In the words of 14-year-old valley girls everywhere, "technology is like, hella lit right now." Incidentally, this is exactly the market fashion companies are vying to capture the attention of, and if technology is on their customer's minds' (what with ubiquitous smartphone usage and screens practically glued to their eyeballs), then you can be sure it is on the mind of designers and manufacturers as well.

A Sanctuary in the Valley of the Sun

As new residents of Arizona’s Valley of the Sun with a home in Scottsdale, my husband and I are eager to learn about the great places and activities in our new community and surrounding area. We’ve been pleasantly surprised that there is so much to see and do!

Recently, we got a glimpse of the beautiful Sanctuary on Camelback Resort and Spa, a luxury resort for relaxation and recreation in nearby Paradise Valley. Take a look.

GR: The European Journal of Literature, Culture, and Environment recently issued a call for papers to appear in a special section of the Journal. I’ve reproduced the call here because of its useful summary of the recent history (since 1970)  of attitudes toward overpopulation. Joe Bish of the Population Media Center brought the call to my attention. Bish’s weekly essay is essential reading. This week he points out that those who argue population is not a problem “. . . completely fail to acknowledge... Читать дальше...

From the BBC:

According to analysis by polling expert John Curtice, if the results of Thursday's polls in Wales, Scotland and 32 county councils in England were repeated nationally, the Conservatives would be on 38%, Labour 27%, the Lib Dems 18% and UKIP 5%.

With some form of PR, the best being probably multi-member constituencies, there'd probably be a slight left/centre-left majority in the House of Commons, which is the opposite of the slight Leave majority in last year's Referendum. Читать дальше...

Today, crusaders, we’ve once again arrived at the most exciting two minutes in sports, as yet another Kentucky Derby takes off at Churchill Downs.

Jake: ‘well knock me down with a feather’

Pete Sixsmith decided after all to go to the Hull game and you’ll see his seven-word verdict below. I imagine thousands of Sunderland supporters not even bothering how it went. At half-time, Sixer’s verdict was that we looked better organised (not a huge leap) in a poor game. Then, all of a sudden, Billy Jones came good with a great diving header. To be followed by a deserved ...

Hello!

I've been somewhat quiet recently, mainly due to my wife being halfway across the world and as a result me having a sudden need to do things like household chores and cooking.  Generally things have gone okay, although I have noticed that I've had a tendency to carry out some rather silly actions.  I've summarised them as follows:

Wednesday 26th April - left hob on for several hours, only realising when I went into the kitchen to make a cup of tea ...

So spending time with friends is the best way to live life at best, right??

Way back in November 2015 my step dad had come into some money after he had been working so hard and very long hours to try and raise enough cash for himself to buy himself the car that he ever wanted. As my mums car was in need of some TLC and needed so much work done to it she decided to get rid of it and my mom used to drive my step dads old car before it was destroyed in a ...

TONY MACARONI PLEDGE SUPPORT TO HELP DISADVANTAGED KIDS

Italian restaurant group Tony Macaroni has announced a partnership with Radio Clyde's Cash for Kids to help support the city's most vulnerable children whilst simultaneously combatting food waste.

The eatery has been fundraising for the charity, which works with disadvantaged and disabled children and young people from Glasgow and the west of Scotland, since the end of last year after introducing a new 'leftovers' donation.

Though face is that part of the body where attention goes first but hands and legs are also not left behind hence, you must focus maintaining those too. And, if you don’t do so, it would reflect a clumsy personality.

Fashion and documentaries are two worlds that are strongly intertwined. Fashion uses documentaries to communicate its story and documentarians are always happy to step in in the fascinating world of fashion.

With all the petitions going around I’m getting a bit dizzy. I won’t go to the doctor though, since I think Trump may be a pre-existing condition. In any case, seeing all these petitions gives me an idea for one of my own. I suggest a petition that says members of congress should not have a health plan. Now wait, hear me out—I’m not vindictive, just practical. Apart from the fact that some of them have been kept alive and active well past their sell-by date, these are people who are supposed to represent us, right? Читать дальше...

So mid March, my mom hit the big 6-0. Because it was a special birthday, I decided to go all out and treat her to a birthday she'd remember. She loves Motown music so I managed to bag 2 tickets to see The Magic of Motown who were in York for just 1 night.

Fast forward to last weekend, and the day finally arrived. We got off to a rocky start, hitting the Humber Bridge to find someone threatening to commit suicide - We were stuck on the bridge for 1.5hrs to eventually have to make ...
