Old rivalry is set to reignite
Like-minded Pep and Mauricio have history from Catalan days
It was December 2010 when a 38-year-old Mauricio Pochettino said: "I am not the anti-Guardiola." He was desperately trying to manage expectations.
His Espanyol team were about to host Pep Guardiola's Barcelona. Pochettino had won one, drawn one and lost one in La Liga against Guardiola so far and was expected to get another result this time. "In football the players are the protagonists, not the coaches," he insisted.
Barcelona proved Pochettino's point for him. Espanyol worked ferociously hard, as any Pochettino team does. And Guardiola's Barcelona dismantled them 5-1.
This was just three weeks after Barca beat Jose Mourinho's Real Madrid 5-0. They were playing some of the best football ever played, halfway through a season which ended with the La Liga and Champions League titles. Guardiola called it "the most complicated game" of Barcelona's season so far, and it was.
Some coaches thought that the way to play Guardiola's Barcelona was to park the bus. They saw Mourinho's Inter Milan scraping past in that famous Champions League semi-final second leg, six months before. But not Pochettino. He wanted to fight fire with fire.
That is how he had got results against Barcelona in the past. So he had his head held high afterwards, despite being humiliated. "The team was true to our philosophy, and we tried with all our strength," Pochettino said. "But Barcelona are in a state of grace, close to touching perfection."
That was the fifth of nine meetings between Guardiola and Pochettino when they were coaching the two clubs of Barcelona. They had parallel spells in their first senior jobs: Guardiola arrived six months before Pochettino, they both lasted four years, Pochettino was sacked six months after Guardiola's exhausted resignation.
Their last meeting was Guardiola's last home game at the Nou Camp, an emotional 4-0 triumph. More than four years on, they meet again at White Hart Lane tomorrow, managing Tottenham and Manchester City respectively.
Their careers have followed different paths. Pochettino is still aiming for his first major trophy, Guardiola has won 21. But what was true when they started their careers is still true now: they have markedly similar philosophies of football, with shared influences and shared characteristics on the pitch.
Both like their teams to dominate possession, to build from the back, to take the initiative and to create chances. Both like their teams to defend high up the pitch, to press high, winning the ball back within three seconds, protecting against the counter-attack. Both are obsessive perfectionists and workaholics who demand the same professionalism and application from their players.
What is so interesting is how Pochettino and Guardiola arrived at the same conception of the game at the same time, at the same age, in the same city, but from two different angles. Pochettino owes it all to Marcelo Bielsa, the man who discovered him in the dead of night, aged 15, while trying to recruit youngsters for Newell's Old Boys.
Pochettino won titles for Bielsa's Newell's, before playing for him again at Espanyol and then for Argentina.
Guardiola never got to play under Bielsa, and it is one of the few regrets of his career. Back in 2006, a 35-year-old Guardiola had just finished playing for another hero of his, Juan Manuel Lillo, at Dorados Sinaloa in Mexico. So he made the pilgrimage down to Argentina to meet Bielsa and learn from his ideas. Within a year he was in charge of Barcelona B.
When Guardiola and Pochettino stepped into coaching, they both did so with philosophies and methods that were almost fully-formed. Pochettino took over at Espanyol with the club, where he was a hero as a player, in crisis. He was appointed on the same day in January 2009 that Barack Obama was inaugurated as US president.
At Pochettino's first game, a 0-0 draw with Guardiola's Barcelona in the Copa del Rey, Espanyol fans brought "Yes we can" banners. In the second leg, Barcelona won 3-2.
What struck everyone most at Espanyol was how this novice knew exactly what he wanted.
The Espanyol players instantly learned what Pochettino wanted from them. In February, they travelled to the Nou Camp. Barcelona were 10 points clear at the top of the table. The Spanish press said that they would be "fighting King Kong with a teaspoon".
"All the people said 'Espanyol is dead, they have no chance'", Pochettino later recalled. "For 27 years, Espanyol had never won the derby away."
Pochettino's plan was to attack Barcelona with a style close to their own. "Barcelona were top, and the plan was to press high and to surprise them," Pochettino said. "They were surprised how we played. We won 2-1, a very special victory." Barcelona went on to win the treble, but Espanyol stayed up.
That was a vindication for Pochettino's football, for taking the fight to their celebrated rivals, meeting Barcelona's pressing with some pressing of their own. He never beat them again, but he earned Guardiola's respect.
In December 2009, Barcelona scraped a 1-0 win over Espanyol, thanks to a fortunate penalty. For the return fixture at the Estadi Cornella-El Prat, Espanyol battled their way to a famous 0-0 draw, in which Dani Alves was sent off. Pochettino's football was described as "guerrilla warfare", for their energy and aggression.
This was the context for Pochettino having to deny that he was the "anti-Guardiola" before the December 2010 meeting. Despite that heavy defeat, Pochettino's team could still cause Barcelona problems. Espanyol lost 2-0 at the Nou Camp in May 2011, just before the Champions League final triumph at Wembley, and there is no shame in that.
In their final season as rivals, Espanyol earned a 1-1 draw at home, days after Barcelona had won the 2011 Club World Cup. Their last game was that 4-0 farewell to Guardiola. Of course Guardiola has a superior record, with four wins from seven league meetings. But Pochettino is proud of the fact he coached inferior players towards a similar style of play.
That, ultimately, is why Guardiola has won so much more than Pochettino. The Argentinian is still waiting to reach those same heights.

A new Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan film has been released in Germany. Read my review of the film as well as an interview with the creators and a list of the best (and worst) Buffy and Angel fan films the internet has to offer!
On 5 May 2014, a new Buffy The Vampire Slayer fan film premiered on Youtube. On first note, this is probably nothing special – people make fan films all the time!
Mostly low-budget, these films can often be parodic in nature and are set (at least in part) in the same universe as the original series – in this case: Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Angel.
So when I heard about the new fan film entitled "Die Jägerin" (The Slayer) – a low-budget production by the two young German film makers Kurt Kliebisch and Kevin Schmidt – I was sceptic at best, especially because this is the first German Buffy fan film I've encountered.
But, having finished all my Buffy comics, I thought, "Ok, let's give this a go!" and sat down to watch the one-hour-and-three-minute film on Youtube.
And boy, was I positively surprised!!!
The film is set in the Buffy- and Angelverse, ten years after the Angel season 5 finale. In a German town, girls have gone missing and a splinter group of the Watchers' Council is in dire need of slayers – four of them to be exact. Miriam – the local slayer – as well as Elisabeth, Magdalena and Robin – three slayers, who travel from town to town and have been specifically called to assist the watchers in this case. Together with Miriam's twin brother Elias and their watcher Gabriel, they go on the hunt for whatever evil has taken over the town and kidnapped the girls. But what they find is not what they expected and may change their lives forever…
I've embedded the film at the bottom for you to watch and would love to hear what you think of it! But first, let me tell you why I think this is not just any fan film:
The acting
I often find that German film and TV actors over-act a lot. For a visual explanation of the phenomenon – called 'actoring' – see Tomska's video on Youtube. Watching "Die Jägerin", I was expecting to see a lot of this, but actually was quite impressed with the acting. For an amateur film, the characters are delivered believably and consistently and the plot evokes enough emotion for the viewer to care about what is happening to the protagonists. Especially in some scenes towards the end, the characters' emotions really came across well and I felt with them. Some relationships, for example between the slayer Magdalena and her boyfriend David or between Elisabeth and Elias, could have been expanded to add more depth to the characters, but over all, I liked it.
The plot
According to the "Jägerin"-film team, they used the TV shows as main reference for the film, so the plot doesn't account for the events happening in the comic books. Readers of the Dark Horse Buffy series (currently starting season 10) may want to start a discussion about why the film's plot wouldn't be able to happen and what is or isn't canon – but let's put that aside for a moment and see the film for what it is. One always has to remember that not everyone reads the comics, and for some people the story ended in 2004. I think the film deserves to be seen as a work of its own and as inspired by the show. As such, it works well, draws on parallels from the show and picks up some plot threads. From a fan's perspective, some actions in the film (without giving too much away) could seem a little far-fetched. But the plot has sense and direction, and is well put together.
The directing / choreographies
Ok, the fighting isn't always kick-ass. Again, the simple explanation is that these guys probably didn't have the budget to hire a martial arts expert or train all their slayers for years to make their fighting look super real. I think this is hard to achieve and I wasn't looking for amazing stunts in this film anyway. The scenes had some good angles and followed each other well – explaining enough to know what is happening, but not too much so as to preserve the sense of mystery that stays for the main part of the film.
The effects / props
This is what really won me over! I have since researched some other Buffy fan films (see further down) and I can honestly say that nowhere have I found vamp-dusting effects that are as good as these! I would even go so far as to say they look better than some effects in the early seasons of BTVS! (Sorry, Joss…) The props were also well-made! If you go to the team's facebook page or their Youtube channel, there are some photos and videos about the behind-the-scenes work, from vamp make-up to crafting the headstones (here I thought some of them were real!) and even the making of the teaser. It all looks like it was a lot of fun! And I don't know where they got the props, like the cool axes and crossbows or the Buffy scythe, but they look impressive. (Mega jealous right here…)
What is remarkable about this film is that it isn't a parody. It doesn't aim to copy BTVS or Angel. It is legitimate fan fiction. Even though it is in German / set in Germany, the theme makes it universally applicable. That is the beauty of the Buffyverse: By ending the shows the way he did, creator Joss Whedon made it possible for millions of fans to think up their own stories and characters. Their stories can be about the set of established characters we all know and love, but they don't have to be.
I think the creators of "Die Jägerin", Kurt Kliebisch and Kevin Schmidt, accomplished what they set out to do with this film very well, and they made a work of fan fiction / fan art that can be seen as a stand-alone story and as part of a larger universe.
Speaking of the creators, I had a chance to interview them on the process of making the fan film. So here it is – the story of making "Die Jägerin":
[WARNING! – Spoilers ahead!]
Kurt and Kevin have been fans of BTVS for years, and have already made a couple of short films together with their friends and fellow Jägerin-contributors Adrian Jankowiak and Christian Nickel. According to them, the idea for the Buffy project came one evening at Kurt's house, where they found a replica from the series and hence started spinning ideas for a story set in the Buffyverse. The script was co-written by Kurt, Kevin and Adrian. Although it changed through time, their idea to connect it to Willow's spell (to make all potentials into slayers) and the First Evil remained the focus point. Kurt also handled the cut, sound and special effects.
The team mainly took the shows as reference for the story, but also drew on the Fray comic for inspiration. This can be seen in the characters Miriam and Elias – because he is Miriam's twin, Elias has inherited some of the slayer powers (like prophetic dreams), which is a homage to Harth Fray. Fun fact: some of the other characters' names are also inspired by the original Buffy and Angel actors – for example the witch Amber (named for Amber Benson – Tara) and Magdalena's boyfriend David (named for David Boreanaz – Angel).
Over all, it took them one year to produce the film. Although they launched an IndieGoGo campaign to help fund the film, the budget must have been one of the hardest things to manage – out of the € 1,000 they set as their campaign goal, they only received € 236. But thanks to some generous sponsoring of make-up, gas (for transport), electricity and invested time as well as an additional funding of € 500 on the night of the premiere, they were able to complete the film none the less. All the actors in the film worked free of charge. Many of them were friends and others, who were recruited online, became friends during the making of the film.
The film premiered in Nordhausen, Germany, on 5 May – the cast and crew rented out the Filmpalast Nordhausen to watch the film together with all contributors, family, friends and fans. On the same day, the film premiered on Youtube. So far, it has got over 4,000 views. That may not seem like a lot, but for a fan film with a low-budget production, it is impressive.
I can only congratulate the team of the "Die Jägerin" film. They created an inspiring piece of fan fiction, made a film that can hold its own against other international fan film productions and it looks like they had a lot of fun doing it!
Ok, I've talked enough about it, so here it is for you to watch. The English subtitles are a little slow sometimes, but I think it's still comprehensible.
Please leave your own reviews in the comments, as I would love to read what you think of it!
Scroll down for a list of other Buffy and Angel fan films I've found online.
Other Buffy and Angel fan films
A story about the Scooby gang, taped on VHS in 2002, with the Buffy part quitting after the first act. Best part: the guy playing Xander – his jokes are spot on! 😉
Muffin the Turtle Killer
A parody of Buffy – for those who don't take things so seriously and enjoy a good laugh. The same guy also makes Vangelis – an Angel parody.
My French is a little rusty, but as far as I can tell, this is a story about the Scooby gang (though not a parody). There are only parts 3 and 4, but these guys are also making a new series called L'alliance (Buffy/Angel) which seems to continue after BTVS season 7 / Angel season 5.
This is only a teaser, since this is still in development. But so far, it seems like this will be a film version of the Fray comic book! Looks a little more pricey and very cool, but sadly there isn't any more info yet. They have a campaign, too, which has already reached its funding goal.
If you know any more fan films from the Buffyverse to add to my list, or if you have suggestions for other topics you'd like for me to discuss, please leave them in the comments! 🙂

iPhone X review
Roxio Easy Cd creator
I hope someone can give me some Ideas on this I have Version 5 installed and fully updated, but I am having problems with the direct cd, it wont give me the option to SEND TO the cdrw driver, I also have Version 6 which I uninstalled as I didn't like it but had no problems with the Direct cd on this version. Is there any way I can install the Direct CD off the version 6 as a stand alone programme everytime I try it keeps telling me to uninstall version 5 I'm sure I read somewhere that you could do a custom installation but I can't think how, any help appreciated
If the only problem you're having is you're missing the "send to > CD Drive" shortcut, you can try re-creating it and see if it will work.
If you use XP, navigate to the c:\documents and settings\[username]\Send To\ folder. If you can't see the Send To folder, click Tools, Folder Options, View tab, and tick "Show hidden files and folders" and click OK.
Double click the Send To folder. Right click an empty part and select New > Shortcut. Choose your CDRW drive and click OK. You can rename the shortcut to CD Drive or CDRW or whatever you like.
Then put in a formatted CDRW, right click any file and select Send To > CDRW, and see if it works.
How do you explore?
Also the shortcut appears when there is no disc in the drive but disappears when I insert one
Press Shift, then put the version 6 CD in the drive. Keep Shift pressed till the drive's status light stops blinking (this is to avoid the CD autorunning).
Right-click the CD-drive & click on Explore (not Open). You'll see a few files/folders in the righthand pane. Browse the folders thoroughly until you find the DirectCD folder (it may be named something else*). Open the DirectCD folder & click on the setup file (.exe) to start the installation for DirectCD alone.
[*As I don't have the DirectCD disc I cannot tell you exactly where this is or what it's called. Maybe someone else who does will be able to point you in the right direction if you cannot find it. Also, it may not be present as a separate setup program in the first place!]
OK Thanks for that I'll give it a try later on
Version 6 does not have direct Cd, It as an updated version called "Drag to Disk" this can be installed as a stand alone program. Just go through the initial set-up procedure as normal, you will then be able to deselect the components that you do not require.
Not sure what it is that you dislike about v6 as it's far superior to v5, however each to his/her own.
I didn't like it as I use soundstream a lot, it seems to be very good if you do a lot with video but as I don't I preferred 5. I tried to install drag to disk as a stand alone programme but it won't let me as I have 5 installed, it says I have to uninstall that first
Completely uninstall ECDC 5 first (incl. DirectCD). Next try to install just the Drag to disk program from v6 (as per hssutton's suggestion). Finally install ECDC 5 leaving out DirectCD.
Or, try uninstalling just DirectCD 5 (NOT the entire ECDC 5 program) first & then try to install just Drag to disk from v6.
Also, when attempting to install Drag to disk don't go through the normal ECDC setup dialogue if you can avoid it, as it will keep throwing up the warning to uninstall the other version first. Instead use the 'explore' method I taught you above, single it out & install from there (if it's possible).
Ok I'll give it a try tomorrow too late now my eyeballs are sore

Isn't the .me domain for the country of Montenegro?
How can anyone in the USA even consider it to be worth having a .me domain?
September 11th, 2008, 01:55 PM #4
Don't get me wrong I do think some .me have value, there is one in particular that I want and would pay top dollar for (non aff nor personal name related) and I also just bought a good one on auction ($70) that could be a nice project but millions for a .me ... not today.
September 11th, 2008, 02:58 PM #5
H - after reading the op again, I think he is saying that the auctions for .me totaled 2 million, that would be for all the names auctioned, not for one domain.
That actually sounds very low for as many potential names as would be available.
I see value in some .me domains, but the key to this launch is that the extension gets active in the public arena and promoted as a brandable domain name. If the owners end up parking the names in hopes of them appreciating in value the .me will become the next .info and synonymous with junk sites for the most part.Someday starts today

A palate that reads like a fancy cocktail: blueberry, blackberry, red cherry, cranberry are layered with juniper, dried rosemary & lavender, thyme and rosehip. This delicious fruit salad is grounded by white pepper, sour cherry, dried cherry and dried fig. So elevated, light and elegant, bright and perfumed and crisp and floral on the palate.
Heard of Ruche before? No, me neither but it is definitely one of Italy's hidden gems. Those that whisper behind closed doors suggest that Ruche originated in France but nowadays Piedmont is firmly it's home. Famed for it's red berries, perfumed character and earthy peppery notes Ruche is somewhere between Syrah and Nebbiolo and it thrives in the loose limestone rich soils of the Bric d'Bianc vineyard whose altitude and southwest exposure help highlight the grapes natural elegance. Ruche has remained in relative obscurity but Luca Ferraris and his 28 other Ruche-growing neighbours have decided to finally share their secret with the world.
Originally funded by a great grandfather who found gold in the US, the vineyard has been in the family since 1921 with modernisation and commercialisation only beginning in 2009 under Luca's influence. However modernisation is not the only buzz word of the day with Luca remaining dedicated to sustainable farming and passing down the skills he learned from his grandparents. The wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks and aged in large oak barrels marrying old and new techniques to extract only the best flavours from this underappreciated, often forgotten, brilliant quality wine.

Check out the nurserymen's plant sale
As you read this, we are traveling up the west coast of Africa, and are seeing plants we recognize from our gardens in Hawaii. For example, the popular Tree Bird of Paradise and Blue and Gold Bird of Paradise, Strelitzias are native to South Africa. Some of the strange succulents like the Ice Plant Family, Aizoaceae come from the deserts of Namibia. The climate of parts of South Africa are much like Southern California and Kula Maui, but as we travel northward along the coast, the vegetation and landscape becomes dryer to the point that there are mostly windblown sands in some areas. How much of this is due to human and animal impact is a question that comes to my mind. I look forward to getting closer to the equator where tropical forests reign.
Even if you don't get out traveling much, you can still have the world in your garden! One of the best ways to see what's new is to visit the annual BIAN Plant Show and Sale Friday and Saturday, March 7-8, at the Edith Kanaka'ole Stadium in Hilo. You will have a chance to visit with plant specialists from all over the island in one spot.
Spring is a perfect time to dress up your garden. If you are getting tired of the same old common plants in your garden, why not try something different. Maybe you can even specialize. There are fantastic numbers of plant materials to choose from, but we seem to get in a rut with whatever we can "cockroach" from our neighbors. This year's plant sale will offer new plants galore. There will be plants from "A to Z" or to put it another way, "from Absyssinian cordia to Zombia."
Thanks to palm lovers like the Hawaii Island Palm Society, hundreds of new species are growing in Hawaii. Many of these are endangered in their native habitat so Hawaii is kind of a Noah's Ark for palms. Of course, our native Pritchardias will also be available at the plant sale.
Ferns are a good example of a whole family of plants that are very poorly represented in our gardens. It's not that they can't be grown, but that we don't. They require very little fertilizer but do require moisture and shade from intense sunlight. Our cooler Mauka areas are probably the best for growing ferns, but many types may be grown almost anywhere with protection.
We have hundreds of ferns native and introduced to Hawaii, but this is just a fraction of the more than 9,000 species found throughout the world. Members of the fern family vary from moss-like mini ferns to gigantic palm-like tree ferns over 30 feet in height. There are many ferns that live attached to trunks and branches of trees like the native Bird Nest Fern (Asplenium Nidus-Avis) and the staghorn ferns, Platycerium species. Most ferns prefer those shady, moist locations, but some species will take full sun, so there is a spot in your garden for at least one or two types. A side benefit of ferns is that some are edible.
In the landscape, ferns give a lush rainforest effect. They give that ultra tropical look that really makes a garden special. The most striking effect, by far, is created by the treefern types. We take our native hapu`u for granted but they are listed among the 800 plus species of treeferns considered threatened or endangered in the wild.
Bamboos are another group of plants people like collect. Of course, you need plenty of room for the giant bamboos of Bali and Java, but there are many small, well mannered species ideally suited to the average garden or even grown in the container.
The hottest bamboo items in the trade now include the Mexican Weeping Bamboo, and clumping black bamboos. The scientific name is even beautiful once you learn to say it! Otatea aztecorum is a small clumping bamboo that grows from 8 to 15 feet in height under ideal conditions. In a container, it will remain much smaller. This unusual bamboo is reminiscent of a many stemmed weeping willow with leaves 6 inches long and one eighth inch in width giving it a lacy look. The foliage masses bend nearly to the ground. A large clumping bamboo with similar weeping effect is the New Guinea Sweet Shoot Bamboo, Nastus elatus. The clumping black bamboos include the Timor Black and the Giant Hitam Bamboo. The latter is new to Hawaii and quite pricey but well worth it if you have the room. It will reach 100 feet in height with culms 38 inches in circumference. Shoots are edible and it is great for construction. If you really get into bamboos you will want to learn more so you can join the Hawaii Chapter of the American Bamboo Society.
Other plants groups you might look for are the vireyas, sometimes known as tropical rhododendrons. On the Big Island we also have a Vireya Society and Tropical Fruit Society. By the way, don't forget orchids! And guess what? We have an orchid society as well. All these groups will help you expand your knowledge of horticulture. Be sure to check out the BIAN Plant Sale for these and other special plants.

text: Here's some exciting just-out news from the Modern Language Association (MLA), the main professional organization for North American college and university teachers of language and literature. The MLA has just adopted a new document entitled "Evaluating Translations as Scholarship: Guidelines for Peer Review." Those of you who have been following the acceptance and non-acceptance of translators in the academy over the past few decades will understand what a revolutionary step this is. It wasn't so long ago that tenure-track academics were routinely publishing their translations under pseudonyms out of fear that their interest in work of this sort might count as a strike against them in their tenure evaluations. But now the MLA's new guidelines, co-authored by 2009 MLA President Catherine Porter and UCLA Professor Michael Henry Heim, translators both, not only enunciate a very sound rationale for evaluating translation work as scholarship but also offer practical guidelines for both the candidate under review and her/his evaluators. "Every translation is an interpretation," the document eloquently states; "each one begins with a critical reading, then expands and ultimately embodies that reading." The guidelines for reviewers draw attention to the different sorts of scenarios and objectives that might govern a specific translation project. Poems for a reading edition might be translated to preserve characteristic features of the source text ("rhyme, assonance, meter, imagery, and so on"), while a bilingual edition for language-learners might emphasize the semantic content at the expense of the poem's poetic devices. Translators of lengthy scholarly works, on the other hand, are sometimes asked by publishers to decrease the total word count, requiring the addition of "bridging material and clarifying information" as well as judiciously applied cuts. Most importantly, the MLA statement proposes that a translation in the academic context be understood as a contribution both to the scholarly conversation in a field and to the cultural and intellectual life of a a community.

Paul McCobb was in the profession of creating pure, unadorned pieces with exceptionally good bones. A Mid-Century designer who had his thumb firmly on the pulse of America, Paul McCobb's sheer breadth of work—from credenzas to chairs, clocks to tableware—is pure testament to his design's widespread accessibility. Of all Paul McCobb's pieces, it's the ones for his self-formed Planner Group (he also designed for Directional) that perhaps best capture his quiddity: make it good, make it smart—and above all—make it work.

The luminaire, removed from its visible trim, is built around a molded stainless steel housing and a glass carrier, which in combination with a high quality seal offer an IP67-protection rate. The frosted safety glass combined with and underlying louvre determine the colour and the depth of the Up in-Line.

Elton John: The Red Piano Trailer (2005)
12 December 2005 Music 99 mins
The Bitch is Back, indeed! One of the finest songwriters of the 20th century is well showcased on this DVD. The Red Piano's set list features some of Sir Elton John's best-known crowd pleasers and he delivers each performance with gusto. One can't help but get enraptured by his enthusiasm, and I found myself tapping my toes to a few tunes that I wouldn't even count among my favorites, ie: Benny and the Jets. There's something about seeing the songss performed live that makes them that much more engaging. Vocally, Elton is in excellent form, and though he modifies a few melodies (he doesn't hit the high notes like he used to - he leaves that to his back-up vocalists), his voice sounds rich and full.

"My first visit to the Renal Clinic - Thursday 16th"
About: Southampton General Hospital Southampton General Hospital Southampton SO16 6YD
Posted via NHS Choices
I attended the said clinic, following an unsatisfactory series of blood tests undertaken by my GP. Along with my wife, we were pleasantly received in Reception, who kindly guided us to the correct floor. On arrival at the Renal Clinic, we checked in and were welcomed by a very courteous staff member and they could not have been more helpful. We had arrived a little early, so they assured us that we had about 25 minutes to go back to the reception area for a cup of coffee. On our return, they made a point of collecting us from the main waiting area and took us to a small waiting area outside the consulting room, telling us that we were next in line. After about 10 minutes, were were ushered into a consulting room, where we were greeted by a doctor, who we assumed was a consultant working under our consultant. This doctor made us very welcome and encouraged me to outline the problems as I saw them. The consultation was very thorough and I never felt hurried or that time was at a premium. As such, I was very relaxed and comfortable, and was encouraged to ask questions. I was given another appointment for 6 weeks time, given that we have a 2 week holiday planned before then. I then went to the Phlebotic Unit, where we were at the end of a very long queue, but it progressed quite steadily, so after 15-20 minutes, I was instructed to the first cublcle on the right, where I had eight blood samples taken, but the phlebotomist was so proficient, it was all over in a few minutes. They were also very courteous and friendly. For a 1st visit to the Renal Clinic, I could not have been more pleasantly surprised by my experiences and strangely enough, I am quite looking forward to my next visit, where I am hoping for a positive diagnosis to my problem.

Johannesburg - A man was killed and six Impala Platinum (Implats) workers in Rustenburg were assaulted overnight, a mine spokesperson said on Friday."The police discovered the badly-beaten body of a man in the Freedom Park development," Implats executive Johan Theron said in a statement."He has not yet been identified, but items lying next to him indicate that he could be a contractor working at one of the shafts," he said.North West police spokesperson, Brigadier Thulani Ngubane, said the 54-year-old Mozambican was found murdered at about 06:30 on Friday, at the RDP houses near number nine Impala Shaft in Phokeng.Third deathThe death brings to three the number of people killed in violence related to an illegal strike at Implats."The SA Police Service condemns all the attacks taking place at Impala mines," Ngubane said.He said the man who died and two others, who were seriously injured, were attacked by unidentified people with knobkerries at three different locations while on their way to work.The injured men were taken to the Impala and Job Tabane Shimankana hospitals, he said. No arrests had been made.Theron said another four Implats employees assaulted overnight were being treated in the mine hospital.He said their families had been contacted and arrangements had been made for them to travel to the hospital.Criminal elementsTheron said Implats condemned the violence in the strongest possible terms. "It is totally unacceptable that criminal elements are taking advantage of an already volatile situation," he said.Workers at Implats downed tools over a month ago. As a result, about 17 200 workers were dismissed. Implats said they could apply to be re-employed, but the process has been hampered by violent intimidation."We are appealing to those on the illegal work stoppage to return to work in order for their grievances and demands to be considered," said Theron.The National Union of Mineworkers (NUM), Cosatu and Implats will meet on Friday afternoon to try to resolve the situation.Call to return to workImplats said dismissed workers who reapplied for their jobs would start afresh with the company and lose any accumulated benefits.However, the workers want to be reinstated without losing benefits.On Thursday afternoon, Cosatu general secretary Zwelinzima Vavi addressed the ex-miners and urged them to return to work.Theron said that by Thursday, about 8 500 people had been re-employed.The North West government said on Thursday that a settlement agreement had been reached between the NUM and Implats for the unconditional re-employment of dismissed workers.Theron denied this.Informal discussions"Yesterday was just feedback after the mass meeting and to try and say we are still committed to finding a solution," he said.NUM spokesperson Lesiba Seshoka said there had been informal discussions after the meeting indicating that Implats might consider reinstatement of jobs."Although the company did not commit to that, they indicated that they are quite willing to look at the issues of reinstatement... that was verbal though," Seshoka said.The illegal strike started when rock-drill operators downed tools over unhappiness that they had not received a retention bonus, while miners had.Earlier this month, Implats CEO David Brown said the drillers had refused to involve the NUM in addressing their issues, and that a new union, the Association of Mining and Construction Union (Amcu), was exploiting employee dissatisfaction in this regard. Implats Rustenburg was losing 3 000 platinum ounces a day, which amounted to about R65m a day in lost revenue.
Knobkerries? How last century.
You can take them out the bush but you cannot take the bush.........
rise of the planet of the apes...
Why does everyone say South Africans are so friendly? There's nothing friendly about this story, these people thrive on violence, rape and theft.
Worse than animals.....
Traditional weapons broe.... Thats important. Remember they have to scare off strangers. People from neigbouring countries do fist fighting I suppose.....
Yup, live in the past and will always remain in the past. That's why they can't think.
Vavi !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've had a dream! I see a dead people !!! ...with iPads
this was long coming.
Hi Thoka, why was all this long coming. Will be very interested in your response
FFS!!! Unions stop denying and begging and babying these thugs! If they dont want to work then walk away. Allow people who take their responsibilities of families etc to go and earn an honest living! The cops must start getting heavy handed and take no nonsense. This "third force" excuse is a load of cr@p. They are violent,killers and know the unions are going to side with them! The person who was murdered: his family should open a criminal case against the union and make them liable!Savages!
"Implats Rustenburg was losing 3 000 platinum ounces a day, which amounted to about R65m a day in lost revenue."....and 4 people lost their lives!!
Implats will recover but........the dead do not while the criminals walk free for now.
They are no more than mindless beasts – ALL OF THEM…!!!
Everything "they" touch becomes a f**k up..!!!
Dont be rude.... the people want more money and better benefits.They are working hard although they are fortunate to have a job. They want more money so that the prospects of more job opportunities are minimized drastically. This has been the modes operandi since very very long ago.
How can we blame them? They work so hard they forgot how to think. They dont like bread any more....they wat cake. They dont want pap any more they want pudding. They are not happy with a Volkswagen or a Valiant, they want a BMW!
Why worry about those hundreds of thousands that sit in towns all over on pavements praying for a little day-job just to get food on theirtable?
Strikers cannot calculate either. The money they loose while on strike in about ALL instances take litterally YEARS to make up, but do they understand it? No...they dont and the Union bosses will never put them wise either for then the Union will come to an end....
Still...they like to strike for then at least somebody hears the 'voice of the nation' and THAT is important. Never mind loss of life or a loss of income for the instance they expect to pay them more. What a mess and what a shame to work with ignorant, insane idiots and try to build a nation.
"The SA Police Service condemns all the attacks taking place at Impala mines," Ngubane said.
Another nugget of wisdom from one our Public sector spokesmen. For a second there I thought the police supported the violence. Thanks for clearing that up for us Brigadier.
A mine looses R65M a day, I wonder how much does the miner loose per day. Surely R 230,00 per day
The difference is the mine isn't losing anything, it's only delayed. The thugs that are on strike are losing it for good. Yeeehaaaah. Shows you what ignorance does.
This worker action could be the start of the end of our mining industry. Britain was being destroyed by strikes until the iron lady; Margaret Thatcher annihilated the unions and brought worker sanity back into Britain. The government will most probably stay on the sidelines as any action will make it unpopular with the masses and the prime minister and all his cohorts may have to jump off the gravy train. The unions will also be reluctant to not side with the workers, as they may affect the disgusting revenues the workers pay. The strike so far has cost Impala Platinum close to R 4.0 billion in lost income. Government will have lost a huge chunk of tax revenue. What the miners are asking for before deductions and tax, is an increase of salary from R6000 pm to approximately R 13000 pm. An increase of 225%. If the mines give in to this one, shrikes will erupt on nearly every other mine in the country. As the strike was totally illegal, and the law of the country backed the mines up 100%, Impala should consider all fired workers history and no longer employees. As such they will have no obligation what so ever to negotiate in the slightest with people not employed by them. For the future of all companies in this beautiful country, Impala must stand strong. Let the army come in and deal with these moronic monsters and illiterates to our economic stability.
This was an illegal strike, they were warned. Absconding? Benefits? Time to put the foot down...but big business will cow tow to the unions and next time it gets bigger and nastier. It's going to stop with the destruction of our industrial base. When the money runs out...people die of hunger.
It is unbelievable that the Implats management behave like victims. They are the ones who caused this problem by their divide and rule tactics and should be held responsible for their actions. Employers in SA are being treated with kids gloves and is time that the toothless government tighten rules to discourage them from abusing their employees. I am worried about racists comments on this website. This shows that people are not willing to change and this will create problems in the future if there is no integration of different racial groups in SA. Unfortunately our government is not doing anything to remedy the situation.
Lephutsi well said my brother. You have your head firmly screwed on the right way round my man. As the communists so eloquently said - all men must be equal no matter what each contributes to society. The humble unskilled worker and top management must have the same salary, irrespective that the MD has a doctor's degree in economics and business management. The workers standard one certificate must be considered completely equal. The workers look at the company's financial figures and decide that the company should never ever make a profit. It must only break even, but sharing profits equally amongst all its employees. Africans are the smartest economists in the whole wide world. Just a quick question that you must answer. A book I read by the historian and political expert, Meredith " Africa 50 years after independence and freedom from evil colonial rule" All 58 states in Africa were exhaustively studied with reference to efficient competent government, growth of the countries' economies, and overall prosperity and standard of living. 2 of all 58 countries were deemed to be better off now, than after independence. I anxiously await your comments.The unskilled mine workers want an increase in salary from R6000pm to R13000pm, increase of 225%. Impala had to close 14 shafts and have lost R 4 billion rand so far. Strike was illegal as 2 yr non strike period negotiated between Impala & Cosatu, along with agreed salary packages.Law 100% behind Impala.Blame rests on employer.
Put them in the ground !!!

UPDATE / 5.20pm: Telecom says it has now fixed the hardware fault that caused chaos on its network today.
The Mayoral Drive exchange network switch failure interrupted an upgrade to Telecom's prepay mobile service, which was rendered inaccessible. The upgrade will now be completed tonight.
Telecom has also confirmed that as well as hitting its own website, call centres, email and other services, plus some corporate customers, the fault also affected some residential broadband customers.
Chorus, which has systems housed with Telecom, says affected services are being progressively restored.
"Some of the internal systems are now restored, with other internal systems expected to be restored progressively over the next few hours," spokeman Ian Bonnar says.
Most of the phone services used by retail service internet service provider (RSP) customers to contact Chorus have been regained.
UPDATE 3.30pm: Network operator and wholesaler Chorus says it is currently experiencing some system outages as a result of the major network switch fault that's hit Telecom's giant Mayoral Drive exchange.
Earlier today, Telecom detailed how the fault had taken out its internal email, call centres and website, and stopped some corporate customers from web browsing.
Consumers were blocked from services such as MyTelecom and pre-pay mobile top-ups.
Chorus has some IT systems within the Telecom environment, the company says. It is suffering the following issues:
- Loss of some internal systems that are used by retail ISPs to order new connections or lodge faults
- Loss of some inbound phone lines used by our customers
- Chorus.co.nz is not working
- Loss of external email
Where possible, Chorus has put in place workarounds to minimise the impact on its customers, spokesman Ian Bonnar says.
Chorus has also put a special process in place to ensure medical or emergency escalations are dealt with urgently and are not impacted by the Telecom issues.
End in sight
Kate Woodruff, a spokeswoman for Telecom's Gen-i services division, tells NBR the company is going to issue another update around 5pm.
While there is not official time to recovery, NBR understands there is cautious optimism there could be an all-clear at that time. Telecom's home page is already back on line.
Corporate customers back online
Ms Woodruff says a minority of Gen-i's corporate customers were hit.
The key problems were loss of web browsing and inability to access Telecom's corporate helpdesk.
Web browsing was restored with a domain name server (DNS) re-routing workaround, the details of which were published to Telecom's Facebook page.
Most corporate clients were back to full service this morning.
"The greatest impact was on our own business," Ms Woodruff says.
With Telecom's own call centre, email system and website down, staff have used Gmail and social media to contact customers, as well as making proactive phone calls by mobile to check in on major clients.
Switch glitch hits Telecom website and call centres, corporate customers
9.30am: Telecom says many of its communication systems are down this morning due to a technical problem.
A spokeswoman told NBR, "We believe it's a problem with a network switch in Mayoral Drive," — the large exchange in the Auckland CBD that is operated by Telecom (Telecom retained control of several large metro exchanges post the Chorus spin-off).
The problem is affecting call centres, online services (including Telecom's website, MyTelecom and Live Chat) and internal Telecom networks.
Corporate clients are also affected by this issue, Telecom says, but it can't put a number on how many.
There is a workaround for those clients, which is being published by Telecom (a techical challenge, as NBR writes, given the problems have taken down Telecom's website and call centres).
All other Telecom customers can still call, text and use data, and 111 servcies are not affected .
There is no estimated time of recover at this stavge.
Telecom says this morning's problem is unrelated to a systems' upgrade that took place over the weekend.

Anyway, I pointed out a few postings back that the VRWC and SCLM have picked up on the draft campaign - as we knew they would - and are spinning away. The talking points:
- The bills to reinstate the draft were introduced by Democrats.
How true, how true. But the bills still sit and live in committee. The Democrats gave the Republicans a sword. The GOP had two choices - use the sword to kill the bills in committee (they didn't), or use the sword to slay their Democrat colleagues (which they haven't done either). Yep, the Dems created a 'poison pill' for the GOP. Either way the bill is exercised, it will be the fault of the GOP. It may not be pretty, but that's politics, folks.
- George Bush has never said he'd reinstate the draft.
How true, how true. But this is just the 'nuance' that Dubya disdains. Yet he's using it to nice advantage. As recently as this morning on ABC's This Week, Colin Powell, when asked about a draft, said (exact remarks) "There are no plans for a draft...uuuh...at least President Bush has no plans for a draft." As Brad Friedman of BradBlog points out, George Bush stated three times leading up to the illegitimate invasion of Iraq that he had "no plans for war on his desk". Apparently, nobody bothered to ask Bush if such plans were in a file cabinet under his desk.
John Kerry and John Edwards have both stated, unequivocally, that they will not reinstitute a draft. The Bush administration continues to use weasel words and non-denial denials when questioned about the topic. Demand a yes or no answer to the question: "If you are re-selected, Mr. Bush, are you prepared to state that under no circumstances will your administration reinstitute a draft of any sort? And that you will veto any such legislation that comes to your desk?"
Until Bush gives an unambiguous answer to the draft question, it's a very legitimate campaign issue - and given the Bush administration's history of playing fast and loose with the truth, we must operate on the assumption that there will, indeed, be a draft.
Keep papering cars and sending those emails.

text: Speck Alto Adige PGI is a dry-cured, lightly smoked ham (prosciutto in Italian), produced in South Tyrol, northern Italy. Parts of its production are regulated by the European Union under the protected geographical indication (PGI) status. In South Tyrol, speck was traditionally a farmers' fare, a source of energy during their work in the fields. Over time, it became one of the main courses in banquets for festivities and welcoming ceremonies. The latter function has reached our modern times, when speck, together with bread and wine, is served as the typical South Tyrolean "snack", offered as a sign of hospitality. Speck Alto Adige PGI is a unique product manufactured in a unique way. Its production protocol provides for the light smoking of salted pork hind quarters followed by an approximately 22-week-long curing period and the application of a special crust of salt that must never exceed 5% of the final product.


text: Rooted Droid 2 with Froyo 2.2 and 2.3.20 system update I rooted my Droid 2 using Doroot, installed Titanium Backup and proceeded to stupidly uninstall the Skype bloatware that Verizon and Motorola so thoughtfully put on all our Droids. Only later on did I learn that in order to receive OTA system and OS updates, one must have all bloatware present and accounted for in the /system/apps folder. Can I use the skype_mobile.live.apk file that I downloaded in a Droid X backup file, or does the Droid 2 use a different version? If I can't use the Droid X Skype file, does anyone know where I can get the Droid 2 Skype file? I'd like to be able to restore it without wiping the phone and reinstalling everything if possible. And yes, I have learned my lesson about impulsively uninstalling apps that come with phones, even annoying ones. Thank you for any help.

New robot set to take roles at Japan's Fukushima nuclear facilities
A new robot is set to take key roles at Japan's damaged Fukushima nuclear facilities and eventually protect workers from high radiation.
Remote-controlled robots that were revealed last year by Toshiba company are now ready to become operational at Fukushima's damaged nuclear reactor.
They are set to take action when Tepco starts its removal project. The robots' main task will be removing debris and spent fuel rods from reactor 3 of Fukushima's number 1 nuclear plant.
The robot features a crane, a machine to hold fuel and two robotic arms that will be directly in touch with the debris.
This means that dangerous tasks can be done without requiring workers to be present in areas with high radiation levels. Fukushima nuclear facilities have been struggling to handle radiation leakage since a disastrous meltdown in 2011.
