Lyric Theatre, Queensland Performing Arts Centre
This now legendary production of The King and I won the triple crown of awards, the Tony, the Drama Desk and the Outer Critics Circle for Best Musical Revival. It was also awarded numerous Tony and Drama Desk awards including Best Scenic Design and Best Costume Design, and a Laurence Olivier Award nomination.
Whilst the sumptuous costumes and gilded sets have travelled the world, it all started in Australia, with a dream to create a version which was not just a remake of the iconic 1956 film, but a real consideration of this clash of cultures and meeting of minds.
Christopher Renshaw was the perfect choice of director and together with Brian Thomson he travelled to Thailand, where they discovered a deep affection for the rich and nuanced culture of Siam. Australian costume designer Roger Kirk joined and an award winning creative team was born.
"I was dazzled"
When Richard Rodgers' daughter, Mary Rodgers, saw it, she declared it the best King and I she had ever experienced. "I was dazzled," she enthused. "I actually thought that Chris had changed and improved some lines. But he hadn't changed anything. He'd just found how to emphasise certain things."
"The most ravishing show you may ever see."
The production opened at the Adelaide Festival Theatre in 1991, followed by a highly successful Australian tour.
The show reopened at the Neil SimonTheatre on Broadway in 1996, followed by a US tour, then transferred to the London Palladium in 2000, where it played for nearly two years before embarking on a UK tour.
Audiences were thrilled by the period costumes - including Anna's enormous crinoline skirts - and by the lavish, meticulously researched sets. With these insights, an exotic fairytale becomes spiced with real culture and real human emotion.
"This King and I is an unstoppable smash"
Don't miss this dazzling production of the beloved Rodgers & Hammerstein musical.

One of the most difficult decisions a family faces is when to move an elderly family member into specialized housing.
How to start can be overwhelming, but if you follow certain steps, it can make the search more manageable.
One of the first questions you must answer is what kind of care your family member needs.
Virginia Traweek, of SeniorHousingMove.com in Dallas, said there are essentially four different levels of care offered by senior living communities, and it's important to understand what each offers:
• Independent living. For seniors who don't require assistance. Independent living is usually offered in either apartment or cottage settings and generally includes meals, housekeeping and social events. Costs can range from $1,000 to $3,000 a month, she said.
• Assisted living. For seniors needing assistance with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing and eating. Costs range from $3,000 to $5,500 a month.
• Memory support/dementia care. For seniors with cognitive decline because of Alzheimer's or other diseases. Costs range from $3,000 to $5,500 a month.
• Skilled nursing care. For seniors in the end stage of life who require care 24 hours a day. Costs range from $4,166 to $6,666 a month.
In addition, there are senior living communities that offer multiple levels of care on the same campus in what is called a continuing care retirement community, or CCRC.
For a CCRC, the entrance fee ranges from $150,000 to $400,000, with 90 percent refundable when you move out, Traweek said. Monthly fees range from $1,500 to $3,000, depending on whether the resident is single or in a couple and on the services provided.
A senior living community will want to assess your loved one's needs before they move in.
"One of the most difficult things for family members is to be objective about the condition that their parents are in," said John Falldine, managing director of the Edgemere senior living community in Dallas.
Here are other steps you should follow in choosing the correct senior housing:
• Start early. "Even if you think you won't need senior care for a long time, learning about local communities, their pricing and amenities can make it easier when you decide to move," said Traweek, a former senior housing development consultant.
Also, she notes that there are advantages to moving into senior housing before there's a crisis.
• Visit the communities. This is critical. There's no better way to get to know a community than spending time there.
When you visit, use your senses: sight, smell and hearing.
"Is it clean? Does it smell good?" Falldine said.
Also, notice whether residents are clean and how the staff interacts with them. Do they treat them with respect and kindness?
Vary your visits.
"Visit the place at least twice," said Lue Taff, geriatric care manager at the Senior Source, a Dallas nonprofit. "If you visit on a weekend, you will get an idea of how the place operates without a lot of management staff there. If you visit during a meal, you will see more of the people who actually live there. You will notice if the staff is very helpful."
When you visit, talk with the families of residents to get their insights.
"Talk with family members in the parking lot, because they will give you the real story," Taff said.
Ask whether the facility has active family and resident councils, and speak to members about their impressions of the facility.
"How much authority does your resident council have to make decisions about the future of the community?" Traweek said.
• Understand the costs. Taff said some assisted living communities charge a monthly fee that includes things such as bathing, dressing and dispensing medication, while others charge a base fee and charge extra for "however much care you need." That may include having meals brought to your home or getting assistance to get to the dining room.
Determine which fee structure best fits your needs and budget.
You should also ask: How does the community decide on increases in monthly fees? Does it cap yearly increases?
"In independent living, is it possible to purchase additional services from an agency or program that offers help with things like getting to the dining room, helping with medications or doing extra laundry and housekeeping?" Taff said. "What are those fees?"
It's also important to know if there is an entrance fee to a community. This may also be known as a "buy-in" and can be substantial. Is the fee refunded after you move out or die? How long will your estate have to wait before getting the money back?
"Regardless of how much money you have, entrance fees aren't cheap," Traweek said. "It's in your best interest to understand how a community will process your refund when the time comes."
• Ask about health care. Be sure to inquire about how the senior living community will handle your loved one's medical needs.
"What hospital will you go to if they call 911?" Taff said. "It will probably be the hospital that is closest to the facility."
Are your loved one's doctors and hospitals within the range of the senior community's transportation services?
The bottom line is to trust your instincts when deciding on a place for your family member. And never move your loved one into a place that makes you uneasy or doesn't feel safe.

For the third time, the Milwaukee Common Council licenses committee has denied a liquor license for a strip club downtown.
The owners of Silk most recently petitioned to take over a vacant night club on Old World Third Street.
After hearing public comment, the licensing committee voted 5-0 to deny Silk's owner a license.
The club's owner, John Ferraro, told 12 News he believes its because of the type of entertainment his club provides and defended his other establishments.
"We've been running three gentlemen's clubs across Wisconsin for nine years now with no problems at all," said Ferraro.
Alderman Bob Bauman said the public feedback was too convincing.
"Their sentiments were very strong, very powerful, and after all, that's who we represent," Bauman said.
The issue will go before the full council June 12.

american apparell leggings
monki shirt (mines a XS for reference, cheers monki sizing!)
topshop necklace
topshop bag
topshop boots (cheaper dupes)
black tied bracelets
bourjois 1 seconde nail polish in turquoise block
monki phone case
ebay sunglasses
Hahah the way the light has hit me in these photos it looks like I have some sort of blonde halo. Yay for having the worlds frizziest straight hair. NAWT. In this outfit I paired my favourite American Apparell leggings with a new shirt that I got from Monki. It's super lightweight and sheer and perfect for the hotter weather. I threw on my Topshop Aleggera's which have really served me well but could do with being re-heeled soon (or maybe I'll buy some sweet cheap dupes, I've had my eye on the studded ones for godvknows how long!). I really like this look, although it's probably not as summer as it could/should be! I also want to point out the awesomeness of my new phone cover. LOOK AT DAT FACE. It's perfect. Its the face I make whenever Im in public without having to make the "please dont even talk to me let alone make eye contact. YAY for being a dick around people IRL.
I see Monki is the latest shop to be gobbled up by the ASOS machine as it can now be nought from their website. I've noticed they've also started stocking a selection of Glamorous, Tatty Devine and Primark. Yes kids you read that right, Primark is now online, well sort of. It's only a selection but it is nicely selected peices without having to rummage through the crap. Especially for my international readers who crave the brand but they are still stuck in the past and don't have an online shop! It's nice to have loads of brands in one place, and especially get those hard to find Primark peices online. I bought this dress last week and low and behold it's actually online to purchase! Wallets at the ready!

The thing is, $relative has never used a CLI before; $relative has previously only used Microsoft Windows and has never touched its command prompt. Although I'm continually becoming more comfortable with the CLI, I still retain a certain fondness, familiarity, and comfort with GUIs, as I was bred on Microsoft Windows as well until I was told about Linux Mint over two years ago. Yet, as I was giving tech support to $relative over an online chat, I felt far more comfortable giving CLI tech support, and I find this sort of ironic, if nothing else.
Why? Both I and $relative, as I said earlier, are far more comfortable with GUIs. Yet if I wanted to give tech support for GUIs, I'd need to know stuff like exactly what applications to use, exactly what the menu and button structures are like, and exactly what errors would commonly come up. With a CLI, I'd just ask $relative to copy the commands I type into the chat box verbatim into the terminal, and copy back any errors output. And despite having never used a terminal before, $relative did it all with ease, and it was all working perfectly. And that's what's great about Linux now; it's easy, flexible, and extraordinarily powerful all in one, and users now don't have to deal with that immense power if they really don't want to.

The Army is getting into the mobile apps game, with the launch of a prototype Army Software Marketplace, which at the moment has 12 mobile training applications for use on personal phones or tablets.
"The Apps Marketplace is at the center of Army efforts to radically reduce the time to deliver applications across the force," Lt. Gen. Susan Lawrence, chief information officer/G-6, said in an Army announcement.
The goal of the program is to develop a submission and approval processes that will allow service members, organizations and third-party developers to submit apps for Army-wide distribution, Lawrence said. The program will use agile development practices, with the aim of developing and delivering apps quickly.
The 12 apps on the site, approved for use within the Army's Common Operating Environment and written for iOS devices, were developed at Army training schools as part of the Connecting Soldiers to Digital Apps (CSDA) initiative, which will continue to submit apps.
App currently available in clued The Soldiers Blue Book, Army Values, Army Social Media Handbook and Developing a Performance Work Statement.

This park has been impacted by recent severe weather events in Queensland. Please check park alerts for the latest information on access, closures and conditions.
The Binna Burra section of the World Heritage-listed Lamington National Park is renowned for diverse vegetation, rugged terrain and a bird's eye view of the Gold Coast and hinterland.
Trek 18.2 kilometres along the Mount Hobwee Circuit which is reached five and a half kilometres along the Border Track. Later pass through Nothofagus Gondwana forest often lined in 'beech orange' fungus and only found in Australia and South America.
Spot the track on the left leading 1163 metres to the summit of Mount Hobwee, Wagawn and Araucaria lookouts. Wagawn boasts uninterrupted views of Springbrook, the Tweed Valley and Mount Warning while nearby Araucaria lookout is lined in Helmholtzia lilies and named after the hoop pine communities representative of the Jurassic Age - the age of the conifers about 180 million years ago.
The circuit re-joins the Border Track for the return trek to the Binna Burra car park.
|8 Hours
|18.2 Kilometres
After leaving the Border Track 5.4 kilometres from Binna Burra, this circuit winds through rainforest to the summit of Mount Hobwee (1163 metres). Much of the forest near the summit was disturbed by a severe storm in 1983.
The Nothofagus forest and associated communities found here and Mount Merino provide strong evidence of the Gondwana connection. The 'beech orange', a species of fungus, occurs only on Nothofagus species found in Australia and South America.
The circuit rejoins the Border Track for the return to the Binna Burra car park.
Please see the Queensland National Parks, Recreation, Sport and Racing web site for detailed maps and the latest park information, including opening hours and safety messages. When you are in the park, make sure you refer to signs at the start of the track for more information.

Hi Z, whatever the explanation of American slowing may be, your own transformation through the exertion of long distance running resonates and makes us all think about what we are doing in our lives and why. And that is very important.
The search engine shows that this study has received wide news coverage and some pushback. The pushback mainly involves offering morally flattering explanations, such as more less-fit people are running and that is morally good. Here is one from npr:
http://www.npr.org/sections/13.7/2017/0 ... ing-slower
As for me, I run only for fun and mostly intervals, not for any moral reason. I admire the fast marathon runners including the nonprofessional runners like you Z, for the sake of beauty not goodness. I love the gracefulness of the fast runners, and wish I could be so graceful in my movements. I know hikers that are also beautiful to see in this way.
I wish Americans could increase our pace. It would be beautiful to behold.

Southern change: Scottsville takes center stage
Peering through our gastronomic goggles last month, Dish spotted a strange glow in the southern sky. A purplish haze hovered over the ground approximately 20 miles down Route 20 South, by our rough estimation. Was it some sort of heavenly event? A ghostly apparition? No it was simply the energy generated by all the goings on in the Scottsville restaurant world.
First up: Memory Lane Diner. Located on Valley Street, Scottsville's main drag, Memory Lane is actually a reincarnation of Whole Lotta Shakin', a '50s diner owned by Donna Turner. Turner sold the business three years ago to spend more time with her young daughter. The new owners renamed it Blast From the Past but kept the '50s diner theme. Things didn't work out Blast from the Past closed this summer– and last month Turner stepped back in to reopen the place with its third name and current name, Memory Lane.
Though it's still a '50s diner, Turner says there have been some slight changes in decorating: the tables and stools are now black. Turner offers hamburgers, milkshakes, banana splits, grilled cheese sandwiches, and Philly cheese steaks, as well as other classic diner fare. Not exactly a dieter's dream, but who count calories at a diner?
Next stop: Jimmy's on the James. When Jimmy's closed for renovations back in early September, a few locals feared the worst: that Jimmy's would meet the same fate as its predecessor, The River Rat. But Jimmy's is faring fine, thank you, says head chef Chad Ervin, a chef for three years at Oxo restaurant, who started at Jimmy's last March.
Ervin says changes include the addition of a bar and a new entryway to "improve the flow" of the space. The menu has also undergone some gentle adjustment: "It's a little bit cheaper and has more variety," Ervin says. More cuts of steak and the addition of more seafood dishes will make Jimmy's "more accessible to a broader clientele," Ervin hopes.
Now for some news with teeth. It's been more than a year since we said farewell to Shady Grove Pizza, but our last hopes for a new restaurant to take its place seem to have been dashed. Our Scottsville sources report that the dentist next door has consumed the Shady Grove space, so except for a few tasty fluoride drops, no eating will be taking place in that building from now on.
Closer to home
What's going on at Rapture? Remember the dance club Rapture co-owners Mike Rodi and Andrew Vaughan have been planning for the past year? Well, despite lengthy delays on the project, it's still a go.
Vaughan, who also owns Orbit Billiards on the Corner, says the space may or may not be given its own name, since it will be a part of Rapture. And as for an opening date, Vaughan says it would be premature to offer one up.
When we checked in earlier this week, Vaughan and Rodi were meeting with architects on the project.
"There have been some hold-ups," says Vaughan, "but we're definitely moving ahead."

Cityscape: Clifford Building
Although J. Riely Gordon (1863-1937) was not born here, San Antonio certainly can claim the prominent architect as its own. The Gordon family moved here from Virginia in 1874, and his extensive nationwide résumé begins as a wunderkind in the Alamo City.
The Clifford Building is an example of Gordon's contribution. It was known as the Riverside Building when it opened along the San Antonio River in 1891. In the late-'70s, restaurateur Rick Grinnan purchased the building, and a few years later named it after the building's first occupant, local attorney Charles H. Clifford.
As noted by San Antonio Express-News history columnist Paula Allen in her book "San Antonio: Then and Now," the Clifford is unique in that it's turretlike façade actually faces the San Antonio River, while other riverside buildings face the street.
River Walk architect Robert Hugman, whose name is emblazoned on the Clifford's curved balcony, had an office on the ground floor.
Cityscape is a weekly look at a building or place that makes San Antonio distinct. Comments or suggestions are welcomed at email@example.com.

When Access Consciousness first began in 1990, "The Bars" was all that was offered. To this day it remains the foundation of Access Consciousness.
Access Bars has assisted thousands of people to change many aspects of their lives. People report better health, ease of sleep, weight loss, better sex and relationships, relief from anxiety, less stress and so much more!
During an Access Bars session, a trained practitioner lightly touches 32 points on your head which dissipates the electromagnetic charge that gets locked in our brains by the thoughts, feelings, and emotions that we have stored over lifetimes. Imagine if someone could press a button and mute that voice in your head that tells you that you're not good enough or that you can't accomplish what you dream about. That "voice" comes from those electromagnetic charges that keep us from believing we can have the life we've always known is possible.
This is what Access Bars will begin to unlock… the space of being YOU!
Access Bars are the foundation on which Access Consciousness is built. Getting your Bars run can easily change EVERYTHING in your life that you've been wanting to change. Could it be that easy? Click above to find out!
Access Bars classes have grown tremendously since being introduced to the world in 1990. Classes are being held all over the world, in person and online. Find out more about what you can expect in a class and how to find one near you!

Mark Twain
DateNovember 2001
Other Media
This companion site to Ken Burns' film tells the story of Mark Twain through the metaphor of one of his more famous inventions: a self-pasting scrapbook.
Ernest Hemingway said, "All of American literature began with Huck Finn." This project focuses on the man that inspired some of the greatest American fiction-writing of this century: Mark Twain. Born in the year of Halley's comet in 1835, and exiting the earth with it in 1910, Twain's life was always at the forefront of cultural change, whether it was dealing with race in American culture, riverboat piloting, traveling the world on lecture circuits, or patenting his many inventions. This site serves as a companion to the documentary film by Ken Burns/Florentine Films and is hosted on PBS Online. In addition to learning about the life of Twain via the Scrapbook, visitors can go behind-the-scenes in the making of the film, find related classroom activities, and link to more writings and resources. Inspired by Twain's invention, the interactive scrapbook tells Twain's life story through a collection of texts, photos, illustrations, and clippings from his day, plus audio and video clips from the film. The site design is both simple and playful, using motifs and fonts inspired by Twain's books and illustrations from his time period. The Scrapbook section uses Twain's scrapbook design as the basis for the background. The images, quotes, and icons are purposefully arranged as one would arrange a scrapbook: thematically and by time and place.

Padma Shri came as pleasant surprise: SrideviJan 28, 2013 Subhash K. Jha
Mumbai, Jan 28 (IANS) Bollywood diva Sridevi, who lately made a comeback to acting after 16 years of domesticity with "English Vinglish", says "acknowledgement" and "recognition from authoritative quarters are important to every artiste".
"It's my good fortune that people still love me and want me on screen. The Padma Shri came as a very pleasant surprise. I am deeply honoured," said Sridevi.
"I don't know what I did to deserve it. But I must have done something right to be honoured by our government," added the actress, who after creating magic on the silver screen in the 1980s and 1990s tied the knot with producer Boney Kapoor in 1996 and quit movies.
There had been a profound sense of dismay when earlier during the month Sridevi seemed to have missed out on the popular awards for her stellar performance in "English Vinglish".
But the actress of timeless movies like "Sadma", "Lamhe" and "Chandni" said: "At this stage in my life and career, I don't hanker for any awards. But the Padma Shri is special. It shows that the government has recognised my work, and that feels good. Acknowledgement and recognition from authoritative quarters are important to every artiste."
Though Sri, 49, is not going to go out of her way to seek acting assignments at this stage, she is still enthusiastic about her career.
"I started young when I was 6. But I don't feel I've been acting for so many years. I still approach every film and role like it's my first. Though 'English Vinglish' was my director Gauri Shinde's debut film, I felt like a newcomer as much as she did.
"It is very important for an artiste to be excited about her work in every phase of her career. If a tiredness seeps into one's attitude it will show in the quality of one's work Somewhere I think my honesty towards my word is being acknowledged by the Padma Shri. That I've managed to go so far in my life is all due to the support of my fans and well-wishers and my husband Boney."
The actress, who did her first film as child artiste in 1967, is a mother to two daughters one of whom, the elder Jhanvi is said to be poised for a movie career.
The proud and protective mother laughs off these rumours.
"Jhanvi is just 16. She needs time to see the world and understand herself and her interests. At the moment, the two of us are busy together sharing a girl camaraderie. We're friends before being mother and daughter.
"We go out shopping together for clothes. We go to movies together. It's nice to be re-discovering my own teens through my daughter. I never had a chance to do all the normal girlie things. I was busy working."
Sridevi recently did a magazine cover with both her daughters Jhanvi and Khushi.
"It was great fun. But it doesn't mean anything more. It certainly doesn't signal my elder daughter's film career. Like I said, she's too young to be thinking of career. Let her have fun."
Sridevi, whose career as Hindi film heroine took off with a bang in 1983 with the potboiler "Himmatwala", is open to more acting offers.
"But it has to be something that appeals to me as an actress, like 'English Vinglish'. At this juncture of my life, I am not hankering to face the camera. I've done every kind of role. It's the real-life mom's role that I enjoy the most," she said.

It's been a sad, sad week in the world of golf. Last Saturday, May 7, we learned about the passing of an absolute legend -- Spain's Severiano Ballesteros -- who succumbed to his long battle with a brain tumor.
Without question, Seve was the most creative player to ever play the game. Simply put, he made the impossible possible. There was no shot that intimidated Seve. Surrounded by trees with seemingly no way out, Seve would just about always find the smallest window to the green and execute the shot to get there. He was a magician, the likes of which golf had never before seen.
Seve's enthusiasm for the game was immense and intense. Long before the Tiger Woods fistpump, Seve excited the crowds with his passion, which he never tried to hide. For better or worse, people either loved Seve or had a strong dislike for him. And those that disliked Seve? They were likely the men scratching their heads at the end of a tournament wondering how the hell they just lost to a guy who spent most of the day playing approach shots from the woods.
Seve was one of a kind and an incredible champion.
All told, he had 91 professional victories, including 50 on the European Tour (first all time in that category), nine on the PGA Tour and a remarkable five majors (1979, '84 and '88 Open Championships; 1980 and '83 Masters).
Few can forget when Seve won his first Open Championship in 1979 at Royal Lytham & St. Annes with a closing 70, a round in which he famously hit his tee shot into a parking lot on the 16th hole yet still made a birdie.
Individually, Seve was amazing. As a teammate in the Ryder Cup? He was nearly unbeatable.
Along with fellow Spaniard Jose Maria Olazabal, the pair had an unthinkable 11-2-2 record in the Ryder Cup, making them the most successful partnership in the history of the matches and earning them the nickname, "The Spanish Armada."
All told, Seve scored 22 1/2 points in 37 matches against the United States and was the winning captain at the 1997 Ryder Cup at Valderrama Golf Club in Sotogrande, Spain, which was the first Ryder Cup ever held in continental Europe -- fittingly on Seve's homeland.
That old phrase, "gone but not forgotten," has never been more true than in the case of Seve Ballesteros.
With that, we asked our PGA.com Facebook fans this week to tell us: What will be your favorite memory of Seve Ballesteros?
Here are the top 9 answers we received from you:
1. The parking lot shot at Royal Lytham & St. Annes to help sew up his first major championship in the 1979 Open Championship.
Facebook fan quote:
"Hitting out of the parking lot and birdied the hole. Something most golfers can relate too, a shot way out of the fairway. His reaction was priceless." -- John Davis
2. Seve's, "never give in," attitude toward each and every shot.
Facebook fan quote:
"Two memories that stick with me -- we were following Seve at the old Buick in Westchester C.C. We watched Faldo whine about them raking the stones to the back of the bunkers, but Seve found himself in the middle of the Westchester wilderness. He spent minutes darting here and there to find an opening. Everyone thought he was mad. He approached the ball with such conviction, we knew he was going to make the shot. It had to be the smallest window through the trees and he hit it onto the green. He didn't win, but it showed he never thought he was out of it." -- Dave Jones
3. A shot from his knees, through trees -- with a 5-wood, no less -- on the sixth hole of the Open de France in 1997.
Facebook fan quote:
"His shot on his knees does it for me. Seve was before my time as a golfer, but I will never forget his highlight reel! Waking up on Saturday morning was a very sad moment in my golf career and I thought about playing for him in my Saturday medal. I found myself behind a tree on the fourth and played a shot only Seve would play. I hit the tree when he would hit the green and finished second. RIP Seve, Europe will miss you, I'll miss you, but you'll forever be in our hearts." -- Niall Balloch
4. Some questioned Seve's shot selection, but not this fan.
Facebook fan quote:
"I'm a PGA Professional and I had volunteered to be a forecaddie at the '95 PGA Championship at Riviera CC in Los Angeles. On the hole I was working, Seve hit a tee shot that landed in the trees left of the fairway. I got over the ball before the gallery could get too close, and I stayed over it until Seve arrived. While we were all waiting, I heard the spectators all talking about which way they thought Seve would play the ball to advance it. Most agreed that he would go right of the trees and get the ball back in the fairway, only being able to advance it maybe 40 yards. Right before he arrived, I turned to the people talking and very confidently said, 'I disagree. He's going through the opening in the tree right towards the flag.' The opening was only about 4 feet in diameter, but it was right in line with tbe flag. Many people told me they thought I was crazy. Seve and his brother arrived and they debated in Spanish. After that brief, 'conversation,' Seve grabbed an iron, lined up straight at the tree and swung. He left himself a 5-foot birdie putt! Best shot I ever saw in person, and I called it. He is deeply missed." -- Gary Gentile
5. The respect he commanded from spectators and, more importantly, his fellow competitors.
Facebook fan quote:
"It's not the swing, the victories or even the swagger. It was the way that other players and the crowds looked at him -- pure respect and love. RIP Seve. Well played." -- David Wayne Baugus
6. His Ryder Cup captaincy at Valderrama Golf Club in 1997.
Facebook fan quote:
"Valderrama '97. Captaining in his homeland. Seve was everywhere encouraging, advising and inspiring. As the rain fell, Seve lifted that famous trophy. I was there, I was drenched, and I shall never forget. RIP, Great man." -- Peter Bleksley
7. His imagination and execution of shot that many couldn't even dream of hitting, let alone attempting.
Facebook fan quote:
"Simply that he imagined shots that would occur to very few golfers (especially in a professional tournament). Then he would actually pull them off. Golf is a whole lot less imaginative with his passing." -- David Presley
8. Seve's charisma.
Facebook fan quote:
"The emotion he showed whenever he won. Every win was like winning for the first time for Seve." -- Brian Uhlmann
9. A memorable encounter.
Facebook fan quote:
"I was a member of the media covering the Greensboro PGA tourney around 1980. A phone call came in from a journalist in Spain who wanted to interview Seve. He didn't speak English and no one could understand him. I'm able to speak a little Spanish so I gave it a shot. I told the journalist Seve was on the course, but I would give him a message to return the call. Not confident about my Spanish, I wrote two notes. One in Spanish and one in English, although Seve's English was only marginally better then my Spanish. I taped them to his locker. After his round I checked with him to see if he understood the notes. He was incredibly warm and friendly and assured me that my Spanish note was good enough that he understood it perfectly. He seemed genuinely touched that I had tried to communicate in his language and thanked me profusely for my time and effort. He was already an international phenom by then and could easily have brushed me off with little more than a nod. Instead he treated me as an equal and showed me great respect. He was a true gentleman, as nice off the course as he was a fierce competitor in the fairway. This interaction had a big impact on me and will always be my best memory of this great ambassador." -- Terry Williams

Want to set up a book signing?If anyone would like to try and set up a signing, reading, or lecture from/with Kelly Varesio regarding Insperatus, contact her at firstname.lastname@example.com. She's already been a guest speaker as part of Woodstown High School's Creative Writing classes, as well as high school career fairs. She is looking and very open to not only promote Insperatus, but to also talk to others like herself about following their dreams, whether it be in writing or other areas of life.
"Dear Kelly…...I picked up Insperatus at the Wizard World convention in Philadelphia. I just finished it tonight, and I wanted to just tell you how happy I was with it and really hope you continue to expand on this world.I thought it was a great story from start to finish. When Traith turned Rein I must say I wasn't expecting that, but was pleased. And the epilouge was intriguing...I would love to know how Carden got back to Romania, how did he survive the ship. Hopefully that will be material for a sequel! Great Book! I will be looking for more!" --Cyndi
What People Are Saying"This book is sooooooooo amazing and well put together and a great plot and great romance...And did I mention amazing? I did? Oh well, it's sooo amazing, it needs to be repeated!!! -Caitlyn, reader." "SERIOUSLY! EVERYONE NEEDS TO READ THIS BOOK! I LOVED IT!!!!!!!"
"I never thought I would be able to read a book just for the sake of reading a book. I was always too distracted or busy doing something else. I finished this book in 6 days, and I loved it. :) Thanks Kelly. :)"
"Better than Twilight!"
"The romance of Titanic, Mysticism of Twilight, and Action of Harry Potter."
"Insperatus doesn't fit a mold of any kind. It overflows and trickles past this and that, grabbing pieces here and there. It truely keeps you on the edge of your seat. I can't wait for the second one!"
"From beginning to end it kept me wanting to know what was going to happen next. I found it difficult to put down for exactly the same reason. People who have seen me reading it I have told they should read it too."

If a kid you look after has a health problem, you might be more focused on what could go wrong instead of having fun. That doesn't make for the best babysitting experience — for you or the child.
But you can avoid a lot of the worry by learning about the child's health condition, asking the right questions, and preparing for your time together. Here are some tips and ideas to get you started.
Children with asthma can have flare-ups (also sometimes called "asthma attacks"). This happens when the muscles around the tiny airways tighten, making it hard to breathe. The things that cause asthma flare-ups are known as triggers, and they can be anything from animals to being around people who smoke.
Ask parents:
Activities and play: Exercise can be a common trigger for asthma. Some kids with asthma aren't affected by running around and being active. But for others, a fast-paced game of tag might set off their symptoms. If you're babysitting a kid with asthma, ask parents to suggest activities.
Signs of trouble: If a child coughs a lot or complains of tightness or pain in the chest, it may be an early warning sign of an asthma flare-up.
Diabetes means there are high sugar levels in the blood. People with diabetes monitor their blood sugar levels to avoid dangerous highs and lows. Kids who develop diabetes usually need insulin to keep their sugar levels in the normal range.
Because diabetes is complicated to manage, it's a good idea to visit with the family before you babysit to learn how to best care for the child. Take notes so you don't forget anything.
Activities and play: Children with diabetes can do the same activities as other kids. But if the activity is strenuous, like a basketball game, talk to the parents beforehand about whether the child's medication or food should be adjusted.
Signs of trouble: Low blood sugar levels can put a child at risk of fainting or having a seizure — although these things are rare, it's good to be aware of them. If a child complains of being thirsty often or pees a lot, or if the child feels dizzy or acts confused, it could be a sign that blood sugar is too high. If you start noticing these things, call the child's parents right away.
Kids can be allergic to a lot of things, including foods, pets, insect stings, or pollen. Some allergic reactions (like to foods or insect stings) can be life-threatening — although it's rare for a reaction like that to happen. Still, it helps to know in advance what to avoid and what to do if a kid has a serious reaction.
Activities and play: Ask the parents if you should avoid certain places because of the child's allergy triggers. For example, if a child with a pet allergy wants to play at a friend's house but there's a cat there, find out what to do. Maybe it's OK to be at the friend's house as long as the kids play outdoors, or perhaps the parents prefer that the child's friend comes over to their house to play. If a child has seasonal allergies, there might be certain times of year when the parents want their child to do indoor activities.
Signs of trouble: A rare but serious allergic reaction called anaphylaxis can happen quickly. Signs include tightness or swelling in the throat; trouble swallowing and speaking; wheezing, hives, or skin swelling; a fast heartbeat or pulse; and dizziness. If this happens, use an epinephrine auto injector (if the child has one) and call 911 right away.
Sickle cell disease causes abnormally shaped red blood cells. This can lead kids to have certain health problems. Two common ones are periods of pain, usually in the arms, legs, or back (known as "pain crises") or shortness of breath and chest pain (which could be something called "acute chest syndrome"). Sickle cell disease also can cause a child to become pale, weak, and dizzy due to severe anemia.
Activities and play: Cold temperatures can trigger a pain crisis. A kid with sickle cell can still go outside in winter, but should be bundled up and not stay out for too long. If you're going swimming, ask the parents what temperature is too cold for their child. Kids with sickle cell are more likely to have pain crises when they're dehydrated, so make sure they drink water and other non-caffeinated drinks.
Signs of trouble: A child having a pain crisis may complain of pain in the back, arms, or legs. With acute chest syndrome, you might notice that the child is coughing a lot, has chest discomfort, and gets a fever. Fever can be a big problem for kids with sickle cell disease, so call the parents right away if the child seems to have a fever. If the child looks pale and becomes dizzy, call the parents immediately.
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a long-term condition involving brain damage and muscle problems. CP can cause limitations in moving, learning, hearing, seeing, and thinking. Every child with CP is different. Some may only have slight muscle problems. Others may use wheelchairs or walkers to get around. Some kids have no problems with brain function but others have learning problems and delays in their development.
Activities and play: Entertaining a child who has CP depends on the child's mobility and how much he or she is able to understand. Ask the parents to suggest activities for your time with their child. You can start with simple puzzles or coloring and plan other things to do as you get to know the child better.
Signs of trouble: Some kids with CP are at risk of seizures, so ask parents if this could be a problem and what to do. A child with CP may have less muscle control than other kids. Since kids like to push boundaries, some children who use assistive devices (like leg braces) may try to convince you it's OK to go without. This can lead to injury, so be firm — let the child know that when you're in charge, it's your rules!
Once you know what to do, looking after kids with medical needs is just like caring for other children — you have fun while keeping them safe.

By the way shels were whipping boys in the league before Ollie's creative accounting. No reason to believe they would be any different now. Always had a gate when they came but.
Your logic is that 2 gates a year is better for us financially, but we'll have far less to compete with so we won't need as much money to compete.
I know we all have different views on this but I'd much rather beat bohs 3-1 in front of 2000 than beat bray 3-1 in front of 700. Play them shite clubs every week and gates will diminish further. Cant beat a proper derby imo.
Lads.. I think a good aul debate is in order.
I was talking to a few of the lads, Im definitley going on the next trip if there is one! Do we all fly via Copenhagen everyone
if bohs don't get 300 grand by next week are they fucked and do we get europe?
I hate Derry almost but not as much as I hate Bohs, Rovers etc..
Was thinking that Bohs going down and us getting Europe was all great, but then looking at the bigger picture, with the way the economy is right now, is the league sustainable atall? Asking myself how long is this going to last right now..
One love *** One club
Drama queen stuff
The league's sustainable as long as people spend what they have. its that fucking simple. its not like the league just arrived in the last 15 years
How is it drama queen stuff? Maybe misconstrued what I meant by "lasting" is how many more clubs are going to buckle, we've already seen the loss of a few clubs, Bohs looking like the next ones to go, and possibly Fingal to follow suit. Has any club made a profit this season? Who is covering these operating costs and are they going to continue to do so?
Bad management and financing is ruining this league, but is it really drama queen stuff to worry about its future?
One love *** One club
Yes. Clubs lose money all the time. The difference is usally made up by supporters or directors
As i said, all clubs have to do is limit their spending to what they bring in. if they do, they'll survive forever.
The league's been going since the frmation of the state. It has survived losing clubs in the past, and will survive losing clubs in the future.
Most of the stuff we are seeing over the last few years is clubs not realising the FAI are playing hard ball and the old ways are dead. The type of stuff shels and Bohs got involved in would have NEVER seen them relegated under the old system. They would have just rumbled on regardless. We are still at the breaking eggs to make the omelette stage on this.
Just look at the amount of clubs in England and Italy playing chicken in the traffic. Its the nature of football tbh.

Bohs could easily get under the salary cap. It only factors in wages and income. It doesn't even consider that clubs have other outgoings.
For some reason I always seem to be an FAI apologist on here but I have to say they are very good to me in my gig at our club. I have constant access to premiership level qualified football people if I need it so I'm probably a little blinkered.
Think Bohs tried to factor in winnings but FAI rejected budget projections and they had to re submit without such projections. Maybe Dodge can clarify this. Vaguely remener something about it around license time
WWS - Remembered Always
the fai allowed then to use the prize money from finishing last in the league in their projections. Bohs wanted to use the money from finishing top..laughable really

The Reward of Return
Sympathetic to the couple's financial struggles, all the neighbors gave their written consent. Just before the nursery was to open one of the neighbors withdrew his consent. The noise from the nursery, he claimed, might be detrimental to his wife who suffered from high blood pressure. To aggravate the situation he had three sons who had strayed from being observant and he was afraid that his efforts to bring them back would be harmed by their seeing their mother suffer because of observant Jews.
The shocked young husband went to a local rabbi who informed him that since the reluctant neighbor had given his consent it constituted a vow on which he could not renege. Upon hearing this ruling the neighbor insisted on personally speaking to the rabbi who repeated to him that he must stick to his consent. "But," added the rabbi as he held out a bottle of wine, "if you allow the nursery to function you will merit to pour wine from this bottle at the weddings of your three sons who will have returned to the fold!"
The consent was renewed, the nursery opened, and there were soon three weddings of three returned sons.

Fluzone High-Dose is an injected flu vaccine formulated for people age 65 years and older. Like other flu vaccines, Fluzone High-Dose is made up of the three flu strains most likely to cause the flu during the upcoming season. The high-dose vaccine, however, contains four times as much flu virus antigen — the part of the vaccine that stimulates the immune system — as regular Fluzone and other standard flu vaccines.
In response to a regular flu shot, older people produce 50 to 75 percent fewer antibodies, which protect against the vaccine antigens, than do younger adults.
Evidence that a high-dose flu vaccine can compensate for this difference originally comes from studies that found higher post-vaccine antibody levels in older adults who received high-dose flu vaccines than in those who received standard flu vaccines.
In addition, one study found almost 25 percent fewer cases of proven influenza in adults age 65 and older who took the high-dose vaccine compared with those who took the standard-dose vaccine.
In the largest of three clinical studies comparing high-dose and standard-dose flu vaccines, those who received the high-dose vaccine were more likely to develop side effects, such as a fever and soreness at the injection site, during the week after vaccination.
The risks of flu complications are highest for people age 65 years and older, so protecting this group is particularly important. The Food and Drug Administration accelerated its approval of Fluzone High-Dose on the condition that studies will continue to evaluate the new vaccine's effect on seasonal flu outcomes, such as cases of flu and flu complications, in older adults. If, over the next few years, Fluzone High-Dose turns out to be superior to the regular flu vaccine by these measures, the high-dose vaccine may become the vaccine of choice for older adults.

NEW YORK: Australian billionaire Clive Palmer revealed his grand design plans to build a modern-day replica of the doomed Titanic, confirming the cruise liner would make its maiden voyage in 2016.
At a press conference in New York on Tuesday, and following a rendition of Celine Dion's My Heart Will Go On, Mr Palmer told the world's media construction of the 835-cabin ship would begin in China later this year.
The billionaire, who used the honorific "Professor", awarded by Bond University in 2008, for the announcement, said 40,000 people had already registered for tickets on the first voyage, which will retrace the fateful 1912 trip from Southampton to New York, in which more than 1500 passengers and crew died.
Among those interested were 16 who were willing to pay between $750,000 and $1 million for a spot.
Refusing to divulge the cost of Titanic II ("I have enough money to pay for it, so that's all that really matters"), the 58-year-old said it was not about money but recreating the romance and memories of a bygone era – minus the iceberg.
Passengers aboard the 10-deck ship will be provided with 1912-style outfits to wear during their holiday and there will be no phone or television – and he was debating about internet access.
Titanic II will have Turkish baths, a smoking room, casino, theatre and hospital. Key differences to the original include a high-tech engine, airconditioning and a safety deck with more lifeboats (including 18 covered motorised lifeboats).
As with the original, there would be first, second and third classes and they would not be allowed to mingle. Mr Palmer said he would be travelling third class, dressed in a wig and 1912 garb.
"I like Irish stew and potatoes … . I'm looking forward to banging the drums, playing the fiddle and getting dizzy as I twirl around like Leonardo did in the movie," Mr Palmer said, referring to the 1997 blockbuster, which starred Leonardo DiCaprio.
At the press conference, Mr Palmer provided Helen Benziger, of Wyoming, whose great-grandmother survived the 1912 disaster, the chance to speak. She said she was "thrilled" about the project "because the professor has assured me he will honour those passengers that perished and survived".
Mr Palmer said Titanic II would be the safest cruise ship in the world but, when asked if it would be unsinkable, he said: "It's very cavalier to say that. I think people have said that in the past and lived to regret it."

text: Monifa means 'I am lucky' in Nigerian. She was born in the early hours of October 15 to first-time mother, 'Petre' and father 'Timmy'. However after a difficult breach birth, the Zoo's dedicated keepers made the decision to intervene and hand-raise the precious female calf. Keeper, Renae Zammit, said: "We had hoped that Petre would be able to raise the calf, but after birthing complications the new arrival struggled in the first 24 hours to stand and suckle. With only one other breeding pair of Pygmy Hippos in the Australasian region every precaution was taken to give it the best chance of survival." Renae and fellow keeper, Tracey Roberts, have literally moved into the Zoo to care for Monifa in alternate 24 hour shifts, sleeping at the Taronga Wildlife Hospital in order to feed and tend to the youngster's every need. "Although it is a massive undertaking, it is definitely a labour of love. She is quite an unusual looking baby, she almost doesn't look real but after months of planning for this birth, it was love at first sight," said Renae. Currently the calf is having six daily feeds of a substitute milk formula, however such is the trust developed between the keepers and the animals in their care, Renae was able to initially milk Petra's colostorum, a pre-milk developed by the mother which is packed with antibodies and important nutrients that boosts natural immunity. "At first it was a battle to get Monifa to recognise the artificial teat, but it is now thriving, drinks readily from a little bowl and has nearly doubled its birth weight. The infant is such an inquisitive little thing and loves bath time; she even turns somersaults in the warm water. At the moment the youngster's life consists of feeding and sleeping. She has also just graduated from the hospital, moving into the Hippo dens full-time so she is able to smell and hear the Hippo parents. "said Renae. The youngster will be weaned at four to six months of age. Being solitary animals, when older the little female will time share the exhibit with the adult hippos but live in a separate den complete with misting machines to keep her skin hydrated. Zookeeping colleagues at Henry Doorley Zoo, America, named the baby. Their Pygmy Hippo born earlier this year was named 'Zammit' after Renae worked alongside their keepers during the final stages of the zoo's Pygmy Hippo pregnancy and the subsequent birth of a male calf. Monifa is important to the regional population of eight Pygmy Hippos. Foot and Mouth Disease in European countries has restricted the importation of hoofed species making every birth significant for the local gene pool. As Pygmy Hippos are solitary nocturnal forest dwelling creatures, little is known about them in the wild. The majority of research recorded about the species has been learned from those cared for in Zoos. The survival of the species in Zoos is more assured than in the wild: the World Conservation Union estimates that there are fewer than 3,000 Pygmy Hippos remaining in the wild. Pygmy Hippos are primarily threatened by loss of habitat, as forests are logged and converted to farm land, and are also vulnerable to poaching, hunting, natural predators and war.
