don't waste the time.
I have very high standards for pediatric doctors being a pediatric nurse. My daughter has had 3 surgeries with Dr. Sargent and we've had nothing but great experiences. He is great with kids! I have nothing but great things to say about Dr. Sargent.
The nurses and technicians at the Novi office are caring and skilled. It is really what keeps me there. There is nothing wrong with Dr. Sargent and I am sure he knows what he is doing, however I do not feel as if I have connected with him. He is talking surgery without wanting to do any other options first. I would want to wait and see if other options might work.
POOR Bedside manner. I am 66 years old and have never been treated the way this Dr. treated me. He was very condecending, arrogant and rude. My regular Dr. in this group was not available, so I took an appointment with him because I could get in sooner. Now I know why he had a next day appointment available.

Men account for the majority of Truck Crane Operators in the United States. The overall average income for this group is approximately $18.72 per hour. Compensation ranges from $14.68 per hour on the lower end to $27.15 on the higher end. Unfortunately, some people in this line of work are without benefits — roughly a fourth lack coverage. On the flip side, a strong majority have medical insurance and close to one-half receive dental plans. Most Truck Crane Operators are fairly content with their jobs, and work satisfaction falls in line with the national average. Figures cited in this summary are based on replies to PayScale's salary questionnaire.

Truck crane operator positions are commonly found in the shipping and construction industries, though there are many other companies that hire individuals for this position as well. This job typically involves operating a specific piece of equipment, using it to efficiently load and unload cargo and/or other materials. There are many entry-level openings for truck crane operators, and this position usually requires a high school diploma or equivalent; some positions require a valid commercial driver's license as well, and different states have different regulations and qualifications for these positions. As far as specific knowledge, most companies require extensive preliminary training, as those without experience will need to learn how to use the tools and equipment.Read More...
Typically, the daily duties performed by truck crane operators include operating designated equipment while following all safety regulations and company protocols. Additional tasks include reading charts, manuals, and inspecting equipment on a regular basis. Learning to use hand signals and follow lift limits is necessary for this role, and many companies also require operators complete log entries and paperwork. Some positions also have other manual labor requirements, ranging from dealing with rivets or bolts to operating drills and jackhammers.
The truck crane operator's work is typically done with a team of workers performing similar or identical roles; there is typically a manager on site, although there is some level of independence in this role. Hazards should be mitigated through safety protocols. Work is generally done outdoors, and shifts vary depending on employers' needs.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Folks with fewer than five years of experience take home $44K on average. Interestingly, those who have worked for five to 10 years report receiving a smaller median salary of $41K. After working for 10 to 20 years, Truck Crane Operators make a median salary of $54K. Big financial gains seem to result from working for more than two decades; veterans in this group report earning $57K on average.

To help out readers who lack the most basic knowledge, she organizes the book by techniques rather than by ingredients. Soups are first, a relatively unintimidating choice to build confidence through delicious results such as true French Onion Soup and a contemporary Black Bean Gazpacho. Next come breads, updated to use a food processor to cut the kneading time. The fish chapter covers broiling a salmon steak and creating a sophisticated Crown Mousse of Trout. Chapters on poultry, meats, vegetables, and desserts are equally ample and wide-ranging.
When The Way to Cook was published in 1989, it accompanied a television series. A related set of videotapes, the first to teach cooking comprehensively, was offered simultaneously. However, more than 600 color photos in this book make it fully complete on its own.
The Way to Cook is a good reference volume, a useful gift, and a handsome way to follow Julia's career as she transformed from a French classicist to the ever-evolving, always clear and reliable teacher we have come to adore. --Dana Jacobi

While Julia covers a wide range of dishes in this book (Soups, Breads, Eggs, Fish, Poultry, Meat, Vegetables, Salads, Pastry, Desserts, and Cakes & Cookies) her emphasis is definitely on French/European cooking. If you are looking for recipes from different ethnic groups, you will need to find other cookbooks to compliment this one.
In the last five years that I've owned this cookbook, I've made a wide selection of recipes and have never been disappointed. From simple dishes such as crepes to complex day-long affairs such as Lamb Stew Printaniere, her instructions have been complete, straightforward, and detailed. If you follow her steps, you're guaranteed to have incredible results.
The book includes both beautiful and useful photographs. This is important, because one of the big drawbacks with most cookbooks are that they have incredible imagery of the finished dish, but don't actually show you how things should look as they are being prepared. The way to cook does an excellent job at showing you both... which is one of the reasons it is such an outstanding book.
Julia's other books are also excellent. Both "Baking with Julia" and "In Julia's Kitchen With Master Chefs" are outstanding.
One last word of advice... if you ever make A Fast Saute of Beef for Two from this book, use heavy creame instead of cornstarch (she says you can use either). The cream will make the difference between a good meal and a great one!
This is still a very, very good book. Unlike the more famous `French Cooking', this book is much more concerned with teaching the art of cooking. In fact, Ms. Child originates an idea here that has reached its fullest fruition in the style of Rachael Ray's 30-Minute Meal rubric. Ray succeeds in putting out fast meals not by using a lot of processed supermarket preparations, but by using knowledge of cooking to make the best of basic ingredients. This is not to say Ms. Child is doing fast cooking. Many recipes are pretty involved. I can still remember doing Julia's take on a barbecue recipe which involved making both a sauce and a rub from a goodly number of ingredients and a substantial amount of time required to slow cook the ribs. I got pretty hungary by the time I was finally finished.
Teaching is so important to the object of this book that it is one of the very few books I know which could easily serve as a good textbook for a course on cooking. The only other book I know in this category would be Madeline Kammen's `The New Making of a Cook'.Read more ›
I don't consider myself a gourmet. I am a good home cook who appreciates delicious, hearty food and I gravitate towards these types of dishes and chefs. By the time I read The Way to Cook, I'd already owned and read three or four cookbooks (all from the Silver Palate ladies) and I didn't learn about the process and intellectual thought of cooking until Child. Wow. She truly brings everything to its most basic point and then, tell you how to treat the food. Additionally, the book is organized well; written in a straightforward manner; and the recipes are simple to follow and delicious to eat.
True, this is more continental than it is American, but I think if you could only have two or three cookbooks, this would be one of them. The others would be Cook's Bible and Joy of Cooking (new ed).
One warning, like most cookbooks, the food is rich, so if you're on a diet, eat breakfast, make this for lunch or an early dinner and don't eat anything the rest of the day!

Case law
According to article 45 of the UEFA Disciplinary Regulations: "The UEFA administration publishes decisions issued by the disciplinary bodies. Where such a decision contains confidential information, the UEFA administration may decide, ex officio or at the request of either one of the parties or the ethics and disciplinary inspector, to publish an anonymised version."
A significant step forward has been taken with the 2013 version of the Disciplinary Regulations from the point of view of good governance and transparency. UEFA will now publish decisions issued by the disciplinary bodies in this section.
Every six months the leading cases passed by the Control, Ethics and Disciplinary Body and all the decisions taken by the Appeals Body will be published here.
©UEFA.com 1998-2015. All rights reserved.
Friday 18 September 2015 18.00CETThe UEFA Appeals Body has upheld the one-point deduction imposed on the Croatian Football Federation (HNS) and ordered that the HNS play its next two home matches in UEFA competition behind closed doors. The Appeals Body met yesterday, following an appeal lodged by the Croatian Football Federation (HNS) against the decision taken by the UEFA Control, Ethics and Disciplinary Body (CEDB) on 23 July 2015, in relation to the racist behaviour (Art. 14 of the UEFA Disciplinary Regulations) that occurred during the UEFA EURO 2016 qualifying Group H match between Croatia and Italy, which was played in Split on 12 June 2015. The appeal by the HNS was rejected, and the original decision of the CEDB has been upheld. The CEDB had decided to impose a deduction of one point on the Croatian Football Federation (HNS) for the qualifying competition of the 2014–16 UEFA European Football Championship. The HNS has also been ordered to play its next two home matches in UEFA competition behind closed doors, and ordered not to play any of its remaining qualifying games at the Stadion Poljud in Split. In addition, the HNS has been fined €100,000. This decision is final.
Friday 15 May 2015 16.12CETDisciplinary proceedings have been opened following the UEFA Europa League semi-final, second leg between FC Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk and SSC Napoli (1-0) played on 14 May in Kyiv (Ukraine). Charges against FC Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk: - Improper conduct of the team (5 cards or more) – art. 15 (4) of the UEFA Disciplinary Regulations (DR) - Improper conduct of the supporters: field invasion by supporters – art. 16 (2) (a) of the DR racist behavior (banner) – art. 14 and 16 (2) (e) of the DR setting off and throwing of fireworks – art. 16(2) (b) and (c) of the DR crowd disturbances – art. 16 (2) (h) of the DR - Insufficient organisation (stairways blocked) – art. 38 safety & security regulations. The cases will be dealt with by the UEFA Control, Ethics and Disciplinary Body on 21 May.

When Grief Turns to Fury
The parents of Jacob Stiles -- an SMU student found dead in December at the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity house -- are furious with the university, claiming it has done nothing to find out who provided their son with the drugs on which he overdoses. According to the Dallas County Medical Examiner's report, Jacob died of a deadly cocktail consisting of alcohol, cocaine and designer drug fentanyl, which is usually misidentified as heroin in toxicology reports but is significantly more powerful.
A few days after a similar story appeared in Dallas' Only Daily, the Stiles family tells their hometown newspaper, the Naperville Sun in suburban Chicago, that the university's doing nothing to stop drug and alcohol abuse on campus -- or find the kids involved in their son's death.
"I do not know how to tell you about the grief we deal with on a daily basis," Thomas Stiles said. "Jacob was not some random kid from Illinois bringing drugs into Texas. Now we know that the drug that killed our son may have been supplied by a member of the fraternity, and SMU seems to refuse to do anything about it."
Also according to the paper, SMU President R. Gerald Turner yesterday said SMU has has formed a Task Force on Substance Abuse Prevention. --Robert Wilonsky

Make no mistake, Herbalife and Carl Icahn seem to be cooking up a little something. What it is, and the reasoning behind it? We don't really have that yet. But, let's look at some of the possible options.
It was announced yesterday that Herbalife is changing the date of their general meeting of shareholders, "in order to allow the company to continue its discussions with Carl Icahn regarding potentially adding additional Icahn nominees" to the BOD:
Herbalife Ltd. (NYSE-HLF) announced that it has rescheduled its 2014 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders to now occur at10:30 a.m. PDT on April 29, 2014, in order to allow the company to continue its discussions with Carl Icahn regarding potentially adding additional Icahn nominees to Herbalife's board of directors. The meeting will be held at 800 W. Olympic Boulevard, Suite 406, Los Angeles, California
The Board of Directors, interesting. This was an issue that was never really a pressure point for Ackman until he pushed it on the last China call. We haven't really taken the time to stop and think about the immense amount of liability there is on the BOD if Herbalife is found to be operating in a fraudulent manner.
Not just fiduciary liability, but in the case of someone like John Tartol, potentially personal liability.
Ackman is a master strategist, and I found it to be a potent point of pressure for him to bring up the BOD and plant some seeds of doubt in the heads of people already serving on the Board. After all, if I were on Herbalife's Board, I wouldn't be sleeping very soundly, nor would I be happy about sharing a boardroom with John Tartol, as he's presented with checks that came directly from the pockets of impoverished minorities.
I found it interesting when Ackman highlighted this on his call, and don't think it's a coincidence that Herbalife came out with their AGM announcement just days later.
It was additionally focused on by Michelle Celarier in her article in the NY Post Business Section this morning. She pointed out that Ackman had sent letters to the Board reminding them of their positions and the accompanying liability, something I had heard of for the first time - yet another prong to Ackman's relentless approach. The article read:
The FTC probe was announced Wednesday, and the normally loquacious Icahn has yet to comment on it.
Icahn didn't return calls for comment on Thursday.
But on Monday, Icahn was on CNBC promoting the company and bashing his nemesis, Bill Ackman, and the hedgie's $1 billion short on Herbalife, saying Ackman's actions almost border "on the insane."
In a public presentation Tuesday, Ackman didn't mention Icahn but said he had written two letters to Herbalife board members warning them of their "enormous personal liability" if the company is found to be a pyramid scheme.
Which leads me to Icahn's appearance on CNBC on Monday. Listening to it again, and having been familiar with everything Icahn and Ackman have both said about Herbalife 1,000 times over; it really sounds like the first time Icahn could allude to possibly, possibly, backtracking. Further, he sounded annoyed when he barked about Ackman, but it almost sounded as if he was agitated with himself, interestingly enough.
But, back to the press release regarding the AGM.
(In story disclosure: I am not a securities lawyer and am simply making potential, unfounded predictions)
The timing isn't what's suspect per se - the DEF 14/D is due well in advance of the annual general meeting, so the number of options as to what this means are broken down, generally, into the following:
1. They needed to amend the DEF 14/D and needed 5 more days to do it. In the event that new board members are going to be nominated (or withdrawn) the document needs to be edited accordingly and inclusive of the bios of the new board members, as well as updates on the company's current share count and other items to be voted on by shareholders.
2. As a product of the buyback increasing the percentage of shares that Icahn now owns, he is entitled to more Board seats and the company is inquiring with Carl regarding that and possibly:
- Using it an opportunity to put out a PR with his name on it post-FTC announcement
- Simply asking him if he wants to take on the new seats he is entitled to.
3. Icahn, in true "I've simply lost my mind" fashion has decided he wants to double down against Ackman in the face against demonstrable evidence and actually place more BOD members in the face of an FTC investigation. Elderly people do quirky things sometimes - personal grudges fuel some stupid decisions. But, I've seen crazier things in my time on Earth. While the rational part of me had trouble understanding what Icahn was even doing in this trade without seemingly even knowing the ticker symbol, he remains long.
That same rational part of me is tugging at my brain, wondering why he'd be placing BOD members on in the midst of an investigation that I feel will yield materially negative consequences for Herbalife. But, I give up trying to be rational with Icahn and Stiritz.
4. The company or Carl Icahn will be using this PR as an "out," as we'd say in poker. Either the company has BOD members talking about resigning or Icahn wants to get his guys off the board and they're using this as an excuse to put shareholders on notice and on hold, while the dirty work behind the scenes takes place.
Final Thoughts
Lest we forget, if Herbalife is in fact buying shares back after this news to keep the price propped up, is that proper? Additionally, and not often discussed, if you were an Icahn Enterprises (NYSE:IEP) investor, isn't there liability to those investors that needs to be discussed by remaining in an Herbalife position?
One thing is for sure, something is going on behind the scenes, and if it's material we're likely to find out in the next few days, whether it's through an 8-K announcing departure or officers/directors or through whatever Herbalife puts in their proxy statement about BOD nominees.
Regardless, Herbalife remains a massive risk as an investment. As I highlighted in my article, "Herbalife at Risk: The FTC Can't Ignore the Demonstrable Evidence" yesterday, the FTC is not the type of organization that ignores the evidence:
When I think about the words, demonstrable evidence, this is exactly what I think of. These are the types of ad hominem attacks that the company and its longs have used during the duration of this affair. After Ackman's original thesis, it was clear that the company was acting in an extremely questionable manner. After a presentation like this regarding China, it continues to be crystal clear. the challenge for investors seems to be focusing on the evidence, and not the noise coming out of the long side of this argument. If I witness a crime and point out the evidence, and then the person accused of committing it calls me names and lashes out at me publicly, does that make the evidence of a crime any less potent as evidence at its core?
However, the FTC simply doesn't ignore evidence. They're an organization full of intelligent professionals who think critically, not based on headlines or PR. And, they're not the type of organization that would be looking into a company if there wasn't something that appeared suspect. So, something has already caught the ears of the FTC. As they look further, there's a chance for the whole ball of yarn to become unwound.
And evidence, despite what the longs will tell you, is what the shorts case is based on.
I remain bearish on Herbalife, added to my put position yesterday, and reserve the right to add, close, or change my position at any time without notice. Best of luck to all investors.

Silver Filled Circle 7/8"(22mm) with Heart, 24g
- Diameter: 22mm (.87")
- Heart Height: 5mm (.20") Width: 7mm (.28") lower corner
- Thickness: 24g
- Matching solderable heart is SS587.
- If you solder Silver Filled, it will cause the silver to bubble a bit and result in a reticulated look.
- Hundreds of times thicker and more durable than Silver Plated.
- Silver Filled is a thick layer of .925 Sterling Silver mechanically bonded to copper.
- Silver Filled is 1/10 or 10% by silver weight.
- Can be oxidized and polished just like Sterling Silver.
- Filling or sanding is not recommended as it may expose the copper core.
- If you solder Silver Filled, it will cause the silver to bubble a bit and result in the reticulated look.
- Anyone who can wear Sterling Silver can wear Silver Filled without an allergic reaction.
- To pop any additional holes in this blank, we recommend using the Screw Down Hole Punch, not the Hole Punch Plier.
- When punching with the Hole Punch Plier, you often need to file the back a bit. Filing might expose the copper core.
- With filled blanks, we recommend polishing with a Pro-Polish pad or tumbler.
- Do not use steel wool or sand paper on these blanks.
Our silver filled blanks are considered raw materials and may have some light surface scratches. A pro polish pad will take care of most of these imperfections. They have a micro-abrasive that removes surface blemishes and leaves the metal bright and shiny, maintaining that mirror-like surface. They are a must-have and safe for silver filled blanks. Or, you can give the blank a satin finish with fine steel wool. This is a great option that will remove the surface scratches and also helps mask fingerprints on your finished pieces.
In the process of counting all of our incoming shipments, we are also applying quality controls and removing any defective/damaged materials. If a deep scratch makes it past us, customers are welcome to return these for refund or store credit.

ICSC Launches Green Scorecard for Shopping Centers
The International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC) will next month offer shopping centers a way to benchmark energy, water, waste and recycling, and green operations.
With consumer expectations trending toward sustainable technology and products, retailers are also looking for sustainable locations and property owners are leading by focusing on how to reduce their environmental footprint and minimizing operating expenses, the world's largest commercial real estate association says.
The Property Efficiency Scorecard, designed by landlords, will allow property owners to benchmark their efficiency by inputting data — from one center, or an entire portfolio — online on energy use, water consumption, recycling and waste, and green operating practices. Users will be able to compare their center(s) to similar properties, and receive basic suggestions on how to improve performance, based on their results.
Enrollment for the scorecard will begin in January 2014, and payment is based on a $2,000 subscription per company and a fee ranging from $500 to less than $50 per center, depending on the number of properties subscribed.
ICSC estimates that more than 1,000 properties will benchmark in 2014, and as sustainability performance becomes an increasingly higher priority, ICSC anticipates this growing over the next several years.
Last week the Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC), whose member including Adidas, Burberry, Coca-Cola and Levi's represent more than a third of the global apparel and footwear market, launched an updated version of the Higg Index, a sustainability measurement tool for the industry's supply chain.

Yemenite move to US sparks Israeli ire
Only 400 Jews are left in Yemen
The emigration of 113 Yemenite Jews to the United States over the next few weeks has opened up a rift between Zionist organisations and the Jewish American leadership.
The Zionist groups argue that the Americans should not be encouraging Jews to move anywhere other than Israel, while the Americans insist that Israel does not have a monopoly on resettling Jews.
The Yemenite group is headed for the anti-Zionist Satmar community in Monsey near New York. The Satmars, together with United Jewish Communities (UJC), are facilitating their emigration, together with the US State Department.
One senior Jewish Agency leader, speaking off the record, said that the rift is part of an ongoing argument. "The Jewish American leadership is not Zionist. They were quite happy to have Iranian Jews come to live in California and South American Jews in Florida. Our biggest argument was in the 1980s over the freedom of choice for Jews from the Soviet Union.
"They didn't want to encourage them to go to Israel and changed tack only when they realised how much it would cost them to finance the range of services that Israel was prepared to offer to the Olim."
The official Jewish Agency response was more measured, saying that the Agency "believes that all Jews from countries in distress, including the Jews of Yemen, should immigrate to Israel. This is especially the case when the alternative is moving to live in a segregated anti-Israel community in the diaspora."
Avinoam Bar-Yosef, head of the Jewish People Planning Institute in Jerusalem, said that he did not believe the UJC had a non-Zionist agenda. "There are many there who are totally committed to Israel," he said, "but I think that bringing these Jews to the Satmars is insane. There is a successful Yemenite community in Israel that can help them. I don't think this was well thought out."
Bobby Brown, a former advisor to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu on diaspora affairs and a Jewish Agency veteran, said that "the UJC had an obligation to do everything in its power to bring this community into the Jewish consensus and into Israel. Realising that we are talking about a situation of clear and present danger to them, it is a problematic decision. They had to be innovative and work in co-operation with Israel. If they did not raise all the possibilities or work with the government, then they have made a mistake."
Many in Israel believe that if the UJC had taken the Israeli government on board from the start, and enlisted other religious movements instead of the Satmars, the Yemenite Jews could have been offered sufficient incentives to bring them to Israel.
Officials in Jewish organisations, both American and Israeli, who have worked with Yemenite Jews in the past, say that the Israeli government shares part of the blame.
"The government wasn't interested in such a small group of very religious Jews," said an official who preferred to stay unnamed. "The current aliyah apparatus wasn't geared up to take care of such a group and they just fell between the cracks. Now everyone is up in arms because Satmar got there first."
The UJC spokesman in Israel, Dani Wassner, stressed that the UJC still "supports aliyah to Israel in every way but we also respect the right of any Jew to decide where he wants to live and support their freedom of choice".
…while plans for a UK rescue stall
A plan to bring Yemenite Jews to Britain to escape persecution from Islamist extremists has stalled.
Members of London's strictly Orthodox community met with Immigration Minister Phil Woolas in March to discuss bringing around 120 people to Stamford Hill.
It was thought they would arrive in Britain in April, shortly after Pesach, to be reunited with relatives who have already left Yemen.
But their departure has been delayed by protracted negotiations between the Home and Foreign Offices and the Yemenite government.
Chanoch Kesselman, executive co-ordinator of the Union of Orthodox Hebrew Congregations, said that threats to Yemenite Jews had continued in the form of grenade attacks by local tribesmen and extremists. Last December, yeshivah teacher Moshe Yaish Nahari was shot dead.
"At least one cheder has now closed and people are scared of getting together and congregating in large groups.
"The Home Office and Foreign Office are well aware of the situation and are very sympathetic, but it's not easy to get these people out.
"It's one of the oldest Jewish communities in the world and the official Yemeni government policy is that the Jews are part of the country's history. They want them to stay."
He said it was hoped their move, to be funded by private Charedi donors, could take place during the summer.
The majority of the country's 400 Jews live in Raydah, around 50 miles north of the capital, Sana'a. Many are reluctant to leave until compensated for their property.

An easy-reach pull-back handlebar and riser package, lowered suspension, extended kickstand and exclusive integrated luggage rack make the Softail Deluxe an even more functional ride.

The Micro Chargers Light Up Speedway from Moose Toys puts a new twist on the popular micro-mini racers by adding the excitement of lights to racing. Moose has redesigned the vehicle charger this year to feature a switch to charge, rather than having to hold down a button. This has made it much easier for small hands to manage.
Charge your race car in the charger then push the button to launch it onto the track. The racers in this new series feature built-in LED lights, so, when charged, they will light up as they speed around the track. The track, itself, also glows in the dark for more excitement.
The Micro Chargers system offers great, classic play that keeps getting better with these new innovations. Plus, the sets can be integrated to make unique racer tracks and new racing experiences.
The Micro Chargers Light Up Speedway is for ages 5 and up.
Two AAA batteries are required but not included.
This set comes with only one racer. Others are sold separately.
Make sure the track is set up on a level, hard surface with the supports positioned so the corkscrew turn works correctly.
We also noticed that while the car lights up, as the charge dies down, the light fades. Simply charge it up and start again.

It is amazing how things have changed in such a reactively short time, especially now with so many people using smart phones which are more or less portable mini computers providing instant personal access to the internet and social networking sites.
Many companies employ several people to do nothing else but 'work' their Social Networking connections as a marketing tool but of course, one-off small businesses, like us and so many other holiday cottage owners, have no one to fall back on and it is one more thing to add to the daily agenda. However, as someone who loves people, talking and writing, I am finding i really rather enjoy it and the danger is the risk of spending too much enjoyable but entirely unproductive time as far as social marketing goes. I like the communication, am much less happy abut the marketing/selling which actually, with only two cottages already with a big loyal following, hardly seems an urgent priority. Also, quite significantly, there is for John and me the now rather old-fashioned but nevertheless deep mistrust boasting, bragging, swanking, showing off, call it what you will.
However, we are always aware of the danger of getting left behind, admiring what laurels one can muster or being hindered by outmoded inhibition, so in an attempt to smarten up the act I have enrolled for some Social Media training and through unfortunate management have two sessions this coming week, one day after the other. In the preliminary chat with one trainer, he expressed shock that our Tom's and Douglas's Barn page only had 73 'Likes' and was unimpressed when I said that they were practically all genuine 'Likes' from guests and friends. The point is that if one's page is too tiny one can get completely lost in the rankings, and nobody much gets the chance to read one's news, or to see John's photos as we sink into social oblivion.
So that is the first challenge, to extend our network by getting more people to like us… You can see why one cringes! But in case you genuinely would like to like us, and are on Facebook yourself, please do so and preferably before Wednesday so I can hold my head a little higher when I meet this trainer on Wednesday.
Thank you!
We got married at Parwich Church on 16 September 2016 at 12noon so now are Mr and Mrs Roebuck. We had our reception at Tissington Hall followed on the Saturday with a Garden Party at Orchard Farm. Great celebrations lasted for 3 days. Here are a couple of photos
Due to unforeseen circumstances Tom's Barn is now available 24 June to 1 July 2016.
Douglas's Barn is available to book for short breaks 3 or 4 nights between 2 and 20 May 2016. Bookings usually start on a Monday or a Friday but if you want a break that starts on a different day get in touch. We are very flexible with bookings.

During a press luncheon at the automaker's historic Dearborn Proving Grounds, Ford officials were joined by representatives of the Consumer Electronics Association to talk about the company's growing list of in-vehicle offerings.
"Nothing is more important to the future of our country and the future of our industry than innovation," said Gary Shapiro, president and CEO of the Consumer Electronics Association, who moderated a discussion on connected vehicle technologies.
• Ford Work Solutions integrates computer into vehicle
• Ford CEO to again speak at Consumer Electronics Show
• Rinspeed sQuba: The car turns deep sea diver
Jim Buczkowski, Ford's director of electronics and electrical engineering, said the key to the Sync platform is that Microsoft's hardware platform allows Ford to add new applications through updated software.
In fact, the platform allows Ford to give its owners software updates after they buy the car and without visiting a dealer, said Doug VanDagens, director of Ford's Connected Services Organization. Owners can go to www.SyncMyRide.com, download the latest updates to a USB thumb drive and install them in the car themselves. In the future, Ford could send such updates directly to the car through satellite or via a cellphone.
Steve Koenig, an industry analyst for CEA, said consumers have made it clear that they are willing to pay more for the latest technology. In fact, Ford says that Sync-equipped vehicles move much faster off dealer lots than those vehicles that do not have Sync.
Buczkowski said that one of Ford's goals is the "democratization" of technology. That means keeping the price down so that the features can be spread across the automaker's lineup.
But Koenig said consumers don't want technology just to say they have the latest thing. For example, he said that surveys show that when asked if they want the Internet available in their cars, consumers give lukewarm responses. But if you ask them if they want searches for the nearest Starbucks and then directions to get there or a connection to facebook, they become more enthusiastic.
"The Internet is about a lot of information that can make your life better," Koenig said.
But the speakers also said that while being connected is great, technology is also helping make cars safer. Recently introduced legislation in the U.S. House would ban texting while driving, but some critics want to go even further and ban all in-vehicle communications, including hands-free systems such as Sync.
Buczkowski said that Ford supports legislation banning texting while driving. The company is continuing research on driver distraction but it believes systems such as Sync are the answer to the problem.
"What we find is keeping the eyes on the road is the most important thing," he said.

Government to protest all territorial incursions
Rabby Pramudatama
The Jakarta Post
All foreign aircraft flying into Indonesian territory must report to local air-traffic authorities, otherwise the government will file a protest of border infringement, a top security officer has said.
Coordinating Political, Legal and Security Affairs Minister Djoko Suyanto said Indonesia would protest whenever a foreign aircraft breached its territory.
"If a breach occurs, we will gather field data, both visual and digital. Then they [records] will be used to file a protest," he said on Thursday.
The minister made the comments in response to media reports that Australia may allow the US government to use Cocos Islands for a spy-plane base. The islands are just 3,000 kilometers southwest of Jakarta.
As long as they did not encroach upon other countries' territory, Djoko said, both Australia and the US had sovereignty to do more or less as they wished for the sake of their countries' defense.
Given its vast territory, however, it is felt that Indonesian borders will inevitably be breached as the US has sophisticated, virtually undetectable drones. Also, the US has not ratified the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), which could enable it to take advantage of Indonesia's territorial gray areas.
Deputy Foreign Minister Wardana said any decision to file a memorandum of protest would be based on Indonesian Military (TNI) data.
"A memorandum of protest would be filed by the Foreign Ministry based on information from the TNI and the Office of the Coordinating Political, Legal and Security Affairs Minister," he said.
He said an incursion of territory usually occurred when there was conflicting information about the actual position of foreign aircraft along the borders of a country's territory.
Air Force chief of staff Marshal Imam Sufaat told The Jakarta Post that increasing US military activity in the northern part of Australia was not a threat for Indonesia. "We have a good relationship with the United States, so we do not need to worry."
Meanwhile, several institutions responsible for the country's air-traffic control have been coordinating with one other to formulate an integrated air-traffic management system.
The Foreign Ministry, Transportation Ministry and the TNI have agreed to allow foreign aircraft intending to enter Indonesian airspace to do so with only one permit, issued by the Transportation Ministry.
Previously, three permits were required: First, flight approval from the Transportation Ministry; second, diplomatic clearance from the Foreign Ministry; and last, security clearance from the TNI.
Aside from the permit, Djoko said, all information regarding flights by foreign aircraft would be collated in an online system so that all three institutions could access the information quickly.
Transportation Minister Lt. Gen. (ret.) E.E. Mangindaan told the Post that the ministry was already involved in developing an integrated air-traffic management system but stressed the need to upgrade the skills of its human resources.
Indonesia faces a great challenge in upholding its border security, as some areas of the country are not covered by radar. Ideally, all territorial regions should be equipped with radar that is able to monitor a radius of up to 1,000 kilometers.

Gene Therapy Shows Early Promise for Heart Failure
By Amy Norton
HealthDay Reporter
THURSDAY, Feb. 21 (HealthDay News) — When it comes to treating heart failure, the ultimate hope is to develop a therapy that repairs the damaged heart muscle.
Now, an early study hints at a way to do that by harnessing the body's natural capacity for repair.
Heart failure is a chronic, progressive condition where the heart cannot pump blood efficiently enough to meet the body's needs, which leads to problems like fatigue, breathlessness and swelling in the legs and feet. Most often, it arises after a heart attack leaves heart muscle damaged and scarred.
In the new study, researchers were able to use gene therapy to modestly improve symptoms in 17 patients with stage III heart failure — where the disease is advanced enough that even routine daily tasks become difficult.
What is novel about the tactic, the researchers said, is that the gene therapy is designed to attract the body's own stem cells to the part of the heart muscle that's damaged. The hope is that the stem cells will then get some repair work done.
The findings, published Feb. 21 in the journal Circulation Research, are preliminary, and much more research needs to be done.
"This is a proof-of-concept study," explained lead researcher Dr. Marc Penn, a professor at Northeast Ohio Medical University in Rootstown, and director of research at Summa Cardiovascular Institute in Akron. But Penn and other heart failure experts said they were cautiously optimistic about the therapy's potential for at least some patients.
Stem cells are primitive cells that can develop into different types of body tissue. Adults have the cells in their bone marrow, and they give rise to blood cells. Researchers have also found that individual organs in the body, including the heart, have their own pools of stem cells.
Those stem cells may try to repair damaged tissue, but they are not all that successful, Penn said. So his team sought to give the stem cells a helping hand. They infused patients' heart muscle with three different doses of a drug that carried a gene for SDF-1, a natural protein in the body believed to recruit stem cells to sites of tissue damage.
Lab research has suggested that after a heart attack, SDF-1 activity in the heart goes up — but only for a short time, Penn said. The goal of the experimental therapy is to enhance SDF-1 and draw more stem cells to where they are needed.
The initial results are promising, Penn said. The approach seemed safe, with no major side effects linked to the treatment. Two of the study patients died within a year, but the deaths were deemed not to be connected to the treatment.
Among the 15 patients who were alive one year later, there were improvements in their symptoms and walking ability.

Behn There, Done That: Echo Theatre Sets an Antique Farce in the Swingin' '60s
What's it all about, Aphra? Echo Theatre continues its season of plays by 17th century wit Aphra Behn with the Restoration farce The Lucky Chance, or The Alderman's Bargain, directed by René Moreno, running one more weekend at the Bath House Cultural Center.
Behn (rhymes with "rain") is regarded as England's first woman professional playwright. Like her other plays, The Lucky Chance deals with young women rebelling against marriages of convenience and longing to be with their true loves; Behn made the case for romantic love in an age when girls were often forced to wed geezers out of financial need.
Such is the case of pretty Leticia (Martha Harms), dreading her wedding night with old Sir Feeble Fainwood (Bradley Campbell). She's married him after believing his lie that her lover, young Bellmour (Austin Tindle), has died in Ireland. Another young beauty, Lady Julia Fulbank (Laura Alons), is hitched to crusty Sir Cautious Fulbank (Adrian Spencer Churchill), though she's really in love with handsome Mr. Gayman (Brandon Sterrett).
The Lucky Chance
The play's antique language takes some getting used to, despite the cast's remarkably crisp delivery of lines such as Sir Feeble's "Ads bobs, but they frighted me at first basely. But I'll home to Pupsey, there may be Roguery, as well as here." Moreno and his actors make excellent sense of the dialogue's corkscrews and curlicues, though, and hit the comedy right on the nose.

Moreno's also added the clever conceit of setting the play in the swingin' London of the 1960s. Characters stop with the funny talk and lip sync old pop tunes by Herman's Hermits and Dusty Springfield that layer additional commentary on the action. (Choreography by Sara Romersberger draws mainly on ye olde go-go steps like "The Jerk" and "The Watusi.")
There hasn't been a better looking show on the Dallas boards this year. Scenery by Clare Floyd DeVries covers the little Bath House stage in the shiny stripes of the Union Jack, with lots of doors and a hideaway bed among the levels. The cute-as-crumpets actors are dressed in expertly fitted '60s fashions designed by Ryan Matthieu Smith. Harms' Leticia, hair swooped into a shiny bob, thick eyelashes brushing her cheeks, could be Julie Christie in Darling. Alons' Lady Julia wears a sleek Sassoon-style wig and Pucci caftans. As Mr. Gayman, Sterrett resembles Jude Law's natty playboy Alfie. Other characters, fops and fools mostly, look like Austin Powers, Andy Warhol and Judy Carne on Laugh-In. Campbell wears a polyester suit the color of lime sherbet, bellowing hilariously as Sir Feeble, as lovable a lecher as any Shakespeare ever wrote.
It's all tremendous fun for about two hours. Then The Lucky Chance keeps going for another 45 minutes. That's too much of a good thing. It really is OK to edit these old scripts. Who'd know the difference?

Sunday evening so hotel restaurant not open and the snacks on offer did not appeal. Staff directed us to a great restaurant 10 minutes walk away. A good last night for our trip to Northern Spain
