A little disappointing
We booked our stay at Dalhousie, assuming that we would be staying in the Castle Rock Suite, which we thought was inside the castle.
However, upon arrival we were told that we were sleeping in (what we presume was the former staff residence) a building away and out of sight from the castle. There was absolutely no mentioning of this in our booking details and booking confirmation, so we were rather disappointed by this. All persons who book here are advised to double-check this before confirming the booking. We gave this feedback during our stay. Secretly, we hope the castle will contact us and offer us a (free) stay inside the castle next time we visit Edinburgh. We would thus stay there again (because the castle looked lovely) but only if it is inside the castle and if they offer us a great deal to make up for our disappointment.

Royal room
The castle was lovely.
The poor bell hop had to carry our bags up many flights of stairs and did it with a smile on his face. He then later was our waiter for a wonderful dinner in the greenhouse. We saw a deer in the meadow and walked around the grounds after dinner. We saw the owls and in the morning, we saw the falcons. Everything was perfect and I could get used to living in a castle!!

Our two night stay
From the moment we arrived at 3pm on Tuesday 2nd of August to the moment we checked out on Thursday 4th of August I could not find a single thing wrong, the staff are very helpful and polite, the room was ready when we arrived it was clean,and well equipped and it is just a short drive into Edinburgh.
Lovely property
I was visiting from NY so not familiar with the geography.
I had a hard time finding it with the GPS in the rental car as there's no real street address, so be sure to map it out if you're driving.
Coming up on the property, the grounds are lovely. Nice countryside views, grass is neatly kept. Inside, the castle is old as you would expect...the floors are creaky, wood is old, but the interior design is grand and royal. You do feel like royalty walking around the grand ballrooms, library bar, canopy above the king size bed, high ceilings, large tartan curtains.
We only stayed one night so we couldn't take much advantage of the amenities, but the Dungeon restaurant is quite an experience. You start in the library bar where the staff takes your food order in advance...you stay for a drink and then are taken down to the Dungeon when your food is ready. The food is exquisite...some of the best we had while we were in Scotland. Truly fine dining.
Staff is friendly and nice. As we are from the US, we actually found that all Scottish are friendly, so for us, they were more friendly that what we're used to. For other Scots, maybe they're just normal. They say that the castle is haunted. My gf and I are not sure if we had a supernatural experience or not...most likely our imagination getting the best of us.... But if you take this part of the stay out of the equation, we would stay here again to experience the spa.

Spa break
Had a lovely relaxing stay would definitely return and recommend.
Accommodation lovely. Food delicious. Customer service excellent. A little let down no WiFi cover in castle lodge or mobile phone signal. Enjoyed treatments at spa which were fantastic. Spa however requires upgrade which we were advised was scheduled. Shame no larger swimming pool.

Exceptional food in an amazing setting
Although the dungeon restaurant proved a little uncomfortable (too warm and sat next to a rather pungent bunch of out of date flowers) the staff although occasionally inefficient were charming and the food was exceptional.
The courses were interesting, well balanced and simply a treat from the first to the last mouthful. Top marks to the chef and thanks to the rest of the staff ( forgiven for their occasional inefficiencies due to the large Wedding taking place)

Excellent stay
We decided to stay somewhere special near Edinburgh and we were not disappointed.
We stayed in room 4 which was located in the big tower. We cannot fault the accommodation it certainly had that feel of days gone by, which was what we was looking for. I would very highly recommend a stay at Dalhousie Castle!

By KURTIS LARSON
TORONTO — Julian and Jonathan de Guzman are polarizing figures -– two of Canada's most gifted players who continue to pull Canadian supporters in opposite directions.
Following CONCACAF's second round of World Cup qualifying, Julian acknowledged that his brother, Jonathan, who is currently under contract with Spanish side Villarreal, was looking to take steps to become eligible for selection by head coach Stephen Hart and the Canadian national team.
All that changed following Canada's goal-less draw against Honduras in Toronto on Tuesday night.
"I know that I could be a very big impact on the Canadian national team," Jonathan told The Score at BMO Field. He went on to say he now hopes to earn a call from the full Dutch side.
The 24-year-old attacking midfielder currently holds a Dutch passport and competed for the Netherlands at the under-20 and under-23 levels.
"If (I) did play for the Canadian national team it would be a lot stronger than now," he continued. "But then again, that's the choice I've made … and I stand by that choice."
In an effort to talk the younger de Guzman into joining his brother in the center of Canada's midfield, Hart traveled to Spain in advance of the current round of CONCACAF qualifying to personally invite Jonathan into the side.
The Canadian Soccer Association confirmed earlier this year the ball was rolling to hopefully ensure Jonathan's Canadian eligibility at some point during the 2014 qualifying cycle.
But as a result of his comments earlier this week, Canadian supporters are once again shaking their heads and wondering if Jonathan's most recent comments will bring closure to what has been a four-year ordeal.
That is, until Julian told a small group of reporters he's not buying his younger brother's controversial words.
"I know him best and I want to say it's a bluff," Julian said following Thursday's Toronto FC training session. "I still have hope that he will be part of the Canadian national team.
"He has yet to put on a Dutch jersey so I haven't given up hope for him to finally join us. I hang with him now every day that he has been back (visiting Canada) and I still try to get in his head to put on the red jersey so we'll see what happens."
A source with knowledge of the situation told SBI the CSA will continue to pursue clearance for Jonathan to become eligible for selection. But with Villarreal relegated to the Spanish second division ahead of next season, Jonathan's club concerns could take precedent for the Toronto-born midfielder, who continues to burn bridges every time he opens his mouth.
Canada is in a similar struggle to convince Blackburn midfielder Junior Hoilett to choose the Canadian national team over both the English and Jamaican national teams.
"He wants to make sure he's settled in a (club) sense," Julian said. "In terms of international (play) nothing has been confirmed. He hasn't been called up to the Dutch national team … and I'm still doing my best to bring him to the Canadian team."
The Imperative Voice
JdG, your Dutch ship has sailed and yet you are still shouting ultimatums at it. Yes you played Dutch youth ball but they are playing in Euro 2012 without you, didn't call you in for senior friendlies, qualifiers, or the tournament itself. Holland is not going to call you in because you threaten to defect to Canada. They will wave if they even care.
For that matter, if JdG needs to apply for a Canadian switch, he doesn't even have time for this posturing. Unlike the US, who can expect to be in the hex, Canada is in a three way dogfight for advancement, with perennially tough Honduras chasing them. Canada's qualifying run might be over by October and he'll have switched to a team that will be playing little more than Gold Cups for meaning until 2016. All he can rely upon is 6 semifinal games 2 of which are already gone. Do something or quit wasting our time.
The Imperative Voice
Also bears noting that JdG's Dutch Olympic experience was 5 years ago, and his pro experience there was over 3 years ago, and so you have a player who's been in Spain 3 years and basically worked the Dutch immigration angle while playing soccer there, getting into this weird, backward-looking game when it's neither his place of birth nor his brother's country nor his current placement of employment nor his current residence. Even more tangential a connection than the German-Americans and yet he continues the games.
What a chump. That's like Benny Feilhaber holding out for a Brazilian call up. Get real, bro.
I can't believe Canada sometimes.. so many duel nationals that don't want to get involved with the CNT. I really hope they pull themselves together and become a strong north american rival.
i wonder if they make it to the Hex if these fence sitters will join the team? it would be even better if they knocked Honduras out!
what a tool – if I was Canadian or a CANMNT supporter, I'd be PO'd.
That being said, they need him, if they had him and Holiett patroling on the wings, they'd easily be good enough to earn that 3rd spot.
Even with just the younger de Guzman they'd be pushing Honduras, Panama and Costa Rica for the 3rd spot.
I get the feeling Holiett is holding out to see who is closer to a WC, Canada or Jamaica, than will make his choice. But if England came calling he'd put on the Three Lions jersey in a heartbeat.
The main threat isn't Honduras – its Panama now.
W. Vancouver
Some similarities to where Tim Chandler may find himself with the US. On another note, just getting to the Hex may not be enough for the fence sitters to commit to CNT. Use the US as a proxy and there are players like Rossi and Subotic (played for US U-20) who chose other countries, even knowing they would have more chances at a World Cup roster slot if they played for the US. My hope is that Canada can make a significant rise up the CONCACAF food chain. It would be good for the region, good for MLS, good for USMNT and good for MNT to have the third largest country and second largest economy in the federation pulling its weight. Everyone rises with the tide.
David J S
So he has family ties to Canada (nation of birth), Jamaica and the Philippines (parents), and plays professionally in Spain, yet he most identifies with the Dutch national team? Hmmm… I get that he moved to Holland when he was 12 and came through the Feyernood academy but it seems like he's trying to leverage whichever team best suits his interests. Playing for the national team shouldn't just be about which team can further your personal interests the most, but which country's national anthem brings your emotions to a fever pitch. I'm not saying I can't imagine that he'd say that the Netherlands is the country that he most personally identifies himself with, but that really doesn't seem to be the message he is sending. I wish he would just answer the question: "What country do you most see as a part of yourself?" because that is really what international football should be about. The frustrating thing for countries like Canada/Jamaica is that I'm sure they would be many players' answer to the preceding question, but they end up being strung along/often times ditched in favor of more prestigious footballing nations.
well, it would be good for CONCACAF so i hope this happens. but this guy is a total tool.
England will never happen no matter how much he wants it… or how much England wants it for that matter.
The home nations (England, Scotland, Wales, N. Ireland) have an agreement in place that they will not cap players unless they have a direct bloodline linking them to a given nation. I'm not sure how that applies to immigrants. It just means that they won't give Brazilian "B" team players a call if they've lived played for a club in Britain long enough to be eligible.
See Nacho Novo (Scotland), and Arteta and Almunia (England)
Unless Hoilett has some distant, British relative, England will never happen which is a relief.
Pretty arrogant, that's for sure. He makes it sound as though, if he were to play for Canada, it would be "Jonathan De Guzman" that would qualify for the World Cup. He's very good but not that good.
WTF???? I think you mistook Canada for Mexico when you said third largest country and second largest economy in the federation
But for some athletes, it will always be about career, rather than country. I'm sure there are players on the US men's basketball team, who see the Olympics as a way to raise their profiles rather than national pride.
He has the passports, he has the right to make the decisions however he wants (just as the federations have the right to not bother with him).
i agree…when he says I know the team would be much better if I was on it…yeah buddy, sure.
You should probably check your facts again RPM…
Have you watched them recently? The CMNT would be improved with the addition of Julian LENNON, for god's sake. They ain't good.
Soccer Rules
Whatever. Those guys are overrated and overpaid. Good luck getting selected for the Dutch national team, in your dreams.
Michael Stypulkoski
Hey, unnecessary shot at Benny!
Jim Smith
It's a matter of passports and eligibility – plain and simple.
In order to get his Dutch citizenship, JDG2 had to give up his Canadian citizenship (Holland requires you to give up your other nationalities to become a citizen).
So as it stands, he is not currently eligible to play for Canada.
If he wants to play for Canada, he will have to get his Canadian citizenship back, which will likely mean that he loses his Dutch citizenship.
It's the Dutch citizenship that opens up avenues across Europe. No work permits, no occupying a limited international slot. Especially important when your team just got relegated and it's time to find a new club.
Essentially – he can either play for Canada and kiss his club career in Europe goodbye, or focus on his club career and have no international one (it's not like the Netherlands will call him up)
He meant third largest by population, I imagine.
Whatever Benny's alleged attitude problems, I don't recall him ever being THAT arrogant. JdG, on the other hand…
Just to play devil's advocate for a moment, perhaps his cosmopolitan upbringing means that *none* of those national anthems brings his blood to a fever pitch. I'm not making a judgment about it, just trying to understand his perspective.
For Giuseppe Rossi, the idea of playing for the Azzurri clearly moved him, but JdG's background isn't as simple as that.
In such a situation, I suppose the loyalty *might be* (might, because again, I don't get his mindset) to play with the best possible team, as it means suiting up alongside more world-class players and getting more exposure. But his comments definitely make him seem like a self-absorbed mercenary.
Good info; thanks for that.
I doubt he'd be kissing his club career goodbye, there's plenty of Americans playing in Europe that occupy international spots. It just makes it an extra complication in bringing him to your club if he were to revert back to Canada.
Either way, I really doubt the Netherlands, even with their current struggles, are falling overthemselves to bring in a attacking mid/winger playing in the Spanish second division.
As a CONCACAF supporter, I want Canada to do well. But as a US supporter, I'm a little afraid of them, if they bring in both Jon DeGuzman and Jr Hoilett.
I disagree. The McCartney kids were always better footballers.
He could barely find the field for a relegated team…if anyone bothered to translate this garbage, the Dutch would be laughing.
1. He is staying with his brother in Toronto and borrowed his jacket for the game. He did not expect to be interviewed by James Sherman so it is not like he did it on purpose. He was jsut being honest and to be frank his brother spoke for him, whenever he spoke he said dutch all the way.
2. I understand people being peeved if your Canadian (hey I am) but to be honest he has 2 nationalities he can play for, growing up there since he is 12 I can definetly see him feeling and being dutch. Heck he grew up there from teens onwards when you do your most growing up. This is not an Owen Hargreaves case.
3. He has ties to both countries and probably feels alliegience to both but Dutch is just where his heart lays at the momment, it could change but that is his decision. Also, like someone said earlier, dutch passport is important for club career and that is where he makes his money.
I feel for the guy and pissed at same time but hey gotta deal with it. PS Julian is putting him in a tough spot, should just let it be.

Force and Faith: Abundant Life Blooming in the Desert
The Star Wars community tends to boil things down to a lowest common denominator. While we all have Wookieepedia bookmarked and a vast knowledge TIE fighter models, we find the conversations being whittled down to likes or dislikes, goods or bads. We polarize our conversations instead of finding deeper levels of understanding through true understanding, dialog and compassion. If you think I'm nuts, have you ever persuaded someone with your theory about who Snoke is? When talking to someone with an opinion on midichlorians, have you changed your mind? There is a call to something greater, though.

My hand grabbed the top of the Minaret, pulling me to the small top. I crouched, hovering a hundred feet in the air. My left hand grabbed my monocular, enlarging the Somali National Theatre, a hundred meters away. Child soldiers high on cot pranced around, some spectating a boxing match between two twelve year olds.
Three hours passed, the dying sun scorching my dry and cracked skin. Two hours until it gets dark. Fishner exited the theatre with six guards, all of them checking their corners. Fishner took a left towards down a road towards the market. Smiling, I pocketed my monocular and climbed down the Minaret. I landed on the street and started running towards Fishner. I took a right down a staircase, bumping into a horse and into a straight sprint down an alley. I rounded a corner and saw Fishner walking down a very narrow road. Fishner looked my way and tapped his guard. I stepped back around the corner as bullets impacted the stone. Shit, how did they know?!
I grabbed a spoon and used it's reflection to look around the corner. Fishner sprinted to his left down a street. Two guards stayed behind, aiming at my corner. Frowning, I looked up, seeing a window just high enough to get me to the roof. I jumped and kicked up of the wall, my left hand barely reaching the window. My right hand flicked the safety of my silenced pistol and grabbed the window. I pulled myself up and onto the roof. My feet pushed of the roof and carried me across the narrow street and onto an opposite roof. Gun shots echoed across the road. I ran across the roof, looking at the street Fishner ran down. Fishner came into view, breaking a houses door down. Fishner sprinted inside and out of view as I pulled my pistol out. One of his guards saw me and began raising his gun. Time slowed as I jumped of the roof, firing four rounds into four guards heads, spraying blood against the stone buildings. I hit the ground and somersaulted into the house Fishner ran into. To my right, a lady tumbled down a staircase. Desperate, I sprinted upstairs, to see Fishner jump through a window and out of sight. I sprinted after him, falling out the window and slamming into a wall in the market. My feet slammed into a lady on the heavily crowded street. Fishner yelled "My children, shoot everyone behind me! Soldiers, help me!"
Child soldiers rose from a stall and started shooting into the crowd, covering Fishners escape. I grabbed a smoke grenade and tossed it at the stall, firing a round into it in midair. It exploded, leaving a thick cloud, blinding the kids. I sprinted through the cloud, seeing a sea of crouched people with Muslim hats. Fuck, where is he?!
Soldiers fired rounds behind me, whizzing through fleshy bodies and literally riding on the stone walls to the end of the street. I kept pushing people over until I found the end of the street, which branched into a road. Fishner entered an alley to my left. You could have hid in the crowd sunshine.
I ran into the alley to see a dead end. Fishner faced the wall, trying to climb up. I fired a round through his throat, spraying the wall with his blood. His back hit the dirt, a scarless man with green eyes staring at the sky. I crouched and spun around too late, receiving a rifle butt to my face, blackening the world.
My head ached, along with my back. A bed squeeked below me. My eyes opened, staring at the ceiling. I rolled over to see steel bars, signifying my cage. To my right, a bucket sat with dried crap.
A low voice yelled "This isn't what I wanted!"
A Somali voice answered "You do not own my country!"
"Really? I could get Sharif Ahmed down here to kill him if I wanted to!"
"My president is a noble man like me!"
"He was in a corner, blind to what knocked him out. It is not a fair way for a man to die, nor is it fair to the moral progress of this nation!"
"I'm going to leave before he cuts your neck open." Footsteps echoed down the hallway.
I slid my right hand through the bars of my cell and jammed it, pulling backwards. My left hand located my arm, popping it back in place. I panted and slowly un-jammed my arm.
Hours passed as I sat on my bed, doing a muppet show with my hands. My left squeeked "Oh, there is Fishner! I have you now! Wait, you-"
My right laughed "Not Fishner?! You've just been played!"
My left hand turned around and shot an invisible man. My right hand cried "Impossible! Blllaaahhhhhh".
A knock hit the bars of my cell. I turned around to see Sarah smiling. I quickly stood up and asked in English "What are you doin here?"
Sarah stated "Just here to get you out."
I laughed "What's the catch?"
"Lemme tag along."
I blinked "Tag along love? I'm taging bloody Fishner, who for all I know, runs this stupid country!"
Sarah took a few steps back "Is that a bucket?"
"Oh, not forever, soon I'll have to share!"
Sarah tossed her arms in the air "Which is another reason why you should come with me!"
My eyes narrowed "How are you getting me out?"
Sarah sighed "I told the warden I'd publish a gruesome story about Somalia to the western world. He thinks it'll give his country more foreign aid."
A guard walked up to my cell and put a key in, unlocking it. Sarah slowly stated "By the way, you won't ditch me Caleb Albring. If you do, one of my friends will tell my editor your name and what your job is."

A Teacher's Care Can Leave A Legacy That Outlasts Lesson Plans
I will never forget his first day of public school, a day imprinted in my memory and immortalized. I still can see his determined little face as he rushed past me, worry lining his wrinkled brow as he motored toward the outside steps, coming directly from the bus, those thin legs stomping up into the house -- him, wanting nothing more than time and space between us. No pleasantries about the day or small offerings about what he enjoyed most.
Not a word.
He would have (nor could handle) none of that foolishness.
To be honest, this experience was not the first time I had really seen visibly the effects of anxiety on students. In middle school, an acquaintance of mine had committed suicide, after having gone around the school the afternoon before saying his last goodbyes, unbeknownst to all of us standing there in that dimly lit hallway.
Additional to that extremely traumatic experience, I had watched classmates and friends struggle with academics and social interactions, exhibiting signs of anxiety and stress in the process. I also had observed students in the schools I attended acting out in frustration and despair to the boundaries they experienced within the school setting.
Further to even this, when first acting as a substitute teacher and then later as a permanent teacher, certainly I witnessed many examples and scenarios of students dealing with stress and anxiety, behaviours and emotional exchanges manifested in different ways and exhibited through varied means of expression.
And then, going back to my own childhood experience, I had dealt with the cruelty of bullies myself (both children and adults), their work the daily humiliation of taunting and teasing me about my physical appearance, along with targeting anything else they sensed was a weakness in me. All of this: contributing factors to a lifetime of ever-worsening anxiety troubles and growing emotional heartache.
There is really nothing kids want more than to be liked, to be accepted for who they are.
But somehow, someway -- being the parent of that little boy I mentioned above has made the anxiety and related mental fatigue of school more personal to me than any of those previous experiences ever could have done.
Being a mother has made it unbearable.
Now, having been that little boy's mother for 16 years, I certainly have a vested interest in understanding signs of anxiety issues in students. Particularly, yes, because I see anxiety and stress in my own four children. But also because I want to understand these two forms of mental exhaustion as they can be observed in the children I work with and teach.
I make mental notes about what students and children around me say, filing away the information for later, when I can write and think about those special shared moments in the quiet and solitude of my kitchen. I study the writings of various reputable others who have put emphasis on the daily work of care, and I talk to counselors, therapists and trusted colleagues about the tender issues surrounding children/teens and mental health, always inquiring how I can nurture emotional well-being into its full potential.
What I have realized time and time again is something so profound, it is actually simple. There is really nothing kids want more than to be liked, to be accepted for who they are. It is the greatest way we can care for children, for youth: we must show them they matter.
Mere days ago, I stood in my newly-decorated classroom and read silently the individual names of my students for the upcoming school year. As I carefully placed desks into groups and arranged clusters for working partners, I let my mind wander. I wondered about them, those young learners I would soon be meeting, some for the very first time. The final thought I kept coming back to in my reflections was how very much each of these students will come to depend on me to find something in them that is valuable, to find things of worth within each of them that will serve to ignite their passion and desire to be their best selves.
And at times, these students will also need me to be their advocate and support, especially when they cannot see the potential in themselves that I already know to be there.
Caring teachers know by intuition what needs to be done.
It has been only days since the school year began again, a time when I receive my first correspondence from students, as recorded on various "first-week-of-school" worksheets we complete. Today, a young student told me that the one thing he wanted me to know about him, that I might not already know, was that he was "nice." What he doesn't know about me is this: I already knew -- knew that he was more than nice, he was incredible.
What matters to this little guy, and to all the others as well, is that we as teachers and like-minded adults care about them. Kids come to us from different situations, some difficult and turbulent in nature and others quite stable and healthy, but all come asking us to notice them. Our job then is take them where they are and let each child know as soon as they walk into the school yard, that they matter. They must know that we are rooting for them.
Our care will show itself in many ways -- evidenced in our ability to adapt lessons to learning styles, evident in our best teaching practices, evident in our passion for our those subjects we teach, passion for listening to the students tell us what they already know. Our care will also be visible in the ways in which we place priority on what is truly important. We will know from moment-to-moment whether that priority is to be placed on the lesson at hand or focus turned to a specific child who just needs some TLC and a listening ear. Caring teachers know by intuition what needs to be done.
What we're all about is the kids. We've got their backs. We are there because we care.
And it is this constant care and the interest shown that students remember most about teachers each school year... and continue remembering long after they have graduated and moved on.
A legacy that outlasts lesson plans and course material each and every time.

Hogan Lovells has advised the senior management of AIM Aviation Ltd on its secondary buy-out by TowerBrook Capital Partners LP from existing investor LDC.

Shadoe Rose: Part NineMature
Selena leaned back against the rough bench. "What happened next?"
Andrew pulled the book out of her bag and flipped to the next entry. "I guess we'll find out," he answered as a couple jogging past gave them a strange look.
"I hope Shadoe Rose doesn't do anything while we're at the park. I don't want anyone to get hurt," Selena said softly as she looked at a few kids playing on a swing set a few yards away.
"Maybe she won't. But let's keep reading."

Groupon Inc. Acquires Blink
Groupon Inc. (NASDAQ: GRPN), the operator of daily deals portal groupon.com has acquired Blink, a mobile app that offers customers with deals for same day hotel bookings in Europe. The acquisition is an effort by the company to strengthen its travel business, Groupon getaways, as the company is making a strategic move away from solely being an online flash deals provider. The Blink team, based out of Madrid in Spain, has over 2000 hotel partners across Europe and according to Groupon sources; this acquisition will boost the travel business of the company. The Blink app will enable users to buy great hotel deals in tourist destinations even though the bookings are made at the last minute. The acquisition will complement the current offerings from Groupon in the European market. The company currently offers all-inclusive travel packages to popular destinations in Europe. The app will operate independently and will complement the Groupon Getaways service which is currently available across 48 countries. This acquisition follows Groupon's July launch of Groupon reserve, offering deals from premium brands, and the more recent warehouses acquisition in North America to shore up its physical goods business. The company has been making a steady effort to diversify its revenue sources and be less dependent on the flash deals business alone. The Groupon stock price lost 0.86% in yesterday's trade closing the day at $11.19.

Clavicle fracture
I had my collar bone fracture last year. At that time I had my standard treatment with bracing belt around shoulder for 8 weeks. It was okay after that but I felt that my bone was not joined properly as I could feel them as two separate bones. But I didn't complain and followed my regular routine. But after some months I started getting pain after doing any activity. I got my x Ray done and it was same as the first day x Ray. Bones were wide apart. So I need to know whether I should continue as it is or a surgery or any other solution.

Consult your orthopaedician urgently. You have already been delayed. Collar bone fracture should have been operated at that time and fixed in proper conventional allignment. If you are suffering from pain, take analgesics as Tab. zerdol-sp 1 tab twice daily after food for 5 days. cap omez-d 1cap twice daily before food for 5days.

It was a grand old flag, but it wasn't a high-flying flag. Most of the time, this star-spangled banner fluttered only a few feet off the ground.


text: After pretending to be a normally functioning member of society, I decided to embrace unproductive wanderlust by quitting my jobs and trekking around the world. My mornings consist of waking up in foreign countries next to a local rodent to whom, in a increasingly worrisome show of mental instability, I reveal my dreams, hopes, and desires to because I left everyone I loved back home to travel the world to possibly contract Japanese encephalitis and potentially be kidnapped by guerrillas for ransom. I desperately post pictures on Facebook to make you jealous of the dream you want to live but are sensible not to pursue because you actually have a house to live in whereas I sleep on a reedy mat in Cambodia in the name of adventure, all just so I can return home and casually weave my travel exploits into conversations to demonstrate my worldliness: "Oh, you like strawberries? It's just like that time I ate a strawberry in Cape Town. Tell me I'm worthy. FORTHELOVEOFGOD. PLEASE."

BT US&C President Bas Burger Featured on KERA's CEO Show
(24 January 2014)
Bas Burger was recently featured as a guest speaker on KERA's local television show, CEO, with host Lee Cullum.
Bas Burger was recently featured as a guest speaker on KERA's local television show, CEO, with host Lee Cullum. CEO features chief executives from the corporate and not-for-profit sectors, exploring what it takes to make a company successful in today's global marketplace and leadership styles and ethics.
In this 28-minute interview segment, Bas shares insights on how BT delivers secure and efficient processes and network services globally to multi-national companies. Lee Cullum also probes into topics such as the security of networks, the Internet of Things and how BT operates in the U.S. compared to incumbents AT&T and Verizon.
One area of focus centered around BT's engagement model – focused on making products more specific to certain industries. For example, BT's pharmaceutical customers have dedicated BT employees who are concentrated specifically in the pharmaceutical sector. In addition to all of BT's telecomm and IT products, these people specialize in everything that these customers do.
"We find this model extremely helpful when engaging with customers because you are speaking their language," said Bas. "It also helps us in the sense that it translates the needs of the customer back to BT in order to effectively build the product."
Another point of discussion focused on cloud computing – certainly a hot topic in the industry today. Bas explains that cloud computing is often used to explain "flexible usage" of telecommunication infrastructure, hardware, software or services. It places the emphasis on the user – allowing them to put these components into the network to utilize at any time. Companies are looking to the cloud more than ever as a cost-effective way to handle things such as bookkeeping items (paying vendors, handling account receivable, etc.).
"In the future, what you will have is something called the Internet of Things, which is not only the example of the "bookkeeper" using software in the cloud, but also "Things" communicating – machines (anything with an IP address that sends information) talking to machines, machines talking to humans and humans talking to machines," shared Bas. "All of this will happen in that network (the cloud) and is designed to serve as useful information to the consumer. It's going to be fascinating."

Short Story by: hollydar
Status: Finished
Genre: Children Stories
When Joe awoke early he knew that today wasn't going to be an ordinary day. Once a year the circus came to the small Village in which he lived and today was the day it was arriving. The usual boring fieldswouldbecomemagical as the Big Top would be erected in a vast array of colours. The childrens' rides would be assembled and the wonderful caravans would look so elegant as their chrome handles and trimmings gleamed in the light. There would be hustle and bustle everywhere and the normally quiet little Village would somehow come alive.Joe could see the fields from his bedroom window and he loved to sit, with his friend Danny, and watch all the action as it took place and to listen to the music that seemed to play night and day.
After breakfast Joe asked his Mother if he could call on Danny, who was just a excited as he was about the arrival of the circus. She said it would be Ok and before she could change her mind he grabbed a coat and ran out of the door. His Mother smiled as she knew that for the next few weeks she wouldn't have Joe asking what he could do to pass the time as he was bored - he was never ever bored when the circus was around. Joe and Danny decided they would sit on the bench close to the fields and from there they would hear when the giant lorries were trundling their way to the village. As soon as they heard the first sound they both ran over to Joe's house so they could sitat his bedroom windowand eagerly await forthe excitement to start. It wasn't long before everything was beginning to take shape. The Big Top was very soon erected and looked so magestic Joe thought. He and Danny agreed that it looked almost like a giant castle. Next the rides were being assembled - Joe loved the roundabout that had beautiful painted horses that went round and round and up and down at the same time. Danny liked the giant swing that went so high that it felt as though you would turn over before it came to a stop. As the boys sat there the smell of onions began to fill the room - this was from the burger and hot dog stand that both Joe and Danny loved to visit. This smell was something Joe's Mother always grumbled about, but Joe thought it was great - it really proved that the circus was here.
The circus itself didn't open until the next day, but the rides and the stalls with various games, such as hit the coconut andhook the plastic ducks, test your strengthand lots of others games, were open soJoe and Danny took their pocket money that they had saved forweeks and set off to havea good look around. Theyhad a great time and although they didn't win any prizes it didn't worry them, they were so lookingforward to tomorrow when Joe's parents were going to take them both to theopening show of the Big Top. That night Joe thought he would never sleep as he was so excitedabout tomorrow, but all thefun of the day and the walking around the grounds had worn him out and before long he was soundasleep, dreaming of clowns and elelphants and everything that made the circus exciting.
Joe awoke early the next morning and despite trying he could not get back to sleep. He peeped out of his bedroom window andseeing all the caravans and the Big Top he knew that forthe next two weeks theschool holidays were going to be very special. Joedecided to creep downstairs, trying not to wake hisparents. He took a freshglass of milk from the fridge and curled up in the big comfortable chair in the kitchen, and as he sipped the milk he thought he must be one of the luckiest boys he knew. Suddenly Joe heard a sound from the front door - it must be the windhethought. The door was old and did sometimes rattle when the wind blew.However, it suddenly struck Joe that it wasn't that windy and the sound he could here was more of a scratching sound than a rattle. Joe took the little stool that was close by and put it near the front door, then he climbed up onto it and peeped though the letter box. As he looked out he could see two big brown eyes looking at him. Joe thought the eyes looked very sad and very tired, but whodid they belong too? He slowly opened the door and there before him was a lovely big greyhound dog, who was much toothin and looking as though he was starving. Joe gently called him into the kitchen - the dog followed Joe and looked longingly athim.. Joe went to the fridge and took out the chicken that had been left over from yesterday's dinner and put it in a dishfor the dog. It was gonein no time and after having a drink of Joe's milk the dog settled down besidehim and fell asleep. He must be a stray thought Joe, nobody would let apoor dog starve like that and also how would he bewandering about alone if someone really cared about him. As Joe gently stroked the dogs coat he really hoped that he was a stray and that his parents would let him keep him. As Joe day dreamedhe was brought down toearth by the sound of movement from upstairs - his parents were getting up. What would they say? Would they let him keep him? Well the dog had no collarand no means of identification, so he desperatelyhoped that by the end of this day the dog would be his.
As Joe's Mother entered the kitchen, she gasped"what have you there Joe- how did he get in"? He's a stray and needs a home said Joe hurriedly, hoping that he wasn't going to get into trouble. "He must belong to someone" said his Mother, "He probably comes from the circus and his owner is probably extremely worried about him. We can't keep him here, after breakfast we will go over to the circus grounds and ask around".
After breakfast Joe's Father put on his coat, found a thick piece of rope and tied it to the dog and together with Joe set off for the circus to see if anyone knew to whom the dog belonged. Joe was praying that nobody would know anything about the dog. Just when it seemed that nobody was going to claim him, there was a loud shout from one of the caravans. "Oi!" said a rough voice "that's my dog you have there - the little blighter is always running off - that's why he is useless when it comes to racing and earning me some money!". Joe looked over to see a big rough looking man. He was tall and fat and looked as though he hadn't washed in ages. His caravan was scruffy too, so different to all the others on the site. "You should have a collar and a name tag on him" said Joe's Father, but the man just grunted, grabbed the dog, and closed the caravan door, without even a thank you. Joe's eyes filled with tears, he felt so upset that such a lovely dog belonged to such a horrible man. Dad put him arm around Joe's shoulders and they set off for home. He told Joe not to worry, andthat the manmay haveseemed harsher than he really was and that he probably loved the dog very much and wasreally very happy to have himback. Joe felt sure that Dad only said that to make himfeel better and how right he was.
The next day should have been very exciting - they were going to the opening show of the circus, but all Joe could think about was the dog. Even the thought of the hotdog they always had after the show and therides and games to follow, couldn't cheer him up. If only the dog's owner had been a nice kind person Joe wouldn't have been so disappointed that he couldn't keep him, but thinking about him being shut up with that horrible JimSmith, as he now knew hewas called, really worried him.
Danny called quiteearly and Mother agreed that they could go and havewander round the grounds,as long as they got back early for lunch as they had to get ready for the show. As they wandered around Joe thought he heard a bark and as he looked around he saw the dog, which henow knew was named Sam, bounding towards him. Sam looked scared and Joe could see he had a long wound on his back. He could be wrong, but to Joe the wound looked as though it could have been caused byarope of some kind and wasdefinitely not caused byan accident!Joe was quite sure that Jim Smith was responsible and he wasn't taking the dog back to him. Hedecided he would take Sam home to his Mother and ask her totend to the wound and ask if she thought it was caused deliberately. In the distance Joe could see Jim Smith - he looked red with rage and was calling Sam's name, getting angrier and angrier when the dog didn'trespond. Luckily they were behind one of the caravans and so Jim Smith couldn't see them. Joe and Danny hurried towards home behind all the caravans and cars, followed closely by Sam. They dashedto Joe's house pounding on thedoor. Joe's Mother looked cross when she first opened the door, what with the crashing on the door then seeing they had Sam withthem again. She told them they had no right enticing the dog away from it's owneragain, but when Joe showed her the wound on Sam's back she looked concerned and agreed that this was no accident. She bathed the wound with antiseptic lotion and then applied some ointment. After some warm milkSam fell asleep on a cosy blanket beside the fire. Joe just sat watching him and prayed and prayed that somehow he would be allowed to keep him, although he felt that this was very unlikely. Suddenly, there was a very loudbanging on the door and when Joe's Mother opened the door Jim Smith was standing there looking as though he was about to explode. He started shouting about how Joe had stolen his dog and he was going to call the police. Joe was scared and started to cry, but that was when Joe's Father came in. "How dare you shout at my son that way" he said "and whilst we are of the subject of the police, can you explain how Sam came to have such a deep wound on his back?" Jim Smith looked uncomfortable and mumbled that the dog had tried to escape from the caravan and he had somehow got caught in the door as he tried to close it to prevent him running out. "A likely story" said Joe's Father "but why wasn't the wound treated, if that was the case?" Smith then said that dogs in the wild recovered from any wounds they had without being fussed over and that Sam would have done the same and he didn't appreciate interference from anyone else. Now he wanted his dog back immediately as he was due to run in a race the next day and he wanted him to get some exercise. Although Joe's Dad wanted to tell Smith to get off his property and that the dog wasn't going anywhere, he knew that legally he could not do that and so reluctantly let Smith take Sam home. Joe was crying and Danny tried to comfort him by telling him that they still had the circus to look forward to that afternoon, but Joe couldn't get excited at all, all he could think about was Sam. All the time he was with that awful man, anything could happen, he thought.
Although the circus was great, Joe couldn't really enjoy it the way he usually did. As the days passed and there was no sign of Sam or Smith and it was almost time for the circus to pack up and go Joe felt that it wouldn't be long before Sam would be gone and out of his life forever and he would never know what was happening to him. Danny suggested that they had one last look around and spend the remainder of their money before the circus left the next day. Joe didn't really feel like it but didn't want Danny to be disappointed so he agreed to go with him. As they passed Jim Smith's scruffy caravan Joe could have sworn that he heard a little wimper. He pulled over an old bucket that was resting by the side of the caravan and climbed onto it - Danny steadied him as he balanced on the bucket and tried to look into the dirty windows. "What you up to?" called a voice from behind. It was a young lad of about 16 who was obviously connected to the circus. "Oh!" said Joe " I was just trying to see if Sam was in there, I am sure I heard him wimper. "Poor old thing" said the boy, who told them his name was Tom. He told them that Smith only had Sam for racing so that he could earn him money, but now that Sam was older and didn't win many races anymore that Smith would thrash him and deprive him of food." that's how he gotthe wound on his back." he said. Tom said he was willing to be a witness if Sam's parents wanted to report Smith to the RSPCA and would stand up in court if needs be. When Joe got home he told his parents what Tom had said and immediately his Father phoned the RSPCA. In the meantime Joe's Father went over to the circus and said he wouldn't be very long. After what seemed like hours, but was probably only about 40 minutes, Joe heard his Father's footsteps and his key going in the door. To his amazement and delight his Father had Sam with him. "Don't get too excited" he told him "I have seen Smith and told him that I have sent for the RSPCA and he has agreed to hand over Sam until they arrive and then he will abide by what they say". Joe just hoped and prayed that the RSPCA would realise that Sam would have a safer and better home with them. When the RSPCA inspector arrived he discussed with Joe's Father what had happened and told him that despite whether he thought the dog was being cared for or not he had no right to take him from his owner, without legal action being taken. After the interview Joe's Father took the inspector and Sam back to Smith's, so they could interview him and get his side of the story.
After what seemed like forever, Joe's Father arrived back, alone. Joe burst out crying - to think of all they had done to try to help Sam and he was still being made to live with that hateul man - but his Father gave him a beaming smile "Don't cry Joe" he said "we won". Smith had agreed to hand Sam over - he was no good to him anyway he had said, now he couldn't race. Sam had just been taken to the vet for an injection for his back wound and was then being returned to Joe and his family to live forever. Joe was delighted and was even more delighted a week later when the RSPCA inspector rang to tell them that Smith had appeared in court charged with cruelty and was given 3 months jail and was banned from ever keeping another animal again.
As Joe looked at Sam lying beside him he felt sure he saw Sam smile and feltcertain that he was trying to say "thank you". Joe was so relieved that Smith was now gone - out of Sam's life forever and he would never be able to hurt him or any other animal again.
When the circus arrived in the Village the following year, much to Joe's relief, there was no sign of Smith and Joe knew that this time he would really enjoy the circus with Danny and, of course, his special dog Sam.

Hi Pat I came to let you know the grandchildren were better and I found this. My grandsons will love this story as much as I did. We were reading Beatrice Potter at lunch today and I thought about you. I really loved this tale of the dog and circus. Excellent job on posting. I see booksie messed with your format. Dreadful thing booksies editor. I believe I like this one the best of the three you have posted. Great imagery and story line. Giving it the like button. Susan :)
What a wonderful feelgood story I enjoyed the read and although the ending was obvious I was worried when the father returned without Sam. You write wonderful stories for children and adults who a kids at heart
Another really special story. Do love that you have little boys in this one. Some very wonderful memories in this for me. A true pleasure to read. Hope you write more. Lily
Thank you Lily so glad you enjoyed it. I have always written about girls as the stories were for my little nieces - I changed it to boys when I posted it as Mistress of Words wanted to read it to her little grandsons. I will post another soon.
A really special story. A pleasure.
I enjoyed the tale Pat, good idea and I didn't think the ending was that obvious as I was hoping Joe and Sam would win through, uncertain if they would. As a writer for children there are some cuts I would make, perhaps make some suggestions to increase the tension, but all in all, good story.
I love this! Saving it for Adam :D
Also, can you read my NEW version of MY MASTERPIECE, and THE END OF THE WORLD CHALLENGE ENTERY and the new poem DEAR NYX?? If thats ok? Love Dani xx

text: Science & TechnologyBeyond meat: The end of food as we know it? We travel to Chile to meet a group of young scientists determined to develop smart plant-based food to save the planet. 06 Feb 2016 12:53 GMT | Science & Technology, Chile, Food, Latin America, Health With the latest breakthroughs in artificial intelligence a whole new concept of food may soon radically change what we eat. And at the same time, some experts believe it could reduce global warming. If we were to start from scratch, and we want to figure out the most efficient way to deliver nutrition to the 7.1 billion people on this planet, the answer wouldn't be animals. Science would tell you to do something different. Matias Muchnick No longer based on animal ingredients, this is a food entirely based on plants - although it looks and tastes like the classic food. This is not a new idea. It has been around for about 10 years. But the breakthrough has been delayed. Perhaps one of the reasons is that many consumers still prefer locally produced food. They want to trust the supply chain, and not simply depend on big manufacturers. However, a group of young scientists in Chile are working on alternatives for a sustainable and meatless future. Commercial engineer Matias Muchnick and Harvard research associate Karim Pichara are two of the founders of the Not Company. Together with biochemist Isidora Silva, they are developing new plant-based food and are determined to bring it to people in their local market. Part of what motivates them is what they consider to be the biggest drawback of classic animal farming: It requires massive amounts of land and it affects global warming. According to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, livestock contributes both directly and indirectly to climate change through the emissions of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide. Livestock is also a major driver of deforestation and desertification, as well as the release of carbon from cultivated soils. Overall the livestock sector is contributing 2.7 billion tonnes of CO2 emission, according to the UN. "When you get behind the scenes of the food industry, you don't like what you see. There is a lot of things that we should be knowing... but we are blindsided by a whole industry that is making it really hard for us to see what we are really eating," says Matias Muchnick. The main scientist of the Not Company team is a computer, an artificial intelligence algorithm programmed to become the smartest food scientist in the world. It uses deep learning parameters to understand food at a molecular level, helping the team to deliver tasty and affordable nutrition while using less water, less land, less energy, and without the need to cultivate harmful bio systems like animals. It's a complicated process but it's designed to understand human perception of taste and texture which allows it to suggest clever recipes for sustainable and tasty plant-based foods. And it even understands the availability and use of resources for every single plant in the company's database. "We want people to eat better, but without even knowing. That's the main objective of the Not Company," Muchnick says. But does the new model of food production really work? Will it be popular among consumers? What does it mean for the future of food? Are we at the tipping point of a food revolution? The team behind the Not Company talks to Al Jazeera to discuss their work, their goals and their vision for the future of the food industry.

Skip to comments.Man In Custody After Reports Of Suspicious Person Inside Visitor Center Garage
Posted on 04/22/2013 9:43:28 AM PDT by k4gypsyrose
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) The Visitors Center on Independence Mall closed for a short period of time Sunday while police investigated a suspicious man. Authorities say a man wearing a full camouflage suit inside the Visitors Center quickly drew the attention of police.
(Excerpt) Read more at philadelphia.cbslocal.com ...
First they want our guns, now they want our clothes./s
He was dressed in pants with a brick pattern and a shirt with windows printed on it.
The irony of being arrested while dressed at Independence Mall.
Musta been the wrong color. They could still see him.
Nah, this was in Philly. His camo would have been a collage of litter.
I guess the Duck Dynasty guys won't be able to go anywhere, huh? Do we now live under defacto martial law in this country?
Nothing suspicious was found but he was still taken into custody. He was questioned, but no charges were filed.
What, now you get 3-5 for bad fashion sense?
How did they see him?
Nothing was found, he did nothing wrong, but he was "detained" for questioning but not charged. I guess we better make sure we don't wear camo or have a trashy car. Big Brother is watching...
Its Turkey Season.
Well, at least he wasn't wearing a hoodie and a backwards baseball cap with a backpack.......
Well, there's your proof. He wasn't an Apple guy........
It's uncle Si. HEY!
Is camo still camo if you aren't in the woods?
"I guess we better make sure we don't wear camo".
Better yet we should show up by the thousands wearing camo. They would probably shut down Philly & the sheeple would go along.
In rural PA this guy could have been sporting his HS colors. You go to any late fall football game in PA and it looks like every schools colors are blaze orange and real tree camo.
If muzzies can wear burqas I can wear a ghillie suit to the mall.
Post of the day.
Well played.
