Safety, comfort and adventure. What more could a diver want?
Full Face Mask Diving is helping to change the way we dive! From increased vision underwater, being able to communicate effectively, to a much more comfortable dive, full face masks are creating new possibilities for both instructors and divers alike.
The benefit of obtaining the SSI Instructor Specialty credential is that the Integrated Full Face Mask can be used for the SSI Try Scuba Program. This helps to ensure that the student's first underwater experience is with a mask that doesn't leak, fog up and which allows them to breathe in as natural a way as possible – not through a regulator, which often acts as a barrier to people wanting to try diving.
The course typically takes 2 days to complete.
The pool or confined water session is designed to allow the instructor to become familiar in using the mask in all the various positions, review the safety procedures and adjust while completing some skills.
After a theory session and review of the procedures, the instructors move to Open Water and complete the same skills that were mastered in the pool or CW and apply the whole aggregation together while on an exploratory dive.
At the end of the course – instructors are obtaining the Ocean Reef Instructor credential and SSI Specialty which will allow them to teach students either for the Integrated Full Face Mask and/or the UW communication.
Contact the Mare Scuba Concept Team to find out more about Full Face Mask training.

Dell Updates Venue 7 and 8 Tablets, Starts at $159
By Sherri L. Smith 02 June 2014
Dell's Venue tablets are getting a new look. The updated Venue 7 and Venue 8 tablets, available starting July 1, priced at $159 and $199 respectively. The pair of tablets boast slimmer dimensions and improved specs and an update to Android 4.4 KitKat.

Both tablets have undergone a slight cosmetic makeover, swapping out the sleek black soft touch rear panel for a black plastic textured finish. The new panel provided a nice comfortable grip on both devices. Dell has also redone the rear camera, ditching the chrome lining surrounding it in a black glossy plastic. Measuring 11.9 ounces, 8.5 x 5.0 x 0.35 inches, the Venue 8 is slimmer and lighter than its original counterpart 12.3 ounces, 8.34 x 5.1 x 0.38 inches. The updated Venue 7 (11.4 ounces, 7.53 x 4.6 x 0.35 inches) is somewhat heavier measuring 11 ounces, 7.6 x 4.65 x 0.38 inches.
In terms of display, the Venue 8's 8-inch screen resolution has been bumped up to 1920 x 1200 from 1280 x 800p. Keeping in line with most budget tablets on the market, 7-inch Venue retains its 1280 x 800 resolution. Dell has outfitted each tablet with Waves MAXXAudio Pro audio technology for what the company claims will be a premium audio experience.
The Venue tablets have similar specs including 1GB of RAM, 16GB of eMMC storage Intel HD Graphics (Imagination PowerVR G6400) with Miracast support. The new Venue 7 has been upgraded from 1.6-GHz Intel Atom Z2560 processor to Intel Atom CPU Z3460 while the Venue 8 has gone from a 2-GHz Intel Atom Z2580 processor to a 2.1-GHz Intel Atom CPU Z3480. For ports, each device offers microUSB, microSIM slot, a combination headphone/microphone jack. There's also a microSD card reader expanding the tablets' storage to 64GB.
Dell will also release a series of accessories for the tablets including a Dell Bluetooth Keyboard Folio, a Bluetooth Portable Speaker and a Duo Tablet Case. Venue 8 owners can also look forward to the Dell Venue Cradle capable of wireless charging. Pricing and availability have yet to be announced for the cache of accessories.
We're looking forward to testing the Dell Venue 7 and 8 against other budget tablets on the market including the Toshiba Excite Go and the HP 7 Plus.

Oh my, we were not expecting this at Little Valley Farm!
On a Friday afternoon, I finally managed to pick up the camera to see what activities were going on in the farm. I knew, I had one missing guinea fowl, thanks to a rather large patch of feathers across the lavender hill and one strangely, broken window in the train. Then there was remnants of a carcass inside the train.
The video tells the complete story!

Q: How to fire JavaScript Event after UpdateProgress is disposed on ASP.NET c#? I have a webform where I have a javascript function that evaluates whether or not it should display a div...
here's the function...
function viewCalendars()
            {
                if (document.getElementById('ddlDates').value == '5')
                {
                    document.getElementById('divSpecificDates').style.display = 'inline';
                }

                else
                {
                    document.getElementById('divSpecificDates').style.display = 'none';
                }

                return;
            }

I also added this to my form

//Everything

So even if there was a postback, it will show the div if the dropdownlist has an specific value selected.
However, I recently added both an updatepanel and an updateprogress... and now I think that the  will not work anymore since a postback will not occur.
Here's what I have now...

        </title>

        <link href="css/Style.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet"/>

        <form id="form1" runat="server">
            <asp:ScriptManager ID="sm" runat="server">
            </asp:ScriptManager>

            <asp:UpdateProgress ID="UpdateProgress1" runat="server">
                <ProgressTemplate>

                        <asp:Image ID="imgLoading" GenerateEmptyAlternateText="true" runat="server" ImageUrl="~/images/loading.gif" />

                </ProgressTemplate>
            </asp:UpdateProgress>

            <asp:UpdatePanel ID="upd" runat="server">
                <ContentTemplate>
                    <asp:DropDownList ID="ddlDates" CssClass="tbox" runat="server">
                    </asp:DropDownList>

                    <asp:Button Text="Filtrar" CssClass="btn" runat="server" ID="btnFilter" onclick="btnFilter_Click" />
                </ContentTemplate>

                <Triggers>
                    <asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="btnFilter" EventName="Click" />
                </Triggers>
            </asp:UpdatePanel>
        </form>

So, I noticed that after you click the btnFilter button, it's function will be triggered, while the updateprogress is visible, but after it disappears (and the btnFilter function is completed) divSpecificDates is not visible when it should be visible. I suppose that I have to call viewCalendars() after everything is done...
How and where do I have to call for this function??
UPDATE:
I just got rid of the updateprogress... and it's still not working, so I guess the problem is not there... probably it's on the updatepanel

A: When the UpdatePanel is updated, the DOM is change, and you need to re-run the initialization's that you do when you load a page. This are done with javascript function that asp.net includes when you add the UpdatePanel. So remove the onload from the body and use the pageLoad.
So remove the onload from this line

and add this script

Similar how to keep javascripts after UpdatePanel partial postback

Run Runaway
After pounding the stage for ten years and never really obtaining the popularity they so desperately sought and, quite frankly deserved, Slade's 12th studio release—a repackaged affair of sorts featuring tracks from The Amazing Kamikaze Syndrome (worst title and cover ever!)—proved to be the band's most successful North American release with two singles making it into the US Top 40 charts in 1984. Who says this isn't a cruel business?
The thing is, as soon as I heard "Run Runaway," I knew it was gonna be huge. Forget the nonsensical verses — the anthemic chorus, crunching guitar riff and galloping drum beat are an irresistibly infectious dance inducing noise when blended with just a hint of a Scottish jig. Despite this classic track—and the equally wonderful "My Oh My," Keep Your Hands Off My Power Supply is where I eventually parted ways with the band that started me on this 45 year-long musical sojourn. "Run Runaway" would prove to be the band's last Top 10 hit in the UK. After that, they released a couple of forgettable albums and then split up in 1992. By then, I suppose they had become dreaded dinosaurs of rock with more to lose than gain by staying in the game.
Noddy, Don, Dave and Jimmy
At their core, Slade were cocky glam rockin' geezers from Wolverhampton, England. They had bad haircuts, ridiculous fashion sense and a knack for implying inappropriate innuendo at every opportunity. Always up for a good time and eager to entertain, they recorded hit songs that still makes me want to bust out the old air guitar and sing along. Theirs was rock and roll at its most basic chord structure, time signature, and certainly, songwriting. Nevertheless, I have a visceral connection with Slade's music that makes me happy to this day whenever I listen to it. The final song in my hand-clapping, foot-stomping tribute to Slade is
"Run Runaway" from the album Keep Your Hands Off My Power Supply.


Then place the artichokes dish back in the hot oven for another 35 to 40 minutes at 392°F (200°C). Turn off the heat after that and let the artichokes rest in the hot oven for another 30 minutes.
Step 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. To prepare the artichokes, trim each stem to less than 2 inches in length. Slice off the tips of the artichoke and snip the thorny tips with some kitchen shears.
Preheat oven to 260°C/500°F. Cut off stems and top one-third of the artichokes. Gently pull leaves apart to open up the artichokes. Peel and crush garlic. Transfer artichokes to a large baking dish.
To use the cooked artichoke heart in a recipe: Peel leaves from artichokes. Scrape off the inedible prickly "choke" to expose the heart. Cut the heart in half or as directed in a recipe. Scrape off the inedible prickly "choke" to expose the heart.

Unscrupulous!
Singapore November 16th, 2007
I do not understand why people have to resort to such underhand means sometimes. Is this what working in the real world is all about? Withholding information from their customers, cheating on their clients, squeezing the last drop from people who trusted them? It's people like them that creates a bad name for everyone in the same line.
I think people who have fallen into such traps should voice out about it. No doubt they may have been victims, but there should be a way to prevent more people from falling into such traps!
I remembered once when I went for an MLM talk. There were people who were obviously not ready to commit money into the products, but the sales people just coerced them into doing so by volunteering to fork out their own money first and getting the buyers to pay them back later.
Thank goodness there's supposedly the 7-day period that you can have to reverse your decision. I wonder if this is made known to the buyers.
Timesharing! I don't want to talk about it. Just thinking about it makes my blood boil. However, I guess it's 2-fold. If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.
A weekly look at what to watch out for in the world of consumers. Figures, case study and tips come from the Consumers Association of Singapore (Case).
The world of real estate
64 No. of cases filed (January to December 2006)
Top complaints
1. Misrepresentation
2. Failure to honour contract
A consumer signed an agreement to buy a flat for $203,000 and paid a deposit of $3,000. The estate agent of the seller of the unit misled her into signing a commission agreement and did not inform her of the option-to-purchase (OTP) form. When the consumer decided not to go ahead with the purchase, the agent claimed she would suffer a big loss.
The consumer was not told of the eight weeks of moving in (clause 12 of agreement). The agent also failed to give her the contract and relevant documents for the sale of her unit. The consumer was unwilling to pay any commission on the flat she bought since she was misled into signing the commission agreement. She was willing to pay only a commission of 0.5 per cent of the contract value for the sale of her own flat.
OUTCOME OF CASE
After Case negotiated on her behalf, she paid only 1 per cent commission of the contract value for the sale of her own flat and 0.5 per cent commission of the contract value for the flat bought.
1. The OTP is a legal contract and a prescribed form under the Housing and Development Act.
2. Know your rights. Buyers of resale HDB flats have 14 days to think over their intended purchase and decide if they want to exercise the option. To enjoy this feature, buyers should sign only the option portion of the OTP. The option fee will be kept by the seller if the OTP is not exercised within the 14 days.
3. Consumers should be given the full 10-page OTP and also read the 'Important Notes' attached to it.
4. Learn to say 'no' and do not allow yourself to be subject to duress. Do not be pressured.
5. Consumers with unresolved disputes can call Case on 6463-1811 for advice and assistance or file a claim with the Small Claims Tribunal.
6. Be mindful about details such as the agent's credentials, agreed commission amount, conditions concerning the property to be sold or bought, and parties involved in the transaction.
7. According to the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act, an agent who commits an unfair practice (like applying undue pressure on the consumer) is in breach of the Act and consumers have the right to seek redress.
8. If you are a buyer who has responded to an advertisement from a housing agent who is selling a property on behalf of his client, Case's stance is that you do not have to engage him as your agent if you agree to buy the flat.

New York lets broad mask mandate expire, but not in schools
Wednesday, February 9th 2022
ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — New York Gov. Kathy Hochul announced Wednesday that the state will end a COVID-19 mask mandate requiring face coverings in most indoor public settings, but will keep masking rules in place in schools for now.
The broad rule requiring masks in places like shops and offices was put in place in mid-December as the omicron variant of the virus began infecting huge numbers of New Yorkers.
It was set to expire Thursday.
Hochul has been saying she wants to see vaccination rates for children increase before she gets rid of a state requirement for masks in schools.

Royal Oak is a city in Oakland County of the U.S. state of Michigan. It is a suburb of Detroit. As of the 2010 census, the city had a total population of 57,236. It should not be confused with Royal Oak Charter Township, a separate community located nearby.
It is the 5th-largest city in Oakland County and the 18th-largest city in Michigan. The area is known for its shopping, dining, and many cultural activities.
Royal Oak was incorporated as a village in 1891, and as a city in 1921. The city's name originates in 1819, from one of Territorial Governor Lewis Cass' expeditions surveying land. A tree located near the present-day intersection of Crooks, Rochester, and Main reminded Cass of the Royal Oak tree within which King Charles II of England hid to escape the Roundheads following the Battle of Worcester.
Royal Oak is home to the Detroit Zoo, one of the region's leading tourist attractions. Mark Ridley's Comedy Castle, a comedy club, was an early venue for performers such as Tim Allen and Dave Coulier.

Sony Reader Adds Stores
by Jim Milliot |
With rumors flying that two major companies are about to launch new electronic reading devices, Sony has quietly expanded the distribution network for its Sony Reader. When it debuted last November, the Reader was available only through Sonystyle retail stores and several hundred Borders superstores. Since the holiday season, Fry's Electronics, J&R Electronics and B&H Photo & Electronics have added the player, while some smaller specialty chains, such as DataVision, RCS and ABT, are also now carrying the device. CompUSA is expected to go national with the Reader later this month.
Borders spokesperson Anne Roman couldn't provide sales figures on how the Reader has performed, although she noted that the chain was "very pleased with the customer reception" of the player. Roman said Borders will continue to carry it, although she wouldn't comment on whether the retailer will add the player to more stores.
There are now more than 12,000 titles available for the Reader; there were about 10,000 at launch. E-books can be purchased only through the Sony Connect online store, where they sell at about a 20% discount compared to suggested e-book prices, which are generally substantially lower than print prices. The price for the Reader itself has not come down since it was introduced; it continues to carry a suggested retail price of $349.99.
Shortly after the launch of the Reader, Sony started an e-book bestseller list. The top 10 bestselling e-books for the week ended February 23 were all from major houses, and with the exception of Bill Bryson's A Short History of Everything, were all fiction titles. Four of the top 10 titles, including Sony's top seller, James Patterson's Step on a Crack, were also on PW's hardcover list for the same week.

Brighton and Lewes Downs UNESCO Biosphere Reserve: Covid-19 Contingency Plans
Home > Programmes > Policy > Case Studies
What are #CaseStudies?
The UK National Commission for UNESCO's case studies are a series of studies that focus on specific interactions between UNESCO's programmes, designations and objectives and the UK
PUBLISHED 25 JUNE 2020
This case study is featured as part of a number of examples relating to the National Value of UNESCO to the UK report

Brighton & Lewes Down UNESCO Biosphere Reserve joined the UK Network of Biosphere Reserves in 2014, as part of the UNESCO Man and the Biosphere (MAB) Programme.
As the UK's only urban Biosphere, also known as The Living Coast, the team have been helping their communities connect with the healing power of nature from the safety of their homes throughout the Covid-19 response.
They have utilised their website https://thelivingcoast.org.uk/ and social media channels to bring the great outdoors indoors through the Nature2020 project, marking the end of the International Decade of Biodiversity and promoting learning about the local flora and fauna through a nature ID app and associated learning support tools.
Neighbours in Brighton's Roundhill area decided to take part by creating Nature Windows for the Spring Equinox, on 20 March, using a variety of colourful materials. https://www.nature2020.org.uk/mynature2020
At the end of April the Biosphere Reserve issued the City Nature Challenge where individuals could take part at home in the global challenge to record biodiversity together with other cities across the world. https://twitter.com/search?q=%23CityNatureChallenge
Another initiative was the Back Garden Bird Race, where people were asked to sit in their gardens or look out of their windows for one hour every weekend and note down all the wild bird species that they saw. Details of sightings were entered on the Nature Table Facebook group. https://sussexwildlifetrust.org.uk/backgardenbirdrace
As lockdown has eased slightly, the Biosphere Reserve have helped their urban communities explore greenspaces both within cities and towns and further afield, via an interactive map and through sharing downloadable walking routes.
Together with the North Devon UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and Biospheres in northern France, they are also supporting local, sustainable businesses through the Bio Cultural Heritage Tourism project, promoting businesses' sustainable journeys and local producers and makers through their charter: #WeAreTheLivingCoast.
A relaunch marketing campaign is planned to further support the important visitor economy, with sustainable development and Building Back Better at its heart, providing expert advice to local authorities in their environment and climate change recovery work.

then became magical fairy wands.
Soon they turned into witches brooms which we flew around the yard on.
After that we swept the sidewalk and dusted the play house with them.
Hours of childhood imagination and enjoyment came from those big, white, soft pampas grass fronds.
Today though, they will pull on their big girl pants, grow up a bit, and grace my entrance in all their fluffy glory as a Fall Door Swag!
We had planted several pampas grass plants at the first house we ever owned, but currently don't have any. So in lieu of sneaking to a neighbor's yard in the middle of the night and snagging a few fronds, I decided to head to the beach to my mom's house where she has an abundance. In my last post where I taught y'all How to Dry Hydrangeas, I talked about wanting to ease into fall decorating slowly because it's still very much summer here in coastal Virginia. A fall door swag decorated with lots of natural and native elements from our area seemed like a perfect idea!
STEP 1) Cut the pampas grass fronds, leaving about a 3-4″ stem on each. Arrange the fronds across from each other, fan them out a bit and tie the stems together with a piece of raffia or twine.
STEP 2) Lay your 2 wheat bundles on top of the fronds, then top with your crepe myrtle or berry sprigs. Tie all together with more raffia.
STEP 3) Spray everything, especially the fronds with hairspray. Yep, I said hair spray. It will help keep the fronds from falling apart and floating all over.
The fall door swag is simply hung to the door with a suction cup hook. You could also use a 3m Command hook.
That's all there is to it! Don't you love it? I do! I especially like how it's different than most door decor.
That's absolutely beautiful, and it's a great alternative to the usual wreath! I think I might try my own Hawaiian version. I'm kind of thinking either faux or preserved red ti leaves, local sea grass, bird of paradise, and kukui nuts maybe…we'll see where this goes!
Thank you so much KC! I think your Hawaiian version would look amazing! If you make it, be sure to show it to me!
THAT is so pretty Kim.
It really suits your door so well. What a beautiful welcome.
Happy Fall… the holiday season is starting. Can you believe it!?
Aww, thank you Shannon! Happy Fall to you too! I hear we are supposed to actually have temps by the end of the week in the low 70's so hopefully by then it will feel a bit more fallish around here!
Just love this–what a great idea! I have some tasseled ornamental grasses that I might play with as well. Thanks for the inspiration!
Beautiful arrangement! I too am a Virginia girl (central) and am not ready for fall yet but this is a nice transitional piece that works well as the days grow shorter and the nights cooler.
Kim – this is one of the best wreath decorations I have seen in a while and I love the beach twist. Pinning!
Pampas grass is one of my least favorite things to look at…until NOW…the creative way you used them on your front door is just genius! So pretty and fall-ish without the traditional Fall colors (which look kinda out of their element this time of year where folks like you and me still have summer-time temperatures).
I absolutely love both the wreath and this beautiful Swag..
Not sure where in Ga. i would find Pompas Grass but i would love to make that beautiful swag..Wonder if Hobby Lobby would have something suitable !!
LOVE YOUR work, ty ..


The liver cleansing diet improves your body's immune system, overall health and helps to establish an ideal body weight. For those individuals that are fighting off a chronic illness or often lose weight unintentionally, then the liver cleansing diet will cleanse their livers and can offer a healthier appetite to help keep their body weight where it needs to be. If you are not looking to gain weight but rather lose a few pounds instead, the exact same diet can eliminate cravings and help to restore your health overall while it also helps with your weight loss.
Before you begin your liver cleansing diet, you need to document any symptoms that you are currently experiencing. The things to look for are allergies, body odor, cold hands, diarrhea, erratic blood sugar, headaches, menstrual cramps, PMS, varicose veins, anxiety, high blood pressure, constipation, dry hair, flatulence, hemorrhoids, mood swings, slow healing, weight gain, asthma, low blood pressure, cravings, dry skin, foot pain, insomnia, high sweats, stress, bloating, cold feet, depression, low energy, gall bladder problems, joint pain, poor concentration and unclear thinking.
You will want to revisit this list that you have made once a month to note any differences that you are improving on as your body gets healthier. It is always helpful to keep a journal or a food diary to review your food in take and healthy changes. Keeping a diet journal while you are on your liver cleansing diet is always recommended. It not only serves the purpose of tracking what you eat but also how you are feeling. Plus, this is a good motivational tool to use when you feel yourself with the urge to stray away from what the best choices are for your body. It is proven that the root of many problems can be due to an unhealthy liver.
Cleansing your liver can also help to correct acne as well as other skin issues. Why would a liver cleansing diet affect your skin? Well, everything that you consume passes through your liver via your bloodstream. There are many toxic substances that end up having to be stored in the liver since this is where toxins are to be removed from your blood. Therefore, these extra toxins that you ingest lead to a congested, sluggish liver that can not only affect your skin but your energy levels as well.
Unnatural toxins that you ingest can come from junk food, food preservatives such as MSG, antibiotics, carcinogens, prescription medication, hormone treatments and sugar or artificial sweeteners.
The liver cleansing diet will require you to focus on consuming healthy whole foods, especially legumes and whole grains. You also need to drink a lot of bottled water to flush toxins out of you system. You will want to choose foods that are low in saturated fat, high in fiber and low in sugar.
You will want to eat a lot of fresh vegetables and fruit on the liver cleansing diet. This will help to provide living enzymes to your body to build healthy cells. Turning your fruits and vegetables into a fresh prepared juice is also ideal since it provides enzymes and vitamins without taxing your liver from the digestion process. Additionally, fish should be added to your diet at least twice per week and when selecting your salad ingredients, choose dark leafy greens.
The liver cleansing diet will help you lose unwanted weight and restore energy while doing so. However, detoxification can be sometimes unpleasant from days to weeks, depending on the individual. Detox symptoms may include headache, nausea, fatigue, loss of appetite, dizziness and diarrhea. This is just your body's withdrawal from unhealthy toxins. Stick with your diet and once you get through these withdrawals you will feel like a brand new person.


Your kids do it all: baseball, basketball, swimming, soccer, and more. And that means they collect it all: cleats, balls, bats, jerseys, and a lifetime supply of those little white socks. As for organizing it all? The trick is to break it down into sections of the house. Here's your game plan.
While bike racks come in tons of shapes, sizes, and price points, all of them free up valuable floor space, meaning they're a worthy investment. If you're just looking to get the job done—no frills needed—a simple solo bike rack like this Racor model works wonders. Meanwhile, a more handsome version doubles as a wooden shelf (and, considering its handsomeness, could easily be used inside the house). And, as there is with most things in life, there's also a DIY version; this one involves stuff you might find around your house, like hooks, spray paint, and a bunch of nails.
For easy access to the most frequently used gear, open storage is the way to go. Tall wire baskets will de-clutter an already crowded garage in addition to looking pretty cool, too. If you have multiple kids—meaning multiple sets of equipment—you might need to haul in a bigger setup. This universal organizer from the Organization Store will neatly stash balls, helmets, skates, and whatever else your family's various sports teams require.
Mudrooms are supposed to get dirty—hello, "mud" is in their name!—but that doesn't mean the area has to be a complete mess. Jen of the blog iHeartOrganizing constructed a multi-part storage catchall for her entryway: The bottom consists of three bins for cleats and sneakers, built into a bench that doubles as a shelf. In the middle are three hooks for bags, jackets, and other hang-able items. And at the top are cubes for storing any gear you don't want to leave in the garage. The whole thing is so genius, we wish we would've thought of it ourselves. Check out Jen's easy instructions here.
Jerseys, shorts, T-shirts, too many pairs of gym socks to count—where does it all go? The key is to separate athletic apparel from everyday clothes (e.g., designate a pile of folded practice tees and a pile of folded weekend tees). This allows for easier access when the fam is running late for practice or on game day. Oh, and a tip for all those socks: Stick with folding each pair rather than balling them up, as the latter method strains the elastic in the ankle.
No list of sports gear is complete without trophies, plaques, medals, and other mementos from each season. Whether your kid has racked up a grand total of one or is approaching double digits, he or she should be proud of those accomplishments! A dedicated shelf works just fine—don't forget to incorporate the rest of the team, as in this tutorial from interior design blog The Yellow Cape Cod. Overachievers, on the other hand, might need an entire dedicated wall.


Toothpaste helps in keeping your teeth clean and it is something which will be used on a daily basis in any household and used twice daily by many users. Most common flavor of toothpaste used around the world is Mint. Toothpaste has a composition of Abrasive, humectant, water, binder, detergent, preservative, therapeutic agent and flavor which is the aspect we are concentrating on.
Over the time, there have been many flavors of Toothpaste have been released to help cater to everyone's choice and taste. Children are the most difficult to brush regularly and having different flavors helps in making them look forward to brushing.
This is one of the least expected flavor to be used in a toothpaste, Chocolate is the worst food substance to the tooth and most dentists recommend patients to avoid Chocolate most of the times. Having a chocolate flavored toothpaste give the dentist no option to not recommend this to the patient and chocolate lovers are happy with this as well. Unfortunately, it was a limited edition flavor by Close up.
Now this is another flavor which will be loved by Whiskey lovers who would love to have the taste in their mouth early in the morning as well. This flavored toothpaste is Scotch Whiskey flavored by Six Proot, by the appearance of the tube it looks old and no clue if it is available presently.
Who does not like Oreo? and for people who are concerned about ruining their teeth by eating the cookies regularly can opt for this flavored toothpaste if it is real. We found it on the internet and cannot confirm the credibility of the toothpaste. But surely whoever got this idea nailed it.
This is one the most unique toothpaste flavors available by Marvis. The Licorice flavor is used in candies etc which is loved by most. This is going to be a treat to brush every morning with the flavor running through your mouth.
Are you a lover of Coffee? I surely am one and who does not love bed coffee, but this toothpaste takes it a step further and now you can start your day with not just bed coffee but coffee flavored toothpaste to give you day the perfect start.
Bacon is one of the most admired food which people are mad about and if you are one of them do check out this Bacon flavored toothpaste named Mr. Bacon's. It comes with its own tag line of "Makes your Breath Bacon Fresh!".
This is one the strangest flavors of toothpaste which one can think of, who would like to brush with a curry like tasting toothpaste early in the morning?
One of the sweetest flavors of toothpaste in the list which can make your day i.e if you love the taste of honey. Honey is said to be very beneficial to health as well, hope some of its properties are available in this paste as well and not just the flavor.
Another Toothpaste flavor to satisfy your sweet tooth. A cupcake flavored toothpaste which comes with the tag of "Makes your Breath Frosting Fresh".
This is also one of a kind taste to satisfy your taste buds, to all the fans of Coca Cola soft drink now you can get the same tasting toothpaste which even comes with Ultra Cavity Protection.
This is one of the strangest flavors you can expect in your toothpaste. Champagne which is mostly used for celebrations, with this toothpaste flavor your celebrations start early in the morning starting with brushing with this flavor.
One of the natural Fruit flavored toothpaste in the list, this blueberry paste is named Dental Spirit and make sure that you keep it away from any Bears around.
There are many strange and weird toothpaste flavors available in the market and do let us know in the comments which flavor do you love and if there are any other interesting ones which are worth mentioning in the list.

The NHS pay deal – accept or reject?
Kathy Oxtoby
It's been eight long, austere years since NHS pay was capped. Now NHS staff in England, including community and district nurses, could receive a pay rise of between 6.5-29% over three years after NHS employers and unions agreed a new pay deal for its members to vote on.
Kathy Oxtoby looks at the new NHS pay deal and the choice faced by community and district nurses in whether to accept or reject the proposal
All 14 unions on the NHS Staff Council, who represent Agenda for Change members, have been part of the negotiating process on this proposal.
After nearly four months of complex negotiations the proposals on offer to members were announced in March. Helga Pile, Unison's deputy head of health, believes the proposals achieve 'the key reforms to the Agenda for Change pay structure that we have long argued for, including better starting salaries and getting staff to the top of bands more quickly'.
Under the terms of the proposed deal, nurses at the top of their current pay band will probably receive a 6.5% pay rise from April 2018 to April 2021, plus 1.1% in a lump sum in April 2019. Those at the bottom of their current pay band will receive anything between 9-29% more.
Unions have been putting the deal to their members via consultations. Nurses must be a member of one of these unions to vote on the pay deal during the consultation period.
Whether nurses accept the deal or not will be influenced by what their unions advise them during the consultation. Nursing in Practice spoke to representatives of the five main unions representing nurses and midwives, who have outlined key themes for the profession to consider when weighing up their vote.
The proposed deal could be viewed as a 'good news' story for nurses because it busts the 1% pay cap. 'At long last, after eight years of pay austerity, there has been a significant recognition that this harsh pay regime imposed on hardworking and dedicated NHS staff can no longer be sustained,' says Sarah Carpenter, Unite national officer for health, who led the union on its pay talks.
She says Unite's national health committee is recommending that its members accept the deal 'as the best that can be achieved at this time'.
'We know that it does not make up for the years of pay restraint in the NHS that the Government have inflicted on staff, but it is a significant step on the journey,' she told Nursing in Practice.
The Royal College of Nursing's (RCN) trade union committee has also decided to recommend that members accept the proposals. 'The RCN believes this proposed pay deal is the best that can be negotiated.
'It's not a "cure all" and won't resolve everything. But it's the best deal we're going to get from an austerity government,' says Josie Irwin, the RCN's chief negotiator for the pay deal and associate director of employment relations.
Ms Irwin believes the 'headline increase for everybody of at least 6.5% over three years provides certainty [during that period] at a time when there is a good deal of economic and political uncertainty, particularly with Brexit looming'.
The board of the Royal College of Midwives (RCM) is also urging members to vote 'yes' to the proposals as 'it's the best offer in the public sector at the moment without any doubt,' says Jon Skewes, the RCM director for policy, employment relations and communications, and one of the chief negotiators of the proposed pay deal (see Debate, page 18).
A boost to the lowest paid
During a time of austerity, another benefit of the proposed deal is its potential to increase income for those who are the lowest NHS earners. 'We especially welcome the boost for the lowest paid in the NHS. It has been right to strongly focus on addressing the issues of those who are paid the least, but who have struggled the most to cope with the savage impact of austerity,' says Ms Carpenter.
The proposals include the removal of overlaps between bands to increase starting and promotion pay. Unison believes the proposed deal will make the whole pay system fairer. 'As well as annual increases, major structural reforms will mean an increase in starting salaries in every band, and more staff getting to the top of their band quicker than they would under current arrangements,' says Ms Pile.
Ms Pile's noting of the quicker pay band progression is the result of a decrease in the number of incremental pay points in bands under the proposed deal, making it quicker for nurses to reach the rate for the role. By removing pay points, the three-year deal would put 85% of existing staff at the top of their pay bands, Ms Pile explains.
By increasing starting rates for all new joiners to the NHS at all grades, Ms Pile believes the NHS will be a 'more attractive prospect for new recruits', helping to 'ease the pressure on existing staff struggling to cope with increased demands on services.'
Unique to the public sector is a commitment from the Government to fully fund the pay deal to the tune of £4.2bn over the next three years. Ms Carpenter stresses that 'this is a fully-funded deal — "new" money, so it is not finance that is being taken away or diverted from cash-strapped NHS services'.
'This is something, we believe, the Government should have done a long time ago — and they should do so now for other public sector workers who have endured a similar rigid pay policy,' she adds.
Ms Carpenter claims that because the suggested pay deal is being funded with additional money 'no employer will argue that they have to cut patient care to pay staff'.
However the GMB, which is advising members not to accept the deal (see page 18), questions whether or not this funding will be provided for the full three-year period. Kevin Brandstatter, national officer at the union, says the funding of the deal can only be guaranteed for one year because there is a comprehensive spending review in the second year of the deal. 'The Government undertakes the review every three years and it will determine how much money actually gets spent on the NHS,' he says.
With trusts having 'massive deficits around their necks, which they are told they must reduce', Mr Brandstatter says the union's representatives are not convinced that all the funding of the pay deal will go to staff.
Inflation is another consideration for nurses looking at the value of the proposed pay deal. But views on and predictions about inflation vary widely, and whether it rises or falls over the next three years is difficult to determine. The RCN and RCM view the deal as helping to close the gap between where nurses' pay should be and inflation, which fell in January for the first time since June 2017.
But Mr Brandstatter says there are predictions that inflation will rise by at least 9% over the next three years, making the proposed average pay increase below the cost of inflation, and he suggests the potential impact of Brexit could make inflation rates even higher.
Like inflation, the outcome of the pay proposal is unpredictable. Unions are now holding meetings with their members to talk to them about details of the deal and will be responding to their queries.
Ms Carpenter says Unite has 'held many meetings with our members – with many more planned – to talk through the many parts of this proposal, including the changes to pay progression and the higher starting salaries for all pay bands.
'We are also dispelling the myth that there are any cuts to annual leave,' she says.
Ms Irwin says there has been a 'mixed reaction' from RCN members to the proposals. 'Some members who are very articulate on social media have been sceptical and not happy about the 6.5%, as they wanted more.'
But she points out that 'speaking to members on the front line, it's clear they accept something needed to be done about recruitment as well as retention', and while the proposed deal is not as much as they would like, 'nevertheless it's better than they might have expected'.
A lack of clarity
While 13 out of the 14 unions associated with the deal support the proposals overall, the GMB has been talking to its members since 15 April to discuss why, according to Mr Brandstatter, 'we don't believe this is an adequate pay increase'.
He says the GMB is meeting with NHS staff throughout country and 'making sure they get round to as many of our people as possible to explain to them what we're unhappy with'.
But once the votes are in, there seems to be a lack of clarity among the unions about what happens next. As to how the voting process will work – such as what will happen if a majority vote rules and whether it would mean the pay deal comes into force in July – the picture is as yet unclear.
All 14 unions will consider the results of their members' votes and this will inform their decision to accept or reject the deal. 'Hopefully we'll be able to reach a consensus. The health unions work together very co-operatively, and 13 of us think it's a good deal,' says Mr Skewes.
He adds if the decision on the deal did require the unions to vote on it, with the larger ones voting 'yes' and the smaller ones voting 'no', the smaller ones could be out-voted.
However, Mr Brandstatter says that while previously disagreements between unions around pay have meant those with the weight of numbers behind them have seen their view prevail, this time 'things are different'.
'We have hundreds of people voting to join us to debate [the proposed deal] and there are no rules about how we address this. We're not worried about being a lone voice,' he says.
And if one union returns a 'no' vote, he says: 'We don't know what will happen – we're in unchartered waters.'
If the unions agree to this pay deal, money will also be made available to the devolved nations of the UK. The amount will be decided by the Barnett formula, which takes the amount spent on public services in England and calculates an appropriate sum to filter through to the other UK nations. It will then be down to the unions in each of these countries to agree a pay deal with the respective
NHS employers.
Whether nurses decide to vote for or against the proposals, some unions feel while the suggested deal is not ideal, it's a start, and that they have done their best to get the best outcome.
As Ms Pile says: 'The proposed deal is not perfect, but it's a step in the right direction. Health unions deserve credit for changing the story so that now, instead of continuing to fight against the hugely damaging 1% cap, NHS staff have a real choice to make.'

We are falling back in time with trends like wide whale corduroy, fanny packs, white shoes, branded garments, chunky sneakers and suiting. These trends were made famous in part by such fashion icons as Annie Hall, Working Girl Melanie Griffith, and Twiggy. Often times it can take years or even decades for trends to circle back in time… but, somehow they always manage to resurface. I hear my mom say all the time "That's back in style?! I wish I wore that when… Wish I would have saved it!" How many times have you heard that?! But it's so true, things do come back around.
But let's not confuse these trends with fads which happened once upon a time and should never happen again! Now may be a great time to go rummaging through your mother or grandmother's closets for some incredible finds or hit up your favorite vintage stores. Nothing makes retro better than finding authentic pieces that you can freshen up by giving them your own personal fashion spin.
But if you are looking in department stores and online and seeing stuff that feels like you've seen it before, it's because you probably have! The curent stores and trends are reflecting is so heavily. So whether you want to go find fun and vintage finds or if you want to shop new these trends are out there and ripe for the picking! Go find the styles you loved from older movies or go find things that speak to you now and make it happen, make it work, for yourself!
Strut to Street: How Does Your Garden Grow?
Whoever said florals are just for spring was trying to keep a trend in a box. So break out of your square this season and let the florals fly. Fall's perennials come in every variety from delicate florets to bold bouquets.
You can do a great floral pump or flat if you wanted to add this trend in your footwear. You maybe want it in a great jacket/coat or even a handbag, for just a pop of it. But, for me… a great fall floral dress speaks to me on so many levels.
Florals will also pair amazingly well with so many of the other trends and can be a refreshing addition to your fall wardrobe. You can do a look that is edgy meets feminine with a gorgeous floral flowy dress and a great moto jacket over the top. Add in a studded boot or shoe of some kind and you are ready to rock!
Floral is a unique and different choice for a holiday party, as those quickly approach with it offically being December. You can add sparkle and shine to the floral and turn it holiday glam!
So don't box yourself in (or let anyone else do it TO you) and go for those deep, dark and romantic floral prints this season! You will not be sorry.

Speakong as an O person, O thonk a Natoonal O week would fly very well on Australoa toooo.
Jenny who is JennyO
Or on Ollonoos or Ondoana or Calofornoa or Hawaoo or Mossossoppo or even on Texas -- a truly self-effacong state whoch has no "O" on ot, loke Vermont and Oklahoma and Alaska, whoch are also self-effacong states wothout the letter "O".
stop what? we are excercising our godsgiven rights to peaceably assemble - well - in virtual assembly at least.

You people need to put a friggin' stop to this now!
We're getting complaints from the neighbours at both www.mudcas.org and www.mudcau.org.
They're getting nervous.
One could find that rather appealing!
Itmight be psychologically the most revitalizing thing this nation has ever seen if we declared a National "O" Week, in which for one week no-one was allowed to use the word "I" and if absolutely pressed to speak in the first person singular, had to say the letter "O" instead. Can't you just see the nation-wide scattering of egos this would bring about? The broken chains of narcissistic habit? The break out epiphanies?
Wow, that is SOOOO GROOVY. A chance for Bush to do some good for a change.
How would it fly in Odaho, is what O wanna know.
You should see the income I get from the medical profession alone!
Well, my initials are MD, but I'll let the Romas use them. If they pay me royalties, of course.
In fact, I'll let anyone use them, assuming that the royalties are paid on time.
What about those of us whose initals are also numbers? Are we scarce also (MD)?
From: Bunnahabhain
It's just as the Bee Gee's prophicised, in their all time boy band cover song favourite, 'Words'
"You think that I don't even mean a single word I say.
It's only words, and words are all I have, to take your heart
away."
You have to worry about "C" "M" "L" and "D" as well.
If people should run low on "I's - lover case "l"'s might suffice.
It's already happening, you see -- Bunn didn't have enough numbers to add two thousand and five to his post.
I would suggest we revert to Roman numerals, since V's and X's have always been underutilized figments of the typographer's art. I agree that "I"'s have been greatly abused in the last century, but they may enjoy an opportunity to do less ambiguous work for a change.
by Christmas, certainly - but christmas of what year?
Okay, I've done my bit. MY numbers are well stored in non-corrosive atomospheres inside inert barrels. My gusns are loaded and ready to defend my numbers from hoards of rampaging mathematicians, statisticians, and actuaries (I'd use guns instead of gusns except that I don't want to actually hurt anyone).
What you do with the information is up to you.
Tomorrow I inform the Legion of the impending shortage, so get your numbers before your number is up.
In that case, I'm claiming 12,345. We'll be there by christams at this rate....
I don't believe young children should paginate. They should wait until they are older.
...and five gallons of water per family member, candles, a bag of junk silver coins, at least a month's requirements in cash, a crank-powered radio, and plenty of Saran Wrap and duct tape.
WARNING!! WARNING!!! WARNING!!!!
ALERT! ALERT!! ALERT!!!
All MOABites! Take head!! Listen up!!! Be Prepared!!!!
I am letting you in on a secret so that you can Be Prepared when the time comes. You can either listen to me and come out of the Coming Crisis wealthy beyond your wildest fantasies, not to mention alive and healthy, or broken in health and spirit, destitute and scuttering in the gutter for a discarded cigar butt for dinner.
I am refering to the impending Number Crunch.
The world is running out of numbers. IP addresses are already scarcer than hen's teeth, ISBNs are getting that way, and Who Know What Will Be Next. Well, I do and I'm gonna let you in on it because Mother's children can and must survive the Number Crunch. And I'm doing this for free, because I'm a good-hearted sort of guy, but who wouldn't turn down a gift or a percentage of the take, either.
But what isn't widely known -- YET -- is that we are running out of ALL numbers. Think about it. Mathematicians have known for centuries that this day would come; why do you think that they call them "finite numbers?" And because of the current crowd in governments world-wide we are quickly running out of rational numbers, too! Integers, once the mainstay of arithmetic and accounting, are now replaced by...by...imaginary numbers!
These trends will culminate in your lifetime and mine (well, definitely mine, since I plan to live forever). Highly sophisticated regression analysis, applying the esoteric concepts embodied in Fermat's Second-To-Last Theorem and the crystalline arrays of Laplace Transformations, demonstrate beyond the shadow of a doubt that the world will run completely out of number no later than 2:37 p.m., April 14, 2007.
NOTE THE DATE! Americans will not be able to pay their income taxes!
But I offer to you, fellow MOABites, a chance to stockpile (i.e., hoard) numbers for the coming Number Crunch. There is a number mine here, and you can follow the links (or "veins", as numberologists call them) to more numbers. Most importantly, it doesn't matter if the numbers are pre-owned or even obsolete! Buff out the scratches and you can sell them as new! Accountants, tax attorneys, and even ordinary citizens will praise you while at the same time shelling out Big Buck$ for the numbers YOU had the foresight to stockpile. Your children and grandchildren will thank you, not to mention that they will be able to do their math homework and even paginate their term papers!
As I said earlier, this information is free. The seminars are what cost a bunch of money. And the inkjet cartridges.
Only if you decompose them to their constituent bosons. Most Cuisinarts can't chop that fine, so you may have to borrow the University's accelerator or ship your table scraps out to these guys for processing to make them more Gluon's speed.
Betcha if I go to the back door with table scraps in my hand he'd come quickly. My girls might even beat him to it--traveling at the speed of light IS relative (to how much you want the food being offered--and these two are always hungry!)
If you call, he will come; OR, if you call, he will stay away. Depends on the probability matrix of the moment and the direction of attention of the observer, I guess...
Invite him. You can never tell. This might be unfortunate, not being able to tell....
I've discovered the source of the fire ants in my bathroom (coming in via a little hole under the trim quarter-round behind the commode). I also found an earring that moonglow lost a couple of weeks ago. Getting ready for the holidays means clearing up some of the pest problems before guests arrive and the jewelry recovery is a nice bonus.
I don't suppose Gluon would come chase away my fire ants but leave my dogs alone? They don't need any more encouragement to misbehave.
Frankly, I much prefer Linux or Unix, But Circumstances Prevent.
Using WIndows does not qualify you as a pet owner; but it does certify you in certain other categories.
I run Windows, so my computer has bugs. Do they count as pets? I really don't care for them very much.
Trying to proof up my study against Gluon would require letting major space-time fabric remedial contracts, and the insurance company won't cover damage to the space-time continuum. Don't think I didn't ask, either!!! :D
The 'Cat crashed last night before I could post another thought:
Darned cat, he's here trying to hop into my lap and is purring and rubbing and trying to convince me that it is time to go to bed. He just rubbed up against the computer on the low shelf of this desk and opened the CD drive. Oy! Straight shot of cat hair in the works if he does that very often!
I know no one else has animals that interfere with their computing, so that may seem an odd, incomprehensible remark. But then there is Gluon, and I wonder if some of the fuss and bother Amos is going to in his remodel job has something to do with Gluon-proofing his den?
In the evenings for entertainment the tourists clog.
Little Reebok Island is a little-known little island in the Carribean, west of Birkenstock and south of Weejun Bay, hard by Loafer Key. It is known for its sole filet, and its strait-laced uppers class.
Shoe enuff!
Is that where the natives of San Diego dive from cliffs and catch coins tossed overboard by tourists in their teeth?
Jolly good shew. Oyez! Oyez!! Town crier grows muttonchops!! Nine o'clock and all's weeellll...
Mom, I am real tired. We are STILL shopping for bathroom bits and pieces and iti s exhausting plus today the bills on all this started coming in plus I had to redo about ten big fat stones on the waterfall and move furniture too. Please send money. I want to go to Little Reebok Island for a diving vacation...
Amos - I play a victorian Town Crier - in the US, in 1842.
BWL we've missed you! Once that "have you never opened 'that' thread" drops way below the line the curious will stop taking a gander and getting in will be easier.
I have some lamb in the freezer, that's as close as I can get to muttonchops.
Hi, Mom! Did you know that this is the birthday of Charles I of England? Yeah, the guy who lost his head over Parliament. And also James A. Garfield and George Rogers Clark and lots and lots of other people! And that on this day in 1915 Joe Hill was executed and that in 1985 Stepan Fetchit died and no, I don't think that the two events are related. And that in 1863 Lincoln delivered the Gettysburg Address?
But most importantly, Mom, this is the anniversary of something that has had profound effects on not only the United States, but the Whole World!
Yes, Mom. On November 19, 1959, the Ford Motor Company finally cancelled the Edsel!! Doesn't that give you a warm and fuzzy feeling inside?
What an absolutely remarkable coincidence! I'm not growing muttonchops! Will wonders never cease?
You're portraying a Victorian warehouse manager in a Sheridan revival?
What a bizaare coincidence that you would say "muttonchops" as I am growing muttonchops for my winter job.
After 174 fruitless attempts to open this thread since my last post I'm finally able to get in and don't have a damned thing to say.
So, I guess I'll just say the first thing that pops into my mand and that thing is....
"Muttonchops"
Oh, damsel, damsel, come away,
As fades the glittering light of day
And in the shadows of the moon,
Come sing with me the ancient tune.
Ah, lady, lady do not fret,
Your father wots naughtt of us yet,
And in no stable shall we sing,
I know a clean but cheap motet.
So let my notes thine flesh anoint,
So let thy fearsome doubts aroint,
And let me sing my song to thee,
And sing you me thy counterpoint.
Who peeked?
godsteeth! you lost me somewhere right around "stresses balance and clarity"!
I find it interesting though that the Italians peaked before the Germans...but then again, Italian being a Romance language one should expect that.
Hot Damn, les' talk music!
The Enlightenment/Age of Reason stresses balance and clarity - thus melody and phrase structure became clearly defined. Harmonic style simplifies as the numerous chord changes of the polyphonic baroque crystallize into a clear homophonic I - V - I structure. Overlapping phrases are replaced by periodic (antecedent-consequence) structures and clear cadential breaks. The meandering melodies of the baroque are replaced by short, distinct, classical motives. Counterpoint becomes the mechanism for reworking thematic material in developmental sections. Which of these practices can be traced to vocal traditions? Homophony? New forms or derivatives? Italian opera reaches its peak and the German opera tradition begins (Mozart and others).
The formal scheme is dominated by the multi-movement sonata per the trio, church, and chamber sonata, and the dance suite. Sonata means "to sound" and relates to instrumental music like canzona relates to vocal music.
We must not, however, forget that
...it is between the years 1480 and 1520 that the motet as an art-form progressed, favoured by the nascent devices of the modern school, with Josquin Després as leader. The outstanding feature of time motets of this period is the extraordinary skill displayed in weaving melodious counterpoint around a short phrase of plainchant or secular melody. Josquin (Canon of St-Quentin) stands head and shoulders over his fellows, and his motets were among the earliest printed by Petrucci, in 1502-05. In all, one hundred and fifty of his motets have been printed, the best known being the beautiful one, founded on the plain-chant theme of "Requiem æternam", on the death of his master Okeghem, and the settings of the genealogies in the Gospels of St. Matthew and St. Luke. His fellow-pupil, Pierre de la Rue, also composed some charming motets, of which twenty-five have been printed. One of the best known is founded on a theme from the Lamentations of Jeremias. Another famous motet-writer of this period was Eleazar Genet, better known as Carpentras (from the place of his birth), a priest and papal nuncio. His "Motetti della corona" were published by Petrucci, in 1514 but he is best known for his "Lamentations", which continued to be sung by the pontifical choir at Rome until 1587. A third motet-writer was Jean Mouton, canon of St-Quentin, whose "Quam pulchra es" has often been ascribed to Josquin. A fourth is Jacques Clément (Clemens non Papa), who issued seven books of motets, published by Phalèse (Louvain, 1559) Three typical specimens have been reprinted by Proske in his "Musica divina". Jacob Vaett composed a motet on this French composers death in 1558. John Dygon, Prior of St. Augustines, Canterbury, was a composer of motets, one of which was printed by Hawkins. Other English composers who cultivated this art-form in the sixteenth century were: Fayrfax, Tallis (who wrote one in forty parts), Whyto, Redford, Taverner, and Shepherd. Many of the Latin motets by these musicians were subsequently adapted to English words. Arcadelt, a pontifical singer, composed an eight-part Pater Noster; his better known Ave Maria is of doubtful authenticity. Willaert, maestro di cappella at St. Mark's, Venice, and "father of the madrigal", published three collections of motets for four, five, and six voices not a few of which are extremely inventive and melodious though intricate.
I can talk music!
Huh! and here Jim wassisname was saying we never discuss music on the MOAB - Little does he know!
Well, of course, if it weren't for music, man, that story woulda never been posted, I guess. So there's that. You might say the dominant theme is about music. Reading stuff like that, I find, is kind of a tonic.
Al Dente says hello, BTW...he's all up on that con brio stuff. And Al Lingue said he would drop in on you as he was going pasta there.
Amos, is that there story sumpin' to do with music? We were talkin' about diminished fifths at the Legion Hovel just last night, an' Anne Dante said they was gettin' more diminished the longer we sat there. She's shackin' up with Al Legro right now, two Italians makin' some beautiful lasagna together. 'Course, Al's got quite a pasta to live down, but Anne's aware of it and forgives him as long as he's "con brio", which Stinky told us means "with cheese" in Italian. Anyway, Al got out of prison a year or so back, so he's really an ex-con brio, and I guess that they scrape the cheese off when they put ya in the slammer. So, I was wonderin' if that stuff had anything to do with music, because if it did it was pretty funny and if it didn't it was still pretty funny, but not as much as if it did, you know? Handsome Herb explained that some of it had to do with music, so that's why I'm askin', because Stinky and Herb have a bet about it.
A fifth e-state would only obtain in A key.
A, C, an E-flat, and a G go into a bar.
The bartender says: "Sorry, but we don't serve minors."
So, the E-flat leaves, and the C and the G have an open fifth between
After a few drinks, the fifth is diminished: the G is out flat.
An F comes in and tries to augment the situation, but is not sharp
A D comes into the bar and heads straight for the bathroom saying,
"Excuse me. I'll just be a second."
An A comes into the bar, but the bartender is not convinced that this
relative of C is not a minor.
Then the bartender notices a B-flat hiding at the end of the bar and
exclaims, "Get out now! You're the seventh minor I've found in this bar
tonight."
The E-flat, not easily deflated, comes back to the bar the next night
in a 3-piece suit with nicely shined shoes. The bartender (who used to have a
nice corporate job until his company downsized) says: "You're looking
sharp tonight, come on in! This could be a major development."
This proves to be the case, as the E-flat takes off the suit, and
everything else, and stands there au naturel.
Eventually, the C sobers up, and realizes in horror that he's under a
The C is brought to trial, is found guilty of contributing to the
diminuation of a minor, and is sentenced to 10 years of DS without
Coda at an upscale correctional facility.
On appeal, however, the C is found innocent of any wrongdoing, even
accidentals, and that all accusations to the contrary are bassless.
The bartender decides, however, that since he's only had tenors for
patrons, the soprano out in the bathroom, and everything has become alto much
treble; he needs a rest -- and closes the bar.
I'm back! I've just read the hundred posts or so since I was last about, and I now know everything. Or at least that bit of everything which explains why people are scared of joining us in the Moab continuiumumumum ( how do you stop spelling that word?) I propose radical changes round here to remedy this. Or radical changes at least.
To this end, we will carry on as before, and the radical change will just happen. We will do it ourselves without intention or realisation, except those things caused by Gluon, which just happen....
How about the fifth e-state?

Harrogate date - The likable Josh Widdicombe.
I'm not allowed to tell you what Josh Widdicombe said about his appearance on ITV's Lorraine the morning I chat to him on the phone.
The popular comedian is a really nice bloke but you don't retain that reputation by saying the wrong thing to a reporter.
With his own sitcom now showing on BBC 3 and a lengthy British tour under way, says he can't wait for his Royal Hall date next week.
With his curly hair and slightly bumbling charm, being funny and being liked seems to come naturally to the boyish, grumpy-ish 32-year-old Josh, who I once saw perform in a water-logged tent at Leeds Festival.
The Hammersmith-born Josh said: "We went through a lot of possibles before deciding Jennifer was the best person for the role.
"When you start off in the business you never think you are going to end up acting with Jennifer Saunders. It's very exciting."
A regular on BBC 2's Mock the Week panel show, Josh says the atmosphere in the studio is as friendly and fun in the studio as it comes across on TV.
"It helps having people like Dara O'Briain and Hugh Dennis there for years. The filming takes around two and a quarter hours. I don't know how they get it down to half an hour when they edit it."
Having co-anchored Channel 4 talk show The Last Leg, it's a massive step for Josh to have his own sitcom named after him.
Still, he's not taking it - or himself - too seriously.
Having worked in Waterstones in Manchester after graduating in 2004, Josh went through a series of what he calls "dead end jobs" in London.
He was also, briefly, a sub-editor at The Guardian. Finally, Josh took up stand-up in 2008 after realising an office job really wasn't for him.
He also claims he wasn't a natural in the comedy game. But if Josh Widdicombe isn't who is?
Josh Widdicombe appears at the Royal Hall in Harrogate on Monday, Decemember 14.
