Head coach Danny Sanchez and his University of Colorado soccer players always remained confident the level of talent on the roster didn't match their last-place finish in the Pac-12 Conference last year.
The Buffaloes vowed 2016 would be different. But going from worst to first in one of the toughest leagues in the nation? No one had that pegged on the bulletin board as a realistic goal this fall.
Yet with three games remaining in the regular season CU is well-positioned to win its first conference crown in 13 years, and the remarkable manner in which the Buffs have won a number of their matches during a run of 11 wins in 12 games has the club believing this is a season of destiny.
The No. 22-ranked Buffs will begin attempting to put the final touches on their remarkable turnaround on Thursday with a home date against No. 9 UCLA at Prentup Field (3 p.m., Pac-12 Networks).
"I think everybody hopes for this, but looking back at last year and the reality of it, it didn't seem like it could happen," senior Mikaela Kraus said. "But I think this team, we just have a lot of confidence and we work really well together. We built on each other, so each game we keep getting more and more confident.
"I think this team is very special and we all realize that. Really it comes from us working hard, day in, day out."
In five previous seasons in the Pac-12 the Buffs finished in the top half just twice, placing sixth in 2013 and third in 2014. CU was outscored 22-9 while going 1-8-2 in the Pac-12 last year, combining a tie for the most goals allowed in the league with the conference's next-to-last scoring total.
With three games still to play, the Buffs already have scored nine more goals than during all of 2015. Owning 21 points and sitting in a three-way tie atop the conference with Stanford and USC, the Buffs are seeking the program's first league title since winning the Big 12 Conference championship in 2003.
"Last year…I think we were better than our record. And as I've said, I don't think there is a big difference among the teams," Sanchez said. "Obviously we're pleased with where we're at. We go into every weekend feeling we can win. Same as last year. It wasn't any different. The difference this year is we're getting the results and we're getting good performances."
Of course, one critical difference this season has been the addition of freshman midfielder Taylor Kornieck. Her 11 goals is the third-best single-season total in CU history and the most by a Buffs player since current volunteer assistant coach Nikki Marshall set the team record with 17 as a freshman in 2006.
Kornieck also is the author of two of the most improbable winning goals in the program's recent history, netting a winner in the waning seconds at Washington State on Sept. 23 before taking it up a notch earlier this week at Cal, heading home a free kick from Stephanie Zuniga to turn an all-but certain draw into a win with two seconds remaining in the second overtime.
"I think that just goes to how much trust we have in each other, and the amount of heart everybody showed in that (Cal) game," senior forward Danica Evans said. "It just shows that we're all willing to fight for each other until the end."
The Buffs continue the homestand against No. 4 USC at noon Sunday before completing the regular season at home against Utah Nov. 4.

Sir Alex Ferguson: Manchester United players praise manager
- From the section Football
Manchester United's players paid tribute to manager Sir Alex Ferguson after his final game at Old Trafford.
Goals from Javier Hernandez and Rio Ferdinand ensured United won 2-1 despite a Michu strike for Swansea.
Club captain Nemanja Vidic said: "I think it is a special day, in one way we are happy to get the trophy but in another we are sad the manager is not here another year."
Ferdinand added: "It is phenomenal what he has achieved."
He continued: "It speaks volumes about the type of man he is, and his desire to win, that he leaving the club behind in a healthy state."
Midfielder Michael Carrick admitted it was a strange day following Ferguson's announcement on Wednesday that he would retire at the end of the season.
"It's been an emotional day for everyone. It was a strange feeling and it's been like that all week. It was a special, special day," he said.
"Even in the changing room he tried to keep it as normal as possible but in the back of your mind you were thinking this is the last one. With the reception he got, it was amazing."
Robin van Persie joined Manchester United in August and said Ferguson was one of the main reasons he chose to move to Old Trafford.
The Dutchman added: "It's an unbelievable day but a sad one as well. I had the honour to work with him for one year and it's been an unbelievable year.
"He's made such an impact on me. He may be the greatest manager ever and he's such a nice person.
"Before the game, he couldn't see anything about him retiring. All week he's been focused on what to do and what to expect.
"It's a massive honour for me to say I've worked with him for a year."
Ryan Giggs has played a part in every one of Ferguson's 13 Premier League title-winning seasons and he revealed how the manager's will to win was as strong as ever for the Swansea game.
"Sir Alex just said play the game and not the occasion," Giggs said. "He wanted to win the game, wanted it to be an entertaining game, and for us to do the things he has wanted us to as a manager.
"The memories of him that stick out are when I was younger - when I was 13 playing for Salford Boys and looking to the sidelines and there was Sir Alex Ferguson watching."
Jonny Evans, who has come through the youth system at the club, praised Ferguson's impact on his development as a player.
"He's had a big effect on my career," he said. "It's hard to put into words. We probably won't notice it until a few years down the line when he's not here anymore.
"I think he's always had the ability to get the most out of his squad, with rotating the team and motivating players."
Ferguson signed Evans's fellow centre-half Vidic in 2006 from Spartak Moscow and the Serbian defender admits it will take some adjusting to get used to a different manager with David Moyes set to take charge.
He added: "It will be strange not to see him in the dressing room.
"This is a big club and will always be a big club but it is sad after so many years, without him is going to be sad."

The Māori All Blacks will have a fresh look when they take to the field to battle the British and Irish Lions in Rotorua.
Adidas has released a special edition Māori All Blacks jersey just in time for their game on 17 June.
The new jersey incorporates traditional Māori koru patterns and a four-eyed head of a taiaha, or traditional weapon.
New Zealand Rugby kaumātua Luke Crawford helped design the jersey and said it was fit for a warrior.
"With four eyes looking in all directions, the taiaha offers spiritual protection to the players, providing a watchful eye over the wearer at all times," he said.
Renowned Māori artist Dave Burke said every aspect of the design has been carefully thought through.
"It connects the wearer to the spiritual realm, reminding them that they are not walking alone."
Māori All Blacks coach Colin Cooper said honouring Māori culture was of high importance to the team.
"We are looking forward to bringing this whānau together over the week to prepare and present ourselves proudly."
Mr Crawford said the Māori All Blacks team would wear the new jersey with pride.

About one-quarter (26 per cent) anticipate changing the weighting of performance measures in annual incentive plans and 24 per cent plan to change the measures used in performance-based long-term incentive plans. The top drivers for making changes to both annual incentive programs and long-term incentive programs are to align with industry or peer group practices, align with best practices and reward or retain top talent, found Mercer's Executive Compensation and Talent Management 2012 Survey."As a result of the ongoing global economic uncertainty, companies are still being cautious about making significant changes to their executive compensation programs," said Audrey O'Connell, principal in Mercer's talent, rewards and communication business. "However, the changes being considered clearly recognize the importance of maintaining best practices and differentiating pay to retain top talent."Long-term incentive grantsAs companies adjust to the new normal of unpredictable market volatility, they are staying the course with respect to long-term incentive grants, said Mercer. Of the 74 per cent of companies that had some clarity on what 2012 long-term incentive grant levels might be, 70 per cent anticipate grant values in 2012 will be equivalent to 2011 grant values.Additionally, of the nearly two-thirds (63 per cent) of companies that reported on 2012 run rate expectations, 60 per cent anticipate 2012 run rates will be about the same as 2011.RELATED ARTICLESB.C. funds measures to help forestry workers hurt by downturnFederal response to 'gig' workers hindered by unreliable data: governmentGains in part-time, youth employment in August as wage growth slowsThe mix of long-term incentive awards is not anticipated to change significantly, found the survey. The most notable change, reflecting a continuing trend, is an increase in the weighting of performance share units for executives (10 per cent of companies plan to increase the weighting). Although few companies are considering changes to long-term incentive compensation programs, the most prevalent changes include the differentiation of grant sizes based on individual performance (29 per cent of companies are planning this change for executives in 2012 and 25 per cent for non-executives) and, for performance-based long-term incentives, increasing the weighting of absolute performance measures (12 per cent of organizations)."Companies are clearly stabilizing their short-term and long-term plans to focus their executives on achieving sustained and steady performance, said O'Connell.Primary drivers for changes to annual incentive plans:Align with industry, peer group practices50%Align with best practices45%Reward, retain top talent41%Differentiate awards based on individual performance29%Prepare for uncertain business outlook in 201218%Source: Mercer© Copyright Canadian HR Reporter, HAB Press.

Over the course of 2018 and 2019, 375,386 people called on the European Commission to defend Europe's strong water law, making the EU's public consultation on the legislation one of the largest ever in the history of the European Union. This law is critical to ensure that Europe's rivers, lakes and wetlands are protected and brought back to good health.
The NGO-led #ProtectWater campaign inspired citizens across Europe and beyond to take a stand for Europe's rivers, lakes and wetlands, and the strong law which protects them, the EU Water Framework Directive, during the European Commission's ongoing fitness-check.
The public consultation is now closed . Many, many thanks to everyone who felt inspired to act through the #ProtectWater campaign - together, we have told the EU and its Member States loud and clear that this law is strong and fit for purpose!
We will be there every step of the way to ensure that the Water Framework Directive remains intact, and will continue to push for it to be fully implemented by Member States and enforced by the European Commission so that the vast majority of Europe's waters are returned to good health by 2027 (at the absolute latest).
According to the latest data, 60% of Europe's rivers, streams, lakes and wetlands are not healthy. For generations we have destroyed and polluted them, and used too much water irresponsibly.
If we continue in this way, it will affect everything - from all the small things in our day-to-day lives we take for granted, to keeping entire industries going. It will also affect all the countless species that need these ecosystems to survive. The EU water law protects our water sources, but governments now want to weaken it.
Everyone has a part to play, but our governments are allowing rivers, lakes and wetlands to be exploited in ways that cause permanent harm. For example, dams and other infrastructure (e.g. for hydropower, flood defence and navigation) sever a river's natural flow and stop species from reproducing. Unsustainable agriculture pollutes and uses lots of water.
Through the EU water law, governments agreed to end this destruction - but, they have failed to live up to their promises. And, to make matters worse, they now want weaken the law!
Turning back the clock on this deterioration cannot be done without strong legislation. In Europe, we have a strong law that protects our rivers, lakes, wetlands, streams, coastal waters and groundwater – the EU Water Framework Directive. It also ensures that waters which have already been damaged are brought back to life, and by 2027 at the latest.
But, as you read this, many governments are trying to weaken the law. This would be a terrible blow for our rivers, lakes and wetlands, and everything that depends on them.
Europe is blessed with some of the world's most stunning rivers, lakes and wetlands - from Soča, the so-called 'Emerald Queen of the Alps', to the jaw-dropping beauty of Doñana, one of Europe's most important wetlands.
But these incredible ecosystems are under attack.
They can't speak up. Will you?
Europe's rivers and lakes are under attack. They can't stand up for themselves - but these children will. Their eyes are on governments as they consider whether to #ProtectWater in 2019, or carry on dodging their legal commitments.
What about you?
A lot of things go into making your favourite beer, but it all starts good quality water.
Rivers, lakes, wetlands, streams and groundwater are all protected under EU law. This law makes sure that Member States protect their waters, and restore those which have already been damaged. 2027 is their final deadline.
As you read this, many Member States are trying to weaken the law. Together, we MUST stop this. Let's keep our EU water law strong and make sure DRY BEER, DIRT BEER and LUXURY BEER stay figments of our imagination!

"There are traditional markets in our reserve, such as Russia and China, where our alcohol products are in great demand," he noted. "We are trying to increase exports to these countries. Earlier we planned to start exports to Mongolia this year, but due to a number of reasons this question remains open. There is an interest in Azerbaijani alcoholic drinks in the Mongolian market, but there are also certain problems with logistics. We are looking for optimal variants for entering the Mongolian market, and we believe that in the mid-term we will be able to export our products to that country as well."

Homework: Is It So Bad?/
I am one of those people who always loved school. At age seven, I woke up with a fever and begged to go to school even as I could barely stand. I was on the rare end of the spectrum of being independently disciplined with my homework routine afterschool as a latchkey kid. I took a break with a snack and Hawaii Five-0, and then I worked until my parents got home. I loved learning. I loved the feeling of accomplishment when completing an assignment. I know I am not normal, and my personal experience should not be applied generally, even to my own children.
I have seen the recent articles and passionately stated opinions about not having homework expectations for kids. It seems there is quite a range of homework expectations out there – from an unnecessarily long list of tasks for a kindergartener to accomplish each night, to nothing for older elementary school-age kids. I have read the headlines about understanding child development in the context of what is really important to learn socially and emotionally in early years, which should take second place to academics.
My biggest hope for my own children when it comes to education is that they experience a love of learning and a sense of community, which shapes them socially, emotionally, and intellectually. But is homework so bad? I worry when my kids can skate through our evening routine carefree that they are not learning other important lessons about work ethic, responsibility, and doing something challenging when we don't want to. I fast forward to their future careers and worry that they will be underperforming and lazy rather than passionate and committed, doing tasks they don't like in service of a larger vision.
So I did what many of us do when we have a burning question about the zeitgeist in parenting: I asked one of my Facebook parenting groups.
This brilliant group – with many educators – steered me to the top researchers on this issue. The teachers in the group were especially passionate that in elementary school, homework causes more problems than good. They shared both anecdotes and their understanding of the research.
What I learned kind of rocked my world view, and I can be pretty loyal to my own opinion sometimes (aka stubborn). The most humbling was the consensus that the main reason elementary teachers give homework is because parents want them to, despite it being counter to what science tells us about effectiveness of homework at these ages. What kind of "Art and Science Mom" am I if I don't pay attention to the science, but stubbornly insist my kids should do homework because I did homework and it was good for me?
So I went to the science – specifically, John Hattie, educational researcher known for his meta-analysis of meta-analyses (that means a study of all the results compiled by studies of multiple studies), which showed that homework had no effect on grades. How is it possible that homework had ZERO effect on grades?
Thankfully, someone else with a better grasp of statistics wrote a critique of this landmark Hattie conclusion, which echoed my own concerns about taking a research finding too much to heart. Although the meta-analysis can give us a compilation of multiple studies, which is obviously helpful, the nature of it includes inherent flaws.
First, only studies with statistically significant findings are published; there are many studies that may have valuable information to add to the big picture, but because they are not published, their findings are not included. Sometimes, a non-significant finding can be just as important, but this is a longstanding problem in academia.
Perhaps more importantly, though, when a large amount of statistical findings are lumped together, key differences can be lost, especially in soundbite headlines. For example, there was a big difference between younger kids and older kids, with older kids showing that homework did make a statistically strong difference. And a meta-analysis is not precise, losing potentially important details to how we use findings in real life (for example, homework may help learning in certain subjects). The author of the critique argues that homework is too nuanced a topic to boil down to the big conclusion that it doesn't help learning.
Just to confuse us, teacher and neuroscientist, Helen Silvester, points to a meta-analysis that shows homework DOES significantly relate to positive academic achievement. (Say what? Do we have a contradiction in research?) She goes on.
Silvester refers to Hattie's work, citing the difference between primary and secondary students, and his recommendation that giving separate/new assignments to primary students is not as helpful as assignments that reinforce what they have already learned. From a brain development perspective, she argues that short-term memory is operating in the classroom when kids are learning material for the first time. A worthy goal of homework is to solidify this material in long-term memory through repetition and practice outside of the classroom.
Silvester also offers a nice list of "general rules" to help make homework successful. Which is where I lose her, because this is where parenting reality runs head-on into an expert's theory.
For example, Get parents involved, without the homework being a point of conflict with students. Make it a sharing of information, rather than a battle. Well, that sounds just lovely. I will tell my child we are "sharing information" and I'm sure her enthusiasm will pick right up! And, Check the homework with the students afterwards. This offers a chance to review the key concepts and allow the working memory to become part of the long-term memory. Again, that sounds fantastic. After 20 minutes of white-knuckling through math problems on the verge of both of us melting down in frustration, let's look at all the problems AGAIN!
So, homework may not help all of our kids academically as much as we assume, but it may not be as universally useless as some may argue. What about the arguments on how else it affects kids? Anecdotally, it is pretty clear that homework time can turn into power struggle time, and an eruption of emotion and conflict that leaves us questioning if it's worth it. One study found that more than two hours of homework a night for high schoolers can have negative effects physically, socially, and emotionally. Come to think of it, I was pretty stressed and anxious as a teenager . . . and I definitely did more than two hours of homework a night.
Digging into this homework issue shows us again the limitations of looking to science and research to truly respond to our concerns. In all this evidence about the positive and negative effects of homework, nowhere did I find out whether or not my children with little homework will end up jobless in my basement with no sense of responsibility or work ethic. Where's the study on that?
This is where I rely on my mega talented parent group. These teacher-parent superheroes assured me that there are so many other ways to instill responsibility in our children. As soon as they pointed that out, I felt like I had been missing the obvious forest for my tiger mom trees. Duh. Household chores. Community service activities. Earning allowance.
Researching this topic actually changed me, and my parenting. I had fallen into the homework trap with my second grader, a portion of our short evening together devolving into tears and pencils flying through the air. My worries about her future work ethic pushing me to push her, even if I tried to do so with compassion and encouragement. It was still pressure that she communicated in no uncertain terms was too much for her.
We recently went to her parent-teacher conference. The teacher spent forty minutes showing us the stacks of work she has done the last few weeks. We heard about how she would write for hours if she could, needing reminders to stop for lunch. It hit me hard: she had an amazing work ethic at school, and she was TIRED by the time she got home.
The science may not have shown me as clear a conclusion as I wanted, but it absolutely challenged my personal beliefs. In doing so, I have felt a burden lifted. Now, I check in with my industrious elementary student about the status of homework, but no longer do I push her. She's in second grade – it's not like not doing one math packet a week will ruin her college applications. But maybe this has been another good warm-up lap to challenge my overachiever tendencies before it does matter for college.
Again people, this parenting gig is a marathon, not a sprint. As we pace ourselves, we can also change and grow and correct well-meaning mistakes. In this case, my "instinct" may have actually been my own demons of perfectionism and overachievement speaking to me. When I took a step back to look at the science, it helped uncover my maternal instinct to nurture my child's love of school in a different way than I expected.

Nowadays, were faced with a wide variety of floors options on the market and do not be surprised if you get just a little confused. If you\\\\\\\'re designing a new home or just planning to renovate you need to know the professionals and cons of various flooring types. wire brushed hardwood flooring
Before making any decision, you should think about few factors such as your budget, floor resilience, the issue of installation and exactly how much time and work you are ready to spend on cleaning and maintenance. Keep in mind that one type might be easy to install, but is hard to completely clean. Another might be durable but is more costly.
One of the primary benefits associated with tiled floors is the simple maintenance. Tiles have been used for centuries to provide a durable coated surface that is hygienic and easy to completely clean. Not needing any special cleaning alternatives, tiles are easiest to clean than most floor options.
Choosing ceramic or porcelain tiles, no matter – they can be very easily serviced if damaged. Always keep an additional container of tiles for future fixes because often there are variations between two batches. You can choose from a variety of colors and designs, for indoors and outdoors. Timber look tiles especially are extremely popular as an outdoor floor option. Tiles also provide advantage of being waterproof, so if you have a dishwasher or washing machine leak, they can be easily cleansed without harm. Not everyone prefers this kind of flooring, because of their harsh mother nature. They are considered as not suited to an appropriate living.
Timber flooring options come in two types. Hardwood flooring is built as an individual little bit of timber and the designed wood includes four to five layers of timber fused jointly.
Hardwood floor surfaces can be sanded and refinished often over their lifetime. From one side, they are really durable and intensely easy to clean, from another area. Stable Tongue is one of the very most expensive flooring timber options. If you\\\\\\\'re buying luxurious feel – invest in this kind of flooring and you\\\\\\\'ll not repent it. Engineered hardwood offers all the benefits of natural timber floor without the need for sanding and polishing. They could be ideal for below grade assembly as it is a lot more repellent to the effects of water than Hardwood. Extremely fast installation is one of the primary factors that have an effect on your choice for purchasing this type of flooring.
Ever more popular, bamboo flooring is an eco-friendly floor option that is extra durable and easy to set up and clean. This sort of flooring is favourite among allergy and asthma suffers because of its resistance to dirt and mould. It\\\\\\\'s regarded as highly green option for modern homes and can be found in many textures and colors. These floors are really easy to dent and damage and bamboo colouration is sensitive to sunlight and could fade over time.

From acclaimed fashion model to actor, designer to businesswoman, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley has done it all. The multi-hyphenate mogul's latest venture, Rose Inc., offers an insider peek at some of Rosie's favorite beauty products, makeup tutorials, skincare tips, and interviews with some of your favorite beauty gurus. Rosie takes a hands-on approach to her site, with a "Memo From Rosie" section dedicated to personal notes from the founder herself.
In addition to everything she's working on for Rose Inc., Rosie will be our keynote speaker at Create & Cultivate New York! Check out her interview below, then join us in the city to get all the advice she's learned from launching her namesake brand.
You've become a household name after years of putting in hard work as a model, and some acting work. What prompted you to venture off into beauty?
Beauty has always been a passion of mine and a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember, starting as a passion and ending up in a career. Growing up I would sit and watch my mother in awe while she would get ready for work or a night out. I loved seeing how she could transform into this striking, confident woman. It was then that I began to understand the way makeup could alter a person's demeanor or mood. As a teenager, I always enjoyed experimenting with makeup and trying out the newest products.
Over the last 16 years as a model, I've spent countless hours in the hair and makeup chair learning from all the incredible artists I've been lucky enough to work with. Every time I'm in the chair I find I learn something new and creative and have made special friendships and memories along the way.
Rose Inc. for me is a place where I could bring my passion to light and hopefully create an inspiring online destination where I can highlight my favorite artists, peek inside the bathrooms of some of our favorite influencers, tastemakers and professionals, and where we could explore, interview and discuss new products, tips and tricks with the top experts in the industry.
What was the inspiration behind Rose Inc. & its aesthetic?
In looking at the landscape of beauty websites, I thought it was important to create a space that was curated by someone who has been in the industry, sat in the makeup chair, and had firsthand experience of the impact that these products and routines can have on your life both physically and emotionally.
We have features and stories that cater to every type of woman, whether you want to know more about your favorite beauty icon or you're in search of some serious advice for your next must-have product. We want to reach women all around the world and hear what they have to say about the beauty space.
The brand launched in May and is taking off swiftly. How did you build that bond with your audience?
I think with any brand it's all about authenticity and honesty. I hope that it's clear when people come to the site or spend time with me that they can see I have a true affinity for everything beauty related. Building a bond with your audience is an ongoing process, it's a two way street. We love to hear what our readers have to say, what they want to read or watch and then we try to deliver what it is they are asking for.
What characteristics make you successful in the beauty industry?
Passion, drive, and a clear vision. When you embody those characteristics everything else will fall into place.
What does it take to build a beauty brand from the ground up in today's world?
When I look at what's happening in the beauty industry right now and see what's working and what's not, I see that it's about having a clear point of view for your brand and believing in something bigger than the product itself. Creating a sense of authenticity and dialogue with your consumer while exploring innovative and exciting products that make people feel their very best selves.
What about your job makes you feel the most fulfilled?
I love meeting new people who inspire me both creatively and mentally, as this has been an ongoing learning process for me. Seeing each of our initiatives through to completion, and hearing positive feedback from our readers, makes this all incredibly worthwhile and gives me an immense sense of pride!
What's the best piece of career advice you've ever been given?
I feel lucky I get to talk to so many brilliant people across this industry. I think the best thing I have heard lately was about the importance of delivering something that is unique and infused with your own personal style.
What's been the biggest surprise or highlight of your career to date?
Without a doubt, launching Rose Inc. It certainly feels like a new chapter in my life and while it feels like an organic next step for me because it's my passion, becoming a founder is quite the departure from modelling, I do feel some days that I'm learning a lot on the go!
Where does your passion/drive come from?
This is a question I don't know if I'll ever be able to articulate properly because a passion for this industry is something that has been a part of me for as long as I can remember. An appreciation for and fascination with all things beauty related is something that struck me from a very young age.
I often find that as women, we tend to attribute a lot of our success to a fluke. I try to remember that while I absolutely would not be where I am today without a lot of help, and certainly some luck, it really comes down to my own determination and dedication.
What are the common challenges you've seen among female business owners and entrepreneurs?
I often find that as women we tend to attribute a lot of our success to a fluke. I am sometimes inclined to feel this way about my own life and career, and while I try to remember that I absolutely would not be where I am today without a lot of help, and certainly some luck, it really comes down to my own determination and dedication.
When you hit a bump or hurdle in your career, how do you find a new road and switch gears to find success?
I think that becoming a mother has given me a completely different perspective on the ups and downs that I face in my career. My personal life is a priority for me, so when I hit a bump in my career, I am reassured by the fact that that is not the be all, end all. I truly believe in visualizing what you want for your future, and eventually, you can get there.
Whose career really inspires you?
Any woman who has accomplished her dreams, through hard work and determination, while remaining true to herself and a good person.
What's next for Rose Inc. in 2019? What are you most excited for?
I'm excited to work with even more unique and inspirational people from across our industry, and share their stories with our readers. The beauty world is constantly evolving and in order to deliver the most thoughtful, and hopefully helpful, content, we will continue to seek out exciting new products, ideas, and innovators.

Doctors involved in the controversial PACE trial have lashed out, claiming they can't continue their work because of 'abuse' and 'trolling' from online activists. Yet, PACE findings left thousands of people in the UK who live with Myalgic encephalomyelitis, commonly referred to as ME, without access to effective treatment. What the establishment media failed to report, is that the findings of the PACE trial are flawed, at best.

Assessment 1
Case Study
Your task: Read the following letter and answer the questions below. Each question must be completed.
25A/ 368 Lexington Avenue
New York 10037
Dear Sir/Madam
My family and I have recently experienced a 5 day stay in your hotel. This was our first visit to Australia and a special treat for our teenage children. Unfortunately we have returned home very disappointed with our holiday. As a customer service manager myself, I feel it worth bringing to your attention some downfalls in your hotel operation.
Firstly, we had pre-booked a private transfer from the airport to your accommodation via your reservation department. Although I did not receive any written confirmation your employee Jane assured me via a telephone conversation that she would organise this. As we arrived after a tiring 20 hour flight this service was nowhere to be seen, instead we had to catch a taxi. To make matters worse, the driver had no idea where your hotel was located so we were driven via a considerably longer route to your establishment.
On arrival your two bellhops were stationed at their desk, but seemed to be more preoccupied with what I believe to be 'internet surfing' than helping us with our bags. They were slouched over the desk engrossed in whatever they were viewing on the computer screen. We consequently shifted our luggage in from the taxi ourselves.
The service in your reception area wasn't much better! The girl at first had trouble locating our reservation and then when she did she told us, rather abruptly, that we would have to wait another hour until our room would be ready. Although we did request an early arrival, and only arrived a little before the check in time of 1pm, I was surprised that allowances couldn't have been made considering we have travelled from such a far distance and were all extremely tired and jetlagged. At this time I also questioned the 'missing' airport transfer for which I was not given any apology, just told that it would be investigated. During my stay not one representative from your venue provided any explanation. To make matters worse the charge was still placed on my bill which I then had to dispute on departure. Further, I found the receptionist's attire to be less than desirable. Her uniform seemed to be stained, ill fitting and missing a button. Her hair was long and it hung over her face. She had multiple piercings in each ear. I would be interested to see your establishment's dress code.
The rest of the stay didn't improve. We had requested an early morning maid's service each day but on two occasions we arrived back to our room after 3pm and the rooms still hadn't been made up. Our 'included' breakfast caused confusion each morning, with the restaurant cashier having to verify this each day with the front desk. On one occasions we booked a table in your fine dining restaurant with a request for kosher provisions. We were told that this was no problem; however the chef in charge confused kosher with halal provisions on that occasion and our celebration dinner consisted of a selection of vegetables instead. Finally on our last day the requested wakeup call was not provided and consequently we had to skip breakfast and hasten our departure to catch our return flight.
This holiday to Australia was a complete disappointment. My wife and I had planned and saved for this trip a year in advance. It is unlikely now that we will ever return to Australia and I will ensure that if any of our friends do make the trip that they avoid your hotel accommodation and your entire chain of properties.

The colors in the carpet will be perceived differently depending on the angle you view it from.
Gholtogh Patina
Information about Gholtogh Patina carpet from Persia / Iran.
CarpetVista Patina is a series of carefully selected carpets. These carpets have a certain wear that does not reduce the impression of them, and is in fact part of their beautiful natural aging process. Common to these selected carpets is that they are at least 40 years old and have an elegance and harmony in both pattern and colour. We select them in order to preserve the great cultural heritage and to allow them to be discovered by a new generation.
All Patina carpets are washed, then thoroughly examined for any potential damage that might compromise the carpet's continued sustainability. If the pile is unevenly worn or if the surface layer of the pile is damaged this is carefully and gently polished down to give a beautiful smooth surface. The end result is the best of both worlds, a sustainable carpet which clearly perceives the majestic feeling that only an older carpet can reflect. You also get a beautiful carpet that will not only continue to increase in value, but that is moreover a pleasure to behold.
These older oriental carpets are unique works of art that deserve to be preserved and used by several generations to come.
Read more about restoration here...
This carpet is manufactured by Kurdish nomads, semi-nomads and settled members in the Zandjan district. The carpet has an equally high firm and dense quality as the classic Bidjar. The sturdy character is produced by beating the double weft thread hard.
The pile is made from virgin wool and the warp and weft from cotton.
