Honeymoons are meant to be wonderful, love-filled, exciting trips where all your worries are eased by time spent with your partner.What happens to your mind and body during a sex drought
But for London-based style blogger and Marie Claire columnist Callie Thorpe, her worries were heightened when she started receiving online hate after posting a honeymoon photo of herself riding a bike in Mexico to her Instagram.
28-year-old Callie, who posed on the bike in a swimsuit, was told by hateful commenters that she should ‘keep cycling’ so that she ‘wouldn’t be so fat’.
Callie let the comments slide and got on with her trip – but they really started to grate on her when she returned home.
I mean,zero fucks were given yesterday, it was just SO hot so I stripped off and cycled in my bikini 👙insecurities fade away when you let yourself really enjoy living in the moment. So what that I have rolls and my tummy jiggles I cycled over 18km yesterday I have the capability to do whatever I want and so do you! 🚲💕💕 #effyourbeautystandards
She told PEOPLE: ‘One in particular made comments about me needing grease to get into my wedding dress and that really upset me.
‘I think it was an accumulation of exhaustion after a 10-hour flight, and it being one of the first things I saw when I got back into our home together. I started to cry and I just thought, ‘When will this stop?’ and ‘Why do I deserve this just because I share pictures of myself enjoying my life on the internet like everyone else?’’25 things you only know if you’re a size 16
But after getting all of that frustration out of her system, Callie decided she wasn’t going to let the comments get to her. In fact, she was going to post more pictures – letting the online haters know just how much she loves the skin she’s in.
First, she posted a picture of herself in her bikini. And instead of focusing on how she looked in the bikini – she asked her followers why it even mattered. Why should she be congratulated for wearing a bikini just because she’s not a size 0?
It's not brave to be in a Bikini guys, it's just not I don't deserve a medal or your praise when I put one on and share it on Instagram. Let's all get to a point where it's just normal for a woman to put on a bathing suit on her holiday and it not be a big deal. I felt cute AF today all size 24 of me 💅🏻💋 PS don't forget to follow my new page @theconfidencecorner & use #theconfidencecorner to be included 🌸🌺 Bikini is linked in my bio
Callie, a size 24, said: ‘It’s not brave to be in a Bikini guys, it’s just not I don’t deserve a medal or your praise when I put one on and share it on Instagram. Let’s all get to a point where it’s just normal for a woman to put on a bathing suit on her holiday and it not be a big deal.’
Then, she posted a photo of herself in a swimsuit – this time to focus on cellulite. She noted that it’s normal – practically everyone has it. ‘It’s a part of our skin, it’s bumps of fat underneath said skin,’ she wrote.
‘I promise you that no matter how many creams or how much you ‘brush your skin’ you will still have it. It makes no difference on you as a person or certainly on how attractive you are.’
Let's talk about cellulite. I have it, you most likely have it. It's a part of our skin, it's bumps of fat underneath said skin and I promise you that no matter how many creams our how much you 'brush your skin' you will still have it. It makes no difference on you as a person or certainly on how attractive you are. As @gabifresh once said you can't get Cellulite without ' U LIT' 🔥💥🔥💥🔥💥 share your cellulite photos with me using #theconfidencecorner tag and don't forget to follow my new page @theconfidencecorner
Finally, she posted a photo of her and her husband, Dan, as a big middle finger to all who still don’t get that she’s happy in her own skin, and that’s all that matters.
And she really hit the nail on the head when she said: ‘So I’ll take being fat, I’d rather be overweight and full of love than an image of perfection and lonely.’
Let’s face it, she looks ridiculously happy and in love and that sure beats worrying about what you look like to trolls you’ve never met.
But of course – the issue is bigger than that. It’s not just about online trolls, is it?
So, jet lag does things to a girl, like makes you irrationally cry over internet bullies who know nothing about you. Well I have a message to any 'human beings' that want to torment or bully me for my size, who want to go out of their way to stalk through my photos or seek me out on social media… Take a seat and ENJOY THE SHOW, that is my happy life. ❤ Grab some popcorn because it doesn't get much better than this. So I have extra weight, I also have ridiculously wonderful friends, a great job and a person that loves me. ALL OF ME from head to toe, big or small, fat or thin. I have a constant, loving kind, companion, to travel with, to laugh with to ease the pain during the bad times in life. Sadly all you have is anger and hatred. So I'll take being fat, I'd rather be overweight and full of love than an image of perfection and lonely. But on this final note I send you nothing but love and light and hope that one day you get even a tiny drop of what I have because it sure sounds lonely on that pedestal of yours up there. Photo by @kirstymackenziephotography
It’s about how we view ourselves and how we feel in our own skin. While Callie is visibly happy with who she is (and so she should be, we think she’s gorgeous), not all women can relate.
A study conducted by Weight Watchers found that 40% of Brits avoid mirrors because they don’t like what they see, while 15% actually refuse to have mirrors in their house – and over a quarter shop online to avoid seeing their reflection in a changing room mirror.
And that’s just heartbreaking.
If we could all stop comparing ourselves to other people, giving out negative opinions on people, we don’t know, and feeling as though none of us can stop until we achieve this simply unattainable level of beauty, maybe, just maybe, we could get work on what’s most important – loving ourselves.

We live in a world in which money is a daily necessity and Wuhan is no different. It is said that financial freedom comes to the person who actively takes control of their finances. As students, teachers and business owners in Wuhan, we can secure a good financial future by practicing money saving tips. Here are some practical money saving ideas that we can incorporate into our daily lives.
1Pay yourself first
This comes from the book The Richest Man in Babylon by George S. Clason. Begin today by saving 10% of your monthly earnings and keeping it in a special savings account. Survive on the other 90% of your salary, stipend or allowance to take care of your monthly needs. This promotes frugal living and you will soon be accustomed to living on 90% without loss or discomfort. We are creatures of habit, so the more we do it the easier it becomes. As this continues, it will be easier to save 10, 15 or even 20% of your earnings.
2Budget the Bills
Sit down and write all of your needed expenses during the month. This can include phone bill, groceries, electricity, internet and entertainment bill. Analyze where a few changes can be made on the list and stick to the plan. If their is additional money remaining, this can go towards an Emergency Fund.
Recommendation- Download Mint app. Mint allows you to visually see where your money goes and allows the user to budget and save money. You input your income and set a budget for different spending categories. Mint then puts these into easy to read pie charts and graphs. There is even the ability to receive personalized emails and messages for spending patterns and alerts for going over budget, making it easier to become the master of your own finances.
3Establish an Emergency Fund
The money within your emergency account should not be touched unless their is an actual emergency. This money is saved after the budget preparations are made. If you lose your job or have to go the hospital, you will have something to fall back on without having to sacrifice that big purchase you have been saving for.
4Track your Spending
Use your mobile phone or a note pad and make a note of every spending and the cost made throughout the day. Review this list at the end of each week to see how the money is actually being spent. If a person does not know his/her income and expense down to the penny then they can never successfully save money.
5Pause for Thought
If you are about to buy something which is not a necessity, and you have a little quiet voice whispering to you, listen to it, and wait a few days before you make the purchase. It gives you time to compare prices elsewhere, or to come up with an alternative, or even to decide that you do not need or want it. Always ask the question, “Why am I buying this item？”
6Get Organised and Prepare your Day
Preparations for the new day should begin the night before. Preparations can include checking the weather forecast and possibly packing an umbrella. We are all aware of the unpredictability of Wuhan’s weather so a daily check of the forecast is helpful in saving money. By preparing the night before the chances of forgetting an umbrella, certain pair of shoes or a jacket are significantly reduced. Their is no need to spend money on items you already have at home.
7Prepare some meals at home
This involves making lots of meals at one go and dividing them into containers. The meals are then refrigerated and used during the course of the week. This saves money for two reasons. The first reason is that you will be using all the ingredients that were purchased so they will be fresh and not wasted. The second reason is that its an easy way to feed ourselves daily. The meals can be heated up in the microwave and taken to work or class. On designated days, eating out at restaurants can be done.
8Drink Water and Eat Breakfast Daily
Eating a healthy breakfast and drinking water will fill you up with energy and reduces the desire for a big expensive lunch. Most times breakfast can be healthy, quick and inexpensive. Drink a glass of water before each meal inorder to stay full and eat less.
9Turn off Lights and Electronics
If you have electric water boiler, that might be the reason why your electricity bills are so high. You can dramatically reduce usage of electricity with digital electronics switcher (you can find it in Walmart or Taobao. Simply plug your water boiler or any other electric device such as heater and set the time according to your day schedule. For example set that water boiler would automatically turn on half an hour before you wake up.
When their is no one in the apartment the lights should be turned off. This saves tons of cash on electricity bill. Appliances and electronics that are not being used need to be plugged out. Appliances still consume energy while they are in standby mode. In addition, LED lights cost more initially but their power requirements are lower and last longer than incandescent bulbs.
10Clean out the closet
Cleaning the clutter in your closet will prevent unnecessary purchases of clothing you already have at home. Search through your closet and find anything and everything you no longer use. Do not get rid of these items, but use them to help others. They are less fortunate people in Wuhan who would gladly accept good used clothing. Observe the people in your environment to determine who is in great need of assistance.
11Know Where to Shop
Do you know where to shop cheap clothing ? In Wuhan they are many places where you can find low cost clothing apparel and accessories to fit your need. The prices allow shoppers to be in style and still have some change in their pocket.
12Become a lifelong Money Saving Student
As money saving students you should read the best books on how to save money, investing, interest and inflation, take courses and subscribe to the most helpful magazines. Many e books are available at a fraction of the cost it would require to buy a hard back copy.
Recommended Books are；-

Isolated and inhospitable, this huge collection of razor-sharp vertical rocks looks like the last place where wildlife would thrive. The colossal 'Grand Tsingy' landscape in western Madagascar is the world's largest stone forest, where high spiked towers of eroded limestone tower over the greenery. But despite its cold, dangerous appearance, the labyrinth of 300ft stones is home to a number of animal species, including 11 types of lemur.

Nyiragongo Volcano, Congo, Africa © Robert Harding - National Geographic
These are the Virunga Volcanoes. This picture shows the true beauty of mother nature, even though only one volcano is pictured out of the chain of them.
Mount Nyiragongo, an active volcano in the Virunga Mountains in Virunga National Park, near the border with Rwanda Photograph Robert Harding I saw this at night and the rim and the clouds around it was glowing red. My heart stopped at the sight of this beautiful volcano. While I was driving or walking around there thought, the locals told my friend and I about how everything we are on is the aftermath of the eruption.
Best of the World 2012 - Virunga Volcanoes Photograph by Last Refuge, Robert Harding World Imagery/Corbis Africa's Green and Fiery Heart Perhaps nowhere on Earth is the dual creative and destructive nature of volcanoes more evident than in central Africa’s Virunga Volcanoes Massif. Straddling the borders between Rwanda, Uganda, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the eight-volcano chain is one of Earth’s most active volcanic regions and a veritable salad bowl for mountain gorillas, chimpanzees, elephants, and other wildlife. Landscapes in all three countries conjure visions of both Eden and hell. In Congo, the swirling plume of the active Nyiragongo Volcano (above) beckons. Check on the security situation in the troubled country before going, but those who make the steep five-hour hike up Nyiragongo are rewarded with heady vistas of the world’s largest lava lake. Spend the night on the rim to fully experience the crater’s fiery light and sound spectacle.

Join Outward Bound and other veterans on this wilderness expedition designed to provide veterans an opportunity to be together outside the military and experience the Colorado Rockies.
One of the most famous mountain ranges in the world, the Rocky Mountains stretch 3,000 miles from Alaska to New Mexico. They have provided the foundation of legends and have had a profound influence on the development of the continental United States. Native Americans were the first to live among these peaks.
In more recent times, the Spanish launched major expeditions into these mountains, searching for gold and precious minerals. Although no one is sure who first climbed them, the first documented exploration of the Colorado Rockies was undertaken in 1776 by two Franciscan priests. From that point on, Colorado became a magnet for prospectors, explorers and pioneers. The greatest concentration of high peaks, hundreds of "Thirteeners" (13,000+ foot mountains) and 54 "Fourteeners" are in Colorado. No matter what peak you climb, there will be strenuous hiking, followed by fantastic views.
Your course begins with a few days at our premier base camp, the Leadville Mountain Center. Here, you will meet your instructors, issue gear and start working with your crew of 6 to 10 other people. Your first full day will be spent rock climbing at a local site, practicing rope and climbing techniques on granite domes. After that, you will head out into the mountains for a four day backpacking journey.
For many vets, the backcountry experience is the course high point. Day 3 marks the beginning of this short yet challenging backcountry expedition, camping out and traveling in pristine alpine terrain. All of your food and gear will be carried in the backpack on your back. In this section, you will learn navigation, simple first aid, good backcountry self care and how to assess and adapt to varying weather conditions. Toward the end of the backcountry section, you and your group will have a chance to attempt one of the famous, Rocky Mountain summits.

Hailing from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the members of Black Moth Super Rainbow show a mastery of mystery melody and synthesizers that put you into a state of head bobbing bliss as you float through the seventeen tracks on their 2007 release Dandelion Gum.
My first experience with this band was in December of 2007. Surprisingly, they were the openers to Long Island hip-hop heavy weight Aesop Rock. Their chest thumping drum and bass rhythms took over their show and locked my body into a fixated trance of motion. They were one of the few openers that I have seen in all of my live music experiences that would later become one of my favorite bands.
While they have recently re-released their first record, Falling Through A Field, with a few extra b-sides, the Pittsburgh band’s new album, Dandelion Gum is by far their best effort to date. All of the band’s third studio album’s 17 tracks are drum and base heavy, much like their live shows. Yet where these songs shine is through their ability to melodically blend an array of synthesized sounds and vocals into progressive and at times, damn catchy tunes.
“Sun Lips” reflects their ability to flow the beat into a catchy melody that mellows the soul, while songs like “Opener Forever Heavy,” “Melt Me,” and “Caterpillar House” exemplify that fast passed groovy side of Super Rainbow that also draws in elements of the Flaming Lips, which they supported on their 2007 tour. One of the last tracks on this acid trip of an album, “Lost Picking Flowers in the Woods,” starts off with an intro that summons the essence of Ray Charles and moves right into what BMSR does best with a bass thumping electro dance beat coupled with a ghostly voice that is too a signature BMSR move.
Ant not to go unmentioned is the album’s unique eye-catching cover art. On all their records, and posters for that matter, Black Moth Super Rainbow offer original throwbacks to the days of Warhol with elements of modern pop and street art. This emphasis on album art is a true rarity in music these days. These images that essentially follow the band, bring a visual aspect to the music, a nostalgic move that is reminiscent of the days of LP’s when the cover art really mattered.
The tracks on Dandelion Gum flow seamlessly from one into the other, and while they are short at less than three minutes, you’ll hardly notice. After all, your mind will likely be lost in the back woods of Pennsylvania on a psychedelic musical frolic through the meadows of Appalachia.

The pressurized air includes kinetic energy that could be used to achieve certain goals. Typically talking, this type of devices is utilized in virtually every kind of engineering, manufacturing, or plant procedure worldwide. Functions vary from blowing up tires to aiding in the function of tools.
There are a number of different air compression methods that are generally split right into 2 primary groups: Favorable Displacement Air Compressors and Unfavorable Displacement Air Compressors.
Amongst the Positive Variation Air Compressors, there are additionally couple of different types. These all function by forcing air into a chamber where the quantity within the chamber is decreased to make sure that the air could be pressed. These deliver a set volume of highly pressurized air. The favorable variation air compressor kinds include:
Piston-Type Air Compressors – these are frequently compared to a vehicle engine. They use continuously moving pistons to pump air into a chamber. Each of the pistons has a one method valve that will certainly assist to send out the air right into the chamber to make sure that it can be compressed.
Rotary Screw Compressors – this type uses two matching helical screws, which turn to develop a pocket in between them. That enables the air to be transferred into the chamber where it will certainly be pressed. As the screws transform, the volume tends to lower.
Rotary Vane Compressors – these use a blades with ports in it that holds a system for varied blade placement. As they turn, the blades grow longer and also shorter, relying on whether each particular blade concerned is actually pressing air. The blades help to guide the air right into the chamber and afterwards compress the volume.
Negative Displacement Air Compressors consist of:
Centrifugal Compressors – these devices use a process called dynamic displacement. They develop centrifugal force via the use of a rotating impellor. That force is then used to accelerate captured air which is pressurized as it makes its method through the impeller as it rotates. The kinetic power is transferred from a blades to the air in order to press it.
Some of the leading brand names of air compressors are Atlas Copco, Ingersoll Rand, Gardner Denver, as well as Sullair.
While some compressors are lubricated with oil, others do not require it. Those that do not make use of oil have sealed bearings. As a result of this, there is notably much less upkeep required for that devices. The motors are generally electrical as well as are substantially quieter compared to oil-lubricated tools. That claimed, the compressors that are oiled by oil have the benefit of a much higher ability for greater pressures. In addition, they can run for a much longer period of time compared to the oil-less compressors. The oil-lubricated compressors additionally need much less devices.
Regardless of what sort of compressor is chosen, waste warmth – known as adiabatic warm – is produced. This is caused when the gas pressure increases as an outcome of the work being done on it by its surroundings. In order to keep this effect to a minimum, there is typically some kind of water or air cooling system that makes up a part of the general compressor system. Rotary kind compressors will require cooling by oil.
When purchasing an utilized air compressor, it is advised that you discover how many hours the compressor you are taking into consideration has actually already been made use of. You should additionally explore its age, model, manufacturer, horse power and cubic feet per minute (CFM). You will also wish to find out what is associated with the upkeep of this devices as well as how much this will certainly set you back. Clearly those that need oil substitute will certainly be higher, yet they will certainly also provide higher power. There is no particular lifespan for an air compressor. Nonetheless, great makes as well as versions that have actually been appropriately kept can conveniently last for 60,000 to 80,000 hours.
When you are seeking to purchase a made use of air compressor, see to it that you ask about its condition, its prior use, and also the number of hrs that it has actually already been made use of. In order to know that your selection will certainly be of the highest quality, it is also crucial that you choose a supplier that is both educated and also trusted.
Selecting a correct supplier of made use of air compressors provides you the opportunity to benefit from affordable rates and immediate installation. Prices will certainly vary from a couple of hundred dollars to a couple of hundred thousand bucks, depending on the kind, dimension, age, and also problem of the machinery you are thinking about.

CONNECTICUT (USA): DEATH PENALTY REPEAL BILL APPROVED BY JUDICIARY COMMITTEE
April 12, 2011: The legislature's Judiciary Committee approved 26-17 a bill that would abolish in Connecticut the death penalty, replacing it with a sentence of life in prison without the possibility of release.
This marks the second time in three years that lawmakers have considered repealing the death penalty. In 2009, both chambers passed a similar bill but it was vetoed by Gov. M. Jodi Rell. Her successor, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy, is an opponent of the death penalty and has said he will sign a repeal bill should one reach his desk.
Supporters of the repeal listed a number of reasons why Connecticut should join Illinois, New Jersey and New Mexico in abolishing the death penalty. They cited the enormous amount of time it takes to execute a prisoner in this state, the painful toll that endless appeals take on the families of murder victims, instances of racial bias in implementing the death penalty and the fact that a mistake can lead to the execution of an innocent person.
But Sen. Edward Meyer, D-Guilford, said lawmakers ultimately should view the issue as a matter of conscience. He invoked former U.S. Supreme Court Justice Harry Blackmun, who announced he would "no longer tinker with the machinery of death." "This, after all is said and done, is ... a matter of conscience of each individual legislator," said Meyer, who voted to support the repeal. Rep. Al Adinolfi, R-Cheshire, disagreed. He said lawmakers shouldn't rely on their own conscience, but rather the will of their constituents.
The proposal now heads to the state House of Representatives, where it is also expected to pass. The vote in the state Senate is expected to be close.
Since the U.S. Supreme Court reinstated the death penalty in 1976, only one person has been executed in Connecticut: Michael Ross, who voluntarily suspended all appeals in his case. (Source: Connecticut Mirror, The Hartford Courant, 12/04/2011)

The Residential Energy Services Network (RESNET), a non-profit dedicated to developing home energy efficiency rating systems, saw record-breaking number of requests for HERS Rating (Home and Energy System Rating) in 2020.
Undeterred by a global pandemic and economic shut-downs across the nation, requests for HERS Ratings increased 24 percent from 2019. The average HERS Rating for assessed homes in 2020 was 58.
The HERS Rating system is on a 0-100 scale, with a rating of zero being the highest energy efficiency a home could score and 100 being the lowest efficiency score.
“Homebuilders are increasingly seeing energy efficiency as a major selling point for buying a new home,” said RESNET Executive Director Steve Bade, “To take advantage of this opportunity, builders across the nation are presenting their homes’ energy performance in a way that every home buyer can understand, the home’s HERS Index Score.”
Among states with 1,000 or more rated homes, Minnesota had the lowest HERS Rating on average.

The CSF MultiOne 10 Series mini loader, developed in collaboration with AMV Design, will be presented at Eima International 2016, which takes place in Bologna, Italy, on November 9-13.
The CSF MultiOne 10 is compact, powerful and as flexible as the preceding models, and picks up where the 9 Series left off, with the same architectural platform and top quality components. On top of that, Series 10 features improved lifting capacity, speed and pushing force, taking its performance to the very limits of small loader capabilities and acquiring achieving ‘best-in-class’ status.
Renowned for the variety of solutions that it can offer, CSF MultiOne started its design development with AMV Design about ten years ago when it changed its look for the first time. Along the way many series have been styled, and the design kept pace with the other technical innovations. The Series 10 concept design confirmed this combination of improvements, particularly focusing on the rear hood and side surfaces, as well as on the comfort and ergonomics of the new bigger cabin.
As with the previous series, the design was smoothly and intelligently adapted to ensure that the compact but multi-purpose spirit of the machine was harmoniously evolved. The vehicle is ideal for professional use, hobbies and leisure.

At ICPPD we are currently busy marketing and advertising our programmes due to commence end of September 2015. I was thinking about the natural journey of personal and professional development in my own life beginning with a Personal Development Course and a programme on Family Studies from NUI Maynooth. Hindsight is great and as I reflect I see a journey that although I choose to follow, there seems also to be bigger picture unfolding and perhaps destiny at work.
I share the following for no other reason than to say if I can do it, so can you!
I then progressed to a two year Foundation Course in Counselling and Psychotherapy and on to a Professional Training Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy. Following the completion of this programme I commenced my work as a counsellor/psychotherapist and began to work my extra 450 hours as a therapist and the required criteria to become an accredited therapist. 5 years later I began a Supervision course and progressed over the next two year to become an accredited supervisor. I still wonder about the shy woman who went on to deliver and facilitate therapeutic workshops and present at conferences.
10 years ago I found myself (another story of providence happening perfectly) in Dublin commencing a full time Masters Degree programme. An experience I thoroughly enjoyed. This enhanced my work at that time which involved tutoring on training programmes in Counselling and Psychotherapy. All of this brought me to the point of opening our own college in Athlone, ICPPD. I am now hoping to commence a PhD at some stage in the near future. I love learning and being in places of learning with people who are curious and interested in learning.
I remember the mix of excitement, anxiety and exhilaration I felt at each of the courses I undertook. The energy it took to make the initial enquiry and book my place. The apprehension and sometimes panic I felt on the first nights as I entered the class to meet the people there and introduce myself. It was painful. Wondering if I would be able for the academic requirements and assessments expected of me. Supporting myself around my interactions with my fellow learners and trying to gauge how much to disclose and how to protect myself from being vulnerable at times was a personal and worthwhile challenge. Securing finances was my main worry and trying to balance my study and time for myself with being a mother, wife and family member. I remember the guilt I felt at times and how I would beat myself up, until I learned to be kinder to myself and others.
I remember the challenge to keep going on days when I was too tired to think, and it all seemed too much for me. I will never forget the people who probably unknowing supported and encouraged me, a silent hand on my shoulder, a warm gesture to a chair beside them, an encouraging smile, a word of praise given freely just when I needed it, a cup of tea, a bed for the night and more. They seem like small things but they made the difference. I didn’t feel alone or that I was on my own.
Then finally getting there and the sense of achievement and satisfaction derived. It is a special feeling, yours alone. The courage it took to begin is celebrated in this final appreciation of the inner and outer struggle and adventure. I usually have a sense of gratitude for where I have come from, wonder at the Universe and the plans it has for me, excitement for where I am now and a curiosity about what’s next. This journey of life we are given and participate in is so amazing. Reminiscing is nostalgic and poignant as I encounter my humanity reflected in others and their lives.
So if you are considering a personal challenge, are thinking of returning to education or are considering signing up for a programme, I wish you well. If ever I can be of help and you have questions and concerns, I am happy to answer your queries and hopefully encourage you to follow your dream. When the time is right, there is a natural urge or whispering within and if we listen and do our part then our world opens to the adventure ahead. Embrace the journey.

Nanoparticles of lead zirconate titanate (PZT) used as ferroelectric ceramics produced by sol–gel acetic-acid route
- 479 Downloads
The aim of this work was to synthesize lead zirconate titanate (PZT) nanopowder using a modified sol–gel processing method. PZT obtained by a sol–gel route using acetic acid had compositions in the morphotropic phase boundary (Ti/Zr, 53/47 and 45/55). All samples were annealed in air at 800 °C and sintered at temperature above 1,000 °C. Structure and morphology of the samples were determined and characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, dilation, densification and pyroelectric response. Results of X-ray diffraction on samples PZT showed a phase, but not a pyrochlore one, which we determined to be the best pyroelectric response. The samples presented high densification and had appropriate characteristics when used as pyroelectric sensors. Ceramics with a composition of 53/47 had the best pyroelectric response. An average particle size of 20 nm was measured using TEM.

YORBA LINDA – Instead of taking advantage of the countless Presidents Day sales Monday, thousands visited the Richard Nixon Presidential Library & Museum.
The nearly 4,000 people were treated not only to free admission to the library, which opened in 1990, but to a special presidential program – “Mount Rushmore of Presidents.”
Actors portrayed presidents George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Jefferson and Theodore Roosevelt, who are immortalized in a sculpture carved into the granite face of Mount Rushmore in Keystone, S.D.
“It’s an opportunity for the public to learn more about American history,” said Jonathan Movroydis, spokesman for the Richard Nixon Foundation, which sponsored the event.
“People of all ages learn not only about President Nixon, but also the country’s founding fathers,” he said.
The presidential impersonators greeted visitors as they entered the library’s lobby prior to their performance in the East Room.
The “presidents” talked about their time in office, highlighting accomplishments, and then took questions from the audience.
Free slices of cherry pie were given to the first 100 guests.

In September I was on a boat trip to Scotland. And although it was very disturbed by storms (we were unable to call many ports and destinations as a result), I am very grateful for having been to cities like Edinburgh (on the day of our visit there, Queen Elizabeth II died), Glasgow and areas like the Highlands or Islands like the Isle of Harris (with the Callendish Standing Stones). The whole country is breathtakingly beautiful! The last picture shows more of an sketched ‘impression’ of an area in the Highlands than a worked out motif. I decided to leave it as it is, for me it reflects the essence
Last weekend I was in Basel to promote my new graphic novel adaptation of 20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA at the Comixshop Basel booth (at the “Fantasy Basel” fair). Tomorrow is the first sale day of this ‘sequel’ to my WAR OF THE WORLDS adaption, and we already had copies
November 20th, 11:30 – 12:15 am, Kulturetage, Bahnhofstraße 11, 26122 Oldenburg
Hello friends! On Sunday, November 20th, we will be guests at KIBUM, the Oldenburg Children’s Book Fair, and will be giving a reading concert of my graphic novel 20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA (Carlsen Comics) based on Jules Verne’s famous classic!
In the concert we’ll take you on a journey through the fantastic underwater world of Jules Verne: while the images from the comic are playing before your eyes, I will be reading parts from the book to live music improvisations (played by Jörg Walter on a historic reed organ), and together we’ll let the adventures of Captain Nemo and his passengers come alive for you! Afterwards, if we still have time, I’ll give a small workshop report about how my working process on the graphic novel was like and insights into the work of a comic artist. And of course I’ll be happy to sign your copies of the book.
So let’s go to the “Kulturetage” at Bahnhofstrasse 11 in 26122 Oldenburg, on November 20th – and do this musical under water world tour all together!

Ohio farmers, businesses and others remain interested in solar energy, despite the impact of a legislative freeze in the state’s renewable portfolio standards, and a university program is helping them make informed decisions.
The solar, wind and biofuels industries are urging the 41-member bicameral farm bill conference committee to provide rural energy programs nearly $1 billion in mandatory funding.
The USDA’s ability to carry out rural renewable energy projects was left to dangle Monday night with the expiration of the farm bill.
Renewable energy and chemical advocates are putting pressure on congressional agriculture leaders to support robust funding for rural energy and biofuel programs as leaders head into a conference committee on the farm bill.
Unless Congress passes another law or extends the current one, several federal renewable energy programs will end on September 30.
