Egypt Finally Legalizes Vaping Products – Vaping…
The local vape ban has resulted in a myriad of illegal vape shops across the country that sell the product and its accessories, often smuggled into the country.
Egypt has very high smoking rates and adult smokers have been gradually switching from smoking to vaping, as a way to quit or reduce harm. The country is also known for having a major problem with counterfeit products in general, and the e-cigarette market is no different.
The sales, distribution, and importation of e-cigarettes had been banned locally since 2015, when the Ministry of Health issued a harsh measure in accordance with a 2011 decision taken by the Specialized Technical Committee of Drugs.
This ban has resulted in a myriad of illegal vape shops across the country that sell the product and its accessories, often smuggled into the country. Last year, the Industry Committee of the House of Representatives in Egypt adopted a new legislation against fake branding and products, whether local or global, imposing severe punishments on producers.
The Middle East is warming up to tobacco harm reduction
Meanwhile with the lifting of this ban, Egypt joins other Arabic markets including neighboring Saudi, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates, in endorsing the products. "The lifting of the ban highlights the Egyptian authorities' progressive approach to e-cigarettes and sets the stage for the creation of a regulated market rich with business opportunities, through serving the demand for easily accessible, quality products by legal age (adult) consumers across the country," wrote RELX International, a leading player in the segment, in a statement dated April 24.
"The decision by Egyptian authorities reflects its commitment to support legal businesses in the country while cracking down on the illicit trade of those products, in line with what we are seeing in an increasing number of markets around the globe," said Robert Naouss, REXL International's external affairs director for the Middle East, Northern Africa and Europe.

Dad was a big bathroom guy.
You know, with the outdoorsy magazines, the seed catalogs, paperback Westerns—all stacked beside the toilet.
The "smallest room in the house" was multifunctional—reading nook, meditation space, and day-planning war room.
Dad once told me a story about his days as a greenhorn architect. After designing a bowling alley (which just paid for baby brother's post-maternity hospital bill), Dad was sent to the Lone Star State to work on some oil tycoon's project.
I veer into the scatological not to demean the memory of my father, but to evoke the physical presence of the man.
He loved his mornings: his pipe with Borkum Riff Amphora Blend, a cup of strong black coffee, the radio spilling out hog reports and top-of-the-hour news from WCCO-AM, the morning Minneapolis Tribune, and his University project plans that got neatly tucked into his briefcase.
The bathroom attached to his den worked in synchronicity with his work desk—after coming to grips with the day ahead, it was time to hit the "thunder mug," shower, shave, and slap on some Old Spice.
That's how I remember him from that time: bitter black coffee, pipe tobacco, and stinky cologne.
He always kept a wall calendar loaded with appointments—then he'd X-off the day when it was done.
He came straight home from work, pulled himself away from the dinner table, and took off in the boat, not returning until well after sunset.
My brother and I would sit at the top of the stairs, watching as the white stern light and red and green bow lights sliced through the dark water toward our dock. Brian would run down to bring in the line and tether the boat.
"What'd ya catch, Dad?" he'd shout.
After Dad passed away, Brian inherited all his fishing gear, and I'm glad for that. It just made sense.
Dad bought me all the Yale Shakespeare I currently own. He knew I loved books more than fishing.
I've often thought about that afternoon he died.
He was sitting in his favorite chair in his Florida den, the connecting creek to the Intracoastal Waterway not more than 100 yards away.
I'm certain he had his morning routine, read in the bathroom, prayed about how much he missed Mom, and then went to church, as it was a Sunday.
He lunched with the pastor and a visitor from out of town, and then probably came home to nap, waking in time to call his sister Joyce in Indiana.
His next call would've been probably to Brian or me. We always talked on Sunday afternoons, even before Mom died.
At around 2:15 p.m. on Sept. 7, 2008, he passed away in that chair.
When Brian and I entered the house, upon arriving from Tampa a day or two later, we found their Cocker Spaniel, Sidney, cowering in his dog bed in the kitchen, the living room TV blaring (a neighbor had turned it on to keep the dog company), and everything in Dad's den left just as it was the moment the EMTs pulled his body from the chair.
On the credenza, clipped to a wall calendar, were two photos: one of me at seven, the other of my girlfriend and I attending a fundraiser from earlier that summer of 2008.
On the calendar he had X'ed out the days as he always did … except for one thing.
Two or three days before that Sunday, he started making the X's into crosses—clear, definitive symbols of Christ's crucifixion.
I do not know why he did that.
And it still baffles me.

Q: C++ IPv6 string representation into boost::multiprecision::uint128_t I need to convert IPv6 string address into boost::multiprecision::uint128_t
For IPv4 I used the following algorithm:
uint32_t byte1 = 0, byte2 = 0, byte3 = 0, byte4 = 0;
sscanf(ipAddress, "%3d.%3d.%3d.%3d", &byte1, &byte2, &byte3, &byte4);
uint32_t ip = (byte1 << 24) | (byte2 << 16) | (byte3 << 8) | (byte4);

How can I do like this for IPv6?

A: Using the example from Wikipedia:

Also using Boost Asio's address_v6 implementation instead of a 1970-era parsing:
Live On Coliru
#include <boost/asio/ip/address_v6.hpp>
#include <boost/multiprecision/cpp_int.hpp>
#include <cstdio>

using boost::asio::ip::address_v6;
using boost::multiprecision::int128_t;

int main() {
    auto v6 = address_v6::from_string("2001:0DBB:AC10:FE01::");

    int128_t val {};
    for (uint8_t b : v6.to_bytes())
        (val <<= 8) |= b;

    std::cout << std::hex << std::showbase << val << std::endl;
}

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have returned to Windsor for the first time since their wedding as they attended a posh polo bash.
The Sun reports that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex looked relaxed and happy as they soaked up the sun at the charity event to raise money for children in Africa.
Meghan, 36, wore a black dress by Carolina Herrera teamed with nude heels at today's Sentebale Polo Club in Berkshire.

Meanwhile, Prince Harry, 33, adopted a relaxed look with jeans, a white shirt and light grey jacket.
The Duke was set to take the field to support his charity Sentebale, to raise money for children in Africa living with HIV and AIDS.
The Prince will play on the Sentebale St Regis team, captained by his friend Nacho Figueras, against the Royal Salute Team.

Where the Rock Meets the Sea: Grand Solmar, Cabo San Lucas
Sophie Azouaou - Cabo San Lucas
Set along the private white-sand beaches of Playa Solmar at the very southernmost tip of the Baja California peninsula, Grand Solmar Land's End Resort and Spa is setting a new standard of luxury in Cabo San Lucas.
From the moment we arrived at the beautiful compound, it was obvious that this was not an ordinary resort. The way the receptionist, bellhops, and staff kept smiling at us and welcoming us in the gentlest way was heartwarming.
We were given a royal welcome, presented with a beautiful assortment of organic white chocolates and cookies courtesy of new rising-star chef Hector Lucas, and taken to the ninth floor to our stunning three-bedroom penthouse overlooking the ocean. The interior mirrored the beauty of the outside. The color palette and finishes adorning the rooms were a feast for the eyes.
Lying ahead of us was the wide expanse of the Pacific Ocean with nothing obstructing the view. Other than the sound of the sloshing waves hitting the beach, there was absolute silence and serenity.
We got settled in our rooms and headed downstairs, excited to see the rest of Grand Solmar.
Our tour of this exciting new property left us speechless. The impossible location where the rock meets the sea – no man's land – is a place we could never tire of.
Every detail was well thought of, from the intricate designs in the walkways and stone entries to the wood décor in the lobby with a window-to-the-sea archway, to the elegant simplicity of the rooms. The infinity pools contouring the resort have raised the bar for luxury.
In an environment like this, a spa is an essential part of the blissful experience.
At Grand Solmar, the spa blends perfectly with the surrounding elements and is an experience not to be missed. We enjoyed a Kanshi (aromatic) foot and hand treatment at one of the seaside cabanas, and felt re-energized, and invigorated.
Grand Solmar has the only Thalassotherapy center in Cabo San Lucas. The spa offers baths using seawater from the Sea of Cortez and seaweed-based treatments for preventative and curative purposes. They develop an individualized regimen to meet the needs of each guest.
One of their signature treatments is the Repechage Sea Escape – a stone facial and body therapy designed to melt stress away. The Sea of Cortez Pure Body Revival is another favorite among guests. It provides immediate rehydration using a hot-oil therapy with hot stone relaxing massage followed by a cooling facial.
The resort's La Roca Restaurant is run by chef Hector Lucas and features Mediterranean Baja style cuisine with an exotic flair. Drink maestro Eduardo Gonzalez Robles concocts the finest organic drinks, including the Grand Solmar Vida Verde (Green Life).
Chef Hector tours Cabo's markets and gets exceptional ingredients such as organic vegetables, artisanal cheeses, native natural beef, and sustainable fish.
On our final evening, under Chef Lucas' sweet smile and thoughtfully prepared dishes, we tasted some of his organic specialties, such as a refreshing cucumber gazpacho, an exotic octopus hors d'oeuvres, and citrusy cactus and lobster salads. He also surprised us with a superb leche sorbet.
Lucas agreed to share the recipe for one of his summer favorites: the Grand Solmar lobster salad.
With breathtaking views, a Thalassotherapy therapy center, one-of-a-kind green amenities, exotic gourmet dining, thoughtfulness, and personalized service that caters to every whim, Grand Solmar is a rock-solid green pioneer by the sea.
General manager Jean Louis Magron, whose mentor is the renowned Jean Berthelot, is the passionate force behind Grand Solmar and brings unparalleled experience and management skills to the resort. He's a Cornell University Graduate who also attended the School of Gastronomy in St. Moritz and School of Hotel Management in Zurich, Switzerland, where he learned it all.
We sat with Magron for an interview:
Q: What should we expect when coming to the Grand Solmar? Can you describe the room amenities?
A: Phase one of the resort includes 119 suites with six different types of suites, from studios to four-bedroom penthouses. All suites offer unique amenities such as fully equipped kitchens with state-of-the-art appliances, in-villa dining and spa experiences, private terraces, flat-screen TVs, and luxurious bathrooms with steam showers. We provide daily maid service and nightly turn-down service.
Q: What sets the Grand Solmar apart?
A: Guests will be able to experience Playa Grande's premiere Thalassotherapy center and Grand Solmar's beachside cabana spa. They will also enjoy a selection of two restaurants and three bars, four infinity-edge heated pools, many sea activities, including fishing, and breathtaking sunsets. With our own fleet of customized boats, Solmar Hotels and Resorts offers guests access to the largest sport-fishing fleet in Cabo San Lucas.
Q: Do you consider yourself a green resort?
A: Yes we do, and are aiming to be a pioneer in the Greener Cabo (movement). Our chef uses organic and natural products. We produce our own sweet water and pump the water from the sea, and are very careful with our water usage. As an energy saver, guests have to use smart key cards that automatically turn on the lights. In order to prevent energy loss, we have installed a unique air conditioning system in all the rooms that automatically shuts off when windows open. The attractive landscaping requires half the irrigation levels typically used by similar resorts. All the linens in the rooms are organic, and housekeeping uses environmentally safe cleaning products. We also recycle and compost.
Q: What is the best way for people in the San Francisco Bay area to contact you?
A: If I may suggest going to our site and booking directly.
Q: What do you want the world to know?
A: We are going back to our roots. We respect Mother Nature and are thankful for all the resources we have and wish to preserve them.

Capella Pedregal, Cabo San Lucas – A True Lifestyle Experience


Being a highly recommended guesthouse in Siem Reap, we decided to stay at Bou Savy Guesthouse. It is a 10-minute drive from the the Siem Reap International Airport.
Bou Savy Guesthouse is located at a quiet neighborhood just a mere walking distance from the main highway.
We were welcomed by the manager (or is he the manager?) and were ushered at the receiving area.
We sipped on our cold Guyabano shake while our rooms were being prepared.
When our rooms were ready, the staff brought our bags and took them all the way to the 3rd floor where our rooms are located.
After our not-so-good experience at the guesthouse we've stayed at in Kuala Lumpur, we breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing our comfortable rooms.
We got 2-triple rooms. Each has 3 single beds, a mini dresser, aircon, fan, a CRT tv with 60+ cable channels, and a mini ref. They also provided us with towels and complimentary bottled water. The guesthouse has free WIFI but the coverage is only up to the lobby area downstairs.
The bathroom is spacious enough and complete with basic toiletries and hot shower.
Our stay included a free breakfast and a free dinner. However, since we're watching the Apsara Show that night which already includes a buffet dinner, we requested to have a free lunch instead.
Bou Savy also offers tours and travel arrangements. They were the ones who bought our bus tickets to Phnom Penh without any additional charge.
hi.. im going to vietnam and cambodia..would you mind sharing your IT?
balik na tayo dyan pakner nakakamiss!
ang sarap magsiesta eh. aircon+ceilingfan+freshair.
just one q.. did you give tip your tuk tuk drivers? per day or just after everything?
We gave tips to the tour guides after the tour. As for the tuk tuk drivers, since they were staff of the hotel, we only gave them tips once. Not every time we go out.
But we invited them for beer during our last night.


New York, August 25, 2011--Charges against prominent Omani journalist and filmmaker Youssef al-Haj should be dropped immediately, the Committee to Protect Journalists said today. Al-Haj's trial over an article he wrote that allegedly accused the Ministry of Justice of corruption began on August 14 but was postponed until this Sunday. At the August 14 hearing, the judge ordered that the newspaper that published al-Haj's story, Al-Zaman, not print any details of the case, local human rights activists told CPJ.
Al-Haj and Al-Zaman Editor-in-Chief Ibrahim Ma'mari briefly appeared in court. Ma'amari is only being charged for employing al-Haj without a permit. After the defense spoke, the prosecutor reiterated a request to shut down the newspaper and also requested that Al-Zaman be denied from publishing any articles with details of the case, local human rights activists reported. The judge tabled the request to shut down the newspaper.
"We call on the Omani authorities to drop all charges against Youssef al-Haj and allow Al-Zaman to publish freely," said Robert Mahoney, CPJ's deputy director. "This prosecution represents a serious deterioration of press freedom in Oman and raises concern about the ability of critical journalists to do their work."
Al-Haj is being investigated for an article he wrote in Al-Zaman alleging that the justice minister and his deputy refused to grant a salary and grade increase to Haroun al-Mukeebli, a longtime civil servant, local and human rights activists reported. He was charged with "insulting the minister of justice and his deputy," "attempting to create a division in society," "abusing the judiciary in Oman, "violating the publications and publishing law," and "practicing a profession without a permit from the Ministry of Information," according to CPJ's review of documents from Omani authorities. Al-Haj has been banned from writing since July 8.


HEY LADY. – Hello? I Forgot My Mantra.
Published on September 4, 2014 September 4, 2014 by i forgot my mantra.
Once, when I was an intern at the Today Show (many, many moons ago), I was seated by the door of the Green Room when Joan Rivers poked her head in, looked down at me, as I looked up, and said "Hey Lady," before turning and leaving. It's a phrase I now use ALL THE TIME.
Anyway, I've always kind of liked Joan–she was coarse, yes, but a hard-worker. She had ups and downs but she kept going. And she was funny. Below, I've copied some highlights from an old New York Magazine profile of Joan Rivers.
–The Joan Rivers diet: You can eat anything you want before 3 p.m. and then nothing for the rest of the day.
–At Sundance, Rivers wears a slight variation of the same all-black outfit every day. Today: Donna Karan sweater, Chanel slacks, Manolo boots, full-length sable fur, huge sunglasses.
Categories Joan will be missed.

Kenco Celebrates 68th Anniversary with Historical Growth and Strategic Innovation
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn.—August 13, 2018— Kenco Logistics, North America's leading third-party logistics provider, announced today the addition of two strategic hires, historic company growth and a year's worth of accomplishments. On the cusp of its 68th anniversary and under the direction of CEO and President Denis Reilly, Kenco is initiating a new era driven by innovation.
"Kenco has grown tremendously in the last year, specifically in the areas of transportation and material handling, providing both old and new clientele with integrated and complex solutions," said Denis Reilly, CEO, and president of Kenco Logistics. "Our recent hires and latest accomplishments, particularly those from Kenco Innovation Labs, are leading us into a forward-thinking and innovative future, driving new partnerships and continuing our strong record of client retention."
Strategic Hires
Kenco's Supply Chain Solutions team recently added two exceptional leaders – Rajiv Saxena, sr. vice president of Supply Chain Solutions, and Chris Hess, director of Supply Chain Solutions. Each has an extensive background in developing global supply chain strategies, solutions, and designs.
For the past 14 years, Rajiv Saxena served in the role of global head of supply chain solutions for APL Logistics. Before APL, he was the director of supply chain strategy with Menlo Logistics and worked with Ceva Logistics in a senior level information technology role.
Chris Hess previously worked for Tesla Motors where he led the design and implementation of the material flow systems from supplier to the assembly line. Prior to that, he led a worldwide design and innovation team at Amazon developing fulfillment and transportation solutions.
"With over 50 years of logistics experience between them, Rajiv and Chris bring expert knowledge in supply chain solution design and automation," said Reilly. "Their work in conceptualizing, modeling and implementing creative and innovative solutions to complex supply chain problems will position Kenco at the forefront of the 3PL market."
New and Existing Partnership Growth
In the last year, Kenco has added over $70 million in sales, largely due to new partnerships. Working with newly acquired customers has allowed the company to expand its national presence and operate more complex and increasingly efficient operations. Kenco's newest customers include Bridgestone, Caterpillar, Corning, Exxon, Focal Point, P&G, Samsung, and Shell. Each of these partnerships has driven the development of original, design-oriented solutions, promoting and ensuring a successful future for these clients.
Kenco is proud to offer a diverse range of logistics services which include transportation and material handling equipment solutions. Their continued growth in these areas has allowed the company to maintain and expand their relationships with existing customers including Carrier, Honeywell, Valeant, and Whirlpool.
Innovation and Accomplishments
Founded in 2015, Kenco Innovation Labs features a dedicated research and development team, a crowdsourced approach to creativity and ideation, and a lean business model that enables rapid prototyping and deployment with real results. Today, Kenco invests heavily in engineering, research, and development of new ideas and technologies. With Kenco as one of the first and few 3PLs to have a fully dedicated innovation group, the success of the Innovation Labs has been marked by several accomplishments, including:
Identifying more than $25 million in cost savings for Kenco customers.
Developing the LoadProof app, which works to eliminate chargebacks via image capturing in the warehouse. One customer saw a 95 percent decrease in customer complaints and an estimated $100,000 in cost savings.
Joining the Blockchain in Transport Alliance (BiTA), a forum created for the development of blockchain standards and education. By joining, Kenco is helping to develop industry-wide standards that will accelerate and regulate the revolutionary technology's implementation. Kenco also serves on two of the technical standards committee workgroups dedicated to interoperability and data formats for Blockchain.
Validating its position as an industry leader in the supply chain, Kenco has already been recognized by key industry publications this year. Notable acknowledgments include:
Inbound Logistics Top 10 3PL Provider
Multichannel Merchant Top 3PL
Food Logistics Top Green Provider
These, among Kenco's many other recent accomplishments, act as a testament to the company's continued dedication to providing top-tier service to its customers and to the industry at large.

Man Booker longlist captures a world on the brink
London, July 24 (IANS) From a staggering 171 submissions — the highest number of titles put forward in the Man Booker Prize's 50 year history — 13 novels, which capture facets of a world on the brink, have been longlisted for the 2018 edition of the much-coveted 50,000 pound literary award.
"Perhaps unsurprisingly, given the times, there were many dystopian fictions on our bookshelf – and many novels we found inspirational as well as disturbing. Some of those we have chosen for this longlist feel urgent and topical, others might have been admired and enjoyed in any year," Kwame Anthony Appiah, Chair of the 2018 judges, said in a statement.
The British-born Ghanaian-American philosopher, cultural theorist, and novelist said that all of the longlisted books – which take in slavery, ecology, missing persons, inner-city violence, young love, prisons, trauma, race – capture something about a world on the brink.
The longlist features a graphic novel, Nick Drnaso's "Sabrina", for the first time, besides four debut novelists and four authors under the age of 30. The longlist consists of six writers from the UK, three from the US, two from Ireland and two from Canada.
This year's Golden Man Booker winner Michael Ondaatje — a special one-off award that crowned the best work of fiction from the last five decades of the prize — has once again made it to the list with his seventh novel "Warlight". Ondaatje's "The English Patient" shared the 1992 Booker Prize with "Sacred Hunger" by Barry Unsworth.
He is joined by three other authors previously nominated for the prize: Esi Edugyan (shortlisted in 2011 for "Half-Blood Blues"), Donal Ryan (longlisted in 2013 for "The Spinning Heart"), and Richard Powers (longlisted in 2014 for "Orfeo").
The four debutants recognised by the judges this year include eminent Scottish poet Robin Robertson's "The Long Take", a novel in verse; Sophie Mackintosh's "The Water Cure"; Guy Gunaratne's "In Our Mad And Furious City" and Daisy Johnson's "Everything Under".
"Among their many remarkable qualities is a willingness to take risks with form. And we were struck, overall, by their disruptive power: these novels disrupted the way we thought about things we knew about, and made us think about things we didn't know about.
"Still, despite what they have in common, every one of these books is wildly distinctive. It's been an exhilarating journey so far and we're looking forward to reading them again. But now we'll have thousands and thousands of people reading along with us," Appiah added.
Johnson, aged 27, is the joint youngest author on the list, alongside Sally Rooney (for "Normal People").
The shortlist of six books will be announced on September 20. The winner will be revealed on October 16.
As usual, the winner of the 2018 Man Booker Prize can expect international recognition.
In the week following the 2017 winner announcement, sales of "Lincoln in the Bardo" by George Saunders increased by 1,227 per cent.
Bloomsbury has till date sold over 230,000 copies of Lincoln across all formats — 70 per cent of those sales coming after the win.

The Resourceful Traveler: Reviews Of New Travel Books | The Wichita Eagle
The Resourceful Traveler: Reviews Of New Travel Books
By June Sawyers
"1,000 Ultimate Experiences" Lonely Planet, $22.99
The world is full of experiences, ultimate and otherwise; assembling all of these into one book is hard. Fortunately, Lonely Planet is up to the challenge. The editors have scoured places to go and things to do in every corner of the globe in preparing this entertaining volume. They include the world's happiest places, which range from Montreal to the town of Happy in Texas, but also countries wildly different from each other such as Colombia and Denmark (the latter is the world's happiest country, according to happiness studies). From happiness to quirkiness, they also include the most eccentric places to stay. That would mean lodgings that range from a Bedouin tent (in Jordan) or at the Hydropolis in the United Arab Emirates, the world's first underwater hotel. Quite often a place is associated with a specific dish.
Hence, the editors suggest enjoying tapas in Barcelona, Spain, pasta in Naples, Italy, curry in Mumbai, India, and even the humble hot dog in New York. For the best places to experience music, they recommend the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville or a night out at a decadent cabaret in Berlin. Meanwhile, art pilgrimages include the expected — following in the footsteps of Monet and Van Gogh in France or Frida Kahlo in Mexico City — but also admiring the dramatic mosaics and marble of Moscow's subway system.

Kids' media company secures funding from industry figures
Investors include CBS CEO Les Moonves and Robert Downey Jr
Pocketwatch, a new startup that creates, acquires, distributes and curates content for kids age 2-11 and presents it across a variety of platforms, has secured funding from the likes of CBS CEO Les Moonves and Robert Downey Jr.
The company has secured $6 million in funding ahead of its expected launch this summer.
Other investors include producer Jon Landau, United Talent Agency and Chris Jacquemin, partner and head of digital media at WME.
Pocketwatch intends to use the money to build media channels on platforms including YouTube, develop new premium franchises, and lure in popular YouTube creatives. The company is promising to grant a "significant" amount of equity to creators that sign on.
The company is led by Chris Williams as CEO, Albie Hecht, chief content officer, and Jon Moonves, chief strategy officer.
"Pocketwatch's mission is to create the ultimate headquarters for kids in a vast entertainment universe, that will celebrate all the stuff kids love," said Williams.
"Having spent five out of the last ten years at Disney, I've seen first-hand how challenging it can be for traditional kids media companies to embrace new business models. By bringing together a team of visionaries responsible for developing and producing some of the most beloved kids franchises in history and combining them with digital natives, creators and experts known for creating short-form videos consumed by millions of kids, Pocketwatch is creating a new blueprint for a multi-platform entertainment company."

The Work of International Law
Harvard International Law Journal, Volume 58, Number 1, Winter 2017
U of Michigan Public Law Research Paper No. 534
47 Pages Posted: 13 Feb 2017 Last revised: 16 Aug 2017

This Article crystallizes and then critiques a prominent view about the role of international law in the global order. The view — what I call the "cooperation thesis" — is that international law serves to help global actors cooperate, specifically by: (1) curbing their disputes, and (2) promoting their shared goals. The cooperation thesis often appears as a positive account of international law; it purports to explain or describe what international law does. But it also has normative force; international law is widely depicted as dysfunctional when it does not satisfy the thesis. In particular, heated or intractable conflict is thought to betray the limits of international law — to show that, on some issues, international law is not serving its functions. That view of international law is conceptually flawed. It incorrectly assumes that conflict is an impediment to international law or a problem for international law to mitigate. As scholars from other disciplines have shown, however, conflict is symbiotic with the very functions that the thesis prizes. Even as international law enables global actors to curb their disputes and work toward their shared aims, it also enables them to do the opposite: to hone in on their differences and disagree — at times fiercely and without resolution. It does so because the two kinds of interactions are interdependent, and the legal mechanisms for both are the same. To put the point more starkly, conflict does not necessarily reveal deficiencies in international law because enabling it is inherent in the project of international law.

Q: How do I read this proportion? Geneticists say that the color of Italian squash should follow the $12:3:1$ ratio. A group of researchers collects the following information: White 155, yellow 40 and green 10. Are these data consistent with the hypothesis of the geneticists?
I have to perform a chi-square test, but I need the expected frequencies which are obtained with the following formula
$e_i=nπ_i  $ where $n$ is the sample size and $π_i$ is the assumed proportions
What I don't understand is how to occupy $12:3:1$, is 12% or $\frac{2}{3}$ or $\frac{\frac{2}{3}}{1}$ ?

A: The total number of observations is $n = 155 + 40 + 10 = 205$.  The theoretical or hypothesized proportions are $\pi_1 = 12/16$ white, $\pi_2 = 3/16$ yellow, and $\pi_3 = 1/16$ green; hence the expected frequency of white is $205(12/16) = 153.75$, and so forth.


In photography I have memory for terms that I believe have been lost with the democratization of photography in the digital age.
As an example in the realm of magazine photography who would know what a gutter is? That is the vertical line between the pages of a magazine. When I was assigned (and here is another term) to shoot a two-page-spread it was crucial to know how the gutter would affect my horizontally shot photograph. A full-page bleed is a term that means that the photograph (either on one page as a vertical or in two pages as a horizontal) goes all the way to all the edges.
I was known for using studio lights and for planning my photographs. I was known to use a stylist. In one of the iterations of Saturday Night Magazine I was expressly asked not to use lights or a stylist. I obeyed on the first instruction and the light was the light of a light bulb in a bathroom. But I took a stylist under the recommendation of my wise Rosemary. I was specifically asked to be a fly-on-the-wall. My subject was Gillian Guess.
Because there is less opportunity now to shoot in a studio most photographers of this digital age like to shoot what they see on the street. It has been called street photography and it is still called that. For me after seeing 50 or 100 projected street shots in some sort of photographic evening my interest wanes.
But, every once in a while, I see something that is indeed interesting to my eyes. I call it what it used to be called and that is a grab shot. An example of that is the picture on the top of this blog which I shot at the Met last week.
Another term that is perhaps now forgotten is the charm of the snapshot. In Spanish this translates to a far more interesting word instantánea. Several times I was asked to shoot portraits with the look of a snapshot. The idea was to make them almost seem as if they were snapshots.
And of course the problem (as I see it) with snapshots, grab shots and the like is that the photographer has extreme difficulty in imposing a personal style. For me that is the shame and the tragedy of photograph right now.
A personal style in photography has to be the Holy Grail. These days not even Sir Galahad would have a chance of finding it.
A small excuse for the quality of the two-page spread reproduced here is that my scanner is smaller than the two pages of a magazine. So I snapped (a snap shot) with my Fuji X-E3 in my office.

from the series: Private Magic
PRIVATE MAGICS.
From the collection of OPERA OMNIA.
The magicality of everyday reality is shocking as it is. My behaviour often results from some overwhelming urge whose principle I am unable to grasp. The unknown of what awaits me makes me look for someone I can lean on within myself and within those who are closest to me. In the time between dreaming and waking I can often feel the energy of those people.
Art plays an important part in the scheme of things here as a language of communication, of the initiation into the world, our knowledge of which can never be complete.
Rubik's cube, Rainbow, Chanukkah candleholder, Shisha or the moslem water-pipe, a doll with voodoo pins stuck in it or me, changing into a raven, are all elements of a world which bewitches and mystifies me. This is what I want to show to my niece as the legacy of the hipersensitivity of women's gender.
The rainbow has always fascinated me. Both as a symbol of Jehova's and Noe's reconciliation or as the result of the dispersion of white light into basic colours in droplets of water. I would like to stand inside a rainbow and using the language of semaphore signals, which is proof to electronic distortions, tell people that there is meaning to life, that we exist. And even after death our energetic faculties shall not be forgotten. Because life is an unerasable fact. For centuries.

triptych Transfiguration of Odin
Mythical and Magical World of Natalia LL
or the Artist as a Modern Shaman
Since the advent of time the function of myths and magical rituals was to generate harmony between the human mind, body and the surrounding world. Myths explained all physical phenomena using images borrowed from life - they were mystical dramatic texts, played out in a magical ritual to make the sun shine and the trees grow, to make the fields bear crops and to enable people to live without fear, in communion with Nature.
Mircea Eliade claims that myths spring from rituals of passage (birth, initiation, marriage, becoming a leader, death) and that they possess the symbolic content of those rituals, which is the death of the old imperfect "self" that must be then born again, but on a higher level of consciousness. Man becomes whole here as an "integral" or "universal"person while dicovering the symbols of his own body which is an "anthropocosm". Eliade argues that symbols and mythical motifs still live in the unconscious of contemporary man (for example in the image of paradise lost). They frequently return in our dreams, in the reflections of philosophers and generally - in human imagination. This is because mythical thinking is one of the most universal forms of man's consciousness. Nowadays the truth of myths is conveyed by works of art. In the contemporary world it is the artist who is their "sentinel", or - as Joseph Campbell says - "the equivalent of the shaman" who personally participated in the myth by way of a magical ritual. Arranging and performing it (and in it) he experienced mythical reality and thus showed his people the way that woul lead them towards spiritual life.
Natalia LL - an artist, and therefore a contemporary shaman - recalls the German myth about Odin whose figure itself, in Eliade's opinion, possesses many shamanic features. Small wonder, in my opinion, because old cultures that conceived the world as something democratic never clearly saw the difference between a god and a powerful sorcerer. Gods were often invisible magi, practicing behind the veil of Nature the same magic and spells which the shaman generated physically in his community.
Odin, boss of the other Nordic gods, the god of wisdom, is the most powerful sorcerer and the highest Magus. He is the prophet who knows the greatest mysteries of the world because he decided to submit himself to a hard initiation: for nine days Odin hanged on the sacred Cosmic Tree called YGGDRASIL. He died willingly (descending to Hell/Hel under one of the roots of the Tree) in order to acquire the knowledge of the dead (the wisdom of the runes and the power of clairvoyance), and then he was resurrected.
Natalia LL stages and takes part in precisely this fragment of this myth in her work called the Transfiguration of Odin. The work consists of three large-format photographs of three sitting figures. The first one depicts old Odin (he was always represented as an old man in mythological iconography), sitting with his head hanging down and resting on a hammer. His closed eyes suggest he is asleep, and at his feet lie a spear, a shield and a lily. The second photograph portrays a woman in black ("played" by Natalia here) in a triumphant pose. The scarf tied at the back of the woman's head is decorated with the motif of the skull. Natalia is holding a double skull in her folded hands. Her face is blank, expressionless. The third photograph shows a young, strong man with a shield in one hand and a hammer in the other. The man and the woman are naked.
For those who know the Odin myth the suggestion of the work is clear. It could be interpreted as an image of death/descent into Hell, and the resurrection and rebirth of Odin in new form. In this case Natalia - the woman in black from the second photograph - would symbolize Hel here, the powerful and unfeeling queen of the underworld.
The props used are also intelligible. The hammer is a symbol of power and strength (and of willpower that rules the mind), the shield a symbol of heavenly perfection and ascendence into higher spheres. The skull is the home of the soul; in alchemy it is the vessel of all kinds of transformations.
Pain, symbolic death represented by the vision of the descendence to Hell (to the other world), is the typical element of all shamanic ceremonies of initiation. A shaman is the chosen one, a unique individual prone to asceticism and meditation who displays exceptional "special magical abilities". For example he can put himself into an extatic trance, a lethargic sleep during which he experiences powerful visions of his soul leaving the body in order to go to Heaven or Hell and make contact with gods, ghosts of the dead, animals or Nature and acquire their knowledge.
The soul matures during this journey. And when it returns to the shaman's body, his spiritual birth takes place and thus mystical wholeness is complete. After the "resurrection" the shaman often receives the gift of clairvoyance. All rituals of initiation are about the candidate's search for power and tell the myth of renewal, rebirth by symbolic death.
In her next work Natalia LL changes into Odin's ravens. Those two birds - Huginn (Thought) and Muninn (Memory) - were flying messengers of the Great Magus who gave him all information they could find in all the spheres of the Cosmos. Mircea Eliade says that they represent typical shamanic auxiliary ghosts that reveal various mysteries of existence.
In his journey of initiation the shaman propitiates such auxiliary ghosts that usually take on an animal form. The shaman's mastering of the animal language, most of all of the birds, means getting to know Nature's secrets and the capacity to prophesize. Animals can reveal the mysteries of the future as they are regarded to be the vessels of the spirits of the dead or treated as epiphanies of the gods. Such auxiliary spirits are the actual sources of the shaman's magical powers and he always draws on the assistance of those spirits in his physical relationship with Nature.
Eliade writes that when the shaman participates in animal life, he reintroduces the situation of mythical times, when the division between man and the animal world had not yet taken place. Being friends with animals and understanding of their language are symptoms of Paradise, signs that the shaman has reintroduced a heavenly situation that was lost at the beginning of time.
In the beginning man not only lived in peace with animals but he could also communicate with them. In fact, in mythical times all people could contact Heaven and Earth. Due to some unfortunate incident this communication was broken. However, the shaman is able to renew it, symbolically climbing to Heaven, often on a rainbow which many peoples consider to be a bridge, connecting Heaven and Earth.
In the Odin myth, the fortress ASGARD (Heaven) is connected with MIDGARD (Earth) by a wonderful bridge-rainbow called BIFROST.
Natalia LL prepared a performance called Rainbow. In her own interpretation and words: "I would like to stand inside a rainbow and using the language of semaphore signals, which is proof to electronic distortions, tell people that there is meaning to life. [...] And even after death our energetic faculties shall not be forgotten."
The aim of shamanic rituals is not only to channel cosmic forces (since the shaman can obviously travel between Heaven, Earth and Hell) but also to protect the psychological integrity of the community. Mainly by means of making the people aware of the meaning of life, making them realize that the world of death can be domisticated and that the fear of it can be diminished. In all shamanic rituals, death, as Eliade writes, is valued as the ritual of passage to a spiritual level of existence.
Thanks to the shaman who always acts in the interest of the community, man understands his place on earth and in the universe. He discovers his internal powers, learns - by means of his participation in the ritual - certain principal mythical revelations, and becomes aware of the spiritual unity of society.
Contemporary man lost not only this feeling of unity. He cannot find spiritual contact with the Cosmos, but also with himself because somewhere he has lost the key to the understanding of his life and does not remember its meaning. He treats the world solely materially instead of enjoying its beauty. He forgot that people are an integral, although rational, part of Nature, that they are its eyes, ears and thoughts.
Art (like shamanic rituals in the old days) reminds us of this truth. It is, as Natalia LL says - "the language of communication, of the initiation into a world, our knowledge of which can never be complete", but which we can experience fully, living our lives consciously. Joseph Campbell argues that the function of the artist is to mythologize his surroundings and the world. Therefore, the artist, a creative, sensitive and unique individual among common mortals, teaches us how to live in harmony with ourselves, society and Nature. It makes us, the public, realize that eternity is here and now.

I'm not a massive fan of doing the break-downs. I just find them a little dull to write. It quickly becomes very he said, she said. They're important to have though - not everyone wants to read a script.
They should collect all of the copies if them, the master copy, Paul Anderson, the Strauss Bros, pile it up and set it a blaze. Burn it all out of the public's memory and do the Briggs Script like they should have in the first place. Problems solved.
I went and finally read this script after listening to the podcast. I agree that it's pretty good, especially for a first draft that was written very quickly. It's a shame that two pages are missing, and that the later drafts aren't out there to read. It's also a hell of a lot better than his Freddy vs Jason script.
What 2 pages? There were 2 pages the wrong way round but I don't think the PDF we've got was missing any.
He only did a single draft after this one. I really really really want to read that. I hope it surfaces eventually. From what I've heard of it it sounded like it had some really interested sequences.
The one that's floating around on the net as a text file has two pages missing.
Yeah, I ran into the pages the wrong way round and fixed it. The missing pages are 70 and 84, in my scan.
Yep, you're right. I forgot about that!
I've run into missing pages before when reading scripts. Sometimes, like this one, you don't miss a whole lot. In others, you miss how a certain scene resolves and go "what the fu- oh, it's the missing page."
Just some speculation that I ran across about Emmerich and Devlin's possible outline.
So it would have been about Arnold saving Goleefornya. I can dig it, especially since was back before Emmerich started sucking.

of farming country with cattle, corn, and wheat being the major crops. There are over 700 farms in Thayer County with an average size of 510 acres. Deshler is located on Highway 136 in the southern part of Thayer County in south-central Nebraska, 12 miles from the Kansas State Line. U.S. Highway 81 is eight miles to the east, and Interstate 80 is 55 miles north of the community. The State Capital, Lincoln, is 100 miles northeast of Deshler. The Deshler area is very popular for hunting pheasant, quail, deer and other small game. Excellent catfish and other pan fish can be caught from the nearby Little Blue River.


The Clinical Research Coordinator (CRC) plays a crucial, multifaceted role in managing translational research projects and is responsible for the implementation of study protocols in complex community and organizational environments. Despite the importance of the CRC role, standards for education are minimal and training is typically limited and fragmented, resulting in the absence of a comprehensive educational foundation among many CRCs. Such a foundation is required to meet the demands and expectations of a broad spectrum of research designs and settings. This shortcoming can lead to inefficiencies, delays and threats to quality in study implementation, and dissatisfaction/turnover in the CRC workforce. The purpose of this Administrative Supplement is to: 1) create and initiate a new curriculum leading to a Master's of Science degree in Clinical Research Coordination (30 credits MS-CRC) that will also allow students to exit with a Certificate after completion of basic core courses (16 credits); 2) evaluate the performance of the program using objective criteria, and 3) conduct an assessment to evaluate the feasibility of disseminating the program regionally and nationally. A broad-based advisory board composed of key stakeholders within the University of Rochester Center for Translational Science Institute (UR-CTSI) will provide guidance for curriculum development, and ensure optimal linkages with, and utilization of UR-CTSI resources, and establish linkages with the CTSA Consortium. Located in the School of Nursing, the new MS-CRC program will be developed as an added track within an existing Master of Science program (in Health Organization Management and Leadership). The MS-CRC program will admit qualified trainees who hold a BS degree or higher in a relevant field. Instructors will be drawn from faculty experts throughout the URMC. A mixed model approach will be used to evaluate outcomes, including graduate success rate for achievement of certification, perception of educational program, and employer satisfaction. Findings from the process and early impact evaluation will be used to refine the program to meet the needs of a broader audience. Through the CTSA Consortium, the feasibility of disseminating the Certificate/MS-CRC curriculum to other CTSA Centers will be explored. With this project a minimum of three new jobs will be created, a new workforce will be developed, and scientific discoveries will be accelerated.

Gomorrah: A Personal Journey into the Violent International Empire of Naples' Organized Crime System
By Virginia Jewiss and Roberto Saviano
History : Europe - Italy | True Crime : Organized Crime
A groundbreaking major bestseller in Italy, Gomorrah is Roberto Saviano's gripping nonfiction account of the decline of Naples under the rule of the Camorra, an organized crime network with a large international reach and stakes in construction, high fashion, illicit drugs, and toxic-waste disposal. Known by insiders as "the System," the Camorra affects cities and villages along the Neapolitan coast, and is the deciding factor in why Campania, for instance, has the highest murder rate in all of Europe and whycancer levels there have skyrocketed in recent years.
Saviano tells of huge cargoes of Chinese goods that are shipped to Naples and then quickly distributed unchecked across Europe. He investigates the Camorra's control of thousands of Chinese factories contracted to manufacture fashion goods, legally and illegally, for distribution around the world, and relates the chilling details of how the abusive handling of toxic waste is causing devastating pollution not only for Naples but also China and Somalia. In pursuit of his subject, Saviano worked as an assistant at a Chinese textile manufacturer, a waiter at a Camorra wedding, and on a construction site. A native of the region, he recalls seeing his first murder at the age of fourteen, and how his own father, a doctor, suffered a brutal beating for trying to aid an eighteen-year-old victim who had been left for dead in the street.
Gomorrah is a bold and important work of investigative writing that holds global significance, one heroic young man's impassioned story of a place under the rule of a murderous organization.

Biografia
Nacque a Carnegie (Oklahoma) da Morris Lawrence e Berenice Eaton. Quando era ancora adolescente andò a vivere con la madre a Kansas City e iniziò molto presto a posare come modella fotografica. Appena quindicenne fece la sua prima apparizione cinematografica, in un ruolo non accreditato, nel film Il cavallino d'oro (1945), mentre due anni più tardi apparve in una parte di rilievo, quella di Luisa de Carvajal, nell'avventura in costume Il capitano di Castiglia (1947), accanto a Tyrone Power. Mentre terminava i suoi studi alla U.C.L.A., ottenne ruoli di supporto in diversi successi della 20th Century Fox quali Infedelmente tua (1948), Strada senza nome (1948), Lettera a tre mogli (1949), I corsari della strada (1949).

Passata nel 1953 alla Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, la Lawrence apparve in Arena (1953) con Gig Young e nel melodramma Tra due amori (1954) con Greer Garson. L'anno successivo interpretò il ruolo di Gertie Cummings nel musical Oklahoma! (1955), mentre nel 1957 recitò in Kronos, il conquistatore dell'universo, accanto a Jeff Morrow, un film di fantascienza all'epoca poco apprezzato dalla critica, ma divenuto successivamente un piccolo classico del genere.

Durante gli anni cinquanta l'attrice lavorò anche per il piccolo schermo in numerose serie televisive di successo, come Four Star Playhouse (1953-1956) e Avventure lungo il fiume (1959). Le sue ultime apparizioni cinematografiche furono nell'avventura La tragedia del Rio Grande (1957) e nel western Il ritorno di Joe Dakota (1957), dopodiché la Lawrence si dedicò ancora per qualche tempo alla televisione, comparendo nelle serie Bonanza (1960) e Perry Mason (1958-1962). Nel 1962 si ritirò dall'attività artistica e andò a vivere per un certo periodo in America meridionale, per rientrare successivamente in California e diventare agente immobiliare a Beverly Hills. Sulla sua esperienza in Sudamerica scrisse poi un romanzo d'avventura, dal titolo Welcome to the Jungle. È scomparsa nel 2013 all'età di 83 anni per insufficienza renale

Vita privata
Barbara Lawrence si sposò tre volte e altrettante divorziò: dal 1947 al 1948 con John Fontaine, un attore noto con il nome d'arte di Jeffrey Stone; dal 1951 al 1957 con Johnny Murphy, dal quale ebbe due figli; dal 1961 al 1976 con Lester R. Nelson, dal quale ebbe altri due figli.

In Birders, by contrast, nature is one big entrancing show; a world of tweets without "tweets."
An engrossing tour of this little-known subculture and unlikely habitat in the center of densely populated Manhattan.
Birders vividly captures the distinctive colors and markings of a vast number of bird species and the equally individualized personalities of those watching them within the confines of Central Park.
[A] slight but handsome nature documentary.
Bird watchers will find affirmation and even explanation for their avocation. People who can't tell a towhee from a titmouse will still wonder at the beauty of it all.
It is a relatively short but luxurious film about birds and the people who watch them, and the way that nature finds a place in the city, and in its citizens.
Kimball, behind the lens, captures extraordinary images of these birds (he lists them, by the way, in the credits). Equally enrapturing are the birders themselves.
Birders makes a wealth of species even more readily available, and close-up.
Visually splendid doc has a narrow scope but will charm bird-lovers.
There are no featured reviews for Birders: The Central Park Effect at this time.

5 Stories You Might Have Missed This Week
May 16, 2014 by Todd Christman
We know you don't have time to see all the news that's out there, especially news that is relevant and interesting to ATs. Those stories aren't the easiest to find as they don't often show up at the top of news feeds. But there are stories out there every week that feature ATs or are related to the profession. So here are five stories that you might not have seen this week but we thought you might like to check out.
A tribute to what a small group with conviction can accomplish. The contract to keep AT Lynn Brumbach working with the district was renewed by the West Shore School Board after pleas from less than a dozen students and parents.

Michigan State AT Brian Bratta and Kevin Morin, who have been friends since graduate school, already had a lot in common. They sit next to each other at MSU football games, are both from small Midwest towns and have large families. Now they have shared one more thing: Bratta's kidney.

This walking holiday will give you the chance to explore Scotland's wild and magical Atlantic Coast! The Hebridean Islands Staffa, Mull, Iona will offer unforgetable walking, history and wildife adventure!
Scotland's wild Atlantic coast has been sculpted into a spectacular landscape by deep fjord like sea lochs and the green beautiful islands of the Inner Hebrides whilst the surrounding alpine mountains of the Highlands complete a dramatic scenery and are home to a wide variety of wildlife.
Discover Neolithic Stone Circles, explore Castles and magnificent Rhododendron Gardens, visit a Buddhist community on a remote island, watch for sea eagles and otters, sit amoung the delightful puffins on their rock in the sea and hike along ruggedly beautiful coastal paths between mountains, sea and sky.
The West Coast was home to Scotland's first people who left many traces of their culture, some up to 5000 year old, in the valleys, along the shore and on hill tops. Later, in the 5th century, the first Scottish Kings arrived from Ireland establishing their Kingdom of Dalriada. St. Columba settled on the tiny island Iona around the same time and undertook the christianization of Scotland. To this day, Iona is the home of a thriving ecumenical community and the lovingly restored Abbey in its remote coastal setting a feast for eye and spirit.
For your comfort we have chosen and tested good quality, cosy and hospitable 3 star accommodation in hotels and guesthouses.
The local pub is an excellent place to celebrate your day's adventures in the evenings - with delicious ale and good food in the company of your group of fellow travellers.
This versatile trip to the Inner Hebrides offers stunning outdoor experiences, a day with an expert wildlife guide on the Isle of Mull, an awesome boat trip to a Puffin colony, unexpected cultural delights and accommodation in truly idyllic and authentic small island hotels and guesthouses. Hiking is easy to moderate and the days' pace such that you can enjoy and truly take in what is around you.
The sea and wild landscapes offer superb opportunities for observing wild birds and sea mammals in their natural environments. Learn to distinguish between eagles, buzzards and ospreys and follow the trail of otters on land. A special island expedition takes you into the amazing world of Atlantic seabirds to the Isle of Lunga where you spend time with puffins, gannets, fulmars, razorbills and manx shearwaters. The early summer is breeding time and so quite special.
Your walking group of no more than 8 allows flexibility and a friendly, personal ambience. You are accompanied throughout by an experienced and knowledgeable guide who will endeavour to make your holiday a wonderful and enjoyable experience.
We meet at Glasgow Central Station at 10 am and 15 minutes after at Glasgow Airport and head for Ardrossan Harbour (1 hrs drive) to catch the ferry to Arran (1 hour). The Isle of Arran lies in the huge estuary of the Glasgow River Clyde and is surrounded by mainland on three sides and only in the south open to the ocean. Often called miniature Scotland, the island's northern half has stunning volcanic mountains and in the south rolling green fields. We explore Brodick Castle and its extensive and beautiful Rhododendron Gardens. Following lunch on the castle terrace with breathtaking views to the mainland we make our way to the impressive neolithic site in Machrie Moor. Its stone circles and unusual dolmens are particularly mystical in the early evening light.
We leave Arran via its northern harbour Lochranza und drive along the scenic and island dooted coastline of Argyll. At Kilmartin, we find a wealth of prehistoric monuments. On foot, we discover 5000 year old burial cairns, standing stones and amazing rock carvings and explore Dunadd Fort, where the first Scottish Kings were crowned 500 BC. The day provides a fascinating insight into a lesser known part of Scottish history. Later this afternoon, we will travel by ferry from Oban to the Isle of Mull en route to Iona. Our home for 2 nights is the charming Argyll Hotel with a relaxing garden, grand views and an excellent restaurant.
Probably Scotland's most important early Christian historical monument is Iona Abbey. Founded by St Columba along with 12 monks in the 6th century Columba undertook the task of christianizing Scotland. There are 12th century ruins, artful celtic crosses and the well restored and quite special building of the Abbey to explore. Not to be missed is a walk along the island's wonderful white beaches and green meadows and a minisule hill for a gigantic view.
We leave Iona for the Isle of Mull - a green paradise with valleys, hills, a rocky coast and an abundance of wildlife. Ruth, our island expert, will take us right into the world of eagles, otters, ancient history and wonderful landscapes with lots of interesting stories. The tiny island Ulva is an almost uninhabited paradise which will be our roaming ground for the day. We will spend time watching for wildlife and looking at plants - all at a slow pace.
This is a highlight of your holiday: we take a boat to the Treshnish Isles where we discover the magnificent Final's Cave which inspired Mendelssohn to write his famous Hebrides Ouverture. The neighboring island Lunga is home to an amazing number of breeding Puffins who are so busy flying in and out of their nests, looking after their brood that they hardly notice us. We are awe - inspired! There are many other birds - Razorbills, Guillemots, Gannets and Shags - all living together in protective harmony for the breeding season.
We say good bye to Mull. In Oban you can visit the local whisky distillery for a quick delicious taste or simply stroll along the busy promenade with an ice cream! We arrive in Glasgow at around 17 hours where your trip ends.

Physiatrists treat acute and chronic pain and musculoskeletal disorders. They may see a person who lifts a heavy object at work and experiences back pain, a basketball player who sprains an ankle and needs rehabilitation to play again, or a knitter who has carpal tunnel syndrome and needs nerve conduction studies. Physiatrists' patients include people with arthritis, tendinitis and any kind of back pain, and work or sports-related injuries.
Physiatrists also co-ordinate the long-term medical and rehabilitation process for patients with spinal-cord injuries, cancer, stroke or other neurological disorders, brain injuries, amputations and multiple sclerosis.
Physical medicine and rehabilitation is a speciality within the medical field. It involves a five year residency program after the completion of medical school. A specialist in physical medicine and rehabilitation is also known as a physiatrist. Physiatrists treat a wide range of problems that range from sore shoulders to spinal cord injuries. They see patients in all age groups and treat problems that touch upon all the major systems of the body. The focus of these specialists is restoring function to people.
Physiatrists practice in rehabilitation centres, hospitals and private offices. They often have a broad practice, but some concentrate on one area such as pediatrics, sports medicine, spinal cord medicine, brain injury or various other fields.
In Edmonton, most physiatrists practice at the Glenrose Rehabilitation Hospital where the speciality program is based.
