The plight of traditional northern markets continues to make the headlines.
The Northerner has recently focussed on the difficulties facing markets in Mexborough, Wakefield and Leeds - and now traders in Hulme, Manchester, have vowed to fight for their businesses after learning more than half the stalls at their market face closure.
The Manchester Evening News reports that stallholders at Hulme Market were told most of the market hall will be turned into a large discount store – with some given just a week to vacate.
More than 20 small businesses currently trade at the market, but the new development will leave room for just eight.
Kirkgate Market 'won't be ignored'
As I reported last week, the revised £600 million Eastgate Quarters development - which aims to transform the run-down north-eastern quarter of Leeds centre into a sea of shops and restaurants - was granted outline planning approval by city councillors.
The new development is partly based next to Leeds Kirkgate Market, which has recently faced a number of struggles surrounding its future. Local group The Friends of Leeds Kirkgate Market recently expressed concern over the impact of Eastgate and its 'ruinous and unfair' competition and objected to the development.
Although the council approved the plans, the Friends are taking solice in the fact that their objections have, at least, been heard at the Civic Hall. In a post on the Friends' blog, they report that the market 'won't be ignored' at the detailed design stage of the Eastgate project.
Leeds Kirkgate Market is the largest indoor market in Europe.

Alton very welcoming and helpful. Lovely room and facilities in a quite street just of the main road. 200yrds from DLR station. 400 to centre of Greenwich. I recommend and hope to stay again soon.
We had a perfect stay at Altons place in Greenwich.
It was nice and clean and Alton explained everything very nice ;)
Thank you Alton!
Enjoyed our stay at this nice room in lovely Greenwich London. Alton is a perfect host, he showed us around in the neighbborhood. The room is 5-10 minutes walk from the station (train&DLR). Tip: by train LondonBridge is only 8 minutes.
Greenwich is a very nice place with a lot of sights to visit. It's a peacefull, green area and with his naval/maratime background not to be missed.
The room is clean and tidey. Same goes for the shared kitchen and bathroom.
In the future when we visit London we will stay at Alton's again.
We really enjoyed our stay in London. Alton is a very nice and helpfull host. It was a pleasure talking with him. The appartment is very well situated close to the Greenwich Station in a quiet area.The room was comfortable and tidy, the kitchen and bathroom very clean.
Too bad we didn't have enough time to visit Greenwich, but it's very easy to walk out for a drink or dinner from Alton's appartment.
So, go ahead !
Alton was a very accommodating host. The room was tidy and clean, and we had a great stay.
Last saturday we stayed at the room of Alton; we really appreciated his flexibility towards our arrival time late at night. The room was very tidy and cosy, with bathroom and kitchen on the other side of the hallway. We met Alton at the other morning, he's really nice host.
Alton è un ospite impeccabile! Non era la prima volta che alloggiavo da lui e come sempre era li al momento concordato per il check in e ci ha accolti e fatti sentire come a casa nostra! la stanza e tutta la casa in generale sono in perfetto stato, ottima pulizia e tutti servizi sono efficienti.

Recognized leader in the field Gaetano Assanto outlines the peculiar characteristics of nematicons and the promise they have for the future growth of this captivating new field. A pioneer in the field presents the first book on nematicons, spatial optical solitons in nematic liquid crystals Little more than a decade after they were first demonstrated, nematicons have become an important area of research worldwide. This wide-ranging introduction is the first comprehensive collection of scientific work on optical spatial solitons in nematic liquid crystals, where they have been observed at powers of the order of milliwatts or lower, and have shown remarkable and peculiar features as compared to solitons in other media. Nematicons: Spatial Optical Solitons in Nematic Liquid Crystals features information on the background physics and relevant mathematics as well as numerical modeling, experimental approaches and results, and applications. It combines a review of the field with a considerable amount of original material as well as background information on liquid crystals. This one-of-a-kind resource: * Explores nematicons' nonlocal features, including their modeling, and experimental results on their mutual interactions * Deals with models and numerics on light localization and spatial solitons, with emphasis on nematicons and their guiding properties * Discusses experimental as well as theoretical work on nematicons and their trajectories, which can be modified in various ways and in several configurations * Illustrates the physics and properties of nonlinear reorientation and thermo-optically localized waves * Underlines the role of electronic nonlinearities and their synergy with reorientation in nematic liquid crystals, pinpointing the possibility of spatio-temporal solitons in these materials Complete with a vast bibliography of all the existing work in spatial solitons in nematic liquid crystals as well as actual photographs from experiments, Nematicons is a valuable tool for scientists, students, and scholars working on light localization and solitons, as well as on nonlinear optics in liquid crystals.

MADRID (AFP) – Police in Spain have arrested a 20-year-old alleged con man who embarrassed the establishment by posing as a bigwig and even got himself photographed shaking hands with the king.
Fresh-faced and curly-haired, the sharp-suited wheeler-dealer Francisco Nicolas Gomez Iglesias – known as "Little Nicholas" – has appeared in photos in the press alongside a string of top political figures.
His crowning exploit was to sneak uninvited into a reception for the proclamation of King Felipe VI in June, when he was photographed in suit and tie, bowing and shaking the monarch's hand.
Police arrested "Little Nicholas" last week, accusing him of passing himself off as a government advisor and asking a top busi-nessman for a 25,000-euro (US$31,000) commission to act as a go-between in a real estate deal.
One person who had dealings with the suspect, Miguel Bernad of the far-right pressure group Manos Limpias, said Gomez had held a dozen meetings with him posing as a representative of the royal palace.
He said Gomez offered to mediate in a lawsuit the association is waging against the king's sister, Cristina.
"He seemed totally credible to me. He had cars, bodyguards. It didn't seem like a bluff," Bernad told AFP.
Gomez's lawyer Israel Paz said on the radio that his client "never impersonated anyone, because he always acted under his own name". Paz has since stopped talking to journalists about the affair.
Among the personalities Little Nicholas has managed to rub shoulders with are Spain's conservative former prime minister Jose Maria Aznar and Rodrigo Rato, the former head of the International Monetary Fund.
He reportedly collected pictures of the meetings, publishing them on Facebook and showing them off to impress people and make contacts.
"The photographs were his tool. He turned up for business meetings with his photo album," according to El Mundo, one of the first newspapers to report on the affair.
In the case of the royal reception, the palace has insisted Gomez must have been brought in by one of the official guests, but it remains unclear who might be responsible.

One day in late March I turned on the television looking for a weather report and happened upon Matt Lauer and the rest of the Today crew perched in front of the Vatican Palace in Rome, covering the inaugural Mass of Pope Francis.

So much of the anxiety, stress, and turmoil we experience comes from our lack of faith in the universe. We believe that we need to make everything happen and plan every detail to feel safe. We live our lives controlled by outcomes and future plans. In fleeting moments we reconnect with the flow of the universe, such as when we're feeling serene on a meditation pillow, gazing at a still lake in the midst of a walk, or sweating it out in a yoga class. Fleeting moments of connection remind us of our truth. But what would life be like if we always remembered that we were being guided? More

Say you are presented with an exercise where someone asks you to draw a map of your home. You would likely start with your front door, or maybe a simple outline of the framework of your house. Once you divided the space with walls, doors, and rooms, you would start fleshing out your map with furniture, maybe starting with your bed, and even adding a bit of character and color. However, what would be missing from this map, no matter how much time you spent, are the pockets, or possibly mountains, of clutter that exist in your house. More
We've all been in spaces that feel sacred and serene—spaces that inspire us to let down our guard and breathe easy as soon as we step foot in them. Sometimes we sense that peaceful quietude in a cathedral, a counselor's Zen-designed office, a yoga studio, or a local coffee shop. But we've also experienced the opposite: the professor's office that's bulging with books and paperwork and the friend's home that's overstuffed with furniture. Or, wait. Maybe that's our home. More
How to Be Successful With Your Next Cleanse
Cleanses are to this decade, what low-fat diets were to the 1980s. It seems like everyone you meet is trying one type of cleanse or another, but the results vary from person to person. Some people go on a cleanse and feel amazing, while others struggle to stick with it or worse, end up getting sick. It may not be the cleanse itself that's the problem. It may be the way we are cleansing. While it feels like a magic bullet to take time off from your usual food routine, to have greater success you want to get clear about why you are cleansing and learn the best practices. More

Hi everyone,
I don't actually own a BMW but I need to get some info on a BMW on behalf of someone at work.
Her father recently passed away and she would like to sell his car.
I've had a look on parkers and google but finding the value of the car is difficult as I can't see many of this model about.
It's a 1979 BMW 528i, manual, left hand drive.
As far as I know the bodywork is in pristine condition but the milage is quite high. It's been garaged all its life.
Any idea on the value of it?
I can get more info on it but it will take time as she has to get in contact with her mother on the continent.
Thank you,

Species Profile
Greater Sage-Grouse phaios subspecies
Scientific Name: Centrocercus urophasianus phaios
Other/Previous Names: Sage Grouse (British Columbia population)
Taxonomy Group: Birds
Range: British Columbia
Last COSEWIC Assessment: April 2008
Last COSEWIC Designation: Extirpated
SARA Status: Schedule 1, Extirpated
Quick Links: | Photo | Description | Habitat | Biology | Reasons for extirpation | Protection | Recovery Initiatives | National Recovery Program | Documents
Image of Greater Sage-Grouse phaios subspecies
The Greater Sage-Grouse has mostly brownish-grey upper parts, with a blackish abdomen. The long pointed tail is black and white and the wing linings are whitish. It is the largest grouse species in Canada. Adult males are larger and heavier than females, typically weighing about 2.3 kilograms and averaging 75 cm in length. Adult males also sport a white throat strap and a large white bib of spiky feathers concealing yellowish air sacs. Females and young males are similarly patterned but are more cryptically coloured. (Updated 2008/06/05)
Distribution and Population
The Greater Sage-Grouse is found mainly in the large sagebrush and silver sagebrush ranges of North America. It is most common now in southwestern Colorado, particularly in the Gunnison Basin area. The Canadian range extends from the Milk River area of southeastern Alberta to the Wood Mountain area of southern Saskatchewan. Before they were extirpated, the British Columbia populations occurred in the Okanagan and Similkameen valleys. The species is also extirpated from Nebraska, New Mexico and Oklahoma. Eight to 10 million Sage-Grouse may have existed throughout the species' range before European settlement. The species was probably never common in British Columbia. The bird's decline has been blamed on excessive hunting and loss of habitat, especially through agricultural conversion of sage flats. The last naturally occurring B.C. Sage-Grouse was likely shot in 1918. Reintroduction efforts in 1958 proved to be unsuccessful. There have been no confirmed sightings of the bird in British Columbia since 1966. In Alberta, there were approximately 560 birds according to the 2000 population estimate, with 126 males at 8 active leks. Saskatchewan had an estimated 550 animals in 2000, with 124 males at 11 active leks. The population is increasing in Alberta, and populations in Saskatchewan have increased somewhat from record low levels and have been relatively stable over the past 5 years. (Updated 2008/06/05)
Sagebrush is necessary for nesting and wintering habitat. High quality cover is essential for nesting and brood rearing. The Canadian distribution falls within the mixed-grassland ecoregion, dominated by speargrass, blue grama, wheatgrass and June grass. Medium to finely textured brown chernozem soils are characteristic of the mixed grasslands. Sparsely vegetated areas are preferred for leks (settings for male exhibits during breeding season). Broods use silver sagebrush-grassland near nest sites for up to four weeks after hatching. They move next to succulent forb habitat near water. Broods increase the amount of sagebrush in diet as they mature and move to sagebrush-dominated habitats by autumn. (Updated 2008/06/05)
Male Greater Sage-Grouse group together in April and May to form leks - a mating system where males display communally at a traditional site to attract females. Male displays include strutting about with the tail erect and fanned out; wings held rigid and almost touching the ground; and neck sacs inflated, then deflated to make a loud popping sound. The more dominant males occupy centre stage and are also more successful at mating than shyer counterparts. Breeding success also depends on the age and health of males. Sub-adult birds have reduced testicular development and lower sperm production compared with adult males. Birds with chewing lice or avian malaria are less likely than healthy males to be chosen as mates. Only 10 to 15 % of males breed. The species is known to be polygamous. Females initiate nesting soon after mating. The nests are usually located under sagebrush plants. The average clutch size is 7 to 9, but females may lay up to 12 eggs. Eggs are laid at intervals of 1.3 days. Incubation lasts 25 to 27 days. Chicks generally leave the nest within an hour of hatching. (Updated 2008/06/05)
Reasons for extirpation
Inclement weather, habitat degradation and habitat conversion are major limiting factors for this species. Hunting, oil and gas developments and collisions with fences, farm vehicles and power poles are also contributing factors. Parasites and predators (Golden Eagles, bobcats, weasels, domestic cats and coyotes) are detrimental as well. Tapeworm is responsible for 59 % of juvenile mortality. Pesticide use is a factor, especially in the United States. Overgrazing probably contributed to the decline of the subspecies in British Columbia. (Updated 2008/06/05)
Federal ProtectionThe Greater Sage-Grouse phaios subspecies is protected under the federal Species at Risk Act (SARA). More information about SARA, including how it protects individual species, is available in the Species at Risk Act: A Guide.

COSEWIC Status Reports
COSEWIC Assessment and Status Report on the Greater Sage Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) in Canada Phaios subspecies (2000)Sage Grouse, commonly known as Sage Hens or Sage Chickens have the scientific name (Centrocercus urophasianus) which means "Spiny Tailed Pheasant".

Recovery Strategies
Recovery Strategy for the Greater Sage-Grouse phaios subspecies (Centrocercus urophasianus phaios) in Canada (2017)The Minister of Environment and Climate Change is the competent minister under SARA for the Greater Sage-Grouse phaios and has prepared this recovery strategy, as per section 37 of SARA. To the extent possible, it has been prepared in cooperation with the Province of British Columbia, as per section 39(1) of SARA.
Emergency Order for the Protection of the Greater Sage-Grouse (2014)The purpose of the Emergency Order for the Protection of the Greater Sage-Grouse, made pursuant to the Species at Risk Act (SARA), is to address the imminent threats to the survival and recovery of the Greater Sage-Grouse, including by protecting the habitat identified in the Emergency Order to help stabilize the population and begin its recovery.
COSEWIC Annual Reports
Agricultural Producers and the Sage-Grouse Recovery Strategy (2015)Successful recovery of the Sage-Grouse requires involvement of agricultural producers, local stakeholders and governments at all levels. For its part, the Government of Canada starts with developing a Recovery Strategy. The Recovery Strategy is a planning document that describes current scientific knowledge on threats to species and identifies critical habitat needed for the survival and recovery of the Sage-Grouse. The Recovery Strategy also identifies measures that could be taken to help stop the decline of Sage-Grouse. Voluntary stewardship actions by agricultural producers are important to Sage-Grouse recovery, and assistance is available from the Government of Canada to support activities recommended in the Recovery Strategy.
Summary and Questions & Answers: Emergency Order – Greater Sage-Grouse (2013)The purpose of the Emergency Order for the Protection of the Greater Sage-Grouse is to address the imminent threats to the survival and recovery of the Sage-Grouse to help stabilize the population and begin its recovery. The Government of Canada's goal is to achieve the best protection for the Greater Sage-Grouse, while minimizing impacts on landowners and agricultural producers. The Emergency Order will come into force on February 18, 2014. The prohibitions contained in the Emergency Order only apply to habitat on federal and provincial crown lands in southeastern Alberta and southwestern Saskatchewan. Grazing will not be regulated by the Emergency Order. In areas where grazing can be modified to improve Greater Sage-Grouse habitat, the Government of Canada will provide incentives for voluntary stewardship measures through programs like the Habitat Stewardship Program for Species at Risk.
The Greater Sage-Grouse (2013)The Greater Sage-Grouse is a large ground-dwelling bird that has finely marked brown, black, beige and white upper parts, a black belly, and a long pointed tail. It is the largest grouse species found in North America. Within the white breast feathers of the male Greater Sage-Grouse, there are two large air sacs that are inflated and deflated as part of a spectacular mating display.
Related Information
Information on the Sage Grouse Recovery Strategy and Emergency Protection Order (2014)The Sage-Grouse is an endangered bird species that depends on the unique prairie ecosystem in Alberta and Saskatchewan. In 2012, there were estimated to be roughly 100 adults remaining in Canada. The population has declined by 98% since 1988. The Government of Canada's plan for successful recovery of this species includes the Emergency Protection Order, which focuses on imminent threats to the species in the wild, the Amended Recovery Strategy, which will guide recommended voluntary stewardship activities on Sage-Grouse habitat, and a joint program with the Calgary Zoo to breed and rear Sage-Grouse chicks in a safe environment to help increase the population in the wild.
Recovery Document Posting Plans
Environment and Climate Change Canada's Three-Year Recovery Document Posting Plan (2016)Environment and Climate Change Canada's Three-Year Recovery Document Posting Plan identifies the species for which recovery documents will be posted each fiscal year starting in 2014-2015. Posting this three year plan on the Species at Risk Public Registry is intended to provide transparency to partners, stakeholders, and the public about Environment and Climate Change Canada's plan to develop and post these proposed recovery strategies and management plans. However, both the number of documents and the particular species that are posted in a given year may change slightly due to a variety of circumstances. Last update March 31, 2017

I have an Electrolux Commercial Upright vacuum Model U129C. It has a device which turns off the motor driving the beater bar if something gets stuck in it. There is a simple reset button to restart the beater after clearing the obstruction. Just recently on flat dense low pile surfaces the switch cuts in after just a few seconds and turns the beater bar off. This doesn't happen on high pile carpet but the motor doesn't quite sound normal. There is no obstruction - the beater bar can spin freely

Connor Night/Chapter 5: Weighing Vales
Weighing Values
As his eyes flickered open Connor had trouble remembering what had previously happened. He came to slowly, a knocking pain inside his head, and a throbbing one from his right shoulder.
Connor's neck was stiff; laying in an awkward position on a wet wooden floor. Wait, what the heck ? He picked himself up, realizing that his hands were cuffed above his head and that he had a steal chain on his right ankle.
His heart quickened, beating out of his chest. Connor panicked, stumbling around the area, trying to move in his constraints; each movement only causing teared skin, blood, and pain. Connor grasped his hands desperately on the rusty chains, holding his arms, and shook crazily, trying to, with all his strength, break them. Oh, crap! No, this can't happen. What happen!? Where am I! I need t get out of here! I–I need to get home!
"I would not try," said a small voice.
Connor stopped and looked around for the voice, tears in his eyes. He found a thin girl curled in a corner, staring at him. "Who's there? Who is that?" he asked.
She shimmed into a light that beamed from a small opening above. The girl was amazingly disheveled. She had blond hair that wrapped around in nots like a birds nest. Bruises on her knees and arms. Dried blood was crusted on her lip. "What happened to you?" Connor asked.
"What happened to you?" she mocked.
He frowned. "Not sure."
"You've been captured by Raiders," she said dimly.
He sighed, defeated. "Oh. Great," he said dryly. "Where are we?" He moved as close as he could toward her.
"A ship, I imagine?" she said it as if it were something obvious.
As the sarcastic words left the girls mouth, the ship began to sway vigorously. Pulling to the left and then the right and back again. Each pull causing Connor's skin to tear as he was pulled side to side. He groaned and winced, the pain never ceasing.
The two prisoner's stood silent for a long time regaining their breath. Connor panted, his eyes fading in and out. "I need water," he voiced. She didn't respond. He tapped his head against the wall; not knowing what to do.
Their space wide and long, just about the entire length of the ship itself. There were about thirty barrels on each side of them. Each side had two widows that allowed a morning sun into their chamber. The two of them sat against a wall, cuffed, about ten feet apart. A few rotted steps were in front of them, leading to the upper deck of the ship.
"What's your name?" Connor finally asked, tired and defeated. A cockroach scattered along the floor.
"I would rather not," she replied.
Connor was confused, "Why?"
"It would be best if you and I did not get acquainted."
"But why?" he asked.
"Because," she said, in a tone that reminded him of Madison, "time does not allow it. Time will cease to exist, but time will never end."
"Huh?" Connor said. "That doesn't even make sense."
"I shall not take the time to explain it. Time is too short," she said.
"What?" What!
She took a deep breath, "We are only prisoners awaiting a certain death."
"Oh," he said, "so you don't want to talk to me because we're going to die?"
"Aye," she nodded, and turned away from him.
Connor rolled his eyes, "You couldn't just say that?"
Silence grew between them for a time.Then an unlatching sound could be heard from above, and with that came the footsteps creaking all the way down.
A hideous creature came into as it welcomed itself into their chamber, "The cap'n wants a wurd wit ya," it said, shuffling toward Connor's chains.
"Me?" Connor asked. But the creature didn't respond.
It reached inside its long trench-coat, a purple stain was on his tunic. Connor's eyes flashed to the creatures face and suddenly it came back. This is the creature from the inn! This–this thing killed Errol! The raider's black eyes danced; never leaving Connor's. His purple lips spread, his teeth gleamed in the darkness.
A gold key dangled in the raider's monster-like hand as he de-cuffed him.
Rubbing his wrists, Connor asked, "What happened to you?"
The raider's smile drowned in vengeance, "You did." His 'did' sounded like 'dead.' "Move out," he demanded, giving Connor a shove.
As Connor walked the rotted steps, the wood began to give. The sun shone more brightly above; it would blind him when the monster opened the latched. That it did. With a loud clunk the door opened.
Connor stood on the top deck, shielding his eyes from the early morning sun. His eyes adjusted as the creature pushed him along the ship. The ship wasn't large, a half mile long. It had a long mast that had a red and black flag.
Connor stood, silent, more creatures, Raiders, surrounded him, encircling him, trapping him. This is it. They're going to eat me alive.... Now would be a wonderful time to WAKE UP! But nothing happened. No matter how hard he closed his eyes and wished to be woken up, it wouldn't happen.
The crowd backed away, creating a bigger circle. Leaving Connor, the bleeding Raider, Regior was his name, and an entirely different Raider standing in the middle.
This new creature was more deformed than any of the others. He was more animal than human, and more monster than anything else. He stood tall, lean and muscular; his human qualities. His torso and lower body were covered in beastly black fur, that ran from his legs to his neck. The neck was a peachy color that vanished at the jaw; turning to a thirsty gold-bronze fur that continue on the edges of his normal face. The remaining of the Raider's face would have looked normal, if not for the black eyes, and the jagged teeth protruding from of his closed mouth.
"Hello," his speech was clear and crisp, unlike the rest. "I welcome you to the S.S. Stern." He bowed before Connor, a long tail reached into the air as he bended. "You may call me," he said smoothly, "Nathorn." His slithering tung licked across his teeth. "Your's?"
"Connor," he said, eyeing his surroundings.
"Aye," he smiled. "You've made quite the impression...already.... Haven't you?" He raised a fury eye brow to his bleeding comrade.
"I was attacked! I–I had know choice–I didn't mean–," Connor said.
Nathorn stepped forward, a step at a time, "Tell me, Connor, about the Pool of Wishes." A beastly hand laid on the hilt of a cutlass blade.
"Huh? What?"
His black eyes flickered. "I said tell me about the Pool of Wishes!" he roared. His crew coward away from his wrath.
"I–I don't know anything," he said.
Nathorn eyed him, then said, "Very well." He turned away from Connor and stalked away, then turned rapidly, facing him again. "The problem," he said, "is Regior would like to eat you." His smile winded wickedly. "I mean, you did throw your weapon into his stomach. He has a right."
"He deserved it," Connor said.
Nathorn let out a hearty laugh, "A boy with gut! You would make a fearless Raider!"
Connor didn't say anything. Fear ate at his voice.
"Quiet, aye?" Regior said, shoving Connor forward. "Said somethin' ya don't like?"
Connor didn't speak; his legs shook.
Nathorn stared at Connor for a moment, an indecisive smile painted onto his purple lips. "Regior, kneel in front of our guest," he said.
"N' why de'hell would I do tha'?" asked Regior, "E' should be kneelin' front of me' beggin fo his damned life!"
Nathorn's eyes grew. "I said kneel!" he roared.
Regior stumbled from behind Connor, a stiff hand plastered onto his gut; stopping the blood. He knelt in front of Connor.
Nathorn inched forward, the look of pleasure never leaving his monstrous face. His beastly hand fingering the hilt of the cutlass sword. He released it from its sheath, the crowd pulled away; not sure of what to expect. Nathorn eyed the weapon; inspecting it. With a stinging motion he swung the sword fiercely, stopping at the crevice of Regior's deformed neck. Nathorn smiled.
He removed the blade and in a swift motion presented its hilt to Connor, "Do it," he slurred.
"Wha–?" said Connor.
"Do it," he repeated.
Connor wouldn't–couldn't move.
"Or," he said, "I allow him to kill you. Finish what you started, boy."
"Cap'n," Regior mumbled, "ya–ya can't be serious."
Nathorn smiled, "Oh, I am.... What will it be, boy? Your life or his?"
Connor gulped three times, his eyes darting from the sword to Regior, the sword to Regior. There was no way out of it.
Connor closed his eyes as he began to reach forward for the weapon. His hand touch the gold hilt and eyes shook underneath their shades. Please wake up...please. I just want to go home. The cutlass glazed upon the creatures neck. His eyes open and he was still there. His eyes now filled with tears.
Connor caught Nathorn's eyes, "I just want to go home," he mumbled. "I–I don't want any trouble."
Nathorn smiled, like a puppy dog; his head tilted. "I don't care," he said.
Connor swallowed again, a tear falling, his hand still on the hilt. Without thinking, he dropped the sword to the ground. In a quick flash, Regior scooped it up and swung toward Connor's throat. He ducked in enough time, only his shirt was slashed.
Regior growled, and advanced. Connor coward away. Nathorn stood, smiling with amazement. Then something came over him.
"WAIT!" he roared. Regior froze in mid-swing. "An idea is forming. I wouldn't want you to dispose of the boy too early," he said. It was quite for a moment, everyone held their breath. Then, his eyes lightened and his smile widened. "Yes," he said, "yes, that's it."
"Wha! Wha?! Can I kill em' or wha?!" Regior demanded, impatiently.
"No," he said. "Not yet. You will duel him."
"Wha!" Regior screamed. "Wha in de bloody ell is da point in dat!?"
Nathorn swallowed, and looked at Regior viciously. "The point," he said, "is you will have two full days of rest. Giving you time to heal your wound, and the boy will have time to weigh his options. Weigh his values."
"Deal," Connor spat. "Deal!"
Nathorn laughed, "See? The boy likes it!"
Regior sighed roughly, "You da boss."
Nathorn laughed, grasping his sword and taking it from Regior's shaking hand. "Brog!" he yelled. "Take Regior and heal him! He's got to be ready to fight for his life in two days!" The crowd of creatures roared and hollered.
A Raider, Connor had never seen, grabbed him by the arm and dragged him below into the depths of ship. A sigh passed through him as the chains clasped onto his limbs.
I'm alive, he thought, as tear ran down his cheek. For now....

Too much pride (Part 1/2)
I tossed a few leaves that lay next to me, crunching in my hands and squeezing them hard before they were thrown to the ground as they gently danced away.
The wind blew my overgrown fringe into my eyes, then back to the side of my face so I could see the sunlight again…whereas for my school uniform- it was tattier than ever. A few ripped holes here and there- especially at the arm where they'd tried to grab hold of me. Flashbacks shot back at me as I sat up to inspect the conditions of my weak legs. There were a few scratches just below the knee- one that started at the ankle, ending halfway up the knee. A few blood droplets from this had stained the socks I had played football in yesterday, but it didn't really matter.
I enjoyed this kind of pain. Fisting a few guys when I became angry, discontented. They never felt like humans when I was in a fight, only punching bags I could use for free whenever I liked.
No one ever understood me when I was little. My 2nd year teacher miss Anderson, suggested I should see a psychologist when I would randomly start fights in the middle of class repetitively, whilst she held out boring baby cartoon books that she would make us recite over and over again.
It wasn't alright that everybody thought I was mad- and my mother who heard about this never took the advice because she didn't give a damn about me. She'd always thought I was mad, mad with guilt, guilt that I still remember father- the man who abandoned us for another woman. She hated me, not only for that, but for who I was- for living. But then, who cares if she didn't care about me- I didn't need her sympathy or anyone's sympathy…or so I believed.
The wind blew again, but harder this time, and a few leaves sprawled onto my face. At that moment, I felt a tear roll down the side of my cheeks. I told myself that it must've been the wind…but I lied to myself. It was then I realised something- I wasn't as strong as I thought I was…maybe, my heart was as weak as others, though I'd never realised…never wanted to realise.

Medicare Physician Fee Schedule
In April 2015, the President signed into law the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 (HR 2, also known as MACRA). This law:
- Repeals the Sustainable Growth Rate (SGR) methodology for determining updates to the Medicare physician fee schedule.
- Establishes annual positive or flat fee updates for 10 years and institutes a two-tracked fee update afterwards.
- Establishes a Merit-Based Incentive Payment System that consolidates existing Medicare fee-for-service physician incentive programs.
- Establishes a pathway for physicians to participate in alternative payment models, including the patient-centered medical home.
- Makes other changes to existing Medicare physician payment statutes.
On November 2, 2016, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released the 2017 final Medicare physician fee schedule(s3.amazonaws.com). This regulation addresses changes to the physician fee schedule (PFS) and other Medicare Part B payment policies to ensure that Medicare payment systems are updated to reflect changes in medical practice and the relative value of services. This regulation is effective on January 1, 2017
The American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) sent a 56-page comment letter to CMS in response to the proposed version of this regulation on August 19, 2016. Upon the final rule release, the AAFP issued a media statement that:
- Commended the creation of new primary care codes;
- Strongly supported the expansion of the Medicare Diabetes Prevention Program;
- Expressed disappointment that CMS only finalized misvalued code changes that achieve 0.32 percent in net expenditure reductions. Since these changes do not fully meet the misvalued code target required by law, physicians will not receive the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA) positive 0.5 percent update in 2017. The 2017 Medicare PFS conversion factor will be $35.89, an increase of only $0.09 from the 2016 conversion factor. The AAFP statement called this a violation of the spirit of MACRA.
- Expressed increasing concerns that CMS is adding regulatory burdens to primary care physicians. For instance, CMS is requiring primary care physicians to consult appropriate use criteria for advanced diagnostic imaging and not aligning this program with the Merit-Based Incentive Payment System (MIPS).

Split is Happening, But Did Big Sean Steal Naya's Jewelry???
By now you may have heard that "Glee" star Naya Rivera and her FORMER rapper fiancé Big Sean have split. The rumor was that Sean was a little unfaithful…and he reportedly admitted to his mistakes. They have since unfollowed each other on Twitter and the above tweet seems like Big Sean is a bit of a clepto also?? Did he take her watches?

Nice apartment, well furnished. Located in the center of Zagreb. Everything to be reached easily. Clean, comfortable and quiet.
A very clean and secure apartment. A short ten minute walk to the city centre. We felt right at home in Zagreb. Located just 30 meters from great coffee at "Popek" cafe. If you want your coffee to go, bring your own mug!! I was driven to the local supermarket that was open on the Sunday by Hrvoje so we could buy supplies which was a fantastic service!! We had a great experience. This apartment is highly recommended!!
Great location and excellent communication around the exchange of keys and at arrival/ departure. I've marked this apartment with only 3 stars purely because it's located in the basement which I didn't expect. The flat has very high ceilings so once indoors you do forget. Note that the second bedroom is off the master bedroom.
Die Wohnung ist schön und sauber und liegt so zentral, dass man mit einem maximalen Fussmarsch von 10 Min. mitten im Zentrum Zagrebs ist. Ein bisschen mehr persönlichen Einsatz hätten wir uns gewünscht, denn nicht jeder hat - trotz WLAN - seinen PC immer dabei.
Fui a Zagreb con un grupo de amigos, en total éramos 5 personas. Estuvimos alojados durante una noche en este apartamento. Desde el primer momento que lo reservamos los anfitriones fueron muy amables y se pusieron en contacto con nosotros para facilitarnos nuestra estancia. El piso está muy céntrico, el único inconveniente quizás las humedades del piso, por estar situado en un semisótano, aunque my bien iluminado. Todo estuvo muy bien.
