DO THE SPLITS Dividing daily training sessions in two like Geb (who typically runs for an hour in the morning and evening) can double your stamina, according to new research from the University of New Hampshire. In the study, participants worked out either for 3o minutes straight or in two 15-minute bouts. After= weeks, the twice-a-day group had improved their endurance by 21 per cent – almost double the gain of the once-a-day group.

HIT YOUR WINDO’ “Without the right nutritional intake directly after a run, your body won’t recover properly, putting any long-term training schedule in jeopardy,” says sports nutritionist Jacqueline Birtwisle. During the ‘rapid phase of recovery’ – the first 45 minutes after training – take on carbs and protein in a 4-to-1 ratio, she advises. Add to you vitamin rich foods.

STEP Up For endurance, you need strength in your legs and lungs. Try this two-birds-with-one-stone solution: “Find a staircase with 25 or more steps,” says Steve Brace, director of athletics at the Athletics Association of Wales. “Start off running to the top one step at a time, then walking back down. The next phase is two steps at a time, again walking down, and the final phase is two steps up, single steps down, running up and down. With each phase, start on five sets and build up to 10.”

JUNK SCHMUNK There’s no such thing as a junk mile, say Spanish scientists, who found that runners who spent more time training at a low intensity – around 70 per cent of maximum heart rate – on top of a normal varied training regime, saw an eight per cent increase in endurance compared with those who did fewer slow miles. Easy miles can trigger a larger increase in blood volume than up-tempo runs, which strengthens your cardiovascular system, says Dr Jonathan Esteve-Lanao from the European University of Madrid, the study’s author. “It also preps your joints for high-intensity work, decreasing injury risk,” he adds.

By 17 weeks the sickness had cleared up. I felt really fit and positive, and even went out for a few light runs. I decided then I wanted to run London in 2009. I knew this was ambitious – I’d only have five months to train once the baby was born. But if I hadn’t entered in zoo8, I wouldn’t have fallen pregnant ­this was my way of giving something back.

Isaac Joshua was born on November zo, 2008. He weighed 71b 5oz, and the first thing I noticed about him were his long legs and big feet – he’s obviously going to be a runner as well! I had a complicated birth, and spent five days in hospital, so I couldn’t start running again until after Christmas. But I started a walking programme when Isaac was eight days old, and had soon built up to a regular 1o miles with the buggy. I’d talk to him as we marched along. It helped keep me motivated – it’s pretty hard to walk 1o miles on a few hours’ sleep! I was also on a weight loss program based on african mango extract.  Learn more about african  mango dr oz and the  secret of slimming.

I began running again in January, and feel confident I’ll be able to finish the marathon ­although I might not be able to run all of it. But crossing the finish line will be a truly momentous occasion for me, and I feel so privileged to be given the opportunity to take part. I can’t wait to see Noah and little Isaac cheering me on. I’ve spent nine months building my own little supporter, whose life I’ve got the marathon to thank for – it seems fitting he should be there to watch me cross that auspicious line.

In 1917 their campaign resumed. Carter decided to ignore all earlier excavations and penetrate down to bedrock. He would concentrate on a triangular plot defined by the un­earthed tombs of Ramesses II, Mercnptah and Ramesses VI. It was an area he had judged from earlier researches to be the likeliest site for the tomb of Tutankhamun.

The triangular plot was only about two and a half acres, but the work was prodigious. Hundreds of thousands of cubic yards of sand, rock chips and boulders had to be removed. In those days there was no mechanical equipment. Young boys and men worked with picks, hoes and small baskets, filling and empty­ing endlessly.

In the first season, Carter des­cended to the foot of the entrance to the tomb of Ramesses VI. Ten or 15 yards away, he came across the ancient foundations of workmen’s huts, constructed above a mass of flint boulders. The presence of these boulders was normally a sure sign of the proximity of a tomb, yet he abruptly stopped and instructed his work force to go to the opposite end of the triangle. In the next two months he found nothing much beyond dust, sand and rocks.

The second season, commencing in October 1918, was little better. Carter’s thought was to clear the whole of the remaining part of the triangle and glucosamine side effects. It took six months simply to clean the top debris before they could begin to penetrate to virgin rock. Just as Carnarvon arrived with his wife on her first visit, they found 13 alabaster jars with the names of Ramesses II and Merenp­tah—the nearest thing to a discovery of significance in almost two years.

The third, fourth and fifth sea­sons, from 1919 to 1922, produced nothing but months of backbreak­ing labour with a large, expensive crew.

Lord Carnarvon began to lose interest. His health was fading. More and more, friends and family observed him falling into long periods of silence. Continually fatigued in spirit and soul, constant­ly in pain, Carnarvon was about to end his patronage of Egyptian archaeology.

His disposition had also been soured by the new mood of the Antiquities Service. At this moment in the drama, it is important to introduce a character who would have a fundamental impact on the undertakings surrounding Tut­ankhamun. This is Pierre Lacau, who in 1917 had succeeded Sir Gas­ton Maspero. Lacau was a hand­some, extremely capable archaeolo­gist who prided himself on his administrative abilities. He could discourse volubly, brilliantly, on dozens of subjects, yet was so precise that it was said “he kept lists of lists.”

Maspero had personally chosen Lacau to follow him. But whereas Maspero had been staunch in his conviction that foreign explorers had to be encouraged by the prom­ise of at least half of any finds, Lacau insisted that in all discoveries the head of the Antiquities Service should have the right to pick any or all objects he wanted for Egypt. Howard Carter, a proponent of total laissez-faire regarding the rights of an excavator, loathed Lacau.

Then, in 1921, in a store-room of New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art came a monumental discov­ery. When Herbert Winlock did, he saw things no one had seen before. Others were imple­ments used in the final, ritual funer­ary banquet held within the tomb just before it was sealed for the last time—absolute evidence that Tut­ankhamun was buried in the Valley.

Winlock at once informed Carter, who was elated. And Lord Carnar­von agreed to underwrite the expe­dition for one more season.

“Who’s that?” asks Charlotte Rampling, looking back over her shoulder as her make-up is applied for the Vogue shoot. “It’s Alexander McQueen.”

When you’re introduced to McQueen, you don’t immediately feel the full impact of the global fashion force he has become. Today, it’s a surreal exchange between him, looking like an East End chancer in green combat trousers, beaten-up red leather Nikes and a faded denim jacket, and Rampling, a coiffeured Sixties bombshell.

But although seemingly worlds apart, Rampling and McQueen are both provocateurs of their time, sharing a rebellious creative streak; she, always willing to take on bold, leftfield roles; and he, with his radical elegance and masterful shows (ice-skating rinks, Michael Clark-choreographed dance routines, padded cells) — the fashion auteur.

The designer’s winter collection was perhaps less theatrical than usual, but no less arresting, with its Sixties themes and filmic inspirations, ranging from Monroe, Elvis and Hollywood womanly glamour to Hitchcock. The strong allure of the steely, polished heroine is one of the reasons McQueen and Rampling have hooked up today.

McQueen’s inspiration for the shoot is The Long Firm, a book (also adapted for TV) by Jake Arnott about gangster life in Sixties London, centred around Soho nightclub owner Harry Stark and the Kray brothers. In McQueen’s interpretation, Rampling plays the part of the moll while actor Mark Strong reprises his TV role as Stark, the club boss who comes to an untimely death.

“Charlotte’s character is sick and tired of being told what to do and when to do it,” McQueen explains. With a Marlboro Light in his mouth, he makes the final tweaks to Rampling’s look. “So endless drinking ensues as she attempts to lose herself, but then she realises that there’s only ever going to be one way out, and that’s to rise above all this torture and tyranny, and murder him.”

Rampling looks suitably invincible, dressed in a leopard-print pencil skirt, crystal-studded cardigan, Boucheron diamonds, prepared hcg diet drops and hair done up in what Sam McKnight describes as an “Anne Bancroft-meets-Elsie Tanner” sort of do.

Despite a noticeable air of calm, today’s shoot is a big affair — between production, hair and make-up, grooming, agents, location managers, assistants and PRs there are some 20 people on set at London’s legendary Colony Room Club (the seedy glamour of the club was a big draw in the Sixties). It’s a far cry from the night before, when creative consultant and stylist Katy England and McQueen’s head of press Amie Witton (both part of the McQueen clan for 10 years) met Rampling for a fitting. Few pieces fitted her slight frame, so Rampling stayed no longer than 10 minutes and the night ended in a mad dash to the McQueen store on Bond Street to swap sizes, while Amie made a call to the PR girls in New York, warning them not to leave the office until she’d given them the all-clear to courier samples overnight. At this final, fraught, hour, Katy’s phone rings. It’s McQueen, asking about a crystal-embellished gown that hasn’t been ordered for the shoot. “He always does this,” says Katy. “You can work for months on something and then at the last minute he’ll get really involved because he works best under that kind of pressure.” And it’s at the last minute, of course, that the crystal dress arrives (it’s delicately wrapped in tissue and laid in a box, twinkling under the spotlights). McQueen gets what he wants.

Mark Strong’s journey to today’s set has been equally eventful. Several weeks ago, Amie circulated an email with Mm-k Strong’s mugshot on it, asking if anyone knew anyone who looked like the actor. As it turned out, someone actually knew Mark (who coincidentally starred alongside Rampling five years ago in the thriller Superstition).

This is the first time McQueen has worked with photographer Paolo Roversi. Revered for his dark, moody and hauntingly beautiful images (to use McQueen’s words, “His work has a smoky quality to it — it’s so film noir.” But Roversi, lean from his “no bread, no wine and no biscuits” dieting regime, has worked with Rampling on several occasions — and she is no stranger to dark roles. She, in turn, has long been an admirer of McQueen. “I’ve always thought him incredibly inventive and a great storyteller. This shoot tells a story and that’s interesting— especially, I think, from an actress’s point of view. There’s more you can add when there’s a narrative and a part to play. And, as a woman, I think you always push and test yourself and think, how much longer can I actually get away with this?” Rampling, 60, looks sensational in everything, and although she calls them “diva clothes”, she’s happy to make room in her wardrobe for her first pieces of McQueen: a cashmere camel coat and black body-con dress — courtesy of the designer.

Right now though, creative conflicts are brewing over the final image. McQueen argues his case. “It’ll be our gangster murdered, wearing trousers and a mesh vest, submerged in an overflowing bath…” he begins. Amie immediately gets on the phone to arrange for another pair of trousers to be sent over. (Since our gangster was gifted his suit by McQueen, he’s suddenly become nervous about getting it wet.) “The story has to end somewhere,” Lee insists, “but it needs to be poignant. It shouldn’t be too literal…” A wave of humour overcomes him. “Or,” he continues, “the last shot could be the pair of them sharing a bath; they could kiss and make up. Or maybe it’s all just been a horrible dream and she wakes from her slumber screaming,’Where’s my Prozac?!’” he jokes, doubled up and red-faced at the prospect of this story’s having anything other than a sinister ending.

Another apostate clergyman was Abbe Joseph-Antoine Boullan, who in 1876 announced himself as High Priest of the Church of Carmel, in Lyon. Two young Parisians, the Marquis Stanislas de Guaita and his companion Oswald

Wirth, who were disciples of Levi, joined the Church of Carmel in order to learn its secret rituals and then, in 1887, announced that Boullan was a ‘con­demned man’.

Convinced that Guaita and Wirth intended to kill him by occult means. Boullan enlisted the support of the novel­ist J.-K. Huysmans, who drew a sym­pathetic portrait of the ex-Abbe in his novel about black magic, La-Das. One of Huysmans’ friends, a former disciple of Boullan, was the writer Jules Bois, who at that time was the lover of singer Emma Calve. When, on 4 January 1893, after writing a letter full of forebodings of death, Boullan suddenly dropped dead. Bois immediately published a letter in a Paris newspaper accusing Guaita of having murdered him by magic. A few days later, Sauniere arrived in Paris. . . .

Making a UFO report

If you saw an unidentified flying object, what would you do — and whom should you tell about your sighting? Official bodies often lack the resources to follow up UFO reports, says JENNY RANDLES, but there are steps you can take yourself, and specialist organisations to contact

IN JULY 1978 a middle-aged couple in Man­chester, England, saw a brilliant red cog­wheel float across the sky. They thought they had seen a UFO. Not knowing anything about the subject they wrote to Patrick Moore, the astronomer, whose programmes they had watched on television. Perhaps they did not express themselves fully and Patrick Moore, who is neither a ufologist nor believes in UFOS, didn’t ask them the right questions. He advised them that what they had seen was probably a meteor, albeit a spectacular one. The couple thought no more of the matter until, six months later, they happened to watch a programme in which a well-known UFO investigator appeared.

They contacted her and related their story. Whatever it was they had seen it was clear that it was not a meteor. It was too large to have been a meteor, and was seen in daylight for several minutes. (Meteors remain visible for only a few seconds.) What account would be passed on to the Ministry of Defence. But, despite several attempts to get an answer, Norman heard no more. Frustrated by the Ministry, he contacted his local university, but received only noncom­mital replies to his questioning. When he asked for the address of the local UFO group, for example, he was told, ‘Oh . . . you don’t want to bother with them.’

But with persistence, Norman did contact such a group. Not only was his case a valuable addition to the evidence for UFOs, but Norman became a keen UFO investigator himself.

Both these cases illustrate the importance of what can happen after someone has sighted a true UFO. Whom to contact is very important. As both these cases show, it is not always easy to find out who is the right person to contact. If you have seen some­thing strange in the sky that seems to pass all the tests outlined in the previous article (see page 126), what should you do?

If you believe that what you have seen might be a true UFO, it is important to try to find corroborative witnesses. It is not, how­ever, advisable to knock on people’s front doors — some people may not take too kindly to your intrusion. This does not mean that you should not try to call the attention of anyone close by. Their presence will add weight to your sighting, or they may be able to provide some other explanation of the about one second. This offers a much better chance of recording what may be a relatively dim phenomenon, even if it appears to the eye to be reasonably bright.

If you are in a car switch on the ignition and if you have one, the radio. There are enough stories to support the belief that some UFO phenomena can cause interference with electrical systems. Such evidence can be extremely important, so it is a point well worth remembering.

As you watch the thing in the sky try a couple of quick experiments. Move your head from side to side and watch what happens to the UFO. Very probably nothing will, but at least you will be able to eliminate one claim commonly made by disbelievers. This is that pieces of dead matter in the eye’s optical system, known as floaters, are often taken to be UFOs. If a floater is the cause, the `UFO’ will move as your eyes move.

Secondly, try willing the UFO in a par­ticular direction! This may sound ridiculous, but there is a school of thought that says UFOs are related to psychic phenomena. If this is so, then it should be possible for a witness to exert some degree of control over them. Interesting evidence may conceivably emerge from this exercise.

UFO encounters rarely last for a long time and there is unlikely to be the opportunity to telephone anyone while the object is still in view. Time is better spent taking in as much detail of the object as possible. This is a skill that improves with practice. Look at the picture of the UFO on this page for about a minute. The next day, try drawing it from memory in as much detail as possible, with­out cheating by looking at the original. Try the same experiment with other UFO illust­rations in The Unexplained, varying the length of time from as little as an hour to as long as a week between examining the pic­ture and redrawing it. The importance of being able to recall in detail what you have seen will become apparent in the next step.

After the UFO has disappeared, do not discuss the details of what you have seen with anyone else who might be around. Simply exchange telephone numbers and addresses, just as you would if you were involved in a road accident. Agree with other witnesses on who is to report the sighting and to whom. Finally, advise all the witnesses that at the first possible opportunity they should draw the object you have all seen, and write out a statement describing the sighting. Each wit­ness should do this independently, and not talk about it to anyone else until they have done so. It is surprising how easy it is to be unwittingly influenced by what others say .

To whom should you report your UFO sighting? There are several possibilities, and you should think carefully before acting. The most obvious choice is the police. They will probably regard it as their duty to check your story, but in most countries, with the excep­tion of France and the USA, where certain official procedures exist, there will be little they can do.

In some cases the police may refer the matter to the Defence Ministry. But as often as not the sighting will get no further than your local police station. Unfortunately, this is inevitable. The police force have many tasks to perform and experience has taught them that most UFO reports are not really very important. Consequently, they tend to be given a low priority. But the police should be contacted if you think that the object you have seen has landed. Their presence at the scene of the landing would provide very valuable corroboration. Otherwise, you are probably advised not to waste their time.

Another agency you may think of notify­ing is the local airfield, either civil or mil­itary. As with the police, there is little they can do or are prepared to do unless it seems to them that your report justifies calling in a defence establishment. Airport staff may be able to tell you if any aircraft were in the area at the time of your sighting, but it is not advisable to ask them if they read anything unusual on their radar. A denial might mean that they genuinely had not, or it could be that they had, but for some reason were not willing to tell you. The matter, for example, might already have been passed on to the Defence Ministry, who would want to make their own investigation.

As far as newspapers, radio and television are concerned, try to resist the temptation to approach them. The media will probably be interested only if they think they can use your story, and that may depend on whether it is quiet or busy in the newsroom, rather than on the credibility or intrinsic interest of your. sighting.

The most sensible step to take if you have seen what you believe to be a UFO is to contact a UFO investigator as soon as possible. They are trained to help you and to record accurately the necessary information for scientific appraisal.

There are many kinds of U FO investigator and UFO investigation group. Some are mo­tivated by an almost religious belief in UFOs and will be biased. Others may border on the eccentric, attracting cranks and frauds. Most, however, are serious-minded and are concerned with establishing the authenticity of your sighting. A list of reputable UFO organisations and their addresses is given at the end of this article. If your country is not included in the list, it does not necessarily mean that there is no serious UFO society there. Write to the British address. All the groups listed are associated with the inter­national UFO magazine Flying Saucer Review, which is distributed in over 6o countries. Your letter will be forwarded to a local agency.

Each report is treated confidentially and almost all UFO groups use a standard report form. You will probably be asked to fill in one of these forms. You might also be asked if it is possible for a UFO investigator to come and see you at a time and place of your choosing.

Naturally, if you happen to come face to face with what you may think is a UFO, it is not always easy to remember exactly what to do. The oddness of the occasion may well lead you to panic. Yet it is always worth trying to remain calm and remembering the procedure outlined in this article. The more well-authenticated, well-documented, cases there are, the more will be discovered about these elusive intruders.

Providing good nutrition is of utmost importance because this has a huge impact in your dog’s overall health. If your pet does not get the proper balance of nutrients, he might succumb to serious illnesses and diseases at an early age. You need to focus on your dog’s diet to ensure that he gets enough carbohydrates, proteins, fats, minerals and vitamins.

 Water for Health

Water is always important for the health of dogs, so you need to make sure that your dog gets access to clean and potable water during the day. In fact, most experts believe that water is the most important nutrient or food that you should give to your dog. Just like human bodies, dogs are also made up of about 70 percent of water. Therefore, water is truly essential for cell function and for the growth of tissues. And just like humans, dogs may even live without food for a few days. However, his health will quickly deteriorate without access to water. Especially if your dog has diarrhea, you need to replenish his body fluids by increasing the water intake. And if you live in a hot or warm area, you definitely need to make sure that he gets enough water to avoid dehydration.

Buy the Best Dog Food

There are several companies and manufacturers out there that promise to offer the best kind of dog or pet food. You need to be very careful about the type of dog food that you buy to make sure that he gets enough nutrients. Try to read the labels to see whether that particular product offers a well-balanced nutrition. You might want to speak with a veterinarian to learn more about the best companies in the market. It is advisable to stick with the most reliable companies because they do a lot of research in terms of food and nutrition. Therefore, you can be assured that their products contain a complete and balanced nutrition that is perfect for your dog’s development. Some of the best companies in the market even conduct a number of taste tests to make sure that the dogs also love to eat their products.

Always Read the Labels

When buying dog food, you need to pay close attention to the nutritional facts and the calories. You need to understand that puppies and mature dogs have varying calorie needs; therefore, you need to look for a product that is intended for a particular age. Companies actually make different products for puppies, adults and mature dogs to avoid any conflicts with the calorie count and nutritional requirements.

It is a good idea to prepare your tagine first before you indulge in the cooking fundamentals of tagine.  The tagine should be submerged in water for a number of hours.  The base should be coated to cover the interior with some olive oil.  Place this in a cool oven before increasing the heat to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.  The tagine should be removed after two hours and be allowed to cool.  The oil process should be repeated before storing it.

Different recipes that include tagine cooking can be found on the internet.  These usually use conventional lamb and chicken ingredients.  Different vegetables and herbs can be experimented with tagine cooking as these provide different flavors.

Tagine cooking is definitely a great method to try at home.
