Multi-ethnic, abounding in enlightenment and biodiversity, Malaysia is both a place we wish to revisit and don't wish to spoil by being an "ugly tourist".
By "spoil" we meant minister to overdevelopment, thereby watering down a normal enlightenment or even destroying a inlet that brought we here in a initial place. "Ugly" tourism fails to honour a internal enlightenment or sourroundings and rather draws people usually for a weather, waves and levity on a wallet.

Ethical travel, on a other hand, does a reverse. The reliable traveller wants to give something behind – and we don't meant dull drink bottles or even some avocation giveaway shopping. The thought of reliable tourism is not usually to minimise a tourist's disastrous impact on a destination, yet to try to make things better. An reliable holiday in Malaysia can take a form of proffer vacations (volun-tourism), eco-tourism and tolerable travel. These categories can be distinct, yet can also overlie considerably.
Let's start with an reliable holiday activity in Malaysia that doesn't engage a implausible healthy beauty. Hard to believe? Read on.
The Downtown Night Market in a collateral Kuala Lumpur facilities hundreds of marketplace stalls that occupy or are owned by recuperating drug addicts. It was started by a recovered addict who wanted to emanate a plan to assistance ex-addicts stay clean. KL Downtown has now turn a city's largest night bazaar.
The Downtown Night Market is a good approach to do your holiday selling and assistance a locals assistance themselves.
Malaysia has opposite options for volun-tourism including operative on organic farms, volunteering during organizations that strengthen involved sea turtles from poachers, educational stays during orangutan reconstruction centers and more. These stints can be total with eco holidays. A stay during an organic plantation competence follow or convey a jungle trek or stream expedition. Some diving schools incorporate operative with turtle charge projects into their activities.

Other examples of volun-tourism embody training English in multiple with environmental recognition and there are internships/positions accessible that can final several months. Alternatively another instance would be to revisit an void island to observe seahorses and widespread recognition of their plight.
A illusory classification and apparatus for volun-tourism as good as reliable transport and eco-travel in Malaysia is Wild Asia. Other useful links include Kahang Organic Rice Eco Farm and Bubbles Dive Resort.
A homestay in a normal encampment is a good approach of experiencing a authentic, nation lives of Malaysia's genealogical cultures. Your appreciation and financial support encourages these villages to safety their approach of life. It's also a good approach to see how these normal communities live harmoniously with inlet and to conclude their abounding internal biodiversity.
Homestays can also be total with rainforest camping, jungle movement and rafting trips. See Peraya Homestay for some-more information.
Though reduction romantic in nature, yet high in environmental recognition are stays in Malaysia's eco-lodges and identical resorts. These holidays are ideal for those peaceful to spend a small some-more who maybe don't wish to severe it by volunteering or embracing a normal encampment lifestyle. However these people still caring about Malaysia's implausible inlet and wish to knowledge it in ethical style and comfort.

Rainforest lodges are situated in healthy parks surrounded by Malaysia's pleasant rainforest. Other forms of eco-resorts embody lush island accommodation on beaches adjacent to mangrove forests and even floating resorts located off a coast.
All rainforest lodges and eco resorts are tighten to inlet and offer plenty opportunities to observe wildlife, such as orangutans, and attend in several nature-based activities like jungle trekking, swimming, rafting, diving and snorkeling.
See Eco Tropical Resorts and Bagus Place for some good rainforest and eco-lodge ideas.
Most (though not all) of a above varieties of reliable tourism engage Malaysia's astoundingly biodiverse healthy environment. Malaysia is believed to enclose around 20 percent of a world's animal class with a high commission of autochthonous species. Two thirds to 3 buliding of a nation are lonesome in forestland. Tourism that encourages a refuge of this different biodiversity is inherently ethical. This means holding advantage of Malaysia's 26 inhabitant parks and countless state parks and inlet reserves.
Use it (ethically) or remove it!

Bill Engvall Brings Laughs To Casino New Brunswick On Friday Night
"Here's your sign."
These are three seemingly innocuous words that have taken on a whole different meaning thanks to comedian Bill Engvall.
A Grammy nominated, multi-platinum selling recording artist, Engvall is one of the biggest comedians in America, continuing to go strong more than 35 years after getting his start at an improv night in Dallas.
"I can honestly say that I never saw comedy as a career," Engvall says during an interview from his home in Southern California. "I was never really the class clown type. I was always afraid of getting caught. I was more the instigator, if anything.
"A buddy and I found ourselves at an open mic night at a comedy club in Dallas one night in the late 70's, early 80's and with a little liquid encouragement, I ended up going on stage for five minutes and just talked about living in Dallas. I had absolutely nothing prepared, but at the end of the night, the lady who ran the club approached me and asked if I'd be interested in being the house MC. I stayed there for three years and had the opportunity to learn from the very best."
Engvall fans might be surprised to learn that had comedy not fallen into his lap, his career plans would have been drastically different:
"I actually wanted to be a doctor but then realized that I tend to pass out at the sight of blood, which, let's face it, is not a good trait to have as a doctor. I ended up going to college and briefly considered becoming a teacher, which could have been a comedic act in its own right.
"Instead, I chose to pursue the comedy thing which seemed to fit well with my life at the time: I got to work at night and sleep in late. It was perfect," Engvall says.
While he might have cut his teeth on stages in Dallas, Engvall eventually picked up his life and moved to Los Angeles, a city that some might argue has deeper comedy roots compared to his Texas hometown.
"I came from Dallas where there really wasn't anything in the way of competition and found myself in Los Angeles, where people would stand in line on amateur night, hoping to get their five minutes on stage.
"I ended up working securing regular work at the Improv in L.A., but was only getting stage time after 12:30 at night. I remember walking up to the owner and telling him how much I appreciated the opportunity but that I had an 18 month old child at home and my set time was posing a bit of a problem to me contributing to the family. Just like that, I began getting spots at 8:30, 9:00 in the evening instead. Other comics looked at me like I had somehow had a miracle performed when in fact it was as simple as asking," he says.
Engvall's star would continue to rise from there.
In 1992, Engvall won the award for Best Male Standup at the American Comedy Awards. Just a short time after having been a part of ABC's short-lived series Delta, Engvall was signed to Warner Bros. Records.
His first release for the label, 1996's Here's Your Sign, caught on like wildfire across the country, helping solidify his star power with audiences from coast to coast. The album has surpassed more than one million units sold in the United States alone.
At the turn of the century, Engvall's stock rose even higher after he joined his friends Jeff Foxworthy, Larry The Cable Guy and Ron White on the successful Blue Collar Comedy Tour, selling more than 9 million films and even scoring a Grammy Award nomination.
Asked if there are any plans to rejoin his peers and take the Blue Collar Comedy team back on the road, Engvall says he has learned never to say never.
"Being on the road with those guys was an absolute blast but it also served as an incredible means to keep you on your game. Every night you walked on that stage, you had to bring your 'A' game. As a performer, you didn't want to get buried by anybody or be the low guy on the totem pole, especially because we were all very good with what we did.
"In many ways though, I think the Blue Collar Comedy thing was a perfect storm of sorts. I don't think that any of us could have known we would be performing in front of 10,000 people a night. It was just the right thing at the right time and you always want to leave people wanting more."
In the meantime, Engvall is more than content to be filling his schedule with solo performances. He expresses gratitude for the fact that he can largely dictate his schedule, ensuring he has a consistent work-life balance.
Now in his late 50's, Engvall says that he has learned to stop sweating the small stuff.
"I've gotten to a point in my life where if something happens, I'm grateful and if it doesn't, that's okay too. When you're younger, you're more apt to chase leads down but for the time being, I'm more than happy to continue doing stand-up. I am just so fortunate to be able to do what I love, and have people show up to hear what I've got to say."

A textbook dilemma: Digital or paper?
Do we learn better from printed books than digital versions? The answer from researchers is a qualified yes
The Science of Learning
Column by Claudia Wallis
This story also appeared in KQED
My friend Joanne was packing her youngest child off to college this month and wrestling with a modern dilemma: Is it better to buy textbooks in digital form or old-fashioned print? One of her son's professors was recommending an online text for a business course: lighter, always accessible and seriously cheaper ($88 vs. $176 for a 164-page book). But Joanne's instinct was that her son would "learn better" from a printed volume, free of online distractions, and with pages he could dog-ear, peruse in any order, and inscribe with marginal notes. Her son was inclined to agree.
Research suggests that students retain more details when studying from printed text rather than a screen. Credit: Hero Images
Many of us book lovers cherish the tactile qualities of print, but some of this preference is emotional or nostalgic. Do reading and note-taking on paper offer any measurable advantages for learning? Given the high cost of hard-backed textbooks, is it wiser to save the money and the back strain by going digital?
You might think that, decades into the digital revolution, we would have a clear answer to this question. Wrong. Earlier this year educational psychologist Patricia Alexander, a literacy scholar at the University of Maryland, published a thorough review of recent research on the topic. She was "shocked," she says, to find that out of 878 potentially relevant studies published between 1992 and 2017, only 36 directly compared reading in digital and in print and measured learning in a reliable way. (Many of the other studies zoomed in on aspects of e-reading, such as eye movements or the merits of different kinds of screens.)
Aside from pointing up a blatant need for more research, Alexander's review, co-authored with doctoral student Lauren Singer and appearing in Review of Educational Research, affirmed at least one practical finding: if you are reading something lengthy – more than 500 words or more than a page of the book or screen – your comprehension will likely take a hit if you're using a digital device. The finding was supported by numerous studies and held true for students in college, high school and grade school.
Research suggests that the explanation is at least partly the greater physical and mental demands of reading on a screen: the nuisance of scrolling, and the tiresome glare and flicker of some devices. There may be differences in the concentration we bring to a digital environment, too, where we are accustomed to browsing and multitasking. And some researchers have observed that working your way through a print volume leaves spatial impressions that stick in your mind (for instance, the lingering memory of where a certain passage or diagram appeared in a book).
Of 878 potentially relevant studies published between 1992 and 2017, only 36 directly compared reading in digital to reading in print, and measured learning in a reliable way.
Alexander and Singer have done their own studies of the digital versus print question. In a 2016 experiment they asked 90 undergraduates to read short informational texts (about 450 words) on a computer and in print. Due to the length, no scrolling was required, but there still was a difference in how much they absorbed. The students performed equally well in describing the main idea of the passages no matter the medium, but when asked to list additional key points and recall further details, the print readers had the edge.
Curiously, the students themselves were unaware of this advantage. In fact, after answering comprehension questions, 69% said they believed they had performed better after reading on a computer. Researchers call this failure of insight poor "calibration."
The point of such research, as Alexander herself notes, is not to anoint a winner in a contest between digital and print. We all swim in a sea of electronic information and there's no turning back the tide.
"The core question," Alexander said in an interview, is "when is a reader best served by a particular medium. And what kind of readers? What age? What kind of text are we talking about? All of those elements matter a great deal."
On top of that, we all could do with a lot more self-awareness about how we learn from reading.
For example, a big reason that students in the study thought they learned better from digital text is that they moved more quickly in that medium. Research by Alexander and others has confirmed this faster pace. "They assume that because they were going faster, they understood it better," Alexander observes. "It's an illusion."
If students become aware of this illusion, they can make better choices. Just as they might decide to turn off social media alerts while studying an online textbook, they might want to consciously slow themselves down when reading for deep meaning. On the other hand, when reading for pleasure or surface information, they can let 'er rip.
Digital text makes it easy for students to copy and paste key passages into a document for further study, but there is little research on how this compares with taking notes by hand.
"They assume that because they were going faster [reading digitally], they understood it better. It's an illusion."
Patricia Alexander, literacy scholar at the University of Maryland
"We study things like highlighting and underlining," Alexander says, "but those kind of motor responses have never been of highest value in terms of text-processing strategies" – whether done with a cursor or a marker. The studying strategy with "the greatest power," she adds, involves deeply questioning the text — asking yourself if you agree with the author, and why or why not.
Dutch scholar Joost Kircz points out that these are still early days for digital reading, and new and better formats will continue to emerge. In his view, the linear format of a traditional book is well suited for narratives but not necessarily ideal for academic texts or scientific papers.
"In narrative prose fiction, the author strictly determines the reading path," he and co-author August Hans Den Boef write in The Unbound Book, a collection of essays about the future of reading. "But in a digital environment we can easily enable a plurality of reading paths in educational and scholarly texts."
In addition to the hyperlinks, video and audio that currently enhance many digital texts, Kircz would like to see innovations such as multiple types of hyperlinks, perhaps in a rainbow of colors that denote specific purposes (annotation, elaboration, contrary views, media, etc.). He also imagines digital books that could enable a variety of paths through a body of work. Not all information is linear or even layered, he told me: "There's a lot of information that's spherical. You cannot stack it up. The question is to what extent can we mimic human understanding?"
While we await those future digital products, students deciding what school books to buy this fall would do well to ask themselves just what they hope to get from the text. As Alexander notes, "If I'm only trying to learn something that's going to be covered on a test and the test is shallow in nature, then [digital] is just fine." If, on the other hand, you hope to dive in deeply and gather imperishable pearls, spring for the book.

I consider this report timely, indeed, not to mention informative. Such a decision--digital vs. paper--is not just a decision that young(er) students may make either. It should be given serious consideration by educational agencies that purport to help teachers teach. Three very recent Frameworks (Think blueprints for curriculum.) have been published by the California Department of Education (CDE): History-Social Science, at 985 pages; English Language Arts/English Language Development (ELA/ELD), at 1073 pages, and Science at 1800+ pages. Because of the size of these guides, the CDE makes them available electronically only. When I priced a hard copy of the ELA/ELD Framework at a local copy place, I was told: $225. Because of my connection with my local university, CSULB, I got it for (only!) $75.

Offering Peace and Forgiveness is available in PDF format and Word document format. You can find our permission to print these pamphlets at the Participatory Study Series index.
This tract presents the ministry of reconciliation and emphasizes the importance of forgiveness--our need to forgive others and ourselves and to be forgiven. It is designed to be printed on 8 1/2 x 14 paper and folded in four.
Sharing peace and forgiveness is also known as the ministry of reconciliation. It is described in 2 Corinthians 5:18 and 19. Standing in for a person - identifying yourself as another person so you can express or request forgiveness, or ask repentance. It has roots in the Biblical idea of collective repentance (Daniel 9, for example) and of standing in the gap (Ezekiel 22:30).
Does someone need to ask for forgiveness before I can forgive them?
Carrying unforgiveness around in your heart hurts both you and the person you have not forgiven. Even if you are not asked, you can release that bitterness, receive healing, and be free of the situation.
It is important to be reconciled with the offended party, which takes his or her cooperation. But even without that cooperation you can be free by forgiving before you are asked.
What if I just can't forgive someone?
As God has shown us grace and mercy, we should show it to others. As God has forgiven us, we should forgive others (Matthew 6:14, 15).
When it is too difficult for us to do this we need to ask for the Holy Spirit to enable us to do so. The Holy Spirit will produce in us the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22, 23).
If I forgive someone does this cancel the consequences?
When God forgives us, this doesn't remove us from the world, or keep us from the effects of our sin or that of others. It does release us to continue to grow and build.
Often people feel as though they cannot take any action once they have forgiven. It is better, in fact, not to take any action before we have forgiven. Forgiveness clears the air. It removes the element of revenge. It lets us deal only with the actual problem, not with our burden of guilt and bitterness.
Forgiveness frees us to deal effectively with any situation.
What is the benefit of speaking forgiveness?
If we can, we should speak forgiveness to the person who wronged us. If that is not possible, speaking publicly and releasing the offense we feel will help us to do so sincerely and completely.
In the Bible, the spoken word is very powerful. God "speaks things that are not as though they are," (Romans 4:17). In creation God spoke and it happened! Moses and Aaron were told that by commanding, they would bring forth water for the people (Numbers 20:8). Words of blessing or cursing taken very seriously, as were words of blessing.
When a person speaks a blessing to a person who is standing in for someone who has offended them, he or she makes it clear that the words are sincere. Persons engaged in reconciliation ministry often find that a person can say "Of course I can forgive ___" but when asked to look a person in the eye and say, "I forgive you" they have trouble.
This also applies to forgiving yourself. Don't just decide to do so. Speak it in front of someone as a witness.
What is the value of standing in for someone , or for a group of people, and requesting forgiveness?
This action allows the person to express the forgiveness directly. It is a prayer that the person will be led to seek forgiveness for their action, though you can only directly bring release to the person who is present and speaking.
Especially when this is done for a group, it is a prophetic action. (See above concerning the benefits of speaking.) Repeat it as often as is possible and necessary.
If the person you are standing in for is dead, you can still allow release for the person offering the forgiveness.
Should someone who has been angry with God speak forgiveness to God? Isn't this irreverent?
God doesn't need our forgiveness, but we need to release the anger and bitterness against God just as much as we do against another person. It is not sufficient just to say that there is no justification for our anger against God; we need to release that anger and formally accept God's will.
Many people have been released to new love, praise and service to God after having spoken this kind of forgiveness.
How do I go about helping others to speak forgiveness and reconciliation?
Always pray for the guidance of the Holy Spirit, listen for it, and follow it.
Find out who the person needs to forgive, and what needs to be forgiven. Stand in for multiple people as necessary.
If the person has difficulty giving the forgiveness, continue to pray for grace for that person to be able to forgive.
Thank the person for their forgiveness once it is offered.
Pray for the offender, or have the person pray for him or her.
Offer praise and thanksgiving to God for His salvation, grace and mercy.
Is speaking forgiveness a guarantee that it is genuine?
Sometimes a person forgives without really acknowledging the hurt. You might feel that forgiveness has been offered too easily. Pray for guidance as to whether there is more to be said.


Disclaimer: This is MY personal journey, I'm in no way suggesting that what works for me will work for you. My hope is that it will get you thinking about things you may not have considered. Also, this is NOT to replace any medical treatment you are or will be receiving, please continue with any medications and therapies you are currently undertaking. Everything I did was AS WELL AS my neurology, GP and Psychology appointments. Please consult a doctor before starting any exercise programme.
Sorry this post has been a bit delayed but due to appointments and the glorious sunshine we've had recently, I was making the most of it by watching the birds in the garden and bothering the bulls in the field across the road.
The body, we all have one that functions with varying degrees of success, mine used to be lean and mean thanks to roller derby and running but when my accident happened I went from enjoying regular exercise to being what I called 'The Slug'. I had no energy to sit upright on the sofa never mind moving with any sort of speed or agility. There was also the brain injury staple of apathy. Apathy is annoying, no other way around it. It gives you lots of ideas of things to do but then tells you that you don't want to do any of them. I still have apathy to varying degrees and my activity levels are now 'my get up and gone'.
Body has been the simplest but hardest (in some ways) part of recovery. I've known exactly what I needed to do but it just wouldn't happen. This is partly due to fear. My trauma makes me believe MOVEMENT IS BAD, I was exercising when it happened so any activity beyond a shuffle became a DANGER ZONE. That voice has been very powerful and hasn't completely gone yet.
Here's my list of helpful Body stuff I do/tolerate to keep on moving forwards. Again, like Mind I threw lots at myself and kept what stuck.
I used to run up hills for fun, I actually enjoyed running and doing it off road meant I mingled in the beautiful scenery whilst getting fit. Now I wouldn't even attempt a hill but I do occasionally drag myself out down the lane near the house and run past the sheep. When I first attempted running again post injury it was hilarious, I ran like I was made of wood, arms pinned to my sides, shoulders up to my ears and my head rigid. I was afraid that moving my head whilst running would cause another bleed. I did about half a mile stiff as a board and fretted the whole next day that the aching I was experiencing meant that I'd broken something. BUT, I DID it!
I don't run half as often as I'd like, it still takes some build up to do it but the notion is pretty much always there in my head and when I do manage it, it feels great.
Well duh yeah! Movement, we all move every day but I'm talking more about purposeful movement. For a long time I didn't move, I couldn't move, I was terrified. I was permanently hunched and squished up. As I got better I began to get braver and actually went for a walk round the block, jogged up the stairs, moved my head. I read a lot of books on trauma that all mentioned how it gets trapped in the body (particularly the pelvic region), movement helps to push it through and out. So when the fancy takes me I have a little dance in the house or do some crazy hip rolls and thrusts, it's not pretty, it looks funny but it does the job. I even purposely spread my arms out and stretch them as far as I can to give myself permission to take up more space. Trauma makes you physically and mentally curl up into a ball, taking up space shows my body it's safe to be bigger and present in the world.
I wrote a whole blog post on this subject here but this is just delightful. Walking in nature in silence and really being in the Now is comforting, joyful and reconnects you. You spend a lot of time in outer space after trauma, walking through woods and fields and meadows is an umbilical cord back to the earth. Try it, you'll love it.
Self explanatory, a good massage loosens tension and trauma in the muscles and again it's another great connector. It makes you aware of your body as a solid, physical object instead of the disconnect you have felt. This reminds me of an exercise I found in a book (Waking the Tiger by Peter Levine) that I still do on occasions when I'm starting to float away again. He said that when you have a shower touch each body part in turn and say for example "This is my head, hello head, I can feel you" etc. it sounds daft but after having no connection to yourself it's a great way of feeling present and reminding your brain that you have a solid body.
This is another thing that people don't get told. After brain injury your senses can go crazy, the common ones seem to be eyes and ears. It's like you get super powered hearing and vision. My hearing is so sensitive now, I can hear EVERYTHING, it's not that great because it tires me out and can hurt when it becomes too much. Always carry sunglasses and earplugs. They are great for helping to prevent overwhelm when everything gets too loud or bright.
All hail the nap! Napping is a great weapon, don't ever think because you're an adult you shouldn't nap. Nonsense. As long as your naps don't interfere with your main sleep do them when you need to (as soon as you start finding it difficult to sleep at night, stop the naps for a while, unless you have chronic insomnia and need a bit of a catch up). Try not to nap after 3pm and try to restrict it to no more than half an hour. They are great for topping up your battery and can really help with fatigue, mood, energy and general coping skills. Sleep can be an elusive beast after brain injury (too much, too little and still being tired when you wake) so use the nap to help you. I napped LOADS post surgery and still have them now when I start to feel the drag in my energy. It takes a while to understand your energy use so trial and error with this and you'll eventually get there.
This is a recent thing for me, I go to a local PIlates class. It's a small group in a small hall. Perfect for socially anxious me. When I first went I thought "an exercise class where I can lie down with my eyes shut listening to relaxing music, JACKPOT!" Do not be fooled, Pilates works you hard. It's helping to unwind and wake up my muscles again after so long in hibernation. The two days after my first class felt like I'd been sat on by an elephant but I went back and there's real value in my body and me getting to know each other again.
The next post is the last in the Trilogy and will cover Spirit.
My last post was about our charity attempt at running in the Belfast marathon. Well, we did it! We raised a lot of money that will be going to the Community Brain Injury team that have helped myself and many others navigate the confusing terrain of brain Injury.
So I write to you today a bit achy, a bit tired and a mixture of happy, proud, relieved and grateful. I was posting pictures on Facebook and Twitter from the day and it got me thinking about what the outside world sees and how sometimes that is far removed from the reality of things (not just for me, I suspect we all put our happy, sorted and confident photos onto social media). It is nice to see people enjoying themselves but can be quite demoralising if you're having an overwhelming day and think you're not matching up to their lives. Tip 1: NEVER use social media to compare yourself to others, what other people post up there is only a snapshot of what's going on, they get sad, frustrated and lonely too!
It occurred to me that there may be some dissonance between pictures people see of me and what is really happening in my day. There may even be some mutterings of 'she's not sick/recovering/ suffering, look at her there, dressed and outside'.
well these can make it seem like I've got it together and I'm 'better'.
But as I've mentioned in previous posts brain injury without any obvious physical impairment is very much an 'invisible' disability. What people don't realise is the amount of work that has gone in BEFORE these photos were taken.
It starts as an idea maybe weeks before it actually happens, there will be some days where myself and Mr Braingirl go to do what we've planned and anxiety or fatigue may have other ideas so back onto the planning stage it goes. So we wait for another 'opening'. When we finally make it out of the door (usually with some lingering anxiety) we have to be able to park near to where we need to be, we also can't plan for a full day – I get too tired, so we have to fit all we need to into a few hours.
Once we've made it through the obstacles we take photos, because it's nice to take photos and make memories but it's nice to have them to share with my friends and family and to also say "LOOK, LOOK I DID IT TODAY!" ( how sweet that is!). If you're reading this and you follow me on twitter or Facebook and get to see my photos please try to imagine the strength it took to get that photo and be happy for me, encourage me. I'm happy when I post them, I look at them many many times because It feeds the part of me that bulldozes through regardless, it nourishes the nature loving, go get 'em bit of me that was lost for so long.
That bit is returning slowly, evidenced by lacing up my trainers on Monday and running in the rain and wind and cold a distance further than I have ever run before. A distance that I did despite the Mumu of Injury talking to me all the way through telling me I was damaging myself and I wasn't safe. I ran anyway and I think that has to be a metaphor for the whole recovery process, a brain injury IS a marathon, not a sprint and sometimes you may have to stop for water and a rest but keep following the route and eventually you'll reach the finish line.
Run and don't you ever let things stop you.
I'm taking a brief sidestep today to write about a little thing myself and other brain injury survivors are doing next month (5th May).
We are going to run in the Belfast marathon.
Admittedly we're not all doing the whole 26 miles, we're running as a relay so will do a leg each. But still this is a huge thing for all of us. I readily admit I'm petrified. It's going to be a long, tiring day. There's going to be thousands of people there, it's a bit of a baptism of fire. I have moments of realisation and get scared and wonder if I can stay in bed instead.
I'm hoping for nice weather and a good mood that day, that's all I need to power through. If I don't sleep very well the night before my anxiety will rocket. This will make it slightly more difficult than I'd like it to be. But as I'm forever trying to tell myself, I can't speculate on what ifs anymore, they have a tendency to be negative.
We are running as The Brainwaves, and got a lovely logo made up by the amazing Gary Erskine (comic book artist extraordinaire and friend of roller girls everywhere) whom I admire and respect so much. This will be on our team t-shirts, so if you watch you'll spot us.
The marathon was a target we set ourselves, for me it'll be an extremely cathartic moment. A time for me to say 'I blooming well did it'. It was only a few months ago I was scared to run, I went on my first jog post op and ran like I was made out of wood, too scared to move in case I jiggled my brain about. All the brain Injury survivors in this team have had to overcome many obstacles to get to this point, it's a real test for us. I am so proud to be part of it.


It feels like the last day of this little experiment called 31 Days of Dogs. Maybe because I've already written the last post for tomorrow.
I feel sad that this is coming to an end, even though I did it as sort of a joke with Nancy Franson, who very sweetly bought me the book "E.B. White on Dogs" when she was in Martha's Vineyard. I am no E.B. White, but I love the way he wrote about his dogs. This was my attempt to step into his shoes.
I sincerely hope I didn't unduly influence anyone reading this to actually go out and get a dog (or two). Polo and Clover are 4 1/2. I haven't written about the trials of puppyhood because those are in the past.
At the moment, they are standing at the foot of our pecan tree, staring up hopefully. Pecan trees only shed their nuts every other year; this is not a nut year. Clover and Polo continue to wait. They must remember last year's harvest. Surely, they must think, If am patient and still, manna will fall from heaven.
It's muggy outside, muggy and warm. The puppies have joined me indoors.
If it rains, we'll all get excited and go back out, but more than likely, the clouds and 81 percent humidity will just tempt us and hit Austin or Kerrville instead. It's easy to think Fredericksburg is being judged. A couple of weeks ago, Austin had record rains—10 inches. We had 2, maybe, depending on which end of town you live in.
But Polo and Clover are happy. Their inside dog bed is a pink sleeping bag my mom bought for my daughter years ago. It's very soft, and I recently moved it under the big desk. I don't know why I didn't move it there sooner, what with dogs liking the whole feel of a den.
So, they are at my feet, and I am working and drinking Tazo's China green tips tea. Everything is waiting for rain.
This morning, the sky was cloudy—no moon, no stars. Polo and Clover didn't seem to mind. We did the loop around Lower Crabapple, traveling counterclockwise so the walk was mostly uphill.
I always listen to a podcast while we walk. I've been going to sleep each night with a chapter from the Harry Potter audiobooks, as read by the fantastic Jim Daly. If I fall asleep during the chapter (as I did last night), I listen to it in full in the morning on our walk.
I'm in the "Prisoner of Azkaban" right now, which includes a certain black, mysterious dog. So far, he hasn't shown up. If he does, I'll look closely, just in case he's not really a dog but a person in disguise.
Today is cool and cloudy with mist—a fine Scottish morning (here in the Texas Hill Country). And my dogs must have some of that good blood in them because they cannot be coaxed inside. So this Drummond lass has joined them on the back porch with a pitcher of Greenbelt tea.
It turns out that Polo and Clover are deathly afraid of the sound of bubble wrap being popped.
It looks like the 2013 dog calendars are all gone (what with it being October and all). But there are still plenty of 2013 cat calendars.
I'm doing research for an article on the 20-year anniversary of the Cameron Park Zoo in Waco, Texas, and they have a big emphasis on enrichment—activities that stimulate the animals either mentally, physically, emotionally or socially.
Which makes me wonder, how are Polo and Clover doing on the enrichment scale?
I do vary the routes of our walks, so that means a variety of feral cats and white-tailed deer. Once we walked in the daylight and they saw a cow! They were ready to take her down and have a barbecue right there in the middle of Lower Crabapple Road (sans fire).
This time of year, I leave a door open so Polo and Clover can come in and out all day. I would think they would get tired of the same old squirrels, but they never do. Thursdays are exciting because that's when the trash truck comes down the alley. There have been a succession of dogs that have come and gone in our neighbor's yards, each one providing new opportunities for socialization. And there always seem to be certain people who like to get their exercise walking down our alley. I guess they think it's safer, but actually, they're in mortal danger if Major, the dog behind us, ever manages to scale his fence.
This morning, I slept in, which I almost never do. Clover's idea of enrichment was to leap into bed with me and then go back to sleep as soon as she was sure she had awakened me. Polo stayed cuddled quietly with our daughter, although when I opened the door at 7 a.m., she ran out as fast as she could. Humans only enrich her for a limited amount of time before she's ready to take on the backyard.
At the moment, Polo and Clover are both outside, enjoying the cool sunshine.

Energetic Start-Up
Entrepreneurship competition picks a winner
June 01, 2011 | May - Jun 2011 issue
Renewed purpose: yesterday's water tower,
tomorrow's generator.
HyTower Energy Storage, an idea for a company that would make electrical generators out of abandoned water towers, won the eleventh annual Duke Start-up Challenge this spring. Created by graduate students Will Fadrhonc, Tripp Hyde, and Matt Kaufmann—enrolled in the Nicholas School of the Environment, the Pratt School of Engineering, and the Fuqua School of Business, respectively—HyTower beat out a record 110 other competitors and won the $50,000 grand prize, which will be used as seed money for the business.
The contest has three parts. In November, teams made "elevator pitches," or short descriptions of their companies' virtues, in the first round of the competition. In February, teams competed in a second round of executive pitches, after which the field was narrowed to seven for a final round.
Judges for this year's final round included several alumni: Melissa Bernstein '87, cofounder and co-owner of toy company Melissa & Doug (and the subject of a mini-profile in the March-April 2011 Duke Magazine); Geoff Kanter '89, managing director of MK Media Ventures; and Tom McMurray B.S.M.E. '76, M.S. '78, Ph.D. '80, chair and president of Marine Ventures Foundation. The final event's keynote speaker was J.B. Pritzker '87, an entrepreneur and venture capitalist and leader of the Pritzker Group.
A $10,000 runner-up prize was given to 70Sesame, a team that developed a group-messaging system for the Chinese market.


This morning at 7:31 a.m. EST an Indian Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) successfully launched from the Satish Dhawan Space Center in Sriharikota carrying seven satellites into orbit including four Canadian built satellites.
The launch was originally scheduled for 7:26 a.m. EST but was delayed 5 minutes to avoid debris in the orbital path of the rocket.
The primary payload for the launch was the Indian-French joint venture SARAL (409kg) earth observation small satellite.
The secondary payload included Canada's Sapphire, a small satellite (148kg) and NEOSSat, a microsatellite (74kg), UniBRITE (14kg) and BRITE (14kg) which are Canadian built microsatellites for the University of Vienna and Technical University, the Danish AAUSAT3 (3kg) nanosatellite, and the UK's STRaND-1 (6.5kg), a nanosatellite.
All seven satellites were placed in their proper orbits and after a check-out will go into service.
"Today's successful launch is a great accomplishment made possible by Canadian specialized expertise and technology that has literally pushed the boundaries of innovation. As NEOSSat becomes fully operational, the satellite will provide us with key data and imagery from the unique vantage point of space to become our Sentinel in the Sky" said Gilles Leclerc, Acting President of the CSA.


The article in Paul's new post is an unusually thorough recounting of the genesis of a house, and its trials up to the present time.
This sentence draws my attention: "Tafel was also instrumental in saving Wright's house in Minnesota." Did Tafel restore Lovness, Willey, Neils, Olfelt, Bulbulian, Keys, McBean, or Elam ?
SDR , did you consider that he could have been involved in saving parts of the Little house? I don't know that , but might be a reasonable possibility.
Good point, Sequoia. In fact, Tafel devotes the final pages of "Apprentice to Genius" to the house and to his part in salvaging portions of it. He misspells Lovness but can be forgiven, under the circumstances . . .?
The kitchen ceiling is rather mysterious. There's a rare example of mitered-corner art in a bedroom . . .
The Little living room could hardly "exemplify a Prairie house room," other than as a magnificent exception ?
Of all the places for a downspout, the worst possible was chosen. Reminds me of the one at Dana (post restoration), running down the 'prow' stair tower of the gallery, which was eventually removed.
So -- two other options: a rain chain into a basin of gravel, feeding a subsurface drain -- or a gargoyle-sprit shooting the water out along a diagonal from the corner, captured by an elongated receptacle, perhaps in the form of a wedge-shaped opening in the paving ?
Or . . . the owner could forbid it to rain on his property -- I suppose. I wonder what the fine print is on that . . .
Let the rain fall where it may, and live with the fallout. Houses left out in the rain should not be afraid of showing wear.
Right. The only issue of concern is how the ground around the house receives the water . . . and keeps it away from foundations, and cellars if any ?

In Somalia, Covid-19 vaccines are distant as virus spreads
January 3, 2021 Rutuja Mishra Trending 0
As richer countries race to distribute Covid-19 vaccines, Somalia remains the rare place where much of the population hasn't taken the coronavirus seriously. Some fear that's proven to be deadlier than anyone knows.
"Certainly our people don't use any form of protective measures, neither masks nor social distancing," Abdirizak Yusuf Hirabeh, the government's Covid-19 incident manager, said in an interview. "If you move around the city (of Mogadishu) or countrywide, nobody even talks about it." And yet infections are rising, he said.
It is places like Somalia, the Horn of Africa nation torn apart by three decades of conflict, that will be last to see Covid-19 vaccines in any significant quantity. With part of the country still held by the al-Qaida-linked al-Shabab extremist group, the risk of the virus becoming endemic in some hard-to-reach areas is strong — a fear for parts of Africa amid the slow arrival of vaccines.
"There is no real or practical investigation into the matter," said Hirabeh, who is also the director of the Martini hospital in Mogadishu, the largest treating Covid-19 patients, which saw seven new patients the day he spoke. He acknowledged that neither facilities nor equipment are adequate in Somalia to tackle the virus.
Leeds beats Burnley 1-0 after 2 contentious penalty calls
Fewer than 27,000 tests for the virus have been conducted in Somalia, a country of more than 15 million people, one of the lowest rates in the world. Fewer than 4,800 cases have been confirmed, including at least 130 deaths.
Some worry the virus will sink into the population as yet another poorly diagnosed but deadly fever.
For 45-year-old street beggar Hassan Mohamed Yusuf, that fear has turned into near certainty. "In the beginning we saw this virus as just another form of the flu," he said.
Then three of his young children died after having a cough and high fever. As residents of a makeshift camp for people displaced by conflict or drought, they had no access to coronavirus testing or proper care.
At the same time, Yusuf said, the virus hurt his efforts to find money to treat his family as "we can't get close enough" to people to beg.
Early in the pandemic, Somalia's government did attempt some measures to limit the spread of the virus, closing all schools and shutting down all domestic and international flights. Mobile phones rang with messages about the virus.
But social distancing has long disappeared in the country's streets, markets or restaurants. On Thursday, some 30,000 people crammed into a stadium in Mogadishu for a regional football match with no face masks or other anti-virus measures in sight.
Mosques in the Muslim nation never faced restrictions, for fear of the reactions.
"Our religion taught us hundreds of years ago that we should wash our hands, faces and even legs five times every day and our women should take face veils as they're often weaker. So that's the whole prevention of the disease, if it really exists," said Abdulkadir Sheikh Mohamud, an imam in Mogadishu.
"I left the matter to Allah to protect us," said Ahmed Abdulle Ali, a shop owner in the capital. He attributed the rise in coughing during prayers to the changing of seasons.
A more important protective factor is the relative youth of Somalia's people, said Dr. Abdurahman Abdullahi Abdi Bilaal, who works in a clinic in the capital. More than 80% of the country's population is under age 30.
"The virus is here, absolutely, but the resilience of people is owing to age," he said.
It's the lack of post-mortem investigations in the country that are allowing the true extent of the virus to go undetected, he said.
The next challenge in Somalia is not simply obtaining Covid-19 vaccines but also persuading the population to accept them.
That will take time, "just the same as what it took for our people to believe in the polio or measles vaccines," a concerned Bilaal said.
Hirabeh, in charge of Somalia's virus response, agreed that "our people have little confidence in the vaccines," saying that many Somalis hate the needles. He called for serious awareness campaigns to change minds.
The logistics of any Covid-19 vaccine rol lout are another major concern. Hirabeh said Somalia is expecting the first vaccines in the first quarter of 2021, but he worries that the country has no way to handle a vaccine like the Pfizer one that requires being kept at a temperature of minus 70 degrees Celsius.
"One that could be kept between minus 10 and minus 20 might suit the Third World like our country," he said.

With it's unique production process, the tip maintains high porosity in the pig skin, allowing the Kamui cue tip to hold chalk very well. They are made by compressing ten layers of pig skin to create the best cue tip on the market today. Each layer is carefully laminated, creating uniform quality and performance. This lamination and compression process allows us to be a competitive force.....more than the industry standard. Kamui II pool cue tips come in soft, medium soft, medium and hard.
Kamui Black (ss 65.5, s 69.6, m 75, h 81.9 $45.00) The "KB's"......are specially selected 100% pig skin. The leather is tanned by a special moisture-proof tannin, giving the 'Kamui Black' it's black color and making it 'humidity resistant'! 'Kamui Japan' found a way to apply this process without interfering with the porosity, adding more elasticity to the KB cue Tip and protecting it from the environment.
What you should expect from the Kamui Black Tip...longer durability and more elasticity allowing more spin on the cue ball without overstroking. KB's have the same ability to grip onto chalk as Kamui II. To see these amazing tips in action visit www.kamuitips.com/video and to see all the cool Kamui 'stuff' visit www.kamuitips.com/store.
VACULAM lamination process, MADE IN USA!!
Onyx - LTD®laminated cue tips (m 73-76) (medium boar hide) $45.00 This pool cue tip is made with the same boar hides as our Sniper tips. Each of the finest layers are then collected and aged with Tigers' own secret process, turning each layer to black without using a black color dye. It is a very slow and time consuming process, however the end result is unbelievable to say the least. During this process, we are able to soften the layers to medium hardness, while making the leather firmer. It makes the tip easy to maintain and helps to cut better during repairs. Onyx - LTD® is the most consistent by far of any tips made. It will only be produced in limited numbers per year, since part of the natural process it goes thru, does take a long time. For those who want to have the best, Onyx- LTD® is your choice, because it's pure and it's perfect. Special thru 07/31/13...mention this and get the 'Onyx' for $40.00!

The VACULAM uses a unique vacuum lamination process that eliminates air between layers and within theleather. We have also added a new treatment,"APP" advanced pressurized process, to make the cue tips adaptable to any player or game, regardless of style. We GUARANTEE that Sniper has all the characteristics of a tip that will hold chalk well and will NOT MUSHROOM.

Tiger Products challenged itself in creating a jump/ break cue tip that makes it easier for the user to execute close quarters aerial jump shots and execute an iceberg stahhering break shot. All of this without sacrificing accurate cue ball control and avoiding the dreaded miscue. Following 3 years of research and development, we have created the definitive jump/ break tip of the future! This hybrid tip utilizes an ultra hard laminated leather core, (w/ leather contact surface) allowing for greater chalk adhesion and a phenolic jacket restricts cue tip expansion upon impact. So, all the power you put into your stroke transfers immediately and accurately to the cue ball without cause for miscue. The result is increased break shot speeds and 'light as a feather' jump shots! Manufactured with VACULAM process, this copyrighted Tiger technology has produced an incredibly powerful tip!

Димериза́ція — реакція полімеризації, що веде до утворення сполуки із подвоєним хімічним складом (димеру). Умовно цей процес зображується схемою:
 A + A → A2

У реакції можуть брати участь не лише молекулярні сполуки, а й радикали:
 CH3• + CH3• → CH3CH3

Подібно до полімеризації, здатність до димеризації найбільш характерна для ненасичених органічних сполук. У промисловості цей тип взаємодій може застосовуваться для отримання деяких речовин, зокрема, вінілацетилену з ацетилену і лимонену з ізопрену (за реакцією Дільса—Альдера):
 HC≡CH + HC≡CH → HC≡C-CH=CH2

Для деяких ненасичених сполук димеризація супроводжується циклоутворенням. Так, димеризація бута-1,3-дієну за різних умов може давати продуктом 4-вінілциклогексен або ж циклоокта-1,5-дієн:

Димеризація характерна також і для деяких неорганічних сполук. Наприклад, оксиди NO та NO2 у рідкому стані співіснують зі своїми димерами:

Продукти димеризації також включають міжмолекулярні комплекси, до яких можна віднести, наприклад, димери оцтової кислоти й фтороводню, де молекули пов'язані водневими зв'язками.

Zakres podmiotowy
Zakres podmiotowy obecnie obowiązującego rozporządzenia z 2011 r. wynika z art. 6 ust. 2b ustawy z 14 lipca 1983 r. o narodowym zasobie archiwalnym i archiwach. Z tych przepisów wynika, że osobę prowadzącego sprawę spotkać można w:
