Motivational Interviewing: What It Is, How It Works, and How to Learn It
Presented by William R. Miller, PhD on 02-21-2014 at 9 a.m. Pacific to 11 a.m. Pacific (2 p.m. Eastern)
Motivational interviewing (MI) is widely recognized as an evidence-based, brief treatment method for helping to strengthen motivation for and commitment to change. Initially developed to treat people with alcohol and other drug problems, MI has spread rapidly into applications within healthcare, criminal justice, social work, coaching, rehabilitation, health promotion, and schools.
Professor Miller will describe the clinical method of this interactive interview and detail how MI has evolved over 30 years of development, drawing on a large clinical research literature on the efficacy, process mechanisms, and training of MI. This presentation is not intended to teach clinical skillfulness in the use of MI, but rather to provide an understanding of the clinical method, how it can be useful in practice, what is known about why it works, and how clinicians can develop competence in delivering it.
This web conference is intermediate instructional level and designed to help clinicians:
- Describe the clinical method of motivational interviewing and its relationship to client-centered counseling.
- Recognize at least five types of change-talk.
- Identify the four component processes that comprise motivational interviewing.
- Distinguish "resistance" from sustain talk and discord.
- Differentiate a "decisional balance" from motivational interviewing.

The person that's trying to be a helper tends to make the arguments for change. And when you do that, the natural result is that the client will give you the counter-arguments for change. Because in essence what's going on is you're externalizing the person's internal conflict with the helper taking the role of the pro-change side, leaving the client the other side.
So it's kind of like externalizing the person's conflict, with one person taking the pro-change side and the other taking the counter-change side and acting it out. And that might be alright except for a social-psychological principle that we listen to ourselves talk and thereby learn what we believe. And we're more likely to believe ourselves than we are to believe someone else who is talking to us.
So if I counsel in a way in which I'm arguing for change and my client thereby argues against it, it's exactly backwards from the way it should be. And what I want to be doing is to counsel in a way that causes the person to make their own argument for change, to voice their own motivations.
Now, this is very grounded in the work of Carl Rogers. About 80% of what we do is person-centered counseling; it's based on those fundamental skills that Rogers described so well in the 1950s. And as Rogers believed, the thinking is the person already has within them what they need, and it's a question of calling it forth. And so rather than trying to install things in a person that they're missing, coming from a kind of a deficit model, the model here is to call out that which the person already has—to invite them to voice their own reasons and their own motivations for change. And so it's very much in the humanistic, person-centered tradition of psychotherapy. - William R. Miller, PhD

Through the chill November air they swooped, resplendent in the England colours, using the space offered to them, adopting the most delicate of angles, making lengthy flights across the hallowed turf, producing abrupt changes of direction which would have bamboozled any defence, the crowd behind them to a man as Twickenham's rebuilding process bore unexpected fruit.
The demolition of HQ's South stand has produced an unexpected side-effect: a set of thermals ideal for paper dart throwing. The Twickenham fans had a vast supply of red and blue paper used to make a giant flag for television, and thus sought to create their own entertainment given that on the pitch they were offered one grinding rolled maul after another among an endless series of graunching reset scrums.
The mixed feelings of the faithful were broadcast in other ways: boos each time the maul was set up in midfield or the ball held in the back of the scrum outside the Wallaby 22, whispered renditions of Sweet Chariot. The fans were in two minds: they wanted the win but lamented the sterility of England's style, knowing that victory would be merely a breathing space before the real opposition arrives this Saturday.
As the England full-back Josh Lewsey implicitly accepted, what his side had to offer against Australia will not be adequate against Graham Henry's 30 all-conquering All Blacks. "If we manage to mix our game slightly more we will give ourselves a chance of winning. We have to rely on what we do with the ball more rather than relying on possession. I can't see us dominating 70% of possession next week."
A reminder of the wider context was there on a fan's T-shirt on Rugby Road, which listed England's "magnificent seven" victories en route to the World Cup. The limited fare on offer - one side unable to scrummage, the other unwilling to look very far beyond that noble art - was a striking reminder of the lack of progress both the 2003 finallists have made in the past two years.
While it is hard to see Australia's front-row crisis being resolved this side of the World Cup, whether England can branch out into the more productive areas currently being opened up by the All Blacks and, to a lesser extent France, and - last spring at least - Wales remains the great unanswered question for the next 18 months. The portents from Saturday, in the things that happened away from the beetling figure of Andrew Sheridan, are not good.
The ball is still taken into contact rather than off-loaded readily in the tackle, lumbering front five forwards get in the way of backs, turnover ball - manna from heaven for France, New Zealand and Wales - is not punished mercilessly. Under-eight sides in the shires are exhorted to look for space but to their international role-models it seems to be truly the final frontier.
The ripostes from England are well worn: "If we look at the forward performance they took on Australia and did a very good job," said fly-half Charlie Hodgson. "If we can get success out of that then we might as well keep going." Or, as Lewsey put it: "When you have that much forward domination it would be silly not to play to that. You can be as aesthetically pleasing as you want but you have to win the game and that's what we did."
There is a counter argument, however, which is this: the All Blacks and company are not about aesthetics for the sake of it, but about scoring tries through intuition and wit rather than power, and if there is one context in which a back line can be unleashed it is when the tight five is making inroads in the loose and in the scrum, providing almost unlimited possession. "We had forward dominance and it was about playing to our strengths, when we are at parity up front we will need to use the ball slightly more," said Lewsey. "But to take on the best in the world we will need to learn to mix our game as well and that will come with experience."
At fly-half, Hodgson survived the sledging from the Wallabies and Lote Tuqiri in particular, to produce a brace of try-saving tackles along with a fine kicking display. "Tuqiri kept saying 'remember last year, how I missed last year', but after two kicks went over that seemed to shut him up. I've had doubters over my defence in the last few years but I was in the right place at the right time."
While the fly-half has finally moved out of Jonny Wilkinson's long shadow, he acknowledges he and the team around him need to do more. "You can't go on beating sides on forward power or defence, it has to be a combination of things, you get to a stage where you are combining well with forwards and backs."
"I wouldn't say there is any missing factor, it's just a matter of getting continuity together. It's about building understanding between you and it's the first time I've played with Tins at 12 and Noony at 13. If you look at the team that won the World Cup, they were together for ages, about six years previously, we have had one game together and it's a start."

Sharing Thoughts...of Diabetes Type 2
Article by: kjforce
Status: Finished
Genre: Health and Fitness
Who knew that two common kitchen items would have such significance on a world-wide issue.. Coffee and cinnamon have recently been recognized as foods that might be able to help improve blood sugar levels. However these are not magic bullets, and do not replace a balanced diet with exercise....But it certainly can't hurt to sprinkle the aromatic spice regularly onto your morning oatmeal…. Some foods, like white bread, convert almost immediately to blood sugar ,whereas other foods, like brown rice, are digested more slowly, causing a lower and gentler change in blood sugar. Below are just a few suggested foods which may help to keep your blood sugar in check…. Oatmeal can help control blood sugar -- buy the old fashioned, not the individual serving packets, as they are sweetened. Even though it's a carbohydrate , and is high in soluble fiber, it will help to keep you feeling fuller longer and is slower to digest so it won't raise your blood sugar as much or as quickly. That's important for people with type 2 diabetes, who may be overweight , and by reducing your weight significantly improves the glucose control. Barley which is also high in soluble fiber , may also help with blood glucose control. Although it is not as popular as oatmeal, it is suggested people try eating boiled pearl barley in place of rice. Besides oats and barley, most whole grains are going to be a great choice for a person with diabetes. Add plenty of non-starchy vegetables, such as spinach, green beans, legumes ( beans) and broccoli to your diet , these foods are high in fiber and low in carbohydrates, which make them ideal for people with diabetes. In contrast, starchy vegetables include potatoes, corn, winter squash, and peas , give us additional nutrients and keep our body in balance. Starchy vegetables have more carbohydrates and raise blood sugar more, so it is important to stick to portion controlled sizes, Recent evidence shows, that vegetables, nuts and certain fruits are healthy for people with diabetes, such as apples, bananas, coconuts and various nuts, pistachio' s are excellent Studies have found that a low-fat vegan diet may help type 2 diabetes patients to better manage their sugars , and the vegan group also lost more weight and lowered levels of bad cholesterol, because people with diabetes are more prone to heart disease.. Some diabetes patients don't eat strawberries because of their sweetness, but a cup of strawberries is a healthy snack that won't raise blood sugar that much, and are a much better choice than candy or cookies. They are high in fiber and water, low in calories and carbs an they give a feeling of fullness Meats, like Steak, skinless chicken breast and Fish which are high in protein, especially Salmon because it contains heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids, and don't affect blood sugar as much as carbohydrates and are good choices . Meat also contains of the mineral chromium which enables insulin to function properly and helps the body to metabolize carbohydrates. Some people with type 2 diabetes take chromium picolinate, a supplement ,to try to keep blood sugar under control. However research does not show enough evidence to support the theory… Drinking ice water is very important...however at times can become boring…. Go for sugar-free sparkling waters or selzer water...carbonated beverages come in various flavors, of citrus fruits , many sparkling waters have no carbohydrates or calories -- making them exceptionally good for blood sugar levels, and also weight control . *If your blood sugar reading is below 70 and you experience symptoms such as sweating , shaking or difficulty thinking clearly, you will need to raise the number immediately . You can drink a glass of orange juice , eat a few pieces of hard candy, a tablespoon of sugar or honey. Recheck again in 15 minutes to see if the levels have changed. If no change notify a physician. Aim for 70-130 before meals and less than 180 two hours after meals , even if your numbers are high,it's not too late for you to take control of your health and lower your blood sugar. One of the first steps is to monitor your levels each day. People who experience hypoglycemia several days a week .. should monitor their levels each day so they can make sure the numbers are within range. It is important to continue to track the numbers daily, so that lifestyle changes can be made as needed . *** If you experience any of the above and symptoms are not resolved….CONTACT your Healthcare provider immediately….If you are pregnant always consult with your physician. . One of the first steps is to monitor / check your levels several times a day, this will also help to determine what effect certain foods have on your blood levels...so keeping a record or journal can be beneficial.... There is no real answer to why some people get this disease…but my feelings are it starts as an auto-immune- deficiency ...where our body breaks down…stress/anxiety/strife play a large factor in many health issues…keeping positive and a healthy active lifestyle helps to promote good health… I live with this condition myself and wrote this article to share with the many others that are frustrated, as this is a rapidly growing issue worldwide...and spares no age….

Great article! Very informative. Many people have no concept of how much sugar is in our food (esp processed food)
M...Thank you for the visit and comments on my article, glad you liked it.. not sure what is going on, but I thought I had responded but there were two different e-mails...duh...oh well perhaps a late " April fool's " joke by the site... heard last night was still pretty cold in Canada...I will check out your writings here...shortly...
M... Thank you for stopping by and leaving a comment..
ironic, but , most of the cheaper filler foods are loaded with sugar to taste better, hence we are hooked.

text: Hi Everyone, I'm trying to get a custom software package to work on my domain server. BTW - it works just fine on a workstation. I don't remember having this problem with a simple WG server. What are the best practices for setting this up? I created a folder on the server let's call it "ABCFolder". The Exe and its Dlls are in this folder and the data is in a sub folder called \data. So it looks like this \abcfolder\data. The programmer said that this was the path that had to be used. Logged in as Admin When I start the program it comes up fine but the data files are not found. Where do I put this stuff ? Should it go in another place like "sysvol" or under program files? Does the fact that it is a domain have any thing to do with it? If I can't get it to work at the server console - I will never get it to work from a WS. Please help - any comments will be most welcomed. Thank You

Hi it's me Navi Love Machine,
I had an idea the other day, a crazy one. Why not send a letter to WB studios and see if I could someow end up bringing the Road Rovers back?
Yes I know, insane. Like a silly would-be fairytale
But hey I guess it's worth a try
Here the letter, I haven't mailed it yet
Tell me what you think. Ty
Dear Warner Brother Studios,
Hello, I'm just a regular guy who has been a good fan of the work that your company has produced over the years. Your company really knows how to create incredible movies (Ninja Assassin, The Hangover, and The Book of Eli were probably the coolest movies you have made so far. I enjoyed them all so much). Also you have created many great TV shows over the years. I remember back when that Kids WB show aired early weekday mornings and afternoons, along the new episodes every Saturday morning as well. Good times. You really had some cool and comical shows back then in the 90's, such as Detention, Hysteria, Batman Superman Adventures, Freakazoid, and of course, maybe the most memorable, The Aniamaniacs. Yet besides all those, there was one very special show that you created. It may have only spanned thirteen episodes, and was only on the air for three years. Still it was an amazing show. People still to this day watch it on , a lot. The Road Rovers.
This animated series about five regular canines being transformed into aanthropomorphic crime-fighting super dogs was probably the greatest kid's show you created in the 90's. Following the adventures of Hunter (the Golden Retriever), Colleen (the female Collie), Blitz (the Doberman, my personal favorite) Exile (the blue Husky), Shag (the Sheepdog), and Muzzle (the Rottweiler) battling their antagonists, and their comical gags (such as Colleens name game with Blitz) was a real enjoyment for me growing up. And still is, sometimes I go on YouTube to reminisce about this great show of yesteryear. So do many other people. In fact if you could take the time to go on , type in "Road Rovers," click on one or two of the episodes and read the reviews of the people who watched it (some only a week old) you'd see this show may be gone from TV land, but certainly not forgotten. Which bring me to the point of this letter.
First off no I'm not asking that the show be put on the air, or even that a DVD is made of the series (seeing as fans of the show can simply go on the internet and watch the episodes for free). I'm here to simply suggest and idea for an even bigger (and hopefully more profitable for you) plan. Seeing as the current pop culture trend in movies these days is having them based on old TV shows or books. Perhaps create a live action, or computer animated movie of Road Rovers. Warner Bros. has been creating some amazing movies thus far, and this would maybe be another great way to not only attract the youth of today, but also hook in some of the old fans of this show. Such as the YouTube viewers I mentioned earlier. Plus with today's special effects I'm sure you could really transform this old show into a real kick-butt pile of awesome. Along with being some good, family entertainment.
Well that's all I wanted to say. I'm just a regular guy throwing an idea in the suggestion box for you big businessmen. That's all this is. And I fully understand that this little idea may not come to life. Ever. Also, no I don't want any of the profits you make from this, should you choose to go with it. You don't even have to put my name in the credits. You're the guys with all the cash, technology and everything else. You deserve to have all the pieces of pie. I just put the idea out there. Thank you for taking the time to read this at least. I appreciate it. "TO THE POWER OF THE PACK! HOWL!"
Me (My real names on the original)
(regular, middleclass, teenage guy)
BTW Here's the address if anyone out their wants to join me in this idea
Warner Brother studios
4000 Warner Boulevard
Burbank, CA. 91522

EMD Millipore, Charles River Laboratories Ally for Improved Viral Clearance
EMD Millipore and Charles River Laboratories have inked an agreement to enhance viral clearance services. Under terms of the deal Charles River gains an exclusive license for EMD Millipore's TrueSpike™ technology, and the firms will collaborate to integrate TrueSpike into viral clearance services provided by Charles River.
The goal of the deal is to create higher purity virus preparations. This in turn is expected to help ensure validation success and regulatory compliance for biopharmaceutical manufacturers. TrueSpike enables removal of cell debris, DNA, and nonviral proteins from virus preparations used to validate biomanufacturing process virus clearance. Use of TrueSpike technology reduces the protein content of virus preparations used for validation studies up to 600-fold, according to the companies.
"This exclusive partnership with Charles River brings together their regulatory and viral clearance experience and our extensive knowledge of virus filtration and process engineering," says Christophe Couturier, vp of services and solutions, EMD Millipore. "The increased quality of virus preparations as delivered by TrueSpike technology will help ensure the success of our customers' validation studies conducted by Charles River."
Birgit Girshick, corporate vp of biopharmaceutical services at Charles River, adds, "Our goal at Charles River is to provide clients with a complete range of required services that meet their regulatory and scientific needs.

THE LEGAL implications of competitive tendering are among the issues to be discussed at a series of seminars organised by the Department of the Environment.
Seven events have been arranged across the country to explain the legislative and political context of the contracting out drive. Environment minister Sir Paul Beresford said the seminars will include speakers from his department, business and local authorities.
Under CCT legislation local authorities must submit 45 per cent of their legal work for competitive tendering.
Beresford said: "The success of CCT is now firmly established. It has allowed councils to save money and provide improved services across a range of areas such as waste management and catering."
He added that it can only work if all contractors involved are fully aware of what the process involves.
Seminars begin on 13 October in Birmingham.

64% of IT professionals in the Middle East think that data on mobile devices is not secure
Sophos survey of visitors to Gitex 2011 underlines concerns about mobile device security
Unsurprisingly, 58% of those polled felt that viruses were still the biggest threat to their corporate network. Of the respondents, 34% rated device theft or loss as the biggest threat, not surprising either given that mobile device security was such a hot topic for Sophos at Gitex this year.
More surprising perhaps was the fact that 32% of survey respondents said hackers were the biggest threat. Hacking is still a tiny percentage of the overall threat but the perception that it is an issue is most likely due to several high-profile attacks in recent months and the media coverage around this.
Another surprise was the fact that only 16.5% said social media was the biggest threat. Given that social media is widely used in the Middle East and is one of the major vectors for cyber criminals, this indicates that there is still a lack of understanding around social media and the threats it can pose to IT security.
Kamel Heus, Managing Director, MEA, Sophos, said: "To date, encryption has had a low rate of deployment in the Middle East, and there is a lack of regulation around data protection. However, it's no real surprise to us that almost two thirds of those surveyed felt their corporate data would not be secure if a mobile device was lost. Mobile device security was a really hot topic for us at Gitex this year, and in general the topic has quickly risen to the top of security agendas as organizations are beginning to get really concerned about the potential for damage if these devices are lost or stolen."
He continued: "We did something a bit different at Gitex this year and presented a series of educational seminars each day, which also covered mobile. The attendance and reaction of attendees was phenomenal and showed there's a real gap out there in terms of educating people on the threats and how to handle them. As a result, we intend to repeat these educational sessions in a series of free seminars in the GCC countries. This goes hand in hand with our mission to raise awareness about cyber crime and minimize the risks that companies are exposed to in the region".

Focusing on Paul
€ 149,99
Lieferbar innerhalb von 2-3 Tagen
Juli 2007
BeschreibungIn the early 1970's, due to serious epistemological flaws, the demise of traditional New Testament research paradigms became imminent. A new generation of scholars started the search for a fresh approach, based on scientifically sound principles. Working within the stimulating atmosphere of the New Testament Society of South Africa, the author was one of the pioneers in developing a new, multi-dimensional research approach for New Testament studies. The articles in the present volume, written over a period of 25 years, reflect part of this journey, as viewed from a Pauline perspective. Combining the positive aspects of the traditional biblical research paradigms with the important insights of modern linguistics, literary science, semantics and pragmatics, particularly rhetoric, the author investigates the convergence of various influences in Paul's pre-christian career. He proposes new possibilities of understanding Paul's language and style, such as hyperbolical contrasts, typical of his Semitic background. Various aspects of his strategies of persuasion are investigated, such as creating an ethos, vilification, alienation and re-identification. The majority of articles concentrate on central elements in Pauline theology: belief in the resurrection of Jesus, the centrality of grace, the in Christ and related formulae, faith and obedience, justification in Romans, Christian identity, ethics and ethos, as portrayed in Romans.

I told the nurses – another word that made me scream in frustration – that I should be discharged because I wasn't ill. The reason I didn't like the word 'nurses' was because it reminded me of hospitals, and as I have mentioned, I was not ill. No indeed! I was very well, much better than many people are in their whole life.
The day my parents told me where I was going, I screamed at them. Just once, briefly. And then I went to my corner and just sat there, rocking and rocking. My sister came to try and comfort me but it didn't work.
"You're not the one going to a funny farm," I told her, and her dark eyes filled with sympathetic tears.
"I know, Jenny," she said, and I knew she did. That night, she was the only one I would allow in my room as I packed the case full of the things I was taking. It was only a small case because there were limits, restrictions, on what I was allowed to take. From then on, my whole childhood was made of limits and restriction. It was made of rules.

Berklee is located in the Back Bay, which is one of the most expensive neighborhoods of Boston. Unfortunately, if you're a student who wants to be within walking distance of Berklee's campus, the surrounding neighborhoods of Downtown, Beacon Hill, and the Fens are all pretty expensive. Many students live in Allston, Mission Hill, or Brighton, all of which are connected to Berklee through the city's Green Line on the T. If you're adamant about living close to campus, make sure you keep your eyes peeled for listings in the area. Landlords know that there are a lot of students looking for housing in Back Bay, so sometimes they offer deals or cheaper housing. If you see one of these discounts, you should snag it quickly. Berklee has one of the most unique student bodies not just in Boston, but in the entire country. The students here are brought together through a common interest--music--and are all incredibly talented. If you walk through the campus here, you will see more street performers than in any other part of the city, and you will see students wearing guitar cases or carrying their instruments. Most of the students are artistic types, and many are hipsters. If you're searching for a roommate, you will find that most of the students are unique or peculiar, but this isn't a bad thing. After all, they might know about the band you didn't think anyone listened to or an indie movie you adore. And, like most of Boston, but especially here, mostly everyone has a liberal political view.
We currently have 37,115 apartments near Berkelee College of Music available for rent. If you're not sure how much an apartment will cost, the table below shows the average price by size.

Cher needs a separate dressing room for her wigs, Val Kilmer insists that nobody meets his eye on set and singer Moby wants 12 pairs of socks. These are just some of the demands that celebrities make either on or off stage, and they have become the benchmark of diva-dom. In the past, only top-rank Hollywood stars and stadium-level singers could make truly extravagant demands like the contractual "riders" above. But nowadays some of the biggest divas try to downplay their requirements, while the stars we all thought were down to earth are getting in on the act. And it seems that men can be as queeny in their demands as women.
Jennifer Lopez
"I do not have a big anything," J-Lo said yesterday, referring to her equally famous outsized entourage and bottom in an attempt to bolster her new, just-one-of-us, I'm-still-Jenny-from-the-block image. Nevertheless, the Latina diva often travels with a crew of 60 people, she has demanded seven (some say 10) dressing rooms for a Top of the Pops appearance, and frequently brings her entire family on tour.
That's reasonable: J-Lo's chief bodyguard has to keep up with her when she goes jogging, and still have enough puff to fight off would-be assailants.
That's weird: insists that trailers and dressing rooms be decked out in white, including candles, flowers, furniture, curtains ...
That's outrageous: demanded a 40ft (minimum!) trailer when shooting a charity video. Takes own DJ to parties.
Like her closest rival J-Lo, the Queen of Pop has, of late, attempted to portray herself as a woman of the people, washing the car with hubby and popping down to the shops in a tracksuit with the kids. But there's a reason that CBS's The Late Show ran a spoof list of "Madonna's Top 10 Hotel Demands" (including "complementary handcuffs on pillow" and "must accept 'Madonna dollars'") way back in 1993.
That's reasonable: insists that no one calls her Madge, husband Guy Ritchie's nickname for her.
That's weird: refused to do matinees when appearing on stage in Up For Grabs in the West End because of "recording commitments" (she was singing one song for Die Another Day).
That's outrageous: denied asking for bodyguards on stage, a secret exit from the theatre, or that her fellow actors shouldn't speak until spoken to during Up For Grabs. But she did get a lift home from the police one night when the traffic was heavy.
As the Princess of Pop, teen-queen Britney is following happily in her idol Madonna's footsteps, not least in her catering requirements.
That's reasonable: trays of fruit and vegetables and deli fare, bottles of Evian and "one case of assorted soda" (presumably whichever one she's advertising at the time).
That's weird: six large, clean bath towels, two boxes of Pop Tarts (!) and two boxes of cereal. How dirty, and hungry, can a girl get? (Rival Christina Aguilera, by the way, demands health food and a roll of film.)
That's outrageous: incoming calls are barred from her dressing room and she apparently charges the venue $5,000 if one is mistakenly put through.
Luciano Pavarotti
Let's not forget that the term "diva" originated in the opera world. Wherever the tenor, known as "Big Lucy", goes he issues a five-page contractual rider.
That's reasonable: no flowers anywhere backstage (pollen, apparently, can affect the voice). A reinforced bed at hotels (self-explanatory, really).
That's weird: won't sign autographs at his hotel, and will allegedly sue promoters if this arrangement is not complied with.
That's outrageous: "No distinct smells near the artist."
Elton John
Britain's favourite ivory-tickling, football-supporting, hissyfitthrowing megastar is infamous for his "shop 'n' strop" habits. It would be a disappointment if he didn't put on a few airs when he's on the road.
That's reasonable: he does not like wearing backstage passes: it's fair to expect security staff to recognise him.
That's weird: fresh flowers should be placed in his dressing room but "no chrysanthemums, lilies, carnations or daisies".
That's outrageous: the room must be kept at a constant temperature, which is "60°F in summer and 70°F in winter".
Jools Holland
Times have clearly changed since the piano-playing presenter toured with Squeeze and took only three socks with him (he'd rotate them so one was always clean). Now the chirpy chappie issues a list of demands as long as a keyboard solo whenever he appears with his Rhythm and Blues Orchestra.
That's reasonable: five bottles of "good-quality" champagne and 50 "clean" pint glasses for the 24-man band.
That's weird: twelve "local" postcards with first-class stamps on them.
That's outrageous: three dressing rooms for Jools's sole use, including a "separate washroom/toilet which must not be accessible to members of the public". Oh, and comperes are contractually forbidden from asking the band for an encore.Reuse content

So, a few weeks ago, in an effort to reverse the effects of these free weekly meals, I decided to take to the road with 75,000 of my closest friends and attempt to move my ever-enlarging butt 7 1/2 miles -- from the Bay to the Breakers.
Of course, I thought, this brief flirtation with exertion needn't be devoid of all culinary concern. I mean, a boy's gotta eat, don't he? And there was the column to think about.
But who the hell was I going to get to cook me dinner at 8 on a Sunday morning?
I considered the famous group of salmon who spawn upstream each year, running the race backward from finish line to start. But the possibility of them getting cute with kelp-themed dishes seemed a little too high.
I could just drop trou and head naked to Footstock for the free PowerBar/Crystal Geyser buffet. But who was I kidding? Me and my back hair just aren't ready for public display. And I didn't really see SF Weekly bailing me out if I happened to be taken in on one of the SFPD's annual symbolic arrests.
Then I remembered the always-popular Tiki Hut. That fully functioning party on wheels somehow each year makes its way through the madding crowd in raging tropical style. They must have pretzels on the bar, I thought. That's dinner.
I typed "Tiki Hut" into the search engine, and minutes later was on the phone with Darren Schleth, one of the Walnut Creek-based brothers behind the bamboo wheel of the Tiki Hut.
Much to my delight Darren informed me that not only were there pretzels on the bar, but a full array of appetizers for the trip. And, at the finish line -- an actual spaghetti dinner prepared each year by his mom.
So this week, The Man Who Came to Dinner is pleased to present these very exclusive excerpts from ...
A Glutton's Journal: Athlete for a Day
6 a.m., Race Day The alarm goes off. The hangover hits. Snooze bar.
6:15 a.m. I'll skip the shower. Snooze bar.
6:30 a.m. Fuck breakfast. Snooze bar.
6:45 a.m. Shit! Drag ass up. Pull on running shoes. Grab newly purchased Hawaiian shirt (a Tiki Hut requirement). Brush teeth. Swallow aspirin. Split.
7:02 a.m. 24th Street BART Station. Crowd looks too happy. Stomach and head make compelling case to abort mission. Feet prevail, moving me forward into packed train.
7:27 a.m. Starting line, Howard at Spear. I locate the familiar thatched roof of the Tiki Hut in the distance. Attempting to make my way through the sea of bodies, I am struck powerfully in the side of the face by one of the thousands of corn tortillas being tossed, frisbeelike, about the crowd as part of some annoying promotional stunt. Head makes a final appeal to turn around, go home. But nose smells dinner in the distance.
Reaching the Tiki Hut I am greeted by Leslie Schleth, Darren's sister-in-law, who signs me in and sets me up with a disposable wristband identifying me as one of the 120 official Tiki Hut participants this year.
I immediately test out the magic wristband by introducing myself to Leslie's husband, Derek, the brother who started it all back in 1991 with a portable blender and a backpack filled with margarita mix. Standing inside the elaborate Tiki Hut, Derek passes on his tradition by filling my plastic cup with a frosty frozen margarita. Happy Sunday.
As I begin to drink my breakfast I take a moment to survey the ornate structure that for the next several hours will serve as the center of our existence. The Tiki Hut is about the size of a large San Francisco bedroom, 20 feet long by 10 feet wide. An oak bar runs around all four sides, creating a spacious area in which the three bartender-brothers can run the show.
In addition to the bottomless margaritas, the Hut offers four beers and Bloody Marys on tap. Everything is kept cool by an on-board generator that also runs the blenders, ceiling fan, two TV sets, surveillance camera, and stereo system with 200-CD changer.
Wait, I think, this is better than most San Francisco apartments.
8 a.m. Somewhere, I imagine, a gun has gone off and people have started to run. But I and the other 119 floral-clad, grass-skirted Hutters continue to drink. The music blares. Dancing breaks out.
8:42 a.m. The crowd before us begins to stir as we realize it's actually time to start the run. I grab onto one of the 10 or so ropes that extend from the sides of the Hut. Up front a Hutter on the steering post gently guides our course. Pulling the structure on level ground is fairly easy. Between the few of us on the ropes and the casual hands on the bar, the Hut seems to run all by itself on an alcohol-based fuel.
Mile 0.5 All this activity is making me thirsty. Olin, the youngest brother on the bartender team, senses my need, refilling my cup even before I can ask. I introduce myself to my Hut-pulling neighbor, Cher, who, I quickly surmise, began the race-day festivities a few hours before me. Cher is happy. Very happy.
Mile 1.0 A minor victory in itself. I am already feeling the effects -- of the margaritas. As we walk, surrounded by thousands of costumed runners, I catch sight of a group of girls all dressed as Britney Spears. Hello, ladies. Out of the corner of my eye, I notice one runner actually using a cell phone. I briefly consider moving in to trip him before realizing my cup has somehow emptied itself again. Oh, Olin ...
Turning to Cher I observe, "Just 6 1/2 miles to go. That sucks!"
"Just think how you'll feel at the end," she suggests, referring to her highly active Bloody Mary cup.

My First Trip Abroad
... the background and people in medieval costume running around. Turns out a Japanese tv show was filming that day. If only I brought my medieval garb I could have been in extra in some Japanese tv show. The day was pretty much sent walking around the small city and taking in the views. On such a nice day it was a much needed break. ...
Day 51 - Republica San Marino City/State
... Rocca or the rock. In fact it served as a prison for a couple hundred years until 1975. We walked the spine of the mount towards the North where an aerial tram takes visitors up the mountain. We visited the church as well as several plazas and government buildings along the way.
We enjoyed a lunch in the old town and Kathy got side tracked by a pair of boots in one of the shop windows, we didn't leave empty handed! After about three hours we left San Marino ...
'Nothing' but an evening beach stroll
... except to say that we finished the day feeling very relaxed'. We topped off our relaxing day doing something by an evening beach walk.

Farewell to beautiful Venice

We both loved our Milan ...

text: So I just got a new GPU, an AMD HD 7750. I have spoken to the XFX (The Vendor) about the issue and they think (After troubleshooting there ideas) that Windows could be the problem. I have also spoken with ASUS about my Motherboard being the issue and, because they insisted, I'm going to RMA my Motherboard. I don't think the Motherboard is the problem, though BIOS could be, so while I wait I'd like to ask you guys for some tips just in case I'm right and the problems continue. I've been on Google for the past few days not and it looks like this has happened to a good amount of people since 2007. Though, none of the very few solutions have helped. PC info can be found through my Profile, any info that's not located there I can get for you, just ask. The weird part: Everything works fine if I use the default Windows Drivers, but as soon as I install the latest Drivers (13.4), that's when the issue starts. Right now I'm using the default Drivers so I can see my screen. I'd also like to add that this happens with any GPU I install. It also works with a 5:4 with the Drivers, but I use a 16:9. I have tried 2 that work in other PC's, and 1 that's new (Mine). Thanks, Derek R.

text: Hi, I was wondering if anyone could tell me more about the benefits of rooted android (specifically JB) compared to jailbroken iOS. I have used both Android and iOS and I can say that Jelly Bean is a blast. I think it handily beats stock iOS. Bring jailbroken iOS into the picture, and it all becomes muddy. I can customise so much with cydia, and it is super easy and can be done to most devices. Very little fragmentation. Jailbroken iOS can change icons, tweak the launcher a great deal, multiple skins and themes, get different lock screens. It can add functions, tweak information on the status bar. Add toggles in notification center, and so on. Use multiple keyboards. So I was wondering, what is there on Android that still beats jailbroken iOS? I can think of widgets running smoothly (they stutter a lot and crash on jailbroken iOS). Offline voice typing. Ability to have other SMS apps (though I prefer the stock JB one), as well as email and browser (same). Getting other hardware to go with Android like notification lights and screen sizes we want. Expandable memory, removable battery (but this is rapidly decreasing). But is there anything else? Thanks in advance for all the replies!

LAS VEGAS — Opening this fall in Chicago at the Notebaert Nature Museum is a traveling exhibit titled Eww! What's Eating You? The exhibit will travel to 15 major cities across the United States over a five-year span, revealing the repulsive, yet morbidly fascinating world of parasites.
Produced by Exhibit IQ, a Las Vegas-based producer of innovative exhibitions and educational programs, the 5,000-square-foot exhibit brings to life some of the most complex life forms on earth through dramatic design, rich content, oversized models, graphic eye-witness accounts and never-before-seen photographs, as well as preserved and live specimens of bed bugs, mosquitoes, ticks, tapeworms and many other skin-crawling (both on and under) critters. Eww! is a follow-up to the company's other popular entomology-themed traveling exhibit CSI: Crime Scene Insects.
"Parasites might be gross to talk about, but complex and fascinating science exists in the symbiotic relationships between parasites and humans," said John H. Good, president and executive producer for Exhibit IQ. "Eww! What's Eating You? digs into the ancient beginnings of human-parasite interactions and guides visitors through modern tales, including cutting-edge medical applications. It's a really unique and engaging way not just to entertain, but to inform and educate."
Curated by world-renowned researchers and authors, the interactive exhibit demonstrates from the mildly irritating to the wildly infectious how many parasites prey on humans to successfully complete their life cycles.
Expanding the notion of truly relevant and innovative science-based museum exhibits, Exhibit IQ assembled an accomplished team of academics, content specialists, educators, designers, fabricators, interactive engineers, multi-media experts and museum marketing specialists to create Eww! What's Eating You? to ensure the project provided an accurate and impactful informal education experience.
The company expects the traveling exhibit to reach up to 5 million museum visitors during its 60-month tour through North America. For more information on tour dates and locations, visit www.exhibitiq.com.

Set 20 years in the future after the events of the show's Second Season, 1986's The Transformers: The Movie is memorable for killing off several major characters, introducing new concepts into the canon, and (despite its flaws) remaining the best theatrical Transformers movie. The strength of the film comes in it's opening act during the Decepticons' attack on Autobot City on Earth. Making way for new characters such as the energetic Hot Rod (Judd Nelson) and the crotchety Kup (Lionel Stander), the sequence kills off several original characters including Prowl (Michael Bell), Brawn (Corey Burton), Ratchet, Ironhide (Peter Cullen), and Optimus Prime (Cullen).
The death of Optimus Prime is a seminal moment for those who grew up with the toys, comics, and cartoon series. With the Matrix of leadership passed on to a brand-new character in Ultra Magnus (Robert Stack), the Autobots attempt to survive unaware that an even greater threat in the world-eating Unicron (Orson Welles) is looming. Taking the battered Megatron (Frank Welker) and remaking him into his lieutenant Galvatron (Leonard Nimoy) along with new soldiers, Unicron hopes to crush the Autobots.

Jim has more than 40 years of both industry experience and as an instructor. His work in the landscape design and construction field included the likes of serving as director of facilities for St. Norbert College and as an architect for Boldt, with additional industry experience in project management.
Prior to his professional work, Jim served nearly four years in the United States Army—which included a tour of duty in Vietnam.
Certified in Organic Land Care from the Northeast Organic Farming Association and as a state-level Certified Landscape Architect, Jim's green thumb roots are rich in history. In the mid-1970s, he led volunteers in the implementation of organic play pockets for children, families, and schools in Green Bay.
The effort grew into a model for volunteers to follow in other regions as well. Play pockets were also put in communities around northern Illinois and in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan—about 190 in all, covering three states when the project was said and done in the early 1980s. Jim earned three awards as a result of the play pocket movement, including a State Senate Proclamation and the 1977 Wisconsin Jaycee's Outstanding Young Man award.
Jim has directed the time and talents of volunteers on several other notable landscape construction projects and green makeovers as lead Horticulture instructor at Fox Valley Technical College (FVTC). A 9/11 Memorial in Greenville, the Hartling Family Rose Garden, a series of organic gardens for ThedaCare, and the Green Roof Rest Station—recognized as a Gold Medal structure from the Wisconsin Landscape Contractors Association, are just a few of the marks he and his students have made on others.
The winner of the 2008 H. Victor Baldi Excellence in Instruction award at FVTC, Jim's passion for education is found in his ongoing commitment to high-tech learning resources at FVTC. He was the brainchild behind the college's development of the Lowe's Foundation Sustainable Greenhouse, Hydroponics Lab, and the Ron Amos Horticulture Tissue Lab (which was made possible by the generosity of Evergreen Nursery Company, Inc. and Boldt).
Today, Jim serves as an Emeritus Member of the American Society of Landscape Architects whilecontinuing to teach as lead instructor in the Horticulture Technician program at FVTC. He enjoys giving a wide range of lectures across the state and Midwest, particularly on his new growing systems: Beds, Bales, Buckets, and Brews.

Segbuy, A place to be to source electronics in Shenzhen
Here we go, Segbuy is just in viewline to the Haxlr8r office. So just a 5 min walk you can get all parts you ever dreamed or parts you ever wanted for a view coins, often actually very often you have samples for free which would be worth 20 or 30 Euros in Germany. If some parts not on stock the super friendly girls invited you for a cupe of tee and send out the agents get the parts in the buildings arroudn the corner for you... I love that. Usually I go there directly with my PCB to chek out the best fitting switches and parts...Also If you need fresh PCB or flexible PCBs or watever..... like laser cutted Aluminum parts... just take your USB Stick with your data and start the production right now from one of the desks there and shipping to your desk... Its so easy

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|2 - 3 nights
This private home is located just a 2 minute walk from one of 3 private sandy beaches with restrooms, showers, volleyball and playground equipment. Also, just minutes from Wisconsin's second and fourth largest lakes. Access to Associations pools and tennis courts. Home is located on a quiet road across from Lake Arrowhead. The large 2 level deck is perfect for relaxing and watching the deer, birds and wild turkeys that frequent the property. An outdoor fire pit is located near the deck and is a popular gathering area for late night campfires, or a lively game of horeshoes at the backyard horsehoe pit. There is plenty of parking in the wide driveway for all your boats, ATV's, snowmobiles, etc. and the trails are right out of the driveway. The Lake Arrowhead Lakes Course and Pines course in Rome are just a few blocks away for the golfer. Snowmoble right out of the driveway.
Fully equipped kitchen, with (to name a few things) toaster, blender and popcorn popper..
There are two bedrooms upstairs and two downstairs (newly remodeled). The kids will love having the lower level all to themselves. Home is tastefully decorated in a northwoods theme that will add to your relaxation. Wild flower gardens and fountain on the deck. Mature trees provide plenty of shade in the yard. Sun worshippers will appreciate the extra large private deck. We hope you will enjoy Lake Arrowhead and Adams County as much as we do and will want to return year after year.
Keywords: Lake House, snowmobiling, golf courses, boating, fishing, ATV trails, wildlife
Our family loves our vacation home! Enjoy the large deck and firepit along with the many nearby numerous private beaches and golf courses. Abundant wildlife to watch. My dog enjoys the birds and squirrels eating at the feeders.
Christine Monroe purchased this house in 2005
It is a beautiful area that not many people know about. 5 lakes and 2 challenging golf courses, with another being built. What more can you ask for?
Peace and quiet, away from it all! I have heard from the guests how they appreciate the well stocked kitchen with the popcorn popper, blender, toaster, set of pots & pans, etc.
Had a great week of R&R along with some fishing, swimming and campfires. The weather was great, only a few storms and they were at night. It is a beautiful area where we made some lasting memories!
The house is great and roomy for 5 adults, 2 kids and 1 dog! The resort is amazing! We didn't even have enough time to check out all the beaches! It is very worth the $2 a day for a pass! Close enough of a drive to go into the Dells, but you really do not need to leave the place. Took the bikes out one morning and rode all around the quiet streets and saw so many deer! We will be planning a trip back next year for sure!
Thank you to Christine for making everything seamless and relaxing!
This was the perfect home for our family get away. We had 9 people there - my husband and I , three adult children, a son-in-law, my son's girlfriend and 2 grandchildren (2 years old and 9 months old). There was plenty of room for everyone. The house was well cleaned. (My daughter mentioned that the house cleaner must be fussy because there wasn't a speck of dust or dirt anywhere.) There was a beautiful sandy beach only about a 1/4 of a mile away. We walked/biked down there quite a few times. The roads around there are quiet and have a 25 mph speed limit. Perfect for bike rides around the area. (The owner provides 2 adult and one child bike.) On one evening bike ride there was a doe and her 2 fawns that sauntered across the road right in front of us. We also had use of a very nice, large pool that was just a 5 minute drive from the house that we enjoyed on a couple days. There is a firepit in the backyard where we savored s'mores, pudgie pies and relaxing conversation. The kitchen was supplied with everything we needed so we ate in most of the time. For fantastic fish try the Trails End Tavern just down the road. A plus is there is a different band playing at the Trails End outdoor patio every Friday and Saturday in the summer. We took in the ski show that was 1/2 mile from the house. The reasoning for our getaway was to spend time all together with family and have a little fun thrown in. This place was the perfect place to accomplish this. My daughter said "the minute I stepped in the house I felt at home." Can't beat that. We will definitely go back. P.S The owner is awesome to work with and very helpful!
My family of 8 stayed here for a 5 day getaway and we were very pleased. The house had everything we needed, even a blow dryer! The house is located in a perfect spot for plenty of beach, boating, pool, and golfing fun! We rented a pontoon at the Lure Bar and Grill on Lake Petenwell and it was awesome! Next time we will bring kayaks. We went 45 minutes to the Dells and enjoyed a fun day there too. Overall, we were very pleased with the accommodations and the beautiful surrounding area. We would love to go back!
house was nice with a few exceptions. the cleaning crew forgot everything should be dusted, especially the overhead fan in the livingroom. the internet was not very reliable, think the router might be pooched. nice pool at the clubhouse. we are all motorcycle riders and having a garage was very handy. i,d recommend this place to friends. lots of wild life around too.
We took a week's vacation with our daughters and 5 grand kids at this home in Nekoosa . We wanted to stay within driving distance to Wisconsin Dells, but wanted to avoid the high prices for lodging in the Dells. This home worked out very well for all 10 of us. With 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths, we were not crowded at all. Nice open kitchen and living room concept and patio doors leading out to a large deck. We were able to have a campfire in the backyard and grilled our own dinners . It is in a very quiet neighborhood with lots of trees and beautiful houses and winding roads. Very secluded. It was clean and well maintained. Christine was very easy to communicate with and did provide us with great service. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely go back again. We would definitely recommend this to property to our friends and family.
Jane and family
Chilton, WI
Everything was great. No issues, great for families or a group of golfers. We had a blast!
Thanks for the use of your home.

Apple's quarterly results smashed Wall Street expectations with record sales of big-screen iPhones in the holiday shopping season and a 70 percent rise in China sales, powering the company to the largest profit in corporate history.
The company's blockbuster results and a ballooning cash pile may prompt it to boost share buybacks and dividends this year, with some analysts expecting the iPhone maker to return more than $200 billion to investors. Continued...
