'InDiMa' is based upon a three-phase process:
THE INNOVATIVE 'InDiMa' PATIENT-SUPPORT
(1) Analysis and insight alone does not help; support for an addictive eating disorder is needed
(1) Unconditioned acceptance, empowerment and enabling create the basis for success
|The 'Medical Team' is analyzing the bio-medical situation of the Patient, gives a wise advice, warns and is prescribing medication:
|The Doctor and the Diabetes Team show unconditioned acceptance, are empowering and enabling you as Patient to cope with your diabetes through Individualized Self-Care and Individualized support from Partner, Family Group:
|…'but that alone does not help in most of the cases (only 10% are able to put the advice into practice)' …
|…'the unconditioned acceptance creates trust, the Doctor and the Diabetes Team are empowering you to control the diabetes'…
(2) Rational appeals to a patient with an addictive eating disorder are not helpful
(2) Trust building for cooperative openness of the patient and Individualized Support from Doctor and Diabetes Team are necessary
|For our standard treatment we explain the need for the adaptation of lifestyle and regular self-monitoring:
|For our 'InDiMa' management we are creating a basis of trust. The patient is encouraged to talk openly about the diabetes challenges and cooperate as our partner, supported by the 'InDiMa' Support Program:
|… 'but that is not sufficient for 70% of the patients – at best we achieved control of the core criteria in 30 % of the cases' …
|… 'so the patient can control the diabetes, can reach step by step a better lifestyle adaptation and a successful coping with diabetes' …
(3) No support for a healthy lifestyle and combining this with quality of life
(3) 'InDiMa' helps to adapt to a healthy lifestyle and to combine it with quality of life
|The Medical Team requires a healthy lifestyle and shows risks of unhealthy living:
|The patient will adapt to a healthy lifestyle and will learn to combine it with quality of life:
|… 'that creates anxiety, sometimes even fear – but it does not help in most of the cases: The Medical team cannot offer any help and daily support.'.
|…'that helps against anxiety, creates self-confidence – and with the InDiMa Individualized Action Program you will be successful to cope with your diabetes.'
The traditional diabetes treatment and diabetes management did not take care of the addictive pattern: The patients are feeling hungry. Against this, a 'rational appeal' or a 'motivation' is not helpful. The patient feels incompetent and is losing self-confidence, because he cannot control his 'feeling of hunger' and his addiction. So the answer for a successful diabetes Management needs to be different. The patient needs first unconditioned acceptance. Then he is enabled and empowered. The patient understands to accept his reality: He has a biomedical problem (feeling of hunger). He is 'okay' and is not showing 'a lack of discipline' or even a 'lack of social competence'.

Ola Jordan has become the third contestant to be eliminated from I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!
The former Strictly dancer was voted off the ITV reality show by viewers and follows DJ Danny Baker and Lisa Snowdon, who have already got the boot.
Gasping "Oh my God, Oh my God" as she raced across the rope bridge to be greeted by presenters Ant and Dec, Jordan said she had "loved every minute" of her 17 days in the jungle but that it had been a lot tougher than she thought it would be.
She said: "The toilet, drinking the water that you have to boil, the things you don't see at home. Living on rice and beans, it's hard. You deal with it, but it is hard."
The star's jungle adventures included being covered in thousands of critters in the tomb of Terror Bushtucker Trial and walking the plank more than 300 feet in the air.
"I always loved the show, I'm a big fan, and I always thought, 'I can do this, I can do this', but it's not as easy," said Jordan.
The dancer told Ant and Dec that she had got on well with the other contestants and had really bonded with the women - her "girl squad".
She now wants former Countdown star Carol Vorderman to be crowned Queen of the Jungle.
In the latest instalment of the show, Vorderman and Olympian Sam Quek had to brave dizzying heights after volunteering for the latest trial for the sake of "girl power".
Battling "jelly legs" and vertigo, the duo had to walk back and forth over a narrow plank raised 20 metres in the air in a bid to secure meals for their teammates.
Reeling from the loss of model Snowdon, Vorderman and Quek chose to tackle the Hot Sc-Air Ballooning trial on "a day for girls".
"Whatever you can throw at us, bring it on," said Vorderman, pounding her chest with her fists.
Quek said: "Today is a day for girls. This one is for Lisa!"
However, their success seemed less certain when they arrived at the trial spot and Ant and Dec explained they would each be lifted high off the valley floor in different balloons and would then have to inch across a plank to swap stars. O ne tumble off the plank would mean losing a meal for the jungle camp.
With the clock counting down, Vorderman and Quek were raised in the air before they started to gingerly walk across the perilous plank.
As the platform was raised another few metres, part of it fell away, leaving them with an ever-narrower path to walk.
"I've got my jelly legs back," said a trembling Vorderman.
After making their way back to the safety of their balloons, Vorderman and Quek discovered they had won 10 meals for camp.
"We did it Sam, we smashed it, and the girls are back in town. That was the best thing!" said Vorderman.
"Girl power, so happy, I loved that, but my legs went again like jelly."
It was a good day all around, as the hungry campers also won themselves a lavish treat of chips, crisps and alcohol.
The contestants had to travel on an underground train strewn with rubbish, rotting offal and jungle creatures to find tickets to a special destination.
The tickets then gave the group entry to The Jungle Arms, where they ate hot chips, crisps, nuts and cheese.
Diversity dancer Jordan Banjo said: "People at home will not know how much this means to us. Makes you appreciate it. This was so worth it. I'm buzzing."

(Reuters) – Ask Macy Gray about her net worth, and the Grammy-winning R&B singer and songwriter is not sure – though she is perfectly willing to help out with a little online research. She stops the interview to trawl celebritynetworth.com, where she plugs her name into a search engine and pulls up a number. A very large number.
"Wow!" exclaims Gray, 45, an Ohio native who calls Los Angeles home. "It says here I'm worth $38 million. But I don't know where they got that figure from, because I don't even know how to figure that out. But if it's right, I'd go cash that in right now and go shopping."
Gray debuted with the multiplatinum album "Oh How Life Is" in 1999, and musical stardom also translated into movie appearances in "Spider-Man" and "For Colored Girls." But her life as a star has not been perfect. Gray has weathered heartbreak (her husband, Tracy Hinds, left while she was pregnant with their third child, and substance abuse problems came to a head around the time she released 2003's "The Trouble With Being Myself.")
Gray says the partying years are behind her, though she loves gambling and played on the Bravo cable network's "Celebrity Poker Showdown" in 2006, capturing third place in her tournament.
While Gray takes to games of chance for fun, she is frank about her lack of prowess at picking stocks. Gray has learned what works for her financially, and sticks with it. She is a saver, and likes to put money aside so that it is not accessible to her.
With her new album, a reinterpretation of Stevie Wonder's "Talking Book," due October 30, Gray took time out to discuss the fine points of her financial life.
Q: How do you invest your funds?
A: I was never good at the whole stock thing so I quit a long time ago – before the crash. The thing that I did, and worked out well for me, is that my money goes straight to an account that I can't get to, unless emergency situations come up.
Q: How about investments in other areas of your life, like real estate?
A: I own three properties in Canton, Ohio, because that's where I'm from: one commercial property and two homes. I also have some money in jewelry; I have a lot of jewelry.
Q: You have three kids. How do you set aside money for them?
A: Since the beginning, I've given a percentage into my kids' accounts – just like I pay my manager or my agent. It's not so much a trust fund as a money market account. They've been accumulating money for a long time, and it's set up so I can't get at it. They actually have a lot more money than I do! My daughter just went to college in the fall, and all that was paid for through that account. My kids get so much when they are 18, and so much when they are 21. My accountant set it up very nicely. My kids get more money if they stay in school, so that's good too.
Q: Where do you like to give back?
A: My biggest thing is that I like to help the troops. I'm very passionate about that, about helping wounded soldiers and their families. There's a huge military charity called Operation Homefront. I also do visits to hospitals and I donate money to families, who, if their sons are in the hospital, the parents have to leave work to care for them, and that just kills them financially. I do a lot of benefits, and say yes as much as I can.
Q: Which expenses pose the biggest challenge for you?
A: Hmmm. Everything. I have a personal assistant and housekeepers; I have a band, a manager, agents and a PR person. And my kids have tutors. It's crazy. My expenses are pretty big: We travel a lot, my daughter's in college, and I'm not that great with money. But I have a business manager and I've been working with him since 2008. He takes care of all the bills. He also takes care of the taxes.
Q: Being an entertainer has put a lot of money at your disposal. What are the most important lessons you've learned?
A: I know a lot of people are able to make really good investments, but I'm not the kind of "money person" who knows how to do that. I've had people help me out, but that really didn't work, either. Investing is definitely an art, like anything else. It's an art to make money, and an art to make it grow bigger and bigger. So I save. I've let my money build up, and it's accumulated into a lot over a period of time. And that's really cool.

Mo Marley will take an England Under-19 side to Parma for their final game of 2007, an international friendly against Italy.
With Arsenal in UEFA Women's Cup action during that period, Rebecca Spencer and Gilly Flaherty will miss the trip, providing an opportunity for Leicester City 'keeper Sophie Le Gross and new Leeds United signing Jade Moore to impress.
Italy, like England, have qualified for the second phase of the 2008 UEFA Under-19 Championships, finishing joint top of a group that included Russia, Northern Ireland and Israel.
In centre forward Christiana Girelli, the Azzure have a player who found the net four times in three qualifiers, and will provide another strong test for Marley's squad.
The match takes place next Wednesday, 21st November at Centro Sportivo "Il Noce" in Parma, with a 10am kick off time (GMT).

Hobbitses (and humans) will all be wanting one of these all-in-one digital credit card gizmos since they can't get their hands on "the ring".
Falling easily for the fifty percent off hype, I already pre-ordered mine. Since they won't start shipping until Summer 2014, I may not even have it in time for our summer family vacation.
You could order yours (and pay for it immediately) by clicking here before December 13 or so, assuming they don't "run out" of the "limited quantities".
What does it do?
The Coin stores the swipe information from credit cards, debit cards, gift cards, membership cards, probably most any mag stripe card that's normally swiped or usable in a dip style card reader.
You'll attach the included scanner to your Android or iOS device, likely your phone, and swipe the card. The information is stored on the Coin servers, with NO limit to the number of cards.
If you decide to shuffle the cards on your Coin, you'll need an Internet connection to do so.
Once in your phone, you can load up to 8 cards at a time. This limitation may be a deal breaker for some, especially if you don't get in at the $50 price and have to pony up a hundo. For me, it's no biggie, I have more than 8 cards, but I don't carry more than 8 unless I'm headed to Vegas with my casino cards.
Pretty cool, right? It would be cooler if the cards loaded into the Coin actually DID float above it, but I'm pretty sure they don't.
Don't Leave Me
As a security feature, you can essentially tether your Coin to your Android or iOS phone.
If you're a doofus and leave your Coin where you last paid for something, your phone will yell at you once you get out of bluetooth range.
Should the Coin be out of contact for longer than a period of time you select, it will lobotomize itself temporarily until it regains contact with your phone.
Cool Things
The Coin is the same size as a regular credit card.
The small display offers enough information to make sure you have the right card and get you through transactions that need a visible CVV/CVC code.
Is It Worth $100?
I'm not sure the Coin is worth $100 to me, if it wasn't cool technology that makes a lot of sense. The $50 price point is certainly twice as attractive.
If I used a bunch of different cards more often, the benefit of carrying a Coin instead of multiple cards would go way up. I imagine there will be some resistance in some places to the fact it isn't a "regular card", as in "Do you have a regular card instead of this thing, sir?"
One of the major kickers is that the Coin has a non replaceable and non rechargeable battery. So, once the battery dies, the Coin is an unusable piece of plastic. Coin estimates with "normal" 10-20 swipes a day (wow!), the battery will survive two years. If we use that number, and you pay $100 for a Coin, it works out to $4.17 a month for your Coin.
Of course if you buy it before the offer expires, that drops to a little over 2 bucks a month.

text: This post is not a question but what has been for me a solution to a problem wit h using Unicolor and Beselar (and other) drums to develop sheet film. One of the problems with the drums is keeping the films apart when developing four sheets, as the little rubber seperators tend to fall off, are hard to use and easily mi splaced. I solved the problem with one of my tanks by drilling a 1/8" hole throu gh the drum on two sides and then inserted a very tight fitting piece of round n eophrene in the hole so that it sticks out inside the drum where the rubber sepe rators fit. I marked the drum by sliding two trash negs into place and marked be tween the negs. I left about 3/8th of an inch sticking out inside. It is easy to slide the neg past the peg for the bottom sheet. It works great and there are n o leaks from the tight fitting plug. I made the plugs by cutting an O-ring to ab out 3/4 inch in length and tapering the end a bit so it would start into the hol e. Any round rubber or neophrene will do as long as it fits tight. I then pulled the plug through to the inside with needle nose pliers and trimmed it to length . The plug needs to be trimmed to about 1/8th long on the outside of the drum. T his is not in the form of a question, just a tip and can be ignored or deleted i f desired.

Outsourcing is defined as the contracting out of a business process. The term "outsourcing", as we have learned, can mean something very different from one company to another; though the idea might be the same, the model varies significantly. The decision of determining if outsourcing is right for your company can be difficult since passing off any level of work to a third party comes with its own risks.
In this SOS Educational Webcast we will delve into:
- Different types of co-sourcing/outsourcing models in the industry
- What helps to make a decision on outsourcing (pros/cons)
- How to work with your vendor(s) in preparing:
- Employee communications
- Management planning
- Problem resolution
- Financial reporting
- Best practices for administrative challenges and frequently asked questions
Join our expert panel in this discussion that will leave you with more answers and a clearer picture on how outsourcing can work best for YOU.

Question for admin and sales.
After years of abstinence from ripping cds and storing my collection on a dodgy linux computer (I fell by the wayside and started playing the cds again when the system crashed!), I have decided to join back up with modern society.
I remembered I had purchased DBPoweramp previously, and when I checked, I found that I had purchased it twice. R14.4 (Single PC) & R15.3 (Single PC). I dont know why I did this, but thats what it shows.
I would like to get the latest version, and maybe perfect tunes also? One other thing (I like to be awkward), there is only I will use this, but if I wanted the program/s on my PC, and my MAC, is there a cost effective way to do this please? Only my MAC is portable, which the PC isnt, and the versatility would be a bonus.
Thank you so much.

39. First mistake in 2005?
* Spent too much freakin' time doing this LJ entry. *smile*

Tundra fire effects mapping from synthetic aperture radar satellite data
Document Type
Conference Paper/Presentation
Publication Date
Traditional electro-optical, satellite-based methods of fire detection and monitoring are severely limited in the arctic due to persistent cloud cover and short growing seasons. Radar data can provide an alternative to traditional electro-optical methods due to all-weather imaging capabilities. Previous research in boreal forests and current evaluation in the Alaskan tundra shows that synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data can be used successfully to map burn perimeters and distinguish burned and unburned areas within the perimeter over a longer period of time than optical sensors. Results will be presented on the use of SAR data to measure spatial variations in the microwave signature across a fire scar as well as temporally throughout the growing season and across multiple years. The extensive historical archive of ERS-1 and -2 SAR data has been used to characterize three burned areas in the tundra regions of Alaska. These fires include the 1993 Wainwright fires in the north-western part of the North Slope (Fig 1), the 1999 Uvgoon fire in the Noatak National Preserve and 2007 Anaktuvuk River fire north of the Brooks Range in the central area of the North Slope. The data record includes pre-burn, burn, and post-burn observations until the fire scars are no longer discernible on the landscape. Our results show that burned areas are visible reliably five years post burn and then faintly apparent thereafter up to 12 or more years post-burn. Conversely, our analysis of electro-optical (Landsat) imagery shows near complete obscuration of the fire scar one year post-burn (Loboda et al. 2013). Also presented are results of an analysis of the effects of post-fire soil moisture, as measured in weather and climate datasets, on the SAR signature measured from the available image data archive.

Like clockwork, every January growing up my family gathered at my grandparents' house for what I now recognize was a food tradition that started long before I was born––going back at least as far as when my mom was a child.
There were no birthdays to celebrate in January (or February for that matter), and no one remembers the dinner's origins, but without fail, on what always seemed to be the coldest Sunday—the one that frosted over your eyelashes—we bundled up and made the trek to what was then the west side of Omaha and now isn't even the midpoint.
The menu never differed and only one thing was ever served: piping hot chop suey served over white rice. I clearly recall a large roaster filled to the brim with lean pork and a mix of Chinese vegetables—bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts—all swimming in a savory brown gravy whose consistency my great-grandma Mary Barney would agonize about getting just right.
Today, I am curious about how a Chinese dish made its way to middle America and into the hands of a South Omaha–raised daughter of a German immigrant to become our family's tradition. I only wish I had asked Great-Grandma before she passed away when I was in college.
In the face of human differences and divisions, I am comforted to recognize the vital role of food and food traditions in all cultures across the globe to bring people together. Sharing a meal can be the catalyst to make new connections and deepen already existing ones. In this new year, whom might you invite to share a meal? In these pages I invite you to Edible's table and hope you enjoy the feast.
Amy S. Brown
P.S. As part of the Edible Omaha family, you know Lucy and I are searching for new publishers with the skills and time to grow the magazine. If you or someone you know is interested, please e-mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com.

We love flapjack, however my home made ones have not been as good recently (not soft enough) and therfore I have been desperately searching for a new recipe!
A Google search led me to The Hedge comber blog and what claimed to be "The best flapjack recipe in the whole wide world ever!". Quite a statement! I had all the ingredients in so I decided to give it a whirl and it did not disappoint!
Fab recipe, perfect consistency and very filling! I cut into 10 pieces instead of 16, next time I will go for 16 these are way too big!
The boys loved them too so I'll certainly be making them again!
I enjoyed them with a nice cup of tea!
Recipe can be found over on The Hedge combers blog here

To give some background to our trip - I was born in Odessa Ukraine, and have been contemplating for some time to introduce my wife to the city and the country of which she heard so much. The Odessa-Kiev cruise on Viking Lomonosov provided a possibility to do so with an added bonus of "highlighting" Crimea as well.
The ship is very simple -â€" library, 2 bars (one forward and one aft), 2 restaurants (while we were assigned to Kiev restaurant the seating is open for all meals which gives you a chance to mingle with fellow passengers) and a sun deck -â€" otherwise just a hallways with cabins on both sides (4 decks total). Our cabin (229) was 90 sq.ft -â€" the TINIEST we've ever seen J but we were able to get everything out of suitcases and store them away with no problem so it was quite cozy and comfy (besides its not like we spent TOO much time in it)
Actually it turned out to be a good location since all the cabins have a large window but all are overlooking a given deck so one has to be mindful of the situation least some fellow cruisers will catch you de-flagrante J The Main deck is "Crew" deck -â€" so we hardly had anyone moving past our window and we were literally steps away from the Front Desk and the disembarking doors (proves a good thing when the crowds begin to gather to go ashore)
BY FAR -â€" it is the most passive cruise EVER! There is no "activities" on board for those mornings\afternoons that you are cruising -â€" I reckon the idea is for you to sit on the deck and soak up the scenery...but then you kinda ease in into this "lazy" lifestyle...and if need be -â€" there are books and games in library, they were showing movies on TV (mostly tapes not live but that's OK) and there were appropriate lectures on Ukraine History in general and ports-of-call when appropriate.
Food was AWESOME (surprisingly I did not gain an ounce case you KNOW I was eating like a pig (or make it 2 pigs) J). They are also liberal with that wine that comes as a part of the package -â€" once its starts flowing you can ask for refills and they will give it to you no questions asked. The drinks at the bar are good (the best LIIT I've ever tasted) and they use top shelf brands (drink of the day was about 55 UAH). Draft beer (Slavutitch -â€" Ukrainian Beer) is very good and actually is cheaper than Coke (28 UAH vs 30 UAH for the same size glass)
Speaking of Coke -â€" all soft drinks are charged even during the meals. At the same - water and iced tea are available with meals, 4 juices are there for breakfast and there is a coffee machine on Middle Deck that works 24/7 (and like I said -â€" wine is flowing during the dinner) so we were not hurting for soda. They also give you a 1 liter bottle of water in the cabin (if need be -â€" replenished every day). And there is no limit on stuff you can buy while in port and bring back into cabin (there is a small fridge). You KNOW some folks were dragging booze in on daily basis J If you want to serve it at the dinner though -â€" its 80 UAH cork fee charge.
The stuff is very friendly and helpful but their English is limited -â€" if you "overstep the boundaries" by asking some unfamiliar question -â€" they will give you a blank look and say Yes (with the same friendly smile.... But that's about it)
The weather while in Odessa and Crimea was just perfect! Couple of showers but kinda "passing by" or we hit everything at the right time (rained while we were in transit or inside the building) so that was not an issue aside carting the jackets with us some days and the temps were in upper 70s to upper 80s
The 1st days into the river it did change to cooler (upper 50s -â€" mid 60s) but bearable. Unfortunately 1 day was a complete wash out - we were lucky that we just finished watching the Cossack Horse Show when the skies literally opened up and we were shooed-in back onto buses thus cutting short the rest of the visit (kinda was a bummer since this was on Khortitsa Island where Ukrainian (Zaporozhye) Cossacks started from as I was looking forward to view some of the fortifications and such) and the next 2 were kinda gloomy as well (it would periodically drizzle on and off -â€" just enough to be a slight nuisance here-and-there). But by the time we got to Kiev it was all nice and sunny again
The "included" tours...well... they just cemented my reason of trying to stay away from organized tours (but then it is exactly the reason why I DO stay away from them). You are assigned the bus in the beginning of the cruise so the same driver and guide will be with you for duration. There were 28 people on our bus (it does not seem like the cruise was sold-out) and most of the folks are in their 70s so... time to get on get off... and pretty much running through museums and other exhibits -â€" not much you can do just go with the flow. (Be prepared to hear & see a lot of WWII (or as they call it The Great Patriotic War) stuff esp. since they are celebrating 65 years of VE Day this year)
That said I was only too happy that I hired a private guide for all 4 days in Crimea. He was a great guy, had his own A\Cd little car (which did come handy in some places that the bus would not even DREAM to go through), very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and ... just everything you want to ask for in a guide!
To make a long story short -â€" we hit EVERY place that Viking advertized as "optional" tours (even when one had to choose between "tour 1" or "tour 2") and THEN SOME! He got us into places that are closed to tourist crowds and pretty much I got everything I wished for (the only thing that was on my list that I didn't get to do was to take a cable car to the top of Ai-Petri (St Peter's) Mountain but that's only because Viking told me that the ship would be leaving Yalta at 2:00 pm and it actually did at 1:00 pm -â€" which lost us that hour and is not in any way Sergey's (the guide's) fault). All in all I paid him $510.00 $50.00 of which was a tip and was also paying whatever the entry fees to places were. So maybe the whole experience ran me $600-650 (tops) but again it was well worth it for me because of what we saw & did vs what the rest of the crowd did (or, obviously -â€" didn't). If you are interested -â€" contact him at sergo22yalta at gmail.com (again his name is Sergey). You most certainly can tell him that I recommended J
To highlight one examle of what I just told you -â€" I have photos of me sitting in Stalin's cabinet behind his desk and Sergey and I in Molotov's quarters - both are taken at Yusupov's Palace which was where Russian Delegation was HQ'd during Yalta Conference (US Delegation was at Livadia (White) Palace (included in Itinerary) and Brits were at Vorontzov's (Alupka) Palace -â€" optional tour). The place originally belonged to Prince Felix Yusupov's parents and the big claim to fame here is that Price Felix is the one who murdered Rasputin
In any case -â€" nothing that any other fellow cruiser even dreamt of remotely seeing....
There is not much to see & do in Dnepropetrovsk and Kremenchug -â€" they are just "1/2-dead monuments" to Soviet industry and I honestly have no idea as to why they are on the itinerary (I'd much more to skip one or both of them and spent that time in Kiev) but I'm not the one who makes the itinerary.
No matter what -â€" the time in Kiev is simply NOT ENOUGH so make the best of what you'll see on organized tours! The ship arrives in Kiev shortly after lunch and you practically immediately carted off onto the tours of St. Sophia Cathedral and the Kiev_Pecherskaya Monastery of the Caves (once more - NOT ENOUGH TIME AT ALL!!!!) Upon the reurn - you have a choice -â€" either free time (shopping etc) or take a Jewish Kiev tour (to Babi Yar and the Main Synagogue). The tour is not advertized in Viking brochures and is 330 UAH pp; lasts approximately 2 hours and is a somber experience if you are familiar with the Babi Yar (done with a very knowledgeable English speaking local guide)
I spent about $300.00 in tips all around (ship personnel and local guides) and ran up perhaps a $150.00 bill on board which included the above tour and some souvenirs. -â€" again PITTANCE since it was all in Hrivnas
I also have to mention that they take away your passports for the duration of the cruise (no reason to make any scenes or protests as that wont help any) they give you some tail of a whale about customs but it's a lie -â€" probably a left-over appendix from "good old" Soviet times. In any case -â€" they give you a card (one per person) with your name, cabin # and bus # instead and it serves as your ID and also a "whereabouts" tool inasmuch as that you have to give them your cabin key for these cards every time you go ashore and thus exchange back upon return -â€" so they can see if anyone is "still out". They are not computerized at all in that sense -â€" all on board stuff is still done via signing individual purchase receipts. Once your bill is settled (last "cruising" morning on the way to Kiev) -â€" you get the passports back.
At the last day I simply decided not to go through the hustle of haggling with either cab drivers or hackers about the fare to Borispol Airport and just let the Front Desk order me one of their "affiliate" cabs. The taxi was there 10 mins before the scheduled time - nice, clean & comfortable car. The trip took about 40 mins and the fare was 300.00 UAH (+ 30 UAH tip). Thus - as far as my "transfers" go I think I beat the Viking price hands down....
So in conclusion -â€" there are some setbacks but on the overall -â€" a very worthy experience.
Our cabin (229) was 90 sq.ft -â€" the TINIEST we've ever seen J but we were able to get everything out of suitcases and store them away with no problem so it was quite cozy and comfy (besides its not like we spent TOO much time in it)
Actually it turned out to be a good location since all the cabins have a large window but all are overlooking a given deck so one has to be mindful of the situation least some fellow cruisers will catch you de-flagrante J The Main deck is "Crew" deck -â€" so we hardly had anyone moving past our window and we were literally steps away from the Front Desk and the disembarking doors (proves a good thing when the crowds begin to gather to go ashore)

On Thursday's season finale of 30 Rock, Liz Lemon revealed what she thinks is a dream summer vacation: 12 weeks of community service on a chain gang. She gets to be outside, wear comfortable clothes, garden, and learn Spanish! But we know that Tina Fey has higher standards. To that end, we've come up with a handy list of activities for her to do on her hiatus (besides having her second child):
Bummed about the end of 30 Rock? Get scoop on 39 other season finales
-Special guest star to-do list: Lady Gaga and Sarah Silverman (as sisters!), Tom Cruise, the Navy SEAL who killed Osama bin Laden, Steve Jobs and the Vienna Boys' Choir.
-Take a good look at OWN's summer lineup; there's lot of material there.
-Listen carefully to young Alice Richmond for Tracy Jordan's next catchphrase.
-Plan Stone Mountain, Georgia-set episode in which we meet Kenneth's entire extended family (might we suggest 3rd Rock-ers Jane Curtin and John Lithgow as Maw and Paw Purcell?)
-How bad could it be if she just made Ina Garten her BFF? (Bring good white wine, Tina.)
-Get those thoughts of another episode of Queen of Jordan out of your head.
-Lock down Elizabeth Banks for as many episodes as possible before the Hunger Games insanity begins. Jack needs his Avery, and we need to not see any more Sad Jack.
-Similarly, bring back Will Forte for at least one more episode. We're dying to hear all about Jenna and Paul's summer among the brambles with the genetically altered men with minotaur heads.
-Put your Spanish for Older Women lessons to good use and finally figure out what Sabor de Soledad means.
-Cast Patton Oswalt as Lutz's "platonic friend."
What would you like Tina to do on her summer vacation?

BibliographyKernin, Roger A. and Peterson, Robert A. Strategic Marketing Problems: Cases and Comments. 11th Edition.
GodivaGodiva is a chocolate company famous for its elegant hand-crafted chocolates. It originated in Brussels, Belgium. In July 1991, the President of Godiva Europe, Charles van der Veken completely restructured the company. He fired the marketing staff and changed the retail distribution network by removing GodivaÃÂs representation from numerous stores. These changes were done to the Godiva-Belgium network making these franchises comparable to those in the United States and Japan.
Godiva was purchased in 1974 by the multinational Campbell Soup Company. Godiva International is made up of three decision centers: Godiva Europe, Godiva USA and Godiva Japan.
The current concern of Godiva International is to convey a similar image of Godiva chocolates across the world: the image of a luxury chocolate that is typically Belgian. Belgium is the birthplace of chocolates and where the consumption is strongest.
In Spain and Portugal, chocolates are a new concept. Godiva was first to introduce its chocolates a few years ago and consumers were very receptive. Godiva has opportunities to expand in these markets. With the right marketing techniques Godiva has the ability to grow.
Godiva also had opportunities to grow in Japan. One problem is that 75 percent of chocolate purchases take place around ValentineÃÂs Day. Godiva must find ways to attract the Japanese market to chocolates on other holidays and occasions, not just ValentineÃÂs Day.
Godiva hand-makes 30 percent of their chocolates and the other 70 percent is machine made. Of the 70 percent machine-made, 60 percent are decorated by hand. Since Godiva hand-makes some of its chocolates, it has an advantage over other chocolate companies. This is also a reason Godiva is more expensive than other chocolate companies. Consumers are drawn to these chocolates...

Water Consumption Needs Urgently to Be Managed
In 2010, the UN declared access to clean water a human right. Three years later, 500 water scientists from the Cooperative Remote Sensing Science and Technology Centre warned that the majority of people on Earth will be forced to live with severe pressure on fresh water supply within the space of two generations, due to over-use, climate change and pollution.
Considering this sobering prediction, which could lead to death and human disaster, it's no surprise that organizations, NGOs and governments are putting increased pressure on industries, such as mining, which uses water heavily, to be more sustainable.
Not that encouragement should be needed, as for miners, no water means no business.
Mining uses water primarily for mineral processing, dust suppression, slurry transport and employees' needs. In most mining operations, water is sought from groundwater, streams, rivers and lakes, or through commercial water service suppliers. But often, mine sites are located in areas where water is already scarce and, understandably, local communities and authorities often oppose mines using water from these sources.
But it isn't just the procurement of water that's a problem; water extraction is also an issue. In many cases, especially with underground mining, water needs to be pumped away from a mine site, which can reduce the levels of ground water, deplete surface water or cause pollution to local rivers.
If needed, we recommend you here with a high quality machinery manufacturer which will provide you with both world-class products and services.
Henan Hongxing Machinery Co., Ltd is famous for its various mining machines which include stone crushing machines, ore dressing machines, cement equipment and powder making machines applied in many fields around the world. The best-sellers of the company are jaw crushers, mobile crushers, Raymond mills, sand makers, rotary kilns with different types and features. For more information, you can enter its official website on the internet.

CASA Kids Enjoy Cajun Holiday Tea with Papa Noel
On December 17th and 18th the Paddlewheeler Creole Queen set sail with Papa Noel and a cast of Christmas characters. This annual cruise brings kids together with some of their favorite Cajun holiday friends like Mr. and Mrs. Noel, Gaston the Gator, and several elves on vacation from the North Pole. They were treated to a festive holiday tea complete with snacks and tidbits sure to delight any taste buds. Activities following the meal included a mysterious magician who dazzled attendees with feats of impossibility and a face painter who turned children into fantastical creatures from their wildest dreams! Rounding out the event was story time with Mrs. Noel and a snuggle session with Gaston, a real live baby alligator. Kids even got the chance to mail their Christmas letters directly to Papa Noel! And because this is Louisiana we had to have a little lagniappe, which this year was a take home alligator - of the stuffed variety, Gaston stayed with us.
As a special treat we were joined this year by a group from the Court Appointed Special Advocates for Children (CASA) of Jefferson Parish. We invited 30 children, along with their caring and dedicated foster parents, to spend a few hours in a southern winter wonderland aboard the Creole Queen. We were so excited to give this gift to such a wonderful group of children and adults! Seeing the joy on their faces was the best Christmas gift any of the Creole Queen team could hope to get. One parent noted "These children were so delighted to be a part of this incredible experience, it allowed them to step away from their reality for a moment and just enjoy being a child again."
Children whose homes are no longer safe for them to return to are placed in the confusing and oftentimes overwhelming world of foster care. That's where CASA Jefferson comes in. CASA trains volunteers to be appointed by judges to serve as the voice for children in foster care. By getting to know their assigned child and the people involved in the child's life, Advocates can fight for the best interest of the child and serve as a consistent, responsible adult presence in their life. Through recommendations made in court, Advocates ensure that their CASA child's needs are being met and that they're not lost in our overburdened child welfare system.
The Paddlewheeler Creole Queen looks forward to hosting more families from CASA Jefferson on our many specialty cruises, such as our famous Hoppin' Down the River Easter Cruise! You can read more about our cruises at creolequeen.com/mississippi-river-cruises. We also set sail daily for the Historical Cruises and the Dinner Jazz Cruise throughout the year.

Archie's Hunting Tales and Adventures
By: Archie Sybrandt
About the Book
You will enjoy Archie's Hunting Tales & Adventures covering his seventy years of intriguing and humorous exploits. The book is his journal and contains the memories he would like to share with you. Starting in the late 1940's in Rush City, a small, rural Minnesota town, he takes you across the northern part of the United States into Canada and Alaska, ending on the east coast an old man living in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania. Archie's stories reflect back on a simpler time when you could put a sandwich in your pocket along with a few shells, a knife on your belt, pick up your rifle, and go hunting. He feels there is so much hype and information on hunting today if you try to understand it; you will just drive yourself nuts, so work with what you know. Wisdom he once received in a fortune cookie: "Experience is the best teacher; the truth is, it is the only teacher."
About the Author
Much of his hunting and fishing was done on land open to the public. Armed with a map and his woodsman skills he is often successful. Archie enjoys a practical joke and his stories reflect many. You will meet numerous characters in his stories; good people with a sense of humor.
When Archie wanted more of a challenge he built his own flintlock muzzle loading rifles, made his own period clothing and went hunting. He has built seventy-eight muzzle loading rifles and brought many people into the brother-hood of shooting and hunting the way our forefathers did 250 years ago.
Archie has been married to Sharon his first (and only) wife, for fifty years. They have one daughter and three sons. The book tells of many adventures his children have shared with their dad as he raised them to love the outdoors.

Our projects range from community gardening to interactive street art, spoken word events and food bank collections. We are always on the look out for new and creative ways to bring kindness to peoples lives.
Since OAKS was born in the summer of 2015 we have worked with many community groups in London and beyond.
Food For Thought
Food For Thought is a night of music and raising awareness about the increasing number of people depending on the food they receive from food banks. Instead of paying an entry fee on the door, people bring a bag of long life food to go towards the collection. At the most recent event we collected enough food to produce over 540 meals for The Hackney Foodbank.
Redundancy, illness, benefit delays/sanctions, domestic abuse, debt, family breakdowns and paying for the additional costs of heating during winter are just some of the reasons why people go hungry. Plus there are thousands more who are just one pay check away from not being able to afford the food they need.
Free Cake giveaway
Free cake! OAKS volunteers donned their aprons and baked over 300 cakes to be given away to the unsuspecting public. We took to the streets of Brixton to hand out the cakes in under an hour and met some amazing people in the process.
Community Gardening
Changing the world one OAK at a time. We have organised volunteer action days with both The Nomadic Community Garden (NCG) and Poplar Community Garden to aid their missions of turning areas of wasteland into thriving gardens for local residents. Activities included helping build vegetable beds for the allotments, getting creative with pallets to produce furniture for the gardens, helping decorate a stage for local musicians and preparing and planting wild flower beds.
Our Projects.
Kindness Checkpoint
Public spaces where you can drop off acts of kindness, anything from food to house hold items you no longer need or use as a donation to someone in your community. We noticed items being left in this spot for others to take and were inspired to make it an official place where people can drop off an act of kindness. If you know of a place that would benefit from a Kindness Checkpoint, please get in touch and we'll see if we can make it happen.
Women of Voice
A night of spoken word and music to celebrate International Women's Day and to raise money for Housing for Women, a charity that works to empower women through providing good homes and services and challenging inequalities faced by women. The headliners from the night were Poetic Pilgrimage, a British Muslim hip-hop duo who express themselves through the art of rhythm, covering personal and social issues.
Calais 'jungle' refugee camp
A group of volunteers went over to Calais for the weekend to help out at the refugee camp. We spent Saturday in the warehouse that supplied the camp, sorting donations and putting together emergency packs. In the lead up to the visit we crowd funded money which was spent on buying large quantities of essentials such a tooth paste and toiler paper. We also delivered over 1,000 condoms which were distributed in the toiletry packs and by the volunteer doctors who worked in the camp. We spent time in the camp itself meeting some of the refugees and helping them build temporary shelter to cook in. We were also then kindly invited to share a delicious meal with our new friends.
Acton O.A.P Bingo Club
This was the first ever OAKS. We got a group together and spent the day with the members of the Acton Old Age Pensioners Bingo Club. We donated food and prizes for the bingo winners and we decked out the hall with homemade bunting. To make the day special for the members, we hired a musician to come along and create a sing a long playing songs from the 50's and 60's. A few songs in, some of the ladies were up dancing in the middle of the hall with the volunteers. The hall was full of joy and stories about the good old days.
Interactive Community Street Art
We installed an interactive piece of art around a lamppost on Brick Lane, East London. Made up of wooden blocks, passers by were able to move them around and change the different body parts of the characters.
Tree Planting
We spent a morning planting apple trees with some of our younger volunteers at a Trees for Cities planting event in Southall. It was so beautiful to see young people enjoying nature and getting their hands dirty instead of playing computer games and looking at screens. Inspiring and encouraging young people to care about the environment is essential in promoting a more sustainable world, an issue extremely close to the roots of OAKS, as you can tell by our logo.

West Ham boss Gianfranco Zola is edging closer to signing Bordeaux forward Marouane Chamakh and is looking to sell James Collins to push the deal through.
Stoke manager Tony Pulis is still hopeful of signing Collins but the Hammers are also waiting to see if Aston Villa are willing to bid for the 25-year-old centre-back.
The money for Collins would be used for Morocco international Chamakh, who is needed to support Carlton Cole as Zola's only senior striker.
Chamakh wants to leave his French club and earlier in the summer was on the radar of Arsenal but Arsene Wenger felt his price was too expensive for a player whose contract is running out.
Meanwhile, left-back Herita Ilunga's facial injury means he is rated as doubtful to face Tottenham on Sunday in the Barclays Premier League clash at Upton Park.
Jonathan Spector is a likely replacement but Fabio Daprela, the Switzerland Under-19 international, impressed in a behind-closed-doors practice match against Watford.
Radoslav Kovac also featured in the 2-1 win, his first appearance since signing a permanent deal with the club. Josh Payne and Zavon Hines scored the goals in the friendly.

Justice Dept. Investigates Takeover of Calif. District
Officials at the U.S. Department of Justice confirmed last week that they are reviewing whether California violated the federal voting-rights law when it took over the troubled Compton district in 1993.
The department is responding to a complaint alleging that the state limited the voting rights of the city's racial minorities by reducing Compton's elected school board to an advisory capacity.
Federal lawyers also are exploring whether California failed to properly advise the department of the potential effects on the voting rights of minorities when the state intervened in a handful of other districts.
A few California counties, along with most Southern states, are required by the Voting Rights Act of 1965 to get Justice Department approval before doing anything that would affect minority voting rights.
The department has questioned takeovers of districts in other states on similar grounds. ("State Takeovers Run Afoul of Voting Rights Act," Sept. 11, 1996.)
A high-ranking department official said the agency does not comment on the details of reviews that are under way, and he cautioned against jumping to conclusions about the Compton complaint.
At least one school board member in Compton was elated by the news of the federal review.
Board Chief Pleased
"I have nothing but praise for the Justice Department," said Saul E. Lankster, the president of the embattled board. "I'm glad for the community's voters, whose rights have been trampled over for four years."
Mr. Lankster alleged in a letter to President Clinton last fall that the state takeover of his district violated federal voting laws.
Compton, which has 28,000 students in grades K-12, was taken over after the legislature loaned it $20 million to pay its bills. It is California's only state-run district. The Compton board recently lost a court bid to regain control by failing to establish that the district has made enough progress to rescind the takeover.
The California Department of Education's top lawyer said the state is on firm ground.
The takeover is not about voting rights, said Joseph R. Symkowick, the department's general counsel. Instead, it is an issue of state sovereignty and the right to authorize and disband local government bodies.

Like a joy on the heart of a sorrow,
The sunset hangs on a cloud;
A golden storm of glittering sheaves,
Of fair and frail and fluttering leaves,
The wild wind blows in a cloud.
Hark to a voice that is calling
To my heart in the voice of the wind:
My heart is weary and sad and alone,
For its dreams like the fluttering leaves have gone,
And why should I stay behind?
Poems are below...
Provide your analysis, explanation, meaning, interpretation, and comments on the poem Autumn Song here.

Like all great strikers in a rich vein of form Michael Owen is greedy in his thirst for goals.
The hat-trick hero of Munich scored England's all-important opening goal against Albania at St James's Park last night with the sweetest of finishes.
Yet he left one of his lucky grounds bemoaning the fact that he hadn't scored yet another hat-trick!
"It's always nice to score but I had a couple of chances before which I thought I should have done better with," admitted Liverpool's goal ace.
"I probably scored with the hardest chance of the lot.
"I've got a few goals at Newcastle in the past and it was good to do it again. This time the Geordies were on my side!"
Owen, who burst onto the international scene with a stunning finish against Argentina in the World Cup finals in France, went on: "It's in our hands now. We need one more win against Greece.
"It's been a great few days. This was equally as hard as the Germany game. Albania defended in numbers and every team that has played against them has found it hard.
"The manager said we'd have to be patient and we were. We knew we weren't going to beat them 5-1 - it's not often that Albania have lost by more than one goal.
"However the result was the important thing. We know we can play better than we did but we've put ourselves on top of our group and that's marvellous with only Greece at home left."
Owen's goal was his 14th for England in 32 games and his 11th this season from only seven starts.
"What is incredible is that all our goals against Germany and Albania were scored by Liverpool players," said Michael. "It shows the firepower we've got at the club."
Owen, still only 21, might have had a penalty with just four minutes gone when Albanian keeper Fotaq Strakosha appeared to trip him and he later sent a header wide and a strike straight at the keeper before intelligent movement allowed Paul Scholes to find him with a raking pass. His one-touch finish was impeccable.
"I loved playing in the World Cup finals and now I want to do it again," added Michael. "I know that time is on my side but that doesn't mean I want to wait. We are on the verge of something big."

GQ has revealed its list of "The 20 Worst Sports Franchises of All Time" in its October 2013 issue, on newsstands now. For the list, GQ considered any and all professional sports franchises—currently active or not—and identifies the top twenty most inventively awful, disappointing, frustrating, and mismanaged teams in sports history.
From the disgraceful Los Angeles Clippers (#4) to the self-destructive New York Jets (#6) to the historically helpless Philadelphia Phillies (#14), the teams on GQ's list are ones that have caused or continue to cause their fans the most agony.
Topping the list is every sports franchise based in Cleveland, a city which—between the Browns, the Indians, and the Cavaliers—"last celebrated a title four years before LeBron's mother was born."
Read the full article and find out why each franchise made the list at GQ.com: http://www.gq.com/entertainment/sports/201310/worst-sports-franchises-teams-of-all-time?mbid=gqpr#slide=1
It could have been worse news for Philadelphia, but I think the Phillies are kind of coming off of those 'bad' lists… let's not forget that game in Atlanta that the fans totally disgraced themselves and their city following a single 'bad call'. An infield fly was called in the first photo below in Atlanta and then the trash reigned down on the field in something that's never even been done on a Phillies field that I can remember. Maybe the Braves franchise got a pass for this one.

Update: Hemlock Semiconductor job cuts put Delta Fast Start chemical training program on hold
THOMAS TOWNSHIP, MI — About 50 employees at Hemlock Semiconductor Group's Thomas Township manufacturing site are losing their jobs this week.
"Hemlock Semiconductor is separating approximately 50 employees, as well as a number of contractor positions from the company's Michigan site this week due to continued volatility in the solar polysilicon industry," Jarrod Erpelding, a Dow Corning Corp. and Hemlock Semiconductor spokesman, said in a prepared statement. Bay County based Dow Corning is the majority owner of Hemlock Semiconductor.
Affected employees are being offered a severance package which includes access to health benefits and outplacement services, Erpelding said on Tuesday, May 14.
Hemlock Semiconductor is among the world's leading producers of polycrystalline silicon, the key component in solar cells and semiconductor devices. After these cuts, the Thomas Township site will have about 1,700 jobs, including contract positions, Erpelding said.
"We've had to make a lot of very difficult, but necessary decisions this year to combat the extraordinary forces impacting the polysilicon industry," Andy Tometich, president of Hemlock Semiconductor, in the prepared statement. "We believe through these actions, our Michigan site's staffing is better aligned with the demand we expect in 2013."
This isn't the first round of job cuts for the company this year.
On March 5, Hemlock Semiconductor announced it was permanently cutting 400 jobs, including 100 from Thomas Township. Experts blamed the cuts on an ongoing international trade dispute, primarily involving China.

Megan Fox is open to the idea of marriage to longtime boyfriend Brian Austin Green. The on/off couple are definitely on again and Transformers hot actress admits she's not averse to making a lifetime commitment to the actor.
Megan Fox, 24, tells news show Access Hollywood, "I've been in this relationship for so long and I love him so much and, of course, it's (marriage) in the future somewhere… I'm not closed to that idea."
And she insists she'll take that next step very carefully, because she only wants to be married once: "I just think, if you're going to (get married), if you're going to be with someone and make a commitment, it's good to tell the universe; to say, 'I'm committing to this person and making them my family.'
"I think there's something respectable about that and, if we were to do it, it would be for ourselves. It wouldn't be for society," Megan Fox added.
