Uzbekistan's legal framework ostensibly prohibits censorship and guarantees freedom of speech and the right to information. In practice, however, such protections are systematically ignored by President Islam Karimov's autocratic government, which in 2014 implemented new restrictions on online content that further limited space for the free flow of information.
Legal Environment
Convictions for libel and defamation can result in fines and jail time, and publicly insulting the president is punishable by up to five years in prison. Journalists can also face legal penalties for "interference in internal affairs" and "insulting the dignity of citizens." Although a law granting access to information exists, it is not enforced. Journalists working for unaccredited foreign outlets or unregistered domestic outlets are not legally recognized as journalists and risk persecution by the government.
Virtually all local media outlets are linked directly or indirectly to the state, and the National Security Service actively manipulates press reports to present a carefully constructed image of the country, occasionally allowing limited criticism of local corruption. Widespread self-censorship is a serious problem, as investigative journalists fear reprisals in the form of harassment, loss of employment, or jail time. In September 2014, the government passed a law banning online content that is extremist, inaccurate, separatist, pornographic, or untrue, among other things. Several important provisions of the law are loosely worded, allowing for broad and arbitrary interpretations. Observers believed the law to be a reaction to the growing popularity of social-networking websites and blogs as platforms for free discussion.
Political Environment
Both government censorship and self-censorship are pervasive. State-owned telecommunications carrier Uztelecom maintains control over internet services in Uzbekistan, blocking access to the websites of foreign news organizations, human rights groups, and exile publications. Uznews.net, a Germany-based independent news portal that regularly published content critical of the Karimov government, announced its closure in December 2014. The website had suspended operations for "technical reasons" a month before the announcement, following the reported hacking of chief editor Galima Bukharaeva's computer and email account. Information acquired through the attack, including the names of Uznews contributors working inside Uzbekistan, was subsequently posted on various social-media websites. Bukharaeva attributed the attack to the Uzbek National Security Service.
In August 2014, a Facebook campaign emerged urging Uzbeks to send a message to the Karimov government by posting "Qorqmayman!" ("I am not afraid!"). The campaign page gained thousands of members, including former government officials, professors, and students, with one-third of the posts originating from within the country.
The few remaining independent journalists in Uzbekistan—most of whom contribute to foreign media outlets because local independent outlets are virtually nonexistent—continue to face pressure from Karimov's regime, including harassment, intimidation, assault, and detention. In June 2014, independent journalist Said Abdurakhimov (known under the pseudonym Sid Yanyshev) was convicted of the charges of working without accreditation and threatening social order, and fined 9.6 million soms ($4,000). The charges followed an article Abdurakhimov published on Fergana, a Moscow-based news portal, about displaced residents of Tashkent who had not been compensated for the demolition of their homes by the government. Media watchdogs noted several irregularities in the trial. Abdurakhimov's two court-appointed lawyers made no attempts to provide defense, and he was not permitted to present video evidence to contest incriminating witness testimonies. Following the trial, two of the five witnesses for the prosecution admitted to receiving scripted testimony.
Throughout 2014, the government targeted journalists and activists who covered or brought attention to taboo subjects. These topics include the ongoing feud between President Karimov and his daughter, Gulnara Karimova (under house arrest as of year's end), low living conditions and the lack of basic necessities, and international protest movements. In January, photographer Umida Akhmedova and eight others, including one journalist, staged a peaceful protest outside the Ukrainian Embassy in Tashkent in solidarity with the Euromaidan protest movement. Three days later, the participants were detained and questioned by the National Security Service without access to lawyers, and fined approximately $2,000. Three of the participants were sentenced to 15 days in jail.
Uzbekistan remains among the world's most notorious jailers of journalists and free expression activists. According to Human Rights Watch, at least three-dozen journalists, activists, writers, and intellectuals are being held in Uzbek jails and penal colonies as a result of their work. Muhammad Bekjanov and Yusuf Ruzimuradov of the opposition newspaper Erk have been imprisoned since March 1999, which makes them the longest-jailed reporters in the world, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists.
Economic Environment
The state dominates the media industry. Most broadcasting comes from four state-run television channels. Ownership of non-state media outlets is opaque, though journalists report that there is low public demand to make ownership structures transparent, as outlets generally report the same version of the news. The government controls most publishing houses and printing presses. A number of regional and local television and radio stations are privately owned, and a few private printing presses produce independent publications that avoid politically sensitive topics and have limited circulation. Low pay within Uzbekistan's media industry encourages journalists to accept bribes.
Approximately 43 percent of the population used the internet in 2014. The small minority of citizens who access foreign news outlets curtail state restrictions by using proxy servers. In spite of the relatively small internet penetration, social-media platforms and blogs have increasingly become spaces to critically discuss issues with state-provided services and to disseminate independent reporting. Uzbek state-owned media continue to warn audiences against the dangers of the internet, although authorities have simultaneously attempted to use alternative social-networking websites—such as Bamboo.uz, a platform similar to Twitter that was launched in Uzbekistan in February 2014—to combat the popularity of foreign platforms.
The country's leading mobile phone operator, Uzdunrobita, filed for bankruptcy in 2013 after a prolonged and unsuccessful bid to defend itself against tax evasion and antitrust charges. The case against Uzdunrobita—a subsidiary of the Russian telecommunications company Mobile TeleSystems (MTS)—highlights the hostile environment for foreign investors in the sector.

HA NOI (VNS) — Investors will be watching closely a visit by Chinese President Xi Jinping to Ha Noi this week for clues about the state of relations between Viet Nam and its largest trade partner.
If there is no negative news from this visit, the benchmark VN Index on the HCM Stock Exchange will likely rise to 610 points this week, BIDV Securities Corporation (BSC) wrote in its weekly forecast.
Global oil prices rose during the last three days of last week, and it that trend continues this week, it would help boost local energy companies, BSC said.
The benchmark VN Index on the HCM Stock Exchange slightly rose 0.4 per cent to close on Friday at 607.37 points. The index gained 0.9 per cent last week.
The HNX Index on the Ha Noi Stock Exchange inched up 0.3 per cent on Friday to close at 82.23 points. The northern index increased 0.8 per cent last week.
The US benchmark crude West Texas Intermediate (WTI) surged 7.8 per cent and the Brent crude jumped 5.9 per cent in three days to close last week to $46.59 a barrel and $49.56 a barrel.
Local energy stocks also made gains during those days. PetroVietnam Gas Corporation (GAS) was up 1.3 per cent, PetroVietnam Drilling & Well Services Corporation (PVD) gained 2.2 per cent and PetroVietnam Mud Drilling Corporation (PVC) inched up 1 per cent.
Last week, both local exchanges traded a daily average of 146 million shares and VND2.54 trillion ($112.8 million), slightly decreased in trading volume and an increase of 7.9 per cent in trading value. — VNS

|Good reception or no reception? All change for these stations...
Now your postcode will have an even greater bearing on whether or not you benefit from the UK's newest digital radio network and whether or not you can continue listening to old favourites. This week sees the arrival of the first stations on the new Sound Digital (SDL National) DAB multiplex.
Absolute 80s, one of the UK's most popular digital-only stations is one of the stations making the move to the new multiplex this week, leaving behind its previous home on the national Digital 1 network in the coming weeks.
For listeners, this means DAB coverage will drop from around 90% to around 75% of the UK. Notably in places such as East Anglia and the south-west, reception of the station will no longer be possible on DAB. The same applies to sister station Planet Rock, which also makes the same move this week. So if Absolute 80s now reads "Absolute 80s old" on your display and Planet Rock "zPlanet Rock", and you don't have another version in your station list after retuning, you're about to lose the stations.
But for other stations, the launch of Sound Digital means better coverage. Kisstory and Heat will go from being available on a handful of local DAB networks to being widely available across most major urban areas and beyond.
Niche stations including Panjab and Jazz FM will also become widely available on DAB. But listeners wanting to benefit from the full range of new stations will need a DAB+ compatible set, otherwise stations such as Jazz FM, Fun Kids and Magic Chilled will remain silent. Incidentally, for listeners in London, Jazz FM and Fun Kids can continue to be heard on their existing DAB slots, with no requirement to switch to DAB+.
Later in March, UTV Media will launch Virgin Radio, TalkSPORT2 and TalkRADIO on the multiplex. Premier Radio will launch offshoot station Premier Praise at Easter and will also broadcast until early April on both old and new multiplexes, to help listeners make the transition and to offer alternatives to listeners outside of the Sound Digital coverage area.
Sound Digital, a consortium between Arqiva, Bauer and UTV Media, will officially launch the new multiplex on Tuesday, when a mass advertising campaign to encourage listeners to retune will get underway.
But for listeners not in the 75% of the UK able to receive Sound Digital services, a switch to alternative platforms is required, such as the internet or mobile apps. While internet radio offers a viable alternative for listening to stations at home or at work, mobile reception is subject to the three Cs: coverage (3G/4G), congestion (in some areas on some networks, there are crunch points where speeds plummet and connectivity is poor) and cost - ask anyone who has just been kicked off 3's All-You-Can-Eat data plan.
The Sound Digital multiplex was intended to be a low-cost option for stations to broadcast on DAB. The existing Digital One multiplex had been filled to capacity, and charges for carriage had become prohibitively expensive for niche stations. Despite being cleared to broadcast to places such as East Anglia, only the top 45 transmitters in terms of coverage were chosen to distribute the new Sound Digital multiplex: maximum coverage with the least possible number of transmitters (and cost), leaving some areas high and dry without the extra stations: a commercial reality that's already been done on Freeview, where some viewers can't get the full set of channels for similar reasons. Even some mobile networks have until recently neglected to serve some areas with even 3G, although unlike TV and radio platforms, there's regulatory and commercial pressure to roll out better mobile reception into rural areas.
As a result, for DAB listeners this week will be like a roll of a dice in terms of reception: are you in a favoured postcode area or not? Will you be able to continue listening to Absolute 80s or not?
What listeners need to do
- With so many changes taking place on DAB digital radio week commencing 29/02/2016, listeners should retune their radios - it's the easiest way to find out which stations are now available in your area (or not) following the changes.
- If you're able to tune in to stations such as Absolute 80s and Share Radio in your station list, you're in the Sound Digital coverage area, and will benefit from the new network.
- Only DAB+ compatible radios will receive the full set of stations on the Sound Digital multiplex.

EHRs should link to data dashboards to improve clinical performance
Physicians are often too busy treating patients to identify those most in need of care, something customized data dashboards can change.
I recently had a chance to speak with several primary care physicians about their use of EHRs in the outpatient setting. They said they love that they can retrieve patient data so quickly. In the past, they would have to find the physical chart in a chart room and then thumb through pages of handwritten notes to find the information they were looking for. Now, they have the luxury of a search engine at their fingertips that can quickly look through patient chart information. They can also retrieve this information remotely from home or from a mobile device.
Then, I shifted gears and asked them about their clinical performance and the information that appears on their data dashboards. Did they know how many of their patients with hypertension are currently at a goal blood pressure? Or how many of their patients with diabetes have HbA1c levels that are within national clinical practice guideline standards? They didn't know, so we spent a few minutes manually answering these questions.
Most outpatient EHRs allow patient records to be retrieved based on specific parameters. Many EHRs also let the user mix and match Boolean operators such as "and", "or" and "not" when searching. For example, you can search for patients over the age of 18 who have a hypertension diagnosis and the EHR will respond that 5,000 patients meet those criteria.
Now, you can continue to filter your search by finding those who have a systolic blood pressure that is less than or equal to the goal level of 140. If that search result reveals that you only have 3,500 patients who meet those criteria, then your hypertension performance is effectively 3,500 out of 5,000, or 70%, of patients who meet the goal. That type of information should appear regularly on doctors' data dashboards, but it rarely happens in the private practice world because physicians are too busy keeping up with their clinical duties and trying to treat as many patients as possible.
Other ways to save time during care
How the right analytics team benefits care
Telemedicine: Saving physicians' time or taking their jobs?
Too much patient data can overload physicians
If a physician knew that 30% of his patients with hypertension are not at goal levels, it would not take much effort to go through the EHR and identify those patients. The work begins when a physician realizes that some of those patients have not had a checkup in the past year. Those patients need to be sent a reminder to return for blood pressure management. Sending those reminders likely isn't programmed into an EHR, so doing so will fall on your office manager.
Next, even if some of those patients in the 30% were seen recently, it's possible they aren't taking their prescribed medications. Pharmacy-dispensing data is not yet directly linked with most EHRs, so physicians don't have a way of knowing whether their patients filled their prescriptions. If a patient takes multiple medications, they may not know the names of their medications and could forget about a certain pill if they lose that prescription.
Even though the majority of physicians are now using EHRs, the process of caring for patients still heavily relies on a manual process of data collection, searching, filtering, and then expecting that someone will act on that information. Many physicians don't have time to ask self-reflective questions about their own clinical performance. This is why they need a dashboard that provides actionable information along with buttons that will trigger automated communication to patients who need to receive a clinical reminder message.

You don't get daisies just any old where. They seem to be very particular about where they grow. They prefer to grow on short, well mown grass – like a lawn for instance.
This raises interesting questions. When they were evolving we can presume that the grass was much shorter and natural selection gave them this preference for lawn like areas. Then as the pace of evolution picked up and the grass started to get longer they found their quality of life deteriorating. It was most likely at this point that they set up a working party to advise on all the possible options.
There is no doubt that the outcome of the committee's deliberations was that someone should invent a lawn mower. A few interglacial periods later and there it was – the very first lawn mower! The whole of daisy-dom rejoiced and it no doubt seemed that their troubles were over.
It was at this point that the fatal flaw in the plan became apparent.
Still daises are a persistent bunch and it only took an eon or so before the first hominids appeared.
Unfortunately we have no records to show exactly how long it was before this latest solutions to the daisy's problem learned to push the mower.
2012-05-06 at 17:15
to set your records straight I think it has been at least 40 years since the daisy problem solver learned to push a mower.
As I push the mower up and down the garden
The daisies seem to sway
Oh my god it's here again
Wish we could run away
But ruthlessly I keep going
Till every one has gone
I sit there on me seat and think
A job well done!

Landscape Architecture: (There's more to it than you might think)
When it comes to choosing the right landscape design for your property it is important to take a number of factors into consideration. For example, the particular climate and growing conditions of your area should certainly be something that you will want to keep in mind when choosing your landscaping elements. Some plants, grasses, trees and flowers will be native to the area; these are often the easiest to grow and most resistant to local pests and growing conditions.
Fortunately, it is also possible to introduce non-native species to an area, especially when the right conditions are included as part of your landscape architecture. An example of this would be when a homeowner installs a lush water garden and creates an environment where plants that would not normally grow in Knoxville can now thrive. When considering this type of landscape design it is generally best to consult with an expert. A Knoxville landscaping company can help you choose the landscape elements you like while providing expert guidance on the best plants and shrubs for your area or growing conditions.
It is also important to realize that your landscape architecture can be an artistic expression of your personal style. There are many exceptional landscaping elements that can help you create a truly remarkable and beautiful outdoor space. For example, raised flower beds, geometric shapes and even a water fountain or babbling brook can all add a great deal of interest and style to your landscape project. Additionally, stone has always been a very popular material to use for various landscaping projects. It is especially effective when used for elements such as a walkway, fire pit, deck or even a relaxing patio area. The use of pavers, gravel and other stone products can help create visual interest in your design and balance out other aspects of your landscaping. In fact, you can create asymmetrical paths lined with foliage or even strategically placed fieldstones for a whimsical backyard garden.
Depending on the space you have available, you can include separate areas to help set off special features. Whether you want to include a fire pit surrounded by bold landscaping or a meandering path through lush meadow grasses, your landscaping company should be able to help you achieve the look you want while still making use of easy to maintain plants that are native to the area. After all, creating the right growing environment is an important factor in any type of landscape design. You certainly do not want to spend all of your time maintaining your garden area, this should be a special place where you can relax and enjoy the beauty.
When choosing your landscape design it is important to keep some fundamental design elements in mind. Outdoor landscaping should include things like unity, balance, color, sequence, line, texture, scale, form and variety. A professional landscape design company is definitely an important factor in ensuring your finished project is as beautiful and enjoyable as possible. For residents in Knoxville, this means choosing a company with a reputation of providing exceptional landscaping services, such as Moore's Landscaping.

Ashley says…
My husband and I were in Huntington on a non-home game Saturday afternoon recently looking for somewhere "different" to eat. We don't make it to downtown Huntington very often, so finding somewhere "different" shouldn't be too difficult, right? We struggled a little. We didn't want to go to one of the chains (Uno's, Max & Irma's or Five Guys' Burgers and Fries) at Pullman Square and we weren't in the mood for Asian, Italian or Mexican food (Thai House, Frankie B's, also at Pullman Square, or Chili Willi's.) It was between lunch and dinner hours and a couple of other places (Huntington Prime and another I can't recall the name of) weren't open yet. So we decided on the Marshall Hall of Fame Café. We'd eaten there a couple of times before, but it had been a few years.
We were asked by the hostess if we wanted to sit in the dining room, the bar or on the patio. It was a little too cool for the shaded patio, and we were in the mood for some football, so we chose the bar area. Cabell County enforces a smoking ban, so we knew we wouldn't have to worry about cigarette smoke in the bar. The entire restaurant, as you might guess, displays tons of Marshall memorabilia all over the place. Even if you aren't a Marshall fan, it's still kind of neat to look at it all. The bar area is very spacious with a long bar with lots of stools, high top tables and booths. They have about 10 televisions on the back wall of the bar each showing a different game and they even bring around to all the tables a listing of each game they are showing and its broadcast time. Each booth also has its own smaller tv, and control is in the hands of the customer. Several other tv's are placed throughout the place too.
My husband and I both ordered 20 oz. Blue Moon drafts for $5.25 each. They arrived quickly and were nice and frosty and definitely hit the spot. I sometimes forget how good Blue Moon is and forget to order it. I need to remember next time a place has it on draft. After our server brought our beers, we still hadn't decided what to order. We asked for a few more minutes, which is usually a mistake for us because that normally means our server won't be back for another 15-20 minutes. (Why is that? We may not be ready to order within five minutes of sitting down so we need just a couple more minutes, not a day and a half.) We got lucky this time. Our server actually came back to us after about five minutes.
I had already decided that this meal would be a splurge/cheat meal. I wanted grease and carbs and lots of 'em. I had a tough time deciding between the hand-battered fish sandwich, the appetizer sampler platter and four or five of the mouth-watering burgers on the menu. I decided on the Bourbon BBQ bacon burger ($6.99), mainly because I have a hard time resisting anything with bacon on it, all the while questioning whether or not it's what I really wanted. My husband ordered the chili burger and fries ($7.49). I opted for the onion rings for an upcharge of $1.95, which is ridiculous since you don't get as many rings as you do fries. Besides, are the rings really that much more expensive? I doubt it. Oh well, I wanted the rings and I only eat like this once in a while, so I didn't mind.
I had talked myself into not regretting my order and when the burgers arrived, I was glad I decided on this particular burger. The BBQ sauce was a sweet sauce made with bourbon and there was plenty of it on the burger. It also had a slice of cheddar cheese and two very large slices of thick bacon. The burger, according to the menu, was angus beef, and I asked for it to be cooked to medium doneness. I used to get weirded out if my burgers were a little pink on the inside, which is strange because I like my steaks cooked medium rare. But I've quit letting that bother me and have rather enjoyed the juiciness and flavorfulness of a burger not cooked to resemble a hockey puck. My burger was excellent. The sauce, cheese and bacon were great additions, but the star of this show was the meat. It was seasoned and cooked perfectly and the quality of it was evident. The onion rings were worth the upcharge. They were crispy, huge and delicious, and I actually got quite a few of them.
My husband's chili burger looked like the chili pot had exploded onto his plate. The menu states this burger isn't "for the weak and weary!" It was intimidating. It was served open-faced with a ton of chili, shredded cheddar cheese, jalapenos and lime-flavored sour cream over it. It was definitely a knife, fork and spoon kind of burger. I tasted the chili and it was very flavorful and had a little kick to it. We both agreed that it needed more sour cream. The fries were the frozen kind, but were cooked crisp and were pretty good. We both loved our burgers.
The menu at Marshall Hall of Fame Cafe has a lot of good choices, maybe too many for someone like me who when starving can;t make up her mind. I'd like to try a few of the other burgers or sandwiches or the sampler platter or one or two of the rib combos or the crab cakes or the house made desserts or ….
I realize that the Marshall Hall of Fame Café is a chain of sorts. They have locations in three or four other college towns, aptly named for those schools, of course. But a lot of the food is fresh made and that makes a big difference to me. I give it FOUR FORKS because I had one of the best burgers I've ever had, second only to the Black River burger at the Black River Grill in Myrtle Beach (which we devastatingly discovered last month-GASP!- has closed down. )Marshall Hall of Fame Cafe 857 3rd Avenue Huntington, West Virginia 25701 304-697-9800

I'm not expecting much income at all, but its a great experience to have and there should be some interesting comments as this will achieve world-wide distribution.
Work it.

In 2009, Cartoon Network Latin America (CNLA), a leading children's entertainment network reaching 60 million households in the region, decided to put more energy into its corporate social responsibility program, which had been small, ad hoc and charity-oriented in nature. They approached Rain Barrel, knowing our long experience with children's rights and Latin America, to help develop a comprehensive corporate social responsibility (CSR) campaign.
Our challenge was to find ways to help CNLA – a Turner Broadcasting and Time Warner subsidiary -- become a better corporate citizen while ensuring that its DNA as a fun-filled, edgy entertainment channel for kids remained intact.
Working over several years with CNLA's management, creative and marketing teams, we have helped the broadcaster develop a robust and multi-faceted pro-social program, called The Cartoon Movement. Together, we articulated a clear mission: promoting children's rights to play, to healthy lifestyles, safe and inclusive sports, media creativity, a healthy environment and freedom from violence, particularly bullying.
Never sacrificing their commitment to providing escapist entertainment for kids to enjoy, the team developed public service announcements and campaigns drawing on beloved Cartoon Network characters that encourage kids to become more active in their schools and communities, and have fun doing it.
The most exciting and impactful campaign to date has been Basta de bullying, no te quedes callado in Spanish and Chega de bullying, naô fique calado in Portuguese (Stop Bullying, Speak up! in English).
Introduced in 2012, the campaign continues to raise awareness that bullying is widespread, unacceptable and hurts everyone involved.
The Basta campaign combines media campaigns with on-the-ground training and assemblies in schools and communities, with NGOs Plan International and World Vision as partners. In several countries, ministries of education and the Ibero-American Organization for Education, Science and Culture have embraced the initiative.
CNLA has provided tens of millions of dollars in production and airtime to promote awareness of its pledge against bullying and a toolkit for kids, parents and educators that provide concrete tips for how to counter bullying and cyberbullying.
Rain Barrel is proud to have been instrumental in developing these campaigns and partnerships that enable Cartoon Network to give back to its audiences in concrete and meaningful ways. It is an enduring and gratifying collaboration that has won the network several awards for its pro-social initiatives.

Benítez does not yet know when he will sit down with Broughton, the chairman of British Airways appointed to the same position at the Premier League club last month, for a meeting that will most likely prove decisive in whether the Spaniard feels he can continue at Anfield, but hopes it is "sooner rather than later."
The Liverpool manager said: "I would like to meet with the chairman sooner rather than later to know his idea about the future. Still we are working hard and planning for the future. We have already signed [Jonjo] Shelvey from Charlton, trying to do the best for the club.
"Liverpool is a massive name in England and, again, in Europe. Everybody knows about the history of the club and the fans, so we can still attract players to improve the squad."
Benítez's meeting with Broughton, though, will go a long way to defining who is in charge of that recruitment drive and establishing to what extent the club have the money to fund it.
Juventus remain confident of appointing Benítez as their next manager after preparing a four-year deal worth around £3.5 million a season to attract the Spaniard. The Serie A side, who will compete with Liverpool in next season's Europa League, have set aside £60 million a season for the next three years in a bid to tempt Benítez to Italy. Contrary to reports in Italy, they have not set the Liverpool manager a deadline to accept their proposal.
That offer will become significantly more appealing to Benítez should Broughton, appointed to oversee the sale of the club and end the ownership of Tom Hicks and George Gillett, fail to assuage the Spaniard's concerns over Liverpool's future.
Benítez has made clear there are "many" questions he hopes Broughton can answer, not least those surrounding how quickly the club is likely to find the penury forced upon them by Hicks and Gillett coming at an end and precisely who is in control of a club £237 million in debt to the Royal Bank of Scotland.
It would also be understandable should Benítez enquire of Broughton whether, should several of Liverpool's most valuable assets – including Steven Gerrard, Fernando Torres and Javier Mascherano – choose to leave this summer, he would be granted the funds to reinvest in his squad.
Torres has made no secret of his affection for Liverpool, but he has increasingly expressed concerns over the club's direction and it is believed he is prepared to consider a move away, with Manchester City and Chelsea both confirmed long-term admirers.
Barcelona, another possible destination, are understood to have struck a verbal agreement for his Spain team-mate David Villa, indicating their priorities lie elsewhere, though they may yet return this summer with a firm bid for Mascherano.
Internazionale, though, would rival both Premier League sides for his and Steven Gerrard's signatures after officials from the Italian side confirmed on Sunday they would be interested in both players. There were reports in Italy on Sunday night that Torres had been seen in Inter's Barcelona hotel prior to their Champions League semi-final.
After last summer's chaos, though, when money Benítez believed was set aside for transfers was instead swallowed by extending the contracts of Gerrard, Torres, Daniel Agger, Dirk Kuyt and the manager himself, Benítez is believed to want an indication that whatever funds are raised this summer, there will be no repeat. Should Broughton be unable to assuage Benítez's fears, the Spaniard is thought to be resigned to the prospect of ending his reign at a club he does not wish to leave.
Liverpool's finances preclude the possibility of dismissing him, though it is believed the club would not stand in his way should he choose to leave, while sources at Anfield have not ruled out the possibility of appointing a short-term caretaker to take the club through the summer.
The club's players know, meanwhile, they have little choice but to wait and see what happens to their manager and themselves.
"It is difficult to speak about next season," said the midfielder Yossi Benayoun. "We do not know what changes there will be with players or staff. I do not know whether I will be here or not.
"A club like Liverpool must do everything they can to keep players like Stevie and Fernando but a lot of things can change. In a few weeks we will know better."
Managers in the frame?
Roy Hodgson
The Fulham manager's excellent campaign has made him a favourite. English, able to work on a budget and tactically aware enough to succeed in Europe, though his woeful away record counts against him. Odds: 12-1
Martin O'Neill
Linked with the vacancy which Benítez eventually filled, the Aston Villa manager is expected to depart at the end of the season. 5-1
Jose Mourinho
The dream candidate for some, the nightmare for others. Still unpopular on Merseyside from his time at Chelsea, but a proven winner. Tends not to join financially-troubled clubs. 5-2
Fabio Capello
The England manager is committed to the national team until 2012, but a successful World Cup may be enough to tempt him to have one last crack at a club job. 25-1
Kenny Dalglish
A forerunner should Liverpool appoint an initial caretaker and the romantic choice to steady the ship. 9-4

By Chris Hurt
The pork market had a great performance in 2017, and prospects for 2018 look positive, as well. What do I mean by a "great performance"? For 2017, pork production will increase about 3.5%, and prices are likely to be sharply higher — by about 12%. More production and higher prices seems to defy economic logic. But what is evident is that pork demand is really strong this year.
Strong demand means consumers are still buying more pork even with higher hog prices. So what's going on? There seems to be at least three components.
First, the U.S. economy is doing well. More people have jobs, wages are increasing, and household wealth is rising partially due to high stock market prices. Second, consumers love the taste of bacon, and it's finding its way into an increasing number of sandwiches and other food products. Finally, our foreign customers like U.S. pork. They're being stimulated to buy more from us due to improving world incomes and the falling value of the U.S. dollar.
Since the start of the year, the dollar index has fallen nearly 9%. A cheaper dollar means foreign currencies are stronger, and those currencies buy more in the U.S.
Price comparisons
In 2016, lean hog prices averaged about $60 per hundred pounds. In 2017, that average is expected to be around $67. Big quarterly jumps occurred in the third quarter of 2017, and are expected in the fourth quarter, as well.
In the third quarter of 2017, prices were about $11 higher than the same quarter a year earlier. A bigger increase is expected in the final quarter of 2017, up $13 from the year before.
Favorable crop yields are sending signals of abundant feed supplies and a continuation of moderate feed prices into 2018. That will help keep expansion going, with pork production growing by around 3% again in 2018. But next year we can't count on further growth in demand. You can expect prices to drop $2 to $3 from 2017 levels.
Bottom line figures
Total costs of production are expected to be in the mid-$60s for the rest of 2017 and into 2018. At this point, 2018 looks like a year when farrow-to-finish producers who have average costs can cover all of their production costs, including family labor and full depreciation on buildings and equipment.
Once feed prices finally dropped starting with the 2014 crops, the pork industry has experienced a dynamic period of growth. By the end of 2018, the industry will have expanded production by 17% from 2014 levels.
That growth is about 4% per year, on average, over the four years. While that isn't computer industry growth rates, it's impressive for agriculture, which tends to grow at 1% to 2% per year. As I said, the pork market has had a "great performance."

I refer the minister to a recent ABC 4 Corners' report, which says: (and I quote)
- "But there are hidden dangers in doing business with China: endemic corruption; a lack of transparency in both business and the legal system, and questions about where the money is coming from and whether ill-gotten gains are being laundered. China (is) by far the biggest exporter of illicit capital."
- "With billions of dollars flowing out of China, international money laundering experts are warning that some of it is making its way into Australia"
1) Can the minister give this Senate a guarantee that the Chinese money funding his parties' election campaigns – was not laundered ill-gotten gains?
2) Can the minister guarantee donations from China are not corrupt?
I refer the Minister to Australian Electoral commission figures, which show that since 2007 the National, Liberal and Labor Parties have accepted at least $4.8 million in political donations from three businessmen who are closely linked to the Chinese Communist government.
Can the Minister detail the steps his government has taken to guarantee that those funds are not from corrupt activities?
3) Has China's suspect political donations influenced ChaFTA?
Can the minister give a guarantee that millions of dollars of suspect political donations linked to the Chinese government - haven't influenced the creation of a dodgy Free Trade Deal which:
- Undermines Australia's sovereignty;
- Threatens Australian workers' Job security; and
- Dramatically decreases scrutiny on investment from a country that is a bully, thief, liar and a serious security threat to Australia.
Take Note of Answer on Free Trade Agreement
Mr President,
I move:
That the Senate take note of the answer given by Senator Brandis - to questions without notice asked by Senator Lambie today - relating to Chinese government donations to Australian Political Parties and Australia's Free Trade Deal with China.
Mr President,
The report from Australia's leading a Current Affairs Program - Four Corners – last night, vindicated the warnings I've made about the dangers of money from China that is not properly scrutinised.
The answers today and other comments from Liberal Government representatives - in response to my questions showed that there is no political will from the Turnbull Liberal Government to fix the problem of corrupt Chinese government funds, purchasing Australian property or Australian political party favors.
There's only a will, to cover up the truth with predictable personal abuse and racist smears.
And I call for all Australian political parties to ban donations from money linked to China's communist government.
Mr President,
Only an independent Senator would have asked questions demanding answers about corrupt political payments coming from China because the majority of Australia's main political parties (Liberals, Nationals and Labor parties) are receiving millions of dollars linked to the Chinese State or their associates.
Mr President,
Our leading Radio Current affairs program – AM on Radio National recently reported that: (and I quote)
- The flood of Chinese money into Australia's hot real estate market has prompted calls for new rules that would force solicitors and real estate agents to report suspicious financial transactions.
- A Four Corners investigation has found no Australian agency is charged with identifying the true source of foreign funds streaming in from China.
- Insiders say unless Australia asks more questions, or enforces better standards, it could inadvertently become a safe haven for corrupt funds.
It is stunning that one of our most important National watchdogs - The Foreign Investment Review Board, deems the issue of dirty money to be outside its scope of responsibility!
I'll quote again from the Radio National report:
- Two former board members have confirmed concerns about offshore corruption are rarely discussed, even though $US1.25 trillion worth of corrupt and criminal proceeds from China is estimated to have been spent around the world in the decade to 2012.
- No federal authority checks the source of Chinese investment unless there are obvious concerns about drug trafficking or other serious crimes.
- But Raymond Baker from Washington DC's Global Financial Integrity says ignorance could cost Australia.
Mr Baker is being kind when he describes the fact that no Australian agency is charged with identifying the true source of foreign funds streaming in from China – as ignorance.
Its not ignorance!
It deliberate – its seditious – its criminal – because no one could be so stupid to stand by and allow the sell off of Australia and the undermining of our National security and sovereignty to Chinese Communist Crooks!
Unfortunately for Australia's future generations - our food, water, energy, national and workers securities – are being compromised by the dirty deals the Liberal, National and Labor party members of this parliament are prepared to do with those who owe their wealth to the small group of elite people that rule the Chinese people.
The answers given by the minister representing the PM – Senator Brandis only confirmed the very serious threat that the China Free Trade Deal poses to Australia's:
- National sovereignty
- Workers' Job security and
- Proper scrutiny of investment from a country, which everyone knows - is an international bully, thief and liar.
- Flexing its military muscles in the international waters of the South East China Sea – bullying international shipping – the Americans are even risking an armed confrontation with China as I speak by sailing through contested international waters.
- Stealing every piece of data and intellectual property not nailed down in Cyberspace.
So clearly the Chinese government is an international bully, thief and liar – who is a serious security threat to Australia and our allies.
These latest media reports, combined with the evasive, predictable condescending replies to my questions, show the Chinese Government and its ruling Communist elite have been caught out using their unlimited financial might, to infiltrate Australian by stealth and attack our National security and sovereignty So they can further their national interest and gradually impose their corrupt, totalitarian culture on us.
Or as one digger from the Korean War Veteran said – what the Chinese failed to do by the bullet and bomb in the 1950s, they're now doing with their cheque books and political donations in 2015.

The digestive system is a critical part of your body. It often gets flack for being the thing that creates stools, but like it or not, they do serve a purpose. Just like any part of your body, the digestive system need proper care or else health problems can arise. Thankfully, there are some easy steps that can be taken to reduce your risk and improve your overall health. Below are five quick tips for better digestion.
Stay Hydrated:
There is nothing in the world better for your overall health, including digestive health, than drinking a tall, cool glass of water. After all, water is the key to life. So drink up! Dehydration can slow digestion and lead to harder stools that are more difficult to pass. A lack of water is also harsh on your kidneys, which need lots of water in order to filter out wastes into urine. You can tell if you are well hydrated if your pee is clear, with little to no yellow coloring.
Up your Fiber Intake:
Fiber helps make everything move efficiently through your digestive tract. It keeps food from rushing through, which in term keeps your blood sugar levels even. At the same time, fiber prevents blockage, which makes passing stools easier and reduces bloating. While some may associate high fiber foods with nasty prune juice or tasteless brand flakes, there are many delicious ways to get that fiber. Whole fruits and vegetables are naturally high in fiber, as are whole grains and whole wheat. Body cleanse formula products can also work as a fiber supplement, which can be easily added to meals or drinks.
Slow Down!
Your food is not going anywhere, so take it easy. The digestive system does not like to be rushed, so chew your food thoroughly. This will give your stomach the time it needs to prepare for proper digestion. It also allows for better communication between the brain and stomach, which need to be in tune in order to tell when you are full.
Get some Probiotics:
These are living microorganisms that are similar to those found in your intestines. They are good and live in symbiosis with your guts. They normalize bowel movements, reduce gas build up, and help food pass without difficulty. You can get probiotics by taking supplements, such as those found at naturessunshine.com, or by eating foods that naturally contain them, such as yogurt.
Limit your intake of sodium, starches, and artificial sweeteners:
These are common triggers for bloating. Even if you eat small meals, if the food is high in one or more of these ingredients, bloating can occur anyways.

KARACHI: Federal Interior Minister Rehman Malik, abiding by his promise, revealed the investigation report of the murder of former prime minister Benazir Bhutto in the Sindh Assembly on Tuesday, and vowed to bring then president Pervaiz Musharraf back to the country.
The minister said that Musharraf has been declared a proclaimed offender in the case on the grounds that the VVIP security status entitled to Benazir Bhutto was deliberately denied. "We will issue a red notice and involve Interpol to bring back Musharraf to the country."
"The then CPO Abdul Aziz is also being held responsible for the deliberate destruction of evidences," he added.
The minister revealed that the same Taliban group which has been held responsible in the investigation report is also responsible for carrying out several other attacks on Benazir Bhutto in the past. "Wherever Mohtarma went for her rallies, the suspects left their remnants at those places where they tried to kill her. There was an element of the TTP [Tehreek-i-Taliban] everywhere. The main accused in the case not only planned but also conspired and executed the whole plan."
He also revealed that terrorist Saeed Bilal, with the help of Qari Ismail, carried out the suicide bomb on Benazir's rally on October 18. "Before leaving for the attack, Saeed changed his clothes to merge into the gathering. The DNA samples retrieved from his body parts after the attack matched with the DNA samples collected from the clothes at his house."
He pointed out that the investigations took a long time to complete as it usually takes time to collect circumstantial proof. "It is not just important to find out the implementers, but also see who planned the whole attack."
The minister added that the case is in trial and 13 witness prosecutions had been done in the case.
Commending Benazir Bhutto's courage, he said that many fake cases were initiated against the former prime minister but still she opted for reconciliation with the then president and decided to come to the country.
"In the presence of Mark Siegel, Musharraf threatened her: If you come to Pakistan before the elections, you will be responsible for the consequences. If you come to Pakistan before the elections, I will not be responsible for our security.
But she said: General, the decision to come to Pakistan is mine, not yours," Malik said.
Chief Investigator of Benazir Bhutto murder case Khalid Qureshi revealed to the Sindh Assembly that Taliban leader Baitullah Mehsud was responsible for the planning and execution of the attack on Benazir Bhutto.
He said that the people recruited to carry out the task were all trained in the Haqqania madrassa in South Waziristan.
"On December 20, in room no. 11 of Haqqania madrassa, Baitullah Maisood gave money to carry out the task."
All the suspects of the attack were traced after the main accused Hasnain Gul one day mistakenly called his landline number in Rawalpindi. "All terrorists have strict instructions of not calling any landline number," Qureshi said.
Musharraf dismisses warrant threat as 'blame game'
Former President Pervez Mushrraf, speaking to Express News on Tuesday said that he had passed on the intelligence reports of threats to Benazir Bhutto's life.
He said that the former Pakistan Peoples Party stalwart had been warned that suicide bombers had reached the venue. "I had personally called Benazir Bhutto and told her that there exists a threat against her life," the retired general said.
Calling it a blame game, Musharraf pointed out that those who were sitting inside the vehicle when assailants opened fire before blowing themselves up, remained safe. Bhutto had stood up through the sun roof of her armoured car to wave to gathered loyalists as her convoy exited the Benazir Bhutto Park (then Liaquat Ali Khan Park).
"She unfortunately was martyred, but those sitting inside the car are perfectly fine. If she had been sitting inside the car, she too would have been safe," Musharraf said.
He said that accusations against him of not providing security were 'illogical', and that since he was not in Pakistan, the government found him an easy target to deflect the blame away from them.
Musharraf recalled that the security for the rally in Rawalpindi had been taken over by PPP loyalists. Even the policemen on duty were PPP loyalists, he exclaimed.
Maulan Sami ul Haq denies allegations against Haqqania
Meanwhile Maulana Sami ul Haq, chief cleric of Darul Uloom Haqqania Akora Khatak has denied Malik's allegations against the seminary.
Talking to The Express Tribune, he said that not a single student from his seminary was involved in terrorist activities, "Several times I have asked the government and security officials that instead of levelling allegations against my madrassa students, take concrete step to prove them guilty. I offer my cooperation in this regard even now."
The cleric also denied security officials' claims that students of Haqqania were involved in targeting security installations, adding that his seminary followed a balanced and 'peaceful' curriculum, which was open to inspection by the authorities.
Haq demanded for an open trial of Benazir Bhutto's murder.

My desire to pursue Natural Resource Conservation and Management may have stemmed from my youth. With my obsession of being outside, playing in the creek and fishing, but also seeing how so many people came to our area and bashed us "back-wood hillbillies" and said we were "tearing up the landscape." Given, some things that were going on were contributing to detrimental water quality and increased run-off. Its my belief that God created this world for us to utilize, but that comes with a great responsibility. A responsibility that has been perverted by both sides of the aisle. Conservation of our Natural Resources is not a political issue, it is a human issue. And as hunters and anglers, it is part of our history and heritage.
The sportsmen we follow were doers. They were movers, shakers, unapologetic in your face people. They ASKED for an increase in taxes for wildlife. They formed a club in order to have a way of showing people what species looked like because they thought those species would be extinct and we wouldn't have any record of what they looked like. They also asked to protect and preserve the Redwoods because they knew that area was not receptive of certain timber and forestry practices. From those men and women, we now have some of the most amazing conservation organizations and tons of success stories. Those are the conservationists I want to be like. Not one that can be pushed by political lines. Not one who chooses to be a spectator.
"A conservationist is one who is humbly aware that with each stroke [of the axe] he is writing his signature on the face of the land."
"There are two spiritual dangers in not owning a farm. One is the danger of supposing that breakfast comes from the grocery, and the other that heat comes from the furnace."
Aldo Leopold wrote both of these in probably one of the most iconic books for conservation and wildlife, A Sand County Almanac. Mr. Leopold recognizes that we got to role up our sleeves to survive, but also that WE are the ones that steer what happens in the natural world. Its not a light, or easy task/charge. But it is what we must do for the prolonging of our species, as well as others.

Today is a landmark day for Camara Northern Ireland as the hub celebrates its first shipment to Africa. 450 computers will be loaded inside a shipping container before making the long journey to Zambia.
Over its lifetime, one computer can impact 21 children, so with this particular shipment, 9,450 children are expected to receive the gift of digital literacy. Speaking on the latest Camara milestone, Operations Manager for the Belfast hub, Damien Madden said "This container has been our biggest challenge yet. 450 computers leaving in one day means we have been very tight for space and it really has required everyone's total commitment and effort to get the container out on time."
The Belfast hub hopes to build further upon this success as CEO, Jonny Lamberton explains, "The team have worked really hard to get this container ready. It's great to see it heading off to Zambia to help educate disadvantaged children. At our Belfast processing hub that is what we are about. Our next task is already at hand – sourcing 450 more computers for our next shipment in April."
Up to 500,000 computers are discarded in Ireland every year, half of which could be reused in education. Lamberton says "By donating your old equipment for reuse rather than recycling, Camara is promoting not only social and educational value, but also ensuring maximum environmental benefit."

Beautiful Brides Philly did an AMAZING job with hair and makeup on my wedding day. I did a lot of research on Philadelphia-area wedding hair and makeup prior to booking Beautiful Brides Philly and would highly recommend them to anyone! I also had a lot of diversity among my group in terms of skin tone, hair color, etc. and they were able to really make everyone look their best. Would use them again without hesitation!

September 29, The sandbar emerges
Most of you surf fishermen know we have a sandbar off the beach just north of the shop. During this big tide we've got this week, the low tide is just as shallow as the high tide is deep. So the sandbar has been easy to walk to at low tide. And it's been producing good numbers so far. You can get out to the sandbar about 2 hours before to two hours after dead low tide (for instance that's 5-9 am tomorrow, and 5:30- 9:30 pm tomorrow night). Well Kay tells me the guys have been getting both bass and blues off that sandbar this week. So throw on your waders and get out there.
Other reports have fish going up the river during low tide, and being caught just outside Joppa Flats and the Icebreaker until the tide reaches High. Then when it starts to go out, the fish seem to follow it. So you boaters can give it a shot. Also, at daybreak yours truly grabbed a couple of big bluefish trolling swimmers off high sandy. After the sun came up the bite disappeared though, so get out early.
Finally, we've got some good reports of small bluefin tuna busting in good numbers on Whaleback and at the 180′ line. Even some big ones spotted here and there near speckled apron. Tis' the tuna season after all.

Too bad this weekend is yet another washout.
October 2, 2011 at 7:54 pm
Friday featured lots of widely dispersed tern action from the southern end of the reservation and south; the birds were going after tons and tons of bait, either sand eels or minnows. Interspersed was very sporadic, very brief blitzing schoolies. All of that bait with so little blitzing at this time of year is a little hard to figure, and frustrating!

It's actually not that difficult to figure out, the big breeders have been being pulled from the stocks for years, and now there are not enough left to sustain a healthy population of bass.

Just for your information. Remember the round plastic disks released from the water treatment plant in N.H. that were found in the Merrimack. I found two in the Narrow River in Narraganset R.I.last week.

I think your absolutely right Jeremy, we were on an uptick in terms of striper poplulation but its clearly crashing now. More reason to C & R.

MIAMI — As soon as Kevin Durant dunked the ball to tie the game 102-102 with 11.7 seconds remaining, the Heat had to focus their attention on the impending offensive possession.
With no timeouts left, Miami didn't have time to regroup. If the Heat wanted to avoid overtime, they would have to make something happen on the fly.
So Okaro White inbounded the ball to Dion Waiters. And the ball never left Waiters' hands until he hit the game-winning 3-pointer with 0.6 seconds remaining to lead the Heat (15-30) to a shocking 105-102 win over the Warriors (38-7) at AmericanAirlines Arena on Monday night.
The big shot was the perfect ending to a very productive two-game stretch for Waiters, as he's averaged 33 points on 64.1 percent shooting over Miami's past two wins.
"The calm," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said of what stood out to him most about Waiters' game-winning shot. "I got to talk to him. Was that just incredible calm or not necessarily knowing exactly what the situation was? But he's not scared. He's not afraid. He's fearless. He wants those moments as much as anybody. He's been pestering me about those kind of deals in the fourth quarter about having an opportunity to make plays."
Waiters got that opportunity. After taking the inbound pass with no timeouts and 11.7 seconds remaining, Waiters knew the shot was his to take.
"We didn't have a timeout," Spoelstra said. "We didn't have an opportunity to talk about it, but it was one of those situations that everybody knew it was going to get into Dion's hands and he would make a play and we would live with it."
It took Waiters 4.7 seconds to cross half-court. The Heat's lineup of Wayne Ellington, James Johnson, Goran Dragic and White stood around the 3-point line to leave the middle of the floor open in case Waiters wanted to drive to the basket for the game-winner.
"Hell yeah," Waiters said when asked if he wanted the ball in this situation. "Yeah, I did. It was a perfect opportunity for us. We didn't have any timeouts, so it seemed like it was pretty much set up for us to go take it."
And Waiters took it.
After crossing half-court, the 25-year-old floated to his right with Klay Thompson defending him. But Waiters never actually wanted to go right, as he prefers to shoot jumpers off the dribble going to his left.
"I really thought he was going to continue to play me to my right and not try to let me get back left, you know I like to go left," Waiters said. "So once I see him let me cross back and get back to my left, I just knew. It felt good once I picked it up."
Waiters used the crossover to get back to his left hand and to create space from Thompson. That's all he needed.
"It wasn't good defense," Thompson said. "I got to press up on him, make him go around me. I made a big mistake. It cost us."
With 3.3 seconds left on the clock and the crossover working to create about three feet of space from Thompson, putting up the shot was the next step.
"I was just thinking, I lie to you not, these were the moments that I practiced when I was kid," Waiters said. "You know, you get out there by yourself, counting down '3, 2, 1.' That was the opportunity for me just to seize the moment. I don't shy away from those type of shots."
Waiters let the ball go for the 25-foot jump shot with about two seconds remaining.
"Dion read that beautifully," Spoelstra said. "He was not going to give that up to anybody else."
All that was left to do was watch the ball go in the basket. Waiters' high arching shot found the net with 0.6 seconds remaining for what ended up being the game-winner.
"To leave it with only 0.6 seconds, you have to do that with this basketball team," Spoelstra said. "You leave more time on the clock with those guys, you never know what's going to happen. So he took it into his own hands and we didn't have a timeout. And it was the right play, just to get a comfort shot off with as little time as possible and he was able to do that."
As the sellout crowd of 19,600 at AmericanAirlines Arena roared, Waiters celebrated by crossing his arms and nodding his head in approval of the moment, as teammates rushed to congratulate him.
"I love it," Waiters said of the crowd. "Especially after I was in a great atmosphere last year in [Oklahoma City]. Miami has got that energy. The fans, they're here every game, supporting us, and they give us that extra boost, man, that we need. And I appreciate them coming out every night, if it's going our way or not. I just try to get them involved and keep them involved, especially on an exciting night like this."
But Waiters didn't let the moment end without something for Durant, a former Oklahoma City teammate and close friend. Waiters winked at Durant after the game-winner.
"He gave me a little wink," Durant said. "It sucks seeing it go through the rim. But I guess the big brother in me can smile about it after the game. He played great."
Here's the game-winning sequence in its entirety …

Whitbread Information Systems Rebrand
Project scope
Whitbread PLC's Informations Systems Department are planning some big changes in the way they operate. As such, they wanted to change the perceptions within their own department and throughout the wider business.
Our brief was to create a bespoke large piece of print which communicated the WIS team's vision for their department's future, in an eye-catching and attractive way. This design work needed to be undertaken with an awareness that this design could be adapted in for future use - for both print and screen.
The WIS Team wanted to emphasise the journey their department were undertaking over the next 5 years. Working with our clients Roebuck Productions and the WIS team, we brainstormed a number of different ideas to visually communicate this. We agreed a mountaineering theme had the best potential to express the ideas of progress and teamwork in an interesting way.
The brightfive design team oversaw the design and print of a bespoke format wall foamex, now proudly on display at the Whitbread IS offices, as well as pull ups and pens in this design.
