Reprinted from Eating Disorders Review
March/April 2004 Volume 15, Number 2
©2004 Gürze Books
Three British researchers have recently developed a new cognitive model for bulimia nervosa (BN) that highlights the development and maintenance of the disorder, and also explores some reasons why binge eating is so persistent (Br J Clin Psychol 2004;43:1).
Dr. Myra J. Cooper, of Warneford Hospital, Oxford, UK, and two colleagues developed their model based on recent developments in cognitive theory, particularly Beck’s general schema and schema-based avoidance and compensatory behaviors. They also followed the idea that conflicting and interacting beliefs and unhelpful coping strategies are involved in maintaining some disorders.
The researchers initially conducted detailed semi-structured interviews with 12 female patients with DSM-III-R diagnoses of BN, assessing each patient’s most recent episodes of binge eating. They recorded the patient’s thoughts and feelings before, during, and after bingeing, and questioned the women about compensatory behaviors and dieting. Dr. Cooper and colleagues continued the interviews using Burn’s downward arrow technique (Burns, 1980) to identify underlying assumptions and core beliefs as well as any schema-driven processes and early experiences that might have contributed to the development of BN.
Negative experiences and development of BN
Negative or traumatic experiences in early childhood, such as neglect or indifference by parents, and, in extreme cases, sexual, physical, or emotional abuse, may lead to dysfunctional beliefs, especially negative self-beliefs, according to the authors. Experiences in adolescence may also give rise to negative self-beliefs. A person may then try to compensate for these negative self-beliefs. Dieting is the most common compensatory method. The person may believe that dieting will ensure that they will be accepted by others (‘If I lose weight, others will like me more’) and that they will be more acceptable to themselves (‘If I lose weight, it means I’m successful’). Usually, however, there are negative counterpoints to these positive assumptions (‘if I gain weight, then I have failed.’)
Maintaining bulimic behaviors
According to the authors, four specific types of cognitions are active in the vicious circles that maintain episodes of binge eating: (1) positive beliefs about eating, (2) negative beliefs about weight and shape, (3) thoughts of having no control, and (4) permissive thoughts.
An episode of binge eating may be preceded by the activation of negative beliefs about the self as an ‘acceptable’ person. Events that trigger binge eating may be related to eating, weight and shape—for example, this could be a remark about the person’s weight or how much they are eating, or catching sight of oneself in a mirror—or may be unrelated to weight or appearance. Some examples of this are an argument with a partner or making a mistake at work. The trigger then activates a negative self-belief (‘I’m unlovable’ or ‘I’m a failure’). People with eating disorders learn to manage negative self-directed emotions such as these by eating, for eating and the associated preoccupation with food gives them a distraction from the negative emotions. It also produces changes in cognition and through direct physiologic pathways and changes in interoception (including emotional states and sensations of hunger and satiety, according to the researchers.
Eating is commonly linked to a generally lowering of arousal and a general decrease of arousal and in the intensity of emotional states. At first these are interpreted positively and eating is thus linked to positive beliefs. However, eating behavior cannot help the patient restructure negative self-beliefs; thus, for those with BN, eating, especially overeating, is also linked with negative beliefs about the potential consequences. Thus, the person with BN is placed into a state of conflict in which both positive and negative beliefs about eating coexist.
The authors believe their model can be helpful for explaining changing and alternating patterns of behavior in which the individual binges and then uses other behaviors, including purging, to compensate for it. The dissonance between these two conflicting sets of beliefs is resolved by permissive thoughts and/or by thoughts of having no control. Once permissive thoughts and thoughts of no control are activated, eating takes place. After eating, negative self-appraisals ad associated negative emotions activate negative beliefs about eating once more, completing the vicious circle.
Triggering binge eating
There is much evidence that binge eating in BN is preceded by considerable emotional and cognitive distress. Anxiety is the most commonly reported emotion that precedes binge eating. Higher-than-average levels of depression have also been reported in these patients. There is also some suggestion that negative cognitions, especially thoughts or feelings of loneliness may also precede or trigger bingeing. Bodily sensations, particularly feeling hungry or feeling full, may also trigger the binge cycle. Feeling full may make a patient feel she lacks control over eating.
The new model has a number of implications for treatment using cognitive therapy; mainly, according to the authors, it suggests that both maintenance and developmental processes will need to be addressed in each case. Each of the different types of cognitions that maintain episodes of binge eating will need to be tackled, perhaps with verbal restructuring and graded behavioral experiments. For beliefs involved in the development of BN, a useful approach might be standardized techniques, including both verbal restructuring and behavioral experiments (in which the individual tests his own underlying assumptions to see if they stand up to realistic challenges). Schema-focused techniques might also be helpful.

The Greatest Band: Part FourAfter The White Album, The Beatles decided to record their next album as simply as possible, playing together as a band instead of using advances in recording technology to (in some cases) isolate themselves from each other.
At the same time, it was decided to film the recording sessions. The film was to document the recording of the album, but instead, it wound up documenting a group of people who really didn't like each other anymore.
This was Let It Be, an album (and film) title full of irony.
The recording sessions were, to put it mildy, a mess. The acrimony overrode every positive moment. George Harrison, at one point, quit the band (Starr had briefly quit during the recording of The White Album).
"Final" versions of the album were mixed at least three times, the last by Phil Spector in only a week (this was the version used for the album).
The music reflects the disunity. There are still outstanding individual songs--"Two Of Us", "Across The Universe", "Let It Be", "One After 909", "For You Blue", and "Get Back" are all terrific (sorry, I can't stand "The Long And Winding Road", which, along with "Your Mother Should Know" from Magical Mystery Tour, should officially mark the beginning of Paul McCartney's mostly flaccid solo career)--but there's also a generous amount of filler, more so than on any previous album. It was ragged, but not in the gloriously excessive manner of The White Album.
Here's another moment, though, when The Beatles displayed their absolute singularity in terms of their identity and their music. They knew the band had essentially dissolved--hell, they didn't even like each other, and there was no chance they would continue as a band--but they wanted to record a final album that was a worthy exit.
Are you kidding me? When has that ever happened?
So The Beatles recorded a final album, and from the opening seconds of "Come Together", it's clear that this is, once more, a band at the peak of their creative genius. Abbey Road is as tightly wound and focused as any album The Beatles recorded, and it's electric. It's funny and joyous and dark and incredibly moving, and as a final statement, it's never been equaled.
In addition to the outstanding individual songs (my favorite is "Here Comes The Sun", although there's not really a single song that should be excluded), the 16-minute medley on side two that begins with "You Never Give Me Your Money" is nothing short of majestic. It's a statement album, really: we may be leaving, but we're kicking total ass one more time before we go.
Abbey Road was a record that was, essentially, impossible, given the state of the band at the time. It's entirely cohesive and entirely unified, and how The Beatles put aside their individual differences (and, at times, hatred) to record this album is impossible to understand. In an artistic sense, I greatly admire The Beatles for their creative genius, but there's nothing I admire more than their decision to record Abbey Road.
As it turns out, even though Abbey Road was recorded last, it was released before Let It Be, which has often led people to think that Let It Be was their last album together, a dispassionate goodbye.
The real goodbye, though, was the scorching intensity of Abbey Road.

The monument is at the site of Jacquet's burial at the Woodlawn Cemetery in the Bronx, New York. Dr. Eugene Callendar, the pastor of St. James Presbyterian Church, will lead the ceremony; speakers include jazz scholar and disc jockey Phil Schaap.
Following the ceremony, a jazz band led by Juilliard jazz director Victor Goines will perform.
Admission is free. For more information, call 718-920-1460 or email firstname.lastname@example.org.
Jacquet was born in Louisiana and grew up in Houston. He made his most indelible mark on the jazz world at age 19, when he recorded a screeching, passionate solo for Hampton's Flying Home. The recording was a huge hit, and the solo—sometimes credited as the first rhythm and blues solo—became a nightly feature of Hampton's act.
After leaving Hampton's band, Jacquet played with Cab Calloway and Count Basie and with a series of small groups. Starting in 1981, he led his own big band. He was a revered and omnipresent figure in the last decades of his life, appearing at Bill Clinton's inaugural ball in 1993 and in annual concerts at Lincoln Center's Midsummer Night Swing series.

Executive War College: First-Ever ‘Shark Tank’ on Clinical Lab 2.0 and Adding Value Happens May 2 in New Orleans—Clinical Laboratories with Innovative Services Invited to Present
AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 2, 2019--The clinical laboratory industry’s first-ever showcase of how innovative labs collaborate with physicians and payers to improve patient outcomes and reduce the cost of care, happens May 2 at the 24 th annual Executive War College on Lab and Pathology Management. The Clinical Lab 2.0 ‘Shark Tank’ will enable innovative labs to present their added-value clinical successes to a panel of experts. Winners gain access to expertise and resources to help them advance their Clinical Lab 2.0 patient care programs.
Inspired by the Shark Tank TV program, the ‘Clinical Lab 2.0 Shark Tank’ is an opportunity for progressive lab managers and pathologists to present their projects and collaborations with hospitals, physicians, and payers that are contributing to better patient care and significant reductions in cost. A panel of experts including Myra Wilkerson, Chair of Pathology at Geisinger Health; Rick Panning, Administrative Director of Laboratory Services, HealthPartners; and Philip Chen, Chief Strategy Officer, Sonic Healthcare USA, will hear the presentations.
Clinical laboratories selected to present will enjoy these benefits:
- Presenter will receive a full scholarship to Executive War College, including airfare, hotel, and registration
- Presenting labs will have their Clinical Lab 2.0 successes highlighted in a national press release. A case study of their clinical service project will be published by The Dark Report
- The winning lab in the ‘Shark Tank’ event will be invited to speak at national lab conferences this fall
- The winning lab will also be able to arrange a site visit with one of the Project Santa Fe labs to foster an exchange of Clinical Lab 2.0 innovations that are succeeding, and to identify new ways to deliver more value in patient care
This is an important opportunity for all clinical laboratories and anatomic pathology groups to learn useful ways to add value, and to ensure financial success during the transition away from fee-for-service payment to value-based reimbursement—payment for how they help hospitals, physicians, ACOs, and health insurers improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs.

Do you know the Hazards of Vaping?
Do you know the Hazards of Vaping?
A vaporizer is a new type of digital camera that mimics traditional tobacco smoking cigarettes. It usually includes a glass tube having an electrically conductive power source such as a battery or an electric generator. Instead of burning tobacco, an individual smokes vapour instead. As such, having an electronic cigarette, frequently referred to as “vape”, is considered “anaesthetic smoking”.
There are numerous concerns associated with this new approach to nicotine delivery. Very first, vapour contains nicotine, an extremely addictive drug. Many experts believe that it is extremely unhealthy to have nicotine in one’s body at all. Also, it can take several hours and even days for the body to support the absorption of nicotine through inhalation, making it highly inefficient when attempting to quit. In addition, smokers are more likely to experience withdrawal symptoms when trying to give up smoking, when compared to those who use a cigarette.
The increased threat of cancer is another reason why it is a wise idea to give up smoking with the help of a vaporizer. As mentioned, various vaporizers emit a toxic element into the air, referred to as “e-smoke”. This toxic substance could cause serious lung harm if inhaled for an extended period of time. A number of the reported cases of lung harm include things like bronchial obstruction, emphysema, and chronic obstructive pulmonary ailment (COPD). It is vital to make sure that you avoid any electronic cigarettes which contain the “iquid”. However, if you must, always use a water-based lipper in order to avoid damaging your electronics.
Additionally, there are serious dangers associated with second hand smoking. By smoking in public places like bars, restaurants and also cinemas, you expose you to ultimately the harmful effects of carbon monoxide smoke. E-juices used with electronic cigarettes do not produce such harmful substances. In case you are concerned about medical risks of vapour technology, then you can make full use of water-based lippers that not produce e-smoke. Furthermore, e-juices used in combination with vaporisers are constantly stored in cool dark locations, away from children and pets. Actually, it is best to retain them in the cabinet of one’s bedroom, where they can’t be effortlessly accessed.
In addition, it has been established that the intake of vapour cigarettes can reduce the threat of some cancers, particularly the ones that develop in the mouth. For instance, mansour said that some cancers cases have already been reduced in men who have stopped smoking after using electronic cigarettes. According to mansour, “The main culprit in cancers of the mouth is nicotine. Nicotine acts very fast… Within days, it can kill you”. Therefore, it is possible to save from the harmful effects of tobacco if you quit smoking through a vaporizer.
Another reason as to the reasons researchers found it effective to stop smoking using e cigarettes is because they do not produce any side effects of these own. The most common side effect that the smoker experience is coughing, which is often alleviated if the vaporizer can be kept on. Also, some researchers found out that people who were suffering from asthma have observed significant improvement after utilizing them as well. However, it ought to be noted that asthma cannot be controlled by way of vaporizers alone. “But these devices can help control it”, researchers said. They also added these devices are as well known for their ability to help smokers stop smoking as they are for helping people to inhale oxygen.
In addition, researchers declare that mixing the liquid with natural ingredients like honey or coconut oil can increase its Vape efficiency. The researchers also claim that combining the liquid with fruits may also improve the functioning of lungs. As per the results of researches performed on animals, scientists stated that mixing the substances of Vape with certain herbal products (like ginseng and gingko biloba) had significant outcomes on the working of lungs. Also, another element that is very helpful for improving lung functioning will be grape seed extract.
An added reason as to the reasons Vape can lead to serious health risks is because they only deliver an extremely little bit of nicotine, while smoking a standard cigarette would release very concentrated nicotine. Additionally, there are no tar or toxic gases manufactured once you smoke an e cigarette. The risks of these products are therefore suprisingly low when compared to cigarettes. However, there are also some Vape consumers who reported some extent of irritation within their throats or mouths. They could experience difficulty in swallowing due to dripping. Also, due to absence of combustion, Vape could cause fire and burns to those who find themselves in its vicinity.

The Lewiston City Council reviewed the survey at a work session Monday afternoon, pointing out that 78% of the households interviewed have no children under the age of 18.
Lewiston City Library Director Alexa Eccles said the survey provides the library with helpful information, however her focus is on the future of the library and its services.
"I think information is always good, but we are on the right path," said Eccles. "We have purchased the building and we are moving forward and again focusing on the service that we're going to be providing."
Eccles also said that the city provides the same service regardless of the buildings location, pointing out that the survey failed to ask if households were already using library services.

Orion Crew Exploration Vehicle Passes Key NASA Milestone
Phase 1 Safety Review Meets Critical Human Space Flight Requirements
The Orion crew exploration vehicle has successfully completed the Phase 1 Safety Review of NASA’s Human Rating Requirements for space exploration in low Earth orbit and beyond. The NASA/Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) Orion team earned the approval from NASA’s Constellation Safety & Engineering Review Panel (CSERP) upon completion of the review, an essential requirement for the Orion program to move forward to the Critical Design Review and Phase 2 Safety Review.
The safety review process is a rigorous and exhaustive look at the design and operational concepts to assure that all requirements have been adequately met. System safety requirements address potentially catastrophic failures that could result in loss of crew or loss of mission during launch, ascent to orbit, approach and docking to the International Space Station, re-entry, landing, and recovery operations. Thoroughly reviewing spacecraft designs and operations for possible causes of such catastrophic failures, and designing appropriate mitigations for them, is a critical part of NASA’s human rating program.
“Completing this significant safety review puts Orion well down the road in satisfying the requirements to minimize the nation’s gap in human space flight,” said Paul Benfield, Lockheed Martin Integrated Reliability & Safety Manager for the Orion Program. “NASA’s current human rating standards include stringent requirements and thorough procedures developed from the best practices of NASA’s past 50 years of human spaceflight.”
Benfield noted that human rating a vehicle for beyond low Earth orbit (LEO) is particularly challenging given the greater autonomy of such a mission, the extended mission durations, and increased time to return to Earth. This Phase 1 Safety milestone covers the requirements for Orion missions in LEO as well as sortie missions to the moon. The design enables a six-month on-orbit duration which is vital to assure return capability of the space station crew, as well as support autonomous lunar orbit operations. This long duration design far exceeds the one- to two-week capabilities offered by other potential providers.
“Human rating a spacecraft is not a feature you can just simply add on once the vehicle is designed,” explained Benfield. “It is a process that requires endurance and attention to detail to ensure that safety is driven into every aspect of the vehicle design and operations from the beginning. Optimal safety and reliability is strategically and systematically incorporated into the vehicle from day one, concurrent with critical trade decisions considering vehicle mass and cost.”
Lockheed Martin is the prime contractor to NASA for the Orion crew exploration vehicle – the nation’s next generation spacecraft for future exploration throughout our solar system. The Orion spacecraft is comprised of a crew module for crew and cargo transport; a service module for propulsion, electrical power and fluids storage; a spacecraft adapter for securing it to the launch vehicle, and a launch abort system that will significantly improve crew safety.
The Orion crew exploration vehicle is at the peak of its development phase, which has spurred several new technologies and innovations in composites, structures, avionics and thermal protection systems. The spacecraft is on schedule to complete the Critical Design Review in 2011 which will put Orion on the path for flight to low Earth orbit as early as 2013, provided appropriate funding is approved in the near future.
The Lockheed Martin Orion Project office leads the industry team that includes major subcontractors as well as a network of minor subcontractors and small businesses working at 88 facilities in 28 states. In addition, the program contracts with more than 500 small businesses across the United States through its expansive supply chain network.
Headquartered in Bethesda, Md., Lockheed Martin is a global security company that employs about 136,000 people worldwide and is principally engaged in the research, design, development, manufacture, integration and sustainment of advanced technology systems, products and services. The Corporation reported 2009 sales of $45.2 billion. http://www.lockheedmartin.com


Dumpstaphunk @ Rocking The Docks, Lewes, DE – 08.23.23
September 29, 2023 | Concert Photography
Dumpstaphunk closed out the Rocking the Docks concert series in style on August 23rd 2023 in Lewes, Delaware.
I never saw Dumpstaphunk before, or most of the bands on Rocking the Docks and I thoroughly enjoyed all the shows this Summer. Each show provided different style of music and having Dumpstaphunk finish off the series was a great way to end it. They were phunky good fun and fun to take pictures of as well. I liked how the photos came out at night but just personally preference I guess.
Thanks to Matt for giving me this opportunity to do something cool this Summer and get back into the music photography game. Can’t wait for next summer’s series!

Storm The Train Review
Can Storm The Train offer a genuine challenge to the endless running heavyweights on iPhone and iPad?
Run to the right, shoot vampires, zombies, robots, werewolves, bigger robots and a few other enemies, jump between trains, have boss fights, pick up other guns… yes, Storm The Train ticks enough boxes for us to have been interested in it before playing. And to be honest we still are – we just feel a bit underwhelmed by the whole experience.
It’s a decent enough game, with responsive (configurable) controls, an attractive art style and the ability to unlock new elements to keep you playing longer – though obviously if you want to do this in a reasonable amount of time it means paying for unlocks.
Storm The Train conjures up images of countless other smartdevice games, but one that kept on popping up was Jetpack Joyride. Of course, this is fine company for any game to keep, but when it’s more down to the general look of the game, the collecting and upgrading of items, gadgets and even clothing and even how coins are laid out in the game world (forming arrows and initials, for example), you realise it’s more just a few derived elements being used uncreatively rather than inspiration being drawn.
And that’s Storm The Train’s main failing: it feels in no way inspirational; in no way like a game you simply have to play, that you would go out and recommend to friends. It feels like just another forgettable – though fun – experience to add to the pile of forgettable experiences.
Does what it does solidly, but unspectacularly. It is free, though.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch stamp set bundle from the upcoming September-December 2023 Mini Catalog to create my card to share with you today.
I used the Stampin’ Up! Sweet Citrus stamp set and coordinating Sweet Citrus Hybrid Embossing Folder to create a card for the Sunday Stamps color challenge this week.
I couldn’t help myself…I had to use the new Autumn Leaves stamp set bundle from the upcoming Stampin’ Up! September-December 2023 Mini Catalog to make another fall card. I particularly love the sentiments in this stamp set…but I’m a little biased since I helped to design it as my $1M sales milestone stamp set.
I’m sharing a few projects created by some of my very talented Stampin’ Up! team members with you all today. Not everything used on the projects is 100% current Stampin’ Up! items, but I hope that you will find inspiration in their beautiful work!
I used the Stampin’ Up! Inked & Tiled stamp set to create my project for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We’ve got a color challenge this week and this is what I made for it.
I got my July Paper Pumpkin Kit from Stampin’ Up! in the mail a couple of days ago and I couldn’t wait to put it together! It was a summer themed fun fold kit and the cards are awesome!


We're all in this together: Barefoot David Cameron 'chillaxes' in the sunshine at 'Poshstock' festival... but what's going on with those knock-off sunglasses?
- Prime Minister attends Cornbury Music Festival in Cotswolds with his family
- Went barefoot as he strolled around festival site in blazing sunshine
- Cameron spotted wearing a pair of fake Ray-Ban sunglasses at the event
- A pair of the 'Ray-Beri' brand shades fetches just £1.99 on eBay
- The family-friendly festival is known as 'Poshstock' thanks to its popularity with the Chipping Norton set
He is known for his love of 'chillaxing', and David Cameron looked particularly laid-back today as he soaked up the sun with his family at the Cornbury Music Festival in the Cotswolds.
However, the Prime Minister raised eyebrows with his choice of attire as he walked around the site barefoot and appeared to be sporting a pair of fake Ray-Ban sunglasses - suggesting that he may have fallen victim of the government's austerity measures.
Mr Cameron donned some black plastic 'Ray-Beri' sunglasses to the festival, which has become known as 'Poshstock' after the Tory leader and other members of the 'Chipping Norton set' became regular attendees.
Kicking back: David Cameron, who is known for his love of 'chillaxing', went barefoot as he navigated the grounds of the Cornbury festival in the Cotswolds
Cost-effective: The Prime Minister sported a pair of knock-off Ray-Ban sunglasses at the event
Bargain: The 'Ray-Beri' shades fetch as little as £1.99 on eBay compared to more than £120 for real Ray-Bans
The knock-off sunglasses fetch as little as £1.99 on auction site eBay, while original Ray-Bans cost upwards of £120.
Mr Cameron, who earns £142,500 per year, caused controversy at last year's festival after he was spotted chatting with his former spin doctor Andy Coulson.
Rebekah Brooks, a friend of the Prime Minister, also attended in 2012. The former Sun editor and her husband Charlie stand accused of conspiracy to pervert the course of justice in relation to the investigation into the phone-hacking scandal. Both have denied wrongdoing.
Sporting a black polo shirt with khaki shorts and flip-flops this afternoon, Mr Cameron was joined by Samantha and their three children on the second day of the three-day event on the Great Tew Estate, in his Witney constituency.
Family outing: The Prime Minister attends the festival every year with his wife Samantha and children
Sunshine: David Cameron holds a pair of sandals as his daughter grips onto his arm at the festival
The Camerons - along with their children Nancy, Arthur and Florence - shared a private lunch with the estate’s owners before heading to the main arena at the festival.
The Conservative leader was then seen admiring a stall of colourful tutus with eldest daughter Nancy before the family were whisked away from the festival’s campsite.
The festival boasts music across four stages and also has an exclusive VIP area.
On the festival’s website, the 'eclectic and eccentric' event is described as a 'dynamic summer festival disguised as a country fayre - a lovingly crafted, top notch, very English open air party, tailor-made for the whole family'.
VIP: The Prime Minister shared a private lunch with the estate's owners before heading to the main arena at the festival
Shopping: Samantha and the children were seen browsing the festival's many stalls, including one featuring colourful tutus
The site adds: 'Like the best of England, Cornbury is eccentric, charming and irresistible - a homespun melting pot where music-lovers share pies and a glass of champagne with superstars, toffs, rockers, crooners, Morris dancers, farmers, urbanites, fashionistas, gourmet chefs and the little old ladies who make exceptional cakes.'
Actress Tina Hobley - who recently announced she would be leaving TV drama Holby City - was also spotted among festival-goers.
Weekend tickets to the festival, headlined by Keane, cost £165 without camping, while individual day tickets for Sunday's entertainment cost £85 each for adults and £20 each for children.

Happy Tuesday everyone!! I hope y'all had a nice weekend. What a busy weekend! Friday night Ruy and I went CNA, one of the language schools in town, for a Pizza Rodizio. A "rodizio" pretty much means "all you can eat". Then on Saturday night we went to our friends Cris and Baron for one of his gourmet dinners. Baron loves to cook and he did not let us down. Salmon, asparagus risotto, and potatoes. YUM!
We stayed until 2 am and I woke up on Sunday with whatever I was battling two weeks ago. Ugh! Doctor tomorrow!! So I did a lot of coloring on Sunday for today's project.
Since it's Tuesday.....there is a new challenge over at the Stamp Ink Paper Challenge Blog! This week's Challenge #63 is "Wonderful Wings".
I used a digi stamp called Bugfihappiness by Bugaboo Stamps. When you buy this digi, you get several files. One is the image without the phrase. I love digi files because you can make them any size you want. I made this project 7" square and is meant to be a "home decor" piece - for a shelf or wall. I am also in love with image because it reminds me so much of many of the images I used to get from Outlines Rubber Stamps and do in 3D.
The first thing I did was to size this in Word to 8" x 8". With my margins, I knew it would print at 7". I printed it 3 times on good quality white cardstock. One print will be my base. Using the other two, I cut the various flowers in different layers. I knew I was going to pop dot them and make the project 3D so you want each layer to be cut differently.
For example - the flower in the lower right corner has 3 layers. The bottom layer, which is the layer printed on the cardstock. Then I cut two additional layers from the other 2 print outs -
After I did all my cutting, I pulled out my Sharpies and colored everything in - the base piece and all the different layered pieces. Then, working flower by flower, I applied pop dots to each of the layers and layered them on each other. I then went back and applied some Stickles in various colors on the flowers to add some bling.
Here are some close up shots of some of the flowers with the layers -
Then I die cut the Home Sweet Home die by Spellbinders - twice. Once out of plain purple fun foam and again out of purple glittered fun foam. I adhered the glittered fun foam to the plain fun foam and then glued them to the front. I then colored another of the butterflies and adhered this to the front using pop dots.
The last things I did were to go back and add additional Stickles to the butterfly wings and a few other areas I missed the first time.
I hope you enjoyed this piece. It was nice to make something other than a card for a change. LOL. Using digi stamps gives you so many options. Also, Bugaboo Stamps has an amazing amount of really affordable digi stamps to get you started. If you want to make a card or project for this challenge, you have until Sunday, September 4th, at 8:00 pm.
Click HERE to be taken to the challenge page with all the info.
Would love to know what you think of the project. Feel free to leave comments below! I do answer all my comments. And....as always.....until next time -

Hello everyone!! Did you know that today is National Dog Day? I didn't either until I started to see all these posts on Facebook and Instagram. In honor of today...and because I freakin LOVE dogs (all animals really)....and we have 6 dogs...I thought I would post 2 of my favorite photos of the dogs -
|Sasha, the Pit, who is 5 years old and, unfortunately, does not play nice with the other 5. So she stays with us in the store.|
If you follow me on Instagram or Facebook, I will posting a few other photos of the beasts. LOL
Now, for today's card. Today is the last day to enter a card in the Retro Rubber's Challenge No. 45 - Sketch Challenge! I already entered a baby boy card and today I wanted to show a step by step for a baby girl card.
I started with a top folding A2 white card base and covered the front with a piece of designer paper from the Nana's Nursery Baby Girl stack by DCWV. I cut a strip of dark pink cardstock, 5 1/2" x 1" and a piece of light pink cardstock, 5 1/2" x 7/8". I adhered the light pink cardstock to the dark pink, adhered them to the card front, and the stamped the phrase from the Cart Pals: Baby set by Clear & Simple Stamps.
Next was to stamp a few images from the same Cart Pals: Baby set - the wagon, the rabbit, and the presents with a rabbit on top. Had my Scan N Cut cut them out (or you can fussy cut them). Then, using Stitched Circle Layers by Memory Box, I cut 2 circles - larger one from the dark pink cardstock and the smaller one from the light pink cardstock. Then I colored in the images, adhered them to the light pink circle, which I adhered to the dark pink circle, which I adhered to the card front, next to the phrase.
Last think was to glue some light pink and yellow paper flowers to each side of the circles.
Done! Just as simple as the boy card. You still have time to enter a card in the challenge. Just click HERE for all the info on the Retro Rubber Challenge Blog. Until next time -

Hello everyone! The other day I talked about a class I gave in Araras, Sao Paulo, at an English school called Wizard. OMG! It was so much fun and everyone at the school is so freakin cool! About 50 kids came with their dads, one with his Uncle, and one with her Aunt, to make a "passport" of the fun things they would be doing over the next few months. I cut all the pieces for each kit but the kids put them together and then I showed them how to use rubber stamps to decorate the inside. Honestly, I do not know who had more fun - me, the other teachers, the kids, or the dads. LOL
I have to be honest - the faces on some of the parents - so proud of the kids, working with their kids on the projects...well, it was a great day that I will remember for a long time.
Here is the kit I prepared for the 60 kids -
Here I am with all the teachers that helped me -
|Angela, Ednoélio (Junior), Me, Luciana, Jéssica, and Maria|
Although everyone helped me out A LOT...I have to send a huge thanks to Ednoélio and Luciana for really helping out all day. Luciana even took me around the town when we had a break to see the lake, the old buildings. It's a cool town and they even have - not 1 - but 2 - Chinese Restaurants. I am totally moving there.
But this never would have happened if it wasn't for these two ladies - Caroline, the owner of this Wizard school, and Gisele, the Manager of this Wizard School in Araras. Gisele basically would not leave me alone until I agreed to do it!! LOL
|Me with Caroline and Gisele|
A few more photos of me helping with the passport -
And this is me with one of the funniest kids in the group - Joáo Paulo! He wanted a selfie with me. He was such a goofball (like me) that when he clicked the phone, we both made funny faces without telling each other that we were going to do it. LOL
I hope you enjoyed this little look at my dad with these amazing kids!! Until next time -

Hello everyone!! Happy Hump Day! The week is almost over. LOL. Today I wanted to show you a card I made for the Retro Rubber Challenge Blog. This week's Challenge 45 is a sketch challenge -
I had so much fun with this sketch. I needed to make a baby boy card so I pulled out this set called Cart Pals: Baby by Clear & Simple Stamps. I think I have owned this set for over 3 years now and am just getting to ink it up. It's a great set and since this sketch is so easy, I plan on making a baby girl card and a few others with this set.
(A side note here - Clear & Simple is having a "retiring" party and this set is one of the sets retiring. It normally sells for $24 but is on on sale for $16.80. Once the retiring sets are gone, they will be gone. So if you like this set, grab it. You can check out all of the retiring items HERE. Also, I earn nothing if you make a purchase. I am just passing along some great savings to my followers).
Back to the card - I started with a top folding A2 card base of white cardstock. To the front I adhered a piece of decorative paper from the My Baby Boy paper pad by American Crafts.
Then I did all my stamping and die cutting. First thing I did was to stamp the baby toys, the wagon, and the bear from the Cart Pals: Baby set and then I had my Scan N Cut cut them out for me (or you can fussy cut). I also die cut a few of the smallest star from Pierced Stars out of dark blue glitter fun foam and two different sized circles using Stitched Circle Layers - the larger circle from navy blue cardstock, the smaller circle from white cardstock.
I cut a strip of the same navy blue cardstock, 5 1/2" x 1" and a piece of white cardstock, 5 1/2" x 7/8". I adhered the white cardstock to the navy blue and then adhered them to the card front. Then I adhered the white stitched circle to the navy blue, which I adhered over the strip. Then I stamped the phrase "Welcome Baby Boy".
Next I colored in the 3 images using Copic Markers and adhered the toys and the bear behind the wagon so it looks as if they are sitting in the wagon. Then I adhered this to the center of the white circle. Final steps were to adhere the 3 stars around the front and apply some Glossy Accents to the bottle to give it a glass look.
That's it. Done!! I really love this sketch. With one piece of patterned paper, an image in the circle (for any holiday or occasion) and a phrase....and you are done! Easy to pump out a bunch of these at one time. I hope you can find some time to enter a card of your own in the challenge - click HERE for all the info!! Until next time -

Hello everyone!! I needed to take some time off to prepare for a project I did this past Friday at a school near here. I will try to have some photos in the next blog post.
I am so proud and happy that Brasil won their FIRST Gold Medal for Soccer while the country was hosting the Olympics!! It was a nail biter of a game. And I have to say, after all the bad media and problems facing Brasil, that the games were a huge success. There were a few bumps but that always happens in the host city!
Now...for today's card! Since today is Tuesday that means there is a new challenge over at the Stamp Ink Paper Challenge Blog! This week's Challenge No. 62 is a sketch -
To make this card I started with a side folding A2 white cardstock base. I cut a piece of black cardstock, 4 1/4" x 5 1/2", embossed it with the Chevron Background embossing folder, and adhered it to the card front.
Then I found a cool patterned paper of Polaroid frames from the My Mind's Eye Record It! 6x6 pad. I cut a piece 3 1/2" x 4 1/2", adhered it to a piece of black fun foam the same size, which I then adhered to the card front.
|(Sorry for the blurry photo)|
Next I used 2 dies (the 3.2 and 2.8) from Stitched Circle Layers. I die cut a piece of black cardstock using the 3.2" die. Then, using the 2.8" die, I cut a piece of silver cardstock. I adhered double sided tape to the back of the silver circle to make adhering it later easier.
Then I placed the Smile die over the circle and die cut it again. Then I placed the whole piece in the Cameras embossing folder and embossed the piece. (Another reason to use the double sided tape on the back).
Working slowly and in sections, I removed the tape backing and adhered the silver circle in the center of the black circle. I did NOT adhere the word "smile". I then die cut the word Smile again out of orange cardstock and adhered this into the silver circle.
Final step was to adhere the circle to the front of the card.
That's it. Done! I really love this sketch because you can use so many different stamps or dies in that center circle. Well, I hope you enjoyed this card. You can enter a card of your own in the challenge HERE and have until 8:00 pm (EST) on Sunday August 28th to do so! Until next time -

Happy Monday everyone!! I hope everyone had a great weekend. Although I am still trying to get rid of this upper respiratory issue, I did manage to go to a friend's birthday party on Sunday night. The music was loud, the food was amazing - BBQ Boar, lots of Sushi and a ton of beer (none for me), and lots of people having fun. I even made my first Strawberry Shortcake, that I brought with me. Yay!
Today I wanted to share a quick card I made for someone in town. She asked me to make a card for her husband who owns a lighting store and who she says is "the light of her life". I had literally JUST bought a digi stamp from Bugaboo Stamps that would be perfect! It's called "make it snappy you light up my life".
When you buy the digi it comes in several formats and the image is separate from the phrase box. One option is to print the phrase box empty, which is what I used on this card. I printed the image of the lightbulbs twice and heat set it. Then I used a mix of Tombow and Copic markers to color them in. For the metal part that goes into the socket, I used a Wink of Stella Silver Glitter Pen and over all the lightbulbs, I used a Wink of Stella Clear Glitter Brush Marker.
Come on...we need these bulbs to be shining as much as possible!! LOL
I then made a 5 1/4" square card base of white cardstock, to which I adhered a piece of decorative paper from a pad called Beautiful Moments by Carta Bella. Then I adhered the lightbulbs to the upper section of the card.
On the second printing, I colored in the center of two of the bulbs and the socket section on the other two bulbs, cut them out, adhered to the front with pop dots, colored them in and then added colored stickles. (More bling!)
Lastly I trimmed the black phrase box, printed out "You Light Up My Life" in Portuguese, trimmed the phrase, layered it on a piece of black cardstock and then adhered this below the bulbs. DONE!
I hope you enjoyed this quick post with a fun card. If you are looking for adorable and affordable digis, check out Bugaboo! (I earn nothing for mentioning her. Just sharing what I love). Also, sign up for her newsletter and follow her on FB. She gives amazing sales and you can earn points. Until next time -

Hello everyone. Me again! Two posts in one day - I know, crazy!! But I wanted to share with you a card I made for this week's Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #248. You have until 2pm tomorrow to upload a card so maybe, if I post it today, someone will see it and try to make something too!
Here is the sketch to work with -
While I was making my "Jake & Chloe Lemonade Scene", I was going through my stash of Clear & Simple Stamps and came across this older set called "Martini Darling" and then, in another box, I came across this phrase from Rubbernecker Stamps called "Dirty Martini". I knew I would have to use these two sets together soon and put them away for that day.
Well, today was that day. LOL Unfortunately the Martini Darling set has been retired by Clear & Simple but the phrase by Rubbernecker is available but in a different format - HERE.
I started with a top folding A2 white cardstock base. I adhered a piece of decorative paper from Urban Traveler by Simple Stories. I wanted a darker , edgier paper to reflect a "martini" mood in a dimly lit bar.
Then I cut a piece of white cardstock, 4" x 5 1/4", and stamped "Splatter It" by Unity Stamp Co. with an "Ice" Color Pop Ink by Clearsnap. (Both the stamp and the ink are designed by Susan K. Weckesser, Inc. and I am in love with these inks lately). This "Splatter It" is also a GREAT stamp to use when you want a little something thing in the background without having to go all crazy.
Next I stamped the two ladies from the "Martini Darling" set, cut them with my Scan N Cut, and then colored them in with Copic markers. I paper pierced the pants on one and the dress on the other using other decorative paper in my stash.
I adhered one to the left side of the cardstock over the "Splatter It" image. Then I adhered the other image so it overlapped the first just a bit. I DID NOT glue down the purse because I wanted to be able to lift it for the phrase.
I stamped the phrase and adhered it under the image. Where the purse is, it is not glued gown. You can understand the phrase but can also lift the purse to make sure you are correct. LOL
I then cut a piece of white fun foam and adhered it to the cardstock with the images. Then I adhered both to the card front. DONE!
I hope you've enjoyed this fun card. I hope you can find some time to make a card for the current Freshly Made Sketch Challenge. Just click HERE to be taken to the post! Until next time -

Happy Sunday everyone. I hope everyone is having a great weekend. We went to see the cherry blossom trees blooming yesterday in Sao Paulo. It was a lot of fun but very crowded. We even took Bella and she loved not only the car, but the whole day.
Wanted to share another quick card I made the other day for this week's Stamp Ink Paper Challenge - Funny/Punny cards. You have until tonight at 8:00 pm Eastern time to get one entered!!
I started with two pieces of this blue paper I had in my stash. I loved that it already looked distressed and didn't need to do much with them. I started by using Ocean Border by Impression Obsession. There are two dies in the set that coordinate with each other and I die cut two pieces of the same paper each with a different die. Then I distress the edge for the top die with Broken China distress ink. This way there will be some dimension between the waves.
Then I stamped and die cut the sailboat from Float My Boat by Lawn Fawn. I adhered the boat at top of the front of my A2 card front and then adhered the piece of blue cardstock that has the distressed edge on it.
Next I colored in my sailboat with some Tombow markers and adhered the other piece of blue cardstock to the card front just under the first piece.
Next I pulled out a set by Rubbernecker Stamps, which I believe is called Let's Do Lunch. I have had this set in my stash for years and, unfortunately, it is no longer being made. But I think you can find it for sale online or you can use this idea with other fish images out on the market. Using Versafine Onyx Black ink, I stamped the trio of fish on the right side, the worm on the hook as if it was coming off the sailboat, and the phrase.
Then I colored the images in with Tombow Markers. I also stamped some of the plants on the bottom and colored those in also.
Lastly, I added some stickles to the fish, the leaves on the plants, and the sailboat to give some extra texture to the card. Done! I love this set and am surprised the stopped making it. It's adorable!!
Well, I hope y'all have a fantastic rest of the weekend! If you get a card made in time for the Stamp Ink Paper Challenge - just click HERE to upload it. Good luck. Until next time -

Are you experiencing clinical depression? If so, you are not the only one and are amongst the countless Americans pestered by this state of mind problem. A recent write-up shared brand-new statistical details regarding how anxiety in the U.S. gets on the rise.
Obviously the medical diagnosis of depression increased 33% in between years 2011 and 2014. (1) Formerly, The National Center for Health Stats reported that antidepressant use jumped 65% in 15 years between 1999 as well as 2014: from 7.7% of Americans to 12.7% for those 12 and older, twice as high for females than guys, and 19.1% for those 60 and also older. (2 ).
The good news, they state, is that “global clinical depression testings” are taking place much more consistently, which this mood condition is no more in the closet: people are discussing it as well as treating it … with pharmaceutical medications.
I am left to ask yourself why this depressive state has grown by leaps and also bounds? For one thing, there’s a lot that has changed in the world because January 1, 2000. It’s enough to make anyone depressed. I possibly missed something, below, yet here are the examples I can recall:.
September 11, 2001.
The Patriot Act.
Continuous terrorist attacks both domestic as well as worldwide.
Mass murders at schools.
Raising opioid addiction and also deaths.
Multiple wars between East.
Extreme all-natural calamities: fires, quakes, hurricanes, tidal waves, flooding, snowstorms as well as dry spells.
The Fukushima nuclear calamity of 2011.
The economic crisis of 2008.
Earnings that don’t match the cost-of-living.
The dissentious presidential political election of 2016 as well as presidency of Donald Trump.
Of course, this list does not include difficult personal scenarios the majority of us experience every so often.
Pharmaceutical companies are the huge champions.
Though the majority of the antidepressant-package inserts warn of one or another side-effect, pharmaceutical antidepressants are the common ‘most likely to” service as well as dealing device for clinical depression. Furthermore, besides the side effects, lots of people report difficulty in getting off antidepressants when they prepare to do so.
Anxiety has actually been linked to increased neuro-inflammation. It prevails understanding since inflammation is a forerunner to many different condition processes.


Last week both Guillermo Garcia Lopez and Nicolas Almagro were very successful. Guillermo managed to overcome the big serving American, John Isner in San Jose, but then lost to Andy Roddick 7-6 6-1 in the semi-finals. Theres no shame in losing to Roddick, who went on to win the tournament, so GGL should be very happy with a great weeks work, and hopefully we can see a rapid rise in the rankings soon. Almagro wasn't so lucky, having to withdraw against Juan Ignatio Chela 6-3 2-1
He had a pretty good week anyway.
As for this week's action, no Spanish players contested the event in Memphis. In Zagreb, Garcia Lopez drew 5th seed, Marin Cilic in the first round. It's never easy playing someone in their home country, and GGL succumbed to the pressure, with Cilic winning 6-2 6-2. Hopefully he can have a nice rest now, and get back into a winning routine next week.
There were quite a few more Spaniards playing in Acapulco this week. Santiago Ventura was successful in the first round against a junior qualifier, Cesar Ramirez, thrashing him 6-3 6-1. Santiago was not good enough for top seed David Nalbandian however, going down 6-2 6-3. Albert Montanes and Marcel Granollers-Pujol both won their first round matches against Andreev and Bruno Rodriguez respectively, but when they met in the 2nd round, Marcel emerged victorious winning 6-2 7-6. However he then fell to Jose Acasuso, 7-6 6-3. Oscar Hernandez also failed to get past Acasuso, losing in the first round. Second seed, Carlos Moya, beat Werner Eschauer 6-4 6-4, but lost to Nicolas Massu in the second round 6-4 6-2. And yet again, Nicolas Almagro has done brilliantly. In the first round, he beat Jiri Vanek 6-1 6-2, in the second round he won against Filippo Volandri 6-3 6-3, and in the quarters he avenged Moya's loss, beating Massu 4-6 6-3 6-3. For the third week in a row, I'll have to get back to you next week about the rest of Almagro's results.
This week has been a rather quiet week in Spanish tennis, so I'll close with a bit of offcourt news. Juan Carlos Ferrero was with David Ferrer, practising together in Valencia. Ferrero owns the tournament there, which has recently undergone construction to improve the facilities there, and both Ferrero and Ferrer have been present to launch the facilities, and also to promote tennis (which is growing in popularity) in Valencia.
Check back next week for more news. Bye

Welcoming a four-legged fuzz ball into your home is cause for celebration indeed! Did you know that kids who grow up with a dog are 50% less likely to develop asthma? There is also evidence to show that your little ones could do better at reading too. What’s more, both kids and grown-ups tend to report lower stress and increased fitness levels when there’s a doggo in residence.
Once you have chosen the right dog for your family, it is not just about cuddles, walkies and heart-melting puppy eyes (although there will be lots of those). Taking good care of your new friend is vital, and one of the most important things to get right is their daily meals. Take a walk in any major supermarket, and you will be bowled over by the amount of dog food on offer in the pet aisle. Head to specialised pet shops or take a look online, and your options can feel like they are endless.
With so much to choose from, it can be daunting to try and craft the ideal diet for your pup.
Read on to learn more about all the different options and also check out our tips for owning a dog.
The most commonly found dog foods tend to fall in these categories and are suitable for adult dogs, senior dogs and puppies.
By far the cheapest and most convenient dog food out there is dry food (also known as kibble). This type of food is made up of dry, biscuit-like pellets. With a long shelf life and no preparation, it’s easy to see why it has traditionally been the most popular option. However, there is growing concern among the dog community that the highly processed nature of dry food makes it a poor choice for your dog’s health.
Cat owners will be very familiar with wet food! Wet food comes in cans or pouches and is often found in chunk form or a pate form (which normally needs to be mashed up by you). As you might imagine, wet food has a much higher water content than dry food. As a result, wet food is a great choice for dogs who don’t visit their water bowl enough; however, the higher water content replaces nutrition and calories, so you may need to feed Fido more to get him the nutrients he needs.
Wet food is pasteurised, so it is shelf-stable (while sealed) like dry food. The pasteurisation process involves incredibly hot temperatures, and there are concerns that this destroys the natural goodness in the food.
Steadily gaining in popularity, a raw diet is one of the latest trends in canine nutrition. The thinking is that the diet of domesticated dogs should more closely resemble what their wild counterparts would have eaten. For example, a good quality beef raw dog food will contain about 80% meat, offal and bones. Because dogs can also benefit from certain fruits and vegetables, you will also find these in the ingredient lists of raw diets.
A large driving factor for this type of food has been concerns about the processes needed to make wet and dry food mentioned above. As the name suggests, raw food is minimally processed and isn’t cooked. This type of food is typically frozen at the source; portions can then be defrosted overnight in the fridge for you to serve up to your fur baby.
Probably the least well known of your dog food options, fresh food, as the name implies, is food that is made fresh. While a handful of niche companies sell fresh food, it is much more of a DIY option. It is the most labour intensive of options, but the benefit is that you know exactly what your dog is getting and can tailor it to suit their needs.
If you regularly cook for yourself, why not pair Rover’s meals with your own? The first recipe in this list gives directions for a tasty human and dog dinner!
Owners of dogs with severe allergies, health concerns or complex nutritional needs may feel most comfortable with this option, but it will require some serious kitchen time as it is a bit more complicated than simply serving up a plate of boiled chicken.
Lastly, and in some ways, most importantly, you need to be aware of the differences between complete and complementary foods. Pet food is almost as strictly regulated as human foods are. The European Pet Food Industry is responsible for ensuring dog food meets certain standards in terms of content and labelling.
Complete foods have been judged to be nutritionally balanced and will give your dog all the nutrients they need without having to feed them anything else. Feeding a complete food gives you peace of mind that your loveable ball of fur is getting everything they need. Using your dog’s weight can calculate how much food they will require each day as part of a balanced diet.
Complementary foods do not meet the same nutritional requirements of complete foods. Items such as treats, meal toppers and mixer biscuits fall into this category. Fed on their own, your dog’s diet will lack certain essential nutrients and vitamins. Much like human treats, treats for your pupper could contain high levels of sugar and additives that could cause problems down the road if they have too many of them. Foods labelled as complimentary must be served in conjunction with something else to keep your loyal friend healthy.
If you aren’t sure what the right food is for your dog, why not ask for advice from your vet or even the organisation or breeder from whom you got your dog. You might want to seek out a veterinary nutritionist to craft a custom plan for you if your dog has complex needs.
Whatever you decide to serve up for their dinner, follow good hygiene rules. Use clean bowls, properly store and prepare all food, and make sure there is access to clean and fresh water.

Written by Wong Choon Mei, Politics Now!
KUALA LUMPUR (Politics Now!) – All hell is about to break loose on Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim’s government. A livid opposition, determined to ‘expose’ him for luring 10 of their MPs, is about to make public accusations of illicit cash, projects, threats and the roles played by a shadowy figure nicknamed ‘Datuk Botak’ and Anwar’s own scandal-tainted ex-political secretary now alleged to be gathering ‘intelligence’ for him.
“There is a video showing the identity of a ‘Datuk Botak’… who played a role in bribing and threatening opposition MPs to support the prime minister,” Wan Fayhsal, the opposition MP for Machang, told a press conference in Parliament today (Nov 14).
“The video also explains the role of the prime minister’s former political secretary Farhash in this matter.”
PLANNED MOVE: ‘WE HAVE THE FACTS & A CASE’
Wan Fayhsal, who hails from the Bersatu party that recently saw four MPs declare support for Anwar in exchange for federal money, blamed the two men for hatching the plot against the opposition so as to prolong the ineffective Anwar’s hold on the PM’s post.
He was referring to Farhash Wafa Salvador Rizal Mubarak, a member of Anwar’s PKR party who was rewarded with two plum corporate positions soon after last year’s general election – whilst ‘Datuk Botak’ is believed to be a business tycoon with links to Umno.
“It is clear there is a planned move by the prime minister and the leadership of the government to bribe and offer incentives through promises of financial assistance to Bersatu MPs. Both for their constituencies and for them personally,” Malaysiakini reported Wan Fayhsal as saying.
“This video has also gone viral on Facebook and TikTok, and the MACC should be aware and take action because it is clear that the four Bersatu MPs have been pressured and threatened with action by the MACC if they refuse to give their support.”
“This is clearly a misuse of power by the prime minister and a form of corruption and this act also insults the provisions of the Federal Constitution regarding the law of party jumping and contradicts democratic practices.”
Wan Fayhsal’s bombshell comes even as Anwar’s trusted lieutenant and Home Minister, Saifuddin Nasution, claimED no reports had been lodged with the police or the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC).
“A police report has already been made by Bersatu Youth at midnight last night. Some say this is empty talk and slander,” Wan Fayhsal, who is also Bersatu Youth chief, slammed Saifuddin.
“No, we have facts and a case. An MACC follow-up report will be made and a press conference will be held to explain the police report.”
ANWAR’S ‘BAD HISTORY’
If so, then the embattled Anwar may have bitten off more than he has bargained for.
Already public sentiment is swinging against him over the backdoor defections of the Bersatu four, who outraged the nation by declaring support for his ‘Madani’ government while insisting they were still loyal to Bersatu.
Their bold move to thwart the recently passed Anti-Hopping Law by tapping a loophole, as well as Anwar’s beaming acceptance and willingness to give them federal money instead of disdaining their dubious conduct, has raised question marks on Anwar’s own transparency.
The Bersatu four are Iskandar Dzulkarnain the Kuala Kangsar MP, Suhaili Abdul Rahman the Labuan MP, Mohd Azizi the Gua Musang MP and Zahari Kechik the Jeli MP.
“We have had a history where the current prime minister was charged with abuse of power when he was deputy prime minister. So it is not strange with what has happened today, the pressure given to Opposition MPs, including myself and some of my friends to support the government today, especially to the prime minister.
“Many of Bersatu MPs have been identified by operators who offer, initially development projects in their respective areas. Some are via email and some are via WhatsApp, and some have met face to face as the video of them meeting the Langkawi MP and the Jeli MP has gone viral. We have proof,” Wan Fayhsal reiterated.
10 MPs TARGETED – IT’S ‘DELIBERATE BRIBERY’
According to Malay Mail, Wan Fayhsal also claimed that the “operators” had studied the problems of each area and their potential before bombarding the MPs with their illicit offers.
“We received a call to make a meeting. There’s 10 of us have had contact with those operators. It’s not fiction,” he added.
MPs from opposition ally Pas were also allegedly targeted, including Besut’s Che Mohamad Zulkifly Jusoh.
According to Pas MP for Pendang Awang Solahuddin Hashim, who was at the presser, it is Anwar’s government that is actively enticing opposition MPs to declare support for them.
Anwar has been rebuked and accused of deliberately withholding federal funding for opposition lawmakers so that he could bend them to his will.
“This government should be strong and solid because it says it has exceeded 148. It shouldn’t be necessary. Why are these things still happening? Why? Are you not confident? (Afraid) it may fall at any time even if there is a two-thirds majority?” Awang asked.

Camping recipes need to be simple, that’s all there is to it. Even as a food blogger, the amount of time that I actually want to spend preparing food when we are camping is minimal and only when I am preparing recipes for you, my reader, do I really enjoy it.
Hey, even a food blogger wants to step away from the kitchen sometimes, especially when enjoying the great outdoors! Plus… I’m getting sad that summer is coming to an end soon, which has me wanting to cherish the time I have left with my kids at home all day. Sandwiches are perfect, you can make them healthy, fast and you are not spending too much summer time standing in your kitchen!
Lunches are usually sandwiches of some sort – I can get excited about making breakfast, I really can get into making dinner, and Lawd have mercy do I ever love desserts! – because lunch is usually the “meh” meal of the day for me.
I’ve talked about my tendency to skip lunch here in detail and camping is no different. I’d skip lunch every day if I could, but those dang children and husband of mine need feeding. Daily.
So this sandwich was something I whipped up to break up the monotony of hotdogs and grilled cheese sandwiches.
It’s simple, it’s fast and it’s easy,the perfect camping recipe. The best part – besides the fact that it’s dang tasty- is that compared to a lot of camping food, this leans onto the more healthy eating side of things, compared to *ahem* a lot of my more dessert type camping recipes. Toasting the bun and having a hot sandwich also makes this a perfect lunch for the outdoors as well, nothing heats the insides like a hot meal!
Hope you give it a whirl! Thanks for reading everyone! Do you have any favorite camping recipes to share?
