With the economic hardship in the country, it is important to be smart with your money. Even the most fiscal responsible among us, can make financial mistakes, especially for the love of fashion. However, there are simple ways to ensure you are saving your coins and not spending frivolously, at least on fashion items.
Do an inventory check. Jenna Suhl, who has worked as a wardrobe stylist in San Francisco for more than a decade, told me, "It's not uncommon for people to buy new things because they have so much they can't see what they already have." Suhl recommends weeding out what's worn, ill-fitting, unmatchable, or a style that no longer suits. That's not only true for clothing and accessories, but also tools, household products, and knickknacks. Another woman once mentioned to me that she actually bought the exact same serving platter twice, forgetting that she already owned it. "At least I have consistent taste," she laughed, "but clearly I have too much stuff."
Buy good quality—and use it. Perhaps counterintuitively, I've found that it's common for people to almost never use the things they love the most—a favorite pair or jeans, a vintage Mustang—and that give them the most pleasure. Why? Often, it's because they want to protect the item in question, because they like it so much and don't want it to be ruined. Instead of using their favorites regularly, they buy cheaper things—sometimes knockoff imitations—for "everyday" use. The unfortunate result is less satisfaction, and that lack of satisfaction often leads to more buying in the misguided hope that some new item will make us happier. In a similar vein, many people spend more money on an outfit they wear once for a special occasion than they spend the entire year on clothing they use every week, such as workout wear, jeans, or sneakers. The smarter approach is to put your money where you'll see it in action and enjoy it the most, thereby reducing purchasing cravings.
Count your blessings. First and foremost, being grateful—not just for possessions, but also for the people, places and simple pleasures in life—is good for the soul. But an attitude of gratitude is also a proven antidote to impulse purchasing because it creates a sense of abundance within the individual. When you're feeling full of gratitude, you're less likely to subconsciously try to fill emotional holes by treating yourself with gifts and accumulating more stuff.
Turn off the temptation. Imagine having a friend who was constantly telling you about seemingly terrific deals (half-off watches!), or that you simply had to try the new pizzeria in town (free dessert!). Hearing about these offers puts you in the position of considering purchases you might not otherwise have noticed. Worse, you're likely to get worn down over time, so that you end up jumping at some offer partly to reward yourself for all of the times in the past you behaved virtuously and passed on the latest bargain. These are the effects of signing up for email subscriptions from retailers and deal sites. If you're trying to rein in your spending, simply cancel those subscriptions. Forget the idea that they somehow save you money. You'll save a lot more by remaining ignorant of all those seemingly amazing bargains.
Play the waiting game. When you're tempted to buy something on a whim, wait at least 20 minutes. Then, after clearing your head, reconsider how and when you'll actually use the product. Instead of simply choosing to have it or not have it, think for a moment about what else you might prefer instead—such as the freedom of having less debt or a bigger purchase that requires saving, such as college tuition, a house or retirement. When considering larger purchases of, say, anything more than $100, make the wait period 24 hours. The typical impulse purchase seems a lot less like a "must-have" after sleeping on it.
Focus on the bottom line, not freebies. "Free" is the four-letter word that always seems to work in marketing. But the free gift with purchase, the free bottle of water while you're shopping, and the free samples can all cost you. For one thing, getting something for free creates a sense of obligation that makes it harder to say "no" to a persuasive salesperson. Shoppers also often use the free gifts included with purchase to rationalize buying something that's way beyond their budget. I've seen otherwise highly intelligent, logical people spend a fortune to get something for free. And the irony is completely lost on them.

Stortini is not that man.
And on the enforcer topic , someone said it best earlier in this thread.
It's a tool to have in your toolbox
. Doesn't matter if you don't use it often but at least if you have it at your disposition if you have to. I wouldn't care if he plays 10 games a year, 5mins a night and most of the year in the AHL or in the pressbox. It's still a weapon you have in your arsenal.
Except you have a limit of 23 tool limit in your toolbox so if you use up one on an enforcer then you have to get rid of another. For us that means Kaberle, Weber, or White. I think we already are at 24 if you include Nokelainen.

Week 4 Fantasy baseball waiver-wire talk
Fantasy owners are desperate for pitching, thanks to injury and under performance among the elite ranks. Will they find what they are looking for on the waiver wire?
At the end of every Fantasy week, I'll take a look at some of the most interesting names on the most-added players list, with an eye on their future.
Jesse Chavez, SP, Athletics; 79 percent owned, +35 percent
A change of pace making all the difference
Chavez was a two-start pitcher in Week 3, so that explains at least part of his big jump in ownership. Of course, bringing that up first is a great example of burying the lede, because Chavez's consecutive nine-strikeout starts is a much better explanation for why he has become such a highly sought after commodity. Chavez will be 31 in August, so he isn't a natural breakout candidate, but as Al Melchoir noted in a recent episode of Fantasy Baseball Today, Chavez has changed up the way he attacks hitters in a way that makes him a candidate to sustain at least some of his recent dominance.
Chavez first introduced a cut fastball into his arsenal in 2012, but it really started to pay dividends as a reliever last season, when he posted a 3.92 ERA in 57 1/3 innings, the best mark of his career. He has thrown the cutter over 40 percent of the time in two of his three starts this season, and induced a swinging strike on eight of his 47 cutters in his most recent gem. In fact, though he can reach the mid-90's with his heat, Chavez has been at his best keeping hitters off balance with his offspeed stuff, inducing a swing-and-miss on 11.4 percent of his pitches, 94.1 percent of which have come via his changeup, curveball or cutter.
Chavez probably can't sustain quite this level of success moving forward, but you can't ignore what he is doing right now. His track record of success is incredibly short, but with how many pitchers we've already seen go down with injury, Chavez looks worth a flier at the very least.
Devin Mesoraco, C, Reds; 68 percent owned, +32 percent
Back with a vengeance
Mesoraco was never quite able to find a consistent role under former Reds manager Dusty Baker, despite his pedigree as an elite prospect coming through the team's system. His play also didn't really justify a larger role, as he hit just .225/.282/.359 in 538 at-bats through his first three major-league campaigns. He looked like someone with major split issues entering this season, especially after he put up a paltry .576 OPS against RHP last season, compared to an .874 mark vs. southpaws.
Since coming off the disable list, Mesoraco is absolutely demolishing righties this season, with three home runs and 11 hits in just 20 at-bats through his first seven games. This is still a terribly small sample size, so nobody should expect Mesoraco to turn into a star all of a sudden based on a good week's worth of games. Still, given his minor-league track record -- and the fact that he is finally getting consistent at-bats -- Mesoraco seems more than worth a flier in two-catcher leagues.
Kyle Gibson, SP, Twins; 39 percent owned, +29 percent
This won't last
It says a lot about how the Twins spent their money this offseason that Kyle Gibson, making the major-league minimum, has been by fair their best pitcher so far. Gibson has been fantastic through three starts, and the team's offseason starting pitcher acquisitions have been worse than anyone could have expects so far.
Unfortunately for Minnesota -- and the 29 percent of CBSSports.com users who added Gibson this week -- we're far more likely to see Ricky Nolasco or Phil Hughes return to form than Gibson keep this up. Nobody is expecting Gibson to sustain an ERA below 1.00, but his true talent level isn't even in that stratosphere. Gibson has just one more strikeout than walk through three starts, and 90.5 percent of baserunners who have reached have been left there, compared to a 71.3 percent rate entering the season. Even as a two-start pitcher, it's hard to make an argument for Gibson being worth running out and grabbing, given his dreadful strikeout rates.
Shawn Kelley, RP, Yankees; 51 percent owned, +23 percent
The ride's over
Kelley is a pretty good relief pitcher who has been thrust into a high-profile closer's role thanks to injury. This is a story we'll see repeated all year, and Kelly isn't even the first or best example of it this season. There really isn't much to say about him; he's a solid fill-in option while David Robertson is out, and will be dumped as soon as Robertson is back. Since Robertson told reporters Saturday he is healthy enough to return to the majors, this is just about the end of the line for Kelley.
Juan Uribe, 3B, Dodgers; 37 percent owned, +21 percent
Same old Juan Uribe
It is always interesting when a known commodity sees a jump in ownership like this. At 35 years old, there isn't a soul following baseball who doesn't know exactly who Juan Uribe is. He's got some pop in his bat, but doesn't get on base much and rarely hits for average. Through 17 games, he's got 11 extra-base hits and only one walk, so he's checked off two boxes on the Juan Uribe checklist. It is that .362 batting average that jumps out at you, and probably explains why Fantasy owners are flocking to him. Uribe is a career .254 hitter who had a .237 average in three seasons with the Dodgers entering 2014, so Fantasy owners should be quick to cut bait when he starts turning into a pumpkin again.

Yes it takes time to see the effects. The NYT article mentioned in another thread looked at a study after 1-2 years.

Corporate muscle can help reshape the sector
Increasing speculation about the number of further education colleges deemed to be "struggling", "vulnerable" or at risk of failing on quality or financial issues has turned the spotlight on the sector's restructuring needs.
The potential to adopt aspects of private-sector methodology to accelerate the current merger and acquisition processes should be firmly on the political agenda.
In recent years, a number of institutions have innovated by creating new structures and delivery models while working within the current legislative constraints.
Through merger, acquisition of private firms and regional strategies, the stronger FE colleges have created efficiencies while preserving the local delivery of education (492 colleges in England at incorporation in 1992 are down to about 350). International experience in countries such as the Netherlands and Australia highlights a trend toward larger regional delivery units.
Nevertheless, the scale of the current and future budgetary challenge, coupled with the traditional merger route propped up by Learning and Skills Council funding being no longer available, means change is needed. This has prompted debate around the opportunities for the private sector to play a role in consolidation.
The need for a "level competitive playing field" to facilitate this has been cited by bodies such as the Confederation of British Industry (CBI) and through debates around private provision within the health sector. But both the public and private sectors face structural issues which distort competition.
FE colleges were incorporated under the Further and Higher Education Act 1992. A variety of collaborative structures have emerged within the sector to remain within the legislative guidelines. But a review is needed to consider alternative corporate and governance structures which strike a balance between assuring quality and local provision while not inhibiting the drive for efficiency and consolidation. The experience of publicprivate sector collaboration in the health sector and alternative school models such as academies should also be included in the debate.
Merger processes are lengthy, often with little effort made to quantify and track expected efficiency and operating savings post-transaction.
While leading FE colleges have made progress in accelerating merger timetables in their bid to consolidate, more updated guidance is needed, including the idea of the modern merger and its new rationale, which is not about "saving failing colleges".
A revised process with more focus on comprehensive acquisition or vendor due diligence at an early stage would help to shorten timescales. The barriers to entry and restructuring caused by current pension and tax arrangements are well documented, meaning either public or private provision can have an advantage, depending on the circumstances. We need an open debate to consider ways to overcome these barriers.
FE colleges are constrained in the level of external borrowing they can raise. The entry of well-capitalised private-sector influence could distort competition unless colleges are freed of unnecessary constraints.
A working group building on research from the CBI, KPMG and others is needed to help Government consider these issues. The aim should be to create a competitive environment in which the most efficient institutions in the public and private sectors can play a role in reshaping FE.

Ke$ha Talks 'Eyeball Sex' With Johnny Depp, Just Wants A Guy With A 'Big Penis'
Ke$ha's not quite done yet talking about her sex life just yet.
After infamously revealing she had a "dark, sexual" encounter with a ghost once, the raunchy songstress has gone on the record again to talk about another intimate experience — this time one involving actor Johnny Depp.
"Me and Johnny Depp had eyeball sex at the benefit concert for Superstorm Sandy in LA," the 26-year-old boasts to UK's Metro. "We never really talked – we just had eyeball sex."
However, Depp — who split with girlfriend Vanessa Paradis last June — isn't the only celeb Ke$ha is crushing on.
Previously, the singer has spoken about wanting to "make out" with The Hangover star Zach Galifianakis, telling The Morning Mash radio show, "He's amazing. I like big, fat guys with beards that wear thick glasses."
"Just because I'm a woman, it doesn't make me a drunk or a slut."
Do you think this is another one of Ke$ha's TMI moments? Sound off in the comments.

I know that some people want to continue playback when they switch to a different session. However, I do not believe that this should be the default. Maybe we will add support for this in a later version somehow, but I do believe the right approach is to make sure that inactive sessions cannot spy on the user who's active on the seat.Especially since the controls for the music playback are in the other session. The use case that I run into with F7 is: o Offspring #1 starts Battle For Wesnoth as his user. o Offspring #2 takes over the computer, switches to his own user, and wants to play some other game. For F7, the Wesnothy music keeps playing, and, to turn it off, the computer needs to switch back to Offspring #1's account, log in, and close his game. Then Offspring #2 can have sound. This sucks. I haven't installed F8 on The Offsprings computer yet, (I know, I know), but from what I understand, Pulseaudio should fix this very nicely.
And now for the opposite point of point of view... I find it very disturbing that if I have itunes on a mac playing a playlist with the output going to a receiver/speakers for the room, it is rudely interrupted if my wife wants to check her email.
It would be just as bad if I were playing music. If a song I really hate comes up, and I don't have Offspring #1's password, there's no way to skip it.
Errr, if you don't like a song, don't schedule it to be played.
Terrible. I really can't understand how anyone would want the default behavior to be different. When some users might want audio from one user to keep playing as logged into another user, it sounds like they have to do some manual tweaks. No big deal.
I can understand a system that has barely outgrown single-user concepts or something designed as a toy for kids that don't know enough to clean up after themselves making abrupt decisions based on guesswork about what you might sometimes want. I don't understand it as default behavior for a system that is otherwise elegant in multi-user, multi-tasking operation and doing what you tell it to do. If I want it to to stop playing music that I've started, I'll tell it to, thank you.

Modigliani, Amadeo
Students of Modigliani, Amadeo studies need not worry about paying for over-priced textbooks anymore – renting textbooks is an option! Modigliani, Amadeo textbooks – for example Modigliani: A Life by [Jeffrey Meyers], and Modigliani (World of Art Series) by [Carol Mann] – are often some of the most frequently updated books by Publishing companies. The field of Modigliani, Amadeo is constantly changing, and new editions can come yearly and at a huge cost to students who continually buy new books. So why buy when you can rent cheap textbooks? There are plenty of Modigliani, Amadeo books to rent – BookRenter has of them all!
Used book sales can be a cheap option as well, but often can be more expensive than textbook rentals. However, there are very few return policies with used books, and especially when taking Modigliani, Amadeo classes, buying a used book can be dangerous and costly.

I won 5000 euros on vortex casino (even more but I lost the rest of money...)
as their conditions says, I proceeded to withdraw but only 1000 by day and 2500 max a week, then I have been using 10 days to ask for those 5000 ! in the meanwhile i sent papers.
Accepted quite quickly and saying they would pay in a "very shor time" (find copy enclosed)
since then nothing - Vip manager told it takes 5 to 7 days, then 5 to 7 days after acceptation. It makes 8 days and now nobody answers on the chat... It seem to me that they were no complaints about Vortex so may be it is just bad luck, I hope it will soon be ok, thanks.
Dear @aspyquat,
Any update considering this complaint? Thank you.
Yes you can close it, even if they only paid part of it and were really "uncommercial".
Preferable to forget about Vortex on my point of view :)
Thanks a lot
Based on player's last comment, we consider this case as resolved and it is now officially closed.

Winter Gloves
The weather outside may be frightful, but you don't mind it at all – because you're ready to ride with your winter gloves. These winter gloves are no joke; they're lined with fleece, have all the durability of traditional riding gloves, and come with reinforced fingers to help you keep a grip on the reins. Better still the gloves aren't bulky, so you don't have to worry about losing your grip when you start to ride. After all, who wants to put the riding season on hold just because the temperatures are starting to dip?
Not One Stop Equine Shop, that's who. At One Stop Equine Shop, we're proud to offer active equestrians a range of winter gloves that can be used for a variety of reasons. From waterproof fleece winter gloves to riding gloves that could stand up to arctic weather – and everything in between – these riding gloves are designed to help you ride in the saddle during the colder autumn and winter seasons. When selecting your ideal pair of winter gloves, be sure to measure the palm. It's important to get the best fit possible, as bulky or ill-fitting gloves can decrease your grip in the reins.
While shopping for your winter gloves, you'll come across familiar brands, including Noble Outfitters, Kerrits, Heritage Gloves, Tredstep Ireland, and much more. Be sure to look at each brand's size guide before ordering to determine your ideal fit for winter gloves.

A slow start and poor passing perofmrance from Luke McCown has hampered the Jacksonville Jaguars' chances of upsetting the New York Jets on the road. Jacksonville has played from behind the entire game and heads into halftime trailing 15-3 thanks to an anemic offense that compiled just 97 yards.
The Jets were able to get going early. Mark Sanchez led New York down the field on the team's opening drive and found Santonio Holmes in between two Jacksonville defenders for 17-yard score.
Trailing 7-0, the Jaguars dug themselves into a deeper hole on their first offensive possession. Backed up deep in Jacksonville's territory, Luke McCown was unable to find an open receiver and was taken down for a safety by New York rookie defensive end Muhammad Wilkerson. That play occurred 64 seconds after New York's touchdown. Wilkerson got instantaneous pressure on a three-man pass rush and was able to give the Jets a 9-0 lead less than five minutes into the first quarter.
Will Middleton was able to intercept an errant Mark Sanchez throw on the following series and prevented things from getting too out of hand. Both teams traded stalled drives until the Jaguars were able to capitalize on fair catch interference. Jacksonville took over on its own 44 yard-line and was able to get into New York territory following a 16-yard run from Maurice Jones-Drew.
The Jaguars had to settle for a 55-yard field goal and Josh Scobee was able to continue his excellent start to the season by just squeaking the kick through the uprights to put the Jaguars on the board, with New York leading 9-3.
New York opened up the second quarter with a 38-yard field goal from Nick Folk to increase the lead to 12-3.
Rashean Mathis picked off Mark Sanchez, giving The Sanchize his second interception of the half but the Jaguars could not capitalize on that opportunity either. Jacksonville moved the ball into New York territory only to have McCown sail a pass over the head of Mike Thomas and into Antonio
Cromartie's outstretched hands.
McCown's day only got worse. Running a two-minute drill, McCown panicked and flung a pass to defensive end Aaron Smith right over the middle of the field. He was able to haul it in and give New York the ball at Jacksonville's 30 yard-line with a minute left in the half.
New York was able to capitalize with a 45-yard field goal from Folk, putting the Jets up 15-3 right before halftime.Tags: Football, Jacksonville, Jacksonville Jaguars, Josh Scobee, Luke McCown, Mark Sanchez, Maurice-Jones Drew, New York Jets, NFL

The 2008 Honda Pilot is a powerful, responsive, good-handling SUV crossover with a pleasant ride and solid fuel efficiency.
The Honda Pilot's standard engine is a 244-horsepower 3.5-liter V-6 engine, teamed with a five-speed automatic. This is a sweet V-6 whose VTEC variable valve timing system works elegantly, and it's wed to a delectable and poised five-speed automatic. Car and Driver likes the Honda's "strong acceleration for its class" and calls the powertrain "slick," while Cars.com says, "Performance is strong and confident, if not exactly blistering. Response is quick, easy and seamless from the engine and automatic transmission." Edmunds labels it "strong yet efficient."
In 2WD Pilots, the engine employs Variable Cylinder Management to disable three cylinders in low-load situations, such as cruising or slowing, to conserve fuel. The engine is designed to run on cheaper, regular-grade gasoline. The EPA says the Pilot gets 16/22 mpg with front-wheel drive, and 15/20 mpg with all-wheel drive.
In the four-wheel-drive models of the 2008 Pilot, Honda uses what it calls Variable Torque Management (VTM-4) to send power to the rear wheels as needed. Though it does not have a two-speed transfer case, it does feature a locking mechanism to keep all four wheels powered, useful when in deep snow or on a boat ramp. Although the Honda Pilot is a unibody crossover (unlike a truck-based SUV), it is rated to tow up to a 4,500-pound boat trailer, "about 1,000 pounds greater than many crossover rivals, but well below the ratings for traditional truck-based SUVs like the Ford Explorer or Dodge Durango," Edmunds adds.
Since it's a front-driver in most situations, the 2008 Honda Pilot behaves like a front-driver in most situations; the nose will plow in corners, and the cornering limits themselves are modest. The steering feels a bit numb, but it isn't imprecise. The 2008 Pilot sports a fully independent rear suspension that Kelley Blue Book says "delivers an impressively smooth ride and agile handling." Car and Driver praises its "carlike handling." ConsumerGuide Auto feels that the 2008 Pilot's handling is "strong and stable" except for "copious nosedive," but it "never loses its composure." Cars.com remarks "it seems a trifle uncertain through some demanding turns." However, Mother Proof's resident mom considers the Pilot's ride "smooth and comfortable, and the handling gives a feeling of security," and Car and Driver calls its steering "accurate."

Mount Dora Patriot Cruise and Salute, November 6th, 2016
The Patriot Cruise and Salute in Mount Dora is an organization that treats wounded veterans and their families to an outing on Lake Dora & the Dora Canal followed by a picnic lunch and patriotic program at Gilbert Park. It is a way to say "thank you" for their service and sacrifice. Having heard about the event last year I contacted Rozann Abato and Carroll Jaskulski who are the local organizers and asked to participate, so this year we have donated one of our boats for the event. It will be Captained by Randy Messineo a veteran himself who has volunteered his time for the event, and crewed by myself (Tudor).
This year's event will be held on Sunday, November 6, 2016 at Gilbert Park in Mount Dora. The public is invited to come to the boat docks at Grantham Point Park at 12:00 PM to welcome the veterans back to shore. Bring an American flag to wave and show your respect and gratitude!!

Randy Moss To Vikings
October 6, 2010 by staff
Randy Moss To Vikings, Day after Moss had a knot in one game for the first time since the 2006 season rumors that the receiver is on the trading block and may be headed for Minnesota.
The Patriots and the Vikings have been in trade talks for a while, and as of last night were close to a deal if Moss and the Vikings will agree on a contract extension, Jay Glazer of Fox Sports said in "Planet Show WEEI Mikey"última night.
A Patriots official replied simply: "No trade."Efforts to reach Moss agent, Joel Segal, were unsuccessful.
The Vikings and Moss have to talk about a contract extension, but last night, ESPN cited sources as saying that trade would be completed today.
Segarra asked the Patriots for a Moss trade name after the week of New England a victory over Cincinnati, the Herald. After that game, Moss, 33, broke his silence over the summer with a passionate press conference, but he misses in which he expressed his desire to remain with the team and their willingness to leave the organization is not achieved new contract before the end of this season.
Moss addressed many issues in the press conference, including his contract.
"If you do a good job… You want to be appreciated. I do not think, personally, I'm appreciated,"he said that day." I want you all know, I want the fans – the true fans – the Patriots New England, I know I'm not here to start no trouble. I'll play my last year on my contract, and as I said over and over again since I signed my first contract here, I want to be here in New England. It is a great group of guys here, a well trained here, and I never said I wanted to leave New England.
"But I think, from a commercial standpoint, this will probably be my last year here as a patriot. And I do not recall, I'm going to play football."
Glazer said he believed that trade was the result of the Patriots have a problem with Moss, but rather an opportunity for them to get something to the receiver, as he is in the final year of his contract.
Moss has not received permission from the Patriots to negotiate with another team, according to the NFL Network, but a deal could be done without, though.
The Vikings (1-2) are in desperate need of a big-play threat with star receiver Sidney Rice out for at least the first half of the season due to offseason hip surgery.
Another Vikings game machine, receiver Percy Harvin, was plagued with migraines during training camp. He has 12 receptions, 106 yards and a touchdown in three games this season, but Harvin does not extend the field like Moss, who has just nine catches in four games, but has 139 yards and three touchdowns, the kind of home run hitter quarterback Brett Favre has been asking for.
The Vikings tried to acquire the receiver Vincent Jackson Chargers two weeks ago, but could not reach an agreement with San Diego.
If one goes by the trade, Moss would return to the team that drafted him in the first round of the Marshall in 1998. It would also create a very interesting match Oct. 31, when the Vikings come to Gillette Stadium.
On Monday night, Moss was often in the field, but quarterback Tom Brady looked so once, in a false peak at the end of June. The pass was from hand to Moss in the end zone.
Moss rejuvenated his career with the Patriots when he arrived via a trade with the Raiders in 2007. Signed for three years and 27 million contracts at the end of the '07 season ends after this season. In the offseason, Moss fired his agent life, Tim DiPiero, and signed with Segal.

"Wonderful compassionate care"
About: Stoke Mandeville Hospital Stoke Mandeville Hospital Aylesbury HP21 8AL
Posted by Anonymous
Anything else?
My elderly dad recently had a 2 week stay and was very sick. At one stage we thought that maybe he wouldn't make it. All of the staff gave wonderful compassionate care, treating him thoughtfully as a person even though often he wasn't lucid. The staff were also considerate of us, the relatives. Thankfully he is recovering. Thank you Mandeville, all of your staff are amazing.
Response from Stoke Mandeville Hospital 3 years ago
Thank you for taking the time to comment. We are really pleased to hear that your dad is recovering well, and that you were all treated considerately and compassionately during your time at the hospital. We will make sure this is fed back to the staff, who will really appreciate your feedback. Best wishes Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust

Current Swell riding a wave of popularity
St. Albert's David Lang living his musical dream via Victoria indie-rock band
Wednesday, May 07, 2014 06:00 am
Current Swell
You know you�ve reached a certain level of success in the music business when you step on stage in a foreign country and are greeted by a throng of 3,000 people who already know all the words to your songs.
That was the experience of David Lang and his bandmates from Current Swell when they were on tour in Brazil.
�There was like this feeling, looking out at 3,000 people. We were so stoked,� says Lang.
The vocalist/guitarist got his start in St. Albert, learning his first chords during his Grade 11 year at Paul Kane High School. Years later, after he�d moved to Victoria, he hooked up with fellow St. Albertan Scott Stanton and Current Swell was born.
The foursome has been gaining scores of international fans after touring North America and headlining shows in Brazil, Australia and Europe.
Serving as an opening act for prominent artists like Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros, Xavier Rudd, K�Naan, The Tragically Hip and The Beach Boys has helped the band gain exposure.
This steady climb hasn�t been without memorable experiences and lessons learned.
Lang tells of a time when the band was touring with The Beach Boys when, after a sound check, they were approached by someone they thought was a fan.
�Scott asked if he was a janitor or something � and the guy responded, �I�m actually in The Beach Boys,�� recalls Lang with a laugh.
�We tried to save Scott but he had dug himself a hole.�
These types of experiences are humbling for the band, in the face of releasing a fifth album, entitled Ulysses, a milestone the members had only dreamed of reaching.
The album�s first single, Rollin, stays true to its name and features a bass tempo that quite literally rolls the listener through the song. The accompanying video was created with the goal of sparking a viral response online. The video features a throwback to an authentic �80s aerobics video. The band members, clad in ballet singlets, are digitally imposed onto the screen.
�It was the most fun we�ve had on a music video shoot,� laughs Lang.
Having released a new album, garnering airplay on some of the country�s biggest radio stations and having performed with some of the biggest names in the business, the question remains: when will Current Swell feel like it has �made it� in this industry?
�You just set your sights higher and higher,� Lang says. �I�m smack in the middle of my wildest dream. If that�s not getting close to it, I don�t know what is.�

States funding refusal puts Darts Festival in doubt
DARTS fans in the Island may have seen the last of the Jersey Darts Festival.
Unless a sponsor can be found in the coming days, promoter Howard Miller will cancel the professional British Darts Organisation event – just four years after its resurrection.
Coupled with increased charges at its current venue at the Royal Hotel, Miller's application for financial support from the Tourism Development Fund has been rejected.
Miller said: 'The JDO and I are gutted that we are being forced into this decision [to cancel], after all the work we have put in to make this one of the most popular festivals on the calendar.
'In refusing our application it was also cited [by the TDF panel] there was no formal business plan accompanying the application. While that was true, we did have four years of successful festivals to quote, not to mention 26 years of other sporting events.'
Economic Development Minister Lyndon Farnham has since clarified the Fund's position: 'It's a sensible but strict set of criteria because it is public money, after all.
'After a submission has been made it goes to the Development Fund board, who consider its merit and whether it's in line with the aims and objectives of the fund.'

Pesticides Diabetes
August 18, 2011 by staff
Pesticides Diabetes, An increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes has been found to be associated with certain pesticides, according to a new study. According to Reuters, those with relatively high levels of pesticides in the blood are more likely to develop the disease, especially if they are overweight.
The news agency said the new study by the Finnish National Institute for Health and Social Welfare is not the first to make the connection between diabetes and chemical contaminants. Several previous studies have found the risk associated with diabetes and exposure to older pesticides.
Called "persistent organic pollutants", organochlorine pesticides, including PCBs and risk. Organochlorines were banned and restricted in the U.S. and other developed countries after the research related to health risks such as cancer. Similarly, PCBs, once used in fluorescent lighting and insecticides were banned in the 1970s.
However, Reuters reported that these persistent organic pollutants in the environment might remain for years after they are gone; it accumulates in animal and human body fat.
The Finnish study also demonstrated the link between diabetes and pesticides by measuring levels of various POPs in the 2,000 older adults. More than 15 percent had type 2 diabetes and the risk was greater among those with the highest levels of organochlorine pesticides. In these people, the risk of diabetes is twice that for people in 10 percent of the levels of pesticides.
The problem was compounded in people who were overweight or obese, leading researchers to believe that contaminants and body fat "can have a synergistic effect on the risk of type 2 diabetes."
Reuters said that although the study does not establish direct cause pesticides for the development of diabetes, there appears to be a cause-effect relationship between the two.

Bruce eyes Austrian
By Alex Livie
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Birmingham boss Steve Bruce has set his sights on Austrian Paul Scharner.Birmingham boss Steve Bruce has set his sights on strengthening his defensive options with the capture of Austrian international Paul Scharner.
The 25-year-old caught Bruce's eye when producing a starring display for Brann Bergen during a pre-season friendly between the two sides this summer.
Bruce is aware of the need to bring in fresh defensive options and has opened talks with Brann with regard to a January transfer.
"We are definitely looking at Scharner," said Bruce. "He is a fantastic player.
''We are trying to negotiate but, at the moment, that hasn't been easy.
"With Kenny Cunningham out of contract in the summer - and he will make his own mind up about what he wants to do - we need to address that part of the team.
"I'm keen on bringing in a few players. I'm looking at two or three and hopefully we will be bringing players in during the transfer window."
Bruce is also looking to ensure he retains the services of Matthew Upson by thrashing out a new deal with the former Arsenal stopper.
Upson is tied to Blues until the summer of 2008, but Bruce is keen to hand him a longer contract.
"We tried to speak to Matthew in the summer about a new contract," revealed Bruce. "We've got him for this year and another two years so there isn't an initial hurry.
"Obviously, with someone like him, you would like to tie him down for the next four or five years if we could and I'll have that conversation again.
"But I think we are all in the real world now and we understand what this Bosman situations means. We've got to accept that players can keep their options open and they've got every right to do that.
"In an ideal world I'd love to tie him - and Mario Melchiot - up on long-term deals because players of their quality don't come around very often."

The Veterinary Center for Integrative Medicine (VCIM) offers holistic pet treatment services. We are located in North Palm Beach, Florida.
Holistic pet treatment services include veterinary acupuncture, veterinary message therapy, herbal supplements for pets and more.
Western veterinary medicine is excellent for treating many cat and dog health issues, but sometimes it does not work as well as we want. Some pets with arthritis, intestinal diseases, epilepsy, nerve damage, cancer and other chronic conditions may not respond well to conventional, Western treatment. The side effects of modern medicines may cause even more problems. Many times, these difficult ailments can be managed effectively with Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM), also called pet acupuncture or veterinary acupuncture, with virtually few side effects.
Our modern society often is oriented to a "quick fix". TCVM sometimes takes a little bit longer to be effective, but with much less risk of unpleasant side effects. Western Medicine and TCVM have different approaches medically, but together they can be used to complement one another. This concept is known as Integrative Medicine.
For holistic pet treatment, herbal medication for pets, and veterinary acupuncture and massage therapy, please make an appointment with us today.
Serving Lake Park, North Palm Beach, West Palm Beach, Jupiter, Juno Beach, Palm Beach Gardens and the surrounding communities.
Traditional Chinese Medicine theory holds that Qi (vital energy) flows throughout the body along energetic channels called meridians. Each meridian is also associated with a specific internal organ which reflects the physiological and pathological conditions of that organ. The meridians connect the exterior of the body with the interior.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has been used in China for over 2000 years to maintain health in humans and animals. TCM includes herbs, acupuncture and massage. Herbal therapy and acupuncture are typically used together, as the combined effect is greater than using one of them alone.
Tui-Na also known as An-mo, is one of the 5 branches of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
It is a manual therapy that is an integral part of Traditional Chinese Medicine and uses Chinese medical theory as the basis for its application and actions.

Mardaani actor Tahir Raj Bhasin the '12th man of the Under-19 team' (as Rani Mukerji referred to him in the film) is suddenly the most valuable player of the season.
Tahir Raj Bhasin
The cold-blooded smooth-talking anti-hero of Mardaani will next be seen playing a good guy in Kushan Nandy's upcoming action thriller, Babumoshai Bandookbaaz which stars Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Chitrangda Singh.
