Avid reader/reviewer and editor. I don't pull punches when I review, love it or hate it, you get what I think.
It's been quite a while since I've curled up with a spy novel, so maybe I'm out of the loop on the genre, but The Tourist left me somewhere in the fair to midland range. There's a lot of dialogue and the story is repetitive at times, plus there are several things that seem to rely on everyone, including Milo, being either oblivious or not very bright, both of which seem out of sorts with a spy novel. In the end, The Tourist left me wanting more - more action, more intrigue, more tension, just more. It isn't a bad story, but it isn't a particularly great one either.

text: Profile of phenolic compounds of Tilia rubra subsp. caucasica was measured by high performance liquid chromatography coupled with ultraviolet and tandem mass spectroscopy. Three different extraction methods (methonolic, selective extraction, and acidic hydrolysis) were used to evaluate phenolic composition and antioxidant capacity in three different parts of T. rubra. The antioxidant activities of the species were investigated in terms of total phenolics and flavonoids, and cupric reducing antioxidant capacity and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl scavenging assays. Different phenolic compounds related to antioxidant activities of three different parts and three different extraction ways of T. rubra were determined by high performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet and high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectroscopy. Gallic and protocatechuic acid were the main phenolic compounds in the all extracts and parts of Tilia rubra subsp. caucasica by high performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet ranging from 356.20 to 159.83 and 1873.90 to 720.80 g phenolic compound/g dry sample, respectively. Epicatechin, luteolin, and rhamnazin were detected by high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectroscopy.

Seabuckthorn powder is made from seabuckthorn juice by spray drying or freeze-drying. Its characteristics are easy to preserve, transport and use. Seabuckthorn powder is rich in a large number of nutrients. The fruit of sea buckthorn is sweet and sour. It is rich in protein. Among the more than 20 amino acids it contains, 8 essential amino acids are included.
Buckthorn fruit powder has anti-oxidant effects. Seabuckthorn powder preserves the original vitamin C, carotenoids, brass and other nutrients in seabuckthorn juice. These nutrients can resist oxidation and eliminate free radicals on cell membranes. Buckthorn fruit powder has the effect of supplementing vitamins because it contains very rich natural active ingredients. There are vitamin A, a large amount of low-ester pectin, a variety of trace elements, vitamin B, vitamin VB2, vitamin C contained in sea buckthorn fruit. Among them, the content of vitamin C is the highest.
YT Biochem provide bulk order of seabuckthorn powder. Please feel free to contact us if any interests.

For my first amphibian creation I decided
to attempt the extremely rare Natterjack Toad (Bufo calamita). Sadly it's only found in a handful of sites
in the UK now and is classified as an endangered species. It is distinguished from the Common Toad mainly by the yellow
stripe down its back.
Nat is pretty much life-sized, measuring approximately 9cm (~3.5") from front
to back. He is made from cashmere fabrics and has ultrasuede undersides to the hands and feet. He
is stuffed with polyfil with cotterpin and hardboard jointed arms and legs. Additionally his arms and legs have
been wired for poseability. His gorgeous realistic glass taxidermy eyes have been set into polymer clay sockets
with wired backs to allow secure fixing into place. Semiprecious unakite cabochons represent his warts and parotid glands
(the bulges found at the back of the head). His mouth and nostrils have been embroidered with black perle cotton.
Nat was really quite a challenge to create, the shape
is quite different to that of a teddy bear. His design comprises 65 separate pieces of fabric, whew! I do hope that
I've managed to capture the look of a toad.
*Nat has gone to live in Wisconsin,

The Radiation Network is potentially global, and we now have some Monitoring Stations reporting intermittently from Australia, and an intermittent station from neighboring Bali, in Indonesia.= Nuclear Site Alert Level = 3 consecutive minutes of lesser of 100 CPM or 2.5 times a Station's baseline
*Readings not Equalized means the Monitoring Stations are broadcasting the raw radiation count from their Geiger counters, without adjustment for different count rates existing between various Geiger counter designs. For instance, models built around a "Pancake" (see Map Legend) style of Geiger-Mueller tube typically have a 3 times count rate over Standard tubed models.
Note the multiple nuclear sites in Australia, including Lucas Heights Nuclear Power Plant just southwest of Sydney, and some thriving Uranium mining regions in South Australia and in the Darwin region of Northern Territory. The nation of Australia is one of the largest Uranium ore producers in the world.
Further west yet, among the vast stretches of barren plain, are two nuclear test sites, Emu Field and Buffalo Test Site, where above-ground atomic tests occurred in the 1950's. Like the US and the Soviet Union, atomic testing was conducted in Australia as well, in this case on behalf of the British. A third test site was located on the Monte Bello Islands off the west coast.
