Christina Koch and Anne McClain were arranged to step outside the International Space Station (ISS) to install batteries on Friday.
But their need for medium sized suits halted the historic moment as only one was ready for use.
NASA made the decision to change the astronauts due to time and safety constraints over configuring the secondary medium-sized suit.
Male colleague Nick Hague will instead take McClain’s place to exit the ISS.
Koch will wear the only medium spacesuit which was first used by McClain on her walk with Hague last week.
McClain trained in both medium and large-sized spacesuits but only discovered on her actual spacewalk that the medium-size suit fitted her best, Nasa said.
The Astronaut is scheduled for her next spacewalk, on 8 April with David Saint-Jacques.

The Isle of Man has nabbed its first gold medal for 40 years thanks to an energetic performance by Mark Cavendish in the Men's Cycling Scratch Race.
Cavendish's performance saw Australia's Ashley Hutchinson take silver and James MacCallum from Scotland won bronze.
The 20-year-old World Madison Champion received the first gold medal for Isle of Man since the 1966 Commonwealth Games held in Kingston, Jamaica. Cavendish described his win as a "massive deal".
It took only 10 laps for Hutchinson and Cavendish to take the lead well ahead of the rest of the pack. Soon both riders, together with Timothy Gudsell, (New Zealand), MacCallum and Bell Zack from Canada, were a lap ahead, leaving the rest of the group out of medal contention.
Not only did Cavendish get the gold but he also ended Australia's reign in the event.
Australia was also pipped by Scotland, which won gold in the Men’s Team Pursuit cycling, edging out England with silver ahead of Australia in third place.
Scotland’s team of Ross Edgar, Chris Hoy and Craig Maclean recorded a time of 44.282 for the three lap sprint. England recorded a time of 44.309 and Australia 44.719 in defeating New Zealand.
After the race, Edgar described their time as “very fast”.
"I'm really happy, so happy. I can't really describe it. My family is here to see it. It's so fantastic."

A single bullet hole, preserved in a board at New Bethel Baptist Church, serves as a reminder of April 1864, when the Union army appeared in Garner.
Before they reached Cary and Morrisville, a thousand Union cavalrymen clashed with 600 Confederates on Highway 50 at Swift Creek, which was then just a path. It’s likely they kept on shooting right down Aversboro Road, today a main Garner thoroughfare.
Behind the battle lines, soldiers and statesmen recorded what they saw, heard and felt during the struggle.
Now you can hear their stories first-hand in a new musical drama, while knowing that show proceeds benefit current-day Garner nonprofit, Community of Hope.
After researching thousands of pages of diaries and first-person accounts, and consulting with local historians Ernest Dollar and Kaye Whaley, and descendants of those who fought, Garner native and playwright Tim Stevens has created War at Your Door, a musical drama depicting two dark days in Garner: April 12 and 13, 1865, just before Raleigh surrendered to Gen. William T. Sherman.
“There have been incredible surprises; I’ve been stunned by the coincidences, of how people are intertwined in the tales,” said Stevens, a Hall of Fame sportswriter who’s also credited with launching the award-winning Broadway Voices series that’s become a fixture in Garner’s arts scene.
The all-local making of War at Your Door includes modern-instrument arrangements of Civil War-era songs and an overture by Jessica Hall of The Hall Sisters, and is directed by Collin Batten, a Garner High grad who has performed with The Blue Man Group. Artwork is by artist Vincent Wood.
The play centers on a peace train sent by N.C. Gov. Zebulon B. Vance, in an effort to meet with Sherman and ensure that if the Confederates didn’t resist advancing Union armies, Raleigh would not be burned by the army as Atlanta and Columbia, S.C. had been.
“A series of 13 monologues, largely taken from the diaries, move the story along; through them we learn the characters’ stories,” Stevens said. “Widows, black, white, family traditions — it’s about the diversity of the people and how they were affected by the war.

"The government is shut down," said my lovely husband as he walked into the bedroom carrying Juno.
Juno raced across the foot of the bed and jumped up on the cat perch on the windowsill.
"Where was she last night?" I asked, "She didn't sleep here."
"She was with Ray," responded Gregg.
"WHAT?" I exclaimed in astonishment. "Where?"
"Well, not with Ray, but on the same couch. He was in his spot and she was at the other end."
"Do you think Ray knew?" I asked, curious.
"No, I don't," said Gregg.
Interesting development, I thought to myself. Juno hadn't been there when we went to bed, she must have joined the blind dog sometime in the night.
A few minutes later I dragged myself out of bed; might as well start the day since I was up anyway. Obviously thinking the same thing, Gregg followed.
I entered the kitchen trailed by the two kittens. We heard the jingle of dog tags and watched as the two cats moved to the edges of kitchen while Ray ambled through the middle wanting to go outside. As I washed the cat dishes, Harvey jumped up on the kitchen counter in anticipation of food. I took Harvey off the kitchen counter and put him on the floor, opened a can of cat food, took Harvey off the kitchen counter and put him on the floor, got a fork, took Harvey off the kitchen counter and put him on the floor, put a forkful of food in the bowl, took Harvey off the kitchen counter and put him on the floor, put another forkful of food in the bowl, picked up Harvey off the kitchen counter and pinned him under my armpit while one-handedly I tried to fill his bowl with food, then carried the one bowl and the little cat upstairs to the cat-feeding station. I deposited Harvey and went back downstairs to feed the patiently waiting Juno. I took her upstairs as well and watched as she licked her food and walked away. Juno is not as interested in the canned food. She likes her carbs.
I returned downstairs and sat on the couch to eat my breakfast and watch the morning entertainment unfold opposite me as Gregg tried to enjoy his breakfast of toast and ham. Juno wanted the toast. Ray wanted Juno or the ham, whichever came first.
I find it quite hilarious that you didn't help your lovely husband as he battled the four-leggers for his breakfast but instead took a steady succession of photographs! You crack me up!
Little Juno certainly isn't shy, is she? Gregg is SO patient!!
These photos made me laugh. You have a wonderful family of furries.
No, she turned out to be the opposite of shy. She is really keeping us laughing.
Every time I look at these photos I laugh. She is a hoot!! What a cute little character!! Makes my day, I cannot imagine how much fun she is to have around. How is Harvey? any findings on what is causing his diarrhea?? He is a cutie pie.
Juno is SO much fun to have around. Not afraid of anything.

Disclaimer: These are helpful suggestions. Even if you follow all everything in this article, it does not mean you will not be robbed. Use LocalBitcoins at your own risk. You are responsible for the protection of your money.
LocalBitcoins.com is a wonderful service that allows people to connect with each other to sell and buy bitcoin in person. The advantages of this are enormous. Unlike online exchanges, there is no waiting period. Bitcoins arrive instantly after the exchange. Exchanging in person is more anonymous since you don’t have to give sensitive private information to online exchanges. Meeting with stranger in to exchange money is not safe, if you don’t know what you are doing. I will explain the basics of how to use localbitcoins, as well as important tips for staying safe while using the service.
To use LocalBitcoins you need to sign up for account. Signing up takes seconds, all that is needed is a password, username, and email. There are several ways to buy or sell bitcoins on LocalBitcoins. The easiest way is contacting people who have already posted ad. You can click on the Sell or Buy tab at the top of the page, depending on which one you want to do, and this will bring you to a page with numerous people looking to exchange. You can tailor what you are looking for from there, but they start you off with offers from people in your local area. After finding a trade that interests you, click on the ad and tell them how much you want to sell or buy. If you are selling bitcoin, you will need to fill in your LocalBitcoins wallet with the amount you wish to sell, buyers don’t need to load any bitcoins, before you are able to contact the buyer.
Then, through LocalBitcoin’s messenger, you can arrange where to meet and what time to do the exchange. After deciding on a place and time, tips on that later in the article, head to the place at the correct time and location. The person exchanging bitcoins will need to sign into his LocalBitcoins account and click on the trade, which can be found in the dashboard.There are several ways to do it, but the person who will be selling his bitcoins will need to need to release the bitcoins when they are exchanged for cash. After both parties get what they came for, cash or bitcoin, they can go the their separate ways.
While I and many others have used LocalBitcoins without ever being robbed, it is always a good idea to use precautions when exchanging money. Being prepared, and knowing what you are doing can deter criminals from ever attempting to steal from you. Thieves, like other criminals tend to prey on the unaware because they are easier targets.
Meeting at night, when visibility is lower and less people around, is a bad idea. The best time to meet is during the daylight, around the afternoon. It might be difficult to meet at this time for some people during the weekdays and that is why weekends might be ideal.
How secure the location is very important, and obviously, wifi is a must. Five popular and safe spots to exchange bitcoin are Starbucks, McDonalds, Subway, Mom And Pa coffee shops, and restaurants. It is even better if one of these locations has or is near security guards. Shopping malls usually have security guards.
When picking where to sit, try to pick a spot that gives both of you plenty of space. A table between between both of you is the best, which allows both participants to feel comfortable.
Head to the location a little bit early, with what you will need for the exchange. Sign into your LocalBitcoins account on their phone or laptop, and be ready to release the bitcoins. It is important not to send the bitcoins until the physical exchange. Show the peirson you are exchanging with that are ready to release the bitcoins. The person exchanging fiat should count the cash and put it on the table. Check the bills to see if they counterfeit bills. If they check out, release bitcoins and take the cash.
With counterfeits being less 0.01% of U.S. paper currency in circulation, it is not a huge problem, but getting stuck with fake bills is not ideal. One way to spot a fake is to use a magnifying glass to closely analyze the bill. A easy identifier for a real bill is to look at the the rim of the portrait of the president in the middle. There should be the phrase “THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” repeated along the sides of the portrait. Another easy way to spot a fake, is to make sure the serial numbers, located in the in the left upper corner and the right lower corner, are the same. Here is a more detailed tutorial on spotting counterfeits.
It is not a good idea to stick around in the area after the exchange. Even if you do not have cash on you, it best to avoid any curious bystanders that may cause problems. On top of that, you should leave by some means other than walking – bike, car, taxi, or bus. This will ensure you will not be hassled or rob by anyone who saw the transaction.
It is not illegal in any state of the United States to exchange bitcoin, but it does not mean everything done with bitcoin is legal. Exchanging more than $10,000 can land you in trouble. Or laundering money obtained through illegal means like robbery, or selling drugs through bitcoin.
Two men from Miami, Florida faced charges for two counts of money laundering and one count of engaging in an unlicensed money servicing business after a secret service agent, working undercover, bought $55,000 worth of bitcoins, combined, from the two LocalBitcoins sellers. The secret service agent told the two sellers that he was buying bitcoins in order to launder money he got from credit card scams. Instead of the sellers stopping the exchange, and notifying the police, they decided to go through with the exchange.
A person on BitcoinTalk.org, a very popular bitcoin forum, reported his experience being tempted to break the law by an undercover cop while trying to sell bitcoins to him. While the beginning of the interaction seemed normal, towards the end of the transaction the buyer started saying strange things. According to the BitcoinTalk member, the undercover cop said, “You know, if someone needs to get hurt, I can do that.” and when the BitcoinTalk member did not take the bait, he followed up with, “Oh, ok. I can get like whatever you need though. Weed, ecstasy..whatever.” Instead of continuing the sale, the BitcoinTalk member stopped the transaction there, and said he can not legally sell bitcoins to him if he was going to use them for illegal purposes. While that was certainly a undercover cop trying to find crooked LocalBitcoins sellers, the seller never got arrested like the two other men. The reason being, he used common sense and stopped the exchange when he obviously saw that the bitcoins were going to be used for illegal purposes. If you do the same, you won’t have any problems with the law enforcement.
It is also important to make sure your bitcoins being held in LocalBitcoin’s wallet are safe. LocalBitcoin’s is a hot wallet, which makes it not too secure. A hot wallet is a bitcoin wallet that is hosted on the web. The opposite of hot wallets are cold wallets, which are stored offline and more secure. The LocalBitcoins wallet should actually be considered even less secure than regular hot wallets because you will regularly be connecting to public wifi while logged into the wallet. That is why is good idea not to store bitcoins in the wallet. Instead, only have the amount of bitcoins in the wallet that you need for the transaction.
Use LocalBitcoin’s 2-factor authentication. It is one of simplest ways to make your account secure. 2-factor authentication uses apps like Authy or Google Authenticator. These apps sync up with your LocalBitcoins account, so when you log in you will have to provide a second code, other than your password. This code is a randomly generated and temporary string of numbers provided by an 2-factor authentication app. You need to type in the 2-factor authentication code and your password each time you log in. It is almost impossible for hackers to get the 2-factor authentication code because it is randomly generated, and different each time. This makes your account a lot more secure.
Exchanging bitcoins in person is a great way to transact. No hassle signing up, more privacy and anonymous, and bitcoins are in your wallet the same day. There is the extra risk of meeting in person and getting robbed, though. While tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands have used LocalBitcoin’s without any problem from police or thieves, when dealing with money it is best to be safe rather than sorry.

Almost everything in life follows a life cycle as it grows, achieves maturity and then dies.
This is true of products, which have a product life cycle, and of businesses which have a business life cycle.
This applies to both products and to businesses .The implication of this for business is that there has to be continual development of new products for a business to remain strong. And there have to be new developments in the business itself to prevent its own decline.
It is important then for business people to be aware of the existence of the life cycle, and to know and understand at what stage in the cycle a product or business is at.
To use an analogy, the same behaviours, tools and techniques are not applicable to looking after a young child as would be used when dealing with a mature adult, and different behaviours are used when looking after an old, infirm person.
In the case of a product, a product manager can take action to extend the life of the product.
In the case of a business, a new business development manager can take action to extend the life of the business. This may involve looking for new products, or markets, or be achieved by mergers and acquisitions.
May include concept, product design, testing, market research, focus groups, and market plan. There may be redevelopment due to feedback from market research or focus groups, which will be followed by retesting.
Release of the product, often accompanied by high levels of promotion and advertising.
Sales growth ideally accelerates. Factors such as production levels, gross and net margins, flexibility on selling prices will vary according to competition and the type of product .Costs may decline as production increases, margins may also decline.
Other colours, flavours or sizes may be added to the product line, or the product may be developed by the addition of new lines, such as accessories. If successful, this is where the life cycle of the product can be expanded by the product manager, who can produce a range of products based on a successful product.
The product will reach the peak of its cycle, as product managers are unable to extend it further. It may remain at this point for some time, or may decline sharply. The reason for, and speed of decline will depend on the product. It may be the technology is out of date, or the product is overtaken by new products.
The Product has reached or passed its point of highest demand. It may remain steady at a reduced level, or decline further, until it is obsolete.
The product managers role is to “own “the product, they will create and optimise the life of the product. Product Management is defined differently in nearly every company because is the role is quite wide ranging. Different product types, industry sectors, and company needs define the job responsibilities.
There may also be other roles and titles that overlap or are included in the Product Manager’s role. One of these is Product Marketing. In larger companies, both Product Management and Product Marketing roles will exist, one to create the product and the other to help sell it. In smaller companies, the Product Manager may perform both activities, or there may be a marketing department that covers all activities.
In a small company the business owner or manager will usually fulfil the role of product manager or champion, taking the product to market themselves.
The Product Manager may intervene in the life cycle at a number of points, to alter its natural trajectory.
Prior to launch, they may alter the product specification in response to poor test marketing.
Once launched, if a product does not produce early sales growth, it may be withdrawn from the market, revamped and launched.
During the growth cycle, adjustments can be made to marketing plans, packaging, distribution, advertising, pricing.
In the latter stages of the cycle the product manager will make the decision to continue to promote a mature or declining product, perhaps by refreshing it , and whether it is more economical to withdraw the product, retire or replace it.
In the case of a successful product the offer can be expanded in a number of ways, by adding sizes and colours for clothing, flavours for foodstuffs. Or there may be a complete range expansion.
A great example of this is Mattel’s Barbie doll. The original product was launched in 1959 as a single doll .Then different hair colours were offered.
The range has been dramatically extended over the years by the addition of different Barbie’s, — teacher Barbie, lifeguard Barbie, ballerina, dentist.
Clothes and accessories were added, appropriate for the career portrayed.
There are play accessories such as cars, houses, horses….
They each have ranges of clothes…………and accessories.
Licensed merchandise is now available including books, bikes and scooters, skates, jigsaws, children’s wear, video games, and lunchboxes.
So from the successful launch of a single doll, Mattel have created one of the biggest and most successful brands in the world, with a huge number of ranges.
This a common theme with children’s merchandise where range expansion is very successful. Again, consider Disney’s Frozen with dolls, toys, lunchboxes, books, children’s wear.
In the adult world, designers produce capsule ranges, perfume, handbags, make-up.
Sports brands, which may originally been known for sports footwear, have moved into leisure clothing and accessories.

Casual sequins. I know, it sounds like an oxymoron. Before my eyes stumbled across this beauty I thought sequins were strictly reserved for school formals and grand nights out. Oh how I was wrong. And now that I have my very own sequin piece in my wardrobe (that isn't from my former dance class days), I'm pleasantly surprised by its versatility. Even this t-shirt itself is multipurpose. There's shiny blue/green sequins that make me feel like an urban mermaid. But then flip them over to reveal a more subdue matte black sequin. Cameo, you always know the way to my heart.
Wearing: Cameo the label top, Chicabooti shorts, and Wittner shoes.
Have you used that sequin shirt a lot? Because I'm desperately searching for one and I am trying to tell myself that I wouldn't wear it that much. Or have you forgotten this already? If so I would be interested in buying this.
Thanks for your comment. You just made my day. Remember to leave a link to your blog so I can check it out. Cheers.

This wooden medieval angel is part of the Hems collection held by the museum. Harry Hems was a master stone sculptor and wood worker who came to Exeter to work on the museum building in 1868. He soon developed a thriving business in the city and established a workshop in Longbrook Street.
Many of Hems’ commissions were to restore medieval churches, and he acquired many pieces of medieval woodwork through this work. He displayed these items in his Longbrook Street workshop as inspiration for his craftsmen, but unfortunately he did not record where each piece was acquired from.

During the eighteenth century, the term “citizen of the world” denoted an individual who was knowledgeable, open-minded, and at ease with diverse cultures. At LWA, the History Department strives to instill these same values in its students by fostering an environment that promotes global awareness, civic engagement, cultural consciousness, and critical thinking.
In order to accomplish this, students begin by taking World History in 9th Grade and U.S. History in 10th Grade. Beginning in 11th Grade, students can augment their history education through a variety of courses, such as World Geography, American and Global Civics, Modern World History, Rising Powers, AP U.S. History, and AP World History.
The History Department also offers courses in the social sciences. Students can choose to take Introduction to Sociology and Psychology. In addition to learning about the major theories and concepts of both of these disciplines, students complete research about a contemporary social problem and collaborate on a hands-on psychological research project.

For years now, I’ve been haunted by a memory. It’s late fall, well after dark in Manitoba, and Jamie Seymour and I are coming home from a long day’s hunting. We’re in Jamie’s open boat, droning down the Winnipeg River from Seven Sisters Falls. I’m lying in the bow, wrapped in the warmth of my old canvas hunting parka and a fragrant blanket of freshly cut cattails. A woolen cap is pulled snugly over my ears. The throb of the engine courses through me, it’s rhythm mixing with the resisting, pushing, slapping of the waves against the hull. The wind rushes past. I can hear it, but I’m huddled so deeply into the boat it can’t touch me. The moon is strong and the phosphorus wake of the outboard trails behind us into the darkness. The shoreline dances with shadows. I lie there, drowsy with contentment, the river going on forever, a future of sweet adventure spread out before me. It is 1970 and I’m 14 years old.
This memory came to me again the final morning of a three-day fly-in trip to Whiteye Lake in northern Manitoba. The memory was why I was there. It and others like it had been crowding in on me, reminding me of something I’d lost, of something that had nothing to do with an endless round of meetings, business flights and rush-hour traffic. I’d lost my simple boyhood love of wild places. And I’d flown up to Whiteye with my friend, Norm Butler, to try to find it again.
I grew up in small towns. In 1968 when I turned 13, we moved to Pinawa, a small community carved out of the Whiteshell provincial Park in Manitoba. When we arrived, the area was still pretty wild and it was not at all uncommon for golfers on the local course to interrupt their game while a black bear and her cubs played through. In the town itself, there wasn’t much to interest a teenage boy. There wasn’t a shopping center of decent size for hanging around—not even a 7-Eleven store. For my friends and me, it was either take advantage of the bush around us or die of boredom.
So we took advantage of the bush. And we did it in a big way. In the fall, we lived for hunting. We hunted in the morning before school. We hunted after school. We even wore our smelly old hunting clothes to class. It didn’t make us particularly popular with the girls, but it did give us a head start on getting into the bush. Of course, we hunted every Saturday as well. On Sundays we rested, but only because hunting was forbidden on Sunday. In the summer, we fished and boated. In the winter, we snowshoed and snowmobiled.
At 17, I moved to the city to attend university and, with the exception of a summer in the Yukon, I’ve been a city dweller ever since. I’ve thought a lot about getting back out into the wild, but I’ve never really pursued it. Something has always seemed to take precedence. But this fall, I decided I absolutely had to do it. And of course it was ridiculously easy. All Norm and I did was arrange for a plane and go.
So there I was on the cold final morning at Whiteye, fumbling with a tripod and camera before first light, hoping to capture on film the stillness of the northern sunrise. I worked with numb fingers, loading film, threading the camera body to the tripod mount, hunting through my camera bag for the cable release. Where was that bloody cable release? I found it finally, on a rock by the circle of stones we’d used as a fireplace. The night before I’d used the release to shoot campfire scenes while Norm and I traded stories.
I’d told him about hunting grouse with my father, and of how he’d taught me to stalk rabbits by walking around them in smaller and smaller circles. As long as you don’t walk directly at it, a rabbit thinks you haven’t seen it and stays put. We would often get within just a few feet, but never shot one. As a boy growing up in the Depression years, my father and his brother shot scores of rabbits and sold them to the local mink farmer for five cents each. Having hunted them out of necessity, my father had no interest at all in hunting rabbits for sport.
Norm talked of his own childhood. He told me about the trapline he’d run near his family’s farm and of how, on winter mornings, deer and foxes would come right up to the backdoor. We talked of goose hunting and fishing trips. I even told the story of using my first gun to shoot the Christmas lights off the front of my parents house.
Now I looked at the empty circle of stones and remembered its warmth. But there was no time for a fire if I was going to take sunrise pictures. I attached the cable release to the shutter and sat down on a large flat rock by the shore to wait until the light was strong enough to shoot. The morning mist was thickening between the islands. I listened to the silence. I’d forgotten how quiet mornings in the bush could be. I closed my eyes for a moment and just breathed.
Before long, the sky took on its first delicate blush of orange and I went to work, moving from vantage point to vantage point, shooting as I went. Twenty minutes later, it was all over. The orange had faded to blue. The mist had burned from the water. It was a beautiful clear day, but no longer a photographically remarkable one. I stuffed my gear back into the gadget bag, the cold working on me now that I was no longer completely absorbed in the world of shutter speeds and composition. I headed back to the fireplace, stopping on my way to grab a snarl of branches from a fallen pine. When I was a kid, it had been a point of honor to light a decent fire with only one match and no paper. In a country of abundant jackpine, it wasn’t much of a challenge. And now, as little practiced as I was, I still managed it easily. One match later, I had a respectable little blaze going, hot enough to boil water at least. Then I sat back, nestled contentedly into a sheltered spot between the rocks, and wrapped my cold, early-morning fingers around the warmth of my first cup of coffee of the day.
The sun rose a little higher. Out on the water, a loon called. Time passed. Sitting there, warm and without commitments, I realized I’d found exactly what I came back to the wild to find. I’d found that uncluttered self I’d known in a simpler time, a time when what I couldn’t actually reach out and touch didn’t exist, a time when I knew nothing of falling stock prices, rising interest rates, or expense reports.
The abstract craziness of my life seemed to fall away. There was only the morning sky, the warmth of the coffee I held, the call of the loons on the lake. Nothing else existed. I was 14 years old again, with the river going on forever and a future of sweet adventure spread out before me.

Arm yourself with the right information to treat and prevent blood clots.
Read more to understand why thromboembolic (blood clot) complications can follow arthroscopic or related knee surgery, and what can be done to help prevent them.
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot that forms in a vein deep in the body. Most deep vein blood clots occur in the lower leg or thigh. They also can occur in other parts of the body.
Blood clots can form in your body's deep veins when damage occurs to a vein's inner lining, blood flow is sluggish or slow, your blood is thicker or more likely to clot than usual. Many factors increase your risk for DVT.
People who have had DVT before or have more than one risk factor are at increased risk for the condition.
Only about half the people with DVT have symptoms. These symptoms occur in the leg affected by the deep vein clot. They include swelling of the leg or along a vein in the leg, pain or tenderness in the leg, increased warmth in the area of the leg that's swollen or in pain, and red or discolored skin on the leg. Other symptoms may relate to PE. These may include unexplained shortness of breath, pain with deep breathing, and coughing up blood.
Your doctor will diagnose DVT based on your medical history, a physical exam, and the results from tests. He or she will identify your risk factors and rule out other causes for your symptoms.
DVT is treated with medicines that thin the blood, interfere with the blood clotting process, and dissolve blood clots. Other treatments include filters to catch blood clots and compression stockings that prevent blood from pooling and clotting.
You can take steps to prevent DVT. See your doctor regularly. Follow your treatment plan as your doctor prescribes, stay active if possible, and exercise your lower leg muscles during long trips.
Contact Dr. Longobardi at once if you have any symptoms of DVT or PE.
Most deep vein blood clots occur in the lower leg or thigh. They also can occur in other parts of the body. A blood clot in a deep vein can break off and travel through the bloodstream. The loose clot is called an embolus. When the clot travels to the lungs and blocks blood flow, the condition is called pulmonary embolism (PULL-mun-ary EM-bo-lizm), or PE. PE is a very serious condition. It can damage the lungs and other organs in the body and cause death. Blood clots in the thigh are more likely to break off and cause PE than blood clots in the lower leg or other parts of the body. Blood clots also can form in the veins closer to the skin's surface. However, these clots won't break off and cause PE.
Damage occurs to a vein's inner lining. This damage may result from injuries caused by physical, chemical, and biological factors. Such factors include surgery, serious injury, inflammation, or an immune response.
Blood flow is sluggish or slow. Lack of motion can cause sluggish or slowed blood flow. This may occur after surgery, if you're ill and in bed for a long time, or if you're traveling for a long time.
Your blood is thicker or more likely to clot than usual. Certain inherited conditions (such as factor V Leiden) increase blood's tendency to clot. This also is true of treatment with hormone replacement therapy or birth control pills.
Disorders or factors that make your blood thicker or more likely to clot than normal. Certain inherited blood disorders (such as factor V Leiden) will do this. This also is true of treatment with hormone replacement therapy or using birth control pills.
Injury to a deep vein from a broken bone or other trauma.
Slow blood flow in a deep vein from lack of movement. This may occur after surgery, if you're ill and in bed for a long time, or if you're traveling for a long time.
A central venous catheter. This is a tube placed in vein to allow easy access to the bloodstream for medical treatment.
Being older than 60 (although DVT can occur in any age group).
What Are the Signs/Symptoms of DVT?
The signs and symptoms of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) may be related to DVT itself or to pulmonary embolism (PE). See your doctor right away if you have symptoms of either. Both DVT and PE can cause serious, possibly life-threatening complications if not treated.
Swelling of the leg or along a vein in the leg.
Pain or tenderness in the leg, which you may feel only when standing or walking.
Increased warmth in the area of the leg that's swollen or in pain.
Your doctor will diagnose deep vein thrombosis (DVT) based on your medical history, a physical exam, and the results from tests. He or she will identify your risk factors and rule out other causes for your symptoms.
during the physical exam, your doctor will check your legs for signs of DVT. He or she also will check your blood pressure and your heart and lungs.
you may need one or more tests to find out whether you have DVT. The most common test used to diagnose DVT is ultrasound. This is the most common test for diagnosing deep vein blood clots. It uses sound waves to create pictures of blood flowing through the arteries and veins in the affected leg.
A D-dimer test measures a substance in the blood that's released when a blood clot dissolves. If the test shows high levels of the substance, you may have a deep vein blood clot. If your test is normal and you have few risk factors, DVT isn't likely.
Venography (ve-NOG-ra-fee) is used if ultrasound doesn't provide a clear diagnosis. Dye is injected into a vein, and then an x ray is taken of the leg. The dye makes the vein visible on the x ray. The x-ray will show whether blood flow is slow in the vein. This may indicate a blood clot.
Other less common tests used to diagnose DVT include magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) scanning. These tests provide pictures of the inside of the body. You may need blood tests to check whether you have an inherited blood clotting disorder that can cause DVT. You may have this type of disorder if you have repeated blood clots that can't be linked to another cause, or if you develop a blood clot in an unusual location, such as a vein in the liver, kidney, or brain.
If your doctor thinks that you have pulmonary embolism (PE), he or she may order extra tests, such as a ventilation perfusion scan (V/Q scan). The V/Q scan uses a radioactive material to show how well oxygen and blood are flowing to all areas of the lungs.
Stop the blood clot from getting bigger.
Prevent the blood clot from breaking off and moving to your lungs.
Reduce your chance of having another blood clot.
Medicines are used to prevent and treat DVT.
Blood thinners can be taken as either a pill, an injection under the skin, or through a needle or tube inserted into a vein (called intravenous, or IV, injection).
Warfarin and heparin are two blood thinners used to treat DVT. Warfarin is given in pill form. (CoumadinÂ® is a common brand name for warfarin.) Heparin is given as an injection or through an IV tube. There are different types of heparin. Your doctor will discuss the options with you.
Pregnant women usually are treated with heparin only, because warfarin is dangerous during pregnancy.
Treatment for DVT with blood thinners usually lasts from 3 to 6 months. The following situations may change the length of treatment.
If your blood clot occurred after a short-term risk (for example, surgery), your treatment time may be shorter. If you've had blood clots before, your treatment time may last longer. If you have certain other illnesses, such as cancer, you may need to take blood thinners for as long as you have the illness.
The most common side effect of blood thinners is bleeding. This happens if the medicine thins your blood too much. This side effect can be life threatening. Sometimes, the bleeding is internal (inside your body). People treated with blood thinners usually receive regular blood tests to measure their blood's ability to clot. These blood tests are called PT and PTT tests. These tests also help your doctor make sure you're taking the right amount of medicine. Call your doctor right away if you have easy bruising or bleeding. This may be a sign that your medicines have thinned your blood too much.
These medicines are given to quickly dissolve a blood clot. They're used to treat large blood clots that cause severe symptoms. Because thrombolytics can cause sudden bleeding, they're used only in life-threatening situations.
A vena cava filter is used if you can't take blood thinners or if you're taking blood thinners and still developing blood clots. The filter is inserted inside a large vein called the vena cava. The filter catches blood clots that break off in a vein before they move to the lungs. This prevents pulmonary embolism. However, it doesn't stop new blood clots from forming.
These stockings can reduce the swelling that may occur after a blood clot has developed in your leg. Graduated compression stockings are worn on the legs from the arch of the foot to just above or below the knee. These stockings are tight at the ankle and become looser as they go up the leg. This creates gentle pressure up the leg. The pressure keeps blood from pooling and clotting. These stockings should be worn for at least a year after DVT is diagnosed.
Seeing your doctor for regular checkups.
Taking all medicines your doctor prescribes.
Getting out of bed and moving around as soon as possible after surgery or illness. This lowers your chance of developing a blood clot.
Exercising your lower leg muscles during long trips. This helps prevent a blood clot from forming.
Taking all medicines your doctor prescribes to prevent or treat blood clots.
Following up with your doctor for tests and treatment.
Using compression stockings as your doctor directs to prevent swelling in your legs from DVT.
Contact your doctor at once if you have any signs or symptoms of DVT or PE.
Move your legs and flex and stretch your feet to encourage blood flow in your calves.
If you're at increased risk for DVT, your doctor may recommend wearing compression stockings during travel or taking a blood-thinning medicine before traveling.
Take steps to prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
Check your legs for signs and symptoms of DVT. These include swollen areas, pain or tenderness, increased warmth in swollen or painful areas, or red or discolored skin on the legs.
Contact your doctor right away if you have signs and symptoms of DVT.
Severe pain in your head.
Sudden loss of movement in your arms or legs.
If you have any of these signs or symptoms, get treatment right away. You also should seek treatment right away if you have a lot of bleeding after a fall or injury. This could be a sign that your DVT medicines have thinned your blood too much.
Talk to your doctor before taking any medicines other than your DVT medicines. This includes over-the-counter medicines. Aspirin, for example, also can thin your blood. Taking two medicines that thin your blood may raise your risk for bleeding. Ask your doctor about how your diet affects these medicines. Foods that contain vitamin K can change how warfarin (a blood-thinning medicine used to treat DVT) works. Vitamin K is found in green, leafy vegetables and some oils, like canola and soybean oil. Your doctor can help you plan a balanced and healthy diet.

As the weather cools, the temptation to grab a blanket, chocolate caliente, and remote is undeniable. Luckily, there is a Spanish series to binge that you will absolutely love.
Netflix’s first original Spanish drama Cable Girls (Las Chicas Del Cable) will be premiering the 2nd season on December 25th for your binging pleasure, so get that GrubHub order out of queue, and check out why 97% of Google users love this show.
Las Chicas Del Cable stars Lidia - Blanca Suárez, Marga - Nadia de Santiago, Carlota -Ana Fernández, and Ángeles - Maggie Civantos as telephone operators in 1920s Madrid and follows their fight for the right to work.
Comparably, one could classify this Spanish series as a cross between the reboot of The Great Gatsby and Mad Men from a stylistic standpoint. If you’re more familiar with Spanish media, however, it is worth noting that Cable Girls is produced by Bambú Producciones, the creative team behind Velvet and Gran Hotel, if that gives you a better idea of the aesthetic.
Since Netflix's expanse to Spain in 2015, Cable Girls has been in production since 2016 so if you haven’t checked it out yet, be prepared to spend your day in enjoying what has been years in the making of a fantastic new Spanish series to binge.

Apparel and footwear industries currently account for 8 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions, nearly as much as that of the whole European Union. By 2030, the climate impact of the apparel industry alone is forecast to nearly match today's total annual US greenhouse gas emissions, emitting 4.9 gigatonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent.
Choosing recycled polyester, local or organic cotton or water-saving fibers like hemp will likely have a lower environmental impact. They also send a message to producers there is a demand for more eco-friendly products. To make a real environmental difference, actions like recycling, shift to renewable energy, more efficient processes, smarter design, and different consumption models by the consumers are crucial.
Scrap fabric and disposed clothes are typically burned, which has a disastrous carbon impact on the environment and it is wasting a lot of already used resources. This is why sustainable clothing manufacturers commit using recycled materials to decrease the environmental impact of the production. After using the clothing as long as it lasts, look for opportunities to recycle the item.
Organic cotton is grown using methods and materials that have a low impact on the environment. Organic cotton farming does not use GM seeds, pesticides, or chemical fertilizers. Organic production systems replenish and maintain soil fertility, save a lot of water and build biologically diverse agriculture. An organic farm produces 94% fewer carbon emissions than conventional.
PFC (perfluorocarbons) are chemicals that are used in technical garments to make them water repellent. PFC are chemicals that are released into the air when making and using a product. They are harmful to the environment and people. Read more about PFC´s here.
Longevity of the clothing is the key to sustainable consumption. Focusing on quality fabric, manufacturing, design, and care makes clothes last longer. When making the purchase it's important to choose a good quality brand and design that you can see wearing for a long time. To assure longer life for the carefully chosen products we recommend following the care recommendations of each brand. When needed, instead of replacing we recommend repair as often as possible.
Sustainability theme includes also socially responsible manufacturing and commitment to creating a positive social impact on surrounding communities and stakeholders. This might include for example efforts on global poverty alleviation and giving grants to advance health, education, and livelihoods initiatives around the world.
No clothing brand is 100% sustainable but we offer you the best possible solutions.

This chapter is a part of Brookings India's briefing book, "Reinvigorating SAARC: India's Opportunities and Challenges." To view the preface and table of contents, click here.
The steps taken over the past few months have infused a new life and hope for greater integration and cooperation in the region and, in light of this, the 2014 SAARC Summit – to be held in November, in Kathmandu – provides an opportunity (despite several challenges) to reinvigorate the goals, objectives and future direction of the grouping. Indeed, there is great expectation that this year’s SAARC Summit could be a turning point for the organization.
SAARC’s roots lay in the Declaration on South Asian Regional Cooperation and the Integrated Programme of Action (IPA), adopted by the foreign ministers of South Asia in 1983, calling for regional cooperation in the areas of agriculture, rural development, telecommunications, meteorology, and health and population activities. Subsequently, SAARC was formally established in 1985, during its first Summit in Dhaka, Bangladesh. The overarching objective of the alliance was to consolidate South Asia’s economic and geopolitical potential, and promote the welfare of the population of the region and improve their quality of life.
But more than three decades since it was formed, SAARC stands on shaky ground, and according to some experts has largely been a “somnolent and disappointing body,” its achievements meager and unconvincing.
Economically, the region is one of the least integrated in the world, with very low levels of intra-regional trade and investment. Intra-regional trade is under 5 percent of total official trade – less than it was fifty years ago – while intra-regional foreign investments as a proportion of total investment figures are just as paltry. Juxtaposed to this, intra-regional trade accounts for nearly 35 percent of the total trade in East Asia, 25 percent in Southeast Asia, and almost 12 percent in Middle East and Africa. The SAFTA (South Asian Free Trade Agreement) group comprises a region that has tremendous economic potential, but despite having 23 percent of the world’s population, the region accounts for only 6 percent of Purchasing Power Parity based global GDP, 2 percent of world goods trade, 3 percent of global foreign direct investment, but more than 40 percent of the world’s poor.
SAARC has also done little to improve bilateral disagreements and skirmishes, and the Regional Convention on Suppression of Terrorism has failed to combat terrorist activity. Inter-state conflict is also one of the most significant reasons for the stalling of the SAFTA. The group’s commitment to the goals of the SAARC Charter for Democracy, have been disappointing with several member-nations struggling with military coups, unstable governments, rampant corruption and abuse of power.
While SAARC’s failure to realize its goals may be attributed to several factors – ranging from terrorism, strained bilateral relations, and the absence of military and strategic cooperation – India’s own engagement with SAARC has been found wanting, even though it has evolved over the years.
India’s initial attitude towards SAARC was, according to one observer, “akin to the attempt by the Lilliputs to tie down Gulliver.” It, consequently, played a limited role in the alliance, choosing instead to engage with its neighbors bilaterally based on reciprocity. However, as its economic clout grew in the mid-1990s, India began to assume a greater role as a regional leader. The so-called Gujral Doctrine, wherein Prime Minister I.K. Gujral outlined five principles to govern India’s relations with its immediate neighbors, precipitated this change in large part. The Doctrine stemmed from the belief that India’s stature on the world stage was closely tied to its relations with its neighbors.
The change in posturing notwithstanding, India hasn’t been able to translate all of its promises into action. Studies find that the presence of a large economy often has positive externalities for smaller economies in the region. The International Monetary Fund finds, however, that India’s growth has had only a minuscule impact on the growth of its neighbors. The paltry level of intra-regional trade stems from the region being the least open in the world, but within the region, India remains the least open country, with the lowest trade-to-GDP ratio. Besides, SAARC is still a long way from achieving even the most basic objective of a regional organization – a no-war scenario among its members.
Despite SAARC’s dismal past Modi has boldly stroked new hope for the future of SAARC. Modi is widely seen as a reformist prime minister, who is expected to open up the economy and liberalize trade. In addition, agreements stemming from visits to neighboring countries reveal a certain line of thinking – cooperation, particularly in infrastructure and energy, targeted at resolving shared problems. It is therefore logical that the government would seek similar opportunities to expand and deepen the engagement with SAARC.
Modi’s ambition for SAARC, however, is confronted by external and internal challenges. Externally, the continuing tensions with Pakistan, the uncertainty over Afghanistan and the role of outside actors, notably China, pose threats to reinvigorating SAARC. Internally, the limited capacity of the Indian state, particularly the miniscule size of the foreign service as well as the ability to engage key state governments as stakeholders in foreign policy are also challenges that need to be addressed.
Despite these challenges or indeed because of them cooperation through SAARC on infrastructure, energy, water, trade, climate change mitigation, higher education, healthcare, terrorism and even military cooperation would contribute to India’s twin goals of development and stability in the neighborhood. Modi has thrown down the gauntlet that “South Asian countries should identify specific areas of common heritage, challenges and opportunities to foster region-wide cooperation.” This briefing book serves as Brookings India’s endeavor in that direction, to hopefully set the tone for New Delhi’s new leadership role in SAARC.

Ever since the entry of smartphones into the market, a great chunk of our lives are transacted on them. These pocket-sized windows-to-the-world have attracted lots of our time and for good reasons. Starting from the basic functionality of a phone, which is calling, then adding to it texting, charting, browsing, entertainment(gaming, watching movies, playing music), and now to even more serious functions such as planning our day’s schedule’s, and even managing our finances(I am one marginalized culprits who uses my gadget for this). So much time is spend on our phones that if we were to leave home without them, or lose them in any way, we quickly find a way of getting them back of immediately replacing them. We feel naked without them and we constantly and out of reflex run our hand through our pockets/handbags even though we had earlier confirmed we don’t have them.
Now with most phones being manufactured in China (yes even your pretty expensive iPhone is China made), phones within the same price range generally have the same phone hardware specifications. This is to say that it will take more than just the phone specifications to determine what new gadget you will want to pocket. Being the good guy I am, I will now school you on how to make your pick (for the techies keep hooked because I know you will learn something too).
You know how there are 5 stages of grieving…well you tend to go through the same when you get detached from your phone on a permanent basis. What you need to look for in the next gadget is something that does not drastically depart from what you had. You need to consider the placement of your buttons, both the physical and the soft. Without you knowing it, you have become accustomed to adjusting the volume with the buttons placed on a certain side. You have also initiatively gotten used to the lock button being placed in a certain location, as well as you back button, the menu key and the home button. Acquiring a device with a different layout will mean you retrain your brain and fingers.
Like a shoe, one size does not fit all. We have been told the bigger the better; the bigger the screens, the better it is and the better experience. But that’s not always the case. While guys with large palms may comfortably operate any phone size with one hand, and even be more comfortable with large screen gadgets, each individual should find their fit. If you are deficient of big palms, the screen size will definitely matter to you. You need to reach out to the farthest corner of your screen while holding your phone with one hand without the help of the other. See how well you drag down the status bar of your eye candy, operate everything there with that very hand. I know this is a eureka moment for those of you who have been having difficulty operating gadgets beyond your palm-allowance. So, before trading up your current phone for one with a larger screen estate, the one-hand operations should form part of your litmus tests.
These days, everything is connecting with everything. In a few years we will have what we call the IoT (Internet of Things) or even IoE (Internet of Everything). Soon your phone will be able to talk to that street light and get such information as the temperature or just how much traffic has passed by. But before we get there, most OEM (Original Equipment manufacturers) tend to ensure that they put in a patented technology that only works with their other gadgets. This to say if your phone is the same make as your TV, radio, home theater, or computer, chances are these gadgets will be so in-sync and seamless and they will deliver you ecstasy. Try change any of the gadgets and for a different make and the hiccups start. If you had unintentionally bought different appliances from the same OEM and you enjoyed the magic of them working together, you might want to replace your phone with the same or better model from the same OEM.
I know you are wondering if I will tell you to trace your gadget from the OEM or ask you to be their distributor, but before you wonder any more, I will ask you a question or two; how easy is it to get a replacement part for your phone? How quickly can you get a guy who can replace say replace your screen or your broken charge port? If you don’t have a quick answer to this, then you seriously need think of who is the manufacture of your next phone. As part of my list of things I check before I buy a phone, I have to make sure its products, accessories, and repair places are readily available. If I have to order a replacement part from overseas, then I don’t think that phone is my match. This matters to me and so should it to you, otherwise you will end up with a brand new block; a dead phone that you just bought a few months ago simply because you can’t get a spare. I would also advice you against buying gadgets from new OEM entrants to the market simply because their spares are not readily available.
One of the fun things we do on our phones is gaming. There are also some applications that have proven very functional to our daily lives. A factor that should influence the choice of your next phone is the available of your favorite applications. Let me share a secret with you on how developers of applications target their market; the popularity of the platforms that the apps ride on and their likely return on investment. In the market as it is, Google play store has the highest number of mobile apps available for use on the Android platform. Apple store comes second and third placed is Windows store. You increase your chances of getting access to the most innovative and competitive applications if you buy a gadget that runs on the Android and iOS platforms in that order. You might struggle to find your favorite game on other platforms.
Now before I go, I will share this one more tip (feel free to consider it your bonus); the ease of share of applications, music, documents, videos. The sharing I am taking about here is not the online sharing over the Internet. The sharing you need to consider is how easy you can blue-tooth a song, video, or and image to your friend. Some phone platforms, I will not say iOS, are very restrictive in sharing of media files. You might not be able to enjoy sharing with your friends as you would want to.


text: Abstract: Progranulin (PGRN) is a growth factor normally expressed in rapidly cycling epithelial cells for growth, differentiation, and motility. Several studies have shown the association of PGRN overexpression with the progression of numerous malignancies, including cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). However, the underlying mechanisms on how PGRN modulates CCA cell proliferation and motility is not clear. In this study, we investigated the prognostic significance of PGRN expression in human CCA tissue and the mechanisms of PGRN modulation of CCA cell proliferation and motility. We found that CCA tissues with high PGRN expression were correlated with poor prognosis and likelihood of metastasis. PGRN knockdown KKU-100 and KKU-213 cells demonstrated a reduced rate of proliferation and colony formation and decreased levels of phosphatidyl inositol-3-kinase (PI3K) and phosphorylated Akt (pAkt) proteins. Accumulation of cells at the G1 phase was observed and was accompanied by a reduction of cyclin D1 and CDK4 protein levels. Knockdown cells also induced apoptosis by increasing the Bax-to-Bcl-2 ratio. Increased cell apoptosis was confirmed by annexin V-FITC/PI staining. Moreover, suppression of PGRN reduced CCA cell migration and invasion in vitro. Investigating the biomarkers in epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) revealed a decrease in the expression of vimentin, snail, and metalloproteinase-9. In conclusion, our findings imply that PGRN modulates cell proliferation by dysregulating the G1 phase, inhibiting apoptosis, and that it plays a role in the EMT affecting CCA cell motility, possibly via the PI3K/pAkt pathway.

Riot police were quick to crack down on a march in Hledan market in Yangon, beating several protesters on March 10.
A group of students and activists came onto the streets of Yangon at 2 pm in sympathy with the protesters who had been beaten in a melee of violence by police earlier in the day in Letpadan.
About 1,000 students and activists took part in the protest, and the authorities used about 500 police to launch a crackdown.
The protestors marched along Pyay Road. When they approached Sitepyoyay bus-stop, scuffles broke out between the protestors and the police. Some protestors were beaten.
The protestors in Hledan shouted slogans calling for the immediate release of the students and activists who were arrested in Letpadan. The protesters in Letpadan were demonstrating for changes to the National Education Law and had been blocked from continuing their march to Yangon.
Riot police on Tuesday launched violent crackdown on student protestors’ camp in Letpadan, so on the same day, in Hledan, Yangon, some students and other people staged a brief protest against the “Letpadan crackdown”. But police launched a violent crackdown against the brief protest in Hledan, too.
Initially, student protestors in Letpadan announced that they would leave from Letpadan for Yangon on March 10. So students and activists in Yangon planned to stage a protest outside the Hledan market in Yangon if authorities did not allow the students in Letpadan to enter into Yangon. But authorities announced that they would allow students in Letpadan to enter into Yangon, so the plan of the activists in Yangon was cancelled.
Despite announcement, the riot police launched a violent crackdown against student protestors in Letpadan. So the students and activists in Yangon staged a protest at about 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday and the police in Yangon launched a violent crackdown on the brief protest.
“We will make efforts by using various ways until we get democratic education,” he said.
About 1,000 students and activists took part in the protest, and authorities used about 500 police to launch crackdown the protest, Mizzima witnessed.
The protestors marched along Pyay Road. When they reached near Sitepyoyay bus-stop, scuffles broke out between the protestors and the police. Some protestors were beaten.
The protestors (in Hledan) shouted slogans calling for the immediate release of the students and activists who were arrested in Letpadan.

This buns are just perfect! There is nothing more to say about this velvety dough and sensational French brioche texture!
The original recipe is from Falling Cloudberries: A World of Family Recipes , by Tessa Kiros: I recommend this book to anyone interested in real, down to hearth, simple and satisfying recipes! I’ve tried many and none was a disappointment, from a potato salad to the ultimate roasted chicken.
And those buns! Even the making of them is so satisfying I could make them everyday!
Jam (I’ve used my father in law figs and honey jam: whole figs cooked in sugar and honey. The original recipe calls for cinnamon butter, but I do pefer them with jam). I think next time I try to add fresh fruits, like berries or sliced apples, to the filling.
I normally make the dough in my Kenwood Chef: easier, faster, no fuss. But you can make it by hand (brave!).
Crumble the yeast in the milk with the sugar and let it bubble.
Add the egg, butter, cardamom and salt. Mix.
Add the flour, mixing with a fork, then by hand.
Knead by hand until the dough is silky and smooth.
Cover with a clean dump cloth and let it rise in a warm place for at least 2 hours on until it doubled the size.
On a floured surface, roll out the dough 2-3 millimetres thick.
Spread the jam and beginning for the larger side, roll it up to make a big sausage.
Cut the sausage in 3 centimetres thick slices. Lay them, cut side up, on a tray covered with oven-proof paper, 2-3 centimetres far from one another. Let it rise.
When the oven is hot, bake the buns for 15 minutes or until golden.
Let them cool, if you can resist!

If you were hoping for some kind of targeted release date — or even a specified quarter/window for that matter — for either of THQ Nordic’s two, more notable projects in Biomutant or Darksiders 3, going into this year’s E3, you may want to conserve expectations for a later time. During their quarterly financial report for Q1 2018 published earlier today, the company admitted that the scheduling of either title has, as they say, “not yet been decided”, perhaps suggesting that a 2018 release for both games is now unlikely.
Biomutant is an intriguing Action RPG that has you take on the role of a continually-evolving, weapon-wielding animal in a vast and lush open-world environment, while Darksiders 3 is the third instalment — the first in six years — in, original developers, Vigil Games’ action-adventure series and sees Gunfire Games taking over main duties. THQ Nordic have already confirmed that 4A Games’ Metro: Exodus has been pushed back into Q1 2019.

A Zero Waste Mozzie Repellent In Under 5 Minutes!
There is much controversy about the safety of Deet. In 2014, a team of researchers found the chemical Deet to be toxic to the central nervous system. They explained that this chemical does not simply modify behaviour, it also inhibits the activity of a key central nervous system enzyme called acetylcholinesterase, in both insects and mammals.
Deet is a true repellent, this means that it protects not by killing mosquitoes or other insects, but by preventing them from landing on your skin or clothing in the first place. One theory is that Deet blocks the insects’ ability to smell human sweat and breath. More recent research suggests a different but far simpler explanation, the compound just smells incredibly bad to most bugs – so much so that they avoid all contact with it.
Even with its benefits as a true repellent, do you still want to spritz anything with Deet on your skin? If the answer is “no” then this simple to make DIY mozzie repellent might be right up your alley.
Mosquitoes can’t stand citronella, peppermint, lemon, eucalyptus, basil, clove, thyme, lemongrass, geranium, and lavender, so here is a little recipe that will have them flying in the opposite direction.
Mix 5 drops of lemon essential oil, 10 drops of eucalyptus essential oil and 20 drops of citronella essential oil in two cups of water, pour the concoction into a spray bottle and spritz yourself silly.
You can even burn citronella candles or citronella essential oil in a diffuser in your house or garden during mozzie season to prevent the little buggers from making a meal of you.
We hope you enjoyed this article and we were able to help keep you mosquito free! For more DIY and zero waste stories, please click here.

What do you think of DOE's Home Energy Score progam?
It might have some potential benefits to our business.
I don't see it having much of an impact on business.
I think it could have negative effect.
Window & Door Dealers Alliance members are heading to Department of Energy offices in Washington, D.C., today to learn about the Home Energy Score program. In the pilot phase in a number of places around the country, the program uses specially-trained assessors who walk through homes and input information into a program that outputs a score card with a 1 to 10 energy efficiency rating and a list of recommended upgrades, estimated costs and paybacks.
The idea is that, with this knowledge, homeowners will be more willing to make investments in energy retrofits. It is also hoped that the Home Energy Score and the estimated energy cost savings generated could spur mortgage lenders, utilities and others to help finance such retrofits.
Theoretically, more people doing these kind of upgrades should be a positive for the industry, but there hasn't been a lot of industry involvement in the development of the initiative. In fact, there simply isn't a lot of awareness. WDDA is hoping to learn more about what the score system might say about window and door replacements, and it will be interesting to hear what they report back. In the meantime, were you aware of DOE's Home Energy Score program? That's our poll question of the week. And as usual, we'd like to hear from you. Do you like the idea? Does it worry you? If your company is in a market where DOE is currently conducting one of its pilot efforts, we'd especially love to hear feedback from you Email me or post a comment.

Have the endowment of boundless merit.
In some temples of our Order the monks walk an alms round in the local community. Just walking, and I walked in Mt. Shasta, it’s clear that the round is as much an offering as it is a receiving. It was a privilege to walk the alms round.
When a donor cames and puts an offering into the monks alms bowl they were asked if they would like the merit given to anybody in particular. Often people were moved deeply as the above verse was recited and a name, or troubled situation, was included in the offering.
I guess this website is an alms round where there is both giving and receiving. However, unlike the walking rounds where only food is accepted, this round accepts Dana in the form of cash. If you would like to make an offering I’ve put up a link in the Donations section to the Order of Buddhist Contemplatives Activities Trust page of Everyclick. This is a service I’m testing to see if anybody is drawn to use it.
This Everyclick is a really great idea. I’ve registered as an OBC fundraiser and hope that we have such a thing for Canadian charities sometime soon.
Thanks so much for leaving a comment and for registering an OBC fundraiser with Everyclick. All summer I’ve been working on setting up a Paypal account to receive donations on Jade Mountains however just recently I needed to stop proceedings temporarily. Hopefully in a few months Paypal will be an option for donors to the O.B.C. Activities Trust, the UK charity.
Yes, and I hope such a site as Everyclick will appear in Canada. Perhaps you could set one up?
Hope all is well in your place and hope readers go over and visit your site to see the great work you are doing.

CSE’s Home Energy Team are working in partnership with Wellington Medical Centre, in South Somerset, to provide free energy advice to Wellington residents. The project was instigated by Wellington Medical Centre, following their contact with CSE through the Warmer Improved Somerset Homes (WISH) project.
There are clear links between ill health and living in a cold home – existing medical conditions can be exacerbated by low temperatures and their frequent accompaniments: damp, condensation and mould. The many preventable illnesses that result from under heated homes cost NHS England up to £1.36bn annually, and mean that people in the UK are 23% more likely to die as a result of winter conditions than people living in Sweden (despite the milder British winters).
In March 2015 the National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE) recognised this issue and published guidelines which highlight the significant burden that is placed on health services by the effects of living in cold homes. To address this, the NICE guidance calls for a strategic approach that integrates healthcare with local services dealing with issues such as fuel poverty and debt, energy efficiency, insulation and heating provision.
Using the energy efficient homes map created by CSE, Wellington GPs can make sure they don't send at-risk patients back to a poorly heated home, without referring them for help first.
Researchers at CSE produced a map for Wellington Medical Practice to use which shows the distribution of energy inefficient homes in their practice area. This allows GPs working at the practice to link up patients with their likely living conditions. If they feel that a patient could benefit from interventions surrounding cold homes, they are referred on to CSE.
Advice on insulation, including information on funding grants.
Getting the best from energy suppliers or reducing fuel debt.
Checking eligibility for the Warm Home Discount and registration on the Priority Services Register.
Dealing with damp and mould caused by condensation.
Help with water saving or water debt.
Understanding central heating controls and using energy efficiently in the home.
Lisa Evans, CSE’s project manager explains the benefits of the project: “Keeping yourself warm and well is so important for maintaining good health, and if peoples' ability to do this is compromised it creates a substantial burden on the health service. Working together with practices like Wellington is a fantastic way to get to the bottom of this problem and help to keep people warm, well and safe."
This project has been funded by Western Power Distribution.

MobileGo Price Analysis for 07/12/2017 – Rebound Underway?
MobileGo is up 3% against bitcoin as the latter suffered a sharp tumble on speculations that the bubble is starting to burst. Bearish remarks from several analysts have also contributed to the bitcoin tumbled across the board, with some citing that the end of the easy monetary policy era could lead to massive unwinding in bitcoin portfolios.
MobileGo is still hovering around the 0.00030 support versus bitcoin, though, and price has yet to show strong upside momentum. If it fails to do so, it could have another chance at a bounce off the next support around 0.00028. Volume is still noticeably subdued for this one.
Against ethereum, MobileGo is up by 6.69% as the former suffered a sharp decline below $200 recently. A bit of a bearish flag can be seen and a break below this tight short-term consolidation could mean another long wave down for ethereum, possibly until the lows at 0.0032.
Volume is also nearly flat but could get a boost once ethereum tests the nearby area of interest at 0.0035.
Lastly, MobileGo is up nearly 2% to the dollar as it rests around an area of interest at 0.67. A bounce off this level could take it to the nearby inflection point at 0.70 while a break could lead to a test of 0.60.
Mixed monetary policy biases from Fed officials have contributed to the dollar’s tossing and turning in the past few days, but demand for the currency remains sustained since the economy printed a stronger than expected jobs report.
A couple of less hawkish members, Brainard and Kashkari, have mentioned in their speeches that the central bank should take a long hard look at the subdued inflation readings before considering hiking interest rates again. However, the mention of balance sheet unwinding to start later this year was able to outweigh the bearish impact on the US dollar and keep it supported against its peers like MobileGo.

The couple wanted a solution that offered them more security than private rental so they decided to look at buying a house for themselves. Both at retirement age, they discovered that traditional mortgage lenders weren’t willing to give them more than £80,000. In a region where the average property price is approximately £250,000, it soon became clear that traditional homeownership wasn’t an option.
Having seen an Aster sign outside a house for sale in Perranporth, Mr and Mrs Cadwell decided to look into shared ownership. After discussing their options with Aster, the couple were able to buy a 25% share in a brand new, two-bedroom property worth £200,000 with a deposit of £14,000.
Previously living in a large, ageing property, the Cadwells were paying £1,000 a month in rent and over £3,000 a year to heat the poorly insulated building. In their new home the couple pay a combined total of £711 a month in rent and mortgage and now live in an energy-efficient house, saving them money on utilities.
“We actually get to the end of the month now and find we have money left over which we can save. It’s enabling us to put a bit aside which we can build up to buy a larger share of our home in the future,” added William.
Amy Nettleton, assistant development director – sales and marketing at Aster Group, said: “William and Julie are proof that shared ownership is designed to help a wide range of people in differing circumstances.
“There are a lot of people who, for whatever reason, aren’t able to access a traditional mortgage – whether it’s because they’re paying too much in rent to save for a deposit or, as with the Cadwells, lenders aren’t willing to give them a mortgage because of their age.

A personal crisis and a life-event culminated over a span of twenty years in a spiritual shift. During those stormy years, the 15 minutes of daily meditation were the highlight of my life. A scientist by training, I started becoming curious about the Vedic and Buddhist teachings. Material success no longer mattered. Then I became pregnant. I reached a tipping point. According to many, I "foolishly" quit a successful career on Wall Street to understand the deeper meaning of this life force that is kindled within me and that of the two beautiful beings growing inside my uterus.
New York University (NYU) became my temple. Immersing in Comparative Religions and Neuropsychology studies, I tried to grasp a textbook definition of soul. I was unsuccessful. So I started to research at NYU Medical School, thinking that the MRI machine would help me get a mechanical workings of this strange life force. Well, that was not to happen. However, I did realize working with the laboratory is that I loved working with the little "test subjects" that came holding their their parents' hands to be tested for autism. I also noticed that these children seemed sad when their parents were stressed. When the parents lit up, so did these kids. While there is a place for psychiatrists to work with these children, I felt a gaping hole in how we perceive these mental illnesses. There was a strong brain component to dealing with children - typically developing or diagnosed - that we cannot overlook. But there is a stronger and more influential component in raising children that we, as parents, are missing out on.
How about trusting the process of life? We could use every life experience as a lesson on living. How about using every person we come along, especially our children, as our "gurus"? I use this concept in my workshops. I am lucky to have grown up in India, where the rich teachings of our sages are passed on through generations. I am also fortunate to be married to a Scandinavian man, teaching me how to balance the two very opposite cultures - marrying the best of both worlds of the East and West. This is what I would like to share with you!
