Emergency Action Needed!!!!
NOW is working very hard to be a voice for women's rights with our Senate leadership and keep the Supreme Court from becoming ultra-conservative. NOW members and activists from around the country have been at NOW headquarters in D.C. working 24/7.
The newspapers say there hasn't been enough "opposition." What happens on the Supreme Court is a reflection of either a completely weakened Democratic Party or the will of the American people. It is not looking good for those of us who hold dear the long-fought legal advancements made in women's, civil and worker's rights — but there is one last thing you all can do. Get on your phones immediately and call Seantors Schumer and Clinton and tell them to request a "one week delay" of the Judiciary Committee vote. They must be granted this request. It is mandatory that they are granted the delay, just for the asking. Also, tell them that they must not let the democratic leadership allow for a "time certain" vote on the floor.
This is our last chance for a Filibuster. If we can't get a Filibuster, we will be stuck with Alito on the Supreme Court. The one week delay will give us time to get a Filibuster, but without it, essentially a NO vote is not good enough. Please do this immediately, even though it is the weekend, leave a message on their phone. If their phone are shut off, fax them or email them. Don't delay. this needs to be done immediately!
Dear Senator Schumer:
Having closely followed the hearings for Samuel Alito's confirmation, I am writing to ask you to do everything you can to stop his confirmation. I believe his unquestioning support of executive power amounts to extraordinary circumstance. Please request a "one week delay" of the Judiciary Committee vote on Samuel Alito's nomination; and please do not agree to a "time certain" vote on the floor. In the longer term, please work for a filibuster of Judge Alito's nomination, and should that fail, please vote "no" on his nomination. Thank you in advance for upholding the Constitution.

Additional information
Stem cells respond to differentiation signals such as cytokines and growth factors, which regulate the expression of lineage specific genes. This results in differentiation of pluripotent embryonic or multipotent adult stem cells into mature somatic cells with high specialization. One such process is the ongoing formation of blood cells throughout life called hematopoiesis. Hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow are able to both proliferate and differentiate into various blood lineage cells in a precise and tightly regulated manner.
However, the molecular process underlying physiologic and malignant hematopoiesis remains incompletely understood. In these studies we identified several genes, transcription factors and pathways, which may influence the differentiation of hematopoietic progenitors into mature monocytes. We also established in vitro erythroid and monocyte differentiation protocols, which enable us to model hematopoiesis in vitro both under physiologic and malignant conditions.
Further, we show that B cells in chronic lymphocytic leukemia accumulate at the stage of cytokinesis exit. Overall, our the data included in these studies give new insight to the regulation of human hematopoietic development.

There are so many ways to workout nowadays. We all have a workout of choice. We want it to suit our busy schedule, to suit our personal goals of keeping fit, to suit our body strength and weakness.
Many more women are now opting for running workouts, which have many benefits including but not limited to:
– Saving on a gym membership.
– Can be done at any time of the day; you can pick the moment when you feel like working out the most, jump into your running shoes and go.
– Gives a sense of great freedom and lets you enjoy the outdoors.
– It clears up the mind.
– It gives your skin a better glow thanks to the heart pumping during the run.
Running is a very enjoyable workout and it definitely greatly improves your level of fitness.
When talking about the relationship between running and your skin, you need to consider different elements.
During a running workout, you will sweat quite a bit. Sweating is very good to release toxins from your body, on the other hand it could cause a sweat rash.
A sweat rash can be more common than you think. It normally forms between the folds of the skin for lack of ventilation, friction or humidity.
Weather conditions as also need to be taken into account. Strong sun or wind can have great impact on your beauty.
It is very important to protect your skin accordingly before getting ready for a run. Wear sun screen, moisturise your skin. Do consider wearing running clothes that cover up your arms and legs if needed. Wear a cap that will shade your face from direct sunlight.
It is also very important to follow a beauty routine after a running workout.
Your body worked hard, your skin sweated a lot and you might have developed a skin rash.
Follow these simple five beauty tips for your post-running workout care:
Your face is the part of your body that will probably be most affected by your running workout. It will be exposed to the sun, you might have wiped sweat off by using your hands causing irritation or dust could have made its way to your cheeks.
It is very important to cleanse your face skin thoroughly. You can use a gentle cleanser like the FRE Hydrating Facial Cleanser. It will work wonders on your skin by leaving your workout glow and taking away all the impurities produced by the sweat.
Stick to this habit and gently cleanse your face immediately after each running workout. Your skin and you will be grateful for it.
Your feet deserve a treat as well, especially because they are the ones having a very rough time during your workout. They are closed inside your shoes and are probably most likely to develop a sweat rush between toes or blister or even calluses.
Even if you are wearing a very good pair of running shoes, your feet will very likely sweat a lot.
As a good habit remove your shoes and socks as soon as you get home. Let your feet breath. Let them soak in warm soapy water for about 5-10 minutes and you can use a pumice to soften and thin any calluses.
After drying, you can massage them with moisturiser. Your feet will be extremely grateful and happy.
If you sweat a lot during your run, it is a good custom to wash your running clothes after each workout. If you have sensitive skin, you will be less likely to develop a sweat rash if you wear clean workout clothes.
It happens to all of us; we come back from a run and start doing all sort of things before getting in the shower.
Especially if we went for an early morning run, we come back hungry and decide to have breakfast before showering.
It is actually not the best approach. It is best to have a shower immediately after each running workout. It is not good for the skin to let the sweat drying on it as it can contribute to spots and it clogs out the pore.
It is best to freshen up immediately. Take care of any sweat rash, apply some moisturiser and wear some clean clothes.
If you are suffering from a sweat rash opt for some soft cotton clothes that are loose on the skin to avoid rubbing against the rash.
After these simple steps you will feel on top of the world and will be able to enjoy your breakfast much more.
It is very important to keep a healthy and balanced diet when working out. Carbs and protein are very good for your muscles.
You should not wait too long to eat after a run, especially after a long run. Your body needs to replenish energy quickly.
The sooner after a run you eat, the more you minimize soreness and stiffness in your muscles.

It's taking me some time, but I am gradually working my way through a collection of novels (with a few non-fiction), which were published by the Companion Book Club in the 1950s. For several years, my parents subscribed to this book club and amassed quite a collection, some of which I have disposed of. The latest title I have read is by Daphne Du Maurier (1907-1989) and is called "Mary Anne".
This is a fictionalized account of the life of Du Maurier's great great grandmother Mary Anne Clarke, nee Thompson (1776-1852). The first chapter concerns what is in effect the end of the story, a clever writer's ploy to get the reader interested in all the characters who will appear later in the story. Mary's childhood is the subject of chapter 2 where she shows early signs of being able to stand on her own two feet. Her stepfather, being a proof reader for a printer of halfpenny pamphlets, falls ill and is unable to work for a period. Mary Anne, a quick learner, knew how to imitate his writing and, more importantly, how to correct copy. In this way she did the proof reading and saved the family from ruin whilst her father was ill.
Before her 18th birthday she had married a stonemason, named Joseph Clarke, a man who came from rich parents who wanted him to learn a trade rather than rely entirely on his inheritance. Needless to say that he didn't get on well as a stonemason and eventually went bankrupt. Mary Anne decided to leave him with her children and went on to have several liaisons with prominent men. Then she came to the attention of Frederick, Duke of York, who took her as his mistress. As the Duke was at that time Commander in Chief of the army, she was able to sell commissions with the Duke of York's knowledge. As Mary Anne had led the Duke to believe that she was a widow, the sudden unwelcome appearance of Joseph prompts the Duke to cut ties with her and take another mistress.
The book reads just like a novel. It was only the rather inconclusive ending that led me to wonder if it might be a fictionalised biography. "Mary Anne ", first published in the 1950s, is still available as a paperback or ebook published by Little, Brown.
The UK belongs to others
"The fat cats are getting fatter" – so runs the headline to a feature in the 'i' paper for November 21st. This seems to be a symptom of increasing interest, cultivated by such campaigning organisations as '38 degrees' and 'We Own It,' in who runs our public services and more importantly who owns them. A new book "Private Island: why Britain now belongs to someone else" by James Meek is possibly part of this trend. It makes sobering reading. Each chapter deals with the major industries which were previously in public hands, but have now been sold off to or are being run by hedge funds, individual investors and even publicly owned industries from other countries.
Beginning with postal services, Meek describes the situation in Holland where postal services are now run by three (previously 4) different companies. Some areas might have up to 3 postal deliveries a day, each from a separate postal company. He visits a postal worker at her home where she has to sort the mail allocated to her before delivering it round the streets, when she has the time. She admits that she is getting behind and a backlog is mounting up. The pay isn't good either: apparently postal workers' jobs are advertised as being suitable for part timers, retired people or students. Could our Royal Mail soon be like that?
Meek goes on to deal with Britain's railways, water supply, electricity, health and housing. It's a sorry tale of mismanagement, greed, and lowering standards, but it's much more complex than that. Here are just a few examples of the consequences of the privatization: according to Meek, EDF, one of the major electricity suppliers in the UK is actually a publicly owned French company; the privatized company Railtrack (before it went under and was replaced by Network Rail) was actually planning to re-signal the West Coast main line using a totally untried and untested system called "moving block"; Thames Water is currently owned by an investment consortium headed by an Australian investment bank (only one of the several members of the consortium is based in the UK). By the way Meek does of course admit that mismanagement is not confined to the private sector, but his main message is that keeping those industries could have avoided some of the worst excesses of the new companies and also that our national assets such as electricity and water should not end up in foreign hands.
As if to underline all this, a headline in the same edition of the 'i' newspaper yesterday read "Revealed: huge profits from public services end up in foreign hands". This book is a real eye opener, though many who read it will only have their suspicions confirmed. It makes gripping reading too, unlike some other titles on this topic. James Meek has also written a number of novels and some short stories, so he knows how to put a sentence together. Highly recommended.

Goldman Sachs Group Inc. GS, +2.20% estimates the new tax legislation could reduce its fourth quarter earnings by about $5 billion, according to a Friday filing, mainly due to the newly enacted repatriation tax for cash and assets held overseas.
The disclosure means the bank could post a steep loss for the quarter. Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters had expected fourth-quarter earnings of $2.08 billion.
The company said about two-thirds of the reduction would be due to the repatriation tax, which allows companies to bring cash and assets held overseas to the U.S. by paying a one-time tax ranging from 8% on illiquid assets to 15.5% on cash and cash equivalents.
The implementation of a territorial tax system and the remeasurement of U.S. deferred tax assets at lower enacted corporate tax rates will also reduce earnings, the company said.

(Cross-posted from Writers Gone Wild)
Hi y'all,
It's a fly-by post today, I'm afraid–especially since it's practically Friday and I'm supposed to have posted this on Thursday. Ooops. Apparently time moves differently when you're chock-full of antihistamines….
So rather than a post about anything in particular, I'm posting little sound-type-bytes of hopefully interesting stuff *g*
1) Remember my first independently published book, The Crystal Warrior? Well, since I last posted about it when it was first released in around August last year, it's had some wonderful 5-stars reviews:
"The chemistry between these two jumped off the page, and there was no putting The Crystal Warrior aside until I'd made it all the way through. Loved it from the first page to the last!" ~ InTheBook
"The sexy alpha male hero had me hooked from the beginning and I loved the sassy heroine who tamed him (just enough). The plot unfolded at a fast page-turner pace. Finding The Crystal Warrior was like finding a Paranormal Romance Gem. I can't wait for the next book in the series." ~ BookLover1960
"… an intelligent, fast, action packed read with a feisty, sassy heroine Chalcedony and a really hunky hero, Wulfenite. This book has it all including laugh out loud humor, danger, twists and turns, and both protagonists have gut wrenching choices to be made that leave you wondering right to the very end."~ rowenamaywrites
"… the author has crafted [this story] with enough emotion, suspense and twists that I found it hard to put down. It's easy to see why it won the Clendon Award! I sure hope Ms. Anderson doesn't make us wait too long for the sequel!" ~ Anne Kane
"… everything about it was beautifully crafted. Characters felt real – even ancient warrior Wulf – and I loved the interaction between modern day independent heroine, Chalcey, and her hero. There was humour, angst, passion, the works! ~ Jennifer Lynne
2) Being 90,000+ words, I've decided to raise the price from $2.99 to $3.99.
So if you'd like to give The Crystal Warrior–and/or Book Two of the series, Ruby's Dream–a try, then now's good *g*. (Note that as at today, the prices have been raised on Smashwords and already rolled out to iTunes, but the lower $2.99 price still applies to Barnes & Noble, Amazon, Sony, Diesel, and All Romance eBooks.)
3) Can't remember The Crystal Warrior from a bar of soap? Don't worry, I'm not at all offended. August was a long time ago *g*
Here's the blurb:
She's a dancer, and the most important thing in her life right now is the success of her new dance studio. He's an alien Crystal Warrior with one big-ass curse hanging over him. In a moment of weakness she lets him seduce her. Now they're magically bonded and his life is in her hands. (Winner of the Romance Writers of New Zealand Clendon Award)
Chalcedony (Chalcey) has given up on men. Who's got time for all that angsty dating crap when she's got a new dance studio to run? Then she's given a piece of wulfenite crystal and Lord Wulfenite, Keeper of the Shifting Sands fief, literally pops out of the crystal and plants one on her. Wulf is the man of her dreams… or at least, dressed like an ad for We Love Leather, with killer abs and delectable pectorals, he sure looks like the man of her dreams. But if there's one thing Chalcey's learned: If it looks too good to be true, then it sure as heck probably is too good to be true! And Wulf proves to be no exception.
Wulf doesn't stop to wonder why he's so attracted to Chalcedony. All he knows is he's finally escaped from a centuries-long hell and he wants this woman – more than anything he's wanted in his entire life. Chalcey doesn't stand a chance. Before she realizes what's at stake, she's bonded with him and his life is in her hands. She knows she should walk away and leave him to his fate. No way is she planning on getting stuck with a guy who used to steal women for breeding stock! But the more she learns about Wulf and his past, the more conflicted she becomes.
Only when the Crystal Guardian's curse threatens everything Chalcey's worked so hard for, does she finally realize what's truly important. But even if she can figure out how to save Wulf from his fate, it might be too late.

4) Have you checked out the calorie-free 99c eBook treats on offer at the Book Lovers Buffet yet?
There are around 140 eBooks on offer — all 99c each — from a huge variety of authors, including moi. (Sale ends January 15th so don't miss out. I've already bought a heap *g*.)
Speaking of 99c eBooks, my paranormal YA, Freaks of Greenfield High, is included in the Book Lovers Buffet YA and paranormal sections. Just sayin'…
5) Freaks has also garnered some great reviews since it released in September last year:
"If you liked Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles you will love this YA book. I devoured this book in two nights. It totally played out like a movie in my head. Anderson's descriptions of cyborg Jay were amazing. It was fast paced, riveting, real teen language that I loved and I didn't want it to end. I seriously hope Anderson will write a sequel featuring more cyborgs." ~ Renee Pace (Nitty Gritty YA Writings)
"[ Jay and Tyler's] personal growth as well as their relationship issues are true to life–both heartbreaking and heart warming. This author has become a must read for me. Although this book is a YA, I found I couldn't put it down and read into the early morning hours." ~ L.J. Charles
"This book has one of the best heroines ever. When I started the book, I was just going to read a little before going to bed. I ended up finally shutting off my Kindle at 2am. I finished the book the next night. A really enjoyable story. It moved fast, and I think adults will like this as well as teens." ~ E.S. Rose
"There are three things I'd like to see more of in fiction: ninja, bionics, and cyborgs. Maree Anderson has provided us with the latter, enclosing it in a YA tale of…well, coming to terms with feelings, but the author takes that sap and executes it superbly so it's no way near as cheesy as it sounds. Read this, and you'll understand why Jay Smith is so awesome – she's my new favourite heroine." ~ Tez Says
But the reeeeally big news is….
6) Freaks of Greenfield High was chosen in December by the Wattpad crew to be one of their featured stories. Huge coup because it means mega-exposure, and a way for me to get my story out there to my target audience.
As at about five minutes ago, Freaks has had more than 103,000 reads from Wattpad readers, and more comments and votes than I can poke a stick at. The feedback has been incredible and the support I've had from the Wattpad community continues to astound me. Looks like I'm going to be writing a sequel to keep the Wattpaders happy *g*
7) If you can't remember what the heck Freaks of Greenfield High was even about (hey, it was released in September, after all) here's the blurb:
When a teenage cyborg is forced to hide out at a small-town high school, the unthinkable happens: she falls in love. (Winner of the Maryland Romance Writers Reveal Your Inner Vixen contest, YA category.)
Jay's a cyborg who looks just like normal teenage girl. She's super-strong, super-smart, and she can even appear to grow and age like a human. When a covert organization intent on using Jay as a weapon comes after her, she needs to find a place where she can blend in. Greenfield High seems perfect… except that the boys all think she's totally hot and keep hitting on her, and she has no clue how to handle the attention. Who knew high school could be so perilous?
To add to her confusion she's evolving – experiencing human emotions for the first time. And when she encounters ex-jock-turned-outcast Tyler, he sends her logical brain into a spin. She's just starting to get the hang of this girlfriend/boyfriend thing when her pursuers track her down. Now's sooo not the time for a cyborg to fall in love and get all emotional!
And finally, just for fun (and because we're all grownups here on Writers Gone Wild)….
8) This from Jim Johnston:
"There are some literary subjects that have become total cliches and an attempt to describe an erect penis is one of them." Click here to read more "On the subject of penises".
WARNING: Do not attempt to drink coffee–or anything for that matter–while reading this or you will be sorry.
Cheers, and Happy New Year!

Rockstar Music Review- Rahman's & Mohit's masterpiece
The music of Rockstar is like a journey. Every songs takes the journey ahead. Every song is an experiment and I shall say an experiment very well done. A R Rahman sets a benchmark, sets a standard for others. Besides Rahman, this is Mohit Chauhan's album. Mohit shows what he is capable of. Each song has a variation and Mohit Chauhan adapts to each variation marvelously. Rockstar has everything. From Rock to Indian traditional to romantic to Bollywood to international music with Punjabi, Sufi and Indian flavours. A R Rahman will leave you spell bound with this. The album is not the usual Rahman but still typical Rahman. You need to own this album for sure. Continue reading

SQS, organiser of QA&TEST Conference, has the pleasure to launch the second edition of the conference QA&TEST Safety and Security, focused on how to approach, in an integrated way, safety and security aspects.
It is a fact that, nowadays it is not even possible to think of a system being safe without being secure; systems are increasingly more complex and we must therefore use technologies and approaches to address this complexity. This is the context where the Conference QA&TEST Safety and Security has emerged, as a response to this growing need in the industry with the profound analysis that the subject requires.
Thus, QA&TEST Safety and Security 2nd edition will be held on March 26th and 27th of 2020 in Madrid.
Be sure to stay tuned for all the updates and please, don't hesitate to contact us for any other information you might need.

Olivia Squire talks neighbourhood levelling-up and the (re)definition of creativity with the man behind Shoreditch's forthcoming members-club-slash-hotel, The Curtain.
Michael Achenbaum is the kind of man I can't imagine has any problem getting doors to open for him. One of the founders of NYC's slick Gansevoort brand – a game-changer at the time of its launch in 2004 – he disregarded conventional wisdom to open the city's first urban resort, followed by the Meatpacking District's first high-end hotel, long before the area became a magnet for luxury logos and boutique eateries. Boundaries are clearly not something that scare Achenbaum, so it's no surprise that for his latest project he's tackling a whole host of new firsts: his first project in London; first non-Gansevoort-branded property; and, crucially, first members' club-slash-hotel.
The 120-room Curtain – named not to evoke any hush-hush attitude, but after the old Curtain theatre that used to reside in this quarter of East London – is out to define a whole new category of luxury within the neighbourhood, with nine floors of differently programmed spaces segmented for the public, members and hotel guests. When I donned a hard hat for an early look at the property in February (current launch is set for May), an almost obsessive commitment to quality shone from every corner and collaborator, many of who were on site overseeing progress. Chandeliers hang from the ceilings of the public bathrooms. A column is studded with what, on closer inspection, turn out to be 2p coins. The projector in the screening room is, I'm informed, the best available, at Achenbaum's insistence.
Whilst still experiencing the chaos of all hotels during the last stage of development, a definite Art Deco-meets-gentlemen's club vibe is beginning to take shape, tapping into the bowler-hats-and-broadsheets era of London members' clubs past (think whiskey lockers and a dark wood-panelled gym). However, there are enough surprises and subtleties to keep modern tastes piqued, although I'm on pain of death (or at least of never having my membership approved) if I reveal any. To recap a rumour, though: the act booked for the launch party was Prince, until unfortunate events intervened, and they're confident of an 'equally big' name to headline in his place. I also witnessed a particularly irreverent addition to the ground floor that will certainly leave an impression on future visitors.
Retaining the capacity to surprise is certainly at the top of Achenbaum's agenda in an area experiencing a surge of hotel development. From the rooftop we can see citizenM; Nobu Shoreditch is due to open around the corner this summer; and the venue for our conversation is the nearby Ace, another American import that has comfortably become part of the fabric of the neighbourhood since arriving in 2013. The need to bring something different to the table is perhaps what consolidated the venture into members' clubs, where exclusivity and the curation of people and spaces are what generate the unexpected.
"I have a real sense that everything has been commoditised," Achenbaum explains. "There's much more of a focus on what's in the neighbourhood and the experience of a hotel's public areas, rather than the hotel rooms…I really want people to find their home in the space." How visitors experience the property will depend on their 'status' (i.e. whether they are hotel guests, members or the general public), but the emphasis is on creating intrigue rather than putting up barriers – as Achenbaum says, "we want to create a sense of privacy and exclusivity without making it pretentious…for people to join with an expectation that we are always going to have something that they weren't expecting."
Naturally, this means that The Curtain is keeping a lid on certain elements of the design and programming so that guests can experience them for the first time in person, not through a press release. For members in particular, the branding is shrouded in mystery – all that Achenbaum would reveal is that "the members' club is almost like walking through a secret entrance that has another business as its front, reminiscent of La Bodega Negra [Soho's notorious restaurant that masquerades as a sex shop on the exterior]".
"If we really want to give the best experience to people, we want them to be around people that are of different backgrounds, cultures, careers and personalities. That's how you build that whole verticality of what's out there in the neighbourhood."
Branding aside, though, "it's the ability to interact with really interesting people, i.e. our membership, that will change the perspective of hotel guests." Achenbaum is very aware of the comparisons being made with existing members' clubs in the area, particularly Shoreditch House, but is keen to stress that The Curtain has a different interpretation of creativity that will inform how it selects its members. "There's room for us all," he says. "If we really want to give the best experience to people, we want them to be around people that are of different backgrounds, cultures, careers and personalities. That's how you build that whole verticality of what's out there in the neighbourhood."
Unlike other clubs that may conform to a narrower definition of creativity, for Achenbaum "You could take a banker who is on the board of the Museum of London. That person's a creative, because they are participating in things that are artistic, creative and forward thinking. That's what we believe creativity is: being a leader in your field." For this reason, he has no problem with people talking shop, because "people want to do business with their friends".
Consolidating The Curtain's initial membership will follow this model of organic, friendly growth. Hosting a dinner for like-minded people, a mix of long-time collaborators and relative strangers, Achenbaum was delighted to discover an attitude of "really caring about the culture and experience. That mentality is the kind of person I want bringing other people to the club…for me, the most important question to ask people is 'what inspires you?'"
This dedication to fostering inspiration and collectively sharing and taking care of the experience underlies The Curtain's vision for its members. Consequently, celebrity isn't something they will be actively chasing. "Fame is a very transient thing and doesn't necessarily mean that person is culturally the right fit. Moreover, it's almost irrelevant whether they're famous or not because it would be inappropriate to utilise it: what you do within the confines of our membership club is meant to be private."
"For me, the most important question to ask people is 'what inspires you?'"
Nevertheless, the celebrity question opens up an interesting debate about the nature of 'new Shoreditch'. In an area where anti-gentrification protests took to the streets against a fairly innocuous café selling expensive cereal, for some the arrival of a starry members' club with an imposing price point of entry is both a cause for celebration and concern. When I ask Achenbaum about this tension, he firmly replies "I don't think it's my job to debate gentrification. The reality is it's inevitable. To be upset that someone opens a store where the price point is $2,000 for a t-shirt: then don't shop in that store. It's not my job to debate the appropriateness of products coming in."
"What is my job is to provide a service to the locals that are established here; to be on good terms with the people that are part of the culture that exists today; and to provide a service for our clients that are incoming. I do believe that there is a client that wants to come into this neighbourhood that really has an expectation of a better room product, better level of service, better food product, and just a better version of what some others are already doing."
"I don't think it's my job to debate gentrification… What is my job is to provide a service to the locals that are established here; to be on good terms with the people that are part of the culture that exists today; and to provide a service for our clients that are incoming."
If that sounds a little ruthless, Achenbaum is keen to emphasise that he wants to "push the limits a little bit, but not push so much that it's not appropriate for the neighbourhood. We're super-friendly and we're super-supportive, and there are definitely businesses in the neighbourhood that we're going to bring in-house".
These collaborations will no doubt have a big part to play in keeping The Curtain's programming fresh and relevant. Returning to the idea of investing in the experience of public space, Achenbaum has brought on a team of inspirational, industry-leading names to help realise his vision; "not just great brands, but great people who have a great product and will add to the experience". Star trainer and founder of The Vault Gym, Jon Squirrel, will ensure the fitness element of the property is truly aspirational, with cult spinning studio BOOM Cycle also bringing their brand of high-octane classes to the property.
"In today's world, being forced to stop and think is not the norm for most people."
Alongside The Curtain's creative team, rock-and-roll photographer Mick Rock is involved in the art programming, an eclectic mix of found pieces and original works by artists such as Banksy. On featuring the latter, Achenbaum comments, "Banksy represents the history of the area: we're not trying to make a statement about whether or not street art is current. More importantly, though, it's thought provoking, and in today's world, being forced to stop and think is not the norm for most people. We're non-politically affiliated, but having that opportunity to keep influencing a little bit, which Banksy definitely does: it's a wonderful message".
When I push him to reveal which element he is most excited about, however, he confesses "I think having a three-star chef come to London with us is such a feather in the cap of the entire project". Indeed, the arrival of Red Rooster, Michelin-starred chef Marcus Samuelsson's transplant of his successful Harlem restaurant in New York and his first launch in the UK, looks likely to be one of the biggest draws for hotel guests, members and the public alike.
Samuelsson's background, a mixture of Swedish and Ethiopian culture, is a seamless reflection of the patchwork of influences that have long defined Shoreditch's entrepreneurial spirit. Having known Samuelsson for 17 years, Achenbaum felt like the cultural and artistic relationship between Harlem and Shoreditch meant that this was the right moment to collaborate. "Working with Marcus, he says 'I want Africa, I want Northern European, I want Swedish, I want Harlem, I want London and specifically, I want Shoreditch!' So it's going to be a really interesting mix of pulling together the best of his soul food versions in combination with the influences of London and Northern Europe." In addition to Samuelsson fusing these influences in his culinary experimentations, the addition of a tequila bar and a 2am closing time mean that Red Rooster is likely to become the hot ticket for late night rendezvous (and a much more attractive option than a kebab).
"You use the word 'lifestyle', you use the word 'boutique': and what do they mean, at this point? They don't mean anything. It's just about experience."
For someone whose vision has been so pivotal in the design, programming and mindset of The Curtain, Achenbaum is reluctant to lay claim to the term 'rebel'. "I don't think that I'm trying necessarily to be rebellious or be different to be different. I think those who think they're geniuses tend not to be geniuses – it's the collaborative effort of our team that makes things work." Similarly, he doesn't believe that making waves in hospitality is a matter of coining buzzwords, but instead of creating a path for people to live in the moment.
"You use the word 'lifestyle', you use the word 'boutique': and what do they mean, at this point? They don't mean anything. It's just about experience. You have to be able to bring yourself back to the moment, to enjoy that experience, not sit looking at your phone and swiping: that's not living life. A hard-learned lesson for someone who does what I do, because I always feel like I have 50 different plates up in the air…!" And with that, I leave this consummate plate-spinner to continue blurring the lines of what a hotel can be.

Author's Take
If I had to pick between this pair and the all-Black pair, I'd probably switch it up and go with the all-Black pair. With that being said, this pair is still pretty dope.

It is Friday and after a long week, catching up with friends for coffee, drink or dinner is a great idea. While that sounds like a perfect de-stressing plan, what to wear might be giving you a bit of stress?
Outfit: Simply opt for a little black dress as LBDs never fail to fit in for most occasions and across body types.
Accessories: As far as accessories are concerned, keep it simple to fit into the summery mood. A watch and a few trinkets might add a sporty quotient that is so much in fashion currently.
Shoes: If you are not in the mood of too much bling, a simple nude pair of pumps can take you from morning to night. Just step into a smart pair of shoes that feel comfortable as well?
Make-up: Keep the makeup subtle with soft smokey eyes and a bright pout. Hint of blush on the cheek will keep the look fresh.
Hairstyle: The beach waves are trending this season and you can glam up instantly by getting your hair loosely tonged. For a cute, girly finish, you can pin up the flicks on one side with interesting hair accessories. Finish with a holding spray to keep looking stunning all evening.

MINI Cooper S Convertible R52 2005 Road Test
When I tested an R50 MINI Cooper back in 2002 I reckoned it was the most fun car there was. Not the fastest by a long way. It didn't need to be. The combination of size, grip and handling simply made it hugely enjoyable to drive at any speed it was capable of, even fairly slowly. The R52 MINI Cooper S convertible is not the same thing at all.
It's a lot faster. It's a lot stiffer. And, with the top down, it's more like driving a very powerful go-kart.
Some aspects are quite nostalgic. The supercharger whines at about the same pitch as the gearbox did on an original Mini. It's very cute to look at. You sit close to the ground. And on 17" wheels it bangs and crashes almost as badly as my old Mini van with full race suspension and 10" wheels.
Of course, with 163bhp through a 6-speed box it gets to 100 faster than my old Mini gasped to 50. The engine has a lovely 'linear' power delivery. No 'all or nothing' like some turbocharged engines. The torque is there for you from very low revs in all gears, making the car easy and pleasant to drive in all conditions, including traffic.
And you can whack it round corners at the same astonishing speeds you used to be able to do in a Mini Cooper 1,293 S. Except, whereas in the old 'S' you'd be drifting slightly sideways, the new 'S' will grip a lot longer and assuming you don't go completely bonkers there's never any fear of understeering straight on into a ditch, a tree or, worse still, an oncoming car.
It's quite hard work, though. The steering is very high geared and heavy, so you only have to twitch the small, thick-rimmed wheel to make a turn. And it takes a while to get comfortable with the relationship between the controls. Even though the short gearlever changes neatly and precisely, the car would be much better with a DSG transmission and steering wheel button shifters.
I'm not sure what mpg I got, but after a partial re-fill I reckon well over 30mpg, maybe 35mpg partly due to the reasonably long gearing of 24mph/1,000rpm in 6th.
Instead of just a tiny bonnet, the whole front lifts up like those fibreglass conversions you used to be able to get for original Minis. Everything underneath is easily accessible without scraping your knuckles. But they have gone and modernised the original retro dash, so the speedo and rev counter are now on a binnacle half hidden by the steering wheel and the circle in the centre contains the fuel gauge, boost gauge and oil and water temperature gauges. At night, though, the instruments have nice, warm orange glow.
The convertible top works brilliantly, in two stages, and all you have to do is press a button, twice. Up, it's very solid indeed with what looks like a roll bar over your head and a solid piece behind the screen, I guess to protect against anything penetrating the canvas. Top lowered, I just caught the last of the summer sunshine. It feels and looks nicest with all the windows down, but on a return trip from the coast my hands went blue, so I don't recommend long-distance topless winter drives.
Don't be deceived by those neat looking rear passenger roll hoops. Up close, they're cheap and nasty chromed plastic. (Why did they do that?) But you can get a couple of people in the back, which you can't with an MX5.
And that's the MINI convertible's only real rival. The Beetle convertible looks good too, but it's an altogether softer, far less sporty conveyance. I guess in some people's eyes the new Micra CC has enough cuteness to compete against MINI One and plain Cooper convertibles. The 206CC is there too, but again nothing like as sporty and just doesn't have the MINI's cuteness.
But beware rich dads buying these cars for their daughters. Though you get away with Group 6 insurance for the MINI One convertible and Group 9 for the Cooper, the more aggressive Cooper S is an expensive Group 16.

Stokes was elected to the Bellevue City Council Friday, defeating Aaron Laing by 54 votes in a manual recount. That was an increase of three votes over Stokes' machine tally among 35,867 ballots. King County Elections said in a statement that technology has reduced but not eliminated errors. "We are still dependent upon people to perform tasks in coordination with technology." Stokes received 49.93 percent of the vote, Laing 49.76 and write-ins 0.31. A longtime member of committees supporting Bellevue schools and parks, Stokes will replace Grant Degginger, who did not run for re-election. Stokes will become part of a council minority that has supported Sound Transit's light-rail plans and that wants the city to fund road improvements to support redevelopment of the Bel-Red commercial district.

text: I get extremely annoyed the second this guy starts singing, which happens to be the same moment I discover what band he's from, a band I do not love at all. Also, there's the fact that he's too young to be taken seriously singing about what he does. What, oooh my feelings, oooh? Screw that! But wait, what's this? Why is he making me listen? Aw, c'mon! Is there really something here that could make this worth listening to? Oh, is he not trying to sound older and wiser than his age and experience? Is this actually… No… Charming? Good? Wait, we're still only on the fourth song, he's gonna fuck it up. (…) I have taken a pause, and by the second last song I'm still listening. Like a big brother would listen, or like I don't know what… It's still a bit too poetic for my instant liking, but at the same time I am positively not hating anymore. I'm guessing that by the next album I will dig this guy, and I promise that I will stay along for the ride!

Former Social Worker from Dept of Health and Human Services Joins the Fray Stealing from Elders
AUGUSTA, Maine --A former caseworker with the state Department of Health and Human Services has been jailed for 30 days for stealing more than $9,000 from elderly and incapacitated clients whose interests he was assigned to protect.
Albert Bouchard, 47, of Limestone, who pleaded guilty to theft, was sentenced Friday in Aroostook County Superior Court to two years in prison, with all but 30 days suspended. After his release, he faces five months of house arrest and two years of probation, a time in which he must perform 200 hours of community service.
Over a 15-month period in 2001 through 2003, Bouchard stole money from clients and used it to buy fine jewelry, electronics, gift certificates and furniture for himself, his family and his girlfriend.
"Albert Bouchard worked for the agency that is charged with protecting the elderly from predators like Albert Bouchard. He committed a gross abuse of the trust placed in him by the state to care for our most vulnerable citizens," Attorney General Steve Rowe said Tuesday in a statement detailing the thefts.
Bouchard charged a $300 digital camera to the account of an elderly woman with dementia and made several cash withdrawals from her account, Rowe said. While tapping another client's account to buy a $1,300 large screen television for his home, he delivered a used, 27-inch TV to the nursing facility at which the client was living.
Two other accounts belonging to clients with dementia were charged for several pieces of jewelry, including a $600 diamond anniversary ring and a $700 gold rope chain necklace. Bouchard delivered inexpensive substitutes to the clients, who were then living at nursing care facilities, Rowe said.
Gift certificates charged on three client accounts to the Aroostook Centre Mall in Presque Isle were given as Christmas gifts to Bouchard's then wife and children and his girlfriend and her children.
Bouchard entered his guilty plea in May, after a jury was selected and the day before he was scheduled to go to trial. He paid full restitution at the time of sentencing.
"What made this case especially egregious was the calculated and deceptive nature of the theft," Assistant Attorney General Leanne Robbin said.
She said the state has several elder exploitation cases in the prosecutorial pipeline, "but typically, these are not people who are licensed social workers for the state who are stealing from the elderly."
More common, she said, are cases involving theft by a family member or "someone who comes in as a housekeeper, and gets the person's trust -- and checkbook."
Robbin said she was unaware of any similar misdeeds by state caseworkers but noted that the Maine Bureau of Adult and Elder Services has initiated checks within its system to reduce that possibility.
"Bouchard's conduct unfairly tarnishes the reputation of the many other dedicated caseworkers who strive to care and protect the elderly," Rowe said
Titled and bold by blog master for emphasis
Glad the judges are getting tough on Elder abuse and he will serve time, I hope he doesn't get his old job back.
"typically, these are not people who are licensed social workers for the state who are stealing from the elderly."

Product Case Study: BlueStar®
Patients using BlueStar typically achieve a 1.7 to 2 points average decrease in HbA1c in the first 3 to 6 months of usage.
|Digital therapeutics deliver evidence-based therapeutic interventions to patients that are driven by high quality software programs to prevent, manage, or treat a medical disorder or disease. They are used independently or in concert with medications, devices, or other therapies to optimize patient care and health outcomes.
|Medical condition:
|Targets type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and weight management
|Target patient population:
|Patients with type 2 diabetes and possible co-morbidities of hypertension/obesity who are experiencing consistently elevated A1c values despite traditional interventions, and who struggle with managing the aspects of their diabetes
|What to expect:
|Lowers blood glucose levels for adults living with type 2 diabetes
|Indications for use:
|BlueStar® and BlueStar Rx® Systems are indicated for use by healthcare providers and their adult patients – aged 21 years and older – who have type 2 diabetes.
|Demonstrated through 37 different peer-reviewed, clinical publications, studies, and posters (including 2 multi-site, randomized controlled trials), patients experienced a drop in HbA1c of 2 points on average, improved medication adherence, and better glucose control.
|What to expect:
|Lowers blood glucose levels for adults living with type 2 diabetes.
|Patients can either use the mobile app or the web version of BlueStar. The mobile app uniquely works on- or off-line, to address the requirement for "always-on" support for FDA-mandated patient safety requirements.
Patients will be encouraged by 30,000+ automated, tailored, and unique coaching messages which empower users to make the most of every minute. Users will take in real-time therapeutic actions – including daily medication administration, physical activity, smart food choices, and psycho-social well-being – based on recommendations provided by the program that are driven by evidence-based guidelines.
|Risks & warnings:
|BlueStar is not currently indicated for patients with Type 1 diabetes, or who are under the age of 21, or who are currently pregnant, or who use a continuous glucose monitor.
|Place in therapy:
|Complementary to current therapies including pharmacologic-related, diet-related, exercise-related, or knowledge-related therapy pathways.
|Product description:
|BlueStar includes an always-on, fully-automated software coach; a SmartVisit™ report that goes to the patient's healthcare provider team via fax, email, or EMR; and a population management portal that allows an administrator to manage, review, report, survey, and dialog with patients or cohorts of patients.
|Prescription status:
|BlueStar does not require a prescription unless patients intend to use BlueStar with an insulin titration system.
|Patient access:
|Patients download the BlueStar Program through an app on the Apple or Google App Store. An enrollment code is generated for patients after their healthcare provider completes a prescription or enterprise makes it available (OTC).
Use of this product requires access to:
|Provider access:
|Healthcare providers may access the BlueStar SmartVisit report or Care Management Portal to monitor for weekly and monthly health trends, potential medication-related issues, and view patient-generated health data. BlueStar is also integrated with many major EMRs to ensure that data is securely shared with the patient record.
|Coverage options:
|BlueStar is typically paid for by insurance plans and employers.
|Product availability:
|BlueStar is available in:
Engaging users. Driving outcomes.
BlueStar uniquely offers highly tailored and clinically validated real-time coaching and longitudinal insights that are driven by an artificial intelligence expert system. BlueStar is also unique because it focuses on self management for the patient but also a strong connection to the patient's own care team – both critical to A1c reduction. It was the first digital therapeutic to undergo randomized controlled trials and obtain clearance from the FDA.
|Study Title
|WellDoc™ Mobile Diabetes Management Randomized Controlled Trial: Change in Clinical and Behavioral Outcomes and Patient and Physician Satisfaction
|Randomized controlled study; IRB-certified study
|The clinical evidence shows a 2.0 point mean A1C reduction for individuals living with type 2 diabetes who used BlueStar.
|Glycemic Control: Impact on Physician Prescribing Behavior
|Randomized controlled study; IRB-certified study
|The clinical evidence shows a 1.9-point mean A1C reduction for individuals living with type 2 diabetes who used BlueStar.

Apple Expands Amazon 'App Store' Battle to Kindle Fire
Apple has expanded its battle with Amazon over the term "app store" to include the retailer's newly released Kindle Fire tablet.
Though Amazon launched its store as the "Amazon AppStore for Android," Apple claims that Amazon has de-emphasized the "for Android" part in recent months, particularly around the Fire release.
"For example, when Amazon announced in late September 2011 that it would introduce a new hardware product named the Kindle Fire (the 'Fire'), Amazon promoted the Fire's ability to use Amazon's mobile software download service but omitted the 'for Android' phrase when using the APPSTORE mark," Apple said in a Wednesday filing with a California district court, a copy of which is available on PaidContent.org.
In 2008, Apple filed an application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to register the mark "App Store." By January 2010, the PTO published a public notice, which provided those who objected to the mark a chance to have their say. Microsoft objected, kicking off a legal battle between the two companies. When Amazon launched its Amazon Android AppStore in March, meanwhile, Apple filed suit, demanding that Amazon stop using the term.
Both Microsoft and Amazon have argued that the term "app store" a generic one, and does not apply exclusively to Apple's App Store.
In July, a California district judge denied Cupertino's request for an injunction against Amazon's AppStore. Apple failed to establish that its "App Store" mark is famous enough to be considered prominent or renowned, the court found. Essentially, people automatically think of Apple when someone says iPad, iPhone, or iPod, but the same association is not necessarily made with "app store."
The $199, 7-inch Amazon Kindle Fire, meanwhile, hit stores this week. Back in August, Forrester analyst Sarah Rotman Epps suggested that the Fire could be "the only credible iPad competitor in the market," but given the price differences between the Fire and the iPad, the $249 Nook Tablet is a more likely competitor.
For more, see PCMag's full reviews of the Kindle Fire, Nook Tablet, and iPad 2, as well as our Amazon Kindle Fire vs. B&N Nook Tablet vs. Nook Color: Spec Showdown and the Fire slideshow below.
