K-beauty is rich, complex and very innovative. Stereotypes and preconceptions are alive and well, but Korean cosmetics are slowly finding their way into the limelight outside of Asia. It was about time!
A cliché maybe, but ever since I was a little girl, I've always been a true Beauty addict. K-Beauty (= Korean Beauty) is definitely not news to me but if I'm honest, until quite recently I just observed it from afar. Sure, I've noticed the interesting trends and products but it was all a bit too "kawaii" (= cute in Japanese) for my taste. Or so I thought!
I must admit, as recently as last year, I would have been surprised, to hear that 'Made in Korea' skincare was a sign of quality, or that South Korea was at the epicenter of cosmetic innovation. I would not have expected to be using as many South Korean products with so much enthusiasm!
Of course, before really digging into K-Beauty, I'd used a BB cream and also tried one or two sheet masks but all this avalanche of cute and funny packagings didn't seem all that serious to me, nor adapted to my needs, especially for skincare.
I'm nearly 40 years old, I like sophisticated and effective skincare products and I didn't believe I could find these features in a cream with a packaging of a cute kawaii panda-shaped pot! (NB: I know that the word kawaii is Japanese and not Korean but in the mind of many Westerners, this word is strongly associated with the image of K-Beauty, often described as "Kawaii Beauty ").
However, in several of my favorite skincare blogs (mostly British and American) I was starting to see more and more references to South Korean cosmetics. And they weren't referring to the funny and cute gimmicky products which Western, and especially French markets seem to use to represent them!
Just go to the K-Beauty section in any French or Emirati Sephora and you'll quickly see that the focus is clearly on cute "kawaii" packaging brands, the "easy" and cheap products to buy, like banana-shaped hand creams or cherry-scented lip balms.
But as I realized during my trip to Seoul last Fall, the Korean beauty market embodies far more sophisticated and technical cosmetics. Certainly far more than the K-Beauty's selection of the European distributors would lead you to believe (it's the same in the Middle East, the Sephora K-Beauty section in Dubai is very similar to the French Sephora one). Based on this selection of products, you could easily think that Korean beauty products are mainly aimed at a young, trendy clientele looking for fun and cute products to try. Where the brand isn't important, with gimmicky products, made for impulse purchases.
Western beauty customers can get confused by Korean cosmetics for many reasons over and above the cute factor.
SkincareDO YOU NEED AN ESSENCE? Recently, and probably thanks to the influence of Asian beauty, a new type of product appeared on most skincare addicts radar: essences. Read more First, some Korean beauty products are not very well known in our countries (for example, essences, ampoules, sheet masks) and the layering skincare routine in itself is perceived by many as quite complex. There are so many different products, and the skincare routine can be overwhelming, especially for the average Western cosmetics customer. The typical approach to beauty in the West is usually much more minimalist. European and American consumers love multi-tasking products. Help me reduce the time spent in the bathroom rather than the opposite. It's not a coincidence if the only Korean product that has had a smashing success so far in the West has been the BB Cream, a multitasking cream (skincare, makeup, and sunscreen in one product)!
The ingredients used in Korean cosmetics are often considered too "exotic". Western consumers are confused at first when they see the unusual ingredients used in K-Beauty skincare products: snail slime, bee venom, mushrooms, fermented roots… Without the context you may think you're looking at the list of ingredients from a magic potion rather than beauty products!
Western consumers sometimes fear the addition of "whitening" ingredients. In beauty, the vocabulary matters, and the same products will sell better in Western markets with the word "brightening" or even "for hyperpigmentation". The ingredients are usually the same but the Western clientele is not particularly fond of the milky white / alabaster skin esthetic that the Koreans love.
In the West, Korean brands aren't necessarily recognized for their strong identity as a brand. There are several reasons behind this. Stores which distribute them, tend to highlight the bestseller products rather than the brand itself. For Tony Moly, for example, apple or cherry lip balms or their fun banana hand creams are well known, but not many people know that the brand also sells more sophisticated Ginseng anti-aging products that are quite popular in Korea. As a result, for customers, it's quite complicated to understand the overall concept of these brands and also to feel a connection with the brand. Customer loyalty for Korean brands is tricky in these conditions. Having just a small selection of their products, which only partially represents the brand and often distorts the real identity of the brand.
The "famous faces" used by Korean brands to be their image are relatively unknown outside of Asia. The K-drama actress (= Korean soap operas) Jun Ji-hyun is a beauty icon in South Korea. Her endorsement of a product can result in said product being completely out of stock. Just mentioning the name of a lipstick has resulted in it being out of stock all over Asia for months. She's also the face of several Asian beauty brands. But she's quite unknown in Europe, the Middle East or the United States (unless you're a fan of K-dramas). At the same time, the reverse is true and the faces of L'Oreal in France or the US are difficult to "export" to Asia for the same reasons. This is rarely a successful communication strategy for products being distributed worldwide.
Finally, there are of course the good old clichés, with, first and foremost, the fear of poor quality, caused by the bad reputation of Asian products in general in the West. I've often heard people assume (wrongly) that most Asian products are counterfeit, that the production conditions are unreliable, that the regulations are less strict than in Europe or the US… The label 'Made in Korea' is not yet the same type of guarantee of quality in the spirit of the Westerners, like 'Made in Japan' can be, for example.
Looking closer, the reality of the beauty business in South Korea is quite different. Koreans are indeed very fond of cosmetics. Korean men are actually the biggest consumers of skincare products in the world. As a result, more and more Korean brands are coming out with non-gendered skincare/makeup products because the demand for unisex beauty products is very strong (like the Korean brand Cosrx and its brand new cushion foundation, with a very neutral black and gray packaging).
Korean consumers are also well "educated" about their skin, and the best ways to take care of your skin.
PlacesSULWHASOO FLAGSHIP STORE, SEOUL SOUTH KOREA During my trip to Seoul last September, I was lucky enough to visit this architectural gem that is the sublime flagship store of the very prestigious Korean skincare brand Sulwhasoo. Read more Beauty in Korea is the perfect combination of centuries-old knowledge of ingredients (ginseng, green tea, fermented ingredients …) and the latest cosmetic innovations: a match made in heaven! Korean laboratories are indeed the most innovative of all at the moment. Many Western brands are very well aware of that and come to produce some of their products in Korea, especially those they want to introduce as groundbreaking products because the cosmetic technology available in Korea is considered to be more than 10 years ahead of the rest of the world.
I'm thinking for example of Sisley and their new cream, the Baume-en-eau à la Rose Noire, which uses a technology called Water-Drop, and allows this balmy texture cream to turn into some very fine water drops (as its name suggests) when you apply it on the skin. This technology has been available in Korea for several years already and has been used in many brands such as Dr Jart, for example.
Some Korean cosmetic brands have been around for over 50 years and have a prestigious reputation throughout Asia, like the gorgeous brand Sulwhasoo. To put this in context, Sulwhasoo products are usually gifted to VIPs, first ladies and women heads of states visiting South Korea to praise the merits of Korean cosmetics.
It's, therefore, wrong to think that all Korean brands are new and trendy and prone to disappear after only a few years in the store.
However, it's true that the number of cosmetic brands has literally exploded in Korea in the recent years: 5 years ago, there were 1200 brands in Korea and in 2017, there are nearly 10,000 (source: Fat Mascara podcast). The Korean beauty market is extremely dynamic.
Innovation and creativity are key success factors for these companies as they launch on average 20 to 30 new products per year (on average, Western cosmetic brands release around 10 to 20 per year). The Research and Development budget of South Korean brands is significant. Amorepacific, a huge conglomerate of Korean beauty brands, a bit like L'Oreal or Estée Lauder, last year spent nearly $100 million in R & D (source: Beautytap).
Koreans are a very demanding and educated beauty clientele and if a product is gimmicky, it won't survive in the extremely competitive world of the Korean beauty market. Most Western brands know it very well and come to test their products with this very picky clientele. If a beauty product passes the test and is successful in the difficult to impress Korean market, it's highly likely it will please the rest of the world (source: Fat Mascara podcast).
The technique of layering, which consists in the application of several products on top of each other, in layers (as the name suggests), is certainly not something the average Western beauty consumer is used to doing. When you understand the rules, it's not as eccentric and excessive as you may think. It's a very good method to maintain the optimum hydration of the skin and ensure a deep moisturizing action. In fact, layering products with liquid textures allow a much deeper hydration of the skin than one layer of thick cream that will stay on the surface.
It's a technique that many beauty addicts know and have been using for years (without necessarily naming it) because it has proven itself to be very efficient and gives excellent results.
In the press outside of Asia, journalists looking for clickbait headlines still speak of super long Korean routines with 10 or 15 steps, but the reality of layering in South Korea is much more pragmatic. Most Korean women have far simpler routines with 4 or 5 products. But these products are always very well chosen, with the right ingredients and tailored to the needs of their skin.
Last but not least, Koreans are well aware that UV protection is the most effective anti-aging step. I really wish that everybody would be inspired because the sun is recognized as the main source of photo-aging. During my trip to Seoul last September, I loved to see how so many Koreans sought for shade at all costs when they were outside and I even saw large umbrellas at the crossroads of the big street crossings, set up there to create shadow while waiting to cross. Korean people, and Asian people, in general, protect themselves a lot from the sun all year round to preserve the youth and health of their skin.
Such a cultural difference with France for example where sunscreen products are still associated with the beach and sun-bathing. The daily protection against UV, all year-round, is not yet standard practice (but some brands are starting to introduce sunscreen products that aren't pushing the beach type colors. Like for example, the French brand Bioderma and its skin perfector SPF30 as well as its mist SPF30 Hydrabio, products designed for daily use and in the city.
Korea is now more inclined to export its renowned beauty expertise beyond Asia, but that hasn't always been the case. Korea's main customer for cosmetics has been its neighbor, China for a very long time. Around the spring of 2017, China banned the export of Korean cosmetics to "punish" South Korea, as a result of a military decision taken by the South Korean government (notably the deployment of a defense system against missiles called THAAD), to which China is firmly opposed. The situation has since settled down between the two countries, but Korea knows that it can no longer depend on just one single country for the export of its products in these unstable times and that the Korean Beauty industry's export strategy needs to open up and adapt to other markets.
Naturally the first step of this opening was towards the United States, with which Korea has always had strong strategic, commercial and political ties. The presence of a strong Korean-American community in the US has of course helped with this process. Korean immigration in the United States is even the third largest in the country (after Mexicans and Filipinos).
As a result, K-Beauty has quickly become an integral part of the US cosmetics landscape. There has been a real shift in the perception of Korean cosmetics among American consumers in recent years. Considered initially with a bit of skepticism ("A snail slime product? Say whaat, did you say that was French or Korean!?"), Korean beauty products are now distributed much more widely and are almost becoming common beauty products in the United States, easier to find, and in almost any American drugstore.
This desire to establish themselves in the Western market has also pushed the Korean beauty brands to adapt their offer. For example, their famous "whitening" products are described instead as "brightening" products or made to help even out the pigmentation of the skin. The treatment of hyperpigmentation is also a common demand in the Western hemisphere where, as we have seen, sun protection is not taken seriously enough or something people do regularly. Dark spots are indeed one of the consequences of too much sun exposure.
Another consequence of the desire to adapt to the Western market: the range of colors of the Korean makeup products is getting wider (it was about time!). In Korea, the choice of shades is often very limited. Usually, there are only two shades, light with yellow undertones and light with pink undertones. But in the United States, a makeup brand wouldn't expect a decent launch of a foundation with only two colors. These days, the notion of inclusivity in makeup is everywhere and it's so refreshing! Inclusivity is the principle of addressing different skin tones in its makeup range, not only white skins. I'm thinking for example of Fenty Beauty, Rihanna's makeup brand which launched with 40 shades of foundation. It made quite a strong impression in the makeup world, in a good way!
So when Amorepacific decided to launch its two popular brands on the American market, Innisfree and Laneige, their color range had been completely redesigned and the two brands now offer a color palette much more suitable to the diverse skin tones of American consumers.
On the other hand, more and more Korean brands are establishing themselves in the US market as brands with a comprehensive product range, and they're no longer focusing on their bestsellers like in the past (it's still the case for certain brands though, as you can see in some drugstores like Target, CVS etc). Indeed, you still see a lot of K-Beauty shops in American stores with a selection of "hero-products" but some of the key brands have made the choice to open branches in the United States and distribute a substantial part of their catalog (brands like Belif, Dr Jart,and several other brands from the Amorepacific group). Their marketing and advertising campaigns are bespoke for the US, by American based teams. The brands that choose this strategy stand out more and more from the "K-Beauty shops" and in some cases launch their range of products without even mentioning to consumers that they're from Korea. This is the case with the brand Dr Jart, for example, with its very handy brand name because few people know that it's a Korean brand, and imagine it is an American medical brand. There's also the example of the luxury cosmetic brand Sulwhasoo, that launched in the Nordstrom department store with most of its catalog, and without being relegated to the "K -Beauty " department.
Communication-wise, all of these Korean cosmetics brands and their distributors are increasingly using their best advocates, K-Beauty bloggers. They're often asked to spread the word and talk to consumers (for example, the K-Beauty blogger pioneer 50 shades of snail works as a beauty editor for the online store of K-Beauty Beautytap). Many online shops that specialize in K-Beauty actually produce informative videos and an editorial / blog sections on their sites to "educate" the consumers about these new routines and products. Bloggers are considered experts and even consultants that brands don't hesitate to collaborate with, to improve their content. The former K-Beauty e-shop Memebox (one of the first in the US) even decided to stop selling products and to focus on information for K-Beauty consumers, aiming to be a kind of Tripadvisor of K-Beauty.
Is it possible that this approach in the American market, more open to K-Beauty, can spread to the rest of the world?
Of course, the situation in North America is quite specific for a lot of reasons. First of all, there's the strong Asian community among the population, with a better understanding of K-Beauty, especially if it's popularized by Asian-American influencers like YouTubers Hey Claire, Jen Clothesencounter, Chriselle Lim etc).
In addition, the beauty market in the US is massive and always looking for new services & products. It's an extremely dynamic market and K-Beauty offers something that is both new, different, and exciting for consumers, eager to discover new things.
Many American beauty trends influence the rest of the world and usually spread very quickly. It's therefore very likely that you'll see more and more Korean cosmetic brands in other markets such as Europe or the Middle East.
K-Beauty is so much more than a panda-shaped packaging. It's a rich and complete cosmetic offer, hiding many different facets.
The fun and cool aspect was mainly the only one visible in the past, easy to understand and use. But Korean Beauty also includes several beauty brands with a strong identity, heritage and totally able to appeal to a demanding Western clientele.
The more technical side of K-Beauty is only just starting to get proper visibility outside of Asia and the consumers discovering it will hopefully understand that K-Beauty goes far beyond that cute packaging. To express itself fully, however, the complexity and richness of their identity needs to be presented and explained in the right way to neophyte consumers. Let's hope the comprehensive approaches used by the luxury K-beauty brands will inspire the budding K-beauty brands of tomorrow.
At the moment, most of South Korea's commercial efforts to export its cosmetics have been focused on the United States, but Europe is clearly the next big milestone. The Korean group Amorepacific chose Paris for the opening of the first European corner of their prestigious brand Sulwhasoo. The brand is now under the beautiful dome of the Galeries Lafayette Hausmann in Paris, a highly strategic location in the European beauty world. This department store is a beautiful showcase and it's probably only the beginning of the rise for such prestigious K-Beauty groups and brands in Europe!

Coming from a heritage where jewellery is a treasured artefact, Priya, from an early age has been passionate about body ornaments. Having initially studied Chemistry, Priya's passion for making jewellery started after her travels to Sri Lanka in 2003, where she learnt the art of hand-crafting a piece of fine jewellery from a traditional goldsmith. The concept behind Priya's work was to create a modern version of traditional Indian jewellery; jewellery that is unique yet worn universally. The inspiration for the collections came from historic Mughal architecture and brocades seen in Indian saris. Lines are picked out from intricate repetitive patterns seen in Jali and Zari works, and translated into simple geometric drawings. These drawings are then transformed into linear 2D and 3D architectural forms using computer aided design. The outcome for each design is a decorative motif, the Lotus flower, symbolic in Hinduism as being associated with beauty. Priya works in precious metals (silver and gold) and gemstones. All work is available in gold and can be set with any precious gemstone on commission.


Horror is a genre that is particularly difficult to get right, and due to that reason, Hollywood often doesn't care if it's done right since most horror movies will at least make a little over their budget, horror being cheap to produce but relatively popular with audiences. Most horror relies on jump scares to elicit a fight or flight reaction rather than true scares, characters making obviously bad decisions to move the plot along because if those in the film acted intelligently there would be no more story, and gore because it appeals to that part of us that likes seeing things we know we shouldn't be. Good horror movies rely on psychology to get their scares, the cheap tricks are sometimes there, but are more of a distraction and the real horror comes from, usually, the unknown, whether that unknown be a monster we've never seen before, something lurking just out of sight, or our senses being fooled into believing misinformation. The very best horror films are just like good horror films, but they also are using our fear to allow us to experience very real world traumas and tribulations through the filter of metaphor. Lights Out is an example of those very best horror films.
While I will not reveal any details about the plot still, I cannot discuss this film anymore without at least giving clues as to what happens in the film, so if you want to remain 100% completely spoiler free skip to the last paragraph just above my rating. If you don't mind some hints when discussing themes or you've already seen Lights Out, then keep on reading.
and understanding what the meaning underneath the surface of the movie is the key to why that is. This is a film that in a way has to be viewed inside out. If we take it purely at face value, it's an okay jorror film with some major flaws, but if you understand why Sandberg made this movie, you can see that what seem like flaws are smart decisions and making the film any other way would detract from what he is trying to accomplish.
Past this point there will be things you may not want to see.
Lights Out is not a film about a ghost, or fear of the dark, or any typical horror trope, but rather it's a film about the way a member of a family with a mental illness can make those closest to them suffer. It had to be done as a horror film, because to do it any other way would seem too insensitive to the person suffering from mental illness as this movie is not meant to evoke any sympathy for them, but instead to show what those around them go through. Sometimes people are unable to take the struggle of trying to help a loved one, and they leave and never come back, an option not available to the children who have a parent suffering from madness.
Looking at Lights Out as a film just trying to scare us, it's still good, but it leaves a lot unanswered. Looking at it as a metaphor, however, and we see that those things unanswered not only don't need to be answered, but would actually detract from the film's purpose if they were addressed. It's not a question of leaving the unknown as the unknown to elicit fear, either, it's because those things left unanswered are there purely to further the plot and are not part of the overall themes of a family dealing with mental illness. To answer those things left open ended by film's end would definitely be possible, but would distract from the message director and writer Sandberg is giving to us.
The cast all does a good job, and of special note is Gabriel Bateman as the youngest sibling in the family, Martin. While no performance here is particularly great, they are all solid and Gabriel may do the best job of all despite the fact that he is only, well I'm not sure exactly how old, but very low double digits in age at the very most. David Sandberg as the film's director and writer of the original short film (Eric Helsserer is the writer of this screenplay) is the real star of Lights Out. It seems he was given limited resources to make his movie, and he used every one of them to their greatest effect making a movie that relies on what's not seen rather than on special effects, on action and dialogue rather than on A-list stars, and on claustrophobia rather than expansive sets.
Okay, here's where you can all start reading again.
I have no idea if Lights Out will ultimately end up being a classic of horror, but aside from big names being attached it has all the makings of a movie that should be. It does scare, it scares the bejeesus out of you and that's coming from someone who is aware of horror movie tricks and rarely falls for them, but more importantly it scares you for a reason. When you walk out of Lights Out you haven't just been entertained, you've been shown what life is like for far too many around the world who have to suffer alongside a family member in pain. That is what horror movies are for, to entertain, yes, but also to make us understand what we normally cannot perceive without help. If you are the type that hates loose ends and need every detail wrapped up by movie's end, you will be annoyed by this one, I guarantee it. If you can put that aside, though, you are in for a treat.


It is crucial that global shippers have the correct import licenses and export permits for all shipments. For the import and export of goods or intellectual property, PRECISION Trade Compliance identifies line item license requirements, any available exceptions for licenses and has the ability stop a shipment of a controlled product. If an export license or import permit is required and available, the system manages the license by date, quantity and/or value and decrement against them accordingly. The system supports dual use licenses (based on ECCN determination) and permits guarantees based on where the goods are being shipped to and from.
Any company that trades globally knows the importance of compliance. However not all companies are equal when it comes to mitigating risks. In this white paper, we discuss the importance of due diligence and how to avoid compliance pitfalls in a world of increasingly complex trade regulations.

Our Halloween Party! – Live, Love, Simple.
We had our little Halloween party on Saturday. It was everything that I'd hoped for. Preparing for a party is a lot of work — cooking, cleaning, decorating — but when it all comes together, it's so worth it. We all had a great time with lots of yummy food, laughs, and a fun costume contest. My monster eye-ball deviled eggs were a smash! The gorgeous decorations from Papir Vendage were a huge hit, too. Here are some photos from our bash.
How did you do it all, I mean I am always a mess, running around & managing everything in my parties. You look so calm. So proud of you. The food, the decorations everything looks amazing. We don't have Halloween here. I loved your costumes. You all looked so cute. If we ever come to the States, I am definitely choosing The Halloween time!


CONVENT - Authorities say only one person is still unaccounted for after a tornado passed over an RV park in St. James Parish, flipping trailers and killing two people Tuesday afternoon.
St. James Parish Sherriff Willy Martin said first responders have located 85 percent of the 300 people that usually reside at Sugar Hill RV Park. Martin said 160 small trailers were damaged.
Martin confirmed Tuesday night that two people were killed and 30 were hurt. Eighteen people were taken to Our Lady of the Lake Hospital in Baton Rouge. It was unclear where the remaining 12 people were hospitalized.
First responders worked through the night searching through flipped trailers to make sure that everyone who was at the park at the time of the storm has been rescued. Martin said Wednesday that the search found no additional injuries or fatalities.
Martin said that the search has currently been suspended, but there are plans to resume again later Wednesday.
Governor John Bel Edwards joined the search Tuesday night.
The National Weather Service is currently on site to deteremine the strength of the tornado that passed over the park.


Sophia Verkleeren earned Most Outstanding Swimmer honors while Ithaca, Maine-Endwell and O-M won team titles at Dr. Jack Thomas Invitational.
Horseheads sophomore Sophia Verkleeren delivered the type of performance more often reserved for the November postseason Saturday at the Dr. Jack Thomas Swimming Invitational at Ernie Davis Academy's Thomas Natatorium.
Verkleeren earned Most Outstanding Swimmer honors with two individual victories and two relay wins.
Team champions were Ithaca in Class A, Maine-Endwell in Class B and Odessa-Montour in Class C.
Verkleeren won the 200-yard individual medley in a pool-record 2:08.87 and the 500 freestyle in 5:07.86, with both times well under the state standards of 2:12.84 and 5:14.65. Saturday marked the first time this season Verkleeren has topped the state cut in the 500. She also qualified for states previously in the 100 backstroke, her top event but one she didn't swim Saturday.
"I've kind of struggled this season so far getting near my times, especially in the 500," she said. "I think it just feels really good to be back and in a zone where I'm dropping times."
She joined Lindsay McCawley, Kennidi TenEyck and Hannah Ott in winning the medley relay (1:53.99). Verkleeren's teammates in the 200 free relay were TenEyck, Marissa Telech and Ott.
Verkleeren said her goals for the rest of the season include breaking the Section 4 record in the backstroke and improving on last year's state finish of 14th in that event.
"At states I want to get in the top 10," she said. "I just missed it last year, so I'm really hoping to do that this year and just have a good meet. I want to break 57 in the 100 back."
Another swimmer of note was Lansing sophomore Grace Kadlecik, who won two events and eclipsed the state standard in both. Her time was 1:55.81 in the 200 freestyle and it was 53.38 in the 100 freestyle.
Other winners below the state cut were Owego free Academy's Summer Pierce in the 100 butterfly (57.12) and Chenango Valley's Lindsey Rice in the 100 breaststroke (1:07.94). Pierce also was below the standard in the IM with her runner-up swim of 2:11.61.
The runner-up finish from Maine-Endwell's Maria Pignatelli in the 100 butterfly (59.45) also topped the standard.
Ithaca's title was fueled by wins from Gwendolyn Lindberg in the 100 backstroke (1:02.50), Chloe Giovannoni in the 50 freestyle (25.61), and the 400 freestyle relay of Elise Nishii-Kim, Lexi Moravek, Willa Royce-Roll and Chloe Giovannoni.


Faeries ~ Elves ~ Gnomes ~ Nature Spirits ~ Devas ~ Unicorns ~ Dragons - The Realm of Fae is filled with all of these wonders and more. Every tradition in the world at some point taught that all aspects of Nature have spirit associated with them. When we have this phenomenon of common threads - common teachings – happening all over the world, especially when those traditions and societies had no contact with each other, it should make little bells go off in our head. It is a reminder that there is something universal – something truly wonderful – happening around us.

Gunnar Olof Hyltén-Cavallius, född 18 maj 1818 i Vislanda, död 5 juli 1889 i Skatelöv, var en svensk diplomat, folklivsforskare och etnolog.

Biografi
Gunnar Olof Hyltén-Cavallius var son till kontraktsprosten Carl Fredrik Cavallius och hans hustru Anna Elisabet Hylténius. Liksom sina syskon, bland vilka kan nämnas sjöofficeren och botanisten Gustaf Erik Hyltén-Cavallius och apotekaren och kemisten Carl Erengisle Hyltén-Cavallius, bildade han, enligt morfaderns önskan, sitt efternamn som en kombination av faderns och moderns namn.

Hyltén-Cavallius blev filosofie magister i Uppsala 1839 och blev därefter anställd vid Kungliga biblioteket samma år, och blev 1852 förste amanuens. Han var direktör för Kungl. Maj:ts hovkapell och spektakler åren 1856-1860. Han var sedan chargé d'affaires vid brasilianska hovet åren 1860-1864, men måste av hälsoskäl avgå från tjänsten. Han återvände till Sverige och förvärvade år 1866 släktgården Sunnanvik i Skatelövs socken, Kronobergs län, som då fallit ur släktens ägo efter 200 år. Han blev ledamot av Kungliga Samfundet för utgivande av handskrifter rörande Skandinaviens historia 1856 och hedersledamot av Kungliga Vitterhets Historie och Antikvitets Akademien 1883.

Hans främsta insats gäller svensk arkeologisk och etnografisk forskning och han grundade Sveriges första landsortsmuseum, nämligen Smålands museum i Växjö. år 1867. Han var också en av grundarna av Svenska fornskriftstälskapet (1843), Konstnärsgillet i Stockholm (1845) och Svenska fornminnesföreningen (1869).

Bland hans verk märks främst Svenska folksagor och äfventyr (utgivna tillsammans med George Stephens) 1844-49, (nya upplagor 1853, 1915-16, och 1986), Sveriges historiska och politiska visor (1853), samt Wärend och wirdarne. Försök i svensk ethnologi (1863-1868, senaste upplaga 2018). Hyltén-Cavallius författade även ett historiskt skådespel, Dackefejden (1846), som samma år spelades på Kungliga teatern. Han efterlämnade en handskriven självbiografi Ur mitt framfarna liv, som i något förkortat form utgavs 1929.

Hans hustru Sophia Margareta var dotter till Zacharias Hæggström och Eva Burström. Han ligger begravd på Skatelövs kyrkogård och hans gravsten har utseendet av en runsten. Hans sonson var regissören Ragnar Hyltén-Cavallius.

Hyltén-Cavalliusföreningen grundades i Växjö 1919 med uppgift att för Kronobergs län "verka för hembygdskunskap och hembygdsvård ... väcka uppmärksamhet och skapa intresse för småländsk natur såväl som kultur samt uppspana, beskriva , anteckna eller taga till vara vad som kan visa kommande släkten hur man i dessa bygder känt och tänkt, talat och levat." Föreningen utgjorde en parallell till andra läns fornminnesföreningar och upptog G.O. Hyltén-Cavallius namn som sitt för att markera honom respekt och visa på hans betydelse för ändamålet. Föreningen har numera successivt ombildats till Kronobergs läns hembygdsförbund.

U.S. to donate 500 million Pfizer vaccine doses globally -sources
By Trevor Hunnicutt and Carl O'Donnell
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The Biden administration plans to donate 500 million Pfizer coronavirus vaccine doses to nearly 100 countries over the next two years, three sources familiar with the matter told Reuters on Wednesday.
The United States is likely to distribute 200 million shots this year and another 300 million in the first half of next year, they said.
It will donate them to 92 lower-income countries and the African Union, they added.
The donations will go through the COVAX vaccine program that distributes COVID-19 shots to low- and middle-income countries and is backed by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization (GAVI).
U.S. President Joe Biden will announce the deal on Thursday at the Group of Seven meeting of the world's wealthiest countries in Britain, one of the people said.
The deal was negotiated over the past four weeks by White House COVID-19 response coordinator Jeff Zients and the coronavirus task force team, one of the sources said.
The White House and Pfizer declined to comment.
The U.S. president told reporters before boarding Air Force One for Britain that he had a global vaccine strategy and would be announcing it but did not offer details.
The White House has been under mounting pressure to boost donations of COVID-19 shots to other countries.
The United States has given at least one shot to around 64% of its adult population and has begun vaccinating adolescents, while other countries like Brazil and India are struggling to get desperately needed doses.
"This action sends an incredibly powerful message about America's commitment to helping the world fight this pandemic," said Tom Hart, acting chief executive of The ONE Campaign, a nonprofit working to end extreme poverty and preventable disease by 2030.
The Biden administration had said it would share 80 million vaccine doses worldwide by the end of June. The White House earlier this year pledged $4 billion to COVAX and urged other countries to boost donations as well.
GAVI did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Pfizer has said it expects to produce as many as 3 billion COVID-19 shots in 2021 and upwards of 4 billion next year.
The New York Times reported that the United States will buy the doses at a "not-for-profit" price, citing people familiar with the deal. They also reported that Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla will accompany Biden during the announcement.
The agreement is in addition to the 300 million shots the United States has already purchased from Pfizer and brings the total number of Pfizer/BioNTech shots purchased by the United States to 800 million, the Times said.

In his report on the death of cyclist Clément Ouimet, the coroner says the city has to do a better job of improving safety on Mount Royal.
A cycling lobby group says the city still needs to do more to curb the speed of motorists on Mount Royal.
In the wake of the coroner's report into the high-profile death of 18-year-old cyclist Clément Ouimet, Vélo Québec is warning cyclists that there are still major risks when travelling on Mount Royal, and they should not bike at a high speed, especially when heading down Camillien-Houde Way, the main thoroughfare that cuts through the iconic site.
Ouimet died in a hospital on Oct. 4, 2017, hours after his bike struck the rear door of a Toyota Highlander SUV that was in the process of making a U-turn.
In his report made public on Monday, coroner Jean Brochu concluded that the driver of the SUV was heading downhill and had slowed down to veer onto the shoulder in order to make a U-turn. He surmised that Ouimet, who was travelling behind the car, attempted to pass on the left, thinking the motorist was parking the car. However, when the car turned left to head back up the mountain, Ouimet's bike struck it. He was thrown off his bicycle and taken to a hospital with several cranial injuries, the report noted.
Brochu said he believes Ouimet was surprised by the SUV's manoeuvre, because the skid mark left by his attempt to brake was less than a metre long.
Ouimet, a competitive cyclist, had made daily trips to the mountain, so he knew the area well. The car was being driven by a tourist, who attempted the U-turn in order to return to the lookout near the summit. Brochu noted that three other collisions involving cars and cyclists had occurred at the same spot within the last two years.
In May, Quebec's Crown prosecutor's office announced there would be no criminal charges filed against the driver of the SUV, as the actions of the driver do not constitute dangerous driving under the Criminal Code.
However, the crash became the subject of intense public scrutiny, happening in the middle of a municipal election campaign in which pedestrian and cyclist safety was a hot-button issue.
Montreal Mayor Valérie Plante used the accident partly as a justification for closing Mount Royal to through-traffic in a five-month pilot project that got underway at the beginning of June.
While Brochu did not comment on whether the project will improve safety, he said the city has to do a better overall job of improving safety for the city's "most vulnerable" both on Mount Royal and elsewhere on the island of Montreal.
Although Vélo Québec has welcomed the pilot project, which aims to reduce car traffic on the mountain by 80 per cent, spokesperson Magali Bebronne said the city must still make major structural changes to the road to better protect cyclists. She called the road an "expressway-type route" that is not appropriate for a park and pointed out that it is still possible for cars to make U-turns on that roadway. The city's new pilot project even encourages the manoeuvre, she said, because it forces motorists hoping to park at the lookout to travel several hundred metres and turn around near Smith House.
Bebronne called on the city to adopt traffic-calming measures like narrowing the roadway, adding vegetation and adopting other urban planning measures to change the design of the road. Until those measures are adopted, she called on cyclists to be careful when travelling downhill.
Montreal's opposition leader Lionel Perez agreed the city hasn't adopted any measures to make the mountain safer.
"All (the pilot project) does is reduce the amount of traffic, but concrete measures in terms of creating a separate lane, adding speed bumps, all these things were ignored," Perez told reporters at city hall Monday.
Marianne Giguère, the Plante administration's point person for cycling said the fact that there are fewer cars has made the area safer. She said the city still has work to do to figure out the best way to make Mount Royal safe for all Montrealers.

Senate Committee And Police Seek Collaboration With Nigerian Army
The Senate Committee on Army and the Acting Inspector General of Police, IGP, Usman Baba have paid a courtesy visit to the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Ibrahim Attahiru, to appreciate the sacrifices of the Nigerian Army.
This was the first for the Senate Committee on Army led by its Chairman, Senator Mohammed Ali Ndume since the assumption of office of the Chief of Army Staff.
Senator Ndume and his team also went to formally congratulate COAS on his appointment as the Army Chief and to acquaint the COAS with observations and findings during the oversight visits by the Committee to Nigerian Army formations and Units.
In his response, General Attahiru thanked the Committee for the visit which he said was timely and afforded the leadership of the NA an opportunity to discuss issues that would impact positively on the its activities and operations.
He said; "the visit will strengthen the cordial relationship between the Nigerian Army and the National Assembly, and the NA requires more equipment such as armoured fighting vehicles and various combat enablers to confront insurgency and other security threats across the country."
The Acting Inspector General of Police, IGP Usman Baba also visited the Army Headquarters for the first time since his appointment and reiterated the importance of synergy among security agencies.
He stated that "they are all working along functional lines to combat security challenges in the country and to ultimately restore normalcy to troubled areas."
Security collaboration
The acting IGP who was accompanied on the visit by some of his principal staff officers, said his visit was to seek further collaboration and synergy with the NA in tackling insecurity.
According to him, "the collaboration and synergy will match forces to confront insurgency, banditary and other criminalities confronting the country."
"The Nigerian security environment is currently dicey and security forces especially the Police Force and the NA are central in bringing the situation under control," Baba said.

He commended the NA under the leadership of Lt Gen Ibrahim Attahiru for the successes recently recorded in the North-east and other flashpoints around the country.
Baba promised the Police's commitment towards collaboration with the NA and other security agencies in maintaining law and order.
"I need to come here and pledge my unalloyed support, cooperation, collaboration and synergy with the military, to enable us provide the required environment for citizens of this country to go about their lawful businesses.
"My purpose of coming is to inform you and assure you that the Nigerian Police, under my leadership, will always be ready to work with you in whatever way that will make this country governable, peaceful and enable Nigerians to go about their lawful businesses.
"The security environment is very dicey, as we came in at a period when we have to do something extra, that is different from what our colleagues have been doing, and change the narratives,'' the Police boss stated.
Responding, the COAS thanked the Acting Inspector General of Police for the visit while congratulating him on his recent appointment by President Muhammadu Buhari which he said, was a reflection of the confidence reposed on him by Mr President.
General Attahiru said; "I want to assure you that the Nigerian army, under my leadership, will continue to synergise and support the Nigerian police to build appropriate capacities, so as to collectively secure the nation."
He added that the appointment came at a time when the country was facing myriads of security challenges that needed urgent and sustained intervention.
The COAS also congratulated the officers and men of the NPF for sacrifices and loyalty in the discharge of their constitutional roles.

Q: Subnet (or CIDR) IP control at T-SQL I don't know how to exactly explain, but there is a problem about selecting and comparing query IP subnet. For example, there is a list for IP address and I have another CIDR/subnet mask list (X.X.X.0/24 etc). How can I learn that each IP address in first list is in CIDR/subnet mask list via T-SQL?
For example:
IP: 172.28.112.23 -> false
IP: 172.28.111.33 -> true
IP List Output:

SubNet Output:

A: You want to do exactly what a computer would do to determine if an ip address is in a subnet- ie:
1) convert the network address, subnet mask and test address to binary.
2) Check if (Network Address & Subnet Mask) = (Test Address & Subnet mask)
(& represents bitwise AND)
If this comparison is true the test address is within the subnet
The key to understanding this is to realise that IP addresses (and subnet masks) are just 32 bit numbers.
A bitwise and between 2 32 bit numbers creates a new 32 bit number with a 1 in the position where there was a 1 in both of the 2 numbers being compared, and a 0 otherwise.
EG: 1010 & 1100 = 1000 because the first digit is 1 in both numbers (yielding a 1 in the result for the first digit), but the 2nd 3rd and 4th digits are not (so give 0 in the result for the 2nd 3rd and 4th digits).
SQL Server cannot do a bitwise and between 2 binary numbers unfortunately, but it works fine between decimal representations (ie when converted to BIGINT datatype).
Therefore I'd propose you create a function that converts your IP addresses to BIGINT datatype firstly
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnIPtoBigInt
(
    @Ipaddress NVARCHAR(15) -- should be in the form '123.123.123.123'
)
RETURNS BIGINT
AS
BEGIN
 DECLARE @part1 AS NVARCHAR(3)
 DECLARE @part2 AS NVARCHAR(3)
 DECLARE @part3 AS NVARCHAR(3)
 DECLARE @part4 AS NVARCHAR(3)

 SELECT @part1 = LEFT(@Ipaddress, CHARINDEX('.',@Ipaddress) - 1)
 SELECT @Ipaddress = SUBSTRING(@Ipaddress, LEN(@part1) + 2, 15)
 SELECT @part2 = LEFT(@Ipaddress, CHARINDEX('.',@Ipaddress) - 1)
 SELECT @Ipaddress = SUBSTRING(@Ipaddress, LEN(@part2) + 2, 15)
 SELECT @part3 = LEFT(@Ipaddress, CHARINDEX('.',@Ipaddress) - 1)
 SELECT @part4 = SUBSTRING(@Ipaddress, LEN(@part3) + 2, 15)

 DECLARE @ipAsBigInt AS BIGINT
 SELECT @ipAsBigInt =
    (16777216 * (CAST(@part1 AS BIGINT)))
    + (65536 * (CAST(@part2 AS BIGINT)))
    + (256 * (CAST(@part3 AS BIGINT)))
    + (CAST(@part4 AS BIGINT))

 RETURN @ipAsBigInt

END

GO

Then you can easily implement a function to test if an address is in a subnet:
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnIsIpaddressInSubnet
(
    @networkAddress NVARCHAR(15), -- 'eg: '192.168.0.0'
    @subnetMask NVARCHAR(15), -- 'eg: '255.255.255.0' for '/24'
    @testAddress NVARCHAR(15) -- 'eg: '192.168.0.1'
)
RETURNS BIT AS
BEGIN
    RETURN CASE WHEN (dbo.fnIPtoBigInt(@networkAddress) & dbo.fnIPtoBigInt(@subnetMask))
        = (dbo.fnIPtoBigInt(@testAddress) & dbo.fnIPtoBigInt(@subnetMask))
    THEN 1 ELSE 0 END
END

To make this a bit easier for you you'll probably want a function that can convert '/24' to a BigInt too.
'/24' is a shorthand way of writing 255.255.255.0 - ie a 32bit number with the first 24bits set to 1 (and the remaining 8 bits set to 0)
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnSubnetBitstoBigInt
(
    @SubnetBits TINYINT -- max = 32
)
RETURNS BIGINT
AS
BEGIN

 DECLARE @multiplier AS BIGINT = 2147483648
 DECLARE @ipAsBigInt AS BIGINT = 0
 DECLARE @bitIndex TINYINT = 1
 WHILE @bitIndex <= @SubnetBits
 BEGIN
    SELECT @ipAsBigInt = @ipAsBigInt + @multiplier
    SELECT @multiplier = @multiplier / 2
    SELECT @bitIndex = @bitIndex + 1
 END

 RETURN @ipAsBigInt

END

GO

If you create the following additional function the conversion becomes easy
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnIsIpaddressInSubnetShortHand
(
    @network NVARCHAR(18), -- 'eg: '192.168.0.0/24'
    @testAddress NVARCHAR(15) -- 'eg: '192.168.0.1'
)
RETURNS BIT AS
BEGIN
    DECLARE @networkAddress NVARCHAR(15)
    DECLARE @subnetBits TINYINT

    SELECT @networkAddress = LEFT(@network, CHARINDEX('/', @network) - 1)
    SELECT @subnetBits = CAST(SUBSTRING(@network, LEN(@networkAddress) + 2, 2) AS TINYINT)

    RETURN CASE WHEN (dbo.fnIPtoBigInt(@networkAddress) & dbo.fnSubnetBitstoBigInt(@subnetBits))
        = (dbo.fnIPtoBigInt(@testAddress) & dbo.fnSubnetBitstoBigInt(@subnetBits))
    THEN 1 ELSE 0 END
END

i.e.
SELECT dbo.fnIsIpaddressInSubnetShorthand('192.168.2.0/24','192.168.3.91') -- returns 0
SELECT dbo.fnIsIpaddressInSubnetShorthand('192.168.2.0/24','192.168.2.91') -- returns 1

A: This is not an answer in itself, but a way to make one of the functions in James S answer easier to read and possibly more efficient.
SQL Server has a function to handle getting parts from database object names. Those names are 4 parts [Server].[Database].[Schema].[Object]. So the following allows you to get the schema name. The index works from the right
SELECT PARSENAME('[myServer].[master].[sys].[objects]', 2)

There's nothing to say you can't use that for an IP address. And as it's so fundamental to how SQL operates I assume it has been hella optimised.
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnIPtoBigInt
(
    @Ipaddress NVARCHAR(15) -- should be in the form '123.123.123.123'
)
RETURNS BIGINT
AS
BEGIN
 DECLARE @ipAsBigInt AS BIGINT
 SELECT @ipAsBigInt =
    (16777216 * (CAST(PARSENAME(@Ipaddress, 4) AS BIGINT)))
    + (65536 * (CAST(PARSENAME(@Ipaddress, 3) AS BIGINT)))
    + (256 * (CAST(PARSENAME(@Ipaddress, 2) AS BIGINT)))
    + (CAST(PARSENAME(@Ipaddress, 1) AS BIGINT))

 RETURN @ipAsBigInt

END

GO

  @mask AS VARCHAR(15),
  @ip AS VARCHAR(15)

September 20, 2013 by Ben Reeve-Lewis
[Ben Reeve Lewis is facing an inspection …]
Frazzy and I had a property inspection this week. A routine affair for the people doing it I'm sure but a bit of a trauma for us.
I am new to this renting malarkey, previously always having owned my own home but recession and relationship breakdown has brought me to this rather late in life.
Frazzy owns a house with her elderly disabled mum but she doesn't earn enough to get a second mortgage and I can't get one on my own, so renting it is, for the time being.
Inspections are a queer fish.
On the one hand I understand the landlord's need to make sure that there isn't anything structural that we failed to notice.
But on the other hand is the admittedly emotive response of middle aged people, a current home owner herself in Frazzy's case, being treated like children, as if they can't be trusted not to swing from the chandeliers…..not that we have a chandelier you understand………it fell down last Christmas when we got pissed and swung from it.
Doing the job that I do and seeing the things that I see I can't help getting the paranoid, sleep disturbing idea that the landlord is looking for ways to get rid of us and nick our deposit. Frazzy too has been losing sleep over it. The curse of Assured Shorthold Tenancies, where you can lose your home without ever having done anything wrong.
The fact that there isn't a single penny in rent arrears and you could eat your dinner out of the toilet (which of course we frequently do just to make a point) pails into insignificance at the prospect of "An inspector calls".
Rant over….to the news.
The Mail is outraged
The Daily Mail excelled itself this week with a title that made me laugh out loud
"Outrage after BBC helps paedophile find a luxury home in 'Escape to the Country' so he can become an alpaca farmer"
Ha-ha. I like to think that the Daily Mail journos had a laugh coming up with that one. Conversely I hate to think they were genuinely outraged. Having once had the grave misfortune to spend 10 minutes talking to Peter Hitchens at a party you never know.
The very real fact was that after filming, the person in question Darren Robinson was jailed for 30 months on eight counts of having sex with a 15 year old. Robinson apparently hid the impending trial from the programme makers.
Quite why the BBC should in some way be responsible for this beggar's belief. The article goes on to quite reasonably state:
"House-hunters applying to be on the programme are asked to provide details to the BBC before they are featured on the popular daytime show, made by Boundless Productions."
Adding:
"The online application form does not ask for details of spent convictions or for any pending criminal charges."
And why the hell should they? The Mail typically yells:
"Father-of-one Robinson demanded a four-bedroom house with period features"
Can we just examine that a bit? He wasn't fetching up at the homelessness unit "Demanding" a 4 bed house for him, his partner and their 1 child. He was buying it, so surely he can "Demand" exactly what he likes?
Cunningly the article also has a section in blue titled "More", which then links you to two other stories that begin:
"This predator should be in jail for seducing my son"
"Why did police chiefs keep quiet?"
But when you click on the links they are nothing to do with Mr Robinson's story, although the blue font makes it stand out from the main text and leads you to believe there are further scurrilous connections.
I recently had a chat with a friend from New York who asked in genuine consternation whose views the Daily Mail represents. I won't repeat my reply here.
And before anyone gets shirty I'm not defending Mr Robinson's sex crimes, just pointing out how to deconstruct a Daily Mail article.
Choosing a flatmate
Now over to my favourites in dark times, Planet Property who carried another headline that made me laugh out loud:
"Wanted: Awesome, nudist, vegan flatmates with banter"
An article based on the keywords tenants stick into search engines when looking for a new property, culled from research by the ever expanding 'Spare room.com'.
Some of the more hopeful fantasists search for 'Food included', or for some bizarre reasons 'Naked'.
31% are Irish, Spanish or Christian and 39% are vegetarian cyclists who love music.
If ever there was a cautionary tale about house sharing then the prospect of cosying up with a Christian cyclist who listens to Coldplay would be it for me. I'll pay the excess rent for my own front door…….behind which I can mend a puncture to the sound of 'A rush of blood to the head' , breaking off occasionally to pray to the saviour, to take me into his tender care as soon as possible.
Beds in (posh) sheds
Staying with Planet Property my interest was piqued by their report of a property a mile up the road from me. A shed in Forest Hill SE23 going for £300,000…..yes you read that right.
Planet Property quite rightly point to estate agents Roy Brooks and their reputation for sometimes hilarious "Spade a spade" house descriptions which go back to the real Roy of the 1930s and this current guff:-
"SUPER-STYLED self-contained detached mini house in a rather excellent spot. Design junkies will love this wood-clad home; it's a mini-house that would suit a young couple perfectly, having huge advantages over similarly priced apartments in the area. Since this is detached, you can turn your music up. You have your own garden – it wraps around the property from the front, along one side and to the rear."
Have a look at the article tell me….is that a shed or what? My particular favourite there is "Design junkies will love this wood-clad home;" ha-ha. How about describing a tent as "Coco Chanel inspired fabric based dwelling".
Forest Hill, Brockley, Honor Oak et al have really come on the market in the past couple of years since the East London Line linked Croydon to Islington by way of Brick Lane, Hoxton and Shoreditch.
All the trendy Spanish, vegetarian, Christian cyclists who can't afford the east end make-over are suddenly heading to south east London, an area previously known only for street crime, crack houses and 'Dodgy geezers'.
Having spent my entire life growing up in an area which when mentioned, caused people to either giggle or discreetly tell their partners to go outside and make sure they have locked the car I have mixed feelings about the gentrification.
When telling a few people lately that I am from Deptford, land of Millwall FC, I have been noticing a few impressed, arched eyebrows instead of the double checked fastening on the purse. People seem more interested in the notion that growing up around the defunct docks might just have been a shrewd business move on my part, rather than just where I happened to be born.
Such is life when you live in a society obsessed with housing as an investment opportunity, while the notion of a 'Home', plays second fiddle.
« Sitting tenant's rights where the landlord has never done maintenance work
Landlord Law Blog roundup from 16 September »
JamieT says
Inspections have nothing to do with making sure there are no property defects and everything to do with making sure you are not trashing the place or growing any suspicions house plants.
Great article Ben.
Thanks for the real-world heads up Jamie. I suspected as much but was just trying to be fair.
In practice the woman who did it stepped inside the front door and gave the place the most cursory of once-overs. I dont even think she went into every room. The whole thing took less than two minutes, maybe even less than one. I think upon entering it was obvious that we were normal and that was all she was looking for.
I dont know how much she charged the agents for that but it looked like very easy money to me. Maybe I should give up chasing rogue landlords and do inventories and inspections instead.
Sandra Savage-Fisher says
Thanks Ben I always love reading your newsround. This one had me laughing out loud.
Just so you know we always treat tenants with the greatest of respect, especially when doing inspections. You know it is their home and you're not there to check if they've done the washing up and vacuumed.
As James says, its about making sure that no suspicious plants are being grown, the house is being used as a home and that you haven't moved half the neighbourhood in.
We often sit and have a chat with the tenants. This is usually when they say "Oh I've been meaning to tell you………, it's just a little thing and didn't want to bother you" We've been informed about wasps nests, leaking sinks, electrics not working etc..
With regards to flat sharing we use Spareroom quite a lot. Its a great source for room share accommodation. As the article pointed out some of the adverts make interesting reading 🙂
Richard Watters says
Laughed out loud at "The Inspector Calls", very good. I know the feeling, a bit like I always feel a bit apprehensive when I overtake a police car on the Motorway doing exactly 70 mph, not doing anything wrong but feeling uneasy neverthless.
But like Traffic Police, Landlords are not looking for trouble, inspections are just to keep you on your toes like that Jam Sandwich in the inside lane.
Oh, and the 6 month AST isn't really a curse, without them there really would be a shortage of property to rent.
I know what you mean Richard. I remember years back throwing a sickie and whilst out shopping walked into a uniformed cop and did a quick stomach turning twist for a brief second until logic kicked in and reminded me it wasnt a criminal offence.
A bit curious on your comment about inspections being about keeping tenants "On their toes" though. We are human beings, not Meerkats
Of course the vast majority of tenants don't need to be "kept on their toes" by inspections and you obviously don't, but I've had a few who unfortunately do need to be treated like naughty children who haven't kept their bedroom tidy!
But Richard isnt that argument a bit like landlords complaining that licensing affects the vast majority of good landlords just to deal with the few bad ones?
I say without any rancour. Its a conundrum that has bothered me for many years now – this strange relationship between landlords and tenants where mistrust and even hatred on both sides seems to be the norm. I have long thought that if I could figure out why both sides so often felt this way I might be able to devise sort sort of solution.
A while back I bumped into a tenant I had long forgotten about who I had helped in some way. He shook my hand and thanked me. I asked him what his new landlord was like, he just shrugged gave an old fashioned look and a snort of a laugh and said "Landlord isnt he". As if that was all that needed to be said.
But this morning, as I was pondering getting up to reply to your comment I think I found the answer to my years long conundrum.
I think its just human nature.
I work in the council's homeless unit. The people we see day in day out are how we get paid but you should hear the things we say about them haha. We have a saying in our office "I used to love my mother until I found out she was a member of the public".
Professional musicians, which I used to be, have little regard for music journalists.People in the military, which my sister used to be, are often dismissive of civilians same with cops and the public.
I've decided it isnt such a conundrum after all. It simply comes down to in-groups and out-groups, where we feel we belong. Landlords and tenants will always feel like this about each other.
If you are a landlord who has suffered a tenant trashing your home or heard tales from other landlords, why wouldnt you build a note of caution into your future dealings with tenants? similarly if you are tenant who has ever been ripped off or harassed by a landlord who can blame you for being wary of all landlords?
So thank you Richard…..you have just solved a problem I've had for many years.
Ha, ha, well I'm happy I was able to help you Ben. 🙂
I think I'm a very fair landlord but I remember assuming in the early days that my tenants were all like me, fair and honest. I could now give you dozens of examples of things that have happened that have made me realise that it's naive to assume this.
As one example, a Housing Benefit tenant who had a "trash" party where they invited all their friends round to trash the property and did a runner the next day. Cost to put right £12k. There was no way of course I could prove this to bring a prosecution and as they had no money trying to get recompense was futile. The full story was told to me by a neighbour "off the record" some months later.
This hasn't destroyed my faith in human nature, I think most people are decent, but I now vet tenants much more carefully, require Guarantors in every case and inspect all properties regularly. Which is where we started I think!
I was talking today to a mate at work, a very devout Muslim called Noor. He condemns all violence but wonders himself about trust in human nature and the pragmatic question of how to protect yourself in a corupt world.
He says there is a saying in Islam that covers this perfectly "Trust to god, but tie up your camel".
On 'Trash parties' yeah I've heard of these….how appalling. I was involved in a recent case where the police told me about a flat in a tower block that had been twice advertised on social media sites @ £20 a ticket for a party. This flat had previously run as a cannabis factory – obviously selling their wares at the same time. All the neighbouring flats were elderly people.
I think what I despair of generally is people's evident lack of respect for each other. Landlords – tenants – agents etc but as I say above……that's the modern condition so much of the time. Where's that damned camel when you need him haha


Stress: Some say they can't live with it while others insist they can't live without it. Either way, stress causes serious health issues and as entrepreneurs it should be avoided as much as possible. Here are 7 tips for living a stress free life.
* Negativity. If you surround yourself with negative people or have a negative attitude you will always be in a stressful mode. Look on the bright side of things. Whether you are just starting out or you're a seasoned entrepreneur, you must think positive, be confident and empower yourself to drive away all the peripheral factors that bring negativity into your life. You are what you think about.
* Fear. Fear can cause stress-related health conditions such as anxiety, panic attacks and the inability to live a normal life. Fear is paralyzing and can also trigger an autoimmune response. Examine the issues causing your fear by either talking to a friend or a professional. Many female entrepreneurs experience a fear of failure. Refer to this article for help on how to overcome fear of failure.
* Sleep. Sleep deprivation can cause stress. Lack of sleep will make you irritable, nervous, lethargic and unable to perform any task that needs to be done. Entrepreneurs are notorious for not getting proper rest and often suffer gravely in the long run because of this. Ensure you sleep at least 7 to 8 hours a night. Inadequate rest also leads to weight gain. Dr. Matthew Brady of the University of Chicago and senior author of Annals of Internal Medicine conducted a study that demonstrated how inadequate sleep causes metabolic consequences. In other words…GO TO BED!!!
* Exercise. Walking, jogging, biking or running cannot only relieve stress, but keep you healthy and energetic. Combine this with the proper diet and you will be better suited to cope with stress. Exercise releases endorphins also known as "happy hormones." I don't know about you, but it's hard to be happy and stressed at the same time.
* Aromatherapy. Utilizing scented oils at home or during the business day can achieve calm and relaxation. The use of scented candles or teas such as chamomile, and warm baths of lavender and rose can put you at ease in an instant. Essential oils such as lavender, ylang ylang and basil are really calming. Meditation and yoga are great as well. Take out time throughout the day and have what I call a "sniff moment." This is where you whip out your oil diffuser and begin to sniff your stress away. Caution: The right essential oils will create feelings of euphoria coupled with a calgon moment. Sniffer discretion is advised.
* Positive Thinking. Life as a female entrepreneur has enough problems without your having to worry about inconsequential matters. Develop an attitude that is positive, empowering and one that inspires others. Encompassing a spirit of gratitude and lots of laughter promotes positivity, a sense of well being and can help you cope with stress. Laugh as much as you can and as often as you can.
Living a stress free life may not be easy. If it was, the journey would encompass a boring road lined with the same views and stepping stones. However, conquering stress can uplift you, help you become a better business woman and make your life more enjoyable. Live intentionally, live on purpose…without sweating the small stuff.

Great advice. I especially like encouragement to get plenty of sleep (something I suspect lots of women are short on) and stay positive. I'm not Type A, but I do have a few control issues. And you're right – it causes stress.
My favorite line in the article was "Live intentionally…live on purpose." It's such a simple concept yet very difficult to put into practice!
A good read. I would add that good, healthy eating is also vital. Even taking the time to eat meals regularly (and sitting down while you eat) is an important step for keeping stress at bay.
You are absolutely right Tracey. Often times we are "eating on the run" not realizing how this impacts our digestion and can exacerbate stress.
Danielle it's amazing the things that happen in our lives when we "live intentionally and on purpose." Let's make 2013 our year to put this into practice.
Rhonda, I am working hard on the control piece. I am so much better than I was 5 years ago. Yay me!
Great reminders, April, thank you. Good sleep and regular exercise are essential basics. Negative thoughts and fear are sometimes more difficult to keep at bay, but I do believe the more courageous and positive we are, the happier and less stress-prone we are.

An Amphibian Biobanking Workshop was co-hosted by the Zoological Society of London (ZSL) and the European Xenopus Resource Centre (EXRC), Portsmouth, on 6-8th September, and was attended by over thirty delegates from eight different countries. The main aim of the workshop was to bring experts from different disciplines, including: cryo-, reproductive and conservation biology, fish and Xenopus research and stewards of amphibian populations together, to progress towards a "biobanking strategy document for amphibian conservation". The ultimate aim of which is to provide advice for the wider community, e.g. which species and samples should be biobanked; how and what data should be recorded; what other aspects should be considered when biobanking, such as sample, individual and species differences, genetics and disease; what are the existing and promising biobanking/assisted reproductive technologies not yet applied to amphibians, etc.
To this end, the two days of talks and discussions at ZSL provided a considerable amount of background information for the document. As a result of the one day of practical demonstrations at EXRC; several biobanking protocols (e.g. "field biopsy protocol for the later initiation of cell culture") were collected for the strategy document and twenty-two students gained experience in biobanking methodologies (several for the first time).
Those present at the meeting will also work with the wider community to produce an "amphibian biobanking white paper", outlining the needs (e.g. infrastructural and technical) that must be met for a global network of amphibian biobanks to be established. This document will be written with potential funding bodies in mind.

When disconnected, the SQC-auto-lock seals both loose ends watertight, which means you can exchange the tube or accessories also when the reservoir is full.
Très pratique ! Permet de vider une bouteille d'eau directement dans la poche à eau en un tour de main. Je recommande l article .
"Very practical ... I recommend this product" - Thank you, merci Philippe for your review!
If you're refilling using a bottle (ideally squeezable) or a running tap, it's fine. But the first time I tried pouring into it using a flask, the inflow was really slow, and would spill out. After some trial and error, I realized that the water pressure needs to be high enough for proper refilling. It worked when I lifted the flask up higher from the valve. But you need really steady hands to avoid spilling.
Thanks for the feedback and for sharing your experience with our UTA Rapid Refill Adapter! Enjoy the outdoors with SOURCE!
Love the UTA™ for so many reasons.
Very innovative and effective. This shortens our transition times and is super convenient in every application. Make sure it is all the way in the rubber adapter before you turn on the water or turn he bottle upside down. Buying one for every bladder we own.
Richard is out running through the city, getting to know his gear before leaving for the jungle.
Being equipped with Source's Universal Tube Adaptor, he's able to fill his Widepac hydration system on-the-move, without removing his pack from his back!

Physical shares new track "Islands" via NYLON,
from upcoming debut album 'Ride It Out'
STREAM: "Islands"
SoundCloud / NYLON
(Photo Credit: Liz Platova – click image for high-res version)
Physical are Wellington, New Zealand based duo Julia Parr (Black City Lights), and Nik Brinkman (Junica, Over the Atlantic). They met in a karaoke bar in Chinatown, New York in 2013: They sang 'Drive' by The Cars.
In 2015, Nik approached Julia to write together as a contribution to his project Ghostwriters Collective. Twelve months and 8 tracks later, they had written and recorded their debut album, an unapologetically upbeat but dramatic pop record – 'Ride it Out,' out later this year (release date TBD). The record is about emotional survival for lovers and staying up late; a shout out to their deep mutual love for future R&B and synth pop.
Today the band shares the album's latest single "Islands." "I guess I've never really poured my own relationships into my songs before, but this album includes some of the most personal songs I've written," Julia Parr explains. "Islands is about someone I met on her travels through New Zealand. We went on a lush island getaway together but when we settled back into real life I started to feel like I was tying her down to one place. Nik wanted to write a song about 'paradise' and the song Islands just fell into place. We wanted the track to evoke that floating feeling of being in paradise but with an unsteadiness; the feeling in the pit of your stomach that something isn't right."

Police agencies struggle to delineate legal, illegal uses of marijuana.
Huckleberries Online: Do you support the legalization of medical marijuana nationwide?
Washington voters passed Initiative 692 – the Medical Use of Marijuana Act – in 1998. The Legislature sought to clarify the law in 2007, asking the Department of Health to define a legal and appropriate supply of marijuana. The Health Department determined that a medically authorized person could possess a 60-day supply, or 1 ½ pounds of marijuana or 15 plants.
A Health Department Web page – at www.doh.wa.gov/hsqa/ medical-marijuana/ – includes a "frequently asked questions" section about medicinal marijuana.
The owners of Change interpret the state law differently. They contend they have the right to buy marijuana and resell it to people who have written authorization from their doctors. Stevens said he obtains a wholesale supply of marijuana from local farmers with surplus crops and sells it – sales tax included – at retail prices.

Ključevskaja () je se svými 4750 m nejvyšší horou na kamčatském poloostrově. Prominence 4649 metrů z ní dělá 13. nejprominentnější horu světa a díky izolaci 2748 km je 15. nejizolovanější horou světa. Jedná se o kompozitní sopku s nejlepší kruhovitostí základny na celé planetě Zemi.

Poloha
Hora Ključevskaja se nachází asi 450 km na sever od města Petropavlovsk-Kamčatskij a asi 100 km od Beringova moře. Sopka tvoří se svými sousedy (Kameň, Bezymjannyj, Udina, Zimina a Uškovskij) jeden vulkanický masiv, který tvoří samostatnou skupinu ve východní vulkanické zóně poloostrova. Základna sopky má průměr cca 15 kilometrů, průměr hlavního kráteru je 500 - 600 metrů. Zhruba 30 kilometrů od sopky se nachází vesnice Ključi, v níž je místní vulkanologická stanice.

Historie
První historicky doložený výstup na vrchol Ključevské uskutečnili v srpnu roku 1788 členové ruské expedice, vedené anglickým mořeplavcem a hydrografem Josephem Billingsem.

Erupce
Je to nejaktivnější sopka poloostrova a zároveň i jedna z nejaktivnějších sopek na Zemi. K první zaznamenané erupci došlo v roce 1697, a od té doby je sopka víceméně stále činná, stejně jako mnohé další sopky v oblasti. Přestože je její věk jen 6000 let, za posledních 3000 let eruptovala více než stokrát.

Tvořena je převážně čedičovými horninami, vyvrhovanými explozivními, ale i efuzívními erupcemi z hlavního, resp. parazitických kráterů, kterých je na svazích sopky minimálně 30. Samotný vrcholový kráter má průměr přibližně 600 metrů a jeho morfologie je měněna častými erupcemi.

And greetings in return from Alaska!
it's a 62 adoraton hymn. The third segment it's eight long.
can I do an art project with this?
This is extremely late, but I must say, I adore these adorations! I used them so often when I first began worshipping Apollon. It's lovely to come back a while later now that I can understand them more. They're even more beautiful now.
Thank you! That is truly a wonderful compliment! I am so glad that you have found use for them in your worship and are still getting something of value out of them!
I used your adorations tonight in my worship of Apollo. Thank you putting the time into writing them.
In Hellenismos there is no devil, but there are the Fates, and no god could control the decree of the Fates. In the myth of Admetus Apollon could not change the fate of death for Admetus no matter how much he loved him. Only mortal actions change fate. Aclestis offered her life in his place. And the hero Herakles rescued her. We are the weavers of fate by our actions.
Christianity and the destruction it brought and suffering was not due to lack of action on the part of gods, but by the actions of humans. Humanity hurt itself, the gods were nit harmed nor did they leave us. Those gods attached to humanity likely sorrowed for us tho.
