Heading into the Houston game, UC's top rusher is junior
Hosey Williams who is doing the No. 23 of Isaiah Pead proud with 491
yards. Sharing carries with Ralph David
Abernathy IV and Tion Green, Williams is averaging 5.8 yards per carry.
His best game was 117 yards and two touchdowns against Northwestern State, but he also ran for 90 yards against Southern Methodist, 78 against the Miami Redhawks and 70 against Purdue.
His highlight likely was the extended drive on the ground against SMU when the Bearcats were able to freeze the Mustangs offense with Williams pounding the rock.
While the Bearcats have turned to a more pass-oriented offense with Brendon Kay, Williams has still made blocks and chewed up valuable yards and minutes with his running talents.
The 5-foot-9 200-pound Williams is also from Miami, Florida and Southridge High School. The recent announcement of a home and home series with the Miami Hurricanes is good news for Williams and numerous Floridians on the team that will enjoy a return to the Sunshine State.

Sean Kilpatrick's first roommate at Cincinnati is now in his fourth year in the NBA. And Lance Stephenson is off to a tremendous start averaging 14.3 points, 5.9 rebounds, and a team-leading 5.8 assists for the undefeated Indiana Pacers.
"We spoke the other night after the triple-double game that he had," Kilpatrick told me. "He's been telling me how focused he's been on just winning. That's something that's he's been harping on. He's been trying to enhance his game by just putting the team in the best position to win."
Sean is actually about eight months older than Stephenson and seriously considered leaving school after his junior year in hopes of joining Lance in the pro ranks. But Kilpatrick ultimately decided to return to UC for his senior season.
"It was very tough, but when you have a coaching
staff like we do and you have great parents on top of that, that makes things a
whole lot easier," said Kilpatrick. "It's
every kid's dream to try to go to the NBA and being able to fulfill your
dreams, but I really just focus on trying to get my degree now. That's something that will last forever - the
NBA won't. Coach has really talked to me
about putting things in perspective with my life. That's something that I really have to focus
on the most, and being able to come back here for my degree and being able to
accomplish what I want to accomplish with my teammates and coaches - that's
what means the most to me."
"Hopefully for him, he's going to have a tremendous season, lead his team to victories, shoot a high percentage, and have an All American-type season the way Steve Logan did his senior year," said head coach Mick Cronin. "That was probably the last great season that was had by a guard here at UC, and that would be a tremendous way to go out for him. I fully think that he's capable of doing it."
In Cincinnati's first four games, including two exhibitions, Kilpatrick has scored 20, 24, 22, and 21 points. But he isn't just scoring. After regular season wins over NC Central and NC State, Sean leads the team in assists (7) and steals (5), and has drilled 16-of-17 free throws. He's getting to the free throw line by relentlessly driving to the basket instead of settling for three-point shots.
"That's been a goal," Kilpatrick told me. "Coach has really been harping a lot on trying to get to the foul line a lot because the hand-check foul is in play now. I'm so much bigger than the guards that are going to be guarding me - they're going to have to foul me in some type of way. Being able to get to that foul line will put us in a better situation."
After playing for Team USA in the World University Games in Russia last summer, Kilpatrick is looking to go to the NCAA Tournament for the fourth straight year as a Bearcat. But he's going to need help from teammates like Titus Rubles who's averaged 13.5 points and 7.5 rebounds in UC's first two games.
"It's funny because he is my roommate now," said Kilpatrick with a laugh. "He's worked so hard. He's deserves everything that he's getting right now. During the summer when I came back from Team USA, he was walking to the gym at one or two o'clock in the morning. I would ask where he was going and he was like, 'I'm going to get some shots up.' He's worked extremely hard and that's something that I'm proud of him for. He's one of the guys on the team that always has a chip on his shoulder, and I can compare myself to him because we look at things the exact same way."
The 'Cats are also counting on Justin Jackson to provide some offense this year after averaging 3.8 points as a junior.
"He knows how bad we need him," Kilpatrick said. "The 20 pounds that he put on helped us tremendously because now we're not afraid to throw the ball down to him anymore. We know that he can score at will because he's a lot faster and more athletic than the guys that are going to be guarding him. Being able to exploit that mismatch is something that helps us a lot."
If Kilpatrick scores as many points this year as he did as a junior, he'll finish his career as the second-leading scorer in school history behind Oscar Robertson. But his impact on the program can't be measured on the stat sheet.
"I have like a Top 5 or Top 10 list of guys that I've coached as an assistant that I have a relationship with," said assistant coach Darren Savino. "He's in that Top 10 in my mind as far as relationship and dealing with a guy. But as far as a leader? There's not a better leader that I've ever been around in all of my days as an assistant coach in 19 years of college basketball. That's Felipe Lopez, Adrian Griffin who played in the NBA for a long time, different guys from the different schools that I've worked at. SK is all about winning and he's all about toughness. For Coach Cronin, that's the best thing that you can have - a guy who is your best player but he's your hardest worker and he buys in to everything that you tell him that the program and the team needs and he's all for it. We're going to miss his scoring and his basketball stuff, but we can always replace that. You can always get another player that can do the basketball things, but as a person and a leader, that's going to be the biggest thing that the program will miss when he's gone."
Fortunately for Bearcats fans, that day is still more than four months away.

After catching just three passes in each of the previous
two seasons, junior Shaq Washington has taken off this season with a team-high
58 grabs.
The Maple Heights product has been an integral part of the offense under Brendon Kay by catching numerous short passes and extending them into long gains with his running talent.
At Maple Heights, he was a quarterback that led his team to the Division II title game twice, losing to Winton Woods in 2009 and defeating Trotwood Madison in 2010.
He is one of several Bearcats who have made the transition from high school quarterback to another position successfully. Of the current roster, tight end Tyler Cogswell was once a quarterback and Jordan Luallen and Munchie Legaux played other positions before transitioning back.
From last year's team, Travis Kelce came as a quarterback and eventually made it as a NFL tight end. From years gone by, Chad Plummer and Brent Petrus were both quarterbacks that finished their careers as receivers.
Here's the latest, No. 19 Mr. Washington:
By: Scott Springer
The Kingsgate Marriott was the host to Bearcat royalty Oct. 28 as the Legion of Excellence had their gathering and inductees into the James P. Kelly Athletic Hall of Fame were announced.
Among those going in were former Naismith Player of the Year Kenyon Martin and former UC quarterback Gino Guidugli. I was fortunate to cover the entire careers of both.
As for Martin, I first saw him in an AAU game at UC when he was a "man among boys" swatting shots down. He grew from a player that was somewhat shy around the media to a well-spoken senior by the time he left.
Sadly, I was in Memphis the afternoon he broke his leg and stood next to his locker after UC's conference tournament loss afterward when he knew his season was over. For a lesson in heart and soul, search for the UC/DePaul game in Chicago in 2000 and watch the final 10 minutes. I watched him live while covering Reds spring training in Sarasota and it still stands as one of the more improbable finishes ever.
As for Gino Guidugli, he easily is my favorite Bearcat from doing 14 years of football radio. From entering the game against Army in the second quarter in 2001 and pulling it out in his first college action, to walking off the field with him in Fort Worth in 2004 with his MVP trophy, he provided Bearcat fans with several memorable games.
Gino Guidugli's accomplishments were the building blocks for where the program stands now. Given a supporting cast, I would bet the ranch on him anytime in the final minutes of a game. Had he had access to some of the offenses that came after his career, it's hard to say what kind of numbers he would've posted.
Gino Guidugli in Brian Kelly's UC offense would probably have knocked out several lights in the scoreboard. I also was able to cover Ben Guidugli who continued the tradition of his brother in being a pleasurable interview.
It was a thrill and a half for me again be around guys that I covered in the peak of my career and it was fun seeing again so many folks that I don't get to see as much any more.
He may not quite have the following of "Hingle
McCringleberry" or "Fudge" of Key and Peele East/West College
Bowl fame, but UC's Silverberry Mouhon does have many appreciative fans.
The sophomore from Norcross, Georgia is the Bearcats' sack leader and leads the defensive line in tackles. No. 92 is a constant presence at 6-foot-4 and 248 pounds from his defensive end position and hopes to spend considerable time in the SMU backfield this Saturday.
Mouhon was the Defensive Scout Team Player of the Year in his redshirt year of 2011 and will join all of the defensive ends returning next year as none of them are seniors. (UC will lose defensive tackles Mitch Meador, Adam Dempsey, Jordan Stepp and Marques Aiken.)
Here is the man with the best name in college football as we spoke just outside of the Bob Goin Team Room in the Lindner Center.

Randy Wylie
Tennessee volunteer assistant coach Randy Wylie began working with the UT golf program during two seasons (2000-01) spent as Jim Kelson's assistant coach.
Wylie was Tennessee's PGA of America Section Teacher of the Year for 2010, as voted by the PGA membership throughout the state. He already was named the Knoxville area's PGA Teacher of the Year for a second straight season and the third time since 2004.
"The award was especially meaningful to me because it is given by a vote of my peers," said Wylie, an instructor at Knoxville's Fairways and Greens Golf Center. "I was very honored to receive the award and certainly enjoy what I can do to promote the game I love."
Wylie has been a consensus Golf Digest "Best Teacher in Tennessee" since 2003.
"It is very unusual that an instructor receives that award in consecutive years, and it speaks volumes to his level of expertise," Kelson said. "Randy has played a huge role in our program's development over the past 12 seasons. We are very fortunate to have such a skilled volunteer assistant."
A 2008 inductee to the Greater Knoxville Sports Hall of Fame, Wylie won the 1984 Greater Knoxville Amateur and then played professionally for nine years. He was a member of the 1997 and 1998 Asian Golf Tour and made the cut in two U.S. Opens -- 1990 at Medinah Country Club in suburban Chicago, and 1997 at Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, Md.
Wylie's father, former Holston Hills Country Club Director John Wylie, entered the Greater Knoxville Sports Hall of Fame in 2002. That made 2008 honor for Randy Wylie much more special.
"We have been close forever," Wylie said. "We're like best friends. I just knew how excited and happy he was going to be (when he heard the news). That made me even happier."
Wylie graduated from Texas A&M University with a degree in finance after being awarded All-Southwest Conference honors for his college golf successes.
He is married to Jennifer Schneider Wylie, a senior sales executive for WIVK Radio in Knoxville.
"The confidence I have in Randy and his decision making is second to none. To say he has been a tremendous help would be an understatement. I can guarantee that no other volunteer assistant coach comes remotely close to putting in the hours that Randy devotes to our program." - Head coach Jim Kelson

I've never used an epilator. I tried waxing but I couldn't do it. I tried Nair, but it seemed like it made my skin just as irritated as shaving so I decided to stick to shaving.
I did some research online and read somewhere that it's better to shave more sensitive areas with a single blade razor, than a three blade, like those Venus ones. I use a single blade on my underarms and bikini area and a four-blade knock off on my legs. I also do a brown sugar scrub before I shave. This routine has helped a lot. I still get ingrowns but I just pull them out with the tweezers and keep it moving. For my eyebrows, I use a fold-up single blade that I got from Walgreens and just shape them a little bit. I used to tweeze but I hated it. HTH

Reception staff were unfriendly and unhelpful with information, eg times of breakfast, location of hotel, where to go and what to see in the vicinity. They seemed to be only interested in conference delegates and not with tourists. The information contained in room folder was in Swedish and of no use. Restaurant meals were good but we were only offered the menu with regional specialities which was very expensive. Our stay did not represent value for money compared with other hotels we have stayed in in Sweden.
The Hotel is well located in the centre of a small, pleasant and historical harbour town called Trosa. Very nice and convenient geographical setting. Dinner was good with an attractive and extensive wine list which included with some reasonably priced wines The room (no 2) although pleasantly decorated was small and the bathroom even smaller (it was hard taking a proper shower). The view from the room was also a bit disappointing.
The location is excellent if you like to eat breakfast overlooking a beutiful lake and forests ,it is very quiet with plenty of places to explore. It should be made clear that only some of the facilities are available when the hotel is being used in the summer as a hotel not a conference centre.
Excellent location, beautiful scenery. Helpful staff. Breakfast very good during events, only basic on other days (check with staff beforehand to avoid surprises). Good alternative to (more expensive places in) Stockholm, if you have a car and do not mind the 45 minutes drive. Be prepared for dealing with mosquitoes
nice landscape , fair breakfast very small , minimize room facilities
I like most the location in country and very good breakfast. Also I sleep very well. Everything went fine.

Occupational therapy consistently ranks high as one of the top jobs.
Read recent news articles about occupational therapy.
Find out how occupational therapy helps people with polytraumatic injuries.
What does the evidence say about social isolation for older adults? And why is it more common during the holidays? The first AOTA Everyday Evidence podcast has the answers. Listen to the AOTA Everyday Evidence Podcast on Holiday Blues to the right or listen to the podcast on Stitcher.
For more information, check out the Occupational Therapy Practice Guidelines for Productive Aging Community-Dwelling Older Adults and the American Journal of Occupational Therapy Special Issue on the Relationship Between Occupation and Productive Aging.
Stephanie Yamkovenko: Holiday lights. Cheerful music. Red cups at Starbucks. It should be the most wonderful time of the year, right? But there are many things that can bring us down: shorter days, colder temperatures, inclement weather keeping us indoors, and the stress of finding the right gift for everyone on our lists.
We may all be at risk of having a Blue Christmas ala Elvis Presley, but this is even more of a problem for older adults.
Today we are talking to Melissa Stutzbach, AOTA's Project Coordinator, contributor to the Evidence-Based Practice Project, and graduate of the Ithaca College occupational therapy program, about how older adults are more at risk for social isolation especially this time of year.
Hi, Melissa.
Melissa Stutzbach: Hey, Stephanie. Happy to be here.
Yamkovenko: So first can you just tell us what is social isolation and why are older adults more likely to experience it?
Stutzbach: So social isolation refers to a complete or near complete lack of social contact and activity with others and older adults are more vulnerable to this for many reasons. Often, the death of friends and significant others, which is a reality for many older adults, can take a significant hit on their social support system. We also know that many older adults experience mobility or cognitive limitations that affect their driving ability. And with limited access to transportation, it's really hard to get out into the community to spend time with family and friends.
Yamkovenko: Ok, so older adults can be lonely and isolated. But how does that affect them? What's the benefit of being more engaged in their community?
Stutzbach: So research shows that a lack of social activity is associated with negative health outcomes such as dementia and chronic conditions. But on the other hand, there is also strong evidence that a healthy social life can positively impact cognitive and physical function as you age. Research shows that people who are socially active, not only are they going to be happier and have a higher quality of life, but they're going to live longer.
Yamkovenko: They're going to live longer?
Stutzbach: Yep
Yamkovenko: That's great. So research shows the benefits of social contact, but what does that look like?
Stutzbach: So social contact is really going to take on different meaning for each person, depending on what is important to the person. So for example I know of an older adult that enjoyed getting together to play video games. People can build social networks in all kinds of different ways.
Yamkovenko: Sore there things that older adults can do every day to increase their social contact?
Stutzbach: Well interestingly enough, internet use is increasing more than ever for those 65 and older. My personal favorites are programs such as Facetime or Skype that allow you to video call on your phone or on your computer. So for those older adults that have difficulty leaving the house to see their loved ones otherwise, that face to face connection, though virtual, can help maintain relationships and a sense of connectedness.
Yamkovenko: Ok so that's great. So they can stay in contact with people even if they are far apart. And so what else can they do, can older adults do, if friends and families aren't close by?
Stutzbach: Older adults can build and strengthen their social networks right within their own community. Local senior centers or community centers often have a lot to offer such as educational classes, exercise programs, and social groups. I suggest finding a hobby you enjoy sharing with others, commit it to your schedule, and once it becomes a part of your routine, you are more likely to attend and build a community of friends with similar interests. Volunteer opportunities are also a great way to meet people. If you get the chance to volunteer with younger generations, you may benefit from their youthful energy and then it is a great chance to share your wisdom and knowledge from many years of life experience. They'll feel an enhanced sense of self-worth.
Yamkovenko: So these are great ideas for not being socially isolated, but really this can be a scary thing to start. So where can older adults begin? And how can they know which activity would work best for them? Is there someone who could help them with this?
Stutzbach: Well occupational therapy practitioners are well positioned to help address the issue of social isolation in older adults. To start, we will help you identify interests and social activities that you find meaningful and enjoyable and help you figure out how these can be used to expand your social network. We will then take a closer look at any barriers that might be getting in the way. So for example, for many transportation can be a large issue especially if you have a disability or limitation. With the help of occupational therapy, you can problem solve these issues and become more involved with your community and with the friends and family you love.
Yamkovenko: So how do you make sure that these are things older adults actually want to do?
Stutzbach: So it's really important to avoid assumptions that older adults like certain activities solely based on their age. It is also important to remember that new and even familiar social experiences might cause stress and anxiety for some, especially those recovering from the loss of a loved one. Occupational therapy practitioners work together with clients to accommodate their needs, interests, and comfort level.
Yamkovenko: Ok thanks, Melissa. So let's recap: We're all at risk for getting a little blue during the holidays, but older adults are even more at risk of social isolation. This isolation can affect our health. Thankfully social activity can help us stay cognitively and physically healthy as we age. There are many ways that older adults can get more social contact, and the best way for them to learn about these is to enlist the help of an occupational therapy practitioner. So Melissa, how can older adults get in touch with an occupational therapy practitioners?
Stutzbach: Well you can ask for a referral from your physician or contact an occupational therapy practice or your state occupational therapy association. If you want to learn more about occupational therapy, you can visit the American Occupational Therapy Association's website at www.aota.org.
Yamkovenko: Great. Thank you. So now it's time to grab a friend and celebrate getting out of the holidays blues rut with a gingerbread latte in a red cup. I'm Stephanie Yamkovenko, web editor at AOTA. Thank you for listening.

The Miami Dolphins are taking a long look at former New England Patriots wide receiver Jabar Gaffney. Although battling a thigh injury, Gaffney has been holding out for a chance to re-sign with the Pats. Agent Drew Rosenhaus believes the Dolphins will sign Gaffney or Donte' Stallworth. New England appears to have moved on since trading for Greg Salas . Gaffney could figure into the starting lineup should he sign with Miami.
Fantasy Analysis:
The Dolphins are trying to scrap together a team and the offense seems to be in trouble with only Reggie Bush being a viable fantasy star. Ryan Tannehill has a below average tight end and a receiving corps full of "fours, fives and sixes" just as general manager Jeff Ireland stated during the taping of "Hard Knocks." Bringing in Gaffney couldn't hurt, but he's a free agent now for a reason.

The Persecution Complex of the Modern Introvert
According to some, extraverts have taken over our churches and our culture, marginalizing introverts in the process. But what if there is no grand conspiracy against introverts? Hello, my name is Jason Morehead and I'm an introvert.That means pretty much what you think it means. If left to my druthers, I will almost always choose solitude over social engagements. Extensive interactions can be very exhausting for me, even if I truly like and appreciate the people with whom I'm inter … [Read more...]
Does the Church Have Room for Science Fiction?
Back in 2011, The Catholic World Report posted a piece titled "The Cross and The Stars" that looked at the possibility for Catholics (or any Christians, presumably) to find value in science fiction (aka, "speculative fiction") literature. It begins by noting the potential challenges that the genre poses for Christians: What do Worlds of If have to do with Jerusalem? Do Catholic writers have a place among the wizards of fantasy and the starships of science fiction? The very pervasiveness of … [Read more...]

#1 Ranked Children's Hospital by U.S. News & World Report
MyPatients provides referring primary care providers with secure access to their patients' information.
Boston Children's has launched the world's 1st program dedicated to offering hand transplants to children who qualify.

There are many ways you can help children and their families get the care they need.
Wilson's disease is a rare inherited disorder that can cause liver damage and other life-threatening conditions.
In Wilson's disease, your child's body is unable to excrete excess copper (found in many foods), which builds up in the liver.
This causes progressive damage to your child's liver.
Eventually, the copper is released into your child's bloodstream and deposits in other organs including the brain, kidneys and eyes (corneas).
It affects about one in 30,000 people worldwide.
Without treatment, Wilson's disease may cause severe complications, including some that are life threatening.
Pioneering research
Faculty members of the Boston Children's Hospital Liver Transplant Program are conducting clinical studies to better understand why children's livers fail and how we can improve our success rate in liver transplantation. We are constantly striving to translate our research findings into tangible treatments that can help sick children.
We are grateful to have been ranked #1 on U.S. News & World Report's list of the best children's hospitals in the nation for the third year in a row, an honor we could not have achieved without the patients and families who inspire us to do our very best for them. Thanks to you, Boston Children's is a place where we can write the greatest children's stories ever told."

Giving Back
The Big Give
At Salon 926, altruism is a year-round business.
It's one thing to donate coats to shelters and drop change into needy coffers over the holidays—that's the spirit of the season, after all. But for salon and spa owner Kerri Marioni, charity has no predetermined season.
Every February, Marioni and her staff at Salon 926 in Wilmington, Delaware, cook meals for families staying at the local Ronald McDonald House. In June, the salon holds a popular cut-a-thon and pet adoption day, donating all proceeds to local animal charities. In September, Marioni donates a percentage of the spa's income to the International Myeloma Foundation. This month? It's all about the poinsettias. "We sell them for the local SPCA [Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals], which is a no-kill shelter," Marioni says. "Our clients are really animal people and they're so charitable and loyal!" Which is exactly the sort of thing Salon 926 clients would say about Marioni.
OK, let's start with February.
That's when we volunteer at the Ronald McDonald House, usually over Valentine's weekend. [Ed. note: The House hosts visiting families of children who are seeking medical attention for serious illnesses at the nearby Nemours/Alfred I. DuPont Hospital for Children.] Many of our clients have benefited from that amazing hospital. The staff goes all together to cook meals. We even bring nieces and nephews to get involved.
You're also involved in animal charities?
We do events for the SPCA and the local Humane Society. This June, we did our first benefit for Angels Among Us Animal Sanctuary, a volunteer shelter that takes in senior dogs. We start at 11 a.m. and finish by 4 p.m., doing haircuts and services at about a 25% discount across the board. All the money goes to the shelter. We also have dogs in the salon! It's a really fun day.
But the annual Myeloma Foundation Fundraiser is personal for you, isn't it?
Yes, in September it was seven years since my father died from multiple myeloma. He was born September 1, 1926—that's where we got the name for the salon. After he passed away, I struggled. Opening a salon kept me busy and focused on good stuff. For the month of September, we donate a percentage of the month's entire sales to the Foundation. It's a group that really supported my family when we were learning about this disease. We felt like we could call them anytime with questions.
How do you publicize the event?
We put up a big banner outside and send press releases. The staff hand out pamphlets about the Foundation and tell clients my father's story. We also sell raffle tickets. I always ask local businesses to donate gift certificates for the raffle. Last year, the Phillies sent us a signed baseball and some autographed pictures.
How do you get your staff so motivated to participate?
I have the most amazing team of girls. I kind of hire people based on their hearts—just making sure they're in the same place. Who we are and what we do is about more than just hair. We want to make an impact on the lives of people in our community. When it comes to hiring, I find that you can always help people grow their talent but you can't turn them into a nice person.
How do you select charities?
Well, we do the Delaware Humane Society because I'm an animal lover and have good friends who've worked there for a long time. Even before I owned a salon, I've always worked on benefits for animal shelters. Clients also ask me to get involved in various causes and I try to be open-minded.
Do you see a rise in business from all your good works?
We have definitely gained business through our animal charity work. And we're also now on the Ronald McDonald website and people come to us because of that. Of course, that's not why you do it, it's not your intent, but it does end up helping. It also allows our clients to see what kind of people we are and why we do great work.
What would your dad have said about all this?
He actually never wanted me to open my own business because he thought I'd have to work too hard. But I love my work! My father was a builder, so we did some stuff for Habitat for Humanity after he passed and donated his car to them. He always loved that about me and my brother and sister, that we try to give back as best as we can. It's a rewarding feeling for everybody involved. Not just for us, but for the people who received and who participated.
Like your staff?
Yes, I love what it does for us as a group. We want to see how much money we can raise, and we get so excited if an animal gets a home. The clients get excited just hearing us talk about it. They always say to me, 'It's so friendly in here and everyone's so respectful to each other.' But, that's just the way we are. I mean, I clean the toilets if they need it, I don't care! We're all like that here. Nobody's better than anyone else. When I look around, I'm so proud to be part of such an amazing group of women.

|Half Baths
|968 sq. ft.
|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|6 nights
The apartment is situated on the promenade of Palma, in front of Club de Mar and next to the Porto Pi shopping center.
The apartment I've recently renovated choosing every aspect of interior design with great care and affection. The result is a cozy, warm and quiet space.
There is a double bedroom, a bathroom and a toilet.
The apartment has a terrace with furniture to hang out or enjoy meals outdoors.
The kitchen is fully equipped with electric oven, fridge and freezer.
I work as an architect and after training and working abroad for many years, I came back to Palma where I set up my practice. I bought this convenient property due to its fabulous location and because it had been in the family since it was built. The apartment is on the third floor and has light from the front and back, the distribution is very comfortable and makes the best use of the space.
After refurbishing the apartment, I lived there for a couple of years and I will make sure everything is ready for you.
Lucila purchased this condo in 2012
The property has been in the family for many years, it used to belong to my grandparents and then to my parents! Now it is mine and I love it!
What is great about it is that it is so well located, I am close to absolutely everything, that it is so nicely decorated and is very comfortable.
The advantages of my home are how tastefully and comfortably refurbished it is (if I may say so myself!!). I love the feeling of calmness and peace that invades me when I arrive.
There is a supermarket downstairs on the ground floor and many convenience stores all around. You can walk to all the main sites in Palma and the sea is only 10 minutes away!
Wonderful apartment with amazing views, with private parking, and easy access to public transport, both to town and Airport. The apartment was well equipped and spotlessly clean, and the owner , Pilar was very friendly and helpful. Just a short walk behind the building is a mall and Carrefour supermarket which is very convenient. My Wife and I would definitely recommend this apartment, and hope to return ourselves.
It is always great when you find a perfect holiday apartment that suits just a couple of people - that's what we found here at Palma. The views are breathtaking and ever changing with daily views of impressive cruise ships coming and going.
This top level apartment is really quiet and surrounded by mainly residential flats that are well spaced. The rooms are extremely well furnished and made for a very comfortable two week break.
We also made use of the large underground car park which is a real bonus in area that is busy with cars as it is very close to a popular shopping centre that makes a perfect partner to this apartment. It has a range of good value restaurants and a huge supermarket that has everything you need to amek good use of the well equipped kitchen.
We used this apartment as great base to tour the rest of the island by car and it is well placed to access both local roads and motorways. You could even make use of the daily ferry to Ibiza that leaves just a short walk from the block.
We had great support from Pilar both by email in advance and whilst at the apartment. I do not normally write reviews - but this is the exception. If you are looking at this apartment - then it probably is for you. Just don't book the weeks that we will want to use when we visit again.
We loved this apartment, which is airy, spacious and elegantly furnished, with all mod cons. It has extensive views across the bay of Palma and good access to the motorway for visiting other areas of the island. Pilar, the owner, and her agent Silvia, were very helpful both before and during our stay. To go into town in the evening, we left our car in the underground garage and walked to the nearest bus stop (2/3 minutes). Rififi, the restaurant opposite the bus stop, was also very good. Would definitely recommend
Das Appartement ist genau wie auf den Bildern abgebildet. Die Ausstattung ist modern und die Wohnung sauber. Man findet alles, was man an Ausstattung benötigt. Die traumhafte Aussicht ist nicht zu übertreffen und man kann zu jeder Tageszeit die großen Kreuzfahrtschiffe von dem Balkon aus beobachten.
Der Strand von Cala Major ist 4 Stationen mit dem Bus ( der fast vor der Tür hält und jede 10 Minuten fährt) entfernt. Palma Stadt erreicht man in ca. 20 Minuten mit dem Bus. Wir würden das Apartment immer wieder buchen. Herzlichen Dank nochmal an Pilar und Mony!!
The apartment is exactly as shown on the pictures.
It is clean, modern and inviting and equipped with everything you need. The view from the balcony is absolutely incredible as you can watch the cruise ships come in anytime of the day. The beach of Cala Major is only four stops away with the bus (which stops right in front of the door and leaves every 10 minutes). To get to Palma City it takes about 20 minutes with the bus. We loved the apartment and would book it again anytime. Thanks a lot again to Pilar and Mony!!!
Vi hyrde denna lägenhet en vecka och är supernöjda. Fantastiskt läge, nära till butik, buss och hamn. Bra sängar. Egentligen promenadavstånd till city men ok, har man svårt att gå blir det långt men då fanns buss. Vi hoppas kunna komma tillbaka.
Das ist wirklich eine wunderbare Wohnung. Die Aussicht auf den Hafen und die ein- und auslaufenden Kreuzfahrtschiffe ist umwerfend. Pilar hat uns mit frischen Blumen empfangen und uns bei allem liebevoll unterstützt. Die Wohnung ist individuell und hochwertig eingerichtet und sehr sauber.
Thats a wonderful apartment. The views towards the harbour and the in- and outgoing cruise liners are spectacular. We found fresh flowers in the perferct clean apartment and Pilar was super friendly and helpful in all aspects. The furniture gives a valuable, individual and comfortable impression.
The property is on the promenade of Palma, in front of Club de Mar. It has parking and direct access to the motorway to travel around the island, both beautiful inland villages and its fantastic beaches. This close to the Nautical Club and golf courses. There are also restaurants nearby.
and the Porto Pi shopping center with shops and a supermarket.

unify certain PlayBook functions with a BlackBerry handset so that users could have their contact list on both. While RIM works toward a unified list (which iOS and Android users already enjoy), the tablet for now, will still have a separate and distinct PIN code. Meanwhile, PlayBook owners could rejoice in the knowledge that finally the tablet would have a contact list, email, BBM, and calendar functions.
Electronista speculates that the update could show itself at BlackBerry DevCon which starts October 18th. While the BlackBerry Bridge has helped some with both a BlackBerry phone and the PlayBook cover some of the missing functions of the tablet, it is just another black eye for RIM as features that iOS and Android users take for granted become a hassle to obtain for those using devices branded with the BlackBerry name.

Federalist Society Teleforum Conference Call
Featured Speakers:
Andrew R. Kloster
Darpana Sheth
Everyone knows that the proceeds and instrumentalities of a crime are confiscable by the state. What they don't know is that the laws that authorize this type of "civil forfeiture" are subject to abuse. Some allege that state and federal law enforcement authorities use civil forfeiture as a revenue-generation tool, creating perverse incentives. This system sometimes falls on innocent owners, many of whom don't have the legal skills or money to fight back. Our experts will discuss whether this area of our legal system is in need of reform.
- Mr. Andrew R. Kloster, Legal Fellow, Edwin Meese III Legal Center, The Heritage Foundation
- Ms. Darpana Sheth, Attorney, Institute for Justice
Call begins at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
Teleforum calls are open to all dues paying members of the Federalist Society. To become a member, sign up here. As a member, you should receive email announcements of upcoming Teleforum calls which contain the conference call phone number.

Little Knell (2000)
by Catherine Aird
No current Talk conversations about this book.
I had read and enjoyed several of [a:Catherine Aird|92062|Catherine Aird|http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1207671778p2/92062.jpg]'s books in the 70s and 80s, and for some reason thought she had stopped writing. Acquiring the book [b:A Reader's Guide to the Classic British Mystery|3829529|A Reader's Guide to The Classic British Mystery|Susan Prince Oleskiw|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1266965174s/3829529.jpg|3874170] by [a:Susan Oleksiw|372382|Susan Oleksiw|http://www.goodreads.com/images/nophoto/nophoto-U-50x66.jpg] reminded me of Aird and, looking for one I hadn't read, I discovered this relatively recent (2000) book in her series about Inspector C. D. Sloan of the Calleshire Constabulary. (Calleshire appears to be somewhere on the south coast of England.)
I recall Aird's earlier books as having a rather quirky sensibility for an English police procedural, and that trait is still present here. Touches of humor appear throughout and the plot is sufficiently convoluted for anyone. But for some reason, which I can't quite put my finger on, I didn't think this book was as good as the earlier ones. It was short, though; I finished it in one evening even though several hours of that evening were spent in the car and attending a play. If you are interested in trying Catherine Aird, I'd recommend going to one of her early books like [b:The Religious Body.] In [b:Little Knell|1490181|Little Knell|Catherine Aird|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1311988055s/1490181.jpg|1481430] (and I never did figure out what the relevance of the title to the book might be), Aird seemed to be phoning it in.

However, the coroner does not consider it a straightforward job--for a body, however ancient, has been moved without his consent. And Detective Inspector Sloan is sent to sort out the red tape.

Scott Richmond Gets the Call to Las Vegas
Looks like this was a bit of a belated birthday present as Scott Richmond's birthday was yesterday, but looks like he's been called up from New Hampshire to Triple A Las Vegas.
Scott Richmond will make the start tonight for the Las Vegas 51's on the road in Sacramento. Richmond made his final appearance for the Fisher Cats last Thursday going five innings while surrendering two earned runs but fanning eight.
He performed very well in two rehab starts down in Double A: 10 IP, 3 ER, 7 H, 0 BB and 14 K.
Originally it was thought that the Fisher Cats might hang onto Scott Richmond to use for their playoff roster, but I guess the Blue Jays wanted to put him on the fast track back to the majors.
By starting this evening with the 51's, that puts Richmond on track to start next on Sunday against the Yankees if the Blue Jays do in fact call him up for a spot start.
One can imagine it's probably a coin flip right now between Scott Richmond and Brad Mills. Although, Brad Mills has had a bit of an extended break between starts as he hasn't pitched last in Las Vegas since August 17th.
It wouldn't be completely out of the question to see both Scott Richmond and Brad Mills called up tomorrow, but my gut tells me the move to call up Richmond from New Hampshire to Las Vegas means he's on track to start Sunday's game for the Blue Jays.
Either way, welcome back Scott and hopefully you'll be back in a Blue Jays uniform very soon!

False Revivals
Every Friday Apostle Eric delivers the word of the Lord live as guest on Rev. Tillmons Radio program. Todays message is part 2 of Apostle Erics August 15, 2008 broadcast. The Spirit of the Lord ministers to the church about false revivals, speaking candidly about the Laughter Movement and teaching the church how to discern between the revival of the Holy Ghost and current false revivals. Christians are now asking, Who are the stewards that God set in place to give eyes to the church? Apostle Eric also talks about Jesus promise to you to manifest Himself to you for your experience of Him and warns the church about false stewards who use their own experience of life and lack of experience of Christ as a template for the church. Finally, Apostle Eric speaks to the church about Gods culture of truth and His system of righteousness to win back the souls for Christ who are estranged from Him. May God bless you as you prepare your hearts to seek Him today.

I'm wanting to produce a few music videos but the music needed is by big time artists. Some songs will be only acting and others will be someone singing in place of the original artist. I'm trying to find out how the process works in getting permission to use the songs in a video (I'm thinking a sync license) and permission on using the song but with someone else singing it. Any info helps and is greatly appreciated.
There's a ton of information at the BMI and ASCAP websites.

If you will be making money with the music video, then you have to buy rights to use it. (This can ver VERY expensive) If you are just making it for fun and to show to family and friends etc., then you don't need permission to use it because you are not using it commercially. Example: I once made a music video as a Christmas gift for my Grandmother using a Josh Groban song. She watches it, and my family saw it, but thats about it.
I wouldn't put it on the web though, because you could get in trouble for that.
Hope this helps.
you cannot legally use any copyrighted material without the permission of the copyright holder, regardless of the fact you make money on it or not.
Hey everyone. Wanted to say thanks for all the help & suggestions. At least I have a direction to go in. Again, Thanks.
There's a ton of information at the BMI and ASCAP websites.
Definitely the best place to find the details you're looking for.

PHNOM PENH – A Taiwanese woman has been charged with human trafficking after allegedly sending hundreds of Cambodians to work in slavelike conditions on fishing boats off Africa, police said Wednesday.
Lin Yu Shin, owner of the now defunct Giant Ocean International Co., was arrested in the tourist hub of Siem Reap last Friday, according to Chiv Phally of the Interior Ministry's department tackling human trafficking.
Chiv Phally said the 53-year-old had been charged by a Phnom Penh court, adding that she has been under investigation since late 2011 when allegations surfaced of Cambodian fishermen working at sea for up to 20 hours a day without pay. "This is a serious case of human trafficking," he said.
Lin's firm allegedly began sending Cambodian workers to man trawlers off the coasts of South Africa, Mauritius and Senegal in 2009, as well as Japan, Fiji, Qatar, Malaysia and Singapore, he said.

The Nexus S hits the so-called "sweet spot" with a 4 inch Super AMOLED display, and under the hood is a single-core 1GHz Hummingbird processor. While that might seem so 2010, it still gets the job done. A 5MP camera on the back captures video at 720p (30 fps) and there is a front-facing VGA camera on board. 512MB of RAM graces the handset which is NFC enabled. Best Buy is offering the Nexus S for $99.99 with a signed two year contract, and it is available only in Henry Ford's favorite color.
Yeah, there are many other Android handsets out there with higher-end specs, but if stock Android is your thing, you might want to give up a bit on the power side to get the Gingerbread OS in its purest form. And for those who were going to pay 6 large ones to get an unlocked model with AT&T's 3G frequencies on board., you can now pick up the subsidized version in exchange for one C note and a signature. Ah, isn't life grand?

I can't believe that this is my 400th post and it's going to be a review for you today! It feels like ages since i last did one and I'm super excited about this particular product, which is Maybelline's Fit Me Foundation.
I was so intrigued by this foundation when i first hear about it but i didn't really have any intention of buying it because i was so smitten by Rimmel's Wake Me Up Foundation. Originally, i was just going to trial the sample (which still hasn't turned up) because i was curious by the idea of a gel foundation but i found myself in town swatching the foundations and really like the formulation and i was really surprised to see that the 115 was a perfect match for my skin tone. Its the lightest shade and looking just at the bottle alone it looks like it would be really pale for me but it blended in perfectly and i just had to have it...now for some reason a lot of shops don't stock this shade or were sold out of it, so i ended up having to order it online.
It arrived really quickly and the foundation did not disappoint - this shade is actually perfect for me and it blended it out perfectly, leaving my skin with a really natural and flawless finish to it. It also feels really nice to apply to the skin, its really smooth and it feels nice and light on the skin. I really don't like it when its so heavy you can literally feel the foundation on your skin.
Id say this medium coverage but its definitely buildable if you need more. I'm fairly lucky and only get the odd blemish so this is the ideal amount of coverage for me. I always set my foundation with powder so i can't comment on the longevity of it without powder but with powder it lasts me for the majority of the day, which is really good.
One thing i really like about these foundations is that the shades are made to suit the undertones of your skin (pinks/yellows) - there is a colour guide available as well to help you find the right shade and they also suggest which shades of the concealer and powder you should get depending on the shade of foundation you are matched too which i think its a really great idea.
This photo was taken on a night out the other week - I wanted to sure you how the foundation looks with the rest of my make up so you could get a better idea of it that just a swatch on my hand.
I'm so happy i decided to go an swatch this because i really like it. I think its one of the best drugstore foundations i have ever used and I think this might actually beat Rimmel London's Wake Me Up Foundation which i absolutely love. It retails for £7.99 (i think?) and I'm so happy i decided to buy this because i love how it makes my skin look.
Have you tried this?
Your thoughts?

Date of Defense 2005-12-15 Availability unrestricted AbstractLouisiana wetlands are disappearing at a dramatic rate, providing an impetus for identifying essential fish habitat (EFH) in this region. The distribution, relative abundance, biomass, length and food web dynamics of spotted seatrout, Cynoscion nebulosus, as well as the fish assemblage structure were examined in Barataria Bay, LA, in relation to habitat type and physical/chemical properties of the water. All fish were collected from three sites located along a salinity gradient, each contained the three habitat types of interest: marsh edge, soft bottom and oyster shell, and were sampled monthly from May 2003 to May 2004 with gillnets. Habitat preference of spotted seatrout was not easily defined by habitat type alone, but rather their distribution, relative abundance, biomass and length distribution were influenced by a combination of habitat and physical/chemical properties of the water. Stable isotope analyses suggest that individual spotted seatrout may not move widely throughout Barataria Bay, but rather they may exhibit some site fidelity with preference for salinity ranges within the bay. Salinity was also an important variable structuring the fish assemblage in Barataria Bay, resulting in a distinct composition of species at the oligohaline site as compared to the mesohaline and polyhaline sites. The fish assemblage structure also differed among habitat types and could generally be divided into three categories; those species only or mostly found at the marsh edge, those species found at all three habitat types, and a few species that had a higher affinity for soft bottom and oyster shell habitats. These results suggest that habitat type and physical/chemical properties of the water work in concert with one another to provide a diverse range of available habitats important to estuarine fishes. Despite the importance of incorporating habitat in fisheries management, it may not be possible to identify which habitats are essential versus which ones are temporarily occupied. This study demonstrates that identifying EFH is a difficult task and illustrates that an ecosystem approach may be the best method when working towards identifying EFH given the influence of the physical/chemical properties of the water and the species-specific habitat associations identified in this study.

Caribbean Chemistry: Tales From St. Kitts (edition 2010)
by Christopher Vanier
Work details
Caribbean Chemistry: Tales from St Kitts by Christopher Vanier
No current Talk conversations about this book.
I found Caribbean Chemistry by Christopher Vanier a very pleasant and interesting memoir about growing up on the island of St. Kitts. Vanier recalls the fun and mischief of his younger years and along with his colourful carefree days is the reminder that there were tensions of who one could play with, and how one was viewed by their depth of their color. This book is peppered by the events that shaped Vanier in his youth. St. Kitts was slowly emerging from it's colonial existence and Christopher Vanier captures the small island's effort to find balance and purpose in the modern world.
Christopher was educated both at boarding school in Antigua as well as on his home island, and he knew from an early age that he wanted to be a chemist so with the help of a scholarship that was fiercely contended for, he was able to expand his horizon by studying Chemical Engineering at Cambridge University in England.
As Caribbean Chemistry only goes until Christopher was 19 I felt it was perhaps a shade too long but it definitely pulled me in as he shares the topography of his life and his island. I enjoyed the expansive view of this tiny corner of the Caribbean.
A fascinating memoir of growing up in a loving family on a peaceful, beautiful, but ultimately suffocating island. Vanier clearly loved his homeland but in the end he saw the wisdom in getting away. This book covers his life up to age 19, at which time he set off for Cambridge University. You learn about mountain climbing in St. Kitts, the perils of owning a pet monkey, the cold atmosphere of Anglo-Caribbean boarding schools, the fierce competition for scholarships, and the deep limitations that (back then at least) were part and parcel with colonial life. Vanier's book (which, at around 400 pages of tiny print, may be a bit longer than necessary) is ultimately a love letter to St. Kitts, but you understand why he made the decision to leave.

Reese Witherspoon Greeted With a Parking Ticket in Brentwood
Kicking off her weekend with an early morning sweat session, Reese Witherspoon headed to a yoga class in Brentwood, CA on Friday (March 7).
The "Legally Blonde" cutie sported a pair of black capris with a grey graphic as she made her way outside the busy facility and was unfortunately greeted by a parking ticket sitting on top of her windshield.
Earlier in the week, Witherspoon took a trip to Napa Valley with gal pals Cameron Diaz and Drew Barrymore. While enjoying time away from Hollywood, Reese took to her Instagram account with pics from the trip.
"Making spinach ricotta raviolis and fresh pasta!! #CIA #GT2014," she captioned the photo, featuring her creating the delicious meal.
The 37-year-old actress also posted a pic with the group posing outside a taco stand and wrote, "Tacos gracias with @gucciwestman @drewbarrymore @LonaVigi @oliveandsalt @camerondiaz #GT2014 #napa."

The Dutch edition of 1623 contains a chapter on Obbe Philips, and in an appendix some information on Menno Simons, Dirk Philips, and their followers. For Mennonite history this book is of no value, but the 17 engravings by Christoffel van Sichern which these books contain (the first Dutch edition has only 9) are valuable. Among these engravings there are portraits of Thomas Müntzer, Balthasar Hubmaier, Hans Hut, Ludwig Haetzer, Melchior Rinck, Melchior Hoffman, Jan Matthijsz van Haarlem, Jan Beukelsz (van Leyden), David Joris, and Adam Pastor. Menno Simons and Obbe Philips are not represented. The portraits of course have no guarantee of historical verisimilitude, since they were all made many years after the death of the subjects, and of all but one there were no contemporary representations.

Top British jockey Robert Winston was banned from race riding for 12 months at a resumed Horseracing Regulatory Authority disciplinary hearing in London Feb. 16.
Winston is one of four riders found guilty, under British racing's rules, of providing information for reward or corrupt gain.
Fran Ferris has been warned off for two years, meaning that he is barred from entering HRA licensed premises, such as racecourses or racing stables for the duration of his ban, while Luke Fletcher and Robbie Fitzpatrick have both been warned off for three years.
Winston's ban is less severe and the withdrawal of his license allows him to continue riding home work for trainers and attending race meetings. The HRA accepted mitigating circumstances and that he had not pulled any horses.
Even so, the guilty verdict is a massive blow to 27-year-old Winston, who harbored realistic hopes of becoming champion jockey in Britain.
The talented Irishman has emerged as one of the leading riders over the past three years. His breakthough campaign came in 2004 when he enjoyed a first group I victory in the Cheveley Park Stakes aboard Magical Romance at Newmarket and ended the campaign with 124 wins for his first top 10 finish.
Winston was close to a first British jockeys' championship in 2005, but a horrific fall at Ayr racetrack that August left him with serious facial injuries and the resultant recuperative period enabled his rivals, headed by subsequent champion Jamie Spencer, the opportunity to overtake the lead he had established.
Multiple champion trainer Sir Michael Stoute has been Winston's principal patron for the past two years, providing him with 26 of 136 winners that saw him end 2006 as the fourth winning-most rider in Britain for the second successive year.
The HRA verdict was delivered to the jockeys three weeks after the conclusion, on Jan. 23, of a closed eight and a half day hearing that focused on 37 races contested between June 16, 2003 and Feb. 29, 2004. In those races, 21 horses were ridden by Winston, 11 by Fletcher, four by Ferris, and two by Fitzpatrick.
Winston, Ferris, and Fletcher were also alleged to have misled HRA security department investigators and provided them with inaccurate information. Fitzpatrick was additionally charged with hindering or obstructing the investigation.
It was alleged that the four riders were involved with former bookmaker Ian Nicholl, Kim Evans, Paul Glendenning, Joanne Roberts, and Tegan Wilde, all Betfair account holders who made a profit of £48,000 during the period under investigation. Nicholl has been warned off indefinitely.
The HRA disciplinary panel said Fitzpatrick had broken Rule 243 by passing information for reward to Nicholl for one of his two rides and that he was the go-between for all the Ferris and Winston rides. It judged he had broken Rule 241 (i) (b) by hindering an investigation and Rule 220 (viii) by misleading investigators.
However, he was found not in breach of intentionally not riding a horse on its merits in the knowledge the horse had been laid to lose.
The panel reported Winston's case was the most difficult to resolve, but his involvement was "of a less serious character than that of the other jockeys".
It found Winston was supplying inside information to Nicholl via Fitzpatrick, but "this did not include any indication that he would if necessary ride in a way designed to ensure the success of the lay betting".
Fletcher and Ferris were both found in breach of Rules 243 and 220 (vii) and they were guilty of intentionally not riding specific horses on their merits in the knowledge they had been laid to lose. The horses in question for Fletcher were Hoh's Back, Blandys, and Larky's Lob, while the rides in question for Ferris involved Penric and Claptrap.
A statement issued on behalf of Winston was issued afterwards by Christopher Stewart-
Moore of Ralph Davis Solicitors.
It stated: "Robert Winston is shocked and disappointed by the HRA disciplinary panel's finding that he was in breach of Rule 243 in giving information for reward.
"This disappointment is tempered to some degree by the panel finding that they accepted that it was no part of the information he gave that he would ride to lose if necessary, and their further finding that in no instance did he in fact ride to lose.
"The panel's finding against Mr. Winston is based on their 'inference' that Mr. Winston received a reward from Mr. Nicholl for providing him with information.
"For the avoidance of doubt, Mr. Winston received no reward from Mr. Nicholl - or anyone else for that matter - in relation to the information that he is alleged to have given. No physical evidence of a reward was put to the panel and no such evidence exists.
"Mr. Winston never spoke to Mr. Nicholl and was completely unaware of his existence at the relevant time. There are two further factors that militate against the likelihood of Mr. Winston receiving a reward for the information he allegedly gave to Mr. Nicholl.
"The first is the average starting price of the horses ridden by Mr. Winston and laid by Mr. Nicholl, which is in the region of 23/1. Information given to the effect that a horse at such a price was likely to lose would not on the face of it appear to have much, if any, intrinsic value - particularly as it was the case (as it was here) that the jockey would be doing his best.
"Secondly, Mr. Nicholl actually made a loss laying Robert Winston's rides, as is now revealed from the bookmakers' accounts.
"One aspect of the judgement in which Mr. Winston is particularly disappointed is the panel's failure to take into account the fact that in relation to some of the horses laid by Mr. Nicholl and ridden by Mr. Winston there was no means of communication to Mr. Nicholl. This fact entirely supported Mr Nicholl's evidence that he often laid horses ridden by Mr. Winston without any communication with Mr. Fitzpatrick.
"The level of penalty imposed in the circumstances is extremely harsh."
The HRA took the unusual step of giving the four riders advance notice of the verdicts the previous day, Feb. 15, in order to allow their legal representatives time to prepare pleas for mitigation.
While Winston and Fitzpatrick have continued to ride, Fletcher voluntarily relinquished his licence in August and the HRA stripped Ferris of his licence in October after deeming him not to be a "fit and proper person" to pursue his profession.
Winston's last ride was a winning one aboard Hypnosis in a low-grade five-furlong handicap at Southwell racetrack the previous afternoon.
Following the adjournment of the HRA inquiry in January, Winston had protested his innocence, telling the Irish Independent, "I just want to ride horses," before adding, "I am determined to become champion jockey some day, with God's help."
The sentences are seen as deterrents to other riders being tempted to break racing's rules..
The HRA is due to hear similar cases later this year, while there is a criminal case brought by the police involving former champion jockey Kieren Fallon who is not allowed to ride in Britain pending the result of that trial.
