"uncaring doctor in a time great sadness"
About: Frimley Park Hospital (Frimley) Frimley Park Hospital (Frimley) Frimley GU16 7UJ
Posted via NHS Choices
Anything else?
my parter came in to the hospital after been told to after visiting our GP because they suspected she was having an eptopic pregnancy, and one the first scan the doctor we had was so inconsiderate and while my partner was laid the having the scan she turned round to us and just said " there is no heart beat the baby is dead here is some roll clean yourself up put your trousers back on! your ovures are fine though, how do you want to get rid of it" and expected an answer off us on the spot and was saying well then what do you want to do! as my partners was in tears. they way we were told was completely out of order i cant believe you let someone with that little compassion do something like this to a someone. i have complained to the hospital and on one has come back with anything and are just trying to brush it a side. i think my partner at least deserves a written apology off at least the doctor that did this to her it was so degrading and she is now left heart broken. we have been back for a second scan and had things explained better to us now by someone that actually cared enough about her to spend the time with us. the doctor that did this to us obviously didnt care about us, its hard enough trying to deal with what has happened never mind with someone like her. If nothing has happened in the next couple of days i will be taking this further, because this should not be able to happen.

MGMA 2014 Medical Practice Management Today Research
Good management is more important than ever
Implement and optimize use of an electronic health record (EHR) to qualify for the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act "meaningful use" incentive
Utilize your EHR to implement patient population quality measures such as chronic disease registries
Utilize your EHR to track the appropriate patient experience and quality measures proposed for Accountable Care Organizations
Exchange clinical information with other practices and hospitals
Adopt clinical and administrative technologies to improve patient care and service
Access measures (e.g., waiting times, 3rd next available appointment)
Process measures (e.g., HbA1c testing (2X) annually)
Clinical outcome measures (e.g., HbA1c in poor control)
Patient experience measures (e.g., CAHPS patient experience survey, patient satisfaction survey)
Patient safety measures (e.g., patient falls, catheter associated UTI)
Preventive health measures (e.g., influenza immunization rate, blood pressure measurement)
Utilization measures (e.g., 30-day hospital readmissions emergency room use)
Patient reported health outcome measures (e.g., SF 12 health status questionnaire)
The future competitive environment of accountable care will reward practices who have:
Lower utilization
Better quality
Better patient satisfaction
Better patient outcomes
Lower cost to the insurer
Which are the same factors that enable a practice to thrive in today's fee-for-service payment system
Good management will make the difference
It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.

It is not necessary to change. Survival is not mandatory.

State exchanges with federal oversight
Incomes between 133-400% FPL eligible for subsidies
Individuals pay sliding scale premiums capped at 2% - 9.5% of income
Would cover 2.3 million uninsured in CA (UCLA)
Would subsidize 45% of individually purchased private insurance in CA (CHIS calculation)
Would subsidize small lower wage businesses
Initial focus – individual and small group (50, then 100) markets – separate risk pools
CBO projects 25 million (nationally) would purchase through Exchanges -- over 3 million Californians
Source: HR 4872, The Reconciliation Act
New protections across entire market

Guaranteed issue and renewal (kids in 2010, adults in 2014)
Minimum medical loss ratio (2011)
Transparency in claims, costs, enrollment, etc. (begins 2010)
Standardizing administrative processes (begins in 2011)

Rating variation: age, geography, family size, and tobacco use
Risk-adjustment mechanisms
'Essential community providers' must be included in plan networks
Statewide cooperatives and national plans
Interim rate increase justification and regulation
Informed comparison shopping
Covered Benefits
4 benefits categories ranging from 60 to 90% of the actuarial value of the covered benefit packages (Bronze 60%, Silver 70%, Gold 80%, Platinum 90%), mandate tied to bronze

Prohibits annual/lifetime limits
Prohibits cost sharing for preventive services
Young invincible coverage:
Prevention and catastrophic coverage for those up to age 30 or individuals exempt from mandate due to financial hardship
Allows children to stay on parents plan until 26th birthday
Exchange subsidies vary by income, at least linked to 2nd lowest cost silver plan for those at a higher income level; individuals pay the incremental cost difference (Enthoven on steroids)

text: Statistical classification methods consisting of the k-nearest neighbor algorithm (k-NN), a probabilistic clustering procedure (PCP), and a novel method that incorporates outcrop-based thickness criteria through the use of well log indicator flags are evaluated for their ability to distinguish fluvial architectural elements of the upper Mesaverde Group of the Piceance and Uinta Basins as distinct electrofacies classes. Data used in training and testing of the classification methods come from paired cores and well logs consisting of 1626 wireline log curve samples each associated with a known architectural element classification as determined from detailed sedimentologic analysis of cores (N = 9). Thickness criteria are derived from outcrop-based architectural element measurements of the upper Mesaverde Group. Through an approach that integrates select classifier results with thickness criteria, an overall accuracy (number of correctly predicted samples/total testing samples) of 83.6% was achieved for a four-class fluvial architectural element realization. Architectural elements were predicted with user's accuracies (accuracy of an individual class) of 0.891, 0.376, 0.735, and 0.985 for the floodplain, crevasse splay, single-story channel body, and multistory channel body classes, respectively. Without the additional refinement by incorporation of thickness criteria, the k-NN and PCP classifiers produced similar results. In both the k-NN and PCP techniques, the combination of gamma ray and bulk density wireline log curves proved to be the most useful assemblage tested.

The man behind the MOTION PICTURE ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA's controversial push to ban the handing out of 'screener' tapes has resigned.
MPAA head Jack Valenti, 82, who oversaw the creation of Hollywood's movie-ratings system in the 1960s, will step down this summer (04), after celebrating 38 years in the hot seat.
He says, "I look at this with mixed emotions, because when you've done something so long, it's difficult to tear yourself away from it.
"In any job, you want to leave before people ask you to leave."
Valenti took the lead on a plan to ban award preview videos last year (03) in a bid to combat piracy.
Opponents sued, claiming such a ban would penalise smaller independent film companies, and the idea was scrapped.25/03/2004 01:59

This quick and easy version of the classic French sauce uses the microwave with great results!
If sauce separates after microwaving, add a splash of water and whisk until combined.
This is a great recipe which is very good the way they suggest you use it. This time however, I added a tablespoon of mayo before melting the butter and whisked it together before the heating step. It added some great creaminess that was lacking from the initial version and held it together more when spooning it over my eggs. WIN! - 18 Dec 2013 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
Honestly, this may not be quite as rich or smooth as the somewhat labor-intensive hollandaise sauce that I make, but it was pretty darn good. I did end up adding a little more lemon juice and cayenne to suit our tastes. I took the photo right when it came out of the microwave, and the butter had separated a bit. But all it really needed was a good whisk, and then the texture was spot on, and stayed that way. Served this on Ham Cups and Eggs, a recipe on this site. Thanks, scottki, we enjoyed your quick recipe. - 01 Nov 2013 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
I would say it needs a little longer in the microwave too depending on how hot the butter is being drizzled in. I like the 10 sec increments. - 01 Sep 2013 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)

Lindsey Costello and a gorilla at a zoo in Kentucky looked like two close friends with their heads almost touching when they were photographed enjoying videos on her mobile phone. Lindsey Costello even called the gorrila her friend... Read what she said after cut...
According to Lindsey, she was checking out the gorilla's enclosure at the Louisville Zoo in Louisville, Kentucky, when she noticed an older woman showing the beast videos of baby gorilla. The woman invited her to take over so she can show the ape more videos and she did.
Posting the image on Instagram Lindsey wrote:
"My new friend and I enjoy watching videos of baby gorillas."
To her delight, Lindsey said the gorilla even appeared to make it clear when he wanted to watch a new video – making a swiping motion with his hand.
'If the gorilla wanted a different video, he would pick up his arm and swipe over.
'If I turned the phone away from him, he would stretch out his neck to be able to view it. It was incredible!'
'Best way to spend my last day home. My heart is so happy. (sic) #blessed.'

The Nationals play their final home game of the spring today. The Mets will come to Space Coast Stadium. We may have some news today regarding the final few roster spots. For now, the Nationals are in their annual MLB security meeting, and the players on the bubble I was able to catch up with have not heard anything.
One roster nugget we do have: Catcher Adrian Nieto, whom the White Sox snagged off Class A Potomac in the Rule 5 draft, made the White Sox and will serve as their backup catcher opening day. Last year, one scout described Nieto as having a ceiling similar to Jarrod Saltalamacchia, perhaps with less power. The Nationals were deep at catcher, especially with Dominican Pedro Severino pushing his way into prospect status.
For today's game, second baseman Anthony Rendon, having recovered from a brutal chest cold, will play for the first time since Thursday. The Nationals' lineup will be close to that expected on Opening Day in six days, complete with Stephen Strasburg on the mound.

The Chicago Cubs fired a Wrigley Field DJ after playing an inappropriate song during Aroldis (aka "Cuban Missile") Chapman's appearance on the mound. The song "Smack My Bitch Up" by the Prodigy comes on the heels of a domestic violence controversy involving Chapman.
Chapman was handed a 30-day suspension by the Yankees after an alleged incident involving him and his girlfriend. He was accused of choking her and firing 8 bullets in his garage. Chapman was not arrested and no files were charged.
It was a thoughtless move, and the Cubs have since issued an apology. But it must be stated for the record that for every goofball move there is a grip of great intro songs that make them an entertaining part of sports.
Former White Sox third basemen Gordon Beckham marched out to "Seek and Destroy" and as a blossoming hitter it made sense; it's just too bad he never reached his potential. Slugger Lance Berkman walked out to Johnny Cash's "God's Gonna Cut You Down" which suited him well as he sent countless pitchers back to the minors with his Paul Bunyan swing.
Torri Hunter picked his song (Rick Ross' "Luxury Tax") specifically for the lyrics "I couldn't play baseball at all/And now everyday of my life I ball." And then who can forget Mariano Rivera strutting out to Metallica's "Enter Sandman," which was the perfect song because everyone knew that when Rivera hit the mound it was bedtime.
Sports and music are synonymous and it's only going to get bigger from here. Let's just hope that the next DJ that the Cubs hire will keep their head in the game.

General Category > Yeast and Fermentation
One Week Fermentation = Mistake?
<< < (4/4)
Thanks to both of you. I think this is the biggest hole in my understanding about brewing. By taste, do you mean the abscence of diacetyl, etc.? Or is it more that it doesn't taste like fermenting wort anymore and more like beer?
What I mean is that it tastes like something you'd want to drink. Yeah, it's pretty subjective. Start with that criterion, then take into account things that you know will age out or be removed, like diacetyl. You'll learn as you brew more.
It takes practice. A lot of practice and a few stinkers here and there to "educate" oneself. Despite other's advice I've, uh... tried various approaches and experiments and pretty much have figured out what works and what doesn't. Had to learn the hard way.
It does help to have a Carbonator cap. That way one can carb up a sample to see what it will actually taste like carbonated. I may be in a minority in this but have spigots installed in all my fermenters. This gives me the ability to draw off samples whenever I like, which is particularly useful when trying new yeast, temperatures and recipes. Again, once I've establish how things will behave I won't fiddle with the beer and leave it to do it's thang.
And quite certainly the brewer can have their beer ready to be drunk in less than a week. Just takes skill, knowledge and the right approach and criteria.

Though no one can know for sure, researchers have used anatomical clues to piece together what the voice of a Neanderthal may have sounded like. Because the throat of the Neanderthal was much shorter than that of a human, their voices were likely of a higher pitch. Pair this quality with a nasally component-Neanderthal's heavy skull and large nasal cavities would have produced a nasally sound in the voice. And they likely didn't speak at low volumes either. Given their large and deep chest cavities, the Neanderthal's voice was likely very, very loud with all the extra air support their bodies could handle.

"This brand-new series from Deveraux is off to a fantastic start! Set as a modern-day Pride and Prejudice, the formulaic story is a classic for a reason.

Video Review
Spin Genie now hosts hosts 156 slots and 15 casino games, most of which are available on their mobile site. Their collection brings together all-time favourite titles by Realistic Games, NetEnt, Microgaming and IGT. Although we usually harp on and on about casinos with hundreds of games, this well-curated small collection is worth fawning over too. There is good variety in there – blockbuster themes and casino classics, simple games and jumbo 60-payline games, casino table games too!
Better yet, the selection of games at Spin Genie just keeps growing. We're always surprised by what new titles they've added during every visit. Since the casino's launch in 2014, their games collection has more than doubled in size and has integrated titles from two new software providers. Spin Genie is constantly growing it's collection, meaning more choice for all types of players.

The game is testament to Spin Genie's innovation and it's growing in popularity everyday. You can read our full review to learn more about the game play, as it takes a while to explain!
Other Bonuses and Promotions
Apart from welcome packages, Spin Genie have tons of rewards for loyal players too. After your first deposit you'll unlock the first level of the Spin Genie adventure. As you play, you'll progress through the adventure, unlock loads more bonus cash packages and free spins. More info on the Spin Genie Adventure below!
Spin Genie are also a social bunch, and they run a lot of extra promotions through their Facebook page. Its handy to keep an eye on this for even more chances to win free spins and prizes.
Spin Genie accepts deposits via Mastercard, Visa, Maestro and phone bill (SMS) via Boku. If you are unfamiliar with phone bill payments, take a look at our guide to using Boku at mobile casinos. In a nutshell, Boku allows you to pay in seconds and without fussing with a bank account. These payments are added to your monthly phone bill or deducting it from your phone credit.
Do take note that there is a minimum deposit of £20 on the site. Also, the Deposit Match bonuses are only applicable to credit and debit card deposits.
Spin Genie's banking system is protected with industry standard security. They also store player funds in a segregated bank account that is managed and audited on a regular basis. There is also the option to view your wagers, transactions and withdrawal requests; another feature that classifies Spin Genie as a reliable gaming site.
Spin Genie issues withdrawals via bank transfer. (Read: no waiting around for cheques to arrive by post!) Spin Genie is staffed by an excellent customer support team, who accomplish the necessary account verification and withdrawal processes in record-breaking time. I contacted them via email to sort out my account verification, and they resolved it in a record 7 minutes!
There's a standard minimum withdrawal of £20, although Spin Genie do say that if you wish to withdraw less then get in touch with their customer support team and they're sure they can help out. Spin Genie also have no formal maximum withdrawal limit, but if you request to withdraw more than £10,000 you'll receive it in monthly installments.
Fun, Friends and Adventure
At Spin Genie, you will treated to much more than your regular casino experience. As the story goes, you'll follow Spin, the dog/ genie, as he guides you on a journey across the island. There are five exotic lands to explore – Paradise Springs, Crystal Cave, Misty Mountains, Grand Bazaar, Lava Lair and Precious Palace. Each land houses 5 levels, so there are 25 levels in total. Each level bears different prizes that are are more exciting than the last. The Spin Genie team also continuously releases updates and adds more levels, so you'll never run out of things to play.
What can you enjoy at each level? At some levels, players are invited to play exclusive bonus games, with the chance of earning real cash. These games are designed after popular mobile games. In Level 1, you'll fly Spin on his magic carpet to collect coins. You'll use your up and down arrows on your keyboard to direct Spin through obstacles and treasure troves. It's a true test of skill with real cash at stake! At the end of the game, the virtual coins that you've accumulated will be deposited into your account as bonus money. There is up to £10 to be won in Level 1! At other levels, you'll receive Free Spins and Bonus Funds.
Are the prizes worth it? I have yet to go very far on the island, but I have enjoyed my extra £20 at Paradise Springs. Each level is decked out with gorgeous custom artwork too. The Adventure isn't annoyingly hard to unlock either. For example, you unlock your first level by making your first deposit. Other levels are unlocked by wagering a certain amount in a game, or racking up XP Points.
If you want to know more about how the Spin Genie adventure and how it's changing the landscape of mobile casinos then take a look at our article about this site became a real innovator of gamification.
So What's Changed?
Since we first reviewed Spin Genie back in 2014, we've been keeping a close eye on the site. This is not only because it's been holding it's own at No. 1 in our Top 20 UK Mobile Casinos list, but because it's constantly redeveloping and changing so that it's players can expect the most up-to-date technology and the best experience.
Spin Genie now boasts a huge selection of games from different software developers. Initially we were disappointed with the small amount of games that were available to play on mobile, but we've been forced to eat our words as there's now over 100 titles available straight from your handset. The site's also been through a redesign recently, meaning those beautiful graphics are looking completely fresh and modern.
At the start of this year, the site also launched it's mobile casino app, which is now available for download directly through iTunes. The app retains all of the features available on the browser site, but ensures full optimization for your handset device. Being available on iTunes also marks this casino as something special as it means Spin Genie has passed stringent controls and it's an assurance of quality.
In addition, through featuring on iTunes and some well designed TV adverts, Spin Genie has grown dramatically in size. For instance, there's now over 30 million people playing their exclusive Slingo game through Facebook. More members is not only good news for the casino itself, but it's great news for players too as promotions get bigger and better, and jackpots soar.
Other Casinos like Spin Genie
Casumo– Casumo's adventure includes earning Valuables and Trophies. Its mission-and-rewards system is slightly more linear than those at Casino Room and Spin Genie, as you won't unlock new planets quite so often. The tasks are also slightly harder, although the prizes are much larger too. However, you'll get a kick out of accumulating badges and showing them off to other players on your profile page. There are 30 mobile games, as well as a deposit match bonuses for new players.
LadyLuck's Mobile Casino – If you were looking for another mobile casino that accepts phone bill deposits, head over to Ladylucks. One million players in the UK choose this site because of its unique games and frequent Facebook giveaways. It's a much smaller site than Spin Genie but it does have a charm about it and it's also got it's own exclusive Droid Slots promo!
Spin Genie is not just a mobile casino, it is a game in itself. The Adventure is well-designed, with some form of gratification and reward in every visit. It's not just brilliant packaging too; Spin Genie has all the elements of a great casino. There are good games, convenient deposits and speedy customer service. We're impressed with how far this casino has come since it launched and there's no doubt it our minds it will only continue to get bigger and better in the future.
Download the Spin Genie app from iTunes; available for iPhones and iPads.

Your Healthy Weekly Meal Plan is here: 5 quick and easy weeknight meals, all naturally gluten-free and dairy-free. Today I'm also sharing my goals for the barre3 Anywhere Challenge, so read on for the Plan and the goals!
This past week I've been enjoying reading many of your barre3 Anywhere Challenge goals on Instagram, which inspired me to share mine. If you're just looking for the Meal Plan, no problem. Go ahead and skip down and you'll find all the recipes, below.
My Goals for the barre3 Anywhere Challenge
1. Focus on Building Strength Instead of Losing Weight. I think I've done every single barre3 Challenge since they began and in the past my goal has always been to lose weight. I think the Challenge is the perfect time to kick it up a notch and focus on losing pounds and inches, and such a focus has worked really well for me in the past. Right now, however, I'm honestly a little burned out on the scale and the tape measure.
I eat well most of the time, workout regularly, and do the best I can. So my goal this time around is to worry less about weight and shift my focus to building strength. By the end of the Challenge I want to be able to hold a plank a little longer, do a few more pushups, and get a little lower in a sumo squat.
2. Make this My Summer of Fitness. Speaking of strength, my second goal is to make this my "Summer of Fitness." In addition to my regular barre3 routine, I want to amp up my outdoor workout. My goal is to walk and hike a total of at least 28 miles per week. My day job is pretty sedentary so averaging 4 miles per day is definitely a challenge, but it's one I can't wait to take on.
3. Maximize Work Time in Order to Play Outside More. If I'm very focused and efficient during my workday I can actually carve out a half an hour or so in the afternoon for a quick walk outside. My goal this month is to to be as efficient as possible during my work time in order to play outside more.
Okay, those are my goals. What are yours?
Now onto the Meal Plan!
vg: vegan | v: vegetarian | gf: gluten-free | df: dairy-free | p: paleo | ff: freezer-friendly
Slow Cooker Moroccan Chicken with Chopped Almonds, Apricots and Cauliflower "Couscous" from Against All Grain (gf, df, p, ff)
- While this is not a super-fast chop and dump slow cooker recipe, the extra steps required yield delicious results. I like making recipes like this during the weekend so we can go outside and then return home to a meal waiting for us.
- The cauliflower couscous is a tasty side, but any steamed veggie or fresh greens would work well.
Quick Sesame Noodles with Green Veggies from Real Food Whole Life (vg,v, gf, df)
- This fast, fresh meal will be ready in the time it takes to boil noodles. It's one of our favorite weeknight staples!
- I like to bump up the veggies to make sure at least half my portion is made up of green plants. This one is a hit with the family; check out the kid-friendly adaptations for tips on feeding resistant eaters.
Chicken Quinoa Burrito Bowls from Gimme Some Oven (gf, df)
- Use this recipe as a guide, making the parts you like and can manage. Swap the quinoa for greens to make these bowls lighter and grain-free.
- Omit the cheese to make these dairy free, and ditch the processed taco seasoning for a mix of your own spices. Think cumin, mild chili powder, and garlic powder.
Roasted Cauliflower and Chickpea Tacos from Two Peas & Their Pod (vg, v, gf, df)
- These tacos are a favorite in our house. If you haven't tried roasting cauliflower you'll be surprised at how delicious the process renders the vegetable.
- The yogurt crema sauce is a really nice way to top these tacos, but you can skip it to keep these vegan and dairy-free.
Mexican Shrimp Skewers with Corn Salsa from What's Gaby Cooking (gf, df)
- Hello simple weeknight meal! Add an extra veggie side and dinner's ready in minutes.
- Omit the cheese from the corn salsa to keep this dish dairy-free. If you want to use cheese and can't find cojita, feta will work as a substitute.

A suicide bomber struck a busy market in eastern Afghanistan on Tuesday, killing at least 89 people in one of the country's deadliest attacks in months.
The bombing in restive Paktika province, near the border with Pakistan, was a grim reminder of the ongoing instability in Afghanistan despite a U.S.-brokered agreement that has calmed tensions over last month's disputed presidential election.
Provincial officials said a suicide bomber detonated a truck packed with explosives in the Orgon district, about 20 miles from the Pakistani frontier. Police had identified the vehicle as suspicious and attempted to stop it moments before the blast, officials said.
Zahir Azimi, a spokesman for the Afghan defense ministry, said that more than 40 people were wounded and that the death toll was likely to rise as others remained trapped under the wreckage of shops. The wounded were transported to the provincial capital to be treated, he said.
Jan Kubis, the ranking United Nations diplomat in Afghanistan, condemned the assault, noting: "Today's appalling attack during Ramadan -- an occasion that should be observed in a spirit of peace and compassion -- should be condemned in the strongest possible terms and the perpetrators must be held accountable."
Paktika borders Pakistan's lawless North Waziristan tribal region, where Pakistani security forces launched a military offensive four weeks ago aimed at flushing militants out of the area. Analysts believe that many militants have escaped across the border into Afghanistan, where they are blamed for a recent sharp increase in violence coinciding with the Afghan presidential election.
A Pakistani military spokesman, Maj. Gen. Asim Bajwa, said Tuesday that more than 400 militants had been killed in the operation, but the information could not be independently verified.
Separately, a remote-controlled bomb hidden by a roadside in Kabul, the Afghan capital, struck a vehicle used by employees of President Hamid Karzai's office. Two staffers in Karzai's media department were killed and five others were injured, officials said.
In a statement sent to journalists, the Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack.

Frank Roche: Flynn a reborn Lily as Oz life fades
Kildare ace leaped head first when Adelaide came calling, but he's glad to be back home
Never try it and you'll never know. Kildare fans would never have got to savour last Sunday's opening goal in Mullingar if Daniel Flynn didn't have the ambition, instinct - call it what you will - to spy a fissure in the centre of Westmeath's defence and just go for it.
Flynn attempted something audacious ... the end result was something spectacular.
The Kildare youngster tried something else a couple of years back - a pro career in Australian Rules - but it just wasn't for him.
Never try it and you'll never know.
Flynn's failure to settle into his new life initially resulted in a leave of absence, in March 2014; he returned later that spring but then announced he was coming home for good the following January.
He is not alone. Westmeath's John Heslin and Dublin All Star Ciarán Kilkenny are two similar examples, albeit the Johnstownbridge man lasted longer than either.
Port Adelaide's loss should have been Kildare's gain, only for groin surgery to make last season a virtual write-off.
But now the 22-year-old is firmly back, re-embracing his old sporting life under a new manager (Cian O'Neill). On Sunday he'll be gunning to maintain Kildare's early Allianz League momentum with a second brace of Division Three points at home to Offaly.
Still, St Conleth's Park ain't quite the sun-kissed land of Oz. Does he still harbour the odd regret? "To be honest, I jumped at it," he says, recalling his original decision to go.
"Give the opportunity to any young man to go and play - I just leaped at it. I didn't realise … different country, I didn't know anyone, never played the game.
"Now, I'm grateful I went. I grew an awful lot as a person over the year there and was delighted to get away.
"But yeah, I would have a bit of regret about coming home - but at the same time I'm delighted to be home, I really am, and I've kind of put it to bed now.
"Ah still, it was nice waking up with the sun every morning!"
What was the biggest adjustment: a foreign land or a foreign game?
"Yeah, the game for a little while. But more a kind of self-belief, confidence thing, of belonging there and being there. That's what I struggled with the most," he admits.
"People say you're a big fish in a small pond and this sort of thing, and you don't have the same sort of confidence and you're kind of second-guessing yourself.
"That was kind of a struggle for me. But the game was very enjoyable. It was kind of like football with no rules, to be honest! That's what it was! It was a great game to play, I'd love to play it again."
Last year, on his homecoming, he was part of Jason Ryan's squad for a relatively fleeting period.
"I was meant to go last year (to America) but I didn't go. I had surgery last year on my Gilmore's groin so I couldn't go, and I decided to take the rest of the year out," he explains.
"I had the operation around April. Everyone thought I was gone away, but I didn't stir at all. I was inside in Johnstown working in The Hamlet!
"I played a couple of games with the club in the championship, but I hadn't done any football and was playing because it was the club - I wasn't fit really. So I'm kind of starting fresh, as of this year ... and it's good to get back in. Like you said, the last couple of years have been up and down and it's a bit of a focus, to bury my head in it and get back to normality. The college as well is helping."
A hamstring strain forced Flynn to sit out Athlone IT's all-too-brief Sigerson Cup campaign against holders DCU, but he had recovered just in time to be parachuted in for Sunday's league opener in Westmeath. Cue that remarkable solo run goal.
"You've a new manager, a whole new backroom team. We're getting very well looked after - we don't want for anything," he enthuses.
"Training is fresh, everything is energetic, there's a good buzz about the place. But there seems to be a good buzz about the county again, that we're kind of back."

Universal Pictures offers customizable selfies to promote Sing
Universal Pictures? newest promotion for animated film Sing is taking advantage of the power of selfies as a promotional tool.
The film studio is partnering with selfie mobile application Lumyer for the promotion. Consumers can take photos with audio and video clips from the film.
"Working with Universal Pictures' Sing is an incredible opportunity for Lumyer," said Diego Mortillaro, co-founder of Lumyer.
Selfie cam
Universal Pictures? Sing is the latest big animated film to hit mainstream theaters and the studio is going all out to make sure consumers are ready for it.
In addition to some high-profile spots, including a stint on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon where the characters sang Christmas songs, Universal is also bringing their characters to the smallest screen with an integration with Lumyer, a selfie app.
Lumyer lets consumers take and customize selfies (called Lumys), decorating them with images and other customization materials.
Lumyer is now bringing a sponsored suite of customizable options to its app branded with Sing messaging and imagery.
The Lumyer app provides customers with a way to add video and, most importantly for Sing, audio to their selfies. Customers will now be able to add a whole host of content related to the film to their photos.
This content includes music from the film as well as video and images of the characters.
The partnership comes after Lumyer landed the number two spot on Google Play?s top trending apps of the year.
Universal Pictures is cashing in on that popularity with this sponsored integration.
Sing it
While high profile ad spots are the norm for big properties such as films, it is becoming increasingly the norm for these properties to be marketed through more personal, mobile channels as well.
Sing is a perfect example of that, bringing its characters and music to customers? phones for organic user-generated content.
Other film properties have been working on similar premises.
Recently, Lucasfilm live streamed interviews and coverage of Rogue One through Twitter, bypassing traditional marketing channels and opting for a more direct approach (see story).
More similar to Sing, Sony Pictures recently made use of interactive Snapchat filters to promote its new Undeworld film Blood Wars (see story).
These types of promotions offer a good way for brands to market their films, which so often are promoted through more impersonal channels such as billboards and TV coverage, in a direct way, relating to customers personally and allowing them to make their own mark on the film in the form of customizable selfies.
These selfies also serve the purpose of being shareable, creating an organic opportunity for consumers to promote the film themselves by sending the selfies to their friends.
"The Lumys created will engage audiences and let them interact with the characters before and after the movie."

Spurs take gamble on Egypt's rebel without a pause
HIS reputation as an enfant terrible rivals that of a young Eric Cantona, but Mido's various controversies have not discouraged Tottenham Hotspur, who last night signed the Egypt and AS Roma forward on loan, subject to formalities.
Spurs, who have also acquired Mounir El Hamdaoui, a 20-year-old Holland Under-21 forward who has now pledged his international future to Morocco, permanently from Excelsior Rotterdam, may see Simon Davies go out of the other door as the transfer window nears its end, with Everton stepping up their interest in the Wales midfield player.
Mido, 21, fell out with Ronald Koeman, the coach, while playing for Ajax, and has also been banished from Egypt's international set-up after he persistently failed to turn up for duty. Tottenham now have…

NEW YORK --New York Yankees designated hitter Lance Berkman looked at Roger Clemens like a big brother when the two were teammates on the Houston Astros from 2004-06.
So Berkman was crushed after he learned that Clemens had been indicted by a federal grand jury on Thursday afternoon for allegedly lying to Congress about using performance-enhancing drugs.
"I hate to see that; I really do. Roger's a great guy. I hate it for him," Berkman said after the Yankees' 11-5 win over the Tigers on Thursday afternoon.
Andy Pettitte, who told congressional investigators that Clemens confided to him that he had used human growth hormone in 2008, declined to comment on Clemens on Thursday. Clemens told the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform in 2008 that Pettitte's assertion was inaccurate.
"I don't have nothing to say as far as the Roger stuff," Pettitte said.
Jorge Posada, who shared a clubhouse with Clemens from 1999-2003 and again in 2007, unequivocally pledged support for his former teammate.
"I support him. [I'll] be there for him," Posada said. "We're still very good friends and hopefully everything will be all right."
The catcher didn't want to speculate on how the grand jury indictment might affect Clemens' legacy.
"It's not important for me," he said. "I'm going to support him and I'm behind him and that's all I'm going to say."
Berkman, who played in the 2005 World Series with Clemens, said he would support the pitcher regardless of the federal grand jury's findings.
"I'm behind him one way or the other. If it comes out that he didn't tell the truth, I mean I still love him and I'll support him and would do anything for him if I could," said Berkman, who added that he thought Clemens belonged in the Hall of Fame.
Berkman said he'd last seen Clemens at the Astros spring training facility in Kissimmee, Fla. Clemens was in camp to be near his son, Koby, who is playing for the Astros' Double-A team in Chorpus Christi, Texas. Berkman was surprised at how well Clemens appeared to be holding up given the legal issues he'd been dealing with for the past two years.
"I don't know how he does it. I think I'd be a basket case," Berkman said. "But he does it, he's Roger, he's Rocket and that's just, that's how he is."
He added that the widespread abuse of steroids in baseball reflected poorly on all of the players who played during the "Steroid Era."
"That is just a black mark for all of us," Berkman said. "We're all tainted because of [steroids] and the quicker we can get all of this stuff in the rear-view mirror the better off the game is gonna be regardless of what's found out one way or the other."
Phil Hughes recalled Clemens as a mentor to the other young Yankees pitchers on staff in the second half of the 2007 season. He said Thursday's indictment didn't have any bearing on his opinion of Clemens.
Hughes did agree that it was "sad" to see Clemens' legacy affected by the legal proceedings of the last two years.
"It's tough because obviously everybody respects him for what he did and the fact that he has to go through this is tough for anybody," said Hughes, who earned his 15th win Thursday. "You feel for the guy but, you know, that's just the way it goes."

Surface Cleanliness The ability of a paint system to adhere to the substrate and resist corrosion is determined by the cleanliness and profile of the substrate. The use of GMA Garnet™ as recommended provides the following benefits:
Even Profile: The shape and size of GMA Garnet™ grains create an even profile of 50 – 75 microns* (controlled by blast pressure and air flow) to provide maximum surface area and number of peaks (reactive sites) for enhanced bonding. The use of GMA Garnet™ totally eliminates rogue peaks and troughs leading to a direct reduction in paint amount required and elimination of potential coating failure.
Low Dust: Lower dust emissions reduce cleanup after blasting and minimise contamination of the work area.
Improved Surface Cleanliness: There is almost no embedment on the substrate as the scouring action of the natural GMA Garnet™ grains remove all salts, corrosion and contaminants from within deeply corroded and pitted areas. It meets all international specifications for chlorides and silica (ISO 11126-10:2000).
* depending on the application
