It was a gorgeous and warm day out there today. The clouds appear to be moving in now, I think, and possibly stay for the weekend. But while it was nice and sunny around midday, Pippi had her twins, a buck and a doe. They are beautiful half Lamancha/half Guernsey babies. They both have Lamancha ears, which is to say, not much! So no eartags for these two cuties.
Last night it was apparent that Pippi had lost her mucous plug, but nothing more was happening at the 2 AM and the 5 AM checks. At breakfast, she moved in front of a hay feeder and would not let anyone else near it. She staked out her claim for that sheltered little spot in the sun. When Pippi gets serious about something, she really gets serious! Every time we went up to check on her, she gave us a growly earful and kept poking her head out at us like aa angry goose. Clearly telling us to Get Lost. At 1 PM she really looked ready, but again, she gave us the bum's rush, and it might have been my imagination, but it looked like she was holding herself so tightly under control that she wouldn't have a contraction in front of us. And then she must have popped that first baby out minutes after we left, because when we got back up there at 2:15, they were both up, and the little doeling had a big old milky mouth, and she was almost dry. Her larger brother was still quite damp and having some trouble getting to the milk bar, which we helped remedy.
It's a huge relief that this kidding went well, no emergencies or disasters. The other three ladies in waiting are on track so far, and hopefully all will go smoothly. And Battie is doing much better. I think the steroids we ended up treating her with made a big difference. We still have to wait and see how she does, presuming that there is nothing left in her uterus that could become infected (she had a number of shots to keep her uterus expelling stuff). I felt really bad for her today because she just wanted to get into the jug with Pippi and the new babies. She is still calling to her babies when I milk her out in the eveninig, too. Ah well, this too shall pass. She cozies up to her baby from two years ago, Betsy, and it should be ok. That's life in the livestock fast lane! And so it goes.
Precious beyond belief! I wonder if goats have feelings and Battie is mourning the loss of her two or if it's nature's way of having her call for her 'lost' babies. Either way, I'm happy for the new cutie pies an so sad for the lost ones. Thanks for the update and surprise!
Thanks, Sunny. I don't know if she is mourning or not. It seems so, or maybe it's just that she knows something is missing. But she really wanted to have a closer look at Pippi's little ones.
I am glad to hear Pippi and her babies are doing well! I remember a few years ago when Pippi had trouble, and it seemed touch and go for a while.


Scent of the Night, Zoologist Panda EDP by Victor Wong this is the second sample I am testing from Victor's upcoming fragrance line and it is just wonderful, the opening starts off with a blast of green tea and pepper which gives it a very clean, grassy, watery, slightly soapy vibe, almost like a Prada fragrance does, and the pepper gives the fragrance some warmth, spice and punch.
Then after about an hour or so that dies down and it morphs into a totally different fragrance which is the part I love most about it, then I get some incense, woods and vetiver, the incense is very light and makes the fragrance slightly sweet and aromatic, the woods and vetiver make it dry and earthy, I think this can be worn all year 'round and it would really bloom in the warmer months, I get average projection and average longevity, I can't say enough great things about Panda, very well blended and smells fantastic, I really do love it Victor, this edges out Beaver slightly for me, 5/5 Stars, I can't wait to get my hands on a bottle of it.
Tom Ford is a very busy business man, but each day he can still find time to christen each vat of perfume by taking a long bath in it – that is why despite the line has so many different scents, they somehow all share similarities. Jonquille de Nuit (2012), a narcissus themed perfume, should by default smell intoxicating, but Tom Ford definitely took his time washing his body in it with extra soap and shampoo to make it very manly, perverse and… soapy. The result is a scent that's not most well-loved and it got discontinued in merely two years since its debut.
Tom Ford's Jonquille de Nuit definitely caught my attention when it came out in the market, but I was very hesitant to buy it because while I could detect a big amount of narcissus in it, the other ingredients almost "polluted" it, making it very bitter and green. (Similar to Balmain's Vent Vert but more intense and floral.) But it's a supposed to be a sophisticated unisex perfume, so on that level, it's a good dark green floral, or, in my opinion, a little evil springtime scent.
Vent Vert (1947) is one of those perfumes with a long history and is still available in the market. What it does not have is integrity and foresights from perfumers who were responsible for its reformations over the years. It has gone through at least three reformulations, and Luca Turin announces in his book that Vent Vert, is dead. If it is dead, Balmain reformulated the corpse one more time and has given it a new packaging and a new price tag, 75 Euros for 75ml instead of $50 for 100ml.
The bottle I have, I believe, is the 1999's reformulation (the dead one), and it smells ok. Actually very good, but as I have read enough negative reviews, I do not dare to say it's great. (Kind of like saying the latest Adam Sandler's movie is great very loudly in a movie critics convention.) But I like it as is – a little bit green and bitterness, rosy and a little bit powdery, and I do not feel like spending more money trying to find the vintage vintage versions on eBay. But I can imagine the glory Vent Vert had had when it came out – "With its famous overdose of the ingredient galbanum, which imparts a bitter-green freshness to scents, Vent Vert is herbs, bent stems and roses.", writes Barbara Herman in her book, Scent & Subversion. Let's be complacent that I have the better version of Vent Vert at a greater price than the newest one.
P.S. Actually I have never smelled the newest one. I wonder if it is better?
Some time ago I mentioned the difficulty of getting a new bottle of Gucci Envy for Men. However, I have never felt the pressure of getting a bottle of Gucci Envy for Women because I can see them in every discounted perfume shop in Toronto. (Not in great abundance, but at least one or two bottles.) But, all discontinued perfumes will someday get sold out, I think it's better be safe than sorry, so I bought a bottle a few days ago.
While appreciating Envy for Woman for the first time, I suddenly realized that I had smelled it before, at least a few times. I don't remember when, who wore it, or the location, but the smell was so distinct and pretty that I somehow recognized it. It is like watching Disney's Dumbo when I was a kid, I don't remember a thing about it now, but I knew I had watched it in a cinema.
I would compare Envy for Women to Prescriptives' Calyx (both are 5-star perfumes in Luca Turin's book); they share similar structure – fruity tops, rosy/lily-of-the-valley middle notes, but Envy is lighter, fresher, more distinct, and has a surprisingly strong longevity.
I wonder why there are more bottles of Envy for Women than for Men. May be it was so good and had sold so well that Gucci had over-produced Envy for Women. Or may be men tend to buy the same perfume when a bottle is finished and hence the remaining stock gets depleted faster? Either way, I am glad that I have all the Envy – and can see how brilliant the two minimalistic bottle designs can suggest the envy of men and women.
The original Futur was introduced in 1960 by Robert Piguet, and I imagine they wanted to market it as "a perfume from the future" but you can smell it now!
I have never smelled the vintage version, but I bet it doesn't smell like any contemporary perfumes, which are supposed to be "the future". In 2009, nearly 50 years later, they relaunched Futur with a new formula. I blind-bought a bottle because I wanted to know what a "revived future perfume" would smell like.
Futur smells like nothing I have ever smelled; it is a cocktail of different era and genre. It smells retro but not vintage; it smells green and cedar-ly like a forest but the flowers are bigger than the trees. It is just f**king weird to me. It reminds me of Bandit, not of the smell, but under what occasions I would wear it and leave home, which is none. But, I do wear it at home frequently, for its strangeness and addictive quality when you know it well enough.


You might be forgiven for thinking that the Wolseley, whose grand façade nestles next to the Ritz Hotel, was a fin de siecle restaurant, which rivalled the grand cafés of the Continent, i.e. Paris, Vienna, Munich, and Budapest. You would be wrong, but then again this is what you are meant to think. In fact, this imposing building, created by the same architect who built The Dorchester, was originally the showroom for the Wolseley Car Company in the 1920s, when there was a vogue for motoring in the era following the Great War.
Part of the experience of the Wolseley is its architecture. The Wolseley is grandeur personified. The main inspiration for the building was Brunelleschi's Santa Spirito in Florenc,e and the marble floors are modelled on those of churches of Pisa and San Marco in Venice. The Wolseley boasts Byzantine light fitting, baroque ironwork, Doric Interior and Corinthian exterior columns, and a Mansard roof in the French style. This is not a case of less is more. This is luxury that makes the recently completed temple to excess, 1, Knightbridge, look like a almshouse. The Wolseley was built by a generation who understood the meaning of beauty and craftsmanship.
In 2003 Chris Corbin and Jeremy King opened the now-famous and beloved Wolseley, and the rest is history. The Wolseley Café and Restaurant has become an adored and iconic institution, dedicated to breakfast….and every other form of lunching and dining with savoir faire. Breakfast, however, is the Wolseley's raison d'être.
The Wolseley is the ultimate word in breakfast. It will impress the colleague, woo the girl, and astound the long-lost friend. It's a hit spot that remains hot after many years.
The Wolseley was born in 2003, the brainchild of King and Corbin of Caprice fame. It is a delightful throw-back to the bemoaned long-lost days of power dining. One only needs to enter the airy and old-fashioned room, complete with grand pillars, leather booths and marble floor, to smell the aroma of success, fame and glamour wafting through the air.
Beg to sit by the windows, the perfect spot for subtly eyeballing the famous and infamous, but not so good for disguising the bags under your eyes. Once you've indulged in the wonderfully copious menu, the bags will be gone, and the hair will be bouncy once again.
The menu is a gastronomic delight and a challenge to those who find it hard to make a decision. Everything from cheese soufflé to kippers, from foie gras to chocolate sandwiches, is on the rather long and verbose menu. There is a great choice of drinks as well. For example, you're offered every type of tea one might find in the Chinaman's pot, wine from every continent, and a coffee list unlike any other. Try an affogato, (espresso poured over vanilla ice cream), a melya (short espresso with Greek honey and single cream,) or the Wolseley Imperial (Mandarin Napoleon and Cognac, long espresso and hot milk, topped with chocolate and whipped cream.) Whew!
For breakfast or brunch, you'd be well advised to wash down a basket of flaky pastries, followed by a very buttery Edds Benedict or the creamy porridge with a luscious hot chocolate sent straight from "chocololic's heaven." The orange juice is so fresh you should slap it before it starts to get cheeky.


Very good job cleaning and drying everything.
Jerry was here most often; he was always very happy and polite while performing his work and I have never seen a harder worker. All of the team who worked on our home were friendly, polite and hard workers. Hope we never need them again, but if we do I hope they would come back.
The vendor was very helpful and knowledgeable during this stressful situation. All team members were very professional and really displayed amazing customer service throughout the incident. I can't thank them enough.
Eric and Darlene were wonderful. They were professional, courteous, informative and extremely nice. They made a stressful situation much more manageable.
All workers affiliated with this job were kind and outstanding in dealing with me. Eric is an outstanding asset to your franchise. He is compassionate and very focused on giving the highest quality of service.

Ohio Ebola Scare Leads To School Closures
by Dan Evon 8 years ago 8 years ago
At least two schools in Ohio cancelled classes today due to growing concerns about Ebola in the area.
MSN reports that Solon Middle School and Parkside Elementary School were closed on Thursday as a precautionary measure. In an email to parents, the school said that the decision to close was made because a school staff member reportedly flew on the Frontier Airlines plane that carried Amber Joy Vinson.
Parkside Elementary and Solon Middle School are CLOSED on Thursday, October 16.
— Solon Schools (@SolonSchools) October 16, 2014
The staff member is not showing any signs of Ebola. Still, the school district has decided to keep the staff member away from the school for 21 days. The schools will also be disinfected.
CDC Director Dr. Tom Frieden said that all 132 passengers who flew with Vinson, who treated Ebola patient Tim Duncan, were contacted after the flight. Frieden added that there was an "extremely low" risk that anyone on the plane contracted Ebolal from Vinson.
The school writes in the email: "These extraordinary actions went beyond CDC recommendations. These steps were taken out of concern for the safety of our customers and employees. Steps such as removing the aircraft from service, removing aircraft seat covers and carpet and replacing environmental filters as well as placing the crew on paid leave were not requested nor mandated by the CDC."
USA Today reports that three schools in Texas were also closed this week. Superintendent Susan Kincannon of the Belton Independent School District said that two students were on the same flight as Amber Joy Vinson.

Barcelona Rambla
The most famous avenue in Barcelona
A meeting point between Plaça Catalunya (Catalonia Square) and the Port Vell, Barcelona's Rambla, located in the Old Town district (Ciutat Vella), is undoubtedly the city's busiest 2 kilometres of pedestrian avenues (the Ramblas), where a mix of artists, painters, musicians, merchants and restaurants provide the greatest satisfaction for tourists.
Barcelona Ramblas street
The Ramblas avenue forms an intersection between the Gothic Quarter (Barrio Gotico), the medieval centre of Barcelona, with the unmissable Cathedral of Santa Eulalia at the heart of its narrow streets, and the Raval Quarter, where the famous Palau Guell is located.
The monument to Columbus, which closes the walk towards Port Vell, as well as the Teatro del Liceu, La Boqueria, or Plaça Reial, are some of the must-sees on a visit to the Ramblas.
Barcelona Rambla route
1. Palau Guell
After a few steps on the Rambla towards Plaça Catalunya, which marks the end of the Ramblas, you will have to turn into the street "Nou de la Rambla" to discover one of Antoni Gaudi's most beautiful works, the Palau Gell. Built for the wealthy industrialist Eusebi Güell, who lived here for a few years before leaving for the Guell Park, the Palau Güell contains architectural treasures and ingeniousness not to be missed.
2. Barcelona Plaça Reial
This is the result of a project to convert a former convent, the Plaça Reial de Barcelona (Royal Square), which is on the right as we continue up the Ramblas towards Plaça Catalunya.
Mainly made up of bars and restaurants, where to take a break in the shade halfway between Plaça Catalunya and the old port, the Plaça Reial is the only arcaded square in Barcelona.
3. theater of the Liceu
A little before crossing the Mosaic of Joan Miro, while continuing our visit of the Ramblas towards the most famous square of the city, we meet on our left great theater of the Liceu.
Considered to be one of the greatest opera houses in the world, the Gran Teatro del Liceu is both the most prestigious and oldest theatre in Barcelona..
4. Joan Miró mosaic
To reach Barcelona's busiest market from our stop at the Liceu theatre, we will have to pass by Miro's unmistakable mosaic. Joan Miro's work named Pla de l'Os designed on the ground, symbolizes the cosmos and the sea.
The most trampled mosaic of Joan Miro's works welcomes tourists to Barcelona.
5. Boqueria Market
Continuing our walk along the Rambla, we will find on our left the market of La Boqueria. Located in the heart of the Ramblas de Barcelona la Boqueria, is without a doubt the Barcelona's most popular market ; a veritable feast of colours and smells where fresh fruit and vegetables lead the way to the rhythm of the comings and goings of passing people.
6. Canaletes Fountain
At the end of the ascent of the Rambla from the port in the direction of Plaça Catalunya, last stop : The "Canaletes Fountain". As well as being known as a gathering place to celebrate Barça's victories, the Canaletes Fountain (Font de les Canaletes in Catalan) is famous for the superstition that those who drink its water will return to Barcelona.
At the foot of the Ramblas in Barcelona
Barcelona port Vell
Bordered by a very pleasant promenade that stretches from Christopher Columbus monument to Barceloneta, and reaches to the beaches of Barcelona, the Port Vell is the oldest port in the city.

Q: Unable to update Android Studio because of Kotlin plugin When I attempt to update Android Studio (Arctic Fox to Electric Eel), I get an error message

Plugin incompatible with the new build found: Kotlin

The only option it gives me is to download the new version of Android Studio. If I download the software and attempt to install it, it doesn't overwrite the previous version of Android Studio, instead it attempts to install a second version. The Kotlin plugin is up-to-date and if I uninstall it, I'm concerned it will cause more issues because so many other things depend on it.
Are there any steps I can take to enable the update button instead of the download button?

A: It seems that someone have had a similar issue, but with another version of Android Studio, here

WOE TO THOSE WHO HARM THE LITTLE ONES! WOE TO THOSE WHO SLAUGHTER MY GIFTS! AND WOE TO ALL WHO STAND IN AGREEMENT! Says The Lord. For they are and were created, sculpted delicately in fragile flesh, attached to The Vine before their very conception. For it is the fool who says in her heart, "There is no God," believing she answers only to herself, as she testifies aloud, saying, "It is my body, my choice." YOU CHOOSE DEATH! Says The Lord. For the child within you is Mine, even as you are Mine also; your body is not your own! ALL BELONG TO THE LORD, ALL ANSWER TO ME!
Therefore, thus says The Lord: The murder of the innocent leads to the death of the guilty, who carry the innocent within them; take no part in their sin. For all who do wear equally the guilt of the mother, all seek the penalty of death; from the lawmakers to the voters, to the building owner to the workers to the suppliers, and finally to the father, if he does not take a stand to protect the unborn who are without blame. Behold, they have brought the wrath of God upon their nation, upon their state and upon their cities, calamity upon calamity until I have laid them waste!

El Conservatori Professional de Música i Dansa d'Eivissa i Formentera és l'unic conservatori de les Pitiüses on cursar ensenyaments elementals de dansa i ensenyaments elementals i professionals de música.

Al conservatori d'Eivissa es pot tocar el clarinet, fagot, flauta, guitarra, oboe, percussió, piano, saxofón, trombó, trompa, trompeta, viola, violí, violoncel, contrabaix i cant. Es poden cursar estudis de dansa clàssica i dansa espanyola. El conservatori professional de música d'Eivissa neix a partir de l'escola de música que direixia la professora de piano Catalina Bufí. Donada la gran quantitat d'alumnes que havien de viatjar a Mallorca per a poder realitzar proves lliures, es va sol·licitar, per part dels pares, la possibilitat que un tribunal és pogués desplaçar a Eivissa per evitar aquests viatges i les despeses. Gràcies a aquesta iniciativa i a la seva aprovació, el 9 de juliol de l'any 1977, es desplaçava per primera vegada un tribunal format desde el Conservatori de Mallorca. Després de l'èxit d'aquest projecte, al mes de març de l'any 1980 aquella escola de música en convertí en una extensió del conservatori de Mallorca. La seu d'aquesta delegació va continuar sent l'espai privat de la professora Catalina Bufí.

Desde llavors, el conservatori ha anat evolucionant fins que l'any 1989, es traslladà a un espai públic: l'edifici polivalent de Cas Serres, propietat del consell insular d'Eivissa i Formentera. A partir de l'any 2000, aquesta aula d'extensió s'independitza i es crea el conservatori professional d'Eivissa i Formentera amb un equip directiu i clautre de professors independent i una aula d'extensió a Formentera. el 26 de gener del 2011 fou inaugurat el nou centre, on està actualment el conservatori de musica d'Eivissa situat a l'Avinguda d'Espanya numero 15, propietat del govern balear.

What are the causes of painful adhesions after a caesarean?
Answered by: Prof B Krishna Rau | Professor and Head of Dept. of Surgery,
Sri Ramachandra Medical College, Chennai
Q: My wife underwent a caesarean section four months ago. She complains of pain in her abdomen. The doctor, after an ultrasound examination said that everything is alright and the pain may be due to the development of post-surgical adhesions and will take its own time. The pain becomes acute and my wife feels the formation of gas in her stomach. What are these adhesions? What are the reasons for their formation and how can these be cured?
A:It is 5 months since C-section was carried out. The adhesions are due to sticking of intestines, Omentum (fat), get stuck to each other or to the scar of operation. This naturally happens in 10% of patients after surgery. The pain normally reduces and disappears in few months time. If signs of intestinal obstruction develop, Laparoscopic adhesiolysis is done. I usually prescribe Jonac rectal suppository once or twice a day depending on the severity of pain.

Abstract The objective of this paper is to study some characteristics of a component to buildings made with gypsum plaster (commercial – CGP and recycled – RGP), and wastes (red ceramic – RC and porcelain – PW) by loading-pressure. Bricks were prepared with a solid mass composition containing 50% (by weight) of binder, 50% (by weight) of waste, and very small water/dried powder ratio (0.22). Specimens were molded with uniaxial loading-pressure (10 kN) before setting times. Compressive and flexural strengths, porosity, and microstructure were evaluated. The compressive results were in the range of 12.3 and 33.9 MPa, higher than the minimum required by Brazilian Standards to building components (≥2.5 MPa). The low water/solid mass ratio and the uniaxial loading-pressure before setting times contribute to decreasing the porosity, which was shown in the dense microstructure. The obtained results show that these components present a good quality building component.

Turning waste into a resource is a way to increase resource use efficiency and close the material loop of a circular economy. Gypsum plasterboard is well suited for this, because the raw material calcium sulphate dihydrate (CaSO4·2H2O) can repeatedly change its properties through a reversible hydration reaction. The waste hierarchy is applied when plasterboard is recycled instead of landfilled, which contributes to the European 2020 target of 70% recovery of construction and demolition (C&D) was... more

Plaster is primarily used as a building material obtained by the calcination of gypsum. Its rapid setting time (time for the mixture to solidify) and the low quality of labor generate a large amount of nonused material. Due to its solubility in water, wasted gypsum cannot be disposed of in the environment, and its recycling process is encouraged. In this work, quantitative phase analyses (QPA) using X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) data and the Rietveld method were carried out to determine the am... more

Water travels on a long journey from a water treatment facility to your household pipes. Along the way, water can pick up numerous contaminants, including sediment, silt, and microorganisms.
Additionally, pipe corrosion may add copper, lead, and other metals to your water. If left untreated, these water impurities may lead to illness, sink and bathtub stains, and mineral deposits that clog your pipes.
Does your water leave deposits?
You may have hard water. This means that your water has excessive calcium and magnesium in its supply. Water from 1 to 3.5 grains per gallon is considered hard, and 7 to 10.5 grains per gallon is considered very hard. This can lead to scale deposits, soap residue, and dry skin. A Water Softener or Scale Control System is recommended for these contaminants.
You may have copper in your water supply. This can lead to gastrointestinal illnesses. A Whole House Filter is recommended for this contaminant.
You may have manganese in your water supply. This can lead to a bitter, metallic taste. A Whole House Filter is recommended for this contaminant.
You may have iron in your water supply. This can lead to stains, a metallic taste, or a rusty color. An Iron & H2S Filter is recommended for this contaminant.
What does your water smell like?
You may have chlorine in your water supply. This can dry out hair and skin. A Whole House Filter or Point-of-Use System are recommended for this contaminant.
You may have hydrogen sulfide in your water supply. This can lead to a rotten egg or chemical smell. A Whole House Filter or Iron & H2S Filter is recommended for this contaminant.
You may have dissolved solids in your water supply. This can lead to gastrointestinal illness and foul odors. A Whole House Filter or Point-of-Use System is recommended for this contaminant.
You may have barium or cadmium in your water supply. This can lead to circulatory system and kidney system effects. A Whole House Filter is recommended for these contaminants.
What does your water taste like?
You may have chloride or sulfate in your water supply. This can lead to diarrhea and a salty taste. A Whole House Filter or Point-of-Use System is recommended for these contaminants.
You may have iron or zinc in your water supply. This can lead to a metallic taste. A Whole House Filter or Point-of-Use System is recommended for these contaminants.
Whereas foul water taste, odor, and appearance can hint at a water contamination problem, invisible contaminants can be difficult to detect. The best way to figure out whether your water is contaminated is to have your water tested.
If your water comes from a municipal public water supplier, you should receive an annual drinking water report from the EPA every summer. You can see your drinking water quality report online or contact your water supplier to get a copy on the EPA website.
If you are a private well owner or if you get your water from a public water source, but wish to test for contaminants that aren't covered in the EPA, you can send a sample of your water to a state-certified laboratory. Visit the EPA laboratory certification page for a list of state-certified drinking water laboratories.
A professional water dealer can both test your water and provide you with water quality solutions if there are any issues. Contact a Charger Water Treatment Products location to find a dealer in your area.

Oslo: Dream Mile Tradition Continues
by Nadarajah Sethurupan | @ | May 30, 2016 11:04 am
The Dream Mile is synonymous with the ExxonMobil Bislett Games. There is virtually no other race on the track and field circuit that connects an event, a city and a recognised standard of excellence as does the Dream Mile in Oslo. It has become a contest that is immediately acknowledged through its particular history and its resume of quality of results.
The history speaks for itself, the World Records with Ovett, Coe, Cram, etc. The superstars of the sport, Bayi, Walker, Morceli and El Guerrouj, have all competed in the illustrious race. Not to forget the abundance of National records established in this race – Australia, New Zealand, Qatar, Ireland, Germany, Spain, Great Britain, Somalia, Portugal, Canada, Brazil, Saudi Arabia, to name a few.
The current World Champion, Asbel Kiprop, is a multi-winner of the Dream Mile and returns to the Diamond Race event at Bislett with a dual purpose, winning and winning in a fast time!
He will meet stern opposition from the likes of Ayanleh Souleiman (DJI), who is not only the fastest man in the field with a personal best of 3:47.32 but recently claimed the World Indoor record for 1000m and would dearly love to come away from Oslo with early season "bragging rights".
Kiprop's countrymen Silas Kiplagat and Elijah Manangoi are both major threats in style of race. Kiplagat has run under 3:50 for the Mile on two occasions and has gone below 3:30 for 1500m on four separate occasions. The quality of his racing record makes him one of the most consistent competitors ever at this distance.
Manangoi was a relative unknown until last season when not only did he surprise by making the Kenyan team at the World Championships but almost provided the biggest shock of the meeting by securing a silver medal in the 1500m after looking a winner in the home straight and only being passed by Asbel Kiprop in the "shadows of the tape". This will be Manangoi's first attempt at the Mile but judging by his personal best at 1500m (3:29.76), he will be looking at something under 3:50!
Four years ago at the ExxonMobil Bislett Games, an unheralded young Algerian athlete by the name of Taoufik Makhloufi won the 1500m on the pre-program, but did it in impressive fashion. What followed in that Olympic year is now history as Makhloufi went on to win the Gold medal in London and has since established himself as one to the world's leading 800m / 1500m competitors with outstanding personal bests of 1:43.53 and 3:28.75. He represents a real threat to Kenyan domination of this event.
Others who will have their eyes firmly set upon National Records will be the powerful Czech Jakub Holusa, fresh from his medal at the World Indoors, and Australia's Ryan Gregson who was in such commanding form during the Oceania domestic season.
Of course there is the Norwegian record holder Henrik Ingebrigtsen! The twenty-five-year-old from the west of Norway established his country's Mile record (3:50.77 ) in this stadium two years ago and would like nothing more than to achieve a sub 3:50 clocking in front of the rapturous Bislett crowd. This year he will face competition from his two-year-younger brother Filip who has already run 3:37.04 this year, making him the second fastest Norwegian ever in the 1500m, only Henrik has gone faster.
Once again, the perfect conditions, the fast track and the excitable patrons will gather in a suburb of Oslo to welcome competitors to the time honoured ExxonMobil Bislett Games "Dream Mile".

ANTHONY MARTIAL's agent admits he could leave Manchester United next month.
Martial's future is uncertain after a difficult start to life under Jose Mourinho.
The France striker, who joined Manchester United in 2015 in a deal which could eventually rise to £60million, has been left on the bench for most of the season.
Martial, 21, has started just seven of United's 18 Premier League games and has scored just once - but has five in all competitions.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic's arrival and Marcus Rashford's rise has meant fewer chances for the former Monaco man to impress.
And Mourinho has also preferred Juan Mata, Jesse Lingard and in recent weeks Henrikh Mkhitaryan to Martial.
Martial has been linked with a loan move to West Ham and Sevilla, but Express Sport understands Mourinho will not sanction a departure next month.
However Martial's agent has revealed he is in talks with other clubs and the move could be on.
"Sevilla? We are indeed studying this possibility, we are talking about a large club," Philippe Lamboley told ABCdeSevilla according to Le10Sport.
Manchester United have won four Premier League games in a row and have been inspired by Ibrahimovic.
The Swedish striker joined United from Paris Saint-Germain on a free in the summer and took Martial's No.9 shirt.
He has now scored an incredible 17 goals for the club, 12 in the league, and is just two away from scoring more than Lionel Messi in the calendar year.
His goal against Sunderland on Boxing Day was his 50th in 2016.
Martial, meanwhile, has not scored for three games after netting a double in the League Cup against West Ham.

John Marquis says the goals he has scored in the past few weeks have been a reward for the belief he has in himself as a striker.
The 25-year-old netted his 10th of the season against Rotherham United last weekend, and says that was a result of getting in the same areas which brought him success previously.
He said: "Over the past four or five games some goals and assists have come into my performances, I don't think much has changed to be honest and I haven't altered my game.
"I've had the rub of green in front of goal and managed to finish a couple of chances off, that can happen when you're a striker and you have to keep believing in yourself.
"I only had the one chance against Rotherham and I managed to take it, but there's been other games where I've had two or three chances and not took any so it can work both ways."
Rovers go up against Bury this weekend, and having won the reverse fixture 1-0, Marquis says Darren Ferguson's side need to get on the front foot early against the Shakers.
He added: "Bury have got a good squad, where they are in the league is probably not a true reflection on what they have to offer and they've gone through a very tough period.
"We're at home and we have to focus on ourselves which is the most important thing, we want to win all of our home games and we see this as one where we can really get at them.
"We need to start making sure the luck goes our way and that we start turning draws into wins, the performances have been good but they've all been in tight games which always leaves you vulnerable if you make a mistake."


Review and Update to the Preliminary Flood Risk Assessment (PFRA) in the second planning cycle has been carried out within the framework of the project POIS.02.01.00-00-0014/16 funded by the Operational Programme Infrastructure and Environment 2014-2020, II Priority Axis: Environmental protection, including adaptation to climate change, Activity 2.1 Adaptation to climate change along with ensuring safety and increasing resilience to natural disasters, in particular, natural disasters and environmental monitoring.

Silicon Metal
Constructions & Support Services
Construction & Construction Support Services
One group. Many opportunities.
As a diversified holding company, most of our Companies have been present in the UAE for more than 30 years. As a group of companies our offices and affiliates mean that we are present from South Africa to Norway and from Lithuania and the UK and various Countries of the Gulf Region to Mauritius, Kenya, Angola, Mozambique and Tanzania.
These are exciting times. Our breadth of services and wealth of experience mean that more projects are now becoming part of an ever-expanding portfolio in both established and new markets. Our presence in Africa grows exponentially. Our mark can also be seen and felt in now iconic locations, like Dubai Marina, Culture Villageand Al Raha Beach in Abu Dhabi and various other Countries where Al-Braik has participated in projects as well as support for the local communities in Mozambique, Sri Lanka, etc.
Our US$240,000,000 Silicon Metal Smelter will be located in Abu Dhabi's KIZAD www.kizad.com, and is another one of our up-and-coming expansion programmes.
Our strength is in our diversification. Our knowledge and expertise has been to the advantage of our projects' outcomes.
The following information on the website details the projects that we have successfully managed, as well as the opportunities only we can provide. From premiere housing construction and development to oil & gas exploration, and from global retail brand procurement to hospitality management, our group of companies is forever evolving, yet focusing solely in its resolve.
Shukri Saleh Alawi Yahya Al Braik
Chairman – Al-Braik Investments LLC.
Shukri Saleh Alawi Yahya Al Braik is a true visionary. A UAE national whose long line of successful enterprises are borne out of a simple philosophy: a great idea – that's all you need.
And ideas have come simply. From multi-million dollar trans-continental business deals to local retail opportunities, Shukri's entrepreneurial spirit has not only affected Al-Braik's success, it runs through every pore of the company, and the Group of Companies it can now boast.
Innovative, charismatic, diplomatic and politically savvy, his story started at the Imperial College, London, where he specialised in his future – Petroleum Engineering. His studies took him to the University of Texas to gain a Masters in Control Engineering.
Even before winning major energy-related projects, Shukri's eye for the opportunities Dubai's ever-changing landscape proposed was ever-ready. He was instrumental in a lot of the city's now world-famous landmarks and sights.
A formidable presence in the energy-related markets, he is often called up to consult with oil operating companies from all over the world on subjects relating to the acquiring of petroleum concessions.
His ideas and his spirit haven't just gone to the benefit of one industry, franchising – in the shape of the company, Edible Arrangements – has also been part of his ever-expanding prowess. He was also shareholder and founder of Bin Ham Oil Services, an independent oil exploration, drilling and well services company in the Gulf.
Shukri represented the UAE National Football team in various world class competitions. He is known for his philanthropic work and contributes enormously to the Group's CSR activities.
" These are exciting times. Al-Braik is gaining strength yearly. The clients we serve, the associates and friends we have accrued over the years are witnessing unprecedented gains – not only in this region, but globally too.
All you need is a good idea. Our web of international partners and collaborators are helping us deliver the kind of competitive advantage in industries that include oil and gas, retail and construction and real estate. Our new venture in the multi-million dollar silicon Metal Project is testimony to our vision to grow within UAE in a global industry. I am pleased that our efforts of the last three or so years will soon translate to real terms with the ground-breaking Silicon Plant at KIZAD.
The secret is change. One thing we've learnt in all the years we've been doing business is that times change, and they change more quickly if you don't. That's why every stakeholder in Al-Braik – including myself – has absolute confidence in our Group of Companies' potential and commitment.
We wouldn't have been able to play such important roles in projects like Dubai Marina and Al Raha Beach in Abu Dhabi, and numerous others in Africa, had we not been able to deliver. And we have, and will continue to do so, time and time again.
I am grateful that we have a team of able professionals in their different fields of expertise. Together, we have lived as one family and supported each other in our quest to achieve the best.
We have done very well down the years. But if there's one thing I can promise you, and that's that the future will bring us the unknown. And that's the most exciting gift of all, for a company like ours. "
Said Mbarak Al Digeil
CEO – Al-Braik Investments LLC.
Said is a Certified Chartered Accountant in the UK and Certified Public Accountant in Kenya. He started his career in the Banking Industry in Mombasa, Kenya, and has now gained invaluable experience and contacts thanks to his charisma and charm – in and outside of the work environment.
Said has contributed substantially in shaping the future of Al-Braik. Experience with multinational companies such as the Mega Pharmaceutical Company - Sterling Health of the US and the Blue Circle Group of UK (Now taken over by La Farge Group) has not only equipped Said with unparalleled knowledge and know-how, but so too an enviable relationships with very important people in both the Middle East and Africa.
His achievements are testament to his personality. Diplomacy and charisma have helped him gain positions of seniority and the chance to help the Al-Braik Investments become what it is today. He founded Al Minwal General Trading in Dubai. His interests extend to more philanthropic organisations too.
In his position as the CEO, Said serves as business adviser to the Group. Championing the business development opportunities and overseeing project management are his day-to-day objectives.
Said an accomplished sportsmen having played in various international competitions. He has come a long way from being Kenya's Best Hockey Player in 1979 and a member of the life changing Outward Bound Mountain School, but it is that same drive and commitment which continues to take Al-Braik ever-forward, and become ever-successful.
" You know, we are successful. We have strong tie-ups in areas of the world where who you know if far more important than what you know. Our businesses and Group of Companies keep going from strength to strength.
But there's a reason for this. Our combined experiences, people skills, knowledge and industry know how are borne out of decades of invention, surprise and commitment to deliver what our affiliates, partners, workers, communities and people deserve.
Al-Braik's commitment to bettering opportunities for all is a goal we all have, and all share.
As Dubai grows and becomes more prosperous, so will we. As the Africa regions in which we operate (some of the fastest growing and most stimulating 'new world' areas on the planet) become more open and strong, then so will we. Mozambique, Angola, Tanzania and Kenya are excellent examples of how a company's (in this case Zarara Oil & Gas) experience with both people and in industry can transform opportunities into real, tangible benefits for both country and company.
But I feel like it's just the start. That's what's exciting about working in predominantly emerging markets. We will commence work soon in the luxury resort in the Mauritius. We are changing Dubai's skyline. We are trading in new market entrants. We are converting opportunities into things to add to our portfolio.
Perhaps the biggest achievement this year, is the realisation of our Silicon Metal Plant which is now heading towards conclusion. A result of 4 years of hard work. Just goes to show how important to believe in what you do and to remain focussed on what you do.
These really are exciting times. I take this opportunity to thank everyone involved. Long may they continue… "

abstract = {In France, as in all European countries, the birth of a first child has been increasingly delayed over time, but the reasons why individuals decide to postpone the time to become a parent still remain to be deeply investigated at the micro level. In this prospective study we analyse fertility preferences and subsequent reproductive behaviour of childless people, and implement a model that uses desires, or intentions, with their related timing, as key covariates. Results show that desired and intended fertility are a strong predictor of subsequent family formation, even after controlling for the effects of other relevant variables, and people become more realistic about their short-term childbearing plans when asked to assess their personal chance to have a future birth. Moreover, highly educated people anticipate their own transition to parenthood more precisely, as compared to low educated people. Age is the most crucial factor determining the probability to remain involuntarily childless in the interval between the surveys, while persistent childlessness is mostly associated with the lack of a partner if it is a consequence of a deliberate choice to postpone childbearing.},

In this prospective study we analyse fertility preferences and subsequent reproductive behaviour of childless people, and implement a model that uses desires, or intentions, with their related timing, as key covariates. Results show that desired and intended fertility are a strong predictor of subsequent family formation, even after controlling for the effects of other relevant variables, and people become more realistic about their short-term childbearing plans when asked to assess their personal chance to have a future birth. Moreover, highly educated people anticipate their own transition to parenthood more precisely, as compared to low educated people. Age is the most crucial factor determining the probability to remain involuntarily childless in the interval between the surveys, while persistent childlessness is mostly associated with the lack of a partner if it is a consequence of a deliberate choice to postpone childbearing.
