Wiltshire Ridgeway walk
Often described as Britain's Oldest Road, the Ridgeway runs for 85 miles (137km) between the chalk hills of Overton Hill, near Avebury and Ivinghoe Beacon in Hertfordshire . The road goes through four English counties and has probably been in use since the time of prehistoric man. The Ridgeway is now very popular with walkers but the stretch that runs through Wiltshire is still remarkably remote. The route crosses the ridge of archaeologically rich downland between Overton Hill in the south west of the county and Uffington White Horse, on the Oxfordshire border. Walk here on the Ridgeway in Wiltshire and you follow in the footsteps of walkers over thousands of years as you travel through the historic landscape.
Starting from the east in Oxfordshire Wantage would be a convenient place to stop the night before you set off on your trek. La Fontana is an Italian family run restaurant with accommodation that's situated on the outskirts Wantage. The 15 spacious bedrooms there are all en-suite and benefit from complimentary wireless broadband internet access. A statue of King Alfred the Great stands in the market place at centre of the town and hints at the rich and ancient history of the region. From Wantage you join the Ridgeway as it enters the Vale of the White Horse. The Uffington White Horse , the grand equine effigy carved into the chalk at White Horse Hill, overlooks the entry of the Ridgeway into Wiltshire. An Iron Age hill fort there guards the area and watches over the ancient highway as it enters Wiltshire from neighbouring Oxfordshire. As you head west you'll pass close to the village of Ashbury. Here you'll find Wayland's Smithy , a Neolithic long barrow and chamber tomb that was fully restored after excavations in the 1960s. You rarely get to see these ancient burial mounds looking as they would have done thousands of years ago so it's worth the short detour for a look. After Wayland's Smithy the Ridgeway passes near to Wanborough , a small Wiltshire village that dates back to at least the fourth century. The parish church of Saint Andrew there has a spire at one end and a tower at the other, making it one of only three parish churches to have this feature in the UK. The village tempts one to tarry a while by offering not only a post office and village shop but also several pubs . If you happen to be in the village on the third Saturday of the month you'll even catch the farmer's market.
As the Ridgeway passes Swindon it also runs close to another site deeply rooted in antiquity. Liddington Castle is the Iron Age hillfort that is thought possibly to have been the site of the Battle of Badon, where the British defeated the invading Saxons between 480 and 500AD and checked their advance for 50 years. Such was the strategic importance of the Ridgeway that many forts and battle sites can be found along its route. Overton Hill is another area boasting a past so distant that we can only guess at what sights it has seen. There are several round barrows (burial mounds) there and it was once home to a wooden circle known as the Sanctuary.The 571 ft (174 m) hill stands at the southern edge of the Marlborough Downs in Wiltshire, England, just west of the village of West Overton and 4.5 miles from the town of Marlborough and marks the one end of the Ridgeway National Trail. Nearby is another famous ancient site at Silbury Hill. The ancient Wiltshire market town of Marlborough is an ideal place to break for food or even an overnight stop. You could leave the Ridgeway where it crosses the A346, near Ogbourne St George and head south into Marlborough. The Ivy House Hotel on the High Street in Marlborough is a grade II listed Georgian building with a 300 year history as well as 28 bedrooms and an award winning restaurant. Oak timbers that predate the coming of the Spanish Armada were used to build the Castle and Ball Hotel and restaurant. Also on the High Street the hotel is located on a plot that's been home to an inn since at least the 15th century.
If you head north back up the A346 after leaving Marlborough you will pick up the Ridgeway near the Ogbourne group of villages. Heading west from there you soon arrive at the site of Barbury Castle . This is another of the many Iron Age hill forts found along the ancient Ridgeway route. The castle, situated on Barbury Hill, is now managed as a country park by Swindon Borough Council. The hill is a local vantage point and can command a view across to the Cotswolds and the River Severn if the weather favours the viewer. The old hill fort features deep defensive ditches that are still clearly visible to the visitor today. After Barbury Hill the Ridgeway swings to the south and heads past Fyfield Down. Part of the Marlborough Downs, Fyfield Down boasts a collection of sarsen stones known locally as Grey Wethers. They stand just 1.5 miles north of the village of Fyfield in an area now designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI).
To the west of Marlborough and Fyfield is Avebury. Situated just a few miles from the Ridgeway, Avebury is on one of Britain's most important ancient sites. The famous standing stones at Avebury are just the still visible part of a much larger site that itself sits within an array of prehistoric sites, barrows and avenues. The ancient manor house at Avebury is worth visiting. The buildings that make up the house date from the early 16th century, but has Queen Anne alterations and underwent an Edwardian renovation. Ancient walls and clipped box hedges in the garden create outdoor 'rooms' there and it is an excellent place to take a picnic in good weather. The Old Forge bed and breakfast is in East Kennet, Avebury, and was once a smithy. Dates back to the 1860s it is now a four-star bed and breakfast with spacious rooms and makes an ideal place stay at the end of your short trip along the Ridgeway.

This is Cox Bay on Lake Joseph which is not far from Port Sandfield in Muskoka. You can see how much the water level has dropped, maybe down about a foot. I believe this is in anticipation of the spring melt. Please click on the image or HERE for a much larger sized photo.
Boat houses on Lake Rosseau in Muskoka.
One of the key attributes of Muskoka are the numerous boathouses nestled in on the shorelines. I don't believe there is anything else like this in the world. They can range from little one slip shacks to gigantic mansions with helicopter pads. Many of them offer a deep and interesting history. Whether its a summer home to a previous US President, Hollywood movie star, designs by a famous architects or a property that dates back to the 1800's they are all interesting to see.
People are always asking to see more of these boathouses so I will make an attempt to include them as I travel throughout the lakes.
Its surprising how many new boathouses you will notice after the ice thaws. Building boathouses during the winter time is easier and also provides for employment in a time of year where everything is usually dead quiet. Muskoka is world famous for its boathouses. Here is an example of a new one going up on Lake Joseph as you head north out of Port Sandfield.
The ice-out bubblers and illuminated warning signs are installed. I noticed the water levels to be high for this time of year. I like to have the ice cleared from forming around boathouses and docks. The Ministry will drop the lake levels on some lakes at some point leaving tons of ice hanging which can cause serious structural damage. Sledders and people out on the ice need to be properly warned of these open and dangerous areas.
There is without question some beautifully designed cottages and boathouses on the Muskoka Lakes. Here is a photo of a newly built boathouse on Lake Joseph across from the Lake Joe Club in Port Sandfield. It is built on one of the lots that were created from the tear down of the historic Marygrove or Glen Home Hotel.
I would like to thank the owners of this boathouse, whomever you are. While traveling down the Joe River recently with a group including kids we got caught in a wicked thunder, lightning and torrential rain storm. It came upon us so quickly with the lightning blasting around us! The wind and rain blew so hard I couldn't dock the boat so I ended up jumping in the lake and pulling the boat in. Just as we landed another boat arrived with 4 teenagers that were visibly shaken. Fortunately the boathouse was open as we waited for the storm to clear. Someone from the cottage came down later to see if we were OK. Our apologies for the intrusion and thank you for the shelter!
Out on the water I had a difficult time finding fall colors since the shorelines are predominately lined in mature conifers. While passing through Port Sandfield I noticed this small bay dotted with boathouses with a semblance of color. Shooting with an ultra-wide angled Nikkor 14-24 lens produced this panoramic type shot. Please click for a larger 2048p sized photo.
Is Muskoka the Hamptons of the north?
I recently gave permission to a website called Classic Driver to use some of my photos for an article they published about Muskoka. The article goes on to suggest that Muskoka is the Hamptons of the north. I guess in some ways people see Muskoka in this capacity with the extravagant lake houses and boathouses on the big three lakes. Having a few celebs, sports stars and wealthy business people is only a tiny part of Muskoka. They are here amongst the many thousands of others because they enjoy the natural beauty and all it has to offer. I certainly don't see people hunting for celebrities with cameras in hand and hope I never do.
This past weekend I had the privilege to board the RMS Segwun steamship and take part in the 100 Mile Cruise. This historic event was the highlight of the summer in Muskoka and will provide enduring memories for many years. Here are a few pics of the journey which departed Gravenhurst at 8:30am and returned 12 hours later. Please click on each photo to get a 1600 pixel shot.
There was a very large crowd waiting for us as we entered the Port Carling locks. The Wenonah II steamship was following closely behind us.
Looking out from the Port Carling locks to the Lake Rosseau side.
There were many cottages and boathouses crammed with people cheering us on as we passed the shorelines.
Arriving in Port Sandfield at the swing bridge was astounding with more large crowds greeting us and taking photos. As we passed through the channel you could see an amazing flotilla of wooden boats waiting to join us.
This is the Wenonah II passing through Port Sandfield with other boats starting to tag along for the journey.
A large number of the most beautiful vintage boats toured alongside of us. It was breathtaking to see just how many there were. Unfortunately I was not able to recreate the scale of it through photos from one ship. When the aerial photos come out you will see how grand the entire event was.
Take me to your Captain. I had the opportunity to go up on the bridge and visit the Captain and navigator. Very cool people with nerves of steel.
The final destination was up on Little Lake Joseph. I was surprised the route we took as I have often taken my own boat through here and you need to be very careful of the shallow water. I had heard the Captain had spent the day before testing depths for this journey. At the end of the Bay in Little Joe is a large cliff once called the Natural Park where the steamship would stop and let people out for a walk. Today it is private property. At this point the entire flotilla of boats jockeyed around the two steamships while helicopters zoomed bove taking aerial footage of this remarkable event.
I shot this photo off the bow of the Segwun as we passed through Port Sandfield heading back towards Port Carling in the late afternoon. We were just about to be called to the dining room for a great dinner.
The RMS Segwun returning home after a very long day. I'm just glad I didn't have to shovel the coal.
With the recent extreme temps I have been spending quite a bit of time on the water. While driving up the eastern side of Rosseau I spotted this interesting boathouse on a magnificent point of land.
Each and every cottage and boathouse in Muskoka has a story behind it. The family history, the architecture, who has owned it, etc. I don't know anything about this one other than it being unique. More Eye Candy on the Lakes.
Last week (Weds June 9, 2011) we had quite a wicked storm roll through Muskoka. Many trees were uprooted and a few Lake Muskoka cottages and boathouses sustained severe damage. I talked with someone today who was without power for 3 days and another who couldn't get out of their road for 2 days because of the amount of fallen trees. It's a different world up here.
This is a shot I took just before sundown on Lake Joseph looking towards Crane Island. With the unseasonable weather there has not been many boats on the lakes or people around the towns. Its a bit quiet. Even the real estate market is much quieter compared to previous years. Its funny how the weather impacts our behavioral patterns.


All of this was in an effort to overhaul how I was handling AI navigation. Previously AIs were only able to keep one thing in mind at a time.
For example – they would see a ball and would move towards it. If an enemy got close, the AI would register the enemy's presence via a OnTriggerEnter and change it's behavior accordingly – the enemy would become the target of it's attention and it would flee, completely forgetting about the ball until it was safe to try again.
This worked, but could feel mechanical at times and was seriously limiting – what if I wanted the AI to convey despair by really needing the ball, but being afraid of the enemy at the same time? Or how could I try to lure the player away from a place of safety? Now I can do these things and more.
The first thing I used the new navigation for was in trying to make an AI feel playful.
This is very much in line with something I wrote on a previous DevLog – about how interacting with AIs was mostly trying to figure out how they behaved so the player could use them. That would be in the opposite direction of the game I'm after and could lead to a lot of frustration. Stripping away that mechanical problem solving should make them feel more like living entities and less like tools or resources to be exploited.
I'm also considering switching from a orthographic camera to a perspective one.
I like the aesthetic of an ortho camera and it would enable me to cheat with some 2D world assets. But a perspective camera is much more efective at placing you in the world and I do want the player to feel immersed. So perspective it is. Probably.
Towards the end of the week I started looking into procedural world generation. I could spawn a bunch of world objects in random places but that would neither look natural nor give me enough control to create a sense of place defined by rules. I was looking into using array lists with perlin noise when it became clear it was too big a task and for now I can just place things by hand if necessary.
I've also began working on a new energy system. Right now it looks like just a run button but the intent is for it to do a lot more than that based on context.
Not sure what problems having movable boxes would solve but I added some anyway.
… Next time I may add some boxes that act more like boxes.

In court documents filed last night, the Competitive Enterprise Institute argues that NASA has gone out of its way to avoid turning over records that show the agency reverse-engineered temperature data to better make the case that the planet is becoming warmer.
CEI, which is being represented by Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher's Andrew Tulumello, argues in a pleading filed in Washington federal court that NASA's request for summary judgment in the Freedom of Information Act suit against the agency should be denied because e-mails and other evidence turned over by NASA suggest that there are additional records that are being withheld.
"Rather than deal forthrightly with a FOIA request on these issues, NASA has engaged in obstruction and delay," Tulumello writes in the court filing, which was filed late last night in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.
CEI argues in the Nov. 3 motion that NASA has additional e-mails and documents on separate servers that relate to changes made to temperature data, but has failed to turn them over. CEI also argues that Dr. James Hansen, the director of NASA's Goddard Institute of Space Studies, and Dr. Gavin Schmidt, a climatologist and climate modeler at Goddard, used third-party Web sites and e-mail addresses to avoid having those records appear on NASA's servers.
"The e-mails among the NASA scientists working on this project reflect a conscious choice to keep the final explanation off of NASA's servers," Tulumello writes.
NASA, which is being represented by Julie Straus, a trial attorney in the Justice Department's Civil Division, requested summary judgment in the case on Sept. 20, arguing that CEI already has access to the data it is trying to obtain and that CEI's FOIA requests don't seek computer programs and data files. NASA contends that CEI's FOIA requests only sought "records, documents, and international communications" related to the alleged changes to temperature data.
"[T]he Agency had no obligation under the FOIA to search Dr. Schmidt's email correspondence, nor to release to Plaintiff any of Dr. Schmidt's emails. Even so, on December 29, 2009, and July 9, 2010, the Agency, in its discretion, did release to Plaintiff copies of those emails of Dr. Schmidt's that pertain to the subject matter sought by Plaintiff's request," Straus wrote in the motion for summary judgment.
CEI filed suit against NASA in May, alleging that in 2007 and 2008, it submitted, but has not yet received adequate responses to, FOIA requests seeking NASA documents related to changes made to NASA's temperature data in response to questions raised by statistician Steven McIntyre. McIntyre runs Climate Audit, a blog devoted to the analysis and discussion of climate data.
CEI argues that McIntyre discovered errors in NASA's data that resulted in an overstatement of the amount that temperatures have risen in the United States since 2000. Those allegedly erroneous data, CEI says, have been used by Goddard to make claims in the media that temperatures in the United States have risen dramatically during the past 10 years. Among those claims was that 1998 was the "hottest" year on record.
As pointed out in CEI's court filings, Hansen is also known as an environmental activist. In September, Hansen was one of 100 people arrested in front of the White House while engaging in a protest against mountaintop removal mining.
NASA has two weeks to respond to CEI's opposition to the motion for summary judgment. If summary judgment is denied by Judge Richard Roberts, the case would proceed to discovery.


According to my Aunty Dora, who's old enough to know, the legendary Colombo eatery, Green Cabin (453, Galle Road, Colombo 3 — Phone: 588811 or 591841), and its sister restaurant The Pagoda Tea Room (105 Chatham St., Fort, Colombo 1 — 011 232 5252)have been feeding hungry Colombo residents for a long time. In fact, if I'm not mistaken, I saw a sign saying that the Cabin is celebrating 127 years, which means it was founded in 1884, making it arguably one of the cities oldest dining establishments.
I, for one, remember coming here as a mere tot for short eats, cake, and their famous chocolate eclairs. Later on, when I was old enough to appreciate iced-coffee, this was the place of choice. It was only rather recently that I ate a full rice and curry mal in their garden, a small oasis of calm in bustling Bambalapitya. I also used to come here for lampreis for lunch, though I think the quality of their lampreis is slipping. But whatever you say about Green Cabin, they are an original, and while plenty of new chains have cropped up to provide competition—including The Fab and Caravan Fresh—I still prefer the short eats and iced coffee at Green Cabin (with Perara & Sons as a close second). Not only do they have such a wide selection, but according to my cousin they are all made fresh in house. The same Rodrigo family also runs both spots as they always have, according to my aunt. In this age of big chains, you've just got to love a mom & pop shop where you can still get good food and good service as well as a little piece of history to boot. I managed to get a shot of most of the savory short eats on sale that day, but the stock changes daily. Also, they had a lot more whole cakes and sweet items, but unfortunately, no eclairs!
can't forget the ice coffee!
Yum… you can't beat the taste of their chocolate cake!
And the cream bun and the eclair!
dear god !! look at the prices !!! that is a shocker !!!
If i lived in Colombo I would not be bale to afford that !!
You do realize, of course, that these prices are in rupees? That makes most of these short eats well under a dollar each.
Green cabin and Fab short eats are the best. Always fresh and tasty.

How making fresh pumpkin puree got me to prepare Vietnamese Nuoc Cham Sauce is like six degrees of separation from Kevin Bacon.
A) Can't find Libby's canned pumpkin. B) Buy fresh pumpkins, roast and puree. C) Cook some sweet things with the puree, burn out, a good supply still in the freezer. D) Decide to make Pumpkin Soup. E) Larry crinkles nose. S'cuuuuze me. F) Having been to Asia six or seven times, I choose Vietnamese Pumpkin Soup; ought to get Larry approval. G) Google, find numerous Asian flavored soups, so I combine several to match what we like eat, notice one ingredient: Nuoc Cham Sauce. H) We live in ethnic hot pot LA, yet Ralphs has no Nuoc Cham. I) Decide to make the damn sauce so I can make the yummy soup. Easier than imagined!
So, here is Nuoc Cham Sauce. Make some spring rolls and start dipping.
Whisk together in a bowl. Makes 1 cup sauce.
Handmade lantern stand in Hoi An, Vietnam, Christmas 2008.
Patti, nice seeing you on Monday! Re this recipe – so you had no Nuac Cham but did have fish sauce in your pantry? I would have to buy some and would probably find it ready made at my local Jon's Market. Could you substitute anchovy paste instead? If so, how much? Love to Snidely and the kitty.
Patti comments: Yes, I had the fish sauce. I've never used anchovy paste, however. Fish sauce comes in handy for flavoring my noodle bowl soups.
Your thought process reminds me a lot of mine. I love Vietnamese nuoc cham and had no idea how easy it was to make. I live alone, but I'm guessing if my boyfriend lived with me he would have OD'ed on apples because I picked far too many this year and have been putting them in everything.

Q: How to get the stemming highlights in Mark.JS? I have working pieces of code:
PHP:
$conn = new PDO('mysql:host=ubuntu;port=9306;charset=utf8','','');
$query = $conn->quote($_GET['query']);
 $sql = "SELECT *,SNIPPET(content,$query) AS `snippet` FROM `test1` WHERE  MATCH($query)";

foreach ($conn->query($sql) as $info) {
     echo $info['snippet']. "

";
}

$_SESSION['phrase'] = $query; // Only 1 word here now (or phrase with space), while need in array.

and JS:
markInstance = new Mark(textCont);
markInstance.mark(phrase, {}); // from $_SESSION['phrase']
highlighted = [...textCont.querySelectorAll('mark')];
positions = highlighted.map(el => el.offsetTop);

I have a few different highlighted words in snippet output (stemming). But only one from them highlights by Mark.JS.
I want to use all founded stems as highlighted words in html file too.  How I could use stemming result from Sphinx in Mark.js ?

A: ok, so you need to implement stemming support in Mark.js somehow. Maybe with something like
https://github.com/MarkKahn/stem as inspiration
... uses a lot of regular expressions so perhaps can implment them as regula expression highlighting in mark.js.
(forget that the stemming capablity in sphinx as such, not sure its any direct use (other than to imply its POSSIBLE to implement). You can't use sphinxes engine within mark.js directly)

The human nervous system is also the central intelligence system within the body. It comes with a lot of complications also if not taken care.
Headaches are the most notorious turmoils of the human nervous system according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Their statistics for the last year show that approximately 47% of the human population suffers from at least one headache.
In this article, the headache chart will help you understand types of a headache, symptoms, precipitating factors, headache treatment, and prevention.
One should not ignore headaches nor should it be taken lightly. They can cause nervous breakdown and gradually degrade the person's quality of life. They are capable of hitting personal and professional relationships in a distressful way.
If not treated in time they can become your highway to other illnesses. Different people can have their own variations of symptoms, occur for distinctive reasons, and require different kinds of cure.
Once you identify the nature of a headache you have, you could easily find the right treatment option.
Thanks to modern science, we can now identify a variety of headaches and headache locations. The most familiar types are tension-type headaches, migraines, and cluster headaches. The human race has become a victim of this internal catastrophe making it a global health concern.
What are Headache Locations? What Do They Mean? What does the location of your headache mean?
The causes for pain front of your head can be something different than a pain in the temples, or in the back or right in the middle of your head.
They are the most regular form of a headache among adults and teens. They cause mild to moderate pain and come and go over time and usually have no other symptoms.
This form of a headache is the quite common and frequent in adults and teens. They happen to develop mild to moderate pain occurring frequently and show no other symptoms.
Women are likely to suffer from this form of a headache compared to men. Tension-type headaches may cause due to anxiety or by muscle irritation in the neck.
Folks who put up with these types of headaches time and again report pressure or tightness around their head.
People who suffer from migraines go through intense headaches. You may experience hammering, agonizing pain in your head.
These symptoms can last from 4 hours to 3 days and habitually happen one to four times per month. They don't go well with any physical activity.
People report other symptoms along with this pain. The quite common dilemma brought up are sensitivity to light, noise, or smells; nausea or vomiting; loss of appetite; and upset stomach or abdominal pain.
When an adolescent has a migraine, he/she may appear pale, experience dizziness, and have blurry vision, fever, and an upset stomach.
Cluster headaches are somewhat exceptional, disturbing men more than women. Cluster headaches develop in people above the age of 20.
They are illustrated as an extreme headache or agonizing. Pain around the eye tearing and redness are common evils that tag along Cluster Headaches.
They're termed "cluster headaches" since they tend to occur in groups. One might get them one to three times per day during a cluster period, which may last two weeks to 3 months.
Each headache attack grows from 15 mins to 3 hours and often wakens the person from sleep. The headaches may vanish entirely (go into "remission") for months or years, only to reoccur.
surrounding tissue. Liquids (including broth). Consumption of fructose (honey, tomato juice are good sources) to help burn alcohol. Drink alcohol only in moderation.
quantities of caffeine. Caffeine. In extreme cases, treat by terminating caffeine consumption. Avoiding excess use of caffeine.
indicated. Alternative forms of exercise. Avoid jarring exercises.
Post‐Traumatic Headaches Localized or generalized pain can mimic migraine or tension‐type headache symptoms. Headaches usually occur on daily basis and are frequently resistant to treatment. Pain can occur after relatively minor traumas. Cause of pain is often difficult to diagnose. Possible treatment by use of anti-inflammatory drugs, propranolol, or biofeedback. Standard precautions against trauma.
missing a meal. Strenuous dieting or skipping meals. Regular, nourishing meals containing adequate protein and complex carbohydrates. Same as treatment.
Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Headaches A muscle‐contraction type of pain, sometimes accompanied by a painful "clicking" sound on opening the jaw. An infrequent cause of a headache. Caused by malocclusion (poor bite), stress, and jaw clenching. Relaxation, biofeedback, use of bite plate. In extreme cases, correction of malocclusion. Same as treatment.
Tic Douloureux Headaches Short, jabs like the pain in trigger areas found in the face around the mouth or jaw. Frequency and longevity of pain vary. Relatively rare disease of the neural impulses; more common in women after age 55. Cause unknown. Pain from chewing, cold air, touching face. If under age 55, may result from neurological diseases, such as MS. Anticonvulsants and muscle relaxants. Neurosurgery. None.
vessels of the head. Caused by infection. Aspirin, acetaminophen, NSAIDs, antibiotics. None.
Arthritis Headaches Pain in the back of head or neck. Intensifies on movement. Caused by inflammation of the blood vessels of the head or bony changes in the structures of the neck. Cause of pain is unknown. Anti‐inflammatory drugs, muscle relaxants. None.
astigmatism. Correction of vision. Same as treatment.
Temporal Arteritis A boring, burning, or jabbing pain caused by inflammation of the temporal arteries.
Pain, often around the ear, on chewing. Weight loss, eyesight problems. Rarely affects people under 50. The cause is unknown. Maybe due to an immune disorder. Steroids after diagnosis. Confirmed by biopsy. None.
Tumor Headache Pain progressively worsens, projectile vomiting, possible visual disturbances speech or personality changes; problems with equilibrium, gait, or coordination; seizures. Extremely rare condition. Cause of tumor is usually unknown. If discovered early, treat with surgery or newer radiological methods. None.
prescription analgesics. Avoidance of stress. Use of biofeedback, relaxation techniques or antidepressant medication.
Migraine without Aura Severe, one‐sided throbbing pain, often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, cold hands, sensitivity to sound and light. Certain foods, the Pill or menopausal hormones, excessive hunger, changes in altitude, weather, lights, excessive smoking, and emotional stress.
Migraine with Aura Similar to a migraine without aura, except warning symptoms, develop. May include visual disturbances, numbness in arm or leg.
Warning symptoms subside within a one‐half hour, followed by severe pain. Same as a migraine without aura. At the earliest onset of symptoms, treat using biofeedback, ergotamine, dihydroergotamine or a 5‐HT agonist. Once pain has begun, treatment is identical to a migraine without aura. Prevent with same techniques as a migraine without aura.
Cluster Headaches Excruciating pain in the vicinity of the eye. Tearing of eye, nose congestion, flushing of the face. Pain frequently develops during sleep and may last for several hours. Attacks occur every day for weeks/month, then disappear for up to a year. 80% of cluster patients are male, most ages 20‐50. Alcoholic beverages, excessive smoking. Oxygen, ergotamine, sumatriptan or intranasal application of local anesthetic agent. Use of steroids, ergotamine, calcium channel blockers and lithium.
Menstrual Headaches Migraine‐type pain that occurs shortly before, during, or immediately after menstruation or at mid‐cycle (at time of ovulation). Variances in estrogen levels. Same treatment as a migraine. Small doses of vasoconstrictors and/or anti‐inflammatory drugs before and during menstrual period may prevent headaches.
Hypertension Headaches Generalized or "hairband" type pain, most severe in the morning. Diminishes throughout the day. Severe hypertension: over 200 systolic and 110 diastolic. Treat with appropriate blood pressure medication. To prevent, keep blood pressure under control.
becomes unconscious. Congenital tendency. Extreme hypertension. If an aneurysm is discovered early, treat with surgery. To prevent, keep blood pressure under control.
Sinus Headaches Gnawing pain over the nasal area, often increasing in severity throughout the day. Caused by acute infection, usually with fever, producing blockage of sinus ducts and preventing normal drainage. Sinus headaches are rare.
origin. Infection, nasal polyps, anatomical deformities, such as a deviated septum, that block the sinus ducts. Treat with antibiotics, decongestants, surgical drainage if necessary. None.
What's to blame for your headache? May perhaps be your favorite food? Less sleep? Here are some reasons just help you figure out the culprit.
In a study, researchers found that obese people (a body mass index of 30) had a 35% greater threat of headaches than those with a lower BMI. Severe obesity (BMI of 40) upped the chances to 80%.
Few traits, including being inflexible, reserved, and fanatical may make you headache-prone. If that seems like you, it's time for relaxation therapies.
It's not just arguing over paint colors that can give you a headache; fumes from traditional paints can trigger pain.
One of the signs of dehydration is a headache, along with bitter mood, dropped energy levels, and failure to focus. Rather than gulping water in direct form, try getting more water from the foods you eat, says John La Puma, MD, author of ChefMD's Big Book of Culinary Medicine.
"I'd love it if people got more water from eating fruits and vegetables because then they'd get all the other good things that come with them," he says.
We know you're busy, but hunger is a common headache trigger. So keep your stomach filled with an adequate amount of healthy food and juices. Drink water frequently.
Finally, when you have identified the culprit, and you're getting treatment, you should stay away from the things that prompt your problem, like foods or smells.
Stick to healthy habits that will make you feel good, like a regular workout, sufficient sleep, and a healthy diet.
Additionally, keep up with your follow-up arrangements so your doctor can gauge your progress and make changes if required.

Nate Chai and Rob Aalders discuss five practical ways to provide amazing value to everyone.
Value add is a key component of our recently released book – social magnetism. A book full of insights on how you can create great connections which will ultimately enable you to be successful in any endeavour. In this discussion between entrepreneur, Rob Aalders and Nate Chai, Rob shares his secret sauce on a foundational component of social magnetism – how to add value.
For many reasons beyond the scope of this article, the ability to add value is an unnatural skill for many. However Rob, a master communicator, shares several easy to implement strategies on how you can add value today.
This interview was taken at the JT Foxx family reunion (now Mega Success event) for wealthy entrepreneurs and business people.
Should you have a slow internet connection or cannot hear the interview, you will find a summary of Rob's value add tips below the video. However, we do recommend you watch and listen to Rob as there are more in-depth insights and learnings than our notes provide.
One powerful story Rob shared in the interview was the tale of a difficult business meeting. Rob had to get his suppliers to make costly changes to their delivery models, so he invited them all to an event. Now, business negotiations can be stressful for everyone involved, particularly when one party demands a change to the status quo.
However, Rob knew this was to be a difficult meeting, so during the negotiations, he had each supplier's cars washed and waxed. Imagine how these suppliers felt when they left the event and saw their cars looking beautifully shiny. Instantly they understood that Rob's business was focussed on long-term relations and that their intention was to provide value to their suppliers.
Whenever you have a difficult conversation or meeting with your clients (or even people close to you) remember to leave them on a high. There's an old saying that goes something like, "People don't really remember what you say, or even how you say something. They remember how you made them feel".
You're dealing with a breathing human being. Stop thinking about bills you have to pay, the commission you'll earn, or the holiday that you want to go on. Start thinking about how you can help this person achieve whatever it is that they are looking to achieve.
An example of this mindset is Apple's iPod. On the surface, it seems like a device that plays music. However, the iPod was actually a "pay for what they eat service" so instead of buying an entire album, they could purchase just the songs they wanted. Similarly, the iPod enabled artists to receive greater royalties by providing another platform for them to release their music on.
When you have a conversation, look at all the ways you can help the person you're talking to. Also, think about how this person can provide value to others, everyone appreciates a great referral.
Rob's transformational philosophy also applies outside of the business world. During the interview, he shared two of his rules that he uses in his day-to-day life.
Rob's three-second rule is, "When you meet somebody, you have three seconds to change their state in a more positive way".
When you meet someone, you have three seconds to make their day better. This may be a simple smile, compliment, or a wink of your eye. The point is that you've changed the way that they're feeling and given them a little positivity boost to help them through their day.
One key way Rob practices his philosophy is to appreciate the people that ensure that everything works the way it should. This could be a waiter that brings you water in a restaurant, the cashier at the supermarket that scans your shopping, or anyone that makes your day go that bit smoother.
These people have given up their time to ensure your life is enhanced. When practising gratitude and appreciating these small gestures, you create win-win scenarios that add to everyone's happiness.
Through sharing your energy (be it a simple wink, or getting someone's car valeted) you provide value to others. Once your mindset shifts into that of servitude, your social magnetism is magnified tremendously. By helping others live happier lives, you create value for others which increases your value to everyone.

Home Blog Bath, England The Perfect Weekend Escape
Bath, England The Perfect Weekend Escape
The whole Island feels old, the British Isles, is famed for the aura that they give off, an aura that is both dreary and beautiful.
Rolling hills are flanked with outcrops of moss covered rocks, and flocks of sheep roam in fenced pastures, while stone homes dot the landscape, and it is something that looks and feels as if out of a fairy tale; the English countryside has a unique charm and feels that is its own.
Anyone traveling to the U.K., which has many travelers, should get out and visit the countryside even if only for a day. There are plenty of options for great towns and cities, York, Bath, Cornwall, Brighton, and Norfolk.
I found the star of the bunch to be Bath. When selecting a weekend get-away from London, Bath becomes an easy decision for convenience, price, culture, and ambiance. The city is a well-preserved treasure of Georgian architecture that is complemented by trendy shopping piazzas and a Roman bath that still holds thermal waters. The Roman bath is the largest draw of the city and where the cities namesake comes from.
As to the Georgian architecture, The Grand Royal Crescent showcases Georgian Architecture at its peak. With three Michelin starred restaurants in the area, charming English cafes, chic bars, and plenty of classic English pubs finding something to eat in the city is anything, but a struggle. Upon arrival it becomes easy to understand why Jane Austen set two of her six published books in Bath, even living in the city for 5 years herself.

The city once served as a weekend getaway for the British aristocracy coming from London, and it is still convenient to do so. Travel to Bath can also be very affordable.
Coaches from London can be had for several quid and take only a couple of hours to Bath. Located in the center of Somerset region, is surrounded by a region rich in heritage, natural landscapes, and food.
Euphoria in classic Roman Baths
The Roman Baths are a key attraction. Still fed by a natural hot spring spitting out water at a steamy 46 C it's not difficult to imagine what it was like back in ancient times. Attached to the Roman baths is the "Pump Room," a restaurant now serving afternoon tea, and even some of the mineral spring water. Built in 70 AD the ruins are now considered to be one the best preserved Roman ruins in the world. Entry into the museum truly transports visitors to a steamy ancient Roman Bath, providing a true immersion to the former days of an empire.

Having afternoon tea is pretty much the quintessential English experience, and an experience all should have. Bath has a wide selection of tea houses to select from, offering all the dainty sandwiches and scones you can eat. Don't forget a lashing of clotted cream.
As mentioned before the having tea at the Pump Room is a classic affair in Bath. They offer a wide selection of loose leaf teas to select from, and scones with a lashing of clotted cream. It dates back to the Georgian period and has remained the place to have tea when visiting Bath.
Sally Lunns
If you're looking for a class establishment to have your afternoon tea you can not go wrong with Sally Lunns. Located in the one of the oldest buildings in Bath Sally Lunns lives up to its famous reputation. The draw here is for their famous Sally Lunn buns, a cross between brioche bread and a bun. They offer selections such as walnut butter, dulce de leche milk jam, and Ivy House clotted cream.

Bea's Vintage Tearoom
Located right next to Bath's Assembly Room and the Fashion Museum, the tearoom is right at the center of town. The interior is decorated with old Wartime Posters, patterned tablecloths, and delicate tea sets. Have a generous helping of some jam and clotted cream with your scone while enjoying the positively English atmosphere.
Reaching out above the Roman baths is the wonderful Bath Abbey, known for being one of the last grand cathedrals to be built in U.K., check out the western side to find angels climbing up and down ladders depicting a dream had by the founding bishop. The Abbey was constructed in the 12th century and is a terrific embodiment of perpendicular Gothic architecture. A key focal point of the cathedral is its unique fan vaulting ceiling found only in a handful of historical buildings still standing in England.
Georgian Architecture Abounds
Another must see is the Pulteney Bridge and weir, two beautiful pieces of architecture, both of which are UNESCO World Heritage sites. It features shops on both sides and spans across the Avon River. The best views are had from perusing the shops and catching glimpses out the windows.
While the waterside park offers a view of the bridge overlooking the weir. For those that are movie buffs, the weir is where Javert, in Tom Hooper's Les Miserables, takes his life by plunging into the water feature below.
Other must-see sites are the Royal crescent, Victoria Park (my favorite), The Bath Assembly Rooms, the Fashion Museum, and Prior Park. The shopping in the city is unrivaled, although they aren't anything special it was the first time I walked into both a lush and H&M (the jacket I was wearing when I met Tasha came from here, and she just learned that reading this). To me as an American, it reminded me of Charleston with great food, and beautiful promenades with plenty of shopping. There are plenty of boutique shops to go window-shopping here, but those of us on a budget it's probably best to just enjoy the sites of fashion.
After a day of wandering around the city, it's great to settle down and have a pint in one of the many pubs spread throughout the city. Bath is positively English, charming, and unique, I would say a must for anyone with the time or desire to visit to do so. With the close proximity to London makes it only make it that much more appealing.

U.S. President Barack Obama shakes hands with Russian President Vladimir Putin during their meeting at the United Nations General Assembly in New York September 28, 2015.
The United States said on Monday it was willing to cooperate with Russia, as well as Iran, to try to end the Syrian civil war, but the two big powers clashed over whether to work with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
Russian President Vladimir Putin, in contrast, told the gathering of world leaders that there was no alternative to cooperating with Assad's military in an effort to defeat the Islamic State militant group, which has seized parts of Syria and neighboring Iraq.
"The United States is prepared to work with any nation, including Russia and Iran, to resolve the conflict," Obama, who spoke before Putin, told the General Assembly. "But we must recognize that there cannot be, after so much bloodshed, so much carnage, a return to the prewar status quo."
Obama did not explicitly call for Assad's ouster and he suggested there could be a "managed transition" away from his rule, the latest sign that despite U.S. animus toward the Syrian leader it was willing to see him stay for some period of time.
He dismissed the argument that authoritarianism was the only way to combat groups such as Islamic State, saying: "In accordance with this logic, we should support tyrants like Bashar al-Assad, who drops barrel bombs to massacre innocent children, because the alternative is surely worse."
Russian President Vladimir Putin and U.S. President Barack Obama share a toast during the luncheon at the United Nations General Assembly in New York September 28, 2015.
"We think it is an enormous mistake to refuse to cooperate with the Syrian government and its armed forces who are valiantly fighting terrorism face to face," Putin said during his speech before the U.N. General Assembly.
"We should finally acknowledge that no one but President Assad's armed forces and (Kurdish) militia are truly fighting the Islamic State and other terrorist organizations in Syria," he said.
Tehran has armed the Syrian government and, through its backing of Lebanese Hezbollah fighters, has helped Assad combat rebels seeking to end his family's four-decade rule. Russia has started a military buildup in Syria, where it has a naval base that serves as its foothold in the Middle East.
U.S. officials say they believe Putin's buildup of Russian forces, including tanks and warplanes, in Syria mainly reflects Moscow's fear that Assad's grip might be weakening and a desire to shore him up to retain Russian influence in the region.
They also see it as a way for Putin to try to project Russian influence more widely, a goal he appeared to achieve on Sunday with Iraq's announcement that Russia, Iran, Syria and the Iraqi government were sharing intelligence on Syria.
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, in his speech to the General Assembly, blamed terrorism on what he characterized as U.S. occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan and Washington's support for Israel "against the oppressed nation of Palestine." Rouhani said Iran was ready to help bring democracy to Syria and Yemen, another war zone in the region, where Iran backs Houthi rebels.
"We cannot stand by when the sovereignty and territorial integrity of a nation is flagrantly violated," he said. "If it happens without consequences in Ukraine, it can happen to any nation here today. That's the basis of the sanctions that the United States and our partners impose on Russia, it's not a desire to return to a cold war."
Putin, however, told the 193-nation General Assembly that the crisis in Ukraine was the result of "a military coup ... orchestrated from outside." He was alluding to Russian allegations, denied by the United States, that Washington was behind the 2014 ouster of Ukraine's former pro-Russian president.
Putin also complained that unilateral sanctions, such as the U.S. and European Union measures against Russia over Ukraine, were not only illegal but "a means of eliminating competitors."

Why Joan From The Chair Looks So Familiar
By Jim Rowley/Aug. 23, 2021 5:12 pm EST
"The Chair" is the latest Netflix series that's been blowing up the Internet since it premiered on August 20, 2021. In it, Sandra Oh stars as Dr. Ji-Yoon Kim, a former English professor who gets promoted to department chair at the fictional Pembroke University and soon finds herself navigating both the challenges of running an institute of higher learning in 2021, as well as managing her colleagues' quirky personalities. Currently, "The Chair" enjoys an 85% fresh critics' score on Rotten Tomatoes, and an 81% rating among the fans. The Atlantic called it the best Netflix drama in years.
One of the first season's strongest characters is Dr. Joan Hambling. She's a Chaucer scholar more than 30 years into her career, and almost immediately, Dr. Kim is pressured to push Dr. Hambling out. Like Dr. Kim, Dr. Hambling faces constant sexism in her career. But Dr. Hambling is long past the point of playing nice — and instead starts to fight back.
Joan is played by actress Holland Taylor. Born in 1943, Taylor began her acting career on Broadway in the 60s and 70s, landing her first TV role in 1969. Since her Hollywood career kicked off in 1980, she's received more than 120 acting credits, and she's one of those actresses who's seemingly been in everything (via The Famous People). Traditionally, she's most well-known for playing domineering alpha-types, so Dr. Hambling is a bit of a departure from her usual roles.
Here's where you may know her from.
She was a sitcom mainstay in the 80s and 90s
Holland Taylor has appeared in many comedies and dramas over her career. But she first made her mark on sitcoms in the 1980s and 1990s. Taylor had pursued TV and film opportunities for about 15 years before being cast on the ABC sitcom "Bosom Buddies" as Ruth Dunbar, the sassy boss to leads Kip (Tom Hanks) and Henry (Peter Scolari), via CBS News. The show ran from 1980 to 1982.
"Bosom Buddies" led to several more sitcom appearances for Taylor, including many starring roles. In 1990, she was one of the series leads on "Going Places," the ABC series about four young writers who get jobs working for a nightmare of a producer, played by Taylor. From 1992-93, she was a co-lead on Norman Lear's political satire "The Powers That Be" alongside John Forsyth and David Hyde Pierce.
Taylor's other earlier sitcom work includes appearances on "Perfect Strangers," "Harry," and "Saved by the Bell: The College Years."
She won an Emmy for playing Judge Roberta Kittleson on The Practice
It's impressive any time an actor parlays a one-off guest appearance into a recurring role on a TV series. It's even more impressive when the actor goes on to win an Emmy for the performance. And that's exactly what Holland Taylor did when she landed the role of Judge Roberta Kittleson on "The Practice," David E. Kelley and Bill D'Elia's legal drama that ran from 1997 to 2004.
It was also a groundbreaking role in terms of representation onscreen. At the time, it was practically unheard of for a television series to acknowledge that "women of a certain age" are sexually active, much less fully formed and complex individuals. "I think we've gone through a 20-year backlash against portraying women who are humans and fully viable sexually and psychologically, intelligent and capable," Holland said in 1999, describing the role to the Los Angeles Times.
Taylor won the 1999 Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress In A Drama Series for the role, her first career nomination and only win to date. Taylor has been nominated for 8 Emmy Awards overall (via The Emmys).
She was Charlie and Alan's domineering mother on Two and a Half Men
Holland Taylor's performance as Evelyn Harper in "Two and a Half Men" is arguably both her most well-known comedic role, as well as the role that best defines her career. As a character, Evelyn is the quintessential Holland Taylor role — overbearing, financially successful, and used to getting what she wants.
"As an actor, I do have a certain authority," Ms. Taylor told the New York Times in 2008. "I can't be in a subservient or an obsequious part. I'm really not good at it. But in my life I've often been very much on my back foot and very timid. So I don't know where that sense of maturity and strength came from, because I didn't really have those strengths." Taylor appeared on all 12 of the show's seasons from 2003 to 2015, receiving four Emmy nominations for the role.
Legally Blonde is just one of her many comedy films on her resume
MGM Distribution Co.
If she had just acted on television, Holland Taylor would already have a long and distinguished career. However, she has also appeared in dozens of film roles over her four-plus decades of acting onscreen.
In 2001, Taylor memorably played Harvard Law Professor Elspeth Stromwell in "Legally Blonde," another demanding professional type, but also someone who was honest about how the world really works. One particular line, which she delivers to Elle Woods (Reese Witherspoon) is still quotable 20 years later: "If you're going to let one stupid p—- ruin your life, you're not the girl I thought you were."
According to Taylor herself, (via Vulture), Professor Stromwell of is one of the parts she's most recognized for, and she says that this very line is something that she continues seeing quoted to this day. "I can't tell you how I see this constantly in social media referred to, all the time. It's that thing about the elder female wise person that will give you the bottom line about how to behave in your society, about how not to take any bull—- from anybody. And so that was an iconic moment for me. What is it? Twenty years? It's more than 20 years."

Shania Twain Has 'Enough Music for Three Albums' After Writing a 'Mountain' of Songs in Quarantine
Like other country artists, Shania Twain has found herself with a lot of extra downtime during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic in 2020. The singer had to scrap plans for her 2020 Let's Go! Las Vegas residency amid continuing concerns about the virus' spread and social distancing protocols that preclude fans from gathering in large groups.
Though she never expected the pandemic to last as long as it has, Twain says that there's been a silver lining to her time off the road: She's got new music up her sleeve — a lot of it.
"I mean, I've got a mountain of songs now," she says with a smile during a recent virtual appearance on ABC's Live With Kelly and Ryan. "You know, COVID has lasted so much longer than any of us expected, so I have enough music for three albums now."
That's been a bright spot for Twain during an otherwise unpredictable year. "I just keep writing and writing and writing and writing. Yeah, it's good. I have been very productive, yeah," she adds.
Of course, Twain also hopes that she'll soon be able to return to Planet Hollywood's Zappos Theater and finish her Las Vegas residency, but explains that the pandemic has kept her and her team in a holding pattern regarding when they'll be able to resume performing.
"Well, I'm waiting to get back to Vegas onstage at Zappos. I've been waiting like everybody else for the 'okay' to get back in the room, you know?" she says with a shrug. "So, I'm on standby, and writing music."
Aside from working on her new music, the country icon has another important milestone coming up: She's celebrating the 25th anniversary of her 1995 breakthrough album, The Woman in Me, with a special edition box set of the project.

Potential homeowners urged to check responsibility before buying at Carse estates
By Ross Gardiner
July 11 2019, 8.33am
Councillor Forbes says unkempt greenspaces are making residents' lives " a misery".
[[success]]
A Perthshire councillor has warned potential Carse of Gowrie residents to be aware of who is responsible for green space management before buying a home in one of the area's new housing estates.
Large scale developments have been built recently in villages along the A90, and people are moving from far and near to purchase a new home.
Housebuilders are regularly required to leave communal open spaces within their developments, but where the maintenance responsibilities lie is often shrouded in confusion.
Conservative councillor Angus Forbes, who represents the Carse of Gowrie, is asking people buying houses in these new estates to get clarification over ownership of communal greenspaces before they commit to the purchase.
This comes after Mr Forbes received an influx of complaints from residents about the unkempt nature of open greenspaces around the Carse of Gowrie.
The areas in particular he has been inundated with complaints about are two pieces of land in Longforgan which are now overgrown and untidy, making residents' lives "a misery".
Mr Forbes said: "The recent good weather has meant that communal greenspaces are now growing quickly, many of them are eyesores and are right in front of peoples houses.
"In most cases these parcels of land have never been owned by the council, in fact they were passed on by the developer to private companies after the site was completed.
"These companies, in some cases, have sold them on to private individuals who are taking a gamble that they will eventually get planning permission to build a house on them.
"Whilst the owners do have an obligation to look after the sites, if they refuse to do so, which is happening a lot at the moment, people tend to contact the council as they assume they are the owners whilst the fact is that these are private bits of land owned by individual people who normally don't live in the area.
"I get complaints at least every week about sites in Longforgan and Inchture.
"I would urge anyone who is buying a house in a new estate to question the developer thoroughly about the ownership of these bits of land, who owns them, who is responsible for maintaining them, how often will they be cut and is there any chance the land would be sold on to a speculator.
"I would also recommend discussing this with your solicitor."
