NEJM has just published an RCT of INTRAcranial stenting for symptomatic intracranial arterial stenosis vs. aggressive medical therapy. It showed WORSE outcomes for stenting.
For me, this begs the question of whether NASCET (symptomatic; published 1998) and ACAS (asymptomatic; published 1995) CEA trials need to be repeated, up against aggressive medical Rx.
How was aggressive medical Rx defined in the trial?
Aggressive Medical Management
The rationale for the medical-management regimen and details on the management of risk factors in the study patients have been published previously.21-23… we targeted a systolic blood pressure of less than 140 mm Hg (<130 mm Hg in the case of patients with diabetes) and an LDL cholesterol level of less than 70 mg per deciliter (1.81 mmol per liter). We provide the aspirin, clopidogrel, one drug from each major class of antihypertensive agents, rosuvastatin, and the lifestyle program to the study patients.
Medical therapy was probably less aggressive in the NASCET study:

LONG BEACH — The private airplane that crashed last year at Long Beach Airport, killing five men, was 653 pounds overweight at takeoff and its engines may have been compromised by water, according to a federal probe report.
The National Transportation Safety Board investigation into the crash on March 16, 2011, is routine on all accidents involving planes and public transportation systems. But the report released Thursday does not pinpoint any one factor as being the central cause of the deadly plane crash.
The report cites several factors that may have contributed, including its weight and water in the engine. The report also noted the plane was not properly inspected before take-off.
The crash killed several well-known businessmen and community leaders, including businessman and bicycle advocate Mark Bixby, 44, a well-known member of one of Long Beach's founding families, and two real estate partners who were involved in the Los Cerritos Wetlands land swap, Thomas Dean, 50, of Laguna Beach, and Jeff Berger, 49, of Manhattan Beach.
Also killed were Bruce Krall, 51, of Ladera Ranch; and pilot Kenneth Cruz, 43, of Culver City.
The passengers – on their way to a ski trip in Salt Lake City, Utah – died from multiple traumatic injuries, the NTSB says. Cruz died from multiple traumatic injuries with thermal injuries, or burns.
The sole survivor was Mike Jensen, 51, of Long Beach, the owner of Pacific Retail Partners and Bixby's boss. He suffered severe burns in the crash.
The NTSB report says the twin-engine Beech King Air 200 was owned by Carde Equipment Sales LLC of California.
The report provides new details on the crash, including witness reports, mechanical information and the results of inspections conducted after the crash.
Witnesses described hearing two loud pops as the plane listed to the left. The report says these could have been caused by the engine attempting to restart.
"One witness said 'the airplane sounded like it was in trouble,'" the NTSB report says. "Another witness said it sounded like one of the engine's propellers 'feathered, went to a flat pitch or even went into beta mode, like a full power fan noise.'
"A third witness said 'the strange noise was like a propeller noise, not an engine sound.' A fourth witness said that it appeared to him that the left propeller was windmilling," the report added.
The accident occurred seconds after take-off. The plane burst into flames on the southwest portion of the Long Beach Airport.
All five deaths were ruled accidental by the Coroner's Office.
Witnesses told the NTSB investigators that the plane began to bank left, "its wings wobbled and its fuselage fishtailed.
"As the airplane's bank angle continued to increase, the airplane's yawing progressed to a left skid 'until it looked like it was going sideways,'" the report added.
The plane's nose began to drop off, and it didn't seem to have any lift, increasing the banking angle to 45 to 90 degrees – dropping the nose to a vertical angle.
A video, according to the NTSB, shows the plane flying normally for about two seconds, before departing to the left of the runway and hitting the ground about nine seconds later.
The plane's two fuel systems, one in each wing, fed the engines by way of engine feed tanks.
The director of maintenance told investigators that if water was present in the tanks, it would create a "slug" of water that would then flow to the engine's 14 fuel nozzles, where it could extinguish the engine's fire.
"The engine would stop producing power and the propeller would move from coarse to pitch," the report added.
However, "The engines displayed no indications of any pre-impact anomalies or distress that would have precluded normal engine operation prior to impact," the report stated.
The owner's aviation manager, who was not identified, also told NTSB investigators that he noticed that the pilot performed a pre-flight inspection during which the pilot drained one or more of the plane's 12 fuel sump drains. "He also observed that the pilot performed the draining while he was still fueling," the report added.
"Normal recommended procedures for draining fuel tank sumps is to wait at least 20 to 30 minutes after fueling to permit the settling of any water or any other possible contaminates," the investigators stated.
The plane was also overloaded by more than 600 pounds. Subtracting the weight of the plane and fuel, the plane could carry only 695 pounds.
According to driver's license information on the passengers, their total weight came to 1,115 pounds, in addition to 230 pounds of luggage.
The Federal Aviation Administration's Civil Aeromedical Institute also performed toxicology tests on the pilot's blood that resulted in negative findings.

SIFCO ASC Presents: Plating in Grooves
SIFCO Applied Surface Concepts (ASC), the world's leading supplier of selective plating technology, presented "Plating in Grooves" a webinar which covered alternative surface finishing methods, and plating techniques for o-ring grooves, recesses, keyways, threads, and other complex shapes.
With a positive outlook for the oil and gas market comes investment in new capital equipment, as well as refurbishment of old equipment to ensure the maximum lifetime value. With rigs operating sometimes 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, the constant wear and fatigue on the equipment causes corrosion, galling threads, ineffective seals, or worse.
The o-ring on the hydraulic cylinder provides a fundamental protection if it maintains proper dimension. But what do you do when your o-ring groove is out of dimension or damaged? Reaching these unique areas is not practical for your typical surface finishing techniques such as tank plating. In order to remain competitive, one must look for innovative ways to reduce costs while simultaneously reducing downtime and keep their equipment running longer.
The SIFCO Process® can be tailored to operate within many production processes and delivers accurate and controlled deposits. Learn about the groove plating technique and advancements from SIFCO ASC's technical experts, Derek Vanek, Technical Manager, Danijela Milosevic-Popovich, R&D Manager, and Derek Kilgore, Mechanical Design and Project Engineer.
You can watch the webinar On-Demand! Business Review Webinars will be hosting the on-demand webinar on their site until November 2019.

6 Ways To Take The Stress Out Of Your Child's First Day Of Primary School (For Both Of You)
OK, so you'll probably have a quiet sob over the fact that your baby's now a four-year-old and heading off to big school. But with our brilliant stress-busting guide, at least you can forget arriving late because you couldn't find a parking space and make sure your little one's first day of school goes as smoothly as possible – for you both (panda eyes aside).
1. Hit the shops together
From a lunch box, to a backpack, to a new pair of smart black shoes, there's a fair amount you'll need to buy before your child starts school. Start by consulting the school's handbook or website and make a list of everything your little one will need. Then set a date and go shopping together – let her have as much say as possible in what you buy to get her really excited. Make sure you get your child's uniform in plenty of time, too.
2. Have a trial run at home
All kids love playing school at home and it's a great way to prep your child for what her first day in the classroom will be like. From break times to P.E. class, aim to make the day as similar to what her school day will be like as possible – you can ring the school and ask about her class' schedule beforehand. You can even invite some of her friends round to join in or encourage her to wear her school uniform so it's all the more realistic.
3. Read up
There are some brilliant books to help your little one learn about what school will be like. Check out My School Day, which features a game and puzzle on every page to help your child learn about the different times of the school day.
4. Tour the school
If your child's school allows you to, spend a few hours looking around the classrooms and playground before her first day so she gets used to what everything looks like. If there isn't time or the school doesn't encourage this, have a look at photographs on the school's website.
5. Practice the journey
It's a great idea to try out your route before your child's first day – and at the same time you'd be travelling each day. School traffic combined with rush hour could mean that the journey will take double the time it should, so it's worth mapping out an alternative route as an extra precaution. Sitting in standstill traffic and knowing your child will be late for school on her first day will do nothing for your stress levels!
6. Meet some classmates
You may already know some of the other children who will be going to school with your little one, and arranging a playdate before the year begins is a great way for them to get to know one another to make that first day more comfortable. If this isn't possible, you could take your child along to a group activity with children of the same age, such as a storytelling session at your local library.
Is your child about to start school? Let us know in the comments box below.

Shantidas Jhaveri
Jump to navigation Jump to search
Shantidas Jhaveri (c. 1580s–1659) was an influential Indian jeweller, bullion trader (sarraf) and moneylender (sahukar) during the Mughal era. He was the wealthiest merchant in the Ahmedabad city during the 17th century. He was also a philanthropist, who made donations to temples and schools.
- The next monument visited was the great Jain temple built only a few years before by Shantidas Jhaveri, one of the wealthiest men of Gujarat in his day and high in favour both with Shah Jahan and after him with Aurangzeb. ...In 1638, however, when Mandelslo visited the place, this temple which he calls ' the principal mosque of the Banyas ' was in all its pristine splendour and ' without dispute one of the noblest structures that could be seen'. 'It was then new,' he adds, ' for the Founder, who was a rich Banya merchant, named Shantidas, was living in my time.
As Mandelslo's description is the earliest account we have of this famous monument, which was desecrated only seven years after visit by the Orders of Aurangzeb, then viceroy of Gujarat (1645), we shall reproduce it at some length. It stood in the middle of a great court which was enclosed by a high wall of freestone. All about this wall on the inner side was a gallery, similar to the cloisters of the monasteries in Europe, with a large number of cells, in each of which was placed a statue in white or black marble. These figures no doubt represented the Jain Tirthankars, but Mandelslo may be forgiven when he speaks of each of them as ' representing a woman naked, sitting, and having her legs lying cross under her, according to the mode of the country. Some of the cells had three statues in them, namely, a large one between two smaller ones.' At the entrance to the temple stood two elephants of black marble in life- size and on one of them was seated an effigy of the builder. The walls of the temple were adorned with figures of men and animals. At the further end of the building were the shrines consisting of three chapels divided from each other by wooden rails. In these were placed marble statues of the Tirthankars with a lighted lamp before that which stood in the central shrine. One of the priests attending the temple was busy receiving from the votaries flowers which were placed round the images, as also oil for the lamps that hung before the rails, and wheat and salt as a sacrifice. The priest had covered his mouth and nose with a piece of linen cloth so that the impurity of his breath should not profane the images.
- Description of the temple built by Shantidas Jhaveri. Mandelslo's Travels In Western India (a.d.1638-9) [1] p. 23-25
- Amedahad being inhabited also by a great number of heathens, there are Pagods, or Idol-Temples it it. That which was called the Pagod of Santidas was the chief, before King Auranzeb converted it into a Mosque. When he performed that ceremony, he caused a cow to be killed in the place, knowing very well, that after such an action, the Gentiles according to their Law, could worship no more therein. All round the temple there is a cloyster furnished with lovely Cells, beautified with Figures of Marble in relief, representing naked Women sitting after the Oriental fashion. The inside Roof of the Mosque is pretty enough, and the Walls are full of the Figures of Men and Beasts ; but Auranzeb, who hath always made a show of an affected Devotion, which at length raised him to the Throne, caused the Noses of all these Figures which added a great deal of Magnificence to that Mosque, to be beat off.
- Description of the temple built by Shantidas Jhaveri. Indian Records Series Indian Travels Of Thevenot And Careri [2] Cited in Harsh Narain, The Ayodhya Temple Mosque Dispute: Focus on Muslim Sources, Appendix VI
- Ahmadabad is one of the largest towns in India, and there is a considerable trade in silken stuffs, gold and silver tapestries, and others mixed with silk ; saltpetre, sugar, ginger, both candied and plain, tamarinds, mirabolans, and indigo cakes, which are made at three leagues from Ahmadabad, at a large town called Suarkei.There was formerly a pagoda in this place, which the Musalinans seized and converted into a mosque. Before entering it you traverse three great courts paved with marble, and surrounded by galleries, but you are not allowed to place foot in the third without removing your shoes. The exterior of the mosque is ornamented with mosaic, the greater part of which consists of agates of different colours, obtained from the mountains of Cambay, only two days' journey thence.

How I outran Hurricane Irma and still kept my business running without missing a beat.
We agonized over the decision for several days. Should we stay? Should we evacuate? Where will we go? As the days progressed, The Weather Channel played continuously in the background. Irma was described as a "monster" and "unprecedented." It was going to engulf the entire state of Florida starting at the keys and drive northward wreaking havoc throughout the state. The uncertainty of it all made me feel as though I was going to throw up at any minute. I began staging water, food and important papers for a hasty exit.
Mandatory evacuations in my area began Thursday afternoon. Although I live in Zone D and unlikely to flood, at 2pm on Thursday afternoon, my husband said, "We're leaving." One hour and 40 minutes later we backed out of our driveway not knowing if we would ever see our home again. We began a daunting journey that took us over 2,800 miles as we ran from the storm and headed to Michigan.
There were long hours in the car with an elderly dog and the everlasting awareness of how much gas we had because of shortages. Hotel rooms were difficult to find but after 28 hours and two hotel stays, we made it safely to my son's home in Michigan to wait out the storm. It was a long way to drive but not knowing how long we might be out of our home, being with family felt like the best decision.
And through the emotional and physical upheaval of it all, my work never missed a beat. I didn't let one client down. Not one.
I'm fortunate. My business doesn't require that I live in any particular location. As an online marketing manager and strategist, I can work from anywhere as long as I have internet. My smartphone was my lifeline to the outside world, but I have identified three things necessary to manage an online business under any condition.
- Planning and organization skills – The work I do for my clients is planned in advance. We have a strategy and a time line. Not one to fret over deadlines, social media posts and emails are scheduled in advance. When I left Florida on a Thursday at a moment's notice, I had at least four days before I would have a pressing deadline. We stayed in Michigan a few days, worked from there and went on to North Carolina. We stayed there a few days and I forged ahead with conference calls, planning sessions and screen time. Having a plan and working in advance has never hindered anyone's success.
- Hootsuite – This is my go-to scheduling tool. It's the perfect tool for planning and organization. All of my client's social media marketing and promotion is scheduled in advance using Hootsuite Pro. I do all of my scheduling from my laptop but if there is an issue when I'm on the road, I use the Hootsuite app on my smartphone to make edits or schedule last minute posts. Hootsuite is an essential part of my tool kit, easy-to-use and affordable.
- Smartphone – We know that smartphones have transformed behaviors across the board. We have phone chargers in our car and my phone never left my hand. My family texted me regularly. I kept up with email and responded to everything promptly. I made and rescheduled appointments as needed. Facebook kept me connected to all that was happening in Florida and in my home town. The governor's frequent televised appearances urging people to evacuate showed up on my newsfeed. I communicated with friends who were also staying or evacuating. My phone was my lifeline to the outside world.
When Irma turned east and went toward Orlando and then northward, we were spared the worst of the storm. My home suffered no damage, although I can't say the same for some of the plants in the yard. The experience was emotionally and physically draining beyond anything I have ever experienced.
Life is beginning to feel 'normal' again, but I still have NOAA prioritized in my Facebook newsfeed and noticed that we now have Pilar popping up out in the Atlantic. I don't see anything urging me to go, but I know that when the time comes I have the skills and tools needed to keep my business running and my clients happy.

"Let's get you back to bed." Scooped her into his arms, Rose curled tight in his embrace. It would have found it quiet endearing, if she wasn't drooling down his neck.

Town Realty announced late last night that it would cease its sales and leasing operations through its Town Residential division.
Instead, the brokerage is focusing on "international referrals and new development" exclusively, The Real Deal reports.
The decision effectively means that the current incarnation of the brokerage is "done" after eight years in the business, The Real Deal says in the article. Town Residential was described by The Real Deal as "the quintessential Manhattan brokerage: bold, loud, growth-obsessed and provocative."
Town Residential employs some 600 agents, who were notified of the news on Thursday afternoon via email. And according to recent reports, the brokerage has been struggling to pay commissions and bills.
Agents have reported delayed paychecks and commission checks as early as summer 2017, with some agents reportedly jumping ship for greener pastures.
"The writing was on the wall, so to speak," a manager leaving Town's Astor Place office Thursday evening told The Real Deal.
And, in March of this year, the brokerage began closing a number of its offices. In an attempt to quell the growing discontent in its agents, Town Residential allegedly promised to deliver commission checks within 72 hours of receiving them instead of the customary 30 days, according to the article.
However, the firm was soon after sued for non-payment of commissions by some of its agents.
The firm's CEO Andrew Heiberger has yet to comment on the announcement.

Hammered by BSE, foot-and-mouth and the recession, British farmers are battling to survive. Matt Lobley and Matt Reed spoke to farming families in Devon feeling the pressure
The past few years have been terrible for the Smiths, a farming family in North Devon. After the link between vCJD and BSE had been made, sending the beef industry into freefall, the economic recession bit hard.
First, the Smiths cancelled their holidays, cancelled their satellite TV subscription and stopped replacing their cars. Then they cancelled their pensions and used their savings to channel all their money into keeping the farm afloat. Finally came foot-and-mouth disease and the squad from the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, who arrived at the Smiths' farm to kill all their animals.
When we met the family, keen to learn how they had changed their lives to cope with the situation they found themselves in, Margaret Smith couldn't bring herself to talk about what happened the day the men from Maff arrived. She just pointed out where the bodies had been piled before the pyre was lit. With her hands, she indicated how smoke from other pyres had drifted across their sheds and how, in turn, the smoke from their own herd went across the sheds on to another farm. She did manage to describe the sympathy of her neighbours, even when the remains of her cattle settled on their cars.
The Smiths' story was one we heard time and again while researching The Farmers on the Edge project. This was one of the first studies to look at how British farm households had reacted to the catastrophes of BSE, economic recession, foot-and-mouth disease and bovine tuberculosis. It uncovered bewildered families turning in on themselves as they battled to survive in unprecedented isolation.
Our research, funded by the Countryside Agency and carried out with colleagues from the Centre of Rural Research and the University of Plymouth, focused on a relatively remote area of North Devon. We surveyed farms drawn from a larger sample surveyed 20 years ago by Michael Winter, professor of rural policy at Exeter University. We expected the results to be grim. A recent report in the British Medical Journal revealed that British farmers were more than twice as likely as the general population to contemplate suicide and called for their mental health to be monitored in the aftermath of foot-and-mouth. But this disease was just one in a long line of problems that has beset farming families. By the late 1990s, farming incomes were lower than they had been during the recession of the 1930s, while the effects of BSE were still rippling through the agricultural industry as export opportunities remained lost. In the area of North Devon we studied, movement restrictions on farming families because of foot-and-mouth were often reinforced later by those put in place to control bovine TB.
Matt Reed, who conducted most of the fieldwork, was often the first "outsider" to visit the families after the end of foot-and-mouth.
Sometimes, he wasn't welcomed. One farmer simply responded: "Please don't come around, we are having a bloody nightmare here." Another farmer, John Mattern, recalled the raw emotions of that time: "There were people in tears and one thing and another, but I mean it wasn't no good getting like that. I knew I didn't have (foot-and-mouth disease in my herd) but you dreamt you had it every night, and every morning when you looked at everything it was a greater period of stress, you know, than if you did have it."
Despite the traditional appearance of the area, the farming community had lost much of its cohesion. The once common practice of neighbour helping neighbour had all but disappeared except in emergencies. Even membership of the National Farmers Union - often seen as near compulsory 20 years ago - had fallen dramatically as farmers increasingly felt that it no longer represented them or their best interests. As one farmer pithily remarked:
"The NFU - bugger them."
Members of farming families have also withdrawn from holding civic positions, standing down as school governors or parish councillors. This is perhaps partly a cause and partly a reflection of the few farmers who know the names of their non-farming neighbours. It is also indicative of the harsh realities of life on the modern family farm. One young farmer, whose family had adopted a strategy of working longer, harder hours to survive, reflected: "It's got worse really in the way it's more pressure, pressure all day, seven days a week. You just can't shut it off, you know. This is the trouble when you've gotta be there and see to everything. AndI that's the problem, innitI it's pressure, mental pressure."
Despite the hardship, we did not find any examples of extreme poverty. Many were reluctant to admit to "going without", such as skipping meals or turning off the heating, although others acknowledged they had delayed household expenditure for the sake of the business. In some families, women took on additional work, while in others pension plans were cancelled and savings used to make ends meet. One family supported its adult children on the pensions of the retired parents.
And the farmers we interviewed are not about to give up. Most were committed to remaining in farming, or at least staying on the farm. "A lot of people said, you know, when foot-and-mouth came round they wouldn't be going back to it (farming)," said Alex Sim, one farmer we interviewed.
"Well what're we gonna do? What's the alternative? There is no alternative is there? It's a farming area, farming people, and we've got to get on with it."
Having survived foot-and-mouth, people such as Sim are now coming to terms with a new less forgiving countryside. For many, this has simply meant trying to survive by avoiding risk of any kind and working long, hard hours. Such an approach may aid short-term survival, but an unwillingness to seek external capital and to take chances may have implications for survival in the future.
Some are in danger of succumbing to a downward spiral leading to depression and more isolation. A local minister told us: "There are a lot of people in these communities who fall by the wayside, and one of the problems with depression is that people tend to isolate themselves. When you have not seen someone in the community for some time, you stop worrying about them."
Isolated farmers increasingly lack awareness of strategies that carry a lighter personal cost - strategies they might previously have learned about from others. The informal links that are important for a successful business are withering away. Our research suggests that networks of friendship, association and civic participation were far more confined compared with what had existed before the recession and foot-and-mouth. At a time when, more than ever, farmers are being called on to become rural entrepreneurs, many we spoke to were unable to conceive of a clear future direction.
A first step to recovery must involve overcoming isolation, rebuilding networks and gaining the time and space necessary to plan ahead, away from the constant seven-day-a-week pressure of running the farm. The very factors that have enabled many to survive - the willingness to work excessive hours and to forgo personal wants - now threaten their ability to reconnect to the wider rural economy and society. Policy-makers should also recognise that the road to rural entrepreneurship is not straightforward and that measures designed to help rebuild moribund social associations and provide opportunities for business mentoring may be just as significant as grant aid. Many of the farmers we met have looked over the edge and have returned; their longer term survival now rests on the ability of all concerned to recognise the personal and social costs of survival as much as the economics of farming.
An interview with one family makes it clear what the price could be.
John Mattern: "The phone was going constantly really, wannit, everybody was ringing everybody. I mean it was fine for the first three weeks, then after that it got to be a real pain, didn't it really."
Joan Mattern: "Yeah. You just wanted to be left alone."
John Mattern: "The last thing you wanted to speak about was foot-and-mouth again. I mean, there was foot-and-mouth, so we didn't move for three months. I didn't even go to the end of the lane for six weeks."

Driving your car can bring you joy — and the freedom to go on road trips or see friends whenever you like — but paying for its upkeep can be a pain.
Cars are pricey to maintain: The average annual ownership costs are more than $8,400 for vehicles driven 15,000 miles a year.
To reduce the strain of car ownership on your finances, try these lesser-known ways to save on your car.
» SIGN UP: Find savings on your car expenses
1. Consult your owner's manual
If you rarely look under the hood of your car, you might blindly follow every recommendation that the dealership's mechanic makes. But that could be a mistake.
Your owner's manual spells out everything you need to know, including your maintenance schedule, which tells you how often you should change your oil. Repair shops often recommend a more frequent maintenance schedule that will cost you more, so it's generally best to stick to the schedule in your owner's manual. (You can often find an online version of your car's manual for free.)

2. Look into mobile technicians
For straightforward car repairs, there are budget-friendly alternatives to auto repair shops. The next time you scratch your car or need replacement brake pads, look into a mobile mechanic who can come to you and fix your problem for less. For example, a paintless dent repair technician can fix a door ding for about a third of the cost of a body shop. Check out online reviews to make sure you're working with someone reputable.

3. Pick the right color (and finish)
Before you default to picking a car in your favorite color, consider how colors can influence the initial price and resale value of your vehicle. Cars in neutral colors (e.g., silver, white, black and gray) tend to retain more value than polarizing colors like purple and gold — by hundreds or even thousands of dollars. And brighter colors might be likelier to attract the attention of a traffic officer.
Additionally, what it takes to maintain or repair your car's paint color and finish will vary depending on what you choose. Matte finish is notoriously expensive to fix, for example, as a small ding could require you to fix an entire panel.
4. Pay only for the miles you drive
If you tend to use your car only for the occasional errand or weekend trip, switching to a pay-per-mile auto insurance policy could help you save on monthly payments.
With Metromile, a San Francisco-based car insurance startup that offers policies in Arizona, California, Illinois, New Jersey, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Washington, you'd pay a base rate and a per-mile rate (a few cents per mile). Drivers in New Jersey, Oregon and Texas are eligible for MileWise, a pay-per-mile program from Allstate.

Jermaine Jenas is one England's most recognisable footballers and a successful broadcaster and football pundit.
During his football career, Jermaine played in the Premier League and represented England through the age groups before making his first team debut for the Three Lions in 2003. His honours include the PFA Young Player of the Year in 2003 and a Carling Cup Winner's medal in 2008 at Tottenham Hotspur, where he had moved to from Newcastle for £7m in 2005. Since retiring from the game, Jermaine has established himself as a respected pundit for BBC and BT Sport, providing commentary and thoughtful analysis for both channels, at home and internationally. Jermaine has also undertaken successful ventures outside of football, including co-founding a hugely important foundation working in education, and playing his role in hard-hitting factual TV.
Upon retiring from injury, Jermaine made a successful start to his punditry career in 2014. He has been a regular on BT Sport, Match of the Day, Football Focus and co-hosts the Friday Football Social for BBC Radio 5 Live alongside Darren Fletcher – which has been nominated twice for an AFA Award. In 2019 Jermaine launched a brand new primetime show on BBC Two, MOTDx, which features a rotational panel of talent discussing topical football and social events.
From being the youngest ever pundit on Match of The Day, Jermaine's career has blossomed and he has covered some of the biggest games in football, including the 2016 European Championship and 2018 World Cup with the BBC. An astute co-commentator, he also had the unprecedented accolade of commentating on both the 2019 FA Cup Final for the BBC and the 2019 Champions League final for BT Sport.
In addition to his work with the BBC and BT Sport, Jermaine also works with International broadcasters such as Premier League Productions, Astro Supersport and Pyramids TV.
Jermaine's skill in front of a camera is not limited to discussing football. His documentary in 2017 with BBC Three proved he can tackle one of the country's most pressing issues amongst young people. The documentary, Britain's Teenage Knife Wars saw him return to his hometown Nottingham to investigate the spike in knife crime devastating young lives and families. He also received critical acclaim for his open and honest contribution to the BBC's A Royal Team Talk 2019, as part of a panel discussing mental health in football with the Duke of Cambridge, Thierry Henry, Danny Rose and Peter Crouch. In late 2019 Jermaine also released a documentary on veganism, which aired on both BBC iPlayer and BBC One.
Editorially, Jermaine has also had a regular column with The Mirror and GQ online.
His natural talent and versatility have led to him undertaking various ambassadorial roles. A natural fit for big brands, Jermaine has worked with L'Oreal, Coca-Cola, Tag Heuer, Jacamo, Beko and more. He also co-founded the Aquinas Education and Aquinas Foundation. Aquinas is the UK's fastest growing recruitment agency, specialising in security cleared and teaching jobs working with schools and playgroups. The Aquinas Foundation has a variety of programmes for schools to help tackle areas of concern such as truancy, punctuality and youth crime. Education is a huge passion and priority for Jermaine.
In-between his busy schedule, Jermaine is a father to three daughters, enjoys healthy eating and cooking and can often be found on his local golf course.

And just for fun I thought I'd check in with what Jeronimo Maya (the kid from a couple of posts ago) is up to these days. Not bad.
Both comments and pings are currently closed.

Yes, very nice . . . I've noticed, though, that nearly all the flamencos have long, flowing, locks. How can we balding flamencos who have not attained the same aficion y pasion as Grisha or Paco, attain an equal level of coolness without the proud mane of hair upon our heads? Is there any advice you can offer in the coolness department to the folically challenged flamencos of the world, Kai?

Sheryl Gascoigne, the ex-wife of footballer Paul Gascoigne, today accepted five-figure libel damages from the News of the World.
The paper alleged that she made a false claim about Gascoigne having forced himself on her sexually.
Her solicitor, Roderick Chisholm-Batten, said the NoW article, published in October last year and headlined "You Lying Bitch", suggested she had lied by falsely claiming that her former husband had forced himself on her sexually and that she suffered repeated acts of violence at his hands.
The article concerned Gascoigne's reaction to a previous interview given by his ex-wife in relation to her book, Stronger: My Life Surviving Gazza, which was serialised in the paper the week before.
Chisholm-Batten said: "The article suggested that Ms Gascoigne had lied in both her book and the interview by falsely claiming that Mr Gascoigne had forced himself on her sexually.
"It also suggested that she had lied in both her book and the interview by falsely claiming that she suffered repeated acts of violence at the hands of Mr Gascoigne."
He said the NoW's publishers, News Group Newspapers, "now accepts that each of these allegations was completely untrue".
Chisholm-Batten added that as part of the agreed settlement the NoW had agreed to pay damages and her costs.
News Group's lawyer, Patrick Callaghan, told the judge: "The defendant, through me, apologises to Ms Gascoigne and joins in the making of this statement to assist in setting the record straight."
Afterwards, Ms Gascoigne, who attended the high court hearing, said: "I am just glad it is all over and that justice is done."

Canadian Retailers Sweep Up Nearly $2.3B in Household Product Sales Each Year
Warmer temperatures in Canada usher in reminders that it's time to break out the brooms and cleaning products and get ready for spring. Cleaning can feel like a thankless job, but there is a wide array of cleaning products to freshen homes as the season changes, ranging from standard cleaners to eco-friendly and organics products, to fit consumer preferences. And turning over a cleaner leaf is no small affair, as consumers in Canada spend nearly $2.3 billion on household products each year.
Across the variety of products in the household product arena, it should come as little surprise that laundry products are top sales drivers, with three different product variants appearing in the top 10 selling household products. Laundry detergents lead sales in the household product category with $634 million in sales in the last year, with fabric softeners at $238 million and laundry care accompaniments at $77 million.
But clothes aren't the only thing consumers are keeping clean. Household cleaners have annual sales of $167 million and boasted the largest dollar volume increase over the past year (+7%) in the top 10. Along with household cleaners, laundry care accompaniments (+6%) and air care (+4%) round out the top three products by dollar growth.
Growth, however, isn't evident across all products. Sales of bathroom cleaners, for example, have dipped 8% over the past year. For marketers, distinguishing the benefits of bathroom specific cleaners over standard household cleaners may help expand sales in the category.
So what factors are affecting sales? As we've seen across the store, consumers are growing increasingly conscious about their health and the environment when it comes to product selection, and household cleaning products are no exception. In fact, 45% of consumers in Canada say that environmentally friendly cleaning products are important to them.
Additionally, 37% of consumers say they actively read product labels, while 40% of consumers indicate they purchase products that contain no harsh chemicals and say they prefer products that are green/eco-friendly (38%). It is worth noting, however, that only 58% of consumers know where to find eco-friendly products in the store. But shelf location isn't the only hurdle for greener cleaning products. Just under one-third (29%) of consumers feel that green/eco-friendly products are not as good as standard products, and only 15% of consumers are willing to sacrifice effectiveness for a green/eco-friendly option.
As consumers weigh the benefits of going green with product effectiveness, they're also minding their wallets. Notably, 70% of consumers say they perceive organic cleaning supplies to be more expensive, and only 20% say they're willing to pay more for green/eco-friendly choices. To help offset consumer perceptions and raise product awareness, marketers and retailers can develop improved in-store signage and marketing campaigns that demonstrate green/eco-friendly effectiveness.
With the overall household product category seeing increased sales of 2% in the year-ended March 3, 2018, cleaning is still top of mind for consumers, even as recent consumer confidence research highlights that many consumers (52%) have changed their spending to decrease household expenses. In the fiercely competitive fast-moving consumer goods market, successful retailers and manufacturers may benefit from marketing campaigns that distinguish their products benefits over the competition.
Insights in this article were derived from:
- Nielsen MarketTrack National (excluding Newfoundland) all channels , 52 weeks ending March 3, 2018
- Nielsen's Happy Healthy Home 2018 online survey of 5,810 Canadian consumers on healthy matters influencing their purchases, conducted in March 2018.

Where Do You Host Your Site, And How Do You Like It?
Choosing the right web hosting company for your blog/website is quite important, as if you go with a not-so-reliable one you might end up with slow loading times, frequent hacks, software problems and so on.
But how exactly do you evaluate hosting companies? Trusting information you see around the web is tricky, as most people are affiliates for one company or another, and they want you to sign-up so they can earn a commission.
That is why I figured it could be useful to get the opinions directly from the people hosting blogs and websites (i.e., our readers), where no affiliate commissions are involved.
So here's my question for you: Where do you host your site or blog, and how do you like it? Please answer it with a comment below.
I'll compile the answers in a list and publish the results over the coming weeks. Thanks in advance for everyone who will participate.

I use Squarespace – excellent platform for quick blog implementation.
I'm the oddball who hosts on his own ubuntu server at home. It's "free" (still pay for electricity), but risky because it's subject to the whims of my own hardware and internet connection. But my blog is just for family stuff, not monetary, so it suits my needs.
Lesa Dale
I use Mom Webs. They are really awesome. $10 month and Scott is always there to answer any silly question or solve any panic moment. I have multiple sites hosted on my account. I've been with them for 5 years and would not go with anyone else!
*$10 per month for unlimited hosting.
*Great Customer Support
One time I crashed my website. Well one quick call to Hostgator and they restored the files in a day. Yes it cost me $15 but that was well worth it as the website alone took weeks to build.
Dr. Bob Clarke
Host Gator — very reliable and the support is excellent.
I was using Servage for over 4 years, then one day, my blogs crashed and I realized that the only way I could get in touch with them was by email. They always have been pretty quick to answer so obviously in the 4 years I was with them it was not a big issue until a big incident happened and all my sites were down for over 48hrs.
So I got half of my blogs hosted on IX. I absolutely love their customer support. I am in the UK at the moment and since I have a USA subscription on Skype, every-time I have had an issue on my blogs, I have called them and their support is by far the best. But the up time of my sites was really not impressive and my sites crashed a few times.
After reading 100s of reviews about hosting companies and asking my friends, I decided to try Hostgator with my second best blog and I have been pretty happy with them except I think their customer support sucks. I called them a few times but I find the online chat to be more helpful though it depends on who you chat with.
Nancy Hendrickson
I use a smaller company AlphaOmegaHosting.com. They are incredibly good – fast response – always get any issue fixed within a couple of hours or sooner. I like dealing with a company with outstanding customer service.
Modern Saver
I'm surprised no one has mentioned BlueHost yet. I have been hosting my sites there for years. They provide a ton of value for the price, including good customer support.
Of course, the linked blog is on Blogger – No doubt its too good 🙂 But a couple of my other blogs are on Bluehost. Both the service and their customer support is quite good.
Kang Yudiono
I have been using Doreo since January 2011. I like Doreo because fast loading and great up time. Unfortunately, their cost is not cheap.
I host my site(s) at both hostgator and hostmonster. I used to have a dedicated server but it seemed like overkill. So scaled back a shared solution and have been very happy. Less headaches and performance still seems there. Hostgator is getter then hostmonster in my opinion.
I use hostgator – why? Not because they are paying well with its affiliate but the service they provide is awesome, 24 hour customer support makes solve everything in seconds. Highly recommend!
Amy Schmittauer
I have been with Site 5 for two of my websites since last September and I love them! I have never experienced downtime (although I'm sure it happens) and the loading time for my website is great. They are more than helpful when I need to take care of stuff on the backend and usually when I get to the point of utter frustration, they just do it for me. It's great to know they are there to support me when I need it and the price I pay every month is minimal and worth every penny!
I've used Hostmonster for years. My background is customer service and their support is amazing. Both in chat and in 24 hour phone calls to real people who assist with both the mundane and the panic moments. Downtime has been minimal. I host numerous sites with them and have never thought of changing. I'd been with 1&1, Go Daddy, Network Solutions over the years and was never satisfied with the response time/quality.
I have been with Dreamhost since 2006, host several domains/sites with them and have had a great service experience and very a important point have experienced no downtime. Their support response time is as advertised and i have always received answers that work with my services related questions. Everything just works and they keep their apps and software tools current. I have no qualms recommending them to others.
John Pope
I use Hostgator's VPS service. It's running OK most of the time and I'm OK with their support too.
From the hosting companies I've tried up until now I love Dreamhost the most, but I hate their custom cPanel.
Been using Bluehost for years and have never had a problem with anything.
Ruth Callejas
I host my site at Dot5hosting. Until a few months ago, I was very happy with their service. Now I am seriously thinking about moving to another hosting company. Why? In a word everything has slowed down, longer load time for website, longer time for support to answer. In short the hosting company I was very happy with has now become almost usless.
Jackie Sheeler
Dreamhost for a few years now, and I love them. the two WORST hosts I ever dealt with were Hostway & Network Solutions. run screaming from those losers.
I was with dream host for 3.5 years and moved to vps.net 4 months back.
Litespeed with APC, w3tc and auto server scaling had uptime of 99.88%. Which is less than 1 hour downtime in 30 days.
Also I wanted to learn some web server admin functions.
Jon Arve
I have a Norwegian blog and rely on a dedicated server from hetzner.de. Super bang for the bucks if you can administer your own server.
Stephanie Watson
I use Mom webs. They are really awesome mostly because of their excellent customer service. I don't know how Scott does it but I've actually had him answer my panicked emails at 2am when I accidentally deleted my own website. He fixed it back in no time from a server back up. He's very helpful.
I also use Hostgator, but I get far and better service from Momwebs. It's the kind of old fashioned service we all used to get before off-shoring of call centers and customer service functions. Every time I've gotten issues resolved within hours via email and typically issues I have are my own and not the company at all.
I wish all hosting companies could have this kind of customer service.
Abhijeet Mukherjee
I use Knownhost VPS and been very satisfied with them so far. I have used Hostgator in the past and they weren't bad either. However, in the 5-6 hosts I have used in the last few years, Knownhost has the best customer support.
- Abhinav Sonkar
Hostgator – Full marks to them for friendly customer support, almost 100% uptime. Highly recommended.
Dreamhost – Rude customer support. Heavy downtime. Stay away from them.
(I track all my sites using a monitoring service. )
I am hosting my site with AtlasHosting. I am very satisfied with their service and customer support. It takes them minutes to solve an issue, at least that has been the case so far. However, it is pricey!
I've used over recent years, Site 5, Dreamhost, and Hostgator all of which have been quite good.
Site 5 had a 24 hour downtime a few years ago when a server died, but otherwise no problems at all. Nice and fast load time.
Dreamhost is perhaps a little slow loading some sites, but otherwise solid hosting. The only time I had to user customer service, it was fast and helped me greatly. I can also run RoR 3.1 on shared with a bit of tweaking, which is good for me.
Hostgator is new to the party for me, but so far no issues at all. Everything works as it should. RoR however, is still in 2.n land.
I use HostGator and love it – awesome customer support and solid uptime make them a no-brainer imo
I host @ Dreamhost … solid uptime and I've had fantastic responce from tech support each time I contacted them (only 2 or 3 times in the last 3 years ). Only negative was I let my account lapse and I felt they held my domain registries hostage until I paid for more hosting. Wish access to domain management was more separate… beat great host. Wouldrecomend to others.
I've been using 1and1 for 5+ years. not the best customer support. but their stuff doesn't break. when it is something on their end. they're on top of it.

It's been said that "a good marriage is a long conversation that always seems too short". Perhaps it's because of this companionship that getting hitched boasts such a bevy of health benefits. Recent research shows that married couples report higher level of happiness, better cancer survival rates, more sex, less loneliness, and longer lifespans than their single counterparts.
But, if these aforementioned long conversations are more likely to happen over an indulgent meal than a shared workout, beware. A 2016 study of nearly 2,000 married couples indicated one hefty downside to marriage: a larger waistline. Men in the study were nearly twice as likely to be obese, while both women and men that were married worked out less (approximately 47 minutes less per week) than their married counterparts.
So, what's a health conscious but happily betrothed couple to do? As it turns out, there is a silver lining in all this. A study presented by Johns Hopkins researchers that analyzed the data of questionnaires completed by 3,261 middle aged couples 6 years apart. It showed that while married couples typically have overall lower exercise rates, it only takes one person to in the relationship to sway the trend in a positive direction. For example, if you (but not your spouse) breaks a sweat on a regular basis, your better half is up to 70% more likely to meet minimum exercise recommendations in the future–so long as you keep up the good work. This effect was maintained, regardless of whether the husband or the wife was the original fitness buff. Conversely, if either spouse gave up their exercise regimen, the other was more likely to follow suit. The implication is that your exercise behavior has an outsized impact on that of your spouse.
My partner still won't exercise!
Sometimes, it seems that despite best intentions, it's impossible to get your partner off the couch. Here are 5 ways to get moving together!
1. Don't get discouraged
Remember, changing habits can take time. Before a habit change like regular exercise "sticks" there is a progression of stages, including a contemplation phase. It's during this time that your spouse becomes aware of the habit and develops a desire to change. It's ok to ask questions about his/her interest level and make suggestions, but avoid being pushy…it might just slow down the timeline.
2. Better Together
Suggest activity that you can both do together–activities that he/she feels confident in or are new to both of you can be a good starting ground, particularly if the person new to exercise feels intimidated. For example, if one of you is an elite runner, start with some strength work in the gym to "level the playing field", so to speak. Even if you ultimately go your separate ways at the gym or when pounding the pavement, the first few weeks are highly formative, so help your partner ease in. This can mean sharing a warm up or cool down, changing your schedule slightly to match their availability, or even temporarily slowing down to match paces. Over time, you'll figure out the best exercise format to suit both your needs.
3. Keep it Light
There are plenty of workouts that don't "feel like exercise" that can make for a perfect date night. Ice or roller skating, yoga, hiking for starters. Or, introducing the idea of a "racecation", that is combining a race–such as a 5k or 10k–with a destination vacation, can be a great way to inspire your partner to start walking or running regularly.
4. Be a Problem Solver
Among the common reasons people give for not exercising are lack of time and energy. Have an honest and empathetic conversations with your partner to analyze if there are time or workload restrictions that you can help alleviate. Good advice for whether your goal is to strengthen your core or your marriage–or both!
5. Keep on Keepin' on
As the Johns Hopkins partner study indicates, one of the most important things you can do for both of you is to keep up your own routine. Modeling positive habits is one of the most important motivators–and the only one which you can fully control.

I love being in on the ground floor of something new.
Connect2Artists sounds too good to be true...I'll enter images tomorrow.
I love what you are doing...!
Just wanted to let you know that I recently sold 2 paintings that I had up on Connect2Artists! Thanks so much for giving my art a platform to reach buyers.
I just wanted to tell you thank you for informing us about your website. I wish you all of the best.
We'll be uploading some images soon...This certainly seems like a better choice than some of the other sites like Saatchi Art or Fine Art America which show your art, but then pitch similar art that is often lower in price to the person searching for you.
Wow! I'm stoked.
Thanks so much for letting me know I got into the Top 25.
Thank you so much... This is a tremendous service to the artists and is extremely user friendly.
I would just like to thank you all for letting me know about being voted in to the Top 25. It means a lot to me.
Two of my paintings have been voted in the TOP 25 paintings on Connect2Artists! I consider this a great honor considering some of the REALLY great artists posting on this site including Brian Blood, Laurie Kersey, Len Chmiel, Kate Starling, Ned Mueller, Dan Shultz, Ralph Oberg, and Kim Lordier...just to name a few.
Awesome news!! Thanks... I appreciate everything you are doing.
Super cool!!!!
Thank you so much!!! I'm shocked and thrilled!!!
Your ears must have been burning yesterday as I was sharing your creation and your generous pay it forward philosophy of helping artists.
Made my day! Thanks for the Top 25 designation and it's wonderful to be part of so much talent.
Thanks for the congratulatory message about my work being selected for the Top 25! Such an honor!
I love your website! ...I'm glad to be a part of it. I just sold my piece "Night Time Encounter" that was on your Top 25. Wish your website a lot of success as well as all the exhibited artists.

The Porch Puppies
Scout and Trixie
Chuck got into town today and we decided to let the horses run loose on the property... They are going to be eating all the over growth and weeds and a lot of grass... I think they are happy little porch puppies/horses... The mostly brown one is Buddy... The Brown one with white spots is Trixie and the little tiny one is Scout... Scout is ours and the other two are our friends Kat and Paul...But we have three acres of grass and such that needed to be taken care of and instead of working hours and hours on getting rid of them, the horses are...
Trixie and Buddy Curious about the rabbits
Other than that, nothing has been going on... I haven't been feeling great at all and have been trying to rest more than usual... I know that's hard to believe, but I think everything has caught up with me...

On June 24, 2013 John Fielder, a former Village Club member, came back to the club for a land preserve sponsored evening. John shared a slideshow of his magical images punctuating successes after 20 years of Great Outdoors Colorado (GOCO) funding for open lands, parks and recreation in Colorado!
A reception preceded the event; Villagers enjoyed light refreshments and then listened and watched as John shared both his photography and his impressions of GOCO's accomplishments. Afterwards he reminisced with old friends Martha and Jeff Welborn, Jim and Mark Johnson and Nina Beardsley Itin. Many were there to listen and have him sign some of his old and new photo books.
