Explore can be used for searching for items on a reading list, or for conducting a simple search for information for a project or essay. Using Explore facilitates access to any full-text we subscribe to.
Explore provides links to tools for finding individual ejournals and databases. Using this route will allow access to all the electronic resources to which you are entitled as a UCL member. If you are on-site you will not need to log in to resources. If you are off-site, you will be prompted for your UCL userid and password automatically.
If you reach an electronic resource to which UCL subscribes, by another route, you can follow the instructions in the section "Logging in on a resource's homepage".
See our guide "Getting the most from Explore" for more information about the Explore service and how to best make use of it.
For conducting a detailed review of the evidence for any audiological topic then it is essential to use databases. Bibliographic databases index articles published in journals that have been accepted for inclusion within the database. As they index journals from a range of publishers they don't include the full-text of articles within the database, but do give citation details and abstracts where available.
As audiology is a multidisciplinary subject, it is not possible to recommend a single database for research. Any search for audiological literature should include an appropriate combination of databases, the most relevant being:
UCL access - Our a-z list of databases at UCL can be used to access any of the above databases. If you are using a computer away from UCL, then you will be prompted for your UCL userid and password automatically in order to access them.. Links to the full-text of papers in UCL e-journals via the SFX button are available within the databases.
NHS access - Desktop access to MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL and AMED for UCLH staff is delivered through NICE Evidence Search. An OpenAthens password is required to access the NHS Evidence Search Service. It is important that UCLH staff specifiy that they belong to the Trust when registering for the OpenAthens password, as a number of information resources are purchased locally for the Trust. NHS staff transferring to UCLH who have already registered for an OpenAthens password should update their organisation to UCLH through My Account for access to the full range of resources available. RNTNEH [UCLH]staff can access all of the above databases by visiting the libraries at the RNTNE Hospital and using the Explore Access Points.
We provide database searching support for NHS staff undertaking research to find evidence to support patient care, guideline and audit development. Contact us to request a literature search, or to arrange for training on accessing and using databases.
Electronic access to the full-text of several thousand journal titles is available via UCL Library Services for UCL staff and students. The electronic titles available include:
UCL Access - Access the above titles through the UCL ejournal a-z title index, or by looking them up in Explore. If you are using a computer away from UCL, then you will be prompted for your UCL userid and password automatically in order to access the full-text content.
NHS access - RNTNEH [UCLH] staff can access all of the above journals by visiting the libraries at the RNTNE Hospital and using the Explore Access Points. Desktop access to e-journal titles available to UCLH staff is delivered through NICE Evidence Search. An OpenAthens password is required to access the NHS Evidence Search Service. Not all of the journals listed above are available to UCLH staff on the desktop, contact us for more information.
At present very few audiology books are available electronically. However there are titles on biomedicine, mathematics, physics and statistics available.
UCL access - Use Explore to search for ebook titles, or browse the lists of ebooks available.
NHS access - Use NICE Evidence Search to search for ebook titles. An OpenAthens password is required to access the NHS Evidence Search Service.
UCL Discovery:
UCL Discovery showcases UCL's research publications, giving access to journal articles, book chapters, conference proceedings, digital web resources, theses and much more, from all UCL disciplines. Where copyright permissions allow, a full copy of each research publication is directly available from UCL Discovery, including those from the UCL Ear Institute.
Exam papers
Previous copies of exam papers, where they are available, can be found in the Electronic Exam Papers Service.
Audiology Improvement - NHS Improvement is a national improvement programme working with clinical networks and NHS organisations to transform, deliver and sustain improvements across the entire pathway of care. Audiology Improvement is a core part of this project. The site contains details of projects and pilots to develop audiology services in England, examples of successful practice, a resources links page, and news and events listings.

The most influential work of the entire Spanish literary canon and a founding work of modern Western literature, Don Quixote is also one of the greatest works ever written. Hugely entertaining but also moving at times, this episodic novel is built on the fantasy life of one Alonso Quixano, who lives with his niece and housekeeper in La Mancha. Quixano, obsessed by tales of knight errantry, renames himself "Don Quixote" and, with his faithful servant Sancho Panza, goes on a series of quests. Many of these adventures, including tilting at windmills, are established in European literary consciousness.
Originally published in two volumes a decade apart (in 1605 and 1615), Don Quixote has been brought to life in its entirety in this audiobook.

"More than funny"
I didn't know much of anything about this book. If I had listened to it by itself, my take on it would probably be that it is funny, but way too long, and not much more. I enjoyed it much more than that because I decided to listen to a Yale course online (which is free) as I listened to the book. Each lesson gives the professor's take on the chapters assigned. I highly recommend this for those who aren't already very familiar with the book and its significance. You can google the audio course if you're interested, search Cervantes' Don Quixote with Professor Roberto González Echevarría.
"Totally brilliant narration and story"
I would never have thought I'd enjoy a book about a madman wandering around Spain in Shakespearean times so much, but I found myself looking forward to every listening session then smiling and chuckling throughout. The narrator brought the characters to life, the best I've heard.
"One of my favorite books of all time!"
I LOVED this book! I enjoy the classics, but had not read Don Quixote before listening to this Audible version. It is an absolutely wonderful book, is laugh out loud funny, and the narrator did an extraordinary job making all the characters come to life. Be prepared to use the bookmark feature often, you'll definitely want to go back to the funniest parts!
"Definitive Quixote"
I'll certainly listen again. This is the best audiobook I have ever listened to. The performance by Roy McMillan is unbeatable. I cannot recommend this enough.
It's Quixote. The best novel in the world.
McMillan's performances of Don Quixote and Sancho Panza are pitch-perfect. He understands the characters from within. The host of minor characters is also excellently done. McMillan is a versatile and wonderfully entertaining reader.
Quixote encountering his beloved Dulcinea in the shape of a village wench stinking of garlic.
"Thank you"
Thanks for offering Don Quixote - never would have made it through without Audible. A great book. Not a modern translation, but a great performance.
"Hugely enjoyable"
Funny, endearing, engrossing
Don Quixote's encounter with the sheep is one of many that I have enjoyed so far, but much of the book is still ahead of me.
Hard to say as there are so many, but I loved the line where the Don was described as retiring to bed after one of their adventures to dream of his fair Dulcinea while Sancho Panza retired to his 'like a man who had been soundly beaten'.
The gentle satire makes me smile and occasionally laugh out loud. At the same time I am torn between feeling that something must be done to curtail the activities of this would be knight who is roaming around inflicting real damage on imagined opponents and a dread that he will be rounded up and diminished by the collapse of his illusions.
This is a great book, not just by reputation but in reality and I am grateful to Audible books for making it accessible to me. Cervantes has created a memorable character in the Don. He is both demented and truly noble, possessing a dignity that mysteriously is not touched by the absurdity of his actions and beliefs. His unfailing optimism and self belief in the face of constant setbacks is quite wonderful. I feel Cervantes has an enormous affection for him and for all the other characters of his world. It would be hard to imagine the book being read aloud better than it is by Roy McMillan. The subtle differences of class, attitude etc between characters when they speak are clearly expressed and the reader's tone conveys the humour in a tongue in cheek style that is never laboured.
"Classic story, wonderfully read, perhaps too long."
This is one of literature's classic works, ushering in a new era of literature. Roy McMillan reads it excellently, rendering many of the regional Spanish dialects into an appropriate analogue from the British Isles: the goat herders have a Welsh accent, for example.
I took advice from one of the other Audible reviews, and listened in conjunction with Yale University's literature course by Professor González Echevarría, who places the book into the important context of the contemporary literary styles it references and parodies.
The two 'volumes' were published ten years apart, and are therefore quite distinct in style. The first volume in particular has rather too many side-stories irrelevant to the main plot. For this reason, an abridged version might be preferable.

"Now That It's Over I Miss This Book"
Long ago in my undergrad days I blew by Don Quixote in a survey course. To a mind not very attuned to thick books and partial to any explanation that would make the test easier, believing that Cervantes had penned nothing more than a multi-volume diatribe against those iniquitous chivalric romances was a cinch.
Such an oversimplification served my purposes: first, to identify Cervantes' proper place on the flowchart of "Those Who Have Contributed to the Creation of the Modern Novel". Second: to get a passing grade, graduate and get a job and a place of my own.
Over the years, however, I've often wondered how any writer, no matter how gifted, could stretch such an indictment over some 900-some-odd pages and still manage to achieve a work that would be reverenced and relished for 400 years. When Audible put Don Quixote on sale in February of 2011, I decided to see—or rather, hear—what Cervantes had really written.
Before I did, however, I decided to immerse myself in the romances that were supposedly Cervantes' target. I read all of Chretien de Troyes. I read Beroul. And Gotfried von Straussburg's, Wolfram von Eschenbach and Hartmann von Aue.
I discovered works that were a joy to read. Works that captivated the imagination, that even played with and parodied the very genre they were establishing. So far from finding dusty books worthy of contempt, I found vivid invention and vigorous writing. And in the first dozen minutes of Don Quixote I discovered I had been reading the wrong romances.
Cervantes' target seems to be the later romances written just before his time, chiefly the Amadis of Gaul and Orlando Furioso. I've never read Amadis, but years ago I did get Orlando under my belt and enjoyed the hell out of it. I began to wonder if the whole indictment of chivalric romances was just a device to tell a great story.
No matter what his motivation, we should all be glad he did set pen to paper. I rank Don Quixote with Tom Jones and Pickwick Papers as the three of books I'd choose if cast upon a desert island (not that that's likely to ever happen). It never ceases to delight. And now that's it's over I miss it terribly. Seriously. Most of the credit goes to Cervantes, but the reader Roy McMillan deserves his share as well. His easy tone, light manner and perfect diction make him the ideal travelling companion for this ride.
Oddly enough, the book gives the same kind of pleasure as those romances it lampoons. In this guided tour of life in early 17th Century Spain, you never know what's going to happen around the next corner. Is the stranger at the inn a villain or a saint? Is the shepherd singing on the hillside a man or a woman? Is the fantastic story they tell true or false? Is the popularity of the first volume of the book, which we find recorded in the second, a tweak at the reading public who consume such improbable works as Amadis of Gaul so avidly?
And of course there's the ultimate, overarching question that seems to hold the book together: is Don Quixote mad or sane?
Though the book ends with a vigorous diatribe against chivalric romances, the hero (or anti-hero, if you go that way) could not be more sympathetic and likeable. When not smashing puppet shows or liberating condemned cutthroats he is full of good sense and rounded phrases. His "achievements" (battling with windmills and wineskins, for example) make him famous throughout Spain and indeed Europe—not because they are real achievements, of course, but because the book that records those deeds gives such delight.
Maybe that's why Don Quixote deserves its central place in the "Who-Created-the-Modern-Novel" flow chart: because Cervantes shows us that real life, our ordinary existence, can be as enchanted and improbable as any romance.
"I wanted to love it"
The narrator did a great job making the story come to life.
It was just so long, and ultimately the half dozen interesting parts could not offset the dozens of boring parts. I found myself dozing as I listened.
"Long but Entertaining Story"
No, the story was read superbly. The subtle changes in narrators intonation for each of the characters in the book made it very easy to follow who was talking at all times.
No, this is a long story and, although very entertaining, not always fast paced.
"The Mother and Father of all novels"
Although I have a dread of dusty old fiction, curiousness overcame caution and I downloaded this book. I am very glad that I did. Not only is the story itself bewitching, the narration is outstanding. This is the only audio book which I have listened to a second time for the pure pleasure of it. A true comic masterpiece, peppered with wit, wisdom, foolishness and absurdity in perfect balance. Roy McMillan's pace and intonation are perfect for the tale too.
"An excellent listen."
Excellent narration brings this epic tale to life. I really enjoyed the flair and verve with which the book was read.
"A Worthwhile, Rewarding Experience"
If you are even considering listening to this book, or worried about the length, I can honestly say to go for it, this has been a hugely enjoyable experience. As with any audio book, the narration can make a massive difference to the enjoyment of the book, here Roy McMillan is at his best, I know feel like I really know Don Quiote and Sancho Panza and they have living voices in my head and every time I now think back to the book there is always some new adventure I remember the duo went on. Don't get my wrong, this is a LONG book (perhaps the better value for it) and I felt slightly weary around the 20 hour mark knowing how long I had to go. However, after experiencing their lives together for 35 hours I felt a real sadness at it coming to a conclusion and didn't want it to end. I feel this above all is testament to the enjoyment I found in the novel and in the narration. I would recommend this to anyone, the characters are engaging and the reading excellent. 5*'s
"What happens when you read too many books"
My readings of Don Quixote were patchy and, as a curious storyteller, I wanted to fill in the gaps.I couldn't have done better than choose this audiobook. Don Quixote, his head filled with idealism and fantasy from reading too many books on chivalry, is accompanied on his adventures by Sancho Panza, stolid and down to earth, a marvellous comic partnership, Roy McMillan is a jaunty,affectionate narrator who brings the characters, farce, enchantments, combats, wounds, courtships torments and foolishnesses to life. There are nevertheless repetitions and slownesses, especially in the early stages, but when the story is so well narrated that is forgiven .The seemingly endless string of episodes becomes addictive. It is like The Canterbury Tales or The Arabian Nights. The second half of the book really takes off with one rollicking encounter after another and I found it hard to press pause.
"Worth the effort"
When I started listening to this book I regretted getting it straight away. I found it hard to get into, but eventually I realised how good it was; and now I've listened to it a couple of times.
"A slog on occasions but worth the effort."
I downloaded this as it was number one on one of these newspaper "books to read before you die" type articles. I had read some of the reviews on here before doing so and so kind of knew what to expect. It is long, it struggles for a narrative path and is in places seemingly quite repetitive. But, you know what, it does reward the effort and I am glad to have spent the time in the company of the two main characters who do, through the writing and the performance, come to life and I carry them and their many bizarre adventures and encounters with me still. And with a smile as well.
"A lot more entertaining than I expected"
Maybe not, because it's very long, but I'm glad I listened to it this time. It's a lot funnier than I expected. I had always assumed it was about this very courageous, serious character but Don Quixote turns out to be a loveable but deluded figure of comedy and the author spends the entire book taking the p out of him in the nicest of ways.
Roy McMillan really brought the story and characters to life with different voices and accents; I can guarantee I would not have found it anywhere near as funny had I been reading the dialogue on the page.
"Understanding references"
I find it easy to listen while driving or on the bus, I cannot read on public transport or in the car it makes me feel sick. Easy listening!
I have enjoyed listening to this and have picked up on references to the characters in all sorts of places, I did not understand these before but now feel quite pleased with myself
They are all interesting characters, all adding to the whole.
"It's interesting and well written but long"
My lasting impression of this book will be that it was seemingly unending. I enjoyed each section I listened to, but just when you thought you'd heard every jovial tale and smiled at Panza's cheerfully endured misfortunes, a quick look would reveal 30 more hours to go.
As with any enjoyable read, there are many memorable set pieces, of which the attacking windmills is far from foremost. I am really glad to have read and enjoyed the book, it is surprisingly well paced and very well written. Other novels of a similar length have seemed infinitely shorter because they involve the reader deeply in the story. I think because Don Quixote is such a gentle amble of a book, it lacks that quality which makes one devour some novels in a single sitting.
The narrator performance a vast cast of characters very well and creates a comfortable feel to this easy going story.
"Charming, but in many respects flawed."
Yes, for several reasons, firstly that this is in places a funny and charming story and secondly because it's a classic. This is one of those books that will often come up in conversation with bookish people and so whether you love it, hate it or feel indifferent to it at least by reading it you can express an opinion you can't be included in a conversation about a book that you have never read for this reason it's often useful to read the classics
The hardback of this book was about 1050 pages long, but you could easily tell this story in 200 pages and lose nothing of the story
Yes after reading this despite my misgivings I bought the DVD of the musical which is quite good.
My main complaint about this book is that although this is a nice little story the characters don't feel like real human people. It's almost impossible for me to identify with them. I did not feel the author has a grasp of human nature of behavior. You might say, well this book was written a very long time ago, but so was Shakespeare and he got human nature very well. And it's not that the people in this book are from another country or culture I don't feel that these characters could ever have existed anywhere or any place even The Odyssey by Homer had characters that you could identify with and that is thousands of years old from a culture that had almost nothing in common with our own. To me the whole book just feels to artificial.

I recieved this in Secret Santa '11. I poured from a 12 ounce bottle into a SA perfect pint, opaque brown pour, moderate tan head, little lacing. Bourbon and vanilla on the nose. The taste is a nice blend of hot bourbon, light vanilla, toffee, and a hint of oak, boozey finish. The body is a bit thin, but not bad. The carbonation is normal, rediculously easy drinking 11% brew. I really liked this beer, surprised to see it labeled as an imperial brown, I was thinking it is a BA barleywine.

A-Opaque brown with a thick gorgeous tan head that lasts forever and creates some nice cascading.
S-Bourbon, alcohol, floral yet malty as well, and some brown sugar
T-Bourbon, vanilla, brown sugar, alcohol sweetness, hint of milk chocolate and coconut
M-Thick and creamy
D-The high abv. and complexity make it a true sipper, but easy to drink given its high abc.
Overall, great beer as it is complex and delicious. I highly recommend trying it.

A - Pours a deep, milk chocolate brown color with decent clarity - just a bit of haze. Not much of a head forms on top of this - what briefly appeared fizzed away quickly leaving behind a thin collar of cream colored bubbles around the edge of the glass.
S - No doubt this one spent some time in a bourbon barrel. Bourbon aroma is intense, sweet and quite boozy, some wafts of vanilla appear and disappear, caramel. Smells like this is likely to be a bit hot.
T - Surprisingly, the bourbon is perhaps a bit muted and there is a much better balance here. Bourbon is definitely right up front and yields plenty of flavors - lots of vanilla especially. Sweet caramelized sugars and some butter underneath with the boozy aspects of the bourbon showing up towards the swallow, although quite well controlled. Alcohol isn't as big a factor as I expected at 11%.
M - Medium bodied with an equivalent carbonation which is a bit tingly on the tongue. Bourbon is rather well controlled but still manages some warmth as well as a tingle on the lips on each sip. Pretty smooth for a beer of this strength.
O - Overall, a pretty good bourbon barrel aged brown ale. Bourbon will likely mellow a bit more with some age and this should become even nicer when that happens. Bourbon has a bit too much presence and masks most of the base beer's flavors. A little less bourbon intensity should allow these to shine thru more.

brown, with a smallish head was lifted up onto the top, but this was quickly replaced by a thin layer of film across the top. Carbonation was visible in the very clear brew.
The smell was rich and sweet. Predominant aroma was a caramel with a touch of an earthy malt. A light feeling was released by this, so you really did not think you were going into anything too terribly heavy. As it warmed you could pick up a roasted or burnt smell coming though as well as a touch of a hop note rounding out the back. caramel that you caught right up front along with a burnt or roasted wood flavor.

3.45/5 rDev -13.5%
Pours a super thin dark brown with a small quickly dissipating head. Smells of toasted grains, slight bourbon and vanilla dominate the nose. First sip is disappointingly thin but flavorful thanks to bourbon and oak flavors gained in the barrel. As it warms the vanilla takes on a larger role and is complimented with oak and bourbon. Base beer, I am guessing is nothing too special on its own but with the oak and bourbon combines for a fairly good beer. I am guessing these bottles are all hand filled as many of my bottles have low fills and many high fills. Not a bad beer at all…just could have been amazing with a stronger base beer.

Spurs' record signing Lamela to return to River Plate (From Haringey Independent)
Get involved: send your pictures, video, news & views by texting HARINGEY to 80360, or upload here
Tottenham Hotspur's record signing, Erik Lamela, will return to former club River Plate this summer in a bid to improve his fitness
7:00pm Friday 30th May 2014 in Spurs
Tottenham Hotspur's record signing, Erik Lamela, will train with former employers River Plate in a bid to improve his fitness this summer, according to the Independent.
The 22-year-old left-winger endured an incredibly frustrating first season in England following his £30m switch from Roma, making just ten starts in all competitions and just three in the Premier League.
Lamela was hampered by injury and a lack of fitness followin his arrival from Italy but never came close to performing the role expected of him - namely replacing Real Madrid-bound Gareth Bale.
Following the appointment of Mauricio Pochettino as head coach, it appears Spurs will not give up on the Aregntine international, who will train with first club River Plate in order to improve his fitness for the new season.
The six-cap Argentina international has been linked with a return to Italy with Internazionale but this latest move appears to indicate Pochettino is keen to try and get the best from the pacey attacker.

Organic Fit Bar Inside Look: Ocean Vodka
After taking a sip of Ocean Vodka it is clear that this special spirit is anything but a typical vodka. Smooth and pure, with a lovely hint of sweetness, Ocean completely lacks that medicinal tasting "vodka burn"; the unforgiving signature or many standard vodka brands. What is it that makes Ocean Vodka so refreshingly different? The answer lies within a bit of Hawaiian history, a dash of organic produce and a twist of fate leading to a glacial melt in Greenland that occurred over 2,000 years ago.
One beautiful evening in Maui, back in 2005, Shay Smith sat around with his family, a group of ocean-loving surfers, and enjoyed a cocktail mixed with their favorite imported vodka. Discussing their dream of developing a business that would be enjoyable and also provide a way for them to help protect and preserve the ocean they care so deeply about, they launched a plan to create Ocean Vodka.
Tapping into the unique natural water source that lies 3,000 feet below the surface of the ocean, in a canyon off of the coast of Kona, Hawaii, Ocean Vodka partnered up with MaHaLo Hawaii Deep Sea Water to bring the worlds only spirit derived from this unusual water resource. Traveling the ocean currents all of the way from the massive glacial melt in Greenland that occurred 2,000 years ago, the water that lies in the Hawaiian canyon is perfectly pure, untouched by any possible surface pollutants. At extremely cold temperatures and at such a great depth, a 3/4 mile long pipe is needed to access this treasure of water. Once pulled to land, the water is desalinated using reverse osmosis and the end result is a product that is completely pure and mineral-rich, simply perfect for great vodka making.
Searching for the right combination of ingredients to mix with their pure water, the Ocean team spent some time experimenting with organic corn and rye, only to find that the tastiest and smoothest vodka came from utilizing USDA certified organic sugar cane. Without the use of any blending or flavor additives, a unique and precise four column continuous distillation process, which is the equivalent of hundreds of times distilled, allows Ocean to reach optimal pureness and flavor.
Beyond achieving a great tasting vodka, Ocean takes pride in being an exceptionally green corporation. Their facility is energy efficient, they recycle, and use natural products within their work environment. In addition, Shay, the CEO of Ocean, along with his family follow through with their desire to help protect the ocean by donating a portion of their proceeds to organizations such as the Surfrider Foundation, Reef Protect, and Save Our Seas.
Ocean Vodka is clearly a unique company, one which allows consumers not just an extremely enjoyable vodka to drink, but also a way to give back to the ocean by simply making a puchase.
Cheers to Ocean for being organic, green and simply delicious!
Ready to try this unique and delicious vodka? Ocean is currently available in Hawaii, California and Arizona. A national U.S. released is scheduled for late 2011. Bevmo! online will currently ship to most states.
Suggestions for Ocean Vodka Recipes: A favorite of Don Freytag's, the CMO of Ocean Vodka is a dry martini called "Ocean Blue" which is Ocean Vodka straight up in a martini glass garnished with 3 blue cheese stuffed olives. Yum!
For more delicious cocktail recipe suggestions, visit the Ocean Vodka Website
Organic Fit Bar Recipe: The "Hawaiian Glacier" – Pineapple Basil Martini
- 2 large organic basil leaves
- 1 ounce organic simple syrup
- 1/4 organic pineapple
- 2 ounces Ocean Vodka
- fresh edible flowers to garnish
Tools needed: Juicer, Muddler, Cocktail Shaker, Cocktail Strainer
To make the organic simple syrup: Pour 1 cup of water and 1 cup of Organic Sugar into a sauce pan. Bring to a boil, stirring continuously. Once the sugar has dissolved, remove from heat and let cool. To store, cover and refrigerate.
To make the "Hawaiian Glacier": Tear up the organic basil leaves and place them in the cocktail shaker. Pour in 1 ounce of organic simple syrup and muddle together very well. Juice 1/4 of the whole organic pineapple and pour into the cocktail shaker. Add 1 cup of ice. Pour 2 ounces of Ocean Vodka over the ice. Shake vigorously. Strain into a chilled martini glass.
Garnish with beautiful fresh edible flowers.
Cheers to Ocean for being organic, green and simply delicious!

Sr. Fellow Lawrence McQuillan was a guest on the Jason Lewis radio show. He discussed the economics and history of totalitarianism vs capitalism in terms of policies such as higher taxes for corporations, farm subsidies, price and rent controls and endless money supply and how history can show us which of these stifle prosperity.

Jamie Roberts on combining rugby and medical studies
– Jamie Roberts
I'd be lying if I said it hasn't been tough but achieving one of my main goals in life means it's worth every second.
I look forward to enjoying graduation with other fellow students. It promises to be a memorable day for us all, as it has been for all those graduating from Cardiff University this week.
I've a huge amount to thank the University for, most notably the School of Medicine and I'm eternally grateful for their help and support over the past 8 years.
I'm excited to see what the future holds, both in terms of my rugby and my medical career
Jamie Roberts to get Cardiff University medical degree
Wales and British and Irish Lions hero Jamie Roberts will graduate today from Cardiff University's School of Medicine after successfully completing his medical degree.
"The academic rigour and intensity of studying for a medical degree is challenging for most students - especially for someone juggling with a life as a professional rugby player" says Professor Paul Morgan, Dean of the School of Medicine.
"Jamie would be the first to admit it's been extremely challenging but nevertheless it is clear from my conversations with him that it has been an enjoyable experience."

Jamie Roberts 'very happy' to pass medical finals
Very happy (ecstatic) to say I've passed my medical finals...only took me 8 years but worth every second of hard graft!! #Dr.Roberts ????????????
Wales Rugby International Jamie Roberts has posted on twitter to say he has passed his medical finals.
The 26 year old has been studying at Cardiff University whilst playing at the Cardiff Blues.
Blues match gets underway
Jamie Roberts' last home game for the Blues has begun. The rugby region are playing Zebre at the Arms Park in the Pro12.
Jamie Roberts joins exodus of top players from Wales
The centre will leave Cardiff Blues next summer. The club's chairman says it's now 'impossible' for the regions to compete financially.Read the full story
Jamie Roberts will leave Cardiff Blues in summer
Cardiff Blues have confirmed that their Wales and Lions centre Jamie Roberts will leave the region at the end of the season.
He rejected a contract offer which the Blues say would arguably have seen him become the highest paid player in the UK.It's thought he will join French side Racing Metro.
Roberts, who turns 26 today, came through the Blues academy and has made 81 appearances for the region to date. He's a medical student at Cardiff University and will sit his final exams during the 2012 Six Nations.
Roberts is the latest in a string of Wales internationals to leave regional rugby for the continent. Cardiff Blues Chairman Peter Thomas says: "It is impossible for the Welsh regions to compete with the kind of money that is on offer from other clubs in other countries."
Roberts not given contract deadline
Cardiff Blues coach Phil Davies says the club have not given Jamie Roberts a deadline to sign a new contract.
The Wales and Blues centre has been linked with a move away from the Arms Park with big spenders Toulouse and Racing Metro among those believed to be considering bids.
Davies says he has had no indication of which way Roberts will go, and is planning for all eventualities.
Injured Roberts pays credit to Wales' performance
Whilst the Wales rugby team prepare to fly home, following three straight defeats against the Wallabies in Australia, the injured Wales and Cardiff Blues Centre Jamie Roberts attended the Welsh language festival, Tyfal, at Cardiff Castle.
Roberts, who will be out of action for around 3 months, following an operation on his knee, spoke of the 'heartbreak' his team mates must be feeling after failing to secure a victory during their summer tour of Australia.

Besides the feeling that the days of the season - and the years in between -- fly by, the hunter's perception of time is something that changes from day to day when he's hunting, and sometimes more often than that. Some days (or moments, or hours) waddle by like a lazy old 'coon who's already had supper, while others skip past quicker than a startled buck. Sometimes time even ceases to exist, out there in the wilds with nothing but animals to keep us company.
When you're out in the woods and there's nothing much happening around you, it seems like time has a way of rubbing it in - prolonging the misery of boredom, snickering at our pain as we stifle a yawn and feign interest in braiding a pine needle. Then when something stirs in the brush, time likes to jump into overdrive.
Still again, if we catch a glimpse of a deer's haunches through the leaves but can't quite make out the whole critter, time seems to jump into hyperspace - as if to take us past the excitement and redeposit us in tedium as soon as possible - while still dragging its feet to fully savor the trembling of our limbs and the pounding of our frantic hearts. Yep, time can be tricky sometimes.
If time seems too cruel in its erratic passage, it does seem to have some small capacity for kindness, too. Many's the occasion when time just quit - took a holiday - as I drew a bead and squeezed the trigger on a buck.
Senses slip away to join time on its brief vacation, leaving our adrenaline-addled brains to fend for themselves. The gun kicks, but we don't feel it. The BOOM of the rifle seems like a muted pop! while the clatter of a semi-auto's action cycling can be clearly discerned. Peripheral vision catches the empty shell as it exits the rifle, yet you may have to blink hard and concentrate to see what lies directly ahead. Reflex alone keeps you on your feet.
Then the senses return as quickly as they left, but time has its own ideas. It may stroll proudly back on the scene, tickled to have done a bit of good and yet ready to usher us past that sweet moment and get to the drudgery of dragging out the kill. Or it may nod off for a bit longer, as adrenaline shakes us to the marrow and blood roars through our veins to help it along. You never can tell what time might do in the hunting woods.
All of these traits of time in the woods combine to make any amount of it well-spent. Fast time, slow time, any time spent in pursuit of game beats any other form of it I've ever known. For out of the varied passage of time while hunting we draw ever nearer to the Maker of time and the beasts we hunt - and when, may I ask, have you ever had a better time than you had while hunting?
- Russ Chastain

Including Resource Lists, Information, and Common Sense
by Sue Freeman
This information was compiled and provided as a public service by a private party.
We're killing
too many cats each year!
4-15 million cats and dogs are destroyed at shelters each year in the United States -- over 120,000 in Los Angeles County alone!!! The costs for housing, killing, and disposing of the bodies of these animals is between $65-$110 per animal, or between $260 million and $1.65 billion annually... between $7.8 and $13.2 million in LA County!! This includes the unwanted, sick, and injured. Not included are the unwanted pets taken to a veterinarian's office to be euthanized.
At least 70% of all cats entering a shelter are healthy animals in LA County. Approximately 1 in 6 PTS are un-weaned and just require bottle feeding to survive. Most adults are rarely adopted. Many animals destroyed are adoptable, 8-16 week old kittens! There are just more cats born each year than there are homes. The basic supply and demand is out of balance.
|How can we change this?
Education, funding, and involvement from the public will make a difference. California state law now requires that ALL Shelters & Non Profit Humane groups alter all animals prior to adoptions. Spaying and neutering of animals will reduce the numbers destroyed by reducing the numbers of animals born. It costs less to spay & neuter an animal than it does to have it euthanized at a shelter!
L.A. County Financial Aid Groups
|'Low Cost' Veterinarians are helping:
When spaying and neutering is more affordable, more animals are altered. Check these pages for what vets charge in your area. Lists include prices and cities of these vet clinics. Although the prices are for cats, vets who do low cost for cats generally charge low cost for dogs:

Humane Groups:
These groups differ from one to another and have different ways to help the animals.

Guidelines for the novice cat rescue person
"Never doubt that a small group of dedicated citizens can change the world. Indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." Margaret Mead
a New Pet?
Do you have room in your life for another pet? If so, you should consider adopting an animal from a humane organization or shelter, rather than from a breeder.
Where to Find a New
Animals from Animal Control Shelters aren't all kept until they are adopted, but are subject to being 'bumped' if space is needed. They can not close their doors when full. You are doing a great deed in rescuing a pet by adopting from an Animal Control Shelter.
Shelters for Animal Control Agencies within Los Angeles County includes hours of operations for the 19 shelters.
Adopting from a Non-Profit Humane Organization opens space for another animal to be 'rescued.'
Los Angeles Humane Organizations offer a wide variety of locations for adopting a cat. This list has phone numbers, locations of adoptions and hours. Also available is Outside LA County Humane Organizations.
Cat & Dog Pictures on the 'net - View cats & dogs at our Animal Control Shelters & some of our Humane Organizations.
Feral Cats & Caring For Young Orphaned Kittens:
Many cats have been abandoned by their owners, and have not been altered. These cats have litters of kittens, who, if not handled by humans, become feral or wild cats. Kittens under 8-9 weeks of age can be tamed and placed. Kittens under 5 weeks will need to be hand fed. The adults need to be altered and returned, providing the location is safe for the cat. This is called TNR, or Trap-Neuter-Return.
Orphaned Kittens and how to care for them orphaned kittens are kittens taken from, or abandoned by, mom cats before they are weaned. Bottle feeding kittens can be rewarding. These kittens have a different bond to humans (they think we are their moms.)
Where in Los Angeles to rent a wild cat trap traps are available throughout Los Angeles to borrow. These groups will walk you through the process of trapping.
"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated." Gandhi
Other Aspects of Rescue:
Early Spay & Neuter Information all shelters and humane groups in California now must alter their animals prior to adoption. The law went into effect on January 1, 2000. This is an attempt to reduce the population of animals. Cats and dogs can be safely altered as young as 8 weeks of age.
Cult Sacrifice Days These days were given to me in the early 90's by the Los Angeles Police Department as days cats are sacrificed. Indoor cats are not subjected to being stolen for sacrifice, so you may wish to keep your indoor/outdoor cats inside before and on these days.

There are so many reasons to love Demi Lovato. Her music, her gig on X-Factor, and her funny personality are just a few of the many things that make Lovatics idolize her. But aside from her work, one of the characteristics that we love most about Demi is that she doesn't take any sass!
Demi has been very outspoken about how bullies in school affected her. "I could remember word for word what my bullies said to me," Demi has said in the past. But even though she struggled in school, Demi has grown stronger with age and become less tolerant of bullying. Now, she's an advocate for anti-bullying and projects a message of positivity to her fans.
Take Demi's advice: adapt her "no sass" attitude and say goodbye to the bullies and haters in your life once and for all.
Click through the gallery below to see GIFs of Demi reacting to bullies. Tell us in the comments: how do you stick up for yourself?

Long Live NickCover Story
By Ruel S. De Vera
There has never been anything like Nick Joaquin's voice—literally. Whenever friends recall the late National Artist for Literature's words, they launch into an impersonation that's so spot-on it verges on the uncanny. "Darling (pronounced daah-ling)," they would say, breaking into a growl that's sweet and improbably loud. It sounds like Joaquin is speaking through that person. It's a voice that thunders through the years. It echoes through distinct points in our history. That voice—explosive, garrulous, unforgettable—made Nick Joaquin immortal.

Modern civilization began right here in the Tigris-Euphrates river valley. Also known as the Fertile Crescent or Mesopotamia, this is the place where, six thousand years ago, agriculture, writing and mathematics were brought into widespread use.
The term "Middle East" comes from the British navy, which used it to describe the countries on the trade route from Europe to India and China. Everything from Afghanistan to Morocco may possibly be classified as "middle eastern", depending on whom you ask -- and when.
Only a partial list of past Empires in the middle eastern territory includes Sumeria, Babylonia, Persia, the Ottoman Empire and the Roman Empire!
When northern Europe was still lurking about in slimy cold stone castles playing chess, the Middle East was enjoying the flowers of poetry, luxurious craftsmanship, music and literature. In fact, the Renaissance in Europe was partly inspired by stories brought back from the middle east by travelers along the trade route.
Strategic location, religious history and the world's largest supply of crude oil have kept the Middle East at the center of world activity for centuries. The saga continues.

GAME NOTES: The Kansas Jayhawks have lost just one game all season, and they continue their quest for the Big 12 Conference regular season title with tonight's contest at Kansas State.
Kansas has posted six consecutive victories since its lone defeat, an 11-point setback versus Texas. The Jayhawks, who are 24-1 overall and 9-1 in conference action, continue to trail the Longhorns by one game in the league standings. Considering the fact that Kansas is a perfect 7-0 in true road games, don't expect the team to be intimidated by the Manhattan crowd.
On Saturday, Kansas State suffered a heart-breaking 58-56 loss to Colorado on the road, halting a modest two-game win streak for the Wildcats. They are now just 4-6 in Big 12 play, overshadowing a 16-9 overall record. On a positive note, 12 of their 14 home games have resulted in wins, an obvious reason for confidence tonight.
Two weeks ago, Kansas crushed K-State by a 90-66 final, and the Jayhawks own a commanding 181-90 series lead over their in-state rivals.
There is no doubt that Kansas enters tonight's game significantly less than 100 percent. Josh Selby, the team's standout freshman guard, is expected to miss the tilt with an ankle injury, and his 12.0 ppg will be missed. Thomas Robinson (8.9 ppg, 6.4 rpg) will also be held out of action with a knee injury. Fortunately for head coach Bill Self, brothers Marcus and Markieff Morris will be in the lineup. Marcus is scoring 16.9 ppg on 60.9 percent shooting from the floor, and he is ripping down 7.0 rpg. As for Markieff, he provides 13.2 ppg and 8.5 rpg while shooting 59.4 percent. The Jayhawks are generating 83.9 ppg on 52.3 percent field goal efficiency, and they are limiting opponents to 64.0 ppg on 38.8 percent shooting. Marcus Morris paced four double-digit scorers for the Jayhawks in an 89-66 victory over Iowa State on Saturday, as he finished with 16 points and 11 rebounds. Markieff Morris added 14 points, 11 rebounds and six assists, while Tyshawn Taylor tallied 14 points and six assists as well. Brady Morningstar pitched in 13 points for Kansas, which shot 51.9 percent from the field and finished with 24 assists against nine turnovers.
Against Colorado on Saturday, Kansas State struggled mightily at the offensive end, shooting a mere 30.8 percent from the floor. Jamar Samuels tallied 13 points to go along with seven rebounds, while standout guard Jacob Pullen was held to 12 points on 4-of-12 shooting. Rodney McGruder pitched in 11 points for the Wildcats, who got only five points from Curtis Kelly. The troubled Kelly is currently the subject of a Kansas State Athletic Department investigation that could lead to his dismissal from the team, although a timetable for deciding whether or not he violated rules for substance abuse is unclear. Through 25 games, Pullen is netting 18.0 ppg to go along with 82 assists and 35 steals. McGruder checks in with 11.0 ppg as the only other double-digit scorer for the Wildcats, who are posting 72.8 ppg while allowing 65.7 ppg to opponents.
In what is sure to be a hard-fought battle from start to finish, give a narrow edge to the banged up Jayhawks. Slowing down the Morris brothers will be a tough task for the Wildcats.
GAME NOTES: The Kansas Jayhawks have lost just one game all season, and they continue their quest for the Big 12 Conference regular season title with tonight's contest at Kansas State.
FACTS & STATS: Site: Bramlage Coliseum (12,528) -- Manhattan, Kansas. Television: ESPN. Home Record: Kansas 13-1, Kansas State 12-2. Away Record: Kansas 7-0, Kansas State 3-5. Neutral Record: Kansas 4-0, Kansas State 1-2. Conference Record: Kansas 9-1, Kansas State 4-6. Series Record: Kansas leads, 181-90.

Bismarck isn't known as some sort of coffee roasting Mecca. But there's an entrepreneur here who's dedicated to helping others appreciate the subtle difference between batches of beans.
Inside a storage unit in north Bismarck a young business owner is blending his love for coffee and his love for his home state, to put something unique on supermarket shelves.
Brian Jackson says that coffee used to be just something to wake him up in the morning, but now it's his passion. And a year after starting Mighty Missouri Coffee Company he still loves to make each roast his own."Even if two different roasters have the same beans from the same exact farm, and the same exact location, so it should taste the same even the way that we roast. It's going to have really different flavors," says owner Brian Jackson. Jackson orders coffee beans from all over the world and roasts them in a 50 pound roaster. He showed us the process on a smaller roaster, and says this is how he tests the beans before he orders them. And although the raw beans are from exotic locations, he says his home state has a lot of influence on his coffee. "I grew up in Hazen and Beulah, and a big part of it is incorporating that rugged North Dakota wild life style"Jackson says one of the most important part of his business is called the cupping process, in which you can identify the true flavors of the coffee"What we really do is focus on the region that it comes from and then really try to promote the flavor of that bean by roasting it in its own way," says Jackson. One of the things Jackson says is important to Mighty Missouri Coffee Co is being able to give back to the countries that he orders the beans from.
