Town Hall Square
All the city's main museums, attractions and shopping are either right off the Town Hall Square or a short walk from it. It's not the prettiest place in Copenhagen, but what it lacks in beauty, it more than makes up for in purpose.
Nyhavn means new harbor, and today, it's a very touristy area with small restaurants and bars facing the canal. But it wasn't always this family-friendly. It used to be a red light district catering to sailors from abroad.
Nyhavn, Copenhagen, Denmark
The neighborhood of Christianshavn is a 10-minute ride from Town Hall Square. If you're looking for Danish pastry, or wienerbrød, you can't go wrong in Christianshavn. Translated, wienerbrød means Viennese bread.
Overgaden Oven Vandet, 1415 Copenhagen, Denmark
Tivoli is the No. 1 attraction in Denmark. Tivoli has been a favorite Copenhagen destination since 1843. Tivoli has beautiful gardens, an old-fashioned midway and dozens of restaurants.
Vesterbrogade, 1630 Copenhagen, Denmark
Right off Town Hall Square is Copenhagen's main shopping street, which is actually 5 streets pieced together into a long, pedestrian-only thoroughfare for a major shopping experience.
The Square Hotel
The Square Hotel is located right off Town Hall Square. It is one of the few hotels in Copenhagen that has a strong Danish design aesthetic. The Square is a big hotel, which is surprising because it has such an intimate, boutique feel.
Rådhuspladsen 14 DK-1550 Copenhagen
Hot Dog Stands
About every 20 feet in Copenhagen is a hot dog stand. Order it with or without the bun. The typical toppings are ketchup, mustard and cucumber salad. The Danes traditionally wash down their dogs with chocolate milk.

This attraction is open seasonally.
Description And Comments
Universal's version of a Mardi Gras Parade has the crazy characters of the New Orleans version but is much more compact. Floats are updated every year with new themes, and the inspiration for 2014′s additions is Jules Verne's classic adventure novel Around the World in 80 Days. But you can always count on the massive "King Gator" float making, along with other favorites like the multi-story Riverboat, to roll down Universal's boulevards. The floats are each accompanied by dozens of strolling performers and stilt walkers, while costumed revelers ride upon them tossing colorful plastic beads to the crowds below.
The 2014 parade steps off from the Esoteric gate near the Horror Makeup Show, circles counter-clockwise past Music Plaza Stage, and exits the park near Beetlejuice's Graveyard Revue.
Touring Tips
The parade lasts around 25 minutes (from when it enters to the park to when it leaves) and generally begins around 7:15 p.m. Times may vary with operating hours, so check the park map for details. You can find good viewing anywhere along the parade route, and unless you insist on standing right up front, there's no need to save your spot more than 10 or 15 minutes in advance.
Special reserved viewing areas are also available for Annual Passholders (near Mel's Drive-In), American Express cardholders (near Finnegan's), guests with disabilities (near Macy's in New York), and young "Lil' Jesters" and their families (near Terminator 2: 3-D).
If you really want to get in on the action, it's possible to volunteer as a bead-tossing float rider. Annual Passholders can sign up for themselves and a guest online; you must RSVP at least one week in advance. American Express Cardholders who purchased their tickets with an AmEx can sign up to ride 90 minutes before each parade in KidZone. (This perk was available in 2013, but details for 2014 are not yet available). All riders must be at least 18 years old (or accompanied by an adult) and 48" tall; space is limited and availability is not guaranteed.

Fulfilling Dual Agendas for Today's America
There is a long history in this country of innovation. Indeed, it is one of the great strengths of our country and our economy. Over and over we have been able to weather the storms of recession, and come out stronger on the other side, because of the impact that new ideas, new methods, new products and even new industries.
One of the fundamental challenges that we face as a country is energy. We need energy for everything we do. Energy powers our homes, our cars, our factories, our offices. And the geopolitical and environmental pressures on energy are enormous. That's why I was so excited to be able to work with the Clean Energy Trust as a mentor to start-up companies striving to help address our country's energy needs.
The Clean Energy Trust was created to speed the development of clean energy businesses "by connecting entrepreneurs, researchers and early stage companies with the expertise and capital needed to become sustainable. The Trust leverages the Midwest region's "world-class research institutions, corporations and financial firms to cultivate a clean energy ecosystem, attracting top researchers and entrepreneurs to invigorate the region's economy." What is so exciting about the Trust is that while it is fostering innovation in others, the Trust itself is an innovation, as it seeks to accelerate the impact of those working to solve the challenges of our ever increasing need for energy while at the same time limiting the environmental and geopolitical impact of that energy usage.
As the founder and Managing Director of Leadership Capital Advisors, an executive search firm focused on innovation and commercialization talent, I know first hand how great people and great ideas can transform companies, communities and the world. I believe in the power of leadership, and I have been so fortunate to work with start-up companies in the clean energy space to help them move from ideas to businesses.
This country was founded on great ideas, and the future belongs to the next set of great ideas.
Lisa L. Walker serves on the Advisory Board of the Clean Energy Trust, and is the Founder and Managing Director of Leadership Capital Advisors, a boutique retained executive search firm that brings unparalleled expertise in the selection and placement of general management, commercialization, and operational leadership in the industrial space.

Europa League: Uefa tell managers & players to talk it up
Uefa hopes to boost the Europa League's profile by asking managers and players to refer to it in glowing terms.
European football's governing body is handing out prompt sheets to the communication departments of Europa League clubs before media conferences.
The sheet, headlined "Discover the Drama", includes phrases such as "prestigious" and "rich in heritage".
Villas-Boas pre-Panathinaikos
"The profile of the competition is raised in other countries, but not England. I don't understand it. I respect the competition. I certainly think it is viewed as a punishment in England and I cannot understand why. It is a traditional trophy. We have lost the Cup Winners' Cup, which I did not think was a good decision. But it was taken to enrich the Europa League."
"The most important quality we want to communicate is that the Uefa Europa League is dramatic," it reads.
The Europa League continues to be overshadowed by the Champions League, despite a high-profile rebranding of the competition in 2009.
Winners of the Champions League take home £7.24m, while the Europa League winners earn a third of that and the difference in TV revenue is also vast.
The prompt sheet - found at Tottenham's media conference ahead of Wednesday's 1-1 draw with Panathinaikos in Athens - asks press officers to brief players and coaches on the Europa League's virtues.
Other British clubs in the group stages include Liverpool and Newcastle.
"At the start of the press conference, below messages should be used by the club press officers," reads the prompt sheet.
"In addition, they may also be used by club press officers when briefing coaches and players as their would be of great support to us."
It then provides the following lines of advice:
- Uefa Europa League is prestigious - it provides clubs, players and fans with the challenge of competing in European football for an elite trophy.
- Uefa Europa League is rich in heritage having provided some of European football's most memorable moments and characters in recent years.
Spurs boss Andre Villas-Boas, who won the Europa League with Porto in 2011, praised the competition on Wednesday.

If they want to add value for the competition, they should stop putting so many teams from England and Spain. It's not interesting watching 6 minor Spanish teams competing against each other, or Newcastle and Fullham fielding reserve sides. The competition is already very important for teams from other countries but UEFA insists in putting money before sportmanship with this. And bring CWC back.

I can't understand why more teams don't already treat it seriously.
Of course, the CL is for the cream of the crop in Europe and that's out of thousands of professional football teams.
EL is for the best of the rest. The point of a CL place for the winners is an obvious one.
I'd say it's like saying "We didn't win the PL but did lift the FA cup!"
You would still celebrate winning it!!
Comment number 331.drolbor

I preferred Euro competitions old skool.
Champions League for Champions only.
Cup Winners Cup for FA Cup equivalent winners.
UEFA cup for everyone else.
It's all about money when a team that finishes 4th in EPL, Spanish or Serie A get priority over Malta champions. Think it devalues the spirit of the competition.
Bring back CWC.
Comment number 330.Kurt Replei

I agree that letting teams that fail and finish third in the CL groups then go into the Europa League completely undermines the competition.
UEFA have to stop that, and field matches on Tuesday & Wednesdays, for it to be taken seriously.
Comment number 329.Mister Chops
6th October 2012 - 9:21
Europa League should definitely be taken more seriously, not just by fans but by Uefa themselves. It shouldn't need talking up if it was improved, for example:
No CL dropouts.
Less teams in the group stage, or no GS at all.
Qualification based on cup perfomances.
Winner gets a CL place.
The problem with the Europa League at the moment is too many games for a 'second tier' tournament.

Separation technologies for water and concentrates
Our separation concept offers industry good water quality, energy efficiency and resource recovery.
We make use of VTT´s multi-technological perspective – especially its know-how in filtration, advanced filter material, microbial control, on-line monitoring and simulation – to develop novel concepts for producing adequate water quality and raw materials from process waters, wastewaters and concentrates.
Filtration technologies manage water scarcity and enable water reuse
Filtration – and membrane filtration in particular – is seen as one of the main solutions for purifying and recycling water. Our development of robust filtration concepts for different industrial applications also considers pre- and post-treatments and utilisation of residual concentrates, while the technologies we develop to control fouling attain good filtering performance, such as high fluxes with a minor footprint.
Our focus also reaches beyond traditional membrane filtration and dewatering technologies to embrace emerging technologies, such as forward osmosis (FO), foam-assisted sludge dewatering and biomimetic solutions. These new technologies target low energy and fouling with high rejections of contaminants.
Top experimental facilities strengthened by measuring and simulation
Water concepts are developed together with industry either in confidential customer projects or in joint research projects. Examples include Purification of waters containing humic substances (EU-EAKR), where we develop economic purification concepts for large-volume waters containing humic compounds.
In Novel tools for real-time measurement of early stage membrane fouling we develop real-time methods for better membrane filtration practices, together with companies and Lappeenranta University of Technology.
With the University of Hong Kong we study phenomena of fouling and concentration polarisation, in a project financed by the Academy of Finland and aimed at developing fouling prevention technologies for FO.
In Purification and monitoring concept for mining water treatment based on new water technologies project our target is to find purification concepts for mining water treatment, focusing especially on the potential of membrane filtration.
Our tools include the various simulation software and on-line measuring often used for concept development, and our experimental research uses test rigs both in lab and pilot scale.

Fake driver's licence racket bustComment on this story
Umlazi - Four men have been arrested in connection with a fake learner's and driver's licence racket in Umlazi, KwaZulu-Natal police said on Thursday.
The four were taken into custody on Wednesday after allegedly swindling a woman out of R11,000, spokesman Colonel Jay Naicker said.
They apparently took R5500 for a learner's licence and another R5500 for the driver's licence from an unsuspecting parent, who paid these amounts on her daughter's behalf.
Police pounced after the Road Traffic Inspectorate confirmed the licences were fraudulent. They confiscated a laptop computer and a printer, believed to have been used to make the licences, in two of the suspect's homes on Florida Road.
The men, aged between 24 and 29, would appear in the Umlazi Magistrate's Court on fraud charges on Friday. - Sapa

The Catholic Herald (UK) (www.catholicherald.co.uk/)
In the modern world, we are told, religion is being pushed to the side. Church-going is down, cynicism is up, and old-fashioned Christianity is not so slowly going the way of the penny-farthing bicycle. And nowhere, we are told, is this more apparent than in Hollywood, land of the superficial, the catch-a-passing-trend, the every-man-for-himself. And then there is Mark Wahlberg.
The Catholic Herald (UK) (www.catholicherald.co.uk/)
12/28/2010 (3 years ago)
Published in Celebrity
Keywords: Mark Wahlberg, Hollywood, Catholic, Actor
LONDON, UK (UK Catholic Herald) - In the modern world, we are told, religion is being pushed to the side. Church-going is down, cynicism is up, and old-fashioned Christianity is not so slowly going the way of the penny-farthing bicycle. And nowhere, we are told, is this more apparent than in Hollywood, land of the superficial, the catch-a-passing-trend, the every-man-for-himself.
And then there is Mark Wahlberg.
"Being a Catholic is the most important aspect of my life," the A-list actor tells me firmly when we meet for tea in a posh hotel near his home in Beverly Hills. "The first thing I do when I start my day is, I get down on my hands and knees and give thanks to God. Whenever I go outside of my house, the first thing I do is stop at the church. The kids will be mad with me. 'Daddy! It takes too long!' I'm saying: 'It's only 10 minutes and this is something I really need to do.' Because I do. If I can start my day out by saying my prayers and getting myself focused, then I know I'm doing the right thing. That 10 minutes helps me in every way throughout the day."
If anyone has learned the benefit of a spiritual life, it is Mark. A troubled young man from a rough area of Boston, the youngest of nine children of a delivery driver father and a bank clerk mother, he grew up delinquent and drug-addicted, a high school drop-out and gang member, always in trouble with the police, living constantly under the threat of jail. When he was only 16, that threat became a reality. High on the drug PCP, he robbed a pharmacy, knocked one man unconscious, left another blind in one eye, and attacked a security guard. He was charged with attempted murder and sentenced to jail at Boston's Deer Island House of Correction.
It was, he says now, gratefully, the beginning of the rest of his life.
"There's nothing scarier than being 16 years old, hearing the jail house door close behind you, and knowing that you're not going to leave. I'd brought it on myself. A lot of bad things happened to me when I was young, and I did a lot of bad things too. I was too cool for school, I'd made my mistakes and I was paying for them. I'd lost sight of my religion. My parents were Catholic but not devoutly so, and once I'd started venturing out on to the street that wasn't important to me at all. But, of course, once you get into trouble, you start praying! 'Oh, my God, just get me out of here, and I swear I'll never do it again!'
"Well, I did get out of jail, and I did make sure I never went back there. The recidivism rate for people going back for jail sentences is through the roof, but not me. I did not want to be another statistic. I wanted to live my life instead." His first port of call when he left the House of Correction was to visit his parish priest, Fr Flavin of Boston, who is still a good friend. With Fr Flavin's help he left his street gang, cleaned up his act and devoted his attention to putting his spiritual house in order. And for the first time, he says, his life started to make sense.
"Once I focused on my faith wonderful things started happening for me," he says now. "And I don't mean professionally - that's not what it's about. These days, I'll be in church and people will come up to me and say: 'Do you mind if I sit and pray with you?' And they'll start praying and it'll turn out they're praying for their new movie to be a success or whatever, and I'm like, this is not what I come here for. For me to sit down and ask for material things is ridiculous. It's a much bigger picture than that. I want to serve God and to be a good human being and to make up for the mistakes I made and the pain I put people through. That's what I'm praying for, and I recommend it to anybody."
Which is not to say that material success has exactly been hiding from him. One of the original members of the popular boy band of the 1980s New Kids on the Block, he branched out on his own to become pop music-singing sensation Marky Mark, and briefly became very famous indeed on the side as an underwear model before turning his attention to conquering the world of acting. ("When I do something," he has commented with some understatement, "I am very focused.")
He started out in Hollywood by rather cleverly sending up his beefcake reputation playing a porn star in Boogie Nights before moving on to the action films which are of more interest to him, and made a name for himself in movies like Three Kings, The Perfect Storm and The Italian Job before winning worldwide acclaim and an Academy Award nomination playing a heavy-swearing detective in Martin Scorsese's blockbusting thriller (set, incidentally, in Mark's own Boston) The Departed.
These days he is in the fortunate - and in Hollywood, extremely rare - position of being able to do more or less what he wants. Last year he played a grieving father in the family drama The Lovely Bones; earlier this year, he hammed it up as an over-the-top action hero in the comedy Date Night. Right now he is to be seen playing "Irish" Mickey Ward in The Fighter, the bio-pic of the renowned Bostonian boxer, a project that has been close to his heart for some time. Meanwhile, he has also made his name as a highly successful producer of popular television shows like Entourage, In Treatment and Boardwalk Empire. Not bad, you will agree, for a kid who didn't even make it out of high school.
"But that's not what it's about," he insists. "Being a good actor or a good producer: that's not going to help me sleep at night or get me into heaven. The most important thing from where I sit is to be a good father, a good husband, and a good human being - a man who helps his fellow man and raises his kids to be good human beings too."
Mark and his wife, model Rhea Durham, have four children, Ella, seven, Michael, four, Brendan, two, and Margaret, nearly one, and are expecting another next year. "Every single aspect of my family life is joy," he smiles now.
"And the most important thing to remember about being a father is that you can't leave anybody out. I get up really early in the morning but the baby is usually up before me because my wife feeds her at five o'clock and then puts her into the swing so that she and I can have our own little time together when I take my wife a coffee before the day begins. Then the day is taking my older kids to school or to karate or whatever they have. The youngest boy is already trying to get in with the bigger kids so we make time for him too. At five in the evening we all sit down and have dinner together and after that it's pandemonium for a couple of hours until we can get them into bed! It's great!"
Although Thea and he have been in a committed relationship since 2001, it was only in August 2009 that they made their wedding vows at the church of the Good Shepherd in Beverly Hills. The reason for this, he says, was not lack of the will but simple logistics.
"Rhea grew up Baptist but she wanted to be baptized and confirmed as Catholic before we got married, which took some time. Also, we wanted to get married here in California but we wanted Fr Flavin from Boston to do it, so we had to work out that timing. Then there were my movie commitments. Then Rhea got pregnant and she didn't want to do it when she was bigger so we had to wait till the dress fitted again. it was a number of factors really."
Now that they are good and hitched, he says, they could not be happier.
"My wife is gorgeous but if you're going to have a real relationship with someone it's going to have to be based on what's inside as well as out, what kind of person they are and what kind of values they have.
"I'm one of the luckiest guys in the world because I met one of the most beautiful women in the world who also is very nice and approachable, very comfortable to be with and has a great sense of humour. And. well, I don't know which one of the lines I used on her was the one that actually got her but she fell for one of them! And all these years later we have four beautiful children and each other.
"I'm just a very lucky guy. In so many ways."

does this mean 8gb or what? I've always doubted this claim as I was bitten by the claim that the last series 9 8gb was a possible upgrade.

Hey Charlie, The on BD 4GB means that the device has 4GB of onboard memory. 4GB of system memory is also available meaning 8GB in total is included within the laptop. The laptop supports a maximum of 8GB system memory giving a total of 12GB potential memory available for this laptop. Thanks.

One of the world's largest mobile phone networks, Vodafone, has just announced a deal with Google that will see Google Maps integration for European mobile phone customers.
Google Maps for mobile, a downloadable java application, is expected to offer customers in selected markets easy-to-use maps and local listings, as well as local search and navigation capabilities. Customers will be able to enjoy unlimited use of Google Maps for mobile, subject to Vodafone data tariffs.
Ok, so it's news. I'd assume that our readers would want to know about the deals Google is making, but is it really that big of a deal? It's starting to feel overkill to keep posting every single deal that Google makes. There's no financial details disclosed, so we don't even know if this is a significant partnership or not.

The second most common seabird in the Hawaiian Islands, the laysan albatross, has a population of about 874,000 and its numbers are decreasing.
According to the 2006 IUCN Red List, the laysan albatross is categorized as Vulnerable. 19 of the 21 albatross species are threatened with extinction.
The laysan albatross is a large seabird but small (81cm) for its family. The laysan has a dark grey back, mantle, tail and wings, and a white underbelly and head. The plumage resembles that of a gull but the beak is a pinkish color with a darker tip.

As I also paid 'crazy' postage per pack I am a long way from being happy with my purchase. Impulse Purchase's response: Thank you for the feedback. In our defence we have sold over 2,000,000 Wine Label Removers in the 4 years since we launched the product and have receive an extremely low number of poor reviews. We can't confirm that the Wine Labels will remove every wine label in the world but we are very confident that the product works 99% of the time. The postage costs are sadly down to the Post Office rates and the fact we have a third party distribution outlet that picks and packs all our orders. No profit (in fact in many cases, we lose money on postage) is made on the delivery charges of this product. If you would like us to send you another pack free of charge, I would be happy to do so. Kindest regards Stewart Tue 18 Mar 2014 Excellent! Wed 29 Jan 2014 This product is better than an equivalant I bought from the USA at removing labels without too much tearing and damage. Seems to be doing the job well so far, would definately consider another purchase. Wed 22 Jan 2014 Clever idea and good price. Sun 19 Jan 2014 Perfect, as described. Sun 15 Dec 2013 Arrived quickly! Very good ++ Fri 29 Nov 2013 Bought as gift, don't know about performance Wed 04 Sep 2013 I have tried other wine label removers and these are by far the best. Fri 08 Feb 2013 Have used this product before and probably will again when I have finished these. Tue 04 Dec 2012 Does what it says on the tin. Mon 03 Dec 2012 I used the labels on 3 different types of wine bottles. I followed the instructions to the letter, but on all three occasions none of the original wine labels came off in one piece. I ended up soaking them off with hot water. Impulse Purchase's response: Thank you for your feedback, we are sorry to hear that you are not totally happy with your purchase. Although we cannot guarantee every single wine label in the world can be removed, we receive very positive comments to an innovative product. I would be very happy to send you a new pack of 10 Wine Label Removers free of charge. Please can you let me know that the same postal address applies.

So now the Hairpiece has endorsed the Haircut, and not the Harebrained. Sweetheart, get me rewrite!
There have been many great visuals so far in this campaign. There was Michele Bachmann's faraway eyes, and Herman Cain in his fedora, and Rick Perry standing astride the beaten, bloody corpse of the English language. But this is a serious winner. Donald Trump, standing in Vegas amid a bunch of casinos that, unlike his own, have not gone broke, endorsing Willard Romney for president and basking once again in the low-wattage neon that passes for the spotlight in his silly little life.
There should not have been a single second of news coverage of this non-event. There should be not a microsecond of speculation as to What This All May Mean. (Would you put a substantial amount of money down on the proposition that Donald Trump will even vote in Novermber? I wouldn't.) There shouldn't be the wisp of a scintilla of a shadow of a thought wasted on how this sideshow will affect the voting patterns of any group of voters with the collective IQ of a cruller. No, this should be one of those campaign stories that get passed over in B-roll, like the lady who's been to every convention since '32, or the guy in New Hampshire waving the rubber rat.
The one thing for which we can all be grateful as the campaign has gone on is that the cheap celebrity glow brought to it by Trump's preposterous presence largely has died away. That started when the president picked him up and spanked him in front of all of official Washington on the very night he'd given orders to pop Osama bin Laden halfway across the world. Then the various now-departed gossoons paid him court in various levels of disguise. That leaves us with four guys who, I guarantee you, wish deep in their vestigial souls that they didn't have to get within 12 miles of this rodeo clown. He will have his one day here. He will then go out and, even having endorsed Romney, spend at least four months "hinting" at a third-party run which, of course, would be a nail in the tire of the Romney campaign more than it would be anyone else. Give Willard credit. He's found a guy more soulless, more completely self-involved, even than the man that he's become. By the time he gets to the White House, his reflection isn't even going to appear in a mirror.

So last night I played one game with my fellow duders, and it was the first time I have come away from the game with a negative feeling.
I am a n00b with around 22 games under by belt now. In all of those games I've felt that I have done myself a decent turn and helped as part of a team. Winning or losing still to me doesn't really matter, as I'm still learning, but last night it did.
As part of the Single Draft I got handed my first Drow Ranger. Now having been a support for 21 games I thought I'd give it my best go with one of the strongest heroes in the game.
Here was my chance to run a game with someone other than Tinker.
I failed.
Maybe it was the other team ganging up on me. Maybe it was my just being an idiot.
But as I solo'd in the middle lane and tried to do as well as I could, I fed to Phantom Assassin across the pond from me and ended up stinking up the game.
So much so that I logged in early this morning before work to play a bot game with Drow to figure out just what went wrong.
So my question is this; have you ever came out of a game of DOTA dejected? Why? Was it your own fault? Was it someone moaning? What did you do to learn from it?

Q: I have two credit-card balances that I'm trying to pay off. You suggest targeting the smallest debt first and then combining that payment with the minimum payment on the other one, thus paying the larger one off faster.
My smaller credit-card debt has an interest rate of 1.99 percent which I negotiated for the entire balance as long as it takes to pay off. The larger credit card has several layers of interest rates which average about 10 percent. Wouldn't it be better to pay off the larger debt at the high interest rate first, and then pay off the smaller one?
A: By targeting the shortest debt first the Rapid Debt-Repayment Plan addresses the mathematical aspects of rapidly repaying debt and also fulfills the need many of us have for frequent emotional payoffs when tackling something difficult. Of course, this is more dramatic when a person has a greater number of debts than you.
I suggest you use the RDRP Calculator (an online member benefit) at DebtProofLiving.com and figure your payoff plan both ways--allowing the calculator to determine the pay off order and then a second time using the manual override to put your largest debt in the first position.
Compare the two scenarios then choose the method that's right for you. What really matters here is that you kick your repayment efforts into high gear.
By the way, that 1.99 percent interest? Don't get too used to it. Regardless what they "promised," the fine print in your contract is the ruling authority. They can (and they will, trust me) change the terms any time for any reason. Get ready for them to jack that rate to 15.99 or more.
I know I must sound like a broken record, but I will say it again: You need to do whatever it takes to pay these credit-card debts as quickly as possible. You cannot afford what's coming if you delay.

How does being beautiful or deformed make others treat you differently? That was the central theme in tonight's episode, and it brought out some unexpected twists and revealing moments for House, as well as the POTW.Kenny is on his way to Princeton-Plainsboro for surgery to correct the major congenital facial deformity that keeps him from being "just another face in the crowd." The catch is that the entire experience is being filmed (and bank-rolled) by a documentary crew. Everything's set to go in the OR and Chase is about to perform the surgery when the kid has a heart attack, followed by a host of other symptoms that seem to jeopardize his facial surgery.Meanwhile, Dr. Terzi (Michael Michele) has shown up for "class" with the rest of the Wannabes, who immediately start trying to figure out whether she's guaranteed one of their coveted spots. House, who clearly has the hots for her, can't stand the fact that he's sort of hired her, and has a little heart to heart wit...

House will have to deal with having a camera (and his Wannabes) in his face. Peter Jacobson and Hugh Laurie by Greg Gayne/Fox
After last week's visit to the CIA, House is back at Princeton-Plainsboro, and while he no longer has Generic Guy on the team (thanks to his complete freak-out and borderline illegal behavior), there is one new face around: Dr. Samira Terzi (Michael Michele). House already tried luring her into bed with his crude yet oddly charming banter; how is he going to handle her as one of the team hopefuls? Only time will tell. Meanwhile, the POTW is being followed by a documentary crew, which should spice things up a bit. See you after the episode!

Michael Michelle by Lester Cohen/WireImage.com
One thing you can say for Princeton Plainsboro: Understaffing is not an issue. Although House's hospital already has hired five new doctors to make the rounds this season, former ER M.D. Michael Michele has just been tapped to scrub in as well.Now, before you go getting your stethoscope in a knot about your favorites being left to simmer on the back burner, you need to know that the knockout isn't coming in as a series regular. Well, at this point, anyway. What happens is, Doc Crankypants meets the CIA medicine woman when he's called to the agency to care for a patient. She wows him with her bedside manner, and wham, bam, thank-you-ma'am, he invites her to come work for him at PP.So what do you think, people? Is Michele just what the doctor ordered? -- Additional reporting by Ben Katner

They both wanted Michele to star. "Michael never had the opportunity to do a role like this, so I knew that would make her very excited and committed," La Salle says.

Question & Answers
Improve social rating
How do you improve social rating in the hotel ratings? i collect coins from neighbors but still only have only 1/2 a star on that scale
Answer from: kayluhh
You have to improve your social name. when you collect coins, it gives you xp in the social. as of right now, i am named a hotel manager and only have one star. its obviously a super long process to improve it.
Answer from: howlingwolf
That's not true, i'm also hotel manager and i have 2 and a half star. you just have to visit a lot of people. here's a tip: every time you visit someone tap just 1 room, and not three or two. the social rating goes really slow so you have to be patience. good luck ;)!
Answer from: Jvkitkat
I'm manager as well and i have 5 stars. i visit lots of people everyday and both upgrade coins and pop balloons (easy way to get coins and the balloon popper achievements).
Answer from: Courtney
I am senior in my social rating and i only have one star. and i also pop all balloons when visiting my neighbors and it it's going up any.
Answer from: Char
I really don't think visiting neighbours has anything to do with the social star rating... i am on 'owner' and visit dozens of neighbours a day and my star rating for social is only 1.5 star... i think it's to do with your social rooms and how many times you get the top prize!
Answer from: Ynot88
I have 5 stars build your rank through connectots, hotel size, social (by clicking on visit button and tapping neigbours coins), if you build pet rooms make sure you build also kids to make kid friendly ranking, party rooms, decorations, fun rooms. lots of balloons both regular and hearts im at 10000 level now on balloons. in the guest book you'll see completion of hearts, party room, and food. yes, food as in bakery etc. it also depends on how fast you want to build up - more coins and treats. not worth completing task using except maybe 1 treat for food
Answer from: Summer
I think as your hotel grows your social name has to too to keep lots of stars just like you have to build more connectors. it def has something to do with neighbors because my stars are telling me to get out more to improve my ranking. most of my other stuff is already high

text: Since the Global Crisis the authorities have been focusing on how to make banks safer, with changes to capital and liquidity requirements. Corporate governance of banks and the wider risk culture are also in the frame. Laeven and Ratnovski (2014) look at governance and raise three aspects: better risk management, regulation of pay, and enhanced market discipline. Another lens is to consider the effectiveness of the board and in particular its independence. However, several papers (e.g. Erkens et al. 2012 and Adams 2012) have found that this is negatively related to outcomes in the Crisis.

Ah, welcome to this weeks "weekly marketing cache," the second one ever! Oh, and before we get on with conversion tools and some best practices this week, someone asked me how thick the forests were here…hope the image explains it all.
So, conversion practices and tools, what a subject matter for this week. This subject of marketing is not only the most sought out online, it has created one monster of an industry around it, the guru industry!
Let's look at some of the best practices real quick and, some news from around the web on the subject together!
Tools And Practices That Convert…
Let's start with some tools I found pretty unique and, rather profitable.
Nice Notifications
This unique little tool in just a few weeks has worked rather well if you as me. What is it? Well, if you have read this article this far, look at the orange button, it sits on the nice notifications bar.
For 14$ it is not a bad deal as a stand alone WordPress plugin to help you build your list a little faster than just a sidebar opt in form. (Visit the plugin details here).
Negatives, it is a little less than mobile friendly, you have to adjust it until it looks good on all platforms, but, like this one above, it can be done.
This bar can be placed on individual pages for more targeted calls t o action or well, whatever you like. It can be made to be a little intrusive or not, hopefully mine is not. But, either way, it is visible and eye catching!
Ninja Pop Ups
Okay, I love the fact that my form worked…to a point. In one of my latest articles and posts, Different Types of CTA's a beginners look at them, I go into some detail about the truly annoying and negative parts of a third party plugin for catching subscribers.
For now I will tell you this; for some business types and industries, this could be a perfect tool for converting visitors into subscribers. This is of course you follow my instructions in the article.
Oh, and what I mean is to take a look at the actual visitors engagement through your analytics provider and determine the best placement as far as visual, time pop up occurs, sales copy and, what information you are going to require. And, I mean per page!
But, while the name of the plugin you can see here sounds goofy, it does work and does make sense to use if your needs are relevant for it.
In The News For This Week!
Ahhhh, mobile is up again. Nearly 48-50% of all searches today are done via mobile device. So, if your conversion rate seems to be falling, it is not due to a drop in search engines as the major player of finding information, it is your site!
Responsive design today is a non-negotiable force today, period. And, search engine optimization partnered with searcher focused content as you can see mean a whole heck of a lot today!
Interesting, yeah? By the way, updated designs have increase conversion rates by 33% as of late. (KissMetrics)
You know what else we notice here, BRANDED sites are up as well. This means that you and I were left with some serious satisfaction with the companies content, not just their products and services.
They built authority and trust with us…
Email, The Biggest "SOCIAL" Platform?
Yep, Kissmetrics.com did it again, their studies have shown that there are more people interacting and spend more time in their email than Facebook and Twitter combined!
Here's the quote:

The state health department will be making 22,500 doses of influenza vaccine available to high-risk people this week as a dwindling supply has closed flu shot clinics and left people searching in vain for an inoculation.
The doses are part of an order the Arizona Department of Health Services will receive and dole out to the state's 15 counties by Friday, with Maricopa County getting about 60 percent of the total, or about 13,500 flu shots.
Officials are asking that counties provide vaccinations only to those at high risk, including seniors, children ages 6 to 23 months, people with chronic health conditions such as asthma and diabetes, and people with weakened immune systems.
"I think it's going to be a nice little boost," said Catherine Eden, director of the state health department.
Counties cannot charge for the vaccine, but they may require an administrative fee, said Michael Murphy, a spokesman for the state health department. For more information, call the state's flu hotline at (602) 364-0244 or (866) 894-1594.
Although additional vaccine is welcome news, health care providers said it's unlikely the doses will meet intense demand for vaccinations this year.
"Any amount of vaccine is helpful," said Dr. Art Mollen, whose clinics are the largest provider of flu shots in the state. With supplies dwindling, Mollen closed his clinics and is taking remaining doses to nursing homes. "Do I think it's adequate or sufficient? No."
The doses come as the nation copes with about half the flu vaccine supply it expected, a shortfall that occurred when British regulators halted the America-bound supplies from Chiron Corp. over contamination fears. The company is one of two major flu shot manufacturers supplying the United States.
This year's flu vaccine is coming from Aventis-Pasteur, which will be sending the additional doses to the state health department this week. The shipment makes up about half of an order the state placed last year for an emergency preparedness exercise in which health care workers would be trained in providing mass vaccinations. The event was canceled after the shortage was announced, Eden said.
The order was purchased using $250,000 from the State Health Crisis Fund. The money includes $70,000 for a public awareness campaign about how people can avoid getting the flu.
Public health officials in Arizona have criticized the nation's vaccine manufacturing and distribution systems, which are left almost entirely to the private sector. With manufacturers backing out of the vaccine business, the nation was left vulnerable to a shortage, they said. And with supplies available primarily through private health care providers, state officials and community leaders have been unable to direct high-risk people to remaining flu shot supplies.
Donavon Bonertz, 68, said he was relieved to hear he now has somewhere to turn for flu vaccine. The Mesa resident said he called dozens of places looking for a flu shot for his 79-year-old wife.
The state, he said, "should be involved this year with the shortage, and I will certainly go ahead and call them."
