Supplements are certainly no match for the nutrition of whole foods in meals built with lean protein, fruits, and vegetables, but they can be vital to your health when there is a deficiency due to lifestyle, health conditions, and the modern western diet.

The word "icon" has a number of different meanings today, from the symbols on your computer screen to celebrities, and, of course, visual representations of religious figures. Soasig Chamaillard repairs old statues of the Virgin Mary and in the process turns them into something distinctly different than their original appearance. Her mission isn't to mock Mary or the meaning she holds for many people, but rather to examine notions of the feminine and the role of women in society and culture. As some one who's sitting in front of a bunch of action figures that, to me, represent important figures, the juxtaposition of pop culture with culture culture, is something I always find fascinating.

"Eileen in Green" Think I have finally sorted out the mystery of this painting, after another query. The painting, called "The First Irish Pilot" is of Lavery's daughter Eileen who was married to the Master of Sempill, he a pilot she often his enthusiastic passenger (see "Sir John Lavery" by Kenneth McConkey, page 162). Another painting "'The First Flight to Dublin" also dates from this period (1926); the Irish Free State had bought five planes from the British and one of these was flown to Dublin by the Sempills. Sir John made a quick sketch of the five planes in England before they took off. The Lavery portrait of Lady Mary shows her in her ambulance driver's uniform standing beside a car. It was painted by Lavery when he was on war artist duties in France and remains in the house of a distant relative in Co Limerick. * Here is a painting by Sir John Lavery of a much younger Eileen. It's called "Eileen in Green". From the Hugh Lane Art Gallery Website: John Lavery An Irish Pilot This wonderful painting by one of Ireland’s best loved portrait painters John Lavery features the fascinating Lady Heath, born Sophie Pierce Evans in Limerick. For a five-year period from the mid-1920s, pilot Lady Mary Heath was one of the best-known women in the world. It was an era when everyone had gone aviation mad, she was the first woman to parachute and the first woman to gain a commercial pilot’s licence. In 1928 Lady Heath made front-page news worldwide as the first pilot ever, male or female, to fly a small, open cockpit plane solo from Cape Town to London. Back home in Ireland in the 1930s, she was reputed to have landed her plane on every flat field in the country. This fine portrait is in good condition, but its valuable, ornate frame is suffering from extensive flaking of the gilding. This requires urgent attention from a gilding conservator before it can be displayed. Intriguingly, the portrait appears to have been painted over a different composition and we hope to investigate this fascinating possibility by x-raying the painting. Conservation costs €3000
