Evangeline: Bayouland Futurity
The $36,000 Bayouland Sales Futurity at five furlongs, the second of Evangeline Downs's three stakes for 2-year-olds, looks to be a classic shootout between the two qualifying trial winners, Courvoisier and Doeny Rain.
Undefeated Hail to Bag, winner of last month's first leg, the D. S. "Shine" Futurity, is not eligible because this race is restricted to horses purchased in the Louisiana Thoroughbred Breeders' Association Sale.
Courvoisier, trained by Dale Angelle, ran his record to two wins in as many starts in the first trial on July 18. Brian Hernandez put Courvoisier just behind the early leaders before challenging turning for home. Hernandez kept Courvoisier's mind on his business and they prevailed by 1 1/2 lengths in a 1:01.20 for the five furlongs. Hernandez has the return call at 120 pounds.
Doeny Rain's trial win came in much more impressive fashion as he drew out to win by over seven lengths after prompting the early pace. The win was his first in five starts and came on the heels of a fourth-place finish in the Shine Futurity. He covered the distance in a quick 59.20 seconds and has been installed as the 3-1 morning line favorite in the final.
Trainer Doris Hebert, who also has Hail to Bag, will once again give the mount to Kevin Melancon.

- Summary
Stars Academy Award-winner Forest Whitaker in a drama about an elite team of agents within the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit who use unconventional methods of investigation and aggressive tactics to capture the nation's most nefarious criminals. Unit chief Special Agent Sam Cooper (Whitaker) is a mentally and physically fierce natural leader who is not afraid to put his career on the line in order to stand by his convictions. Cooper strives to avoid political bureaucracy and has handpicked an eclectic group of profilers to work outside the confines of Quantico: Former British Special Forces soldier Mick Rawson (Matt Ryan), confident and handsome, works as a highly-skilled marksman with an undiluted eye for rooting out evil; John "Prophet" Sims (Michael Kelly), a former convict with a street-smart edge and a calm, Zen-like presence, who is determined to make amends for past sins; and Gina LaSalle (Beau Garrett), an attractive, tough agent armed with a cunning sense of perception. This exceptional group of FBI operatives is strong in their beliefs and steadfast in their mission to bring the country's most dangerous criminals to justice.

"Care kindness and support for my dad"
About: Hairmyres Hospital / Trauma & orthopaedics Hairmyres Hospital Trauma & orthopaedics G75 8RG
Posted by Sorrento (as ),
My dad was admitted for a knee operation but sadly developed complications and passed away after 8 weeks in Hairmyres. The main thing was the standard of care, kindness and support provided by the nursing staff in Ward 1 and HDU within Ward 12. Also the consultant and doctors tried everything within their power to cure him. They could not have done more for my dad. Their level of expertise, professionalism and warmth was superb. Also at the time of his death they were extremely supportive and this made it bearable.
Response from Susan Friel, Chief of Nursing Services, Hairmyres Hospital, NHS Lanarkshire 2 years ago
Dear Sorrento
I'm so sorry that you lost your dad; this must be a very hard Christmas for you. Please accept my sincere condolences at this difficult time.
Thank you for your comments above on the care your dad and you experienced. I'm so pleased you felt supported and that you were happy with the clinical care your dad received. I promise I will make sure that your thanks are passed on to the staff involved in your dad's care.
All the best for 2015

UK Blog Awards 2015 – submission from Adam Clarke, www.ldnlife.com (nominated for Best Company/Organisation Food and Drink Blog: http://www.blogawardsuk.co.uk/candidates/ldn-life/).
Twitter: @LDNlife
The theme for UK Blog Awards 2015 is Be Bold, however this is my bloggers story about how I started to Be Bold back in 2013.
Well it's been about a year since I signed up the then London Life UK blog to the UK Blog Awards 2014 with mere seconds to go before the deadline. I wasn't particularly confident and not really happy with the name either in truth. My Blogging journey had all started about 7ish months earlier, after years in writing never land. You see I wanted a hobby and I loved writing for the Student Newspaper in my Uni days, so it made sense. Finally I'd happened upon a name that worked for me at that moment in time. Gone were the previous ideas of the likes of Social Beans and even Digital Bread Bin (I'd been drinking) Hazzar! The plan to find a name so generic I could work out what it would be later was a success; the time for prolonged procrastination was over and it was time to get writing.
As time went on I wrote more and more about food and drink, I couldn't escape it and I loved it, I met passionate people in their kitchens, at Pop Ups and other events. I started to meet others who liked to write about food, mainly via twitter and some started to guest post on the site. So when I came across the UK Blog Awards it was an easy decision to pick the food and drink category, but not so easy to press that button.
Little did I know that pressing the 'Submit' button would start a sea of change, not only how I viewed my blog but also what I could do with it. Until I pressed that button the idea of being a blogger didn't sit that well with me. I wrote stuff sure but was I a blogger? The answer was of course yes but it wasn't until the awards night that I truly embraced it. At the awards and before that near winning moment I'd mainly cut a lonely figure, I was just taking it all in. aside from a minor cameo as a photographer/selfie enabler in the foyer and chatting to a group of guys in kilts. For some strange reason I'd built the whole thing up as a journey that I felt only I could go on.
But then it happened London Life UK had been 'Highly Commended' for Food and Drink along with the Mighty Yorkshire Pudd. At that point there was no going back I was a Blogger and now I was going to say it loud and proud. But don't get me wrong, I never thought being a Blogger was a dirty word, but I just wanted to write, write about London Life as I saw it when I saw it, what was in a label anyway?
Speeding forward 6 months and a large part of my spare time has been spent doing things that have evolved London Life UK into LDN Life, which I hope you'll agree is a much cooler name, getting a much cooler logo thanks to a great designer and fellow blogger, changing hosting providers, working out how to do a 301 redirect, looking at how to make money from it and buying and discarding a lot of Wordpress themes and plugins, I could write blogs just about these experiences. While also trying to grow the group of people who write for LDN Life, to the point where I feel I've become a bit of a LDN Life bloggers agent. I've also had several failed attempts at growing a beard; I will never be a Hipster, Amish of anything else that requires a beard, but I have grown much more comfortable in my London skin, I'm happy with who I am in this city and happy with my blog. I now have the confidence to push on and do it.
Oh and it turns out blogging is actually quite different from writing, especially when you're in charge of all of it. Editor check, designer check(ish), agent check, coordinator check, PR check, Social Media expert check, advertising manager (still working on that)
The blog now has a Food and Drink Editor and more recently a Music Editor and Arts and Culture Editor and about 8 other people who blog as and when they can. All of them do it for the love of London and the occasional freebie. But the focus is very much still about food and drink, it's still in my opinion what makes London (LDN) Life go round, the rest is icing on the bespoke artisan hipster popup cupcake.
My tips:
1) A theme/category to specialise in helps but don't let it stop you if you're not sure. Chances are you'll find your niche as you go along, once you do don't be afraid to rename or start again
2) Start small but be bold, don't be afraid to ask for things the worst they say is no
3) Don't be desperate for visitors and don't spam your friends.
4) Don't be a snob, unless your blog is about being a snob
5) Be you, even if your blog starts to make money, don't become a sales machine for the man. You'll lose the reason people read your blog in the first place and that would be sad.

Swansea star Ashley Williams is relishing the challenge of keeping Robin van Persie and Thierry Henry quiet this weekend when Arsenal arrive at the Liberty Stadium.
Van Persie and Henry could link up for the first time against the Swans after the legendary Frenchman made his sensational return to the Emirates on loan from New York Red Bulls.
Henry announced his return to Arsenal in style when he came off the bench to score the winner in the FA Cup third round tie with Leeds, while Van Persie is set to return to the side after being allowed to miss Monday's clash.
Swansea boast the best joint defensive record at home, having conceded just four goals in front of their own fans and they have only lost one game on their own patch.
That record will be facing a severe test against Van Persie, Henry and co, but Williams is confident Swansea can maintain their fine home form.
"Van Persie is one of the best strikers in the league and he has been brilliant for them this season," Williams told skysports.com.
"Then there is Henry and he showed the other night he is still the main man.
"He is a legend at Arsenal and if you ask people he is arguably the best player ever to play in the Premier League.
"Hopefully Henry will play in the game as it will be a massive challenge and you want to match yourself against the best players."
Williams insists Swansea will show no fear against Arsenal after running them clse at the Emirates earlier in the campaign.
"It will be a massive game against Arsenal and we are confident we can get a positive result," he added.
"We played well against them at the Emirates and probably deserved a draw, but our goalkeeper made a mistake and they managed to win 1-0.
"We are at home and we have been very strong at home and we want to continue that.
"We have been strong defensively as a unit and our keeper [Michel Vorm] has been unbelievable, probably the best in the league.
"We have made a big effort defensively and if you defend well you have a solid base from where you can let your attacking players try and make things happen at the other end of the pitch."
Wales international Williams has racked up some impressive statistics in his first season in the Premier League with 27-year-old making more passes than any other top-flight defender and also topping the table for blocking the most shots.
Williams admits it is nice to have his harrd work highlighted, but he is not paying too much attention to the statistics.
"It is nice to have good stats as it means you are doing things right," added Williams.
"In the modern game statistics are used a lot and I am sure the gaffer studies them and is happy with them."

More Consumers Brown-Bagging Lunch: NPD
Fruit, chips, and sandwiches top carried-from-home lunches, which are becoming a preferred choice for cost-cutting consumers.
:The brown-bagged lunch is becoming an increasingly popular workplace accessory these days, according to a new study from market research firm the NPD Group. Indeed, weekday lunches toted from home reached a new high in 2007 among adults 18 and older, 8.5 billion of which carried brown-bag lunches last year. More than half of these lunches are consumed at the workplace, and most often at the eater's desk or workstation.
Among the findings revealed in NPD's new report - "What's in the Bag and Why Is It in There?" -- the majority of consumers carry their lunch from home more often due to financial reasons, mostly because it's cheaper than other options. Health and nutrition concerns ranked second as a reason to brown-bag, followed by convenience, taste, diet, quality, and environmental concerns. Among consumers who typically brown-bag, nearly half said they're doing so more often.
"Consumers are definitely in a cost-cutting mode, and brown-bagging saves them money," noted NPD v.p. Harry Balzer. "Making lunch at home and putting it in a bag also enables them to have full control over what goes into the bag, as many are concerned about eating better."
The NPD study finds that adult males carry more brown-bagged lunches than others, yet quite often females are the preparers. Brown-bagging is more common among 35- to 54-year-olds, white-collar consumers and professionals, as well as more affluent consumers.
What goes in the brown bags varies, but it typically consists of fruit, chips, and some type of sandwich. Cookies replace the chips in kids' lunches, a poultry sandwich replaces chips for men, and women are more inclined to opt for healthier choices like yogurt and veggies. Among the total population, peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwiches are the most popular sandwich type, and carbonated soft drinks are the dominant beverage choice.
"We're seeing yogurt and frozen entrees gaining in popularity in carried lunches, and lunchmeat sandwiches, chips, or ham sandwiches declining," says Arnie Schwartz, who heads up NPD's food and beverage unit. "Over the last several years, leftovers are increasingly a part of brown-bagged lunches."
Further, the report contends brown-bagging is a planned behavior, with nearly half of consumers deciding they want to brown-bag the day before or earlier, with another two out of three brown-bagged lunches prepared the morning of the same day.
"Brown-bagging is an extension of Americans now preparing and eating the majority of their meals at home," observed Balzer. "Home is not only where the heart is, it's where the food is, too."

Artists in Action #768
Sammy Davis, Jr. looks down
|your thoughts:
5 comments:
- John said...
I wonder what Sammy Davis would be doing if he were a young artist today. The guy could sing, dance, act, play multiple musical instruments. He evn did impressions - some of them not half bad. What is the current outlet for that particular "skill set" of talent? What sort of music would he actually be singing today? Hip-hop? Can't picture it somehow. What does a male dancer do with that piece of talent today? Other than hustle for work in various chorus lines and other such things? Maybe he'd just be a Vegas lounge act, virtually indistinguishable from the Sammy Davis Jr. of the 50's and 60's. I'm guessing he'd be a huge star, with one of the Vegas Strip casinos building a dedicated theater for his performances, paying him a few hundred grand a week to do 8 or 9 90-minute shows a week, running around the stage like a banshee. But it's sort of a singular talent set - not easily translatable to some other venue or stage setting.

Good question, John. Perhaps people would be creating vehicles for Sammy and his talents. Another maybe: if Michael Jackson had been a little more stable in the psychology, he could have been what Sammy could have been if not for the racial barriers he faced.
Don't forget another of Sammy's talents: he was a great quick draw artist.

Sammy Davis Jr. was also a photographer and took many backstage shots. Some of them were pretty good but mostly it was the famous subjects that were the highlights of his stuff, as is and was the case with many celebrity / photographers it was the access to the backstage scenarios that was the attraction.

being so versatile and adaptible, I'm sure he would have found a way to suit his talent to these times

Why economists see a stronger second half for 2011
WASHINGTON (AP) _ Farewell and good riddance to the first half of 2011 _ six months that are ending as sour for the economy as they began.
Most analysts say economic growth will perk up in the second half of the year. The reason is that the main causes of the slowdown _ high oil prices and manufacturing delays because of the disaster in Japan _ have started to fade.
For an economy barely inching ahead two years after the Great Recession ended, the first half of 2011 can't end soon enough. Severe storms and rising gasoline prices held growth in January, February and March to a glacial annual rate of 1.9 percent.
The current quarter isn't shaping up much better. The average growth forecast of 38 top economists surveyed by The Associated Press is 2.3 percent.
High court to rule on FCC indecency policy
WASHINGTON (AP) _ The Supreme Court will take up the First Amendment fight over what broadcasters can put on the airwaves when young children may be watching television.
The justices said Monday they will review appeals court rulings that threw out the Federal Communications Commission's rules against the isolated use of expletives as well as fines against broadcasters who showed a woman's nude buttocks on a 2003 episode of ABC's "NYPD Blue."
The Obama administration objected that the appeals court stripped the FCC of its ability to police the airwaves.
The U.S. television networks argue that the policy is outdated, applying only to broadcast television and leaving unregulated the same content if transmitted on cable TV or over the Internet.
In a landmark 1978 decision, the court upheld the FCC's authority to regulate both radio and television content, at least during the hours when children are likely to be watching or listening. That period includes the prime-time hours before 10 p.m.
Can't ban violent video sales to kids, court says
WASHINGTON (AP) _ States cannot ban the sale or rental of ultraviolent video games to children, the Supreme Court ruled Monday, rejecting such limits as a violation of young people's First Amendment rights and leaving it up to parents and the multibillion-dollar gaming industry to decide what kids can buy.
The high court, on a 7-2 vote, threw out California's 2005 law covering games sold or rented to those under 18, calling it an unconstitutional violation of free-speech rights. Writing for the majority, Justice Antonin Scalia, said, "Even where the protection of children is the object, the constitutional limits on governmental action apply."
Scalia, who pointed out the violence in a number of children's fairy tales, said that while states have legitimate power to protect children from harm, "that does not include a free-floating power to restrict the ideas to which children may be exposed."
Los Angeles Dodgers file for bankruptcy protection
LOS ANGELES (AP) _ Facing the painful prospect of stiffing players and employees, the Los Angeles Dodgers filed for bankruptcy protection in a Delaware court Monday, adding to off-the-field troubles that have hobbled one of baseball's most storied franchises and setting up another showdown with Major League Baseball.
Team owner Frank McCourt, upset that baseball Commissioner Bud Selig rejected a multibillion-dollar TV deal last week, now hopes a federal judge will approve $150 million in financing to be used for daily operations and give him more time to seek a more favorable media contract. A hearing is set for Tuesday.
The move by a cash-starved McCourt comes just days before he was expected to miss team payroll Thursday and possibly be confronted with an MLB takeover. The filing also means it's unlikely a resolution over team ownership, a fight that began two years ago when McCourt and his ex-wife and former team CEO Jamie McCourt decided to divorce, will be found any time soon.
Consumer spending in May weakest in a year
WASHINGTON (AP) _ For the first time in a year, Americans have stopped spending more.
Consumer spending failed to budge from April to May, evidence that high gas prices and unemployment are squeezing household budgets. When adjusted for inflation, spending actually dropped 0.1 percent last month, the Commerce Department reported Monday.
April's consumer spending figures were revised to show a similar decline when adjusting for inflation. It marked the first two-month decline in inflation-adjusted spending since April 2009.
Incomes rose 0.3 percent for the second straight month. But adjusted for inflation, after-tax incomes increased only 0.1 percent in May, after falling by the same amount in the previous month.
White House: `Significant' deal on debt possible
WASHINGTON (AP) _ President Barack Obama plunged into deadlocked negotiations to cut government deficits and raise the nation's debt limit as the White House expressed confidence Monday that a "significant" deal with Republicans can be reached. But both sides only seemed to harden their positions as the day wore on, with the White House insisting on some higher taxes as part of the package and the Republican leadership flatly refusing to consider them.
Obama and Vice President Joe Biden met with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., for about 30 minutes at the White House, a straightforward session that only set the stage for an evening meeting of Obama, Biden and Republican Sen. Mitch McConnell.
White House spokesman Jay Carney said Obama reported out of the morning session that "everyone in the room believes that a significant deal remains possible." But Carney affirmed that Obama will only go for a deficit-reduction plan that includes both spending cuts and increased tax revenue, a so-called balanced approach that Republicans say would never get through Congress based on the tax hikes.
Nike's 4th-quarter profit jumps 14 percent, shares soar
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) _ Nike Inc.'s fourth-quarter net profit rose 14 percent to beat expectations as the company's sales improved around the globe.
The world's largest athletic shoe company reported Monday that it earned $594 million, or $1.24 per share, for the quarter. That's up from the $522 million, or $1.06 per share, it earned in the same quarter last year.
Nike's revenue rose 14 percent to $5.77 billion
The results handily beat the $1.16 per share on revenue of $5.53 billion that analysts polled by FactSet were anticipating. The news sent shares of the company soaring in after-hours trading.
Fitch downgrades Best Buy credit rating
NEW YORK (AP) _ Fitch Ratings on Monday cut its long-term default rating on electronics retailer Best Buy Co. by two notches to the lowest investment-grade rating. The agency cited weak sales trends at established stores, tough competition and a battle for market share as more shoppers buy electronics online or at discount retailers.
Fitch also noted that Best Buy is facing a consumer pressured by high unemployment and housing costs and rising gas prices. The agency lowered the rating to "BBB-" from "BBB+" with a stable outlook. As of May 28, Best Buy had $2.1 billion of debt outstanding.
By The Associated Press(equals)
Signs that a widespread European debt crisis could be averted helped send stocks up Monday.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose 108.98 points, or 0.9 percent, to close at 12,043.56. The Standard & Poor's 500 index rose 11.65, or 0.9 percent, to 1,280.10. The Nasdaq composite index rose 35.39, or 1.3 percent, to 2,688.28.
Benchmark oil for August delivery fell 55 cents to settle at $90.61 on the New York Mercantile Exchange. In London, Brent crude for August delivery rose 87 cents to $105.99 a barrel on the ICE Futures exchange.
In other Nymex trading in July contracts, heating oil rose 1.25 cents to $2.7814 a gallon while gasoline rose 2.85 cents to $2.7444 a gallon. Natural gas futures rose 2.7 cents to $4.256 per 1,000 cubic feet.

Rich countries such as Australia cannot protect themselves from the Ebola virus by retreating behind their borders, an Australian microbiologist has argued in an international medical journal.
Writing in the journal Nature, University of Western Australia medical microbiologist Tim Inglis says irrational fear of the lethal virus ishampering Australia's ability to make a greater contribution to international efforts to combat the outbreak in west Africa.
The Abbott government is under pressure from Labor, the Greens, aid agencies and health groups to send personnel to Africa to back its financial contribution of $18 million. Prime Minister Tony Abbott has also said Australia is considering requests from the United States and Britain for personnel, made three weeks ago, but is continuing to seek assurances that any Australian workers who might contract the virus in west Africa would receive adequate treatment.
Immigration Minister Scott Morrison announced on Monday that Australia had suspended its immigration program, including its humanitarian intake, from Ebola-affected countries, including Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea.
This followed a suspected case of Ebola in an 18-year-old west African woman who arrived in Queensland under a humanitarian program this month. The woman tested negative for Ebola.
Australian Medical Association president Brian Owler described the decision to close the border as "short-sighted".
"The best evidence is that that's not the best way to control the disease. People need to understand that even in Liberia and Sierra Leone, there are precautions that are already in place. You can't get on a flight out of Monrovia or out of Freetown without having your temperature taken about four times ... you cannot leave those countries if you are showing any sign of the disease, or people feel that you are at risk, so closing the borders of those countries is not the answer."
Writing in Nature, Professor Inglis says the current threat to Australia from a few imported cases of Ebola is low.
"The real issue is that the threat to Australia, the US and other developed countries will be much higher in six months. The best defence is to act now and in Africa," he writes.
Professor Inglis and his colleagues are preparing to travel to west Africa to operate a mobile laboratory to diagnose cases of the disease at the fringes of the outbreak.
Ebola has already infected about 10,000 people in west Africa and claimed almost 5000 lives.
The United States Centres for Disease Control and Prevention estimate the number of Ebola cases in Sierra Leone and Liberia is doubling every 20 days, and by January could reach 1.4 million cases on present trends
Touring Ebola-hit nations this week, US ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power said too many world leaders were praising the efforts of others while doing little themselves.
"You have countries at the United Nations where I work every day who are signing on to resolutions and praising the good work that the United States and the United Kingdom and others are doing. But they themselves haven't taken the responsibility yet to send docs, to send beds, to send the reasonable amount of money," she told NBC.

Apple Candles - Great for 'A Perfect Pair' , ' Apple of My Eye' and Snow White themed weddings or events.
These are no mini candle either. They are the same size as real apples! With measurements of appx 3x3 (each candle will vary in size and shape just like real apples) Ever so lighted scented in Apple Tree.
Use them as place card holders. Simply stick a pin through your leaf shaped name card and in to the candle, guests can take the candle home at the end of the night.
These smell amazing and are so versatile. Apple themed weddings aren't their only decorating purpose. If you are looking for a teacher's gift, a small basket filled with apples and a note "If Teachers were apples I'd pick you" makes for a lovely gift for your child's special teacher.
Easy Entertaining and an Effortless Fall Table
Want a quick and easy dining table centerpiece. A piece of weathered reclaimed barn wood cut to the length of your dining table makes for a functional table runner. Use the plank as a stage for seasonal produce, such as plums, pears, apples, figs, and pattypan squash. Weave crabapple branches throughout for added texture, and stagger candles nestled in peat pots topped with moss or votive holders for ambience.
Putting apple candles in galvanized buckets makes for a homey and country chic decoration for coffee tables

Great Pancakes, Average Everything Else
The bravery café is one that takes an observant eye to find it at first try. With no fancy decor or signboard, my friend and I walked past it 3 times at least before realising it was the place. The interior too sports an extremely minimalist design, giving you the 'wonderful treasure find' feeling.
We ordered the beef sandwich and their famed banana pancakes. The sandwich is rather underwhelming, overcooked beef slices that made it pretty chewy and tough. As for the pancakes, I get why people flock all the way to Home Road just to have it. Extremely light and fluffy, 3 thick pancakes put on top each other, drizzled with shiny golden maple syrup and anointed with a banana. Super fragrant and comforting, what's not to like about that?
Overall, the experience was not too shabby, only gripe is that it can get pretty stuffy and hot inside after awhile, not a good place to buy a steaming cup of joe. But is it worth a revisit, yeah, for the pancakes.

Good Food, Great Atmosphere
The unique layout of this cafe makes for a very pleasant vibe indeed. Unlike most hipster cafes nowadays which are full to bursting and have barely any breathing space whenever it gets crowded, The Bravery has an abundance of room that allows you to move around freely. The large communal table right smack in the centre makes for a great spot for meetings and discussions, and there's plenty of decent grub too.
One must-have would be the Ricotta Cheese Pancakes, featuring some of the fluffiest pancakes I've come across. Super fluffy and topped with a generous dollop of ricotta cheese, banana slices and crushed pistachios. It's a delightful medley of tastes and textures that just work so well together. The syrup is tasty but can get a bit cloyingly saccharine after a while, so balance it out with some of their quality brews! I went with a creamy and robust cup of cappuccino and it did not disappoint.
If you're craving something savoury instead, don't miss out on the Beef Steak Ciabatta. Freshly baked ciabatta sandwiches thick, tender and juicy strips of beef that are just bursting with smokey flavour and aroma with every bite. Coupled with roasted veggies, oozing melted cheese and a dash of sauce, it makes for a hearty meal indeed!

Hawthorn, Victoria Australia (PressExposure) June 03, 2011 -- Managing a business requires knowledge in both management and accounting principles.

this girl I've been talking to and really like, I feel like I'm smothering her via text wise. Well I called couple days ago though she was at work(had to ignore call) understable. here's how it went.
Her: Hey I'm at work. what's up?
Me: My bad, your moves like jagger ringtone didn't go off did it? lol :P
Me:(several hours later) lol jk nah I just called to hear your voice.
Well it's been two days and she hasn't replied and I didn't text her should I wait for her to text so I don't come on as needy I really like this chick and don't wanna mess it up.
Most Helpful Girl
I don't think she would of answered you the first time from work if she didn't like you somewhat. The fact that she's still not texting you back though isn't so good, but than again she may just be one of those girls who rather have the guy start everything first, or is just busy doing her own thing and isn't thinking too much about it. I think you should wait on texting her, but it is a kind of hard thing to tell for sure. It's kind of uncool if your the only one doing all the texting, but it does happen. I'm kind of guilty of almost never texting or calling a guy first. Normally if we talk he has to start it. I get nervous about " smothering" as well. I try to force myself if I'm interested in someone to at least try to start things first once in awhile so he doesn't feel things are always one sided and he needs to move on. Good luck.00|00|0

This holiday was like a country house weekend."

Aigas Facilities
Over 35 years we have developed a range of facilities and schemes for the benefit of our guests. here you can read all about our pine marten and badger hide, the Loch hide, the Magnus House lecture hall, our vehicles, our extensive nature trails, the Loch and our ever popular and amazingly good value Swarovski binocular hire scheme.
Additionaly, you can watch the Horse and Country Channel profile on Aigas here.
The Quarry Hide
One mile up the glen is our celebrated pine marten and badger hide, built in 2003 at a large established badger sett. Our pine martens are extremely dependable (for completely wild animals), popping in most nights come rain or shine to check for tasty tidbits of jam and peanuts. Success rates are currently above 95% for our evening hide visits, easily the most reliable place in the UK to see these wonderfully boisterous creatures. Our local badgers also come in nigh on every night but are more unpredictable in their visits; sometimes you see them, sometimes you don't.
Other critters to be seen include wood mice, pipistrelle bats, roe deer, foxes and tawny & barn owls. Views are close, generally within 6 to 30 feet, with strong floodlights permitting viewing even after dark making it ideal for photography. Everyone staying at Aigas has a chance to visit the hide with a ranger, with hide visits included in the cost of our standard programmes based at Aigas.
Have a look at some of our YouTube videos of our wildlife - here.
The Loch Hide
In 2006 we introduced the European beaver, Castor fiber, to a wetland location on the Aigas estate. This is an enclosed demonstration project where it is possible to view beavers in their natural habitat from a convenient hide. As of 2015 - with the Scottish Government on the verge of making an announcement on the fate of the beavers' future in this country - we are winding our beaver project down. There are still a small number of beavers on the loch but viewing of them is no longer so reliable.
The Loch Hide remains a wonderful peaceful and contemplative place to spend time, and many of our guests like to use it before breakfast. As well as beaver, they enjoy regular sightings of osprey fishing the loch, otters, roe and red deer, foxes and more.
Please note that there is only light enough for beaver watching between May and 1st September.
The Tree-top Hide
A short walk from the cabins and lodges will bring you to our tree-top hide. On the edge of the moorland with Scots Pine and Larch close by, the hide provides an intimate glimpse into life in the treetops with crossbills, gold crests and other small birds flitting past.
The view stretches before you, over the moors to the fields of the valley below and down to the River Beauly, which meanders slowly along this section of Strathglass. We often see ravens, buzzards and red kites circling in their search for food. In the early morning red and roe deer graze on the open moor and foxes search for prey. At dusk woodcock are commonly seen roding over the treetops close to the hide. Over the last year or so we have enjoyed increasing views of hen harrier and merlin too.
The Campbell Hide
The Campbell Hide was built in close consultation with Laurie Campbell and has now been up and running since the 2011 season. It is superb for pine martens and badgers.
It is excellent for photography, as the windows open and there are lights providing side lighting to the animals, as well as natural setting on which they feed. This hide was the one featured in BBC Springwatch in 2012. Martin Hughes-Games enjoyed excellent pine marten views from it!
The Magnus House
The Magnus House (dedicated to long-time friend of Aigas, the late Magnus Magnusson) is our eco-friendly purpose built centre for environmental education. It is a fabulous example of sustainable building, with locally sourced and renewable materials used throughout; from a turf roof cut from the field just behind it to walling made using stone from our small on-site quarry. We were delighted to welcome HRH Prince Charles, Duke of Rothesay and HRH the Duchess of Rothesay to open the Magnus House in June 2009.
The building is primarily for use by the many groups of school children that visit Aigas for environmental education each year, run by our sister project Naturedays. By joining one of our wildlife holidays you are helping to support the environmental education work we do for children—so a big THANK YOU from all of us at Aigas and the thousands of children who have directly benefited from their visit to the field centre!
The Magnus House is also kitted out with state of the art audio-visual facilities and a huge projector screen with which to give presentations and lectures to our adult guests. Located just a few minutes stroll from the loch it is the perfect base for workshops to explore the wildlife on our doorstep.
Our Vehicles
We are not a minibus tour, and we make every attempt possible to restrict our time in the vehicles, allowing you to spend your time breathing in the glorious clean air of the Highlands and appreciating the peace and tranquility of the wild landscape.
At sites our experienced rangers may interpret the behaviour of a particularly confiding bird, or perhaps the turbulent history of the local highland clan and the ecological impact of the clearances, maybe even some bizarre local folklore or superstitions about a particular iconic species. There is so much to see and learn that a whistlestop tour seems a cruel injustice to the land itself, its past, and the rich bounty of wildlife to be found here.
To get from A to B, we have a small fleet of comfortable minibuses which can accommodate between 7 and 14 passengers (although we will rarely take more than 12). These are all fitted with PA systems so we can also interpret the landscape we pass through, and also act as excellent hides allowing us to get even closer to wildlife!
Our Nature Trails
The Aigas Estate offers a fascinating mosaic of habitats; our remnant Caledonian pine forest, native birch woods, plantation forestry, open moorland and a beautiful highland lochan. On the heather moor above the woodlands, exist the relics of both Bronze and Iron Age settlements from up to 5000 years ago.
Over 3 miles of trails meander through the estate introducing guests to the many habitats and species found around the grounds. These trails vary from a gentle circular route through native broadleaf and pine woodland around the loch, to more strenuous paths taking you up onto the heather moorland and into the past as you stand in a Bronze Age hut circle or the Iron Age fort. The view from here is breathtaking, stretching east over Strathglass to the Moray Firth and south-west to the mountains of Strathfarrar and Glen Affric.
The Aigas Loch
The Aigas Loch, Loch Cuil Na Caillich (loch of the nook of the old woman), is a freshwater loch set amongst shady woodland and open moorland scenery. At its deepest, it reaches a depth of 30 ft. The natural loch was extended by the Victorians in the late 1800s when they added a dam to stabilize the water level, and this has supplied all the water needs of Aigas for over 100 years!
The loch is a rich habitat supporting a natural population of wild brown trout and is also stocked with Rainbow Trout; a wonderful enticement for our local Ospreys on a summer evening, when they can be seen hovering above the loch and plunging in to snatch an unsuspecting fish. The loch has many moods, one moment it is dark and broody and the next calm and serene.
Swarovski Binocular Hire
We hire out superb Swarovski binoculars to guests at the rate of £20 per week. These binoculars (worth over a thousand pounds) are the best of the best with world class brightness and clarity. Contact us to reserve your pair, as numbers are limited.
"The very best wildlife encounters need the very best optics. Swarovski is delighted to work with Aigas, Scotland's celebrated nature centre." John Brinley, Managing Director, Swarovski Optik
