Hi everyone,
Has anyone out here heard that Insulet is now out of network with BCBS? I called the first of the year to give them my new insurance info and the lady told me that they did not carry BCBS. So I went to Edgepark and was about to call them back to place my order when Insulet called me and told me that they are in network with BCBS. So I placed my order with Insulet and now it's been 2 months and they have not process my claim. I've called twice asking them what is taking so long. The first time I called I was told it was sent to the wrong BCBS and that they resent the claim to the correct one. After another month and nothing was showing up I called again and then was told they are out of network. He then told me that Insulet is in the process of trying to renegotiate their contract.
Is there anyone else out here on BCBS and using Insulet or were you directed to a 3rd party to order your pods?
BCBS of North Carolina also does not have a contract with Insulet. I was told about it in January by Insulet. They tried to send me to Edgepark and said Edgepark would call me to set it up. After 3 weeks and no call from Edgepark, I started calling around and found Better Living Now. They called me right back and seemed responsive. I got my first shipment of pods from them in February, and will be getting my test strips from them also. So far, so good. BCBS is different in every state it seems. You have to stay on top of them like we have to do on everything related to this "diabetes thing"
Thanks everyone for the info. I was wondering if BCBS is different for each state. I guess I'm going to have to give Insulet a call back to see about getting my $400 deductible that I paid them in January and then switch over to Edgepark. I used them when I was on United Healthcare and they have me on file.
I just wish that Insulet didn't call me back in January telling me that they did carry BCBS then I wouldn't be in this situation with them.
It's so frustrating. You are right Hank you do have to stay on top of anything that is diabetes related.
I use BCBS of Montana and had been fighting with them since last August to approve the Omnipod for me. At the first of the year, I was told the same as you were with the exception that I would have to work with Edgepark to finish my appeal instead of Insulet. I highly recommend Edgepark as they did everything they could to get me the OmniPod and I am proud to say that I started on it this week! When Insulet told me that they would no longer be able to help me, I called Edgepark directly, got my rep's name, and have been in touch with him ever since. I hope that you get this figured out quickly! I know how frustrating it can be...
I can call Insulet to order my supplies but I have to go through a third party for billing. Its been that way when I had BCBS and even now with my new insurance of Cigna. Both are a pain in my butt.
I just tried to reorder from Insulet, which I have done many times with BC/BS of Texas. I was told that due to contracting issues, Insulet is now out of network, and I have to use a third party distributor to obtain in-network benefits.
I'm not happy. My experiences with third party distributors have been uniformly awful. The newest distributor (Byram) assured me on Wednesday that my new order of pods was on the way and that it would arrive on Thursday. On Saturday afternoon, I still do not have them.
Insulet needs to get this fixed.
Just to add to my previous post... . I called Byram today, and they told me that they did not actually have my shipment of pods shipped next-day as they had assured me. My pods will finally arrive tomorrow (i.e., almost two weeks after my first contact with Byram).
Again, Insulet needs to get this fixed.
Hi Jaybear. Sorry for the delay in getting back out here. I've been busy at work. I've used Edgepark in the past and only had one issue with them at the beginning, 3 years ago, but after that everything was great. They have a distribution center in Fort Worth and I would get my shipment the next day. But before I do anything I'm going to call BCBS of Texas to ensure that Edgepark is in-network with them. Like I said in my earlier post Insulet called me back and told me that they were in-network with BCBS so I'm going to verify before contacting anyone now.
Thanks everyone for your post.
Insulet contacted me and let me know that I needed to go through a 3rd party for my pods, for 2012.
It really depends on your insurance. I have BCBS Michigan with General Motors and they didn't even cover the Omnipod system until several of us fought and got coverage. It's a pain in the arse for sure. Good luck!!!
We have BCBS TX and get our supplies straight from Insulet. They've never said otherwise.

Thought as this forum has been useful to me in the past I would shed some light on this problem. My machine suffered from this exact problem this weekend and I have found what fails on the board and fixed mine.
Over time it appears that the capacitor that makes up part of the firing circuit to the Compressor relay fails. There are four relays on board, three black, one orange (its the orange one that we are interested in as this enables the compressor). The relays are enabled from the microprocessor on the board via a triac controlling the switching of live onto a diode bridge and through a resistor and capacitor on the neutral side. Over a period of time the capacitor will break down and won't be able to hold enough energy to fire the relay (door water solenoid problem) or enabling the cooling via the compressor.
The capacitors are four on a row, white in colour and have written on them .22/10 1.70MKP 250V~ this means that they are .22uf (micro farad or 220nf nano farad) with a 10% tolerance and are rated to 250vac.
What I know is that holding the PCB upright with the three black relays furthest from you, the four capacitors will be nearest to you. The far LEFT capacitor is to do with the icemaker ice eject mechanism, the far right capacitor is for the compressor. To test that this is your problem swap these two capacitors (outer two) and see if you machine starts to cool and that the compressor cuts in and out.
If this works for you replace the bad capacitor with a new one either from RS components or maplins (www.rswww.com or www.maplin.com). Make sure that you get the same capacitance but the voltage can be higher without any effect (I replaced mine with a 500vac one)
Please ensure that whislt working on the fridge that you have isolated the power supply and if you are not qualified call an engineer!! You will need a soldering iron and some solder to fix this.
I hope that this is helpfull to someone and should save you alot of money.

Where There Is Sorrow, There Is Holy Ground:
A September 11, 2001 Retrospective
September 11 - November 1, 2002
David Filderman Gallery, 9th floor, Axinn Library
Guest Curators:
Professor Geri E. Solomon, University Archivist/Interim Director, Long Island Studies Institute
Janelle Boucher, Graduate Intern, Processing Archivist, The September 11th Project
In this exhibit, we have attempted to depict the people of Long Island and their responses in the aftermath of tragedy. While much of the world focused on terrorists and terrorism, those of us closest to the actual disaster site needed to use all of our resources to simply cope with day-to-day life. Highways that were once pathways into the city, became available only to emergency personnel. Trains that once carried thousands to work in a rather mundane fashion, stood empty and unnecessary. And, people who had not ever considered themselves anything but ordinary citizens became heroes. Whether it was because of the backbreaking physical labor that they performed at "Ground Zero," or because they offered themselves as volunteers, or they made donations of food or donations of dollars, Long Islanders responded with their hearts.
Shortly after the events of September 11, 2001, Jerry Kessler, President of Friends for Long Island's Heritage called the Hofstra University Archives. He thought that it would be important for a repository to begin to collect documentation about Long Islanders reactions to those tragic events. The University agreed that it was imperative to store these items at a site that would be accessible to the Long Island community. The Long Island Studies Institute was deemed an appropriate site.
The September 11th Project Collection has grown each day since that time. It includes personal reflections, photographs, artistic renderings, audiotapes, objects, printed materials, and videotapes. The focus remains "Long Island-centric" and it reflects the spirit of hope and the caring nature of our communities. As the need for volunteers became great, greater still was the response of our emergency personnel, our firemen, our students, and the ordinary citizen. The collection documents the thoughts and prayers of our religious institutions, our educational institutions, and our businesses.

COSHOCTON, Ohio -- A Belle Valley man fell from an oil rig to his death early Thursday morning near West Lafayette.
Coshocton County Sheriff Tim Rogers told AVC News that 27-year-old John Roberts sustained fatal injuries after falling 50 feet from a rig platform just after 12:00 a.m. Thursday. Crews from the Coshocton County EMS and West Lafayette Fire Department responded immediately to the scene near County Road 5, but were unable to revive the victim. County Coronor Dr. Robert Gwinn pronounced Roberts dead at the scene. Gwinn says he ruled it an accidental death, stemming from severe head injuries.
Sources say Roberts was an employee of Senecaville-based FMS Drilling, Inc. Company officials could not be reached for comment on Thursday morning.
A complete evaluation of the accident will take about three to four weeks, and will include blood tests and a toxicology report, which are standard procedure for every accidental death.

The following leaflet was distributed by members of the Zabalaza Anarchist Communist Front (ZACF) and the Orlando West study circle on anarchism at a football tournament in an informal settlement in Soweto. Making the 2010 World Cup work for the poor and working classBut who really stands to benefit, and to profit, from the World Cup and its associated developments? Who could afford the Gautrain from the airport to Sandton? And who would be traveling from the airport to Sandton anyway, the worker or the businessman and tourist? Who was Rea Vaya built for? The soccer fan living in a shack in Protea South, who still has to pay for a taxi to Regina Mundi to get the Rea Vaya to Ellis Park to watch a World Cup match he or she cannot afford, or the tourist that wants to pop safely into Soweto to see how poor Africans live? Now, with the World Cup just around the corner, we have to ask ourselves who is really benefitting from South Africa hosting the games. Millions and millions of Rands that could have gone into service delivery and development have been spent on soccer stadiums that will probably never be filled again, after the World Cup. Even those workers that were fortunate enough to have a job preparing for the Cup are facing unemployment now that the stadiums are nearly completed, and even while they were working they were forced to go out on strike against low pay and poor conditions; against exploitation. Fifa, one of the richest corporations in the world, has banned informal traders from selling food and other produce anywhere near the stadiums, and only granted trading licenses to big companies such as Nandos and Steers. If the World Cup is really supposed to be for the people, and to alleviate poverty and create opportunities for the poor in South Africa, then why has the government not challenged this decision? Why is it not working to ensure that poor people from the communities surrounding the stadiums benefit by being able to trade at the stadiums?
Join us - a group of concerned soccer fans - on the sidelines after the match today for a discussion that will address these and other questions, and try to come up with an answer to the question: "How can we force the government to make the 2010 World Cup serve the interests of the poor and working class?".

Did owner of vicious pit bull pull switcheroo on animal control?
LONGVIEW, Wash. -- The owner of a vicious pit bull that attacked a little boy two weeks ago said she has finally turned the dog over to animal control officials.
The controversy is far from over, though, because questions still remain as to if the owner actually turned the dogs over.
The dog bit a 5-year-old neighbor boy recently and that boy lost a large part of his right leg in the attack. The boy also had to get a pair of rabies shots.
The description of the dog -- a grey and white pit bull -- loosely fits the same dog that has now bitten four people. That description is causing some confusion as to whether the dog that bit the boy is the same one who was turned over to animal control officials.
Figuring out the conundrum is Cowlitz County Animal Control Officer Mike Nicholson. He sees several pit bulls while he works. Some have to be kenneled away from the general population, which is the case of Lexi, the pregnant dog at the center of the controversy.
In late-August, the owner of the dog was asked why she would not give the dog to animal control so it could be tested for rabies. One man who was bitten by Lexi in April was asked if this was the correct dog. The man was adamant that the dog that bit him and Lexi were different dogs. A dozen neighbors were in agreement, as well.
One reason why people are so sure that Lexi is not the dog that bit the boy was because of her timid nature. Neighbors said the real dog definitely would have attacked. Now neighbors are trying to find out who this dog really belongs to.
"She tried to make us think this is the right dog," Nicholson said, referring to the dog's owner Kim Vasquez. "From my documentation that I have from my prior visit in April, this is not the dog."
But where's the real Lexi?
"I gave the dog to them to prove she didn't have rabies," Vasquez said, referring to animal control officials. "I'm complying with all of the laws. I'm getting insurance. I've gotten a kennel."
Vasquez and her son Nicholas showed pictures of a grey and white pit bull, reiterating that it's the same one at animal control and that it is, in fact, Lexi.
Nicholson said he's not going to give up until the right dog is in possession of animal control and he's got some backup. The Cowlitz County prosecutor's office now has reports that recommend Vasquez be charged with forging rabies records for the pit bull.
Vasquez has served time in prison for forgery and said she does not want to return to prison.

Honestly this wasn't my favorite. I felt like it clumped my lashes together and was really really hard to remove fully .
The thin brush really helps avoid clumping and the smudge that comes with repeated application. Great for the bottom lashes. Great daytime mascara. The tube is interesting too.
I really like this mascara. It's good at lengthening without being too bulky. It keeps my lashes separated nicely while adding some drama. If I didn't get a lot of mascara in boxes, I would probably have already purchased this item.
It shows up pretty good, doesn't clot and doesn't rub off. I have repeatedly rubbed my eyes and I never have black on my fingers or eyes. I do wish the applicator was flat
Just purchased my new Eyeko Skinny brush mascara! I do love it. The brush allows you to cover individual lashes without clumping. The formula is long lasting, with no "Raccoon eyes" later. Be sure to clean the eye shield between applications, or the excess will smudge on your skin and require a clean up. Nice product!
One of my favorite mascaras!!! This doesn't get clumpy and no other mascara has elongated my lashes like this one. Plus it comes in just the most precious little tune. What a wonderful feel good treat!
I really did not like this mascara at all. It was barely waterproof and very heavy on my lashes. Also, if I so much as thought of rubbing my eyes, it was all over my face. Total bust.
I love this mascara! It goes on well, makes your eyelashes super thick, and the skinny brush helps for error-free application. I look like I have false eyelashes with this mascara. Love, love, love it!
The skinny brush makes it easy to apply and control. It lengthens amazingly and puts volume without clumping. It stays on...and on! Doesn't flake off or smudge. You need a good eye makeup remover to get it off. I haven't used the guitar pick - will have to try it the next time. This has become my favorite mascara!
This mascara is bold enough to make your eyelashes look great from across the desk or table, but subtle enough that it's not clumpy or overly "made-up."

The pebbles are not man-made.

Stones will vary in size, shade, shape and texture; if you order two stones they will not match. We have taken a rough, organic product and left it in its natural state, engraving the type like a stamp in the stone. We hope you'll appreciate the uniqueness of these natural stones, and treasure them as a personalised keepsake.

Carlos Torano 1916 Cameroon Robusto Reviews [view details]
Give us YOUR review!Showing 1 through 10 of 16 reviews
"Not bad"
A medium-sweet cigar. The issues was uneven burn and the cigar was falling apart during the smoke, so the construction was an issue. The draw had no issues. All in all not a bad cigar but had some issues.
Anthony in California November 10, 2013
"had better"
This cigar was way too sweet and smoked too fast.
ben in Pittsburgh April 16, 2012
"Great cigar for a great price"
This is one of my favorites. Nice and smooth, smokes like an ultra premium without the price.
Tommy in Tecumseh, MI August 19, 2011
"A better than average cigar"
This was the second one that I tried with similar results. A better than average cigar that had a tight but good draw which made it last quite some time. The first one had some serious construction issues but this time around after sitting awhile they were much less. I must say that this cigar goes well with a crown and water...
Dave in North Carolina June 26, 2011
"Fell apart"
Cigar looked great, lit up nicely,smooth draw,BUT. Could barely keep it in one piece long enough to finish it.Construction a big drawbuck to me.
Ted in New Jersey March 20, 2011
"Dang fine cigar"
Seeing how beautifully packaged this was, I was thinking it must be covering something up. And it was... something truly great. This cigar has everything going for it. Great construction, perfect draw, full and complex flavor, great burn. I can't find a negative. I've become pretty picky with cigars and this one is top notch.
Jackson in California January 28, 2011
"Nice and Smooth, My personal Favorite"
I have tried many different smokes. I got a 1916 in a sampler pack I bought. I enjoyed it so much I figured it must be a fluke. Now after purchasing tons of them and sharing them with my friends, I know it is definately not a fluke. All my friends love them, they all comment on how smooth and tastefull they are.
Chris in San Antonio Texas October 29, 2008
"slow and satisfying"
A firm draw but a lot of character
Eric Weber in OR October 28, 2006
Excellent by every measure - perfect burn, easy draw and conistently smooth medium flavor from beginning to end.
John in Merrill, WI August 26, 2006
"strong, eventually harsh"
en cedro, nice faint pre-light aroma, beautiful multicolored deep brown wrapper, aged (wrapper and ring slide right off) medium to heavy draw, huge amounts of thick, strong smoke. Thick, densely packed, solid cigar. The smoke gets steadily harsher, with the nicotine covering up the flavor. Perhaps after the taste buds are deadened by hundreds of cigars, this is a crescendo which is enjoyable. For me, it is not.

LED Lightbulbs Cause Garage Door Malfunction
BENTON -- Homeowners and businesses in Southern Illinois are discovering a frustrating problem. The newest LED light bulbs can cause interference with garage doors.
Many people use a remote to get in and out of their garage. The Door Doctor in Benton has discovered a new problem plaguing that equipment. "In the last four to five years, they're starting to, out of nowhere lose their range," said owner John Reece. When Reece tried to figure out why the complaints were happening so often, he found that certain LED light bulbs interfere with the radio frequency between the remote and the garage. The lightbulb can be on anywhere around the house and cause the garage door not to work. "You have a bulb that would be malfunctioning, emitting some type of RF (radio frequency) signal out of the bulb. The bulb may still appear to work properly and is doing what it's supposed to do but it's not supposed to emit a signal to interfere with other things in your house," explained Reece. Reece said, as LED lights become cheaper and more popular, more and more people may run into this problem. "LiftMaster has come up with a dual board that does dual frequency now," he said, "In fact, that's all we use now. We started about 4 months ago." Reece said if you notice your problem is intermittent, first check your remote's battery. Next, check your bulbs, you may just need to buy a new one. "If you have done that and it hasn't taken care of it at that point, you probably need to contact a installing dealer," said Reece. Two other options are available: purchase a device that reduces radio frequency interference; or replace the control board in the garage door opener. |

2013 Mookover Winner!
We're so happy to announce Tesha K. and her sister Laron as the Mookover winners! With over 800 nominations, it was incredibly hard to choose just one. Laron submitted the winning nomination, which describes her sister Tesha's generosity and dedication to helping others. Tesha is a Tillamook-loving single mom who, in addition to raising two biological daughters and two adopted special needs children, also provides respite foster care for kids in Spokane. She also sponsors orphanages and families from around the world, because, as Laron says, "She felt she had more to give." Inspired by her sister's kindness, Laron is donating her prize pack to families in her area. Congratulations to Tesha and Laron!

CVP streaming from analog device
Here we provide to you a solution for encoding analog input from a sound card to G.711 u-law format that can be delivered to the Helix server for further broadcast to a CVP solution. This encoder utility is not a CVP supported utility.
Providing G.711 u-law format audio streaming from Helix that had originated with input from an analog device:
The below attached AVTransmit3.java file is the code in which made this possible. The attached Stream.jar is the complied executable of this java code.
Along with this code, Java executables and JMF (Java Media Framework) is required to be installed on the executing machine.
Please download the JMF here:
This java code will take analog input from the sound card of a server, convert it to G.711 u-law and then broadcast it to an open port on
the Helix server. Helix can then forward that encoded RTP on to its clients.
The block diagram of our test setup is as follows:
CD Player -> analog audio cable into Sound card -> Stream.jar Encoder -> Helix Server -> RTP broadcast stream to Client
Due to the fact that the MCS7845 we have a Helix server running on does not have a sound card, we ran the
encoder on a sperate machine. This encoded stream was then forwarded for Helix for broadcast.
In our example, the encoder ran on the device 184.108.40.206 and Helix ran on 10.86.129.250.
If modifications to the java code are required, please refer to the attached JMF user guide.
Enabling Helix to allow the encoder to connect to it:
Placing an SDP file in the C:\Program Files\Real\Helix Server\Content\rtpencodersdp
of Helix will open a port on Helix to allow an encoder to attach to it.
This directory is the install directory of Helix, plus Content, plus the location of the Base Mount Point as
defined in the QT & RTP Encoding page of the Helix Administration GUI.
The default value is "\rtpencodersdp\"
The contents of the SDP file will be setup like so:
o=- <unique value> <unique session ID> IN IP4 <IP-address-of-encoder>
t=0 0
m=audio <Helix-listening-port> RTP/AVP 0
c=IN IP4 <IP-address-of-Helix>
In our example, these values are:
o=- 37 614155991 IN IP4 184.108.40.206
t=0 0
m=audio 17008 RTP/AVP 0
c=IN IP4 10.86.129.250
When creating multiple streams, you must create multiple SDP files each with its own unique session IDs and listening
port values.
For further information about the contents of SDP files, please see the RFC2327.
Running encoder executable:
Attach a device to the analog input of the sound card on a server. At the command line
of this server in the directory where the Stream.jar is placed, run this command:
java -jar .\Stream.jar <input-device> <ip-of-Helix> <port-of-Helix>
In our example, the parameters are
java -jar .\Stream.jar javasound://44100 10.86.129.250 17008
This will run continuously until the program is stopped with a control-C.
ICM script changes:
The address in which clients will connect to hear the broadcast stream will be
Note that the actual SDP file is not served to client, but rather used by Helix to know to forward the stream provided by the encoder.
In our example, the parameters are
The path name "rtpencoder" is the value of the Mount Point as defined on the QT & RTP Encoding page of the Helix Adminstration GUI.
The default value is "\rtpencoder\".
The values of parameters within the ICM script that refer to the name of the file being accessed must be changed to now point at the SDP filename on Helix.

But as you seem to knowingly disagree, I would very much like to hear your explanation on why you think that the Perl 6 people would work on Perl 5 if Perl 6 were abandoned even though they all very clearly stated that they wouldn't. You're not even making an assumption here, you're flatly denying their statements.
Posted Feb 15, 2013 1:54 UTC (Fri) by HelloWorld (subscriber, #56129) [Link]
Granted, this doesn't contradict what you have been saying, but still I think it's a point that should be made.
Posted Feb 16, 2013 0:52 UTC (Sat) by raiph (guest, #89283) [Link]
> I disagree with niner's original point, that's probably why [niner using an idiom I don't like] annoyed me more than it otherwise would have.
It's not absolutely clear if you were confessing to emotional dysfunction or were justifying your behavior. You appear to be doing the latter without realizing it's the former. If that's wrong, please accept my apologies.
> I'm writing comments to express my opinions. The fact that some people seem not to like them doesn't bother me very much.
Again, is that confessing to emotional dysfunction or justifying your behavior?
> When I see someone doing things that I consider harmful, and my comments stop them (which, btw, I consider unlikely), I won't feel bad for that.
Do you consider all your opinions to be timeless classics or do you sometimes change your mind in light of evidence? If it's the latter, how do you square that with what you've just said? Do you think you just apologize when you find out you're wrong?
> The probability of a developer doing useful work while working on a useless project is ...
... roughly the same as the chance you will understand how ignorant it is, in a dialog like this, to use an opinion that others don't agree with as a premise from which to logically draw further conclusions.
Granted, what I've said so far doesn't contradict what you have been saying, but still I think it's a point that should be made.
I think many of your sentences on this page reflect ignorance bordering on stupidity. And they're annoying. So presumably the tone of this response is justified. Right?
I'm sorely tempted to say I won't be much bothered if you haven't enjoyed this comment. Instead I'll say I hope you get something useful out of it. :)

United States on the Verge of an Explosion of Greatness!
David Tepper, founder of Appaloosa Management, told Bloomberg Television's Stephanie Ruhle on "Market Makers" today that he's "going to come out of the closet right now…we are bullish… This country is on the version of just an explosion of greatness. Do you like that? Explosion of greatness."
On how he founded Appaloosa, Tepper said, "after you work on Wall Street it's a choice, would you rather work at McDonald's or on the sell side? I would choose McDonald's. Over the sell side."

The Plannertarium 2013: Mapping the future of TV for a connected generation
Thirty-eight rising media stars were selected to attend Channel 4's annual Plannertarium, in association with Campaign: a day and night of learning, workshops and some serious fun.
a day of learning and inspiration
With the main presentations over, and before the evening's wine-tasting contest and gala dinner began, delegates were split into teams to create a social TV plan around different Channel 4 shows. The winning team gained top marks for their schoolground-based app for Educating Yorkshire.
Relaxed networking was the order of the day. Speakers including Twitter's Snoddy, Channel 4's Amodio and Unilever's Titman were among those enjoying the late September sunshine (picture 5, carousel above).
If you want to see the future of TV planning, you could start by scanning these pages. Here you'll see the names (all) and faces (some) of the next generation of media A listers, as identified by the leaders of today.
These rising media stars were treated to a busy day of presentations, discussion and workshops, and an overnight stay, at The Vineyard spa hotel in Newbury, where they immersed themselves in insight and analysis of the future of TV in a connected world.
Channel 4's sales director, Jonathan Allan, introduced the theme, declaring this "a golden age for TV" and predicting a future where data, dual screening and short-form content, especially for mobile, are crucial.
Thinkbox's research and planning director, Neil Mortensen, illuminated how technology and legislation are driving innovation. The "next big things" in TV included: 4K Ultra HD; malleable and portable OLED display; transparent screens; dual viewing on one screen (the "marriage saver"); lazy glasses with TV lenses, and the TV hat.
The social media explosion and the meteor shower of connection points sparked between an audience, TV content and advertisers was tackled by a panel (pictured, top), chaired by C4's digital and creative lead, David Amodio, that featured Paul Davies, the head of marketing at Microsoft, James Rutherford, the multiplatform commissioner for sport at C4, David Titman, a senior brand manager for Lynx at Unilever, and Keith Welling, the head of broadcast activation at UM London.
The future of commissioning content and planning ad campaigns will "blur on- and offline, fact and fiction", Davies said – and bring greater personalisation, Titman added. Platforms are still emerging, Rutherford noted, and Welling pointed to how social is pushing advertising.
For C4, the challenge is to develop immersive content, personalised viewer and advertising experiences, transactional TV and greater access to brands, Jonathan Lewis, the head of digital and partnership innovation, told delegates. Confirming the symbiosis between social media and TV, Twitter UK's head of strategy, Oli Snoddy, said TV ads will soon be seen as live experiences. And SecondSync's managing director, Andy Littledale, showed how real-time monitoring means brands will soon be able to synchronise social media with ads on TV.

Quotes from authors born on Jun 5th
To the timid soul, nothing is possible.
John Bach
Don't let it end like this. Tell them I said something.
Pancho Villa
No man ever looks at the world with pristine eyes. He sees it edited by a definite set of customs and institutions and ways of thinking.
Ruth Benedict
There isn't much to say. I haven't been at all deedy.
Ivy Compton-Burnett
Poor David Hume is dying fast, but with more real cheerfulness and good humor and with more real resignation to the necessary course of things, than any whining Christian ever dyed with pretended resignation to the will of God.
Adam Smith

The immigration office is about 400m north of Fountain Sq.
The immigration office is about 400m north of Fountain Sq.
Celebrated in Vientiane, Pakse and Savannakhet with parties, fireworks and visits to Vietnamese and Chinese temples. Chinese- and Vietnamese-run businesses usually close for three days.
Pakse International Airport is one of the three international airports in Laos.
For medical emergencies that can't be delayed before reaching Bangkok, you can call ambulances from nearby Nong Khai or Udon Thani in Thailand. Nong Khai Wattana General Hospital in Nong Khai is the closest.
Wat Phu Tok
Accessed via a network of rickety staircases built in, on and around a giant sandstone outcrop, Wat Phu Tok is one of the region's true wonders. Six levels of steps lead past shrines and gù·đì that are scattered around the mountain, in caves and on cliffs.
In town, the family-run Saynamxan Restaurant , at the northwest end of the bridge crossing the Nam San, serves decent fish dishes. Best to avoid the roast turtle.
Ban Ahong
Wat Ahong Silawat on the west side of the village and is built amidst ruddy boulders at a river bend known as Sàdeu Námkong (the Mekong River's Navel) because of the large whirlpool that spins here from June to September. A 7m-tall copy of Phitsanulok's Chinnarat Buddha gazes over the Mekong to the simple little bòht.
Phu Khao Khuay Npa
Covering more than 2000 sq km of mountains and rivers to the east of Vientiane, the underrated Phu Khao Khuay NPA is the most easily accessed protected area in Laos. Treks ranging in duration from a couple of hours to three days have been developed in close consultation with two villages on the edge of the NPA, Ban Na and Ban Hat Khai.
Sakon Nakhon Province
Luang Pu (Ajahn) Fan Ajaro, a famous student of Ajahn Man, lived at Wat Pa Udom Somphon in his home district of Phanna Nikhom from 1964 until his death in 1977. His museum , inside a chedi with a triple-layer lotus design, commemorates his life with the usual display of relics, photos and worldly possessions. This is a strict forest meditation monastery.
Lak Sao
The Lao and Vietnamese dishes here aren't bad and it's encouraging that the local endangered species are found on preservation posters rather than on the menu – apart from the stuffed civet staring out from the counter.
Ban Chiang
The town visitor centre near the Ban Chiang National Museum hires out bikes for 20B per day and can arrange homestay accommodation.
Ban Chiang
About 300m southwest of the burial site (follow the signs for 'Phuan House which the King and Queen visited in 1972') , this traditional Isan house is also promoted as an attraction, but the still-lived-in houses throughout the village are more interesting.
Ban Chiang
For something completely different, visit this wát 500m north of the burial site, across the little bridge. The awesome childlike murals in the two-story building at the back are both enlightening and entertaining.
Ban Chiang
This excellent museum exhibits a wealth of pottery from all Ban Chiang periods, plus myriad metal objects, including spearheads, sickles, fish hooks, ladles and neck rings. The displays (with English labels) offer excellent insight into the region's distant past and how its mysteries were unravelled.
Sakon Nakhon
If you want to sit down and stay out late, hit Talat Charoensri Suan Rak in the thick of the city's nightlife district.
Sakon Nakhon
Sakon Nakhon
Rimming the eastern and northern edges of town is 123-sq-km Nong Han, Isan's largest natural lake, which is well known among Thais due to the legend surrounding it. Fishermen, who tie up their boats just east of Srinakarin Park, will take you out sightseeing, including a stop to visit the abandoned temple on Ko Don Sawan (Paradise Island), the lake's largest island.
Sakon Nakhon
Across the park from the city monument, the replica Sapan Kom lies along part of a Khmer road leading to Wat Phra That Narai Cheng Weng.
Sakon Nakhon
The city monument at the northwestern corner of town loosely resembles Vientiane's Patuxai. The archlike structure consists of four thick cement pillars standing over a bowl filled with naga .
Sakon Nakhon
This formerly formal place serves classic Thai and Chinese fast food like stir-fries and dim sum.

The city of Wausau hosted the second annual WinterFest Saturday. Thousands of locals flooded the 400 Block and neighboring businesses to enjoy more than a dozen free activities, including an Olympic size snow sculpture complete with a slide.
But if sledding is not your speed, there was still plenty of fun to be had WinterFest. There was ice skating at the rink on the 400 Block complete with free skate rentals, courtesy of Shepherd and Shaller. For those who needed to warm up indoors, the Center for Visual Arts had a craft corner and just down the block there was a gingerbread house contest at the Great Hall. Kids could also decorate cupcakes at St. Paul's UCC Community Center and everyone was welcome to sample homemade Chili from local restaurants at the Chili Contest. Free hot chocolate and horse drawn wagon rides were also be available all day long.

masterpieces like the enigmatic Casa Batlló and the Casa Milá, better
known as la Pedrera. The residential area of the Eixample district is a
living museum of Modernist Architecture. This grid-patterned area was
created in the 19th century to accommodate the overflowing population
from the Gothic district. It coincided with prosperous times when many
families became wealthy in the textile industry, Barcelona's golden age
of architecture. Geniuses such as Antoni Gaudí, Puig i Cadafalch,
Domènech i Muntaner were employed by these wealthy families to build
town houses, each more daring and exuberant than the other.
Not far from the the apartments is the emblematic Basílica de la Sagrada
Familia – Gaudí's masterpiece – and just around the corner is the
Hospital of the Holy Cross and Sant Pau, a functioning hospital and
probably the most complex example of Modernist architecture – a UNESCO
World Heritage Site.
This fascinating district is perfect for those who want an authentic
experience, the neighbourhood offers a true feel of life in Barcelona
with major places of interest easily accessible, local shops, typical
coffee and tapas' bars and good value restaurants offering a more
refined setting in which to relax at night.
A short stroll through these beautiful avenues takes you to the city
centre and many of Barcelona's attractions. Las Ramblas and the beach
are just a short metro ride ride away.
