Nonprofit hospitals in Georgia narrowly dodged "devastating" state cuts last year, and are trying to deter legislators from even suggesting that tax-exempt hospitals should start paying sales tax in a tight budget year.

"Without the added services these hospitals provide, Georgia would have nearly no trauma care [or] intensive care for newborns," alliance President Monty Veazey said.
The report states that for every $1 of state tax exemptions, nonprofit community hospitals provide an average of $4.16 in uncompensated community benefits. Those include charity care, Medicaid losses and bad debt from patients who don't pay their bills.
Georgia nonprofit hospitals provided $1.2 billion in "community benefit" compared to an estimated $320 million in tax exemptions, Veazey said.
Last year the hospital industry worked out a compromise with legislators to avoid a loss of the sales tax exemption for Georgia nonprofit hospitals, which represent three-quarters of the 165 acute-care hospitals in the state, according to the Georgia Hospital Association.
Kevin Bloye of the association said the group worries tax exemptions could become a target for savings this year.
"When you think about hospitals, especially those in rural areas that are literally hanging by a thread, this is the kind of thing that could push them over the edge," he said.
The Georgia Alliance for Community Hospitals is directing the report's results to the Legislature's Special Council on Tax Reform and Fairness for Georgians, a new organization that will make recommendations to the General Assembly before the 2011 session begins next month.
Holly Lang, hospital accountability project director with nonprofit consumer protection group Georgia Watch, was not fully satisfied with the alliance's disclosures. She noted that the reports were funded by the hospital industry for lobbying purposes.
Lang said more openness and clarity in quantifying "community benefit" is key to ensuring nonprofit hospitals truly are earning their tax breaks.
She also noted that the report provided to the public does not provide a breakdown of estimated sales and property tax savings for individual hospitals.
"I'm glad they did this. It just still doesn't answer many questions," she said. "We definitely are not advocating for the revocation of tax exemptions for nonprofit hospitals. However, we do feel there is not enough information out there about the value of the tax exemptions, and we do not feel these reports address that."
A more detailed version that will be provided to legislators includes a breakdown by hospital, said John Parker, attorney for the Georgia Alliance of Community Hospitals.
But officials declined to provide the full report to the Chattanooga Times Free Press, arguing the report is not a public document.
Parker provided a partial version that highlighted Dalton-based Hamilton Medical Center's estimated tax exemption of $4.2 million in 2009, compared with its "uncompensated community benefit," estimated at $26.9 million.
Hutcheson Medical Center in Fort Oglethorpe was not included because it has not renewed its membership in the alliance, Parker said.
Veazey said community hospital leaders want to be sure legislators understand the figures when searching for ways to save money in the upcoming fiscal year, though he does not think hospitals will be targeted for reductions.
Hospitals found themselves eyed for cuts for the 2011 fiscal year. Gov. Sonny Perdue recommended reducing Medicaid payment rates by 10.25 percent, saving $144 million, and ending the sales tax exemption for certain nonprofit hospitals, saving $130 million, according to the governor's office.
The loss of the sales tax exemption would have been "devastating," Veazey said.
Instead, Georgia hospitals accepted a 1.45 percent assessment on net patient revenues -- also called a bed tax -- for most hospitals over the next three years. The money will draw down federal matching Medicaid funds and provide extra reimbursement for hospitals that have a high share of those patients.
"We were basically at the end of the day told, 'Here are four cups, pick your poison,'" Veazey said.
"Rather than going to a tobacco tax, which would have generated much more in terms of dollars, they went with the bed tax."

Of the 165 acute-care hospitals in the Georgia Hospital Association, 125 are nonprofit.
All Georgia tax credits and exemptions are in the spotlight this year.
The Georgia Legislature created the Special Council on Tax Reform last year and charged it with examining the tax credits and exemptions, said Sarah Beth Gehl, with the Georgia Budget and Policy Institute.
The state has hundreds of tax exemptions on the books, some decades old, that haven't been evaluated recently for effectiveness, she said.
"Often we put these credits and exemptions in place and we never look at them again," she said. "We need to go back and evaluate and examine these and make sure we're getting the return on investment. ... That doesn't mean we're going to cut all of them, but it means we're going to really hold them accountable."
Perdue spokesman Bert Brantley said the attention to exemptions represents a new level of budgetary scrutiny. The governor, whose second term expires this month, is a member of the tax council.
"Because of the recession, I think there's a new focus on that," Brantley said.
"This is the first time I know of you've taken the whole of them [tax exemptions] and said, 'We've carved out these holes in our tax base. Does that make sense from a tax policy perspective? Would it be better to tax everybody the same at a lower rate?'"

Non-Profit Soapbox can be your cash register. Want to accept donations or member dues or payments for event registrations without having your donor or member or attendee ever leave your site? Yep, you can do that. Our tools are tight with PayPal, Authorize.net, and Braintree so it all happens behind the scenes and you keep your visitor your visitor – rather than shuffling them off elsewhere.
What's more, the payment form is protected through a secure socket layer (SSL) connection – all as part of the default setup for Soapbox so you don't need to worry about paying for and maintaining an SSL certificate of your very own. And that SSL connection causes the nifty little lock to appear in your visitor's browser bar so they know their credit card data is safe.
Now the "secure payment forms" part of this headline has always been in Soapbox. That's old news. What is new news is the "smarter" portion of the headline. With last night's update of Soapbox, if you have a password protected area of your site and a visitor logs in, they'll still be logged in when they go to a payment form. And, since they are logged in, Soapbox will automatically fill in their First Name, Last Name, and Email address into the Contact Information section of the form – plus give them access to event tickets restricted just to logged in users.
And, if you have the connection between Soapbox and Salesforce.com on your site, that donation or dues payment or registration payment is automatically stored in Salesforce, gently and neatly placed where it needs to go for real time reporting.
Example of smarty pants payment process
Let's look at an example, shall we?
1) Phil visits your Soapbox site
2) Phil logs in
3) Phil makes a donation. Soapbox knows Phil and fills in Phil's info.
4) Phil registers for an event. Soapbox knows Phil and fills in Phil's info.
5) Phil's filled in data is funneled to Salesforce where it is fancily associated with Phil's Contact record on the flipside
Funny how it all fits together so fantastically, eh?

READ THE REPORT: The Skills Gap: Reversing Washington's Lack of Skilled Workers Through Early Learning
On February 17, 2011, America's Edge released a new report in Washington State offering investments in high quality early care and education as a solution to reversing the workforce "skills gap" in Washington State.
Click here to read the full report: The Skills Gap: Reversing Washington's Lack of Skilled Workers Through Early LearningFOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Contact: Mike Kiernan, firstname.lastname@example.com Office: 202-464-7016 Cell: 202-412-7579
Washington Business Leaders' Report Shows Quality Early Learning as
Key to Reversing Growing Skills Gap in Workforce
Edwards, Kreinen and Beehler release report calling on state and federal lawmakers
to ensure a skilled workforce through high-quality early learning programs
OLYMPIA, WASHINGTON — (February 17, 2011) A skills gap that resulted in 10,000 jobs in Washington State going unfilled at the height of the recession poses a serious threat to the state's long-term economic prospects, three prominent business leaders said today. The business leaders released a report calling on lawmakers to prioritize investments in voluntary high-quality early learning programs as one key solution to the problem.
Mike Edwards, director of Thurston First Bank, Sue Krienen, refinery manager of Shell Oil Products USA in Anacortes, and Pat Beehler, senior professional land surveyor with David Evans and Associates, said that despite a terrible economy, thousands of jobs are not being filled in Washington State because of the skills gap, a problem that has been accelerated by the recession.
Also attending the press conference was a bi-partisan group of prominent state legislators including Sen. Rosemary McAuliffe, Sen. Steve Litzow, Rep. Roger Goodman and Rep. Maureen Walsh.
The three corporate representatives said Washington State must take action now to ensure the skill levels of the state's future workforce will meet the demands of Washington State businesses. They said high-quality early learning programs would give the state the best return for its educational investment by helping create a ready supply of skilled workers.
The business leaders – all members of the national business group America's Edge – called on Olympia lawmakers and Washington State's Congressional delegation to prioritize access to early learning programs. They urged lawmakers to provide incentives to school districts to continue to move from the traditional K-through-12 model to one which integrates early learning into the education model – an early education to graduation approach – while holding the line against program funding cuts.
According to the report released at the press conference, one in four companies trying to hire in Washington State in late 2009 and early 2010 had trouble finding qualified job applicants. As a result, more than 10,000 jobs went unfilled over the period, despite 300,000 state residents on the unemployment rolls, the report said.
Among the report's other major findings:
- Half of all new jobs created nationwide between 2008 and 2018 will require formal education beyond high school;
- By 2018, 67 percent of all jobs in Washington State will require postsecondary education;
- The Washington Workforce and Training Education Coordinating Board predicts that demand for mid-skill jobs will exceed supply by 2013 in the Evergreen State.
"In Washington State, we expect 20,000 nursing jobs to come open in the next five years, but 25 percent will likely go unfilled," said Edwards. "Gaps are even larger for aircraft mechanics with 79 percent potentially going unfilled. Our report also points to large skill gaps among accountants and bookkeepers with 66 percent unfilled, and installation, maintenance and repair workers with 60 percent unfilled."
"Our economy has lost billions because of an unskilled workforce," said Edwards, noting that each class of high school dropouts in the U.S. will earn $335 billion less than if they had received their high school diplomas, reducing spending power and contributions to the tax base. "If we want sustainable economic security, we must remedy this unsustainable situation."
According to research cited in the report, many business executives expect the skills gap to widen, with four in ten manufacturing companies nationwide expecting the shortage of skilled workers to worsen and three out of four executives saying that workers' "soft" skills – communication, collaboration and critical thinking – will grow in importance due to increased global competition and the quickening pace of change in the business environment.
The business leaders emphasized that investing in high-quality early learning programs was a necessary step in providing Washington State with a better-educated and better-skilled workforce.
The report cited research by University of Chicago economist and Nobel Prize winner James Heckman that found high-quality early learning helps children develop the soft skills that Heckman argues are prerequisite tools for future learning. Further, a study of Oklahoma's pre-kindergarten program reinforced Heckman's findings; it discovered that children who participated in the program demonstrated greater social and emotional maturity upon entering kindergarten than their peers who did not.
The report also cited long-term studies in various states. A study of children who attended the intensive Abecedarian infant and toddler development program in North Carolina were 74 percent more likely to hold a skilled job by age 21 than children left out of the program. A study of Chicago's Child-Parent Centers, which has served over 100,000 three- and four-year-olds since 1967, found that children attending the program were 40 percent less likely to need special education or to be held back a grade and 15 percent less likely to drop out of school than kids who did not attend.
"Research shows that early learning programs can help children develop the foundations for both the hard and increasingly important 'soft' communications skills," said Krienen. "These are the tools that give kids a jump-start on success in school and, ultimately, in the workforce."
Similarly, researchers have followed two groups of at-risk, low-income 3- and 4-year-olds from Michigan for four decades and found that children who attended the high-quality Perry Preschool were 44 percent more likely to earn high school diplomas than their peers who did not attend.
The business leaders called on Washington State legislators to hold the line against cuts in funding for the state's Early Childhood Education and Assistance Program, and asked the state's congressional delegation in Washington, D.C., to support the integration of early learning into the K-12 model when considering reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, known as No Child Left Behind in its last renewal.
"The jobs of the future, just like many of the best jobs today, will not be open to candidates who don't have the education and training needed to qualify," said Mr. Beehler. "Too few young people are getting the education and training they need to join an increasingly tech-driven workforce."
Edwards, Krienen and Beehler are members of America's Edge, a national business leaders organization composed of business owners and members of senior business management, with over 400 members nationwide.

Five Places to See Dead Celebrities - Page 2

3. Forest Lawn:
Los Angeles, California
Forest Lawn is actually a chain of nine cemeteries, but the two most famous franchises reside 10 minutes from one another, each one impossibly rich in celebrity gravesites. The Forest Lawn in Hollywood Hills has a kitschy American-history theme and is the resting place of such Hollywood luminaries as Lucille Ball, Buster Keaton, and Stan Laurel. Bette Davis lies inside a snow-white sarcophagus etched with her epitaph: "She Did It the Hard Way." The Forest Lawn in Glendale sprawls over 300 acres of fairy-tale green dotted with Renaissance-style statuary. Here are the mortal remains of Hollywood stars such as Clark Gable and Humphrey Bogart. Among its newest luminaries are Michael Jackson and Elizabeth Taylor, who was reputedly laid to rest nestled close to her last love letter from Richard Burton. The cemetery even has its own museum with exhibits of stained glass, paintings, bronzes, and other works of art; there's also a labyrinth you can walk while quietly meditating.
4. Rose Hill Cemetery:
Macon, Georgia
With elegant terraced lawns and lanky cypresses, Rose Hill Cemetery feels more like rolling Tuscan countryside than the red-clay terrain of southwest Georgia. Even though this cemetery is the resting place of many Southern statesmen and politicians, it's probably most famous as the gravesite of two Allman Brothers. Duane Allman and Berry Oakley died in motorcycle accidents a year apart at the same Macon intersection. It's said that after Allman died in 1971, a grieving Oakley had a death wish that he ultimately fulfilled. Band members spent many of their seminal years in a big old house in Macon and found inspiration in the cemetery's transcendent environs.
5. Mount Auburn Cemetery: near
Cambridge, Massachusetts
Mount Auburn Cemetery is the ideal destination for folks who prefer their celebrities to be everything the Kardashians are not. This Eden-like garden cemetery is the everlasting home to some of America's most profound thinkers, tinkerers, and ground-breakers. Among the celebrity gravesites are the final resting places of poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow; Pulitzer prize–winning author Bernard Malamud; Renaissance man Oliver Wendell Holmes; author and abolitionist Julia Ward Howe; inventor Buckminster Fuller; and Clement Morgan, founder of the NAACP. It's a lovely spot for contemplative strolling, sun-dappled in summer and ablaze in fiery hues in fall.

Perfectly Sharp
The See All Open Sight is the first of its kind in open-sight shooting technology. It's the only open sight that allows the shooter to see both the target and the sight element in perfect focus, simultaneously -- a clear upgrade from iron sights. It's the perfect sight for any application where magnification isn't needed: short-range rifles, shotguns, black-powder guns, and even pistols. And the incorporation of edge-glow material means low-light situations are no obstacle.
Order yours today:
Perfectly Simple
This sight requires no batteries. In addition, it's actually easier for many people to use than other sights. Simply look through the sight and your eye does the rest – there's no front sight to worry about and no fuzzy sight element to interpolate. Just place the crosshair reticle on the target and shoot. And unlike scopes, red dots, or other optical sights, the open design of the See All sight means target acquisition is reflex-quick. Your target never leaves your field of view.

A special spot for the wounded
Patrons pulling into the parking lot at Jimmy the Greek Family Restaurant are probably wondering about the new sign marking a special parking spot.
Erected two weeks ago, the sign at the business along Garrisonville Road in Stafford County reads: "Reserved. Combat Wounded." In the center of the placard is an image of the Purple Heart medal established by George Washington to honor those injured in battle.
In a patriotic twist on the ubiquitous handicapped parking signs, this one reserves space for wounded service members.
With Marine Corps Base Quantico nearby, it will probably be well-used. In fact, former Marine Sgt. Kenny Lyon, a regular at the restaurant, helped erect the sign.
Lyon lost his left leg above the knee and suffered other severe injuries in a mortar attack near Fallujah, Iraq, in 2006. Homes for Our Troops built him a house in southern Stafford last year.
Nancy Kearney, chaplain with the Blue Star Mothers of Fredericksburg, recently approached restaurant owners Demitrios "Jimmy the Greek" Zotos and his wife, Elani, about putting up the sign. It's the first one in a fledgling nationwide effort by the Omaha, Neb.-based Wounded Warriors Family Support organization to provide them, free, to businesses.
The Zotoses, Greek immigrants who have no military service members in their family, have been ardent supporters of the military.
Over the years, "They have gone above and beyond," said Kearney, whose oldest son, Matt, is serving with the Marines in Afghanistan, and youngest son, Kyle, is in boot camp at Parris Island, S.C.
"I've never seen a business that is more supportive of our military," she said.
After becoming an American citizen in 2006, Elani Zotos sewed an enormous flag to celebrate, and to honor her new country. She's made a series of successively larger ones since then as they wear out.
Inside, the restaurant displays military memorabilia, and sells T–shirts to benefit Homes For Our Troops, a Massachusetts-based veterans housing organization.
Kearney recently stopped by Jimmy the Greek's to ask for help for a fundraiser to send care packages to troops in Afghanistan. She mentioned the signs after learning about that program online.
She showed Jimmy Zotos a picture of one.
"Before I could finish asking, he said, 'How can I get that?'"
John D. Folsom, a retired Marine colonel and founder and president of Wounded Warrior Family Support, said the reserved parking signs, "honor those who gave the full measure of devotion to their country We want to give businesses across the nation the opportunity to honor that service and sacrifice on a daily basis with a parking space specially designated for [troops] awarded the Purple Heart."
He said the organization has other requests for the signs pending and that recipients must agree to create a dedicated parking spot, and that the sign cannot be used for any other purpose.
Nick Zotos, one of the Zotoses' sons who works at the restaurant, said, "We get a lot of military here; most are Marines, but there's a mix." Two other brothers, Alex and Demitrios, and Georgia, a sister-in-law, also work there.
He's not sure whether anyone has parked in the space yet, but, "It's an honor to have it here," he said.
The Zotoses operated the first Jimmy the Greek restaurant in Fredericksburg from 1986 to 1993, then the Paradise Diner on U.S. 17 in Stafford for 13 years. They reopened Jimmy the Greek Family Restaurant on Garrisonville Road in 2006.
There's currently no big American flag up outside, Nick Zotos said. "A lot of people have been asking about it."
Not to worry.
"My mother is making another one and it's going to be bigger."

Temperatures will be above normal to start the new month of November. Highs today should climb into the lower 80s. Normal highs during the early part of November should be near 77 degrees. Warm weather is expected to remain through the weekend with more normal temperatures returning early next week.
October finished off slightly cooler and drier here in Lafayette. The average high was 80.9 and the average low was 57.0. For the month we were just a little over a degree cooler than normal. Very dry conditions prevailed with just 0.34" of rain falling at Lafayette Regional Airport. 0.33" fell on the 18th and 0.01" on the 17th. Therefore 29 of 31 days were rain free.

Historic Braehead is on the Candlelight Tour this year.
Previous owner Graham Stevens framed this Braehead key collection.

It couldn't be more appropriate that Braehead, the 1859 brick mansion where Gen. Robert E. Lee had his breakfast on the day the Civil War came to Fredericksburg, is a stop on the city's Candlelight Tour this year.
Not only does the property have that memorable role in local history, but its thorough restoration, inside and out, was just completed a few weeks ago. Today it probably looks as good as it ever has since the general hitched his horse, Traveller, to the walnut tree that still stands nearby.
Participants in the tour, sponsored each year by Historic Fredericksburg Foundation Inc., will be welcomed to a place that in every key respect is the same as it was when it was built 153 years ago. This is readily documented primarily because it has been owned by but two families, the second taking over stewardship just a few years ago.
New owners Robb and Diana Almy bought the home while it was held on a contingency contract by the Central Virginia Battlefield Trust. The organization had entered the agreement with Graham Stephens, the earlier owner and a descendant of the home's builder, John Howison. It's said Howison built the house for $15,000--a very large sum at the time.
Tucked off Lee Drive in the National Battlefield Park, and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, it is also protected under a conservation easement. The restoration for residential use qualified the project for Virginia state tax credits and oversight by the state Department of Historic Resources.
The new owners contracted with Jay Holloway of Habalis Construction in Fredericksburg to renovate and restore the property, and the results are nothing short of remarkable.
Time and a lack of maintenance had taken their toll. But the house is now a comfortable home for a young family while it retains all that makes it a historic structure--which Robb Almy considers the perfect blend of old and new.
"It's not a museum but an old house that is actually lived in," he said. And that's because it has been a home, except for a period as a bed-and-breakfast, since the day it was built. Any interior changes that had been made were undone during the restoration.
A history of the house written by Mary "Aunt Mamie" Howison, who was born in 1859, recalls that her Uncle John Howison, Braehead's builder and first owner, loved to host his extended family at the house each Sunday, when the dining table would extend through both the living and dining rooms and lively discussions would ensue.
It was a time when a house was where life experiences took place--births, deaths, weddings.
The Howisons enjoyed a relatively high standard of living, thanks to the lucrative dairy plant that John Howison ran from the house. He took in milk from local farmers and distributed it to customers in Fredericksburg.
In just two short years, however, life for the Howisons would change dramatically as the family and community turned its attention to the Civil War. Selling a fine tract of Braehead timber to the Confederate government for the war effort was only the beginning. In 1861, Howison's wife died and three of his sons went to war.
Dec. 13, 1862, was the day Gen. Lee came to take breakfast at Braehead, steeling himself for the day of battle ahead. Lee had positioned his headquarters at a nearby spot now known as Lee's Hill. Viewing the brutality from that vantage point, he observed: "It is well that war is so terrible. We should grow too fond of it."
During the second Battle of Fredericksburg in 1864, the house was used as a hospital by the Union Army. The Yankee soldiers left the place standing, but they tossed furniture through the windows, carved their names in walls and trim, broke the china, and ate or otherwise killed the livestock.
Union cavalrymen's spur marks remain on the risers of the home's stairs. The floors were left so blood-soaked that it was easier for the Howisons to cover them with a dark stain than to clean them.
By war's end, Howison had lost his wife, two of his sons, all of his dairy equipment and was $60,000 in debt. There was also a cannonball hole at one end of the house.

Research Project Summary Information
The current grid system was built on the assumption that all electricity would be generated at very large central plants. This system is inefficient because it is difficult to adjust to changing demand patterns. Ideally, an intelligent grid provides integrated benefits for both the utility and the end-use consumer. Seamlessly integrating an array of locally installed power sources alongside traditional central-station power generation, it gives the system greater resilience, enhance security, and improve reliability.
Map Error
This study is in-depth evaluation of secondary network losses and methods for loss reduction. The first of its kind, it will render advancements to analytical tools that could be applied throughout New York to reduce distribution losses, both through better planning and through real time simulations. As part of smart grid progress, simulation and modeling tools must be updated to incorporate its concepts. This project considers the feasibility of using the simulation tool for application on the most complex distribution configuration in the country- Con Edison urban networks. If the tools can be shown to be effective for a complex urban network, the application for radial distribution systems is a logical next step.
• Significant energy savings are possible by reducing losses on the distribution system. The development of an accurate simulation tool will help identify areas on the grid with the highest losses.
• Reduced system losses directly translate to GHG emission savings.

The pilot departed and flew to his intended destination to conduct some touch-and-go landings. The weather was 'excellent VFR,' and the winds were from the northeast approximately 12 knots. The first touch-and-go to runway 33 was completed without incident. On the second touch-and-go, at 300 feet agl, the pilot inadvertently selected the mixture control to off. Realizing the error, the pilot elected to continue the approach without trying to restart the engine because of altitude remaining. The airplane developed a 'high' rate of descent, and with insufficient time and altitude to regain 'adequate' airspeed, the pilot unsuccessfully attempted to flare the airplane for touchdown. The airplane impacted the runway approximately 10 degrees nose down, and 50 knots. The pilot secured the airplane's systems. Then, both he and his passenger exited the airplane.

Journal of Internal Medicine: Review article by L. O. Kallings
Journal of Internal Medicine: Review article by L. O. Kallings
21 февраля 2008 года.
The March issue of the Journal of Internal Medicine published today features a review article by Professor Lars O. Kallings entitled "The first postmodern pandemic: 25 years of HIV/ AIDS".
In the 26-page article Professor Kallings gives a biomedical overview of AIDS looking into the characteristics of AIDS and the scientific search for preventative technologies. He traces the changing epidemiology of HIV from its earliest reports to today's incidence and distribution in different regions of the globe. The varied social and political aspects of AIDS and the global response to it are also examined.
The review explores disinformation and misconceptions around the issue of AIDS and discusses prospects of finding a cure and other future scenarios.
Professor Lars O. Kallings was appointed UN Special Envoy for AIDS in Eastern Europe and Central Asia by the UN Secretary-General in May 2003.
Engaged in the AIDS response for over 20 years, he has held positions including adviser to the World Health Organization, Chairman of the Global Commission on AIDS and Senior Adviser to the Global Programme on AIDS on Scientific and Policy Affairs. He is currently honorary Chairman of AIDS Accountability International. He is Founding President of the International AIDS Society (IAS) and was its Secretary-General 1994–2002.
Professor Kallings wrote this review as an independent scientist and its content does not necessarily represent the views of the UN or any organization to which the author is, or has been, affiliated.

Pop diva Mariah Carey has revealed she can no longer rely on working out in the gym to keep her fabulous figure since becoming a mother.
The 43-year-old welcomed twins Moroccan and Monroe last April – and has admitted keeping in shape wasn't as easy as before.
"Pregnancy was probably the best and the hardest thing I'll ever go through." she said.
"I know for a lot of women, it can be wonderful and relatively easy. But for me, it was like 'Okay, honey, do you have to do everything the hard way?'"
She added: "I used to be able to slim down just by exercising more, but that's changed. Since having the babies, I realise that 90 per cent of losing weight is my diet."

Blackmore's Night, featuring Fender signature artist Ritchie Blackmore, has digitally released "The Moon Is Shining (Somewhere Over the Sea)," the lead single to the band's upcoming album Dancer and the Moon.
"It's based on an old folk Czech melody that [singer] Candice [Night] and I thought was very melodic and haunting," Blackmore says of the beautiful song. "We adapted and arranged to suit more of a rock structure. We also played it as a ballad as it was originally intended. We asked several of our Czech friends what it was called but they couldn't tell us, so it remains a mystery."
Guitar World is offering an exclusive stream of the song here. It can also be download at iTunes or Amazon.
Dancer and the Moon drops on June 11 in North America and on June 14 in Europe. Blackmore Night's eighth studio album features several instrumental tracks, including "Galliard" and "Carry On…Jon," which Blackmore wrote as a tribute to the late Jon Lord of Deep Purple.
In addition to CD format, there will be a deluxe edition in digipak that includes a bonus DVD featuring a making of the album documentary and acoustic versions of "The Spinner's Tale," "The Moon Is Shining (Somewhere Over the Sea)," "The Ashgrove" and "Queen For A Day."
The album will also be made available in a super-deluxe edition strictly limited to 2,000 copies, packaged in a polyston frame with the cover artwork printed on canvas. The super-deluxe edition also includes a black tote bag with Blackmore's Night artwork, four Blackmore's Night pins, a certificate of authenticity and the CD/DVD edition.
Blackmore's Night will be touring this summer in support of the album release; tour dates available here.

They actually had a good band friday, but to please the young audience they started out with good Jazz and switched to Carole King etc. that is not why you go to Jules. Please focus on the good french food and the good Jazz, or you will be like all the others.
- Monday fun day!OpenTable Diner Since 2013VIPDined on 11/10/2014Went there with my wife for their unlimited mussels monday. PERFECT! Alex, the manager, has welcome us in a very professional manner, making sure our entire dinner was satisfying. A band was playing, the restaurant was busy, and the atmosphere was fantastic. We'll be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Solid Bistro with a Side of JazzLogoDined on 11/8/2014If I were to base my opinion on a single visit, it'd probably rate middle of the road. If you're there to have a nosh with a live jazz band, it works. If you're looking for a high-performing kitchen, or a floor staff that can set enough seats to the reservation, you might want to look elsewhere. (Like a lot of places, you're better off in the quieter periods and this was a Saturday night.) That said, they've been in business for c. 20 or so years, they should have this down by now. In past visits I've had some excellent soups, this time my pork schnitzel was underwhelming. Heard skate was excellent but navarin d'agneau a bit sweet on the sauce. But any place hosting live music gets at least a couple of bonus points in my book.I would recommend this to a friend.

- Jules is a "Jewel"robkapVIPDined on 8/23/2014Second time we were there, this tme brought another couple. Everything went well. We had asked for an outdoor patio table and the very friendly hostess had it ready for us. From the appetizers to the dessert, everything was excellent. And the Jazz just made it better.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- MagnifiqueMagnifiqueVIPDined on 8/15/2014Friday night, great food, wonderful live jazz music, superb staff !!!
- JulesStuCo11Dined on 8/9/2014Ok, nothing special. Escargot was over cooked and steak was too. Service was good. Piped in jazz early on a Saturday. Room has a decent vibe.
- Perfect Sunday Musical BrunchCmhgVIPDined on 7/27/2014What a fantastic concept this place has. The band on Sunday brunch was wonderful! The food is okay: poached egg dishes were very good but the french toast not so much. Unlimited $12 mimosa is a great option and the refill is legit. I will definitely come back for some great jazz and try perhaps dinner menu instead.Special Features:
- The following 131 reviews are from the Jules Bistro reviews archive.
- deafeningOpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 7/14/2014i get new york's noise levels. i get close tables- animated and "energetic" but this was totally insane. i literally could not hear my date. love le singe vert, saw this was in the restaurant group so gave it a try. we essentially shoveled our dinner down to get out of there.

- delicious and delightfulsenoritaVIPDined on 6/27/2014the special salade frisee with chicken livers and bacon and ... was delicious - the only problem was that much as i loved the jazz which is why i went, it was just too loud for conversationSpecial Features:
- Great atmospherenycdiningamateurDined on 6/20/2014My third time at Jules Bistro. Great atmosphere - feels like you're in Paris in the 1920s or 30s - the live jazz in the evening adds to the mood. Nice mix of group seating and cozy places for a date. Food is great and the prices are not overwhelming. Just remember to bring cash, since they don't take Visa or Mastercard.Special Features:
- Great as alwaysTizLozVIPDined on 6/1/2014A guarantee of quality in terms of food, service and live jazz!Go go go!It's always a delicious experience.That time I had the soup d'ognon and the grilled fish...simply amazing!Special Features:

- East Village Jazz and French FairOldSaltDined on 5/17/2014Nice little bistro, but the real draw the night we were there was some world-class jazz in a small space with no cover charge.Special Features:
- Paris in NYCnygal303Dined on 5/16/2014Took advantage of the Loire Valley Week Menu: oysters with wine pairing and cod, also with wine pairing - both were delicious. Service was friendly & good - never felt rushed to finish courses, ambience was fun, and the jazz music was really wonderful. The restaurant only takes Amex and cash, which the maitre'd told me when I confirmed over the phone and again, when I gave my name at the reservation desk. It's always nice to go to a french restaurant where the servers are french (the accent made us feel like we were in Paris). Will definitely go back soon.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Go for the Jazz not the foodVal46Dined on 5/9/2014Small basement level spot with regular live jazz. Our group of 4 was seated right in front of musicians, which seemed nice at first, but then ended up being more disruptive to the conversation. Service was pretty good. The ambiance was appropriate, the menu selection has some interesting options. The sore point: expensive food that was absolutely not worth the price. It was not bad, but fairly underwhelming.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great music and ambianceATVTDined on 4/20/2014Our first time at Jules was a very mediocre experience. Escargots appetizer plate was good, but the french onion soup and the hanger steak were rather disappointing. We loved the live music and the ambiance and may possibly drop in again just for a drink. I rate the service "poor" because of the waitress. The rest of the staff was pretty pleasant and helpful. The waitress was short in her communication, almost poked my eye while cleaning a few plates from the table and really did not know how to communicate the absence of items (wine to steak frites) in a nice way to direct us to another choice. Another female employee (maybe the manager) even asked her if everything was OK while she was being unpleasant with us.
- We love this placeSLeblancDined on 4/18/2014Have been to Jules twice. Incredible food, superb beef tartare, wonderful music, atmosphere and service. Can't wait to be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Frozen croque madame? Really?StupidnicknamerequirementDined on 3/23/2014Why can't they make croque madame sans jambon? Because it's frozen. The ham literally cannot be physically dissociated from the cheese. The jazz is good, and I'd go there for drinks and music. But I went as a restaurant. Which it wasn't, really. My crepe, which, being the daily special, did allow of the 86ing of the jambon, was thoroughly lackluster. It did not neglect to be lackluster in any regard: not in its conception or execution, its texture or its taste. Which is, I suppose, an accomplishment of sorts. A pity, because the band was good.
- One of my favoritesjustmeDined on 3/19/2014Jules is one of my favorite spots, both to reserve a table for dinner with a friend, or to stop by the bar any night of the week. It has a very authentic ambience of a French bistro, with live music 7 days a week, no cover, good beers and wines, good food, reasonable prices.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- old school but young at heartOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 3/16/2014Love this place. Classic French meal with a real french fabulous hostess. wine was great for the price and the ambiance transported us, for a little while anyway, to France.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- GREAT BUT....Tony8Dined on 3/8/2014JUST A PET PEEVE... I HATE WHEN THEY PUT THE TIP ON THE BILL AUTOMATICALLY JUST BECAUSE IT'S MORE THAN 4 PEOPLE... I NEVER UNDERSTOOD THAT... I'M A GREAT TIPPER AND THEY WAITER/WAITRESS LOSES OUT ON A BETTER TIP BECAUSE I'M TOO ANNOYED TO ADD MORE.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Amazing Find!MosesVIPDined on 2/16/2014We were looking for a nice place for dinner and some live music and found Jules Bistro on Open Table and thought we would give it a try. Feuled only by other patrons reviews we tried it and absolutely LOVED the restaurant. The risoto was to die for. The sauteed spinach was incredible. And the music was amazing. On top of all that we had a wonderful server who really made the experience even better. There was a great live jazz band playing and we had a wonderful time. I would highly recommend this restaurant!!Special Features:
- French Jazzy FunAlNycDined on 2/8/2014I had my birthday dinner here with my best friend. The host saved a seat for us right in front of the jazz band...it was like having front row seats with a completely unobstructed view. The bartender was lovely and very friendly. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. The music was fantastic. I will definitely be coming back!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Sunday BrunchfelinaDined on 1/26/2014Nice vibe, jazz and food, thanks, what else can we say?Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- great local spothungrydinerVIPDined on 1/24/2014Went here on a date after seeing a show downtown. We were early for our reservation but it wasn't problem, we were still seated right away. Initially they sat us by the window- I think so we could have privacy but it was pretty cold and the window's are not insulated so we requested to move to a different table- they accommodated us no problem. Though we sat down after 10 the restaurant was still relatively packed. The live music was really enjoyable and not disruptive at all. At one point our waitress- who's french, joined the band for a song- it was a fun treat and made for an authentic experience. The food was good- the duck breast was well cooked and my date liked his chicken. Would def go back.Special Features:
- Will do again!!!OpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 1/23/2014The owner us very very nice...I did enjoyed the duck..it was perfect....in one word it was 'EXCELLENT'Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Jules Bistro great Village HideoutOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 1/12/2014This is a simple relaxing straightforward excellent restaurant. The food is very good and the prices are reasonable. The hos and the services were excellent. The lady at the bar with the multiple exposed tattoos was interesting to stare at. The jazz session was very good and not too loud. Would go back again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Jazz Brunch Great, Dinner OKOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 1/10/2014Brunch is great, but dinner just okay. Steak disappointed, duck breast was good. But when you include the jazz music, it's worth it at any meal; outstanding for brunch.Special Features:
- Happy customerLarsDined on 1/4/2014We went here with some friends and we had a great night! The food was good and the mood in the restaurant is very cozy. Very often jazz bands are playing and that makes it even better.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Customer attentativeJohnDined on 12/31/2013We spend New Year's eve and the manager and staff addressed all our needs in a friendly and positive, even funny manner. Music great. Atmosphere superb. We also recommend the monthly candle light dinnersSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- My favorite French spot!DianaDined on 12/30/2013Always a pleasure coming here, but I only bring people I really like because I don't want to ruin this little gem! I attended a wine tasting here years ago, or I would never have found this place. Cramped, worn red leather and wood decor, but it's so beautiful and the setting is intimate. Live jazz periodically plays, which is always a treat (yes it gets loud, get over it and enjoy it!). The lovely French lady server I usually have even sings sometimes, which is so cool. Cons: I always have to ask them to warm/toast my baguette to go with my escargots (SO GOOD), and they only take cash and Amex. Pros: Everything else! Totally worth the trip downtown. Keep it up Jules, don't ever change, I love you just the way you are!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- a low-key excellencebeenthereatethatVIPDined on 12/26/2013terrific place, been here often for pre-theater (in the east village) or just to linger. the jazz is often quite good. the service is very attentive, and the food is reliably tasty and well prepared at a nonextortional rate.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

This Day Benedict Prosser was brought

Prosser, "That he came to his Shop, and said, "That he
was undone; and that he did intend to kill the Lord Shaftesbury, for he with other of the Lords did intend to undoe
the Lord Arundell, who was his very good Customer." And
the said Prosser also told him, at Bradley's, in Holborn, "That he was to be
an Ensiga under the Lord Arundell."
Miles Prance further said, "That he
and Mr. Messenger, and Prosser, and
Mattison, were at Bradley's, in
Holborn, about Five Weeks before Staley was taken; and Messenger much
complaining of the Severity of the Laws that were against the Catholics, and
much fearing they would be put in Execution against them by some that were not
Lovers of the Catholics, and particularly the Lord Shaftesbury, who did most busy himself about them; therefore he
said, "That there must be speedy Course taken to prevent it;" and that, after
their Meeting at the Cross Keyes, by Staley's, he met with Prosser at
Bradley's, where he told him, That Messenger was the Person that promoted the Killing of the Lord

Care that no Person be admitted to the said Benedict
Prosser except his Wife, till further Order; and this shall be a
sufficient Warrant on that Behalf.

The tattooed duo, spotted shopping over the weekend in Calabasas, Calif., appeared to be struggling to share a kiss, thanks to the 23-in. height difference. O'Neal awkwardly bent down while Alexander struck a tippy-toed pose.

BMW has been busy trademarking. Below is a list of some recent BMW trademark filings for future potential models. Remember, just because a manufacturer registers a trademark does not mean that the model will necessarily come to fruition. But, it makes for some fun speculation and certainly paints a rough map of what potential future models we may see out of Munich.
Recent Trademark List:
2 Series Active Tourer
We previously reported on a possible four-door 2 series sedan / gran coupe. Autocar has now joined the rumormill on such a potential 4 door model.
The report claims that BMW has plans for or is discussing a RWD sedan based off the current 1 Series platform that will target the US and China markets in particular. Autocar calls it a 1 Series, but in all likelihood it would be called a 2 Series. If you remember, only the hatchbacks and upcoming FWD models are likely to … CONTINUED
'Insider' Scott26 provides some rumors and ruminations on the plans and design for the upcoming BMW 2 Series coupe, convertible, and even a potential sedan.
Details are provided as to how the design of the 2 series will be similar and different than the F20 1 series hatchback on which it will be based. But the biggest info here is that BMW is currently considering a four-door 2 Series sedan-coupe to battle the upcoming Audi A3 sedan and Mercedes CLA. The BMW 2 Series sedan … CONTINUED
A new BMW 2 series coupe render has been posted, courtesy of Autoexpress. Although this render may give us an idea as to the general shape, size, and proportions, the BMW 2-series coupe is expected to have a significantly different look (particularly the front end) than the F20 1-series hatchback upon which this render is clearly based.
There will be no next generation 1-series coupe and convertible, as they will take on the 2-series badge instead. The 2 series coupe is expected as … CONTINUED
One of the most anticipated BMW models in the next few years will include the BMW 2-series coupe/convertible (which will replace the 1-series coupe/convertible). With the 1M coupe receiving overwhelming praise, its successor, the BMW M2 (based off 2 series coupe) will surely receive even more attention.
Here's the latest of what we've recently learned from a trusty source regarding the upcoming M2 and 2-series:
- The M2 has not yet officially been approved for production (and may not be officially approved until the 2-series commences production)
- Intent … CONTINUED
Autoexpress comes in with some exciting confirmation from BMW M GmbH's new managing director Dr. Friedrich Nitschke – the M2 is in the works. But that's not all… a 'revolutionary' new M3 is in development and discussions are underway about a possible Lamborghini Aventador rival supercar!
The M2 will be based off BMW's F22 platform (Autoexpress uses 'F21′) and will be based on the upcoming 2-series / 2 series coupe (BMW has plans to rebadge its small coupe model as 2-series beginning the next generation) due in … CONTINUED
We'd like to make clear that the previous announcement of the 1M coupe's end of production in December 2011 is specific for the US market. The production schedule we refer to for such info is US-market specific. Whether the 1M remains in production beyond that for the other markets remains to be seen.
According to the official BMW model production schedule (attached below), the 1M coupe will end production in December 2011, making a total production run of 10 months. The chart also indicates that there will not be a second (2012) model year. If recent speculations comes to fruition, the successor to the 1M coupe will be the BMW M2 Coupe, as BMW will switch the next generation small BMW coupe to the 2-series badge.
From time to time, BMW trademark filings provide clues on future BMW models. Our latest finding could be related to the recent speculation coming from both Autobild and SCOTT26. BMW is said to be considering launching a 2-series line comprising of the 2-series coupe (F22), the 2-series convertible (F23) and M-variants of these cars. These are essentially the next generation 1-series coupe and convertible, but renamed as the 2-series.
As seen in the screenshots from the German patent office below, BMW has filed "M2″ and "BMW M2″ … CONTINUED
Here's a render of the 2-series coupe, which is what the next generation 1-series coupe and convertible will purportedly be badged as, while the hatchback 1-series and all new FWD 1-series models will retain the 1-series designation. More info via link inside. BMW 2 series coupe.
Insider SCOTT26 previews the next generation of 1-series, 2-series, M2, and the long rumored Z2 compact roadster. The 1-series coupe and convertible will receive new 2-series badging, while the hatchback and GT models and retain their 1-series designations. An M2 (successor to current 1M coupe) and a Z2 compact roadster is also in the pipeline. Full rundown inside. BMW 2 series coupe
Talk of next 1-series M already?! Now that the 1M has been revealed, Scott26 has already turned to talk of the future of the 1M (or M2 as it may be called), as well as the M-Division's future, which may bring more track/performance focused 1M and M3 special models, as well as potential Z4M and X3M models!
