SOURCE Sutter Health
They're the Only Hospitals in Sacramento Area Honored as 100 Top Hospitals®
SACRAMENTO, Calif., Feb. 26, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento and Sutter Davis Hospital today were named two of the nation's 100 Top Hospitals® by Truven Health Analytics, formerly the health-care business of Thomson Reuters. The two Sutter hospitals were the only winners of the 100 Top Hospitals® award in the Sacramento region.
Truven Health Analytics is a leading provider of information and solutions to improve the cost and quality of health care. The 100 Top Hospitals® study uses objective research and independent public data to recognize the best U.S. hospitals. The study evaluates performance in 10 areas: mortality; medical complications; patient safety; average patient stay; expenses; profitability; patient satisfaction; adherence to clinical standards of care; post-discharge mortality; and readmission rates for acute myocardial infarction (heart attack), heart failure and pneumonia.
The study has been conducted annually since 1993. This is the third time Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento has been recognized with this honor, and the fourth time and third year in a row that Sutter Davis Hospital received the award. Last year, Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento was also named one of the nation's 50 Top Cardiovascular Hospitals by Truven.
"We are honored that Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento was chosen as one of the nation's top hospitals," said Carrie Owen Plietz, CEO of Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento. "We continually strive for excellence in quality care for all of our patients and the entire Sacramento region, and this award recognizes the exceptional, compassionate health care that our staff and physicians deliver."
"This renowned recognition is another acknowledgement of our commitment to safer patient care and excellent patient satisfaction," said Sutter Davis Hospital Chief Executive Officer Janet Wagner. "We're proud to receive this recognition for three consecutive years, because this shows that we are continually striving to improve our services for our patients and the community as a whole."
To conduct the 100 Top Hospitals study, Truven Health researchers evaluated 2,922 short-term, acute care, non-federal hospitals. They used public information - Medicare cost reports, Medicare Provider Analysis and Review (MedPAR) data, and core measures and patient satisfaction data from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Hospital Compare website. Hospitals do not apply, and winners do not pay to market this honor.
The winning hospitals were announced in this week's edition of Modern Healthcare magazine.
"The winners of the 100 Top Hospitals award have driven the national benchmarks higher every year for 20 years," said Jean Chenoweth, senior vice president at Truven Health Analytics. "This year's winners have brought even higher value to their local communities – better quality, higher efficiency and high patient perceptions of care, while confronting the challenges of massive industry-wide transformation to implement health-care reform."
If all Medicare inpatients received the same level of care as those treated in the award-winning facilities:
And if the same standards were applied to all inpatients, the impact would be even greater.
More information on this study and other 100 Top Hospitals research is available at www.100tophospitals.com.
Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento and Sutter Davis Hospital are part of Sutter Health, a not-for-profit, community-based health network located throughout Northern California.
Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento is a regional center for high-level medical care and includes two acute-care hospitals – Sutter General and Sutter Memorial – and a psychiatric hospital, Sutter Center for Psychiatry. It is currently constructing a new Women's and Children's Center at its midtown Sacramento campus that will open in 2014.

Sziget Festival
Proud winner of the "Best European Major Festival" award
Sziget Festival is one of the biggest multicultural events of Europe, starting in 1993 and already celebrating its 21st edition. The festival attracts almost 400 000 fans from over 70 countries to a beautiful island in the heart of Budapest, providing a complete festival-holiday experience with non-stop party, great live concerts, a widely international community and all the touristic features the city has to offer.
Sziget is many festivals in one, a week long non-stop event with approx. 60 program venues and around 200 programs daily. Performing bands range from the biggest names of the international pop/rock scene to stars of world and electronic music, but you will also find metal, folk, jazz, blues, alternative and even classical tunes, while you are wondering around the huge festival area.
Sziget is not just about music, as it offers several other cultural programs, like theatre, circus, or exhibitions. This is the only big festival where you will find a Roma tent and even a gay-lesbian venue. And we shouldn't forget about the fact that the festival is in the middle of Budapest, a touristic city with a lively cultural scene, beautiful historic buildings, Turkish spas and special 'ruin pubs'.
Travel options to Sziget include all possible methods, so you can come by bus, train, airplane, car, or even boat. Accommodation is also very easy to choose. Many of the fans will stay at the festival area in tents or caravans, but if you are not the camper type, you will find a huge number of hotels and hostels nearby.
The 2012 live coverage of the festival (hosted by YouTube) had a massive following of approx. 5 million viewers.

Wright was a redshirt junior in 2012 and graduated from Louisville in December. He has one year of eligibility remaining and needed to enroll in graduate school classes at Louisville to be eligible for another season. There had been questions previously as to whether he would return to play for Louisville next season.
Last season, Wright led the Cardinals with 824 yards rushing.

Hazy Ikat Stripe Side-Shirred Hipster Bikini Bottoms
Nice but Preferred the Side Ring Bottoms
Love this swim suit! These bottoms are very comfortable but I exchanged them for the side ring bottoms as I liked the detail better. If you are looking for a bit more conservative coverage, I would go with the side-shirred style but if you're feeling daring, choose the bottms with the side rings; they are lower cut and very sexy but still provide just enough coverage.
April 23, 2013
Comfortable coverage
This bottom fits very good and is comfortable. You can move around and be active without fear. However, you must pre-wash this item at least twice (wash and let dry; repeat) before wearing. Otherwise, the color will transfer to other clothing or seat cushions the first time it gets wet.

This past week, my family and I ventured off to Niagara Falls with the kids. We stayed in a beautiful hotel and set out to see one of nature's wonders.
We stayed on the "American side" in spite of everyone's advice to see it from the Canadian side because it was "so much better." I am happy to report that it was simply majestic and beautiful right here from the good ol' USA. The rapids along the canal that lead to the falls were a violent rush of water that was just as breathtaking as they were deadly. We walked along the canal to the falls to see the enormous rush of water leap over the falls into a pool of the most beautiful turquoise colored water I'd ever seen outside of Miami Beach or the Caribbean.
My son, Colin, ever the cautious one, and all of 9 years old observed quietly, staying very close to us, fully understanding the dangers that came with that rushing water. I could see the anxiety come over him as he began to scratch uncontrollably (a nervous tendency) so I reached for his hand and said, "Amazing isn't it?" I wore a smile that I hoped would reassure him that he was safe.
My husband, understanding that his wife too is petrified of water (let alone rapids and waterfalls), asked if I wanted to take the kids on the Maid of the Mist. This ferry would take us close to the waterfalls, where we could view this miracle from the midst of it all. My son, blessed with bionic ears, heard my husband's whispered question and squeezed my hand, quickly objecting with a firm "Mom, I don't want to go." We were a split group, three (including our houseguest from France) who wanted to go, and two who were afraid to go.
We decided to skip it and head back to the hotel. The kids went off into the swimming pool as I sat thinking about all the things I missed out on in my 40 years of life because I was afraid to try. I realized that I didn't want that for my kids. My daughter is pretty adventurous, but my son leads by fear. The best way to help him to conquer his fears was to conquer my own (lead by example), and what better way to do this, than as a team on this trip!
The next morning we hung out by the pool again, had lunch and then set off back to Niagara Falls, with my plan to board the Maid of the Mist kept secret. Once there, I asked my husband to go off and purchase our tickets. As I looked Colin in the eye, I said, "We are doing this. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity, people do it everyday and they all come off that boat with a smile on their face, and so will we!" Colin stared at me with those flannel-colored blue eyes and whispered "Aren't you scared, Mom?" I explained that I was nervous, but sometimes that is part of the fun. I said let's just have faith and end the day, rest knowing we did something we thought we'd never do.
The view of the Falls from the Maid of the Mist was astonishing. I admit my heart was beating out of my chest as the boat fought to stay put in those aggressive waters, however the magnificent sights that our eyes were taking in overshadowed any fears that were within. We each stood silent observing the falls. I glanced at my son and said "What do you think?: He replied, "It's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen."
While I trust that he will grow into a successful man, who I hope travels the world to see more beautiful sights, I am happy that I was part of this one and proud that I was able to conquer a fear with one of the greatest loves of my life, my son. My hope is that you too, will consider forcing your fears to take a back seat, and live your life to the fullest. One challenge at a time.

Good for you! Beautifully written too. You did a great thing there for you and for your son. Ispirational as always. A nice change of pace from all the recent negativity posted here on the Patch.
1:01 pm on Monday, August 13, 2012
I visited the Falls myself two weeks ago. It is an overwhelming sight I think everyone should see (I also saw them from the U.S. side) Love your description of it all, sums it up nicely.
1:08 pm on Monday, August 13, 2012
I too have fears. Especially of the Falls. I went with my family when I was about 9 or 10. We did the walkway and I slipped and the guide grabbed me. I don't know if this is true or not, but I thought I was going to fall off and die. My sister has been fighting her fear of heights and is winning. This fear was installed by our mother. I found myself doing it to my own children, but they are not afraid of anything. I'm still afraid of bridges and heights. But I want to go back to the Falls and see them again as an adult. Your story has inspired me. Thank you so much for your inspirational story.

Thanks everyone. @Kyle... I am learning (the older I get) that most fears are learned from our mothers. I find this both funny and disturbing, funny because I am a mom and I find myself sometimes screaming "WATCH OUT" when there is nothing more than a soda can falling out of a fridge, yet you'd think the entire fridge was falling over with the way I screamed. And disturbing because I hate to think that I was the cause of anyone's fears or discomfort. I try to catch myself and seize these moments to redeem myself. ;) Definately go check out the falls and dare I say, board the Maid of the Mist, it's breathtaking.

Marti: Other fears are definitely acquired from experience. I almost drowned when I was 6 years old. I was saved by a Baptist minister, so later when I joined a Baptist church I figured I'd already been through the total immersion. In any event, the feeling of sinking into the pond left me with a fear of heights. It's been easier to conquer the fear of water (by swimming and knowing to float on my back if I'm in trouble) than the fear of falling from heights.

Carol I completely agree. last summer I went to miami beach and actually managed to go into the ocean waist deep which is something I never do.. I'm not a swimmer and I have a fear of sharks. here I was so proud of myself, and don't you know two sand sharks swim by me and my best friend. I swore the universe was making fun of me, as I broke every rule ran out of the water screaming "SHARKS!!!"(I would later notice that no one else was alarmed because they are accustomed to seeing them). So now the fear of the ocean is stronger than ever! I have decided that next year I will go back to miami beach and go back into that water.. I don't know if it'll be waist deep, but I'll try which is all anyone can do.

15 years ago I had a similar situation. I decided to take the ride over the Grand Canyon with my son. As time grew nearer, I began to panic.It was a small helicopter that only had 4 seats. I decided to get in despite my anxiety. It was a highlight of that vacation.

I'm sorry to read about your fear. It is not one that can not be easely fixed. One thing that could help you is to ask to speak to someone in your company that has knowledge of the future of the bussiness. Tell the person of your concern and see if they can help take the fear away for at least a year or two. If they can't give you any kind of answer to ease your fear, then seek help from a councelor. They will ease your fear and the price is the same as seeing a eye doctor. Good Luck.

Mine is don't lend gear.
Mrs HnR and I were saddened by the news of a young family who were killed by drunk driver this new year's eve. That guy will, no doubt, do a long stretch and have to live with what he did for a long time.
How about it, blondandfun? 12 hours from bottle to throttle.
The Korova milkbar sold milk-plus, milk plus vellocet or synthemesc or drencrom, which is what we were drinking. This would sharpen you up and make you ready for a bit of the old ultra-violence.
Mine would rather be: kick your @$$ and shoot more videos with your gear.
I've invested quite a lot in my gear recently, so I'd like to put it to use and make more videos, earning more experience and perfecting my skills while improving my work. I don't think we improved a lot in our last video, but Charlie and I had fun shooting it. I had fun shooting with green screen for the first time, I've played a lot with my work lights and I did a quick sessions of dialog recording yesterday. Btw, I've been impressed ending up doing it with the NTG-2 for dialog, indoor and sat at my computer. It really gave nice results. The sound was cleaner than the ATM-650 and the MB4K (mainly due to the ambient noise from the computer) because of the excellent off-axis rejection of the NTG-2.
That being said, I'm checking with Charlie to take more time and working on a "more ambitious" project, something like 20-30 minutes short for the next year. Just talking about the possibilities at the moment.
Unfortunately not. It was a spur of the moment thing and I doubt it'll fit any theme or even have it edited by the deadline. I'm not particularly proud of it anyway >.>. I'll be back in one of the contests! Eventually!
Hopefully in a week or less! It will be bad though lol.
Rang in the New Year in style here: absinthe from a bygone era (Pernod Fils Tarragona, circa 1950s).
Happy New Year to all of you, and best wishes!
I spent the past 3 weeks with my family overseas, where the world is simpler and access to the Internet is not quasi-mandatory.
Erik, maybe this will be the year that I will stop being an absinthe virgin. I have all the information I need.
I understand. Just six days after reading this, on last night's 10PM local news a short report on an accident near Menard (an hour's drive from San Angelo) described an SUV drifting across the line and colliding head on with another vehicle (the driver of this other vehicle tried desperately to evade but had no chance). The report named the two killed in the that other vehicle and it hit me in the pit of the stomach.
I photographed their wedding in the very early 1980's, never met them until the actual wedding (her Mom made the arrangements) and never saw them again (Mom picked up the album for them) until years later. I was in Menard at the high school, gear set up on the school auditorium stage and was headed to the principle's office to let him know I was ready to start photographing his seniors. Rounded a corner and near collided with David (the Groom), I surprised him by greeting him by name and he escorted me to the office.
He and Connie (the Bride) had lunch together with me in the school cafeteria and I had fun getting to know them more than I had a chance to at the wedding. After that I saw them each year I came down to Menard to do the senior class portraits. They were dedicated teachers and had a ball serving their community in that capacity. The last time I saw David I was on my way to San Antonio for a military re-union two years ago, I had stopped at a Menard convenience store to gas up and David stopped to run in and grab a cup of coffee to go.
We spent about a minute and headed our separate ways.
He was a tall man, had an infectious grin set in a squarish craggy face and Connie was a very sweet good natured gal. He was 69 and she 62, lives much too short and the world will be a dimmer place without them.
So far the State Troopers think fatigue might be a factor, the other driver was flown by helicopter to a hospital here in San Angelo.
Huey gives you great advice here, worth more than gold. The last thing in the world you want to have to live with is tragedy brought on by driving under any impairment be it alcohol or fatigue. You have too much to live for and so do others you pass on the road.

I am a reforming videomaking addict
Here in Helsinki, just a few days ago, a 25-year old driver killed an 11-year old girl. Hit & run, to boot. He had 2.5 parts per thousand of alcohol in his blood (that's 0.25 %), five times the legal limit...
He had been sentenced with five prior drunk-and-drive offences, the last sufficiently long ago that he had regained his drivers license. Now, there's a discussion going on in Parliament on how to prevent cases like these...

Job listings hint at near-future OS X, iOS iWork updates
05/13, 9:50pm
Updates could arrive on or soon after WWDC
Several recent Apple job listings may hint that the company is on the verge of updating both the OS X and iOS editions of iWork, reports say. Some of the listings date back as far as March; one of them, though, was posted on May 11, and specifically calls for an iWork QA tester, which could mean Apple is in the last phases of development. Another opening, dating back to May 7, asks for a "HiDP Image Specialist," tasked with bringing iWork visual designs to Retina displays.

Anonymous donations of both a vintage organ and piano are music to the ears of organizers for a Friday night auction planned during a fundraiser for the Shepherd's House homeless shelter.
"They were just donated by people in the community," Shepherd's House Executive Director Phil Goble Jr., said of the 1927 Foster & Company piano and a turn-of-the-20th-century Farrand organ.
"These are just two classic pieces of American music," Goble said Tuesday of the items that will go on the block during Friday night's event at Cross Creek Country Club. "It just gives us some unusual items that we've never had before."
The auction of the two instruments described as examples of "musical Americana" will be just one of the highlights of the annual fundraiser to benefit the homeless facility in Mount Airy.
Also, a much-anticipated "Mad Money Drawdown," offering $10,000 in cash as the top prize this year, can be won with the purchase of a ticket costing $100.
In 2012, the fundraising event at the country club raised more than $50,000 overall to support the homeless facility that is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year and has served more than 1,200 people.
Along with the drawdown and live auction, the event will include music by the band Mediocre Bad Guys, dinner, a quilt raffle and a silent auction with $1 tickets.
Doors open at 6 p.m.
Historical Instruments
In addition to the organ and piano, a 2004 Ford Taurus will be up for bidding led by an auctioneer from Rogers Realty.
"The piano and organ are exquisite pieces of American history that would be perfect additions to any home," Goble added. "The car (white with a gray interior) had just one owner who put less than 11,000 miles a year on it while keeping all the maintenance done and the interior in spectacular shape."
Other choice items to be sold are a custom mink coat from a business, a football signed by players for the Atlanta Falcons, a beach vacation and a granite countertop, among others.
More than 50 silent-auction items, donated from local vendors, also will be up for grabs. The $1 tickets for the silent auction will be sold throughout the evening. In addition, a raffle for a quilt handmade by Karen Springthorpe is planned, with tickets costing $5 each.
All proceeds will benefit the Shepherd's House.
Of all the items to be offered, Goble seemed most excited Tuesday about the organ and piano.
With Farrand Organ Co. having gone bankrupt in 1915, the organ is known to be at least 98 years old — possibly older. Instruments made by Farrand "were known to be of very good quality, and were generally of a higher grade overall," according to one Internet site consulted.
Meanwhile, the Foster & Company piano that is available was built in 1927. That company was founded in 1890 in New York City, based on information from another website. After various mergers and other moves over the years, it went out of business in the 1980s.
The serial number for the piano puts it among just 200 built by the company in 1927. No Foster & Company instruments were made after 1931, according to another source.
Contest Rules Tweaked
The annual drawdown is the most-anticipated part of Friday's gathering, though a ticket holder is not required to be present to win the $10,000.
Only 800 tickets are available for the drawdown, which will involve numbered tickets being selected from a large container during the course of the evening, and marked off a corresponding grid placed on the wall. Tension builds as tickets are eliminated and the number dwindles to a few leading to the final draw.
"We are adding an interesting twist this year," Goble said of a rules change in which the first ticket pulled will not be eliminated, but put back into the drawing. That also will be the case at other intervals during the drawdown, giving affected ticket owners an incentive to stick around.
A practice in place for previous drawdowns also will be in effect this year when the drawing reaches the nine-ticket point, involving an auction being held for a 10th one.
Tickets will be available for the rest of this week.
"They can buy them all week long and even at the event," Goble said of those interested. "They will sell the $100 drawdown tickets until we draw the first ticket."
Tickets or more information are available from Jenna Jordan at 755-6649, Claudia Bryant at 786-4200, Berta Glenn Springthorpe at 789-5033, Traci Haynes at 755-8832 or Rhonda Crossingham, 687-0944. Tickets are also available for purchase at the Shepherd's House, located at 227 Rockford St. across from the Andy Griffith Playhouse.
Reach Tom Joyce at 719-1924 or email@example.com.

Room 205 Welcomes Ted Leo
We are excited to premiere a new installment of Room 205 with Ted Leo, who brings us an intimate, stripped down rendition of "One Polaroid A Day" from the album The Brutalist Bricks.
For more than ten years, Ted Leo has been one of the most progressive forces in the East Coast independent music community performing both as a solo artist and with his backing band The Pharmacists. Through a unique synthesis of punk and folk, soul and hardcore, traditional Irish music and off-the-cuff improvisation, Leo writes seamless pop songs that are pleasing to both the sugar-craving ear and the intellectually curious mind.
Ted recently visited Room 205 to perform three songs inside of an ever-evolving set conceived by director Jason Farrell and set designer Tamarra Younis. We begin our journey with Ted in a faux-campfire setting as he performs "One Polaroid A Day."

kay , so what was the plus side of this whole thing then ? :( or the reason :p
I can't explain why Sony made the decision to use C#, but Alex has previously said they needed to convert the game from C++ to C# for it to go on the PSN.Not sure what you mean by head rolling - it sounds like you are the one that is confused.
But this makes it alittle boring and way OT about how Eufloria is supposed to be played. You might disagree with me, but thats what I mean
That means a bigger audience for us level designers, apart from anything else.
I guess so... It'll seem weird to have to shift from C# to C++ for nothing really, except for other people with other OS' than Windows ofc

One man's trash is said to be another man's treasure, and now old cargo shipping containers are rapidly becoming sought-after treasure in the architecture industry. The term cargotecture, coined in 2005 by HyBrid Architecture, is used to describe any building partially or entirely built from recycled ISO shipping containers. It may seem strange that such a simple, aesthetically-unappealing box could be so loved by modern architects, but the increased use of reclaimed materials in architecture is starting to show no bounds. In a world dominated by mass production, architects are being forced to find alternative ways of designing buildings that will make the smallest impact on the earth. Extending the life of discarded materials and saving salvageable items from landfill is a completely viable approach. Shipping containers are resistant to fire, termites, hurricanes and earthquakes, proving themselves to be extremely resilient. Somewhat like stacking blocks of Lego, steel or aluminum shipping containers are a perfectly strong building block... Via Lauren Moss, Digital Sustainability

I love that I've finally found the neologism for this type of architecture finally! Cargotecture is an upcoming trend in the architect's world and this article is actually one of the most brief and yet informative blogs I may have found in my short search, so far of these shipping container homes and buildings. The containers prove to be a very useful and easily moveable. They are in great abundance, which is fantastic since they are so often used for their resilience to fire, termites, hurricanes and earthquakes. So there's my answer finally to why these containers are becoming so popular amongst architects. Delete the scoop?

May 14, 2013 Postcode: B14 Wayne has just completed a raised terrace for us with steps into the garden. We have used him many times over the past 4 years and as always the work is done to a high standard. He incorporated his own ideas into ours and the result is a beautiful, professional piece of craftsmanship which enhances our home. The job did run over and whilst we paid for the additional materials, Wayne kept the original quote for labour. He has a team he can call upon, this time it was Kevin who is a highly skilled carpenter/joiner. Wayne and his team are always really pleasant and easy to talk too and we have no concerns giving him a key. He's always the first person we call when any work needs doing. Highly recommended!

April 30, 2013 Postcode: B14 After outstanding work for us in in Birmingham, we asked if he would renovate our daughter's flat in Cambridge. He and his equally excellent team fitted a new boiler and central heating system, fitted a new kitchen and bathroom, laid new wooden floors throughout and painted and decorated the whole flat. They brought air beds with them and slept in the flat during the week and worked from 7.30 in the morning until late in the evening to complete the work in less than four weeks. They ensured that only quiet jobs were done in the evening.He organised everything and the results were perfect - we have just never experienced such high standards and excellent service anywhere else.

March 21, 2013 Postcode: B14 Wayne and his team have just completed a kitchen for us and everything said about him is true!! Ours was not an easy project as we had clear ideas of what we wanted and had chosen the units, the wall tiles, the worktops and the paint colour - in addition there were new electrics to wire, the floor wasn't level and being an old house the walls aren't straight! We needed a good guy to put it all together - and we scored gold! No pursing of lips and sucking of breath as I showed him "The Plan" - we are really thrilled to bits / over the moon. The kitchen is as we dreamed and the quality of workmanship and attention to detail is superb. We have already recommended him to a friend, and a visitor recently commented on the "excellent job" and asked us who had done the fitting. We have asked him to do further work on our property and his number will always be our only call in the future. If, like us, you want quality work then have no hesitation in calling him.

As we are waiting to replace a carpet and the job was relatively small, we were lucky that he managed to fit us in really quickly which helped us out enormously. He is a really pleasant, friendly person and the house was left spotless afterwards. I have no hesitation in recommending Wayne and we will definitely be using him again in the future to replace some doors and for any other work even if we have to wait. Rating: Value: Get details »

December 4, 2012 Postcode: B14 The wall tiles in our shower were coming loose, and the cubicle was leaking, so we knew we had to do something early in the new year. Then the shower itself "died". We asked Wayne early in December if he could initially replace the shower, as we had visitors coming to stay within 3 weeks; he gave us good advice about the whole job, helping us to see options we hadn't known about; then completed the whole thing to a high standard well before our visitors arrived - and that included sorting a supplier's design fault. So a good job very well done - and very local. We expect to call him again for other projects. Rating: Value: Get details »
November 30, 2012 Postcode: B14 Our kitchen had been desperately in need of complete renovation (replacement ceiling, plastering, new floor, lighting, fitting of units and appliances etc.) for over 5 years but our fear of picking the "wrong" builder who would probably over promise and underdeliver meant we just kept putting it off. From the first meeting with Wayne we knew we'd got the right person for us. His advice is invaluable, his workmanship of the highest standard, and the finished result is worth every penny. He turns up on time, works extremely long days and leaves everything clean and tidy. His team are, like him, hard working professional and personable. When we decide to have further work done there will be only one person we'll call, no matter how long the wait. If you are stalling on getting work done because you're worried about picking the wrong builder get in touch with Wayne, you won't regret it! Rating: Value: Get details »
October 13, 2012 Postcode: B26 I cannot recommend Brian highly enough. He fitted a new balustrade to our landing and fusion handrail for the stairs.

We will definately be having him back when we fit our new kitchen!! Rating: Value: Get details »
October 13, 2012 Postcode: B31 Kevin has repaired some broken timber flooring in my house.

Australia knock out India in Boxing Day Test, lead series 1-0
Melbourne ,DEC 29 - James Pattinson, Peter Siddle and Ben Hilfenhaus ripped apart the much-hyped Indian batting with their pace and helped Australia thrash them by 122 runs in the first Test in Melbourne. Australia have taken a 1-0 lead in the 4-Test match series. After bowling out Australia for 240 runs in the second innings, India were given a target of 292 runs to win the match but they collapsed to a total of 169 runs.
History was against India to bring off victory as they faced up to the highest fourth-innings run chase in almost 60 years at the MCG. South Africa were the last team to achieve a higher fourth-innings target of 297 for four in beating Australia at the cavernous Melbourne ground in 1953.
India lost opener Virender Sehwag before lunch, caught brilliantly by Hussey above his head in the gully off Hilfenhaus for four. India, 24 for one at lunch, unravelled in the middle session with five wickets tumbling for 93 runs.
Gautam Gambhir fell to a fired-up Siddle, edging to the safe hands of Ricky Ponting at second slip for 13.Rahul Dravid was bowled for the second time in the match with a pearler from Pattinson that crashed into his middle-stump for 10 to leave India 58 for three in the 19th over.
V.V.S. Laxman was out cheaply again flicking Pattinson to Ed Cowan at square leg for just one after scoring two in the first innings.Virat Kohli was out first ball, leg before wicket to Hilfenhaus with Tendulkar fast running out of batting partners.
India's hopes dived once champion batsman Sachin Tendulkar was dismissed for 32 in the 27th over to leave his team wallowing at 81 for six. He sliced Siddle to Hussey in the gully. With his departure India's chances darkened considerably, silencing the "Swarmy Army" India supporters and prompting many to leave the ground.
Ashwin was 30 not out off 29 balls with captain MS Dhoni on 14. But immediately after the last session of the day resumed at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, India lost R Ashwin as their sixth batsman. He perished after Peter Siddle had him caught by Ed Cown at short leg without any addition to his score.
Zaheer Khan added 24 runs for the eighth wicket with Dhoni before Pattinson dismissed him for 13 runs.
Dhoni also couldn't play a major role as Pattinson cleaned up his stumps for 23 runs. It was then just a matter of time for the proceedings to end.

Evolution and Christian Faith Grantees Announced
Congratulations to the 37 winners of the Evolution & Christian Faith (ECF) grants competition! ECF is a new BioLogos program designed to support projects and network-building among scholars, church leaders, and parachurch organizations.
Scientists Tell Their Stories: George Murphy
During his seminary education, Dr. Murphy also gained a deeper understanding of Luther's theology of the cross, and he realized that it's really the best way to approach the science and theology dialogue.
Series: The Meaning of mîn in the Hebrew Old Testament
The related ideas of the "fixity of species" and "natural kinds" have been prominent in the science and faith conversation. Some Christians take Genesis to mean that God created (bara) fixed species (mîn). But does the text truly indicate such a concept? Biblical scholar Dr. Richard Hess looks at the Biblical context and meaning of the Hebrew mîn, and suggests that when Christians use it to frame our understanding of the entire created order, we may be asking too much of this single word.
Series: But Does it Move? John Lennox on Science and the Bible
Taken from Chapter 2 of John Lennox's book Seven Days That Divide The World, this three part series looks at scripture interpretation. Lennox looks especially at the Galileo controversy regarding the movement of the Earth and why our own interpretations do not necessarily call into question the authority of the Scripture.
Series: The Genesis of Everything
Theologian, historian and Christian apologist Dr. John P. Dickson addresses the history and interpretation of Genesis 1. Making no claims about human biological origins, Dickson urges us to treat the early chapters of Genesis as a literary and historical statement, and listen carefully to it on those terms.
Series: Creation, Evolution, and Christian Laypeople
The six-part series by Dr. Keller considers three main clusters of questions lay people raise with their pastors when introduced to the teaching that biological evolution and biblical orthodoxy can be compatible. As a pastor and evangelist, Keller takes these concerns seriously and offers suggestions for addressing them without requiring believers to adopt a particular view or accept a definitive answer.
Below the Surface; Behind the Scene
In this video, Alister McGrath discusses the importance of going beyond surface readings, both in Scripture and in the natural world. The parable of the sower, for example, contains a far deeper meaning than a story of a man scattering seed.
Gaining Perspective
In today's video, Michael Ramsden discusses the humility and openness we need to have before we approach Scripture.
The Crutch
Providing the crutch for non-believers to lean on is a well-intentioned strategic error that has no benefit and likely does much harm. However, I am even more concerned about something else related to our construction of these crutches.
God's Accommodation to Humans
According to Calvin, accommodation is a pedagogical tool that God employs to communicate to human beings. If God wishes to speak to us, he must bridge the gulf by descending into our world and speaking our language. In other words, God accommodates himself to our ability to comprehend.
A Pastor's Perspective on the Dangers of an Ultra-Literal Perspective
In this video Conversation, Greg Boyd notes that some believers conceive of their faith as a "house of cards"—where shifting one element will collapse the whole thing.
Does the Slippery Slope Always Go to the Left?
In this video Conversation, N.T. Wright responds to a question from a BioLogos Forum reader who notes that in the world of evangelical Christianity there seems to be a great suspicion about becoming too politically liberal, but few worries about becoming too conservative.
The Danger of Preaching on Genesis
In this video Conversation, Joel Hunter acknowledges the risk that pastors take when preaching on Genesis—and in particular, when they approach it with an attitude of humility, allowing the possibility that the text was not meant to be understood in literal terms.
The Benefit of Doubt
But like a church bell on a clear winter night, it is in the crisp darkness of doubt that God's voice carries farther and more clearly. St. John's great insight is that this dark night is a special sign of God's presence, where our false sense of comfort is being stripped away and we are left naked before God and asked simply to trust.
Series: Science and the Evangelical Mission in America
In this three part series, Pastor Ken Wilson of Vineyard Church in Ann Arbor, Michigan, exhorts his fellow evangelical believers to reexamine their uncomfortable feelings toward modern science. He calls churches to confront the brutal facts. By maintaining a defensive position toward science, he says, evangelicals are creating a stumbling block to some people who would otherwise embrace the Bible. He reflects on the numerous testimonies from people in his own congregation who have drawn near to Christ because of his open perspectives on science and faith. Ultimately, it is most important to reach the designated mission field.
On Myth and Meaning
In this video, John Walton talks about ancient myth and how we might better understand it if we think about its intended functionality—that is, myths were a way to explain a culture's origin and universal significance though they lacked the advances of scientific discovery.
N.T. Wright on Understanding Ancient Texts
In this video Conversation, N.T. Wright emphasizes the importance of understanding the context of biblical texts in order to know whether to read them as literal or metaphorical narratives.
Getting Back to Basics
In today's video Conversation, Dr. Greg Boyd discusses the basic truths that provide the framework for Christian belief and distinguishes them from the potentially divisive issues that do not compromise what he refers to as the "non-negotiable" truths.
Science and Faith in the Front Lines of the Culture War
In this brief video conversation, Os Guinness, author and founder of the Trinity Forum, suggests that the religious right might have largely created the current culture war that has science and faith as its core antagonists.
Reading Nature and Reading Scripture
I recently led a seminar on faith and science at a large Christian music festival in rural Illinois. One pugilistic gentleman bulldogged me all week, insisting that geologists and biologists were misguided and mistaken. "If evolution is right," he said, "then the Bible is wrong―about everything."

Dec. 7, 1941 -- the day Japan attacked Pearl Harbor and Don Wardell enlisted (with video)
On Dec. 7, 1941, Don Wardell was working at his job of delivering milk to homes in Cleveland when he heard on the truck's radio that Pearl Harbor had been bombed.
After finishing his route he drove directly downtown to join the U.S. Navy.
"When I heard about Pearl Harbor I was flabbergasted," he said. "I just had to run and enlist," the Mentor resident said.
While hurrying to reach the recruiting station before it closed for the day, a police officer stopped him for speeding and skipping a red light. After explaining his situation he was let go with the officer's admonition — "Don't hit anybody until you get to the Japs!"
Wardell, now 90, who was orphaned at an early age, served with the U.S. Navy from 1941 through 1946, achieving the rank of Gunner's Mate second class.
Two weeks prior to reporting for duty, Wardell, who was 18 years old at the time, quit his job and gave up his housing, car and clothing. During his first medical exam, doctors delivered the news that he was unfit to serve because of bad feet and hammer toes.
"You've got to take me," he told the examiners, "I don't have anything left and nowhere to live."
Eventually permission to be sent to the Great Lakes Naval Base in Illinois was granted along with the warning that he would be sent back.
"They never did," the veteran said. "They needed men and whisked me right through."
Although he expressed a preference to join a radio unit, he was told gunners were needed and was shipped to Virginia for training.
His first assignment was to be part of a 10-man gun crew on a Merchant Marine tanker delivering oil from Curacao Island in the Caribbean to the Red Sea.
Wardell recounted a frightening incident in which shortly after being relieved from keeping watch on deck by his best friend the ship was hit by a torpedo. His friend was knocked overboard and died.
The remaining gunners managed to stay aboard in hopes the enemy submarine would surface so they could return fire. After an hour they decided to jump in the dark, oil-filled waters in case the ship exploded or sank.
Asked how he felt during the perilous episode, Wardell said "All I remember is we were scared to death."
Life jackets helped the group stay afloat as they watched American planes fly overhead, but immersion in thick, black waters prevented the gunners from being seen. Finally someone directed the men to grab a floating log and kick and splash to attract the potential rescuers attention.
The strategy worked.
Once aboard the destroyer that was dispatched for the rescue the men were rushed into the shower.
"There was oil dripping out of our mouths, eyes, noses … and after the shower we still didn't get it all," he said.
Wardell survived other threatening situations while serving in several areas of the world, many of them consisting of being continuously under fire or close to drowning. Continued...
Chided that he was a man with nine lives, the feisty veteran jokingly responded "No, I'm on my 13th. I've been lucky all my life."
Smoking four or five packs of cigarettes each day helped him get through the treacherous ordeals, he said.
The men also did a bit of drinking.
Wardell told of a humorous story that took place in Scotland. After ordering a shot of scotch at a pub they were told the liquor had been rationed to one drink per customer. The limited situation was remedied by visiting several pubs and imbibing in a shot at each.
Wardell said that during his lengthy tour of duty he bore no thoughts of losing the war.
"We won World War I, didn't we?" he asked. "We're Americans. We couldn't be defeated."
Just as Wardell clearly recalls the moment he heard of the Pearl Harbor bombing, his memory of receiving news that the worldwide conflict was over is distinct.
While climbing a mud-filled hill on his way to the mess hall he heard someone repeatedly yell "The war ended!"
Wardell's wife, Jan, said that her husband has no hesitation about relating his war experiences.
"He's really unflappable," she said. "There isn't much he can't handle." Continued...
Asked if she was proud of the sacrifices he made for his county, she said "How can you not be proud of anyone who was over there? It's absolutely unbelievable to me what these men went through."

Nina Dobrev
What she wore: The Vampire Diaries star celebrated her September Ocean Drive magazine cover in a strapless graphic GUiSHEM by Guillermo Jop dress.
Why we love it: The dress has an awesome geometric pattern that takes your eyes on a journey all over the dress. It's a sexy cocktail dress but that pattern makes it modern and cool. The solid black insets at the waist, giving her that coveted hourglass shape and an even more stunning silhouette.
Takeaway: The eye-catching graphic pattern might scare off more conservative people, however the striking black, white and grey colour-scheme makes it approachable. Dresses with black insets or black side panelling are great for all shapes and sizes because it creates an hourglass silhouette illusion. Dobrev's dress sure is hypnotizing!
Shenae Grimes
What she wore: The 90210 actress wore a pink sheer lace LOFT top with a leather skirt and black blazer at LOFT and Giuliana Rancic's "Live in Pink" event in West Hollywood, California.
Why we love it: If you ever heard the song "Leather and Lace" then you can see what kind of look Grimes' was channeling, and we love it! The look mixes both sweet and feminine lace with tough and sexy leather, and adds smart and clever with her blazer (the epitome of a modern woman). But all that aside, it's a cool look that one can rock back to school despite the sheerness of the top (obviously opt for something not as see-through). Plus the statement necklaces adds a nice touch of metallic but also doesn't distract you form the rest of the outfit.
Takeaway: Try mixing two different styles together to get a more complex and unique look. Mixing sweet bohemian with tough rocker chick can show the world there is more to you than meets the eye.
Josh Hutcherson
What he wore: The Hunger Games star wore a Levi's Trucker Jacket, a white tee, dark denim, and lace up Vans at CBS' "Teacher's Rock Special Live Concert" in Los Angeles, California.
Why we love it: Hutcherson sported the classic All-American look: jeans, a white tee and a denim jacket. I know what you're thinking and yes the denim jacket-jeans combo is also called the Canadian Tuxedo, but that's specific to when the wash (colour) of denim is the exact same (or very similar) for both the jacket and the pants. Opting for the darker denim, Hutcherson had more versatility with this clean and casual look, whereas if he went lighter, he wouldn't look as cool. (If you don't believe me, click here.)
Takeaway: Having a denim jacket is a solid investment for anyone to have and works year round, except for winter. But make sure that if you're going to pair it with jeans go for a drastically different wash or even coloured denim. (Try sticking with khakis because it'll make your life a lot easier.) Kate

It's not every day that a 28-year-old player enters the NFL draft, but Oklahoma State quarterback Brandon Weeden is certainly bucking the trend.
Last year, Weeden was the quarterback behind top wide receiver prospect Justin Blackmon's success, so the signal caller certainly deserves a little bit of credit.
Already a number of years older than his counterparts in the draft class, Weeden may have hit his performance ceiling. Scouts must decipher whether or not this field general is done improving.

REPORTS: Concord Woman Facing OUI Charges After Hitting Police Cruiser
A Boxborough Police officer reportedly suffered non-life threatening injuries in the accident, which occurred Friday, Feb. 1.
A Concord woman is reportedly facing charges of operating under the influence of liquor after she allegedly crashed into a Boxborough Police cruiser that was attempting to stop another vehicle Friday night. According to reports by Fox25 and Boston.com, the accident occurred around 11:45 p.m. near Exit 28 on I-495 north. BPD Officer Edward Pokornicki was reportedly attempting to stop a car when a Toyota Corolla driven by Mary Hayes, 52, of Concord, struck the back of his cruiser. The officer swerved to avoid crashing into the car he had pulled over and was forced to leave the roadway, his cruiser "settling against a large berm and some small trees on the median," the Globe reported. Pokornicki was transported to Emerson Hospital in Concord…

Taschale is from Ethiopia. She has 2 children. She needs a loan of $275 to buy lambs to raise.
Taschale is a sheep farmer who enjoys her work. This loan from World Vision allows her to buy more sheep for fattening up and increase her profits. She supplies sheep to the local meat market. The number of her customers is increasing and her business is becoming profitable.
Taschale feels confident in her business and works hard to generate more income. In the past it was hard to get ahead of the expenses, and lack of financial help was an obstacle to effectively manage her business. Now she has a future plan to expand her business by buying young cattle to raise.
As the mother of two children, Taschale wants to improve her family's quality of life and cover the costs of schooling and clothing for her children.
The Agriculture business sector covers all farming and livestock activities. Some entrepreneurs request loans to help in securing supplies and equipment. Others want to buy more animals to breed or purchase feed and medicines. The majority of our loan clients live in rural communities where agriculture is already understood as a business model. It is for this reason that approximately 50% of our loans are in the agricultural sector.
There is no community update available at this time.

Laltrello, 70, had been a champion of Polk County tourism efforts for years, working with local officials to promote the county's attractions. Most recently, she was instrumental in the planning and development of Rockmart's Welshfest, serving as co-chair of the event. That event is scheduled for tomorrow.
Polk County Commission Chair Jason Ward said he was shocked and saddened to hear the news of Laltrello's passing.
"Jean was a wonderful person who worked tirelessly for the Polk County Tourism Board and local historical associations to promote Polk County. I spoke with her last night about the Welshfest event tomorrow and the Tourism Board meeting next Tuesday." Ward said. "She was excited and energetic as always to find ways to make her community a better place to live. Polk County will sorely miss her leadership and energy. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends."

The Wiz that I enjoyed had Michael Jackson....... The Wiz that I tolerate has some guy named Nene........ Wiz by 1..........
Im going to call Washo's on this one. The acquisition of Nene makes this a nice net positive for the Wiz. By less than 8, under 195. Ill chuck a few dollars on it =)
I am going to this game....My boss is taking me, VIP tickets, I'm excited, I will proudly represent the Detroit Pistons, he's a Wizard fan tho....
Where's he taking you to dinner before the game? That may be the better part of the evening, considering the matchup.
With the VIP tickets, you get food included, and parking...and good seats.... Tickets are not that expensive either but you know its the Wizards so.....(I'm not saying anthing bad about my team)
Definition of tanking: Playing Ben Wallace during crunch time. They don't guard him on offense. He can't make a free throw. Unless you are going to use timeouts to sub offense-for-defense, you can't have him in there....unless you are tanking.... Clutch shot at the end for Super Collider. With Rip gone, he is developing into our go-to guy.
Finally the Pistons win one where they took the last shot...and it dropped in......a crunch time big shot by Stuckey in a game that both teams struggled to put the ball in the hoop. It appeared that Taynking was in affect for both teams as Coach Larry swapped out Moose and Max during crunch time and left Big Ben in there to close out the game. Ben obliged the coaches' taynking objective by missing three FT's in the last 90 seconds but a big a big three by Stuckey, a tip in by Moose and then the Stuckey jumper with .2 seconds left won it for Pistons, who didn't taynk as bad as the Wizards who have lost several games in the 4th qtr Welcome back Stuckey, goodbye Mr Gordon...
As my mate put it: The Pistons lay the smackdown on Washington today. Shooting a lights out 37%FG and a lava hot 23% from beyond the arc, their passing definately added to this edge, with the team dishing out a mind altering 12 dimes in the 48 minutes played. Austin Daye gets player of the game with 2 rebounds and a personal foul in just 6 minutes. He also managed to get off 4 beautiful shots with a 100% brick rate. Back to you Cam.
Good win by the team in a game where they shot 37% from the field. Super Collider (not so much at the end though) really came through for them. Rodney was huge at the end of the game as he got into his groove, and he of course hit the game winner. He didn't start off well by any means, at one point committing 3 offensive fouls in succession. I was honestly concerned that he seemed to be forcing it a bit in the first half (thus the offensive fouls), probably with the knowledge that his team absolutely needed him to score, but he did much better when he calmed down in the second half and got his jumpers to fall. His FG% isn't the best (9 for 20), but the team's outside of Greg and JJ who each only took 4 and 5 shots was way worse. And he came through when it counted. Good second half for him. Greg had a quiet night, struggling with turnovers (he had 5) and fouls (also 5), but he finished the game with a modest double double (10/10), and his last two points came off a huge tip in of Tay's missed shot at the end which set the stage for Rodney's game winning shot. Not a bad day at the office considering that, but his defense does need work. Brandon played pretty well, bouncing back from his 2 assist, 6 turnover game against NY with a 7 assist, 1 turnover game tonight (as a team, they only had 12 assists, 18 TOs). He also had 6 boards and 3 steals. His FG% is as about as bad as it gets, he was 3 for 13 - but he played solid defense on Wall at the end especially, staying with him and forcing him baseline to make that shot attempt as difficult as possible and made him miss. His highlight (which made the game's highlight reel) was a hustle play - he flew out of bounds trying to get a loose ball and got drenched. But the bigger play came after, his third steal of the night which got them an extra possession. Tay was ok. He was the only guy who could put any points on the board for a while there, and finished with 18 points. He also made that nice pass that led to Rodney's 3 that put them up 2. Max was a non-factor and played only 17 minutes. JJ was very good, he played with a lot of energy and was a big part of the comeback effort just playing like that. He also tipped in Brandon's missed shot that tied the game iirc. He finished with 9 points and 12 boards in just under 31 minutes. BG only played 6 minutes, and presumably will be out when we play Cleveland as he has a sore groin (seriously what's with all the groin pulls this year? Off the top of my head, Rose, Rip, Chauncey, Rodney, Melo, and now BG - crazy). Bynum - He can score, but often to the detriment of the team. He also committed all of his turnovers forcing his way inside among the trees even when his teammates were back with him. He's like a far less effective Stuckey circa 2010. Sure, he'll make nice plays here and there, but I never feel like he's a net positive. I also don't get why he "played point" when either Rodney or Brandon were on the floor with him either; he seems to have pretty bad floor awareness. He also committed fouls after each of his 3 turnovers. Austin played for the third straight time, and was 0 for 3 in just 5 minutes. 100% brick rate. He did grab a rebound at one point, but was a non-factor the rest of the time. Not enough PT to do much, though. Big Ben was ok. That rebound off Wall's missed layup attempt was huge (though he inadvertently elbowed Jonas right in the face on that play; JJ's fan girls' collective hearts must have stopped), and he thankfully was able to make 1 of the 2 fts after. Good game. Frustrating at times, but they just never went away; they just kept coming back at the Wiz the whole game and finally got over the hump in crunch time. Nice to snap that ugly five game losing streak too.
I'll give the "Richard" nod to this box score........... Tim Duncan missed Sunday night's Spurs game because he's 'old,' officially | Ball Don't Lie - Yahoo! Sports
Now that was a fun game in the end. I will have to change my opinion of Stuckey if he keeps this up. Maybe he just needed a good coach.

Look at the top, left-hand corner at the bill payer's description.
It happened at Chilly D's Sports Lounge in CA. When the server returned, the three girls questioned him about the "fat girls" label, but the waiter denied any wrongdoing, according to reports. He said an employee named "Jeff," whose name appears on the receipt, must have typed "fat girls" into the system to keep track of their bill.
A manager went over to explain the "fat girls" check, but he "had like a smirk on his face, like it was funny but trying not to laugh," Duran told ABC News. Instead of clearing all charges, he offered a discount of 25 percent and then a discount of 50 percent, but the women rejected the offers.
On Saturday, Chilly D's posted an apology on its Facebook page over the insulting bill. (huffingtonpost.com)
