Why Sofia the First Will End in a Bloody Civil War
"Remember, your family is totally capable of ordering your bloody death for petty reasons."
My primary hobby in the world is overanalyzing the complex feudal politics of the kingdoms in Disney. It's how I relax. I've already explained before how Brave is not just the story of a plucky young woman finding the strength to be who she really is, but also a complex plot by her father to ensure that his line will maintain the loyalty of the lords underneath him through a combination of feminism and perpetual hope of a union. There was also my bit about how Elsa's status as a woman who is not defined by her romantic partner might be the lesson young girls need in the modern world, but creates a problem if Arendelle is to know continued peace.
Lately the princess that my daughter has been shoving into my eyeholes continuously is Sofia of the show Sofia the First. It's not a bad show, most of the time. The focus remains on learning how to be kind and fair, which is certainly something that we can all agree the world needs more of.
However, after sitting through probably my 125th episode I suddenly realized that if the tale of Sofia is taken far enough it's definitely doing to end in a blood civil war.
The problem is this... her step-siblings James and Amber are twins. Now, Amber is the eldest by seven minutes, but King Roland has stated on several occasions that James is the heir apparent. There's not really any reason for the passing over of Amber, so we're forced to assume that for some reason the kingdom of Enchancia does not allow women to ascend the throne. Or at least, not if there's a good enough excuse for keeping them off of it.

This is a recipe for civil strife in any kingdom, but throughout most of the show Amber seems to be content with her lot as an eternal princess as long as it doesn't affect her ability to enjoy royal finery. All of that sort of comes to a halt, though, in the episode "King for a Day". In that adventure, Roland decides to essentially test his son's readiness for the throne by giving him power while he, Miranda, and Amber take a day trip. Amber waves off the slight insult of instilling her brother with temporary regency, but is content to watch him fail as she taunts he will.
Amber is right, and James proves to mostly be a terrible leader with little regard for the consequences of his actions. A festival he throws wakes a sleeping giant, something Sofia, her friends, and even James' own court sorcerer advise against although Cedric follows his command regardless. Crisis is averted, and to James' credit he largely takes control of the situation handily, but there's no argument that had he listened to his stepsister there would have been no problem to solve in the first place.
Roland recognizes that, and jokingly suggests that next time it should be Queen for a Day, with Sofia the recipient of the power. The suggestion clearly shocks Amber. We can assume her twin and lawful biological heir to the throne is one thing, but a common-born adopted sibling being handed power over her is quite another.
This story continues on the next page.
The episode where we remember that the Evil Queen must have once been the Evil Princess
The show doesn't change much from the incident, but examples of increased competitiveness between the twins become much more commonplace. Nearly always, Sofia is forced to reconcile the two in the name of family and love, but neither James nor Amber seem to really take the lessons to heart judging by subsequent adventures.
We get look into a world ruled by Amber in the special The Curse of Princess Ivy. In that outing, Amber confronts her sister over the powers of her magical amulet, and Sofia finally reveals its powers of animal speech and summoning legendary princesses as oracles. Eaten up by jealousy that she has never "had a turn" with the magical artifact, Amber justifies herself into stealing the Amulet of Avalor from Sofia when she is sleeping. As a result, the amulet curses her and summons the evil princess Ivy to wreak havoc on Enchancia. Once again, it's up to Sofia to guide her elder sibling to a righteous path.
Increasingly this paints a picture of two highly competitive siblings each with a good claim on the throne and both of whom have shown a readiness to see the other fail but who are not on their own qualified to rule. Instead, it's their adopted sister who is clearly the more capable future regent despite her status regarding succession.
This gets more and more apparent as the show goes on that some sort of sweeping social change is coming to Enchancia. For instance, Sofia's very act of having been chosen by the amulet over Roland's biological daughter says something about the shifting importance of her coming role in the affairs of state. Then there's the fact that Roland's own older sister Tilly, who was also apparently passed over as heir, takes Sofia under her wing to test her worthiness on a series of adventures. Add in the ever-increasing magical powers and teachings she receives through the amulet with her clearly superior progress through magical arts over her siblings (Including private tutorials from Cedric) and Sofia has become the most competent magician in the royal family.
"So, if I act European enough your dad will give me back the piece of my heritage he just took off the beach and arbitrarily decided to be be the master of?
Then there's her other work to consider. She single-handedly avoided a potential war with the mermaids, possibly ensuing a naval alliance and increased military advantage for her father. She ended an apartheid and civil rights problem in the kingdom through her work with the local troll tribes. She averts yet another diplomatic blunder committed by the King, who in a kind of racist move nearly awards another magical artifact to an imposter of Princess Lei-Lani of Hakalo because she more capably apes proper Western princess behavior whereas Lei-Lani displays the customs of her actual homeland. Her elder siblings had small hands in deeds like that, but by and large have nothing similar to show themselves as capable regents.
That's a problem because as Sofia hold popular appeal both from deeds and for her connection to the common people of the kingdom, it puts increasing pressure on Roland to pass over his own inferior children. Though Amber and James are more than capable of working together to accomplish things, it's often only because they have the impartial wisdom of Sofia to lean on to do so. United against her, an alliance between them is almost certainly doomed to fail from the start, and will result only in something similar to James' giant fiasco or Amber's summoning of Ivy. This time, though, their sister won't be on hand to save things.
It's possible that Roland might persuade his children to accept Sofia's ascendency. He could even marry her to James as there is no biological reason not to and plenty of fairytale precedent for that sort of thing. Of course, Roland is rather oblivious and kind of an idiot, so there's not much hope for that.
Instead, I'm willing to bet that Sofia will eventually be forced to imprison, exile, or flat out have her siblings executed if whatever jealousy-driven scheme they come up with to oppose the coming Sorceress-Queen has deadly enough consequences. Logically, this is the only possible outcome in this particular Game of Thrones.
Why else would the show be called Sofia the First?

Thanks for the chapter!
TL: Note that in Japanese, the only native f-sound (fu) falls into the h-row of mora, so the f- and h- phoneme are considered strongly related. Hii and Fii are, I guess, quite similar to Japanese speakers.
Being led along by the somewhat frivolous, but kind knight, Fii finally managed to pass the castle gates.
"I'm Crow. I guess you already know, but I'm a knight of Orstoll. So what do I call you?"
"My name is Heath," casually replied Fii.
She had properly thought up an alias over these last two weeks.
(No. It's not an alias. It's going to be my new name.)
To be honest she had wanted to try a completely new name, but it wouldn't do if she couldn't react to the name properly.
The 'hea' in Heath sounded a little bit like 'Fii', so she chose that as her name.
Even after passing through the castle gates, the line of applicants still continued on.
Fii felt that she would be fine on her own now that she was outside, but it seemed that Crow intended on escorting her all the way to the end.
They continued to walk side-by-side.
"So why do you want to become a knight, Heath?"
"Umm, well…"
The question sent her into a panic.
Her goal was so clear that she had actually forgotten to form an excuse to use in public.
And it was impossible for her to honestly tell him that she wanted a new identity.
In a fluster, what she managed to come up with was,
"B-, Because knights are cool!"
Quite a stupid reason, if she did say so herself.
She could feel sweat forming at her brow again.
But Crow's reaction was actually positive.
"Yeah, you're right. Knights are cool, aren't they. I'm cool too, right?"
"Yes! I admire you!"
She was sucking up to him a little bit, but it was true that she did find him cool.
With his handsome looks and golden hair, together with his slim but built body, he looked terribly cool in his armour with the sword at his waist.
In the past, Fii too had wanted to become a knight. But she grew older, and the more she was shouldered with the burdens of a woman and a princess, the more she had forgotten this dream.
And Crow's appearance was exactly the image of knights that Fii had once admired.
"Yep, yep. I knew it. Knights are awesome, right? We're popular with women too. If you manage to become a knight as well, girls are gunna start flocking to ya. You'll find yourself a few girlfriends too!"
"I don't need that sort of thing…"
(He really is frivolous… Even though he looks so cool on the outside…)
Fii glared at him a little coldly.
Seeing her response, Crow just laughed.
"Hahaha, you're still such a little kid. By the way, I can't say I'm familiar with your accent. Where you from?"
Having her accent pointed out to her, Fii went stiff.
She had spent two weeks coming up with her new identity.
But being told that she had an accent, Fii suddenly lost a lot of confidence in it.
This knight knew a lot more about Orstoll than she did. She never knew when she might say something that sounded suspicious to him.
Fii couldn't think of any way to explain it.
"Ummm… Ermm… You see…"
"Ahh, so it's something you didn't wanna talk about, huh. Then don't worry about it. Sorry 'bout that."
Surprisingly, Crow had very simply dropped the subject after seeing her unrest.
(I guess this kid is an illegal immigrant… His clothes are pretty worn out too…) thought Crow.
It wasn't uncommon for children like that to aim to become a knight, in order to improve their own lifestyle.
Honestly speaking, illegal immigrants would normally be cracked down on, but so long as they weren't criminals, the knights would generally overlook them.
And far from turning them away, the apprentice knight exams were open to them as well.
By giving these people a chance, rather than cornering them with a crackdown, it would encourage them to exert themselves in the right way.
It was a policy that the King of Orstoll, Roy, had come up with.
<Previous Chapter | Index | Next Chapter>
Pingback: Chapter 5 | 'Ball'-kicking Gang Boss
Pingback: Chapter 7 | 'Ball'-kicking Gang Boss
For being such a "wise" king, he really knows how to treat a queen. Poor Fii is better off as a kid knight candidate than as a princess.
This series was named really well. Ready to start a gang to take care of that king.
I have one question for King Roy: How do you prevent other countries from using your illegal immigrant acceptance policy as a way to leak in spies?
I like Corw.
And also Thanks for the chap!!!
Thanks for the chapter!
This is awesome, thanks for the chapter!

Varietal performance
A FRIEND RECENTLY asked me about a bottle of 1989 Chateau Petrus. Off the top of my head I could tell him it was a 100-pointer, outrageously expensive and particularly rare. It was definitely a deserved inclusion in Wine Spectator magazine's list of wines of the century. I almost forgot to mention that Petrus was made almost entirely from merlot. 'Merlot,' my friend mused. 'I thought all the best reds were cabernet sauvignons.'
How wrong he was. With its soft texture, delightfully plummy fruit and mild tannins, merlot has a huge and ardent following. The 3,000 cases of Petrus made in Bordeaux's Pomerol area each year represent the pinnacle of merlot production. However, within the same commune, other serious contenders to the 'world's best merlot' crown include chateaux Le Pin, Vieux, Certan and L'Eglise-Clinet. St Emilion, down the road, harbours equally classy, merlot-dominated wines. Chateaux Angelus, Ausone and Tertre Roteboeuf are wines not to be sniffed at.
Producers in Australia, Italy, California and Chile are attempting to wrest the merlot crown from Pomerol and St Emilion. In South Australia's Eden Valley, self-proclaimed 'merlot-master' James Irvine has been making his Grand Merlot since 1985. Irvine is fascinated with the varietal and enthusiastically comments: 'Of all the red wines it is the most subtle, the most satisfying.' He has certainly been able to craft a world-class merlot in a region famed for cool-climate riesling.
The 1988 vintage of James Irvine Grand Merlot was judged equal first in Decanter magazine's 'world merlot tasting'. In 1993 Irvine was awarded the only gold medal in 6,300 entries at the prestigious International Wine Challenge. Then, in 1997, the 1992 vintage won the inaugural Swiss Academie du Vin's world's best merlot award. It sold out in Australia within a week. These days, thanks to such past glory and future promise, it is particularly scarce, even at $450 a bottle.
In Italy, the owners of the super-Tuscan Tenuta dell'Ornellaia also produce a blockbuster, 100 per cent merlot called Masseto. The 1999 vintage is probably the best Masseto yet. This is a rich wine with profound depth. The aromas are complex and lingering and mouth-filling tannins hug the palate, indicating an ageing potential of at least 20 years. But would-be buyers of Masseto should join the queue. With fewer than 1,500 cases made each year, its $1,100 price tag appears to be no deterrent to demand.
California and Chile produce mostly early-drinking merlots with luscious plum and currant flavours. In reference to its soft tannins, Californian merlots are often marketed as 'Merlot - cabernet without the pain'.
Further up the coast in Washington, producers are taking their merlot seriously. Most wine experts believe this is an area for aficionados of this varietal to keep their eye on. With a more northerly, cooler climate, Washington versions have an Old World character, with brighter fruit and more structure than their Californian counterparts. Here, demand far outstrips supply.
Chile has decided it has a responsibility to popularise merlot as an affordable, easy-drinking wine. Investment from Miguel Torres, Robert Mondavi, Kendall-Jackson and Mouton Rothschild has filled this wine-making paradise with money and expertise. Low labour costs and minimal pest and disease problems should allow prices to remain low. Some say Chile's best merlot is Casa Lapostolle's Rapel Valley Cuvee Alexandre. At $240, proof is in the price tag.
Irvine, meanwhile, is effusive when describing his favourite varietal: 'I adore its opulent texture, gracefulness and power, succulence, voluptuousness, silkiness and lushness, with its flavours of Chinese tea, black cherry, dark raspberries, violets, liquorice, truffles, fruit pastilles, brambles, tobacco leaf, mulberry and olives.' Yes please, I'd like a bottle of merlot.

Because of their purpose and function, floors tend to accumulate quite a bit of dirt and grime. After all, you are walking on them all the time, and if you have pets or children, there is even more dirt and grime accumulating traffic to worry about. Carpeted floors are some of the most challenging floors to keep clean, though, because they are made of fibers, which can easily trap dirt, mold, and other contaminating substances. Vacuuming, though essential, is not enough to eliminate all the dirt and grime that is present within your carpet, for a few reasons. It does not have the power to reach deep within your carpet, and it is also unable to clean up liquids and stains. Though there are a few home remedies that have some effect if the spill is still a liquid, once a stain dries, professional carpet cleaning from a qualified company, like Brooke's Chem-Dry, is your only choice.
Stain removal can be one of the most difficult aspects of cleaning a carpet. There are, after all, a lot of different elements that make it tricky. For one thing, most of the chemicals that are powerful enough to eliminate the stain are also powerful enough to stain your carpet, themselves. Plus, using the wrong combination of cleaning techniques can make the stain a lot worse and could ruin your carpet. If you want the stain to be removed, including its odor and any other traces of the stain, a thorough cleaning by the professionals is called for. Fortunately, Brooke's Chem-Dry is one of the best pet stain cleaners, in the area. They manage to get rid of the stains, without damaging your carpet or leaving any trace.
Getting your carpeted floors cleaned is something that you should have done every year, regardless of how much traffic your carpet gets or whether or not you have any visible stains. For one thing, since vacuuming is only reaching the surface dirt, there is probably a lot of deeply embedded dirt, mold, and grime that is stuck in your carpet. A lot of it, you may not even be able to see. Having a dirty carpet is bad because it contributes to the number of germs, dust particles, and allergens present in your home. This contributes to sinus issues and other medical problems. When it comes to this yearly cleaning, it is important to hire a contemporary and up-to-date company that utilizes the most efficient and environmentally safe procedures. Brooke's Chem-Dry is one such company. The patented Chem-Dry system is extremely effective, and it is also a lot better for the environment than steam cleaning, which is the method still employed by a lot of other carpet cleaners. Not only is the carbonated system that Chem-Dry utilizes a lot more efficient and environmentally-friendly, it is also a better and more sanitary way to get your carpet clean. It uses so much less water than steam cleaning that you do not even need to spend the night out of your house, after having it done.

So Tom Hiddleston Willingly Wore That "I Heart T.S." Tank Top
The actor has finally commented on his relationship with Taylor Swift.
Tom Hiddleston—who previously said "I don't know" when asked about Taylor Swift—has a better answer now. "Well, um. How best to put this?" Hiddleston told The Hollywood Reporter over the phone, when the outlet asked about the Hiddleswift conspiracy theories. Then he chuckled. "The truth is that Taylor Swift and I are together, and we're very happy. Thanks for asking."
In case there was any doubt, Hiddleston said it more clearly: "That's the truth. It's not a publicity stunt."

Which means he wore this by choice...not because he was under contract:

This is the true face of Hillary Clinton, no doubt about it. This video shows Clinton at a forum while she was Secretary of State. A young black voter, who clearly does not have English as a first language, asked Hillary about what Bill Clinton's views were and how they affect her decisions. Clinton at first looks confused until she finally gets what the woman is asking. Instead of answering the question, she got rude… very rude and it was totally unnecessary.
Hillary said that her husband wasn't Secretary of State and she would not channel his opinions. The young woman obviously touches a sore point… Hillary is deeply jealous of Bill. She ridiculed that student in front of everyone. Clinton looked offended and arrogant. She was in fact, b*tchy. Even the audience was taken aback by Clinton's malicious response.
From Dennis Michael Lynch:
In a video captured while she was Secretary of State, the vicious side of Hillary Clinton comes to the surface during a Q&A session. In the video, Clinton is asked by a young black voter who speaks broken english about what her husband Bill Clinton's views are and how it affects her decision making. It's a fair question, considering how apparently close knit the two are.
Rather than answer politely or even decline to answer, Clinton rudely ridicules the student, stating her husband's opinions are his own and that he was not Secretary of State. The answer is definitely coldhearted with malice, and the crowd quickly released "oohs" after Hillary hits the student with the bombshell response.
Hillary Clinton should never, ever be president. You can see here how she looks down on others. To be factual, she's a racist as well. What you see here is how she would behave as Commander-in-Chief and that ought to terrify you.
For decades, Clinton has abused everyone around her… her husband, the Secret Service, the military, the police and her staff. She is hated just about universally. Do you really think she wouldn't bring that power-hungry hatred into the White House? There would be enemy lists that would go on and on. She will use the DOJ and executive actions even more than Obama. She will actively go after those who oppose her as well.
Hillary Clinton is a bullet to the brain of America. She is not only corrupt to the core, but vicious, haughty and brutal. If she treats those who support her as you see in this video, just think how she will treat all of America.

LIVE CHAT replay: Ryan Bader workmanlike in win over Ovince Saint Preux
Ryan Bader is ready to take that next big step in the light heavyweight division. Again.
The former Ultimate Fighter winner defeated Ovince Saint Preux by unanimous decision (48-47, 49-46, 49-46) in a workmanlike performance Saturday in the main event of UFC Fight Night on FOX Sports 1 in Bangor, Maine. Bader, who came in ranked No. 8 among 205-pound contenders, could get a top-five opponent next. His only career losses have come against the likes of champion Jon Jones, Lyoto Machida, Tito Ortiz and Glover Teixeira.
In the co-main event, Ross Pearson knocked out Gray Maynard with a short right hand. Pearson rebounded after a disheartening split decision loss to Diego Sanchez in June, a bout that just about everyone thought he should have won.
The entire main card was action packed. Tim Boetsch knocked out Brad Tavares in the second round, Alan Jouban came back from being rocked to flatten Seth Baczynski in his UFC debut and Shawn Jordan TKO'd Jack May in the third round. Thiago Tavares made his featherweight debut by choking out Robbie Peralta in the first round to raise the curtain on the main card.

Granger leads Pacers past BullsFeb 28, 2010 - 4:04 AM Indiana Pacers haven't given up on the season.
Granger had 30 points and eight rebounds to help the struggling Pacers beat the Chicago Bulls 100-90 on Saturday night.
The Pacers snapped a three-game losing streak and won for just the second time in nine games to improve to 20-39.
"It feels real good to get a win," said Granger, who added four steals and a block. "We've been struggling a little bit lately and you just have to stay positive. The season is closing out and we have to keep pushing ahead.
"You just play with your pride. Regardless of what it's going to mean, you want to go out and give your best effort and try to win every game."
Dahntay Jones and Troy Murphy each had 17 points, and Roy Hibbert added 12 for the Pacers, who avoided being swept by the Bulls this season in the teams' four games.
"We just want to play for each other," Hibbert said. "I think we did a great job of that tonight. Maybe we can make a run. You never know what happens in this league."
Derrick Rose had 27 points, and Luol Deng added 13 points and 18 rebounds for the Bulls (31-28), who trailed most of the game and fell behind by 16 in the fourth quarter.
"We could not score on a consistent basis," Chicago coach Vinny Del Negro said. "There wasn't enough efficiency offensively."
Indiana pushed a 12-point lead in the third quarter to 94-78 on Hibbert's two free throws with less than 5 minutes left in the game. James Johnson's 3-pointer got the Bulls to 96-88 with 2 minutes left, but four straight free throws by Granger and Murphy sealed the victory.
"We didn't want to get swept by them," Granger said. "It's hard to beat a team four times in a row."
The first half featured seven ties and two lead changes and neither team led by more than nine points. The Pacers took their biggest advantage of the half, 50-41, on Brandon Rush's jumper late in the second quarter.
Indiana stretched its lead to 12 on numerous occasions in the third quarter, including Murphy's jumper to end the period.
"This is one of those bumps in the road," said Chicago's Taj Gibson, who finished with 14 points, nine rebounds and three blocks. "We just have to get back on track."
Pacers coach Jim O'Brien has been impressed with his team's ability to stay focused, despite its disappointing record.
"Good win for our team," he said. "We did a lot of positive things. We built a lead and kept a lead."
Indiana capitalized on 21 Chicago turnovers.
"We had way too many turnovers," Del Negro said. "We had a lot of times where we could have converted but didn't."
NOTES: Pacers C Jeff Foster (back) and F Tyler Hansbrough (ear infection) did not play. ... Deng was given a technical foul for arguing a call in the fourth quarter.

Our guest? The debonair Boosh Clown!
Boosh seriously has some fucked up stories. One in particular being when he shaved his head to look like Bozo the Clown/Larry David. Then he had Heath punch him in the face. WTF?
Dude is jacked, but dude is funny. What can I say, it's a combo I'm drawn to.
And Boosh's girlfriend, Anna, is an adorable little Russian nutball!! Anna likes to beat the shit out of Boosh when it is necessary. Like when she's driving home drunk from Teddy's.

Discussion in 'General Industry Discussions' started by birddseedd, Jun 27, 2013.
waht the title says
Yeah I take my son.
I take my dad
I took the kids on ride alongs to the dump only. Never to a jobsite.
Insurance, workers laws and pure professionalism stand in opposition to little ones running around a clients property.
Yes I have and always will. They learn appreciation.
I've taken my dad as well, now he just says no!
Even took my daughter a couple of days ago too.
my lil girl is 1.5. i like having her and hte wifey with me. tho i'v been yelled at a couple times. wife is willing to pull weeds. baby tires to help.
was fun. last time i was shoveling mulch. she was standing in the truck waiting for me, i put the shovel down. she throws in 2 handfuls of mulch, i scoop it full and dump it. come back and she is waiting with 2 more handfuls. so cute.
She was asleep by the time i got home today, so clients can screw off.
My dad took me to work when I was 8.
I've been operating my business going on 30 years and have been in the trade for over 40.
I'm now bringing my own 8 year old boy and my 10 year old daughter.
The other day, my son and i was at a client that my father started back in 1963. Mary saw me working with Jack my son. She started bawling like crazy. (she's pushing 89). When I checked up on her, she told me how it brought back memories of me and my deceased father who she misses a lot. She also really enjoyed how my son was trying to do his best.
yep, although solo most of the time, my boy helps out during the summer and when not in school. Funny thing is, he started complaining about it, SO we went out and had him get a REAL job? Real job that makes minimum wage...so he is now starting to appreciate what he was/is getting when we are mowing and blowing!!
he's been working really hard this summer though, and I applaud him for that. Some lessons are learned the hard way. Proud dad moment, but he is starting to show some maturity at 16....STARTING too....LOL.

"Delays for appointment at Guernsey House"
About: Guernsey House / Primary care addiction service Sheffield (PCASS) Guernsey House Primary care addiction service Sheffield (PCASS) S2 4HG
Posted by Label329 (as ),
I want to say every time I attend Guernsey House I've never been seen on time. I turned up today at 10:40 for my appointment and there were people still sat there waiting for 10am appointments.
Also, all chemists are very unreliable - in my experience, there is never a full-time pharmacist working, but only a locum (if you're lucky). It has got to the point that I'm scared of going because there's always something wrong.
Response from Dr Roger Smith 8 years ago
This is a reply to all the patients attending Guernsey House who have sent us their opinions of the service we are providing. We will be replying to specific individual responses but felt a general response was necessary to show that we are not ignoring the excellent feedback we have had so far.
There have been many good things said about the service as well as some specific areas that can be improved, but the overwhelming theme on the negative side has been the clinics running late, people having to wait beyond their appointment time to be seen and difficulty accessing the service when things go wrong. We have noted these complaints and are looking at ways of dealing with them. The solutions will be posted on the website for discussion.
Please keep the feedback coming and encourage other patients to participate this is a vital link in improving the service. Thank you to all of you that have responded

Response from Patient Opinion 7 years ago
Thank you for your posting, we are unable to comment on your experince with the chemist.
We've received a number of postings which comment on waiting times so we wanted to reply in a way that let everyone know what we were doing to improve this. The postings such as yours have really made us realise exactly what the issues were for service users and how to move forward.
We try at Guernsey House to offer a service that is sympathetic to the challenges that face our service users and know that sometimes it is difficult to get to appointments on time and they can be missed. When this happens we still want to make time for these people as quickly as we can. This can have a knock on effect on the rest of the clinic and can increase waiting times but we feel it is important to keep people in treatment and hope that you understand why this is necessary.
In light of this, there may be very little scope for improving waiting times but what we think we could do better is communicate with you what is happening in the clinic at any one time. We're trying to make sure people know if the clinic is running late and by how much so that you know where you are and how long a wait to expect. At first we intend to do this through the reception staff so that you can plan around any delay and know we have not forgotten you are here. We are also planning to install digital signs in the waiting room so that at a glance you can see when you will be seen by a doctor. We have also put some information in the waiting room to explain what is happening after you have seen the doctor and are waiting for your prescription.
We hope you find this information useful, please post again and let us know what you think of the changes we have made. Thank you very much for bringing your concerns to our attention because it has allowed us to make changes that we think will benefit everyone.

Gods, Heroes And a Bit Of Politics
Since the Renaissance, European artists have loved to depict Greek and Roman myths. A new exhibition at the Getty Center in Los Angeles shows how contemporary events, raging just outside the artists' studios, sometimes crept onto those classically inspired canvases.
In "Paris and Helen," a 1786 drawing by French artist Jacques-Louis David, set around the time of the Trojan War, Helen leans against her abductor Paris, alongside an ornate bed in a curtained room. Cupid stands in the shadows behind the bed. Some...

As the National Hockey League (NHL) today canceled the first two weeks of the regular season, U.S. Senator Frank R. Lautenberg (D-NJ) reiterated his call for the NHL and NHL Players' Association to reach an agreement that would allow the rest of the season to be played and minimize the economic impact on hockey towns across the country. The New Jersey Devils play in downtown Newark, and Lautenberg expressed concern that canceled games would severely impact the city's workers and businesses. So far the NHL has canceled the entire preseason as well as regular season games through October 24, including the first three home games for the New Jersey Devils.
"This cancellation of regular season hockey games is a blow to businesses and workers in Newark and in hockey towns across the country. Local jobs and millions of dollars of economic activity are being placed at risk every day that this dispute continues," said Senator Lautenberg. "The NHL should keep in mind that communities, workers, and families are being hurt by its decision to pursue a lockout and cancel these games. Owners and players must find a way to start the season before the economies in Newark and other communities are further damaged."
Earlier this week, Senators Lautenberg and Robert Menendez (D-NJ) sent a letter to NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman and NHL Players' Association Executive Director Donald Fehr calling for an end to the lockout.
