After a plane journey around the world, the Galet Traveller now reveals its attributes in a brand-new film. Each detail is shown in minute and vibrant detail. The gaze sweeps across the famous pebble-shaped solid gold case and the generous winding crown, before marvelling at the dial effects, the gold hands and the slender hour-markers complemented by two bevelled apertures displaying the reference time and date. A look through the back then reveals the self-winding LF 230.01 movement from the line of Micro-Rotor with natural escapement movements, which incorporates the dual-time adjustment mechanism as well as the date. One also notes that the latter is not an additional module, but instead a fully integrated complication that required no less than two years of development and is once again graced with breathtakingly beautiful finishing…
Laurent Ferrier introduces an exceptional limited series in order to highlight the latest developments of the Tourbillon Double Spiral calibre. Only 18 of these Galet Classic steel watches will emerge from the workshops.
Among the recent technical developments, Laurent Ferrier wished to optimise the efficiency of its initial calibre. The aim was to make the performance of the regulating organ even more reliable by achieving complete mastery of the escapement. Thanks to the combination of the famous tourbillon double-hairspring mechanism along with manual adjustment of this new escapement, the chronometer confirms its excellent rating regularity.
This limited edition features a gold dial adorned by hand with a sunburst guilloché motif. Delicate hour-markers punctuate the décor and accentuate the depth effect. The small seconds at 6 o'clock is slightly recessed. The case-back provides an admirable view of the extremely meticulous movement finishing: the ratchet pawl and its smooth round-polished blade, the bridges embellished with Côtes de Genève, the circular-grained mainplate, the clean-cut edges and the hand-chamfered and polished interior angles. The art of watchmaking at its purest and finest.

"I have gradually been able to turn the salt chlorinator down from a 100% setting to 40 % and reduce the filtering time by 2 hours per day, thus saving on power and wear & tear on equipment."
"It works! While I still get some iron residue I can clean it off with ease, it's amazing! I am definitely happy with the results and would recommend anyone with the same problem to give it a try!"
"I could go on about lots of small benefits but the bottom line is that now I have time to enjoy our pool instead of all the time & money spent trying to keep it looking good."
"The build-up has not returned in over 4 years and before we were replacing elements in the washing machine twice a year and elements in the hot water unit 4 times a year."
"First of all, the taste is wonderful. It makes me want to drink water. The coffee is the best I've ever tasted!"
(Client added a SWC unit before their water softener) "We use about 2/3 less softening salt, and I've noticed I use about half of the clothes detergent than I used to, same with the dish washing detergent. It's easier to get the shampoo rinsed out of my hair, and my skin feels great."
"Our dog loves the water, and drinks much more than he used to. His coat is shinier and he's been very healthy too!"
"We haven't seen the refrigeration mechanic in over 9 months. This is a miracle as we were seeing him every week because the scale build up would trip the power and he would have to come clean it all out."
"There are no longer any watermarks on the taps and I know you won't appreciate this, I need less shampoo and my hair is really much softer. I've even bought a new kettle, gone are the days of descaling!!"
"After seeing how good the Softerwater Conditioner was at work I was so impressed I installed the small unit (RVSoft) into our motor home, this led to a greater life span of the anodes in the water heater and stainless water tanks."

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Types include:
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of developing a microbiome probe of depression and to evaluate the microbiome change in a preliminary analysis of treatment response (n=20) vs. non response (n=20) to the antidepressant citalopram. This study is a 12 week open trial that will enroll approximately 80 participants (anticipated 40 study completers with paired biomarker data) with an episode of major depression and 40 age- and sex-matched healthy controls.

Chronic dizziness and recurrent vertigo are frequent complaints in primary and specialty medical care settings. Two common causes of these symptoms are vestibular migraine (VM) and chronic subjective dizziness (CSD), which may be seen in up to 25% of patients examined in tertiary neurotology centers. However, VM and CSD are relatively new diagnoses that have not yet been validated. Furthermore, recent research found that they co-exist 30% of the time with overlap in several features. From a clinical standpoint, this makes it difficult to diagnose and treat them well. From a research standpoint, it confounds subject selection for mechanistic investigations.
The primary goal of this study to dissect VM and CSD in order to identify the key features and clarify the diagnostic criteria of each condition. Fifty patients diagnosed with coexisting VM-CSD will be treated with either verapamil or sertraline. Based on clinical and research experience to date, verapamil is thought to have greater effect on migraine-related symptoms, whereas sertraline is thought to have greater effect on CSD-related symptoms. It is hypothesized that a differential treatment response to these two pharmacologic probes will help to tease apart the unique clinical features of VM and CSD and identify risk factors that are shared or separate between the two conditions. The different mechanisms of action of the two study medications may also shed light on the physiologic underpinnings of VM and CSD.
This project will be a 14-week, prospective, randomized, double-blind, parallel group, pharmacologic dissection trial. A 12-week treatment period will follow 2 weeks of baseline observation. Patients will chart daily headache and vestibular symptoms. VM and CSD symptoms and potential confounds such as anxiety and depression will be measured at two week intervals. Data will be analyzed for differential and shared treatment effects that align with or oppose current concepts of VM and CSD.
Closed for enrollment
Rochester, Minn.
During the early phases (phases 1 and 2), researchers assess safety, side effects, optimal dosages and risks/benefits. In the later phase (phase 3), researchers study whether the treatment works better than the current standard therapy. They also compare the safety of the new treatment with that of current treatments. Phase 3 trials include large numbers of people to make sure that the result is valid. There are also less common very early (phase 0) and later (phase 4) phases. Phase 0 trials are small trials that help researchers decide if a new agent should be tested in a phase 1 trial. Phase 4 trials look at long-term safety and effectiveness, after a new treatment has been approved and is on the market.
Study hypothesis: Do serial low-dose ketamine infusions, followed by weekly maintenance infusions, increase the length of time depressive symptoms stay in remission and the length of time associated suicide risk is improved?
Brief Summary: This open label clinical trial is intended to further clarify initial response to low-dose ketamine infusion with repeated dosing and maintenance treatment model. Primary outcomes will be reduction in depression severity and reduction of suicide risk along with duration of response.
This study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of deep brain stimulation in treating people with severe and otherwise treatment-resistant obsessive-compulsive disorder.

This study will compare glutamate and other neurometabolites measured by proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS) in bipolar I and II patients currently depressed with age-matched healthy controls. The study will also compare 1H-MRS of bipolar I and II patients before and after taking a 12-week course of lamotrigine. This study requires 8 visits over a 12 week period. These visits need to occur at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN.
The overall goal of this investigator-initiated trial is to evaluate the treatment outcome of depression utilizing platform algorithm products that can allow rapid identification of pharmacokinetic (PK) and/or pharmacodynamic (PD) genomic variation. This new technology may have the potential to optimize treatment selection by improving response, minimizing unfavorable adverse events / side effects and increasing treatment adherence.
First, can exposure therapy for childhood anxiety begin earlier in the course of treatment than current treatment manuals suggest?
Second, is treating childhood anxiety with exposure therapy more effective and efficient than treating childhood anxiety with relaxation training + cognitive restructuring?
The purpose of this study is to learn if measures of brain chemicals from a brain scan called Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Spectroscopy (MRI/MRS) and brain activity (known as cortical excitability and inhibition) collected by Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) are different in adolescents with depression who are in different stages of treatment. Researchers are conducting this study to learn more about how the brain works in adolescents with depression and without depression (healthy controls). This is important because it may identify a biological marker (a measure of how bad an illness is) for depression that could one day be used to identify depressed adolescents who would benefit from certain treatments (medications for example) or to monitor how well treatments are working.
Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Jacksonville, Fla., Rochester, Minn.
This study will compare the effectiveness of different combinations of 5 types of behavioral interventions across patient-centered outcomes. It will also evaluate which outcomes (e.g. quality of life, cognition, function, mood) matter most to people at risk for dementia and their care partners. The results of this study have the potential to direct patients, families, and health care providers as to which combinations of behavioral interventions provide the greatest potential impact on which dementia prevention outcomes. Greater use of behavioral strategies that are targeted to the outcomes of most important to the patient will likely improve patient compliance and treatment adherence. This, in turn, can lessen the need for medication, health care, and long term care utilization.
This study defines cancer caregivers as unpaid individuals who provide physical, practical, and/or emotional care and support to the cancer patient in the home setting. They may participate in this study if care recipients and the caregiver are both adults (18 years or older), with the patient having been diagnosed with cancer.The 8 intervention sessions will target the five domains of Quality Of Life (emotional, physical, social, cognitive, and spiritual well-being), be provided in group settings, and be delivered in two 45-minute sessions each week over a 4-week period.

Mum's the word in our top picture
Posted: March 29, 2014|
THIS heart-warming picture of single mum Noelleen McAuley giving a piggy-back to her teenage daughter Ayana has won a Nottingham Post competition.
We asked people to send us their "selfies" – self portraits – with their mums ahead of Mothering Sunday tomorrow.
Dozens of readers sent in their entries via email and Twitter, but it was this picture, sent in by Anaya and her mother, of Sneinton, that stood out.
Ms McAuley scooped the prize of a £50 voucher for the Victoria Centre.
Related content
In her submission, Ayana, a 13-year-old pupil at Nottingham Academy, wrote: "I really hope my mum wins a Mother's Day prize as she always works so hard to do the best for me.
"I know it's tough for her being a single parent with no help or support from anyone, but she keeps on going, no matter what."
Ms McAuley, 48, said: "Winning has really brightened my day.
"It was the anniversary of my father's death on Tuesday.
"It's hard being on your own as a parent and you have your ups and downs, although Ayana and I have always been very close – so much so that we often know what the other is thinking."
When asked how she will spend the voucher, Ms McAuley said: "I so rarely get the chance to go into town and have a little 'me' time. I think I will buy the Estee Lauder Beautiful perfume, as well as something for Ayana.
"Without her I wouldn't be a mother and I really do feel blessed."
Susan Wheatcroft, newspaper sales manager at the Post, said: "We chose this great picture because it there is obviously a lot of warmth between mum and daughter.
"They look to be a close family unit."

Isoprene is a volatile 5-carbon hydrocarbon derived from the chloroplastic methylerythritol 2-C-methyl-d-erythritol 4-phosphate isoprenoid pathway. In plants, isoprene emission is controlled by the enzyme isoprene synthase; however, there is still relatively little known about the genetics and regulation of this enzyme. Isoprene synthase gene structure was analysed in three poplar species. It was found that genes encoding stromal isoprene synthase exist as a small gene family, the members of which encode virtually identical proteins and are differentially regulated. Accumulation of isoprene synthase protein is developmentally regulated, but does not differ between sun and shade leaves and does not increase when heat stress is applied. Our data suggest that, in mature leaves, isoprene emission rates are primarily determined by substrate (dimethylallyl diphosphate, DMADP) availability. In immature leaves, where isoprene synthase levels are variable, emission levels are also influenced by the amount of isoprene synthase protein. No thylakoid isoforms could be identified in Populus alba or in Salix babylonica. Together, these data show that control of isoprene emission at the genetic level is far more complicated than previously assumed.

Strawberry Hazelnut Torte
- Active Time 25m
- Total Time 2h 10m
Serves 8
While the hazelnut crust is cooking, make the strawberry, whipped cream and mascarpone filling and let it firm up in the refrigerator. When the crust is completely cool and the filling is chilled, you can assemble the torte and refrigerate it for a couple of hours before serving.
- For the Crust:
- About 3/4 cup whole hazelnuts (unskinned)
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 12 tablespoons cold butter, cut in pieces
- 2 egg yolks
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- For the Filling:
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 pint strawberries, rinsed if necessary, hulled, pureed and strained
- (to yield 1 cup), then chilled
- 1 cup well-chilled heavy cream
- 1/2 cup mascarpone
Very small or quartered strawberries, rinsed and hulled
Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Pulse the hazelnuts in
a food processor until finely chopped. Add the sugar and flour and pulse to combine. Add the butter pieces and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the egg yolks and vanilla extract and process until the dough just comes together.
Lightly flour your fingertips and press the dough into a 9-inch springform pan. Gently make a large depression in the center of the dough to create about a 1/2-inch rim all the way around the edge of the crust. Bake the crust until puffed, lightly browned, and a pick comes out with just a few crumbs, 45 to 50 minutes. Cool completely on a rack. Slide a knife around the edges of the pan before removing the sides of the pan. Slide a spatula under the crust to loosen it, and then remove the crust from the bottom of the pan.
Stir the sugar into the strawberry puree and return the mixture to the refrigerator. Whip the cream until it forms firm peaks. In a separate bowl, whisk 1/4 of the whipped cream into the mascarpone and then fold in the remaining whipped cream. Gently fold in the chilled puree. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours. The filling will firm up as it chills.
TO ASSEMBLE: Gently spoon the chilled filling into the torte shell. Don't level the filling; leave it looking free-form and scatter the small or quartered strawberries across the top. Cut into wedges and serve.

On Oct. 8, seven members of the Skaneateles Fire Department traveled to the Empire State Plaza in Albany to participate in the annual New York State Fallen Firefighters Memorial ceremony. This year, Skaneateles Firefighter George W. Dove's name was added to the memorial. Firefighter Dove died in the line of duty on July 12, 1965 while extinguishing a brush fire in Lakeview Cemetery. While purging the files of the former village hall, Village Historian Jorge Batlle, who is also a member of the SFD and its historian, located a manila folder inscribed with "George Dove LOD" which caught his attention. Upon further inspection, historian Batlle realized that he had located all of paperwork related to the Line of Duty Death of Firefighter Dove. Shortly thereafter, Historian Batlle informed the members of the SFD of this unfortunate circumstance upon which further inquiry was launched. After a thorough review of all of the supporting documentation, it became apparent that Firefighter Dove's untimely death had been overlooked and had not been properly memorialized at the local or state level. Efforts were launched to provide Firefighter Dove with the proper recognition that he so rightly deserved. On May 16, 2013, Firefighter Dove's name was added to the Onondaga County's Palladium Monument in downtown Syracuse honoring the fallen Sheriffs and Firefighters of Onondaga County followed by the recent inclusion of his name in the "Roll of Honor" at the New York State Fallen Firefighters Memorial in Albany.
It should also be noted, that Borodino Firefighter Gerard Marcheterre's name was inscribed on the New York State Fallen Firefighters Memorial "Roll of Honor" during the Oct. 8 ceremony as well. Firefighter Marcheterre, a 12-year veteran of the Borodino Fire Department, died on March 6, 2010 while responding with other Borodino firefighters to a call in Spafford. With the inclusion of Borodino Firefighter Marcheterre and Skaneateles Firefighter Dove's names onto the memorial, their dedication and service will never be forgotten.

Just got the Lansinoh HPA Lanolin tube delivered from drugstore.com.

I'm completely amazed. I'm going to get more tubes of this stuff so I have it all over the house, in my purse, and to recommend & give to friends. I'm in love with it!!

This review is for the Lansinoh lanolin cream only. I found this product in the baby stuff aisle because it is used for nipple care. While my nips are just fine my lips aren't. This product is about as safe and non irritating as you can get especially since babies come in contact with it. I take a medication that I will be on for life. One of the top side effects is dry and cracking lips. This is THE ONLY product that works for me. I've tried so many things for my lips with no lasting results. Lansinoh is a godsend for me. I use it every night and it is still on my lips in the morning. The cracks and dryness are gone. During the day I use it too only a smaller amount. I've tried another brand that is more ointment like because it was less expensive. It just wasn't the same. Lansinoh is more creamy but has incredible staying power. I hope it works for some of you like it does for me.

I use this as a night treatment on my lips. There is probably enough product for five lifetimes. It works very well for this purpose. I don't think I could ever shell out the money for Dr lipp after using this (dr lipp is 100% lanolin).

I have constant peeling lips from a Carmex addiction. I started using Carmex years ago, it would make my lips peel, once they peeled it was painful and nothing would heal it other than more Carmex. And so I was in this endless cycle of cracked dry peeling lips. The skin would always grow back very thick and hard and peel right off. Gross I know.
I tried every lip balm on the market, from cheap drugstore ones, healing ones like La Roche Posay ceralips, to high end $$ balms. I even tried putting on things like Polysporin and Neosporin to try to heal them. Nothing could ween me off of Carmex, they would all help for a few days and my lips would always end up so dry that the only solution was Carmex.
I've been using this for a little while now and it's a miracle. The skin on my lips are growing back normal, soft and not peeling off. After years and years I'm so happy that this finally worked. It's so cheap and much more effective than other lip products that contain lanolin.
I can't believe they're not marketing this as a lip product because they would make a fortune and help so many people out.

I purchased pure Lansinoh (not an off brand) to use as a moisturizer for my fingertips and cuticles, and it is simply amazing. It is refined and has absolutely no smell.
I use a tiny pea-size amount, let it warm up between my fingers, and massage it in morning and night. Within two days, my cuticles were much more moisturized and the dry flaky skin around the edges of my nails was softened up and smooth.
The day I bought it, I burned the tip of my finger just below my nail on a hot cookie sheet. The spot turned red, and it HURT~I thought for sure it would blister. I started using the Lansinoh that night and some did get on the spot, although I didn't intentionally put it there. A day and a half later, the spot was completely gone. I don't honestly know for sure that the Lansinoh healed it, but it's definitely possible.
The only drawback is that the stuff is really greasy, but you can limit the greasiness by using only a tiny amount, and applying it exactly where you need it.
Miracle in a tube!

This review is for the Koru Naturals tub of lanolin that I purchased off Amazon.
I've been intrigued by lanolin ever since I noticed that all the lip balm formulas I love have this ingredient in them. Once I heard about the Dr. Lipp original nipple balm for lips which is 100% lanolin I've been wanting to try it but thought it was overpriced considering it was a single ingredient. The generic version is much cheaper and has lived up to all of my hopes and dreams.
It's a bit thick and waxy upon application but warms up quickly after it gets on lips. I apply this every night and my lips look and feel normal. I don't need to constantly reapply lip balm any longer (I still do a couple times a day for SPF though). The only caveat is that the generic version that I have does have a scent to it. I don't mind the scent because I don't use it during the day anyway (no SPF). I've heard that the ones marketed specifically for lip-use (i.e. Dr. Lipp, Lanolips, etc.) have less offensive fragrances so the smell isn't a deal breaker.
I had no idea my lips could be this soft and nice, and I feel like this is the only thing that moisturizes my lips instead of just coating them in product. I have already converted someone to lanolin and she feels similarly.
I highly recommend giving this a shot, especially if you have had success with lip balms that contain lanolin before.

My lips are exposed to the sun and wind often as I am an active motorcycle enthusiast, even with a full face helmet and being in AZ.
This year 2014 my lips were sunburned badly and I suffered for almost 2 weeks solid with dry, swelled, 2 painful areas on my lower lip and 1 on my upper lip. It was just horribly painful and even affected my "sense of taste" as even an allergic reaction.
I tried many OTC products to include even ordering on the internet out of sheer dispair and I was ready to actually make an appt with the doctor. Horrid!
I tried: Stopping using my toothpaste and changed it (that didn't do anything.) Tried Neosporin Lip Health (slathered heavy on @ night) it brought some comfort but did not heal, tried Corti Balm (stung my lips and made them extremely sensitive), tried Blistex (made my lips even more swollen and stung), tried Carmex (same reaction as the Blistex), tried Petroleum Vaseline (did no heal), tried opening up a Vit E capsule (offered some relief temporarily for maybe an hour), tried Olive Oil & Coconut Oil (same as the Vit E, only temporary and lasted only up to 30 mins if that!), then I read the information about using Lansinoh (HPA Lanolin). Went to the local Walmart, bought it, put it on while still parked in the car and almost immeadiately felt a relief, amazing! I used it (only takes a tiny dab) after I was able to eat again and used it prior to going to bed. Within 2 days of regular use, my lips regained a nice pinkish tone, not overly sensitive, swelling gone, not dry and taste returned.
It has now been a month and I still use just a tiny dab during the day and prior to going to bed and my lips are healed, soft, good color, not sensitive to touch. Does not interfer with my wearing a quality lip balm called Palladio Herbal Tinted Lip Balm, apply the Lansinoh first. Works for me. This past lip experience was HORRID!

2 STARS. Let me explain.
My lips had been chapped for over a year and nothing seemed to work. They got so bad I bought this after trying lots of product including By Terry's Baume de Rose. I actually opened it at the store before buying (sometimes I do this hah), and they were almost fully healed by the time I got home. Miracle right?...not quite.
So I became really obsessed with this stuff the week following thinking it was a miracle moisturizer. I applied it all over my face and mixed into my body creams. I love moisture (also this didn't break me out). Anyway, I noticed my face and everywhere I had applied it were at first instantly soft and supple. However, I noticed my makeup didn't apply nice and fresh with this since my skin actually looked dryish and less dense. Later on my face was showing signs of dryness. And most apparent (after days of slathering on constantly trying to recapture the initial effect) was that my lips had formed a hard outer layer that was sooo dry and tight, it was actually painful. I was peeling them like crazy and they were 100xs worse than before. It is possible I am allergic to this, but I doubt it because I tried this out as a hair mask and it also DRIED out my hair. If I put other Occlusives like Raw Shea etc.. into my hair as a mask I get great results...so I really think there is something wrong with the Lanolin.
Don't despair. my lips are satin and dewy now, and no longer dependent on ANY product!! I never thought I'd get to say that again. What is working? To my surprise it was actually Vaseline that healed my lips. I use the Vaseline brand lip treatment with Cocoa Butter and it gave instant relief but dewy perfect lips came about 3 days after. My lips are now perfect thanks to the cheapest thing...crazy!! Never thought the cheapest thing was the best all along. If you want perfect lips, try the Vaseline (first pick) or the ELF Lip Exfoliator (works like a very expensive prep, my second choice).
This stuff may work if you are only using it minimally, in small amount and not very often. OR possibly if you add an occlusive over it to try to lock in the moisture...Palmers stick would also work. (I also have to say I started getting nauseated by the fact I was putting sheep sebum all over my mouth. I was using a lot of this though, but I became sickened and tried to ignore it while I thought it was "hydrating" me.)
I still gave this product 2 stars because the manufacturers didn't intend this for lip balm! Infact I could imagine it working great as a breast-feeding cream, perhaps it's only intended for that maybe something with the moisture coming from the baby's mouth. I also appreciate that they haven't released this as a lip balm bc they probably are a good ethical company that knows their stuff and doesn't want to mislead consumers that pure lanolin would work for chapped lips.

Cannot configure Storage with iSCSI SAN
I am trying to configure storage, using an HP 4TB SAN connected to the backup server via iSCSI. It was working fine before the SAN failed and we had to replace its RAID controller, using the same exact configuration as before. It would not recognize automatically in BE, so I deleted it to start fresh.
The Storage wizard continues to run without completing. It shows a "Status: Queued" but also says "Active". I let it go for the entire weekend before cancelling it. The iSCSI volume is mounted properly to the server and the wizard recognizes it as a valid volume before it starts the configuration job. I can add files to the mounted volume through Windows Explorer, so I know the volume is ok. I tried cancelling the job and manually configuring the storage, but it doesn't allow me to. Have rebooted the SAN, backup server, and BE services. Storage status on the homepage still says "no storage configured" and I cannot do anything more to get around the Wizard to configure it manually. No errors in the Windows Event Logs. Please help! Thanks!

" Genre: Drama / Suitable for 12 years and over / DVD released 2008-08-25 at Optimum Home Releasing / Features of the DVD: PAL "
* Prices may differ from that shown
(film only review)
Christmas 1183. King Henry II resides at his château in Chinon, France, together with his three sons, Richard, Geoffrey and John. He's invited; or rather summoned, his wife, Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine for the holidays. He's exiled her because of her constant interference in his affairs, she's lived locked in the Salisbury Tower at Windsor Castle for ten years already. Later King Philipp II of France arrives, son of Eleanor's ex-husband, Louis II of France, and half-brother to Alais, Henry's current mistress. Philip has given her to Henry's successor, whoever that will be, and demands either a wedding asap or the return of the dowry.
King Henry hasn't become sentimental and wants the family around him for the festive season. The reason for the gathering is that he's 50 years old, he feels ancient. "Good God...I'm the oldest man I know." He wants to decide which son will be his successor and settle his affairs once and for all. For this he needs the Queen's consent. But that's the snag. She doesn't give her consent to his plans. She's always favoured Richard, the oldest of the three sons (they had eight children together, one son died, the three daughters must have been married off, they're never mentioned), whereas Henry wants John to succeed him. None of the parents gives Geoffrey a thought. He can only become chancellor to the brother who'll be King.
Hewing and stabbing ensue, verbally and literally. "What should we hang - the holly or each other?" Each of the main protagonists fights for themselves, in order to reach their aims they plot, cheat and lie but also form alliances. Once, in a rare moment of calm, the King and the Queen are walking arm in arm along a corridor and she says, "You know what, I've never really liked our children." The flame of their former love hasn't been completely extinguished in the Queen and the King confesses to feeling a deep affection for her. The last scene of the film is one of the best a film has ever had, you could never imagine it!
You may argue that books or films based on historical events can only be thrilling if you know nothing about history and thus follow the occurrences as if the endings were open. That isn't true, though. The way a story is told or enacted by actors and actresses can create tension nevertheless. Even for a historian who's an expert in the High Middle Ages and knows the succession of the English kings forwards and backwards this well made piece of fiction has its allure. In 1966 the American James Goldwin wrote a play for a stage on Broadway. The characters and the general outline are historically correct, the Christmas come-together, however, didn't take place. Later he adapted the script from his play and in 1968 the film The Lion in Winter was released starring:
Peter O'Toole as King Henry II
Katherine Hepburn as Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine
Anthony Hopkins as Prince Richard (his film debut)
John Castle as Prince Geoffrey
Nigel Terry as Prince John
Timothy Dalton as King Philip II of France (his film debut)
Jane Marrow as Alais, as Philips's half-sister and the King's current mistress
It was the second time I watched this film, the first time was at the pictures when the film was released in Germany in 1970. I have a confession to make, Peter O'Toole has been the only actor I've ever had a crush on. But only the young O'Toole. At the time of the production of the film he was 35 years old. My crush began to dwindle after that; in 1989 I saw Peter O'Toole in the play Jeffrey Bernhard is Unwell in London. He was 57 then, I shouldn't have gone.
This is a fitting place to fill in the ages of the other actors. The real Queen Eleanor was 61 years old in 1183, Katherine Hepburn was 61 years old when she played her. (An interesting aside: She was a (very distant) descendant of the real Queen Eleanor from numerous lines.) King Henry II was 50 years old in 1183 and was played by 35-year-old Peter O'Toole as I've already mentioned. His film sons were only five, seven and thirteen years younger than he. If I hadn't found this information on IMDb, I wouldn't have suspected this. Thanks to the make-up artist and costume designer I didn't notice any discrepancies.
I can well imagine the play on stage. We can enjoy wonderful images (photography: Douglas Slocombe) of the wintry landscape and life at a château of the Middle Ages with dogs and pigs running around everywhere and noblemen eating like the latter animals, but The Lion in Winter is really an intimate play. The language is elaborate with a Shakespearian flair. People talk, argue, shout, whisper, cry, they love or hate each other and sometimes both at the same time. In 2003 a remake was shot with Patrick Stewart and Glenn Close. I don't want to watch it; it's probably a good film, but it can't be better than the original. I just can't imagine that Peter O'Toole and Katherine Hepburn can be surpassed. Hepburn got an Oscar for her performance, O'Toole was nominated, too, but didn't get one because he'd already got the trophy for playing the same king, Henry II, in Beckett. I wonder if he had identity problems during those years?
The other actors must also be praised. Anthony Hopkins gives a Prince Richard who makes his by-name Lionheart believable. He's strong, brave but also sensitive. John Castle as Prince Geoffrey, the sandwich child, is a mean bastard but conveys the impression that this is his only way to attract attention and that he'd love to be different if only his parents would notice him. I must apologise to Hugh Grant, when I saw Prince John I thought it was him as a young man, the name Nigel Terry meaning nothing to me. He does look a bit like him, doesn't he? But he was only eight years old when the film was shot. He comes over as utterly dim-witted, Richard calls him 'a walking pustule'. It's a mystery why his father is so besotted with him. Jane Marrow is beautiful and innocent, the only character with a pure heart. She's moved around as if she were a chess piece. It's touching to see how she defends herself. The costume designer (Margaret Furse) who did good work with all other characters committed a blunder with her. It's clear that it's freezing cold in the château in winter, everyone is wearing several layers of cloth, hides, furs, only Alais walks around in thin dresses with deep décollétes. If the real Alais had done this, she'd have died a premature death of pneumonia. This isn't mentioned on IMDb, yet some other nice blunders are. Henry refers to the lack of value of Eleanor's signature on paper although paper became known in Europe only a century later; parchment was used then. Syphilis is mentioned although the first recorded outbreak was 300 years later. We see the Queen decorating a Christmas tree, although Christmas trees were introduced by Queen Victoria's husband only over seven hundred years later! Wonderful trivia.
I can't understand why people buy DVDs and watch the same films again and again. This costs a lot of money and is boring in my opinion. So many films, so little time! I've recently discovered Lovefilm, a sibling of Amazon's where I can rent DVDs. Perfect. For me this discovery is especially valuable because I can now watch English and American films in the original version. All films shown in German cinemas are dubbed which is a pity for people who can understand foreign languages. 'Original version' means here that I can hear the actors talking English. But that was not the language spoken by the historical characters. King Henry II understood many languages but spoke only Latin and French. (Imagine the film in Latin with English subtitles!)
I've started my rent-a-DVD life with old films I remember from my youth. The reason is partly nostalgia, partly interest in finding out if my taste or my perception of the topics has changed. The Lion in Winter is deeply rooted in history, yet, I find it deals with eternally valid themes. Let Henry not be the King of an Empire but the boss of a firm with sons who all want to inherit it and hate each others' guts. Make him a conniving, sly old fox who can see every treachery coming and is capable of every treachery himself. Give him a wife with the same qualities. He wouldn't be able to exile her as it was possible in the Middle Ages, but he'd find a way to get rid of her - make her live in a rich, second home far away - so that he could live with his young lover. Maybe he wouldn't threaten his sons with a dagger and throw them into a dungeon but he'd certainly find other means to subdue them. Exasperated with his scheming brood he would also constantly think of divorce so that he could marry again and start a new family with, hopefully, more obliging children. Does that sound like a story which is nearly a thousand years old? Certainly not.
If you're not a Christmas type, if you're afraid of too much sweetness and harmony in your family during the holidays or if you wonder if there are other dysfunctional families like yours when you find them all together squabbling under the Christmas tree, I can recommend this film as an antidote.

Actor tours base: 'This stuff is great!'
Actor Connor Cruise, his road manager and several associates arrived early for the Tuesday, Nov. 13, sneak preview of "Red Dawn" so they could tour Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC) Port Hueneme, including the Self-Defense Test Ship.
After an on-deck explanation of the ship's purpose and remote-control capabilities, Cruise's group began firing questions:
Does this really shoot missiles?
Can you really remote control this whole ship?
Can it sail to Asia without stopping?
How long does it take to "gas up"?
Yes. Yes. No, we would have to stop in Hawaii. Two days.
After sitting in the captain's chair and executive officer's chair on the bridge, the group had to hurry to the Needham Theater so Cruise could sign autographs. But they said they were looking forward to coming back to tour more of the facility, meet more Sailors and try out some of the simulators at Point Mugu.
"I'm a 17-year-old kid," Cruise said. "This stuff is great!"

VIDEO: 'Super Sunday' as Newquay surfers take on notorious Cribbar reef
Posted: October 22, 2012|
As winter in Cornwall has welcomed some collosal swells this year, Newquay's notorious surfing reef, the Cribbar, continues to break.
Off-shore winds combined with a huge Atlantic swells saw perfect conditions with waves reaching triple-over-head.
The reef, situated about half a mile off Towan Headlane at the north end of Fistral Beach, only breaks a handful of times a year when swell conditions are perfect.

Although I live in what most would probably call a suburb, our home is surrounded by woodlands and plant life. In addition to the flora and vegetation we and our family members have put in (blueberry bushes, trees, and so on), there is a ton of stuff growing wild. If you doubt me, you should see the sticks, twigs, leaves, flower heads, and seed pods my Maine coon cat, Dickens, routinely carries home in his luxuriously fluffy tail.

The Elmira Sugar Kings have kicked off 2013 on a winning note.
Elmira picked up a pair of wins on the first weekend back after the holiday layoff, including a victory over the Midwest Conference leaders.
The Sugar Kings outscored Caledonia 8-6 on home ice Sunday, to move within three points of the first-place squad. The teams combined for 12 power-play goals in the penalty-filled contest.
Elmira squandered an early 4-1 lead in the second period, after Caledonia struck for three goals in the span of 2:23. But the Sugar Kings rallied to take a 5-4 lead after two periods of play, then scored three times in the third to seal the victory.
Craig Johnson and Brandon Stewart both scored twice and added an assist for Elmira, while Brady Campbell had three helpers. Jake Weidner, Zac Coulter and Patrick McKelvie chipped in with a goal and an assist each. Steven Jakiela rounded out the scoring, and Mitch Wright, Cash Seraphim, Rob Kohli and Adam Brubacher added assists.
Scoring for the Corvairs were Connor Murphy (2), Tyler Norrie, Adam Brady, Jeff Swift and Marc Silvestri.
Elmira goaltender Hayden Neuman made 43 saves.
Saturday, Elmira got the New Year off on the right foot with a 3-2 overtime victory over the Waterloo Siskins.
The Sugar Kings had trailed 2-0 after two periods of play, but rallied to tie the game in the third on goals by Mitch Wright (assisted by Matt Harding, Cass Frey) and Brady Campbell (Weidner, Stewart).
Stewart scored the game winner at 3:39 of overtime, with assists to McKelvie and Seraphim.
Waterloo goal scorers were Jimmy Soper and Jakub Jelen.
Mackenzie Blackwood stopped 33 of 35 shots in goal for Elmira.
The Sugar Kings (22-9-3) return to action this Friday at Listowel. They travel to Brampton on Saturday, then are back on home ice on Sunday to play Stratford. Game time is 2 p.m.

Donald and Steyn.
Donald and Steyn.
Cricket Web's current Premier League Tipping Champion
- As featured in The Independent.
"I don't think that they'll come close to us to be honest."
- Steve Smith before the Ashes
Not sure that Shaun Pollock can be described as a new ball bowler in the context of an ATG team? Peter yes, Shaun no.

I am often asked who was the best, fastest or toughest bowler I ever faced and I quite enjoy giving different answers every time. Well, it keeps me amused anyway but the underlying point is that one could revise this whole list on a daily basis and never really be right and never really be wrong - DAVID GOWER
Fully agree, still making up my mind between Steyn and Adcock to partner Donald.
Aus. XI
Simpson^ | Hayden | Bradman | Chappell^ | Ponting | Border* | Gilchrist+ | Davidson3 | Warne4^ | Lillee1 | McGrath2
Greenidge | Hunte | Richards^ | Headley* | Lara^ | Sobers5^ | Walcott+ | Marshall1 | Ambrose2 | Holding3 | Garner4
Richards^ | Smith*^ | Amla | Pollock | Kallis5^ | Nourse | Cameron+ | Procter3 | Steyn1 | Tayfield4 | Donald2
Eng. XI
Hobbs | Hutton*^ | Hammond^ | Compton | Barrington | Botham5^ | Knott | Trueman1 | Laker4 | Larwood2 | Barnes3
Strike rate too high and number of 5 wicket hauls too low.
Tough one this.
Donald and Steyn I suppose.
Stats from the Past: The best new-ball pairs in Test cricket | Highlights | Cricinfo Magazine | ESPN Cricinfo
Shaun Pollock and Allan Donald formed possibly the best new ball pair of all time.
RIP Phil Hughes. Forever 63*
But in my humble opinion both Steyn or Adcock would be significantly more formidable new ball partners to Donald if given the hypothetical chance.
his bowling lost penetration after that period and he became more of a container but for around 7-8 years he was up there with Donald. His career was very similar to Waqar i think
Will have Pollock in the side but Steyns a better opening option imo.

Pollock is actually my first bowler picked but I want him at first change and we were told to pick the opening bowlers, so yeah.

Client Spotlight: University of Florida
Our thanks go out to Amy Jorgensen, Marketing Coordinator at University of Florida, for sitting down with us for this UF spotlight.
Amy Jorgensen, Marketing Coordinator at University of Florida
Tell us about your journey to and experience within Higher Education
I was highly encouraged to start a career in higher education by my grandfather. He was the Director of the University of Connecticut Stamford campus and taught at UMASS Amherst. My aunt also teaches at the University of Hartford, so I guess you can say I was destined to start a higher ed career.
I spent about 10 years in the hospitality industry, working for companies like Disney, Universal Studios, and KSL Recreation. I had recently returned from working at Universal Studios Japan when I decided to return to college. I was offered a position as a secretary at UF, and knew that I had to live in the Gator Nation.
Coming to UF is the best decision I have ever made. The Department of Housing and Residence Education is one of the best work environments I've ever encountered. After the secretarial position, I worked in the UF College of Medicine and even took a brief position at Disney in Internal Communications and Marketing, before the Department of Housing called me back for my dream job and I very happily found myself back in Gainesville
My experience with the University of Florida has been incredibly rewarding. The Department of Housing and Residence Education supported my efforts to finish my degree. In addition, I work with one of the best teams in the country and am very lucky to have such a great boss. Our Associate Director, TJ Logan, is one of the best bosses I\'ve ever had - very supportive and motivating. I definitely recommend working at the University of Florida, especially the Division of Student Affairs.
So now you are Marketing Coordinator at UF Housing & Residence Education, what is UF\'s social media presence, what is your strategy?
We had around 1400 Facebook fans when I started, and now we've grown to just little under 5400. While this is important, I think it's important to also measure success through consumer engagement factors: page views, interactions, comments, and posts. All the fans in the world don\'t matter if they\'re not engaged, interested, and ready to share your information.
Some of Facebook.com/UFHousing 2011 highlights include 182 comments in one day, almost 6000 weekly active users, and nearly 390,000 Facebook page views in only one month. That many page views was very exciting! In comparison, our website had about 800,000 page views in a whole year - so to obtain almost half that in one month was very exciting! For more strategy, you can check out the presentation on social media I did at the ACHUO-I Business Conference.
I believe that RoomSync can be a significant component of enriching our consumer engagement. It is also a tremendous customer service tool, and a fantastic amenity that any higher education housing facility should consider!
What were the biggest challenges in roommate assignment for UF housing before RoomSync?
We think it's very important for students to choose their roommate. This way, students can have a more positive experience because they feel empowered.
UF is one of the select few universities that allows its students to choose their room and roommate during the assignments process. Early applicants can hold a space for a roommate that they find through social media, RoomSync or someone they knew from high school. Building students into the process and allowing them to to have choices can greatly increase customer satisfaction.
According to TJ Logan, staff noticed a reduction in roommate conflicts and in problems related to room transfers. Students hold themselves more accountable when they choose their own roommates and they learn how to compromise.
So what would you say is the most effective way of getting the word out to students so they are excited and use RoomSync?
I think the best way is through social media. Many students don't pay attention to emails anymore. For the younger generation, it's all about texts and social media. Begin with email and include all the information; then send a reminder email a week or month later.
Tell us about the growth of the RoomSync network.
The growth at the University of Florida has been quite positive! Our first year had about 1300 users and the second year grew to 3300 users. We have about 7500 undergrads living in campus housing, so it's pretty great when half are using RoomSync. About 80% of users are first-year students and even for those who didn\'t find their roommate, RoomSync provides a great opportunity to build community before students are even on campus.
Now for some fun questions. What is your favorite movie?
Splash, 1984. Tom Hanks, Daryl Hannah, Eugene Levy, John Candy. How could you not love this movie?!
Who is your favorite musician?
Pre-1990 Michael Jackson. Off the Wall always gets me going! I'm also a big fan of Journey, Aerosmith, and other classic rock.
