I am not sure whether brunch is eaten in Thailand. I prefer to think it's not. For the purpose of this dispatch though, I had a lovely two-part brunch in Elmhurst's ever expanding Thai town. Stop number one was the newly renovated Sugar Club. In addition to seating and room for an entire table laden with prepared foods and desserts, the expansion includes a café area, which serves up desserts and a savory breakfast called egg pan ($5), or kai kra ta in Thai.
Thai coffee with condensed milk—sweet and invigorating.
Sugar Club's egg pan is literally just that, an egg sunny side up, served in the pan it's fried in along with sweet pork sausage, chopped pork loaf, and ground pork. Lovers of all things cute will go gaga over it. Heck I thought it was pretty neat looking until I touched the still hot pan. It comes with a condiment caddy, including ketchup, Maggi, and white pepper. I doctored it up with the latter two, deeming the ketchup too American. It was tasty, but almost hard to believe it was Thai. Nonetheless, with a cup of kha-fai ron, with sweetened condensed milk sitting at the bottom, it made for a nice light breakfast.
Khao Kang's khanom bueang, the sweetest Thai tacos ever.
My second stop was Khao Kang. My friend Cherry from Pata Paplean had told me that the steam table specialist had an amazing dessert served only on weekends. Boy was she ever right. I could easily eat five or six khanom bueang at a clip and not just because they are a buck apiece. The rice flour crepe smeared with meringue comes with one of two fillings: a sweet one with coconut and foi thong, strands of candied egg yolk, and a savory version filled with ruddy salted coconut seasoned with dried shrimp and sesame seeds. Compare them to tacos if you must. Crunchy and sweet, yet still light they are my new favorite Thai snack. It's hard to pick a favorite of the two, but for the moment I'll say the red coconut ones.
Fellow Thai snack fiends take note Khao Kang only makes khanom bueang on weekends. I'm pretty sure I'll be there Saturday to pick up a few hundred to take to a friend's party. As I've mentioned before it's a good time to be eating Thai in Elmhurst.
Elmhurst really needs its Long Island Rail Road station re-opened. The R and the 7 just don't cut it when one is hungry.
Ever ordered from the Thai-language, late-night menu at Spicy Shallot, Joe?
Yeah Mark. What's all this about a late night menu at Spicy Shallot?? I tend to avoid that place because I avoid all places that have Thai and sushi under one roof. Have you eaten off that menu?
5 or so years back I had some kind of thousand-year egg dish there. Don't know the exact translation. I was with friends of friends who knew Thai folks who showed up there for Thai music nights which were usually held late on Thursdays if memory serves.
I sympathize with the Thai-Sushi all-in-one avoidance in general.


Hey guys, remember when I was doing a build log of the Master Grade Wing Gundam?
Basically, I got busy with the end of the school year. That's the short answer. The long answer is, my god, I hate painting anything remotely tube-shaped. It's just so tedious and there's almost no easy way to do it! It didn't help that these turned out to be a part of the kit I don't even use, but I'll get to that later. The bulk of this article is going to talk about the transformation of the kit, since I covered a lot of it early on.
I tend to get a little worried when I transform painted kits. After all, I just spent hours upon hours painting this thing. I'd always wonder if the paint would get scratched or whatever. Now that I've done a few, I've come to not worry as much since these things are engineered to, you know, prevent most of that from happening. Either way, I'm still completely terrified to customize any Transformers. All the paint scratching there would just drive me insane.
The transformation on this kit is actually done pretty well, and holds, too! This kit was thankfully made after Bandai figured out how to do stable transforming kits—none of that MG Zeta 1.0 nightmare. The transformation is pretty simple, which is a good thing, especially when your kit has a non-transforming version. Several years ago, I made the mistake of buying the FAZZ Master Grade. There is nothing worse than building a transforming suit… that has all of the transformation parts negated by armor. That's an experience I'd never like to relive.
The best part about this version of the kit is the two stand pieces, for use with action bases. They both work out perfectly, and make this the version you should buy. Seriously, they're the only difference between this and the old Ver Ka.
There's an issue with the gun on this kit: when this was made, hand slots for weapon holding weren't standard, so the rifle doesn't peg into the palm. There is a quick fix however: you can push the thumb down which will sort of lock it into place. It isn't ideal, but it works.
Now, for the tubes I mentioned… yeah, I really hate these stupid energy pack things. Not only are they hard to paint and sand, but they also get in the way of the whole kit. I understand the point of them giving the Wing extra Buster Rifle rounds, but they just hang off the arms and don't integrate into the design. I usually just leave them off.
While it's the oldest of all the Gundam Wing Master Grades, it's still held up pretty nicely. Obviously the frame isn't as nice as the newer ones and it requires more sanding, but for a Master Grade made back in 2004, it's all pretty par for the course. Definitely recommended. Make sure to pick one up if you ever see it at FPNYC!


I am a daughter, sister, wife and mother, trying to love the Lord with all my heart and to love my neighbors as myself. On this blog, I am sharing two projects I am pursuing: "Answering Jesus," in which I respond to the questions poignantly posed by the Lord in the gospels, and "Psalms of Gratitude," in which I write based on/inspired by the Psalms I am reading. Both are projects started years ago, but being re-examined in light of a time of transition I am experiencing.
I am currently transitioning from fourteen years in public education to a new calling in Kids Ministry. It is exhilarating and terrifying to accept a new calling, but I am eager to use the spiritual gifts that have been bestowed upon me.
I am passionate about serving and supporting children and families, building relationships, and learning.
I love reading historical fiction, watching movies, running, journaling, cleaning (seriously) and chicken nachos. (not necessarily in that order). When I'm not at church or school, you can find me watching my son play baseball, basketball, or flag football; listening to my daughter play the violin, piano, or ukelele; leading our Girl Scout troop; cheering on the Virginia Cavaliers; or walking our border-beagle, Luna.


D25	A pagoda restaurant on the Regent's Canal between London Zoo and Camden. D24	The Regent's Canal below the Aviary at London Zoo.
Description This was an enjoyable stroll along the Regents Canal.
Condition I feel okay after this walk, although I am a little bit tired. My feet are suffering - these trainers are not as good as I was hoping that they would be.
Weather Initially cloudy, became fairly sunny later on. It was quite a warm day.
This was a fairly nice little walk, starting off at Paddington tube station. Walking past Paddington mainline station was fairly sombre - only 5 days has passed since the crash that killed 30+ people outside the station.
I could tell that I had not done much walking recently - the walk affected me more than it really should. I partially put this down to the trainers, which are not ideal for walking, but it is also undoubtedly a general decline in fitness from where I was at the end of the Pennine Way.
I used to walk along the canal regularly 5 years ago, and it was nice to walk it again and see how much some areas of it had changed, but also how little others had changed. Camden was just the same, but it seemed so different - although in reality it was my perspective that had changed as I am a lot older and wiser than the 18-year old who used to spend every waking hour around that area.
Another simple walk. From Paddington tube station turn left and then immediately right past the entrance to Paddington Mainline station. When you meet another road, turn right and head down to the roundabout. Turn left at the roundabout, past the builders merchants and then onto the canal banks to Little Venice.
From Little Venice turn right down the Regents Canal. before long you have a short tunnel in front of you, to which you have to take to the roads above. Once you rejoin the canal, simply follow it all the way past Regents Park and London Zoo, Camden Lock, Islington (where another tunnel forces you to take to the roads past Angel) and down to Mile End. The walk can be extended by just over a mile to Limehouse Basin and the Thames.
The whole route is quite well signposted, although in some areas the signs cannot be read due to graffiti and vandalism. it is almost impossible to get lost, though, especially with an A to Z to help you past the tunnels.
This makes a total distance of 8.3 miles, with 138 feet of ascent and 187 feet of descent.

A small but steady stream of threads, particularly ones relating to major planned events, are reaching 100 posts and automatically being shut down, generally re-emerging very soon after with a "part 2". I find this fragmentation annoying and unnecessary - with the benefit of experience is it time to consider raising the limit a bit?
Same here. Find it a bit strange too.
I agree. Made no sense to me to force threads to get split.
I'd sit on the helmet given where you are about to get kicked!
I've always thought the post limit was daft too.
Perhaps a limit of a 100 made sense in the early days of SOTA when the community was smaller. But now it's grown, this is going to happen more often with more people on the reflector. That's a sign of the success of SOTA.
I am sure there are arguments both ways for the review limit to be kept at 100 or increased.
The present limit of 100 does not impinge on many threads. With the new contributions being added at the bottom you have an opportunity to review the thread before reading the new contribution. If the limit were increased then there would be a greater temptation to just jump to the new contribution and read it in isolation.
If the limit were increased it would also make sense to add the contributions such that the newest were at the top in the same way as the SOTA watch site.
Now THAT's a good idea - reverse order, if easy to implement, would give an immediate improvement (IMHO).
1 Vote for reverse order (newest post at top).
Answer: Because it breaks the flow.
Question: Why is reverse ordering bad in a threaded messaging system?
When I open a topic my device(s) take me straight to where I left reading on my previous visit. I can't remember changing a particular setting to enable that, but it works for me.
Back on topic. I seem to remember that one of the 'issues' quoted by some was the difficulty reading long threads on mobile devices. Apart from a couple of topics that (imho) were prolonged past their sell by date (easily solved by just stopping reading them), I don't think the old lack of a limit was over-abused. I agree with Paul, it does seem silly when a popular topic gets split.
Each to their own - but I find it more logical to have the latest at the "top of the pile".
Actually is this a user by user configurable setting in discord? (or have I got the name of the software behind the reflector wrong?).
I'm not against the idea of revoting. This might be like Brexit where once people experience what it actually entailed to implement, they'd change their vote.
The question is why do you need to see that latest post first? It would mean you miss posts which are older and results in posts essentially repeat what was posted earlier they failed to read.
You could actually just use the site as intended. For those who haven't actually noticed this software keeps a record of every thread you have read. When you log in, and click on the subjects you are taken to the first post you have not read. So by default, merely accessing threads gets you dropped at the next bit relevant to you. As this is on a per user level, it doesn't matter which device(s) you use for access. If I wander away from the shack and pickup my phone and look at this site it will show me the last view of it, which may not be the same as on the PC. All I do is touch the SOTA logo and the phone will update to synchronise the displays so the thread lists match and when I click, I go to the next post. This requires you log in otherwise the system doesn't know it's you and you have to spend redundant effort scrolling about trying to find things that are already automated.
Use it as designed and it makes things easier.
Neither am I. The old figures show the relative levels of support for what was implemented.
Should that be the old figures don't … ?
At 52:48, I can understand the calls for a second Brexit referendum after 2.5 years, but also understand the fierce arguments against this.
At 64:18:18, I can not understand the calls for a second reflector vote after 1.2 years.
If only the Brexit result had been as convincing as 64:36 (for either side), it would have spared us a lot of this bickering. Or perhaps not looking at this thread.
As I said "each to their own" - I have checked and there is no option to change the sequence on a user preference basis supplied, so we have what we have. It's not THAT bad actually.
What I would like to see improved (I'm probably missing something very obvious!) is that when I am at the bottom of the thread on post 84 and I want to return to the thread overview page ("Latest posts" in my case), I first have to click on the topic title and wait to be returned to the top and then click on SOTA Relector title to return to my overview page. With the posts in reverse order I eliminate one step as the SOTA Reflector title is always present.
Clicking the three bars and then Latest is an option but it is still an extra step.
As the Bard would put it, "Much Ado About Nothing"!
Number of threads reaching 100 since the beginning of November 2017 = 28.
But by golly, we are a wordy lot!
Who's calling? All I can see so far are two comments suggesting the posters of those comments wouldn't be averse to a re-vote.
Is it so terrible to suggest considering a "tweak" to improve the functionality of the system in the light of 1yr+ experience of implementation of the cap on number of posts per thread?
But how do we define "severity"? How many of those threads were just pointless repetition, me-tooism or had suffered terminal drift? How painful is it to start up a part 2 thread? No, I still reckon the Bard nailed it!


Switzerland is to spend 1 million 300 thousand Swiss Francs on fighting human trafficking. The project which is aimed at fighting human trafficking through social work and mobilization of communities will be run in the Lviv, Ivano-Frankivsk and Donetsk regions, as well as in the Crimea. It is these regions which are seeing the greatest number of victims of human trafficking.
The project will work for three years. Later the experience of informing school students about human trafficking will be extended to other regions of Ukraine. As reported here already, the International Organization for Migration [IOM] estimates that 100 thousand Ukrainians have already been victims of human trafficking. Most of the victims are from small towns and villages.

Allard J2X With Ardun Heads on a Ford "Flathead" V8
Posted on September 15, 2012	by Steve McKelvie
In a previous post dated July 12, 2012 I was critical of the design of the Ford "flathead" engine. Recently I saw an Allard J2X that had a Ford "flathead" V8 engine that had been fitted with Ardun heads. Ardun heads are interesting on several levels. These heads converted the Ford "flathead" V8 engine into a hemispherical combustion chamber overhead valve engine.
A cross section of a Ford "flathead" engine fitted with the Ardun head conversion is shown below:
Ford "Flathead" V8 Engine Fitted With Ardun Heads (from C & T Automotive)
The addition of these heads to the Ford "flathead" engine increased the output of the 239 cubic inch engine from 100 horsepower to about 150 horsepower. The Ardun heads were designed by the Ardun Mechanical Corporation of New York which was headed by Zora Arkus-Duntov and his brother, Yura. Many of you might recognize the name of Zora Arkus-Duntov as the eventual Chief Engineer for the Chevrolet Corvette.
The Ardun Mechanical Corporation designed the Ardun head in 1947/1948. But unfortunately the Ardun Mechanical Corporation went bankrupt in 1949. Then in the early 1950s Zora Arkus-Duntov became involved with Sydney Allard, the developer of the Allard sports car. Allard pioneered putting American V8 engines in smaller, lighter British sports cars.
The first Allard sports cars were fitted with the Ford "flathead" V8 engine. Later Allard began to offer Ford V8 engines with the Ardun heads in the Allard J2 and J2X cars. An example of an Allard J2X with the Ford "flathead" fitted with Ardun heads is shown below.
1953 Allard J2X With The Ford/Ardun V8
In 1953 Zoro Arkus-Duntov joined General Motors and was instrumental in getting General Motors to install their new V8 engine in the Corvette. The Corvette has not looked back since.
Ardun Heads Mounted on the Ford "Flathead" V8 Block
Note the size of the Ardun heads on the Ford V8 engine. This typical of "hemi" engines. In hemispherical engines the spark plugs are mounted on top of the hemispherical combustion chamber with the intake and exhaust valves located each side of the spark plug. With the angles of the intake and exhaust valves in a hemispherical combustion chamber the result is a large head size. This arrangement and large head size is also very noticeable on all of the more famous Chrysler hemi engines. With single camshaft engines this wide spacing of the intake and exhaust valves results in very large rocker arms. I think that engines with hemispherical combustion chambers are great candidates for dual overhead camshafts on each bank of cylinders.
The Allard J2X Is A Rather Small Sports Car
This particular Allard J2X is said to be the only Allard in the United States fitted with the Ardun heads. As good as the Ardun heads were in improving the horsepower output of the 239 cubic inch Ford V8, the power output from these engines pales in comparision to some of the other engines that were also fitted in the Allards such as the Chrysler V8 engines with about 235 horsepower and the Cadillac V8 engines with about 250 horsepower.
This Allard Has Left-Hand Drive
The Allard cars are interesting as these were the first relatively successful cars that combined British car design with American V8 power eventually leading to the AC Cobra, Sunbeam Tiger, and the Jensen Interceptor cars, among others.
The Allard J2X Cars Were Widely Raced During the 1950s
See my post on March 9, 2013 about an Allard J2 with the 331 cubic inch Chrysler Hemi engine.

Al Halliday says:
diff topic. New to engine rebuilds. I have stuck 1947 mercury 1 ton with 239 flathead. Have carburetor off and wondering how I can tell which valves are stuck? I poured diesel fuel down top of intake manifold and it came out 3 of 8 sparkplug holes. Any help would be appreciated , thanks Al from Nova Scotia Canada
Russ Glidewell says:
I was aware that there was an overhead conversion for the Ford flat head but had assumed that the conversion was accommodated by installing a pair of SHARP heads from a Southern California manufacturer. It's obvious that ARDUN has solved that problem hands down but was there ever another solution?
Thanks. Russ

Urban Dern Cool Ouch Wow 15 Incredibly well-preserved bodies of the last 5000 years that have survived the ages spectacularly
15 Incredibly well-preserved bodies of the last 5000 years that have survived the ages spectacularly
Andrijadurlanac on February 25, 2018 No Comments Cool Ouch Wow
Juanita, the Ice Maiden
Sacrificed by the Inca priests to their Gods as appeasement, 14-year-old Juanita the "Ice Maiden" remained frozen in a volcano's crater for nearly five centuries. In 1995, archaeologists Jon Reinhard and his climbing partner Miguel Zarate unearthed her body at the base of Peru's Mt.Ampato. Lauded as one of the greatest scientific discoveries of the time, the body (estimated to be around 500 years old) remained remarkably intact and survived the ages in spectacular fashion.
Resting in the heart of Moscow's Red Square is the most spectacularly preserved mummy you will ever find – Vladimir Lenin's. Following the Soviet leader's untimely death in 1924, Russian embalmers channelled the collective wisdom of the centuries in order to breathe life into this dead man.
The organs were removed and replaced with a humidifier and a pumping system was installed to maintain the body's core temperature and fluid intake. Lenin's mummy has remained horrifyingly lifelike to this day; in fact, it even continues to "improve with age".
The Franklin Expedition Mummies
Hoping to find the legendary Northwest Passage – a trade route to the Orient, a hundred men set sail to the New World on two ships. They neither reached their destination nor returned home, and history was quick to forget them. Five years later, an expedition to the Beechey Island revealed the remains of a long-dead community, and among them a triad of mysterious graves – those of John Torrington, John Hartnell and William Braine.
When the bodies were exhumed and examined nearly a century later in 1984, archaeologists were taken aback by the outstanding degree to which they remained unscathed. They later attributed it to the tundra's permafrost and were able to accurately determine the age of the mummies – a staggering 138 years.
Argentinian politician Evita Peron's body disappeared three years after her death 1952, right when her husband President Juan Peron was deposed. As it was later revealed, Anti-Peronists in the Argentinian military stole her body and sent it on an odyssey through the world that lasted nearly two decades. When it was eventually returned to ex-President Peron, Evita's corpse had mysterious marks of injury all over. Peron's then-wife Isabella reportedly had a strange fascination with Evita – she perched her corpse at their kitchen table, combed her hair every day with the utmost reverence and even climbed into the coffin from time to time when she needed to "soak up her magic vibrations".
La Doncella
This 15-year-old girl was drugged with chicha and coca leaves and left to die as an offering to the deities by the Inca. There she remained frozen in a cross-legged position until her discovery in 1999.
Archaeologists had found two other girls with her, perched high on Mt.Llullaillaco. They had awoken from slumber nearly 500 years later, with all their clothes and hair intact. La Doncella's body has contributed much to our understanding of the Inca way of life.
Lady Xin Zhui
Wife of the Marquis of Dai during the Han Dynasty, Lady Dai's 2100-year-old mummy lived on in obscurity until its recent discovery. Her body was so excellently preserved that an autopsy was possible. Doctors were stunned at how put-together she was, despite being dead for a silly long time. The brain was intact, her limbs were bendable and she even had Type-A blood in her veins! "Diva Dai', as dubbed by her admirers, is the undisputed champion of mummies in the world. She is the single most well-preserved ancient human being archaeologists have ever found.
Ötzi The Iceman
Discovered in the Schnalstal glacier by Italian hikers in 1991, this 5000-year-old mummy has an arrow embedded in its chest. Nicknamed after the Ötztal Alps where he was found, the well-preserved body actually belongs to a man who lived 53 centuries ago.
Oetzi rests in the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology in northern Italy today and holds the title of Europe's oldest natural human mummy.
Ramesses the Great
Undisputedly the most enigmatic of all the Egyptian mummies, Ramesses III sparked intense debate on the circumstances of his death in the scientific community. After a lot of careful prodding and probing, it was discovered that he was one of Egypt's greatest Pharaohs during the 20th dynasty. Based on the 7-centimetre deep cut found on his throat, historians speculated that he was murdered by his sons.
Dashi-Dorzho Itigilov
This Russian Buddhist monk left his mortal coil in 1927 while in deep meditation. As was his wish, his students and fellow monks buried him the way he died – sitting upright in the lotus position. Years later when the body was exhumed and removed from its pine encasement, it was found to be well-preserved and still the way it had been left. Itigilov was eventually re-interred in a salt coffin.
orensic analyses revealed that the cells in the monk's body more closely resembled those of someone who had been dead only for 36 hours, not 100 years.
Tollund Man
This 2000-year-old body of a hanging victim is among the oldest of the dead the world has seen. Discovered in 1950 by Jutland farmers in the Danish Peninsula, his body looked so fresh that he was mistaken for a recent murder victim, not a man who belonged to the Pre-Iron Age.
A final autopsy revealed rope marks around his neck, concluding that he had been hung to death – a common occurrence in the area. Remains of vegetables and wild seeds were found in his stomach, which were probably the contents of the Tollund Man's last meal.
The Ukok Princess
This 2500-year-old body of a Siberian tribe-woman was discovered in 1993 amidst those of six horses'. Although it had not weathered the elements particularly well, the intricate web of tattoos on her skin drew massive interest and admiration.
The Ukok Princess likely belonged to the Pazyryk tribe who believed that painting elaborate designs on the body would help the dead to find others in the afterlife. The horses were an integral part of this as well, as they were thought to escort the dead safely to the other side.(
George Mallory
Attempting to scale the Mt.Everest is not an easy task – especially in 1924. George Mallory and his climbing partner Andrew Irving were determined to do just that, inadvertently casting themselves as history's lost pioneers. 800 feet below the summit was the last time they were seen alive – and never again until 75 years later. The expedition launched by NOVA-BBC found their bodies in a few hours, perfectly preserved except for the wear and tear on their clothes. Doctors later confirmed that the two men were tied together by a single rope and met their tragic fates when one of them fell.
Rosalia Lombardo
Italian embalmer Alfredo Salafia is remembered by history as the man who breathed life back into this little girl's corpse. Sleeping Beauty, as she came to be called, rests in a little glass coffin deep in the Capuchin Monk Catacombs of Italy. When she breathed her last in 1920, General Lombardo was so undone by grief that he decided he would not part his daughter's remains no matter what it took. The result can be seen to this day, as the world has not seen the likes of little Rosalia's corpse.
The Wet Mummy
This Ming dynasty mummy was found in a water-logged coffin on a construction site in China in 2011! Researchers speculated that she had been submerged for nearly 600 years, making her body ultra-resistant to the terrestrial elements that would normally have decayed it.
Among other things, she was buried with a large jade ring on her finger, a silver hairpin and an exorcism coin to ward off evil spirits.
Saltmen of Iran
The corpses of six salt-miners were discovered from 1993-2008 in Iran's Chehrabad salt mines. Killed accidentally under the massive weight of the galleries they were working in, these bodies were surprisingly well preserved due to the salt content in the ground.
Researchers determined through carbon dating that these men were alive 1,700 years ago and one of them even had type-B+ blood.

All human development and human rights issues have gender dimensions. UN Women focuses on priority areas that are fundamental to women's equality, and that can unlock progress across the board.
Providing access to employment and better income opportunities are among the most effective ways to empower women. Yet, the main challenges for women in Albania remain the persistent gender pay gap, few opportunities in the labor market, lack of skilled entrepreneurs and their access to services and credit.

Update from our investment manager, Sebastiaan Berger – September 2021
There seems to be light glimmering at the end of the tunnel for Cuba and by definition for CEIBA Investments Limited ("CEIBA" or the "Company").
The announcement made by the Cuban government in August 2021 that it expects 90% of its population to be fully vaccinated by November and that the country will begin gradually reopening for tourism at scale from 15 November 2021 has been well received. And the indication that no tests on arrival or isolation periods will be required for travellers entering with a vaccination certificate or a negative pre-flight PCR test will indeed help to kick-start the reopening of Cuba's tourism sector.
Miramar S.A., the Cuban joint venture company through which we hold our interests in the Meliá Habana, Meliá Las Americas, Meliá Varadero and Sol Palmeras hotels, has demonstrated its resilience by reporting (modest) profits in both years of the pandemic (2020 and the current year 2021). With the Meliá Las Americas hotel coming online as of 1 October 2021 and the Meliá Varadero expected to follow suit in Q1 2022 things will definitely start to improve for Miramar S.A. In addition, the largest asset of the Company, the office complex of the Miramar Trade Centre, has continued to show excellent returns by maintaining occupancy levels in the high nineties and benefitting from reduced costs of energy and labour that result from the Monetary Reforms that were implemented on 1 January 2021.
Nevertheless, there is also no reason to beat around the bush. CEIBA has had a difficult time. The Company just published its six months' midterm financial statements and reported a drop in net asset value (in US$, the functional currency of the Company) of some 7.3%. And it is clear that Cuba presently finds itself in a very challenging environment.

Extreme Meteorologist Reed Timmer's sense of euphoria was evident as he recounted capturing Colorado's first confirmed tornado of 2018 on video.
"It waited for me to get there," Timmer said of the high based twister that briefly touched down around 5 p.m. in fields about 12 miles southwest of Agate on the Eastern Plains. "It was a textbook, well-formed supercell. It was beautiful."
Timmer, who chases tornadoes, hurricanes and winter storms for accuweather.com, said the Monday twister was the best kind of tornado, one that strikes without damaging homes or buildings.
"Pure nature," he said. "It was in the middle of nowhere."
Agate is about 66 miles southeast of Denver.
Russell Danielson, meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Boulder, said Monday's tornado was an EFO, the lowest score on the Fujita scale.
"It looks like the first tornado we've had this year. These weak tornadoes are fairly common," Danielson said. Timmer's video helped verify the tornado touched down on the ground, he said.
The storm chaser said he spends much of his time on the road during tornado season. A promising weather cell is currently forming in North Dakota so Timmer will soon be making a 10-hour drive northeast, he said.


While Cinderella and Snow White did not personally appear at Livingston Junior High for the Cinderella Ball hosted by Central Baptist Church this past Saturday, plenty of local princesses did attend. Central Baptist Church Children�s Director Sharon Irwin and team spent months preparing to turn the Livingston Junior High black box into a magical ballroom, complete with a canopy of lace, lights and tulle. �Young ladies need to feel special, especially to their Dads and the Cinderella Ball was an opportunity for dads and daughters to spend time together. Even more, it was a time for Dads to model to their daughters how they should be treated when on a date,� said Irwin.
Next year�s ball is scheduled for Saturday, April 10 and all father�s and daughters are invited to attend. Tickets can be reserved by calling Sharon Irwin at Central Baptist Church at 327-5614.

H&M and Love Stories have teamed up for an affordable fashion-forward lingerie capsule.
The collaboration marks the first time for the Swedish high street giant and the Amsterdam-based lingerie label. The capsule consists of a gorgeous and comfortable range of bralettes, briefs, and thongs along with sleepwear, an eye mask, socks and travel pouches in lace, satin, and soft polyamide.
All of the pieces in the collection were designed together by the H&M in-house team and Love Stories and have the distinctive Love Stories print and color combinations. All items have Leopard print, stars and bold florals mixed with lace, athletic stripes and ruffled edges in shades of pink, black and olive green.
'Lingerie has always been an important part of fashion. With this collaboration, we really want to show that lingerie can be just as fun and expressive as clothes even if it's not always on view and therefore Love Stories was the perfect fit. We've long admired Marloes for her energy, her drive and, of course, her designs, so we're thrilled to be doing this together,' said Pernilla Wohlfahrt, H&M's Design Director in a press release.
'I like to call the collaboration between Love Stories and H&M our love affair! From day one, there was an incredible respect for one another and there was a chemistry between all the designers, so we blended together amazingly. The collection revolves around the classic Love Stories items – the bralette, the bikini briefs and thongs – and the perfect mismatches of prints and colors,' Marloes Hoedeman, founder of Love Stories said of the collaboration.
The H&M x Love Stories lingerie capsule will be available in selected stores worldwide as well as online from 9 August.

Canberra Chapter Christmas Lunch & Presentations
15 December 2020 / Words by Rod Nicholas. Photos by Keith Monaghan and Rod Nicholas
With a ho ho ho
And a chink of glass
We'll end the year
With a touch of class.
The Canberra Chapter wrapped up the 2020 Events Program with more than just a touch of class and a very enjoyable lunch at the Yowani Country Club, hosted by our Convenors Peter and Annemie Wilson.
The Plague had left our year somewhat dis-jointed, and we had to put several planned events – social gatherings and runs – on the back-burner as Plague-induced restrictions kept us off the roads. It might not have gone to plan, but the year was far from a write-off.
We got off to a good start before the restrictions kept us at home, but as the restrictions eased, alternative runs were plotted to make the most of what we were allowed to do. All up, we managed to put on 22 runs and held eight of our Coffee & Lies meetings, which I expect you will agree is a commendable effort.
So, to celebrate our achievements, we gathered at Yowani for lunch. Forty-seven members attended, and we had the pleasure of the company of our Club President Keith Monaghan who journeyed down from Sydney to join us.
After a delicious lunch (well done Yowani!) and a great deal of chatter (there is always a great deal of chatter), we got on to the presentations part of the day. Convenor Peter thanked all those involved in the Chapter throughout the year – those who took active roles in the 'administration' (Runs Committee, Website etc), Run Leaders, those who helped with social events, and (of course) all the wonderful members who joined runs, attend C&L and otherwise helped to make the Chapter such a joy to be part of. Peter also welcomed our new members and hoped their first taste of the Chapter this year was enough to have them coming back for more.
Our recent Convenor James Schiemer and Keith Monaghan outlined the process to determine the Member of the Year (in a nutshell, points are awarded for participation in various Club activities – organising an event, participating in an event, preparing reports, submitting photos and sundry other activities). The points are tallied by the boffins in Sydney and Hey Presto a name pops out of the system.
Congratulations go to:
Rod Nicholas - Canberra Chapter Member the Year
Peter & Annemie Wilson - Canberra Chapter New Member the Year
Malcolm Fotheringham - Canberra Chapter Motorsport Member of the Year
President Keith took over to announce a couple of extra awards to members of our Chapter:
Rod Nicholas - Club Member the Year
Peter & Annemie Wilson – Runners-up Club New Member the Year.
But enough of all that palaver, the real interest was in who would receive recognition and adulation as the Best-Dressed Lady and the Most Over-the-Top Gent's Outfit. By unanimous decision (of a fully independent member of the Yowani crew), Joanne Blackburn was named the Best-Dressed Lady of 2020, and Martin Robertson the Most Over-the-Top Gent. Martin's socks were the pièce de resistance with their message of Christmas joy (that modesty – and good taste – prevents me from spelling out here).
Then there were the 'lucky door' draws, with prizes aplenty (it was particularly pleasing to see a couple of newbies – Frances and Lili – picking up a prize).
Congratulations to all the award recipients (and prize recipients)!
Our Lunch & Presentations was a resounding success – plenty of laughs, plenty of talk, plenty of tucker and a roomful of great people.
We had (all things considered) a good year, and can only look forward to a brighter, better, happier 2021.
Cheers all. Have a safe and happy Christmas/New Year. May you Zoom Zoom to your hearts content in 2021.
