Over 200,000 people die every year due to the results of drug abuse and addiction. The effects of addiction take a huge toll, while not fatal, on many more people than this already large number. Families, groups of friends, coworkers and colleagues and even strangers can experience stress and other troubling consequences of drug use.
Addiction is defined as a chronic disease of the brain that causes drug-seeking behaviors and the excessive use of substances. Addiction can't be overcome alone; even a successful "cold turkey" cessation of drug use, in addition to being medically dangerous, has been proven to be ineffective in long-lasting sobriety. Many who try to quit without help fall victim to relapse triggers.
The first experience with a drug usually results from curiosity or peer pressure. Repeated drug use begins to affect a person's perception, the ability to reason logically, and self-control.
Too many people still believe willpower and effort is all they need to get over an addiction, as misguided and troubling an opinion as there is in this world. Lack of willpower is not the reason for continued drug use. Only a strategic treatment plan, including detox, therapy, and inpatient or outpatient treatment can truly address the issue.
Addiction is like gravity – no one can fight it alone forever. Merito knows that addiction is a disease which affects the mind, body, and spirit of an individual. We offer the widest range of therapeutic services available for addicts and their families. Our staff is highly trained in the field of substance abuse. We offer compassion coupled with expertise to get you on the road to a long and fruitful recovery.

Three Great Books that Made Truly Awful Movies
Books are magical treasures that somehow manage to transform a simple page of words into a vivid picture in your mind that has the power to stay with you for many years. A good book can give us great joy when it comes to picturing the world the writer is describing, and we can end up building a comprehensive vision in our own minds of the characters and landscapes being conveyed.
Sadly, when it comes to Hollywood adaptations of some of our favourite books, directors and producers don't always get it right! We've had successes like the Harry Potter movies, and The Lord of the Rings movies, with the settings and themes of those books in large part lending themselves to the big screen. However, for as many hits we've had, there have been misses (big, BIG misses!) with directors with big budgets and a blockbuster approach capable of turning a widely loved book into a spectacularly awful movie.
Here are three such films that really did get the 'Hollywood' treatment in all the wrong ways.
Captain Corelli's Mandolin
Captain Corelli's Mandolin is arguably a decent movie if watched in isolation and without any wider context. Sadly though, if you have ever had the pleasure of reading the book, you will learn that the film is not only a horribly simplified version of the novel that fails to elaborate on key parts of the story, but that large parts of the plot without the wider context simply don't make much sense.
Perhaps the saddest part of this movie (spoiler alert!) is that during the key scene where Corelli is saved by fellow soldier Carlo, you have no idea that Carlo is in fact desperately in love with Corelli and saves him for this very reason. In the book, this is one of the most sensitively developed themes, but in the movie, you really end up wondering why this guy takes a bullet for the captain…
Cloud Atlas
When it first hit bookshelves across the globe, Cloud Atlas was an absolute revelation. The way the story was told over time through various different strands, all connected yet so distinctly separate was thrilling and made for one of the most memorable reads of the last 20 years. The different levels of interconnection created a true modern day literary masterpiece, but this did not translate in the slightest to the big screen, despite the fact that the movie cast included stellar names like Tom Hanks.
Clearly every good intention was made to make the movie as exciting and as close to the book as possible, but it simply failed to replicate the true magic of the written word. The book earned near universal approval from critics, but the movie was widely panned by critics, and for good reason.
Gulliver's Travels
The first two movies on our list can be fairly labeled as well-intentioned movie fails, but the attempt to turn a literary classic like Gulliver's Travels into a comedy film starring Jack Black was a downright crime to literary fans everywhere! It's fair to say that most people who bothered watching this film were left confused as to how it was meant to be linked to the travels of Gulliver in the original story, and this is perhaps the most universally accepted example of a great book being ruined by a truly awful film.
With these awful movie adaptations in mind, you can see what you think of both the films and the books by taking advantage of PromoPony's discount codes for Barnes and Noble. Have we missed any truly awful titles off our list? Let us know – we'd be delighted to hear from you!

She sat beside me
and watched me struggle
as I attempted to build
an empire from broken glass and tears
with retaining walls and a moat in defiance
of the tide.
it will never be strong enough she told me
but there is nothing more you can do
it will soon be gone and I knew that
she was right.
I wiped the sands
of make-believe from my eyes and cheeks
and we sat together and watched the ocean
swallow the kingdom, leaving only wet
clumps of a childhood dream, an illusion
at our feet.
follow me she said, and I walked with her to the edge
of the water. We stood ankle deep in silt
and broken shells. We stood in the only silence
that can be known on the edge of the water,
the kind of silence where you know
you are not alone
and never can be. We stood together,
worlds apart for what only seemed to be
an eternity.
Gentle swells brought children dancing in the surf
singing and playing the games that children play,
unknowingly conjuring spirits and speaking truths
they have yet to learn
ring around
the rosie
a pocket
She smiled at me and took my hands in hers
and we splashed and stumbled in circles
once, twice, three times
We all fall
And I knew it was time to let her go.
I turned away, holding in my hands the remnants
of her that had woven into my fingertips
and walked back up the sand
to my daughter, who was waiting for me
with the ocean in her bucket, waiting to build
sand castles.

A lot of brands have been targeted over their sponsorship of Glenn Beck's show on TV and radio.
So should brands be more vocal about their views, or the views of their management? Would you recommend that type of stance to a client?
Most companies aren't very public with their views. And this is where the new "join the conversation" and "let's be friends and have dialogues with brands" thinking starts to get tested. Because the conversation isn't going to go as smoothly as marketers want it to. Many of the people protesting Whole Foods are big fans, and big spending customers, of the brand. And they're mad because they do feel such loyalty, and the opinion of the CEO makes them think that loyalty isn't returned in kind.
Conversely, many people think the boycott advocates are misguided. So this is what we're seeing: Left-wing Whole Foods customers getting themselves in a twist and others writing letters to Glenn Beck's advertisers. Right-wingers pledging extra support to Glenn Beck's ex-advertisers and praising John Mackey. Lots of noise. Lots of vitriol. And marketers getting distracted by having to step lightly around a vocal but small minority of their customers when they'd rather focus on increasing sales in a bad economy. But to some customers, boycotting is the only way they think they could make a difference.
It's the subject of my new column on Talent Zoo.

Health Care Service Corporation Recognized by American Heart Association for Workplace Health Achievement
PR Newswire
CHICAGO, Aug. 20, 2018
CHICAGO, Aug. 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- The American Heart Association's 2018 Workplace Health Achievement Index awarded Health Care Service Corporation (HCSC) Gold-level recognition for taking significant steps to build a culture of health in the workplace. HCSC operates Blue Cross and Blue Shield health plans in Illinois, Montana, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas.
"We work hard to promote a culture of wellness that helps our employees be at their best and live their best lives – body, mind and spirit – the same thing we want for our members and communities," said Opella Ernest, M.D., HCSC's chief clinical officer and member of the American Heart Association's Metro Chicago Board of Directors. "The Index helps us track progress around the comprehensiveness and quality of our workplace health programs and the overall heart health of our employees. This recognition acknowledges the commitment of our teams who shape our wellness programs and the employees who invest in themselves through healthy behaviors."
HCSC employees are encouraged to take advantage of workplace resources that can help them make healthy food and lifestyle choices, reduce stress and incorporate physical movement into their day. In addition to sending daily and weekly emails related to various health and wellbeing topics, an online wellness portal gives employees an interactive experience to assist in making healthy lifestyle choices. The company also uses a designated symbol and brand in company cafeterias and micro-markets to identify healthy foods based on specific nutrition criteria per USDA dietary guidelines and input from staff dietitians.
More than 300 wellbeing champions throughout the company are responsible for communicating wellbeing programs and are given autonomy to create programs and events specific to the needs of the employees at their individual office sites. Each year, 16 service centers compete for the company's Hope Award, given to the office that has demonstrated a commitment to their employees' health by providing a thriving wellness environment. A full-service fitness center that offers access to exercise equipment and fitness classes, including yoga, is available at each of the company's five headquarter facilities for employees to purchase memberships. Indoor and outdoor facility walking maps are available for employees to track their distance on designated walking routes. At the HCSC headquarters and throughout Chicago, the company's Illinois health plan sponsors a Divvy bike-share program and employees have access to rent bikes at more than 570 stations.
The American Heart Association created the Index with its CEO Roundtable members, a leadership collaborative of more than 40 CEOs from some of America's largest companies who are committed to applying evidence-based approaches to improve their employees' overall health. The Index uses science-based best practices to evaluate the overall quality and comprehensiveness of their workplace health programs. A unique feature of the Index is that it calculates an average heart health score for employees of participating companies that securely submit aggregate health data.
More than 1,000 companies completed the Index assessment this year and, of those companies, 75 percent received either Gold, Silver, or Bronze recognition. Companies receive benchmarking reports, which allow them to identify potential areas of improvement so that they can advance their annual performance and recognition in the Index and help their workforce move toward ideal heart health.
The Association's Workplace Health Achievement Index allows companies to measure the effectiveness of their workplace health programs as well as the overall heart health of their employees. Unlike other existing organizational scorecards, the Index also scores companies on the heart health of their employees based on Life's Simple 7® – the Association's scientifically validated definition of ideal heart health. The American Heart Association's Workplace Health Achievement Index assessment is grounded in data-driven science and a quality improvement framework. According to the Nielsen 2016 Employee Health Survey, robust and comprehensive strategies for wellbeing are associated with positive impacts on employees' health.
About Health Care Service Corporation

While the show spent much of 2014 killing off characters close to the shows lead character Oiliver Queen, the shows fans have become a nearly unstoppable force on these awards. With 2587 votes, the show sets a new categorry record for most votes, and largest margin of victory 1,499 over runner up 2011 & 2012 winner Castle with 1088 votes. In 3rd is Sherlock in its 1st finals with 772 votes.
In 4th was Covert Affairs with 531 votes in the shows 1st & seemingly only finals appearance on news that it has been canceled. In 5th is Person Of Interest with 358 votes. In 6th Criminal Minds, the only show to be in all 5 finals for the category, down from 3rd last year. In 7th this year is Hannibal in its first finals appearance.

Best Action or Drama Program
The Best Action or Drama actor category had 1 of the few notable upsets of recent memory last year when secondary star John barrowman of Arrow beat out his own shows lead, and the defending 2 time winner Nathan Fillion from Castle to take the award. This year, those same top 3 finalists from last year are back & in the serious mix for this years honour. Joining them are 1st time finalist Christopher Gorham from Covert Affairs who finished 2nd to Stephen Amell from Arrow for the semi-final vote, and Mads Mikkelsen from hannibal, who finished 4th, a spot higher than he finished in the finals of last years vote. While the top 5 from last year all made the finals this year, the bottom half of last years top 10 was not so lucky, only 7th place James Spader from The Blacklist & 10th place Hugh Dancy from hannibal is returning. Ousted were Johnny Lee Miller of Elementary, Matthew Gray Gubler from Criminal Minds and Jim Caviezel from Person of Interest. New to the party besides Gorham are, Paul Blackthorne and Colton Haynes from Arrow, giving them FOUR finalists. Yannick Bisson from Murdoch Mysteries, and Ben McKenzie from the rookie drama Gotham.
The Best Action Or Drama Actress category has been the "Stana Katic Award" since its inception in 2011 as the actress from Castle has won all 3 times, making her the only actor or actress to win her award every year since its existence. But this year, it might not go her way if Emily Bett Rickards from Arrow has any say in it. The leading vote getting in the semi-finals had more than Katic & 3rd place fellow Arrow cast member Susanna Thompson combined. Three more Arrow cast made the finals with Caity Lotz in 4th, Willa Holland in 5th & Katie Cassidy in 12th, giving Arrow FIVE finalists. Surely vote splitting will be a major concern for the finalists there, giving Katic a bit of a chance still as she was the only finalist from Castle with Molly Quinn just missing out by 5 votes. Despite the seemingly lopsided rrow & Stana Katic race, there are other contenders. Lucy Liu from Elementary finished 3rd last year in the finals to Katic & Rickards, and comes in this year in 6th in the semi-finals. Amy Acker of Person Of Interest was also a finalist last year, finishing 5th and narrowly made it in this year in 11th. Grace Park finished 6th last year & finished 8th in this years semi-finals. Other newcomers besides the 4 newcomers from Arrow include Pauley Perrette from NCIS, Maggie Smith from Downton Abbey and Helene Joy from Murdoch Mysteries. Two finalists from last year Ellen Pompeo from Grey's Anatomy & Kerry Washington from Scandal failed to make the finals this year, along with Celina Jade from Arrow & Taraji P. Henson from Person Of Interest who are no longer eligible.
The Best Action or Drama Program category will again look like a fight between the defending champion Arrow & the former 2 time champion Castle. Perennial contender Criminal Minds finished 3rd last year and finished 8th in the semi-final voting to make it 5 consecutive years in the finals, the ONLY Drama to have done so. Last years New Program runner up Hannibal finished 3rd in the semi-final vote, cementing itself as a contender this year. In 4th is 1st time finalist Covert Affairs. Joining Covert Affairs on the 1st time finalist list is Sherlock, Murdoch Mysteries & The Blacklist. Only 5 of last years finalists made it to the finals this year. Missing the mark this time were retired Breaking Bad, along with Rookie Blue, Elementary, Grey's Anatomy & The Mentalist.
The Finals for these categories will take place in January 2015 HERE

The opening round generated 94,550 total votes. Of those, 5,081 were write-in votes. Unfortunately, only 2,299 were valid write in votes. Leaving 2,782 failed write in votes. More sad, this is not even the worst year percentage wise of ineligible write in votes.
As some of you who follow me on twitter, facebook, tumblr or right here on this site know, I have warned many people this year about writing in nominees in categories they either A- are already nominated in, or B- are not eligible for.
As you have surely noticed on prior results posted. Votes for write in votes of already nominated challengers were taken off their total in the round 1 results.
HOWEVER, as we all know, when you add up the write in votes, and the votes shown for write in votes...they don't even come close to adding up. This is where the write in votes for people, or shows NOT eligible in a category come in. I have tabulated a SUBSTANTIAL list of them over the 27 categories.
As I said repeatedly, doing this would lead to penalties. This year, I have decided the best way to do this is to take votes against a person/character and add them all up, divide them by all the categories they are eligible for round 2 in. So say "Person A" had 72 bad votes, and are eligible in 3 categories, they would have 24 votes against them in each category to be taken off.
How this will be done is, this round, 75% of those votes will be taken off. 18, per category. If the person still makes the finals in all 3 categories, the other 25% will be taken out there, costing them 6 votes each category there. If they only make it in 1 category, all the left over votes will go into the 1 category then, meaning 18 votes will be lost by person A in that category in the finals. If they don't make any finals, then the penalties just vanish since the person whose fans made the incorrect votes was eliminated.
I saw several "whats it matter, its not hurting anyone" comments. Which I suppose is technically right. I mean I wasn't physically harmed (as far as I know) from counting all the excess votes. HOWEVER, my TIME and patience were wasted to add them all up. Each write in vote has to be added up manually because of the countless spelling and punctuation varieties fans came up with for some of them. For 3 years I have warned fans thru the various social media platforms, as well as on here, this COULD happen....and several fanbases chose to ignore the statements. Thus why this year, those votes WILL be collected off the totals. Perhaps NEXT YEAR, certain fan bases will read things more thoroughly.
I did NOT keep track of anyone with less than 3 votes, as about 20% of the nominees had at least 1 against them.... and that's a LOT of people to track. Only the more frequent offenders were catalogued.
1280 - Zoie Palmer/Lauren Lewis (5 selections)
441 - Emmanuelle Vaugier/Evony the Morrigan (1 selection)
71 - Anna Silk/Bo Dennis (4 selections)
46 - Ksenia Solo/Kenzi (3 selections)

Dubai dream over for western investors
Real estate prices are in freefall. Billions of dollars worth of projects have been cancelled or put on hold and expats are leaving in droves as they lose their jobs. Once a playground for the rich and super-rich, the seaside emirate — home to palm tree shaped islands, mega malls and luxury sky-rise hotels — has lost its lustre. And bargain-basement assets are not yet cheap enough to tempt buyers back.
European investors, who once clamoured to Dubai, reckon they can land better deals closer to home or elsewhere in the Gulf. Some analysts are predicting that the more stable markets in Abu Dhabi, Doha and Saudi Arabia to recover faster than Dubai.
"Dubai is not one for us. I prefer long-term established locations with underlying intrinsic attractions or clear, sustainable competitive advantages," Bill Hughes, managing director, Legal & General Property, told Reuters.
True, Dubai offers guaranteed sunshine for almost 365 days of the year, tax-free salaries and arguably the most westernised lifestyle in the Gulf but the boom-bust characteristics of its real estate sector will likely deter many investors from taking the plunge.
From start-2007 to mid-2008, prices rallied almost 80 percent, Morgan Stanley estimates showed. But a UBS report last month said Dubai house prices could fall up to 70 percent from their fourth-quarter 2008 peak. A Reuters poll in March showed prices were likely to fall more than 40 percent in 2009 and 2010 before recovering in 2011.
It could be some time before western investors are lured back to seek bargains in Dubai's property sector, and even then, will the emirate's sector ever reach the same dizzy heights again? –Jason Benham.

Dubai will be fine, but things will not be the same as they have been for the past 10 years as there is more competition from Abu Dhabi and Qatar. That doesn't change the fact that Dubai has a lot to offer, great life style, good infrastructure, excellent housing (now at bargain prices), no tax, cheap quality labour force, political stability and a pro-active government. No doubt that as soon as the economy starts to show signs of recovery Dubai will boom again.
Dubai is a great place to live!
"…the latest trends in property investments globally show that the tide of cross-border activity has turned, with buyers retreating to home countries and local markets to scout distressed opportunities in the downturn.
…real estate trading activity has achieved a stunning global uniformity with very similar patterns. Worldwide sales volume and the number of trades plummeted to one-sixth their levels of two years ago and fell 73 % from Q1 2008 to just $47 b and 1,014 properties in Q1 2009, according the latest Global Capital Trends report of Real Capital Analytics. The broad drop in activity cut across all property types and just about every market."
Why do you link Dubai's 'most westernized' gulf state status to it being attractive to investors? Why would nonwestern investors care if it were westernized or not?
Quality always survives!
There is a lull in Dubai's economy, but Dubai will be coming back even stronger after the recession is over.
I think Dubai will never be what it was in 2007-08. It will come back to its state of 1999-2000. It will still remain tourist hub, but less of business hub due to confidence damage what they have done. Property market will not come back beyond 2003 levels max. Alot has been damaged, more than what we know. Lifestyle, western trends, sunshine or tax free status doesn't mean anything if base is not there. The base is trust. When trust flies away from a financial institution or a sovereign country, money flies out fast. Then it takes decades and radical changes to bring it back. These are my thoughts.
Dubai is the fine real estate market.But prices are too high and beyond the reach of the common man. Now prices have come down due to global recession.Of couurse,right time to invest.
Bargain basement prices!
50% reductions from the peak!
I don't think so. Try talking to the agents and see if you can find something at a bargain basement price.Go and have a look at a 2 bed on The Springs in Dubai at Dhs 1.3 million and wonder why anyone in their right mind would pay even half that.
I have spent weeks trying to find something at just 10% below its original price, even though I am told it should be more like 60%. They don't exist simple as that.One developer has even put their prices up 10% in the last week!
[…] Dubai dream over for western investors [Reuters Blog] […]
The prices are falling but still there is a lot optimism among middle east experts who think that Dubai real estate will bounce back.

Your Visual Legacy
Your wedding photographs are more than just memories of your wedding they are your 'Visual Legacy'. I love to use natural light and elements of fine art photography as well as documentary styles to capture your legacy in way that allows you to enjoy every moment of the day. I consider myself an alternative fine art wedding photographer, but I feel that 'natural' is more accurate as I focus on the truthful, heartfelt moments to capture moments as they happen naturally.

Northern fur seals range from southern California to central Japan, but most of the worldwide population breeds on islands in the Bering Sea. There are six major breeding islands and several smaller ones: Kuril Islands, Robben Island, Commander Islands (Bering and Medny), Pribilof Islands (St. Paul and St. George), Bogoslof Island and San Miguel Island. More than 70% of the worldwide population breeds and pups on the Pribilof Islands in the eastern Bering Sea.
Fur seals are strictly pelagic during winter (November to June) and only return to land to breed and nurse their pups during the summer months. Herds of northern fur seals, mostly females and juveniles, winter in open ocean across the North Pacific and migrate in spring to breeding islands in the Bering Sea and Sea of Okhotsk. Adult males do not migrate, but may disperse in the Bering Sea, into the Gulf of Alaska or waters off the coast of Japan.

Check your change, grab a penny and you are on your way to find out if your vehicle is ready for new tires. When you are considering driving most likely in normal driving conditions, insert the penny with Lincoln's head down the tread grooves. Repeat it on several locations of the same tire. When "Lincoln's head" appears to be covered fully and all the time, then you'll have around 2/32″ tread wear left. Depending on the State Laws, a tire is being considered "worn out" if your tread is less than 2/32″.
For more extreme weather conditions as we can find easily here in Wyoming and/or Nebraska during winter times, simply take your penny, flip it around so the "Lincoln Memorial" is facing you and turn it on its head – upside down.
Now when the tire tread is covering the roof top of the "Lincoln Memorial", then you'll know that the tire got at least 6/32″ tread wear left. In case you'll see it does not, then we urge you to get new tires as soon as possible and avoid making another trips out in any snowy, icy or wet weather conditions.
To be 100% sure, please stop by at one of our Fremont Motor locations in Wyoming or Nebraska. Our factory trained service consultants will make sure to get your vehicle and tires inspected so you can be assured to travel safe under any weather and road condition.

Western Carolina Physical Therapy now provides a full array of Vasyli custom orthotics and sandals. Vasyli custom inserts are a medical grade, heat moldable, custom built orthotic. Vasyli helps close the gap between retail inserts and formed orthotics which often cost upwards of $400. For patients who need more than just a little added comfort and can avoid formed orthotics, Vasyli products are just right. The typical cost of the orthotics is around $50 for the pair. Assessment and Fitting time that it takes for the physical therapist to evaluate your needs and mold the orthotics takes about 30-45 minutes and is often a covered service by insurance companies including Medicare and BCBS. Patients without insurance can expect to pay about $50 for this service. All in all, the Vasyli line is a great product at a very affordable price. Most patients can leave the office with their custom orthotics for around $100. Stop by and see us and the latest Vasyli product line up. We are conveniently located in the Lakey Creek Health Center, in the Cheshire Village of Black Mountain.
