BY half-past 5 on a morning in early May, the sun rising over Blackwater Pond had already brightened the pine woods. I stood in a wide natural path, carpeted with brown-red needles, that rises up the forested dune from the southwest side of the pond. In the high branches of the pines and beeches and honeysuckles, the birds were carrying on their racket warblers, goldfinches, woodpeckers, doves and chickadees. But on the sandy ground among the trunks, nothing moved. Perfect stillness. Could this have been where Mary Oliver had seen the deer?
She had written about them in more than one poem, but most famously in "Five A.M. in the Pinewoods":
I'd seen
their hoofprints in the deep
needles and knew
they ended the long night
under the pines, walking
like two mute
and beautiful women toward
the deeper woods, so I
got up in the dark and
went there. They came
slowly down the hill
and looked at me sitting under
the blue trees, shyly
they stepped
closer and stared
from under their thick lashes ...
This is not a poem about a dream,
though it could be. ...
If the deer hadn't been at this particular spot, they must have been no farther than a mile or two away, because this small patch of earth, a two-mile-long smattering of a dozen or so freshwater ponds on the northwest tip of Cape Cod, is where Mary Oliver, a Pulitzer Prize-winning poet who has a devoted audience, has set most of her poetry since she arrived in Provincetown in the 1960s.
She moved to Provincetown to be with the woman she loved, and to whom she has dedicated her books of poetry, Molly Malone Cook. As Ms. Oliver explained it in "Our World," a collection of Ms. Cook's photographs that she published two years after Ms. Cook's death in 2005, the two of them had met at Steepletop, the home of Edna St. Vincent Millay, when both of them were there in the late 1950s visiting Norma Millay, the late poet's sister, and her husband. "I took one look and fell, hook and tumble," Ms. Oliver said in "Our World."
Ms. Cook was drawn to Provincetown, where she ran a gallery and later opened a bookstore, and once Ms. Oliver was there with her, "I too fell in love with the town," she recalled, "that marvelous convergence of land and water; Mediterranean light; fishermen who made their living by hard and difficult work from frighteningly small boats; and, both residents and sometime visitors, the many artists and writers. ... M. and I decided to stay."
Before long, she had discovered the Province Lands, 3,500 acres of national parkland tucked away on the other side of Route 6 from Provincetown itself. The tract was named the Province's Lands in 1691 when the Massachusetts Bay Colony became a royal province as it absorbed Plymouth Colony and the land that had belonged to the Pilgrims (and absorbed Maine as well). This is not the Cape Cod of beaches and sailboats, shops and art galleries, but rather a small, shady and cool wilderness quietly teeming with life a geological and biological wonder that stands in relative obscurity on the Cape.
"Most people think of Cape Cod as beaches and ocean, but quite a bit of it is forested, and there are all types of different freshwater ponds," said Robert Cook, a wildlife ecologist for the Cape Cod National Seashore. This part of the Cape is relatively new land. It is made not of glacial moraine, as the rest of Cape Cod is, but of sand that eroded from cliffs farther south and was shaped into parabolic dunes by the Atlantic winds and currents. As this sand settled, ponds were formed in depressions in the dunes, and a rich deciduous forest mixed with stands of pine grew up from the sandy soil.
This is what the Pilgrims beheld in 1620, when they landed at the future site of Provincetown. The ponds and forests of the Province Lands are, Mr. Cook said, a small "undisturbed remnant" of Cape Cod's ancient past. Ms. Oliver's poems draw vivid pictures of all manner of life in this tightly contained ecosystem: blacksnakes swimming, foxes running, goldfinches singing, blue herons wading, and lilies that "break open over the dark water."
At Blackwater Pond the tossed waters have settled
after a night of rain.
I dip my cupped hands. I drink
a long time. It tastes
like stone, leaves, fire. It falls cold
into my body, waking the bones. I hear them
deep inside me, whispering
oh what is that beautiful thing
that just happened?
Follow Ms. Oliver's lead to the edges of Blackwater Pond and you can have something approaching a primal experience of Cape Cod. You won't be alone, especially in summer, when crowds gather to see the locally beloved water lilies that blanket the ponds. But that's why it pays to go at dawn, as the poet prefers to do. (Known to be a quiet, private person, Ms. Oliver declined to be interviewed or photographed for this article, saying she preferred to let her work speak for itself.)
Finding your way through her stomping grounds without a guide is not simple. Her 2004 collection "Why I Wake Early" is sold in the shop at the Province Lands Visitor Center nevertheless, and although she is well loved in Provincetown and sometimes gives readings at the town library, the rangers who were there on the day I stopped in had not heard of her. Nor had they heard of her beloved Blackwater Pond, which is not even marked on the Cape Cod National Seashore map.
This is especially odd, given that Blackwater is the only one of the ponds in the area that is encircled by a well-groomed and marked trail, the Beech Forest Trail. This can be reached by car, less than half a mile up Race Point Road from Route 6, on the left, and there is a roomy parking lot at the trailhead. Most pedestrian visitors to the Province Lands ponds confine their walks to this trail. But there are ways to get deeper into the woods and see the other ponds.
You can make your way toward Great, Pasture, Bennett and the other ponds to the southwest of Blackwater on the bicycle path, though on the May weekend when I was there, this was flooded and impassable by foot at some points. Also, there are a couple of very subtly marked fire roads leading into the pond area from Route 6, between Race Point Road and Route 6A to the west. (Driving west, you need to look closely for little openings in the trees where there are white signs that say "Conservation Area.")
Once on the fire lanes, you come across smaller paths leading here and there, dead-ending as often as not at a swampy edge of a pond, blocked by weeds and trees. If you can find your way to Clapp's Pond, you can take a footpath all the way around. But this is not easy to find; it's not marked on the park maps, and in the woods, it's easy to get lost.
"It's one of the secret places the locals know," said Polly Brunnell, an artist who lives is Provincetown and calls herself a pond walker. "Tourists don't know about it at all. I don't tell too many people about it. It's our townie place."
But even if you don't find a particular pond, the paths leading away from the fire road allow for a nice walk. The climbs are gentle, and in most places the sandy soil is so cushy you can go barefoot, which helps set the proper pace. You'd need to spend a long time here, probably several hours each morning for at least a year, to see all the life Ms. Oliver describes and the annual rhythms she chronicles cattails rising in spring, water lilies opening in summer, goldenrod rustling in the fall breezes and vines frozen in winter. Or you can simply take her poetry along with you for a long walk in the woods. Based as they are on her patient and scientifically informed observations, her poems allow you to see the deeper life of this little American wilderness.
Down at Blackwater
blacksnake went swimming, scrolling
close to the shore, only
his head above the water, the long
yard of his body just beneath the
quick and gleaming. ...
I carried a handful of paperback collections of her poems, and I also downloaded to my iPhone her hourlong CD "At Blackwater Pond," on which Ms. Oliver reads 42 of her poems, and listened as I sought out the places and creatures she describes. (Ms. Oliver herself has said that "poetry is meant to be heard.")
To follow in Ms. Oliver's footsteps is not to power walk, but to stroll and stop often to take in sights and sounds and feelings. As she told an interviewer 15 years ago: "When things are going well, you know, the walk does not get rapid or get anywhere: I finally just stop, and write. That's a successful walk!"
Once, she added, she found herself in the woods with no pen and so later went around and hid pencils in some of the trees.
In her back pocket, Ms. Oliver carries a 3-by-5-inch hand-sewn notebook for recording impressions and phrases that often end up in poems, she explained in 1991. In that same essay, she also revealed a few of the entries, including these:
"The cry of the killdeer/like a tiny sickle."
"little myrtle warblers/kissing the air"
"When will you have a little pity for/every soft thing/that walks through the world,/yourself included?"
After some hours in the quiet Province Lands, Provincetown itself, with its busy shopping and eating district, exerts a pull. I drove back into the town, parked on Commercial Street, and stopped at the Mews Café for brunch. Seated in the beach-level dining room, I watched the waves smooth the harbor sand while I ate lobster Benedict. Some of the other patrons walked through an open door into the breezy sunshine, where people were strolling on the sand. Ms. Oliver, who is 73, still lives on Commercial Street, on the eastern side of Provincetown, in a building that backs onto the harbor. She has described it as being "about 10 feet from the water" unless there is a storm blowing from the southeast, and then it is "about a foot from the water." A child of the Midwest, she grew up in Maple Heights, Ohio, outside Cleveland, where her father was a social studies teacher and an athletics coach in the Cleveland public schools. She began writing poetry at the age of 14, and in 1953, at 17 and just out of high school, she got the idea to simply drive off to Austerlitz in upstate New York to visit the home of the late Edna St. Vincent Millay.
She and Norma, the poet's sister, became friends, Ms. Oliver recalled in "Our World," and so she "more or less lived there for the next six or seven years, running around the 800 acres like a child, helping Norma, or at least being company to her." Eventually, she moved to Greenwich Village, and it was on a return visit to the Millay house that she met Ms. Cook.
From 1963 to April of this year, when her most recent book, "Evidence," came out, she has published 18 volumes of poetry, plus six books of prose; all but two of her books are still in print. Her Pulitzer Prize came in 1984, and in 1992 she won the National Book Award. From time to time over what she has called her "40-year conversation" with Ms. Cook, she or the couple together would go off to places like Sweet Briar, Va., and Bennington, Vt., where Ms. Oliver would teach poetry writing. But their home base was always Provincetown.
"People say to me: wouldn't you like to see Yosemite? The Bay of Fundy? The Brooks Range?" she wrote in "Long Life," a book of essays. "I smile and answer, 'Oh yes sometime,' and go off to my woods, my ponds, my sun-filled harbor, no more than a blue comma on the map of the world but, to me, the emblem of everything."
She does give some of her time to the sea, walking along the shore especially, it seems along Herring Cove, just northwest of Provincetown below the curled top of Cape Cod. She has told in her poetry of picking up an ancient eardrum bone from a pilot whale and has written about the whelks: "always cracked and broken /clearly they have been traveling/under the sky-blue waves/for a long time."
Herring Cove is a peaceful stretch of sand for a morning walk, one of the rare beaches on the East Coast that faces west. And it comes with two large parking lots. A stroll from the car northwest to where, the morning I was there, the ocean water was streaming onto the beach, and back, took about 40 minutes.
Another day, wanting a different kind of exercise, I tried my hand or rather, my feet at crossing the Provincetown breakwater, a half-mile-long row of enormous cubes of stone. The Army Corps of Engineers constructed this barrier in 1911 to keep shifting sands from the dunes out of the harbor. People of all ages were crossing with ease, it appeared, leaping in places from one angled surface of rock to the next. But once I got out a ways, I starting thinking about how long it might take to make it all the way there and back (it is said to take one to two hours each way, depending on your pace) and what would happen if I turned an ankle. The reward for making it all the way across is a walk on Long Point, a curving strip of beach less than two miles long, with lighthouses on either end, but I didn't make it.
At dawn the next morning, I was back in the woods.
Walking the trails, you may not see every sight Mary Oliver's eyes have taken in, but you will be hard-pressed to find anything she hasn't turned into verse. I thought of this as I watched a half-dozen little white butterflies flitting around the sunlit spots on a trail in front me, then looked through her books to see if she had written about them. Indeed, in the collection "Blue Iris," I found "Seven White Butterflies": "Seven white butterflies/delicate in a hurry look/how they bang the pages/of their wings as they fly . ..."
After a few days in the Province Lands, just before leaving, I stopped back at good old Blackwater Pond. Birdwatchers were quietly making their way along the Beech Forest Trail, stopping to aim their binoculars at orioles and black-throated blue warblers. I sat beside the water under a bunch of pines and opened Ms. Oliver's "American Primitive" to reread "In Blackwater Woods" and imagine this landscape in other seasons, when "the trees/are turning/their own bodies/into pillars/of light" and "cattails/are bursting and floating away," part of the cycle of life here that Ms. Oliver has watched so many times. Her appeal to her audience seems especially clear here her sharp eye, her tugs of emotion as she relates the outer world to a deeper interior experience:
To live in this world
you must be able
to do three things:
to love what is mortal;
to hold it
against your bones knowing
your own life depends on it;
and, when the time comes to let it go,
to let it go.
Most visitors drive to Provincetown, covering the length of Cape Cod on Highway 6 all the way to the end. Once you reach Provincetown in summer, however, parking is hard to find. An alternative, if you don't mind flying in a plane so small you may be asked if you'd like to sit in the copilot seat, is to take Cape Air from Boston. Tickets can be purchased through JetBlue or directly from Cape Air (www.capeair.com) for under $100 each way.
The Bay State Cruise Company (877-783-3779; www.boston-ptown.com) runs ferries to Provincetown from Boston. The trip takes 90 minutes, and round-trip tickets sell for $79.
The Province Lands have well-paved bicycle trails that take you though the woods, alongside the ponds and over to Herring Cove beach. Maps are available in wooden boxes along the trails and at the Visitor's Center on Race Point Road. Bicycle rentals are available at Ptown Bikes, 42 Bradford Street (508-487-8735; www.ptownbikes.com), and at Gale Force Bikes, 144 Bradford Street Extension (508-487-4849; www.galeforcebikes.com).
Enterprise Rent-A-Car has a small franchise office at the Provincetown Airport (508-487-0009).
The Watermark Inn, a beautifully designed hotel on the eastern end of Commercial Street, is quiet and has romantic ocean views (508-487-0165; www.watermark-inn.com). From late June to early September, suites range from $205 to $470 per night.
The Anchor Inn Beach House is a finely restored three-story inn with rates in summer from $195 for a "town view" room to $395 for one looking out at the waterfront (508-487-0432; www.anchorinnbeachhouse.com).
The Mews Restaurant and Café at 429 Commercial Street (508-487-1500; www.mews.com) serves dinner nightly from 6 p.m. and brunch on Sunday. Try the lobster Benedict ($17) at brunch.
Jimmy's HideAway (179 Commercial Street; 508-487-1011; jimmyshideaway.com), only two years old, is already loved in Provincetown for its congenial atmosphere. Eat at the bar, and you'll make new friends. Try the pork tenderloin with mango and cranberry gravy ($24).
Ciro and Sal's is tucked away down Kiley Court behind 430 Commercial Street (508-487-6444; www.ciroandsals.com). The downstairs dining room is a cozy, low-ceilinged and brick-walled place for a warm meal. Try one of the six classic Italian veal dishes, $23.50 to $36.75.
Provincetown's busy district of small shops and galleries clustered on Commercial Street is by the harbor.
At the far west end of town is Pilgrim's Landing, the place where the Pilgrims first had a look around the New World, in November of 1620. Across the street from the commemorative park is the beginning of the breakwater leading out to Long Point and its two lighthouses Wood End Light on the west and Long Point Light on the east.
The Pilgrim Monument is farther inland, in the center of Provincetown a gray stone crenelated tower 252 feet high. Climb the internal stairs and ramps to the top to take in the view (www.pilgrim-monument.org).
Some of America's best-known poets are identified with places where their experiences influenced their poetry. Here is a guide to tracing the footsteps of a few.
Mary Oliver: Provincetown, Mass.
In the Province Lands on Cape Cod, well-paved bicycle trails wind though the woods, along the ponds and over to Herring Cove beach, all areas explored in Ms. Oliver's poems. Maps are available in wooden boxes along the trails and at the Visitor's Center on Race Point Road. Bicycle rentals are available at Ptown Bikes, 42 Bradford Street (508-487-8735; www.ptownbikes.com) and at Gale Force Bikes, 144 Bradford Street Extension (508-487-4849; www.galeforcebikes.com).
In Provincetown, the harbor breakwater leads out to Long Point and its two lighthouses Wood End Light on the west and Long Point Light on the east. Amid shops and galleries clustered on Commercial Street, the Mews Restaurant and Café at 429 Commercial Street serves lobster Benedict ($17) at its Sunday brunch (508-487-1500; www.mews.com).
Emily Dickinson: Amherst, Mass.
Emily Dickinson spent all but 15 years of her life at the Homestead, her family house in Amherst, Mass., and managed to exercise an enormous amount of curiosity and creativity there. An avid student of nature, she did not romanticize:
A Bird came down the Walk
He did not know I saw
He bit an Angleworm in halves
And ate the fellow, raw ...
The house and her brother's house next door are now the Emily Dickinson Museum (280 Main Street; 413-542-8161; www.emilydickinsonmuseum.org). Hours vary by season. A 90-minute tour is $10, and a self-guided audio tour relates 30 poems to the landscape.
The nearby Jones Library (43 Amity Street; 413-259-3090; www.joneslibrary.org) regularly displays items from its Emily Dickinson collection of manuscripts, letters and documents. And from May 22 to Oct. 31, the Amherst History Museum (67 Amity Street; 413-256-0678; www.amhersthistory.org) is featuring the exhibition "Emily Dickinson's Amherst."
Amherst and nearby Northampton are strollable New England towns with bookstores, shops, cafes and several college campuses, including Amherst College, of which Dickinson's grandfather was one of the founders, and Smith College in Northampton, where the first reading in this fall's series at the Poetry Center (www.smith.edu/poetrycenter) will be given by Mary Oliver on Sept. 29.
Carl Sandburg: Illinois
The house where Sandburg grew up in Galesburg is a state-run museum (331 East Third Street; www.sandburg.org; 309-342-2361) open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Thursday to Sunday. From there, the traveler can follow him 150 miles to Chicago, his "City of the Big Shoulders" (which, in a less often quoted line, he went on to address: "They tell me you are wicked and I believe them"). On the North Side, the house at 4646 North Hermitage Avenue where Sandburg lived from 1912 to 1915 is a Chicago landmark, though visitors cannot go inside. Downtown, the 17-story building at 5 North Wabash Avenue housed offices of System, a business magazine where Sandburg worked as a copy editor and wrote poetry on the side. Stop for a coffee in Mallers Deli on the third floor of the building across the street (5 South Wabash) and immerse yourself in Sandburg's landscape of the old buildings while you listen to the rattle of the elevated train going by.
The gray stone apartment building at 54 West Hubbard Street was a courthouse where Sandburg worked as a newspaper reporter; old photos are in the lobby. Half a block away, at 420 North Clark Street, is Boss Bar (312-527-1203), a shot-and-a-beer kind of place that would have fit Sandburg's Chicago. And at the Chicago History Museum (1601 North Clark Street; 312-642-4600; www.chicagohistory.org) dioramas illustrate the city's progress from a frontier outpost to the gritty industrial powerhouse Sandburg described. One artifact of that era is the 135-year-old gate to the now-defunct Stock Yard, still standing at Exchange Avenue and Peoria Street.
Robert Frost: Bennington, Vt.
Frost wrote many of his best-known poems while living at the Stone House in South Shaftsbury on Route 7A near Bennington from 1920 to 1929 and paying close attention to the world around him there.
Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
The house, on seven wooded acres, is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday (802-447-6200; www.frostfriends.org; admission $5). Frost's grave is in Bennington, at the cemetery of the First Congregational Church, usually called the Old First Church; the marker is inscribed with his words "I had a lover's quarrel with the world." Bennington is a charming place with well-preserved old houses in styles from Federal to Queen Anne and with Tiffany glass and works by Grandma Moses in the Bennington Museum. It's not difficult to imagine Frost strolling along Monument Avenue, near the 306-foot stone obelisk commemorating a battle in the Revolutionary War.

Christopher's Table Wins Best Chef Award from Beverly BootstrapsPosted: March 6th, 2013 | Author: JR | Filed under: Event, News | Tags: Alchemy, Best Chef 2013, Beverly Bootstraps, Chianti Tuscan Restaurant, Christopher DeStefano, Christopher's Table, Danversport Yacht Club, Fibber McGees | No Comments »
It was a great night for a great cause—we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves at Monday night's Best Chef 2013 event to benefit Beverly Bootstraps.
We started by perusing the gorgeous silent auction items, then made our way around to each of the food offerings from various North Shore purveyors, caterers, and restaurants. One of favorite tables, Timothy S. Hopkins Catering, ended up winning the people's choice award. We loved their tiny lobster pastries and delicious toffee-chocolate mousse cups.
The variety on offer was terrific, including smoked mahi ceviche shooters from Red Lulu, healthy grain dishes from Life Alive, and seared tuna on crispy tortillas from Not Your Average Joe's. There was plenty of food, too, allowing us to go back for seconds and thirds of our favorites.
As the four chefs competing for Best Chef title prepared their entrées, the live auction got going, with much fanfare. The entire event was extremely well thought out and ran smoothly from start to finish. The Best Chef contestants were Christopher's Table (Ipswich), Fibber McGees (Beverly), Alchemy Cafe and Bistro (Gloucester) and Chianti Tuscan Restaurant (Beverly).
The contestants used ingredients from the Beverly Bootstraps pantry as 75% of their ingredients, with 25% coming from their own kitchens. They were judged on taste, appearance, and the originality of the use of pantry items by Eliana Hussain of the Cambridge School of Culinary Arts, Sam Hunt of Wild Horse Café, and Paul Guanci of Super Sub Shop of Beverly.
The chef's creations were wildly imaginative, including goldfish-encrusted spam cooked sous vide from Alchemy and a chicken pot pie with crust made from pumpkin bread mix and Bisquick. But the beautifully plated pho from Christopher's Table was the judge's winner. It featured ramen noodles in a broth flavored with peanuts, cilantro, and lime, plus a spring roll accompanied by a hoisin sauce made with grape jelly.
It was such a pleasure to see the North Shore turn out for this sold-out, fun-filled event!

David Hasselhoff Gossip
David Hasselhoff gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
Smutty Social Media, March 24, 2016
Look at this ridiculousness. #notthegriswalds Full Story
Don't question
Just... enjoy. I am not exactly sure WHY the Hoff was performing in London at G-A-Y the other night. I just know that this is a gift. And that sometimes you don't question gifts, you just accept them, enjoy them in your own personal way, and then resume facing the hardships of life. Please also note that David Hasselhoff wears his pants better than Jessica Simpson's golddigging Kevin Federline Eric Johnson. Full Story
How a real man poses
What? You mean this isn't doing it for you? How can you not get hard for that straddled-led side-lean he's working here? Not to mention the double finger pump. That pretty much has me cresting. Photos from Daniel Deme/WENN.com Full Story
The Hoff at the Brits!
Don't ask me why he's there. Don't even bother sending me whatever explanation about a movie or a tv show or some dvd or even worse, a new album. I don't care. There is only one reason The Hoff ever shows up anywhere and that is it to provide the cheese. Don't ask me who he has with him. Full Story

The art of medicine: Heart, head and hands
Dirk Hagemeister
PO Box 6299 Rustenburg firstname.lastname@example.com
To the Editor: Your editorial1 in the SAMJ, and Dr Sanders' response,2 evoked an interesting discussion about whether 'evidence-based medicine' (EBM), based on randomised controlled trials (RCTs), can answer all our needs in medicine. Medicine (for me) is a profession that requires the practitioner's heart, brain and hands.
The 'scientific brain' is sometimes under-represented in medical discussions (I would not dare to guess how many undergraduate medical students or graduates aren't properly able to interpret data). It is obviously not enough to perform medicine only with the heart - we need proper scientific and mathematical skills - otherwise voodoo-like approaches to the HIV/AIDS pandemic (beetroot, sweet potatoes, etc.) should not surprise us. Medicine needs a properly regulated course of training, registration and a sound scientific approach towards acquiring the knowledge that can be applied to individual patients. Western medicine has gone a long way to arrive at this point.3,4
But this theoretical and structural framework comes at a price. An undeniable and already clearly recognised shortfall in this type of modern 'Western' medicine is its tendency to reduce humans ontologically to a 'manifestation of general biological, psychological and sociological theories'.5 The 'patient' is no longer perceived as a unique entity with an incomprehensible depth of being. Instead, the 'suffering other' is converted into a 'case'.
The theoretical concept underlying RCTs is the fundament of this reductionist approach: Patients, diseases and therapies must be strictly categorised and inclusion and exclusion criteria defined.6 RCTs play an important and indispensable role in EBM; for methodological reasons, no reliable statement can be made about the usefulness ('effectiveness') of a given drug or intervention without RCTs. But ought the practice of EBM to be as reductionist as RCTs? Should patient care merely consist of the proper categorisation of the patient according to identifiable attributes and then the application of the most appropriate algorithm-determined therapy? There is more to EBM than statistical evidence: 'The practice of evidence-based medicine means integrating individual clinical expertise with the best available external clinical evidence from systematic research'.7 Physicians need to understand that the art of medicine consists of more than pure reason.8,9 We have to live with our fears and frustrations and the limitations of our medical skills, which we have to communicate to our patients. 'Take this antibiotic' is easy to communicate; but 'I don't know what you are suffering from', 'There is no known cure for your disease' or 'Your child is likely not to regain consciousness' are more challenging; they challenge the physician as a human being. 'I don't know' and even 'I have failed', which is part of every human life, need to be recognised as a fundamental part of modern medicine, in the same way as RCTs are recognised.
I close with the third body-component. Hearts and brains are needed in medicine (as stated), but so are the hands - an undeniable experience for somebody who studied at a theory-loaded and practice-deprived European medical school and was later confronted with the 'hands-on' practice of South African medicine.

TonyAppirio necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 59 diseños de 8 diseñadores freelance.
Appirio: Un-named Client
We are a global recruiting firm with many different practice areas. We primarily recruit for clients in financial services with a focus on the investment management industry but are continually expanding our client base to include high performance companies from various industries. We would like to use our website as a marketing tool for clients. It is also heavily trafficked by candidates so we need to have an easy to use registration and job board to attract the active and passive job seeker.
We need a new design for our homepage and front end pages that is clean, sophisticated and professional. Our current site is very saturated and we want the new site to be lighter and easier to read and navigate.
2 Core Audiences:
Clients – top executives from top firms in their industry, very professional and savvy, also very busy so they need to be able to get to the most important information to them quickly. Clients are mostly highly educated and from a finance background so that general feeling.
Candidates – active and passive job seekers, all ages, all industries, site needs to be appealing. Our clients demand top talent so site should have an air of sophistication to be taken seriously by the candidate.
We need the website to be easy to navigate for both audiences. Our candidates are required to register with a username and password so there needs to be a candidate login section in a prominent area on all pages.
The most important thing is to strike a balance between the two audiences visiting our site: potential clients who need to view us as experts in our field and gain confidence in our service (website used as a marketing tool) and our candidates who need easy access to the job board and a simple way to view job descriptions (attractive to active and passive job seekers).
We like the idea of a header and footer navigation scheme with the header tabs being the most important. Content in the middle should be kept simple.
Color Scheme – We are open to 2 color schemes: navy/white and black/silver/white and would like to see samples of both before deciding. We need the colors to be slick and professional. We have included a sample of our logo – Ignore the font used on the sample logo and the royal blue color; use the colors identified above to design.
Font – no preference. Clean and easy to read is the only requirement.
Pictures/Graphics – we do not want the images to detract from the content. We obviously want design elements but the use of photos/images should be kept to a minimum.
What we would like to see:
Homepage – we have discussed a very simple landing page (http://www.cravath.com), with our logo
Subpages focused on the audience (perspective clients vs. candidates).
Sites we like:
http://www.cravath.com (homepage is great everything else too simple)
http://www.pamelaeinarsen.com (business is photography so not totally applicable – we would have text instead of photographs but like the look, very clean)
http://www.linkedin.com (easy to navigate, not sophisticated enough for us)
Sites we don't like:
http://www.kornferry.com (too busy, cant identify information important to me easily)
Included is a full reqs doc for more detail if needed.

What is the most important information I should know about glipizide?
You should not use glipizide if you are in a state of diabetic ketoacidosis (call your doctor for treatment with insulin).
What is glipizide?
Glipizide is an oral diabetes medicine that helps control blood sugar levels by helping your pancreas produce insulin.
Glipizide is used together with diet and exercise to treat type 2 diabetes.
Glipizide may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before taking glipizide?
You should not use this medicine if you are allergic to glipizide, or if you are in a state of diabetic ketoacidosis (call your doctor for treatment with insulin).
To make sure glipizide is safe for you, tell your doctor if you have:
- liver or kidney disease;
- chronic diarrhea or a blockage in your intestines;
- an enzyme deficiency called glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency (G6PD);
- a disorder of your pituitary or adrenal glands;
- a history of heart disease; or
- if you are malnourished.
Certain oral diabetes medications may increase your risk of serious heart problems. However, not treating your diabetes can damage your heart and other organs. Talk to your doctor about the risks and benefits of taking glipizide.
It is not known whether glipizide will harm an unborn baby. Similar diabetes medications have caused severe hypoglycemia in newborn babies whose mothers had used the medication near the time of delivery. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant while using this medication.
It is not known whether glipizide passes into breast milk or if it could harm a nursing baby. Tell your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.
How should I take glipizide?
Follow all directions on your prescription label. Your doctor may occasionally change your dose to make sure you get the best results. Do not take this medicine in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended.
Take glipizide 30 minutes before a meal. If you take glipizide once daily, take it 30 minutes before breakfast.
Glipizide extended-release (Glucotrol XL) should be taken with breakfast.
Do not crush, chew, or break an extended-release tablet. Swallow it whole.
Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) can happen to everyone who has diabetes. Symptoms include headache, hunger, sweating, confusion, irritability, dizziness, or feeling shaky. Always keep a source of sugar with you in case you have low blood sugar. Sugar sources include fruit juice, hard candy, crackers, raisins, and non-diet soda. Be sure your family and close friends know how to help you in an emergency.
If you have severe hypoglycemia and cannot eat or drink, use a glucagon injection. Your doctor can prescribe a glucagon emergency injection kit and tell you how to use it.
Also watch for signs of high blood sugar (hyperglycemia) such as increased thirst, increased urination, hunger, dry mouth, fruity breath odor, drowsiness, dry skin, blurred vision, and weight loss.
Check your blood sugar carefully during times of stress, travel, illness, surgery or medical emergency, vigorous exercise, or if you drink alcohol or skip meals. These things can affect your glucose levels and your dose needs may also change. Do not change your medication dose or schedule without your doctor's advice.
Your blood sugar will need to be checked often, and you may need other blood tests at your doctor's office.
Some forms of glipizide are made with a shell that is not absorbed or melted in the body. Part of the tablet shell may appear in your stool. This is a normal side effect and will not make the medication less effective.
Glipizide is only part of a treatment program that may also include diet, exercise, weight control, blood sugar testing, and special medical care. Follow your doctor's instructions very closely.
Store at room temperature away from moisture, heat, and light.
What happens if I miss a dose?
Take the missed dose 30 minutes before your next meal, then return to your regular schedule. Skip the missed dose if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose. Do not take extra medicine to make up the missed dose.
Use glipizide regularly to get the most benefit. Get your prescription refilled before you run out of medicine completely.
What happens if I overdose?
Seek emergency medical attention or call the Poison Help line at 1-800-222-1222. A glipizide overdose can cause life-threatening hypoglycemia.
Symptoms of severe hypoglycemia include extreme weakness, blurred vision, sweating, trouble speaking, tremors, stomach pain, confusion, and seizure (convulsions).
What should I avoid while taking glipizide?
Avoid drinking alcohol. It lowers blood sugar and may interfere with your diabetes treatment.
If you also take colesevelam, avoid taking it within 4 hours after you take glipizide.
What are the possible side effects of glipizide?
Get emergency medical help if you have signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficulty breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Call your doctor at once if you have:
- easy bruising or bleeding (nosebleeds, bleeding gums), feeling tired or short of breath, rapid heart rate;
- nausea, upper stomach pain, itching, loss of appetite, dark urine, clay-colored stools, jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes);
- pale skin, fever, confusion; or
- throbbing headache, severe nausea and vomiting, fast or pounding heartbeats, sweating or thirst, feeling like you might pass out.
Common side effects may include:
- mild nausea;
- diarrhea, constipation;
- dizziness, drowsiness; or
- skin rash, redness, or itching.
This is not a complete list of side effects and others may occur. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.
What other drugs will affect glipizide?
You may be more likely to have hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) if you take glipizide with other drugs that can lower blood sugar, such as:
- exenatide (Byetta);
- probenecid (Benemid);
- aspirin or other salicylates (including Pepto Bismol);
- a blood thinner (warfarin, Coumadin, Jantoven);
- sulfa drugs (Bactrim, SMZ-TMP, and others);
- a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI); or
- insulin or other oral diabetes medications.
This list is not complete, and many other medicines can increase or decrease the effects of glipizide on lowering your blood sugar. This includes prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal products. Tell your doctor about all medicines you use, and those you start or stop using during your treatment with glipizide. Not all possible interactions are listed in this medication guide.
Remember, keep this and all other medicines out of the reach of children, never share your medicines with others, and use this medication only for the indication prescribed.

Central City hotels and lodging
Our favorite casino hotel in Central City is the newly remodeled
Reserve Casino & Hotel
, but if you prefer more of a relaxing get-away that is still close to the casinos, we suggest
Hoopers Homestead
, which even includes an outdoor hot tub to enjoy the Colorado night sky. If all the rooms in Central City are filled up (which actually
happen from time to time) we suggest trying the
hotels in Black Hawk
Our site provides information on every casino in Central City including:
employment opportunities
and contact information. We also provide all the relevant gaming information for each gaming establishment including the number of slots, poker tables, roulette, craps, etc. There is even a
message board
specifically designated for each casino at our sister site the Colorado Gambling Forum.
Central City - The Beginning
It was on May 6, 1859, John H. Gregory located, staked, and pre-empted the first mining claims in what was to become known as the "Richest Square Mile on Earth."
This spot, marked by the Gregory Monument, is near the city limits of Central City and Black Hawk. The area was originally called Gregory's Diggings, but very soon became known as Mountain City. Click this link to find more information regarding the
history of Central City, Colorado
, which is quite interesting! Did you know Central City nearly became the Colorado state capital? It is also home to the
Gilpin County Museum
Teller House
and the world famous
Central City Opera
Central City Casinos & Gambling
Let us be your guide through the casino lined streets of Central City, Colorado where you will find this historic location more or less intact - minus the brothels and gun fights. But you'll still find a lot of wild gamblers these days.
The Reserve Hotel & Casino - Central City
How casinos came to Central City
In 1991 Colorado voters passed a bill legalizing limited stakes gambling in three historic gold mining districts around Colorado:
Black Hawk
Central City
Cripple Creek
. Bets were originally limited to $5 max bet, but in 2008 a new bill passed allowing the casinos to take up to $100 per bet, offer craps and roulette and stay open 24 hours a day. This has definitely given Denver gamblers even more reason to make the travel to Central City, and the towns have surged because of it.
So, as you might expect, Central City is full slot machines, video poker, live blackjack, craps, roulette and poker; all in historic buildings of course! - oh, except the new mega casinos that in some cases mountains were moved to construct. So while the original idea was to protect the towns from becoming ghost towns, the gaming craze has definitely caught on and history is being written, again. By the way, we aren't trying to downplay the historically redone buildings, they are fabulous - just check out the
Crystal Palace
or a small sampling of the interior of some of these casinos. Crystal Palace is one of the newest casinos to open in Central City.
Central City has eight fabulous casinos:
Crystal Palace Casino
Century Casino & Hotel
Doc Holliday
Dostal Alley
Easy Street
Famous Bonanza
Johnny Z's
, and
The Reserve Hotel & Casino
. According to the Colorado Division of Gaming there are exactly 2,246 slot machines, 26 poker tables, 11 blackjack tables, 4 craps tables and 4 roulette tables across all of the casinos in Central City. Poker players: to save you some time if you want to get in serious poker games, head to The Reserve or Century Casino.
Central City is definitely more in its original state than Black Hawk and is a refreshing change if you want a break from the crowds. (If you're not from the area,
Black Hawk
borders Central City and the casinos are separated by less than a mile. Don't forget to visit the
Dostal Alley Casino & Brewpub
which serves excellent micro-brew beers along with great Italian food downstairs.
Hotels in Central City
If you need a place to stay we have a few
casino hotels
now (use the form at the top of this site to find best rates over all the hotels in your date range). We have
Century Casino & Hotel
which is the newest large casino hotel in town, and
The Reserve Casino Hotel
which used to be called Fortune Valley.
Johnny Z's Casino
has rooms too, but I think you have to be a regular to get them.
Hoopers Homestead
is also a popular favorite. It isn't attached to a casino but it has it's own perks (like an outdoor hot tub to soak in and view the stars).
Central City, Colorado in conclusion
You will find Central City casinos a fun experience if you are a slots player. Poker players shoudl immediately head to The Reserve Casino or Century Casino to catch a game. There is also
Black Hawk
. There is no smoking in the casinos anymore (any town). Most of the casinos will give you drinks for free if you are an active player. Make sure to tip your valets, wait and casino staff!

Online gambling and internet poker rooms
There are many ways to qualify for poker tournaments and one of the most popular ways is now at online poker rooms. Online poker is not legal in all locations, so you need to check with your local law enforcement authorities before playing.
Although this page is not about any specific online casino, we are including it here because it does advertise some of the more
trusted casinos
out there. It has a great black jack strategy page that is just as good in the land based casinos of Colorado as it is online. We also recommend all online casino players to be cautious when depositing money onto a casino site.
It is your responsibility to make sure its legal to play online in your local area.
Always make sure you know the laws first before you play. We are not responsible for your actions after leaving our site.
Cool video tour of Central City, CO
This is an
neat video of Central City
that shows the layout of the town and its casinos coming in on the Central City Parkway. If you are in a public place, you may wish to turn down the volume before starting this video. This is a great way to get a real feel for the city.
Reserve Casino & Hotel
We're not going to lie to you - lodging is limited in Central City, but what we lack in quantity we make up for in quality and the most bang for the buck. In fact many Black Hawk dwellers book their rooms here. (Starting at only $69.00 - why not??).
Hoopers Homestead
This is a jewel of a place - completely disconnected from the casino world, yet only a small walk away from them (for active adults) - plus this is more than a room, its a bed & breakfast with an outdoor hot tub to enjoy the night in, light breakfast is served in the morning and friendly hosts. Much more, check the details page.
Central City Opera video
If you've never been to an opera or wondered what the big deal about the Central City Opera was, here is an
excellent video
to get your taste buds wet. This one is a glimpse from
Central City Opera
in the 2001 North American premiere production of GLORIANA by Benjamin Britten.

If you are interested in the history of this casino town and Black Hawk this is the place to get informed (however it covers the entire county).

Summer Fest in Central City
The biggest party of the year in Central City is probably Summer Fest with lots of festivities outside the casinos including live music and lots of food! It's a close call though wiht Lou Bunch Day festivities being pretty big also.
Central City's two faces
There are two sides to Central City, although it is all growing closer together as the bigger casinos continue to grow towards the historic buildings. By two sides we mean the two casinos housed in newer modern construction and the casinos inhabiting historic and reonovated buildings. In Central City (unlike Black Hawk) the casinos housed in historical buildings out number the larger casinos, the
Reserve Hotel Casino
Century Casino Hotel
Unfortunately not all of the historic buildings are being used right now with a lot of really nice real estate up for sale. For want-to-be casino owners, this is a great place to start up a casino with gaming real-estate not being that outrageously priced and the potential rewards could be great! There are a fair amount of good deals for gaming companies to take advantage of, but the slots are filling up and we believe that in not too many years the entire downtown area will be wall to wall casinos.
There are more casinos in the other direction, (namely the old Tollgate building, now Century Casino) and the Famous Bonanza. Also up that way around the corner is Johnny Z's. In this direction you see the corner of Dostal Alley, Crystal Palace, Doc Holliday and Easy Street.
Here is the old historic part of Black Hawk. Many of the old buildings here have been converted into casinos. These casinos are modern on the inside though, so don't be fooled. There is a more old mining town feeling to this section of town. This is where you'll find

Central City Colorado - how it happened
News of the strike reached Denver by May 17th. First publication of this was in the May 28, 1859 issue of the Rocky Mountain News. As of May 23rd, there were a total of 14 claims in the gulch.
In the June 11, 1859 issue of the Rocky Mountain News the following item appeared:
"When we entered the diggings on the 20th of May, there were about twenty men in that vicinity, only two quartz leads had been opened and but three claims on one of those and two on the other. In two weeks from that time more than 3,000 men were at work, at least thirty leads satisfactorily prospected, and several hundred claims opened and profitably worked."
By the middle of July 1859, between 20,000 and 30,000 people were living in and around Gregory Gulch.
From 1859 through 1866, Central City was the most important town in Colorado Territory. Cenral City became the county seat when Gilpin County was organized in 1861. The Territorial legislature granted a City Charter to the City of Central in March 1864. This was 12 years before Colorado achieved statehood in 1876.
There are two popular stories about how Central City was named. One story involves William N. Byers, founder of the Rocky Mountain News. In June 1859, he camped where the Golden Rose Inn is now located. He suggested that a town be laid out in that vicinity. Since it was about half way between Nevada City (Nevadaville) and Mountain City he said it should be called "Central City."
Another story is that a miner's supply store was in the same area and the sign over the entrance was "Central City Store." The surrounding area then became known as Central City. One way or another, Central City, the cradle of Colorado, was born. It's official name: The City of Central.
The first newspaper published in the mountains was the Rocky Mountain Gold Reporter and Mountain City Herald. In its first issue, dated August 13, 1859, it contained the following article regarding Mountain City:
"Although not three months old, it contains already some 300 buildings substantially erected, with a population of between 2,800 and 3,000, nearly all of whom are miners. Yet the arts and trades are well represented, we have about 25 stores, 2 jewelry shops, 3 tailor shops, blacksmiths, shoemakers, painters, etc."
On September 29, the first snow fell and most of the miners returned to lower elevations. However, a census taken in late October revealed that nearly 2,300 men were still in the mountain areas of Black Hawk, Central City, Nevadaville, and Russell Gulch.

I don't think I've ever met a business owner who wasn't busy. Managing your time is one of the hardest things you'll need to do as an entrepreneur. There's always too much to do, so you'll need to manage your time well in order to get everything done. Here are my top time management tips:
1. Find out what you're doing with your time.
One of the first things to do is to actually find out what you are doing with your time. Try monitoring your time for a week and see what's going on. Use colour coding if it makes things easier i.e. yellow for administrative tasks; blue for marketing; green for client work and so on. At the end of the week, you'll be able to see what you're spending too much time on and adjust your time accordingly.
2. Get organised
The more organised you get yourself, the more you'll be able to handle all the tasks you need to do. Tidy your desk; set up filing systems; and have procedures to deal with the work that comes in. I know it's hard, but try to deal with each thing only once so that you get it out of the way.
3. Practise the "Do it now" philosophy
As soon as a new task comes in, try to "do it now". You'll be amazed at how many tasks you can get rid of. Things very rarely take as long as you think they will once you get cracking.
4. Do things in short bursts
If you're really not looking forward to doing a task, make yourself do it for 5 minutes only. If you know you're only going to be doing it for 5 minutes, it doesn't look as daunting. And once you've got started on the task, you'll probably find you'll continue on it once the 5 minutes is up.
5. Ask yourself "what's stopping you?"
Lack of time is often used as an excuse for not doing something. If you find yourself putting something off because you "don't have the time", ask yourself what's going on. Questioning what's stopping you completing tasks can often really help you decide whether or not to do them.
6. Don't be afraid to drop a task
Look, if you haven't completed a task; you've asked yourself "what's stopping you"; and you've reached the conclusion that you really don't want to do it, don't be afraid to drop the task altogether. We often agree to things that don't actually benefit us and if a task falls into this category, make the decision that you have the choice to drop the task.
7. You have a choice
As entrepreneurs, we start each day with a blank piece of paper and choose how to fill our time. You don't have to agree to everything unless you want to do it or it helps you to achieve your goals.
8. Set goals
Setting goals will help keep you motivated and focused. Decide on three personal goals that you'd love to complete over the next year and three business ones. The goals must be things that you really want to do. Your time should then be spent on tasks and activities that help you complete these goals.
9. Accept that it's impossible to get everything done
There's only so much time in a day. Even if you're the most efficient person ever, if you have too many tasks you won't get them all completed. Accept this and don't feel too guilty if you miss out on a few.
10. Have fun
Finally, remember as an entrepreneur to have some fun. Running a business isn't all about working – take some time off too. If you develop a hobby or an interest that takes your mind off the business, you'll be much more productive as a result.
There's no one solution to managing your time. The trick is to find things that work for you, Try different things, have fun and do the things that help you to achieve your goals for what you want from your business.

Ministry of Rural Development and UNDP sign letter of collaboration in support of rural employment and livelihood programmesOct 12, 2012
The Ministry of Rural Development (MoRD) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) signed a letter of collaboration for UNDP's support to the rural employment and livelihood programmes in India during the twelfth five year plan of the Government of India (2013-2017).
The MOU was signed by Shri Jairam Ramesh, Union Minister for Rural Development and Ms. Lise Grande, UNDP Resident Representative and UN Resident Coordinator. The MoU was signed in the presence of UN Under Secretary General and UNDP Associate Administrator Ms. Rebeca Grynspan, Country Director, UNDP India, Caitlin Wiesen, Vijay Kumar, Joint Secretary, Ministry of Rural Development and other senior government officials.
During the next five years, the Ministry and UNDP will work to strengthen and institute effective implementation of the rural development flagship programmes, especially the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) and National Rural Livelihood Mission(NRLM).
On the priority list is the Governance and Accelerated Livelihood Security (GOALS) programme for 10 left wing extremist affected districts; Bastar, Kanker, Dantewada, Sukma, Bijapur, Narayanpur in Chhattisgarh and Kalahandi, Koraput, Malkangiri and Raigada in Odisha.
In line with the Ministry's focus on strengthening and generating livelihoods, the GOALS project activities include scaling up Non-Timber Forest Produce (NTFP) focused livelihoods, establishing innovative pilots to expand market opportunities and financial access for tribal entreprenuers, improving quality of produce to meet market standards etc.
Emphasis of the programme will be on making state governments more responsive in delivering benefits under MGNREGA and NRLM and in ensuring communities are engaged in local governance. It will focus intensively on building the capacity of communities and other stakeholders through awareness generation and mobilizing youth for participatory planning, education and providing skills for jobs.
Another focus programme for both the Ministry and the UNDP is the Greening Rural Development, to enhance green results delivered through the Ministry's Schemes including MGNREGA, NRLM, Pradhan Mantri Grameen Sadak Yojana (PMGSY), Indira Awaas Yojana (IAY).

A movie poster for the British biopic Diana, starring Naomi Watts as the ill-fated princess, has been placed on the exact spot directly above the Paris traffic tunnel where she was killed in a car accident 16 years ago.
In reaction, close friends of Diana and other admirers have sharp words to criticize the move as exploitative.
Rosa Monckton, for many years one of Diana's closest confidantes, said: "I really don't have any words to describe how I feel about this cynical and shameless attempt to publicize a film that should never have been made."
She continues: "To have made a film so speculative and as this is disgusting enough, but to then advertise it on the spot at which she died is despicable. … It is a terrible intrusion into her memory, not to mention the lives of her sons, whose feelings are often forgotten in these stories. I would expect them to take it down right now."
The 6'x4' poster over the Alma underpass stands only a few feet away from the gold-leafed Flame of Liberty, which became Diana's unofficial memorial following her death.
There was no immediate comment from the makers or distributors of the film. A spokesman for Paris City Hall said that the posters were on display "all over" Paris, and that the one above the Alma tunnel was "one of many."
He added that all the posters were displayed legally.
Diana remains hugely popular in Paris, where she is still referred to as "Lady D," and many of those paying their respects on this anniversary added their own disapproval of the poster.
"It couldn't be more disrespectful," said Sarah Hume, a 19-year-old American student. "This is where Diana died, and yet the film producers are trying to promote their film here. They should be ashamed."
"Her memory should not be besmirched in this manner,' said Celine Durant, 38, a local shop worker who remembers "Lady D.'s terrible end – the place where it happened should not be marked with a film advertisement."
The movie, loosely based on Diana's romance with Dr. Hasnat Khan (which ended in 1997, just before she died alongside another boyfriend, Dodi Al-Fayed), has already been widely panned in Britain and is now opening in Paris to equally appalling reviews.
Critic Jérôme Garcin, of the Nouvel Observateur, said of the film that it was impossible to imagine anything "more stupid, more ugly."
