"The truth of the matter is that there's nothing you can't accomplish if: (1) You clearly decide what it is that you're absolutely committed to achieving, (2) You're willing to take massive action, (3) You notice what's working or not, and (4) You continue to change your approach until you achieve what you want, using whatever life gives you along the way." – Tony Robbins
Successful people think different than the rest of other people. That's why one of the things I like to do is to learn from them and pick up their minds; what are they thinking and their approaches to life and what are their approach to success.
Everybody has their own definition and description concerning success. This is a broad subject to analyze, but those who have learned to keep it simple they have realized success is a matter of getting the results you want. It can be on daily, monthly, yearly basis, or mission and goal accomplishment basis, a progress thing, and so on. What can look to you as a success, but to somebody else can look like a totally different thing. This is why it's good to go on your own perspective of what success looks to you. But it is also good to get out of your box and learn from the renowned successful people and pick up their brains, maybe you can pick up something from them to help you with your own success. And there are so many teachings out there about what success is, and how you can obtain it, so it is a matter of picking what it resonates with you.
Regardless of what success is to you, but we all know it's not a straight line. If success was a straight line, everybody would have claimed they are successful. There would be no struggles, delays, disappointments, exhaustions, confusions, and et cetera. We have lots of reasons why success is not a straight line. Many of them are part of the growth process.
There are so many success formulas and techniques out there. Remember now, I didn't say secrets or tricks. According to Colin Powell, "There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure." So let's go over "The Ultimate Success Formula" by Tony Robbins. This 'Ultimate Success Formula' has four steps or processes.
- Decide what you want
I don't know how many successful people I have heard already said about how crucial this is, "Decide what you want." Know what you want and be clear and precise if that's what you want and then make a decision to get it, go after it, and achieve it.
Making a decision is a first step to taking action, because our decisions become our actions. Indecisiveness is one of the root causes of inactivity. If you keep changing your mind all the time, you may not get anything done. You have got to make your mind and decide what you want. Make wise decisions because our decisions affect our results.
Whatever it is you want to achieve and succeed, make a decision it's what you want. Be very clear and precisely about it just like for instance when you order a sandwich from Subway; "I want Italian B.M.T. one foot long parmesan bread with cheese toasted. No onions, put tomatoes, cucumber, pickles, lettuce, black olives, jalapeno peppers, mayonnaise, chipotle sauce, and two white chocolate cookies."
- Take action
Just like Tony Robbins' saying, "It's not knowing what to do; it's doing what you know." If there was going to be secrets to success I would say this is one of them. This is a main ingredient. Successful people take action towards their plans, goals, dreams, and decisions. Wanting to do something is not enough; you have got to take action.
Create for yourself an action written plan for success that you can tackle one thing or one step at a time. When you take action steps with a plan, that plan becomes like a direction to you, and it keeps you grounded.
Your action plan should have step by step process where everything is organized, this means before you go to the second step, you need to finish the first step first. You know like in College, before they let you take sophomore year courses, they will tell you to finish freshman courses first.
So after you decide what you want, create yourself a step by step plan for you to commit to it in order to achieve your goals, and work towards your success. As Tony Robbins said, "The path to success is to take massive, determined action."
- Notice what is working or not
You have created your action plans, you followed up on them, and committed yourself to achieve them by taking massive determine actions. But then, along the way as you continue to work towards your success you found out some of your approaches worked and some they are just not working for you.
So what is important here is to take note of what is working and what is not. You don't want to waste your time and energy into something that has proved you time and time that it not working for you. There are going to be periods where you will notice what is working and what is not.
Sometimes what didn't work for others do not mean won't work for you, but again you won't know until you try for yourself. Some people can concentrate on reading even when the music is playing on the background. Others they need quite in order to concentrate and focusing on reading.
- Change your approach until you achieve what you want
You had your plan, and it didn't work the way you planned to work, so does it mean you should give up? They say "If at first you don't succeed, try, try, and try again." Failure is part of success and the process. So success is learning from failure to failure. In other words, as long you don't quit, you are succeeding.
Changes should always be welcomed as long as they are good changes. After you have tried your first approach and it worked then it means continue doing it, but if it didn't work, be willing to do something about it so that you can get better results.
Success is not a straight line. The reality is some plans will not work like we expected them too due to various reasons some beyond our control. Sometimes it's not like our plans are not working, maybe we just need to be more committed to our plans.
When things are not going as planned that can be our opportunity to review our plans again so that we can remove what is not working and replace it with what is working. We need to be flexible to look for new approaches that can give us new different results using whatever life gives us along the way.
And that's about it; four steps of The Ultimate Success Formula and approach you can apply as you work toward your success.

Before the Minister:
A Kiss for the Newlyweds:
The Sun Sets on Cue:
The Moon Approves:
Mom and Radiant Daughter:
First Dance as a Married Couple:
Embroidery on the Wedding Dress: I was asked to embroider highlights on the wedding dress, which made me rather nervous. I got the dress only 2 weeks ahead of the time she needed it back. Once in hand I had to figure out what to do and where. After a few days I started with the design on the lower right of the skirt (so any rethinks wouldn't be as obvious) and began to satin stitch, but quickly decided to limit that because of the strong color and the detail. I used outline/stem stitch around the rest of the design. For the design on the shoulder, I decided not to compete with her lovely face and only to outline most of it. Because the dress was lined I had to carefully avoid catching lining by passing needle between the layers as I stitched. Took a LOT longer than it looks! The design on groom's pocket is the lower portion of gerbera daisy petals, which I had DD preapprove. I'd started on a separate piece of linen I intended to tack over the top of the pocket with designs similar to those on her dress ... but I got about 1/2 done and just did NOT like it. Plan B - what DD had suggested as an alternative - something like petals in relief. Because by then I had to have the shirt back to her the next day. I actually brought it home again to start over, and stitched it over-night - again stitching only on the top layer of the folded pocket hem. I intended to add an additional row of satin stitching to that area to the left to balance the design and weight of color, but she called to say a friend was nearby and going to pick up the shirt several hours before I was told she needed it back. Yikes. Which mean a RUSH job on the bit I still had left when I'd crumpled over sound asleep, shirt in former lap and needle still in hand.
Just got back from Florida from my daughter's almost perfect beach wedding in Ft. Walton Beach, Florida. The weather was perfect, if breezy. The bride was radiant and so very happy. She had waited a very long time for that day. The groom became so emotional he could barely read his lovely tribute and vows. I didn't flub my "who gives this bride away?" line, nor did I drop the flowers that were unexpectedly thrust in my hands. The sun was low over the Gulf of Mexico, suspended it's descent a few moments to allow photos to be taken, then went down on cue leaving a warm afterglow of both light and emotion.
The wedding party was small and mostly family. His live in that area. Bride and groom made the 12 hour drive from DFW, and bridge Mom flew in for a couple of nights. They stayed on a very nice condo on the beach. We all met at the condo, then walked out for the wedding. Onlooker peered from balconies and beach goers politely kept their distance. Afterward one family walked up to congratulate the couple and offer to take a group photo. Although very informal, my DD spent weeks getting everything ready. I kept asking what I could do to help, and finally she asked me to embroider something on her while sundress and groom's shirt. Yikes. I haven't embroidered in years and even after she delivered the dress to me in early September, it took days for me to get up the nerve to actually stitch on it. What I had planned for groom's pocket did not work, so DD suggested something and I stayed up all night the day before the left to stitch it. Not exactly what I wanted, but okay with them.
However, the weather was perfect, and the sun went down between them on cue. The bride was beautiful. The groom was besotted with love. It was a small ceremony with only family and her college roommate and child in attendance, however I noted several people on balconies watching as well as some people further down the beach. In fact one family came up applauding and to give their congratulations. Then the husband asked if we would like him to take a photo of the entire wedding party. Everybody was smiles, and by then the "minister" had wisely ducked out to make "another engagement."
Groom's sister and niece prepared far too much food for the small reception back in the condo, then plans to go out to party were scrapped and everyone went to bed before 9 ... BECAUSE ...
Earlier that day we'd been looking at the local sights, including the fishing and tourist docks. My sister's DH and imminent Son-in-Law decided on the spur of the moment that we should all go deep sea fishing the next morning. I've never been fishing, and DEEP SEA fishing was never on my list of top couple of million things to do in life. But it was either sit alone for 8 hours in the condo waiting to be taken to the airport, or tag along (despite the fact I was swigging Pepto Bismol before I even left home) and taking even a short ride on ANY boat was way against my better judgment. So the 5 of us were all up before 6am, my not-even-married-12-hours DD fixed a quick breakfast (of which I wisely only nibbled), and we were roared away from the dock at 8am for a 6-hour fishing trip to a secret spot somewhere 12 miles off-shore. I've been on cruises before with no problem, and the trip out and back didn't bother me but even large party boat endlessly rocking and rolling ... So was DD. It also played total havoc with my already iffy sense of balance to the point it was all I could do to stand, and sat as much as possible. But the weather was nice and not too warm, The Gulf apparently pretty calm (surely they were kidding!), and I fished for the first and last time, actually catching 3 fish - one that was under size and another much smaller one keepable, but with filets probably smaller than a fish stick. Mostly, however, we baited double-hooked lines then fed 95% of the bait to waiting fish and dolphins, who I swear heard the boat and wheeeed "Lunch is here," - then giggled when we reeled up heavy but empty hooks. It was not a good fishing day. I wasn't aware of how much all that rocking and rolling affected my balance until I took a quick shower before we left for airport - and almost fell over sideways. Less than 3 hours after getting off boat, I was on plane flying home. It took 2 days before my floor quit rolling and my TV and computer screen to cease rocking.
My DD and new SIL stayed another week for their honeymoon. Now they get a second opportunity at the wedding of their dreams when they repeat their vows in my parents' back yard on October 10th for a much larger group of family and friends that could not make it to Florida. Crossing fingers the weather is just as perfect, and that this time new Husband can sing the words he'd intended to before he was too overcome with emotion to do much more than whisper them.

CAL fires for brother / Mixed Bag for me
From Pasadena looking north. Mt. Wilson is just out of photo to right. Station Fire is just getting started. Later flames were seen above the ridge line and the fire moved eastward behind all of these foothills and Mt. Wilson, with the historical observatory and all those critical communication towers.
FINALLY STARTED STITCHING Pansy /5 cents, 1 over 1 on I think 28ct linen, but could be 32. It's tiny. I'm thinking little needle holder or maybe a fob.
I FINALLY had a job interview yesterday. It lasted 2 hours and was actually enjoyable, but whether that translates into a job offer, I have no idea. I have to provide a transcript from 1980 to insure I will even be considered. But I have to ask (and did) HOW is a transcript of courses I took 30+ years ago possibly relevant to what I've learned and experienced since?
Today is Mother's 83rd birthday. Last week Dad turned 85. I am so blessed that I still have BOTH parents around nearby. Mom's health could be a LOT better, but she will hardly eat anything and has become so frail. However, she still gets out to work in the yard. I found out Sunday, following a large family BD party, that she'd fallen twice in the past week, once off the thankfully low back porch. I know my heart skipped a beat when I found that out!

Red Cross CNA Training
A Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) is a vocation of the heart and requires a person be committed to the health and safety of their patients. Most duties of a CNA are likely to assist in the completion of various tasks, freeing nurses to focus on more extensive healthcare responsibilities. It is imperative that a CNA be devoted to helping others and has an attitude that no assignment is insurmountable. The CNA must treat their patients with respect and maintain their dignity as much as possible, after all the CNA is there to help their patients do those things they can not do for themselves. A qualified Certified Nursing Assistant can find employment in hospitals, nursing homes or assisted living facilities and in private home health care settings.
For a person looking to break into the health care field the American Red Cross CNA training is a great place to start. It is available in many states though the course hours may vary based on specific state requirements. The Red Cross course is a highly acclaimed, fast paced and comprehensive curriculum and may be completed in as little as two months. The participant is expected to successfully complete both classroom and hands on skill activities.
The following is a list of the minimum requirements for an American Red Cross CNA student:
· Be at least 18 years of age or older
· Have no felony convictions in the past 7 years
· Be free of any communicable diseases
· Pass a TB screening
· Not be currently pregnant
The American Red Cross course will entail classroom instruction, laboratory practice, and actual supervised experience with patients in a hospital or nursing home setting. Classrooms are set-up with all the necessary equipment to do the job such as hospital beds, practice mannequins, bed pans, wheelchairs and most likely a real Hoyer lift. Students learn how to move patients from bed to wheelchair and back again, how to take a patient's vital signs and provide assistance with feeding, bathing, grooming, dental care and so forth.
Applicants are required to pass a two-part exam upon completion of the training course. The entire process takes about 5 ½ hours. A skill assessment must be passed first before taking the written portion of the exam. Participants are notified of their test results the same day and will receive their state CNA certification a short time afterward.
The path to becoming an American Red Cross certified CNA is strenuous but in the end rewarding. To help another person with the simple tasks of day to day life and know that you are providing a real and vital service to them, makes the hardwork more than worth it.

Codes of Professional Conduct for Teachers
While the Council is responsible for drafting the codes, it is up to us as members of the teaching profession, to take ownership of them.
On the 23rd October 2006, prior to receiving the Teaching Council's Code of Professional Conduct ,the staff decided that in order to ensure the relationships between colleagues continue to be positive everyone will:
• Respect and value the contributions and qualities of others
• Respect one another - Respect each others individuality and not be afraid to be different
• Be open and communicate to the best of our ability
• Keep an open mind
• Be diplomatic
• Treat everyone equally
• Work together, be helpful
• Make contributions to planning and be involved in decision making
• Be loyal, trustworthy and be confidential when required
• Have a positive common goal in terms of what is best for the whole school community
• Tune into and be aware of others well being
• Be friendly/courteous
• Make an effort to get to know all members of staff better – more socialising together
• Be there for one another and help and support one another
• Make an effort to communicate and relate well to others
• Feel a sense of loyalty and confidentiality
Some staff discussed the codes at a planning day in May 2007, under the following headings:
The teacher and students: As teachers we will
• recognise the individual potential of students
• apply the knowledge of student's holistic development to our teaching
• establish practice that respects the dignity of all students
• plan and communicate clear, challenging and achievable expectations for students
• establish strategies to support differentiated learning
The teacher and parents: As teachers we will
· build trust with parents, actively communicate and collaborate with them in the education of their children
The teacher and curriculum: As teachers we will
· implement the curriculum in a manner that focuses not only on content but with reflection on why and how and future outcomes.
· be confident and competent in our knowledge of the curriculum
· be open to using a variety of approaches and resources in an integrated and diverse setting
· assess children's learning using a variety of methods
The teacher as learner: As teachers we will
• acknowledge interdependence of Teacher learning and Student learning
• plan for teaching and learning based on continuous reflection and evaluation of our own current practices
• recognise learning as a lifelong process
• motivate and inspire each other by sharing ideas, visions and expertise in an atmosphere of friendship and solidarity.
The teacher, the state, the community and the school: As teachers we will
• work within the framework of relevant legislation and regulations
• utilise the community as a learning resource
• work with management, students and parents in establishing and maintaining policies
The teacher as a professional was discussed at a Summer course in July 2014 and noted that what is herein, applies to all registered teachers, regardless of their position: As teachers we will
• act with honesty and integrity in all aspects of our work
• respect the privacy of others and the confidentiality of information gained in the course of professional practice
• avoid conflict between our professional work and private interests which could reasonably be deemed to impact negatively on pupils/students.
• Ensure we do not practise while under the influence of any substance which impairs our fitness to teach.
• Ensure we do not knowingly access, download or otherwise have in our possession, illicit materials/images in electronic or other format
• Report, where appropriate, incidents of or matters which impact on pupil welfare.
• maintain high standards of practice in relation to pupil/student learning, planning, monitoring, assessing, reporting and providing feedback
• create an environment where pupils/students can become active agents in the learning process and develop lifelong learning skills
• develop teaching, learning and assessment strategies that support differentiated learning in a way that respects the dignity of all pupils/students
• in a context of mutual respect, be open and responsive to constructive feedback regarding our practice and, if necessary, seek appropriate support, advice and guidance
On Wednesday 21st May 2008 Ms. Margaret Mannion (Deputy Principal) reminded staff of the part each member has to play in contributing to a positive atmosphere in the school. Jenny Mosley will visit the school in February 2009 and will do a session on relationships. Although a positive school atmosphere permeates the school, good relationships cannot be taken for granted and there is an individual responsibility on each staff member to consistently do their best to maintain good relationships with their colleagues.
On Wednesday 28th May, 2014 at a staff meeting, Ms. Úna Feeley (Principal) discussed the school vision written in 2004 with staff:
Each person through positive learning experiences will be stimulated to reach his/her full potential, face life confidently, find fulfilment and be respectful in an ever-changing world.
It was highlighted that the vision included all in the school community - children and adults (each person). Members of staff agree that the vision, written ten years ago still applies today. Staff acknowledged that the school is a happy place, where each individual recognises his/her role in making this an every-day reality for all. As humans we make mistakes. In the school there is an atmosphere of openness, forgiveness and understanding. Student and adult behaviour in the school is managed without fear or coercion. Children and adults have different needs and members of staff try their best every day, to meet those needs.
Staff with Jenny Mosley, author of the Circle Time Positive Behaviour programme

Apple will 'give Tesla a run for its money' with its latest project
Apple is working on a secret new project that will reportedly "give Tesla a run for its money"
An Apple employee has teased some exciting news with Business Insider, that the company is working on a new project that would "give Tesla a run for its money".
Business Insider reports: "After writing about how the van could be used for a self-driving car, we got an unsolicited email from an employee at Apple about "vehicle development" at the company. Apple's latest project is too exciting to pass up," the person said. "I think it will change the landscape and give Tesla a run for its money".
We know that Apple employees have been moving over to Tesla Motors in droves, but now it's being reported that Tesla employees are coming back to Apple for this mysterious project, which sounds like a stretch. If Apple were working a self-driving car, it could be a big deal, but a self-driving car consists of many technologies that need to work together perfectly, on its first shot. We'll continue to report on this as it breaks.

In the eyes of the IRS you are either an active real estate investor or a passive one. The reason for the differentiation is strictly for tax purposes. In other words, if you are an active investor (or what the IRS calls a real estate professional) the taxation rules that would apply to you are different than the rules that would apply to a passive investor.
Since Congress enacted the Tax Reform Act of 1986, in general, all real estate investment transactions are now considered passive investments. The Act introduced what are now referred to as "passive activity rules". As a result, losses arising from those passive investment activities can no longer be deducted from active income earned (salaries, wages, dividends and the like). The tax reform was enacted to deal with what was considered wide spread abuse of tax shelters at the time. Understandably, the real estate investment industry was hit hard, with many investors going bankrupt.
Prior to 1987, any losses from real estate activities could be used to offset other income, no matter how that income was earned. Now, unless you are considered a real estate professional, you can only deduct your real estate investment losses from other passive investment income (real estate investments, income from limited partnerships etc.) However, as is the case with most "rules", there are exceptions to the passive activity rules. In fact, there are two exceptions.
In the Revenue Reconciliation Act of 1993, Congress "relaxed" the rules somewhat for the active real estate investor. The act allowed taxpayers who met the requirements necessary to be considered a real estate professional to bypass the passive activity rules for real estate investments in which they materially participated. In other words, an active real estate investor could now apply unlimited losses from their real estate activities against any other earned income.
The IRS defines a real estate professional as follows:
A further, more detailed discussion of
real estate professionals can be found here.
If you were just starting out in real estate investment you would not likely be considered an active real estate investor for tax purposes. Your real estate investing activities are likely serving as a second income to your main income (ie. your job). Even though this may be the case, you could still be able to qualify to deduct some of your real estate losses against your active income. Here's how.
If you actively participate in a passive rental real estate activity, you are able to deduct up to $25,000 of the loss of the activity from your non-passive income. This rule is referred to as the '$25,000 exemption'. The key determination as to whether you qualify for this exemption is whether or not you actively participated in the real estate activity. For a more in depth look at the issues surrounding this special exemption, click here.
So what happens if you cannot claim the losses? Well, pardon the pun but, not all is lost. You have two options.
But remember, the sooner the better when it comes to claiming the losses due to the time value of money. Every dollar in taxes that you defer the payment of, can be invested by you and earn you a return until such time that you do have to pay that dollar in tax.
The most important advice I can give you regarding this topic is to seek professional help by retaining an accountant. There are some important determinations and decisions that you will need to make and an experienced accountant will help immensely with this. And remember, the accountant's fees are tax deductible!
Of course the best way to avoid worrying about real estate losses is to avoid them altogether. In fact, the main reason I began investing in commercial property 15 years ago was the positive cash flow it provided every month and the profits (not the losses) that it generated.

Denman Estate Park
Denman Estate Park is the name of a city park located in northwest San Antonio, Texas, USA.
The 21 acre public park was purchased by the City of San Antonio, and was part of the estate of attorney Gilbert J. Denman Jr., grandson of Leroy G. Denman, lawyer and jurist of the Texas Supreme Court.[1]
Notably, the park contains a "gift from South Korea to the people of San Antonio",[2] in the form of a Korean pavilion similar in design to the Gwangju Democracy Bell, in Gwangju South Korea. The pavilion (which reflects the traditional Korean methods of construction) was designed to "facilitate business and cultural friendships" between the two cities of Gwangju, South Korea and San Antonio, TX, USA. The two cities are sister cities. Architects were Yu Chang Byung and Hong Hee Lee, and the Korean firm Namkwang Construction Co., have been involved with the $1.2 million project, since its inception. The City of Kwangju provided half of those funds, while Namkwang Construction Co. also contributed to the project.[3]

What does it mean to have, to own, to be in possession of things? What is money and what role should it play in my life? What is my relationship to the earth, to my own body, to my experience of the world though my five senses? These are questions I am pondering this month, following a very powerful workshop at the Chalice Well, where our group of intrepid alchemical adventurers marked the entry of the Sun into the astrological sign of Taurus, this abundant phase of the year where nature offers us its first blossom. As the bright colours, sweet smells, sounds, tastes, and tactility of Spring awaken our senses, so we are offered an opportunity to fully inhabit our sensuous nature and appreciate the great fullness of life. The beauty and sanctity of the Chalice Well and the ritual journey we took in the Taurus figure of the Glastonbury Zodiac, offered us the opportunity to experience this at a profound level.
Magnetic Attraction
In contrast to Aries, Taurus quietly draws toward itself what it needs for its own sustenance and well-being, drawing on the magnetism of the earth element, and the attractive power of Venus, its ruling planet. So it is then, through connecting to this energy in our own lives, we can learn to attract and magnetize things to us, by being attentive to and appreciating what is right in front of us. As we learned during our Taurus weekend, by drawing on this resource and allowing our sensory experiences to come to us (rather than seeking them out), we gain access to a level of perceptual sensitivity which we might ordinarily miss. Ben Rayner, who was co-facilitating the weekend with Anthony and myself really helped us to realise this, through the sensory perception and expanded awareness practices that he taught us.
Enough Already
The Taurus phase teaches us the value of "enough", the recognition that we may already have everything we need to live a happy and fulfilled life. In the current economic climate, our culture is having to face the realisation that stuffing our lives full of "more" isn't sufficient for our sustenance and well-being. I remember Lynne Twist once saying that in our modern quest for abundance, we often sail right past the exquisite beauty of "enough" without even realising it – driven on by our scarcity-ridden belief that "more is better". So my own practice this month is to sense what is enough for me, to realise what I actually need to be secure and what I could happily and joyfully do without – and celebrate that!
Authentic Ownership
I equate this practice of what I call "authentic ownership" with the experience of fully inhabiting my body, claiming a right to the ground that I walk upon, the air that I breathe, the interactions that give my life value and the sensuous delights of the present moment. To embrace this without attachment, without seeking to claim exclusive rights over any of these things frees me to be more fully present to the natural abundance of life.
Sufficiency & Sustainability
The manifestation / law of attraction books and films such as "The Secret" have offered us powerful keys to help us manifest our creative potential, and they include gratitude as an important component of that. However, I'd personally love to see them focussing more on the distinctions of sufficiency and sustainability as part of the context for manifestation, and less on the acquisition of monetary wealth and the accumulation of material things for their own sake. A celebratory appreciation of the resources that we already have, including money and material assets, as well as our own skills and abilities, can free us up to find more creative ways to express and channel that which we have blessed with. When we relax the anxiety that comes from thinking we need more of everything, a whole world of already existing riches opens up. We also become more powerful attractors in the process!
Next Workshop in Glastonbury: Gemini – 23rd / 24th May
Our next Alchemical Journey workshop in Glastonbury is our Gemini event, The Alchemy of Communication, on the 23rd / 24th May in Glastonbury. We'll be exploring the creative power of language and learn to become more effective communicators. For details, visit: http://www.thealchemicaljourney.com/may2009.php
The workshop is open to all – and it would be great if you can join us and taste the magic of this journey with us. Have a great Taurean month and hope you find your treasure.

Have you ever heard the term anabolism? This biochemical process allows us to grow and repair the damage in the body.
Biochemical processes occurring within the body of a living being are called metabolism. There are two types of metabolic reactions, namely catabolism and anabolism. The reaction of catabolism breaks down complex molecules into simpler forms, usually these reactions produce energy. Instead, anabolism is responsible for forming or synthesizing more complex molecules of simple molecules.
Function of Anabolic Reactions in the Body
Anabolism, also called biosynthesis, allows the body to build or grow new cells and maintain body tissues. The trick is to use the energy produced by the reaction of catabolism, the reaction of anabolism synthesize various hormones, enzymes, and other substances as material to grow cells and tissues. Proverbial, builders use bricks to make a house. Examples of anabolic processes include growth and bone mineralization and increased muscle mass.
The following hormones are categorized as anabolic hormones.
Growth hormone. This hormone is made in the pituitary gland (the small gland below the brain). Its function is for body growth. Too much growth hormone in childhood can cause a person to grow higher than average (gigantism). Whereas if too little can cause the body height is less than average (dwarfism).
Insulin-like growth factors (IGF-1) and growth factors like other insulin, the hormones that stimulate protein and sulfate production. IGF-I and IGF-2 play an important role in uterine and placental growth, as well as early growth of the fetus during pregnancy IGF 1 also works for the growth of childhood and continues to have anabolic effects in adults.
Insulin, a hormone made by the pancreas gland. Insulin is responsible for regulating the level of glucose (sugar) in the blood, helping the body convert the consumed food into energy, and helps to store energy. The body's cells can not take advantage of glucose without insulin.
Testosterone, the male hormone produced in the testes. Testosterone causes the formation of sperm and the development of male characteristics, such as heavier voices, larger muscles, and hair growth on the face and body. The hormone testosterone plays an important role throughout the body because it affects the brain, bone and muscle mass, fat distribution, vascular system, energy level, genital tissue, and function. Not only in men, the hormone testosterone is also produced in the female body, but the number is less.
The process of anabolism is very important for the body. Without a process that utilizes this energy, our continued growth and cell proliferation may not occur. Furthermore, in Anabolic Cooking you can find the recipes to boosting the body to better state in accordance of of how anabolic works.

"Really lovely cafe where you get a warm welcome and the food is tasty and well presented. It is hidden behind the church so drive down the right hand side of the church -there is plenty of parking space. Gets busy on a Sunday but useful if you want a coffee before or after church!" – Visited February 2017
"Visited with my daughter, best friend and her little girl for breakfast. Our orders got taken, and drinks were brought over near enough straight away, we had ordered scrambled egg on toast, a bun and a glass of milk for the girls which is on a kids deal which was fab. Me and my friend ordered full English breakfasts, with a latte, these came quickly and the service was spot on. The staff made a fuss of the children which was lovely as well. The coffee shop was lovely and clean, we will definitely be back. Thankyou :)" – Visited February 2017
"Only had coffee with a friend so can't comment on anything else. The surroundings are pleasant and there is a car park, a rarity on Chatsworth Rd. The staff were very pleasant and my friend and I were allowed to natter in peace. Decent cup of coffee. – Visited January 2017
"The scones, when freshly baked, are a joy and the staff are very pleasant. The place is always busy and if the weather is good there is a nice patio area to sit and contemplate on."
Always, friendly, good value and now have a new chef with lots of good ideas!
Great for coffee, lunch, meetings. Children welcome." – Visited December 2016

Virgin Media Q2 2018 results: Measured approach in a tough market
Virgin Media had a mixed quarter, with subscriber ARPU growth maintained, partly driven by a triple play focus with pay TV and telephony adds much improved, but subscriber and broadband net adds unchanged
Cable revenue growth did slow from 3.6% to 3.1%, mainly due to the previous quarter's net adds slowdown working through, and it is still growing the fastest of the big operators in a slow-growth market that still suffers from pricing pressure at the low end
Its network roll-out was slower than last year and only just above the weather-impacted previous quarter, which appears to be deliberate, and which may at least partly relate to an uncertain regulatory and commercial climate over 'full fibre' roll-out by others

Regulating harmful video content and advertising online: Publisher, platform or in between?
Video-sharing platforms, such as YouTube and Facebook video, enjoy a light-touch regulatory regime for harmful content and advertising. As video viewing of non-broadcaster content grows, the regulatory gap between TV broadcasters and video-sharing platforms widens, part of a broader uneven playing field for publishers and platforms
However, there is momentum against this: the "platforms vs publishers" divide looks set to weaken in EU law, and the platforms themselves are investing more in combatting harmful content within a self-regulatory regime, though their internal policies and outcomes are still opaque
Effective and fair regulation of video-sharing platforms would involve the balancing of national freedom of speech conventions and the public utility of user-generated video hosting with concerned stakeholder views: something approaching a co-regulatory system for online video-sharing platforms

Local TV - Five years after launch
Although launched with an array of public service goals in mind, local TV's flawed design has created a sector struggling to live up to its optimistic ambitions.
Five years and £37 million of licence fee monies later, it is unclear what public service contributions are being made, or whether the scheme has provided value-for-money. A wholesale review of the sector is urgently needed.
The vision of a "thriving and sustainable" sector has fallen flat. Most licences remain loss-making, with doubts as to their long-term viability. Those operating low-cost models seem best placed to survive.

Consumer magazine publishing: Quality, not quantity
The decline in demand in print presents trading challenges, but the more immediate pressures are on the supply side, with a 15% rise in paper prices accentuating the burden of production and distribution costs
With digital advertising growing at stubbornly low rates, UK publishers need to return to their fundamental consumer-centred strengths by switching their strategic attention towards strong brands, curation, and community
The case for specialist, branded publishing media remains robust: products, services, and consumers are still best brought together in an authoritative, trusted media environment. Advertisers and agencies (and also media) have undervalued the effectiveness of those environments, and direct-to-consumer opportunities have been exaggerated by many brands

BT Q1 2018/19 results: On target in the short term, making progress for the long term
BT's Q1 results were fairly robust given a number of one-offs hitting in the quarter, with revenue growth of -2% in line with full year guidance, EBITDA growth of 1% ahead of plan, and a number of metrics looking promising
Openreach's newly announced volume discount plans offer advantages in growing high and higher speed volumes, infrastructure competitiveness and regulatory pricing pressure, while giving up little in external revenue, a win-win-win for BT at least
Full-fibre regulation appears to be slowly moving towards more clarity, but is still far too unclear to justify an accelerated investment, with critical issues being ducked (for now) by government and Ofcom alike

Revenues down, guidance in the balance: Vodafone Q1 2018/19 results
EBITDA growth guidance of 1-5% is in question with group revenues flat to down. Counting AMAP growth in local currencies helps, as will cost control and roaming relief. Sustaining growth in Germany will be key; convergence-led ARPU declines could prove to be something Vodafone can't afford
Vodafone's UK business performed strongly in terms of mobile subscribers and fixed business financials, although revenue growth is still lacklustre. Profitability is expected to increase markedly, boosted 10ppts by roaming tariff relief
Although we view Iliad's business model in Italy as unsustainable, it will nonetheless continue to put significant pressure on Vodafone Italy's ARPU, which is almost three times that of Iliad's package

ITV emphasised its strength and stability at its interim results; a sensible enough approach with a new CEO, and a departing FD/COO

Hulu: Why Disney wants 21st Century Fox
Disney's potential acquisition of certain 21st Century Fox assets is assuredly a play for further scale at a time when the company's traditional domain, the family home, is increasingly welcoming services such as Netflix
The deal will consolidate Disney's dominant film business. But also, the robustness of traditional television, especially 21CF's cable interests, along with IP assets, will allow Disney to better control the inevitable viewer transition from linear to online and on-demand
Becoming the one media company with both a strong broadcast and online offering—the control of Hulu, a new Disney streaming service, ESPN+ and other add-on services—could grant Disney the ability to navigate the storm of change and dictate its own future

Quality media, Ozone protection
The Telegraph, The Guardian and News UK (The Times and The Sun) will jointly invest in The Ozone Project to develop a state-of-the-art platform to sell their digital inventory
Ozone will add value to news digital inventory and seek to win back advertiser expenditure on Facebook and Google's various properties, (indirectly) reigniting interest in placement next to quality news media content
Each JV participant operates a distinct business model, which risks friction, but this digital reboot is crucial. By 2020, Ozone could add circa £30 million per annum – not a trivial contribution to a national newspaper newsroom

The drive for convergence: a value-destructive strategy
Many European telecoms operators are pursuing a fixed/mobile convergence strategy on the pretext that the addition of mobile reduces churn. We see no evidence of churn reduction from this strategy
Discounts required to encourage take-up of fixed/mobile services are often value-destructive, even before competitor reaction: a 10% bundle discount necessitates a 2ppt improvement in churn to wash its face economically. M&A premia on the basis of convergence synergies raise the hurdle even higher
Most UK operators offer very limited discounts on fixed/mobile bundles for now, sensibly focusing on enhanced services. Vodafone is the most aggressive, albeit less so than it is elsewhere. All UK players should hope that it stays this way

AV ad measurement: meretricious metrics
Rigour and consistency in AV ad metrics is proving elusive. A 10-second ad on YouTube, ITV1, All4, MailOnline, Sky AdSmart or Facebook is measured in as many different ways, often indifferently. It is tricky, costly or impossible for agencies/advertisers to comprehend the overall picture
By 2020 JIC-based BVOD ad impressions should be available from BARB all being well, giving BVOD a clear advantage over other premium online video measurement
Google/YouTube seems to be 'getting' JIC co-operation now and has begun to galvanise video ad measurement, but forceful advertiser intervention is needed to extend and improve standards. Otherwise, advertisers are simply funding a JIC-free jamboree, and they (with content media) will lose the most

Focus back on ARPU: TalkTalk Group Q1 2018/19 results
TalkTalk had another strong quarter for broadband net adds, adding 80k versus its full year target of 150k+. All of this was due to strong wholesale, with retail net adds slightly negative, although in the market and seasonal context even this retail performance is quite respectable
On-net revenue growth improved strongly to around 4%, with its ARPU decline moderating to 2%, and ARPU should be helped further by price increases for existing and new customers alike in July
TalkTalk therefore looks well placed to hit full year targets, albeit with considerable help from its wholesale customers and some aggressive price increases. The focus back onto ARPU and away from (expensively) chasing retail subscriber growth is nonetheless to be applauded

TV platform forecasts to 2022: stability rules
Despite significant changes in people's video viewing habits over the last few years, the TV platform landscape has appeared to reach an equilibrium
We expect pay-TV to retain its utility status for most existing customers. At the margins, movement from Sky and Virgin Media to free-to-air or pay-lite services will be mitigated by population growth
The excitable growth phases for Netflix and Amazon are likely to be over, but they have carved out prominent positions in the market. Meanwhile, the uncomplicated allure of free TV remains strong for half the UK

Is CRR still critical to protect advertisers from ITV?
The workings of the TV advertising market are a mystery to most. Overlaying an arcane 'share of broadcast spend' trading mechanism is regulation in the form of CRR, which has prevented anti-competitive activity by ITV since 2003
CRR will protect advertisers 'for as long as needed'. Most advertisers we canvassed believe it should stay in place, but the sell-side and auditors say CRR has passed its 'Best before' date and is heading towards its 'Use by' date
We propose a review of CRR by the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) to determine whether it is now helping or hindering the TV advertising ecosystem to become fit-for-purpose for the digital age

Tech players, pay-TV operators, and manufacturers are all aiming to control the user interface, ad delivery and data collection, leaving incumbent broadcaster interests less well represented

Sky finally renews Serie A rights until 2021
Italy's top football league awarded Sky the broadcasting rights to seven games per week from August 2018 until May 2021 for €780 million per year, up €208 million. UK-based Perform will carry three games for €193 million. Mediaset exits the market, freeing Sky from price competition
Besides Serie A, Sky added Mediaset's Hollywood series and films to its content line up in May and will include the Champions League from August. We expect costs to rise by up to €500 million per year, which could be recouped by cuts in content and by recruiting Mediaset subscribers, notably on Sky's new DTT feed
The best model for Perform would be to wholesale its new DAZN service to Sky, but even if a deal is found we doubt it could break even within the rights cycle

Advertising after the turning point: when offline is the exception
Online advertising became the majority of all UK ad spend last year, in step with China but ahead of all other major markets.
Direct response has further increased its share to 54% of UK ad spend, fuelled by the self-serve platforms of Google, Facebook and Amazon, while content media nets just 11% of the online advertising pot.
We estimate that all online-delivered channels - including "pure play" online properties, broadcaster VOD, digital out-of-home and online radio - could account for well over 60% of UK ad spend by 2020, but only with improved commitment to industry governance.

UK broadband, telephony and pay TV trends Q1 2018: Diverging strategies
UK residential communications market revenue growth strengthened in Q1, but this was entirely driven by an overlapping price increase from BT, and the decline in market volume growth continues
Continued pressure on both subscriber volume growth and ARPU has led to diverging strategies, with most operators focused on sustaining ARPU, but TalkTalk chasing volumes at the low end, with the former approach currently proving more successful
Looking forward, the benefit of BT's price rise will fall away completely next quarter and market revenue growth will likely resume its downward trend, but the nadir may be within sight if the flight to quality persists at most operators

Below is my TAST tag for the week. It is called the Whipped Wheel but I have also seen it referred to as the Whipped Spider Wheel. The wheels with six spokes does have kind of a 'spider' look to it. I used some bright floss on this tag. I am enjoying playing with different color combinations each week almost as much as I am enjoying experimenting with and/or learning a new stitch each week.
Somehow I got started doing a tree on each tag using the new stitch for the week. I know some weeks are going to be a real challenge, but that is what also makes it fun. For this one I was going to do stacking wheels that progressively got smaller but then I read that you can do a partial wheel in this stitch so here is my tree.
I have done 11 tags so far and only one does not have a tree on it. The second week we did the buttonhole stitch and I plan to go back and add a tree to it. That should be an easy one to accomplish. Maybe I will do a composite of all my trees at the end of the year.

The AgriCulture Fest and Feast held in Greeley in August received the Governor's Award for Outstanding Community Tourism Initiative. The award was presented to event representatives at a dinner held October 30 during the 2014 Colorado Governor's Tourism Conference in Westminster. This highly competitive award was one of only six awards presented that evening.
The Outstanding Initiative Award acknowledges an activity, event, or project undertaken by a community or region to promote tourism in Colorado. The newly created AgriCULTURE Fest and Feast is collaboration between the Greeley Creative District, The Tribune and the Greeley Downtown Development Authority. The steering committee also included representatives from The City of Greeley, The Greeley Farmer's Market, The University of Northern Colorado, members of the agricultural and culinary arts community, and more.
"This is an outstanding example of the spirit & the core of the Greeley community. The timing of this event was ideal for aligning shared goals & visions of the DDA, GCD & The Tribune. It is an honor to stand side by side by as partners with Greeley elevated as an example to our state that is full of amazing tourism experiences," said Emily V Tilton, Event Producer with The Tribune. "Connecting the community in a collaborative production focused on the roots & the growing strengths of the people of Greeley resulted in a diverse experience shared by neighbors from across the county. Recognition for celebrating who we are as a community speaks volumes to our original goals. The spirit of AgriCulture Fest and Feast is still alive and will continue to grow with each new season."
As a celebration of Greeley and Weld County's agricultural roots and heritage, the daytime segment featured a petting zoo, tractor show, gardening and growing demonstrations, hay wagon rides, a history and heritage area, and booths representing many ag producers such as Northern Colorado Feed and Bean, Grant Farms, The Water Conservancy, 4 Rivers Equipment, and many more. The Tribune's Event Producer, Emily V Tilton, spearheaded the efforts of the daytime festivities, while the Greeley Creative District organized the evening's ticketed dinner for 250 attendees.
Throughout the day, visitors enjoyed entertainment from "The Green Bean Boys," "The Tumbleyweeds", "Colorado Rose", "Merry Mixers Square Dancers," and chamber players from the Greeley Philharmonic, among others.
The evening event was a ticketed sit-down dinner for 250 people and served as a fundraiser for the Creative District. Close to 100% of the food was procured from Weld County producers. Including 295 pounds of New York Strip steak from JBS Swift, Seven local chefs showed off their culinary skills with each preparing one or two courses. The dinner was served family, or "harvest" style in a "farm to table" like setting, but in an urban environment under the twinkling lights of the 8th St. plaza in downtown Greeley.
"We are extremely proud and honored to have received such a prestigious award for an event that is basically in its infancy" said Alison Hamling of the Greeley Creative District and the DDA. "our collaborative efforts and the way we celebrated our local growers and agricultural history made it so special and unique."

Expert facelift combining US & EU techniques.
The natural ageing process can take its toll on your face. Collagen, which makes our skin plump and smooth, begins to decrease and elastin fibres, which provide our skin with its stretch and bounce, start to wear away. All this combined with lifestyle factors, such as sun exposure, smoking and drinking, all make our face prone to sagging and wrinkles.

Indoor air quality or the indoor environment applies to all of our homes – existing or new – and all of us can take immediate actions to breathe well in our homes. For me, the first steps were my choices of cleaning products. I switched to non-toxic, safer cleaners and even a few homemade ones. There are many available today both in your local store and online.
Next, you will want to look at when and how your home was built, as this impacts the actions you may take. Much older homes may have been originally designed to have coal heat and likely are leakier. Homes from the 1970s and 1980s may be airtight to be more energy efficient, yet not well ventilated. We often hear that a home needs to breathe, although this is not quite right – people need to breathe. So where did the confusion come from? Many older homes that used coal as a heating source were built for the smoke to leave the home, and would be considered leaky. In today's language, the term "a home needs to breathe" means fresh air is brought in and old, stale air is exhausted – just like people breathe.
If you compare your home to your body, the ventilation system (typically coupled with your heating and/or cooling system) would be the "lungs" of your home. These "lungs" of your home breathe in fresh air and breathe out bad air. Now think of you breathing through a scarf and how it filters air in both directions. That "scarf" is whatever material is in the walls, ceiling, floor of your home – wherever your home may be leaking. So whatever material is near or over these leaks is what is filtering the air coming in and going out through the leaks. These uncontrolled air movements are often responsible for bringing in unwanted pollutants, including mold, mildew, allergens and more. For instance, if your home has batt insulation installed with little or minimal air sealing, the batt material (typically fiberglass) is filtering the air coming through the leaky spots in a home.
A better way to get air in and out of the home would be to think of a snorkel exhaling stale air out and bringing in fresh air in a concentrated, planned way. A nice tight seal around home coupled with good ventilation ensures that air is coming in and out of the home as directed.

Breathing is important. None of us intentionally want to have stuff in our homes that makes us not breathe well. I realize if you can't see it, smell it or don't know it's there, it's human nature to not acknowledge there may be an issue – I guess it's a way of kind of sticking our heads in the sand. It's time for all of us to start reading labels and taking responsibility for our own actions and our own wellness in our homes. Mold and mildew, including black mold, can be an impact on the air quality in our homes and our health. More of us are becoming increasingly sensitive to chemicals, allergens, toxins, etc. Environmental conditions both indoors and outdoors are impacting rise in asthma, allergies, COPD and other respiratory ailments. A little prevention goes a long way and can prevent many medical issues down the road.
How to Improve the Indoor Air Quality in your home
First, control pollutants coming in as much as possible. Choose less-toxic or non-toxic materials for home selections such as paint, adhesives, sealants, caulk, flooring, wall coverings, cabinetry and furnishings. Look for low or no VOC options and materials without urea formaldehyde. Low to no VOC paints, finishes, sealants, adhesives are readily available and offer great performance with fewer toxins. Where these options may not be available, allow the home to off-gas with windows open for a few days to help.
Second, seal up your home as much as possible. Several tubes of caulk can go a long way towards sealing up the cracks and small penetrations in your home. This is a great place to bring in an energy auditor to identify places to seal up. If the home is being built or remodeled, this is a great time to seal up wherever 2 pieces of material meet. For attached garages being built, be sure the garage is air sealed from the home to keep fumes and exhaust out. Weather-stripping or adding a gasket around the door between the garage and home helps too, for both new and existing homes. If you have a fireplace, be sure it is vented correctly. Again, this is a great area to seek some professional help.
Third, store chemicals safely or better yet limit use of chemicals in your yard and home. Many household and yard products contain toxic chemicals and fumes. If it is hazardous to children and pets, you may want to reconsider having it around at all. There are many non-toxic, safer products available for our homes, yards and gardens. There are also many natural ways to address many of the issues we run into around our homes.
There are many ways to be green – natural, sustainable, responsible (chemical composition known, and transparency about what's in stuff and what is "safe enough" to be in our homes). Doing a little homework about what you bring in to your home can go a long way.
Bringing in a professional to help figure all this out can help you identify the areas where improvements will make the greatest impact and what those improvements/changes are. An energy auditor is a great resource to help identify how to tighten up and better ventilate your home so you can breathe well. Many interior designers and decorators are becoming educated about sustainable and green options and can help you have a home that looks good and performs well.

That's right, I am in love with sketch challenges. I like them much more than color or inspiration challenges. Don't get me wrong I like those types of challenges, but sketches are my favorite. For today I am giving you a look at what I made after being inspired by the sketch challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments.
For sketch challenges I always test myself. First, I study the sketch and ponder some ideas. Then, I shut my computer and create my card, which includes the sketch layout, from memory. Sometimes I am right on the money with the sketch; every now and again I am way out to dinner. For this one I think I am on the money!
Here is what I used:
1. Card base: 6" x 6" Soft Sky folded in half.
2. Sweet Sorbet DSP 2 7/8" x 5 7/8"panel.
3. Punch (3) Triangles from Sweet Sorbet DSP.
4. Ink See Ya Later image with Peach Parfait, Smokey Slate, Pool Party, & Summer Starfruit Stampin' Write Markers.
5. Crop image using the 2 /12" Circle Punch.
6. Layer punched focal image on a Peach Parfait Starburst Framelit & add to card with Dimensionals.
7. Add Basic Pearls.
8. Add wooden people pieces from the December Paper Pumpkin Kit.

Sign at the site of the planned EPIC Theatres site in Mount Dora
off U.S. Highway 441 between Target and Wal-Mart.
(Jerry Fallstrom / Orlando Sentinel)
Mount Dora repeals ordinance,
clearing final hurdle for long-awaited EPIC movie theater
The promised EPIC Theatres movie venue has taken a long time to become a reality.
But the multiplex is closer to happening.
EPIC Theatres picked up building permits last week to start on a project that was announced more than two years ago.
A 14-screen multiplex along U.S. Highway 441 between Target and Walmart.
The final hurdle was overcome the day before when City Council members approved repealing an arts ordinance that would have cost the theater company about $100,000.
The ordinance required property owners to pay a sliding fee that depended on the total cost of their commercial project that went toward arts that benefits the public.
For EPIC, the city required the theater company to pay 1 percent of the $10 million project for art, which would have amounted to $100,000.
The company's attorney Derek Schroth argued the ordinance was an illegal tax
and the city's attorney agreed that it wouldn't hold up in court.
The 17-acre site will be EPIC's second location in Lake County.
EPIC opened a 16-screen multiplex in Clermont in 2009.
EPIC Theatres President Frank DeMarsh said they estimate
the theater could be open in about 13 months.
"It's great, but for us, it wasn't the best thing to have this project take so long to start,"
DeMarsh said.
"but I'm very glad it's getting started, and I know residents are as well."

London's Air Ambulance
|Charitable organisation
Area served
|Greater London
Medical director
|Gareth Davies
|Jonathan Jenkins
London's Air Ambulance Charity is a registered charity that operates a Helicopter Emergency Medical Service (HEMS) dedicated to responding to serious trauma emergencies in and around London.[1] Using a helicopter from 08:00 to sunset and rapid response vehicles by night, the service performs advanced medical interventions at the scene of the incident in life-threatening, time-critical situations.
The charity was founded in 1989 in response to a report by the Royal College of Surgeons, which documented cases of patients dying unnecessarily because of the delay in receiving prompt and appropriate medical care. The charity was the first in the UK to carry a senior doctor in addition to a paramedic at all times on a helicopter, introducing a system that reduces the death rate in severe trauma by 30–40%.[2]
From its base at The Royal London Hospital in Whitechapel, East London, a helicopter can reach any patient inside the M25 London orbital motorway, which acts as the service's catchment area, within 15 minutes. Missions commonly involve serious road traffic collisions, falls from height, stabbings and shootings, industrial accidents and incidents on the rail network. The team can perform advanced life-saving medical interventions, including open heart surgery, blood transfusion and anaesthesia, at the scene. The charity operates 24 hours a day, serving the 10 million people who live, work and travel within the M25. The service treats an average of five patients every day.
Pre-hospital emergency medical care[edit]
London's Air Ambulance Charity has been at the forefront of innovation in pre-hospital emergency medical care since its inception in 1989. The service has adopted elements of medical, military and aviation culture to deliver the highest standards in intensive care to the roadside. The governance system and Standard Operating Procedures developed by the organisation are seen as a benchmark for other air ambulances across the world.
London sees some of the highest level of trauma in the world.[citation needed] Treatment by the service can increase patient's chances of survival and recovery.
London's Air Ambulance was the first service in the world to perform thoracotomy at the roadside.[citation needed] The service has the world's highest survival rates from this procedure in pre-hospital environment,[citation needed] with patient's chances of survival rising from zero to 18%.
London's Air Ambulance carries a senior doctor in addition to a paramedic at all times, providing a 24/7 advanced trauma care outside of hospital, provide general anaesthetics on scene, and carry blood on board and administer blood transfusion on the roadside. From 2018, a consultant in pre-hospital emergency medicine will be present on most shifts, in addition to the other physician and paramedic.
In 2014, London's Air Ambulance performed the first pre-hospital Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA).[3][4][5] Other key treatments performed by the service include surgical chest draining (thoracostomy), surgical and non-surgical Rapid Sequence Induction (RSI), pelvic splinting (crucial to prevent blood loss in high impact crashes and crush injuries), advanced pain relief and sedation. The service started a trial of a portable brain scanner which can detect blood clots on the brain in April 2015.[6]
The service's first helicopter was an Aérospatiale SA 365N Dauphin 2. Built in 1982, it was registered G-HEMS, and delivered in December 1988, in time for the launch of the service in 1989.[7][8] It initially wore a white livery, but was repainted several times, eventually into a red livery following sponsorship by Virgin.[9] It was retired from service in 2000.
There are two MD Helicopters MD 902 Explorers currently in use, registrations G-EHMS and G-LNDN. Both wear the same red-based livery, with green and yellow flashes, and are identical in model, equipment and crew. Only one helicopter is operational per day - the other acts as a spare in case of break down, maintenance or, in a major incident, both helicopters are able to deploy. The helicopters usually cruise at 130 knots (240 km/h; 150 mph), at an altitude of anywhere between 500 and 1,000 ft. A regular fuel load, around 400 kg, allows for one hour's flying time.[10]
Following a children's competition, the two helicopters were given names which are displayed on the side of each aircraft. In February 2016, G-LNDN was named 'Walter' after the winning entrant's grandfather, whilst G-EHMS was named 'Rowan' in April 2016 after the winning entrant's sister.[11][12]
G-EHMS Rowan[edit]
G-EHMS was built in 2000 and entered service in October of the same year, replacing the earlier SA 365N Dauphin 2. From 6 March 2012, the helicopter became the UK's first air ambulance to carry emergency blood supplies, allowing transfusions to be administered at the scene of an accident rather than later in hospital.[13] A specialised refrigerator installed in the helicopter allows the transport of four units of the universal O-negative blood type which can be stored in the aircraft for up to 72 hours (unused stocks can be returned to the hospital).
G-LNDN Walter[edit]
In 2015, the service launched a public appeal to raise £6 million to purchase, convert, equip, and operate a second helicopter. Of the total needed, just over £4m represented the purchase price of the aircraft.[14] £2m was donated by the London Freemasons,[15][16] which covered half the purchase price. The United Kingdom Government contributed £1m using funds obtained from fines imposed on banks,[16] with the remaining £1m being raised by public subscription.
In January 2016, the service took delivery of its second MD 902, registration G-LNDN. Built in 2008, the aircraft was previously registered in Qatar.[17] In addition to the standard livery, it bears the masonic Square and Compasses symbol on each side, with the words "London Freemasons" lettered under the doors, to reflect the significant funding from the organisation.
Rapid response cars[edit]
At night, or when the helicopters are offline the medical crew, including a paramedic and senior trauma doctor, still respond to emergencies, but travel in a specially equipped rapid response car. They are noticeable from other ambulance vehicles as they are painted in red with high-visibility markings to display their advanced trauma team status.
A four-wheel drive Skoda Kodiaq Estate is also operated seven days a week by the Physician Response Unit (PRU).
The service costs approximately £10m per year to run. Barts Health NHS Trust provides the helipad facility at The Royal London Hospital and remunerates the doctors seconded to and consultants permanently associated with the service.[18] London Ambulance Service employs and remunerates the paramedics seconded to the service.[19] London's Air Ambulance is a registered charity (number 801013) and the service is funded through charitable donations and corporate donors. The charity also runs a lottery for £1 a week to raise funds for the service, and holds a number of small and large scale fundraising events throughout the year.
Missions and major incidents[edit]
London's Air Ambulance has attended more than 38,000 missions since its inception in 1989. In 2017, London's Air Ambulance attended 1,797 patient missions and three major incidents.
- 533 Road traffic collisions
- 560 Penetrating trauma (stabbings and shootings)
- 412 Falls from height
- 292 Other (incidents on the rail network, industrial accidents, asphyxiation, drowning etc.)
Over the past 29 years, the service has coordinated medical response to the majority of London's major incidents, including the 7/7 bombings, the Soho nail bombing, the Grenfell Tower Fire, the Bishopsgate, Aldwych, Westminster and London Bridge terrorist attacks and Paddington, Cannon Street and Southall rail crashes. On 7 July 2005, London's Air Ambulance dispatched 18 teams and flew medical supplies to the bomb sites across London, triaging and treating over 700 patients.
The helicopter crew consists of a pilot and co-pilot, in addition to an advanced trauma doctor, paramedic and, on most missions, a consultant. At night or in adverse weather conditions, the same medical crew operate from a rapid response car, which is driven by the paramedic on blue lights and navigated by the doctor.
Helipad fire & rescue[edit]
On arrival at the Royal London Hospital helipad, the dedicated helipad ground crew (fire crew) receive the patient and a dedicated, express elevator carries the patient to the accident and emergency department on the ground floor – where a trauma team with A&E doctors, general surgeons, specialist trauma surgeons, and anaesthetists assemble to assess and treat them.
Fire crew must always be present when a helicopter lands or takes off from the helipad.
Television appearances[edit]
In 2004, the service was featured heavily in the BBC television series Trauma.[20] In 2009, a standalone documentary about the air ambulance was made for the BBC by North One Television. Medic One: Life and Death in London showcased the service in a number of emergencies.[21] In 1994, they featured in a special episode of the BBC series 999 entitled "The Flying Doctors". They also featured in BBC Two's An Hour to Save Your Life.
The HEMS Medical Director is Dr. Gareth Davies. Davies is also an Accident & Emergency and Pre-hospital Care Consultant working at The Royal London Hospital.
Concerns were expressed in the media after the charity dismissed its Chief Executive in 2009.[22] The Charity Commission promptly made recommendations on governance to the trustees, but did not express an opinion over the dismissal.[23]
Physician Response Unit[edit]
The Physician Response Unit (PRU) is run by the service in partnership with Barts Health NHS Trust and London Ambulance Service NHS Trust. The service was remodelled in October 2017 to become a 12-hours a day, seven days a week service thanks to funding from Tower Hamlets Together.[24]
The PRU is staffed by a senior doctor and a London Ambulance Service EAC. The PRU carries advanced medication, equipment and treatments usually only found in hospital, such as instant result blood tests, urine tests and sutures to stitch serious wounds. In the remodelled service's first six months, 68% of patients were treated in the community.[25]
