Film: Brooklyn
Format: HBO on rockin’ flatscreen.

When I look at the movies that I still have left on my Oscars list, I see that I have a habit of leaving a Best Picture nominee or two from each year unwatched for some time. Evidently, that’s not going to be the case for 2015, as Brooklyn is the last one I have left. I’ve had this saved on the DVR for a cou

A lot of people are calling down 2016 and are ready to move on to the next chapter. While I understand why this is the general sentiment, it actually wasn’t a horrible year for me. School-wise, I started my 4th and final year of optometry. Travel-wise, I visited countless new places, including three new countries and spent the bulk of this year outside Canada exploring. And personally, my guy and I have started a final countdown to the end of long distance for good!

Sure, you rode a bi-cycle in your life… as all of us know, it is the roller chain that transfers power from the pedals to the back wheel, driving the cycle forward ~ and as could be seen the pedal has teeth … is it the available teeth or those missing teeth that moves the cycle forward ?
At Chepauk, in Test no. 2241, the day clearly belonged to KL Rahul – who however would rue the day !!  - Rahul managed a wonderfully fluent century, the fourth and the highest of his career;  his first in India. Читать дальше...

The Ultimate Guide To Vegan!

Chapter 14. So many reasons to go vegan!

There are a lot of myths, false concepts and misinformation around veganism. We won’t ever get tired of repeating that going vegan is so much more than simply tweaking your diet. Veganism is not a type of nutrition – instead, it’s a cruelty-free lifestyle with an inevitable dietary component.
The most important principle behind going vegan is a conscious decision to eliminate all unnecessary violence. Since animals are living... Читать дальше...

Somany Ceramics understands the fast rising demand for smart bathrooms especially in urban and among growing affluent Indians. That brings French Collection by Somany Ceramics in order to build smart bathrooms. In fact, this significant increase in such requirements from consumers signifies a move towards energy conservation. And at the same time, there is a need to maintain high standards of hygiene.

Capricorn is represented as a mountain top, the point where spirit and matter meet. At this most subtle and translucent state, the individuality becomes so pure and transparent that the light from above shines through. The personality ascends to the higher self, and the soul prepares to receive the energies of the super-soul. When the super-soul descends into a form, the Christ consciousness is born in a pure vessel. In the New Testament this pure body of light is called the “radiant white robe”. Читать дальше...

If you are fortunate enough to have a Health Savings Account, or HSA, you might be able to retire earlier than a lot of your peers. Many people have the money to retire by their late fifties, but they hold out a few more years because they're worried about losing their health insurance before they become eligible for Medicare. If you invest properly in an HSA starting when you're young, you might have the cash needed to carry you through ...

Sunday 13th November 2016

It was one of those days where I’d decided to leave the car at home and set off on an adventure that literally began from my doorstep; boots already on.

From the bottom of School Road in Wrington, I climbed up, continuing higher up Old Hill and entering woodland towards the summit.

It’s a route I know well. To my left, I could hear distant shouting soon spotted structures belonging to the local paintball center. Near the highest point, I ...

Ynet is reporting that a senior Palestinian official, Saeb Erekat, has warned that if Donald Trump goes through with his promise to move the US Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem it would destroy any prospect for peace..

I find it laughable that the Palestinian officials are talking about prospects for peace as if they are deep in negotiation. I find it laughable that they can warn that something, anything, might damage the prospects for peace. For the past 2+ years the Palestinians have... Читать дальше...

I just discovered an online auction site for rare Judaica items that I had not heard of before. It is called Jerusalem of Gold and most of the items on their website up for auction are rare manuscripts or letters from Rabbis of previous generations, but I did spot a few other items that are interesting.

The site came to my attention from an article on NRG about a pair of glasses worn by the Chazon Ish - his "Shabbos glasses". Once I went to the site, I looked around and ...

According to reports, the City of of Jerusalem is giving out Christmas trees to celebrating Christian residents of Jerusalem.

I have no problem with that, though some may. However, I would like to see the City of Jerusalem also give out menorahs, or chanukiyot, to celebrating residents of Jerusalem.

Jake: ‘one nowt’ – that’ll dae

Malcolm Dawson writes……..Pete Sixsmith was at the match yesterday but today he’s tied up with festive duties spreading peace and merriment in the heart of Magland so it falls on me to leave the subs’ bench and step up onto the soapbox to bring you my take on yesterday’s proceedings.

Many years ago, when I was fresh out of Art College, the proud owner of a BA in Graphic Design and full of youthful enthusiasm I was offered a job in a well known London advertising agency.  Thrilled, I trotted along on my first day, dreaming of such big names as Cadbury’s, Sony and Kelloggs.
I made the tea, bought cakes, fetched files and was let loose with a huge pack of Letraset and a dummy box to lay out the words, ‘A BETTER BISCUIT’ in the specified font.  Not just once, but ten times,... Читать дальше...

Last Saturday, Frog and I were invited to Bosch Experience Centre for an exclusive reveal of the revamped Bosch Experience Centre. Bosch new flagship Centre is now designed in a contemporary home setting ( 4000 square feet centre) where customers can interact with all of Bosch’s latest appliances and get the first hand taste of the products featured in an open concept living, breathing space from lounge all the way to the laundry room.

As a co-leader of my daughter's Girl Scout Daisy troop, we wanted to find a way for them to actively participate in charities and volunteer activities. At age 5 and 6 and only having 60 minutes for a meeting, this proved more difficult than you may think. We were excited to learn about Operation Gratitude and it has now become a tradition every Memorial Day weekend to have the Scouts make cards for those serving our country overseas.

Today I will be reviewing a Broad Spectrum Sun Defence Cream with SPF-50 and PA+++ from the house of Jovees. A few months ago I went to buy my favorite Lotus sunscreen but it was out of stock. The shopping assistant gave this to me. It was summer and my skin felt all oily after using this. So, I kept it aside to use in the cold months. I took it out in November and have been using it since then. I am going to share my experience with it now. Please read on to know if it worked or ...

The garden has taken off after a slow start with a cooler than usual Spring this year.

KJU’s last observed appearance was his visit to a KPA fishery station

Kim Jong Un (Kim Cho’ng-u’n) visited Ku’msusan Palace of the Sun on the morning of December 17 (Saturday) and, later the same day, attended a national memorial service to mark the fifth anniversary of the death of his father Kim Jong Il (Kim Cho’ng-il)

Among those in attendance at these events were: Supreme People’s Assembly [SPA] Presidium President Kim Yong Nam [Kim Yo’ng-nam], Korean People’s Army [KPA] General... Читать дальше...

We’re back! I apologize for the week off. An upper respiratory infection and guest stint as a Kindergarten Teacher got the best of me last week (and is the reason I’m still sick). Regardless, the show blog must go on.
