Prem Kaa Game Movie Review
March 27, 2010 03:46:23 PM IST
By Joginder Tuteja, Bollywood Trade News Network
view PREM KAA GAME movie stills
No amount of extra a's could have saved PREM KAA GAME which has been rotting in the cans for close to 3 years. Earlier titled 'Shaadi Ke After Effects' (or was it 'Shaadi Ke Side Effects'?), the film was completed ages back and found reasonable buzz coming its way back then when it was touted as an Arbaaz Khan - Maliaka Arora Khan starrer. This was the first time when the couple was supposed to be coming on the big screen together and this made for a good promotional peg.
Well, as it happened, the film got stuck and while there was continuous tension prevailing amongst its director Indrajith Lankesh and producer Ashok Kheny, the former found his way getting stuck from the credit list. Not that the audience cared as even the people associated with the film moved on. No wonder, everyone from Arbaaz Khan, Malaika Arora to Tara Sharma kept their distance from this film which has suddenly been revived and thrown amidst dozens of releases which are arriving fast (and leaving faster) this IPL.
The only actor who was still interested? Newcomer Madhuri Bhattacharya, for whom this was always meant to be a big break in Bollywood, courtesy her femme fatale act in PREM KAA GAME. She is the kind of neighbour who could be the dream of any man, whether married or unmarried. No wonder, Arbaaz Khan falls in 'prem' while being unlike the namesake character that his real life brother has played in perhaps half a dozen films by now.
So while Salman Khan has been known for his 'one woman' stand that he has adopted every time on screen, Arbaaz doesn't quite mind being strayed. Now the hitch here is that he is pretty much married and while his wife (Tara Sharma) knows how to take care of his house, Arbaaz is definitely looking for greener pastures with someone else taking care of him.
Does all this sound anything new and enticing? Naaah. All of this is as predictable and passķ as it gets and while 'straying in marriage' may have been presented in a comical manner here, the roots can be found all the way back in 1980. Remember Sanjiv Kumar, Ranjeeta and Vidya Sinha who played similar characters in far more subtle and a clean family entertainer - PATI PATNI AUR WOH?
Nevertheless, the times have changed and hence the seduction quotient has moved a few notches higher up as well. So newbie Madhuri doesn't quite hesitate in scorching the screen with her glamorous act in PREM KAA GAME. Does that work? Yes, it does but when in totality PREM KAA GAME doesn't have much to offer, the glam factor in isolation doesn't really make the cut.
And well, why this gimmick of HUM SAATH SAATH HAI family show in PREM KAA GAME? With a wife (Malaika) as a dream girl and a brother (Salman) as a narrator, Arbaaz may well have thought of PREM KAA GAME as a good stepping stone for a solo hero act. Nothing wrong in the intentions; after all he has been around for a decade and a half and can be expected get ambitious. However, in the times when he too has moved on and now turned producer with DABANGG, Arbaaz can well be expected to cringe in his seat while dancing along with Malaika to the tune of a song that goes as 'I Wanna Fa Fa Fa.....'.
Got the picture?

Iconic fashion designer Roberto Cavalli, who has worked with some of the most gorgeous supermodels in the world, is now attacking them for not having enough "star quality."
Cavalli, who has used Kate Moss is several of his ads over the years, now describes her as a "professional clothes horse."
He added, "There are thousands of models like all the other thousands of models. Naomi Campbell is the same way. For me, models are just pieces of wood that I carve to make clothes look beautiful."
Yikes, when did things go bitter between Cavalli and his models? Cavalli was the one to give Moss her first modeling gig after her cocaine scandal. He thought she was pretty great back then, what changed?

A taste of New Orleans - dinner with Fox's K-Ville - TCA report
Rather than load all 200 plus members of the TCA on a plane to New Orleans, Fox decided to have a N.O.-themed party at Les Deux, a trendy restaurant in Hollywood in honor of its new series K-Ville, which has cast Anthony Anderson and Cole Hauser as cops in a post-Katrina Louisiana.
There was only man who could give me the full scoop on this series and what it will mean to New Orleans -- Times Picayune TV columnist Dave Walker
Fox's fall lineup and executive session - The Life of "Reilly" - TCA report
Fox entertainment president Kevin Reilly answered inquiries from TCA members on Sunday about a big name exiting the network -- only the network was NBC and the departure was Reilly's own.
Reilly poked fun at the standard reasons found in press releases that are used to explain a person's leaving a top gig. "No one is ever really fired in Hollywood are they," he rhetorically asked, adding, "You can pick whatever trade euphemism you want [to explain my exit from NBC]. 'I segued.' 'I thought about it over the holidays.' I want to spend more time with my family, which I did for three days.'"
Then, Fox hired him to work with Peter Liguori, the network's entertainment chairman.
Fox preview - Kelsey Grammer, Patricia Heaton, Bones - TCA report
Fox Broadcasting Company gets its turn today to go in front of the TCA membership at the Beverly Hilton's International Ballroom.
You can bet Kevin Reilly, president, entertainment, Fox Broadcasting Company, is going to be asked a few questions about his exit last spring from NBC.
Once those inquiries get out of the way, Reilly, and Peter Liguori, Fox's chairman, entertainment, will tout Fox's upcoming TV shows.
Kevin Reilly is new entertainment prez at Fox
Reilly is reuniting with former co-worker, Peter Liguori, who has been promoted to entertainment chairman at Fox. The two teamed up when they worked at FX and brought edgy shows such as The Shield and Nip/Tuck to that network. Fox evidently wants some of that mojo.
Reilly's first challenge is to get people to watch some of Fox's new shows, none of which he chose. I'm hoping he'll give a little love to Unhitched, the Farrelly brothers comedy that is by far the best thing Fox has going for it in the fall.
Kevin Reilly may be picked up by Fox
This is a smart pairing for Fox. Liguori and Reilly brought mega-hits to FX including The Shield and Nip/Tuck. And, judging from this spring's upfronts presentation from Fox, the network could use some edgier programming. There's no doubt that Reilly has an eye for quality programming (Friday Night Lights), but his downfall with NBC was his inability to bring the network out of fourth place.
FOX president says "spring is the new fall" - TCA Report
It's something that FOX Entertainment president Peter Liguori is concerned about, and he addressed it at his TCA session this morning. He almost sounded like a victim, held hostage by the sports' division's suckage of time during the month of October and hamstrung by what it forces him to do. It strikes me as a bit disingenuous, because FOX paid a lot of money for the playoffs, and it was their decision to air so many games. Anyway, Liguori seemed almost happy that the network, who lost the division round and one LCS round, will broadcast less games this fall.
Fox president think fans of serialized dramas deserve closure
Why is he so concerned? Apparently, the serialized show he axed last year, Reunion (see picture above), has been used by the critics as the poster child for network mistreatment of such shows. Every network president has gotten a Reunion-related question when talking about his or her company's new serialized shows. So I'm sure Liguori isn't all that happy with being the source of those questions. At least he's aware of the problem and willing to fix it. We'll see if he and other executives actually do.
FOX chief makes funny joke
"We have the best time slot on television to launch a show...if you're a comedy writer with a great idea, FOX is the place to come."
Two words Peter: Arrested Development.
Oh, I know, I know, the show isn't coming back. I'm not whining about it, and I'm not even saying it should come back. My point is that Liguori would make a statement like this with a straight face. FOX has had many great comedies over the past 10 years, and they've either canceled them, shuffled them around the schedule, or replaced them with lesser comedies.
You have the best time slot to launch a comedy? Hey, cancel The Loop and you'll have two.
Arrested Development's development out on bail? And a TV Squad apology
First off, no one loves Arrested Development more than I do. I can remember the first time I saw this quirky little show about a way-dysfunctional family, and thought "that makes mine look slightly more normal." On this site alone, I've written love letter after love letter in the form of reviews. I've signed every petition, I've tuned in for every episode and I own both seasons, so far, on DVD. That still wasn't enough for FOX, and no matter how much I loved the show, I'm only one man, and it appeared the majority of America disagreed with me.
Late last year, FOX announced that they were cutting back the ordered episodes of Arrested Development, from 22 to 13, a sure sign that a show is cancelled. Like a spoiled child with a broken toy, though, FOX still refused (as of this morning, even) to let go and "officially" cancel the show, waiting instead to see if there was "potential for the show to still find it's audience on FOX" (-Peter Liguori, Development President), you know, with it's final four episodes. The ones that are airing back to back Friday February 10th. Against the Opening Ceremonies of the Winter Olympics. Yea, that's going to be a ratings juggernaut. Even though the show hasn't been canceled, and therefore there can't be any "real" discussions about the show being picked up by another network, there has certainly been a fair share of rumors. And this, my dear TV Squad readers, is where I have to apologize.

FORT MYERS, Florida ��A Florida police officer went above and beyond the call of duty to help a wheelchair bound man stranded in a pounding rain storm, and it was all caught on a dashboard camera.
Officer Gil Benitez works the night beat. On the night of Thursday, Aug. 14, around 8:30 p.m. he received an unusual call of a man in a wheelchair stuck in the rain.
"It was raining so hard, I couldn't even see the stop sign" Benitez said.
He found Michael Arnold sitting in his electric wheel chair on the side of the road.
"The wind picked up like crazy" Arnold said. "I got to the end of the street and everything just stopped on me."
Arnold was just a block away from his home.
Within seconds of Benitez arriving to help Arnold, lightning struck near the two. After checking himself, he finished the job he started.

Diva Gigs review
One of the growing number of classically trained performers turning to cabaret, Sarah-Ann Cromwell is the only one delivering a full set of opera. It's a nice USP but this is far from a gimmicky show: it's simply a pleasure, partly because of the quality of Cromwell's voice but also because of her enormous charm, engaging humour and relaxed manner. The set is loosely structured around her career switch to singing from teaching (that experience might account for her down-to-earth ease with an audience, and her delivery being a trifle de trop at times) and, after opening with a Bach oratorio, she wisely balances canonical pieces with works in English, from an excitably gossipy 'Trouble in Tahiti' to unfamiliar, almost music-hall-style songs by female Victorian composers. Each is lightly but effectively contextualised and Cromwell's passion for the works themselves and her performance of them is plain. The benefit of creating her own show, she notes, is that 'I get to do the music that I want to do, not the music I ought to do'. That pleasure shines through from beginning to end.

What is driving the cost of health care? |
| Print | |
Articles - May 2013 |
Monday, April 29, 2013 |
Page 2 of 5
Cost shiftingSince uninsured patients can't afford to see a doctor or partake of preventive treatments, they typically end up in costly emergency rooms for their primary care. According to the Oregon Association of Hospitals & Health Systems (OAHHS), the state's annual number of emergency room visits rose 5% between 2007 and 2011, and outpatient visits rose 15%. Inpatient days — when a doctor has ordered a patient to be admitted — fell 3%, with fewer inpatient admissions and shorter lengths of stays. With 320 ER visits per 1,000 people in 2010, Oregon fared better than 42 other states, but, unfortunately, many of these visits are on the house. When hospitals deem a patient unable to pay, they provide "charity care," which ballooned nearly 600% in the decade ending in 2011. "Bad debt," hospital bills that patients refuse to pay, rose almost 150% in the same period. Together charity care and bad debt comprise what hospitals call "uncompensated care." In Oregon's urban areas, uncompensated care approached 8% of gross charges after the last recession — it neared 9% in Oregon's rural hospitals — before improving in 2011. To make up for these losses, hospitals can't look to government programs. Medicare pays just 81 cents, and Medicaid 86 cents, for each "dollar spent caring for beneficiaries," OAHHS claims. So ultimately, hospitals must balance budgets by "cost shifting" losses and deficits to the bills of private-insurance patients. In the end, lowering hospital bills will require tackling enormous twin challenges of bad debt and charity care.

ABSTRACT: Introduction There is increasing international interest in universal, health promoting services for pregnancy and the first three years of life and the concept of proportionate universalism. Drawing on a narrative review of literature, this paper explores mechanisms by which such services might contribute to health improvement and reducing health inequalities. Objectives Through a narrative review of empirical literature, to identify: (1) What are the key components of health visiting practice? (2) How are they reflected in implementing the universal service/provision envisaged in the English Health Visitor Implementation Plan (HVIP)? Design The paper draws upon a scoping study and narrative review. Review Methods We used three complementary approaches to search the widely dispersed literature: (1) broad, general search, (2) structured search, using topic-specific search terms (3) seminal paper search. Our key inclusion criterion was information about health visiting practice. We included empirical papers from United Kingdom (UK) from 2004 to February 2012 and older seminal papers identified in search (3), identifying a total of 348 papers for inclusion. A thematic content analysis compared the older (up to 2003) with more recent research (2004 onwards). Results The analysis revealed health visiting practice as potentially characterized by a particular 'orientation to practice.' This embodied the values, skills and attitudes needed to deliver universal health visiting services through salutogenesis (health creation), person-centredness (human valuing) and viewing the person in situation (human ecology). Research about health visiting actions focuses on home visiting, needs assessment and parent-health visitor relationships. The detailed description of health visitors' skills, attitudes, values, and their application in practice, provides an explanation of how universal provision can potentially help to promote health and shift the social gradient of health inequalities. Conclusions Identification of needs across an undifferentiated, universal caseload, combined with an outreach style that enhances uptake of needed services and appropriate health or parenting information, creates opportunities for parents who may otherwise have remained unaware of, or unwilling to engage with such provision. There is a lack of evaluative research about health visiting practice, service organization or universal health visiting as potential mechanisms for promoting health and reducing health inequalities. This paper offers a potential foundation for such research in future.International Journal of Nursing Studies 07/2014; 52(1). DOI:10.1016/j.ijnurstu.2014.07.013 -

ABSTRACT: Biofeedback therapy has been used to treat the symptoms of people with chronic constipation referred to specialist services within secondary and tertiary care settings. However, different methods of biofeedback are used within different centres and the magnitude of suggested benefits and comparable effectiveness of different methods of biofeedback has yet to be established. To determine the efficacy and safety of biofeedback for the treatment of chronic idiopathic (functional) constipation in adults. We searched the following databases from inception to 16 December 2013: CENTRAL, the Cochrane Complementary Medicine Field, the Cochrane IBD/FBD Review Group Specialized Register, MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, British Nursing Index, and PsychINFO. Hand searching of conference proceedings and the reference lists of relevant articles was also undertaken. All randomised trials evaluating biofeedback in adults with chronic idiopathic constipation were considered for inclusion. The primary outcome was global or clinical improvement as defined by the included studies. Secondary outcomes included quality of life, and adverse events as defined by the included studies. Where possible, we calculated the risk ratio (RR) and corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) for dichotomous outcomes and the mean difference (MD) and 95% CI for continuous outcomes. We assessed the methodological quality of included studies using the Cochrane risk of bias tool. The overall quality of the evidence supporting each outcome was assessed using the GRADE criteria. Seventeen eligible studies were identified with a total of 931 participants. Most participants had chronic constipation and dyssynergic defecation. Sixteen of the trials were at high risk of bias for blinding. Attrition bias (4 trials) and other potential bias (5 trials) was also noted. Due to differences between study populations, the heterogeneity of the different samples and large range of different outcome measures, meta-analysis was not possible. Different effect sizes were reported ranging from 40 to 100% of patients who received biofeedback improving following the intervention. While electromyograph (EMG) biofeedback was the most commonly used, there is a lack of evidence as to whether any one method of biofeedback is more effective than any other method of biofeedback. We found low or very low quality evidence that biofeedback is superior to oral diazepam, sham biofeedback and laxatives. One study (n = 60) found EMG biofeedback to be superior to oral diazepam. Seventy per cent (21/30) of biofeedback patients had improved constipation at three month follow-up compared to 23% (7/30) of diazepam patients (RR 3.00, 95% CI 1.51 to 5.98). One study compared manometry biofeedback to sham biofeedback or standard therapy consisting of diet, exercise and laxatives. The mean number of complete spontaneous bowel movements (CSBM) per week at three months was 4.6 in the biofeedback group compared to 2.8 in the sham biofeedback group (MD 1.80, 95% CI 1.25 to 2.35; 52 patients). The mean number of CSBM per week at three months was 4.6 in the biofeedback group compared to 1.9 in the standard care group (MD 2.70, 95% CI 1.99 to 3.41; 49 patients). Another study (n = 109) compared EMG biofeedback to conventional treatment with laxatives and dietary and lifestyle advice. This study found that at both 6 and 12 months 80% (43/54) of biofeedback patients reported clinical improvement compared to 22% (12/55) laxative-treated patients (RR 3.65, 95% CI 2.17 to 6.13). Some surgical procedures (partial division of puborectalis and stapled transanal rectal resection (STARR)) were reported to be superior to biofeedback, although with a high risk of adverse events in the surgical groups (wound infection, faecal incontinence, pain, and bleeding that required further surgical intervention). Successful treatment, defined as a decrease in the obstructed defecation score of > 50% at one year was reported in 33% (3/39) of EMG biofeedback patients compared to 82% (44/54) of STARR patients (RR 0.41, 95% CI 0.26 to 0.65). For the other study the mean constipation score at one year was 16.1 in the balloon sensory biofeedback group compared to 10.5 in the partial division of puborectalis surgery group (MD 5.60, 95% CI 4.67 to 6.53; 40 patients). Another study (n = 60) found no significant difference in efficacy did not demonstrate the superiority of a surgical intervention (posterior myomectomy of internal anal sphincter and puborectalis) over biofeedback. Conflicting results were found regarding the comparative effectiveness of biofeedback and botulinum toxin-A. One small study (48 participants) suggested that botulinum toxin-A injection may have short term benefits over biofeedback, but the relative effects of treatments were uncertain at one year follow-up. No adverse events were reported for biofeedback, although this was not specifically reported in the majority of studies. The results of all of these studies need to be interpreted with caution as GRADE analyses rated the overall quality of the evidence for the primary outcomes (i.e. clinical or global improvement as defined by the studies) as low or very low due to high risk of bias (i.e. open label studies, self-selection bias, incomplete outcome data, and baseline imbalance) and imprecision (i.e. sparse data). Currently there is insufficient evidence to allow any firm conclusions regarding the efficacy and safety of biofeedback for the management of people with chronic constipation. We found low or very low quality evidence from single studies to support the effectiveness of biofeedback for the management of people with chronic constipation and dyssynergic defecation. However, the majority of trials are of poor methodological quality and subject to bias. Further well-designed randomised controlled trials with adequate sample sizes, validated outcome measures (especially patient reported outcome measures) and long-term follow-up are required to allow definitive conclusions to be drawn.Cochrane database of systematic reviews (Online) 03/2014; 3(3):CD008486.

ABSTRACT: Cel pracy Przegląd piśmiennictwa w celu zweryfikowania następującej hipotezy: zastosowanie leków przeciwgorączkowych u dzieci z ostrymi zakażeniami opóźnia wyzdrowienie. Schemat badania Przeprowadzono przegląd systematyczny i metaanalizę piśmiennictwa w celu oceny wpływu leków przeciwgorączkowych na ustąpienie objawów klinicznych chorób infekcyjnych u dzieci. Przeszukano bazy piśmiennictwa Medline (od 1946 roku do listopada 2012 roku) i EMBASE (od 1980 roku do 1 listopada 2012 roku) w celu znalezienia badań klinicznych, w których autorzy porównali zastosowanie leków przeciwgorączkowych z niefarmakologicznymi sposobami zwalczania gorączki. Wyniki Znaleziono 6 artykułów, z których 5 włączono do metaanalizy. Trzy badania przeprowadzono u dzieci chorych na malarię, a pozostałe trzy dotyczyły ogólnych zakażeń wirusowych, zakażeń wirusowych układu oddechowego oraz ospy wietrznej. Średnia różnica w czasie ustąpienia gorączki na podstawie połączonych danych wyniosła 4,16 godziny. Czas ten był krótszy u dzieci otrzymujących leki przeciwgorączkowe w porównaniu z dziećmi, które leczono bez stosowania tych leków (95% CI -6,35 do -1,96 godziny; p = 0,0002). Wykazano niewielkie różnice znamienne statystycznie (χ2 4,84; 4 df; p = 0,3; I2 17%). Wnioski Na podstawie analizowanych badań nie potwierdzono, że zastosowanie leków przeciwgorączkowych wydłuża czas ustępowania gorączki u dzieci.Pediatria polska 03/2014; DOI:10.1016/j.pepo.2014.02.002 -

ABSTRACT: Health professionals' personal health behaviors have been found to be associated with their practices with patients in areas such as smoking, physical activity and weight management, but little is known in relation to alcohol use. This review has two related strands and aims to: (1) examine health professionals' alcohol-related health promotion practices; and (2) explore the relationship between health professionals' personal alcohol attitudes and behaviors, and their professional alcohol-related health promotion practices. A comprehensive literature search of the Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, EMBASE, PsycINFO, CINAHL, British Nursing Index, Web of Science, Scopus and Science Direct (2007-2013) identified 26 studies that met the inclusion criteria for Strand 1, out of which six were analyzed for Strand 2. The findings indicate that health professionals use a range of methods to aid patients who are high-risk alcohol users. Positive associations were reported between health professionals' alcohol-related health promotion activities and their personal attitudes towards alcohol (n = 2), and their personal alcohol use (n = 2). The findings have some important implications for professional education. Future research should focus on conducting well-designed studies with larger samples to enable us to draw firm conclusions and develop the evidence base.International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health 01/2014; 11(1):218-48.

ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study was to enhance our understanding of factors that influence help-seeking in people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)-related fecal incontinence (FI), and their needs or desire for continence services. We conducted a survey of FI in community-dwelling people with IBD, all members of a United Kingdom IBD charity, and received 3264 responses. As part of the study, we asked 3 questions about help-seeking for IBD-related FI to which respondents were able to give free-text responses. We analyzed the responses to these help-seeking questions, continuing until data saturation when no new themes emerged (617 free text comments analyzed, 19% of total respondents). For the full survey, a mixed-methods design was used to collect and analyze quantitative and qualitative data. Qualitative (free-text) responses relating to help-seeking behavior reported in this article were analyzed using a pragmatic thematic approach. Seventy-four percent of the total sample (2415 out of 3264 respondents) reported some degree of FI. Of these, only 38% (n = 927) reported seeking help for FI. In the data reported in this article (n = 617), only 13.5% reported seeking help for FI. Help was described as satisfactory, unsatisfactory, or alternative (acupuncture, counseling, hypnotherapy). Reasons for not seeking help included believing nothing could be done, not knowing who to ask, feeling too embarrassed, ashamed or dirty, and perceived lack of interest, sympathy, or understanding from health care professionals. Although respondents wanted to talk to "someone with specialist knowledge about incontinence" only 6 out of 617 (0.9%) reported awareness of specialist continence services. Standard treatments were rarely mentioned (n = 2). Respondents' focus was on better management of FI rather than on cure. Many people with IBD-related FI are not aware of the services or treatments that are available to help them manage this distressing problem, and most do not seek help, often due to embarrassment and lack of knowledge that help might be possible. Clinical staff could communicate their awareness for the potential for FI to occur by proactively asking about symptoms during clinic appointments to provide an opportunity for symptoms to be disclosed and described.Journal of wound, ostomy, and continence nursing: official publication of The Wound, Ostomy and Continence Nurses Society / WOCN 11/2013; 40(6):631-8.

ABSTRACT: There is increasing evidence that exercise may improve symptoms in individuals with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This study aims to explore issues that clinicians may need to consider when giving advice on exercise to such individuals. Limited existing evidence suggests that low to moderate physical activity may improve symptoms without any adverse effects in individuals with IBD. This is largely supported by the findings of the current case series of "exercising" individuals with IBD who reported that low- to moderate-intensity exercise (most commonly walking) had a positive effect on their mood, fatigue, weight maintenance, and osteoporosis. Overexertion was reported as a potential problem. Scant advice regarding exercise had been given by their healthcare professionals according to participants. The current literature and findings of this small case series suggest that exercise is likely to be beneficial and safe for individuals with IBD. However, more research is required on which recommendations for exercise could be based.Gastroenterology nursing: the official journal of the Society of Gastroenterology Nurses and Associates 11/2013; 36(6):437-42.

Great place made for a great weekend!
Hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. Free manager's reception and breakfasts even made it better. Room was very comfortable. The beds were comfy and made us feel like we were at home.
We attended concert at Charter One Pavilion. Great venue, but recommend calling ahead to have cab waiting for you at end of concert. It was a very long walk before we were able to find cab back to hotel.
Great Hotel in Heart of Chicago
HAd a great stay! Very good location, the staff was friendly, and the room was spacious and clean. The beds were very comfortable. If they were queen beds they would've been perfect.

Within walking distance from Miracle Mile, Millennium Park/Grant park, The Tribune Bldg, and Navy Pier.
Panera Bread is a short walk north of the hotel. Great food, friendly,helpful staff
Everything was wonderful, up to and until we found the pool out of service. Really? Would have been nice to know going in, or we would have picked another hotel. Pools with children are a must. No discount for the disappointment.

Nice Hotel
It was a nice hotel. lacked a few minor things that would make this better. Need to improve the managers reception. I had kids who wanted pop as well as me and wife but the long lines made it hard. To many people getting alchol need to add a line for pop only.
Go across street to Dominiks and buy snacks and pop for a cheap cos.

BOPS comprises a set of rules that govern secure communications among a variety of client devices including mobile phones, desktop computers and ATMs, among others, and a trusted server managing the acquisition and manipulation of biometric data captured by those devices.
The BOPS guidelines make use of The U.S. Department of Defense's Trusted Computer Systems Evaluation Criteria (TCSEC) and are biometric agnostic.
"Nearly every smartphone, digital device or computer system that has a financial component to it will have a biometric component built into it in the very near future. The concerns about fraud, hacking and personal privacy have created a tidal wave of momentum on this front," said Hector Hoyos, CEO of Hoyos Labs.
"Now, securing all of the biometric data that's being generated is of the utmost importance. As with every major technological breakthrough, a series of accepted standards and protocols must be widely adopted from the manufacturer and database management end before consumers can fully be comfortable. BOPS are those standards and protocols," Hoyos added.
The BOPS system addresses the five most widely recognized key security consideration components:
Identity assertion The BOPS identity assertion platform provides a guarantee that named users are who they claim to be. The identity assertion implies reliance on human biometrics; however, the BOPS is an interoperable standard and can incorporate any identity asserter, or a number of asserters, that provides this guarantee. The application of the Intrusion Detection System (IDS) provides active monitoring to prevent spoofing of the credentials set and blacklisting of a subject or device that makes malicious attempts.
Role gathering Role gathering is focused on the data confidentiality and privileged access based on the rules enforced by a known system. To determine whether a specific access mode is allowed, the privilege of a role is compared to the classification of the group to determine if the subject is authorized for a confidential access. The objects structure is defined by the access control. Role gathering occurs on the system's level or through the client/server call. The BOPS server stores role-gathering information to associate a unique user with a unique device.
Access control The BOPS supports access control between the named users and the named objects (e.g., files and programs). The adjudication mechanism is role-based and allows users and administrators to specify and control the sharing of those objects by named individuals, or defined groups of individuals, or by both.
Auditing The BOPS supports all auditing requests at the subject/object level or at the group level. The BOPS uses Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP) to ensure that all calls are safely written to an audit trail. A RESTFul web services and JSON interface provides a mechanism to read the audit trail. Auditing may occur at the subject per action, the object per action or the group per action. For example, a group of users called "Accounting" may audit all writes to General Ledger. Or the "Chief Financial Officer" may have audits for reads of the Income Statement.
Assurance The auditing of all BOPS specifications and proof of the security model to prevent a system from unknowingly being compromised.
Planning for the Internet of Things
As organizations plan for the future, and how security has to operate within their business, they now have to worry about the IoT. Geoff Webb, Director of Solution Strategy at NetIQ, discusses the implications and likely impact of the Internet of Things.
German intelligence agency helped NSA spy on EU companies
Among the targets were European companies EADS (the manufacturer of Airbus planes) and Eurocopter, and European politicians, including German and French ones.
Banking botnets persist despite takedowns
More than 90 percent of all Trojans targeted financial institutions located in US, followed by the UK, Germany, Italy, Spain and Australia.
How attackers exploit end-users' psychology
Last year was the year attackers went corporate," exploiting middle management overload of information sharing, and trading off attack volume for sophistication.
How can organizations adapt to the rise in data breaches?
Theres more money currently dedicated to stopping data breaches than ever before; however, this money isnt always being sent in the right direction to truly put a stop to the problem

Financial Services Industry Advances High Performance Messaging With OpenMAMA Project
(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) SAN FRANCISCO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/28/12 -- The Linux Foundation, the nonprofit organization dedicated to accelerating the growth of Linux, today announced a variety of one-year project milestones for OpenMAMA that include important new code contributions, a fully open source software stack and the first commercial offering to result from the project.
OpenMAMA is a high performance, open source Middleware Agnostic Messaging API (MAMA) that provides a common, consistent interface for passing data between high volume, low latency messaging applications. Demand for high performance messaging in multiple industries has resulted in a variety of products from a wide range of providers, often leading to complex integration scenarios. The OpenMAMA project is a collaborative effort to develop a common, ultra-high-performance middleware API that connects a variety of message passing applications, reducing integration challenges and speeding time to deployment.
OpenMAMA was announced one year ago and is a part of Linux Foundation Labs, which includes other open source software and collaborative development projects that advance Linux or the Linux ecosystem. Participants in OpenMAMA include Bank of America Merrill Lynch, IBM, EMC, Exegy, Fixnetix, J.P. Morgan and NYSE Technologies, among others.
One-year project milestones for OpenMAMA include: * Eight software bridges have been developed for the project from a variety of organizations. Bridges enable external applications to pass data through OpenMAMA, eliminating complexity and work when integrating multiple data sources with multiple users and decreasing the difficulty of supporting custom and complex environments. Bridges and contributors include: AMQP implementation of Qpid, written and contributed by Red Hat Avis, written and contributed by NYSE Technologies Bloomberg Open API, written, supported and contributed by Tick 42 Data Fabric Multi Verb, written and supported by NYSE Technologies Exegy, written and supported by Exegy LBM, written and supported by NYSE Technologies Rai, written and supported by Rai WebSphere Front Office, under development by IBM * The OpenMAMA software stack is now completely open source, including a specific API for market data called OpenMAMDA and language support for C, C++, Java, and .Net. This completes the open sourcing process begun by project participants a year ago. From this point forward, all enhancements to the OpenMAMA codebase will come from the open source project, using proven open source development methods.
*The availability of OpenMAMA Enterprise Edition, a commercially supported and certified distribution of OpenMAMA from NYSE Technologies. This new offering is available from NYSE Technologies today as part of its Open Platform. For more information, please visit:
"The OpenMAMA project represents how collaborative development can advance technology innovation for an entire industry," said Jim Zemlin, executive director at The Linux Foundation. "In just one year, the project contributors have open sourced and expanded upon a project reduces complexity and cost for financial services companies. OpenMAMA was built for the financial services industry, but the problems it solves are also very applicable to other industries. There's already been interest from companies outside the finance industry, and we look forward to more." "Red Hat is excited to contribute to The Linux Foundation's OpenMAMA project, which has helped push Apache Qpid's Proton initiative to a working AMQP 1.0 implementation that can be embedded in other applications wishing to support the AMQP protocol," said Brian Stevens, CTO at Red Hat. "AMQP provides an open industry standard protocol for business messaging, allowing for a new type of application development that provides automatic interoperability with other applications at the wire level in both traditional MOM and emerging architectures. We look forward to industry adoption of the OpenMAMA project and anticipate that users of the OpenMAMA AMQP combination will see great cost benefits, as well as the technical benefits provided by AMQP's architecture and design."

Podcast: what do hostage deaths in Pakistan mean for US drone policy?
The Bureau's drones team discuss the news that three more US citizens were killed in a January drone strike in Pakistan.
Conflict experts told British lawmakers the UK is probably complicit in the secret drone war (Jim Trodel/Flickr)
It is 'inevitable' British spies are sharing intelligence with the US that is then used in drone strikes, a prominent UN expert told UK politicians yesterday.
Ben Emmerson QC, who is leading an ongoing drones investigation for the UN, and Professor Michael Clarke, director-general of military think-tank Rusi, told politicians there is little doubt the UK has given the US information used in drone strikes.
There's a reasonable presumption that the provision of information or sharing of information makes us complicit – Professor Michael Clarke
The British government has consistently refused to confirm or deny whether its spies have passed information to the US that has been used to target drone strikes in covert campaigns such as Pakistan and Yemen.
But Emmerson said that the UK and US intelligence relationship is so close that this type of information-sharing is 'inevitable'. He added: 'It would be absurd if it were not the case.'
UK drones have only been used to launch missiles where there is a declared war, Clarke said. According to the Bureau's estimate the US has launched over 430 covert drone attacks in Pakistan, Yemen and Somalia – beyond declared war zones such as Afghanistan.
'The integration of information operations and sharing means that of course we share information,' Clarke said. 'It would be very hard to say that the information that we share about people of interest isn't used for a drone strike.'
He added: 'There's a reasonable presumption that the provision of information or sharing of information makes us complicit in an American policy.'
He warned the issue is 'coming down the track with increasing force'.
Emmerson and Clarke spoke to members of both Houses of Parliament at an event organised by the All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Drones and the APPG on the UN.

A Pakistani tribesman is currently challenging the UK's silence on its alleged complicity in the CIA's lethal drone campaign in Pakistan. Noor Khan's father was one of as many as 40 civilians killed in a CIA strike in March 2011. His lawyers claim British spies who share intelligence with their CIA counterparts could be complicit in murder or war crimes if that information is used to target drone strikes.
The UK High Court rejected the case in 2012 saying that it could 'imperil international relations'. But as the Bureau reported yesterday, Khan is appealing and the latest stage of this unprecedented legal challenge is now before the Court of Appeal.
Canada, New Zealand and Australia also have close intelligence sharing relationships with the US. These countries with the US and UK make up the so-called Five Eyes, an alliance of Anglophone countries established after the second world war.
It emerged this summer that Australia's Pine Gap spy base has provided the US with the intelligence across the eastern hemisphere. It has intercepted radio transmissions from Pakistan and used the intelligence to fix the location of suspects, feeding this information into the CIA drone programme, according to the reports.

Spain's jobless rate rose yet again in September as the services sector laid off more workers at the end of the summer tourist season.
The latest figures suggest one in four of the Spanish workforce is now unemployed – that is 4.7 million people.
Amid a worsening recession, it is looking more likely Madrid will need an international bailout.
One jobseeker in Madrid said: "A bailout would be a loan that has to be repaid. It would be better if we didn't have to ask for it, but if there's no alternative, we have to."
A woman at the job centre added: "It's not good because the situation is critical, the crisis is huge. Spaniards, and others, need financial help. This is very, very bad."
As the jobs figures were released, there was a report that Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy had told a gathering of regional leaders of his party, that the government would not ask for a bailout this coming weekend, contrary to media reports.
At the same time, last week's stress tests of Spain's banks were criticised.
The ratings agency Moody's and economists at JP Morgan have calculated the independent audit greatly under-estimated how much the country's top lenders would need to cope with a economic downturn and the true amount may be twice as much.

The Time Out guide to shopping Sky Ferreira's newest music video
Sky Ferreira's "I Blame Myself" features lots of expensive clothes—but don't worry, we found the affordable versions
Thu Apr 17 2014
Sky Ferreira released a new video yesterday for the song "I Blame Myself." We watched it and fell in love with everything she's wearing, and were excited to find out all the clothes in the video are shoppable via online retailer SSENSE (which helped produce the video). But that excitement faded when we saw the prices for most of the merch. $3,225 for a jacket? Oh, brother. Looks like the days of Ferreira modeling Forever 21 clothes are long gone.
Even if you got a decent tax refund this week, we're guessing you still don't want to spend all of it on a $1,000 Saint Laurent blouse. That's why we scoured the Internet and found affordable versions of some of the "I Blame Myself" clothes. You can't blame us for finding you a better deal…
On Sky: Saint Laurent black & white striped crepe de chine blouse, $950
Affordable version: ROMWE striped asymmetric pocketed long-sleeved shirt, $26
On Sky: Alexander Wang black lambskin bloomer shorts, $995
Affordable version: Topshop Lola high-waist faux leather shorts, $60
On Sky: Saint Laurent black leather zipped biker skirt, $2,890
Affordable version: Topshop chunky zip-wrap skirt, $84
