Phoenix confirm Herbert resignation
The Wellington Phoenix have confirmed the resignation of football coach Ricki Herbert.
Herbert has cited his desire to focus on his international duties with the All Whites in a busy World Cup qualification year, and his belief that the time is right for change at the club, in light of poor results this season.
After making the A-League playoffs for a third straight time last year, the Phoenix are at the foot of this season's A-league table having gone nine games without a win since early December, although they drew 2-2 at home last weekend against Adelaide.
The Phoenix board says in accepting Herbert's resignation it has offered Herbert an advisory position within the Club.
Herbert has been the Phoenix's only head coach after taking the role at the inception of the Club in 2007.
The current assistant coach Chris Greenacre will take over the coaching responsibilities until the end of the 2013 season.

Car burglary suspect detained by bystanders after attempting to hit them with scooter
TULSA - Tulsa police are crediting several good Samaritans with catching a car burglar.
Early Tuesday morning, police responded to a neighborhood near 11th and Urbana after receiving a 911 call reporting suspicious activity.
Upon arrival, officers found several bystanders had detained 24-year-old William Moss.
According to the police report, Moss was seen looking into car windows and walking away from a car with a screw driver and possible stolen property.
Witnesses said they saw Moss put the items under the seat of his scooter and as they approached Moss he tried to hit them with the scooter.
Police found the stolen items under Moss' scooter seat as well as a knife, commonly used burglar tools and the medications Adderall and Ritalin.
According to the report, Moss told police he did not have a prescription for the drugs.
Police say they also found a loaded airsoft pistol that was a replica of a semi-automatic handgun and a wallet with multiple IDs that did not belong to Moss.
He was arrested for second-degree burglary, possession of stolen property, burglary tools, a firearm and controlled drugs without a prescription as well as assault and battery with a dangerous weapon.
Moss was booked into the Tulsa County Jail on $94,000 bond.

DCI Barnaby (John Nettles) along with Detective Sergeant Ben Jones (Jason Hughes) are once again solving the murders of the usually quiet village district of Midsomer. This quaint English district has to be one of the worse when it comes to murder. This place seems to have it down pat when it comes to murder mystery. On the air for so many years the two detectives always get their murderer. When it comes to mystery Barnaby and Jones are the best. This is one of those enjoyable murder mysteries that you just come back to for more.
The episodes of series 11 are 'Blood Wedding', 'Shot at Dawn', 'Left for Dead', 'Midsomer Life', 'The Magician's Nephew', 'Days of Misrule', and 'Talking to the Dead'. The stories are fantastic. For instance, in 'Blood Wedding' Barnaby attends a wedding where the maid of honor is murdered. As you can guess it turns everybody off the festivities. In the episode titled 'Shot at Dawn' it seems a running feud between two families goes back to WWI. When a member of one family is added to a war memorial it infuriates another family because the person added was a deserter and coward or at least was accused. At a reenactment of the battle there is the death of one of the feuding neighbors. It is up to Barnaby to go through all the trash and gossip of both families and finally come up with a murderer.
These are the mysteries that you will see in Series 11. They are entertaining as well as enjoyable. Acorn is responsible for bringing this delightful DVD set of one of England's best murder mystery TV shows. The set will be out on September 2, 2014. So yes you will be wanting to buy this for your personal DVD library. This set will bring you hours of entertainment.
Come and watch Barnaby and Jones investigate and solve the murders of this quiet little English village district where so much can happen with so little effort.

Walton County voters have one more day, Tuesday, to cast their vote on a proposed half-cent sales tax increase.
Walton County commissioners are asking voters to decide if they want to pay an extra half-cent to go to 4-laning highway-331 and building a new bridge over Choctawhatchee Bay.
But some voters believe the county will move ahead with the plans, no matter what voter's decide. County officials estimate they could pay back up to 75-million dollars in about 18-years, then the tax would end.
Florida D-O-T has committed to sunset the estimated 2-dollar toll once it collects the 75-million, but those plans could change, and the toll amount could increase.
Voting is 7 AM to 7 PM Tuesday in Walton County

30 Day Shred - Day 2
Sunday, March 03, 2013
I was not looking forward to getting up this morning and launching into Day 2. Day 1 was tough. There's that part where Jillian says "If you think you're going to die, follow Anita" and my inner monologue was going "And how is Anita supposed to jump through the screen to save me Jillian HUH HUH???!!" When I swung my legs over the side of the bed this morning I was greeted with the nice ache from the terror's that Jillian had put me through yesterday. Again, reaffirming my lack of jubilance to do it all over again. Fortunately, I did put my exercise clothes out ready to go on my dresser last night before I went to bed, so they were sitting there mocking me, taunting me "Are you giving up on Day 2 grrrrl? Seriously, it's only Day 2, quitting already are you?" I'll show them. So I snatched those loud-clothes and sneakers, threw them on, queued up the video and away I went.
Honestly, the worst part of the morning was getting the work out started. The battle between skipping it and doing it. Thankfully, I did it. Between yesterday and today I had noticeable improvement in my performance. Yesterday I thought maybe the 5lbs weights were too much, but today I was able to get through each exercise with them. It was challenging, but I could do it. When it came time for Jillian's comment about following Anita if I felt like I was going to die, I was actually feeling OK. I followed the video again with another YogaAmazing video to stretch out some more. Hopefully, this will again combat some of the stiff and sore.
I know this battle between skipping and just doing what we intend is something we all struggle with. We are all too happy and proud when we make the choice we intended. We reflect that we it was the better of the two paths, that in our minds the challenge is more taunting than it actually is to accomplish. However, while I won this battle, I am afraid I will forever be fighting that inner war with myself. I've learned these lessons, I need to keep reminding myself that it's easier to do than I think it is, and take positive steps like putting out my "mocking" clothes the night before to give me added ammunition in each battle, and maybe someday I'll win the war.

Disease Proof
Emily's Postmodern Transformation
Remember Emily? She was tired of yo-yo dieting and being unhealthy. So, as an artist, she crafted her own health renaissance:
Great job Emily! Now, lots of people have changed their lives on Dr. Fuhrman's program. So be sure to check out all the success stories.
Image credit: emilysboller
This is amazing! She appears 20 years younger. I've ordered the book and can't wait to get started. I think I'll take some before shots like Emily did. Thank you for sharing.
This is a startling transformation. Not only does
she look much healthier, she also looks much happier. Congratulations, Emily! You're an inspiration to all
of us.
Hi Gerry
Her last photo looks like it was taken at university or something like that, years prior.
Incredible transformation.
Dear All,
I have been friends with the family for many years and I can testify to Emily's faithfullness. Congratulations Emily!!!
Hi Emily, I am wanting guidance on getting through the deep rooted bad habits so I can have success in my transformation. Do I just need to "force" the good food in for a couple of days and it will help change the physiology and make it easier to stick to or is it all mental? Any guidance would be great.
Hi Leslie,
You need to commit to eating the greens at the beginning before your tastebuds ever change to "liking" them. (and believe me, eventually you will!!!)
Get the phytochemicals and micronutrients in you. Your body is most likely severely malnourished if you have deep rooted "bad habits", so all the more you need to eat excellent nourishment.
As you nourish your body, the cravings for bad stuff will subside, and then eventually go away.
Re-read the chapters in Eat for Health on toxic hunger and cravings vs true hunger. You MUST get through the addictive cravings if you want to get free and get your health back!
Cheering for you!
Go girl! You CAN do it!
Absolutely stunning transformation! You don't even look like the other person. You are an inspiration.
On your website you don't say much about whether exercise was a big part of your weight-loss (other than the pictures of you running at the end). Did you incorporate exercise from the beginning or was all of your weight-loss and getting healty due to changing your eating habits?
Emily...I could watch this transformation every day and still get inspired.
Thank you!
Emily, are you related to Doug Taylor, the Habitat Director from Haiti???
Trying hard to figure this out. I had gastric bypass in 2000. The food is so bulky that I am having trouble eating enough. I make a super soup with highest micronutrient veggies and beans and cashews and micro salads. I have trouble with many fruits and can't do juicing because of dumping and reactive hypoglycemia. My Dr. Says to stop losing weight but I'm continuing to lose because I can't seem to eat enough. So far I haven't found any blogs of others doing the nutritarian diet after bypass surgery. If you have any advice I would love to hear from you! Thank you, Pam Smith

Samsung Galaxy S Deals on Contract
Looking for the best contract on the Samsung Galaxy S – compare the best deals on the Samsung Galaxy S here. The Samsung Galaxy S is available for free on the best mobile phone deals. Compare prices now to get the best Samsung Galaxy S contract.
More About The Samsung Galaxy S
The Samsung Galaxy S is intended to be the Korean business firm's major assault on the smart phone marketplace. They have packed oodles of top end technology into a handset; they believe this can challenge the iPhone 4.
There's more than just great technology in here to beat up the iPhone – the shape looks definitely similar too, in spite of the much bigger screen, which comes out at a whopping four inches. The tone of the frame is also odd, but in an effective way. It's almost a millimeter denser than the iPhone 4. We know this is stunning but it does not feel it, thanks to the curled back. The downside of this structure is that it feels like a bit plasticy, which is not the impression Samsung were probably aiming for in what is otherwise a a premium smart phone. It's very light at only 118g.
Whilst Google is intent on dropping off the customized overlays on advanced Android smart phones, Samsung has ultimately decided to offer its own skin for the search engine's mobile OS. Called as TouchWiz 3.0, this skin is the development of attempts from a number of Samsung handsets, sadly most of which were pretty awful to use, with a range of gadgets that underachieved compared to the competitors.
This overlay was 1st utilized on the Samsung Wave, where fresh widgets were the order of the day. These worked comfortably, and 10 home screens was an incentive, on the Galaxy S you catch 7 displays to act upon, and both widgets and icons. The latter is amazing, as it means you'll be able to mess around with positioning of your favorite applications.
Things like Daily Briefing are really accurate in what they offer. We'd have favored more customization than mere weather and news updates, whilst RSS feeds are always convenient, provided you've the head to set them up. But the user interface on the Samsung Galaxy S is to a higher degree; the big, capacitive touch screen is just amazing. We're not saying it's better than the iPhone 4 (or worse for that matter), but for an individual who's never picked up a touch screen phone in their life, this would be amazing. And whilst it is difficult to say it is better than the iPhone 4, for the rest of us, this is an excellent mobile phone which is a great alternative. To many, this would be better than the iPhone 4 and we can see why!
Compare Samsung Galaxy S contracts above. At best mobile phone contracts you will find Samsung Galaxy S deals from all networks, including, Orange, O2, Virgin, T-Mobile, Three and Vodafone. You can find the best Samsung Galaxy S deals here on the contracts.

If you are interested in the history of the automobile, and you are willing to brave the expected snowstorm in Kansas City, you should set some time aside on Tuesday night for "A Century of Automobility: Exploring America's Car Culture." Janet Davidson, PhD, a historian and scholar from the Smithsonian, will be at Kansas City's Union Station to discuss automotive history and the impact of the automobile on everything from work to play.
Dr. Davidson's lecture was made possible by Haverty Family Foundation and the Mid-America Regional Council.
You should expect someone from the Smithsonian Museum to know what they're talking about. The Smithsonian is the world's largest museum and research complex, consisting of 19 museums and galleries, the National Zoological Park and nine research facilities. Even the most hardened automotive expert can certainly learn something from someone with so much expertise and research under their belt.
This event is free, but space is limited. If you would like to attend, be sure to reserve your seats by visiting https://boxoffice.unionstation.org/public/show.asp.

According to Fox News on March 11, officials at Joel Osteen's Lakewood Church say $600,000 in cash and checks was stolen from a safe over the weekend. Of the $600,000 stolen, $200,000 of it was in cash and the other $400,000 was in checks. Offering envelopes that may include credit card information were also taken.
The robbery wasn't discovered until 8:30 a.m. Monday morning when a church employee and off-duty Harris County Sheriff's Officer noticed the break in. Investigators believe the theft occurred sometime between Sunday afternoon and Monday morning.
Official did not indicate how the safe might have been robbed, but Lakewood members and others who donated over the weekend were told by letter posted on the church's website to keep an eye on their financial accounts and report any suspicious activity concerning their donations from services on March 8 and March 9.
The church also stressed that this is not an electronic data breach. Those are not affected who put their offering in a drop box, or who gave online or through other electronic means, or you made a bookstore purchase.
Lakewood Church in Houston, Texas is the mega-church led by Joel and Victoria Osteen where more than 40,000 people attend weekly services.
The good news in this situation is that the funds were fully insured, and the church is working with its insurance company to replace the stolen funds.
Police will be looking at surveillance video from inside of the church

Here's why this album should be in your collection!
Head Hunters, released late in 1973 by Herbert Jeffrey Hancock, was already a breakthrough jazz album before it spawned an R&B dance hit.
That hit was "Chameleon." The 45 rpm single version was perfect for a popular Seventies dance: The Bump. The Headhunters band featured Hancock (keyboards and synthesizers), Paul Jackson (bass), Bennie Maupin (brass instruments), Harvey Mason (drums), and Bill Summers (percussion).
The album reflected Hancock's love for electronic gadgets (especially sound machines), skillfully mixed with brass and African percussion. According to this source, artist Victor Moscoso combined a Goli mask and a tape head demagnetizer to represent Hancock's head on the cover. "Sly" (a tribute to Sylvester Stewart) and "Vein Melter" satisfied jazz fans. Hancock's 1962 version of "Watermelon Man" had inspired a hit cover version for Mongo Santamaria. The Headhunters version is now also a jazz standard.
The Headhunters recorded several albums with Hancock and with Mike Clark as drummer. The band still records and performs with Clark, Jackson, and Summers as its core. Their signature hit is "God Me Made Funky," featuring DeWayne "Blackbyrd" McKnight on guitar and The Pointer Sisters on vocals. The Fugees recorded a cover version.
This album is available in CD and MP3 format from major vendors. Please consider purchasing it from a local independent record store.
Here's an interesting fact!
Hancock's ARP synthesizer provided the intro for "Chameleon." But the album's most amazing instrument was a common consumer item: a beer bottle.

Smoothest coffee in the world
January 9, 2011
I've been using the Toddy cold brew coffee maker for 3 years and I will never go back to brewing coffee in a regular coffee maker. Once you've tried this system, you won't go back.
Pros:It's easy, fast and you don't have to make coffee for two weeks.
Cons:The filters clog up if you use too fine of a grind.

Tech Qualifies Three to Eugene Friday at NCAA West Prelims
JaCorian Duffield will make his third-straight trip to the NCAA Championships.
May 30, 2014
Results | Saturday Heat Sheets | Texas Tech Performance Chart
LUBBOCK, Texas - The Texas Tech track and field program continued its qualifying efforts Friday at Arkansas' John McDonnell Field in Day 2 of the NCAA West Preliminaries.
The No. 5 Red Raiders and No. 15 Lady Raiders pushed three more athletes through to the NCAA Championship finals in Eugene, bringing their total to six in two days of competition with the meet wrapping up Saturday.
Tech, for the second-straight season, will send the duo of Bradley Adkins and JaCorian Duffield to the NCAA Championship meet. Fresh off claiming the top two spots at the Big 12 Championships the pair wasted little time securing qualifying spots at the NCAA West Preliminaries, each clearing four straight bars on first attempts - the final coming at 2.16-meters (7-feet 1 inch).
On the track, junior Lady Raider Cierra White punched her own ticket to Oregon, finishing third in her heat and fifth overall in the quarterfinals of the women's 100-meter dash with a time of 11.41 seconds. She'll be making her third-career appearance at the NCAA Outdoor Championships and second in the 100m. She finished sixth overall in 2013 to become Tech's first female All-American in the event since 2010 and second in school history.
White went on to secure a spot in Saturday's quarterfinals of the 200-meters as she finished third in her heat and eighth overall with a time of 23.32.
"She did an outstanding job," Associate head coach Dion Miller said. "She ran like a veteran."
Lady Raider sophomore Le'Tristan Pledger qualified Friday for the quarterfinals of the 100-meter hurdles finishing third overall in 13.21 seconds. Pledger is looking to make her second-straight trip to the NCAA Championships in the hurdles.
"She handled the round very well." Miller said.
For the Red Raiders, sophomore Tramaine Maloney punched his ticket to Saturday's quarterfinals of the 110m hurdles with a third place finish in his heat. The All-Big 12 performer clocked a time of 14.09 seconds into a slight headwind, and will run Saturday at 7:05 p.m. for a chance to make his first career appearance at the national meet.
Teammate Trevor Mackey went on to qualify for the quarterfinals of the men's 200m with a third place finish in his heat. The All-Big 12 performer crossed the finish line in 20.97 seconds, and will compete Saturday at 7:35 p.m. for a chance to qualify for national meet.
The NCAA West Preliminaries continue with the third and final day of action Saturday at John McDonnell Field. Live results from the meet can be found at FlashResults.com.

|Route Climbed: South Ridge/Devil's Lake TH Date Climbed: August 8, 2005
|Beautiful, clear day - nine hour hike well worth every footfall. Getting to walk in the crater at the top was a highlight. Pretty sure I brought half the mountain back down to the car though - had to take my boots off twice to dump the scree.
|Posted Aug 9, 2005 2:25 am
|Route Climbed: South Ridge Date Climbed: August 1, 2005
|Dad (SP's Mistchief) and I Started at 1:00 PM at Green Lakes Trail Head on July 1, 2005 got to Morain Lake at about 3:00 PM. Left the next day at 5:10 AM, cloudy but a nice cool breeze kept off the heat. Got to the summit at 11:00 AM and we couldnt see Mount Hood or any other mountains to the far north. Left the summit at 12:00 PM and got back to camp about 2:30 PM and back to the car by just before 5:00 PM.
|Posted Aug 5, 2005 8:17 pm
|Route Climbed: South Ridge Date Climbed: 8-01-05
|We started at Green Lakes TH at 1:00 PM on 7-31-05. Left from Moraine Lake at 5:10AM the next day. It was a great hike, a few clouds obstructed our view of the peaks to the far north but was a great compramise to hiking in the heat. Levi, 12, my son's 2nd major peak, had a little trouble but it hasn't dampened his spirits in the least. Summited at 11:00AM far from any records but we made the top. Returned to Moraine Lake at 3:00PM & back to the TH at just before 5:00.
|Posted Aug 3, 2005 8:38 pm
|Route Climbed: Devil Lake Trailhead Date Climbed: 7-29-05
|Left the trailhead at 0700hrs and summited around 1100hrs. Views were not great due to the fire along SR140. Will comback to do the other sisters.

|Route Climbed: South/ Devil's Lake TH Date Climbed: 07/24/2005
|Began @ 7am from TH, it was already hot. Few mosquitoes was a pleasant suprise. Scree running to the summit and made it by 10:30. It was a typical perfectly clear summer day in Central Oregon. An easy hike (minus the rock slides) and awesome views, I wouldn't reccommend the trip on a weekend!
|Posted Jul 24, 2005 8:06 pm
|Route Climbed: South Ridge Date Climbed: June 27, 2004
|Summitted with my 14 year old son Jonathan. His first peak over 10K. It was a great day with wonderful views up and down the Cascades. We hit snow early on, which continued for most of the climb to the summit. Sure beats climbing on late season scree.
Jonathan needed some pushing near the summit. He made it to the crater rim only to be told that the true summit was on the other side. Reluctantly he made the trek across.
It was all worthwhile though as the glissades down, including a great one off the summit face, were lots of fun.
|Posted Jul 13, 2005 1:23 pm
|Route Climbed: South Ridge Date Climbed: July 2, 2005
|Camped at Moraine lake, started climb at 4am. The snow was nice and hard and we were the first to summit that day. On the way back the snow was very soft and slushy which was nice for glissading but not nice for those going up.
The weather was clear and the views were amazing.
Ski poles made moving very easy, did not need ice axe or crampons.

|This was my first summit of a Cascade Volcano, and I am hooked! I wasn't too crazy about all the scree, but the view from the top made it worth it all! I'm looking forward to many more summits to come.

|Route Climbed: South Side Date Climbed: 7/10/97
|Made it up to within 500 ft of the summit when a storm blew in and we had to turn around. We were able to ski all the way down from that point though and it was great. Dropped a couple of nice cornices on the way, one right into a bowl with a little glacial lake sitting at the bottom of it. Tons of fun.

|Route Climbed: South Side Date Climbed: October 16, 2004
|Left Portland at Midnight Friday, hit the trailhead at Devil's Lake at 3:45. No moon, but crystal clear and the stars were amazing. Sunrise was inspiring at about 8500 ft. Wind was wicked from the ridge along Lewis Glacier on up: steady 30-40 mph, gusting much higher. Mike, Aaron and I were the first on the summit a little after 8:00 and had it to ourselves till we started back down about 9:30. Clear all around, but eerie clouds were continuously blowing across the top. Back to the car about 1:00 on the last beautiful sunny day before the snow hit.
|Posted Oct 18, 2004 1:18 pm
|Route Climbed: South Ridge Date Climbed: September 6, 2004
|Left Devils Lake at 2:30 AM to enjoy the bright moon, sunrise, and beat the crowds. We definitely beat the crowds, not a single person on the route that early morning. Had the summit crater to ourselves for over an hour on an amazing warm clear day. Kind of a strange feeling to have South Sister to yourself for so long on a beautiful day. Been up there when it is snowing and seen the crater swarming with people. Found the crowds on or way back down the south ridge though. Nice cold dip in Devils Lake and nap upon return.
|Posted Sep 8, 2004 11:52 pm
|Route Climbed: South Side Date Climbed: August 21, 2004
|Great climb with Aukjen, Bernard, Peter and Ian. Arrived in Central Oregon late at night, no campgrounds open on entire Cascade Lakes Highway. Decided to just hit the trail and see how far we could go. Left Devil's Lake Trailhead near midnight. Long slog up, last thousand feet pretty painful and slow, but an amazing night sky made it worth it. Only one other group headed up that night. Reached summit at sunrise, snapped photos on true summit and then fell asleep in wind shelter until 10 am. Woke to the company of dozens of other people on the summit. Great trip down, afternoon siesta in the shade, thunderstorms rolled in as we left. Beers/burgers at Deschutes Brewery before storm hit. Fabulous day out with good friends, and night climbing avoided the crowds... a much recommended strategy.

|What Amy said. Climbing up at night with sleeping bags to sack out in on the summit is the way to go. A cast of thousands on the way up when we headed down at about 10 a.m. An awesome starry-skied climb with great people. Also Floor Pie.

Holland America has relaxed its standard afternoon embarkation time, launching a new program that permits passengers to board as early as 11:30 a.m. As a result, early arrivals can get a jumpstart on their vacations -- open facilities include the Lido buffet and the pool grill as well as various lounges. Live music is performed at each ship's main pool. The Neptune Lounge, the suite-only concierge area, is open for those passengers.
One real advantage is that early embarkers can make appointments at the ships' spas, book shore excursions and make reservations for alternative dining.
Cabins, on the other hand, are not included in the open-early-roster; guests will be escorted to their staterooms after 1 p.m.

Watch: Al Qaeda, Hezbollah Battle it out in Syria
Footage taken by Syrian rebels appears to show fierce clashes along Lebanese border.
By Arutz Sheva Staff
First Publish: 7/15/2014, 7:04 PM
The Syrian branch of Al Qaeda - Jabhat al-Nusra (the Nusra Front) - has released video it says are of clashes between its men and Hezbollah fighters loyal to Syrian president Bashar al-Assad.
The footage appears to be from the mountainous Qalamoun region on the border with Lebanon.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said that seven Hezbollah fighters were killed in fighting with Sunni Islamist rebels on Monday, and 31 more were wounded. 16 rebels were also killed, although the Nusra Front claims to have successfully captured positions from pro-Assad forces.
It comes as the Nusra Front and other rebel groups are losing ground to the radical "Islamic State" or ISIS, which broke away from Al Qaeda last year and recently declared an Islamic "Caliphate" in parts of Syria and Iraq it controls.
Hezbollah has absorbed serious casualties since enlisting to help its allies in Damascus, with a steady flow of fighters returning dead or wounded to Lebanon.

E!Online has our first look at the October 3rd premiere of The Originals. Looks like we can expect flashbacks and the return of a gone-too-soon guest star.
With flashbacks playing such a major role on The Vampire Diaries, fans can expect to see even more on The Originals given the fact that Klaus, Elijah and Rebekah have clocked some thousand years. "I've read the first two scripts and I am just so excited. They both feature elements of flashback," Morgan recently told us. "They're both really on a larger scale. This is a war we're building toward."

According to an Entertainment Weekly exclusive, Todd Stashwick (Supernatural, Justified) has been cast in the recurring role of Father Kieran on season one of The Originals.
"Kieran is a tortured Priest with a dark past," executive producer Julie Plec says. "Once a powerful and pragmatic diplomat between the humans and the various supernatural factions in New Orleans, he returns home looking for answers about a personal tragedy but finds a very different landscape than when he left."
EW also reveals that Sebastian Roche will reprise his Vampire Diaries role of Mikael for at least one episode of The Originals.

Looks like Sebastian Roché is a great big tease. We're all dying to know more about Mikael and what's on his agenda, but the actor isn't giving anything away. TV Fanatic spoke with him recently, and while he wasn't offering any spoilers, there are a few very interesting little tidbits in this brief article. Thanks to @shirarose1 for the heads up!)
"This episode will make it extremely clear what the relationship is between Klaus and Mikael," the actor behind the latter says, adding that his character being freed from his slumber by Katherine has "reawakened his hunger for revenge."
Looks like this actor knows exactly how to make us crazy. We're watching you, Mr. Roché!
And make sure you check in to The Vampire Diaries on GetGlue today for a special Halloween sticker. Thanks to Vlada Gelman for the tip!

Mikael is one of the most intriguing new characters so far this season, and Wetpaint talked to Sebastian Roche about his feelings about the role, how likes Atlanta, why he hates spoilers, and more. On Mikael's agenda and why he's looking for Klaus:
I don't think I can talk about any of that, no. [Laughs] I really can't. I was sworn to secrecy. I mean, you know the fans are already surmising and they're already somewhat hipped to what might happen. Unfortunately, I can only talk about these things after the show's aired — which I think is a nice teaser in itself. But there are very, very intense exchanges that are going to happen between them.

Entertainment Weekly's Mandi Bierly has just blogged the news that The Vampire Diaries has cast its new mysterious Season 3 vampire hunter, and – wait for it, Supernatural fans (and General Hospital fans!) – it's Sebastian Roché (@sebroche on Twitter), who recently had quite the memorable turn in Supernatural as angel Balthazar. Roché will be a recurring guest star…and he sounds like a force to be reckoned with:
Executive producer Julie Plec tells EW Roché will play "a very mysterious man who appears to be hunting vampires, most specifically Klaus." Mysterious indeed. As Plec explains, "For some reason, Klaus, who shouldn't be afraid of anybody, seems to be concerned about this person."
Plec explains the character was originally supposed to be named Eric (you'll have to read why they've changed their mind over at EW.com) but will now be renamed – so he's "He-Who-Shall-Be-Renamed", for now.
Also, Entertainment Weekly has launched a gallery featuring more behind the scenes photos from the filming of Vampire Diaries' Season 3 premiere (following up their feature in the print issue). Check them all out at EW.com!

Employees and Social Investment
Employee Engagement
Relevance: A competitive advantage that drives our innovation
Engaged employees turn competence into greatness. They bring a drive and dedication to working through problems that are the forces behind innovation. They give more of themselves in countless ways that add up to tangible business results. In short, they are a competitive advantage that we believe will increasingly set apart leading companies.
Indeed, studies from Gallup and CEB Valtera have shown that companies with a highly engaged workforce are 18% more effective, 15% more innovative, and 10% better at serving their customers than other companies. Given its importance to our ability to innovate and achieve our business goals, we have made employee engagement one of our four company-wide strategic goals, in addition to customer success, revenue, and margin.
Approach: Working to establish a deep connection with SAP
Our mid-term goal is to achieve an employee engagement score of 82% by 2015. We seek to assess three main features of engagement: an intention to stay at SAP; going the "extra mile" to achieve success; and a strong belief and pride in our values, products and services. We measure engagement using our people survey, which addresses such issues as confidence in our strategy and how our employees view their career opportunities and corporate culture.
Achievements and challenges: In 2012, our engagement score increased from 77% to 79%
In 2012 we conducted a "pulse check," surveying 50% percent of our employees, compared to the 100% we include in our regular survey every other year. Our overall engagement score increased to 79%, compared with 77% in 2011. (In 2010 our score was 68%.) Employee satisfaction went up in nearly every category, including confidence in our strategic direction, innovation, and service of customers.
Employee Engagement
|Employee Engagement Index in %
|1)SAP did not conduct an employee survey in 2008.
Specific highlights of the pulse check include:
- 91% of respondents said they have a strong belief in our products and services (2011: 89%), and 87% have a strong belief in our passions (2011: 83%)
- 91 % feel it is important for SAP to pursue sustainabilitysustainabilityFor SAP, sustainability is the ability to manage economic, social, and environmental risks and opportunities holistically for increased profitability. It contributes to our vision to make the world run better and improve people's lives. SAP is committed t... (2011: 88%)
- 89% are proud to work at SAP (2011: 88%), again much higher than the average of 72% at other companies
- 83% would recommend SAP as a great place to work (2011: 80%), significantly higher than the average of 72% at other companies
- 81% said their team is constantly looking for better ways to serve customers (2011: 78%), compared to the industryindustryAn economic sector characterized by a value chain, business processes, and a set of products and services that is typical or common for all companies belonging to this sector. benchmark of 74%
- 71% said SAP inspires them to give their best (2011: 68%)
Our results indicate that the gains we experienced in 2011 have become a trend. We attribute this success to our efforts to enhance the experience of employees at SAP – from fostering a culture of innovation to deepening the connection they feel to our purpose. 2011 marked a turning point, as our engagement score rose by nine points, reversing a downward trend that we had experienced over the previous two years.
In 2012, we sought to maintain the drivers that we consider strengths of SAP – namely, confidence that our strategy works, as well as strong satisfaction with our culture of collaboration, respect and openness. We also implemented improvements to a series of employee-facing processes such as the corporate portal search functions, travel expense management, and authorization procedures, which have helped employees to spend more time innovating and less on time-consuming processes.
2013 and beyond: Deepening our efforts to simplify SAP
While our 2012 results keep us on track to reach our mid-term goal, we still have more to do. We still see the need to improve our processes and structures, which will be our primary focus for increasing engagement in 2013. While our score in this area rose by 2% in 2012, it only reached 52%. We believe that effective processes and structures are central to supporting people in doing their best work. They not only save time and duplication of effort, but they free up energy for innovation. In this sense they contribute to a healthy work environment that is less likely to lead to burnout, as our employees can better focus on the more meaningful parts of their jobs.
To drive our progress, we will focus in 2013 on the company-wide theme of simplifying how we work. In support of this effort, every team at SAP is working on an action item for the year that focuses on this theme, and we will be taking additional steps across SAP as well.
As these efforts demonstrate, employee engagement cannot be separated from our other major strategic objectives – namely, customer success, margin, and revenue. The engagement of our employees drives our ability to innovate, thereby leading to breakthrough solutions that better serve our customers and deliver financial value. By focusing on how these different aspects of SAP are connected, we believe we can be far more effective – not just in reaching specific goals, but in enhancing our overall business performance.

Last week, three hungry planners (Ian, Matt, and Martine) set out to eat their way through the historic neighborhood of Tacony in the North Delaware District. Tacony is home to the second best Delaware River Bridge (the Tacony-Palmyra, which costs only $2 to cross), a brand-spanking new firehouse, designed by superstar local architect and member of PCPC's Civic Design Review Committee, Cecil Baker, and, thanks to the Tacony CDC and their hard-working corridor manager Alex Balloon, the Tacony Hoagie Trail.
The Tacony Hoagie Trail is no joke. It consists of a trifecta of the most legit hoagie shops you will ever visit. The trail includes:
1. DeNofa's Deli, 6946 Torresdale Ave. Featuring homemade sausages and Italian specialties.
2. Fink's Hoagies, 4633 Princeton Ave, less than a block off Torresdale Avenue. Fink's uses seeded French loaf rolls from Liscio's Bakery. http://www.finkshoagies.com/index.htm
3. Jack's Place, 7167 Hegerman St. Home to the "best hoagie in the free world."
Not only did we eat like champs, we also held our own "Hoagie Idol" competition with judging in two categories: Italian and Specialty.
DeNofa's entry in the Specialty category was the Ernie featuring broccoli rabe, sausage (choice of hot or sweet), sharp provolone, hot peppers, fried onions, and mayo on a seeded roll.
Fink's entry in the specialty category was the Torresdale featuring extra lean roast pork, fresh spinach leaves, sharp provolone, roasted garlic, long-hots, onions, and creamy garlic sauce on a seeded roll.
Jack's entry in the Specialty category was the Downtowner, an Italian hoagie taken to extremes, featuring dry cured capicola, prosciutto, shaved sharp provolone, and olive spread on a seeded roll.
The unanimous winner of the Specialty category was DeNofa's Ernie. Despite our general distaste for mayo on hoagies, in this case it complimented the homemade hot Italian sausage perfectly. This sandwich scored first on all three ballots. The trip to Tacony was worth it for this sandwich alone.
The Italian category offered something for everyone. All three hoagies scored first on one ballot each. This is a testament to just how good these hoagie shops really are. South Philly has nothing on Tacony. Ian enjoyed Jack's Italian the most. The olive spread was a nice touch. Matt appreciated DeNofa's the best, especially the seeded roll from Liscio's. Martine preferred Fink's Italian, which comes standard with long-hots.
These are three of the best hoagie shops around. Don't let our judging sway you. Take a trip to Tacony and check out one of Philadelphia's most historic neighborhoods. While you're at it, support three amazing local businesses serving up authentic Hoagies that would make your Uncle Tony proud. Get your sandwiches to go and eat them at the new Lardner's Point Park on the Delaware Riverfront. The new park is to the Tacony-Palmyra Bridge what the Race Street Pier is to the Ben Franklin Bridge.

The World Cup has come to a close. Germany won the cup with a one goal win over Argentina. The games are over and Brazil will wake up and wonder if it had been worth the costs. Projects that would help its citizens have been put on hold so the building or renovations on existing stadiums could be finished in time for the show. Unfortunately most were not ready.
People came away with stories of luxury on one block and devastating squalor on the next one. Shacks and thrown together lean to structures were seen in most cities. Brazil is a country of many faces. Some that are the most beautiful on this planet and others that you can only turn your head away in shame.
The government made many promises to its citizens and some were not kept Many of its citizens will never see a dime from the Cup others made millions from corrupt or illegal means. Many have question why Brazil was even given the World Cup due to its high poverty rate. The government would tell its citizens to stay home from work so those who were going to a match could use the public transit system without any problems. The transit system is one of the worst on the planet.
Prior to and during the Cup there were violent protests but most were never covered by the media and if they were it was at the end of the daily news. Brazil has many problems but it has a couple of years to fix them before the Olympics come to town.
The soccer was great. The games were usually free from the theatrics that one can see usually when fouls occur. I must say the soccer was some of the best I've seen over the last 40 years. I look forward to the next World Cup as I have every time following the final. For the citizens of Brazil I enjoyed seeing your country and I hope and pray that you at least break even monetarily. I wish your government would finish all the projects it has said it would to make your lives better. From the world I say thank you and wish you the best.
