Every speech-language pathologist who travels the halls of a long-term care facility has faced this problem. You receive a referral to check for dysphagia in a resident who is losing weight. You pull the chart and complete your initial assessment, only to find it's not dysphagia at all. It's late-stage dementia.
In many of our clients battling later-stage dementia, characteristic behaviors—such as lack of focus and wandering—converge to form the perfect storm of unintentional weight loss even before true dysphagia is present. We've all seen it. The client can't focus long enough to stay seated at the table during meals. The client wanders incessantly despite redirection. As SLPs, we know numerous effective strategies to maximize the dining experience for someone with dementia—altering the color of dishware, decreasing distractions, dietary modifications, training other staff on functional communication and feeding strategies—but what do we do if we try all of these compensatory strategies and behaviors persist? My thought—if you can't beat them, join them! Hence, what I call the "Grazers Program."
Much as the name implies, the Grazers Program challenges caregivers to meet residents where they are—literally—with nutritional opportunities, versus trying to make them conform with traditional meal routines. So let's break this down further. Many people with dementia wander. Wandering behavior interferes with normal dining experiences, while also increasing calories burned. This leads to unintentional weight loss, which has been linked to increased illness and even mortality in people with dementia. Resistance to eating also frustrates caregivers, who can't get them to sit still long enough to eat.
My question is, "Why do they have to sit still to eat?" I hope to answer this question with the Grazers Program, based on a simple premise: "They don't."
Think about it. If the swallowing mechanism works, we can still eat food and consume the necessary calories to maintain weight, even while walking. Marathon runners eat during a race and we've all grabbed lunch on the go. Could caregivers help our ambulatory clients with later-stage dementia do the same? The answer is yes. How do I know? I did it.
An SLP and OT use a technique for self-soothing and self-regulation to help people with cognitive impairments focus on—and enjoy—eating.
"Play It Again, Sam": How the Use of Music is Reawakening the Minds of Many Individuals Battling Dementia.
A woman with dementia suddenly stops eating, and her SLP daughter questions the diagnosis of dementia-related dysphagia.
How do we honor patients' decisions about their swallowing treatment when they have dementia-and there's aspiration risk?
I worked for years on a fairly large, secure, memory-care unit. I routinely consulted on clients exhibiting late-stage dementia. I saw the scenario from the beginning of this post play out countless times. I'd complete my evaluation, find swallowing function intact, and share environmental modifications and cueing to improve attention to task and functional communication, only to routinely find poor follow-through and continued weight loss despite my best efforts.
So after multiple failed attempts to fit these clients into the facility's system, I changed the system.
Here's how:
- I scheduled a meeting with the facility director, director of nursing and head of dietary services. I pulled relevant research articles citing topics related to unintentional weight loss in late-stage dementia (email me for references/resources) and the devastating effects of this weight loss on overall well-being.
- I complimented the facility on all the strategies and environmental modifications they already incorporated into their meal service, and then presented a list of clients with late-stage dementia still struggling to maintain their weight despite interventions.
- I provided further information about other effects of attention issues and wandering.
Once the facility administration agreed to "do more" in supporting these residents, I introduced the Grazers Program. (See exact implementation steps and sample forms I used to for this program.)
- We selected one resident from each hallway to participate based on weight-loss statistics, resistance to previous intervention and propensity for wandering—without the use of a walker or other assistive device.
- Facility "champions," consisting of various staff and even administration, work with target clients.
- Each champion has a time slot at the top of each hour to offer their resident a healthy nutrition option, including granola bars, shakes, fruits or other foods consistent with residents' prescribed diets. Instead of attempting to direct clients to sit in the dining area, the champions meet clients wherever they are and enter into the client's desired activity. If the resident is wandering, the champion approaches them, engages in functional communication to introduce the food item per previous instruction, then wanders with them, providing intermittent cues and modeling to consume more of the presented item. Champions often also consume items to further cue residents. Champions spend five to 10 minutes per encounter. This is the extent of each champion's duties. Routine weight checks monitor overall effectiveness of the program.
- I helped create a basic spreadsheet to track champions and their clients. Champions check off their time slot showing they presented an opportunity for nutrition. They check off their time, as long as they make an attempt, regardless of overall consumption.
- Monthly weigh-ins showed success for this program, so I wanted to boost these achievements by sponsoring champion team challenges: a "Biggest Gainer" contest, for example, where each team vied for their client to gain the most weight. Recognition for champions included shout-outs in facility newsletters, pizza parties and other rewards.
I know what you're thinking: This would never work in my facility. I wouldn't be able to find enough people with time to do this every day. Before you write it off, however, let me share a few points. Most facility's schedules already include times at which a resident is offered a nutrition opportunity. For instance, you don't need a champion at 8 a.m.—or whatever your facility's normal breakfast hour. The same is true for lunch and dinner. Many facilities also schedule snack or hydration times, so several hours are already covered.
Plus, each encounter is extremely short by design. This allows more staff to participate—including staff not typically involved in direct patient care. Many office staff found contributing in a tangible, patient-centered way to be exciting. Each champion volunteer—and we had more than we needed once the contests started—received brief training from staff SLPs on how to approach late-stage dementia clients and signs to watch for that may warrant nursing notification. In addition, we targeted only two or three residents at once.
Still need convincing that attempting to induce a shift in facility thinking is worth your efforts? I'll leave you with John's story. He was the first client I worked with using this program. He'd already experienced chronic weight loss when I met him. His wife was devastated by his "skin and bones" appearance, but stated she knew there was nothing that could be done. He couldn't focus at the table and he wandered all day. Upon reviewing his chart, I saw that his physician unsuccessfully tried an appetite stimulant and made a notation stating patient presents with late-stage dementia and is no longer able to gain weight.
I gathered my "champions," gave them a vision and a mission, and set them loose. John gained 10 pounds in the first week! The entire mood of his care team shifted. They achieved the impossible. They made a difference. I'll never forget it. As we targeted more clients and contests inspired more participation, almost every case resulted in successful weight gain or a stabilized loss—not because of some breakthrough discovery, but because we took the time to meet clients where they were. Literally. Their needs became more important than our routines. More important than our schedules.
After that first week, John's wife happily said to me, "Now there he is. That's what my John is supposed to look like." I was ecstatic! So, I was surprised when around three months later, she approached me and asked for John to "graduate" from the Grazers Program. I'll never forget her face when I questioned why. "He's starting to get a little chubby," she admitted. We had a good laugh over that.
None of us can defeat late-stage dementia (yet), but we can all take a few minutes to better serve this population. Put our hectic schedules and routine aside for a few minutes and meet them where they are.

Gartner: Acht mobile Technologien die man 2009 und 2010 im Auge behalten sollte
Laut dem IT-Marktforschungs- und Beratungsunternehmen Gartner werden sich acht mobile Technologien bis zum Jahr 2010 besonders entwickeln und die kurzfristigen Strategien im mobilen Umfeld beeinflussen. Die acht Technologien finden Sie in untenstehender Originalmeldung oder unter http://www.gartner.com/it/page.jsp?id=867012
Gartner: Mit zunehmender Anzahl an Prozessoren in Servern haben Unternehmen weniger Möglichkeiten, die gesamte Prozessorleistung auf den Servern zu nutzen.
Laut dem IT-Marktforschungs- und Beratungsunternehmen Gartner wird die sich fortsetzende Verdoppelung der Prozessoren pro Microprozessorchip die Gesamtprozessorzahlen von kommenden Servergenerationen an einen Punkt bringen, der das Niveau übersteigt, für das die wichtigsten Software-Lösungen entwickelt wurden. Betriebssysteme, Middleware, Virtualisierungswerkzeuge und Anwendungen werden alle gleichermaßen betroffen sein und Unternehmen vor schwierige Entscheidungen stellen.
in Englisch:
Stamford, Conn., January 28, 2008 — Gartner, Inc. has identified eight mobile technologies that will evolve significantly through 2010, impacting short-term mobile strategies and policies.
"All mobile strategies embed assumptions about technology evolution so it's important to identify the technologies that will evolve quickly in the life span of each strategy," said Nick Jones, vice president and distinguished analyst at Gartner. "The eight mobile technologies that we have pinpointed as ones to watch in 2009 and 2010 will have broad effects and, as such, are likely to pose issues to be addressed by short-term strategies and policies."
Gartner's eight mobile technologies to watch in 2009 and 2010
1. Bluetooth 3.0 —The Bluetooth 3.0 specification will be released in 2009 (at which point its feature set will be frozen), with devices starting to arrive around 2010. Bluetooth 3.0 will likely include features such as ultra-low-power mode that will enable new devices, such as peripherals and sensors, and new applications, such as health monitoring. Bluetooth originated as a set of protocols operating over a single wireless bearer technology. Bluetooth 3.0 is intended to support three bearers: "classic" Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and ultrawideband (UWB). It's possible that more bearers will be supported in the future. Wi-Fi is likely to be a more important supplementary bearer than UWB in the short term, because of its broad availability. Wi-Fi will allow high-end phones to rapidly transfer large volumes of data.
2. Mobile User Interfaces (UIs) —UIs have a major effect on device usability and supportability. They will also be an area of intense competition in 2009 and 2010, with manufacturers using UIs to differentiate their handsets and platforms. New and more-diverse UIs will complicate the development and support of business-to-employee (B2E) and business-to-consumer (B2C) applications. Organisations should expect more user demands for support of specific device models driven by interface preferences. Companies should also expect consumer interfaces to drive new expectations of application behavior and performance. Better interfaces will make the mobile web more accessible on small devices, and will be a better channel to customers and employees.
3. Location Sensing —Location awareness makes mobile applications more powerful and useful; in the future, location will be a key component of contextual applications. Location sensing will also enhance systems, such as mobile presence and mobile social networking. The growing maturity of on-campus location sensing using Wi-Fi opens up a range of new applications exploiting the location of equipment or people. Organisations delivering business or consumer applications should explore the potential of location sensing; however, exploiting it may create new privacy and security challenges.
4. 802.11n —802.11n boosts Wi-Fi data rates to between 100 Mbps and 300 Mbps, and the multiple-input, multiple-output technology used by 802.11n offers the potential for better coverage in some situations. 802.11n is likely to be a long-lived standard that will define Wi-Fi performance for several years. High-speed Wi-Fi is desirable to stream media around the home and office. From an organisational perspective, 802.11n is disruptive; it's complex to configure, and is a "rip and replace" technology that requires new access points, new client wireless interfaces, new backbone networks and a new power over Ethernet standard. However, 802.11n is the first Wi-Fi technology to offer performance on a par with the 100 Mbps Ethernet commonly used for wired connections to office PCs. It is, therefore, an enabler for the all-wireless office, and should be considered by companies equipping new offices or replacing older 802.11a/b/g systems in 2009 and 2010.
5. Display Technologies —Displays constrain many characteristics of both mobile devices and applications. During 2009 and 2010, several new display technologies will impact the marketplace, including active pixel displays, passive displays and pico projectors. Pico projectors enable new mobile use cases (for example, instant presentations projected on a desktop to display information in a brief, face-to-face sales meeting). Battery life improvements are welcome for any user. Good off-axis viewing enables images and information to be shared more easily. Passive displays in devices, such as e-book readers, offer new ways to distribute and consume documents. Display technology will also become an important differentiator and a user selection criterion.
6. Mobile Web and Widgets —The mobile web is emerging as a low-cost way to deliver simple mobile applications to a range of devices. It has some limitations that will not be addressed by 2010 (for example, there will be no universal standards for browser access to handset services, such as the camera or GPS). However, the mobile web offers a compelling total cost of ownership (TCO) advantage over thick-client applications. Widgets (small mobile web applets) are supported by many mobile browsers, and provide a way to stream simple feeds to handsets and small screens. Mobile web applications will be a part of most B2C mobile strategies. Thin-client applications are also emerging as a practical solution to on-campus corporate applications using Wi-Fi or cellular connections.
7. Cellular Broadband —Wireless broadband exploded in 2008, driven by the availability of technologies such as high-speed downlink packet access and high-speed uplink packet access, combined with attractive pricing from cellular operators. The performance of high-speed packet access (HSPA) provides a megabit or two of bandwidth in uplink and downlink directions, and often more. In many regions, HSPA provides adequate connectivity to replace Wi-Fi "hot spots," and the availability of mature chipsets enables organisations to purchase laptops with built-in cellular modules that provide superior performance to add-on cards or dongles.

As the third phase of our program draws nigh, many of my fellow PPPlers are still scrambling to secure internships. As the details of the work arrangements are being finalized, an interesting thing is occurring–namely, that some are actually requesting lower salaries than their employer initially offered them. Though this seems at first blush to be irrational, it is in fact the product of cold, calculating logic on the part of the program participants (and provides a neat case study in welfare policy, to boot!).
For the first two phases of the program, InWent, the German sponsoring organization, subsidizes most expenses both in-kind (e.g. such as providing free insurance coverage) and by providing a monthly stipend that helps cover daily expenses. For the third phase of the program, however, the subsidy InWent provides the participant is contingent on the size of the paycheck from the internship–as the paycheck gets bigger, the subsidies get smaller. This makes the biggest difference when it comes to rent: if the participant earns more than 715 € per month, he must pay the rent out of pocket, while any salary less than 715 € per month means the rent will be payed by InWent.
The calculation is then clear:
If (monthly salary-715) > (monthly rent), then accept salary; else request lower monthly pay of 714 €.
This is just common sense. If one is offered 800 € per month but would have to pay 200 € in rent, he would be much better off by forgoing the 86 € in income to gain 200 € in free rent, and that is exactly what some PPLers have done. The arrangement is not optimal, however–insofar as participants respond to the incentives in place, lower salaries are earned and InWent pays out more in rent than would otherwise be the case. Indeed, only the employers benefit by paying out less in wages.
Luckily, United States welfare reform in the mid-90s provides a good guide for an improvement. To vastly oversimplify things, prior to 1996 welfare was provided to the poor in a similar manner as InWent provides the subsidy for rent to a PPPler: one could enjoy benefits up to certain income level, above which all benefits would cease. The incentives were thus similarly crappy. Because governmental assistance abruptly ended at a specific wage, welfare recipients realized they'd paradoxically be worse off by earning more money. So instead of working harder and progressing up the ladder of success, they made sure to climb only to the highest rung that still allowed welfare assistance and then stayed put. To solve this problem, the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) was introduced and subsequently expanded. To again vastly oversimplify, the EITC acts as a wage subsidy on a sliding scale. Instead of the floor dropping out on benefits at a certain income level, the EITC guarantees a certain income level to the recipient. If the recipient is earning less than this income level, the EITC pays the difference. As the recipient earns more, the EITC pays him less, and when he reaches the income level where the EITC phases out it makes no difference to the recipient, who has every reason to continue progressing up the ladder.
An EITC-type solution would seem to work well for the rent subsidy. Instead of paying the full rent up to a certain point and then nothing at all, InWent should decrease the subsidy incrementally, corresponding to incremental increases in monthly pay. InWent could, for example, pay 100 percent of rent for monthly incomes below 700 €, but for every 50 € increase in monthly pay, InWent pays 10 percent less in rent. A participant earning 800 € per month would thus have 80 percent of his rent covered. In this way, InWent pays less in rent and the participant has more money to take home each month, a delightful Pareto improvement.
Fellow PPPlers might immediately see a problem with my whole line of reasoning, however. I'll address it in a subsequent (and much shorter) post.
Addendum: On second thought, the problem doesn't really need a second post. All that really need be said is most PPPlers don't earn more than 715 € and InWent is probably better off by assuming that only a small fraction of those who do will actually be willing and able to secure lower pay (and hence get the rent subsidy). This fact improves InWent's position, and since the power in the contractual relationship is tipped in InWent's favor, the welfare of the participants needn't figure much into their calculations. Thus, the current arrangement may be the stable equilibrium.

Recent reviews
Superb 9.0 From 93 reviews
We had a fabulous time staying at the Halepa Hotel. The staff bent over backwards to ensure our every need was met. Every resturaunt recommendation was a winner. Great selection for breakfast to start the day. The location is great because it is not too close to the harbor that you lose the parking spaces but not to far that you can't walk to get down there and enjoy the scenery. Highly recommended.
I recently stayed at the Halepa Hotel for 3 nights. It is very conveniently situated a short, scenic walk from the historic town and harbour, as well as some fabulous restaurants (one has tables that could not be nearer to the sea unless you were in it!) even closer. The building is impressive, the communal rooms are attractive, the bedrooms comfortable with high quality bed linens and toiletries, the garden and roof top terrace both pleasant places to have breakfast or relax. However, like other reviewers, I would say that it was the very courteous, helpful and guest-focused approach of the staff that most stood out. Special praise must go to Χάρις, who worked the late/night shift, and who was particularly helpful. Unphased by a request for a cocktail he had not heard of, he immediately found a recipe, found the ingredients and produced two delicious Negronis every night, served with style! A delightful hotel, excellent value for money and strongly recommended by someone who has high expectations!
Amazing time and stay. Excellent quality hotel. Very satisfying breakfast. Good location for visiting Chania and other points of interest. Very friendly and helpful stuff.
Lovely hotel, Lovely friendly staff. A little bit of a walk to main shops & eating places so not ideal for anyone with mobility issues. Very quiet rooftop lounge area with plunge pool. Only criticisms would be breakfast set up not ideal with guests kind of clambering over one another at the small buffet area & drinks a wee touch on the pricey side @ 15 euros for a gin & tonic & an amaretto (cheaper prices may encourage more nights in the hotel rather than going out. All in all we were very well looked after by the lovely friendly staff that couldn't do enough for us in our opinion. Would definitely return.
We had a 2 nights stay booked for 01/09. We were on a flight coming from the UK so we informed the hotel of our late arrival. Once at the airport we called the hotel again to tell them we would be here shortly; they answered that they were waiting for us and our room was ready. When we got to the hotel, we were then suddenly told the hotel was overbooked, that they had no room for us and we had to go to a different hotel!! The fact that we had already paid, it was 11pm, I was 5 months pregnant and we hadn't eaten didn't seem to even bother them - we barely got an apology! Therefore - I would give it a miss!
Is the description of this hotel not correct? Tell us

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. – The No. 1 Virginia Wesleyan University softball team shut out Berry College, 4-0, in the first game of the NCAA Division III Super Regional Friday afternoon at Marlin Park. With the win, the Marlins improve to 49-2 on the year and clip Berry's win streak at 15.
The Marlins came right out of the gates swinging, plating a run in the opening frame. With two outs, Cassetty Howerin earned a base-on-balls. The senior would then make it all the way around the diamond as freshman Katelyn Biando bounced a double off the left field fence.
Virginia Wesleyan would pick back up in the third inning, still up the one run. Beth Ford and Kiersten Richardson led the side off with back-to-back singles and were moved forward a base on a sacrifice bunt from Madison Glaubke. That brought up Howerin, who was recently named to the NFCA Top-10 Players in Division III List. The senior proved why she made that list as she belted a ball clear over the left field fence to give the Marlins the 4-0 lead.
With runs coming in, the defense had to play a solid game and they did just that. Hanna Hull dominated the pitcher's mound letting up just a single hit the entire contest. The sophomore struck out nine on the day and eclipsed the 300 strikeout mark for the second-straight season.
Jessica Lindsay also pinched in on the defensive end, using a perfect throw to catch a Viking runner stealing in the final frame.
Softball will return to action tomorrow as the squad will square off against Berry College with a ticket to Oklahoma City, Okla. on the line. The tilt will start at 2 p.m. with the "if necessary" game going directly afterwards. Be sure to check at vwuathletics.com and on twitter (@vwu_marlins) for any weather updates that may induce schedule changes.

In this guide, we'll take you through the setup of your Doro 8030, including how to put in the SIM, connect to the internet, and add your email accounts (along with other things).
Here are the items that you'll find in the box:
Before setting the phone up, you'll need to get the SIM in. Your Doro 8030 uses a MicroSIM, and you can add extra storage to it with a MicroSD card. Both of them go in the back of the phone, so you'll need to take the cover off first.
Look at the bottom-right of the phone for a small notch in the back cover. Use your thumbnail in this to prise the cover away from the phone.
With the cover off, slide the MicroSIM into the left-hand slot, at the top of the battery compartment. It needs to go in with the metal contacts facing down, and the cut-off corner going in first.
If you're using a MicroSD card, slide it into the right-hand slot, again with the metal contacts facing down.
Put the battery in, using the metal contacts to line it up.
Put the cover back over the phone, and press around the edges to secure it in place.
With everything in, press and hold the power button on the left-hand side of the phone for 2-3 seconds to turn it on, and start setting it up.
The first time the phone is turned on, you'll see the 'Startup Guide', which is a series of steps to help get the phone set up. If your SIM card isn't active, the phone will skip it and take you straight to the Home screen. To go through the Startup Guide, go to Settings > Startup Guide.
On the first screen, you'll be asked if this is your first smartphone, and the Startup Guide will change if it is. If you've used a smartphone before, tap No to skip some of the basics. If you've never used a smartphone before, tap Yes to go through the beginner Setup. This guide will follow the beginner steps.
If you know how to scroll on the screen, tap Yes, or tap No to see a tutorial.
Tap OK.
If the text size is fine for you, tap It is fine, or tap It is a bit small to change it.
Tap OK once the text size is set.
Hold the phone up to your ear and see if the earpiece speaker is loud enough. If it is, tap Loud and clear, if not tap It is not loud enough to turn the sound up.
Tap OK once the volume is set.
If you want to connect to the internet, tap Yes, or if not, tap No.
If you've got a broadband connection at home, tap Yes, or tap No if you don't.
If you pressed yes, you'll be asked if you have Wi-Fi at home. Tap Yes if you do, No if you don't, or I don't know if you're not sure.
If your Wi-Fi router has a 'WPS' button, tap Yes, then tap the WPS button on your router. If it doesn't, or if you're not sure, tap No.
To connect to Wi-Fi using a password, tap your Wi-Fi network from the list.
Type the password for your Wi-Fi, and press Connect.
If you've got a mobile data allowance with your SIM, tap Yes. If you don't, or you're not sure, tap No.
If you have, tap Yes to turn it on, or No to leave it off.
Tap OK to start adding a Google account - you'll need this if you want to download any new apps or games.
If you have a Google account, type in your email address and tap Next. If you don't have one, tap Or create a new account. If you don't need one, tap Skip.
If you're signing in, type in your password, and press Next.
You'll have to agree to Google's 'Terms of Service' and 'Privacy Policy'. Tap them to read them, then tap Accept to agree.
You might be asked to add some payment info to your Google account. To do it, choose a payment method, tap Continue, then fill out the details for it. If you don't want to add any, tap No, thanks, then Continue.
Read through the Google services, which include options to back up your information, and use your phone's location for things like maps and weather. Keep the boxes ticked for the things you want to use.
Tap Next.
To set up a 'screen lock' on your phone, tap Set screen lock now. We'll cover this later on in the guide, so to go back to the setup, tap Skip.
Tap OK to go back to the Startup Guide.
You'll be asked if you want to set any other bits up now - again we'll cover these later in this guide, so tap No to carry on.
Tap OK to read the Doro 'Terms and Conditions'.
Read through the terms, or tap Go to end to skip to the bottom.
Tap Accept to continue.
The Startup Guide is almost finished. If you want to see some FAQs about the phone, tap Yes, or tap No to go to finish off the Setup.
You'll be shown some information on the buttons of your Home screen, including the Call, View and Send buttons, read through each and tap OK to move on.
When you're at the end of the demonstration, tap Quit to go to the Home screen.
The Startup Guide is finished, and you'll be on the Home screen. You can start using the phone, and the rest of this guide will help you to get things like email and the lock screen set up.
At the bottom of the phone are three navigation buttons that can help you get around the phone.
'Recent apps' (square): shows the apps you've used before.
'Home' (house): always takes you back to the Home screen.
'Back' (triangle): takes you back, or closes an app you're using.
Your phone needs an internet connection for things like downloading new apps, connecting to email or going to websites. You can connect using Wi-Fi, or mobile data, and we'll go through both here.
Before trying to connect to Wi-Fi, you'll need to know the password for it. If it's your home Wi-Fi, the password will normally be printed on a sticker on your router.
Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to go to the actions menu.
Tap the Set button.
Tap My Internet Connection.
Tap on Wi-Fi.
Tap the Wi-Fi network you want to connect to.
Type in the password for the Wi-Fi.
Tap Connect.
If it's worked, you'll see the word 'Connected' underneath your Wi-Fi, and you'll see the Wi-Fi signal bars at the top of the screen.
Your phone will remember the password for the Wi-Fi, so that whenever you are in range of the signal, you'll be connected. If you want to disconnect, press and hold on the Wi-Fi name, and then press Disconnect.
Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to go to the actions menu.
Tap the Set button.
Tap My Internet Connection.
Tap on My Mobile Data Settings.
Check that the switch at the top is set to 'Enabled' - tap it to turn it on if it's disabled.
If you're having any problems with your mobile data connection, you might need to put in the 'APN settings'. Don't worry if you don't know what they are, we've got detailed guides for each network and how to put them in here.
This is how to add new email account to your Doro 8030.
From the Home screen, tap the View button.
In the pop-up menu, tap My emails.
Tap + Add an account at the bottom.
Tap Add existing account.
Type in your email address and password, then press OK.
Give it a moment to download your email settings.
Type in your name to 'send as', which will show on the end of emails.
Type a label for the account, then pick a colour and tap Confirm.
If you have any problems adding your email account, you might need to type in the settings for it. Don't worry if you don't know them, we have a guide to email server settings that will help out.
Setting up a lock screen on your Doro 8030 will help keep it safe. There are a few different options to choose from, and we'll go through them here.
Swipe up from the bottom of the screen.
Tap on the Set button.
Tap A general option.
Tap on My screen lock.
Choose the type of screen lock you want to use:
Type or draw your lock, then tap Continue.
Do it again, and tap OK.
Choose which notifications you want to see on the lock screen, and tap Done.
Your screen lock is set up, and the next time you unlock your phone you'll be asked for it.

Pentax has an unusual approach to the digital camera market. While the other manufacturers have a wide range of models in all the different categories – ultra-compact style cameras, standard zoom compacts, superzooms, semi-pro "bridge" cameras and DSLRS – for several years now Pentax has poured most of its resources into just two of those categories, ultra-compacts and DSLRs. This might seem like a risky strategy, but perhaps Pentax figures that it's better to be the master of two trades than Jack of all.
As a result the Pentax digital camera range currently consists of three DSLRs and no fewer than sixteen 3x optical zoom ultra-compact cameras. Within the range are many variations on the basic theme, with sensor resolutions ranging from 5.0 to 10.0 megapixels, some cameras powered by AA batteries and others by rechargeable Li-ion cells, and also the W-series of waterproof cameras, including the W20 that I reviewed last week. If you're looking for a compact digital camera with a 3x zoom lens, the chances are that Pentax has something that will suit your needs.
One of the latest is this, the Optio T20. It's a 7.0-megapixel model featuring a big 3in high resolution monitor and an innovative touch-screen menu system. Launched late last year with a list price of £249.99, it is currently available at retail for around £185. This puts it at about the mid point in the price range for 7-megapixel compacts, compared with such models as the Casio Exilim EX-Z70 (£140), Olympus mju 700 (£140), Sony DSC-W70 (£160), Canon IXUS i7 Zoom (£190), Ricoh caplio R5 (£205), Kodak Easyshare V705 (£209), Nikon Coolpix S7c (£215) and Canon IXUS 850 IS (£244).
Like its siblings it features Pentax's 6.2-18.6mm (37.5mm-112.5mm equiv.) Sliding Lens System, which folds down flush with the camera's body. This allows the T20 to be just 19.5mm thick, making it one of the slimmest cameras available. It has a very sleek and minimalist appearance, with a simple rectangular shape rounded off on the top and bottom edges. The body is all aluminium alloy which feels nice and sturdy, and build quality is of a very high standard. Weighing 135g it is nice and light and won't make much of a bulge in your shirt pocket.
Because of its touch-screen control system there are only two buttons on the back panel, so despite the large monitor there is plenty of room to grip the camera, with a large textured thumb grip area on the back.

Hot and cheesy spinach dip, grab some chips, toasts or crudites and dig in! Perfect for parties or gatherings, you can double or triple the recipe as needed.
I first posted this recipe back in 2010, my oldest daughter Karina loves this dip! It was the only way I could get her to east spinach and made it often for her as an after school snack. With the Superbowl coming I thought I would revive it! You can prepare this a day ahead and bake as needed. It can also be frozen before heating up if you want to prepare this a few days ahead.

A Coleraine woman pulled hair from the head of a former friend she has "history" with during an encounter outside a Portstewart pub.
Lyndsey Davis (20), of Quickthorn Place, appeared at Coleraine Magistrates Court last Thursday and admitted charges of common assault and also damaging a necklace belonging to the woman.
A prosecutor said the injured party said she was assaulted outside the Anchor Bar and the court was told there was a "history" going back to school days and the two women do not get along. The prosecutor said the injured woman said Davis pulled her hair and struck her, pulling some of her hair out causing her to be physically sick and a necklace was broken.
Davis admitted to police there had been a scuffle and said both parties were pulling each other other's hair and accepted the two did not get on.
Defence barrister Francis Rafferty said the women had been friends at one stage but had fallen out.
He said Davis had expressed remorse "and will do her level best to avoid such scenarios again".
District Judge Chris Holmes bound the defendant over on the sum of £500 to keep the peace for two years and ordered her to pay £90 compensation for the broken necklace.

Summer hasn't started until you've made a peach and blueberry cobbler. It's kind of a must. Typically I'm a chocolate chip cookie and cake kind of girl, but I'll never turn down an in season fruit cobbler. It's kind of the perfect end to a summer meal.
I love how cobblers are versatile, unlike most baking recipes. But here, you use any fruit you like, or anything that's fresh, sweet, and in season! I chose the most beautiful peaches from the farmer's market, contrasted with plump blueberries. Perfection!
Feel free to use plums, cherries, strawberries, or raspberries! You can't go wrong.
Peach & Blueberry Cobbler
- Yield: 4 1x
- 8 large peaches
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 tablespoons lemon zest (zest from 1 lemon)
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 1/2 tablespoons all purpose flour
For the crumble
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup old fashioned oats
- 3/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 stick butter (COLD and diced)
- 1) Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the peaches and boil for 30 seconds. Remove and place peaches in a large bowl of ice water. Once peaches are cool, carefully remove the skins. They should come off easily by just pushing back on the skins.
- 2) Dice peaches into large cubes. Add the peaches, blueberries, sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons flour to a bowl. Mix until well combined then let rest while you make the crumble. If mixture becomes too juicy, add a little more flour.
- 3) In a food processor, electric mixer, or using your hands, combine the brown sugar, oats, flour, cinnamon, and cold butter, until mixture comes together and has formed little crumbs the size of peas.
- 4) Grease the inside of a 9×13 inch baking dish and pour in the peach and blueberry mixture. Evenly sprinkle the crumble topping and bake for 50-60 minutes, until top is lightly browned and crisp, and the fruit is bubbly. Let sit for at least 10 minutes before serving, and top with vanilla ice cream.
Don't forget the ice cream!

It may be a while away, but already, the summer of 2015 is becoming known as the Summer of Sequels (at least by me!). If you're wondering what I'm talking about, just look at this list of sequels that are being released in 2015 – ok, some of them aren't released in the summer but Year of Sequels doesn't quite have the same ring to it!
Phew! That's one monster of a list, and that's still only some of the sequels set to be released! In an attempt to get ahead, I'm going to be taking a look back at the original films, plus taking a look at what we're set to see in the sequels – starting with… The Avengers: Age of Ultron!
While I go to rewatch and write up, which film on this list are you most looking forward to?

The countdown to football season has begun and I can't believe we already have our fantasy football draft next week. Last year we kept the decor and menu to a pretty classic football theme, so this season we are changing things up and adding a little mexican flare to the menu. From a margarita bar, to the chips and salsa- this is the perfect type of menu for a quick post work party set-up. Here are some things that are inspiring me. Women Who Score is back for its third season, and I have a feeling this is going to be my year!
no plates needed for this bar set-up
my mom's salsa is a menu staple
I love a classic margarita

Talisman Energy Inc. was downgraded to underweight from neutral by J.P. Morgan analyst Katherine Lucas Minyard, who thinks the oil and gas producer's restructuring and asset monetization efforts may not be enough to attract capital.
"Despite relatively significant portfolio rationalization efforts underway at Talisman, lack of clarity around what assets Talisman will sell, and thus an uncertain operational and financial profile of the remaining company, may keep investors on the sidelines," Ms. Lucas Minyard told clients, reiterating her $13 price target on the stock.
However, the analyst believes industry consolidation is a risk to her bearish outlook, particularly given the similarities between Talisman and Nexen Inc., another mid-cap Canadian explorer and producer with a global portfolio, which was acquired early in 2013. As a result, J.P. Morgan's options team recommends protecting short positions in Talisman shares with a long position in call options.
The company wants to dispose of $2-billion to $3-billion worth of assets in the next 12 to 18 months, roughly split between its North American and international operations. Ms. Lucas Minyard thinks Talisman has the opportunity to raise $7-billion.
However, she noted the stock is not trading at a significant discount to its underlying value. The analyst also pointed out the remaining company will still be an eclectic mix of operations at a time when investors seem to prefer pure plays.

After 37 years, Terry announces retirement from SWBTS
Jack Terry Jr., vice president of institutional advancement at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas, announced during the fall meeting of seminary's Board of Trustees Oct. 18 that he will be stepping down from his position at the end of the year.
Terry said he would assume a "semi-retired" status Dec. 31 and will continue to work for the seminary part time. He will remain chairman of the seminary's centennial celebration committee, which is preparing events for Southwestern's anniversary in 2008.
"Barbara and I thank you," Terry said. "It has been a great, exciting journey."
Seminary President Paige Patterson lauded Terry's contribution to Southwestern as a teacher, dean, administrator and vice president.
"There is not an anthill in the U.S. where Jack is not on a personal, first-name basis with some of the ants, and has tried to get them to contribute to Southwestern," Patterson said. He also announced that the seminary community would "throw a gala celebration" for Terry in March.
"If there were a Mt. Rushmore here on the campus, I think there would be three faces on it: B.H. Carroll, L.R. Scarborough and Jack Terry," Patterson said. "We can never pay back all the generosity and contributions to this institution in his 37 years of service."
Once the dean of the religious education school at Southwestern, Terry moved into the role of vice president and began fund raising for several building projects. Among other projects, he raised the funds to construct the seminary's Ray I. Riley Alumni Center and the Jack W. MacGorman Conference Center, home of Southwestern's Center for Leadership Development.
This summer, Fort Worth Business Press recognized Terry as one of Fort Worth's outstanding mentors. Greg Tomlin, director of public relations at Southwestern, said Terry has exhibited the qualities of a godly leader in his various roles at the seminary.
"When you look at Jack Terry's life, you see all of these churches he has had his hand in from East Texas to Kaiserslautern, Germany," Tomlin said. "Each one of them has benefited from his ministry, even as he was serving at Southwestern in some capacity. He is a true church leader, a gifted communicator, and a trusted friend."
Terry will continue to raise funds for the seminary, including for the construction of a new 3,500-seat chapel. Seminary trustees were shown a digital "fly over" of the new building, which will serve as the center of campus life. Patterson said the new chapel was "essential to our future growth." Southwestern is one of the few theological schools in the country, he said, that still has no freestanding chapel.
Trustees approved the process allowing the seminary administration to pursue the full architectural design and funding for the new chapel. Vice President of Business Administration Greg Kingry said that there was a "sense of urgency" to get the new chapel well underway by the seminary's centennial celebration in 2008.
In other business:
-- Trustees elected Craig V. Mitchell as assistant professor of Christian ethics, effective immediately. Mitchell, who has been serving at Southwestern under presidential appointment for three years, is a veteran of the U.S. Air Force. During his military career, he tested air and spacecraft at sites across the United States. He holds three master's degrees and a Ph.D. from Southwestern Seminary. Mitchell is a research fellow with the Southern Baptist Convention's Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission.
-- Trustees voted to award the seminary's B.H. Carroll Award to Steve and Kathy Spotts of Euless, Texas. Steve Spotts is president and CEO of Pathology Partners, Inc., a specialty laboratory company based in Irving, Texas. The company specializes in cancer diagnostics and detecting gastrointestinal diseases. Spotts often speaks to secular business leaders on the how to run successful operations according to biblical principles. The B.H. Carroll award is given annually.
-- Patterson announced that the seminary would soon bring recommendation to its trustees to enhance its program of study in biblical archaeology. George Kelm, a retired Southwestern Seminary faculty member, will assist in the development of the program.
Patterson said that the goal of the program was to have at least two professors in the program so the seminary could offer a Ph.D. in archaeology. Southwestern is already home to the Tandy Archaeological Museum, which houses a collection of Israeli antiquities from Tel Batash or Timnah, a Philistine city described in Judges 14.
Patterson also announced that the seminary would soon bring a recommendation to trustees that the school develop an Anabaptist study center in honor of longtime professor William R. Estep.
-- Kingry reported on the extensive investigation his office conducted to assess the best direction the seminary should take with respect to insurance coverage, comparing fully funded with self-funded programs, and also responding to a recommendation from the Southern Baptist Convention.

When your pet has tapeworms, it's important to head to your veterinarian and get some Cestex for dogs or cats right away. This anthelmintic dewormer can help your beloved pooch or feline get back to normal quickly. But before you find yourself in a position where a prescription of Cestex for dogs or cats is imminent, it's a good idea to know a little bit about the enemy you're fighting and how to prevent it in the future.
What are tapeworms?
Tapeworms are parasites that live in your pet's intestines and feed off their nutrients. Ranging from a few inches to feet in length, these worms latch their heads into the walls of the intestines to suck nutrients from your pet's diet. Their impact is often minimal. They don't take the same high amount of nutrients that other parasites can and rarely lead to serious damage.
When a tapeworm makes itself at home in your pet's gut, it begins to breed. In addition to gaining sustenance, it also passes its eggs out through your dog's or cat's stool. Many of the tapeworm's many body segments are simply egg sacks ready to be spread by the host animal's feces. Therefore, if a tapeworm's body is destroyed, but the head stays intact and attached to the pet's intestines, the tapeworm can survive and rebuild.
Your cat or dog likely got the tapeworms from a flea. Fleas carry tapeworms, and even one flea can give your pooch or cat the parasite. So, if you're at the dog park, groomer's, or even the veterinarian, your pet may be in danger. The Companion Animal Parasite Council advised that pet owners use year-round flea and tick prevention methods to avoid tapeworms in the first place.
For example, if you treat your dog with Frontline Plus for Dogs or your cat with Advantage II, there's a lesser chance your pet will contract tapeworms. Keeping your dog from eating things off the ground (i.e., dead animals, stool, etc.) is also a good way to reduce the chances of tapeworm. Cats may come into contact with fleas or tapeworms from mice or other rodents as well, so be on the lookout.
When is it time for Cestex for dogs or cats?
The only way to tell if your pet has tapeworms is to check the stool. If you notice small, rice-like white worms, your pet may have tapeworms. They may also be scratching or licking their rear, because the worms are itchy. Have these symptoms checked out or just take your pet for a routine checkup and your veterinarian will be able to diagnose your beloved cat or dog. If they have tapeworms, the veterinarian will likely prescribe Cestex for dogs or cats.

To the list of the qualities of dogs enthusiastic and steadfast come to mind can be added another. That pooch of yours, researchers say, may be envious.
Scientists in Austria report in The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences that a dog may stop obeying a command if it sees that another dog is getting a better deal.
In this way dogs may be showing a sensitivity that is similar to, although perhaps more primitive than, that shown by chimpanzees and some monkeys. Until now those primates were the only nonhumans to show what is called "inequity aversion" in the absence of a reward.
The finding may come as no surprise to some dog owners, and it didn't completely surprise Friederike Range, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Vienna who led the study.
"We have a dog at home," she said, "and I know how jealous she is of different people and situations."
The study tried to quantify the behavior by using well-trained dogs that readily offer a paw on command. The researchers used two dogs side by side but treated them differently, giving one a better reward (sausage) and the other a lesser one (bread) when the paw was given, or giving one dog no reward at all.
They found that the quality of the reward made little difference. But in the case in which one dog got no treat at all, that dog became less and less inclined to obey the command.

08 Jul 6 Tips For Choosing an Electrical Contractor
Choosing the right electrical contractor to do work at your home or business can be a daunting task, particularly if you've never worked with a contractor before. An electrician may be necessary when you are working on the electricity for a remodel, repairing or installing a heating, air conditioning or HVAC system, or when you are simply in need of professional electrical services. Here we look at 6 tips on how to choose an electrical contractor to work with – from where to find electricians, to asking the right questions and selecting the right electrician for you.
- Define What You Need
Before you even begin looking for or contacting electrical contractors, you need to clearly define what work you need done, and the nature and terms of your project. Calling an electrical contractor to come in for a few service calls is quite different to enlisting the services of an electrician to work on a larger project such as a remodel or home addition. Knowing what you're looking for from the beginning helps in your search for the right contractor for your needs.
- Search For an Electrical Contractor
Do you know anyone who has recently had electrical work done? Know anybody in the construction industry who might have recommendations? Word of mouth and recommendations are still one of the best ways to find a great electrical contractor to work with. But if you don't have any leads, the next best technique is to conduct an online search in your area for local electrical contractors, such as 'Livermore electrical contractors' and use testimonials and reviews to find a contractor you trust.
- Check References
Once you've conducted your initial search, you can ask contractors for references from their previous work, in order to better gauge what it is like to work with them. Although some contractors may not have a list of reviews or testimonials on hand, experienced contractors should be willing and able to provide references when requested.
- Check Licenses and Insurance
Of course, for the safety of your home and its occupants, it's worthwhile asking for and checking an electrical contractors license and insurance information. Although it's rare, if something unexpected were to happen, you want to ensure you're covered in the case of any damage or injury.
- Get Free Estimates
Most electrical contractors will provide free estimates which is a great way to know in advance what you might be up for in terms of costs for your project, as well as allowing you to get to know your potential contractor better. While cheaper does not necessarily mean better, getting a range of quotes can help you establish what is reasonable while also exposing you to a range of professionals in the electrical industry.
- Get the Proposal in Writing
Once you have chosen the electrical contractor you will work with, it's time to write down the details of the proposal for your records, to ensure all the necessary details are included and that it accurately reflects your needs and goals for your project.
While choosing an electrical contractor can seem daunting, with these tips you can ask the right questions and take the right steps to choose the best electrical contractor for your needs.

Where To Find The Answers To My Math Homework Without Trouble
Numbers make up everything we see around us. They are in the ratios of distance in our bodies, the angles of our furniture and the quantities of the ingredients in every food we eat. Math, though difficult, is not something you can ignore. Nor should you. If you feel the urge to discard math, take heart, it gets easier if you work at it. Here are some tips to help you get the answers to your math assignments at home.
Know how to use a search engine
The internet is vast. Without proper research skills you can find yourself going through heaps of useless junk without ever seeing the type of answer you need. Get familiar with narrowing your searches down and you won't have as much work to do. One unavoidable problem you will face is that some people have put bad answers online as a joke and you may not be able to spot them immediately. This makes it important for you to never just use an answer you find online without trying it for yourself to see if it works.
Ask people in real life
Having regular internet access can make it easy to forget how much you can learn from people face to face. Your parents may be experts at the type of math problem you've been spending hours struggling through. Your siblings might have done the exact homework assignment only a few years before and be willing to show you their work. Your friends may be willing to do the homework with you and explain what they're doing as they go along.
Practice Regularly
Your brain is much like a muscle in that it becomes stronger with repeated use. The thing is, you can use one aspect of your brain power and strengthen it without paying the same attention to the others. If you, for instance, study Spanish regularly because you like it, your brain is getting exercised but not in the regions that can help you with math. Do more questions than you need to and over time you will become smarter and you may even be able to do some of the simpler calculations at lightening speed in your head. Faster even than someone else could reach for a calculator.
All of these methods can help you and they're guaranteed not to cause you any trouble.
