Here we are, folks: the End of Season Post-Mortem series. If you're new here (which about 50% of our reader base is in comparison to last year), here's a brief explanation: after a team is eliminated from playoff contention, we're going to put their season under a microscope and look at just what the hell went wrong, what went right, and so on and so forth. The goal is to post these the day after a team is eliminated.
Was the Baltimore Orioles' 2012 success for real? That was the question coming into this season. Had the O's become a perennial contender in the AL East or were they a one-year flash in the pan? Capitalizing on that breakout success with an offseason splash seemed like the natural move to make. Yet the front office was curiously inactive last winter, opting not to add a top starting pitcher or upgrade in left field. Despite the emergence of Chris Davis and Manny Machado as superstar talents, standing pat with the roster — especially the pitching staff — may have cost them a return trip to the postseason.
Preseason prediction: Even with their lack of lack of off-season additions, the Orioles probably are better on paper than they were last season. That being said, they are probably not going to come close to their 2012 success. That might seem counter-intuitive, but it is really just a matter of no team being able to maintain the same luck in close games that Baltimore experienced last year. Still, they are going into this season looking at a full season out of Manny Machado and Chris Tillman, a healthy Nick Markakis, the potential debut of Dylan Bundy and more than enough warm bodies to throw at the back end of their rotation that the law of probablility practically mandates that at least one of them will pan out decently. Still, they just can't be that lucky again, not in a division as brutal as the AL East. In all likelihood the O's will be fighting to stay above the .500 mark rather than fighting for a playoff spot.
What Went Right: Davis benefited from the ol' change of scenery, escaping Texas to break out as the slugger everyone expected him to be. But in his second full season in Baltimore, Davis emerged as one of the best hitters in MLB. The Orioles first baseman looked like a serious challenger to Miguel Cabrera for the AL Triple Crown during the first half of the season. Davis' batting average dropped significantly since July, but he could finish the season with the most home runs and RBI in baseball. The O's have him under team control for two more seasons, unless they want to pursue a long-term contract extension.
Adam Jones also showed that his 2012 emergence was no fluke. For the second straight season, the center fielder exceeded 30 home runs and 35 doubles. Jones also surpassed 100 RBI for the first time in his career.
Before going down with a knee injury late in the season, Machado established himself as one of MLB's brightest young stars. He provided outstanding defense at third base, preventing more than 30 runs at his position, according to FanGraphs' Ultimate Zone Rating. Machado also led the AL with 51 doubles. As many have pointed out, once the 21-year-old fills out and develops more power, a lot of those doubles will become home runs.
What Went Wrong: Perhaps the Orioles chose not to pursue a top free-agent starting pitcher because they believed top prospect Dylan Bundy would be ready to make the jump to the majors during the season. Unfortunately, Bundy developed forearm issues that are often the precursor to an elbow injury. Those worst fears were confirmed when a torn elbow ligament was discovered and Tommy John surgery was required for the 20-year-old.
With that setback, general manager Dan Duquette was among the most aggressive at the trade deadline, acquiring reliever Francisco Rodriguez, starters Scott Feldman and Bud Norris, and outfielder Michael Morse in an attempt to gain an edge over the Rays and Yankees in the AL wild-card race. None were ultimately impact players for the O's, but it was important to demonstrate to players and fans that the team was serious about staying in contention and returning to the playoffs.
Baltimore may also carry some questions about Jim Johnson into the offseason. Johnson led the AL in saves for the second consecutive season, but also blew more opportunities than any other closer this year. His strikeout rate increased, yet so did his rate of walks and hits allowed per nine innings. Will the O's try to trade Johnson while his value is still relatively high? That might depend on whether Showalter believes someone like T.J. McFarland or Darren O'Day is capable of taking over ninth-inning duties.
Most Surprising Player: Another reason that the O's may not have pursued an ace-type starter in the offseason is because they believed one of their in-house candidates was capable of leading the rotation. Chris Tillman might not necessarily be an ideal No. 1 starter. His .266 BABIP (Batting Average on Balls in Play) and 4.36 FIP (Fielding Independent Pitching) indicate that he wasn't really as good as his 16-7 record and 3.62 ERA would lead you to believe.
Yet Tillman also finished with the highest strikeout rate among Orioles starting pitchers, averaging nearly eight Ks per nine innings. He also threw more than 200 innings, the sort of heavy workload that every big league rotation needs. The question is whether or not he should be the No. 1 guy in Baltimore's starting five. Orioles starters compiled a 4.51 ERA this year, ranking 27th out of 30 MLB clubs. Think of how much better this staff could be with a true ace at the top with Tillman working as the second or third starter in the rotation.
Most Disappointing Player: Baltimore's starting pitching would certainly have been helped by a better performance from Jason Hammel. Last year, he was a pleasant surprise for the Orioles, finishing with a 3.43 ERA while striking out nearly nine batters per nine innings. But in 2013, Hammel regressed badly. His strikeout rate dropped to 6.1, while he averaged 10 hits allowed every nine frames. Should it be a surprise that his ERA surged to 5.04?
Hammel is a free agent after the season and it's difficult to imagine the O's will bring him back next year unless he's willing to sign a bargain-rate contract and pitch at the back of the rotation.
The Future: Will Duquette and Showalter take their aggressive trade deadline approach into the coming offseason and get another outfield bat, designated hitter or top-of-the-rotation starter? That could be the difference in Baltimore continuing to compete with the Red Sox and Rays in the AL East.
The injuries to Bundy and Machado are devastating in the short-term, but happened early enough in their young careers that Baltimore should still feel very hopeful about them becoming cornerstone players for the franchise. The same should apply to infield prospect Jonathan Schoop, who suffered a stress fracture in his lower back this year. He and Kevin Gausman, who struggled in his first major league action in 2013, might need some more time to develop in the minors.
Despite those setbacks, however, the future looks bright for the Orioles. Not qualifying for the playoffs this year has to be a disappointment, but Baltimore demonstrated its success wasn't a one-season fluke. With their current stars and developing young talent, the O's should be an AL East and wild-card contender for years to come.

Direct savings accrue to social health insurance and national health services in every country with incoming parallel trade. This is because national governments and/or their national health providers have introduced various measures to guarantee savings through parallel trade.
In a 2003 study of the market for parallel trade in medicines, entitled "Benefits to Payers and Patients from Parallel Trade", York Health Economics Consortium found that parallel trade generated direct savings to patients and social health insurance systems in excess of €630 million in 2002.
|2002 Savings (€m)
|16m (2001)
|Total - 5 countries
The study went on to say that "these direct and indirect savings from the parallel trade of pharmaceuticals have played a major role in holding down the spiralling public healthcare bill in many European countries."
Not only does a parallel trader have to better the price of the medicine directly imported by the domestic trademark owner, it will also need to compete on price and availability with other parallel traders operating in the same national market. In Sweden, for example, it has been shown that the price of a particular parallel traded medicine continues to fall the more parallel trade entrants there are.
With AstraZeneca's Spirocort Inhaler (alternatively known in other countries as Pulmicort) for the prevention of asthmatic attacks it was calculated by EAEPC Danish member association (PFL) that direct savings in Denmark in 2001 from the use of parallel traded versions amounted to DKr 30.05 million (approx €4.04 million) or 29.5% of the cost of the brand to social health insurance.

Though Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Congress President Sonia Gandhi had a meeting last Sunday, the sources said that the consultations over the reshuffle were yet to take place.
As political circles were agog with reports of reshuffle, Union Minister and National Conference representative in the UPA government Farooq Abdullah said the Prime Minister probably wants to have new faces so that in the remaining three years of its term the government can "serve well".
Another Cabinet Minister Salman Khurshid, who belongs to Congress, said the government was working in a transparent manner and if there had been "hiccups" in matters of governance they were being attended to.

text: I have been on the brink of returning my Captivate a few times due to it's general lagyness. I've soldiered on and played with settings (and relied heavily on members of this forum and others) and have come up with a very general setup that seems to make this phone much better in my opinion. Free free to correct, add to what I've put here or add your own suggestions as well. It's rooted. I turned OFF power save mode I downloaded SetCPU and set it to make the processor run 100% all the time. I installed LauncherProBeta to replace touchwiz (this made an immediate improvement for me.) I setup Adv Task Killer to auto kill every 4 hours, it runs in the background, I use it to conveniantly check memory available but DO NOT kill tasks unless necessary. And lastly, per a suggestion from a friend on these forums with an EVO, downloaded, and installed MinFreeManager. It's a memory management program that basically allows you to set the minimum memory you want to keep available it then manages running programs so that that amount of ram is always on hand. Before using this I would average around 100MB free and would drop as low as 72MB. Since installing I'm averaging about 130MB free ALL THE TIME. Again, it's made a huge difference. I'll list the settings here as I have them. I apologize, they were given to me and honestly I have no idea what the individual settings pertain to. Only that they work for me. 14 16 24 150 152 190 Hope that helps some of you.

Fee Schedules/Prospective Payment Systems (PPS)
Attention Health Professionals: Information Regarding the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015
On April 14, 2015, Congress passed the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015; the President is expected to sign it shortly. This law eliminates the negative update of 21% scheduled to take effect as of April 1, 2015, for the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule. In addition, provisions allowing for exceptions to the therapy cap, add-on payments for ambulance services, payments for low volume hospitals, and payments for Medicare dependent hospitals that expired on April 1 have been extended. CMS will immediately begin work to implement these provisions.
In an effort to minimize financial effects on providers, CMS previously instituted a 10-business day processing hold for all impacted claims with dates of service April 1, 2015, and later. While the Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs) have been instructed to implement the rates in the legislation, a small volume of claims will be processed at the reduced rate based on the negative update amount. The MACs will automatically reprocess claims paid at the reduced rate with the new payment rate.
No action is necessary from providers who have already submitted claims for the impacted dates of service.
Access information on fee schedules and prospective payment systems through the following CMS resources:
Instructions for accessing payment data or amounts for specific timeframes, and any related Change Requests/Transmittals, are available on the CMS website for each Fee Schedule or Pricer. Go to the CMS Website and key in the applicable search word.

Italy, from the toe to the Alps, was the scene of the longest, bloodiest, most frustrating, and least understood series of battles fought by the Western Allies during World War II. Now, John S. D. Eisenhower offers a new look at the Italian campaign, emphasizing the Anzio offensive—an operation pushed by Winston Churchill that fell largely to American troops to carry out. It was visualized as an amphibious landing of two Allied divisions behind German lines that would force the Wehrmacht to evacuate all of Italy. But the Germans held on and, with the arrival of reinforcements, nearly wiped out the Allied troops pinned down at Anzio Beach.
By portraying that struggle from the perspectives of both commanders and foot soldiers, this prominent military historian focuses on the experiences of the individuals who fought in the Italian campaign to reveal what the battle at Anzio was all about. But more than the account of one operation, They Fought at Anzio covers the entire Italian campaign, from the landings at Salerno to the capture of Rome.
Eisenhower brings a trained eye to reconstructing the difficult terrain of battle, approaching the Anzio campaign as a contest between opposing commands striving to anticipate and counter the opponent's moves—not as a field exercise but as a deadly struggle for survival. He analyzes the command decisions that brought about the Anzio stalemate, interspersing his account with personal experiences of the men in the trenches, the nurses of the 56th Evacuation Hospital, and the young officers witnessing the horrors of war for the first time.
As a study in command, Eisenhower's narrative gives new credit to generals Lucian Truscott and Fred Walker and assesses both the strengths and weaknesses of General Mark Clark, allowing us to grasp the situation as it appeared to those in command. He also offers compelling portraits of German commanders Field Marshal Albert Kesselring and General Frido von Senger und Etterlin.
It has been said that Anzio was a soldier's battle, remembered more for blood shed than for military objectives achieved. By focusing on the experiences of the soldiers who fought there and the decisions of commanders in perilous circumstances, They Fought at Anzio offers a new appreciation of the contributions of both and a new understanding of this unheralded theater of the war.
"As a career soldier and military historian, John Eisenhower brings impeccable historical credentials to the field of military history. . . . In They Fought at Anzio, Eisenhower focuses on the dilemma facing the commanders responsible and those who fought the battles and treated the wounded and the dying. He is well-versed to do so, and not only has he personally known some of the men he writes about, but his unique relationship with his father is a priceless historical asset that he has always judiciously utilized."—Carlo W. D'Este, author of Patton: A Genius for War "What Eisenhower has really accomplished is a powerful overview of the entire Italian campaign. His coverage of the leadership is as strong as his treatment of the foot solder, and both perspectives really tell us what the battle at Anzio involved."—Robert H. Ferrell, author of Five Days in October: The Lost Battalion of World War I "They Fought at Anzio is a fine work of history by a very fine historian. John S. D. Eisenhower can tell a good story, and he has told this one with a sharp eye for character and the telling detail."—Rick Atkinson, author of In the Company of Soldiers: A Chronicle of Combat

The signals from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) about the bailout application by Ghana are befuddling.
With the President denying that there is such an application pending before the Bretton Wood institution – against the backdrop of contrary positions by his Minister of Finance and Economic Planning and the bailout source itself – Ghanaians are at a loss as to what to believe.
We are constrained, as are many others who have followed this unnecessary banter, to conclude that one of the persons is not telling the truth. People who attain a certain status in society must exhibit decent qualities, one of which is being truthful.
Losing this quality opens such persons to contemptuous labels which are not commensurate with their status.
One fact is clear though. In the midst of the maze of contradictory statements: Ghana has formally applied for an IMF lifeline in the face of the biting economic crisis. So whether the President counters this fact or not we would not be drawn into a useless banter.
We have observed regrettably how the IMF subject has been treated with an assortment of lenses since it popped up.
We are hard-pressed not to align with the stance that the President is on a propaganda mode: it is a level which spawns the kind of outlandish denial we are being treated to by the man who has authored the application for a bailout as it were.
President John Mahama's problem is understandable, as he tries albeit abortively, to downplay the crisis the economy is in. Managing a credibility challenge, especially when it concerns governance, is a different kettle of fish. More so after the President had denied that he was turning to the IMF for a bailout.
Denying that Ghana is in crisis when indeed the factors on the ground point to such a situation, is responsible for the varying signals about whether the government has really applied for the facility or not.
Honestly, we do not understand why the President would turn to the IMF simply to enhance the credibility challenge facing the country.
That itself is an admission by him that the country is suffering a credibility deficiency on the international scene, and would seek the intervention of an institution like the IMF to remedy the challenge.
Are we to believe therefore that President Mahama turned to the IMF simply to have the fund shore up the dwindled confidence in the economy by the international community and investors? Does such an arrangement exist in the terms of reference of the IMF?
Who is not telling the truth about the IMF bailout? Is it the President, the IMF or the Minister of Finance?
When eventually the conditionalities take effect, the truth about the IMF bailout will come out unambiguously.

|Summary, etc.:
| Rock star, crowdfunding pioneer, and TED speaker Amanda Palmer knows all about asking. Performing as a living statue in a wedding dress, she wordlessly asked thousands of passersby for their dollars. When she became a singer, songwriter, and musician, she was not afraid to ask her audience to support her as she surfed the crowd (and slept on their couches while touring). And when she left her record label to strike out on her own, she asked her fans to support her in making an album, leading to the world's most successful music Kickstarter.Even while Amanda is both celebrated and attacked for her fearlessness in asking for help, she finds that there are important things she cannot ask for-as a musician, as a friend, and as a wife. She learns that she isn't alone in this, that so many people are afraid to ask for help, and it paralyzes their lives and relationships. In this groundbreaking book, she explores these barriers in her own life and in the lives of those around her,...

A DERELICT village eye-sore has been spruced up and painted blue – ready to become home to the local bobby.
The closure of Freckleton police station left Warton's neighbourhood policing team without a place to drop in for a brew –but now Warton Parish Council and the Village Hall Committee have stepped in with the ideal solution.
They have taken over the empty Lytham Road library building, given it a lick of paint, and are set to create a base for officers to pop in and hold PACT meetings with the local community.
Coun Julie Brickles said: "The building was closed by Lancashire County Council as a library and the village hall trustees took over the lease, but they have been struggling for the last five years to know what to do with it because it's so small.
"Then we spoke to the police and realised we had a fantastic use for it.
"We've done it up and painted it blue and now are just waiting to do the inside, although the police are already using it."
Coun Brickles stressed the former library is not a police station, but said: "It is just for the police to use the facilities there and hold community PACT meetings, but they have already had lots of visitors.
"The PCSO has basically said if he is there and there's a knock it will be answered, but it isn't a police station."
It is hoped other rural villages may follow Warton's example, which Fylde Inspector Keith Ogle described as "fantastic".
He said: "They have provided a facility for my neighbourhood policing team to hold meetings and surgeries right in the middle of the town and it just shows how committed they are to ensuring police remains at the heart of the community. It's fantastic."

Ekaterina Rybolovleva $88 Million Apartment
December 21, 2011 by staff
Ekaterina Rybolovleva $88 Million Apartment, Ekaterina Rybolovleva, the 22-year-old socialite daughter of Russian billionaire Dmitriy Rybolovlev, has purchased a New York apartment at 15 Central Park West for an astonishing $88 million.
The 6,744-sq-ft property was first listed by Citigroup chairman Sandy Weill in November, who promised to donate the proceeds of the sale to charity. He didn't have to wait long and Ekaterina immediately snapped up the apartment despite currently studying at an undisclosed university – she is planning to stay in her new home "when visiting New York", according to Forbes.
A source close to the sale says she paid the full asking price of $88 million, setting a new record for the highest individual transaction in New York City history. The apartment itself boasts 10 rooms, including 4 bedrooms, a wraparound terrace and two wood burning fireplaces. Real estate boss Jonathan Miller told said, "This sale is an outlier.
It works out to be about $13,000 per sq. foot, the highest on record, for anything, that has ever occurred". The transaction smashes the previous property record, set by investor Christopher Flowers who paid $53 million for a townhouse at 4 east 75th Street – however, he later resold the property for just $36 million.

Renowned hypnotherapist Joseph Pond on how to train your wandering mind and be calm
Still, he couldn't sit up, run, or talk. In fact, by any measurable standard of success and excellence, Ofsted would certainly have given him a low score.
And yet, he couldn't do anything wrong either. He was — and is — perfect.
This is difficult for beginning practitioners of mindfulness to accept sometimes, since it seems so difficult to quiet the mind.
"I must be doing something wrong, because my thoughts are all over the place," people sometimes say to me.
This is where equanimity comes in. Equanimity is a key concept in mindfulness that has the power to transform your life.
Equanimity means calmness, kind benevolence and non-judgemental. I explain to my clients that the human mind is always going to be active. While meditating, your brain will make noise. After all, having thoughts and feelings simply means that you are alive. The key is to calmly accept that the mind wanders. Your job is to not feed the emotions that arise while practicing mindfulness. Equanimity is like a big sign at the zoo, saying: "Don't feed the monkeys."
Neither identify with your thoughts, nor judge them. When you realise that you have boarded a train of thought, just bring your attention back to the breath with equanimity.
In fact, the difference between us and a mindfulness master is not that the master's mind doesn't wander, it's the degree of equanimity with which one allows thoughts to ebb and flow.
Eventually, you'll develop an impartial "observer" which is separate from one's mental meanderings. This observer will notice that the mind tends to run in habitual grooves and that certain feelings, thoughts and ideas keep recurring as a mostly unconscious pattern that makes you, "you".
Hypnotists call this dual awareness "conscious-unconscious dissociation". The ability to consciously focus on unconscious processes is one of the many, many points of similarity between mindfulness and hypnosis. Applying equanimity to your daily practice strengthens the equanimity "muscle", thus making it easier to use when you need it. As a side benefit to doing mindfulness, you might just find yourself becoming less sad or angry, and more calm and non-judgemental in general.
So, take it easy on your wandering mind. Like a child, it can't really do anything wrong.

text: I know it has been discussed to death on here but seeing the swirling, fighting Cy logo so often over xmas time brought this subject up to me again... Why did ISU not provide the fighting Cy as a choice for the logo among the three finalist? It certainly is unique in relation to ISU and a pretty damn cool looking logo. I'm biased as I'm not a fan of the current logo at all...it is plain and does not distinguish Iowa State from other schools with the ISU acronym. Thoughts?

Gibson USA 2017 Guitars
It's that time of the year again, the new Gibson USA 2017 range of guitars is upon us. There are a few interesting tweaks and changes this year, but seemingly nothing too drastic! It looks as though there will be plenty to please both those who want a traditionally styled guitar that has been perfected over the years, as well as those after something with a few modern performance adjustments. Here's the lowdown on what to expect from the 2017 range.
General Talking Points
- Playability tweaks, not big change: 2017 looks to be the year of minor tweaks to Gibson guitars to aid playability as opposed to big changes. There are new, modern body carves, internal weight relief, slim taper necks and rolled edges, but nothing too drastic!
- There's choice: Both the "traditional" range and "high performance" range of the core USA models remain present in 2017, just as in 2016. Meaning if you want the classic design that Gibson have spent years perfecting, you're covered! Or, if you are after truly high-performance features and modern technology, then you are covered too!
- Different finishes: There are a couple of different finishes that have instantly caught our eye this year; check out the Blueberry Burst LP Standard, the Green Ocean Burst LP Classic or the Cherry Burst SG Standard.
- In Stock & Available to Buy Now: We have a variety of models available to buy now with more models coming into stock on a weekly basis. If the model you're after isn't in stock then fear not, you can still place a special order and we'll order in the guitar especially for you.
- Lefties: Gibson will be catering for lefties this year, although it looks as though we won't be able to get hold of those until later on and have no definite details as of exactly what will be available yet.
The Gibson 2017 Les Paul Classic T Ocean Green Burst
Gibson 2017 Traditional Range
As expected, the traditional range will feature the usual round up of Les Pauls: Standard, Traditional, and Studio, as well as the Classic. Gibson have also introduced a new Firebird Studio, featuring full fat 496R/T pickups, as opposed to the mini-humbuckers found on the regular version.
The Gibson 2017 Firebird Studio T Satin Vintage Sunburst
Of course, the SG Standard, Explorer and Flying V all feature once again, with the latter also packing a pair of Dirty Fingers pickups for some serious distortion and sustain. The Les Paul and SG faded versions also make a welcome return in 2017, with some slight adjustments whilst remaining affordable. Not to forget the Les Paul Studio, a true workhorse of a guitar, this time featuring Gibson's super-modern weight relief, making the guitar even more comfortable to gig whilst sacrificing none of its tone.
Gibson have also revamped the EB Bass this year, with both 4-string and 5-string versions available in Vintage Sunburst and Natural Satin finishes. They feature the Babicz full contact bridge to provide great resonance and sustain, as well as lightweight swamp ash body that is carved to feel much comfier to play.
The Gibson 2017 SG Standard T Cherry Burst
The LP Standard, Traditional, Classic, and Studio, as well as the Firebird, SG Standard, Explorer and Flying V - all ship with a classic Gibson brown hardshell case, a premium leather strap, a Gibson multi-tool and a polishing cloth.
The LP Tribute, LP Faded, SG Faded, Firebird Studio and the EB Bass all come with a padded gig bag, strap and polishing cloth.
Gibson 2017 High Performance Range
Once again it seems the 2017 range of Gibson HP guitars will prove to be ridiculously-gorgeous and brilliantly-versatile beasts. The flagship HP Les Paul Standard will feature an AAAA flamed maple top, and if lasts years choices were anything to go by, then no doubt this years will be just as stunning.
The Gibson 2017 Les Paul Standard HP Bluerberry Burst
All models will feature new G-Force tuners with new, improved gears, as well as an adjustable titanium zero-fret nut with a locking feature. Generally the hardware has been upgraded, giving it the full premium treatment, replacing Zamac with Titanium in places and now featuring chrome knobs and truss rod covers. The HP guitars also all have genuine mother-of-pearl inlays. Once again the HP models all feature that super-smooth, fast-access heel to help you comfortably reach those higher notes as well as upgraded pickups for higher outputs; some models featuring over 150 reversible rewiring options.
Apart from the Firebird Studio HP, all the high performance range of guitars come with a hard-shell case, premium leather strap, Gibson multi-tool and a polishing cloth. The LP Classic, Traditional and Standard all ship with that fantastic bullet-proof-looking aluminium case, so no need to worry about your guitar being damaged in transit!
See the full range of Gibson 2017 below, available to purchase in store or online today!

The collection of images will tour six Hotel Indigo properties across the UK from 25 March – 6 May, and is open for both hotel guests and members of the public to enjoy for free. The photographs will also be included in the prestigious 2014 Sony World Photography Awards Exhibition at Somerset House, London, from 1-18 May.
As IHG's boutique brand, every Hotel Indigo property is designed to reflect the local neighbourhood. From the building design to the hotel's artwork and locally inspired menus, every Hotel Indigo is unique to its surroundings so no two hotels are the same. With a vision to encourage people to explore the local neighbourhood when travelling, art, design and exploration are key to Hotel Indigo. Last year Hotel Indigo partnered with WPO to challenge students from eight of the UK's leading photography schools and universities to submit a series of photographs capturing the essence of their local Hotel Indigo's surrounding area. One student's work from each university was shortlisted and the resulting images, which are showcased in the touring exhibition, range from shots of iconic monuments to abstract interpretations of the area's local history.
The competition's overall winner was Jemma Wilcock from the Manchester School of Art, Manchester Metropolitan University. Her series of work, inspired by Hotel Indigo Liverpool's neighbourhood story, highlights the cotton trading heritage of the city as well as the significance of art in its cosmopolitan character.
In addition to having her work showcased as part of the touring exhibition and at WPO's exhibition at Somerset House, Jemma has been commissioned by Hotel Indigo to shoot as an official photographer for Hotel Indigo Rome – St. George, one of the brand's latest hotel openings.
Jemma said: "It will be a great moment in my career to see my work on display at hotels across the UK and at Somerset House, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to showcase on such a large scale. Working to capture the new Hotel Indigo Rome – St. George will take my work to an international level. In the midst of the stunning architecture and historical prestige of Italy's capital of culture, I am sure to find inspiration for the next project."
Tom Rowntree, Vice President Brand Management Luxury & Upscale Brands, Europe, IHG said: "Jemma's conceptual photographs really captured the essence of Liverpool, both past and present. Everything about the hotel itself is inspired by its neighbourhood, from the nods to cotton trading in our décor to the food and drinks we serve in our restaurant, and so it's a fantastic extension of this to be able to share the exhibition with our guests and local community.
"We're really pleased that both guests and local residents in all our cities will have the opportunity to see their neighbourhood brought to life through the creative work of our finalists."
Scott Gray, Managing Director, WPO said: "Nurturing emerging photographic talent is at the heart of the World Photography Organisation, and we're so excited that along with Hotel Indigo we can give the student community such a great platform to share its best work. We hope the collection of neighbourhood stories will delight a whole new audience, and encourage everyone to go and be inspired."

Tony Blair: Making Government Work Will Transform Africa (Event Video)
During Tony Blair's time as UK Prime Minister, Africa was at the heart of his foreign policy - from the Commission for Africa and the Gleneagles Summit to the military intervention that brought an end to the civil war in Sierra Leone. Since leaving office he has renewed his commitment to Africa's development by creating the Africa Governance Initiative (AGI), of which he now acts as Patron.
The speech sets out Mr. Blair's vision for a new partnership with Africa, drawing on his years of experience in office and his first-hand work with the Governments of Sierra Leone, Rwanda and Liberia since leaving Downing Street in 2007. It coincides with the launch of a pamphlet setting out why Mr. Blair believes that Africa has the potential to be to the first half of this century what Asia was to the second half of the last, and why developed countries need to do more to support the African leaders who are making this transformation possible.
The Rt. Hon. Tony Blair
Former UK Prime Minister and Patron of the Africa Governance Initiative
Chaired by
Nancy Birdsall
President, Center for Global Development

AT first i was disappointed because there was a little oil on the base between the pump and motor.I was afraid the seal would leak,but after running 10 tanks of gas thru it it seems fine.Pumps runs for couple hours or more on tank.Excellent buy.Also other places offer similar pump for similar price but no hoses or filter. Happy with the purchase and very quick shipping form AP electric.

GAIA PORTAL: Stations of Light are Established
Stations of Light are Established
by ÉirePort
Stations of Light are established over and around Gaia to enable smoother transitions for humans to Hue-mans, in this period following seasonal change.
Locations of Stations of Light are flexible and move as required. Those called within to steward such will feel the pull... strongly.
We of ÉirePort station are monitoring planetary consciousness levels as Light levels upon and within Gaia increase. The Stations of Light stewardship crews will be called to take appropriate steps to bridge discontinuities as they are noted.

Busking The System Trailer (2011)
19 August 2011 Factual, Music 90 mins
Busking The System focuses in on the very different lives of several subway musicians in New York City. We follow three fresh-faced musicians from Kansas City, MO, Seattle, WA and Cleveland, OH on their journey to see if they can make it in the New York subway and launch their career. Will they discover success or be obscured in failure? Another musician already in New York is seen actually making a name for himself as a subway performer. There is also the familiar darker story of a man who plays strictly as a means for survival. From inspiring idealism to heartbreaking reality, Busking the System finally puts a spotlight on the musicians that make up the sounds of the underground.
Watch the official Busking The System 2011 trailer in HD below or find more Busking The System videos on Vidimovie.

We'll See
I give every new title three issues before I make the decision whether to pull or not to pull. "Picky Sicky" left me on the fence. As a satirical story removed from continuity, I enjoyed Harley's well-written quest to find a new artist (that she's not looking for a new writer seems appropriate for a character, who, since becoming part of the New 52, has appealed to superficial desires). It was fun. However, I also felt a little bit of dread. Is this metafictional erosion of the fourth wall, a la Deadpool and She-Hulk, going to be the direction for her new book? I hope not. I want original--not derivative--Harley stories. This story paid homage to Harley's evolution from Batman: The Animated Series to the present, which gave me a new appreciation for the New 52 version, nonetheless, corset-wearing turboslut Harley is still there, and this book has miles to go to scourge that image from my mind and re-establish Harley as the true "Clown Princess of Crime." Two more issues. Two more before I make the decision to fully commit to this book as a fan. This book IS moving fast, so to make that informed decision for yourself, I'd recommend grabbing a copy as soon as you can.

Lori Hynson is a Recovering SuperGalaholic who finally learned that God's acceptance of her wasn't based on her perfection or her performance according to what the world expected of her.
The destructive condition of women who know they can do anything, but feel the pressure to do everything!
Fueled by her passion to inspire women who struggle to be all things to all people, Lori shares her Secrets of a Recovering SuperGal through the Word of God.
Find the latest news & deals for Lori's book "SuperGal vs. GOD" & learn about upcoming titles.
If you're anything like me, and I think you probably are since you landed here on my website, you're always busy! Stressed! Running yourself ragged. We women spend all of our time doing. Striving. Trying. Never saying "no." Jobs, homes, kids, husbands, parents, friends, church, school…
Do you try to find your own solutions to life's problems, depending on yourself alone? Do you try to control your circumstances out of fear? Live for the approval of someone else, sacrificing yourself to be a people pleaser?
Are you trying to live up to the world's idea of an admirable woman?
Some SuperGals race around trying to achieve, while others are secret SuperGals—struggling to find a way to survive today. But our pain is the same.
There's a name for our burden, our weariness—The SuperGal Syndrome. What is it? What harm does it cause? And, how can we be healed?
Spending every day in the throes of the SuperGal Syndrome isn't what Jesus had in mind when he said, "I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows)."
Jesus wasn't talking about a life too full of stuff to do, or a life of struggle. Living with the SuperGal Syndrome isn't living at all—it's merely surviving.
God has shown me that we don't need to stay bound by the chains of pride, guilt, perfectionism, and countless others that we have wrapped around ourselves.
Together we will learn to recognize, acknowledge, accept and escape our spiritual prisons.
Together we will find the path to God's peace. And His joy. No matter our circumstances.
The cure is right here. In God's Word. Hidden in plain sight. It's been there all along.
I'm looking forward to sharing, studying and walking with you as we help one another along the road to SuperGal Recovery!
Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me,
for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."
~Matthew 11:28-30
Lori Hynson is a speaker, author, Bible teacher, group leader, and singer. She's a wife, mother, Nana and retired business owner. She and her husband have five grown children and eleven grandchildren, and live in Pennsylvania with their cat, Wednesday.
Hi friends,
I will be launching a new, ongoing discussion group/Bible study at my home beginning in September. We will be taking a look at the many facets of the SuperGal Syndrome—the good, the bad, and the ugly—as well as the busy, burdened lives of women in the 21st century.
We will learn what Scripture has to say about being a SuperGal, and finding the cures for the SuperGal Syndrome. This will be an interactive group, with a goal to encourage and support one another, and discover together how to become the women God created us to be, and not to simply assume the roles and identities placed on us by today's culture.
Although we will begin as an in-person group, we may expand to an online study group in the future.
The first meeting is scheduled for Monday, September 19th at 7PM. We tried to schedule something sooner but we couldn't because, well, you know, we're SuperGals!!
If you are interested, please message me, or write to me at [email protected] If you are not interested, but may know someone who is, please pass my information along to them.
We are so excited to begin this new road to friendship and God's Word!

Tourists – B-2
This is the visa category by which most Canadians enter the United States, for purposes of pleasure such as touring, visiting friends or family or sightseeing.
There must be demonstrated intent to visit the United States on a temporary basis for pleasure. Applicants must be a citizen of a visa-exempt country (i.e. Canada or a visa waiver country), or else obtain a B-2 Visitor's Visa in advance.
This is a speedy process by which a person can gain entry to the United States for non-business, pleasure purposes. A person cannot have permanent intent to reside in the United States or do business in the United States under this category.
Those in possession of a valid Visitor's Visa or those who are citizens of visa-exempt countries (i.e. Canada and visa waiver countries) can apply for entry at a U.S. port-of-entry, which includes airports with U.S. pre-flight inspection. All Canadian permanent residents who are not citizens of visa waiver countries are required to apply for a B-2 Visa in advance at a U.S. Consulate or Embassy. Appointments are required.
Please note Canadians entering the U.S. by air must present a valid Canadian passport. If you enter by land or water after January 31, 2008, you must be prepared to present either a valid Canadian Passport or a government issued photo ID (such as a driver's license) and a birth certificate or other proof of citizenship. Persons 18 years and younger need only present a birth certificate or other proof of citizenship. Canadian citizens do not require a visa to visit the United States for periods of less than 180 days.
We can assist you in preparing to enter the United States as a visitor at a port-of-entry/pre-flight inspection or assist you in preparing an application to be filed at a Consulate. We can also accompany you for a consular interview in relation to a B-2 Visa.
Speak to an immigration professional at Mamann, Sandaluk & Kingwell LLP about your US business immigration needs, and they can help you develop a customized immigration strategy tailored for your specific circumstances and US visa needs!

Presidents' Day
Funny how a holiday originally intending to honor our first president has become synonymous with 3 day sales and week long vacations from school. For me it's permission to panic for the first time of the new calendar year. There's no school and it's not just for one day – it's for a whole bloomin' week!!!
Parents everywhere know what I'm talking about. It's not that your not happy to have Sally, Jim or Bobby home with you it's just all that it encompasses. For some parents it encompasses arranging for child care. Others may be fortunate to take the week off of work and go off on vacation. I'm guessing there are a whole bunch of you who are like me however who are preparing to panic. Yup it's the panicky group which has to have a week's worth of ideas and activities ready to answer the "Mom, I'm bored" and "Mom, there's nothing to do" pleas coming from our charming offspring. It's times like these where I send up an apology to my mother for all the crap I gave her
I plan for a different reason. I plan because if you take my kid who needs structure and pull her OUT of that structure for an entire week, what might have been "fun" on Monday will be HELL by Friday. It is for this reason that I start planning now so that I have a pretty good schedule in place by Monday for the week ahead. I try to some degree follow the schedule she'd follow at school but it's not entirely realistic. Katherine isn't any more interested in working on her math on her week off than I am but we do try to do "x" amount of time for this activity and "y" amount of time for lunch and on Wednesday we go into the community like she would at school and work on skills there.
For us, what seems to have been most important is to give Katherine visuals – yup there it is again – visuals. As with most things 30-45 minute increments work well for us. Some of our schedule is dictated nowadays by the fact that afternoons require us to accommodate Donovan's nap schedule. Even that works to our advantage however. Katherine hates to admit when she's worn out so we can blame needing quiet time/rest time on the fact that Donovan needs it and needs us to be quiet. (Most days, the fact is that MOM needs the rest!!)
Since I don't want to spend a small fortune to make it through the week either, I try to come up with some ideas of things we can do at home or in the community that cater to interests of Katherine's (but won't bore the heck out of her brother) Maybe these are ideas you can use….maybe you have some ideas we can use. Give us some ideas of things you do to entertain during winter break.
- Making a special breakfast instead of cereal (eggs, pancakes, french toast)
- Playdoh/clay creations
- "obstacle" courses in the backyard
- Going out to "visit" the horses
- Playground trip
- Nature walk through the neighborhood
- Create a book – come up with a story, illustrate it, write/type it, put it together on construction paper and punch holes in the construction paper and tie the "book together
- Make homemade cards in advance for birthdays, anniversaries, holidays for grandparents, aunts, uncles etc.
- Have an indoor picnic
- Movie afternoon – popcorn and a dvd in the living room
- Choose a dinner and help mom make it
- Read a longer book – Narnia series or other chapter books
Your ideas?

If it wasn't obvious from the Pike Place Market post last week, I spent Christmas at home in the Seattle area. Now that I'm sitting here listening to Blind Willie McTell, a CD (yes, they still exist) I received as a Christmas present, it's time to pull out the holiday photos. The picture below represents one of the more unexpected gifts I received this year. Anyone familiar with the move "A Christmas Story" will immediately recognize the controversial Italian leg lamp. It's a major award! The lamp must be Italian because the crate was marked "fragile"; mispronounced in pseudo-Italian as "frah-gee-lay". Fun, and a movie reference to boot.
On the opposite end of the spectrum is my sister's most entertaining gift - "Haiku for the Single Girl." The haiku shown below gave us all a crack up, and not just because of the timely Muppet's reference.
Sometimes I wonder which ornaments end up on the tree because my mom likes them and which ones remain because she feels guilty throwing them away. I get the soldier and carousel horse for the most part, but Darth Vader? I know I went through the early 80's Star Wars phase, but mom it's OK to "forget" to hang the tribute to George Lucas' license agreement with the signature disco dance floor that lights up. I won't notice it missing... swear.
As a young kid I made the Christmas alligator shown below. Now that I look at it I'm not sure if the can pull tabs were from soda pop or beer... hmmmm. Did the grown ups have just a little too much fun providing the art supplies from the Rainier Brewery?! I'll never know. At least the alligator's legs have glitter, which makes the ornament semi-legit for Christmas.
Christmas also provided a chance to catch up with old friends. Jake, my best friend from high school, and his wife Emily were in town to visit with Jake's relatives. The Diner, you may ask? Why... "Jake's" of course. Yes, I met Jake at a diner named Jake's - it was fate. The waitresses, all well into their late 50's, had the hair of an 80's rocker girl from a Whitesnake video. The only bigger hair I've seen is on the 80's hair of the band Cinderella! The simple cinnamon roll that I ordered came with about 3/4's cup of frosting. I had to puddle the frosting to the side to actually see, much less eat the roll! Guess I should have taken a photo... oh well.
At the end of every vacation is a family goodbye. My mom and I aren't much for being in front of the camera, so this was all I could think of to take as my mom drove away. Sometimes a photo is intentional and sometimes a photo just has an intent. I like to think this rather dull photo has the intent of a family goodbye. At least a little humor is thrown in on the license plate of the red car at the right.
The last stop on my vacation was Capitol Hill at the Harvard Exit theater to see "The Artist", which I can safely recommend. After watching "Senna" (recommended), "Bride Flight" (recommended), "Mission Impossible" (surprisingly good because of Simon Pegg), and "The Girl Who Played with Fire (meh), I guess I was ready for more. The coffee shop was waiting for us afterward, which resulted in the pictures below. It was funny because our window seats at the coffee shop featured two bookshops that book-ended a gay men's underwear store - not totally surprising for the Capitol Hill neighborhood. So our views included people calmly browsing the bookstores and oiled up mostly naked men modelling underwear on a flashy big screen TV in the underwear shop.
Next week - back to the pretty girl models. Must... Erase... Men's... Underwear... Store... From Memory...
