A wild riot of colour as thousands celebrate London's Gay Pride Parade 2011. London 02.07.2011
This Saturday July 2nd 2011 saw the explosion of colour and fabulous carnival/cabaret fancy-dress which is the annual Gay Pride parade passing through the packed London streets as many Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual and Transgender groups representing special interest campaigning groups, trade unions, the armed forces, police service, christian groups and several of London's gay bars and clubs celebrated their sexuality and diversity, watched and cheered on by tens of thousands of enthusiastic members of the public.
The days celebrations were purposefully snubbed by London mayor Boris Johnson much to the anger and irritation of many, since Mr. Johnson is expected to show support for all Londoners. However, his greatest opponent in the upcoming mayoral elections, former London Mayor Ken Livingstone was to be seen - as always - at the head of the parade, accompanied by human and gay rights activist Peter Tatchell.
Gone was the nervous tension of the original trail-blazing Gay Pride marches of the late 1970's and early 80's, as a new generation of gay people enjoy far greater public acceptance of their lifestyle in what feel like more enlightened times. What is taken for granted now was fought for in the past by courageous activists and their political supporters who wanted to see an end to the homophobic bigotry and institutionalised discrimination which used to be the universal public position towards them.
Having said that, there was a demonstration set up at the bottom of Waterloo Place by a group of so-called Christians from the Baptist Church - some of whom looked like they had been time-warped directly from the 1950's, complete with emotional constipation - who spent the entire afternoon insulting and demeaning all gay people and anyone who accepts homosexuality as a part of the enormously wide spectrum of human sexuality by cherry-picking snippets from the Bible completely without proper context, and generally showing themselves up to be nothing more than a bunch of hate-filled bigots who hilariously claim to love the people they were standing there belittling.
My photos of the Baptists and the crowd's reactions to being assaulted by the pious abuse are already uploaded in my set "Baptists preach intolerance at Gay Pride Parade".
After the parade made its way from Portland Place to Trafalgar Square, the marchers and bystanders alike dispersed into Soho for some serious street partying which lasted late into the night. There was a main stage in Trafalgar Square which hosted a long rosta of minor-league pop and dance acts during the afternoon, though oddly this year there were no big-name headliners, and another Dance Stage in Soho Square which featured a great line-up of club DJs.

Pebble had to see the vet for dental extractions (five teeth) this week.
During the course of Pebble's dental intervention, we decided to take advantage of the anaesthetic and had abdominal x-rays taken to see whether these would provide a clue as to why Pebble appears to be constipated at times and has a tendency to scoot across the carpet after visiting the toilet for a number 2.
I am now pleased to present the two most expensive images taken this year so far :-)
The vet's verdict on the x-rays was after all inconclusive but he remarked that Pebble has an extraordinary amount of sublumbar muscle.
More on the x-rays and this week's feline veterinary exploits are available here: makedoandmendnovice.blogspot.com/2021/04/pebbles-trip-to-...
In India, Nepal, Sri Lanka and parts of South Asia, the leaves are chewed together with the mineral slaked lime (calcium hydroxide), Catechu, called "Kattha" in Hindi,and the areca nut which, by association, is sometimes inaccurately called the "betel nut". The lime acts to keep the active ingredient in its freebase or alkaline form, thus enabling it to enter the bloodstream via sublingual absorption. The areca nut contains the alkaloid arecoline, which promotes salivation (the saliva is stained red), and is itself a stimulant. This combination, known as a "betel quid", has been used for several thousand years. Tobacco is sometimes added.
Betel leaves are used as a stimulant, an antiseptic and a breath-freshener Paan. In Ayurvedic medicine, they are used as an aphrodisiac. In Malaysia they are used to treat headaches, arthritis and joint pain. In Thailand, Indonesia and China they are used to relieve toothache. In Indonesia they are drunk as an infusion and used as an antibiotic. They are also used in an infusion to cure indigestion, as a topical cure for constipation, as a decongestant and as an aid to lactation. (taken from Wikipedia)

Balanced Calcium Formula To Deliver More Calcium
Are you taking the right kind of calcium supplement?
Are you sure that you are absorbing the calcium tablets you are taking?
With Nn Calcium Plus, you can be sure that you are getting the right form of calcium that allows maximum absorption for a lifetime of stronger bones.
Superior, balanced calcium formula with the essential nutrients, including Magnesium, Vitamin D, Manganese and Zinc, needed to optimise calcium absorption and utilisation in the body. Each easy-to-swallow tablet provides 1,050mg of Calcium citrate.
Vitamin D omproves calcium absorption in the intestines, directs calcium into the bones and suppresses the parathyroid hormones responsible for calcium loss from the bones. Manganese, on the other hand, accelerates the synthesis of mucopolysaccharides for bone matrix formation, while Zinc activates osteoblast (bone forming cells), and improves collagen and chondroitin synthesis for stronger joints. Most importantly, Magnesium ensures bones formed are more flexible and less brittle.
• No chalky taste
• Higher absorption - 2.5 times MORE bio-available than calcium carbonate*
• May be taken any time - even on an empty stomach
• Does not cause constipation or gas like conventional calcium tablets
*Based on research by University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, published in Journal of Clinical Pharmacology 1999 Nov; 39(11):1151-4
Are you absorbing your calcium supplements?
You may not be getting the most out of the calcium that you are taking if it is not in the correct form. Studies confirmed that Calcium citrate is more superior to most commercial calcium supplements. Even if you have insufficient stomach acid like most people, you would still be able to absorb 45% of Calcium citrate supplements, in comparison to only 4% of Calcium carbonate supplement. When calcium isn't absorbed into your bones, it collects in your joints causing bone spurs (a symptom of arthritis), in your kidneys causing kidney stones, or in your blood vessels causing clogged arteries.
How strong are your bones?
Calcium alone doesn't protect your bones! In fact, too much calcium without magnesium can lead to the formation of brittle bones that break easily. Magnesium makes the bones more flexible and less prone to breaking. A good example is to observe the difference between chalk and ivory. Blackboard chalk is calcium carbonate. It breaks wasily when you drop it. Ivory, on the other hand, is a combination of calcium and magnesium. It bounces back without breaking when it's dropped. Similary you'd want your bones to be like ivory and not chalk.
What Calcium Can Do For You?
• Builds strong bones & teeth
• Prevents osteoporosis
• Relieves muscle cramps & twitches
• Alleviates insomnia & sleeping problems
• Reduces high blood pressure (Hypertension)
• Alleviates Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS)
COFFEE DRINKERS - BEWARE!
You lose about 5mg of calcium with each cup of coffee you drink. Unless you are replenishing the lost calcium, you may risk losing your bones.

Two young Catha edulis plants.
Apparently this plant is taking the UK by storm, and is single-handedly going to ruin the young and make society collapse.
Khat consumption induces mild euphoria and excitement. Individuals become very talkative under the influence of the drug. The effects of oral administration of cathinone occur more rapidly than the effects of amphetamine, roughly 15 minutes as compared to 30 minutes in amphetamine. Khat can induce manic behaviors and hyperactivity similar in effects to those produced by amphetamine.
The use of khat results in constipation. Dilated pupils (mydriasis) are prominent during khat consumption, reflecting the sympathomimetic effects of the drug, which are also reflected in increased heart rate and blood pressure.

on the Desirability of establishing a
NATUR_KURHAUS
On the Orielton Hall Estate
Pointing out the unique advantages and unrivalled position the estate affords as a health resort, the climate being considered the most uniform in the kingdom
Foreword
This brief description merely touches on the advantages which may be derived from the various treatments to be obtained. It outlines the wishes of many physicians both in Germany and America. Then it will be found than an effort has been made at Orielton to realize for sufferers the conditions which, as a rule, are to be found only on the continent of Europe and to secure for them those comforts which, with the methods of treatment, are found at their best in the Sanatoria of the United States.
Brook Street May 3, 1905
London. W
Barmouth as a Health Resort
There is in Great Britain to-day a need which makes itself felt increasingly by all practitioners who have the continuous well being of their patients at heart. We who look to the restoration of that balance – that equilibrium which IS health – and who know that the unstable equilibrium called by the generic name of disease, is in the main caused by unhealthy habits, mental no less than physical: we who are not content to apply a mere temporary stop gap to inroads of that nature, know also that the lion in the path of progress is our inability to control the environment of our patients. And here again, the mental environment is meant, quite as much as the physical environment. Bad habits of exercise, breathing, dressing, sitting, walking, playing and working: of eating and drinking: and last but not least, of thinking in grooves leading to nervous waste and jar, all conduce to unhealthy conditions.
The resumption of hygienic habits in all these things is vital to well being, for such pathological conditions in their turn become hotbeds of disordered functions and, in time, of disease. In many cases, good hygienic habit has never been known – as, say in many cases of the wrong exercise of the respiratory organs – while in others it has been thrust out of sight by the strenuous demands of modern life.
What we want above all else is to be able to put our patients into surroundings which shall not only be helpful from the physiological standpoint, but which shall also appeal to all that is highest in Man, as well as to the sense of natural beauty and its deep repose. Fine scenery, high and pure air, such nearness to home as may make the patient more receptive to the idea of travel and necessary sojourn – all these have their effect on the nervous system and tend towards the restoration of healthy vibrations by the removal of causes of worry and discord, until the patient is strong enough to control himself amid the innumerable exigencies of life, and to govern his thoughts in the right direction both in good and evil fortune.
The various nature cures which are found so useful on the Continent – water cures, open air treatment, electrical treatment, dietetic precautions suited to the individual need after strict scientific examination: hygienic exercises, massage, rest-cures, the use of electrical currents, light and baths – each modern discovery in its due turn, all play their part in the restoration of health, and each should be at hand in a really scientific and up-to-date Sanatorium. Such an establishment would be primarily eclectic, for the requirement of one constitution or one mind is not that of another. Hence, we who wish to restore health permanently in chronic cases – the most difficult to deal with – should have at hand not one recuperative method, but a wide range from which to choose.
The proposed health Institute at Barmouth would meet these requirements in an unique manner. There is no similar Institution in Great Britain.
THE CLIMATE OF BARMOUTYH is one of exceptional equality: there are no extremes of heat and cold.
THE SITE OF THE SANATORIUM is sheltered from the North and North-West and almost entirely from the North-East, East, and South-East. It faces almost due South and has a splendid view of the mountain range of Cader Idris across the Estuary.
The site is flooded with sunshine all through the day from the time that the sun rises until it sets, and the average daily hours of sunshine are shown by the Meteorological Records to be longer than those of any place in these Islands, with the exception of places on the South Coast, and this difference is shown to be really of no importance when compared with the advantages which Barmouth possess. The disadvantage consists of an hour less sunshine per day. The advantage of the Sanatorium in especial is, that it is situated at a place which is not relaxing, even though its climate is mild.
It has frequently been stated that Barmouth is a relaxing place, and the fact that the myrtle, delicate fuschias, verbenas, veronicas, escaloneas, hydrangeas in profusion, eucalyptus trees, and other delicate plants grow freely in the open air, would lead one to this conclusion. But so much depends on situation. The open and yet sheltered site of the Sanatorium gives the advantage without the drawback and my experience of Barmouth for ten years drives me to the conclusion that the relaxation is really due to the reflection and radiation from the rocks behind some of the houses, especially in the middle and Western parts of the Town. The Orielton Hall site has not this disadvantage to contend with, situated as it is 280 feet above the sea level of the Estuary. The average sunshine record for Barmouth is over 1,756 hours per annum.
Of what constitutes climate, the character of the air is an important factor. In the neighbourhood of Barmouth the air is proved to be of exceptionally good quality: it is the combination of sea and mountain air, with the advantage that by reason of the “draw” of the air between the mountains which form the estuary of the Mawddach, there is always a sufficient frictional interchange to make the air very thoroughly oxygenated and even ozonic, thus imparting invigorating and life-giving qualities.
AS REGARDS THE WATER. In close proximity above the Sanatorium there are Springs, of which the rights are vested in the property. This water, on analysis, proves to be very good as drinking water, and compares most favourably with the famous Malvern water, as regards purity and potability.
The supply of the town itself has been secured from lakes situated on volcanic soil some five miles away from the town and is shown by analysis to be of exceptional purity, this even to the extent of constituting a difficulty from its softness.
AS REGARDS THE SCENERY. All who have been in Wales know the general character of the scenery, but the peculiarly appealing qualities of the view in and around Barmouth have to be seen to be appreciated. One need only refer to the various guide books to discover the universal testimony which is borne to the scene which is spread before one: and it is scarcely possible to over-estimate the value of the forces of Peace and Quiet which can fall upon the mind and nerves of those who are so situated as to be obliged to let this peace into their lives and dwell with them. By such means the quiet which is necessary counteracting remedy to the rush and strain of modern life, can be secured.
Those who will study the plans of the Sanatorium will see that it is being built with a view to secure the necessary quiet between room and room. The regulations will show that the work of the house will be carried on without disturbance to those residing there, while care and attention has been paid to securing rest and peace without any noise or disturbance interfering with the scenes spread before one.
In dealing with invalids who require rest, there are usually great disadvantages. Those whose health has broken down under the strain of modern life, are rarely able to go into the country or away from England, without the necessity of having some friend or relative , or others, to take care of them. Frequently the entire family goes away together, and the invalid is shut up in some hotel or apartments with those, who – with the kindest intentions in the world – have a wearing effect on his or her irritated nerves. Or, the invalid is one suffering from pains of various severity, or from conditions which require good nursing for their relief. Such conditions cannot be got under the ordinary circumstances of life in Hotel or apartment. All are not possessed of the wealth and leisure necessary to command suitable conditions for the separate life of the invalid. In the case of the “Natur Kurhaus”, this has been one of the chief considerations.
As will easily be perceived, the invalids will reside at the Sanatorium: they thus become possessed of every necessary in the way of food, climate, scenery, and quiet for their recovery. They will, in addition, have at their command all the physical means of baths, open air, gymnastic and electrical treatment, as will be detailed below, which can conduce to their recovery. In addition their friends or relatives or children, can stay in the Hotel where they will have every amusement and pleasure which the residence in such a place can afford, and the latter will have the satisfaction of knowing that their sick friend or relative is being cared for under the most perfect circumstances: and we must hope that they will see a daily improvement during the hours that they are allowed to visit the patients.
IN REGARD TO THE BATHS. A completely fitted and well organised establishment for treatment by heat and light will be provided, whether derived from the sun or from artificial electric production. Water treatment in all its forms by douches, sprays, packs, jets, etc., will be carried out, and reaction can be secured by application of heat or cold. Let it suffice to say that the most modern appliances will be used, and care taken that no expense shall be spared to render this establishment second to none on the continent of Europe, or in America.
It must not be supposed that the term “open air cure” is confined to the treatment of consumption. That is far from being the case. The application of “open air” to those who suffer from consumption is but one of many uses to which this form of treatment can be put. The training and education of the body to react properly to the varying conditions of heat and cold in contact with the open air, is one of the most important elements in the regulation of the hygiene of life.
In brief, the treatment at this Sanatorium consists of a system of training by which those who are out of health can recover it, and by which those who are moderately well and those who are recovering their health, can not only obtain health, but continuously maintain it. They will be taught how to get well and how to keep so.
IN REGARD TO THE SYSTEM OF EXERCISES. All forms of active motion by means of exercises done by the individual (gymnastic training), passive exercises done by others (massage and mechanical movements), respiratory exercises, Jui-Jitsu training: all will find their appropriate place in this establishment: and while it is trusted that the fads and fallacies of fanatical pioneers in the various processes of health culture will be avoided, there will be no element left unnoticed which can add to the possibilities of the Institute.
One important point should be mentioned, viz. the needs of children. In modern life as it is at present exists, the needs of the children constitute a very great demand. It is well known that every effort is made in the body politic to secure the control of the education of children. What can be more important than the life-education of children who may be made stronger, healthier, and better members of society by the education and training given to their bodies? It is in the early years that the training of every function should take place, and so form a firm basis of healthy strength.
As the child grows it is placed between two opposing forces. (A) The unregulated, or ill-regulated non-hygenic customs of its environment, the unnatural strain of modern conditions. These play upon and assist in the development of (B) any inherent tendencies.
The exercise, the dress, the diet of the child above all, his habits and methods of thought, tend away from the normal. Thus it is rare to find a child who breathes properly: modern dress has deflected the normal method of breathing which the child has as an infant, but which it gradually loses. His food, the ventilation of his rooms, do not assist the action and re-action of his skin. He imitates the non-hygenic habits of the adults by whom he is surrounded, or he contracts abnormal modes of eating, sitting, playing, standing, lying, from other children. He needs training in the acquirement of hygienic habits which will provide invaluable to his later life.
It would not be right in the scope of this pamphlet to enter fully into all the other points in connection with this subject: but every thinking man or woman must know by theory and experience that the training and education of the children committed to their care means anxious thought and, in many instances, heart rending failure.
We trust that the Sanatorium may ultimately prove to be the means of restoring health to many children and making their lived happier and sounder. The training and education of both mind and body will encourage their guardians to hope for their sound health, and may induce others to adopt the sound system of training whose good results are patent and noticeable.
Thus it will be seen that the effect of such a Sanatorium will be, in the first place, to endeavour to promote the healing of those who are ill, by removing them from the conditions in which their illness came upon them; By placing them under other conditions which will best conduce to the getting rid of troubles which are present; and further, by preventing any recurrence of such troubles. The rules for the healthy must necessarily undergo modification when we consider this. With the healthy man or woman, while diet, fluids, exercise, movements- mental and physical – all combine to keep them in good order and eliminate that which is bad in their systems and promote the necessary balance of waste and repair; in the sick person, who is either bedridden, or too weak to carry on such pursuits, it is necessary to substitute some equivalent which shall make up the balance.
It is not needful here to enter into a discussion of all the avenues into the body and the avenues out of the body, but let us sum up the one under Nutrition, and the other under the head of Elimination, and we shall then see that the channel which exists between the two is called the Circulation. Therefore, any proper methods of the application of heat , of cold, of electrical stimulation, of the circulation of air, of movement, are means of restoring the necessary balance to “all the ills to which the flesh is heir”. In their multiplicity these ills may really be reduced to their simple causes: the Nutrition, Elimination, and the Circulation are at the root of them all. Consequently, any Institution which is devoted to striking at these underlying principles, which are at the root, not only of all disease, but also at the root of the maintenance of health, will constitute a most powerful factor in the life of the Nation.
As will be seen from what is said above, this Institution will be provided with all the best known means of carrying on this work. The Sweating baths, sun baths, massage in its various forms, electrical stimulation, breathing exercises, and Rest and Peace, amid scenery of great natural beauty, will be all combined in the building up of the mental and physical health on the one hand, and the elimination of poisons on the other.
How great an area is covered by the application of such principles may be seen by the intelligent inspection of the following partial list of diseases which can be treated at such an Institution.
IT SHOULD BE BORNE IN MIND THAT CASES OF INFECTIOUS DISEASES ARE NOT INCLUDED:
Chronic catarrhal aflections: the results of Pleurisy, Asthma, Emphysema: Chronic affections of the larynx and pharynx: Catarrh of the nasal and frontal cavities and Catarrhs of the stomach: Sprue: Chronic constipation: chronic disorders of the liver and kidneys, and a large number of chronic disorders peculiar to women. All forms of Neurasthenia, neuralgia, Sciatica, Hysteria, Hypochondria, and the various commencing paralyses. All the various forms of Nervous Debility of the spine, and more especially of the sympathetic system: the various troubles in connection with the circulation, Haemorrhoids, the result of heart affections, chilliness of the extremities together with Grave’s disease. The constitutional affections such as rheumatism, gout, rheumatoid arthritis, anaemia, corpulancy: and diabetes. Scrofula, and many affections of the lymphatic glands, may all be effectively treated.
It will thus be seen it is NOT proposed to treat those suffering from consumption, uncompensated heart disease, and advanced disease of the kidneys, together with epilepsy and insanity.
From 1911 Barmouth re-established itself in the lists for C.H.A. holidays, 1034 (1911), 1157 (1912), 1014 (1913) and 868 in 1914. However, it functioned on lower numbers throughout the war (1914-18) and a wartime brochure of 1917 described Orielton Hall as a “large house standing high and overlooking the sea. The grounds have the finest views in Barmouth over the Mawddach Estuary to Cader Idris. The centre affords excursions combining the charm of The Lake District with that of the sea.” Among the places visited were Cregennan Lakes, Abergwynant Valley; Rhinog Fawr and Maes-y-Garnedd; Tyn-y-Groes, Cader Idris, Harlech Castle and Dolgellau. The centre at Barmouth remained popular until the 1980s. However, the public transport was unreliable and much needed to be done to the fabric of the old hall and a decision was taken in 1982 to cease operation in Barmouth. Thus a link with the early days of the N.H.R.U. was severed.
These have been cropping up all around the Bay Area, including a couple with end-o'-the-world electronic countdowns. Wonder who's paying for this? Maybe they haven't bothered with the mortgage or insurance bills.
I'm still surprised somebody hasn't graff'd a toilet under that poor guy's butt.
Still Stately After Almost Fifty Years
One of the Anchors of Constitution Plaza, Unit One (or 1CP, as we knew it when I worked there as a Security Guard in 1980) has stood since the early 1960s. It is a handsome building, one that greets visitors to the city arriving from the East.
I'm not entirely happy with the composition in this image, partly for reasons of angle and clutter. Unfortunately, I shot it while standing on the pedestrian bridge from One State Street, and to get the angle I wanted I would need to be about twenty feet left and another twenty up from my position, and I haven't yet had flying lessons. The other flaw is that nasty chain-link fence. When they demolished the old Channel 3 building, they destroyed the glass-filled railing (one panel still remains) and replaced it with the semi-permanent hurricane fence. What an eyesore; no wonder they have trouble renting out space.
Cropped half-senseless, this version doesn't make me much happier.
Soon I may face jail-time even for possessing let alone posting this. Scary stuff! Soylent Green is our future!
Do we have a right to know what we are eating or will we capitulate our control to Monsanto?

This little guy is obviously cute.
What isn't so easy to see is how sweet, curious, eager and loving he was too. Full of personality. Seriously.
Though in this picture it seems easy for me to see how happy he was when I arrived. See how he's jumped up on the water dispenser to be closer to me?
Underneath it all though was also a certain sadness to him not just in the confinement but with a inbourne knowledge that he was hatched with just one purpose and that was to be killed for just part of one meal of gluttony; a meal celebrated for over-eating and indulgence.
See, he was eaten just 5 months (20 weeks/140 days) later so someone could have a supposed "guilt-free" main-dish on the "Thanksgiving" table.
Kind of the equivalent of eating a 5-year-old child.
Yes, yes... certainly his life, short as it was, was marginally better than the vast majority of turkeys that are killed each year for that same one-day meal. Their lives are truly horrendous as is the everyday lives of the other 9 billion poultry (mostly chickens) that are consumed each year in the United States... It certainly was environmentally better, but having witnessed it first-hand (so to speak) I would not call it fun, or even comfortable. Not a good life.
Despite the chicks being raised on a farm run by some of the most conscientious people I've ever known. It's still about catering to the humans and the bottom-line.
The chicks went from a plywood box of confinement in a barn to a bigger one outside that was moveable so they did always have real dirt under them but green only on occasion and the majority of their existance was spent in a crowded box looking out over the world they would never experience (except for all the weather because they had no real shelter) being fed commodity type crops (though at least organic but that was more for those who would eat them than for the turkey's comfort and benefit as it was still the cheapest that would get them fattest in time for the ultimate dinner).
It was so sad to me that I could hardly visit the last few weeks because I saw these little lives lose more will each passing day so that even in the end they would not bother to come for the fresh greens and fruit I would bring them in my effort to make their prison slightly less unbearable.
For me, it strengthened my resolve not to be a part, a cause of this cruelty that is still arguably not healthful so really only for a selfish indulgence.
For this little guy though, it's all over. A couple days after being killed he was so much constipation, and then sewer-effluent.
Maybe someday beings from another planet will land here and do the same to us. Maybe then we'll understand.
Until then, everyone should have to raise their own meals (and maybe send their own children out to be raised by others...).

After our recent celery harvest we have been scratching our heads
trying to think how we can use this crop. The vegetable stock made a
pretty good dent in the celery harvest. We still have a lot more. I
approached the local health food store and they were willing to buy
some of our celery. I'd rather use it ourselves than make $20 on a
crop that took us over a year to grow. This morning I juiced a good
portion of celery with apple, pear, ginger, carrot and strawberries.
That turned out pretty tasty and celery has some nice health benefits
from juicing that I was not aware of. It is high in magnesium, iron,
potassium plus some vitamin C and sodium.
"Celery and celeriac juice is traditionally used for: asthma,
constipation, fever, fluid retention, gout, headache, inflammation,
insomnia, kidneys, liver, lungs, migraine, nervous problems and weight
loss."
Ugg, so out of ideas today.
But it did feel good to finally have my babe home. Today was our Saturday. We went to see Ghost Town (cute, with some definite piss-your-pants-laughing moments, but still a little too cheesy), ate at the Rice Box (a delicious, yet undiscovered Chinese place), then home for awesome Sunday night TV (cartoons on Fox & my new favorite show True Blood).
Eno's Fruit Salt, Adelaide Street. Not sure whether the sign was preserved when the building was refinished, or was painted on after the new facing was added.
Eno's Fruit Salt appears to have been an anti-constipation powder. I've seen ads for it in 1930's newspapers; not sure how long they were making it.
Even though the building has not been remodelled recently, the sign is now gone.

And you thought you had seen everything I have to photograph. LOL I don't know when this dates from , but it was very old when I found it over 22 years ago. Anyone know how to pronouce it?

Certain exercises can help to strengthen abdominal muscles and increase blood flow, stimulating digestion and alleviating digestive discomfort. Exercise not only helps to relieve constipation, but it can also help to reduce stress and fatigue, improve sleep, and increase energy levels.
A wild riot of colour as thousands celebrate London's Gay Pride Parade 2011. London 02.07.2011
This Saturday July 2nd 2011 saw the explosion of colour and fabulous carnival/cabaret fancy-dress which is the annual Gay Pride parade passing through the packed London streets as many Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual and Transgender groups representing special interest campaigning groups, trade unions, the armed forces, police service, christian groups and several of London's gay bars and clubs celebrated their sexuality and diversity, watched and cheered on by tens of thousands of enthusiastic members of the public.
The days celebrations were purposefully snubbed by London mayor Boris Johnson much to the anger and irritation of many, since Mr. Johnson is expected to show support for all Londoners. However, his greatest opponent in the upcoming mayoral elections, former London Mayor Ken Livingstone was to be seen - as always - at the head of the parade, accompanied by human and gay rights activist Peter Tatchell.
Gone was the nervous tension of the original trail-blazing Gay Pride marches of the late 1970's and early 80's, as a new generation of gay people enjoy far greater public acceptance of their lifestyle in what feel like more enlightened times. What is taken for granted now was fought for in the past by courageous activists and their political supporters who wanted to see an end to the homophobic bigotry and institutionalised discrimination which used to be the universal public position towards them.
Having said that, there was a demonstration set up at the bottom of Waterloo Place by a group of so-called Christians from the Baptist Church - some of whom looked like they had been time-warped directly from the 1950's, complete with emotional constipation - who spent the entire afternoon insulting and demeaning all gay people and anyone who accepts homosexuality as a part of the enormously wide spectrum of human sexuality by cherry-picking snippets from the Bible completely without proper context, and generally showing themselves up to be nothing more than a bunch of hate-filled bigots who hilariously claim to love the people they were standing there belittling.
My photos of the Baptists and the crowd's reactions to being assaulted by the pious abuse are already uploaded in my set "Baptists preach intolerance at Gay Pride Parade".
After the parade made its way from Portland Place to Trafalgar Square, the marchers and bystanders alike dispersed into Soho for some serious street partying which lasted late into the night. There was a main stage in Trafalgar Square which hosted a long rosta of minor-league pop and dance acts during the afternoon, though oddly this year there were no big-name headliners, and another Dance Stage in Soho Square which featured a great line-up of club DJs.
