Mark Craze steps down 'with pride' as CEO of Havas Media Group
Mark Craze, chief executive of Havas Media Group in the UK, is leaving the French marketing group after nine years to explore other "exciting new projects".
Mark Craze: to leave Havas Media Group next month
Craze will exit the group at the end of next month. It follows the development of Havas Media Group into a more integrated, simplified structure over the last 18 months, which resulted in the rebranding of MPG MediaContacts and the exit of former leader, Marc Mendoza.
As part of a plan to formalise the close links between Havas Media Group's Paris HQ and London, global managing director, Dominique Delport will now also become the UK chairman.
Craze said: "It has been wonderful to be with the group during a period of significant growth and expansion. We believe we have created something special and unique.
"We now have a phenomenal talent pool of over 600 people working in an integrated collaborative way across all disciplines to deliver the smartest solutions for our clients.
"I leave with great pride and faith in an inspirational team who are all committed, digital savvy and passionate, and I will miss working with them. But at the same time, I am looking to the future and exploring some exciting new projects.
Delport's formal UK leadership role cements the direct bridge between Havas' Paris and London operations. This week, the group's digital creative agency, AIS, will join Havas Media and Arena and relocate into the so-called "Havas Village" office on St Martin's Lane.
Prior to joining Havas, Craze was at Aegis Media for 15 years, rising to group chief executive.
A regular at the Ivy Club and consummate networker, Craze, aged 54, has no plans to retire. He joins cousin Mendoza and former Aegis predecessor Nigel Sharrocks in being an experienced, senior talent for hire in the evolving media landscape.
Delport said: "Mark has been an outstanding leader of the UK group and has been instrumental in our progress in this key market. Whilst we are very sad to see him go, we also respect his decision to take his career into a new phase, and we wish him every success."
Havas Media UK is led by chief executive Paul Frampton, and Arena Media is run by chief executive Pedro Avery.

SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. -- Following Friday's opening Little League World Series loss, Cumberland American manager Dave Belisle promised his team would play better Saturday against home-town favorite Clinton County, Pa.
He was right. But it was not enough to save Cumberland's historic season.
Christopher Wright pitched 4 2/3 brilliant innings of six-hit baseball and repeatedly threw well under pressure Saturday night at Lamade Stadium, but Pennsylvania pitcher Alex Garbrick and Tyler McCloskey stymied Cumberland, combining on a three-hit as Cumberland lost, 2-0.
When the wave of transactions swept through Gillette Stadium at the start of training camp, two names expectedly stood out among the rest.
Albert Haynesworth and Chad Ochocinco.
The former, no stranger to controversy on and off the field, has not practiced since Aug. 4 because of an undisclosed injury. The latter, his first-quarter touchdown in the Patriots' 31-14 preseason win over the Buccaneers on Thursday notwithstanding, continues to build a rapport with Tom Brady.
I foresee another New England newcomer having a more immediate impact than both Haynesworth and Ochocinco.
SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. — The Cumberland American Little League all-stars have made comebacks a summer-long staple.
Now they hope to stage their best comeback yet.
Braydon Salzman, Nick Pratto and Ryo Takada combined on a three-hit shutout and the offense produced up and down the lineup as California blanked Cumberland, 11-0 Friday at Lamade Stadium in Cumberland's Little League World Series debut. The West champions, unbeaten this summer, move into Sunday's winner bracket to meet either Clinton County, Pa. or La Grange, Ken.
PAWTUCKET — The PawSox locker room has looked like a bus station this week, with players coming down I-95 from Portland or heading to Boston.
Friday's transit report led with the news of third baseman Will Middlebrooks's promotion to Pawtucket from Portland. Middlebrooks effectively replaces Ryan Lavarnway, who joined Boston's lineup on Thursday.
PAWTUCKET – The Pawtucket Red Sox keep finding ways to win games, even as their 24-man playing roster is adjusted seemingly every day according to the organizational needs.
On Friday night, Pawtucket gained a split of its four-game series with Columbus as new addition Greg Smith hurled one-run baseball over seven innings during a 7-1 victory. Smith had been released by Scranton/Wilkes-Barre last week after compiling a 3-3 mark in 13 games for the Yankees.
As the players and coaches in the Cumberland American camp discovered this week, there's nothing little about the Little League World Series.
On the surface, competing in this grand spectacle – how else would you describe an event that includes participants hailing from around the country and the world? – can seem overwhelming. ESPN cameras are practically everywhere, which CALL manager Dave Belisle hinted at earlier this week upon stating, "All of the eyes of the world are on Williamsport."
PAWTUCKET – For a team that has been almost flawless this season, the Columbus Clippers were anything but on Wednesday night.
The Clippers, the top team record-wise in the International League, committed three costly errors that resulted in four unearned runs. Such gift-wrapping tendencies proved to be difference as the Pawtucket Red Sox remain in first place in the I.L. North for another day after posting a 5-2 win before 7,010 at McCoy Stadium.
Pawtucket stands a game up on second-place Lehigh Valley, which defeated Rochester, 3-1.
Mike Hazen's role with the Boston Red Sox may have expanded, but make no mistake: he's still very much in touch with what's moving and shaking down on the farm.
Promoted to vice president of player development prior to the season, a position that involves overseeing the minor-league operation and amateur scouting, Hazen spoke Wednesday about some of the storylines that have crept up over the past 4 ½ months as they relate to the Pawtucket Red Sox.
SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. – Dave Belisle has long been a standout hockey coach at Mount St. Charles.
But for the next few days, he's just a kid again.
The 14 members of the Cumberland American Little League team have carried Belisle on the ride of his life this summer. This week the ride has reached its final destination, the ultimate destination for every Little Leaguer – the Little League World Series. The Series does not only exist on television to these players and coaches anymore. They are here, they are experiencing it and they are enjoying every moment.
It didn't take long for Dave Belisle and his Cumberland American Little Leaguers to become immersed in the "Christmas in August" fervor that typically surfaces in Williamsport, Pa. around this time each year.

The No. 14 University of Wisconsin men's hockey team (5-6-1, 2-4-0 WCHA) battled back from a two-goal deficit to tie No.6 Michigan State (8-3-2, 4-2-0 CCHA) on Saturday night as part of the College Hockey Showcase in East Lansing, Mich. Freshman Scott Gudmanson (Sherwood Park, Alberta) earned the draw in just his second game as a Badger.
Neither team was able to score in overtime, although Wisconsin fired three shots at Lerg, while Gudman stopped two in the extra stanza. Gudmanson ended the night with 23 saves for Wisconsin. MSU's Lerg stopped 33 of the Badgers' shots.
The Badgers were 0-for-3 on the power play, and held Michigan State to 1-for-6 on their power-play attempts.

Although we were warned that the tub size is small, the machine is perfect for us (two people). We run a load of dishes every other day and we cook daily. When we had a full size machine it would sometimes take a week to fill. The machine is efficient and very quiet when running. We love the stainless steel tub that just wipes off for easy cleaning. We are glad we purchased this model.

this dishwasher works well is quiet but the top shelf for glasses fits about six glasses deep. I thought the drawer wasn't pulled out all the way but it was. It's 3/4 the size of the bottom pull out section. A lot smaller than the dishwasher I had in this spot. But, there weren't many to choose from in this height (to fit under my existing counter)

Comments about GE 24" Black Dishwasher:
Had this installed with my new home construction and no complaints. It is a perfect size for my family (just wife and me) but might be too small for a bigger one. Only drawback is that, even on the 'heated dry' setting, there is always some residual water on the inside door that sometimes splash the dishes as you open it. Dishes are well cleaned though...
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Very Quiet And LOOKS GREAT
By eddw
from Example: New York, NY
I've had many other brands before but they don't compare to GE. This dishwasher is so quiet and it has a stainless steel look so you don't have to pay for the expensive dishwashers
Its ok
By Smelly1234
from Tucson, AZ
I like that the buttons are on top and hidden because my child likes to push them. I am not a fan of often finding soap stuck in the detergent dispenser still. I used action packs (which are promoted on the cover of soap dispenser) and I find part of the action packs still in the washer soap compartment after they cycle has completed
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I bought this dishwasher a little over a week ago to replace my other GE diswasher that after many years of use bit the bullit, This new dishwasher works wonderful and is easy to operate Thanks
Quiet and efficient
By jsmith9244
Appliance came with the house, been great so far, very quiet when running
Awesome features.
By Lisa562
from Lakewood, CA, United States
I bought this dishwasher 6 weeks ago. We love it because of easy loading racks. You can raise the top rack up for larger items on the bottom. I like the baskets for the silverware. It hold the utensils in firmly and you can put small dishes into the basket and snap down the lid. That way you don't have to worry about small items flying out. I like the liquid rinse aid container because you fill it up with a couple ounces of Rinse Aid. And close the lid and it has a clear button to show you if the liquid is low. It's a very quite machine that you forget it's on.
Big improvement

I bought it a couple of months ago and have had no problems. Put a casserole dish in with baked on.. stuff.. and it was spotless! It's also very quiet. You'll hardly know it's running.
does the job
By xplorer08
from Myrtle Beach, SC, United States
This was the upgrade appliance in our townhouse. We have used the dishwasher numerous times in the few months that we have had it. On the plus side: It cleans the dishes/glasses/silverware well although by habit I always rinse them before putting them in the dishwasher and it is quiet. I have used the setting for heavily soiled when the the dishwasher was full to capacity, and some people had put in dishes that weren't rinsed and that worked well. On the minus side: However, I noticed that if "heated dry" is not used or the rinse aide was not full that they silverware and top rack dishes were very wet. *(I don't know what the rinse aide with have to do with it, just an observation) Even with utilizing the "heated dry" the silverware rack (although not the silverware itself) is dripping. The dishwasher dispenser door is a bit flimsy, and I have not found that there is an additional section for heavily soiled dishes where you could add additional detergent. I would probably check on the price of the next model up and see if the additional cost would be worth the additional dispenser, and a more substantially made unit. Hope this helps

Community Colleges Chancellor David Armstrong to Become Broward Community College's Next President
TALLAHASSEE – Florida Community Colleges Chancellor J. David Armstrong, Jr. today announced that he was selected by the Broward Community College (BCC) District Board of Trustees to serve as the college's next president. Armstrong has accepted the offer pending contract negotiation and plans to begin his new position on July 9.
"I am excited to be going to Broward Community College to work with faculty and staff to open the doors of opportunity to the American Dream through an outstanding college education," said Armstrong. "The tradition of academic quality is unsurpassed at Broward, with many highly successful alumni not only in Broward County, but also across our nation."
For nearly 10 years, Armstrong has led Florida's community college system. During his tenure, Florida's community colleges have:
- Increased access to postsecondary education, in particular for underserved populations.
- Developed a new master plan.
- Secured equitable funding from the Florida Legislature.
- Formed partnerships with major business organizations.
- Began developing bachelor's degrees targeted to high demand, critical shortage areas in Florida's workforce.
- Met the need for new community college leaders through the Chancellor's Leadership Seminar. Now in its seventh year, the Seminar is a nationally recognized professional development experience for mid-level college administrators who have the potential to become community college presidents. Several new college presidents are graduates of the program.
"Florida's community college system is nationally-recognized – a testament to the leadership and vision of Chancellor Armstrong," said Education Commissioner Jeanine Blomberg. "We appreciate the many years of service David has given to our state and his dedication to higher education. I know he will continue his advocacy for community colleges and I look forward to working with him in his new role."
Blomberg said she and the State Board of Education will decide on the selection process for the chancellor's position.
Prior to his selection as Community Colleges Chancellor, Armstrong served as executive director for the State Board of Community Colleges. He began his community college career 23 years ago at Pensacola Junior College, moving to the state office in Tallahassee approximately 20 years ago.
Armstrong holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in social science from the University of Montevallo (Ala.) and a Master of Management Science degree from Troy State University (now Troy University). He has completed the coursework and comprehensive examination in Florida State University's Higher Education Leadership doctoral program, where he focused his studies on higher education and organizational effectiveness.

DON BROOKS, age 19, and ANTOINE BROOKS, age 21, both residents of New Orleans, Louisiana, were charged today in a 9-count superseding indictment. In addition to the charges brought in the original indictment, the charges the superseding indictment include an additional charge of another discharging of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime and the killing of Tamira Johnson in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime, announced U. S. Attorney Dana J. Boente. The charges in the original indictment included conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute two-hundred and eighty (280) grams or more of cocaine base ("crack") and a quantity of marijuana, conspiracy to use and discharge firearms in furtherance of crimes of violence and drug trafficking crimes, discharging a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime, and the murder of Harry Howard and Lamont Phillips.
Based upon the ongoing investigation, evidence was presented to the Grand Jury that on September 23, 2011, Tamira Johnson was walking to the store with her 13 year old son. As Tamira and her son were walking, DON and ANTOINE BROOKS drove by in a SUV and opened fire with a .40 caliber handgun intending to kill a rival drug dealer who was standing on the corner. DON and ANTOINE BROOKS not only shot the rival drug dealer, but also Tamira Johnson who died at the scene from her injuries.
If convicted of the new charges, DON and ANTOINE BROOKS face, as to new Count 5, a minimum term of imprisonment of five (5) years and a maximum term of life imprisonment, five (5) years of supervised release following any term of imprisonment, and a $250,000 fine, and as to the new Count 6, a maximum sentence of life imprisonment or death, five (5) years of supervised release following any term of imprisonment, and a $250,000 fine. The penalties for the original charges remain the same.
U. S. Attorney Boente reiterated that the superseding indictment is merely a charge and that the guilt of the defendants must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt.
The case was investigated by the Drug Enforcement Administration and New Orleans Police Department. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U. S. Attorney Sean Toomey.

Boeing gets $2 billion, 5-year "performance-based logistics" contract to sustain C-17 airlifter: http://bit.ly/Th6xPX SydneyFreedberg
A year has passed since Congress passed and President Obama signed into law the Budget Control Act-the legislation mandating sequestration. Funding cuts that once seemed politically remote now loom large for leaders increasingly anxious about the impact $1.2 trillion in automatic budget reductions will have upon their respective districts and states. An estimated two million jobs at risk is a possibility no lawmaker can ignore.
Sequestration threatens the country's ability to allow those in uniform to do their jobs. To understand what it means in real terms, look at the Air Force. Over the past decade, the service has been hit with numerous cuts and now the 2013 budget risks pushing airmen over the brink. There comes a point when people simply cannot do more with less. Unless Congress passes a sustainable and viable alternative to the Budget Control Act, challenges arising in the Air Force will be mirrored throughout the Army, Navy and Marine Corps — curtailing the number of key policy options upon which our nation's leaders depend.

FARNBOROUGH AIR SHOW: This is it. We are wrapping up our coverage of the 2012 show. The grey and wet skies that blanketed the show for most of the week stand as a metaphor for the defense business.
One industry observer, with more than 20 years of air shows under his belt, told me this morning that this Farnborough was the worst for news he'd ever seen. The companies didn't put out many press releases compared to years past. Most of the press had vanished by today, with only we trade reporters clinging hard to the hope there might be a morsel of something to tease out. Keep reading →
FARNBOROUGH AIR SHOW: The sun shone — sometimes. Well, once in a while. But regardless of the weather here crowds turned out to watch the planes, especially the Boeing 787 Dreamliner. Its sleek composite frame complemented the subtle bend of the wings as the plane took off and banked.
The 787′s pilot was praised by the announcer (yes, they have an announcer at the air show who tells people what plane is flying, offers technical explanation of the maneuvers and discusses the pilots' qualifications and special skills) for staying within 100 feet of his programmed flight path even as he banked sharply and wandered through the clouds.

EXCLUSIVE: HASC Try To Protect Air Guard May Mess Up C-5 Plans, Association WarnsBy Sydney J. Freedberg Jr.
WASHINGTON: Both chambers of Congress have resoundingly rejected the administration's proposed cuts to the Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve – but the language that the House passed is so sweeping that it may inadvertently block the modernization of the very Guard and Reserve forces it was written to protect, according to Hill sources and the powerful National Guard Association of the US.

Guard, Reserve Fight For Modern Hardware; JLTV, C-5A, C-17 At StakeBy Sydney J. Freedberg Jr.
WASHINGTON: The military Reserves and National Guard have spent a decade operating with unprecedented intensity alongside the regular active-duty force in Afghanistan and Iraq. Now, as budget cuts loom, their leaders are fighting hard to keep the funding needed to keep their edge in both training and equipment. Going back to the sleepy days of "weekend warriors" rehearsing with hand-me-down hardware is not an option, they argued: The nation needs them ready, and a new generation of Guard and Reserve troops accustomed to real-world operations won't accept anything less.

HARTFORD, CT: Aircraft engine maker Pratt & Whitney proudly predicts it will double its revenues this decade from $12 billion in 2010 to $24 billion in 2020 — but the company admits it will have to get through some lean years first. On both the commercial and military sides, key Pratt & Whitney programs are going away, and new engines using new technology for new aircraft are coming online, but there's a gap before they pick up, a gap that slow economic growth and downsizing defense budgets threaten to lengthen. The single most critical factor: whether the troubled F-35 Joint Strike Fighter materializes more or less on time. Keep reading →
[updated 9:05 am Wednesday with comment from Pratt & Whitney President David Hess]
This factory builds jet engines for high-performance fighters — an engine a week for the F-35 alone — but the armed forces might want to take a look at an innovation on Pratt & Whitney's commercial side. The new technology, called a "geared turbofan," was motivated by rising fuel costs and the airlines' demand for more fuel-efficient engines, itself no small matter for the military. As a byproduct, however, the new engines are also more resistant to a hazard that's a much bigger deal at rugged forward airbases than tidy civilian airports: Call it the wrath of FOD, foreign object damage, the term of art for the ugly, often explosive things that happen when a jet engine accidentally sucks in anything from loose gravel to Canadian geese.

I rushed out to Ulta after reading great reviews on here and applied this top coat to my two-day-old mani on Tuesday. It went on smooth and glossy, but I wanted to give it a fair review, so I waited to see how long the shine would last before dulling. I had been using Orly's Top 2 Bottom as both a base coat and top coat, and though it's amazingly shiny, I'm left with dingy, dull nails if I don't reapply it after two days. But through numerous water baths (I work at a salon), Thanksgiving dinner preparation, and housecleaning, my nails are just as glossy on Sunday as they were at first with Super Shiney. My only complaint (as someone previously posted) is that it doesn't self-level and the bottle is small for the price. I also have a little wear on my edges, but that's nothing abnormal. As long as my nails are shiny, I don't mind fixing a few nicks. So, I've found my HG top coat. If you want long-lasting, designer-gloss nails, Super Shiney is for you!
I finally did get to try this, and I must say...I am very impressed. It really does give your nails a fabulous shine, better than any top coat I've tried in the past. It takes a while to dry because it isn't a fast-drying formula, but honestly...it doesn't take any longer to dry than any other brands of nail polishes I have used. That said, I was just a bit disappointed in the fact that it does not self level to correct those little mistakes one makes when applying polish, ie., streaks, bubbles, etc. I will definitely purchase this product again just the same. I do love the shine, and I'm also very pleased that it is big 3 free.
This is probably about the shiniest topcoat out there i'd say, ive currently got this on my pedicure and seche vite on my manicure and it's shinier than the seche vite. I use this when i am taking time over my nails in the morning or afternoon as it's not a quick dry one but although im careful for a while i didn't find the drying time as bad i thought. This is also great for freshening any mani/pedi and adding that freshly done shine. Would buy again if ever runs out.
I love this product. I started using it years ago on the recommendation of a manicurist, and have kept using it, stockpiling it when I can find it (I've been lucky enough to get a salon sized bottle really cheaply, which will keep me going for a while). I think it's much better than other top coats I've used, and I've tried other ones but keep coming back to this one - it makes my nails so shiny, doesn't absorb the colour from the polish like the OPI ones I've used have, and lengthens the lifespan of my manicures. Will definitely keep repurchasing.

LOVE THIS! It dries pretty quick, keeps my nails chip-free for a week and makes my nails looks like glass because they're so shiney
More reviews by AbsolutelyCold
This is the only top coat I use. Even though I wanted to try the matte nail color trend I couldn't stop myself from using this top coat. I love how shiny my nails look with this. They look wet and fancy with this stuff; I ALWAYS have a back up bottle in my fridge. Plus, it makes a mani -or- pedi last a very long time.
I bought this for touching up in between manicures and not as my topcoat over a fresh mani. It is indeed super shiney and dries very hard. However, the purple tinted polish ruins the color of my natural manis. It doesn't matter so much if worn over a very dark polish but it completely changed Bubble Bath. I noticed the difference right away and I did not like it :-( I think I'll stick to my Chanel topcoat for touching up my mani. At least it's clear.

Holy cow, I can't believe how awesome this brand is. I have tried so many brands of top coats and base coats (OPI, Seche, Orly, Sally Hansen), and Creative is BY FAR the superior brand. I figured I'd try this brand but it would be just like everything else. Boy, was I wrong! I used Creative Sticky as a base, then 2 coats of OPI, then two coats of Creative Super Shiney. Every evening I apply another thin coat of Super Shiney to extend the wear. I'm on day 5 and my nails look awesome. Very minimal chipping throughout the week - nothing that wasn't easy to spot re-apply. With other brands, by day 5 I would consistently have moderate chipping and often shrinkage where the paint was actually peeling off. But not with this! The Super Shiney is not overly thick and doesn't seem to cause shrinkage or excessive build up when reapplied daily. I'm extremely impressed, and can easily say that the combination of Creative Sticky and Creative Super Shiney is truly a HG!

my HG top coat!!! LOVE this product! It keeps my nails super shiny & chip free for DAYS. My usual routine is a base coat of CND Stickey, 2 coats of OPI color, wait 10 minutes & then apply my Super Shiney, wait another 5 minutes & finish with CND Dry and Shine and I'm out the door. I've never had a problem with smudges, nicks, or sheet marks IF I follow that routine. CND Dry & Shine is a MUST IMO with this product.

Huge Rave! As great as Seche Vite can be, this is better. SV just gets too thick too quickly (even using Restore) and only rarely do I master the application so that all 10 nails come out without clumps or bubbles. It's just not worth it. This was much thinner, so it applied easily, and combined with the CND Dry and Shine, it dried quickly. I am really, really pleased. I like the quick dry topcoats, but they seem to cause my polish to crack after a couple of days. This is the best of both worlds - definitely one of the shiniest topcoats I have ever seen, and it dries quickly. My nails look and feel like glass - it's awesome!

text: The pilot of the float-equipped airplane aborted 2 takeoffs to the north from a float pond, after failing to become airborne at his no-go decision point. He said the wind was variable, and he initiated a third takeoff to the south. The airplane lifted off prior to reaching the no-go point, but he felt he was not going to clear the trees at the shoreline. He said the wind may have changed direction or quit, and the airplane was near stall airspeed. He said he had no option but to increase the pitch attitude, at which time the airplane stalled, and impacted the pond.

Quora Launches iPad App, Hints at Growth
Quora more popular than ever, says CEO.
Barack Obama will now answer your questions -- on Quora. The President joined the question-and-answer social network on Monday, posting two answers about the Affordable Care Act, often referred to as Obamacare. Obama also became the first user to get a verified Quora account. See also: How President Obama Ended Up on 'Between Two Ferns' Obama's answers on Quora seem to be part of an aggressive push to promote his health care law and get more young people to sign up.
Quora is hoping to attract more content creators by giving them an inside look at traffic to their posts. The question-and-answer service announced a new analytics tool Tuesday that enables its writers to monitor the number of views, upvotes (Quora's version of Likes) and shares their posts and answers receive on the site.
The man behind Facebook's audio explains how it was created.
In an era in which online discussion boards can sometimes become contentious cesspools of bickering or breeding grounds for misinformed political rantings, it's refreshing when an online forum becomes positive and inspirational.
It's been just a little over a year since Steve Jobs passed away. And while his legacy lives on through Apple products, stories about the man himself also continue to be shared. In fact, 2012's most popular question on the ask-and-answer site Quora was, "What are the best stories about people randomly meeting Steve Jobs?" Answers to this question offer up a few life lessons from the man in the black turtleneck.
Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan is having quite the busy social media weekend: On Saturday, he hosted a live Google Hangout with supporters. Late Monday morning, he posted a thread on question-and-answer site Quora that, at least at first, largely flew under Internet users' respective radars. Ryan's Quora post is a six-paragraph assault on Barack Obama for his "misguided policies and failed leadership." "Right now, 23 million men and women are struggling for work," writes Ryan.
Bing is continuing to build out its "social search" functionality with the integration of Quora, a question-and-answer forum particularly popular among tech industry professionals. Bing first began using Facebook data in its searches in October 2010, and introduced a social sidebar in May 2012. When the sidebar launch, the Microsoft-owned search engine promised users they would soon be able to tap into many of their social networks to help them find what they're looking for.
Much like Twitter, you can now follow your favorite bloggers and websites on Quora. And now, also much like Twitter, you can paste a follow button onto your own website. The content-sharing and expert-questioning site allows users to comment on follow topics or pose questions to other users -- and it now has an off-site follow button.
Whether it opens the doors of knowledge or turns us into lazy researchers, the web can instantly gratify most inquiries. So when we wondered which questions weighed heaviest on the minds of Internet users this year, we naturally turned to the same Q&A sites that they did. We asked Formspring, Ask.com, Quora and ChaCha to compile lists of their most popular questions of 2011.
Quora's relationship with the Q&A format is no longer exclusive. As of Tuesday, you can also use the site to arrange content from around the web on Pinterest-like boards. While the move seems like an odd one for a startup most often defined as a Q&A platform, it also opens up an opportunity for Quora to become the most prominent interest-based network -- a chance the platform didn't stand while married to Q&A.
Q&A site Quora launched a new feature on Monday that has nothing to do with Q's or A's. "Boards" function like Pinterest's "pinboards," allowing users to collect and organize web content under topics they create.
Quora, the social Q&A service that made waves earlier this year, is finally releasing its official iPhone app. Quora for iPhone retains most of the functionality of its desktop web version. Users can browse their activity feed, view questions, follow questions, vote on answers, add answers and add questions. It also includes a notifications feed, search functionality and the ability to manage your profile and view others.
Social Q&A service Quora has rolled out several major changes in an effort to make it easier for people to find relevant and useful content. "With the range of topics now covered on Quora, people often need to switch between different contexts and may miss content that they're interested in," Quora engineer Edomnd Lau explained on Quora.com.

Do you remember where you were when you first heard about Quora? I posed this question to a few ad agency social media aficionados -- people such agencies paid good money to stay on top of the latest trends in such technology -- and no one had a good answer.
The Spark of Genius Series highlights a unique feature of startups and is made possible by Microsoft BizSpark. If you would like to have your startup considered for inclusion, please see the details here. Name: Opinionaided Quick Pitch: Opinionaided polls a crowd to answer your questions. Genius Idea: Making Q&A real time, social, opinion-based and addictive. At some point after Quora launched in 2009, the Q&A concept moved from the realm of stodgy forums to burgeoning tech trend.
Location-based social network Loopt introduced Qs, its play at real-time, local micro-reviews, at Wednesday's Where 2.0 Conference in San Francisco. Think of Loopt Qs as Quora meets location-based networking meets Yelp. The idea behind Loopt Qs is to allow users to get useful information about a place in real time. We talked to Loopt's co-founder and CEO Sam Altman about the Qs and why this is part of Loopt's future direction.
Quora's beautifully designed, elegantly executed Q&A might be burning up the blogs, but how is the site performing in the real world? Web analytics firm KISSmetrics has just published an infographic about "The Wonderful World of Quora." The charts show some interesting details, such as the growth of Quora's userbase as well as the upward trend of monthly uniques. KISSmetrics also points out the myriad ways to use Quora beyond just asking and answering questions.
Google's announcement that it's adding a "+1" button to incorporate sentiment into its search results raised a lot of questions not addressed in the company's official announcement. We spoke with Google rep Jim Prosser about +1. Here are some of our questions answered. What other questions do you have about the new product? Why is Google doing this? Aside from the fact that it represents another way to compete with Facebook, Google's official line is that it will make search results more germane.
At some point after Quora launched in 2009, the Q&A concept has moved from the realm of stodgy forums to burgeoning tech trend. Meanwhile, hoards of startups are taking cues from buzz-generating location-based services like Foursquare and Gowalla by adding location to everything from to do lists to shopping. It's no surprise that the latest generation of startups is combining these two concepts. These six new location-based Q&A services send questions about places to locals likely to have the answers.
Brands and businesses are looking for ways to leverage Facebook's recently unveiled Questions tool in ways that differ from what they're already doing on Q&A sites such as Quora, Yahoo Answers and LocalMind. The feature, which Facebook rolled out to all users March 24, functions as a recommendation engine.
Facebook released a new version of its Questions feature on Thursday, the result of nearly a year of beta testing. The new version of Questions takes the focus off public inquiries (a service already dominated by Q&A sites like Quora) and instead focuses on soliciting recommendations from friends.

Google has launched major updates to Social Search, integrating information from Twitter, Flickr and Quora throughout its search engine. The search giant launched Social Search in 2009; the feature integrates search results from your friends at the bottom of the search page. It utilizes social profiles connected to your Google Account to deliver items like photo or blog results that come from your friends.
TED, an organization best known for its annual gathering of top thought leaders, launched a social discussion platform on its website today. The move is part of a larger effort to spread, as TED's motto goes, "ideas worth spreading" beyond the 1,300-attendee, five-day conference. "TED Conversations" will be a question and answer forum similar to Stack Overflow or Quora, but with a few important differences.
This weekend, Facebook rolled out a new photos interface, we found a way to check up on cellphone providers and we caught a glimpse of our world slowed down 100 times. And that was just the beginning. As you were perhaps getting ready for Valentine's Day, we were watching the world for you. Beyond that, there were infographics, videos, galleries and surprises every which way.
Looking for a job in social media or the tech space? You probably already have a LinkedIn account and maybe even Twitter. If you're really serious about personal branding, you might even have your own Facebook Page.
Quora is a new social question and answer website that's receiving plenty of buzz. It functions on a simple premise: Ask a question (either to the community or an individual) and wait for the answers. You can also follow questions, topics, or people and read all the updates related to them on your home page. It's simple enough, but beyond that, some of Quora's features can get murky.
Quora, the suddenly and inexplicably hot Q&A startup, has just hired a new staffer with a huge body of experience in startup finance: Marc Bodnick, formerly a partner at private equity firm Elevation Partners. The current team is heavy on engineers and designers -- particularly a handful of ex-Facebook geniuses -- who have labored long and relatively quietly to produce a beautiful and functional product in terms of UI.
Translation software company Babylon will make a social play on Wednesday when it launches a new online community for language learning. Babylon is touting the new site as the "Quora of Linguistics." Like the popular Q&A community, each user will have a profile that lists their questions and responses. They can also vote responses up or down, search existing responses and "like" content using their Facebook profiles.
As president of Geben Communication, Heather Whaling provides public relations and social media services to small- and mid-size businesses. She's also a public relations blogger, speaker and co-moderator of #pr20chat on Twitter. Quora -- the community-driven Q&A repository -- is certainly getting a lot of buzz right now. Even though it's known as a "social network for knowledge," Quora isn't just for the tech elite.

It's Ronalgo
Cristiano Ronaldo has dropped a Champions League bombshell by revealing he will consider his United future after the final. The Red Devils, who face Chelsea in Moscow next Wednesday, believed Ronaldo was secure at Old Trafford for the long term. But, yesterday, the Portugal winger, 23, hinted at a summer move to Spain. Ronaldo said: "I am happy here but let's see what happens after the Champions League final. I am feeling calm here. I'm happy here but in the future I don't know. I've said millions of times that I'd love to play in Spain but it's one thing to dream and another thing for it to be a reality." Ronaldo signed a new five-year contract last April and United boss Alex Ferguson will be determined to hang on to him. But Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon would break the bank to land the 41-goal ace.
Neil Custis, The Sun
Ahead of the final in Moscow next Wednesday, Nicolas Anelka has admitted that Ronaldo could wreck Chelsea's Champions League dream. "Ronaldo is brilliant," said the striker. "He shines when he has the whole team playing around him but he also shines when he is alone. He can often make the difference on his own, so it is hard."
In The Sun, Michael Carrick pays tribute to team-mate Rio Ferdinand, hailing him "the best defender in the world."
The Daily Mail claims Barcelona want to strike a £4million deal with United to buy back unsettled central defender Gerard Pique, 21. The tabloid also reckons United could also solve their search for a right-back with a cut-price move for transfer-listed Miguel, of cash-strapped Valencia.

- Good place!OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 14/11/2014Superb service, great food, nice decor. However, very noisySpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent foodfarsideDined on 7/11/2014The meat was outstanding (and so were the side dishes as well as the wine). Also the service was excellent. The only aspect that was in my humble opinion less than perfect was the fact that it was a bit noisy. But it was a Friday night, and we were sitting next to some speakers with music. Otherwise I can absolutely recommend it. It is not a cheap restaurant, but the prices fit to the prime quality of the food. It was not my first time at Gauchos, and it wont be my last.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Just incrediblejessrempsDined on 6/11/2014Went here for a business lunch the other day and everything from the food (steaks, sides, desserts), service, and atmosphere was impeccable. My guest said several times it may have been the best steak (we both had the Churrasco De Lomo) he's ever eaten. Highly recommend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Business MealClaimsBore1Dined on 28/10/2014Never disappoints and always great steaks with great wines to match. Service was very attentive without being in your face. As this is downstairs, I would come here for dinner rather than lunch otherwise fantastic. ThanksSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Very tasteful!TruffelsDined on 10/10/2014We had been to gouchos i manchester before and was very satisfied then so we had high expectations, wich were met! Good location, even though the old church i manchester were nicer. Really good food and we had a excellent wine to it, wich we picked our selfes. The service was good but to much, we got interupted quite a few times so some of the romance got put to side. The price is on the heavier side if you want a full dinner with wine. Overall a very nice evening, dinner and experience!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- JayDeeDined on 10/10/2014Very enjoyable - I would highly recommend this restaurant.Special Features:
- OTT ServiceFoodforthoughtDined on 9/10/2014It sounds churlish to say so, but the service was too attentive! It got to a point where it was very tempting to tell the serving staff to go away and leave us alone to get on with our meal as they kept interrupting our conversation! But other than that it was very good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Was looked after from the startBeautylastsDined on 4/10/2014Thank you very much to the staff on Saturday 4th October for making my friends birthday very enjoyable. Greeted at the door by a beautiful friendly women and an extremly friendly guy. Taken straight to our tables where we were introduced to Simona our waitress. Very friendly and informed us about dinner. Food portions are huge and I struggled to finish my main with even having a starter. We were incredibly full so didn't fancy desert but as it was my friends birthday Simona brought out a small selection of cakes and a sparkler for her. Thd whole evening was perfect and we left with very full Tummya and with the help from the lady at the front desk directions to the bar we were going to. No need to think twice bout going here it's amazingSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 2/10/2014overpriced. empty restaurant. zero atmosphere not helped by being underground. shall not return
- Dinner was fantasticAPerfectFilletDined on 13/9/2014Our lovely server explained everything on the menu and even brought out the cuts for everyone to see before ordering. The food was perfectly cooked and everything was so delicious. The only downfalls were that the music was far too loud and the sides were very small - definitely order extra, it will go! But overall very very happy and will definitely return. P.S. the garlic hollandaise is beyond phenomenal and you haven't lived until you've tried the ham and cheese empanadas.Special Features:
- DisappointingSwissSteveDined on 12/9/2014What a disappointment. Was entertaining some clients so didn't make a fuss at the time as may have made them feel uncomfortable but a tough £49.50 fillet steak and soggy chips. It's all a bit dark and nightclubby with loud music and just really expensive for what it is. I am certain others would enjoy but for me I will not be going back as the are better places. Should have listened to the lady in Searcys at the Gherkin who recommended Hawksmoor when I told her we were off to Gaucho; she obviously knew what to expect
- Great foodNeilDined on 9/9/2014Excellent for steaks, as you would expect, and the whole experience is well run by the staff. However, for me, entry bottles of wine starting at £50 and cocktails around £10 each pushes the bill up to at least £100 per head which is expensive these days - even on expenses!,Special Features:
- great steakgms1Dined on 29/8/2014gaucho has a well deserved reputation as one of the best steakhouses in london and this branch did not disappoint. The service was very good and the food excellent complimented by a good wine listSpecial Features:
- A lovely eveningPayneDined on 22/8/2014For City eating, this restaurant is great. I've only been to the chain a few times, but always feels like a special occasion and the food is always deliciousSpecial Features:
- Best steak in ages amazing serviceMassiveFoodyDined on 1/8/2014I haven't been to Gauchos for a few years but the last time I went I had easily the best steak I've ever eaten, until Saturday night. The wine list is exceptional, I'm a massive fan of Argentinian wine, particularly Malbec, and they had pages of it! The service was absolutely fantastic too, I took my girlfriend here for a treat and they made a massive fuss over both of us and just generally bantered with us and treated us really well. Everything we ordered was cooked to perfection, everything came out with excellent timing and the whole night couldn't have gone any better. You get what you pay for an at £100 a head it certainly wasn't cheap, but I will definitely be back many times.Special Features:
- Nice food, shame about the serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 26/7/2014Excellent steak and some good wine. Unfortunately ruined by very pushy service staff who were constantly trying to up-sell. We were also placed in a corner next to a cupboard door, despite lots of free tables elsewhere in the restaurant - this did nothing for the ambience of the place.
- Excellent ServiceFil2014Dined on 21/7/2014I have eaten at various Gaucho Grills, but the service here was excellent, very attentive, but not intrusive. Food was very good as usual, profiteroles were a bit small though for £8 !Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 15/7/2014Steaks were introduced by poor English speaking staff and although we asked for 300 gramms we were given 500 gramms and were told when queired 300 were not available. surprise surpise, we were charged for 500 gramms. Very convenient we thought.Special Features:
- bad servicenoodlesDined on 11/7/2014Lovely entrance, thank you ladies, unfortunatley we were stuck up against a pillar in an empty restaurant next to another couple where we could have been seated elsewhere. Our waitress was abrupt and it was quite embarasing for my guest who had never been to Gaucho before to be served in such a way, this was my 3rd time and my last time.Special Features:
- Always a Great ExperienceJillyBDined on 7/7/2014When looking for a restaurant which is guaranteed good food and service, I love to go here as it's very close to my office. The express lunchtime menu is great value, service is quick and friendly, and ambience is a little dark but cosy.Special Features:
- Pretty goodPickyDined on 7/7/2014First time I have been to Gaucho and it was good, but I am not sure how ambient the City restaurant is. I need to try the other restaurants!Special Features:
- Amazing experienceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 4/7/2014Having been meaning to try Gaucho for several years this place had a lot to live up to... Thankfully it did with delicious food and a really cool atmosphere (bit like eating in a nightclub but not as loud music!) The staff were all helpful, (even cracking my lobster claw for me) very attentive yet not intrusive which is a fine line to tread. It wasn't cheap, our 3 courses plus wine came to £250 but for a special occasion it was worth every penny, we had such a good time I'm coming back for my birthday for sure!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 28/6/2014Great meat! We had a fantastic time with life music, try the Gin tonic of Gin Mare with 1724 tonic, simply perfect!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good meat!FreddyDined on 21/6/2014Well known chain.. really good quality. Service is top as well! Maybe a bit expensive, even for meat, and even for London..but well, you're paying the brand... Thanks very much for the meal guys.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Set menu is great value-for-moneyskoylesyDined on 19/6/2014Went here for a lunch during the work day. We had the set menu, served very promptly and food was excellent. Staff were so attentive it was almost irritating, as there were about four of them serving us, but if that's the only thing to complain about then it's not so bad!Special Features:
- Good good and serviceStephenWJDined on 17/6/2014As usual, Gaucho delivered a great dining experience - food, atmosphere and service all very goodSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DisappointingOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 14/6/2014We went to Gaucho's for our anniversary and were really disappointed. Firstly, I had to send my steak back, as even though I asked for my steak blue it was medium rare. When I told our waitress she was quite reluctant to send it back, questioning if I knew what blue is (frustrating, but I get this quite a lot). The correctly cooked steak was very tasty so I would recommend, especially if you don't want it rare. The next problem came at dessert, I ordered the panna cotta (absolutely beautiful, I would recommend!) and my partner ordered the freggo, however this never arrived, by the time we realised it wouldn't I had already scoffed my panna cotta so there was no point in complaining. All-in-all very disappointing for the price paid.Special Features:
- Friends 30th.HarjitpDined on 5/6/2014Steak and service were excellent. We were made welcome and were treated to a dining experience. Would happily go again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Attentive staff and amazing foodBumpyBumpDined on 2/6/2014This was my first visit to Gaucho City (although not my first visit to the Gaucho chain) and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The staff were welcoming and attentive throughout our visit and very knowledgeable about the menu. You only really go to Gaucho for the steaks and they didn't disappoint......absolutely beautiful cuts of meat and really well cooked. The sides were delicious too - I particularly liked the fact that a side dish of chips was generously portioned, as many restaurants are quite stingy with the chips. Prices are not on the cheap side, so this is maybe a place for a special occasion or a business lunch where you can claim it on expenses. It's also slightly on the dark side in there and we struggled to read our menus.Special Features:
- GauchoWh1tey23VIPDined on 29/5/2014There are now lots of other steak houses in London (STK, Goodmans and Hawksmoor to name but three), however, Gaucho is still right up there thanks to its consistency; great steaks, good wine and a moody (read dark!) settings mean that there will always be a steady stream of punters at Gaucho.Special Features:

What have I been up to??
Well, after running about 20 miles a week for the first 15 weeks of pregnancy, I decided to call it quits. I don't have any pain when I run but I just feel heavy and yucky. So, I decided it was time to throw in the towel. I have the rest of my life to run after this 3rd little pumpkin pops out! (unless of course Mizuno decides to send me a pair of their new running shoe line......in that case, I'll be running in no time!!!! hint, hint, MIZUNO!!
SO I have been walking about 2 miles a day with the kiddoes in the stroller instead! We usually walk to the grocery everyday! We also go on at least one family hike a week!
I won an entire case of CORE POWER from Lisa at Yo Momma Runs. I am beyond excited!!!!! I LOVE winning giveaways. It ALWAYS always makes my day. I think I'll try a couple and them put them under my bed for after the baby when I start in on some serious 20 mile runs again! WHOOPIE!!!!
Thanks Lisa!!!! Love her BLOG!!!!!!! A daily read for sure. You should go by and say hello. She is a lovely, lovely lady, has 4 kids and runs like a maniac!!!! Hello, super mom!
Thanks Lisa!!!

Most people have never heard of swallowing difficulties, let alone Thickened Drinks. If you, your family member or friend have been diagnosed with a swallowing difficulty (also known as dysphagia), your speech pathologist would have provided some information related to the swallowing difficulty and how it relates to the particular medical circumstances that caused it. Swallowing difficulties can affect people of all ages and some of the more common causes are: stroke, diseases affecting the nervous system, head trauma, cancer of the head or neck, surgery, radiation therapy, and age related changes to the nerves and muscles of the throat that making swallowing difficult for the elderly.
There are different ways to treat dysphagia and the best method is decided on a case by case basis. It can depend on the cause and severity of the dysphagia, and the age and health of the individual. One form of treatment is food and/ or drink modification, which is only recommended after a speech pathologist conducts a full swallowing assessment. Food and drink modification involves the recommendation of optimum food textures (e.g. coarse vs. smooth foods) and the ideal drink thickness that a person can swallow safely. Food and/ or drink modification can result in big changes to the diet and drinks normally consumed by a person with dysphagia. However, it is important to remember that this suggestion is always made in the best interest of the person's health, with safe swallowing being the priority.
Following, you will find information about thickened drinks that will help answer common questions and will assist with their introduction at home.
If someone you know has been diagnosed with a swallowing difficulty, chances are they have been recommended thickened drinks or thickened fluids. Thickened drinks are basically normal drinks that have had a specially formulated thickener added to them, to make them thicker than regular drinks. They are recommended by Speech Pathologists for people who can no longer swallow normal fluids safely and who are at risk of having drinks go into their lungs. The consequences of drinks going into the lungs can be strong coughing, choking or more serious risks such as a chest infection and aspiration pneumonia.
So what's so special about thickened drinks? One reason they work is because they travel more slowly down the throat than normal fluids- this means they are easier for a person to control when they swallow. Think about the differences between water and a thick shake. Water runs out of a cup very fast and a thick shake moves much more slowly. If someone with dysphagia drinks water, it can travel down the throat so quickly that the muscles and nerves used for swallowing, don't act quickly enough. This can mean that some of the water trickles into the lungs. However, with thickened drinks, the fluid moves more slowly and this gives the body more time to control and direct the fluid away from the lungs and toward the stomach. That is one reason why thickened fluids work.
People with swallowing difficulties typically have difficulty swallowing throughout the day. Therefore, in most cases, they will not be able to drink normal drinks at all. This means that thickened drinks will replace normal drinks. When someone is on thickened drinks they should aim to drink as much of them as is needed to maintain normal hydration (1-2 litres).
After diagnosis of a swallowing difficulty, regular visits to a Speech Pathologist will be required so that a person's swallowing ability can be reviewed, and they can determine if there is any improvement. This means that someone with a swallowing difficulty should continue to have thickened drinks until their speech pathologist conducts a review and potentially advises otherwise. The duration of a swallowing difficulty will depend on the cause, the degree of recovery, and the overall health of the individual. Therefore, it is difficult to predict how long it may last.
When someone is diagnosed with a swallowing difficulty, a Speech Pathologist will recommend one of three different thickness levels. The level of thickness that is recommended varies from person to person. It depends on the severity of a person's swallowing disorder. Typically, the worse the swallowing disorder, the thicker the drink. Recently, Speech Pathology Australia and the Dietitian's Association of Australia worked together to create the Australian Standards for Texture Modified Foods and Fluids*. They developed the naming and descriptions for the three recognised thicknesses of thickened drinks. When a speech pathologist recommends thickened drinks, they will always tell the person with dysphagia (or their family member's) which thickness they should have. The three thicknesses are:
Level 150- Mildly Thick
This level is the thinnest of all the thickened fluids. It pours quickly out of a cup (but slower than regular fluids) and has a fast, steady flow. You can drink drinks of this thickness level out of a cup. Other names used to describe this thickness are: Level 1, Nectar Thick, Quarter Thick, Cream or Semi Thick.
Level 400- Moderately Thick
This level is the second thickest of all the thickened fluids. It is similar to the thickness of a thick shake (but a thick shake becomes thinner when it melts, so people on this thickness level still can't drink thick shakes!). Drinks of this thickness pour slowly from a cup and have a slow rate of flow. As it is thick, the best way to have this drink is with a spoon. Other names used to describe this thickness are: Level 2, Honey Thick, Half Thick or Thick.
Level 900- Extremely Thick
This level is the thickest of all the thickened fluids in the new thickness guidelines. Drinks of this thickness cannot be poured from a cup into the mouth as they have a very small flow rate. Drinks of this thickness are so thick that they hold their shape on the spoon and so using a spoon to have them is the best method. Other names used to describe this drink thickness are: Level 3, Pudding Thick, Full Thick, Mousse or Extra Thick.
You have two options, you can purchase pre-made thickened drinks or you can make your own thickened drinks with a powder thickener. Many people also use a combination of both- so they get the benefits of both options.
Pre-mixed thickened drinks
These are available in single serve cups (sold individually or in cartons) or large bottles. Here are some advantages:
they don't require preparation and are ready to drink,
they don't need refrigeration until they are opened
they have a long shelf life (6+ months)
You can be assured that the drinks have been prepared to the right thickness and they are not too runny or overly thick
These products are particularly appealing to people who are elderly or have a disability and are not able to prepare the drinks for themselves or do not have someone who they can rely on to do it correctly and regularly (drinks made at home with thickening powder only last 1-2 days in the fridge). The down side of pre-packaged drinks are that they cost more than thickening powder and some brands manufacture only a limited number of flavours. In Australia, we are lucky to have manufacturers that have over 20 flavours on their menu.
The second option is that you can make thickened fluids using a specialised powder thickener that can come in small tins up to large, economical boxes. These thickeners are specially formulated for people with swallowing disorders. Thickeners like cornflour, gelatin or Karicare are not recommended for thickening drinks. The reasons for this are:
It is hard to get drinks to the correct thickness with these products
They often dramatically change the taste of the drinks they are put into
They can be difficult to mix in completely
The drinks may change in consistency (get thicker or thinner) over time or as the surrounding temperature changes. This could result in the drink thinning down or becoming too thick or gluggy and therefore being unsuitable to drink.
A benefit to using specialised thickening powder is that it is cheaper and more economical than buying pre-mixed drinks and you can add it to whatever flavoured drink you choose (including beer and wine!!). A disadvantage of using a powder thickener is that many people, especially the elderly or those with a disability may have difficulty mixing the drink to the correct thickness level. If a drink is too runny it puts a person at risk of having the drink spill down the throat and then go into the lungs. If the drink is too thick, it may not be appetizing and a person may drink less of it and therefore be at risk of dehydration. Also, drinks that have been pre-mixed using a powder thickener only last a very short time in the fridge- typically 1-2 days.
As not all powder thickeners can be used to thicken hot drinks (and you think you might like to thicken hot drinks such as tea), remember to look for this information when you are choosing a powder thickener.
You will find the instructions on the back of the container that you buy. They are quite easy to follow. Each pack normally has three recipes describing how to make up the drink to each of the three recommended thickness levels. For example, if you are on Level 150- Mildly thick, the recipe might instruct you to add 1 teaspoon of powder to 200 mLs of liquid- then stir for 1-2 minutes with a spoon or fork. For hot drinks, some manufacturers recommend letting the drink stand for 5-10 minutes after you have mixed the thickener in. This is so that the drink gets to the right thickness and all the lumps disappear.
If you are mixing larger quantities, the recipe may also suggest that you use a stick mixer to get a better consistency and to further ensure there are no lumps in the drinks. As the instructions for each product can be slightly different, please remember to read and follow the instructions on the product that you have purchased.
As you can see, there are some things to understand about using and making thickened drinks, however you have a number of options and it becomes a matter of finding solutions that meet your budget, your tastes and the amount of preparation you are willing to do.
Just remember, if you are unsure about which thickness level applies to you, your relative or friend, don't guess, it could be risky for the person drinking it- especially if the drink is too thin. Just ask your speech pathologist and they will be happy to tell you.
