Evening dress
People and Brands:
Medium: Off-white matte silk jersey
Date: 1944
Country: France
Credit: Museum purchase
This gown illustrates the fact that Madame Grès appropriated classical references from all periods, ranging from antiquity to art modern: the high-waisted, neoclassic, or "Empire" gown (a popular silhouette in the Grès classical vocabulary) emerged in the late 1940s, but became more prevalent in the 1960s and 1970s, and this particular columnar silhouette dominated women's fashion in the early years of the 19th century and was revived again in the early 20th. However, this is a thoroughly modern dress. With a voluminous, flowing skirt that sits close to the body when still, it affords the wearer great freedom.

Responsive Design for Delivering eLearning on Multiple Devices like Tabs, ipads, Smart Phones and Desk tops. Responsive Design for Learning Management System Interface.
Would you like to deliver eLearning that only works on One Device or on Multiple Devices?
The New Rule is responsive eLearning design – "One version that works on all devices"
What is "responsive design?"
When used about technology in 2013, "responsive" means that a program, website, or application works on any device you want to use, without any extra effort on your part. Since we started using smart phones, and then tablets, you as a user had to download different versions of a program to your phone, your tablet, and your PC. These different applications rarely worked exactly the same on each device. Sometimes, they behaved very differently. Sometimes, text was tiny, or images were too large, or you only saw the menu and not the content.
If it was a headache for you as a user, can you imagine what a headache it was for the developer? In addition to phones, tablets, and computers, developers had to create programs all over again for Windows, Android, and the Apple systems! Sometimes, a provider like Instancy had to keep track of NINE different versions of their software and eLearning content!
Authors developing eLearning content had similar challenges, making sure their e-courses were designed for the systems that learners used.
Now, Instancy has implemented intelligent responsive design, so that eLearning courses created on Instancy Learning Content Management System (LCMS) and delivered through the Instancy platform are offered in appropriate formats for the devices used by your learners.
Responsive Design in eLearning, delivering eLearning Content for a Multi Devices
HTML5: not a magic bullet
HTML is one of the languages that makes the internet work. It controls how words and images are displayed on your browser screen.
HTML5, the newest version of this language, allows web-based applications like Instancy to work seamlessly across all your devices. Interactive content provided inside these applications, such as audio and video files, will play on your device the same way it plays on your laptop.
However, taking advantage of the responsive design features supported by HTML5 is not as easy as flipping a switch. Responsive design suggests that content be displayed appropriately on the target device, not simply resized for a small screen. For example, Apple devices won't display Flash-based animation, so content delivered by Flash must be provided in a different form.
This is an enormous change, although our end users may not ever notice that their applications work better across the multiple devices they use to access mobile learning.
We in the eLearning industry have already seen the benefits. However, we think that it is the Instancy Authoring Tool users who will really notice and be able to benefit from responsive design as implemented in Instancy. Thanks to HTML5, learners will be able to enjoy interactive eLearning content across all their devices. The door is open for the next revolution of our industry: the mLearning (for Mobile Learning) revolution.
Figure 1: Enable Dynamic Content Resizing
To begin taking advantage of what HTML5 and Intelligent Responsive Design can do for your course development work, use the new Enable Dynamic Content Resizing option within the Instancy Authoring Tool. Thanks to this new option, your eLearning content will be automatically resized to fit any of the multiple devices your learners use.
We have already implemented the new technology in the learning management system (LMS). All devices (PC/Laptop browser, Tablet or Smartphone) can access the LMS. Once your course is uploaded to the catalog, it will be accessible on all devices without any additional work on your part.
In the image below you can see how the catalog page adapts to desktop, iPad and iPhone
Figure 2: Responsive Design for Learning Management System Interface
Figure 3: Example of Responsive Design.
Notice in the figure above that the image is automatically sized correctly for the screen, rather than cropped the way it might have been before HTML5.
At Instancy, we will continue to add HTML5-based innovations throughout our system. If you'd like to learn more, please contact us at email@example.com If you simply want to stay on top of what we're doing, sign up for our newsletter at the link to the right.

Screen Space - Camera Not Working & No Fove-Display - Unity Plugin v3.1.1
I have been working with the Fove Unity plugin v3.0 since you released it, and it was working very nicely (unless the memory leakage) !
I have been building a click & gaze - based interface for my project with a screen space - camera whose render camera was the Fove Interface.
It was working very well. But today, after I updated the Unity plugin to the v3.1.1 version, it stopped working. I can see the scene, and the screen space camera canvas on the desktop but not anymore in the Fove Headset.
Moreover, whatever the scene I am launching (with or without screen space camera canvases), I often got no Fove-Display at all.
Do you have any ideas of what is happening ?
Is there any means to come back to the v3.0.0 but with a fix of the memory leakage otherwise?
Thank you very much,
2 comments
Thanks for the report.
I fixed the 'screen space - camera' regression. I will work again next release (3.1.2).
Could you give me more information about the Fove-Display not rendering at all? Does it happen systematically on specific scenes or is it pretty random and changes every executions? Any logs either in Unity or the Fove Debug tool ? Would you have a repro scene?
Concerning the memory leak, unfortunately it required changes on both the native dll libraries and the c# wrapper, so it is not easy to back-port to 3.0.0. Having said that, the leak is happening only inside the editor (at each play/stop iteration). So if you have been able to develop normally so far it shouldn't impact you too much.
Hi Pierre,
I was happening randomly, whatever the scene, even in new scene with only the Fove Rig at (0,0,0) and a sphere at (0,0,20).
There was no logs in Unity, and I did not check the Fove Debug Tool.
Actually, everything worked again after reverting to Fove plugin v3.1.0
So I will keep it for the moment, until the next release!
I hope that will help you,
Thank you for your quick reply!

What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese method of healing used for at least four thousand years. It is a system of healing in which the body's inherent defence, repair and maintenance systems are stimulated by means of the selective insertion of fine needles through the skin. The points for insertion are located along the meridians along which the energy (or chi), according to the ancient Chinese tradition, is perceived to flow through the body.
Acupuncture History:
The oldest surviving description is the "Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine" which was written in China about 100 BC. By the sixth century, the practice of acupuncture had been codified and standardised throughout China, and it remained one of the mainstays of Chinese medical practice until outlawed in 1929 by the nationalist government of Chiang Kai-shek. The practice of acupuncture continued in rural areas until the ban was lifted by Mao Tse-tung in 1949.
The first information in Europe about acupuncture was published by Dutch traders to Japan in the late eighteenth century. In 1821, the Englishman J. M. Churchill published "A Treatise on Acupuncturation" under the aegis of the Royal College of Surgeons and brought knowledge of the practice into the British area of influence.
In addition to the natural therapists who practise traditional Chinese medicine, many doctors and physiotherapists now also use acupuncture and it has become an accepted form of treatment, particularly for the relief of pain, in orthodox medical practice. Scientifically, it is believed that acupuncture stimulates the release of endorphins. Endorphins are a potent narcotic painkiller that are naturally produced in small quantities in the body. A full explanation for its actions in other diseases has not yet been found, and its use for these is more controversial.
During acupuncture treatment, very fine needles are inserted into various points on the body. These points contain nerve endings, and correspond to areas of reduced electrical resistance on the skin. These areas can be detected by a meter that measures electrical resistance.

2012 issue in June. Until then, Short Order will serve up 100 of our
favorite dishes in the 305. If you have any nominations of your own,

59. Poached Duck Breast at Rusty Pelican
It hardly looks like a duck. Looks more like sushi, to tell you the truth. But wrapped within those nori-looing leaves are pieces of tender, juicy Long Island duck breast slow-cooked to an intensely delicious flavor. The "nori" is actually Swiss chard, and each roll of duck rests upon a puff of parsnip puree pooled by a glossy sauce accented with Grand Marnier.
Chanterelle mushrooms and duck skin cracklings, and spears of fried parsnip add textural contrast. The dish goes for $28, and it is clearly the most distinctive presentation of duck in town. The dazzling waterfront view from every seat in Rusty Pelican ;comes at no extra charge.

Healing My Hernia Status Update 7/25/2017
My Natural Hernia Cure Update 7/25/2017
Since I was feeling so good after the last video update that I made, I decided to go for a full day with no hernia belt on to see if the hernia would actually stay in. This is something I haven't done in a few years. I was super nervous, but I ended up having good results!
Usually, as soon as I wake up I put on the hernia belt so that it doesn't have a chance to pop out. I feel like this is an essential part of healing. On this morning however I didn't put it on. The first thing I did was the yoga exercises that I have been doing to heal the hernia. I had some work to do around the house, so after I was done with the exercises, I cleaned the pool, and did everything I needed to do. Nothing too strenuous, like heavy lifting or anything like that, but just steady moving around.
My wife and I decided that we were going to go food shopping, and to run some other errands, so I brought the hernia belt with me just in case. We were out all day going from store to store. We stopped to eat lunch, which really worried me, because the weight of the food in my stomach would really make the hernia bulge out in the past. But, surprisingly there was nothing! No bulge at all. There was a tiny bit of pressure, but it was a different kind of pressure than what I was feeling before. It feels like the hernia pushing on the inside of the muscle. It's hard to describe.
My wife was laughing at me all day because I kept sticking my hand in my waste band to check if the hernia was bulging out. I probably looked a little weird, but whatever. I was like the honey badger, and didn't give a shit. (click here if you don't know about the honey badger)
By the time we got home it was about 6:30 pm. I was starting to get really nervous that the hernia was going to start popping out, so I decided that I wasn't going to chance it anymore. I went ahead and put the hernia belt on since I still had to mow the lawn, and do a couple other things around the house. I've never realized how much comfort I get mentally from wearing the hernia belt every day. Just being able to do things and not worry so much about it popping out.
All in all it was great for me to see how far I've come in such a short amount of time. 1 month ago I would have never been able to even think about not wearing the belt, because as soon as I would get out of bed I would have a lump the size of two golf balls stacked on top of each other.
I'm not sure if I could have made it the full day or not without wearing the hernia belt. I just didn't want to chance it popping out and setting me back. That's why I decided to put it on.
I can't tell you how exciting it is to look down in the shower and not see that lump! I'm making really good progress and will keep you updated as I get further along.

Just stepping outside of the SEO loop and into the wider world of Search Engine Marketing (SEM), I thought it was time to post something about the use of Adwords in helping to market your recruitment website.
SEO is generally considered more 'worthy' by us SEO types. It's doing something 'healthy' to the text elements of your website to help serve your users. But it's good to remind ourselves from time to time that in some cases, paying more directly for those clicks through to your site is of equal or more value for money.
A recent study for NMA showed that 55% of companies surveyed intend to increase natural search budgets and just under half (45%) will up paid search investment this year as they look for measurable ROI in difficult economic times. The annual UK Search Engine Marketing Benchmark Report, which surveyed 800 client companies, agencies and search consultants, found large numbers were continuing to increase spend on organic search. 48% of them reported better returns on natural search (optimisation) campaigns and 43% claim greater ROI on paid search (pay-per-click).
Life of your investment
SEO is a better long-term investment. Put simply, when the SEO person has gone away, finished what they're doing – for a while or for good, then the work that they should have done on the site will still bring rewards int he longer term. That's the beauty of optimising for the organic rankings.
Is should come as no surprise tro you that if you pay for every click that comes through to your website, you can turn that on or off at the push of a button (or a few clicks on an account page). This is good if PPC is not working for you, or if your circumstances change; if your recruitment business moves into or out of a certain sector. But the benefits tend to stop the moment you press the 'off' button.
Immediate Returns
Inversely, when you need immediate returns; visitors to your site right now, then PPC is the obvious way to go. For a brand new website there is no way (for most budgets) that anyone could get you right up there in Google for anything other than the most niche search terms. Organic just takes time. It's about growth, which is one reason that it's called organic!
The Long Tail… again
I keep going on about the long tail but I can't over-egg this one. If your site has lots of good textual content then you are more likely to capture 'less frequent' and more specific search terms. Those terms are from searchers who generally know what they are looking for, and hence have a higher conversion rate. Example: Someone searching for 'Marketing Jobs' is a candidate just browsing. Someone typing "Marketing Account Manager Jobs in South London" into Google knows damn well what they're looking for and is far more likely to take action when they get to your site.
There is not really a way of capturing Long Tail search through PPC alone – the two notions don't work together. For good Long Tail traffic you need good weighty relevant textual content.
There's no substitute for good architecture
A short word about why SEO more is worthy in my opinion. SEO gets you into good habits. You become aware of a website that is easily spidered (crawled and 'read' by the search engines) and that it contains the (textual) content matching people's expectations. Whilst PPC can bring you traffic in for any keyword you want (if you've got the budget), it need not match those visitor expectations when they click through to it. I could pay £20,000 per month to get traffic to this site for the phrase 'iphone' and expect a good click-through rate. But the traffic would leave the site immediately once it got here. A well SEO'd site should never really do that. Content should match expectation.
So… just to put it into basic sound bites…
Long term investment
Capture "Long Tail" traffic
Forms good habits
Content matches visitor expectations
These things take time
Slow Return on Investment
Slower to adapt to change
Instant – so good for new sites
Easily cancelled / suspended
Top of the page
Need not match your content
Visitor expectations may not match content
Benefits end when the budget ends
Brings no long term benefit
Popular words can be VERY pricey.

How to book your ferry to Tenerife
Booking a ferry to or from Tenerife couldn't be easier with AFerry. You can either use the booking form at the top left of the page. Or, if you see a price you like on the left, just select the number of passengers and click go.
More About Tenerife
Tenerife is the largest and the most happening island of the Canaries.
The sun, the Mediterranean climate, lovely sandy beaches and of course the incredible volcanic landscape makes Tenerife a popular destination for holiday makers. You can simply sun bathe on the sandy beaches or explore the island.
You are never short of things to do in those incredible surroundings with many local pubs, restaurants and discos; vibrant culture and architecture and various water sports.
Tenerife is popular with tourists with resorts built around stunning beaches perfect for sunbathing. But if you want to get away from all that and experience real Canarian culture then a visit to the capital, Santa Cruz de Tenerife is highly recommended. In February the annual carnival takes place, which is second only to Rio in terms of classic fiesta spirit.
Tenerife Travel GuideTenerife, a popular tourist destination in the Canary Islands, is a beautiful island popular with German and British tourists because of its year-round hot weather and great hospitality, although not just that; what many people do not know is that Tenerife is home to a 3550m volcano that is easy to get to by cable car and a beautiful natural phenomenon.
Getting around Tenerife
The best way to get around Tenerife and experience the beauty of the Island's wilderness is to hire a car. Do be aware, however, that Tenerife is building many new roads and therefore GPS systems may not always have the latest routes accurately marked.
Things to See
Not necessarily the most popular place to visit on the island, the old town of La Laguna is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and to some, the most beautiful town in the Canary Islands. Just as beautiful is the world class botanical garden near Puerto de la Cruz and if you want to see more animals go to the Jungle Park or even the Loro Parque Zoo, which is also perfect if you are planning to travel with children.
They are lots of theme parks around Tenerife, some of which are water parks that are great for cooling off on a scorching day but whilst having lots of fun too! There's also places to just sunbathe or relax if you so wish.
Just as beautiful is the world class botanical garden near Puerto de la Cruz and if you want to see more animals go to the Jungle Park or even the Loro Parque Zoo.
The scuba diving here is said to be some of the best in Europe and like many other Spanish islands, water sports are very popular here and a must-do for everyone whatever age or ability. You can discover the markets in the city of Santa Cruz de Tenerife that will give you a real insight into life on Tenerife as well as modern city inputs such as museums, zoos, parks, shops, restaurants, cafes and art galleries.
Of course, the main attraction to Tenerife is not just the beaches but El Teide, Tenerife's very own volcano. Whatever the weather is on ground level, it is certain that at the top of the volcano it will be very cold. One of the best things about this is that Tenerife is one of the only places in the world where you can play in the snow one minute then the next be down on the beach sunbathing! There's so much to do in Tenerife and it will fun for all the family, whether you're 8 years old or 80.

Baddogz JiN
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Baddogz JiN's photography
About Me
Baddogz.JiN is a full-time Professional Fashion photographer Based in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia. He has 8 years expreriences on shooting advertising,Commercial,Fashion & wedding.
He claimed to love experimenting with light and shadow. Both Black & White and Color Portraiture as well as Fantasy are also among his favourite photography skills. Although he has no objection towards studio work, Jin prefers artistic shoots that use available lights. 'Natural light' & 'Studio lighting' artistic conceptual photography are his specialty. He believes in shooting something that able to tell a story apart of having strong concepts in the picture.
At the end of the shoot,he always asks "Did the shoot produce the desired result?"
Q: Hey Jin, what camera are you using now? What type of lens you prefer best? Any suggestions on which camera that is suitable for me?"
I have been shooting for eight years. During these eight years, I have been practicing and mastering my photography skills with various cameras and lenses. A camera is only a tool. It always depends on how you perceive and how you make use of what you perceived.
I began creating a lot of my portfolios with the cheapest camera, with the cheapest lens doing a lot of indoor and outdoor shooting. Only recently I have changed to a better camera with the money made from using the old camera. In my eight years of experience, I do not believe that cheap cameras cannot produce a better quality of photos.
"If photography is the passion of your life.There is nothing can stop you from doing it."
"Can you imagine?"
He selects themes that no other photographer would shoot. Many have chose background like parks or lakes. Jin himself would done otherwise. So if anyone had the same idea as his, it will automatically triggers the mind to think of Jin.
"Try to think out of the box". "There are no limitations for creativity."
Never his whole life he pays models for his personal shooting. Payment will only be made if he requires models for his workshops and/or jobs. The norm was the models paid him to shoot for their portfolios. He welcomes models who loves his concepts to co-operate for his future personal shooting. He prefers models with unique or natural look or possess very strong features or nice body shape depending on what concept he will be shooting.

This review concluded that presence of high intensity zones on magnetic imaging scans in patients with low back pain suggested a need for further discography and a negative scan could be used to exclude discogenic low back pain. These conclusions were based on a single study without justification and the authors' conclusions are unlikely to be reliable.
To evaluate the comparative roles of high intensity zones on T2 weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images in diagnosing discogenic low back pain.
PubMed, HighWire, TRIP, NICE, SIGN, ACP Journal Club, EBM Reviews, Clinical Evidence and UpToDate databases and Google Scholar were searched. Details on search terms were reported. It appeared that the search covered 1992 to September 2007. Two relevant journals were handsearched from January 1992 to December 2007.
Studies that evaluated MRI sagittal T2 weighted scans against the reference standard of discography in patients with low back pain and that reported sufficient data to estimate sensitivity and specificity were eligible for inclusion.
The authors did not report how studies were selected for inclusion.
Studies were assessed for methodological quality according to the criteria: independent blinded comparison with the reference standard; test evaluated in an appropriate patient spectrum; reference standard applied to all patients; and test validated in second independent patient group.
The authors did not state how many reviewers performed quality assessment.
Data were extracted to calculate sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative likelihood ratios and positive and negative predictive values together with 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
The authors did not state how many reviewers performed data extraction.
A narrative synthesis was presented.
Ten studies were included (number of patients not reported). All studies included an independent blind comparison with the reference standard and applied the reference standard to all patients. All studies except one included an appropriate patient spectrum. None of the studies validated the test in a second independent patient group.
Estimates of sensitivity ranged from 11% to 98%. Estimates of specificity ranged from 70% to 100%.
For suspected discogenic low back pain, presence of high intensity zones suggested a need for further discography. If MRI was negative for high intensity zones, the disease could be excluded.
The review addressed a clear objective and inclusion criteria were defined. The literature search included several relevant sources. No specific attempts were made to reduce language and publication bias and it was unclear whether any language or publication restrictions were applied. Details on the number of reviewers involved in each stage of the review process were lacking and so it was not possible to determine whether appropriate steps were taken to minimise bias and errors in the review process. Study quality was assessed with some relevant criteria and the results of the quality assessment were clearly reported. Details on individual studies included in the review were lacking and so it was difficult to determine the generalisability of results. Narrative synthesis appeared appropriate, but possible explanations for differences between studies were not investigated and the review focused on the findings of a single study without justification for why this study was selected. The authors' conclusions were unlikely to be reliable.
Practice: The authors stated that MRI for high intensity zones was recommended as routine in patients with low back pain. This recommendation was not supported by the results of the review.
Research: The authors did not state any implications for practice.
This is a critical abstract of a systematic review that meets the criteria for inclusion on DARE. Each critical abstract contains a brief summary of the review methods, results and conclusions followed by a detailed critical assessment on the reliability of the review and the conclusions drawn.

If you haven't heard already, subs, ratings and reviews are the key to winning the game in iTunes. How may times have you heard a podcast host wrap things up by saying, "go head over to iTunes and leave us a 5 Star review". Have you ever considered that your listeners may not know how to leave a review?
My grandma may listen to my podcast, but I can assure you she has no idea how to leave an iTunes review. The old adage that people need to be told what to do still rings true. It doesn't stop there though.
You need to show your audience exactly how to leave a review for your show. And the best way to do this is by creating what I call a show page… what is a show page you ask?
Show page explained in 2 minutes:
A show page is step-by-step instructions on how they leave a review for your show. This can be done by taking a screen shot, video, or info graphic and adding it to a page on your website.
Here's a example of the one we created for MicScience using Jing:
Screenshot #3
If you're still not convinced, check out the $100MBA show page that Nicole and Omar put together. They masterfully tie in the credibility of reviews from major publications and fans.
So, how exactly do you go about creating your show page? First let's start with some of the tools you'll need:
- Jing or screenshot app
- ScreenFlow or Camtasia
- YouTube or Vimeo
- Admin access to your website to create a new page
Step 1. Find your show in iTunes and take these three screen shots
Screenshot #1
Note: Screenshot #1 one has be to taken from iTunes web browser. Just search for your show in Google and look for iTunes web page.
Screenshot #2
Screen shot #3
(See above)
Step 2. Create a new page on your website
If you're on word press, go to the "Pages" section on your admin panel then click "add new". Here you'll add your screenshot images and the corresponding steps that you'll want listeners to take.
Be sure to include a direct link to your iTunes URL. This can be found under the "subscribe" tab in the drop down menu.
Step 3. Create a explainer/walkthrough video
Once you have all your images and corresponding steps on your page with the proper linking, save your page as a draft. Then, go back through each step doing a recorded explainer/walkthrough video.
Add your video to the page, save and voila! You have yourself a show page!! You can see a finished product here and steal the same exact copy.

Bet-at-Home Review
This is a pretty solid sportsbook and sports betting site. It seems to fit very well with people who like to bet on football, as the event coverage for major football events is good. Plenty of different football leagues are available to choose from, so this means dozens of games that can be bet on each day.
Something this site offers that many do not, is an excellent in-play service offering. One of the best around actually, this means that you can bet on games that are already being played. Although of course, odds will be different than they were before kickoff. If you combine the in-play betting with the live console that actually updates game stats and information on the fly, then this becomes a very exciting sports betting site to take a flutter at.
For New Customers
New members who sign up for Bet at Home, instantly qualify for a 50% deposit match bonus of up to a maximum of 50 Euros. The way this works is that when the new member makes their first deposit, they enter the bonus code "FIRST" when they deposit funds for the first time. They will then receive free cash up to 50 Euros.
However, this free cash can't be withdrawn straight away. It needs to be wagered four times over before it can be withdrawn.
Basic Overview
The company that operates this site is part of the Mangas Gaming Group. This is a French company that is also the owner of BetClic, Expekt, and Everest Poker. Something interesting about Mangas Gaming Group is that they are licensed on both sides of the Atlantic. In Malta and Khanawake. For European punters, this means that this is a very safe and secure site to bet at. For Canadian punters, the situation is the same.
The holding company itself is listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange as a joint shareholding venture. Since it was established in 1999 the company now turns over more than 670 million Euros a year and serves over 1.8 million customers across Europe.
Available Events
Currently, the Bet at Home com site makes around 1,000 different event markets available. However, over 75% of these are football/soccer related. It is important to remember that this is a European sports betting company, so the events on offer are focused more on European markets. So don't expect much in the way of basketball and hockey here. Football, rugby, and cricket are much more common. That being said, there is also some ice hockey coverage and also handball and volleyball.
Bets available are quite plentiful and often unique. Not simply bet to win style bets, but also goal predictions, player performance predictions etc. However, it should be said that this site tends to be quite conservative when it comes to odds for some of the more exotic bets, so take care if you decide to wander off into speculative betting land here.
With an over round of around 110%, the odds here are a little lower than average. But this is a site aimed squarely at punters who bet for fun, professional gamblers would probably need to find a site with slightly better odds on offer.
The Bet at Home Website
The website itself is pretty good. Especially the actual homepage. So much detailed information is made available right on the homepage, it acts like a sports betting portal. Up and coming events are listed clearly. Also, top bets are displayed as well as a good selection of in-play options for events currently taking place. Also, there are quick links to last minute bets for events that are just about to start.
The odds ticker for each betting market is very cool. It changes in real time as events take place and results are received. This might seem like a small feature but in reality, it really helps punters gauge which betting markets are currently vibrant.
Top level markets are shown in the menu and for example clicking on soccer will show all of the soccer/football leagues that have events available for betting on. It can take quite some time to locate the exact football league you are looking for as there are so many but overall it works pretty well this way.
Overall, the site is laid out well and it is very easy to navigate. However, a final note here about the Bet at Home mobile app. This app does not give access to the full sports betting features of the site, only a selection of the online casino games.
Customer Support
Customer support here is exceptional. Firstly, there is plenty of educational material and an excellent self-help FAQ section.
Secondly, the actual customer service department is very easy to contact using either email or telephone. There is also a very useful live chat support available 24/7. Most questions are aimed to be answered within 24 hours and often much sooner.
50 Euros Free Every Day
Each day, the site gives away 50 Euros to a "Winner of the day". The punter who receives this free 50 Euros is selected randomly from all people that have won a bet sometime within the previous 24 hours. The selection is made at one minute to midnight. The winner is automatically credited with the 50 Euros.
50% Up To £1000

A formal inaugural meeting was held in December 2014 and identified three community vokunteer members, three Councillors along with a consultant from 'Your Locale' as the Steering Group .
A constitution for the Steering Committee was drafted and agreed in December 2014, and agreement was reached to meet on a monthly basis.

If you've forgotten Valentine's Day, instead of the obligatory perfume, chocolates and flowers which reveal your faux pas why not give these bookish alternatives which offer a thrilling, and sometimes chilling, take on the love story.
Perfume– Perfume Patrick Suskind
The dark tale of a man who becomes obsessed with a quest to bottle the ultimate perfume by capturing the scent of young women. A compelling novel, this has the added kudos of being Kurt Cobain's favourite novel.
Chocolates– Like Water for Chocolate Laura Esquivel
A brilliant work of magic realism, Like Water for Chocolate tells the story of the forbidden love between Tita and Pedro. Kept apart from Pedro, Tita pours her feelings into the food she cooks, which then begins to have very strange effects on those who eat it…
Flowers– Tulip Fever Deborah Moggach
In 17th century Amsterdam, Sophia is trapped in a loveless but comfortable marriage to a much older man when she falls in love with a passionate young artist. An engaging read with art, intrigue and tulipomania. A film is rumoured to be in the works for 2013 so appear cultured by giving this to your beloved before the bandwagon gets rolling!

Here's a quiz: Google received more than 1,900 requests from governments worldwide to remove content from its various services last year. Which country led the planet in this dubious category, with 418 such demands?
China? Iran? Syria?
No. It was democratic, pluralistic, economically vibrant Brazil.
Many Brazilians were mortified last week when a judge detained Google's top official in the nation over a YouTube video that had stirred ire in a mayoral campaign.
But it was no aberration. The struggle over free speech is playing out most vividly today in countries that are America's friends rather than its enemies, in nations where the right of expression is embraced in concept but often rankles in practice, say analysts.
That is particularly true among a group of countries – think India, Thailand and Turkey, as well as Brazil – where fragile democratic institutions are struggling to manage the disruptions caused by increasingly pervasive technology.
"Among our friends in the international sphere . . . there's a huge diversity of opinion about free speech," said Andrew McLaughlin, a former top Google policy executive and White House technology adviser.
Authoritarian regimes have more straightforward ways to block speech they dislike. China has its "Great Firewall" overseen by armies of censors. Iran is building its own Internet. North Korea, meanwhile, has little online access for its citizens.
Democracies, meanwhile, wrestle continuously over where to draw lines when faced with expression they find unacceptable.
When "The Innocence of Muslims" video sparked deadly riots across much of the Islamic world, India and Indonesia asked YouTube to block the video, which it did. Afghanistan barred access to YouTube entirely. A Russian court on Monday ordered the film blocked as well.
Even in the United States, the White House asked the company, which is owned by Google, to review the video to see if it warranted removal. YouTube declined but temporarily blocked access to it in Egypt and Libya, where rioting was especially severe.
Such moves underscore a central conundrum of technology and free expression: It's much easier to spread images and ideas than ever before; it also can be easier for governments to block them, especially when they are centralized on the servers of a handful of private companies.
"The larger trend is worrisome," said Harvard law professor Jonathan Zittrain. "As content is moving onto particular platforms that are owned, it becomes easier [for government officials] to make those phone calls."
The number of removal requests to Google, updated regularly on its online Transparency Report, is only a rough proxy of how aggressive governments are in seeking to block speech.
The second-largest number of requests last year, 279, was from the United States, which has an especially large population of users of Google services.Thailand, meanwhile, had a small number of requests, six, but they concerned 374 YouTube videos; Google removed them all.
Tracking the number and nature of complaints to Google offers insights into a nation's preoccupations.
Thailand outlaws insults to its monarchy and aggressively polices violations. Turkey worries about the reputation of its founder, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. Courts there blocked YouTube between 2007 and 2010 because of what they said were videos insulting Ataturk.
India fears words or images that could spark religious violence. In 2007, mobs of enraged Hindu nationalists ransacked cybercafes outside Mumbai after a forum on Orkut, a social networking site owned by Google, posted denigrating comments about a political group's founder and a 17th-century warrior whom members revered. Last month, India blocked 250 sites to stop the spread of videos showing violent attacks against Muslims, out of concern they could spark reprisals.
Brazil carefully monitors racial issues and has strict electoral laws that limit criticism of candidates in the runup to elections. There are lawsuits in at least 20 of its 26 states seeking deletion of Google content, according to news reports there. The video that drew controversy last week aired paternity claims against a mayoral candidate in Campo Grande, a state capital in Brazil's interior.
Google says it resists restrictions it regards as illegitimate but complies with lawful requests from government officials. The company appealed the ruling in the Campo Grande case but blocked the video after the court rejected the appeal and police arrested Fabio Jose Silva Coelho, the top Google official in Brazil.
"Our goal with YouTube is to offer a community that everyone can enjoy and, at the same time, is a platform for freedom of expression worldwide," Coelho said in a blog post after his brief detention. "This is a great challenge, mainly because a content acceptable in one country may be offensive — or even illegal — in others."
The company declined further comment.
Many Brazilians criticized the government's handling of the case and what they see as elevating the rights of political candidates over the free-speech rights of their constituents.
"It's a step back in terms of freedom of expression, something like we see happening in countries like China," said Monica Rosina, professor at Fundacao Getulio Vargas Law School. "It's bad for the Brazilian image abroad."
Yet the debate itself shows that the idea of free speech has grown deep roots in Brazil, a country that had a military dictatorship as recently as the 1980s.
It also highlights the entrenchment of another democratic ideal — separation of powers. Judges are empowered to do things in Brazil that frustrate officials in other branches of government. Nearly two-thirds of Brazil's requests to Google for content removals last year came from courts, as opposed to police or other members of the executive branch.
Such tensions are familiar in democracies, young or old.
In June 2010, years into Turkey's ban on YouTube, President Abdullah Gul publicly complained, "I cannot approve of Turkey being in the category of countries that bans YouTube [and] prevents access to Google."
He didn't say it at a news conference. With YouTube blocked, he turned to another high-tech platform, typing out his call for free expression in staccato bursts — on Twitter.
Moura reported from Rio de Janeiro.

"Beat the Wall"
This game is a very cool freekick soccer game in 3D! Try to beat the wall of opponent soccer players and find the net in six progressively harder freekick situations on the playfield!
You get three attempts to shoot the ball per round. Try your best because you can score extra points for spectacular goals.
Use the arrow keys to aim your shot but keep an eye on the wind meter! Then move the kicker backward (or forward) to determine your run up and the power of the kick. The further he's away from the ball, the harder the shot will be. Finally adjust the swerve and lift of the shot to send the football to the back of the goals net!

When birds ate us.
Not so long ago, well a few millions years ago, there was a bird that was the absolute master of its world.
Today we consider the eagle to be the ultimate predator and top of the food chain, and rightly so, as there is no other bird or beast that can master it or regularly use it for food.
But between two and sixty million years ago, just before modern man walked upon the earth there was a bird so ferocious it struck fear into most living creatures.
Our ancestors were still hairy apes that walked along the edge of the forests and struck out across the grasslands in search of food. But if you were a hairy ape in South America you had better keep an eye out for a certain bird, as bird-watching in those days would have been a matter of life or death!
There was a whole family of Terror Birds, but the largest, Titanis Waleri, was huge, it stood nearly ten feet tall and weighed in at 330lbs, nearly 24 stone; twice the weight of a normal man. Its beak was enormous and sharp; strong and heavy enough to rip the head off its prey, which don't forget were our ancestors.
This bird did not fly. It grew so big that they didn't need to. They were built very much like the ostrich we know today, but had a ferocious beak that can only be described as somewhere between a giant chisel and a sledge hammer.
Scientists are great; they know loads of stuff. They know for sure that North America and South America were once two different continents and eventually crashed together 3.5 million years ago (if you can call colliding at 2cm a year crashing) to form what we know now; the two big bits of America joined together by that skinny bit in the middle.
Terror Birds crossed over this skinny bit long before they joined up. Scientists know this for a fact because they analysed the distribution of a group of chemicals, known as rare earth elements, within the bones, and they were able determine the age of the North American remains. Then they argue about how such a big flightless bird could cross those oceans; did it hop from island to island or did it float on some raft, just like iguanas and other creatures are known to have done?
It was the age of huge mammals. The dinosaurs had come and gone and mammals quickly filled the gap. There were giant sloths bigger than any modern bear. There were elephants nearly three times the size of the elephants we know today, with downward pointing tusks designed to strip bark of trees. There were giant sabre-toothed cats that would make a Bengal tiger look like a pussy. But most predators at the time were normal dog-like creatures that hunted the normal size herbivores, and these were fair game for the Terror-birds, with the odd hairy ape thrown in vary their diet.
Hairy apes (scientists don't refer to them as humans yet) were leaving the forests and walking upright across the grasslands in search of food. Standing upright had many advantages; you could look over the high grasses in search of prey and hopefully see and evade whatever was trying to eat you. Standing up on your back legs also left your front limbs free to carry tools and weapons, like sticks and stones, which were becoming more and more a part of ape life. These open grasslands had food aplenty for our ape-like ancestors; seeds, roots and an endless supply of meat from grazing animals. But this was the hunting ground of the Terror-birds and no ape stood a chance against this giant ferocious bird which could run at 50mph. Just one peck could split your head wide open.
So next time you are sitting down to a chicken dinner, spare a thought for the Terror-bird, a cousin of your dinner that could have eaten you.

We have supported green open home groups since 2007 when we first became involved in the delivery of Super西甲直播吧s. We were asked to provide secretariat services for the Federation of Open 西甲直播吧 Networks in 2014. 西甲直播吧 initial, pro-bono support helped the Federation to get established. We arranged a free venue for meetings and supported efforts which were successful in attracting seed funding from the Climate Change Collaboration and the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC).
The Federation aims to encourage as many people as possible to improve the energy efficiency of their existing homes. As a result, it works to source sustainable funding for groups whose members can directly demonstrate the benefits of eco-refurbishment. It also aims to bring together research that demonstrates the true value of this form of peer to peer inspiration and learning.
Long-term sources of funding will be required to enable open homes schemes to continue into the future. This represents a significant challenge. The Federation distributed a share of £7,500 from DECC to four member groups to support their open home events in September 2014. So far, the Federation has attracted two-year funding totalling £50,000 to support its aims.
For further information and details on joining, see the .
If you work in the areas of sustainable energy, energy in buildings or low carbon, and feel that your sector could benefit from greater support, please get in touch. We'd very much like to discuss ways in which we could work together to support you.
We can either take the lead in setting up a new body or provide support to an existing association. We can act as principal, so members have a direct relationship with us, or as an agent of a board or committee, delivering benefits against a service level agreement. We can manage the entire activity, or focus on a specialist field such as web communication or technical standards as you wish.
We like to be flexible and we're always happy to work with you to develop the solution which best meets your needs.

The following was written by a dearest elder, someone very close to my heart who choses to remain anonymous.
It was sometime ago, I came across a note written by Hazrat Shaikh Rasheed Ahmad Gangohi رحمة الله عليه , where he had written some points for himself during his course of sulook.
Amongst other things, there was one particularly interesting line :
"Talking to self, in mind,is one of the worst kind of mistakes".
The message struck me because I realised I was not able to stop the non-stop, almost continuous,noise within my my mind. (I am still not able to do that), and secondly, I could not grasp why it was so significant to 'stop talking to self? I decided to discuss it with some friends and try to find out the wisdom behind this advise.
The result of my little research were like this :
Thought is the root of all mental process. They control our life, mould our character, and shape our personality.The body follows the mind. We live in a world of thoughts.
First is thought,then there is the expression of that thought into words and actions (and in the final analysis,we will be made responsible for our actions,good or bad).
If we think rightly and keep our intentions pure, we will speak rightly and act rightly. Speech and action simply follow the thoughts.
This way we can shape our character in any way we like. Better and pious thoughts bring better actions. Every man lives in his own 'thought world' and perceive everything according to his own imagination,his own attitudes.
Friends and enemies,pleasure and pain, Shukr and Sabr,self respect and pride, Jealousy and vice...take any good or bad attribute and we find the roots of it in our mind. We live in a chain of Desire -> Thought -> Action.
A Desire stimulates a Thought which is then embodies into an Action ( good or bad).

Ardfinnan meet Cahir in South Tipp football
Next Sunday can be described as football day in South Tipperary with four Clonmel Oil Senior championship games together with two Clonmel Credit Union Intermediate championship ties down for decision. All senior games will have a 2 p.m. start.
In Ballylooby the clash of Ardfinnan and Cahir could be among the best games of the afternoon. Both sides have something to prove and need to get some points on the board.
When the teams met a year ago Ardfinnan scored a comfortable success but will find it harder on this occasion.
Commercials will have two teams in action in Kilsheelan. They face Swan in senior at 2 p.m. and Grangemockler/Ballyneale at intermediate level at 3-30. Swan disappointed against Clonmel Og in their opener and will have to improve dramatically if they are to gain a surprise senior success. On last year's form little should separate the intermediate sides but Grangemockler might just be good enough to deny Commercials a double.
In Cloneen, Fethard and Mullinahone will be in opposition in senior and C.J. Kickhams club will be hoping that they can repeat a previous success against the Blues when previously in the senior grade.
The final senior contest will be between Kilsheelan/Kilcash and Killenaule in Fethard.
Kilsheelan were disappointing against Moyle Rovers but will improve but the odds favour Killenaule.
In intermediate perhaps the biggest attendance of the afternoon will gather in Clogheen at 3-30 for the clash of Ballylooby/Castlegrace and Ballyporeen. The experienced Ballyporeen will be favoured to take the spoils but much interest will centre on the performance of their opponents on their return to the grade after a long absence.

I love this meal because I usually have all the ingredients on hand and it only takes a couple of minutes to prepare.
Serves: 6
Savory Chicken Stuffing Bake
15 minPrep Time
45 minCook Time
1 hrTotal Time
- 1 (6 ounce) package Chicken flavored Stove Top stuffing mix
- 6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 2 (10.75 ounce) cans Cream of Chicken soup
- 2 teaspoons dried parsley
- 2/3 cup milk
- paprika, to taste
- Prepare stuffing as directed, set aside.
- Place chicken in a 13 x 9 inch greased pan.
- Mix together soup, parsley, and milk. Pour on top of chicken.
- Spread stuffing on top of soup mix and chicken.
- Cover with foil and bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.

We love to serve it with baked potatoes and use the extra soup mix as a gravy to go on top. Another thing I like to do is top each chicken breast with a slice of cheese (cheddar, Swiss, Provolone- they are all delicious!). Some people also said that they like to add sour cream to their soup mixture for an additional twist. 🙂

Fortunately there is a way to convert those old files to a format which can at least be opened.
Libre Office is available as a free download and will open many file types including Claris/Apple works files
Once opened they can then be saved out in another format which can be read by other programs such as Microsoft Word, Excel etc.

An RFE (Real Flight Event) is an event where the real world airline schedules of an airport are followed during the time of event by all the participants..
Many airlines fly inside London Heathrow daily. So, by participating of the event, you'll have the opportunity to see different airlines on the airport.
During the event, all ATC positions possible are staffed to provide ATC service to the pilots.
Every IVAO member can join in the event by making his/her flight. So, the RFE is an opportunity to meet new people from different cultures.

Police stunned by fellow officer's death
Pat Richardson died Sunday after exercising
The Newton Police Department is grieving the loss of one of its lieutenants, Pat Richardson.
Authorities said the 23-year veteran of the department died Sunday from a heart attack while exercising.
Richardson, 48, will be remembered by the Newton community as a veteran and officer. His family will remember him as a husband, father and grandpa. His colleagues will remember him as a partner and friend.
"Disbelief, I didn't believe it at first. It's just unreal," said Newton Officer Randy Camp.
On Sunday, Pat Richardson was outside jogging and felt ill. Someone took him home and his wife brought him to the hospital. From there, he was life-flighted to Iowa Methodist Medical Center in Des Moines.
"There were probably a dozen officers at the hospital hoping for nothing but the best outcome, so we were there for the family and we anticipate being there for the family from here on out," said Newton Chief Jeff Hoebelheinrich.
Richardson was pronounced dead from a heart attack, jarring officers as his physical fitness was said to be the best among the department.
"Shock, complete shock. When I found out I left the room and just needed some alone time," said Patrol Officer Chris Wing.
Before joining the department, Richardson served in the U.S. Army. In his 23 years of duty in Newton, he worked his way from patrol officer to Drug Task Force leader. Then, after 10 years on the team, he earned a college degree, leading to another promotion in 2010 to Lieutenant.
"When we heard the bad news, I mean it hurt every one of us," Hoebelheinrich said. "It is a family. He's absolutely one of our family members. That's how we looked at him and that's how we hope he felt the same way with us."
When officers look back at decades of memories ranging from duties on the force, to simply fishing on weekends, he will always be remembered for his friendship.
"I think most people would say the biggest thing with Pat was he was just a really good friend. Whether he was an officer, lieutenant or whatever he was, you just didn't think about that. You just thought of him as a friend," said Lt. Ron Cook.
Whether it was his calm leadership or genuine care for people he loved, Richardson will never escape the memories of the NPD brotherhood.
"We're not going to forget him, we couldn't," Hoebelheinrich said. "Everybody just loved working with Pat. He's just as nice of guy as you can get."
Officers are currently standing guard at his house in case his family needs anything. An honors funeral will take place later on this week.
Hoebelheinrich told KCCI the department will put up a display in recognition of his service.

As the sun sets over the Gulf of Mexico
at Clearwater Beach, eyes are drawn to the horizon as brilliant shades of pink and lavender stretch across the sky. Sunsets at Clearwater Beach have been voted among the top in Florida, second only to Key West.
After a cold winter, lovers of warm weather set their sights on fragrant breezes and lazy days digging their toes in the sand under a beach umbrella.
In the spring, the sparkling waters on the Florida coast of Clearwater, St. Pete and Tampa beckon with sun-drenched days offering three of the 10 top beaches in the country, numerous attractions and abundant restaurants.
Two hours before sunset at Clearwater Beach, craftsmen and musicians gather for Sunsets at Pier 60, located on the promenade portion of the fishing pier. The festival is held daily year-round, weather permitting.
If you are spending the day at Clearwater Beach, be sure to try Frenchie's for lunch. No need to change from a swimsuit to enjoy a crispy grouper sandwich. The portabella mushroom sandwich is also delicious.
Our favorite restaurant for many years has been Salt Rock Grill in Indian Shores. Located on the waterway where some diners arrive by boat, the restaurant offers superb food in a lively setting with indoor and outdoor seating. When walking into the entrance, don't miss the wine cellar visible under a glass-floor section.
The steaks are excellent, aged on the premises and grilled over an oak-and-citrus wood pit at 1200 F. The menu also offers plenty of seafood and other specialties including duck, veal and lamb, among other choices.
A tasty appetizer for sharing is the Kingston Trio with marinade skewers of grilled filet mignon, chicken and pork tenderloin.
Entrees are served with a house or Caesar salad, fresh bread with herbed olive oil, and a choice of Mediterranean orzo, garlic mashed potatoes or baked potato.
If you are looking for an interesting restaurant in Tampa or St. Pete, try Ceviche, a Spanish restaurant offering flavorful dishes in a Spanish décor. On Tuesday nights, tapas are offered at a special $4 each. This allows for sampling a variety of Spanish specialties. Favorites are artichoke bottoms stuffed with ham and shrimp in a sherry-cream sauce, eggplant with mushrooms, hummus and potatoes tossed with aioli. On the dessert menu, the bread pudding is noteworthy.
The most famous Spanish restaurant in the area is also the oldest. Columbia restaurant first opened in Ybor City in Tampa in 1905. There are now several Columbia restaurants in Florida, including at St. Pete Pier and Clearwater Beach.
The Columbia restaurant at Clearwater Beach offers a pleasant change from beach restaurants with tablecloths and arched windows overlooking the intercoastal waterway. Dine indoors or on the covered porch.
The menu is extensive, but must tries are the 1905 salad prepared tableside with their garlic dressing and the original Cuban sandwich, made with smoked ham, roast pork, Genoa salami, Swiss cheese, dill pickle and mustard on pressed hot Cuban bread. The combo with the salad and sandwich is a great deal.
The landmark Columbia restaurant in Ybor City opened over 100 years ago as a corner café for local cigar workers.
Among the attractions in Tampa is the Florida Aquarium, which displays the scene 2,000 feet below the Gulf of Mexico. View more than 5,000 aquatic plants and animals from Florida.
Busch Gardens in Tampa Bay has one of North America's largest zoos. Spend the day exploring animal habitats and enjoying live entertainment.
Tampa Bay also offers a variety of sports events and Broadway shows at the Performing Arts Center.
At the Clearwater Marine Aquarium, visitors can observe and touch dolphins and sea turtles.
Along with Clearwater Beach, other beaches in Pinellas County include the Fort De Soto Beach, voted the number one beach for the second consecutive year. Also in the top 10 is Sand Key.
In St. Pete, the Pass-A-Grille Beach is located in an undeveloped area.
While there is a wide selection of accommodations along the coast, two upscale hotels in St. Pete are the Don CeSar Beach Resort, long known as the "Pink Palace," and the Vinoy Renaissance Resort and Golf Club. Both offer fine amenities and dining options for a restful getaway.
If you are weary of cold days and heavy jackets, perhaps the warmer temperatures along Florida's gleaming blue coast is the perfect, restorative spring break.
Salt Rock Grill is located at 19325 Gulf Boulevard, Indian Shores. Phone number is 727.593.7625.
In Tampa, Ceviche is located at 1502 S. Howard Ave. and at 10 Beach Dr. in St. Pete.
At Ybor City, the Columbia restaurant is located at 2117 East 7th Ave., in Clearwater at 1241 Gulf Boulevard and at the St. Pete Pier.
The Florida Aquarium is located at 701 Channelside Dr., Tampa. Open 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. daily.
Busch Gardens is located at 3000 East Busch Blvd., Tampa Bay
