"I want you here by my birthday."
"Oh, Lanie. I don't think that's going to happen."
"Well, when then?"
"The earliest, the end of the summer but probably sometime after the new year."
My heart sank. After the new year?!
3 months later.
"Happy Birthday, lover."
"Thank you, sweetie."
I was sitting on the bed doing my morning ritual of drinking coffee in between kissing her.
"I wish you didn't have to go to work."
"Me too, lover, but the sooner I go the sooner I can come home."
"Where do you want to go tonight?"
"I don't know. We'll talk about it when you get home from work."
So, today is my birthday and I already got what I wanted, too.
She moved in the end of June just in time for the 4th of July. I had flown down to Florida and helped her pack a 17' Uhaul that towed her car and we made the trek back to Georgia via Savannah.
I know that this may come to a shock to some of you and others not so much. I won't get into the gory details of her breakup and what she went through. I will say that since she's been here things have been wonderful – better than either of us could have imagined. I thought I would have some growing pains of living with someone again but I haven't. She just came in like a glove that was meant to fit my hand -soft, encompassing and secure.
This is much of the reason why I dropped off for awhile. I had a lot going on as well as needing to protect her through the transition. Only a select few friends knew anything. Last weekend we had a party for both my birthday and to introduce her to several of my friends -it was sort of our coming out party to announce our relationship. Everything went very well and we had a lot of fun! Charlie and I do well hosting parties together. Together we made kick-@ss bbq, beans and slaw and Ellen brought over some kick-@ss potato salad. Bird and her other half brought over a nice beer growler. TC and Paulette showed up along with a girl who was in our class and her gf. Charlie's friends who we partied with the weekend before last showed up with their karaoke machine and spent the night. Sadie ate an entire plate of sausages someone left out and wasn't worse for the wear. All in all it was a hit.
So, there you have it. Happy Birthday to me!
("Ugh, I shouldn't have eaten those sausages…..")

I'm always inspired by the ingenuity of lighting fixture designs. A lamp or pendant light is like art and can make or break a space. But these Roofer lights by Benjamin Hubert for Fabbian are so cute and versatile that they'd work in both grand and modest spaces alike.
The green is great fun (imagine it with brass accents or against a fresh white interior). But I would probably go for the gray.
The Armadillo light by LZF is another shingled design. The shingles are arranged more irregularly, giving this light a quirkier feel. This cherry red is the perfect color for the style.
Anyone spotted any other shingled designs I missed?

PVH Corp., the parent of Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger, was a rare crowd pleaser on a day when the U.S. government shutdown, now in its third day, and possibility of a U.S. debt default sent most retail stocks tumbling into the red along with the broader market.
The apparel company, which also owns Izod and Van Heusen clothing labels, rose 4% to $122.22, the second largest gainer in the S&P 500 Index.
Despite worries heading into the industry's holiday season and fears that consumers have shifted spending to cars and other bigger-ticket durable goods, PVH raised its third-quarter profit outlook by 5 cents a share to $2.25 a share. That gave investors some relief since its customers, including Macy's Inc. /quotes/zigman/467976 /quotes/nls/m M , have given disappointing outlooks, noting the spending shift.
PVH also pleased investors after it said it's selling its underperforming G.H. Bass & Co. shoe unit, which it bought in 1987 and including about 160 outlets under that name, to G-III /quotes/zigman/72444 /quotes/nls/giii GIII Apparel to focus on its core apparel business, led by Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger. PVH earlier this year bought Warnaco Group, maker of Calvin Klein underwear and jeans, for $3.1 billion in cash and stock as it integrates product lines under the label.
Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger, which PVH /quotes/zigman/5785329 /quotes/nls/pvh PVH bought in 2003 and 2010, respectively, to transform itself from a dowdy men's dress shirt company, represent about 75% of the company's total sales. Through the two labels, PVH has been expanding globally to reach markets in China, Brazil, India and elsewhere. Overseas business last year totaled about two-fifths of PVH"s total sales of about $6 billion.
"We view Bass as a distraction for PVH," Brean Capital analyst Eric Beder said, adding the unit generates $250 million in sales with limited profitability. The third-quarter profit raise was "an even more pleasant surprise. It demonstrates the continuing strength and market share opportunities for the Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein brands. (The Bass sale) further positions the company to focus on higher return opportunities and key potential drivers."

The Land of the Free
As of February 22, I have "crossed over" to become a resident of the US. I accepted a full-time development position with Microsoft in Redmond, Washington last November; I have now been here for a few weeks and am slowly putting my home back together.
Although the US and Canada are geographically nearby and the cultures appear to be quite similar, many subtle things have crept up as surprises. For example, Canadians tend to write apartment numbers before street numbers in an address; when I wrote my address in that format, my bank manager was rather confused and had to ask for clarifications. The purchase of my home, on the other hand, also generated some interesting observations in how real estate transactions are handled slightly differently in the two countries. In Canada, title transfer must be done by a "law" person such as a Notary Public or a lawyer, while in the US, an escrow company facilitates the transfer of money and title.
All the little surprises have become a very valuable lesson to never make assumptions. Although on the fundamental level things worked similarly, the details on how it's done can be very different. I have had to learn to ask many questions to make sure the details in my home purchase is carried out correctly!
Cashflow Event at Microsoft
In his book, Rich Dad Poor Dad, Robert Kiyosaki talks about the difference between an asset, which, by his definition, is something that puts money into your pocket every month, and a liability, which is something that takes money away from your pocket. He also introduces the concept of "passive income," which is income that is generated even when you are asleep. He created a board game called Cashflow 101, which simulates how to generate passive income in real life in a fun, interactive way. The "rat race" is where people go to work everyday and earn a salary, while the "fast track" is the place you go when you generate enough passive income to pay for monthly expenses, so you only work because you choose to not because you have to.
On March 7 I attended a cashflow event at Microsoft, organized by Chris Bennett and Glenn Snow, who have entered the fast track through real estate. In a cashflow event, people get together and play the Cashflow 101 board game and share ideas with like-minded people. I had a lot of fun meeting people and chatting with people who are interested in real estate. I am also very proud to have created a joint venture deal, in which all five players at my table purchased a share in an apartment, which generated enough passive income for all five players to get out of the rat race, talk about a win-win deal!
The organization from which Glenn and Chris learned real estate is called Nouveau Riche University, and they are hosting a one-day intensive workshop at the Hilton in Bellevue, Washington on Saturday, April 5. Please contact Glenn Snow at <email@example.com for a FREE ticket to the event!
Going from Within to Without
I started reading Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. The book starts by talking about how thoughts are things, which aligns very well with the ideas from The Secret and its discussions of the law of attraction.
In short, the creation of everything around us started as an idea; in other words, it comes from somewhere within. I have realized that while I have been creating real estate investments for myself and my joint venture partners, creating business for my power team, and creating a place to live for my tenants, I have spent an equal amount of time, if not more, on learning about myself. In the self-discovery process, I am starting to see a glimpse of my purpose in life, from which I created my mission to inspire and empower people to realize unknown possibilities; it is this mission that really has driven me to create the real estate investments and a better financial future for my joint venture partners and myself.
In other words, I believe that while searching for outside results, it is extremely important to reach in and learn more about oneself. What really drives you? What excites you and brings you satisfaction? With that information, you will have a much easier time creating a life that you truly want.
I went through a process at http://www.careerleader.com/ to learn more about myself, and I would like to take this chance to invite you to provide me with some feedback on my personality. Please go to http://www.careerleader.com/observers/microsoftfeedback.html, enter into the text field my ID number 217441, click on begin and rate my business-related abilities. This survey is completely confidential, and it will really help me understand myself from an outside perspective.
To complete this newsletter, I would like to take a chance to thank all the readers who have been so overwhelmingly supportive of my newsletter. I appreciate your feedback and it really makes my day to know that I made a difference in someone's life, inspiring them to live life to the fullest. Please, keep those e-mails coming! They continue to inspire me to write these newsletters. Happy rest of March!

My Yahoo! Movies column, first published here.
As two PCs face off in today's box-office battle, it might be a good idea to look at sisters in Bollywood. Priyanka and Parineeti are cousins but Hindi cinema is full of sisters who have been anything from wildly to moderately to not-at-all successful.
I would stick my neck out and call Tanuja and Nutan the most successful pair of sisters in Bollywood history. In terms of sheer durability and histrionic range, they have no parallels.
Nutan did sensitive, heroine-driven roles like Bandini, Seema, Sujata and Saudagar. She also donned a swimsuit in a madcap comedy like Dilli Ka Thug. She was the romantic lead in superhits like Tere Ghar Ke Samne and Paying Guest. She ended with strong mother roles like Karma, Meri Jung and Naam. In short, she was a superb actress. In fact, she has won five Filmfare awards for Best Actress – a record she shares with her niece, Kajol.
Tanuja was the spunkier of the two sisters. She acted in some huge hits like Jewel Thief, Haathi Mere Sathi and Mere Jeevan Sathi though her box-office potential was not fully realised. She had a strong career in Bengali cinema and she followed up her leading lady days with a great stint as 'mother' – in films as diverse as Love 86, Aatish and Khakee.
Commercially, there is nobody to beat the Kapoor sisters.
Karisma started off in horrendous – yet hugely successful – films with Govinda and David Dhawan. Raja Babu, Coolie No. 1 and Hero No. 1 were massive hits though she was looked at with considerable derision for doing these. She changed all that when she did the second lead in a Yash Chopra film – Dil To Paagal Hai – and held her own against Madhuri Dixit. Her clothes and image saw a dramatic makeover as she not only became a Manish Malhotra muse but also acted in critically acclaimed roles like Fiza and Zubeidaa. She quit films after her marriage but looks all set to make a comeback after her divorce.
It is ironic that despite having a string of memorable films, Kareena is mostly discussed for her Size Zero figure and her love life. She has acted in massive hits (3 Idiots, Bodyguard, Jab We Met) as well as arthouse, performance-oriented films (Chameli, Dev, Omkara). She has been subdued (Kurbaan) as well as over the top (Golmaal 3). In short, she is the quintessential Bollywood heroine.
Karisma and Kareena are the only two siblings to have been nominated for the Filmfare Best Actress award in the same year (2002). They were beaten by another sister, Kajol.
Tanuja's daughter came to Bollywood with a similar mix of talent and chutzpah. While Tanuja was often seen to be too much of a rebel, Kajol fitted right in with the modern times.
She overcame her not-classical looks with some great acting in iconic films – the most memorable one being Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Indian cinema's longest running blockbuster. Her acting and charm landed her meaty roles and she played them with aplomb right from her first hit (Baazigar) to one-off parts after marriage (My Name Is Khan). In between, she delivered a string of hits that make her one of the most popular Bollywood actresses of all time.
To use a cricketing term, sister Tanisha did not bother the scorers too much. Her filmography is dubious, to put it mildly, as her best known film seems to be Neal 'n' Nikki (which she co-starred with the other under-performing sibling of Bollywood – Uday Chopra). She has also acted in a few South Indian films but never managed to reach even an infinitesimal part of her sister's success.
While on the subject of Uday Chopra, it might be opportune to bring up Shamita Shetty who made her debut opposite the Yash Raj scion in Mohabbatein. Shamita had an uneven run at the box office and her only (if you insist) memorable role was in Fareb – where she co-starred with her sister, Shilpa competing with her for the affections of Manoj Bajpayee. (Yes, I know. Poor Manoj!)
Shilpa Shetty, of course, fended off far stronger competition than her sister to be the totally hot diva who was a shoo-in for roles that needed svelte figures, dancing and big smiles. Her debut was with the other Big Sister – Kajol – in Baazigar and she followed it up with blockbusters like Main Khiladi Tu Anari and Dhadkan. She even slipped in a couple of 'award' roles like Life In A Metro and Phir Milenge before finding international stardom in Celebrity Big Boss and IPL.
Padmini Kolhapure had a successful acting career that started as a child artiste (in films like Satyam Shivam Sundaram and Insaaf Ka Tarazu) and transitioned to an actress. She was always the slightly conservative girl waiting for a breath of fresh air from the hero and her most successful roles were all in this mould – Zamaane Ko Dikhana Hai, Prem Rog and Woh 7 Din, for example. She got married and took a break but has come back in bhabhi roles in the recent past.
Padmini's younger sister, Tejaswaini, debuted in Anurag Kashyap's ill-fated Paanch which was banned before release and her strong performance went unnoticed. She has acted in a few offbeat ventures and is likely to be seen in Anurag Kashyap's forthcoming film, Ugly.
Their older sister – Shivangi – is married to Shakti Kapoor.
Farha was part of the assembly line of heroines who starred in near-identical films in the late 80s and 90s. From Love 86 to Rakhwala to Yateem, Farha was moderately successful in tomboyish roles with husky voice and tough-cookie act. She graduated to bhabhi roles towards the later part of her careers (in Hulchul, for example).
Her sister Tabassum a.k.a. Tabu made a child debut in Dev Anand's Hum Naujawan and then acted in brain-dead hits like Vijaypath, Jeet and Saajan Chale Sasural. Just when we thought she was becoming a clone of her sister, she found her acting groove in Gulzar's Maachis and followed it up with powerhouse performances in Virasat, Hu Tu Tu, Chandni Bar and Maqbool. Her talents have got her into quite a few international productions with Indian connections – The Life of Pi and The Namesake, for example.
Dimple Kapadia had a dream debut in Bobby and an even dreamier wedding to Rajesh Khanna. When the marriage ended, she became back and proceeded to do several memorable films which were either hugely successful (Saagar, Arjun, Ram Lakhan, Krantiveer) or highly acclaimed (Rudaali, Drishti, Lekin) or hot (Jaanbaaz). Even after growing older, she did some very interesting roles that went beyond the ghisa-pita mother-aunty template. Pyar Mein Twist, Dil Chahta Hai, Luck By Chance all had an edge in her roles that made them memorable.
Simple – on the other hand – came into films probably only because producers wanted her sister and she was the nearest they could get. Just one letter changed, you see! Her debut was opposite brother-in-law Rajesh in Anurodh. That film and the subsequent ones did not demonstrate any major acting talent. She eventually went on to become a costume designer in Bollywood.
Dimple's two daughters followed their mother and aunt too.
Twinkle Khanna debuted opposite Bobby Deol in the latter's home production and debut vehicle, Barsaat. She was paired opposite nearly every major star of the time – Aamir, SRK, Govinda, Sunny Deol, Saif Ali Khan and of course, Akshay Kumar – though not in their best films. In any case, she found love and left Bollywood for happy matrimony and interior designing.
Twinkle's sister was named Rinkle though she dropped the L when she entered Bollywood. (Don't ask me why!) She did some interesting films like Jhankaar Beats and Pyar Mein Kabhi Kabhi. She did not win the Filmfare for the Best Female Debut. If she did, they would have been the only pair of sisters to have done so. (Incidentally, Priyanka and Parineeti have won this debut award double.)
Riya and Raima Sen – daughters of Moonmoon and granddaughters of Suchitra Sen – have toggled between Bengali and Hindi cinema but their Hindi roles have largely been extended cameos. Raima's has been in Honeymoon Travels Pvt Ltd, Ekalavya and Manorama Six Feet Under among others while Riya played her mother's daughter in Vishkanya (as a child artiste) and had somewhat visible roles in Jhankaar Beats and Style.
Incidentally, the Sen sisters acted with Sharman Joshi in a film called 3 Bachelors – which was made in early 2000s but had a limited and litigious release in 2012.
Going back to the 1970s and 1980s, we have Vijeta and Sulakshana Pandit whose playback singing and acting careers were intertwined. Their brothers were popular music composers Jatin-Lalit, which probably helped them make the transition. Vijeta had a dream debut opposite Kumar Gaurav in Love Story but couldn't sustain the momentum. Sulakshana Pandit had an even more undistinguished acting career.
Amrita Arora has acted in a few films here and there, bolstered by many guest appearances in films by friends and family.
Her elder sister, Malaika Arora, has been the greatest exponent of that Bollywood art-form – the Item Number. From Dil Se to Dabangg, she has been a sinewy, sensuous presence in several iconic songs and hasn't bothered to 'act'. In Kaante, she was supposed to be a character (who was also a pole dancer) but her few lines of dialogue got missed.
The three Reddy sisters – Sameera, Sushma and Meghna – have a mix of film, music and modelling careers and it is never clear who is more famous for what. If we try to isolate their films, we will find Meghna hasn't done any Bollywood while Sushma did two blink-and-still-there roles in Chocolate and Chup Chupke.
Sameera has a bigger list of credits though not many have stood the test of time. She has been in Race, Musafir and Darna Mana Hai among others, though her most inexplicable role must have been in acclaimed director Buddhadeb Dasgupta's Bengali film, Kaalpurush.

MOGA Update
It's been a few weeks since I attended MOGA so I want to do some catching up and post some photos. This was an incredible geocaching event and very well organized. My hat is off to all the directors and their team members. And Richard (Bumanfam) at the awards ceremony was one of the funniest MC's I have seen. He should go into show business. My thanks to all the long-time geocachers who I saw again, and to all the geocachers who I met at this event. By my count I reviewed and published over 400 new caches in preparation for MOGA. It took a lot of time over the past few months, but it wasn't as much work for me as it was for those who went out and actually hid the MOGA caches. Now be sure to maintain them! :-)

|Norman Cornish: Self Portrait
Norman Cornish died on Friday. He was 94. He worked as coal miner before becoming a professional artist, part of the Pitman's Academy set up in the North-East in the 1930s. He, and his extraordinary work, featured regularly in The Northern Echo and on one occasion, features editor Brian Page went to his home in Spennymoor to interview him. After Norman's death, I asked Brian to write a piece on his meeting. Here are his words:
I arrived at a modest terraced house in modest Spennymoor. Passersby trudging down the street stared with open curiousity, in that County Durham way, before then nodding and giving me an "all reet".
There was a wind whisking cast-aside sweetie papers and bits of newspaper up into the air and the threat of a damp drizzle in the sky.
I took a deep breath. Knocked on the door. A slight shiver of anxiety sweeping from head to toe.
They say you should never meet your heroes.
And yet here I was. At the door of the house of Norman Cornish.
"Are you the lad from The Northern Echo," a friendly voice answered my knock. "Howay in, pet, Norman's upstairs, he'll be with you in a minute. Would you like a cup of tea?"
Sarah, Norman's wife, beamed a smile. "Come on in and sit down a moment," she said. And smiled again.
A moment later an unsmiling Norman Cornish arrived. He shook my hand and looked in my eye. He was a lean man, smartly dressed, swept back hair, dark eyes, watchful. He sat silently down and waited.
I blathered for England. Or at least for The Northern Echo. We wanted to do a major four-part series based on the newly published book on his life and work, the first part would be our interview, the other three based on the book itself and…
"Do you know anything about art?"
Er, no… not really. I mean I, that is, er, well, no, not really…"
A long pause. A fixed look.
"But I can tell you this Mister Cornish, I would have beaten half the newsroom to death to get this interview…
He looked at me. Waited. And then nodded. "It's Norman," he said. "Norman will do just fine."
And that's how it started, an interview that was meant to last an hour but ran to most of the day, with an interuption only when the wonderful Sarah insisted I stay and "have some liver and onions for your dinner".
(For the non North-Easterners among you, dinner in County Durham is the proper term for what other folk call lunch).
Once Norman had worked out that I really did know his work, from early days to the latest paintings about to go on an exhibition tour, he warmed. And behind the shy and self-effacing exterior Norman Cornish was a warm man.
He spent long moments explaining to me about the sweeps and the curves and the geometry and the lines and angles of a painter-draughtsman's craft.
And then he would look at me keenly. "Do you see," he would say.
And I did. I think.
One painting, in particular, had always fascinated and, in some way horrified me, I told him. It was of miners making their way over a bridge, the pit wheels looming and a string of wired cross-head pylons pointing the way forward.
"Ah," he replied. And for the first time smiled. "Calvary."
And it all dropped in place. The pylons were there like a line of crucifixes, leading the way to the dreaded pit and the deep descent into an underground world…
At last there was a glimmering of understanding, of knowing.
And the day stretched on, cups of tea and more moments of insight. More glimpses of the wonderful world of the artist who had once been a miner.
When it was (long past) time to go, we shook hands at the door. Sarah smiled and Norman nodded. And then he, too smiled.
It was one of the best days…
You can view some of Norman Cornish's work on his website here.
A book of condolence is available at Northumbria University Gallery or by email to firstname.lastname@example.com. An illustrated memorial lecture and appreciation of Norman's life and work by his biographers, Bob McManners and Gillian Wales, will take place at Spennymoor Town Hall in September. Details will be published at www.normancornish.com/lecture and members of the public are welcome to attend.
Brian Page is a former deputy editor of The Northern Echo and an award-winning feature writer. He now runs his own freelance company, Page One Publications, based in York. He is the author of Still Lives, a novel based in the newspaper world and has a new book, Divided We Fall, due for publication in the autumn.

Weight: 3.00 lbs
Direct Thunderbolt™ 2 Access
The new SANLink2 16G FC is a compact device that allows a Thunderbolt™ 2 host computer to directly connect to a Fibre Channel SAN, doubling the speed of the previous generation 8 Gb FC. SANLink2 10GBase-T connects devices to the local network to access shared media, and SANLink2 10G SFP+ connects devices to the network via optical for remote branches and offices at distances greater than 100 meters.
Offload video capture to a Mac Pro or Windows workstation with SANLink2
Take for example the Phantom Flex 4K camera. It transfers data to a Phantom 10 Gbps CineStation so that it can continue in an on-set shoot. The CineStation can be connected directly at 10 Gb Ethernet speeds to a MacBook Pro with SANLink2 10GBase-T (copper) or 10 G SFP+ (optical). At the same time, this MacBook Pro can have a Pegasus2 M4 SSD attached via a SANLink2 16G FC for the fastest data transfer of over 1300 MB/s for editing off multi-cameras capturing different points of view. The SANLink2 16G FC can connect this remote set up to a VTrak A-Class for collaborative editing. Similarly, SANLink2 10GBase-T might be selected if cabling for an immediate datacenter is within 30 - 100 meters. For companies that require cabling to reach beyond 100 meters, the SANLink2 10G SFP+ is the ideal choice.
Streamline the Creative Process
Real-time editing of multimedia files in their native, uncompressed formats has persisted as a challenge for creative professionals. Fortunately, with SANLink2, costly rendering time (due to proxy editing) is eliminated. Gain access to low-latency, high-bandwidth storage through reduced file loading periods. Instantaneous response times during timeline scrubbing and faster media file transfers become your new standard.
Master the 4K Workflow
At the moment high-speed transfer capabilities are placed into the workplace, systems evolve. With SANLink2, all storage bottlenecks for desktop and portable computing systems are immediately alleviated through the introduction of Fibre Channel or 10 Gb Ethernet connectivity into the work process. 4K (Ultra HD) environments consisting of bandwidth-hogging post-production and broadcasting operations now become seamless workflows, where downtime ceases to exist.

Hello everyone!
I hope you are all well and happy and that whatever you are sewing right now is coming along nicely!
It's time to announce a new Curvy Sewing mini-series: The Peculiarities of Plus Size Sewing. This will be a chatty monthly opinion post on the weird and wonderful world of sewing for larger bodies, and all of the issues and benefits in doing so.
The idea is to take a general sewing topic, for instance, piecing together PDF patterns, and put a plus size spin on it, creating a forum where we can identify what is different for plus sized sewers, what the common problems are and how we might troubleshoot them. It's also an opportunity to have a bit of a laugh about the annoying assumptions that many non-curvy sewists and pattern designers have about sewing and the stuff that annoys us, ie. 'It is SUCH a great pattern, and you can squeeze it out of a metre of fabric!'….. YEAH IF I WANT IT TO COVER ONE ARM. Please note however: this is all good natured fun, and we don't want any body shaming language in this discussion, including disparaging remarks about thinness.
I have a list of topics in my head that I think would be good to cover in this, but I am keen to hear of more, and also take contributions from you wonderful bunch. So far I have:
- The expense of needing to use more fabric
- Huge pattern pieces and storage
- TERRIBLE plus sized patterns (tents)
- Separate plus size ranges
- Small size ranges of patterns
- The need to learn how to grade patterns/do FBAs right from the start
- Models and sewing pattern packets that don't look like us
- Sewing lessons that aren't geared to curvy sewists
- The extra time taken for sewing much longer hems and seams!
What else should we cover? What do you think is unique about curvy sewing? And do any of you fancy writing a piece on one of these subjects?
Editor's note: Wow, this has been up for less than 24 hours and there are already so many FANTASTIC suggestions! There are plenty that I will add to the list, and some that could stand to be developed further outside this series. Thank you so much for sharing all your tales of trial and error. I certainly can't claim (as a sewist of just over a year's experience) to know all the solutions to these peculiarities, but I feel hopeful that between us, we have so much useful experience that is much better shared. So thank you. And as I said before, if any of you want to write posts on any of these issues, please do let us know, either in the comments below or by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com

Would the chart be different if your possible outcomes were Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerberg, and Linus Torvalds? I bet for a start it wouldn't mention Jimmy Choos or choice of handbags. And it probably wouldn't be in baby blue either.
Do we need role models?
I feel almost a responsibility to be a role model. I joined ThoughtWorks because I felt it would give me a better platform for greater visibility, so I could show that girls could do this job. I feel passionately that the industry desperately needs excellent role models to overcome the stereotypes kids are absorbing (in our western society) about what it means to be a programmer(/developer/techy).
My friend Mazz feels quite differently. She doesn't see why she should have a greater responsibility to be a role model simply because of her gender. It wouldn't be expected of her co-workers. She suggests that by making a career in programming an option for all, or worse, by targeting specific groups (e.g. women) we're devaluing the industry. Surely we're stronger if we only attract people who are interested in the first place?
During a week long trip to Vegas (it's a hard life), Mazz and I realised we actually agreed on fundamentals:
- Mazz doesn't believe we need female role models to tempt women into programming
- I believe we need more diverse role models than we currently have.
If Mazz doesn't want to be a role model because she's perfectly happy getting on with doing her job bloody brilliantly, then that's totally cool - after all, if minorities are expected to do stuff which distracts them from their day job, it's going to make them less appealing to employers.
The real question is: How do we attract more than just the "typical" geeks into programming?
Where can we find appropriate role models to represent us?
It is the time of the geek. Let's ride the wave and bring other people to the party.
All of us.

PAGE holds BN to ransom on PPSMI issue
Noor Azimah (left) with the letter of appeal the lobby group presented to the PM, outside the PM's office in Putrajaya on October 31, 2011
The Parent Action Group for Education (PAGE) today admitted holding the ruling Barisan Nasional (BN) to ransom over the use of English to teach science and mathematics in schools.
Yesterday, PAGE chairman Datin Noor Azimah Abdul Rahim had bluntly said BN risks losing votes in the upcoming general election if it continues to bar students from learning science and maths in English in schools.
Today, the parents lobby group denied any political affiliation, saying it was only doing what was best for their children.
"Because it is real. If we don't get this and I'm going to vote and I'm a believer. And unfortunately, if I don't get this for my children that is what I will do," Noor Azimah told reporters today after sending a letter of appeal to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak on the matter.
She said Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin had said the decision to abolish the teaching of science and mathematics in English (PPSMI) was final, but pointed out it "requires the endorsement of the PM".
"We hope that as the PM has always been saying that he is listening to the rakyat, we would like to urge him to listen to us," she said.
"He (Najib) says that people first, but we feel that parents and children are last. So please listen to us, we know they hear us, but they have to listen," she added.
Noor Azimah said the issue should not be politicised or distorted for selfish agendas.
"If the politicians are playing politics when it comes to education, if they can do that, If today's memorandum should fall on deaf ears, Noor Azimah said PAGE would organise peaceful "picnics" around the country "in support of PPSMI".
"Come November 12, we will hold peaceful picnics in Selangor, Malacca, Penang and KL to show the government that we are serious."
PAGE had previously stressed that PPSMI was not about learning English through science and mathematics, but to provide the context to put the language into practise.
Opposition parties like the DAP have thrown their weight behind PAGE's cause, demanding that the Education Ministry be more flexible and give students the option which will enable the country to retain its best talents.
The growing row over the education policy has split the country along racial, political lines ahead of national polls likely to be called early next year.
Vocal fundamental groups are using the issue to champion their version of nationalism.
Several non-partisan civil societies have recently banded together to counter this tide but the powerful Malay-dominant political parties appear to be reluctant to commit to this hot potato issue ahead of the 13th general election.

Hello, I'm developing a COLLADA parser with JavaScript, and while I'm reading about the animation part of COLLADA specification,
a small note made me confused.
The COLLADA specification notes that (COLLADA 1.4.1, 2nd Edition, page 5-102)
However, I haven't seen any example doing this, and it doesn't seem to be possible since channel's target is specific channel - matrix, vector, etc.Keys are often TIME values, but they can be any other variable. For example, it is possible to associate the
rotation of a wheel of a train with the position of the train on the track, so, by moving the train forward or
backward, the wheel and other mechanisms can automatically move.
Furthermore, all other tags don't support specifying input channel - such as object position, rotation, etc. Only TIME seems to be possible because it's a global variable.
Code :<channel source="#Box-Translate-X-Sampler" target="Box/Trans.X"/>
So, is there any example that uses other than TIME for sampler input? Or, is there any COLLADA implementation supporting this feature?

While engineers and designers feverishly worked overtime on the advancement of a four-passenger sports car they code-named the F-car, the Chevy public relations, marketing and advertising team prepared the world for the introduction of a vehicle they called the Panther.
All through the summertime of 1965 essentially every element of the vehicle's design and advancement, from initial design sketches to clay models, was photographed and thoroughly recorded. Chevy used the assets to produce a 30 -minute motion picture The Camaro for sale in Blakely GA , which was later revealed on TV and in movie theaters. They likewise presented females's clothing called the Camaro Collection and even a Camaro road race game.
Chevy Camaros For Sale
In November, Chevy sales executives and imaginative people previewed prototype designs at the GM Tech Center. Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's age-old advertising agency, right away began work on catalogs, direct-mail advertising and sales promo materials, in addition to print, outside and TV/radio advertising. In April 1966, at the New York Car Show Interview, Chevrolet sales executives confessed no name had actually been chosen for the brand-new car, but did announce that pricing of 1967 Chevy Camaro for sale in Blakely GA design will be in the Corvair-Chevy II variety.
Throughout early 1966 Chevy agonized over a name for its Mustang-killer. GM's upper management was nervous about the aggressive undertones of the Panther name. A similar bout of cold feet would later on trigger the Pontiac variation, code named the Banshee, to be renamed Firebird. Over its short lifetime, the F-car had been called by numerous names including Wildcat, Chaparral, Leader and Nova. It's likewise reported that Chevy thought about utilizing the letters "GM" in the name, and developed G-Mini, which progressed into GeMini and lastly Gemini. Nevertheless, GM's upper management banned the concept, fearing the vehicle might be a failure.
Automotive legend has it that somebody at Chevrolet lastly proposed the name Camaro and upper management quickly agreed. Although the name has no real meaning, GM researchers supposedly discovered the word in a French dictionary as a slang term for "friend" or "buddy." It's reported that Ford Motor Company scientists also found other definitions, consisting of "a shrimp-like animal" and an arcane term for "loose bowels."
Due to the fact that a number or pre-launch materials had currently been launched using the Panther name, Chevy's the majority of pressing difficulty was to now rename their new Mustang killer, the Camaro. Camaros are found in Blakely GA by looking for classic car dealers.
Finally, on June 28, 1966, General Motors held a live press conference in Detroit's Statler-Hilton Hotel. It was the first time in history that 14 cities were hooked up in real time for an interview via telephone lines. Elliot M. "Pete" Estes, who changed "Bunkie" Knudsen as Chevrolet General Manager in July 1965, began the press conference by declaring all individuals were now charter members of the Society for the Elimination of Panthers from the Automotive World (SEPAW.) Estes confidently announced that Camaro was picked as the name for Chevy's new four-passenger cars to honor the custom of starting Chevy model names with the letter C such as the Corvette, Corvair, Chevelle, and Chevy II.

Ride with us into a world of suspense, romance, comedy, and mystery --
Because life always looks better from the back of a horse!

Doing the right thing.
As I get older I have found that this creed does not always show you a clear path and what is the "right" thing is not always easy to determine. My current case in point relates to my recent decision to have surgery done on one of my dog's to repair his ACL. I agonized over whether the benefits of the surgery outweighed the the risks and the trauma it would put him through.
Murphy is not your typical dog. He was a very high maintenance rescue that I adopted at 9 months old. He is now 7. When I took Murphy I was pretty much his last chance seeing that I was the 5th home he had had in his 9 months of life. Murphy was very neurotic, insecure, had severe separation anxiety and very little manners. He is either a dobie or rottweiler mix with super high energy and needed a home with land to run and play. It is his exuberance and energy that eventually led to his ACL injury last year. Murphy does everything at full throttle, including playing and running across my property at break neck speed.
It is also this "living large" personality that is making me question whether I have done the right thing and making his recovery a slow and torturous process for both of us. ACL surgery for a dog is very invasive, even more than for its human counterpart, and involves placing screws and plates to stabilize the bones where the ligament no longer functions. In Murphy's case, he had completely ruptured (not that he ever do anything half way) 95% of the ligament which essential left the rest barely attached by a thread and non-functional. The recovery period requires strict confinement for the initial 3 to 4 weeks and then carefully monitored and restricted activity for 2 months after that.
I knew that this would not be easy and that tranquilizers would be the order of the day for a majority of this time, but I had not prepared myself for the reality of how miserable and unhappy Murphy was going to be. Generally they suggest crating the dog, which is not an option for my claustrophobic and nervous boy, so I set up a small 4'x4'x4' - "xpen" type cage in my bedroom with tons of soft bedding. Pretty nice right? Well, not. Murphy is miserable and even as I right this he is whining and crying in the cage which is making me even more unhappy than he is. I wish I could reason with him that it won't be forever and that if he could just chill for a few months that life will get back to normal. Anyone out there that speaks neurotic rescue dog? I am even worried that he is going to compromise the success of the procedure because he won't just lay quietly.
So have I done the right thing? I did not make the decision for surgery lightly not only because of what it would put Murphy through but also because this level of vet specialty does not come cheap. (Nearly $4,500) At the time it seemed that Murphy did not have many other options. I had tried multiple non-invasive therapies like swim rehab, acupuncture, cold laser, and ultraviolet light therapy to name a few. When he became essentially three-legged lame I felt that the only viable option was surgery since I did not want to condemn him to the rest of his life being lame and was not prepared to euthanize him.
But now I am not as sure. Maybe I should have left well enough alone. When he was lame before the surgery he stilled seemed happy as a clam. Horses, at least mine, seem to be easier to deal with inactivity and confinement or at least they hide it better. What do you think? How do you measure "doing the right thing"?

A year from now, when Murphy's bounding happily across your land again, you'll know you've done the right thing. Right now, it's hard to see the future because dogs live in the moment and the moment is making him unhappy. I have no experience with neurotic rescues, but I think you need to provide plenty of tranquilizers and chew toys. Try to only reward him with attention when he's quiet - yes it's HARD but he might eventually get the idea that Mommy likes a quiet puppy.
In the meantime, you did the right thing. This will pass, but ending such an exuberant dog's life would've left you questioning your choice even more.

Terri--I feel for you. I only have a couple of things to offer. First, I did a similar thing to a very skittery cat who could not take confinement. I had to lock the cat in a closet because kennels freaked him out. The cat was still miserable. But he healed--and he lived to be twenty--the confinemet occurred when he was three. So yeah, it was worthy it. And--you know, worst case, I once rescued (I had to trap) a feral dog who had a broken leg. The leg had been broken for awhile before I was able to trap the dog. We tried, but we could not mend it Eventually I opted to remove the leg. I found a home for this (now) three-legged dog and he lived to a ripe old age. He could run as fast as any dog you ever saw, even though he had three legs. It IS a viable option--though most folks won't tell you that. Terri--hang in there--your dog will be OK. You are trying--and that's what counts.

Chew toys, bones, and tranquilizers will be the order of the day, but in no time at all he will be out running around again. As far as the three-legged dog, it is very very common in Australia to see them. They heal quickly and it doesn't slow them down at all. It's a practice I'd love to see in the States more.

Maybe tranquilizers for both of you! Just kidding. I do feel for you. The hardest part is knowing that they don't understand and feel we are punishing them. You did the right thing and for now that is what is going to get you through. The wonderful part of it all is that in a few months while he is bombing around the yard, he will have forgotten all about his incarceration and be a one happy dog.

My golden doodle had the TPLO surgery on both back legs--Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy. For essentially a year, because each surgery required lengthy recuperation and gradual "return to normal activity," she was a convalescent. Large crate where all the action was so she was in the midst of life at my house but not in jeopardy. On a leash for potty (with a towel I could put under her barrel--think "girth"--so I could help support her while she did her business because she was unable to support herself) and eating, VERY strict PT, etc.
Gayle Carline is correct. Dogs are miserable when they cannot do "their thing," and Blossom LIVED for balls, toys, chasing, playing, and just generally being a "ranch dog," busy at all times. After that year, she was full of herself again, and she lived a very happy and VERY active 9+ years.
Expensive? cough cough. Worth it? Absolutely.

Go down to the grocery store and buy REAL bones. I guarantee you they will help keep him happy. Dogs evolved chewing bones, not chew toys.

And I agree-tranquilizers for YOU! You made a decision, so stop obsessing if it was the right one. Every choice has consequences. If you'd had Murphy put down you would be agonizing over that choice. Lots of good advice here, but the best thing was for you to put it in words so we could tell you that it will be okay! (Just maybe not tomorrow.)

Oh Terri, this is a really hard one for me. I went through so many surgeries and fixes with Phoenix and it broke my heart. She was calm and sedate about the numerous things we put her through. Now as I have 1 senior citizen (Max) and Manny being 16 I set my surgery limits in age. If anything happens to either one of them no surgery. Max because he is 26 and not for Manny because he is 16 and his mind wouldn't last. But if (God forbid) Finally needed surgery I would do it, he is only 8 and calm as a horse can get. I have full confidence he would come back physically and mentally.
For Murphy, I agree with others give him whatever treat you can, have a glass of wine yourself, and wait it out. He still has many years to come and he will last much longer not in pain. The worst torture in this world is seeing your children in pain, it is heartbreaking. I often get made fun of for being the calm one when someone else's horse gets hurt, but if one of mine has a scratch or comes up lame I fall aprat and call Jolene crying for her to fix them.

Thank you all so much for your kind and supportive comments. Murphy had a melt down on Tuesday and fought his was out of the cage on Tuesday and I had to rush hinm back to the hospital thinking all the while that he had blown the pins/plates and that we would have to either redo the surgey or amputate. (Yes I come to the decision that I cannot put him down.) Miraculously he had not undone the surgeon's good work and we decided to up his dosage of tranquilizers. So it is Ace Promazine for him and Grey Goose Lemon Drops for me. We are both doing better and I will take all of your comments to heart as we make it through the net 3 months of rehab.
- April 13, 2012 at 6:50 PM
- Laura Crum said...
Terri--If you ever do have to amputate to save his life, do not be too scared of this. I have done it twice, on a cat and dog with unfixable legs--and both animals had an excellent quality of life afterward. I hate to say it, but those two did better than a cat whose badly broken leg I had very carefully and expensively mended. This cat always walked with a limp and never seemed comfortable. The two three-legged critters did great. So, though, I hope you do not have to do this, just don't be too afraid if you do.

I did ACL repair on my darling dog and I know what it's like. Luckily, our English Springer girl is calm and while not a huge fan of her crate, she did tolerate it well. The hardest part for us was the hand-walking; we are all used to being able to open the back door and let her go. She mended beautifully for the first six weeks and then due to an accidental escape, ran too fast and tore her meniscus. That set her back, but long story short, she DID completely recover and now three years later, at age 9, runs and plays as sound as ever. Her knee still makes a "clicking" sound when she runs up stairs, but it doesn't seem to bother her so I'm calling it good! If your boy isn't already on a joint supplement, I recommend getting one. It seems to have helped Sunny.
I wish you both much luck with recovery. This too shall pass! :-)

Yes, not at all, x264 splits frames into as many number of independent slices as there are threads. Makes parallelization easy (even for decoding) but hurts a little bit compression efficiency. ffmpeg with multiple threads isn't bit exact either, not at all (even though obviously it doesn't use slices).

I've been playing with NetBeans occaisonally. I couldn't stand it a couple of years ago. However, after Sun's Tech Days in Atlanta I decided to give it a try.
Besides, I wanted to verify a clean checkout, build, test cycle.
We use svn over ssh at work. It was a headache to get this running with NetBeans. I didn't completely succeed either.
This post has a nice tutorial from a Rails perspective. I started here. I was able to checkout fine. But when I right clicked -> Subversion -> Update I got an error stating that ssh_askpass couldn't be found.
I did some digging around. This post is a great discussion about Leopard and ssh.
I checked out this tutorial from the NetBeans site. I was pretty annoyed that I hadn't found an answer so I clicked the update button. It worked.
I can't reproduce the error now. Right clicking the project and running an update has worked since I updated from the button.
So in the event that you hit this post while having the same problems, run an update from the button.

The largest exile community of North Koreans is in south west London.
At least 600 are thought to live in New Malden - itself home to a large number of South Koreans too.
The European Alliance for Human Rights in North Korea works with a number of these exiles and says that many want to talk about the human rights abuses in their home country, but that they do not have the language skills or the means to do so.
They are committed to helping them.
North Korean exile Jihyun Park and Felicity Spencer-Smith from the organisation joined London Live.

New data suggest marketers are shifting who they target and how they do it. See which audiences advertisers are willing to spend big bucks to gain access to.

Founded in 1983, Klein Financial Services, LP is a financial planning and services company based out of Houston. Although the company has fewer than a dozen full-time employees plus a handful of part-time and contract staff, it services some 800 clients both in and outside the state of Texas. In addition to personal financial planning services such as tax and estate preparation, Klein Financial Services provides bookkeeping and small-business consulting for numerous commercial clients and was called "one of Houston's most well respected financial management firms" by H-Texas magazine in 2007.
BUSINESS CHALLENGEAs a financial firm that provides on-site consultation for its business clients, keeping in touch with traveling agents and salesmen is a priority for Klein Financial Services. And with the large volume and confidential nature of the documents the firm routinely handles, traditional methods such as phone, fax, and email are either too cumbersome or not private enough. Yet with no significant IT infrastructure and limited employees, the company can't deploy the sort of complex software solution a larger company might turn to.
VENDOR OF CHOICE5050BIZ is a SaaS suite that combines the business-oriented social networking features of a site such as LinkedIn with many of the virtual office and collaboration features of a more robust SaaS suite. Targeted at small and mid-sized companies, the service provides companies with social networking tools to communicate both inside and outside of an organization, whether with clients or other businesses. In addition to file sharing, video and audio conferencing, instant messaging, and bulk email capacities, 5050BIZ also lets users tap into a network of experienced professionals in numerous fields who have volunteered to provide advice on subjects ranging from advertising and accounting to human resources and labor laws. Businesses can also seek out and network with other businesses on the site.
THE PROBLEM IN-DEPTHDespite being a small business, Klein Financial Services provides many of the same services as a larger financial planning company. Lori Klein prides herself on the range of services the company offers. "We cover you from birth to death, anything that has to do with your money," says Klein.
But in offering such diverse services, the company inevitably deals with a considerable amount of paperwork for both its business and personal clients, much of it of a private or confidential nature. And since much of the company's business is conducted off-site by its four traveling representatives, those documents need to be accessible remotely at a moment's notice.
Up until recently, the company used a decidedly low-tech solution: Documents were stored as hard copy and organized into binders. While that worked well enough for clients who came to the office, it presented problems when a field representative or client needed to check on a particular form or record from afar.
"You know, they call on the phone, you've got to go get the book, you've got to look it up," says Klein. "You may not have the emails. We have such security here, we can't go out to Yahoo! mail. We have several security settings that have to come in." All that referencing, reading, and calling generated a considerable amount of work for what is already a very busy office.
Although there are many software solutions that could provide remote document access and even collaboration features, Klein had neither the time nor the technical staff to implement a far-reaching platform. What the company needed was a compact, secure solution that would be affordable, easy to set up, and would not demand any additional IT workload in terms of deployment or service.

Our team at Exclusive Concepts has been doing a lot of posts on the Farmer/Panda update and many of us have mentioned that content is top priority now. I'd like to take a few minutes and expand on what everyone else has been saying. If your site has been hit in the Farmer/Panda update, it could be for a number of reasons, but if you have duplicated content, poor content or no content at all, chances are it could be because of one or more of these reasons.
Category pages and product pages are two different beasts – category pages obviously include information about a range of products, giving an overall umbrella view of what's actually in that category, while product pages obviously focus on something more specific. Like most people, I find it easier to come up with a lot of content for category pages, but product pages tend to stump me, which is why, I think, many of our clients end up putting manufacturer's content on their product pages, thus hurting their site with duplicate content. If you've done this or have realized your product page content is being duplicated, you may be feeling a little overwhelmed right now with rewriting everything.
Here are a few tips that will make the process quicker and more efficient.
- Focus on the most important product descriptions first – that means the products that are the best sellers, the things that make you the most money, or the items of which you have the largest inventory.
- Know your product and know your products well. The customer had the option of going to the manufacturer's site, but they came to yours instead. Whatever the reason, make sure they stay there by demonstrating an understanding of the product. Many times manufacturers use vocabulary that's over the purchaser's head so take this opportunity to go a bit further and really inform the reader using layman's terms.
- Answer questions that buyers would want to know like – Why is this a best-seller? How does it differentiate itself from similar products? Why should I buy this one instead of a similar version? This is your opportunity to be an expert on the product you're selling, but also make other people experts.
- If you don't have a consistent or clear voice for your site, this is a great opportunity to create one. Tone is so important when writing for people browsing your site, and knowing your audience is the first step to doing a good job. So, make sure you get it right. For example, if you sell children's clothes, you need to remember that even though the products are for younger kids, it's going to be parents and grandparents making the purchases. If you sell teen or tween clothing, teenagers may be the ones browsing the site, but a combination of parents and teens are the ones making the purchases, so creating a tone that's appropriate for both audiences is the challenge.
Writing original, helpful content is what will drive natural traffic to your site, convert more browsers into buyers and ultimately build more customer loyalty. If you sell hundreds of products, writing 200-300 words of content per page may seem like a daunting task, but if you create a list of most important product pages first, create a writing schedule and tackle each description like an expert, this project will be done in no time!

When I was briefed about our schedule of visiting Tegalalang Rice Terrace on day 3, the picture that first came into my mind was mountains and mountains of terraced rice fields which I imagined would be spectacular to be looked at.
So after almost an hour drive from Tirta Empul Temple, we eventually reached Tegallalang Village located on the north of Ubud. It was a huge blessing to have a tour guide to drive us around in Bali, honestly speaking. The roads are so narrow and winding that it was exhausting to even just sit in the car doing nothing.
And in the end, we settled for a scenery not so spectacular yet nice enough to click some snaps.
Rice terrace ornamented with coconut trees and straw houses on the side of the hill.
Six of us. Missing one person... you know who.
Me and our handsome "Kicap".
My super-hungry-so-please-make-it-fast face. A drooling duck feast awaiting us at Bebek Tepi Sawah Restaurant and I just couldn't wait a second longer to shove them down my throat. Like a barbarian, muahahaha xD
One last groupie before we left.
A very pinkish cafe that caught my eyes. It'd certainly be lovely to sit back and enjoy a cuppa overlooking the rice terrace across the road.
At last!!! We made it to Bebek Tepi Sawah Restaurant!
There are also a variety of seafood and other meats and veggies on the menu, other than duck dishes. We ordered three smoked, two deep-fried, one grilled, and a prawn dish for our Russian friend.
Fruit punch with sour kick. Are you pondering what I'm pondering?! *eyeing on the red cherries*
Selfie *(^.^)*
My deep-fried duck with steamed rice, curried long beans and some fresh veggies on the side. The meat was dried, crisp and crunchy, and not so salty compared to the smoked duck. It was not exceptional good but just averagely good in my opinion.

Living and Working in Qatar:
Qatar is a land of fascinating contrasts. Endless stretches of desert flank modern towns; sleek four-wheel-drive Land Cruisers share the desert roads with lumbering camels; and sophisticated malls exist side-by-side with the traditional souks (traditional Arab open-air marketplaces).
Surrounded by clear, shallow waters on three coasts, Qatar has, as neighbors, Saudi Arabia to the west and the United Arab Emirates to the southeast. Although Qatar is one of the smallest Arab states in the Gulf region, it has a big heart, huge ambitions, and reputation for hospitality that reaches far beyond its borders. Doha has managed to transform itself into a modern city without losing its traditional heritage.
Qatar is rich in oil and gas reserves and has one of the world's highest GDP per capita incomes. The state reinvests much of this wealth in the development of its health education sectors, acknowledging that the country's greatest resource is its people. Qatar may be one of the safest places you will ever visit. The crime rate is extremely low and it is safe to walk out alone, even at night, or to take taxis or buses. You will find residents more than willing to offer directions if you get lost. Qataris are proud of their heritage and the country's achievements, and will be delighted to explain their culture, traditions and history. Adding to Qatar's cultural fabric is the large population of expatriate residents; hence there is a rich multicultural and ethnic flavor in every aspect of daily life.
Sport has played an increasingly important role in Qatar's development, which is bolstered by the number of prestigious international events held annually in the country. The 15th Asian Games Doha 2006 was the largest multi-sport event ever hosted in the region so far. Other notable sports events that have taken place in Qatar are the 2011 AFC Asian Cup Finals, and the Qatar Ladies Tennis Open and Mens Tennis Open are annual events, as is cycling's Tour of Qatar. On December 2nd, 2012, Qatar won its bid to host the 2022 World Cup.
HMC - HAMAD MEDICAL CORPORATION HMC is the largest employer in Qatar. With over 20,000 staff it is one the largest health providers in the Middle East. The organization is an integrated and growing health care delivery system that currently provides 90 -95% of acute and sub-acute care services in Qatar. It continues to grow as the population of Qatar increases. This is reflected by the volume of ambulance calls, home healthcare visits, day surgeries, emergency department visits and in-patient admissions which are all rising year-on-year. The Corporation was the first public healthcare system outside the United States to achieve Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation for all hospitals simultaneously. JCI accreditation is based on quality and safety across all clinical and management functions. HMC is also the first hospital system in the Middle East to achieve institutional accreditation from the Accreditation Council of Graduate Medical Education - International (ACGME-I), which demonstrates excellence in the way medical graduates are trained through residency, internship and fellowship programs. HMC groups its front line care services into three groups: Tertiary Hospitals, General Hospitals and Continuing Care. The groups are based around patient pathways in order to concentrate specialist expertise. Tertiary Hospitals Group consists of 4 hospitals: 1.

Areas of specialty include: Cardiology, Cardiothoracics, Non Invasive Cardiac Surgery, Cardiac Intermediate and Intensive Care and Emergency Care. General Hospitals Group (3 hospitals): 1. Opened in 2005, Al Khor Hospital provides healthcare services to the growing population in the northern region of Qatar. With 110 beds, the hospital's Areas of specialty include: General Medicine, General Surgery, Emergency Medicine, Pediatrics and Obstetrics. 2. Al Wakra Hospital opened in 2012.

Uncharted Movie Release Date Confirmed
All that we ask is that Drake gets played by Nathan Fillion or Jensen Ackles now that we know when 'Uncharted' will be hitting theaters.
Seth Gordon's 'Uncharted' film has settled on the release date of June 10, 2016, according to Hollywood Reporter. 'Uncharted's script was written by David Guggenheim, best known for writing 'Waiting for Superman' and 'Gracie'.
The film's executive producers will be Charles Roven, Alex Gartner and Arad Gartner. Seth Gordon, director of 'Horrible Bosses', claims that he expects to start shooting 'Uncharted' in early 2015 and acknowledged that his team was eyeing Mark Wahlberg to star as Drake. While Wahlberg's name will put people unfamiliar with the game series in seats at the theaters, we feel that it's an absolutely horrible fit (think 'Max Payne') -- if Nathan Drake has a Boston accent, we're done with video game movies.
Our best choices to star as Nathan Drake would have to be Nathan Fillion, of 'Firefly' and 'Castle' fame, or Jensen Ackles from 'Supernatural'.

McAlinden Family
This was a really lovely event. We were asked to play an 18th, 21st, 50th, 80th and a 25th wedding anniversary. Lots of people ask us to play large parties. I think when you have lots of big birthdays or special occasions falling in one year it makes sense to create one big event.
When Billy & Chris got married 25 years ago, their first dance was Bryan Adams, everything I do. They asked us if we could learn it for them which we did. And I have to say I got a lump in my throats as all of their friends, family and children circled round them to relive the moment. I've said before it's an honour to be invited to see events like this and this was no exception.
Here's to many more happy years for all of the McAlinden clan.
A mini festival site was created in the back garden. We played under the stars and were very grateful to Mother Nature when she stayed dry for the evening!
