really hate waiting for updates.
| Elvin BlueEyes chapter 30 . 10/6/2005
i thought this was an awsome srory. Very good job on it.

Mr. Speaker, the throne speech stated that our diversity was a source of strength and creativity.
The government overlooked an experienced and qualified black judge in Her Honour Judge Corrine Sparks during a recent appointment in Nova Scotia. The government has fanned the flames of racism with its inept handling of the Nova Scotia fisheries dispute. The government has failed miserably to promote visible minorities within the federal public service.
What is the government doing to address racial inequities both in its own policies and racism within the ranks of hiring of the public service?

- How much is a Guide Dog?
As long as you have a guide dog provided by Guide Dogs Association Turkey (which is up to 8 or 10 years of age if there is not extraordinary circumstances) food, vets and even toys are provided by us.
- What does a Guide Dog Do Exactly?
A guide dog takes you from point A to point B; on determined routes to places you go most frequently. E.g. Home to Work, Home to the Shop etc.
Stops at all kerbs, stairs going up and down, also stops when there is an obstacle in front of you.
It is important to mention that a guide dog is not responsible of knowing where you are. That is always the job of the guide dog owner. But our Guide Dog and Mobility Instructor does teach you how to count your step, helps you with tips such as finding your direction according to sunlight, and listening to traffic before you cross a road.
- What happens when I go out of my routes?
The dog does not know where you are this is your responsibility, but it will still stop at kerbs, stairs and when there is an obstacle in front of you and guides your as it is conditioned to do so.
But the most important thing that needs to be remembered on a new route is that a guide dog is a living being and not a robot so it can be distracted easier.
- How do I deal with stray dogs?
Guide dogs are raised to not be a threat or have a body language that would be threatening to other dogs. So usually stray dogs in Turkey will leave you alone once they realise the guide dog is not a threat to its territory.
Although as a precaution we will provide you with a tool (Dazer II) that is designed to get rid of dogs around you with a high pitched frequency that humans cannot hear. It does not cause pain or hurt other dogs in any way just makes them uncomfortable.
Your own dog will not be affected since house pets are raised in environments that have these high-pitched frequencies such as a microwave in the house, so they are used to it and are not bothered by it.
Another solution we have is that if your daily used routes go through stay dog territories that can be a danger to your dog is changing your route in order to keep you and your dog safe.
- Where does the guide dog live?
It has to live indoors with you and be treated as part of your family in order to do its job to its full potential. We do not accept balconies or gardens for the dogs living quarters.
So clients have to speak to their landlords in order to be eligible for a guide dog.
- How do they act in public transport?
Firstly, there is a law waiting to pass in the parliament, it states that dogs will be allowed on all public transport and to cafes etc.
When you board a train or a bus your dog will lay under your feet and not move. They are trained to do so.
- Stages of Training?
A guide dogs training starts when it is about 2 months when it is given to a puppy walker family. Here they learn basic commands – sit, stay, down etc. They also learn to to behave in different environments and become a member of society.
The second stage of training begins when the puppies mature to 1 year olds. They are taken from families and moved to kennels. First they are assessed for 3 weeks to see if they are fit characters to becoming guide dogs. If they are fit than the training commences which take up to 5 months. Within this training there is stopping at kerbs, learning what moving traffic is, walking according to obstacles on the pavement and other different concepts.
In all starges of there training, our dogs’ characters are assessed in order to fit them with the right client in the end of training.
The last stage of training is with the visually impaired client where they come to ankara for 1 or 2 weeks and live with the guide dog. They learn basic commands and how to drive the dog as well as how to look after the dog. The last week which is the 3rd week, the guide dog and mobility trainer go to the clients home and teach the dog their most frequently used routes.
- Which breeds are used?
At Guide Dogs Association Turkey we use Golden Retriever and Labrador Retrievers. The reason behind this is;
- They are well natured and willing to work.
- They have a medium range size fit for human beings.
- They are double coated which makes them adaptable to different climates (hot and cold)
- How will I manage toileting the dog and walking the dog?
Our trainers will teach you how to do this. You mainly stand still and with leashes that are up to 10 meters long the dog can sniff, walk and toilet in a green grass area.
(You will have to pick up after your guide dog. You can tell what the dog is doing from its body positioning.)
- What is an Assessment?
Assessments are for us to decided if you can have a dog or not. They are questions we ask you to determine this. Other than that we look at your balance, orientation etc. in order to find you the right guide dog.
We see your living quarters, we ask you if you got a dog where would you keep it, did you speak to your landlord, what exactly is your visual impairment condition.
The best thing you can do before we come to visit you in your home is decide why you would like to own a guide dog.
- What is matching to a guide dog mean?
Matching is a process from begining of a training till the end of it. The clients are always in the back of our trainers minds in order to match them with the right dog according to their characters, sizes and the dogs characters.
It is very important to give the right dog to the right person for the dog to fulfill its full potential. We consider everything from the clients tone of voice, to the area they live and even their speed.
- What is a puppy walker family?
A puppy walker is someone who looks after the puppy from about six weeks of age until they are one year old and ready for advanced guide dog training. Once they reach the age of one they are taken from the puppy walker.
The aim of a puppy walker family is to have a puppy that is socialised well with people and all aspects of daily life, who is also friendly and well behaved. It is crucial for the puppy walker to always be with the dog, take it to where ever they go on a leash and making sure it is at ease in all environments and also for it to be exposed to town or city conditions, other animals and traffic/cars etc. Of course our trainers will advise in each step and give exercises to do for the puppy walkers.
- Puppy Walker Criteria?
It is very important for each individual of a family to act exactly the same towards the puppy and follow the rules given below:
- The puppy should not be left alone for more than 3 to 4 hours each day.
- The puppy cannot live outdors or on a balcony. It has to live indoors with the family.
- It need to have a routine walking schedule and get taken out at least 3 times a day.
- The puppy should not be allowed to play fetch as it can turn into obsessive compulsive behaviours.
- The puppy should not be allowed to go onto furniture.
- The puppy should not be fed anything other than its own dry food.
- People under the age of 18 cannot be puppy walkers.
- Puppy walker families may have other dogs considering they are well socialised with other pets.
- Most importantly the puppies must be raised with love and care.
- Important things to Note:
If you as a client live with your family, you must remember they are not the ones who go through training which means a guide dog will be your responsibility and yours only. You are responsible of feeding, toileting and grooming. This may be enough reason for us to give you a written warning if you are not being responsible of your guide dog.
Our trainers will teach you how to look after your god, feed and groom it.
If you are working you are required to talk to your workplace and boss and get their permission to be able to bring your dog into work with you. Because guide dogs are not to be left alone and are trained to be with you at all times.

In 1968, a Canadian Rock group, The Guess Who, released one of the biggest hits of their career.
These Eyes feature the writing of Randy Bachman and the voice of Burton Cummings. This was a re-release in the album Wheatfield Soul. The original had another Canadian talent, Gordon Lightfoot as a back up singer. These Eyes was the first single by The Guess Who to make it to the Top Ten in the U.S.
A big fan of all but one song from this group—I’ll let those who know their discography work that out—the album Wheatfield Soul, in my opinion, was their best.
I hope you agree that These Eyes is one amazing song.

2017/18 WORLD SENIORS SNOOKER TOUR – SEASONAL REVIEW
From China to the Crucible, the inaugural World Seniors Snooker Tour has visited clubs and famous arenas in the UK and beyond.
Building on from the success of the popular Snooker Legends series and the re-invention of the World Seniors Championship, entrepreneur Jason Francis and his team expanded the seniors palette this season by adding three further major titles. The concept has gained momentum and approval, even being recognised by the sport’s governing body, the WPBSA, as opportunities and dreams have been realised for all amateur players aged 40 or above.
The opening major of the season in October saw Jimmy White capture the UK Seniors Championship at the The Harlequin Theatre in Redhill; a quarter of a century on from winning the professional version.
White defeated Ken Doherty 4-2 in the final after overcoming amateur qualifiers Les Dodd and then Jonathan Bagley in the Quarter and Semi-Finals. During the event Doherty compiled a break of 137.
One of the most iconic venues in snooker history is Goffs – synonymous with professional snooker in Ireland. It got a chance to stage a big competitive event again with the creation of the Irish Seniors Masters in January.
There was also a return to the competitive fold for Steve Davis, who was a replacement for Stephen Hendry. The Nugget made the most of his cameo by eliminating Dennis Taylor, John Parrott and then qualifier Bagley 4-0 in the final.
The main event of the season was the expanded World Seniors Championship that again was open to any amateur player aged 40 or above.
Evolving the tournament and making it even more inclusive, there were eight opportunities for players to feature at the main stage via various club qualifiers and join the invited legends at the Baths Hall – double the amount from 2017. As well as domestic qualifiers, there was also a ground-breaking event staged in China – proof that the tour is thinking internationally.
16 players would remain in Scunthorpe. Much talk revolved around Hendry and his chances of claiming the title and a subsequent berth at Crucible qualifying afterwards, but it was the less talked about Aaron Canavan – a car restorer from Jersey, who ‘Dared to Dream’ and walked off with £10,000.
Canavan held his nerve in the final against former World Professional Championship Quarter-Finalist Patrick Wallace by slotting home the Tie-Breaker Black Ball to win 4-3, having been 3-1 down.
It didn’t work out for Canavan at the EIS earlier this week, but he can feast out on being a reigning World Champion for a good while yet.
The last major of the campaign was the one-day spectacular held at the Crucible on Thursday. The Seniors Masters saw 70 year old Cliff Thorburn roll back the years and lift the John Spencer Trophy aloft after a Tie-Breaker Black Ball victory over Bagley in the final.
Despite not securing one of the four major trophies, in some ways, Leeds taxi-driver Bagley was the player of the season because of his sheer consistency throughout.
Including the World Seniors in 2017, Bagley has qualified for every venue so far and finishes the tour as the Number 1 ranked amateur. Whilst it was terrific seeing Thorburn so joyous at winning the Masters, a trophy for Bagley would have been richly deserved given his efforts over the last few months. Of the five majors so far, he has made two finals and three semi-finals.
Hendry’s form in these events has also been a notable talking point having failed to make a final in the three legs he participated in. In fact, his only victory was a 3-0 defeat of Tony Knowles at Redhill. It is maybe a wake up call for the seven-times World Champion if he wants to be successful on the tour next season.
Talking of next season, the World Seniors Tour appears to be evolving again with qualifiers potentially being held in the USA and Australia. Considering it will be just its second full season, so much has been achieved in such a small space of time.
Although the quartet of major champions has now been confirmed, the Top 16 ranked amateurs from this season will compete at a special knock-out competition in a few weeks time. Bagley will be the top seed.

Cell-based strategies represent a new frontier in the treatment of immune-mediated disorders. However, the paucity of markers for isolation of molecularly defined immunomodulatory cell populations poses a barrier to this field. Here, we show that ATP-binding cassette member B5 (ABCB5) identifies dermal immunoregulatory cells (DIRCs) capable of exerting therapeutic immunoregulatory functions through engagement of programmed cell death 1 (PD-1). Purified Abcb5+ DIRCs suppressed T cell proliferation, evaded immune rejection, homed to recipient immune tissues, and induced Tregs in vivo. In fully major-histocompatibility-complex-mismatched cardiac allotransplantation models, allogeneic DIRCs significantly prolonged allograft survival. Blockade of DIRC-expressed PD-1 reversed the inhibitory effects of DIRCs on T cell activation, inhibited DIRC-dependent Treg induction, and attenuated DIRC-induced prolongation of cardiac allograft survival, indicating that DIRC immunoregulatory function is mediated, at least in part, through PD-1. Our results identify ABCB5+ DIRCs as a distinct immunoregulatory cell population and suggest promising roles of this expandable cell subset in cellular immunotherapy. Schatton et al. identify ABCB5 as a marker of dermal cells in mammalian skin that possess immunoregulatory functions, through engagement of the immune checkpoint molecule PD-1. ABCB5-positive cells, when administered to recipients of heart transplants in preclinical models, prolong graft survival, suggesting promising roles of this cell subset in cellular immunotherapy.

[RARE FIRST AND CENSORED TURKISH EDITION OF "LOLITA" IN ITS RARE DJ] Lolita. [= Lolita, or the confessions of a white widowed male]. Translated by Leylâ Niven.
VLADIMIR [VLADIMIROVICH] NABOKOV, (1899-1977).
Aydin Yayinevi, Ist., 1959.
Paperback. Dust jacket. Large roy. 8vo. (25 x 18 cm). In Turkish. 255 p. Lolita. [= Lolita, or the confessions of a white widowed male]. Translated by Leylâ Niven. Extremely rare first and banned Turkish Edition of 'Lolita' by Nabokov. In a book (Re-Covered Rose: A Case Study in Book Cover Design As Intersemiotic Translation) that discusses the cover image of this book: "The first distinctive aspect of this full-color, the poster-like cover is the surprising omission of the author's name (even assuming that the title had already achieved notoriety). The second distinctive aspect is, of course, the image of the girl. The white skin, blond hair, blue eyes, as well as a partially revealing outfit clearly distinguish her from a Turkish woman of the time. when this cover is clearly and indisputably 'wrong' is that the female is a grown-up woman, not a twelve-year-old girl. This is the most crucial piece of information in the book. So much so that Nabokov himself, laughing sarcastically at the Turkish cover, turns to the cameramen and asks: 'who is older?'.". This rare first edition was censored in Turkey when it's published. Extremely rare. Only two copies in just Turkish libraries in OCLC, not in US libraries. OCLC 1030072054. First Edition.

Boat packed with holiday revellers sinks off Hong Kong; at least 36 dead
The boat was carrying about 120 people when the accident happened near Lamma Island, off the southwestern coast of Hong Kong Island.

HONG KONG—A boat packed with holiday revellers collided with a ferry and sank off Hong Kong, killing 36 people and injuring dozens more, authorities said.
The boat was carrying staff members of a utility company and their family members to Hong Kong’s famed Victoria Harbour to watch a fireworks display Monday night on the long holiday weekend celebrating China’s National Day and mid-autumn festival.
It was carrying about 120 people when it collided with the ferry near Lamma Island off the southwestern coast of Hong Kong Island. The government said 36 bodies had been recovered by Tuesday morning and the search was continuing.
More than 100 people were rescued and sent to hospitals, and nine had serious or critical injuries, the government’s statement said.
After daybreak, the boat was half submerged with its bow pointing almost straight up. A barge was tied alongside it, apparently to stabilize the sunken boat and keep it from tipping further.
The government statement said low visibility and obstacles on the boat were making rescue efforts difficult. It said the possibility people were still in the vessel or missing could not be ruled out, though it did not give numbers.
“There was a boat that came in close and crashed,” said Yuen Sui-see, director of operations at Power Assets Holdings Ltd., which was using the vessel to take staff on the outing. “After the crash, the other boat continued away, it didn’t stop.”
He denied the vessel was overloaded, saying it was carrying 121 passengers and three crew but had capacity for more than 200 passengers.
The government statement said the Fire Services Department could not rule out the possibility people were still in the vessel or missing. It said low visibility and obstacles on the boat made rescue efforts difficult.
Local news reports said the boat was hit by a ferry operated by the Hong Kong and Kowloon Ferry company on a regularly scheduled service. RTHK said the captain of the other ship, which was slightly damaged but able to return to port, was afraid to stop in case it sank, too.
“All of Hong Kong’s emergency forces are focused here,” said Hong Kong’s leader, Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying. “Wide-ranging rescue work is being carried out on in the sea, land and in the air.”
Leung said he didn’t know what caused the collision but promised a thorough investigation.
Survivors said the boat started sinking rapidly after the collision. One woman told local television that she swallowed a lot of water as she swam back to shore. Another man said he didn’t know where his children were. Neither gave their names.
Lamma is the third biggest island in Hong Kong and near one of the coastal Chinese city’s busiest shipping lanes. The island is home to about 6,000 people, including many of the former British colony’s expatriate workers.

If you ask yourself what the biggest threat to human existence is you'd probably think of nuclear war, global warming or a large-scale pandemic disease.
But assuming we can overcome such challenges, are we really safe?
Living on our blue little planet seems safe until you are aware of what lurks in space.

Researcher discusses 6 cosmic catastrophes that have the potential to wipe out the Earth. Daniel Brown explains that although some are deadly events, others would just cause other issues like loss of electricity and internet
1. High energy solar flare
2. Asteroid impact
3. Expanding sun
4. Local gamma ray burst
5. Nearby supernovas
6. Moving stars
The following cosmic disasters are just a few ways humanity could be severely endangered or even wiped out. Happy reading!
1. High energy solar flare
Our sun is not as peaceful a star as one might initially think.
It creates strong magnetic fields that generate impressive sun spots, sometimes many times larger than Earth.
It also ejects a stream of particles and radiation – the solar wind.
If kept in check by Earth's magnetic field, this wind can cause beautiful northern and southern lights.
But when it becomes stronger, it can also influence radio communication or cause power outages.
The most powerful magnetic solar storm documented hit Earth in 1859.
The incident, called the Carrington Event, caused huge interference with rather small scale electronic equipment.
Such events must have happened several times in the past, too, with humans surviving.
If solar flares were to hit Earth there wouldn't be electricity, heating, air conditioning, GPS or internet – food and medicines would go bad
SOLAR FLAMES COULD KNOCKOUT POWER IN US
Last year, the government published a report outlining what needs to be done to prepare for 'space weather' including solar flares and CMES.
Solar flares and coronal mass ejections both involve gigantic explosions of energy, but while flares can last minutes to hours and can reach Earth in a matter of minutes, CMES are intense clouds of magnetised particles hurled into space including a hot material called plasma, which takes up to three days to reach Earth.
The two phenomena can occur at the same time and the strongest flares are almost always accompanied by CMEs.
The report states: 'Space weather results from solar activity. Solar activity can produce X-rays, high energy particles and Coronal Mass Ejections of plasma.
'Where such activity is directed towards Earth there is the potential to cause wide-ranging impacts.
'These include power loss, aviation disruption, communication loss, and disturbance to (or loss) of satellite systems.'
For example, GPS systems could go down for up to three days at a time, leaving train networks and shipping badly affected.
While mobile phones and landlines are expected to be unaffected, satellite communication and high frequency radio communication used by shipping and aircraft, could also go down for several days.
Power grids could also be affected, leading to black outs in some areas.
But only in recent years have we become entirely dependent on electronic equipment.
The truth is we would suffer greatly if we underestimate the dangers of a possible Carrington or even more powerful event.
Even though this would not wipe out humanity instantly, it would represent an immense challenge.
There would be no electricity, heating, air conditioning, GPS or internet – food and medicines would go bad.
2. Asteroid impact
We are now well aware of the dangers asteroids could pose to humanity – they are, after all, thought to have contributed to the extinction of the dinosaurs.
Recent research has made us aware of the large host of space rocks in our solar system that could pose danger.
REDIRECT MISSION COULD SAVE EARTH FROM AN ASTEROID
Various techniques for deflecting a potentially hazardous asteroid could be tested on Arm to enable planetary defense capabilities.
These techniques include Ion Beam Deflection, Enhanced Gravity Tractor, and kinetic impactors.
In Ion Beam Deflection, the plumes from the thrusters would be directed towards the asteroid to gently push on its surface over a wide area. A thruster firing in the opposite direction would be needed to keep the spacecraft at a constant distance from the asteroid.
The Ion Beam Deflection approach is independent of the size of the asteroid, and it could be demonstrated on either mission option.
In the Enhanced Gravity Tractor approach, the spacecraft would first pick up a boulder from the asteroid's surface as in mission Option B.
The spacecraft with the collected boulder would then orbit in a circular halo around the asteroid's velocity vector.
The mass of the boulder coupled with the mass of the spacecraft would increase the gravitational attraction between the spacecraft and the asteroid.
By flying the spacecraft in close formation with the asteroid for several months the very small gravitational forces would produce a measurable change in the asteroid's trajectory.
A kinetic impactor could also be launched as a secondary payload with the spacecraft or on a separate launch vehicle, and it would collide with the target asteroid at high velocity while the spacecraft observed the impact.
We are at the starting point of envisaging and developing systems for protecting us against some of the smaller asteroids that could strike us.
But against the bigger and rarer ones we are quite helpless.
While they would not always destroy Earth or even make it uninhabitable, they could wipe out humanity by causing enormous tsunamis, fires and other natural disasters.

3. Expanding sun
Where the previous cosmic dangers occur at the roll of a dice with a given probability, we know for certain that our sun will end its life in 7.72 billion years.
At this point, it will throw off its outer atmosphere to form a planetary nebula, ending up as a stellar remnant know as a 'white dwarf'.
THE SUN IS EXPANDING
Five billion years from now, the sun will have grown into a red giant star, more than a hundred times larger than its current size.
While this metamorphosis into the giant star will change the solar system, scientists are unsure what will happen to the third rock from the sun.
We already know that our sun will be bigger and brighter, so that it will probably destroy any form of life on our planet.
But whether the Earth's rocky core will survive is uncertain.
At the end of its evolution, seven billion years from now, the sun will become a tiny white dwarf star.
As the sun becomes older, it will become cooler and larger. As a result, in about 7.59 billion years, our planet will spiral into the outer layers of the hugely expanded dying star and melt away forever
But humanity will not experience these final stages.
As the sun becomes older, it will become cooler and larger.
By the time it becomes a stellar giant it will be big enough to engulf both Mercury and Venus.
Earth might seem safe at this point, but the sun will also create an extremely strong solar wind that will slow down the Earth.
As a result, in about 7.59 billion years, our planet will spiral into the outer layers of the hugely expanded dying star and melt away forever.
4. Local gamma ray burst
Extremely powerful outbursts of energy called gamma ray bursts can be caused by binary star systems (two stars orbiting a common centre) and supernovas (exploding stars).
Radiation from a gamma ray could damage and destroy our ozone layer, leaving life vulnerable to the sun's harsh UV radiation
These energy bursts are extremely powerful because they focus their energy into a narrow beam lasting no longer than seconds or minutes.
The resulting radiation from one could damage and destroy our ozone layer, leaving life vulnerable to the sun's harsh UV radiation.
HOW GAMMA RAYS CAN KILL US
On Earth we are shielded from most gamma rays in space by our ozone. But gamma-ray bursts, on the other hand, are much more powerful.
A gamma ray burst is the equivalent of taking all the stars within a hundred million light years and focusing it into one kind of energetic 'laser beam'.
But even a more distant GRB could still end life on Earth and it wouldn't need to score a head-shot to kill us.
If originating from a few thousand light years away, it would be a hundred light years wide by the time it reaches us, washing over the solar system like a tidal wave.
Our ozone would not be strong enough to protect us in this case.
Because gamma rays travel at the speed of light, we would have no warning of the attack until it hit us. By that point it would be too late, and most complex life on Earth would be dead.
Astronomers have discovered a star system – WR 104 – that could host such an event.
WR 104 is about 5,200-7,500 light years away, which is not far enough to be safe. And we can only guess when the burst will happen.
Luckily, there is the possibility that the beam could miss us entirely when it does.
5. Nearby supernovas
Supernova explosions, which take place when a star has reached the end of its life, occur on average once or twice every 100 years in our Milky Way.
They are more likely to occur closer to the dense centre of the Milky Way and we are about two-thirds of the way from the middle – not too bad.
So can we expect a nearby supernova anytime soon?
Astronomers have estimated that a supernova would need to be within at least 50 light years of us for its radiation to damage our ozone layer. So it seems this particular star shouldn't be too much of a concern. Picture is 70,000 light-years
WHAT IS A SUPERNOVA?
A supernova happens where there is a change in the core of a star.
The first type of supernova is in binary star systems when one of the two stars, a carbon-oxygen white dwarf, steals matter from its companion star.
Eventually, the white dwarf accumulates too much matter, causing the star to explode, resulting in a supernova.
The second type of supernova occurs at the end of a single star’s lifetime.
As the star runs out of nuclear fuel, some of its mass flows into its core.
Eventually, the core is so heavy it can't stand its own gravitational force and the core collapses, resulting in another giant explosion.
The star Betelgeuse – a red super giant nearing the end of its life – in the constellation of Orion is just 460-650 light years away.
It could become a supernova now or in the next million years.
Luckily, astronomers have estimated that a supernova would need to be within at least 50 light years of us for its radiation to damage our ozone layer.
So it seems this particular star shouldn't be too much of a concern.
6. Moving stars
Meanwhile, a wandering star on its path through the Milky Way might come so close to our sun that it would interact with the rocky 'Oort cloud' at the edge of the solar system, which is the source of our comets.
This might lead to an increased chance of a huge comet hurtling to Earth.
Another roll of the dice.
The sun itself follows a path through the Milky Way that takes us through more or less dense patches of interstellar gas.
A wandering star on its path through the Milky Way (pictured) might come so close to our sun that it would interact with the rocky 'Oort cloud' at the edge of the solar system, which is the source of our comets. This might lead to an increased chance of a huge comet hurtling to Earth
Currently we are within a less dense bubble created by a supernova.
The sun's wind and solar magnetic field help create a bubble-like region surrounding our solar system – the heliosphere – which shields us from interacting with the interstellar medium.
When we leave this region in 20,000 to 50,000 years (depending on current observations and models), our heliosphere could be less effective, exposing Earth. We would possibly encounter increased climate change making life more challenging for humanity – if not impossible.
The end of humanity on Earth is a given.
HUMANS WILL NOT SURVIVE ANOTHER 1,000 YEARS ON EARTH
Humans will not survive another 1,000 years on 'fragile' Earth, according to Professor Stephen Hawking. He said: 'Perhaps one day we will be able to use gravitational waves to look back into the heart of the Big Bang.
'Most recent advances in cosmology have been achieved from space where there are uninterrupted views of our Universe but we must also continue to go into space for the future of humanity.
'I don't think we will survive another 1,000 years without escaping our fragile planet.'
Hawking, who has said he wanted to go into space on Virgin boss Richard Branson's Ride Virgin Atlantic spaceship, continued: 'I therefore want to encourage public interest in space, and I have been getting my training in early.'
Professor Hawking added: 'It has been a glorious time to be alive and doing research in theoretical physics.
'Our picture of the universe has changed a great deal in the last 50 years and I am happy if I have made a small contribution.
'The fact that we humans who are ourselves mere collections of fundamental particles of nature have been able to come so close to understanding the laws that are governing us and our universe is a great achievement.'
Professor Hawking has previously described his views on the future of space travel, in the afterword of the book, 'How to Make a Spaceship.'
He said: 'I believe that life on Earth is at an ever-increasing risk of being wiped out by a disaster, such as a sudden nuclear war, a genetically engineered virus, or other dangers,' he said.
'I think the human race has no future if it doesn't go to space.'
But this is not something to make us crawl under a table.
It is something that we cannot change, similar to our lives having a definite start and end.
This is what defines us and makes us realise that the only thing we can do is make the most of our time on Earth.
Especially when we know that Earth needs a careful balance to sustain humanity.
All the above scenarios harbour possible destruction, but in every instance they also offer beauty and wonder.
In many cases, they produce what allowed us to be created.
So rather than looking into the night sky and wondering what will kill us next, we should marvel at the depth of space, the wonders therein and the sublime nature of the universe.
Be inspired by space. It offers future and meaning.

South Africa vs Australia, The Rugby Championship 2019 – Preview, Prediction, Match Details and Live Streaming
The World Cup countdown begins for South Africa and Australia as they conflict in the Rugby Championship 2019 on Saturday. South Africa and Australia increase their World Cup preparations when they meet in their opening game of the abbreviated the Rugby Championship 2019 season at Ellis Park on Saturday, for which the two sides have made surprise selections.
South Africa vs Australia Team News
South Africa came out on top when these two sides met last September when they beat Australia 23-12 with three Handre Pollard penalties the difference.
Harmed Springboks captain Siya Kolisi will miss out this tie with Australia as he is breast fed back gradually in view of the World Cup so Eben Elizabeth will captain the side in Kolisi’s nonattendance.
There are two uncapped players in the side as Rynhardt Elstadt and Herschel Jantjies and they will plan to highlight while Lizo Gqoboka will seek after his first taste of international action.
Australia have lost four of their last six international matches with two away successes over Argentina and Italy last Autumn to talk about so their expectations are not as high as they will have been in years passed by.
David Pocock has travelled with the Australia squad to Johannesburg to train however he won’t highlight here as he recuperates from injury.
In view of the World Cup, The Aussies have selected an experimental side and that ought to support some furious competition among the fringe players as they hope to establish a major impression and book their ticket to Japan later in the year.
South Africa vs Australia Match Prediction
Since 2012, South Africa have won this fixture six times to Australia’s five with two draws. While their last six results propose South Africa are more in form, neither one of the sides has played aggressively this year and in spite of the fact that the Springboks are feeling the loss of their compelling leader, they ought to have enough here in a fight between two debilitated sides.

Shailene Woodley’s career is really taking off now that her ABC Family series “The Secret Life of the American Teenager” has come to an end. She’s in talks to star in hot Young Adult novel adaptation “Divergent,” set in a futuristic society where humanity has split into five factions based on virtues: the honest, the selfless, the brave, the peaceful and the intelligent.
Deadline reports Woodley would play a young woman who reaches the age of initiation into one of those factions and faces unexpected fallout with her family and a new love interest in the process. If that sounds suspiciously similar to “The Hunger Games,” it’s worth noting that Woodley was one of the actresses in contention to play Katniss Everdeen, and we doubt she’d sign on for a simple ripoff.
“Divergent” will be directed by Neil Burger (“Limitless”) and written by Evan Daugherty (“Snow White and the Huntsman”) based on the book by Veronica Roth.
Woodley recently received a Golden Globe nomination for her acclaimed performance as George Clooney’s daughter in “The Descendants” and is also in talks to play Mary Jane opposite Andrew Garfield in the sequel to “The Amazing Spider-Man.”

The Miami Heat were already in trouble in Game 5 of their NBA Conference Semifinals series against the Chicago Bulls, and for a moment, it looked like things had taken a turn for the worse. Star guard Dwyane Wade, who had struggled all night, headed to the locker room in the third quarter, possibly with an injury. He has since returned to the game.
Wade's status for Game 5 was unclear until shortly before the game, when the guard confirmed he would play. He had been suffering from soreness in his right knee, receiving treatment for bone bruises for the last two months, and seemed to aggravated the injury in Miami's Game 4 win on Monday. Through three quarters on Wednesday, Wade had 12 points and six assists, but he did not seem like himself.
Miami and Chicago are currently in a close one midway through the fourth quarter.

With all the recent discussions about hell — from Rob Bell’s implied universalism in Love Wins to Francis Chan’s response in Erasing Hell — I’ve found myself thinking a lot about the subject. Like most normal people, the concept of eternal suffering is awful to contemplate, both from a physical and moral standpoint. I mean, does 70 or 80 years of immoral living on earth demand a gazillion-plus years of writhing in non-stop agony?
Before you hit the heresy button, I’m a traditionalist regarding the subject, believing that hell is (1) a real place, that (2) involves suffering of some sort, which (3) goes on forever. Nevertheless, I’ve struggled immensely with the concept.
So lately I’ve been researching Annihilationism. Simply put, the Annihilationist believes that immortality is conditional. That only souls that believe, Live; the rest are destroyed. Annihilationism has a long history and is not exclusive to theological fringes. Several early church fathers floated the concept, as well as some significant others. From Wikipedia:
Some well respected authors have remained neutral. F. F. Bruce wrote, “annihilation is certainly an acceptable interpretation of the relevant New Testament passages … For myself, I remain agnostic. Eternal conscious torment is incompatible with the revealed character of God.” Comparatively, C. S. Lewis did not systematize his own views. He rejected traditional pictures of the “tortures” of hell, as in The Great Divorce where he pictured it as a drab “grey town”. Yet in The Problem of Pain, “Lewis sounds much like an annihilationist.” He wrote:
- “But I notice that Our Lord, while stressing the terror of hell with unsparing severity usually emphasises the idea not of duration but of finality. Consignment to the destroying fire is usually treated as the end of the story—not as the beginning of a new story. That the lost soul is eternally fixed in its diabolical attitude we cannot doubt: but whether this eternal fixity implies endless duration—or duration at all—we cannot say.”
An important addition to this list is N. T. Wright, popular author and theologian, who rejects eternal torment, universalism, and apparently also annihilation; believing instead that those who reject God will become “dehumanized,” and no longer be in the image of God.
All that to say, Annihilationism is not as fringy as I once thought.
But there’s a single reason I do not seriously consider Annihilationism. It’s this:
Annihilationism does not seem to provoke eternal urgency.
And Jesus oozed eternal urgency.
When the Bible speaks of hell it’s always with a grim, relentless tone. You do not want to go here. And if the Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus is any indication, if you did go there, you would want to rush back and beg your family to avoid that place at all costs. Annihilation doesn’t seem to have such a compulsion. I mean, if the worse that’s going to happen to me is that I’m going to… disappear, why not eat, drink, and be merry?
If the punishment for not surrendering to my Maker is that I’ll just be erased, then why not live the way I want? Sure, eternal life might be better. But if I’m not around to even know the difference, who cares?
What do you think: Does Annihilationism really provoke eternal urgency?

8 Tax-Saving Tips for Small Companies
Individual taxes can be complicated. Business taxes can be much more hard. If you possess a local business, tax time can be tough. The source of income of any business goes to the very least partly depending on its ability to decrease its tax obligation liability, while meeting the demands of the IRS.
While tax obligations are seldom pleasurable or interesting topic, they belong of any kind of company owner’s life. Obtaining a manage your business tax obligations can increase your income and help you avoid legal concerns.
Have a look at these tax tips that are valuable for any small business:
1. Maintain your tax as well as monetary files for at least 7 years. If you’re ever examined, you’ll need those documents. Any kind of cases made at tax time need supporting documents. Keeping good documents is a superb suggestion for any small business due to the fact that it urges company. It is very challenging to rebuild documents at a later day.
2. Know your target dates. It isn’t all about April 15th. While most service entities can wait up until “tax obligation day,” C-corporations are called for to file within 10 weeks after the ends, which is generally December 31st.
3. Comprehend your car loans. The Internal Revenue Service does not identify most business financings as earnings. However the interest paid on financings is usually an insurance deductible expenditure. It is essential to have records concerning making use of any type of fundings. It may be for tools or to finance some other activity.
4. Know the various types of audits. There are a number of sorts of audits and also some are more challenging than others.
* Office audit: Typically this is a straightforward audit. You’ll be asked for to report to your regional Internal Revenue Service office to solve some disparity.
* Correspondence audit: You’ll simply be asked to send out in a file by means of mail or fax.
* Field audit: These tend to be extremely thorough audits and they are carried out at your workplace.
* Lawbreaker investigation audit: Consult your legal representative. You’re thought of tax obligation evasion.
5. Pay your quarterly tax expense. This is a typical mistake. If you have an employer, your taxes are consistently gotten of your paycheck. If you’re self-employed, you’re needed to estimate your tax each quarter as well as pay it. Failure to pay this can lead to a significant tax penalty.
* You could also wind up with a bigger tax expense than you can manage in a solitary settlement. Make a habit of reserving a portion of your earnings each month in anticipation of paying your quarterly tax obligations.
6. Prepare early. The large variety of tax obligation filers wait till the last minute. If you’re anticipating a refund, this can be the most awful time to submit. The IRS is bewildered with all the income tax return that gather. However, this can also be the best time to prevent an audit. Preparing your tax return early leaves you time to discover any kind of missing files and also address any concerns.
7. Get assistance. Relying on the complexity of your company’s finances, working with a specialist to prepare your tax return could be a good concept. In theory, the cash you invest ought to result in a smaller sized tax obligation burden. It’s likewise practical if any kind of legal issues arise.
8. Avoid utilizing tax obligations gathered from staff member pay-roll to pay overhead. This common technique distress the Internal Revenue Service greatly. When you withhold tax obligations, send them to the Internal Revenue Service!
Taxes are a big expenditure for any organization that reveals a profit. It just makes good sense to decrease that expenditure. Seek advice from a tax specialist if you have any questions or problems regarding your service’s tax obligation situation.

See you tonight: Downtown Live! returns, and no one should miss it
By Longview News-Journal
Oct. 4, 2012 at 11 p.m.
Welcome back, Downtown Live! We're happy to see you again.
Downtown Live!, the Friday evening concert series that achieved great success with its premiere run this past spring at Heritage Plaza, tonight is kicking off its fall season of four shows. It's free, the weather promises to be beautiful, and we can't imagine why anyone would intentionally miss the great event. You can hear local music, shop the wares of area vendors and, most importantly, mingle with neighbors.
With a Downtown Market opening at 4 p.m. and live music beginning at 5 p.m., this past spring's events drew several hundred people each Friday to the multi-generational outings.
We saw children having a ball coloring with chalk on the vast canvas of the plaza's pavement, adults chatting while sipping beer and wine, and couples dancing.
Most importantly, we saw our neighbors coming together in a downtown that increasingly feels like Longview's front porch, or its living room. Downtown truly is the heart of our great city, and events like Downtown Live! are an important part in the continuing rebirth of the historic central business district.
Once again, we applaud the One Hundred Acres of Heritage Main Street Advisory Board, Longview Chamber of Commerce, city of Longview, the sponsors and others who have worked to bring us this great series.
The News-Journal's weekly @play entertainment section is the sole print sponsor for Downtown Live!, and you'll find plenty of copies of the publication and other giveaways under the @play banner at the plaza. Inside this week's edition of @play, you can find the four-week schedule and meet Westbound 21, the band we'll be enjoying tonight.
So, come on downtown and join your neighbors in what we like to think of as as our city's collective sigh of relaxation at the end of the workweek.
See you tonight.

Won't your special someone be surprised when you give them this for Valentine's Day? Of course, you could also give it to them on your anniversary, or any other day just because.
This glittered red heart is ready to let your special someone know how you feel. Making this heart even more special, is that it has a pair of red glittered gams (legs). The words BE MINE are written in gold glitter alongside a gold glittered heart. Finally, a pair of gold glittered high heels were added to complete the look.
The heart comes attached to a flat bottom so as to make it easier to sit on a shelf, desk, or wherever your special someone wishes to keep it. You can even add flowers, candy or some other special surprise inside of the heart because it doubles as a box.
The heart also includes a hanging wire that is highlighted by a red glittered heart in the middle of it.
The heart measures about 5 inches tall by 6 inches wide by 3 inches deep. The legs add about 2 inches to the depth and 2 inches in height. The hanging wire adds about 4 inches to the height.

Each Village Plan describes:
[Click on your village in the map to see your local Village Plan]
At the end of 2010 Richmond Council sent every household the All in One survey, which asked about the priorities of residents in each local area. We asked what people liked about where they lived and what could be improved.
The Council followed this up with a series of village planning events across the borough – these events gave residents the chance to discuss local issues in more detail and find potential solutions, including how the Council and community could take things forward together.
As a result, the Council created 14 Village Plans.
The results of the All in One survey also showed that residents had a desire to shape planning policy for their local area. Therefore, it has now been agreed that within the Village Plans there will be a dedicated section that will provide residents and businesses with a straightforward and unbureacratic way of developing planning policy in their area.
In planning terms, this type of document is called an Supplementary Planning Document (SPD), and it can be taken into account in making planning decisions.
Rather than create these planning documents for each village at the same time, the Council has selected two villages – Kew and Whitton/Heathfield – to trial this new Village Planning process. Other villages across the borough will then move forward with their plans in 2014 and beyond, eventually covering the whole borough. Ham and Petersham are proceeding separately with a local Neighbourhood Plan for their area.
The Village Plans will continue to reflect wider community needs, aspirations and activities that the community, Council and partners will work together on to shape and deliver. This could include tackling isolated elderly, strengthening opportunities to get involved, improving green spaces or planning school places.
At the end of 2013, residents in Whitton/Heathfield and Kew worked with the Council to help shape the planning vision for their local area. Residents in both areas attended a series of public events and ‘walkabouts’ around their local area.
The events gave the Council an opportunity to hear resident thoughts on the local area, and their ideas on how best to protect and enhance its character, conservation areas, any site specific issues and how current Council policy impacts planning and development.
Following this, the Council would like your views on the Whitton / Heathfield and Kew draft Supplementary Planning Documents (SPDs).
An SPD provides a vision for a local area. It identifies key policies and helps to identify the ‘local character’ of the area and what features need to be retained. Once adopted, the SPD will help to maintain and enhance this local character. The SPD will establish key design principles for new development and will be taken into account by the Council when deciding on planning applications, both for new development and changes to existing buildings.
Two drop in sessions were held in March to provide the opportunity for people to come and view and discuss the Village Plan Review and SPD documents. In addition to this two Question Time-style events, one in each of the village planning pilot areas were held to give further opportunities for people to have their say. The feedback received will be considered alongside the feedback from the online consultation.
The consultation on the Whitton and Heathfield and Kew draft SPD closed on 7 April. The final documents will be available from July 2014.
To find out about other consultations going on in your local area or across the borough go the Council’s consultation finder. You will find details about forthcoming, current and past consultations carried out by the Council.

The Kandy Esala Perahera
The glittering Esala Perahera, which is 235 years old, is one of the grandest events we have in Sri Lanka. Many locals and foreigners look forward to witness this wonderful festival every year. This is held during the Esala month, in August, honouring the sacred tooth relic. Many foreigners who have been fascinated by the Perahera have written notes about it; among them is the famous British poet and novelist, D. H. Lawrence, who describes the Perahera as a "perpetual fire-laughing motion among the slow shuffle of elephants."
Fa-Hien, one of the famous Chinese monks who arrived in Sri Lanka on a pilgrimage in the fifth century A.D. also gives a full description about the Perahera in his book, Fa-Hien Travel Records. "By the side of the King's Palace is the Vihara of the Buddha's Tooth, several hundred feet high, brilliant with jewellers and ornamented with rare gems. Above the Vihara is placed an upright pole on which is fixed a great Padmaraja (ruby). The Tooth of the Buddha was always brought forth in the middle of the third month.
Ten days in advance, the king magnificently caparisoned a large elephant. A man dressed in royal robes on this elephant, who could speak distinctly, and the man went round it, beating a large drum, describing the life and the virtues of the Buddha, and announcing to the public; "Behold, ten days after this, Buddha's Tooth will be brought forth, and taken to the Abhayagiri Vihara. Let all, whether monks or laymen, who wish to amass merit for themselves, make the road smooth and in good condition, grandly adorn lanes and by-ways, and provide an abundant store of flowers and incense to be used as offerings to it."
When this announcement was over, the king placed for exhibition on both sides of the road, the 500 different bodily forms in which the Buddha had appeared in his previous births according to the Jataka stories. All their figures were brightly coloured and grandly executed, looking as if they were alive. After this, the Tooth of the Buddha was brought forth, and was carried along in the middle of the road. Everywhere on the way, offerings were presented to it, and thus it arrived at the hall of the Buddha in the Abhayagiri Vihara. There the monks and the laity gathered in crowds, burned incense, lighted lamps and performed all the prescribed services, day and night, without ceasing till 90 days had been completed until the Tooth was returned to the Vihara. On Poya Days, the doors of the Vihara were opened, and forms of ceremonial reverence were observed according to the rules.
Even during the Kandyan era between 1739 and 1815, the Esala Perahera was given much prominence. Four Devale Perahera, which was dedicated to the four guardian deities, Natha, Vishnu, Kataragama, and Pattini, was merged to the main Perahera during the Keerthi Sri Rajasingha Era.
The Perahera is held according to some rituals coming down from traditions. They are known as ‘Esala-keliya'. This festival begins with the installation of ‘kapa' in each Devale. According to the ritual, for five days after installation of kapa, the kapuralas of each devale take it around every evening in a procession, accompanied by music and drumming and along with flag and canopy bearers and spearmen, and the sacred emblem of the gods.' This is known as the Devale Perahera.
The Randoli Perahera begins on the 5th day. This is a lengthened version of the famous Kumbal Perahera. Palanquins of the four Devales which contains ornaments of the goddess, pitcher, and the sword are added to the Randoli Perahera. On the full moon day, this Perahera reassembles to go to Asgiriya temple, where the casket is placed. Then Devale Peraheras return to their Devales.
Again, in the night, the Devale Peraheras make their way to the water-cutting site at the Getambetota. At the river, the ‘kapuralas' of the devales, go in a decorated boat, to some distance in the river.
At this place, each ‘kapurala' slashes the water with the sacred sword and collects a pitcher full at the place where the sword touched the water. This water will be stored in their Devale for one year, and will be put back into the river, next year at a similar Ceremony.
After seven days from the day Perahara, the ‘Waliyak-netuma', a shortened form of ‘Kohomba-kankariya' is performed at the Vishnu devalaya, along with masked dancing. On the seventh day, the Esala festival will be declared as over. The people of the ‘balibat' caste, who are sorcerers and exorcists, were the dancers in the Perahera during the days of our kings. It was a form of ‘Rajakariya' (duty) to the king.
This time the Kandy Esala Perahera will be held in a grand style and will be a testament that Sri Lanka is ready for tourism after the peace!

The United States (US) Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) will investigate the near-miss incident involving an Allegiant Airlines Airbus A320 and a Gulfstream IV, which triggered the Traffic collision avoidance system or TCAS.
According to the FAA, the incident happened on July 23, 2023, when an Allegiant Airlines Airbus A320, registered as N229NV, was instructed to fly eastbound at 23,000 feet (7,010 meters) upon departure from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL). At the same time, a Gulfstream IV, registered as N86MS and belonging to Jet Edge, was flying 23,000 ft (7,010 m) northbound to its destination, Hilton Head Island Airport (HHH).
According to flightradar24.com, the two jets were “separated 2.59 miles laterally and 1,175 feet vertically”. The FAA said that both the Allegiant Airlines pilot and the pilot of the Gulfstream jet received a TCAS alert, subsequently taking evasive action.
An Allegiant Airlines flight attendant was injured during the incident, as the Airbus A320 climbed at a peak vertical speed of 1,664 feet per minute, according to flightradar24.com data. Consequently, the A320 was forced to return to FLL, where it landed without further incident. The FAA’s Aviation Safety Information Analysis and Sharing (ASIAS) platform said that the aircraft “declared a crew medical emergency”.
The Jet Edge Gulfstream IV also reached HHH without further incident. Both aircraft operated flights the same and following days.
On July 24, 2023, the same Allegiant Air Airbus A320 diverted to Indianapolis International Airport (IND) on flight G4511 from FLL to Cincinnati Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG). However, the FAA’s ASIAS has no registered incident on the day.

Very classy ambience in the heart of Southlake. The dining room is beautiful with soft moody music - a perfect place for a romantic dinner or to meet friends. The menu is itself sprawling, offering an endless variety of steaks, seafood and some vegetarian items. An array of side dishes completes the selections along with fresh breads. Also a very good wine selection and great cocktails. Of course the desserts are amazing as well!

AstraZeneca announced today that their FASLODEX 500mg product received its first regulatory approval in Japan.
FASLODEX 500mg is a breast cancer drug which had already gained regulatory approval in Europe in March, 2010 and in the United States one year ago in September, 2010. Regulatory approval for the products’ roll-out was approved after a Phase III CONFIRM study was completed.
In a company statement, Tony Zook, Executive Vice President of AstraZeneca’s Global Commercial Organisation said, “We are very pleased to bring this important and well established medicine for the first time to doctors and their patients in Japan, our second largest market. The main goal of metastatic breast cancer treatment is to prevent disease progression while maintaining quality of life and FASLODEX 500mg will give women the possibility of more control over their disease.”
According to AstraZeneca, FASLODEX 500mg works by blocking the action of oestrogen at its receptor. Furthermore, it also disrupts oestrogen signaling, leading to down-regulation of the oestrogen receptors in the tumor. The company says that this distinct mechanism of action not only reduces the growth and spread of the cancer but may help to reduce or delay resistance to treatment.
FASLODEX is approved in 72 countries around the world and 500mg doses are approved in 54 countries. AstraZeneca said that they expect FASLODEX 500mg to be launched in Japan by the end of July of this year.

Polka dots, big shoulders and dad trainers are just some of the big fashion trends having a moment this season.
But a former Vogue editor has pointed out that one iconic woman appears to be our unlikely style inspiration for all three and more.
The late Princess Diana was an early-adopter in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
Alexandra Shulman - who worked at the helm of British Vogue for 25 years until 2017 - has suggested her sartorial influence can still be felt in the wardrobes of the current generation of young women.
“For 30 years after the pinstripe tailoring, polka dot frocks, big shoulders and dad trainers of the late 1980s and early 1990s, their most famous adopter, Princess Diana, has emerged as a style inspiration for a generation of young women who were rocking little more than nappies while she was still alive,” she wrote in today’s Mail On Sunday.
Shulman explained that the royal wasn’t considered a particularly “original or interesting dresser” at the time, and was more of a “follower rather than leader of fashion”.
The ex-editor explained: “Perhaps we could never quite get out of our heads those first images of her in the regulation Sloane kit of pie-crust collar blouses, frumpy floating midi skirts and that ballooning meringue of a wedding dress, all of which we considered, frankly, style-negative.
“So even when she emerged as the shimmering blonde greyhound of later days in the Versace sheaths, tuxedos and glamorous Catherine Walker evening gowns she was introduced to by her style mentor, Anna Harvey, there was always something of a follower rather than leader of fashion about her.”
Now, as Shulman points out, Diana’s style can be felt in current trends.
She frequently wore monochrome polka dots - not dissimilar to Zara’s cult smock dress.
The actress shared a picture on Instagram of the late royal at the 1988 premiere of Octopussy, before stepping out in a remarkably similar dress just hours later.
And popular fashion brand Rixo is selling a high neck ruffle-front dress called the ‘Diana Floral’.
The description reads: “Feel as though you are the people’s princess when you wear this gorgeous dress.”
