Getting away with it
Just as some "vegetarians" occasionally succumb to a bacon sandwich, so the term "drama-documentary" in television is subject to personal interpretation. The phrase has covered everything from actors performing scripts in which the dialogue is historically proven to plays loosely based on news stories in which all of the names of the participants have been changed.
Channel 4's Born With Two Mothers would lead to further definition problems for any Dr Johnson of television. As the title hints, this 90-minute drama explores one of the ways in which medical science has now made possible scenarios once restricted to science fiction. Born With Two Mothers can be seen as a catchpenny title - an attempt to grab attention in multichannel listings - but, in the circumstances of the plotline, it's restrained. When networks start to get really desperate for audiences, this kind of thing will be called: I'm White So Why Is My Baby Black?
The Bridges, an African-Caribbean British couple, are undergoing IVF treatment when one of their fertilised eggs is accidentally injected into the womb of Mrs Mayfield, a white patient. This isn't a what-if but a what-did. There was an actual widely reported case of this kind so the play has a documentary basis, although it is not a classic drama-doc because the characters are amalgams who carry invented names. The script isn't an adaptation of one case study.
But the status of the play is even more complicated. Though the four main characters are further from fact than in most pieces of journalistically inspired fiction, the rest of the cast are, unusually, documentary. The actors playing the parents consult with actual doctors, barristers and judges in scenes in which the professionals are improvising their responses.
These two layers of reality are then further doubled: a gruff, factual voiceover announces the dates and places of various key scenes, but the mothers also have fictional voiceovers describing their behaviour. There are times when you feel that Ofcom may have to bring in a televisual equivalent of DNA-testing in order to settle disputes over how real a piece of TV is.
The problem with this approach is that the drama seems frequently to be switching between guesswork and expertise. Sequences when a dramatist is imagining what it might be like to discover that your child had just spent nine months in another woman's womb give way to verbatim statements of hospital policy from a consultant playing himself: "There's a problem. Because of the legal situation, I can't tell you what the precise problem is."
The racial aspect of the case is sensitively handled. There are slightly queasy scenes in which it seems to be suggested that the real problem is that the baby is black but realistically the colour would become an issue for anyone except a total liberal saint: even if racist feelings could be avoided, there's the gossip and embarrassment resulting from the visibility of the mistake. And the hidden kick of the film is the implication that, if the child had been white, the clinic might have been able to suppress the error.
But, though its subject-matter and structure mean that it invites judgement as a documentary, Born With Two Mothers is most remarkable for the quality of dramatic talent it commands.
It's lucky timing that Sophie Okonedo, who plays Lucretia Bridges, should have been up for an Oscar so close to transmission, but it was smart to have cast her before Hotel Rwanda had made her talent for projecting emotion well known. Lesley Sharp, who plays her white rival for the child, is also one of the most intelligently empathetic actresses on television, and Lennie James and Adam Kotz, who have the harder task of portraying the frequently unsympathetic husbands, match them in power. All four pitch their acting naturalistically enough that there is no sense of the thespian equivalent of pro-am golf in the scenes with the real-life professionals.
The scriptwriter, Zinnie Harris, though making her television debut, has already been acclaimed in theatre for Further Than the Furthest Thing. Though it's hard to judge her writing here because so much is improvised, there are some sharp exchanges of dialogue, especially in the different reactions of the Mayfields to their black child. "This is our worst nightmare come true," says James. "Don't you want to hold him?" Laura asks.
That's a smart reflection of the psychological difference between fathering a child and mothering one, but you naggingly want to know if it's what a real man and woman in these circumstances said. A drama about divided parentage itself keeps being tugged between two homes: never quite belonging to documentary or drama.
· Born With Two Mothers, Thursday, 9pm, Channel 4
A child of our time
The publicity for Hell's Kitchen, the second series of the celebrity restaurant show, has concentrated on the replacement of Gordon Ramsay as the chief pan-rattler by the culinary duo of Gary Rhodes and Jean-Christophe Novelli. But the really interesting story of Hell's Kitchen is the only permanent kitchen fixture between the two series: presenter Angus Deayton. His second shift at the restaurant - and the recent ITV1 drama Heartless, in which he starred - confirm that Deayton has achieved the most successful recovery from scandal in the history of television.
While bad boys of the 60s - such as Simon Dee - disappeared from the screens and John Leslie - Deayton's contemporary in distressing headlines - has struggled to find broadcasting work, Deayton has not only returned to work but (if you include his appearance in Nighty Night) to jobs which are arguably more interesting than those he had before his tabloid shame.
At the time, most commentators suggested, often gloatingly, that his career was over. While the official BBC line was that he had become untenable only as the host as a show that satirised celebrities for bad behaviour, there was a media feeling he had become unwatchable in some wider moral sense.
The fact that the presenter was subsequently offered so much work reflects a feeling in the TV industry that the allegations against him (although sleazy) were less serious than those made against the daytime presenter John Leslie and that Deayton was perhaps too severely punished by losing his main employment.
Yet the fact that his comeback has mainly happened at ITV1 - which is highly sensitive to the attitudes of advertisers - suggests there has been no viewer opposition to his appearances. Although the sternest media moralists will be appalled at his restoration, it perhaps reflects a more mature culture than the one in which the careers of such figures as Simon Dee and Frank Bough were effectively ended for behaviour by no means unknown in newspapers.

About MeA little bit about my self.
I have been taking photos over the last 5 years as a hobby and this year I have decided to take the hobby to the next level. To do this I need to get out there and get more experience under my belt and so I can build on what I have already learned.
I like to use natural light to take most photos but I am also getting in to multiple flash photography as well, which I find gives a bit of a different feel to the photo.
If you like what you see in my port or go to my facebook page and hit the LIKE button, link above will take you my facebook page.
If you like to shoot get in contact via MM or FB and put your ideas forward.

If you know enough graduates you probably know someone who has applied for a position with the Big Four: KPMG, Deloitte, PwC and Ernst & Young (EY). They're huge companies with well-established graduate programmes that can set you up for great careers in management, finance and business.
Understandably this comes with some pretty huge odds. The Financial Times has a few statistics for the odds of successful candidates to unsuccessful candidates, and they're pretty high.
PwC25 applicants per position. (40,000:1,600)EY16 applicants per position. (15,000:950)KPMG28 applicants per position. (28,000:1,000)
The number of applicants for Deloitte is undisclosed, but the others speak for themselves.
To paraphrase David Tennant's speech to graduating actors, if there's anything else you think you want to apply for, then apply for that. The process is long, and it might be hard, and the odds are high, so if you can spare yourself all that be nice to yourself and do something else. But if you can't, if you really really have to, then that drive and desire should serve you well, so good luck.
Now, applying to the Big Four is a lot easier than being a successful actor, but it's not a cakewalk. For any of you still with us, here is a breakdown of the application. KPMG, Deloitte, PwC and EY all have very similar selection processes, so this is a one-stop guide to all of them. By the end you should feel just as confident as these terrifying stock photo children.
Let's jump straight in.
N.B. A lot of the tips here (particularly in the Application and Interview sections) are useful for any form of job application, so you'll find something useful no matter where you're applying.
1. Application – Getting to know you, getting to know all about you
Stage one: the pitch. The first impression. And, as all the Big Four agree, first impressions count. The application forms vary slightly between companies. Some ask for little more than personal information, others ask for your reasons for applying and details of your work experience, though the same advice applies to all of them:
Do your research
Say you've chosen to apply for an audit position with Deloitte. You could have applied for their consulting job, or auditing with KPMG, or even an executive assistant with FitnessGenes. My point is you've chosen one particular position: show them why. Look at their website, their marketing materials, some testimonials. Figure out exactly what they do and what you hope to be doing.
Then have a look at the market. In these positions it's essential to keep up to date, so read the news, both about the company and about the competitors. If you show your learning they know you've worked hard on this form.
Education and skills – know the balance
Recent news has pointed out that a stellar academic record is not the most important thing on an application for the Big Four. What they're looking for is applied learning, and useful skills. This affects everyone, both high-scorers and low. If you're not leaving a highly respected university with a top First they won't hold that against you as long as you can show all the skills you know that didn't come up in your degree. Equally, if you have left Oxford with a published dissertation you can't rely on that to coast through your application. As PwC puts it, "awareness and evidence" of relevant skills and qualities are what they're looking for.
Be interesting, be personal
Very important, considering the last two points. It sounds a bit vague, but this is what a KPMG recruiter is screaming out after reading 20,000 applications that are just lists of qualifications and quotes from their own website. The company wants to get a sense of what you're like, and this is your chance to give them that. Tell specific stories about you to show your skills, take things from the marketing that resonates with you for a reason. Engage with the people on the other side, they're human too.
Know when to stop
This is your elevator pitch, it shouldn't go into every detail. You want to save some things to elaborate in an interview, so tease them with some of your stories. If everything else you've said is interesting enough to them they'll definitely be back to ask about them.
So you seal up your form in a nice online envelope and send it off, and all going well you're through to the next round!
2 Online testing (very testing)
Numerical reasoning, verbal reasoning, situational judgement tests: if you don't know what they mean don't worry. Neither did I before researching this article and I managed to find out with a little googling, so I've done that step for you!
By and large when you're invited to do these tests you have a time limit to complete them in. You may have a week to finish all the tests and each one has to be completed within 20 minutes. Never fear, though, because the internet is peppered with example tests to keep you in practice.
Numerical and verbal reasoning
All of the companies do one or both of these tests at some point in the process, so it's best to brush up on them. Numerical reasoning tests your knowledge of (unlikely as it may seem) numbers, specifically percentages, rates, trends, sales analysis and the like. Verbal reasoning has similar trend and relationship analysis, but is based on words (surprise, surprise), and is a bit more like an English comprehension exercise.
EY and PwC provide their own links to reasoning test websites. GreenTurn has examples for all four companies.
Situational Judgement Test (STJ)
While other companies may ask you to complete one of these, KPMG is the only one that mentions specifically. An STJ tests your reasoning and prioritisation in work-based scenarios, and will likely mention hypothetical scenarios that pit work and social life against each other and ask you to choose the best path.
It's important to see this from the employer's perspective: in these scenarios side with work for now. They are only hypothetical, and they just want to see that you will commit yourself to the job. It will not contract you into working late on your birthday.
You can practice the test here.
Deloitte and possibly others also have a simulated email inbox exercise. It sets you up in a fictional business based in real-life working scenarios, and asks you to prioritise and organise tasks. It might take some getting used to, so I'd definitely recommend trying this one out here (The program doesn't support Chrome).
All of these practice tests should tell you what the best answers and course of action are in each case, so you can track how well you did and learn for the real thing. If you've done well (and we all hope you did), then you'll be straight into the next stage:
3. Interviews
Things to remember:
Ask questions
Take your time
One piece of advice says that in an interview you should pretend like you've already got the job. It's a useful tip as long as you don't get too cocky. What it does remind you is to be confident in yourself and what you're saying, and to not expect too much of yourself. Don't just blurt out the first thing that comes to your head, let a question land, take a moment, and respond calmly, casually dropping in a reminder of how great you are.
Assuming your calm and confident self breezes through this first round some of you may take a different direction. For PwC applicants the next round is an individual face-to-face interview, in which case review the information in this section and take a look at section 4. But, for everyone else you're off to…
4. Assessment centres
Now you meet your competition! Or your co-workers, depending on how you look at it. The assessment centres are described by most of the Four as immersive, and are designed to simulate actual work (though are often based on a fictional business, like the e-tray exercises). Now we don't have any real example material, but there are plenty of forums where you can find testimonials of previous applicants. These are my favourite. Above all, though, remember again to think from an employer's perspective: they are looking for team work, leadership, "energy and enthusiasm" (as EY put it).
For all but Deloitte this is also the first face-to-face contact with the employers you'll get. Think of how you're presenting yourself, and as PwC says: "If in doubt, dress conservatively."
- More e-tray exercises (whoo!)
- Individual written assessments
- Teamwork exercises
- Pits of hot coals
They're unlikely to feature all of the above, but it's best to be prepared. Use your research, use your intuition, and more than anything remember to be yourself and be unique.
5. Final steps
Deloitte has a final assessment involving an interview case study (which they'll give you beforehand) and KPMG has a final interview, so just follow the steps in section 2. Remember now, of course, that body language is important, so think about your posture and use eye contact (though not too much). We'll have an article on this sort of thing soon.
PwC and EY decide after the assessment centre, so though you may be called into a final interview, all that's left is to wait.
6. The aftermath
If you're unsuccessful try not to be disheartened. That might be hard; If you've followed this guide you would have done a lot of work for it, but at the end of the day remember those odds at the beginning.
The upsides: you can ask for feedback and learn from that. Going over each practice test again, re-write your application content to be your best sales pitch. There are plenty more opportunities to reapply. And, if not, spend some times in some internships to build up your professional experience. You could get internships with the Big Four to gain a knowledge of how they work or have a scroll through our website to see if anything catches your fancy.
If you are successful, great! But remember the hard work has only just started. Luckily you want to do it, otherwise you wouldn't have read all the way down to here.
All of the applications can be accessed through our website.

(Creation CRECD232)
It says a lot about the Jesus and Mary Chain that, even though this eighth album clings tenaciously to the style with which they opened their career a dozen or more years ago, it still manages to sound more vital and essentially rock'n'roll than the plodding progress of Embrace's debut. Maybe it's because the Mary Chain remain obsessed with the form in a way which seems simply beyond the Yorkshire group's understanding, bookending Munki with the scuzzy contradictions of "I Love Rock'n'Roll" and "I Hate Rock'n'Roll". They realise that, to really love it, it's necessary to recognise its worst aspects for what they are.
This, their first album since 1994's Stoned and Dethroned, is by no means the Mary Chain's best, but there are enough priceless moments to reward old fans for their faith, notably the sullen uncoiling of "Cracking Up", one of several moments of unapologetic self-revelation: "They said I was a freak/I am/They said I was in-com-plete/I am a freak". Clearly, the band have a much firmer understanding of their own position these days. "I'm a bad motherfucker now, but I once was cool," sings Jim Reid in "Birthday", carrying the line off with characteristic insouciance whilst a lovely celeste/glockenspiel sound picks grace notes at the edges of the melody, in Spector fashion.
It's not a complete success, of course: the great riffs are rarer than they should be, and the Beach Boy-inspired air of mellow poignancy is harder to locate here than before, but their grasp of the little details, like the shaker and tambourine percussion that tugs at many of the grooves, is better than ever. And in the self-reflective "Never Understood", they capture the essential thrill of that first seductive brush with rock'n'roll as well as any band around.
The Good Will Out
(Hut CDHUT46)
Swathed in impossible expectations, Embrace's debut album arrives a little too late to make the kind of impact that might justify its tardiness. It'll doubtless sell well, given their lumbering momentum, but there's an unavoidable sense of their chasing after the carnival some time after it's gone, sweeping up what's left of that glum strain of Britpop that crosses the Verve with Oasis, and trying to pass it off as quality merchandise.
It won't do - not least because of the manifold shortcomings of vocalist Danny McNamara, whose bland, pallid singing fails to animate the group's slight melodies in the manner of a Gallagher or an Ashcroft, slumping into the lumpen when it should be uplifting. Nor, indeed, do their unfathomably bad arrangements help matters: theirs appears to be a musical philosophy that believes a song's essential dullness can be disguised by simply adding more to it - more guitars, some horns, maybe a stack of background vocals lah-lah-ing away tediously - in an orgy of baseless self-regard. It's all so unimaginative and laborious, with little grasp of the grace, zest or whimsy that elevates journeyman pop into the higher realms.
The result is tracks like the latest version of "All You Good Good People", whose sub-Oasean pomp is rendered all the more second-hand by sluggish trumpets fanfaring the group's feverish barking up the wrong tree; or, even worse, "I Want The World", an over-inflated blimp of ambition that contains little of substance to support their aspirations. For despite all their boasting, there's scant evidence of any musical ambition on The Good Will Out; Embrace are apparently happy to continue chasing a retro-pop dream that has itself already become irredeemably retro. The bandwagon went thataways, lads.
Elliott Smith
(Domino WIGCD51)
If there's such a thing as a sadcore superstar, Elliott Smith must be that oxymoronic presence, especially after the widespread dissemination of his quiet talents through the Good Will Hunting soundtrack. This third solo album features the usual sadcore stylings - strummed guitars, hoarse, understated vocals, and drums that jut into the songs like rocks perilously half-hidden beneath the emotional waves that course through them. There's an intense sense of alienation about songs like "Alameda", "Angeles" and "Rose Parade", in which Smith gathers together observations of the world about him without ever seeming to connect with it. "Alameda", for instance, is a quiet frenzy of emotional bad faith, knotted together with the pay-off line "If you're alone it must be you that wants to be apart".
Smith's approach appears to be one of timid misanthropy, wracked with self-loathing: he may have little faith in humanity in general, but it's a fair bet that he hates himself more. Either/Or ultimately leaves you with a powerful sense of a life almost painfully over-examined. But it's indicative of his skill that a song like "Pictures Of Me", in which a shy recluse chides himself for "flirting with the flicks" (his "Miss Misery" was nominated for an Oscar, and performed at the Academy Awards ceremony), should function just as well as a song about the temptations of pornography. It's impossible to tell whether he's talking about fame or Aids when he concludes, "Everybody's dying just to get the disease".
Heather Nova
Heather Nova seems to have undergone something of a Morissette make-over since 1995's engaging Oyster, which probably makes good commercial sense, but rather undersells her abilities.
Besides which, she's not the world's most natural rock chick - her talents are subtler than this new style requires, much more suited to the folk- rock lilt of "Valley Of Sound" and the lovely trip-folk closer "Not Only Human". The new, heavier approach results in Nova sounding slightly more generic, rather like Meredith Brooks - especially on the everywoman anthem "I'm The Girl", a more refined variation on the "Bitch" theme that finds Heather sizing herself up against Siren, Godiva, Medusa, Joan Of Arc and Georgia O'Keefe: an attractive enough prospect, snakes aside.
Nova never strays too far from her basic themes of self-discovery, assertiveness and romantic infatuation, fine when applied to a simple effusion of intimacy like "London Rain", but less convincing on a track like "Avalanche", where the hook - "You look like the avalanche I need" - suggests the rather melodramatic emotional expectations involved.
Amon Tobin
(Ninja Tune zenCD 36)
Far more energetic than his two moody contributions to Ninja Tune's recent FunKungFusion suggested, Amon Tobin's follow-up to Bricolage finds him firmly on a jazz-jungle tip, with track after track essaying complex jazz breakbeat variations with considerable bravado. The opener, "Like Regular Chickens", is typical, its relaxed breakbeat snap embellished with jazz drum flourishes, vibes, and the occasional smear of soundtrack strings; it's like Buddy Rich arranged by Henry Mancini, which is an ambitious enough blend of styles, although subsequent drum-heavy outings such as "Bridge" and "Reanimator" can stretch your attention a little too far.
But when it works, it works beautifully: "Nightlife", the track most likely to crop up in a Hollywood action movie, slips smoothly between spooky night-club noir and more frantic bebop junglism, while the tunnel- breakout epic "Escape" uses a delightful avant-jazz sax scribble and looming clouds of piano over a meticulous, metallic rhythm matrix to evoke the appropriate mood of claustrophobic tension. An object lesson in how to derive effective emotional impact from bravura sequencing.

Joshua Tree set for a break
Marco Botti intends to give his Canadian International winner Joshua Tree a short break before possibly embarking on a trip to Japan.
Last Updated: 15/10/12 11:05am
Joshua Tree is unlikely to use his entry into the Breeders' Cup which came courtesy of his second victory in the Canadian International on Sunday evening.
The Grade One at Woodbine forms part of the "Win And You're In" series for the American jamboree next month but trainer Marco Botti would rather give his globe-trotting star a bit of a break.
Joshua Tree won the Canadian International two years ago when trained by Aidan O'Brien and finished second 12 months ago to Sarah Lynx for Botti, who is now eyeing a trip to the Far East.
"It's unlikely that he'll go to the Breeders' Cup but I'll speak to the owners," said Botti.
"We'll get him home before we make a definite decision but that has been his target for a while.
Longer Break
"The Japan Cup is more likely, that is something we need to discuss. That would give him a little bit of a longer break as he's been on the go all year since Meydan.
"The course at Woodbine just seems to suit him perfectly, he loves it there. He was entitled to win, I thought, as he had been in such good form, winning in Deauville and then running well behind Orfevre.
"We decided on a slight change of tactics and there are not many better jockeys than Frankie Dettori from the front. When he kicked clear, I knew he'd hold on because he's so tough.
"It was so nearly a dream weekend with Moohaajim just getting beaten in the Middle Park, but there'll be bigger days next year for him."

After your time in Racchi, you will stop at Sicuani to enjoy a buffet lunch of traditional Peruvian dishes. After lunch, you will travel through the highest point of the journey, La Raya (4300m, 14100ft), which is the halfway point between Cusco and Puno.

I normally prefer to book everything myself, but this time we traveled with 7 people, ranging from 3 to 70 years old, and it seemed hard to manage the logistics in Peru. The itinerary Cultural Immersion planned for us was perfect for all, and they had clearly listened to our preferences. Because everything was so well-planned we didn't waste any time, and the excellent guides made sure we saw and experienced as much as possible. It was a stress-free holiday, even though, looking back, it feels like we have done and seen so much. It was an unforgettable trip for all of us!
We recently came back from an amazing trip to Peru all booked by Cultural Immersion. From the time we landed in Lima, going to Cusco, Sacred Valley, Aguas Calientes, and back to Lima Cultural Immersion hand held our hands with spectacular services. Our tour guide who stayed with us for four days was very professional and well experienced. The Luxury Hotel selections that Cultural Immersion booked for us were beyond spectacular such as Tambo Del Inka in Sacred Valley and Inkaterra in Aguas Calientes and the JW Marriott in Cusco. Thank you Cultural Immersion!!!!!
From the moment we inquired about excusions with C.I., we had only top-notched, immediate responses. Every question, every detail, every concern was dealt with in a professional, yet personal manner. Often with their quick replies, we felt we were their only clients. My sister and I never travel with a tour, so this was our first. C.I. met the bill with private tours catering to our interest and needs. After reading T.A. forums, I had many concerns about booking the train to Machu Picchu. Eduardo and Niki booked these well in advance and we were thrilled when we were seated in literally front row seats, with a picture perfect, unobstructed view of the approaching scenery. Our guide Joana was not only an authority on the culture and history, but she showed us a sensitivity towards the Peruvians by purchasing cheese from an independent seller who couldn't afford a stall in the marketplace and offering bread to those less forturnate. Daniel was a wealth of knowledge and instinctively geared the pace to suit our physical abilities. One of our best meals, was the tour to Lake Titicaca. We docked at a private location away from all the other boats and hiked a short way to a charming B.B. overlooking the crystal clear lake with a view of the Bolivian Andes as the background. The scrumptious meal was worthy of any four star restaurant. Eduardo and his staff will help you create memories of a lifetime.
We traveled with a Cultural Immersion tour to Peru in June 2010. We visited all the principal sites in Cuzco, Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu, Lake Titicaca, etc. Our guides were excellent and it was really nice to have everything taken care of such as lodging and transportation. We really learned a lot and saw some beautiful places.
We traveled to Peru with Cultural Immersion in May of 2011. All of the guides were great and the transfers between airports and hotels and train stations went off without a hitch. It was great to have someone meeting us in strange places and getting us safely to our destinations. The greatest value occurred when there was civil disorder near Lake Titicaca. The Cultural Immersion reps made all of the necessary changes in our travel reservations -- hotels, planes, and tours. Unfortunately we were unable to go to Lake Titicaca, but now we have an excuse to return to Peru and we will certainly travel with Cultural Immersion again.
My husband, two sons (15 and 17), and I spent 10 days in Peru with Cultural Immersion. It was an amazing experience. I was a little nervous about the trip because I had made all the arrangements based on information from the internet. Also, my sons have severe food allergies and taking them to another country where medical help might not be readily available was stressful for me. Hannah, at Cultural Immersion, had worked with me to accommodate the food allergies and to construct an itinerary that would be great for my active family. After a couple of days with Cultural Immersion, I knew I had made the right choice for a tour company. Our guide in the Cusco region, Danny, was excellent. He shared a lot of information and much insight with us. We enjoyed meeting Eduardo and talking with him about Cultural Immersion. I was happy to meet Hannah after all the emails I had sent and received! I would highly recommend Cultural Immersion for a trip to Peru. I would give them more green circles if I could!

Review on The Conrad Hotel Dublin, Alex Restaurant
In a prime spot opposite the National Concert Hall (just round the corner from St Stephen's Green), this five-star contemporary hotel is a great boon for business people and tourists alike. Thanks to extensive refurbishment and ongoing improvements, it has re-invented itself to good effect of late.
The stylish Alex restaurant specialises in seafood and it creates a good impression with its bright open-plan look, Elizabeth Cope paintings and Zen-like table arrangements signifying sea, stone and fire. The kitchen works to an exciting modern menu that might begin with calderrada (Portuguese-style fish soup with star anise and saffron), oysters or an upmarket Dublin Bay prawn cocktail.
Main courses move into the realms of brown shrimp risotto, pan-fried zander with new season's broad beans, plum tomato and wild lime salsa or John Dory with baby leeks, crushed purple potatoes, parsley and white balsamic dressing. Meat eaters are offered ham hock terrine with mulled plums, fillet steak and confit of pork with Bramley apple jus, black pudding mash and spring greens, while desserts have featured Baileys crème brûlée and steamed upside-down fruit pudding.
Seafood / Modern European

Breakfast: 7.00 - 10.00am (7.00 - 11.00am Sat & Sun)

TUESDAY WAS quite a big day, one way and another, for Sir Ian McKellen. In the afternoon, he received the news that he had been Oscar- nominated for Gods and Monsters. In the evening, he triumphantly took to the stage as Prospero at the opening of Jude Kelly's production of The Tempest, a play that has, of course, its fair share of monsters and gods. How do you cap that in a 24-hour spree? Discover that the Blessed Virgin has touched down in your dressing-room for a post-show Horlicks and is shyly waving her autograph book in your direction...?
The Tempest is the third and last event in the West Yorkshire Playhouse's vividly successful experiment in scheduling a season of drama with a resident company. One of the great benefits of seeing the same actors in a range of works is that it encourages you to notice sly connections and contrasts between the plays. McKellen, for example, has just finished portraying Garry Essendine, that arch control freak and Noel Coward's alter ego in Present Laughter. This succession of roles alerts you to just how much of a control freak the magician Prospero is.
Glamour-wise, McKellen's Prospero is at the opposite end of the scale from the silk-dressing-gowned Garry. In his tatty cardigan, battered straw hat and bare white shins, he resembles a day-tripper to Bognor who has fallen on hard times. But then, with its filthy underfoot sheeting and dangling swags of iron chains, the enchanted island is here re-imagined as a bleakly derelict correctional institute. As he enters, McKellen adds another chalk mark to the wall, as though counting off the days of his exile.
In an exquisitely calibrated, low-key performance he conveys to perfection the struggle in Prospero between manipulative rage at his shipwrecked enemies and an uneasy underlying conviction that the original wrongs done to him may have been partly his fault. Even at the zenith of his power, he delivers the rousing "Ye elves of hills, brooks, standing lakes..." speech in the touching, disarrayed tones of a headmaster who has privately handed in his resignation but needs to keep up appearances at assembly.
If the emotions in this production are real, most of the decor is pure plastic: such sheeting creates, among other things, wigwams for the spirits in the celestial masque and the huge wings that tumble like a cataract from the lofty Ariel when he confronts the men of sin. The casting of actresses as these latter does not work: their scenes come over too much like a butch fancy-dress party. Consequently, the crucial episode where the primary usurpation is so nearly re-enacted goes for little, and the performers playing Stephano and Trinculo lack the comic presence to sell the slapstick routines. But the rest of the production exerts a potent, if studiedly uncharming, spell.

Plans by Gov. Terry Branstad and Iowa House Republicans to replace Iowas universal preschool program with a scholarship program for four-year-olds would reduce state spending in the first year by about $25 million to $35 million, depending on the option chosen, according to a report by the nonpartisan Iowa Legislative Services Agency.
The report assumes it would cost $69.9 million to continue the universal preschool program in the 2012 budget year, starting July 1, 2011, and $71.1 million in the 2013 budget year. Iowa House Republicans would instead spend $33.6 million on the scholarship program, while Branstad, also a Republican, proposes a $43.6 million preschool program. That would result in first-year savings of either $36.3 million or $26.3 million.
However, the establishment of the preschool scholarship program would require additional administrative costs of about $900,000 annually for the Iowa Department of Education, including the hiring of two additional employees, the report said. That would bring the total spending reduction to about $25.4 million or $35.4 million.
The preschool scholarship program envisions that a family would be required to pay some of the cost and that state aid would be linked to a familys income.
Rep. Tyler Olson, D-Cedar Rapids, criticized the Republicans proposals in response to the report, saying the GOP-sponsored plans would be bad for children and too costly to administer. House Republicans said Olsons comments were misguided, pointing out that the report didnt evaluate the quality of the education that would be offered and that overall state spending would be reduced.

What is Sucralose?
Many people who struggle with their weight or have to watch their blood sugar often turn to artificial sweeteners. This way they can enjoy sweeter, more flavorful foods while avoiding the negatives effects that come from too much sugar intake. One such artificial sweetener that has become increasingly popular is sucralose. A derivative of sugar, Sucralose is a s no calorie sweetener that is many as 600 times sweeter than sugar, 2 times sweeter than saccharin, and 3 times sweeter than aspartame [1, 3]. The secret to its sweetness is the 2 extra chlorine molecules present that increase surface area of the Sucralose molecule, and thus sweetness.
It is the only artificial sweetener derived from sugar, and it is particularly liked because it actually tastes like sugar without the unpleasant aftertaste many other artificial sweeteners have [1].
The FDA has declared that Sucralose is safe for use in any way that sugar would be used [1, 2].
Benefits of Sucralose
As far as artificial sweeteners go, Sucralose boasts many benefits including its similar taste to sugar, lack of caloric impact, lack of negative effects on dental health, extraordinary heat stability, long shelf-life, and compatibility with most ingredients used in food [1]. Most of the consumed Sucralose simply passes through the body, completely unabsorbed, making it beneficial for those looking to avoid weight gain without losing taste.
Since pure sucralose is very sweet, only a small amount is needed. 50-100mg should be enough to sweeten an eight ounce drink.

Objetividade no atendimento. A localização é muito boa e o atendimento perfeito. Na reserva, o hotel poderia oferecer diversas opções de translado a partir dos aeroportos MIA e FLL pois é complicado e muito oneroso por táxi,
A equipe foi muito simpática e cortês N/A
Imundo, caro e não era como estava no site
Lugar calmo N/A
Os quartos são bons e espaçosos! A aparência das pessoas que frequentam o hotel não é boa. Tivemos informação de um funcionário de uma loja próxima ao hotel que este já está famoso pelas pessoas que vão ao hotel para se drogarem!!
Quando chegamos não havia luzes no quarto. Depois que consertaram, pudemos ocupar o quarto. A equipe foi estranha desde o início. Quatro carros foram arrombados na mesma noite em que estivemos lá. A janela do nosso carro também foi arrombada. O quarto não estava limpo... Cama desconfortável e ruídos de trem a cada 15 minutos. A única coisa boa a respeito deste hotel é o lobby.
A localização, fica a uma curta caminhada de restaurantes e do ponto de ônibus Serviço ruim ao consumidor O elevador era ruim O Wifi não conectou
Limpeza, conforto Wi-Fi, ruído de trem
Nada Alarme de incêndio a executar toda a noite em quarto. Quarto sujo. Fique longe
Fique longe deste lugar Lugar velho e sujo. Fique longe. Trem correndo 24/7
A localização é boa, perto das compras e de alguns restaurantes o quarto cheira mofo e os lençois pareciam muito velho, muito barulho porque fica atras da linha do trem.

The wonderful lavish breakfast.the courteous staff.All the amenities promised on booking were provided. Above all ver hi fi locality location. Love to go again n again. Everything was good ! There was nothing to dislike !
Everything was a nice smooth process. It was more expensive than it should have been. Bathroom was a bit out dated.
The cleanliness was amazing! Everything smelled fresh and clean everywhere we went... The breakfast was also great, as it included hot foods as well as the continental breakfast. Totally satisfied! The shower could have better water pressure, but everything was great!
There was not a close by CVS or Walgreens
I stayed there June 2th to 4th.Hotel Employee was very profecional. When I got to my room it was very clean. MY FAVORITE THINGS WAS BREAKFAST FOR ME AND I DID NOT HAVE TO TRAVEL TO GO LOOK FOR FOOD. PLEASE KEEP ON DOING EXCELENT WORK. I WILL COME BACK AGA I love everything about this hotel, outstanding WORK. I AM TRYING TO FIND THE SAME HOTEL IN SARASOTA CLOSE TO BEACH FOR NEXT WEEK. HOPEFULLY, I WILL FIND THE SAME HOLIDAY INN WITH BREAKFAST TO STAY FOR 3 DAYS.
The hotel had cookies until Thursday. The hotel had laundry facilities for the guests. We almost got scolded in the shower...we asked that something be done about it, but nothing was done to fix the problem. The pool is located along a very busy, noisy road. The room was not done until very late afternoon twice...need more cleaning staff.
This guest did not leave comments about this hotel.

The staff was very friendly, food was terrific, and the beds were comfortable. The hotel was really nice with a friendly staff. Breakfast was amazing and very filling. We only had two problems, first one out of two rooms had to move 3 tines because their were roaches in the room.

Poulter carded a final-round 70 at Dar Es Salam for a 15-under-par total of 277 and a two-stroke winning margin over fellow Englishman David Lynn.
Last season's Rookie of the Year was never headed after the second round.
But the most impressive feature of his win was the way he saved par superbly several times on the back nine in the final round as the chasing pack closed in.
"It's another dream day," admitted the 25-year-old from Hertfordshire, who only claimed his first win in the Italian Open in Sardinia last October.
"It was really difficult going out in the lead like last time, with everyone snapping at your heels. I gave myself a few chances early on but didn't really take them until I made a great eagle on the 10th.
"There were still a few awkward shots on the back nine. I had to take my medicine on the 11th, but made some good putts for par after that which really kept me going."
The Ryder Cup in September is still a long way away and Poulter knows he will have to continue such form to earn enough points to qualify for Sam Torrance's team.
"It's obviously something I look at but I'm going to have to play awfully well to get in the side," said Poulter.
"You have to accumulate a lot of points and play well in the big tournaments in the summer."Reuse content
