Does Ford own Ferrari?
Even though Ken Miles was in the lead, Leo Beebe insisted on having all three Ford cars cross the finish line together.
In the movie, Miles reluctantly agrees to slow down to let the other two catch up.
In real life it's a legend that Miles did in fact slow down, but the movie printed the legend..
Hemmings readers who knew Beebe after his time at Ford have scratched their heads because the man as shown in the movie is not the man they knew. … The 1966 race at Le Mans was 54 years ago, and Leo retired from Ford in 1972, 48 years ago.
From what limited information is available online, it appears that Peter joined his father in the car business, and oversaw the development and production of ten Ken Miles Limited Edition 427 Cobra replicas. He is also the executive administrator of a vintage car collection valued at over $80 million.
Peter Miles is not exactly a second-generation driver, although his father, Ken, was one of America's leading sports car drivers in the 1960s, but he is a second-generation racing personality.
MollieKen Miles was married to Mollie and had a son, Peter Miles. He was also a close friend of Carroll Shelby. Peter was almost 15 when he witnessed his father's death during the testing of a prototype car in 1966.
He dies in a tragic crash at the end of the movie—after he's cheated out of a first place win at Le Mans because of a botched PR plan. … Ford was going to build a car to beat Ferrari in the world's most important race, Le Mans—a race Ferrari had won five years in a row.
Leo Beebe, portrayed by Josh Lucas This essentially forced Ken Miles to lose the race he had been determined to win. Years later, Beebe stated in an interview that his decision at Le Mans was partly because he was worried over safety and financial concerns.
Riverside International RacewayKen Miles/Place of death
Miles won the 24 Hours of Daytona and the 12 Hours of Sebring in 1966, and placed second at Le Mans. Miles died in a crash while testing Ford's J-Car later that year. British-born Ken Miles was a gifted race car engineer and driver. Through his work for Carroll Shelby, Miles got involved in Ford's GT racing program.
10. Ken Miles's death changed the racing world. On August 17, 1966, Ken Miles died when the Ford J-car he had been testing for almost an entire day at California's Riverside International Raceway flipped, crashed, and caught on fire, then broke into pieces and ejected Miles, who was killed instantly.
On the 50th anniversary of Ford's 1966 win in 2016, Rushbrook's team led Ford to victory in the 24 Hours of Le Mans' GT class after an epic duel with a Ferrari 488. The win has helped sell Fords like the Mustang globally, making it the best-selling sports car in the world.
Both vehicles Ford entered suffered from a faulty gearbox actuator and other problems that caused them to pit numerous times. The No. 66 GT finished seventh and the No.
In any event, McLaren's car passed Miles, robbing him of a potentially historic triple crown (he'd already won prestigious races at Daytona and Sebring). … The infamous finish of the 1966 race at Le Mans.
While the historical record regarding the famous race is a bit murky to say the least, there is evidence that Beebe and Ken Miles did clash, and it was Beebe's idea to have Miles slow down during the 1966 race at Le Mans so that the Ford cars could finish in a tie, which ultimately led to Miles losing the race, however …

This study targeted adults between the ages of 18 and 70 with mild to moderate asthma. We focused our efforts on women between the ages of 18 and 64, since women have a 30% higher incidence of asthma, and are more likely to seek medical attention. The major challenge was launching the campaign during the most expensive media quarter of the year.
Our recruitment campaign – which included print advertising and site materials – helped us easily exceed the contracted recruitment goal of 3,500 referred pre-qualified patients. And we kept patients interested and active in the study via a retention effort that included items such as a bimonthly newsletter and gift certificates.

Fou Gallery is pleased to announce that our new exhibition Wei Jia: A Way of Life will be on view from October 13, 2018 to December 23, 2018. An ordinary person, living an ordinary life in his ordinary attitude and doing ordinary things, Wei loves traditional Chinese art but does not follow conventional rules. He interprets the tradition in his own way and gives it a broader meaning. This exhibition presents his daily work in Brooklyn, New York in recent years, including Xuan paper (rice paper) collages on large-scale canvases, works on paper, hand scrolls, calligraphy albums, small manuscripts, and a site-specific installation. This exhibition showcases Wei's complete creative process and his creative state to explore the connection between art making and daily life.
Wei began to learn Chinese poetry and landscape painting with the renowned collector Zhang Boju and his wife Pan Su at an early age, which deeply influenced his entire life. Later, he studied oil painting at the Central Academy of Fine Arts. In 1985, he went to the United States to obtain a MFA. After 1993, he settled down in Brooklyn, New York. He uses Xuan paper as primary medium, mixing ink, gouache, acrylic and other pigments on it. He writes calligraphy, then tears off the paper, reorganizes the pieces, and repeats the process to make collages. In such a process of accidental changes and inevitable forces, his life experience and artistic experience are integrated into visual images.
For the exhibition, Wei will also present a scene on-site based on the brownstone structure of the gallery with his calligraphy written in the past two years. The immersive environment allows the viewer to enter the artist's daily life.

Vint Cerf, vice president and chief Internet evangelist at Google, is considered by many to be one of the fathers of the Internet.
How will new mobile technologies, such as 5G and the Internet of Things (IoT), change military communications?
Smart devices, sensors, controllers are increasingly important for military operations, including surveillance, situation awareness. These devices are deeply dependent on wireless deployment and will benefit from 5G capacities. By implication, the U.S. and its allies will need to cooperate to assure secure interoperation of their 5G implementations.
What is the role of strong authentication in battlespace communications?
Strong authentication is essential to assure that information goes only to authorized destinations from known and authentic sources, lest false information be injected into sensor systems or valid information reach inappropriate destinations. Users and devices will benefit from these technologies. A challenge is to assure that the public/private keys used are, in fact, from valid sources. Not all certificate authorities can or should be trusted, implying that their authentication is equally important. The same technologies that afford strong authentication can also protect conventional symmetric key distribution, adding significant deployment flexibility for secure communication.
What should we watch most closely as information systems evolve?
Continued risk of software bugs that are exploitable should drive research efforts into better programming environments to highlight software mistakes. Increased testing and so-called "fuzzing" can help by exercising "corner cases" that might create exploitable vulnerabilities. Heavy use of software libraries should spur regular analysis and verification of these software repositories to avoid supply chain exploitation through the use of compromised open-source software, for example.
What is the most important component capability in future communications?
A combination of higher power high frequency amplifiers in the 60-120 GHz range would offer substantial increase in available bandwidths at increasing range. At these frequencies, CDMA becomes even more attractive in terms of capacity to share common spectrum among a larger number of devices.
What do you think is the next great information technology trend?
Quantum effects seem to have the edge. Using them produces significant gains in sensitivity and thus signal-to-noise ratio. I admit, however, that I am less excited about quantum key distribution, believing that post-quantum public key cryptography that is resistant to cracking by quantum computation may prove to be more reliable.

Let Divine Mother clarify Divinity and Sexuality. Do they have a relationship? Divine Mother knows the answer to these and other secrets of life. She wants to tell you Her Secrets.
Divine Trust or "Faith" is a manifesting power. It moves the unbounded source to your assistance. The mechanics of this have to do with setting your intention and then letting go of the intention to the Divine Power. This letting go process then allows the universe to act. Doubt and mental control interfere with the process. Divine Mother will teach us to consistently "let go" and trust the universe to manifest what we are really asking for.

Religious freedom prevails according to the constitution and is generally respected. An overwhelming majority of Nigerians are Muslims. Christianity, Bahai and traditional African religions are also practiced but only to a small extent.
Of the Muslims, 95 percent are Sunni Muslims and 5 percent are Shia Muslims. Sufism (Islamic mysticism) is widespread; most Muslims belong to one of the four Sufis fraternities in the country. Especially important is the Tidjania Order. Many have retained the element of popular belief in their religious practice. For example, the Tuaregan religion is a mixture of Sunni Islam and older traditions that include fertility rites and sacred worship.
Since 2000, Islamists have demanded the introduction of Muslim law, sharia, into the justice system. Violent protests against Western culture have taken place and Muslim leaders have been accused of revolting against the United States and other Western countries. Several Islamist organizations have been banned. In recent years, the Islamist movement Boko Haram, based in Nigeria, has won supporters in the border region between the countries. In other parts of the country too, radical Islam has gained ground. There, the support for democracy is weaker than in the cities and local imams' message of a social order based on Islam gets easier attachment. However, the majority of Nigerians are moderate Muslims.
Christians make up less than two percent of the population. Most are French or immigrants from neighboring countries. The few thousand individuals who profess to the world religion bahai (who ultimately wants to bridge all conflicts between peoples, religions and social systems) live primarily in the capital Niamey and west of it along the border with Burkina Faso.
Niger is a multiethnic state with great cultural differences. The largest ethnic group is the Hausa with around 54% of the population, Djerma with 22% and Longai. Hausa is spoken by three quarters of the population and is used as a lingua franca and trade.
The Fulbe live mainly in the Sahel, the Tuareg in the Sahara.
The Berber people of the Tuareg have a reputation as a warrior people and a people of robber barons through the travelogues of research and trade travelers from the 19th century. The Turareg are known as "knights of the desert" who live from the caravan trade.
The Tuareg wear a famous costume, of which the men's face veil is particularly striking. Your language Tamaschagh is a Berber language with its own script. The Tuareg society is originally structured in a strictly hierarchical manner, with the aristocratic warrior caste at the top. Tuareg are Muslim.
Today around 1 million Tuareg live in the Sahara and Sahel regions. Many of them have now adapted to modern society and taken up professions in industry and craft. However, many fear for their cultural independence. Every year the Tuareg traditionally lead a salt caravan 400 km through the sandy desert of Ténéré.
In Niger, Arabs, Tubu and Europeans live as minorities. The official language is French. Despite compulsory schooling, Niger has an illiteracy rate of 72%. 80% of the Nigerians belong to Islam, 10 to 15% to the natural religions.
Niger has a low population density and is one of the most sparsely populated countries in Africa. Most of the people live in the fertile areas of the southwest.

Niger receives EU praise for reduced migrant flows
Niger is praised by the EU for its efforts to reduce the migrant flow from Africa to Europe. According to the European Commission, Niger has reduced the number of migrants through the country from 70,000 in May 2016 to 1,500 in October of the same year. A large proportion of the West Africans who apply to the EU usually travel through Niger on their way to Libya, where smugglers ship them across the Mediterranean. According to the EU, the Nigerian authorities have also helped to bring back 4,430 migrants to their home countries.
Local selection is postponed
The government announces that the local elections scheduled for January 8, 2017 must take place at a later date for the authorities to be able to finalize a system for dotting voters by biometric means, ie by registering their fingerprints. This is the fourth time that the day for local elections has changed and the opposition is accusing the government of wanting to postpone them indefinitely.
German military base will be built
Germany will build a military base in Niger to support the UN force in neighboring Mali. According to Germany's ambassador to Niger, the Germans should play a more active role in the Sahel region and help fight terrorism there. The US and France already have bases in Niger for the same purpose.
Seven Amadou Trogna are released
Seven opposition politicians with ties to former President Hama Amadou are released from prison where they have been sitting since November 2015. Amadou, who came second in the March 2016 presidential election, is in Paris for hospital care.
New rebel group formed in the northeast
A new armed group, called the Justice and Restoration Movement in Niger (MJLN), threatens attacks unless the government takes action against foreign oil companies, whose operations destroy local land according to the rebels. The MJLN also demands that the toubou people group in northeastern Niger receive better education, food and health care.
Boko Haram attacks refugee camps
17th of June
Seven military police officers are killed when Boko Haram attacks a camp where people have fled the Islamist terrorist group.
Dozens of soldiers are killed by Boko Haram
More than 30 Nigerian soldiers are killed in a battle with the Islamist extremist movement Boko Haram near the Nigeria border, the Nigerian Defense Ministry said.
Opposition cancels boycott
The opposition cancels the boycott of the work of Parliament and the Election Commission. The justification states that the National Assembly cannot just be "an echo" of the government's decision.
New government takes office
President Issoufou forms a new government with 40 ministers from his party PNDS and its allies. Tuaregen Brigi Rafini remains on the Prime Minister's post, which he has held since 2011.
Amadou is released to the bail
Opposition leader Hama Amadou is released from custody of the bail. Amadou, who is in Paris for hospital care, is charged with involvement in human trafficking in infants.
Issoufou given election victory
In the second round of the presidential election, President Issoufou gets 92.5 percent of the vote, announces the election commission, which states the turnout to 56 percent. The opposition, which called for a boycott, claims that only 11 percent of voters participated in the election. Opposition candidate Amadou, who was detained during the electoral movement, is on election day in Paris for medical care. A spokesman for the opposition says Niger from April 2, when Issoufou's current term expires, will no longer have a legitimate president.
The opposition boycott the second round of the presidential election
The opposition calls on Nigerians to boycott the second round of the presidential election and calls on its representatives in the electoral commission to leave their seats. The reason is that the opposition candidate Hama Amadou has not been able to conduct a regular electoral movement as he is arrested on suspicion of human trafficking.
Election success for Issoufou and PNDS
February 21st
President Issoufou receives 48, 4 percent of the vote in the presidential election. This means that he does not reach the 50 percent required to avoid a second round of elections on March 20. He is then set against opposition leader Hama Amadou, who gets 17.4 percent of the vote despite being arrested on suspicion of trafficking in children (see November 2015). In the parliamentary elections held simultaneously, the government coalition gets 90 out of 171 seats, 75 of which go to the PNDS. Next largest will be Amadou's party Moden. The turnout is 66.8 percent.
Possible to vote without a voting card
The Constitutional Court approves the government's proposal that people who have not had their voting cards should be allowed to vote anyway, if two witnesses can prove their identity. The proposal is criticized by the opposition who say it is an attempt at electoral fraud.
Thousands of schoolchildren are relocating from border areas
In cooperation with the UN, the authorities have since November moved 99 schools from areas that are often attacked by Boko Haram to places further away from the border with Nigeria. According to the government, nearly 6,000 students have been able to resume their studies.
"Voice lengths are reliable"
7 th of January
The French Speaking Organization (OIF) says that the votes are reliable enough to be used in the February presidential election, if some changes are made. Among other things, the OIF proposes to delete 300 non-existent polling stations, as well as 25,000 people who have been registered twice.

Problem debt costs UK taxpayers £248m and wider society £900m annually.
£874m in social value could be generated by giving the UK's most vulnerable young people access to expert-led financial education, a charity has claimed after an independent report of their work.
Evaluators, ERS, spent a year examining the impact of 'survival' money management workshops on over a thousand 16-25 year old NEETS and care leavers, who on average are more likely to be in poverty and have problem debt.
Average debts of £300 dropped 60% to £120. This compared to control groups of their peers, who saw their average debts grow by 50%.
The number saving money regularly increased by 23%.
Using the respected Housing Association Charitable Trust social value model, the £156m cost of providing the UK's 800,000 Neets and 10,000 annual care leavers with financial education is outweighed nearly six times over - reducing debts, increasing savings and alleviating financial burdens.
This year, the Children and Social Care Act placed a legal duty on local authorities to protect young care leaver's economic wellbeing and ensure access to financial information. In 2016 The Children's Society found that almost half of councils in England fail to offer these services.
ERS' findings strengthen the case for providing trained expert money guidance for vulnerable young people, which is backed by reports from the All Party Parliamentary Groups on Financial Education for Young People, and on Ending Homelessness, and the Mayor of London.
MyBnk's Money Works course covers independent living, digital finance skills and debt prioritisation. It tackles topics such as budgeting and habits, the financial system, borrowing, how taxes, banking and benefits work, and accommodation. Sessions were delivered by MyBnk via councils leaving care units and employability programmes run by organisations such as Princes Trust and Premier League Works.
The research was funded by the Money Advice Services' £12m 'What Works' Fund: a two-year investment programme designed to test and pilot potential new financial capability solutions, scale up interventions and evaluate existing projects across the UK. It evaluated Money Works' programmes' theory, outcomes, causality and value for money.
It may also be more effective to direct resources outside of London. ERS discovered a greater social return on investment of £8.19 for every £1 versus £4.05 in the capital. The programme therefore helps those most in need, as young people outside London were found to have lower financial capabilities. Money Works closes this gap.

Together with young people, they have created innovative, high impact and high energy workshops that bring money to life. MyBnk covers topics such as saving, budgeting, public finance, social enterprise and start-up entrepreneurship. Alongside delivery, they also design projects and training programmes. Since 2007 they have helped over 220,000 young people learn how to manage their money in 1,300 schools and youth organisations.
As a core part of its work supporting the Financial Capability Strategy for the UK, The Money Advice Service launched the £12 million What Works Fund in 2016 to establish the most effective ways of helping different groups manage their money, and find out what works to increase financial capability. In its initial phase, the Fund awarded grants to 65 pilot projects across the UK, directly impacting over 40,000 people. The impact of these projects is being evaluated, so that lessons learned can be used to increase effectiveness, attract funding, and scale up interventions to help millions of people across the UK. This evidence is available on the Money Advice Service Evidence Hub, a focal point for organising and sharing financial capability evidence and insight.
Now in its 25th year of trading, ERS is a highly respected economic research consultancy, employing 18 people in offices in Bristol and Newcastle. The company undertakes a variety of economic and social research studies for government departments, non-departmental public bodies, local enterprise partnerships, local authorities, universities/colleges and a range of third sector organisations.

When Three Streams Smokehouse teamed up with Marel to implement the most advanced trout/salmon processing system in South Africa, the customized system improved efficiency and changed the way Three Streams processes fish.
Started 25 years ago, Three Streams is owned by the Stubbs Family, who have been involved in the fishing industry since the early 1980s. A few years into the start of the business, CEO Gregory Stubbs saw a need to remove pressure on the ocean's dwindling resources and believed that aquaculture was the way to go.
Today, Three Streams Group is involved in the entire value chain, including research and development, in the farming of marine fin fish. Currently, Three Streams is one of the largest hatchery operations in South Africa and produces over 1.6 million fingerlings a year.
When the company first started, each individual fixed-weight portion of fish had to be cut by hand. This led to a lot of wastage, specifically when trimming off excess to guarantee the right weight. Three Streams sought to reduce this wastage as it was at odds with their ethos to minimize their impact on marine resources.
Additionally, there was concern over consumer expectations. Not only do they want freshness, convenience, and perfect presentation, but consistency in portion sizes as well.
With this in mind, Marel and Three Streams Smokehouse partnered up in 2005 to introduce the most advanced trout/salmon processing system in South Africa. Marel introduced a customized and integrated system that would forever change the way in which Three Streams processed fish.
Three Streams gradually started to upgrade the company's processing, beginning with the purchase of a few weighing machines. The next big step towards streamlining the process came when Three Streams implemented Marel's Innova Intelligent Production Control Systems onto the processing floor.
Innova Food Processing Software's solutions are designed to boost profits and overall production performance. The system covers everything from the receipt of raw materials to product dispatch, and provides all the key performance indicators (KPIs) for each stage.
With Innova, Three Streams can monitor the whole process in real time. This means being able to make adjustments should any bottlenecks occur and take corrective action to minimize downtime or loss in profitability.
The next major development in restructuring the process happened when Three Streams purchased a Marel I-Cut PortionCutter for high-value sizing into fixed-weight or fixed-length portions.
The I-Cut is able to scan fish fillets, take their density into account, and then cut them into fixed-weight portions at a rapid pace with very minimal wastage. The design also makes it easy to clean, ensuring a high level of hygiene.
The PortionCutter was developed with new generation processing software, programming, flexibility, and a variety of specified cutting patterns to ensure return on investment. It has helped Three Streams achieve considerable savings on labor, wastage, and downtime.
Three Streams Smokehouse (Pty) Ltd, located in Franschhoek, has been a proud supplier of sustainable salmon, trout, and premium seafood products to all major retailers and the food service industry in Southern Africa for 25 years.
Three Streams Smokehouse is part of the vertically integrated company Three Streams Holdings, which operates across the South African salmonid value chain. The company produces trout from egg to plate and believes in controlling the quality of its product throughout.

Foxconn Technology Group has donated $100 million to the University of Wisconsin-Madison in a partnership to help research, establish another office for the College of Engineering and to make a research foundation on its manufacturing grounds in Mount Pleasant.
The organization's agreement with UW-Madison will bolster research in designing, information and software engineering, and human health, including genomics and medical imaging technology for treating malignancy.
It likewise gives subsidizing to research into artificial intelligence, propelled by remote interchanges frameworks and the organization's goals screens.
Foxconn administrator and organizer Terry Gou and UW-Madison Chancellor Rebecca Blank reported the partnership Monday morning amid a news meeting in Madison.
The majority of Foxconn's $100 million present will go toward another interdisciplinary research focus at 1410 Engineering Drive on the UW-Madison grounds.
The Foxconn venture is to be coordinated by the college through raising support endeavors and will likewise subsidize the production of the Foxconn Institute for Research in Science and Technology that will be situated at the organization's Wisconn Valley Science and Technology Park in Mount Pleasant.
Foxconn as of now has reported plans for advancement focuses in downtown Milwaukee, Green Bay, and Eau Claire.
Furthermore, it has propelled a three-year, $1 million Smart Cities, Smart Futures challenge that gives grants and monetary rewards to college understudies all through the state who submit recommendations for mechanical undertakings in lodging, office effectiveness, correspondences, and different points.
Foxconn authorities have said they might want to have Wisconsin turned into a technology focus to some degree like California's Silicon Valley.
"At Foxconn, we see our part as being a noteworthy financial specialist in Wisconsin, as well as a long haul accomplice to the nearby network," Gou said. "This incorporates advancing a living situation that supports and empowers Wisconsin's gifted workforce, enabling them to tap the tremendous open doors that Wisconn Valley brings to the table."
"Our cooperation will unite a portion of the world's driving researchers, doctors and specialists to drive propel in technology and science while encouraging the ability pipeline that will help assemble Wisconsin's future," Blank said.

"Quavo Huncho" will simply be an extension of the Migos.
In just a few days, we'll be listening to Quavo's first official solo album. The Migos member has been looked at as the star of the group for years, making way for Offset to creep his way up, joining him at the top this year. Unfortunately, Takeoff's insane talents are still underrepresented in the mainstream but we all know just how good he actually is. Some were worried that Quavo's solo project would mean bad things for the trio in the future, especially if it's a commercial success. Thankfully, Q came through to calm us down, assuring his fans that his main focus will always be on the group.


Review: This isn't one of the best lipstick, maybe because it was the colour I have chosen. To be honest, there's not much difference in the before and after. The only difference is that it gives a subtle shimmer and it is the exact same colour as my lips! I was hoping for a nice light pink. On the box, it says "Contains Hydro-Wrap Vitalizing DE, a lasting moisturizer." I would say it does have moisturizing features as my lips are less dry. I can't really rate whether it lasts long as it matches my natural lip colour and the price, is fair but expensive plus its a high brand. Not sure whether to purchase this again but in different colours.
It's ok.I would have gone with something a little pinker ^_~.It look like your lipstick is really fade like ya know?Still cute!


Come here to feel at one with the sea! To soar and to whilst soaring above it! A super infinity pool is just one the delightful pleasures of this niche and luxury Mykonos villa, with a somewhat folkloric setting atop an arid and wild cliff above the Aegean Sea. The quiet Tigani area is on the north east coast and far way from the crowds and the villa overlooks Lia Bay and its beautiful and secluded beach. The property is not completely isolated (several houses are nearby) but is entirely private, with access via a private and gated road. The villa is constructed to blend into the rocky topography of the hillside and is dressed by a traditional walled garden filled with olive trees, cacti and geraniums. There is a sense of organic hedonism at this villa, with the furniture and much of the décor is assembled from sea parts. The villa is owned and was created by an artist, who literally sculpted and created a unique work of art by hand: one that features whitewashed walls and rock-carved corridors within a labyrinthine interior that has no straight walls and with very few corners! Not to be outdone in character, the outdoor terrace and the depth-descending infinity swimming pool run the entire length of the main house to present a sublime 180˚ sea vista (including the island of Dragonisi).
Arranged over two levels, with a mezzanine and an annex, this unique villa sleeps 8 in 4 bright, airy bedrooms en suite. The chic first-floor master bedroom has a walk-in closet and a lovely domed-ceiling bathroom made of coloured glass, which creates spectacular optical effects. It also has a private balcony over the pool and which grants superb sea views. A staircase connecting the two levels resembles a natural rock cavity and the villa, overall, presents a suitably atmospheric and intimate ambience: one also quite magical and romantic! Guests may find the most strenuous thing to they may need to do is to decide when to get out of the pool or what to grill on the outdoor barbeque to eat in the shade of the terrace pergola, without having to sacrifice missing one second of the spectacular sea view.
The luxury villa has an inspiring and surprisingly spiritual ambience, which is particularly well suited for anybody contemplating a more meditative holiday experience in Mykonos. Its uniqueness also makes this unusual villa a rather special venue for honeymooners or groups of couples, though rather less so for young children and the more elderly due to the nature of its layout.


A few months ago, I received a mail from a reader asking me for the English names of some items she had come across in a Northern Nigeria market.
A few mails back and forth and I decided that I definitely had to interview her so that I could share with you some of her natural lifestyle practices. Easy to incorporate into your daily life and it will make a big impact not only in your life but also in the environment.
The first thing you will probably notice is that Katharine is very tall. Lol! Actually, you will notice that she is an Oyinbo so we are making her an "honorary" Natural Nigerian! Make sure you read it all, she shares some really interesting things about how we can live Naturally in Nigeria.
Hi! My name is Katharine. I'm from Ireland but have lived most of the last 14 years in Africa. I've been in Nigeria since August 2014.
Have you always led a natural lifestyle?
Living in Africa has had a big impact on my life. I have been saddened to see how many people want to leave their own culture behind them and embrace a Western lifestyle. There are so many good things in Africa! I want to learn about them, to encourage Africans to embrace their natural heritage. Many of our products and habits from the West are not good for our bodies, our skin, our health, for the environment. I want to consider purchases that I make, to ask myself, is this good for my skin? Is it good for the environment? Was it produced in an ethical way? Can the packaging be safely re-used or composted or will it add to the growing piles of plastic we see daily?
A key moment for me was a few years ago, when an African friend developed a really bad rash on her hands from using a cream to make her skin white. It prompted me to learn what I could about simple, local, cheap, natural toiletries, to pursue a natural lifestyle, and to share what I was learning with others.
Has it been difficult/expensive maintaining a natural lifestyle in Nigeria?
It has not been expensive because I am using local items that I find in the markets which are cheaper than imported, packaged western goods. It has not been difficult to find good things, I've had great fun learning about the wonderful natural products you have here.
"The Urban Homestead" by Coyne and Knutzen. They are all very readable and are full of stories and ideas on how to live a natural and responsible lifestyle, even in a city. Last year I did a Permaculture Design Certificate which gave me an opportunity to think through how I would like to live naturally in Nigeria. The internet is also a great resource to find and share ideas and to meet and learn from like-minded people.
What are the local things that you have found work for you?
I'm loving that I can make all my own toiletries eg toothpaste made using local "nzu" clay, or an easy shower scrub using oil and salt. Nigerian black soap is fantastic for washing anything – dishes, hair, clothes – and because its natural, the water can be re-used for watering the garden.
Your coconut oil is great for cooking, for the skin, for teeth (eg oil pulling), and of course you have wonderful shea butter here!
I love the fact that I can buy these things "to measure" in the market so that there is no packaging waste involved. I bring my own empty boxes/bottle/small cloth bags so that I do not have to use a "leda" plastic bag.
My bags ready for shopping – when I write my market list, I also write what packaging I need to bring to carry it home.
And as for natural food – wow! There are so many wonderful nutritious ingredients available – acha, tamba, bambara groundnuts, tiger nuts- the list goes on!
What have your main obstacles been in trying to maintain a natural lifestyle in Nigeria?
Sometimes it is hard being different! This might sound funny because obviously I am different being white, but still, people say things like "we don't do it like that", or "you should do it like this". Also, when not many people are living in a natural way it can be hard to work out how to do this lifestyle.
Any words of wisdom or advice for others?
Don't be ashamed of your local African cultural practices. Ask your parents and grandparents how they did things – food preparation, skin care, remedies etc. These traditions are gentle on the earth and gentle on our skin, and we need to gather this information before it's lost. Consumption at a western level is not sustainable – we need to learn from you and your ways.
"Ask your parents and grandparents how they did things – food preparation, skin care, remedies" Thats exactly what I tell my students. We have very little value for what comes cheap to us. Thanks for sharing NN and Katherine.
Hi Nat, I am glad you liked the post. So many things are dying away because we have not pursued them or have turned to Western ways. We have a treasure trove but we keep turning away from it.
Very interesting. This lady goes IN.
Kudos to her and all the very natural Nigerians!
I'm curious about the keetsay thing, off to Google!
Hi chica! Yes, she does. Keetsay does sounds quite interesting. I am hoping that she will agree to an even more in-depth post soon where we can tak specifically about this amongst other things.
Hi Grace, thank you for the correction on the spelling of Kitse. I will update the post.
This is interesting! In my house, we rub shea butter and coconut oil on our body. I also use same mixture for my hair. The only reason I'm not using black soap very often is because it makes my bathtub get dirty quickly.
Kudos to her and NN!
I am glad you enjoyed Katharine's post. Shea Butter and Cocoa Butter should be in every home. I have used Black soap for years and have not noticed any stains in my bath tub. Maybe try from a different seller?
Hi, NN – I use your black soap and I have to wash my tub much more often than usual. Its a fact black soap stains the tubs, but I don't mind washing more than I usually would.
Wow! I did not realize. I have been using black soap for at least 15 yrs now and I have never noticed. Maybe I am just used to it? Thanks for opening my eyes to this.
You are right on point. We have lost a lot and we are still losing a lot when we don't need to. We really need to embrace our culture. I am glad you enjoyed it, Sandra.
We've been so ignorant, careless about these natural things in our lifes… Its amazing how healthy and strong a person living in a village stays, simply because they are in TUNE with nature. Well said Katherine… Nature is life. Thanks for sharing.
I agree that we find it difficult to embrace things that come cheap to us. I'm making an effort to use more natural and easily available products in Lagos for my skin care. Been using shea butter as my 'body cream' for 2 years now and I don't regret it. I'm focusing on my face this year, tired of the cleansers that do not work. Thanks alot for sharing!!
Thanks NN and Katherine, gone naturally for a year can really see the health benefits and also use Shea butter as body cream funny enough given to me by my Trinidadian boss and it keeps my skin moisturized.
Natural journey, one I am so happy am fully on, amazed to how all skin issues I have battled all my life disappeared…..
My natural living like she said includes what I put 'in' and 'on' me.
I admire your decision to go zero waster. Making a lot of things by yourself give you freedom not to use ingredients that are somehow not good for yourself. You've made the first step to a healthier lifestyle and everyone should follow you!

The only fault that our dogs have is that they don't live long enough. The faithful friends, that dog lovers the world over, live with grow old before our eyes and eventually break our hearts. However, between the well learned middle-aged dog and saying the final goodbye is the oldie.
The oldie is a dog of grey chin and cloudy eye. He leans his body up our leg, the furniture or any other convenient object rather than stand on his stiff legs. Less inclined to go out for a walk, particularly in the rain our oldie prefers a comfy fire, or if at all possible, a feather bed.
Where he used to follow us around the home in the hope of a dropped morsel we now wander back to him, with love to give him his treat, because it's so much effort for him to get up on shaky legs. We lift him into the car and drive to the park, despite it being only ten minutes away on foot, so that he can get the best quality experience from his exercise routine.
Walks take longer and every blade of grass seems more interesting than the last. The toileting spot is suddenly ever more important than before and many minutes are spent looking from an empty poo bag to a dog that is carefully choosing exactly the right place for a convenient bathroom stop.
The oldie has often been with us from puppyhood, sometimes he arrived as an adult dog and some, of the very best people, adopt an oldie to let them live out the rest of their time in peace, security and comfort. However, we acquire our older dog we never have them long enough. As they get older we begin to think about being without them and it hurts.
So we take comfort that they are here now. Take extra time to show that we love them and are happy to potter around a park at a snail's pace, for the love they have given and continue to give, we owe them that.

Buttermilk is one of my favorite things to use in the kitchen.
It has a strong, cheesy taste if you drink it from the carton, but turns magically into a rich lemony cool treat when frozen.
Bring milk to simmer in heavy medium-size saucepan. In a separate large bowl, whisk egg yolks and sugar until blended. Using a large ladle, gradually whisk a small amount of the hot milk into egg yolk mixture whisking continuously so that the egg mixture does not scramble from the heat. Continue to add the cream gradually, then return mixture to saucepan.
Stir over medium heat until mixture thickens slightly, and clings to the back of the spoon, about 4 to 6 minutes. Strain into bowl and stir in cold buttermilk. Refrigerate until cool, then process in ice cream maker or freeze in a large container, stirring the mixture occasionally as it freezes for approximately 4 hours.

I used nonfat milk, and it still turned out great. I loved the creamy texture of it, which is sometimes hard to get from a home-made ice cream! But it was WAY too sweet, and I had used less sugar than directed.
Thanks Kay! I'm all for using less sugar, I'm going to retest this recipe. Many thanks for reading!
First off, you make your Ice Cream from Buttermilk, homemade Buttermilk, which is 5 times as thick as regular cream. This is how.
I make it out of 1% milk.

When I was a child, my parent's owned a small fiberglass sailboat, and subscribed to Yachting magazine. At the end of every issue were pages and pages of yachts for sale. These yachts — invariably larger than my parent's sailboat — were a window into another world. What captured my special attention was old wooden motor yachts, and the larger ones were especially alluring to my young eyes. It seemed impossible that something built in the 1920s could still be afloat in the 1960s, and I would spend many happy hours imagining myself as the proud owner of a classic beauty.
Fast forward many decades, and in the 1980s I recalled this powerful childhood impression and a wondrous thought occurred to me: I could now, as an adult, transform fantasy into reality.
So began a several year search for a classic motor yacht. Along the way I amassed a huge pile of archival material and thought: This would make a great book.
I did eventually acquire a beauty: Alondra. She was built in 1927, was wood, and 68-feet in length. I was besotted.
In addition, I also eventually published two books on classic steam and motor yachts:

Celtics notebook: Richardson fitting in well in Boston
Josh Richardson continues to get comfortable and scored 27 points in a win over New York on Saturday.
By Brian Robbmasslive.com
Josh Richardson gave the Celtics a spark Saturday night against the Knicks, scoring 27 points in a 114-107 win in Boston. Mary Schwalm/Associated Press
BOSTON — Josh Richardson landed in Boston this offseason after his third trade in as many seasons following disappointing seasons in Philadelphia and Dallas.
WHO: Philadelphia 76ers at Boston Celtics
WHEN: 7:30 p.m. Monday
TELEVISION: NBCSN
Those tough years made Richardson a low cost acquisition back in July. However, as the veteran wing has started to gain a comfort level under Coach Ime Udoka, the returns have been very promising. The 28-year-old saved his best work for Saturday's matchup against the Knicks, scoring a team-high 27 points off the bench on 9-of-14 shooting in Boston's 114-107 victory.
He also chipped in with a strong defensive presence as Boston limited the Knicks to just 19 fourth-quarter points, slowing down Kemba Walker during crunch time to help the Celtics hold off a furious comeback.
Through 22 games this season, Richardson is putting up career bests in a number of categories including field-goal percentage (47 percent). He's also shooting 40 percent from 3-point range, his best mark since his rookie season.
"It's been good," Richardson said of the transition to Boston. "Me and Ime worked together before already. So I kinda know his stuff, his values, his calls. And I gotta give credit to my teammates, you know what I'm saying, for letting me get out there and go. I can make 3s, I can do stuff like that, but I can also get going by having the ball in my hands and being able to facilitate, dribble, move and feel the game out. But I'm getting comfortable and it's been good for me."
The Celtics inked Richardson to an extension just weeks after acquiring him in a trade this summer and that deal is looking like a bargain with the efficient scoring and on-ball defense that he is providing. That value is only growing as the Celtics ask him to take more responsibility with so many players sidelined.
"He's been playing pretty consistent in general," said Udoka, who was an assistant in Philadelphia when RIichardson played for the 76ers. "You're seeing a guy that's getting the opportunity with some guys out, extended minutes, and obviously that's who he is on defense. He did it for us years ago in Philadelphia. He really guards those small guards well, stays in their rear view, contests them, bothers them, uses his length there. So he was obviously huge there."
AN UNDERMANNED KNICKS squad looked overmatched for much of the first half against Boston, trailing by double digits as the Celtics scored at ease.
However, that rhythm dissipated mere moments into the third quarter after the Knicks opened up the period on a 17-2 run, drawing the ire of Udoka in a timeout during the outburst.
"I was livid, honestly," Udoka said of the bench discussion. "We talked about what we did well in the first half, came out and did the opposite, for the most part. I felt we got a little cute there and relaxed up 15. But give them credit, they responded well. Forty-one point quarter and then we got back to lockdown defense and holding them to 19 in the fourth quarter.
"So they responded well, we made it harder on ourselves than it had to be, but still give the group credit. Coming off a hard fought game yesterday, to come in the back-to-back, guys playing extended minutes with all the people missing. We just had a little lapse there and snapped out of it and picked it up where we left off in the first half."
Richardson has spent time with Udoka in Philadelphia two years ago so he was not surprised by the direct criticism from the head coach. However, he would not get into specifics about what Udoka told the Celtics as they blew their big lead.
"I mean, I don't know how much he told you and I ain't no snitch," Richardson said. "I can't really get into that. He laid into us good. And that's what good coaches know they need to do sometimes. We were bleeding. We needed to stop it and it wasn't happening so we sat down and he let us have it, as he should have. I think that was a good moment for him going forward. He kind of said in the locker room, I don't want to have to do that. But I was like, 'Nah, nah. We needed that.' I said that in front of everybody: That was good. We needed that."

It's getting warmer outside, and you know what that means: Prom season is approaching!
This will, without a doubt, be a night to remember. In fact, probably one of the most exciting—and well-documented—evenings of your entire high school career. You'll want to look your best (to avoid any future cringing down the road), which means you definitely don't want to wait until the last minute to pull it all together.
Not sure what you're wearing yet? Don't worry, we put together 10 no-fail (and definitely not typical) looks to wear to your party of the year. Whether you're a classic gown kinda gal or looking to go the suit route, there's a little something for everyone.
This way you can focus your time and energy on more important things, like planning the after-party.
The classic gown will always remain on trend for prom, but it calls for a modern twist. Pair an ethereal tulle frock or textured ruffles with quirky accessories (a birdcage clutch, anyone?) for a look that's timeless, elegant, and, more importantly, unexpected.

Being sick loosens the customary strictures of my TV ethos. Normally, oppressed by my needs to maximize efficiency and minimize shame, I mostly try to watch things I haven't seen before and things that aren't total garbage. But six days on the sofa with the flu lends license to revisit old things and wallow in crap.
In addition to random episodes of various television shows, a Green Bay Packers playoff game, a Crimson Tide championship game, the Golden Globe Awards where Meryl Streep talked about how we need to protect journalists and insulted MMA, and dunes of additional flotsam (I discovered my Apple TV can stream every Simpsons episode ever, which is good to know), here's some of what I can remember watching in living DayQuil-vision over the last week.
Once Upon a Honeymoon, Leo McCarey (1942). Carey Grant and Ginger Rogers try to conduct a playful romantic comedy amongst the Nazi intrigues leading up to WWII. Featuring a scene where they're mistaken for Jews and confined to the Warsaw ghetto. One of the most schizophrenic movies I've ever seen.
Being There, Hal Ashby (1979). Revisited for obvious reasons. Ashby, working off a script byJerzy Kosiński, posits that a complete idiot uncomprehendingly reciting snippets of TV advertisements could rise to political power, but he doesn't quite dare to get Chauncey Gardiner all the way into the Oval Office, he just hints at the possibility. Outrageous satire then, business as usual now.
Caddyshack, Harold Ramis (1980). This amused me less than I thought it would. I didn't remember how much of the comedy turned on sexism. The Chevy Chase character has held up better than the Bill Murray character, I think.
High Fidelity, Stephen Frears (2000). This wasn't as fun as I remembered, either, and for sort of similar reasons. The movie proposes the girls as existing only to thwart or satisfy the boys. The boys are the only characters whose problems actually matter, and they're all a bunch of assholes. It was fun seeing all the posters in the record store, though. The Silos! God. The year 2000 was a lot of years ago all of a sudden! Amazing how little consciousness of hip hop these boys have.
Rushmore, Wes Anderson (1998). Very nice, but really all I can think about it what a quantum leap it was from this to The Royal Tenenbaums (2001), which is so infinitely better.
His Kind of Woman, John Farrow (1951). Uneven and claustrophobic romance/noir suffered a lot of production problems and it shows. But I'd watch Robert Mitchum and Jane Russell hang wallpaper, and Vincent Price is a hoot.
The Hateful Eight, Quentin Tarantino (2015). You know, I got about eight hateful minutes into this and turned it off. It's just boring. Probably unfair.
Blue Velvet, David Lynch (1986). Hasn't lost an ounce of weirdness in thirty years. You can't imagine it being made today. There's something so frank (forgive me) about its presentation of depravity. It doesn't wink at itself, or us; it doesn't say, "Ooh, look how naughty and outré I am." It's just like: Look at this.
The Secret Rules of Modern Living: Algorithms, David Briggs (2015). Notice how both this documentary and the article I mention below mention "secret rules." I've been abstractly terrified of the Internet for some time now; since the election it's not very abstract. (I squarely blame the Trump presidency on the Internet, period.) I came across this documentary on Netflix and I'm glad I watched it. Math has never been my strong suit, but the cheerful Oxford don explains algorithms in terms even I could understand, and I feel I have a glancing knowledge now of how, for instance, Google search works. Pretty fascinating.
"The Secret Rules of the Internet," Catherine Buni and Soraya Chemaly (2016). I so wish we had Orwell with us to see what is happening to the nature of public discourse. This article really got me thinking about how we've increasingly ceded authority and standards for truth to the radical flatness of the Internet, where information moves because of money and/or ideological agenda, and the truth is completely optional. Meryl Streep was right; we need to support real journalists now more than ever.

The Lobster, Yorgos Lanthimos (2015)
The Lobster, very much like Her and also like Under the Skin, takes place in a future that looks almost exactly like now but a little different; in particular, facial expressions seem to have been outlawed. Everyone displays a lack of affect you'd call shocking if it weren't for the fact that nothing's shocking in this place. People react to extraordinary violence and soft boiled eggs with equal indifference. If someone does happen to feel something, the emotions erupt in bizarre and sloppy ways, like geysers or toddlers. The premise is that in this near future, everyone must either be coupled with someone much like themselves; or be consigned to a life of utter independence, caring for and cared for by no one; or be transformed into an animal. Pretty Procrustean! The movie is stylish and very much of its moment in that it dramatizes the contemporary young person's affliction of feeling vaguely nostalgic about emotions but too jaded or fearful or I don't know what to actually have them.
I'm going to hope someone else has the time and patience to thoroughly pick apart the gender and sexual politics here. The movie at one point realizes it is severely heteronormative and tries to make a little joke to try to excuse itself; the effort is transparent and ineffective. Meanwhile, as to gender, all the women are either bitchy and icy or nurturing types who sacrifice everything of their own for the sake of their men. (Again, compare to Her. You can even compare sad Colin Farrell above to sad Joaquin Phoenix on the Her poster. They're the same character.) The men are uniformly hapless, either pushed around or coddled. It's all highly regressive, but I fear the college kids will only see the cool and quirky surface and not the sexist same-old same-old underneath. They even fooled the brilliant Rachel Weisz, who's usually so smart about her choices. (It's time to forgive her for The Mummy; that was ages ago.)

Ernst Edvald Dahlberg, född 10 maj 1858 i Skänninge församling i Östergötlands län, död 1 november 1888 i Oristano på Sardinien, var en svensk mönsterritare.

Han var son till possessionaten Johan Fredrik Dahlberg och hans hustru. Efter avslutade studier vid Norrköpings tekniska läroverk reste Dahlberg till Frankrike. Där arbetade han som mönsterritare och etablerade slutligen en egen mönsterateljé. Han nådde stora framgångar och sålde förutom i Frankrike även mönster till England och Österrike. Efter en kortare studieresa till Tyskland blev han utpekad som tysk spion. De förföljelser som drabbade honom efter detta och den stora arbetsbördan i ateljén bröt ner hans hälsa varför han avvecklade sina affärer i Paris. Han flyttade till Italien 1886 med målsättningen att utbilda sig till konstnär. Han avled under en resa till Paris 1888.

Both these devices have 32GB of memory, both are there to store and easily transfer data. The first item from Kingston is a fast access SD or micro SD card ideal for videos. The second is a nice looking USB able to clip to your keychain or purse.
This is a 32GB Micro SD Card designed for the rapid acceptance and playing of video without frame drop in the latter and stutter in the former.
The figures are 90MB/s read and 45MB/s write so while you are recording to say your head cam while zooming across rough terrain in death defying action it is all being captured for your mates to enjoy and your mum to clip your round your ear for doing it in the first place.
These are available in 16GB, 32GB as I was sent, and 64GB. Just remember some older units cannot accept sizes above 32GB.
Ordinary Micro SD Cards are rated in speed so 10 is better than 4 as an example.
This is UHS (Ultra High Speed) so UHS 1 is 10MB/s and here UHS 3 is 30MB/s.
This means that this can capture full 4K video and burst still photography.
If you use a lower speed card for things like burst mode you will probably be disappointed at the results at best, and at worst it may not work at all.
So if you need faster capture speeds this is the card for you remember to look for UHS-1 speed class 3 on the card. A 32GB version as I was sent is available for £18.11.
While this is a 32GB USB stick it is also a 32GB Lightning stick yes it has two ends hence the name iKlips Duo.
A tad under 7cm long in its protection which is made of some sort of high quality silicone. At the USB end is a clip on ring to attach to your keyring etc. In the box is also an 8cm long leather strap that has a push on brass stud that can extend the fitting so that it does not need to be removed from the keyring even to access the most inaccessible of ports.
For those using 'i' devices there is a free App to download. Those using a PC or Laptop it works out of the box.
While this is a USB 3.1 Type A device, it is still compatible with USB 3 and USB 2. I copied just on 3000 files in 36 folders in 17 minutes and 30 seconds the total amount of data was just over 27GB. This left just under 2.4GB free.
The 32GB size as supplied to me is available for £47.99 from the link below.
More details on the iKlips Duo available from the link below.

Late Night Hosts So Disgusted By Harvey Weinstein Scandal They Refuse To Even Mention His Name
Entertainment · Oct 9, 2017 · BabylonBee.com
U.S. - Since the shocking revelation last week of Hollywood boss Harvey Weinstein's decades-long reign of habitual sexual harassment and assault on coworkers and associates, during which he allegedly paid off at least eight women to keep quiet about the abuse, a source close to the nation's most popular late night hosts revealed that they are all so disgusted by Weinstein's harmful and deviant actions that they refuse to even mention his name.
"Even though they lampooned people like Roger Ailes and Bill O'Reilly after similar allegations, what Weinstein has done is so grotesque and at odds with their values that they won't so much as utter his name on their shows," the source with direct access to Jimmy Kimmel, Seth Myers, Jimmy Fallon, Stephen Colbert, and James Corden said, adding that it is "utterly detestable" to them that one of the most powerful men in Hollywood used his immense wealth and influence to shame and silence his victims for three decades.
"Some of them tried to practice pieces on this scandal in their show rehearsals, and it was just too much for them. They ended up either too physically ill to continue, or in a puddle of tears out of grief for the many victims of this monster," he also revealed.
The anonymous source also added that Weinstein's vocal support of myriad liberal causes, his unabashed support of feminism, and his participation in activities such as women's marches, only made the scandal that much more horrendous - until it was more than the popular TV personalities could bear.
"They're just hoping their silence shames him," he added.

Finance Finance News Getting help from family for a first home could lead to financial trouble

Rod Myer YourSuper Editor
Despite the Turnbull government encouraging families to help their children into their first homes, relying on 'the bank of mum and dad' has serious pitfalls.
Research from the Reserve Bank of Australia has found that first home buyers getting help from family and friends was more likely to lead you into trouble than doing the hard yards of making your own way.
The RBA research showed that people using family help to buy a home had a 31 per cent likelihood of suffering financial stress, whereas the hardy souls who did it alone had only a 19 per cent likelihood of hitting trouble.
And of those who did tap family and friends to buy, 23 per cent had to go back for a top-up when things got tough later on. For those who did it alone, it was only 11 per cent.
The figures do not surprise David Simon, principal of independent financial planning group Integral and a bank employee for 16 years.
Mr Simon said a change in financial culture, partly driven by the banks, meant that younger people were getting loans when they were not financially or emotionally prepared to manage them.
"In the past, the banks demanded a significant deposit and evidence of your savings history and that was back when interest rates were over 7 per cent, not under 4 per cent," Mr Simon said.
"They wanted a 20 per cent deposit and proof that you saved it. You wouldn't get the deal if it came from friends and family.
"There was a significant relaxation of those rules from the mid 2000's."
Before the global financial crisis it was possible to get loans with deposits of as little as 5 per cent, he said.
As the following chart shows, those who did get help after making their purchase seem to have spent it on utilities and mortgage repayments. Those with help reported higher levels of stress in those categories than those without help.
But when it came to doing the hard stuff, those who did it alone led the way. They were more likely to have pawned a possession or gone without a meal than those who had help along the way. When it came to going on welfare or doing without heating, there was no difference between the groups.
The bank of mum and dad is growing in importance as house prices increase. The above chart shows that over 40 years the percentage of people getting help to buy property has more than doubled from 6.3 per cent to 13.9 per cent.
Given property prices have risen dramatically since 2014, the figures could have risen further.
Denis Nelthorpe, CEO of legal service West Justice, said: "There are two things happening. The costs of housing are so great that couples with very good jobs and prospects struggle to meet the mortgage criteria so banks are becoming a bit more understanding.
"The other thing is where this is possible, families are providing most of the deposit and people are struggling to meet the high mortgage payments week in, week out.
"The current climate is encouraging people to extend themselves more than they should and they need the assistance of parents."
Added to this is a report from investment bank UBS which found that 33 per cent of people were lying on mortgage applications which meant there was about $500 billion in loans based on false information.
"While household debt levels, elevated house prices and subdued income growth are well known, these findings suggest mortgagors are more stretched than the banks believe," UBS said.
That adds to the level of vulnerability of people in the face of interest rate increases or economic downturns.
