In her last position, from mid-2012 she was VP of Sustaining Engineering, in charge of a global organization supporting all Schlumberger commercial products and technologies.
Jean-Georges Malcor, CEO, CGG, said: "Sophie has extensive experience in the Oil Services industry, a strong international profile and considerable knowledge of our business and its environment. The addition of Sophie to our team will help us to build the new GGR division and move into the high-end integrated geology & geophysics and reservoir characterization market.

Inside The Box Score: A Look Back at the 5 OT Thriller
Feb 10, 2013, 2:14 PM EDT
If you watched last night's epic battle between Notre Dame and Louisville, you're probably still trying to wrap your head around what happened at Purcell Pavilion.
This game was over. Notre Dame was about to do the unthinkable – lose at home for the third time this season.
But then, the Irish did the improbable, rallying from eight points down with under a minute to play, before defeating the #11 Cardinals in five overtimes, 104-101.
It was the fifth time in the last six meetings that the teams went to overtime, and the seventh in 11 matchups since the Cardinals joined the BIG EAST in 2005. It was also the longest regular season game in conference history.
Here's a closer look at some of the crazy facts and statistics from the big win:
- After Cam Biedscheid tied the game at 37 with a jumper with 11:30 to play, the Irish went more than ten minutes without a basket, until Pat Connaughton's layup with 1:09 remaining.
- Jerian Grant hadn't made a field goal all game, before hitting a tough three with 44.2 seconds remaining. He scored 12 points in those final 45 seconds, turning a seemingly insurmountable eight-point deficit into a tie game.
- Three of Notre Dame's five starters fouled out – Jack Cooley picked up his fifth with 6:54 left in the second half, Tom Knight with 51 seconds to play, and Jerian Grant headed to the bench with 1:57 remaining in the first overtime.
- Garrick Sherman didn't see the floor until Grant left the game, but ended up being one of the heroes of the night. Sherman finished with 17 points in 22 minutes, and scored the post-game interview with ESPN.
- He didn't even start the game, but Biedscheid was one of six players to log at least 50 minutes.
- Eric Atkins played 60 minutes, tying the Notre Dame record set by Chris Thomas in 2002.
- Six Irish players finished in double figures (Grant – 19, Sherman – 17, Connaughton – 16, Biedscheid – 14, Atkins – 14, Cooley – 11) and two logged double-doubles (Connaughton – 16 points, 14 rebounds; Cooley – 11 points, 11 rebounds).
- The teams committed 66 fouls and eight players fouled out.
- They combined for 97 free throws and 158 shots from the field.
- The game was tied 16 times and there were 26 lead changes.
- Both teams finished the game with 54 rebounds.
- Both teams attempted 25 three-pointers.
- There were 70 points scored off the bench – 39 for the Irish and 31 by the Cardinals.
- John Gaffney officiated 105 minutes of basketball on Saturday. He refereed the Marquette – DePaul game in Milwaukee, and then drove to South Bend after being called upon as a replacement, due to the winter storm affecting the northeast.

Music brings the world together. Except when it's Wagner
Dame Gwyneth Jones, the super-soprano who nailed Brunhilde has been asked to step down as president of the Wagner Society. Did she go quietly? What do you think?
One of the worst operatic encounters I ever had was at 30,000ft. I was flying into Bayreuth to interview the great Daniel Barenboim, who was scheduled to conduct Tristan und Isolde that afternoon at the famous Festspielhaus.
Beside me sat an initially pleasant Bavarian hausfrau in a sensible hat, who talked at length about how music can "work magic in creating joyful feelings", can bring enemies together in harmony, can bring a soothing balm to the pain of being human et cetera. I told her how pleased I was to be interviewing maestro Barenboim, though I knew him only as a piano player rather than a conductor.
She looked at me sharply. "And you are a student of Wagner, yes?"
"Well not really," I admitted. "Though I love the overture to Tannhauser. And the Ride of the Whatchamacall'ems. Valkyries."
"I see," she said. Frost began to form on her maternal bosom. You could hear an awful suspicion growing in her heart. "Und have you then a ticket for Tristan und Isolde this afternoon?"
"Actually yeah," I said, "As a matter of fact…"
"Whaaaat?" She practically whacked me with her sensible hat. "For 15 YEARS I have applied for a ticket, and each time zer answer comes back, no ticket but TRY AGAIN next year. So I try again because of my deep love for Wagner, and they say, Nein, Anna, tickets are like gold dust, but NOW I find zat YOU, an Englishman who knows NOZZING about Wagner, YOU are given a ticket to Bayreuth…"
I had to sit beside her smouldering fury for another half-hour. I mention this embarrassing episode to illustrate how fiery indeed are the passions music provokes – especially Wagner's. This year is the 200th anniversary of his birth, the Bayreuth concert season is starting on 25 July – and a row of Rheingoldian proportions is reaching its thunderous climax at the Wagner Society.
The society's been around for 60 years, founded by a Ring-loving army major called Harry Edmonds, to promote "knowledge, understanding and appreciation" of the great Dick W and his works. For the last 23 years, its presidential throne has been occupied by the regal figure of Dame Gwyneth Jones, the Welsh super-soprano who's sung in every major opera-house in the world and nailed the part of Brunhilde – breastplates, plaits, spear, the lot – at Bayreuth every year from 1975-80.
She's now 75 and, according to the Society's committee, is becoming increasingly "dictatorial". There have been disputes among the top brass about the cancellation of the society's Wagner Bursary Competition, to send young musos to the Bayreuth Festival, because it was deemed a "waste of money," and this week they sent a letter to its members declaring war: "The committee finds itself in fundamental disagreement with the president… over how the society should be run. We believe it is time for the president to stand down and we have suggested that she do so. She has not responded." The committee has called a special general meeting on 11 July, in which to boot her out.
Dame Gwynnie says, however, that she wasn't officially invited to it. She heard about the meeting from a friend. And how did she respond? Did she go quietly? Did she bow to committee pressure? Did she hell. She strapped on her metaphorical breastplate. She wrote emails to her army of friends, asking them to contact any Wagner Society subscription-payers they know, and tell them to show up at the SGM next month, ready for a fight. Oh, and she's talking with lawyers about suing the society's chair and treasurer for possible defamation. No-one mucks about with Brunhilde Jones.
Ah, the magic of music that creates joyful feelings (as my German friend on the plane explained to me) and brings a soothing balm to the pain of being human. How very true that is.
No words to excite like 'pop memorabilia'
A Lancashire company called Tracks is advertising for "Beatles and pop memorabilia", with the promise that "£60,000-plus paid for Beatles Signed Sgt Pepper LP, £2,000 for Beatles autographs. Any Rare Items Considered."
Clearly inspired by the high prices regularly spent at Bonham's on Jimmy Page's violin bow or Brian May's underpants, the company is bypassing the auction houses and soliciting British baby-boomers directly. Can you imagine the flurry of activity across the land, as fifty and sixtysomething chaps nip up to their attics to dig out their ancient LP collections in search of something floggable?
Of course there's not a chance in hell that they'll find a copy of Sgt Pepper festooned with signatures; but the phrases "pop memorabilia" and "rare items" are very expandable ones. Peter Gabriel once signed a Genesis album for me after a concert at Wimbledon Town Hall. That's got to be worth a hundred quid. I have the first Velvet Underground and Nico LP with the cover featuring a banana you could peel off (later versions dispensed with the applique) – shall we say 50 quid? And probably the only copy purchased in south London of Mick Farren's Vampires Stole My Lunch Money, guest-starring Wilko Johnson and Chrissie Hynde. What? Not "rare" enough for you?

Yankees send Rule 5 pick Jamie Hoffmann back to Dodgers … for now
Mar 22, 2010, 3:47 PM EDT
Back in December the Nationals selected Dodgers minor leaguer Jamie Hoffmann with the first pick in the Rule 5 draft and then sent him to the Yankees in a pre-arranged deal for Brian Bruney.
Hoffmann was thought to be a near-lock for a spot on New York's bench, but apparently the Yankees decided against keeping him on the 25-man roster all season (per the Rule 5 … well, rules) and sent him back to the Dodgers this afternoon.
Hoffmann had to clear waivers before becoming Los Angeles' property again, which means no other teams were willing to keep him in the majors all season. However, according to Mark Feinsand of the New York Daily News the Yankees may be trying to work out a second deal for Hoffmann outside of the Rule 5 parameters that would allow them to send him to Triple-A.
Feinsand notes "whispers in recent weeks about the Yankees sending either Chad Gaudin or Sergio Mitre to Los Angeles for Hoffmann." Not a bad deal for the Dodgers, who essentially gave up Hoffmann for nothing by failing to protect him with a 40-man roster spot just a few months ago. Meanwhile, it looks more and more likely that the Yankees' final bench spot will go to veteran Marcus Thames, who could end up paired with Brett Gardner as a platoon starter against left-handed pitching.

- YANKEES1996 - Mar 22, 2010 at 5:13 PM
I'm glad we sent him back, now don't bring him back. As a matter of fact can we send Marcus Thames to Dodgers too?
- Nasty Boy - Mar 22, 2010 at 5:31 PM
Its bad enough they lost Bruney for this bum, but now their thinking about bringing him back at the expense of Gaudin ,or Mitre, they must be on drugs.Someone needs to tell them pitching is hard to come by.If they are going to trade either Mitre or Gaudin, I'm sure they could get alot more for either of them than Hoffman. Hello Yankees , don't make stupid moves, especially involving pitching, especially for a nobody.
- jwb - Mar 22, 2010 at 5:59 PM
I was thinking just the opposite, Nasty Boy. The Dodgers have a glut of somewhat below average options for their #5 starter, why would they trade an outfield prospect for another one? Especially since Gaudin and Mitre are out of options and would have to clear waivers if they don't win the fifth starter role. They would likely be giving Hoffmann away for nothing.
- Big Harold - Mar 22, 2010 at 6:00 PM
"Its bad enough they lost Bruney …'
Bruney was gone the moment that he decided that it was a good idea to spray Hal Steinbrenner with champagne after the Yankees won the World Series. Mo would've gotten away with that but average bull pen guys who faltered down the stretch shouldn't be acting the fool. I was surprised that he wasn't released before the victory parade.
- Nasty Boy - Mar 22, 2010 at 7:12 PM
I understand your point, but my point especially in Mitre's case , I feel he will come around. Girardi had him in Florida and saw alot in him before his arm injury. I don't feel he's at a full 100% yet. Gaudin showed last year that he could pitch, of the two I like Mitre.In essence I feel they could get way more for either of those pitchers than Hoffman. As I stated earlier, I feel they hosed themselves in essence trading Bruney for this guy. I know they seem to have a glut of good relievers, but the old saying goes, "you never have enough pitching" starting and relieving. That's my take on it.
- BC - Mar 22, 2010 at 11:59 PM
Bruney throws realllly hard, but he's so far out of shape and made no commitment to be in shape that the Yanks dumped him. One thing if you're 290 lbs and CC Sabathia. Quite another if you're 290 lbs and an oft injured reliever who is 4th or 5th on the depth chart.
- jason - Apr 14, 2010 at 2:48 PM
Have any of you ever even SEEN Jaime play? He is an above average athlete, played shortstop in High School and was moved to the outfield by the Dodgers. He was their TOP outfield prospect and if they were smart they would just let Manny go and give Jaime his spot. This kid is a hitter, one that will go for power and average and has above average fielding skills. The Yankees know that he would be a GREAT asset for their club and that is why they should do all they can to keep him on their team. If he goes back to the Dodgers, they can save money (which they will need thanks to the divorce proceedings going on) and let Manny go. His stupid antics are not worth the money he is paid.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
A New Attitude For Mikhail Grigorenko
by Paul on 07/16/14 at 08:40 AM ET
Comments (0)
from Mike Harrington of the Buffalo News,
It seems crazy to think of this as a make-or-break season for Mikhail Grigorenko. After all, he's just 20 years old and has played only 43 NHL games. But he's coming up on the final year of his entry-level contract and decisions need to be made, both by Grigorenko and the Buffalo Sabres.
Large portions of Grigorenko's first two seasons have been wasted. Can he build his game this year in the AHL or, perhaps in Buffalo? Or is this the last year before he looks at some money and maybe the KHL in Russia? The first step to a change this year was an attitude adjustment.
"From past experiences, I kind of realized it was probably no one's fault but mine I didn't stay in the NHL," Grigorenko said prior to the team's development camp scrimmage Tuesday night before an announced crowd of 8,725 in First Niagara Center. "If I want to play in the best league in the world, it's just on me. No one's going to just let me play because I was drafted first round. I just need to go out there and be the best."

RESTON, VA -- (Marketwire) -- 12/18/12 -- The Healthier Hospitals Initiative (HHI) announced today that the New Hampshire Hospital Association has become a Supporting Organization of the Healthier Hospitals Initiative, a collaborative of leading health care institutions united to help speed the health care sector toward healthier staff, better patient recovery rates, and environmentally sustainable practices. Based on the success of the Institute for Health Improvement's 100,000 lives campaign, HHI was launched by twelve hospital systems -- Advocate Health Care, Bon Secours Health System, Catholic Health Initiatives, Dignity Health, Hospital Corporation of America (HCA), Inova Health System, Kaiser Permanente, MedStar Health, Partners HealthCare, Stanford University Medical Center, Tenet Health Systems and Vanguard Health Systems -- along with Practice Greenhealth, Health Care Without Harm and the Center for Health Design, in May 2010.
HHI is a coordinated sector-wide approach based on the premise that how we design, build and operate hospitals can improve patient outcomes and workplace safety, prevent illnesses, create environmental benefits, and save money.
"The dedication of the New Hampshire Hospital Association is evident in assuring that each of their patients receives the right care every time," said Gary Cohen, President of Health Care Without Harm and Founder of HHI. "Their commitment to collaborating to identify and share best practices makes them an ideal supporter of HHI, whose learning community is based on years of proven measures for improved public health and reduced environmental impact."
The leading hospital systems, Supporting Organizations and health care facilities work together to accelerate the widespread use of proven sustainability practices in six key "Challenge" areas:
- Engaged Leadership
- Healthier Food
- Leaner Energy
- Less Waste
- Safer Chemicals
- Smarter Purchasing
Success will be measured and tracked with aggregate data that can be sorted by state or hospital type -- data that will be of great use for demonstrating success. "HHI offers us an opportunity to transform the health care sector and use data to demonstrate the valuable contribution that environmental stewardship activities have on quality health care delivery and the bottom line," said NHHA President Steve Ahnen.
HHI Supporting Organizations support the goals of the Healthier Hospitals Initiative and seek opportunities to share information with organization members and associates. The green movement in health care is completely in concert with any organization's mission of improving the health and well-being of their community, and promoting effective stewardship of human and financial resources.
Learn more about the Healthier Hospitals Initiative at www.healthierhospitals.org.
About the Healthier Hospitals Initiative
The Healthier Hospitals Initiative (HHI) is a national campaign to implement a completely new approach to improving environmental health and sustainability in the health care sector. Eleven of the largest, most influential U.S. health systems, comprising over 475 hospitals with more than $20 billion in purchasing power, worked with Health Care Without Harm (HCWH), the Center for Health Design and Practice Greenhealth to create HHI as a guide for hospitals to improve sustainability in six key areas: engaged leadership, healthier food, leaner energy, less waste, safer chemicals, and smarter purchasing. Sponsoring health systems include Advocate Health Care, Bon Secours Health System, Catholic Health Initiatives, Dignity Health (formerly Catholic Healthcare West), Hospital Corporation of America, Inova Health System, Kaiser Permanente, MedStar Health, Partners HealthCare, Stanford University Medical Center, Tenet Health Systems and Vanguard Health Systems. More information is available at www.healthierhospitals.org.
About the NHHA
Hospitals have been collaborating through the New Hampshire Hospital Association since 1934. The association's mission is to provide leadership through advocacy, education and information in support of its member hospitals and health care delivery systems in delivering high quality health care to the patients and communities they serve.

Expert: Armenian soldiers are major restraining factor for Azerbaijan
April 28, 2012 - 20:55 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - An Armenian political analyst is confident that Armenian soldiers are the main restraining factor for Azerbaijan.
Seeing no tactical or military sense in attacking a serviceman's car in Armenia's Tavush province, Narek Galstyan named demoralization of the Armenian army as the key goal Azerbaijan pursued, with the opposite having happened.
According to the expert, Azerbaijan's President Ilham Aliyev once again made an attempt to mobilize the country's political forces to reinforce the "enemy image" and strengthen his regime.
On April 27, 4:15 am local time VAZ 2107 car belonging to an Armenian serviceman was shelled on the road to the village of Aygepar in Tavush province of Armenia. As a result, the driver and two other servicemen were wounded.
Despite the measures taken, the two servicemen died on the way to military hospital of Berd town, with another hospitalized.
A criminal case has been instigated under Article 104 of RA Criminal Code. Investigation is under way.
On April 25, ceasefire violation by Azerbaijani armed forces was registered in the north-eastern region of the contact line between Nagorno Karabakh and Azerbaijan.
The Azerbaijani side opened fire from various caliber weapons towards the Armenian positions in village of Doveg, Armenia's Tavush province.
The shelling left the local kindergarten and a GAZ-53 truck damaged. The children and staff were evacuated for security purposes. As a result of retaliatory measures by the Armenian armed forces, the Azerbaijani side was forced to stop the fire.
Top stories
Seyran Ohanyan briefed Ambassador Andrzej Kasprzyk on the ceasefire violations along the Nagorno Karabakh line of contact.
The head of the Armenian delegation to the OSCE PA handed the Pan-Armenian Declaration to the OSCE PA President.
"I repeatedly stated that we don't have unlimited time for ratification of protocols. I regret that the message was left unheard," Sargsyan said.
Also, Abrahamyan said that a new ministry will be set up to deal with issues related to int'l economic integration and reforms.

This is a split board - You can return to the Split List for other boards.
The biggest problem with the Seiki TVs as monitors is that they are limited to 30hz at the 4k resolution. The Qnix will probably have a higher quality panel as well with better color accuracy and viewing angles and such.For me personally, the 30hz kills the deal for me. I'll wait until they make a version with a Displayport or an HDMI 2.0 port. It is very tempting though. The 39" has a higher pixel density than even the 1440p monitors.
Why 2x 144p? Why not 3x 1440p?

Keeping Starters is Key for the Indiana Pacers
Last season, the Indiana Pacers shocked much of the NBA with their best effort in nearly a decade. The Pacers (42-24) ended up with the fifth-best record in the NBA, and went to the post-season as the third seed in the Eastern Conference Playoffs. Indiana made these strides with a first-time coach and no big name superstars on their roster. Playing true team basketball, the Indiana Pacers laid the foundation for the future while still flying under the radar.
The most important part of keeping this young team moving forward, is keeping the nucleus together. The organization has done everything possible to bring back the same starting lineup that helped the Pacers reach the second round of the playoffs last season. All five starters from the end of last season will return to play for the Pacers in the 2012-13 season.
The first (and most major) item to be dealt with was the re-signing of All-Star center, . As well as locking up their big man in the middle, the Pacers re-signed point guard (and Indianapolis native) George Hill to the roster. Indiana has many players that can serve well at several positions, but keeping a solid starting line-up will prove to pay off in the long run, now that this team will have a full practice schedule and a full season to work with one another.
This off-season will prove to be the first time that this team will be able to work full-time with head coach Frank Vogel and his staff. Hibbert, Hill, Danny Granger, David West, and Paul George will have a leg-up on many teams in the NBA next season, with both talent and cohesion.

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- The biggest name among the Green Bay Packers' cuts so far clearly was quarterback Vince Young, who was released on Saturday morning.
But they also have cut a couple of players who saw significant playing time last season in running back Alex Green and tight end D.J. Williams.
Green was their leading rusher last season with 464 yards, and Williams played in 14 of 18 games last season (including playoffs).
With a few hours left before teams have to trim their rosters to 53 players, here's the latest list of the players who have been released.
Note: This list is a compilation of our own reporting here at ESPN plus reports from the Green Bay Press-Gazette, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Packer Report, ESPNMilwaukee.com and players with verified Twitter accounts. With 18 cuts already confirmed, the Packers will have to make four more roster moves to reach the 53-man limit.

On Effective Altruism
How can we do the most good? Peter Singer, often described as the world's most influential living philosopher, presents a challenging new movement in the search for an ethical life. Effective altruism requires a rigorously unsentimental view of charitable giving, urging that a substantial proportion of our money or time should be donated to the organisations that will do the most good with those resources, rather than to those that tug the heartstrings. Chaired by Eric Crampton.

Crimes of Passion
Sarah Waters' hugely inventive novels usually have lesbian relationships at their heart, and are always set in the past, when remaining true to oneself came at great personal risk. Her latest book, The Paying Guests, is no exception. It chronicles the awakening of a passion in 1920s London that has terrible consequences, and asks: how far would we go for a love that is forbidden by society but nonetheless achingly real? Chaired by Carole Beu.

Nashville, Tn. - The Hermitage Hotel, which was Nashville's first million-dollar hotel when it opened in 1910, reopens today - Valentine's Day - after a $17 million, 10-month restoration project.
The goal is to become Tennessee's first AAA Five Diamond and Mobil Five-Star hotel, and one of the world's finest small luxury hotels.
"The reopening at long last restores grand luxury to this historic hotel, making it a world-class destination point for visitors and residents alike," said Nashville Mayor Bill Purcell, who held his wedding reception at The Hermitage Hotel.
The hotel, which will hold its invitation-only grand opening celebration on the evening of February 25, is on the National Register of Historic Places and is the only remaining commercial Beaux Arts structure in Tennessee. Located in downtown Nashville, directly opposite the State Capitol, it has hosted six presidents, housed the pro- and anti-suffrage forces in the 1920s, and held a place in the hearts of city residents since it was commissioned by 250 of them in 1908.
As well as 24-hour room and concierge service, the hotel now offers a number of superior services unique to the Nashville area. They include: personalized storage trunks for frequent guests, DVD players and complimentary high-speed internet access in every room, afternoon tea in the lobby and butler service upon request.
"The Hermitage will be the hotel of choice for those who simply want the best," says Prem Devadas, the hotel's managing partner. "Guests will encounter a level of service and quality of materials never before seen in Tennessee and the surrounding region."
The hotel's owner, Historic Hotels Nashville, LLC, has already successfully renovated and transformed The Jefferson Hotel in Richmond, VA. It elevated that hotel, built in 1895, from a AAA Three Diamond property into one of the 23 hotels that carry both the AAA Five Diamond and Mobil Five-Star ratings. In 2001, Forbes FYI designated The Jefferson as the "Best Hotel in America." In March 2004, The Hermitage's other sister property - Kiawah Island Golf Resort near Charleston, SC., will open The Sanctuary at Kiawah Island, an ultra-luxury oceanfront hotel and spa, at a cost of $125 million.
The average size of a guestroom is now 475 square feet - large even for a luxury hotel. The interior walls on the guest floors were removed allowing the creation of completely new rooms. This was essential, says Devadas, for the hotel to fulfill its mission of offering a true luxury experience.
Prior to the renovation, the hotel had been an all-suite property. Now, there are 112 oversized guestrooms, a 2,000-square-foot presidential suite, three executive suites and seven junior suites. Each room is decorated with fine furnishings and fabrics. Only linens with fine thread counts and down-filled duvets have been used, while every bathroom includes marble soaking tubs, double vanities, a separate shower and enclosed water closet. In addition, each suite has a Jacuzzi. Room rates will begin at $210 per night and rise to $1,500 per night for the presidential suite.
The façade of the hotel, including the original terra cotta, has been cleaned and restored, while a climate-controlled porte-cochere was added to reflect the design of a historic hotel. Inside the doors, a foyer and gift shop have been created, while local artisans, specializing in historic paint restoration, have repainted every feature in the ceiling of the hotel's famous lobby. The renowned glass ceiling has also been carefully restored. The Grand Ballroom's paneled walls, made from Circassian walnut imported from Russia, have been cleaned and restored to their original luster. A Capitol view fitness room has also been added on the mezzanine level, along with marble locker rooms and massage treatment rooms.
Below the lobby, the hotel's infamous art deco men's room has been upgraded, but the green and black glass décor has been retained. The renowned Capitol Grille restaurant has also undergone a complete facelift, including new furniture, chandeliers and a grand new entrance. The restaurant, which was home to the Francis Craig Orchestra and a national radio show for several years, also has a new menu and executive chef, Sean Brock - who moved from Lemaire, The Jefferson Hotel's AAA Five Diamond restaurant.
The new menu features creative interpretations of southern cuisine with an emphasis on the freshest and best available local products. It also includes a la carte components, with regionally and historically matched side dishes.
The Hermitage Hotel is a member of both Preferred Hotels & Resorts Worldwide and Historic Hotels of America. For more information or reservations, call 1-888-888-9414 or visit online at:http://www.thehermitagehotel.com.
