Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day is a 1968 animated featurette based on the third, fifth, ninth, and tenth chapters from Winnie-the-Pooh and the second, eighth, and ninth chapters from The House at Pooh Corner by A. A. Milne. The featurette was produced by Walt Disney Productions and released by Buena Vista Distribution Company on December 20, 1968 as a double feature with The Horse in the Gray Flannel Suit. This was the second of the studio's Winnie the Pooh shorts. It was later added as a segment to the 1977 film The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. The music was written by Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman.[1] It was notable for being the last animated short produced by Walt Disney, who died during its production.
Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day won the 1968 Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film. The Academy Award was awarded posthumously to Walt Disney, who died of lung cancer two years before the film's initial release. It is also the only Winnie the Pooh production that won an Academy Award.[2] (Winnie the Pooh and Tigger Too, which was released six years later in 1974, was nominated for the same Academy Award, but lost to Closed Mondays.)
The animated featurette also served as an inspiration for the Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh ride in Walt Disney World in which the rider experiences several scenes from the cartoon, including Pooh's Heffalump and Woozle dream.[3]
The film's plot is based primarily on seven A. A. Milne stories: "In which Eeyore finds the Wolery and Owl moves into it" (Chapter IX from The House at Pooh Corner) "In which Tigger comes to the forest and has breakfast" (Chapter II from The House at Pooh Corner), "In which Pooh & Piglet go hunting and nearly catch a Woozle" (Chapter III of Winnie the Pooh), "In which Piglet does a very grand thing" (Chapter VIII from The House at Pooh Corner), "In which Christopher Robin gives a Pooh Party and we say goodbye" (Chapter X of Winnie-the-Pooh) and "In which Piglet is entirely surrounded by water" (Chapter IX of Winnie-the-Pooh), with elements taken from "In which Piglet meets a Heffalump" (Chapter V from Winnie-the-Pooh: Winnie the Pooh's nightmare of Heffalumps and Woozles). In A. A. Milne's original story, Pooh shows more initiative during the flood, finding his way to Christopher Robin by riding on one of his floating honey pots, which he names The Floating Bear, then having the inspiration of using Christopher Robin's umbrella to carry them both to Piglet's house.[4]
The story begins when Winnie the Pooh is on his way to his thoughtful spot. Today is a very windy day. But as Pooh sits thinking, Gopher pops out of the ground and advises Pooh to leave the spot because of it being "Winds-day". Pooh having misunderstood his warning goes across the Hundred Acre Wood to wish everyone a happy Winds-day. Pooh first goes to his friend Piglet who lives in a beech tree. Piglet initially came out to rake leaves but the wind proves too strong for him to handle. Piglet is nearly blown away but Pooh quickly hangs on to him by his scarf, like a kite on a string. As Pooh struggles to keep a hold of the scarf he passes by Kanga and Roo, wishing them both a happy Winds-day; Eeyore, whose stick house Pooh breaks as he passes; and finally Rabbit, who Pooh inadvertently helps harvest the carrots in his vegetable garden as he slides by.
The blustery wind finally blows Pooh and Piglet over to Owl's treehouse, where he invites them in. Pooh wishes Owl a happy Winds-day, as he has everyone else, but Owl informs them that the wind is due to "a mild spring zephyr" rather than to a particular holiday. While Owl begins telling Pooh and Piglet stories of adventures his relatives had, the strong wind rocks his house back and forth causing it to sway and eventually the tree and house both collapse. Owl blames Pooh at first but Pooh says he did not do it. Christopher Robin and the others come and examine the wrecked house and since it cannot be repaired, Eeyore volunteers to seek out a new house for Owl, who proceeds to tell the others more stories of his relatives for quite some time; talking from page 41 to page 62.
Meanwhile, on page 62, as night falls, the wind is still blowing and Pooh is kept awake by growling and scratching noise and he opens his door for the visitor outside. Tigger emerges from outside, rolling over Pooh and sitting on him. Tigger introduces himself with his signature song ("The Wonderful Thing About Tiggers") and informs Pooh that he has come looking for something to eat. He then decides to try some of Pooh's honey but after some tastes he gets disgusted and decides that "Tiggers don't like honey". Before leaving Pooh's house, Tigger tells him that there are Heffalumps and Woozles in the forest that steal honey. Pooh, frightened by Tigger's tale, stays up to guard his honey, but eventually falls fast asleep. As he is sleeping, he has a nightmare about Heffalumps and Woozles stealing his honey and chasing him around (which includes four singing honey pots, a balloon-like Heffalump, a honey pot with legs, jack-in-the-box Woozles, two dancing Heffalumps, a bee Heffalump, a Heffaump cannon, hot air balloons resembling Heffalump heads with honey pots as baskets, and a giant watering can with a face) until he wakes up during a flood-inducing rainfall.
Later, Piglet is washed away from his home. He writes a bottle-note for help just before the waters carry him off, sitting on a chair. Pooh manages to reach higher ground with only ten honey pots. However, as he is eating some of the honey the rising waters carry him away. Kanga, Roo, Rabbit and Tigger all gather at Christopher Robin's house, which is situated on the highest ground, while Eeyore continues house hunting for Owl. Roo finds Piglet's bottle, and Owl flies off to tell Piglet that help is on the way.
Owl manages to reach Piglet and Pooh, but before he can inform them of the impending rescue (and telling them another one of his boring stories) a waterfall threatens to carry them all over the side. Pooh switches places with Piglet as they take the plunge, and luckily for them the waterfall washes them right into Christopher Robin's yard. Thinking that Pooh had rescued Piglet, Christopher Robin decides to throw a party celebrating Pooh's heroic deed. During the party, Eeyore announces that he has found a new home for Owl. He leads everyone over to his discovery, which, known to everyone except for Owl and Eeyore, is Piglet's beech tree. Owl is very impressed with the house, but before anyone can tell him who the home belongs to, Piglet decides that Owl should have the house. Pooh decides to allow Piglet to move into his home and, very impressed by his selflessness, asks Christopher Robin to make the hero party for two instead of one.

Shortly before Walt Disney's death in December 1966, the animation department was finishing work on The Jungle Book and preparing for The Aristocats. In late summer 1967, before The Aristocats went into production, it was decided to go ahead with a featurette-length sequel to Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree.[5] Because The Honey Tree was popular with American audiences, it was decided Blustery Day would be the first animation project without Walt. Under the circumstances, "Nine Old Men" animators Frank Thomas, Ollie Johnston, and Milt Kahl were brought onto the project. Wolfgang Reitherman remained as director, but he decided to feel more faithful to the source material.[6]
During a story meeting for the short, Walt Disney considered Wally Boag to be perfect for the role of Tigger.[7] However, after Walt's death, Boag's performance of the character was considered to be "too zany for a children's film", and he was replaced by ventriloquist Paul Winchell.[7] Following a British backlash to The Honey Tree led by film critic Felix Barker, Piglet was added to the short.[8] For the part, Walt had heard John Fiedler's voice on television and selected him to voice the character. Although Fiedler's natural speaking voice was higher than most men's, he still had to raise it considerably to achieve the character's high pitch.[9]
Home video[edit]
The film was released on VHS and Betamax in 1986. It was re-released in 1990, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1997, and was also re-released again on July 11, 2000 as part of the Storybook Classics Collection. This short also shows up as a bonus feature on the 2006 DVD release of Pooh's Grand Adventure: The Search for Christopher Robin.[10]
It was also released on the Super 8mm film format by Derann in the early 2000s, making it one of the company's final and rarest films released, with only twelve copies made.[11]

Emma Roberts advises wearing a "wine lip" during the festive season.
The actress loves Christmas time because all the parties mean she can really experiment with her beauty look. This year she is focusing on her mouth and will be rocking a series of bold reds on her pout.
"For the holidays, I really want to try out a really strong lip. Lots of mascara, with a clean lid, then one of the Neutrogena Moisture Smooth Color Sticks. Rich Raisin is this great wine colour and it's really cute for the holidays," she told BeautyHigh.com. "The lip is something that lasts through the night, and you won't have to keep reapplying eyeliner at one o'clock if you're wearing lipstick instead."
As far as cosmetics tips go, Emma has a few. She wholeheartedly subscribes to the notion that women should play up their lips or eyes, never both. The 22-year-old star is also careful to look after her skin, no matter how late she gets in at night.
"The best tip I know is to take off make-up after work. I work 12-15 hour days on set and it can definitely get wearing, so I use [wipes] and take off my make-up right when I get home and get into bed. As much as I'm exhausted, even if I get home at 2 am, I still drag myself out of bed to clean my face," she explained.
While she always puts skincare first, there are other aspects of her beauty routine Emma isn't so dedicated to. That is why she is planning some health and fitness related New Year's resolutions for when 2014 rolls around.
"I started my resolution to really start working out more, I'm doing more yoga for my mind, and having a more positive attitude into my life. Working on [TV show] American Horror Story has been hectic," she explained.

Good nutrition is so vital to our well being, and nothing starts the day better than a nutritious breakfast. Car campers tend to take breakfast very seriously; drive through any established campground around breakfast time and your sense of smell will be positive assaulted by the scent of sizzling sausage and bacon and freshly brewed coffee. Pancakes with syrup and scrambled eggs round out the feast.
On the trail, however, breakfast tends to be Boring with a capital B. Oatmeal. Oatmeal with blueberries. Oatmeal with cinnamon and raisins. Cream of wheat. Blah, blah, blah. And I am sure that backpackers need waaayyy more nutritious calories than the car camping bunch.
|Paleo Bread; Wheat free, made with Nut Flour
One food I am experimenting with is pancakes and syrup. A very easy way to have pancakes on the trail is to simply dehydrate some cut up homemade pancakes, rehydrate in a zip lock with some boiling water, and add a pouch of syrup. Yummy and almost like homemade. But I liken it to junk food. Empty calories with no nutrition.
Since I am swearing off traditional flour-based foods, I had to find another option. I found this bread recipe from Elana's Pantry and realized it would form the basis for some great healthier trail meals. I followed the recipe and made the most delicious nut-flour bread ever.
|Paleo Bread Crackers
The rest is easy! Just toss some crackers in a quart-sized freezer zip lock bag and add a Tablespoon or two of real maple sugar. When in camp, add a very scant amount of boiling water to the bag and cozy. Within a few minutes you can enjoy something that is very similar to SAD dried pancakes, but without the guilt!
Happy Hiking!

What's the best recipe for making a world traveler feel at home in his Columbus condo?
A little bit of East Coast, a little bit of West—from a far-out fridge to a splash of NYC subway vibes, what you get is a pan-American pad right here in the capital city. Challenging, in this case, was the notion that Blake Compton and his Compton Construction team were carrying out the orders of their client while he maintained his residence in Santa Cruz, California. Achieving the final vision required some efforts beyond your typical project—including some less-than-efficient trips down the highway to IKEA.
In the end, though, a modern and sleek-yet-simple design proves that condo living doesn't have to sacrifice style for spaciousness.
Trending Tile:
People are trying to declutter and simplify their lives nowadays and one way to do that is to reduce the amount of different materials used throughout your home. White subway tile is a product that has definitely been used a lot throughout the last decade. It will continue to be a highly utilized product for its ability to complement the finishes around it, which is why it can work in both the bathroom and the kitchen.
First Impressions:
The focus was to make an inviting space that had the amenities visible throughout and intentionally aligned their aesthetic to complement the overall layout.
Cool Center:
The marquee piece of the dining room and kitchen is the orange fridge, it glares at you and is definitely a polarizing piece. It was always intended to be the focal point of color in those two rooms; we developed a natural palette otherwise and wanted the fridge to be the star.
Seamless Theme:
By focusing on construction finishes that are neutral, simple, and complementary to one another, you can allow your fixtures and furniture to bring the pop and crackle that define your space. From the couch, rug, and coffee table to the fridge, dishes, and dishcloths, these items exclaim what space they are a part of and provide pleasing visual distractions, while not feeling cluttered.
Working with an out-of-town owner who travels across the world made it difficult to follow a set schedule, as we would have meetings once or twice a month at best. There were moments where we would have to stop work and await approval before continuing progress. We kept our morale up by focusing on the finish details every step of the way and making sure we were proud with the small stuff. The most difficult part was trying to source the curtains. The owner wanted a specific fabric from Ikea and at the time, Cincinnati was the only Ikea we could go to… for some reason they didn't have an exact system on how much fabric they had at any given time so we would have to drive to Cincinnati and buy whatever they had and wait until they got a new shipment in. It took a few months to finish everything because of that. Thankfully, readers won't have to deal with that now that Columbus has its own Ikea!
The fridge is from Big Chill; you can find them online to buy all sorts of colorful kitchen appliances. The White oak is from Crow Works, a company out of Killbuck, Ohio. They can provide you raw material or pre-designed chairs, stools, and furniture—one of the top places for material used in our projects around Columbus. The kitchen cabinetry and countertop was actually from Ikea!

I did see something that has been happening since the beginning of the problem: the Sound window with the four tabs, Playback, Recording, Sounds, and Communications, never lists the headphones or microphone. That may be why the Realtek HD Audio Manager keeps dropping them and picking them back up again.

Desktop Boards — Troubleshooting audio issues
Note that I have noticed that the system Sound window does not pick up the headphones or microphone when they are plugged in, which may be why the Realtek HD Audio Manager keeps dropping them and picking them back up again. When I un-installed the Realtek drivers, Microsoft installed something on boot which *did* see my headphones and microphone - but no sound out the jacks.

Some quick info before i have time to look further
I see you nVidia graphics card has HD audio (it has an HDMI port) if that could suit your needs. But the HD device on nVidia is running the MS generic HD driver. Install the nVidia HD audio driver for your graphics card.
Everything looks OK when Realtek is installed. But I find it odd that when uninstalled, the Realtek devices disappear (don't seem to be detected). I'd still expect it to (probably) be able to run with the generic MS audio driver and be listed under Sound, video with a generic sounding name like "High Definition Audio Device" or you see a device under Other category with a yellow icon. With MS generic audio, we should still be able to hear sound when Realtek uninstalled. Will follow up later with instructions on we might "coerce" those chips to be found when Realtek uninstalled (so would then also be interesting to see how jacks work when no Realtek driver)

Sorry for double post, but here's an example of what I'm talking about using my own PC which has a webcam, onboard audio and addon nVidia graphics w/HDMI. When I uninstall the Soundmax driver the HD audio device is still detected and listed in DevMgr
It would be interesting to test the jacks when Realtek is uninstalled. But will have to follow up later

The speaker jack has no sound with the Microsoft driver, either. Neither does the headphone jack.
My speakers are truly ancient. I bought them off the shelf at Fry's in the L.A. area sometime in the late 1980's. They are Altec Lansing ACS51 Computer Speaker System "with Phantom Bass." They are the oldest component still in use. I did try them on my cell phone yesterday and they played a YouTube video about a Pontiac Fiero with a supercharged 383 cid (6.3 liter) V8, replete with exhaust sounds that fully exercised the "Phantom Bass." That cringe-worthy performance left no doubt about the performance of the speakers, although I do have my doubts as to the performance of the Fiero. But I have no way to use an HDMI output without constructing an all-new project. If my wife ever figures out that I can operate our TV with my computer, I am doomed; the TV is right through a wall and a simple feed-through would do it, probably with ordinary three-foot cables. The monitor is operated through a KVM switch that uses VGA connectors, and I use a DVI to VGA converter at the video card. I need the analog speaker jack output.
I suspect that the extra High Definition Audio Device is the HDMI output driver. There are four of them listed in the Sound window playback list, all marked not-plugged-in, along with Realtek digital output, electrical and optical, which have bar charts next to them. Speakers is checked and marked as Default, and when I run the speaker test the bar chart moves on the Speakers output but not on the digital outputs.
I just turned the speaker volume all the way up, which is enough gain to hear the electrical noise of the power supply ripple at a medium level, say, 50-60 dBa. It's a high whine punctuated by a busy modulation and other lower-frequency noise that seems to be vaguely in time with the blinking of the lights on my FIOS modem/router next to the right speaker. I can actually hear the speaker test sounds, very faintly, below the electrical noise!
Plugging in the headphone jack brings up the RealTek HD Audio Manager and a message window that tells me that I have plugged in a headphone. The electrical noise in the speakers doesn't change. And, the headphones don't appear as a Playback device, either. But I can no longer hear the speaker test sounds under the electrical noise. Unplugging the headphones, I get pop-ups from Windows and from the Audio Manager that it is unplugged, and once again I can hear, faintly, the speaker test sounds under the electrical noise.
This time I did NOT get the endless loop of the Audio Manager dropping the headphones and picking them up again.
Something is working in there. But the speaker jack output driver isn't enabled because all I can hear is the background noise from a highly amplified non-enabled output; at a reasonable volume setting it is inaudible. And, most of the time, the Audio Manager keeps dropping the headphones and picking them up again. And, the Sound window output devices do not pick up the headphones; with the Microsoft drivers the headphones are added to the list, even though no sound is output to the headphone jack, either.

At this point, i think is probably best and easiest to plan on using the new sound card you ordered.
That said, I have a theory. May or may not be true but seems to fit the scenarios you describe. The Realtek audio chip is probably flaking (could also be controller or HD Audio bus - but i'd guess the audio device)
> Windows talks to the audio controller
> The controller talks to the Realtek audio chip and,
> Your jacks connect to and are controlled by the realtek audio device
Your jacks appear when the Realtek chip is working and detected. When it falls "offline" Windows can no longer see them as the end-to-end comm path is broken.
Use DevManView to check. (You;ll need to monitor it and check for yourself in real-time).
Here's what to do/look for. Run DevManView. We only care about two columns: Device Instance ID and Connected.https://www.sevenforums.com/images/smilies/sleepy.gif
Device names can change. The constant that uniquely identifies each chip is Device Instance ID. Click the column header to sort by ID. Now scroll down to find IDs that start with HDAUDIO\.
Windows can only see the jacks IF {the Realtek chip appears in DevManView} AND {Connected=Yes}
The jacks won't appear if either {the Realtek chip no longer appears in DevManView} OR {it's there but Connected=No}
As you watch the Realtek HDAUDIO ID, you'll need hit F5 to refresh the data to see any change when jacks appear and go
p.s. When you uninstalled Realtek and rebooted, what you saw may have been Windows, re-detecting the audio chip and then install the generic audio driver (its only choice since Realtek was gone). But the jacks still fall online/offline as chip detection works/fails

well motorfingers; I do agree with what you mentioned as well; you should not need the driver for windows to detect the device; because as long as the device is plug n play; then yes windows should detect it and install a different form of driver per say; but one which wont give it full functionality; but enough function to at least give you some sort of indication that it is partially working. And yes the audio controller does play a part in this as well.

I too have a motherboard with realtek on-board audio; but I dont use the onboard audio; as i had a better sound setup with the sound blaster pci express titanium sound card i have in my system. So while yes i could have just gone with the onboard audo; why bother when the sound blaster is better imo.

The post office has the card now, according to the tracking. Last time they had a computer part in town, they shipped it to Cape May before delivering it, presumably for the view, and it arrived two days late, with the tracking scan "down the shore" deleted from the tracking record.
I have an appointment and will come back here in an hour or two and complete the checks with DevManView. I did use the DVD that came with the video card (Gigabyte GEForce 660) and got the NVIDIA sound driver. I have thee now, one from the Logitech C920 webcam with microphone, one for NVIDIA, and the RealTek. There is a fourth driver that I see in most people's screen shots that is not there. I do recall that before I re-installed Windows that there were four in my system too.
I've had the feeling for some time that it was the sound card hardware. It's full Azelia spec with all the exorbitant bandwidth and word length available, and my stop-gap sound card is not top-of-the-line. I'll look into RMA-ing my motherboard if we do come to that conclusion firmly enough to convince ASUS USA. IMHO, a bad ASUS motherboard is pretty rare, the recent demise of my aged DSGC-DW notwithstanding. It's probably a chip on the board somewhere. I would rather find that and change it than RMA the motherboard, if it is socketed.

It's become almost a tradition now for Hollywood-blockbuster director Michael Bay to direct the annual Victoria's Secret Holiday advertisements. Since 2009, Bay has brought his bigger-than-nature, action-packed style to a fashion industry saturated with classical, glamorous imagery.
His past two advertisements with VS featured explosions, helicopters, deluxe cars, motor bikes, grandiose sets, hard rock soundtracks and a whole arsenal of action-movie features that actually brought more than just excessive sexiness to ads that would normally be redundant.
This year, Victoria's Secret decided to ditch their previous slogan "One gift, a thousand fantasies", and coincidentally, Bay also ditched the Transformers style and decided to go for a fashion ad, period.
Sure, the cinematography/lighting/photography is on point, the girls are lovely (screw monogamy, I'll drive to Vegas right now and marry both Candice and Erin) and the sets are gorgeous, but so are they in any lingerie/perfume/haute-couture advertisement you see everyday on TV. The mood is also awfully slow, and if you're going to release an extended 90-second version of your commercial, you better give your viewers something to keep their ADD-attention other than hot chicks in underwear (some will say that this is definitely enough, and I'm not going to argue with them honestly…).
Victoria's Secret and Michael Bay had created a unique formula to completely separate them from other competitive brands, and they've made the mistake to fall right back in the same path as everyone else. You know what they say, if it ain't broke, then don't try to fix it…

41 At this the Jews there began to grumble about him because he said, 'I am the bread that came down from heaven.' 42 They said, 'Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How can he now say, "I came down from heaven"?'
43 'Stop grumbling among yourselves,' Jesus answered. 44 'No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them, and I will raise them up at the last day. 45 It is written in the Prophets: "They will all be taught by God."[a] Everyone who has heard the Father and learned from him comes to me. 46 No one has seen the Father except the one who is from God; only he has seen the Father. 47 Very truly I tell you, the one who believes has eternal life. 48 I am the bread of life. 49 Your ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness, yet they died. 50 But here is the bread that comes down from heaven, which anyone may eat and not die. 51 I am the living bread that came down from heaven.

Erin Cooney aka Nire is a beat maker from Queens. I've listened to her music since 2007, but this miss has been around for more than that. She's one of the original MOB girls and like she said on Vapors Mag issue 36 2006, she's "always had MMMMAAAAADDDD STYYLEEEEE". Check out her Myspace page that has some of my fav songs.
Believe me, SHE HAS some serious style. You can see her wearing some amazing jewelry on some of the new posters she's been promoting. Indulging in big-ass-two-fingered-statement-making-rings is a little obsession of mine ( apart from all the other little obsessions I have). The rings I'm talking about that Nire exhibits on her hand are from her new line called Je M'aime, who she's made a mixtape aaaand you can download free. Her NY based accessories store whose debut line consists of two and three finger rings with designs are as unique as they are glamorous. All made of 24-karat vermeil. OH YES... the designs are mad original and even thought the price is a bit out of my range it's deff worth the cost.

* FTSE 100 up 0.1 pct
* Upgrades boost Smith & Nephew, Next
* Forex curbs Diageo sales growth
* Pound still a pain
By Kit Rees
LONDON, Jan 25 (Reuters) - The UK's top share index crept higher on Thursday as analysts pondered company updates while a stronger pound kept the FTSE's progress in check.
The blue chip FTSE 100 index was up 0.1 percent at 7,653.78 points by 0921 GMT.
A resurgent pound has put pressure on the FTSE 100, which slid to a 3-week low in the previous session. Sterling was up slightly on the day, having hit its highest level since Britain's June 2016 Brexit referendum on Wednesday.
The blue chip index's heavy weighting in large, dollar-earning companies gave it a boost following sterling's plunge after the Brexit vote.
"A good marker is if we hold above 1.40 in cable, then that could be the line in the sand between more durable strength and something that's going to be consistently an issue for the big multinationals listed in the UK who have lots of foreign earnings," Jasper Lawler, head of research at London Capital Group, said, referring to the sterling/dollar exchange rate.
Shares in heavyweight consumer staple Diageo rose 1.1 percent on the back of its half-year figures, which showed that half-year sales increased by 1.7 percent.
While Diageo's sales growth was hampered by foreign exchange rates, analysts at Raymond James said they expected this to be partially offset by a lower tax rate. Diageo earns around 77 percent of its revenues outside of Europe, according to Thomson Reuters data for 2017.
Changes in broker ratings on stocks were the main driver behind individual moves on the FTSE, as analysts mulled over recent company updates.
Shares in medical technology firm Smith & Nephew were the biggest gainers, up nearly 4 percent after JPMorgan raised its view on the stock to "overweight" from "neutral".
JPMorgan analysts said a pull-back in the firm's shares offered a compelling entry point, highlighting forex and tax rates as two important tailwinds for Smith & Nephew.
Shares in retailer Next also advanced, up 1.9 percent after RBC raised its rating on the stock to "outperform" from "sector perform", citing improved sales outlook and recent sterling strength versus the dollar.
However, shares in software firm Sage Group declined a further 1.4 percent following Wednesday's disappointing figures for revenue growth in the first quarter.
Earnings were front and centre of the action among British mid caps, which declined 0.3 percent.
Kier Group jumped 12.8 percent following an upbeat trading statement, while UK lender Close Brothers rose 4.3 percent after saying that it expected to see a rise in first-half profit.
Meanwhile Renishaw dropped 10.6 percent after giving a half-year update.

The Open tees off an important year for business and golf at Liverpool launch event
The sporting and international media spotlight will shine on the Liverpool City Region next July when one of the world's most prestigious events returns to the Lancashire coast.
Speaking at an event to welcome The 146th Open to Royal Birkdale, Max Steinberg, Chief Executive, Liverpool Vision said, "The Open presents an exceptional opportunity to show our world-class assets to a worldwide audience.
"The Open will bring substantial benefits to our hugely successful visitor economy. Our hotels will be booked months in advance, restaurants and bars will be busier than ever. This is an opportunity for our business community to use one of the world's biggest events to showcase this amazing place we live and work in. If there was ever a time to invite a special client from elsewhere in the UK or from abroad, July 2017 is the time to do it."
Over 200,000 spectators are expected to flock to the region to watch the world's best players compete to become Champion Golfer of the Year and lift the iconic Claret Jug trophy from July 16-23. The Open brought £75 million to the local economy when it was held at Royal Liverpool on the Wirral and a similar impact is expected when Royal Birkdale hosts The Open for the tenth time this summer.
Andy Snell, Director, International Trade and Commercial Services, Liverpool and Sefton Chamber of Commerce also spoke of the importance of The Open to the region stating the chamber would "build upon our relationship with The R&A, to show a city that works together with its private sector and is proud to host The Open both this time and when it returns to 'England's Golf Coast' over and over again in the future."
Speaking about his experience as a host, Andy said, "After the International Festival for Business 2014 held in Liverpool, VIP Delegates forged strong and profitable relationships as our guests at The Open. Businesses from Saudi Arabia, Europe and USA spent quality time and built relationships with counterparts from Liverpool and Wirral that are bearing fruit now. One particular commercial partnership with an export licensing firm improved our revenues by 60% on that product line."
Michael Wells, Director – Championship Staging at The R&A addressed the audience of business leaders from throughout the region at the welcome event.
"The Open has a truly global appeal with a potential household reach of over 500 million homes worldwide. It is looked at online by more than 7 million unique visitors, with over 120 million impressions on social media. Fans from over 80 countries travel to The Open each year.
"Spectators visiting Scotland for The Open at Royal Troon spent over £5 million on accommodation and double that amount in bars, restaurants and shops during an average three-night stay. In the single week of the Championship, in 2016, total spending in the economy increased by £64 million and with millions watching on television around the world the benefit for future golf tourism is considerable."
Chris Daykin, Hospitality Sales Manager at The Open Hospitality spoke about the benefits of hosting a corporate event at The Open, "It offers a level of prestige and grandeur which is so important when trying to make sure you attract the right level of clientele. Tailoring an event to your client is also key and with golf still one of the most common hobbies amongst CEO's and other senior level executives, often being referred to as the 'sport of business', it means that The Open is likely to appeal to a good number of your most valued customers.
"When you bring your clients to The Open it provides the opportunity to spend a minimum of 10 hours with them in a relaxed and flexible environment whilst witnessing one of the greatest sporting events on earth, giving you plenty of time to develop those key relationships on a personal level."
Businesses looking to entertain valued clients and other guests are urged to book through official channels which are available on TheOpen.com/Hospitality. Enhanced experiences that are available at Royal Birkdale from 19 – 23 July 2017 include The Claret Jug Pavilion, the most exclusive experience for intimate gatherings on Royal Birkdale's 1st tee to the fun, festival atmosphere of The Champions Club boasting a large private garden, outdoor LED screen and made-to-order British classic dishes. A variety of other corporate and private dining experiences are also available including on-course suites offering a private space for larger groups to build their custom day at The 146th Open.
For further details about hosting corporate events at The Open click here, or contact firstname.lastname@example.com or +44 (0)844 371 0883

I broke old the old TAD gear tacticool-guy grey shell for a little update on the 'Ranger' trouser from Arktis that I originally featured some time ago. I'm happy to report the 1 main gripe (kneepad fitment) has been fixed.
Monthly Archives: April 2016
Never Go Full Tactical
Don't Underestimate Moving Air
My brother wanted a high quality shell jacket, something that wasn't crazily expensive but came from a reputable brand, would block the chilling effects of the wind and provide moderate protection from rain without lacking breathability and still remaining packable. With a fairly low-key look that doesn't excessively scream tactical, he opted for this layer piece by FirstSpear.
Kit Slut 4 Lyf
Creating even more of a back-log of kit for me to write about. Definitely some extremely frivolous purchases here in the apparel department, but I can't lie I am very much going down the 'collector' route on that stuff as time goes on.
Future purchases will include a lot more parts to sort out RIFs that are currently sat unusable and to complete LBE pieces that are currently hung up in a similarly of-no-use state (or indeed, missing entirely due to recent changes in my criteria for belts and plate carriers). But the past few months I decided to 'treat myself' to some stuff I just wanted because it was cool rather than practical for work or useful as potential subject matter for a video.
The stock of patches for the grand opening of the REMF Tac patch store v.2 is building gradually, though unfortunately it'll still be a good while yet before it goes up. I want to make very sure that the shop front is up to a solid, professional looking standard before I 'open up' and at this point I'm still not even sure how to begin doing that in the way I want, let alone actually putting the wheels in motion. Rest assured however that if you like patches, you're sure to find something you like once I do cut the internet ribbon with the comedy scissors.
I'll not list out everything here at this juncture since everything will be posted here, on Facebook and/or on Instagram at some point in the future.
Leap of Faith
Due to the sheer dreadfulness of my issued Bates boots and a rapidly looming training course, I needed a comfortable set of footwear in 'looks like issued' brown and I needed it fast. Boots are one of the few gear items I avoid importing from the US due to the sizing conversion charts seeming to vary and the potential costs and problems that returning/exchanging them would incur. Finding a (hopefully) high quality pair of boots in the right colour that would be suitable for hot climates and available here in the UK for immediate dispatch proved a no-go, so I looked a little further afield to Europe and placed my first ever order through LEAF Gear.
There's no mincing words here, their prices are pretty steep. But, when you're stocking Crye, Arc'teryx, Ops-Core, Carinthia, S&S etc in the EU (the Netherlands in this case) your prices are going to be pretty steep, that is the nature of the beast. I felt the international shipping cost was maybe a tad questionable, but I can only presume it was a flat rate and as I'll explain shortly, it certainly did not disappoint.
If you're in the service they do offer military discount and I had no dramas getting that set-up quickly, so that's something to bear in mind. What you're paying for with LEAF Gear however is the product availability/proximity (if you're somewhere in Europe of course) and customer service. I spoke to a couple of their guys on the phone and I can certainly say their English was literally infinitely better than my Dutch. They were extremely polite and professional beyond any necessity. I've chatted to a bunch of absolutely superb folks at companies like FirstSpear, Beyond and BCM over the phone before, but the staff at LEAF might have just about had them all pipped. No negative reflection on any of those others though, far from it.
Having placed my order on Wednesday afternoon, my purchase had made it's way from Amsterdam, via a sorting office in Barking, to Oxfordshire, arrived at the camp post room, been picked up by the duty lad and plonked on to my table in the weapon servicing bay come 11am Friday morning; which was exactly when I needed them to arrive by.
The boots are supremely light and the lacing system is so much quicker than any issued 8″ boot with a normal lacing system (which always includes locks/cleats) it's astounding. However the finishing at the joints is frankly shoddy for a boot of this price. I'd doubt you'd catch LOWA letting a boot in this state go out to retail and I really wish said company produced a brown, hot weather (non gore-tex) boot with quick lacing that I could've gotten hold of, because they're one of the few military shoeing brands I have confidence in at this point. I've posted before about 2 pairs of Salomons I've had fail in frankly comical fashion, so this is last chance saloon for these guys as far as I'm concerned. 3 strikes and you're out.
The lacing system certainly is fast which is what I was looking for given the intended use, but I've already found the rubber-like plastic piece that encompasses the join where the ends of the lace meet isn't anchored in place in any fashion and the lacing tends to not tighten symmetrically, meaning said cover piece slips off the lace join easily. I'm hoping with a little practice and technique I can overcome this, but we'll just have to see how they get on after a longer period of consistent usage.

This granola is awesome and very easy to make! I love it with Greek yogurt or just on its own as a snack!
I found the original recipe from Running to the Kitchen; I substituted oatmeal for the pepitas {pumpkin seeds} and used an extra 1/2 cup walnuts in place of 1/2 cup the pecans. Enjoy!
-3/4 cup sliced or slivered almonds
-1/2 cup oatmeal {I used old fashioned, its less processed}
-1 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped
-1/2 cup shredded or flaked coconut
-2 tbsp chia seeds {optional, if you don't have them you can leave them out}
-3 large dried dates, chopped {about 2-3 tbsp chopped dried dates or you could use raisins or maybe even dried cranberries}
-1 tbsp pumpkin pie spice
-1 tsp cinnamon
-1/4 tsp ground cloves
-pinch of salt
-3 tbsp melted coconut oil {you could probably substitute butter or even peanut or other nut butter, although it may change the flavor}
-2 tbsp applesauce {you could add an extra 2 tbsp pumpkin puree as a substitute}
-1/2 cup pumpkin puree
-1/4 cup maple syrup {or honey}
-1 tsp vanilla
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment, foil or my favorite... a silpat.
2. In a large bowl combine all dry ingredients and mix well.3. In a small bowl, combine all wet ingredients. Mix well.
4. Add wet mixture to dry mixture and stir until thoroughly combined.
5. Pour mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread into an even layer.
6. Bake for 40 minutes, stir occasionally.7. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely, about 20-30 minutes.
8. Transfer and store in an airtight container.
As I said, I love this with Greek yogurt! I also like to add some fresh pumpkin butter and/or honey for an extra treat.
I'm sure it would also be great over ice cream. But it really is awesome by itself!

HUNSLET HAWKS bowed out of the Ladbrokes Challenge Cup with pride intact yesterday.
Super League visitors Salford Red Devils were too good and 50-14 was a fair reflection of the fifth round tie, but Hawks – from League One – had a real go.
Trailing 32-8 at the break, they competed with Salford – who admittedly got sloppy – after that and lost the second half only 18-6.
Oldham's win at Hull KR a day earlier did Hunslet no favours. It ensured Salford, who fielded a strong line-up, were fully focused from the start and three tries in the opening nine minutes meant there was never any prospect of an upset.
But some Hawks players are young enough to have Super League aspirations and several of them did catch the eye.
Ex-Leeds academy full-back Jimmy Watson made two try-saving tackles during Salford's opening burst of scoring and halves Danny Thomas and Danny Ansell also had good moments.
Hunslet could not match the full-timers physically, but they had lots of enthusiasm, highlighted when George Flanagan, Ansell and Ben Crane ganged up to shove Jake Bibby into touch.
Hawks have two good hookers and Jake Normington and Mufaro Mvududu also showed up well.
Hunslet scored two tries in the first period. Jack Lee went over from acting-half on 21 minutes and replacement hooker George Flanagan threw a huge dummy to do likewise just before the break.
The hosts' third try came 12 minutes from time when James Duckworth out-jumped Bibby to collect Ansell's excellent cross-kick.
The tries were unconverted, but Ansell kicked a penalty with six minutes left.
There were other chances. Flanagan and Mufaro Mvududu both got over the line, but were held up in the second half.
Duckworth intercepted a pass by Matt Sarsfield to cross, but that was on the free play after Michael Haley's knock-on and Thomas touched down from Flanagan's kick to the in-goal, but Robert Lui had grounded the ball first.
Thomas also had an opportunity when he dashed clear from a brilliant off-load by Lewis Reed, but his wild off-load near the line went to Neal Evalds.
Hunslet were caught napping by Salford's fast start and trailed 16-0 early on to tries by Ryan Lannon, Bibby and Josh Griffin.
Salford added another three touchdowns before the break. Griffin scored his second, Josh Wood stepped through for a superb solo score and Lui also went over.
The full-time side eased up after the break, but Lui added his second 10 minutes into the second half, Bibby also crossed and Griffin completed his hat-trick in the final moments, which was pretty harsh on Hunslet.
Salford Red Devils have separate kickers for the left and right sides of the field. Michael Dobson landed three conversions and Gareth O'Brien converted four.
Hunslet Hawks: Watson, Duckworth, Faal, Mvududu, Barnett, Thomas, Ansell, Haley, Lee, Reed, Crane, Normington, Mackay. Subs Flanagan. Bell, Robinson, Williams.
Salford Red Devils: O'Brien, Evalds, Sau, J Griffin, Bibby, Lui, Dobson, A Walne, Wood, Joseph, J Walne, Sarsfield, Lannon. Subs Krasniqi, Hauraki, Jones, Haggarty.

It is the perception of most individuals which cash can only be produced as a World-wide-web if you have either a floor breaking notion or signal up to a shady scheme or two. But there are in truth a variety of methods to receive honest money, in an easy price and risk no cost environment. The possibilities generated by the surge in the recognition of the World wide web have developed a number of money-making schemes, few of that are as a prosperous or as in style as associate marketing as in Xtreme Profit Robot.
Associate marketing may sound prefer an intricate and complex marketing system, but in reality it is a simplistic business enterprise well inside the reach of also the least technologically minded World-wide-web user. All that is expected is a website and a fast signal till one of the dozens of associate programs available and you are away. Most affiliate marketing programs will supply their sites with all of the applicable advertising materials such as banners and textual content links. These distinctive marketing banners provide the key to all associate programs as they can accurately trace where a purchaser will come from, and thus more vitally who to pay. Doing so is accomplished in particular person URL's and a completely programmed system, which tends to make sure all the affiliates get paid without even lifting a finger.
The key to becoming a prosperous affiliate is to initially align by yourself with a singular marketplace sector or market. The measurement and attractiveness of an industry can generate the difference separating success and failure of an associate. There are a variety of industries that provide associate programs, but one of the a lot productive area of interest markets is that of online gaming. Busting down the online gambling market further, a new associate can refine their discipline of experience further, choosing anything enjoy has making a bet. The sports betting marketplace has often been a popular local pursuit
Dennis Rasmussen Jersey
, but it's diffuse through the Internet has been practically nothing short of phenomenal. It has become an enormous multi-billion dollar marketplace, which has been speedy to recognise the contribution of the all-important associates which possess provided hundreds of thousands of potential buyers to the companies at the time of the years.
Affiliates representing the packs gambling marketplace locations, can expect to earn a favourable percentage of until 35% of a fighters lifetime income created for the site. Each and every time a player wagers and loses the associate stages in family to earn their proportion of the income, simply as a bookmaker does. From the affiliate direct of view, bringing in these potential buyers is a simplistic business enterprise mainly being founded on good fortune. But as with all sectors one can make the own success through a wee explore and work. By optimising an affiliate site and getting more targeted traffic an associate can obviously generate far a lot more cash.

Fake Publicity- banah sugar banah Sugar
Submitted 2014-02-14 10:30:35 A sugar processing company that brought hype to Hialeah after it moved into a 300,000-square-foot space last July - promising to hire up to 300 workers - has filed for bankruptcy protection.The company's move to its new headquarters even prompted Miami-Dade County to rename a stretch of Southeast 10th Avenue "Banah Sweet Way" in honor of the company.

SITGES PT. I – THE GREATEST DISAPPOINTMENT: THE LORDS OF SALEM, Rob Zombie (2012)
It's taken me some time to decide the way to organize posts as already said. I'm finally arranging them based on the impact I received from them, good or bad, and their apparent importance.
Therefore to start my Sitges chronicles I've chosen The Lords of Salem for being one of the main titles I was interested in, which ended up being the greatest disappointment.
The marketing campaign, the artwork of the posters, the trailers and the aesthetics were promising, raising our expectations to unreal levels. When I say this, it's because I also got quite disappointed with the remake of Halloween. Back in the day I had thought of Zombie, the perfect person to keep all the Carpenter essence, combined with brutal images and providing the splatter and mean taste which could improve something that was achieved 30 years earlier. Of course it was impossible to deliver something better than the original, but adapted to modern times the result could have been much better. But it wasn't. and I gorgot about it till last Tuesday.
The established actress Dee Wallace, a real cunt, as she defined her role in the film, was there to introduce the film. She was very pleased, and seemed delighted with the final results and we were still optimistic on this regard.
The Lords of Salem tells the story of Heidi Hawthorne (Sherri Moon Zombie), a local radio DJ in Salem, a city in Massachusetts where the witch trials, and their executions, took place 300 years earlier, but apparently average nowadays. After one of the programmes with theBig H Radio Team, an old wooden box with a strange logo engraved, containing a vinyl is waiting for her. It's a gift of The Lords. When played at home, this eerie and disturbing melody, resembling an invocation causes her to experience a kind of flashback showing her memories of a past trauma and a killing migraine. From this point she will be feeling more and more tired, and her behavior will be so erratic, her colleagues Whitey the hippie( Jeff Daniel Phillips) and Jackson (Ken Foree), another black looking as Shaft, will start thinking she's on crack again. On the other hand, the song played by The Lords, starts being broadcasted on radio, affecting all the local women. This invoking anthem will bring the burnt witches of Salem back to life, and Heidi will be chosen as some sort of vehicle due to her ancestors.
I invited a friend to watch the film and there was a comment he made, when the film was still comprehensive and endurable, which was clear enough as to confirm the film was awful. He said something lie "if I had brought my wife here, after this scene, she would have divorced me, sent me to Hell, and her pregnancy would have failed".
Everything was pathetic: the plot was an attempt to twist an idea we've seen many times in movies. The concept of bringing back the dead through human sacrifice. Sherri Moon is gorgeous, I don't question her beauty and better if I don't remark the terrible outfits she was showing, but what I reckon is that her acting is poor and bad. It's confirmed that the director has an obsession for immortalizing her, so she's his muse, and there's always space and time for some of meat exhibition. The dialogues are completely terrible.
The film seems to be divided into two different parts. The first one is the understandable, with a normal pattern in the sequence of events, but the second, OMG! The second is just a visual recreation of different concepts. It could be compared to having a trip of LSD. For a while you're mind is under control and can feel that your brains are being affected, you feel anxious and uneasy, but you still know what's happening till the moment the drug explodes and from that point your trip is chaos and mayhem and you just can enjoy or deal with the trip, unable to focus, and experiencing weird things which make no sense. Well, the second part of The Lords of Salem is a bad acid trip, it's a joke. I could see my friend's astonished face, guess mine wasn't any better. We agree on the same: this film is a shit!
Rob Zombie concentrates all his energy in showing his wife, and developing films which seem full length video clips. His main target is to combine transgression with cult and merge classic and modern horror, rather than focusing on contents and good stories. He's so egocentric as not to be able to look beyond. The result is well deserved: his horrible mix ends up becoming a tasteless and vulgar cocktail.
The Lords of Salem is an epic fail!

The Osa Peninsula, in the Costa Rican South Pacific, is a unique place which, in only 160,000 hectares (some 395,355 acres), encompasses 2 percent of the world's biodiversity and 50 percent of all the species in Costa Rica. Its forests are home to at least 5,000 species of plants, over 700 species of trees, more than 8,000 species of insects, and 117 of reptiles. Also, there we find 375 species of birds, 124 of mammals, 40 of fresh water fish, and 28 species of dolphins and whales.
In order to protect that wealth, The Osa Campaign (Campaña Osa in Spanish) was launched in 2003, but it was not until now that the project was made public. It is a joint effort by the Costa Rica-USA Foundation (CRUSA), the Ministry of the Environment and Energy, Conservancy International, and The Nature Conservancy. The goal is to collect us$32.5 million, by the year 2008, to manage conservation and establish a trust. So far, us$19 million has been collected and each Costa Rican is expected to donate at least us$1, to add another us$3.2 million in the coming months.
Several major Costa Rican firms, such as La Nación, Intel Costa Rica, Tribu, Holtermann, and Pipasa partake in the non-profit campaign.

Anniversaries: June 29, 1975 – Apple I – the beginning of a era
Today is the 40th anniversary of the day Steve Wozniak sat down with his friend Steve Jobs and showed him a little project he was working on: A 1MHz computer with 4K of memory assembled out of $20 worth of parts. Wozniak had some thought of selling the designs at $40 a pop which is how most hobbyist computers were sold but Jobs saw an opportunity to make even more money by selling an assembled product.
The Apple Computer 1 (later known simply as the Apple I) debuted in 1976, distributed by the Byte Shop, one of the country's first personal computer retailers. The Apple I was still very much a hobbyist product. IT HAD NO CASE! Essentially, what you were buying was this:
Only 200 units were created and very few still exist, in part because Apple encouraged people to trade them in for the Apple II when it went on sale in 1977, and promptly destroyed all of the boards.

Mitsubishi Press and Internet Will Enable Krishna Digital to Grow, Establish New Niche
Tuesday, December 11, 2007
Press release from the issuing companyDecember 10, 2007 - BERKELEY, Calif. — As the printing industry becomes even more sophisticated and computerized, small commercial printers are taking advantage of the financial gains in these advancements. A 10-employee print shop called Krishna Digital that serves the San Francisco area is getting ready to launch a new website as a way to create a center of attention.
"Our old website was pretty much for informational purposes only," said Rajiv Rai, director of sales and operations. "The new site will provide a sales tool designed to bring us into the world of online printing."
Incorporating Internet-enabled printing into its business processes was made possible by the installation of a Mitsubishi Diamond 1000LS sheetfed press.
"We are very excited about being a Mitsubishi printer in this fast, online environment," Rai said.
Family-run since its inception in 1975, the firm started as a quick print operation. The shop began adding new equipment, offering more diverse services and stressing quality.
"The company slowly made the transition from quick printing, copying and prepress services," Rai (whose parents launched the family business) said. "We operated a direct imaging press from 1997 through 2006. In 2006, we bought a used Mitsubishi 1F press to expand into the 28-inch format and improve our print quality. The older press prints exceptionally well, but we decided to buy the brand-new press because it would provide a higher degree of automation and faster job changeovers."
With four printing units and an aqueous coater, the 20 x 28-inch Diamond 1000LS enables Krishna Digital to fulfill a wide range of short-run to medium-run general commercial projects, according to Rai.
"We print anything from small-run postcards to thousands of newsletters and posters," he said. "All the automation on the press gives us the flexibility to go from different sheet sizes to different finishes. For example, sometimes between three jobs, we have to change over coatings twice. The functionality of the press is such that everything is accomplished extremely fast."
Krishna Digital is used to a fast-flowing environment. The firm operates an Agfa :Acento four-up thermal platesetter with automated loading and stacking and EFI workflow software to keep prepress production moving effortlessly.
While the web-to-print storefront will significantly alter the way Krishna Digital communicates and delivers its services, Rai noted that online customers can look forward to the same quality and attention to detail expected by walk-in customers.
"We use the same equipment and methods for every job, just a different protocol for receiving the artwork," he said. "Nothing will change on the printing side. End products will retain the accuracy and detail of the original documents."
The biggest change for the business as a whole is Krishna Digital's ability to grow beyond short quick printing, thanks to the Diamond 1000LS press.
"We have already seen a substantial jump in larger, full-color projects," Rai said. "Customers that didn't ordinarily think of us when they were looking to have commercial jobs offset-printed are sending us work now. We have a better pricing point because we don't have to spend so much time on makeready. That is very attractive to print buyers who want the higher quality of conventional offset at a price that approaches the cost of digital."
Krishna Digital is putting the finishing touches on the programming for its new website, which the company plans to launch in January 2008. It will have the URL www.krishnadigital.com.
