On Sunday, I moved back to Canterbury for final year and I've spent the last few days settling into my new house. This year, we've got a house in the heart of the city centre and although it's old and needs a lick of paint, I really like it and feel right at home here. The best part about it is that I'm living with some of my very best friends, so I'm excited for the year ahead.
Before I headed back to Canterbury, I got in contact with Talking Tables Ltd: a party tablewear specialist that I'd heard about at Blogger Picnic in the Park. They offered me the chance to collaborate with them, by featuring some of their products on my blog. After surfing their beautiful website, I came across a few Alice in Wonderland bits I liked and much to my delight, they were here in time for my move back to University! I wanted to decorate my Uni room with Disney or fairytale items anyway, so Alice in Wonderland was a great option.
On Thursday I received a box filled with some of Talking Tables' Alice in Wonderland products. The range is called 'Truly Alice' and I was sent an assortment of items: the teapot bunting, the 'drink me' bottles, a teapot vase, some food picks, the key placecards and some cups and plates. I was in awe at the box when I opened it, what lovely things to be sent! I couldn't wait to get back to Canterbury and put them up around my room.
When I got back here on Sunday, my new room wasn't in the best state. The walls were worn and it was in a lot poorer condition than when I'd viewed the property in December. I was gutted when I first saw it, but after some positivity and the reminder that I had some lovely items to decorate the room with, my parents and I set to work trying to make the best of it.
We put the beautiful teapot bunting along one of the walls, which definitely helped give the room some life. The bunting is probably my favourite of the items as it's so unique; I haven't seen anything like it before! I really like the fact that there are quotes along the individual pieces. It retails for £8.00 and is 4 meters in length.
I also stuck one of the 'drink me' bottles and key placecards to that same wall. The 'drink me' bottles are so cute, I've got lots of them scattered around me room. It's £11 for a set containing 6 of the bottles and 12 straws. A pack of 6 placecards costs £7. These are ideal for Summer tea party events!
One of the floral paper cups!
A pack of 12 costs £6.
Sticking to the teapot theme, I decided to make the vase a main feature of the room. I filled it with some Asda flowers and added the food picks as decoration. The vase is such an adorable idea! It's made from cardboard, but it has a plastic container for water inside. The vase is available for £8.50 and a pack of the food picks costs £7.
In front of the vase, I placed my glittery Alice in Wonderland figurines and one of the plates and cups. I bought the figurines at the Disney Store on Saturday for only £10! The fact that the paper cup has a handle is fantastic; the range really goes to town with the 'tea party' theming.
When I was in town on Monday, I saw this Alice in Wonderland plaque in Primark. For £2 I couldn't resist it; I thought it'd go well with all of the Talking Tables items in my room. The plaque is now up on one of my walls.
The 'Truly Alice' range is absolutely lovely and I totally recommend it. It's made my Uni room go from dreary to lively and floral, and I can't thank the team at Talking Tables enough for the opportunity.
If you like Alice in Wonderland, you can see the whole range on offer here.
Which of the items do you like best?
*These items were kindly gifted to me by Talking Tables.
How could one pick a favourite, when it's all so amazing! Love their stuff, would love to use their products for our homemade Afternoon Tea we're planning! Love it all, and wow your uni room is big! Thanks for sharing!
Beds and furniture are the centre of style in your bedroom so are an essential part of bedroom furniture.

Everyone who regularly reads my newsletter already knows that I’m an advocate of conscious cleansing and detox to both restore and maintain vibrant health and vitality.
Now, when I first went through 10 days of the “Master Cleanse” program, I did it only with the recipe that I got from a friend and with the support of my wife. It was a tough 2-3 days to begin with, especially with all the detox reactions, but we made it through.
Later, I heard about the book “Master Cleanse Secrets” by Raylen Sterling, It’s a complete, expert guide to succeeding with the Master Cleanse. It’s 109 pages and full of helpful tips.

Father I am here for Communion with You and Remembrance of what Jesus has done for me.
13 No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it... 16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ? 17 For we, though many, are one bread and one body; for we all partake of that one bread.
Isaiah 43:26 says: Put me in remembrance, let us plead together; rehearse thine own cause, that thou mayest be justified. Father Remember Jesus took my diseases and Jesus took my sickness, Father these communion elements are the evidence of my healing, this is the heavenly receipt for the price Jesus paid for me. Father I thank you that Jesus took all my diseases and no disease deserves to be in my body because Jesus took it. I thank you Father because Jesus took it, I don’t have to carry it and this bread is a representation of His body broken for me.
Father I partake of these elements in remembrance of what your Son has done and I am thankful for this blessing… The bread is to remind that Jesus bore my sickness and the cup is to remind all sins are forgiven. My right to the bread is because of the cup.
Father I thank you for this time of communion and I receive into my body the blessings of the sacrifice of Jesus’s body and blood.

By requiring physicians to specify dosage and “order” marijuana instead of certify usage for patients, the DOH causes physicians to be in violation of federal law and lose their medical license.
Because of this there are less physicians willing to certify patient use, limiting access. This also creates a smaller pool of doctors willing to risks take risks and creates an environment similar to the pill mill crisis.

Five people were taken to hospital after a carbon monoxide leak in an office building on Wednesday (April 27).
They were taken for precautionary checks from the building in Clifford Street in Mayfair, while a further five were treated at the scene by paramedics .
Fire crews from Soho and Lambeth attended, and were called out shortly after 5pm. Ten office workers left a basement conference room before crews arrived and firefighters evacuated a further 50 people from the four storey block.
Firefighters using specialist equipment found raised levels of carbon monoxide and carried out a sweep of the building to identify the source of the leak, which was found to be a boiler in the basement, which they isolated.
The incident was over by 7.20pm.The building was then ventilated before being handed back to the owners.
There was also a carbon monoxide leak at offices in Notting Hill earlier this month. Three people managed to escape unharmed.
The London Fire Brigade is now urging everyone to make sure they have a carbon monoxide detector in their home.
A spokesperson said: “ Carbon monoxide is a silent killer , with least 50 deaths nationally recorded every year as a result of carbon monoxide poisoning.
Earlier in the month firefighters were called to a suspected gas leak in White City , but it proved a false alarm.

Sarah Palin, Trig, And Journolist…Did Your Head Explode Yet?
Most of the time it’s hard to muster sympathy for Sarah Palin when it comes to her treatment at the hands of the press; this is a woman who could teach an advanced course in media relations. In fact every day I wonder if she’s doing just that with her Facebook notes. However, when it comes to the ongoing, and inappropriate speculation about her youngest son Trig, I think she has a point.
Emphasis mine. Because while it is well within Palin’s right to respond loudly and harshly to speculation about her youngest child, using that coverage as an excuse for why she has almost entirely withdrawn from any unscripted media exchange is almost as lamentable as the coverage she is complaining about. Andrew Sullivan, meanwhile, is happy to have some company.

Modern Family star Sarah Hyland faces backlash over donation campaign.
MODERN Family star Sarah Hyland has copped a social media battering in the wake of her young cousin's death, with some questioning why the wealthy TV star is using her Instagram and Twitter accounts to solicit donations from members of the public.
Hyland's 14-year-old cousin Trevor was killed in an alleged drink driving accident over the weekend, a car crash that left her uncle seriously injured in hospital and requiring further surgery.
Trevor's sister Tessa has set up a GoFundMe fundraising page with a goal of $US25,000 ($A34,000) - a goal that has already been exceeded, with more than $US30,000 ($A41,000) in funds raised in just one day.
Sarah Hyland’s plea to fans.
According to the page, which is raising money for funeral costs and medical expenses, the father and son were "driving to a show choir event and were involved in a serious car accident".
"Please DONATE," Hyland begged her 1.55 million Twitter followers with a link to the fundraising page.
Hyland reportedly receives over $US100,000 ($A136,000) per episode for her starring role as Haley Dunphy on hit sitcom Modern Family, which has run for more than 200 episodes now.
It's estimated that her time on the show has seen the actor amass a $US9 million ($A12 million) fortune.
Her Modern Family co-stars Ariel Winter and Nolan Gould - both estimated to have amassed similar fortunes to Hyland - also shared the fundraising link to their social media accounts, asking their combined millions of fans to donate.
Donation records on the GoFundMe page show that the two highest donations so far have come from Winter (who gave $2500) and from Hyland herself (who donated $1000).
Hyland hit back as speculation grew about her involvement in the fundraising campaign, writing: "You don't know all the details. And how dare you attack when a beautiful life has been lost."

This week, I learned that this sandwich is a thing - evidently more common in the South.
After a long week, I didn't feel like cooking tonight, so figured I'd give it a try.
The flavor of the mayo isn't strong enough to match the strong flavor of the peanut butter, and I put quite a bit of mayo on there.
It was nothing special and I wouldn't make it again.
Now pb and sliced tomato is good.
I'm southern and have never heard of that. While I really like PB and bananas, PB and apples, and will eat a PB and J, mayo and PB? Just no!
on white bread. PLUS I added; you freeze it for 3 hours for total satisfaction.
Who's going to try it? Thanks Lee for the garden and gun article above.

Detailed descriptions on the operation and connections can be found in the MICRO8 or MICRO32 manual under the heading CONTROL-BALL.
Is designed for controlling the BOXes (cases) which hold the billiard balls.
Three models available: for 4, 8 and for 16 boxes.
Art.728 - CONTROL-BALL-4 can control the balls for 4 tables.
Art.729 - CONTROL-BALL-8 can control the balls for 8 tables.
Art.730 - CONTROL-BALL-16 can control the balls for 16 tables.
The connection between each BOX and the controller is carried out using two wires at low voltage (24V).
BOX is a sturdy metal container with a simple mechanical system (patented) for controlling the billiard balls.
There are BOXes for all types of billiard balls: see ARTICLE CODES section.
When a game start (START) is given to the MICRO8-MICRO32, the ball door opens automatically thus allowing the player to take the tray holding the balls. When the tray with ALL the balls is replaced into the BOX and the door is closed (the door will not close if even one ball is missing), the MICRO8-MICRO32 will stop the time count and display game-over to the operator.
The BALL-CONTROL can also be connected to simple ball holders where a micro-switch trips when the ball tray is removed. In this case the game starts automatically when the tray is removed.
CONTROL-BALL power supply: 230Vac, 250mA Max (115V).
All the below mentioned BOXES have a rear shoulder in sheet metal for wall mounting.
If the boxes have to be stacked one on top of another, they are available without rear shoulder and with an anti-slip rubber insert; their code number has the word /L added (example: Art. 403/L).
There are also available BOXES for fitting underneath the billiard table with appropriate brackets; their code number has the word /S added.

Bunaíodh Scoil Naithí i 1973 nuair a tháínig grúpa tuismitheoirí sa cheantar le chéile le hoideachas trí mhéan na Gaeilge a sholáthar dá gcuid páistí. Bhí an scoil ag feidhmiú i seomraí réamhdhéanta go dtí 1980 nuair a tógadh an foirgneamh scoile. I 1993 thóg Comhlucht Naithí an Amharclann agus an Naíonra.
Scoil Naithí was founded in 1973 by a group of parents who saw a need to provide a suitable environment where children in the area could be educated through Irish. They took action and fulfilled that need. In the early years classes were held in pre-fabs until the school was built in 1980. In 1993 Comhlucht Naithí extended the PE Hall and built Amharclann Naithí and Naíonra Naithí.


text: The Shun Classic Hollow Edge Brisket Knife is the perfect tool for a barbecue or family feast. It's ideal for trimming and slicing larger cuts of meat, including brisket, ham, turkey, and roasts. The high-performance Japanese AUS8 blade is highly refined, high-carbon, vanadium stainless steel, enabling it to take and hold its Shun-sharp edge longer. The long and narrow blade makes it easy to cut slices in a single pass to ensure more of the juices and flavor stay inside the meat, and slices will look perfect since there's no need to saw back and forth. Hollow edge indentations on the blade help food release more easily and the rounded tip makes the knife safer and easier to use. Full-tang construction ensures the Classic Brisket Knife is strong and well balanced. PakkaWood handles with an ebony finish complete the brisket knife's handsome look. The included wooden saya, or sheath, protects the blade and makes it simple to transport to a barbecue or celebration taking place away from home.

When you think of Popes you wouldn’t think that a small country like the Netherlands ever would produce a Pope. But yet it did.
Born as Adriaan Florensz Boeyens in Utrecht on March 2 1459. He would become thr head of the Catholic Church and ruler of the Papal States from 9 January 1522 until his death on 14 September 1523. He would be the only Dutchman so far to become pope, and was the last non-Italian pope until John Paul II, 455 years later.
He was designated the title Pope Adrian VI or also Hadrian VI. Adrian was resented by the Romans as an outsider. He took up the task of reforming the church. Pope Adrian VI took over from Pope Leo X, who had been Pope from 1513 to 1521.Pope Leo had left the papacy in chaos. The treasury was depleted by wars, construction, and private leisure activities.
Adrian VI tried to unite the Christians in a crusade against the Turks, he failed in this. Swiftly the Turks under Suleiman the Magnificent conquered Rhodes.
Adrian also underestimated the early stages of the Lutheran revolt. Adrian did condemn Luther as a heretic, but he took no defensive actions against the Lutheran movement. Ironically the country he was born in would later become one of the most Lutheran countries in Europe.
Adrian VI died in Rome on 14 September 1523, after one year, eight months and six days as pope. Most of his official papers were lost after his death.

Taxes and other liabilities to HM Revenue and Customs When you have a HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) invoice that you cannot afford, it is important to get in touch with them as soon as possible to try to reach an agreement. Failure to do so and your invoice remaining unsettled will result in HMRC initiating a recovery procedure. If you do not settle your income bill, HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) will take "enforcement action" to obtain the funds.
Perhaps you can prevent this by contacting them. In the event that you do not come to an understanding (or do not meet the payment terms), there are several possibilities for you. You can have your funds collected by the HMRC directly from your home savings or banking accounts. The HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) can take and trade things you own to settle your debts.
Even if you cannot afford to be taxed, you are entitled to receive equitable handling from the HMRC. However, your taxes will not be refunded.
Whom should take the competence test? Every candidate for advanced tuition for teaching staff (ITT), as well as those for assessment only (AO) programs, must have passed the vocational proficiency test for future teaching staff before the start of the course. ISVs will use the results of the competency testing to make their decision about candidates' course entrance. Students enrolled in degree programs beginning in the 2017 to 2018 Academic Year can now take exams.
Students can take their skill test after proving that they have applied through UCAS Instructor Education (for AO programs, please contact your school). It is possible to reserve your test in anticipation, provided that an request is made before visiting the test center. Students who began their education before 1 July 2013 must successfully complete the examinations before being commended forQTS.
Testing can be done at any point during the course. It is strongly recommended to exercise the test before performing to familiarize yourself with the test functions. Further information and the use of our practical test can be found on the pages Numerics and Litacytests. Booking your reading and arithmetic experiments is possible via PSI, the supply partners of the Ministry of Education.
First 3 trials are free of cost. They can take the test in PSI test centers throughout the state. Be sure to get there in good time to avoid being flagged as missing and lose your first free trial. They are not permitted to do a test without them, so please take enough ID-check before your test.
Primal ID must be current and contain a photo, name and sign. Sub ID must be legitimate and contain a name and sign. In case you have modified a part of your name since you registered for the test, you must provide proof of your name modification, e.g. wedding certificates, certificates or other documents.
Failure to provide the appropriate proof will result in rejection and loss of your first free try at skill testing. Skill testing is computer labeled. As soon as you have completed a test, you will receive a printout of the results of the test. Certifications are not awarded and it is strongly advised that you keep the paper copy for your own use.
When you feel that a test score has not been properly posted, please refer to the Skill Test Help Line. Allows your workout vendor to view your results, see how many trials you've done, what results you've obtained, and what your overall results look like. You will use this information in the recruitment procedure and check the success of both exams before you allow the candidate to begin your course.
After starting your course or successfully completing a course, you can review the results of your qualification test at any point. Educational institutions use the results of student assessments to check the success of both exams before recommending them for qualification for QTS. The qualification test for candidates for ITT language course shall continue to be effective for 3 years from the date of the examination taken.
When you apply for a course that extends beyond the expiry date, you must take the skill exams again. When you have already begun or finished an ITT course, your test results are indefinite.

The trials are designed to show the enhanced range reliability and latency benefits of C-V2X direct communications operated in 5GHz band. Additionally, the C-V2X trials are designed to demonstrate the complementary benefits of network-based communications utilizing LTE-Advanced (LTE-A).
The trial results will help develop the ecosystem by providing inputs to the relevant stakeholders, including ITS-related organizations and government agencies, as we prepare for the connected car of the future and the industry’s evolutionary transition towards 5G New Radio (NR), the new global cellular standard being defined in 3GPP.
While complementing other Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) sensors, such as radar, lidar, and camera systems, C-V2X provides non-line-of-sight (NLOS) low latency awareness with longer range and cloud capabilities, and is designed to extend a vehicle’s ability to see, hear and communicate further down the road, even at blind intersections.
C-V2X radio technology, a state-of-the-art cellular technology, is being validated for global deployments, and leverages the upper layer protocols developed by the automotive industry over years of research to support new advanced end-to-end use cases. C-V2X direct communications provide enhanced range and reliability without relying on cellular network assistance or coverage.
Preparation work is well underway with the trial expected to begin in 2018 and the use cases are designed to focus on Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V), Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) and Vehicle-to-Pedestrian (V2P) direct communications, as well as Vehicle-to-Network (V2N) operations over cellular network-based wide area communications with cloud access.
For the field trials, Continental will utilize the Qualcomm® C-V2X Reference Design, which features the Qualcomm® 9150 C-V2X chipset with integrated Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) capability to build connected car systems and integrate the systems into Nissan vehicles.
Nissan will perform V2X use case selection and develop test scenarios with key performance indicators (KPIs) for C-V2X technology validation. OKI, one of the leading companies in ITS, will bring their expertise in roadside unit (RSU) infrastructure and applications to demonstrate V2I as a viable technology for advanced traffic applications by integrating the Qualcomm® 9150 C-V2X chipset into their RSU.
Ericsson will join the V2N use case discussion, considering a combination of direct communication and LTE-A network technologies. NTT DOCOMO will provide an LTE-A network and V2N applications to demonstrate the benefits of complementary use of network-based communications for a variety of advanced automotive informational safety use cases.
Japanese telecommunications provider NTT DOCOMO announced that it succeeded in 12-channel MMT (MPEG Media Transport) transmissions of 8K video using 5G mobile technology during a test conducted on November 1 at its Yokosuka R&D center in collaboration with Sharp Corporation.
Transmission of compressed 8K video, the next generation of ultra-high definition video, requires a data rate of 80 Mbps on average per channel. In the case of current LTE mobile technology, it is difficult to achieve such a data rate for the stable, multiple-channel transmission of 8K video.
In the recent test, however, ultra-high speed, large-capacity 5G communications using MMT technology successfully transmitted stable multi-channel 8K video with a high bit rate to multiple devices.
Radio waves for wireless communications are constantly influenced by obstacles such as buildings, trees and terrain, as well as reflective objects, so reception errors are inevitable. In the recent test, however, an 8K video receiver with error detection/correction function was used in additional to error correction performed in the wireless layer of the 5G wireless transmission equipment, enabling the 8K video to be displayed with minimal disturbance.
NTT DOCOMO provided the 5G wireless system and video content while Sharp provided the ultra-high definition video transmission/display environment using 8K decoders and 8K displays. Also, the Japan Broadcasters Association supported 8K video encoding and MMT encoding.
Going forward, NTT DOCOMO plans to further test 8K video transmission via its 5G system, targeting commercial services for sports, surveillance, etc. that would deliver high-definition video with MMT-enabled synchronization to diverse devices and displays.
Japanese telecom provider NTT DOCOMO announced that – in a joint trial conducted with MediaTek, a Taiwanese semiconductor company – it has successfully developed a chipset to increase the spectral efficiency of mobile devices by up to 2.3 times compared to existing LTE technology.
The chipset combines DOCOMO's non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) radio access technology and MediaTek's multi-user interference cancellation (MUIC) technology, which is required to achieve NOMA.
NOMA multiplexes signals at a base-station transmitter to leverage the increased signal processing capacity of user devices and cancel interference among multiplexed user signals. MUIC removes interference from other users when a base station transmits a signal to a number of users simultaneously.
During the trial, three smartphone-sized devices embedded with the chipsets, each placed in a different location, received data that was transmitted simultaneously from a base station using the same frequency, while the transmission power of the signal transmitted to each device was adjusted.
Using the developed chipset, each device successfully eliminated interfering signals intended for the other devices and received only the intended data, resulting in up to 2.3 times greater spectral efficiency than that of single-user Multi Input Multi Output (MIMO).
DOCOMO is forging ahead with its development of 5G technologies, aiming to increase the signal processing capacities of user devices in populated urban areas and standardize 5G's radio interface and improve spectral efficiency.
Going forward, DOCOMO said it will continue to collaborate with world-leading vendors in its research and development of commercial 5G communications devices and services scheduled to launch in 2020.
Ericsson, PS Solutions Corp. (affiliated with SoftBank Group Corp.), and CKD Corporation, a supplier of actuation products, are collaborating on an update to “e-kakashi”, a platform which applies artificial intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies into agricultural processes. First introduced by PS Solutions in 2015, the second-generation “e-kakashi” platform will launch in March 2018.
“True collaboration is the only way to bring real automated IoT uses cases to life,” said Mikael Eriksson, Head of Ericsson Japan. “The combination of PS Solutions’ experience, applications and insight in the industry, along with the advanced features provided by Ericsson IoT, will create positive change for agriculture."
The Japanese word kakashi translates to scarecrow, but PS Solutions' “e-kakashi” does much more than frighten off pests. With a powerful combination of AI, IoT and cloud technology, “e-kakashi” is designed to maintain an ideal environment for almost any crop to grow in. Japanese manufacturer CKD Corporation, a pioneer in actuation, provides the electro/pneumatic devices that allow the IoT machinery to be controlled remotely.
The “e-kakashi” platform can easily integrate new IoT devices as agriculturalists need them. Through the Zero Touch Onboarding functionality of the Ericsson IoT Accelerator platform, devices are immediately accessible after installation. No physical control panels are needed, as all functions are handled in the cloud.
Zero Touch Onboarding, which allows devices to be onboarded to the IoT Accelerator platform and then managed through their lifecycles with ease, uses the Open Mobile Alliance Lightweight Machine to Machine (a protocol from the Open Mobile Alliance for machine-to-machine or IoT device management) and smart objects from The Internet Protocol for Smart Objects (IPSO) Alliance. These are complements to cellular IoT connectivity.
PS Solutions will use Ericsson IoT Accelerator’s building blocks with SoftBank’s cellular connectivity, which is also powered by Ericsson. Incorporating data on variables such as temperature, humidity and precipitation, “e-kakashi” uses AI to automatically optimize growing conditions. For example, to maintain the ideal temperature for growing tomatoes, “e-kakashi” adjusts greenhouse ventilation accordingly.
Using an intuitive app from PS solutions with comprehensive data visualization, the “e-kakashi” user can modify the AI-based standard settings to apply their own professional know-how.
The current solution monitors temperature, humidity, CO2 and other conditions, and guides what actions to take next based on the AI engine. With the support of analytics from Ericsson IoT Accelerator, the next generation of “e-kakashi” will enable higher automation by connecting with actuators.
Ericsson IoT Accelerator gives operators a low cost, reliable method to support enterprise IoT with a large number of connected devices.
With the rapid growth of IoT, there are great opportunities for operators to expand revenue with new services. PS Solutions' parent company, network operator SoftBank, has partnered with Ericsson to expand networks and increase IoT revenue streams in Japan. In April 2017, SoftBank began rolling out Ericsson solutions to support the deployment of cellular IoT services across Japan.

Meagan Duhamel and Eric Radford of Canada perform during the pair free event of the ISU World Team Trophy in Figure Skating in Tokyo, Saturday, April 13, 2013.
TORONTO – She’s looking forward to skate on a rink emblazoned with the Olympic rings. In Sochi, Canadian figure skater Meagan Duhamel will be skating with her pairs partner Eric Radford.
For the Winter Games, Global News asked a handful of Canadian athletes to recount how they trained everyday to share their tips on healthy eating before the big event.
Duhamel, 28, hails from Lively, Ont. and has taken home a bronze medal from the 2013 world championships. She’s also the 2012 and 2013 Canadian Champion.
Duhamel and Radford both have strong technical backgrounds – they can even perform the most difficult of the pairs jumps, the Triple Lutz. Take a look at a day in the life of Duhamel.
Global News: How tall are you and how much do you weigh?
Duhamel: I’m 4’11 and I weigh 106 pounds.
Global News: What does your training schedule look like?
Duhamel: I’m at the rink at 7:30 a.m. from Monday to Friday. I warm up my body off the ice for one hour and then train on the ice for about three hours until 11:30 a.m.
Mondays and Wednesdays include afternoon sessions with my choreographer followed with a private pilates class or a stretching/dance movement class. Tuesdays and Thursdays, I work with my gym trainer from 2:45 to 4:30 p.m.
On Friday afternoon, Duhamel said she unwinds with a sports therapy massage that can last up to three hours. Saturdays are her rest days and on Sundays she takes on hot yoga as a “light workout” to prepare for the upcoming week.
Global News: What does a typical day of meals look like? What’s your favourite indulgence?
Duhamel: I’m vegan so my meals are very specific. I eat a green smoothie every morning for breakfast. I usually use spinach, beets, bananas, peanut butter, chia seeds, coconut milk and cinnamon. It’s my favourite way to start the day!
My favourite indulgence dish is nachos – I use cheese that’s made without any dairy or soy, kidney beans, black beans and mango salsa. I also love sweets, like cupcakes and cookies but I do a lot of my own baking, all without eggs, milk or butter.
Global News: With training, are there certain tips you’d like to provide to Global News readers?
Duhamel: Keep your body healthy. Take care of it. By keeping your body in good health, your mind will stay strong and clear. Invest in your body, you need it to last a long time.
Global News: What are your healthy eating tips? What do you eat to fuel your training?
Duhamel: Well, I eat an entirely plant-based diet. I know the nutrients of almost everything I am putting into my body and I know what benefit I am getting as I eat it. I studied holistic nutrition and I am a certified holistic nutritionist.
I believe in a whole-foods diet filled with fruits, vegetables, whole grains, ancient grains, proteins and healthy fatty acids. Green vegetables, chia seeds, hemp seeds, flax seeds, ancient grains, avocado, quinoa, tempeh, beans and fruits are a main source of fuel.
When baking desserts, Duhamel uses spelt flour instead of white flour, agave nectar instead of sugar, flax seeds instead of eggs, and apple sauce instead of oil or butter, she told Global News.
Global News: What are you most excited about for the Olympics?
Duhamel: I’m excited about everything! I can’t wait to wear my Canada clothes proudly. I can’t wait to walk into Olympic stadium. I can’t wait to skate on the ice with the Olympic rings. And I can’t wait to stand on the Olympic podium!

Ben Spies said: "We came into 2007 looking to win two championships - Superstock and Superbike - and I told myself I wouldn't be satisfied with anything less than that.
“We got the Superstock title in Atlanta and now we won the Superbike Championship. I'd like to thank Yoshimura Suzuki and my crew for working hard all year and for giving me a great bike to race in the GSX-R1000.
“With this win, I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. At the beginning of the race, I thought about the fact that we only had 45 minutes left in the season. I knew it was time to get it done."
Mat Mladin admitted Spies was too much for him at Laguna.
He said: "Ben was stronger all weekend and I knew it. He got a chance to get by me and I didn't so much as pass him back as get sucked in. I had a few problems with lappers and Ben had put his head down.
“I did everything I could but in the end we just weren't fast enough today. Now I'm looking forward to the off-season to try and pick up my pace a little more and see if we can give it another shot next year."

MSG Dunbar – US Casualty in Syria – On March 30, 2018, MSG Jonathan J. Dunbar died from wounds received during combat operations near Manbij, Syria. A United Kingdom member of the Parachute Regiment also died. Five others were wounded and were evacuated for medical treatment.
MSG Dunbar, age 36, of Austin, Texas, was assigned to U.S. Army Special Operations Command, Fort Bragg, North Carolina. He was deployed in support of Operation Inherent Resolve.
He was born July 15, 1981, in International Falls, Minnesota, and graduated in 1999 from John B. Connally High School in Austin, Texas.
MSG Dunbar first entered the United States Army as an Infantryman in May 2005, completing his initial entry training at Fort Benning, Georgia. His first assignment was with Charlie Company, 1st Battalion, 325th Airborne Infantry Regiment, Fort Bragg, North Carolina, where he served as a Machine Gunner, Fire Team Leader, and Squad Leader. During his time with the 325th he deployed once to Afghanistan and once to Iraq in support of combat operations. In November of 2009, he transitioned to Charlie Company, 2nd Battalion, 38th Cavalry Regiment (Long Range Surveillance), Fort Hood, Texas, where he served for four years as a Squad Leader. During his time in Fort Hood, he deployed to Iraq once again in support of combat operations.
In 2013, MSG Dunbar was assigned to Headquarters, United States Special Operations Command, where he served as a Team Member and deployed three times in support of combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Dunbar’s military education includes the Basic Airborne Course, Combat Lifesaver Course, Basic Leader Course, Ranger School, Advanced Leaders Course, Pathfinder Course, Static Line Jumpmaster Course, Advanced Land Navigation Course, Senior Leaders Course, the Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape (SERE) Course, the Military Free Fall and Jumpmaster Course, and the Special Forces Sniper Course.
UK Casualty. The UK casualty was a member of The Parachute Regiment. He has been identified as Sergeant Tonroe of the 3rd Battalion, of the Parachute Regiment. He was embedded with US forces on a counter-Daesh operation when the incident occurred. There are some UK media reports saying Sergeant Tonroe was a member of the Special Air Service (SAS).
Incident location. Initial reports say the IED strike took place in or near Manbij, Syria. This area is in northern Syria not far from the Turkish border along the M4 highway between Aleppo to the west and and Kobane to the northeast. It is in the northeast of the Aleppo Governorate. The area of Manbij is ethnically diverse including Arabs, Kurds, Circassians, and Chechens. The M4 highway runs east – west just south of the Turkish border.
A Contested City. In 2012 Manbij was taken by Syrian rebels. In 2014 Islamic State fighters took control of city. After a Kurdish offensive, Manbij has been a Kurdish-held area – controlled by the YPG/SDF since mid-summer 2016. Since 2017 there has been a Coalition presence and the city has been a hub for the training of Syrian Democratic Front (SDF) fighters.

Earthjustice attorney Jan Hasselman, lead counsel to the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in their litigation, discusses the historic legal case and what lies ahead.
2,4-D is a component of Agent Orange, the notorious defoliant manufactured by Monsanto and Dow. USDA proposes to allow farmers to plant 2,4-D resistant corn and soy wherever they please without any government oversight, and downplays any and all impacts.
Heidi McIntosh, Managing Attorney, Rocky Mountain Office, Earthjustice: "The Antiquities Act was really a one-way designation authority that allows the president to designate monuments, but it doesn't grant the president any authority to reverse the designations of his predecessors. When [the president] exercises his power, he's standing in the shoes of Congress. In the same way a president can't, on his own, mend or revoke acts of Congress, he can't go back and amend or revoke monuments, either."
Jennifer Chavez, Staff Attorney, Earthjustice: "The states have shown that if there's not a strong federal minimum [of water standards], it will fall below that. [The Trump administration's aggressive approach to cutting regulations] is just ignoring history and evidence of what happens when regulations aren't in place."
Martin Wagner, Managing Attorney, Earthjustice: "We see that the administration is full of corporate representatives who absolutely show no interest in promoting the public good—real interests of human beings and the environment—in any way, much less in the place where the corporate interest has the opposite desire ... One of the things about these trade agreements that is really nefarious—they establish law that applies domestically that doesn't go through the democratic lawmaking process."
Our border communities need funding for schools, job training and environmental clean-up, not a divisive wall.

Notices of Death is a quest received from The Blackstone Irregulars Quest Board in Denerim. The Warden must deliver death notification letters to the wives of four deceased soldiers.
The Warden has to actually choose the option to deliver the letters as opposed to just telling them their husbands are dead, otherwise the quest may not mark itself as complete. If you have any companions with you and you say: "Would someone like to handle this for me?" they will deliver amusing one-liners.
Denerim Market District - Sara, located straight ahead from where you enter from the world map (by Marjolaine's house).
Dirty Back Alley - Tania, located in Denerim beside the cargo (across and to the left of Quaint Hovel).
Lake Calenhad Docks - Larana, located inside The Spoiled Princess.
Note: This quest cannot be completed after the Landsmeet as you will not be able to get to Irenia in Redcliffe.
Occasionally, even when choosing to deliver the letters, the quest still will not update. Nor will the letters disappear from the Warden's inventory, although the quest can still be completed.
Although there are only four widows, you will find five letters of condolence in your inventory after accepting the quest. The fifth letter remains in your inventory after you complete the quest.
If you do not talk to the innkeeper during The Urn of Sacred Ashes quest (which triggers the outside fight with the cultists), Larana may not re-appear, meaning the quest cannot be completed.

CycleVIN was formed to address a serious need in the power sports industry for reputable and up to date sources of VIN information on sport, touring, off-road and leisure vehicles. Until now, there has been no credible source of information on motorcycle accidents, thefts, or recalls that is searchable by a Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
Using the standard 17 digit VIN found on any vehicle manufactured or sold in the USA since 1981, CycleVIN provides a reliable and economical way to research the history of the motorcycles you are trying to buy or sell.
The automotive world has Carfax, and numerous other smaller providers for VIN checks that can accurately inform consumers about accidents and other serious damage to a car or truck. However, until now there has been no similar entity focused on motorbikes and powersports exclusively, and we at CycleVIN have a goal to make that a reality of the past.
Our stated goal is to become the primary source for Motorcycle and other Power Sports VIN Checks, and to be known as a reputable, reliable source of VIN check information in our industry. To do so, we have partnered with a wide range of information and data sources to collect the VIN information on almost every motor bike sold in the USA.
Our partners range from salvage motor cycle yards, insurance companies, banks and loan companies, DMV’s at each of the 50 states, federal motor vehicle associations, government databases, and even repair shops. These entities report their data weekly or monthly so that you can be assured you have the most current and accurate information on the motorcycle you wish to buy or sell. We strive to make sure each VIN check contains real and timely data to protect you from title washing, re-branding, and the sale of stolen vehicles which is something that is all too common in the bike industry . Another major part of our goal at CycleVIN is to stop the illegitimate sale of vehicles that have been damaged without disclosure. Vehicle Damage and Substandard repairs can cause major problems and the best way to know is to purchase a report and find out.
We have Motor Vehicle History Information available for Many different types of Motor Vehicles including but not limited to Motorcycles, ATVs, Side by Sides, Dirtbikes, Scooters, Mopeds, Snowmobiles, Trikes, Dune Buggys, Sand Rails, RUVs, UTVs & other types of Powersports. If you have any questions please feel free to contact us and we will do our best to get the information that you desire.

The tutor we can set you up with will match both your academic needs and your schedule, and we even have a satisfaction guarantee.
How can Farmington, Michigan, tutors help students prepare for exams and build a better understand of their courses?
Students who want to perform better on their exams need to first build a solid understanding of their coursework. This can be accomplished alone or with the support of a teacher.

If you feel like you could be getting more out of your education, it may be time to work with a private Farmington tutor.
Finding tutoring in Farmington is easy for students of all ages and grade levels. This is because we can connect you with a qualified tutor in the area in a variety of subject types. For example, a student at Harrison High School may not feel academically confident in their English course. This student could start meeting with a tutor in a one-on-one setting. Their tutor can then develop them a lesson plan that is based on their unique set of academic needs. This creates a learning environment where the student can thrive, getting the guidance of their tutor whenever they need it. Similarly, students at Beechview Elementary School can work with a tutor as a means of developing foundational academic skills that they will carry with them throughout their academic career.
Working with a Farmington tutor is possible even if you already have a busy schedule. Tutors are available who can work around your scheduling concerns and can meet with you when and where you want. Online tutoring is also available for students. Contact us today to get started.

Whatâs it like to transit the Panama Canal? How much it costs to go through is the first thing most people want to know, if only out of curiosity; those details are here. What’s the process of a transitÂ through the isthmus like? For those in our wake: a summary of Totemâs our experience, the resources that were helpful to us, and what we learned about how to transit safely.
âCristobal Signal Station, this is sailing vessel Totem.â After weeks of anticipation and planning, the VHF call to inform the port entry coordinator of Totemâs location marks the start of our canal transit.
This process began with research a few months before. Approach varies depending on whether you do it yourself or hire an agent. Despite a bias to DIY, we chose the latter to have an advocate for getting through in a timely fashion and avoid tramping around Colon (unsafe in the best of times, worse with the rioting this month).
Colon has a dismal reputation for personal safety and erupted in riots in March, so it was peace of mind that our agent did the leg work there. He also found us early transit dates when arriving boats were being assigned two to three weeks wait period.
Want to DIY? No problem, by all accounts. Good cruiser descriptions for their DIY transit to be found at Gone with the Wynns, White Spot Pirates, and ImpetuousToo.
A transit date is only assigned after your official measurement is complete and all canal fees are paid. This interval can take a few days in low season or a few weeks at peak. Waiting in Colon means either paying steep rates at Shelter Bay Marina (owning the monopoly!) or anchoring out where you 1) must not leave the boat unattended for security reasons, and 2) have no place to leave the dinghy, so itâs drop-offs / pickups only.
If your assigned transit date is too long to wait around Colon, there are two options. First, pay to fast track. We were quoted about $3,000 in addition to other canal fees to requestÂ an expedited transit from the ACP. Well that was nice to know! Alternatively, do a day sail east to historic Portobelo or go overnight to Guna Yala (San Blas). Getting to either can involve bashing during peak tradewinds; watch conditions.
Six humans is the minimum crew during transit: the captain, four line handlers, and an ACP advisor. Mairen and Siobhan were rejected as line handlers (on the unfair basis of their gender, as far as I could tell, but itâs not our call). Theyâd have done fine, but it was a bonus to have two friends aboard helping fill the role.
Cruising boats do whatâs called a handline transit: this means the lines between ship and shore are moved by human handlers. Commercial ships (or fancypants boats measuring 125â and more) get pulled through the locks by cables attached to locomotives.
Handline transit vessels have four possible configurations to pass through the locks. When your boat is measured, you can specify top two preferences with the admeasurer. Descriptions to prepare for locking through in different configurations is thoroughly detailed in the Mad About Panama ebook.
Transit begins by meeting your advisor at The Flats, an anchorage 2.5 miles from the first Caribbean-side lock. Totem was assigned a one-day transit, so we anchored overnight as the advisor was due to arrive before sunrise. Andrew and Tristan From Utopia II joined us as linehandlers (and entertainment!). When two other boats anchored nearby, we suspected that our raft partners had arrived. Just before dawn, an ACP vessel maneuvered in to deliver an advisor to each anchored boat.
The canal is roughly 37 miles long, most of which is the waterway of Lake Gatun and canal cuts between the trios of locks at each end. Entering from the Caribbean side, three sequential chambers of the Gatun locks lift vessels up around 90 feet. On the Pacific side, thereâs a brief motor across Lake Miraflores between the inland lock (Pedro Miguel) and the last two chambers (in front of the Miraflores visitor center) where boats are lowered back down.
With our advisor, Roy, on board things began to happen quickly. We were directed to create a raft with Totem in the middle. Roy dryly commented, âperfect, now we have big fenders to protect us.” We like Roy! The boats remained rafted through the first three locks, then separated to cross Lake Gatun, rafting up again to descend the last three locks.
As the center boat, Totem was responsible for primary propulsion of the raft and Roy was the lead advisor to direct all three boats. It also meant an easier trip for Totemâs line handlers. Once the raft was formed by securing bow, stern, and spring lines, our line-handlers became passengers.
Most cruising boats share the chamber with a commercial vessel. When locking up (towards the higher water in Lake Gatun), commercial boats enter first.Â Our âbuddy boatâ for the first series of locks was the 650â ro-ro (roll-on, roll-off car carrier), Sunlight Ace.
As the raft drives slowly into the open lock, four ACP handlers â two on each side of the lock walls â throw a small, weighted monkeyâs fist with messenger line attached down to the two boats on the outside of the raft. Line handlers on these boats tie the messenger lines to loops on to corresponding bow and stern lines. This does require that the line-handler know how to tie a knot! Our expectation was this was fast and furious, but it happens slowly. This is not the tricky part.
When messenger line and your line are joined, the shoreside line-handlers pull your lines up the lock walls and secure the loop on large bollards (big ship cleats). When boats are secure, the riveted steel plates on the massive lock doors begin to close.
What happens in the locks?
When the lock doors close and water level begins to change, the line handlers must tension (or loosen) the lines per advisor instructions. It sounds easy, right? But a line handler thinking about capturing the scene on the GoPro they have stuffed in a pocket may not respond when necessary. A cleat that is cluttered by junk on deck will make the line handlerâs job unnecessarily difficult. A language barrier between handler and/or skipper and/or and advisor can cause problems from missed or delayed communications. A side-boat advisor distracted by cell phone because primary advisor is in charge is dangerous too.
Once the change starts, it is critical to keep pace tightening or easing the lines to shore as directed. Something like 55 million gallons flow through in 10 minutes and the water movement is intense. Salt and fresh water donât like to mix, so when they flood together, lighter fresh water rushes over the salt water create currents on horizontal and vertical planes. If spider-leg lines holding your three-boat raft in place are not properly handled the raft can begin to spin, which is when bad things happen to boat.
Dry descriptions donât convey how heated action can be inside the chamber. Turbulent water can damage boats and humans. When locking âupâ to Lake Gatun, lines had to be tightened as the raft floated up to meet the top of each lock, shrinking the distance from boat to bollard. Locking âdownâ meant loosening lines. If not closely watched, the lines really load up. One of the boats next to us was sloppy with easing the lines when the raft started to shift. The crew realized and scrambled to secure the line that was pulling from them, and twice, nearly caught hand/fingers in the process. So much better to just pay attention!
When a massive ship just in front of you spins up the props to move out of the lock, there is a lotÂ ofÂ wash. Totemâs engine in forward with moderate RPMs to hold station against four knots of current. All hands must pay close attention to advisor direction to keep the boats centered and pointing straight.
Massive steel lock gates in the canal. Does this make it look gentle? It’s not!
Once turbulence subsides, the raft slowly motors forward. If another lock is immediately adjacent (this happens three times), the shoreside handlers walked the raft like they were a trio of dogs on a leash. If thereâs not another lock immediately ahead, shoreside handlers will remove lines from bollards and toss them into the water for the boats to pull in.
When dismantling the raft for Lake Gatun and at the exit, the connected boats first motor ahead a safe distance to be clear before separating under the advisorâs direction.
By the time we reached Lake Gatun, it felt like the day should be half over â but it was barely 10 oâclock in the morning! Time to hydrate and pass the snacks.
If assigned a two-day transit, you spend the night tied to a large buoy just outside the channel. Lake Gatun is an artificial lake full of tree-stumps and other anchor-eating debris, so itâs mooring only! We initially hoped for this overnight stay, to watch for crocs and listen for howler monkeys. In hindsight the one-day transit was nice to get it done, though long at 11 hours.Â Thanks to our friend Tammy for this photo of their Gatun mooring!
From here itâs a motorboat ride through history on the big-ship highway to Pedro Miguel locks on the far side. Mad About Panamaâs ebook details it all, from how to spot Noriegaâs jail to the crane called Titan that was built by Hitlerâs Germany and claimed by the US as a war prizeâ¦itâs still used to service lock doors.
Locking down the three chambers reverses a few aspects of locking up â besides the obvious descent. Cruising boats enter first, with the commercial vessel behind. Boats float at the same level as shoreside handlers, so Monkeyâs fists are tossed across instead of dropped down, a less intimidating prospect for the weighted line.
Lousy picture – you get the idea!
Notes on our transit, reflections over the last two weeks, have gelled some perspective on our transit: what worked, what could have been done better.
Foremost, all advisors are not created alike. Roy was excellent, and helped us have a problem-free trip. Advisors adjacent to Totem were more attentive to their smartphones than the line handlers. This caused a few exciting moments â all ended well, anyway.
The advisor isnât the captainâyouâre responsible for boat and crew!âbut our number one takeaway to transit safely is that it’sÂ essential to work tightly with the advisor. They understand the lock conditions: some instructions may seem odd, like directions to turn the boat to point towards a lock wall, but itâs for a reason. There could be a four knot current deflected by the wall, and their direction is to prevent bad things from happening.
Our advisor, Roy, was all that and a bag of chips. We scored with this great guy on board!
The advisor is assigned; you donât have control over that. Hereâs what you can control and do to prepare.
Clear decks. The area around bow and stern cleats must be as clear as possible. We moved stern rail mounted outboard to rest on deck near Totemâs mast to free up space near the stern cleats.
Youâre either a line handler or youâre not. If you want to take photos or text or adjust your GoPro or message Facebook friends or, or, or, when in the locks, then you are not a line handler.
Fair leads! You know your boat: if the bow line has to pass through the bow pulpit for a clear path to the cleat, then have it run that way at the start. Re-leading in the moment takes time you may not have if currents start spinning the raft.
Stern lines: Jamie felt these took the most load: a strategy to consider is running them to a cockpit winch with the stern cleat as a guide. This gives far better control when easing a loaded line and more muscle to tension when required.
Repeat the instruction given by the advisor. This makes the advisor’s job easier by confirming you heard and are responding to the action called for. It may serve to clarify the advisorâs intentions when issuing rapid instructions.
Mitigating an un-engaged advisor. If the lead advisor is distracted or communication is poor (and even if theyâre not), proactively talk through maneuvers before they need to happen. We felt the boats rafted to us struggled a couple of times due to less attentive advisors.
PAY ATTENTION! The lead advisor (who is not necessarily on your boat) may call for rapid engine and or steering changes. One of the boats rafted to us wasâ¦ less attentive. It created a couple of fire drills and added to our burden to prevent the raft from spinning.
Totem and her fenders I mean lock mates: a nearly matched set of Ovnis.
Start at Noonsite:Â succinct, solid orientationÂ for the process.
Ready for details? They’re all in Mad About Panamaâs website and very useful $1.99 ebook. If you read just one guide to prepare, this should be it.
Also helpful isÂ The Panama Cruising Guide (Bauhaus) but it’s very expensive if you only want canal info. Invaluable for Guna Yala, however, a good all-around cruising guide for Panama.
Totem is now northbound from Panama, lingering off Costa Rica for a better window to get across the Papagayos. Weâll cross our circumnavigation track in Zihuatanejo, Mexico, in the next few weeks. If youâll be in the neighborhood, let us know!

2. Why do you think we try to bargain with God to do things in our lives?
3. Where are places we tend to overlook God’s work in our relationships?
4. Why is salvation considered a miracle? How does that change the way we think about it?
5. Have you been in the waiting like God’s people were for 430 years? What did you do?
6. If God showed up in some of your key relationships right now how would they change? Would he end any? Would he interject grace into any and restore them?
7. What would it look like for us to be people who wait on the Lord’s miraculous hand like the Hebrew people did while they were in Egypt?

Well, Chaim Boruch is settling in very nicely with his new baby sister and I am overjoyed at his new found acceptance of baby Shaina.
I find it amazing how time has given Chaim Boruch a new look on life.
He actually doesn’t mind being close to Shaina and has even laughed and smiled at her and is more intrigued than resentful.
Sometimes I wonder about how ‘time’ really plays such a huge part in life and specifically, in the life of a special child.
I wonder about the worries in my heart and how that, G-d willing, there will be a day when once again time will have transformed my worries into beautiful wings that will help my child fly.
Until then it is the struggle and inner battle to keep the spirits high and the gratitude at its peek.
When I see Chaim Boruch smile at Shaina, I know the world smiles too.
← Chaim Boruch has a new Baby Sister!
