JBS is featured in BrandeisNow. Check it out!

Hannah Wellish, student on JBS Environmental Health and Justice Program, creates a short video about the students' work with Worcester Roots.

Class will typically meet on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday (with variations to work around the fall calendar). The Environmental Field Semester totals approximately 240 contact hours. Mornings will be devoted to classroom work and afternoons to field work. Tuesday and Friday can be used by students for field and archival research.

Class will meet in the morning for two, one-and-one-half-hour blocks. Topics will include the historical and ecological development of New England and particularly Waltham and Weston, contemporary environmental challenges and the legal and political context in which decisions about land are made. Particular attention will be paid to how these communities have been shaped as part of the development of greater Boston, protection of species and ecological services in a fragmented suburban environment and sustainable local food and wood production. Morning sessions might also include Geographic Information System (GIS) training.

Afternoon sessions will be devoted to field work on research projects. Throughout the semester students will engage in coordinated group projects involving parcels of conservation land in Weston. Working in small teams they will explore land use history, conduct ecological inventories and design stewardship and education plans. They will work closely with community organizations such as the Weston conservation commission and school department.

Students will learn research skills such as GIS mapping, inventory methods and field and archival historical research, along with communication skills in effective writing and public presentation. They will write detailed reports, and at semester's end, will present their findings at a forum for members of the Brandeis and Weston communities.

Note that this schedule and all information is subject to change.

A Ghost Story
By Lennox J. Moreno Lugo on February 10, 2017

Sundance surprisingly offered a bounty of theologically curious visions and intuitions, whether consciously or not. From day one, I infiltrated the narratives of an all-too human but forgivable Menashe, witnessed an attempt at divine marriage in Margaret Betts euphoric Novitiate, overheard the confession and repentance of the Crown Heights antagonists, engaged in uproar at a church gathering in Whose Streets, and zonked at the tallowed First Testament and baptismal references of The Yellow Birds. Heck, even the panel discussions alluded to a General Revelation whereby a spiritual breakthrough at the movies could remind us of a sincere and serious cultural curiosity about God occurring anywhere everywhere. These were Festival Films. Immediate. Important. Persuasive. Far more influential than they were flawed. This is the stuff that speaks, and speaks deeply.

But there was a movie that had the curious effect of flooring me straight to the ceiling, and trying to begin a review or response to it is like trying to eat soup with a fork -- because David Lowery’s A Ghost Story lures the inner-mystic more than the realistic. Nevertheless, I persisted, and into the unpredictable I a’went, squandering for some former narrative experiences for aesthetic cohesion until fully surrendering to this virtuoso achievement in storytelling. Midway through, I dropped my pen, having no idea what would happen from one scene to the next. All I knew is that I loved being on board with this vessel and its skipper, because A Ghost Story is everything I love about the movies. The first few scenes are strange, silent, lovely, and oh so peacefully creepy. You are asked to sit with scenes you may think are “complete”, and are further asked to sit with Casey Affleck’s character longer than you may want -- but for a purpose. The purpose becomes apparent as each scene builds on the next, adding up to a story about one’s perception of our place in time and our time in a place on the stage of reality we call life -- and the meditation of life after this life. Casey Affleck is a resurrected spiritual being that returns to his home after he has died in the flesh. He has become a Ghost with little or no words, and his Ghost doesn’t do much much at all but observe, but when either of these happen -- it is with gravity and purpose. Oh yes. Because once you change the way you see things, the seen things change. Consider the many times his Ghost turns his head in recognition of something in the next room or something yet to come, or the way he stands in a single space like a soul searching for something he’d lost in a former life, bearing witness to the events and modes of his wife’s wrestling with her ongoing grieving. His Ghost, shrouded silent, watches on, intent on staying the course of haunting and remaining in place, perhaps for years at a time -- mostly in secrecy and stillness, sometimes with ghastly familiar ghostly tremors and rumbles that’ll rustle your roots. The movie may lose its Hollywood appeal in it’s sometimes deliberate extreme long-takes, but I suggest you yawp a hefty clear “So What!” -- because the patience is the point, not the racing of Hollywood pacing. The pace of scenes can draw out and stop on a button, then return unto a larger rhyme and rhythm, then speed up, and slow down to turn back on itself and begin again. Like a Led Zeppelin epic tune that never seeks to waste your time. Oh yes. In Hollywood, you need permission to accomplish this. In Indie film, you don’t. So, soon as you know it, A Ghost Story shifts about half-way through because heck, the richest parts of our lives cannot be told in one-telling or one form or even at a single pace -- they're just too rich to be reduced.

Like 1968’s wondrous 2001: A Space Odyssey, the movie’s uber-clever elliptical editing allows an epic vision that somehow carries its intricate sensitive soundtrack of quietude along with a CalTech-worthy thesis on the concept of Space-Time. The Sundance audience sat silent with the nature of the movie in a certain sense onlookerism, as if we were waiting for something to come popping out of the polaroid-like corners. Indeed, sometimes things did! During a stage of silent suspense, the lady next to me jumped out of her chair and hollered at the mere turning on of a living room light. That got a jolly ol’chuckle from the congregation, er, crowd. I may have even whispered the word “Wonderful!” a little too loud. Oh, the things that sound better in our heads as soon as they’re said! Sitting there, one among uncounted shadowy shapes, I felt as a foreign as a Southerner snug in a Catholic cathedral, having sensed an overwhelming silence you think you feel sometimes. It had dawned on me that, from the passage of death that previously came calling, time itself for this Ghost is not the same as time as experienced by us in living our lives on Earth. There is an extraordinary sequence involving his Ghost passing through ages, yet stuck still in the grand canvas of all that is and is to come. He has become our Virgil, our prophet. And I came to think that sometimes, movies can serve as a kind of tool for self-awareness, birthing from the ethereal a change of a heart once chained in a desperate stage of weariness to a kind of enduring happiness in an often heavy harshhardened existence. His Ghost may indeed be growing, although in a very different way than we do, but yet still he stood there -- and I, though fully seated, began to stand beside him.

Maybe we both realized our existence in spacetime sempt so speck-like, soundless, veiled, yet explainable and essential, but the awe-inspiring vastness of heaven has not canceled out for us the preciousness of teeny tiny waterdrop wonderful moments. A Ghost Story takes us to a place where we can sit in the glooms of a lovely light to observe, to listen, to begin to question, and perhaps decide to reform. What does it mean “to have died”? Who is the more wounded, the dearly departed or the ones they’ve left behind? Who might we haunt once we’ve journeyed along? What is the next stage after all? Who knows these things? This was a movie that considered death as much more than mere death, but a life after such an event, a continuance into an existence in which the great teachers are silence and mystery, where finding the answers is not the end-all. And then perhaps, even that afterlife has a death of sorts, a caterpillar setting itself up for its own metamorphosis, awakening from a centuries long slumber to find another world strange yet recognizable, like a gigantic ancient book, to be of little use if not traversed further into. Thus, his story passes into history. I for one will remember the name -- David Lowery -- a writer/director of deep stories that cultivate deep thinking. Fifty years from now he may be a director that many of us will return to and admire all over again. Especially in light of those final 20 or so incredible minutes of A Ghost Story when, at the risk of losing myself, my soul seemed to lose its stone covering at the casting of wonder onto it, swooning into some nether world as uncertain and striking as the depth of the ocean. I’d had some kind of encounter with Epiphany that achieved a massive moment of transcendence somewhere in the vision that requires more than eyesight or earhear to fully fathom. In my wonder my worries withered away, and I for one would like to sail there again someday…

Cyber Security

IBM's Cyber Security Perspective
As we move towards a Smarter Planet, one which is increasingly instrumented, interconnected and intelligent new threats and challenges from a security perspective arise. Increasingly systems and infrastructure we rely on every day are interconnected in this way. We are faced with many new threats which could damage this infrastructure, especially in terms of our critical
infrastructure. Cyber security attacks are increasing and just as with other topical areas such as cloud there is confusion and debate about what Cyber actually is, we will share IBM's thinking and perspective on Cyber Security and approaches organisations can take.

  • Agile Cloud Security Recorded: Jan 15 2018 61 mins
    Paul Oakes, CISSP, ISSAP, CCSP, CSM, CSPO, AWS PSA, Senior Enterprise Security Architect, TD Bank
    How does an established data center-centric organization with high trust and security needs move to the public cloud? How does a waterfall-model-oriented organization make such a move in a timely fashion so as to not be left behind by its competition? What does governance look like for such an organization's use of the public cloud? What can these organizations avoid doing wrong?

    These questions are answered by using the fundamentals of Agile methodologies: prioritization by highest value and risk; technical excellence; and continuous delivery of valuable products as seen through the lense of security principles. Those principles include least privilege, separation of duties, data protection, and visibility to examine and provide solutions for the trust, security and governance needs of cloud-new adopting organizations.
  • Cybersecurity Careers: It’s Not Just Hacking Recorded: Jan 15 2018 63 mins
    Deidre Diamond Founder and CEO CyberSN and brainbabe.org
    With more than 500,000 unfilled cybersecurity jobs, an industry made up of 10 percent women and a trend of 56 percent of women leaving tech inside 10 years, we have a big problem. The stereotype of a hoodie-clad man at a terminal in a dark room -- a myth our schools perpetuate -- is harmful. Those in cybersecurity can change this right now! Come discuss how to sell all the diverse cybersecurity jobs to women, so they will want to join us.
  • Cyber, Risk and Gender: Is There a White Male Effect in Cybersecurity? Recorded: Jan 4 2018 57 mins
    Stephen Cobb: CISSP, MSc, Senior Security Resesarcher ESET | Lysa Myers: Security Researcher III ESET
    Accurate assessment of risk is vital for effective cybersecurity, yet numerous studies show that perceptions of risk vary considerably, between demographic groups and along gender lines. Leveraging established research in areas like cultural theory of risk perception, plus original research by the authors, this session presents evidence of a “white male effect” leading to underestimation of technology risks. Could this account for the persistent insecurity of digital product design? Does it undermine efforts to protect information systems from criminal abuse? Given that most cybersecurity professionals are males who tend to see more risk in technology than their peers, the researchers explore the causes of white male effect, then suggest strategies for countering its influence, such as increasing diversity in technology companies and the cybersecurity workforce.
  • The Hot Potato – Who’s Responsible for Vulnerability Management in the Cloud? Recorded: Dec 19 2017 55 mins
    Michelle Cobb, CMO, Skybox; Joel Scambray, NCC Group; Derrick Butts, CIO, The Truth Initiative;Brandon Dunlap (Moderator)
    Organizations continue to rapidly move their workloads to the cloud as they benefit from the flexibility and agility this can provide. However, many security processes become increasingly difficult to manage in a Shared Responsibility model. Top among these is vulnerability management which is the key to visibility into virtual and multi-cloud networks. Join Skybox and (ISC)2 on December 19, 2017 at 1:00PM Eastern for our final ThinkTank of the year where we will discuss how to better prioritize and manage vulnerabilities and the best way to provide visibility (and thus, context) into the physical, virtual and multi-cloud environments all organizations find themselves dealing with now.

    Ananda Rajagopal, VP, Products, Gigamon, Dan Watson, Managing Consultant CyberSecurity, IBM, Glenn Hernandez, Frm USCG CISO
    Public clouds provided by services like AWS and Azure continue to surge in popularity with organizations small and large. However, the security of these services and how the responsibility for it is shared can be murky. Organizations want to assure that the public cloud is being used properly by everyone in the enterprise and to run mission-critical applications while meeting compliance and security controls. Join Gigamon and (ISC)2 on Thursday, December 14, 2017 at 1:00PM Eastern for a roundtable discussion on public clouds and the shared responsibility model and how that can help to secure and protect your organization.

    Seth Geftic, Dir Product Mgmt, Sophos; Dr. Paulo Shakarian, ASU; Rob Ayoub, IDC; Brandon Dunlap, Moderator
    Machine learning (aka Artificial Intelligence) can be found in the marketing literature of a number of new solutions and offerings in the marketplace. But what exactly is it? FUD? Magic Dust? The “Next Big Thing”? There’s a lot of confusion and a lot of questions around this topic. What’s the false positive detection rate? How often does it need to be updated? Does it scale well? Join Sophos and (ISC)2 to explore these questions and more on November 30, 2017 at 1:00PM Eastern in our next ThinkTank webcast.
  • Resiliency is More Than A Mood: Building a Safer Homeland - Juliette Kayyem Recorded: Nov 22 2017 40 mins
    Juliette Kayyem, Founder, Kayyem Solutions, LLC
    Much of cybersecurity work focuses on preventing attacks and protecting vulnerabilities in the system, commonly referred to "left of boom" policies. Those are important efforts and an integral part of a security managers portfolio. But what happens when the vulnerability is exposed, by a state actor or an individual, and the consequences must be managed. How do we -- as corporations, individuals and a nation -- better invest in response, recovery and resiliency efforts? In this keynote, Juliette Kayyem will offer five important steps to building a more resilient system and what we all need to do to "keep calm and carry on."

The former director of the National Cyber Investigative Joint Task Force (NCIJTF), Mr. Freese will share his insights into how nation-state adversaries are changing the security game and the critical role that threat intelligence now plays in defending everything from our national security infrastructure to your own personal data. Moderator Brandon Dunlap hosts this interactive session, during which you will learn firsthand how this experienced cybersecurity professional views our readiness to secure our critical infrastructure, the shifting intersection of cybersecurity and law enforcement, the increasing need for public/private information-sharing partnerships and the evolving nature of the threats we are all facing.
  • Exchanging Cyber Threat Intelligence: There has to be a better way Recorded: Nov 16 2017 62 mins
    Dr. Larry Ponemon, Founder, Ponemon Institute; Krupa Srivatsan, Infoblox; Tom Gorup, Rook Security; B. Dunlap (Moderator)
    Today’s increasingly complex and stealthy threats are causing organizations difficultly in defending against them on their own. More and more companies are using multiple threat intelligence sources and reaching out to their peers for threat intelligence data. In fact, 66% of respondents in the recent 2017 Ponemon survey, “The Third Annual Study on Exchanging Cyber Threat Intelligence: There Has to Be a Better Way”, report that threat intelligence could have prevented or minimized the consequences of a cyber attack or data breach. Join Infoblox and (ISC)2 on November 16, 2017 at 12:00pm (Noon) Eastern where our panel will discuss top trends that describe the current state of threat intelligence sharing, how threat intelligence sharing and usage has changed from previous years and best practices to using threat intelligence effectively to counter attacks.

We'll discuss use cases managed security companies are addressing and provide insight on how best of breed companies are adapting.
  • Reducing the Attack Surface via Internet Reconnaissance, Automation & Mitigation Recorded: Oct 26 2017 59 mins
    Benjamin Powell, Technical Marketing Manager; John Carnes, Anthem; Dustin Sachs, Navigant; Brandon Dunlap (Moderator)
    Business digital transformation has outpaced conventional cyber defenses. Adversaries no longer attack Firewalls or maneuver laterally between systems to wreak havoc on operations, customers and brands. External threats are the root cause for the majority of today’s incidents and breaches. A recent IDG survey revealed that 70% of enterprises have zero to modest confidence in the ability to reduce their digital attack surface. VA scanners, pen testing and systems tools all provide visibility and control of internal assets, but they fail on the vast number of dynamic web systems, web apps and other components connected to a business and are blind to subsidiaries, ecosystem, global and hosted sites, and service providers - all with possible susceptibility. How can SOC and GRC teams gain the active discovery and direct insight needed to respond to exposed external facing exposed assets - even those not under control of IT? Join RiskIQ and (ISC)2 on October 26, 2017 at 1:00PM Eastern as we explore how to leverage advanced internet reconnaissance, automation, and mitigation to address mounting digital attack surface gaps.
  • A NIST Guide on How Identity Management is Reshaping Cyber Security Recorded: Oct 12 2017 60 mins
    Bill Newhouse, Deputy Director, NICE; Naresh Persaud, Sr. Dir. Security; Prod Mktg, CA; Spencer Wilcox; Brandon Dunlap
    Did you know that 80% of data breaches implicate lost, stolen and weak credentials, as well as excessive access as culprits? NIST’s National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE) is helping companies better understand how to apply standards-based, commercially available technologies to improve their cybersecurity posture. The NCCoE’s security control mappings, reference designs, and lab implementations can be used as roadmaps or checklists for organizations looking to bolster their cybersecurity programs. Join CA and (ISC)2 on October 12, 2017 at 1:00PM Eastern for our ThinkTank where our expert panel will take an in depth look at how Identity Management is shaping the recommendations and requirements for the next generation of cyber security controls.
  • Shoring up Your Defenses by Leveraging Analytics and Machine Learning Recorded: Aug 24 2017 65 mins
    Mark McGovern, VP, Product Mgmt., CA; John Carnes, Infosecurity Senior Adviser, Anthem; Erik Von Geldern, FXCM
    Attackers are getting quicker and more sophisticated. Today's enterprise defenders aren’t able to withstand the pace and complexities of the threats they face. Automated tools and intelligence are being deployed to breach your IT infrastructure and access your priceless data by targeting privileged accounts. In playing defense, security teams must become proactive, not reactive and use data and analytics in a meaningful way, being more effective and agile in detecting attackers and quickly thwarting them. Join CA Technologies and (ISC)2 on August 24, 2017 at 1:00PM Eastern for a discussion on emergence of machine learning and security analytics as tools that organizations can leverage to defend their data and some practical ways it can be used to protect key assets such as privileged accounts.
  • Scaling Up Network Security: Shifting Control Back to the Defenders Recorded: Aug 10 2017 60 mins
    Shehzad Merchant, CTO, Gigamon; Mat Gangwer, CTO, Rook Security; Paulo Shakarian, ASU; Brandon Dunlap (Moderator)
    Network threats and data breaches continue to grow in number, sophistication and speed, overwhelming current defensive capabilities. Security teams, limited in staff, resources and time, suffer from diminished effectiveness and enterprise protection. To stay ahead, organizations must create an adaptive ecosystem of network defenses; much like the body leverages its immune system. A Defense Lifecycle Model speeds threat identification and mitigation by incorporating machine learning and artificial intelligence into these security processes. Join Gigamon and (ISC)2 on August 10, 2017 at 1:00PM Eastern for a discussion on automated prevention, detection, prediction and containment and how it can help to fortify your defense.

  • The Human Target – The Tip of Spear is Aimed at You Recorded: Jun 8 2017 58 mins
    Ira Winkler, Secure Mentem, Sylvester Gray, Sophos; Johnny Deutsch, E&Y; Brandon Dunlap, Moderator
    While Phishing schemes continue to bedevil organizations and security teams, cyber criminals have become more selective and refined about their targets and methods of trying to reel them in.

First ten LEGO Ninjago Movie collectible minifigures revealed [News]

This week we’ve seen a flurry of new sets from the upcoming LEGO Ninjago Movie, including the massive and eclectic Ninjago City, a gorgeous dragon ship, and many cool new mechs. To round out the theme, LEGO has announced a Ninjago Movie themed series of collectible minifigures and revealed half of them today. Here they are below, with our initial impressions. Tomorrow, LEGO will reveal the second half of this series (including the pink haired girl from the packaging and a standard issue Lloyd in ninja garb). But from just the ten that we have seen, it appears that the series will be another highly sought-after collection for both fun and parts. So stay tuned for even more LEGO Ninjago Movie news coming this week!

Lloyd Garmadon

It looks like we are in for a beautiful oriental bowl set with new utensils, as well as a new molded head with hoodie. From the scrunched up packaging, it appears that the series will also include a ninja version of La-Lloyd too.

Volcano Garmadon

These volcano PJs are adorable and the upper shorter torso could be used for a cute kids sleeping set. But what stole out attention is the beautiful bowl rounding out the new dish set.

Master Wu

Master Wu appears to be similar to other sets already released, but in accordance to the running chicken and cereal bowl joke, we get a hefty box of corn flakes (half the size of the figure!) that should make him very easy to feel for.

Jay Walker

In addition to more of the ninja-fied minifigures, this series will also appeal to LEGO City builders with many new torso and leg prints. The standout with Jay is that incredible new scarf piece (which had been sorely needed in the Winter Village line) as well as a smartphone tile printed with a smiling selfie.

Lloyd’s mom Misako has previously been depicted as being older, so we can only assume that this might be a flashback version when she meets and falls in love with Garmadon. Either that or she is also suffering from the Spiderman Aunt May phenomenon of getting younger with every movie. That said, we welcome the new hair piece with chopsticks and a very loving “KOKO” name badge print.

Sushi Chef

Sushi fans rejoice! It appears that the figure will include a whole roll of sushi tiles, as well as more cutlery and a new minifig bald cap with bandana.

Shark Army General #1

In a break from previous series, we get a Shark Army General with new hair piece who isn’t wearing the large angled dress piece. Much more convenient to fight in and sip a colorful bubble tea (with metallic printed dome!).

Spinjitzu Training Nya

Nya is pretty standard issue with white training outfit (reminiscent of the white and gold outfits of the end of the LEGO Batman Movie) and wooden swords. From the packaging, it appears the swords may be printed with some training damage, though that detail isn’t apparent from the picture of the minifugre.

Gong & Guitar Rocker

With his hippie hair, skull and crossbones torso and new guitar reminiscent of Glam Rocker Batman, this rocker is ready to shred some tunes–and his pants!

Shark Army Great White

Though great white sharks are–well, white–this shark army trooper sports a black shark helmet and new black fish piece. However it looks like his battery is about to die on this helmet, so who knows how that will affect him.

5 comments on “First ten LEGO Ninjago Movie collectible minifigures revealed [News]

  1. Jacob Mohler

    Not to be overly critical, but I think you need to look a little closer at the pictures. Garmadon’s body is the same as his old, meaning it can’t be connected to minifig legs. Misako’s tag says “KOKO”, the dome of the cup is clear, and the swords have no printing, the spot is just moulding. No offense, I just noticed many incorrect details.

  2. The Anonymous Hutt

    Just pointing out, Misako’s name tag actually says “Koko” not “Xoxo”. The Sushi Chef also comes with two tiles only. The other part of the roll is a 1×1 round brick.

  3. Piperiodix

    I am usually not a fan of the Ninjago series but these minifigures and the Ninjago movie sets (in particular the modular building and the ship) look great !

  4. The Anonymous Hutt

    It is hard to tell on the cup, give them a break. I noticed this, but it still looks half metallic half transparent to me. We need to see another picture to be sure.

Being Pushed out the door.

Discussion in 'UPS Union Issues' started by Andy Watmore, Dec 31, 2014.

    Andy Watmore New Member

    First of all i have been working for ups for about 7 months on the evening shift, then decided i wanted to work the morning shift because it would be better for my personal life as i have two daughters to look after aswell as a type one diabetic partner. I did a week of the split shift which didnt go well as the sleeping patterns so messed up one day, but the rest of the week was alright. was then told i was wanted on the shift. But couldnt do another week due to my daughters being ill. I was then told that i could transfer over on the monday which was great news. the come tuesday morning i slept past my alarm and rung them straight away. was then told i have lost my chances of that shift and got the sack... I now have a hearing on the 5th and no idea what to do or say at the meeting. And i havent signed up to the union... Please help... I feel like they have pushed my down so bad...

    Grievance hearing or panel? You missed one day, and they want to fired you? Doesn't sound right to me. Fortunate for you, unfortunate for those who paid for that, you should have representation for that hearing. Go in, tell your side, and if you truly only missed the one day, you should be fine and resume working, because they didn't go through he proper discipline process.

    And when you get your job back, join the union.

    You don't get canned for over sleeping and calling in late one day. There is more to this story I suspect it is that you have a history of not showing up to work, calling late or just showing up late.

    Someone from the union will be there to help you try to get your job back it that law. However how much effort they put into it could be less that someone that was paying union dues even though the law says it can't.

    If you do get you job back join the UNION you apparently are going to need more representation in the future and you most likely will get better representation by being a paying union member.

    Never too late to sign up. Seen more then one person decide to join the Union when there was a discipline issue or a job seniority issue.

Personalised Baby Gifts For Newborns & Babies

There is no present quite as special as the small bundle of joy that enters your life following nine months of carrying, planning and excitement. At Bundles of Joy, we specialise in personalising newborn baby gifts and personalised baby gifts for both boys and girls, therefore if you know someone who is about to or has just given birth, you’ve come to the right place.

The Joy Of Giving Newborn Personalised Baby Gifts

Giving is one of the greatest joys in life, but there are few feelings as special as being able to congratulate new parents with a baby gift that says ‘welcome’ to the new person in their life. Better still, a personalised gift like a personalised blanket, comforter or toy box turns the first present into a treasured keepsake that will last for decades and act as a memory for a very special time in one’s life.

Baby Gifts

Why Give Newborn Baby Gifts?

The tradition of giving new parents gifts to welcome new babies into the family goes back decades and is the ideal way for anyone, whether they be close family or long-distance friends to send their love and wish the new arrival the very best for the future.
A newborn baby gift is something that will be treasured for a long time and, as the child grows, become a unique memory of the time they were welcomed into the world by those closest to them.

The Benefits Of Personalised Baby Gifts

At Bundles of Joy, we stock a range of unique and unusual personalised baby gifts, but we think there’s nothing more special than adding the personal touch to a present which is intended to welcome a new baby boy or girl into the big, wide world.

This is why we offer a huge array of personalised baby gifts UK well-wishers can choose from that include blankets, towels, clothing, baby hampers, toy boxes, money boxes, and baby shower gifts. Avoid the embarrassment of inadvertently sending the same baby gift as someone else by personalising a baby present that will become a treasured keepsake.
Browse our range of beautiful newborn personalised baby presents above.

Why Choose Bundles Of Joy For Your Personalised Baby Gifts?

At Bundles of Joy, we personalise your baby gifts in-house using a variety of methods (see below). Our self-taught team can add personalisation to 90% of our gifts and because we know how special that first present is, we take great care with every item we’re tasked with making it unique.

How We Create Personalised Baby Gifts

One of the greatest challenges when choosing a gift for a new baby is finding something unusual that hasn’t appeared amongst the presents of countless other newborns. Just as with other forms of present giving, the last thing anyone wants is to inadvertently give a present that is identical to something already gifted by another well-wisher. This is why the in-house team at Bundles of Joy can personalise 90% of the gifts we stock. That means you can pick from virtually our entire catalogue and create your own, unique baby gift that no one else will have thought of and have it delivered either to yourself or directly to the recipient if you cannot see them in person, beautifully gift wrapped. We have hi-tech embroidery machines that can add any baby name (however unusual) on comforters, blankets and clothing in a variety of beautiful, soft colours, ideal for baby gifts.

Types Of Personalised Newborn Baby Gifts

The Bundles of Joy team can add handwriting, computer-generated vinyl transfers, hand painting and embroidery to almost the entire product catalogue. All of our handwritten products such as photo frames and money boxes are colour-matched accordingly with permanent pens. This is where the benefit of countless hours of practice makes its presence felt because great skill is required to centre such personalisation (even if, on first glance, it may look easy!). If you’re looking for a more traditional new baby present, our wooden toy chests and chairs are skilfully hand-painted by our in-house artists using child-friendly acrylic paints.

The Vinyl Craft Machine For Personalising Baby Gifts

As much as we love the intimacy of hand-crafting our personalised baby gifts, the team sometimes needs a little help from something more mechanic, and that’s when we call on the Vinyl Craft Machine. If you choose one of our:

  • Personalised door plaques
  • Personalised wooden trugs
  • Personalised baby clocks
  • Persoanlised baby treasure boxes

the child’s name is cut out of a high-quality transfer, (with the same durability as the vinyl used on cars) available in a variety of colours, by the Vinyl Machine, enabling the Bundles of Joy team to hand finish the personalisation later on. We know what’s important with newborn gifting.

Our extensive range of online baby gifts and personalised baby presents provide our customers with the two things that matter most when choosing a present for a newborn baby: unbeatable price and lasting quality. No one wants to provide a run of the mill baby gift that has been seen countless times before when welcoming a new baby into the world, which is why our focus on personalised baby gifts results in presents that are stylish and unique and that will remain as cherished keepsakes for many years to come.

Beautiful, unique baby gifts for girls and boys
Choose from our range of gifts for babies, all created to make the perfect newborn baby gift for both boys and girls.
  • Blankets
  • Towels
  • Clothing
  • Baby hampers
  • Toy boxes
  • Money boxes

We also have a wide range of luxury, beautiful gifts for baby boys and girls that include precious presents made from silver or pewter.
Need Your Personalised New Baby Gift Fast?

At Bundles of Joy, we offer free gift wrapping, a speedy turnaround for personalised gifts and a super-fast delivery service from the UK to anywhere in the world.
Your beautiful baby gift will, therefore, be received quickly, and a gift treasured forever.

Mistakes can undermine marketing

Social media columnist
Social media columnist
Have your say

Social media marketing is an excellent way to increase your following and make more money.

I don’t usually like to focus on the negatives, however, there are many common mistakes that people make when engaging in social media marketing.

If you are making any of these mistakes, don’t worry; it’s never too late to correct them and make your social media marketing better.

When your followers make a comment on something, share or ask a question, don’t wait too long to respond.

If you have someone monitoring your social media, have them inform you of ongoing conversations and potential areas of engagement.

Incomplete profiles make your business look either sloppy, or fake.

If you want to be taken seriously, fill out a complete profile with a good profile picture, your company logo/banner and information so that you can be contacted outside of the network.

With so many different social media channels, it’s easy to miss one.

Your phone number might have changed or email address or you’ve moved office – all these need to be reviewed and updated regularly.

Some people make the mistake of focusing on the quantity of followers, rather than the quality.

You want to concern yourself with finding followers who are potential customers.

If you aren’t active on social media, or you don’t post things that resonate with your audience, then you’re not going to get any traction.

If you plan to be successful with social media marketing, it takes perseverance and patience, not one-hit wonders.

You don’t need to be on every single social media channel.

Being on the channels that your audience loves is by far the best strategy and one that will save you time and allow you to focus.

There are a lot of things, such as scheduled updates, that you can automate on social media.

Be sure to use scheduling when possible as long as it doesn’t make you look robotic.

Every chance you get, it’s important to make spur-of-the-moment updates that are relevant to your business and your goals.

This will make you look more real in the eyes of your followers.

Sending out a mass message, using software, to all of your social media networks that you’ve connected with can be a mistake.

It’s a balance between the leads who are on more than one account and those who only ever use one account.

If you do this, a few of your followers who are on every channel may feel bored or, worse, spammed, but it is a risk you may need to take.

Using social media to market your business is a proven technique to get more customers, make more sales, and increase your bottom line, but only if you avoid these mistakes.

Take one at a time and make the improvements needed to get on the right track so that you make your social media marketing profitable for your business.

Twitter announced recently that it will shut down its business app, Twitter Dashboard, from the start of February.

Twitter stated in a tweet that it “hopes to bring the best features from Dashboard to the broader Twitter community” in the future.

Meanwhile, Engadget reports that Twitter is thinking about adding the ability to edit tweets once they have been sent.

Upon asking users what improvements they would most like to see in 2017, the company founder shared that an edit button was the platform’s “most requested feature”.

The company is said to be actively considering the best way to develop and implement the tool, which could be released later this year.

Pop along to Martlesham for a day of Melodeons and More

Saul Rose
Saul Rose
Have your say

On Saturday, March 25, the community centre in Mendlesham, near Stowmarket, will resound to the sound of squeezeboxes on the 18th Melodeons and More day organised by the East Anglian Traditional Music Trust.

From 10.30am to 5pm there is a range of classes for people to learn to play the melodeon and concertina, from absolute beginners up to master classes. Hire instruments are available for complete beginners. Places must be booked in advance.

Full details and a booking form are at www.eatmt.org.uk or by calling 01449 771090.

From 8pm to 11pm some of the country’s best performers, including Sandra Kerr, Saul Rose and Nick Cooke, will play in the popular Squeezebox Special concert. Concert tickets are available separately and are already selling well, so book in advance to avoid disappointment.

Sandra Kerr is most famously known for writing and performing the music for Bagpuss, but also a wonderful singer and a virtuoso on the concertina. She will be performing traditional tunes from the north east and even some Scottish ragtime numbers.

Saul Rose is a busy musician, he’s one of the few melodeon players to have taken the part of the Song Man in the West End production of the world famous show War Horse, and tours regularly with Eliza Carthy’s Wayward Band and Faustus as well as playing in several ceilidh bands.

Nick Cooke is the accompanist of choice for many big names including Kate Rusby and Jim Moray. It’s his first visit to the Mendlesham event and a rare chance to hear this consummate musician in his own right.

Also performing will be The Four Stops, a group put together especially to celebrate the local old style of melodeon playing, with four of the best exponents of the one-row tradition, Steve Dumpleton, Rees Wesson, Jeannie Harris and Katie Howson.

Katie is currently Director of the East Anglian Traditional Music Trust, leads the local ceilidh band The Valiant Dance Band and plays with PolkaWorks and as a solo performer.

During the day there is also a free Music Market (open 10.45am-4pm) with stalls offering a variety of traditional musical instruments (new and vintage) as well as folk music CDs, books, t-shirts etc.

Full details are on the EATMT website at www.eatmt.org.uk or telephone 01449 771090 for further details.

"Barnsley District General - Hindfoot Fusion"

About: Barnsley Hospital / Trauma and orthopaedics

(as the patient),

I had been treated for a frozen shoulder by my doctor just weeks before my operation for a hindfoot fusion and I was asked to try use crutches the day after my op: the result was severe pain in my shoulder again. I have tried to use the Zimmer frame but the pain was too severe. I think it was too soon after the op to be hoping around as I also have angina.

However I was always treated with kindness on ward 33.

If I have water in my oil is that a blown head gasket?

Asked by Dec 03, 2013 at 10:25 AM about the 1996 Chevrolet Lumina 4 Dr STD Sedan

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Car kept over heating, checked my oil and water was in it, went to do a oil change and when I let the oil out water also came out with it..is this a blown head gasket? and if so what do I need to do?

12 Answers

everyone assumes a head gasket, it just sounds nice, no doubt warped heads, cracked heads, burnt piston ect, if you like the car ,shop for an engine replacement

7 of 7 people found this helpful.

so I need a new engine.. could I but copper sealant in it? somebody told me to use Blue Devil and someone else told me to try the copper kind...could either of them work?

14 of 14 people found this helpful.

Could also be a blown lower intake manifold gasket, if you have coolant in the oil and have driven like this for a while chances are the main and rod bearings are on the way out already. You could take the chance and investigate, have seen dozens blow the intake gaskets and do the same thing you describe. You have a 50/50 shot of saving the engine at this point. You have the 3.1L right?

Im not sure I have a v6 4 door car...All I can do is try at this point I guess ;/ ....im going add the sealant do a change the oil, change my thermostat and change the oil filter..

1 of 1 people found this helpful.

be very careful if you start to hear the engine get noisy pull over, don't want to scare you but if as you described is true make sure you have a phone and if you are in cold climate make sure you have a warm jacket and gloves. I was a Chrysler technician for 12 years, did many of these gaskets and around 30 percent of the crank bearings and rod bearings would fail because they were exposed to antifreeze to long and already wore the bearings to the point of failure. If this happens the engine will lock up.

okay, I'm not sure if the coolant got into anything or not, I just know it looks like water in the oil, and smokes really bad, and recently my battery kept dyeing for a reason I don't know, and its like when the car start running hot the harder it is to start then my battery gets weak and dies.

I'm not sure I know I see ALOT of smoke coming from under my hood, and I think it is coming from my tail pipe also, but i'm not sure about the smell..

The car has a 3.1 liter v6 and well known for blowing head gaskets....and yes the others are right it's simpler and cheaper to replace the engine ....blue devil is a waste of money that you can use towards a better engine

2006 Chevrolet Silverado 2500hd. coolant mix with oil, still run great no smoking, but every 2 days I have to add some coolant. somebody already told me its head gasket. so what is the best way to fix that problem

Police reveal details about beating death of U.S. tourist in Greece

Last Updated Jul 10, 2017 4:03 PM EDT

A friend of the 22-year-old American man killed last week in Greece is providing new details about the violent attack at a bar.

Bakari Henderson was killed after a fight broke out early Friday on the Greek island of Zakynthos. According to a friend who was with Henderson at the time, it started after Henderson and some friends set down their drinks at the other end of a table where two men were sitting. He says the two men grabbed the beers, smashed them on the table, and brandished the shattered bottles as weapons.

The friend says local media reports that the attack was sparked by an attempt to take a photo with a waitress are untrue.

Police say at least 10 people followed Henderson out of the bar, including the bouncer and another employee. They are accused of beating Henderson and leaving him unconscious in the street.

Eight people have been arrested and are now facing voluntary manslaughter charges. The suspects, including the bouncer and bar employee, covered their heads as they made their way into court.

One of their attorneys argued there was no intent to kill Henderson, who Greek police say died from severe head injuries after the beating.

"I couldn't believe it," said Astrid Von Ehren-McCray, a family friend. "And I'm trying to compose myself, but I couldn't believe it."

The news is still sinking in at the McCray household in Austin, Texas. Family friends say Henderson spent a lot of time there growing up.

"I think everybody feels the same way," Blake McCray said. "That everybody just misses Bakari. He was the life of the party."

Henderson graduated last month from the University of Arizona with a degree in business finance and entrepreneurship.

In a statement, relatives said: "Our family is devastated." They said Henderson "was a big thinker and enjoyed coming up with new business ventures."

His latest, a photo shoot for a new clothing line, brought him to the Greek island of Zakynthos.

The nightlife in an area of the island known as Laganas attracts a rowdier crowd, according to author and travel writer Eleni Gage.

"They get a lot of charter flights from England and other parts of Europe that can make for a very cheap vacation for primarily young people looking to party," Gage said.

There's been reports of trouble there before. In 2011, an argument with taxi drivers led to the stabbing death of a British teen. And last year, a young woman from Britain said a spiked vodka drink left her blind.

Yet this latest case makes no sense to those who knew Bakari Henderson, like neighbor Bill Norton.

"He was, he didn't have any of those characteristics that you would think about in terms of bar-room brawls," Norton said. "You know, it just didn't fit Bakari's nature. So I'm just puzzled."

The Henderson family says their main focus now is getting Bakari's body back home. The U.S. State Department says it's helping the family and is in touch with Greek authorities. Meanwhile, a GoFundMe page has raised more than $30,000 to cover transportation and funeral costs.

Editor's note: A previous version of this article said witnesses reportedly told police that Henderson and his friends wanted to take a photo with a waitress, which angered the bouncer. A friend of Henderson says local media reports that the attack was sparked by an attempt to take a photo with a waitress are untrue.

Diesel Revisits '80s Miami Fashion

Italian-denim brand Diesel isn't afraid of using bright colors or revisiting the '80s, an era that left some of us traumatized by fashion no-nos and feathered hair.

Instead, Diesel boldly revisited the steamy scene of Miami in the 1980s to set the mood for its new spring collection, presented Saturday at New York Fashion Week.

Hot pink? Check. Neon yellow? Check. Graffiti print? Check.

But there was nothing seedy about these clothes. The kitschy theme of the show was actually laundry detergent.

Photos: Fashion Rocks 2007

That might explain all the white: white jeans, white shirts, white jackets. The neon was the exclamation point to all the skinny jeans and slim skirts with gathered paper-bag waistbands.

2On the softer side, there also were a series of light, flowing white tunic tops and dresses made of a sheer, gauzy fabric.

Jumpsuits are poised for a resurgence next year, with many designers showing them on the runway -- including Diesel's Renzo Rosso. One was in the spirit of what Norma Kamali did 25 years ago with a soft sweatsuit-type fabric, while another had oversized pockets.

The big pockets turned up elsewhere at Diesel, including a nice yellow raincoat, but not even those enormous pockets were big enough for the giant butcher-block bangle bracelets the models were wearing.

Make the Most of Your Payroll Tax Holiday

Last Updated Jan 3, 2011 6:21 PM EST

This year employees get to pocket more of their salary, thanks to the payroll tax holiday -- part of the tax deal signed in December -- which will reduce workers' social security taxes this year from 6.2% to 4.2 %.

Let's say you earn $75,000 a year. That means you can expect to receive $1,500 back this year. What to do? While the government would like us to spend this money on iPads, vacations and dinners out to boost the economy, I've got some other ideas on how to make this 2% go further and improve your personal finances. (Fellow MoneyWatch blogger Carla Fried offers some great patriotic solutions, too.)

1. Chip Away Your Student Loan Principal.

Young adults struggling with their student loans can easily reduce their monthly payments and minimize interest payments by putting a little extra toward the principal of the loan. Let's say your debt load totals $20,000 with an interest rate of 7%. Spread over 10 years, you're looking at a monthly payment of $232, according to Sallie Mae's college loan repayment calculator. If you bring down that principal to $18,500 and continue to pay the minimum $232 a month in payments, you'll save $1,400 in interest over the life of the loan. (See more of my tips on reducing student loan debt.)

2. Increase Monthly Payments Towards Credit Card Debt.

If you're stuck only making minimum payments on your credit card, consider this tax holiday your personal debt-onator. Each month, based again on hypothetical earnings of $75,000 a year, you can expect an extra $125 back in your monthly paycheck. Imagine how fast that could help shrink your credit card debt. Let's do some math: Say you owe $5,000 on your Visa. The interest rate is 15%, the national average, making the monthly minimum $112.50 (equal to interest plus 1% of your balance). But if you tacked on an extra $125 to that minimum and made fixed payments of $237.50 each month, by the end of the year you'd have chopped $2,250 off that balance -- four times more than had you just paid the minimum $112.50 a month.

3. Invest in Yourself.

With $1,500 you can take big steps toward self-development and maybe even getting a leg up in the job market. From hiring a freelance techie to design you a personal blog to taking a course at a local community college and joining a networking club, there are many ways to turn this tax holiday into a gift that keeps on giving. And as we've learned, one of the keys to happiness is spending money on experiences, as opposed to things.

Picasso painting, Giacometti sculpture could break auction records

Employees of Christie's auction house stand by the Picasso painting titled "Les Femmes d'Algers" in Hong Kong on April 1, 2015. The painting was shown ahead of its May 11, 2015 sale in to be held in New York which could see it fetch the world record for any work of art ever sold at auction.

NEW YORK -- With collectors' appetite for masterpieces of impressionist, modern and contemporary art seemingly unbounded, two works are poised to challenge world auction records on Monday.

Picasso's "Women of Algiers (Version O)," a vibrant, multi-hued painting featuring a scantily attired female amid smaller nudes, could sell for more than $140 million, becoming the most expensive work of art at auction, according to Christie's. The evening sale also features Alberto Giacometti's life-size sculpture "Pointing Man" for an estimated $130 million. That could earn it the title of most expensive sculpture sold at auction.

Experts say the once unthinkable prices are driven by artworks' investment value and by wealthy new and established collectors seeking out the very best works.

"I don't really see an end to it, unless interest rates drop sharply, which I don't see happening in the near future," Manhattan dealer Richard Feigen said.

Impressionist and modern artworks continue to corner the market because "they are beautiful, accessible and a proven value. ... Prices for works from these periods only seen to go up each auction cycle and the reputations of the artists become further enshrined ... Today the works epitomize the conservative, moneyed establishment." added Sarah Lichtman, professor of design history and curatorial studies at The New School.

"I think we will continue to see the financiers seeking these works out as they would a blue chip company that pays reliable dividends for years to come."

The Picasso and Giacometti are among two dozen blue chip pieces from the 20th century that Christie's is offering in a curated sale titled "Looking Forward to the Past."

"Women of Algiers," once owned by the American collectors Victor and Sally Ganz, was inspired by Picasso's fascination with the 19th-century French artist Eugene Delacroix. It is part of a 15-work series Picasso created in 1954-1955 designated with the letters A through O. It has appeared in several major museum retrospectives of the artist.

The most expensive art work sold at auction currently is held by Francis Bacon's "Three Studies of Lucian Freud," which Christie's sold for $142.4 million in 2013.

"Pointing Man," depicting a skinny 5-foot-high bronze figure with extended arms, has been in the same private collection for 45 years. Giacometti, who died in 1966, made six casts of the work; four are in museums, the others are in private hands and a foundation collection. His "Walking Man I" holds the auction record for a sculpture. It sold in 2010 for $104.3 million.

Among other highlights at Christie's is Peter Doig's "Swamped," a 1990 painting of a solitary canoe in a moonlit lagoon that could set a record for the British artist. It is estimated to fetch around $20 million. The current record is $18 million.

Monet's "The Houses of Parliament, At Sunset," a lush painting of rich blues and magenta created in 1900-1901, is estimated to bring $35 million to $45 million. The current Monet auction record is his 1919 "Water Lily Pond," which sold for $80.5 million in 2008.

Christie's also has a Rothko for sale. "No. 36 (Black Stripe)," which has never appeared at auction, is estimated to sell for $30 million to $50 million. The 1958 work is being sold by the German collector Frieder Burda, who exhibited it in his museum in Baden-Baden for several years.

Last year, Christie said its global sales of impressionist and modern art was $1.2 billion, an increase of 19 percent over the previous year.

In November, CBS MoneyWatch reported that a recent Sotheby's auction earned $422.1 million in sales, the highest total in the 248-year-old auction house's history. Longtime rival Christie's sold $165.6 million worth of Impressionist and modern art during another recent auction.

"The strength of the stock market has some effect on the art market as it does every market," according to a Christie's statement provided to CBS MoneyWatch in November. "However, to a larger degree, the confidence we are seeing in art investment is due to the consistently strong auction results we are seeing season after season, and a growing interest in owning important objects and works of art."

A Little Bit About Yourself

-What are a few things you enjoy most about playing EQ? (For example: raiding, grouping, soloing, tradeskilling, exploring, questing, etc): raiding is my first joy but that's not all there is to EQ!! grouping is key because that's how you meet friends, build teamwork and have fun, i also like to solo from time to time just to test my mettle and hone my skills (let's face it, necros are soloing machines!!), exploring is fun (even after playing EQ for over a decade there are zones that i've never even heard of, much less been to), questing is not only fun but it's needed for progression and you can get some neat rewards nowadays...easily ties in with grouping because a group can accomplish quests way easier and in shorter time than trying to do it all solo. Tradeskills: err, even after over a decade i am way behind on them, i would rather be out in the bush dotting stuff. i need motivation to finish off tradeskills!!

-Tell us some of your short and long term goals for your character. (For example: quests, epic, tradeskills, leveling, AA ability, etc) short term: being as i am max lvl, have my 2.5, and have 13k aa's, my goal is to refamiliarize myself with my class and kick off the rust. Long term: to stay up to date and not get too comfortable with how i do things. class abilities are constantly evolving with each patch and expansion and there is always an opportunity to learn more about your chosen class.

-When do you normally play EQ? What is your time zone? whenever RL doesn't rear its ugly head...mostly days off and evenings. my work schedule is always changing so i play when i can. i'm a Central Time dude.

-CN generally raids Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays at 8 pm Eastern Time. Raiding is not required, but we would like to know what % of raids you think you will attend. (must met all requirements to raid so only answer this question if you met them all) hopefully over 50% whenever i am not working i will be raiding!! but it all comes down to whether i have to work that night or not :(

-Please tell us which other guilds you have been a member of and why you chose to leave. up until recently: Halo Guardians. why did i chose to leave? alot of my EQ friends that i knew in HG have come over to Celestial Navigators. I also remember CN from the alliance with Halo Guardians and remember how friendly and professional CN is!! i am not knocking Halo Guardians when i type this next part...but there is really nothing going on in HG since i've come back and most of my EQ friends are here, it was logical to come here and apply.

-If you are still a member in another guild, please explain:

Your Experience with CN

-Which members of CN do you know? Have you had a chance to raid or group with us? Littlabit, Ommina, Izzumn, Jaia, Mumbel, Hortonn, Moonshadow, Lilball, Cavman...to name a few. I have had a chance to raid with CN during the alliance with Halo Guardians.

-Why are you applying to CN? Is there a specific reason you chose to apply to our guild? Celestial Navigators is filled with great and friendly people....and most of my EQ friends are in CN.

-Tell us what your goals are for applying. What do you hope to get out of the guild? CN has always been very friendly to me over the years and i like friendly people!! my goals are simple: to have fun with friendly people and kick some serious ass!! in that order. as far as what i hope to get out of the guild...to have fun and to help with group and raid progression, and to give something back, not just take.

-Have you read the CN Rules, Policies and Looting (CNP) outlines and understand them? yes, and will abide by them at all times

Optional Info

-What do you do in real life? assistant mgr. at my local McDonalds.

-Where are you from? Two Harbors, MN

-What is your favourite colour? (with Canadian spelling) i enjoy all colors equally :)
