Location description from owner
The England region
The Old Robin Hood, is located within easy reach of Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall and various other historic halls.
There are many easy walks to Baslow, Hathersage, Grindleford - with a few good eating stops on the way, Grindleford Station Cafe, Fox House, Grouse Inn, The Royal Oak and several in Hathersage too.
On Mondays there is the famous Bakewell market - where you can buy fresh veg, meat and other country fayre items.
There are lots of activities for children in Sheffield - if the weather isn't great for walking - Magna, Sheffield Millenium Galleries, the Peace Gardens to name but a few.
Chatsworth Estate hold many events during the summer - it is worth looking at their website. Longshaw Estate is part of the National Trust and is a nice walk from the house, Padley Gorge is a nice 8 mile walk across the moors and down along the river.
The Peak District National park has plenty for everyone. You can even do unusual sports such as paragliding in Castleton
Holmesfield: Holmesfield Holmesfield is a Parish based around two centres of population; the village of Holmesfield itself, and the hamlet of Millthorpe. It is made up of a number of farming hamlets situated above the Cordwell Valley.
The village is very pleasantly situated in a highly respectable neighbourhood and contains several very genteel habitations. The Parish extends beyond Owler Bar to the West and towards Dronfield to the East.
The centre of the parish is marked by St Swithins parish church, which was built in 1826, which can be seen from almost all of the surrounding areas. Amongst the local amenities are eight pubs, (including The Angel Inn, Horns Inn, Travellers Rest Inn and the George & Dragon) and a number of restaurants; both a football and cricket pitch, a village hall (that can be booked by members of the public) and a host of groups and societies to accommodate many an interest, and the parish's most recent addition, the Vicarage was added in 1999.
Areas of Interest within walking distance: Fanshawe Gate Hall in Holmesfield is one of the most popular private gardens in north Derbyshire. It combines traditional cottage garden planting with magnificent topiary and water features. Holmesfield's important buildings are Holmesfield Hall, dated 1613, with additions built in the 18th century, and Woodthorpe Hall, a large 17th century, gabled manor house, dated 1636.
Peak District: The property overlooks the Peak National Park - where there is an abundance of things to do. Every activity you can imagine is available in some shape or form. Over 22 million people visit the Peak District every year and when you get here ..you'll know why. If you are a keen walker - a guide can be arranged a very reasonable fee to arrange day walks taking in some of the finest views in Europe! Just let the owners know in advance.
If you are interested in off road mountain biking then there are plenty of tracks. Hathersage village (7 miles away) has a great heated outdoor pool that is open from April - end September and is definitely worth a visit. Chatsworth House is 6 miles away and is a must visit!
Other Activities: Close to Chatsworth House, Hathersage, Bakewell, Haddon Hall and many other historical points of interest

We had a wonderful weekend stay at the Old Robin Hood with friends for a 40th Birthday. The cottage was fully equipped and the owner was very friendly and helpful. We would highly recommend he cottage and would definitely use again for future get togethers. We are all missing the underfloor heating since we got home!
"Well equipped house in an idyllic location."
We stayed here for 2 weeks with extended family ranging from 8 months to 60 years old. Very well equipped house which really did cater for all our needs. Outstanding views in an idyllic location. Easy access to Sheffield and surrounding areas in the Peak District with a variety of activities to keep everyone entertained.
"Great weekend away for 14"
14 of us stayed at the cottage for the bank holiday weekend and had an absolutely amazing time! We were attending a wedding in Baslow about 10 minutes down the road on Saturday and Sunday so most of our time was spent there, however in the time we did spend at the cottage we made full use of all the facilities- Stunning view from the garden (pictures attached) and had great fun in the hot tub. The big dining table was perfect for all getting together and having a meal - and also for a good game of beer pong!! Pool table, table football, and board games were all also made use of. Thanks for having us Aoife - we would definitely love to return!
Owner's reply: Glad you had a great time. Hope to see you all again soon.
"Loved the garden"
We stayed here as a group of friends on a weekend walking trip. The house was as described, and ticked all the boxes for us. We especially enjoyed the garden and hot tub and games tables. The large lounge and kitchen was perfect for a large group, and was well equipped. We had no complaints other than slow running drains, which the owner promised to look at after our departure, as it wasn't possible in the time we were there. Other than that it was great! The owner was easily contactable and although away, checked in with us by phone shortly after our arrival to check if there was any problems that she could arrange to be sorted.
"Absolutely beautiful, breath-taking views, cant wait to return!"
11 of us stayed at the robin hood from the 16th – 18th May for my hen party and absolutely loved it. The house is beautiful and the views from the garden are incredible. I miss sitting at the dining table looking out over the countryside, really didn't want to come home. We had everything we needed for the weekend and the kitchen was more than ample to cook in. The house is located a 10minute drive from burbage where we went walking on the Saturday and had lunch at the fox house pub which was delicious. Another 15minute down the road is castleton which is a lovely little town which we also visited. We went into Sheffield for one evening which is around a 20minute drive away, cost £16 in a taxi for 6 people. We played table football, pool, table tennis and went in the hot tub on the Friday night which was perfect for a girly night in. Cannot think of anything to complain about at all, phone signal was pretty poor which you expect in the countryside but you could always get on the wifi in the kitchen and in some of the bedrooms. Wifi wasn't great in the lounge but this wasn't really an issue as we could just go into the kitchen if needed. The house was perfect for my hen do as it is located in the beautiful countryside however many towns aren't too far away to drive to so we had the best of both worlds. Please don't contemplate booking this place out for your holiday, you will not regret it. I hope to return again next year
Owner's reply: Thank you for this lovely review and for sharing your recommendations for walks etc with others it is great for those who follow. The 400 year old walls do make the wifi challenging in some rooms sometimes but as you say the kitchen is best locaition! We look forward to welcoming you again..perhaps next time as Mr & Mrs. Best of luck for your big day.
"Great family gathering house"
Stayed here for a family birthday, chose this because it has 5 double bedrooms with one of these and a bathroom on the ground floor for an older relative. Location is great, with lovely views, walking distance to several pubs and restaurants, really close to gorgeous countryside, or rugged moors for walking, pretty market towns to explore like Bakewell, Buxton and Matlock. House is about right for 10 people and a few kids - good sized lounge with log burner and high beamed ceiling, large dining area with views over the valley, attractive and well equipped kitchen, 5 good sized bedrooms with comfy beds and 3 bathrooms. The pool table and table football were great, as would have been the hot tub in the courtyard, but it was unseasonably cold so we weren't able to use it. Nice extras like two fridges, lots of family games, a supply of logs and kindling, plastic cups and plates for outdoor eating etc. The temperature dropped suddenly when we arrived so we weren't warm enough in the lounge (as its such a big room) on the first day or two but the owner was fantastic about sorting this out and giving us some fab electric heaters until the central heating had caught up, it was really cosy after that. The house was really clean and tidy but there were some maintenance issues with things that needed painting, fixing or replacing but they weren't major and perhaps it was a sign of it being the end of the summer season. Would be great to stay here in the depths of winter providing you had plenty of supplies in, as well as in summer when the outdoor spaces and hot tub would be fantastic fun.
Owner's reply: Just a quick update on this review; The house has been completely re painted since this review, a job that we do annually as well as constantly touching up during the year.
"Hen do - Amazing"
The house is amazing! We went there on a hen do and the house was great. Perfect location. Large kitchen with everyhing you need. Cosy bedrooms. Large bathrooms. Hot tub = perfect! Could not want for anything else!!!!
"spacious and well equipt."
A awsome time from start to finish, thirteen members of our family and two dogs, shared a lovely break in the old robin hood. With plenty of room to sit and relax, comfortable beds and three bathrooms no one felt on top of each other, the children especially enjoyed the table football and space in the garden, we all enjoyed the hot tub and lovely view. The kitchen provided all the equipment we could possibly need on our stay, and everyone could fit around the large dining table easily. With lots of interesting places to visit within a short car journey and some lovely long or short walks nearby we never had a dull moment, we can't wait to visit again!
"Perfect property for a relaxing, fun hen do with my friends and family"
I booked the Old Robin Hood after looking around the internet for quite a long time in search of the perfect venue for my hen weekend. I wanted a nice relaxing weekend where I could spend time with my friends and family in great surroundings. The Old Robin Hood was everything I had hoped for. The building is gorgeous and very well equipped. We catered for ourselves the whole weekend and there was everything w could need. Aoife the owner left us loads of towels to use and all the beds were lovely and comfy with nice fresh white bed linen. The hot tub at the back of the house was great and really nice and warm despite the amazingly strong winds! The house is at the top of a hill and I think it must get the wind a lot of the time, this didn't spoil our enjoyment of the garden or the hot tub and BBQ. There is a table large enough for 16 people which was great for us to have our murder mystery party around and a TV and DVD player for when we were chilling out on the last night. I would really recommend this as a venue for a celebration or a large group or family holiday. The surrounding area is gorgeous and has so many things to do. Aoife and her family were lovely and friendly and ensured we had everything we needed.
Owner's reply: Thank you so much for your lovely review. Hope to see you all again.
"An Excellent way to spend our 30th's"
What can I say.... AMAZING!!!! This property was absolutely perfect for celebrating several 30th birthdays in one. Great size for us all (11) and was fully equipped with everything we could want, plenty of glasses, crockery and cutlery as well as places to relax (lounge), dine and bask in the sunshine around the hot tub. Aoife was really helpful in the run up to the weekend, allowing us to have a look around before, and then when we were there, checking we were OK, but certainly not in our faces. We hired a karaoke machine for our 80's themed Saturday night party, to which there was plenty of space, even using the dining area as our stage. All this was topped off with the hot tub, clean and replenished with hot water when needed, was the cherry on top, and we all spent lazy days and relaxing evenings in there. Thank you Aoife and the Robin Hood from Kelly and all the girls (Chesterfield) xxxxx
Owner's reply: We are so glad you had a great time, thanks for taking the time to review the property and your kind words! Hope to see you again, for next birthday!

Providence Hospital, Washington, DC
ARDS is a major public health problem in critically ill patients,with an incidence between 16%–18% of all ventilated patients in the ICU, and a mortality rate of 30–40%.We sought to determine if elevated cardiac biomarkers could be used as a prognostic indicator for mortality&morbidity in ARDS.
Retrospective analysis of ICU-patients diagnosed with ARDS according to ATS/ERS guidelines, who had at least 48-hours ICU stay, at least one cardiac biomarker measured, and did not have chronic lung disease, previous acute-MI during the same admission, and previous palliative care orders. Charts were reviewed for demographics, admission diagnosis, CKMBI, cTnI, outcome, ICU-length of stay, number of ventilator-days and number of organ-dysfunctions. Sample was divided into four groups: NCB–Normal Cardiac-Biomarkers, EcTnI–elevated cardiac Troponin-I( > 0.59ng/mL), ECKMBI–Elevated CKMB index ( > 5, with-CK > 200), and ECB–Elevated Cardiac Biomarkers (any one of cTnI or CKMBI). The groups were then compared for mortality and morbidity indicators.
51 ARDS patients met the criteria. They were all African-American (100%), 28 females (55%). Mean age was=62.3, mean ICU-length of stay in days was=18.4, mean ventilator-days: 15.2, and mean number of organ-dysfunctions was=1.6. 22 patients died (43%). Cardiac biomarkers were normal in 30 subjects (59%) (NCB group) and were elevated in 21 (41%) (ECB group). 15 subjects (29%) had elevated CKMB index (ECKMBI group) and 21 (41%) had elevated troponin (EcTnI group). For EcTnI and ECB groups: mortality, ICU length of stay, number of ventilator days, and number of organ dysfunction were: 42.8%, 17.1, 15.2 and 2, compared to 43.3%, 19.4, 15.2 and 1.4 for normal cTnI and NCB group (p-values 0.973, 0.443, 0.998 and 0.081 respectively). Analyzing CKMB index, the ECKMBI group had mortality, ICU length of stay, number of ventilator days, and number of organ dysfunction 46.6%, 17.9, 16 and 1.9 compared to 41.6%, 18.6, 14.7 and 1.5 for normal CKMB index (p-values 0.742, 0.826, 0.459 and 0.208 respectively).
Our study showed no statistically significant correlation between elevated cardiac biomarkers and mortality or morbidity in ARDS, therefore elevated cTnI or CKMB index do not reflect an increased risk of death or prolonged hospitalization in ICU.
Cardiac biomarkers cannot be used as a prognostic indicator in patients with ARDS.

Oh, the joy that is the written word!
I write, because if I didn't, I'm quite sure I would explode. I am the sort of person who is always scribbling down random sentences or bits of poetry on every available surface, which I can never seem to find when I want to revisit them and flesh them out into an actual story.
I am notorious for writing while stopped at red lights or on the backs of my Wal-Mart reciepts.
Sites like this one, and the soon-to-be defunct Ficlets, are my saving grace, because, although I love to write and do it almost compulsively, I hardly ever finish what I start. And it's sad to see all these character sketches and plot details just float away. I love that in these sorts of places I can lend them to somebody who will take them in and give them a good home.
I am very much enjoying Protagonize, finding that this site has a lot of the features that Ficlets was lacking.
Anyway, I'm not really sure if I'm supposed to be writing about myself or about BARomero, who tagged me.
I first came into contact with BARomero's work on the lovely little frenzy called Ficlets, which I am sure you Protagonizers are probably sick of hearing about by now. He was a part of the Billy Joel Posse with me and Laine Grey, haha.
On a more serious note, BARomero was always there to leave a nice comment and also much-needed constructive criticism. Most notably, he took a little one-shot Ficlet I wrote, called The Pulse, and totally ran with it. Watching that story evolve was wonderful. He had so many great ideas and characters to offer that I never could have dreamed of when writing the original piece.
Other Ficlets authors have also greatly influenced my work, and given me the drive and desire to keep on writing and improving. Although I haven't seen them on Protagonize (or even on Ficlets, which I've admittedly been neglecting these past few months), T. F. Torrey and YodaOnCrack both had wonderful writing styles, and I held their opinions in very high regard. Additionally, Ana Christina, whose poetry is so beautiful it makes me insanely jealous. :) And, John Perkins, who was always, always, always there with positive encouragement.
It's quite difficult, because I can't figure out who has been tagged and who hasn't. So, in return, I tag LaineGrey, member of the Billy Joel Posse and writer of wonderful fantasy and satire, and SaintChuck, who always has something interesting to say and was at the top of the Ficlets ladder for quite a long time.

Man sentenced to almost 150 years in prison for armed robbery spree
NEW BERN - A man was sentenced in Craven County Tuesday to 146 years in prison, for a string of armed robberies in Raleigh.
In addition, the federal judge in New Bern ordered 23-year-old Antonio Rashaad Dovine, of Raleigh, to serve five years of supervised release and pay a restitution of $7,590, said U.S. Attorney Thomas G. Walker.
According to prosecutors, Dovine, along with co-conspirators, robbed an Exxon gas station, at 1200 New Bern Ave. in Raleigh, on April 14, 2011. The thieves attacked a clerk and a customer.
Later that same day, the thieves robbed a McDonald's restaurant, at 5016 Spring Forest Road in Raleigh, investigators said.
Then, on April 22, 2011, Dovine and his co-conspirators robbed from a Hampton Inn, at 1001 Wake Towne Road in Raleigh, according to prosecutors. Money and an employee's laptop were stolen.
Five days later, the thieves robbed the Wingate Inn, at 2610 Westinghouse Blvd. in Raleigh, investigators said. During that heist, Dovine hit a cashier in the face with the butt of a shotgun, according to police.
Finally, on May 3, 2011, Dovine and his co-conspirators tried to rob a Family Fare BP gas station, at 2120 New Bern Avenue in Raleigh, investigators said. But no money was taken in that incident.
According to investigators, guns were used in all the robberies.
Dovine was found guilty on Nov. 16, 2012 of the following charges:
- One count of conspiracy to rob a business engaged in interstate commerce
- Five counts of aiding and abetting the robbery of a business engaged in interstate commerce
- One count of attempted robbery of a business engaged in interstate commerce,
- Six counts of aiding and abetting the use of a firearm during a crime of violence,
- Three counts of felon in possession of a firearm

Note: Detailed survey results can be found in a SlideShare presentation at the end of the post.
Being active, engaged and successful is not an easy task. From the moment we open our eyes, until we fall asleep exhausted at night, we seem to confront a never-ending list of urgent tasks: taking out the trash, preparing lunch for our family, rushing to business meetings, checking our email on the fly.
And even when we should be relaxing, we are not. As true representatives of a multitasking society, we are watching a movie and thinking about what we have left unfinished at work; getting our nails done and nervously tapping our feet, in a constant hurry by default. Ironically, it's precisely this downtime – most often called ME time – that helps us recharge and face all our responsibilities.
The .ME crew is made of experienced professionals who know all about the challenges of achieving work/life balance. We came to an idea – start a ME Day movement – a day when we will make time to celebrate our achievements, embrace our uniqueness and put ourselves first. With that in mind, we conducted an informal ME Day Survey that included 753 respondents living in the USA. We wanted to see how much time people devote to themselves in order to ensure their physical, mental and spiritual well-being!
This is what we found out!
Only one in 10 people consider themselves a master juggler when it comes to balancing their professional and private life. On the other side of the spectrum, the number of people that consider their life out of balance is doubled (20%).
8 out of 10 of respondents stated that they feel stress around finding work/life balance. The best companies to work for have programs and policies that help their employees with balancing their professional and personal demands. Unfortunately, sometimes even that is not enough; because while we are high-achieving project managers at work, we don't seem to manage our own lives.
Most of us feel stressed because we are always in a state of constant hurry. There may be lots of moments in our daily lives that we could enjoy, but we miss them because we are so focused on what comes next.
The sunrise is beautiful, but not so much when you are stuck in traffic. The streets of your city are full of life, but not so much when you are late for a meeting. Seem familiar?
It's shocking that the majority of people (30%) make time for themselves only once or twice a year! Only 20% of people make time for themselves every three of four months, while most alarmingly 20% of people never take a ME day.
This practice must change! Independent research shows that quality ME time is very important to our well-being. No matter how stressed we feel, by intentionally practicing activities we enjoy, we can recharge our batteries and neutralize the effects of stress on both our body and mind. People who enjoy regular ME time report its positive effects on their state of mind, indirectly improving the quality of their relationships and performance at work.
The number one reason for not taking a ME time, given by close to 70% of respondents, is the fact that just we don't have the time! Let me tell you something – you will never be less busy. People surrounding you will never need you less. But if you want to be there for them long-term, you have to start being there for yourself. Don't just sit and fantasize of how nice it would be to go on a phone-free picnic with your family – do it! Don't think just wistfully about that interesting book – go ahead and read it. Make the time – no one will do it for you!
The number two reason is feeling guilty – feeling like we are being selfish if we put ourselves first. Here it's important to consider how other people will benefit from our ME time. By doing things that will make us healthier mentally, emotionally and physically, we will be more resilient, more patient and more positive when interacting with other people. There is a reason why the flight attendant reminds you to put on the mask first and then do the same for the others. Make sure you are here for the people you love long-term by putting your mask on first.
Other reasons for not taking a ME Day – most often it was the problem of not having enough funds. But ME day is not about spending large amounts of mone. Sometimes it isn't about being alone or even about taking the entire day off. ME Day is about making time to do something that will make us happy and fulfilled – be it cuddling up with a book, taking a warm bath, going window shopping with your sister, perusing a museum, or just ordering a pizza and watching the whole season of your favorite TV show. It's all about little things in regular intervals that will allow us to give our brains a break, be present in the moment, and breathe deeply.
It makes us very happy to see that majority of respondents found the idea of a ME Day and the cause of me worthwhile. One of the questions in our survey was whether respondents would be interested in having a holiday that would be all about celebrating ME and promoting the importance of taking care of ME. About third of respondents were unsure about the idea (we hope to have them convinced by now), but nearly 50% responded with a resounding "Heck yeah!".
At domain .ME, our mantra is: "Like any hero, you deserve a day when your achievements will be celebrated, uniqueness embraced, and wishes fulfilled. And you are a hero – every time you take care of your family, contribute to your community and follow your dreams!"
Join us in raising awareness about importance of self-appreciation, celebrating our successes and taking care of ourselves by spending quality ME time on March 16th, and tweeting about it with #MEday hashtag!

Technology has afforded employees of all types more flexibility to obtain work-life balance. In my opinion, the same flexibility and work-life balance is also available for those who work in self-managed teams. People thrive when they have the opportunity to be part of something where they feel their voice, skills, and abilities are making a difference at their workplace. Self-managed teams may provide more work-life balance than companies that do not use this type of team work. The benefits and advances in technology at work and home have ensured there is no need for work-life balance to suffer.
It has been my observation that it is often the manager that sets precedence as to whether employees will adopt new things such as flexible work schedules and other work-life perks. If a manager does not utilize any of the work-life perks that the company offers but, instead works long hours including overtime and does not lead by example, then the employees will not feel safe to use the work-life perks either. Hopefully, managers and employees alike, are learning that having work-life balance is a trend to stay and promises a more fulfilling life both at work and at home.

Robert Pattinson
Uma Thurman
Christina Ricci
Printer-Friendly version
The movie is essentially a period drama about Robert Pattinson screwing his way through France. There's no real shocks or unexpected twists, so you can probably tell by the logline whether or not this is a movie you'd be interested in. Based on Guy de Maupassant's 1885 novel, BEL AMI is a smutty tale of high-class power marauding as a soap opera. It's not a love story in any way, though. The main character is purely a social climber. He doesn't sleep with or marry women for romance; he does it for money, status and even spite.
Perhaps that's the reason the Pattinson is just an unlikable prick in this movie. His Georges Duroy is nearly a sociopath in how he treats people. He's creepy, conniving and smug and things get more and more ridiculous as the film progresses. It's almost fun to see how much more of a dick this guy can be to everyone, but Pattinson's acting (and constantly constipated face) is too uneven to keep you rooting for him. Even with solid sultry turns from Uma Thurman, Christina Ricci and Kristin Scott Thomas as his main lady loves, this is not a fun or exciting movie to watch. Instead of scandalous, it just comes off as flat and forgettable.
Extra Tidbit: Nicole Kidman and Marion Cotillard both turned down roles in this movie.

Competition for Valentine's Day trade has driven the cost of a dozen red roses down to less than £30 in some cases.
The reduction in price comes as internet firms take on supermarkets and independent florists. The website flyingflowers.com is offering a dozen roses for £29.
However, for those who want to make an impression with their wallet, there is still plenty of oppotunity.
Notting Hill's Wild At Heart will supply 12 blooms, long-stemmed with berries and foliage, for £125 (£10.41 a rose) plus delivery charge.
The price war comes as separate research by Mintel reveals three-quarters of Britons believe Valentine's Day is too commercial. David Clements, marketing director at Tesco.com (12 roses for £31.83), was sympathetic.
"Many companies deploy cynical tactics to hike up the price, with unwanted vases or chocolates accompanying flowers which customers can't opt out of," he said. "Buying flowers should be a simple, quality way of expressing one's feelings."
Despite this the survey found passion undimmed, with a quarter of men preparing to send roses, and two-thirds of people planning a romantic gesture.
A growing trend is sending flowers to the workplace, even if, as this year, they arrive a day early. Mr Clements said: "Canny men have learned the objects of their affection enjoy the envy of workmates who see a dozen red roses delivered to their desk."
Psychologist Louise Raggett agreed, saying: "Women often enjoy the attention afforded by public displays of affection. For men, it can also make a subconscious statement to other men which says 'hands off, she is with me'."

We check in with John Farrell for an online exclusive interview... bumped today because of the Hernandez arraignment, we checked in with John on Middlebrooks, Iglesias, instant replay, the bullpen woes, Clay Buchholz and more.
Transcript - Not for consumer use. Robot overlords only. Will not be accurate.
Are -- and -- WEEI WEEI dot com is well on a course out of Fenway Park today. Suffered early getaway day game for the Red Sox 4 o'clock game Rockies in for the last of two. Nice win for the Sox last night John Carroll joins us fresh from what when he hits or so last night. Felt like a ton of them were the other way is that part of the planners just work out you know Mike I think. Would we see our guys use the whole field stay inside some pitches and get some base it's the other way that's one more at our best this is the a group that. You know that they're gonna see a lot of pitchers against -- ball deep in the strike zone and I think base it's the other way our our product of that. There were number -- you know we found some holes last night let's let's be honest and when days are going well you're gonna get some breaks but I think the same time. We squared up a number of bases their base hits you know that you look at Tony -- attack in addition to five. Walks. Who we had a very good offensive night. And it could have been better off at the night. You know look we know Major League Baseball umpires at times this year have struggled with replay. Public is Stephen Drew hit it was award he was awarded -- triple look like a home run to me how much you mean even after the fact is that a home run. Well you know and there's two things that come -- come quickly come to mind with that one when you see the trajectory the bounce after it hit and you wouldn't necessarily see a ball. You know bounced straight up in the air and then come back into the field of play without hitting something behind the wall but. It was clear the length of time that it took to review that play I don't think that there was a clear cut angle that the the umpires had. You know replays and in place for for a reason and they did everything that they could to see different angles but whether that. The good definition of the video that they have at their disposal wasn't clear and off. But I think in the broadcast that seem like they blew up a couple of shots and it's show that it had a piece of plywood behind the ball right. So cameraman was pointing to it well -- out -- well unfortunately he's not what the umpire crew so. You know. Again weathered it. Thankfully. In that situation it didn't have a direct impact and and bearing on the outcome of the game so. You know I know that replay it's always in the minds of many and how does it continue to advance and become better more refined. But I do on this and talking the umpires. They have they only have what they have here in the ballpark in its about a sixteen inch monitor that they look at so. Their ability to blow it up to get real close up view is limited. So anyway that fastest animal or deal with but at least we have a system that's currently place. To be used and now imagining the onto isn't like an old he black and white TV with the you have -- -- on the bottom and it's at the eight on HD either hit that thing to make sure they can -- well enough yet tin foil would be -- -- that you get as. Made the decision before the game yesterday to send down will middle Brooks. How do you balance. A -- like how do you balance the long term development needs. With current performance and what you needed the big league level -- well Mike the current. Performance put us in the position we're in you know woke him off a strong rookie campaign last year with the even though -- five games played still. You can't deny the numbers and and what he put up the impact he can make in baseball the skills that he has. The fact is that 2013 was a little more of a struggle -- things and come as easy and then we got a young player Jose Iglesias. Who is you know collecting two to three hits a night competition does have a bearing on who plays and when when will found himself and we found with will on the bench you know five and six days. He's not at this stage of his career to be a bench player and we had to get Saturday at bats that's why isn't hard to imagine I was an image of sophomore slumps at times or maybe just the league. Adjusting to -- player is that what has happened to middle Brooks does he need to make a specific adjustment back to -- well. Good question. You know the one thing is -- will swing probably isn't as consistent as the was. A year ago. And and the benefit of a player coming up in the middle of the year in his first season he's gotten -- has been afforded to get on that role fundamentally. It's -- from a confidence standpoint prior to him come into the big leagues that was the case last year. What first full season players Bahrain is getting on that role early in the season is much more challenging you're going up against better pitching every single night. So what they. Experienced the year before I coming up in that first year -- it's a complete different set of circumstances a much more difficult environment. And I think that's that's what the the sophomore situation of people referred to was about. Know John I'm sure we're gonna gamble later in the year Mohegan Sun we have that -- and a passed on better. But I wouldn't gamble earlier than that and the gamble right now and say that Jose Iglesias will not be hitting over 400. In September I'm gonna take that gamble but something is happening. What is is it just. -- he figured it out is it something he is he looked at video and he he does he's seen the light on the what is. Well there's a couple of things to work here he came back in the spring training a very motivated player. In his mind. And this is the beauty of sports is the beauty of of how guys respond to certain challenges. He was very clear he didn't. Hit it the way he took -- Stephen Drew he took it as a personal challenge. And that's -- -- Stephen Drew that's not him being antagonistic towards your organization but he felt like he was a guy that was ready for the big leagues. Numbers might not a book borne that out or or prove that or or supported it. But the way he viewed himself one was a competent player that was ready to play in the big leagues. The organization felt differently. Signs Stephen Drew he came in. Got back to it a natural swing that was more aggressive inside the -- -- not looking to steer the ball around around the field and try to hit the ball the other way or or being an inside out type of hitter. So -- went back to a natural stroke. He got he got a break. Stephen had the concussion he gets off to a decent start here with us you know he was in for -- whatever the first couple weeks -- -- -- -- and I think that further boosted his confidence. He went back down and he took it as a pro you know people -- you know. How to really respond to what Stevie came back he was professional he took it well. Now he did go down and and still felt that the time is a big league player and I think some things got in his way but Garrity assertion that the great job with him in Pawtucket. Sat him down for a couple of days to kind of reviewer was that in the fact is he was into talking on the big leagues but he comes back here and he's using the same stroke. We've seen every at bat with a much more consistent approach where is not expand the strike zone so you combine that with confidence. A more natural swing that he's used that over the course of his own playing career. And we're seeing the benefits and production from -- had he been coached away from that natural swing I don't I don't think coach the way you know we have a very clear organizational. View of our hitting style and we talked about it at the outset of this is that she pitches use the whole field. But sometimes as players are looking to make some adjustments. They can go. Too far with the and I think it's just a -- centering for what Jose is going through right now is to get back. To that aggressive stroke but at the same time he's hitting pitches whether thrown inside the strike -- we've seen a number of balls that are driven into the right center field gap last night was another one. And gets a breaking ball inside part of the plate he drives it a double into the left center field gap so. He's doing an outstanding job on both sides of the -- forced. Was it difficult to get him settled on on a consistent approach because we saw him at times last year last couple years. Where every time he came to the plate the batting -- a little different. Eat he had a different game plan seemed every time he came to play. I think that's just a player understanding who he is what makes himself. The most consistent performer he is a little bit more operate in the stance. That was evident right from the first day of spring training and what it's allowed him to do see the ball better I think he got down deep in a crouch whose -- more bent over. And when your eyes are parallel to the ground it's gonna give you a different view of the flight of the baseball coming into the strikes on -- -- you know what that this is all Jose he's done an outstanding job of you know what realizing who he is is a player getting back to some of those natural abilities that have taken them or brought him to go to the Red Sox in the path they traveled. And these and it's played out in front of him and in front of us each and every night with I mean he's getting two or three hits every single night and it's it's awesome to see. Red Sox manager John Farrell weather's always brought you by our ability insurance town fair tire. And celebrity cruises let's turn to your your pitching staff where at least at the -- rotation. It's novel we were discussing in April Jon Lester at the time was it was perfect. Clay Buchholz at the time was perfect and in those two guys look like aces. Now one of them and you got to see Buchholz draw from mountain they wanna ask you about that. The first what what is going on with Jon Lester spent six or seven starts now in a row or he's not in the same play. Well one thing nor seen as a city two out situations have given him some troubles. You look at the number a number of runs allowed in those situations and and really you're got you started into an inning that is 20/20 five pitches in length. And it's not physical -- stuff is still consistent with the way he was pitching in April may. And yet there's some missed located pitches deeper in that inning. That have allowed some of those crooked numbers to take place and it it whether it's elevated fastball that's a breaking ball it doesn't get to the right spot so. Do the sit down conversations in the exercise that we go through John. So when you get into those situations where the inning is unraveling. There needs to be the ability to step back regroup. Understand where you are an and that might be pitching around a guy to manage a lineup in certain way or that has to make sure that we're not rushing into a situation. The other day that is the prime example as we get two outs. You know Pena the description catcher for Detroit gets a base hit he gets Jackson out to make it through the second out of the inning. Torii hunter's the next next hitter is an 02 count I thought he kind of rushed through the situation to try to get over with the out in the inning. He gives up an 02 base hit in the first pitch changeup -- Cabrera is a three run homer. It's not the home run to Cabrera. That guy's gonna get his hits it's what leads up to that situation that I felt like there was. -- a rush job to get through the inning rather than taking the same. Pitch to pitch approach to shut the inning off and put a zero up on the -- And just continuing the theme of of guys who were struggling a bit what's your breakdown of Andrew Miller. And Andrew Bailey was what was in the big issue with those guys. Well what with Bailey -- see you know the one thing that we're still trying to to get back Tuesday. Is the life to his fastball threw strikes on and that's a physical thing he went on the disabled list. By it and missed the two weeks with this when he's come back. Who we haven't seen the same power particularly with his trademark pitch and that's a fastball up in the strike zone. In I think the fact is that the hitters went in looking for something up out over the plate. And they didn't necessarily have to respect -- breaking ball for strikes so there's two things. Trying to get him down the strike zone with more fastball location and more importantly get a breaking ball over for strikes. Just to slow some hitters down and not them going in looking for one pitch and just. Turn it loose and really not even offered a breaking ball we've seen that a few times and and that's the point of emphasis that we're we're going through Bailey right now. We can't control when that life in the -- bowl return he's not hurt he doesn't complain of any soreness or any any restrictions from a physical standpoint so. That's the the area there Miller on the other hand what we've seen. Outings of dominance where it's been right and a left and it doesn't matter. And he's still going to be a very. Little guy late in the game for us because not only can he match up but he's got to believe -- from right handers out with the the fastball slider combination. In. You know guys are gonna ebb and flow a little bit with their performance put it in Bailey's case particularly. When when we've got to a state of flux with -- closer it changed the roles of everybody leading up to that and where you -- has been so dominant in that seventh and eighth inning depending on the matchups. We now remove him as our closer and put him in the back -- the -- so it's gonna him. Provide an opportunity for other guys to step up and really bridged the gap to you are closing games out. You know Mike and I had a discussion a few weeks ago about the things in sports that that drive you crazy as a sports fan. And and we had a number of options went out with a holding penalty in football or. It you know third and short you can kick it off the field. -- another one is walking the bases loaded and I'm wondering for you as a sports fan big sports fan and as a manager. If it's being up -- Q for the pitcher. And then as as Miller did the other day he's -- it to hit the guy brings in a run. That's got to be one of the things you can get I need to go into a dugout for a little bit and -- -- go to the clubhouse. And away from the cameras then I'll come back. Well you take it out of sixteen partner -- -- -- right okay who here thinks of as your pitchers are gonna give up base a total to. And 02 counts. What what you probably holding a little bit more is how hard is a ball. That's to me there the whole keep his ball squirt up an 02 count woman you know what we've probably really an error. Drastically with the location pitch. You know I know the other day they're trying to he'd go down and in on the pro also -- -- -- to count bases loaded were up around at any Nixon in the knee. And it's. You know -- the the thing that you it in the moment you're looking for the kill shot in that spot. But when you take a step back and realize that OK in the key moment you. In an 02 count you've got four opportunities to retire that guy and it doesn't necessarily always have to happen now. There's there's there's there's a reason why they call a certain pitcher purpose pitch it sets up the next one weather's changing eye level change in the the view to the hitter. In advance of the the put -- -- and expressed. That's where the second guessing really comes into play in the case like that. Or. The frustration can really now when you've got a hitter that is down and you've got sole advantage form and you let him back into a situation by making a mistake when you look a year. Open more as a whole. You start off the year you lose Joel Hanrahan Andrew Bailey goes out for awhile and right now -- -- kind of struggling doesn't have the same life on the fastball. Pat to continue to use to -- when you are over and over again and it sort of wait for some other guys it would appear to prove themselves and higher leverage situations. How do you balance that how concerned are you about their usage. Well in both cases anytime -- have multiple runs like last night to we were fortunate to it to get a little bit of a spread and stay away from -- is our new. Frequent use because of the stage in his career. And the willingness to pick up the policy get him going because she's been so good force as has. I Junichi. Puts it the -- the one thing that think you know it really shines through is that the need for that closer to be a constant. 88 dependable guy back there really shines her because all the sudden now were were on our fourth -- of the year. And it does change roles for guys and part of that group down there particularly from the seventh inning on. The mental lead up to that and they understanding where their time in the game is coming and they think along with us in the dugout they prepare accordingly. They know when their time is coming in in when that is change everyone goes through a little bit of a shift there. It might be for the you know the casual fan might say well you're -- just go pitch that. When called upon and some people take that view but I think it's very important like I -- to be able to think along with us and prepare best he can both mentally and physically. Right time now John for Mohegan sun's dinner with John -- contest today's question for the manager comes from -- -- he's from New Bedford. He wants to know and that's going to be tough for him. Who has been your most coach a bowl slash teachable players this season guess they all had to pick one. Cultural slash. I'm. You know. And I don't wanted to ride the wave here but when you see what Jose Iglesias has done he's transferred positions to go to third base a position he's never played in his life. I'd -- always been shortstop but to see him make that transition work that he's done with Brian Butterfield defensively. But the questions he asks. Not only of the coaching staff but of his teammates. There's been a genuine. -- a better term a genuine engagement on his part to now we go through crash course but realize that he's played a pivotal position force. Defensively. And then what he's done on the offensive side he's taken all the suggestions and sometimes they're not the easiest ones to give him because you confront some things with the player. In Jose has been very receptive and more importantly the way he's responded. It's been great for all of us to -- before let you go real quick and you -- -- Colts the road today off a mound what did you see from them how soon could we see him well. We'll get a better read on and how it feels after the bullpen but the having seen in the balls and out of his hand Gooden we felt like there was going to be the need of two bull pens at a minimum before we get him out on what it's going to be a rehab start at some point hopefully in the near future here. But I think the most encouraging thing he's gone from long tossed a flat ground to not getting on the mound. Read read or incorporating the angle mound which is gonna add some different stress to the shoulder and the other areas. Of the body so today -- -- today was just a very good step in the right direction so hopefully we've got some my more clear cut plan with his. Returning to us here later today are an afternoon Red Sox game today that John Carroll brought you by our belly insurance town fair tire and celebrity cruises thanks so much -- appreciate it okay guys talked and actually.

Despite a difficult history, Scotland and England have approached their modern differences within the democratic process with Scottish nationalists sweeping recent parliamentary elections but Israel has chosen cruel repression toward the Palestinians leading to a very different result, says ex-CIA…

How to Install and Setup Asterisk 13 (PBX) on Centos 7.x
Asterisk (PBX) is an open source communication server released under the GPL license maintained by Gigium and Asterisk community. Asterisk is used for creating communication applications that turns an ordinary computer into a communication server. So, using the Asterisk in your network environment, you can connect your employees from home to the office PBX over broadband connections and can also give them voicemail, integrated with Web and E-mail.
The benefits of using Asterisk are too much, so let's follow this tutorial to setup your own Asterisk server whether in your home, office or in your organization and enjoy with its great features to fill communication gaps.
Asterisk Prerequisites
As we will be using CentOS 7 for Asterisk setup with minimal installed packages, so make sure that your system is up to data and you have root user privileges on the system for the installation of different required packages.
1) System Update
You can use below command for system update after successful root login.
#yum update
2) Installing Required Packages
Once your system is patched with latest updates, you have to install some packages including development tools and other packages that are necessary for its successful operation. You can easily do this by using the below command that will install its all required packages included all dependencies.
[root@centos-7 ~]# yum install gcc gcc-c++ php-xml php php-mysql php-pear php-mbstring mariadb-devel mariadb-server mariadb sqlite-devel lynx bison gmime-devel psmisc tftp-server httpd make ncurses-devel libtermcap-devel sendmail sendmail-cf caching-nameserver sox newt-devel libxml2-devel libtiff-devel audiofile-devel gtk2-devel uuid-devel libtool libuuid-devel subversion kernel-devel kernel-devel-$(uname -r) git subversion kernel-devel php-process crontabs cronie cronie-anacron wget vim
Check the list of packages that are going to be installed on your system and press "Y" to continue, this will take about 125MB of your disk space.
After successful operation you will see the list of installed packages and updates including all its required dependencies.
3) Setup MariaDB
After installation by default we can connect to the database without using any password. So, first we will enable/start mariadb services as shown in below image, so that we can setup its root password.
Once the MariaDB services are fine , run the below command to setup its root password and remove anonymous user, test database and disallow remote user login.
[root@centos-7 ~]# mysql_secure_installation
4) Installing libjansson
Jansson is a C library for encoding, decoding and manipulating JSON data. Let's download, unpack and compile it using the below command.
# wget http://www.digip.org/jansson/releases/jansson-2.7.tar.gz
To extract this package use below command.
# tar -zxvf jansson-2.7.tar.gz
Then change directory and configure the package as shown.
5) Make Jansson
Now to compile the configured package we are required to use below 'make' and 'make install' command within the same directory to compile fully functional Jansson library.
[root@centos-7 Jansson-2.7]#make clean
[root@centos-7 Jansson-2.7]#make && make install
[root@centos-7 Jansson-2.7]#ldconfig
Installing Asterisk 13.5.0
Here we go with most important download that is Asterisk. Let's download its current latest package from their official web link Asterisk Download Page. We will be using 'wget' command to download its package, so change your current directory and run the command as shown below.
Using below commands unpack its package, change directory and then run its configuration command .
[root@centos-7 ~]# tar -zxvf asterisk-13.5.0.tar.gz
[root@centos-7 ~]# cd asterisk-13.5.0
[root@centos-7 asterisk-13.5.0]# ./configure --libdir=/usr/lib64
Upon successful completion of asterisk installation you will find its logo as shown below.
Asterisk Modules Setup
Now in the next few steps we will configure Asterisk for its necessary modules.
1) Asterisk Main menu Selection
In order to setup your menu items, let's run the below command and then choose the appropriate options.
[root@centos-7 asterisk-13.5.0]# make menuselect
Once you run this command, a new window will be opened where you can will see that for the most part , all the necessary modules are already included . You can add something or remove, when you select a module there is a brief description of its purpose. In the Add-ons to enable mp3 support module select 'format_mp3' as shown below.
Then move to the next Core Sound Packages and select the formats of Audio packets as shown in the image.
Then select all the packages from the "Music On Hold Packages" and then form the "Extra Sound Packages choose the 4 that includes a first module containing EN and the choose the "Save and Exit" button to proceed for the next step.
2) Loading mp3 Libraries
Now run the following command to download the mp3 decoder library into the source tree.
[root@centos-7 asterisk-13.5.0]# contrib/scripts/get_mp3_source.sh
3) Modules Installation
Now we will proceed with installation of selected modules using the 'make command'.
So, Asterisk has been successfully built, now run the command as shown in the image to install asterisk.
[root@centos-7 asterisk-13.5.0]# make install
In response to the above command you will be greeted with below put at the end of nstallation.
+---- Asterisk Installation Complete -------+
+ +
+ +
+ Asterisk has successfully been installed. +
+ If you would like to install the sample +
+ configuration files (overwriting any +
+ existing config files), run: +
+ +
+ make samples +
+ +
+----------------- or ---------------------+
+ +
+ You can go ahead and install the asterisk +
+ program documentation now or later run: +
+ +
+ make progdocs +
+ +
+ **Note** This requires that you have +
+ doxygen installed on your local system +
Here we will run the below commands to install sample configuration files as indicated above.
[root@centos-7 asterisk-13.5.0]# make samples
[root@centos-7 asterisk-13.5.0]# make config
Setup Asterisk User
You can create a separate user and give him the right to work with Asterisk in order to start its services with its own user and group. To do so let's run the below command.
[root@centos-7 asterisk-13.5.0]# useradd -m asterisk
[root@centos-7 asterisk-13.5.0]# chown asterisk.asterisk /var/run/asterisk
[root@centos-7 asterisk-13.5.0]# chown -R asterisk.asterisk /etc/asterisk
[root@centos-7 asterisk-13.5.0]# chown -R asterisk.asterisk /var/{lib,log,spool}/asterisk
[root@centos-7 asterisk-13.5.0]# chown -R asterisk.asterisk /usr/lib64/asterisk
[root@centos-7 asterisk-13.5.0]# systemctl restart asterisk
[root@centos-7 asterisk-13.5.0]# systemctl status asterisk
Setup Firewall Rules
Now begin to set up security. By default on CentOS 7 instead of iptables uses the FirewallD.
Using below two command you can start and enable the firewalld services.
[root@centos-7 ~]# systemctl start firewalld
[root@centos-7 ~]# systemctl enable firewalld
Now allow access to the ports that are being used in asterisk PBX by adding the following rules
[root@centos-7 ~]# firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=5060/udp --permanent
[root@centos-7 ~]# firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=5060/tcp --permanent
[root@centos-7 ~]# firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=5061/udp --permanent
[root@centos-7 ~]# firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=5061/tcp --permanent
[root@centos-7 ~]# firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=4569/udp --permanent
[root@centos-7 ~]# firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=5038/tcp --permanent
[root@centos-7 ~]# firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=10000-20000/udp --permanent
To load new firewall rules, use the below command.
[root@centos-7 ~]# firewall-cmd --reload
To confirm that all rules had been added , you can by using the command as shown in the image.
Setup Asterisk Database
Let's connect to the MySQL MariaDB and create new user and database then provide it all privileges using the following commands.
[root@centos-7 ~]# mysql -u root -p
Enter password:******
Welcome to the MariaDB monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MariaDB connection id is 11
Server version: 5.5.44-MariaDB MariaDB Server

MariaDB [(none)]> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON cdrdb.* TO asterisk@localhost IDENTIFIED BY '******';
MariaDB [(none)]> flush privileges;
MariaDB [(none)]>
Launching Asterisk
Launch Asterisk for the first time after its setup on Centos 7 using below command.
[root@centos-7 ~]# asterisk -r
Asterisk 13.5.0 (PBX) has been successfully installed on CentOS 7 with its required modules. If you find any mistakes in the article or inconsistencies we would be grateful if you write to us about it in the comments.

Good job (y)
why do you install mariadb?
Nice, thanks for save of my time!
Thanks for great guide, I tried to install 13.07 version with your same procedure, but I do not find any tables under cdrdb and asterisk databases.
Here my question is should I create tables manually anything?
thanks in advance.
Awesome walkthrough!
Just one thing I would like know to do after that. Install the gui (web-based) on the CentOS.
Thanks again.
I want to install and configure GUI asterisk. Everything is fine as per me. But not able to login from browser. I already set the username and password on manager.conf file but not working.
And I am confused that asterisk needs some DB or it has internal db?
Excellent article thanks - got me through an install of v13.8.0.
A couple of minor points:
Installing Asterisk
"tar -zxvf" command is missing the tar filename
Setup Asterisk User
I found that I could not connect to asterisk (asterisk -r) if running as 'asterisk' user. Worked fine when running as root. I received this error "Unable to connect to remote asterisk (does /var/run/asterisk/asterisk.ctl exist?)". Indeed asterisk.ctl was owned by 'root'.
I also found that "chown asterisk.asterisk /var/run/asterisk" failed as the directory is not created until asterisk starts (perhaps those two problems are related?)
MySQL DB
The tables are empty after starting asterisk - I assume there is some further config required to actually use the maridb with asterisk?
This article really helped me get started and I will keep plugging away :)
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `../main/modules.link', needed by `asterisk'. Stop. make: *** [main] Error 2
i am facing this issue
please help
Good afternoon , I want to implement asterisk but they know if there is a web application that suits the asterisk to configure the annexes to the same page , you send reports and statistics ?
Thank you
Thank you very much! very helpful
It is not running as asterisk user
[root@voip-gw asterisk-13.10.0-rc3]# systemctl restart asterisk
Failed to restart asterisk.service: Unit asterisk.service failed to load: No such file or directory.
i got this...
did anyone encounter the same?
Thanks so much for this PBX Centos 7 tutorial. We are always looking for good code to help us with our development to maintain the site. This is very helpful.
Brilliant tutorial, did not get a error while installing.
when i put make i have this line at the end:
make[1]: *** [chan_iax2.so] Error 1
makefile:384 : The recipe for the target <> echec
make: *** [channels] error2
Great easy article the only issue is before asterisk -r I found you need asterisk -vvvvvvc to start asterisk or you get an error ( these directions were repeated many times with the error and googled the solution and it works and the CLI then works)

Erm, I got a question. Was this an accident?
"Little Izumi entered the house and, after greeting Izumi, ran through an open archway into her playroom."
This was a line near the end of the chapter. I don't think Izumi was in Takuya's house, was she?
I love this so far. I hope you keep going.
