See...we need naps!!! Save the mundane for the dip period.Q. Every day after lunch, you find yourself overcome by drowsiness, and you cant get any work done because you just want to crawl under your desk and go to sleep. Why does this happen?
A. This universal phenomenon, known as the post-lunch dip, represents a collision of biology and economics.
It is entirely natural for humans to want to go to sleep about seven hours after they have awakened. But as the internal rhythms of the body call out for rest, the efficiency of the modern workplace demands continued exertion.
Q. What is happening in the body that it craves rest after lunch?
A. First, the 24-hour cycle of the body, or its circadian rhythm, is naturally in a resting phase at this time. In the afternoon, it happens to converge with another physiological cycle known as homeostatic that measures the amount of time spent awake and that is also pushing for a rest.
Add the effects of food, which can also induce drowsiness, and an overpowering desire to sleep may result.
Q. Do all people experience the post-lunch dip?
A. The effect may be natural, but not everyone experiences it with equal intensity, said David F. Dinges, a professor and sleep scientist at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine.
A few people say they dont feel the dip at all, while others about 15 percent to 20 percent of the population, he estimates are closet nappers. These are the ones who steal into empty rooms or their parked cars, or fall asleep at their desks, because they cant fight off the urge to close their eyes.
Often, these people are ashamed of their behavior because it is associated with laziness, Dr. Dinges said. But by giving in to the urge, they are actually improving the quality of their work.
Q. Can being drowsy at work affect productivity and quality?
A. Yes. A study of drivers found that more car accidents occur during the afternoon dip than at noon or 7 p.m., Dr. Dinges said.
Few studies have been done on drowsiness in the workplace, but it seems likely that more errors in judgment are also occurring in offices, on factory floors and in other work environments at this time.
If possible, workers who are unable to take a nap should try to perform more mundane tasks during the dip, and save projects that require the greatest accuracy, mental acuity and creativity for other times of the day, said Fred W. Turek, a biology professor and director of the Center for Sleep and Circadian Biology at Northwestern University.

The Lenovo Thinkpad X1 ticks all the boxes if you're looking for a sturdy business notebook.
By SUBASHINI SELVARATNAM email@example.com
ONE look at the Lenovo ThinkPad X1, you will know it is a notebook for business professionals. This is because the X1 comes in a plain black chassis that gives you that business look-and-feel.
However, at just 17mm thick, it is definitely one of the thinnest notebooks that I have reviewed.
Despite its thinness, the X1 is a sturdy notebook with a well-made chassis. The notebook's hinge is designed in such a way that it allows the screen to be opened until the notebook is perfectly flat. Lenovo claims the X1 has passed eight military specifications relating to durability and thus gives mobile professionals the confidence to work anywhere with it.
One of the features that I like about the notebook is the 13.3in display, which is made of Corning Gorilla Glass that is scratch-resistant. I tried to scratch the display with my car keys but not a scratch appeared.
Pleasant experience
The first thing you notice when you power on the X1 is how fast it boots up - in less than 30 seconds, you will be on the Windows desktop, ready to go. Typing documents on the notebook's keyboard was a pleasant experience. The keys are well spaced-out and there is ample space on the palm rest area that makes it easier for you to type.
All the function keys on the notebook are also easily accessible and convenient. Some of the function keys that came in handy include the ones for finding and replacing a word throughout the document pages and saving files instantly. You also get the standard shortcuts such as adjusting volume, mute and adjusting the brightness of the screen.
It is worth mentioning that the keyboard is spill resistant - I accidentally spilt some water on the keyboard, and the water did not seep deeper into the keyboard. All I did was quickly wipe the keyboard with a dry cloth, and continued typing the document as if the problem never occurred.
The notebook has a track point, which some may love or hate. However, if you are not used to it, you are better off using the standard touchpad, which is pretty good. You can also switch on the keyboard's backlight when you are typing in the dark.
The X1 also comes with the ThinkVantage Toolbox, which is a suite of programs that offers system health, security and networking, and diagnostics, to ensure the notebook is "healthy." For security purposes, you will also find a fingerprint reader on the notebook.
The X1 can also handle HD videoclips and movies. I played some 720p videoclips several times using Windows Media Player and the notebook played them beautifully without any hiccups.
Despite being built for business, the X1 comes with Dolby Home Theatre v4 sound, which when coupled with the 13.3in high-definition display and built-in speakers, makes for a decent entertainment machine.
Watching movies and listening to music was quite a pleasant experience - the video quality is good while the audio is loud and clear. No complaints in this department. If you want to watch a movie on a larger screen, you can connect the notebook to a HDTV via HDMI-out.
When used for watching videos, surfing the Internet, listening to music and wordprocessing, the battery lasted for only about three hours. I have to say that it was a bit disappointing as I expected the battery to last for another 30 minutes at least.
Having said that, if you charge the battery for 30 minutes or so, you get up to 80% of the battery charged, which might just be enough time for you to type a quick document before you board a plane or attend an urgent meeting.
The X1 is a sturdy notebook that comes with all the necessary features that you want in a business-class notebook and more.
The only complaint that I have is the rather short battery life and the premium price tag. But having said that, you will be getting a sturdy business-class notebook with solid specifications.
Pros: Sturdy; good specifications; good video and sound quality; rapid battery charging.
Cons: Short battery life.
THINKPAD X1 (Lenovo) Business notebook Processor: Intel Core i5-2520M (2.5GHz) Memory: 4GB DDR3 SDRAM Display: 13.3in HD Super Bright display (1,366 x 768-pixels) Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 3000 Storage: 320GB Connectivity: WiFi 802.11bgn, 10/100 Ethernet port, Bluetooth Ports/slots: Three USB ports (1 x USB 3.0, 1 x eSATA combo, 1 x USB 2.0), memory card reader, headphone/microphone jack, HDMI and mini DisplayPort video outputs Battery: Four-cell battery Operating system: Microsoft Windows 7 Professional 64-bit Other features: Integrated HD 720p camera and HD microphones, Backlit keyboard, 6-row precision keyboard Dimensions (w x d x h): 13.3in x 9.1in x 0.8in Weight: 1.72kg Price: RM5,999 Rating: 3.5 Review unit courtesy of Lenovo Malaysia, 1-800-18-2388

Murtagh's Gift to Ellen from Outlander
I caught a strange nonmetallic gleam in the depths of the box, and pointed. "What's that?"
"Oh, those," she said, dipping into the box again. "I've never worn them; they don't suit me. But you could wear them — you're tall and queenly, like my mother was. They were hers, ye ken."
They were a pair of bracelets. Each made from the curving, almost-circular tusk of a wild boar, polished to a deep ivory glow, the ends capped with silver tappets, etched with flowered tracery.
"Lord, they're gorgeous!" I've never seen anything so…so wonderfully barbaric."
Jenny was amused. "Aye, that they are. Someone gave them to Mother as a wedding gift, but she never would say who. My father used to tease her now and then about her admirer, but she wouldna tell him, either, just smiled like a cat that's had cream to its supper. Here, try them."
The ivory was cool and heavy on my arm. I couldn't resist stroking the deep yellow surface, grained with age.
"Aye, they suit ye," Jenny declared. "And they go wi' that yellow gown, as well. Here are the earbobs — put these on, and we'll go down."
Diana Gabaldon, Outlander (Chapter 31)

5 tips for creating a statement piece (when you can't afford statement piece prices)
1. Paint an outdated piece an unexpected color. #15 would look fantastic in bright yellow with nickel hardware. Pair it with charcoal bed linens, and voila!
2. Bring a little print into the picture by applying wallpaper to the drawer fronts. Design*Sponge featured a great tutorial on just how to do this. Perfect for any piece with flat-fronted drawers.
3. Stencil words or numbers on simple drawers for a truly font-tastic look.
4. For a more glamorous look, apply mirrored insets to the tabletop or drawer fronts. #6 would look especially nice with a mirrored top treatment.
5. Change the hardware. Maybe you can't afford a dresser from Anthropologie, but how about splurging on a few knobs from their fabulous hardware collection? An AT favorite and great candidate for all of the above, #14 virtually screams, "New knobs!"

I remember vividly seeing this video for the first time while I was in middle school and without even realizing what I was feeling being so, so turned on by Reznor writhing around all wrapped up in black leather.
I would fall to sleep inventing scenarios where I found him all bruised and scraped in a strange dungeon and I would nurse him back to health and then we'd cuddle, nothing sexual.
And then years later when similar fantasies became sexual and the internet opened up the world of BDSM porn, it all made sense.

After almost a decade of unparalleled success in the Auckland property market New Zealand real estate agent Marnie Adams prefers to let the results speak for themselves.
As a residential specialist Marnie has sold over seven hundred million dollars of premium real estate consistently marking her out as one of the leading realtors in New Zealand.
Initially entering the industry for a new challenge, Marnie exceeded all expectations to be recognised as her company's top residential sales agent in Auckland Central within a year.
Building on this rapid success in residential real estate Marnie has been involved in the sale of New Zealand properties at the highest end of the market leading to further accolades on a national level.

The book draws on her experience as an agent dealing with luxury real estate listings and as a senior manager in the business world to provide insights on how to work smarter and improve sales performance.
Marnie's proven ability to connect emotionally and focus on her clients ensures that long after the sale is closed she is still remembered by all those she has encountered.

If you are looking for someone who will treat your home as her biggest asset look no further than Marnie Adams for the outcome you desire.

Why The Raptors Traded Leandro Barbosa
On trade deadline day, the Toronto Raptors made two moves to bring their roster down to 13 players and neither move made a whole lot of sense from an on-the-court perspective, at least not on the surface. The following statements were released by the team.
"The Toronto Raptors announced Thursday they have traded guard Leandro Barbosa to the Indiana Pacers for a 2012 second-round draft pick and cash considerations."
"The Toronto Raptors announced Thursday they have waived guard Anthony Carter."
While Carter had been permitted to return home while the Raptors looked for other opportunities for him to play, Barbosa was the Raptors best performer off the bench and the subject of numerous trade rumors involving teams in need of shooting guard help.
"Leandro's talent is obviously undeniable," said Raptors President and General Manager Bryan Colangelo. "What he was doing for our team providing a lot of scoring punch off the bench was certainly something that was intriguing to some of the teams out there that are making a run at the playoffs or are contenders."
Barbosa has played 100 games for Toronto, averaging 12.8 points and leading the bench in scoring 60 times, but what was most impressive about this veteran was his demeanor both on and off the court. Barbosa is a genuinely upbeat and positive person who loves to play the game.
"Leandro has unique and special ability as a basketball player, but he's an even better person away from the game."
Also, Barbosa gave every indication that he liked playing for the Raptors and his departure via free agency was hardly a sure-thing. So why did the Raptors send this likeable, productive veteran on an expiring contract to Indiana for a second-round pick and some cash?
"I had a lot of discussion with Leandro directly," Colangelo said. "We talked about what would be an interesting or good situation for him. We concluded that we would do it only if it made sense for both sides and I think he did have a preference to stay.
"I'm happy for him to get the opportunity to join a playoff team as he heads into free agency."
It's easy to see how Barbosa helps the Pacers and he probably would like another shot at a deep playoff run, but neither of these situations does much for the Raptors, as Colangelo admits.
"I viewed this as a great opportunity for Leandro to go to a playoff team, a young upstart team that really does need some scoring punch off the bench right now. It is an Eastern Conference team and that would normally not be something that I'd like to do, take care of a team like that, but this is really a positive situation, not only for Leandro but positive for us."
As Barbosa was only ever a positive force for the Raptors, this isn't a case of addition by subtraction, and a late second round draft pick is not normally of much value, so the positive impact must be coming a little further down the road and Colangelo spared no effort in explaining how this trade benefited his team.
"There is going to be some talk that this was about perhaps taking a piece away from the team – that's not the case. This was really about creating that flexibility and also developing some of (our) other players, but at the end of the day, we are taking some talent away and we will have to see which players step up and how that affects the draft status."
Colangelo has said from the beginning of the season that this year was all about developing their young talent, determining who to keep and hitting the ground running next season. He has also said they plan on adding a high draft pick. It has been easy to observe how Carter was taking point guard minutes away from Jerryd Bayless and Gary Forbes and conclude that Carter was in the way. A similar observation could be made about Barbosa, except in his case, Barbosa still has at least several highly productive years ahead of him in the NBA.
"It allows us to open up a tremendous amount of flexibility as we go into what I'll call the postseason pre-draft, pre-free agency trade season," Colangelo said. "It also enables us to make sure that we are giving every opportunity to observe and play the young players that are on this team and that's Jerryd Bayless and Gary Forbes so we can see what they bring to the table as we make decisions on their situations."
So the move lets the young guys play more and opens the door to the unusual pre-free agency period trade, but what else might this move do for the Raptors?
"We have had this draft really well-covered and well-scouted from an early date," Colangelo said. "During the lockout, there was a lot more time for us to spend on the road and there were also a bulk of games in a condensed schedule that made it very easy to go out and see a lot of the top prospects early.
"There is a lot at stake as we close this season down and look at that draft and prepare for that draft, but based on our current record and based on our projected season finish, we are going to stand in a position to add another quality talent, possibly a top five talent to this team."
There is no doubt that the Raptors are not as good a team without Barbosa as they were with him and this move might help Colangelo preserve that top five pick in the draft, unless of course Bayless and Forbes perform well. Seems like a win-win situation.
This trade deadline day, the Raptors helped a playoff bound Eastern Conference opponent get stronger, but as Colangelo describes, Toronto did get something out of the deal. Salary cap space to use for trades between the end of the season and the start of free agency, playing time to evaluate Bayless and Forbes and possibly a means to maintain or improve their spot in the NBA draft lottery. Barbosa will be missed, but the trade is in keeping with Colangelo's plan for this season, even if the direct return of a late second-round pick seems rather meager.

Chat With Ron Shandler - Transcript
Submit your questions or read the transcript here
Thanks for participating!
I am not a big fan of chats where the moderator steamrolls through dozens upon dozens of questions with one-word responses.
"Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he'll eat forever." That's how I conduct my chats. I am all about providing the insight you need to make future decisions on your own.
However, the other goal during my hour is to provide answers to as many questions as possible (I shoot for 20-25). It's a challenge to provide a high quantity of high quality responses. So I ask you to keep a few things in mind when you submit a question. The queues here are long; adhering to the following will significantly increase the odds of getting your question answered:
1. Keep it concise, but include enough contextual information for me to construct a reasoned response. I automatically pass on any question that takes me longer than 10 seconds to read.
2. Include one question per submission. Some folks ask me 2-3 questions at a time. I'll typically pass on those.
3. Do not ask me questions that would require more than 1-2 minutes of research. I will click "Delete" if you ask me to rank 10 players or ask open ended questions like, "What free agents should I go after in my 10-team mixed league?"
4. These chats are open to everybody in the universe. However, if your question contains enough buzzwords to let me know you've come from BaseballHQ.com, I'll try to bump you up the list.

Ours is a government of the people, by the people, for the people.
It may be time to add turned over to the people, too -- if the volunteerism of a few kind people, companies and philanthropies is any indication.
As conflict between Congress and the White House has wrought a partial government shutdown, several big-hearted individuals and organizations have stepped forward with time and cash to provide services that Uncle Sam now can't.
Death benefits
It is called the ultimate sacrifice, but a soldier giving his or her life for the United States wasn't prompting the Pentagon to deliver benefits to surviving family members.
So, stepping in is an organization that few Americans outside the military had heard of until now: the Fisher House Foundation.
The charity operates 62 residences for injured service members and has served 180,000 military families since 1990. It is now guaranteeing surviving relatives "the full set of benefits they have been promised, including a $100,000 death gratuity payment," Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said.
In the meantime, Congress is finalizing an agreement to resume paying survivor benefits, including the $100,000 payment.
$5 gift cards
An East Coast grocery chain on Thursday began distributing $500,000 worth of $5 gift cards to food banks in three cities in North Carolina because the pantries expect long lines in the wake of a suspended federal program serving low-income pregnant women and new mothers with children under age 5.
The suspended federal aid is part of the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children, called WIC.
The food banks can give the $5 gift cards -- redeemable at Food Lion stores -- to any family in need, said company spokeswoman Christy Phillips-Brown. Food Lion has 1,100 stores in 10 Eastern states.
"I'm heading right now to the Charlotte food banks," Phillips-Brown said on Thursday afternoon. The other cities to receive the gift cards will be Raleigh and Winston-Salem, she said.
"This is important to us because we don't want families having to choose between paying rent or buying baby formula," she said.
Impoverished preschoolers
It took a billionaire couple to keep Head Start classrooms open for 7,000 low-income children in six states.
Laura and John Arnold are giving $10 million to ensure the early childhood education program remains open in Alabama, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina and Mississippi.
Head Start provides schooling to 1 million low-income U.S. children under age 5 in an effort to prepare them for kindergarten and subsequent grades. When Head Start programs close, parents often miss work or must find alternative care for their children.
The nonprofit Head Start Association said it will repay the Arnolds if the government, after the shutdown, provides funding to keep programs operational for a year.
Feeding the furloughed
A food bank is coming to the rescue of more than 2,200 workers at one of the shuttered U.S. parks -- the Grand Canyon National Park -- as well as 1,200 employees in the private hospitality sector who depend on an open park for business.
Non-mandated federal employees don't have a paycheck. And workers in nearby hotels and restaurants are also hurt by the loss of tourism.
So, the St. Mary's Food Bank Alliance in Phoenix has begun weekly distribution of emergency food boxes to workers strained by the Grand Canyon's shutdown.
Beverly Damore, president and CEO of the alliance, recalled how one boy found a can of pork and beans in one box. He held it aloft "like a prize," she said in a videotaped statement.
"He was holding it with joy on his face. He so clearly needed that food," Damore said.

Laser resurfacing is a cosmetic procedure that renews the skin by removing aged or damaged skin. The laser's intense heat destroys the skin's outer layer (epidermis) and heats the underlying layer (dermis). As the wound heals, new skin forms that's smoother and tighter.

Individuals trained in Health Information Management can choose from many different career paths since they have knowledge in science, business and information technology. HIM professionals work in a variety of settings including: healthcare facilities, consulting firms, government agencies, insurance companies, healthcare IS/IT vendors, and pharmaceutical companies.
Those entering the field with an associate degree from Herzing University will be eligible to take AHIMA's Registered Health Information Technician (RHIT) credential. They will be prepared for employment in occupations such as:
Graduates of Herzing's Bachelor of Science in Health Information Management program will not only master the core coding, health sciences and general education requirements, they will also possess a solid understanding of business and management principles and how those are applied to the healthcare field, specifically in the area of medical records and health information documentation. Graduates will be eligible to take AHIMA's Registered Health Information Associate (RHIA) credential.
Individuals with a bachelor's degree in Health Information Management may gain entry-level employment in one of the following areas:
After receiving some experience in the field, career advancement opportunities include:
For Health Information Management professionals, salaries depend on the individual's level of education, time and type of experience in the field, credentials earned, and geographic location.
The American Health Information Management Association posted the results of their member salary survey from 2008. Review their findings at AHIMA Salary Survey [1].
Health Information Managers typically work in a clean, comfortable office environment and receive a comprehensive benefit package that includes health insurance, paid vacation, and a retirement savings plan such as profit-sharing or 401(k). However, some Health Information Management professionals choose to work as a consultant for many different organizations, in which case benefits packages vary.
As this position carries a lot of responsibility, work weeks may often extend beyond 40 hours without overtime pay. Some travel may be required to satellite facilities.
Health Information Management professionals advance in this field by gaining experience, moving to a larger organization where responsibilities are increased, obtaining a higher degree, or earning additional industry certifications.

my layout for the scrap and chat
Here's the link for my layout:
In case I didn't do that right, the title is woolly bear. I haven't figured out how to insert photos all of the time yet, sorry. I know it would be easier to see it at the same time you are reading this. :)
I used some of the elements for more than one category. I hope that is Ok.
I did use a shortcut for some of them. I don't know how to do worn and torn yet. I was trying to find one of Lynn's things but I had computer issues recently and that file wasn't loaded again yet., so I used a ready made item by wetfish designs. That is the bottom edge item with the cardboard look, the ribbon, the gray paper. That was all one thing already put together.
I used a lot of TMA Designs because that is my daughter Lynn's things and I am most familiar with them!
Here is the list of what I used.
1-Date line-that is by Tricia Curtis
2-Trio of colors-Blues and greens, but I also used pinks to tie in with Amelia's outfit.
3-Vellum- the aqua tag in the bottom right
4-Greenery- well I changed this a little and used fall colrs- not green, but I figured that was OK
5-Word art- FALL
6-Glitter-a little aqua along the bottom
7-Frame-Around the little owl
8-Worn/torn-that was part of the wetfish element
9-ribbon-also part of the wetfish element
10-polka dots-on the belly of the owl
11-gradients-the little square accent papers
12-black and white-the eyes of the owl
13-something cute-Amelia and Brandon-or you could count the owl
14-sign-the info on the photo
15-multiple photos
17-something suspended-Dancing princess Designs
18-edge treatment-also wetfish designs element
19-20-something unexpected-the flair at the bottom. I thought i gave the photo a unifying touch of color-Dancing Princess Designs. This is also my item of choice because there are a lot of flairs in the shoppe right now.
I really had fun doing this. It was something new for me. I look forward to seeing what other people come up with!
Sorry I didn't use more from your shop. I will have to look here more often!
Thanks again for hosting the challenge.

Changes At W Magazine: W Magazine - which doesn't have an editor-in-chief - will soon be searching for one after Conde Nast's plan to cut the magazine's ties to WWD. The two publications were known for sharing staff, Bridget Foley and Patrick McCarthy most notably, with the exception of W's publisher, Gina Sanders. Senior staff of W, including Foley and McCarthy, will now work exclusively for WWD. W Magazine, which was down 45.8% in ad sales for 2009, also was removed from Conde Nast subgroup Fairchild Fashion Group. Conde Nast CEO Chuck Townsend says, "This formally establishes a structure for W consistent with our other consumer magazine titles, and allows FFG the autonomy to focus on their core business-to-business publications and related businesses."

I had been planning this shoot for months and after multiple wardrobe stylists failed to capture my vision, I went out there and tracked every piece of clothing down. This opened up a whole new door for me because I will style ALL of my own shoots from here on out. Immediately, I thought of Luccia to be the model because she is so easy to work with and she'll do what it takes to get the shot. I also wanted to give Karina a HUGE thanks for doing the make-up at last minute. I literally contacted her one day before we shot and she delivered!

Vocational training for former LTTE cadres |
Wednesday, 05 August 2009 | |
Vocational and Technical Training Minister Piyasena Gamage who made an inspection tour in Polonnaruwa, Welikanda area recently has made arrangements to acquire a land of 50 acres in extent belonging to Mahaweli Authority to set up a farm to provide training facilities for the youth held in Detention Camps. This follows a request made by President Mahinda Rajapaksa to the Minister to take steps to provide vocational training facilities to the youth in these camps. President also emphasised the necessity to launch agricultural courses suitable to the areas concerned. Nearly 188 leading LTTE members have been detained at Welikanda Centre and they are to be given vocational training in four courses shortly. Steps have been taken to get the assistance of the Livestock Ministry and the Agriculture Ministry to launch these courses and instructors from Polonnaruwa Technical College will also be deployed in this direction. During the inspection tour, Minister also gave a patient hearing to the detainees. The detainees also expressed their joy and satisfaction at the visit made by the minister and his officials to look into their problems. They also explained to the minister that they looked forward to get back to their villages after receiving the training and lead a peaceful life with their parents and family members.

Feature Descriptions (and samples)
The following brief feature descriptions describe the features in the table above, and provide links to live examples and documentation.
Client Features (Summary): SmartClient LGPL and Smart GWT include all in-browser components, including all UI components and all client-side databinding systems, with the sole exception of the UI components involved in the Analytics module (CubeGrid and Chart) and communications code designed specifically for interactions with the SmartClient Server Framework. A complete system ready for binding with any REST or WSDL services or with GWT-RPC.
Server Features (Summary): Server features are based on the SmartClient Java Server Framework, a set of standard Java .jars, servlets, jsp tags, tools and other resources that work with any standard J2SE or J2EE servlet engine or application server and with any standard Java IDE. The SmartClient Server Framework can be installed into existing projects and is compatible with popular Java frameworks such as Struts or Spring.
Adaptive Filter & Sort: Combines large dataset handling with adaptive use of client-side filtering and sorting: to handle datasets that are too large to download completely in advance, filtering and sorting initially take place on the server. When all matching records have been loaded client-side, SmartClient automatically & transparently switches to client-side filtering and sorting. This provides immediate responsiveness and dramatically reduced server load. Works with any server platform; Java Servers with SmartClient Pro or better have built-in support for server-side filtering for SQL, JPA, and Hibernate. (Adaptive Filtering examples: SmartClient; SmartGWT. Adaptive Sort examples: SmartClient; SmartGWT.)
Pluggable Data Model: UI components support a "pluggable" data model that provides both a description of the data (fields, types, validation rules, etc) and operations to fetch and modify data. This "pluggable" data model approach means user interfaces can be re-used with any data provider without change. Screen designs such as master-detail navigation can be easily captured as custom components that are then usable with any data model — you can even swap the data model on the fly. (Examples: SmartClient; SmartGWT.)
Drawing: Cross-browser vector graphics engine, without browser plugins, with full drag and drop support and interoperability with other SmartClient components. (Examples: SmartClient; SmartGWT.)
Server Data Binding: Provides a simple Java API for handling requests for data from SmartClient visual components. Automatically parses complex nested search criteria, multi-level sorts, batch requests (multiple operations in one request), binary uploads, optimistic concurrency information (for "long transactions") and other data into a Java request object with clean OO APIs. Can filter response data without the need for separate DTOs (Data Transfer Objects). This avoids hand-written code for request/response handling, which cannot reasonably be generated by eg JAX-B - see FAQ
Requests can be routed to Java classes via simple XML declarations, with a simple architecture for creating custom data connectors which are reusable across different entities. Can intelligently populate Java beans with validated request data, including automatic handling for nested objects, Enums and Generics, and optional XPath-based mapping between request/response data and Java structures.
(Examples: XML routing of requests to methods: SmartClient; SmartGWT. Custom data connectors: SmartClient; SmartGWT. Reusable custom data connectors: SmartClient; SmartGWT. Populating nested objects: SmartClient; SmartGWT. XPath-based structure mapping: SmartClient; SmartGWT.)
Server-side Validation: Both client and server validation are driven from a single XML declaration, with a built-in set of validators similar to XML Schema or JPA restrictions. (Examples: SmartClient; SmartGWT.) Custom client and server-side validators can be added, and a powerful expression language can turn complex cross-object validations into one-line declarations. (Examples: SmartClient; SmartGWT.) Server contact is automatically managed for validators that require it. (Examples: SmartClient; SmartGWT.)
UI Generation: Automatic generation of grid, form, detail and tiled views from Java Beans or SQL tables. Unlike "scaffolding" approaches that leave you maintaining generated code, generation is dynamic, and you can customize any detail of the generated components without losing automatic generation. Without this capability, every screen of your application duplicates the information you already have in your server data model, leading to highly redundant, brittle applications. See the QuickStart Guide, Server Framework Chapter, first section.
Declarative Security: Attach role-based security declaratively to DataSource operations. UI components are security-aware and automatically disable UI for disallowed functions. Zero code integration with J2EE Security, Spring Security, or JAAS. Documentation can be found here and here. Also available as a preview for Enterprise Edition is a pre-built login process and user administration interface. To begin using this functionality now, take advantage of the Jump Start program to receive training and starter code.
Excel Export: Allows any grid component to export its current dataset as an Excel spreadsheet or CSV file without the need to write any server code. Exported data respects the user's current column order, sort direction, search criteria, and shown vs. hidden fields. Excel spreadsheets include correct data types (numbers, dates) and custom data hiliting rules. Works with any DataSource type — SQL, JPA, Hibernate, or custom. (Examples: SmartClient; SmartGWT.)
PDF Export:
Export any screen or set of widgets as a .pdf without the need to write any server code, with
just a single API call (RPCManager.exportContent(widget)
). Even works with charts,
or with a mixture of widgets and charts. As with other export features, custom server code can
take exported PDFs and attach them to emails, save them to databases, or forward them to other
systems (Examples:
Basic Connectors (SQL, JPA & Hibernate): A one-line declaration enables all CRUD operations (create, retrieve, update, delete) against any SQL table, SQL View, JPA entity or Hibernate entity. No server code is required. Java business logic may be added to modify requests before they are executed by the connector, modify responses, or take any other action. For an overview, see the QuickStart Guide, Server Framework Chapter. Note: Basic connectors enable query-by-example search; for Advanced Search, purchase Power Edition or better.
- Hibernate Connector in action: SmartClient, SmartGWT examples.
- Auto-derived DataSources in SmartClient: Hibernate and JPA examples.
- Auto-derived DataSources in Smart GWT EE: Hibernate and JPA examples.
Queuing: Queuing allows multiple data load or save requests from different UI components to be transparently combined into a single HTTP request with guaranteed in-order execution. Queuing makes it easy to reuse data operations across different screens and in different combinations without needing to write screen-specific code to combine operations together. Queuing also makes it simple to define transaction boundaries when data in different UI components need to be saved together. (Examples: SmartClient; SmartGWT.)
"Reify" Mockup Importer: Reify takes mockups from Balsamiq and turns them into working screens backed by clean, clear code that is easy to extend and customize. Instead of having developers painstakingly re-create the layout shown in a mockup, just use Reify to import it - a much more efficient development process. Learn more..
File Upload & Binary Storage: Single and multiple file uploads can be handled as normal DataSource operation, including normal handling of validation errors. Optional automatic storage to SQL, Hibernate or JPA (no server code required). (example)
HTTP Proxying: The HTTP Proxy allows an application to access to web services hosted on remote servers, which are normally inaccessible to web applications due to the sa me origin policy. Once installed, the HTTP Proxy provides transparent proxying of requests without further configuration; public sites may wish to whitelist specific services that may be accessed via proxy, for security reasons. (Examples: SmartClient; SmartGWT.)
Visual Builder: A drag and drop screen design tool that allows codeless creation of applications, complete with event handling and data connectivity. Learn more..
HTML5 Charts: Get high-quality charts pre-integrated with Smart GWT components. Our HTML5-based charting engine works in all supported browsers, including Internet Explorer and mobile browsers, with no plug-ins required and no requirement to write browser-specific code. (Examples: SmartClient; SmartGWT.) Note: prior to Smart GWT 3.0, the HTML5 Charts feature required Power Edition + Analytics. In Smart GWT 3.0 and onward, only Pro Edition is required.
Export Charts: Our HTML5 charts, and other widgets based on DrawPane, can now be exported to PNG and other image formats. Charts are also fully supported for PDF export, so you can export a grid full of data and a chart visualizing that data to the same PDF document. (PNG examples: SmartClient; SmartGWT. PDF examples: SmartClient; SmartGWT.)
Advanced Search: Complex searches assembled via the FilterBuilder component can be executed against SQL, JPA, or Hibernate without the need to write any code. (SmartClient example) (Smart GWT example)
SQL/HQL Templating: Allows the SQL or HQL queries automatically generated by the SQL and Hibernate connectors to be easily customized directly in the DataSource definition, by overriding specific clauses from the automatically generated query, without the need to write Java code. SQL Templating makes it trivial to use SQL joins while retaining built-in features like advanced search (SmartClient, SmartGWT examples). Even complex reporting queries can still leverage search, data paging, and other built-in features (SmartClient, SmartGWT examples).
Automatic Transactions: When using SQL and Hibernate connectors, any batch of save operations submitted to the server is automatically combined into a database transaction. Since UI interactions such as Mass Update and Multi-Row Drag and Drop automatically submit a batch of save operations to the server, these and many other UI operations are automatically transactional in Power Edition and above.
Batch Uploader: An end user interface for batch upload of data as a pre-built, customizable component. User can upload data, have it validated, make corrections, and save the data to a target DataSource. Supports a variety of upload formats and any data store that can be connected to SmartClient. (Examples: SmartClient; SmartGWT.)
Network Performance Module: A set of services designed for enhanced delivery of SmartClient applications in WAN, internet and extranet environments, including:
- Background download of the SmartClient runtime and application resources while users are interacting with a login/registration page, splash screen or other non-SmartClient content
- Automatic compressed delivery of all of compressible content, including browser-specific workarounds where required.
- On-the-fly JavaScript stripping, combining and obfuscation driven from XML configuration.
Network Performance Module Documentation
Analytics Module: Specialized components for viewing, navigating and editing very large, multi-dimensional data sets (also known as data cubes) for business intelligence, analytics and reporting applications. (Basic CubeGrid samples: SmartClient, SmartGWT. CubeGrid samples with load on demand and charting: SmartClient, SmartGWT.)
Real-time Messaging Module: Real-time data delivery via HTTP streaming (aka "Comet") for monitoring, command & control, trading desk and real-time collaboration applications involving time-sensitive, continuously updated data. SmartClient Messaging supports data delivery rates sufficient for continuous full-screen refresh and works through firewalls, HTTP proxies and other intervening network devices that can cause issues with other HTTP Streaming / Comet implementations. Supports codeless integration with JMS (Java Message Service) and a custom connector architecture for other message sources. (Examples: SmartClient; SmartGWT.)
Optional Modules: (Optional) features are available for purchase at an additional cost. The Analytics Module and Real-Time Messaging Module are only available as paid additions to Power and above licenses and cost $500 each per developer.
Indemnity, Warranty, custom terms: (Not strictly a feature) Enterprise licenses come with the legal protections typically required by large enterprises for risk management reasons. Exact terms can be modified to suit your organization's legal requirements.
Batch DataSource Generator: A supported tool, with source code included, that can produce SmartClient DataSource definitions automatically from database metadata, Hibernate mappings and Javabeans. This tool uses the same technology as the SQL Wizard and Hibernate Wizard, and is specifically designed to be easily extensible to suit your own needs.
Visual Builder Team License: Allows use of Visual Builder within an organization as a central design and development hub on a shared server, where users can collaborate on a shared design by simply emailing a URL. Visual Builder eliminates waste and duplication in the design process: instead of the throw-away "wireframes" produced by typical design tools, prototypes built in Visual Builder are real applications, ready to deploy or to customize further inside traditional development tools. Learn more..
Portal Framework (Preview): User-reconfigurable portal-style layouts with automatic persistence of layout and portlet state, including filtering rules, hilighting rules and user-defined formula columns for grid-based portlets. Place anything in a Portlet via pluggable portlet API. Users can easily share saved layouts with team members. Ideal for lightweight BI (Business Intelligence) and other RIA portal applications. Already deployed at Isomorphic customers. To begin using this functionality now, take advantage of the Jump Start program to receive training and starter code. (SmartClient Example.)
Visual Builder OEM License: Allows a software
vendor to ship Visual Builder or parts of Visual Builder as a customization interface for a
SmartClient-based product. The underlying components of Visual Builder can be quickly
assembled into a variety of customization interfaces that allow your customers to edit specific
properties or specific areas of your application. SmartClient branding, terminology and
documentation can be suppressed or replaced so that you can deliver tools that seamlessly
fit your application and use terminology familiar to your users.
Visual Builder OEM is only available as a paid addition to Enterprise licenses, and requires
collaboration with Isomorphic. Please contact sales to get started.

Better for you
Page updated: 05/06/2013
Chedworth Suite is a 20 bedded specialist unit providing day surgery services to the population of Cheltenham and the surrounding area. We care for men and women undergoing a variety of surgical procedures as day cases. The unit also has 6 overnight beds for patients who may need an extended stay. The types of surgery undertaken include gynaecology, urology, vascular, general surgery and orthopaedic surgery. The procedures undertaken are incredibly varied, from hernia repairs, varicose vein surgery, circumcisions, hand and knee surgery and fertility investigations to minor procedures such as prostate biopsies and the removal of skin lesions.
The unit is staffed by qualified nurses who are supported by healthcare assistants. There is a ward manager (senior sister) in charge of the ward supported by a junior sister. There is also a lead nurse and deputy lead nurse who have oversight of the unit. Student nurses have placements on the unit and care for patients under the guidance of a qualified nurse.
The unit is opens Monday morning at 7.30am and closes Friday evening at 8pm. The unit is located at the back entrance of the hospital on the first floor in the Centre Block. Access to the carpark is via Keynsham Road.
On arrival to the Chedworth suite, please report to reception. The receptionist will take your name and let the nurses know you have arrived. You will be asked to have a seat in the waiting room until the nursing staff are ready to call you through. Day surgery patients for the morning lists will arrive in the unit at 8am, patients for the afternoon lists will arrive at 1pm.
Once you have been allocated a trolley, a nurse will come and introduce themselves and prepare you for theatre. This is the person responsible for your care, who you can ask questions of and who will support you through the day. If your nurse goes off shift, they will introduce you to the nurse taking over responsibility for your care. The nurse will also inform you where you are on the theatre list and give you a rough estimate of when you will go to theatre. An exact time cannot be given as procedures vary in length.
You can have a relative or friend stay with you until you go to theatre, then they will have to sit in the waiting area or return later when your surgery is completed. There is not space for more than one person to accompany you. We have single sexed bays, so if your relative or friend is of the opposite sex the curtains will be drawn around the trolley to give privacy to the other patients. No babies or children are allowed in the unit, so please ensure that childcare arrangements have been arranged prior to admission. There are no visiting times for the day patients as they are short stay. The visiting time for the patients staying overnight is from 6pm to 8pm.
Please be aware that the Trust is now a smoke free NHS. Smoking is not permitted in any building or within the grounds of any of our sites. Information and support is available to any patients who wish to stop smoking. Nicotine Replacement Therapy is available to help reduce your cravings during your stay.
You and your family will be informed of the best time to telephone for news following your surgery.
Telephone numbers: -
Main reception: 0300 422 3659
Female Bay: 0300 422 4739
Male Bay: 0300 422 4005
Annexe: 0300 422 2519
We run a nurse led pre-admission clinic to ensure a problem free admission and discharge for patients. Nurses assess the suitability of patients to undergo day surgery. An assessment will be performed which will include past medical history, regular medication, home circumstances and next-of-kin details. Blood pressure and pulse are checked and height and weight measured. All patients now undergoing day surgery are screened for MRSA. This clinic is a good opportunity for patients to get to know staff and to familiarise themselves with the unit. Patients are also encouraged to ask any questions or express any concerns they have.
We can hopefully reassure patients and answer any questions about day surgery . At the end of the appointment tests such as blood samples or ECG (heart trace) need to be done. If these are required, clear instructions on when and where to go will be given.
Chedworth Suite is also the location for a number of specialised clinics. These include Pain Clinics and Urology Clinics for cystoscopy (a look into the bladder), and prostate biopsy. There is also a nurse run clinic for bladder treatments.

You may not be able to take dimenhydrinate, or you may require a lower dose or special monitoring during treatment if you have any of the conditions listed above.
Dimenhydrinate is in the FDA pregnancy category B. This means that it is unlikely to harm an unborn baby. Do not take dimenhydrinate without first talking to your doctor if you are pregnant.
Dimenhydrinate passes into breast milk and may harm a nursing baby. Do not take dimenhydrinate without first talking to your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.

I Democrats demonize profit.
-- have Occupy Wall Street demonizing profit what's wrong with profit.
Nothing's wrong with profit and I think that that's the case we have to make the young people we have to show them that when you're making a profit.
Usually that means you're serving somebody the way they -- -- be served it's a great piece of information we always talk about profit as incentive.
We -- its information and in a world full of uncertainty.
We need that information -- our colleges themselves to blame though I mean some 63% of professors are liberal they're categorized as a liberal or even far left today.
When they're stay any talking to their classrooms are they talking it.
I'll tap profit that's it -- dirty word -- you know I think I give students a little credit here I think when they see -- humanities professor standing up in front of them saying profit as evil they're probably thinking.
You know what does this guy really know what he's been in the academy his whole career right I think the bigger issue is that proponents of free enterprise haven't made their case very compellingly.
We talk about markets in terms of efficiency all the time and that's true.
It's utterly uninspiring right we have to start telling the narrative about what businesses do in the world.
And how they serve people how to -- they help people with their daily life if you didn't have business and you only had nonprofit what would our world bit like that's right so much of the service we see around us all the time the things that make life better -- wouldn't be here.
-- -- great stuff I was so blown away by that I guess we have to open our eyes out young people view business exactly thank thank you are right.

MY NOT KOSHER SHALLOT-AND-THYME MATZO Recipe
- 1 1/2 1.5 1.5cups CUP_USVolumefinely ground semolina flour
- 1 1/2 1.5 1.5cups CUP_USVolumeall-purpose flour
- 2 2 2teaspoons TEASPOON_USVolumesalt
- 4 4 4eggs
- 1/2 .5 .5cup CUP_USVolumeextra-virgin olive oil
- 2 2 2tablespoons TABLESPOON_USVolumekosher salt
- 2 2 2tablespoons TABLESPOON_USVolumefresh thyme leaves, or 2 teaspoons dried
- 1/2 .5 .5cup CUP_USVolumefinely chopped shallots or onion
Instructions for My Not Kosher Shallot-and-Thyme Matzo Recipe
- Put the flours, salt, eggs, and half the olive oil in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the stainless-steel blade or a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook. Mix or process until the dough forms a ball.
- Turn out the dough into a clean bowl and cover with a damp kitchen towel. Leave to rest at room temperature for at least 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 400�F.
- Using a pasta machine or a rolling pin, roll out the dough until it is very thin, like a lasagna noodle (setting number 1 on the pasta machine, or as thin as possible without tearing). You should have approximately 6 sheets, each about 6 by 10 inches.
Place the dough on baking sheets and brush very lightly with the remaining olive oil. Sprinkle lightly with the salt, thyme, and shallots. Bake the matzo for about 10 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Makes about 6 sheets of matzo
This matzo, based on a recipe that appears in the Wolfgang Puck Cookbook, is by no means kosher, but it tastes fantastic! For our annual Passover Seder at Spago Beverly Hills, we bake them in our wood-fired pizza oven, and the guests love them. We even bake up extra so everyone gets to take some home. I like the matzo best when it's served still warm.

Did you mean?
I fly from Vancouver BC to Manila.
I leave Sat. Feb.1 at 10:45 pm, I fly non stop 14 hours to Manila, what day will it be in Manila when I land??
thank you.
We are driving from Seattle to Whistler in January. Where would be the best place to stop and stock up on supplies along the way? Thanks
I have a month to kill around the BC area in January and was thinking of spending some time snow boarding in Whistler. I don't have a working visa but was hopeful on getting an under the desk job or working in a hostel for the cost of staying there or something similar. Is there anywhere where this is possible? Cheers :)
