TIP! Purchase an eyelash curler. Most people often forget how great their eyelashes look when they use an eyelash curler.
Use a curler on your lashes. Many people do not realize how wonderful an eyelash curler can make their eyelashes look. Curling your eyelashes leads to more expressive and impressive eyes. Heated curlers have a long-lasting effect.
No matter what kind of skin you have, it's important to use a mild cleanser on your face one or two times every day. Take off all of your makeup before cleaning your skin. If you don't properly clean your face, it can cause clogged pores and often acne.
TIP! To plump your lips, use white eyeshadow just on top of the cupid's bow on your top lip, in the center. The increase in fullness is an illusion that is created by the highlighted area of the lip reflecting light.
Remove hair at least a day before applying a tanning product. Shaving or waxing will give you the best results. Remember to wait a day or two before applying your tan. Your fake tan will be even, creating a smooth look.
TIP! Regardless of any other measures you take to improve your skin, you need to stay hydrated. Water naturally cleans contaminants from your body, and drinking ample amounts of it can help you gain clearer, acne-free skin.
Try coconut oil on your face, as opposed to those pricey facial moisturizers. Virgin coconut oil penetrates the skin with needed moisture and reduces wrinkles and fine lines. Also, because it contains anti- bacterial ingredients, it is helpful in treating certain skin problems, like acne, psoriasis and eczema.
If you are going to blow dry your hair, be sure to use a heat protection spray beforehand in order to prevent damage. You can find this type of product in the beauty section of Target or Walmart or even at Sally Beauty Supply. This spray is great at helping hair dry faster while preventing split ends. It smells great and helps your hair retain moisture!
TIP! Your beauty may be improved by drinking milk each day. Research indicates that drinking milk helps your bones as well as your skin.
Incorporate exercise into your daily life. Exercising on a daily basis will help you stay limber and healthy. This is a must-have for any beauty routine. You should be up and active for at least fifteen minutes a day. This can be as simple as vacuuming your home or taking a walk around the block, but you must move and stay active.
TIP! Here is a beauty tip! A brand of waterproof, lengthening mascara will increase the volume of your lashes. There are many on the market that claim to be formulated for that.
Consuming more fruit juice is good for keeping your skin beautiful. Consuming fresh fruits and vegetables provides you with valuable nutrients. Fruit and vegetable juices are good for the skin, as well. Add them to your diet. Replace soda with fruit juice and your skin will thank you.
If your hair frizzes a lot, try using a natural bristle brush made with boar hair. A lot of people have frizzy hair, and have problems dealing with it. Using a brush made with boar bristles will help to contain frizz when you are drying your hair. Brush the affected hair gently while pointing the dryer downward as you dry.
TIP! Keep wipe around for makeup removal and keep them with your makeup. Beauty wipes can be used during makeup application to correct errors.
If you have dark circles under your eyes, try using rosewater or cucumbers to lighten the skin. Both of these have natural properties that will cool your eyes and lighten the skin beneath them. Take a cotton pad and dip it in some rosewater or cucumber juice. Placing the pads on your eyes for around 15 minutes.
Sometimes, all you need to be beautiful is a bit of handy advice. Hopefully this article has provided some. After reading these tips, you should now have an understanding of how to create a beauty regimen that will work for you.


During the last 44 years I've spoken with many men and women who did not understand much about God or His word. Most of them came to me with inquisitive hearts, honestly seeking answers to their questions. I always answered as best I could, while considering my own continuing journey to know more about Him. But there were also those who, like the Pharisees who came to Jesus trying to trap Him in some statement (Mark 12:13), or the Samaritan woman who at first wanted only to challenge Him (John 4:9-26), there were those who did not want to know truth, but instead wanted to justify their lifestyles or simply engage in an intellectual discussion for the sake only of entertainment.
"If you really want to know truth, then go to the One who is truth and read what He said. Read the New Testament. Even if you have read the Bible in the past, please do so again. Two chapters a day will finish the New Testament in less than four months."
"Use a good modern translation, preferably one without editorial commentary in the page margins. The New American Bible (Catholic Edition), the New King James Version, the New American Standard Version, or the New Revised Standard Version (Anglican or Catholic editions) are some of the high quality translations available. Start at Matthew's gospel and continue reading a couple of chapters a day until you finish Revelation. Keep a journal and each day write what you have learned, or what questions come to mind. Send me weekly updates on your progress so we can talk each week about what you are learning."
I tell them when they finish the New Testament, we will sit and talk about any other questions they might have that still trouble them. We will talk for as long as necessary – months, if necessary.
I assign the New Testament not because I consider the Old of little value; On the contrary, one cannot fully understand the New Testament without a fluent familiarity of the Old Testament. As St. Augustine wrote: The New Testament is concealed in the Old, and the Old Testament is revealed in the New. But the questions most people ask are more readily answered through the pages of the New Testament.
Satan is on a search-and-destroy mission. And his primary target is the church leadership team. If he can destroy your bishop's testimony, or your pastor's, the catechist, or the choir director, the collateral damage to the average pew-sitter is usually devastating.
Of course, even those who do nothing more than sit in the pew each Sunday are not safe from the devil's stratagem. Every Christian, even the laity, has a bull's-eye painted on his or her soul. If the devil can destroy any Christian's testimony, then think of the collateral damage he causes in the person's family, among friends, co-workers, and neighbors.
Oh, Lord, hear our prayers.
His name is Jonathan. Our meeting this evening at Kroger's Market is nothing short of God-ordained.
It began earlier today when Nancy returned home from shopping and told me she lost her credit card – probably in the Kroger parking lot. We knew it would be useless to try to find it, so she called the bank and cancelled the card. A few hours later we had dinner, and I decided to take my usual after-dinner walk. We needed butter, so I walked the 15 minutes to the store.
When I arrived, I thought on a whim to ask the woman behind the customer service desk if anyone had turned in a credit card. She told me, "No," so I thanked her and walked away. Not ten steps later she called me back. A man – Jonathan – was standing at the customer service counter. He had just turned in a credit card. He said he found it in the parking lot.
Ponder a moment what that means. The Holy Spirit wants us to know that those in Christ Jesus are God's profoundly artistic handiwork. Whatever your appearance, whatever your past or present, to Him you are poetry in motion, a wondrously beautiful composition of His ineffable creative love.

Q: How to get the details of a proof right during a exam? About me
I'm a computer science student, about to graduate. If everything works out as planned, I am going to do a cs master's program. I'm really into maths and theoretical cs, and therefore, I took any class related to these topics I could.
Question
Although, I'm able to learn the topics of a class very well, I fail in written exams, because I miss out on details that are important. I know what the details are, and why they are needed, but in an exam situation, I'm missing out on these, which leads to the failing the test, or a bad grade. In an oral exam situation I tend to be far better, which kind of strengthens the point of me learning well enough.
For my last exam prep, I tried to write as many proofs as possible, to get some sort of automation to it, but that didn't work out in the test later.
Is there a secret trick I don't know or any other advice that you could give me, to get proof writing in exams right?

Copyright Permissions and Infringement
FacebookTwitterLinkedInRedditPinterest
Understanding copyright permissions and infringement is important to minimizing your copyright risks. Below we explain the meaning of copyright infringement, followed by Q&As on obtaining copyright permissions and what constitutes copyright infringement.
You may also like our eTutorial, Obtaining Permission: The Copyright Permissions Request.
Understanding Copyright Infringement
Copyright infringement occurs when all of the following occur:
You use a work that you don't own the copyright in
There's no exception in the copyright law that covers that use
You didn't obtain permission
Infringement means that you're violating one of the exclusive rights of the copyright holder, such as the right to reproduce, distribute or display that work in public.
An infringer can face various risks, such as:
An injunction to stop further use of the work
Destruction or other disposition of illegal copies or devices used to make those copies
Legal fees for an infringement lawsuit
Payment of losses incurred by the copyright holder
Payment of profits gained from your unauthorized uses
Each country sets out remedies for infringement in its copyright act.
If you are contacted by a copyright owner or their lawyer about infringement, consult with your own lawyer to determine your best course of action.
Obtaining Copyright Permissions Q&As
Below are questions and answers relating to copyright permissions and infringement to help you ensure you're legally using copyright-protected materials. If you're using copyright materials on a regular basis, consider the Copyright Leadership Certificate program, an online training program to help you make day-to-day decisions about the legal use of copyright materials.
As always, don't rely on our short, practical answers as legal advice or opinions. Contact an attorney should you be faced with issues concerning copyright permissions and infringement.
During the COVID-19 crisis, is it legal to use any images, videos and articles in an online course?
It's best to first look towards your country's Copyright Act. Is there a fair use or fair dealing provision in your Act? If so, apply your specific circumstances to the purposes and conditions set out in the statutory language and make a judgment call as to whether you need permission. Also, check your country's copyright act to see if there are any exceptions for the use of copyright-protected materials in online courses.
If your organization wants greater certainty, then you could obtain permission from the copyright owner, use public domain works and link to content. You can also use Creative Commons licensed works within the terms and conditions of the license on each particular article, image or video you want to use in your online course.
I'm translating a book from French into English. Do I approach the publisher or author of the French book for permission to do so? And who owns the rights in the English translation?
It's a good assumption that you need to obtain permission to translate a book. Contact either the publisher or author, whoever is easier to reach. Then ask them who owns the rights in the French book (as this would be subject to a publishing agreement). The translator of a work owns the copyright in the translation, in this case the English version.
My enterprise organizes an annual essay writing contest. We post the winning entries on our website and distribute a DVD with all entries. Do we need permission to do this?
Yes, copyright in an essay belongs to the author of that essay. This is true even in a contest situation. Your contest entry form could include permission from the author to you for any uses you need to make of the entry.
For winning entries, you may want to go further and obtain permission to use the name of the author, and perhaps their photo.
Should you obtain an assignment of copyright from the author of each entrant or the winning author?
This is a policy decision your organization must make. Think about whether it's really necessary for you to own the copyright or whether specific permissions from the author would suffice. Consider your community and those who may enter the contest and whether they would be willing to assign their copyright to you, or whether it's ethical in the circumstances.
My company writes textbooks. We obtain permissions to use existing copyright-protected materials owned by others in our textbooks. Now we would like to license our content/textbooks to a third party. Do we have the right to do that?
When you license content owned by others, you can ask for permission to relicense that content to third parties. Or if you prefer not to do so (as it may cost you additional money), you may want to inform third parties that they may need to obtain their own permissions/licenses prior to reproducing your content/textbooks.
My organization has purchased a journal article from a document supplier. May I send the article to a third party for translation into another language or does this infringe the "further reproduction, electronic storage or electronic transmission" which was expressly prohibited in the invoice from the document supplier?
Unless you own the copyright in a work, whenever you translate a work or have someone translate it on your behalf, you need permission from the copyright owner of that work. Translation is one of the exclusive rights of a copyright holder. It is an adaptation of a work that requires advance permission.
Do you need permission when a painting or sculpture appears in the background of a photograph of a person?
Some countries have exceptions from copyright law for the incidental inclusion of copyright-protected works in other copyright-protected material. Generally, for the exception to apply, the use must be incidental and not deliberate. For example, the exception may allow a journalist to photograph a person with a painting in the background.
If I find an image on Google Images, can I use it in a book published by a nonprofit organization?
Google is a search engine that helps you locate content such as images, photos and other online content according to your search criteria. It isn't a content depository. The result of a Google image search isn't a collection of public domain or copyright-free works.
Once you find that perfect image or photo, you must treat that image like any other content you find online. Learn more in our article Copyright and Using Google Images.
Is it legal to use someone else's recipe and publish it in a book or blog if you credit the author of the recipe?
A recipe may be protected by copyright if it's more than a mere listing of ingredients; for example, if there are instructions on how to prepare and cook the ingredients. The ideas in the recipe aren't protected, just the words used to express the ideas. So you may not copy the recipe per se (even if you credit the author), but you could create a similar recipe using your own words.
In addition, it may be a matter of ethics and common courtesy to mention the cookbook, website or blog where a recipe originated, or indicate that your recipe is based on, adapted from or inspired by a particular source.
The nonprofit I work for is putting together a workbook and accompanying video. If we include short quotations or summaries (both cited) to help illustrate a point, can we sell the material?
Short portions of a work such as quotations or summaries may be used in some circumstances without obtaining permission. However, this depends on each particular case. You must examine various factors such as what portion you copied (both percent-wise and whether the portion used is the heart of the work), competition with the original work, and more. In some countries, this may be covered by fair use or fair dealing. Whether you sell the material or not is not by itself determinative of whether you require permission.
How do I obtain permission to use a work created by a foreign author?
The permissions procedure for any work of any origin is the same. Determine:
If the work is protected by copyright (for example, is in a fixed form)
If the duration of protection is still ongoing in the country or countries in which you're using the work or the work can be accessed
Whether your use is a copyright use for which permission is required (that is, not subject to fair use [U.S.] or any other provision or exception in the country where the work is being reproduced)
If you need to obtain permission, you must contact the copyright holder or their representative, including a copyright collective, to obtain that permission.
Do I always have to pay for copyright permissions?
It's up to the copyright owner to make this determination. If the copyright owner asks for a fee, you may be able to negotiate a lower fee, or negotiate for specific terms and conditions related to the fee.
I'm creating tutorials for my blog based on a book I purchased. Do I need permission from the author of the book?
No. Permission is required to reproduce part of or the entire book; however, you may use the ideas in the book, explain them to others and base tutorials on the contents of the book without permission.
Copyright Infringement Q&As
My organization's website has several photographs on it. We have a written agreement with the photographer of one of the images, but a second alleged owner of the photograph recently asked us to remove it, with the claim that we didn't have permission to post it. Should we remove the photograph?
You need to determine who in fact is the owner of copyright in the photograph and whether you have permission from this owner. Does your permission/license with the photographer state that that person is in fact the owner of the photograph, that it is an original work, and that the photographer has permission to enter into this agreement? Is the alleged owner who recently contacted you able to prove they own copyright in the photograph? Some investigation should reveal the owner of copyright in the photograph.
Can you go to jail for copyright infringement?
Most countries' copyright statutes provide for some criminal liability for copyright infringement. It is unlikely that there would be criminal liability for photocopying a single article in a library. Criminal liability would be for large-scale piracy and likely willful copying where the user knew or had reason to know that their actions were illegal. Copyright infringement is defined in each country according to the laws in that country.
Will our company's copyright compliance policy exempt us from liability for copyright infringement by our employees?
Although certain legislation or case law may provide some advantages for your copyright policy limiting your organization's liability in specified circumstances, for the most part your policy will not exempt you from liability for your employees' copyright infringement.
However, your copyright policy will help educate staff in your company about copyright and in doing so may lower the occurrences of copyright-protected material being used without permission. It will also assist all employees in consistently applying copyright law in your library or organization.
If I want to do a "Where's Waldo" type of book, using a "Where's __?" (someone else), what copyright issues need I be concerned about?
There is no copyright protection in ideas, so you can create a similar idea to the "Where's Waldo" books. Your content should be original and not copied from anywhere else, unless you have permission to include that content in your book.
I'm an artist and plan to make a pencil drawing of a photo, with 25 percent of the drawing being different from the photo. Is that an infringement of copyright in the photo?
There is no percentage that makes copying legal or illegal. Copying any amount more than a "substantial" amount (which is not clearly defined in the law) requires permission. This is a judgment call in each particular circumstance and may require an analysis of fair use or fair dealing as set out in your country's copyright statute.
Is it an infringement to distort an image (e.g., create an animated GIF out of a static image, or an image on a button that changes color when you hover over it)?
When manipulating images in any manner, you may need the permission from the copyright holder for the right of reproduction and adaptation. You should also be concerned about moral rights (i.e., it may be an infringement of moral rights if you make changes that may harm the reputation of the creator of the work).
Dealing with copyright issues on a regular basis? The Copyright Leadership Certificate program teaches you how to deal with day-to-day copyright issues, including analyzing situations where permission is required and how to obtain that permission.

We make udon noodles from flour together. I will tell you some techniques how to knead the dough and make it chewier. We also make crispy vegetable tempura and soup for udon. You will be amazed by making handmade udon noodles in a local Japanese house.
Hi! I'm Manami. I love cooking and meeting people. My husband is British and a lot of his family members are vegetarian or vegan, so I have been making vegetarian and vegan Japanese cuisine for them for many years and they love it. I know there are only a few vegetarian and vegan options in Japan, but I would like you to enjoy Japanese food culture.


At Freedom Dental we are pleased to be able to offer clients wrinkle reduction treatment with Botulinum Toxin – more commonly known as Botox.
Botulinum is a toxin produced by a bacteria which is then highly purified, refined, diluted and used in therapeutic doses. Botox is administered by injecting it into a specific facial muscle where it acts as a muscle relaxant to stop the muscle from contracting and causing the wrinkles.
We are experts in improving the lines or wrinkles caused by facial expression. These include the frown lines between the eyes, the crow's feet around the eyes and the lines on the forehead.
Who would benefit from the treatment?
Both men and women can benefit from Botox and it can be started from as early as the age of 18 to prevent future lines and wrinkles. Unfortunately if the lines and wrinkles are present at rest, when not activating the muscles, then Botox may not be the right treatment for you. For these lines we can help you with either radiofrequency treatment or filler treatment. You should not have treatment with Botox if you are pregnant, breast feeding, have a known neurological disease or a known hypersensitivity to the toxin.
Usually the treatment will take between 10 and 20 minutes. The effects will begin to appear very quickly within 48 to 72 hours, however the full extent of the treatment may take up to 2 weeks to become visible.
In a small number of cases there may be some localised bruising, swelling or redness at the injection site which disappears very quickly. In very rare cases there can be a temporary drooping of the eyelid but this has never happened at Freedom Dental.
Initially the improvement you see from this treatment will last from 3 to 4 months when we advise that you return for another treatment. With repeated treatments the effects last longer.
Why have Botox at the Dentist?
The dental practice is the safest and most comfortable setting to have Botox treatment. Dentists are experts at giving gentle pain free injections and have advanced knowledge of the facial muscles. Dentists care for and treat many patients on a daily basis so are vastly experienced in making the treatment a pleasant one for you.
If you are interested in having a wrinkle reduction treatment at Freedom Dental then simply call the practice, book and appointment online or fill in an email enquiry form. You will be booked in for a professional facial consultation with Dr Ainsworth who will be able to advise you of the most appropriate treatment for your needs. There will be a small fee for this visit which, if you go ahead with the treatment, will be deducted from the cost of the treatment.
Here are some examples of patients who have been treated with Botox by Dr Ainsworth at Freedom Dental.
If you would like more information or wish to book a consultation then please call 0161 486 6821 . Alternatively you can send us an email or simply fill in the online enquiry form here.

Guilty este cel de-al nouălea album de studio al cântăreței japoneze Ayumi Hamasaki lansat de casa de discuri Avex Trax pe 1 ianuarie 2008 în Japonia (a apărut în magazine încă de pe 26 decembrie 2007). S-a vândut în aproximativ 400.000 de exemplare în primele două săptămâni. Două saptamani dupa lansare, Avex a anunțat că au fost trimise peste 750,000 de exemplare în magazine. Potrivit Oricon, Guilty este cel de-al șaptesprezecelea cel mai bine vândut album japonez al anului 2008 și al șaselea cel mai bine vândut album al unei artiste japoneze. De asemenea, Guilty este al doilea cel mai bine vândut album japonez (primul fiind compilația A Complete: All Singles a lui Hamasaki) al anului 2008 în Taiwan și China.

Informații
Guilty s-a vândut în mai mult de 202.000 de exemplare in prima saptamană de lansare, iar vânzările primelor două săptămâni combinate (432.113) au urcat albumul pe locul II in clasamentul săptămânal Oricon, acesta fiind primul album de studio de-al lui Ayumi care să nu ocupe locul I, înca de la începutul carierei sale. Albumul a debutat în vârful clasamentului și în alte țări asiatice precum China, Hong Kong, Singapore și Taiwan. Dupa opt zile de vânzări, albumul a coborât pe locul trei în clasamentul zilnic japonez.

Albumul a fost lansat în două ediții în Taiwan , CD+DVD și CD. Presa inițială a albumului conținea un album cu poze în ediție limitată. Deși data oficială de lansare era stabilită pe 01 ianuarie 2008, albumul a fost disponibil în magazine cu o săptămână mai devreme. Guilty a debutat pe locul doi în clasamentul G-Music Combo Chart fiind întrecut doar de albumul trupei taivaneze de baieti Fahrenheit dar a ajuns în vârful clasamentului G-Music J-pop Chart cu un procentaj de 39.78% din totalul de vânzări a albumelor japoneze și cu un procentaj de 6.7% din totalul vanzarilor de albume pentru acea săptămână (în Taiwan). Pe 28 Februarie, Guilty a urcat pe locul 1 în topul HMV HK după 56 de zile de când debutase.

Pe 17 martie 2008, saitul oficial al lui Hamasaki a anunțat că Guilty va fi lansat în versiune digitală în peste 26 de țări pe plan mondial, stabilind o premieră pentru un artist japonez. Albumul a fost lansat în America de Nord, Oceania, Europa dar și în Asia. Aceasta este prima lansare pe plan mondial a lui Hamasaki. Anthony Martinez, un cantăreț francez de muzică pop a lansat un cover al melodiei "My all" la o perioadă scurtă după lansarea albumului.

Genul muzical
"Guilty" este considerat a fi cel mai "agresiv" album al lui Hamasaki atât din punct de vedere muzical cât și din punct de vedere al versurilor și a conceptului susținut. Jumătate din melodiile de pe album aparțin genului rock (de la "Mirror" până la "fated" și "Marionette") la care se mai adaugă două balade ("Together When..." și "Untitled: For Her"), două melodii pop dance ("Glitter" și "My All") și trei instrumentale ("Marionette -prelude-" ce servește ca introducere a melodiei "Marionette", "The Judgement Day" și "Rebirth").

The Planet Uranus
Name: Uranus was discovered by the British astronomer William Herschel in 1871. At the time King George III was on the throne in England. The astronomer wanted to name the planet George, in honor of his king. This idea proved unpopular with astronomers from other countries. Instead they decided to call it after the ancient Greek God of the Sky, Ouranos, (Uranus is another spelling of the same name). It is the only planet named after a Greek, rather than a Roman God.
Diameter: 31,764 miles/ 51119.20 Kilometers
Temperature: -350°F; -212°C
Fun Uranus Facts: What's one weird thing about Uranus? It's the only planet to spin on its side! Most planets are like a spinning top when pressed down. That's how they rotate. But imagine tipping that top over and spinning its middle. That's how Uranus rolls!
Uranus is another gas planet. Hydrogen and helium are the main gases. Scientists believe it has an icy-rather than rocky core-made up of water, methane and ammonia.
You have to use a telescope to see Uranus. When you look at it, you'll see it has a blue –green light. Sunlight reflects from Uranus's clouds, which lie beneath a layer of methane gas. This gives Uranus its distinctive color.
And then there's Uranus's funny name. The only planet that makes school children giggle the world over. However-according to NASA-it's actually pronounced YOOR-un-us. At least that's the only way they say it…without blushing!
Uranus also plays a starring role in the eighth book of the Amelia's Amazing Space Adventures series. In book eight, Amelia, the Urano and the Seer of all Time, Amelia and Uglesnoo, her alien friend from Pluto visit Uranus and face their biggest challenge so far. They need to find something that does not exist. Or does it? Uglesnoo struggles to believe. Amelia has many obstacles to overcome before she can get the next item off the list. Curious about the series?

Fun Space Facts for Children: Saturn, the Ringed Planet
October 16, 2015 best books, children, kids, planets, Saturn, solar system, spaceeblanchard2014
The Planet Saturn
Name: Saturn was the father of Jupiter in Roman Mythology. Kronos is the Greek equivalent. Saturn was a God of agriculture and also of time. Saturn the God is often depicted with a sickle over one shoulder, (symbolic of the harvest) and a clock, (symbolic of his role as timekeeper) held in his hand.
Diameter: 74,900 miles/1,20539.87 Kilometers
Fun Saturn Facts: You probably remember seeing Saturn with its famous rings. But do you know what they are made of? Rock, ice and dust, most of which are tiny! How the rings came to be remain a mystery. Some think they should have been a moon, that for some reason failed to form. Others think that a moon existed, but then got broken apart. Maybe someday we'll get an answer.
Saturn is mainly made of gases; hydrogen with a little helium. Scientists think there's a spinning solid core. It's the least dense of any planet, meaning it weighs next to nothing, less than water. If you could find a swimming pool big enough, Saturn would float happily on the surface! Saturn is the root word of one day of our week. Can you guess which one? Yes, it's Saturday!
Saturn is also the star of Amelia's Amazing Space Adventures, my children's space adventure series. Uglesnoo is a cute friendly alien from Pluto. On earth he ends up becoming a present. A present that's not a present! In book seven, Amelia, the Satsuts and the Oblivion Potion, Uglesnoo and Amelia travel to Saturn, as part of their quest. The Satsuts, the aliens that live on Saturn, are friendly, but enemies are here as well. They need to collect the item from the list to save Uglesnoo's sister. Disaster hits when Amelia tastes something forbidden. Is there any hope left for the quest?

Fun Space Facts for Children: Jupiter, the Gas Giant
October 8, 2015 amelia's amazing space adventures, children, Jupiter, planetschildren's books, educational, planetseblanchard2014
The Planet Jupiter: Can you take the Red Eye there?
Name: Jupiter is named after the mighty Roman ruler of all the Gods. Zeus is the Greek equivalent. It turned out to be a great name, as Jupiter is the biggest planet of them all!
Diameter: 88,444 miles; 142336.82 kilometers
Fun Jupiter Facts: Have you heard of a, 'Red Eye? It's used to describe a plane flight that takes off after 9pm. It's also an expression associated with Jupiter which has its' own red eye. Jupiter's eye is 25,000 miles long! And even though it may look like an eye, it's actually a storm. And an epic storm at that, it's been continuing for over 150 years! But we can't yet visit Jupiter on a red eye to view its' red eye. The technology is beyond us at the moment. But you can see it in the photograph above. Does it remind you of Sauron in Lord of the Rings? A huge creepy eye, watching over us all?
Scientists believe that Jupiter has a rocky core, but most of this planet is made up of gas. Layers and layers of gas. Most of it is hydrogen, then a much smaller amount of helium and a little bit of ammonia, sulfur, methane and water vapor.
Jupiter has the most moons of any planet. There are sixty three and scientists are still counting. Europa is one of its many moons and is very intriguing, because it has water. Where there is water, there might also be signs of alien life.
Jupiter also plays a starring role in the sixth book of the Amelia's Amazing Space Adventures series. In book six, Amelia, the Jubs and the Case for Peace, Amelia and Uglesnoo travel to Jupiter where they must collect ten Blazebolts. But Jupiter's aliens – the Jubs – are at war! Uglesnoo's spaceship takes a hit. They need to make an emergency landing on Jupiter for repairs. After landing, an old enemy makes an appearance… Curious about the series?

Fun Space Facts for Children: Mars, the Red Planet
September 22, 2015 best books, children, kids, Mars, planets, solar system, spaceeblanchard2014
The Planet Mars: Did Martians ever invade Earth?
Name: Mars is named after the Roman God of war, after its red color, which reminded the ancient Romans of blood!
Diameter: 4,222 miles
Temperature: -81°F; -62.77°C.
Fun Mars Facts: Did Martians ever invade Earth? On Sunday October 30, 1938, the United States went into mass hysteria, when the radio announced to its' million listeners that a Martian invasion of our Earth was underway. People were terrified. They fled en masse in their cars, jamming the highways, fleeing the vengeful Martians. Until…Mr. Orson Welles, a director, came on air to tell people that they were actually listening to a play! This play was adapted from H.G. Welles famous novel, 'War of the Worlds,' a great read to this day. This fictional work describes Martians landing on Earth and destroying our planet!
On July 4, 1997, Nasa successfully landed a little robot named Sojourner from its NASA pathfinder spacecraft. The amazing Sojourner roamed around the planet Mars-the first robot to do so-beaming back amazing pictures of Mars and taking numerous samples. This helps scientists learn more about how Mars was formed.
Mars has two Moons. They are named Phobos, (meaning panic/fear) and Deimos, (meaning terror/dread). These are two characters that according to Greek mythology accompany their father, the God of war, into battle.
Mons Olympus, a now extinct Volcano on Mars, is the tallest volcano in the entire solar system!
Mars also plays a starring role in the fifth book of the Amelia's Amazing Space Adventures series. In book five, Amelia, the Magolytes and the Victory Vines, Amelia and Uglesnoo need to trade with the tricky Magolytes, aliens that live on Mars. But the Magolytes possess a deadly weapon. Amelia and Uglesnoo find themselves running away… But then they are helped by the mysterious victory vines. Ready to blast off from Mars, they still face one big fiery problem. Will they manage to outwit the sly Magolytes? Curious about the series?

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services late today issued its proposed rule for the physician fee schedule for calendar year 2016. CMS proposes a payment increase of 0.5%, as required by the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015. CMS also proposes to pay for advanced care planning services, which include explanation and discussion of advance directives by a physician or other qualified health professional, and requests comment on certain provisions of the Merit-based Incentive Payment System to be implemented in 2019 under MACRA. Other provisions in the proposed rule include a proposal to expand required reporting of the Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems survey to group practices of 25 or more eligible professionals; the use of star ratings on Physician Compare; and the proposed application of the value-based payment modifier to groups consisting of only non-physician EPs, such as physician assistants. The proposed rule will be published in the July 15 Federal Register, and comments are due Sept. 8. AHA members will receive a Special Bulletin with further details tomorrow.


Our main bedroom was one of the last bedrooms to be decorated when we moved into our house in 2012. Despite an impending arrival, we took our time over our bedroom as we knew we wanted to get things we really wanted rather making do with what we had. The room is a really odd L-shape, as the corner of it has been taken off to make a bathroom. So it was always going to be a tricky one to make use of the space. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures of the decor when we moved in – well, I think I do somewhere, but I can't find it anywhere. Just picture bright, bright pink and turquoise; horizontal stripes on one wall and an eye-watering floral print on the other. It was a feat in itself just to strip the walls!
A finished room! Even over five years later, I can remember how pleased I was when this room was finally finished. We bought the fire off eBay and drove to Wrexham to pick it up. The man was selling another red one as well, and I still regret not buying it to put into the spare bedroom.
And now… I feel like I should give it a bit of a ta-dah! Let me just preface this with some words: I am an untidy person. On any given day, the bedroom is usually filled with my clothes and eBay boxes. But this weekend, I finally cleared it up, cleaned it up and took some pictures to prove how lovely it can look.
We painted the walls a combination of grey and lime green. The bed, we decided to splurge a bit (for us) and bought an Ercol bed from John Lewis. The exact version we have is no longer available on the JL website, but they do have a similar style in both double and king size. The bedding is Orla Kiely via TK Maxx but I think everything else in the room is secondhand. Oh actually, Aidan's bedside table is from Habitat. We used to have a really good Habitat clearance shop nearish to us. A few of our favourite pieces of furniture have come from there over the years.
Aidan made me the Duplo heart at Valentine's a couple of years ago. It's not moved since, apart from when one of the kids decides to change it slightly. The kissing couple came from Germany. I can't remember where the mirror came from, but it's a G-plan style one from the 60s. The original plan was to cover the whole wall with all different shaped versions of these mirrors, but that never happened. I quite like our wonky mirror though.
I'm afraid a bit of detritus still crept in… Usually this set of drawers is completely covered with junk so I'm doing my best to keep it relatively clear. My pile of stuff to sell is just visible to the right still. I'm sorry, it has to go somewhere!
More retro things! The egg chair should have had its own post by now: that was a Christmas present from Aidan years ago. I always intended to use it for breastfeeding in, but it's impossible to get out of quietly or while holding a baby! So it's a lovely decorative feature and not-so-occasional dumping ground for my clothes. The wardrobe is a G-plan one. We deliberated about one on eBay for ages. It was £150 and we couldn't decide if it was amazing, really worth it or not… blah, blah, blah. Then we found one in a local charity shop for £20. Twenty pounds! The door doesn't close, but I can live with that for twenty quid! The giant lamp also came from Germany. Aidan actually cleaned it properly last week and it looks amazing.
My bedside table wasn't deliberately chosen to go in here. It was meant to be in Corliss' room, but it's too big. Now I've been using it for so long, I'd need something of a similar size to replace it so I might just eventually paint this one.
I've always got a random assortment of books on the go. At the moment, I've got lots of Science Fiction, Stephen King, the two Lifestyle Illustrations books and one about language development in the Amazon jungle. Just to mix it up somewhat.
