Steve Carell wants Kristen Wiig in all his movies
- Bang Showbiz
- 29 June 2017
Hollywood stars Steve Carell and Kristen Wiig have both said they would like to work with each other on every movie they make because they get on so well
Steve Carell would love to work with Kristen Wiig on every movie.
The two actors first starred together in 2010's 'Date Night' and have since made five movies together including comedy sequel 'Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues'.
Now they have teamed up again for animation 'Despicable Me 3' and Carell wishes Wiig was always his co-star.
Speaking on 'This Morning', 54-year-old Carell said: "I think she's the best. That sounds like hyperbole but it's not. She's never not good. She is always funny in her dramatic work, she is always incredible. And also she is an incredibly kind and pleasant person to be with."
His co-star also repaid compliments to the comedy actor and said she would work with him forever.
Wiig, 43, said: "I would love to work with Steve forever. When we did 'Anchorman' we actually got to work with each other. It's just easy and fun and he is just the nicest person."
The third 'Despicable Me' film follows Gru (Carell) who, along with his wife Lucy (Wiig), gets fired from the Anti-Villain League.
Gru discovers he has a long-lost twin brother and meets up with him for the first time and the two form an uneasy alliance to stop Balthazar Bratt, a former 1980s child star seeking to conquer the world.
Although the two actors provide their voices to the animated characters, Carell revealed that the pair recorded all their voice parts separately.
He said: "The sad thing is that we are in the movie together, and really the only time we work together is doing press.
"Because when we do our voice sessions, they're always separate. But I always have in the back of my mind how Kristen is going to be doing it."

Choosing a nursery for your child to attend requires thought and planning.
You may already have had experience of choosing childcare by using a childminder or employing a nanny. Or you might be looking for a nursery place for your baby's first childcare experience. Whatever stage you're at in your childcare search, PACEY can help.
How can you recognise quality in a childcare setting? Read top tips on finding the perfect nursery in this fantastic blog by expert Maggie Bellamy.
Find out more about what nurseries do
Most day nurseries are privately run and can be stand alone businesses, part of a small chain of two or three settings or part of a much larger chain or franchise of 50 or more settings. Some employers provide nursery places for their staff close to work. Day nurseries may run from modern purpose built buildings or in converted spaces. Settings vary in size from 20 to over 180 places and will often be split into rooms for different aged children.
Due to the range of ages of children that may attend nurseries, there could be up to four different carer to child ratios in operation at any one time.
Ratios in England
Ratios in Wales
Although open all week, most offer the option of a range of half and full days that can be mixed and matched to meet the needs of the family.
Many day nurseries will provide breakfast, lunch and tea, the cost of which is normally included in their fees. Some include formula milk up to the age of 1 and some even the cost of nappies.
All day nurseries must be registered with Ofsted in England or CIW in Wales and will be inspected by them.
Families normally would have to apply to the nursery in a similar way to you would for a school place. If your application is successful, you will either be allocated a morning of an afternoon place. You could use your 15 hours of nursery education funding to pay for the place.
As nursery classes are part of the wider school they are inspected under the school's Ofsted or Estyn inspection.

superior superior superior shore
Going through lake photos. We swam in three of the great lakes (missed out on Erie and Ontarior). Superior is truly the coldest, most sea-like, the clearest, hosts the best rocks. My favorite.
So we start back to school tomorrow. First time in six years that I've taught on a Monday--so I'm in for a true opener. The summer season isn't officially closed and I'm already in mourning.

I delicately roll my smoke. I'm in a calm mood tonight.
My feelings are still hurt, but I feel peaceful and light .
Puff, puff, blow. . .
Mary always has time for me.
The coat Mary wears tonight is new.
It's furry and thick with the loveliest dark purple flecks, and that fabulous new coat smell.
"Mary Mary quite contrary. . ."
"Believe it or not I'm walking on air …."
My random thoughts-of-everything start to hum to the tune of various songs ,
and my thoughts-of-nothing begin doing fancy "Nightfever" moves behind my eyes.
Mary looks into my eyes again, and my mouth goes dry from her stare. . .
*It's now an hour (ish) later – I've been struck dumb!
Bloody Mary got me good and proper this time!! 🙂

Amazon is considered to be one for the most wanted employers among software engineers who don't work for any of the tech giants. Standing in one line with Google, Microsoft, Facebook and maybe some smaller like Twitter, Uber, Dropbox etc., it has unstoppable flow of CV's from people passionate of working on big scale.
But is it really that cool, demanding and, in the end, rewarding? A lot of people would disagree with that, others will be neutral and there will be only few of those who will agree. For example, typical everyday job of server-side SDE II responsible for customer experience with purchasing goods can only consist of sending/receiving requests to/from internal web-services, validating input data, fixing small bugs and that's all. Oh no, there's one more thing - on-call rotations. So one week every few months (that depends on a team, but just to give you an idea) that employee despite of his "interesting and challenging" duties will be responsible for fixing bugs on production asap which literally means ASAP - during the weekend, in the evening, in the night - doesn't matter.
That is why Amazon looks for people who won't whine about such lifestyle. Amazon has a dozen of so-called "principles" (read "search criteria for new employees") where some are contradictory to the others. Like they need employees who have a "bias for action" but are "insisting on highest standards" or who are "frugal" but "think big" and stuff like that. Interviewers will ask you about how do you match with these principles and what they're really interested in is if you had experience working overtime, on the weekends, under pressure, overnight - in order to deliver results in short terms and fix bugs. They clearly tell you about it - if you're weak in programming or algorithms - it does not matter if on the other hand you're used to working overtime just to deliver results.
So how to pass Amazon interview? They will ask you about your experience and definitely will ask you to give them example where you had tight deadlines and half-finished task. They want to hear how did you work overnights and did not complain for that. If they will - you've passed even if your solution for their O(N^2) dynamic programming puzzle is NP-complete.

Pattern: Butterick 2952
Year: early 60s
Fabric: ca. 1.6m blue cotton broadcloth
Notions: zipper, petersham ribbon and hook and bar for waist-stay
Time: ca 4-5h
New Techniques: Lapped zipper
Cost: about 15$
I know I know.. NOT AGAINN! But this was a quick dress I made in mid-october.
I made it sleeveless like the red one, but with a scoop neck like the pink one. There's not much to say about this one. It's the first time I tried a lapped zipper (so it wouldn't break like the one on the pink sheath), and it was easy to do with this fabric. The only problem is that the tap stands up at the top. I would attach a hook and eye, but the whole point in lowering the back was that I could zip it up on my own, and hook and eyes are kinda hard to close on yourself (or well maybe that's just me :)).
Also, the skirts angle at the hem isn't quite right, it stands out too straight. And I'm not so sure about the color, it's a lighter shade of blue than I expected. I guess it's just a very "cool" blue, and I think warm blues are better for my skincolor :) (plus I don't like the red-blue combo too much in this outfit, I just couldn't find other accessories that would work.. which isn't a good sign haha)
I'm happy with it, but I don't think it's going to be my favorite or get that much wear. Then again, it's winter, and this is more of a spring/summer dress.

Here's some food for thought: scientists have discovered that better eating habits and better foods have saved more than a million American lives.
The researchers looked at people shifting to healthier diets over the past decade-and-a-half, and calculated that it had prevented 1.1 million premature deaths.
The healthier diets had also reduced the number of people getting life threatening diseases as well. Researchers saw the number of type 2 diabetes drop more than 12%, cardiovascular disease fell by more than 8%, and cancer cases dropped by 1.3%.
But the single biggest change to diets over the 14 years was the result of new federal and local rules on trans fats.
RELATED: Mediterranean Diet and Extra Olive Oil Can Lower Risk of Breast Cancer
In 1999, the FDA made it clear they planned to post tighter rules on the artery-clogging fats, and soon, individual U.S. states followed the lead: New York City banned them in 2006, and California outlawed them in restaurant food in 2008.
Since then, restaurants and food companies in other states started removing trans fats from their menus and ingredients even before the FDA banned them nationwide earlier this year.
RELATED: Diet May Cut Risk of Alzheimer's by 50% (Long-term Study of 900 Seniors)
Researchers at Harvard's T. H. Chan School of Public Health said the government regulations alone accounted for half the improvement in dietary quality over the course of their study.
They also noted that people drank 36% fewer sugary drinks over the course of the study.
The researchers used a measure called the Alternate Healthy Eating Index 2010 to gauge what people ate. The scale ranged from zero (the poorest diet) to 110 (the healthiest diet possible). They used the scale to measure changes in 34,000 people's diets from 1999 to 2014. Then, they added in information about the eating habits of 173,000 other people in two other nutrition studies.
ALSO: Perk Up, Coffee Lovers: Protect Your Liver With Every Cup
The lead author, Dong Wang, a doctoral candidate at the Chan School, said the study shows that healthy diets should be a public policy priority. He argues that changes to public food support programs, like SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program), could significantly improve health and life expectancy in America.
Even though the average diet score during the study never topped 50 on the scale — less than halfway to the perfect diet — researchers noticed improvements in health and life expectancy.
"The most important takeaway is that even small improvement in dietary quality can lead to substantial reduction in disease risk and disease burden," Wang told CBS News.
Their findings were published in the journal Health Affairs.

In Nu Skin, organization is the most important, we have to have a burning desire to help our team succeed, and we have to have a mindset of "The best for the team always."
The start of success is from your clear goals and work for it without stopping until you succeed. Always ask yourself, "Do I have goals this year?" if the answer is "No" then you need to set goals, and if the answer is "Yes" but you have not got it yet, then you need to focus and work hard consistently without giving up no matter what the obstacles are.
The difference that you can make today is what Nu Skin prepared for everyone, and the only thing you need to do is to make a decision. You will succeed by believing in Nu Skin, believe in the people working with you, and most of all, believe in yourself. Nu Skin is the key to designing your own future with the freedom of time, wealth, and health.

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk became the first Head of State to respond directly to our call for world leaders to attend the UN Climate Summit.
Activists took the demand of world leaders to the Central and Eastern Europe Heads of States meeting in Cracow, demanding a "Time for Solidarity for climate now" on the 20th anniversary of the first free election in Poland.
Solidarity was an independent labour union at the center of the eventual collapse of the Soviet Union and considered to be primary catalyst of Poland's move away from communism and towards its EU membership and democracy. Activists in Poland called on governments to step up and now show solidarity with developing countries who are already suffering the most from climate change impacts.
They called on him to take personal responsibility and agree to attend the UN Climate Summit.
Prime Minister Tusk responded directly to the call by coming right out and accepting a copy of our Copenhagen Demands, shaking hands with our Climate campaigner Julia Michalak, and agreeing to show up for the UN meeting in December.
Next up? President Obama and Chancellor Merkel, who are set to meet tomorrow in Germany to discuss climate change. This is the perfect opportunity for the US and Germany to show they are serious about climate change solutions, to take personal responsibility for ensuring a good deal at the UN Climate Summit in December by committing to be there..
The climate deal negotiated in December must ensure developed countries take the necessary steps to cut emissions, tackle climate change as well as ensure that developing countries can continue to grow their economies in a sustainable way. To avoid the worst impacts of climate change, science tells us that developed nations must collectively achieve emissions cuts of at least 25-40 percent below 1990 levels by 2020 and 80-95 percent by 2050.
Greenpeace is calling for governments of developed countries to provide USD 140 billion a year to tackle the climate crisis and to fund both mitigation and adaptation measures in developing countries. Approximately USD 40 billion a year of this should be designated to forest protection.
Tell Obama of the US, Hu of China, Brown of the UK, Merkel of Germany, Sarkozy of France, and Lula of Brazil that they must join Prime Minister Tusk, clear their calendars and show up at the UN meeting to secure the future of the planet, and take personal action to get us out of this mess.
We rely on donations from individuals like you in order to continue fighting climate change and demanding solutions. We do not accept any money from governments or corporations. Please give what you can.

The great Cambridge-Oxford Potomac Boat Race will take place on the afternoon of October 1. The race will start around 2:00 PM. Spectators can gather on the Georgetown waterfront and get a drink at Nick's Riverside Grill as you wait. A facilitator will be on hand at the waterfront/Nick's to relay live information as the boats approach the finish line at the Waterfront.
Be sure to support the Light Blue by sporting your college attire, boat club blazers, scarves or whatever finery you picked up while at Cambridge. As Cantab DC's oldest and most successful event it would be great to see a strong Cambridge turnout to support our Light Blue squads and the Society.
After the races, participants and supporters from both teams will congregate for post-race drinks and further celebrations. Friends and family are welcome.
About the Cantab DC Boat Club and the Potomac Challenge Cup
The Cantab DC Boat Club trains on the Potomac every summer, culminating in the Cambridge-Oxford Potomac Challenge Cup in late Summer/early Fall. All Cambridge alumni are welcome to row with us. The race, of course, follows in the tradition of the The Boat Race in London, where Cambridge and Oxford Crews compete for the coveted champion title. Similarly the Potomac Boat Race has an interesting historic foundation that is rooted in a challenge between Secretary of the U.S. Navy, John F. Lehman Jr. and U.S. Senator Larry Lee Pressler. You can read more about these historic beginnings of the Potomac Boat Races online.

The ARTP has periodically conducted surveys of respiratory services and staffing. These surveys date back to 1995 and the last survey was conducted in 2005, which was then the most comprehensive survey to date. The data collected at that time has been used extensively by the ARTP to inform interested parties, in particular the Department of Health, the Workforce Review Team (England) and the Centre for Workforce Intelligence and has been recognised as the best reference dataset for any Physiological Science group.
This survey addresses the number and type of staff working nationally as well as the types of tests and facilities available in UK lung function and sleep departments.
The findings reported here are from the most recent survey, which was conducted electronically in February 2012, and brings this dataset up to date providing a revised snapshot of respiratory and sleep diagnostic service provision in the United Kingdom.

Smithfield, RI – In anticipation of the EPA's expected change to the Noise Reduction Rating (NRR), Howard Leight has issued a brochure that explains known details of the proposed changes for hearing protectors. Titled, "Inside the EPA's Proposed Change to the Noise Reduction Rating," the brochure is designed as a handy information resource for safety managers, providing background on the impending new rating system and the ANSI testing protocols on which it is expected to be based.
A chart provides a clear comparison of key elements of the current and proposed NRR regulations, and a sample product label shows how the new NRR scheme will be applied. An extensive Q&A provides additional background on the details of the anticipated regulation and its impact on occupational Hearing Conservation programs.
"As we all know, the current NRR lacks real-world perspective that comes with the individual use of earplugs and earmuffs," said Renee S. Bessette, Marketing Manager for Howard Leight. "This anticipated change to the NRR is expected to help to personalize Hearing Conservation programs for workers and improve its overall efficacy."
Since 1974, the EPA has used the NRR to measure hearing protector effectiveness. However, it has been criticized for being too generous in predicting the noise reduction (attenuation) of hearing protectors, since it is based upon idealized laboratory testing. Under the expected regulation, a new rating system will be used. While it will still be known as the NRR, and still be based on laboratory tests, it will now reflect a range of expected protection, instead of a single-number estimate. The lower number of the range will indicate how much attenuation minimally trained users can expect, while the higher number will indicate how much attenuation highly motivated, trained users can expect to achieve.
The brochure also provides perspective for Hearing Conservation program managers and other safety professionals on steps they can take now, including the use of HPD evaluation tools such as Howard Leight's VeriPRO™ fit testing system. Through simple listening tests, VeriPRO can determine the Personal Attenuation Rating (PAR) of an earplug's fit, and identify if employees are receiving optimal protection, require additional training on how to fit their earplug, or need to try a different model. Copies of the brochure are available through the company website at http://www.howardleight.com/bestpractices

In this week's round-up of our 'photo a day project', we visit the timeless World Heritage City of Bath and say goodbye to London in a flurry of fun and feathers!
Here's what we got up to this week!
Photo a day project: March 31st 2014. Sakura. With photos flooding in from our friends in Tokyo this week of the beautiful blooming cherry blossoms, we got our own taste of Spring here in the World Heritage Site of Bath.
Photo a day project: April 1st 2014. Crescent Weir. People have been worshipping the water in Bath for thousands of years. Whether promenading along the River Avon or 'taking the waters' from the natural hot springs, it's easy to see why so many have been drawn to this place.
Photo a day project: April 2nd 2014. Behind the clock. The Tower Tour at Bath Abbey is well worth the £6 and hour of your time. Explore the internal workings of the Abbey, admire the city from the tallest building in Bath and even have a go at chiming the Abbey bells!
Photo a day project: April 3rd 2014. Lewisham Micro Library. This old phone booth turned book haven is now apparently London's smallest library. But you won't be needing a library card here. Based on an honesty system, simply take one of interest and leave another behind for someone else to enjoy. Read our latest post on this innovative book exchange here.
Photo a day project: April 4th 2014. Change of scenery. There's always something new and fun happening in London. This pop-up art display at Borough Market grabbed the attention of passersby with its vibrant colours and interesting design. If you looked closely, there were even messages hand-written on the undersides of the paper. One pearl of wisdom said, "Don't be a ghost."
Photo a day project: April 5th 2014. Serious fun. It was all 'go hard or go home' at World Pillow Fight Day festivities in Trafalgar Square, London.
Photo a day project: April 6th 2014. Kiev International Airport. After 7 unforgettable weeks in the UK, we're on the road again. Next up: Turkey, a country that's been very high on our "must visit" list since we ever had one! For free with the cheap flight, getting to stay awake all night and a brief early morning transit in the Ukraine. These nomads are awaiting the Turkish coffee at the other end.

Com. Achuthanandan an undefiled well of pervert administrative jokes ,stirs the media machines with another comedy of offences just to establish the impression that he is the tainted wether of the flock meetest for political death. Tainted not in the sense it is applied upon the power and glory of the police officer in controversy. The allegation against the obscene specimen of a police officer is that of tainting or corrupting every leaf of grass beneath the sun --- though the unkind truth is that the police officer polished even the tooth and nail of music for the benefit of purse. In the green channel black traffic, the CIA dons make use of the services of the ministers and administrative officials but the NGO breed that fills inconvenience of boisterous idealism in the throat of com. Achuthanandan overpowers even the green channel police men and ministerial criminals in the expertise of smuggling funds for routine terrorist industry. Tainted wether means castrated male animal and once your ideological will is castrated by the politburo the loud impulses gushing out from the archaic revolutionary memory fall invalid and you confess that the mission impossible entrusted to the particular officer of police is an action justified by law. For the sole purpose of eating your own words why should you spit it upon your face and make an ugly show of the rectification campaign befitting to a duncedom? You have every right to be the shame less instance of nonsensical retreats from your belligerent utterances. But unfortunately you are the chief minister of a race that hesitates to stoop to the level of your imbecility. Whether you be an obscurantist philosopher or idiot you have no right to claim that you are quite ignorant of the cruel acts of administration commencing beneath the nose of your governance because you are the chief minister of the state and not a waste box installed upon the ministerial slot. So speak not this way that I know and do not know why a corrupt officer is kept under my ineffectual angelic wings and I am miserably ignorant how and why the tainted personnel was issued a secret passport to the domain of serious terrorist interrogation.
The officer did the disaster management in a commendable style putting his head deep into the labyrinth of interrogation. The criminal revelations yielded in the interrogation were communicated to Soophy and Mdani with immediate effect and Soophy was made enlightened in the subject so that she could address the situation by resorting to preventive measures such as anticipatory bail thanks to the journey of the commissioned officer towards the banks of Kauvery. The mission impossible is accomplished. This is the use of an officer loyal to the code and conduct of official secret.

Masters in Teaching and Learning: the journey continues
In the ever-evolving world of education, there are few new initiatives with as much potential to revolutionise teachers' professional development as the new Masters in Teaching and Learning (MTL). Here, Graham Holley, Chief Executive of the Training and Development Agency for Schools, explains.
We know that the quality of an education system cannot exceed the quality of its teachers and that, as the learning needs of pupils become more challenging and diverse, the demands on teachers' professional skills are increasing. The MTL is a Government-funded, classroom-based, professional qualification, aimed at helping teachers to extend and enrich their skills, knowledge and understanding.
The MTL builds on the most successful aspects of existing programmes of sustained, in-depth enquiry-based learning for teachers. But as a national qualification, it is a new and different kind of masters, allowing participants to build on their previous learning and development, taking what they are learning and applying it immediately in their own classroom – a model that borrows elements from highly successful masters in other fields, such as the MBA.
There has been a number of exciting developments in the introduction of the MTL. Perhaps most importantly, enrolment has now opened in the North West, meaning that eligible newly qualified teachers (NQTs) who started working in local schools this year are now able to enrol. Initially, during this introductory year, the MTL is only available to all eligible NQTs taking up posts in schools in the North West, National Challenge Schools and other priority schools in challenging circumstances and the TDA is urging those eligible to enrol early now. The North West region, which trains and recruits more NQTs than anywhere else in the country, will be leading the way with the MTL rollout and the vision of making teaching a masters-level profession across the whole of England.
The TDA have also recently announced the funding available for the MTL programmes, with over £30 million being available across the North West region. The TDA funding will cover the cost of the programme for the NQT and the school based costs of delivering MTL programmes.
Additionally the TDA has also announced that experienced teachers who sign up to coach teachers through the new MTL will benefit from their involvement, with fully-funded, tailored coach training and the opportunity, if they wish, to gain masters level accreditation themselves.
The fact that MTL students will have the support of both a fellow teacher acting as a school-based coach and a university based tutor is a key defining feature of the MTL. These colleagues have different responsibilities. The school-based coach's main role is to make sure that the participant's MTL work has a positive impact on their teaching and their pupils' learning in the classroom. The HEI tutor holds the lead responsibility for making sure that the participant's work genuinely represents learning at a masters level. They will need to work together - with each other and with the teacher undertaking the MTL - to challenge and develop the way teachers work and think.
The school-based coaches will be integral to the success of the MTL. Experienced teachers in a participating school, or one nearby, will be eligible to act as a coach: supporting MTL participants on a day-to-day basis; facilitating relevant learning opportunities with other teachers; and steering the participant to examine and challenge their learning.
The MTL is unique in its structure and approach and will position England at the very forefront of global educational development. The emphasis is on offering consistent and coherent professional development, broadening and enriching teachers' professional knowledge and their understanding of how children learn. We are currently working hard to engage schools in advance of the MTL going live later this year and early reports are encouraging. Headteachers we've talked to have been quick to recognise the educational benefits of such an opportunity for teachers in their schools, and are excited about the role MTL can have in recruitment and retention. At the same time, we are seeing a great deal of interest from NQTs, who are keen to study the course and value its benefits.
Nobody has yet actually started an MTL programme, of course, so heads and teachers understandably have some questions. We have been told, for example, that we need to be careful not to allow the MTL to bring about extra workload and stress, especially for newly qualified teachers. We understand the pressures, which is why we, in partnership with the schools and universities that make up the MTL providers, have specifically developed the programme to offer the structured support that teachers say they need in the early part of their career. It will be practice based and rooted in the work they are already doing. The support in place around the participant – their coach, their HEI tutor and indeed the school team of which they are already a part – will be there to make sure that day-to-day life is manageable.
This approach brings the potential for a wider impact. Continuing training and development is crucial to helping school staff to be the best they can be and providing the best education outcomes for our children and young people today. And as part of a developing ethos of shared and reflective learning, the impact of MTL will be felt way beyond the classroom - rippling outwards and benefiting the school community as a whole.
These unique ingredients, fused with the best aspects of professional development from the world's top performing education systems, will help to embed a culture of lifelong learning and peer support in schools, maximising the potential of both the teacher and pupil. The MTL seeks to help eligible teachers take control of developing their own teaching, on the job, at their own pace. In working together towards the vision of teaching as a masters level profession, we can all be a part of securing standing as a world leader in education while delivering the highest standards of teaching to students.

Bettering the place that we all love to retreat to
It doesn't matter if you are a very busy college student, day trader, or worker in the tech sector, one thing that is so commonly heard nationwide is that "I wish I would have spent the day in bed". Even during times where you aren't getting any actual sleep, bed is a great place to spend time in: the multiple pillows, warm blankets, and perhaps time spent in front of your favorite Netflix episodes sure can bring about a sense of comfort.
Check out our down comforters for hot sleepers post.
Since many folks always seem to be on a budget, and are constantly wondering how to trim costs, it is absolutely true that consumers will spend a bit more money if it guarantees them comfort. The bed in many ways is just like the house you own: the harder the day you have while you are slogging it out in the real world, you feel as if you are coming back to a place where you can wind down and rest peacefully.
The Promise of Lazy Weekends Dancing in your Head
A bit of rain or other wise dreary weather, holidays in the city if you are away from home, and a place to collapse after a double-shift are all reasons why people worldwide are wanting to make their bedrooms more comfortable than ever. If you have just gotten out of the hospital or suffered any other serious medical issue, you know that you will soon be spending lots of time in your bed, and will be desiring extreme comfort.
Many out there really are poised to enjoy their time in bed once a whirlwind of activity ceases around their house, such as children going on summer break, and enjoying fewer responsibilities. If you are enrolled in a graduate student or doctorate program, you may be running yourself ragged, and so we wanted to show you some benefits of using a down comforter.
Wondering about the warmth issue
Wouldn't you love to sleep with something on your bed that actually traps body heat? This is what down comforters do: inside the loft of the filling are materials that help with this very issue, and keep you comfortable instead of frigid during months like February.
One of the worst nights you can spend in bed is one where you are covered by some flimsy blanket that is possibly a decade old, and feels as if your feet are still outside in the snow. You'll love the warmth that a down comforter provides, and how cozy your nights will become after you begin using one.
I don't want to leave, It's so easy to Breathe..
Down is such a highly breathable element that it actually is able to deter moisture, perspiration, and other humid occupants straight away from your skin. It is not just people who are overweight, there are many who tend to get hot while they sleep, and the down comforter will score high points in this department.
It's hard to believe that something could keep you warmer AND get rid of moisture like this, but down comforters really do! Helping you maintain a more even body temperature throughout the night is also going to ultimately result in you getting a higher quality of rest.
The Lightweight Luxury
You will definitely be surprised at how easy it is to sleep under a comforter that keeps you so warm and dry, that doesn't add a ton of weight and bulk to your bed. It feels so much better to have a down comforter on top of you then it feels to add blankets to your bed one by one!
After using one for awhile, you will no doubt look forward to every night spent in bed with a down comforter, and feeling as you are just a number at a chain hotel will be a very distant notion. The reasons to make the switch and drive on over to the sunny valleys of down-comforter land are many, now you just need to glean some consumer reviews, and find the one that best suits your resilient place of rest.

Cloud building: EMC gets in the game
A Canadian newspaper publisher turned to EMC for cloud-building services that stretched far beyond the vendor's traditional storage offerings.
EMC Corp. wants to build your cloud, and not just your storage cloud. This week, the vendor officially launched a series of cloud-building services around infrastructure, cloud applications and end-user computing.
EMC's cloud infrastructure services include storage and converged stacks combining storage, compute and networking to help build private, public and hybrid clouds. Cloud-optimized application services help customers decide which apps they need for the cloud. End-user computing services help customers move to a desktop-as-a-service (DaaS) model using applications such as VMware View and mobile platforms.
But while EMC announced its cloud-building services this week, they've actually been offering them for years through a series of acquisitions and expansions of their consulting practices. Some of these services -- particularly around end-user computing -- are outside of EMC's usual enterprise focus and appear a better fit for VMware, which EMC owns a majority stake in.
Canadian publisher Postmedia Network Inc. engaged EMC services for two projects over the past two years. The newspaper chain built a private cloud to virtualize its data center and then revamped its storage and networking to support its InfoMart digital library of online content.
This new virtual private cloud architecture gives me the ability to add capacity when I need to add capacity. We can move workloads and sacrifice an internal server and push a physical server out to address an Internet performance constraint.
Mark Boucher, VP of Technical Services at Postmedia Network Inc.
Mark Boucher, Postmedia's VP of technical services, said the company needed to scale resources faster. Constraints of its old system came to light a few years ago when Drudge Report linked to a story from one if its newspapers and its servers couldn't handle the resulting spike in traffic. Boucher said the new architecture lets Postmedia shift resources from one if its intranet servers to an Internet site.
"Our focus was on solving a performance/capacity issue," Boucher said. "We're a very reactive business, and sometimes we don't have time to plan to scale. This new virtual private cloud architecture gives me the ability to add capacity when I need to add capacity. We can move workloads and sacrifice an internal server and push a physical server out to address an Internet performance constraint."
Boucher said Postmedia became heavily virtualized in its new architecture with more than 500 virtual machines. The company shares resources between its main onsite data center in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and a collocated disaster recovery site.
"Our biggest constraint was aging infrastructure," said Boucher. "Another constraint was that we couldn't expand our data center. We had to come up with a new model that could evolve us into a [VMware} vSphere private cloud architecture."
Boucher said the cloud setup helped last year when Postmedia lost power in its data center. The company recovered by using VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager (SRM) to move its server workload to its secondary data center while power was being restored. "I honestly didn't think I'd ever experience that," Boucher said.
When building InfoMart, Postmedia swapped out Hewlett-Packard storage and servers in favor of an EMC VNX5700 unified storage array, Cisco UCS B230 Blade Servers and vSphere. Those are the components of Vblocks sold by those vendor's VCE joint venture, but Boucher said none of the pre-configured Vblocks gave him the right storage capacity and server resources, so he put the pieces together with EMC consultants.
Since building a cloud, Boucher said his storage utilization improved performance 1,300%. But he didn't go to EMC just for storage. "This is the full-meal deal, we relied on them end-to-end," he said. "My approach for these technology projects is to bring the experts in and let them drive the project. At the end, they hand the keys over to us."
EMC's services announcement is a likely sign that the vendor expects cloud implementations, and the opportunity for cloud building, to pick up in 2012.
"We've been focused on building out services to enable EMC customers to more quickly build a vision around cloud and to build their roadmaps," said Nina Hargus, EMC's VP of global services marketing.
Hargus admitted end-user computing "is an area that we never made much noise in. But a few years back we acquired five application-focused integrators that joined EMC Consulting, and all had desktop practices." She said VMware doesn't focus on services, and EMC picks up a lot of its customers who need services around virtualization projects, such as Postmedia. "We have become VMware's partner of choice for Microsoft application virtualization and end-user computing services," she said. "But we are one of their partners, not the only one."

8 July - Transport in Bexley. Crowded, slower, safer
The Transport User's Sub-Committee ought to be an interesting meeting for
anyone interested in the borough's transport infrastructure but in practice
those with such a keen interest would learn very little from attendance.
Probably I go to too many council meetings but I think I already knew the answers to almost all the councillors' questions, even those for which no official answer was forthcoming.
Things are not helped by there being only one councillor on the committee (Stefano Borella, Labour, North End) with real enthusiasm for transport matters and the Vice-Chairman is councillor John Davey. The same John Davey who in 2009 was Vice-Chairman of the same committee which was happy to see several local roads wrecked and came up with the description 'Bonkers' for it, which in turn became the inspiration for this website.
The meeting is chaired by councillor Val Clark who isn't required to do a lot and does not a lot pretty well. I said Good Evening to her as I passed by on the way in but she kept her nose in the air as usual.
I had hoped to learn a little more about yesterday's Broadway six vehicle bus crash but I was disappointed. The police officer present said he believed a motorist had pulled out in front of a bus which braked hard and those behind him didn't. He was not a witness to the crash and later on confirmed that police numbers across the borough continue to reduce.
Having looked at the News Shopper's pictures I cannot see any way that the new road layout can be to blame for putting 16 people in hospital.
Last time I went to the Transport meeting no provision had been made for any public attendance. Things were much better this time and I wasn't even alone. A cyclist had been given permission to address the committee directly.
The South Eastern Railways man (Mike Gibson) was unable to attend but he had sent a written report. Unfortunately the chairman did not think it was necessary to circulate a copy to the public thereby turning what should have been a public meeting into something approaching a Cheryl Bacon style 'Closed Session'. I have since obtained a copy.
Mr. Gibson's report provided statistics showing small improvements to his company's performance and passenger numbers had gone up by 30% since 2006. No new trains had been provided in that period other than the high speed stock running from Kent to St. Pancras. This is a government decision.
The recent hot weather raised the question of air-conditioning which was not thought to be technically possible on a stopping service for 1980 era trains and whilst technology has moved on, retro fitting trains is commercially unviable given that South Eastern's contract ends in 2018. Taking trains out of service would not help the over crowding issues either.
Mr. Gibson's report included a list of timetable changes anticipated for August 2016 when Cannon Street services will cease calling at London Bridge. For those who might be interested the summary is available here.
Stefano Borella asked some Crossrail related questions but as he has attended the Liaison Committee meetings and councillor Melvin Seymour, the council's official representative there has missed two out of three of them, councillor Seymour was at a disadvantage and no answer was forthcoming. I should emphasise that councillor Seymour had very good reasons for being absent.
Councillor John Davey complained about the unreliability of the cooling equipment on the existing rolling stock thereby proving he had not read Mr. Gibson's report. The trains are not equipped with cooling equipment. Who elects these people?
Cabinet member Alex Sawyer revealed that he no longer used South Eastern trains preferring to drive to North Greenwich and use the Jubilee line and had no intention of using SE trains again. He said he would ask Mr. Gibson why there are no 12 car trains on the Bexleyheath line. Those who have been paying attention to the subject should have no difficulty in predicting the answer.
The chairman said she used the same route but generally took the 486 bus to North Greenwich.
Councillor Howard Marriner attempted to elicit more useful information by asking what progress had been made towards improving bus services to Darenth Valley Hospital. The chairman provided a lengthy answer which amounted to 'absolutely none'. Not even a preliminary meeting.
Stefano Borella asked why some Night Bus frequencies were to be reduced but he got no answer. The N1 to Abbey Wood will be every 30 minutes all week instead of 20 minutes on Friday and Saturday but it is not the only affected route.
The cyclist's most interesting question was about the amount of the TfL award to the borough following the failure to secure mini-Holland status. He got no answer. He also wanted to know who would be 'cycling champion' now that councillor Gareth Bacon has given up the role. It is councillor Alex Sawyer if he can be dragged from his car.
Only an hour or two before I left for the meeting, a neighbour unaware of my intention told me how he was almost forced up the kerb in Abbey Road not far from its junction with St. Augustine's Road. A bus had come around the bend at high speed on the wrong side of the road. I sympathised because buses on the wrong side of Abbey Road is not that unusual since it was unnecessarily narrowed. If my neighbour reads this blog he will I am sure be pleased to note that improving that junction is currently out for consultation. The proposal is for more narrowing.
Progressively bringing Bexley to a standstill is having its effect on accident statistics. A total standstill would presumably bring them down to zero and Bexley has been heading in that direction, so much so that it is now the 13th best borough in the country beaten only by rural backwaters with few roads and fewer cars. Almost every local authority area has been on an improving trend presumably reflecting research into safer vehicles. The Chairman said that "the Road Safety Team is absolutely brilliant".
Seriously injured casualties were down another 23% in 2014 although slight injuries were up by almost as much.
Councillor Davey briefly mentioned the traffic disruption that will result from the Bexley bridge replacement. Nothing was known about plans to mitigate it but the chairman said the delay resulted from TfL funding which is not what was said at the Places Scrutiny meeting.
TfL may be dragging its feet on bridge funding but not apparently on bus stops. Every one across London has been surveyed and in Bexley 140 or more of them are to be modified. Is it any wonder that taxes are so high?

On the Road with The Shacks
We caught up with the duo as they got a well-deserved break from touring to discuss new music and helpful inventions for on-the-road, as well as to exclusively premiere their brand new track "Audrey (Spending All My Time With You)" and debut a photo diary from their travels.
Where are you guys right now? I know you have a pretty intense touring schedule.
Shannon—We're in Princeton, New Jersey right now. We just got back a week ago from tour, and we're just relaxing right now.
Max—Relaxing and recording. I'm from Princeton, and I have a little studio here, so we spend a lot of time working on new tracks, day n' night.
New tracks separate from the new album?
That's good that you're so ahead.
M—Yeah, in a couple months, we'll probably have the next album done. Because stuff on the album that's gonna be coming out in March, some of that stuff is two or three years old. I guess that's just the way it goes.
You kind of have to catch up. Can you say anything about the new sound?
M—It's different than what the first LP is gonna sound like. We just started touring this past February, so basically all of the LP was recorded before that. So the new stuff we're working on now definitely sounds more stripped down and has more of the live experience we have now. Kind of like a 4-piece band vibe, as opposed to the new album which is more production-based.
Is there anything that caused that shift, or did it happen naturally?
S—I mean, I think we're just two years older, so we changed our style a little bit. It's still the same, but we just kind of evolved.
M—Yeah, and I really like bands who are constantly evolving and changing their sound moving forward and making a lot of material along the way. The album coming out this Spring really reflects the first couple years of us as a band, which is really cool. The track listing for that roughly shows the evolution from our earliest stuff to our newest stuff.
I interview a lot of artists, and if they have music coming out that was made a long time ago, a lot of them say that it's hard to listen to. Is that the same with you guys?
M—[Laughter] I don't know about you, Shannon, but we've definitely listened to the music so many times. Once the song is finished, after all that mixing and mastering, at least for me it can be hard to go back to and listen to your old stuff. In general, it can be hard to listen to your own stuff. I had to listen through the whole album the other day to approve the vinyl test pressing, and I was definitely really happy with it. If I'm in the right mindset, I can definitely appreciate it and dig it. I think like any other artist, it can definitely be hard.
It definitely sounds fresh, so no need to worry.
M—Thank you!
Would you say you guys are more comfortable on the road? What's it like constantly traveling and being displaced into new cities?
S—It's pretty cool. I mean, it's hard work because you're traveling a lot and living out of a suitcase for two months, which can get a little hard, but it's really cool to travel and see all these places and play shows there. Personally, I'm still working on my live—what's the word—persona? I think I'm more comfortable just recording, but I think also just playing shows every night, you automatically keep getting better.
How do you stay creative while on the road?
M—That's a hard one. The road's "creativity" part is keeping the show fresh and staying inspired playing the same songs every night. So what we've been doing is mixing up our set a lot. I know a lot of other bands find a nice groove and kind of play the same thing every night. So we try to mix up the setlist, but also mix up our interpretation of the songs and try to have a pretty big degree of variation and room for interpretation. We can play one song really fast and funky one night, and then the next night it might be super chill. We try to take it where it kind of wants to go instead of sounding the same every night.
In the car, Shannon has been writing a lot of melodies and lyrics to tracks we've been working on at home, but I know for a lot of artists it can be hard to write on the road since you're getting up and moving every five seconds. That part is definitely a challenge, although we have written a lot of things on the road.
S—And we have a friend who moved out of the city to LA, and he has a studio there now. We were there for four days because we had two shows, so in between, we got to hang out in his studio and record some new rhythm tracks, which was fun and felt like we were just hanging out.
M—His name is Tom Brenneck, who is Charles Bradley's producer and also played guitar with Amy Winehouse and all that stuff. He just took over, with Mark Ronson, this old studio in Hollywood called The Sound Factory. So that was awesome because, on the road, I was trying to book studio time but we were never in one place long enough. Our real passion is in the studio. That's where our home is.
Are there any unexpected innovations that help you on the road? I know some touring musicians take mobile studios with them.
M—In LA, we were going all over Craigslist and stuff, because we got an AirBnb, and I bought a really cool mic. We were trying to find a 4-track cassette machine, which is really easy to set up and record on, but we couldn't find anything on Craigslist. If we're putting a song together, GarageBand on the iPhone is really good. We use that a lot to make demos.
Any non-music related inventions?
M—Argan oil. Great hair product.
S—The Radiooooo app. It's this app where you can select a country and decade, and it will pick a random song from that time and place, which is really cool because we find a lot of new songs that are awesome.
I love the video for "Left It With The Moon." It's very idiosyncratic and beautiful. Being fairly young, would you say that your visuals and aesthetic come naturally, or is it something that has developed over time?
S—I think it comes naturally. Like, that's just kind of what we like—polaroids and old vintage photos and stuff. We never specifically sat down like, "This is going to be our image," or anything. It's just who we are.
M—We kind of take the philosophy of using whatever you have to do what you want to do artistically. For the "Left It With The Moon" video, we shot that on an iPad because we decided we wanted to make a video. And all we had was an iPad and some flashlights. So we had to accept that those were the tools we were working with, although some people may see that as amateur or whatever. If you use a unique medium, though, you can get unique or interesting results with any kind of music.
It's interesting. Nowadays, I feel like even bigger artists are going towards more "amateur" mediums for videos like VHS.
M—Totally. You can do anything with CGI and editing that it's kind of like, what's the point? I think there's a value in just capturing what's actually there in your life and not trying to make something with technology. When we record, we record basically all analog to tape. It does go into the computer at certain points just so that we can bring it into the studio and mix it, but we try to be minimalistic in the way we use the computer. Even if there's a timing thing messed up in the song, when we put it on the computer, we could go in and fix it, but if it's a "good mistake" that feels natural with the song, we're not going to do that. I think we apply that philosophy to the visual part of things, too. And also, we just like analog media like film and tape.
What can you tell me about "Audrey"?
S—It's a new version of an old song. On our EP, there's a song called "Audrey Hepburn" which is the same song, but when we were playing it live, we would play it differently and more upbeat and jazzy. So we just decided to record a new version that way. It's pretty different from the old one, but I really like it.
M—This single is coming out on 45, and for me, it's the thing I'm most excited about that we've released so far. We have so much music that's unreleased and, like I said, on a lag, but we recorded this whole track in Princeton. It's the first single where I'm the producer on the A-side, so I'm really proud of that. And this really reflects our sound currently as a band because we recorded it only a month or two ago after Danny from our record label told us he liked the live version and suggested we record it. I thought that was a really good idea. It's got 12-string guitar and a lot of acoustic bells and stuff. It reflects where we are now as a band, as well as the environment where we were working in New Jersey—a lot of nature and birds and stuff, some crickets in the background. More soulful, funky, and organic.
Purchase "Audrey" here. The Shacks will be playing December 15 and 16 at Brooklyn Bowl.

We enjoyed our trip to Al Ain, where we enjoyed a desert trip and saw lots of camels. HolidayMe arranged all the the details perfectly, and we had a blast. It is a very beautiful city, and there are lots of food options. I lovedd shopping there too.
Hello. I am Pritam Grover. I took a package from HolidayMe to Ajman. An di want to write that everything was very good. My family and I enjoyed much. The hotels were all good quality and it made me feel good to see my parents very happy. There discounts are also pretty good, so I would always recommend them always.
What could be better than a trip to Sharjah sponsored by the office. They took a package form HolidayMe to send us to this company offsite coupled with a small break for the employees and it has been an immensely successful venture till now. Lovely hotel and all required facilities available here. Very well done and well planned by our company.
Superb place. Sharjah is jst as beautiful as it hot it would be. I am here on a vacation to meet up with some friends, and from here we would be touring other places. We took a package from HolidayMe and we gotta admit that we got it for dirt cheap. Amazing hotels, and just as amazing service. Only issue was that every time we left our room to go outside we would come back to find that our pass key had been changed, and they said it was a system fault. Really strange. But nevertheless, it was quite enjoyable.
We had so much fun on our UAE trip. My favorite was Ras Al Khaimah, where the beaches are less crowded. The greenery was a bonus. I wasn't too keen on visitngRas Al Khaimah, but people from HolidayMe insisted that it is a very nice place. I and glad we went there too. Dubai was also nice. And all the hotels were good quality.
Have wanted to visit Fujairah for a long time now, and HolidayMe made it possible. They planned an economical trip for us to Fujairah, and we got good hotels for cheap so it was a good trip. the food was good, but choice was limited. Street food was good in the main market, but a little on the expensive side.
A good first time experience with HolidayMe. They arranged a nearly perfect trip for us, and since we have never been out of India it was a bit cumbersome for us but they helped with all the issues related to the visa and the flights and the lay overs. The package was quite expensive but in the end it was well worth it, since we got tremendous service and support from these guys. Cannot imagine ever booking any trip again without their help or from some other company. Fujairah is beautiful, although a little expensive but totally worth the money.
This used to be a small fishing village or so, but look at it now. Superb trip arranged by HolidayMe, and it was very cheap too and included the flights as well so it was a win win situation for us. Had a great time, and enjoyed to the hilt. Burj Al Arab was so amazing although we didn't go to the top…
What an amazing trip to Dubai I had. We went with a couple of friends and had a ball there. We also went skydiving, and went to the top of Burj Dubai and it was a tremendous experience, thanks to HolidayMe.
We loved every minute of the time we spent in Dubai. What an exhilarating place, and so much to do. We wanted to go skydiving, but sadly our package from HolidayMe did not cover it, and it was very expensive for us, and we had not planned for it so didn't have the extra money. But the trip itself was an amazing one, and the food has to be mentioned thousands of times because it was just so amazing. All the kebabs and the biryanis were out of this world. the hotel was also good, although it did get a little loud in the nightclub.
UAE oozes an effervescent charm blending a mix of contemporary architecture, world class hospitality, rich entertainment, state-of-art indoor activities, luxury shopping avenues along with timeless experiences like desert safaris, night camping and dhow boat cruises in the Persian Gulf. Located at a key juncture inthe Middle East,UAE hassuccessfully carved a reputation of being a moderate and progressive nation. Despite being part of a tumultuous region facing political and social upheaval, UAE has managed to maintain its reputation, thanks to the foresightedness of its rulers and its overall policies. Today, the country is famous for beingthe land of superlative adjectives (richest, biggest, tallest, and largest, among others); while there is no shortage of artificial wonders which leaves tourists awestruck.
Established as a federation of seven Emirates after its independence from United Kingdom in 1971, UAE has made rapid strides in several aspects owing to its massive natural oil resources(seventh largest oil reserves in the world). Ajman, Dubai, Fujairah, Sharjah, Ras Al-Khaimah and Umm Al-Quwainled by the capital Abu Dhabi make up the United Arab Emirates.
Abu Dhabi has steadily emerged as a top destination on the back of its variedculture, top-notch entertainment, classy architecture, and stunning cuisine and has gleefully accepted the burden of flying the flag of age-old Emirati tradition. Dubai on the other hand, is driven by the search of world class hospitality, experiences and contemporary innovation in construction, entertainment and every other aspect. Dubai has a more progressive outlook and is the main hub of expats, enhancing its reputationas a global city.
Sharjah is still emerging from the shadows of Dubai while Ajman and Umm Al Quwain are slowly developing. Ras Al Khaimah is aggressively following the example of Dubai and is working hard to create tourism infrastructure while Fujairah has become a more popular domestic tourism hub owing to its stunning natural landscape dominated by the scenic Hajar Mountains, hidden palm oases and beautiful clear waters and unspoilt beaches in neighbouring Oman.
Islam is the official religion and Arabic continues to be the official language. Persian, Urdu and Hindi are also spoken by the thriving South Asian communities. Diversification in service industry and ancillary services has resulted in the large number of expats, especially from European nations and United States of America. The thriving business of expats and global brands from all over the world has ushered in a new wave of economic growth and is providing the country a more pluralist and cosmopolitan outlook.
