No hay piscina, máquinas expendedoras de salida
Buen desayuno Las habitaciones estaban sucias, área para comer, la mayoría de hotel. No hay restaurante.
Amplia habitación limpia con sofá. La cama era cómoda. Bonito escritorio. Nevera y microondas, baño limpio. Personal amable competente. Baño pequeño.
The staff was very friendly. Nothing.
Nice clean rooms, great breakfast and helpful staff.
The hotel was not that easy to find. Street signs were not clearly readable due to bad lighting.
Paid $99 total for an amazing king suite with my fiancé. Staff was so helpful. Thy had everything ready for me and we enjoyed every minute of our trip. Definitely coming back, and we wouldn't normally do that.
cleanlyness and nice and informative staff had a quote price thru booking.com at check in extra charges were added "airport taxes" of 12%-15%
The room was very clean and the staff friendly. The walls should be more soundproof.
The staff was very friendly and helpful. The night desk person was delightful and very helpful. The couple we were traveling with thought they had reservations at the same hotel and as it turned out they did not. The clerk located the correct hotel checked the reservations for them and gave us directions to take them. Very kind of her. We had an early morning flight and the morning desk person really hustled to see we had something to eat before we all left. Both were very thoughtful and hada great attitude. THe hotel was also spotless. Definitely we will stay again.
Friendly & attentive staff. Entire hotel is very clean. Comfortable bed and linens. Convenient location to the airport with complimentary shuttle service. This place is a real value. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others. Would be nice if they had a bar or restaurant on the property but they were very accommodating with their shuttle to make up for it.
First, the room was nicely sized. The staff were very courteous and friendly. It's a fairly easy place to get to The room temperature was a little cold for my taste. Also, there wasn't any wash cloths to wash my face when showering.
La cama era muy cómoda y la habitación muy grande, pero creo q nos dieron una suite... Hay parking gratuito y wifi tmb.La habitación esta muy limpia. Por el precio de la habitación el desayuno incluido hubiera estado perfecto, aunque los hoteles en usa son mas caros y tienen peor relación calidad- precio.

The hotel staff was very accommodating. They were friendly and helped alot with all of our needs. They room was large and just what we needed! The kids swam and loved the pool. I didn't like their having no rules on alcohol there were people in the pool and the hot tub drinking and i really didn't care for that around my kids.

The room was perfect. Large and clean
It is too close to express way, and very noise in night.
The room was very clean and the staff was friendly. I have no complaints.
Very friendly staff. Residence Inn has a good reputation. They had a nice 'tasting event' prepared by a nearby restaurant offering free appetizers and wine and beer. Very nice touch. The room was acceptable but the bathroom was very run down. Cracks in the caulk, lots of rust, not a well working toilet. Just, not very nice. No where near what you'd expect from a three star hotel.
Friendly staff, large room that accommodated us with our kids.
Room was spacious and clean with everything needed for an extended stay; staff were friendly and helpful; hotel was close to my area of travel in Indianapolis; breakfast was wonderful with everything imaginable and hot/cold. Pool water was very cold.

Hotel pool and hot tub very nice.Outdoor courtyard very comfortable and landscape was very nice. Bisto very convenient.
This hotel was a very pleasant surprise. Location is very near the airport, which can be a positive or negative, as there is some air traffic noise. Room was very spacious, comfortable and clean. Bathroom was also clean and shower was very good. The lack of a free breakfast offering is always a bit annoying, but free parking was a plus.
Great And friendly staff
It was nice, quiet, and clean. All good
What I liked best: Evelyn the day manager. She undid a problem which the night clerk was party to. My profile with Springhill etc. is no first floor, no handicap room and extra towels. Look at the above.
Staff was extremely helpful, courteous and knowledgeable.
Staff was very, very helpful, in addition to being competent. The $13 glass of wine! I could buy a whole good (not great) bottle for that, and your hotel wanted to charge $13 for a 6-oz. glass. VERY disappointed that I didn't get to relax with a glass that night, but I will NEVER pay that much of a mark-up.

Getting to the Convention was pretty easy due to the hotel's location. On the initial booking, it was listed as a suite. I was expecting at least a separate seating area with the fold out couch. The room we received was simply a single occupancy room with a fold out loveseat.
The shuttle service picked me up at 1:30 am. Was very easy to request and driver was extremely nice. Once there I was allowed late checkout of 2pm, which allowed me adequate sleep time. Room was comfortable and clean but I have stayed at nicer Hamptons. Bed was acceptable, but I prefer rediculously soft mattresses so I am sure most people would enjoy it.
I had my 93 year old father with me on a quick business trip. I ordered dinner in the am to be brought up at 5, and breakfast at 9 am which they don't do normally. They went out of their way to do this and make sure my dad was taken care of - no questioned asked just awesome service above and beyond! Absolutely nothing
Clean and friendly No

The bed, shower, location and clean
This hotel was great. It is all brand new, extremely clean with friendly staff. It is also conveniently located near the downtown area, without actually being part of the downtown traffic. We made it to our Friday evening event in plenty of time. No. I would highly recommend this location and plan to stay here whenever I attend an event in Indianapolis!
Hotel was clean, well furnished, and the staff was friendly.
I love that there were firepits on the patio outside.
New, clean, attractive, somewhat near the airport.
Hotel was great!!! Staff was very nice and professional. Room was clean, large, nice bathroom. Great hotel!! Will definitely go back again!!!
Bed comfortable, room spacious and cleaned Fire alarm went off Saturday night Sunday morning. Not good communication from the on site staff

Great location, still very new and in amazing condition. The bed was very comfortable and the pool area was nice. The food was pretty good and only a few minutes drive to the airport and food areas Because it was still newer the smell of our room was a bit intense. It smelt like a new room, fresh paint or something that just hadn't settled. I would say spray something to decrease the new smell but that's something that isn't a huge issue
Went down with the bf for FDIC and brought our dog along. The room was cleaned they were very helpful with everything fixed the shower right away when the nob couldn't go up due to the lime build up on the nob inside the faucet. Liked that we could rent out movies or board games or kitchen things if needed. I like that maid cleaning didn't start until you stayed a week because of my dog staying in the room when we weren't there. very easy to find great trip overall. We were on the first floor right next to the elavater so it was a little noisey but not to bad. Saturday it got more noisey because there were kids running around you could here them yelling from the pool and outside our door but besides that trip was good.

Was clean can walk on carpet and clean sheets staff work hard to please you I stay at never hotel in Chicago and was dirty
Location I called immediately after booking to confirm and to request bed type, which was a king, the frying desk clerk assured me that I wld have that, when I got there only an hour later he informed me that they were completely sold out and now only had gueens.
Nothing No
The location. The hotel needed updating. The elevator was extremely slow and some of the towels in the room were dirty. The bed was not comfortable.

Easy to get to IND. Clean, nothing fancy but hit the essentials well. Lots of parking, friendly night manager. AC was a little anemic. Had housekeeping key in twice the same morning while we were still asleep, but we didn't put out the Do Not Disturb sign either.
It was clean and quiet. The room had a fridge! Everything was very clean. Our mattress was of inferior quality. We didn't do much sleeping anyways...;) it was just a cheaper spring type mattress. I'm former Army so it didn't bother me at all but my girlfriend complained about it.
Location near the airport was the best I could find for proximity to downtown. ~$12 UBER ride to Lucas Oil. Price was high for the level of hotel but because of the event in town it was still priced competitively with the others.

Friendly and helpful staff. Rooms were clean and well appointed. Good choices for breakfast. Good choices on the TVs All was good.
Nothing TV wasn't working good, pool wasn't working, very dim and scary looking, we saw bed bugs... Smh
The employees were friendly. Maids left no towels, soap, shampoo, or toilet paper. Had to ask for everything at desk. Had to have room key renewed every day. Did not clean floor whole time we were there. Free breakfast consisted of toast and waffles. Some days no bread for toast
Nothing The entire hotel was filthy. The 'Continental Breakfast' consisted of a few Doughnuts, coffee, and dried out pancakes. There was no juice or milk offered for my children. The pool was tiny. They also fail to mention how close to the airport they are, LOUD
The location is very nice. The place was under major renovation which meant that the swimming pool was not available and most of the hallways and rooms were not available. Dust and dirt was everywhere including the eating area. The breakfast was skimpy at best.
nothing would not stay here. There was no shuttle to airport. The room was not smoke free. Cancelled reservation. Did not look anything like pictures on website.
Very disappointing 139 did not have working phone, shower head did not work, it was corroded, no plug in tub, hair in tub. Room dusty.
First room we got in had bed bugs I got bit an the bug was on the pillow I actually got a pic so they moved us and it was a little better no bugs
Nothing Pictures on website were deceiving. There were men with alcohol walking around the hotel and leaving beer bottles in the elevator. I asked for a few extra blankets and the hotel stated they can't and it's not in their policy. The room was too hot.
Location I reserved a king bed, and we got 2 full beds.
One worker was pleasant I believe her. I think the manager was on drugs she caused my nephew swim party to be a disaster. She called the police and lied on us saying we threatened to beat her up.i never been through anything like this in my entire life.i live a peaceful life.

Location that is all Every5hing
This is my Second time staying, king executive room was clean and comfortable, contemporary style. Kids slept on the pullout sofa bed, they said it was comfortable. Breakfast had different choices of hot bar each day, that tasted good. Water pressure in the shower wasn't too good, it made taking a shower a little longer to get all the shampoo and conditioner out of my hair. Also I arrived early and called the hotel asking if I could check in early the front desk stated they did not do early check in, check in with at 3 PM they are least I could do was 2:45 PM. I have stayed at other country inn hotels in other states/locations and if my room was clean and available I had no problem checking in early... I was just a little disappointed that my young son and I could not unload our car and rest for a few minutes before going to meet family, but I made do with that and went back to check in at three
Comfortable, convenient, decent breakfast 0330 AM check in: night clerk unable to use systems. Had to call supervisor 3x before he emerged belligerently from sleep on site and solved the problems in less tha 5 minutes after his arrival. This did not happen until after 0430 AM. More seating for the breakfast would be of great benefit.
Very convenient to downtown Indy.
Convenient location Huge sign from the interstate on location of hotel but only a small sign to show where to turn to get to the property. Not enough parking for hotel guests. Stayed 2 nights. I returned to hotel late in the evening and had to park along the curb as not enough parking spaces on either side of the hotel. Arrived to hotel to check in around 4:30 p.m. and room was not available. Sat in lobby while manager figured out what room she could assign. Temperature in room was hard to control. Set control at 76 so air conditioner would not kick on constantly. Breakfast selection was ok.
Convenience to the airport. The poorly maintained front porch upon arrival from prior guests and their trash. The newspaper dispenser did not work-remove it!
Seemed relatively quiet on a Tuesday night. Staff, cleanliness, no crib or pack n play available, breakfast packed away promptly at 9:30, linens were not changed.
Staff was friendly. Excellent location for my needs. Kitchen appliances were clean. Vending machines accepted credit cards for late-night snacks. Extension cord used for lamps was blackened, indicating a potential electrical problem. Hot water very slow to heat up. Walls are paper-thin; I was next to an elevator and didn't sleep well because of it. Microwave was missing turntable. The security latch malfunctioned, first locking me out of my room then breaking all together.
Kayla (overnight shift) was very accommodating, my flight arrived at 2am in IND airport got to the hotel at 3am. She was very understanding, the reservation wasn't cancelled. Kayla even helped me out with some supplies as stores were closed and I couldn't get any. Thanks Kayla!!! For me this hotel had what I needed. Facilities were a little outdated, the gym consists of four pieces of equipment which two were out of order (per the sign on them). The iron in the room was dirty, had to warm the iron up and use it on a towel to make sure it wouldn't stain my dress shirts. Lastly on the day of my stay housekeeping started banging on my door at 9am saying I was supposed to be checked out. Even though check out is by 11am. overall I do feel I got my money's worth $59/night for a queen size bed a recliner and TV count me in!!!
Staff was articulate and clear on all explanations. They brought us the kitchen amenities we needed before we even say down in the room. Were not over barring. The room service wasn't available since we were only there two nights; this was a plus because that limited the amount of "*knock knock* room service " we heard from the hall. Room was quite small. Any more than 2 days would've been stressful. The door has enough space for your fingers to reach underneath to the other side. This allowed a great deal of light into the room at night. There's also a lower set peephole that allowed light right at eye level when sitting in the chair.

George and I worked together on a number of projects. He's good fun and incredibly bright. Most people who do what he did were quite dull and formulaic in the way they approached problems, but he never took the predictable way. He would go in to do a presentation with only three charts when everybody was expecting 40. He argues very intelligently and singlemindedly and he is very persuasive. He's an exciting person to work with.
I moved to HHCL as an account director and George joined nine months later. During our five or six years there, we often talked about doing something on our own - it was something we had always wanted to do. The key thing was that we were friends. There was absolute trust, and no politics, which I think slows everything down. We like challenging the status quo, and for us, ideas come before money. The industry is often obsessed with money for the sake of it, but both of us share the belief that if you come up with great ideas, money will follow.
We saw a major opportunity in the media area: there's more media now than ever before, and the view the advertising industry had taken was that media was about numbers. We knew it was about culture, so we set up M&B to challenge that. The prevailing wisdom was that the media function was about getting eyeballs at the lowest possible price. We were saying: "It's so important the way people edit their media." It was a discipline all on its own. We wanted to work out the most interesting way of engaging people. George had championed some of these issues at HHCL and we found there was so much interest that we were convinced there was a huge opportunity to go out and do it. We spent nine months discussing it carefully and then went into it.
Both of us enjoy the atmosphere of early start-ups. It's very democratic and you can challenge things, but after a while, in all these companies, things fall down and you get hierarchies. For our company, there were a couple of fundamentals. One is architectural design: everybody working round one table has equal space. Environment influences behaviour, and if you have an office with lots of closed doors and blinds, clearly you are going to get hierarchies and politics. The attitude which comes from George, myself and Tony Regan, our third partner, is also fundamental: it's about honesty and openness. That is very stabilising. We're also natural risk-takers, restless and ambitious. We wanted to create something very different and very successful.
One risk was that nobody had ever started a company doing what we did. We create communication ideas for clients. Our expertise is understanding the media and using that to advise different kinds of companies on ways they can add value to their business. We also use that information in our relationships with television production firms. One key thing is collaboration and teamwork. The idea that you have these big monolithic companies is outdated: companies have to interconnect, maybe just for six months. We have lots of relationships like that - it's a spider's web rather than a linear thing.
When we see clients, we mostly do things together. Clients are buying chemistry and a vision, and George and I are good at expressing that. We do it better when we are doing it together. In that situation, they get the full-on 100 per cent sense of what the company is about. I like to do everything at once and make things happen - I'm not very patient - and George is good at being focused. I want to do eight things and he will want to do one.
The challenge has been to be steely and focused. A lot of people said: "It's not going to work - it's too different. Nobody needs it and nobody will pay for it." We have had to ignore that. The most important people are the clients. We are opening up in New York; we want to be 10 times bigger in the next three years. Our focus is on growth and innovation. The attitude is to be pioneers. And one huge reason we did this was to have fun - it's fun controlling your own destiny.
GEORGE MICHAELIDES: My first impression of Graham was that he was a good laugh and I liked his manner. We found it easy to get on together. Part of it is being on the same wavelength. I joined advertising on a graduate trainee scheme. I found advertising interesting; I enjoyed conceptual thinking and it was an arena to develop these skills. I also understood its limitations - ultimately it wasn't that challenging and it was quite a narrow area. I found the bigger area of media as a culture far more interesting.
I knew from early on that Graham and I would do something together. We didn't even need to discuss it - it was just obvious. When you want to run your own show, it becomes increasingly difficult to do it within a company. HHCL offered me a blank sheet of paper to set up a media function and gave me scope to work things through in my own way. And it made a difference to be in a small company which gave me a voice.
Graham and I joined GGT as a young company, and the two things that have underpinned our career progression have been ambition - you seek the new ground because you like challenges - and risk-taking. The biggest risk you can take in our business is not financial: it is more about reputation. You can't recover reputation.
An asset that both Graham and I have is that we are very incisive in the way we communicate ideas. We have applied that to marketing our own company. The first thing you have to do is to get people's attention. We did it by stating that what we were about was radically different to anybody else. Stage two was convincing people that it wasn't just different - it was better. The balance that we have created in the company was important, but it's not something you can write down on paper. Underpinning it all is conviction.
We have developed a style of managing the company which is not hierarchical: we don't have set-piece management meetings, but we are continually involved. There is a strong egalitarian streak, and I hope we put the company ahead of egos. It's very easy in small companies for individuals to dominate, but increasingly at M&B, other people are doing things, and it's vital to future growth that we train up other leaders. We want to give them the skills to develop their own leadership qualities: I don't mean to mimic, but to understand that knowledge is power. We encourage people to take courses to give them that kind of understanding. If I am trained in anything, it's probably philosophy. I'm intrigued by the German philosophers, whom I find far more rigorous than Greek philosophy.
Graham has often said that I have strong conviction and self-belief. He has the same confidence that I have in him - that he can actually lead, because leadership and direction are critical to a small company. It also takes account of the fact that one of us might have a bad day.

Overview and Goals
Since its inception in 2009, the Training Program has remained true to its goals and objectives:
These objectives are accomplished through a variety of funding opportunities and training initiatives that help equip ACHRI trainees - undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and medical residents - with the necessary tools to succeed in an increasingly complex medical research environment, thereby creating the next generation of skilled health researchers.
Capacity Building
Science is leading the way to new understandings of diseases and treatments. To ensure that we have the best opportunities to generate new and important knowledge, a goal of the ACHRI Training Program, and the ACHRI Research Training and Education Platform as a whole, is to build and expand training capacity and help develop excellence in the next generation of scientists.
A large portion of the raining Program is dedicated to providing funding support to ACHRI graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, on a competitive basis once a year, in presenting them with an opportunity to train in an effective learning environment that emphasizes collaboration, a transdisciplinary perspective, and a focus on child health research. The term of the award is two years, for both studentships and fellowships, with renewal for the second year contingent upon the satisfactory progress of the trainee. Typically, six to eight graduate students and three to four postdoctoral scholars are awarded each year through this funding stream. Additionally, the Training Program provides Fast-Track stipend support on an ongoing basis to prospective graduate and postdoctoral trainees who have demonstrated a high degree of academic excellence. This initiative is highly beneficial for recruiting high quality trainees to work and train at ACHRI.
In addition to the graduate studentship and fellowship awards, the Program provides stipend support to undergraduate summer students. Funding summer research projects of eight to ten undergraduate students, this initiative was created to expose participating trainees to the research environment and its practices, and to encourage undergraduate students in health-related fields to pursue further training and work experience in health research. Our summer studentship awardees are expected to submit a written report or poster on their research results, as well as to deliver an oral presentation on the summer project, as a way to introduce these trainees to standard practices in academic science and knowledge translation.
Furthermore, in accepting responsibility and financial support for the ACHF-ACHRI Clinical Research Fellowship program in 2009, the Program administers additional ACHF funds, specifically allocated for clinical research traineeships for residents in pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, and genetics; trainees in certification programs, such as the Canadian College of Medical Genetics (CCMG); and pre- and postdoctoral traineeships in conjunction with the Canadian Child Health Clinician Scientist Program (CCHCSP) – a highly competitive national program for Clinician Scientists. Scholarships for Clinical Research Fellows are awarded on a competitive basis once per year in May. As with our regular fellowships, the term of the ACHF-ACHRI Clinical Research Fellowship is two years, with the second year of funding contingent on the satisfactory progress of the trainee.
Summary Since 2009, the total number of trainees whose research has been supported by the ACHRI-CIHR Training Program has reached 170. This number includes 51 undergraduate summer students, 41 Master's students, 35 PhD students (including 1 in the CCHSCP program), 38 postdoctoral fellows (including 4 in the CCMG program), and 5 residents in research training.
Advanced Skill Development
Travel Awards. The Training Program offers travel awards for trainees to attend meetings where they have an opportunity to present their research and be exposed to advances in research in their specialty areas. This enriched learning benefits both the trainee and his or her training environment as the exposure to new knowledge influences the trainee's research path and builds additional expertise locally. Since 2009, the Program has supported over 120 travel opportunities for students to attend meetings in North America and Europe to present their work, network with fellow trainees and researchers, and learn about the latest important research in their field.
Trainee Research Visits. In addition to travel awards, our Program offered to eligible trainees who wish to travel to attend a course of several weeks' duration, or to visit a partnering research group to learn practical techniques or collaborate in ongoing studies. These visits expose the trainee to new technology, support collaborative research opportunities or more broadly expose the trainee to increased depth in a research field. Since 2009, 17 research visits have been funded by the Program.
Events. As ACHRI aims to support the development of innovative, effective, transdisciplinary, and internationally competitive training initiatives, the Program addresses this goal by organizing and supporting research days, symposia, workshops and seminars that focus on child-health basic and applied research and transdisciplinary research. Aside from posting on ACHRI's website announcements of research days, workshops and symposia that could be of interest to ACHRI trainees, we organize such events in-house. For instance, the Program supports ACHRI-centered and theme-organized research days and symposia, which could be on-site or off-site retreats or trainee research days involving oral and poster presentations by trainees and a seminar by a visiting scholar. Moreover, with the objective of bringing together members of all the themes and research groups within the institute, and to encourage interaction among ACHRI trainees with different research interests, ACHRI organizes its annual flagship event, the ACHRI Research Symposium, which features presentations by invited scholars, institute members and trainees.
Visiting Speakers. In 2009, the ACHRI-CIHR Training Program established a program for hosting visiting scholars who are invited to the U of C for the purpose of participating in a PhD examination committee and presenting a lecture to ACHRI trainees and faculty. The Training Program offers to cover the expenses of each visiting scholar and their ACHRI host. This funding is provided on an ongoing basis and is conditional on the following requirements: 1) the visiting scholar must present a seminar to students and faculty, and 2) supervisor must host an informal networking event to encourage interaction between ACHRI trainees, faculty, and the visiting scholar. To date, 23 such visits have been funded by the Program.

By the way, who is Florian?
First of all: Hello and a warm welcome I am glad that you made it here and are obviously trying to find something out about me.
I am Florian, that means 'happylife.coach', podcaster, writer, ultra runner and owner of a lodge in Zanzibar.
As unconventional as my path to becoming a 'happy life coach' and my current life was, as unconventional I am trying to stay in job and private life, now and in the future.
You find more about the different projects as well as links to all my social media profiles at flohjoe.com.
If you have any personal question regarding my person, don't hesitate to contact me.
Why am I the one I am?
I deeply believe, that the addition of decisions in context with my surrounding, makes me be the person I am. You are in direct connection with your environment and yet you have the a free choice which decision you will take in each situation.
Recently I thought about the reasons why I became a glücklichtrainer (which means happiness coach in German) and author of my blogs. Where does this passion come from? I asked myself what it was, that made me passionate as a kid:
**Simple answer. I loved adventure stories, especially in the wild west!** But what is the connection between those stories and my job today?
What did I dream about when I was little?
Adventurers, riding through the wilderness, sleeping outside in the woods are created the same fascination as Native Americans who lived in a symbiosis whith their environment. Obviously I liked the idea of moving by your own means, exploring my limits and the pure joy of always seeing as far as the horizon – besides the power of words.
When the adventurers in my imagination where sitting at the campfire in the evenings, they where telling stories, listened to each other and I was one of them.
These thoughts created images in my memory that I connect with freedom and self determination. When I think about them, my mind travels to far away places and goes on vacation.
In many of these adventure stories conflicts have to be solved. In one of Germany's most popular wild west stories the two bloodbrothers have to overcome cultural distances in their friendship over and over again. Two live their friendship they have to find compromises and listen to each other. Their friendship creates tension and to solve them they have to include the opposite opinion to find the solution. Their actions bring together people that would have never talked to each other. This inspires me.
What I do now:
For very long I didn't pay attention to my childhood memories and to be honest, I thought they were embarrasing because they would nowhere fit into my today business life. When starting my coaching business in 2009 I became aware, that I actually included many of the stories' motives into my daily life and work.
I travel a lot, meet the most different people, am independent, listen to peoples stories and try to find solutions with them.
I try to understand conflicts and want to help people find their own way to master them. If I managed to help somebody on his personal road to happiness, I feel good.
I learned that people only face problems that they are actually capable of solving themselves. You are bigger than your problems!
To discover this truth I had to face many problems myself. For very long I couldn't imagine that other people experience and view the world other than me. I had to go through personal failures to discover that. Nowadays I know that I won't anyones problems but I try to be a helping hand to find the solution.
My professional journey began when I was 21. I founded a coffee bar (break-fast) in Cologne, became a financial consultant (tecis AG) later, moved to Berlin, was a headhunter in the finance industry (LucasGroup), founded an online recruiting company (viasto GmbH) and later became the happylife.coach. As a career coach I was supporting the ESCP Europe Alumni.
I was born and grew up near Cologne, lived in the US for year, worked in an East German National park, lived in Cologne four years and in Berlin 9 years. Now I am traveling most of the time and have a home base in Thun, Switzerland and in Kizimkazi, Zanzibar.
Since 2009 I am coaching people on personal as well as business issues. To be successful on your pursuit of happiness means to be better at what you do while retaining and increasing your energy level.
This focus on personal strengths means specially for companies and teams to reach your goals faster and loose less energy on problems and frustration. I want to help on that.
To make to you smile is my desire!

With over ten years of experience, the Avera Research Institute has the expertise to assist the Avera Institute for Human Genetics' (AIHG) efforts to conduct clinical research. Several clinical studies are currently being conducted.
Psychiatric Pharmacogenomics: One clinical study focused on a small, defined population residing at the South Dakota Developmental Center (SDDC), which serves individuals with developmental disabilities and co-occurring psychiatric disorders. This population was selected after the state approached AIHG to help reduce individual patient's medication burden and optimize prescription therapy to improve clinical outcomes. Interestingly, eleven of the 150 residents of SDDC utilize over $1,000 per month just for medications.
Approximately 50 residents with high numbers of medications used per month had been approached to participate in the study. Eligibility of residents was determined by the treatment team which consists of 3-4 of the following professionals: treating psychologist, behavior therapist, case manager, supervisors, counselors, dietitians, physician assistants, occupational therapists and physical therapists.
The goal of the study was to develop a process for utilizing pharmacogenomic analysis as a strategy to improve the quality of life, increase safety, reduce medication burden and enhance effectiveness of medications in people with psychiatric illnesses and developmental disabilities. Ultimately, this interdisciplinary service could be developed into a standard screening and consultation tool for healthcare providers to utilize when determining the most appropriate medication for their patients.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD): ADHD affects approximately 10-12 percent of school-aged children in the United States, making it one of the most common psychiatric disorders in children. The discrepancy in diagnosis and treatment of ADHD among girls may contribute to a reduced number of girls reaching adulthood with the diagnosis of ADHD. Because the prevalence of ADHD does not decline as significantly with adulthood as once thought, it is suggested a much higher incidence of undiagnosed ADHD symptoms exists among adult women. A clinical study has been designed to determine if offering relative-risk genotyping for ADHD and educating around the genetic and environmental contributions to ADHD may lead to greater healthcare acceptance in women who struggle with ADHD symptoms.
Obesity Genetics: AIHG is involved in the development of a product composed of all-natural ingredients. This nutriceutical has been tested for effectiveness in weight loss and changes in body composition in an obese population. Individuals who are at least 18 years old and have a body mass index (BMI) of at least 30 were able to participate in this trial. Results were recently published in the journal Phytomedicine.
Another clinical study involving this nutriceutical will evaluate its effectiveness in weight loss in patients taking an antipsychotic medication. With the development of second-generation antipsychotic medications comes a myriad of adverse health-related side effects including weight gain and obesity. These side effects may not only cause health-related deterioration in patients, but also compromise patients' willingness to remain on the medications.
Breast Cancer
Gynecologic Cancers
Obesity Genetics: Research is being done to look at weight loss reduction and cancer survivorship.

text: Poetry Introduction & Poetic Devices By Mary Qualey Airline High School Poetic License "The freedom given to poets to ignore standard rules of grammar or proper diction in order to create a desired artistic effect." Glencoe Literature Book Poetry Redefined Literary expression that emphasizes the line, not the sentence, as the unit of composition. Traditional characteristics: • emotional, imaginative language • use of metaphor, similie, & other figures of speech • divided into stanzas • use of rhyme and regular patterns of meter Types of Poetry • Lyrical poetry •Narrative poetry • Imagist Poetry • "Confessional poetry" • Ballad • Elegy Ballad A form of verse to be sung or recited. F. B. Gum describes the ballad as "a poem meant for singing, quite impersonal in material, probably connected in its origins with the communal dance." Me & Bobby McGee by Janis Joplin Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waiting for a train And I's feeling nearly as faded as my jeans. Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained, It rode us all the way to New Orleans. I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandanna, I was playing soft while Bobby sang the blues. Windshield wipers slapping time, I was holding Bobby's hand in mine, We sang every song that driver knew. Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose, Nothing don't mean nothing honey if it ain't free. And feeling good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues, You know feeling good was good enough for me, Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee. From the Kentucky coal mines to the California sun, Hey, Bobby shared the secrets of my soul. Through all kinds of weather, through everything that we done, Hey Bobby baby kept me from the cold. One day up near Salinas, Lord, I let him slip away, He's looking for that home and I hope he finds it, But I'd trade all of my tomorrows for one single yesterday To be holding Bobby's body next to mine. Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose, Nothing, that's all that Bobby left me, yeah, But feeling good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues, Hey, feeling good was good enough for me, hmm hmm, Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee. Richard Cory by Paul Simon They say that Richard Cory owns one half of this whole town, With political connections to spread his wealth around. Born into society, a banker's only child, He had everything a man could want: power, grace and style. But I work in his factory And I curse the life I'm living And I curse my poverty And I wish that I could be, Oh, I wish that I could be, Oh, I wish that I could be Richard Cory. Confessional Poetry Movement started in the 1950s Poets write about their own personal experience in an open, direct style Examples: Robert Lowell, Anne Sexton, Sylvia Plath Papa was a Rolling Stone by The Temptations It was the third of September; that day I'll always remember, 'cause that was the day that my daddy died. I never got a chance to see him;never heard nothin' but bad things about him. Mama I'm depending on you to tell me the truth.(Spoken)Mama just looked at him and said, "Son,(Sung)Papa was a rollin' stone. Wherever he laid his hat was his home. And when his died, All he left us was alone." Verse 2 Hey, mama, I heard Papa call himself a jack of all trades. Tell me, is that what sent Papa to an early grave? Folks say Papa would beg, borrow or steal to pay his bills. Hey, Mama, folks say Papa was never much on thinkin'; Spend most of his time chasin' women and drinkin'! Mama, I'm depending on you to tell me the truth. (Spoken) Mama just hung her head and said, "Son, (To Chorus) Change Gon' Come by Sam Cooke I was born by the river in a little tent Oh and just like the river I been a runnin' ever since It's been a long, a long time coming but I know A change gon' come oh yes it will It's been too hard living but I'm afraid to die Cuz I don't know what's up there beyond the sky It's been a long, a long time coming but I know A change gon' come oh yes it will I go to the movie, and I go downtown Somebody keep tellin me "don't hang around"It's been a long, a long time coming, but i know A change gon' come oh yes it will Then I go to my brother And I say "brother, help me please" But he winds up knocking me Back down on my knees There been times that I thought I wouldn't last for long Now think I'm able to carry on It's been a long, along time coming but I know A change gon' come, oh yes it will What's Going On by Marvin Gaye Mother, mother There's too many of you crying Brother, brother, brother There's far too many of you dying You know we've got to find a way To bring some lovin' here today Ya Father, father We don't need to escalate You see, war is not the answer For only love can conquer hate You know we've got to find a way To bring some lovin' here today Picket lines and picket signs Don't punish me with brutality Talk to me, so you can see Oh, what's going on What's going on Ya, what's going on Ah, what's going on In the mean time Right on, baby Right on Right Elegy Poem that mourns a death or other great loss Candle in the Wind by Elton John Goodbye Norma Jean Though I never knew you at all You had the grace to hold yourself While those around you crawled They crawled out of the woodwork And they whispered into your brain They set you on the treadmill And they made you change your name And it seems to me you lived your life Like a candle in the wind Never knowing who to cling to When the rain set in And I would have liked to have known you But I was just a kid Your candle burned out long before Your legend ever did Candle in the Wind by Elton John Goodbye England's rose; may you ever grow in our hearts. You were the grace that placed itself where lives were torn apart. You called out to our country, and you whispered to those in pain. Now you belong to heaven, and the stars spell out your name. And it seems to me you lived your life l ike a candle in the wind: never fading with the sunset when the rain set in. And your footsteps will always fall here, among England's greenest hills; your candle's burned out long before your legend ever will. Tears in Heaven by Eric Clapton Clapton wrote this about his 4-year-old son, Conor, who died when he fell out of a 53rd floor window in his mother's apartment in New York City. At the time, Conor was Clapton's only child. would you know my name if i saw you in heaven would it be the same if i saw you in heaven i must be stong and carry on 'cause i know i don't belong here in heaven would you hold my hand if i saw you in heaven would you help me stand if i saw you in heaven i'll find my way through night and day cause i know i just can't stay here in heaven beyond the door there's peace i'm sure but i know there'll be no more tears in heaven time can bring you down time can bend your knees time can break your heart have you beggin please beggin please would you know my name if i saw you in heaven would it be the same if i saw you in heaven beyond the door there's peace i'm sure but i know there'll be no more tears in heaven Imagist Poetry Name given to a movement in poetry, originating in 1912 and represented by Ezra Pound, Amy Lowell, and others, aiming at clarity of expression through the use of precise visual images.

CHORUS: At the copa (CO!) Copacabana (Copacabana) the hottest spot north of Havana (here) at the copa (CO!) Copacabana music and passion were always in fashion At the copa.... they fell in love His name was Rico he wore a diamond he was escorted to his chair, he saw Lola dancing there and when she finished, he called her over but Rico went a bit to far Tony sailed across the bar and then the punches flew and chairs were smashed in two there was blood and a single gun shot but just who shot who? REPEAT CHORUS At the copa... she lost her love Her name is Lola, she was a showgirl, but that was 30 years ago, when they used to have a show now it's a disco, but not for Lola, still in the dress she used to wear, faded feathers in her hair she sits there so refined,and drinks herself half-blind she lost her youth and she lost her Tony now she's lost her mind REPEAT CHORUS At the copa... don't fall in love don't fall in love Thunder Rolls by Garth Brooks Three thirty in the morning Not a soul insight The city's lookin' like a ghost town On a moonless summer night Raindrops on the windshield There's a åstorm moving in He's headin' back from somewhere That he never should have been And the thunder rolls And the thunder rolls Every light is burnin' In a house across town She's pacin' by the telephone In her faded flannel gown Askin' for miracle Hopin' she's not right Prayin' it's the weather That's kept him out all night And the thunder rolls And the thunder rolls The thunder rolls And the lightnin' strikes Another love grows cold On a sleepless night As the storm blows on Out of control Deep in her heart The thunder rolls She's waitin' by the window When he pulls into the drive She rushes out to hold him Thankful he's alive But on the wind and rain A strange new perfume blows And the lightnin' flashes in her eyes And he knows that she knows And the thunder rolls And the thunder rolls The thunder rolls And the lightnin' strikes Another love grows cold On a sleepless night As the storm blows on Out of control Deep in her heart The thunder rolls She runs back down the hallway To the bedroom door She reaches for the pistol Kept in the dresser drawer Tells the lady in the mirror He won't do this again Cause tonight will be the last time She'll wonder where he's been This powerpoint was kindly donated to www.worldofteaching.com http://www.worldofteaching.com is home to over a thousand powerpoints submitted by teachers.

Looks like people using simple Net tech can get government info online really well, like at USASpending.gov. It was sponsored by Senators Obama and Coburn, but effected mostly by OMB Watch in conjunction with Sunlight Foundation. (More details here.)
A really good effort has been led by Carl Malamud, An Effort to Upgrade a Court Archive System to Free and Easy, talks about the effort, and a legitimate problem with this kind of thing:
To Mr. Malamud, putting the nation's legal system behind a wall of cash and kludge separates the people from what he calls the "operating system for democracy." So, using $600,000 in contributions in 2008, he bought a 50-year archive of papers from the federal appellate courts and placed them online. By this year, he was ready to take on the larger database of district courts.
Those courts, with the help of the Government Printing Office, had opened a free trial of Pacer at 17 libraries around the country. Mr. Malamud urged fellow activists to go to those libraries, download as many court documents as they could, and send them to him for republication on the Web, where Google could get to them.
Aaron Swartz, a 22-year-old Stanford dropout and entrepreneur who read Mr. Malamud's appeal, managed to download an estimated 20 percent of the entire database: 19,856,160 pages of text.
Unfortunately, many involved neglected to remove personally identifying information, like Social Security Numbers.
I don't feel that's a problem with electronic records so much as with inappropriate behavior on the part of certain partcipants.

It's been a few weeks since the investors in Milwaukee Mile Holdings LLC exercised their option to get out of the racing business at the Milwaukee Mile by December 2010.
That group and representatives of the State Fair met last week, presumably to work out an exit strategy. In the meantime, it's becoming increasingly clear that Dominic and Frank Giuffre, two brothers who have had experience managing racing at the historic racetrack and who have expressed interest in getting back into the business, don't like what the state is offering.
Frank Giuffre said this week that his group, which also includes the Decker family of Eagle River, wouldn't be able to make any money under the current agreement. They need something that makes the investment worthwhile, Giuffre said.
The Deckers, who run the Snowmobile Derby in Eagle River, have some interest in managing the racetrack, Chuck Decker said this week.
All of this is putting pressure on the State Fair to do something, or risk seeing the racetrack go to seed. And if the State Fair yields to the Giuffre team with a new agreement, Milwaukee Mile Holdings LLC might reasonably ask why State Fair officials didn't renegotiate the agreement they have.
Milwaukee Mile Holdings has asked State Fair officials to end the yearly licensing fee it has to pay to continue racing at the Mile. Last year, that fee was $700,000.
In addition, Milwaukee Mile covets a piece of real estate near the Pettit National Ice Center. It wants that land for development, and has said it is willing to share any profits with the State Fair. Fair officials are cool to that idea.
But the State Fair doesn't want to renegotiate a new deal with Milwaukee Mile Holdings, especially since they redid the agreement early last year.
One possible interested party is Marcus Lemonis, the head of Camping World and a businessman who already has strong ties to motor sports. Lemonis was briefly involved with Milwaukee Mile Holdings last year, but pulled out abruptly, saying he didn't like their management style.
Now sources are saying he might be interested in taking over the racetrack. Lemonis has not returned repeated phone calls asking about his possible interest in the racetrack.

Who are you guys?
2 year old patterdale terrier
We have a Patterdale X rescue ( but looks Patterdale) we got him from Battersea at 15 weeks and he's nearly 3 now. I don't have small children and I'm not sure he would fit into that type of family as he can be a bit mad and has mouthy moments. He is terrible with anything small and furry or feathery ,catches pigeons and his ambition is to kill a cat. We have a rabbit and have had to dog proof his house. He is very smart and easy to train but I am very careful about where he goes off lead as he could easily get distracted and end up down a fox hole. He is a bit of a Velcro dog and follows me around all day and if I go upstairs he sits at the bottom waiting for me to come down. Mine gets at least 90 minutes exercise per day ,mostly off lead. He is very good about being left alone for a few hours. I think the thing to remember is that Patterdales are typical terriers with all the terrier traits .
Ah Patterdales. I could happily talk all day on the subject. I'm on my second Patterdale. First was a patterdale / Lakeland cross and current dog is all patterdale.
I agree with a lot of what Floralnomad has said. My youngest child was 6 when we had out first Patterdale. I'm not sure how good it would have been if my child had been much younger than that. Not that I think the dog would have harmed the child, but they can be quite boisterous. My first one wasn't mouthy at all, but the current one is.
Agree with comments about furred and feathered things, being smart and being Velcro dogs.
Both of mine have been unreliable off lead. The urge to chase is very strong.
IME they seem to calm down around 2-3 years old. My first dog was a real handful as a pup. he dug lots of holes in the garden and chewed the door frames. He ate the plaster off part of the kitchen wall one day when we were out for a few hours. He would mark his territory by peeing or pooping in houses that he visited. My name, BastardDog, comes from when we first had him and we used to be constantly muttering about the "bastard dog".
Our current dog is a rescue. We think he's about 2 and he is really good even though he doesn't seem to have been trained.
I love Patterdales for their personality. They are not boring dogs and they're very loyal. They'll always be my breed of preference.
Funnily my son calls ours the bastard hound !
I know 2 sets of people with Patterdales - they love them, but they are hard work. Def full on terriers.
One owner commented that you rarely see an elderly Patterdale as they are so fearless (i.e they usually end up dead through some mishap rather than old age). One of the ones I know has terrible recall and the other has to be closely watched around food - he will snaffle any food left lying around, including recently a kebab with wooden stick still in it (an expensive snack had it not been for pet insurance. )
Are you an experienced dog owner?
Forgot to say I also exercise my patterdale for one and a half to two hours a day, although in my case that's mainly on lead. That time reduced with my old patterdale and by the time he was 7+ he was happy with about 40 mins a day.
My old Patterdale fractured his nose so determined was he to retrieve a bit of sausage that had fallen between two paving slabs at a BBQ. He had a permenantly wonky nose after that.
I have a patterdale xborder terrier lovely family dog, loves everyone. Can be unpredictable with other dogs and take on anything, typical terrier really. Had him since dd was two. Would be cautious about that age tescue we have a rescue terrier too we call him bastard dog
Apparently I read somewhere that per head of dog type they are the most likely to get run over because of their habit of running out of open doors. you do need an entry and exit strategy if you have one. I think the bad recall is very common but in a lot of cases just needs better management ie finding suitable places to let them off ,I would never let mine off near any livestock ( chases everything). wildlife ( kills everything) or ponds ( birds). so it can be quite restrictive. I think they're ideally suited to live near the coast. Mine actually doesn't ever come back to me but I tell him down and he waits for me to get to him. I think its an independence issue. They are lovely around the house though and very loving. A lot of them aren't good with other dogs though as well.
Hmm, thanks for the comments.
We have three DC, youngest 4 1/2 but the size of a 6 year old, and also two cats. Dog has been around cats though, cats have limited experience with dogs, DC godmother brings her dog on visits and cats sit up a height glaring at it. Maybe not the wisest thing to get I'm.
Most rescue dogs around here are staffies and labs and I'm not keen on either. Would prefer a smallish breed.
I'm interested to read about the bad recall, my patterdale x NEVER comes back, little bastard thinks once he is off the lead then he can go just where the hell he likes. I've had dogs all my life, including a rescue rottie with issues and they have all had excellent recall, but this one, forget it, i have stopped letting him off the lead now apart from in the woods.
See that's the total opposite to me as woods are one of the places that mine would definitely not be let off as he'd find something to hunt and end up down a hole. On a field he's fine because he's so ball obsessed you can keep his attention.
I'm wondering if poor recall is just an all round terrier thing as I have a Border who pretty much pleases himself. He is ok unless he something catches his eye and he just takes flight. It would be a sight to behold as he looks fabulous in full flight but he is usually careering in an unstoppable frenzy towards dog or person unknown. I am pretty good at managing him but maybe once in every 25 encounters I am not quick enough . I find it easier in woods too as easier to see things before he does as he is usually nose to the floor or bunny hopping over fallen trees.
There are lots of terriers around my way and we have come across a few patterdales but they have all been workers. Seem like lovely energetic terrier though. Don't know if all are the same but the ones we have met have all been (covered in mud!) and very focused on the task in hand. A couple of owners have stopped to stroke my dog and their are far to busy ferreting in bushes to give us even a glance.
Mayflower Sanctuary is near Doncaster, Dogwatch are in West Midlands and have some lovely dogs on their website, Many Tears as mentioned, Second Chance Rescue in Derby, RSDR operate in Bulgaria but can bring to UK, SOS Animals UK in Spain, Desperate Greekies (they have an FB page but you have to join), also Action Aid for Animals work with a wide network of rescuers in Romania. Other people in the Doghouse have adopted from SOS Animals and Action Aid for Animals and have had positive experiences. Good luck in your search!

Edit Article
wikiHow to Train a Golden Retriever
Do you have an unruly Goldie? This article will deal with the four "building block" commands that you will need.
1Recognize the first basic commands to teach your Golden Retriever.
- Sit – Your Goldie will sit down. This is self explanatory.
- Stay – Your Goldie will stay where it is currently standing, even if you should walk away.
- Lie – Your Goldie will lie down on the floor
- Heel – Your Goldie will follow you as you walk.
2Have patience before beginning to train your dog. The Golden Retriever is one of the most intelligent dog breeds in the world, so don't be frustrated if he or she doesn't pick up on anything on your first few sessions.
3Choose a selection of tasty treats. Reserve these treats for your Goldie for when you are training him/her.
4Start with the sit. Have your dog standing in front of you, and hold the treat firmly in your hand above the dog's head. Move the treat towards its shoulders. Gently push their bottom to the ground. Praise the dog and give it the treat. Repeat, this time introducing the command - "sit." Continue repeating this step, using the command each time, until your dog seems to have learned the trick.
5Move onto lying down, once your dog has learned to sit on command. Once your dog sits, you can teach it to lie down. Have it sitting in front of you and hold the treat firmly in your hand. Move it towards the floor. As your dog starts to go down, move it at ground level towards you. Once it is lying down, praise and reward. Repeat this step, but introduce the command this time. Continue repeating the method, with the command included every time, until your dog seems to have learned the command.
6Move to the heel command. This is surprisingly easy. Have your dog on a short leash, on your left. Hold a treat in your right hand, about level with your lower ribs in the center of your body.
7Make sure your dog knows the treat is there. Walk away and give the heel command. Keep its attention on you and don't be afraid to keep repeating the command. Stop and praise your dog every few yards, giving rewards and attention.
8As you get better at this, slowly increase the length of the leash until it's long but loose. To keep his attention on you, use other commands. For example, introduce a stop command (the dog should stop but remain standing), the sit command and/or the lie command.
9Finish with the final building block, the stay command. Tie your dog up at first if necessary. Get the dog in the sit or lie position and firmly - but not angrily - tell him to stay. Take two steps away but remain facing him. Count to three. Then return and praise. Don't expect him to remain still at first.
10Practice stay. The stay command generally needs the most practice. Eventually you will be able to untie him and turn your back.
11Make it feel comfortable with you and add new tricks every once in a while.
Community Q&A
My dog is four years old and very obedient. How can I train him to be a service dog for me?wikiHow ContributorTeach him commands for your needs. Then, just carry on from there.
We got our puppy about two months ago; she bites and barks at me, and she runs from me when I call her. What should I do?wikiHow ContributorShe thinks she is the boss. Be firm with her, but do not punish or scare your dog. If you put her in a crate and she whines, don't automatically come back to her, otherwise she will think she is the boss.
How do I get him to shake hands?wikiHow ContributorIf you want your dog to learn how to shake hands, make sure it knows how to sit first. If it does, tell him to sit and hold a treat in your hand. Take your other hand and lift your dog's paw. Give it the treat. This trick takes a lot of practice. Just keep doing the same steps over and over again, and eventually the dog will lift its own paw for the treat. Just be really patient.
How do I get my puppy to speak?wikiHow ContributorSay, "speak," and give him a treat each time he barks.
How can I stop my dog from barking and whining at night?wikiHow ContributorSadly, you have to just leave the dog alone. If you pay attention to her, she'll think this is acceptable, even desirable behavior and it will continue.
How can I train my dog to stop jumping on visitors and biting them?wikiHow ContributorTeach her to sit, then stay, when people come over.
Which is better for training: a lab or golden retriever?wikiHow ContributorThey're both great because they're both easy to train!

- Keep training sessions to a maximum of 10 minutes - dogs have short attention spans and you don't want them getting bored. Have training sessions regularly.
- Think of your dog as well as your self.
- Don't overfeed your dog treats - Golden Retrievers are notorious for suffering from hip problems if overweight, and being overweight is simply not very healthy for your dog. Also remember that if you feed your dog from the table, it will likely start to beg constantly while you're eating. If you do feed your dog leftovers, give them to the dog away from the table and only after everyone has finished eating..
- Don't physically punish your dog - the word "no," strongly emphasized, will be enough. If he has been very naughty, a sharp tap on the nose will suffice, but never hurt your dog.
- Never forget that you are responsible for the dog, as if you were its parent. Be careful.
Things You'll Need
- One dog
- Treats
- One short leash
- One longer leash

Wow, I can see why you wanted to write this when you first reached this point in the game.

Pinch punch, the first of the month… and Happy St David's Day to one and all from not-so-sunny South Wales.
First Crocus
Crocus chrysanthus 'Zwanenburg Bronze' is lighting up the garden amidst the leaf litter.
February already, and the garden is quietly beginning to slough off its slumbers as the days draw out once more.
I've missed most of this autumn, one way or the other.
As summer draws towards a close, these are some of my highlights from the borders.
Chartreuse And Wine
In the spring, I found myself captivated by a container planting scheme in a magazine.
Wandering Star
Faith, our cat, has been missing for ten days now.
This week, the UK is enjoying a mini heatwave. The sudden high temperatures and humidity are a little challenging to work and sleep in, but mostly welcome after the drab and cool start to our summer so far.
May has skipped past with its usual quickstep.
Backwards and Forwards
Spring brings increased vigour and determination, as winter's sleepy plans are discarded, refined or set in motion.

Is Kevin Durant leaving Nike to sign with Under Armour? That seems to be main buzz surrounding the All-Star and reigning scoring champ Kevin Durant as he gets ready for another season with the Thunder. Much has been made of the fact that his endorsement with Nike — worth $60 million USD over seven years — expired last week with no follow-up or announcement coming from either camp in the week since. Under Armour – a brand that, like Durant, calls the DMV area home – is the name on everyone's lips as a likely next stop for Durant, particularly as it's being reported that the brand would be ready to shell out a monster $30 million USD a year for the star.
At this point everything remains speculation, but $30 million USD a year certainly is an attractive figure, particularly when compared to the $60 million USD over seven years – a figure that works out to just under $8.6 million USD a year. We'll have to wait for an official announcement to know where he ends up but what do you think? Would you like to see a big name like Durant make a move to Under Armour and, if so, would you be interested in his signature shoe? Sound off below and stay tuned for more.

Caleb: The Village
A guy with dark hair that ran over blue eyes approached me. I had my hand entwined in Sapphires and tightened my grip.
"Caleb! What…what?" he faltered as she stared at me.
I frowned, I had no idea who he was, I didn't remember anything. It was infuriating, "Do i know you?"
He was about to say something when he bent over, clutching at his heart in pain.
"Caleb," he spluttered, I felt the pain with him, some deep emotion was stirring in me, I wanted to help him, "He's doing something to my body…dad…he's alive. Like us…and friends with Trish. Go…there's a village not far from here…it's the detached house…I'm there. Caleb…" he took a deep breath and tried to speak. He tried to get closer but fell. I caught him. I gazed into his eyes, saw my own reflected in them.
"Are we... related?" he smiled up at me then and went limp in my arms.
I turned to Sapphire, she looked pained.
"I think I have to save him..." I said. She nodded.
"And I'm coming with," I tried to argue but one look into her defiant eyes and I could not say no.
I held her close to me, "hold tight," I muttered and jumped up into the air. The beats of my wings mingled with the sound of morning birds as the sun rose slowly in strokes of orange and fiery red. But none could be compared to the girl who held onto my waist. Something inside me roared with pleasure as her heart beat against my own.
Over a cliff face lay a small little village, the lights slowly turning off one by one.
We landed in a cul-de-sac. It was completely empty.
"Somethings wrong," Sapphire said looking around.
"Yes, there's no activity, a guy with wings landed in a street and no one so much as twitches a curtain and... there's no cars."
We looked for the house and came to the closest sounding one.
The door was slightly ajar.
I was going to open it when people emerged from the buildings. I held my arms out in front of Sapphire, protecting her.

Stefan Larsson:
What doctors can learn from each other
Different hospitals produce different results on different procedures. Only, patients don't know that data, making choosing a surgeon a high-stakes guessing game. Stefan Larsson looks at what happens when doctors measure and share their outcomes on hip replacement surgery, for example, to see which techniques are proving the most effective. Could health care get better — and cheaper — if doctors learn from each other in a continuous feedback loop?

Angry and Hurt
Anger broke out onto the surface and I could no longer control myself. Grabbing the edge of my father's sleeve, I dragged him down the street. We passed them on the way but I didn't dare look in their direction, in fear of doing something stupid like smacking Benetta across the face if I did.
Not that she didn't deserve it. She did. She deserved no respect from me, after the way she just looked at me. Full of pride and hate in her glare... How could family be treated like that?
I managed to hold back the dam that was just on the brink of escape, biting down hard on my tongue as curses formed on the tip. My dad didn't say anything as we walked back home. Silence existed. But it was better that way.
I was afraid to open my mouth, knowing that I would be an uncontrollable well of emotions if I did.

Government releases final report into National Access Regime - .PDF file.
By Justin Oliver and Bronwyn Fursey
The federal government has released the final report of the Productivity Commission's inquiry into the National Access Regime, in particular Part IIIA of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010.
The government will not respond until completion of its 'root and branch' review of competition law, announced on 3 December 2013. The prospect of any reforms recommended by the commission is still quite distant, and the issues may be revisited during that review.
The initial Productivity Commission inquiry follows on from the Council of Australian Governments' Competition and Infrastructure Reform Agreement (CIRA)…
