Your first hour with any tutor is always 100% refundable!
"Coming into college I was a little hesitant about being able to have a direct connection with the instructor and Luke made this happen with exceptional effort. . . . This class was one of my favorites my first term of college."—Student review from Fall 2011 (see additional document attached to this application). As this satisfied student notes, I hold myself and my students to the highest standards of excellence in education while still offering necessary individual attention and support. During my graduate classwork in Education, I developed techniques to present subjects like Latin grammar, which is often perceived as vapid and uninteresting, as something that is relevant and important to students. When I lectured at the University of Oregon, I was able to see my pedagogy play out successfully in the classroom, my gradebook, and most importantly, my students' essays.I have a Bachelor's degree in Classical Languages and English from the University of Nebraska in Lincoln and a Master's degree in English at the University of Oregon, where my program was ranked 8th in the nation upon admittance. I am a member of Phi Beta Kappa and graduated from my undergraduate university summa cum laude. During my study for my Masters degree, I took numerous Latin and Greek language courses (16 hours). I am also the recipient of the Miriam Starlin award ($5000) supporting translation of Vergil throughout the summer of my Masters degree.My lesson plans are dedicated to making Latin grammar relevant and fun to study! I do not focus on route chart memorization but rather use a range of teaching materials to develop translation skills and facility with grammar. The most important part with the study of Latin is to remember that you can read it and do well on exams! Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither is your Latin education. Don't give up! I can help you gain practical skills in Latin and overcome any areas that you may be struggling with.

The European Heart Network calls for a centralised CVD patients registry
April 28th 2011
The European Heart Network, together with the European Society of Cardiology call for a centralised, comprehensive European cardiovascular diseases registry to ensure effective service planning and quality of care for patients across the EU. This would provide an important and effective tool for a patient-centred health care in the future.

PR and communication is multi-layered. These posts are our take on what's going on in business, in the community, locally, nationally and internationally. It's about what's good practice and what can be done better. Let us know what you think.
LinkedIn has just put up a new facility, with chosen people trialling a thought-leadership blog facility.
Richard Branson's one of them, Deepak Chopra another and of course, Barack Obama. These are big names. They're 'important' people. They're leaders.
Leadership takes many forms. Conventional thinking says there's coercive, charismatic, and collaborative leadership. I think there's more to it than that. Many people are leaders even when they don't see themselves as leaders. They're the ones others come to for advice, who will speak up in the staff meetings to spell out thoughts others are reluctant to voice. They're the ones who provide the thinking, and who influence behind the scenes. They don't always have to be out there, on stage, in the public eye.
These are the important leaders, because they are the ones who are the 'power behind the throne.' They're also the ones who help make our communities what they are.
Why leadership is important in small business
So, why is leadership so important in our community? Of course, our obvious community leaders are our local government representatives (some of whom aren't leaders, but happen to have stood for election and got the votes.) But I'm thinking of those who own and run the companies that provide the backbone of our economy. And because it's so important to the economy, it's even more important there is great leadership.
So often, people start their business because they know how to do their job. They're good at it and they want to be their own boss. Then they expand - take on an apprentice perhaps, or additional sales staff, or partners. The business grows and develops.
Or, the entrepreneur has a grand idea that works - it takes off (think Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook).
Every business, large or small, needs great leadership if it's to be a success.
Some would say you're a leader if you've gone out and built a business. Not necessarily so. As I said before, many businesses are built because someone was a good plumber, lawyer, accountant or electrician. That they're good at their core role doesn't make them leaders. It makes them good plumbers, lawyers, accountants etc.
Being a good leader means you;
- Have a vision. You know where you want to go, what your business is going to be, and what it will stand for.
- Have a strategy. Having a vision is one thing, Knowing how you're going to achieve it is another. Big ideas remain big ideas if there's no strategy on how to make those ideas a reality.
- Have a plan. Visions and strategies don't happen unless you know what you're going to do to bring it all together.
- Know how to collaborate. It's fine having dreams and a vision but you need everyone to buy into the dream. Sharing your vision, allowing your associates and staff in on the deal and having their own input, can only enrich the big picture.
- Lead. Yes, I know, obvious if you're the leader. Actually, it's not that obvious to many. Being at the helm means being able to take charge and be decisive, setting the direction and most importantly, set the example to create the culture, to create the buy-in . . .
When the Government announced it would consult iwi over the question of water ownership, it was clear it was a sop to quieten the dissent to the sale of New Zealand's energy companies. So one has to ask, how valid is the description of consultation to this process?
When it comes to consulting with the community, it's a brave organisation (or complacent) that assumes the community will not see through a 'tick box' exercise designed to confirm what's already planned.
On Monday, we had the Deputy Prime Minister Bill English turn up at a hui with Tainui to discuss water ownership - and the chairs were mostly empty (11 adults, four kids). Whether you agree or disagree with this whole issue is irrelevant when it comes to good consultation. And right now the Government is displaying all the signs of complacency, comfortable in the knowledge it will do what it wants, regardless of community opinion.
The Government had decided it would call the shots on how it would consult with Maori over water ownership. It didn't ask, it instructed and expected Maori to be compliant and come along to be told what the Government plans. Bill English reckoned he was happy, and if Maori didn't want to show up, that was fine. Clearly, he wasn't about to ask what better way there could be to consult.
Ngati Tuwharetoa and Te Arawa leaders took a different approach today - they turned out in force at Taupo. This was because they want to engage directly with the Government over the issue. These two iwi have a different position to the others and therefore are taking a different approach to how they sort things out over the water ownership issue. But, it's clear Ngati Tuwharetoa and Te Arawa want consultation on their terms.
And that's the point the Government appears to have missed. To consult effectively, you need to find out the best way that will connect with the people you want to consult with. And, calling a few meetings consultation doesn't make it consultation if there's a pre-determined pathway and result.
I talked about this a couple of posts ago. The trouble is, the government seems to think it is inviolate. But just as poor process affects a company's reputation when they need to consult, so it affects a government - at the ballot box.
Riding roughshod over complete sectors of our community isn't going to win hearts and minds. It's divisive and damaging. A collaborative approach, involving the whole community, over this issue would be a far better and more constructive strategy.
Of course, politics will always get in the way, so convenience and political pragmatism wins out over good practice.
There's a peculiar attitude that seems to prevail in some organisations. That it's OK for managers, whether middle or senior, to take someone's work and alter it because they want to make their mark rather than add value.
Now, there are times when a document or project needs to change because priorities have changed, or facts are incorrect. That's a good thing to pick up on and ensure the end product is accurate and reflects the company's direction.
It's another story completely, when someone in a position of power takes a project, or a document, and makes inconsequential changes in order to leave their mark.
This speaks to an unhealthy internal culture. It leads to disempowerment and frustration as these interfering people (usually) take credit: "Without my input, this wouldn't be nearly as good...." is the unspoken message.
The cultures where this is allowed to happen are the ones where there is a lack of strong, inclusive leadership, which I touched on in an earlier post.
Leadership isn't just about the head honcho, although s/he sets the tone. A leader can be anyone, at any level. They're the ones who have the ability to inspire, to support others, empower others, know how to delegate and how to give credit. They also know that leaving others to get on with their jobs will in the end, be constructive, achieve the required goals and contribute positively to the organisation.
Those who seek to take credit for others' work, who diminish by interference, inserting themselves in every part of the process, are the ones who demonstrate they are not leaders, but in fact are exhibiting domineering behaviours.
Being a 'boss' is not necessarily being a leader. There are many who need to learn this.
I was interested in a story on Media Watch on Radio NZ discussing the role of journalists in the coverage of the Pike River mine explosion and the Canterbury earthquakes.
In particular, the interviewee discussed how, what was for some intrusive journalism in fact contributed constructively to telling the poignant stories that made up these events. This is what journalism is about - communicating the stories, background and facts that contribute to the headlines.
What I find disappointing is when communications people act as gatekeepers, particularly when there's a crisis. The job of communicators is to communicate. Sure, there's times when information can't be released for legal or privacy reasons, but overall, the job is to tell the story and working with journalists is an integral part of the job.
It's fairly obvious that if information doesn't come from us, as the organisation in strife, then someone else is going to fill the vacuum. Rumour takes pride of place and others' viewpoints and perspectives will lead.
So what to do:
- Lead with the news. Let journalists know as much as you can what the story is - don't make them work for it.
- Recognise that journalists will talk to others. Accept it.
- Don't allow vacuums to develop. Make sure your communications are aligned and that you're talking to all those people (stakeholders) you need to - internal and external.
- Make sure you facilitate media requirements - help them meet their deadlines (or risk being referenced as not available). Help TV set up their shots (ensuring it's appropriate to your circumstances), radio to get audio and print their photos (making sure it's right for your organisation).
- Understand that journalists have their job to do, just as you have yours. Make sure they understand your priorities too, and acknowledge theirs.
How often have you seen government and local government consult with communities, and you just 'know' they're consulting because they have to, and they've already made the decision?
Frustrating when you have what you believe is great input into something you care about. But, apparently, they don't care at all about what you might think. They just want to get on with the job.
I've seen great examples of community engagement and consultation. I've seen times too, when it's been a tick-box exercise, where the community's opinion is sought in order to meet legislative requirements, quiet any critics, feed them a sop and hope they go away.
Well, it's not only government that needs to think about engaging with the community. Businesses large and small operate in the community. What they do affects the people around them, as well as those who work with them and for them.
Mostly, when a company wants to do something that might affect the community, they take the decision, then implement it. Then, when the community comes out in an uproar because they don't like it, the company's surprised. Well doh . . . . those same people who made that decision are probably the same ones who groan and moan about the latest council decision they didn't know about till after the event.
Effective engagement with a community about an issue that affects them will help your business in many ways. For instance, it can reduce the number of appeals through the legal system, it can avoid negative publicity, and most of all, it can actually enhance your reputation and relationships with your communities
This is a little rant because I am tired of seeing Google ads promising the moon regarding media coverage. "We guarantee media coverage..." they claim. Yeah right. Unless it really is the first self-cleaning fabric, for example, or truly water-powered car, media coverage is not guaranteed. How can they promise media coverage when:
- Journalists aren't in control of what happens on the day (how many product and companies got coverage on 4 September 2010 and 22 February 2011 in New Zealand?).
- It depends on the bureau chief, news editor and editor as to what gets in and what doesn't.
- Sometimes, it just ain't news.
If a PR company only 'does' media, then they're not PR companies, they're media shops and that's quite legitimate and fine - that's what they choose to do. And if you're a prospective client, be suspicious of any 'guaranteed media placement.'
A full-service agency does corporate communication, often including investor relations, marketing communication, community relations (including engagement and consultation), and often, but not always, internal communication. And yes, media relations.
So, what can you expect?
- Your agency needs to understand your business and your industry. They won't know it all straight off and if they claim to, then be sceptical, because there's plenty that no-one can know unless they've worked closely with you for some time, to understand what's going on behind the scenes. But, they do need to have done their homework and researched your company, and the industry you're in.
- Expect to provide a full brief. This means you have to do your homework. Why do you want a PR agency? What do you want to achieve? If you just want media coverage, expect to be advised as to how realistic your expectations are. If you want support for your in-house communications department, be clear as to who will be doing what - do you want advice and strategy or do you want implementation support?
- What budget do you have? Most companies don't want to reveal their budget first off, because they worry the agency will maximise their work to fit, regardless of what's required. However, it's also unfair to expect an agency to put (costly) hours into a proposal that might well put you off because it goes beyond what you can afford.
- Any good PR and communications agency will let you know their pricing options - hourly, retainer, project-based.
- You can also expect to be told who will be working on your account. Don't be fooled by the 'stars' being trotted out to sparkle at the presentation, to have your work fobbed off to more junior staff. There's nothing wrong with junior staff working on your account, but you need to know who will be doing the work and who's responsible for what.
Having spent many years working with and for local government, I know about jargon. (I can almost hear your chorus of agreement!). It comes from the anonymous people behind the scenes and I have sat in many meetings embarrassed as councillors have debated important issues, clearly not understanding the jargon-ridden reports in front of them.
Corporate communications and documents can in their way be as bad, but government and NGOs, in my opinion, are the worst offenders. Why, I really don't know, because they are the ones which most need to connect with their audiences.
I've just completed a major plan for a client, and part of the brief was to tell their story and communicate their plan in lay language so the public could easily read and understand. This was a departure for them which public feedback told them was really welcomed.
Internal communication, too, should rely on lay language. So often I've heard of staff getting the wrong end of the stick because of unintelligible jargon.
Here's a 'memo' I composed for a LinkedIn discussion on this subject. Sadly, it's not too far from the truth for many organisations.
"I am confident that, at the end of the day, we will gain some quick wins through onboarding then socialising the concept of eliminating jargon. Going forward, we will all be on the same page – indeed singing from the same song sheet – and be thinking out of the box when it comes to the language we utilise in the C-suite. Initially, it will be similar to herding cats, and the process will identify the square pegs in the round holes, but we will achieve some upside and a paradigm shift as we reach out and break the silos through the use of intelligible language.
Or: "We're not using jargon from now on, so that everyone can communicate effectively."
That's what it's all about - effective communication both internally and externally. That's a basic requirement for effective public relations and communication in all its forms.
New Massey University research shows that while a high proportion of business owners have experienced a major crisis, there's still a high degree of business vulnerability. Even more disturbing, there's a lack of formal crisis and business continuity planning. There's also a high degree of variability in adaptive capability.
Predictably, of the 43 percent which had experienced a crisis in the past five years, 79 percent were in Canterbury and 39 percent in other parts of the country.
The very nature of crises means they are unexpected. They can be natural disasters, economic, key personnel loss (CEO and senior management team lost in an aircrash as happened to NZ Crop & Food), criminal actions of staff, IT (information hacked), or physical such as fire. And as News of the World and the Murdochs can testify, reputational crisis can bowl along at the most inconvenient times if you're not careful.
Business continuity is reliant on plants getting under way again, ensuring you have premises, that your IT systems are all backed up off site (and preferably out of region) and you have generators to keep power going. All of this is critical.But, one thing that is often overlooked is the element that is core to managing a crisis - communication.
Crisis communication is often thought of as letting those who need to know, what your crisis management plan is. That's just the start.
Crisis communication is about your response during the crisis, and planning for that response beforehand.
This means having your spokespeople prepared and able to front media. But it's not just about media and PR - your customers, suppliers, shareholders and other interested parties should all on an up-to-date, accessible database with all contact details (not just work). Your staff details are up to date (and their next of kin). You know who needs to know what and when. (This is what a fellow crisis manager says about what not to do in crisis communication)
But when it comes down to it, it is all about practice. The Massey research suggests "it is experience and learning in dealing with the consequences of a crisis which is important, rather than the formality of the planning process."
Now, it's a lot to ask that you risk losing your business to a crisis for the want of planning for a crisis. I don't mean a book that's stored away somewhere. I mean a plan that is practiced in real time through a wide variety of possibilities. Learning on the day is not good business - after all, you test your products before release don't you? You run trials and understand all the wrinkles. It's the same for a crisis plan.
What do you think? Is crisis planning over-rated? How probable do you think it is that your company will face a crisis? And what will you do if it does? Do you have a crisis plan?
Author and leadership guru Jim Collins says that 'level 5' leader are the ones who decide on who, then what. They facilitate, are participative and encourage others to produce the ideas for new directions. And while they're ambitious, they're also humble, recognising their own limitations and focus on the organisation rather than themselves.
They're the ones who can generate trust and tolerate, even encourage, dissent. They're straight talkers, are deliberate and don't seek out the spotlight. And, they expect performance from themselves and others.
With leaders such as this, encouraging participation naturally follows. And where you have active participation, you then have creativity and enthusiasm to achieve the goals. That, of course, leads to great morale.
So where is communication in this? Right at the heart. Effective internal communication is about encouraging people so they want to come to work every day, are inspired to achieve, feel valued and who end up being ambassadors for their organisation.
This means two-way communication to create openness, inclusion, transparency and mutual trust and respect. And this will entail:
• clarity of objectives
• clarity of feedback mechanisms
• clarity of consequences.
If any of these aren't clear then you'll have distrust. People will make their own assumptions and judgements and those won't always be what you want.
It's no coincidence that the communication attributes of a great leader just happen to be the attributes of excellence in internal communication:
■ Information and knowledge sharing (in a timely fashion)
If you want your staff to feel valued and included, then provide information about what's going on. Be generous and share your knowledge about issues that are affecting your company or organisation, so they're equally empowered to provide informed input into what you're trying to achieve. Be timely about it as well - don't wait until the media have broadcast your latest decisions - tell your staff first.
■ Openness
OK - we all know that there are some things you just can't share with the wider organisation. People understand that. But there's a heap that goes on - projects under way, new initiatives, decisions at senior management level - that can be shared. Let your staff in on it. There's little more damaging to staff morale than the feeling of being excluded. That old phrase of 'need to know' is one of the more destructive phrases I know of. Rather, think about why people shouldn't know what's going on. This can even be demonstrated in what are apparently small things like the folders on the 'N' drive - most organisations I know close these off from staff in other departments - why? HR and all folders relating to staff are obviously closed. But the default should be open.
■ Encouraging dialogue and exchange of ideas
It's an oldie, I know, but two heads really are better than one. Brainstorming is a horrible bit of jargon, but I don't know of a better one, and when it's done well, is great for coming up with creative solutions. But it's not always about the formal brainstorm session. It's about those ideas generated in the kitchen in casual conversations, a discussion begun in the lift and finished over coffee in the cafe. Encourage constructive conversation. Some of my best initiatives have come out of casual sessions 'shooting the breeze' for five minutes in the corridor.
■ Nurturing and recognising creativity
Creativity can be nurtured or nullified equally easily. One of my most difficult battles was to introduce some creativity in developing a major corporate document, in its content, its design and its communication. That document was subsequently recognised as being a benchmark. But it was a hard road and difficult not to lose heart and give up. When you recognise and nurture your staff's creativity, you'll open the way to them contributing meaningfully to your organisation's growth and development and who doesn't want that?
■ Understanding that transmitting facts and information is not necessarily effective communication
Providing people with fact lists and information is a sure way to lose their interest. You want people to be interested in what you're saying, right? Then find out what makes them tick, find out what they want you to know, and find out what they want to hear and how they want to hear it. Communication is way more than facts and info. It's about conversations and stories - yours and theirs.
Professor Sir Paul Callaghan was a giant in New Zealand's science and innovation field. But more than that, he was a man who was able to, not only make a huge contribution to New Zealand and the world through his science, he understood how to bring it to life for the rest of us. He was a gifted communicator who made science real, revealing why it holds so much fascination for those who practice it.
I remember well listening to his conversations with Kim Hill on National Radio, gaining some understanding of what he was on about; the excitement of new discoveries.
Sir Paul clearly had a towering intellect. But he was accessible and made science accessible through communication. There's not many we can say that about in the science world, which does have a challenge in communicating its work to the rest of us lay people.
As Victoria University vice-chancellor Professor Pat Walsh said:
"He demonstrated, to use his own words: 'Not just that science is interesting and a relevant part of our lives, but that it can actually make a tremendous difference to the potential of this country'."
Communication is about knowing how to touch others, how to explain the seemingly inexplicable; to pull the threads together into something everyone can understand. Sir Paul did this.
He had great gifts, and New Zealand is the richer for it. Hopefully others will pick up where he left off, and continue his legacy, his optimism and appreciation of New Zealand's capabilities and where they can take us as a country.

by ChloBear Dec 30, '12I am planning to start looking for a new job soon and I'm wondering how hard it is for nurses with 1-2 years experience in Chicago? It took me over a year to find my first nursing job and I'm wondering if it will be any easier the second time around? Or is it just as hard? I don't want to go through that again, but I'm pretty unhappy at my current job and can't wait to get out. I am currently a full-time staff RN on a labor and delivery unit with a BSN. I am not limiting my search to traditional bedside positions. In fact, I may even prefer something in the community, even if it's less money that I am currently making. I will look for both full and part time positions in women's health in either the hospital or community setting. Thanks in advance!

Belief in oneself and the notion that anything is possible are the themes of ArtsPower's new musical, "The Little Engine That Could Earns Her Whistle," based on the beloved children's classic. This show comes to Mercer County Community College's Kelsey Theatre on Saturday, Jan. 26, with performances at 2 and 4 p.m. Kelsey Theatre is located on the college's West Windsor campus, 1200 Old Trenton Road.
At the Piney Vale Train Station, the overbearing Silver Engine keeps things running efficiently and always on time. Silver has no patience for Little Blue, who - to everyone but dependable old Rusty - seems far too small to pull the Piney Vale Express. But when Blue's friend, Little Red, hurts her wheel, it's time for Little Blue to step up and prove to Silver Engine that she can do the job just as well as all the other engines.
Based on the book by Watty Piper, this show features a dynamic Broadway-style score and colorful, inventive sets and costumes as it teaches children that, like the Little Blue Engine, they too can find a way to conquer their fears and demonstrate the extraordinary strength that comes with the "I think I can!" attitude.
Founded in 1985 by identical twins Mark and Gary Blackman, ArtsPower is based in Verona, N.J., and is the second largest company in the nation to provide professional Equity theater for young and family audiences.
Tickets are $10 for all ages and may be purchased online at www.kelseytheatre.net or by calling the Kelsey Box Office at 609-570-3333. Kelsey Theatre is wheelchair accessible and free parking is available next to the theater.

more father's day things- and being a bit shangry!
Posted by resonanteye on 04/07/2012
Somehow paypal decided I still lived at an address I haven't used in two years, and sent a few things there. Normally this wouldn't be any problem, as people usually just write "not at this address" on stuff and put it back into a mailbox.
Strangely enough, these people have decided to keep my things. Which means I have to fill out a ton of forms to send the angry USPS workers after them- and possibly the police. I hate that! Why would people not be…normal?
I mean, what they stole was my goatse gnome! Of all things.
I can only imagine what they were thinking when they greedily opened someone else's package…
Anyway, here are a few more father's day paintings. I'm sort of on a kick with these, as you can tell. They're up for sale at my painting shop, if you like them, or just want a link to them to share around (hint, hint)
Wish me luck repossessing my gnome!

WACO, Texas (AP) - Wearing a medical mask over his mouth and nose, Pfc. Naser Jason Abdo listened Tuesday as prosecutors began detailing his plot to kill Fort Hood soldiers by bombing a Chinese food buffet and shooting any survivors.
An FBI agent testified that Abdo, a Muslim, admitted to buying a pressure cooker, gun powder and other materials that one would need to build an explosive device. According to the agent, Abdo wanted to bomb the restaurant during lunch hour when Fort Hood soldiers would be inside. He considered it his duty as a Muslim to avenge the actions of his unit while in Afghanistan.
He was stopped just hours before completing assembly of a bomb, prosecutors said during opening statements Tuesday at his federal trial.
After Abdo was arrested at a motel near the Texas Army post in July, police found the components for an explosive device in his room and backpack, showing he "intended to commit mass murder," prosecutor Gregg Sofer said.
Abdo, 22, faces up to life in prison if convicted of attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction and five other charges.
But lead defense attorney Zach Boyd countered in U.S. District Court in Waco that no bomb was ever built, and the government is "not going to be able to get around that fact." His defense team countered in the opening argument that purchasing such materials are not a crime, and it would be up to the prosecutors to prove beyond reasonable doubt that Abdo intended to follow through with the plot.
Abdo was absent-without-leave from Fort Campbell, Ky., when he was arrested in Killeen. He told investigators he went to Texas to "martyr himself" for the people of Iraq and Afghanistan, said FBI special agent C. Michael Owens, the first prosecution witness.
Owens testified that Abdo told investigators he planned to put a bomb in what looked like a gift box, leave it a Chinese buffet frequented by Fort Hood soldiers, wait outside and shoot any survivors.
But he was headed for South Texas and not the Fort Hood area when he went AWOL. He said he stayed in several cities — paying for motel rooms and food with cash or gift cards so he couldn't be tracked. And when he couldn't get to his destination by taxi, Abdo said, he looked at a map and recognized Killeen because of the news reports after the 2009 Fort Hood shooting rampage in which a Muslim soldier is charged, Owens said.
"He said he wanted to give faith to brother Nidal ... and said 'People think he's crazy, but he's not crazy and I came here to remind the people,'" Owens testified.
Other witnesses on the first day of testimony inside the federal courthouse included a Tennessee gun store employee who refused to sell Abdo a gun due to suspicious behavior and questions he was asking about the firearms and black gun powder. She testified that she called Fort Campbell to report the incident after Abdo became angry with her and left the store.
Fort Campbell officers testifed after receiving the phone call, they could not locate Abdo and AWOL papers were filled out. He had not been seen since the July 4 weekend.
Another witness testified to seeing Abdo dump gloves, a shovel and body bags in a dumpster outside a truck wash near Fort Campbell.
Surveillance video of Abdo buying a pressure cooker and other bomb-making materials at a Plano, Texas Wal-Mart was shown to the jury.
U.S. Marshals escorting Abdo in and out of court Tuesday wore protective glasses due to a recent incident when they say Abdo bit his lip until it started bleeding and then spit blood in a Marshal's face.
The judge ordered the glasses be taken off when the jury was present in the courtroom.
Reference to Maj. Nidal Hasan
Abdo was referring to Maj. Nidal Hasan, the Army psychiatrist charged in the shootings that killed 13 and wounded more than two dozen. Hasan faces the death penalty if convicted at his military trial, set to start in August.
Abdo said he didn't plan an attack inside Fort Hood because he didn't believe he would be able to get through security at the gates, Owens said. But Abdo said he bought a military uniform at a local store because it was necessary to fit into the community, Owens testified.
Killeen police began investigating Abdo on July 26 after a gun store employee reported a young man bought 6 pounds of smokeless gunpowder, shotgun ammunition and a magazine for a semiautomatic pistol, while seeming to know little about his purchases, according to previous court testimony and documents. Officers also learned that he bought a U.S. Army uniform and a "Smith" name patch from another store but didn't know his unit. He was detained at the motel July 27.
Police in Oak Grove, Ky., near Fort Campbell, also reported finding a shovel, two large bleach containers, body bags and a digital camera in a trash bin outside a truck stop.
Oak Grove police Sgt. Victor Lynch told jurors Tuesday that "his heart was racing" and he thought someone was in danger when he saw those items. Lynch found Abdo's car at a nearby restaurant, where

This is my second order for Phycox, which my vet recommended. Both of my dogs are doing much better. My large dog, Leia, a black lab/chow mix, was stiff and moving around slowly, but is now very exuberant and active. My small dog, Thumper, a small (19 lb.) Pom/Aussie/Keshond mix, could not jump into the bed anymore but now he springs onto the back of the couch and upon the bed with flying leaps. Both of them loved the sample of Lickety Stiks too. Thank you
I have a 12-year-old rat terrier that I adopted from our local county shelter last year. She had quite a few health issues, including arthritis. My vet put her on a prescription anti-inflammatory, and Phycox soft chews. Her mobility is much improved, and she loves the Phycox chews! I recommend this supplement.

"Roll up your problems, lick your solutions, burn your past, inhale the good shit and exhale the bullshit."
Hey Guys, It has been a though couple of weeks. But of we all know after the storm the sun comes out, as well. So happy to being able to share this with you. Had a really nice week last weak.
My cousin come down to visit me so we went to this concert of an american band called 'Walk the Moon. What a sexy name isn't it? They were singing really well. And had the pleasure to meet them back-stage.Funny thing is that they actually more appreciated from fans in UK. So had to fight with a number of teenage girls to get an autograph from them. But I think it was worth it.
As is winter and still cold not had time to go out that much so except work and home not had that many outfits that I can show you guys. But I made a change, I change the colour of my hair (what girls do when they feel there is time for a massive transformation)
At the begging I was not that pleased with the whole change. But now I am actually glad I did. I hope you like it as well. What you think of the Change?
HAVE YOU HEARD OF WALK THE MOON? HAVE YOU HEARD THE SONG ANNA SUN! Worth listening to it.
Kind regards,

Allardyce To Face FA Charge
"In our point of view the major decisions have gone the wrong way. I don't want the officials taking away what we are striving for and I thought the officials tried to do that today, which was a shame."
The problem lies in Allardyce claiming that the officials "tried" to disadvantage West Ham in the game. Now that is a very serious charge indeed. It's one thing to say they got it wrong - and most agree that they had a bad game - but it is quite another to suggest that the "errors" were by design. That is an allegation of cheating and that should land Allardyce in very deep water indeed.

You want that to happen don't you HF? - 15 February 2012 10:32

I have written to the FA to make an official complaint. Can you imagine Greenwood or Lyall accusing a referee of cheating?
- 15 February 2012 10:49
Looking at some of the decisions made by referees over the past couple of seasons it is difficult to accept that they were all decisions made in error and not by design. Lets face it big money is involved not only with club success but also betting,if big Sam thinks the decisions were "bent" what is wrong about him expressing this? surely it is better than keeping quiet about it.
- 15 February 2012 10:57
Anony-mouse says
You're sounding like a broken record again HF. You need to look at yourself and ask yourself why you want bad things to happen to the manager, and as a consequence to West ham.
BFS is doing a sound job, just the one that he was brought in to do. And you hate it don't you? Rather than us going up, you'd prefer that we were mid-table so that your unchanging, unyielding view of Allardyce would be proved right. No need for you to answer that btw: the answers clear already.
And I don't have to imagine Johnny Lyall going apoplectic about a referee's performance. I was at Wembley when Clive Thomas cheated us in the League Cup Final and Lyall went bolo. And how we loved him for it. - 15 February 2012 11:07
- Hammersfan said...
There's a huge problem with that John as I am sure you realise. If Allardyce genuinely feels that is the case, he should put his concerns into writing to the FA and invite an investigation. By ranting to the press in this way, he encourages people to think there is corruption in the game - and that brings the entire game into disrepute.
- 15 February 2012 11:10
- planetman said...
WTF? Do you write official letters of complaint to the FA when any manager steps ever so slightly out of line HF? Or have you completely lost the plot? I thought HF stood for Hammersfan. I know you like making provocative posts, and I have found your blog to be entertaining, but take your head out your arse mate, for heavens sake!
- 15 February 2012 11:21

I was joking planetman. It waas in response to the silly comment made by Anony-mouse.
- 15 February 2012 11:22
What a misleading link, he hasn't been charged at all
HF you're an utter clown and an embarrassment to West Ham's real supporters
Grow up - 15 February 2012 11:22
- Hammersfan said...
It sats "To face" not faces. Accuse me of being two faced if you like, but the headline does not say "Charged". I expect a charge.
- 15 February 2012 12:36
If he 'encourages' people to think there's 'corruption' in the game by his comments, then I just think he has 'inside' knowledge about that 'corruption', seeing as he's been in fotball for so long. As for formal complaints to the FA, why complain to that bunch of backscratching blazer boys ? Good for you Sam !!
- 15 February 2012 14:05
"and that should land Allardyce in very deep water indeed" Yippeeee you must be over the moon! I can hear you salivation from here you pervert.

first thing Allardyce has done that I'm pleased about Still won't pay to watch the dross Come on Di Canio come home and make West Ham a proper football club again
- 15 February 2012 15:59
Well done Sam! We should congratulate him for having the courage to tell the truth and put himself on the line for the team. What is the matter with you HF? Are you really a West Ham supporter?
- 15 February 2012 16:41

morrision charged by FA for 'gay' slur .. unbelieveable - 15 February 2012 17:14
Don't analyse it. The problem is you. Full stop. Sam has been fantastic and has my total admiration as a West Ham fan. Well done Big Sam.
Maybe I don't like his tactics or his style of play but I can't fault Sam for speaking out for us and finally letting the officials know what we think of them and their decisions against us. I can't believe you are criticizing rather than praising him for it. Mind boggling!!! - 15 February 2012 17:16
Anony-Mouse (11:07)
Excellent response which mirrors my thoughts.
Yes, John Lyall did get reported to the FA for his remonstrations with Clive Thomas after the 1981 Wembley final.
Perhaps HF should change his blog name along the same lines as your own? How about "Annoyed-Rat"? - 15 February 2012 21:05
- Hammersfan said...
Sammy Lee did duck under the ball and we was robbed. But I don't remember Lyall calling Thomas a cheat. Thomas got it wrong, based around the "interfering with play" rule. Of course, as the offside rule is now interpreted, the goal would have stood. Anyway, words to the ref are one thing, words to the press about the ref is something else.
- 15 February 2012 22:33
Woww, i thought he only hated QPR ,looks like he even hates his own team.
- 15 February 2012 22:43
Anony-mouse said
Cheers 21.05- I didn't think I was going mad re: Johnny Lyall. I can still remember a picture of him at Wembley looking absolutely livid. Googled it earlier just to make sure and a KUMB article said that in his match report to the FA Thomas reported that Lyall had called him a cheat. And who could blame Lyall for that. Goals like the one Thomas gave that day were never allowed to stand back then. He was an arrogant showman who seemed to deliberately make perverse decisions just to court publicity. He was famous for it.
HF- Two things. If you are going to bring up the names of greats then at least make sure you know what you are talking about. And I love the last sentence of your 22.33 post- its the very definition of churlishness. - 15 February 2012 23:07
- Hammersfan said...
I'll dig out my John Lyall autobiograpy "Just Like My Dreams" and see what he says about it. Note though, no quote from Lyall to the press!
- 15 February 2012 23:50
Yes - i still remember that day at Wembley and Ray Stewart's last minute penalty.
John Lyall was livid with the ref that day. I can't see what difference it makes who he told. It became public knowledge and was highlighted in the media/on tv at the time. He said what he thought just like BS did yesterday, Good for them.
Mind you BS's explanation of "hand to chest" looks a bit dodgy today. At the match I suspected it was a hand to the head which seems to be confirmed by the photo in the Times today. Never mind it was a good try in the Ferguson/Wenger style. - 16 February 2012 00:27
14:32 yes I've always thought him a pervert that gets some sort of sexual gratification from his antics on this blog.... it can be the only explanation for his bizarre and warped behaviour.

GOP demands major industry voice on federal gas 'fracking' panel
House Republicans are using Energy Department spending legislation to demand substantial industry representation on a federal advisory panel reviewing the controversial natural-gas extraction method called hydraulic fracturing.
Report language accompanying the fiscal 2012 spending plan a House committee approved Wednesday calls for changes in the panel advising the Energy Department on the method — dubbed "fracking" — that's enabling a natural-gas boom but bringing fears of groundwater pollution along with it.
"The committee is concerned that the selected panel members will not adequately represent industry perspectives, and therefore will not foster a spirit of partnership among industry, environmental and governmental parties," states the report of House Appropriations Committee views.
"In order to strengthen these partnerships and industry support for any subsequent recommendations, no less than one-third of panel members should be industry representatives who actively work in the natural-gas industry," it adds.
The report language underscores industry and GOP concern about potential new regulations hindering natural-gas development.
A new panel of the existing Secretary of Energy Advisory Board recently began a review that will lead to recommendations on improving the "safety and environmental performance" of fracking.
The technique involves high-pressure injections of water, chemicals and sand into
rock formations, which opens cracks that enable trapped gas to flow.
The panel is headed by John Deutch, the MIT professor who was a top Energy Department official in the Carter administration and CIA director in the Clinton administration. A full list of members is here.
The committee on Wednesday rejected a Democratic amendment — sponsored by Reps. Maurice Hinchey (D-N.Y.) and Nita Lowey (D-N.Y.) — that would have struck the report language.
"It is outrageous that the Republican majority opposed our common-sense effort to ensure members of federal advisory boards are unbiased and without conflicts of interest," Lowey said in a statement.
"Allowing the shale gas industry to put a thumb on the scale of this board makes it more likely that the decisions it makes will focus more on profits and less on the safety of our water sources, Americans' health and environmental preservation," she said.
The Environmental Protection Agency is already studying the impact of fracking on groundwater and drinking water.

Handle XML with namespaces
1I faced an issue while working with an xml file in Flash. I was unable to parse the xml data using the normal E4X syntax such as xml.node1.node2. It would give an error. The only thing different about this particular xml is that it has a lot of namespaces declared in it. After going through the documentation I found out a way to handle this issue. Let's consider the following code:
var xml:XML = <Workbook xmlns:c="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:component:spreadsheet" xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40" xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet" xmlns:x2="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/excel/2003/xml" xmlns:ss="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet" xmlns:x="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel"> <ss:Worksheet ss:Name="Sheet1"> <Table ss:StyleID="ta1"> <Row ss:AutoFitHeight="0" ss:Height="13.4064"> <Cell> <Data ss:Type="String">Preview</Data> </Cell> <Cell> <Data ss:Type="String">unicode</Data> </Cell> <Cell> <Data ss:Type="String">htmlcode</Data> </Cell> <Cell> <Data ss:Type="String">htmlalt</Data> </Cell> <Cell> <Data ss:Type="String">utfcode</Data> </Cell> <Cell> <Data ss:Type="String">utfalt</Data> </Cell> </Row> </Table> </ss:Worksheet> </Workbook>
Forecast on websphere: Flex or Silverlight or AJAX or JavaFX ?
1Lately I had some interesting conversations with few of my developer friends regarding their opinions on which technology will rule the Rich Application Interfaces websites in the future. My strong believe is that there's room for all four of these as per my experience and actual trends. More over, all these will have a separate slice of the market but overlap at only few areas. Let's take AJAX as example – it is widely popular for creating rich user experience community building apps, portals, mash-ups and so on. On the other hand, Flex is used more for multimedia rich requirements, interactive maps for example, photo albums, portfolios, games etc. Another technology, Silverlight, is a direct competition to Flex, but its presence is more dominant in the Enterprise applications market.
Adobe's Flex has a big advantage of running on the Flash platform, inheriting a very wide reach on the internet and having also an integrated support from other Adobe products, like Photoshop, After Effects, Fireworks, Flash, Illustrator. Also some near future upcoming products – Catalyst, Thermo, Cocomo, and more will be closely integrated with the legacy platform. All these are reliable, proven technology in web industry, being leading tools for creating visually rich media, no matter that is composed from images, animations or videos. Besides all, the new AIR version brings even more value by having a desktop version of an app that is integrated with the online one. (more…)
Interconnecting Flex modules
0Adobe Flex 3 has a very interesting component : LocalConnection. The idea behind is that the modules (which runs on client side) might change some data. The exchanged data is not limited at all to simple forms, but can be from a simple String to a XML or Arrays.
Few things must be known from the start, but as any technology, only after you learn it everything becomes easy.
- First of all, the communication can be restrained to a certain domain, let's say by example www.radupoenaru.com .
- You can't have bidirectional communication from a single LocalConnection. One module acts as a server and another one as a client.
- Server module opens a connection to which client connects. If the client loads but the server don't, then an error occurs in client module.
- Be very careful to the name of the procedure called by server – should be the same in server as in client module. (more…)
Flex 3 debugging && Nod32 != Love
0While working at Fraunhofer FIT, I had few small projects to develop internal modules for extending the interaction between researchers. The technologies were set from the start to Flex 3 and ActionScript.
As starter in Flex, but not ActionScript, I was quite anxious to begin coding in this interesting tool. But after I created my new Workspace (seems that now everyone creates its own paradigm for Project) and wrote some code, I hit a wall: the Flex IDE debugger interface raised an error that he couldn't connect to the Flash debugger:
Working in Fraunhofer Institute of Technology
2Starting today, I work as a Student Helper in Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Information Technology. The branch from Sankt Augustin, which I joined, is focused on the research of human-centered computing in a process context. I will activate in the Cooperation and Community Support department, which deals with the research and development of community portals, (mobile) communities and cooperation, Internet-based groupware, cooperative knowledge management, application service providing for cooperative work and virtual teams, rating and recommender systems and cooperative learning environments.
The head of the department is Prof. Wolfgang Prinz, PhD and I will work closely with Mr. Nils Jeners, researcher in FIT. I had the pleasure of attending Mr. Prinz course, CSCW and Groupware, while being student in the Media Informatics Master, held by RWTH Aachen University. CSCW stands for Computer Supported Collaborative Work.
My first task is to study the Twitter community, applications based on it and the actual phenomena. My work should help in better understanding the aspects of human behavior, social interaction between humans and in particular the tools and services used for microblogging. This will allow also to discover ways to extract patterns in the context of this technology, who is changing the ways that people interact and socialize over the Internet.

The following Graphs illustrate that most years the vast majority of our Buy our Strong Buy rated stocks were up in price. Click the links to each year to see the names of all the individual stocks, nothing is hidden from you! In the following Graphs, each bar represents one Stock. The Stock's rating as at the start of the year is shown. The bars to the right indicate stocks that are up in price. Bars to the left are stocks that have declined. Here is the graph for 2012. It was an excellent year for us and we batted 88% correct. Here is the graph for 2011. Although we beat the market it was not a great year and only 40% of our stock picks rose in price. Counting one Sell which did fall in price we batted 43% correct overall. Here is the graph for 2010 which was a good year and 81% of our Buys rose in price. Counting the two Sells which rose in price we batted 74% overall. Here is the graph for 2009 which was an exceptionally good year for us Here is the graph for 2008: (We suffered badly in the market crash of 2008) Graph for 2007, (here we batted only 42% correct, a weak year for us, although the higher-rated stocks generally did well, it was lower rated buys that did badly) Graph for 2006 (Here we batted 83% correct on the Buys and 76% correct Overall) Graph for 2005 (Here we batted 83% correct on the Buys and 71% overall) (Click the link above to see the names of all the individual stocks) Graph for 2004 (we batted 92% correct on the buys and 86% correct overall) Graph for "2002" (we batted 45% correct on the buys and 50% correct overall) Graph for year "2001" (we batted 69% correct on the buys and 73% correct overall) Graph for "Year 2000" (we batted 75% correct on the buys and 71% correct overall) Past performance is no guarantee of future performance nor is it necessarily in any way indicative of future performance. Measuring performance is somewhat difficult given that a stock originally rated a Strong Buy may later change to a weak buy or even occasionally to a sell. We have attempted to show performance in the most honest and transparent fashion possible. Year 2000 performance includes only all those stocks that had an active rating as of January 1, 2000. Year 2000 performance shows the changes in price from the rating that was made closest to but not later than January 1, 2000 through to the rating made closest to but prior to December 31, 2000. (Stocks which were no longer covered were priced through to December 31, 2000. It is fair to use the stock price on the day it was rated rather than using the exact calendar year. So, year 2000 performance is not exactly calendar 2000 but it is reasonably close. The same process was followed for 2001, the beginning price for 2001 is the ending price used for 2000. Again, for 2002, the beginning price is the ending price from 2001. Beginning in 2002 there are a few U.S. currency stock picks. The performance figures generally exclude the impact of currency (U.S. dollar exchange rate changes) except in the editor's personal portfolio currency impact is embedded in the results and in the Model Portfolio, the currency impact is included. For 2003 we reviewed all the Stock Picks at December 31, 2002 to insure that the ratings were still valid and updated any that were not. This insured that for 2003, our analysis year coincides exactly with the calendar year, which was not the case in previous years, as explained above. Similarly for 2004 and each year after that.

Responsible for the creation of the LEED green building certification program, the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) applied its own LEED standards to the completion of its new Washington D.C. digs: a two-story, 75,000-square-foot office space that earned 94 of the 110 possible points; 14 more points than the 80 required for Platinum certification.
Helping the agency go beyond its own green standards is a Crestron A/V and lighting control system, which was designed and integrated by Audio Video Systems, Inc. In keeping with LEED goals, the integration firm used Energy Star-compliant products where possible and engaged the Crestron system to automate power management when an Energy Star product was not available. In all, the installation covers one large and two medium-sized divisible conference rooms, the lobby, game room and café on the first floor, while a small conference and medium-size, divisible conference room on the second floor have also been integrated. All of the rooms have a local, networked A/V control system powered by Crestron's RoomView asset management software that monitors and automates the shutdown of systems after normal working hours.
Four GLS-ODT-C-2000 low-profile ceiling mount occupancy sensors in the first floor's two medium conference rooms detect when the spaces are occupied, with advanced motion sensing for control of lighting, climate control and other devices in the space. Four GLS-LOL photocell sensors continually monitor daylight movement to dim or switch lights off when sufficient natural light is available.
Connectivity to the motion sensors detect occupants and prevent the shutdown of a display while a room is in use and to shut down systems automatically after a preset interval of no activity within the room. When video sources are connected and powered on, the system for that room automatically turns on to route the device output to the displays. Once the device is disconnected or turned off, the displays and related equipment are automatically shut down to conserve power.
Control of the medium-size, divisible conference rooms is via 12-button keypads, 52-inch LCD

Calm and capers for couples in Menorca
Cala Galdana on the island of Menorca.
On the surface, Menorca seems like a good place to spend a few days relaxing on the beach with a book.
But actually, this small island, the quieter sister of its Balearic neighbour Mallorca, has so much more to offer than lazy days building sandcastles.
Venture away from your hotel or villa and you discover a mesmerising world of unspoiled white beaches, panoramic vistas, rich history and mouth-watering local delicacies.
Our base is the tranquil resort of S'Algar: situated on a sleepy bay just to the south east of the bustling capital of Mahon, which imbues an immediate feeling of relaxation on weary travellers.
Although families love Menorca, it's an attractive destination for couples, too. Our hotel, the four-star Hotel S'Algar, is in the Thomas Cook Style Collection, which means a lower age limit for guests of 16; that makes life a bit quieter in the pool during the day, and dinner time is calm and relaxed too.
Our hotel room looks out at one of the island's six black-and-white painted lighthouses which guard the bay at night, while by day the turquoise sea glimmers resplendently in the sun.
A short jaunt in sandals along the coastline takes us to the unspoilt beach of Cala d'Alcaufar, where tiny boats bob in the water between steep cliffs and sunbathers stretch out or enjoy a cana or glass of sangria at the nearby beach bar.
In search of adventure, we trek north from S'Algar towards the island's modern capital, Mahon, and its busy harbour.
Strolling down the promenade, we admire the array of cruise ships and private boats moored in the mouth of Menorca's busiest bay.
Hundreds of Catalonians arrive here daily in search of sun, following an eight-and-a-half hour ferry ride from Barcelona, and we soon slip into the throng to soak up the atmosphere.
Seafood is the speciality of the day in the many fine restaurants that line the harbour. Waiters proudly serve up bacalla, a dried and salted cod dish, while we sup xoriguer gin with lemon, produced using the plentiful juniper berries of the region.
If you make the trip to Mahon, it's essential to call in at the beautiful old port of Es Castell, just two miles to the east.
Founded as Georgetown by the invading British in 1771, the Catalan name of Es Castell (The Castle) reflects the presence of the large fort of St. Philip's Castle which guards the harbour.
But nowadays the town allows you to let your guard down, and we amble along the water's edge, enjoying another bite of the famous local fish dishes - this time merluza (hake) is on the menu - as well as picking out some pieces of fine locally-crafted jewellery.
Legend has it that Lord Nelson conducted his affair with Lady Hamilton at The Golden Manor on the north side of town, and romance still lingers over the bay, as the moon shines serenely across the water at night.
We catch a glimpse of Menorca's military history as we gaze out to the bay's headland, La Mola, where the magnificent Fortress of Isabel II dominates the skyline, presenting a fine example of mid-18th century Spanish architecture.
The open road snakes up the east coast past Es Grau (The Step). This tiny village boasts a stretch of beach so beautiful that the yearly population of 167 swells to the several thousand during the summer months.
A secluded strip of white sand frames one of the most precious areas of natural beauty the island has to offer, the Parc Natural de S'Albufera des Grau.
The largest wetland area in the Balearics is home to more than 10,000 species of animal all year round.
North of the nature reserve lies Fornells, where we hoped to make a royal appointment.
King Juan Carlos of Spain famously weighs anchor at this former fishing village, where he dines on caldereta de langosta, a lobster soup exclusive to this part of the island.
Indeed the Spanish monarch has been known to enjoy his soup so much that, rumour has it, he treats all present in the restaurant at the time to a bowl, at an estimated cost of 75 per head.
Sadly, the king's yacht is not moored to its jetty when we arrive, but nevertheless we unwind by absorbing the stunning views over Fornells Bay and its high surrounding hills.
Restaurants spill out onto terrazas on the charming town squares. Notably, the village is styled in Catalan terracotta colours rather than the uniform whitewash of the south.
Back on the road, we pass Monte Toro, the island's highest point at just 1,175 ft above sea level.
The kestrel, or xoric in Catalan, circle the summit, which offers a spectacular panoramic view of the island.
You might even fool your family and friends into thinking you had visited Rio de Janeiro as 'El Toro' boasts its very own Cristo Redentor statue.
Soon, we near Ciutadella, the cliffs of Mallorca clearly visible 22 miles to the west across the Mediterranean.
The former capital of Menorca until the British moved to Mahon in 1722, Ciutadella retains a Catalan look and atmosphere, with winding cobbled streets leading you to an imposing cathedral in the town centre.
The Turks invaded in 1558, capturing 3,000 Ciutadella dwellers, and the Arab influence remains in the shape of the Ses Voltes, a covered walkway which joins the Gothic cathedral to the main square, the Placa Nova.
Next, we head inland, passing through the old iron mongering town of Ferreries on our way to see the famous stallions of Son Martorellet.
In the hills above the stunning Santa Galdana bay, pure-bred stallions are schooled in the ancient art of Menorcan dressage.
We enjoy the chance to meet the horses up close before their proud riders treated us to a spectacular show, where three stallions danced in a tightly choreographed routine.
Our trip to the south coast would not be complete without taking in the breath-taking miradores, two panoramic views across the Mediterranean from an exclusive enclave of villas above Cala Galdana.
After, we return to the south east to call in at Cala'n Porter and see its legendary Cova d'en Xoroi.
This labyrinthine network of natural caves offers an unparalleled window to the sea. As we work our way through the ancient tunnels, we marvel as the caves suddenly yawn onto the sparkling sea.
With cocktails in hand, we sit and gaze out towards the sunset, before dancing the night away with locals and tourists in truly magnificent and unforgettable surroundings.
Key facts: Menorca
:: Best for: Endlessly discovering secluded beaches and areas of natural beauty.
:: Time to go: Early September. Sunny, cloudless skies by day and cool, tranquil nights.

When school lets out for the summer, thousands of children lose access to free and low-cost school breakfast and lunch. While free meals are available to all children over the summer at sites citywide — including schools, parks, pools, community centers and libraries — through the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP, also known as Summer Meals), too many families do not access it. To increase awareness and participation in Summer Meals, the Food Bank partners with the Department of Education's Office of SchoolFood to engage our citywide network of approximately 1,000 community-based member programs.
The loss of access to school meals is evident at many food pantries and soup kitchens, where participation among children rises once school lets out. To combat increased summertime need, the Food Bank recruits soup kitchens and food pantries to distribute Summer Meals to children at their sites. Food Bank assists participating food assistance programs with community outreach and activities to promote participation, and facilitates implementation. In addition, Food Bank supplies information about SFSP, and the locations of SFSP sites to our network of food assistance programs, sparking a vast outreach effort within New York City's low-income neighborhoods.
