How The Huffington Post Uses Semantic Technology
Alastair Reid of Journalism.co.uk reports, "In the last two and a half years, The Huffington Post has launched in 11 markets and doubled traffic to its sites from 45 million to 90 million unique monthly visitors. Jimmy Maymann, chief executive of The Huffington Post, shared those figures while speaking at the Reuters's Institute Big Data for Media conference in London today. For Maymann, the key is using data to improve reader experience, a tactic that will bring both editorial and business benefits. 'Because of how media has changed in the last five years with social and search we've gone from producing 500 to 1,600 news stories every day,' Maymann told delegates, and editors have access to data that can inform newsroom decisions in a real-time analytics dashboard. The content is 'optimised' by data, he said, so the editor can understand reader habits better and respond accordingly." Read more

text: Alonso: I would bet on Vettel winning the title 3 September, 2011 Fernando Alonso has some pretty interesting opinions on Formula 1 Sep.3 (PVM) Despite only being 30 years old, Fernando Alonso is widely regarded as the elder statesman of Formula 1 and one of the most respected driver of his era, thus his opinions widely sought and often headline grabbing. Fernando is one of the more popular drivers in the paddock In an interview with AutoBild, where he was required to give spontaneous response to keywords fired at him, the Spaniard was in top form with his answers. Here are answers to some of the juiciest questions: Alonso on Ferrari: "To me, a dream come true to be able to drive for this team, the tradition and history are unique, if you're have not driven for Ferrari, your career is not complete. On the 2011 World Championship We have a big deficit, no realistic chance. So I think only race by race, but not to the overall championship standings. I would bet my money on Vettel anyway. On Red Bull Racing They have interpreted the rules better than us, built a great car. Of course, Adrian Newey, the key person, but behind him he has a strong design team. Fernando with Sebastian Vettel On Sebastian Vettel Sebastian is a great champion, who is about to win his second title. He has great talent and ability to withstand pressure. The criticism of him, not being a racer, I do not understand. On Michael Schumacher For me he is and remains the best driver of F1 history and for that he deserves all respect. On Nico Rosberg He now has enough experience to fight for the title. Sooner or later he will be world champion. " On Felipe Massa He's definitely one of the greatest teammates I ever had. We are very close, usually it is only a tenth of a second. We work together very well, although we have a completely different driving style. I attacked the corners very aggressively, while he drives a lot smoother. The pitstop during the Abu Dhabi GP that cost Fernando the 2010 world title On Abu Dhabi 2010 It's very frustrating when a big goal slips out of your hands. We have too much on Mark Webber and gave too little attention to Sebastian Vettel. When Webber came into the pits, we followed him to the front and Seb must have laughed. Webber and I were stuck in traffic, he remained long with old tires out there, won the race and the championship. On Vitaly Petrov I'm not mad at him, but his behavior [Abu Dhabi 2010] was not particularly intelligent. It was not so much that it was a decisive race for me, but that he fought so aggressively. On the third world title It's very important for me, I will not stop until I am world champion with Ferrari. If by 2016 [end of Alonso's current contract with the Maranello team] I have not achieved this (laughs) Then I'll stay just like Michael 20 years until 2021! Tweet SCHUMIFOREVER 2013 prediction…Alonso driving with Schumi………what a duo. http://yallaF1.com F1 fan Go Schumie you legend!!! Evel Articles like this give me a lot of respect for Alonso. I'm not an Alonso fanboy by any means but there's no denying his class in an F1 car – he is truly an F1 great. SCHUMIFOREVER Ferrari are heading for a wonderful team in 2013.Alonso and Schumi driving together for Ferrari.Overtures have started. Butterfly Are you guys on drugs or something with this Schumacher-to-the-Ferrari-again idea? Sennauno I would put my house, my cujons, my savings account & inheritance on Vettell http://yallaF1.com F1 fan 2013 could well be one of the best ever F1 seasons,

Mexico presented 11 accusations involving transactions at HSBC Holdings Plc (HSBA) for money laundering, one of which allegedly implicated bank personnel, and the lender was subject to fines, Finance Minister Jose Antonio Meade said.
"They were given time to correct" their policies, Meade said in an interview broadcast today by Radio Formula in Mexico City. "When that didn't happen in a timely manner, HSBC was subject to fines and penalties," he said.
HSBC had no comment, said a press official in Mexico City who declined to be named under company policy.
Executives from the bank apologized July 17 to a U.S. Senate subcommittee that told them that over the last decade they'd given terrorists and drug cartels access to U.S. dollars and the U.S. financial system. Compliance chief David Bagley announced his resignation during the hearing.
"HSBC could have been implicated in 11 instances, one of which linked some of its officials," Meade said. "What is being made public today is an investigation that had been carried out in Mexico more than four years ago, and the matter was completely corrected."
Meade said 10 of the accusations involved administrative violations and the one against HSBC personnel could result in criminal penalties.

The Strother Hope is a new compound bow for the 2012 season that was built specifically for the female archer. The frame is compact without feeling tiny and the weight of the bow is a very comfortably light 3.75 lbs. Where the most noticeable difference lies with this bow compared to the others in the range is the draw length which only has a range from 23.5" to 25.5".
The bow features many of the same technologies that have been used in the other new release bows from 2012. The dual sync Badger Cam System ensures the timing and smooth draw capabilities of the bow. This means that the bow will feel consistent during the entire draw process ending in a solid back wall.
The other technologies that have been included in the Hope include the Precision Limb Technology used in the split limbs are strong and help with accuracy and strength and a Super Glide Cable Slide that is an easy way of managing the cables to reduce friction and help to prolong their life in a reliable way.

I Hate Doctors
by Burton S. Blumert by Burton S. Blumert
Burt: "You've been my physician for over 25 years. You can't just dump me like you would a broken heart-lung machine."
Doc: "There's no room for sentiment in medicine, and frankly, your quaint right-wing viewpoints aren't as interesting as they once were. I'm turning your medical records over to young Dr. Kaloofka from my office."
Burt: "But Kaloofka doesn't speak English, and I've never heard of a doc, or anybody for that matter, who keeps a venomous giant lizard as an office pet."
Doc: "You're always making mountains out of millstones. As for Kaloofka, he has become a star with my female employees. They're all smiling a lot and humming ditties from the Pakistani hit parade."
Burt: "What about loyalty? It was because of you that I joined 'Californians Against Midwifery.' I haven't missed a meeting in two years, and although I have no idea why, they just elected me secretary/treasurer of the district. And what about those thousands of buttons I own that say 'Chiropractic Isn't Christian'?"
Doc: "Humphhhh." (He grumbles, undecipherable).
Burt: "I could have sued you back in '97 when your lab mistakenly diagnosed me as having cholera."
Doc: "Most people would have seen humor in that."
Burt: (Voice choked with emotion). "Things aren't so funny when the county board of health puts you under quarantine, but the worst indignity was when you forgot me in an examination room. I spent that weekend locked in, with no clothes, a very cold bench, and nothing to read but the Spring 1988 edition of 'Living The Good Life With A Partial Colon.'"
Doc: "Sure, Blumert, you've been OK at times, but you came up empty when we asked for volunteers to firebomb the health food store that sold that profane book, 'Good Health Equals No Doctors'."
(End of Transcription)
Being advised by my semi-retiring family physician that I was no longer his patient reminded me that, basically, I hate doctors.
Nothing personal: I also dislike lawyers and bureaucrats, major and minor, and anybody who has anything to do with the tax code.
Only "physicians" from the list above claim "victim status," however, and seek out conservative/libertarian thinkers to articulate their interests and link them with free-market principles. That's okay. We all do better in an environment free of government intrusion but my physician friends think that they have "special" victim status and that their grievances are unique.
A visit to any "hard money" financial conference or freedom-oriented seminar will find docs well represented, shoulder-to-shoulder with the other freedom fighters. The docs are decent, well-intentioned guys who "talk a good game," but when it comes to their day-to-day practice of medicine, they thoroughly enjoy the benefits their State license affords them.
The socialist virus seems inexorable, and reversing that flow is difficult. If any group has the wherewithal to smash the evil trend toward socialized medicine, it would be the docs themselves. Their AMA has enormous influence in every legislative body in the nation. Add to that the power inherent in their medical associations at the state and county level, and doctors can accomplish anything.
We have coddled doctors long enough. They can't keep blaming government agencies, HMOs, and third-party payers for all their deficiencies. It's widely perceived that patients have low expectations when they have to arrange an appointment with a physician. The patient finds indifference, rudeness, and would have to visit the Department of Motor Vehicles to find comparable attitudes.
Particularly objectionable is what happens when a medical office employee becomes expert in every medical specialty. The patient must convince this high priestess their condition warrants an appointment with the doctor. Doctor friends insist that American medical care is the best in the world. It's also said that Americans are the freest people in the world. Neither statement provides total assurance.
The entire American medical delivery system can do better, but it will take a sea change in the attitude of the average doc.
The four questions below present a hard cynical critique of the status of the health care industry.
How would you like to be in a business where one-half of your customers are addicted to chemicals but can't obtain them without express permission from you?
How would you like to be in a business where the companies who produce the chemicals require your endorsement for the success of their product? Payola becomes the way of life for every physician. He is provided with free samples, junkets to resorts all over the world and other worldly pleasures beyond the imagination of the layman.
How would you like to be in a business where the moment some competitive force is evident, all guns are turned towards that threat? Competitors are marginalized and often face criminal charges with some level of government acting as enforcer.
How would you like to be in a business where substandard performance caused by drunkenness, laziness or plain old criminality often escapes proper notice?
The great medical curmudgeon, Robert S. Mendelsohn, MD, author of Confessions of a Medical Heretic (Warner Books, 1980), spent the latter years of his life goring medical sacred cows. He once pointed out that "Historically, when doctors have gone on strike, the mortality rate has dropped." Indeed, a friend and former medical editor remembers a doctors' strike in Israel that only ended when the undertakers picketed the medical association headquarters. Their business was being hurt!
Burt Blumert (1929—2009) was owner of Camino Coins, president of the Center for Libertarian Studies, chairman of the Mises Institute, publisher of LewRockwell.com, and the author of Bagels, Barry Bonds, & Rotten Politicians.

Just as advertised
Posted by Adam on 20th Oct 2014
This is my first time using bank line and I'm sold. This stuff is incredible and has completely replaced paracord. It's so much cheaper and compact. I haven't used any other bank line but I can't find a single fault in this stuff or anything I wish it could do better. I have noticed a very slight amount of tar residue come off on some things so don't hang your Sunday clothes up to dry on it but we're in the woods after all right? Absolutely incredible product.
Posted by Edof Oz on 5th Aug 2014
This is a good quality product that works well for tarp set-ups and general household use. It has a tar smell about it when it's new but if you leave the roll outside for a few days it goes.
I use it for camp in small hank rolls of about 4m. This gives me ease of use and being all the same short length I know how many hanks I will need. It also eliminates the tangle factor... Easy to join the hanks together is needed (tent peg).
Great product at a reasonable price, even though postage to Australia bumps up the cost a bit... Good quality product.

Posted by Richard Sitz on 12th Jun 2014
Excellent product. It is "tough"! You can come up with dozens of uses for this from fishing line to general bush craft and prep projects. If you haven't tried it before...buy it.
Posted by Dalton on 27th May 2014
I already use tarred line for my fish lines. And it comes in handy for just about anything you need. I bought your tarred line and was surprised at how much better quality of line it was than others I have used. The difference in some, like Wal-Marts, is just amazing. This really is truly good quality bank line. And you know you can always count on it in the bush or any situation you give it to handle. Good bank line is worth its weight in gold in a true survival situation. Buy this line and quit worrying about cordage.
Posted by Roy Osborne on 2nd May 2014
This was my first time using bank line. It is amazing stuff. It's strong, tacky, and holds knots well. Actually, it hold knots so well, you better make sure you tie them correctly the first time, especially if it's a small knot such as those for making a fish hook. I purchased it to use at the Intermediate Course and a life long friend of mine brought the bank line from another source. His stuff did not have the tar smell and simply was not as good. He was regretting his decision. Whether your buying this for a course or your personal use, this is one product you definitely want to buy from Dave. He has gone out of his way to make sure he's offering a high quality product.
Posted by Roy Brewster on 22nd Apr 2014
Very strong for its size, has tons of survival uses. Any survivalist knows the value of rope and/or string.
Posted by Unknown on 5th Mar 2014
Probably the thing I like best about #36 bank line is how stiff and tangle-free it is. Kernmantle nylon cord of the same diameter with similar characteristics is many times more expensive, and I suspect bank line has more long-term durability due to its tar content. This line smells like tar and is slightly sticky with it, but even so tar does not rub off on the hands. Although diameter is fairly thin, this is a 3-ply miniature rope which holds knots well but is easy to untie. I do not believe there is a better cord than bank line for any application within the range of its tensile strength.

Tarred Nylon Twine - 1 lb. spool contains approximately 510 linear feet with a 340 lb. breaking strength. This twine is especially black treated and dried before it's put on a reusable plastic spool. It has many advantages over twine treated by "spool dunking." It is uniformly and deeply coated from one end to the other - no "zebra stripes" or tar globs to come off on your hands. It's dry, easy-to-tie, and holds knots well.

On the ground experiences, commentary, and progressive viewpoints
Many of us who deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq found ourselves learning important lessons on the ground, adapting to situations our training couldn't have anticipated, and teaching new knowledge to others within our organization in any way we could–because what we learned, often through hard lessons, made us more effective at accomplishing our mission. But. Our organizations weren't always receptive to our learning and adaptation.
I've personally found that even if the lessons we junior officers and NCOs learn on the ground are reflected in the directives coming from high-level commanders, it often seemed that mid-level commanders had full discretion on whether those lessons–which many of us knew as pathways to avoiding problems and achieving success–would be treated seriously or not. Maybe it was because these middle-aged commanders were steeped in an age that trained against a different enemy, a war for different times. Maybe they were too disconnected from what their junior troops were experiencing and learning on the ground. Maybe they were too proud to accept that the men and women serving under them might understand how to achieve mission success better than they do. Or maybe they were too risk-averse to give credence to anything new or unfamiliar. Whatever the case, our military organizations too often resist needed change and adaptation.
Add to this that our corps of junior officers and NCOs are the best educated and likely the most talented we've seen in our nation's military history, yet too often their ability to contribute their knowledge and talent is starkly limited by their rank and a byzantine personnel management system that offers no opportunities for merit-based progression. Plus any number of areas in which our nation's largest institution has lagged, atrophied, or become unwieldy or less effective. Is our military developing and keeping its best talent? Is it fully absorbing the lessons of Afghanistan and Iraq to position itself for the unknowns of future conflicts? For all that we are spending on defense, are our military personnel fully empowered to deliver the quality of national defense needed to keep our nation and allies safe and strong?
Our military strength matters, and, like any other part of our government, it is only as good as the sincerity and creativity of the efforts we invest in it. When I first read about the Defense Entrepreneurs Forum in Thomas Ricks's blog on Foreign Policy earlier this year, I was encouraged that others were coming together to put some serious thought and energy towards working within the system to make our military better. When a contact suggested that I attend the DEF Conference in Chicago–I realized that I couldn't miss an opportunity to channel my frustrations toward something that may have profound, positive results.
What happens when you gather together military leaders, veterans, and defense professionals (of diverse political persuasions) who are passionate about making our military stronger and more effective? You have amazing ideas, an array of potential solutions, and enough "grit" to ensure that positive change will result. The conference is happening this weekend (October 12-14), and you can tune in live (or watch recorded sessions) by clicking HERE and following along on Twitter using the hashtag #DEF2013. Join us!
Thanks for the writeup Kristen! I'm glad you make it to the conference, and I hope you'll enjoy today's events.
Thanks for taking the time to write this. Your story and presentation was powerful. I'm glad that you came to help enrich our conference!
Take care,

Here's what Clark Kent's superhero outfit in the forthcoming Superman Returns does not have: fake muscles; body armor; Day-Glo Spandex; protruding nipples in short, the fashion-don'ts and deviations from the comic sources that have led to embarrassing superhero costumes in some comic-book movies of recent years. As this photo from the film's Australian set reveals, Superman's costume is pretty much as you remember it from previous incarnations. The muscles the suit displays are all those of 25-year-old Brandon Routh, the newcomer who stars as the Man of Steel.
Director Bryan Singer, who radically overhauled the costumes of the mutant superheroes in his two X-Men movies (replacing the yellow Spandex of the comics' costumes with black leather), told USA Today that this time he wanted ''something classic.'' Singer's Edna Mode is costume designer Louise Mingenbach, whose minor modifications included a slight muting of the blue and red color scheme, a modest reduction in the size of the ''S'' shield on Superman's chest, and the addition of the ''S'' logo to his belt buckle.
The story finds Superman returning to Earth after a long and mysterious absence only to find that Lois Lane (Kate Bosworth) has put him behind her, while Lex Luthor (Kevin Spacey) again threatens the planet. The movie will be shooting for the next few months in Australia, with an eye toward a release date of June 30, 2006.

School starts in one week and I'm bracing for the tears and the anxiety. Not my kids'. Mine. As I've written before, "Nothing strikes fear in the heart of a working mother like the last six weeks of school, except maybe the first six." There are so many activities to coordinate: school supply shopping, orientation meetings, curriculum nights, fundraisers, and parent teacher conferences. The challenge of managing my September Outlook calendar makes balancing a multimillion dollar marketing budget seem like first grade arithmetic.
I've been critical of my school district in the past; as far as I'm concerned, there is no excuse for notifying me that my child's artwork will be on display in the town-wide exhibit the night before the art show. Actually, I think there are two possible excuses: lack of planning or lack or respect for parents' time. So this year, I must commend the administration.
Last night I visited the school website and on the school calendar I saw the dates and times for curriculum night, the Halloween dance, the winter concert, the spring concert and even the end of year carnival. Having this information is a huge help. I've already entered the events in Outlook, asked for time off for the concerts and noted the nights I need to leave work early to get to the school by 7 p.m.
Still, even with improvements in planning and communication, managing school activities can be a challenge for working parents. Also last night, I was browsing Facebook and I saw that one friend was scheduled to volunteer midday today at her child's school handing out supply kits. Meanwhile, another friend wondered why the kits wouldn't be available at any times convenient for working parents. The packets are available for pickup from 8 -10 a.m., but if, like me, your work day starts at 8:30, and you have a 45 minute commute, you're still out of luck.
The reality is, schools and school routines just weren't designed with the working parent in mind. Three o'clock dismissals, parent-teacher conferences that start at 10:15 a.m., the dreaded half-days and summer vacations, are all out of sync with the work world. And even when schools make adjustments – scheduling meetings at night or offering packet pick-up at 8 a.m., fitting it all in can be a challenge for working parents.
Women especially have to consciously manage perceptions at work. As I've noted in the past, "If we are serious about our careers…we need to be seen as dedicated to the job." A working mother "is constantly weighing the risk/rewards for every decision she makes to be at work or at home. Where is the greater payoff – the client call or the teacher conference? What carries a higher penalty – miss the meeting or miss the field trip?"
So even with the fabulous school calendar and long-term planning, there will be some anxiety this school year. And there may be tears. After all, the art show is still to-be-scheduled and the musical theatre instructors may wait until the last minute to let me know my kid needs to wear a mint green t-shirt in the performance. And so you may hear me, and working mothers across the country, complain from time-to-time about managing work, life and school. When that happens, please do not respond with any of the following:
Six things not to say to a working mother
Do you have to work?
First of all, that's none of your business. Second of all, it's completely irrelevant. Some women enjoy working. But if you mean, do I have to work from 2 – 2:30 on Wednesday when the class is decorating gingerbread houses? Yes, I have a meeting with my boss at that time. Otherwise, I'd try to rearrange my schedule…again.
Don't feel guilty.
Who said anything about guilt? You did, not me. I may be frustrated that the teacher didn't cho0se the field trip chaperones until three days before the outing and that's not enough notice for me to miss work. I may be crazed because I am trying to find a skin-colored leotard with black straps by tomorrow. Maybe I feel disappointed that I am going to miss my daughter's play because I'll be out of town. Most likely, I am exhausted because I got up at 5 a.m. to get some work done before the science fair. But I don't feel guilty about providing a paycheck for my family.
This is important so do your best to be there.
I don't need to be reminded how important it is for me to be involved in my child's education. In fact, I think it's the administration or school staff or PTO board that needs the reminder if they're the ones responsible for planning an event at an inconvenient time or with too little notice. I do my best everyday. But I cannot reschedule a client meeting or business trip or deadline with too little notice. If I could, I would.
Don't worry. Your child will be fine if you're not there.
Who said anything about my child? I know my child will survive if I don't volunteer at the holiday bazaar. And I even think my child benefits from my missing a concert or two. What better way to learn to perform for the joy of it instead of for the applause? But I understand that life is short and our children grow up fast and so I want to be there.
I don't know how you do it. I couldn't stand to miss out on my child's activities.
I don't need to explain why you should never say this. It's horrible and you know it.
I guess if you're going to work, you have to accept that you'll miss out.
As a working parent I don't expect to be at every event. But what I do expect is enough planning, communication and courtesy so that I can choose what events I miss and what events I will use my vacation or personal time to attend. What I will never accept is missing events that I may have been able to attend if only I had enough notice.
And the one thing we'd love to hear you say?
You're right. All parents are busy and need more notice and flexibility. Let's work together to affect positive change.

Peeta's Cheesy Buns
From The Hunger Games Trilogy by Suzanne Collins
3 cups flour
1 packet active dry yeast
1 tbs sugar
1 tsp salt
3/4 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
3/4 cup shredded gruyere cheese
1/2 cup warm milk
1/2 cup warm water
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
3 tbs cup butter, melted
Preheat your oven to 375º Fahrenheit. Grease a small pan. Combine 1 1/2 cups flour, sugar, salt and the yeast in a large mixing bowl, thoroughly mix. Toss in 1/2 cup of each cheese. Add the warm milk, warm water and the oil. Beat for about 5 minutes. Gradually stir in the rest of the flour until you have a soft dough. Put dough on a floured board. Knead the dough until it is elastic and not sticky, adding more flour if necessary. Place in a greased bowl and then flip the dough over to grease the other side. Cover the dough with plastic wrap. Let the dough rise in a warm environment for approximately one half hour. Punch the dough down, cover again and let rest for 10 more minutes. Cut dough into 20 separate pieces. Shape each into a sphere. Dip each ball in melted butter. Arrange balls in two layers in the small well greased pan. Cover with a paper towel. Let rise in warm place until balls are almost to top of pan, about one hour. Sprinkle the remaining cheeses over the rolls. Bake on the lower rack of a preheated 375°F oven for about 35 minutes or until rolls are firm and golden. Let cool for 5 minutes and enjoy!!

NoMaas writer and ancient Greek mathematician Pythagoras is currently on an international book signing tour, but took a few minutes to draft a year-end wrap up for our readers.
According to one of history's most influential philosophers, Pythagoras concluded the Yankees should have finished with a 95-67* record, appropriate for the 915 runs scored and 753 runs allowed. However, due to His divine mercy, the Yankees finished with a 103-59 record, exceeding their Pythagorean record by 8 games to the upside.
The Pythagorean records for the rest of the AL East, actual record in parentheses:
Boston: 93-69 (95-67)
Tampa: 86-76 (84-78)
Toronto: 84-78 (75-87)
Baltimore: 69-93 (64-98)
The takeaway from this is that the Yankees likely weren't 8 games better than the Red Sox, as the final standings showed. It looks like the main contributor for the gap over Boston was the Yankees 7-3 record in extra inning games versus Boston's 4-6. Praise be to Pythagoras!
*We've seen Pythagorean records showing the Yankees anywhere between 95 and 97 wins, but a margin of 2 games over Boston remains constant.
Pythagoras, we are not worthy to receive you, but only say the word and we shall be healed.

Catastrophic Health Insurance
Catastrophic health plans, also known as major medical coverage, is an option for those who don't have access to employer-sponsored health plans or just don't want to pay for extra coverage they don't need. With catastrophic health insurance, you are covered in case of a major medical emergency.
The Way Catastrophic Health Plans Work
When enrolled in this type of policy, you are given a high annual deductible and low monthly premiums. These plans are also known as High Deductible Health Plans. There are also co-payments you are required to pay for doctor visits and prescription drugs. Once your annual deductible is met, you will be covered for major medical expenses only.
With most of these plans, the deductible begins at $500 and could go up to as high as $5,000. The higher the deductible you pay, the lower your premium rates. You may come across a policy that has a cap on it; it could be between $1 million and $3 million. Whenever the amount on the cap is reached, your policy will become void and you will no longer have coverage for your medical expenses.
Note that some of these catastrophic insurance plans won't cover pregnancy or maternity care until 12 months after your policy becomes effective.
Majority of the people who purchase this plan are in their 20s or are between 50 and 65 years old. The younger individuals buying catastrophic insurance usually don't have employer-sponsored health benefits or are self-employed. The elders tend to opt for this insurance because they are healthy, on few or no prescriptions and fear of having financial loss due to a heart attack or other serious illness. They'd rather pay lower premiums and out-of-pocket costs for doctor visits.

Onefinestay Raises $12 Million In Funding To Launch Unhotel In New York City
LONDON, June 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
onefinestay, the world's first unhotel, a new category of upscale accommodation, which lets visitors stay in a distinctive home while the owner is out of town, has raised $12 million in Series B financing led by US venture capital firm Canaan Partners. Existing investors Index Ventures and PROfounders also participated in this round. This funding brings onefinestay's total capital raised to date to $16 million and will be used to support the company's launch in New York City and other international expansion plans.
"Two years ago, we hardly dared dream that owners of high-end homes would be so receptive to our business model," says co-founder and CEO of onefinestay, Greg Marsh. "But today with hundreds of members in London together making many millions a year, many thousands of satisfied guests, and the support of leading investors, we are hugely excited about our US launch and international expansion. With an extraordinary range of homes to choose from, we are able to offer the same promise to visitors to New York as we have to visitors to London: live like a local."
onefinestay redefines the experience of city travel by combining the distinctive character of a beautiful private home with a service that offers the convenience and comforts of a high-end hotel. While guests enjoy living like a local, host members benefit by earning additional income from a house or apartment that would otherwise sit vacant. Hundreds of hosts in London today enjoy the flexibility of using their own homes when in town and, despite the fact that none is a professional landlord, many are already earning significantly more than $50K a year.First launched in London, the complete onefinestay service provided to members, from marketing and photography to insurance, cleaning and provision of linens, has proved extremely popular. In May 2010 onefinestay launched in London with just six members' homes. Two years on, the company manages over 500 upscale homes, and exclusively manages a property portfolio worth over $1bn. The company's revenues increased tenfold in 2011, and this growth is today supported by a dedicated team of over 100. The company's success has helped attract top tier international investors, including leading global venture capital firm Canaan Partners, which led the Series B funding round. Warren Lee from Canaan Partners joins the board, and said: "We are thrilled to be leading this round. The onefinestay team are talented, driven and insanely ambitious. We share their belief that there will be an unhotel in every major world city, and look forward to supporting their growth." onefinestay's Series A funding was led by leading venture capital firm Index Ventures with participation from PROfounders Capital, and included some of the foremost players in the travel and hospitality industry, such as Brent Hoberman, co-founder of Lastminute.com; Andy Phillips, co-founder of Active Hotels; and David Magliano, former Director of Marketing for London's successful 2012 Olympic bid. Greg Marsh said, "We are pleased to welcome Canaan Partners as investors to the company. Canaan has outstanding bi-coastal presence in the US, and we particularly value their New York profile. We look forward to working with them to execute the next phase of our growth - our launch in New York." onefinestay's launch in New York is the first stage in a wider strategy of international expansion, with ambitions set on having an unhotel in every major world city.

Liddle, Morna (2011) Exploring People's Experience of Appearance-Altering Orthognathic Surgery. DClinPsy thesis, University of Sheffield.
Temporary Embargo (access restricted until embargo expiry date) until 30 September 2016.
Request a copy
A review of the literature reporting psychosocial outcomes of orthognathic surgery has generally shown that patients experience positive gains. These are discussed within five main areas – appearance-related outcomes, self-concept, social functioning, satisfaction with treatment and mental health. The influence on outcomes of gender, age and severity are discussed, as well as the stability of outcomes over time. There are considerable conceptual and methodological issues with the study designs such as the differing definition of concepts and wide variety of measurement approaches used, which makes comparison across studies difficult. Areas for future research, including the role of psychological support for patients, are discussed. Qualitative exploration of the experience of seven people undergoing orthognathic treatment was undertaken. Participants were each interviewed before and after surgery and this data was analysed using interpretative phenomenological analysis. Four major themes were reported which describe the experience of treatment as a long and at times challenging process, the role of appearance issues in their identity, the influence of the views of others and their experiences of uncertainty. The contribution of these results to the understanding of psychological theories of appearance is discussed and avenues for future research, such as exploring clinician-patient communication, are put forward.

Saint Alphonsus Medical Center - Nampa and Treasure Valley Hospital file injunction to delay acquisition of Saltzer Medical Group
Start Date
Hospitals ask U.S. District Court to delay transaction until antitrust investigations of St. Luke's business practices are complete
– Saint Alphonsus Medical Center – Nampa, together with Treasure Valley Hospital filed a petition for an injunction today in United States District Court asking the court to delay the acquisition of Nampa's Saltzer Medical Group by St. Luke's Health System. The injunction papers allege that the planned acquisition of Saltzer Medical Group by St. Luke's will create a monopoly of primary care physicians in Nampa who regularly see commercially-insured patients and will have a long term detrimental impact on the Nampa community, its citizens and the hospital that has served the community for more than 100 years.
Both the Federal Trade Commission and the Idaho Attorney General's Office began an investigation into St. Luke's actions under federal antitrust laws and Idaho's Competition Act late last year. The Idaho Attorney General's Office has asked St. Luke's to hold off on the sale of Saltzer until their investigation was complete. St Luke's recently stated its intent to close the deal. This has compelled Saint Alphonsus Health System to act to protect the healthcare needs of patients in the community.
The injunction papers allege the acquisition would seriously harm the two hospitals and health care in the community. Our complaint further states that St. Luke's has a demonstrated pattern of cutting off referrals to nearby hospitals after it purchases physician groups like Saltzer Medical Group. The injunction papers allege that this action would damage the ability of Saint Alphonsus Medical Center – Nampa to serve its long-held role of "safety net" hospital for the community of Nampa. Saint Alphonsus Medical Center – Nampa provides twice the national average of community care to those unable to pay. Fully 25 percent of patients in the emergency room at Saint Alphonsus Medical Center – Nampa are uninsured. The injunction filings allege that the loss of referrals due to a St. Luke's acquisition would seriously damage the hospital's ability to continue to act as a safety net for the community, a role it has played for more than 100 years.
"We did not arrive at this action without a lot of thought and reflection," said Sally Jeffcoat, president and CEO of Saint Alphonsus Health System. "But because we believe strongly in our Mission and our legacy of healing the body, mind and spirit of our patients, we are compelled to act."
The mission of Saint Alphonsus Health System is to heal the body, mind and spirit of our patients, and to provide health care and healing to those patients close to their homes. The planned acquisition would directly affect the ability of Saint Alphonsus to carry out this mission and is the reason for this action taken today.

Washington Nationals (34-29) at San Francisco Giants (42-23), 10:15 p.m. (ET)
(SportsNetwork.com) - Matt Cain and Tanner Roark both responded very well to a bit of adversity last time out. The two hurlers square off on Wednesday night when Cain's San Francisco Giants resume a four-game series against Roark and the Washington Nationals.
Both Cain and Roark were last in action on Friday, with Cain coming back from his second stint on the disabled list and Roark trying to snap a personal three-start losing streak.
The right-handed Cain, returning from a hamstring strain, was in top form early on against the New York Mets, carrying a no-hitter through five innings in an eventual no-decision. He allowed two runs on three hits and a walk over seven frames as his club picked up a 4-2 win.
"You're excited to get back out there," said Cain. "You're thinking about just finding a good rhythm. For me I kind of recognize (the no-hitter), so I recognized that really early."
It marked Cain's fifth straight outing without a defeat, though he has just one win in that span. The 29-year-old is 1-3 on the year with a 3.52 earned run average.
Roark, meanwhile, was nearly lights out as well against the San Diego Padres in snapping his slide. The 27-year-old righty logged eight scoreless innings of three-hit ball, fanning a career-high 11 batters and not issuing a walk.
He allowed three runs or fewer for a sixth start in a row and is 4-4 on the year with a 2.91 ERA.
"He's been pitching like that for us all year," Nationals manager Matt Williams said. "He continues to pound the zone with all his pitches, pretty impressive."
Cain is 5-4 with a 3.12 ERA in his career against the Nationals, while Roark will face the Giants for the first time as a starter. He has faced them once in relief, picking up a victory.
The Nationals have won the first two contests of this series, claiming last night's contest by a 2-1 score.
Washington got both of its runs in the fifth inning on Denard Span's sacrifice fly and Jayson Werth's RBI single, and starter Doug Fister took care of the rest.
Fister hurled seven scoreless innings, scattering eight hits and a walk in Washington's seventh victory in eight games.
"Guys are playing together. We're rolling, we're playing together," said Fister. "We've got a lot of momentum."
Brandon Hicks' ground out in the ninth inning scored a run for the Giants, who had won five in a row coming into this series, but Rafael Soriano recorded the next two outs to record the save and secure a tough-luck loss for San Francisco starter Madison Bumgarner.
Bumgarner was shooting for his ninth win of the campaign and yielded the two runs over seven innings.
Though Washington third baseman Anthony Rendon returned from a three-game absence caused by a sore right thumb, catcher Wilson Ramos exited in the ninth inning due to right hamstring tightness. He is day-to-day.
The Giants and Nationals split six meetings a season ago.

American Apparel Sinks to New Low
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- American Apparel (APP) shares sank to a new 52-week low Wednesday after the retailer with the controversial ads said it received a delisting warning, may not be in compliance with a covenant under its credit agreement, and widened its first-quarter loss.
The projected covenant non-compliance may impact the company's ability to carry out its operating plan for 2010, American Apparel said in a statement. The company is working with its second-lien lender to obtain amendments to the total-debt-to-adjusted-EBITDA covenant at June 30.
The New York Stock Exchange also warned American Apparel that it must submit a plan to return to compliance by June 1, and must achieve that compliance no later than Aug. 16 or face a delisting of its stock.
Shares of the maker and seller of hipster T-shirts and other cotton leisure wear were plunging 25.2% to a new low of $2.01 in morning trading Wednesday.American Apparel said its preliminary first-quarter loss widened to $17.6 million from a loss of $3.9 million in the year-ago period. Sales grew 6.6% to $121.8 million, but same-store sales tanked 10%. The company refrained from providing guidance, due to its "highly uncertain sales trends." American Apparel's total debt increased to $91.4 million from $83.4 million in the fourth quarter. Reported by Jeanine Poggi in New York.

The Royal Mint has announced its 2015 bullion proposition following a year that has seen some notable additions to the organisation's offering,
4 reviews
No Longer Available
No other icon better represents the pride of the British people than Britannia. In The Queen's reign she has featured on pre-decimal coins, on decimal coins, on gold coins and, on the large silver £2 coin, has reigned supreme.
The silver Britannia £2 coin for 2012 is now available. Struck in Britannia silver, a higher standard silver than sterling, it contains a full ounce of fine silver and remains one of the most popular coins in the Royal Mint showcase. The reverse of the 2012 coin features Philip Nathan's breathtaking portrait of Britannia framed in the crenellated border peculiar to Britannia coins. Beautifully packaged, the 2012 Britannia silver £2 coin makes an excellent patriotic gift.
By the time The Queen came to the throne in 1952, Britannia had assumed the status of an immortal having been an enduring feature of British coinage for almost 300 years. How appropriate, then, that she should grace the new gold bullion coins of 1987, coins that were to be immediately identifiable as British. The new coins were released in October 1987 with a new standing figure of Britannia receiving worldwide acclaim.
The new Britannia was created by the sculptor Philip Nathan who, he explained, 'wanted to make more of Britannia's links to the sea, personifying as she does the British love of things nautical and great pride in our naval history'. Standing proudly on the shore, hair and gown streaming in the sea breeze, his Britannia is armed with trident and shield, her love of peace symbolised by the olive branch she grasps in her left hand. Her helmet recalls her Roman ancestry, its elongated visor and plume giving her an elegance and grace that in no way detracts from her inherent strength.

A very nice coin
By Dale,
The coin itself is beautiful. It has a flawless polished finish. The only thing I don't like is the packaging. Cheap cardboard and a flimsy plastic capsule. You would think for this price they would throw in a presentation box and proper coin capsule.
By AbdulRahman,
Beautiful piece to own as a precious metal and to keep as a story of history

Downtown Joliet girds for Peterson trial media horde
By Janet Lundquist firstname.lastname@example.com July 18, 2012 10:10PM
A media crew preparesa report on the Drew Peterson case across the street from Will County Courthouse in July. Joliet officials are preparing for a large contingent of media when jury selection starts Monday for Peterson's murder trial. | Joseph P. Meier
Article Extras
Updated: August 20, 2012 11:43AM
JOLIET — In case you haven't heard, Drew Peterson is going on trial next week for the murder of his third wife, Kathleen Savio.
It is a local story that has steamrolled through the national media, gathering attention even while Peterson has been locked up in the Will County Jail for the past three years.
On Monday, the trial could begin and hordes of reporters, spectators and lawyers will set up camp in downtown Joliet.
The city has a plan for the television trucks. They cannot park at the meters around the courthouse. They can park in the Joliet Police Department's parking lot on Washington Street at a cost of $250 per week.
"If traffic issues arise, we do have different people assigned to the downtown area that will address that as it happens," Joliet police Cmdr. Rich Demick said.
The city had a test run during a 2010 hearing to determine what hearsay testimony would be allowed at the trial.
News trucks set up in the same parking lot — called the "satellite farm" by some city staff — and traffic flowed through the downtown as usual.
"All we did pretty much is (Joliet police) lost our parking spaces," Demick said of the parking situation during the hearing in 2010. "Our guys had to park up on the hill by the river."
The weekly parking pass also includes access to some city hall conference room space, restrooms and wireless Internet, said Ben Benson, the city's marketing and communication director.
There will likely be about 12 news vehicles parking in the lot, along with a mobile studio set up by a court television station, Benson said of the expected media influx
Courtroom seating
While there was some outcry from news crews about the parking situation, there were louder protests over the courtroom seating arrangement for reporters.
Journalists covering the trial will be chosen by lottery every morning for 10 media seats available in the courtroom. All the other media members will sit in an overflow room and listen to an audio feed from the courtroom.
The media section was limited to preserve seats for Savio's family, Peterson's family, the attorneys and the public, said Kurt Sangmeister, courts administrator for the Will County courthouse.
"Everybody needs to understand that there are only so many seats in the courtroom," Sangmeister said. "Everybody's not going to be happy, to a different extent. There's not much we can do about that."
The court has received more than 120 requests for media credentials, Sangmeister said, adding that most news outlets are sending more than one person to cover the trial.
"We're going to be ready," he said. "We've done thousands of trials. Those are still going to go on. This one has gotten a little more media attention than others. Other than that, it's going to be business as usual at the Will County courthouse."
It won't necessarily be business as usual for the restaurants and shops in the downtown area, most of which have been planning for the influx of potential patrons, creating express lunch menus and brainstorming ways to lure trial business.
The satellite farm alone likely will have upward of 50 inhabitants, Benson estimated, all of whom will need to eat, sleep and work.
Downtown restaurants learned during the hearsay hearing that they will see a bump in customer traffic, as well as a number of customers who need to grab quick lunches, and are planning accordingly.
"This is an opportunity to showcase Joliet on a national stage," Benson said.

I bought croissants and meat pastries from one of my favorite bakeries this morning. They had to put them in 3 different boxes. Why? The croissants came out the size of my head, not as moist, and the texture was off. The meat pastries were weird too. They said they have been having baking problems for a while bc of the weather. I definitely have too so if your treats have been coming out "off", perhaps it's the weather. Here's a pic of one of the monstrous croissants:

Junior All-America outside hitter Bailey Webster led the No. 3 seeded Texas Longhorns with 15 kills in their 3-0 sweep Friday of the No. 14 seed Florida Gators (25-22, 26-24, 25-17) in the NCAA Austin Regional semifinal. With this win in front of 3,839 fans at Gregory Gym, the Longhorns (26-4) log their seventh-straight regional semifinal victory and advance to the regional final tomorrow night against USC.
Webster connected on 15 of 29 swings with three errors for a .414 clip in this match. She also added three digs and two blocks. In three postseason matches, Webster leads the Longhorns with 47 total kills.
Sophomore All-America outside hitter Haley Eckerman earned nine kills, five digs and three blocks, while senior utility Sha'Dare McNeal had eight kills on 15 attempts with no errors for a .533 hitting percentage. McNeal also posted two assists, seven digs and four blocks. Junior setter Hannah Allison added three kills, 32 assists, two service aces and eight digs.
Florida (27-5) was led by Chloe Mann with 14 kills on 22 attempts with three errors for a .500 clip. Mann also registered two digs and three blocks.
Both teams came out for set one swinging hard. Down 13-10, Texas launched a 7-1 run that was highlighted by two service aces from freshman libero Kat Brooks. The Gators kept it close, but UT secured the set with two straight kills from Webster, who posted five kills in the set. Sophomore middle blocker/outside hitter Khat Bell, who earned three kills and one service ace in the set, registered four of Texas' first seven points in set one.
The second set began with three straight points for the Gators, but proved to be close throughout with 15 tied scores and five lead changes. A late 4-0 run gave the Gators a 20-17 lead, but the Horns responded with 5-2 run of their own--which featured three kills from Webster--to tie the set at 22. Texas put the set away with four unanswered points, including a kill from Eckerman at set point.
Leading 7-6 in the third, momentum swung in Texas' favor as they launched a 9-2 run that was punctuated by four kills from Webster. A stretch of five unanswered points put UT up 22-11 and gave the Horns their largest margin of the match at 11. Despite a late 5-1 run from the Gators, Texas closed the match with kills from Eckerman and Webster. The Horns earned a .400 team hitting percentage in the third.
Tomorrow night's winner will advance to the NCAA Final Four next week in Louisville, Ky. Tomorrow's match at 8 p.m. Central Time will be broadcast live on ESPNU. Gametracker live stats will be available on TexasSports.com with live Twitter updates @TexasVolleyball.
Notes: Tomorrow night will be just the second time that Texas and USC has faced each other in the postseason…USC swept Texas in the 2007 regional final in Gainesville, Fla…Texas swept Florida earlier this season on Aug. 31 in University Park, Pa. (29-27, 25-22, 26-24)…Texas is now 4-4 all-time in the postseason against Florida…Bailey Webster has 47 kills in three postseason matches, hitting .519 (47-7-77) with seven blocks while Haley Eckerman has 34 kills while hitting .321 with 16 digs and five blocks.

The medieval town centre church of St Lawrence will soon begin a new life as a 21st Century community facility for the people of Ipswich, when it reopens on Thursday 8th May.
The project has been funded by Ipswich Borough Council and a Government Growth Point Status grant of £700,000.
Ipswich Borough Council has been working closely with a number of community groups who want to use the facility, including Age Concern Suffolk, the Ipswich Council for Voluntary Services (ICVS), Ipswich Arts Association (IAA), Ipswich Historic Churches Trust (IHCT), and Ipswich and Suffolk Council for Racial Equality (ISCRE).
The Borough Council is also working with Whitehouse Enterprises to operate a cafeé that is open from 10.00am to 4.00pm Monday to Friday, and 10.00am to 2.00pm on Saturdays. The cafeé will offer employment opportunities to people with learning and physical disabilities.
Genesis, another social enterprise, are using the centre to show-case some of their excellent work and have some of their clients demonstrating their skills.
In its new form, the facility meets the needs of a wide and diverse Ipswich community and still provides a central place for people to meet, sit down and have a cup of tea.
