Extract from Cambridge Daily News - Thursday 16th May 1918:

BURWELL

SERGT. CHARLES BROWN.—Mrs. Brown, of Burwell, widow of Mr. John Brown, for many years Inspector to the Newmarket Urban Council has received official information of the death in action of her youngest son, Sergt. Charles Brown, of the Bantam Battalion of the Suffolks. Sergt. Brown was 24 years of age last August. He was for 18 months in the office of the Ocean Company in Cambridge, when joined Barclay’s Bank and served with the utmost satisfaction at their Oundle, Leicester, and Uppingham branches of that bank. When the war broke out volunteered, but was rejected being under the standard height. When he learned that his friend, the late Lieut. Tom Blackwell, had joined the Bantam Battalion of the Suflolks, he immediately applied and was accepted. They came home on leave together, both sergeants. Tom Blackwell went to France, but Brown was given home billets, until he told the authorities that he was tired of “cushy” jobs, and wanted real soldiering. So he was sent out to France. He was in the big German attack March 21st of this year, and wrote home: “It will a huge relief to you to know that I have escaped without scratch.” He was in the midst of the German attack April 8th, and in this he was shot through the head and killed instantly. At any rate, such is the information furnished by the O.C. of his company, but in the carnage and confusion there may be an error of identification. Mrs. Brown has had letters of condolence from the directors and officials of Barclay’s Bank; from Mr. Praed, who has charge of the Leicester and Uppingham Banks; and from the Rev. C. J. N. Child (Headmaster the Cambridge County School), all speaking in high terms of praise of her son.

Note: H.M.S. ''Bulwark'' was a London-class battleship built in Devonport Dockyard, Plymouth in 1902. She was one of five pre-Dreadnought battleships laid down in response to France's turn-of-the-century shipbuilding program. One of the first major units fitted with Marconi wireless telegraph, Bulwark served as flagship of the Mediterranean fleet, based at Malta, from 1902 to 1907. Detailed to the Home Fleet, formed as a counterbalance to Germany's North Sea fleet, Bulwark served as divisional flagship until 1911 when she was transferred to the Fifth Battle Squadron of the reserve fleet. Mobilized and fully manned upon the outbreak of World War I, she was assigned to the Channel Fleet, which comprised nineteen pre-Dreadnought battleships. On 26th November 1914, Bulwark was anchored off Sheerness when at 07:53 the ship was ''rent asunder'' by a massive internal explosion caused by the poor storage of cordite charges, some of which were twelve years old. The ship sank instantly, taking with her a full complement of 781 ranks and ratings.

Time, gravity and excess sun exposure can cause deepening of facial lines and uneven pigmentation. This gives an older, tired look to an otherwise youthful complexion. Laser skin resurfacing can reduce, and often remove, much of this damage to the skin and literally "turn back the clock". A tired looking, sun damaged face can obtain an entirely new, fresh look with healthy, glowing smooth skin. This is the goal of laser resurfacing.

There are different levels of laser resurfacing available, depending on the patient's condition, the level of "down time" or recovery period a patient can tolerate, and cost.

Royal Coronation Aurora is fully deboxed, and is posed standing, supported by a Kaiser stand. She can free stand, but is very unstable that way. Photographed in daylight.

 

Review of Royal Coronation Aurora Doll

Her face is pretty, but bland and generic. She only has a passing resemblance to the movie character, as portrayed by Elle Fanning. She doesn't have very realistic features, but looks like an ordinary doll painted to look like an animated character. She has a light complexion, small blue green eyes gazing straight ahead, brown eyebrows, small straight nose, light pink lips on a small mouth, large chin, and light rouge on her cheeks.

 

She has long golden blonde hair that reaches her hips. There is a solitary long curl hanging from her left side. The rest of her hair is slightly wavy, and is grouped in a single mass, which I left alone. It would look better if it were combed out, but I was afraid that it might get frizzy if I attempted to do so. The hair is shiny and soft, and doesn't appear to have any hair product.

 

The dress is golden brocaded satin, with a floral design. The underside is very light tan in color. There is also a painted floral overlay in pink and green, which is only in the front of the dress (the front of the skirt and bodice). There is golden lace trim at the hem, waist and collar and cuffs. Her collar and cuffs end in white organza. The skirt is pleated, and almost floor length. The bodice has a high waist, with a golden belt sewn around it. Her sleeves are full length. There is a over sized train sewn to the back of the dress, just below the waist. It made of the same material and has the same decoration as the front of the skirt. Its underside is fully lined with gold satin. The dress looks and feels luxurious, and fit for royalty.

 

She is wearing tan colored heels, with a simulated strap and an unpainted embossed floral design. She is wearing a gold colored plastic crown that is made to look like a floral wreath, that goes halfway around her head. It is secured only by two T-tab fasteners, so it is not meant to be removed or used on other dolls.

 

Her body is made of hard plastic throughout. She has seven points of articulation: her neck, shoulders, elbows and hips. Her hands are permanently tilted back to make the standard Princess pose. Her feet are fixed at an angle to wear high heels. Her head can turn 360 degrees around, and can tilt up about 20 degrees, and tilt down 10 degrees. Her arms can swivel about the shoulders 360 degrees, and can tilt about 20 degrees. Her forearms can swivel around her elbows almost 360 degrees, but cannot go completely around. They can tilt back about 20 degrees, and forward about 60 degrees. Her hips can swivel 90 degrees both back and forth, and can tilt out about 30 degrees. She has white painted on underwear, which looks like a strapless one piece bathing suit.

 

Packaging and Deboxing

It was easy to debox Coronation Aurora, compared to most Disney Store dolls. First step was to remove the clear plastic cover from the box, by cutting the tape around the edges, and lifting the tabs free from the cardboard. Aurora is standing on a small cardboard spacer. Behind her is a printed background from the movie, which is common to all the dolls in this series. There was only plastic T-tab fasteners securing her to the backing and the plastic spacer. It was possible to reach all the fasteners and snip them off, without having to remove the large plastic spacer. It turned out that the fastener that was supposed to go into the back of her head didn't make it past her hair, so she didn't have a post sticking out of her head when I snipped the fastener loose. The other end of the fastener was just laying loose in her hair. There was tissue paper around her legs, but only up to her knees, to make the skirt look fuller in the box.

 

Purchase Details

I just received the four available Jakks Pacific dolls from the Maleficent movie in single doll packages. I ordered them from Toys R Us on Friday night and got them Tuesday, with free shipping. I appreciated the quick shipping, compared to the Disney Store. The dolls are the following, with links to the TRU site. All the dolls are 11 1/2'' H. The Coronation dolls are $39.95 each, the other two are $19.95.

Participating in Beauty pageant like MS Universe India is a dream come true but for me it isn’t about who has the perfect eyebrow or pins, it’s about who is willing to push the envelope so I took this opportunity to put myself forward, putting my experience to a worthy cause of winning title of MS UNIVERSE INDIA 2019 and using it to throw light on certain issues like GENDER EQUALITY ,WOMEN EMPOWERMENT and really would love to do for the causes that are inhumane

Last but not least I m a firm believer of the thought that “ DREAM IS NOT WHAT YOU SEE IN SLEEP ‘ DREAM IS SOMETHING THAT DON’T LET U SLEEP !!

Extract from Cambridge Daily News - Thursday 16th May 1918:

BURWELL

SERGT. CHARLES BROWN.—Mrs. Brown, of Burwell, widow of Mr. John Brown, for many years Inspector to the Newmarket Urban Council has received official information of the death in action of her youngest son, Sergt. Charles Brown, of the Bantam Battalion of the Suffolks. Sergt. Brown was 24 years of age last August. He was for 18 months in the office of the Ocean Company in Cambridge, when joined Barclay’s Bank and served with the utmost satisfaction at their Oundle, Leicester, and Uppingham branches of that bank. When the war broke out volunteered, but was rejected being under the standard height. When he learned that his friend, the late Lieut. Tom Blackwell, had joined the Bantam Battalion of the Suflolks, he immediately applied and was accepted. They came home on leave together, both sergeants. Tom Blackwell went to France, but Brown was given home billets, until he told the authorities that he was tired of “cushy” jobs, and wanted real soldiering. So he was sent out to France. He was in the big German attack March 21st of this year, and wrote home: “It will a huge relief to you to know that I have escaped without scratch.” He was in the midst of the German attack April 8th, and in this he was shot through the head and killed instantly. At any rate, such is the information furnished by the O.C. of his company, but in the carnage and confusion there may be an error of identification. Mrs. Brown has had letters of condolence from the directors and officials of Barclay’s Bank; from Mr. Praed, who has charge of the Leicester and Uppingham Banks; and from the Rev. C. J. N. Child (Headmaster the Cambridge County School), all speaking in high terms of praise of her son.

Note: H.M.S. ''Bulwark'' was a London-class battleship built in Devonport Dockyard, Plymouth in 1902. She was one of five pre-Dreadnought battleships laid down in response to France's turn-of-the-century shipbuilding program. One of the first major units fitted with Marconi wireless telegraph, Bulwark served as flagship of the Mediterranean fleet, based at Malta, from 1902 to 1907. Detailed to the Home Fleet, formed as a counterbalance to Germany's North Sea fleet, Bulwark served as divisional flagship until 1911 when she was transferred to the Fifth Battle Squadron of the reserve fleet. Mobilized and fully manned upon the outbreak of World War I, she was assigned to the Channel Fleet, which comprised nineteen pre-Dreadnought battleships. On 26th November 1914, Bulwark was anchored off Sheerness when at 07:53 the ship was ''rent asunder'' by a massive internal explosion caused by the poor storage of cordite charges, some of which were twelve years old. The ship sank instantly, taking with her a full complement of 781 ranks and ratings.

FIRM, FAIR & YOUTHFUL COMPLEXION

Vitamin C is one of the best nutrients you can feed your skin. This skin-savvy vitamin gives not just one but many beautifying benefits - its powerful antioxidant, anti-ageing and anti-pigmentation actions make it a wonderful ally for your skin!

 

To get optimum skincare benefit, Vitamin C is best applied directly. It can then penetrate skin layers to work its magic in lightening, firming, repairing and regenerating the skin.

 

Are you really getting any Vitamin C in your skincare?

Most topical Vitamin C is extremely unstable and prone to oxidation and degradation. Once degraded, its potency and efficacy are lost. Unless stabilised properly, the Vitamin C in skincare products would most likely have degraded while sitting on store shelves, way before it reaches your skin!

 

Biolgo Active-C Whitening series is developed using the most potent Vitamin C preparation. The active compound is known as Activated Citrus-CÔ extract, which is stabilised through a patented technology therefore ensuring the skin receives the optimal benefits of this nutrient.

• Promotes a fairer, even-toned complexion

• Enhances softness and suppleness

• Reduces sagging, fine lines and wrinkles

• Rejuvenates sun-damaged skin

Review of Royal Coronation Aurora Doll

Her face is pretty, but bland and generic. She only has a passing resemblance to the movie character, as portrayed by Elle Fanning. She doesn't have very realistic features, but looks like an ordinary doll painted to look like an animated character. She has a light complexion, small blue green eyes gazing straight ahead, brown eyebrows, small straight nose, light pink lips on a small mouth, large chin, and light rouge on her cheeks.

 

She has long golden blonde hair that reaches her hips. There is a solitary long curl hanging from her left side. The rest of her hair is slightly wavy, and is grouped in a single mass, which I left alone. It would look better if it were combed out, but I was afraid that it might get frizzy if I attempted to do so. The hair is shiny and soft, and doesn't appear to have any hair product.

 

The dress is golden brocaded satin, with a floral design. The underside is very light tan in color. There is also a painted floral overlay in pink and green, which is only in the front of the dress (the front of the skirt and bodice). There is golden lace trim at the hem, waist and collar and cuffs. Her collar and cuffs end in white organza. The skirt is pleated, and almost floor length. The bodice has a high waist, with a golden belt sewn around it. Her sleeves are full length. There is a over sized train sewn to the back of the dress, just below the waist. It made of the same material and has the same decoration as the front of the skirt. Its underside is fully lined with gold satin. The dress looks and feels luxurious, and fit for royalty.

 

She is wearing tan colored heels, with a simulated strap and an unpainted embossed floral design. She is wearing a gold colored plastic crown that is made to look like a floral wreath, that goes halfway around her head. It is secured only by two T-tab fasteners, so it is not meant to be removed or used on other dolls.

 

Her body is made of hard plastic throughout. She has seven points of articulation: her neck, shoulders, elbows and hips. Her hands are permanently tilted back to make the standard Princess pose. Her feet are fixed at an angle to wear high heels. Her head can turn 360 degrees around, and can tilt up about 20 degrees, and tilt down 10 degrees. Her arms can swivel about the shoulders 360 degrees, and can tilt about 20 degrees. Her forearms can swivel around her elbows almost 360 degrees, but cannot go completely around. They can tilt back about 20 degrees, and forward about 60 degrees. Her hips can swivel 90 degrees both back and forth, and can tilt out about 30 degrees. She has white painted on underwear, which looks like a strapless one piece bathing suit.

 

Packaging and Deboxing

It was easy to debox Coronation Aurora, compared to most Disney Store dolls. First step was to remove the clear plastic cover from the box, by cutting the tape around the edges, and lifting the tabs free from the cardboard. Aurora is standing on a small cardboard spacer. Behind her is a printed background from the movie, which is common to all the dolls in this series. There was only plastic T-tab fasteners securing her to the backing and the plastic spacer. It was possible to reach all the fasteners and snip them off, without having to remove the large plastic spacer. It turned out that the fastener that was supposed to go into the back of her head didn't make it past her hair, so she didn't have a post sticking out of her head when I snipped the fastener loose. The other end of the fastener was just laying loose in her hair. There was tissue paper around her legs, but only up to her knees, to make the skirt look fuller in the box.

[b]Character’s History: [/b]

In the beginning, Merkhava brought compassion, love and health to the word and it was good. Every living being was filled with an instinct to nurture its own kind and to ease any suffering. Also, they possessed a level of health that fought off all infection and nearly any wound was healed quickly and without pain. Those few millennia swept by and then the age of man dawned in eden.

 

When Adam and Eve were exiled from Eden, the All-Father charged Merhkava to take back some of her blessings which introduced pain and suffering into the world. With a heavy heart, she complied with the divine command. That was the first time the angel shed a tear of her own but it wouldn’t be the last.

 

Her breaking point came with the first murder. Merhkava felt the violation of the compassion she instilled in the human race like a shredding of her own heart. Agony, never before felt coursed through her and broke the angel’s spirit. From that day onward tears continue to trickle from her eyes without respite. She blamed herself for the murder because she had submitted to the Lord’s demand to lessen the amount of compassion humans were capable of feeling.

 

In her pain, she listened to the words of the Morning Star and began following the rebellion. Not once did she take up the sword but served as a field medic. With her control over the health of all creation, she mended the flesh of the rebels and their thralls. Because she allowed the rebels to continue fighting when the judgment came, she too was cast down into the abyss.

Review of Royal Coronation Aurora Doll

Her face is pretty, but bland and generic. She only has a passing resemblance to the movie character, as portrayed by Elle Fanning. She doesn't have very realistic features, but looks like an ordinary doll painted to look like an animated character. She has a light complexion, small blue green eyes gazing straight ahead, brown eyebrows, small straight nose, light pink lips on a small mouth, large chin, and light rouge on her cheeks.

 

She has long golden blonde hair that reaches her hips. There is a solitary long curl hanging from her left side. The rest of her hair is slightly wavy, and is grouped in a single mass, which I left alone. It would look better if it were combed out, but I was afraid that it might get frizzy if I attempted to do so. The hair is shiny and soft, and doesn't appear to have any hair product.

 

The dress is golden brocaded satin, with a floral design. The underside is very light tan in color. There is also a painted floral overlay in pink and green, which is only in the front of the dress (the front of the skirt and bodice). There is golden lace trim at the hem, waist and collar and cuffs. Her collar and cuffs end in white organza. The skirt is pleated, and almost floor length. The bodice has a high waist, with a golden belt sewn around it. Her sleeves are full length. There is a over sized train sewn to the back of the dress, just below the waist.

Beautiful clear eyes, and beautiful complexion. This is the very first Cissy I ever owned. I purchased her off of eBay for $199. The most expensive doll I had ever bought. Totally worth my investment. Later I went on to own 19 Cissy dolls, all with different original tagged outfits, plus accessories, and even a vintage Cissy trunk.

Time, gravity and excess sun exposure can cause deepening of facial lines and uneven pigmentation. This gives an older, tired look to an otherwise youthful complexion. Laser skin resurfacing can reduce, and often remove, much of this damage to the skin and literally "turn back the clock". A tired looking, sun damaged face can obtain an entirely new, fresh look with healthy, glowing smooth skin. This is the goal of laser resurfacing.

There are different levels of laser resurfacing available, depending on the patient's condition, the level of "down time" or recovery period a patient can tolerate, and cost.

Momtrends & Silk'n Beauty Brunch Event

 

Pierce Mattie Communications, Media Oasis; New York, NY

Good morning to all who visit. Now we know this isn't the most handsome or beautiful a subject....but interesting!

 

It's funny how you don't sometimes know what you've actually captured until you download a shot!

 

We'd tried in vain to capture a butterfly on our Camelias.....and noticed this Blowfly sitting on the petals in the early morning sun. So we took a few shots....hand held with the 18-200mm lens. Thinking the fly looked rather good sitting amongst the dew covered flowers.

 

When we downloaded the shots and cropped this one....we couldn't believe the orb of water he had stuck to his mouth. It appears he has picked up a small drop of dew....a rather unique way of having a drink.

 

We hope everyone is about to have a great week. We'll be back soon to view our friends photostreams. All the best D&J.

Garza real

Ardea cinereaFamilia: Ardeidos – ArdeidaeAspecto: Garza grande, de complexión robusta, predominantemente de color gris, con un pico recto, fuerte, en forma de daga. Las garzas pueden diferenciarse de las grullas durante el vuelo, y a menudo también cuando están de pie, por la forma en que encorvan su cuello.Tamaño: Largo 84-102 cm, envergadura alar 155-175 cm, peso 930-1.150 g.Nido: Una gran pila desarreglada de ramas, generalmente construido muy alto en un abeto o pino. Las aves pueden usar el mismo nido durante muchos años.Reproducción: Pone 6 huevos en mayo, incubados de forma alternada por los padres, en 4 a 6 períodos, durante 25 a 28 días. Las aves jóvenes aprenden a volar aproximadamente a los 50 días. Muchas garzas reales anidan en colonias.Distribución: Ave migratoria de verano que se reproduce poco en Finlandia (solo hay alrededor de 100 parejas). En los últimos años, los avistamientos de invierno se han vuelto más comunes.Migración: Pasa el invierno en el oeste y sur de Europa. La migración de otoño puede tener lugar entre mediados de agosto y principios de noviembre, y las aves regresan de marzo a mayo.

Alimentación: Acecha inmóvil a lo largo de costas, lista para emboscar, en espera de que peces y animales acuáticos pequeños estén a su alcance.Sonidos: Un chillido fuerte, molesto, similar al llamado de la pagaza piquirroja.

La garza real tiene partes superiores de color gris claro, y partes inferiores de color blanco grisáceo. Su cabeza es mayormente blanca, excepto por una raya negra que se extiende desde encima de sus ojos hasta la parte posterior de su cuello, donde algunas de sus plumas se alargan para formar una cresta. Los adultos con plumaje de apareamiento pueden tener un color rosáceo a los lados del cuello, y algunas filas de rayas oscuras en el cuello y el pecho. La garza real tiene el pico de color amarillo o naranja amarillento, patas de color marrón opaco e iris amarillo.

Las aves inmaduras generalmente se parecen a las adultas, pero su capuchón y su cuello son más grises (y el cuello no tiene color rosáceo). Su pico es más pardusco y el iris es blanco.

 

The Clinique Even Better makeup is a foundation which evens and corrects the skin tone. It’s a light liquid which comes in various shades to match your complexion. After trying Clinque’s Even Better Eyes, I was dubious about the capabilities of the Even Better range, but this one went onto the skin smoothly, it blended well and it really did even my skin tone well. I have freckles on my nose, and the Even Better foundation didn’t cover them, but it did minimise them. This is ideal for me as it’s not heavy enough to cover uneven skin tones, but not so heavy that it makes me completely monotone. It means that this foundation gives a good coverage whilst still looking natural. Wearing it, I have been complimented by friends and make-up artists telling me that I have good skin, this definitely gives it a sign of approval!

 

What makes this foundation even better is that it is SPF15. It’s easy to forget that your skin needs year-round protection, and that even when it’s not hot and sunny outside, the sun still does damage to your skin. Even Better keeps your skin healthy, and allows for a natural, non-shiny complexion in summer. Instead it leaves a clean and flawless look to your face, without clogging up pores.

 

This foundation doesn’t make skin matte or greasy, but seeks to give a natural skin look – it’s a little bit shiny around the T-zone, and less so on the cheeks. The shininess can easily be covered with a powder, but even without additional make up it looks natural. It will stay put for about 6-8hrs on greasy skin, and as you only need a small amount of liquid each time it’s likely that that bottle will last you several months. It will cost around £23 from House of Fraser, Debenhams, Boots etc.

Normally mages do not breed true, meaning that there is no guarantee that such offspring will awaken. Although its unlikely, the rare child has awakened and signed their names in one of the ethereal watchtowers. Marius was one such rare exception. As he reached puberty, Marius had a moment of unbelievable clarity. The world he had known suddenly repulsed and sickened him. As he slept that night, he dreamt that he was flying through a stormscape. There at the heart of the storm rested a tower and deep within his being, he felt its call. At dawn, Marius had truly Awakened.

   

Years later, Marius had undergone strict training both in how to properly wield his newfound powers but as a warrior. It was during these years where he was simply a grunt and a newly awakened individual did the weight of responsibility come crashing down upon his shoulders. A creature of the night had tracked Marius home one night and took his father captive. Marius, furious and inexperienced learned first hand what how destructive both the creatures and himself could be. Since that time, only two other events shook him to his core but each time, he hardened his heart and continued to fight to protect those without the power from those like himself.

I was walking down the sidewalk, and there she was, a legless beauty queen in a short pink dress, reaching out to me. I had the concrete feeling she was in the middle of some unfinished business, so I politely took one portrait then left.

It's ready! The gorgeous colour comes from real organic carrot juice - I'm really happy with this batch. It feels wonderful to hold, has a great texture, and smells like a health food store. What more could you ask for?
